A/N: See chapter one for author's note. Do not own anything of Harry Potter or Young Justice. In the previous chapter, I had Superman act that way with Harry, as I wanted them to have a sibling relationship. I am skipping the episode Denial and Young Justice comic issues #9-11, as they had no major changes from what happened in cannon. I am also skipping the first part of the episode denial because it does not involve the team. Robin was not in this chapter, and if you want to see why read issue #11 of the comic book series that accompany the TV show.


MOUNT JUSTICE
AUGUST 19, 19:39 EST

The team practiced hand-to-hand combat with Aqualad and Superboy in the ring at the moment. While the two fought, Artemis and Megan discussed other things.

"Kadur's um nice don't you think" said Artemis Crock, "handsome, commanding, you should totally ask him out. I'd say you should ask Harry or Neville out but he's already taken."

Megan answered with "Kaldur, Neville and Harry are like big brothers to me, but you know who would make the cutest couple? You and Wally; you're so full of passion and he's so full of uh…"

"It" finished Artemis for Megan, which set the two girls off laughing, while the boys in question were oblivious to the conversation going on. Harry with his superhuman hearing would normally have heard the conversation but he was busy talking to and kissing Hermione. Neville was likewise doing the same thing with Hannah Abbot, who had recently been put on the reserve spot for the team. Wally was meanwhile in his own little world while eating a banana and leaning against the wall.

Meanwhile back at the fight between Superboy and Kaldur, the former took down the latter and claimed that he learned the move from Black Canary.

Red Tornado came down from the ceiling and seized the attention of the whole group from what they were doing. Wally supersped over to Red Tornado and said in a marginally hyperactive voice "do you have a mission for us?"

Red Tornado in a monotone responded with "mission assignments are the Batman's responsibility."

Wally said, "Yeah well Batman's with the Robin doing the dynamic duo thing in Gotham. You're headed somewhere right; hot date or an um, mission."

Aqualad having to be the constantly calm one added that they would go only if they could assist Red Tornado, and in response Red Tornado brought up a recently taken photo of Kent Nelson on the holoscreen.

Red Tornado said "this is Kent Nelson, a friend. He is 106 years old…" and at this side Wally whispered "guy doesn't look a day over ninety."

As a reward for his rude comment Hermione elbowed Wally while Red Tornado continued on as if he didn't notice the interplay between the team.

"…And he has been missing for 23 days. Kent was a charter member of the Justice Society, the precursor to your mentor's Justice League."

Aqualad at this said "of course, Nelson was earth's sorcerer supreme, he was Dr. Fate."

In response to this Wally whispered into Artemis' ear "more like Dr. Fake, guy does a little advanced science, Gandalfs it up to scare the bad guys and impress the babes."

Wally stopped that train of thought when he heard an annoyed grunt from Harry who had obviously heard him, and could swear that he felt like his clothes were starting to feel a little warm.

Continuing again like he didn't hear Kid Flash he said "Kent may be on one of his… walkabouts, but he is caretaker to the helmet of fate, the source of the doctor's mystic might, and it is unwise to leave such power unguarded."

Megan took a step forward and said "he is like the great sorcerer priests and priestesses of Mars; I would be honored to help find him."

Wally then did a turnabout and with lightning speed raised his hand and said "me too, so honored I can barely stand it; magic rocks."

Artemis, Superboy (Harry was rubbing off too much on him), Harry and Hermione (Harry via his telepathic link to her had shared what Wally had said) rolled their eyes while Red Tornado took out a key and said "take this; it is the key to the tower of Fate."

Wally continuing his façade said to Megan "what are the chances that we both so admire the mystic arts?"

Harry muttered "what are the chances that Wally's turnabout damaged his brain?"

While Wally was too out of it to have heard Superboy, Artemis and Hermione had heard the comment and had to hold back a laugh at Harry's comment.

Later while on route to Salem via the bioship Artemis said "so Wally, when did you realize your honest affinity for sorcery?"

Wally seemed to want to avoid the topic as he said "Well I um, don't like to brag but before I became Kid Flash I seriously considered becoming a wizard myself."

Artemis rolled her eyes but held in a snort when she saw Wally's freckles move to spell out fake and then move back without anyone else noticing. She could swear she heard Harry snort and then Supermagus get smacked by what had to be both Hannah and Hermione at the same time.


