Authors Note
This is a Harry Potter / X-Men crossover fic ...... enjoy
This will serve as the disclaimer for the whole fic
I do not own Harry potter or the x-men. Harry Potter belongs to JK Rowling and the x-men belong to
Stan lee and Marvel Comics
Stuff in quotes with squiggles ("~stuff~") = thoughts
I will be messing around with the x-men timeline a little here as I need Jean to be at 'school' in the states whilst Lily is at Hogwarts so please excuse this.
The x-men roster will be a combination of the movie and the comics as I prefer the adult versions of some of the students and vice versa. 'Sides gotta have the Cajun in there (Gambit)
Enjoy

Chapter 2 – The Blackbird
As Scott Summers introduced himself Jean telepathically sent to Harry "~This is my husband Scott, your other uncle~" whilst Ron asked "how long will the flight be?", Tonks replied "Well standard muggle flights to the U.S. normally take about 10 – 12 hours, they also have a plane called Concorde that can make the journey in about a third of the time, but in this … well who knows?" she finished with a questioning expression , "Actually the Blackbird can make the journey in about an hour and a half" replied Scott. "That's why we're leaving now as this ought to get us to the institute whilst its still around midnight there so you should get the opportunity to get some sleep before the morning as it should be about midnight there. Hopefully you won't have to deal with jetlag because of this."
The flight passed quickly and before the two boys realized they were hovering over a large manor house and were descending over a basketball court in the back. As they watched the court slid away and the plane landed safely in an underground hanger. The group eventually got into the main part of the mansion through a set of stainless steel corridors that looked as if it could have come straight out of Star Trek. Jean showed the two boys to a room on the first floor explaining on the way that after tonight they would have to share with some of the other students here so as to keep the back story solid. As the two boys entered the room they saw their trunks and things were already there and that the beds were rather like the ones at Hogwarts in that they were exceedingly comfortable.
"Just like school, huh Harry?" said Ron.
"There are a couple of advantages over Hogwarts that this place has Ron." Replied Harry "Like electricity and central heating for a start." He continued
"What happened when you were picked up, I mean your aunt was looking at Logan and Professor Lupin a bit, well like McGonagall looks at Fred and George." Asked Ron
"Well as they came toward the house I heard Moony telling them to be quiet so as not to wake Uncle Vernon, I heard this and snorted so Lupin looked up, saw me and said they were looking for a way in." Harry explained.
"Well, how'd they get in then?" said Ron
"That Logan guy, well he stepped forward and told Lupin to move and he literally smashed his way in. He had three nine inch claws slide out of his fists and turned the door into firewood." Said Harry "I swear that man could definitely intimidate like Snape or worse. Anyway I was locked in and was waiting to be released and jean came up to get me and she literally ripped the door off the hinges, that's when I discovered she was telepathic because as she came into the room I was thinking 'up close she looks even more like my mum' and she answered that out loud."
"If she's telepathic, she could be worse than McGonagall." Groaned Ron
"After this she levitated my trunk down the stairs and there I saw the TV in much the same state as the Door and Uncle Vernon cowering in the corner. Best bit was Jean accused Logan but all he did was smash the TV, The rest was all down to Moony as the last Marauder." Smirked Harry
"Wish I could have seen that" said Ron "Actually my whole Family would pay to see that." He continued
"Who said you can't." said Harry "Moony put the memories into a Pensieve to show everyone." He paused "I get the feeling it's going to be birthday entertainment."
"Come on let's get some kip, I'm shattered and want to be awake tomorrow" said Ron
As soon as the pair clambered into the beds provided they dropped straight off to sleep.
The next day Harry and Ron were awakened by a mental call from Professor Xavier asking to meet with him before breakfast to discuss a few detail about training with Tonks and his new identity, so after a quick shower the two young wizards were making their way to Xavier's office guided mentally by Xavier himself.
As the pair entered already in the room were Jean, Scott, Tonks, Logan, and the Professor himself. "Ah Harry, Ron please take a seat." The two boys took a space on the huge sofa in the office.
