Hi again! =) I'm so so sorry this took so long! I started writing this part as a short bit at the beginning but I kept adding and adding until it was big enough to be a chapter on its own! The full chappy would have probably been about 12k words! So while I'm writing the 'rest' of the chapter I thought I'd upload this as a semi filler but kind of 'you need to know' sorta thing. Reviews are at the bottom and hope you enjoy. Just so you know his hasn't been Beta'd, I just wanted to upload it asap but I did proof read it about three times ^^

Thank you for following/Favoriting/reviewing! Makes my day!


"Sorry to disturb you, may I?" Hermione approached Rin as he sat in the sand looking out at the endless ocean and open sky in front of him. He jolted and looked around as the brunette stood a few feet away.

"Sure," he said with a smile and she sat next to him and opened a small container and offered him a sandwitch. He gratefully took one and took a bite.

"We'll be daparting for gringotts in a few hours, I just wanted to talk to you without the others." Rin turned to her an she looked away, hiding her face behind her bushy hair. "It's about about the nature of what we're looking for, Ron an Harry wouldn't be to happy about me telling you but It's only fair since you'll be helping us an you told us everything so..." she took a deep breath and met his eye. "You already know it's a small cup with Hufflpuff's crest on it but it's actually something we need to destroy You-Know-Who, a piece of his soul, a-"

"Harcrux." He finished for her. Her brows furrowed in surprise an he backed away as much as he could, hands held up defensively. "I can't help it, I overheard you an the others talking, ya'no... oversensetive hearing an stuff.." he looked down bashfully but Hermione chuckled.

"I should have known. Well, they're essentially pieces of his soul and even if we manage to kill him he can come back to life. He already has it once." She trained off and sighed. "Oh! Almost forgot. Can I take a look at your tail?" Rin immediately stiffened and his tail which had been laying behind him curled around his waist tightly.

"Um...why?" He asked a little to high pitched.

"Please? I won't hurt you." She said quickly. He shrunk in on himself and leaned away a little. He trusted Hermione but if nobody touched his tail ever again it would be to soon. "How about you just hold it up? I don't have to touch it an it won't hurt." She tried softly. He stayed where he was for a few second before slowly uncurling his tail and catching the end and holding it at eye level. Hermione raised her wand, her brows furrowing in concentration and a ball of light flew from her wand to his tail. He cringed and recoiled but their was only a pleasently warm feeling before hair slowly started to grow out of the bald patches and before his eyes, his tail looked as it always had.

"Woah...thats amazing!" He mused, staring and poking at his tail with disbelief. "Thanks!" Hermione grinned triumphantly.

"You're welcome. I never even thought of using it before." She went quiet while Rin prodded and stroked the new fun in astonishment, oblivious to her words. "Anyway, we should go an get some rest before we head out later, their are still some last minute things to do." She said a little louder, distracting him. His expression turned serious and nodded, rising and walking back to the cottage with Hermione. Instead of following her in he lay down on the portch bench, after spending so much time in the cellar he felt a little uncomfortable in the small attic room with the others. He kept his gaze on the ocean recalling the last two weeks, smiling to himself as the memories flew through his mind and into his dreams as he fell asleep.

...

"tho Rin, Ho' ol' er' yeh?" Ron sprayed food everywhere. Bill, Rin an Harry erupted into laughter at the sight as he forcefully swallowed an his ears turned pink. "I said how old are you Rin?" Once Rin recovered he answered.

"Me an Yuki turned 16 in December," everyone at the table froze. Hermione looked at him wide eyed.

"R-really? I thought you where much younger! You're so-" she trailed off an turned away blushing.

"Bloody hell mate! Really? But you're tiny! Like.. shorter than Luna! An no offence mate but you act like a ten year old sometimes-OUCH!" He shot Hermione a venomous look as she aparrently kicked him under the table. Rin flushed an his tail curled in agitation, a vein bulged from his forhead to complete the look.

"I'M NOT THAT SHORT! You're just a lanky idiot!"

"He has a point, they're only a year older an even I'm taller. Are you sure Satan is your father an not a goblin?" Rin gnashed his teeth while the group failed to conceal their giggles at Luna's remark.

