Chapter Text
Frisk and her adopted brother Asriel Dreemurr were at King’s Cross station. They were looking for their train, the magical Hogwarts Express on the platform 9 ¾. Frisk sighed in frustration and thought ‘How did we ever get picked for this?’
Frisk and Asriel had got their Hogwarts letters six weeks after Asriel broke the barrier and Frisk saved Asriel by splitting her soul into two souls and giving him one. There were side effects to this in the form of Frisk growing fangs, her hair changing to silver white and her eyes changing to pink.
Suddenly, they heard a very large man with a very large boy say “Look it’s one of those freaks. They should’ve just stayed in hell where they belong. That goes for that girl too.”
Asriel became angry enough to attack the man but Frisk held him back. He looked at her angrily and saw she was trying her best to stay calm.
“Leave it, bro. He’s not worth it.” Frisk said softly “None of them are.”
Asriel sighed and went back to helping Frisk find their train. It had been six weeks since monsters were reinstated in the human society and the monsters even found out about the magical society with the condition that they kept their mouths shut about the magicals while talking with the non magicals. Most humans respected and accepted the monsters back happily especially the children.
But there were other humans that still hated the monsters. These humans would try now and then to hurt monsters but the police and wizard police are always there to save the monsters in trouble. Frisk had also given Ambassador duties to her and Asriel’s father because she was too young for that now. Now Frisk and Asriel would have to focus on magic training if they could find the train.
“Ugh! I give up!” Frisk exclaimed in exasperation
Suddenly, they heard a plump looking woman say “Packed with muggles of course!”
Frisk and Asriel had heard that word so many times already in the magical world that they quickly grabbed their trunks and raced to the plump woman. Frisk tapped on the woman’s shoulder. The woman looked down and gave Frisk a small smile.
“Yes? Can I help you with something, my dear?” The woman asked
“Yes, please. My brother and I are trying to find the-.” Frisk started but the woman cut her off
“The platform? You two are just like Harry on his first day. It’s simple enough to do.” The woman said “All you have to do is walk straight at the wall in between platform’s nine and ten. Best to do it at a run if you’re nervous.”
“Thank you so much. Come on, Az.” Frisk said and Asriel followed her.
It was only then did the woman see Asriel properly and gasped. Asriel chuckled a bit before he and Frisk walked towards the wall. Frisk flinched a bit but there was no impact. They kept walking until they were on the platform. They saw a great shiny train that was there for the students to get on.
On their way on, Asriel and Frisk could hear people muttering about Asriel. ‘A monster!? At Hogwarts!?’ ‘I can’t believe it.’ ‘Has Dumbledore lost his marbles!?’
“Well, at least their not asking us to go back underground.” Asriel muttered to Frisk as they stored away their trunks above the open compartment they had found.
“Yeah…” Frisk said softly
“Something wrong, sis?” Asriel asked worriedly
“I’m just really glad that you’re here, Asriel.” Frisk said with a big smile “I couldn’t have imagined coming here on my own.”
“And I’m really glad that you were so determined to save me.” Asriel said and hugged Frisk tight “Thanks a lot, sis.”
“No problem, bro. I just couldn’t leave you down there.” Frisk said as she hugged him back “You, mom and dad are the only real family I ever had.”
“Nice to know you feel cared for finally.” Asriel said then glanced out the window “Hey, the trains moving.”
Frisk looked out the window and saw that the train was indeed moving out of the station. Frisk suggested that they play some chess to pass the time. After a while, a lady pushing a trolley full of food and sweets stopped at their compartment.
“Anything off the trolley, dears?” The woman asked kindly
Toriel had baked a pie for Frisk and Asriel which was already cut into small pieces for them to share but that didn’t stop Frisk from buying two boxes of Bertie Bott’s Every-Flavor Beans, some Cauldron Cakes, a few Pumpkin Pasties and some iced pumpkin juice. After thanking the woman, Frisk laid everything on their table as Asriel stared at her with amazement.
“Frisk, you do remember mom telling us to be thrifty with our money right?” Asriel asked curiously as Frisk bit into one of the pumpkin pasties.
“I know but I really want to try all this stuff.” Frisk said happily while holding out a pumpkin pasty for him to take “Come on, have some.”
Asriel’s hunger made him give in. They enjoyed everything except the boxes of Bertie Bott’s Every-Flavor Beans as Asriel managed to get a vomit flavored one.
“Okay, I better stop since you managed to get a vomit flavored one.” Frisk commented as she put her box down
“I can’t believe they meant every flavor.” Asriel groaned as he gulped down his pumpkin juice
“Well, it can talk.” A drawling voice said coldly
Asriel and Frisk looked up to see a blonde haired boy with two other larger boys standing behind him sneering at them. Frisk and Asriel thought the other two boys may have been the blonde boy’s body guards.
“Of course I can talk.” Asriel stated coldly
“Oh sorry.” The boy said while not sounding sorry at all “I thought that you monsters were not more intelligent than a donkey.”
