Botan's Evil Twin: Another chapter! Yay! I also noticed that I spelled Kurama's last name wrong and that some of the punctuation is wrong. I'm sorry about that! I'll try to fix it! Also, PLEASE REVIEW! That's all!

Chapter 3 Thestrals and Poisonous Insects
"Run!" A knife was coming straight at her, but she dodged easily. "Run!" she shouted again. "I'll catch up with you later!" She unsheathed a sword, and killed the three demons that attacked her. Another attacked her from behind, but she threw a fireball at it. "Wait! I can't control fire! And this is not what my voice sounds like!"
"Go!" she screamed, though she didn't know why she had said that. It was like her body was controlling itself. She turned to the person standing next to her. It was one of the other transfers, Hiei. "Hiei?" A blast of energy was just about to slice him in half. She jumped, and pushed him out of the way. The blast cut off part of her braid. "I don't have a braid!" Suddenly, spears came flying at them. She turned around and
Hotaru woke up. She was shaking. It was only a dream.
~~~
"Hiei!" said a Hufflepuff. "Come on! We're waiting for you!" Last night, a group of Hufflepuffs had decided to make him part of their group. He couldn't stand any of them. They all talked too much! The only halfway decent one was the other Japanese transfer, Rini, and he could barely tolerate her.
"Hiei!" said Rini. She walked up to him. "We're going to miss breakfast. Hurry up!"
"I don't want to go with those idiots."
"Hey! That's not very nice! Everyone's just trying to be nice to you!" Rini said angrily.
"They're all a bunch of idiots."
"Well, if you don't like them you can come with me."
"Who'd want to go with you?"
"Fine then!" said Rini as she stomped toward the exit. "You can stay here!"
A Hufflepuff girl walked up to Hiei. "C'mon Hiei," she said with a big smile on her face. "Let's go!" Hiei looked at the girl and then looked back at Rini.
"Hn," he grunted. "Wait, stupid," he said to Rini. "I'm coming with you."

Yusuke sat at the Ravenclaw table next to Kuwabara. All the Ravenclaws were a bunch of dorks. Yusuke had nothing in common with them. Last night, all they did was talk about school. It was really ticking him off. Yusuke looked at his schedule:
Double Transfiguration w/Hufflepuff
Potions w/Slytherin
Lunch
Free Period
Defense Against the Dark Arts w/ all other Houses
Dinner
Astronomy w/all other Houses
Yusuke groaned. "I hate school!"
~~~
Botan and Yukina walked to their first class, Care of Magical Creatures, with Gryffindor. Last night had been horrible! They hadn't found out anything about Voldemort, and three Slytherins had tried to hit on them! They walked to the cabin at the edge of the forest and were greeted by a giant-looking professor.
"Hello class. Name's Professor Hagrid. Now, terday we're gonna be reviewin' things from las' year. Firs' we have..." Hagrid continued to talk about different animals from last year. Botan moved toward Kurama. "Koenma screwed up the personality necklaces," she whispered. "Your new job is to protect Harry. Also, watch those other transfers. There's something strange about them." Kurama nodded, and they turned back to the lesson.
Hagrid stopped talking and motioned for the class to follow him. "Now we¹re gonna ter look at some creatures yeh all learned abou' las' year." He turned, picked up an animal carcass, and walked into the forest. The class followed. Hagrid stopped and put the animal carcass on the ground. "They'll be comi' ou' soon." Suddenly creatures with dragonish faces, skeletal bodies, black wings, and long black tails came out from the trees. They were ripping the flesh off the carcass. Hotaru stared at the creatures. She had never seen anything like them. Kurama looked at them curiously. Botan made a face, and Yukina looked at them wide-eyed.
"Who can tell me what these are?" asked Hagrid. Harry raised his hand. "'Arry?"
"Only people who have seen death can see the thestrals," Harry said.
"Right," said Hagrid, "ten points ter Gryffindor. Now, raise yer hand if you can see 'em." Harry looked around. He was surprised to see that all of the transfers could see the thestrals. Last year only two other people had been able to see them.
"All righ' then," said Hagrid looking at the transfers. "All of you can see 'em. Okay, fer homework two feet of parchmen' abou' thestrals. Class dismissed." The Gryffindors walked to their next class, Herbology, with Hufflepuff. Botan and Yukina went to their next class, Potions.
"Hey Hotaru!" Harry called as he ran to catch up with her. "How did you like your first class?"
"It was very interesting," she replied. "I've never seen creatures like those thestrals before."
"Yeah," said Harry. "They are." He was turning red. "Er. If you don't mind me asking, who did you see die? I mean, since you can see the thestrals, then you must have seen someone die."
"Oh, I saw my mom die," she replied quietly.
"I'm sorry," said Harry. He remembered what it had felt like when Sirius died.
Kurama watched Harry and Hotaru. There was something strange about that girl. Last night, he had talked to Hiei through their telepathic link. Hiei had sensed some strange spirit energy coming from her, but it had seemed familiar to him. He looked at her again. Suddenly, he felt a twinge of spirit energy. His eyes narrowed. Where had he felt that before? He had to keep an eye on that girl.
~~~
Kuwabara walked to Potions class. Their first class, Transfiguration, had been really horrible! Every time he, Yusuke, or Hiei had tried a spell it didn't work. The wands were supposed to do any spell they wanted them to, but the wands only worked if the concentrated a lot of spirit energy into them. If a demon attacked him now, he would be dead. He had used most of his spirit energy trying to make his wand work. "This next class better not be half as bad as the first one."
~~~
Hotaru listened to Professor Sprout talk about the Blood Plant, a flower that drank the blood of animals for food. It was all very interesting. She couldn't believe that none of the sailor scouts had ever known about these things. She had never heard of any of these magical things before.
Then, something caught her attention. A bee-like insect was flying at Hiei, who was sitting next to her. It had a grayish-blue body, black wings, and glowing red eyes. For some reason, the insect looked dangerous to her. It flew closer to Hiei, and it seemed like it was going to sting him. She couldn't let the insect sting him. Something bad was guaranteed to happen.
Hiei's POV
I stared at the insect. It was an insect I had only seen once before. They were controlled by demons, and the people they stung were poisoned and died slowly and painfully. I couldn't dodge it because it would just come after me again. I could easily destroy it with fire, but everyone in the room would see. That would ruin the whole mission, and Koenma would probably have me thrown into the Reikai prison for a couple of centuries for that. But the insect was coming closer...
Normal POV
Hotaru couldn't think of anything else to do, so she reached over to swat the bug away, even though she knew it wouldn't work. As she raised her hand, Hotaru felt a warm energy in her palm. Suddenly, the insect disappeared in a small burst of smoke. Somehow, Hotaru knew she had caused it. She looked up and saw Hiei staring at her. Did he know about what had just happened? "What the heck is going on?"