"Goblins are short little green things with an earth affinity, they don't weild fire." Rin hissed, imitating Ron by shoving as much food as possible in his mouth an use it as a reason not to talk.

"I think you're mistaken, griphook is a goblin or are their a class of demons called goblins?" Hermione asked, intrigued. Rin could only nod. "Fascinating, what are they like?"

...

...

"So why is Harry so uptight over this you-know-who?" Rin whispered to Ron who lay on the opposite bed. Harry's even breathing told him the boy was asleep an he had been itching for an opportunity to ask. Rons lidded eyes widened slightly an he grunted.

"He killed his parents." Hermione was the one to reply. Harry squirmed a little at the knowledge.

"When was it if you don't mind me asking." He asked apologetically.

"Shortly after he was born. He grew up with his aunt an uncle, they aren't the nicest of muggles." Rin frowned.

"Oh.. I thought it would have been more recent, I can understand him begrudging him for not having parents but I think he's taking it a little to deeply to heart." Their was a sharp intake of breath from the bundle of covers where Ron lay.

"Thats not really fair, I mean, imagine growing up with no mum or dad! Its horrible when you think about it."

"I don't mean any offence, my mum died when I was born an I don't really have a real father, that basdard doesn't count. I grew up with my adoptive father Shiro, Satan killed him right in front of me a little over a year ago." Their was an awkward silence that seemed to last for ages before;

"Sorry for bringing it up. That must have been awful. "Hermione's tone was almost teary. Rin tried to sound dismissive.

"It was a while ago now. I'm going to kill Satan and avenge him. Once I have Kurikara back I'll become an exorcist, become the paladin an go to gehenna an kill him myself." Rin sighed. "I dont mean to make little of it but why is Harry so devistated over his parents when he never even met them?"

...

"I can't believe you Yuki? Some exorcist you are!" Rin complained while they waited on the crowded platform for the train to come. Yukio had been putting up with Rins complaining all the way here and his patience had just ran out. He turned to Rin with fury blazing in his eyes.

"Grr, I get it! I'm an idiot for loosing the key to the monistary, just drop it already! It's not like we have to walk all the way their! Aren't I allowed to make a mistake every now an then? You're ALAYS loosing things! How many times have you lost your cram school key?" He raged, catching Rin off guard. The bluenette folded his arms an pouted.

"Yeah but it's not like I can't just go with you or go to the boys dorm an go with Bon an the others. Their is only ONE of the monistary keys!" He whined as the train finally pulled in an they where swept forward in the crown filing into the train. The journey was silent, both brothers deliberately looking away from each other. When they came to their stop they waded through the crowds to the exit and stepped out into the icy winter air, snow crunching benieth their feet. The street was covered in a 10inch blanket of fluffy white snow that still showed no sign of letting up. They found the narrow backstreet that lead to the monistary and walked through. Rin grumbled.

"I still can't believe the clown wouldn't let us come home until after the holidays, I don't care if their are salamanders in the forest! It's not like their aren't hundreds of other exorcists who could have done it! Making us work on our birthday, thats just evil!" Yuki chuckled.

"It happens, it's been a busy period. Atleast he extended our winter break by a week to make it up."

"We still missed the christmas party, "Rin grumbled with a lot less throttle.. The small amount of sky that was visible above the narrow alley had started turning dark as they walked. "What time is it? It can't be four already!" Yukio looked up, having not noticed the darkening sky an stopped, checking his watch.

"You didn't sleep in that late, wait, its only midday." The younger said frowning. Rin looked around and automatically gripped the the bag on his back, eyes darting around looking for any demons that could be lurking about.

"What do you think it could be?" He asked while unzipping the bag and taking kurikara out ready. "Yuki?" He turned around to see why he went silent but nobody was their. What little light was their before diminished and he was plunged into pure darkness. He called out again but the only sound that greeted his ears was the sound of a snake hissing. "Who's there?!" He said, drawing kurikara and letting his flames loose.

"Magnificent. The flames of Satan himself! My my, how delectable! I have read so much about you!" The twisted voice that floated through his head was cruel yet amused.

