Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ The Best Defense ❯ Chapter 2 ( Chapter 3 )

Hi! I'm Yo-ma and I'm here to tell you some information before you read my story.

This is my story, and it is YAOI (meaning male/male relationships for those unused to the anime world.) If you don't like it, don't read it! Got that?

I DO NOT OWN YU YU HAKUSHO OR HARRY POTTER!!!! So don't sue me, I don't have any money.

Thoughts are in Italics. ***** means a change in scene.

Please Read and Review! I would love to hear anything you have to say! Flames are even accepted!

I'm so sorry for the long wait! I had so much school work to do that I barely got a chance to work on this. The action won't be starting for another chapter or so, so please don't stop reading if you think this part is boring.

Here it is! The section where I answer your reviews. If you didn't submit one, please skip this and read the chapter!

To Maximum Poofy-Pissed Off Queen: Thanks for telling me about the spelling error. I didn't notice it! Keep reviewing please!

To Melissa: Thanks for giving me a chance. But I might have to make it a little more known when they start to fight the demons, since Kurama has an old acquaintance with one of them. I hope you'll still read it though.

To Ruby*Raven, Amethyst Bubble, blank, darkness flame youkai, Chronicles Bailey, Lcampbell947, Wildfire's Flame, tomboy101, Chris, Ayako, the_cuteness: Thanks for reviewing! All of your reviews are encouraging me to write on! Keep at it!

To ShiTiger: Yes, there are pairings in the Hogwarts group. I'm going to have Draco/Harry and maybe even Ron/Hermonie. Please keep reviewing I love to hear from you.

To Uriko: To tell you the truth, I though the same thing when I first saw the Jin/Touya pairing, but it grows on you. Especially when I read Hide and Go Seek and Suzuki's Soufflé on Fanfiction.Net. You should look for it. But, I am going to keep the pairing of Jin/Touya, so Sorry!

To Washu-chan, Seiyuri-chan, and Uriko-chan: Sorry for not getting a lot of Hiei/Kurama into this chapter, but I promise there will be more in later chapters, especially when Arcana comes. There will be Draco/Harry in this story Uriko-chan! You'll get a hint of it in this chapter. You three can be in the story, as students from another school. I can't make you be demons if you wanted to though, unless you want to be evil. Anyway, e-mail me what you want to look like, your names (including last), and other information you would like for me to know. My e-mail is japbookfan101@hotmail.com. I can't wait to hear from you!

To Zaeria: Hiei's transformation I took from another story called Reunion. I liked it so much I put it in this story. Basically, he has two different forms, his shorter one that is for his true demon form, which is only shown once in the series. The other is what would be his natural height, but Hiei found it to be weaker than his shorter form until he mastered the black dragon, which is stronger in his taller form. And yes, around chapter 7 (I have them all planned out) Hiei will try to incinerate some students for hitting on Kurama. Luckily, Kurama will stop him, unless some readers want the Black Dragon to be unleashed.

To zhonggue: Thanks for the review. No, Draco doesn't like Kurama, even though I like the idea of that, it's not going to be in this story. I'm going to have him and Harry like each other instead.

Now on with the story!

Harry Potter and The Best Defense

Chapter 2

Kurama lazily sat up in his bed and got dressed. It was to be their first day in this school. It would test them to see if they had studied enough and he was ready to pass.

He walked into the common room, to find the others waiting for him. Well not really, they seemed to be looking at something, along with the rest of the Gryffindors.

Kurama walked forward to see what they were looking at. It was Kuro-chan. Yuuske, Hiei, Jin, and Touya were trying to get it back to their dorm with no result. Well you couldn't say that Hiei was trying, he was with the others, but not doing anything. He was just laughing to himself at the other's efforts.

Kurama sighed at the other's silly antics. Kuro-chan, seeming to notice Kurama for the first time, purred and jumped onto his shoulders. His face rubbing Kurama's affectionately.

Hiei grumbled, his fun gone for the moment. Yuuske glared, "You could of come down earlier and saved us all of this trouble Kurama."

Kurama laughed and walked back up to the dorm. Hermonie caught up with him before he reached it though.

"What kind of cat is that? I've never seem one quite like it." She asked him.

"It's a wolf/cat/fox hybrid. That's why it's so large and angle." Kurama replied. "It reminds me of Kuronue." he half added to himself.

