Here's the first group for my new hero group for my fanfiction series. Hope you like it.
In the Harry Potter universe, a short time after Voldemort's death, Harry wandered back into the DA's hideout. There, Harry Potter himself walked around, thinking about the people who were lost throughout his years and adventures at Hogwarts, friends and family all. Suddenly, he heard the door creaking open. He drew his wand and turned, only to see some of his best friends: Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Ginny Weasley, Luna Lovegood, Cho Chang, Seamus Finnigan, Dean Thomas, George Weasley, Angelina Johnson and the Patil twins, Parvati and Padma.
All of them were very happy and still in a wee bit shock seeing him alive. They saw him dead in Rubeus Hagrid's arms, thought to have been killed by Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest. Hermione, being the closest best friend to Harry, next to Ron of course, ran up to her best friend and embraced him in a big hug. Tears slid down her cheek as she hugged her best friend tightly. Ron and Ginny joined in on the hug and the rest soon followed.
They exited the castle, making their way onto the bridge. They just spent hours talking and laughing. Harry glanced around at all of his friends. He saw Ron and Hermione holding hands, noting that they were a couple now. Luna was leaning her head on Neville and George and Angelina were talking. Harry turned right to see Ginny and Cho talking. Harry thought they were talking about him, knowing that Cho was his ex-girlfriend and since then he had growing feelings for Ginny. After they finished talking, Ginny and Cho hugged each other, implying they were now friends.
They turned to Harry, who got up and walked towards them. Ginny and Cho looked at each other, smiled and nodded. Cho then walked to Harry. "She'll be a far better girlfriend than I was." She said. Harry smiled. "And you'll always be my friend." Cho gave him a peck on the cheek and left to join the others. Ginny then walked up to Harry. "I take it you and Cho are friends now?" Harry asked. Ginny giggled. "Yeah. We worked out our issues. So, it's a start." She said. They both blushed. "May I ask you something?" Harry asked. Ginny nodded. "Before I left for the Room of Requirement after our kiss, you said 'I know' like you knew what I was going to say. What did you think I was going to say?" Harry asked. "I thought that you were going to say that you love me." Ginny replied. "Was that true?" Harry reached out and took her hands. "It is. I do love you Ginny. More than anything." He said. Ginny felt like crying. "I love you too." She said right back. They both smiled, leaned forth and kissed. The others looked on, happy at this sight. Cho smiled, knowing that Harry was happy. Ron felt a pit in his stomach from seeing his best friend and little sister kissing, but knew it was bound to happen and was happy either way.
Unfortunately, their moment was interrupted. A portal appeared in front of the group. "Wands out, everyone." Harry ordered. The group drew their wands and prepared for whatever was about to come. But what came out was some weird looking man. He wore a lab coat with a scarf, had a metal gauntlet on his right hand and wielded a cane. "Oh, am I in the right universe?" The man asked. Ron dropped his wand and fainted out of shock. "That's a yes." As Hermione and Ginny looked over Ron, Harry stepped forth pointing his wand at the man. "Who are you?" He asked. "My true name was lost beyond many realities, but you may call me Professor Paradox." The man said, introducing himself. Harry and his friends just stared at him. "How did he apparate like that?" Dean asked, breaking the silence. "Not apparation, Mr. Thomas. Interdimensional portal." Paradox explained. "He's from another universe." Neville said in realization.
The others looked at him. "Another universe?" Seamus asked. "Well, I've read about how there have been recent studies that our universe isn't the only universe. Writings of the existence of a multiverse." Neville explained. "Young Mr. Longbottom is correct." Paradox agreed. "I come from a universe unlike your own. And I have come because I need your help, Mr. Potter." Harry lowered his wand. "I'm listening." He said. "This may come as an impossible surprise for you, but your arch enemy, Lord Voldemort, has returned once again." Paradox said. Everybody gasped. "How is this possible? I watched Voldemort die right in front of me. His body turned to ash." Harry said. "I know. But, a small speck of the ash from his body was able to reform itself in the Forbidden Forest just as the morning rose from the last battle." Paradox explained. Harry could not believe his ears. "And worse. He's discovered the ways of interdimensional travel and now he's set his sights on conquering the universes in the entire multiverse. He's already recruited 3 other villains from other universes to his new army."
