Hey all *Does the happy dance* I got my Internet back. Well thank you for the long wait and here's the next chapter.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the idea.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

It had been a week since Inuyasha had been brought back from hell. Kagura and Kanna had stayed to keep an eye on Inuyasha and sometimes Kagura would turn into a wolf and see if she could find any information, None so far. Sesshomaru had disappeared for a day only to return with a small cat for Kagome. When Kagome held it she almost broke down when she relished the cat was Kirara. She thanked Sesshomaru again and again.

 

Harry and Draco always were always with Kagome but never at the same time unless in her room. They along with Rin confronted Inuyasha and told him to leave Kagome alone. Inuyasha didn't listen until Rin shocked Inuyasha with a bit of miko power. Only then did he take their warnings serious but he still watched her from afar.

 

Kagome smiled as she felt Harry and Draco lay next to her. She knew that she should tell them how she felt but every time she tried flash backs of what happened between her and Inuyasha stopped her. She knew they heard her when she spoke to Inuyasha in hell but she still couldn't tell them. As she turned to face Harry she decided that at the Halloween dance tomorrow night she would tell them. She started to get up when the boys pulled her back down.

 

“Guys I need to practice or I'll get out of shape.” Kagome said but they held her down.

 

“You can take one day off…”

 

“I've haven't practiced since school started.” The boys laughed and just held her.

 

“Can you teach us?” asked Draco.

 

“What?” Kagome turned onto her back and looked at Draco.

 

“Harry and I have talked about it and we want you to teach us to fight. If were not just dealing with wizards but also demons we want to help you.” Kagome looked at Harry who nodded. Kagome smiled and sighed.

 

“Well the first thing I did was see how long I could last in a battle. Even with a year of traveling, I only lasted thirty minutes. Than, after I could last an hour, I started fighting with swords and started lifting Sango's Hiraikotus. Also I trained to control my miko powers. So first we'll see how long you can last.”

 

The boys smiled and got up with Kagome. They lead her to the Room of Requirement. Kagome paced three times and the door appeared. With a smile Kagome opened the door and the boys gasped as they saw the room. Along the walls were several different types of swords and all different lengths and weights. There were also daggers, throwing stars, and staffs.

 

“Okay first we'll see how long you can fight with just your hands.” The boys played rock, paper, scissors to see who would go first. Harry lost. Both stood in the middle of the room in a fighting stance. Kagome smiled as the two ran at each other. After forty-five minutes Kagome called their fight to a stop. She smiled as Harry sat down and Draco took his place. Draco lasted an hour and ten minutes when the door opened and Sesshomaru, Kagura, Ron, and Hermione walked in.

 

“Well this is a surprise, you usually don't take apprentices Kags.” Sesshomaru said looking at the two boys.

 

“Ya well, I had to beg for you to train me. They just asked if they could help.” Kagome smiled. “Well we should find a sword for…”

 

“How about we give them a show later. You verses me, show Inuyasha what he did wrong.” Kagome laughed.

 

“What brought this on?” Kagome asked.

 

“Dumbledore asked if we could tech the students about demons.” Kagome smiled and nodded. It would be fun to show Inuyasha up.

 

`Kagome are you sure that's a good idea. That mutts been trying to get near you all week.' Harry said.

 

`I don't like the looks he's been giving you.' Draco stated.

 

`Guys I know how to handle Inuyasha. If he tries anything I'll just say the `s' word.'

 

`Okay but I still don't like it.' Kagome laughed at Draco as Harry shook his head.

 

They spent the next three hours, Kagome along with Sesshomaru, helping Harry find the perfect sword, and started a good training program for them. Soon it was time for lunch. The group went to the Great Hall and entered together and shocked the hall. No one would expect to see Harry and Draco within five feet of each other and talking like old friends. The whole group, with the exception of Sesshomaru who went to sit with Rin, sat at the Gryffindors table. Most of the Gryffindors were surprised when Draco also sat down.

 

“Don't you have your own table to sit at Malfoy?” Asked Dean.

 

“Ya, Slytherins don't belong here.” Said Lavender. Kagome smiled at the group.

 

“Well I guess we'll be leaving.” Kagome went to stand when Hermione stopped her.

 

“You were a Slytherin?!” Kagome smiled again.

 

“Yep. Been a Slytherin since I first put the hat on and would probably still be a Slytherin.” The table broke out in whispers. “ Guys the Slytherins aren't bad, it the way they use their powers. Trust me I've met people who were two faced and even played me. Some people just hid their pain or problems better. I hid behind a mask for a year and I still have problems dropping it. Slytherins have a name to live up to plus most of the Slytherins parents are probably Death Eaters. They have to live up to what their parents created. I know.” Kagome looked toward Sota, who was talking to another first year.

 

“Wait your brother is in Gryffindor but you were in Slytherin, how did that happen?” asked Ginny joining the conversation. Still looking at her brother Kagome answered.

 

“I didn't want him to follow in my footsteps or make the same mistakes I did.” Kagome thought about their father and was glad the man was dead. The table left Draco alone after he apologized for what he did and lunch went by fast. Soon Sesshomaru approached them.

 

“Ready?” he asked raising an eyebrow.

 

“Hand to Hand, Swords, or all out?” Kagome looked at him.

