Sunday was spent together as a family for the Osments and the Panitierres. Aqua gave everyone the next two weeks off from training due to the wedding and for the couple to focus on their upcoming visit to the Wizarding World which was today. Ryo was drinking his coffee before he would do chores around the house.. Sammy was already gone for school.
Sora was wearing a blue tshirt, a black under armor zip hoodie with his gauntlet arm for his armor., and blue jeans. His sneakers were on his feet. . Kairi was still getting ready and he was buckling Harry in his stroller. He was dressed in a green coat, a black winter hat, baby sweatpants and his sneakers. He is playing with his stuffed grim, "Pafoot"
"Yeah that's Pafoot" said Sora with a smile to his son,
Kairi came into the living room all dressed. She is wearing a blue blouse with a red jacket, Tan jeans and her black combat boots. her pauldron is over her jacket. She had her purse with her as well. "Ready to go?" Asked Kairi.
"All set ... .Dad, We'll be home later" said Sora.
"Alright son. You kids stay safe" said Ryo reading his paper. The family of three went outside to where the Excalibur. A Highwind look alike except it was Blue, White and yellow was docked. "Where's the Golden Highwind?" Asked Kairi.
"Chip and Dale have it at the shop. They wanted to make sure everything was in working condition and they sent me the Excalibur for today." Said Sora. He pulled out the key and he clicked a button. The ramp opened up and the couple and baby boarded.
"Aqua, Terra, Ventus, Vanitas and Riku went on their gliders this morning to secure us a place to park the ship." Sora said,
"What about the Twilight gang?" Asked Kairi. She is making sure Harry is secured in his stroller.
"They're relaxing in twilight town and if we need them. They will be quick to come by the Light Corridor. ." Said Sora, starting up the gummiship and taking them out to the Ocean Between., Sora hit the warp drive once they were clear of Destiny islands to their destination. Thirty minutes later. Sora pulled them out of warp drive anc before them was the Wizarding World.
A large magnificent castle stood tall with a giant crest with a lion, Snake, Badger and Eagle surrounding the H. The castle stood out on the large earth.
"So this is Merlin's homeworld" Sora said,
"And Harry's," said Kairi, looking at their son. Sora then pulled out his gummiphone to call Riku, "hey guys were here."
"We found a small abandoned parking lot. Sending you coordinates. Make sure you activate the ships cloaking device. We don't want to start a panic," said Riku.
"Right" said Sora, he pressed a button to activate the ships cloaking device. They fly over London where they see older models of cars from about twenty years ago from their world.
"Hey sora? What year is it here?" Asked Kairi.
"Looks like 1981." Said Sora looking at the display of the ship where it showed the time and date. The ship flew over until they saw Vanitas on the rooftop and he pointed downwards. Sora guided the ship down where their friends were waiting. Making sure the cloak was up fully did the family of three exit the ship. Like then. They also decided to wear normal clothes to blend in except for their armor.
"Glad to see you guys made it fine." Said Riku,
"Have you been in contact with Merlin yet?" Asked Sora.
"He wants us to meet at the Leaky Cauldron. He's sending a ride." Said Terra. A loud honk was heard making their heads turn to see a triple-decker, purple AEC Regent III RT pulling up to them. On the front of the bus is a sign saying Knight Bus. It came to a halt before them and the conductor exited out of the back.
"Welcome to the Knight Bus, Emergancy transport for the stranded witch or wizard. Just stick out your wand hand, step on board, and we can take you anywhere you want to go. My name is Stan Shunpike, and I will be your conductor today. Which ones of you are Sora and Kairi?" Said the Conductor.
"Right here" said Kairi.
"Your tickets have already been paid for by Mr, E so come on. I got a busy schedule." Said Stanley. Sora helped Kairi get Harry into the bus and the others followed suitly. Inside the bus were seats and it was filled with some wizards in the middle.. The group took a seat before Stan knocked on the window, "Take it away Ern"
A shrunken head with dreadlocks spoke with a Jamaican accent. "Yeah, take it away Ern! It's gonna be a bumpy ride!"
