Going Against the Storm

Twilight/Harry Potter Crossover

Warnings: Touches on the subject of child abuse, sexual abuse, self-mutilation, torture, and death in children. Warned enough? :P

AN: Next chapter up and running! I hope that this chapter clears things up for people! I have made this one into POVs to help with the 'emotional bonding' like some people wanted to see. I agree that it needs to be seen for the story to work, so I'll try it out :) Please give criticism! I promise, I won't try and bite and your heads off anymore :)

Also, please go to my page to take the poll I have. It would help me :)


Regulus/Harry

''I give up.'' I declared with whine and pushed the papers off the lunch table.

Emmett watched on with a grin as the boys laughed at me. I saw Alice roll her eyes before bending down and picking up the two packets that I had received in that maths class. Everything was a mystery here! What is this…nonsense?!

''Awe, don't give up babe. I'll do it later, so don't worry.'' Emmett promised before giving a peck on my cheek.

''You better.'' I mumbled half-heartedly and took a bite of the salad and saw Alice stack the papers neatly. ''Burn them, my long lost twin.'' I teased.

Alice giggled chimes. The rumor now going around this school was that Alice and I were long lost twins that Carlisle had looked for. It was pretty interesting yet disappointing that I was so similar to the pixie vampire. Though I heard that I was just as beautiful was something else.

Only Cedric had called me beautiful before. Emmett stated I was cute and beautiful, but hearing it from him was so different. I loved it either way, but Cedric had made it special. The first person to think I was beautiful, not for being a Potter child; but for being me and him loving me for me.

''Now, now, now, Regulus.'' Alice wagged her finger at me and passing me her milk that I wanted. ''You are a prodigy child, remember? You have to do your work.'' She winked at me.

I grumbled about setting her bed on fire, and Jasper chuckled and tapped my hand in a reprimand.

The other rumor going around: I was the lost prodigy child that Alice's and my parents had. Just from looking so good I guessed. One girl, Jessica Stanley I think, she had said to me that I was the most gorgeous of the bunch as she stuck out her chest ''seductively''.

Good Merlin these Americans and their seductive techniques….Hermione was better at seduction that these girls, and she was practically my sister! Hermione though…she had natural beauty that she grew into in such a short amount of time in Hogwarts. She had perfection inside and out like Ginny and Luna, but she never flaunted it. She never saw it like Ron and I had. Ginny knew all about her good looks and she used it every chance she could around Malfoy who had been star struck for the Weasley girl. Luna was just a dreamy girl who went by in life easily.

I wondered if she was still alive or dead. I hadn't seen her after the battle…

''I need to talk to Kingsley.'' I stated out loud, thinking that maybe he could find the ex-Ravenclaw seer.

Edward turned his eyes to me curiously; he was holding Rosalie's hand. ''Now?'' he asked.

I shook my head. ''No. Just need some help finding someone I fought in the war with. She was a good friend and I haven't heard from her in years.'' I informed.

Emmett looked interested like he always was when I spoke of the war. ''Who is she?''

''Luna Lovegood. She was a Ravenclaw in Hogwarts, and she fought in the war with me. She is very ferocious like her father, Xeno Lovegood.'' I grinned, remembering the final battle very clearly like the other battles that Luna engaged in, looking more like a goddess than a dreamy girl a year younger than I.

Alice blinked. ''Well, I think I see someone come to the house sometime this week with Kingsley. I think I see more…'' She trailed off, into a vision.

I stared at Alice. ''What? How many, Alice.'' I asked her, leaning to the table. I felt Emmett's hand on my back, comforting me and willing me to relax.

Alice shook her head. ''I don't know…maybe…three or four. They don't seem harmful…''

I sighed. ''Don't believe anything you see with wizards and witches, Alice.'' I told her, gaining her attention as well as Jasper's and the others. ''We are dangerous people, no matter how innocent we look and radiate. We kill and battle to the death.''

''Will they retreat if they have the chance?'' Jasper asked me, looking like he was planning a battle in his head.

