Hello, SG-chan here! *ducks behind desk* Sorry for the long wait - SG-chan actually has had this written for the longest time - she just hasn't gotten around to typing it Dx And honestly, the only reason this got typed up today was because SG-chan stayed home sick from school - again Dx I hasn't been feeling too well lately... Welp, go on and read!


*Flashback*

Rika narrowed her eyes. She would not allow this to go on.

*End Flashback*

"BOY!"

The door to the bedroom opened, and Vernon Dursley's enraged, piggish face poked itself in. "Get out here this instant unless you want me to drag you out!"

Rika merely smirked, and in her 'adult' voice, replied, "Make me."

Vernon Dursley's mind could not comprehend this reversal of the natural order of things. The boy - th-the freak was talking back to him! Him, Vernon Dursley, who'd taken the freak in out of the goodness of his heart (not to mention his paycheck)! With a roar, Vernon lunged forward, arms outstretched to wrap around his nephew's neck.

A bright light flashed, and the large man was thrown backwards, heavily impacting against the wall.

"Huh," Rika mused as she slid from her seat on the bed, looking down at her hands. "That could have come in handy against Takano. Wonder why I couldn't do it before."

"Vernon!" a horse-like woman shrieked as she saw the large man on the floor. "What did you do to him?" she blubbered, torn between anger and fear at seeing her husband like this.

"Aunt Petunia," Rika acknowledged as her previous memories informed her as to who this was. "You didn't berate me as Vernon did, but neither did you stop his or your son's actions." The imperial tone with which the boy spoke made Petunia shiver. This was Lily's child? "As such, I'll give let you off this time with a warning: Treat me like you did before and I'll make what I did to him seem like a love tap." Rika sneered 'him' in a tone that a pureblood would have been proud of. "I'll be going out now; I won't be back until later."

With that, the person who had previously been Harrison James Potter and was now Rika Furude walked down the stairs and out the door of Number 4 Privet Drive, leaving behind a situation of chaos and fear. Not too much unlike club activities, really.

From "Harry's" memories, Rika made her way to a nearby park, in which there was a particular tree that had been used by the girl turned boy before to hide from his/her 'cousin' during those oh so entertaining games of Harry Hunting. It was this tree that she climbed now, as she knew that no one would be able to reach her up here, so she would be free to think.

Why did I awaken now? the miko wondered. The previous times Hanyuu did this, I was in my own body in Hinamizawa with Satoko, Mion, Shion, Keiichi, and Rena. Now I'm in the body of this Harry Potter person, it's July of 1991, and I'm in fucking England! Rika settled into a gloomy little funk as she went over this information. Am I truly alone this time?

The thought of the letter Harry had filched came to mind, and Rika sat up straighter. That letter was from Hanyuu, so she's still around! And Satoko... The young miko's spirits rose at the thought of her best friend. She returned back to what the letter had said.

So Harry is a wizard... well, I guess that would explain the whole white light thing earlier, especially since the only times things like that have happened to me have been on accident or when Hanyuu was around. So, now to find this Diagon Alley... I wonder if there's a Horizont Alley or a Vertic Alley.

As she formed a plan, Rika began to climb down from the tree. Hanyuu's letter had said that Harry Potter was quite well-known in the Wizarding World. Of course, this could have meant anything from her other side being a rock star to a criminal. For being around however long Hanyuu had been, she had quite the gift for understatement. I'll have to find some way to disguise myself, the girl-turned-boy mused. Maybe, if magic could throw that walrus man across the room, I could change my appearance with it.

A part of Rika died as she realized that she would never grow into curves like her mother, or have gigantic breasts like Mion or Shion. And I was really looking forward to growing taller and getting actual boobs once we defeated fate...

As she sat at the base of the tree, Rika reached for the feeling of what she though was her magic, what she'd felt when she threw Vernon. Theoretically, she should be able to will it towards what she wanted to accomplish; in this case, making herself a little taller, changing her eyes and hair to a more favorable color and length, and doing something to get rid of those awful glasses.


The Leaky Cauldron looked even dirtier than the Hinamizawa dump. Considering how full of junk that place was, that was saying something.

"Excuse me," the girl in a boy's body said shyly.

"Hmm? What can I do for ya?" the barkeep asked.

"Ano, I have to get into Diagon Alley," Rika told him, playing up her 'shy foreign kid' role for all its worth.

"Ah, yer first time, hmm?" the man smiled. Rika nodded slowly. "Name's Tom, by the way," the barkeeper informed her as he led the way through the slightly crowded pub.

"M-my name is Keiichi Furude," Rika blurted out the first male Japanese name that came to her mind. It was sad, really, that she barely knew any other guys in the village. That had to mean something...

Tom raised an eyebrow. "Foreign, are ya?"

"H-hai. I m-mean, yes, yes."

"You'll be going to Ollivander's to get a wand then?" Tom inquired.

"Yes," Rika replied, inwardly confused.

"Then I'd best show you how to get in for future reference." The man took out a stick - It looks shiny, Rika though absent-mindedly - and poked in a brick three up and two over. The wall instantly rearranged itself, creating a doorway to a bustling, medieval-style street. Tom chuckled at the look on the child's face. "Never get tired of seeing first-timer's react. You'll be wanting to go to Gringott's, the bank, first. Are you going to Hogwarts this year?" At Rika's nod, Tom continued. "Then school shopping would be best after you go to Gringotts. Make sure to stay out of Knockturn Alley, though; it's a seedy place, full of bad sorts."

"A-arigatou," Rika thanked him. "I-I mean, thank you!"

Tom gave a little chuckle as he watched the boy head towards Gringotts, then went back to tending the bar.

Rika was amazed by her surroundings. Some of these shops she passed had the most outlandish names! She took notice of the warning above the door to the bank, and a small smirk crossd her face as she wondered how their traps would fare in comparison to those of "Trapmaster" Satoko Houjou.

As soon as she entered the waiting room of the bank, Rika could feel a heavy weight around her. The air itself became somewhat hard to breathe, and she didn't notice, as she sunk to her knees, a white nimbus of light appearing around her, startling the other occupants of the bank, and prompting the quick arrival of goblin guards as well as a cloaked figure with a large knapsack.


Fufufu, I is so evil with the cliffhanger xB And yes, explanations shall be coming within the next chapter or so, as well as the appearance of Satoko! Welp, explanations for some things, anyway. Just one word: Goblins ;3 Oh, and slight Inuyasha x-over *whistles innocently* Well, 'nuff said, review!
