Hello all! This is going to be my third fan fictions (throws confetti) man, there are not enough time in the day. Well, I figured I may as well write this one…I'm a sucker for crossovers what can I say, and I just love FMA/HP crossovers so I'm gonna write one! Now this fic is going to take place in the 4th year, the events that take place WILL be slightly altered in some way so that the FMA characters I'll be using can be…integrated into the story in an interesting way (laughs evilly). So please, read, enjoy, review, and eat sour punch straws!

Chapter One: Unexpected Invitation

It had been a good three months sense the Elric brothers had found a good solid lead on the Philosophers Stone but now, after getting a rather odd phone call from Central Head Quarters, they sat in a baffled state in the Central bound train. Edward Elric, the older brother and State Alchemist, sat staring out the window dazedly. Alphonse Elric, the younger brother obviously, sat across from him and was looking at his brother, if it weren't for the fact that he was a soul in a suit of armor he would have most definitely had a worried expression on his face.

"What do you think the lead is brother?" he asked, Edward gave him a dazed glance and shrugged his shoulders replying,

"I don't know Al, it could be anything…or the Colonel is just pulling our leg."

"Colonel Mustang wouldn't do that brother!" Al said shocked. Edward shrugged again and went back to staring out the window, he was curious as to what it was considering it was the first solid lead in months…so they said…

It wasn't long before the train pulled into Central Station; it was midmorning so the place wasn't crowded. The brothers got off the train and made their way to HQ, it was at least a twenty-minute walk from there. When they arrived there and made their way to Colonel Mustang's office Edward paused just outside the door,

"Hey Al…"

"Yes brother?"

"You know, I've got this strange feeling about this."

"Really?"

"Yeah…hm…"

Edward knocked on the large wooden door, someone from the inside said,

"Come in."

Edward opened the door and walked in closely followed by Alphonse; he walked up to the large desk in the back of the office. There was a man with short black hair and a smug look on his face, he was in his late twenties by the look of it. This was Colonel Roy Mustang, the Flame Alchemist and Edwards superior officer…and to some his rival. Colonel Mustang looked up and smirked,

"Good of you to show up FullMetal."

"Well, if you say you've got a solid lead on the Philosophers Stone then of coarse I'm going to show up Mustang. Now what is it?" Edward retorted slightly.

"Don't rush things now, it's good to see you, how are things?" Mustang continued, he was greatly enjoying the frustrated look Edward was getting but figured he'd best not push it to far…he really did have a solid lead, it was not only solid but it was strange.

"Fine, now tell me what this lead is or I'm leaving." Ed hissed. Mustang smirked again only this time taking a folder out of his desk, it was rather thick. Edward glanced at it with a curious look, the Colonel then took out an envelope.

"Don't get so worked up FullMetal, I've got it right here." Mustang placed a hand on the thick folder but handed the envelope to Edward, he took it and examined it.

"This is it?"

"Read the letter."

Edward looked down at the envelope again, the address was written in curly letters, and was sealed with a wax insignia. Opening the envelope and taking out the letter that was inside Edward read,

Dear, Colonel Roy Mustang

We happily invite three of your most skilled students to participate in the once in a lifetime Quadwizard Tournament. This tournament will be held on Dec. 15 at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. All of the information you need is on the separate pieces of paper provided with this letter. We hope to see you soon along with your selected students.

Yours Truly,

Albus Dumbledore

Headmaster

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Edward had to read it at least three more times before it actually sank in what he was reading, he then glanced up at Col. Mustang then back down at the letter saying,

"Is this some kind of joke?"

"As much as I'd like it to be FullMetal, it's not. In this file is everything you need to know on the subject, you are the first applicant." He replied.

"What!"

"Yes, you and your brother will be taking on this mission." The Colonel said with a slightly devious smile.

"What about the third person?" Al asked, he didn't fully like where this was going but if this was the lead he was talking about on the phone then he may as well go along with it.

"You'll meet them in England, you needn't worry Edward, this is a solid lead. It's rumored that there was a Philosophers Stone actually at the school but it was destroyed, maybe you can find information on it still." Mustang stated seeing the stunned look now on Edwards face.

"…Magic? There's no such thing…" Ed muttered

"Well, if they have a school for it then it must be real, but…that is for you to find out." Mustang said, turning his chair around to glance out the window behind his desk. Edward was still doubtful but it Philosophers Stone was really there then he figured it was better then nothing.

"When do we leave?" he finally asked.

"Three o'clock this afternoon," Mustang replied "oh and make sure you read everything in that file, don't want something bad to happen."

"What do you mean?" Ed asked.

"Just read the file FullMetal, you're dismissed." Mustang said turning to face Ed and Al once again; he had that smug look on his face again. The brothers turned and left the office, Edward reading the letter for the hundreth time and Alphonse carrying the large folder. When they got outside Alphonse asked,

"I wonder who the third person is going to be? And what did they mean by 'students'?"

"How should I know? Maybe they think we're apart of some school or something I dunno." Edward replied, he felt that this whole magic thing was really dumb but if it meant possibly finding a Philosophers Stone then he'd swallow it for the time being. Alphonse started to flip through the folder he was carrying when something caught his eye,

"Brother? What's this?" he held out two sheets of paper. Taking them Edward glanced down at them, raising an eye brow he said,

"Looks like…some sort of…thing…"

"Well yes but for what?" Al asked.

"I don't know Al, this is all a first for me so I don't know what we're dealing with." Edward shrugged.

"Do you think we'll need money?"

"Well, this letter says that everything we need to know has been sent to us so…I'm guessing that's what's in the folder." Ed said looking at it as if it had just insulted him.

"Oh, then I guess we'll have some reading to do on the train ride to England." Al said.

"This England, I've never heard of it have you?" Ed said trying to slightly change the subject.

"No, not that I can think of." Al replied. They made their way to the Central train station once again and bought their tickets, which they only just had enough for, and waited for the train. It wouldn't arrive for another two hours so they had to wait, Edward took this time to start reading through the folder, so did Alphonse. They had gotten through about half of it by the time the train arrived, getting up and finding their seats on the train the two brothers continued to wonder just what exactly they where getting themselves into.

-To Be Continued-

There we go, chapter one is done! Yey! I'm gonna have to dig through all my books to find my fourth Harry Potter book so's I can refresh my memory. I hope you enjoy this chapter, review please! I love reviews! And check out my other stories, all of which are in progress AND need to be up dated T.T my creativity levels and short attention span have a slight influence on how often I will be up dating because keeping up with three stories is, for me anyway, difficult and I may forget (short attention span! T.T).
