Anime at Hogwarts
Hogwarts Express
King's Cross Station
Most of the summer was over and Kyo was happy. Learning magic was harder than he expected, not that he would admit this in front of Yuki. They were currently looking for platform 9 ¾. Huh? Wait a minute! Platform 9 and ¾? There was no such thing!
"Hey wait a minute! There is no Platform 9 ¾! The no good basterd tricked us!"
Shigure and Yuki sighed. Didn't Kyo listen to anything?
"Stupid cat, Professor Lupin told us where it was before we left. Platform 9 ¾ is in between Platforms 9 and 10. You have to go through the wall, idiot." explained a very annoyed Yuki.
"Shut up ya damn rat!" yelled Kyo.
While Kyo and Yuki bickered back and forth for a while, Shigure took the time to study the other people in the station. He found it odd that someone could just go through a wall with out anyone noticing. Were all English muggles stupid? He shook the thought out of his head as they reached two platforms.
"Who wants to go first?" asked Shigure.
"Are you sure that it's safe?" asked Yuki.
Kyo snickered, "Come on rat, I though you had more courage than that!"
"Well if you're so brave, why don't you go first?"
"Alright I will!"
Kyo backed up and started going head first into the wall. 'Heh, this will prove to that rat that I'm-' CRASH! Kyo crashed straight into the wall. Shigure and Yuki were shocked. They thought that it was safe! Then they noticed that they were in between Platforms 8 and 9, not 9 and 10. Oops! Everyone saw the crash and was either a) looking at them like they were insane, mental idiots, b) were snickering and making fun of them quietly or c) were laughing at them hysterically, (coughYusukeandKuwabaracough). Yuki and Shigure had never been so embarrassed in their life.
Kyo got up, with a massive headache, and saw all of the people staring at him. "WHAT ARE YOU ALL LOOKING AT!" Everyone suddenly started returning to their business and Yuki and Shigure started moving toward him.
Yuki glared, "Way to go cat, now we look like complete fools."
"SHUT UP RAT!"
Shigure broke the two apart, "I think that's enough, let's just get on our train, ok?"
They made their way to Platforms 9 and 10 stopped, for none of them wanted to go through the same fiasco.
Yuki looked at the wall, "I'm not going first."
"Well I'm as sure as hell not!" glared Kyo. They both looked at Shigure.
Shigure backed away, "Come on guys, your not making me go first are you?" Neither of them answered. Shigure sighed, "Fine, I'll go but I hope you know what mistake you're making." He took a few steps forward. "Here I go….never to see the light again…. I'll miss you Hari and Aya… blame it on Yuki and Kyo… Farewell, my last- Ahhhhhhhh!" Yuki took the honor of shoving Shigure through the wall. Both of them followed right after.
On the other side of the wall, Yuki and Kyo looked at the Platform in amazement; it had this magical feeling to it. The train looked magnificent, and the ground was so soft for some strange reason.
"Uh, guys can you get off of me?" whined Shigure.
They both got off of poor Shigure without apologizing. The three of them walked towards the train and Yuki and Kyo soon started to board the train. Shigure started to have second thoughts about them leaving, but it was too late now.
"Alright, contact me and report on what you know as often as possible. Dumbledore has the schedules already made for you so you guys won't be choosing you're classes. Stay safe." said Shigure.
Kyo rolled his eyes, "Yes mother," he said sarcastically.
Yuki and Kyo bid there farewells to Shigure and got on the Hogwarts Express. They took a compartment towards the back of the train and said nothing to each other for the most part. The train hadn't taken off yet and Yuki and Kyo were very bored. 'This is going to be a long ride.' thought Yuki. Kyo was also thinking along the same lines. Both boys jumped back to reality when they heard a loud crash from the compartment next to them. Neither of them thought anything about it. A little after that, the compartment door opened.
King's Cross Station (during all that was happening)
Ed was completely exhausted from all the learning he had to do over summer. He really hated the concept of magic to begin with and he hated it even more when he was learning it. Shacklebolt didn't make things any easier either. Ok, so he wasn't as hard as Sensei and he didn't leave him on an island for a month, but he was still a stickler with this magic crap. There were times when Ed wanted to break the stupid stick in half, but he knew if he broke his wand that Mustang would be furious and the mission would be a failure. Even on his way to the platform, Ed still had thoughts of torturing Mustang and Shacklebolt.
