HP Marvel Aquaman

This is a slightly alternate version of myself being reincarnated into a mix of Harry Potter and MCU with heightened intelligence and the powers of Aquaman. If you do not like the story just don't read it. The hateful comments really kill my desire to write. If you think you could do a better job, write your own version I would be happy to read it.

Walking in Tom the barkeep's eyes glossed over me as I was used to dealing with when under the effects of the charm. But when his eyes snapped back to look me in the face he must have recognized my skin color and age. With his eyes going wide I quickly held a finger to my lips indicating him to hush. 'Shit not even 2 seconds in Wizarding Britain and I'm noticed. At least he hasn't said anything yet.' I walked to the end of the bar nearer to the entrance to diagon alley and decided to have a whisper conversation with Tom.

"Some privacy if you would?" I indicate to do something so the other patrons don't notice or hear us. With a wide eye and a stiff nod Tom quickly sets some privacy charms.

"As I live and breath is that really you?" Tom asked worried the illusion may shatter.

"Yes." I whisper back. "But as you know there are some eyes in the Wizarding world that I would rather avoid if you can help me out with this...?"

"Right, right of course mums the word. What can I do for you anything you want on the house would only be right after what you've done for us." Tom conspicuously says.

"Well first off how did you know I was there?" I inquired trying to see the flaws in my charm work.

"Well I have a warding charm on the door you see makes me notice even if I usually wouldn't. Every store in the alley has one prevents theft." He explains.

"And how did you recognize me?" I ask assuming it is my race giving me away.

"Well you see, mostly white Wizards around here. Not that you are a dark wizard of course!" He tries to explain.

I laugh "Relax man I get it, whats your name you seem to already know mine?"

"I'm Tom Abbott, its an absolute pleasure to meet you."

"Likewise Tom. I can trust you with not mentioning that im in town?" I ask just to make sure he is explicitly clear I don't want people to know.

"Of course Arthur, I'd never tell a soul." He grins at me.

Seeing an opportunity I push for another favor. "Tom, I can call you Tom right?" Seeing him nod I carry on. "Well, while I can trust you I know few others I could say the same about. If I give you British pounds could I get myself a room here I'm nervous to be seen in the alley so I can't exchange currencies at the moment."

"Absolutely! Normally I would only take Wizarding money but for you im happy to make an exception." He says now grinning ear to ear happy to help the savior of the wizarding world.

"Perfect! I'll have to trouble you then." I say placing a neat stack of bills on the counter to him.

"Thats a thousand pounds Arthur. It won't cost more then a hundred for a week meals included lad." He says pushing back the stack.

"Right well I can't exchange any money without risking being spotted. If you could exchange the rest I would give you an extra hundred as compensation Tom." I implored the man using my cuteness to maximum effect.

"Sure my boy I can get that for you." He says with a smile. "Let me show you to your room."

He led me up a flight of stairs to a room that had a window that gave me my first look over Diagon alley. It was the same as in the movies much to my excitement and relief. "Thank you Tom." I said whole heartily.

"Of course Arthur, I really respected your parents they were incredibly brave." Tom said solemnly.

"Thanks Tom they really were. I go by Ryan by the way its my middle name. Less attention that way, I am going to contact a wizard I can trust if he comes through asking for Ryan you can send him up. No one I know calls me by Arthur so you will know something is up." I explain.

"Ah, smart I'll get you your coins by the end of the day." Tom says tapping his temple.

"Thanks again." I say to his back as he leaves. Looking out the window 'My first step into the Wizarding world.' Taking out my shark tooth and my dads wand I start a series of texts to my family.

