"Mixed Nuts or A Year To Remember"
The sun blazed down on a red headed pig-tailed girl that was supporting herself upon taped up broken crutches.
"Why me? What did I do to deserve this?" the youth groaned. Once again she was subjected to a wild chase, various attempted marriage schemes, a panty crazed ompa-loompa, and the end of Akane's mallet and it wasn't even noon yet.
"Ah, why did she have to throw that water, stupid tom-boy. I need a vacation." She grumbled. Suddenly she heard a flutter of wings and a note dropped to his feet.
"What the?" he said out loud as he picked up the letter. It was addressed to her. She opened it and read it.
"What this can't be right, on the other hand..." he smiled evilly.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Only if Riho and Guni can stay with me." Announced the young man with long purple hair. He was bargaining with the older gentleman sitting at the desk.
"Okay, Okay, have it your way, they can stay in your quarters. Mind you though we'll have to subtract a little from your pay." The silver bearded man smiled. The purple haired man returned the smile.
"Deal." The young man stood up and shook the older mans hand.
"So when do I start Dumbledore."
"As soon as possible Mr. Shido." Stated the old wizard.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey Spike look here." Jet was starring at a piece of parchment that suddenly appeared before him.
"Ooooh, can Ed see."
"Just hold on a second Ed." Spike picked up the paper and read. His eyes grew wide.
"What is it?" asked Jet.
"I have no clue." Spike said as he continued examining the paper.
"Hey what's up with you." Asked Faye as she walked into the room. She went to stand over Spike's shoulder to see what he was reading.
"That's a joke right?" she asked.
"I don't know, but look at how much money their offering if we except." Spike said as he handed over the paper to Jet.
"Whoa, we couldn't make that much even if we worked around the clock for years." He exclaimed. Suddenly they heard Ed squeal with delight. She was lying on her back clapping her feet.
"Ed got letter too." She giggled.
~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey Shinji, what's that?" Misato was pointing to a small piece of parchment upon the table.
"I don't know?" the black haired boy named Shinji replied. Misato too a swig of beer as Shinji read the letter.
"I don't think you're going to believe this." She looked up to what Shinji was talking about and hiccupped.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"What the hell is going on here!" screamed Duo who now had a room full of letters all addressed to the same place. He read one. Same as the first ones he had gotten. Some one really has an odd sense of humor he thought as he fell back upon the pile.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Lucifer and Tora lay with their heads hanging off the front of the sofa and their legs over the back. The TV was on and everyone else was asleep. Suddenly a letter fell on top of Lucifer's face. Tora laughed. Then another one appeared and fell straight into her mouth. It was Lucifer's turn to laugh.
"Shut up." She groaned as she read hers. Two crystals fell out of the note. One for each of them. She smiled. These were rare indeed. They would allow for them to walk in the daylight and not have to worry about getting burned.
"Ooooohhhh." She cooed as she watched Lucifer read his.
"Shall we?" he asked.
"Yes, definitely, lets." She smiled evilly. The twins of darkness were going to Hogwarts.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Ranma was once more himself, a boy. He was ecstatic. He was going away for a full year. No more Kuno, no more fiancé's, no more pops, life couldn't get any better.
"Father look I got his letter today. I was excepted into this school called Hogwarts!" he heard Akane scream. He suddenly faltered to the floor.
"Why Me?"
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kings cross was unusually busy today. Hogwarts students were trying to slip through the barrier without being noticed and many didn't know where the barrier even was. The twins Lucifer and Tora made their way through the crowed. They knew where they were going they could sense where the magic was strongest. They noticed a large group made up of a witch and various other oddly dressed people. They didn't seem like they knew much about magic for fear was upon their faces.
"Fuck how the hell did you do that!" came a young boy with braided hair wearing a priest outfit.
"I think I've gone insane." Said a scantly clothed purple haired lady.
"You and me both." Moaned a tall curly haired man.
"I can't believe this." Moaned a black haired lady with a red jacket.
"Miss Misato were are we?" asked a sickly looking boy.
"wheeeee. can Ed do that again." Yelled a girl in a white tank top and goggles.
"No!" a bald headed man snapped.
"I've explained this all before people. You're now at the station. Go through that wall and get on the train. You'll stuff will be waiting for you when you get to the school. Young ones if you want to learn you'll do it and the rest of you. Well it's either get on that train and get paid or stay here and never get back home." The lady grumbled as she disappeared.
Tora went through the barrier before she could hear their decision. On the other side was a black haired boy running away from some girl with a mallet. Oooh this was going to be an interesting year she thought.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Harry had finally found Hermione and Ron upon the train.
"Hey did you see that bunch out there?" he asked.
"Yeah, heard that Dumbledore hired some guards to help guard the school since you know who is back in power." Ron explained.
"Yeah, in the Daily Prophet I saw an article that said there the top of their league. Also I heard were getting some new students that under normal circumstances would never be accepted in to Hogwarts. They said that all magical hands should be trained if He Who Must Not Be Named is to be defeated." Hermione told them.
"What do you mean not under normal circumstances?" Harry asked
"Don't know they didn't say." She replied.
"Strange?" Ron said as he raised his eyebrow.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Luci, Lucifer, where are you?" sang out Tora. She had gotten separated from her brother after they got on the train. She walked into a compartment that held a black haired boy with a kung fu jacket and a young girl with short black hair on one seat. The boy seemed to be unconscious. The other seat contained the young woman who had on a red jacket and the sickly looking boy.
"Hey have you seen a male me walking around, black hair?" she questioned. They looked at her as if she was nuts. The shorthaired girl raised an eyebrow at this.
"My brother, if you see him tell him I want my hat back." She explained and then she shut the door.
"Lucifer I know you can hear me get back hear RIGHT NOW!" she screamed. A few students who were walking around stared at her. She felt someone run past her.
"Looking for something sis." He laughed as he swung the hat around his finger.
"Give it back or you die." She smirked.
"Gotta catch me first." He laughed as he retreated.
"Luci get back here!" She screamed as she ran after him. They leapt and tumbled all around the train. Playfully toying with each other. Lucifer trying not to get caught and Tora not wanting to catch him just yet. They were having too much fun. Suddenly Tora leapt pileing into Lucifer. She sent them both sprawling into an open compartment.
"Wheeee, that was fun." She smiled as she tossed her cap back on her head.
"Get off of me!" Yelled Lucifer. Tora looked down, she was sitting on his chest.
"Oooooh, pined ya! What do I win?"
"Umm, your hat, now get off."
"Excuse us." Came a voice. Tora looked up to see a bushy hair girl along with two boys who were all starring at them.
"Hi, um Hi?" she was dumfounded.
"Get off me Tora before I blast you!" cried Lucifer.
"Aww, poor Lucifer." She mocked as she stood up.
"Hi there, the names Tora, and this is my rude twin Lucifer. Pleasure to meet you." She put out her hand. They each took it introducing their selves. Lucifer then stood up and introduced himself politly. They all sat back down. Tora felt like relaxing and this was as good a place as any.
"So you two new hear?" asked Ron.
"Yeah, but since we already know a lot of stuff they're pushing us up to 5th year." Tora answered.
"Never even dreamt of being schooled before. Our kind is well not very welcomed you might say." Lucifer grumbled. Tora punched him in the ribs. They had agreed not to say anything unless they had too. Wizards weren't very fond of vampires even if they were the ancient 13.
"Your kind?" Harry asked.
"Well, well, look at the time we better be off." Tora yelled back as she ran out the door dragging her brother. Weird Ron mouthed.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Duo was walking around the train. He had never been in such a place before. Weird. The witch or whatever she was, had dragged him here without caring what he thought about it. For his, own good she said. Phah, how would she know. But a warm place to stay and food sounded awful nice to him. He had been without those for a while now. He suddenly bumped into someone.
"Sorry." Came a scared sounding voice. "Hey weren't you with us when that witch brought all of us here?" asked Duo.
"Hm, yes. The names Shinji Ikari." He said a little more confident.
"I'm Duo Maxwell, so where do you come from?" he asked leaning against the wall with his arms behind his head.
"I come from Tokyo 3. I'm an Eva Pilot." He explained.
" A pilot you say. I myself pilot a thing called a Gundum. You know a mecha." Shinji nodded showing he understood.
"Things are so strange here."
"Damn straight, magic who knew." Duo answered.
"We shouldn't be talking about this here. The headmaster said not to let everyone know right away. It might start a panic. There already afraid of this Voldemort guy, if they knew the real seriousness of what's going on." Shinji let his words hang.
" Fine, Hey did you see that girl that said she was looking for herself?"
"Yeah she came into our compartment, I think she said she was looking for her brother."
"Well she didn't go that far when she asked me. She asked if I had seen her run by but with black hair, then she asked me to tell the black haired her she was going to kill him. I think these people seriously need a mental evaluation."
"No doubt there Duo." ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Ranma finally awoke as they pulled into the Hogsmede station.
"Wake up stupid were here." Hissed Akane.
"Why did you have to hit so hard." He cried as he rubbed the lump on his head.
"Well if you weren't being such a jerk I wouldn't have hit you then would I."
"What" All I said is that ..." he noticed Akane's face starting to twitch. He decided not to finish what he was going to say.
"Forget it." He mumbled as they made their way off the train. He didn't feel like being knocked out again. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Oooooohhh, Edward likes." Cooed the excited teen.
"Cool it Ed, we don't need to go loosing you." Spike called out smoothly to her. The only reason he had agreed to this job was the large sum of money he would receive at the end of this whole nightmare.
"Quaint little place isn't it." Faye said snidely.
"Well just think about the sum we all get at the end." Spoke Jet.
"At least the tyke is happy." Spike watched as Ed ran all about excited about going to a real castle and studying magic.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Everyone had finally arrived at the castle. Added to the usually odd décor was a large ship of some sorts that was parked on the front lawn. Bebop was its name. Harry thought maybe it had to do with Voldemort and the new security measures. Everyone stared as they entered the castle.
They entered the castle where soon the sorting started to take place. Harry sat and watched as everyone was sorted. Oddly though there were a few new students that were sorted into Gryffindor that claimed to be fifth years. They said they were taught over the summer so they could be placed in the right class. Harry watched as an Edward Wong Hau Pepela Tivrusky the 4th was sorted once more into Gryffindor. An odd name he thought.
The feast begun and everyone was enjoying their selves. Harry suddenly received a jab in the ribs from Hermione.
"Hey look at the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Also look at the brown haired girl next to him. Do you see what I see?"
"What are you talking about." He whispered harshly. She rolled her eyes and sighed.
"The two twins down there at the end of the table, they have the same exact crystal necklace." She hissed.
"So they probably shop at the same store." Answered Ron.
"He comes from Japan and I think those two come from America, so I don't think so." She said as she shook her head.
"It's nothing Hermione, just forget it." Harry reassured her. Suddenly he jumped when he heard a loud explosion come from where the two new twins sat.
"Sorry, too much Juice in that one!" she called out to everyone. It looked like she was toying with some sort of small explosives. "Really one would think you would learn by now." Lucifer said in his usual you know better tone.
"Stuff it Luci Baby!"
"Don't call me that, my names L-U-C-I-F-E-R." he stressed each syllable.
"Whatever, Luci." Harry saw her smile wickedly at him. No doubt in his mind they were siblings.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The feast had ended and everyone headed to their dorm or ship as the case may be. Everyone was tired and was ready for bed. Harry and Ron had just went into their dorm when they noticed everyone arguing in the corner of the room. They went over to check it out.
"Hey what's going on he?" Ron asked. As they drew closer they saw what was wrong. Two beds had been pushed into the corner of the room and quilts were thrown upon it forming a sort of nest. There in the middle of it were two familiar huddled figures seemingly half asleep.
"Hey why is she in here? The girls room is down the other direction." Argued Ron.
"Said she didn't care and to leave them alone." Answered Fred seemingly annoyed.
"Were twins and we don't even sleep like that." Argued George.
"Yeah, she said we have nothing she hasn't already seen and told us to go fly a kite. Bloody rude I say." Replied Fred.
"Just throw her out." Suggested Ranma. He approached the bed to demonstrate when Tora suddenly turned over and hissed viciously before rolling over and seemingly falling back to sleep. He was so surprised he fell backward landing on his butt.
"What the hell?" he cried. Tora suddenly waved him away as if to dismiss him. Lucifer sat up and looked at them yawning.
"If I could get away sleeping in the girls dorm I would, sorry but you'll have to put up with her. I wouldn't try that again though, you might not live next time. She can get a bit testy when she's like this." He then rolled over and fell back to sleep. After that everyone figured it might be healthier to stay out of her way for the time being.
Next morning all the Gryffindor girls kept talking about the missing Tora.
"She was in our dorm." Muttered Harry unhappily. "What!" Hermione exclaimed.
"Yeah, nearly tried to kill Ranma." Snorted Ron.
"Ah, I see your talking about my dear sisters theatrics. She can be quite a hand full at times." It was Lucifer. Harry and Ron had jumped. They hadn't heard him sit down.
