So this is my first shot at a Torchwood/Harry Potter cross over. I hope you like it.
DISCLAIMER; I own nothing.
"I think it went this way." Tosh said looking at the screen that she was holding in her left hand as she pointed down an alley with her other.
"If only it stopped changing it's appearance it would be so much easier to locate."
"It's a shape shifter Gwen what do you expect it to do."
"That's not what I meant Owen, do you always have to be such an arrogant wanker." Gwen shouted at him.
"As a matter of fact I do." He replied smugly.
"Anyway children if we could just keep the arguing to a minimum I had one hell of a night last night." He said annoyed, why did they always have to turn everything into an argument. They stopped talking. "Thank you."
"Take it the retconning didn't go too well last night then. Maybe if you didn't always treat it like your on a date..." Owen retorted.
I do not treat it like a date." Jack replied defensively.
"Oh okay well what happened."
"I took her out for a drink and we talked got a little drunk and she realised I'd slipped her something slapped me then yelled at me for over an hour until the sedative kicked in." He told them.
"Liked I said it was a date." Owen repeated. Whilst they were arguing they failed to notice a brown haired girl step out of the shadows she was watching them with an amused expression on her face.
"Technically speaking if you wanted my opinion. Where I come from if you take a girl out to a bar, buy her a drink, slip a little something in it to make a bit easier to handle, then she finds out and screams at you and calls you a bastard well, it kind of constitutes as a date."
"Well no offense darling but nobody asked your opinion." Owen said looking over Jack's shoulder towards the girl causing Jack to turn around to face her.
"Hermione... I..." Jack stammered.
"Jack, you alright?" Tosh asked concerned.
"You know Jack a girl travels over 400 miles just to say hello and she doesn't even get a hug, I'm hurt." She said trying to look annoyed. Jack came to his senses and quickly walked over to her and picked her up in a bone crushing hug and spun her around. "Jack Harkness put me down right now." She screamed. He put her down so she was facing him.
"You travelled 400 miles?" He said raising his eyebrow at her.
"Well I kind of apparated but its the thought that counts right?" Hermione laughed.
"That's cheating." He said hugging her again.
"Actually it's magic." She laughed as she pulled away from him. "Anyway Jack still shagging anything with a post code." She joked causing the rest of the team to start laughing.
"Yeah shame you ain't got one." he retorted pushing her shoulder back playfully.
"Didn't you hear I am settled now live in a house and everything, though technically it still doesn't have a postcode so I wouldn't get your hopes up." She sighed dramatically.
"What happened?" He asked seriously.
"He didn't abandon me if that's what you mean. I got called back by the order they had another mission for me." Hermione explained to him.
"I thought the war had ended."
"It has but there's still some loose ends to tie up. I've been sent here to find someone."
"In Cardiff?"
"Excuse me but can we finish this little reunion later, maybe you forgot Jack but we have an alien to catch." Gwen said sarcastically causing Hermione to burst out laughing. "What's so funny."
"That wasn't an alien." Hermione stated.
"No it was I no it might be a lot to take in sweetheart but aliens do exist." Gwen said in a patronising tone with a very fake smile on her face. This only made Hermione laugh harder, she was now in hysterics having to hold onto a wall to keep herself upright saying things like 'aliens' and 'exist' between her fits of giggles. Jack started to laugh as well. Gwen glanced at Tosh and Owen confused. "They really do exist tell her." After about five minutes Hermione had managed to stop laughing and turned to look at Gwen.
"I know they exist sweetheart, but like I said before that wasn't an alien it was a boggart. It's a creature that changes into the one thing that scares you the most that's why you lot probably thought it was a shape shifter." She told them.
"A what?" Tosh askd intrigued.
"A boggart, it's a magical creature I was just dealing with it but then you lot come blundering in."
"Torchwood don't blunder 'Mione."
"Hang on did you say magical." Gwen asked.
"I might have done. So Jack, you gonna introduce me properly to the team that you never stopped talking about for a year and a half."
"Funny he hasn't mentioned you once." Gwen said with a hint of sarcasm.
"You know I imagined that you'd be a lot prettier." Hermione said bluntly. Gwen opened her mouth to retaliate but Jack cut across her.
"Everyone this is Hermione Granger, Mione this is Toshiko Sato, Owen Harper." Owen coughed at this and Jack rolled his eyes. "Sorry doctor Owen Harper and Gwen Cooper."
"I thought there was five of you."
"There is he's back in the hub." Hermione nodded then looked at her watch.
"Well it was nice to catch up but I really should be going it's getting late. It was nice to meet you all." She went over to Jack hugged him kissed him on the cheek and then turned to leave.
"Your not leaving honey, you only just got here." Jack whined at her.
"I have to report to the order."
"At least stay the night here you look like you haven't slept in days, you can go back in the morning."
"I checked out my hotel this morning I have nowhere to stay and they'll be expecting me. " Jack threw his mobile at her. "What's this for?"
"Call whoever it is you need to tell them your staying with a very old, but great looking friend."
"Don't flatter yourself Harkness." Hermione giggled.
"I like her." Owen laughed earning a glare from Gwen and Jack.
"Don't even think about it." Jack said as he pointed his finger at Owen. "So you coming then?" He asked indicating towards a big black vehicle.
"You know I'd love to Jack, but..." He walked over to her and put his arm around her shoulder and walked her over to the SUV.
"Well that settles it then honey. We have so much catching up to do." Before she knew it she was being pushed into the the back of the SUV, she tried to get out the other side but Owen was climbing in with a smug grin on his face. She turned around to find Tosh sat at her other side. "Oh and you might want to put your seat belt on, remember last time." He laughed as she quickly fastened up her belt. "You gonna use that." Jack asked from the drivers seat pointing at the phone in her hand.
"Oh yeah sorry." She dialled the number then lifted the phone to her ear. She knew better than to argue with Jack when he'd got an idea into his head, she'd never win. She decided that one night wouldn't hurt.
"Hi Harry."
"Hey Hermione, you okay you don't normally phone this late." His voice sounded concerned.
"I'm fine how many times do I have to tell you not to worry." She said smiling slightly.
"I can't help it. Mrs Weasley was wondering what time you were going to be home."
"Well that's what I was callling for actually. I'm not coming home tonight."
"Why not your not in any danger are you?"
"Like I said before I'm fine. I just ran into someone I haven't seen in over a year I'll be back in the morning." She explained.
"Do I know her." He asked.
"No you don't know who my friend is." She replied.
"Where are you staying."
"I'm staying at my friends place."
"It's a guy isn't it."
"Is it that obvious."
"Well the fact that you kept using the words 'my friend' instead of an actual name kind of gave it away." he laughed. "He's not an ex is he."
"God no." She exclaimed. "Like I said 'friend'."
"Just checking. What should I tell Ron if he asks, which you know he will."
"Just tell him I'll see him tomorrow. Look if I tell him who I'm with he'll just get, well you know how he gets. It's complicated, I'll explain everything later I can't right now.. I've got to go Harry. Bye."
"Bye."
"Everything okay honey." Jack asked looking at her through the rear view mirror.
"Yeah just great." She said looking out of the window. Trying to get her bearings they'd been driving for a good 10 minutes and we're heading towards the city centre. The rest of the team were chatting quietly between themselves. Jack pulled the SUV over and Hermione realised where they were. "Wow a secret organisation hidden under a well known British landmark - how original." She laughed as Jack helped her out of the SUV.
Well that was chapter 1. Please review and let me know what you think. Reviews make the world a happier place!
