A/N: So… Not sure what to say… BUT I GOT A NEW SECRET HIDEOUT! Usually, I just make one in a closet that nobody uses anymore or somewhere like that, but this time, it's on a window sill! It's kind of dangerous, and people stare at me since I'm on the third floor, but it's awesome! Minus the mosquitoes of course…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{If You Read Last Chapter's Mini Message}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I swear that those people are bloody crazy," Ron exclaimed with a shudder. Neville looked at the Golden Trio curiously.
"Are you sure that those people are muggles?" He whispered, looking to his right and left as though to check if those people were back.
"They had muggle weapons, and they didn't seem to even know what a muggle is. Except for the dude with the frog hat, actually," Harry mused, absent mindedly twirling his wand.
Hermione crossed her arms grumpily. She just hated not knowing. "Those people are suspicious. I mean, who has a picnic on the top of a train?"
"They also used those… things that look like umbrellas. It was poking through the roof of our compartment, and when Dean tried to touch it, he was electrocuted!" Neville added, jumping at every little sound.
"Seriously, Neville, one would think that you're excepting for those people to come jumping in here!" Ron said, poking Neville's arm. Well, not that it was possible, of course, since they were riding on a carriage pulled by those invisible skeletal horse thingies (Thestrals)…
"Ah, are you guys talking about us?"
"Ushishishi, out of the way, Froggy."
"VOI! Are you guys going to go in or not?!"
"Aw, don't be like that~ Let's just all calm down and think positively!"
The passengers in the carriage (Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville) all jumped a foot into the air and screamed. Manly scream for Harry anyways. The four people who they had just deemed as mental psychopathic people jumped into the carriage through the window.
"Sempai, I think your face just terrified them," The Frog Dude said, not even saying anything other than 'What was that for…' when the Blonde Dude stabbed a knife into his frog hat. Neville almost fainted at that.
"W-what are you guys doing in here?!" Ron squeaked, completely forgetting about sounding manly.
Frog Dude just stared at him with those creepy blank eyes, "Nothing much. We just came here to kill you guys because there're no more carriages since our boss' sleeping. If we're in the same carriage as him, we'll certainly die."
"Oi, are we killing them or not?" Blonde Dude said impatiently, a fan of knives already gleaming in his hands. Harry gulped nervously, a hand slowly gripping his wand.
"OF COURSE WE ARE, SO JUST DO IT NOW!" White long-haired Dude yelled. On second thought, that might be his normal volume.
"You guys are crazy!" And with that said, Hermione stepped forward and shot stunning spells at them, but what happened next made the Golden Trio (and Neville)'s jaws dropped to the ground.
"Is that really all you peasants have? Barely a challenge," Blonde Dude muttered, chucking a single knife at Hermione. It was probably only to scare her, since it was an inch away from her ear. It did cut off a few strands of Hermione's hair though. It was possible that he missed, but it just didn't seem very likely.
"That's why we're even here in the first place. To make them be more of a challenge, isn't it?" Frog Dude commented. He'd been the one that deflected the stunning spell without even doing anything. The spell seemed to have just bounced off thin air and out the window.
"That firework thingy was just about as fast as a snail, you brat. If you want to even scratch us, you'll have to do better," White long-haired Dude grinned, flashing the sword attached to his left hand at them.
"Don't blame us for this. You have my condolences," Frog Dude saluted to them, though his forever neutral expression ruined all sincerity that he might have felt if he even had any in the beginning.
"WOW! THIS HORSES ARE EXTREME TOO!" A loud shout that rivaled White Long-haired Dude's resounded through Hogwarts' property. The dude with the colorful Mohawk squealed, clapping his hands together.
"That voice! Could it be…?" He leaned out of the window. "It is! Ryohei, over here~"
"OH, LUSSURIA!" A second later, a fourth person jumped into the carriage. He had cropped gray-ish white hair and a bandage across his nose. More bandages were wrapped neatly around his fists, and he wore a simple green long-sleeved shirt and brown pants. "THANKS! THESE HORSES ARE EXTREME, BY THE WAY!"
