Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Dumbledore's Niece ❯ invitation to hogwarts ( Chapter 1 )

There was a little confusion in my first "Dumbledore's Niece" so I decided to try it again. I have finally figured out all that uncle-niece-grandfather stuff ^_^. I hope you enjoy this better version of "Dumbledore's Niece".

Disclaimer: Harry Potter and its characters do not belong to me. They all belong to J.K. Rowling. Sailor Moon and its characters does not belong to me either, but to Naoko Takeuchi. Characters you've never heard of do belong to me however, so you can't steal that unless you've been given permission :-P.

BTW: I will be making 1st years 13 year old, so that it'll fit in the whole Sailor Moon timeline I'm going on, except they'll be a year younger. Hope this doesn't confuse you ^_^.

~* Invitation to Hogwarts *~

Uni sighed as she stared out the window of her room. She was so bored! She has been ever since they'd defeat the Doom Tree, Alan, and Anne. She sighed again and turned towards her computer. Uni placed her head on her arm and drummed her fingers. She couldn't think of anything to write and it was very frustrating for her. All she had was, well, nothing. She sighed again and got up to lie on her bed. She closed her eyes.

"UNI, WAKE UP!!!" two people screamed together, into her ears. Uni's eyes open as quickly as it had closed and jumped a little.

She looked at the two girls standing next to her bed with annoyance. One had shoulder-length dark black hair, like hers, and was slightly taller than her and was a year older than her. She was in the same grade she was in. The other girl had also shoulder-length dark black hair, but a little longer, also slightly taller than she was and her hair was put up in a ponytail. She was older than she by a couple of months was, but Uni was a grade ahead of her.

Uni sat up from her position and looked at them. "Why did you do that for?" she asked, annoyed. "Do you not have anything better to do?"

They both smiled, proud of what they did. "We were bored," replied the first girl, named Arina.

"Maybe we shouldn't have gotten rid of Alan and Anne so fast," said Samantha, called Sam for short.

Uni rolled her eyes and got up towards her computer. She stared at the monitor and sighed. "I can't think of anything," she whined.

Arina walked up to her and also looked at the monitor. "You usually can write anything in a snap, Uni. You must be having writer's block."

"Humph. I have never had one before and I am not going to have one now," she said sitting down. Uni placed her fingers onto her keyboard and waited until something came to her. After a while, nothing had come to her and she sighed again.

"Maybe if we do something fun, you'll have full of ideas," said Sam, behind them. She was on Uni's bed and flipping through one of Uni's books she had. "Why do you have so much books on space anyways?"

"Because I do..." Uni snatched the book away from her and put it back onto her bookshelf.

"Let's go find Darien," suggested Sam.

"Yeah!" cried Arina, "Maybe he'll know what to do!"

Uni sighed and said, "You two go on ahead. I will stay here and sleep."

"NO WAY!" they screamed. They each grabbed one of her wrists and dragged her out where Darien was sitting, reading a book.

He heard them coming towards him so he put his book down to stare at the three girls now living with him. A couple months ago, he had been living alone until he found Uni and they became partners fighting crime and helping Sailor Moon. After Beryl's henchmen kept attacking her family, she decided to move out for fear that one day, they truly will get killed and so moved in with Darien. So that people would not get suspicious, she changed her last name from White to Shield and pretended to be his little sister. They had gotten so close that it almost felt like they were siblings.

Later on, they bumped into Arina, who they found out was the mysterious Sailor StarLight that had been helping them get out of some jams they had gotten themselves into. Arina lost her home and family because Beryl's henchmen and didn't have a home. So, Uni and Darien let her live with them.

Then, they ran into Sam. Alan and Anne were trying to take her energy for their Tree, but failed. Showing her courage by standing up to them, an insignia appeared on her forehead. It revealed that she was Sailor Quasar. After defeating them, she decided to live with them just for the heck of it and Darien hesitantly agreed.

"Something wrong?" asked Darien.

"We're bored," declared Arina and Sam. They still had their grip on Uni, who had a dark look on her face.

"Well, what do you want me to do about it?"

"Can't you think of anything fun we can do?" asked Arina.

"We're so bored that even Uni can't think of anything to write. Right, Uni?" said Sam.

"…"

"Umm…well, you guys could read books," suggested Darien, hesitantly, knowing the answer.

"That's boring!" Sam rolled her eyes.