"She very rarely leaves my side. We are a very notorious duo." He smiled his suave alluring smile.
"How so?" asked Hermione. Just then Tora came dancing in singing her favorite rock song. With that Lucifer stood up waving her near.
"Oh, you'll see." Tora slumped heavily in the chair still singing her song. Neither of them seemed to eat Hermione took notice.
"Hello Luci baby." She chimed.
"and again with the Luci baby." Lucifer sighed in disgust.
"Here from Dumbledore." She tossed her brother a flask, which he looked at closely than smiled.
"Seems to think of everything that man." Lucifer smiled as he took a swig.
"Yes, he does." Tora replied.
"What's in there?" asked Ron.
"Oh a very special treat, lets go shall we dear sister."
"Yes, lets." Replied Tora once more.
"They are a strange pair." Harry responded.
They watched as the new guards walk up to a special table that had been set up next to the teacher's table. They filtered in here and there settling down to enjoy their meal. Suddenly Misato's voice rang out above the hall's noise.
"What do you mean there's no beer, I must have beer if I'm going to function properly!"
"Oh, boy." Shinji muttered.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Defense Against the Dark Arts Class, that was where all the fifth years were. They all turned as their new teacher walked in with his long purple ponytail in tow wearing a white shirt with a gray vest and pants. Very unwizardly the class thought. They watched as a small green urban fairy spirit two and fro behind the man.
"Hello there. As you know I will be you new teacher Shido Tatsuhiko. I hope I can teach you many things this year that will aid you further on in your lives. We shall study everything from the breed to dark magic and even the ancients such as the oldest Vampire Rafe. As you all know he has been seen very few times and not in over 300 years. Um Yes Miss Tora?" he looked up to find the young girl waving her hand excitedly. Maybe she had to use the bathroom he thought. She seemed awful anxious. She spoke awfully cheerfully.
"I saw him, he was in our apartment about a week ago." She smiled.
"Um, somehow I doubt that Miss. Tora." He was about to go back to teaching when her hand went up again.
"I can prove it Mr.Shido." she chimed.
"Okay then, amuse us." He smiled. She was an overly confident thing. What made her think she could get the mighty Rafe to come here? He watched her closely; she seemed to be concentrating really hard.
"Hey, what do you mean your busy, get down here you doof." Tora screamed. Who was she talking to the Harry thought? Had this girl truly gone insane? He noticed Lucifer was cracking up hysterically.
"Aw how rude."
"Hey, that's it I'm coming up there you dork!" suddenly she was gone. The class stared dumbfounded. Suddenly she popped back into view dragging a boy with unnaturally red hair to the front of the class. He had on only a bath towel. He was screaming for she had him by the earring pulling it. By this time Lucifer had fallen out of his chair in hysterics.
"For Gods sakes girl let me put on some clothes!" the boy screamed. Suddenly he was dressed in lovely robes of black and red.
"Your lucky I don't kill.. Okay why do we have an audience?" he asked just noticing the class.
"You're in the DADA class silly." She jumped on his back almost sending him off balance. Shido stared not knowing to believe in what he was seeing
"Um, excuse me but who are you." He asked. Rafe raised an eyebrow.
"If you must know the name's Rafe and this girl hear enjoys driving me up a wall." He growled as the girl started to pull his cheeks.
"I do, that's so wonderful." She sang sweetly. Lucifer finally got off the floor but he was still laughing.
"Where's that damn Kyo, I thought he said he was going to try to keep you two in line." Rafe yelled.
"He's at the apartment silly. We are on our own for now." Tora sang again happily. Shido and the class just stared. One of the most powerful Vampires ever was being pushed around by this young girl. It was unbelievable. Rafe turned to Shido.
"God help you, these two are even too much for me. Lucifer, try not to wreak havoc here for a change." He pleaded
"I can't promise you anything, you know that." Her remarked snidely Rafe rolled his eyes
"Oh well, I tried." He bowed and suddenly vanished.
"Hey come back here you coward!" Tora yelled. He spoke to her telepathically like they always did.
"Oh how rude." She said once more.
"How the hell do you know HIM!" Shido said a little louder than he meant to.
"Just do unfortunately." Was all she said as she skipped back to her seat.
"I have a feeling this is going to be a long year." Guni sighed as she floated above his head.
"I think you're right." Shido sighed as he slumped into his desk chair holding his head.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey look there." Whispered Harry. It was lunch and Faye one of the guards that was on duty had just walked by the teachers table.
"Look at Snape, he's checking her out." He almost laughed. Could Snape actually love someone?
"Well who wouldn't. Look at those clothes she's wearing, and that body." Ron practically drooled.
"Really you two." Hissed Hermione. "Hey weren't you the one oogling over Professor Shido in DADA class today?" Ron chuckled.
"Hmph, no, I was trying to learn unlike you two." She snapped. She was lying. Her cheeks suddenly turned bright red.
"Yeah right." Murmured Ron.
"An Eva would cream a Gundum!" yelled Shinji from the end of the table.
"Yeah right! My gundum would massacre you're Eva anyday!" came Duo. They looked around to see everyone starring at them. They laughed nervously before sitting back down.
"What was all that about?" asked Hermione.
"I don't know what's a Eva? Ron asked. Harry just shrugged his shoulders.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Baka Ranma!" Rang Akane's voice over the Gryffindor's common room.
"Hey I was just giving you a suggestion!" he yelled as he dodged the mallet. A table was suddenly shattered as the large mallet went through it.
"Die!" Akane screamed.
"Look, your cooking is poison enough what makes you believe your potions aren't deadly too?" He jumped once more out of the way.
"All you have to do is taste it you jerk!" she growled.
"I'm too young to die!" he yelled back. Tora, Lucifer and Duo were cheering them on.
"Yeah sock it too him Akane, I want to see some blood!" chimed Lucifer.
"Hit him, hit him damn it!" screamed Tora.
"This is so cool, it's like a real life whack-a-mole game." Cheered Duo.
"Um, I don't think you're supposed to be doing that?" sighed Shinji.
"Ooooh, Ed wants to try." Edward cooed. Suddenly Ranma was slammed against the wall by the mallet.
"Serves you right." She roared as she walked away. "Awww, I want more." Sighed Ed. Harry, Ron and Hermione starred along with the rest of the students at the scene that had just unraveled.
"You don't think they recruited them from a mental hospital do you?" Ron asked.
"Anything's possible." Harry answered as he shrugged his shoulders.
"There's something wrong with them?" Hermione whispered. Harry and Ron turned to look at her.
"Well no duh." Ron answered sarcastically.
"No I mean, the girl. She can apparate and she has never taken the test. I mean it should be impossible fore someone so young. And they happen to know one of the strongest vampires ever. The two boys next to them talk about Eva's and Gundum's whatever they are and Ed well Ed's Ed in any case. She has some of the strangest hi-tech computer equipment though. Stuff I have never heard of." She sat examining the group of students.
"Well they did say they were students that would never of been taught before." Ron answered.
"Yeah, but I think were dealing with more than muggle's and wizards here. I wonder." and with that she exited the common room no doubt heading for the library.
"I like pie!" screamed Ed.
"Um, I think our theory is probably closer to the truth." Ron snorted. Harry nodded starring at the group.
"Somehow I think your right."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay, now you have to be very careful when approaching these guys. They can be very violent if you rush them." Hagrid was holding a leash that belonged to a creature that looked like a cross between a lion and a reptile. The creature let out a roar and everyone backed away.
"He's just saying hello, isn't it cute." He cooed as he scratched the creature's chin. Suddenly Tora ran forward brazenly hugging the creature, which now looked like it was going to wet itself with fright.
"It's so cuuuuutee." She sang. Hagrid looked in disbelief.
"Well never seen that before."
"Aw, who's a cute little scaly lion." She said as she gave it a nooggie. Every one starred in disbelief. How could she scare a creature like that? Suddenly a louder noise distracted them. It had come from the lake.
Everyone looked over across the lake. Standing in the water was a huge creature that looked sort of humanoid in a sense. It had a white pointed face and a black shiny body. It was just as large as the castle looming viciously as if waiting for something.
"What the bloody hell!" yelled Hagrid as he starred at the creature. He had never seen anything like it before.
"Oh, no, it's and Angel." Shinji said fearfully.
"A what?" Harry asked. Just then Professor McGonagall ran out of the castle.
"Oh my." She yelled as she blasted it with some magic. Nothing happened. She stood with her wand outstretched. Soon Snape ran out yelling a curse. Green light flew from his wand and it still had no effect.
"Professor if I had my Eva I could deal with it!" Shinji cried out to her. Misato ran out of the castle with fear upon her face.
"No way we don't have a power source." She screamed. The Angel started to move.
"Professor can you bring my Gundum here like you did the ship?" asked Duo.
"Let me give it a try." She raised her wand and yelled a spell. Suddenly an Eva and Duo's Gundum dropped out of the sky. The students all backed up confused to what was going on. They had never seen such things.
"We can use magic to power the Eva. Shinji can you handle it?" The Professor asked. Suddenly two black winged creatures lifted from the ground and roared past. She turned to see Tora and Lucifer flying towards the creature. With that the two pilots jumped in their mecha's and ran after them. Spike and Faye by this time noticed what was going on and took off in their ships to try and destroy this creature.
The two mecha's prepared to destroy their target when they noticed something was wrong. The Angel seemed to be trying to buck something off.
"What the hell?" asked Duo starring.
"Look it's Tora!" yelled Shinji. There on the back of the creatures neck was the young girl who was kicking it and yelling.
"Ye ha, ride em cowboy!"
"Is' she crazy!" yelled Duo.
"Do you have to ask?" It was Lucifer. Duo turned to see him sitting on the Gundam's shoulder with his wings folded. He waved.
"Hey were trying to kill this thing not play with it." Spike, he wanted that thing dead. Any threat he killed meant a bonus and he wanted it bad.
"Aw, you're no fun." And with that she produced a sword and stabbed it deep into the creature's head. It suddenly stopped. She then released a great energy blast that traveled through the sword electrocuting the thing. She took to the air as the thing crumbled beneath the water.
"Clean up on isle 12!" she giggled pleased with herself.
"What the?" yelled Fay in disbelief. This kid just took her bonus.
"How did?' Shinji said in his cockpit. Misato said similar word from the ground. Duo starred dumfounded. Tora gave the victory sign as she danced in the air giggling. The student's mouths were wide open. Only Hermione spoke.
"See, I told you they weren't normal." She sneered.
"Uh, yeah." Harry just starred in shock. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Voldemort is growing stronger I fear." Dumbledore sighed. They figured he must have brought that creature here to destroy the castle.
"We need to be more careful, I don't think he'll send another one though, he'll try something different next time I'm afraid."
"And you expect this chaotic bunch to stop him!" yelled Misato.
"Why yes Miss. Katsuragi, you all are the top of your game in your worlds. I have complete faith in you all." He smiled. Tora raised her hand.
"Yes?"
"Um, I hope you don't mind but can out fledglings come I would like that and they could help." She said sweetly and with more sanity than she had spoken with in weeks.
"What's a fledgling?" asked Jet. Spike shrugged. He didn't know
"You really think they could help?" he asked.
"Yes, no doubt." Smiled Lucifer.
"Send for them then. Edward. We have invited you here for your astounding computer knowledge, as you know. Can you search the nets of the different worlds. I'll provide the magic needed to hook up between the dimensions. We need to find out any information we can on Voldemorts plans."
"Yep, didly doo, already on it." She flipped her goggles down and started giggling and rambling insanely.
"Good, lets all get some rest it's late." Dumble said as he opened the door for them to leave.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
They couldn't hide it now. Everyone knew something big was going on. At breakfast everyone tried to explain to those who asked them without giving away all their secrets, a really tough job. Tora and Lucifer weren't seen until their first classes where Hermione constantly badgered them for explanations. She constantly sent them notes which they returned with little fanged chibi pictures on them.
"What the?" Hermione said out loud.
"That'll be ten points Miss. Granger." Proffessor Mcgonagall yelled.
"Sorry" she answered. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Lunch time. Tora, Lucifer, and Ed were all sitting around a computer that seemed to be created out of light. Harry, Ron and Hermione wandered over and sat close by.
"So what the hell are you two?" asked Ron. Lucifer smiled as he took out his flask and started unscrewing the top.
"What do you think we are?" he asked.
"Some sort of Dark Angels?" guessed Hermione.
"Wrongy mundo." Chimed Ed. Lucifer poured the red contents of his flask into a goblet for them to see. He took a short savoring sip. When he smiled a sharp delicate fang slipped from beneath his lip.
"What's that?" Harry asked pointing to the goblet. Ron was transfixed on Lucifers fangs. Harry didn't seem to notice.
"Blood." Lucifer stated matter of factly as he swirled it around like a fine wine before taking another sip.
"Vampire!" yelled Ron almost falling back scared.
"Now you've got it my friend. Don't worry though were being properly fed. No live feeds for now." He teased
"But the wings?" Hermione asked but she didn't receive a reply. Tora squealed in delight, Ed had broken into the Nerv Headquarters Web site.
