Professor Pomona Sprout, head of Hufflepuff house at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and professor of Herbology nodded to the slightly overweight man with the large mustache and made her way to the elevator to see the father of Harry Ozpin. She never knew that there was a landmass between the United Kingdom and the American states. She wondered why wizards never talked about it, or wrote about it in the Prophet.
So when she came out of the elevator, she looked around. She saw two adults standing there, waiting for her. Putting on her best smile, she made her way to the male behind the desk. He was obviously a man of status and probably Professor Ozpin himself. She observed him as she walked to his desk. Grey hair and brown eyes that were half hidden behind a pair of small glasses. A scarf, made of a dark green color was wrapped loosely around him with a small cross in the middle of it.
A green shirt under a black vest showed and gave Pomona Sprout the image that this man was a very strong opponent.
Looking at the other adult, Pomona couldn't shake the feeling that Minerva had some long lost relative that could look just as serious as her. Shaking her head. Pomona touched one of the chairs that was in front of the desk when she saw someone sitting in it and looking at her.
It was just then, that Pomona thought back at that first class of Gryffindor and Slytherin in 1991, where she would look down at James Potter. Her eyes lit up in surprise, and as she looked from his emerald eyes, that looked so like Lily´s eyes, to his forehead and spotted the fading lightning shaped scar, she couldn't´t help but yell.
"Harry James Potter, what are you doing here?
"That's Harry Ozpin to you, Ma'am" Said Harry as he looked at the dirty face that looked in shock and surprise at him. Taking a deep breath, Harry got out of the chair he had been sitting in and gently placed the newcomer in the vacated chair. She definitely needed to sit down as it seemed that her brain had been undergone a hard restart. Harry looked at his father and Ozpin shook his head. Harry sat down again in one of the empty chairs that was facing the desk.
"Before we begin," Ozpin said as Pomona Sprout seemed to return to the land of the living. "I'd like to welcome you to Beacon Academy, where we train the best huntsmen and huntresses in all of Remnant. I am Professor Ozpin, headmaster of Beacon Academy and this here," waving his hand to Glynda, "Is Glynda Goodwitch, my deputy-headmistress and chief combat instructor. Who may you be?"
"Huh? Oh Sorry. I am Professor Pomona Sprout of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and head of Hufflepuff house. I am here to answer any questions concerning Harry's placement at Hogwarts."
"Let me ask you this, Professor. Why should I allow Harry, and by extend Ginny, to attend your school, while we are still suffering from the after effects that your ancestors did to our ancestors?"
Professor Sprout looked at Ozpin with a shock. "Believe me when I say, Professor, That I have no Idea what you are talking about. What did our ancestors did to yours?"
"Harry, Ginny. Go outside for a moment, We'll call you on your scroll when we need you."
Harry and Ginny nodded, before they left the office. Standing in the elevator, they could hear Professor Sprout asking about Ginny, before she yelled again. "GINNY WEASLEY?"
"Guess your secret identity is out to." Said Harry as the elevator moved downwards. "I guess, but I know nothing of that life."
"Yeah" Harry said as a heavy silence hung in the elevator before it reached the ground floor.
"Hey Ginny, let's train some more. I think that if we go to this Hogwarts place, we won't be able to train as much as we want to." Said Harry. Ginny nodded and followed Harry to one of the docks, where they each grabbed their weapon. Harry reached back and pulled his battle rifle from his sash and folded it out to it's Guna dao form. Watching Ginny as she removed her weapon from her belt, Harry smiled as the red haired girl unfolded her submachine gun into a saber. Ginny then waved her left arm and two halves that were on her arm folded together to form a shield.
"You ready, Ginny?" Harry asked. "After all, this will be a Child's Play."
Ginny smiled back. "Hope you're ready for a Hell's Date."
Both Ginny and Harry charged, their weapons clashing with each other. Harry's longer pole like weapon gave him range, but he needed to hold it with two hands. Ginny's weapon was shorter, but gave her room to maneuver and to avoid Harry's attacks. All in all, They were evenly matched.
