Series – Hogwarts and Halliwells

Title – The Charmed Professors

Summary: 3rd in my Hogwarts and Halliwells series. Dumbledore invites the Charmed Ones to teach DADA. They accept bringing Leo and the boys along. And how many powers do Harry, Ron and Hermione have? Harry Potter Charmed Xover. Major AU. HarryGinny RonHermione JamesLily LeoPiper.

Disclaimer: I did not own Harry Potter or Charmed yesterday, I do not own them today and I will not own them tomorrow. But I can always hope about the day after that, can't I?

Other Information: Leo is a mortal, but still has two 'gifts' left (one of which won't be found out in this story, I'm evil aren't I?). Lily is about a 2 and a half months pregnant (Lily was pregnant when she died and when she came back to Earth, the pregnancy continued from where it 'ended', just to stop that confusion) and the only person who knows the sex is Leo (Check out Chapter 15: Battle Aftermath and Unexpected Surprises to remember why). Phoebe hasn't got her Empathy yet and Paige can't glamour. They only have their first two powers. And there was a 2 year period after Paige found out she was witch to when season 4 starts again, so say between Black As Cole and Must To My Ears there is a 2 year gap. To my knowledge, schools in America open in the middle of August (Strange but ok...) so if it isn't, I'm basing it on this fact. And Dumbledore has found out about Lily and James coming back as Whitelighters ok? Read my other stories first chapters for vital information.

This is the third in my Hogwarts and Halliwells series, so here is a little recap of the previous instalments:

My Parents, the Whitelighters: Harry has a dream of the Charmed Ones and asks them for help in summoning his parents. It fails but Leo comes down from 'Elderland' with Lily and James, who are now Whitelighters (James is Remus and Sirius' and Lily is Harry, Hermione and Ron's.). They return to Grimmauld Place to tell Sirius and Remus. After the reunion, James goes to the ministry to tell them that he is alive and that Sirius is innocent. It is announced in the Daily Prophet and Lily, James, Harry, Sirius and Remus move to Godric's Hollow (the real one, not the one that was blown up, which was a safe house with the same name).

Harry Potter and the Last Battle: An Elder tells Lily and James that everyone has to help Harry defeat Voldemort. The Elders discover there are Kinetic Charmed Ones and release their powers. Harry, Hermione, Ron and Ginny turn out to be those Kinetic Charmed Ones. They have to learn to control the powers and train to defeat Voldemort. Ron and Hermione & Harry and Ginny start dating. When they arrive at the battlefield, James, Sirius and Remus run into Wormtail while Harry and the others go straight to Voldemort. The Marauders find them and Voldemort casts Avada Kedavra at Harry. Wormtail jumps in the way, fulfilling his Wizard's Debt to Harry. Harry then casts Avada Kedavra with Hermione, Ron and Ginny and Voldemort is finally killed. In the end, Lily discovers that she is pregnant.

Now, ON WITH THE STORY!

Halliwell Manor…

The sun was rising above the San Francisco skyline, but not one person in Halliwell Manor was awake to see it. Everyone was in bed, as it was only 7am. Even Wyatt and Chris were sleeping soundly, as if they knew that everyone was tired. Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Leo had been out the previous night until 3, celebrating P3's 8th year in business. Although one of the most important people wasn't there, they knew that Prue would be watching. Unfortunately, because Leo was no longer an Elder, he couldn't check up on Prue, so they had to use Patty and Grams to get a message to Prue. She, of course, sent messages back, but since the Elders were always watching, they couldn't be much. Patty kept telling the girls that they would see Prue when the time came. Piper's first thoughts to that were 'Bull. They just don't want us to see her.' But she had kept her mouth shut about it. Aggravate them and they might not ever let her come down. But right now, they slept. Until, that is, a loud crack echoed through the house. Piper woke with a start. She furrowed her brow in confusion and sat up.

"Leo, did you just hear that?" She nudged her husband.

"Hear what?" Leo said, sleepily, just about opening his eyes.

"A loud crack. You sure you didn't hear it, it was pretty loud."

"I'm sure, but since I'm awake, I'll check it out." He yawned loudly.

"That could have woken everyone up. I'm gonna go see if Phoebe or Paige are awake. You check the attic and we'll take downstairs." Leo nodded and both pulled themselves out of the bed. Leo quickly checked on the children, while Piper went to her sister's rooms.

"Phoebe, you awake?" She opened the door to find Phoebe putting her dressing gown on.

"Did you hear it too?" Piper nodded. "What about Leo?"

"No, he didn't. He's going to check the attic, see if anything's up there. We need to get Paige up." But no sooner had Piper spoken, that said Charmed One waltzed in, looking very sleep deprived.

