Son of the Dark: part 3
The BladeBreakers walked into the Leaky Cauldron to find it empty. Kai was shocked the last two times he'd been here it had been hard to walk without bumping into somebody but now it was empty. Only Tom the landlord, wizened and toothless, remained of the old crowd. He looked up hopefully as they entered. Kai slowly walked over to him with chibi toddling behind him, "can we have three rooms please" he said pulling out his wallet. Tom jumped up out of his seat quickly and ran to the rack with room keys on, Kai noticed that every key was still there, meaning that no one else had rented a room. Kai felt sorry for Tom, he was nice to Kai last year and now because of Voldmort he wasn't getting any business.
Once getting the keys from Tom, Kai walk back to the others "why did you only get three rooms?" max asked curiously, Kai shrugged and stated "because if I got us all our own rooms who would keep an eye on Daichi?" after hearing what Kai said Daichi was about to yell about how he didn't need anyone too keep an eye on him but stopped when he sew Kai give him a evil glare so Daichi just pouted instead.

After putting their things (and chibi)in their room showed them to the back door of the inn. Kai took out his wand and tapped on the brick wall. The other bladers wondered what was going on but all their mouths dropped open once the bricks started moving until it turned into an arch way. Kai walked through it and turned to his team "welcome to Diagon Alley" he said before gesturing for them to follow him as he started too walk down the street.
Diagon Alley had changed. the colourful, glittering window displays of spell books, potions ingredients and cauldrons were lost to view, hidden behind the large Ministry of Magic posters that had been pasted over them. Most of these sombre purple posters carried blown-up versions of the security advice on the Ministry pamphlets that had been sent out over the summer, but others bore moving black-and-white photographs of Death Eaters known to be on the loose. Bellatrix Lestrange was sneering from the front of the nearest apothecary. A few windows were boarded up, including those of Florean Fortescue's Ice-Cream Parlour. On the other hand, a number of shabby-looking stalls hand sprung up along the street. The nearest one, which had been erected outside Flourish and Blotts under a striped, stained awning, had a cardboard sign pinned to its front:
Amulets: Effective Against Werewolves, Dementors and Infri
A seedy-looking little wizard was rattling armfuls of silver symbols on chains at passers-by "one for your girlfriend sir?" he called to Tyson as they passed, leering at Kai. "Protect her pretty neck?". Tyson had to grabbed Kai by the arm to prevent him from killing the creepy little wizard.
It took a lot of work calming Kai who was yelling at the guy that just because he plaits his hair doesn't mean he's a girl down but once he was calmed down he started waking towards Madam Milkin's Robe shop. On the way Kai noticed that nobody was stopping to talk any more; shoppers stayed together in their own tightly knit groups, moving intently about their business. Nobody seemed to be shopping alone.
"Kai why are you getting a new robe?" Rei asks walking into the shop behind Kai who glared at Tyson "because I thought somebody knew how to use a washer" he stats with a venomous tone in his voice. Tyson put a hand behind his head and laughed nervously.

After Kai had brought all the things he needed for school they decided to look around for a bit I mean its not like Death Eaters are going to going to come kill them! Kai was the son of the dark lord for heavens sake. They all froze in shock when they sew that set against the dull, poster-muffled shop fronts around them, one shops windows hit the eye like a firework display. Casual passers-by were looking back over their shoulders at the windows, and a few rather stunned-looking people had actually come to a halt, transfixed. The windows were dazzlingly full of an assortments of goods that revolved, popped, flashed, bounced and shrieked. The shop was owned by the Weasley twins.
Rei and Kai led the way into the shop. It was packed with customers; it was so packed you couldn't get near the shelves. There were piles of boxes that went to the ceiling.
They split-up and went too look around the shop on their own: Tyson and Daichi went to look at the Nosebleed Nougats, Rei and Max went to the Skiving Snackboxes while Kai walked over to a small cage which he found out was full of round balls of fluff in shades of pink and purple, all rolling around the bottom of the cage, emitting high-pitched squeaks. Kai read the sign on the side of the cage "Pygmy Puffs?" he read-out-loud. Kai put a finger through the bars of the cage and watched the Pygmy Puffs crowd around it. Seeing this Kai couldn't help himself "Awww! Their so cute!" he squealed as he opened the cage and picked up a purple one. "their like miniature puffskeins" he said to himself as he walked over to the counted too buy it. It was just too cute not too buy!
--
Once Kai had brought the Pygmy Puff he went to show the others who were waiting out side. Max thought it was so cute he begged Kai too buy him one, it took Max's best puppy-eyes too get him too agree. Kai came walking out the shop and handed Max a pink, squeaking puff-ball "don't ever use that look on me again" he stats in a warning tone to his voice but Max didn't care he just placed the Pygmy Puff in his back pocket like Kai had done as it squeaked loudly.
--
The BladeBreakers were hurrying through Kings Cross Station on their way to the barrier between platform 9 and 10. It wasn't like they were going too be late of something, Kai just wanted to get there early so they didn't have to share a compartment. Kai didn't stop walking as they came to the barrier he just walked strait through it without even so much as a flinch. The other bladers ran through after much hesitation, its not like they've never done it before ,it's just that their not used to it.