SALEM
AUGUST 19, 20:22 EST

Megan who hadn't noticed the interplay said "We've reached Tornado's coordinates, but…"

At this Superboy finished Megan's sentence when he said "nothing's there"

Hermione and Harry detected a large amount of magic and Hermione said "I'm detecting with my mage sight a large concentration of magic."

In response to this Aqualad said to Megan "take us down."

Unseen by the team an abnormal looking cat had detected the bioship landing in its vicinity.


In an abandoned movie theater nearby Abra Kadabra was torturing Kent Nelson and told the man that he would stop the torture if Nelson said how to get into the Tower of Fate. Klarion was watching the torture on the stage that was done to Nelson with sick amusement, and told his cat who had just entered to be quiet as he was trying to listen to "the show." His cat familiar Teekl finally managed to get Klarion's attention and informed the lord of chaos about the arrival of the team.


Back with the team the four magic users of the team (Hannah, Neville, Harry, and Hermione) were casting magic in conjunction with each other trying to find the Tower of Fate. The four finally stopped and Hannah said "even with our most powerful magic we can only tell that something is there, we can't seem to pierce the protective wards around the tower."

At this point Wally stopped right in front of Artemis from his superspeed and said "nothing, this isn't simple camouflage."

Artemis with a hint of sarcasm then said "so what do you think, adaptive micro optic electronics combined with phase shifting?"

"Absolutely" said Wally before seeing Megan was next to him, and in response he added "not. Clearly mystic powers are at work here"

The magic users of the group and Artemis looked at Wally with disbelief.


Meanwhile across the street an eavesdropping Klarion asked Abra Kadabra if that was what he used for his invisibility, to which he got an annoyed yes from the man. With the two villains was Nelson with his hands tied up in front with rope, who instantly recognized Harry Potter when he saw him.


Aqualad then had a brain spark when he looked at the key he was given and said "a test of faith." Kaldur walked forward and said "stand behind me" to the group before sticking the key into seemingly thin air and turning the key.

This appeared to do the trick as a previously invisible tower suddenly became visible to the team. The team after having a moment of surprise entered the now visible tower, but when the group had all entered the door shut and disappeared.

Superboy was the first to notice this when he said "ah, where did the door go?"

At this point a spectral image of Nelson becomes visible to the group and said "greetings, you have entered with the key, but the tower does not recognize you. Please state your purpose and intent."

Wally took the opportunity presented and walked forward while he said "we are true believers here to find Dr. Fate."

The spectral image disappeared after giving Wally a strange look and then moments later the ground shook before opening up and swallowing the whole team. The team plunged down towards what was a pool of lava, but Supermagus grabbed his brother to stop him from plummeting any further and just hovered there. Megan saved Wally while Hermione managed to grab both Artemis and Aqualad.

Hannah was saved by her betrothed Neville Longbottom who stopped her fall with his ring. Artemis and Hermione both looked at each other and knew they were both thinking the same thing, that Wally West was the biggest idiot ever. Hermione even wondered if Wally was Ron Weasely's long lost identical twin.


The two villains and Kent Nelson were outside of the now visible tower of fate and Abra Kadabra shoved Nelson towards the door. When Nelson got to within a certain distance of the door the symbol of fate appeared in yellow at his head height on the door. The door then disappeared completely and revealed a set of stairs that the door led to. The three males entered the tower and when they were all in the door disappeared to anyone looking from the outside of the tower.

Nelson then said "the tower might not appreciate trespassers," and as if Abra Kadabra got tired of what he was hearing he pointed his fake wand at Nelson and said "mute."

A collar appeared from nowhere, put itself around Nelson's neck, and was accompanied by a look of pain on the face of Nelson. In front of the three males the wall at the end of the hallway they were in opened up and formed an entrance to another room. The three then walked forward and entered what looked like a nicely decorated living room. When the three were fully inside the room the entrance they had taken was unformed and became the wall behind them, making the room look like it had no entrances or exits.

Like with the group of teenager superheroes the spectral image of Nelson appeared and said "hello Kent, how unlike you to bring guests to the tower, especially one with such mystic power."

The collar Abra Kadabra had put on Nelson then lit up in red while saying in a voice almost identical to Nelson's "my friends come to help me."

The spectral image of Kent Nelson smiled like he knew something the villains didn't and disappeared from view. An entrance to what looked like an impossible set of stairs opened up in the wall on the side where the fireplace and the picture of Nelson's wife were. The fireplace and painting seemingly disappeared into thin air when the entrance was formed.

