Assassins in the Wizarding World.
Chapter Two: Meetings.
Previously in the last chapter.
"I don't know who you are, but where are we?" The blue-hair woman spoked with an icy tone.
Everyone in the hall had one question in their minds: Who are these people?
(In the Present)
Albus Dumbledore didn't know who these people were, but he needed to do something before things get violent.
Clearing his throat, Dumbledore said, "Hello, my name is Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." He could tell that the black-hair woman, the blonde-hair woman and the brown-hair man are friendly, but the blue-hair woman is dangerous. He did not want to earn the wrath of this woman.
"Hogwarts?" The blue-hair woman snorted. "What kind of rubbish name is that? That is a weird and pathetic name for a school."
"How dare a Muggle say that about Hogwarts?!" A man with a neat mustache snarled at the woman. Esdeath looked at him and waved her hand to summoned ice spears above her. Everyone is shocked to see a woman to do wandless magic.
"I do not know what a 'Muggle' is, but I would advised that you shut your mouth before I come over there and kill you." Esdeath stated with a cold voice that made the man with anger vanished with fear replacing it.
Dumbledore moved forward, getting the strange people attention. "I will tell you everything if you would follow me. And please bring your friends. I think that they would want to hear this." He said, hoping the strange people will listen to him and not cause a fight.
The four people looked at each other, nodded before following him. Dumbledore led them and the teachers into a chamber where the four champions are. Stopping in the middle, Dumbledore turned around and began introducing people. "These people are Professors Mcgonagall, Snape, Moody, Karkaroff, Madam Maxime, Barty Crouch, Ludo Bagman."
When the people's names are mentioned, the four people looked at the people.
The first person was an old woman with a wrinkle face and had a stern expression on her face. She was wearing dark green robes with her hair in a tight bun. She was standing next to Dumbledore.
The second person was a man that had Tatsumi, Leone, Akame and Esdeath disliked already. He had greasy, black hair and cold eyes. He was wearing black robes and had a sneer on his face.
The thrid person had Tatsumi, Akame, Leone and Esdeath on edge. He was an old man with grizzly gray hair and had a bunch of scars on his face. A chunk of his nose was missing, and he had one small grey eye, while the other was large and fake. He was wearing a dark jacket with a dark shirt underneath, dark pants and from what Akame, Esdeath, Tatsumi and Leone can see, he had a wooden leg.
The fourth person was a tall, thin man that had black hair with a twisted goatee and cold eyes. He was wearing silver and white robes, and was sneering at them with a nasty look.
The fifth person was a very tall woman that was almost the same height as Bols. She was wearing dark blue robes and was staring down at them with a frown.
The sixth person was the man that snarled at Esdeath a few moments ago.
The seventh person was a round man that had blonde-hair, blue eyes and rosy skin. He was waving happily at the Akame, Leone, Tatsumi and Esdeath, though the round man was staring at Leone's chest.
Esdeath chuckled a bit before saying, "Interesting people, but I think I should introduced me and my friends. My name is Esdeath."
The black-hair girl that was looking at them with narrowed eyes said, "My name is Akame." She didn't know about this people, but if they do something to hurt her friends, she will kill them.
The blonde-hair woman said cheerfully, "My name is Leone and this hunky man next to me is our boyfriend, Tatsumi!" Tatsumi nodded with a small blush on his face.
Dumbledore looked at them with twinkling eyes. 'Ah, young love.' But as much he wanted to learn about them, he needed to tell them about the Tri-Wizard Tournament.
Karkaroff seemed to beaten him as he demanded, "What is the meaning of this!? How can the Goblet of Fire bring four people from out of nowhere!?"
"I want to know as well." Madam Maxime said as she glared at them, though none of them are unfazed by it.
"We came from a different world," Akame explained. "I do not know how we got here, but we want to know, is there anything to help us get back to our home?"
Dumbledore looked thoughtfully for a moment before saying, "I've never experience this before, but rest assured, I will look into my studies to see if there is a way to return you to your home." The Empire people nodded, hoping the headmaster can help them.
When they were talking, Tatsumi was looking around in the room. There were a lot of trophies and pictures that can move! He rubbed his eyes and wondered if he was mistaking it. He was wrong, the pictures are moving. He then noticed that they were four people standing away from the adults.
The first person was a boy about seventeen. He wore deep red robes with fur on his coat. He had a large, curved nose and dark hair. He was standing by the fireplace, wearing a sour look on his face.
The second person was a beautiful girl with silver-blonde hair and blue eyes. She was smiling flirtatious at Tatsumi, who began to feel a bit glazed, but got rid of it. The girl looked surprised, but didn't showed it.
The third person was a handsome boy wearing black robes and a yellow tie. Tatsumi feel like he seemed friendly to talk too.
The final person was a boy that seemed to be fourteen. He was small, scrawny with messy black hair, emerald eyes like Tatsumi's and glasses. Tatsumi noticed a lightning shape scar on his head.
Dumbledore put up a hand to silence the room so he can talk. "I do not know how the Goblet of Fire bring them here, but I'm afraid that one of them has to be a champion for the Tri-Wizard Tournament." Esdeath perked up when he said tournament.