I shook my head, grasping Emmett's hand. ''No. Retreating is the ultimate weakness in Wizards and Witches when in war or battle. We don't retreat when we start firing. Our magic doesn't care either way, but we are prideful to a fault, I suppose. It's kill or be killed where I come from.'' I stated, hearing someone walk behind us, trying to listen in, I suppose.

Rosalie huffed. ''Great. We have dogs that want to make puppies with you to deal with, now we have bloodthirsty people after you.'' She shook her head.

It didn't sound like an insult, more like…concern. Emmett must have heard it as well because he didn't jump to defense like every other time. And the puppies' thing…well…she wasn't wrong. I had spoken with those wolves a few more times since the first, and well…Jacob was a guard now. He didn't react like the others when they found out my animagus form.

A wolf. I was a smaller size than they were, but I was still a wolf.

''Think of it this way, Rosalie,'' I tried, hoping Emmett doesn't throw me down to a table and claim me for saying this, ''Me having a puppy as you so call them, would strengthen your treaty, due to a mating bond I have with Em.'' I joked.

''Start producing.'' Edward stated quickly.

''Don't even think about it.'' Emmett said at the same time as Edward, glaring at his brother for even making a joke like that. Edward didn't seem bothered from that giant smirk on his face as he hugged Rosalie to him as a shield pretty much.

''Coward, you use my Sire to protect you, knowing I can't fight her!'' Emmett pouted, his topaz eyes looking to be gleaming with humor as Rosalie looked victorious.

Alice giggled as I took a drink of the chocolate milk. ''This is really good.'' I commented on the drink.

''Chocolate milk?'' Emmett asked me, looking back to me.

I nodded. ''I never had any before. This is the first time, and it's quite good.'' I stated truthfully.

''Never? I thought you lived with muggles?'' Jasper asked quietly, seeing someone else pass by.

I nodded. ''I did, but I was never allowed any. Remember? The people I lived with hated wizards with a passion as much as they hated me.'' I chuckled and took another drink. Aunt Petunia had never even allowed me to have some after she had become nicer.

''Enjoy it then. They have those every day. Humans drink it all the time.'' Emmett said with a shrug, letting his arms rest across my shoulders.

I hummed. ''Can we leave now?''

The table erupted with laughter at my expense.

''No. We have three more classes to go to.'' Jasper chuckled.

I looked to Emmett, who happened to look back.

''Don't do that, Reggie.'' Emmett whined.

I continued anyways. It wasn't an order…so…HAH! I WIN SEXY VAMPIRE!

Wow…I really hope that I kept my occulmacy shields up so Edward didn't hear that, but coming from that stunned happy look: I failed miserably.

''I heard you.'' Edward whispered in a very excited tone.

I shook my head, avoiding the looks from the others. ''No you didn't.''

''I did! Rosalie, let's go.'' Edward stood, pulling up the confused and shocked blonde vampiress before walking away.

''Wow. I didn't think Edward could do that.'' Alice murmured to Jasper, obviously seeing something naughty.

Emmett began laughing, startling the muggles around us enough to jump out of their seats at the loud sound. I didn't. Emmett's laugh was lively and I loved it.

Ewe. I'm…happy…Oh gross.

Jasper eventually joined from all the mirth when Alice and I began laughing at what we knew Edward was doing with Rosalie all because he heard my thoughts for the first time.

Okay, so maybe this school thing wasn't so bad after all.


I sighed. ''Yes, Miss. Swan?'' I asked again.

This muggle girl, Bella Swan, was a real annoyance. She had met me in my maths class a few days ago and now she wouldn't leave me alone! I was at my locker, preparing to leave for the day. I was waiting for Emmett to come by like he promised, but the bulky vampire was late. See what he gets after school than…

''Regulus, have long have you known the Cullens? You never answered that, I mean.'' Bella stuttered, blushing a little bit.