Harry winced and tried to soothe his poor ears but spoke anyways, "You can see the horses?"
Neville was shaking behind Ron, attempting to hide behind him. He looked like he was about to faint.
"Are those horses that special? They're hardly interesting. How is it surprising that we can see those dumb things?" Blonde Dude grinned widely, his overly pearly white teeth flashing at them. Harry felt the dude's gaze on him, and couldn't help but wonder how he could see through those bangs of his.
"Don't ask. He'll just say that it's because he's a prince." Harry jumped for the nth time that day when the Frog Dude just suddenly appeared beside him.
"Uh, right…" He said awkwardly. Weren't these guys going to kill them?
"Answer my question first, Carrot, unless you want to die. What's so special about those things?" Ron gulped when the Blonde Dude directed his gaze at him. The pressure on his gaze was so heavy with something like killing intent. But that was impossible, right? After all, they look about their age.
"Those horses that are pulling the carriages are called Thestrals," Hermione to the rescue! Ron slumped with relief, but straightened at once when the Blonde Dude began twirling the knives in his hand casually. He didn't trust a member of the 'crazy' group to not throw that at him for no reason.
"But Thestrals can only be seen by people who have witnessed somebody die before," Hermione further supplied before glancing curiously at the 'crazy' group. "But… that means that you've all witnessed death before?"
"You're underestimating us, you bitch. We've all witnessed death alright, quite often, actually," White long-haired Dude grinned sadistically. Neville fainted after he said that, and Ron barely managed to catch him and lay him on the seats.
"Ushishishi, no need to seem so surprised. It's like an everyday thing," Blonde Dude snickered, enjoying the shocked looks the three wizards and witches gave them.
"BUT I THOUGHT THAT YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO KILL PEOPLE IN THAT MAGIC CASTLE!" 'Ryohei' shouted, scratching his head.
Frog Hat Dude shrugged, "We're not allowed to, but since when have we ever followed rules before? And besides, we'll just find a reason to."
"YOU'RE EXTREMELY RIGHT! BUT SAWADA-," 'Ryohei' was interrupted by a shriek and someone crashing into the carriage.
"Hiee! V-varia!" The new person was a skittish teenage boy that looked around their age. His brown hair seemed to defy gravity and poofed straight up. The clothes he wore were punkish, a loose orange and white hoodie with baggy long pants. There were several rings on his fingers and a chain hung from his belt. At the moment, he was shaking all over like he was about to hyperventilate and staring up at the 'crazy' group whom he had just dubbed as 'Varia'.
"What are you doing here, Sawada Tsunayoshi?" White long-haired Dude glared at the teen on the floor.
"I-I'm sorry! Reborn kicked me in here and Gokudera-kun was blowing up the carriage and Big brother just jumped onto the horses pulling your carriage and Mukuro appeared and-," 'Sawada Tsunayoshi' ranted on and on, leaving the Golden Trio to gawk at them. Blow up the carriage? Jump onto the Thestrals? And who the hell was Mukuro?
"Uh… Excuse me, but do you know these people? If you do, I strongly advise you to bring them to a mental hospital for a check-up," Hermione said cautiously. 'Sawada Tsunayoshi' seemed to become even more depressed at that.
"I already tried… And you don't even want to know what happened to the mental doctor…" He sobbed dramatically, and that startled the Golden Trio for they did not realize that it's a daily life thing when you're a part of the Vongola.
"Ushishishi, bat-shit annoying old man, that doctor. I skewered him with about 50 knives," Blonde Dude laughed, and he said that so casually that he might've been saying that the White Long-haired Dude was loud.
"WHAT?! You can't just skewer someone! You're a murderer, you belong in prison!" Ron pointed accusingly at Blonde Dude. He merely grinned, and his toothy grin reminded Harry irresistibly of the Cheshire cat from Alice.
