Different Type Of Wizard

Upon the Hour

"So, did it work?" She asked before he could tell her.

"Yes, it told us that the next trial shall take place at the Black lake, where we will search for a lost item in the timespan of an hour." He informed her. "Do you know why Minato Sensei went with Professor Snape?" He asked.

"He was summoned to Dumbledore Sensei's office, Snape was just relaying the message." Kushina answered. "So, how do you plan on breathing underwater for an hour? Because dispite your genius abilities, I doubt you can hold your breath for that long" she teased.

"I'll Shunshin back and forth between myself and a clone, who will remain hidden from the crowd. If that doesn't work, I can see how long I am able to hold my breath I guess." He teased back. She smiled at his jest, her features then setting into a more serious expression.

"Have you had any progress with finding out who put Potter in the Triwizard Tournament?" Kushina asked all business.

"No, but I've managed to clear out a few people. The foreigners had nothing to do with it, so I've started investigating the students and staff." Kakashi informed her, also taking a more serious tone.

"I know I haven't been here nearly as long as you, but I've also taken an interest into your mission. Lord Hokage is concerned that if this 'Voldemort' should return, it could prove either very catastrophic or infidantly beneficial for the Leaf. So you need to flush out whoever entered Harry into the Tournament and discover his masters intentions. So it is imperative that you don't kill him on sight Kakashi, we and the Wizarding World can both benifit from the information. This is not a direct order from Hiruzem, but I am sure you understand my reasoning for asking this of you." Kushina said.

"Hai." Kakashi said. She smiled towards him, greatful for his trust in her.

"Now, I think that you should get some rest. You have a long day tomorrow." Kushina said while pushing Kakashi down against a plump pillow, grabbing a blanket to put over him.

"Kushina, I have to go back to the dorm to guard Potter. Also I don't know if Harry has figured out how to succeed in the task." He said, sitting up before Kushina pushed him back down.

"Minato wrote to Alastor, asking him to be the one to assist Potter. Besides, do you really think someone will make an assassination attempt the night before the second task. They won't risk it, they're most likely putting all their efforts to make sure he dies during the task, to ensure it looks like an accident. So your staying here tonight. Besides, I want to make sure you eat properly before the Tournament." Kushina stated firmly in english, solidifying her statement. Kakashi grudgingly layed back down on the black couch that was much to big for him. Kushina smiled at his cute, small form that was enveloped in the couch. "Goodnight Kakashi." She said while placing a kiss on his forehead. Kakashi was used to her motherly antics, so he didn't comment on the matter.

"Goodnight Kushina-san." He said, turning onto his side, closing his eyes.
