JJ: Ana is the same age as harry, give or take a few months. Moyra is 13 right now in the story
Jasonc: lol, as to when Harry is proved innocent, as I've said before I have a few future chapters written already, and that one is one of them. Now I'm right at a little after Harry has a run in with Ron and Hermoine. So it shouldn't be tooooo long, but it wont be withing the next week.
Quillian: You are the weirdest reviewer I've ever met! But thank you!so here is a mass answer to your questions in order. Its AU but there will be OOtP in it. No one will know what happened to his stuff yet, give it a few more chapters, Monty Python is God, what comic book character? Are asking who? Cause if you are, its Hellboy, movie was good, comics are better! You will know magnetos thoughts on it in a few chapters, and as for proving his innocence you'll just have to wait! Lol
Toras: interaction between the betraying basterds will be in the next chapter I think, and more in the chapter after.
Jasonc: I'm just about to write that scene now!
Dr. Gero: Aw man! See this is why you should move to Canada! We get the kick ass cartoons! Not to mention the sucky economy and retarded poiticans (I'm not referring to anyone on parliament hill) I'll tell you what, when you get to the end of this chapter, keep reading.
Chapter 24
Boycotting Breakfast
"I can stay?" came the raspy voice from under Ana's chin.
Logan looked at the state of the boy. "Yeah kid, you get to stay."
They heard him sigh and Ana went back to stroking his hair as he fell into a peaceful slumber a small smile on his lips.
Morning was a strange affair. Everyone had woken up and gathered in the common room where Ana and Harry had spent the night. They now sat on the same couch hands clasped, hers reminding his that they would not be separated. They all went silent when Logan stalked in, careful of what they said and very mindful of the fact that the short Canadian had not had his morning coffee yet. They all seemed pleased with his news that they were going to stay and weren't really that phased by the restricting of their powers. It was understandable and they already did it in public anyways.
It was the news about Harry that had them in an uproar.
"So what is he supposed to just wait here alone while we're all like happily eating away?" Asked an outraged Kitty.
"This is so unfair! I'd like to see the proof they have against him! From what we heard it was all circumstance!" Cried Scott, followed by nods and "Yeah!'s" from others.
"Look they wont budge on the fact that they think he's guilty. This was their final terms. The wiz here isn't gonna stay down here himself." Reasoned Logan, which was well done considering his caffeine levels.
They weren't happy with it but they soon devised a plan that Logan was pleased with. So with everyone dressed, they marched out leaving Rahne, Moyra and Ana with Harry. Not to long after they had left, the portrait opened again and they all returned laughing and carrying plates of food and utensils, cups and pitchers of juice. They recounted the story to the others how they had marched into the Great hall, not even glancing at the ceiling, heading straight for the table that had been conjured for them and placed just below the head table. They laughed at how the professors smiles had turned to confusion when they began to clear the table of all its food and cutlery. The reenacted how The Deputy Headmistress had confronted them and asked them just what they thought they were doing!
"And we said to her" giggle, "That since they wont let our Harry in to eat, we wont let them eat with us! And we turned for the door and marched straight back out!"
Harry laughed at the image of his old Transfiguration Instructor being told off by a bunch of kids. The common room was filled with the smells of rolls and bacon. They all feasted on the fine cooking and after a few dares were made, took turns to see who was brave enough to try the pumpkin juice. They had all given Harry looks of awe when they saw him drink two goblets in a row. Harry had been laughing so hard at comments Kitty had made about the stuff that he didn't hear the portrait open, nor did he see the headmaster walk in. It wasn't until he noticed how everyone had fallen silent did he look up. The headmaster was watching him with an unreadable expression in his eyes. "Well," He started, addressing them all, "It good to see you all are enjoying yourselves. I trust that the rooms were suitable?" At their cautious nods he smiled at them, but avoided Harry's gaze. "I am here to speak with your instructor, actually, do any of you know where I might find him?"
Logan stepped out from the back of the room and walked forward, and stopped when he had reached a safe distance from the old man. "Ah yes Logan, I came to show you the class rooms that have been set aside for your students various needs. They can be used for what ever purpose suits you."
Nodding Logan thanked the man and escorted him out with the explanation the he had to get the kids started right away. At the door he told them to clean up the dishes and then they were free to unpack their things.