Paradox held up his gauntlet and opened a hologram of El Jefe. "This is the first villain to join him: El Jefe. He's a Siberian tiger from the Sly Cooper universe, one of the many universes completely inhabited by animals. He used to be a high-ranking mercenary commander who also worked as a cigar roller in a South American prison." He explained. "All animal universes? And you guys say I'm looney." Luna said.
The hologram switched to Slurhk. That made Ron shuddered. "Who or what is that thing?" He asked. "That is Slurhk. He was the second to join." Paradox explained. "He's from the Chaotic universe. It's a universe where people play a special game called Chaotic. On their Earth, the game works as a card game or online card game. The cards in the game are divided into 4 different decks: Creature, Battlegear, Mugic and Location. Also, there is a third way to play the game." Paradox continued. The group looked on with interest. "Allow me to explain." The hologram switched to a PDA device of sorts. "This is called a Chaotic scanner. It's a device that can port you a special place that also goes by the name Chaotic." The hologram showed a floating field loaded with several different buildings. "And through the middle building you see there, you can transport to an ancient land called Perim. There, you can use the scanner to scan one of each card deck at a time. The main key to playing Chaotic is the creatures. Each creature is divided into 6 different tribes: Overworlders, Underworlders, Mipedians, Daniens, Tribless and M'arillians. Slurhk is part of the Overworlders. The Overworlders are normally the heroes of Perim, but Slurhk has a very evil personality. I'll tell you more later." Paradox finished.
The hologram switched to Witty Phantom. "This is the final member: Witty Phantom." Ron snickered. "Don't let the name or his nice suit fool you. He's a very dangerous monster in his universe. He's from the Yu-Gi-Oh universe. It's a card playing universe. Not like Chaotic." Paradox explained. "For long ago, when the pyramids were still young, Egyptian kings played a game of great and terrible power. They did battle with magic and monsters. But these Shadow Games, as they were called, erupted into a war that threatened to destroy the entire world. Until a brave and powerful Pharaoh locked the dark magic away. Imprisoning it within the mystical Millennium items. 5000 years later, a boy named Yugi unlocked the secret of the Millennium Puzzle. He was infused with magical energy, for destiny chose him to defend the world from the return of the Shadow Games. Just as the great Pharaoh did 5000 years ago." Paradox finished.
Everyone was impressed on all these backstories as Paradox deactivated the hologram projector. "But, unfortunately now, the formally known Tom Marvolo Riddle has gathered these evil forces to make his gang, which I call the Cabal, to invade the other universes in the multiverse and conquer it all. Which is why I came for you, Harry Potter." He said, pointing to Harry. "Why me?" Harry asked. "Because you know more about this fiend more than anyone in this universe. I need you to help a group of heroes I've put together to stop Voldemort and his Cabal before all in the multiverse is nothing but a shroud of darkness." Paradox explained. Harry thought about it, then turned to his friends. "Alright, I'll join. But my friends are coming with me." He said. "If not for their help, I wouldn't have defeated Voldemort at all." Hermione stepped up next to him. "Yeah. We're not just his friends. We're his family." She said as the others joined them.
Paradox smiled. "You lot remind me of a young hero and his friends from my dimension." He said. "Very well, you're all now a part of a great big cause to save the multiverse. Step through here so that you may meet your new teammates." He waved his cane and opened another portal. As Paradox stepped through, Harry walked up to it and turned to his friends. "See you all on the other side." He said and walked into the portal. The rest of his friends soon followed.
Well, that's Harry's story on the beginning of his new quest. Who else from which universes will join Harry and his friends on their quest to stop Voldemort and his Cabal? Look for the next recruits in the next chapter. Leave a review if you'd like.