"Who are you? Show yourself!" He shouted, lowering himself into a defencive stance and trying to see through the dark. The voice only chuckled.

"All that power gone to waste, such a foolish boy. I will put your power of yours to a much more noble use." It hissed. Rin spun around in a circle, he tried expanding his flames around him but they couldn't penetrate the blackness like it had solid form. A small red ball of light shot through the darkness and towards him, to fast for him to evade. He spun to try an move but it hit him in the side, to his surprise it felt like someone slapping him an he chuckled.

"That all you can do?" He yelled with a smirk. The voice didn't falter.

"So you are resistant to magic, fascinating. No matter..." the voice trailed off. Something hit him square between the shoulder blades and he felt like tiny blades spread out in all directions, cutting his flesh from where he was hit. Without any warning a hand folded around his neck with another pressed something to his mouth which burned and sizzled when it came into contact with his skin. He could just make out the hand holding the rag to his mouth, it was silvery, almost like it was made of metal. He gasped in surprise and the agonizing burning spread down his throat and set his lungs aflame. He struggled against the arms holding him but his strength was dissolving as he inhailed again, no longer able to hold his breath. He dropped kurikara and made one last bid too get away and managed to release himself from his captor and stumble forward. He reached to where kurikara was but it flew on it's own a few yards out of his reach like someone had kicked it.

"So this is where your powers are sealed? I promise I will make good use of it." The voice hissed, sounding more distant as Rin struggled to stay conscious, having trouble coordinating his limbs.

"G-give it back!" He yelled desperately, scrambling to his feet. He took one shaky step towards where it lay when the hands where on him again, the rag pressed against his mouth an nose. As he struggled a face swam into view right before his eyes. The twisted face of a man with a flat, serpentine nose an jagged teeth.

"Welcome to our ranks my young prince of the underworld."

...

Rin woke up with a start, grasping at his throat as the dream followed him into consciousness and it took him a few moments to realise he was sitting on a bench outside of shell cottage and not being gagged out with holy water. Once he got himself together he headed inside and was immediately greeted by Bill, Fleur and Luna who where preparing lunch. He offered his assistance but they told him to go an relax with the others who where in their room as always.

"Are you ready for this? We'll be leaving after dinner." Hermione said as he entered the room.

"Yeah, I want to call Yuki before we go but that's it." He said, plopping down on the bed next to Hermione with a warm smile. Out of the corner of his eye he caught Ron narrow his eyes but asumed he was hungry. Griphook, the goblin who was going to take them through gringotts stared at him as he always did, he had grown used to his stare but it still irritated him,. Ever since first meeting the goblin he barely ever spoke, only stared like Rin might erupt into flames an kill everyone at anytime. He shrugged it off and let Harry speak. They went over their plan once more, tieing in every last detail. Although hearing it all over again bored Rin half to death he still listened intently, not wanting to be the one to mess this up. An hour later they where shouted and they made their way to the kitchen in a manner that onlookers may thing was a last meal.

After lunch they made their way to the room to make sure they had evetything while Rin borrowed Fleurs mobile and dialed Yuki's number. The phone rang once before he answered.

"Okumura speaking." He said a little to quickly.

"It's me. Why the formal? You know who's calling." Rin said teasingly. He could practically see his twins grimace on the other end.

"It's protocol, why is the number witheld anyway?" He said irritably.

"It's protocol. You know roughly what's going on, I'm pretty much on the run. It's a kinda exciting. One of the girls I'm with used a spell to grow back my hair! Today we're going-"

"Don't say to much! You don't know who could be listening in even if the numbers are witheld. How many times...sorry, nagging again I know." The line went silent for a while. "I know where you are, I spoke to the chairman and he figured it out. He knows the school, best way I can put it is pig-skin infection and the street that sounds like a direction." Rin thought about it for a minute and his eyes widened.

"Don't even think about coming here! They might try to capture yo-"

"Don't worry, I already researched it but I can't find any infomation. The chairman said he will send some under cover back up incase things get nasty."

"But how the hell am I supposed to know who it is an how are they supposed to contact me? they don't know where we're going!" Rin ground his teeth in annoyance.

