Not as many reviews as last time, but still a fair few. Thank you for those who reviewed! Or read the last chapter.

This is from the last chapter, because I completely forgot about it.

(-1-): I have never seen the anime, so don't know if this is right or not. I have heard it described to be this color, so I'm going off of that.

Pairings will come into play later on in the story. There is no point listing them right now, seeing as they aren't set in stone, and can change. But as the pairings start to show, they will be pointed out. So look for them.

Don't complain, this is how Lia had it set up, and I'm not changing it.

Oh, and if this isn't exactly like the book or the show, there's probably a reason. It's called Fanfiction for a reason.

Now, Standard Disclaimer Applies (SDA). I don't feel like writing it, I already made my point before.

Chapter 3

Kurama blinked a few times before clearing his throat.

"May I help you Headmaster?"

"I have some things I think we should discuss, before the school year starts." Dumbledore stated, and Kurama stood aside, letting the aged man enter the room. Dumbledore conjured up a chair, and sat down, while Kurama returned to the bed, sitting cross-legged on it.

"What did you wish to discuss?"

Yusuke and Kuwabara headed towards a shop that looked remotely interesting, as it was surrounded by kids. They couldn't understand a word being said, since they always skipped out on their English classes in school, but they did realize they were talking about a sport, after looking at the stuff in the shop. Brooms, funny looking robes – as that was what the dress-like things were that the wizards wore – in different colors, gloves, balls, and bats. There were also posters, with moving people in them. It had startled the two, at first, but they had seen creepier things so they got over it quickly (though Kuwabara took a few hits to the head to stop screaming bloody murder…). Yusuke and Kuwabara went inside, and started examining the stuff, trying to make sense of the funny English words.

"What the hell is a… Neem Bus?" Kuwabara asked, and was promptly elbowed in the gut by Yusuke.

"It's Nimbus, I think… And I have no clue what it is. I guess that is a Nimbus." Yusuke answered, avoiding a swing to the head easily while pointing at the broom.

"I knew that Urameshi! I want to know what Nimbus means!" Kuwabara whined, trying to block a kick to his left leg, but failed and toppled over, knocking a display case to the floor. The store manager wailed and ran over; hovering over the display frantically, talking so fast that even if the two Japanese boys knew English, they probably wouldn't have had a clue what was being said.

The man kept rambling, then picked up an old looking broom, and started to smack them, chasing the two delinquents out of the store.

"I came to talk about your monthly transformation. I don't think it wise to let him run about the school freely, as someone may see, and none of the staff know as to what you are." Dumbledore started, deciding that Kurama wasn't one for beating around the bush.

"I see, so what do you suggest? I can't control myself after I give up my body, but if you find something that is suitable for the Youko, he may be willing to strike a deal." Kurama stated, leaning back on his outstretched arms.

"What does Youko like?"

"Stealing, killing, and seducing. As I am guessing you don't want either of the last two, maybe you can make a deal for the first one, seeing as that is the closest to a deal you will get.

"Is there anything else that would please him?"

"Not much, though I have a suggestion."

"What is this suggestion?"

Kurama sat up straighter, and leaned forward slightly. "Let Youko break into Gringotts every full moon."

"What!"

"To see how far he can get. Place a suitable prize in the lowermost vault, and put your best defenses on it. Let's see Youko try to get it. He says he won't take anything else, and is willing to return what he has already taken." As Kurama said the last sentence, he sent a few vines down below his bed to his suitcase, opening it as the string-like vines that sewed the fake top on let loose, and the vines holding the items to the lid dropped off. The vines wrapped around the items and dragged them to the surface behind Kurama.

"What he's… He's already robbed Gringotts?"

"Only a vault, just wanted to see what was inside, and took these. Also a few stores are missing products, and a few potions out of curiosity." Kurama answered, pulling the items from behind him and pushing those forwards towards Dumbledore. The man sighed, and looked them over, before looking at Kurama.

"You only got here yesterday, I am guessing that was when you transformed?"

"I wasn't planning on the moon being full on my arrival, and lucky for them, Youko was only curious. Nothing major was stolen."

"I see… Is this everything?"

"Yes sir."

"Alright then, I will see about arranging the vault for you. What happens if you succeed in getting down to the vault and retrieving the item?"

"Then we start over again. Better defenses, new location. Youko doesn't like repetition. That's why he steals. It's different every time."

"From the way this is sounding, you should get a job in Bank Security."