"I am going to see what that noise was, then vanquish it for waking me up at this ungodly hour." She told them. The three sisters then progressed downstairs. They expected a demon, or a few, to be waiting but instead found an old man, with the longest beard any of them had ever seen.

"Who are you? And what the hell are you doing in our house?" Piper asked.

"Forgive my intrusion. I was clumsy enough to forget the time difference." He had a British accent. "My name is Albus Dumbledore, and I am the headmaster at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I have some business to discuss with you."

"Hogwarts? Wasn't that where…" Phoebe started but Dumbledore stopped her.

"Yes, I believe you had a visit from 3 of my pupils, Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger, about a month and a half ago. You helped Harry find his parents, James and Lily Potter. All excellent students of mine."

"Well, Leo was the one who helped. Speaking of which… LEO! Get down here!" Piper yelled up the stairs.

"Not too loud. Not until I get my coffee." Paige said, moving towards the kitchen. Leo came down the stairs, still not fully awake.

"What is it?" He asked, not noticing Dumbledore at first. Piper motioned with her head to Dumbledore and Leo then noticed. "Err, who are you?"

"Albus Dumbledore. From Hogwarts." Piper told him. "Are the kids still asleep?"

"Yes. Professor Dumbledore, what are you doing here so early?" Leo asked.

"Professor?" Phoebe asked, confused.

"Instead of calling the teachers mister and mrs, they use the prefix professor." Leo let another yawn out.

"Oh right. Come through here." Piper walked into the living room, with Phoebe and Leo and Dumbledore following behind.

"Leo, do you have any idea why he might be here?" Piper asked in a hushed whisper.

"No. But it's sounds important." Although he wasn't an Elder anymore, he still knew of some happenings. Being a Whitelighter for over 60 years had it perks. Piper, Phoebe and Leo sat.

"Have a seat Professor." Piper said. Dumbledore sat opposite them. Paige walked in from the kitchen, nursing a cup of coffee.

"Ahh, coffee. The solution to early morning problems. So what is this all about?" She asked Dumbledore while sitting next to Phoebe.

"Well, as you know I am the headmaster of Hogwarts. This school year we are in need of a teacher for our Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and I was wondering if you would consider taking the job."

"Woah, wait, us teachers? Why did you ask us? Isn't there enough people in England that qualify?" Phoebe asked.

"Well, I thought that with your experience, you would be perfect for the job. And of course, you husband and children would be welcome."

"So you want us to come and teach? Isn't it a little late? The schools opened a week ago." Piper said.

"Hogwarts starts the term on September 1st. Since you have a week until the beginning of term, you have a few days to consider my proposal."

"But why us? I thought that the kids at Hogwarts used wands? We have powers and use Wiccan magic." Paige said.

"I thought you knew? All Wiccan magic has descended from wand magic, so every Wiccan can use a wand." Dumbledore explained.

"Wait, are you telling us that we can use wands? What about Wyatt and Chris?"

"Yes, if they are your children your talking about. And Leo," Dumbledore turned to him. "You are able to use a wand also. It turns out that before you were a Whitelighter, you were from a Muggle family but you yourself are a Muggleborn, which means that you are a wizard."

"How do you know all that about Leo?" Piper asked, slyly.

"I have a contact that communes with a group of Elders and was given the information from her. It was her also that recommended you."

"But if I was a wizard, how come I never got a letter from a wizarding school?" Leo asked.

"That is unknown. The only one in America is the Salem's Institute for Witchcraft and Wizardry. You should have received a letter on your 11th birthday."

"Maybe because the Elders knew you were to become a Whitelighter, they stopped a letter from coming?" Paige offered her view.

Dumbledore nodded. "That is quite possible. Well, would you like to fill the position?"

Piper looked at Phoebe, then Paige, then to Leo. All their expressions were telling her one thing. "Yes. We would."

"Excellent. I expect to see you arriving by the Hogwarts Express on September 1st."

"Hogwarts Express? What is that and where do we get it from?"

"Ah yes, how silly of me. The Hogwarts Express train leaves platform 9 ¾ from Kings Cross station, London, at 11am. I assume you can get to London?" Paige nodded.

"Yeah, I can orb them. 9 ¾? What do you mean by that? 9 ¾, does something like that even exist?"

"There is a concealed barrier between platforms 9 and 10. You run between them and you can find your way from there." They nodded.

"So, do any other teachers have to go by train?" Phoebe asked.

"Only new teachers. Well, I shall see you at the feast. Good day." And Dumbledore apparated away, surprising the newly discovered wand witches and wizard. Piper looked at them.

"So, us teachers?"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, isn't that the coolest thing ever. Leo is a wizard and he never knew it? Who saw that coming, honestly. Trying to figure out their wands now, so review then you'll find what they are. And also, I'm really sorry for you waiting for this, I was supposed to have published it about two weeks ago, but my laptop had no internet connection :( Well, at least its here now!