Suddenly a loud crash broke him from his thoughts. Ed looked up and saw an orange-headed guy that just crashed into the wall between platforms 8 and 9. Ed couldn't help but snicker. That guy and his friends must have thought that that was Platform 9 ¾. Mustang was also snickering next to Ed.
'Why did he have to come! I've gone on plenty of trains, yet he's still here trying to torture me just before I leave. He won't leave me alone for a second!' thought Ed. Ed started to forget about the weird guy that crashed into the wall and started thinking about way to torture Mustang again. They found themselves between platforms 9 and 10.
Mustang smirked, "Ok midget, go through the wall."
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A RUNT! I'M STILL GROWING YOU KNOW!"
"Just go through the wall Fullmetal!"
"Fine" Ed mumbled.
"Don't crash"
"SHUT UP!"
Ed mumbled a little more about Mustang and needing Riza's gun before running through the wall. When he got though the wall he looked around and he was amazed at the amount of kids on the platform. There were tons of students on the platform. 'And these are just a small amount of the wizarding population.' Ed thought, 'How many people know about this magic?'
Mustang appeared behind him. "Well it looks like you better get on the train Fullmetal."
They made their way through the crowd to the train. Mustang looked at Ed and said, "Remember what we went over in the hotel."
Ed glanced back at him and nodded. Back at the hotel they went over exactly what he had to do (reports, info, etc.). He boarded the train and found an empty compartment towards the back of the train. Ed wasn't used to the trains in England. The trains he was used to didn't have private compartments, just seats.
Ed quickly became bored and pulled out a book. After a while of reading his compartment opened up with a loud crash sounding with it.
King's Cross Station (while all that was happening)
Hiei stared at his wand for the millionth time asking himself why he didn't just screw the whole mission and burn the damn stick. Then he remembered that Yusuke threatened to tell Yukina and Kuwabara about him being Yukina's brother. Damn that detective! Hiei was going to strangle the detective when this stupid mission was all over. Hiei stopped looking at his wand and decided to analyze the station to keep his mind off of murdering Yusuke. The first thing he saw was some moron that collided with the wrong wall and Yusuke and Kuwabara laughing their heads off. 'Hn, fools' Hiei thought, but he had to admit to himself that that scene was somewhat funny. However, he wouldn't admit that to the others.
They stopped at platforms 9 and 10. No one wanted to go through the wall after the incident that happened not two minutes ago.
Kuwabara looked at the others, "So who wants to go first? Not me."
"Not me." stated Yusuke
"Hn" said Hiei.
Kurama sighed. He knew that the others were too stubborn to change their minds so he said, "I'll go."
"No need."
Kurama suddenly stared at Hiei. Did Hiei say that? Did Hiei want to go first? 'No,' thought Kurama, 'this isn't like him. He has something planned.' Then Kurama saw a quick flash and he smelled something burning.
"OWWWWW! HOT HOT HOT!" yelled Kuwabara. Hiei lighted Kuwabara's butt on fire. Kuwabara ran around in circles and coincidentally went through the wall.
Yusuke snickered, "Nice Hiei."
"Hn" Hiei replied.
Kurama chuckled, "Well, let's go though, shall we?"
The three of them went through the wall to find Kuwabara putting the fire out with the new magic stuff. Hiei glanced around the place. It wasn't very impressive to him and to his dismay he saw more humans then he could tolerate. 'Yippee' thought Hiei sarcastically. Next thing he saw was a pissed off Kuwabara in his face.
"WHAT WAS THAT FOR! YOU'RE GONNA BE SORRY SHORTY! I'LL MAKE YOU PAY!"
Kurama tried to calm Kuwabara down before he caused a riot. "Now is not the time Kuwabara. You're going to cause a worse scene then that boy in the station."