"The Tri-Wizard Tournament is a tournament to do three dangerous tasks. Since there is a binding magical contract, you cannot back out. Miss Esdeath, you would need to pick one of your friends to be a champion and you have to be a judge." Dumbledore explained, making Esdeath seethed in anger. How dare this old man tell her what to do!? No one says no to Esdeath!
Akame looked at Esdeath, who was about to unleash her anger, and whispered, "Esdeath, if we want to go home, we need someone to do these tasks, but who is going to do it?" She did not want to stay in a world with strange people, she wanted to back home where her friends and her little sister are.
Esdeath thought about it for a moment before saying to the people in the room, "Alright, for our champion, it will be Tatsumi." Tatsumi looked at her in surprised before nodding to room.
"And for we are representing, we will represent the Empire, our country. I will join you to be the judges, but I want to teach at your school." Esdeath added with a smile that made Harry and Cedric shivered a bit in fright. They had a feeling that her lessons were not going to be good.
Dumbledore looked surprised when Esdeath wanted to teach at Hogwarts, but he'll talk to her about it in private.
"Before we leave, who are the other champions?" Tatsumi asked. Dumbledore almost forgotten them and introduced Cedric Diggory, Viktor Krum, Fleur Delacour and Harry Potter…wait, Harry Potter?! Dumbledore remembered that before the Empire people came out, Harry's name came out of the Goblet of Fire and he has to do the tasks or lose his magic.
"Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?" Dumbledore asked calmly.
"No, Professor," Harry said, aware that all the people are now looking at him. "and I did not asked an older student to put my name in. I wasn't near the cup at all. Is there anyway I can get out of this?"
"Why?" Esdeath asked Harry, who was starting to feel a bit cold from her. "You were chosen to test your strengths and skills. In tournaments, the strong survives and the weak perished. You cannot back out. If you don't do this and bring honor to yourself, you are a weakling and deserve to die."
Everyone in the room looked at Esdeath with shock looks, though Harry noticed that Leone, Tatsumi and Akame was looking angry at Esdeath, before the red-eye girl looked at Harry, causing him to be a bit scared from seeing the girl's eyes. He had seen red eyes before, and that person was Voldemort.
"Don't listen to her." The red-eye girl said.
"Isn't that a bit harsh, Miss Esdeath?" Dumbledore asked, frowning at Esdeath. Why was she insulting his students about being weaklings? They were not weak, just a bit lazy.
"This boy was chosen to bring honor to himself and his family, yet he wishes to get out of the tournament." Esdeath explained, still looking at Harry. "Weaklings like him should be taken out." She then smiled a bit. "And I bet that his parents would be very disappointed for raising a weak person. Maybe the parents are weak and embarrased for raising a weak son that doesn't bring honor to him."
A pin drop can be heard in the room as Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall looked at Esdeath with anger and horror, before turning to looked at Harry, whose hair was shadowing his eyes and was shaking slightly.
White-hot anger was coursing through Harry as he glared very hatefully at Esdeath. He can take insults from people, but what he can't take was people insulting his parents.
"Aw, is the little boy going to cry?" Esdeath sneered, her blue eyes never leaving Harry. "Are you going to cry to mummy and daddy?"
"Enough, Esdeath!" Leone snapped at the blue-hair woman, who gave Harry one last sneer before looking away. The blonde-hair woman sighed heavily before turning to face the teachers, who were shock at what Harry just said. "I'm so sorry about what Esdeath said."
"Ignore what Esdeath said, Harry." Akame said, walking over to Harry and pat him on the shoulder. But the green-eye spectacle boy didn't felt the pat, he just kept glaring at Esdeath. "Just ignore what she said. You're not weak."
'I'll show her.' Harry thought, as he continued to glare at Esdeath. 'I'll show her that I'm not weak and bring honor to my family.'
Professor McGonagall was shaking in anger, too. She couldn't believe that this woman wants to teach Hogwarts, and she had the nerve to insult her lion and her favorite students. 'Harry isn't weak.' McGonagall thought, narrowing her eyes at the blue-hair woman. 'I can't believe I'm saying this...but I hope that Harry can prove her wrong.'
Harry managed to calm down and turned to Dumbledore. "Professor, is there any truth spell you can use to prove that I'm not lying? I don't want the school to hate me because of this."
Dumbledore smiled and said, "There is one way to prove your innocence. There is a truth potion called Veritaserum." Harry and the Empire looked confused and Dumbledore noticed this. "The potion allows the person to speak the truth. Do you want to use it during dinner tomorrow night?"
Harry nodded, wanting to prove that he did not entered his name in the Goblet of Fire. He looked at the Empire people and they seemed friendly. He knew that Hermione would asked where they came from. When he gets back to the Gryffindor common room, he would tell the Gryffindors that he would be questioned under Veritaserum. He hopes that Cedric tells the same thing to the Hufflepuffs.
But tomorrow, Harry was going to ask Hermione if she can help him with spells. He was going to train to become a better Wizard and show that blue-hair woman that he wasn't a weakling.
The meeting had to came to an end because it was getting late. Ludo Bagman told them about the date of the First Task and the rules about not letting a teacher help them. After that, Harry went to the Gryffindor Tower, while thinking about two things: Who are these people and who put his name in the Goblet of Fire?
The strange people have introduced themselves and now they have to compete in the Tri-Wizard Tournament to get back home. How will Akame, Leone, Tatsumi and Esdeath blend in the Wizarding World? Let's find out in the next chapter.
