I do not own. Oh, and I think I made a few mistakes on the explanation about Gohan and Trunk's past. Correct me, and I'll correct them. - Thanks!

During lunch, Gohan and Trunks had sat beside Harry, Hermione and Ron. They had looked up at them confusedly, because they usually sit alone at the end of the table. Nonetheless, they exchanged friendly greetings.

"So…" Ron attempted to start up a conversation.

"Do you know anyplace that's secretive?" Gohan cut Ron off. "A place where nobody goes?"

Harry looked at them suspiciously. Seamus had told them about his and Dean's suspicion. "Why?"

"We have something important to tell you," Trunks said. "Something important, that's only supposed to be told to Harry. But since Ron and Hermione are good friends of yours, we suppose it wouldn't hurt to tell them, as long as they keep it a secret."

"Tell us now then," Ron said, mad that he was cut off.

"No," Gohan said. "It shouldn't be said here, too many people."

Hermione glared at them. "Is it anything that would hurt Harry?"

"No," Gohan answered. "It's the opposite."

"Fine," Hermione said. "After dinner, at the Gryffindor common room."

"It needs to be secretive," Trunks said.

Gohan shrugged. "That's fine. We'll be able to detect if anybody's coming or something. Just make sure nobodies in the common room after dinner. But…" he frowned and turned to Trunks. "If they want proof, we'll need to power up… we can't do that inside after dinner… we'll attract unwanted attention, and might blow up some stuff by accident."

Trunks nodded in apprehension. "We'll go outside. After dinner, the place under the Gryffindor tower."

"Alright," Harry said uncertainly. "We'll be there."

Gohan nodded, and the two friends moved towards their usual spot and began eating. Dean and Seamus joined them a minute later.

(After dinner, below Gryffindor tower)

Harry, Ron and Hermione stood shivering. "Where are those two suspicious Japanese kids?" Ron muttered. "If they don't come soon, we'll freeze out here waiting!"

"Relax, Ron," Hermione rolled her eyes. "I see them coming."

Sure enough, Gohan and Trunks appeared before them a few seconds later. Trunks smiled apologetically. Gohan just stared at them coldly.

"Sorry if we made you wait, dinner tonight was too good, so we got in some extra helpings," Trunks said. Hermione giggled.

"That's okay," she said. "So, right to the point now. Or else Ron here will die of hyperthermia."

"Hey!" Ron protested. "It really is cold!" Harry grinned at his friend's protest.

Trunks and Gohan suddenly went all serious. "We don't have much time to tell you," Gohan started. "We need to finish our homework."

"Right." The five of them sat down on the grass.

"Gohan and I," Trunks began. He sucked in a large breath, "we aren't exactly human."

"What!" Harry blurted. "Not human? You look normal to me."

"We aren't," Gohan said. "We are half human."

"Half!" Hermione got out of her shock. "Okay, now I knew you guys were weird, but I didn't think you guys were loony! Especially since Trunks is the son of a famous woman!"

"We're not loony," Trunks said. "I'm being serious here." Ron was still looking at him with a wide mouth.

"Not possible," he blabbed. "There aren't any aliens, or else we would've heard about it."

"Don't tell me you haven't heard about Cell," Gohan said, his voice dropping into iciness.

Hermione and Harry both nodded. "We know about Cell. He was all over the news…"

"Wait!" Hermione exclaimed. "He attacked Japan didn't he? You guys lived in Japan didn't you? Did he attack you?"

"Yes."

"Then how come you're still alive?" Harry caught on. "He was really powerful. It was a good thing Hercules was there to save the day eh?"

Gohan's eyebrow ticked. He was annoyed… very annoyed about that crazy idiotic afro man. "Because he couldn't kill us."

"Why not?" Ron asked. "Come to think of it, I heard about this Cell guy over the summer. My dad said if Cell wasn't dealt with, even the magic community might have a big problem with him. If he's that powerful, then how can a Muggle defeat him?"

"That big, fat, ugly afro head didn't beat Cell," Gohan said dangerously. The others started to back away from him. "I did."

The trio broke into laughter. Trunks stared at him. "I don't see what's so funny. He's saying the truth." The others stopped laughing.

"That's even more impossible than Hercules beating Cell," Ron muttered. "You guys must've hit your head or something."

"I'm serious," Gohan said. "You said you saw Cell over the television? How about the little tournament?"

"Yes, I saw that," Harry said. "Uncle Vernon and Dudley were attached to seeing the delivery boy and Cell fight."

"I saw that too," Hermione said. "It was really intense and everything. But everything got blurred by the smoke and the television guy fainted or something."

"I watched a bit of it on a Muggle television," Ron said. "When mom and I went shopping because Dad wanted to experience Muggle shopping."

"I'm the delivery boy," Gohan said.

Trunks sweatdropped. He's really straightforward.

"I don't believe you," Hermione said immediately. "I mean, he has blonde hair and-"

She was cut off when Gohan took off in the sky and powered up to Super Saiyan. He landed back on the ground and sat down again. "Enough proof?"

Harry gulped. "H-how…?"

"We told you, we aren't completely humans. We're half humans, the other half is what we call Saiyan. Our dads were Saiyans," Trunks explained.

"So…" Ron looked nervously at Trunks. "Can you do that too then?"

"Here, we'll show you something that will prove to you that I defeated Cell," Gohan said. "We'll fly them to our training place."

"Are you sure?" Trunks asked. Gohan nodded.

"Wait just a minute," Hermione said. "What do you mean fly?"

"We'll hold you by your hands and fly," Gohan said.

