First I wanna say THANKS!!! I'm really happy that I am getting reviews! Yay! Thankyou! Whooo Hooo!!! LoL
You may or may not find this interesting...Kagome, being exposed to a new inviroment, will discover untapped abilities she never knew she had as a Miko...being exposed to all this magic and all...just thought it nice to give you a heads up...not sure what all they will be yet but still...maybe even Inuyasha too...not sure yet...
Next, um....Let me think...Is there anything else to say? Oh yeah, sorry It took so long to update, but I have another story that I am also working on, plus the Christmas holidays are always hectic.
That reminds me.... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters...or anything else claimed by the respected people...or what ever I need to say here...The only thing I own is my Imagination...woooo...yeah...okay...lets do this!
Oh...almost forgot...again!...How do you like this thing written?? In someones p.o.v. (mostly Kagome's) or just 3rd person??? Let me know in your review... This chappie will be in 3rd persons so that you can get a good feel for both.
Annnnd....Since I am incorporating Inuyasha into Harry Potter and such, the plot may change a little...mainly because it is during his fifth year, and that was the only book I didn't read...so If things are new, or missing, or ect..that is why...because I am not very educated on the time line of everything. Plus I really hate Umbridge. And please excuse if my writing isn't as great as J.K. Rowling's or other fan fic authors for sadly I am just a ninth grader...ENJOY!!! This chappie is gonna be reeeeeeally long :))
p.s. sorry for the long author note...which has so many grammar mistakes its not even funny...or is it?
---3rd person p.o.v.---
The five teens were still in the same room. Kagome was sitting along with Harry and Kira on the bed, earning an occasional glance from Inuyasha who on the floor between the bed and an old dresser. Hermione was still by the door, propped against the wall and Ron was not to far in front of her, sitting on the floor along with Inuyasha.
Kagome was thinking of how she should go with this. She could always just go right out and say it, but how would they react? Would they be upset? Would they think she was crazy?
"So what did Dumbledore tell you?" Kagome finally asked, deciding to take the long way around this. Inuyasha sighed from his spot on the floor. Kagome sent him a quick glare.
Harry was silent at first, trying to remember all that the old professor has told him, making sure not to miss anything important. "Really only a few details, that you weren't from around here, were here to help us with Voldemort, and weren't..." Harry was twisting his thumbs, looking for the right word, "normal.." Harry said after a moment of thought. He expected Kagome or Inuyasha to be offended with what he said or at least flinch when he spoke Voldemort's name, as most people did, but they showed no sign of either. He was both relieved and shocked. Hermione and Ron looked the same.
"Yeah, seems the old man left out a few major details then, figures." Inuyasha put in. The Trio - which is what I will call Harry, Ron, and Hermione when talking about all of them just to make things a bit simpler - looked a bit shocked at Inuyasha's casual and rude talk of Dumbledore. Kagome just decided to blow it off, not wanting to give herself whiplash from glaring at him so much.
"Well," Hermione began, after recomposing her calm features. "I guess we could start with where you come from." She suggested, Kagome noticed the same look in her eyes that one of her friends had back in Japan, no doubt because of the possibility of new information. Kagome could tell already that Hermione was the smarter of the three.
Kagome nodded, thankful that this was getting off to a decent start, nothing to hard to answer yet. "Well, we are both from Japan..." Kagome began, before being abruptly interrupted by Inuyasha who was already becoming both impatient and bored from all this talk.
"But, I'm not from this time." Inuyasha stated bluntly. The three wizards stared at him in disbelief, Kagome glared, managing to get a cramp in her neck.
The room was silent for a while leaving the Trio confused, Inuyasha annoyed, and Kagome looking a bit uncomfortable in the silence, rubbing the back of her now aching neck. Kagome was silently cursing Inuyasha for not letting her take things her own way.
Hermione eventually decided to break the silence. "But...that's impossible...isn't it?" She asked, now deep in thought, going through all the knowledge she could remember from all the books she had read, only annoying Inuyasha further.
