Still own nothing.
Peter got up and groaned, he was actually being shipped off to a magical boarding school, so that he could learn magic spells and protect a kid that had some sort of task to do. He really hated the lords of magic right now. He tossed in the last of his books and then the last few bits of clothes into his trunk. He watched as the twins tossed in their cauldrons and a number of potion supplies and pranking items that were scattered around the room into their own trunks.
Peter made to pick his trunk up when the twins stopped him and levitated the trunk into the air. Grinning Peter jumped on top of his trunk and rode it down like he was surfing. Grinning the twins followed his example, and the three of them rode their trunks down the stairs. They all ended up in a pile though when they slammed into Ginny and the four of them were scattered on the floor. They all ignored the screeching from Mrs. Weasley and Mrs. Black's portrait about them being either traitors or for doing something so foolish.
Peter looked up to see Kitty and Mad-Eye once more giving each other dangerous warning looks, and making veiled threats at each other. Getting up he grimaced a bit, as he still had some sore spots from where he had been slammed around last night. Though he hated to admit it, it had been fun to cut loose a bit and use some of his powers to near their full extent and fight. He wondered if he would be able to get his hands onto a Boggart at school, or if he could find a way to get one. 'The Goblins might be able to help him on that one.' He thought as he considered his options.
"Are you two ever going to get along?" He asked carefully, as he eyed the two of them. He really didn't want to get between them, but he had already opened his mouth.
The two eyed each other carefully thinking what he asked. "Maybe," Kitty said crossing her arms. "Depends on whether or not your 'guardian' here ever gets it through his head that he's not the scariest good guy around, and that he is far from the best."
"Depends on whether or not this girl can stop antagonizing me." Moody growled in annoyance, as he returned the glare being sent at him.
"Sorry Moody but your not the scariest we've ever seen. Although you might make it in the top fifty, and your not the best at what you do. Kitty was trained by the best, and what he does ain't pretty." Kitty smirked for a moment before Peter rounded on her. "And Kitty, stop annoying the guy. He has no idea what you're capable of, but you don't know what all he's capable of either. And yes I know that is half the fun." Peter said, cutting her off before she could say anything. "I think it would be a good idea if you both got out of each others personal space before you decide to take each other out. We're supposed to be friends remember? I'd say the same side, but since Moody here doesn't think we can be trusted I'll have to go with supposedly friends for now."
"Fine." Kitty said angrily. "Just get this magical wannabe rip off of Cable away from me before I decide to take him on."
"Lad you don't want to get involved in this mess, besides you got."
"Not a whole lot left to live for?" Peter questioned the grizzled old man. "I have a few allies and friends here and there, but that's about it. Like I told Mrs. Weasley I have seen war, and know what its like so don't go and preach to me the dangers of war till you've at least survived the Secret War. Dumbledore your wizard hero wasn't there, but I was, as were a number of Kitty's teachers."
"So tell me about this war then." Moody growled.
"Only some of the worlds mightiest warriors were taken to fight some of the world's worst villains, yet none of you wizards were even there to fight for the world on either side. You know what that means to me? You guys are not even worth the effort to deal with."
"Well, maybe we just managed to be smart enough or powerful enough to stay away from that sort of thing." Moody countered back at his charge.
"You honestly think you're more powerful than the Beyonder?" Peter smiled at this. "Oh now that is amusing. Are you hearing this Kitty?"
"Yes," Kitty said grinning at the old man, "and its only because I know who the Beyonder is that I can keep myself from laughing in his face. I mean seriously, he is very deluded if he thinks that there was any wizard that had even a micrometer's chance in even standing up to him."
"Next thing you know he's going to say that wandless magic isn't possible."
"Its not." Moody growled. "Except for the most powerful and well trained. A person has to have a strong mind to do any powerful wandless magic."
"Please, Illyana was good at it, but she was not the most mentally organized of people." Kitty shot at him, amusement and sadness danced in the girls eyes as she mentioned her former friend.
"Come on, back to your corners now." One of the twins said. "We have better things to do than for you two to mess with Moody's head."
"Ah you guys just want to hurry up and leave so you can cause havoc at the school." Peter said, smirking at the red heads.