"Hey Luci look here you can even see footage of the apartments where Shinji stayed. You want a look?" she asked. Harry and his two friends gathered around to see along with Lucifer. Edward tapped the screen and a mini movie opened up. It showed a red headed girl running after Shinji screaming it was always his fault while a drunk Misato sang in the background. Suddenly a large penguin walked by drinking a beer as well.
"Aw, I miss that guy." It was Misato. She must of saw it as she walked by. She didn't stop though.
"Man and I thought our place was crazy." commented Ron.
"Hey you haven't even seen crazy. Ed bring up my web page." Tora said proudly.
"Right, ooooh wheeeee!" sang Ed as she typed frantically.
"There."
"Bring up my web cam from two weeks before school started."
"Okay Dokay" She tapped the screen and a mini movie suddenly appeared. "Higher" "I'll fall" came Kyo's voice. Lucifer was trying to teach him to properly levitate. "No you won't" "Yes I will." "Higher" "No" "Higher" at the same time they spotted the infamous Kane rushing at Tora with two daggers seemingly trying to kill her while she fended him off with her own pair. Fighting and kicking with incredible speed they fought. It almost seemed as if Tora was merely playing with him. "Die Asshole!" she screamed, yet not real seriously as she kicked him in the groin. The boys watching the movie groaned at this. They watched as Kane fell behind the couch groaning. Just then they watched as Kyo fell hitting his head upon the hard wood floor. He had fallen from a long ways up groaning as he rubbed his head.
"Hey, what do you know, you fell." Said an amazed Lucifer.
"No Shit!" yelled a mad Kyo. Suddenly they took notice to a black and red haired girl hanging upside down like a bat from a bar hanging from the ceiling.
"Can I eat this?" she was holding up a penny.
"NO!" everyone screamed in unison. She seemed to be a little hurt but it was for her own good she didn't eat the penny. Suddenly Rafe appeared along with some other odd looking creature. That's when the movie ended.
"Insanity galore baby Yeah!" yelled Tora. Ed laughed too.
"Okay you got me, your place is the most chaotic." Ron said still staring at the screen.
"That was a slow day, you should see us on a chaotic one." Groaned Lucifer.
" That's not chaotic!" Hermione cried out in disbelief. Could things of gotten any weirder at their place.
"Oooohhhh, were going to be late for Mr. Shido." Wined Ed.
"Better get going." Sighed Tora. The group quickly made their way to their way to the awaiting class.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Today's class was more of a history lesson than a defense class. But as Mr. Shido put it one must learn from the past in order to prepare oneself for the future. Well he went on about all the ancients of the world; those who have seen history unfold before them. Then came the topic of the ancient 13 who are believed to be the first vampires in existence. Tora and Lucifer snickered and coughed as Mr. Shido went on about the individuals who made up the ancient 13. He read and tried to put a few trivial facts into his speech to keep the classes attention. He came to the final two of the thirteen
"The two twins have never truly been identified. The sister has been described by the few who claim to have seen her as a tigress. Very protective of those she cares for. She is said to have protected a church for many years against invaders until the locales forced her away for fear of what she was. The brother on the other hand has had very complex descriptions. Some have proclaimed him an evil monster and others have described him a loving brother. But since so few have been proven to ever see them it is still hard to tell for sure what they are like. Yes, Miss. Tora " He raised his eyebrow. This was one student he wished would keep her hand down.
"What were their names?" she asked sweetly. This was too simple. He noticed Lucifer sitting suddenly very serenely with a look of pure mischievous upon his face. "Hold on, let me see." Shido picked up another book flipping through the pages until he came to the passage he was looking for.
"Ah here it is. The twins names have never been proven but they are believed to be called Lucifer and Tor, oh boy." He finished. Realization finally dawned on him but he still couldn't believe it. Could these two really be the ancient twins? He looked up with a look like he may be sick. The two twins were laughing pleasurably with their selves. Ed had figured out their secret long before, they were surprised it took this vampire so long to figure it out. They disappeared and reappeared standing on Shido's desk. They had on long robes of black with blue sashes upon their waists and arms. They had an almost malicious look upon their face as they stared out at the stunned class. Tora's high heel red shoe's peeked beneath the robe revealing red lacing that went up her leg. They giggled suddenly.
"Okay well I guess that explains a lot, now will you two please get down from there." Replied Shido who was now holding his head with a sweat drop hanging from his face. These two young ones seemed to enjoy giving him a headache.
"Okay." Suddenly the two were once more at their desk in their normal wear. The class starred with fear at them for the rest of the class. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay let me get this, the two of the oldest creatures and probably with the strongest magic at that come here to learn magic?" Hermione asked.
"Well it's more along the lines we came here to have fun!" sang out Tora.
"More or less what she said." Lucifer sighed.
"Okay, well now I think I'm getting a headache too."
"Why?" asked Tora.
"Never mind, pass me a biscuit." Sighed Hermione.
"Ed likes pumpkin juice." Sang Edward as she wiped her mouth. Suddenly Ein rushed through the great hall barking at Mrs. Norris. She was running for her life.
"Ooohh, looks like fun Ed wants to join." Ed suddenly jumped to the floor and ran on all fours after Ein. Just then came Filch screaming after them to leave Mrs. Norris alone. He rushed past trying to catch up with them. Tora simply shrugged her shoulders and got on all fours like Ed and pursued Filch and the rest of them.
"And I thought where I came from was insane." Sighed Ranma as a sweat drop fell from his head.
"I agree." Akane sighed watching the weird chase unravel in front of them.
"Eat Mrs. Norris!" screamed Fred.
"Yeah, eat her, eat her!" echoed Duo
"Your all nuts, you know that." Sighed Shinji.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay Shinji were getting the next one if it kills us." Duo said sternly as he pounded his fist into his hand.
"Okay" sighed Shinji. Shido had taken out a few Night Breeds that had tried to storm the castle earlier and this made Duo even madder. He had his supped up Gundam and nothing to use it on.
"I'm tired of everyone else getting the action while were left there to stare. Well show them this time. Hey Shinji, Shinji, you awake?" He looked out of his cockpit at the silent Eva. He couldn't see inside.
"What, what, Yeah." He yawned. Two o'clock in the morning and Duo still refused to sleep.
"Hey boys I think you missed something?" It was Tora she was sitting on a tower roof pointing to a group of demons walking by the looming mecha's. The two jumped into action by stepping on the creatures and turning them into a puddle of squished goo.
"Ha, Ha we got em for a change!" yelled out Duo.
"Eeeeewwww" Tora sneered as she floated down to the ground. The two pilots looked to see what she was talking about. The mecha's were covered with the green ooze from the knee's down.
"Aw man I just waxed this thing." Complained Shinji.
"Eeeewww, man." Sighed Duo. Tora giggled
"At least I don't have to clean that up, oh and boys, that bloods flammable." She continued walking by. Spike suddenly walked up the path lighting his cigarette.
"Hey" he waved coolly.
"Hi." Tora waved back as she walked away. Spike threw his match in the direction of the two mecha's which ignited.
"What the?" he raised hi eyebrow as he watched the two machines run around trying to stamp out the flame. Eventually they ran into each other knocking their selves into the lake putting out the flame. Spike shrugged and continued on his nightly stroll.
"Duo."
"Yes Shinji."
"Remind me never to listen to you again."
"Okay pal."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey my bra's gone again."
"Mine too."
"This is weird"
"My panties are missing."
For the past few weeks' girls intimates have been disappearing from their dorms. Every ones been trying to catch this thief but to no avail.
"Man if I didn't know better, naw can't be. There's no way he could get here." Akane sighed. And yet it sounded so familiar. They all traveled down to the great hall where that seemed to be the only topic on everyone's mind.
"Why would someone only steal the girls panties?" asked Ron.
"Probably Malfoy, always knew he was a bit of a pervert." Came Harry snidely.
"They Slytherin girls as well as Hufflepuff and Raven Claw has all been experiencing the same problems." Hermione sighed. Suddenly Professor Mcgonagall Stood up and echoed to the whole school.
"Okay look whoever stole Madam Hooch's and my underwear please return it. This is quite childish and if the culprit persists drastic measures will be taken. Thank You."
"Okay that is one thing I never wanted to think of while eating." Cringed Ron.
"Yeah." Harry muttered.
"Okay vampire, we all know your doing it. You already look so much like a girl, pervert anyway you're always prowling the castle at night, fess up." Draco Malfoy hissed to Lucifer.
"I wouldn't try picking a fight with me moron." He hissed back.
"And why's that? You're going to kill me?" he laughed.
"No, but there's things so worse than death that I could send your way, remember who I am you asshole." With that Lucifer sent up a huge fireball from his hands that singed Malfoys eyebrows. He decided he had better things to do. Ed and Tora clapped their hands and whistled happily.
"Ed likes do it again, do it again!" she cheered.
"Lets have charred snake shall we?" asked Tora
"Yes, Yes, Ed hungry." They looked to each other and burst out laughing.
Ranma looked over to Akane with a raised eyebrow. Could it, naw no way he thought. That perverted old oompa-loompa could never find this place, then yet again...
Tora walked along the corridor with her brother Harry, Hermione, and Ron. They stopped to chat by one of the staircases for a second when Harry noticed a distracted gaze upon Tora's face. She suddenly pulled out an unusually long sword out of her robe pocket.
"Hey you can't brandish that in here!" yelled Hermione. Had this crazy girl truly lost it? A malicious sneer spread across Tora's face, a small fang showing beneath her lip.
"Three, two, one, DIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE!" she screamed twirling around. Harry was surprised to hear metal meeting metal. There before Tora stood a man with his hair drawn back in a ponytail. Hey wasn't that the man from the mini-movie he thought. The two danced a deadly ballet. Metal clashed as students backed away. They went round from round until the young girl kicked him in the crotch sending him to his knees where she pushed him back with one hand. She suddenly struck below his cupped hands forcing the sword into stone. The man looked like he was scared beyond belief. She knelt down and with drew what looked like some relic cross from her pocket and forced it onto the mans forehead where it singed the flesh. When she withdrew it there was a large red mark where the cross-had been.
"Naughty, Naughty, Kane you know better. Next time I might plunge that sword a little higher if you know what I mean." She sneered with an odd sweetness. He shook his head quickly.
"Oh my." Hermione said stunned. "Bloody cool!" yelled Harry and Ron. Suddenly an eerie voice came from behind them.
"May I eat them master." It was Azeusa. She sat perched upon the banister tilting her head as if a puppy waiting for it's command.
"No Azeusa, not now." He replied as he started to rub his head. The three stared at them not knowing to run.
"She's a little touched in the head you know, just yell if she tries anything." He assured them. They gulped in unison.
"Um, Azeusa honey, where's Kyo?" asked Tora.
"I'll never tell." She sang eerily. Her gaze went to the ceiling. All of them looked up to see a young long black haired man hanging from the ceiling with crosses surrounding him. The roped bounded him and suspended him by his feet while what looked like pair of Kane's dirty socks was stuck in his mouth. Tora noticed the crystal was still around his neck protecting him from the sun luckily. Tora shot up with her wings carrying her. She quickly severed the rope, which sent Kyo falling to the floor.
"Ooops sorry." She waved nervously before ascending downward.
"Loons that's what you created Lucifer, a bunch of freaking loons!" Kyo ranted. Suddenly Tora jumped on him kissing him on the lips. Harry, Ron and Hermione's mouths dropped open. Tora turned to look at them.
"What vampires can't have girlfriends?" she asked sarcastically.
"He's.." stammered Hermione.
"He's all mine, isn't that right my little darling."
"Ahhh, yeah, okay, God this is weird." He stammered. Tora tilted her head as in how.
"I mean I haven't been in the daylight and around so many people in centuries." He explained.
"Well let's go take a tour, my treat." Tora cooed.
"Hey what about class." Yelled Hermione.
"Ah, Forget divination, I'm going on a stroll with my little Kyo." She waved back suddenly not caring about class.
"She's fallen hard for that fledgling of mine." Lucifer said with his eyes closed. He opened the in a sudden smirk. "Hey I've heard that word before what is it." Ron asked
"Simple, I turned these three into what they are. They are my students in a way my children."
"What!" yelled Ron.
"Oh don't worry with those three plus my sister I don't need anymore headaches. I'd rather throw my self upon a cross than create another. Really Kane get up off the floor, one would think you would of figured out to use a cup when fighting her." He walked off to class waving his hand dismissively behind him.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"So who are you taking to the Yule Ball this year?" asked Duo.
"Don't know." Replied Shinji.
"I'm going with Kyokins!" squealed Tora.
"Spike said he go with Ed. He said he had nothing better to do, yep, yep." Ed chimed proudly.
"And she's proud of that?" asked Ron.
"How about you two?" asked Lucifer.
"Ron's taking Hermione and I'm going with Ginny since she couldn't go otherwise." Answered Harry.
