Hogwarts School of Detectives
Chapter 5: An Interesting First Day
Dee-sklim-mar: I do not own Harry Potter or Yu Yu Hakusho. If I did, I'd be lying on the beach right now.
Cat: Yes, I'd love to give feedback but there's no time! I have to update!! Uchida, where are you? Come on, review! Even if it takes 20 years!

"HavingtroubleUrameshi?"
"No." Yusuke replied coolly, stuffing his necessary items into a bag..
"Yusuke now may not be a good time to mention this, but, aren't you surprised to know you're a demon?" Kurama asked, slinging his bag over his shoulder.
"Not really."
"And what about Koenma, don't you think it's kind of strange that he never said anything about this?"
"Yeah, that is kinda weird. And what about Kuwabaka? How does he staying school all year while still going here? Sure, he was absent a lot, but still…"
Yusuke walked to his next class, which according to his schedule, was…
~*~*~*
Yusuke ran through the hallway, while the talking portraits yelled bogus directions to confuse him. There was murmured conversation about Harry. Yusuke didn't see what the big deal was. A spirit had probably protected him from death. All this attention was traumatizing the poor kid.
Kuwabara had warned him about moving and changing staircases that seemed to have personalities. And, there was one with a disappearing step. And, some portraits liked to be obnoxious. And, some of them where picky about letting people in. That was what Kuwabara had said.
Harry walked beside Yusuke, talking about Ron, but Yusuke wasn't listening. Suddenly, Peeves appeared in front of him, grabbed his nose, and yelled, "GOT YOUR CONK!" Followed by scream of pain from Harry. (Yes, I copied all the above out of the book, kill me) Peeves cackled evilly, then disappeared, while Harry rubbed his nose. Eventually, Harry split to follow Ron. Yusuke walked alone, hearing the sounds of shouting in the distance. Sounded like Harry got in trouble. His first class was Transfiguration.
Professor McGonagall began the class, Yusuke's first class ever in Hogwarts, by droning on about what will happen to troublemakers. Harry was late, but, he was lucky.
Professor McGonagall was head of Gryffindor house, but, she didn't seem to treat them any differently. If she did, Yusuke hated to think about how long her speeches must be in other houses.
Transfiguration was boring. It was as, Yusuke expected, mostly introductions. The only fun thing was turning a match into a needle. He overheard Ron saying his brothers had set fire to the room when they were given their matches a couple years ago.
Yusuke's match had changed a little, it was a bit thinner, and, the tips were a little pointy, but, his work was ignored. Mainly, because everyone was looking at Hermione's perfect needle.

In Hallway

Yusuke and Harry were walking side-by-side, and Harry was talking about how he got lost and went into the forbidden room. Or, at least tried, and nearly got thrown into a dungeon.
The next class was History of Magic, which, was, very few introductions, and, lots of this; "Blahblahblah…" Yusuke traded notes with Harry. The two of them had sort of become friends. It was during this class, Yusuke saw a feature he had never seen on Harry before. A thin, lightning shaped scar on his forehead. Yusuke almost stood up and said, "What is THAT!?" But that would be way too immature, so he just asked Harry in a note. Harry said it was the scar he had gotten when he was attacked by Voldemort. (Odd name)
The rest of the day was relatively boring. They were to have different schedules every day. The only weird thing was, the smell coming from Professor Quirrel, the Defense Against the Dark Arts Teacher's turban. Yusuke turned out to be pretty good at putting up with the smell, but, he stunk in this class. And, in Charms, during role call, when Professor Flitwick came to Harry's name, he toppeled right of the pile of books he was standing on.

Ever since the 'Food Fight' everyone in the Great Hall seemed to be sneaking
mini food fights here and there, like:
Tom throws potatoes at Jim.
Jim throws chicken at Tom.
Then they stop and continue eating. (What a terrible example!)
Kurama was writing in his journal, and Hiei was out and about, sneaking around in the dungeons. Kuwabara was doing what little homework he had. Yusuke had even less homework than Kuwabara.
Yusuke couldn't help but think everything was strange. Kurama was right, he hadn't known he was a demon, and, Koenma hadn't said anything. Strange…
Yusuke was interrupted by a wildly grinning face.
"GuesswhatUrameshi,McGonagallsaidI'materriblewizard. That'snotverynicenowisit?"
"Whatever Jin. Hey, Touya, I have Herbology tomorrow, couldja tell me what we have to do?"
"Hmm? Oh nothing, just introductions. And we have to test the fertility of soil."
Yusuke's eyes narrowed. Something wasn't right. And why was he in a room with his fellow Detectives? And Harry and Kuwabara…
Harry came through the door.
"Yusuke."
"Hmm?" Yusuke looked up from his book he had just opened.
"Professor McGonagall wants to see you in her office."
Great. Yusuke thought. He got up and headed for McGonagalls office, knowing he'd get lost along the way a few times.
