I only claim onto Rain and the story line.


"Kurama got an invitation to the Halloween dance from Professor Dumbledore. I can convince him to come, say you want to clear the air with hi Rai Rain looked at her brother "Then what?"

Hiei smiled at her and pulled her close, whispering to her. The Kenshingumi saw Rain smile that evil smile that meant she was planning something and they all felt a bit nervous when she looked straight at them with the same devilish smile. Their unease grew when hertherther grinned the same grin.

Kenshin muttered "I have a bad feeling about this, that I do."

The Kenshingumi looked a bit wary as the two demons approached them. Rain was smiling that demonic smile again, although Hiei's face had gone emotionless. "Umm, Miss Rain, is everything alright?"

Rain smiled to Kenshin "Yes, Kenshin, everything will be fine. However, I need your help with something." To everyone's surprise she turned to Sanosuke "Oh, Sano" she said in her sweetest voice "I need to ask a favor."

Sano immediately began to back up, only to be stopped by Aoshi pushing on his back. Rain just grinned at Sano "Hmm, the former fighter for hire wouldn't be running away would he?"

Sano gulped "Um, no, no I was just ummmm admiring the stands here, they are very tall." He looked up, whistling, still trying to edge away. Rain laughed, as did the others, and grabbed his arm. "I need you to pretend you and I are an item at the Halloween dance, Sano. Kurama will be there and I want to make him jealous enough to where he will finally admit his feelings for me, so I can tell him mine."

The others gawked at her, only Aoshi and Kenshin knew who Kurama was. Yahiko spoke "Who is Kurama?"

Hiei sighed "A fox demon that is in love with my sister." He looked at Sanosuke who had turned pale at the word demon "I need you to convince him that you are trying to steal Rain away from him. Make him jealous. However, he can not know that Rain was a part of this, or he would be upset with her." Rain nodded "Please guys, trust me Sano, I help you quite a bit in your future, you could do this for me."

Sano gulped again "But, Rain, he's a demon!!!"

Rain giggled "I won't let him hurt you. Anyways, he is very mild mannered, and won't be in demon form. He knows better then to go to that form around other's. Please Sano. For me?"

Sano sighed, looking to the Kenshingumi for help. The others just looked up, whistling. He growled "Some help you guys are." Kaoru laughed "Oh come on Sano, help Rain out. You will be playing matchmaker to someone other then me and Kenshin for once." Kenshin nodded "Yeah Sano, you might gome ome practice to improve your technique with us this way, that you may." Kenshin ducked as Sano swung out to hit him. The others laughed and Sano sighed "Fine, I'll help you, but you owe be big for this shorty."

Hiei growled as did Rain "Don't call me (her) shorty" they both said at the same time. Sano paled even more and backed off, turning and running as Rain took off after him, catching him within three steps and knocking him to gro ground with a blow to the head. "Hey that hurt"

The quidditch field rang with laughter. Rain reached down and helped Sto hto his feet and then looked up and saw four robed figures coming towards them. Rain smiled at her wizard friends and when the four had arrived they all looked at Hiei curiously. Hermione spoke first "You are Hiei, right? Rain's brother?"

Hiei frowned "Hn". Rain rolled her eyes and Harry and Ron started to laugh "Hey Rain, you sound just like him." Rain smiled and made introductions all around, now that everyone spoke and understood the same language.

After introductions Harry asked "What are you guys doing out here anyways?" Rain grinned evilly as Sano moaned "Planning my demise." The others just laughed at him and seeing her friends curiously looks, Rain filled them in on the plan to get Kurama to fall for her.

Harry frowned "What about Draco instead?" Hiei glared his death glare and said darkly "No" the others took a step away from him. Rain looked calm though "No, Kurama knows I don't have a thing for Draco, that won't work." They all nodded and Hiei frowned, looking up as others started to come from the castle. "Hn, I must leave. Don't worry Rain, he will be there at the party." 'As will I' with that he was gone, in a quick blur.

