Ok just for starters I'm going to say this is my first "official" proper fic, like I've written things before but not a lot and nothing really like this so... Be gentle? Obviously others commenting and critiquing work is how to get better, so that's fine. This is going to be a crossover of Fairytail (by Hiro Mashima) and Harry Potter (by J.K. Rowling). In this fic it will be the guild members in Hogwarts, no Harry or Ron, and no really main plot points from either show will happen( sorry if that's what you wanted). Also, I will be taking a decent amount of set-up and details Straight from the harry potter books, for the castle and other details (I obviously want it to be realistic to the series.) So if you see me quoting or paraphrasing things, then yeah. Don't think I'm stealing I don't own anything, duh!

I'm going to puke. Is what Gajeel Redfox thought as he laid sprawled across one of the trains benches; with eyes closed and limbs stretched, he was a sight to see. As he mentally debated how much trouble he'd be in for vomiting on the floor, he heard the door swoosh open. "Uhm... Excuse me?" The quiet female voice says, to no response. After a pregnant pause, the voice tries again, this time with clear and determined irritation; "I said Excuse me". Gajeel waited for a moment, realising that they probably weren't going to leave any time soon, so he groaned; "Ugh, What.". "All of the other train compartments are full, so I was wondering if I could sit here." She asks politely. After rudely staring at her in silence for a minute, he jerks his head towards the empty bench across from him. The girl quickly sits down and scootches towards the window- as if worried that he might change his mind.

After a brief moment of silence (accompanied by the occasional pained moan from Gajeel), the girl says "Are...are you okay? Do you have motion sickness?" Gajeel who was planning on spending the rest of the trip in silence, brushed her off grunting "Mind yer own business." "Well, this being my first time on a train, I prepared myself a potion to cure motion sickness, just in case. But I guess if you want me to "mind my business" she air quotes, I guess you wouldn't be interested." Upon hearing the words "cures motion sickness" Gajeel bolted up then hunched over in agony from the sudden movement. After glaring at her for another moment, clearly considering the offer he skeptically says "Why should I trust you?" Sighing as she rummages through her large shoulder bag she says "Eugh, do what you want, but the offer is still out there." she finishes by holding out a tiny cork sealed bottle. With another shift in the train causing his stomach to lurch, he grabs the bottle without a single thank you and downs the light blue liquid inside. "Uhm …. You're welcome?" she says awkwardly. Gajeel proceeded to sprawl back over the seat, closing his eyes.

Suddenly the train car door opens with a slam,and a blonde girl dragging what looked like a dead body (asides from the occasional moan) bursted in. "Sorry, we got kicked out of our compartment, because Someone threw up all over the floor." she finishes with a pointed look at the near unconscious boy. "Could we sit here? I think he's done" "Sure, I guess" the girl replies, moving to make room for them; since it was clear that Gajeel wasn't going to be moving anytime soon. "Oh! Thank goodness, this is the fifth train car I've tried." The blonde girl sits quickly, dragging the boy with her; the boy who she just noticed had pink hair. "Oh, um how rude of me, I'm Lucy, and this dead beat is Natsu." "Nice to meet you" the girl says with a smile, "I'm Levy, I'm not sure who what his name is." Levy finishes with a whisper. Lucy was about to comment, when the door slid open again, this time an older woman with a cart stood there. "Anything from the cart dearies?" the kindly woman said. Levy quickly shook her head knowing she had to preserve her money. Lucy on the other hand pushed Natsu off her and went to take a look. She bought a couple cauldron cakes and off the woman went down the hall. Lucy shut the door, and after a moment looked at Levy and said "here" holding out one of the cakes. "Oh, it's fine.. Thank you though." Levy quickly says, but Lucy is having none of it; "Take it, as a repayment for letting us sit here." Levy smiles a thanks as she takes the cake. It seemed that Lucy wanted to use the cake as a conversation starter, because on came the abundance of small talk questions; how old are you? Has your hair always been blue? Any siblings? And more. Levy found out that Lucy was an only child with a single father, also that she had only met Natsu at the train station, even though they seemed close.

Suddenly a voice echoed through the train car, interrupting Levy; "We will be reaching Hogwarts in five minutes. Please leave your luggage, it will be brought to the school separately." . Levy's heart began to race with nerves, and it was clear that Lucy with her slightly flushed face was experiencing the same feeling. "Almost there…. Huh.. Do you think we should wake him?" Lucy jerks her head towards Gajeels supposed sleeping form. "I guess…." Levy trails off as she hesitantly stands up approaching Gajeel. Leaning over and looking at his face with his still closed eyes, she had a great view of his piercings- which seemed to be mesmerized by the older boys strange piercings, she reached over to tap his shoulder- when suddenly his eyes shot open; startling her. Levy jumped back crashing into her seat; almost hitting Lucy. "Holy Crap!" she exclaimed while sailing backwards. "You've been awake this entire time?! Why didn't you say something!". Smirking as he sat up "You never asked Shrimp". Levy visibly bristled at the word shrimp. "If you were listening the entire time then you know I have a name, and that's definitely Not it." she replies hotly. "Tch, whatever you say Shorty." He says as he walks out of the compartment into a sea of students. "That's not it either!" she calls after him. Receiving many stares from passing people. As she felt her face burn from embarrassment she grabs for her bag muttering " Whatever, jerk.". Lucy gently touches her shoulder saying "Forget him Lev' lets just go." Nodding Levy helps Lucy drag the slowly recovering Natsu out of the train. Everyone pushed them along towards the door of the train, and into the cool night air. Then a loud booming voice cut into the quiet night "First years! First years! Get over here to the boats!" the voice came from a scraggly looking man with a torn cape and orange hair. Everyone followed him the man until they reached a vast dark lake. On the other side of the lake stood proud and tall; a magnificent castle. "There she is! Now, everyone into a boat, no more than four!" he shouted. After a moment of gazing at the castle the students started filing into boats, Levy, Lucy, and Natsu all together in one with a bored looking boy with dark hair. It was unfortunate for Natsu, the walk here had help him recover a bit from the train, but as soon as he stepped into the boat he slumped over onto Lucy uselessly. I wonder how that jerk is doing. Levy thought back to Gajeel and his motion sickness. "Good good! Everyone's in, now, Forward!". As soon as he said the last word the boats started gliding over the lake. Once the boat ride was over they walked towards the castle, with the man(Levy had heard his name was Gildarts) knocking on one of the gigantic castle doors.

Annnnnd I'm going to leave it here for now, and in the next chapter I will have the sorting and everything. Don't worry not all of the chapters will rely so much on the harry potter books, I just wanted a good setup for the first few chapters; and no I don't know how long this will be, or when I will be updating.
