Disclaimer: Anything from Xenogears or Harry Potter or anything else is not
mine. This storyline is mine though, but anything used isn't. This is an AU
Crossover story. You don't have to have played Xenogears or read Harry
Potter (not much for this in any case, but some of book 4) to understand
anything. If this offends anyone, sorry and e-mail me with either

In a clouded place...
Harry Potter awakes to the sound of metal clashing against metal. He stands up to find that his eyes have been wrapped with a piece of cloth. He takes it off and finds his vision distorted. He starts searching for his glasses. "The glasses are to your right kid", said a hoarse voice to his right. "Who are you?", asked Harry, while fumbling for his glasses. "When you find your glasses, then I'll start with the introductions", retorted the mysterious person. "Ok, I have my glasses on now who are---WHAT ARE YOU!?!", Harry asks the entity before him. "I am not a 'what' kind sir, but an unfortunate man, forever trapped for crossing my god. (btw, if you have ever played Xenogears, you will know how important 'god' is to the storyline and this too soon enough, but if you didn't then it will be explained later) I have been trapped down here for the past years...what is the year today good sir?", croaks the entity. "It is the year 2002 A.D. You still did not answer my question, who are you?", asked Harry. "Ah, many years have passed since I have seen the light, millenniums since I have been imprisoned. My names are many, but my most famous one is Balthazar.", said Balthazar. "Balthazar, how did I get here and how do I get out?", asked Harry. "I am afraid that you will not be allowed out until you have understood what is happening young one.", said Balthazar. Harry said bitterly, "I do know what has happened, Voldemort has risen and I am to blame for it." "Fool!", scolded Balthazar. Harry jumped at the power in his voice. "Are you so self-centered that you only think that your country and yourself are the only things changing in the world?", scolded Balthazar. "What are you talking about? Of course the other countries are changing, I just know that the main danger is Voldemort and he's in bloody Britain!", retorted an indignant Harry. "You are a fool, but you are still young, so I will excuse this impudence for now, but I will tell you this: The world is threatened, that much of what you say is true, but not only by Voldemort. A greater evil is rising and it has already consumed several people; Voldemort is merely a sample of what it has consumed over the few years.", said Balthazar. "What is this evil that you speak of?", asked Harry. "This evil has no suitable description, I can only hope that you understand through the training you receive here and the tomes that I will show you. Come this way. Oh and do not be afraid, the real path will be shown in your heart. Trust it.", said Balthazar as he glided up the clouds. "Trust in my heart? What the bloody hell could he mean?", muttered Harry as he ran to catch up with him by following his trail. As Harry runs, he falls through the clouds... "AHHHH!!! Somone help me!", cries Harry.
In a cavern not far away...
Hermione is awoken by a light that appears in a part of the cave. "Ugghh, where am I? How did I get here?", asks Hermione. "A better question is why are you here my apprentice.", said a figure from the darkness. "Who are you? Where are you? What do you mean 'apprentice'?", asks Hermione. "A name is not important apprentice, a person's true essence is, but you may call me 'Merlin' and I am calling you apprentice because I have chosen you to inherit my power. ", said Merlin as he appears out of the darkness.. "What!?! There is only one Merlin and he is dead, how can you be Merlin!?!", Hermione demands. "I have never died apprentice, I have merely been hiding all these years, for a person cursed with the power of the gods may not die. I have wondered what it would be like, but alas, I cannot go past life and into death. ", said Merlin with regret. "Why are you so eager to die? What do you mean by 'power of the gods'?", inquired Hermione. "I am eager to die because death is merely the next great adventure. The 'power of the gods' is the power that exceeds normal humans exponentially. Not many are worthy enough to inherit it, I myself had to practice and study for almost half my life.", said Merlin. "I see. Well I guess this is where you say I have the gift and you start teaching me new and exciting techniques huh?", Hermione said sarcastically.
"Actually yes, why don't we go there now hmm?" Merlin says as space around the two phases in and out. "Wait! You can't be serious! STOP!", shouts Hermione, but it was too late, for they both disappeared. Back to the clouds...
Balthazar catches him with an unseen force and guides him back to the solid path. "I told you to trust your heart young one, not your eyes. Use your heart to "feel" the solid path; this will be your first lesson. Don't worry, time will be slowed outside this place while you and the others train", said Balthazar gently. "Ok, I can do this. C'mon Harry you can do this.", muttered Harry as he closes his eyes.
A winding path appears in his mind as he searches for solid ground. Harry walks through the path, while Balthazar leads him. Soon they are off the path and into a marble room. A meter from where they meet, space phases in and out. Merlin and Hermione appear in the space.
"Greetings Balthazar, how are you?", asks Merlin extending his hand. "I am fine as can be in this state of imprisonment", Balthazar replies. "Ever the callous aren't you?", Merlin says as he eyes Harry's disrupted appearance. "Well it wasn't my fault that this person couldn't navigate the cloud path", Balthazar grinned. "Well that answers my question then. Let's get on with the introductions then shall we? I am Merlin and I have been hiding here ever since my 'death' in the public.", said Merlin. "I am Balthazar, the third of the wise men, and we know your names, Hermione Granger and Harry Potter, for we were the people who brought you here, so that you two may inherit our powers and we may pass into death.", Balthazar said. "I see. What are your powers?", Harry inquired. "We have the power to be immortal, but that is the only ability that all the gifted ones share with each other besides being able to pilot. The other abilities are person-specific, so no person knows the full abilities of every gifted person. What we pilot will be explained later. For now, simply follow us and extend your senses.", Balthazar said.
The group enters a dark cavern and the entrance seemingly closes with doors coming from nowhere. The group keeps on walking until they reach the end of the path and lights are turned on in the ceiling. The lights reveal a door that is encased in gold, silver and ivory. "Welcome to Heaven's Gate.", said Merlin.
Merlin and Balthazar walk up to the door and stand on the globe on the bottom of the door. The outline of the globe starts glowing gold, then silver, then white, and then holographic circles rise out of the outline to encircle Merlin and Balthazar. Runes circle the two and suddenly, a beep is heard and the door opens to reveal its contents to the group. "What the bloody hell is THAT!?!", Harry shouted in surprise.