"If it wasn't possible, I wouldn't be here, would I?" Inuyasha asked, sarcasm thick in his tone.
"How?..." Harry asked, Ron was still silent, a dumbfounded look on his face.
"The Bone Eaters Well, back at my family's shrine." Kagome answered, only making the three more confused, she sighed.
"What time are you from then?" Harry asked Inuyasha, his words a bit rushed, not sure if he should believe the two newcomers or not, considering the sanity of both Inuyasha and Kagome along with Dumbledore himself.
Inuyasha paused, not sure how to answer, he had never really been good at keeping up with time. The only events worth keeping track of were the nights of the full moon and when Kagome planned on going visit her family and take care of those odd things she called 'test'. Finally he answered, "Umm...some time in the Feudal Era." Recognition flickered across Hermione's face.
"That was nearly five hundred years ago!" She exclaimed, nearly hitting the door she was standing next to in her sudden jolt of movement.
"More or less." Kagome confirmed, shifting her position a little on the bed, causing Kira to waken. Her eyes opened suddenly, but only for a moment, just long enough to take in her surroundings and then close them again drifting back to sleep.
"So, he's a time traveler?" Ron asked, finally finding his voice, but wishing he hadn't the moment he spoke, the idea sounded ridiculous. All eyes were on him.
"And also a Hanyo." Kagome added, taking the stares away from Ron. -Not sure if the word Hanyo supposed to be Caped, so it just will it looks better than hanyo -
"A Hanyo? What's that?" Hermione asked, surprised that she never came across the term.
"A Hanyo is the Japanese term for a human/demon hybrid, or half demon." Kagome explained, shock crossed the Trio's faces. The three wizards were waiting for someone to say, 'just kidding' or 'this is all just a joke', but both Kagome and Inuyasha looked completely serious. They were finding all this hard to keep up with, he, Inuyasha, looked normal...or at least human, nothing at all like a Demon, or at least their idea's of what a Demon looked like.
"You can't expect us to believe this, can you?" Ron asked, not really buying the story, also getting an unwanted glare from Inuyasha.
"Not at first, but there's more, and once it's explained this will all make a lot more sense." Kagome said, and then waited to make sure that the others were ready. When no one spoke she began again. "On my fifteenth birthday my cat back at home, not Kira," Kagome broke off, taking notice, again, to her pet, who was still napping between Harry and Kagome. "But my other one...Well, my brother, Sota, thought he jumped into the Bone Eater's Well, because there was a strange noise coming from it and he wasn't in the house. My brother was to scared to check himself, so I went down to look, when I did my cat jumped out at me, but the noise still remained." Kagome stopped there; Harry had a question.
"So, the noise that was coming from the well, that was you?" He asked, directing the question at Inuyasha, who was not surprised that he would make that assumption, though it was far from the truth.
"Not really," Kagome answered, directing the attention back to her, so she could tell the rest of the story. She explained everything, starting with how she found Inuyasha pinned to the Sacred Tree, about how both Inuyasha and Kikyo were turned against each other, the Shikon Jewel, Naraku and his plot, and how everything was tied together, ending with how they wound up here, pausing only to catch her breath.
"Wow." Hermione summed up, not sure of what else to say.
"So," Harry began, already having more questions. "That necklace keeps you human?" He asked.
"Yeah, and we intend to keep things that way, unless Naraku shows up, or if there is other danger, possible from this Voldemort or whatever." Inuyasha answered, Ron looked relieved, Harry and Hermione finally understanding why neither Kagome nor Inuyasha seemed affected by Voldemort.
"Uggg...my brain hurts..." Ron commented softly, only heard by Inuyasha and Kagome who had a bit more sensitive hearing. Kagome grinned a little.
"Inuyasha, I think you should show them." Kagome said, thinking it would be a nice finishing touch, just the thing to tear down any wall of doubt.
Inuyasha was a bit hesitant at first, but eventually nodded and then took off the silver opal. Hermione, Harry and Ron were left speechless as Inuyasha's appearance changed.