The stairs looked like they went nowhere despite the large number of them. After the three had entered the illogical set of stairs the separated walls rejoined leaving it like there was never any door in the room in the first place, and the fireplace and picture came back into existence.


Back with the teens Megan was sweating heavily while she was slowly getting closer to the lava. She said "having trouble… maintaining altitude…so hot."

Wally clueless as ever said "you certainly are," while Harry used his free hand and grabbed onto Megan to stop her unwanted decent.

Artemis just so happened to be close enough to Wally that she was able to reach over with her free hand and slap Wally upside the head for his stupidity.

Artemis then exclaimed "Wally," and got the indigent response of "hey, I'm inches above sizzling death; I'm allowed to speak my mind," and while Wally said this he was rubbing the area of his head that was hit.

Aqualad was also obviously in distress and said, "My physiology and Megan's are susceptible to extreme heat, we must climb out quickly."

Unfortunately the fliers of the group seemed to be very slowly drifting towards the lava as if the gravitational pull was slowly increasing.

Megan had a sudden brain spark and said with a distressed voice "hello Megan, we never truly answered the question. Red Tornado sent us… to see if Mr. Nelson and the helmet were safe."

A barrier formed in two halves and sealed off the lava from the teenagers, which also stopped the heat that was harming Megan and Kaldur from reaching them. The fliers lightly touched down onto the ground with relief, and after feeling the floor Aqualad said "this platform, it should be hot, but it is cool to the touch."

Taking the opportunity to flirt with Megan more Wally said "no worries megalicious, I' got ya."

Artemis seemed snap at this as she strode over to Kid Flash pushed him and yelled "enough!, your little impress Megan at all cost game, nearly got us all barbecued!"

Wally looked indigent as he said "when did this become my fault?"

Artemis answered just as angrily with "when you lied to that whatever it was and called yourself a true believer."

Megan interrupted this in a quiet voice with "Wally, you don't believe," and while Harry snorted KF responded with "fine, fine, I lied about believing in magic, but magic is the real lie, a major low."

Aqualad seemed to take this personally and said "Wally, I studied for a year at the conservatory for sorcery at Atlantis. The mystic arts created the skin icons that power my water bearers."

Wally continued to talk as if he knew all and said "dude, have you ever heard of bioelectricity, hey in primitive cultures fire was considered magic."

At this point Hermione interrupted and said "if magic isn't real then how can I do this?"

Hermione then waved her hand and a living cat appeared before she waved her hand again and it disappeared.

The rest of the team looked suitably impressed or (in Harry's case) attracted to her, but Wally shrugged it off and said, "That is just an ability to manipulate matter down to the subatomic level."

The four students from Hogwarts looked at Wally as if they thought something was wrong with him, and Wally added, "it makes sense."

Artemis said, "That is pretty close-minded for someone who could break the sound barrier in his sneakers."

Wally had a scientific explanation for that and proclaimed, "Everything could be explained by science."

Aqualad who was on his hands and knees said "let us test that theory" and then grabbed a handle on the ground like he was about to open a door.

Wally looked panicked and said with urgency "wait the backdraft from the lava will roast us alive."

Aqualad opened the door while Wally said this to show that on the other side of the door was a winter wonderland to the amazement of the team.

"It's snow" exclaimed Megan in surprise while Artemis said to Wally "do you ever get tired of being wrong?"

The team all slid into the snowy side and when they were all through the doorway that was hanging in the middle of the air shrunk to a point and then with a flash disappeared.

As if expecting Wally to have an explanation for this Artemis said "well!?"

Wally responded with "ever hear of string theory? We're in a pocket dimension", which made Artemis show clear exasperation with how stubborn Wally was.

Megan meanwhile noticed Nelson's walking stick and asked "what's that," which grabbed the attention of the whole group.

Wally with sarcasm said, "Maybe it's Nelson's magic wand" while Artemis walked over to get a closer look.

Wally then supersped over and grabbed the walking stick at the same time as Artemis which was when they both said they got it at the same time. The walking stick then started glowing yellow and picked up the two teens who exclaimed they couldn't let go of the stick. Just as the two started to go flying upward Harry who was closest to the two flew up and grabbed onto the walking stick as well to try and stop whatever was happening. As a result, all three of them uncontrollably flew up and disappeared in a flash of yellow light to the surprise of the other teens.


