Chapter 14: Harry meets the soldiers.
Tsume looked at the five new comers. He then focused on the braided one.
"You are like Ed-kun."
"Honto?"
"Aa. I'll show you to the headmaster's office before joining to-kun and Snuffles. Follow me blessed one."
"Duo."
"Sorry?"
"My name is Duo. I don't like being called blessed one or that. Just Duo."
"Okay, Duo-kun. Shall we go?"
They followed him up to the head masters office and he knocked. The door opened and they walked in.
"Head master, these gentle men just arrived."
"How?"
"Fell from the sky… according to Ed-kun."
"Why don't you go back to hunting? I'll introduce them to the dorm… where is Ed?"
"Detention with the one that set Toboe's tail on fire."
"Oh that's right. Please have a seat."
Tsume nodded to Duo before leaving the room.
"So what can I do for you?"
"We need a way to get home."
"How did you arrive?"
"This idiot read something out loud and we ended up here… where is here exactly?"
"North Scotland… how did you meet Ed?"
"We kind of squashed him when we landed on him." The blonde haired man said.
"What are your names?"
"Heero Yuy, leader of the Night squad." The brown haired man said.
"Wulfei Chang, second in command." The black haired Chinese looking one said.
"Quatre Winner." The blonde said "This is Trowa Barton. He doesn't speak much."
"I'm Duo Elric."
"Oh? Are you a relation of Ed's?"
"Don't know sir. We come from a different time… I think… what year is it?"
"2007."
"Yeah… we are fifteen years in the past."
"I'll see what I can do. I'll try and find a way to send you home, until such time why don't you stay here you can stay here."
"Well Heero?" Duo asked.
"Hn." Heero said nodding.
"Yay. Thank you Heero." Duo said hugging the other man. The other man didn't push him away.
"I don't know how you can stand him." Wufei said watching them both.
Trowa looked at them then at Quatre.
"You're right Trowa."
"Hmm?"
"I can read peoples thoughts and feelings. I've always been able to do it. I can read Duo's to a certain degree… but his seem to be more emotions than most."
"I can't help it." Duo whined and pouted.
Quatre giggled. "I know you can't but you know how I get."
"I know." duo said looking at his feet. Heero placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Duo-kun, what's wrong?"
"… I'm sorry I got us into this mess."
"It's alright, Duo. I know you didn't mean it. We all make mistakes." Heero said placing his arm round his shoulder.
"…What happened between you two?" Wufei asked
"It's a secret. I've been forbidden to say." Heero said.
"By who?"
"Our boss."
"The King?"
"Yes."
"What's with the questions?" Quatre asked. "You haven't been so interested in someone else's life before."
"It's just strange…"
"Where will we be staying for the duration of our stay?" Heero asked.
"Oh? I think that it would be best that you stay with Ed he seems to be very down right now. I believe that young Mr Maxwell will be able to cheer him up slightly."
"I don't mind. Ed-san seems like a really nice guy."
"He is… he's just missing the other professor that is teaching the same subject as him."
"Why?"
"They come from the same city. They also work together in the same building."
"They have two jobs?"
"Yes… I can't remember what it is you'd have to ask Ed about that."
"Okay."
"There are students and professors living in the same dorm as you. You met two of the wolves. There are four more wolves and one of the students god father living in the same dorm."
"Hmm? Why's that?"
"He is in danger. His god father warned him and hasn't left his side since."
"We could help." Quatre said.
"That will be very helpful."
"Could you direct us to the room?" Heero asked as he stood up.
"Of course." Dumbledore said standing up. "Oh, my name's Albus Dumbledore by the way. You can come to me any time even if you just have something to ask."
They walked to the dorm. Duo was watching the pictures as they went.
"Duo, don't get lost." He heard Heero say but he was so fascinated by the fact that everything was like home, in his house some of the pictures moved. He lived with his mum and dad in a two bed roomed house in the country side. He was too busy to notice he had bumped into something.
"Duo!"
Duo fell backwards only to be caught by Heero.
"Duo? Are you okay?"
"Hai… daijobu. Arigatou Heero-san."
Heero placed duo's feet on the ground and grabbed his hand. He pulled him behind him and held his hand till they got to the room.
"Lang, these are going to be new occupants of your dorm. Will you inform Ed when he returns tonight?"
"Of course head master." Lang said before opening. Dumbledore walked into the room and found Harry sitting reading a book.
"Harry?"
"Head master? Is there something I can do for you?"
"I just wanted to introduce you to the new arrivals in the dorm. This is Heero, Duo, Wufei, Quatre and Trowa. They will be staying here till they can get home."
"Please to meet you. Hermione and Ron are asleep just now. Sirius is out at the moment we have four wolves sleeping just now as well. Professor Elric is…" Harry started to say before a dog jumped in front of him. Duo cocked his head to the side and walked up to the dog. He crouched in front of him and looked the dog in the eyes.
"Duo! Don't get too close!" Heero said.
"It's okay Heero-san. This isn't a dog." Duo said as he stretched his hand out and stroked the dog's fur. The dog leaned into it. "You can show your true form. We won't harm you."
Harry looked curiously at them before asking "Can you hold out your arms for him. Shoe that you don't have any markings on your arms."
Duo rolled his sleeves up and showed both sides of his arms. The rest followed his example. The dog transformed into a human and he stood. Duo also stood and held his hand out to the man.
"Nice to meet you. I can see you are very protective of your god son."
"Nice to meet you as well. And yes I am. He is the only one that I have to remind me of James and Lilly."
"I'm guessing they would be Harry's parents."
"Yes… they are. You are very smart."
"Thank you."
"He's our specialist in observations. He's also the youngest in our team." Heero said.
"Sirius can you get them settled? I have some work to do."
"Of course head master." Sirius said smiling. Duo looked round the room and became very curious.
"Duo, don't get interested. We aren't here for long."
"Heero-san! It's just like home. Uncle sends me all sorts of pictures like these from his work."
"Your uncle?" Harry asked.
"Mmm, he's very busy so I hardly see him."
"What does he do?"
"He's a teacher and he's also a brigadier general."
"Sounds like Ed." Sirius said snickering. He showed them to the available bed rooms.
"Wufei, considering you hate sharing. Why don't you take the one that had the one bed room? Quatre and Trowa can share and I'll share with Duo." Heero suggested.
"That's fine." Wufei said.
Duo sat on one of the beds and sighed.
"Duo? What's wrong?"
"I can't hide the truth can i? not for long."
"Duo, you can tell them when you are ready. I know you are only fifteen and that you are very talented but other than that they don't need to know why you are part of the team." Heero said pulling the bag off of his back. He pulled out his lap top and set it on the table. Duo went into the common room leaving Heero to set up. He watched the pictures till he heard footsteps enter the room.
A/N: this chapter is longer than the last but not that much. I'll type up the next chapter soon Mika-chan. xxx