 

“All out.” Kagome grinned and nodded. Since most of the 6th year Gryffindor and Slytherins didn't have classes, Dumbledore held them as well as the DADA class and all 7th years after lunch. Kagura and Kanna stood near Rin against a wall and watched incase anything got out of hand.

 

“Today two among us have decided to show you what your up against. They will teach you a bit about them then start.” Kagome smiled as Sesshomaru and her walked forward.

 

“Okay, many of you know, by now, that demons will most likely join in your war so I'm here with one of my many demon friends, probably the most dangerous, *Rin giggled at this* to show you a few things. First of all is that each demon has a different power. Example, Kagura uses wind while Sess uses acid, don't worry they don't kill humans. Second a demons senses are enhanced so they will hear of smell you before you get near them. They're also faster and stronger. A battle between say Sess and his brother Inuyasha it might last about twenty to thirty minutes.”

 

“Why is that?” asked Pansy who moved to stand near Draco.

 

“Because something always came up when they fought and they don't have it in their heart to kill each other.”

 

“Ya right, I'd kill that bastard right now but you wont give me my Tetsusaiga.” Inuyasha said from his place leaning against a wall next to the standing students.

 

“Behave or I'll say the `s' word mutt.” Kagome said, glaring at the hanyou. Inuyasha feh'ed and looked away. “Now if the fight was against me and Sess it might be about an hour or two. Sesshomaru and myself are going to fight today and were going all out which means anything and any weapon.” Inuyasha's head snapped toward them as they got into position. The students sat against the wall and a barrier was placed up as a perception.

 

The fight started out hand to hand. Blows were exchanged and everyone could tell Kagome wasn't kidding when she said a demon could take more. Soon Sesshomaru used his poison whip and Kagome was forced to dodge it as well as his blows. The whip hit one of Kagome arms and sliced through her shirt. Inuyasha was impressed by how long Kagome was holding up. Kagome pulled out a sword and charged at Sesshomaru only to have him block her. The fight continued this was for a while until Kagome pinned Sesshomaru under her sword, which was now pink with miko powers. Both were breathing hard and Rin checked to make sure there was no lasting damage. The fight had lasted an hour and fifteen minutes. Inuyasha was impressed, he never could beat Sesshomaru in any of the fights they had.

 

Kagome explained a bit more about demons, what most looked like and how to destroy them. When the bell rang the students headed to their next hour and another DADA class was brought down. They did the same thing but the fights were shorter. Soon it was time for dinner and Kagome sat with the Gryffindors again along with Draco. Many asked how she was after all that fighting. Kagome smiled and said she was fine and did this all the time.

 

“May I ask something that's been brothering me?” asked Hermione. Kagome nodded. “How did you kill that demon on the train?”

 

“I cut off its head.”

 

“Doesn't the thought that you're killing a living creature brother.” Asked Seamus.

 

“No not really,” Many gasped and whispered. “The thing is most demons try and kill me first because I'm strong and used to posses something powerful. That and the fact I'm the only real miko left, most were either killed at a young age or didn't have strong enough powers to make a difference.” Kagome looked at the Gryffindors in front of her but noticed their eyes were wide.

 

“What?” Ginny and Hermione pointed to something behind her and Kagome turned around. She wasn't expecting to see Godric Gryffindor floating behind her nor did see expect to see Helga Hufflepuff show up next.

 

“Kagome this is a surprise, we haven't seen you in so long.” Said Helga as she gave the miko a hug.

 

“I know it's been a while for all of us. Do you know where Sal is?” She asked, turning to face the founders fully. Most conversation had stopped in the hall to watch the three talk.

 

“No I haven't seen him in almost two hundred years. What about you Godric?”

 

“Same.” Kagome cursed under her breath.

 

“Do you guys know where he hid the jewel by any chance?” Both founders shook their heads. “Any clues as to where I could find him” Again the answer was no.

 

“He said that you would know when the time was right. Now when were you going to come visit us?” Helga said, putting her hands on her hips.

 

“Don't know. Thought you were hiding since no ones seen you four in almost two hundred years.” Kagome smiled, Godric laughed and Helga huffed. “Oh that reminds me when you get the chance tell Ro I said hi. She should know where my room is, I liked to talk some more and you guys since I guess you going to be around more often.” The group laughed.

 

Kagome was walking down a long hallway. On each wall were pictures of the four animals of the houses. As the hall opened up into a huge room there were four large creatures in front of her, a griffin, a badger, a raven, and a snake. Each animal opened its mouth and colored sand fell out. Soon the animals closed their mouths and looked at Kagome. They point to the sand and two words rang out through the hall “Start looking”

 

Kagome sat up in her bed waking both boys who held her tight. They turned on a light and noticed Kagome was sweating. They asked what was wrong. She told them about her dream and knew she had to start looking for the jewel. They agreed to help in any way possible. Kagome was so happy she kissed both boys. Soon they were sucking and nibbling at her neck. Kagome reminded them what time it was and that they had classes later that morning. Both sighed and after a round, or three, of tong ties they settled back down for bed.

 

Far below Hogwarts a ghost smiled as he watched the trio and nodded. Yes they would be good and help her along the way to finding the jewel.