"I'm afraid to say that girls don't want me to go near them here. Hmph, fascist bigots, just because I'm a blood drinker." Lucifer stated Snidely.
"Awwww, I know. You can be my escort Luci Baby. That way I have a man for each arm. Always wanted that actually." Tora chipped up.
"Uh, yeah sure", replied Lucifer raising his eyebrow. His sister was so odd at times.
"Hey I heard Snape Got a date with Faye." Commented George.
"Yep, Yep, Faye got BIG diamond from greasy man. Said he have more if Faye went with him, Yep Yep." Sighed Ed
"Okay on that note, Ranma who you going with?" asked Duo
"Don't know haven't gotten to that yet" he sighed. He hadn't thought about it yet. "Ooooooh no, I have Idea, Ranma like blind date, no?" asked Tora. She sounded amazingly like Shampoo. This put Ranma on edge for a second.
"uhhh, why?" he asked not sure if he wanted to hear the answer.
"Tora know very pretty girl, very sweet and kind. She a hot mama yes, yes. You like. I know you will. I set up right now, yep, yep." She cheerfully rose out of her seat and left.
"No, don't come back here you insane.. oh well." He slumped back into his chair. Well she said she was sweet and kind. What could it hurt.
"Akanechan have you found date?" asked Tora. Akane was startled; she sounded a little like Shampoo when she spoke like that.
"Ummmm.. no, why?" Akane asked as she raised her eyebrow to this odd question.
"I know a hot boy who has been eyeing you lately. A real ladies man I say. He too shy to speak with you. I set up date yes?" she tilted her head in question.
"A ladies man huh?" she asked.
"Yes, Yes, if I didn't already have two dates I would take him. Hey if you don't take him I'll take him anyway." She smiled evilly.
"No, no I need a date anyway. Can I know his name?" she asked.
"No, no, no, he made me promise him that I wouldn't say until the dance."
"Alright then." She replied.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay lets see your traveling spells class." Hissed the potions master. Snape walked down the lines of cauldrons to see how the students did. He came to Miss. Tora's cauldron that was stirring frantically.
"Why Miss Tora you're potion seems lavender, it's suppose to be purple. Ten points from Gryyfindor." He hissed.
"uh-uh, it's supposed to be lavender." She chimed sweetly.
"Miss. Tora don't sass me that potion couldn't make a speck of dust travel here nether less anything larger."
"Here watch Mr. Severus." She quickly kicked the cauldron over with her leather boot sending the contents flying to the floor. The potions master cursed. "Damn silly girl looked what you did!" he yelled. Suddenly a circle of light was sent up into the air and two large objects ejected out of the air.
"What the.." he hissed. Soon the light dissipated and a Blue haired girl and a girl with red hair stood up. The red head yelled in Russian and then spied the familiar Shinji.
"You, You did this didn't you stupid idiot." She yelled.
"Me, I didn't do it!" he yelled back.
"It's always your fault fool!" she yelled chasing him as if to crème him.
"Idiots." Muttered the blue haired girl.
"Ooohhhh. I made another match. Match maker, match maker, make me a match, find me a find catch me a catch." Tora sang.
"That girls truly off her rocker!" exclaimed Duo as he watched his friend get beat up by the violent red headed girl.
"Ahhhh, know I know what Shido is talking about. I have a headache now." He sighed as he rubbed his temples.
"Shut up girl!" he hissed at Tora who suddenly stopped singing surprised. She suddenly gives the victory sign and stand yelling.
"I brought through two very big specks of dust Mr. Severus!" she yelled. A sweat drop formed on his head as he sighed.
"Can I have extra credit." She asked.
"No!" he yelled. She snapped her fingers
"Aw, man, oh well, Match maker, match maker.." she sang.
"Doesn't this girl ever shut up." He sighed once more. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"I can't believe I've been whisked away to some stupid world where I'm being expected to protect stuff I have no clue about and to top it all off I'm here with silent girl and the stupid wonder." Complained the newest addition to the Gryyffindor house.
"Match maker, Match Maker." sang Tora and Ed in unison.
"and there they go again." Sighed Hermione.
"So want to go to the ball?" asked Duo. He explained to Rei what it was and she accepted.
"Hmph, now I suppose you'll have to escort me to this ball Shinji." Coughed Asuka.
"Me, why me?" he asked.
"You're the only one I know here stupid. Any way you should be pleased to be taking a beautiful girl like me to a ball." She stated confidently.
"Oh, boy." Sighed Shinji.
"What!" she yelled not pleased he was not ecstatic to be taking such a lovely girl. They started their fight once more with Shinji running away while the red head tried to kill him.
"DIE!" she yelled as she gave him a shot to the head. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey Ranma!" Ed rushed down the hall to the pig-tailed boy waving.
"Ed was told to say your date shall wear a pretty blue dress and red rose in hair." She gleefully smiled.
"Um okay." He answered as Ed ran away giggling. Please tell me she didn't set me up with Ed he though as he proceeded to class. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Oh Akane," chimed Tora as she entered the girls dorm.
"Yeah" she replied. She very rarely saw Tora in this room. She always preferred to sleep with her brother. They tried every possible means to break her habit but it was useless and they had long given up.
"You're wearing your blue dress right?" she asked.
"Yeah, I already told you that." She replied.
"Okay, just put this in your hair." Tora threw a rose onto Akane's bed. She picked it up and looked at it.
"It's so pretty." She cooed.
"Knew you like it. Oh your date will be wearing red and white dress robes so you know. You'll know him when you see him." And with that she disappeared once more. I wonder who it could be thought Akane. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The group of boys entered their dorm to find quite a surprising site. Tora and Lucifer were striped down to their skivvies getting ready to dress in their ball wear.
"Hi guys!" Tora called back as she turned around.
"Hey you can't do that here!" Yelled Ron.
"Why?" she asked as she walked over to retrieve her dress.
"She does it all the time at home. It doesn't phase me." He sighed as he pulled on a pair of pants.
"But, But," stammered Shinji. Tora pulled her dress on. It was black and cut short in the front and flared down long in the back. She placed the straps upon her shoulders and laced up her ribboned high heels and tied the top in a bow. It was too late to say anything now since she was fully dressed. She brushed out her hair and placed on her many bangles and large silver hooped earrings before deciding to exit. Lucifer was dressed in black leather pants and a black buttoned down shirt. Very unwizard like the group thought. He excited to find his sister.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Every one was gathered out side of the feat hall waiting. Tora was giggling gleefully as she paraded around her two dates. Kyo had worn his white poets shirt with vest and pants that were very similar to the period he once lived in. His long black hair was pulled back and tied with a piece of ribbon completing the look. Kane walked about with Azeusa in tow wearing their normal wear. Duo was talking to Rei who looked almost dead compared to the other chattering girls. Akane walked about trying to fin her date. Strange Ranma was the only one wearing red and white. Oh no, she suddenly realized what Tora had done. About the same time Ranma realized the same thing. He walked up to her quickly.
"Tora didn't?" he asked
"Ah, looks that way." She sighed while thinking he's supposed to be a real ladies man? Ranma was trying to figure out how Tora could think this tomboy was sweet and kind when he spoke.
"Ah, you want to?" he asked referring to the dance.
"Might as well." She sighed. Hey it could have been worse she figured. The doors opened and everyone walked in to the great hall which was decorated lavishly.
"Welcome children, enjoy." Was all the headmaster said as he sat down at his table. There were small round tables scattered around the edges while the center was left open so people could dance.
"Shall we my sweets." Giggled Tora
"I'll sit this one out, you two dance." Lucifer replied elegantly. The young couple quickly swept out to the dance floor dancing to the slow music in elegance. Shido was already out there dancing with the lovely Miss. Riho who tended to keep to their quarters.
"Ah, a man of my own time." Shido commented to Kyo. They had on similar attire but slightly different colors. Kyo nodded in response as he twirled Tora lovingly around. Everyone danced the night away sometimes to faster paced modern music and sometimes to the slower tempo's of old. Everyone saw the deep connection Tora and Kyo had for each other. They were in love. They also noticed how Akane and Ranma had a sort of unspoken love between them even though they so often tortured each other. Harry Ron and Hermione were sitting at a table along with Lucifer who watched his sister with great interest. Tora had exposed her neck as if beckoning Kyo to take a bite. He elegantly barred his fangs and pierced her tender skin. Her eyes went gold and she showed her own fangs as he drank her blood.
"He's hurting her!" Hermione practically screamed. Lucifer laughed letting his eyes go gold and revealing his one fang from beneath his lip in a crooked smile.
"No, she's sharing her power with him, making him stronger. Actually, it's a sign of deep love amongst our kind to do such a thing."
"Oh, sorry." She whispered sitting back down.
"Don't be, watch, even though he doesn't have any strength to offer her he will soon let her drink from him. As sign of his loving respect for her. They do make quite a cute couple don't they. Ha, at one time I regretted making him what he is, I felt sorry for him. But no longer, those two were truly made for each other. If I had to do it again, I would, no question. My sister has never been happier." He bowed his head briefly before looking up. Tora had taken her turn sipping from Kyo's jugular. She looked up to the four and smiled a cat like grin which was accentuated by her tiger like eyes
"She's relaxed, she show's her eye's." he said smiling.
"Your eye's are also gold Lucifer." Commented Harry.
"Hmm, I didn't take notice, but I suppose I am. Ah yes tonight we let our hair down as they say." He smirked.
Faye sat down next to Jet. She just got done dancing a dance with Snape. He was okay after you got to know him she thought. Jet looked almost disappointed. "Don't tell me that Hootch gal dissed you." She asked as she took a drink from her goblet.
"Looks like it." He sighed as he kicked his feet upon the table.
"Oh well maybe it was for the better." She sighed. She stared out through the crowd and spotted Ed with Ein. She had dressed up the little Corgi in a tuxedo for dogs and now was dancing around with him while Spike starred after her.
"Chosen over a dog" he sighed as he made his way back to where his companions were sitting. Misato sat at the next table, drunk and singing gleefully. The next song to be played was Fly Me to The Moon, which she sang unusually loud.
Suddenly a frustrated scream echoed from out of the hall. Madam Hootch entered chasing something with her broom trying to beam it upon the creature's head.
"I'll get you, you pervert!" she screamed. Her hair was all messed up and her green robes were ripped and soiled as if she fell many times.
"But my pretty we make such a cute couple." The creature yelled.
"Hey who lost their midget." Asked Tora.
"Grandfather Happosi?" Akane yelled amazed.
"Hey what's the perverted old ompa-loompa doing here any way?" Argued Ranma.
"This thing stole my bra!" yelled Madam Hootch once more. The little midget ran straight for Faye and landed upon her chest gloomping it.
"Ooooh, aren't you the pretty one." He laughed.
"Die Bastered!" she yelled as she flung the creature from her chest. It then landed on Misato who threw him across the room as well. Now both women were fireing at him with their guns. Everyone fell to the floor praying not to get hit.
"Come back here you perverted old monkey!" yelled Ranma as he chased the old man Followed by Akane who had her mallet.
"Really, can't you just stay home for once." She yelled. Now all the wizards were flinging spells at this intruder trying to freeze him but he was too quick.
"Ha, Ha, you can never catch me!" he laughed.
"If he finishes with because I'm the ginger bread man I'm out of here." Sighed Lucifer. Girls were screaming as the perverted old man ran underneath their skirts and glomped their chests. Everyone was going every which direction in utter chaos.
"That's it where's my Eva I'm going to stomp that thing." Roared Asuka as she threw the evil thing away from her. Ranma and Akane were in close pursuit skidding as they changed directions.
"Can't he stay still?" Yelled Akane.
"Come back here pervert!" yelled Ranma. Suddenly the midget jumped on top of a table and threw a bowel of cold punch at Ranma.
"Be quiet boy, you always like to ruin my fun." He said angrily. The contents splashed the young boy who was suddenly a red headed girl.
"That's it I'll kill you my self old man!" he yelled in a higher pitch voice. The few who took noticed backed off of the man fearing he was a powerful wizard. Tora laughed when she saw Ranme change.
"oooohhhhh, I see young boy took dip in spring of drown girl, thought I sensed a Junseyko cursed here."
"Yeah, now help me kill this thing!" he yelled. The midget now launched for Azeusa who had her arms stretched out and her fangs bared.
"Taste like Chicken!" she yelled happily prepared to make a feast of this creature and no one was going to try to stop her this time. The old man suddenly changed direction not wanting to get too close to this girl. Suddenly the evil ompa-loompa jumped for Tora who grabbed him by his head and threw him away from her out of instinct. Her eyes were full of anger and she hissed darkly wanting to destroy the thing that just did that. She had thrown the pervert straight through the window where he disappeared into the night to find more panties.
"Great, now he's still out there." Sighed Akane.
"When I catch him I'm mailing him by freight back to Japan." Groaned an angered Ranma. He had done so well keeping his secret hidden.
"So, you a cross dresser?" asked Duo.
"Shut up." Ranma groaned even more depressed.
