Dumbledore thinks rubbing his beard. "The only thought i have is that the night that Voldemort attacked Harry, he must have split his soul and placed in in Harry some how."
Sesshomaru snarled at Dumbledore, he turned and left the room, he was one step away from his old self, the one who killed without remorse. He made a silent promise to his beloved Rin, the child of his heart that he would never kill another mortal as long as he and they existed on the same earth.
Maria watched him go with a sigh, he was still troubled by his compassion for mortals, or anyone for that matter. Five hundred years and he was still the same demon, she met and fell in love with, and she wouldn't change it for the world. "The question is...how do you get the soul fragment out without harming Harry?"
"I'll have to do some research, my lady, and see what i may find out." Noriko states, as she turned to leave and came face to face with the young Priestess, who's temple was the Order of Four Souls.
"Pardon, I should have sent my soul collectors with a letter saying, I would be arriving." Kikyo apologized as she looked at Dumbledore. "I would say its a pleasure to see you but its not."
The wizard smiled weakly "Ahh Lady Kikyo so good to see you as well I did not expect to see you so soon."
"Considering my temple is located within the confines of the demonic empire, you put two and two together. Also with so many interruptions, I find the magical energy bothersome." Kikyo answers
"Still i did not expect to see you on so small a matter as me visiting." Little did the professor now harry was listening near by as well as soon a he felt Kikyo near by.
"Let's say, I do not trust you to be honest with beings old enough to have sired your entire line." Kikyo replies, as she turned slightly, "I see Harry has felt my Holy energy, and is nearby..."
They all heard Harry's eep and heard his footstep run down the hall.
Adrian came running into the room, when he smelled Kikyo's scent, and smiled as he went to reach for her hands only to be repelled by a barrier.
"I will remain pure, I will atone for my sins of my previous life as the Tragic Priestess Kikyo to achieve my greatest desire. You will not stop me from doing so." Kikyo states, as she looked toward the half-demon.
"But lady Kikyo, surely you can have a companion with you."
The two slayers smile as Maria growls softly in warning "Adrian, adults are talking why don't you help your cousin Harry and his friend please." Her voice made it an order not a request.
"Yes, Lady-Aunt Maria." the young half-demon left the room.
Kikyo thought about the statement before shaking her head. "I must do what I was reborn for and that task may end with my life...either way, I will have atoned for my sins and reach the sacred land."
"But you let Harry and his two friends companion you. "
Kikyo closed her eyes. "I protect Harry, I know what lies in his future, that is the reason, I was reborn. I am not meant to do anything else but to ensure that Harry lives, after that...I do not know what my fate is."
"So why can't i help you even My lord and lady asked for help."
Remus and Sirius entered the room, Sirius growled as he went and stood to the left of Maria, and Remus to the right. "It might have something to do with you not telling the truth, Headmaster." Sirius states, as he looked at Dumbledore, then his eyes flickered to Kikyo, who barely nodded.
"Ahh Sirius and Remus how good too see you both and I promise you both i have always been honest with you." You hear from down the hall Harrys voice "Thats a lie."
"So why didn't you give back the cloak to James? Since you borrowed it?" Remus questions
"At the time i couldn't return it and i figure after his death i would give it to harry just as his father wanted to do."
"You do realize that if James had the cloak, either he or Lily would have survived that means, you're just as guilty as Pettigrew for betraying them." Maria states
"No, i am not, I wanted nothing than for James and Lily to be alive right now."
"Because you didn't have the time, You know you could have made the time, you could have sent someone else to return something that was not your property. Hell, Albus, you have came to me! I could have provided safety for them." Maria states, as her temper frayed slightly.
Albus' face fell in shame. "we did try and i didn't get the cloak back till later."
"You had it because you wanted to study it! Hellfire, Dumbledore, you didn't even try to help me when I was throw into Azkaban prison!" Sirius exclaims
"I did tried repeatedly but my efforts was blocked by Malfoy and those in his pocket and you know that as well." Albus replies, "How do you i was able to keep your vaults and house black."
"Because I trusted you. I foolishly entrusted you to have my back. Which you didn't. Malfoy is an arse, and always will be one." Sirius states, "You had allies, one of which would have used her influence to help out but you chose not to enlist the help of the Demonic Empire, because you thought that most of the demons would have sided with Voldemort."
Kikyo placed a hand to her temple, and let her aura flare causing the demons, and the magic users to look over in her direction. "You are giving me a headache, the problem lies with the soul fragment in Harry's body, am I correct?"
"A large portion of your demons did abandon us and just disappeared." Albus counter just as he felt Harry's rage once more..
"That's because the Slayers took care of them." Sara states, as she looked at Dumbledore. "I know little of magic, but I do know about demons and warfare, which is to say the Slayers of this generation are in pay by Sesshomaru and Maria to what our job was for five hundred years and then some."
Remus cleared his throat. "I believe Lady Kikyo has spoken but you have completely ignored her, and I think she's planning on turning you into charcoal."
Kikyo steps up to Albus and frowns "You are a disappointment Albus and how you remained headmaster is a mystery, i really don't care about."
"A what in my body." They heard Harry yell.
Kikyo spun on her heel, and left the room and within seconds, she returned with Harry.
"Ow ow ow Kikyo thats my ear please i still need it."
"Not if you keep eavesdropping on conversions between people, who are vastly more knowledgeable in things, you do not understand." Kikyo retorted as she dragged Harry into the room. "Now as to your question, you have a soul fragment in your body, which is why that scar of yours has never faded as most scars do unless, they are imprinted as a birthmark in the next life as a reminder of your folly."
"Okay i understand that now but you can fix it right Kikyo I mean this is your gift ...right... Kikyo you can get this out of me..." Harry was looking worried at his family that includes Kikyo ecen if she would never let him say as much.
"Over time, I might be able too, but until I can contain it. It is the same technique, I used to purify the evil within Kohaku's shard." Kikyo replies
"K-K-Kohaku..." Sara shuttered as she stumbled as she looked back as if she were looking at someone, who wasn't there.
"Sara! Come back to the present, this isn't Feudal Japan, and you are Sara, not Sango!" Noriko snapped as she raised her hand and slapped Sara across the face. The other Slayer blinked before focusing on the present... "Noriko?"
"Sara, go take a rest." Noriko states, "I got this covered."
Sara sighs "Of course Cousin I'm just over worked thats all." As she bows and leaves the room.
"Overworked my arse, her past life is coming awake...that is not a good sign." Kikyo replies, "She's going to find the monk's reincarnation...and most likely he's going to be a lecher as well."
Maria stood up. "Albus, since I have no need of your services, I think its time you leave."
He stood and with a bow "Of course, Lady Maria." He walks out of the room.
"Sit, as if you're in a Japanese house." Kikyo commanded as she looked at Harry. "Might as well begin this now.."
Harry does as she orders with out even thinking "Kikyo you know i trust you in almost everything."
"By the time, I am able to purify this soul fragment for good, you may just as well hate me." Kikyo replies, as she knelt down and raised one hand, she placed it on Harry's back, she knew that the scar would be a good place, but with ten years to grow and fester, she wasn't sure where to try to purify the fragment, so she was acting as if it was the jewel shard in Kohaku's back. Her hand glowed with power, as she touched where she sensed the fragment.
Harry screams in pain as her power fills his body. "Momma."
