Chapter Eleven

Hermione and Ron gaped at Genkai. She stared calmly back.

They had arrived at the temple, gotten settled down, and had eaten. Then Genkai sat down and asked them what they would do if Voldemort had managed to kidnap Harry.

Ron and Hermione had replied that they would immediately notify the Order and rush to his aid.

Genkai then asked what they would do if Harry's kidnapping would benefit the side of the Light. And that was where they were now.

"I'll kill that bloody Snape if he so much as thinks about kidnapping Harry!" Ron roared, jerking out of his stupor and immediately jumping to conclusions.

Hermione sighed and shook her head at Ron. "I'm sure that Snape would never think of doing that," she said trying to placate him. Secretly, she was sure that there were times when Snape wished that he was allowed to use Harry to further secure his position.

"Anyway, what's the point of this conversation?" Ron asked. He seemed to have totally ignored Hermione, and was as hotheaded as ever.

Genkai sipped her tea. "How would you feel," she began, cautiously weighing her words, "if Dumbledore did give Snape permission to kidnap Harry and present him to the Dark Lord?"

"But Dumbledore would never do that! For all we know, Harry is the only person capable of defeating the Dark Lord!" Hermione cried.

"Then, what if Dumbledore gave Snape permission to kidnap Harry, providing he had a very good escape plan?"

"Well then, I guess…that would be different," Hermione said uncertainly. "As long as it's Snape, I guess that would be fine."

"Are you mad!" Ron yelped. "That snarky bastard hates Harry! He would just stand back and allow Voldemort to kill him, spy or not!"

"If Snape is found out, he would face a fate worse than death before he is allowed to die. He'd do anything to be free of the Dark Lord's service," Hermione was confident that Snape would never betray the Order.

"What if," Genkai interrupted, "Snape wasn't the only spy, and a different spy kidnapped Harry for the same reasons and under the same conditions?"

Ron and Hermione looked at each other rather than back at Genkai.

"Why do you ask that?" Hermione asked, looking bewildered.

Sighing, Genkai lowered her cup back onto the table, and started to explain the situation.

…………………..

Harry groaned and rolled over. He had just had the weirdest dream. He had gone to Spirit World with Hermione and Ron, met the Spirit Detectives, been attacked by Death Eaters, and kidnapped when trying to relieve himself. Then he had gotten chased by monsters and…

Harry sat bolt upright when he realized that it wasn't a dream. He looked surprised when he realized that he wasn't bound to any furniture. He was even more surprised when he surveyed his surroundings and found that he wasn't even on the same continent as before.

"What's going on here?" Harry muttered to himself. He thought he heard Ron's and Hermione's voices below, but decided he was hearing things. He figured that it was alright to become a schizophrenic after what he'd gone through in the last few hours.

There were no bars on the windows, and door didn't appear to have a lock on it, not that wizards actually needed locks. Harry didn't feel like trying to open that door, remembering the last time. He really wasn't in the mood to be hunted down and killed.

Harry remained sitting on the floor for a while, wary of touching anything in the room. After a while, he gathered up the courage to test some of the furniture. He headed for the bed first, then changed his mind and decided to try the chair. Although the bed looked comfortable, he didn't really feel like putting himself in a vulnerable position. And the bed would definitely do that.

Harry closed his eyes tightly, waiting for a curse to hit and transform him into a new or rare type of magical creature, or to change genders, or to be transported back in time to before his birth, or, God forbid, he suddenly became bonded to Snape. Harry shuddered at the thought.

When nothing occurred, Harry opened his eyes and stared around in amazement as nothing happened. It was just a normal chair. He jumped up and whooped in excitement. He stopped when the door opened and Ron, Hermione and an old woman with pink hair stared at him oddly.

"Umm, what's got you so happy? Is that chair laced with Cheering Charms or something?"

Harry stared at Ron in turn. "I don't think so," he said slowly.

……………………..

"So, that's why I'm here? But why can't you tell Dumbledore?" Harry asked. It was around seven at night (it had taken a while to convince Harry that he wasn't hallucinating) and Harry just wanted to curl up in a warm bed and sleep.

