Chapter 8
Ambush and Surprises
November arrived and Quidditch season was starting again. The detectives were all busy with something. Harry, Yusuke, and Hiei were busy with practice. Kurama and Touya would get ambushed by fan girls whenever they left by themselves to the library. In the end Hermione had to go because she was the only smart person besides the other two.
The gang also had tons of homework. Then to top it all off Genkai and Toguro insisted on training every night for two long hours.
One night the gang was just finishing their homework. "This is boring," complained Yusuke. "Finish it anyway," said Keiko in a you-better-finish tone. Yusuke saw Keiko's face and decided it would be best if he didn't complain anymore.
Suddenly from outside there were two bangs. The gang stood up just as the portrait opened. Genkai, Toguro, and Dumbledore walked in. "What happened," asked Harry? "Genkai and I sensed a presence on the grounds and we reported it to Dumbledore," said Toguro.
"We just came up when the two bangs were heard," said Dumbledore. Albert recommended the gang to split up and check out both bangs, which happened to be on opposite sides of the school.
After a lot of fighting over who should be in which group, it was finally decided. In one group were Hiei, Inuyasha, Touya, Tommy, Toguro, Jin, Ron, and Yusuke. The other group was Lance, Albert, Genkai, Hermione, Harry, Kurama, Mitarai, and Kuwabara.
Toguro's Group
Toguro's group went to the North side of the school. Hiei and Inuyasha arrived first since they were the fastest. On the grounds was a huge crater. Foolishly Hiei and Inuyasha went to check it out. Immediately a force field went up trapping them.
Toguro and the others arrived to see the barrier go up. "Fools," muttered Toguro. "Ah, I'm not going to worry about those two. They'll beat whoever's in their," said Yusuke in not worried tone. Toguro shook his head. Yusuke still had a lot to learn. Nevertheless he sat down and watched the two fighters look around puzzled.
"Stupid traps," said Inuyasha. Hiei nodded his head and agreed. The two had become friends since the first year (Probably because of their shared 'views' on humans) and they didn't mind working together. Then from in front of them a mysterious masked person appeared from the ground. "Who are you," asked Hiei. The figure mumbled something, and then disappeared.
He reappeared behind them. "Our swords. He has them," said Inuyasha. Hiei checked for his katana, but it was missing. He scowled, but didn't make any foolish moves. "There will be no weapons in this fight," said the person. "Why, you scared we'll beat you," said Inuyasha. The stranger paused for a second, but then continued. "No," said the stranger. "In this area created by my employer any person, including me, using a weapon will lose his soul.
Hiei's eyes widened as he remembered the last time he lost his soul. It was against Kaitou. He had said the word hot because he was trying to brag. "I will not make that mistake again," thought Hiei. Meanwhile the stranger was done explaining things. He tossed the weapons to the side and attacked.
Inuyasha dodged his punches and then tried to counterattack. The stranger easily blocked the attacks with one hand. Further back Hiei was taking off the bandage on his arm. "Dragon of the Darkness Flame," he yelled. The black dragon left its master and headed for its prey. Inuyasha jumped out of the way and joined Hiei.
Outside the other group was running towards them. "Hey guys," said Harry. "Looks like they were caught too," he said when he noticed the barrier.
"So who did you guys fight," asked Touya. "I, Kazuma, saved your friends from the evil Naraku," said Kuwabara. Lance knocked him out and told them what really happened. Kuwabara had walked into the crater and got trapped. Then the Naraku dude appeared and started fighting him. Kuwabara was getting beat up, but then got lucky and sliced him with the Spirit Sword.
Albert was watching the fight with Tommy. "Hey Tommy, remember that guy. We killed him like two years ago," said Albert.
Inside the stranger had caught the dragon and was basically holding it. Then he sent it back at Hiei. While he was watching Hiei absorb the dragon, Inuyasha sneaked from behind him and punched him. The attack didn't hurt him, but it knocked his mask off.
Albert, Tommy, and Lance gasped when they saw the identity of the fighter. It was Lloyd, one of their old friends. "Who is he asked," Harry asked? Albert explained they had fought him two years ago. His name is Lloyd," said Lance. "How come he didn't recognize you guys when you fought him," asked Yusuke? Because he didn't recognize us," said Albert. The whole gang looked confused. Albert let Tommy explain while he telepathically got Lloyd's attention.
Tommy explained to them that Albert and he were almost killed in a war. Like Kurama they looked for a body to live in. Before they died, Albert was known as Lacroa and he was called Tommy. They had both looked different then. Lloyd was one of their friends. Lance was as well.
Inside the barrier Lloyd was talking to Albert. At first he didn't believe Albert was telling him the truth, but was convinced eventually. He let down the barrier and went over to his old friends.
Watching all of this happen was Zorco, Sensui, and the four remaining masked fighters. "Damn that traitor," said Zorco. "He will pay. Don't worry Zorco," said the person in red. "You'd better for your sake," replied Zorco angrily.
Lloyd went back with the gang and he was introduced to everyone. With everything back to normal the gang sat down to finish their homework. Hermione, who was finished, brought up the subject of the writing on the wall. Albert recommended she ask McGonagall next time they have Transfiguration.