"He said he's sending two teachers but wouldn't say who, I think one of them will be Shura but I don't know who else. You can worry about that later, I have something of a surprise." The younger chuckled and their was a beep and an all to familiar voice screamed down the other phone.

"You idiot! I'm gunna kill you if you don't die out there when you get back! WHY DID YOU JUST GO AHEAD AN LOOSE KURIKARA!" Rin felt guilty for moment but it was over shadowed by joy.

"Like I'd just GIVE my heart away to someone! You jealous? " He taunted, the smile in his voice easily noticable.

"Why I aughta'!"

"Pipe down Bon! You're giving me a headache! Hay Rin, how's it going?" That was Shima.

"Rin how are you? Are they being nice to you there?" Shiemi's worried stammer came from further away.

"Hay guys, I'm fi-"

"Rin where are you? I swear I''m gunna kill anyone who laid a finger on you!" Izumo demanded and he blushed a little, smiling to himself at her over protectiveness, he swore she was almost as bad as Yukio.

"I'm fine, I'll be back soon, I'm going to get kurikara today an then I'll come home," It wasn't entirely true, he wanted to stay with the others and exact a little revenge on his captors but that was up to them, if they dissapeared he'd have no choice.

"We hope so. Take care of yourself alright?" Koneko added worriedly.

"I will." The background noise was muted with another beep and Yukio came back on.

"Don't die, I never got to apologise properly for loosing that key, if it wheren't for me this wouldn't have happe-"

"Shut up Yuki, it's not your fault. Idiot, blaming yourself for everything as usual. I'll call when I get kurikara back, I'm sure someone will let me use their phone." Yukio sighed.

"Alright, be careful. Good luck."

"Stupid four eyes! Bye!" he hung up without another word and went upstairs to meet the others feeling readier than ever, his hand brushing against the knife that that witch had thrown which was currently strapped to his side concealed under thd tee he wore. When he reached the attic door he immediately grabbed the hilt of the dagger and allowed his flames to dance accross his skin, growling menecingly. Their stood Ron in his fake mustache and beard, Harry stood next to Griphook and in front of them stood Bellatrix with a bemused expression. He was about to launch himself at her when she raised her arms frantically.

"Rin calm down! It's me!" It was Hermione's voice that came out of the witches mouth an Rin immediately flushed, dropping his offencive stance and kicking himself mentally.

"Sorry...didn't expect it to be so...realistic...the clothes an everything..." he muttered feeling like the biggest idiot on the planet right now. 'Bellatrix' chuckled in a girlish way which put any last doubts to rest in the bluenettes mind. Ron snickered.

"That was actully kinda scary for such a short arse!" He chuckled but a leer from Hermione silenced him.

They tiptoed out, avoiding being seen by any of the other inhabitants and out onto the beach. They reached a high, well out of sight dune and stood in a circle.

"You can give that to Hermione to hold." Harry said to the goblin who handed over the real witches wand. Harry knealt down and allowed Griphook to climb on his back and cover them in a velvety cloak which made them both dissapear entirely in front of their eyes. Harry spoke from underneith the cloak. "We're relying on you Griphook, Ron. If you get us past the guards into the vault an the sword is yours. Rin, as soon as we get their-"

"Get to the roof and sneak into one of the upper windows of the bank. Got it." He said confidently. Hermione passed him the gas mask he was going to be wearing and he put it on. They had found it in the attic and decided he should wear it. Once he had strapped it on Hermione pointed her own wand at the straps on the back, sealing them so it couldn't be taken off unless she undid the spell.

As planned. Rin linked Hermione who held Rons hand and Harry his. A horrible feeling overwhelmed him and the salty air and sand beneith his feet vanished in a flurry of colour and sound.


Yay, so they're finally on their way to diagon alley but will the plan go smoothely? Dun dun duuuuuuun!

REVIEWS

Blackchaosaria2501

Thank youuuu =) I'm glad you're enjoying it ^^ I know, the deatheaters are totally evil, atleast Hermione grew it back ^^ their will be a bkt of a clash with Rin and Ron (so confusing XD) because Hermiones got a soft spot for Rin an Ron getting jealous lmao! Yay flr fluff! Their isnt enough fluff to go around so I put a little more in here XD couldnt help it! I'll try an put in some more Rin/Yuki fluff a little later on in the fic. Maybe at the end as an extra or something.