"Of course, what other reason would I have for wanting to go to school?" The red head asked in mock confusion.
They were interrupted as Mrs. Weasley began complaining to the transformed Sirus Black. "You're going to thank me for this later big guy." Peter said, as he pulled something out of his trunk and threw it at Padfoot. The item burst open and covered the dog.
"How did you make it not hit anyone else?" Remus asked, as he tried to dust non-existent stuff off
"I added a slight shield charm that works in reverse, and I added a gravity charm." Peter explained to the curious werewolf. "Makes it so that your target is the one who gets hit and gets the full benefit from whatever it is you hit him with."
"And what did you do to Padfoot?"
"Well, since I read that you can't just change and animagus fur, I merely added some bleach." Peter said innocently, while Hermione and Kitty snickered they all looked at the black dog who was now speckled in white spots. "Of course, if you want to get tchnical I merely added Cl2(aq) + H2O(l) H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + HClO(aq)."
"I see." The confused wizard said, as the equation that Peter had just shot off had totally confused him.
"And to think, none of us even saw him going gray till it was to late." Peter said with a smirk.
The dog glowered at him but didn't do anything other than sulk past Molly Weasley who seemed slightly mollified over the sudden slight change in color, the twins seemed to be impressed but were eyeing Peter with hungry looks.
"You better tell them how you managed that combination before they prank it out of you." Ginny said warningly, before she walked off. Peter grinned weakly at the twins, as they all headed out the door.
They arrived at the train station in twenty minutes, and had five minutes to make it to the platform. The group rushed ahead and looked warily as they prepared to charge through the barrier that was in the wall.
"Kitty! Peter!"
The two turned to look as Brian, Meagan and Rhane stepped out of the crowded terminal. "Hey guys." Peter said, as he shook hands with Brian, while Kitty gave the other two hugs.
"Peter get away from them you fool! You don't know who those people are!" Moody hissed, as he stomped over to them in annoyance.
"Actually I do know who they are, and I've mentioned them to you before." Peter shot back at the paranoid old man. "Mad-Eye Moody may I introduce you to Lord Brian Braddock, my friend that I've mentioned several times remember? Next to him is his girlfriend Meggan, and the girl with a death grip on Kitty is Rhane."
"So yer the ones that Peter met with over the holidays." Moody growled, as he looked the group over curiously. He pushed his porter cap up to look the group over, and was surprised when not a single one of them blinked instead they seemed more interested than anything else as they saw his electric blue eye.
"We are some of the people yes." Brian returned before he turned back to his friend. "Here Peter." The man said as he reached into his jacket and handed him some papers. "This is some information about the whole 'dog star' thing that you told me about. At the rate things are going though it's going to take some time to deal with it though."
Peter nodded as he skimmed over the papers. "Red tape?" He asked scowling at the papers.
"Red tape." Brian agreed with the teen. "This is one of the biggest messes that I've seen in a while, but I think that I can deal with it. I just need to take a bit more time than I originally thought, but if it all works out he'll be allowed to have a trial. Other than that I can't promise anything. The Prime Minister seems to have taken quiet and interest in this case though now that I've put several questions up to him."
"The Prime Minister has no say in these sorts of things lad." Moody growled at the big man.
"On the contrary," Brian returned, "as you are British citizens that makes you by default subject to the laws of Britain. After some of my talks the Prime Minister has been considering allowing a special team of lawmakers go through all of the Ministry of Magic and seeing to it that the laws of Britain are being upheld correctly."
"You have no idea what you're getting into." Moody argued back at him. "Leave these things to us."
"We have, and look where you're at." Brian returned, this comment made Moody bristle in indignation. He gave Peter a slap on the back that nearly sent him flying. "Be sure that you owl us, or whatever when you get the chance Pete. Logan, Matt and Xavier are all interested in how you do. Logan and Xavier are particularly interested in how you do young lady." Brian said, as he turned to Kitty. "Do try and not destroy any buildings all right?" He told the two who gave sheepish grins. The two of them were both well known for leaving large amounts of damage wherever they fought.
