Fred’s jaw hit the table, as did many others, when Kagome walked in late. She wore some kind of dress thing that showed off all her feminine curves. She winked at him as she bowed.
“Konnichiwa minna-sans! My name is Higurashi, Kagome. It's a pleasure to be staying in your lovely abode. I'm ever so sorry for my attitude earlier, I was in a bad mood because I had to leave my big brother." she scowled at the thought and would have continued to if the fox kit hadn't yipped. Then the aloof and annoyed expression melted into one of motherly love. A gently smile played on her lips as she scooped up the fox. George glanced over at Fred to see him staring at Kagome like she was some kind of dessert and he hadn't eaten in a while.
"So uh Kagome what is with the fox?" she turned her soul piercing blue eyes on Harry and smirked.
"His name is Shippo and he happens to be a very vicious and very protective, though why he seems to be taken with Fred over there I have no clue. May I ask where I am to sit?" she glanced curiously at Fred, who just kind of shrugged in response to her question.
"Oh sorry dear your outfit caught me a little of guard since you already seem to know Fred why don't you sit between him and George?" she nodded and with a grace that made the other females envious glided to the seat between the two. The fox kit in her arms made a small yip noise which made her in return nod. The kit jumped from her arms and headed to the front door. She merely arched a brow at their questioning looks. She quietly took a bite of the pasta as Professor Dumbledore walked in following the kit. He stopped when he saw them and the kit took off in one smooth motion landing in Kagome's lap.
"Hm well that was interesting. Molly whatever happened to Mrs. Black in the hallway? I don't believe I heard her when I walked in." a small smirk crossed Kagome's face before it was hid behind a mask of indifference. Fred looked over at her curiously, he didn't know what happened to her either.
"That was Kagome the dear. She removed the spell holding her to the wall and moved her upstairs into her own room. Though why she hasn't started screaming yet I'm not so sure. Kagome dear do you know?" Kagome had to resist rolling her eyes. Of course she knew for heavens sake it was a family spell. So faking a very sincere and polite looking smile she tried not to retort.
"Of course ma'am. She knows how much trouble it is to run up a flight of stairs in a kimono. After all she was the matriarch of the family once. So I take it you're Professor Dumbledore huh?" she looked him over with a critical eye. With practiced ease she searched his aura and compared his power level with hers. This was who her ankii thought she'd be safe with? She'd be better off with him after all whatever had gone after her family sure as hell wasn't a normal nigen. He nodded at her and she dropped the nice and happy act she assumed earlier when her mischevious streak had kicked in.
"Hello Miss Black..." she cut him off her face colder then any thing he'd ever seen.
"It's either Higurashi or if you want my full royal title Princess Kagome Moriko Higurashi Taisho of the Western Japanese Lands. I have never been called Miss Black and I refuse to start. I'll not disgrace my mother by taking a name that isn't my husbands." Sirus, who decidedly didn't like his niece, hit a weak point in her logic.
"What about Taisho? I doubt that's your husband." Her midnight blues eyes landed on him send chills through his body even though he tried to hid it.
"That would be my ankii or older brother. Adopted by youkai customs allowing me to be his heir and imouto. My Okaa-san knew about that and allowed me to legally change it. So your barb uncle is useless." she glared at her uncle the tension so thick you could cut it with a spoon and eat it.
"Anyways Miss Higurashi you do understand you are really to old to attend Hogwarts. However instead of turning you away what if you stayed on as a teacher?" she tilted her head, allowing her curious nature to color her question.
"What would I be teaching?" she focused her now gentle midnight blue eyes on him, not even noticing when Fred allowed his hand to rest lightly on her knee. George and Sirus however did and gaped at Fred. She'd visibly calmed when he'd touched her and she didn't look like she even noticed. They however were proven wrong when she placed her hand over his, curling around it. Fred looked up at her surprised while she continued to look at the professor.
"You'd be teaching the defense against the dark arts class or you could teach a wandless magic course." she looked at him like he was nuts before a wicked grin took over.
"You can't teach my miko magic unless the person is already a miko but training a bunch of kids how to defend themselves, that I can do. I've done it before I can do it again. As long as my little Shippo can come with me and I get to see my ankii I'll be delighted. It might be fun after all to see those stuck up magic brats eat dirt." her eyes sparkled with mischief and the smile on her lips meant warning to anyone who knew her. And unfortunately for them no one did.