That got Kuwabara quiet. He was not going to be laughed at on the first day of school. The four of them boarded the train soon after the scenario. They looked around for a compartment towards the back of the train. Kurama was in front of the group and he stopped when he found a compartment with only one guy in it reading a book. Since he stopped, Yusuke bumped into him which made Kuwabara crash into Yusuke, and the impact caused Kurama to fall down with a loud crashing noise. Hiei just stared at them like they were idiots. Kurama stood up, ignoring Yusuke and Kuwabara shouting, and opened the compartment.
King's Cross Station (we go back in time yet again for Harry and company's story)
Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny were walking towards the platform as usual. All of them couldn't wait to go back to Hogwarts for a normal school year. Of course, school was never normal for them and their academics were usually at the bottom of there list of priorities (with the exception of Hermione). But this year all of them hoped that this year would be a regular year without them trying to fight Voldemort or one of his idiot minions. They weren't talking much to each other, just thinking, until they saw someone crash into the wall of platforms 8 and 9. Ron and Ginny cracked up, Hermione studied him, but Harry was too busy trying to remember where he had seen that guy before. Harry shrugged it off, thinking it was nothing, and the trio went on their way to the train.
"I think that's the first time anyone made that mistake. That was hilarious!" Ron said.
Hermione looked very thoughtful and after a while said, "I've never seen him before. He looks too old to be a first year. He doesn't look like he's from around him either."
"Maybe he's an exchange student." said Ginny.
"I don't think Dumbledore allows exchange students." said Harry, still trying to remember where he had seen that guy.
They went through the correct wall and boarded the train like usual. Ron and Hermione went to the prefects' compartment while Ginny and Harry went to go look for a compartment. They came to the compartment with Neville and Luna in it and went in.
"Hey Harry, hey Ginny!" greeted Neville.
"Hey Neville, Hi Luna!" said Ginny. Harry and Luna gave their hellos as well.
Harry Potter got bored real fast. Ginny and Neville were talking about something and Luna was reading the Quibbler. He wished that Ron and Hermione would hurry up with the whole prefects meeting, but he knew that it wouldn't be any time soon. Harry decided that he would wander around for a bit.
"Hey Ginny, if Ron and Hermione are done before I'm back, just tell them that I'm just wandering around and will be back soon." told Harry.
Ginny smiled, "Ok Harry."
"Thanks Gin."
Harry left the compartment and walked around a bit. He came across the compartment that the guy that ran into the wrong wall and his friend were in. Harry suddenly remembered seeing them in Diagon Ally fighting each other. He also remembered them calling each other cat and rat, but he pushed that thought aside and went in.
The two boys looked up. For a split second Harry wondered why he went in. He shook it off and said, "Hi, can I sit here?"
The orange haired one nodded and the other said, "Go ahead."
Harry sat down and decided to introduce himself. "I'm Harry Potter."
Kyo and Yuki looked at each other. They both recognized him from learning about the Avada Kedavra curse.
"I'm Yuki Sohma, and this is my cousin Kyo Sohma. It's nice to meet you."
"Same here." replied Harry, "You guys don't sound familiar. Are you exchange students?"
"Yes, we come from Japan."
"Japan! Wow. Your English is really good."
"We're using translation necklaces."
"Really? Do you guys know much about Hogwarts?"
"Not much." admitted Yuki, "We heard something about houses, but that's pretty much all we heard."
"Well, there are four houses, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin. Gryffindors is for the brave and loyal, Ravenclaw is for the smart and intelligent, Hufflepuff is for the kind-hearted, and Slytherin is for the cunning." explained Harry.
"What house are you in?" asked Yuki.
"Gryffindor" replied Harry.
"What are the teachers like?" asked Kyo.
"Very weird, the only one you really need to look out for is Snape. He's the potions master. He treats the Slytherins like royalty while he completely trash."
Yuki, Kyo, and Harry talked about many other things during the trip. However, Harry didn't want to bring up the wall incident. He knew all too well how it felt to be embarrassed. They covered the basics of Hogwarts, Shigure, Ron and Hermione, Tohru Honda, and Harry was just finished telling them about Quidditch when Ron and Hermione opened the compartment door.
