---Time of the Three Jewels---

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho and Inuyasha!

Sorry for the wait! I'm still thinking of ideas for this one, so it's really hard to maintain lots of stories!

It's also really hard trying to juggle two storylines in one single story! .

Chapter 9: When You Just Confess It All

Lunchtime…

"Yes, I didn't want to tell you this just yet, but I suppose I could tell you now. Well, Midoriko was practicing moves with Sango and I, when she stopped and told us that she was going to say something very important…"

---------------------------------------------------------------Flashback--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Whew, what a workout!" Sango sighed, lying down on the grass.

"I'd have to agree with you there…I could go with a drink" Kagome smiled, turning to look at the person she considered as a sister. Conjuring up 2 glasses of apple juice, she handed one to Sango, who accepted it gratefully, "I'll teach you how to do that when I have some time"

"Thanks"

"Ok Sango, Kagome…" Midoriko started.

The two girls looked up and strangely felt a connection to her, as if they've known her all their lives, but how? Setting that stray thought aside, they turned their attention back to the powerful miko.

"I've got something very important to tell you…" she paused, waiting for them to get comfortable.

"You are…a representative of an element"

Sango and Kagome gave her a questioning look, "Whaa…?"

"A representative of an element goes to meetings with the gods and talk to them and try to maintain peace with the world. You also have that ability, as everyone else has the ability, and your goal is to keep the balance of nature"

The two girls held a blank look on their faces.

Midoriko sighed, this would be harder than she thought, "Which means that you'll have to go to conferences and maintain peace and THAT overall means that you're second level to a god"

"So…is there a catch to this?" Sango asked nervously.

"Yeah, I want to know this too. And why are you teaching us all this 'wand magic'?" Kagome added in.

"Oh, I can't tell you that" she winked, "But you should put it to good use. That was your wish, wasn't it? It can spawn in different ways"

Even if they didn't understand what she was saying, the two absorbed the words nonetheless.

"Alright, your powers will unlock sometime soon and when it does, a week after that happens, you will have to attend your first conference. Don't worry, when the time comes, you'll know how to get there. Feel free to bring anyone you want, although you have to trust them with your heart"

----------------------------------------------------------------End Flashback-------------------------------------------------------------

"And that's why that happened during the battle. I want to ask you if you'd want to come too!" Kagome explained, playfully poking him in the chest.

"Why, I would be honored to be in your presence and attend with you" Kurama told her in mock honor.

They both laughed.

"So then the conference will be in 4 more days. It looks like I'll have to inform Albus that we'll be gone for a day at the least"

"Hai, arigato for trusting me so much"

"Hey! It's no problem! Besides, a mate-to-be has to trust the other, ne?"

Kurama chuckled, "Yes…"

Kagome looked up, "Who's that? I'm never seen him around" she said, pointing a finger at a thin, nervous looking man with a purple turban wrapped around his head.

"Oh, that's Professor Quirrel. ((Sp? Oh, well lol)) He's supposed to be one of the other teachers here. He's always somewhere else when you're trying to look for him. I find him pretty suspicious, actually. He always stutters too…"

"Really…? He does kind of look untrustworthy…"

"Yes"

"I'll keep an eye on him, just in case" Kagome announced.

Kurama looked at her, "Just be careful" he warned.

"Yes, I will try to be. But this might be the safety of our school too"


Griffindor Common Room…

After a while, Yusuke lost track of time and dried his tears. It felt as if someone had taken a dagger and stabbed him a thousand times, and then left him there to die.

"Get over it Yusuke, she wasn't worth it anyway" he tried to convince himself.

Absently, the boy checked the clock with his blurry vision; thinking it was now time for potions class, when really, it was time for herbology.

"Aww damn, it's the middle of class. I'm going to get into trouble-" Yusuke thought over what he just said, "Hey, wait a minute, since when did I ever care about getting to class on time? I must be getting delusional…" he muttered.

Yusuke grabbed his books and took the route to the potions class. Oddly, when he got outside of the door, he didn't hear anything inside. Pushing the door open, he came in.


Potions Classroom…

"Hello?"

Yusuke had entered the classroom to find that no one was there, "Whaa…?" he checked the clock again, "Damn! It's herbology now, not potions!"

Turning around, he was about to walk out the door when he heard a sobbing sound coming from the office. The curiosity getting the better out of him, Yusuke creaked the door open a little.

"Professor…?"

The woman slumped down on the table whirled around and faced the door, ready for an attack. When she saw who it was, Sango relaxed her stance, "Oh, hello Yusuke, where were you today?" she rubbed her eyes.

"In the dorm room. I had a…bad morning…" he mumbled, "Are you ok professor?"

Sango chucked, "Call me Sango. I'm not used to all this formal crap. And yes, I'm fine" she gave a small sigh and smiled at him, "If you need someone to talk to, feel free to talk with me. I think I'd understand you"

"Sure…Thanks a lot" Yusuke answered, suddenly feeling much better, "Bye!"

"Bye Yusuke!"

She watched as he exited the classroom and down the hall to wherever he was going to go. Sango, for some reason, felt better already. Smiling, she prepared the materials for the next class.


Sorry for updating so late! I said to myself 'I'll get it done tomorrow', but that was on Monday. I'm so screwed up on my deadlines…

Anyways, Sayonara!
