Update-This is the revised version of this chapter. Read and Review :D

Chapter 8

Albus looked at the two figures on the bed, then back to the head nurse. He raised an eyebrow in slight amusement. "Madam, these two..." He trailed off, leaving it for the nurse to explain. His arms crossed while he stood beside the currently occupied bed.

Madam Pomfrey figured out her cue. She looked at the two on the hospital bed. "I'm pretty sure these two had fallen from some high place, I'm guess from the old Wivern tree by the Quidditch field." She looked over at the blond one. "Mr. Malfoy, as far as I could see has only a sprained shoulder and a few nicks and scratches." She looked at the other one. "As for the other, I'm not so sure who he is. As far as I could see, he had a broken arm, his right arm I'm guessing as well as a sprained foot, his right."

She couldn't figure out what else was wrong with him. She couldn't, she just couldn't. Why?

"And Madam, if I might ask, why are these two gentlemen sharing the same bed?" That's why.

Pomfrey's eye twitch. "Well Albus, when I found these two and brought them back..." She paused. "Well, I couldn't release the Mr. Malfoy's grip on the boy." She kept scanning the two boys in the bed. Why? No, really, why?

The two looked at the pair. Two boys, one slightly taller than another, one gripping onto the larger one with much force, the other wrapping his arms around the smaller boy as if to protect him from something. The Asian, the one with long hair, he had wrapped his arm around the other boy, also known as Draco Malfoy. His face drew blank. Draco gripped the taller boy's arm, as if he was the only thing he could cling onto in a black hole.

The morning sun rays passed through the windows glass, shining, no glittering the two boys. It looked so innocent and peaceful. The sun lightly kissed both of the boy's face, giving them a perfect light.

Neither Albus nor Madam Pomfrey came near them. They unconsciously knew not too.

Albus chuckled. "Oh dear." He muttered to himself. He eyed the two boys. "Heh."

Madam Pomfrey gave him a questioning look. "What is it?" She raised an eyebrow, just as he had. "Tell me Professor, who is this boy?" She looked at the long haired boy. He looked so peaceful, and charming. "Why I don't remember ever seeing him before."

Albus laughed. It was short, but jolly like. His glaze ran over the grip the long haired boy had over Draco. "That, Pomfrey, that is Mr. Yuu Kanda." The woman nodded as if to say go on. "He's our new Defense Against Dark Arts professor."

"Mr. Yuu Kanda..." She repeated as if to take a mental note. She nodded her head. "Professo-" She looked up so fast one could have heard something click in her neck. Her eyes were wide with surprise. "What?" She looked at him with disbelief. "What did you say Albus? I think I have misheard it."

"No, no Pomfrey." He shook his head with a small smile. He looked down at the beautiful young teacher, something inside him clicked, like a fatherly instinct. Something made him feel proud, something made him feel like when he was young again. "You heard right. Mr. Kanda, or shall I say Professor, is the new Defense Against Dark Arts teacher."

The Madam almost doubled. "Wha-What?" She looked at the boy, the taller one, the one holding Draco Malfoy dearly. "But, but he barely looks like he's fifteen, seventeen at most!" She put a hand up to rub her temples. "Oh dear." She looked a little woozy. She was a little over the old side, she wasn't taking surprises like this easily.

"Are you alright?" Albus asked the over reactor lady. Was that even a word? To add a little humor, Albus went on. "Do you feel unwell Madam Pomfrey? Do we need to take you to the hospital wing?"

The nurse glared at him. She would have stuck her tongue out if only she was thirty years younger.

Harry and Ron quickly hurried to the hospital wing. Harry blushed, his face facing down as to not meet anybody's eyes. His face burned with embarrassment. Hell, even his ears were red hot, though his long black hair, thanks to his 'best' friend Hermione Granger, you couldn't really tell.

As for Ron, well, he was of worst. He was often red, for a lot of reasons. Sometimes when he's mad, he turns red. Maybe when he's sick, he turns red as well. Sometimes, he just red for no reason. Today, he was as red as a hot chili. Unfortunately for him, the long red hair he's got on him was tied in a ponytail, one he couldn't take down.

Both boys mentally cursed Hermione. They made a pact to get back at her after they get fixed up.

"Bloody 'Mione!" Ron muttered under his breath. Harry followed his lead. Both now cursed the Granger genius.

"I swear, when I get a hold of her, I'm going to..." He muttered the rest under his breath. Harry sighed in relief that he didn't have to hear the rest of what Ron wanted to say. Ron could be a pretty good muggle horror author. He could make you picture the gory scene perfectly.

Fuck. Kanda sat down, arms crossed, legs in an Indian like cross. He looked different.

His hair was long, a lot longer than what it is usually. His eyes were bigger, his lashes much longer and most noticeable. His body shrunk down to a small child's. The chains that appeared every time he had this dream were there.

He licked his dry lips, his pink lips forming a frown.

"Oi, crazy bitch!" He called out to no one in particular. Around him, he could see, was only darkness as always. He gave it a few seconds. His right eye twitched as he received no answer. "I'm not going to walk around like a fucking idiot just to find you."

He heard a loud pop behind him. He 'Tch'd!' as slender arms wrap itself around him. His frown became a sneer. Two ears appeared on top of his head, a tail right behind him which swished back and forth furiously.

"Get off." He growled. The hands kept on.

"Now, now Princess." Her sicking, sweet, syrupy like voice trickled to his ear. The tiny witch blew into Kanda's ears. Her hot breath made Kanda shiver, and not the good kind of shiver.

