A/N Grenfell doesn't own Final Fantasy or Harry Potter.

Without out of the way a word of warning, I altered a few more things here, specifically summoning (kind of)

Kilika Temple

Startled into action by the screams, the two summoners and their parties quickly made their way down the temple's stone steps. Upon arriving at the main platform of the stairway, they spotted a number of pilgrims and villagers running away in terror of a large Sinspawn with a shall surrounding its body and a pair of tentacles on either side. As their Guardians spread out to secure the area and distract the Sinspawn, Yuna and Hadrian stepped forward.

Yuna quickly performed a graceful dance to call down Valefor. Hadrian smirked as he spotted the winged Aeon nuzzle slightly against the petite summoner. Deciding to fully join the fight, he went through the motions of a Yevonite prayer while muttering his incantation.

"Belief and Duty. Tempered fire to burn away impurity and ignite Faith. Show the world the intensity of your flames, Ifrit!"

Upon the completion of his incantation, a glowing red circle appeared on the ground and a horned brown and red bestial Aeon burst forth. Hadrian respectfully bowed to the creature before raising a brow to Yuna, who had her head tilted in confusion.

"There are more ways to summon an Aeon then dancing Lady Yuna, after all, I doubt every High Summoner was necessarily as graceful as yourself." Hadrian said in way of explanation.

After a quick nod of her head the duo began having their summons attack the Sinspawn. Ifrit used it's long claws to carve into the left tentacle as Valefor struck at the right with it's talons. While attacking individually, the two were able to take down the tentacles quickly, causing the Sinspawn to reveal itself from it's shell. As soon as it popped up, the fiend unleashed a poison cloud over the two Aeons. Ignoring the pain from the poison, the two creatures quickly countered. Ifrit using some of it's energy to cast a Fire at it while Valefor began to charge an Energy Ray.

Just before Valefor could finish charging, the Sinspawn retreated back into it's shelled mode and it's two tentacles re-emerged. Valefor was soon ready and fired off it's ray, quickly exterminating the two tentacles and forcing the Sinspawn to show itself. However, it soon found itself facing Ifrit's Hellfire. Soon enough the monstrous fiend had dispersed in a burst of pyreflies.

With the enemy defeated the two Aeons faded away as well, leaving two exhausted summoners behind to be attended to by their guardians. After checking over everyone and resting up, the two groups were finally able to get together and begin their journey to Luca.

S.S. Winno

Hadrian stood next to the railing, watching the horizon when he heard a voice behind him.

"You really seem to like the ship rails don't you Hadrian?" The silver haired guardian stated as he came out onto the ship's deck.

Hadrian smirked at his friend, "It's a good place for thinking after all."

Kadaj quirked a brow, "Having second thoughts about this pilgrimage?"

The dark haired hybrid shook his head, "The Faith revealed a few odd things, things that are leaving me with more questions that answers."

"Oh?"

Sighing, Hadrian stepped away from his position at the rail, "It doesn't matter I suppose Spira is my home... that is all that matters."

Above the duo, another conversation was taking place.

"You should tell him." Lulu stated firmly towards Wakka.

"I know that... it's just." Wakka began, "How do ya tell someone that.."

Lulu rolled her eyes, "You sit him down and tell him."

Wakka shifted nervously under the dark haired sorceress's stern look, "After the tournament.. ya."

Lulu sighed, "Whatever."

"Hey.. have ya heard anythin about this new summoner Lu?"

The black mage frowned thoughtfully, "The name Hadrian is familiar and there are only so many Guado hybrid running around. I have my suspicions but I would rather not share them until I know more."

Wakka nodded, "Ya, suppose your right. Well I guess we just keep an eye on the kid ya."

Lulu quietly nodded her head in acceptance of the plan.

Luca

The ships' arrival to the city of Luca was one of cheer and celebration. The city itself was still in the grips of excitement for the upcoming tournament. It was as they were walking around the port that the party was stopped by a large crowd of people, standing in front of a ship with Yevonite symbols on it.

Disembarking from the ship, was an elderly man with a multi colored robe and short white beard. Just behind him was the known form of Maester Seymour and an honor guard of Bevelle warrior monks.