I sighed lightly again. ''Alice is my younger sister. We were separated when we were young in London.'' I retold the story that Carlisle had said he put together.

I hated the story since it made me related to the barmy pixie, but they said that it gave reason for me being here and we looked alike. I wanted to kill Carlisle then, but those eyes from Esme stopped me from letting loose at the doctor that so kindly took me in and still is.

Bella looked a little more curious and I refrained from sighing. That was something I was doing a lot lately.

''So, you both lived in London? That's really cool. What is like there?''

I blinked. No asked me that before. They only wanted to know about the Cullens and Emmett and I. Huh, alright than, Miss. Swan.

''Well, it's actually similar to this place here, except more…'' I trailed off, trying to think of a word.

Bella raised an eyebrow. ''Lively?''

''Precisely.'' I smiled cheekily, making her giggle.

''Wow. Was London really large and open?'' Bella asked with so much curiosity.

I grinned and motioned her to sit down with me at the lockers. The people passing by us looked with shock. Probably because I was actually talking to someone. Bella sat down next to me, her knees to her chest and arms wrapped around her knees. I sat the same way, something I was used to doing to make myself smaller. Reflex I guess.

''London is always so…foggy, but you can see the history it has to tell.'' I began.

I spent about twenty minutes just talking about my old home and the ''boarding school'' I went to on my parents' will. I didn't say anything on magic and such, but she was still so enraptured in my tale. We stayed this way even when the halls were deserted.

I looked around the hall with a sad look. Emmett didn't come for me.

''I believe I have to head home on my own then.'' I stated to Bella with a small smile.

It must have looked pathetic from her eyes to soften to a mother's look.

''Were you waiting on your siblings and Emmett Cullen?'' Bella asked me.

I shook my head with a forced laugh. ''No. I suppose I'm not.''

''How about I take you home then? Just tell me where you live and I'll drop you off. We can make it before the rain.''

I looked back to the hall, wishing for Emmett to show up. But he didn't.

''Sure. Thank you, Bella'' I relented and stood up to leave with the odd muggle girl.


''Just stop here, Bella. I can walk down the drive.'' I told her, making her halt the roaring truck she had. It looked old, but it was so cozy. No matter how loud that engine was.

Bella looked to me with a smile. ''I'll see you at school tomorrow?'' She asked with such hope.

I chuckled and patted her leg in a friendly manner. ''Perhaps. I just might run into you.'' I teased, remembering the first day we had met.

I had literally run right into her when I wasn't paying attention to my path, knocking the both of us over to the ground in embarrassment. We had both stuttered out apologies while helping each other pick up our stuff.

Bella blushed, like I predicted, and laughed lightly.

''Bye.'' I closed the truck door before walking off as Bella drove off completely.

I watched her truck disappear before I dropped my pack to the ground and transformed into my animagus. I shook my black head to shake off the tingles of using my magic, and settled my large black paws onto the ground fully and relaxed. Emmett could scold me later after I chewed him out for just leaving me at the school after he PROMISED to come pick me up like he always did. I picked up the pack in my mouth, noticing it weighed almost nothing since Emmett did all my work so I didn't need textbooks.

I began my trot down the dirt drive way as rain began to pour down. I was soaking with by the time I reached the door. I transformed back swiftly just as the door opened, revealing Esme.

''Regulus sweetheart? What are you doing back? Where's Emmett?'' She asked, looking behind me, knowing he wasn't there. She was still a vampire.

''You tell me.'' I told her before walking inside, ignoring the fact that I was soaking wet and making a trail of water and dirt. I threw the pack down by the stairs. They work was ruined by the rain that hit the thin pack, but it really didn't matter.

Making it to the top of the stairs, I didn't see anyone but Carlisle who was stunned that was back without someone. Emmett namely.

''Regulus? Where are the others?'' Carlisle asked me.

''Like I know. Their cars were gone. I got a ride from Bella Swan.'' I told him before running up the stairs, trying not to cry.

Crying was weak! Remember that!