"Hah! Nothing, not even skewering, can beat slicing that dude up into pieces!" White Long-haired Dude shouted, swiping his sword/hand around to point threateningly at Blonde Dude, which he avoided having his throat sliced by leaning back a bit.
"But Boss blew him up into even smaller bits and pieces!" 'Lussuria' commented, and the other crazy dudes stopped fighting to think.
Finally, the White Long-haired Dude removed his sword from Blond Dude's throat. "Huh, guess you're right. It was funny though, since Boss blew the wall up as well."
"Yup, and the other peasants' expressions were priceless~" Blond Dude snickered.
"See why you don't want to know now?" 'Sawada Tsunayoshi' sighed before he perked up.
"W-wait, you guys are students from Hogwarts!" He suddenly slapped himself. "I'm so sorry! Please just forget about what you saw or heard!"
"That's kind of an impossible thing to do, you know," Ron muttered under his breath, but this 'Sawada' Dude amazingly caught what he said.
"I guess… Ah well, I better introduce them to you guys then." He stood back up and dusted off his clothes before he gestured towards the crazy dudes.
"These people are the Varia. The person with a sword and long white hair is Superbi Squalo, their second-in-command." Said person glared at them all.
"This person is Belphegor, but you can call him Bel ("Prince Bel" He cut in). Don't ask him how he can see through his bangs, but Fran might've already warned you about that." Bel flashed another grin at them even though Harry swore that he saw something metal glint from underneath his sleeve.
"Oh, and the one with the frog hat's Fran." Fran stared blankly at them.
"Lussuria's the one with the… colorful Mohawk hairstyle. He might want you to call him Luss-Sis, but Lussuria works." This person was friendlier and waved at them (And also gushed about how pretty Ron's hair color was).
"Their boss is Xanxus, but he's not here at the moment. Don't bother him if you ever see him though. I see that Levi and Mammon's also not here. Knowing Mammon, she probably just refused to come since she's not getting paid though," Harry heard 'Sawada' mutter to himself.
"Oh yeah, by the way, where's Levi?" He asked, looking expectantly at Squalo. The entire Varisa shrugged.
"Don't know, don't care," They said in unison. Harry got the feeling that they said and did this quite often.
'Sawada' scratched his gravity defying hair nervously. "I see… Haha… Oh, and the one with the white hair and a bandage on his nose is Sasagawa Ryohei."
"Well, at least we know their names, that is to say, except for yours," Hermione tilted her head in 'Sawada Tsunayoshi's' direction.
He held his palm up and pounded his fist on it, an enlightened look on his face. "Ah, that's right, I forgot to introduce myself!"
"He's copying me…" Harry heard Fran grumble with his flat voice.
"Shishi." No need for you to guess who that was.
"I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi, but you can call me Tsuna," Tsuna held his hand out to shake with Harry.
"Uh… nice to meet you," Harry said awkwardly. "I'm Harry, and this is Hermione and Ron."
They both said 'hi' to Tsuna and glanced wearily at the Varia. After all, who would trust anybody that just tried to kill them a few minutes ago? (Tsuna would, but they don't know that)
"TENTH!" Harry, Hermione, and Ron all jumped again when a person shouted loudly.
"Gokudera-kun!" The three of them looked at the window to see a teen that looked about the same age as Tsuna and silver white hair. He was pretty good looking, but the sharp look in his silvery green eyes when he glared at Harry made him look like a delinquent. He wore a black T-shirt that said 'Unidentified Mysterious Animals Rule the World' on it and a leather jacket over it. There were also rings on his fingers, even though he had more than Tsuna.
"Are you alright?!" The silver-haired person shouted. Harry realized that he was holding reins that were tied to the Thestrals and was steering them very close to their carriage. He could just barely see some people riding inside the carriage.
"Yeah. Is Chrome back or is Mukuro still here?" Tsuna replied before questioning the silver haired person.
