Author's Note: I am sorry that I have not up dated this in a while but I have been extremely sick. I have been in an out of the hospital, getting blood transfusions, getting tired, sick, and high off the medicines the doctores gave me. I was in the hospital for almost a month at one point for almost passing out because my hemoglobin was low, 4, when it should be 12 or higher. If I passed out, there would have been a high chance that I would have went into a coma. An off duty nurse who was in the vincinity was pissed off at my personal docter for allowing this to get that far. Sorry I am going off on a tangent, aren't I. If you reaaly want to know what happened just message me. I don't mind tellin people. So anyway, here is another, short, chapter. Hope you like.

Warnings: Character Bashing! Dumbledore, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny. Swearing! May have mentions of child abuse! A bit OOC! Ed never went to an alternate world in my story. Al has his body back, but Ed still has the automail right arm and left leg. Homunculi have all been destroyed, but others can still be made. Major AU!

Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to Fullmetal Alchemist nor Harry Potter, but I do own the Anime/Manga, movies and books. Please don't sue me.

I had a poll going on with who should go with Ed, what houses they would be in and what pairings there should be. I have already decided, from the poll, who will be going with Ed to Hogwarts. You'll find out when you read this chapter. The polls for houses and pairings are still ongoing.

The Fullmetal Alchemist characters speak German with a mix of Japanese while the Harry Potter characters speak English.

Key: From now on the characters there will be a key to identify what language the characters are speaking.

"Speak" - English from now on

"Speak" - German/Japanese

'Speak' - thoughts

Edward, Alphonse, and Roy, when he could get the chance, read through most of the books that the Headmaster had left them, when a sudden thought struck Al.

"How do we know if we can do magic or not?" He questioned, "The books the headmaster gave us state that alchemy is a classification of magic. So I assume that anyone who can use alchemy would also be able to perform magic. What do you guys think?"

It seemed the Headmaster had conveniently forgotten to tell them if they had any magical aptitude or not. The other two people in the room at the time stopped what they were doing and thought about this.

"I remember reading in one of these books that alchemy is a form of magic. There was a wizard by the name Nicolas Flamel who created the Philosophers stone using different principles then the ones we know because he had a more in depth understanding of alchemy because of magic." Mustang explained. "If this is true, and alchemy is another form of magic, then there is no reason why you, or any alchemist, shouldn't be able to perform some of these spells."

"Then it looks like I should start practicing." Ed smirked

"But don't you need a wand to perform magic?" Alphonse asked.

"I don't need to use anything to perform alchemy, maybe it is the same with plain magic and, anyway, I read that with enough practice that wizards can perform spells wandlessly and non-verbally."

Al nodded in understanding, "Maybe I'll practice with you."

August first came rolling around; the day Dumbledore decided to send someone to talk to them about Hogwarts and put down what classes the chosen person(s) decided on taking.

Mustang, Ed, and Alphonse waited in Mustang's office for their visitor. They were given no indication about who he would be sending. It frustrated them that the Headmaster was leaving them in the dark about so much of the mission. He didn't even tell them at what time this mysterious person was coming.

At 1:30 p.m., the door to Mustang's office opened and a man with black hair and a nose that looked like it was broken at one point in time, walked in. He sneered at the other three people in the room when Mustang gestured for him to come in and sit down.

"You must be the one that Mr. Dumbledore sent." Mustang ignored the sneer.

"Yes, though it wasn't willingly." The man crossed his arms and got more comfortable in the chair. "I am Severus Snape, Potions Master and Professor at Hogwarts. I teach the subtle science and exact art of potion making." Professor Snape said as a way of introduction. "I am here to list who is going to Hogwarts and what classes you wish to take. You will be placed in fifth year for all the main classes and will have to take a placement test for any extra classes you wish to take." He said dryly, believing that the students would most likely slack off anyway.

"Yes... well, has Mr. Dumbledore told you anything about why he wishes Amestris citizens to go to school at Hogwarts?" Mustang asked unsure how much information he should disclose and wander if he could get more information about this mission. He was starting to regret ever accepting it.

"The Headmaster informed all the teachers that the Amestris military was sending someone to pose as a student to look after Potter," He sneered at the name, "and make sure nothing happens to him this school year. He has also informed us that the candidate to go to the school was only a fifteen year old himself."

