1830 Hours Zulu
Entry Hall at Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry
Dumbledore turns to Percy and takes in the men with him, finding their clothing and equipment to be odd compared to the British aurors and hit wizards standard apparel. He turns to the man beside Percy, " Hello I am Albus Dumbledore, I welcome you to Hogwarts."
Capt Carter approaches Albus to greet him, " Hello Headmaster Dumbledore, My name is Capt David Carter. These are the squads that your government requested to help secure the Triwizard Tournament. The Marine Squad NCO is Sgt Becker, the Army Squad NCO is Sgt Smith. I am in overall command of the two squads and Sgt Becker is my most senior NCO." Dumbledore approaches the two squads and starts going down the formation of military personnel. When he gets to Harry he looks at his name tape, " Your first name wouldn't happen to b..be Harrison would it?" He asks, his face going pale hoping he found the missing Potter heir, because ever since he left Harrison 'Harry' Potter at his uncles and he disappeared he has fallen from grace with everyone who knew Harry's parents.
Cpl Gibbs looks to his Sgt for permission to speak while in formation, Sgt Becker turns and nods his head to the young man. Upon receiving permission to speak, Harry steps forward and turns to address Dumbldore, " Yes Sir, Cpl Harrison 'Harry' Potter-Gibbs at your service, but please refer to me as Cpl Gibbs or Cpl Potter-Gibbs sir." Upon finishing his sentence Harry steps back into his place in the formation.
A sparkle appears in Dumbledore's eye upon seeing the son of two of his best students, " Yes, well Cpl Potter perhaps we can have a chat at some point about the second last name you have there and we could have a chat about your parents." He turns and heads back to the front to address the assembled military personnel, "Well we were waiting for you to arrive before starting our feast. So please stand here for about 5 minutes while I introduce you. You will be allowed to sit at any table, there are 4 student tables to sit at, so please choose where your men will sit." Albus turns and heads into the great hall, upon which time Capt Carter turns to address the men and women under his command," alright Mage Division fireteam Alpha will be at table 1. Cpl Gibbs you're the NCO leading Fire team alpha, Fire Team Bravo lead by Sgt Becker will be at table 2, Fire team Charlie will lead by Sgt Smith will be at Table 3, and I will lead Fireteam Delta and we will sit at table 4. Now you all know what fireteam you are so stack up and prepare for entry."
Fireteam Alpha Stacks up behind Harry, with all other fireteams being shoulder width apart and stacking up behind their respective leaders.

Great hall
1845 Zulu ( while fireteams are stacking up)
Albus Dumbldore approaches the teachers table and turns to address the students of both Hogwarts and the visiting schools of Durmstrand and Beauxbatons. "Students of both my Alumni Hogwarts and our visiting friends of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons, I am pleased to announce that MACUSA has lent England a helping hand with Security for the Triwizard tournament. These men and women are from the MACUSA Mage division of the US Military. They are both Soldiers and wizards so please give our friends from across the pond a warm welcome, but please know that they have the authority to render you harmless if you give them a reason to see you as a threat to the security of the school and this tournament. They will also be patrolling the hallways the same as the prefects but they will place you under arrest and escort you to the headmaster of your school." Albus finishes as he motions to the doors and they swing open prompting the fire teams formation to march inside and proceed to their assigned tables.
(Pov switch to Daphne and her friend Tracy Davis sitting at the slytherin table)
As the MACUSA Mage division military personnel marched in, a young woman sitting at the table for their house was talking to her friend. She is 5'2,her blonde hair hair slowing down to her lower back and blue eyes that you could lose yourself in when you gaze into wore a mask of indifference to the people marching in wearing clothing that was weird to everyone but the Soldiers and Marines, and wielding black objects in their hands that did not look like wands to her. This young girl leaned over to her friend, " So what do you think of the Ministry allowing these people to come over to assist with security Trace?"
Her Friend looked at all the 24 new people in the great hall, " I don't know Daph, I understand they are worried about more death eater copycats. But they are taking this a bit far don't you think?" Tracy is a young woman of about 5'4, her darker blonde hair being shoulder length,her face had a look of indifference the same as her friends. But her hazel eyes foretold the mischief that she would love to unleash.
As Daphne and Tracey were talking, Fire team Alpha approached the Slytherin house table, Harry walked up to the table and had his team move to open spaces around the table. Harry approached the two young women and proceeded to take his helmet and body armor off, setting it behind him, "Excuse me for interrupting ladies, but I see you're speaking to each other. Would you mind moving down just a bit so I don't sit between you and stop your conversation for the rest of dinner?" Both Tracey and Daphne turn behind them and take in Harry's features, his vivid green eyes are what catches their attention. Daphne breaks eye contact first and moves down closing the gap between Tracey and herself giving Harry just enough room to sit down beside her.
Right as Harry and the rest of his fire team sit down, a nasally voice perks up. " Wait till my father hears about them allowing these mudbloods and blood traitors to sit at this table." A pompous looking blonde boy sneers at Harry and his fire team. Everyone sitting near the members of Alpha ignores the boy wanting to learn about them. When the only ones who give him any type of acknowledgement are his two book ends and a fairly average looking witch sitting across from him, he just glares at the nearest member of the fire team.
The other three fireteams have no trouble at their assigned tables, each table the people ask the fireteams about themselves but they only reveal the bare minimum of information. As the night draws closer to its end the students all start heading to their common rooms, or in the case of the visiting school their accommodations. The First and Second Squad of the MACUSA Mage Division grab their gear and wait in the entrance hall waiting for Dumbledore to show them where they are staying.