Uni sighed and let her mind wander from their conversation. She looked around the room, even though she knew where everything was. Her eyes roamed towards the living room slide door, leading to the balcony. Interested in what she saw, and also curious, she silently got away from her family and towards the balcony. Uni slide-open the door and stepped out. She took a deep breath, letting the fresh air in. Her hair whipped into her hair and she carefully tucked it behind her hair.

She looked back at Darien, Arina, and Sam who were now arguing and sighed. Not wanting to hear them, she closed the door. Uni turned back to what she saw and reached out to take the envelope. What she saw was an owl, perching on the rail, with an envelope in its claws. She took the envelope, which the owl let her take, and opened it. She quickly read it and by the time she finished, she had a stern look on her face.

She stepped back into the living room and this time, Arina and Sam were arguing, Darien was reading his book again. He was trying to read but couldn't concentrate. So, he gave up and was just staring at them arguing. Darien looked at Uni.

"What's wrong?" he asked her.

Uni sat next to him on the couch and handed him the letter. Then, she helped herself to some chips Darien had brought before they even came in. She munched on them while Darien read the letter.

"Hey, Arina, Sam," he said trying to get their attention, after finishing reading the letter. They ignored him and continued arguing. "uhh…guys?"

Uni motioned Darien to hand her the letter and he did as he was told. Still eating the chips, she shoved the letter under Arina's nose for her to read since she was the closest. That got their attention.

"What's this?" asked Sam, looking over Arina's shoulder.

"Read it," instructed Uni, drinking a glass of coke, which appeared out of nowhere and into her hands.

Arina read the letter and so did Sam from behind her.

"You two wanted adventure," said Uni, 'Well, you got your wish."

"…I'll call Serena!!!" shouted Arina, she ran towards the phone.

"Whoo-hoo! We're going to England!" said Sam, she ran into her room to pack. They left Darien and Uni there on the couch.

"…They seem excited," said Darien, finally.

"They are excited about everything," replied Uni, dully, as she got up.

"Good point," Darien stood up and towards the door. He turned towards Uni and said, "I'll be right back."

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"I was suppose to meet Serena a little while ago," he answered.

Uni looked at Arina in the kitchen. She was screaming at the phone, trying to find out where Serena was.

"Then, I guess you will have to tell her about…"

"Yep, was planning on doing that anyways," he said, putting his jacket on.

"Drop me off at the temple," she said, "I will tell the others."

"Okay," he said. Uni walked into her room and grabbed her own jacket, which was black. Leaving her room, she locked it, since she liked her privacy and she knew that Arina and Sam kept going in there when she didn't lock it. They didn't know she knew. She had a sense for these things.

They left the apartment without Arina and Sam noticing. Outside, both of them got on Darien's motorcycle and rode to the temple.

"Sam!! Do you know where Darien and Uni are!?" shrieked Arina, in the apartment after she gave up on finding Serena.

"Nope," replied Sam, stepping out of their room they shared. They both stared at each other in puzzlement. Where were Darien and Uni?

"Thanks," said Uni, getting off the motorcycle. She handed him her helmet and walked towards the temple.

Before riding off, Darien said, "Pick you up in an hour!!"

"'K."

She walked up the long stairs, up towards the temple. Uni sighed. The stairs were so long. When she finally reached the top, she saw Raye sweeping the front of the temple, where you could usually find her.

Raye looked up and saw Uni. She waved. "Hey, Uni," she said in a cheery voice.

"Hello, Raye," replied Uni, "Are the others here?"

"Well, we've got another study meeting in a couple minutes," said Raye, looking at her watch.

"I suppose Serena will not be able to join," said Uni.

"Of course she's coming," answered Raye. "She better not miss this one!"

"Hey, Raye!!!" shouted Mina, running up to the temple. "HEY, UNI!" Behind her were Amy, Lita, Haruka, Michiru, and Setsuna who was carrying little Hotaru.

"Why must you all always yell at me?" Uni asked, quietly.

Once they caught up with Mina, Amy said, "We found Haruka, Michiru, and Setsuna on the way here. They decided to join us."

"That's great!" said Raye. "Let's go in."

Everyone followed Raye inside the temple and into her room, where they all usually studied. They all sat in different parts of the room. Setsuna and Hotaru sat on Raye's bed, Michiru and Haruka sat on the floor next to the bed, and Mina, Raye, Amy, and Lita sat around the table Raye had in her room. Uni just stood next to the door.

Lita looked around and said, "Where's Serena?"

"She hasn't arrived yet!" Raye shrieked angrily, making Hotaru cry.

"Raye!" scolded Michiru. "Stop your yelling."

"You made little Hotaru cry," said Haruka.