"Hey mate, we've been looking for you everywhere!" said Ron. He saw Yuki and Kyo, "Hey, aren't you the one who ran into the wrong wall at the station?" Harry mentally grimaced, that was the one subject that he didn't want to bring up. 'Nice going Ron' thought Harry.
Kyo just glared at him, "So what? What are you gonna do about it, huh?"
Hermione cut in before Ron could say anything, "Ignore Ron, he's just being inconsiderate. I'm Hermione Granger and this is Ronald Weasley. It's nice to meet you." Ron gave her a look when she said "inconsiderate" but he said nothing.
Yuki smiled at her and said, "I'm Yuki Sohma and this is Kyo Sohma."
"Are you brothers? You don't look alike." asked Ron.
Yuki shook his head, "No, we're cousins. I already have one insane brother, I don't need another."
Ron looked surprised, "You don't like your brother."
"He's a complete idiot." said Kyo.
The five of them talked all the way to Hogwarts. When the train stopped, they all got out and Harry, Ron, and Hermione started towards the carriages.
Hermione looked at them, "I think you might have to go with the first years since you're new."
Hagrid then called out, "Firs' years and exchange students over here!"
Harry looked at them and said, "We'll see you in the Great Hall."
Yuki and Kyo bid there farewells as they headed out to Hagrid.
"Make sure you're in Gryffindor!" Ron called out.
The groups parted and Yuki and Kyo headed off to Hogwarts.
Ed's Compartment (back when Harry and Ginny got on the train)
Ed stared at this weird group. He had seen weirder things, yes, but this group was just plain strange. There was a guy with too much gel in his hair arguing with a guy that had an Elvis-hairstyle gone wrong, a guy or girl with long red hair (Ed couldn't tell), and a guy with hair that defied all laws of gravity.
The red-head asked Ed, "Can we sit here?"
Ed nodded, not knowing if it was a good idea for them to sit with him.
The four sat down. The two guys stopped arguing and started to throw angry glances at each other.
The red-head smiled and said, "I'm Shuichi Minamino, but my friends call me Kurama."
Ed looked at him, just figuring out he was a guy. "I'm Edward Elric, call me Ed."
The bad-hairstyle head finally stopped glaring at the other guy and introduced himself, "I'm Kasuma Kuwabara."
The other guy arguing with Kuwabara introduced himself, "Yusuke Urameshi."
Ed glanced at anti-gravity head. He looked like one of those guys who couldn't care less about the world or anything else. Ed noticed that he was also his size. 'Please, please, let him be a sixth-year' Ed thought unconsciously.
"Hn," was all that came out of anti-gravity head's mouth.
Kurama didn't expect much from Hiei, "This is Hiei Jaganshi; we're all exchange students from Japan."
Ed smiled, he wouldn't be alone! "I'm a exchange student as well." But when he really thought about it, Mustang did tell him earlier that Dum-what's-his-face didn't allow exchange students on a regular basis. 'I'll have to keep my eye on them.' thought Ed.
Kurama was thinking the same, 'I thought Koenma said that exchange students were not usually accepted in Hogwarts.' Kurama knew he would have to watch Ed, 'Maybe he's a Death Eater.'
Despite their thoughts about each other, Ed and Kurama put smiles on their faces and acted like it was nothing.
The train ride was really interesting for Ed. He never really talked to the others, but there were a couple fights between Kuwabara and Yusuke, some were actually physical, and surprisingly many fights between Kuwabara and Hiei. That's when Ed remembered them from Diagon Ally.
"YOU'RE GOING DOWN MIDGET!"
'Haha,' thought Ed, 'whose the midget now?'
The train stopped and the five got off the train.
"So, where do we go know?" asked Yusuke.
Ed shrugged.
Suddenly a very tall man shouted out, "Firs' years and exchange students over here!"
Kuwabara smiled, "Well, that answers our question."
The five of them walked towards the boats and headed off to Hogwarts.

Shadowgirl: You guys can go ahead and kill me for not updating earlier. Sorry if the scenes with Harry, Ron, and Hermione seem off. I find it really hard to write about them more then the anime characters because they don't have…uh, let's say extreme emotions. Please review!