"Okay buddy." He threw up his hands in surrender and walked away. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
End of Part 1 Part 2 comming soon
The sun blazed down on a red headed pig-tailed girl that was supporting herself upon taped up broken crutches.
"Why me? What did I do to deserve this?" the youth groaned. Once again she was subjected to a wild chase, various attempted marriage schemes, a panty crazed ompa-loompa, and the end of Akane's mallet and it wasn't even noon yet.
"Ah, why did she have to throw that water, stupid tom-boy. I need a vacation." She grumbled. Suddenly she heard a flutter of wings and a note dropped to his feet.
"What the?" he said out loud as he picked up the letter. It was addressed to her. She opened it and read it.
"What this can't be right, on the other hand..." he smiled evilly.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Only if Riho and Guni can stay with me." Announced the young man with long purple hair. He was bargaining with the older gentleman sitting at the desk.
"Okay, Okay, have it your way, they can stay in your quarters. Mind you though we'll have to subtract a little from your pay." The silver bearded man smiled. The purple haired man returned the smile.
"Deal." The young man stood up and shook the older mans hand.
"So when do I start Dumbledore."
"As soon as possible Mr. Shido." Stated the old wizard.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey Spike look here." Jet was starring at a piece of parchment that suddenly appeared before him.
"Ooooh, can Ed see."
"Just hold on a second Ed." Spike picked up the paper and read. His eyes grew wide.
"What is it?" asked Jet.
"I have no clue." Spike said as he continued examining the paper.
"Hey what's up with you." Asked Faye as she walked into the room. She went to stand over Spike's shoulder to see what he was reading.
"That's a joke right?" she asked.
"I don't know, but look at how much money their offering if we except." Spike said as he handed over the paper to Jet.
"Whoa, we couldn't make that much even if we worked around the clock for years." He exclaimed. Suddenly they heard Ed squeal with delight. She was lying on her back clapping her feet.
"Ed got letter too." She giggled.
~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey Shinji, what's that?" Misato was pointing to a small piece of parchment upon the table.
"I don't know?" the black haired boy named Shinji replied. Misato too a swig of beer as Shinji read the letter.
"I don't think you're going to believe this." She looked up to what Shinji was talking about and hiccupped.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"What the hell is going on here!" screamed Duo who now had a room full of letters all addressed to the same place. He read one. Same as the first ones he had gotten. Some one really has an odd sense of humor he thought as he fell back upon the pile.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Lucifer and Tora lay with their heads hanging off the front of the sofa and their legs over the back. The TV was on and everyone else was asleep. Suddenly a letter fell on top of Lucifer's face. Tora laughed. Then another one appeared and fell straight into her mouth. It was Lucifer's turn to laugh.
"Shut up." She groaned as she read hers. Two crystals fell out of the note. One for each of them. She smiled. These were rare indeed. They would allow for them to walk in the daylight and not have to worry about getting burned.
"Ooooohhhh." She cooed as she watched Lucifer read his.
"Shall we?" he asked.
"Yes, definitely, lets." She smiled evilly. The twins of darkness were going to Hogwarts.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Ranma was once more himself, a boy. He was ecstatic. He was going away for a full year. No more Kuno, no more fiancé's, no more pops, life couldn't get any better.
"Father look I got his letter today. I was excepted into this school called Hogwarts!" he heard Akane scream. He suddenly faltered to the floor.
"Why Me?"
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kings cross was unusually busy today. Hogwarts students were trying to slip through the barrier without being noticed and many didn't know where the barrier even was. The twins Lucifer and Tora made their way through the crowed. They knew where they were going they could sense where the magic was strongest. They noticed a large group made up of a witch and various other oddly dressed people. They didn't seem like they knew much about magic for fear was upon their faces.
"Fuck how the hell did you do that!" came a young boy with braided hair wearing a priest outfit.
"I think I've gone insane." Said a scantly clothed purple haired lady.
"You and me both." Moaned a tall curly haired man.
"I can't believe this." Moaned a black haired lady with a red jacket.
"Miss Misato were are we?" asked a sickly looking boy.
"wheeeee. can Ed do that again." Yelled a girl in a white tank top and goggles.
"No!" a bald headed man snapped.
"I've explained this all before people. You're now at the station. Go through that wall and get on the train. You'll stuff will be waiting for you when you get to the school. Young ones if you want to learn you'll do it and the rest of you. Well it's either get on that train and get paid or stay here and never get back home." The lady grumbled as she disappeared.
Tora went through the barrier before she could hear their decision. On the other side was a black haired boy running away from some girl with a mallet. Oooh this was going to be an interesting year she thought.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Harry had finally found Hermione and Ron upon the train.
"Hey did you see that bunch out there?" he asked.
"Yeah, heard that Dumbledore hired some guards to help guard the school since you know who is back in power." Ron explained.
"Yeah, in the Daily Prophet I saw an article that said there the top of their league. Also I heard were getting some new students that under normal circumstances would never be accepted in to Hogwarts. They said that all magical hands should be trained if He Who Must Not Be Named is to be defeated." Hermione told them.
"What do you mean not under normal circumstances?" Harry asked
"Don't know they didn't say." She replied.
"Strange?" Ron said as he raised his eyebrow.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Luci, Lucifer, where are you?" sang out Tora. She had gotten separated from her brother after they got on the train. She walked into a compartment that held a black haired boy with a kung fu jacket and a young girl with short black hair on one seat. The boy seemed to be unconscious. The other seat contained the young woman who had on a red jacket and the sickly looking boy.
"Hey have you seen a male me walking around, black hair?" she questioned. They looked at her as if she was nuts. The shorthaired girl raised an eyebrow at this.
"My brother, if you see him tell him I want my hat back." She explained and then she shut the door.
"Lucifer I know you can hear me get back hear RIGHT NOW!" she screamed. A few students who were walking around stared at her. She felt someone run past her.
"Looking for something sis." He laughed as he swung the hat around his finger.
"Give it back or you die." She smirked.
"Gotta catch me first." He laughed as he retreated.
"Luci get back here!" She screamed as she ran after him. They leapt and tumbled all around the train. Playfully toying with each other. Lucifer trying not to get caught and Tora not wanting to catch him just yet. They were having too much fun. Suddenly Tora leapt pileing into Lucifer. She sent them both sprawling into an open compartment.
"Wheeee, that was fun." She smiled as she tossed her cap back on her head.
"Get off of me!" Yelled Lucifer. Tora looked down, she was sitting on his chest.
"Oooooh, pined ya! What do I win?"
"Umm, your hat, now get off."
"Excuse us." Came a voice. Tora looked up to see a bushy hair girl along with two boys who were all starring at them.
"Hi, um Hi?" she was dumfounded.
"Get off me Tora before I blast you!" cried Lucifer.
"Aww, poor Lucifer." She mocked as she stood up.
"Hi there, the names Tora, and this is my rude twin Lucifer. Pleasure to meet you." She put out her hand. They each took it introducing their selves. Lucifer then stood up and introduced himself politly. They all sat back down. Tora felt like relaxing and this was as good a place as any.
"So you two new hear?" asked Ron.
"Yeah, but since we already know a lot of stuff they're pushing us up to 5th year." Tora answered.
"Never even dreamt of being schooled before. Our kind is well not very welcomed you might say." Lucifer grumbled. Tora punched him in the ribs. They had agreed not to say anything unless they had too. Wizards weren't very fond of vampires even if they were the ancient 13.
"Your kind?" Harry asked.
"Well, well, look at the time we better be off." Tora yelled back as she ran out the door dragging her brother. Weird Ron mouthed.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Duo was walking around the train. He had never been in such a place before. Weird. The witch or whatever she was, had dragged him here without caring what he thought about it. For his, own good she said. Phah, how would she know. But a warm place to stay and food sounded awful nice to him. He had been without those for a while now. He suddenly bumped into someone.
"Sorry." Came a scared sounding voice. "Hey weren't you with us when that witch brought all of us here?" asked Duo.
"Hm, yes. The names Shinji Ikari." He said a little more confident.
"I'm Duo Maxwell, so where do you come from?" he asked leaning against the wall with his arms behind his head.
"I come from Tokyo 3. I'm an Eva Pilot." He explained.
" A pilot you say. I myself pilot a thing called a Gundum. You know a mecha." Shinji nodded showing he understood.
"Things are so strange here."
"Damn straight, magic who knew." Duo answered.
"We shouldn't be talking about this here. The headmaster said not to let everyone know right away. It might start a panic. There already afraid of this Voldemort guy, if they knew the real seriousness of what's going on." Shinji let his words hang.
" Fine, Hey did you see that girl that said she was looking for herself?"
"Yeah she came into our compartment, I think she said she was looking for her brother."
"Well she didn't go that far when she asked me. She asked if I had seen her run by but with black hair, then she asked me to tell the black haired her she was going to kill him. I think these people seriously need a mental evaluation."
"No doubt there Duo." ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Ranma finally awoke as they pulled into the Hogsmede station.
"Wake up stupid were here." Hissed Akane.
"Why did you have to hit so hard." He cried as he rubbed the lump on his head.
"Well if you weren't being such a jerk I wouldn't have hit you then would I."
"What" All I said is that ..." he noticed Akane's face starting to twitch. He decided not to finish what he was going to say.
"Forget it." He mumbled as they made their way off the train. He didn't feel like being knocked out again. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Oooooohhh, Edward likes." Cooed the excited teen.
"Cool it Ed, we don't need to go loosing you." Spike called out smoothly to her. The only reason he had agreed to this job was the large sum of money he would receive at the end of this whole nightmare.
"Quaint little place isn't it." Faye said snidely.
"Well just think about the sum we all get at the end." Spoke Jet.
"At least the tyke is happy." Spike watched as Ed ran all about excited about going to a real castle and studying magic.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Everyone had finally arrived at the castle. Added to the usually odd décor was a large ship of some sorts that was parked on the front lawn. Bebop was its name. Harry thought maybe it had to do with Voldemort and the new security measures. Everyone stared as they entered the castle.
They entered the castle where soon the sorting started to take place. Harry sat and watched as everyone was sorted. Oddly though there were a few new students that were sorted into Gryffindor that claimed to be fifth years. They said they were taught over the summer so they could be placed in the right class. Harry watched as an Edward Wong Hau Pepela Tivrusky the 4th was sorted once more into Gryffindor. An odd name he thought.
The feast begun and everyone was enjoying their selves. Harry suddenly received a jab in the ribs from Hermione.
"Hey look at the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Also look at the brown haired girl next to him. Do you see what I see?"
"What are you talking about." He whispered harshly. She rolled her eyes and sighed.
"The two twins down there at the end of the table, they have the same exact crystal necklace." She hissed.
"So they probably shop at the same store." Answered Ron.
"He comes from Japan and I think those two come from America, so I don't think so." She said as she shook her head.
"It's nothing Hermione, just forget it." Harry reassured her. Suddenly he jumped when he heard a loud explosion come from where the two new twins sat.
"Sorry, too much Juice in that one!" she called out to everyone. It looked like she was toying with some sort of small explosives. "Really one would think you would learn by now." Lucifer said in his usual you know better tone.
"Stuff it Luci Baby!"
"Don't call me that, my names L-U-C-I-F-E-R." he stressed each syllable.
"Whatever, Luci." Harry saw her smile wickedly at him. No doubt in his mind they were siblings.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The feast had ended and everyone headed to their dorm or ship as the case may be. Everyone was tired and was ready for bed. Harry and Ron had just went into their dorm when they noticed everyone arguing in the corner of the room. They went over to check it out.
"Hey what's going on he?" Ron asked. As they drew closer they saw what was wrong. Two beds had been pushed into the corner of the room and quilts were thrown upon it forming a sort of nest. There in the middle of it were two familiar huddled figures seemingly half asleep.
"Hey why is she in here? The girls room is down the other direction." Argued Ron.
"Said she didn't care and to leave them alone." Answered Fred seemingly annoyed.
"Were twins and we don't even sleep like that." Argued George.
"Yeah, she said we have nothing she hasn't already seen and told us to go fly a kite. Bloody rude I say." Replied Fred.
"Just throw her out." Suggested Ranma. He approached the bed to demonstrate when Tora suddenly turned over and hissed viciously before rolling over and seemingly falling back to sleep. He was so surprised he fell backward landing on his butt.
"What the hell?" he cried. Tora suddenly waved him away as if to dismiss him. Lucifer sat up and looked at them yawning.
"If I could get away sleeping in the girls dorm I would, sorry but you'll have to put up with her. I wouldn't try that again though, you might not live next time. She can get a bit testy when she's like this." He then rolled over and fell back to sleep. After that everyone figured it might be healthier to stay out of her way for the time being.
Next morning all the Gryffindor girls kept talking about the missing Tora.
"She was in our dorm." Muttered Harry unhappily. "What!" Hermione exclaimed.
"Yeah, nearly tried to kill Ranma." Snorted Ron.
"Ah, I see your talking about my dear sisters theatrics. She can be quite a hand full at times." It was Lucifer. Harry and Ron had jumped. They hadn't heard him sit down.
