RoaringWind: Arigato for your review.
ThrainTalonwater: Don't worry. Harry is really old. But, he doesn't show it, because he looked young when the whoel immortality thing started. So, he looked young, but inside he was old. Ok?
A/N: Btw, in this chapter, and the chapters to come, will contain Ron bashing. If you are a Ron lover DON'T FLAME ME!
Chapter 6: Hogwarts Express.
August the 31st found Harry walking into the Leaky Couldren, his things shrunk and in his pocket. He walked over to the counter.
"Could I have a room please?" Harry asked the bartender politely. The man turned to him, and smiled a crooked smile. He turned around and grabbed a key from behind him.
"How long are you stayin?" The man asked.
"Just tonight." Harry replyed serenely. The man nodded.
"That'll be 5 Sickles." Harry got them out, and paid him. He was shown the way to his room. Harry sighed in a relieved way, and plopped on the bed, forgetting for the moment that he was once a feared killer, and acting like a normal teenager.
Harry awoke the next mourning feeling ready to go to Hogwarts. Although he was older than everyone else, he didn't know much about magic. Sure he'd read all the books he got, and memerised them. But, it didn't help the fact he'd had no chance to test out the different spells, to see how potent they are (A/N: The more powerful the person is, the more powerful the spell. Well, Harry is very powerful, no doubt about that).
He had about 3 hours to get to Kings Cross Station. He decided to do some reading, and training. His senses told him that he needed to touch up on his skills. It must be something serious then. His skills were the best there was. During his travels, people thought that he was a vampire, since he could hear, see, and even smell things far away.
So, to have him train them even more, this thing had to be either serious or dangerous. Probably both. He trained for 2 hours, then showered. He came out of the shower room about 10 minutes later, feeling refreshed and happy. He decided to pack up everything, and left, not before giving the key back. He 'flagged down' a taxi and got in, and told the driver to take him to Kings Cross Station.
Kagome awoke around the same time as Harry had finished training. She had been staying with a distant relative, who was also a witch. She packed away all the things she had gotten at Diagon Ally into a trunk that she had been given. She also added a few other things into the trunk, like some manga, candy, and some of her old school books. She closed her trunk, and exited the room. It was on the top floor, like at her home back in Japan. She walked down the stairs and saw her aunt at the table, eating.
"Ohayo Auntie Hannah." Kagome greeted her aunt.
"Ohayo." She muttered back. Kagome smiled.
"I'm going to have to go to.. Kings Cross Station.. in a few minutes." Kagome said, after checking the name another time. Hannah nodded, and got up.
"Well, let's leave." Kagome blinked, and went upstairs to get her trunk, Hannah coming up to help her. They dragged the trunk down, and into the car. They got in, and drove off.
Harry stood afar from the barrier that led to Platform 9 and three quarters, his baggage next to him. He knew it was a barrier, as he could 'see' through it. Grabbing his luggage, he walked over, and walked through calmly without hesitation. He was met with a large group of people on the other side, waiting to get on the train. Harry smiled faintly. He brought his luggage over to the train, and got on, finding a compartment near the end of the train. He sat down and closed his eyes, silently revising his thoughts.
Kagome stood with Hannah Gan, staring uncertainly at the supposed bairrer to Platform 9 3/4.
"Are you certain this is it?" She asked. Hannah blinked.
"Yes, I'm sure. All you have to do, is walk through." She explained. Kagome looked uncertainly at the wall. She didn't trust magical portals. But, she HAD to get through that portal.
"Are you sure it's to the platform." she asked. Hannah nodded.
"Yes it is." She said impatiently. Kagome sighed, grabbed her luggage, that was next to her, and walked through. She appeared, to her great joy, at Platform 9 3/4. She walked onto the train, and looked for a compartment. She found one, and walked in, only to find it being occupied by a familiar young man who looked like he was sleeping.
