Chapter 1
It had been a while-a month-since Allen had been turned back into his 11-year old body, thanks to the Ark's backfire. It had also been a while since he met Albus Dumbledore, the Headmaster of Hogwarts, he had also learnt that his innocence arm had become normal, and that his innocence changed into magic from within. He had a little talk with Crown Clown and had been given an explanation that his innocence changed to suit the current world. He obviously had to give an explanation to Dumbledore about his world and how he got there.
While on the topic of explanations, he had been given explanations for the current world he was in and magic.
It was long and tiring at first, but they managed to get through it; with surprise that Neah actually managed to keep his patience during the whole ordeal.
It was a day before school started and Allen was currently in Diagon Alley. He stared in wonder at all the shops.
He saw children with eyes wide as saucers and faces pressed against the display window of the shop: Broomstix
He gave a sigh and put on a small smile, which attracted the many attentions from the female population; which Allen remained oblivious to.
He decided he'd get his books first and then he made his way to 'Flourish and Blotts'. How he made his way, was thanks to his older brother that lived in his head.
LINE BREAK
Harry was still a bit furious about the boy he'd met back at Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions. Hagrid let out a sigh before he trudged Harry to another shop. The sign had said: 'Flourish and Blotts'
He stepped in and then he started to look for the books needed. As he walked to find a certain book, he had bumped into someone as he turned to another shelf. Not expecting it, they both toppled to the ground. The boy he'd bumped into stood up and dusted himself off before he held out his hand to him. Harry looked up with a thanks and took the hand offered to him.
"Sorry about that, I didn't mean to bump into you." The other apologised. Harry shook his head with a small smile. The other smiled as well, and Harry had to admit, it was a pretty good smile (No, it's not yaoi. No. -_-).
"Pleasure to meet you, Allen Walker." The now dubbed 'Allen' introduced himself with a bow. At first, Harry looked confused but then mentally shook it off.
"Harry Potter." He simply said. He was surprised to see Allen just nod. It wasn't Harry's fault. I bet you'd get a little bit shocked to see someone not react dramatically over your name when the people you met previously did.
'Finally! A normal person!' Harry thought. But, oh how wrong he was. The two chatted for a while as they looked for books. Once they found them, they paid and stepped outside.
"Hi Hagrid!" Harry greeted, more cheerful than the last time he had stepped out a shop. "Hi Harry! Who ya got there?" Hagrid inquired merrily. He was glad to see Harry more cheerful and he guessed he'd have to thank the strange haired boy.
"Allen Walker, pleasure to meet you." Allen took his cap off and levelled it with his chest and then bowed gracefully. He got back to standing properly and with a smile, he re-adjusted his cap.
"No need to be formal! I'm Rubeus Hagrid, nice ta meet ya!" Hagrid grinned.
"Well then, sadly, I cannot join you because I am in a rush. I'm sure you have plenty to do. See you soon Harry!" Allen tipped his hat in farewell before he waved as Harry did and then adios.
"Polite." Was all Hagrid said before they left to Ollivander's Wand Shop.
LINE BREAK
It had been a while and Allen had finally got all the items he needed, except his wand. He was pretty sad that he couldn't join Harry, but Allen needed to change into his Noah form so badly! He needed to change for at least a minute and then go back into his human form. No matter how much he enjoyed and felt more free in his Noah form, he had to be in his human form to not cause heart attacks.
He made his way to a shop with a sign that said:
Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands since 382 B.C.
The letters were coloured gold but was peeling. He entered and then he looked around. Soon a small, old man came up to him. They introduced themselves and the wand finding began.
After a while they had finally found the wand suitable for the still smiling Allen.
"11", aspen wood with a two cores; a phoenix feather and a thestral tail hair. Very powerful and must be used wisely." Ollivander explained with a serious expression.
Allen's eyes twinkled with wonder at his wand. It was close to white and it had shallow-but visible-carvings of a stave starting from the middle of the wand and then circled the entire wand up.
He gave it a gentle swish and an opaque white gushed out of the tip of the wand and twirled around the room gracefully. Allen swore he saw something silver like a mask. It enveloped him and it felt like Crown Clown. He closed his eyes and relaxed with a small smile on his serene face.
Ollivander smiled as well as he watched how connected the wand and the boy was. He knew for sure that this time, nothing would go wrong like you-know-who.
"Otouto-kun, we need to get going. You can play around with the stick later." Neah dead-panned.
"Whatever." Allen bluntly said before he chuckled inwardly.
"Thank you. Um, do you, by chance, have anything to hold the wand?" Allen asked. Ollivander nodded and then came back quickly as soon as he had left.
Allen payed and then left. He headed to a quiet place before he summoned the ark with a hum of a C note. He stepped through and vanished.
He reappeared in the shining, quiet and peaceful town. Then he walked to the 14th's secret room and practiced spells in one of his books. He had learnt most of them without much difficulty. Neah congratulated him and everything, so did Crown Clown. He was thankful but they kept telling him to stop thanking the two so much.
They had a great time and they found out that when Allen was in his Noah form or when he let Neah take over, the magic that comes out is an opaque black instead of white. To them, it made perfect sense! So they just shrugged it off.
Allen let Neah take over when he was getting tired. Neah had so much fun playing around with the wand while Allen slept.
The next day came and Allen was so excited. He had got ready and everything, then inhaled his food, then he made it to the train station; London's King's Cross Station
Allen flinched when he read 'Cross'; Neah snickered and Crown Clown sighed.
