I wish I did, but I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Harry Potter.
"You know, I didn't mean to turn the chap's tongue a different color," EnLaur said harmlessly as he approached Hermione and Kurama warmly. "I did attempt to color his hair, but that Urameshi opened his trap at the last second and his tongue went yellow. 'Course, the colors should fade away in a good hour or so."
"It's not exactly like we're complaining, you know," Hermione replied icily. She wasn't the one who run to one of Draco Malfoy's pals and try to help him out, after all.
"It's not that big of a complication, anyway," Kurama pointed out. "The spell is harmless. It's mainly used as a simple pranking curse, no permanent damage to the receiver. And like you said, it will wear off shortly."
"Yeah, you're right," EnLaur laughed. "But I guess that's just how I am. I don't want my prefect privleges stripped from me either. Oh!" He stuck out his hand. "The name's Whitney EnLaur. I don't think we've ever been acquainted."
"Shuichi Minamino," the fox shared, taking the seventh year's hand. "And this is Hermione Granger."
"Oh, yes! Your girlfriend, right?" exclaimed Whitney brightly. "Ginny's told me that you two look great together, and I've got to admit, she was right."
"Umm... well, thank you," Hermione blushed. "How do you know Ginny, anyway?"
"She's a good friend of mine," he explained easily. "I met her the dance. I ran into her while I was fetching myself a drink, and I introduced myself; we chatted for a while. She thought it was strange for me to be a Slytherin when I told her what houseI was in, but I'm glad to know that she won't judge people just for that account."
"Ginny's a lovely girl," Hermione agreed casually, hiding her surprise that a Griffindor in her fifth year had become friends with a Slytherin prefect. "She never tries to judge people just by how they appear."
"I wouldn't disagree with you, Miss Granger. She also told me that you Minamino were one of the most ingenius students at Hogwarts School."
"I'd expect that she'd be the one to say something like that," the kitsune nodded, remembering his first encounter with Ron's sister.
"And just how do you know my sister, EnLaur?" Ron demanded, aiming his wand straight at the Slytherin. He glared, daring the seventh year to answer.
"I don't mean any trouble, Weasley," Whitney replied innocently. "Didn't want to cause any disturbance-"
"I'll show you disturbance..." Ron growled, raising his wand higher. "Levi-"
"Expeliarmus!" Kurama shouted, sending his friend's wand skidding across the floor in the opposite direction.
"What the bloody hell was that for?" Ron exclaimed, frustrated. "I was about to nick the bloke's body stiff!"
"Weasley! See me after your classes are finished," Genkai interrupted sternly. "We will discuss your punishment then, so I would suggest that you not make any plans for tonight."
"Old hag," the Weasley murmered. When she turned back to grade some other Slytherin students, he turned to Kurama and shouted the same spell Whitney EnLaur had used on Yusuke Urameshi. Surprisingly, the spell erupted from the tips of his fingers -he had no wand- and it charged at the fox demon. Kurama casually slided away from the attack, but the light kept going past him, hitting Harry Potter instead.
The spell had a similar effect as to when it was performed on Yusuke. Harry's once black hair had now changed into a golden shade on orange.
"Who would've thought Potter'd go to this extreme to become a Weasley," Malfoy sneered. Crabbe and Goyle howled, Hermione gasped, and Whitney and EnLaur just stared.
"Harry... I... I didn't mean... I was just mad..." Ron sputtered, beginning to feel the guilt set in about what he'd just done. "I really didn't think it'd work, honest... I didn't even have my bloody wand in my hand..."
"Weasley, while I will mark that you are able to perform a wandless spell, I will have to add that to your previous offense," said Genkai crossly. "Potter, do you want to see Madam Profery in the Hospital Wing?"
"I'll manage, professor," Harry flushed with embarrassment. Nearly every Slytherin in the room, and a small hand full of Griffindors, were snickering at the new hair choice. "After all, it will be gone soon."
"Good," Genkai nodded. "I don't need another of mystudents in the Hospital Wing, anyhow."
"Oh Harry, it's not all that bad," Nicole Taylor claimed, defending Ron Weasley. "Ron said it was an accident, didn't you Ron?"
