TITLE: Harry Potter and the Crossing Over
DISCLAIMER: J.K. Rowling owns all Harry Potter people. I'm only playing in her universe for a while.
DEDICATION: To the guy known as A.T.M. You taught me how to consider my real characteristics and strengths. It probably wasn't your intention, but hey, I'm not thanking you for it. (Bastard broke my heart, if you haven't figured that out.)
A/N: I know the time period is off, but I wanted it set my way. Also, majorly A/U now that OOTP came out. Set in Harry's 5th year, if anyone's interested.
A/N 2: Okay, peeps, if any of y'all recognize more than one event that happened in life, e-mail me immediately! I'll be forced to perform a memory charm on you for knowing who I really am.
Chapter 4:
Several minutes later the small group had found its way to the Headmaster's office. Mercy and Alvin glanced at each other before Alvin asked the question that was on both of their minds, Why are we here?
You two will be the downfall of Voldemort. It was said that two teenagers, cousins of a sort from the line of Feeley, would appear during their twelfth year, three years and six days after the new millennium. She would be a descendent of the Casna/Feeley line while he a Garrick/Feeley. These two would change bitter hatred into love. Both with fair hair and crystal eyes, they'll be competitive with each other. While he'll be sly and cunning, she'll have a personality that no one can place. Niece and nephew to a hidden spy for the good, the three will combine with their soul mates, her best friend, a fixed darkness, a hero, a light snake, a curse breaker, and a wrongly convicted animal person as well as the hero's friends and curse breaker's family who will each find their soul mates to vanquish the evil Lord.
Twelfth year? Niece and nephew to a spy? Soul mates, best friend, fixed darkness, hero, snake, curse breaker, animal person? Harry questioned.
I think I can answer most of that, Mercy said thoughtfully, Twelfth year—
Senior year, Alvin interrupted, Makes sense. I don't get the rest though.
Well, if you would let me finish. It's obviously talking about us. Niece and nephew to a hidden spy. We're related to Professor Snape somehow.
Very good. You can call me Severus, by the way.
Thanks, Uncle Sev, She grinned at his wince, Soul mates and best friend? Well, it's our soul mates and my best friend. Not a clue for the soul mates but my best friend would be Justin Millosh, She paused, Okay, fixed darkness. Remus Lupin. A werewolf, but Uncle Sev makes the Wolfsbane Potion to stop the dark in him. A hero. Obviously Harry here, he defeated Voldemort the first time. A light snake, She paused, Definitely a Slytherin, my guess would be Draco Malfoy, She looked up questioningly.
Dumbledore answered, Are you thinking his coloring or his personality?
Both. I imagine he's a spy. Curse breaker . . . Harry, you can answer that one I should think.
Bill Weasley?
Exactly. And the last one's easy. Sirius Black. An animagus. And Harry's friends and Bill's family.
How the heck did you figure all of that out? I sat and read that over and over again for weeks before I understood who each was, Severus said.
Simple. I'm a genius.
Alvin laughed, No, you just read too much.
Yea, that, too. Besides, who else could it be? *I'm the author, I get to decide what the prophecy says and who it refers to . . . =)* So, now that we know who the prophecy refers to, what do we do?
Hey, Uncle Sev? Alvin questioned.
What? And why must you two refer to me by that infernal nickname?
Because it's fun. But, since you knew who everyone was, why didn't you . . . He trailed off uncertainly and Mercy jumped in.
Help Sirius and Remus and Harry? You knew that you had a niece and nephew out there that would most likely be friends with Harry.
For the same reason that Draco hasn't been nice to Harry. It would have blown my role as a spy. But that's pretty much shot now with you two here.
The two blondes grinned, Good. We didn't want you spying any ways, Mercy said.
Suddenly the door flew open, Professor Dumbledore! There was a Death Eater at Diagon Alley! He was chasing these two teenagers and— The young blonde froze as he realized who was in the Headmaster's office.
Yes, Draco, we know, Severus smiled, Mercy, Alvin, allow me to introduce Draco Malfoy. Draco, this is my niece Mercy Dellan and nephew Alvin Garrick.
Mercy smiled, It's nice to meet you, Draco. I like knowing that we're working with someone as dedicated and talented as you.
Um, Professor Dumbledore? Draco looked at the Headmaster, Should I come back later?
Now is a good time. They know everything already.
Draco questioned, You told them about me and . . . He hesitated.
Well, maybe not everything, Severus replied, They don't know about me either.
What? What don't we know? Alvin asked.
Draco paused, Severus is my uncle, for one thing. Well, kind of. He's my father's cousin.
Harry spoke up, That's not really a big deal.
I know, Draco glared at him, I was getting to it.