"Your hair..." Hermione pointed out.
"And your eyes..." Ron added.
"Annnd...my sword, Tetsusaiga." Inuyasha said, almost teasingly, while unsheathing his sword, allowing it to grow to its full size, furry handle and all. The Trio stared as his sword slightly glowed from all the demonic energy flowing through it.
Ron backed up from his spot near Inuyasha to where Hermione was standing near the door, scared for his life. Kagome and Inuyasha had to hold in their laughter, which was threatening to explode at any moment.
"Well, then" Harry said, shifting uncomfortably on the bed, wondering just how dangerous these two were. "It seems the rest of this year will be quite interesting." Harry commented.
"Yeah, it sure will. So, when do we head to Hogwarts anyway?" Kagome asked, curious about her new school. Inuyasha put his necklace back on, losing his demonic appearance.
"Well, classes start up again the day after tomorrow, so we leave tomorrow morning." Hermione told her, secretly happy that she could get back to work.
"Ah, great...you'd think the old man could let us know these things..." Inuyasha grumbled. "Curse that Naraku, making me go to school...he couldn't just stick with looking after the shards! He'll pay for this, just wait to I get my hands on him..." Inuyasha continued mumbling, causing Kagome to laugh, which broke the tension that had been building. The Trio relaxed a little.
"Hey, Kagome?" Hermione asked, after moving away from the door.
"Yeah?" Kagome answered.
"Where's your broom?" She asked, Kagome looked at her like she was an idiot, did she expect her to clean something?
"My...broom? The room isn't that dirty is it?" She asked, a little annoyed.
"I suppose Dumbledore forgot to mention that as a wizard, we can indeed fly on broomsticks." Hermione explained, bursting into a fit of laughter. Now it was Hermione's turn to stare, as Kagome continued laughing, even Inuyasha was curious.
"Im...Im sorry...but I just can't imagine Inu-Inuyasha on...on a...A BROOM!" Kagome continued laughing, the Trio looked at Inuyasha and joined in on the laughter, though not as much as Kagome.
"HEY! CUT IT OUT!" Inuyasha demanded, his hand on his Tetsusaiga, though not even Ron took him seriously in his human form. The laughter continued a little while longer. Soon after, it was decided that Hermione would take Kagome out to pick up two brooms. This would leave the boys to watch all the animals, though they weren't too happy about it. Ron, however, was mostly just worried about Inuyasha, who kept passing glances at Harry. He wondered if it had anything to do with how friendly Harry was being with Kagome. He wondered if Inuyasha and Kagome were together.
--
About an hour later Kagome and Hermione returned, talking about the most random things, it was clear the two were already becoming friends. They walked back into the main room just in time to break up an arguement that had started between Inuyasha and Ron over wizards chest.
"This game is stupid!" Inuyasha yelled, nearly throwing the board with his anger.
Ron quickly moved the board out of reach, "Just because you're no good at it doesn't mean it's stupid!" Ron yelled back.
"C'mon guys break it up." Harry was saying, trying to resolve the fight.
"Stay out of it!" Inuyasha yelled, getting worked up over nothing.
"I see we walked in on a bad time." Hermione said, a worried, yet humored grin on her face.
"Inuyasha..." Kagome began, sighing, wondering why he always had to pick a fight.
"I said stay out of it, this is between me and carrot top over here!" Inuyasha said bitterly, reminding Kagome of when he fought with Shippo and Kouga, so childish.
"Hey!" Ron yelled, not liking his new nickname.
"Inuyasha..." Kagome said, getting a bit angry...any more of this and she would...
"Kagome!" Inuyasha said sarcastically...immediately regretting it..."No, I know that look.."
"Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. SIT!" Kagome yelled, causing Inuyasha to plunge head first into the floor. Even though the affects weren't as powerful as they were when Inuyasha was his normal Hanyo self, everyone could tell that it still hurt. Inuyasha said nothing...
"I simply must get me one of those." Hermione joked, Ron and Harry passed wary glances to each other.
