Chapter 11
Returns and The Lovegood's
It was night time and Harry had gone out for the first shift guarding. We had just eaten dinner. Hermione was silent and my thoughts were my own.
'Hermione please cheer up.' I whispered more of a beg then a command. I wanted her to smile again.
She said nothing as she put her book down and laid her head on her up curled knees on the wooded step. The radio blasted with a new song. I laughed.
Perfect.
I started dancing to Katy Perry Fireworks singing along reaching for Hermione. Without smiling she took my hand and we started dancing with each other. I laughed because it was so ridiculous. A second laugh joined in as Hermione's face lit up for the first time in weeks.
'
We dropped to the floor hugging each other because we were laughing so hard. I realized suddenly that to me, Hermione had taken place from my stolen sister.
'Yashie.'
'Mmm.'
'Yashie!'
'Hermione! What the hell!'
I rolled over in my bunk glaring at her. I was right on the edge of sleep, disappointed that she had interrupted me in my sleep.
'Harry's gone!' she shook me again as if to wake me up again.
'What!' I shrieked ripping off my blankets grabbed Tetseiga.
It was cold and bitter, my stomach and chest cringed away from the chill as I ran out in sweats and a spring hoody.
I ran around in circles following Harry's scent over and over again. I heard a splash, I shuddered as my soul suddenly as if it had been plunged into cold water.
I ran up to the lake. I saw the crack Harry had made to jump in, a ruby glint, but no Harry.
I felt sick as if my soul was being squeezed out of me. I clutched my throat as something moved in the bush.
'Harry?'
The was a tiny little grinding sound from under me, I looked down.
A tiny spec of ice went from white to clear, I watched in, wondering what caused the hole when-
The Horcruxes chain flew up from the ice extending to an incredible length. I screamed like a bloody murder as the chain wrapped around my ankle and up my leg as it sealed itself and pulled down.
My body smashed into the ice, feeling my arm snap as it hit the frozen rock.
The freezing water stung my lungs and I struggled for the chain to let go. I couldn't swim up as something was struggling to keep me down. I looked down to see Harry, struggling to get the constricting chain off of his neck.
I swam further down, my air lowly decreasing as I grabbed under the chain and pulled. The chain snapped off of him. Smiling I saw a flame in the water, someone had jumped in, pulling Harry, who was in nothing but his boxers up. They had no the after a moment I could not see the flame.
But I couldn't move.
The chain had wrapped around both my legs as I started to sink. I my drowned out ears A high itched laugh sounded as the piece of chain wrapped itself around my neck.
I struggled with it, but it wouldn't break like last time. I was out of air, I felt my body slowly give up as it began to loose consciousness.
I felt my burst of energy coming. I hoped my eyes to see everything around me was white. Then I exploded.
The water, the chains everything blasted away from me as all energy blasted upwards. The pool was left dry. The water had disappeared.
I grabbed Tetseiga, and climbed up. Soaking wet. To hear the words, with a voice like Hermione's only more horrible, ' What have you done. Compared to the Boy Who Lived?'
I pulled out the sword where it's defind ring sang through the night.
Harry:
'RON STAB IT!'
Ron's hands slowly dropped as he let go of the sword then looked at Harry with red eyes. Riddle-Hermione cooed ' What have you ever done, compared to the Chosen One? What are you, compared to the Boy Who Lived?'
A defined ring of Tetsiega came from the lake as a soaking wet InuYasha walked into the clearing. The Riddle-Hermione and Harry hissed. And everything was gone in a flash.
Ron fell to his knees as Harry whispered words of comfort to him. To think, of wanting Hermione ( Though he was her best friend.) when he already had the love of his life.
'Guys,' Spoke the love of his life. ' I don't think this is over. Ron didn't stab it.' Yashie hissed sniffing the wind.
Harry raised his head to look at her. 'I don't understand, it's gone.'
InuYasha shook her head. ' My blades demon made. It cuts through everything. It's better then Goblin. It scented a bigger threat.'
Just then something in the forest shifted. Making no sound.
There stood InuYasha, but he had only seen her like this once before.
Her hair was white as her skinny red cloth outfit clung to her like in was melted into her body. Her eyes were red with blue slits.
Yashie's eyes grew wide as she held the sword to the locket. Apparently frozen.
'No…' She whispered as her double danced a walk towards her. This was Riddle-Yasha 'What Yashie? Don't like your true form?'
Yashie shook her head. And suddenly fifty people, men, women, children all lay around Yashie. Hermione and Ron were among them. Harry's head, unconnected to his body was in InuYasha's hand being held up by his hair.