"She very rarely leaves my side. We are a very notorious duo." He smiled his suave alluring smile.
"How so?" asked Hermione. Just then Tora came dancing in singing her favorite rock song. With that Lucifer stood up waving her near.
"Oh, you'll see." Tora slumped heavily in the chair still singing her song. Neither of them seemed to eat Hermione took notice.
"Hello Luci baby." She chimed.
"and again with the Luci baby." Lucifer sighed in disgust.
"Here from Dumbledore." She tossed her brother a flask, which he looked at closely than smiled.
"Seems to think of everything that man." Lucifer smiled as he took a swig.
"Yes, he does." Tora replied.
"What's in there?" asked Ron.
"Oh a very special treat, lets go shall we dear sister."
"Yes, lets." Replied Tora once more.
"They are a strange pair." Harry responded.
They watched as the new guards walk up to a special table that had been set up next to the teacher's table. They filtered in here and there settling down to enjoy their meal. Suddenly Misato's voice rang out above the hall's noise.
"What do you mean there's no beer, I must have beer if I'm going to function properly!"
"Oh, boy." Shinji muttered.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Defense Against the Dark Arts Class, that was where all the fifth years were. They all turned as their new teacher walked in with his long purple ponytail in tow wearing a white shirt with a gray vest and pants. Very unwizardly the class thought. They watched as a small green urban fairy spirit two and fro behind the man.
"Hello there. As you know I will be you new teacher Shido Tatsuhiko. I hope I can teach you many things this year that will aid you further on in your lives. We shall study everything from the breed to dark magic and even the ancients such as the oldest Vampire Rafe. As you all know he has been seen very few times and not in over 300 years. Um Yes Miss Tora?" he looked up to find the young girl waving her hand excitedly. Maybe she had to use the bathroom he thought. She seemed awful anxious. She spoke awfully cheerfully.
"I saw him, he was in our apartment about a week ago." She smiled.
"Um, somehow I doubt that Miss. Tora." He was about to go back to teaching when her hand went up again.
"I can prove it Mr.Shido." she chimed.
"Okay then, amuse us." He smiled. She was an overly confident thing. What made her think she could get the mighty Rafe to come here? He watched her closely; she seemed to be concentrating really hard.
"Hey, what do you mean your busy, get down here you doof." Tora screamed. Who was she talking to the Harry thought? Had this girl truly gone insane? He noticed Lucifer was cracking up hysterically.
"Aw how rude."
"Hey, that's it I'm coming up there you dork!" suddenly she was gone. The class stared dumbfounded. Suddenly she popped back into view dragging a boy with unnaturally red hair to the front of the class. He had on only a bath towel. He was screaming for she had him by the earring pulling it. By this time Lucifer had fallen out of his chair in hysterics.
"For Gods sakes girl let me put on some clothes!" the boy screamed. Suddenly he was dressed in lovely robes of black and red.
"Your lucky I don't kill.. Okay why do we have an audience?" he asked just noticing the class.
"You're in the DADA class silly." She jumped on his back almost sending him off balance. Shido stared not knowing to believe in what he was seeing
"Um, excuse me but who are you." He asked. Rafe raised an eyebrow.
"If you must know the name's Rafe and this girl hear enjoys driving me up a wall." He growled as the girl started to pull his cheeks.
"I do, that's so wonderful." She sang sweetly. Lucifer finally got off the floor but he was still laughing.
"Where's that damn Kyo, I thought he said he was going to try to keep you two in line." Rafe yelled.
"He's at the apartment silly. We are on our own for now." Tora sang again happily. Shido and the class just stared. One of the most powerful Vampires ever was being pushed around by this young girl. It was unbelievable. Rafe turned to Shido.
"God help you, these two are even too much for me. Lucifer, try not to wreak havoc here for a change." He pleaded
"I can't promise you anything, you know that." Her remarked snidely Rafe rolled his eyes
"Oh well, I tried." He bowed and suddenly vanished.
"Hey come back here you coward!" Tora yelled. He spoke to her telepathically like they always did.
"Oh how rude." She said once more.
"How the hell do you know HIM!" Shido said a little louder than he meant to.
"Just do unfortunately." Was all she said as she skipped back to her seat.
"I have a feeling this is going to be a long year." Guni sighed as she floated above his head.
"I think you're right." Shido sighed as he slumped into his desk chair holding his head.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey look there." Whispered Harry. It was lunch and Faye one of the guards that was on duty had just walked by the teachers table.
"Look at Snape, he's checking her out." He almost laughed. Could Snape actually love someone?
"Well who wouldn't. Look at those clothes she's wearing, and that body." Ron practically drooled.
"Really you two." Hissed Hermione. "Hey weren't you the one oogling over Professor Shido in DADA class today?" Ron chuckled.
"Hmph, no, I was trying to learn unlike you two." She snapped. She was lying. Her cheeks suddenly turned bright red.
"Yeah right." Murmured Ron.
"An Eva would cream a Gundum!" yelled Shinji from the end of the table.
"Yeah right! My gundum would massacre you're Eva anyday!" came Duo. They looked around to see everyone starring at them. They laughed nervously before sitting back down.
"What was all that about?" asked Hermione.
"I don't know what's a Eva? Ron asked. Harry just shrugged his shoulders.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Baka Ranma!" Rang Akane's voice over the Gryffindor's common room.
"Hey I was just giving you a suggestion!" he yelled as he dodged the mallet. A table was suddenly shattered as the large mallet went through it.
"Die!" Akane screamed.
"Look, your cooking is poison enough what makes you believe your potions aren't deadly too?" He jumped once more out of the way.
"All you have to do is taste it you jerk!" she growled.
"I'm too young to die!" he yelled back. Tora, Lucifer and Duo were cheering them on.
"Yeah sock it too him Akane, I want to see some blood!" chimed Lucifer.
"Hit him, hit him damn it!" screamed Tora.
"This is so cool, it's like a real life whack-a-mole game." Cheered Duo.
"Um, I don't think you're supposed to be doing that?" sighed Shinji.
"Ooooh, Ed wants to try." Edward cooed. Suddenly Ranma was slammed against the wall by the mallet.
"Serves you right." She roared as she walked away. "Awww, I want more." Sighed Ed. Harry, Ron and Hermione starred along with the rest of the students at the scene that had just unraveled.
"You don't think they recruited them from a mental hospital do you?" Ron asked.
"Anything's possible." Harry answered as he shrugged his shoulders.
"There's something wrong with them?" Hermione whispered. Harry and Ron turned to look at her.
"Well no duh." Ron answered sarcastically.
"No I mean, the girl. She can apparate and she has never taken the test. I mean it should be impossible fore someone so young. And they happen to know one of the strongest vampires ever. The two boys next to them talk about Eva's and Gundum's whatever they are and Ed well Ed's Ed in any case. She has some of the strangest hi-tech computer equipment though. Stuff I have never heard of." She sat examining the group of students.
"Well they did say they were students that would never of been taught before." Ron answered.
"Yeah, but I think were dealing with more than muggle's and wizards here. I wonder." and with that she exited the common room no doubt heading for the library.
"I like pie!" screamed Ed.
"Um, I think our theory is probably closer to the truth." Ron snorted. Harry nodded starring at the group.
"Somehow I think your right."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay, now you have to be very careful when approaching these guys. They can be very violent if you rush them." Hagrid was holding a leash that belonged to a creature that looked like a cross between a lion and a reptile. The creature let out a roar and everyone backed away.
"He's just saying hello, isn't it cute." He cooed as he scratched the creature's chin. Suddenly Tora ran forward brazenly hugging the creature, which now looked like it was going to wet itself with fright.
"It's so cuuuuutee." She sang. Hagrid looked in disbelief.
"Well never seen that before."
"Aw, who's a cute little scaly lion." She said as she gave it a nooggie. Every one starred in disbelief. How could she scare a creature like that? Suddenly a louder noise distracted them. It had come from the lake.
Everyone looked over across the lake. Standing in the water was a huge creature that looked sort of humanoid in a sense. It had a white pointed face and a black shiny body. It was just as large as the castle looming viciously as if waiting for something.
"What the bloody hell!" yelled Hagrid as he starred at the creature. He had never seen anything like it before.
"Oh, no, it's and Angel." Shinji said fearfully.
"A what?" Harry asked. Just then Professor McGonagall ran out of the castle.
"Oh my." She yelled as she blasted it with some magic. Nothing happened. She stood with her wand outstretched. Soon Snape ran out yelling a curse. Green light flew from his wand and it still had no effect.
"Professor if I had my Eva I could deal with it!" Shinji cried out to her. Misato ran out of the castle with fear upon her face.
"No way we don't have a power source." She screamed. The Angel started to move.
"Professor can you bring my Gundum here like you did the ship?" asked Duo.
"Let me give it a try." She raised her wand and yelled a spell. Suddenly an Eva and Duo's Gundum dropped out of the sky. The students all backed up confused to what was going on. They had never seen such things.
"We can use magic to power the Eva. Shinji can you handle it?" The Professor asked. Suddenly two black winged creatures lifted from the ground and roared past. She turned to see Tora and Lucifer flying towards the creature. With that the two pilots jumped in their mecha's and ran after them. Spike and Faye by this time noticed what was going on and took off in their ships to try and destroy this creature.
The two mecha's prepared to destroy their target when they noticed something was wrong. The Angel seemed to be trying to buck something off.
"What the hell?" asked Duo starring.
"Look it's Tora!" yelled Shinji. There on the back of the creatures neck was the young girl who was kicking it and yelling.
"Ye ha, ride em cowboy!"
"Is' she crazy!" yelled Duo.
"Do you have to ask?" It was Lucifer. Duo turned to see him sitting on the Gundam's shoulder with his wings folded. He waved.
"Hey were trying to kill this thing not play with it." Spike, he wanted that thing dead. Any threat he killed meant a bonus and he wanted it bad.
"Aw, you're no fun." And with that she produced a sword and stabbed it deep into the creature's head. It suddenly stopped. She then released a great energy blast that traveled through the sword electrocuting the thing. She took to the air as the thing crumbled beneath the water.
"Clean up on isle 12!" she giggled pleased with herself.
"What the?" yelled Fay in disbelief. This kid just took her bonus.
"How did?' Shinji said in his cockpit. Misato said similar word from the ground. Duo starred dumfounded. Tora gave the victory sign as she danced in the air giggling. The student's mouths were wide open. Only Hermione spoke.
"See, I told you they weren't normal." She sneered.
"Uh, yeah." Harry just starred in shock. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Voldemort is growing stronger I fear." Dumbledore sighed. They figured he must have brought that creature here to destroy the castle.
"We need to be more careful, I don't think he'll send another one though, he'll try something different next time I'm afraid."
"And you expect this chaotic bunch to stop him!" yelled Misato.
"Why yes Miss. Katsuragi, you all are the top of your game in your worlds. I have complete faith in you all." He smiled. Tora raised her hand.
"Yes?"
"Um, I hope you don't mind but can out fledglings come I would like that and they could help." She said sweetly and with more sanity than she had spoken with in weeks.
"What's a fledgling?" asked Jet. Spike shrugged. He didn't know
"You really think they could help?" he asked.
"Yes, no doubt." Smiled Lucifer.
"Send for them then. Edward. We have invited you here for your astounding computer knowledge, as you know. Can you search the nets of the different worlds. I'll provide the magic needed to hook up between the dimensions. We need to find out any information we can on Voldemorts plans."
"Yep, didly doo, already on it." She flipped her goggles down and started giggling and rambling insanely.
"Good, lets all get some rest it's late." Dumble said as he opened the door for them to leave.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
They couldn't hide it now. Everyone knew something big was going on. At breakfast everyone tried to explain to those who asked them without giving away all their secrets, a really tough job. Tora and Lucifer weren't seen until their first classes where Hermione constantly badgered them for explanations. She constantly sent them notes which they returned with little fanged chibi pictures on them.
"What the?" Hermione said out loud.
"That'll be ten points Miss. Granger." Proffessor Mcgonagall yelled.
"Sorry" she answered. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Lunch time. Tora, Lucifer, and Ed were all sitting around a computer that seemed to be created out of light. Harry, Ron and Hermione wandered over and sat close by.
"So what the hell are you two?" asked Ron. Lucifer smiled as he took out his flask and started unscrewing the top.
"What do you think we are?" he asked.
"Some sort of Dark Angels?" guessed Hermione.
"Wrongy mundo." Chimed Ed. Lucifer poured the red contents of his flask into a goblet for them to see. He took a short savoring sip. When he smiled a sharp delicate fang slipped from beneath his lip.
"What's that?" Harry asked pointing to the goblet. Ron was transfixed on Lucifers fangs. Harry didn't seem to notice.
"Blood." Lucifer stated matter of factly as he swirled it around like a fine wine before taking another sip.
"Vampire!" yelled Ron almost falling back scared.
"Now you've got it my friend. Don't worry though were being properly fed. No live feeds for now." He teased
"But the wings?" Hermione asked but she didn't receive a reply. Tora squealed in delight, Ed had broken into the Nerv Headquarters Web site.