In an unmarked section of the stairs that made Hogwarts' staircase look orderly the two villains were walking with Nelson, with Klarion like a little child asking every other second if they were there yet.

Abra Kadabra obviously got tired of this as he said "tell us where to find the helmet," and then ripped off the mute choker from Nelson's neck.

When the choker was off Kent Nelson with a smile said in a hoarse voice "can't having too much fun."

Abra Kadabra obviously did not like the answer and used his wand to electrocute Nelson, causing the man immense pain and sending him to the floor.

In a sarcastic voice Abra Kadabra said "still having fun," and got the response from Klarion of "I am, zap him again, or dump him off the side and watch him splat."

Abra aimed his fake wand at Nelson and sent another large jolt of electricity at the downed man, when Klarion who was watching like he was enjoying the torture scene was reminded by his familiar that they still might need Kent Nelson.


Back with the group of teens that were in the frozen wasteland, they had decided to walk on and see if they could find anything to help them. Hermione had applied heating charms to Hannah's clothes so the girl would not freeze while Neville put up a green force field that hugged his skin to keep himself warm. Hermione, Aqualad and Megan were immune to the cold due to their physiology and did not need anything to keep them warm.

Megan then said to the group "I don't understand Wally, it's almost like he needs to believe the impossible can't happen."

Hermione responded to this with "it's like what many of non-magical are like, in fact the family who Harry until recently lived with used to be just as bad as Wally. Of course they are much better now."

Aqualad added that Wally uses science to explain things that he cannot control and that if Wally admitted that magic existed then it would be like relinquishing that control he felt he had.

Suddenly a portal that looked like it led to the same set of stairs that the villains and the captive Nelson were on appeared. The group proceeded to walk towards the door to see if it would lead them to their friends.


With Harry, Artemis, and Wally, the three of them appeared close to where the villains and Nelson were. Wally saw the villains and identified Abra Kadabra from the encounters The Flash has had with the villain.

Nelson from his position on the floor with a look of relief on his face said "well will you look at that."

After Nelson said that, the walking stick that the three teens still had a grip on glowed yellow at the same time Nelson did. The man then flew over and to the stick and in the process knocked the villains to the floor before either villain could stop him towards his stick. The teens suddenly found that they were easily able to release their hold on the staff, and Nelson took hold of the staff.

He pointed it into thin air and with a beam of light a set of double doors appeared as he said "in here" to the three teens. The three teens in response entered the elevator with Nelson to get away from the villains.

Klarion then started throwing a tantrum and started throwing chaos magic at the doors to no apparent effect.


The three teens and Nelson were in an elevator going up with an awkward silence hanging in the air.

The silence was broken when Kent said "um I'm Kent Nelson by the way," and Wally maturely responded with a "no duh." This immature gesture got him two somewhat painful elbows in the ribs from Artemis and Harry.

Artemis responded to the introduction with "I'm Artemis, miss manners here is Wally, and that one there is..."

Artemis didn't get to finish the statement as Nelson said "oh I know who he is, that is Harry Potter, one of the few who has survived getting hit with a killing curse, you're known by most in the supernatural community."

Harry looked a little surprised, which showed in his tone of voice as he said "wait others have survived being hit by that curse?"

Nelson responded with "yes it just requires a larger amount of magic than even someone like that Voldy fellow could have provided."

"Anyways you three" Nelson continued, "we're up against an opponent with a tremendous mystic power."

Wally interceded at this point and scoffed after he said "Abra Kadabra, Flash proved he uses futuristic technology to simulate magic he's all show and no bis."

Harry said "It's true, the guy has absolutely no magic in him what so ever," and Nelson nodded in agreement to that statement much to Artemis' surprise.

Then Nelson added "But I was talking about Klarion the witch boy, the kid with the cat, he's an actual lord of chaos, the ultimate enemy of a lord of order like Dr. Fate."

With clear disbelief Wally said "righhht you're a lord of order."

Harry at this corrected Wally when he said that the helmet was used to channel the power of Dr. Fate.

After that Nelson said "anyhow Klarion's after the helmet of Fate, if he gets his sticky little mitts on it he'll turn the whole planet into his own playground, it'll be pandemonium."

