Disclaimer: Evil Me: This is mine I tell you!
Good Me: Don't tell lies, it's not nice.
Evil Me: I'm not lying.
Good Me: Yes you are, because if you were telling the truth, you would be rich.
Evil: I...am rich in knowledge...
Good: If you don't start telling the truth, I'm going to make you stop (whispers something)
Evil: Not that! These aren't mine! They belong to their respective owners and I just like messing with them! Don't make me... (trails off)
Just another attempt at humor. If it's bad, tell, cause I'll get rid of it.
CHAPTER TWO: THE TRAIN
The four stared at the wall that they were supposedly supposed to walk through.
"Hey, Hakkai," asked Goku, "are you going to walk through that wall?"
"No. How about Gojyo?"
"Hell no."
Sanzo snarled in irritation. "Someone has to go through, and it sure as hell ain't going to be me. So one of you three better make a decision."
"Goku…" Hakkai and Gojyo asked together, "Why don't you go?"
"No, no, no, no, no," Goku started panicking. "Why doesn't the kappa go through?"
They fell into a vicious three way argument that continued on for several minutes, making Sanzo wish he still had his gun on him. He'd have to find one later on, although he wasn't sure who would be stupid enough; but with enough money, he was sure he'd be able to get his hands on one.
Finally another group on wizards showed up, and curiously stared at the quartet. Hermione Granger and her parents had just walked up, followed closely behind by Neville Longbottom.
"Are you four new first years?" Hermione asked, "I don't remember seeing you last year."
The quartet looked at each other, before Sanzo answered, "Last year we were… unreachable. We are starting this year, as second years."
Hermione nodded, than frowned. "Is that allowed?"
Hakkai shrugged. "I guess. We were allowed too."
Hermione thought for a moment and nodded. "I guess so than. Do you need help getting onto the platform?"
They looked at each other sheepishly. Goku answered. "Yah. I mean, I just can't believe we can just walked through walls."
"Not that stranger things haven't happened." Gojyo muttered.
Hermione tilted her head in confusion, overhearing only the words stranger and happened, and wondered what had sparked that comment. "Well, you can come with me." She offered.
Gojyo looked over and grinned. "I would love to, m'lady." At this Hakkai jabbed Gojyo in the side and hissed,
"She's twelve."
Gojyo looked over and shrugged. "So what? Here I'm twelve too."
"It's still wrong." Hakkai retorted. "Sanzo, you can't let him do this."
Sanzo signed again. "Fine, baka, let me make this clear. If I find out you've messed with any of these students, you will meet with a world of pain that will make you wish that you had never been born."
Gojyo straightened up when he heard the cold voice issuing from the monk. "But!" he started to protest.
"You heard me. If you prefer, I could always start now…" Sanzo trailed off thinking. Gojyo, seeing the look on his friends face, quickly reassured the man.
"Oh no, never crossed my mind, got to catch the train, don't want to be left behind."
Gojyo made a beeline for the wall, which he passed easily through, and waited on the other side, staring open mouthed at the train. Sanzo, Hakkai, and Goku followed more leisurely, Goku jumping in excitement.
"Do you see it, Sanzo? I wanna ride it, are we gonna ride it?"
Sanzo bonked Goku in the head, despite their similar heights. "Urusai, Bakazaru, of course we are riding the train. How did you think we were gonna get there, walk?"
"But Sanzo, no one ever said we were gonna ride a train. I wanna get seats, can I, can I?" he begged.
Hermione walked over to the exchange, "Do you want to sit with Neville and I? I was going to seat with a couple of my friends, but they didn't show up."
The quartet looked at each other, and then answered, "It would be our pleasure."
…
On the train, the company found themselves in a roomy compartment, that was a lot nicer than a lot of the places they had spent a night or two. Goku was thrilled that he was allowed to ride the train, because he hadn't really before. Most of the time, they walked or rode in Jeep, and to be honest, Goku had always wanted to ride a train.
