Kikyo was standing in the gardens of the Taisho Estate. "There is something missing, I feel like I'm supposed to be with someone."
Just then she saw a vision of both herself and Inuyasha but he looked wrong she thought it looked like Adrian looking at her like a treasure. Kikyo shook her head.
"Hey Kikyo, what's up why you're out by yourself." She hears a familiar voice call out.
"True my lovely priestess but you shouldn't be here by yourself. " Adrian said as he walked up to her.
"You shouldn't believe me defenseless." Kikyo replied
"Oh I never thought that Kikyo it just well I was hoping to walk with you a while."
Kikyo looked over at Adrian. "I still say you look like him."
"But I'm not him I'm my own person I'm related to him yes but I'm not him." He walked over to her and smiled "Well except in our taste in the woman we fall for."
"Do not say that." Kikyo replies, as she looked up and seen her soul collectors flying towards her, "Now if you excuse me, I am being summoned back to the Temple." she closed her eyes as the collectors swirled around her and disappeared.
Adrain stood there watching as she left "Kykio I really do hope you give love a chance." He turned and heads back.
"And I hope you know she's only eleven." Maria states with her arms crossed. "A call would be excepted if we're having a family reunion, my nephew."
"I'm sorry lady Maria this was really just spur of the moment."
"Spur of the moment, would mean your parents went on a second or is a twenty-second honeymoon?This isn't the first time, you just dropped by unannounced." Maria replies
He smiled sheepishly "I think its the twenty-thrid honeymoon."
"Well, then you might as well get your bags, because I believe you're staying here until school starts again." Maria replies, as she turned around and left.
"Yes ma'am right away." As he darts off to gather his things.
That night at Dinner, Sesshomaru's fingers were digging into his chair at the guest that night, his brother's legacy. He may have come to terms somewhat with his brother but that didn't excuse his offshoot relatives to use his home as a dumping ground for their children.
The school age wizards were talking about different things about the school and the next Quidditch match once school starts again. Keiko hung around Harry hopimg to be included in their talk.
Topaz didn't really speak, just made comments now and again, she was missing her pack, her brothers and sisters. The Dog Clan was great, but they didn't know anything about wolves. She looked up as she caught the scent of something that was wolf-scent.
With a rush of wind and leaves a tornado blows into the room. Koga stands at the entrance to the room and waits to enters, he looks over to the head of the demon world "Lord Sesshomaru, Lady Maria may I speak to my daughter please."
"Ever thought of ringing the doorbell? And waiting to be allowed in, this isn't your cave in the mountains." Sesshomaru states, "and that isn't really up to us, now is it?"
Koga just smirks at Sesshomaru then turns to his daughter "Topaz may I speak with you privately please?" He looked almost humble.
"Mother's kicked you out of the bed until you apologize for being a crude selfish idiot?" Topaz questions, as she stood up, with a gentle hand on Allison's side, she wasn't about to let her father stir things up. "And you seemed to forget that wolves chose life-partners, and I already chosen mine. So get over that."
He sighs "Yes and yes and you're right Topaz I was foolish and selfish idiot of a man."
"I'm grown, and you have other daughters to wed to who knows who, so leave me and my choices alone. Just cause you don't like Sesshomaru, I have to suffer." Topaz replies. "You didn't like me being in a band let alone, not its lead singer."
He sighs again and looks around the room. "Topaz, i admit i was but you're my daughter , and i do want the best for you I was just to stubborn to see I was making you unhappy okay. "
"Fine." Topaz replies, "So can I return home, or should I request a change of address for my clothing?"
"No that won't be necessary you can come home when ever you wish Topaz." With that he turns to Sesshomaru and Maria and with a bow to them he turns and walks out.
Topaz looked toward her life-partner, and waved before sprinting off.
"Well I'm glad that is fixed." Harry said without thinking to ron.
"It would be fixed, Topaz has been speaking to Ayame on a daily basis." Allison answers
Harry eeped "Well true but it shouldn't have took that long."
"Koga is very stubborn, it took three years for him to realize Kagome wasn't returning to the feudal Era. Before he relented and wedded Ayame." Maria replies
"If you say so momma." Then Harry changes the subject "So momma what are we going to do tomorrow?"
"I don't know." Maria replies, "Except that I have to attend a council session."
Harry frown just as a messenger entered and handed an envelope over to Maria and quickly left the room. Harry thought 'it might be a good thing, momma's is getting that summer home.