Said person replied immediately, "That girl's back. Good thing that that pineapple-head went back or I would've blasted the carriage apart."
"No need to be like that, Gokudera-kun. Mukuro just likes to… Tease people." Tsuna didn't really sound convinced though.
"Hey, Tsuna, get on up!" A black-haired teen shouted from inside the carriage. He had stuck his head out of the window and had an easy-going grin plastered onto his face. His blue vest looked like a water-proof one and he wore a red T-shirt underneath with navy jeans. His black hair was spiky and short, and he had the same amount of rings as Tsuna.
"Yamamoto!" Tsuna seemed relieved, and Harry could sort of guess why. The black-haired man radiated a calm and soothing aura. Huh, how strange.
"Octopus Head, Yamamoto, is Kyoko on her way?" Ryohei questioned loudly. His first comment seemed to infuriate 'Gokudera-kun'.
"Yep! She and Miura-san are heading here with Kurokawa-san," Answered 'Yamamoto'.
"Oh, I see. Then MOVE!" The white-haired man suddenly shouted loudly, causing Harry, Ron, and Hermione to slap their hands to their ears. Not that it helped, mind you. 'Gokudera' and 'Yamamoto' scattered immediately upon hearing this.
"Give us some more warning next time, lawn-head!" 'Gokudera' yelled when Ryohei jumped right into their carriage through the window. It took a while for Harry to drag Hermione and Ron's jaws off the floor, and it also took them a long time to fit Harry's back into place.
"I'm really sorry for any trouble that we or the Varia may have caused. We'll be seeing you guys soon again though, I guess. Bye!" Tsuna waved before jumping out the window. The Varia followed them, and the carriage steered by 'Gokudera' pulled away to show the Varia sitting on the roof and Tsuna climbing into it.
And then they were gone, leaving the Golden Trio to shake themselves out of shock with difficulty before attempting to revive the still unconscious Neville.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[You should know that]~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"And now, I officially welcome you all back to Hogwarts!" Dumbledore announced grandly, arms spread. The wizards and witches-in-training cheered loudly. The candles floating overhead seemed to glow even brighter at this.
"Poor Neville, he's missing out on all this," Hermione commented, scooping up some mashed potatoes with her spoon.
"Yeah, not to mention this bloody amazing pumpkin pie," Ron added while loading about 6 sliced of pie onto his plate.
Hermione swatted his hand with her spoon. "You shouldn't eat dessert before dinner, Ronald Weasley!" (Is that how I spell his last name?)
"Sorry, sorry," Ron hurriedly apologized, though it was pretty much useless because his mouth was crammed with pie. That seemed to further irritate Hermione.
"And while you continue enjoying this feast, I shall be announcing some very important news," Dumbledore stated, causing Hermione to stop talking/scolding Ron.
"I'm sure that you all are aware that since there are no professors that are willing to teach Defense against the Dark Arts," The old wizard continued. There were many hushed whispers, and Harry couldn't help but notice how unpleased Snape was. Almost everyone knew that he wanted the position, but here Dumbledore was, saying that there was no one to teach the subject. Harry could only imagine how angry Snape must be.
"But I am aware that it is getting more dangerous out there, and that you all still need to learn how to defend yourself. So instead, I have added a new class in place of Defense against the Dark Arts." More excited whispering.
"I have invited some very… special but strong people to teach you that. I suppose that they would like to explain to you themselves about what you will be learning. It may be difficult for some of you, but I'm sure that you will all do relatively fine. So, without further ado, I would like our guests to come join us!"
Only silence followed Dumbledore's short speech.
"Ahem! Please come in!" Dumbledore called again. Nothing happened, and Harry saw Draco Malfoy snickering.
"Are they coming or not?" Ron asked irritated, but was hushed by Hermione.
"Wait, don't you hear something?" The boys listened carefully for anything that Hermione might've heard. At first they heard nothing, but when they did hear something, it came with a blast.
Literally.