Spreading his arms out wide the elderly man began to speak, "People of Spira, it is with great pleasure that I come to witness Luca's great Blitzball Tournament. Thank you for allowing an old man to celebrate his Fiftieth year as Grand Maester away from the troubles of our world and among the cheers of the youthful. Joining me today is Maester Seymour Guado, who as many of you should remember, is succeeding his father the late Jyscal Guado."

The audience gave a cheer for their religious and political leaders. From his left, Hadrian could hear Tidus asking Wakka who 'The geezer' was. Before Wakka could get over his sputtering over the obvious disrespect, Hadrian spoke up.

"That would be Grand Maester Mika, current leader of the Church of Yevon. Funny that you were not aware of that information."

Tidus looked to the ground and shifted nervously, "I.. uhh got to close to Sin's toxin..."

Hadrian looked at the blonde teen suspiciously, "Is that so.."

Looking to change the subject, Tidus decided to try a different question, "So why do the Summoner's have to take a pilgrimage before they can fight Sin?"

Hadrian hummed softly to himself for a moment before answering, "As I'm sure you have noticed from your own Summoner, the process of gaining and summoning an Aeon is taxing on the body, though for some Aeons it is easier than others. To not gain the Aeons in something of the proper order, would over-tax the body and cause us to die before even summoning the Aeon. It also gives us and our Guardians time to gain the power needed to keep Sin at bay while it fights the final Aeon."

Tidus nodded to himself before noticing Maester Seymour beginning to approach the group, "What do you think he wants?" the blonde murmured.

Upon his arrival, with a pair of Guado guards, Seymour was met by the two summoner's giving the traditional Yevonite greeting, their Guardians standing just behind them, "It is a pleasure to be in your presence your Grace, is their something we can do to help you?" they intoned.

Smiling slightly at the greeting Seymour addressed the party, "As nice as that greeting was, I find myself bored with formalities, now why is it that my little brother feels the need to suddenly become so distant with me?"

At the slight teasing, Hadrian broke out into large grin and much to the shock of Yuna and her guardians jumped forward to engulf the blue haired Maester in a hug.

"That's more like it." Seymour said with a slight chuckle.

Looking up at his elder brother Hadrian couldn't help but let out a small impatient whine, "Will you pleeease tell me who you have picked for my second Guardian now?"

Back with the group, Lulu frowned suspiciously, Wakka seemed more relaxed and Kadaj was sighing in exasperation.

Putting a finger to his lips, Seymour hummed softly in thought, "I suppose, I can give you a hint. He is a Defender for the Glories."

While pleased that he now had a better idea of what type of help he would have on his pilgrimage, Hadrian sighed in dejectedly at still not knowing who his Guardian would be.

Yuna couldn't help but question the conversation between the two siblings, "Why would you be assigned a Guardian, wouldn't one you have more of a connection to be more important than one who is simply skilled?"

Hadrian shook his head as he responded, "Ever since big brother took over after... Father's death, the Guado have grown to cherish us, I would trust any of my people to guard my life. The only reason I didn't bring one of the volunteers as my first was that Kadaj has been training to be my Guardian since near the day we met."

What followed was the group splitting up to go about their own things while in Luca. Hadrian arranged for stadium seats for the group, so they could watch the tournament together. Finally, the time came for the games to begin. Unfortunately, the Guado Glories only managed to get half way through the tournament before being beaten by the Luca Goers. Of course this did save Hadrian from being in the situation of sitting next to a rival group of fans and both parties were able to cheer for the Aurochs in the finals.

Soon enough the final match came. Wakka had been injured in the previous match and so he sat out for most of the game. Tidus, taking his place in the sphere, was able to give the Aurochs a fantastic lead. With three minutes to half-time, Wakka finally appeared on the field and switched in with Tidus. To Hadrian it appeared as though the Goers were saving their energy for the second half of the game, as they hadn't made any serious pushes towards their opponent's goal. As the buzzer rang for half time, everyone was excited to see who the new blitzball champions would be.