"No way," Harry said. "I'm not so sure I want to experience-" He was cut off when Trunks quickly picked him and Hermione up while Gohan picked up Ron. "Hey!"

Hermione screamed as Trunks took off at high speed. Ron was too shocked to say anything. Harry screamed too.

"Put me down!" He bellowed.

"Shut up!" Trunks hissed. "I'm not going to drop you! If you keep on screaming, you two, we'll be caught!"

Hermione quieted down, but she shut her eyes tight in fear. Harry did as well, frightened. They felt Trunks plunging downwards then land softly onto the ground. Then they opened their eyes slowly.

Ron was frozen in shock. He was just staring straight ahead of him with his mouth open. Gohan rolled his eyes and shook Ron out of his funk.

"I-i-impossible," Ron stuttered. "This is all a bad dream, and when I wake up, you two will be normal and sane people. Normal human beings, not aliens with spiky hair, nope no spiky hair at all."

"I think we need a full explanation," Hermione said quietly and nervously.

"We will give one to you," Trunks said. He powered down and sat down on the grass. Gohan did as well, and the other three sat down.

Gohan started. "More than 20 years ago, my father landed on Earth…"

And so, began the long explanation. The three second years listened intently and gravely. When he had finished, they all had grave and grim looks on their faces. Hermione sported a pity look as well.

"Gohan…" Hermione muttered. "I-I…"

Gohan looked away, not wanting to see her pity. "What? You want to say sorry?"

"Yes…"

"For what?" he looked at her questionably. "You did absolutely nothing wrong. You weren't the one who created Cell; you weren't the one who killed them."

"Still," Hermione insisted. "I'm sorry for your loss."

"Whatever."

Trunks sighed. "I am not from this time."

"Okay, this gets weirder and weirder," Harry said. "What do you mean!"

"Through the technology of the future, I was able to use a time machine and go into this time," Trunks explained. "My mother had died in my timeline, and my father had too, a long time ago. The androids had killed nearly everybody in my time; I was one of the only survivors. I decided to come here. When I did, that was when Dumbledore found us, and told us we were wizards."

The group was silent. Harry spoke up. "Why did you decide to tell us this? How do we know if you guys really aren't working for Voldemort or something?" Hermione and Ron flinched at the name.

"Why would we?" Gohan asked. "If we did, wouldn't we have captured you already and handed you guys over to Voldemort?"

"Stop it with the name!" Ron grimaced.

Harry ignored him. "I guess… but still, what is your motive of this?"

"We are to protect you," Gohan said directly. "Until your fight with Voldemort."

"Protect him?" Hermione echoed. "You think Hogwarts isn't enough protection? You think that Professor Dumbledore doesn't have the power to protect him?"

"I don't need protection from two 11-year olds!" Harry roared indignantly.

Gohan glared. "Don't forget that we are Saiyans. We are much more powerful than your average eleven year old. Forget your pride for a moment."

Ron frowned. "So, are you two supposed to follow us around like bodyguards or something?"

"No," Trunks shook his head. "I think it's better if we keep up being students at Hogwarts. You guys are not allowed to tell anyone about this okay?"

They all nodded their heads. Harry was still steaming. "I don't need protection! I can protect myself!"

"According to the students here, Voldemort is a very powerful wizard. You are just a twelve year old boy. Really, do you think you can protect yourself?" Trunks asked.

Harry nodded, defeated. "Alright. But please, don't follow us around like bodyguards."

"We won't. We will be normal students at Hogwarts, but when you are attacked, we will protect you. I hope we won't blow our cover," Trunks said.

Gohan sighed. "That will be a problem. We can't show our super strength, nor can we use ki blasts. So, that means we have to be slow and weak."

Ron frowned. "Why can't you just tell Professor Dumbledore about this?"

Trunks shook his head. "Because we were given the order to just tell you guys, and nobody else. Not even Professor Dumbledore."

"Why?" Hermione asked.

"You reacted weirdly when we told you we were aliens," Gohan muttered. "What makes you think others won't?"

"Alright," Harry nodded. "Can't you guys teach us how to fight and defend ourselves?"

"We can teach you," Trunks nodded. "But you won't be strong enough. We are stronger because of our Saiyan blood. Your ki level is too low to use ki blast or fly."

"Ki?" Hermione looked confused. "I heard you use it a number of times tonight. What is it?"

"It is your life force," Gohan slowly explained. "Kind of, anyways. We can use our ki to fly and to use them like this." He turned his palm up and a ki ball appeared. He threw it at Trunks who instinctively put up his shield. The ki exploded.

Harry, Hermione, and Ron looked on, wide-eyed. "Bloody hell!" Ron looked flabbergasted.

"The blue shield thing you just saw around me is also made of ki," Trunks added.

"So, we can't do that because or ki level is too low?" Hermione asked, disappointed.

"Yes," Gohan said. "Some humans have high ki level, but they are really rare. We know most of them. All Saiyans are born with high ki level."

"I see…" Harry gulped. "Well, I think we should go back to the castle."

"Yeah," Ron muttered.

Gohan and Trunks nodded and took them back. Ron and Hermione walked ahead towards the Gryffindor room, with Harry trailing them. Gohan and Trunks were going to the library. Harry turned towards the demi-saiyans before walking up the stairs.

"You two didn't petrify Ms. Norris, did you?"

"No," Trunks shook his head. "We saw her like that. We felt something wrong about it though. We know something wrong is happening in this school. It has something to do with the Chamber of Secrets, I'm sure."

Harry nodded doubtfully and ran after his friends.
