Inuyasha crossover Harry Potter
Chapter 7: Professor Higurashi!

Neville was unsure of the opportunity that their new professor was giving him, even more so unsure was that he was currently the only one or so he knows of. Even the Golden Trio were not part of it or asked by her yet, and after hearing their suspicion on her, he was getting worried and scared.

The school, Hogwarts, is really a place that she had not much idea or desire to know of. Except that the scale of magic that they work on here, always requires that of a wand, something that she had found that in common fictional and fairytale literature to portray almost rather accurately. Only in representation of the wand though, the rest, she was skeptical about but paid it no mind as it was after all just another order and she wanted nothing more than to return to the castle and spend the time with Sesshoumaru more than anything.

Students here are shock, traumatized even as they have a hard time getting over the war and most especially against any Slytherin house members. Everyone is suspicious of the other, especially for those that seem to be unable to draw a line properly on who is friend and who is foe. It was really something common that Kagome had expected as she looked around her students who were far too exhausted to even think clearly.

"Up!" Kagome commanded, cutting their 5 minutes break shorter than expected as she heard them groaning, "For every extra minute that you decide to waste, you're going to be running through the courses over again 10 times more, and each time have to be perfect," she informed them, as they scurried back to their feet faster than before.

"Very good," she murmured with a glint in her eyes, as they looked at her uneasily, aware that what she might say next was not going to be pleasant.

Kagome started pulling people together in a pair base on their conflicting auras as she scrutinize and watched each of their reaction. When she is done, she is more than sure that they hated each other and that was far more satisfactory than needed.

"Good, now with your new partner, I want you to see you two clearing the obstacle course half the time faster than usual on average," and that was when the grumbling and glaring begins.

"Begin," she said with a whisper that seemed to echo through the place as they started.

Shoving and pushing was expected, as is verbally abusing one another as they tried going through the course safely. Her eyes wander from one pair to the next as she watched them silently, the one platinum blonde, Draco Malfoy, he caught her eyes. He has stamina she admits, but there is so much fear in his movements that it is really such a pity she thought.

By the time she agree to release the students, they were all falling and stumbling over one another using their remainder amount of energy fighting each other verbally or merely shoving one another away with a snarl it did not really matter to her. This was going to be just the beginning, and for what she had in mind, they will most probably be at each other's throat before the day is even over.

"Professor Higurashi, a word please," the new Headmistress McGonagall called out to her as she glance in her direction for a moment, before going after her.

"Professor Higurashi, is this really how you intend to educate the students?" she asked her strictly with such a look that it might have made some fear her, but not her.

"Really Headmistress McGonagall, this is how we train, any less, they would be like strawberries, so easily bruised," Kagome replied almost nonchalantly as she looked at her coolly, something of a bad trait that she had picked up from being around Sesshoumaru too long.

"I insist that you cease this method of training," she demanded, "The students are almost always near dead by the time that they are over with your class, god knows how long they will be around to survive it, or worse yet, the complaints that their parents might have," she practically ranted on.

"Well, they would have to take it up with the Ministry, we've been rather specific on how the lesson would turn out to be like," Kagome commented too casually that it would annoy just about anyone.

"Professor Higurashi, all I request is for you to tone it down enough for our students to be able to get through your class with more ease at their level," Professor McGonagall requested with an exasperated tone, her face looked as though she aged even more, because of Kagome mainly, and her choice in lesson plan.

"I don't think so Headmistress McGonagall, they are after young, and this is the best time to learn at their age, any lesser they might as well be killed off in the battlefield," Kagome told her of her own reasoning with a raised brow.

Kagome stood tall and proud as she looked at the other through a mask where no one was able to read her, or see her expression in her eyes, almost always with the look of boredom.

"I've another class to get to Headmistress McGonagall, let's have this conversation again at a later time," she said, excusing herself with a curt bow before leaving the Headmistress as she headed back to her assigned classroom.

This was most probably the first, usually in the past, she would have been the one on the receiving end of being reprimanded or put through counseling by the school teacher. With a shake of her head, Kagome continue on to where her class is as she nodded briefly to the students that had greeted her, and others that had avoided her like a plague. Amusing as it is, these kind of things did not usually last long, much as she is all for making her lessons easy for them, but it defeats the purpose in their learning phase and saw no point in teaching them 'half-past six' skills.

She meant well for them, after all, this is a survival skill that they would have master if they persevered to the end. Aside from that, this kind of exercises would also strengthen their body and mind at the same time. Something that she finds no fault in, even for someone who was once in their position, only armed with a bow and arrow and without any skills. Kagome sighed for the first time in front of another, as she waited for the rest of her students pour in, not caring what the other students that are present interpret her current mode or expression.

If only she could go back home now, and into his embrace.

Hello Readers

Been a super long time since I've done any form of update, I'm sorry about that. I've been too busy and buried in work lately that there really isn't much time to take a break. My apologies in advance though for my otherwise lack of English. I will try to take some time off one of the days to start editing all my written fanfiction. I hope that you enjoy this new chapter, take care and have a great week.

To Silversun XD
Thanks! I hope that you enjoy this new chapter as well. =]

To youshouldn'tneedtoknow
Haha I guess jealousy will be the least of their worries. Hope that you enjoy this new update!

To Dwyna
Thanks so much, so glad to see that you are enjoying this fan fiction.
You know I've been thinking about that as well, if he is a good candidate for her as well. Haha well you are right about Hermione's perspective, it is unlike the kind of magic that they are likely to be exposed to until her arrival, especially when it is not really a known thing in their books by assumption.
I hope that you are enjoying this new update, take care and have a great week.

To Scarlet Rhine
Haha yea in some ways, took some ideas and concept that there is other unexposed kinds to put into this fan fiction, hopefully it is not too much of a bad mix. Hope that you enjoy this new update. Take care and enjoy.

To 4Eva Dreaming
Thanks so much. I'm starting to wonder really if this story concept is going to work at the moment, not too sure if I'm taking it in the right direction. Feel as though it is going to flop down somewhere. Hopefully this new update is not a disappointment to you, hope that you enjoy this new update.

To Guest
My apologies, I will try better though, my English language is rather weak, but I guess that is the standard with me. Hope reading this fan fiction is not too much of an inconvenience and I really do hope that you enjoy it somewhat. Take care.
