When the group settled down in a cabin, Kurama asked, "How long does the train ride usually last?"

Hermione answered promptly, like normal, "About seven to eight hours give or take. I hope you brought something to pass the time with."

Yusuke groaned and said, "We did, Grandma made us swear on our magics that if we didn't have AT LEAST half of our potions book memorized for this year, she'd make us doing three thousand push-ups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, and one hundred miles of swimming in the school's lake WITH the squid trying to grab us along the way."

Harry, Ron, Ginny, and even Hermione, who loved to learn, winced at that. The worst part was, they knew Genkai would follow through with her threat.

Ron gulped, looked at his own trunk above his head, and asked, "Should we get a head start on DADA then? I mean, she's started us early…maybe she's expecting something from us now?"

Kurama nodded and said, "That might be a good idea. Or all four of your could practice standing on your finger for the entire time?"

All four paled, shook their heads, and said loudly and jittery, "STUDY!"

Kurama and Yusuke shared a laugh at their young friends and started to read their Potions book.

The trip was relatively silent as the two detectives read through their books. On the other side, the four Hogwarts veterans were scrambling about trying to remember every little thing about every spell they have read.

Yusuke glanced at the four over his book, glanced to Kurama, and though to him, 'Grandma's sure frighten them into studying! Maybe we should calm them down and let them rest for now? I know I could use a break from this book.'

Kurama met his eyes and nodded. The two closed their book s and cleared their throats.

The four looked up a bit disheveled and silently asked WHAT?

"It is almost lunch time and we could all use a break. Genkai-sama isn't as bad as you think. You'll do fine. I think it's those Slytherin students that you've told us about that have to worry." Said Kurama smoothly and full of humor.

Ron, Harry, Ginny, and even Hermione's lips twitched as they imagined the Slytherins, especially Malfoy and Parkinson and Goyle and Crabbe, going up against her and what she'd do to them. They ended up bursting into laughter as the door opened and the trolley lady appeared.

"Anything off the trolley, dears?" she asked sweetly as everyone bought a bit of everything for everyone.

When they were alone, Ron asked, "So, now that Master Genkai isn't here, is she really a Demon Slayer? I mean, demons aren't really real-right?"

The two shared a glance and Yusuke replied easily, "She sure is! She's also a famous Physic who can blast people and things around our old school like we were paper and she one of those high-maintenance jumbo fans."

Harry and Hermione's eyes popped wide open and Ginny and Ron's faces just looked confused.

Kurama sighed and tried again, "She could push us around like pieces of parchment against Dumbledore using a wind spell at full power."

Both Weasley's felt their eyes pop open at that. Unfortunately, it was at that precise moment that their door opened once again to reveal the face of one Draco Malfoy.

As he opened his mouth to bad-mouth at them, Ron said loudly, "Oh look! There is the whiner now! I can't wait to see how Master Genkai deals with him. I bet it'll be hilarious to watch him run hundreds of laps around the Quidditch Pitch!"

The Golden Trio, Ginny, Yusuke, and even Kurama burst out laughing. Malfoy's face was contorted in a visage of confusion causing them to burst into even more laughter.

Harry got most of his laughter under control and asked haltingly, "Why Malfoy? Did you not know? We have a new DADA teacher and she's a truly Don't-Mess-With-Me lady! Oh, you didn't know! Too bad, I thought your dad told you all the Hogwarts news before hand since he's on the School Board? Oh right, ever since his arrest at the Ministry when he was spotted wearing the D. E. paraphernalia all his assets, money, and titles have been frozen until farther notice…sorry!"

Draco growled and said sharply, "You'll get yours Potter! Just wait and see! The Dark Lord knows everything there is to know about the Three Worlds! I'll like watching you die by a demon's hand."

Harry blinked and Kurama cut in smoothly, "Ah, you see, that's just the thing. Professor Dumbledore already knows about those demons and in turn has hired our Sensei, Genkai-sama. She's a very famous Youkai exterminator in the orient. I do not think that a demon will oust Harry, as you've so charmingly prophesied."

Draco blinked and asked angrily, "And who the hll are you?"