He looked over at Hermione, who appeared to be engrossed in her book. Looking at Neville, revealed that he had a strange toad with him, that, to be honest, he didn't really want to know about, and since Sanzo was sleeping, while Hakkai was studying some of the texts for this year, it left only Gojyo to play with.
"Hey Gojyo, do you want to do something with me?" he asked, tugging on the red-hairs shirt, "Can we do something? I'm bored."
"Go away, damn Bakazaru, I'm sleeping." Gojyo told him in annoyance.
Goku made a couple more half hearted attempts at waking the stupid pervert, but nothing was going to pull Gojyo from his sleep. He shrugged, and decided that he might as well explore.
Leaving the compartment, he wandered down the mostly empty hallways, where he ran into identical red-heads.
"Hey, who are you?" one of them asked cheerfully, "I'm George Weasly, and this is…"
"…Fred Weasly at your service. Are you a first year? Because…"
"…We don't remember seeing you last year."
Goku had a little trouble keeping track of who was saying what, but he knew what they meant. "I'm Son Goku. I'm a Second Year student, but will be starting this year."
"How did that happen?" Fred asked curiously.
Goku sighed dramatically. "Um… we were traveling and were unavailable at the time."
"Traveling? Really? Why were you traveling…"
"…and what do you mean we?"
"Um…" Goku hesitated. Sanzo hadn't told him where their cover story said they were at the time. Luckily, he was saved, when Malfoy, backed by Crabbe and Goyle, came up to taunt the twins.
"Oh, look, it's the Weasly's. I'm surprised that you were able to come to school again. Is your brother not here because you couldn't afford him?"
The twins and leapt to cast a hex on Malfoy, when something suddenly flashed out past their faces to land with a sickening thud on the Slytherins nose. Even the two bodyguards weren't able to stop it. Malfoy let out a high pitch scream, and Goku laughed at the sound.
"Geeze," he said, "You scream louder than a girl. It's only a broken nose."
The twins looked at the sight, Malfoy, on his knees with blood pouring from his nose like a faucet as he threatened to tell his father. It was quite a funny sight, and of course being the twins that they are, they couldn't help but make it worse.
They laughed out loud.
Malfoy stormed off, screaming about what his father would do when he found out, and Crabbe and Goyle followed him loyally.
"Well, that was interesting." Said George.
"Very interesting. Tell us, young Goku,"
"How exactly did you strike Malfoy?"
Goku looked at the older teens in confusion. "I punched him he answered straight forwardly.
"That was a punch?" Fred remarked.
"I didn't even see it…" continued George.
"How do you think he'd play Qudditch?"
"He could give Harry a run for his money…"
The twins trailed off. "Speaking of Harry…" Fred spoke up suddenly,
"Where is he?"
The Weasly's were about to ask Goku if he had seen their friends, when the announcement came through that the train was approaching Hogwarts. Sanzo had gone looking for Goku when he woke up to realize that he had gone missing, and had approached while the twins were wondering about Harry.
"Goku," Sanzo said, "You have to come with me now."
Goku looked at Sanzo pleadingly. "Please, can I talk a little more? Please, pretty please?"
Sanzo refused to give in, saying "No."
Goku gave up and said goodbye to the twins, following Sanzo back to their compartments to change.
The twins watched them leave.
"That was a little strange." George commented.
"It was indeed." Fred agreed.
"I guess they'll fit right in." George replied.
And the train pulled in to Hogwarts.
A/N: I know this might seem a bit rushed in the end, I just wasn't really sure where I wanted to go with the train scene. After all, they haven't even met Harry yet. Next chapter, our friends are going to arrive at Hogwarts and be sorted, as well as meeting the Boy-Who-Lived (You already know what's happening with him).
I'm going to try and get a new chapter out every week by the way. However, it is getting into testing and such, so I won't guarantee it. But if I miss more than, say two weeks between updates or something, I'll either put out a long chapter, or a couple, so don't worry about that.
Please REVIEW! Feel free to share ideas, comments, concerns, dislikes, anything! Just make sure to explain your reasons if it's negative feedback, so I can either explain it, or change it.
Sorry this was so long, I don't like long A/N either, but it just has to get out there. See you next time!