The driver who is an elderly man wearing googles took a bite out of his sandwich before pulling a lever. Instantly the bus takes off at blinding speed. Immediately did Kairi grab Harry out of the stroller and held him as the seats moved about. The bus drove in the speed of light passed other cars. "They can't see us?" Asked Ventus seeing that none of the other cars can see them.
"The muggles don't see us do they. " Stan read his paper standing close to the front.
"Yeah if you jab them with a fork then they will" said Dre Head before laughing. They pass by parliament and Big Ben before Stan asked. "Where are you wanting to go?"
"The Leaky Cauldron" said Riku,
" The Leaky Cauldron. Hey if you get the bee soup. Make sure you eat it before it eats you!" Said Dre Head. The bus then goes to a backroad where an old lady is seen crossing the street. "Ernie! Little old lady at 12 o'clock!"
Ernie hits the break and Ventus is thrown straight at the window. His head made contact with the glass. "Ohh that's gotta hurt." Said Terra while Ventus rubbed his cheek.
"Ven you alright?" Asked Aqua.
"I'm good" said Ventus
The little old lady took her time to cross the street while the shrunken head counted down. "10..9..8..7..6..5..4..3..2.1 and three quarters."
Once the old lady was cleared of the truck did the Bus resumed going it's course. Sora sees the paper in Stan's hands showing baby Harry and the letters. "Boy who lived still missing?"
"Boy Who Lived?" Asked Sora.
"Aye. The only one to ever survive against You Know Who. He was taken from his relatives by two strangers." Said Stan.
The five wielders shot a look at each other. Dumbledore was still making Sora and Kairi the bad guys. The Knight Bus goes over a bridge where two red two story buses are traveling down the road. Dre head speaks "Ernie, two double deckers at at two o'clock!, there right on top of us Ernie"
The five looked worried before Ernie slowed the bus down and he pulled down another lever. "Mind your head"
The seven then felt like they were being squeezed like a jelly bottle as the bus went in between the two double deckers.
"Hey, guys? Guys? Why the long faces?". Asked Dre Head going back to normal just as the rest of them do. Once the knight bus got through the two double deckers it resumed its fast speed and two minutes later. They arrived at their destination with a stop. This time nobody went flying into the window.
"The Leaky Cauldron…next stop is Knockturn Alley." Said Stan. They were quick to get off the bus watching it zoom into an alley where a cat screech is heard, "well that was fun" Vanitas said Sarcastically. The rest of them were fighting the urge to throw up.
"We are never going on that thing ever again," kairi said, putting Harry back into his stroller.. The group entered the pub and it had a few patrons. Merlin himself is at the bar drinking a cup of tea.. "Ah you made it."
He finished his tea before setting a gold coin on the bar top for the bartender.
"Morning. What can I help ya with" asked Tom.
"There with me Tom. Now come along. We have business to tend to at Gringotts then to St Mungos for the little ones shots." Said Merlin. . A man hidden in the back was quick to head to the fireplace to make a floo call."I found the boy Albus."
He led them to the back patio where a brick wall awaited them, Merlin tapped the bricks in order and before long. The wall formed into a doorway to reveal Diagon Alley, it was a bit lively with the magical citizens of Magical Britain doing their shopping for the upcoming Holiday.
"Welcome to Diagon Alley" said Merlin. The seven of them followed Merlin though the busy street. The two masters of the group were on soras left. Vanitas was behind Kairi who pushed Harry who looked at his surroundings with wide eyes. Ventus and Terra were beside her. Some people shot them looks but one person saw Harry before shouting."Look it's Harry Potter!"
Immediately. People swarmed around them just to get a better look at the boy. "Back off!" Shouted Riku. He and the others tried to keep them back but there were too many. Harry whimpered on all the attention.. he clearly didn't like the shouting and all of the people around him. Sora summoned Kingdom Key and shouted. "Wind!"
A hard gust of wind left his hand making everyone go back a few feet.. Many of them looked at the weapon in his hand not knowing anything about it.
"What is wrong with you people! He is just a baby!" snapped Kairi pushing Harry away from them with the others clearing a path to the bank, sora hoisted his weapon over his shoulder and caught up with his fiancé and friends. "You handled that well, Sora." Said Merlin, walking beside him.
