I wish I did, but I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Harry Potter.
Once everyone had exited the room, Genkai cleared her throat. "Harry, Shuuichi, first off, you both did fine work today," she began. "I'd just need each of you to separately explain to me what you did to counter the potion, and you may return to your next class." She looked to Kurama, and tilted her head towards the door. "Mr. Minamino, stay right outside the classroom until I've finished with Mr. Potter here."
Kurama gave her a small bow, and turned to leave; but not before he offered his friend an encouraging smile. Not even five minutes later, Harry appeared in the doorway.
"You're up," he said. "The professor said she won't count us tardy for the next class, so I'll go ahead and wait until you're done."
"Thanks," Kurama replied, entering the classroom, now empty of students. He shut the door firmly behind him.
"Kurama," Genkia said to him, now looking only too serious, "you should not have lended that boy your spirit energy."
"I was careful with portion size, Genkai," Kurama protested. "Besides, I can understand that you would choose me to be the first to test the serum, but Harry doesn't have enough energy in that area to defend himself. You could've easily forced him to say something that was not meant for the public."
"That still gives you no right," she scolded. "You were already drained of much of your spirit energy, and that can lead to carelessness, I would know. But because of your standing in the situation, you were careless. And what I mean by that is when you meant to give the boy your spirit energy, you also gave him demon energy."
Kurama felt his heart skip a beat. "I... I thought I-"
"You thought wrong," Genkai interrupted sternly, "and you can't retrieve demon energy once it is given. Harry Potter has demon energy coursing through his veins right as we speak, and unless you want the boy to die, I'd suggest you explain as to why you're here and teach him to control the kitsune side he'll soon possess."
"I'll tell him during the next Hogsmade trip," Kurama reported. "That will be in two weeks, but the demon shouldn't become active for at least another two months." He bowed half-heartidly and silently left the room.
"How'd it go?" Harry asked abruptly. Kurama had forgotten his friend was waiting for him in the hall. As they walked down to Transfiguration, he continued with, "She just told me, 'Well done. I can tell you're an excellant Defenst Against the Dark Arts student.'"
"Pretty much the same thing," Kurama responded, thinking, 'only much more different.'
"Kurama, I need a word alone with you," Hermione stuttered. "It's... erm... really important."
"Sure Hermione," Kurama said warmly. It was the weekend, and he and Hermione had already finished their assignments; unlike Harry and Ron, who were currently in the Griffindor Common Room, cluttered around books, quills, ink bottles, and papers.
Hermione led Kurama into an empty section of the library.
"Kurama..." she began, turning a light shade of pink, "will you... would you like to be my date to the Halloween Dance?"
The fox demon had already been asked that same question by close to three dozen girls, all whom he'd either ran away from or gracefully declined. Some girls were two grades in age difference, but apparently that didn't stop them from trying.
"I would love to be your date to the dance," he answered after a short pause.
"SERIOUSLY?" Hermione squeeled. A couple of sleeping portraits "shhh"ed her, and she blushed madly with embarrassed.
"Seriously," he confirmed calmly.
"Well, um... thanks." She leaned forward and gave the fox a quick peck on the cheek and pulled away. "Um.. I- I need to check on Ron and Harry... you know, they're probably goofing off..."
"I'll go with you then," stated Kurama. They exchanged grins and headed towards the Griffindor Dormitory, only to be stop rudely by none other than Draco Malfoy, accompanied by Crabbe, Goyle, and Yusuke Urameshi.
"You must be that new kid," Malfoy sneered. "Hanging with your Mudblood girlfriend now, are you? Even I would've expect you'd've the brains to choose better."
"Back off, Malfoy," Hermione warned, reaching for her wand.
"And what is Little Miss Perfect gonna do about it?" Malfoy dared.
"Nothing," Kurama stated sternly, "but if you start a fight, I'll have to instead."
Malfoy wrinkled his nose. "Like I'd waste my time on you bookworms," he laughed. Yusuke smirked along with Crabbe and Goyle, but when they turned to leave, he mouthed "sorry" over his shoulder.
'Excellant choice of friends, Yusuke,' Kurama sighed.
"'Bout time!" Ron exclaimed,springing up from the floor.
"What do you mean? You told us not to bother you until you and Harry had both finished with all you homework!" Hermion argued.
"I didn't expect you to listen to me!" Ron yelled, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "It's not like you've been known to ignore Harry and me failing!"
"How are things moving along?" Kurama asked quickly, suppressing a laugh.
"Thank goodness, we're almost done," Harry said, massaging his wrist. "My hand won't be able to move ever again if I do too much else with it."
"The teachers give everyone a break for Hogsmade weekends," Hermione added.
"Good. I'd go bloody insane if I didn't have breaks every once in a while," Ron complained. "Where should we go next weekend anyhow?"
"We'll just drink a couple of butterbeers and goof off like we always do," Harry said casually, as if he'd just been asked how the weather was. "You'll have a great time, Kurama. It's like a vacation in the middle of the schoolyear."
Kurama nodded approvingly. "I look forward to it," he said, then remembered that he'd have to inform Harry on why he was staying in Hogwarts School. That thought in mind wasn't at all what he'd wanted to do over the weekend, but it had to be done, or else Harry's body would be controlled by a demon.
"I heard that they'll be holding a special event in Hogsmade," Hermione said. "It sounds like it should be exciting."
"Cool," Kurama and Ron said together.
"Where'd you find that out?" Harry asked her.
"Rita Skeeter," Hermione chirped. "She's trying to work her way up to being 'famous' again, and I happened to have found her buzzing around on Muggle streets over my summer. She owes me big time."
"Did she tell you what the special event's gonna be?" Ron asked.
"She just said, 'It's going to be a once in a life time opportunity that you and your friends won't want to miss'," Hermione explained simply. "Sounds like it could be fun."