Just as the buzzer rang to restart the match however, fiends began to appear throughout the stadium. A number of Sahagin began attacking the blitzball players who were in the sphere. Suddenly, Hadrian spotted Seymour beginning to summon Anima. Knowing that the stadium would be safe, Hadrian turned towards Kadaj.

"Let's head out and help protect the civilians around Luca."

At Kadaj's agreement the two of them split off from Yuna's group and went in search of fiends.

Luckily most of the fiends in the city were largely weaker types that most people could dispatch, though there were a few Garudas and a Chimera or two. As the duo were dispatching fiends, they came upon a black haired child cowering away from a trio of Dingos.

Hadrian quickly double casted a Blizzara, the shout attracting the kid's attention to the hybrid, while Kadaj rushed over towards the final Dingo. Kadaj quickly finished off the Dingo as Hadrian approached the child, "You need to get to safety child, the stadium is just behind us and should be free of monsters, get their quickly."

The child stared up at Hadrian for a moment before nodding and quickly rushing off the way they had come.

Soon enough, the fiends were purged from the city. While Hadrian and Kadaj worked to help clean some of the damage, they noticed that Yuna's group seemed to have already continued their pilgrimage. Oddly enough there was very little damage and, outside of the stadium, most of it was largely superficial.

The party quickly found themselves standing before Seymour Guado, at the entrance to the Mi'ihen Highroad. Beside the Maester stood a dark skinned Guado with blonde, wavy hair. He wore a grey and black Guado Glories uniform with a high collar that covered the lower half of his face.

Smirking at his little brother, Seymour began to speak, "Hadrian, I would like you to meet your newest Guardian, Navara Guado."

The now named Navara bowed deeply to the Summoner, "It is an honor to be chosen to ensure your safety Lord Summoner."

Hadrian nodded politely, "I appreciate your service Navara, but please don't bow. If you are to be protecting me, we don't want formalities to get in the way do we?"

Navara chuckled as he straightened up, relaxing into a slightly laid back posture, "Mm, just so and please call me Nav."

After a cheerful goodbye to his brother, the trio soon made their way down the Highroad.

In contrast to the chaos that was Luca, before and after the fiends showed up, the Highroad was infinitely calmer. Along the way they were able to stop and talk with other travelers along the path. It was when they had intercepted a common fiend from attacking a young man that Hadrian discovered Nav's talent as a White Mage. With a quick applications of Protect, Shell, and Haste the group was able to quickly dispatch all the fiends they came across up to Rin's Travel Agency, which happened to be located near the last quarter of the Highroad.

At the agency, they came upon the signs of a battle between a group of people and a large fiend.

"Hello travelers! You are quite lucky to have arrived when you did, much sooner and you might have been caught up in this mess as well."

The shout came from a blonde haired Al Bhed wearing a yellow open vest like shirt and blue and black pants, stuffed into his boots.

Nav watched the Al Bhed suspiciously as Hadrian politely spoke to the blonde, "What is it that happened here, sir?"

The Al Bhed sighed, "Name is Rin kid. As for the trouble well, the recent passage of chocobos had attracted the attention of a Hunter. Thankfully, Lady Yuna was here to protect the birds and us. Thanks to her, we still have plenty of rides for people who want to get through the Highroad quickly and safely."

Giving a slight, yet strained smile Hadrian bowed his head lightly to Rin, "Thank you sir, I am glad that your business wasn't harmed unnecessarily."

After making sure their supplies were stocked at the Travel Agency, the trio opted to continue there way on foot. This allowed them to work on their abilities and ensure traveler safety. Hadrian had even managed to get to the second tier of his elemental spells, finally having them caught up with his blizzard tiers. Kadaj on the other hand had managed to finally eliminate the worst of the side affects from taming beasts, at least with the lesser ones, larger or more intelligent beasts still gave him a lot of trouble.

Soon enough they found themselves at the entrance to Mushroom Rock Road, where they had heard a large scale operation to fight Sin was to take place.

A/N Ok so I have been thinking and I might include some of the other Final Fantasy's in this in various ways.

I hope you enjoy!