"All right." They chorused while the wizards listened in shock.
"Oh, that reminds me." Brian said, as he took out a handful of letters. "Matt forwarded all of Johnny's letters to me, here you go. The school sent you a few letters to." He said as he handed another pile to Kitty."
"Thanks Brian, but we gotta go now." Kitty said, as she eagerly snatched the pile out of his hands.
"To right, well maybe we'll see you over the Hols talk with your uncle about that. Mr. Moody." Brian said, offering his hand out. Moody grudgingly took the hand then grabbed Peter by the shoulder and steered him toward a wall. Brian turned to Kitty as she gave them all one last hug and promised to write.
"Before you go we have someone who insists on coming with you." Brian said, as he handed her a duffel bag.
Kitty grinned sheepishly as she looked inside at the small purple figure in there that let out a hiss of annoyance. "Hey baby, sleep for now when we get to the castle I'll get you." She promised, she then gave everyone another hug and disappeared through a wall.
"Not very sociable these secret wizards are they?" Rhane asked, as her eyes watched where the wizards had disappeared with her friend.
"No they are not." Nightcrawler said, as he teleported next to the group, Pioter then stepped down from the security station that he had been using.
Pete Wisdom the newest member of the team strode casually around the corner and eyed the wall where the group had disappeared. "So that's where the bosses got the wall from." The man in his rumpled suit commented, as he took a drag from his cigarette. "At least you finally got rid o that sodding flying rat."
"Herr Wisdom, you better pray to god that Kitty never hears you call Lockheed that, or you'll be extremely sorry."
"I think I can handle an irate chit who doesn't like what I call her bloody dragon."
"It is your funeral then comrade."
"Whatever. I need to go and get me a drink now that we're done with all this happy team stuff that you made me get up at 10 O'clock in the sodding morning for."
"Sometimes I wonder about you Wisdom." Brian said, shaking his head as they all quietly left.
Peter watched Kitty as she let out a weak grin after seeing her 'family'. After everything that had happened in the last few days he wouldn't have blamed the girl for wanting to walk away from this magical world. A part of him wouldn't have minded, but he did have other things to worry about like helping the mystical world find balance. He shook his head wryly, when the heck had he become a Dr. Steven Strange junior?
"So mate, you want to tell us how you did that trick from earlier now?" One of the twins asked, as they watched Sirus chase after the train.
Peter chuckled at them. "Maybe some other time, I think Kitty and I need to go and find the rest of the people we'll be having classes with, it might pay to know a few of them. Who knows what house that we'll be sorted into, for all we know we could be Slytherians."
"Of course we would demand a resort after that, unless you want to tell us how they sort people." Kitty said slyly.
"Why of course, they make you wrestle a troll."
"Of course, that's only for first years."
"And seeing how your fifth years."
"They might make you wrestle a giant."
"Nah, they'll make you fight vampires."
"Please not that." Kitty said shuddering. "I do not want to get under the thrall of another vampire any time soon."
"Not to mention vampires refuse to stay dead."
"Actually they do stay dead, just not still. Then of course there's the ones like Morbius.
"Who's that?"
"I'll show you his picture later." Peter said.
"That reminds us, you ought to get along a bit with Collin Creevey."
"He's always taking pictures,"
"And you said you enjoy it to."
"Who knows, maybe I can help the amateur out." Peter said shrugging.
"Amateur? I highly doubt that's our dear Collin." Fred defended his fellow Gryffindor.
"When was the last time he was paid for his pictures then?" Peter asked smugly as he arched his eyebrow at the two.
"Um Fred?"
"No idea George."
"American Muggles pay me for my shots a lot, and I'm only sixteen." Peter said smirking at the two of them. "And I don't have to rely on the pictures to be moving to impress people either." The two then turned and chased after Harry and the others.