"Seriously. He is just a baby and they're treating him like he's the messiah." Sora replied. they had no right to scare his son like that.
"Aye..we will cover that later. All I know is that the war in this world lasted for a long time and they haven't had peace in years ." Said Merlin climbing up the bank steps. The two goblins guarded the entrance and bowed to Sora, much to his confusion as they opened the doors. The group entered the bank with Merlin lead them to Griphook. "Ah Lord Emrrys, Bloodtooth is expecting you."
"Indeed and I have brought the guardians of the young Heir potter and their friends ?" Asked Merlin.
"I see. I was instructed by Bloodtooth to send you in." Said Griphook.
The group followed Griphook to Bloodtooths office which Merlin knocked. "Enter!"
He opens the door and Bloodtooth is seen going over papers when he looks up, "ah my Lord Emrys, Sora and Kairi. And a welcome to you all as well."
Chairs appeared for everyone who took a seat.
"So what's wrong with Harry's account?" Asked Sora,
"Nothing, we did have a miss Molly Weasley try to use a fake copy of Harry's trust vault key but we destroyed it and kicked her out of Gringotts. She is lucky we are not permanently Banning her or her family from Gringotts. I have his new key which I have taken the funds out of his trust vault" said Bloodtooth handing Sora a new key. He then went over the potter family's shares in businesses in their world. Before too long, the group of seven including Merlin exited the bank. "I have arranged lunch for us at the Cauldron with the Greengrass family.. Meet in an hour and afterwards we shall head for St, Mungos for the lads shots"
"Sounds good. It may do us some good to explore this place," said Sora. The group then split up. Terra, Aqua and Riku went to Flourish and Blotts which was a bookstore. Ventus and Vanitas went to check out the Magical Menagerie store that sold pets. It ranged from cats, toads, Owls, puppies and Snakes. Sora and Kairi walked with Harry down Diagon alley, sora's earlier show made the people keep their distance a bit.
"Mama ... .thirsty" said Harry to Kairi.
"Okay sweetheart…let's head for the pub. I'm sure they have drinks for children" said Kairi,
"Right" said Sora before he turned to see Albus Dumbledore wearing his traditional robes. His eyes formed a twinkle which made Kairi and Sora very uncomfortable."You must be Sora Osment and Kairi Panitierre."
"Yeah we are. What's it to you?" Asked Sora.
""Mr Osment, Miss Paniteirre " Dumbledore spoke in his grandfatherly voice "forgive me for intruding but I wish to discuss Harry's living arrangements with you"
He was met with a Keyblade pointing right at him, Kairi holding Destiny's Embrace said with a dark tone "You're the headmaster of Hogwarts,…your only concern should be the students at the school. Not their living arrangements"
"A keyblade…..I thought you all had died," said Dumbledore. He knew several of them during his youth before they vanished and never returned. He was aware of there being other worlds thanks to his ex lover Grindelwald.
"There are not many of us left but yes. We are both keyblade wielders" Said Sora making kairi lower her weapon who dismissed it. She had kept Harry's stroller turned away from him in case she needed to get away. ,
"Mr, Osment, Miss Panettiere" Dumbledore put some silencing spells around them so nobody could hear "it is imperative that Harry returns to privet drive"
"And why would we do that? Our mentor has told us that magic has named us his magical Guardians and we have filled out the paperwork to be named his none magical guardians. Even though we are young. We are ready for the responsibility of raising a child," said Sora.
"Mr Osment" Dumbledore decided to bring out his trump card "when Lily Potter died that night, her sacrifice gave Harry special protection. I had used it to place some blood wards at the house, so long as he lives with his aunt…"
"YOU DID WHAT! shouted Sora. The sky had turned dark and cloudy with a golden glow coming from the clouds. Kingdom Hearts has felt the call of its protector and waited behind the clouds for its call. Sora was furious, kairi had never seen him this furious before. Was this the fury he had when Xehanort Crystallized her to forge the x blade. She picked up Harry and held him. Vanitas and Ventus came from behind her and they had their Keyblades out ready to defend her and the baby.