"Hey Luci look here you can even see footage of the apartments where Shinji stayed. You want a look?" she asked. Harry and his two friends gathered around to see along with Lucifer. Edward tapped the screen and a mini movie opened up. It showed a red headed girl running after Shinji screaming it was always his fault while a drunk Misato sang in the background. Suddenly a large penguin walked by drinking a beer as well.
"Aw, I miss that guy." It was Misato. She must of saw it as she walked by. She didn't stop though.
"Man and I thought our place was crazy." commented Ron.
"Hey you haven't even seen crazy. Ed bring up my web page." Tora said proudly.
"Right, ooooh wheeeee!" sang Ed as she typed frantically.
"There."
"Bring up my web cam from two weeks before school started."
"Okay Dokay" She tapped the screen and a mini movie suddenly appeared. "Higher" "I'll fall" came Kyo's voice. Lucifer was trying to teach him to properly levitate. "No you won't" "Yes I will." "Higher" "No" "Higher" at the same time they spotted the infamous Kane rushing at Tora with two daggers seemingly trying to kill her while she fended him off with her own pair. Fighting and kicking with incredible speed they fought. It almost seemed as if Tora was merely playing with him. "Die Asshole!" she screamed, yet not real seriously as she kicked him in the groin. The boys watching the movie groaned at this. They watched as Kane fell behind the couch groaning. Just then they watched as Kyo fell hitting his head upon the hard wood floor. He had fallen from a long ways up groaning as he rubbed his head.
"Hey, what do you know, you fell." Said an amazed Lucifer.
"No Shit!" yelled a mad Kyo. Suddenly they took notice to a black and red haired girl hanging upside down like a bat from a bar hanging from the ceiling.
"Can I eat this?" she was holding up a penny.
"NO!" everyone screamed in unison. She seemed to be a little hurt but it was for her own good she didn't eat the penny. Suddenly Rafe appeared along with some other odd looking creature. That's when the movie ended.
"Insanity galore baby Yeah!" yelled Tora. Ed laughed too.
"Okay you got me, your place is the most chaotic." Ron said still staring at the screen.
"That was a slow day, you should see us on a chaotic one." Groaned Lucifer.
" That's not chaotic!" Hermione cried out in disbelief. Could things of gotten any weirder at their place.
"Oooohhhh, were going to be late for Mr. Shido." Wined Ed.
"Better get going." Sighed Tora. The group quickly made their way to their way to the awaiting class.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Today's class was more of a history lesson than a defense class. But as Mr. Shido put it one must learn from the past in order to prepare oneself for the future. Well he went on about all the ancients of the world; those who have seen history unfold before them. Then came the topic of the ancient 13 who are believed to be the first vampires in existence. Tora and Lucifer snickered and coughed as Mr. Shido went on about the individuals who made up the ancient 13. He read and tried to put a few trivial facts into his speech to keep the classes attention. He came to the final two of the thirteen
"The two twins have never truly been identified. The sister has been described by the few who claim to have seen her as a tigress. Very protective of those she cares for. She is said to have protected a church for many years against invaders until the locales forced her away for fear of what she was. The brother on the other hand has had very complex descriptions. Some have proclaimed him an evil monster and others have described him a loving brother. But since so few have been proven to ever see them it is still hard to tell for sure what they are like. Yes, Miss. Tora " He raised his eyebrow. This was one student he wished would keep her hand down.
"What were their names?" she asked sweetly. This was too simple. He noticed Lucifer sitting suddenly very serenely with a look of pure mischievous upon his face. "Hold on, let me see." Shido picked up another book flipping through the pages until he came to the passage he was looking for.
"Ah here it is. The twins names have never been proven but they are believed to be called Lucifer and Tor, oh boy." He finished. Realization finally dawned on him but he still couldn't believe it. Could these two really be the ancient twins? He looked up with a look like he may be sick. The two twins were laughing pleasurably with their selves. Ed had figured out their secret long before, they were surprised it took this vampire so long to figure it out. They disappeared and reappeared standing on Shido's desk. They had on long robes of black with blue sashes upon their waists and arms. They had an almost malicious look upon their face as they stared out at the stunned class. Tora's high heel red shoe's peeked beneath the robe revealing red lacing that went up her leg. They giggled suddenly.
"Okay well I guess that explains a lot, now will you two please get down from there." Replied Shido who was now holding his head with a sweat drop hanging from his face. These two young ones seemed to enjoy giving him a headache.
"Okay." Suddenly the two were once more at their desk in their normal wear. The class starred with fear at them for the rest of the class. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay let me get this, the two of the oldest creatures and probably with the strongest magic at that come here to learn magic?" Hermione asked.
"Well it's more along the lines we came here to have fun!" sang out Tora.
"More or less what she said." Lucifer sighed.
"Okay, well now I think I'm getting a headache too."
"Why?" asked Tora.
"Never mind, pass me a biscuit." Sighed Hermione.
"Ed likes pumpkin juice." Sang Edward as she wiped her mouth. Suddenly Ein rushed through the great hall barking at Mrs. Norris. She was running for her life.
"Ooohh, looks like fun Ed wants to join." Ed suddenly jumped to the floor and ran on all fours after Ein. Just then came Filch screaming after them to leave Mrs. Norris alone. He rushed past trying to catch up with them. Tora simply shrugged her shoulders and got on all fours like Ed and pursued Filch and the rest of them.
"And I thought where I came from was insane." Sighed Ranma as a sweat drop fell from his head.
"I agree." Akane sighed watching the weird chase unravel in front of them.
"Eat Mrs. Norris!" screamed Fred.
"Yeah, eat her, eat her!" echoed Duo
"Your all nuts, you know that." Sighed Shinji.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay Shinji were getting the next one if it kills us." Duo said sternly as he pounded his fist into his hand.
"Okay" sighed Shinji. Shido had taken out a few Night Breeds that had tried to storm the castle earlier and this made Duo even madder. He had his supped up Gundam and nothing to use it on.
"I'm tired of everyone else getting the action while were left there to stare. Well show them this time. Hey Shinji, Shinji, you awake?" He looked out of his cockpit at the silent Eva. He couldn't see inside.
"What, what, Yeah." He yawned. Two o'clock in the morning and Duo still refused to sleep.
"Hey boys I think you missed something?" It was Tora she was sitting on a tower roof pointing to a group of demons walking by the looming mecha's. The two jumped into action by stepping on the creatures and turning them into a puddle of squished goo.
"Ha, Ha we got em for a change!" yelled out Duo.
"Eeeeewwww" Tora sneered as she floated down to the ground. The two pilots looked to see what she was talking about. The mecha's were covered with the green ooze from the knee's down.
"Aw man I just waxed this thing." Complained Shinji.
"Eeeewww, man." Sighed Duo. Tora giggled
"At least I don't have to clean that up, oh and boys, that bloods flammable." She continued walking by. Spike suddenly walked up the path lighting his cigarette.
"Hey" he waved coolly.
"Hi." Tora waved back as she walked away. Spike threw his match in the direction of the two mecha's which ignited.
"What the?" he raised hi eyebrow as he watched the two machines run around trying to stamp out the flame. Eventually they ran into each other knocking their selves into the lake putting out the flame. Spike shrugged and continued on his nightly stroll.
"Duo."
"Yes Shinji."
"Remind me never to listen to you again."
"Okay pal."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey my bra's gone again."
"Mine too."
"This is weird"
"My panties are missing."
For the past few weeks' girls intimates have been disappearing from their dorms. Every ones been trying to catch this thief but to no avail.
"Man if I didn't know better, naw can't be. There's no way he could get here." Akane sighed. And yet it sounded so familiar. They all traveled down to the great hall where that seemed to be the only topic on everyone's mind.
"Why would someone only steal the girls panties?" asked Ron.
"Probably Malfoy, always knew he was a bit of a pervert." Came Harry snidely.
"They Slytherin girls as well as Hufflepuff and Raven Claw has all been experiencing the same problems." Hermione sighed. Suddenly Professor Mcgonagall Stood up and echoed to the whole school.
"Okay look whoever stole Madam Hooch's and my underwear please return it. This is quite childish and if the culprit persists drastic measures will be taken. Thank You."
"Okay that is one thing I never wanted to think of while eating." Cringed Ron.
"Yeah." Harry muttered.
"Okay vampire, we all know your doing it. You already look so much like a girl, pervert anyway you're always prowling the castle at night, fess up." Draco Malfoy hissed to Lucifer.
"I wouldn't try picking a fight with me moron." He hissed back.
"And why's that? You're going to kill me?" he laughed.
"No, but there's things so worse than death that I could send your way, remember who I am you asshole." With that Lucifer sent up a huge fireball from his hands that singed Malfoys eyebrows. He decided he had better things to do. Ed and Tora clapped their hands and whistled happily.
"Ed likes do it again, do it again!" she cheered.
"Lets have charred snake shall we?" asked Tora
"Yes, Yes, Ed hungry." They looked to each other and burst out laughing.
Ranma looked over to Akane with a raised eyebrow. Could it, naw no way he thought. That perverted old oompa-loompa could never find this place, then yet again...
Tora walked along the corridor with her brother Harry, Hermione, and Ron. They stopped to chat by one of the staircases for a second when Harry noticed a distracted gaze upon Tora's face. She suddenly pulled out an unusually long sword out of her robe pocket.
"Hey you can't brandish that in here!" yelled Hermione. Had this crazy girl truly lost it? A malicious sneer spread across Tora's face, a small fang showing beneath her lip.
"Three, two, one, DIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE!" she screamed twirling around. Harry was surprised to hear metal meeting metal. There before Tora stood a man with his hair drawn back in a ponytail. Hey wasn't that the man from the mini-movie he thought. The two danced a deadly ballet. Metal clashed as students backed away. They went round from round until the young girl kicked him in the crotch sending him to his knees where she pushed him back with one hand. She suddenly struck below his cupped hands forcing the sword into stone. The man looked like he was scared beyond belief. She knelt down and with drew what looked like some relic cross from her pocket and forced it onto the mans forehead where it singed the flesh. When she withdrew it there was a large red mark where the cross-had been.
"Naughty, Naughty, Kane you know better. Next time I might plunge that sword a little higher if you know what I mean." She sneered with an odd sweetness. He shook his head quickly.
"Oh my." Hermione said stunned. "Bloody cool!" yelled Harry and Ron. Suddenly an eerie voice came from behind them.
"May I eat them master." It was Azeusa. She sat perched upon the banister tilting her head as if a puppy waiting for it's command.
"No Azeusa, not now." He replied as he started to rub his head. The three stared at them not knowing to run.
"She's a little touched in the head you know, just yell if she tries anything." He assured them. They gulped in unison.
"Um, Azeusa honey, where's Kyo?" asked Tora.
"I'll never tell." She sang eerily. Her gaze went to the ceiling. All of them looked up to see a young long black haired man hanging from the ceiling with crosses surrounding him. The roped bounded him and suspended him by his feet while what looked like pair of Kane's dirty socks was stuck in his mouth. Tora noticed the crystal was still around his neck protecting him from the sun luckily. Tora shot up with her wings carrying her. She quickly severed the rope, which sent Kyo falling to the floor.
"Ooops sorry." She waved nervously before ascending downward.
"Loons that's what you created Lucifer, a bunch of freaking loons!" Kyo ranted. Suddenly Tora jumped on him kissing him on the lips. Harry, Ron and Hermione's mouths dropped open. Tora turned to look at them.
"What vampires can't have girlfriends?" she asked sarcastically.
"He's.." stammered Hermione.
"He's all mine, isn't that right my little darling."
"Ahhh, yeah, okay, God this is weird." He stammered. Tora tilted her head as in how.
"I mean I haven't been in the daylight and around so many people in centuries." He explained.
"Well let's go take a tour, my treat." Tora cooed.
"Hey what about class." Yelled Hermione.
"Ah, Forget divination, I'm going on a stroll with my little Kyo." She waved back suddenly not caring about class.
"She's fallen hard for that fledgling of mine." Lucifer said with his eyes closed. He opened the in a sudden smirk. "Hey I've heard that word before what is it." Ron asked
"Simple, I turned these three into what they are. They are my students in a way my children."
"What!" yelled Ron.
"Oh don't worry with those three plus my sister I don't need anymore headaches. I'd rather throw my self upon a cross than create another. Really Kane get up off the floor, one would think you would of figured out to use a cup when fighting her." He walked off to class waving his hand dismissively behind him.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"So who are you taking to the Yule Ball this year?" asked Duo.
"Don't know." Replied Shinji.
"I'm going with Kyokins!" squealed Tora.
"Spike said he go with Ed. He said he had nothing better to do, yep, yep." Ed chimed proudly.
"And she's proud of that?" asked Ron.
"How about you two?" asked Lucifer.
"Ron's taking Hermione and I'm going with Ginny since she couldn't go otherwise." Answered Harry.
