The Mysteries of Hogwarts
-~\/~-
"Now, before dinner is started, we have a few more students to sort. They're all exchange students from the Japanese School for the Magically Gifted. Please allow them to feel welcome for the extent of their stay." Dumbledore nodded to Snape, who was seated closest to the side door, and the dour Potions Professor motioned four students into the Great Hall.
It seemed like the entirety of Hogwarts wanted a good look at the new students. Over at the Gryffindor Table, which was the farthest from the side door, all they could see was a head of unnaturally red hair that stuck out every which way walking next to a head of auburn hair with a head of dull brown hair walking next to a head of light blue hair behind the first two.
The four new students stopped before McGonagall, who had pulled out a new - much smaller - scroll. "Harada Riku."
The auburn-haired student, female, detached her hand from the red-head and stepped up to put on the Sorting Hat, which had been sitting innocently on the first years' stool. It didn't take long before the Hat called out, "GRYFFINDOR!"
The Hall clapped cheerfully as McGonagall pointed the girl over to the Gryffindor Table. As Harada Risa, the brunette, stepped up to put on the Hat, Riku took the seat that one Ginny Weasley had waved her towards.
"GRYFFINDOR!" the Hat roared again and Riku waved her, from the looks of things, twin sister over to where she sat.
"Hiwatari Satoshi." The red-head offered the blue-haired boy a large grin as he stepped calmly up and took the Hat.
"SLYTHERIN!" The blue-haired boy stepped over to the calmly ecstatic table of snakes, sending a brief smile over to the brunette twin on the opposite side of the room.
"Niwa Daisuke."
It took almost two minutes for the Hat to sort the red-head. Finally, as if Ginny's brother's stomach growling were a cue, the rip in the brim of the Hat called out, "GRYFFINDOR!" and Daisuke stepped over to the lions' table - receiving a hug from Riku before taking the empty seat between the twins.
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Please tuck in!" Dumbledore sat down as food covered the once-empty tables.
"Welcome to Hogwarts," Ginny offered as the three Japanese students stared in amazement at the table of food suddenly before them.
"Amazing..." Risa breathed.
"I suppose it is," a black-haired boy across from Daisuke mumbled, staring blankly at his empty plate.
A brunette and a flaming red-head on either side of the black-haired boy traded worried looks around him before the brunette called out in a softly wavering voice, "Harry?"
Dull green eyes blinked up into brown for a moment. Then a bright smile broke out on his face and he turned his attention to the three new students. "Excuse my poor manners, please. I'm Harry Potter. To my right is Hermione Granger - the Head Girl. To my left is Ron Weasley - seventh year Prefect. That's Ginny Weasley on your rights and Dean Thomas on your lefts. Next to Hermione is Seamus Finnegan and next to Ron is Neville Longbottom." The smile grew as he recognized confusion on the foreigners' faces. "Don't worry about remembering everyone's names. We'll give you a good month before we start pranking you for any mistakes."
"Th-that's a relief," Risa whispered, eyes wide.
"What year are you three in?" Hermione asked as everyone tucked in.
"Seventh," Riku offered, as her sister's mouth was full.
As Hermione and Ginny dragged the Harada twins into separate conversations, Daisuke frowned inconspicuously at Harry, who was just pushing a small pile of food around his plate dully. Ron, also noticing Harry's lack of eating, or perhaps watching for it, elbowed his best friend. "You need to eat."
"I know." Harry continued pushing his food around.
"Harry!" Ron hissed furiously.
Harry put a carrot in his mouth and visibly chewed and swallowed it. Then he turned to Ron and scowled at him. "Talk to Neville or something. Just stop pestering me."
"I'll stop pestering you when you eat a whole meal."
Harry slammed his palms down on the table top and stood, catching the attention of the whole Hall. "I'm not hungry. Excuse me." Then he stalked from the Hall.
"Harr-!" Ron started to stand as well, but both Neville and Hermione grabbed his arms and shook their heads. Ron sighed, but relaxed back into his seat.
Daisuke glanced past Harry's empty seat towards where Satoshi sat and their eyes met. Harry reminded Daisuke of how Satoshi had once acted - as if he had no reason for living any longer.
Once certain that no one at the Gryffindor Table would notice his absence, Daisuke slipped from his seat and easily melted into the shadows, then stepped quickly but quietly towards the exit of the Great Hall. It may have been three years since his other self, Dark, had left, but Daisuke had hardly let his talents as the phantom thief diminish.
Satoshi met him in the entrance hall. "How do you plan on finding him in this maze?"
