CHAPTER 7
SOMETHING FUNNY THIS WAY
COMES
Xander walked in to the store and looked around with wonder. There where shelves of joke paraphernalia. Xander walked around the shop, looking at all the ways to get in trouble. His eyes darted over the store looking around he did not watch in front of him so he bumped in to a red haired boy.
"Sorry didn't see you there." Xander told the other boy.
"It's alright Fred Weasley;" the boy said extended his hand. "You're not from here are you? "
"Names Xander Harris and no I from America Sunnydale California." Xander said shaking the other youth's hand.
At the name of Xander home town Fred went white as a sheet. A man with thinning red hair came over to them looking concerned for the red haired youth.
"Fred son what's wrong son." The boy's father said
"Dad he's from the Hellmouth. You know Where Bill went last year on his first assignment." Fred said to his father.
The red haired man looked at Xander a bit as if studying him it only lasted a few seconds and he thrust his hand out shaking Xander's hand with a wide pleasant smile on his face.
"Nice to meet you names Arthur Weasley." Mr. Weasley said in a friendly tone.
"Nice to meet you as well sir my name is Xander Harris. What is a hellmouth any way and who is Bill?"
"Arthur? What are you doing here you old dog." Remus said with a grin.
"Remus. Good to see you. I was taking the twins to get there school supplies Molly would have done it but she is busy with Percy, Ron and Ginny being sick. Xander, is he yours?" Arthur asked.
"No no Xander is
James' nephew. We found out a few days ago really funny story about
it both parents are squibs. First time some thing like that has
happened in a while."
While the adults talked the kids took the
time to slip away to talk to each other. Going to the back of the
store where the dung bombs and Filibuster's Fabulous No-Heat,
Wet-Start Fireworks where kept.
"So what is a hellmouth?" Xander asked the twins.
The twins looked at each other and Fred shrugged and nodded to George.
"Well The hellmouth is a gathering place for all sort of very nasty non-humans most notably is vampires. I'm George by the way." He said as he shaking Xander's' hand.
"I'm Xander. Are you trying to tell me that my home town has vampires." Seeing the twins nod"Well that explains the 12 graveyards and why there is a sundown curfew on children under 13 and why we have 12 churches."
"You did not think that it was odd to have so many." Fred said.
"Yea from what Bill said it is a small town." George finished.
Xander shrugged "I have only lived there so how should I know." He said with a little embarrassment in his voice. "My friends would love this place well Jess would Willow would make sure we did not get in to much trouble."
The children talked about best ways prank and how not to get caught or in much trouble. During the hour the children talked and got to become fast friends the adults watch them. The men smiled at the way they were becoming fast friends. Remus got a bit of a twinkle in his eye as he lend over to Arthur.
"Arthur do you have this feeling that we just set loose something on Hogwarts that will have Albus after us for years." Remus asked softly.
Arthur looked at the other man and smiled. "No Remus I was not till now and Molly will kill me if they get in to trouble so I will have to pin it on you." He said with a smile.
As the boys talked and picked up trinkets for the school year and Xander picked up some treats at he counter they agreed to meet again before the summer was out to plot and plan jokes on other students. Remus took Xander for dinner at the Leaky Cauldron.
"Uncle Remus when I meet Willow and Jess later next week can I bring them some of the candy here I was thinking of Bean of every flavor for Jess and Chocolate Frogs for Willow since she loves frogs." Xander asked with the dreaded puppy eyes not as good as willow's but she trained him well.
"I don't see a problem with it most muggle born bring home some to there friends and brothers and sisters." Remus replied.
As the two took the floo home Xander was happy he made two new friends who like to have fun like him and meet and old friend who will be going to school with him. When they made it home they found out that Xander's' parents where already home talking quietly in the study.
"How was your day honey? Did you have fun with Remus?" mother Harris asked.
"It was fun mom I meet Amy from Sunnydale here her father went to Hogwarts and so is she. Also I meet to kids my age going to school with me Fred and George Weasley." Xander told his mother.
"Good to hear you meeting people your own age and who will be going to school with you. You are going to be a bit busy the next few days I'm afraid. Your uncle wants to meet you and we are trying to get you Cousin Harry here. Also you godmother wants to meet you." Xander's father told him.
Tinky pop in next to Xander "Master Xander you bath is ready and Tinky has put away you school supplies and clothes." The tiny house elf told him in a high voice.
As Xander came back in his room after is bath and began to read through a few of his books so as to be caught up and to make sure to keep his parents happy as they were now. He heard a noise behind him looking back he noticed a group of boys looking at him from a painting.
"Hey Prongs know who this bloke in the guest room is." Said a young man with black hair.
"No I don't Paddfoot do either of you know Wormtail?" A plump kid shook his head. "Moony do you".
"Of course I do I talk to the other paintings you know this your nephew Alexander. He is going to Hogwarts next year." Said the boy who looked a little like Remus.
Xander looked at the boys "You're my Uncle James right and you look like Remus."
"He got you there Moony." Paddfoot said as he sat on a stump. " And got you to as well Prongs."
" if you don't mind I would love to talk to
you all but I have a busy day tomorrow. I have to met my Uncle and
were trying to meet with your son Harry Uncle James so good night."
With that the tired eleven year old went to bed and fell fast a
sleep. To the shock of the group
"I have a son?" said the
painting of James Potter.
Sorry for this being so late it would have been out last year around September but I found out I had cancer and with the chemo I did not want to sit in front of a computer a lot. Some things of note Giles will make a appearance or two in later chapters I figure he was in Sunnydale a few years as the watcher there so he could fill in the Slayer and her watcher if they show up he just ended up with Buffy. Yes there will be a chocolate frog thing that made Willow afraid of them he is after a joker. I had Painting James not know about Harry because he only has a few paintings of him mostly here in the house so no one told him or that he and Lilly were dead.
Also I have no beta if someone would like to help me out let me know please.
