From demons to dementors

“I died” she said, taking another sip of tea and closely watching the reaction of every one, over the rim of her glass. They were all quiet, then, Sirius started to laugh hysterically

“BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA!” he bellowed

“you had us all going there for a second, girl, but as soon as you said THAT, you gave your self away. This is just one big joke!” he continued to laugh and slap his knee every couple of seconds. Every one other than the hysterical Sirius, watched kagome to see her reaction to the accusation. Kagome kept her face blank and coldly watched Sirius pull him self together

“this is not the time nor place for that kind of nonsense, girl, it's impossible to die and then come back” he said, suddenly serious

“you may be able to do some fancy stuff with those swords and you may be able to some how trick us into believing you can swallow poison but so can circus freaks, the only difference is that they can get away with it… and you cant'” Sirius glared at kagome and her emotionless face

“I am not a cold and cruel man, you may stay the night, but you WILL be on the next flight back to Japan in the morning!” Sirius slammed his fist on the table and smirked at kagome, daring her to say other wise.

“It's time you went home little girl, and let the men deal with Voldemort, oh, and don't worry about souta, we'll look after him just like we have for the past five years” he sneered now every one, including Sirius, was quiet, no one dared speak. Kagome, still blank faced, looked at every single person in the room, eye to eye, then turning to look at Sirius she spoke, and in the most icy voice she could manage, she told him

“mr.Black I am glad to see that you know how to use your lungs but I was wondering, if you have all this under control like the big men that you are, then why, mr.Black, is their a human with the stench of tainted power in you front lawn?” she asked calmly, fingering her swords and fighting the urge to rip out his throat.

“what!” cried mr. weasley in a panic. Lupin and Sirius exchanged looks then got up to go investigate

“should I come too?” moody asked

“no, you and tonks should stay here to keep and eye on things” Sirius said and nodded his head in kagome's direction.

“how very subtle of you mr.black, but no time for chit chat, you best go out side to see what's that matter” kagome said in a falsely pleasant voice

“now don't you worry, Mr.black, I'll let the MEN got check out the danger while us women, mind the home and watch the children” she smirked as tonk's eyes flashed with some unknown emotion

“besides, I don't bite….much” she laughed and propped her feet up on the table in a relaxed position

“BAH females!” he spat and raced out side to catch up with lupin and mr.weasley. As the front door slammed close, it all went quiet.

“One for sorrow, two for mirth, three for marriage, four for birth, five for laughing, six for crying, seven for sickness, eight for dying, nine for silver, ten for gold, eleven a secret that will never be told…” kagome slowly counted the seconds with a little rhyme that Rin taught her.

“how…how did you know that some one was out there?” harry asked her

“that's if it's even true” Hermione grumbled but was ignored. Harry continued to look at kagome. She stopped her tune and looked over at harry, meting him eye to eye. Harry tried to find answers in kagome's cold eyes where as kagome on the other hand, tried to find what made this boy special. He looked confused and lost, kind of like how kagome was when… when it happened. Then she looked up, up to his forehead. Harry, seeing this, lowered his eyes

“darkness gathers in the strangest of places” she said quietly. Harry looked up and met her gaze. Closing her eyes she brushed her bangs out of the way and touched her own forehead. For a second harry thought he saw a darkened, almost black crescent moon but when he blinked it was gone and kagome was back to humming.

“so … are you going to tell us or not?” ron asked. Kagome didn't even spare him a glance as she simply said

“no” and went back to her poem. Hermione started to argue with kagome but was cut off when the front door slammed open, making every one, except kagome, jump. Lupin, mr.weasley and Sirius came back in and sat down, pissed off and sopping wet. harry looked to lupin for answers

“he got away, we weren't quick enough” Sirius grumbled

“but there was some one there” lupin added, looking at kagome who was busy, fiddling with her bangs so they hid her forehead

“you were right, how did you know?” mr.weasley asked astonished. Kagome smirked

“I'm just a silly little girl who knows nothing about anything, I just happen to know some fancy tricks with my swords and trick people into believing I can drink poison, but, that's just circus tricks” she smirked again and twiddled her thumbs

“besides, you have every thing under control” she smiled sweetly just as a flash of lightning lit up the room

“creepy” ron whispered to harry and souta, who both nodded in return

“arggg what makes you so different form us? Why do you think you are so high and mighty, do you think you can do a better job then us?” Sirius asked frustrated

“this is wizards work, wizards deal with other wizards, what the hell are you any way?” he glared at her

“the difference between us, mr.black, is that I, for one, am not dripping water onto such a lovely carpet” she looked sadly at the now muddy floor

“ARGGG!” Sirius stood up furiously

“you are no help at all, you are not serious about the fact that many innocent people are dieing because of Voldermort and his henchmen! And that he also wants harry and possibly souta, dead! All you do is smirk and think your better than us!” he was yelling now and his face was beet red

“oh mr.black, you face looks flushed, I think you may have a fever. You shouldn't play out side in the rain, you'll catch your death…and we wouldn't want that now would we?” she said in a sugar coated voice but her eyes were fierce and cold at the mention of souta's demise. Sirius threw his hands up in the air and stormed out of the room and into the hallway. But in his abrupt departure he knocked over one of the magic candles that lit up the hall.

“SHIT!” he cursed and went to pick up the fallen candle but the wax had already spilled and was already re-lighting it's self, for these candles were “waxies element proof candles” they were water proof, wind proof and unfortunately for Sirius, magic proof. The wax relights on contact with something flammable. Sirius's eyes widened, the wax had landed on the curtains that covered the portrait of the late mrs.black, and that was certainly flammable. Noticing this, he whipped out his wand and called for help. Lupin and harry were the first to arrive

“great Merlin's beard!” lupin starred, wide eyed, as the curtains were slowly engulfed in flames. By now every one else had arrived, excluding kagome who could care less what happened to mr.black. they all had time to watch as harry, plugged is ears, they weren't quick enough to save their own

“AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” mrs.black was awake and well aware of her predicament so she did they only thing she could do and that was to screech, long and loud. Sirius and lupin started to fire off spells, any thing they could think of, hoping it would do something, any thing, even though they knew it was magic proof. Kagome, confused about the screeching, arrived behind every one and was now shoving people out of the way so she could get to the heart of the action.

“WHAT IN SEVEN HELLS IS GOING ON?” kagome yelled over the screeching of mrs.black. no one heard her, they all had their ears plugged and were concentrating on stopping the fire. Kagome watched for a few seconds, assessing the situation, then reaching in to her robe, she pulled out a black fan with red cherry blossoms decorating the edges. She pushed Sirius out of the way and into lupin, stopping the on slot of spells. Kagome flicked her wrist and opened the fan with a loud crack. Then with one wave, a strong wind picked up out of nowhere and, unlike the wizards attempts, blew out the flames in a second, leaving only slightly smoking and certainly destroyed curtains in its wake. Fortunately or Unfortunately, depending on how you look at it mrs. Black was unharmed and had stopped screeching, now she was yelling at every thing and every one, especially Sirius. With a curse, Sirius ripped off the smoldering remains of the curtains and confronted his mother's portrait.

AN- for all of you who are wondering about Sirius's behavior….i'll give you a hint…just think back to the beginning of this fanfic…