' why would he choose you? Old women? He doesn't even know the truth about his little demon? Who you are, how much you've LIED'
'Shut UP!'
'Why? Monster, scared of what you will become, murder? Or what you already are?' InuYasha cooed to her, as a mother to a baby. The demon pulse. As Yashie cringed and growled.
'STAB IT YASHIE!' Harry screamed as her snarl became more pronounced.
Her eyes flashed scarlet as him and grinned a horrible grin.
The sword plunged.
Dropped the sword after stabbing it howling in pain. She clutched her left arm.
Ron was up in a flash prodding it. He screamed louder at one point. ' I think it's broken. We better get her to Hermione.
Yashie:
'Okay, so that didn't go as well as I thought it would.'
As I healing Ron's black eye. ' I didn't think Hermione would punch you before Harry could put a shield charm between you two. ' I giggled. It had been a funny scene to me, and apparently only me. It was the next day. And Hermione was still shooting angry looks at Ron.
'Harry, you know that triangle in Hermione's book and on the grave?' I asked to break the cold silence.
Harry nodded, he kept his eyes on Hermione. Not wanting her to attack again.
I took a deep breath. ' I want to go to the Lovegood house. He wore that sign at Fluer's wedding and I think he could help us.'
Hermione spoke for the first time. 'I agree,'
I laughed at what happened next, Ron internally scrambled at the chance to make amends with Hermione. ' Let's put it to a vote! All in favour?'
I shot my hand up like him, just so he wouldn't look like an idiot. Hermione reluctantly raised her hand slowly.
Five minutes later, the four of us packed up and Apperated to the hills above the Burrow.
'Weirdest house EVER.' I exclaimed again as we knocked on the door of the rook looking house. A old man answered. He caught the sight of me. I had leather shorts on, leather shin guards along with my knee high boots. Leather strapped wrapped randomly around my stomach, and leather bra with my sword hit attached to the back. My hair short and I was ready for a battle. He took the apparent threat seriously, and let us in without a word.
I sat in the room, watching an owl fly from the house towards the sky. As soon as it was out of sight I began to listen.
'To think that young man attacking me at your brothers wedding! Does any of you know the story of the three brothers?'
Harry said 'No,' While Hermione and Ron said 'Yes.'
I didn't answer.
Of course I knew the story. I myself was the second brother. Though I didn't die. I came to Hogwarts. Huh. Kayla had been the first brother, but it was taken from her along time ago by a wizard. InuSuke was the third and the only real brother of us three, and he had given his invisibility cloak to a human boy in Old England.
I supposed they scratched the real story.
"There was once three brothers who were travelling along a lonely, winding road at twilight.
In time, the brothers reached a river too deep to wade through and too dangerous to swim across. However, these brothers were learned in the and so they simply waved their wands and a bridge appeared across the treacherous water. They were halfway across it when they found their path blocked by dark hooded figure.
And Death spoke to them-'
Oh. Of course, Death spoke to us. What a load of bull crap. Yes, we had formed a bridge over a river, and yes we were blocked by a figure. But he was in a white cloak, and he was the Guardian of Time. Not Death! Death wasn't a thing its an event. An occurrence.
The Guardian of Time spoke to us because our "Time" had been up. We had lived our lives and it had been time to end them. We were the masters of Death. So we had earned items that would keep us in this world longer.
Kayla saw that the only way to survive was by fighting, so the Guardian of Time made the ultimate wand out of a the legendary InuYasha tree. Granting her amazing magical powers.
I had been in love with Kiyoto at that point. At disgusting as it was I humbly asked for a way to gain him back. He had died, having run out of souls. He died once, I never wanted that pain. The Guardian handed me a black stone. I turned it three times. And Kiyoto appeared once more.
InuSuke was clever though. He asked for a cloak that would grant him the ability to escape enemies with his loved once. Airi had been pregnant at the time. The Guardian walked over to the water, were drops of the substance collected in his hand. And before us was a cloak of silver invisibility.
So we all left slowly for different times, under fake names.
Kayla went to near past where Dumbledore was young. She had her ultimate wand stolen from her, she returned home in shame. Saying that she died and a grave in London that was dedicated to her read "Antioch Peverell'.
I went to America, a very far time in the past with Kiyoto. We stayed their for a short time, but when they discovered I was a half breed they kicked us out, stating that I had been killed. Though I left that time to go with Kiyoto home, I have a grave in America that reads. "Cadmus Peverell'.