I'm sure Harry didn't mean any harm. It's just been a very long day and we're all a bit impatient with secrets now, Mercy interrupted the brewing fight with an explanation, Go ahead and continue. Harry won't say anything now.
He hesitated, I guess it would be easiest just to come out and say it. I'm gay.
Me, too, Severus added, I know in the Muggle world, gay people are frowned upon and I'll understand if you would rather not associated with us.
Hold up! Mercy exclaimed, I can't speak for Alvin on this, but I really don't care if you're gay. One of my best friends is gay. He came out two years ago. It didn't change anything between us.
Alvin nodded, Jerry's awesome. Mercy's right. It doesn't matter.
Dumbledore approved.
Draco looked hesitantly at Harry, Well, Potter? You're the only one who has yet to say anything.
Harry chuckled, Malfoy, if we're going to have to work together in this you might as well call me Harry. And you might as well know, I'm gay, too.
Mercy couldn't help but smirk, Well, imagine that.
Merce, hush. Don't even try it.
Just ruin all my fun, why don't you, Al?
He laughed, That is my reason for living. But I'm serious.
But it's just such a coincidence.
Shush, you, He grinned, Let's not even go there.
Go where? What are you referring to? Al, I think you may be assuming things. And you know what happens when you assume something.
Yea, it makes an ass out of you and me. Funny, Merce. But just because we haven't been on pleasant terms for the last year doesn't mean that I don't know the way your mind works. And I'm not proud to say that. Your mind is a scary, scary thing.
Oh, shut up, She pouted.
S.U.! I'm telling Mr. C.! Alvin grinned at her.
When? First off, we're not in band. Second, She smirked, You may not have noticed, but we don't exactly appear to be in Ditzy Dessy, anymore.
When we get back, of course, He stuck his tongue out at her.
Use it or lose it, boy.
Mercy, that's illegal! Total incest!
She rolled her eyes, You know what I meant.
No, I don't. Perhaps you should elaborate?
Oh, bite me!
Gladly. Where?
She held out her arm, Hold it right there, you two! Severus interrupted.
The two blondes innocently looked at their uncle, What did we do? Mercy questioned, smiling.
That's enough of your antics for now. Look, you're scaring Harry and Draco here. There not used to . . . He trailed off, trying to think of a word to describe the two.
Mischief makers such as ourselves? Alvin offered.
Devious schemers? Mercy grinned.
Severus, I think the term you may be looking for is Muggle teenagers, The Headmaster said.
Exactly! Where do you get all that energy? Severus questioned.
Dr. Pepper! Mercy exclaimed by way of explanation, Truthfully, I'm addicted to the stuff. It's my daily dose of caffeine. Although, I've find that White Chocolate Mochas work almost just as well. Or Caramel Mochas.
What are you going to do without an espresso stand, Merce?
If I can get my hands on a espresso machine, everything will be just fine.
I could possibly transfigure one for you, Severus offered.
That would be super, Uncle Sev! Hold on, I just thought about part of the prophecy. Oh! Did you know—
I think that they should discover that for themselves, Miss Dellan, Professor Dumbledore interrupted her.
Why? That's no fun, She pouted.
Discover what? Severus asked, Did I miss something in the prophecy?
No, Uncle Sev. I just remembered the part before Voldemort. Soul mates!
For all of us, Merce, Alvin frowned, How the heck are we going to figure that one out?
That's for me to know and for you to find out.
Great, just great.
Professor Dumbledore interrupted the two, Now, I do believe you two will be needing supplies. Severus, perhaps you would escort them tomorrow along with your nephew and Harry to get their things? I imagine they'll need to port key to Muggle London as well as the normal school supplies.
Oh, that would be great! Would you, Uncle Sev? Mercy pleaded, turning blue puppy dog eyes on him.
I suppose I could manage that. But only if all four of you promise to behave.
Of course, Professor Snape. I didn't quite finish all my errands today before I ran into these two, Harry eagerly put in.
I guess I could go. Just because there's nothing better for me to do, Draco agreed.
Oh, yay! This is going to be so much fun. I can't wait! Mercy started bouncing in her seat.
Great, now what are we supposed to do with her? She'll be like this for at least another half hour, Alvin complained as the five left the Headmaster's office fifteen minutes later, Plus, it's late and I'm tired, and I don't know where we're going to sleep.
I have a few rooms near me that will work. Especially since I'm sure Draco and Harry will want to stay near you two tonight.
Sounds like a plan then, Mercy settled down for a moment, But, what about tomorrow? Alvin and I don't have any money, or even other clothes.
Each of the Feeley line has their own personal vault at Gringott's and I believe the house elves have taken care of your belongings, Severus reassured her.