--
After Inuyasha recovered from the sit fit, Hermione showed them to their rooms, which were thankfully just down the hall. They were a bit small, but at least they each had a room to themselves along with a very comfortable bed. They drifted to sleep rather swiftly.
Kagome woke to the familiar scene of soft morning light filtered through the window next to her bed. At first, she thought she was back in her own room in Japan, just until the sleep left both her eyes and her mind. She looked around; confirming that what had happened last night was real and not just a dream.
-- Kagome's p.o.v. (sorry for the sudden switch)
I moved the warm covers off my body and unwillingly got out of bed. I knew that trying to sleep longer would be pointless, even though I was still a bit tired. It was close to the time Hermione had planned to wake me up, according to the clock on the end table, just past seven. I started to walk over to my bag, but stopped when I passed a trunk that I did not notice last night. I opened it, finding all my belongings and a note, from none other than Dumbledore.
I took the liberty of transferring all your belongings to this trunk.
You will find it much easer to deal with that that old bag of yours.
Also, do not worry, I did so using magic, so I was not actually
sifting through all your personal belongings.
Lastly, I want to apologize for not informing you of the importance of brooms.
I find that with old age comes the bad habit of forgetting things rather easily,
but I trust Hermione has already noticed the absence and had taken you back to Diagon Alley.
~Dumbledore
I smiled as I read the note, the old man was so kind, and knew Hermione, Harry, and Ron so well. It made me wonder what kind of adventures the three took together while under Dumbledore's watchful eye. I yawned, stretched and then picked up my clothes from inside my trunk, changing quickly. I didn't put on my robe yet, remembering that Hermione told me that most didn't put on theirs until they were almost to the school. I closed my trunk and walked out of my room, ready to face the problem at hand, waking up Inuyasha from probably dead sleep.
I walked into his room, noticing that I was right. He looked...peaceful when he was asleep, and not arguing with someone about who knows what. I walked over to his bed and tried to wake him, shaking him at first not realizing he was that heavy.
"Inuyasha wake up!" I told him after about two minuets of constant shaking; this boy was like a log with long hair. "Inuyasha..."
"Hmmmmm....hmph.." He said, though I'm wasn't sure if he was actually trying to form words.
"If you don't get up I'm leaving you here." I said, making sure to sound threatening, trying to yank the covers off of him, though he had a strong grip, even while sleeping, but I had an idea. "Okay....let's see...ah, here it is." I said, while grabbing Tetsusaiga from where it rested beside Inuyasha's bed. "Look what I have Inuyasha, you wouldn't want anything to happen to your sword would you?" I asked him, he stiffened. I walked over to the window, he heard my foot steps and sat up, eyes wide to see me holding my hand out the window, Tetsusaiga along with it.
"You wouldn't dare..." Inuyasha grumbled, glaring at me.
"Get up or I drop it." I told him, he didn't move. "Im serious..." I let my pinky finger off the sword, causing it to sway a little in the harsh winter winds.
"Fine!" He got up, threw the covers off and walked over to me...but knowing that he would probably just take the sword and go back to bed I ran around him, playing a bit of keep away. "Kagome...." He grumbled, "give it back!" He kept reaching for the sword, but I kept moving around, a bit quick for his tired reflexes...I loved this, it was hilarious.
"I will give it back when you are ready to leave." I told him, teasingly. He lunged for the sword, I ducked and he flew right over my head, just missing it and crashing to the floor. Harry came running in, alarmed, still have in his pajama's.
"What's going on? Everything okay? Oh, hey Kagome." Harry said, not noticing me at first.
"Hi, and yes we're fine...just trying to wake Inuyasha up." I explained, and while I was distracted Inuyasha grabbed back his sword.
"Hey, no fair!" I yelled, angry that my fun was over.
"You're the one that took it! Now get out so I can change!." Inuyasha yelled back, while shoving me out of his room, slamming the door.
"Erm...you okay Kagome?" Harry asked, clearly he could see my face, which was a cross between ticked and humored.
"Yeah, I'm fine, when's breakfast?" I asked, already hungry.
