Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Inuyasha.
Thank you to everyone who reviewed. I know its a short chapter, but I wanted to get the clean night out of the way in its own chapter. The full version will eventually be up on aff . net under the same title but I want to take my time on it.
Anisuke knew he was dreaming there was no way he could be doing anything else, because standing before him was James and Lily Potter. Only they did not look like the pictures he had been given in first year.
James was tall with a regal bearing, messy black hair and bright mischievous hazel eyes, but the part that got Anisuke's attention was the fact that he had two ears much like his own on the top of his head. Of course the four long tails swinging behind him. He was grinning in a way that made Anisuke very nervous, it was the kind of grin that tells you that the other has something highly unpleasant planned in your near future.
Lily was radiant. Her hair was ruby red and flowed to about mid back in large waves. Her emerald eyes, so similar to his own, sparkled with a rarely found intelligence. She did not have animal ears like they did, but her ears were pointed, giving away her lack of a human bloodline.
Anisuke felt a great wave of relief pass over him. His parents were still the Potters, he was ecstatic, the people that he had loved for years as his parents were his parents.
Lily's lips curved into a smile. "My beautiful baby boy, my Harry, or should I say Anisuke?" He felt a blush rise up. "You've become such a wonderful yokai, even without us there to help you."
For several moments they just stood there gazing at each other, enjoying each other's company. Eventually they found themselves in the middle of the mental clearing as Anisuke dubbed it. It was then that James got somber. "There are some things that you need to know. First, Lily is not in anyway related to that horse-like bitch from hell." Anisuke felt his eyes widen. "Her parents were both full-blooded wind yokai, they placed her with the Evans family so that she could experience a normal life."
James chuckled when he saw the confusion on his boy's face. "In the future, the worlds of humans and yokai are separated even more then the muggle and wizarding ones. They are more like completely separate planets, and let's just say that the human one has fewer completely psychotic yokai running around. My family is full of Midnight Kitsune because of the unique manner of breeding we possess. We can mate with any kind of being and our children will always be full-blooded in whatever manner we wish. So when you have kits," another full face flush inserted here, "they can be full-blooded Midnight Kitsunes, Inu yokai, wolf yokai, or whatever that last mate of yours is. We chose for you to be a Midnight Kitsune so that you could have a little bit more protection."
It was here that Lily cut in. "Even with your heritage you should not have been able to survive the killing curse, and even though I have been searching for answers in the afterlife I can't find anything. You are the only one to accomplish something like that, and I am so proud of everything that you have done after that, you managed to survive that horrid woman and that disgusting family, you took on a possessed teacher, a ballisk, a horde of Dementers, and Voldemort himself along with his inner circle. Everyday you amaze me."
Anisuke could not have been happier, he had always wondered if his parents would have approved of him.
James smiled and playfully pulled on one of his son's cute little ears. "Dumbledore doesn't know about my heritage or Lily's family, all he knows is that you survived while no one else did. I kick myself everyday for getting myself killed and leaving you at that manipulative man's mercy. I was so worried about you and Lily that I panicked and acted like a pathetic human, can you forgive me?"
Anisuke pounced onto his father in tears. "Of course! You were only thinking about your family, exactly what a father should do."
"I want you to do something for me." Anisuke turned in his father's lap to look at his mother. "My family is still alive in our time. They think that we all died that night, which is the only reason that they didn't come for you. I want you to go to our time and find them, let them know that they didn't fail us, that I lived a happy life, and that you are now happy." Her face lit up. "And if you and your mates make life difficult for Dumbledore and Voldie while your there, well then I'm sure that even Kami will look the other way for a while."
James threw his head back and let out a musical laugh. "Oh no, knowing Kami he'll probably be sitting with his son watching the whole thing go down with a tub of popcorn, he might even decide to help."
They spent what felt like days going over his abilities and stories about his family and earlier childhood. An even longer stretch of time was spent just cuddling like they hadn't been able to do in life.

When Anisuke awoke he was so very, very hot, it felt like he was burning alive from the inside out. He vaguely heard the door to his room burst open and loud growls fill the night air but he was too hot to care. He only realized he wasn't alone when he felt wonderfully cold hands running over his suddenly bare stomach. They felt so good against his heated skin, they were soon joined by other hands and mouths as Anisuke felt himself slipping into pure bliss.
Please review. The next chapter will be longer.