Harry and Jamie set about unpacking with the younger boy asking questions about the castle.
"Do all the portraits have dorms behind them?"
"No, James, but a few have secret passages."
"What happened to all the dishes after we put them on the table? Why did they just disappear?"
"I think the house elves took them when we weren't looking."
"Why do the paintings move?"
"Well you cant expect them to just hang around all day!"
Harry stopped at that, realizing he had echoed Ron's words from 7 years ago. Jamie, who recognized Harry's silence for what it was, quickly thought of something else to say. "So do you think I have a chance with Moyra?"
"WHAT?!?"
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
But Harry was right when he thought that the wizarding world wouldn't sit idle while their new most hated murderer sat within Hogwarts. Not long after the headmaster left, Logan had gone with a few of the older mutants to inspect the class rooms. Harry heard a great commotion coming from the common room. But just as he was about to go investigate His door was thrown open and Ana dashed in, shutting the door behind her. "Harry it's the Minister! He here with a bunch of Aurors! We have to hide you! Jamie! Get down there and cause a ruckus! We need time till Pietro gets back with Logan and Dumbledore!" Nodding the small boy ran out the door, but not before thumping himself on the chest, popping out a few clones. After he had left Ana grabbed his arm and pulled him out the door heading higher up the tower. As they searched for a suitable hiding place, they could hear the Shouts coming from behind them. "Harry hurry."
"STOP RIGHT THERE!" Shouted a figure, who had rushed up after them. They turned and Harry felt his stomach drop. An Auror, dressed in ministry robes, had his wand pointed right at him. "All right Potter, no sudden movements, your going to come with me down stairs, understand?" It happened so quickly, Ana reached for her wand, desperate not to let the man take away her remaining best friend. Seeing her move the Auror switched targets and blasted her with a stunning spell. The force hit her right in the middle and she was knocked hard against the stone wall.
"ANA!" he shouted while trying to get to her, but the Auror moved his wand back to him.
"Don't even try it! Now get moving!" Forcefully grabbing him, the Auror shoved him down the steps, with Harry looking back until he lost sight of his friend passed out on the steps. 'Oh god please let her be ok.' He wished desperately as he struggled to get out of the mans grip. When the reached the entrance to the common room, he smiled inwardly at the chaos.
Rouge was arguing with a red faced Fudge, and many of the new mutants were doing the same with several of the Aurors scattered around the room. No one had yet used their powers, but he could see quite a few just itching to scare the crap out of the men.
"I found him Minister!" Shouted the Auror that still held him at wand point. Fudge turned from his 'conversation' with the dangerous mutant, and held a triumphant smirk when he spotted Harry.
"Well, I suppose it was a nice try Mr. Potter, but your ego will be your downfall! Take him away!" He ordered, just as the portrait opened again.
"Someone wanna tell me whats goin on here?" Growled out Logan, unsheathing his claws, as the rest of the mutants took formation behind him, all prepared to take the robed men out.
"You will stand aside, Dumbledore might put up with your nonsense but I wont! This boy is a murdering traitor and I will not endanger this school by leaving him in it!" said Fudge rather pompously.
"That kid isn't goin anywhere." The Canadian mutant said with a tone of finality. "Harry, get over here." But as he tried to step forward the Auror that had been holding him at wand point grabbed his shoulder painfully. He saw all the mutants tense, ready for battle, when Dumbledore entered the room.
Surveying the situation, the powerful wizard turned to the Minister and said in an apologetic tone, "I am sorry Minister, but I can not allow you to remove Mr. Potter from this school."
Fudge bristled at the news and shouted "And why not? You would go against me?"
"I'm afraid that I gave a wizards oath that the students of Xavier would not be removed from the school in return for their help in the war. And as I am the headmaster of this school, the oath is strengthened by Hogwarts itself. I assure you that you will be quite unable to remove him from the grounds."
"You can't be serious! To leave this murdering brat within the school is unthinkable!"
"But it is all we can do. Mr. Potter has been given many restrictions to ensure my students safety, and if any are disobeyed then he will be arrested. Now if you would like to further discuss this perhaps we should adjourn to my office." With that the headmaster led the sputtering minister out, followed by the reluctant Aurors.