Peter and Kitty followed after Harry and Ginny, they quickly made their way past compartment after compartment. The two heroes wondered what was wrong with Harry he had looked at Ron almost longingly before he seemed to mechanically follow after the youngest of the Weasley clan. They passed car after car and the four of them couldn't help but notice the murmuring and staring that Harry was receiving. Other then a thinning of his lips and an even more lost look of resignation on his face Harry didn't respond to this. As they reached the end of the train, a slightly overweight boy named Neville, joined them. The round blonde boy was struggling with his trunk though, and Peter felt a twinge of sympathy for him. He stopped the boy from pulling for a moment and cast a lighting charm to help him haul his stuff. Peter was beginning to wonder if maybe he and Kitty should have accepted the twins invitation when Ginny pushed her way into a compartment with a sole occupant despite the protests of Neville.
Harry, Peter and Neville quickly stowed the trunks, despite Kitty's insistence that she was perfectly capable of doing it herself.
Peter turned to regard the girl that they had barged in on, she had blonde hair and the typical Hogwarts clothes on, she wore her wand behind her ear, radish earrings and a necklace with butterbeer caps on it, she also had a magazine that she had been reading upside down called the Quibbler. None of that was off, it was something in the way that she looked at him though that let Peter think that she might be a bit off. Her eyes while observant had an odd glint to them that made one wonder if she was really registering them at all.
They all sat in the awkward silence for a moment before an uncomfortable Ginny finally decided to open some conversation with the blonde. "Had a good summer Luna?"
"Yes," the girl said dreamily, as she focused as much as she could on Harry. "Yes, it was quiet enjoyable, you know. Your Harry Potter." She added, as if she had just now realized the identity of the green-eyed teen sitting across from her.
"I know I am." Harry replied with a straight face.
Neville, Kitty and Peter all snickered at the obviously rehearsed answer that Harry had given. The dark haired teen obviously was content with staying in the shadows by doing that. Luna turned her pale blue eyes on the three others.
"I don't know any of you." She replied calmly.
Neville turned red and glanced down at his feet. "I'm nobody." The boy muttered.
"No your not." Ginny said sharply, jumping into the conversation. "Neville Longbottom- Luna Lovegood. Luna's in my year except a Ravenclaw."
"Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure." Luna said in a singsong voice.
"The Ravenclaw motto." Peter said nodding to the girl who blinked in surprise, but nodded in agreement. "I'm Peter Parker, and the one next to me is Kitty Pryde."
"Hi," Kitty said, as she shook hands with the girl.
"A pleasure." The girl said.
"With great power comes great responsibility." Peter said, looking the Ravenclaw in the eyes who nodded before sitting back down now that introductions were done.
The girl hid herself behind her magazine, and Peter and Kitty each drew out a book while the three Gryffindors shared bewildered looks.
The two Gryffindor boys began talking, and soon Neville pulled out an ugly looking plant. Peter looked at it for a moment when he heard how rare it was, and thought that it looked vaguely familiar. 'Like something that he had seen on one of his misadventures.' He thought, it probably was something he had seen while in Thor's dimension. Still though, he almost missed the warning signal that his spidey sense were giving him as he ducked at the last moment when Neville poked the plant and smelly gray goop flew out of the plant. At that moment a pretty girl came in, and Harry stuttered at her. Peter rolled his eyes and was glad when Ginny cleaned the mess up, though he did notice that the smell hadn't quiet left the compartment. He shared a quick glance with a chuckling Kitty, he was pretty sure she had avoided the stuff as well thank god for the powers they had thanks to science.
"Well, now that that's over with how about we open a window?" Peter asked. Harry nodded, and quickly shoved the nearby window open they all let out slightly relieved sighs as the smell started to leave the compartment. "So Neville my boy, instead of trying to drown us in various things like that stink sap, think that you can tell us what else it is that your plant can do?" Peter encouraged the boy, hoping that he wouldn't try and shut himself down after the embarrassment of the plant's attack to their prodding.
"Are you sure?" The boy asked uncertainly, but there was a hopeful gleam in his eyes as he asked.
"Sure am, you got a book that talks about it? And as far as the stink sap goes I bet if you could find a more effective way to milk it the Weasley twins might buy some from you. Of course I think that you ought to make sure that they get the experience that we all just experienced it might be a good for them to get covered like that."
"Y-you mean prank the twins?" Neville paled at this thought.
"Why not? If you'd like I can help you with that." Peter said a grin coming to his face, as he considered the idea of catching the twins unaware.