[Made it to wizard Britain]

[Found fan of dad is helping me]

[Going to contact dads ally]

[Love and miss you all]

'On to my next order of business.' Putting away the tooth I concentrated on every happy memory with my family in this new life and got ready to once again see the prank that was played on me that I love so much. "Expecto Patronum"

A beautiful silver blue wisp was launched from my wand tip quickly condensing into the form of the shark that killed me. Taking a moment to think about dad and his matching charm. "Alistor Moody, I believe you knew my father I need your help. Respond with the last time you saw me so I know it's you. By the way I love the sticking charm as much as my dad." I then willed the patronus to protect mad eye Moody completing the message intent. 'Glad I figured out how that one worked it was great to wake up uncle D.D. with.

I sent one other patronus carrying a very important message to the lovegood house as well.

A few minutes later a silvery blue honey badger came snarling into my room. Swirling around me it stopped in front of me and said in the grinding of rocks voice that is Mad Eye Moody. "Talented little bugger are you? Last I saw you were swaddled in your mothers arms in a run down cabin. If you're a fake won't be too long until you're sitting in Azkaban with the rest the dark Wizards who got on my bad side. Now tell me where you are." The vicious-looking honey badger, that now I noticed is missing an eye, spun around me once more and faded into nothing.

'Well better to be prepared for an aggressive Moody.' I go over to my bag and unshrink eight 2L bottles. I set one on the table in the room with the cap off. The rest I casually roll under the bed in the room without even waving my hand. I then shut the curtains to the room making the room very dark and cast a wandless lumos to light the room sticking it to the ceiling. Finishing preparing for guests I summon the spirit of the tiger shark that took a chunk out of my ass.

"Alright Moody, just don't tell anyone who you are going to meet. I'd rather not have all the dark wizards in London up my ass. Nor the old fogey Dumbledore trying to convince me I need to do something for his greater good. I know my dad didn't trust him so I wont either nor did he offer us sanctuary while on the run. So, I'm at the Leaky ask Tom for Ryan." I said finishing off the spell and sitting on the edge of the bed. I dialed up my hearing and listened into the conversations in the pub.

Soon the door opened and the bar quieted down as one of the most feared aurors in Europe walked through with a clomping step. I could hear his eye rolling about as he walked up to Tom. "Ryan." Is all he said in a hushed whisper. Tom said nothing but must have looked in my direction because the eye stopped rolling and I knew it was transfixed on me. Deciding to be cheeky I waved at him through the floors and heard him stifle what I assume was a chuckle then growl heading up to my room.

Opening my door with no preamble Mad-eye Moody stared me down. If I wasn't superhuman he would be a highly intimidating sight. "Well close the door and set some privacy charms." I said not moving until he was moderately comfortable.

After he silently set some wards without taking his eyes off me he began to ask. "How does a ten year old raised in the muggle world walk into the Leaky Cauldron and send me a corporeal Patronus?"

Smiling back at him I laugh "Thats a good enough place to start. Well I had my father's books and his wand. That and I remember everything since I was born. Including the first time we met, you made a big impression actually being worried about security when we were being hunted."

Moody stared at me unblinking for what felt like a extremely awkward amount of time. If I didn't know better I would say he is trying to read my mind but he wasn't drowning and I felt no probe so I doubt it.

"Well?" I ask feeling exasperated at this point its like fight me or believe me bro let's move on.

"What do you want from me?" Alistor asks with his unnerving stare.

"A little help! Shit man, I know nobody here you're the only person my dad trusted that is still alive. I wouldn't have even called you right away if I didn't get noticed literally walking into this pub. I thought a little notice me not spell and I could do some shopping. I couldn't practice any potions at home. If im going to kill moldyshorts once and for all I need to know things I can't learn on my own."

"Why would you need to kill you-know-who don't you remember you already did?" Moody asks with a skeptical eye.

"Because I remember his shade flying out into the night when I destroyed his mortal form. Did Dumbles not tell you he is still alive?" I asked incredulously 'if you trust anyone with that knowledge its Mad-Eye Mutherfucking Moody! I mean what happens if you die old man! Oh shit he looks angry as fuck!'

Growling he says "Well I believe you are who you said you are now."

