70)YOUR REACTIONS TO THE SERIES! (Submit your reaction in a review to the previous chapter) & Author's Harry Potter Obsession
This is my most ambitious project ever, the hugest crossover even (My personal opinion...hehe)
The planning alone took an ENTIRE month of initial planning, and then TWO DAYS OF THE FINAL PLAN!
xD
These are 2-in-1 chapters, so that means...
A mammoth 140 CHAPTERS!
ALL other fanfictions of mine are halted until the completion of The Harry Potter Olympics.
(Except Avengers and Avengers and Movies, maybe some one shots or stuff)
A chapter (2-in-1 chapters, remember) a day, means the project will take 70 days!
Which means this whole project SHOULD be finished by: Sunday 15th September
Please stick with it! Posting on Sundays gives me six days to write each chapter, ensuring they are of the highest quality, and even prepare the next chapter(s).
You are welcome to submit ideas for the closing ceremony and displays relating to the teams/a character.
It will be a huge ass long project, but I believe it shall be worth it!
On the sidelines will be another fanfiction, doing deleted reactions and stuff to keep you guys going!
I have so many nerves about this project, it's huge. 70 chapters? Over 2 months worth of work? A bonus fic on the sidelines based on it?
Feel free to share this opening on HP fanpages, send me links with their reactions so I can get more feedback, and we can get support!
I will need it...I've never written a story longer than 33 chapters, as you know!
*Nervous chuckle*
Are you happy with the posting schedule? Let me know! Personally I think you guys getting 70 2-in-1 chapters, a sideline fic, and spin-off one-shots, is good enough! xD
Song you need to listen to while reading along this chapter:
1) watch?v=GTXBLyp7_Dw&list=FLh36UtOki5DZvoUOBU-rLvA&index=47
I am too fucking excited for this xD this chapter the Avengers' display is the owls at the beginning!
I FEEL THE NEED TO POINT OUT THAT KATE AND PRINCE WILLIAM SEEM TO BE POTTERHEADS! THAT MY HOME IS THE HOME OF HARRY POTTER xD xD AND THAT IN THE LONDON OLYMPICS OPENING CEREMONY WE HAD A FUCKING GIANT VOLDEMORT! :D
AS OF NOW, WE BEGIN A 70 DAY HARRY POTTER/AVENGERS CROSSOVER PROJECT!
OVER 2 MONTHS!
140 CHAPTERS!
WILL YOU EMBARK ON THIS FANFICTION JOURNEY WITH ME? :D
Let the Games...BEGIN!
News stations across the world were buzzing with
excitement as hyped fans crowded into the London
Olympic Stadium, representatives of each station
picking people from the crowd and eagerly questioning
them. For today, on all Hallows Eve, it was time for the
very first Harry Potter Olympics! One reporter, wearing
Gryffindor robes, talked animatedly into a camera.
"Fans across the world wait eagerly for what is easily
the event of the year, or even the event of the century,
the greatest event of Modern times."
Another wore Voldemort robes and commented:
"In a mere few hours, we shall be witnessing the world's
first Harry Potter Olympics."
Many reporters got more and more riled up.
"The entire Harry Potter movie cast shall be attending."
"JK Rowling herself will be making an appearance."
"Real life, working Quidditch! I cannot wait to see that!"
Once the olympic stadium, outside fitted to look like the
towers of Hogwarts, was full to the brim, not a single
seat left, all the lights blacked out. The crowds gasped,
but cheered once a smaller replica of Hogwarts rose
from the middle of the arena, floodlights shining,
reflecting off of the stone walls. The applause was
suddenly silenced as small clouds floated round the
arena, drifting over their heads, before grouping
together above the castle. Yet more fluffy clouds
hovered over the arena, before they all started to snow,
delicate snowflakes drifting down, covering the arena
and replica Hogwarts in a snowy white blanket, except
for the track which ran round, now replaced by deep
water, shimmering just like the lake which led to the
castle. Boats bearing lanterns sailed onto the oval of
water, the first holding an conductor, the others, chained
together, carrying whole boatloads of musicians, each
one dressed in flowing Hogwarts robes, the conductor
wearing robes similar to Snapes. One boat bore the
robes of Slytherin, holding their heads up proudly,
instruments of musical magic at the ready. The one
behind wore the robes of Gryffindor, standing brave and
true. Behind them stood Hufflepuff, waving cheerily to
the crowd. And last but not least, the silent but smiling
Ravenclaws. Above the boat of the conductor hovered
the Hogwarts crest, the House Representative boats
with the house insignias shining overhead. The
glittering glow contrasted with the falling snow, the
beautiful picturesque scene rendering the once rabid
crowds silent. A spotlight shot down from a cloud,
shining on the conductor, who was none other than
Loki, his Snape-esque robes in shades of emerald
green, as opposed to pitch black. The crowds went to
cheer, but Loki, also projected on screens around the
top of the arena, raised his hand to silence them. He
flexed his fingers before raising his arms.
The soft piano sound of the beginning of 'Hedwig's
theme' echoed through the hall, nostalgia passing into
every person as the tune continued.
As it began to pick up in tempo, owls swooped in from
above, fluttering silently. A giant Hedwig perched on the
tallest tower of the Hogwarts replica.
After the owls, came the Avengers.
They followed the swarm, the number of owls increasing, white owls, tawny-coloured owls, even raven black ones. With a burst of flame, phoenixes joined the flight, the spiral column going high up into the night sky, a spectacle to behold. The tune reached its final note. As the final note was struck, the phoenixes burst into flaming fireworks, dancing over the audience in a shower of red, gold, and auburn sparkles. The owls vanished, becoming snow, falling softly with the smouldering, glowing sparks of phoenix flame. The giant Hedwig suddenly vanished, as if it were being sucked into a black hole which lay over the arena. As it imploded, a burst of silver sparks danced free, earning a deafening applause.