"We were just planning to eat on the train, but if you are hungry now there is always food downstairs you can order, but I would suggest just waiting." He told me, and I nodded.
Just then the door opened. "There, I'm ready, happy now?" Inuyasha asked and I smiled.
"Yes. So Harry, when does the train leave?" I asked him.
"Um, I think in about an hour or so, but we were going to leave here a bit early to get good seats." Harry told me and I nodded.
---
After everyone was up and ready we gathered our things, put our pets in their cages (much to Kira displeasure I might add. I had to promise her that I'd let her out as soon as we were on the train to get her to calm down.) and then started off to King's Cross Station to board platform 9 and 3/4.
"You want me...to run into that wall? Are you an idiot! " Inuyasha was yelling, earning stares, I shushed him.
"You're the one being an idiot, yelling like that. Look, just watch Ron." I told him, watching as Ron ran straight through the wall. Amazing.
"Fine, Kagome, you go first then." Inuyasha said, annoyed. I did, thankful that I was let through the wall. A huge relief lifted off my chest, I heard Hermione say before that only wizards were allowed through, I guess there was magical blood in me after all, though I wasn't at all sure where it came from. A few seconds later and Inuyasha came storming in, nearly running into me.
"You think you could slow down?" I asked.
"Well, they told me to run!" Inuyasha yelled, though he seemed relieved as well.
"STOP YELLING!" I yelled at him and he shut up quickly. I took in a deep breath to calm myself and waited for the others to come through. We headed on the train, bringing our needed items on board and letting the train workers take care of the rest. Kira looked excited at the sight of the train, thankful that she would soon be out of her cage. Harry was leading the way and we eventually settled for compartment near the center of the train, even though we got here early the train was nearly half full and all the best seats were already taken. We put our things in the racks above us and got comfortable for what would be a very long ride according to Ron. I didn't mind, but Inuyasha's mood dropped. He was so impatient!
Harry, Ron and Hermione all sat on one seat, Inuyasha and me on the other. I was thankful that this compartment was spacious. - is it even called a compartment??? I dont remember.- I let Kira out of her cage and she happily sprang out and joined Hermione's, playing with his tail.
"Who's that?" I asked Hermione, who was sitting across from me, as the same boy I saw at Madam Malkin's walked past the cab, casting a quick glace in our compartment before stalking off. "I heard Madam Malkin call him Malfoy."
"Yeah, well that's Draco Malfoy. It would be best to stay clear of him, he's one fowl evil little nitwit if I do say so myself." Hermione explained, Harry and Ron agreed. The compartment door slid open, and surprisingly Draco was the one behind it.
"Who are you calling a nitwit, Granger?" Draco asked, wand out. Seems that boy couldn't help but eavesdrop. I sighed, and he looked over at me, then at Inuyasha, surprised most likely at the new company.
"You, baka." Inuyasha stated bluntly, before Hermione could say anything. I giggled, knowing he mixed in some Japanese in just to confuse him.
"Baka? What the heck does that mean, and who do you think you are. Hey, Crabbe, check out his hair. It's longer than your mother's," Draco commented, looking at the short, chubby boy next to him. They laughed. Inuyasha did too, only his laugh was a bit darker.
"You want to say that again?" Inuyasha asked, standing up to show his full size. He was easily a head taller than him and the look Inuyasha gave Draco shut him up qick.
"Watch it." Draco told him, pointing his wand at Inuyasha's face, Inuyasha rested his hand on the sheath of his sword, but before Draco could follow the movement of his hand to discover Tetsusaiga, I stepped up, standing between them.
"I suggest you leave now, before you get hurt." I told him, my voice strong and clear, something Draco was not expecting. "We don't play by your rules." I told him after the boy seemed hesitant in leaving, but I only managed to confuse him further. When he didn't move I stepped up closer, to where I was only a few inches away from him. "Move." He backed up and I shut the compartment door, leaving Draco and Crabbe stunned on the other side.
"How did you do that? The prat was so scared he could barely move." Ron asked, and I just shrugged.
