I was talking to one of my best friends the other day. A good writer. He wanted me to take up and do the Harry Potter story he couldn't write because he never had the time to get to it.
I doubt I'll have the time to either, but if anyone wants to help me and make it a co-op fic, or take it altogether, any help would be appreciated.
Here's the plotline
During Harry Potter's fourth year at Hogwarts he gets a pleasent suprise. A childhood friend, Hiro Hikari, has come to his school, finally being transferred from the Japanese/American school for Battle Wizards. Being a battle mage, Hiro is soon looked upon by his peers with both amazement and contempt.
Things don't go much better when mysterious accidents start happening. Hiro's transfer papers are stolen, and before they can get replaced, his and Harry's name come out of the Goblet of Fire. Cloak wearing, staff-wielding battle mages from his old school start to hunt him, and worst of all, girls are forming a fan club for him.
He and Harry have to figure out who's trying to sabotage them, why battle mages are trying to kill him, while surviving the five challenges the Goblet of Fire has for them. Dragons, Broom Racing, Dueling, Saving a life, and a Maze, all leading to a final showdown.
Will the two friends be able to see the last setting sun of the school year alive?
That was the plot he had given to me. He also gave me instructions to Battle Mage and their versions of spells.
Battle Mages are much more powerful than Wizards in some aspects. They wield staffs made of ancient wood and the magical cores are twice as strong as their british counterparts. Battle Mages also have the advantage of a broader variety of spells. All they have to do is say the type of spell, imagine it in their head, and the staff will do the rest.
The weaknesses they have is that they are poor at potions since they will rarely use them. They concentrate on making that up with bigger firepower. They also tend to overcalculate things, which is bad against someone who tends to fire off random things and hope they hit.
One of the scenes he had planned out was Hiro dueling Viktor Krum. Krum had shot fireballs at Hiro, and Hiro shouted, 'reflect'. His staff glowed white, and using his staff as a baseball bat, he slammed all of Krum's fireballs back at him.
The most important thing he wanted me to do though, was make this a HarryxHermione story. He said Tonks would also be acceptable to be with Harry. As for Hiro, he said Cho, Fleur, or both.
Anybody feel up to helping me make this definite epic fic?
Here's the closest thing to a good picture of the Original Character as I could find.
This is the only other good picture.
