Hello again. I've still only posted about half of this story (I mean, of the stuff I've written so far, it's not yet complete). I hope you're all still enjoying the story. A lot of people have been commenting about my previous author's note, specifically the idea of Luna having an Animetopoeia adventure of her own (and her own harem). I've decided to start writing this idea out. I've picked out a few harems that I thought would be good, but the story probably won't be posted until after January first sometime.

I do not own Harry Potter, Yu Yu Hakushou, or Fairy Tail

The next day, during lunch, Harry made a bento box for three and gave one to Yusuke and one to Boton, keeping the third for himself.

"Wow, Harry." Boton said, taking a bite, "This is delicious!"

"So what's this for?" Yusuke asked, taking a bite from his lunch. It seemed that he approved of the meal as well, "I gotta know so I can do it again next time."
Harry chuckled,

"Mostly just a thank you to he two of you. I know I have problems, and sometimes I act badly during a crisis. But it's nice to know I have people who will keep me in line."

Yusuke laughed,

"And here I'm the one people normally need to keep in line."

"That's nothing to brag about." Boton scolded lightly, but there was a hint of teasing behind her voice.

"So, Boton. What's with the school uniform?" Yusuke asked looking her over strangely, "Do all spirit detective assistants have those, or do you just like the little navy girl look?"

Boton hummed,

"Well, thought I'd fit the part if I'm going to follow you around school all day." She took a bite of rice, then another bite of one of the egg rolls, "Wow, these are really good." She complimented again.

"I'm glad you enjoy it." Harry smiled.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Boton said.

"What?" Yusuke asked wearily, when Boton 'almost forgot' something it usually was something important that would have been great to know a day before.

"About Kurama." Boton elaborated with a smile on her face, "His case was reviewed by the punishment board. Koenma has decided to release him on good behaviour."

"That's great!" Yusuke said.

"I was pretty worried about that." Harry admitted, "I was going to ask you if you needed a character witness for his case. But I guess that's unnecessary now."

Boton giggled, covering her mouth,

"Yes, it's great, isn't it? Kurama's going to be going free now."

The door to the roof opened and Keiko stepped out. She looked around, though Harry, Boton and Yusuke were sitting in the shade just behind her. She turned then saw them a bit surprised,

"There you are, Yusuke." She said, "Takanaka-sensei is looking for you. You're the only one who hasn't handed in their book report."

"Geez, that makes sense, cause I'm the only one fighting evil." He huffed.

Then Keiko noticed Boton and Harry and their lunches.

"Who made those? I know that you didn't…Yusuke didn't bully one of you into making these, did he?" she shot a glare at Yusuke.
"Why do you think I'd do that?" Yusuke huffed.

"I made them." Harry smiled, "Yusuke and Boton helped me out a few days ago. I felt I had to do something as a thank you."

"Really?" Keiko wondered, "What did he do?"

Harry shifted,

"It's a bit embarrassing…I was really upset at the time and did some pretty stupid stuff. But Yusuke and Boton brought me back to my senses. I don't mean to be rude, but, I'd rather not say anything more on the matter."
Yusuke scratched the back of his head,

"It was no big deal." He said, "You just needed a reminder that there were other people out there who were your friends."

Harry nodded, still grateful. Keiko looked a bit curious, but didn't pry, thankfully. Her gaze turned over to Boton,

"And who's this?"

Boton got up and moved to wards Keiko, grabbing her hands,

"Keiko-san it's so nice to meet you in my own body. I just wanted to say how great a person you are. When I saw you making your way through those flames to save Yusuke, I just about melted in my shoes." She blabbered.

Harry's hand met his face and Yusuke's eyebrow twitched.

"Do I…know you?" Keiko wondered.

"I hope you don't mind me saying, but with his spirit energy…" Boton was cut off when Yusuke nocked her over the head and pulled her aside.

"Wha! What was that for?" she hissed.

"Keiko doesn't know anything about you or spirit world. Play it cool, okay." Yusuke said in a hushed voice.

"Oh that's right." Boton realized, "But if you ask me, things are about to get complicated if you don't tell her soon." She quickly wrapped up the empty lunchbox and handed it back to Harry.

"Thank you, Harry. I'll see you after school." She waved.

Keiko looked at her over her shoulder as she left.

"Tell me what soon?" she asked.

"Damn…" Yusuke growled, "She just had to bring you in on this, didn't she…"?

Harry rolled his eyes,

"It's not like it's a big deal, Yusuke." Harry smirked, "Or are you just scared of Keiko knowing you've finally decided to take on some responsibility for a change."

"What?" Keiko asked bewildered.

