So here ya go. Another chapter. I don't really have any ideas for the next one so it may be a while before I put a new one up.
I no own D. Gray Man or Harry Potter. No sueing please.
The past few weeks had been interesting for the Exorcists. Following Kanda's blunt declaration of his dating Allen the rest of the students behavior towards the transfers had changed slightly. The Slytherins, Malfoy especially, had attempted to be more polite (or just less rude) to Allen after Kanda nearly broke Malfoy's arm. The student body seemed to watch the couple more closely, wondering just how the two had gotten together. The couple still fought loudly, not caring where they were or who was around, but there were also the rare glimpses of the two being sweet together. The quick looks that passed between the two when one would help the other. they truly did seem like they were in love during those moments.
Umbridge clearly disliked the interactions between the two boys and was not very subtle about it. This displeased most of the students who rather liked the boys, they felt that they should be allowed to date if it made them happy. The couple took very sadistic pleasure in verbally defeating the Ministry woman whenever they got the chance. They blatantly ignored the new rules the woman kept creating, being as close as they pleased right in front of the woman. They would refuse to report to her office for detentions as well as help anyone else who wished to avoid the irritating woman.
Harry was very busy with his small army, trying to practice their spells in the Room of Requirement to get ready to face the Dark Lord. Hermione had invited the four transfers to join them for a session, thinking it alright for them to try out with the option of not joining as long as they didn't tell on them. That had been an interesting experience, especially when Kanda and Neah had recognized the room.
The four had entered the room following Hermione, the new couple glancing at each other as they recognized the door that appeared. They seemed to be deep in a silent conversation with many gestures and flushed faces on Neah's part. Hermione had turned to the boys in confusion. "What's the matter?"
Neah had looked at her shyly, his face flushed red. "Me and Kanda have been in here before. We stumbled on it when we were looking for some place that was….. quiet."
Hermione was confused at first, then she understood the implied meaning and flushed. This only made Neah blush harder as he looked to his boyfriend for some sort of help. Apart from a slight blush Kanda appeared to be ignoring them, purposely looking anywhere in the room except where for his lover was.
Hermione seemed very awkward as she looked around the room they had been using as a secret hideout. It was just weird to be in the room now that she knew what the boys had been doing in it.
Kanda grunted, "It wasn't like this when we were in here. The room was different."
Neah seemed slightly comforted by this but it didn't stop him from punching his boyfriend hard on the shoulder.
The older boy growled at him. "You really want to start this now? It's been a while since we've had a proper spar." He didn't wait for a reply, just leapt at his boyfriend, fist drawn back.
The silverette smirked at his dark boyfriend and dodged, kicking out at him viciously.
The boys had been at it for a few minutes before the wizards in the room seemed to realize what was happening and turned to watch with dropped jaws.
The boys moved with almost inhumane speed as they swung at each other with deadly aim. They ducked and dodged when they could, pounding into each other with fists and legs when they couldn't. Neha flipped backwards as Kanda aimed a roundhouse kick at his chin, rushing forward when it didn't connect. Neah cracked his elbow into his boyfriend's jaw, making him back up and look dazed for a moment before snarling and knocking his lover's feet out from under him. "Give up yet?" He smirked down at his lover who looked slightly confused before grinning and returning the favor, smashing his foot into the other's knee, bringing him to his knees. "You?" The silverette smirked.
This seemed to continue for half an hour until Lenalee shouted out at her dueling friends, "Enough guys! Let the others practice will you?" The two separated, panting but still looking like they could keep going if necessary. Kanda just che'd and stalked over to the wall to sit down, his little lover following with a grin.
The students didn't seem to notice that the two had stopped their mad fight until the boys sat with a thump and stared at them, waiting for them to go back to practicing. Harry was the first to snap out of it, approaching the panting boys. "That was amazing! How did you do that?"
The two stared at him silently and exchanged a look. "We're used to fighting. It's how we dealt with problems before we learned magic, we've only known magic for a little while. Knowing how to fight is almost more useful than knowing magic. You can fight in any situation against any opponent, magic you can't." Neah stared at him, completely serious as his boyfriend leant back against the wall.
"Used to fighting? How do you become used to fighting?" Ron asked as he came up next to Harry.
The four Exorcists stared at each other, Kanda raised an eyebrow while the others faces were more surprised. Lenalee stepped forward to answer for all of them. "Where we're from if you can't fight you can't survive. We're from a much harsher place. Not everything can be solved with magic."
The wizards were at a loss. They weren't used to the thought of magic not being useful. They stared at the four who looked completely used to this thought, even nice Lenalee.
"So what kind of spells are you going over now?" Lavi asked with a light tone in an attempt to lighten the mood.
"The Patronus Charm." Hermione stated and saw a light of interest in the transfers' eyes.
"Patronus Charm?" Lavi asked happily. "Wasn't that what you were looking at yesterday Lena-lady?"
Lenalee nodded. "Yeah. It looks kind of difficult."
Kanda snorted. "Yeah right. We'll see how hard it is."
Neah elbowed his boyfriend, a dark light in his eyes, "Bet I can do it before you can Bakanda!" He shoved off from the wall and landed on his feet, dancing away from his now pissed companion.
Kanda sneered, "I'll win that bet."
The four transfers joined the rest of the group and spread out, asking for help from the students who had practiced it more. Lenalee was the first to be successful, producing a Patronus shaped like a falcon that soared around the room. Neah was next, much to Kanda's annoyance, producing an almost blindingly bright wolf that came over to Neah for a scratch on the chin before disappearing. Kanda was a few minutes after Neah, producing a rather dark Patronus shaped like a panther. The couple thought it rather ironic that their Patronus' were the same shape as their favorite Transfiguration forms. Lavi took longer than the others for some reason, producing, ironically enough, a rabbit that immediately ran behind Kanda, tripping him. After Kanda chased the redhead around the room a few times they returned to practicing.
A loud banging stopped the group of students. They all turned to the door of the room, waiting for whatever it was to happen. The door exploded inwards and umbridge stood there, several of her disciplinary squad behind her. She looked very pleased with herself. It made the Exorcists want to wipe that look off her face. Kanda and Neah actually growled at the woman before they exchanged looks with their companions, a slight nod, they knew what they were going to do. The four drew their wands and waved them, apparating out of the room. The rest of the students and Umbridge stared at where the four had been, not quite believing that they could even apparate. Apparition was something students didn't learn until their last year and even then most couldn't do it very well. Yet there were three brand new students who had only been studying for a few months and another who had only been studying for little over a year who could do it without hesitating. What can't these guys do?
So yeah, I made them apparate out of there. I don't know when exactly the students learn how to apparate so I just said it was the last year cuz apparently its hard so yeah.
