Okay, so what's happened so far? Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku, Sango, Shippou, and Kirara have gone through the magic well to the future and ended up in Hogwarts' newly installed well for… I dunno, water, perhaps… And Harry, Ron, and Hermione just watched them jump out of the well without the use of brooms. Needless to say, they might be just a BIT upset and/or nervous. Prepare for chapter 2!

Disclaimer: Shoot'n dang, what made ya think that? Of course I don't own these characters!

Harry Potter, though in shock, suddenly noticed Kagome… And I mean noticed. With a dreamy sigh, he-

Hermione grabbed him by the hair and yanked him backwards again.

"Ahem."

"What? Oh… Sorry."

It was at this moment in time that Snape returned with Dumbledore and gave a heaving jaw-drop gasp.

"What-did-you-do?" he mouthed at Harry in horror, staring at Inuyasha and the others, or rather at the larger form of Kirara, in what appeared to be fear.

"Nothing, professor," Harry mouthed back, watching in satisfaction as Snape began to shoot sparks out of his wand without meaning to.

Dumbledore seemed not to have noticed, and instead walked in a large circle around the new 'guests.' Kagome flinched nervously, wondering if there was something wrong, and why these two adults were clearly not dressed for their age. Bath robes and witch hats? How strange.

"E-excuse me," Kagome whispered. "Could you possibly tell us… Where we are?"

Dumbledore laughed.

"Of course not. This area is unplottable." Kagome blinked. She had never heard such a stupid excuse before. "But I can tell you that this is Hogwarts school for witchcraft and wizardry."

"Er… Ha, ha?" Kagome tried, unsure of how to answer this. Snape made a strange noise like an angry bird.

And so it was that the entire Inuyasha gang joined Hogwarts.

The first day began like any other Hogwarts day. Inuyasha and Kagome went to their first flying class, Miroku and Shippou went to Transfiguration, Sango put her "cat" (much to Kirara's annoyance) in the girls dorm and went to Defence Against the Dark Arts (DADA).

Inuyasha glared accusingly at his broom, as if ordering it to shred to pieces. Kagome stared as well, wondering if she should just go along with the joke. They got their instructions (yell 'up' and grab your broomstick) and began practice.

Inuyasha stuck his hand over the broom.

"…Up?" he tried, attempting to look casual, while a strange group of first-years stared at his kimono. The broom launched itself at his hand with such velocity that he was knocked backwards. Kagome laughed.

"How did you do that?" she asked, having tried the same trick unsuccessfully herself.

"Half-demons," Inuyasha grumbled. "Better than humans at everything."

"Are not," Harry said, flying up behind him on his own broomstick during his free period. Inuyasha blinked. "You can fly?" he gasped.

Meanwhile, Sango sat boredly in her class, watching the teacher wave around his "wand," as he called it. Lockhart strode over and inspected her carefully.

"Just happened to be wandering by," he said, unconvincingly. "Sango blinked in confusion. Who was this man and why was he talking to her? She put on her sweetest face and tried to reason with the man.

"Oh… I'm a new student and… I really don't know anything about this," she said with an embarrassed blush. Lockhart took this totally the wrong way.

"Well, perhaps I could just show you a few tricks?" he offered. "For instance-" He gave his wand a majestic wave. "The Avada Kedavra is…" He never got to tell her what it was, because the end of his wand suddenly blasted a green explosion across the room, killing Neville Longbottom instantaneously.

"He's dead!" Sango screamed, taking Neville's pulse. "You horrible monster!"

"Yes, well, that can sometimes happen," Lockhart answered sheepishy. Sango gave an anguished cry of confusion and general concern.

Miroku perched on the edge of his chair in Transfiguration. Shippou sat next to him, staring hard at Professor McGonogall. She was teaching them about animagi.

"An animagus is a witch or wizard who can transform his or her body into an animal."

"Professor," Miroku asked carefully. "Can you turn others into animals, too?"

"Certainly," she answered dryly, pointing her wand at Miroku, who instantly shrank into a frog which ribitted loudly. The class erupted into hysterical laughter. For a frog, Miroku still looked genuinely upset. Shippou poked him nervously.

"Frog prince!" somebody shouted from across the room, and shoved a little girl with black hair at Miroku the Frog.

"Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!" chanted the class. The frog receded into the back of the chair.

"C'mere, silly," the girl crooned, grabbing Miroku by the froggy legs, and kissed him. There were cheers.

"Oh! Oh!" Shippou shouted. "Like this?" Shippou poofed into a regular Miroku, causing a disturbing silence to fall on the room as everybody tried to figure out what happened.

Outside on the field, Inuyasha and Harry were in a heated argument about who could fly better on a broomstick.

"How can you say you're better if you've never even tried it before?"

"Half-demons are better at everything!"

"But you've never flown-"

"You just said you did it first try!"

"Yes, but I-"

"Cut it out," Kagome yelled furiously, pulling at her hair without noticing.

"Fine- I'll prove it!" Inuyasha yelled finally. "Up!" And he climbed onto his broom and shot into the air.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome called after him in frustration. Inuyasha zoomed and rolled, zigzagging wildly and still rising higher and higher. Finally, Kagome decided she had to do something. "…S-I-T!" she screamed at the top of her voice. Up overhead, Inuyasha's ears twitched as he heard the magic word. Suddenly, he plunged 50 feet, clutching his broom wildly. There were screams down below, the loudest from the teacher-

"They'll sack me for sure, oh, such stupid students-"

Inuyasha crashed to the ground. There was a loud splintering crack.

"Now he's broken something!" the teacher wailed bitterly.

"Shut up, old woman," Inuyasha growled, standing up and brushing off flecks of dust and slivered wood. The broomstick lay shattered at his feet.

"Half-demons," he grumbled, brushing past Harry and not noticing the other boy's satisfied, uncontrollable smirk. "Better at everything."

Yes, that was more interesting than the last chapter, wasn't it? Just to answer your questions and complaints, my one faithful reviewer Sir Gawain of Camelot, I would never kill Inu. And no Harry and Kagome pairings. In fact, no out-of-series pairings at all, since I'm trying to make what happens when both movies/shows/books/comics collide, not mate random people to send them on dates. Now, here's your scary sneek peek of chapter 3: Miroku just has to ask somebody that gosh darned famous question of his, Sango attempts Transfiguration class, Kagome meets the dead Neville Longbottom, Inuyasha wreaks havoc in DADA, Kirara and Shippou torment first years in Flying class... I hope this sounds like fun so far and that there are people out there enjoying my fan fic! Reviews pleeeeease!
