Ash had been staying at the Dursleys for two weeks and he could see why Harry was ecstatic about having a twin brother. The duo had recieved letters from Hogwarts about their school supplies and were going in a couple of minutes. Or whenever Remus decides to arrive.
"Ash! Remus is here!" Harry called up the stairs.
He got up from his perch by the window. "Be right down! C'mon, Noctowl."
The owl pokemon rested on Ash's forearm. Ash slung his bag on his shoulder and they went downstairs, Pikachu tailing behind them. A man of about thirty in shaggy robes was waiting in the living room. He was relatively thin and pale.
"You okay, sir?"
"I'm fine, Ash. That's an unusual owl you have there."
Noctowl hooted indignantly. "Er, Noctowl doesn't like being called unusual, just because of his coloring and smaller size." The owl hooted again. "Er. Make that growth impaired." Noctowl nodded in approval.
Remus chuckled. "Remus Lupin. I'll be the DADA teacher this year."
"Really? Thank God! I don't know what I'd do if we had another phony for three years running!" Harry cheered and hugged the werewolf.
"Don't thank me, Harry. I'm quite curious as to why Ash looks so much like you."
"We're twins." They synchronized.
"Were you practicing on that?"
"No." Came the timed answer. "Fred and George.." "Do it all the time."
"Oh great, they're finishing the other's sentences already. God help me." Remus muttered. "Let's get going to Diagon Alley."

Ash stood shakily from the fireplace and leaned on Harry. "I am NEVER doing that again."
Harry shrugged. "You get used to it, Ashey-boy."
Ash glared at him. "Only my rival calls me that and it is annoying as hell. Call me that again and I'll set up an appointment with Pikachu for you."
Harry gulped and swore he saw the mouse pokemon grin evilly.
"Bless my soul, it's Ash Potter." The bartender stared and silence was issued all around.
"Welcome back, Mr. Potter." "You're truly alive?" "What have you been up to?" "Good to see another Potter." were the immediate responses and Ash was swamped in questions. Good thing he was used to it, being a Pokemon Master. Pikachu shocked the ones who got too close, including one Rita Skeeter much to Harry's delight.
"Excuse me, but I have to get my school supplies." Ash replied to all the questions. Noctowl swooped over their heads and gave the twins a chance of escape.
"That was exciting. Thank you for doing that to Skeeter, Pikachu. Ash, you really don't want her to 'interview' you." Harry told him as Remus came pushing out of the crowd.
"Let's go boys." He opened the gateway to Diagon Alley. "Welcome, Ash, to Diagon Alley."
Their first stop was Olivander's. The old man smiled at Ash. "I wondered when you would be here, Mr. Potter. You have changed much in your years away from this world, you will have to make your own wand."
"Lugia?" Olivander smiled. "I wondered what you did in your spare time. But this goes a little too far."
"I am but one of several, remember?"
"True. Let's go make that wand! I still got that Silver Wing."
The shop owner led Ash to the back. Unfortunately for Harry, Malfoy chose that moment to show up.
"If it isn't Potter. Need a new wand because the Dark Lord broke your's?" Harry glared at the platinum blonde.
"Pikachu, can you do me a favor?" He looked down mischieviously at the electric pokemon. His ears twitched in curiousity. "Can you thundershock that git, please?"
"Chu!"
"Talking to rodents now? I think Wormtail got to you." FZZT. Malfoy was charred with his over gelled hair sticking up all over the place.
"I don't think Pikachu likes being called a rodent, Malfoy. Thanks, buddy." The small pokemon leapt onto Harry's shoulder.
"Hey, Harry! Finished my wand." Ash called and ran up to his twin. He looked at Malfoy weirdly and back to Pikachu. "What happened?"
"The git's Draco Malfoy, my rival. He's in Slytherin. Let's see that wand of yours."
"Sure. Oak and Silver Wing, thanks go to Lugia for that. You know, it pays to be friends with the Legendaries." Ash's wand was a shimmering silver because of the silver wing within.
"Wicked. Malfoy, I'd like you to meet my twin, Ash."
Malfoy's eyes widened in disbelief. "Two of you? I think I've gone mad."
"Or.." Harry started.
"You're going to." Ash finished.
Malfoy ran off screaming. Harry collapsed in laughter with Ash right behind him and Remus chuckling.
"Oi! Harry! That you?" Ron shouted running up to the laughing twins. "I thought I saw Malfoy run out of Diagon Alley screaming like a banshee."
"You.." "guessed right."
"Oh, no. They're at it again." Remus groaned.
"What?" Ron turned to Remus curiously.
"Ash and Harry. They're finishing each other's sentences again. It's getting annoying."
"It's not.." "our fault."
"I see what you mean."
"Ron, I'd like you to meet my brother, Ash. That's Pikachu and Noctowl is somewhere." Harry regained control and quieted his laughter to irregular chuckles.
"I heard all about you, Ron. Harry says that you two get into trouble together often." Ash held out his hand. "Name's Ash Potter, Pokemon master of the world."
"You can drop the title, you know."
"Sorry, it's a habit of mine I guess."
"You don't see me bragging about being the-boy-who-lived."
"I was thought it was the-boy-who-won't-die."
"Very funny, Ash."
"I thought so, too."
"Oh, shut it."
"Okay."
"I think I'll be going insane this year." Ron grumbled as Noctowl swooped down onto Ash's shoulder. "Wicked owl. How does it do that sparkly thing?"
"It's a Shining Noctowl, that answer your question?"
"I suppose, mate. Wonder if Hermione's read about them, too." He and Harry exchanged amused chuckles. "One can only wonder right?"
"Yep. Let's get out books. Think that bag of yours can hold all of them?"
"If it can hold all my pokeball, a blanket, camping equipment and a picture of our family, I think it can hold a few books. Mewtwo is a genious when it comes to dimensional folds and stuff like that. How else could he conjour a storm out of nothing?"
"-_-; Good point." With that the quartet made their way to Flourish and Blotts.
****************
Done! Did you like it, Draco?
Draco: *coughs out smoke* Why me? Why do I get shocked by that little rodent?
Pikachu: Piika....*lightning crackles.*
Draco: *gulp*
Draco, Pikachu, play nice. No Thunder or Thunder bolts.
Pikachu: Chu. *Thundershocks Draco*
That's acceptable. Ja.
"Ash! Remus is here!" Harry called up the stairs.
He got up from his perch by the window. "Be right down! C'mon, Noctowl."