Finally, InuSuke went to Godric Hollow when in was just a village. He spend years there, leaving Airi alone in Japan. The day he was set to leave, or "die" he saw a small boy who's father was a criminal. They boy was young, and innocent and wanted to go to school, but he could not step into school for the other children beat him whenever he tried. With InuSuke having a daughter on the way his heart went out to the boy. He walked over to the boy and told him what the cloak was. He made the boy swear that he would never show his father, but pass it along to his first child. And make that child promise to pass it along to his first child. The child promised, thrilled with the way to get into the school without the children seeing him.
That night a dusk Kayla and I came for InuSuke. He would reappear ( Though it had been many years since.) To the day after we left Feudal Japan. Together in this world the Peverells died, wear the old graves were written of "Antioch, Cadmus, and Ignotus Peverell." Together we descended into our own time, the true masters of Death.
If I could just remember that boys name…
Suddenly I was being dragged upstairs, it saw out the window two back cloaked figures. Lovegood pointed his wand at us and a giant bang sounded. And suddenly the house seemed to be pull of unfamiliar sounds, Harry yelling in a foreign language.
That bastard had made me forget ever bit of English I knew so I couldn't help them escape.
Screams of convincing and pain sounded up. I heard the sound of a spell hit some type of horn.
The house exploded, and it lay in ruin. The four of us fell. Ron under the cloak Harry grabbing his forehead and Hermione spinning on the spot. The Death Eaters saw Harry and yelled out, But we Apperated before they came into three paces.
We landed in soft grass. I buckled as my tongue unrolled, and the charm wore off and I laid flat on the grass.
My broken arm was screaming. I had refused for anyone to but it into a sling and that it would be healed by tonight. But it would take longer now that it was re-broken. I prodded my arm as the argued feeling the splinters of bone. Great, this was exactly what I needed.
'You-Know-Who's after the Elder wand.'
I gasped as I grasped what Harry was saying. ' Harry… I don't think he's going to find it.'
It all seemed obvious now. Dumbledore had given Harry the stone and the Cloak. But… I had the Elder wand.
'Why do you say that?'
I cocked my head, wondering how to show them.
Harry had my wand, but I had the Elder wand. ' Ignite!' I yelled pointing Dumbledore's wand at dead candle. It wasn't a spell. And I'd look really stupid if I just stood there pointing Dumbledore's wand like an idiot.
But I didn't, the candle didn't just light up. A beam of white hot flames shot up from the candle and burned a hole through the tent ceiling. 'Stop!' I commanded flicking Dumbledore's wand at the pillar, and it went out immediately. ' Repair yourself!' I pointed the wand at the hole in the ceiling and the cloth knitted back together.
I looked at them beaming. I had the Elder wand. Kayla's ultimate wand. It was home at last.
Harry looked at me with obsession. Hermione had stopped talking staring blankly at me. And Ron who had been playing with the radio stopped with his wand to it.
'That's Dumbledore-'
The radio swirled and the voice of Fred Weasley came through the radio. ' I never thought I would say this bit, Safety First!'
'Thank you very much for those wise words Rapier.' came the voice of Lee Jordan the Weasley twins best friend. ' Listeners, that brings us to the end of another Potter watch. We don't know if it will be possible to broadcast again, but you can be sure we shall be back. Keep twiddling those dials: the next password will be "Mad-Eye". Keep each other safe. Keep faith. Goodnight.'
Another round of shock flew through us. We had heard our old friends and families voices. I beamed even wider, looking at Harry.
My beam dropped instantly as Harry looked at me with a crazy expression. It was ownership, obsession.
'Give me the wand InuYasha.' Harry whispered as he took a step slowly forward. I retreated back.
'Why?'
'I want the wand now InuYasha.'
My back hit the cloth wall. ' Harry. Your scaring me.'
'NOW INUYASHA!' Harry yelled as Ron jumped up to step in front of him.
'Go to Hell.' This was my sisters. I love him but he's not getting this wand, not with that attitude.
'GIVE IT TO ME! I'M YOUR DOMINATOR YOU HALF-BREED!' Harry shrieked lunging at me.
'Get off me!' I screamed.
There was a bang and Harry flew into another direction.
'How dare you call me a half-breed!' I shrieked at him in agony, and pain. The words shot through my head like ice. ' If you let this obsession get to you you'll be just as bad as Vol-'
'InuYasha Don't!' Ron yelled running towards me.
' demort.'
There was crash and a shattering. Ron bounded at me. 'The names jinxed! We have to-'
The Sneak-a-scope had lit up and started to spin. Foot steps came closer and closer. Ron clicking the Deluminator shut of all the lamps.
A rasping voice yelled right outside the door. ' Come out of there with your hands up! We've got half a dozen wands on you and we don't care who we curse!'