Yasha excused himself and went after his mother, if she needed help, he would be her right hand.
Maria read the letter and went to meet Totosai at the gates to her manor.
The older then dirt sword smith only took on new projects every few decades, and he made this dagger with care, because he owed to Maria.
"Here you are Lady Maria just as you asked even if for thd life of me i don't see why you want a dagger for the boy."
"The demonic blood in him is stronger then I thought it would be..." Maria answers
"No that i can understand it the fact you didn't want a proper sword for the boy." He chuckled in a feeble way.
"Dagger, he can use and is easy hidden on his person, a sword he can't." Maria replies as she handed over money to the old demon.
"Very well my lady then I'll leave you then. "He turns and walks away.
The few days were uneventful, Allison sat in her room, with her guitar in hand and her composition book open as she plucked the strings and added the notes down.
She heard a knock on her door. "Ali, can i come in please."
"Its open." Allison states, as she put the pen in her mouth.
Harry walks in looking a bit depressed. "Ali can I talk to you if your not to busy of course."
"I'm not that busy, just working on a new set piece for a gig." Alison replies as she put her guitar to the side. "So what's on your mind, little brother?"
He took a deep breathe and began slowly at first hoping his sister might find a way," well sis it like this..." and explain everything he told Yasha but also added his new thoughts on Dumbledore and how he was able to learn everything. "And well thats the situation I know Kikyo could do it but then she might die and well i care to much about her to let her do that."
"Kikyo won't die at eleven years old, now her eighteenth year that might be tricky, and honestly, I wouldn't trust anyone who brings a powerful object into a school for magical education." Allison answers
"I know Ali its just why in the first place and why is it I found it with everyone help of course."
"Because someone wants you to find it." Allison answers
Alison notices her brothers eyes flicker red for a second "Again i ask why there has to be a reason right sis." He asked as he began to pace her room.
"Can't you think of someone, who would want a powerful item that would bring someone back from the brink of death other then Tenseiga." Allison replies
"Well yeah duh, Voldemort for one he's the first person on that short list and we guessed that already. What i want to know is there a way to stop this whole mess before someone really gets hurt. So Ali, what do I do?" Harry asked as he sits on her bed.
Allison pressed her lips, as her eyes glittered dangerously. "Do not go off on your own, if you think something is amiss go to a professor, preferably Shippo, who had the resources to contact us."
"Ali yoi know me better than that i alway find uncle Shippo."
"Yeah and I know you would try to hot dog it and get yourself banged up and I don't want to endure a summer with a raging Mother." Allison replies, "Other then that, just try to stay out of trouble. However, you have no choice, since Mother is going to show up at your school to see how Shippo is doing."
Harry smiles."Momma's coming to school ." Harry yips "But what about kei kei is she coming as well?"
"Most likely an early education program, she's almost that the age to start interacting with other demonic pups." Allison replies
Harry frown he wanted his sister to come. "Well can't have everything right." He smiles and hugs Allison " Thanks Ali this was a big help and sorry about taking your time like this." He kisses her cheek and hops off her bed.
"Its no problem, that's what I'm here for, to help you. Besides its not Keiko's going to need my sisterly advice right away." Allison replies, as she picked up her guitar, detuned the strings and placed it back in its case.
Harry heads off to find Ron and go see how his 'cousin' Dudley was doing with his new reform.
They find him him polishing the guards armor with a sour look on his face but not quite the one he had when Harry met him.
"You seem to remind me of someone." Harry states as he looked at Dudley.
"Oh Harry and umm sorry i didn't get your name." He said in a civil way.
"Ron Weasley."
Harry nods
"Well yes its my punishment work for mouthing off at Sara this morning during my workout." He explains.
"Never mess with a demon slayer." Harry replies
"Yes I'm learning that now but at least its not as bad as she that other one wanted."
Noriko came around the corner, and laughed. "So I'm bad, huh? Well just as much as i'm not going to be here until summer."
"Noriko your not bad its just having me do laps with 50 kgs. Of dead weight is a bit extreme."
"I can do that in my sleep." Noriko replies, "You two better get back inside and finish repacking. I'm going to go raid Sara's forge." she turned and left.
"Yes, ma'am, right away. " the two wizards run off to repack their things and make sure there ready. Later that day Maria calls Harry into her office.