"Who?" Hermonie asked.

Kurama blinked, and realizing his mistake, quickly tried to cover it up. "He's a friend from home."

He could tell that Hermonie didn't believe him, so he quickly went inside to avoid her gaze.

I told you it would be harder then you thought. It's not even your first day and you already sipped up. Youko said smugly to his counterpart.

Kurama grumbled a reply, angry at himself for being so careless. This made youko laugh and slide back into a corner of his mind.

*****

When they all arrived at breakfast, they sat together again talking. Hiei glared at any giving even a passing longing glance at his beloved, which spooked many people away.

The owls son arrived in a flock. It was hardly the student's first day and owls were already being sent from home.

Yuuske was startled when an owl dropped a letter on his lap. Cautiously he opened the letter, Touya and Jin looking on as he read it.

Yuuske you BAKA!

What do you think you're doing running off like that without even a goodbye. Even Kuwabara was furious at you. You're going to have hell to pay when you get home mister. Demon Lord or not you're going to have the worst time of your life when the year's out. Enjoy your freedom while you can!

Keiko

Yuuske stared in horror at the letter, totally oblivious to Jin's and Touya's laughter from beside him.

Harry looked at the three, "Who's it from?" he asked them.

Touya managed to control his laughter. "Keiko, Yuuske's girlfriend."

Hearing this Kurama and Hiei started to chuckle, they knew what Keiko was like and could accurately guess what was in the letter.

Harry looked at Ron and Hermonie, and he could see that they didn't see what was so funny either.

A short while later, their schedules arrived and were passed out along the house tables.

Yuusuke took a quick glance at his schedule. Scanning the list, he sighed. "I swear, why do we have to have so many classes in one day. I'm going to start skipping if we get too much homework."

Jin readily agreed, "I am so not cut out to do work."

"No, you're going to every class, and doing you're homework, even if we have to force it down your throats. Do you understand?"

Yuusuke and Jin looked up to see Touya and Kurama staring at them. They both gulped and glanced at each other.

Hiei smirked, "If I were you, I would do as they say. You know how they are and the sickle moon is in a few days."

"What's going to happen during the sickle moon?" Ron asked Hiei.

The five turned to Ron. They had forgotten that the three of them were still sitting next to them.

Hiei snorted. "It's none of your business."

Ron was about to retort when Hermonie jumped in, "It doesn't matter. Can I see your schedules? I would like to know if we have the same classes or not."

Yuuske gladly handed his schedule to Hermonie. She took the paper and looked over it, Harry and Ron reading over her shoulder.

The schedule looked like this:

"Hey, it's the same as ours! That's great!" Ron cheered.

Hiei groaned, You mean I have to stand these idiotic humans all day?

Kurama sent a disapproving glare in Hiei's direction. Yes, you do, and please don't complain about it too much.

*****

Soon after, breakfast was over and the five youkai found themselves heading towards the dungeons, where their first class would be.

Yuusuke shivered, "Why does it have to be so damn cold down here?"

Harry shrugged, "You should of worn something warmer than a tank-top, Yuusuke."

"Besides, it not cold down here." Touya said.

Jin glared at Touya, "Well you shouldn't feel cold, you're the...mmmft!" Jin was cut short by Yuusuke, who had managed to stop him from revealing anything.

Hermonie turned to Jin, "What were you going to say?" she asked him.

"Nothing." Jin replied, smiling slightly. Touya just sighed and walked on.

Hiei growled at the two, "They're going to blow our cover and we haven't been here a day already."

Kurama sighed, "Don't worry about it Hiei. I'm sure they'll manage to keep it a secret."

"They better."

*****

The eight of them arrived early to potions class, so they got to pick their own seats. Since the only type of desks in the class room was a two-seater, they had to sit in pairs. Kurama sat with Hiei, Jin with Touya, Ron with Hermonie and Yuusuke with Harry.

Soon other students began to fill in the classroom. Kurama studied their behavior for a few minutes before turning to Harry.

"There seems to be some tension in this room. Do you know what the cause of it is?" he asked Harry, who was staring at something in front of him.

Harry looked up at Kurama. "It's nothing really. Its just that Gryffindors and Slytherins don't like each other very much." he sounded slightly sad, which confused Kurama slightly.

His confusion was cleared when he saw what, or should it have been who, Harry was staring at.