"Shippo is manlier than him, and he wears a bow on his chest. That Draco boy has nothing compared to Naraku or the other demon's we've faced." I answered. They laughed, remembering what I told them about my family from the feudal era. "And Inuyasha, you need to watch your temper. It would cause a ruckus if you just pulled out your sword like you almost did."
"Fine, but next time he points that twig at my face I'm taking off this dang necklace! I'll give him something to talk about..." Inuyasha grumbled.
"Yeah, and you'll find yourself face down in the dirt if I'm there." I told him, he flinched and then crossed his arms, bringing on the full force of his pouty face. He still hasn't realized that I'm just about immune to it; Sota does the same thing back at home.
---- Draco's p.o.v tehe ----
I was back in my compartment, along with Crabbe and Goyle. "Just who do they think they are, acting like that?! Calling me baka, whatever the heck that is! And what does that girl mean by saying they don't play by my rules? Crabbe, find out what that word means!" I ordered, letting off some of my anger on these two goofs. Crabbe managed to trip himself before he even stood up and left the compartment, it was a surprise even to myself why I hung out with these two idiots.
"I don't know, they look...different." Goyle summed up, yeah, like it wasn't already obvious.
"Well no duh, you idiot! They obviously aren't British. That girl looks a lot like Cho Chang. She must be Chinese or Japanese or something, but that boy she was with, something's off about him and I plan to find out what. Did you manage to see where his hand went? That girl stood between us before I could get a good look, he's hiding something. And that girl....well...that girl..." I said lost for words to describe her. There was something, maybe the power of her voice or just the way she stood up to me like that was something incredible...and...irritating, odd, scary even, dare I admit it. And I wont admit it.
---- Kagome's P.O.V. ----
I looked out the window, amazed at the size of the castle. It was tall, dark, with many stories and towers making it resemble a castle. We had all changed into our robes about twenty minuets ago, getting anxious now that we were so close, or at least I was, Hermione looked excited too.
"Did Dumbledore say anything about what year you would be in? Or what house? I hope you get placed in ours." Hermione was saying excitedly.
"Yeah, that would be helpful.." Harry commented.
"Sure.." Ron whispered.
"Actually, I'm not too sure about what you mean by year, but Dumbledore did say that we would be in your house. He mentioned that it was important we all remained together as much as possible." I told them, which caught them by surprise. "What?" I asked.
"I've never heard of anyone being placed into a house before they even arrived to Hogwarts, usually it is the job of the sorting hat." Harry explained.
"Yeah, me neither, and I've read Hogwarts. A History practically a dozen times." Hermione said, which didn't surprise me, well about the reading thing that is.
"Well, you have also never heard of Demons and Mikos at Hogwarts either." I told them and laughed.
--- A while later, in the Great Hall Kagome's P.O.V. ---
They didn't call this the great hall for nothing. The place was massive and looked like it could hold a thousand people. There were huge tables, which separated the four houses into sections. I was seated with the rest of the Gryffindors, in between Inuyasha and Hermione. I felt a little uncomfortable with the occasional stare that I received, but it wasn't as bad as Inuyasha, who looked like he was about to rip someone's head off. The chatter was getting louder, there were people saying hi to us, I smiled back kindly, but was grateful when Dumbledore called for attention.
He stood at his podium, looking taller than I remembered him. Once everyone was quiet he began. "Good evening and welcome back. I trust you have all had a more than ordinary Christmas Holiday. There is much to discuss, and not much time to do so, I expect that you are all as hungry as I am." Dumbledore said and took a breath; all the students remained quiet. "First, I would like to remind you all that the Forbidden forest is still in fact, forbidden. Second, I would like to introduce two new student's transferring from Japan, Inuyasha and Kagome, please make them feel welcome. They have already been sorted into their houses, both Gryffindor, so there will not be a sorting ceremony tonight. With that said, let the feast begin." As he said that, plates and plates of food appeared right in front of us. It all looked delicious, Inuyasha looked like he was about to start drooling. Well, he was half dog.