"Yeah," Ron glared. "It was supposed to hit Minamino."
"Why would you want to hurt Shuichi?" a girl squeeled. That began a chorus of rants and complaints such as, "What'd he ever do to you?" and "I thougth you were mates with Shuichi. Show how much I know!" and "If Shuichi shot a spell at you for saving someone, how would youfeel?"
"Just... shut... up!" Ron roared. "And Minamino... I don't care if I ever speak to you again!"
"Ron, this is hardly a reason to-" Kurama tried to reason.
"Look Ron," Harry interrupted, using a persuading tone of voice. "I don't fansy Slytherin either, you know that, but I've got to stand by Kurama on this. He just didn't want to see Whitney get jinxed, that's all."
"What about you, Harry?" Ron demanded. "You've been hanging out with your new mate ever since the day we met him on the train! Hermione, that goes for you too."
"So you've wanted to hex me for quite a long time then, is that what you're trying to tell me?" Kurama asked conversationally.
"Yeah, that's what I'm 'getting at'," Ron barked. "Bet none o' your mates in Japan have went and turned their backs on you, acting like they don't knowwho you are, or avoiding even talking to you. No! You've got yourself loads of mates who'll go to Azkabam for you if you'd ask 'em! Even have 'The Boy Who Lived' as you pal, now that's a kicker!"
"Who's 'The Boy Who Lived'?" the demon asked blankly. Harry had never told him about his "official-unofficial title".
"It's Harry, Kurama," Hermione whispered, looking straight into the Weasley boy's eyes. "Ron, I don't know who's the worse prat right now- you, or Malfoy."
"I know who's lamer," Draco murmered to Pansy, who giggled freely from the statement.
"I thought you were sorry about the spell you'd done," said Hermione crossly.
"I was... I am..." Ron stuttered a reply.
"But you wouldn't have been if it had hit you other friend?"
"Hermione, you don't understand-"
"No. No, I guess I don't," Hermione stated. "I haven't been able to understand your moods or actions ever since the Halloween Dance. It's light your some sort of lightbulb- you keep turning on and off, and it's getting to be off a lot more often. I used to think you were better than this, but now I'm not so sure."
"Class dismissed!" Genkai interrupted. "Everyone, go to your next class before you're late; I don't want you next teacher complaining about your tardiness to me. And Weasley, you will remain here." Hermione glared at the Weasley, then motioned Harry and Kurama to follow her.
"Minamino, I'd like to speak with you as well," Genkai added. Kurama nodded, and Harry and Hermione left for their next class without him.
"Kurama, I think this young man deserves an explanation," Genkai started.
"It's alright, professor," said the kitsune. "Ron has every right to be upset with me right now-"
"I don't mean that he should apologize, I mean that you need to tell the boy why you were transferred here in the first place," Genkai corrected.
"Genkai, I don't think-"
"It's for the best, Kurama. Believe me," Genkai put in seriously. "It woud not be the wisest choice to make by leaving him in denial, hating you for stupid reasons..."
"They're not stupid!" Ron exclaimed.
"Where you're my age, you'll agree with me- you're acting like a childish imbisil. Now let Kurama tell you what's going on, or else I will strap you to a chair and be forced to stuff the truth down your throat."
By the look on Ron's face, you could tell he believed that she would do just that. "So, what then?" he asked dully. "Is Kurama a fifty year-old Auror in disguise or what?"
"A few hundred years older, actually," Kurama replied. "Can't tell you that I'm a human, nor a wizard- I'm a fox demon, or transformer, if you will."
AN: Oh my gosh, I feel so bad! I missed the date to write up this chapter by a long shot this time, didn't I? I've got a good reason though! I have like four tests to study for this week, I've had too much extra curricular activites, sleepovers, and my computer broke down when I actually did have time to type! I hope you forgive me!
Makurayami Ookami, anorethunbound, Time and Fate, Avari Shadowborn, and SakuraKino reviewed on my last chapter though, so I'm glad to announce that much! SakuraKino's even got part of my pen name in it- Kino!
After the next chapter I'll add, I... kind of lost the notebook I'm writing this in. I'll try to find it ASAP though!
Hope this chapter was good! Bye!
