Kikyo and Faith packed their bags, the youngest looking at Kikyo.

"Speak your thoughts, my apprentice." Kikyo requests not looking at the girl, who shared quarters with her.

"Why do you not have to wear those hideous black uniforms? " Faith inquired as she put everything into her new trunk.

Kikyo smirked at the question. "I refused, I am not a witch, I was just born to them."

The two discussed the various aspects of both temple education and Hogwarts education would entail and how Faith would continue her priestess training.

The two of them went and met the limo driver of the Demonic realm. Harry was waiting for them outside of the platform with his sister.

Kikyo and Faith walked up to them, when they arrived at the station. Faith stared at the border between platforms. "Sister, I fear something is amiss. I don't sense anything otherworldly about this pillar."

Kikyo looked at the platform entrance and pressed her hand against the pillar and expected it to go through when it didn't, she knew that the entrance had been tampered.

"It appears someone doesn't want us to attend Hogwarts, this year." Kikyo remarks

"How are we supposed to get to school now?" Harry questions

Alison sighed as she motioned to the exit. "Come on, I'm going to need to transform."

They left the station and went behind it, Alison looked around at her charges. Even Ron was stuck with her group. As his parents went to see Ginny on the train.

Kikyo summoned her soul collectors and instructed them to lift them onto Alison's huge back once she was airborne.

Harry looked at Kikyo.

"My collectors will take me." Kikyo explained as Harry was the last to be lifted up.

Kikyo thought if this was a different situation, Ron and Harry would have stolen the car.


A few days earlier in the Demonic Realm.

Maria growled at the melancholy that Yasha had fallen into once Hermione was sent home. Soten sat across from her Ladyship in front of them was the Heir's school records.

"As you can plainly see, Master Yasha has enough credits to earn a shall we call it a self-study program. He is always in the school library with his nose in books. I can't think of anything left to teach him that he doesn't already know." Soten explained "knowledge wise he far surpasses my other students."

Maria nods "I will agree to this and it does solve another problem."

"What other problem is that, if you don't mind me asking?" Soten inquired

"Shippo requested a substitute for his class at Hogwarts. He seems to have a problem within his House." Maria answers leaning on her desk. She grinned at the Headmistress of DPA.

Soten's eyes widened as she caught the meaning of Maria's words. "He couldn't resist temptation for his little vixen?"

Maria shook her head. "Sakura is just as much to blame as her intended. I will have the school board of governors knocking down the gates once that knowledge comes into the sunshine. Sakura is older than she appears as with all half demons."

Soten shook her head. "Wizards don't really think about how half-demons age." With that Maria dismissed Soten and summoned Yasha to her study.

"You want me to fill in as Shippo's substitute?" Yasha questions like he thought his mother had lost her sanity. "I'm barely older than most of those students, they wouldn't listen to me."

"You aren't just going to be teaching, you will still have your own courses but in a self-study program." Maria responds "you know how to get those younglings to understand."

Yasha agrees just because he finally realizes that his mother was sending him to Hermione because he was a wreck without seeing her. "I'll pack my stuff. Just off the record, why is Shippo taking off?"

"He's having a legitimate kit" Maria responds

Yasha chuckles "I don't want to be you when the wizards find out."