"Sorry," said Raye sheepishly.

"Where is Serena, anyways?" said Setsuna, trying to calm Hotaru calm down at the same time.

Uni walked over to Setsuna and took Hotaru. Somehow, she calmed her down and handed her back to Setsuna, gently.

"How did…" started Setsuna.

"I believe Serena will not be coming, as I said," she interrupted.

"How do you know that?" asked Mina.

Uni shrugged and said, "Darien went to meet her a while ago. He dropped me off here, so I could tell you all the news. Arina and Sam already know and so does Darien. He went to tell Serena."

"I can't believe she ditched us!!" shrieked Raye.

"There is no time to argue now," Uni said calmly, "This is an emergency."

"What is so urgent?" asked Haruka, seriously. Everyone looked at her, waiting for an answer.

"I have just received a letter from a school named Hogwarts," said Uni.

"Hogwarts?" questioned Amy, "Where is that? I've never heard of it before."

"Of course not," continued Uni, "Not many people in this world has gone to a school of magic. Few are chosen."

"Magic!!!?" everyone cried at the same time.

"Yes. We have been invited to Hogwarts to learn more about magic," said Uni, but before she could continue Mina, Raye, and Lita cheered loudly.

"Oh my, magic," said Amy.

After they quieted down, Uni said, "But…"

"But what?" asked Haruka.

"…We also have been hired to protect the students there and a particular boy that has joined them this year. Sam and Arina are already packed, I suppose, and Darien and I will also go. The question is, will you come too?"

"There's no question at all that I will come," said Haruka, standing up.

"If Haruka goes, then so will I," Michiru said, also standing up.

"I will also go," said Setsuna, "After all, Michiru, Haruka and I are a team. We will stick together."

Uni nodded and looked towards the Inner Scouts. "I'll go, too," said Raye, "Grandpa won't mind if I leave. Especially if it's school."

"I know I'm going!" cried Lita.

"I'm sure my mother will let me go," said Amy, thinking out loud, "After all, I wish to study this magic more. I'll go too."

Everyone looked at Mina. She smiled and screamed, "Well, if everyone is going. So am I!!!!"

Hotaru cried again and everyone glared at Mina and Uni left to wait for Darien.

"Where do we go now?" asked Arina.

The scouts had all left days ago and had catch a plane to England. They went to the train station called King's Cross and were looking for Platform 9 ¾. Arina, Serena, and Sam went up to a worker and asked, but all he did was laugh as he walked away from them.

"That was just plain rude," said Arina.

"It's like he thought we were joking around," said Sam.

"It is obvious," Uni said quietly.

"What's obvious?" asked Haruka.

"The platform is magical."

"I don't get it," said Mina, Lita, Serena, Arina, and Sam together.

"Those who do not have magic are forbidden to know about the magic world."

"I understand," said Darien. "The world of the magic has to be hidden."

"So, you are saying that the platform is invisible to us?" asked Setsuna.

"Nothing is invisible," said Uni.

The scouts stood there, not knowing what to do next. They had no idea how to find the platform, especially without asking the workers and laughing in their face again.

"Do you need any help?" someone asked from behind them. They all turned around and saw a man. He was looking very old indeed, since he had a white-beard and all. He wore blue robes with stars on it and glasses.

"It may seem ridiculous," said Michiru. "But we are looking for Platform 9 ¾."

"Yes, the workers here seem to think it is a joke when we asked them," said Setsuna.

"Ahh…" he said, "Muggles. Always laughing at the unthinkable."

"I have no idea what you just said," Sam declared.

"Me neither," agreed Arina.

"What's muggles?" asked Serena.

He chuckled. "I am Professor Dumbledore."

"The headmaster," said Uni.

"Yes, indeed I am. I had a feeling you wouldn't be able to find the platform. So, I decided to come and meet you myself."

"That's so nice of you," thanked Raye.

"Come this way," the professor led the way and between the platforms 9 and 10. Walk right through this wall here, and you will see Platform 9 ¾."

"But it's a wall!!" said Serena.

"Yeah, someone might get hurt," said Mina.

"You all wanted adventure didn't you?" asked Uni. "Why not take a chance?"

They all thought about it. Suddenly, Arina ran towards the wall and disappeared as she hit it. Uni walked towards it, instead of running and also disappeared. The others shrugged and went through. Dumbledore went after them, after making sure everyone got through.

So how do you all like it? I might change the title…but then again, I think I'll just let it be. Please review, review! (This is the only fic that I don't have writer's block on **sighs**)