"Right, we need to work out the details of your new identity Harry. Now for the next few weeks Miss Tonks will be training you to use the metamorphamagus talent so you can effectively disguise yourself. During this time she will pretend to be Jean and Scott's son, this will be achieved by a combination of her talents and a potion. Her appearance changing will be explained away as a mutant ability. When it's time for you to disappear you will take on that appearance and Logan will take your place in a battle with the aid of a polyjuice potion. Here Harry Potter will disappear and you will take over Miss Tonks role as James Summers. Only the X-Men, The Weasley's, Miss Granger and some of the Professors at Hogwarts will know." Explained Professor Xavier.
"Are you alright with me pretending to be your son and all this?" asked Harry "I mean there's no way this would put anyone in danger would it?" he continued shyly
"Harry when I first received the letter from Remus, I wanted to come and get you straight away because I had a feeling that you would be treated as you were. The reason I didn't come sooner is because I only heard about the attack on Godric's Hollow I thought you were all dead. I knew Petunia wouldn't tell me anything because, well she pretended that she had no other siblings so I assumed that you all had been killed. If I had known that you had survived earlier I would have come then." Said Jean
"Well I can understand that, but how come you were out here in America to start with?" asked Harry
"When I first found out I was a mutant, I was actually in my first year of college in England. My Parents were proud as I had a special talent like my sister but Petunia was bitter as she was the only one of us who was completely normal. Professor Xavier brought me out here so I could learn to control my abilities and so on. After our parents were killed in your mother's fifth year, Lily was the only one who kept in contact with me." Explained Jean
"We actually visited a couple of times and met your father and some of his friends; in fact your dad and Remus were the only two out of the Marauders who didn't make fun of these things" said Scott, pointing at his normal looking glasses apart from the fact that they had ruby red lenses "Remus was actually the one who found Jean and he actually told us a lot about you and your adventures. Even if you didn't need to go into hiding or anything we still would have come for you and would be proud to call you our son." He finished
"Harry, now we have the details of your new identity covered, its time for you both to meet the rest of the X-Men" Said Xavier. He paused for a second, put two fingers to his forehead and looked like he was concentrating. A minute later he stopped and looked up "The rest of the team should be along in a few minutes" Xavier told them. Sure enough five minutes later through the door trooped Storm, Logan, a tall man with shaggy brown hair, and a tallish woman with bushy hair that reminded Harry a lot of Hermione apart from the fact it had a huge white streak running through it.
"Harry, Ron this is Ororo Munro, Codenamed Storm for her ability to control the weather." Said Xavier, indicating a young African American woman with blond hair and blue eyes. "Its good to meet you properly, my young friends." She said
"This is Logan, codenamed Wolverine for various reasons. You have seen his gifts already Harry when you were rescued from Privet Drives." Continued the Professor, Logan gave the pair an almost imperceptible nod and a look that said 'Don't mess'
Indicating the young man with the shaggy brown hair that was not much unlike his own Xavier carried on "This is Remy le Beau, also known as Gambit. This is not because of his gift but rather one of his chosen weapons"
"And for now at least this is Rouge, our resident southern belle." Finished Xavier
"You're free to look round the estate but first it might be an idea to get you two into your rooms with the other student's" said Jean, heading towards the door. Harry and Ron followed her and as they made their way to the wing where the students' rooms were Jean explained that Tonks would be staying in the small suite of rooms that she and Scott shared until Harry was ready to take on the role of James Summers.
The trio reached their destination and knocked on the door. After a second a shout of "Just a minute" came from within and then the door was answered by two other boy's, both about their age. One had brown hair and eyes and the other was covered in an indigo blue fur and had intense blue eyes. "Guys these are your new Roomies Harry and Ron, You two this is Bobby Drake" said Jean indicating the brown haired boy "and this is Kurt Wagner" she finished indicating the other boy.
The two young wizard entered the room to find their belongings already at the foot of two of the beds and perches for the owls belonging to the pair. Both had one thing on their minds; This was going to be one interesting summer to say the least.