Ginny nodded in approval. "I think it would be a good test of your plant, depending on how long it takes it to grow its stink sap back."
"And just imagine the rep you'll get for getting the twins with something like that." Kitty added with an evil grin. The mutant girl had not quiet forgiven the twins when they had broken into her trunk and messed with her old blue uniform. The twins still had bruises from where she had beat the crap out of them, and once Molly Weasley had realized that it was because her sons had pranked some clothes that held sentimental value to Kitty the woman had not only turned back to what she was doing in the kitchen, but had only partly healed their injuries saying this was the lesson that they were going to get for going through a woman's clothes. The other Weasley children had spent the rest of the day commenting on the fact they looked a little blue, and that there was no safety in their numbers.
"I'll think about it." The boy mumbled to the others. The arrival of the snack cart interrupted them, and they all chipped in what they could to pay for the horde of snacks. Harry and Neville each slipped a couple of coins toward Ginny when they thought no one was looking. The red head smiled at both of them Harry merely returned to watching the countryside while Neville's face turned a nice shade of red.
"So you're a Longbottom huh?" Peter said, as he recalled that this was probably Augustus Longbottom's grandson. If he grew up with that woman he might be on the quiet side to.
"Yeah." The boy said warily, but with a defensive challenging edge as well.
"You aware that we're cousin's?"
"Really?" The boy asked with surprise.
"Yeah, I'm the legal charge of Mad-Eye Moody. My Aunt May was a squib, and since Aunt May died Moody is next in line to be responsible for me. I met Moody and your grandmother when they came to collect me at Aunt May's funeral in New York. Since I met them one thing after another seems to be happening."
"Oh yeah, I heard gram's talking about you to my, or maybe its our great uncle Algie." Neville screwed his eyes up in thought as he tried to think it out before he shrugged it off. "Yeah, great uncle Algie said it was a shame that we probably wouldn't meet you unless you came over for the holidays." He looked hopefully at his newly found cousin.
"We'll have to see. I already have an invite from several friends. And I'm not sure if I want to deal with a large bit of family right now, after all of mine died, but I will be more than happy to get to know you."
"Really?" The boy said happily.
"Really." Peter promised offering his hand, which the boy took enthusiastically.
"So what house are you in?"
"Don't know we'll have to wait and see." Peter said shrugging. "Whatever the test I think I can handle it."
"It's not that bad." Neville said with a simple smile. Peter nodded he doubted it was anything to bad, but it would be good to go ahead and get it over with already.
There was nothing new of interest to happen till Ron and Hermione showed up. Hermione began explaining the basics of the prefects and who they were while Ron cracked jokes about what he would do with the power. The jokes looked like they would start another argument between the two, but Luna began making a few comments that displaced Ron enough to satisfy Hermione. Ron then made some comment about another student and while Hermione glared at him over it though she did laugh, Luna fell into hysterics at it. While Luna fought to regain control at the weak joke Harry skimmed the magazine the girl had been holding. After a few moments Hermione insulted the magazine only to find out that the girl's father was the editor. The bushy haired girl stuttered a few moments but the girl merely snatched her magazine back and hid behind it.
Peter was about to make some sort of remark on Hermione insulting the person that was actually there first despite the fact that they had now invaded her compartment, and that she should probably take some lessons in not being so judgmental unless she was prepared for multiple times of having to deal with having her foot caught in her mouth. He was about to say something when a blonde forced his way into the doorway of their compartment.
Peter looked up at the blonde, he was a pale skinned teen, about an inch or two taller than Harry, though he looked shorter than he did since he was standing between a pair of what looked like cross breeds between Rhino and Kingpin only they had more muscle showing than Fisk did. The boy was smirking and polished his badge with one hand as he stared with contempt at the people inside, though he did eye Peter and Kitty questioningly before he began to taunt Harry. Peter chuckled as Harry made a decent comeback at the guy.
"And what are you laughing at?" The boy said, drawing himself up.
'Probably thinks that he looks intimidating.' Peter mused to himself.
Peter and Kitty snorted in amusement. "Is that supposed to actually impress us you think Peter?" Kitty asked.