Harry grimaced at this as if the accounts they had heard from Giovanni were anything to go by this was serious (shut up Sirius!). After Nelson said this, there was a ding sound and after he finished the doors of the elevator opened to reveal a set of stairs that led to a huge bell. The group of four exited the elevator while following Nelson, who had just reached the bell when the other half of the team came through a door that appeared. Artemis ran towards the group to see if Aqualad, Superboy, and Hannah were alright as they had taken a hard hit when the direction sideways was in suddenly became down. She knew Hermione, Neville and Megan were fine as they hadn't fallen down hard like the others due to their flying ability.

Nelson said in a questioning but joyful tone "friends of yours?"

Suddenly a white electrical beam came at Wally and Nelson, who would have been hit if they hadn't ducked in time. Wally in response asked the question about the two villains that were now attacking the group. At the same time the teens dodged or (in Neville's and Hermione's case) blocked the attacks Abra Kadabra was sending since they did not feel like finding out what getting hit would do to them. Nelson then used his staff to ring the huge bell, which then responded by glowing yellow and taking Harry, Wally and Nelson to another place. Klarion managed to follow the group of three before the portal closed to where they were going.


Wally, Harry and Nelson appeared on what looked like the roof of the Tower of Fate and saw the Helmet of Fate hovering before them waiting for it to be used. Nelson reached forward as if to grab it and almost had it in his reach when a beam of pure chaos magic sent at him by Klarion hit him. Nelson was able with some words to put up a barrier that protected the three guys from the attacks coming from Klarion.

Klarion at seeing this cried nooooo like a little kid while Nelson collapsed into the arms of Wally as he showed he had been hit with a fatal magical attack. Harry meanwhile put his own magic into strengthening the force field so it would last longer.

Nelson then addressed Harry and Wally when he said "the bubble will give you two enough time to do what you need to do."

Wally in response said "I have no idea what I need to do." and to placate him Nelson said "have faith in what you can't explain, believe what you can no longer deny."

At this point Nelson expired from his magical injury and went limp in Wally's arms.

Just after that, Wally and Harry got a telepathic packet from Megan that said 'Wally, Harry we're in trouble, Hermione and Neville are barely holding back the attacks and Hannah was knocked unconscious by one of the attacks. We need Dr. Fate.'

Harry with obvious strain in his voice then said to Wally "if you're going to put the Helmet on I would do it now; I can't support the field protecting us much longer."

At that point Klarion chose to make the situation worse by using a rune sequence to power up and put even more pressure on the magical force field protecting them.

This seemed to settle it for Wally as he reached up and put on the helmet, and at the same time, the helmet settled on his head the force field was ripped to shreds. The magical backlash caused Harry to temporarily lose consciousness.


A/N: the scene that occurred inside the helmet happened like it did on the show so I'm going to skip the scene for convenience. The attack scene also plays out the same due to Harry being unconscious. The next scene starts as Dr. Fate gains the upper hand.


Harry woke up with a groan from the corner of the roof of the tower and saw that what looked like Dr. Fate was attacking Klarion's cat. He couldn't hear what the two enemies said to each other, but he trusted Dr. Fate and sent a high powered attack of heat vision enhanced by his magic that cut the cat into two pieces. With an overdone "nooooo!" both Klarion and his cat faded into their home dimension. At this time all of the weapons Abra Kadabra had disappeared and while the man stood there in surprise Superboy took the opportunity to knock the man out.

Harry was looking at Wally just as KF took of the Helmet of Fate, and when he saw this Harry asked, "What happened in there?" (Again, it happened as it did on the episode).

Wally said, "I'll explain later," and then took a moment to mourn the death of Kent Nelson.


MOUNT JUSTICE
AUGUST 03:48 EST

Hannah had been put in the medical room that the hideout had as she said after she came to that she felt rather funny. Wally in the meantime was in the room where he kept his souvenirs and put the helmet next to the others. Wally suddenly heard Artemis clear her throat as if she was trying to get his attention, and in response, KF turned to find her leaning against the doorway.

Artemis when she saw she had Wally's attention said "you never said what happened to you, when you put on the helmet."

Wally to answer her inquiry said "energy from the thing rewrote my brain's beta waves, I was bio scripted into becoming Dr. Fate for a few minutes, no big."

Artemis then said, "Wait, you're still claiming there's no such thing as magic. If that's how you feel, why keep it at all?"

Wally said as if it answered everything that it was a souvenir, which exasperated Artemis into walking away from him. Wally then remembered the advice Nelson had given him but then stopped his train of thought to go to try and flirt with Megan yet again.


A/N: So that's the end of the chapter. If you read any of the story please review, I would like to have more review then I have now.
