Harry awoke in Ron's room, with his ears twitching, he could hear metal on metal, he got up and raced to the window, and seen Noriko and Alison, going all out.

He put on his clothes for today and ran down the stairs, intent on stopping, his sister and his friend from all out killing each other.

Alison panted heavily, she switched her footing as she caught the blow aimed for her side, she spun out of the way and looked up, one canine tooth poking out of her mouth, her eyes flashing red.

"That's it, Fight through your anger, You mustn't let your inner self control you." Noriko states, as she noticed that Harry was about to rush into danger. "Hang on, your brother is here."

Alison's head whipped around and her eyes faded back to their warm golden hue. "Morning, Harry?" she sheathed her sword.

"What are you doing, are you trying to kill each other!?" Harry demanded

Alison let out a rumbling laugh. "No, of course not. Noriko is just teaching me to use my primal instincts not allow them to control me."

Harry blinked owlishly.

"Since I have nothing better to do here, I decided to fill in as Alison's Weapons-mistress. While we wait until the start of school. I already told Molly and Arthur." Noriko explains, she shrugged "I have been getting to know your sister as a living being instead of just a demon."

Alison nods, "We have some things in common. Like our swordsmanship prowls, and Nori is a fan of mine as well."

Noriko rolled her eyes. "Yeah, I like your music."

Harry looked between the two and shook his head.

Noriko looked at Alison. "We have been practicing for a few hours, I think we can stop for a while."


The days went by quickly, pretty soon school began again.

Everything was going fairly normal, Harry and Kikyo witnessed the sorting and Faith was placed in Gryffindor, which Kikyo let out a sigh of relief. As the sorting was over, the doors to the great hall opened and in walked a rather young demon.

Every student of Demonic blood gasped at the realization of who just walked in the room.

"Do I know how to make an entrance or what?" The demon states, walking up to the staff table. "I trust that you were informed by Lady Maria about Shippo's substitute?"

Dumbledore nods and gestures for the newcomer to introduce himself.

The demon turned and faced the students. "Greetings, I am Prince Yasha of the Demonic Realm, I shall be serving as your substitute professor until Shippo returns. After your dinner, will one half-demon student stay behind?"

After dinner, Harry volunteered to stay as the representative for the half-demons in Gryffindor. The Prefects took charge of the first years escorting them to their respective Houses.

Yasha looked at the group. "I had to stop by Shippo's estate to get information, the password for this year is Shikon Jewel. Would you be kind enough to inform your fellow classmates that need his office?"

They nodded and left, only Harry stayed behind.

"I'll walk with you to your house." Yasha states

The two left the hall.

"Mother sent me here for two reasons, one is completely sensible, I know our history, culture, and am able to see our world through a different view." Yasha explains

"And the other is?" Harry questions

"Hermione" Yasha responds "mother was about to kick me out of the palace if I didn't cheer up."

Harry nods "I'll see you in class." He went into his house.

Yasha turned and went to Shippo's quarters in the school.