Mustang nodded, "Along with Edward Elric," he gestured to the blonde, who for once was on his best behavior, "I would like Alphonse Elric, Ed's younger brother to go with him." The younger blonde beamed at Ed and Mustang.

Snape nodded and reached into his robe and brought out a stack of papers handing equal amounts to the other three. "Here is a list of classes Hogwarts offers. Let me know if you have any questions."

Hogwarts Required O.W.L Classes Years 1-5, Optional N.E.W.T. Classes Years 6-7

Astronomy - Professor Sinstra

Charms - Professor Flitwick

Defense Against the Dark Arts - Professor _

Herbology - Professor Sprout

History of Magic - Professor Binns

Potions - Professor Snape

Transfiguration - Professor McGonagall

Hogwarts Elective O.W.L. Classes Years 3-5, N.E.W.T. Classes years 6-7

Ancient Runes - Professor Babbling

Arithmancy - Professor Vector

Care of Magical Creatures - Professor Hagrid

Divination - Professor Trelawney, Professor Firenze

Muggle Studies - Professor Burbage

Any other classes (i.e. Healing or Politics) that a student wishes to learn must be brought up with Head of House at beginning of school year.

Ed and Al whispered to each other as they read over the list, including Mustang in their decision. They seemed to come to an agreement before Mustang nodded and looked back up at Professor Snape. "I noticed that there is a Muggles Study class for wizards with no understanding of Muggles, but what about a magical studies class for Muggle raised wizards?"

Snape scowled at this, "This is the same question I have often posed the headmaster, but Dumbledore keeps on waving it away saying the kids would learn quickly enough on their own."

"Well that doesn't seem very fair." Alphonse murmured, but let it go for now.

"The papers mention something about extra classes, what exactly is that about?" Ed questioned.

Snape shifted a bit in his seat to get more comfortable, these were the kinds of questions he liked his students to ask. 'Maybe these two won't be total dunderheads.' Snape mused before answering, "If there is a specific field a student wishes to study, such as Healing, Potion making, wand making, anything of that sort, the Head of House is required to find a suitable teacher. If a teacher is part of the Hogwarts staff, then everything is fine, but if someone has to be found outside the school, then the money to pay for the lessons must come from the students."

The three other men took this all in. Alphonse furrowed his brows in thought, "Doesn't the Headmaster have a say in the lessons the students are taught?" Al was worried about not being able to learn everything that he wanted.

Severus blinked in surprise, before blanking his face, only allowing a small smirk to cross his lips. "The Headmaster is only allowed to hire the staff for the classes taught at Hogwarts. If a student wants extra teaching, then it is well in their rights to hire someone to do just that. I do believe the older addition of Hogwarts: A history has all the School charter and rules in it. Any other questions?"

"One more question before we give you our class choices." Ed sat on the edge of his seat; his whole body seemed to be buzzing with excitement to learn all he could. "Why is there a Defense Against the Dark Arts class yet there is no classes or mention in any of the books about the dark arts? How are we supposed to properly defend ourselves from something we know nothing about? And why do the books all say the Dark Arts are evil and can kill someone? I can think of a few ways to kill someone with the simple Levitation Charm."

There was no use hiding the shock on is face this time around, 'That was actually a very good question.' He shook his head lightly to regain himself. "Most of the Wizarding World believes there are two types of magic, Light and Dark. I am not sure if I am the right person to explain this to you. It would be best that you learn all you can when you travel to Diagon Alley."

The brothers nodded, figuring as much. "Alright, well here are the classes we would like to take;" Alphonse began, "We will be taking the required core classes along with Arithmancy and Ancient Runes. We will talk with our head of house when after we get sorted. We would like to learn more about this world so it would be easier to protest Mr. Potter."

Snape nodded and wrote all this down on a piece of paper. "Because of the age difference between you two," Snape looked at the two brothers, "You will most likely be put in different years."

Ed looked about ready to argue this, but thought better of it. He didn't want to start something and have Al stay behind in central as punishment.

"Well, if you have no more questions," Snape stood up to leave, giving them enough time to ask any more questions, "I will be taking my leave. Then I will be back on August fifteenth at noon to escort you to Diagon Alley. You can decide then whether you wish to rent a room until school starts or come back here. Good Day" He nodded when he walked out the room.