"Is this all you wanted to talk about, sir?"

Yusuke and Kuwabara noticed another store with lots of children in front of it, and went to go 'investigate.' The store, which looked like a messed up toy store, had posters and items lined up in the window, and stepping inside, was full of noise. After looking around some more, they discovered that these were all pranks and jokes, with some games, and other stuff like that. They bought some things that looked like smoke bombs, and after paying for them (it took a bit, seeing as they couldn't read or speak English, but it worked out in the end), decided it was time to head back, since the language barrier was too much of a problem.

"I wanted to go over the rules with you, and I hope you pass on this information to your two friends. Now, the forest on the edge of the grounds if Forbidden. It's full of magical creatures, and dangerous plants. I don't mind if you three go in there for training, but do not get seen by other students. Now, the third floor corridor is off limits, to even you three. We hope that you can help keep people away from there, though they should do that on their own. You three need to attend every class, unless your boss calls you out of the castle."

"I see, is there anything else?"

"Yes, neither of you three are allowed to take Veritaserum, for you may lose your cover if you say anything. Also, it has a good chance of reverting you back to your… original form."

"Hmm. Is that all?"

"For now. Just tell the other two what I've told you. See you at school September first."

"Goodbye Headmaster."

Kurama passed on the information that Dumbledore had told him. At the same time, Yusuke and Kuwabara told him about the cool sport they discovered, but left out the part where they were chased out by a man swinging a broom.

"The posters indicate that they can fly!" Yusuke exclaimed, and Kurama nodded.

"I can't believe I'll be able to fly! This wizarding world is awesome!"

"Mhmm."

"And they wear these funky ass looking robes!"

"Mhmm."

"Are you listening to me?"

"Mhmm."

"Kurama, I'm gonna chop your hair off."

"Mhmm."

Yusuke sighed, and walked over, grabbed the book Kurama was holding, and slammed it shut. Kurama jerked backwards, snapping his head up to look at Yusuke.

"What the-"

"I was talking to you, and you were blowing me off!"

"Sorry Yusuke, but I am going to be a year ahead of you in school, I have to know what they know."

"Kurama, you probably already know it all! Hell, you probably know more then they know!"

"It never hurts to study."

"It hurts me."

"You know you have to attend each and every class, Yusuke."

"Yeah yeah, I know."

"Well, let's go to bed, I have to try and teach you English in less then a week…"

"Sorry man."

The three sat at a table at the ice cream shop, Kurama trying to teach the two boys English.

Kurama, finishing off his ice cream, sighed.

"You two are impossible. Couldn't you have paid attention to this in school?"

"Nope, had better things to do then."

"Yeah, same as Urameshi, had better things to do."

"Come up with your own excuse, idiot."

"I'm not an idiot!"

Kurama rested his head in his arms, ignoring the two arguing boys not looking ready to get into a fist fight. A tap on his shoulder brought him back to the world, and turning around, he saw an extremely large man. Long scraggly hair that mixed in with his beard, and beetle-like eyes, with a large brown coat and boots the only apparel you could see.

"Are yeh Kurama, Yoo-soo-ke, and Koowa-bara?"

"It depends on who you are, sir."

"Name's Rubeus Hagrid, Dumbledore sent me to give yeh tickets to Hogwarts."

"What he say?" Yusuke asked, and Kurama answered.

"Maybe if you knew English…"

"That's not funny Kurama."

"I wasn't trying to be."

"Yer friends don't speak English?"

"No, and they're impossible to teach."

"Well, I can help yeh there! There's a translating charm that comes in useful, Dumbledore gave me permission to use it just in case."

Grabbing his large umbrella, he tapped the boys on the head, startling them, and muttered something that they couldn't understand (-1-). When he puth is umbrella away, Yusuke asked Kurama, "What he do?"

"Made it so you can speak English. Saves me the trouble."

"I didn't have lots of time ter learn it, so some words may not translate correctly, but hopefully it works well enough. Maybe one of the professors up at the castle maybe able to help yeh."

"Thanks man," Kuwabara said gratefully, finally being able to understand the people around him.

"Yes, thank you."

"Ya, thanks."

Hagrid pulled out an envelope, and handed it to Yusuke, before taking off. "That there's the tickets, train leaves at 11 o'clock sharp, so be on time!

They looked at the envelope, then back at the man to see he was gone.

TBC…

(-1-): I didn't feel like making up a spell, so they didn't hear what it was, and neither did you.