He turned around and pushed her off, a disgusted sneer upon his face. He growled out in annoyance. "I said..." He paused for a moment, making sure to glare at the girl. "Get the fuck off."

He felt like throwing up, seeing the drag the young witch wore. It was what most would call the 'hooker' look. She looked older now, now that he finally got a good look at her. She looked around in her late teens. Her bouncy C-cup bust was hidden under a black shirt with clung tightly to her skin, ending just above her flat stomach. The low cut of the shirt made her breast almost popped out.

The mini skirt she wore rode up her long legs, in which one could see her thong if she bent down even a little. She wore high heels, the ones with pointy heels. It would make a deep cut if given to the right person. (Kanda wished he had those heels at the moment. He didn't have Mugen currently, poor him.) Multiply necklace, bracelets and many other girly accessories one would dare to wear. He just didn't like the look.

"Oh come on!" She pouted, pushing her bust out more oh so secretly, not that Kanda made any attempt to look above the neck. "I missed you! You haven't been around for a while." She walked towards the shrunken version of Kanda, her heels clicking against nothingness. She reached out to touch his cheeks, though he slapped her hand away. "Ow.."

"Go away." He spat out.

"I don't want to!" She replied.

He got up. He tried, it was hard to. His long hair, the many chains, everything weighed him down. He still got up. He walk away from her, slowly but surely. 'Stupid weak body!' He thought to himself, his ears, the cat ears, twitching.

"Wait!" She gasp. She didn't move any closer to him. It made Kanda slightly curious, though more grateful. He did not like being groped by a girl much younger than him. (From their first meeting, Kanda assumed she was still under ten. Even with her now, strangely older and curvier body, he still considered her a child. An annoying one at that.) "Hey! Please don't go that way!" She begged, though she didn't budged from her spot.

Kanda muttered curses under his breath.

"Kanda-sama!"

"What?" He finally turned around annoyed. The last he saw the girl frantically calling him back before he fell into water.

He fell into something. Be it a well or whatever, it was deep. He struggled to rise to the surface, though the chains attached to his arms and legs dragged him down. He had much difficulty keeping a hold of his breath as the water seemed to push against him. The pressure almost felt like it was crushing his body. He couldn't feel his left arm, he couldn't move it.

Kanda woke up with a gasp. He sat up, gasping for air. Beads of sweat rolled down his face, gulping in deep breath. "I-"

He looked around. He was...His trail of thoughts trailed off. Where was he? He pondered for only a moment. "What did I do...?" He tried to lift his arm. His right arm, it was free, but his left... He looked down. Now this is where Kanda gives us the 'What-the-fuck' look.

An awkward silence emerged followed by the annoyed slash disgusted look.

He quickly pried off the blond boy's fingers off of him. He then thought back at his 'nightmare' from just now. Why didn't that girl stick to him? (Not that he was complaining.) He wasn't dumb; he figured out that her appearing was some kind of puzzle. The questing was what would the puzzle reveal? Right now, he was nowhere near completing the puzzle; he was only with a few pieces. She called him hime (princess), the small body inside the dream, the crazy witch; what do they mean?

As he got lost in thought, his eyes traveled around the room. It was a pretty normal nurse's room. A few beds, medicine cabinet, etc. His eyes widen as he noticed the clock on the wall. He, he was late. Again... He stood up, the boy beside him still sleeping.

He hissed in pain as he sat his right foot down. "What the hell?" he muttered to himself. He look down and sneered as he saw his (right) foot wrapped in bandages. He lifted it and sat it down again, slower this time. Pain yet again. Fuck, he must have landed on it bad.

Great, he's late again, and now his foot is sprained. 'Note to self-never let Baka Trio know of this mission.' He grabbed his shoes which he noticed was by the bed. As he slipped it on, he noticed a letter which seemed to be address to him (as it said 'To Professor Kanda'.)

Shoes on, (jacket was still on as well), chastity checked, just kidding, he opened the letter. He shut his eyes for a moment as a blinding light shot out of the letter as he opened it. 'Must be another wizard thing.' he thought.

'Dear Professor Kanda,

As you are reading this, it's safe to presume that you have woken up? That all said, you may return to your resting quarters for today. Madam Pomfrey had given you some medicine to help it heal faster. It should be better by tomorrow. Don't worry about your classes, as you may know, I had Professor Snape teach the class in your place. If you need anything, I shall be in my office. The password is Snicker Doodle

Professor Dumbledore.'

He licked his dry lips as he folded the paper and stuffed it in his pockets. He pulled his jacket closer to him as he walked out of the room.

'Where was the main office again?' he thought to himself.

"Madam Pomfrey, excuse us." Harry called out as he tried his best to keep his head down. A little red head named Ron Weasley followed after them. They walked in, both heads hung.

Harry tried his best to avoid colliding to anybody on his way. He was grateful he didn't run into anybody, well, except a few first years who were still lost. If a Slytherin, god forbid, had ran into him, they, specifically a certain Malfoy, would have a field day.

The two best friends were so connected, they unconsciously did everything alike. As the walked in, both stepped in the room with their left foot, both held their books with their right arms, and both slowly, but surely, both looked up at the same time. As you could have guessed, both gasp at what they both saw.

"!"

Cliffy~

Cheers! I finally finished this. I got to admit, the beginning was a bit awkward. XD Anyway, I'll do my best to write the nest one soon, so I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Appreciate reviews, comments, etc.