"You mean to tell me you illegally took a baby's blood to power up Blood wards on someone's property without their permission!" Growled Sora, getting angry.
Dumbledore in all his years can feel the raw power that came from Sora. It even surpassed him and made him a bit afraid. He continued "See reason . He cannot be raised in the magical world for his own safety.."
" His safety is none of your concern. tell me why should I even listen to you!" barked Sora.
"I'm Albus Dumbledore!"
"You seem to be under the impression that i follow orders from you." Sora said. "Look Dumbledore, there are only two wizards that I look up to and you're not one of them. I don't care what achievements you claim or what titles you have, my priority is Harry. As long as I have my say then he'll grow up to be a strong and intelligent young man that would make both of his parents proud."
" Hence the reason why we have come to Magical England in the first place. To learn about his parents so we may tell him the truth once he is old enough to understand. " Kairi said.
"Mr Osment" Dumbledore didn't like this, he couldn't have Harry grow up to be strong and intelligent, that would make it harder for him to guide the boy to his fate and the potter fortune would be his along with the second Deathly Hallow."Then allow me to see where you are living. It'd be much more better for me to see where the boy will be and make sure its safe"
"Your an idiot…..you think that being raised by the King of Kingdom Hearts and The Princess of Heart means he is not safe..that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard…you just want to find out where they live so you can kidnap the boy and place him with that magic hating aunt of his. We're not stupid." Said Vanitas with a sneer.
"Listen up Dumbledore, there is nowhere in this world that is safer than with us. You are not Harry's guardian, you are not his grandfather, you're not even a Potter. You have no say in where or who Harry lives with, I may not be a Potter myself but I will ensure that he will live up to his family's legacy." Sora spoke his peace and he turned his back to the man, "come on! Let's go"
Kairi was quick to get Harry away from Dumbledore with Vanitas tailing behind her. Dumbledore didn't like this at all, he definitely didn't want Harry to be raised by somebody he couldn't control and he needed more information on this boy. What did the raven haired version of sora mean by King. He was just an ordinary boy who happened to be a keyblade wielder. Dumbledore decided to read this boy's mind, he had barely started when Sora was quick to appear right in his face. He grabbed him by the robes and lifted him off the ground. Kingdom Key was out and pointing at his neck. Fire burned in Sora's eyes and the headmaster felt afraid. All heads turn to see Sora pointing his weapon at Albus Dumbledore,Chief Warlock, Supreme Mugwump of the ICW, Headmaster of Hogwarts and leader of the light was being held by this mysterious boy who happened to show magic they had never seen before with that giant key of his.
"How Dare You!" Sora snapped. A golden aura surrounded him, sending ripples through the air. "Well shit." Said Vanitas seeing the golden aura.
"Sora release him,!" Said Merlin appearing out of thin air, he had his hood up. He had felt the large spike of power coming from the alley and he feared that sora would summon Kingdom Hearts. Terra, Aqua and Riku came out of Flourish and Blotts. They see the commotion and like Kairi, they too felt the anger coming from Sora.
"He tried to read my mind Master Em" said Sora using the name that Merlin wanted until he was ready to reveal himself. Many onlookers gasped and glanced at Dumbledore.
"He shall be dealt with ... .release him…you're scaring everyone" said Merlin. Sora looked back to his friends and the crowd. Some of the children hid behind their parents afraid of him. The parents however were angry at Dumbledore for trying to read the mind of a minor which was a big offense in their world .
Sora lowered Dumbledore down to the ground and let him go. He said. "Never….ever try to read my mind again ... .I'll let it slide one time but next time. I won't be so lenient."
He then walks over to his fiance and friends. The sky had changed back to the normal cloudy weather. They then head for the leaky cauldron leaving Merlin and Dumbledore. "Know this Mr. Dumbledore. I do not take kindly of you reading the minds of my pupils. Continue to harass them while we are here and I will transform you into a fern. You have been warned,"
Merlin turned to follow the keyblade wielders leaving dumbledore being stared at the crowd, he apparaited as quickly as he could, he needed to find another way to get Harry Potter back from the key bearers.
End chapter.
