A Greater Threat
So there was Harry, moping about as usual. It had been only weeks since the tragic death of Cedric Diggory and the return of Voldemort. After his show trial at the Ministry of Magic, Harry was especially melancholy when he arrived at Hogwarts. He had been having intense nightmares the last few nights, so he left Gryphinndor dormitories to sit in solitude in the Astronomy Tower. He looked out at the night sky. It was alive with stars and the moon shined bright. Harry wondered if there was life beyond what he had come to know on Earth.
He didn't have to ponder long.
He heard a crackling noise behind him, like someone turning on an old TV. He whipped his wand out and spun around to see a vortex of lightning in front of him. He pointed his wand at it as two very strange figures stepped through.
They were both men. One was bold and wore what appeared to be a purple and green robotic suit. The second was also bald, but his skin was white beyond anything Harry had seen and he was covered in red tattoos.
"Who are you, what do you want?" Harry demanded to know.
The portal disappeared behind them.
"Are you Harry Potter?" asked robotic suit.
"…yes. Who are you?"
The tattooed man ignored him and spoke to robotic suit.
"Shang Tsung was right, he is extraordinary," he said. "I can already sense the vastness of his magical powers. He will be a great asset."
"Harry," battle suit stepped forward and spoke in a disarming manner. "My name is Lex Luthor. Perhaps you've heard of me."
"Yes. Everybody knows who you are. You run LexCorp. In America."
"That's right."
"How do you know about me? Why are you here at Hogwarts? Who is that man? Are you Death Eaters?"
Tattooed man laughed.
"The Death Eaters are a joke compared to my power! Voldemort himself could not destroy me!"
"Harry, allow me to introduce you to my associate, Quan Chi. Together we form a sort of deadly alliance, for lack of a better term."
"Who is Shang Tsung?"
"He is a partner of ours. We are working together to help rid the world of a few dangerous menaces."
"What do you want from me?"
"Simple, we want you and your friends-"
"What do you know of my friends?!"
"A great deal. We would like you, Ron and Ginny Weasley, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom and Luna Lovegood to join us in a fight against a threat that is even greater than Voldemort."
"What could possibly be a greater threat than Voldemort?"
Lex smiled.
"His name is Superman…"