"Not sure Kitty. Hey Harry, who's the albino full of hot air? I swear it's amazing that he doesn't break that plaster top of hair that he's got with as much posturing as he's doing." At this everyone broke into a new wave of laughter, though Hermione was obviously trying to control herself.
Still chuckling Harry made the introductions. "Peter Parker, may I introduce you to Draco Malfoy and his loyal lapdogs Crabbe and Goyle all of the pure blood Slytherian house of course."
"Well we know what happens when inbreeding happens now." Kitty said musingly. Hermione and Peter snorted at this, while most of the others just stared at her in confusion.
"Parker?" Malfoy said, "any relation to the Tobias Parker?"
"Fraid not platinum top. I'm Muggle born, though my great uncle is a wizard."
"Then you have some pure blood in you, even if it is somewhat tainted."
"Hardly Dragon boy," Kitty said, "his Aunt's cousin is the wizard, and she married into the family. I don't think there is any blood connection really, but legally."
"Yeah that's true all I have is the connection of cousins." Peter returned, "though why my powers were bound through her I wouldn't mind knowing."
"Your powers were bound?" Draco asked in shock.
"Yeah, but that doesn't matter I'm used to thinking my way out of problems anyways, and from the looks of those two apes at your sides your stuck with idiots."
"I will not be talked to that way mudblood."
"Oh wow, real original wouldn't you say?" Peter asked rolling his eyes at the blonde.
"Besides didn't he just explain that he was related to Moody and the Longbottom's?" Kitty asked, while rolling her eyes at the blonde. The two heroes wondered how the whole pureblood system worked, and if this would appease the idiot.
"And who's this? Another of your mudblood lackey's Potter?"
Kitty stood up and glared at the blonde the cocky grin faded from his face, as she stared at him. "I am no one's lackey you inbred idiot, as for you and your wannabe toughs get them out of my face before I have to hurt them and then maybe you."
"Ha." The boy said trying to cover up the fear that this girl was putting in him. "Crabbe, Goyle that sounds like a challenge to me. Take her down." The boys lumbered forward at the command.
"Oh wow, they respond to verbal commands." Kitty mocked, as the two lumbered toward her.
Neville looked in shock as none of the others made a move to help the girl, in fact they were actually smirking. The boy brought his wand up, and would have used it except Kitty exploded into action. She kicked one of the thugs in the gut knocking him back then her hand did a palm strike breaking the other thug's nose, she then performed a roundhouse kick that tossed the two purebloods out of the room and into Malfoy who couldn't dodge the two flying figures and ended up at the bottom. "Be careful who you insult, you albino boy." Kitty said sweetly, as she began shutting the door.
"You and your lot better watch themselves Potter I'll be dogging your steps from here on out!" Malfoy hollered as the door finally slid shut.
"Yeah whatever." Kitty said indifferently as she finished securing the door shut. She turned back and exchanged worried glance with Peter who shrugged, he didn't seem to worried except in his eyes, which were already set in deep thought. Kitty looked and saw that Hermione and Harry were also exchanging worried looks though Harry did have a look of guilt added into them. The four all shared knowing looks that were traced with concern before they all put up their own type of emotional masks, and buried their noses in books or turned to the windows.
Peter drummed his hands impatiently on his knee as he sat as still as possible glaring at Kitty who was sitting calmly in the lotus position and meditating. Peter shifted a couple of times before he returned to glaring at Kitty. Kitty opened her eyes and sent a small smirk his, way she knew that the New York wall crawler had trouble sitting still, but this was crazy, she was wondering if his hyper activity was a byproduct of his abilities, or if he had always been this impatient. Peter sighed as he stared at the book that was lying in his lap, with the sun getting weaker what little reading time they were going to have was slipping away, add onto the fact that he had been stuck inside the same small area for the past several hours that he was becoming more and more impatient and wished that he hadn't bothered going to sleep the night before and that he had instead slipped out and done some patrolling like he had longed to do. Instead he had been forced to endure this boring as hell train ride wide awake, and only one single fight last night, true that fight had left him sore that morning but he had shrugged off that last bit of pain around one o'clock and was back to being a hundred percent. Kitty shook her head and smiled before she nodded toward the door, Peter nodded and followed after his friend. The two of them walked down the hallway Kitty barely able to hold on to her smirk, as they walked on till they finally found a compartment that was temporarily abandoned. Not hesitating Kitty phased herself up through the roof, and Peter swung himself through the window and the two laughed as they joined each other on the roof.
