Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Inuyasha, though I enjoy playing with them.

Naraku suppressed a smirk. "I wish to be rid of the human soul that plagues me. It should be no problem for one such as you to remove."

Anisuke felt the curiosity bubble, a human soul attached to a yokai, how strange. "How did you manage to have a human soul attach itself to you? And why offer me any favor to be rid of it, surely it could not truly be a bother."

Naraku shifted, this little one was smarter then he had anticipated. "The human soul is that of the bandit Onigumo, as he lay dieing he made a pact with any demon that would listen to give his body to them to become a demon. He had become fixated on the miko that was tending to him, Kikyo. I was the demon that was created." Naraku looked to the side as he remembered a time he was not too fond of. "At first I was merely a vessel to house his soul as he turned Kikyo and her lover, Inuyasha, against each other. He made them believe that the other had betrayed them, this led to Kikyo's death and Inuyasha being sealed to a tree within the forest near Kikyo's village."

He paused as if trying to remember something that was at the very back of his mind, he was hardly even aware of Anisuke at this point. "For many years he was the controlling power, he wasted his time playing with human lives for amusement, he even cursed a monk with the power of the wind tunnel which passes from father to son and grows in power until it consumes the one who bears it.

Anisuke's mind traveled to the monk, Miroku, if he remembered correctly. He leaned against a tree as Naraku continued in an almost trancelike state. "It has only been recently that I have been able to become the dominant personality, through the use of the shards of the Shikon jewel. I have used it to remake myself several times, making myself more powerful in the attempt to purge myself of Onigumo, but even in a separate body that soul still influences my actions."

"Kikyo's soul was brought back to the land of the living by a dark witch by using the power of her reincarnation, Kagome." Anisuke felt his eyes narrow, her very name pissed him off. "She travels now, consuming souls and plotting a way to take Inuyasha to hell with her, as even though she knows that it was not he that betrayed her she still holds a grudge against him. I would personally enjoy ripping that woman's head from her body, but Onigumo's soul will not allow me to harm her, which aggravates me to no end."

Naruku finished with a scowl on his face, even thinking of that woman made him angry.

Inuyasha stared at the fire longingly as Kagome complained about some test she had to take back in her own time. He was so tired of her constantly whining about every little thing, she had gotten better after Anisuke put her in her place but she was still an immature little wench. He knew that sometimes his behavior was a bit childish, but at least he tried to make up for it later and he actually owned up to it, she thought that her actions were perfectly fine, she even thought that wearing 'jeans' and a shirt was an improvement. Songo may wear pants when in battle, but she changed into a kimono as they neared a village. So now instead of thinking that Kagome was a whore, they thought that she was some kind of demon man with a female face, a real improvement.

"Inuyasha! Are you even listening to me?" Kagome was standing in front of him with her hands on her hips, wonderful. "I come to this backwards era to help you look for jewel shards and you don't even listen to me! SIT!"

Scotland, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Dumbledore sat at his desk, sucking on a lemon drop as he sorted through the post. The Minister was trying to deny that Voldemort had returned and was trying to prove that he was senile and not suited to protect their children. Amazingly the were not doing the same to Potter, they were painting him as the manipulated hero that was being deluded into saying that He was back. Potter was now a rallying point for many of the people who wanted to see him out of power, he had received numerous howlers demanding that he let Potter out of wherever he had hidden him, simply ridiculous. He was almost glad that those Dursleys had gone to Japan, no one would look for the Boy-Who-Lived that far from home.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sirius was pissed, Dumbledore wouldn't let him out of this damned house, he was tired of being a prisoner. He wanted to be free, and if he couldn't have that he at least wanted to have his godson. Harry was his world, the only thing that kept him going, Remus had his own life, and was constantly going out on Order business. All Sirius really wanted was to hold his Prongslet in his arms and never let him go, but he wasn't even allowed to write him a letter, not even a letter!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hermione and Ron were not even thinking of their 'friend', they were much too busy making out on Ron's bed in the Burrow. They had only been going out since the second day of summer, but were already groping each other when they found the chance. Neither one of them were worried about Harry, he was probably fine and they had more important things to do.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remus nursed his newest wound as he moved to the back of the cave, he couldn't believe that Dumbledore thought that any werewolf pack would ever joined a side with him on it. After all, Dumbledore had been on the muggleborn's side for years and the majority of the anti-werewolf laws were put forth and passed by muggleborns. Remus himself was not that fond of them, they brought the prejudices of the muggle world to the wizarding one. They thought that werewolves were just like the ones in their fairytale books. He sighed as he downed another healing potion. Hopefully the next pack he had to visit was in a better mood.

The only thing that had saved him this last time was the fact that he knew Harry. He had been shocked that while werewolves hated Dumbledore they loved Harry, he was floored when they explained after the 'disagreement'. Turns out that Harry had run into a werewolf when he was younger and had helped him by tending his wounds, both when he was a wolf and when he was a man. The werewolf had asked why he was helping him and Harry said. "When someone is hurt, they deserve to be taken care of." It takes a very rare wizard to think of a magical creature as a person, as sad as that is.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No one in all of England had any idea that Harry was no longer with the Dursleys, maybe, just maybe they should have paid more attention to their savoir. The Dursleys themselves were more then happy to be free of the presence of the little 'freak'.

Review and let me know how you feel about this question, I need to know before I continue. Should I make make Onigumo the bad guy, or Naraku? This will affect one of the future pairings - not telling you with whom.

Voldemort looked over his ranks in mild disgust, what was once a glorious army was now a forth of the size it once was. It was at times like these that he wished that he had not jumped to conclusions about the fragment of prophecy that Snape had brought, perhaps there had been a better way to handle the situation. Oh well, it seems as if it is time to take a small trip to Azkaban.