"Ron, looks like there is finally someone here that eats as much as you do." Harry said, bumping Ron on the shoulder. Inuyasha grinned, but continued eating. Ron glared at Harry.
"Look, seems Draco is staring at you two." Hermione whispered, I guessed that Inuyasha heard it as well because he looked behind him to meet eyes with Draco; Inuyasha's glare caused Draco to swiftly look away. I grinned, imaging Draco in Inuyasha's time. It would be funny to see how well he handled a demon...wait..
"Inuyasha, did I ever bring my bow back with us? Or did I leave it with Sango and Miroku?" I asked him, he thought for a moment, mouth full of food, then swallowed.
"I don't think you put it in your bag..." Inuyasha told me, not of much help, he didn't pay enough attention to give me a straight yes or no answer. I would have to check everything once I got to my room. If Dumbledore was telling the truth, all my things that I had originally when I climbed out the well, including my other books, would be there waiting on me.
After Inuyasha and Ron were finally done eating we decided to walk straight to the dorms, mostly because it was late and we were already tired. We walked up many stairs, and then reached a painting of a fat lady. Turns out that nearly all the paintings around here moved, talked, or were interactive in some way. This painting was the one that hid the secret passage that lead to the dorms, but only after giving a password.
"Pig Snout," Harry spoke clearly, but not too loud, so that passerby's would not catch the password by mistake. I nearly giggled, who came up with these passwords?
"Wow, this place is pretty big." Inuyasha said. "So, where do I sleep?" He asked, yawning.
"Upstairs, through that door." Harry pointed and Inuyasha walked off. Figures he'd be the first one in bed. "Guess I'll go and show him which is his bed..."
"That would probably be a good idea." I told him, knowing how Inuyasha can get. "Oh, speaking of our rooms, I need to-" I started, but then the portrait hole opened. One of the professors walked in. She was very strict looking, wearing her hair in a tight black bun, a pointed hat on top of that and neat robes.
"Good evening Professor McGonagall." Hermione greeted, and I added a good evening as well to be polite. Ron wasn't paying much attention so he missed his chance. McGonagall passed him a look.
"Good evening Miss Granger, Mr. Weasley, Miss..." McGonagall trailed off, hinting that she wanted my last name.
"Higurashi. Kagome Higurashi." I told her, and she smiled a warm smile.
"Miss Higurashi. So, where is that other fellow that was with you? I have your class schedules...and also a letter from Dumbledore. He would like to see you in his office as soon as you get the chance." McGonagall said, looking for Inuyasha. "You two also." She said, talking about Ron and Hermione. "Mr. Potter as well, if you can manage to find him." She finished.
"Oh, that's no problem. Harry was just showing Inuyasha where his room was, or trying to at least. We don't know which year Inuyasha or Kagome are in so it may take a few minuets." Hermione told her.
"I'll go find them." Ron said, and headed off to the boys dorms.
"Yes, that is one of the reasons Dumbledore would like to see you, to straighten out a few things before classes start, seeing as he had to leave you two in Diagon Alley so soon." McGonagall explained. I nodded.
---
After Ron found both Inuyasha and Harry, he headed back downstairs, Inuyasha looked ticked, probably because Ron woke him up. I figured Inuyasha must feel safe here, despite the fact that there was a demon and evil, possibly sadistic wizard on the loose. Back in the Feudal Era, he rarely slept because he was always keeping watch over everyone. Here he slept like a rock...
"Come on, lets get this over with so I can go back to sleep." Inuyasha grumbled, refastening his Tetsusaiga back in place, luckily no one was watching. I would have to remind him, yet again, to be a bit more careful with showing it.
---
After a bit of walking through this huge school we finally made it to Dumbledore's office, which was behind yet another secret passage that also required a password. The passageway opened and we walked up a spiraling set of stairs, then through the door. Dumbledore was waiting behind his desk.
"Good evening." He said, and put down the book that he was reading.
"Good evening Professor. What is it you need with us?" Harry asked.
