Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of the Soul Calibur II names. Ll I own is a personality that no one can describe or compare with.. And that's NOT a good thing. So if you sue someone, do it to any other person who owns buku bucks, like bill gates, not me.
Pairings: RonXHermione a cute couple that can't be left out of any story. KilikXTalim, the must pairing for this whole fic. There's going to be two deaths, Lucius Malfoy, and Voldemorte, the two most evil people on the planet.. And they deserve to die... because I said so...

OPENING CEREMONIES
Kilik slowly woke up the next morning, having sat up all night and talked with Talim, who was currently curled into his side. He smiled and moved her away, getting up to get dressed. He pulled his regular outfit on and walked out of their tent. He looked around at the many camps , all quiet in the morning air. He knew for a fact that the students in Hogwarts were already in their first class being that it was eight o clock, or at least they were eating. He looked up at the familiar crooning noise and saw Nightmare soaring down to him.
"Ohayo Gozaimasu Nightmare" he said as the bird landed on his shoulder and nuzzled him.
"Where are you going Kilik-ai" asked a voice from the opening of the tent. He turned to see Talim rubbing sleep from her eyes.
"Up to the castle, I need to speak with the headmaster. You want to come with?" he asked as she nodded and followed him up the dew covered stairs. They walked and talked for a while until they reached the school. Kilik pushed on the doors and walked in, Talim by his side the whole time.
" It's birei na she said as he smiled
" It always has been, and if I'm not correct, Dumbledore-sama should be in breakfast" he said as they walked down the hall to the great hall. Kilik pushed open the doors and met the looks of many Hogwarts faces. Many of the girls began to swoon over him and the guys became jealous. He just ignored them and walked over towards the staff table.
"Good morning Kilik, Talim, what can I do for you?"Dumbledore asked pleasantly as Kilik raised an eyebrow.
"WE discuss this" he said lifting his bangs only slightly.
"Ahh, yes, the topic from yesterday. If you will just stand over by that wall I will be happy to talk to you once my breakfast is finished." he said as the boy bowed
"Arigatou Dumbledore-sama he said walking to the wall.
"What was that all about?"McGonagall asked watching the youth talk to the girl in fluent Japanese
" Just a small discussion with the warrior, nothing of that great importance" Dumbledore said watching as Kilik looked around the great hall.
His eyes landed first on Ron and Hermione. Hermione was staring down at the dragon figurine in her hands, while Ron, amazingly, was studying. Then his eyes wandered around the many familiar and new faces, then to Draco Malfoy who was glaring at him. He just glared back, and Malfoy looked like he was about ready to spring out at him.
"Kilik?" Talim asked as he looked down at her.
"It's nothing" he said smiling at her.
"Ah yes, now what was it that you wanted?"Dumbledore asked walking over to him, leading the two of them out of the great hall.
" The fact that Voldemorte is on Hogwarts grounds that's why" Kilik growled as the old man's eyes twinkled.
" He's here to compete for the Soul Calibur" he said as Kilik hit a wall causing rock to fall away.
" And let him kill off the contestants?" he yelled as Dumbledore shook his head.
"Of course not, there's been a protective spell put on the grounds. Nobody can be killed whilst in them. That is why this tournament is so safe, the contestants will only be knocked unconscious" eh said as kilik's eyes widened and he smiled.
" So I was worried over nothing, I see... well then you don't have to worry, I will defeat him, and I will save us all" he aid bowing away from the headmaster. Dumbledore saw him turn to the girl and begin talking in Japanese again.
" If only you were the same Harry as before... I wouldn't be so worried about you" he said walking away.
As kilik and Talim walked down the hall way, kilik stopped at seeing Malfoy Bullying Hermione. Ron was on the floor sporting a bloody lip, backing away because of Crabbe and Goyle.
"Please Malfoy give it back!" Hermione pleaded reaching for a little figurine. Malfoy just held it out of her reach higher.
"What is it? A token of love from weasel?" he snickered as tears filled her eyes.
"No! It was Harry's" she said as Malfoy's grin spread wider.
" Well then, since he's dead, you've no reason to hold it for him" he said . Kilik turned to Nightmare.
"Get it" he snapped as the bird took off and soared past Malfoy's head, snatching the tiny dragon from him.
"What the?" he looked around as Kilik and Talim stepped around the pillar. Kilik held open his hand as Nightmare dropped the figurine into his hands.
" I do not think this is yours, so therefore you've no reason to destroy it. Besides, if it's precious to her, why take it" he said helping Hermione up. She blinked and looked up at him and gasped. Upon his forehead was a lightning bolt scar.