It was a boy dressed in green and black with the House of Slytherin bade on his robe. He had pale blonde hair, slicked back the way Yuusuke wears it and pale skin. Cold gray-blue eyes scanned the room for something.

Suddenly the boy saw Harry, who had quickly glanced away. He sneered at him, but Kurama could see a brief flask of pain in his eyes.

Kurama strained his ears to hear what the Slytherins were talking about. If only I had Youko's hearing... he thought.

So you do admit I am stronger than you. Youko thought to Kurama.

That was not mean for you to hear. It would only boost your enormous ego.

So, then you don't want to know what they were talking about?

Kurama paused and registered that for a second, You could hear them.

Youko laughed, I could only catch the boy's name.

What is it?

Draco.

Kurama was jerked out of his thoughts when Professor Severus Snape entered the room.

Jin looked at Touya, "He looks like he could use a sense of humor." he whispered.

Touya shushed him as Snape began to call role. Finally, he came to Yuusuke's and the others name.

Snape frowned at the five of them. "Let's see how much that school in Japan taught you five." he glanced from face to face.

Suddenly, he rounded on Touya, "What is the name of the ice that can only be found in magically enchanted springs?"

"Crystolian." Touya answered without even glancing up at Snape.

Snape frowned and turned to Yuusuke, who was leaning back in his chair as if he had not a care in the world. "Well then, what is the name of the main ingredient in a Ferment Potion?"

Yuusuke looked up at Snape, "Don't talk me for an idiot. It's a hair of a unicorn."

Snape's frown deepened, "Ten points from Gryffindor for that remark."

Yuusuke shrugged as if it didn't matter to him. Snape's eyes narrowed, but he turned to the others.

Rounding on Hiei, he half growled. "Tell me the name of the type of fire that is used to heat the Freezing Potion."

Hiei smirked, "The blue fire of the Ice Dragon." He was going to say more if it was not for a mental warning from Kurama.

Snape's mood seemed to be deteriorating rapidly as this session went on. Harry, Ron, and Hermonie could tell that this was not a good thing for the rest of the class, especially the Gryffindors.

Snape glared at the remaining two new students, both who seemed to be unfazed by it. He seems to be the less knowledgeable of the two. Snape thought as his gaze fell on Jin.

"What is the name of the main ingredient of the potion that extents one's life?" he asked the wind master.

Jin blinked, What in the world is he talking about? he wondered.

The answer is the blood of a unicorn. Touya's voice told him.

"The blood of a unicorn." Jin answered.

Snape glared at him and then turned to Kurama, the last of the new students.

"Well your friends have answered correctly, but can you? You seem to be the smartest of the four, so I will give you the hardest question of all. See if you can answer it." he sneered at him.

"I will answer if I can, Professor, but even the wisest does not know all." Kurama replied.

Snape, surprisingly, had no reaction to Kurama's answer. "Well then, what is the name of the plant that is the main ingredient of the potion that will turn you back into a child?"

Hiei could only smirk to himself, That is too easy for Kurama, he should of been given something harder.

"The fruit of past life" Kurama told Snape, "is the main ingredient of the potion of past life."

Snape glared at Kurama, but he soon turned from them and walked to the front of the classroom. "Now that out little session with the new students is over, you will make this potion for me."

He turned and began writing the instructions on the board. When he was done, Snape began to walk around the room, examining how the students were doing.

Ron turned to Yuusuke, "You guys sure pissed off Snape!" he said happily. "It was absolutely wonderful!"

Hermonie scolded him, "Really, as much as I hate Snape, it isn't a good thing to piss him off like that. Now he'll just pick on us more."

Harry sighed, "We have to hurry guys. everyone is ahead of us and we won't be able to finish before Snape gets to us. "

The rest of the class passed quickly for them as they finished their potions. Luckily, Snape didn't come near them, intent on making a fool out of other Gryffindors.

*****

Yuusuke quickly checked his schedule. "Thank god! Its a free period next!"

Jin laughed and smiled. "Yes! We can just play around!"

Kurama and Touya sighed. "I think we're going to do our potions homework so we won't have to worry about it later." Touya said.

"Can I join you?" Hermonie asked them.

"Sure." Kurama replied.

*****

The next two classes passed by quickly for the Reikai Tantei. Kurama was excellent at Herbology, as expected. History of Magic put everyone to sleep, except Kurama and Hermonie, who actually

took notes.