"I was wondering how long it was going to take you to loose control of being stuck inside of a room like that even with Hermione and me to give you intelligent conversation." Kitty mocked.
"Awe c'mon," Peter said, "it's not my fault that I have all this extra energy." He made his point by doing a triple flip in the air. "My powers just give me an insane amount of energy, and I haven't had a real chance to burn off a lot of it. No offense to your workouts, but neither of us have been able to go full out in several days."
"That's because everywhere we turn we find another pair of eyes watching us." Kitty pointed out as she did the splits.
"True." Peter said as he landed from another flip on one hand, and then pushed back into the air to land on his feet.
"Of course there's no one watching us right now," Kitty added with a grin, "and as long as we stayed to the roof."
Peter kicked himself into a back flip, his foot brushing the side of Kitty's face. "Tag." He shouted at her with a cocky grin.
"Oh you are so dead." Kitty growled, as she made a jump at him and landed about a car away from him. "Damn super spider jumping." She grumbled, while Peter just chuckled. Kitty ran the rest of the way toward him and threw a nasty right cross that Peter let fly over his shoulder then returned the favor by trying to knock her feet out from under her. Kitty nimbly jumped over that attempt and managed to kick him in the shoulder. "You're it." She said grinning. Peter did a double handspring and sent both of his feet at her midsection. Kitty grinned as he fell right through her; she turned around only to find that he had disappeared into the darkness. Kitty groaned, she had forgotten that as Spiderman, Peter could disappear into the shadows just as well and fast as Logan or Nightcrawler could. The only good thing right now was that there were a limited number of hiding places that Peter could use if he didn't want to chance another student seeing him. She walked forward and cautiously looked between to cars to find nothing there. She furrowed her brow as she tried to think where he might have disappeared to, when something hit her in the back and tangle up in her hair. Turning around she saw a smirking Peter as he waved at her, while she groaned, she had just been hit with a web glob.
"You're it alley cat." He drawled at her.
"You're dead wall crawler!" The mutant growled angrily. "Do you know how long it takes to get this stuff out of your hair?"
"About an hour." Peter returned.
"More like two weeks web head." Kitty snarled, as she leapt at him and pinned him to the ground. "That webbing of yours may dissolve in an hour, but the powder remain that it leaves behind stay in your hair any where from three days to two weeks!
"Er sorry." Peter said before he flipped her off him, and knocked her back a few steps.
"Sorry! Is that all you have to say?" The teen asked as she knocked the air out of the vigilante.
"What more do you want me to do about it?" Peter asked, as he sidestepped another angry swipe.
Kitty glared at him dangerously. "A promise that you won't do that to me again unless you have no choice."
"Peter swallowed as he saw the glare that she was pointing at him and quickly nodded in agreement.
"Good, now we need to head back down cause the castle is up ahead and I'd hate to try explain why we were up here." Peter nodded in silent agreement, and the two slipped in between a compartment and made their way to their compartment and found the others putting the finishing touches on their uniforms.
"Where have you two been?" Hermione asked them. "We're almost there, and you two look like you've been running up and down the halls with the twins."
"Nah, we just had to much pent up energy." Kitty said, as she snagged her robes, looking at the schoolgirl uniform with disgust before she snagged it up and headed for a bathroom to change. Peter grabbed his own stuff and headed the opposite direction.
"Guess the guys of Hogwarts are going to be in for a bit of a disappointment eh mate?" Ron asked Harry, as he looked at the retreating figures.
"Ronald you can be extremely insensitive. I doubt that's what they meant when they said that they had to much energy you know very well that Peter and Kitty are just friends, and Peter just lost his family I doubt that he's looking for a girlfriend right now."