" You've no right to talk to me. I am superior to you"Malfoy snapped as Kilik laughed.
" You never have and never will be Malfoy, so unless you'd like your face beat in by myself or Talim, I suggest you run along" Kilik snapped as Malfoy glared at him.
"Why you little Mudblood!" he growled and swung a punch.
He gasped when Kilik moved his head an inch and the punch missed.
"I told you" he said grabbing his wrist and flipping him to the floor. "Save it for the arena" he said walking back over to Hermione who was in tears.
" I believe this belongs o a friend of yours?" he said opening her hand and setting the small object in it. He bent down at her ear.
" If you want to talk to me, Hermione, come see me after the ceremonies, I promise you'll understand." he said giving her a quick friendly, I'm sorry, kiss on the cheek and standing up. He looked back to Talim.
"Ikimasho ka?" he asked as she nodded and followed him out of the school.
"Hermione, are you okay? Why are you crying.?" Ron asked as she wiped her eyes.
" It's.. It's nothing" she said getting up and helping him to the hospital wing.
Sirius watched as the Hisuicamp watched their two warriors practice. He was intrigued by this boy, kilik. He looked so familiar, yet so strange.
"What's wrong Padfoot" Remus asked coming to stand next to his friend.
"Kilik.. He reminds me of Harry.. Just his swift movements and things.. He even sort of looks like him, minus the glasses... you know Moony, I'm beginning to think that I'm never going to see my godson again, that he's been murdered" Sirius said smiling a bit when he saw Kilik's pole hit head first with Talim's.
"Don't think that way Sirius.. Harry will come back, Dumbledore even said he was already on the grounds" Remus said in a comforting tone.
" I hope he's right, I can't help blame myself for his disappearance" he said smiling a bit as he stood up.
"Come, let's go watch the opening ceremonies..."
Kilik stood next to Talim as they walked toward the arena for the opening ceremonies. Nightmare rested on his shoulder with a small jade necklace on. Hooked to Kilik's back was the black and yellow, ancient Mina family Kali-Yuga pole, Heishiro had given it to him for good luck.
"Ama kuminuto kenasudaiyo?"Talim asked him as they stood on the side of the ring. He nodded and smiled.
" I have to... for you, the village, and the world alike" he said as she smiled back
"Ladies and gentlemen, beasts and beastettes "dumbledore rang loudly looking around the many different faces of the crowd. "Welcome to the Soul Calibur tournament! Many of you have traveled far and wide for this prize, and most of you will fail to achieve it, but rest assured, no one is intended to be killed here, we've taken all security measures" he said
"And now, the opening ceremonies. I will begin with two of the youngest contestants in this tournament...who have traveled from the other side of the continent, just to compete for this once in a lifetime prize...Talim, Kilik, would you please step forward?"Dumbledore asked as the competitors parted, some smiling and giving congrats, others sneering and shooting glares. Ron looked at him and gave him a thumbs up, making him feel as if it were just another quidditch match.. With more at stake than house points. They looked at each other and walked forward, nightmare blinking around.
Soon they were standing in front of the Hogwarts headmaster. Out of the corner of his eye, Kilik could see Hermione standing there with the other Gryffindors, a look of happiness and confusion on her face. Dumbledore bent down for the podium.
"Would you like to open this up, I've seen some of your moves, why not give them a taste of what the real Harry Potter is all about?" he said as Kilik nodded and smirked
"It would be my honor, Dumbledore-sama' he said as Talim and him walked out onto the middle of the arena.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the opening ceremony!" Dumbledore yelled to cheers as Kilik flipped out the pole, Nightmare deciding to fly over onto Hermione's shoulder for comfort. Talim did the same.
"Kakudo aika" he said, his voice ringing out through the crowd. Talim flipped her hair back and twirled the pole
"Te kusoduto itai nayou" she said back causing the Japanese portion of the crowd to whistle.
"Hiza" Kilik said closing his eyes and getting into a defensive pose. The night sky seemed to churn as he gathered the magical energy from around him. The wind began to blow around him and he opened his eyes, they were now a brighter green.
Suddenly he bolted for her and the poles clashed. Talim jumped up and kicked at him but he ducked and swing the pole just as she was landing. This action caused her to fall, but she pushed back up only in time to see Kilik rushing at her again.
"Kurai!!" he yelled grabbing the pole and lifting both of his feet. They were level with her face and he twisted them making a scythe movement. She retorted and spun a kick around the pole knocking him in the middle, causing him to skid the very edge where Hermione and the other Gryffindors were standing. He lodged his pole in the stone and swung back around running after Talim. Hermione couldn't believe it, this, warrior, was her best friend Harry Potter, all along...