Ron Weasley was known, to the teachers (except Snape), as the kind of person who would not even think to attack anyone, and would no harm. To the others, he was a bastard who attacked anyone who opposed him or got in his way. He seemed to have the teachers under his thumb, as they always seemed to not realise, or care, when he picked fights with the other students for fun. All the students hated him with a passion. He had many 'friends', who he threatened them to act nice to him, though they cursed him in their mind. The threat he used, was he would curse them if they didn't agree, as well as tell the professors lies about things they didn't do.
He was standing, looking very arrogant, at Platform 9 3/4. He looked around as though he was the greatest person in the world. He caught sight of Draco Malfoy. Ron glared at the blonde with contempt. He hated that bastard so much. Of cause, that hatred was on both sides. Malfoy hated him in the same way.
It was then, Ron noticed someone he didn't recognise, that wasn't a first year. It was a girl, and she was very preety. Ron decided that he wanted her. Of cause, what Ron Weasley wanted, he got, and he would have that girl.
Kagome stood hin the doorway of the compartment, staring at the young man that was in the compartment. She stepped inside. He seemed to know she was there, as he turned to her.
"Hello again. I never thought I'd see you coming to Hogwarts." He said with amusement. Kagome stared at him.
"I don't mean to sound rude, but who are you?" He chuckled.
"Harry Potter. Pleased to meet you." He said, extending his hand. Kagome stared at the hand, before reaching for it. Just as she was about to touch the hand, she was pulled back. At first, she thought it was Inuyasha, but he wouldn't do that. No, he'd kill Harry right there. Not knowing who it was, she elbowed the person, and heard someone cursing. She felt something against her head. Her eyes widened in fear.
Harry felt his anger burning in him when he saw a male red-head attacking the young woman from behind. He was even more furious when he saw the red head pointing his wand at her head. He got up, and hit the red head on the head, causing him to be knocked on the floor.
"Didn't your mother ever teach you not to attack from behind?" Harry said coldly. The male got up, and glared daggers at Harry.
"Who the hell are you?" He spat. Harry smirked.
"Harry Potter, at your service." With that, he gave a mock bow. The red head stared gapping at him. Harry, of cause, knew that he was famous in the wizarding world. The other male recovered quickly.
"Ron Weasley." With that, he extended his hand toward Harry. Harry stared emotionlessly at the hand. He knocked the hand away from him.
"I don't think so. I refuse to speak with idiots that attack people from behind." Harry said with a sneer. Weasley gave him a shocked look, then sneered at him.
"Fine then. But, you're going to regret this. Mark my words." With that, Weasley turned around, and stormed out. Harry sneered in the direction and turned to the female.
"Are you OK?" He asked. She looked up at him, and smiled.
"I'm fine." Harry smiled back.
"What's your name." Harry asked.
"Kagome Higurashi." She replyed. Harry smiled.
"Let me guess, Japanese?" He asked. Kagome nodded.
"How did you know?" She asked.
"I grew up in Japan. I know what names are Japanese, and I know your name is Japanese." Harry said, being very honest. It was true he grew up in Japan. Kagome blinked.
"Anyway, thanks for saving me from that guy. No telling what he'd do if you hadn't stopped him." She said, shivvering slighty as the thought of what the Weasley could have done.
"At least he didn't get that far." Harry said with relief in voice. Kagome nodded. They then sat down and began talking throughout the trip, feeling content with talking. Harry felt as though his heart was beginning to soften, like when Susana was alive.
A/N: Wow, that was the longest chapter so far. I feel so proud of myself Just a note, PLEASE REVIEW. Even if you just wanna say good job, REVIEW! Also, tell me what house you want them to be in. I'm leaning toward either Ravenclaw or Slytherin. Not Griffendore or Hufflepuff, because I really don't see Harry and Kagome being in Hufflepuff, and I've read too many fics where Harry and Kagome has been sorted into Griffendore, I wanna try something different.