Once they were through they see Kai walking through the crowds trying too get to where the scarlet Hogwarts Express stood belching steam over the hole crowd. The others hurry and run to catch up with Kai. Rei see's that Kai was having trouble carrying his trunk and two cages, one with Chibi in and the other had his purple Pygmy Puff 'Vince' in the other. His trunk was nearly dragging on the ground! Rei quickened his pace so he was walking next to Kai, Rei bent down slightly and pulled the trunk out of Kai's hand so he was carrying his trunk in one hand and Kai's in the other. Kai looks up at Rei in shock ,Rei just smiles down at him making Kai blush "t-thank you" he stutters as they get onto the train. After finding an empty compartment they hoisted their trunks into the luggage racks.
Kai seated himself down gracefully next to the window and pulled out a copy of 'Advanced Rune Translation' from his duffle-bag and started reading as Tyson chucked himself down on the seat/bench next to him. Max plonked down next to Tyson but not as hard while Rei and Daichi sat opposite too them. Rei crossed his legs on the seat and started meditating. Max got his pink Pygmy Puff 'Mo Mo' out its cage and started trying too teach it tricks. Daichi decided too take a nap and Tyson just sat there fiddling with his Beyblade.
After about half an hour Kai got bored with his book and got out a fashion magazine called 'CheekBone', Kai was starting too scare himself with the way he was acting; he'd been buying fashion magazines, growing his hair out and gone clothes shopping with Hilary! there just HAS too be something wrong him! Maybe he was ill. Maybe he wa- Kai stopped his train of thought sew a article on hair products. Kai's hand found its way to his plait "maybe I should straiten my hair". Feeling eyes on him Kai looks up to see the other bladers (not Daichi he's still a sleep)looking at him with wide eyes and mouths wide open. Kai fells his face heat up as he blushes a dark red "did I say that out loud?" he asks hesitantly only receiving a small nod from the others. Kai was starting to feel awkward with them all just staring at him but that awkwardness soon turned into fear once he see's Max's shock expression turn into a huge (creepy) smile.
Max quickly stud-up and moved Tyson so he(Max) was sitting next to Kai "I'll straiten your hair for you Kai!" he offers ecstatically "or maybe we could curl it! NO! crimp it!" he yells un plaiting a stunned Kai's hair. All of a sudden Kai starts smiling like a moron too as he pikes up his magazine and shows it to Max "I could put your hair in bunches!" he says and Max squeals in delight. "we'll need a hair brush and spray!" Kai yells with a determined look in his eyes as he pulls his trunk down from the luggage rack and starts rummaging through it. "we need some hair pins, bobbles and hair moos!" Max yells too doing the same as Kai while the other blades all(Daichi's awake) cower in the corner of the compartment; scared of the girlyness.
It had been a hole hour of complete girlyness before Kai and Max had calmed down, by that time they had styled each others hair: Max now had his hair in four bunches sticking out over his head where his hair used to stick out while Kai had his upper back length hair crimped and his fringe what now flat against his head and pulled out his face by blue hair pins. They had also bone each others nails: Kai's were painted baby blue and Max's pink. They'd even gone so fare as to do their make-up, where they got that other bladers will never know lets just say never under-estimate the powers of someone in a super girly mood.
They both had eyeliner ,mascara ,eye-shadow and a little bit of lip-gloss. They both had black eyeliner and mascara and light pink lip-gloss but Kai had blue eye-shadow which matched his face paint while Max's eye-shadow was a light shade of pink.
They had calmed down and stopped the makeover but were still talking about with was the best hair products. The others (Tyson ,Daichi and Rei) had come out of the corned ,they just sat there staring at the two with eyes so wide you'd think they'd fall out when a breathless third-year girl came into the compartment, she was about to say something but stopped and just looked at Kai and Max who hadn't stopped taking. Seeing she wanted to join the conversation Rei stud-up and asked "what is it?" snapping her out of her trance.
"OH! I'm supposed to deliver these to Kai H-Hiwatari" she faltered, as her eyes met Kai's who had looked up hearing his name being said. She paced him a scroll of parchment tied with violet ribbon. The girl stumbled back out of the compartment as Kai took it out her hand. Perplexed, Kai unrolled the scroll. "what is it?" Tyson asks sitting down next to Kai and looking over his shoulder to read the scroll "an invitation" Kai said.
--Kai
I would be delighted if you would loin me for a bite of lunch in compartment C.
Sincerely ,Professor H.E.F. Slughorn--
"who's Professor Slughorn?" Max asks, looking perplexedly at Kai's invitation. Kai shrugs "I don't know ,must be a new teacher" he says standing up "I should go see what he wants". Kai stands up walks to the compartment door but stops and turns back to them "I cant go out looking like this" he stats pointing to his face. Kai's eyes widen seeing how upset Max starts to look "nonononono Maxy! Its not that I don't like your work- in fact I love it! Its just if people see me like this it'll ruin my image!" he says quickly shacking his hands in front of himself. Max just nods sadly, Kai sighs "okay! You can…Ah! You can give me a full body makeover on Saturday!" Kai says looking down at Max who's head snaps up immediately "eve-!?" "even clothes" Kai says with a nervous smile knowing that was going to turn out badly.
Kai wipes away the eye-shadow and lip-gloss knowing that they were most obvious seen, he didn't have time to get the nail-varnish off and he knew there was no hope for his hair seeing as how much moose and hair spray was used to keep his hair flat on his head so when he left the compartment he still looked like a girl…well more girly.