“Well thought wrong didn’t you?” Asriel sneered
“I just wanted to stop by and tell you who your superior in school is.” The boy said “My name is Draco Malfoy. Hopefully you got that monster.”
Frisk couldn’t help but snigger at Malfoy’s last comment. Malfoy and the other two boys scowled at her.
“Sorry but I don’t see you as my superior right now.” Frisk commented
“Oh then perhaps I should let Crabbe and Goyle here deal with that smart mouth of yours.” Malfoy said coldly and the two boys cracked their knuckles
“You touch her and it will be the last thing you do.” Asriel said angrily
“Listen, um, Malfoy was it?” Frisk asked curiously “We may be first years but we know more monster magic than you do so unless you want your butt handed to you by two eleven year olds, I suggest you leave us alone.”
Malfoy and his two goons had no words for Frisk’s warning while Asriel laughed. Malfoy then sneered and left with Crabbe and Goyle following closely behind.
“Nice one, sis.” Asriel said
“It was nothing and are we there already?” Frisk asked as the train started slowing down “I thought the journey would be longer than this.”
“Yeah, me too but maybe- WOAH!” Asriel started but stopped abruptly as the train gave a lurch and he fell onto Frisk.
“Bro, you may be really light but please get off me.” Frisk said calmly as the lights turned off suddenly
“Yeah, sorry. Lost my footing there.” Asriel said softly as he sat back in his seat. “What do you think is happening?”
“I dunno bro.” Frisk said softly then they heard the train rattle “I think someone is getting on.”
Suddenly a hooded black figure came to their apartment. Frisk immediately felt the air around her get icy cold and from Asriel’s look the same had happened to him. Suddenly both Asriel and Frisk felt their souls brace themselves for an attack.
Asriel and Frisk felt something was wrong. They pulled out their wands and pointed them at the figure. At once the wands began glowing red then to the creature’ surprise, flames shot from the wands and hit the creature full force setting its cloak on fire. It then fled before Asriel and Frisk had any chance of doing something worse to it.
“That was close.” Asriel gasped as the train began moving again
“Yeah, thanks mom.” Frisk said to her wand
Frisk’s and Asriel’s wands were custom made by Olivander. The wood he used was from the tree at Home. The cores of the wands were even more special because Toriel had requested that the cores be her fur. Olivander was more than pleased to experiment with boss monster fur as a wand core so he set straight to work and the next day, the wands were ready.
“Yeah. Olivander did say that these wands would react more to our emotions.” Asriel said “That’s probably what happened just now.”
“I think we’re gonna be there soon.” Frisk said as she peered out the window “I think we should change now.”
“Sure.” Asriel said happily
After they had changed, the train began to slow and then came to a stop at the Hogsmeade station. They got off and saw a giant sized man calling for the first years to follow him.
“Firs’-years! Firs’-years over here!” The man called “Yer luggage will be taken to the school separately.”
The man led them through a steep, narrow path. Asriel and Frisk were the only ones chatting quietly to themselves. Finally the man called back to them.
“Yeh’ll get yer firs’ sight o’ Hogwarts in a sec,” The man called over his shoulder “jus’ round this bend here.”
Asriel’s jaw dropped when his eyes set on the school and Frisk couldn’t blame him. The school was massive. Perched atop a high mountain on the other side, its windows sparkling in the starry sky, was a vast castle with many turrets and towers.
“That place is huge!” Asriel exclaimed softly
“Yeah, dad would be jealous if he saw this castle.” Frisk said and Asriel giggled as he imagined his father’s face of shock at seeing a grander castle than his own
“No more’n four to a boat!” The man called, pointing to a fleet of little boats sitting in the water by the shore.
Nobody but Frisk seemed to want to get into a boat with Asriel but finally, a boy without a boat sat in their boat but so close to the edge that Frisk was scared that he might fall into the lake. Asriel just chuckled and thought that nobody would try anything on him if they were all so scared of him.
Suddenly the boats started moving slowly towards the castle. Frisk and Asriel still gawked at the beauty and the size of the school. After a while the boats passed a thick curtain of ivy that concealed an underground harbor where they all clambered out on to rocks and pebbles.
“Hey! You there!” The man called to Asriel as he checked the boats “Is this yours?”
The man was holding up a necklace which had the Delta Ruin as the locket. Frisk recognized it as the gift Toriel had made for them a few nights before they left.
“My locket! Thanks so much.” Asriel exclaimed taking the locket from the man while ignoring some of the giggling that some boys gave him
The man then led them all up a passageway in the rock then a flight of stone steps. Finally they stopped outside a huge oak door.
“Everyone here? Good” The man said then he knocked on the door three times
The door opened to reveal a tiny little man. The man greeted him as ‘Professor Flitwick’. Professor Flitwick led them up a magnificent marble staircase then into a small chamber.
“The Sorting ceremony will begin shortly. Please tidy yourselves up in any way you want. I will come and call you when we are ready.” Flitwick said then he left
“Are you nervous?” Asriel asked Frisk softly
“A little. You?” Frisk asked
Asriel gulped then said “A lot. Their going to call us in alphabetical order right?”