Kilik yelled as he swung the pole in his Yin and Yang attack, Talim doing the almost same. As their rods lit on fire and clashed with each other, the flames swirled around the two of them and shot into the sky, creating a lightning bolt shaped figure. The crowds wailed and cheered at the spectacular show or swordsmanship. Talim and Kilik looking around at the loud cheering, only to find Talim's younger siblings running up to them
"Kilik-sama kuru!"
"Talim too!" they giggled as Kilik picked both of them up and sat them on his shoulders. Sirius looked at the boy who was holding the kids.. His smiled made his sad insides turn, that smile, so much like his godson it was scarey. And yet he felt like he knew the boy that was holding onto those children, even though they'd only come in physical contact once.
" He's quite the remarkable young man isn't he?" Sirius turned to see Dumbledore standing there next to him.
" He reminds me of harry, and it hurts" he said as the old man's eyes twinkled like they always do.
"Wait and see Sirius.. Things will unravel soon enough... much sooner than you think" he said and walked off toward the elfin camp to talk to a few friends.
Kilik walked off of the arena and headed back to the camp for a celebration. He turned around when he heard his old name called. Hermione stood there with Nightmare on her shoulder, tears in her eyes.
"Harry..." she said before wrapping her arms around his neck. He stood there frozen for a second until giving her a hug.
" Where have you been! I missed you so much, I was so worried" she cried as the boy smiled and placed a hand on top of her head. She looked up into his eyes.
" Hermione, a lot has happened that I can't explain to you yet, but it will all make sense soon, ok? For now let me give it to you in little bits.. I was kidnapped by a death eater party, and tortured by Voldemorte.. I was then saved by Nigthmare... the Hisui village took me in and taught me everything I know now.." he said as Talim stood back and watched. Kilik could feel her eyes on him and he brought Hermione into the celebration.
"Hermione–chan o goshokai shimasu. Koko ni iru nowa,watakushi no yujin desu" he said to Talim as she looked at Hermione smiling.
"Hi! My name's Talim" she said as the two girls shook on it.
"Nice to meet you Talim, I am Harry.. I mean Kilik's friend from Hogwarts" she said as Talim smiled
"We'll get along fine then" she said giving Kilik a naughty look. He shook his head
"Onnas" he said as they walked into the camp.
Ron looked around the camp grounds for Hermione until he found her dancing with kilik. She was laughing and he was trying to teach her how to do the steps. The girl, Talim was standing there clapping her hands with the rest of the villagers. He looked angrily at Kilik who was smiling like he had been her oldest friend in the world. Hermione looked up and beamed.
"Come and join us Ron!" she yelled as he shook his head
" I came looking for you.. Apparently you forgot about McGonagall's homework" he said as she blinked
"No, I did it during class" she sad dancing around with the twins. Kilik looked over to Ron, smiling at his best friend who gave him a glare before walking away. He had a feeling that Ron was very angry with him for some reason.. And the only way he'd go and take it out on him, was when they met, and if they met in the arena... and he was sure they would now...
Harry's guardian gods looked down into the globe as Duration walked into the room.
"How is your progress coming along?" she asked, her three demi-gods(past, present, and future) standing next to her. She had long blondish white hair and one black and one white wing. Her robes were of different colors and they seemed to glisten in the lighting of the room.
"Well so far so good, Affection has him love life wrapped around her little finger, and all in all the boy is doing great" Vivacity said as Duration smiled her wise smile.
" um.. Duration?" the entity turned to look over at Validty who looked a bit scared talking to someone as high as she.
" Yes Validity?' she asked as the god of strength swallowed a bit
"Well, could we go and actually watch it in person...?" he asked as the elder looked around at the expectant faces of the gods in the room. She smiled
" I don't see why not, it would give you all something to do, besides, our Mr Potter must know that he has more than one person rooting him on in this tournament" she said as they all smiled at her gratitude.
Well how did ya'll like it? I tried to explain the battle the best I could but I am afraid I lack a Beta and when I'm trying to write a climaxing part of a chapter... I'm at a total loss for words, it happens to the best of us I think. Anywho, tune in for the next chapter, I think i have decided that I will post one chapter per week( if I have them done) that way it gives me time to collect reviews and suggestions on how I could improve the story, and I would really like to hear what you have to say, and if I get any questions I promise to answer them the best I can, I'm not perfect so.. Yeah.