"Well thats good I know I just dropped a bomb on you. Sorry no-maj expression." I say to his confused look. "I know it's a lot to deal with but what do you think we should do?"

"Well get you trained for one. You clearly have talent not just anyone can do a corporeal Patronus. And no one can before even going to Hogwarts" He states in thought.

"Well do you have a spell that can make my skintone look different so I can walk out of here? Thats how Tom recognized me." I ask not wanting to hide my heritage but realizing the practicality of doing so.

"Get your stuff we are going to my home." He states.

I jump up "Seriously! Dope!" Screwing the bottles lid back on I tossed it behind me into the bag after shrinking it. Keeping my wand out the other bottles rolled out and I shrunk them as they hopped into the bag on their own. Putting my wand away with a flourish of my wrist I used minor telekinesis to hook it over my shoulder and turned and said "Ready!"

He looked at me wide eyed and said "You are going to be bad for my health." He waved his wand over me and said "Follow silently."

Looking at my hands I joked "Who's this cracka?" 'Well im not worried about the grand I gave to Tom better not mention it.'

I followed Moody silently as he walked us into diagon alley. I made sure not to get distracted by all the wizarding wares and followed. We walked to a designated area and he put one arm on my shoulder. I heard his eye spin around looking at every nearby wizard. I felt a gut wrenching feeling from my navel and felt my entire being pulled through a tube. It was like an extremely violent Rollercoaster and I loved it!

We popped out in a English village and walked. He was still holding my shoulder but I was just grinning and following along. We walked three blocks at a rapid pace for a guy with a bum leg. He looked around again and we popped off somewhere else. He continued this for about 20 minutes and we finally stopped infront of a house that looked a lot like the Dursley's from the movie. Honestly it was rather plain and I doubt if it is his real home. He was likely doing what my dad was while on the run. We walked in and he pointed to a couch "Sit." I did and a few minutes later he came out of the kitchen levitating a tray for tea. "Damn muggles never have the good stuff." I heard him Mutter under his breath.

He gestured to the tea and I picked up the cup. "Know any spells to see if someone has slipped you something?" I eye him suspiciously.

"Ha. Good on you lad. Let's see what you do without the spell you need." He says eyeing me.

I shrug tilting the cup as if I was drinking and control the liquid to roll across my hand and into my sleeve. Setting down the cup I look at him.

"Whats your name?" He asks.

"Arthur Ryan Curry. But I have already told you." I replied thinking he may have tried to dose me with veritaseurm.

"How did you get to London?" Him.

"I was born here." Me.

"How did you come back to London?" Him.

"Swam." Me

"You swam from Hawaii to London?" Him.

"No." Me

"Where did you swim from?" Him.

"Lisbon." Me.

"You swam from Portugal to England?" Him.

"Sim, that's yes in Portuguese by the way." Me.

"Did you drink the tea I gave you?" Him.

"Should have led with that one, but no. I have been telling the truth though." Me.

"Didn't figure that you did. Seemed way too confident after that first question." Him.

"Man subtle stuff like this is why I'm glad that I have you I wouldn't have learned this on my own I don't know how I should have reacted to that potion." I said putting my finger above the tea cup and pouring the freshly heated tea in. "So what do I get to learn first?"

"Well first I need to know what you are really capable of doing." He said.

"Alright should I start with magic?" At his nod I begin. "Wandless I have minor telekinesis down pat. Anything below 50 pounds I can manipulate for an hour or so. I can do anything from the standard book of spells grade one and any self care spell up to grade 3. Transfiguration is a bitch but I can do really small stuff. No animated to inanimate or the other way. With a wand anything from standard book of spells 1-7. Transfiguration anything from Emeric Switch's beginner through advanced transfiguration books. That includes inanimate to animated and minor golem creation. I have arthamancy and runes down up to grade 7 at Ilvermorny. I have some minor skills with enchanting." I demonstrate by pulling my board off my necklace and tossing it on the ground near us. It extends and hovers in place until I tap my necklace and it shrinks and attaches back. "I have theoretical knowledge of potions grades one through seven as well the same for herbology. That's about it."