Kurama raised and eyebrow and said easily, "I am Suuichi Minamino and this is me friend, Yusuke Urameshi. We are both student's of Master Genkai's, who is this years DADA teacher."

"Sue-I-Chee who? You-Sue-Key…bah! You're foreigners! What are you doing here in England? Shouldn't you be back in your quaint little Temple learning how to commune with nature and all that crp?"

Yusuke stood up and said calmly but his voice was laced with venom, "It's Sue-ee-Chi and Yous-Kay, Malfoy. You'd do well to learn our names along with Grandma's, Genkai. And, we're here because Professor Dumbledore asked Genkai to come here and teach. She agreed only if Dumbledore allowed us admittance into Hogwarts. She agreed. And no, we do not only, as you so charmingly call it, commune with nature. We also exercise our bodies so that they are in peak condition, so in turn, our magics are stronger and well disciplined. Now, will you kindly get your pale, skinny arse out of OUR cabin? Thank-you!"

Yusuke none to gently pushed the three Slytherins out of the cabin, and slammed the door. He pulled out his wand and muttered a few words under his breath. The Gryffindor's watched in awe as a golden light swarmed over the door and made a cage-like dome over it before it merged with the door. In a short burst of light, the cage was gone and in its place were two golden locks and a golden stream of energy where the door met the cabin's wall.

"What spell was that!" demanded Hermione with bright eyes filled with excitement and anticipation. The four Gryffindor's had learned while in the two young men's presence, that while Genkai was a demanding teacher, they, themselves, were equally demanding with their own studies and disciplines. While they complained a lot about studying and all the exercise, they truly enjoyed doing both.

Yusuke turned to her and grinned.

"Actually, it's not so much of a spell than a will." Answered the black-hared teen as he placed his hands behind his head and leaned back down into the chair.

All four heads tilted in confusion.

Kurama chuckled softly as Yusuke explained, "It's not the type of spell that needs specific wand movements or pronunciations. Actually, all you need is a strong will and the ability to do some wandless magic to make it work. All I did was will some type of lock that would block out all those who would wish to bother us that had evil intent. So say that, that Neville guy shows up, the lock won't hurt him. But if Malfoy returns, he'll find himself on his backside farther down the train and in some pain."

Hermione jumped to her feet, landed on her knees before him, and asked pleadingly with her hands placed under her chin, "Will you teach me, please, please, please!"

Yusuke eyed her and said uncertainly, "I can try, but Genkai will come to this type of stuff by the middle of the year. You could just wait. I'm not a very good teacher."

"PLEASE!" she begged making her eyes bigger and wetter.

Yusuke winced at that face and asked, "Dmn! Has she been in contact with Botan or Yukina and I didn't know about it?"

Kurama shrugged and attempted to stop his chuckles. Yusuke heard it though and said in Japanese, "I bet you are finding this funny, aren't you Kura-chan?"

"You bet I am! Just watching the great Yusuke Urameshi being brought down by a girl is priceless!"

Yusuke rolled his eyes and was about to retort when Ron asked, "What were you talking about? All we could understand was your names."

Both blushed and Yusuke said, "Ah, he was laughing at me because my weakness is a girl's eyes when they do that big wet thing."

Ron and Harry rolled their eyes and said together, "Join the club! Those two have mastered that art form a long time ago!"

Ron added with a groan, "Especially Ginny! What with six older brothers you know!"

Ginny shrugged and said innocently, "How else was I to get my way?"

All the boys there rolled their eyes to the heavens and the girls giggled. Then they heard the conductors voice telling them they were fifteen minutes away from Hogwarts.

All of them jumped to their feet, pulled down their trunks, yanked out their uniforms, and the girls immediately left for the loos. The guys didn't even bother to lock the door. They just threw on their clothes and sat back down just as the girls stepped back inside in their uniforms too. They glanced at one another. The Gryffindors' in excitement-it was good to be home. The two detectives also glanced at one another, but it was with a hidden acceptance. It was time to go back to school-back to their years of HELL!

The last comment, refers back to the first two chapters with Yusuke and Kurama's references to their past experiences with school, authority, and girls.