Ron scratched the side of his face. "I don't know Hermione, nothing like a girl to comfort you while you're in deep emotional pain to make you forget about your problems, and you can't deny that Kitty has a body that certainly turns heads. There aren't any girls in Hogwarts that come close to looking like that."
"You forgot that she uses her brains probably more than you and I combined Ron." Harry added with a warning in his voice, but making sure there was a bit more room between them than before. He was trying to stop his best friend from shoving his leg down his throat, but didn't want to get caught in the crossfire either. Talking like that around your female best friend, your little sister and a girl you know little about just didn't seem like the smartest of ideas to him. Neville was also backing away from the redhead leaving Ron sitting right in the middle of a triangle of girls.
"Oh yes, please do go on Ron." Ginny said with an artic tinge to it. The other two Gryffindor males winced at this, though they kept silent at the death glare that Hermione shot both of them.
"Sure Gin," Ron said oblivious to the danger he was in, "I'm just saying that none of the girls in school look as good as she does, and she's only about a year older than us. Only Angelina Johnson's body gives her any competition.
And you know this how? Hermione asked frostily.
"Easy," Ron said shrugging, "every Gryffindor has eyes and she prefers muggles clothes. Its no wonder that Parker there is attracted to her, he'd have to be bloody mental to not be." The teen reached over and picked up one of the last chocolate frogs and ripped open the package just as he was about to bite into the treat he was hit with a bat boogey from Ginny and a full body bind by Hermione followed up by the bats being transfigured into spiders.
Who did the spiders? Harry asked curiously.
"I did." Angelina said from the doorway, as she glared at the youngest Weasley brother. "I ever find out your checking me out like that again you little pervert I'll cast an Enlargement Charm on them first." She hissed so menacingly, that Harry was tempted to ask her when she had become a parseltounge. The Chaser then stalked off while Ron whimpered.
Adding to insult to his injury a dunce hat appeared over Ron's head. "That dear brother is for your stupid move." Fred said with a smirk.
"And a warning Ronnikins." George said with a deadly smirk of his own, the only difference was that the twins didn't have the usual mischievousness in their eyes that they usually had. "You ever insult one of our teammates again and not even Harry will be able to protect you from us." The twins then went after their friend and teammate.
"All right there mate?" Harry asked after leaving him there for a minute. The red head whimpered an acknowledgment. "Good, lets see if I can get these off you." Harry said, and began waving his wand and muttering the counters to the spells, the only one he left was the dunce hat and merely enforced that one. As much he hated to do that he hoped that it would get the message through his friends head to watch his mouth next time. Hermione and Ginny nodded in acceptance and had raised their eyes at the sticking charm that Harry had added at the last minute before he freed his friend.
"Anyway for only Gryffs to see his headgear Mione?" He asked quietly, so his friend didn't here him.
"Yes." The girl said reluctantly in understanding, she picked her wand back up but stopped when Harry raised his hand t stop her.
"Can first years see it? You know they won't respect him as much if they see it. Can you make it second year and up only see it?"
Hermione nodded, and then waved her wand at the hat, which glowed blue for a moment changed into a regular Wizard hat, before returning to a dunce hat.
"What did you do?"
"You got off lightly, be glad this is all you have to deal with." Harry said, as he got back up leaving his friend in the floor.
"Neat trick." Peter said, as he and Kitty leaned against the wall in the hall. "What'd he do?"
"Trust me, you don't want to know." Harry said, before they could press the issue the train ground to a halt. "Lets go." Harry said, "Ron go with Mione and try and behave.
"All right mate." Ron said as he adjusted his Prefect's Badge before following Hermione out of the compartment. The others were left to collect the various animals.
Harry sighed, hopefully this would teach Ron to talk without thinking for a while. Peter and Kitty forced their way in and checked on Wolvie.
"So where do we go?"
"Good question, lets check with Hagrid, he ought t know." Harry said with a smile on his face as he picked up Hedwig's cage
"Fine." Peter said, as he slung the Cage over his shoulder, Kitty grabbed Lockheed's duffle bag, Luna grabbed Pig's cage, and Ginny was left to deal with Crookshanks.
Give me a sign you like what I got!
