Chapter 1
Bruce was sure this school will be the end of him.
He was going to Hogwarts in a few weeks. He will be surrounded by a bunch of other kids he could possibly end up hurting, without any potions to help him control his condition, for Seven years.
He was practically begging for something to go wrong.
There isn't a full moon tonight, sure, but with how long he will be staying, somebody is sure to figure out that he isn't normal.
He just hopes that nobody will get hurt.
As he passed by the shops in Diagon Alley, Bruce noticed a small group of people crowded in front of a window. When he walked up to see what they were looking at, he saw that it was a broomstick. It had a long brown shaft, with golden horn-like parts connected to the end with the straw. It had writing on it, too. The word "Firebolt" was etched into its side.
"Huh." Bruce thought. "I guess Quidditch is really popular here."
Bruce's thoughts were interrupted by a boy about his age standing next to him. "It's really cool, right?"
Bruce turned. "What?"
"The broom." The boy responded. "It's a Firebolt. It's one of the fastest brooms out there. It's pretty expensive, though. Most people can't afford it." The boy Grinned. "I hope I can learn how to play Quidditch. It sounds really interesting!"
Bruce blinked. He knew what Quidditch was, of course, but he didn't really know much about the sport.
"Do you like Quidditch?" The boy turned to Bruce. He noticed his confused look and asked "You know what Quidditch is, right?" His eyes suddenly widened. "Oh! Are you muggle born, too?"
Bruce grimaced. "Yeah… Sure." He wasn't. at least it was a good excuse for not knowing his way around.
"Do you want me to show you around? We can get school supplies together!" The boy's smile widened. "I'm Tony."
He needed to get out of here. He could get this kid hurt.
"Well you didn't say no, so technically you said yes!" Tony grabbed Bruce by the arm and started leading him into a shop called "Flourish and Blotts".
"Wait, what!?" Bruce started to panic. "I'm fine! It's fine! You don't need to show me around!"
"Why not?" Tony said, laughing. "Come on! It will be fun! I insist!"
Bruce groaned. Looks like he doesn't have much of a choice. He will just have to hope Tony will eventually leave. "Okay, fine."
"Ok! Great!" Tony started to look around. "So now we just need to find- Pepper! Rhodey!" Tony started waving at two kids his age who were purchasing books at the counter. The kids looked over at them. "Hi Tony!" one kid waved at them. The other smiled. "This is Pepper and Rhodey. They are my friends and we were getting things for school together."
"Pepper, Rhodey, this is… um…. What is your name? I don't think I ever asked you…"
"um… my name is B-Bruce" Bruce's mind was racing with thoughts about how badly this situation could end. Why did he agree to this?
"Are you ok?" Rhodey asked. "You look kind of scared."
"I'm fine." Bruce quickly pulled himself together. He wouldn't want them to figure out something was wrong.
Tony unknowingly saved him by cutting in and saying "So, guys. Where should we go next? We have most of our books, but we still need robes, cauldrons, and wands."
The group paused for a moment before Pepper said "Let's get our wands next. Ollivanders is nearby and cauldrons and robes are harder to carry around."
The rest of the group agreed and they exited the shop. While they were walking to Ollivanders, Pepper slowed down to walk next to Bruce.
"Let me guess." Pepper said, smiling. "Tony talked to you, and then all of a sudden you are roped into shopping with us."
Bruce gave a slight smile. "Pretty much."
Pepper laughed. "Tony might seem a little weird at first, but when you get to know him he will be a very good friend."
Friend?
"Really? I never thought of it that way."
"Hey guys! There it is! Ollivanders!" Tony exclaimed. He ran ahead into the shop.
Bruce thought it over. Were they really friends? It seemed too easy. And if they were, was that a good thing or a bad thing? If these kids stayed near him then they would probably get hurt by him.
"Hey, Bruce, are you coming?" Bruce looked up. He realized that he had stopped.
"Yeah. I'm coming!"
"Eleven inches, ash wood, unicorn hair, unyielding." Mr. Ollivander declared as he handed Steve his wand.
"Thank you, sir." Steve said as he took the wand from Mr. Ollivander.
When he left the shop, his friend Bucky was waiting for him outside.
"What did you get?" Bucky asked eagerly.
"Ash wood with unicorn hair." Steve said, grinning. "I can't believe how close we actually are to Hogwarts." Bucky was smiling too.
Bucky and Steve have been looking forward to going to Hogwarts for as long as they can remember. When they were together, they would always talk about what houses they would be sorted into, was it hard to learn new magical skills, what subjects they most looked forward to, and other things like that. And now that they were actually going, Both of the boys were very excited.
"We just need robes now, right?"
"Yeah."
"Let's go, then" Steve and Bucky started to walk towards the robe shop.
They were almost to the shop when they were stopped.
"Excuse me, but do you know where the wand shop is?"
Steve and Bucky turned. The person who spoke to them was a boy with blonde hair. Standing next to him was a girl with red hair. Both of the kids looked like they were first years.
Steve answered the boy. "The wand shop? If you mean Ollivanders, it's just down the street. If you keep going, you should see it."
"Are you first years too?" Bucky asked the boy.
"Yeah. I'm Clint, and this is Natasha." The boy gestured to the girl. "Who are you guys?"
"I'm Steve, and this is Bucky." Steve smiled "I guess we will be seeing you two on the train then."
"I guess we will." Clint smiled.
After Clint and Natasha left for Ollivanders, Bucky turned to Steve and laughed.
"Did you see that girl, Natasha? I swear, she looked like she was planning our deaths or something."
"What do you mean?"
"She was just staring at us! She didn't even say anything!"
Steve laughed. "Lets' just get our robes for now, ok?"
The two boys opened the door to the shop and stepped in.
As Bucky looked through the grey robes, he asked Steve "So, these robes change color when you get sorted, right?"
"Yeah." Steve nodded.
Bucky hesitated a moment before asking "What if we get sorted into different houses?"
"Well, that means we wouldn't have the same classes as often." Steve replied. "But we could still get chances to talk with each other when we aren't in class."
Bucky wasn't fully reassured, but smiled anyway.
After the boys had both paid for their robes, they left the shop and gathered all of the supplies they bought.
"Well, I think we are done here."
"I guess so."
"So, will we meet on the train, then?"
"Yeah. Bye, Bucky."
"Bye Steve." Bucky waved at Steve before leaving to be apparated to his home.
Steve had to admit he was a bit scared that something might go wrong when he was at Hogwarts, and that it wouldn't be as great as he thought it would be. But still, he was excited to be a wizard.
A.N.
So, that was the first chapter! I hope you guys like it!
The way this fanfiction will work is that I will put in a couple of chapters to start the story, then a list giving you the houses of all the characters. After that, this Fanfiction will basically be a bunch of oneshots in a Hogwarts AU.
Thank you, and please review!