The Kenshingumi, Rain and the four wizards looked up as the Ravenclaw team made their way onto the field. They stopped uncertainly. Cho finally spoke up "Ummm, we are suppose to be practicing now." The others nodded and Rain spoke softly "Sorry, we were just showing the new comers around." she lied with ease.

With that they left the Quidditch field and headed towards the castle. Kenshin asks Rain about this "Halloween Party". She explains the whole concept. Sanosuke freaks out again "What? A day to celebrate ghosts and goblins?" Rain the the others just laugh at him "Honestly, , it, it's just for fun. And beside, it's not lHogwHogwarts doesn't have ghosts anyways." Sanosuke yelled what just as a water balloon thrown by Peeves slams into the top of his head. "AHHHHHH, I'm under attack."

Kaoru and Misao had both yelped and hid behind Aoshi and Kenshin, while Kenshin dropped to a crouch, hand hovering over his reverse blade sword. Rain, Harry, Ginny and Ron were laughing while Hermione was looking up, waving a fist at Peeves, who zoomed off on a cackle. They all looked afterwards and Kaoru spoke "Where is Yahiko?" Sano pushed wet hair from his eyes and looked behind a large urn against the wall, pulling Yahiko out by the back of his shirt. "Here he is, little coward."

Yahiko pulled his wooden sword off his back and started to swing it at Sanosuke "Who you calling coward, you were the one yelling in fright. Let me go, Sano."

The others just started laughing again and moved down the hall. Hermione looked back worriedly at Sano and Yahiko "Will they be alright?" Rain giggled and Misao answered "Yeah, they always act like that. You will get use to it." Kenshin sighed and gave his rurouni eyes "Yeah, the Kenshin group is famous for fighting amongst themselves."


The rest of the week flew by for the friends. The Kenshingumi attended classes with Rain to see what they were like, after all this was a once in a life time opportunity for them. They did homework also, although it wasn't required. Yahiko surprisingly put alot of effort into it, ing ing it all interesting. When not doing homework, they worked on their Halloween outfits.

Kenshin and the others were going in their regular outfits. After the first day they had taken to wearing robes which had miraculously aped fed for them. Rain was very silent about what she was going to be going as, but had disappeared the night after the Kenshingumi arrived and returned with cuts and bruises on her arms and legs.

Harry, Hermione, Ron and Ginny decided to go as muggles. Not too original, but then Rain had found out and she came up with some awesome outfits. She sent a letter to Hiei who immediately took Kurama with him and they sent back the outfits she had requested, wigs and all. Harry and Hermione had immediately knocked down the idea, seeing the outfits, but seeing Ginny and Ron really wanting to go, they had reluctantly agreed. Rain went away giggling.

Hiei had sent a letter in with the clothes and sent word that Kurama was going to the ball and that he didn't know anything about "Sano and you being together." She sighed and then shook her head. He hadn't told her what Kurama was going as, but it didn't really matter, you couldn't miss that redhead.

Finally Halloween was upon them. They only had morning classes, so the school could get ready for the dance that night. The Kenshingumi was the first to get ready, seeing as their outfits were so fiar iar to them. Kenshin wore his typical outfit, complwithwith reverse blade sword, as did Yahiko and Sano. Kaoru wore a kimono and Aoshi and Misao wore their Oniwaban ots. ts.

Rain came down the stairs in a pair of black baggy pants and light blue flowing shirt. The short sleeves showed off a bound arm, something they hadn't all realized before. (She has never shown her arm to them, always having it covered with the robe). The Kenshingumi all raised their eyebrows and Kenshin asked nervously as Harry, Hermione, Ron and Ginny came into the common room of the Gryffindor "Ummm, Ms. Rain, is that such a good idea?" The Kenshingumi knew that outfit well and had instantly discovered what her costume would be.

The others turned as Harry spoke "Is what a good idea? I don't understand what your costume is, Rain." His words however were almost lost by the outburst of laughter as they were spotted by everyone in the common room.

