Sorry for such a short chapter after waiting so long for an update, but I felt it was good where I ended it that way the next chapter will be more exciting. Hopefully. I've had a bad case of writers block.

Harry sighs, pinching his nose. "As if Edward wasn't already a nuisance, now I have to deal with Malfoy. Again. Plus, we still haven't found any clues on the hearts and this other species in Forks."

His family looks at him sympathetically while Tyki rubs his shoulders.

"Don't worry my darling son, I will protect you from these lecherous men!" Sheryl exclaims, then starts mumbling. "Why must my precious children be so adorable that everyone wants a piece of them!?"

Tyki sighs at his brothers antics. "Just ignore him my love. You know I will always protect you as will the rest of us."

"We protect our own." The Millennium Earl says.

"If they want my big brother, they'll have to go through me!" Road says, a sadistic grin on her face.

"They'll have to go through all of us. Especially me." Tyki corrects.

Harry smiles. "Thanks. You're the best family I could've asked for."

"Of course we are." Debitto grins.

"Yeah, hiii!" Jasdero says.

"So what's our plan of action?" Wisely asks, looking at the Earl.

"Harry-pon knows the situation better, so I'm sure he can come up with a plan."

"Our main priority is to find the heart. We've gone off track with all my drama, which I apologize for."

"No need Harry. It's not like it's your fault." Road says.

Everyone nods.

"True. Thanks. Anyway, I suggest we split into groups to tackle the problems. Malfoy doesn't know what became of me after the war, but I know him, and I know he'll immediately start asking around town about me. We can use that to our advantage. Lulubell, could you change to your human form but with a casual look to fit in with the townspeople?"

"Yes." Lulubell answers.

"Okay. From there, I'll give you a picture of Malfoy. When you see him, say you know where I live and you'd be happy to show him when in reality you'll really lure him into the woods and give him a good scare and threaten him to leave. If that doesn't work, knock him out and capture him."

Lulubell nods.

"Tyki, Wisely, Road, you three will be with me to search for the heart."

"Yay!" Road hops up and down.

"Why don't we get to come!?" Debitto asks.

"Because I'll need you, Jasdero, Skin, Sheryl and of course, the Earl, to mislead and distract the exorcists and pesky vampires if need be."

Debitto's eyes light up.

"I like that plan! Leave all the exorcists to Jasdero and I!"

"Yeah, hii! We'll kill them all."

"I said distract, not kill." Harry looks pained at the thought.

"Oh, my precious son!" Sheryl grabs Harry in a bone crushing hug. "You're too kind, but I guess it wouldn't be fun to kill them all right away. We'll do as you say."

"Indeed." The Earl says, a glint in his eyes as if to say 'I dare you to oppose this plan.' "Now that Harry-pon's laid out the plan, let's get to work."


"Why the beach?" Wisely asks.

"I heard some kids at school talking about it and it's one of the towns hotspots we haven't checked out yet."

"That's true." Tyki says. "We'll need to blend in though."

"Got that covered. Hide behind this bush."

Road, Tyki and Wisely have learned not to question Harry by now, so they do as told.

"Alright. I'm going to use magic to replace our clothes with swimsuits."

Harry starts the spell, Tyki's casual dress shirt and black slacks turning into a simple pair of black beach shorts. Wisely's white outfit turns into a pair of white swim shorts and a white and black sun hat to cover his extra eye. Road's lolita outfit turns into a cute one-piece swimsuit that's light pink with a darker pink ribbon around the waist.

"So cute! Thanks Harry." Road squeals, hugging Harry who himself is now wearing a pair or green swim shorts that match his human eyes.

Harry smiles and hugs back. "You're welcome. I know you like cute clothes."

"I have to admit that magic is really handy." Wisely observes.

"Indeed." Tyki agrees, eyes Harry up and down.

"Focus love, though I don't mind the admiration." Harry grins.

"Now that we have the right outfits, let's go blend in!" Road runs to the beach, starting to make a sandcastle.

"We should follow her lead and keep an eye on her. She tends to get distracted and wander off." Tyki says.

"Yes. I got some umbrella's, towels, and beach chairs."

Harry walks to where Road is, setting things up.


Lulubell sits in a local restaurant called The Lodge, staring at the picture of this 'Malfoy' character Harry gave her. He's not bad looking. Bleach blonde hair, grey eyes and fair skin, wearing an all black suit outfit. The only problem is the picture is from when the boy was in his teens.

Harry told her he shouldn't have changed to much in appearance, but if he did, go by anyone asking around about him. So far nothing. Just a few men trying to hit on her. She ignored them and they got the idea thankfully.

She's on a mission and nothing will distract her, for the sake of Harry and her family.


"I'm bored." Debitto states, frown on his face.

Jasdero nods. "Bored."

"Patience. The vampires are out of the picture since today is a rare sunny day in Forks." The Earl says.

"Yeah, but we haven't seen those exorcists either." Sheryl points out.

"Bah." Skin grunts, sucking on a piece of candy.

"It is strange. Be on your guard my children~"

Meanwhile, the exorcists are enjoying a nice day off, demands of Komui (read: Komui whining), oblivious to the Noah's movements.


"Is it just me or are those ridiculously large, tan boys staring at us, and not in a good way. More like a distrusting way." Wisely asks.

"Normally I'd say you were be too overly observant, but you're right Wisely." Harry says, side-eyeing the group staring at them as if they're trying to figure out a complex puzzle.

"At work I heard mention of the beach also be reservation territory for the local native tribe. This is a small town where everyone knows everyone. Perhaps they're wondering who we are." Tyki says.

"No. Harry and Wisely are right. Something feels off about them and I think they can sense it about us as well." Road says, frowning.

"Why don't I go ask why they're staring?" Harry suggests, knowing he's the best around humans.

"Alright, but be careful. Signal if you need us." Tyki says, squeezing Harry's hand.

"I will." Harry says, kissing Tyki's hand then walking over to the group of boys who look wary and startled at his approach.

"Hello. My names Harry and my companions over there are Tyki, Road and Wisely. Not to be rude or anything, but we were wondering why you're staring at us so intently?"

The group looks equal parts startled at Harry's politeness and that they were caught staring.

Harry frowns when none of them say anything.

"Umm...are you alright?"

Finally, one, who looks to be leader and voice of the group steps forward, eyeing Harry like he's a threat.

"The question is who and what are you?"


Cliffhanger. Sorry, but read my note above and you'll know why. I promise I'll do my best to make the next chapter exciting.