Harry smirked,

"You see, Keiko…" His mouth was promptly covered by Yusuke's hand.

"I swear, one minute you're helpful and the next you're pure evil." He said looking panicked.

Keiko raised an eyebrow,
"What does he mean, you took responsibility?"

"Uh, nothing!" Yusuke said quickly, then he quickly drew away his hand, "Ew, Harry that's so gross!"

Harry rolled his eyes again,

"Serves you right. I don't want to lick your hand again, thank you. And why does it smell like cheese?"

"How the hell should I know?" Yusuke sneered.

"It's your hand." Harry pointed out dully.

Realizing she wasn't going to get anything out of Yusuke she turned away,

"Well, I just wanted to tell you about the book report so you don't get into trouble." She turned to leave.

"Wait, Keiko stop. I wanna talk to you." He said in an almost growl.

Keiko did stop though and partially turn around,

"You do?"

Yusuke looked off to the side,

"How'd you like to…do my homework?"

Harry clipped him over the back of the head,

"Idiot. Keiko, ignore him. Yusuke, if I hear you talking like that again, you won't be getting any more bento lunches out of me."

Yusuke pouted,

"But we're gonna be busy and…"
Harry smiled, and Yusuke shivered,

"U-um, I mean…I'll have the book report handed in by tomorrow…in fact I'll do it now. See you, Keiko." He ran out of there, hightailing it down the stares and Keiko's jaw dropped slightly.

Harry tilted his head,

"That was odd, it's almost like he saw a ghost or something."

Keiko just looked at Harry incredulously,

"You have to teach me how to do that." She said.

Harry blinked a few times,
"Do what?"

...

00000000000000000000000000000

...

On Saturday Harry and Yusuke were climbing up one of the tallest flights of stares Harry had every seen.

It was a stone stairway that lead up to a temple that seemed to be emitting a high concentration of purifying energy.

Yusuke was huffing and puffing, though not due to fatigue, mainly do to anger.

"Oh, stop it, Yusuke." Harry rolled his eyes, "I know it's a three-day weekend and all, but this is pretty important."

Yusuke snorted unattractively,

"I can't believe Boton suckered me into this."

"Here we go…" Harry sighed.

It had started only yesterday. Boton had explained to them that they had a new mission. Infiltrate a gathering of students who wanted to become apprenticed to Genkai. Of course, only one could actually be her apprentice. Genkai was one of the most renown psychics in the world and she was holding a competition to find the best student to take on at her temple. Apparently, she had some sort of secret power that was coveted by many. And that meant both humans and demons.

Rando, a demon who disguised himself as a human made a hobby of finding human masters to apprentice himself to, then slaughtered his teacher after learning their techniques.

Koenma seemed to think that Rando was going to be at Genkai's competition and it was up to Yusuke and Harry to stop him.

"I don't get what you're complaining about Yusuke." Harry said, "I'm not the one getting a ticket to a battle match at the Tokyo dome all expenses paid for by spirit world. Actually, I'd say you're getting more out of this than you put in. Not only do you get a teacher, but you also get to see one of those fighting things you keep going on about."

"It's a mixed martial arts tournament." Yusuke corrected, "And you're a martial artist yourself, why aren't you more into that stuff."

Harry shot him a dull look,

"After seeing Yoruichi fight, my old teacher, that stuff on television just doesn't compare."

Yusuke paused,

"Your teacher?" he wondered, and Harry had a feeling he was imagining some sort of muscular, beefed up guy in chainmail or something. He wasn't about to correct him, finding it rather amusing.

"Yes, Yoruichi Shihoen." Harry nodded, "That was my teacher's name…at least one of them. I travel a lot, so I've sort of been going from teacher to teacher. Getting my education where I can. Yoruichi though probably made the most impact on me. I already had a fighting style when I found her. But as soon as I started training under her, I got faster and stronger right off."

"Huh, you know, I haven't heard you talk much about the past, Harry." Yusuke said.

"I don't hear you talk much about yours either." Harry pointed out.

They both paused, Harry stopping right behind Yusuke who was staring at the strong energy that acted almost as a gateway between two tresses tied with rope around them and overhead.

"Okay…" Yusuke said, "Well, once I don't get chosen I'll pretend it doesn't exist." He pulled at the bag over his shoulder and continued walking up the stairs.

"If you do get chosen, you get free training." Harry pointed out.

"I have you for that." Yusuke said lazily.

Harry sighed,

"Not all my techniques will work for you though, Yusuke." Harry said calmly, "And I think that this master might be better able to help you advance your own unique abilities."

Yusuke just rolled his eyes and turned away,

"You sound like Keiko, always nagging me." He mumbled.