"With magic of course," Daisuke replied matter-of-factly and pulled out his wand.
After the disappearance of their other selves, both Daisuke and Satoshi had learned that they'd gained some of Dark and Krad's magical abilities - or perhaps the presence of the two elder spirits had awoken their own abilities - and they'd been invited to a magical school in Kyoto. Somehow, their girlfriends had also earned gifts - perhaps from spending so much time with Daisuke and chasing after Dark - and had also been invited to attend. The four friends had excelled at their new school and their headmaster had decided to send them to Hogwarts for their last year, as the British school was more advanced.
"Don't say it, Dai," Satoshi groaned, pulling out his own wand.
Both boys chanted, "Boku an'nai suru," under their breath. They followed their wands up several flights of stairs to a grand wooden door. There were voices coming from behind it - one Harry's, the other a much older man's with a cultured accent probably used around fifty years ago.
"I can't help that I'm not hungry, Tom," Harry said.
"I don't care whether you're hungry or not, you still need to eat," the elder man - Tom - replied sharply.
"It doesn't matter."
"It matters to me! Damnit, Harry! I can't just stand by and let you starve yourself!"
"I'd rather die by my own hand than by yours."
"So you'll just leave me alone again?"
"Tom, that's not-"
"Stop. I already told you that I was going to find some other way around the prophesy, didn't I?"
"You and I both know you can't change your fate," Harry replied dully. "One of us will kill the other eventually, and our lives can never be full while we worry about it."
Daisuke and Satoshi traded looks. Was it possible to cheat fate? Hadn't they both done so, with Dark's help, three years ago?
A loud sigh sounded from Tom, then, "I'll find a way, love, I promise. For now, please eat."
"But-"
"No buts. You need to eat. Don't make me come to the school and force-feed you."
"Oh, fine. Good night."
"Good night, you little brat."
Daisuke and Satoshi picked that moment to turn away and walk quickly away. Best not to get caught eavesdropping by their new year mate.
"Think they're done with dinner yet?" Daisuke inquired easily.
"If not, I'm certain you can use that little spell you found to get into the common room." Satoshi replied with no little amount of sarcasm.
Daisuke shot his best friend a smirk. "Wanna come with? Help me find my new bed? Break it i-"
"Dai." Satoshi's tone was one of warning.
The red-head looked away. "Sorry."
Satoshi rolled his eyes and stepped in front of Daisuke, making him pause. "Dai, it's not that I don't want to spend more time with you, it's that I most likely won't be welcomed by your roommates. Remember what that book said about the different houses?"
"Yeah, I remember." Daisuke looked up into calm blue eyes sadly. "Can I at least have a kiss good night?"
"One of these days, Risa and Riku are going to catch us, Dai," Satoshi pointed out, his lips twitching.
"You've been saying that for the past two years," Daisuke shot back easily.
The ends of Satoshi's lips curled upward and he leaned in to plant a firm kiss on Daisuke's lips. "Good night, my phantom."
Daisuke smiled sadly. "Good night, my commander."
With that, the two separated - following their wands towards their new dorms.
-~/\~-
"Hey, Risa?"
Risa glanced up at her sister from her new bed. "What is it, Riku?" she inquired, careful to keep her voice down, as Lavender and Parvati had already fallen to sleep.
"Where's Hermione?"
Risa blinked a few times in surprise, then sat up and looked over towards the Head Girl's empty bed. "I think she said she had to do something before bed. Why?"
Riku nibbled on her lower lip for a long moment in indecision before speaking, "Because I could have sworn I heard her and Ginny moaning in the shower together."
Risa's eyes went wide. "Uhm..." She looked away to hide her blush. "I don't know. Pretend it never happened and just go to bed.
Riku sighed helplessly and climbed into her bed near the door. "Good night, then."
"Good night," Risa whispered back. How was she supposed to sleep now?!
-~/\~-
"This place is weird!" Riku informed Daisuke and Satoshi when the four Japanese students met up outside the Great Hall the next morning.
"I miss our old school!" Risa agreed.
"Good morning!" Hermione called as she, Ron, and Ginny all walked down the grand staircase towards the group of foreigners. Ron and Ginny were both shooting Satoshi suspicious looks.
Risa's face lit up like Rudolph's nose and she hid her face in her sister's shirt.
Satoshi and Daisuke traded amused looks. "Something wrong, Risa?" Satoshi inquired of his girlfriend.
"Shut up!" Risa shot back, not looking up.
"What's going on?" Ron demanded as the three Brits stopped next to the Japanese.