“Yep. See ya, Az.” Frisk said happily “Your definitely one of the first.”
Asriel was about to retort when Flitwick came back and asked them to follow him. When they came out of the room, a lot of muttering and pointing followed Asriel and Frisk as they walked with the rest of the group. Harry, Ron and Hermione watched Asriel and Frisk with growing curiosity.
“Harry, look. Their taking all the attention off you.” Ron said
“Great. I’m so glad everyone here has some other people to talk and whisper about.” Harry said happily
“They don’t look scary. The monster kid actually looks adorable.” Hermione commented
Meanwhile, Asriel and Frisk waited for their names to be called. Finally, Professor Flitwick called Asriel’s name.
“Dreemurr, Asriel!” Flitwick shouted for all to hear
As Asriel walked up to the stool where an ancient hat sat, he could hear the chatter die away and all eyes focus on him. He could hear Frisk using their soul bond to give him encouragement. Asriel walked calmly to the stool and sat on it while Flitwick put the hat on his head. It was so big that it covered his eyes too.
“Hmm… A monster, eh? You are going to be tricky to sort.” A voice said “You are very brave but are very kind and compassionate too. You are intelligent but you do not value knowledge a lot. Not Ravenclaw then. You like to help others. Maybe Huffelpuff. You detest evil and trickery people. Definitely not Slytherin. Both Godric and Helga would’ve liked you in their houses. One last question: How are you with flowers?”
Asriel suddenly had an image of Flowey shoot through his eyes. He shuddered and the hat seemed to get that.
“Not Huffelpuff then. Better be GRYFFINDOR!” the voice shouted the last word and he felt the hat being tugged off his head.
“Alright, go join your house.” Flitwick said happily
Asriel got off the stool and headed to the back of the hall where the Gryffindor table was. Most of the older Gryffindors were cheering as he approached. He sat down and quickly turned to watch the rest of the Sorting.
A few others became Gryffindors but didn’t want to sit beside Asriel which Asriel was happy for because he thought he would have to save a seat for Frisk, that is if she made it to Gryffindor. Finally it was Frisk turn to be sorted.
Asriel kept his fingers crossed as he didn’t want to be alone in this new school. The hat took even longer than it did with him. Finally the hat shouted Gryffindor. Asriel sighed with relief as Frisk practically ran to join him. When she sat down, she gave him a huge grin and the thumbs up.
Albus Dumbledore stood up after all the first years were seated. He announced two new teachers that would be teaching that year. One was the giant sized man whose name was Hagrid. Another was a shabby looking man whose name was Remus Lupin. After that he warned the students about the dementors that would be guarding the school and that students are not advised to get in the way of the dementors. After that, Dumbledore smiled at everyone and the feast began.
“So that’s what that thing was.” Frisk said softly “That was a dementor.”
“Dad told me about them once.” Asriel said as he suddenly remembered “He said that they were the only monsters that were never placed underground because the humans wanted to exploit their powers.”
“So there are evil monsters after all.” Frisk said sadly
“Duh.” Asriel said with a deadpanned expression “I thought you would have figured that out with Flowey being so evil.”
“At least Flowey was cute.” Frisk commented “He was cute when he wasn’t making all those ugly faces. A tiny flower with nice smile.”
“He, I mean, I tried to kill you Frisk and your saying that was cute.” Asriel whispered angrily
Frisk looked at Asriel and Asriel immediately felt the hurt he had caused Frisk through their bond. Asriel looked down to the floor in shame but Frisk lifted his head up again.
“I’m not hurt by what you said. Maybe I’m a bit weird thinking Flowey was a cute flower.” Frisk said “The thing that hurt me was you saying that you tried to kill me. I thought we went through this, you didn’t kill me, Flowey did.”
“I’m sorry. It’s just hard for me to accept your forgiveness so fast.” Asriel said softly “I mean, I did some weird things as a flower.”
“You’re doing weird things as a boss monster too.” Frisk said happily “Like for example: you bleat when I touch your ears-.”
“Frisk-.” Asriel muttered turning red
“-you drool when mom says she’s going to make snail pie-.” Frisk continued
“Frisk, stop.” Asriel said softly
“-and finally you shed a lot.” Frisk finished dramatically
“I hate you, Frisk Dreemurr.” Asriel sighed “I hate you.”
“And I love you too, Azzie.” Frisk said happily
The rest of the feast was perfect. Asriel and Frisk ate to their hearts content and had deserts that Toriel definitely wouldn’t approve of. Finally it was time to head up to bed.
“First years follow me please. I am Head Boy.” A boy named Percy said
Percy led them up a lot of staircases and through some corridors until they reached a portrait of a very fat looking lady.
“Now all of you must remember this password to enter the common room. The password is ‘Fortuna Major’.” Percy said and the painting swung open to reaveal a cozy looking spiral room.
“Girls dormitories are to the right and the boys to the left. You will find that all of your belongings have already been brought up for you.” Percy said
As the first began to head to their respected rooms, Asriel and Frisk exchanged a quick hug and said goodnight to each other before heading up themselves. It would be a long day of learning for them tomorrow.
