Hey guys, quick note here:

Just so you know this is my first crossover fan-fiction.

I've put a lot of effort into this story, and I really hope to continue with it, so please let me know what you think.

Hope you like it! :)

"The Ship of Dreams"

Harry Potter and Ron Weasley were sitting at a table inside the Leaky Cauldron. Ron was playing a game a wizards' chess against Seamus Finnegan and his partner Dean Thomas. Harry and Ron had almost bet every last sickle they had on this game, but it was for a very good reason. You see, the winner of this game would receive two tickets aboard the RMS Titanic. Despite the fact that these tickets were third-class, this maiden voyage was one for the history books, and neither of them planned on missing it.

"Ron, you had better know what you're doing," Harry hissed as Seamus took out his knight.

"Trust me, Harry. I'll have him after this move, Queen to E3!"

Dean and Seamus watched in horror as his Queen took out their King.

"Checkmate!" shouted Harry. "We're going to America, Ron!" he patted his best mate on the back.

"Oh, no you're not boys," the bartender pointed at the clock. "The ship leaves in five minutes."

Harry and Ron wasted no time. They quickly grabbed their bags and ran out the door, making their way towards the South Hampton Deck.

Upon arriving, the two boys handed over their tickets and gave up their bags for inspection. "Ah, no wands on the ship boys," said one of the crew members, "Too many muggles here to be messing with magic."

They looked at each other in horror, "Then what are we to do with them?" asked Harry.

"I'll have them sent back to your houses," he went to stick them inside a box filled with several other wands, "Is that going to be alright?"

Ron nodded his head, "Of course. We're not missing this ship after all we just went through," he laughed.

"Oh this ain't any old ship boys," the man tapped on the metal base, "This here is the 'Ship of Dreams'!"

Harry and Ron both laughed and smiled in agreement as they boarded the deck of the Titanic.

"Oh and also," the man added before they walked onto the main deck. Harry and Ron looked back at him expectantly, "Just so you know, once you step foot on her you'll find you're abilities to use magic will have been momentarily taken from you." The two former Gryffindor's gave him a quizzical and somewhat worried look. "Safety precautions provided by the Captain, nothing more," he reassured, "It'll come back shortly after your arrival over seas." After several moments, Harry and Ron decided to accept the terms that would prevent the exposure of their world to muggles and step foot onto the largest and grandest ship to date.

"God, this is the biggest boat I have ever seen!" said Ron in sheer amazement.

"It's not a boat, it's a ship," said a little girl with brown, curly hair. She appeared to be about seven and was obviously in third class by her state of dress.

"Right, you are," Harry laughed. "And what's your name?"

The girl smiled, "Cora," she extended her hand. Harry extended his and shook it. "Well, it's very nice to meet you Miss Cora. I'm Harry, and this here is Ron." Ron also shook Cora's hand.

"You too," she then turned around and tugged on her dad's shirt who was facing the opposite direction. "Daddy!" The man turned around and picked Cora up, "What is it, princess?"

"I want you to meet my new friends, Harry and Ron," she pointed at the two wizards. "Their in third class too!" she giggled.

"How did you know that?" asked Ron.

"Well it's kind of obvious…" she blushed.

"Cora, that is very impolite. Now apologize to these two men."

Harry raised his hand, "No, no it's quite alright," he laughed. "She's right."

The man lifted his hat, "Well it's nice to meet you," he smiled, "I'm Neville Longbottom."

"Pleasure," said Harry and Ron.

"Daddy, I want to go wave with the other people over there!"

Neville laughed, "Sure thing, sweetheart," Cora pulled him along with his hand. "Care to join us?"

Ron shrugged, "Why not?"

The four of them practically ran to the side railings to wave goodbye to those unfortunate enough to be left behind. (Or at least that's what they thought…)

Alright guys, so what do you think so far?

Fill me in on your thoughts so I'll know whether or not I should keep posting.

If I get about 3-5 or more reviews on this chapter, I definitely update ASAP :)