The battle went on for 30 minutes, before both Harry and Ginny had each other at their mercy. Harry's weapon pointed at Ginny's throat, while Ginny's weapon pointed to Harry's manhood. "Tie?" Ginny asked, as she adjusted pressure slightly to Harry's balls. "Tie" Harry said as he to adjusted slight pressure to Ginny's neck.
"Good workout, you two." A voice said and both Harry and Ginny looked to see Professor Port standing there, looking pleased. "A very nice show that demonstrated tenacity, skill and grace. For your next time Harry, try to avoid to use two hands on Child's Play. It will give your more room to move. And Ginny, Don't use your left arm only for defense. A hit from a shield can stun your opponent, creating an opening that can get you a victory. Now put down your weapons and follow me to Professor Ozpin's office."
Harry and Ginny folded their weapons back into their gun forms before placing it on their resting spots and followed the professor of Grimm studies to the elevator that took them to Ozpin's office. Riding the slow elevator up again, Harry and Ginny walked out of the elevator, to see Professor Ozpin, Professor Goodwitch, Pomona Sprout and an elderly man with robes that had many stars sparkling, with a large red bird sitting on his shoulder.
"Harry Potter, we meet at last" the old man said, and as Harry looked better, he could see that the man was really old. A grey beard that reached his middle, white hair that surrounded his face and blue sparkling eyes that shone with an inner power behind half moon spectacles.
"The name is Ozpin, Harry Ozpin." Harry said as he took a stance that showed his weapons and slightly muscular body.
"Now, now. Let's all be friends here." Said Ozpin as he stood from behind his desk. Having seen that stance one before, Ozpin knew what Harry was capable off.
"Fine dad." Harry said as he relaxed and took a chair that was as far away as possible from the old man. ""Who are you?" Harry asked as he looked at the old man.
"I am Albus Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry" Said Dumbledore as he looked at Harry and the girl next to him. She looked like a Weasley, with her freckles and red hair, and those eyes that looked just like Molly Weasley.
"And is that something to say to us? We never heard of Hogwarts before, and you may not notice it, but we aren't very fond of wizards here" said Ginny as she looked at Dumbledore.
Dumbledore looked at Ginny and Harry. "Hogwarts is a school for students who have the ability to control the power of magic. We teach our students how to make objects vanish, changing shape and teach you about the wizarding world of Great Britain. Hogwarts is one of the best schools in the entire world for magical study." Dumbledore told them both, and pulled his wand out of his robes. With a swish and flick, the chair where Harry and Ginny were sitting in together slowly lifted and both children looked down and on the side, their faces filled with wonder.
It was decided that Harry and Ginny would go with Professor Oobleck and Sprout to this place called Diagon Alley, while Professor Dumbledore and Ozpin started to hammer out details about huntsman training, holidays, transportation and visiting rights. The most important item to discuss was the placement of Ginny. Harry had flat-out refused to go to Hogwarts if Ginny wasn't allowed to come as well. In Harry's own words it was that: "Either Ginny comes with me and learns at Hogwarts, or I will join her year when she goes next year."
After many tries of letting Harry and Ginny see reason, Dumbledore allowed Ginny's placement at Hogwarts a year in advance.
Now Harry and Ginny sat with their escort, Professor Oobleck and Professor Sprout in a Bullhead as they flew over the ocean that separated the Kingdom of Vale with the Kingdom of Mistral. The Bullhead was piloted by an automatic system that flew several times a day between Vale and Mistral. During the flight over the ocean, nothing out of the ordinary happened, except for the two professors who talked to each other. Sprout was very interested in the history, and Oobleck was all to pleased to give it to her, in his own rapid speech. Harry and Ginny ignored the history lessons as they cleaned their weapons that they had taken with them.
Suddenly a holographic image of a young lady with a flight uniform appeared between Oobleck and Sprout.
"Pardon the intrusion, but we are receiving a call for aid from team BRSS from Haven Academy. They are under attack from some form of humanoid zombies."
Oobleck, who had dressed as he always did when he went on missions turned to the image. "Divert the ship to assist aid. Harry, Ginny. Hope you are ready" Said Oobleck as he ignored Sprout.