Carlisle was behind me the entire time as was Esme who was trying to talk me out of strapping on my wands and using wandless magic to let all my precious items go back to my truck that Kingsley had brought.

''Regulus, maybe Alice had a vision. Bella Swan has potent blood. It irritates even Emmett. Perhaps they couldn't...''

I cut off Carlisle. ''They all have classes with the girl! Why not just text me saying they couldn't be around me with her? Or why not just say we're leaving! Be stranded at a damned muggle school!'' I shouted, the Elder Wand heating up to my anger. It always liked me angry.

Carlisle looked sympathetic but he stood aside when I moved to leave. I had shrunken my trunk to be in my pocket so I wouldn't lose it.

''Regulus, please don't leave!'' Esme cried.

I blocked her out. I didn't think I could listen to her cry. It was so tragic and…wrong.

''Where are they?'' I asked Carlisle, standing by the back door and preparing myself to transform and leave. Perhaps I would go to the reserve for a little while. Stay with Jacob who worshiped me in a friendly way. He had gotten used to me being the Master and he was pretty good friend when he had clothes on. The others were pretty cool as well once they warmed up to me as the Master and now only a few of them wanted puppies. Namely Paul and Quil, the horny animals.

''Allow me to call them before you decide to leave, Regulus.'' Carlisle said softly.

I debated for a few seconds. I wanted to know where Emmett was, but I wanted to leave so much. The reserve of magic was calling to me to come to safety and away from my mate who left me at the school, but I had to know where he was.

I nodded.

I saw Carlisle take out his phone and begin dialing. He had it on speaker so I could hear I supposed.

''Yes, Carlisle?'' Edward's voice said over the phone.

''Edward Anthony, where are you and your siblings?'' Carlisle asked with such authority that made my wand tingle in appreciation to the tone. It always liked that stuff. How Dumbledore owned this wand was a mystery.

''At the school looking for Regulus. We can't find him anywhere. We all got detention for a threat made by EMMETT against Mike Newton for saying something about Regulus. Now: we can't find him and Emmett is going crazy.'' Edward summed up, making me scoff silently.

What a lie.

Carlisle sighed. ''Edward, Regulus is home because no one came to his locker to pick him up. He had no idea of this and Bella Swan gave him a ride back here. He's about to leave and Emmett needs to come home to explain himself to Regulus.'' He said quickly.

''Shit. Regulus, don't leave, okay? We're on our back now so just…stay there. Alice go start the damn car!'' Edward hung up after that.

''I know a lie when I see one, Doctor Cullen. Or in this case: hear.'' I whispered before opening the back door, letting the rain as I transformed into my wolf and dashed away before Carlisle or Esme could stop me.

I dodged a few trees and stones on the ground as I ran straight to the reserve. I hoped to find one of the shifters prowling around like they always did, and I thought I did when I saw silver-grey fur on the ground due to me running into the horse sized wolf.

So, I guess I was pretty strong.

I saw Paul's eyes look to me with shock and a little happiness at seeing me before he watched me burrow into his fur as I laid on the ground practically under him. I tried not to shake with my cries that were coming out as whines, but I think I may have failed, as Paul began to lick me in comfort – a wolf thing that Remus used to do as well on the full moons.

I stayed soothingly and comfortingly under Paul with the rain pouring down on both of us. Paul was taking the brunt of it. He wouldn't get sick as wolves didn't get sickness or anything along those lines. I most likely would from this cold wind blowing on us with the rain, but the warmth from Paul's wolf body was enough to prevent that hopefully. I sniffed at Paul in a thanks when allowed me stay in between his front paws and under his head and chest for a little while. Paul seemed to understand without the communication that his brothers and him shared.

Though I had the desperate urge to go back to the Cullens house from the pull with Emmett, I stayed planted underneath Paul for a few more hours.

Yikes…hope Edward couldn't read that thought.


There you are! Sorry, my internet is off so I'll be trying to write chapters until my internet gets back on where I'll post them :)