3rd floor hallway In Hogwarts
October 12 1997
The members of fire teams Bravo, Charlie and Delta are getting ready to perform PT. Alpha is gearing up to patrol the school until 0930 hours, at which point they will come back to the accommodations set up by the school for them to change for PT and then come back and shower. The four fire teams walk down the stairs to the ground floor with Alpha Breaking off and splitting up into three groups. Harry and Lcpl Geo Lopez walk from the entry hall up to the astronomy tower. As Harry and Geo walk up the stairs to the tower they share their thoughts on the school so far. "Hey Cpl Gibbs, so what did you think of that blonde babe you sat next to last night?" Geo said as they rounded the corner on the last flight of stairs to the top of the tower. Harry thinks for a minute, "First of all LCpl how many times do i have to tell you, it's just Harry when we are just patrolling in pairs or with just the fire team. Second, she definitely is very beautiful but I would have to talk to her more to see if she is as arrogant as that boy last night that reminded me of a ferret. And don't think i didn't see you checking out her friend, you were way too obvious man." He finishes his statement right as he clears the last step and neither young man notices two blonde girls sitting in a spot that gives them the best view for the sunrise.
The two young marines walk the circumference of the tower before they stand at the railing as the sun starts to rise, bathing the black lake and forbidden forest in a beautiful sunrise.

Daphne and Tracey wake up and dress in warmer clothing so they can get to the astronomy tower and watch the sunrise. This is the last time they will be able to enjoy it before the security at the school is tightened to get the students used to it before the triwizard tournament starts. As Daphne and Tracey start sneaking their way up to the Astronomy tower they start talking about the events that transpired the night before.
Tracey breaking the silence asks her friend," So what did you think of the young man that sat next to you last night? I mean it seemed like he kept stealing glances at you." Daphne stops dead and looks at her friend. "What are you talking about Tracey, you had the guy sitting across from us looking at you for most of the night, and I don't know I barely talked to the guy. All those people give off an aura of danger." Daphne and Tracey continue walking to the Astronomy tower, and as they sit in a spot they found in their third year, they hear talking and the sound of the boots they heard last night in the great hall walking up the stairs to the tower. They hear the distinct voice of the young man that sat next to them last night and the voice of one of the other MACUSA military members.
As the two young men walk the circumference of the tower checking the tower for any security risks, they finish their patrol of the tower and walk to stand at the railing right beneath the two young ladies, the young men stood there for about 5 minutes watching the sunrise before the young man with vivid bright green eyes pulled out a device that tracey and Daphne had never seen before. "Patrol team 1 Astronomy tower is clear, proceeding to the next way point." Capt Carter in the command post picks up his portable, "TOC copies transmission Patrol 1 move to the next way point which is the library hallway, teams 2 and 3 are moving to their next waypoint as well." As the young men leave Daphne and Tracey were thinking about what they heard from the two.

Great Hall
October 12 1997
Fireteam Alpha met the other three fireteams at the entry hall where they formed up and marched into the great hall, each fireteam went to the assigned tables they sat at last night. Since they had places to store their body armor and long guns, the soldiers and marines were only walking around with only their wands and sidearms strapped to their thighs. As Alpha moved to sit at the Slytherin table a young blonde man with the mentality of a spoiled boy stood up, "And just what do you think you are doing? I'm Draco Malfoy and I don't remember giving you permission to sit at this table." Harry and the fire team look at the pompous blonde boy and proceed to start laughing before Harry walks up to him, "I don't recall being told I need your permission to sit here, this is a Hogwarts house table not your family's dinner table. So do us both a favor and sit your pompous ass down before I march you to your Headmaster and head of house and let them deal with you."
Malfoy's face goes paler by the minute as he listens to Harry talk, "Do you not know who I am? I am the son of Lucias Malfoy, heir to the ancient house of Malfoy. Respect your better, you mudblood." Harry looks at Sgt Becker and Capt Carter who give him slight nods to use this as an example, "Really Heir Malfoy, I am Cpl Harrison Potter-Gibs of the MACUSA Mage Division. You picked the wrong person to get all uppity with, because it seems you forgot we have carte blanche to ensure the safety and security of this school, her students and the visiting guests from the mainland. This is the last warning you will receive. I am not a first gen wizard Heir Malfoy, My biological father was a pureblood and my mother was a first gen witch. My adoptive parents where I get the last name Gibbs from my adoptive parents both of whom are first gen witch and wizard respectively. They are the greatest people you'll ever meet. '' At Harry going off on Draco the great hall got so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Draco seemed to realize just who he was talking to, he sat down between his bookends. Harry sat in the same seat as last night and put a light breakfast on his plate.
A/N: And I am going to end this chapter right here. So I realize some people may lame saying "it's too quick". But i am just setting the groundwork for the relationships. It's not going to be one minute, they know nothing about each other and next the oc and Harry are in relationships with Daphne and tracey. It's going to progress slowly and build over the course of the months. Please review with any critiques of the story