Darkryubabby

Yeah i'm sorry about that, I thought it would have been kinda obv (sorry, no offence meant.) Since Rin is discribed as short in the manga/anime an to top it off he's asian (its not offencive, its common knowledge) The HP gang are gunna tower over him and to top it off he acts really immature where as Harry an the rdst are pretty mature so I thought they would asume he was about 12. Also throughout the deathly hallows, they never once mentioned what they where doing to anyone, not even the people who sort of helped find them so Rin wouldn't be much of an acception but I thought I'd add it in anyway ^^ lmao, yeah, the HP gang are going to be really untrusting at that time especially when Dobby discribed him as being 'dark'. Hope that helps it make more sense. ^^

Blackwitchescat

I know but since he's wearing sweats and this is well after the anime he wocould just as easily wrap it around his leg under his pants. I dunno, I've just always had it that way when the fic is after the manga/anime. Anything thats still a mistake has been looked over by my Beta in the last chapter. I am dyslexic an I never pay that much attention to grammar, if you do it generally takes away from the enjoyment of just reading the fic. As long as you can read it and know what it means then I'm satisfied with that ^^ lmao, I think I mentioned in the last chapter hat I couldn't handle Dobby dieing again, its to sad! An yeah I totally agree, typical Rin thing to do ^^. Their will certainly be more of rins heretics ^^

Kazaru13

thank you! Sorry it took so long!

A Stranger 0.0

Thanks =)I was gunna introduce it earlier but it would have been far to long and taken far to much time to write. No worries, I'm writing on a 7inch tablet so mistakes are bound to be there ^^. I know, like I said I am dyslexic so expecting Stephen King or Ann Rice would be a little unfair but as long as you undrstand whats going on I'm happy wih that ^^ an yeah, I think everyone is ^^ I'd say the other was much better causd not only are the chapters really long and with much less spelling mistakes, its more original, mine is mostly cannon to one of the titals an requires a lot less imagination. Sorry it took so long, next chapter will have a lot more action which aparrently is my specialty XD hope this chappy wasn't to much of a let down.

Ottiekoda

Thank you =) yeah its kinda the main theme of the fic so look out (ooooh! XD) hope this chapter wasn't to much of a dissapointment but it will ne much better next chappy =)

OceanSprings

Thank you =)

Bethanytokitoki

Hehe, I was thinking of leaving him bauld but no XD their was a bit in either the second or thrid book where George an Fred where making fur grow all over them to try an cheer up Ginny for something or other an I was like 'yeah that works' ^^ hope you're still enjoying an I'll update soon =)

Well that's it for this chapter ^^ Here's a tiny little preview of the next chapter =D (this isn't proof read so ita not perfect nor the final product, justoff the top of my head sort of thing. ^^)

Rin broke from the group and down a tiny side alley located between a closed down shop and a collection of bins. Once satisfied that nobody was looking he lengthened his nails and began the clinbing the wall. His nails easily held his weight and slid into the brick and within 20 seconds he was standing on top of the row of closely positioned roofs. He took a few steps towards the huge building that seemed central to the district, keeping crouched low so the street walkers couldn't see him. As he got closer he was suddenly aware of how cold it was. An icy feeling crept over his skin and raised goosebumps down his skin. He sensed something dark nearby, something evil that he couldn't identify. He chanced a look over the edge of one of the rooftops and saw 'bellatrix' an Ron in disguise entering the huge sandstone building. The cold became unbearable and he had to stop for a second to try and rub some warmth into his stiff wrists. He looked up to see if the sun was still shining as it had been and came face to face with a black hooded figure floating in midair.

"Woah!" He stumbled back and almost fell off the edge of the roof and grabbed the dagger out of its make shuft holister. The black figure was something you would only see in nightmares, filthy rugged robes covering its face and body and gnarled, skeletal hands twisted into claws at its side. It hovered their for a few seconds doing nothing before the cold got worse. Five, ten, fifteen more seemed to materialise out of nothing and simply hovered around, waiting for him to make a move.

He certainly hadn't anticipated this.