The news reporters went crazy, and the TV broadcast viewings and ratings rose by 50%. Half the population of the earth were revelling in the marvelous spectacle.
Loki sighed happily, before letting the back up conductor take his place. He vanished, earning another gasp from the enraptured audience, before teleporting, and delicately standing on one of the towers of the arena's towers, the same as the other Avengers. Clouds shone spotlights on each single member of the Avengers.
Hundreds of people suddenly swarmed into the arena from above, all on broomsticks and trailing coloured smoke.
They circled over the audience and boats, sparks and miniscule stars floating down in their wake.
The fliers converged into a spiraling column of constant movement.
Before forming the Hogwarts crest in completely accurate detail, floating proudly in the air.
By this point, Clint was hyperventilating with excitement. The screens directed the audience's attention to the boat entrance. Several more appeared, starting to go round the water-filled track.
There was silence.
Before a positive roarof applause.
Every single main cast member of the Harry Potter series were grouped into the boats, wearing their respective costumes/Hogwarts uniforms. Ray Fiennes even had the Voldemort make-up, applied by Loki so it truly looked as he did on screen. The cast went wild, waving their Hogwarts scarves, screaming and cheering. However, Loki, now viewed on the screen, motioned for silence as the boats drifted into formation, leaving a place for one more boat.
Which soon drifted out of the entrance.
Carrying the most important passenger it could.
JK Rowling herself.
Several people started crying, overcome with emotion. Without this woman, they would not be here. Harry Potter would not exist. Generations would not have had the childhood they enjoyed so deeply. They would not have been able to go on the journey, sticking with Harry until the very end. JK Rowling was actually wearing Hogwarts robes in her own personal size, and the red and yellow pasted audience members cheered, rising to their feet. Their beloved author was a Gryffindor, the same as them! She waved cheerily back, a little red-eyed herself. Loki floated, yes, floated, towards her, the spotlight following him, robes billowing behind him. The crowd became silent, returning to their seats. People behind television sets and cinema screens across the globe were in silence as the trickster gently took her hands, floating back to the Hogwarts castle, helping her to remain secure on one of the towers, before returning to his own.
"I thank you all for coming...and for the effort that has gone into this incredible night, and the nights to follow." JK spoke up.
The crowd cheered.
"I have been asked by the event planners to commerate the opening by reading the very first chapter of Harry Potter and the Sorceror's stone."
People rose to their feet and cheered.
"Mr and Mrs Dursley, of 4 Privet Drive, Little Whinging, Surrey, were perfectly normal..." she smiled.
As she read, no one spoke, not noticing the movie playing silently on the screens. This was the beginning of it all. The beginning of the shaping of an entire generation, and generations to come. This was the book that started it all.
Not one eye was dry.
Tears of nostalgia were shed in abundance.
Some people barely breathed the entire time. By the end of the first chapter, at the conclusion, there wasn't an initial applause. People remained silent for several moments, relishing in the revisit of a treasured childhood memory. But when they cheered, they roared with applause, the noise of the city outside drowned out entirely, everyone voicing their appreciation for the world of Harry Potter.
It took many moments to calm down the audience, but it was eventually done so by a sharp poke from a giant Molly Weasley. People laughed at the sight, but it did the job. As soon as the magical projection had vanished, the audience's attention was turned to the Avengers and JK Rowling.
All of a sudden, a giant, holographic, seemingly solid figure of Voldemort rose from the middle of the Hogwarts model, making people realise Ray Fiennes was missing. His size had been projected, and now he towered above them. The Avengers, JK Rowling, Harry Potter cast, and the orchestra raised their wands, and people found their own under their seats.
All 5 billion people watching, in the arena, behind a TV screen, behind a cinema screen, hunched over a phone or laptop, simultaneously raised their wands in a silent act of unity. The blue light that streamed from the tips of their wands near-blinded them all, but the sheer beauty kept them going. The blue light was mixed with miniscule stars, before forming their own patronus. Billions upon billions of animals swarmed to the London Arena, surrounding the huge Voldemort, and at the same time, paying homage to one of the most treasured series of all time.
Many raised their wands in respect of the fallen Marauders.
In respect of the death of Sirius Black...
The death of Dumbledore...
Dobby's passing...
Remus and Lupin...
Fred Weasley...
Snape...
People mourned the loss of beloved characters, family members they had lost, times long past, victims of war, murder, and the crimes of the harsh reality of humanity. All the horrible pieces of the reality jigsaw were broken as the world revelled in a single moment of true unity without conflict.
The patronus charms cleared, the huge Voldemort gone, in its place minature dragons and hippogriffs, along with a copy of each character, even those not featured in the movies, such as Peeves the Poltergeist and Winky the House Elf, graced the world with the sight of them.
One final spotlight lingered on Loki and JK Rowling.
"Ladies and Gentlemen..." Loki spoke loudly with the use of magic, also assisting JK.
The arena darkened.
"I officially declare..." JK smiled.
It went pitch black.
"THE HARRY POTTER OLYMPICS..." Loki continued, smirking.
A column of flame burst into the sky, tendrils flying over the audience, in a kaleidoscope of fantastical colour, the Hogwarts crest flying high over the arena.
"OPEN!" as soon as those words left Loki's mouth, the crowd went wild, almost going into a frenzy, the Avengers and security system barely able to contain the excitement that spread through the arena, and the other 5 billion people watching.
"Let the games..." all the cast, orchestra, Avengers, and JK Rowling, stood, raising their wands.
They released huge rocketing fireworks, mingling to form the shape of one huge dragon.
"...BEGIN!"
I hope this lived up to your excitement!