"So you're telling me you basically taught yourself everything you would learn at Hogwarts before the age of 10 and you're actually capable of casting of those spells." He asks blown away.

"Tutu, my grandmother Tala, says im a genius and I know she likes to brag but I believe her." I say with a smug smile.

"Damn, if we didn't have a war to fight I would send you right to the ministry for your NEWTS. You are a Ravenclaw for sure." Moody slumps.

"No I'm a Gryffindor or Hufflepuff for sure." I state matter of factly.

"A puff like me eh? Why do you say that or gryff?" He asks genuinely curious.

"Well only a gryff would call one of the most dangerous wizards in Europe to his inn room. And I'd say puff because I'd let this whole Wizarding World burn if it meant them or my family." I state with determination.

"Ha reckless as a gryff and loyal as a puff! I'll make you a fighter yet!" Moody cackles.

Over the next few months we moved every 2 weeks. We always practiced constant vigilance after the first week he could no longer hit me even if I was dead asleep. After I explained my physical abilities to him he pushed me physically to the breaking point using overpowered cutting charms so they would actually break my skin. He used the charms that measure broom speed to find how fast I was on land and sea. On land I could run mach five consistently and max pace at mach 8 but there were sonic booms. In the water I could break mach 30 over 23000 mph. That's just about circumnavigating the globe in an hour. Suck it Amelia Earhart. But nothing beat teleportation, the best form of travel besides water if you ask me. I must have had a nack for apparition, maybe it was my perfect memory or maybe it was the lack of fear I had from splinching because it felt so fun to do. In my last life I worked at an amusement park as a teen and loved rollercoasters so much. The only downside of apparition was the amount of magic necessary to travel. It took a bunch of willpower to poke a hole in space and step through.

He taught me potions with a deft hand making all the theory make sense. Herbology wasn't his thing even as a puff but DADA there could be no one better as an instructor. He walked me through the fights he has been through every scar having a story. He demonstrated every move but with different spells and we mock battled every evening when I was the most worn out. He asked about my occlumency and I said "Give it a try at your own peril." He didn't look me in the eyes for two days after that. I explained to him that the theory comes from no-maj torture techniques he was impressed. He gave me the expert level of the transfiguration book at the end of the second week of December. He just said "Go home spend time with your family."

I was excited and gave him my gift as well another shark tooth texter. He was impressed by it and said well use these to find each other a week after new year. It was nice knowing I had someone who could text back not that I expected him to chat a bunch. Charming up and apparating to the coast I jumped from the shore 50 feet into the water guiding myself with my nautical sense I set myself a course for Panama. Arriving at the coast after a relaxing trip I pulled my board out and went full stealth mode. Anti-scent anti sound escape so I could still hear proper disillusionment that isn't taught to non aurors. I exited the water completely dry and cruised over the check points for the canal. Getting back into the water I went full speed straight home.

Seeing half my family on boards sitting in the water with crappy waves I decided to have some fun. Grabbing my board I generated a picture perfect wave and came sliding out of the pipe shouting "Aloha e kuʻu ʻohana nani!" (Hello my beautiful family) to massive cheers as everyone rode the wave in loving that Hawaiian weather.

Seeing Tutu and uncle Rock was great. I did notice I unconsciously grazed their surface thoughts to verify identities. But I only let that happen once. After a few hours when most were already in bed uncle Rock and I were sitting on the porch listening to the waves roll in. I told him all about the trip explaining the things I couldn't to the rest of the family. Telling him about how I got my album signed by the big players of NWA. Meeting the Williams' and transfiguring the court for them. Swimming to japan and the beautiful east Asian coast. The hills of New Zealand and the crouds in Thailand and Mumbai. The prank I played on the pirates that probably still have pink hair. Visiting Athens and camping in the Coliseum. All the amazing food, people and sights I saw. It felt heartwarming when I looked over to him and saw his eyes shining with happiness and pride.

