I've been wanting to write an HP crossover and I think I finally came up with a good enough idea to make one!
Disclaimer: I don't own W.i.t.c.h. and any of it's story or characters or Harry Potter and the rest of J.K. Rowling's amazing creations. I'm just a writer who loves both and had to combine them!
Chapter 1: The Point of No Return
Will's sneakers squeaked on the sidewalk as she walked forward with her hands in the pockets of her baggy jeans, solemn eyes toward the ground and watching her feet take step after step. She moved with no direction, no sense of where she was going. Will felt like a dead corpse walking the streets, and she supposed she looked like one too. What had Will done to deserve this? Was it because she was the Keeper of the Heart of Candracar...
Thunder roared overhead and Will looked up at the dark sky that threatened rain. People walked past her as they headed toward the many stores lining the street. A group of teenage girls were giggling as they walked into a shop selling the newest styles of clothes. She couldn't even remember the last time she had been happy and carefree with friends, everything seemed years behind her. Will frowned and kept walking slowly down the sidewalk.
"Mass killings are quickly being spread over Europe and are starting to also effect everyone in the world. Police departments are doing everything they can to catch these serial killers, but everyone needs to still be on guard. Most of these armed men and women are witnessed to be wearing black robes and masks so if you see anybody fitting that description, call 911 immediately!"
Will looked up again and to her left where a radio store had a display of televisions that had the evening news on th A crowd of people were pointing with fear and excitement at a picture of a person standing with black robes and a skull-like mask plastered on the face.
A shiver ran down her spine as she stared up into the cold and heartless face of someone who had done so much evil, killed so many people. The picture disappeared and went back to the news crew.
"There have also been many natural disasters such as fires, hurricanes, and earthquakes causing us harm. Whether they are connected to the mass murders, experts are not certain, but we will update that suspicion as soon as possible. We'll show you the proper techniques to protecting your family and home in just a few short moments. Jack?"
A man with clean-cut brown hair nodded and cleared his throat as more people stopped by Will to watch what they were saying.
"There are now many more people reported missing so if you have seen any of these people, please contact the number at the bottom of the pictures we will show you, or call 911."
Photo by photo flashed on the screen that Will stared at. A raindrop fell on Will's cheek, but she barely felt it. She stared intently at the pictures of people who were missing, and some who she knew were already dead.
It got darker and rain started to fall to the ground steadily. People opened their umbrellas and decided to head on home before the weather got really bad. Will stood there, water soaking every inch of her body, as she took a sharp intake of breath at two of the pictures that had appeared on the screen. One of them was of Matt Olsen, and the other of Susan Vandom.
Will backed away with shock and accidentally bumped into a car that was about to start driving off.
"Hey kid! Watch where you're going!"
"Sorry." Will whispered as she started running away.
She already knew it, but seeing it on the T.V. like that...it proved that they really weren't coming back.
Tears came storming out of her eyes and were washed away by the lashing raindrops.
"First Mom and Matt, and then my friends betray me. I can't save all those people out there either! What use am I..."
Anger turned into powerful magic. She needed to hurt something, like the world had hurt her!
Will's hands lit up with a bright, pink energy. She screamed and overturned a table. A blast of energy shot out and set fire to a tree. She cried out in fury anguish and started destroying any area that was near her, anything she could possibly reach. Cornelia's words and the others' silent agreement was echoing in Will's head.
'She doesn't care about us! She doesn't care about the people out there! What kind of leader can't put aside her personal issues, and then get others killed for it! We don't need her.'
A raging fury burst out of her and shook the sky with illuminating light. Lightning struck several times and Will could hear some people screaming. Breathing very heavily, Will looke at her hands.
"What am I doing?" she asked herself as she sunk into the wet grass and deep mud of the Heatherfield park. She remembered that this is where she had first met Matt, and she shook in another fresh round of tears.
"I hate Candracar! I hate this stupid town and my freaking destiny that only seems to be killing me!" Will screamed into the rain.
There was a rustling in the trees and Will tightened her stance with her heart pounding.
"Who's there?" she called out.
Silence met her and she squinted, a small pang of fear etching through her body. Will turned around to walk out of there when she collided with another body and fell to the ground in surprise.
"Lumos." a dark voice said. A bulb of light shone on Will's face and she put her hand up to block it. She started moving back from the man in a way of escape, but felt her back bang into someone else's legs and she yelped.
Several other people shouted "Lumos," and were advancing toward her, trapping Will in a circle of blinding lights.
"Who- who are you?" she asked.
"Aw, the little girl is scared." a woman near her said.
"Shut up, Bella!" a man's voice exclaimed from across from Will.
"I'm not scared of anyone." Will said defiantly as she stood up off of the ground.
Her breath was caught in a knot in her throat and she gasped as she noticed, and recognized the people standing around her with lit sticks in their hands. These people wore the black robes and masks mentioned on the news, and they were the people who were there when Matt and her mother got killed.
"You!" Will yelled. "What do you want?"
"What do we want?" the man said with a chuckle. "We want you, Will."
Will sensed them moving a little closer uncomfortably. She turned back to the man that seemed to be the leader and squinted her eyes.
"Why?" she asked.
"We want to help you, Will. We know you've suffered from being used and betrayed. You can be taken in by a real family who will want you, and need you to help them, without backstabbing friends and heartbreak from family." he said silkily. Will shook her head.
"Why would I do that? Because of you-"
"Why, wouldn't you love revenge on the other Guardians, and on Phobos for killing your loved ones?" he continued. Will blinked in surprise and anger.
"He killed them!"
The man stood forward and lifted the mask from his face to reveal cold grey eyes and long, silvery blond hair.
"Our master has been very interested in you. He knows everything and sees everything that goes on in your life. It would be very foolish to refuse. But of course, you really have nowhere else to go, nobody else to turn to."
Will bit her lip and stared around her. Were they trying to force her into using her powers for them, which is what she knew they had sought her out for, or were they actually trying to...help her?
"The Dark Lord can make anything you want come true. He only asks for some help, and you will live the life you should have. And learn how to use your powers to their full potential. What is your choice?"
The other people in robes brandished their wands threateningly. There was really nowhere else to go, and she was afraid of what they would do to her if she refused. She wanted to be more powerful and feel like she belonged somewhere. Just like how she thought she had belonged in Heatherfield. Most of all, she wanted everyone to pay for what they had done to her!
"Okay." she answered quietly.
"Okay?" the woman named Bella said.
"Yeah, like you said." Her thoughts went back to everyone she loved being gone and her friends' hurtful words from earlier that day.
"I'm not needed here. I'm not wanted here, and I definitely don't want to be here. I've had it with this place and anywhere else would appreciate me more than here!" Will spoke louder with anger and she could swear she saw the man smile.
"Wonderful. The Dark Lord will be happy."
Lucius turned around after Will, surprised, was grabbed by the arm and spun around quickly and her and the other Death Eaters disappeared. He smiled and walked forward for a few seconds to enjoy his quick success.
"Yes, and now he will be happy that his plan to get Harry Potter will soon be in place."
And like the crack of a whip, he was gone.
I hope that was good. Stuff like the fight with the other Guardians and what happened to Susan and Matt will come later. There will be a lot of Harry Potter and a lot of W.i.t.c.h. so stay tuned!
