InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Cross Magic ❯ The Meeting ( Chapter 3 )
[ P - Pre-Teen ]
Disclaimer: I'm not at all rich, there for I'm not Rumiko Takahashi, who owns Inuyasha, and I am definitely NOT the fabulously talented JK Rowling who owns Harry Potter.
Also, in this chapter, Kagome and Inuyasha will be going between English and Japanese, depending on the POV.
Kagome was fuming all the way through the flight, and all the way to the hotel where they were staying and through her bath, while Inuyasha slept on. He finally woke the next morning, groggy and extremely angry with Kagome about what she did. She was none too sympathetic, so breakfast was a silent affair as they tried out the “Continental Breakfast.” As per usual, Inuyasha stuffed his face, then ordered for some Ramen, which Kagome hadn't brought. She really didn't want to take Inuyasha around London, especially since he couldn't speak the language, but upon the realization that he had only one set of clothes with him, consented to take him shopping.
At first, it wasn't as bad as she expected, once she got some Ramen in him. He was content to just walk with her, until they pulled up to a men's clothing store...
“No way! The people here smell funny anyway, I'm already wearing this stuff, I ain't giving you nothing else!”
“Come on… please?” Kagome begged gently, looking her cutest at him.
“Not gonna happen.”
“Come on Inuyasha! It's how we do things in my era!” She said, grabbing his arm and tugging desperately as she attempted to drag him into the store. Suddenly, Kagome felt the familiar tingle of a jewel fragment, and it was slowly approaching. Great, just when I thought I'd get a break…
Kagome let go of Inuyasha so quickly to try and pinpoint the source of the jewel, he went tumbling into the store, crashing into a rack of cloths….
Kagome sweat-dropped with embarrassment as she slowly turned around and watched as Inuyasha sat up from the heap of clothes. looking rather irritated…

Harry and Remus, out for a stroll, paused when they noticed a great number of people gathered around a clothing store, staring, and felt compelled to cross the street when they heard a peeved, “Nani ga sore, bakayaro!”
They arrived to see a rather strange looking Asian man pulling off some trousers from… silver dog-like ears. A smaller, normal looking Asian girl, bright red with embarrassment, was standing a few feet away. She was speaking in what Harry assumed was the same language.
“Ah, gomen, demo... Shikon no Tama kanjirimashita...” She dragged him to his feet, obviously trying to cover up the man's ears and failing… miserably. Harry watched in surprise as the man's ears twitched and moved, just like a dog's…
Must be a charm-tester. Harry thought, picturing the charm tester who had horns at the Quidditch World Cup. He spotted a baseball cap nearby and casually maneuvered over to it. A muffled incantation told him Remus had taken care of the crowd.
Harry gently laid the cap back on the man's head, whispering, “My friend's taking care of the Muggles.” He explained in a whisper, figuring one of them had to speak in English.
“What is `Muggle'?” The woman inquired, keeping her voice low too. Harry looked at her, a tad surprised, but reminded himself that they were foreign.
“Non magic folk.”
“…” The woman suddenly took on the most peculiar look, then turned to the man.
“Ano hito atama ga hen.”
“Hanen okeru.” Suddenly she turned to look at Harry, a little… intensely, and it could've been his imagination, but he swore he saw her eyes widening.
“Inuyasha! Kono hito ga Shikon no Tama wo fukumu.” She hissed, though she could've shouted it for all Harry could understand
“NANI?! Koitsu? Doushide iishiburu?” The man's tone took on a most definite harsh quality. The man jumped up and turned to glare at Harry, compelling him to take a step back.
“Is there a problem?”
“Shikon no Tama agero!” The man was snarling now, and reaching for Harry.
“Osuwari!” The girl snarled. To the shock of everyone, he went slamming face-first into the ground in front of Harry, sending glass shaking. There was a pause as everyone stared in silence, except for the man's growling.
“Kagome…” The girl stood there beet-red, not daring to look at the crowd.
“Eeeeh.” There was another whispered incantation, every Muggle got a rather glassy look.
“Perhaps we should discuss things someplace more private?” suggested Lupin, eyeing the crowd.
“Good idea.” Mumbled Harry, and to his surprise, the girl nodded.
“A very good idea.”

An hour later, they were sitting in the Leaky Cauldron, Kagome having just explained, to the best of her ability, the whole story behind themselves.
“So… you're some sort of reincarnated priestess who was dragged down a well on her fifteenth birthday, met this half-demon-”
“His name is Inuyasha.” She stated, while said demon was growling.
“Right. He was pinned to a tree and wanted to kill the woman who was you were reincarnated from, because she's the one who pinned him to the tree when he stole this crystal. Then it got broken and you've been searching for the fragments ever since, and have made three friends along the way as well as an enemy?”
“Many several enemies, but yes.” There was a pause from Harry.
“You seriously expect us to believe that story?” Kagome glared huffily at him, stating,
“Why would he have dog ears if you are say your magic can hide of them? Or that he have a very strong nose- Inuyasha nanio?”
“Okami wo handuzuku!” Inuyasha snapped.
“Inuyasha…”
“What's-“
“He is saying he is smelling a ... um,” she pulled an electric dictionary out of her pocket and hit a few buttons before finishing her sentence “... a wolf.” She rolled her eyes and shot the demon a withering look. “He is a demon that is a dog, and there is a demon that is a wolf who is like to come around and- Yamete kure!” She snapped as Inuyasha popped up, looking most suspicious, behind Lupin sniffing very intently. Lupin whirled around, looking alarmed before Inuyasha grabbed him by the collar, and began yelling in that indecipherable language of theirs, while Harry and Kagome sweat-dropped.
“Excuse me! What are-“ But Lupin was cut off with a furious snarl.
“Dochirasama?! Ano buokoto no buzoku-“
“Inuyasha! Osuwari!”
BOOM! Inuyasha once more hit the earth, this time taking Lupin with him.
“Aatatata...” Murmured Kagome, looking embarrassed and tired.
A note from FB:

“Ano hito atama ga hen.”-He's crazy.

“Inuyasha! Kono hito ga Shikon no Tama wo fukumu.”-Inuyasha! He has a fragment of the jewel in his forhead.