Daisuke grinned. "Risa started blushing when you lot came down the stairs."
"Dai!" squealed Risa. She pulled away from her sister to smack Daisuke - who burst out laughing. "Jerk!"
Riku joined her boyfriend in laughing at the younger Harada and Risa scowled at them. Satoshi - on the other hand - was watching Hermione and Ginny blush bright red themselves.
"If it isn't the Gryffindorks!" a voice called as a group of Slytherins came into view from the dungeon staircase. "Wonder where precious Potter is today? Too scared to show his face?" The group of snakes stopped in front of the group of lions and Satoshi - who it seemed the other Slytherins couldn't see. A blonde boy with a pointed face, an arrogant smile, and a Head Boy badge appeared to be the leader.
"Piss off, ferret!" Ron shot back, eyes narrowed.
"Ron," a soft voice sighed. Everyone spun around to see Harry stepping into the entrance hall from outside. "Don't let him get to you."
Even the Slytherins looked on in concern at the Boy-Who-Lived - who looked far too sickly to be wandering around. The blonde quickly hid his worry with a sneer, though. "Well, well, if it isn't Potty himself. Trying to kill yourself, Potty?"
"Why not. Wouldn't want Voldemort's head to get too bloated, now would we?" Harry shot back coolly, then turned to Satoshi. "Hiwatari Satoshi, right?"
All attention turned to the blue-haired Slytherin, who blinked at Harry in surprise. "Yes?"
Harry smiled slightly. "Daisuke speaks highly of you. If the other Slytherins give you issues, feel free to come sit with us."
Satoshi cocked an eyebrow at his best friend before bowing towards Harry. "Thank you very much, Mr Potter."
Harry shrugged. "Of course." Then he turned and slipped into the Great Hall.
"Better watch out for little Potty," the blonde offered after Harry was gone. "The Dark Lord wouldn't like it if he starved to death, you know." Then he led his group into the Hall as well.
"Who was that?" Riku demanded angrily.
"Draco Malfoy," Ron offered, gazing after the Slytherins. "But he's right. We need to keep a closer eye on Harry."
Hermione let out and aggravated sound and started into the Great Hall as she spoke, everyone else following her so they could still hear, "If I've told you once, I've told you a million times - the only person who's going to get Harry to eat is T-" Hermione froze in her steps, eyes rooted to where Harry sat at the Gryffindor Table, eating slowly.
"I think it already happened," Ginny snorted, then led everyone the rest of the way down the table - Satoshi being dragged by the Harada twins.
As the group sat down around Harry, the Boy-Who-Lived offered Satoshi a faint smile. "Get dragged over here?"
"Yes," Risa replied for her boyfriend. "And he's staying, or I'm dumping him."
"One of these days, that threat's not going to work anymore, you know," Riku snorted, piling her plate with food.
Daisuke and Satoshi traded looks that quite clearly said that it didn't work as it was.
Harry smiled across the table at the two Japanese boys. "I was wondering - how is it that you can speak English so well?"
The other three students looked at Satoshi, who let out a heavy sigh. "Our Headmaster gave us rings which translate everything for us. We're really speaking in Japanese and we hear what you say in Japanese, rather than English."
"Amazing." Hermione leaned forward. "Do you know how it works?"
"The ring is just a solid carrier for a variety of spells. I have a book on the subject, if you'd like," Satoshi offered.
"I'd love to borrow it!" Hermione replied, eyes bright.
"Hermione, what if it's in Japanese?" Ron inquired dryly from Harry's other side. Harry just grinned at the new twist on a familiar argument.
"We have a spell for that, too," Daisuke offered easily. "We needed it for the English books on our supply lists."
"Oh." Ron sat back in his seat, looking properly cowed. "That makes sense."
The group laughed and, after a moment, Ron joined them.
McGonagall chose that moment to walk up to them and hand out their schedules. She also had one for Satoshi, since it seemed his Head of House had handed it to her when he saw where the last of the new seventh years was sitting. The four British students watched on in awe as the four Japanese students cast their spell on their schedules so they could read them. Then everyone continued with their meal as Hermione pestered Daisuke and Satoshi for more information on spells they knew.
By the time they had to break up for classes - the four exchange students had become fully integrated into the famed "Gryffindor Four".

A/N: I need to stop starting new fics, damnit.... -.-*
Update schedule for this will be extremely erratic - as I have nothing really planned for it.
Japanese:
Boku an'nai suru - Guide me(masculine form) - spell basically acts the same way as the "Point me" spell used by English magic users.
Read and review, minna!