"Because we're trying not to alert many people about this. If we did, then Voldemort would soon discover that Yana and Mitarai are spies."

"Ah," Harry nodded sagely. "Wait, which one is Yana, and which one is Mitarai again?" Harry asked to the exasperation of Hermione and Ron.

Genkai got up from the table calmly when it seemed that she wasn't needed anymore, and the teenagers obviously wanted some time alone to discuss things. She needed to contact Koenma anyway.

…………….

"Finally!" Yusule exclaimed. The Reikai Tantei and the Order of the Phoenix had been sitting around the kitchen table, several maps spread over it, making suggestions and yanking out hair in frustration. And all in an effort to find one Harry Potter.

It had taken a few hours for them to finally locate him. The search wouldn't have taken as long if Hiei's Jagan hadn't been warded against. Whoever was keeping him must be incredibly powerful, knowledgeable, or both.

"Why would Voldemort establish a stronghold in Japan?" an order member asked.

Yusuke growled and glared at the man who he felt had insulted him. "Hey, you got a problem with Japan?"

The man backed away quickly when he saw Yusuke's eyes glowing a slight red.

"I'm sure that Mr. Thomas (1) didn't intend for that statement to be insulting," Dumbledore said soothingly.

"'Course I didn't; I was just wondering why…" Mr. Thomas trailed off when he saw another person glaring at him.

Any further comments were prevented by the arrival of a frantic looking blue-haired girl. If the hair color was weird, then the fact that she was floating on an oar was even weirder.

The Reikai Tantei jumped to attention (well, not exactly…) while the Order just sat there blinking. Moody had his wand out.

"How'd you get in here!" Fred shouted. Now that the shock was over, the Order was pulling themselves together, and trying to reach their wands without the girl noticing.

"Er, well…" Botan didn't get a chance to reply. Yusuke bombarded her with questions.

"Why are you here? Has Voldemort died!" Yusuke paused and thought for a moment. "Did Harry die? Is Spirit World…"

"Yusuke, calm down, please!" Botan cried. She had to tell Yusuke her news, otherwise…well, the Order shouldn't just go storming into Genkai's temple. It wasn't safe to do that!

"But, but," Yusuke abruptly stopped stuttering as Hiei's sheathed katana hit him on the back of the head.

"Continue," he said curtly, he and Yusuke trading glares.

"Uh, thanks, Hiei. Well," Botan hurriedly continued, seeing that Hiei was now glaring at her, "Harry is currently ensconced within Genkai's compound, so there's no need to go and attempt to rescue him."

Yusuke relaxed, but was marginally disappointed. He wanted to beat up some bad guys.

"Excellent, so, when do you think he can be back?" Dumbledore asked.

"Well, about that," Botan looked around nervously, thinking about how she would like to kill Koenma for placing her in these situations. "Genkai and Koenma were thinking of keeping him in Japan for the remainder of the summer."

This statement caused an uproar. There were shouts of disapproval, shouts of outrage, and people shouting for the hell of it. Dumbledore was among the few that remained quiet.

"Genkai," Dumbledore said musingly. He'd heard of her; she'd been famous when he had been Transfiguration professor. It might be useful…

"Yes, Harry should stay there," Dumbledore said calmly.

The shouting, which had almost stopped when Dumbledore spoke, resumed again, more loudly than before.

A/N: Well, there's really no excuse for my late update. So…:takes a deep breath: I'm really, really, really, really, really (goes on for several minutes) sorry!

1. Thomas is the last name of a kid in my school. I seriously lack any sort of creativity when it comes to names. That, and the character is based off of what I think he'd say. Just imagine him saying those sentences really quickly and with a Staten Island accent.

Reviews:

Bluesspark, kit-kit, and kuramafan58: I've noticed that 50 of the people who reviewed said that they were confused. I hope that this chapter clarifies things. Um, I didn't mean for it to be confusing, it just kind of accidentally happened. You wouldn't believe how many times I get confused…drives my friends nuts sometimes.