Once the portrait had closed again, the mutants visibly relaxed. "Everyone ok?" asked Logan's voice.
"Ana! They hit with a stunner!" Harry yelled realizing that his friend was still upstairs. Turning he raced back the way he came and skidded to a halt in front of his friend just as she was coming too. "Ana are you ok? Oh Merlin you shouldn't have done that I cant believe that I di-" his ramblings were cut short by her hand smacking over his mouth with the other hand holding her head.
"Jack, shut up. Oohhhh My head." Removing the hand from his mouth he gingerly felt the bum on her head where it hit the wall.
"I think we should head downstairs." He suggested, helping her to her feet.
"What happened? Whats going on?" She asked while they walked slowly down the stairs.
"They were about to try and take me away when Dumbledore came in saying that cause of his oath, they wouldn't be able to force me to leave the grounds."
"Oh," she said simply, "Well that's good."
They rejoined the others, and after reassuring them all that they were both ok, Logan ordered them all to stay on guard as he went to go see what was happening with the Headmaster.
Retuning an hour later, he had some news. "They're gonna be back in a few days with some officials. They wanna record exactly we can do with out powers."
It was Scott who spoke up first. "So its like the mutant registration act?"
"Its more like they wanna see if we're worth our price." When they all started to ask him what he meant by that he gave a sigh and looked over in Harry's direction. "This minister guy really wants the wiz here back in prison. So I said that if they try and take him, we all leave with the kid. Now this guy wants to see if we're worth the trouble, if we'll be of any use in the war. So in a few days some suits will be here to 'test' us." He finished with a grimace.
But instead of the anger and frustration that might have been expected, Logan was greeted with a crowd of evil and malicious grins. "Well then, " said Rouge, "We'll halfve ta put on a good show"
AN: Ok this chapter took a while to get out. I totally redid it too. Now its 3 am, and I cant type anymore cause I'm soo tired. So if it doesn't sound perfect I'm really sorry.
Also this is a guide for those who don't know who is who!!! In the show that I'm basing this crossover with, there are three groups of mutants. X-men along with the new recruits, The Brotherhood, who used to be Magnetos henchmen, and the Acolytes, who are Magnetos new and improved henchmen.
X-men
Professor Charles Xavier: If you don't know who this is (smack) what are you doing reading a x-men crossover!?!? Hes a telepath and founder of the x-men and the institute.
Storm: Ororo Munroe, can control weather, has a nephew Evan 'Spike' Danials, who is currently captured by Voldemort
Beast: Hank McCoy, a big blue hary guy, who is a brilliant scientist and loves literature.
Wolverine: Logan, again if you don't know who this is, (slap) Adimantiam (not sure if that's how you spell it) claws and a healing power.
Cyclops: Scott Summers, shoots lasers out of his eyes, and cant control it so hes got to wear red glasses all the time. He also is the leader of the X-men and acts like hes got a stick up his bum. But over all a pretty good guy.
Jean Grey: …….. Jean Grey. Telepath, telekinesis (moves things with her mind) I don't like her at all, so she wont be in the fic much at all!
Nightcrawler: Kurt Wagner, Teleportation/Acrobatic Prowess/Prehensile Tail, hes blue and really cool! German, Mystique is his mother, but he was raised by a nice village couple in germany instead, lucky him!
Rouge: Marie but not well known fact. Power & Memory Absorption.

BROTHERHOOD: Is technically under Magnetos control, but I think they kinda made it their own.
Avalanche: Lance Alvers, (Alverslance, he a walking pun! Tut tut) Ok the site says Geological Manipulation, but I'm just going to say he causes earthquakes, and can control the earth. Hes the leader of the brotherhood, even though Pietro is supposed to be in charge.
Blob: Fred Dukes, Think Dudley with a Mohawk and Invulnerable skin. Nothing can hurt him, not even logans claws. Pretty dull though and hates to be laughed at.
Quicksilver: Pietro Maximoff, Super-Speed. And with Draco Malfoy's personality.
Scarlet Witch: Wanda Maximoff, Hex Powers, Wanda's powers allow her to "Hex" anyone in her path. The "Hex" causes everything to turn against the victim and in Wanda's favor. And she hates ppl trying to control her, just imagine what shes going to do when she gets her hands on Voldemort!!!