"Yeah, I was sleeping." Inuyasha added, a bitter tone to his voice.
"I am sorry, this just couldn't wait. Plus, I didn't want to interrupt any of your classes tomorrow. But, you are not to worry, this will only take a few minuets." He began. "Have Kagome and Inuyasha explained everything to you yet?" He asked.
"Yes, we did. Everything." I answered.
"Good, very good. Now, I'm sure you are wondering by now some of the smaller details, and their are a few things that I need, mostly just some information that will keep you two blended in." He said, talking about me and Inuyasha.
"Like what?" Inuyasha asked, more alert now.
"Oh, just simple things right now...age, last names, your relation to one another, why you are here..." He told us. Tricky questions.
"Well, for age, I am fifteen. But, Inuyasha's age is a bit skeptic. And as for relation's, I think it would be safest to say that we just came from the same school....as an exchange program perhaps." I suggested, I saw a twinkle in Dumbledore's eye, one that hinted we were getting somewhere. "Oh, and my last name is Higurashi."
"I...err...don't have one..."Inuyasha said... looking a bit...off...
"No problem, I feared as much. I've come across a few name's that might suit you, here they are...and I think you would either pass as fifteen or sixteen as far as age goes, maybe the latter of fifteen, so that we can fit you in the same year as the rest of you. I think it would be best if you were all together as much as possible." He said, and then pushed a bit of parchment up for us to look at, about fifteen common Japanese surnames were on it. We all took turns looking through the list, seeing ones we liked.
"I kind of like this one..." Ron said, showing it to Hermione.
"No, I think it's a bit to plain..." She answered him, looking back to the list.
"This one is a bit fancier." Harry said, pointing out a really long name.
"A bit to fancy." I told him.
"Yeah, it would help if I could actually remember my last name, wouldn't it?" Inuyasha asked, being sarcastic.
"I like this one...Hayashi...what about you Inuyasha?" I asked him...he thought about it for a minuet.
"It's not too bad, what about this one.." He asked, pointing to one that made me laugh... "Just kidding, Kagome. I like Hayashi."
"Well, then it's decided. Inuyasha, you are now to be known as Inuyasha Hayashi, or simply, to the other professor's, Mr. Hayashi. As for age, it would be safest to say fifteen, nearly sixteen, that way you can be in your fifth year and not be separated from the others." Dumbledore concluded. We spent the next few minuet's going over birthdays, family members, ect. In the end, Inuyasha had a whole new life story.
We said out goodbyes and thankyou's and were all about to head out the door, but Dumbledore stopped us.
"Oh, wait, I almost forgot. Kagome, I had a hunch you might be needing this." Dumbledore said, revealing my bow and arrows.
"Thanks! I thought I'd left those, but how will I carry these around all day? Won't people talk?" I asked him, worried that I would not be able to use my only weapon.
"Have you already forgotten about magic?" He asked and chuckled. "I charmed them, so that when you say the spell Reducio they will shrink, allowing you to store them wherever needed be, and brought back to full size with Engorgio. I believe the pocket on the inside of your robe will work out quite nicely. And, if what I believe is true, you wont even need your wand in hand. Try it out." He told me, and I was relieved.
"Without a wand? How is that possible?" Hermione asked.
"I think it is because of my Miko powers. I never needed anything before, why would I need something now?" I answered, hoping I didn't offend them. I took my bow in hand and said, "Reducio." My hand started glowing with a light pink light and then, seconds later, the bow shrank so that it could fit in the palm of my hand.
"That's brilliant!" Harry commented. Everyone agreed.
"Unfortunate enough, I find it best that you do use your wand, at least when others are around. And, I have already informed the other Professors of the situation, so that they know not to snatch away your weapons should they spot them, but everyone, except for Poppy - the nurse - and McGonagall are aware of what you really are.
"Alright, that make's since...thankyou...Professor." I told him, and we finally walked out of his office, my tiny little bow and quiver full of arrows still in my hand. "Amazing."
I wondered what classes would be like tomorrow.