They reached the top to see a large crowd of fighters gathered around, all dressed in some sort of battle outfit, and all looking very competitive. Though many of them were rather…eccentric-looking, as summed up by Yusuke's comment of,

"Haven't seen this many freaks since that comic book convention."

"See, so many people have gathered here just from word of mouth. Most of these fools don't even know Genkai." Someone commented from the crowd.

"Even dogs can smell something good." Another fighter said, obviously sharing the sentiment.

"Urameshi!" someone called behind them.

They both turned and Yusuke let out a gasp when he saw Kuwabara approaching. The redhead noticed Harry's presence and grinned,

"Hey, Harry. Nice to see you here. Oh, uh, thanks for helping me again with my math." He said quickly.

"No problem." Harry nodded, he'd been helping Kuwabara after school in his free time.

"Uh…but what are you two doing here?"

"We've got good reasons." Yusuke said, "Unlike some people."

"You think I don't?" Kuwabara said, then crossed his arms, "Okay, I'll tell ya. It seems my power to see ghosts and spooky stuff has gone up greatly in the past few weeks and it's getting to the point where I can't even concentrate on my fighting, you know? Then I heard that Master Genkai can fix up the symptoms, so I came here to pay her a visit. But look at this line!" he said looking around at all the people there.

Yusuke looked at him doubtfully,

"Hey, now look. I know you need therapy. But are you sure this lady's into that?"

"Yusuke, don't be mean." Harry scolded.

"Nah, it's alright, Harry." Kuwabara said, "And don't be such an ignoramus, Urameshi!" He poked his finger up against Yusuke's nose, "Master Genkai is hugely famous and happens to be master of the great spirit wave technique! She can do anything to a person's spirit, and that includes turning the volume way down on mine."

Yusuke looked away,

"Uh…right, spirit wave." He looked off to the side, trying to pretend he knew what Kuwabara was talking about.

"You weren't listening to Boton, were you." Harry said unamused, he let out a sigh. Oh well, it wasn't like he was the one going in ill informed.

Kuwabara grabbed Yusuke by the collar and yelled,

"This isn't school, so don't pretend that you're not a doofus!"

Yusuke just grinned.

The sound of a drum quieted the crowd.

"Quiet everyone."

"Genkai must be coming…"
The murmurs of warning quieted and the doors to the temple slowly slid open.

"My, my…quite a crowd." A raspy female voice echoed around them, yet Harry knew instinctively that the origin was from that entryway.

An old woman in a red dress with a long white sleeved shirt underneath and green pants, tied with a darker green belt around her waist, came walking out of the temple. She wore a strange-looking black hat on her head.

"That little old hag is Genkai?" Yusuke asked skeptically.

But Harry could feel a steady and trained amount of reiki radiating off of her.

"Alright then, I suppose we should get things started." The old lady said.

Some of the people began murmuring nervously about how difficult the tests were likely to be.

"The first of your screening tests will be…" The crowd all waited in anticipation, "The drawing of lots."
Several people fell over, and Harry looked around wondering what was wrong.

"You don't find anything wrong with that, Harry?" Yusuke's eyebrow twitched.

"Should I?" Harry wondered.

"I have a feeling I shouldn't comment." Kuwabara muttered under his breath.

"Everyone must draw a lot from this old jar." Genkai said pointing to the jar by her side, "Come now, we haven't all day." She said in a 'chop chop' sort of way.

"Figures, the old lady's up and gone senile." Yusuke mumbled.

"I doubt she'd chance something like that on lots, Yusuke." Harry rolled his eyes, "The paper inside is likely a sort of…reiki litmus paper. Changing color for those with a certain amount of reiki…probably."

Yusuke blinked, then looked at Harry a bit impressed by the deduction,

"So…that's why you weren't surprised?"

Harry shrugged,

"Why would I be surprised? It's a clever way to separate those with real reiki power and those without." Harry shrugged, "Although, my power isn't actually reiki…I wonder if it will even work." He hummed.

"I guess we'll find out." Yusuke said.

They all began to form a line. Harry was not so happy when a man standing behind him began to mouth off,

"What's a girl like this gonna do against all us fighters." He sneered.

Yusuke froze, when Harry turned around, smiling.

"I'm sorry…did you say something?"

The man's eyes went comically wide,

"N-no…nothing at all!" he squeaked.

"Oh?" Harry wondered, "Pardon me then, it appears that I'm hearing things." He turned back to Yusuke who seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Kuwabara drew his lot first, Yusuke went second…then Harry.

Once everyone had a lot, Genkai came up on her higher platform, walking forwards,

"You did that fairly well…I'm impressed."