They were flower children. Bell bottoms, long wigs, headbands, flowing shirts, flowers in their hair, platform shoes, the whole nine yards. Ginny and Hermione even had mood rings onarryarry's glasses had been transformed to period glasses from the 70's. Ginny and Ron looked around in wonder, they thought they looked cool. Hermione flushed with embarrasment as did Harry. However, Harry gave a peace sign, much to the amusement of the muggle borns in Gryffindor and the laughter finally died down.

Rain had tears in her eyes, although they did not fall. "You four look so wonderful. I am so glad you let me get you those outfits." They all looked at Rain and then noticed people were filing out of the common room. Rain sighed "Ok, I stalled for as long as possible. Time for me to get into my *cough cough* outfit."

The Kenshingumi took a step back, Kenshin stammering "D-D-Do you think that is such a good idea right now, Miss Rain? Maybe you should wait a bit, that you should." n shn shook her head and motioned for the wizards of the group to step back. "Nah, I have done this a few times this week, I'm good now, although not too well appreciated in the Forbidden Forest." Hermione gasped at that, then so did all the others left in the common room as a deep red glow developed over Rain.

Her Jagan was open, glowing a deep blue. Her other two eyes closed though and she began to change. Her ears started to grow into points, her eyes becoming more almond shaped. Her canines stretched into fangs and her fingertips grew into sharp claws. Her height stayed the same but her skin turned a deep red color and her eyes opened, also glowing red. She looked down at herself and nodded and then looked at the others in the deathly quiet room. When she spoke, it was a deep voice, still feminine, but the tone had changed. She literally sounded like the demon she was, her voice even echo'd a little. "Well, is this good enough of a costume?"

The Kenshingumi just nodded, but a soft "Wow" came from one of the Gryffindor's of the room, followed by a flash and Rain turned her head sharply at Collin, who was lowering a camera. She instantly was at his side, using her speed freely, not being able to resist her nature in this form very well. "Don't take a picture of me again in this form, do you understand me?" At his wordless nod, she flittered back to her friends and looked up at them "We ready to go?" They nodded and she smiled a fe smi smile to Sano "Remember the plan, Sanosuke." He nodded with a gulp and the group headed for the portal, ready to go down to the party.

(A/N Ok, this chapter has gone on long enough. I thought I would be able to do the party in this one, but I was wrong, however I will write and post the party asap. I have the notes down for it and I know the directionant ant to take, but I need to switch and do a small bit of Kurama's POV before I get to the party. However it will happen soon.

Mija - Thanks for your constant reviews. Glad you are enjoying this one too. Since you don't know the Kenshin group much, let me tell you, the bickering they do constantly is normal. There was even a line in one of the shows where Kenshin is watching Yahiko and Sano bickering and says something along the lines of "If the Kenshin group is already fighting amongst themselves then we are in trouble, that we are." Not a direct quote. It was from the episode where they meet Megumi (the female doctor). She is only mentioned in this fan fiction, not a part of it.

Rurouni Agra - Glad you like it. Yeah, I wanted to have a new character come in that could work well with both. Didn't want to have to take an existing character and make it ooc to fit it in to Rurouni Kenshin and Harry Potter if it was from Yu Yu Hakusho. The idea of having them be children of destiny comes from the fact Hiei is the forbidden child. And I like Draco being good. Hope you keep reading and reviewing.

Ok, I will get to the next part, which will be the party. However, I felt this chapter had gone on long enough. I need to throw a bit of Kurama POV in and then onto the party. Hope you all enjoy the next installment, it will be here tomorrowish. I have the notes for it, just need to write it. Enjoy it and let me know what you think. Oh, there will be a battle (mock of course) between Kenshin andn. n. I never have written a full battle out before and before we get to the end, when I know I am going to have them fighting, i would like to write a battle for you guys to read and review and give me tips for improving so I can make the end battle awesome. oK, off I go. Enjoy!)
