Chapter 1: Letters and Host Family
Japan:
Dark green eyes narrowed in irritation as teeth clenched behind pale lips. Fingers curled tightly into fists as a young girl glared down at a game board. Her opponent watching her with an amused look in his eyes, until light taps against their paper door broke the intense atmosphere as a servant entered. In the older woman's hands held a white envolope with a special seal.
India:
Dark caramel fingers caressed yellow and black scales wrapped around a young boy's neck as he hummed a little tune as his other hand tickled the soft belly of a baby, chuckles emitted from the tiny body and the boy above until soft hoots echoed. Stepping away from the child he was teasing before, the teen approached the owl at his window sill, slowly he gave the bird a piece of fruit he had earlier from lunch while he took the letter attached to its leg.
France:
A violin sang and hummed as lithe fingers danced on the neck as the bow teased the strings, thrumming a sweet melody into the air as people watched in awe. The player's eyes' closed as she was swept away into the song and once the poetic sound ended, applause sounded through the room. She curtsied toward the audience, feeling satisfied with her performance as she walked off stage. Backstage her parents waited for her, both clutching eachother's hands while her father's other hand held a letter.
America:
Heavy pants and sqweaky sneakers sounded around a basketball court. A mass of bodies pushed and shoved as players from the opposing team tried to steal the ball when out of nowhere a long tanned arm slapped the ball out of one the opposing team's hand and quickly shot the ball into the basket winning the game. While grabbing a sports towel from his bag to wipe the sweat off his face, his attention was caught by the beating of feathers wings. Glancing to the top of the court's fence he spotted an owl so he dug throw his bag again until he pulled out a box of graham crackers, breaking off a piece he gave it to the bird while he grabbed the letter. As the owl nibbled on the cracker he examined the seal.
Inside the envolope was a specialized letter for all four teens and it read the following:

Each potential student gazed at the contents of the letter, amazed at the prospect of attending the infamous school of hogwarts. All of the teens decided right there and then that it was an experience too good to pass off.
Meanwhile Headmistress McGonagall paced her office, wandering if she made the right decision. "Something wrong?" a voice inquired behind her desk. "I'm just not so sure about your idea, Albus." Minerva replied turning toward Dumbledore's portrait. "This school has already gained a bad reputation after last year's war." "Come now my dear, that's not intirely true, there are many that have claimed hogwarts to be the best place for an education." "Yes, but those are only from students from this school. Salem and Mahoutokoro were quite vocal in their isolation from us, and most of Beauxbatons wanted nothing to do with us." "That is why we must continue with this program Minerva, to not only strengthen our bonds with all three schools, but to show the world that Hogwarts is not as bad as it seems. Minerva my dear, you'll having nothing to worry about. I have a feeling this will be a year to remember." Albus replied, his eyes twinkling just as madly as they did when he was alive, hidden mischief in voice.
The next day McGonagall called Grimmauld Place to speak to Sirius. "Minerva? What's with the early firecall?" he asked sleep still hanging onto his voice. "We have four students coming from other schools on an exchange student program started, and since there have been no offers and its such short noticed I was hoping if you'd house the students" she replied. "In other words, all of the other people you asked declined and I was your last option?" he yawned. "Exactly." she deadpanned. "Alright, I'll let break Remus and Harry know we're gaining four new guests for next month." Sirius sighed planning which rooms to use while figuring out how to tell Remus and Harry while thinking, 'Remus is not gonna be happy about this, especially with Teddy around.' Later on the day heexplained their situation to Harry and Remus, neither were happy about sharing a home with four strangers, but both helped Sirius prepare four rooms for the new students.
The month passed and the beginning of August had arrive and all four candidates sent letters to confirm their place as an exchange student for Hogwarts. Each new student packed their bags and money for their trip to Diagon Ally and new home for the next month. The Shimazus received a gold coin as a portkey, the Bijjus were given a feather, the d'Arcs were gifted an old scarf, and the Williams were supplied a glove. Grabbing the portkeys with their selected guardians, their bodies twisted and span, all had the sensation of their insides being sqwished together. Finally they arrived to their destination. Four pairs of intrigued eyes drank in their surroundings as their parents held onto their luggage.
Sirius walked towad the group of foreigners and greeted the parents as Harry took in the appearance of the odd looking actually had long silver hair and dark green eyes, the student next to her had light blond choppy hair, that popped out against his dark skin tone and brown hazel eyes. The other female student had long black hair and dark blue eyes and the last student had looked like an odd combination of the Weasleys and the Malfoys, with his dark red hair and gray eyes. Although he couldn't quite judge himself with his scared forehead and abnormally green eyes. Both Sirius and Harry decided to take an initiative and formally introduce themselves. "Well, welcome to England everyone, my name is Sirius Black and this is my godson Harry Potter, we and two others will be hosts to all of your children for this month." Sirius paused, waiting to see any reaction only to see blank faces in response.
The sliver hair girl and her father bowed, "It's nice to meet the people that will be taking care of my daughter, I am Hiroshi Shimazu, and this is my daughter, Hitomi, thank you for taking time to meet us." "It's nice to meet you all, I am Daiji Bijju and this is my mother, Nina" the dark skinned blond bowed with his mother bowing muttering a quite namaste. " 'ello, my name ez Liam d'Arc and diz ez my daughter, Anastasie" his daughter curtsied a polite smile on both their faces. "And we're the Williams! I'm Mason and this is my mom, Sarah- Ow!" yelping from the slight slap to his head, Mason looked at his mother who shook her head at her unruly child. Staring at the group both Harry and Sirius looked at the group wondering what they got themselves into.