Harry could tell that she really wasn't.

"Let's all open our lots now. If the paper inside it is red, then congratulations. You have passed the first of today's screenings."

No one wasted any time. Yusuke and Kuwabara opened up their papers and Yusuke let out a cry of shock.

"Well lucky me, I won." Both said at the same time.

Harry just raised an eyebrow and opened up his own envelope. The paper inside it had turned green, and now it was fading into a strange, dark red.

"Well, I guess I'm still in." Harry said, holding up the now red paper.

"Those who won, please follow me." Genkai said turning around, "Those who lost, please get lost."

Harry's lips twitched into a smile. She certainly had a way with words.

"Hold on!" Two very large men approached Genkai angrily.

Genkai turned around bored, the simple gesture saying something along the lines of 'I have no time for idiots.'

"We are two of the most powerful fighters among the Kyushu mountain people." One of them declared.

"We've come all this way because we heard you could make us greater. You can't turn us away with a piece of paper!" the other one growled.

"Do you not see how big we are? You have to give us a fair shot!"
Genkai cleared out her ear with her index finger, not amused by the display,

"The only difference with larger fighters is that they're louder when they whine." She glared up at them, "Can't you blockheads understand I'm just trying to save you from embarrassment!"
Both the men started to growl, obviously misinterpreting what she was trying to get at.

"This probably is beyond your comprehension, but if you're really ready for my training then why didn't your paper turn red?" she said.

"See." Harry shrugged looking at Yusuke.

But neither Yusuke nor Kuwabara were paying him any mind anymore. Their eyes, like everyone else's were on Genkai and the two mountain warriors.

The two thugs lunged at her, only for Genkai to release her reiki, sending them both flying back, knocked out.

"W-what…what was that!?" Kuwabara cried.

"That was just Genkai's release." Harry said.

"Release?" Yusuke asked Harry who simply nodded.

"She released her reiki energy. It wasn't an attack, and I doubt that was all her power either." Harry hummed, looking rather thoughtful.

"Okay, now I'm interested." Yusuke said, looking back up at Genkai, "You're saying that's not an attack?"

Harry shook his head,

"It wasn't. The more you train your reiki, the more it's going to be able to affect those around you, or the more people will feel it, so to say. You have that ability as well, Yusuke, but right now, if you were to release your reiki, it would be like…throwing a bucket of water at whoever's nearby. It might make them cold, but that's about it. Master Genkai though…she's got an ocean behind her."

"So, you're saying I've got a bucket and she's got an ocean." Yusuke summed up, "Can I get more…water?"

"Yes." Harry said, "But you'd have to train your reserves. I've deepened them a little from what they were like before, but that's about the extent you can do without proper training." He shot Yusuke a look, "And I know for a fact that you haven't been doing any of the exercises I've given you."

"What?" Kuwabara asked looking at Harry, "Are you saying you've been teaching Yusuke to do stuff like that? Why don't you teach me?"

"You want me to teach you?" Harry asked him, "I was only helping Yusuke because he's been fighting demons in his spare time. He's not a very good student though. If you want, I'll teach you. Yusuke kinda sucks anyway."
"Hey!" Yusuke protested.

Harry shrugged,

"It's true."

"Alright you red papers," Genkai announced, "Please follow me." She began walking down the wooden walkway and everyone there quickly followed after her, suddenly a lot more eager to become her apprentice.

Yusuke rolled up his sleeve and checked his demon compass watch. Only it began blinking and going crazy, spinning around and around until it exploded.

"Geez, so much for trusty." Yusuke said, looking down at the watch.

Kuwabara turned around,

"Looks like you bought a crappy watch." He commented.

"Don't worry, Yusuke." Harry said slowly, "I can tell who Rando is with my spirit ribbon technique." He smiled slightly, "Did you know? A demon's spirit ribbon is purple. A human's is white, and a wizard or sorcerers is green. Oh, and a Shinigami's spirit ribbon is red." Harry had checked it out, and Boton's ribbon actually was red, just like the ones in Ichigo's world.

"Really?" Yusuke asked, "What about a ghosts?"

"Still white if they're a human spirit. Only difference being that they feel a bit different." Harry added.

"Spirit ribbons?" Kuwabara asked curiously.

"It's a special technique that's used to track people down." Harry explained, "However, in order to track a person, I have to have felt their reiki or yoki first. It will work though if I'm just trying to discern whether or not a person is human though." He added at Yusuke's sceptical look.

"So you can tell who it is?" Yusuke asked him.

"Well, I'm going to wait a while to do it, but yes." Harry confirmed.