I told him about how intense Moody is and he laughed when I did my impression of his "Constant vigilance!" I told him that tomorrow we are going straight to the gunker (gym bunker) so I can show him all the stuff I learned.

The next day Rock and I were standing in the bunker and I said don't blink and with a twist I appeared right infront of him. His girly scream was so funny I fell over laughing in that rare uncontrollable way. After sorting myself out I showed him how Moody taught me spell chains that could be used at insane speeds. Then I told him my stats for running and swimming he was throughly impressed. I told him about the types of potions that could be made and said if I ever have 6 months to dedicate to a potion I'll give him a bottle of Felix Felicis aka liquid luck. He just said "I knew I raised you right." with a wide grin.

On Christmas I texted Moody. I had made sure a movie would be playing that had come out 2 years prior at a movie theater in Birmingham. I told him to go to that no-maj movie theater and watch Die Hard. It took about an hour of convincing but he said he would check it out.

Christmas was great I gave everyone souvenirs from my trip. I got a NES from uncle Rock and a bunch of games. We would all play games or surf until the end of the week when Moody texted me.

[You have 3 hours to meet me at the leaky.]

[Say goodbye and get here.]

[I hate that you know how fast I can be :( ]

I said my goodbyes and headed back the way I came. When I got to Panama I just apparated to the other side of the canal and saved myself an hour on the board. I was in the leaky an hour after my frowny text. Charmed to look white I went to Tom and said "Its me Ryan how have you been Tom?" Suprise then understanding went through Tom's eyes.

"You did the opposite of running out on the bill last time I saw you I was a bit worried."Tom chided.

"Well I hope you keep the funds as compensation then it would only be right." I smile to him.

"Cheeky one you are. Keep it up and I'll be sure you give me another thousand pounds." He laughs menacingly.

We both have a laugh. "Is a room available my friend should be by to pick me up soon."

He nods and says a room number while we wave goodbye. A few minutes after I sent a text Moody comes in. "Show me HK." He says flatly.

I condense the moisture in the room to a small ball without moving. "Tell me how did John McClane get to California."

"An airplane. You are going to have to explain how that works. I've spent a lot of time on the muggle side of things so I have seen them but only in the sky and I can't get close to one fast enough on a broom." Moody says.

I snort "Sure, what did you think about Hans Gruber?" I ask standing up ready to leave.

"He made me think of your soon to be potions professor. I felt that if Snape could do an accent he would have played him better" Moody said in thought.

I had to full on emotionally suppress not to wig out. 'He just said Alan Rickman would have played Hans Gruber better!' I calmed down during the 20 minutes of side along apparating about the countryside. We stopped at a house in Surrey.

"From now until the end of May we are going to be working on power rather then speed. I've taught you spell chains that focus on rapid casting the opposite of what wizards like moldy do." Moody says.

"Well I have always felt a cap on the size of magic I can do I think it's because of my dads wand. It works for me but its not perfect." I reply.

"That is likely the case." Moody hums.

"Do you think Olivander's has wands with sea creatures parts? I think that will help in compatibility." I asked.

"We will go at the beginning of Summer. If you can increase your power with a wand that isn't compatible, then using a wand that you are good with will be that much further of a step-up in power." Moody says.

Moody pushed me hard until May. I went from being able to lift 180k tons to a solid 200k tons. I remember reading about the DCEU Aquaman could lift 580k tons as an adult. I felt it was good progress. I was glad Moody never stopped pushing me others would likely think 'Oh you are strong enough or fast enough to take out moldy just relax.' He would always say "It just takes 1 killing curse and its over." He was right I had no power of love killing curse reversal plot armor. Plus I had a bigger purple threat to concern myself with snakeface is just a warm up