*****

The last class of the day was Care of Magical Creatures. The eight of them quickly made there way down towards Hagrid's hut near the Forbidden Forest.

Yuusuke sighed in annoyance. "Why does this class have to be so far away?"

"Hagrid lives on the school grounds, so his classes are at his hut." Harry explained.

Yuusuke groaned at the idea of having to walk to this far to a class.

"Lazy." Hiei murmured.

Yuusuke turned and glared at him, "Look, I'm not a speed de..."

Jin dove towards him and managed to cover his mouth before another word came out.

"Watch it." Touya hissed.

Harry looked at Ron and Hermonie in confusion. They were hiding something from them. But what?

Ron shrugged it off and made a small gesture meaning that they would talk later about it.

They soon arrived at Hagrid's hut, before anyone else managed to arrive.

In front of the hut was a giant of a man with shaggy black hair and a great black beard. Two small sparkling black eyes was hidden beneath all of the hair.

"This is Hagrid?" Jin asked.

"Yes." Harry replied.

They ten went up and said hello to the giant man.

Hagrid smiled. "Hello, Harry, Ron, Hermonie. How have you all been doing lately?"

"Fine Hagrid." Hermonie replied for the three of them.

Hagrid suddenly seemed to notice the rest of them. "So, you're the exchange students from Japan, right? What's your names?"

"Touya."

"Jin."

"Yuusuke."

"Kurama."

"Hn." he murmured, and received a nudge from Yuusuke. He growled at him, but replied anyway. "Hiei."

"Good, good." Hagrid replied cheerfully. "We're not doing very much today, we're only going over last years classes, so you can all relax, ok."

They spent the rest of the class idly talking about nothing as Hagrid droned on about last year's classes.

*****

Not so long after, the group headed to dinner. They sat at the table with the other Gryffindors and talked about that days classes.

"Don't worry." Harry said to the new students. "Hagrid is only like that the first day. You'll love his classes."

"Whatever you say." Yuusuke waved the comment off.

"No matter what class it is, Yuusuke won't like it. He's not a school type of person." Kurama explained at Harry's hurt look.

"I'm just wondering who our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is going to be. He isn't here today either." Hermonie wondered.

"Does it matter? We'll find out when we have his class tomorrow." Touya murmured as he ate.

*****

That night, Jin sat up in his bed, sensing a familiar ki. He grinned and quickly got up, heading over to Touya.

Quickly moving back the bed curtain, he shook the ice demon, trying to wake him up.

Touya let a soft moan escape from his lips, "Not now, Jin. It's too late." he murmured, still half asleep.

Jin pouted and pounced on Touya, waking him up from his sleep.

"What do you want?" Touya asked the wind demon on his lap.

"Do you feel that?" Jin asked him.

Touya looked at him strangely as he reached out with his mind. A second later a small smile formed on his face. Touya quickly stood, Jin falling off of his lap.

"Come on, let's go meet them." he told his friend.

The two demons then proceeded out of the Gryffindor dormitories and into the castle.

*****

They soon arrived at the front gate, just in time to see two figures walking into the castle. Jin walked forwards, so he was behind them. He then each one by the shoulder and spun them around.

Jin was met by a sword point at his throat. "Jeez Shishi, why are you so uptight?"

He was met by a pair of purple-pink eyes. "What are you doing up at this time of night?" Shishiwakumaru asked Jin.

"We were going to meet you two." Touya said as he came up from behind Jin.

"You're here two?" the demon with Shishi asked him.

"Of course I am, Suzuki." Touya answered, "But I want to know why are you two here?"

"Shishi's going to be the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, and I came with him." Suzuki explained.

"Then why were you two late?" Touya asked.

"Koenma messed up the date of the beginning of the school year. So, we're late by two days." Shishi told them.

Jin smiled, "Do you know where to go?"

The two other demons nodded and turned away. "We'll see you two tomorrow then. Have a good night and try not to wake the others up."

Touya frowned slightly, "Come on." He told Jin as he headed back up to the Gryffindor dormitories. "It's late enough already, I'd like to get some sleep tonight."

"But Touya, why don't we..." Jin began to whine.

"No, I'm too tired tonight anyway." Touya interrupted him.

"Meanie." Jin pouted and stuck his tongue out at his lover.

To be continued....

Now hurry up and review! I can't wait to hear from you!