"9 ¾ …" Allen repeated aloud. He found the brick wall he was looking for and he pushed his cart full of luggage. He ran through like nobody else's business-which it wasn't-and he found himself in another place. He sighed in relief that it wasn't the wrong brick wall. Otherwise, that would've been very…VERY, painful…
LINE BREAK
Allen stared out the window with longing eyes. He could see Neah's reflection behind his own. Neah had his arms around Allen, which made Allen feel safe. Neah would always do this when Allen started to think about the war.
The compartment door swung open. Allen just adjusted his cap before he faced the red-head. "Can I help you?" Allen asked politely. "Can we share?" He inquired. Allen smiled and nodded. He occupied the seat opposite of Allen and let out an exasperated sigh of relief.
"Allen Walker, pleasure to meet you. Now may I know who it is I am sharing this compartment with?" Allen inquired, still in the same polite tone. Ron blinked at Allen's politeness and British-ness.
"Are you British?" Ron curiously inquired. Allen nodded while the other shrugged.
"Ron Weasley. Stop talking like that." Ron said. Allen quirked up an eyebrow and tilted his head to the side. "Stop talking like what?" Allen asked. Allen knew what he meant and he could do it, but, he felt like it would be fun to tease Ron.
"Like that!" Ron exclaimed. "May I ask what you mean?" Allen further teased. Ron grit his teeth and he looked like he was about to rip his hair out in frustration. Allen laughed.
"What's so funny?!" He yelled. Allen put his hands up in surrender. "Just kidding. It was fun to tease you." Allen did his best not to laugh, but failed…miserably. Ron scratched the back of his head furiously but then calmed down after a while.
At that moment the compartment door swung open to reveal: Harry Potter.
Harry and Allen's eyes widened in realisation. Allen grinned and then greeted Harry, "Hey Harry~! Told ya I'd see ya again!"
Harry smiled and then said, "Hi Allen!"
The three started to joke around and then started talking about chocolate and candy as they ate them. Harry had bought so much candy, it was like, a dream come true. Allen knew he had to control his appetite.
LINE BREAK
Allen had fallen asleep and after a few minutes, a pale-blond-haired boy and two others opened the door.
The three looked disgusted by the sight of Ron but enthralled by the sleeping boy. They had never seen a white-haired YOUNG boy before. They turned their attention to Harry.
They had an argument as soon as Malfoy insulted Ron. Soon the three left and then a girl by the name of Hermione came and lectured the two a bit.
LINE BREAK
They rowed the boat with a bit of effort. Soon the first years were gathered in a room, waiting to go through the doors and into the Great Hall.
The children were nervous because of what Ron and a ghost had said about there being a test. Although, Allen just chuckled.
"No need to be nervous, it's nothing complicated I'm sure. They wouldn't make first-years do a test in front of the whole school." Allen assured. The group of first-years relaxed and they stared in awe at Allen's bright smile that seemed to light up the dark room. Soon they moved to the Great Hall and they stared in astonishment at the place.
Their names were called up and they had to sit on a stool. A hat was placed over their heads and they were sorted into one of the four houses; Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff.
After a while, "Walker, Allen." Minerva McGonagall called out. He was one of the last ones, thanks to his last name.
He stepped forward and took his cap off, which revealed most of his snowy white hair, which everyone gasped at. Allen walked forward like that didn't happen. Once he was a meter away, the hat started to hesitate and tremble a little bit; which went unnoticed by most everyone except the Hat, Allen, Ron, Hermione, and Harry, the professors, the ghosts and a few more people.
He sat on the stool and the hat was placed above and everyone noted how it dropped down his eyes and it made him look a bit sinister. Allen, being the musician, could hear their heartbeats and he smirked to tease them. He wondered if he should grin insanely. Being the Noah he is, he did.
It sent shivers down their spines; even the teachers. Allen chuckled before he let his grin retreat, much to the relief of many students and professors.
"I need to access your memories, I ask for your permission." The Sorting Hat said. "Your song was really wonderful, and sure go ahead." Allen smiled inwardly.
"WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY LITTLE BROTHER'S HEAD?!" Neah yelled dramatically.
"Interesting. Do not fret, I am the Sorting Hat, I need to look at your brother's memories to sort him into a house." The Sorting Hat explained calmly with interest sparked in her voice.
The others outside of Allen's mind wondered how long the hat was taking. It had been awhile. What they did not expect was the hat starting to scream.
"AHHH! WHAT IS THIS INSANITY?! MY GOODNESS! POOR BOY! WHAT IS THIS?! GET ME OFF OF THIS HEAD! OFF! OFF!"
Allen swiftly took it off to stop it from screaming and prying into his memories any further. The screaming halted and then it shouted:
"SLYTHERIN!"
The crowd was…well, dumbfounded. I mean, he could've in Hufflepuff, Gryffindor or Ravenclaw. NOT SLYTHERIN! When he first walked in, they thought he was one of those innocent types. Not…Slytherin…
After a few seconds to assimilate what had happened, the Slytherin table cheered stridently. Allen walked over with a smile after he apologised to the Hat, the latter apologised for its outburst.
He settled down and they welcomed him. After a few announcements of the rules, the boundaries and other things happening, the food finally appeared. Allen walked up to Dumbledore and said something, which Dumbledore nodded to. Allen came back and his cup filled with a different liquid…Wine?
"Why do you have wine?" Malfoy asked. "It's a special type of wine, if you don't want to lose your appetite, it is best to let me have this drink." Allen explained politely. Everyone who heard that realised how his voice sounded kind and soft, definitely not Slytherin right there.
Soon they headed to their common rooms. The Slytherins welcomed the new Slytherin first years and they had mini party before they went to sleep.
What surprised them was that Allen had 'body art'.
Soon the next day approached and most of the first years were a nervous wreck.