Harry's face showed the largest smile he had ever given someone. "Do you really need to ask?" Harry asked as he loaded Child's play. Ginny smiled as she released Hell's date from her belt and loaded it before nodding.
"You can't be serious?" Pomona Sprout yelled as she looked at the three who were gearing up for battle.
"We are. I am a huntsman, and it is my sworn duty to protect this world from the forces that conspire against it." Oobleck said as the doors opened and showed a battlefield with hundreds of mutilated human bodies that seemed to walk on their own.
"Inferi" Sprout gasped as she saw the human bodies. A blast was heard by her as she saw Harry taking shots. "Harry, Ginny. Please don't do it." Sprout pleaded. "We need to" Ginny said in a serious tone. There was no smile on her face, only determination. Sprout nodded.
"I know, but don't like it." She said. "Their main weakness is fire and decapitation. Please be careful."
"We will" Harry said as he extended his weapon to it's Guan Dao form before he jumped out of the Bullhead, followed by Ginny and Oobleck.
Harry shot through the sky like a bullet. He had jumped out of ships before during training, but now was the time to show his skill in the real life battle. The battlefield was littered with bodies from the Inferi and to Harry's shock and disgust saw some humans and Faunus fighting to get the Inferi of them. Harry, now close enough to react, blasted his weapon blade-first into a head of an Inferious being and used his forward momentum to use the Inferious as a hammer, smashing several Inferi away as he created a small shock wave. Creating a small opening, Harry cut through the hands and legs of the Inferi around him, saving the life of a Faunus girl who had been trapped by the monstrous beings.
The Faunus girl, a girl with wolf ears looked up as she saw a young boy beating back the monsters she and her team had been fighting. "Get up" The boy shouted as he decapitated another monster. She slowly got up and picked up her bag before she looked again. Rage filled her as she saw the young boy and a young girl fighting what must have been thirty monsters. She clicked and swung her bag before it transformed into a large flamethrower.
"Get down" She shouted as she started to throw flames with it.
Harry saw what was going on as the girl pointed the flamethrower at them. Surrounded by Inferi, Ginny and Harry used their weapons to get out of the way. Harry used his weapon's long pole to jump away, and Ginny used her secondary weapon, Piercing Jack to jump away just as the first flames washed over them.
Ginny landed and used her shield to blast the ground clear of Inferi. Seeing the flames from the Faunus girl, Ginny directed the heat coming from the flames towards the Inferi and within seconds they started to catch flame. Using her semblance, Ginny waved it more before she fell back to support Harry. Changing her saber back into the submachine gun, Ginny provided cover for Harry to get out of the group of monsters that had surrounded him.
Professor Sprout was watching with fear in her eyes as Harry and Ginny willingly risked their lives to save those they never met, all because it was a code that they had sworn to. Then she saw Oobleck moving with such a speed that it was almost to fast to follow, his thermos extended to form a club with the tip aflame. Moving with such speed, Oobleck managed to set a large number of Inferi on fire, killing them.
Then Sprout saw several other Bullheads appearing, with more people joining in the fight. What she saw next was unbelievable. Within minutes the entire battlefield was Inferi free, and the Bullheads were loaded up again, before they took off. The Bullhead she was on, loaded more people than before and flew towards what appeared to be a school. Landing at one of the docks, Professor Sprout watched as staff members gently carried those who needed to be carried out of the Bullhead. Seeing Harry waving at a girl with wolf ears and a wolfs tail, Pomona pulled Harry to the back of the Bullhead. "Harry, who and what was that?" She asked.
Harry smiled. "The what is a Wolf faunas, the who is Scarlett Lavender. She was on team BRSS that we saved."
"And what is a faunus?" Pomona asked again. "Nothing more than an human with animal traits" responded Harry. He then nodded to the professor and sat down in one of the chairs and started to clean his weapon, next to Ginny who was doing the same. Oobleck was talking to someone on his scroll, and thus Pomona Sprout was left alone.
She was left alone until Oobleck started to talk about a reward for Harry and Ginny for saving several students from the Inferi. Harry and Ginny both shrugged and finished cleaning their weapons, before they placed then in their respective holsters. The Bullhead was flying towards the the end of land, where a platform was waiting for them with four people waiting for them.
