Disclaimer: I don't own a damn thing from Inuyasha and Harry Potter. Enjoy.

The train ride to Hogwarts went along smoothly. Inuyasha and Miroku got to know Harry and the others more. As night arrived, the Hogwarts Express stopped in a a town where outside of the train, awaited a man dressed in pitch black robes, had greasy black hair, and pale white skin. As the all of the kids and teens exited the train, they were all separated by the pale man.

"All first years this way immedietly." Said the man.

"I....think....I'm gonna be sick." Gagged Inuyasha as he caught the man's sent.

"What's wrong with you?" Questioned Fred.

"Him!"

"You mean Professor Snape?"

"Yes."

"Who is Professor Snape?" Questioned Miroku.

"He's the head of Slytherin house and he's also the Potions teacher."

"Not a cheerful fellow I presume."

"You've got that right."

"Well....hello ladies would you be so kind as to help me out?" Started Miroku as he saw a group of girls walk past him, the twins, and Inuyasha.

"Your attitude is really unbecoming of a priest." Said George.

"I'm just taking in the beauty of this town."

"Take it in later." Sighed Fred as he and Inuyasha dragged Miroku into a large carriage.

Despite the protests of Miroku, the carriage and others like it took off towards a enormous castle where they were all dropped off at. When they reached the entrance to the school, they were greeted by the ghostly apparation of a middle-age man whom was wearing a robe which looked as if it were tatered and frayed at the edges. Before the ghost could speak, he was interupted by a piece of paper flying through his head. The source of the distubance, one Draco Malfoy. Unable to put up with the actions of Draco, Inuyasha pushed his way up through the crows were he promptly bopped the spolied Slytherin on the head, much to the amusement of everyone minus the majority of Slytherins. Once he was able to stop himself from laughing, the ghost man led the students into a grand dining hall where they were the ceiling looked as it did outside, and candels were suspended in the air. At the end of the dining hall, was a large oak table were a multitude of teachers sat. As Inuyasha, Kagome, and Miroku were about to be seated, they were stopped by Professor McGonagall whom at that same moment arrived with a group of younger students behind her.

"Lady McGonagall how good it is to see you again." Greeted Miroku as he bowed.

"Hey hag." Snorted Inuyasha.

"Sit!" Ordered Kagome as Inuyasha was driven into the ground.

"Nice to see you three again." Said McGongall as she looked at the three Shard Hunters.

"Why did you stop us?'

"You have to be sorted first."

"Sorted?"

"Yes, now come along."

Professor McGonagall led the group to a stool where a dusty old hat sat. Once everyone was near, the hat jumped to life and began to sing for a few minutes and stopped as it was rewarded with the applause of the entire hall. Inuyasha could only blink in shock.

"Now I've seen everything." Said Inuyasha.

"You haven't seen Kagome.." Started Miroku but he didn't get to finish as Inuyasha drew his sword and wapped Miroku's head with the flat side of the blade.

"Quite priest."

"Usually we would start our sorting ceremony off with the sorting of our first years, but tonight we will sort three new students whom have transferred here from Japan. When I call your name step forward...Inuyasha." Said McGonagall as the hanyou stepped forward but stopped as the hat shouted out one word.

"SLYTHERIN!" The entire hall went silent in shock and at the table where the Slytherins sat, Draco paled in fear.

"Feh, whatever." Said Inuyasha as he tucked his arms inside of his robe and walked off towards the table where all of the SLytherins sat but not before giving Draco an evil grin which caused the latter to collapse.

"....Moving on Higurashi, Kagome."

"GRYFFINDOR!" Shouted th hat as it was placed on Kagome's head after a few moments of consideration.

"Next we have...Miroku." Said McGonagall as the sorting hat was placed upon Miroku's head.

"GRYFHNERIN!" Said the hat to the confusion of everyone in the hall.

"What?"

"Gryfhnerin, what the the bloody hell is Gryfhnerin? Questioned Ron.

"I think the hat is confused on wether to put Miroku in Slytherin or Gryffindor." Said Hermione.

"Confused?"

"Yes, Kagome what is Miroku's personality like?"

"Well he's kind, caring, gentle and very brave...but he's also a letcher, con-artist, and theif among other things." Said Kagome as she described Miroku.

"No wonder."

After few minutes the sorting hat was able to make a valid descision.

"GRYFFINDOR!"

"Finally." Said Fred.

After the sorting of the shard hunters, the rest of the students were sorted immediatly. After the sorting ceremony was completed, Dumbledorer stood and rose his arms to speak .

"Now students I would like for you to settle down, I have some snnouncements for you all to hear. First, despite the protests that I have recived from the Ministry and some parents, I have reinstated as your Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Remus Lupin; Secondly, until the return of Hagrid, the Care of Magical Creatures class will be taught by one of my oldest friends....."

"Sorry I'm late Albus." Shouted a voice which caught everyones attention.

"Who's that?" Said Ron.

"He's cute." Said a random girl.

"He doesn't seem all that." Snorted Draco whom shut up as Inuyasha glared at him again.

"That guy looks funny." Said another boy.

"Shippo!" Shouted Inuyasha as he bounded over the tables and landed in front of the fox demon.

"Hiya Inuyasha...." Said Shippo before he was whapped upside the head by Inuyasha.

"Stupid, after being around me and my brother you still end up getting hurt."

"Hey I was caught by surprise!"

"Feh, for being a full-blooded demon you sure can't fight like one."

"Oh yeah, at least I'm full-blooded unlike you Inuyasha, You filthy, unkempt, crude hanyou."

"Now I know you picked up that haughty attitude for my brother."

"So you aren't as stupid as you seem."

"...Hey that was insult!"

"It was merely the truth."

"Why I oughta..."

"SIT!" Ordered Kagome.

"Geh...."

"It's good to see you again Shippo."

"It's good to see you again Ka..I mean Lady Kagome." Smiled Shippo as he took Kagome's hand and kissed it.

"Becoming quite the charmer I see."

"Well..." Blushed the fox demon.

"Come on Shippo, you can tell your old friend how you've been doing with the ladies." Said Miroku.

"Better than you."

"That was a low blow." Cried Miroku as the old firends began to talk once despite everyone in the Great Hall observing them.