"I'm afraid to say that girls don't want me to go near them here. Hmph, fascist bigots, just because I'm a blood drinker." Lucifer stated Snidely.
"Awwww, I know. You can be my escort Luci Baby. That way I have a man for each arm. Always wanted that actually." Tora chipped up.
"Uh, yeah sure", replied Lucifer raising his eyebrow. His sister was so odd at times.
"Hey I heard Snape Got a date with Faye." Commented George.
"Yep, Yep, Faye got BIG diamond from greasy man. Said he have more if Faye went with him, Yep Yep." Sighed Ed
"Okay on that note, Ranma who you going with?" asked Duo
"Don't know haven't gotten to that yet" he sighed. He hadn't thought about it yet. "Ooooooh no, I have Idea, Ranma like blind date, no?" asked Tora. She sounded amazingly like Shampoo. This put Ranma on edge for a second.
"uhhh, why?" he asked not sure if he wanted to hear the answer.
"Tora know very pretty girl, very sweet and kind. She a hot mama yes, yes. You like. I know you will. I set up right now, yep, yep." She cheerfully rose out of her seat and left.
"No, don't come back here you insane.. oh well." He slumped back into his chair. Well she said she was sweet and kind. What could it hurt.
"Akanechan have you found date?" asked Tora. Akane was startled; she sounded a little like Shampoo when she spoke like that.
"Ummmm.. no, why?" Akane asked as she raised her eyebrow to this odd question.
"I know a hot boy who has been eyeing you lately. A real ladies man I say. He too shy to speak with you. I set up date yes?" she tilted her head in question.
"A ladies man huh?" she asked.
"Yes, Yes, if I didn't already have two dates I would take him. Hey if you don't take him I'll take him anyway." She smiled evilly.
"No, no I need a date anyway. Can I know his name?" she asked.
"No, no, no, he made me promise him that I wouldn't say until the dance."
"Alright then." She replied.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Okay lets see your traveling spells class." Hissed the potions master. Snape walked down the lines of cauldrons to see how the students did. He came to Miss. Tora's cauldron that was stirring frantically.
"Why Miss Tora you're potion seems lavender, it's suppose to be purple. Ten points from Gryyfindor." He hissed.
"uh-uh, it's supposed to be lavender." She chimed sweetly.
"Miss. Tora don't sass me that potion couldn't make a speck of dust travel here nether less anything larger."
"Here watch Mr. Severus." She quickly kicked the cauldron over with her leather boot sending the contents flying to the floor. The potions master cursed. "Damn silly girl looked what you did!" he yelled. Suddenly a circle of light was sent up into the air and two large objects ejected out of the air.
"What the.." he hissed. Soon the light dissipated and a Blue haired girl and a girl with red hair stood up. The red head yelled in Russian and then spied the familiar Shinji.
"You, You did this didn't you stupid idiot." She yelled.
"Me, I didn't do it!" he yelled back.
"It's always your fault fool!" she yelled chasing him as if to crème him.
"Idiots." Muttered the blue haired girl.
"Ooohhhh. I made another match. Match maker, match maker, make me a match, find me a find catch me a catch." Tora sang.
"That girls truly off her rocker!" exclaimed Duo as he watched his friend get beat up by the violent red headed girl.
"Ahhhh, know I know what Shido is talking about. I have a headache now." He sighed as he rubbed his temples.
"Shut up girl!" he hissed at Tora who suddenly stopped singing surprised. She suddenly gives the victory sign and stand yelling.
"I brought through two very big specks of dust Mr. Severus!" she yelled. A sweat drop formed on his head as he sighed.
"Can I have extra credit." She asked.
"No!" he yelled. She snapped her fingers
"Aw, man, oh well, Match maker, match maker.." she sang.
"Doesn't this girl ever shut up." He sighed once more. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"I can't believe I've been whisked away to some stupid world where I'm being expected to protect stuff I have no clue about and to top it all off I'm here with silent girl and the stupid wonder." Complained the newest addition to the Gryyffindor house.
"Match maker, Match Maker." sang Tora and Ed in unison.
"and there they go again." Sighed Hermione.
"So want to go to the ball?" asked Duo. He explained to Rei what it was and she accepted.
"Hmph, now I suppose you'll have to escort me to this ball Shinji." Coughed Asuka.
"Me, why me?" he asked.
"You're the only one I know here stupid. Any way you should be pleased to be taking a beautiful girl like me to a ball." She stated confidently.
"Oh, boy." Sighed Shinji.
"What!" she yelled not pleased he was not ecstatic to be taking such a lovely girl. They started their fight once more with Shinji running away while the red head tried to kill him.
"DIE!" she yelled as she gave him a shot to the head. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey Ranma!" Ed rushed down the hall to the pig-tailed boy waving.
"Ed was told to say your date shall wear a pretty blue dress and red rose in hair." She gleefully smiled.
"Um okay." He answered as Ed ran away giggling. Please tell me she didn't set me up with Ed he though as he proceeded to class. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Oh Akane," chimed Tora as she entered the girls dorm.
"Yeah" she replied. She very rarely saw Tora in this room. She always preferred to sleep with her brother. They tried every possible means to break her habit but it was useless and they had long given up.
"You're wearing your blue dress right?" she asked.
"Yeah, I already told you that." She replied.
"Okay, just put this in your hair." Tora threw a rose onto Akane's bed. She picked it up and looked at it.
"It's so pretty." She cooed.
"Knew you like it. Oh your date will be wearing red and white dress robes so you know. You'll know him when you see him." And with that she disappeared once more. I wonder who it could be thought Akane. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The group of boys entered their dorm to find quite a surprising site. Tora and Lucifer were striped down to their skivvies getting ready to dress in their ball wear.
"Hi guys!" Tora called back as she turned around.
"Hey you can't do that here!" Yelled Ron.
"Why?" she asked as she walked over to retrieve her dress.
"She does it all the time at home. It doesn't phase me." He sighed as he pulled on a pair of pants.
"But, But," stammered Shinji. Tora pulled her dress on. It was black and cut short in the front and flared down long in the back. She placed the straps upon her shoulders and laced up her ribboned high heels and tied the top in a bow. It was too late to say anything now since she was fully dressed. She brushed out her hair and placed on her many bangles and large silver hooped earrings before deciding to exit. Lucifer was dressed in black leather pants and a black buttoned down shirt. Very unwizard like the group thought. He excited to find his sister.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Every one was gathered out side of the feat hall waiting. Tora was giggling gleefully as she paraded around her two dates. Kyo had worn his white poets shirt with vest and pants that were very similar to the period he once lived in. His long black hair was pulled back and tied with a piece of ribbon completing the look. Kane walked about with Azeusa in tow wearing their normal wear. Duo was talking to Rei who looked almost dead compared to the other chattering girls. Akane walked about trying to fin her date. Strange Ranma was the only one wearing red and white. Oh no, she suddenly realized what Tora had done. About the same time Ranma realized the same thing. He walked up to her quickly.
"Tora didn't?" he asked
"Ah, looks that way." She sighed while thinking he's supposed to be a real ladies man? Ranma was trying to figure out how Tora could think this tomboy was sweet and kind when he spoke.
"Ah, you want to?" he asked referring to the dance.
"Might as well." She sighed. Hey it could have been worse she figured. The doors opened and everyone walked in to the great hall which was decorated lavishly.
"Welcome children, enjoy." Was all the headmaster said as he sat down at his table. There were small round tables scattered around the edges while the center was left open so people could dance.
"Shall we my sweets." Giggled Tora
"I'll sit this one out, you two dance." Lucifer replied elegantly. The young couple quickly swept out to the dance floor dancing to the slow music in elegance. Shido was already out there dancing with the lovely Miss. Riho who tended to keep to their quarters.
"Ah, a man of my own time." Shido commented to Kyo. They had on similar attire but slightly different colors. Kyo nodded in response as he twirled Tora lovingly around. Everyone danced the night away sometimes to faster paced modern music and sometimes to the slower tempo's of old. Everyone saw the deep connection Tora and Kyo had for each other. They were in love. They also noticed how Akane and Ranma had a sort of unspoken love between them even though they so often tortured each other. Harry Ron and Hermione were sitting at a table along with Lucifer who watched his sister with great interest. Tora had exposed her neck as if beckoning Kyo to take a bite. He elegantly barred his fangs and pierced her tender skin. Her eyes went gold and she showed her own fangs as he drank her blood.
"He's hurting her!" Hermione practically screamed. Lucifer laughed letting his eyes go gold and revealing his one fang from beneath his lip in a crooked smile.
"No, she's sharing her power with him, making him stronger. Actually, it's a sign of deep love amongst our kind to do such a thing."
"Oh, sorry." She whispered sitting back down.
"Don't be, watch, even though he doesn't have any strength to offer her he will soon let her drink from him. As sign of his loving respect for her. They do make quite a cute couple don't they. Ha, at one time I regretted making him what he is, I felt sorry for him. But no longer, those two were truly made for each other. If I had to do it again, I would, no question. My sister has never been happier." He bowed his head briefly before looking up. Tora had taken her turn sipping from Kyo's jugular. She looked up to the four and smiled a cat like grin which was accentuated by her tiger like eyes
"She's relaxed, she show's her eye's." he said smiling.
"Your eye's are also gold Lucifer." Commented Harry.
"Hmm, I didn't take notice, but I suppose I am. Ah yes tonight we let our hair down as they say." He smirked.
Faye sat down next to Jet. She just got done dancing a dance with Snape. He was okay after you got to know him she thought. Jet looked almost disappointed. "Don't tell me that Hootch gal dissed you." She asked as she took a drink from her goblet.
"Looks like it." He sighed as he kicked his feet upon the table.
"Oh well maybe it was for the better." She sighed. She stared out through the crowd and spotted Ed with Ein. She had dressed up the little Corgi in a tuxedo for dogs and now was dancing around with him while Spike starred after her.
"Chosen over a dog" he sighed as he made his way back to where his companions were sitting. Misato sat at the next table, drunk and singing gleefully. The next song to be played was Fly Me to The Moon, which she sang unusually loud.
Suddenly a frustrated scream echoed from out of the hall. Madam Hootch entered chasing something with her broom trying to beam it upon the creature's head.
"I'll get you, you pervert!" she screamed. Her hair was all messed up and her green robes were ripped and soiled as if she fell many times.
"But my pretty we make such a cute couple." The creature yelled.
"Hey who lost their midget." Asked Tora.
"Grandfather Happosi?" Akane yelled amazed.
"Hey what's the perverted old ompa-loompa doing here any way?" Argued Ranma.
"This thing stole my bra!" yelled Madam Hootch once more. The little midget ran straight for Faye and landed upon her chest gloomping it.
"Ooooh, aren't you the pretty one." He laughed.
"Die Bastered!" she yelled as she flung the creature from her chest. It then landed on Misato who threw him across the room as well. Now both women were fireing at him with their guns. Everyone fell to the floor praying not to get hit.
"Come back here you perverted old monkey!" yelled Ranma as he chased the old man Followed by Akane who had her mallet.
"Really, can't you just stay home for once." She yelled. Now all the wizards were flinging spells at this intruder trying to freeze him but he was too quick.
"Ha, Ha, you can never catch me!" he laughed.
"If he finishes with because I'm the ginger bread man I'm out of here." Sighed Lucifer. Girls were screaming as the perverted old man ran underneath their skirts and glomped their chests. Everyone was going every which direction in utter chaos.
"That's it where's my Eva I'm going to stomp that thing." Roared Asuka as she threw the evil thing away from her. Ranma and Akane were in close pursuit skidding as they changed directions.
"Can't he stay still?" Yelled Akane.
"Come back here pervert!" yelled Ranma. Suddenly the midget jumped on top of a table and threw a bowel of cold punch at Ranma.
"Be quiet boy, you always like to ruin my fun." He said angrily. The contents splashed the young boy who was suddenly a red headed girl.
"That's it I'll kill you my self old man!" he yelled in a higher pitch voice. The few who took noticed backed off of the man fearing he was a powerful wizard. Tora laughed when she saw Ranme change.
"oooohhhhh, I see young boy took dip in spring of drown girl, thought I sensed a Junseyko cursed here."
"Yeah, now help me kill this thing!" he yelled. The midget now launched for Azeusa who had her arms stretched out and her fangs bared.
"Taste like Chicken!" she yelled happily prepared to make a feast of this creature and no one was going to try to stop her this time. The old man suddenly changed direction not wanting to get too close to this girl. Suddenly the evil ompa-loompa jumped for Tora who grabbed him by his head and threw him away from her out of instinct. Her eyes were full of anger and she hissed darkly wanting to destroy the thing that just did that. She had thrown the pervert straight through the window where he disappeared into the night to find more panties.
"Great, now he's still out there." Sighed Akane.
"When I catch him I'm mailing him by freight back to Japan." Groaned an angered Ranma. He had done so well keeping his secret hidden.
"So, you a cross dresser?" asked Duo.
"Shut up." Ranma groaned even more depressed.
"Okay buddy." He threw up his hands in surrender and walked away. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