Harry recognized the old man from his father's office. It seemed that Dumbledore had a way of getting around pretty quick. A younger female was waiting for them as well, and Harry could see that she was about the same age as Professor Sprout. Feeling the Bullhead landing, Professor Sprout exited with a bit of a run. It seemed that she didn't like being in the Bullheads. Harry gently stepped out of the flying contraptions and held his hand to let Ginny exit as well. Suddenly, Ginny was engulfed by a red haired woman who seemed to be a bit on the heavier side, according to Harry. Ginny's reaction was that she tried to draw her weapon, but was unable to do it, as the woman had Ginny in such a tight grip that she barely could breathe, let alone move.
"Oh Ginny my baby. Mommy's here." The lady said before she yelled in frights as she felt herself burning up. Releasing Ginny, she looked at her hands to see blisters, yet the only blister was very small.
"Never do that again" Said Ginny as she pointed her weapon at the lady who had called her 'her mother'. "I don't know who you are, but my mother is Glynda Goodwitch." Ginny said with a rather angry face.
Harry gently lowered her weapon with a hand. "Calm down Ginny. There must be a very good explanation for this." Harry said as he looked at Dumbledore. The old man nodded rapidly and he started to introduce the persons around the platform.
"To my right is Professor McGonagall, she is the deputy-headmistress of Hogwarts, head of Gryffindor house and Transfigurations Professor. You already have met Professor Sprout, who has taken the time to escort you for your schoolbooks. This young man," Here Dumbledore pointed to a rather handsome man with red hair and a rather well build figure, "Is Bill Weasley on behalf of Gringotts wizarding bank. He is here to take us all to Gringotts as soon as possible. And lastly, we have Molly Weasley, birth mother of both Bill and Ginny here"
Ginny looked at Molly, and Molly looked back. Then Ginny looked at Bill, and Bill looked back at her. Ginny turned her head to Harry. "What do you think?" Ginny asked with an uncertain voice that Harry had heard only once, when Ginny was three years old. It was that moment when Glynda and Ozpin had decided that it would be best if the two children would come to Beacon with them, instead of Ozpin and Glynda traveling from home to work and leaving them in Ozpin's house in the city of Vale.
"Ginny. This is your birth family. I promise, that I will always be around to help you. You know that my only family is Ozpin and aunt Glynda. You have so much to see with them." Ginny looked up and down several times, as she thought about the possibilities.
"How about visiting rights?" Oobleck asked, as he stepped forward. Ginny nodded shyly. "Is that okay with you, Mrs. Weasley?" Ginny asked
Molly smiled thinly. She would have preferred is Ginny would come back to her family, but this would be a first step.
"Very well, How about you come home with me, I'm sure that the others can take care of your friends." Molly said as she made a move to grab Ginny and to apparate away. What Molly found was two children pointing weapons to her and the adult, who had suggested was pointing his extended thermos to her chin, from which she could feel a lot of heat coming.
"Mum. The goblins want to see them both. Something about going to Hogwarts together" Bill said as he stepped between his mother and the trio of weapons carrying people.
"Hogwarts, but Ginny is not even ten. She's to young to go" Molly shouted as she turned around to Dumbledore. "Why didn't you tell me so?" She screamed as a fishwife. Dumbledore barely flinched. He had expected such a reaction from Molly Weasley.
"Because, you apparated as soon as you heard that Ginny would be coming back to Britain. I had no way to tell you about the arrangement that Miss Weasley," Here Ginny and Harry looked pointedly at Dumbledore. "Ah, excuse me. Miss Goodwitch is here because Mr. Ozpin is here for his Hogwarts education. Mr. Ozpin is a native British citizen and was born Harry James Potter."
Pandemonium reigned supreme as every magical from British soil started to yell and jump around like a chicken without a head. Harry just shook his head and led Ginny and Professor Oobleck to Bill who seemed to be the most collected.
"So. How are we going to these goblins?" Harry asked as he looked in Bill's face.
