1. Chapter One

Title: Untitled

Author: Sage Vale

Ship: H/Hr, D/G, R/Lu, J/L, with Alias S/V, W/N, J/I

Disclaimer: The rights to the Harry Potter characters go to JKR, WB, and Disney (according to Mugglenet). The rights to
Alias and its character go to J.J. Abrams, ABC, and Bad Robot (I would absolutely love the rights to Michael Vartan
though. Yum.)

Summary: The American CIA sends four Junior Undercover agents to Hogwarts.

A/N: Yeah, I know the summary's not very explanatory, but what I have planned is really good, and there is mainly Harry
Potter, but the Alias characters play a big part in all of this. For Alias lovers, this story is also coming to AA,
SD-1, Allies, and FF.net. I may tweak it to incorporate more Alias, but I'm lazy, so I'm not making any promises. Also,
this is set in summer before sixth year, but I'm making it present day. Finally, the first few chapters will be mainly
Alias characters, but there will be more Harry Potter as we go on.

And now...Chapter One

Junior CIA Facility LA

June 10, 2005

“Agents Bristow, Vaughn, Weiss, and Santos. Please report to Director Kendall,” the intercom blared. Sydney Bristow and
Nadia Santos, who were half-sisters, groaned as they grabbed their gear and walked out of Combat Class. Halfway down the
hallway, they were met by their best friends, Eric Weiss and Michael Vaughn, who had come from Introduction to Weapons.

“Syd, what does Kendall need us for?” Vaughn asked, looking at his secret crush of....his entire life. Sydney shrugged
and looked at him worriedly.

“As long as it's not for the stunt you pulled on Hicks last week, I don't really care,” Vaughn and Weiss grinned
wickedly. Noah Hicks was Sydney's ex-boyfriend of 2 years, who had cheated on her with the school skank, Lauren Reed. As
payback, Vaughn and Weiss had trashed his dorm, which he shared with school playboy, Julian Sark. The rest of the walk
to Director Kendall's office was spent in silence. When they got there, they were greeted by not only Director Kendall,
but Jack Bristow, Irina Derevko (with black hair), and an old man with a freakishly long beard. Sydney and Nadia hugged
their mother.

“Mom, what are you doing here?” Sydney asked, taking a seat next to Vaughn. Almost everyone in the room could
practically see the feelings of the two agents stamped on their foreheads. Irina ignored her daughter's question as the
man with a long beard stepped forward when the four agents were comfortable.

“Hello. My name is Professor Albus Dumbledore. I am the headmaster at Hogwarts, which is a private school in Scotland,”
Professor Dumbledore stepped back, and Director Kendall stepped forward.

“Professor Dumbledore has brought a serious problem going on at his school. To stop it, we need four junior agents to go
undercover. You four have been chosen. You will be briefed on the plane to Scotland. All you need to pack is tolietries,
and a few outfits. Everything else will be provided for you when you arrive,” the agents nodded and began to stand up,
but Kendall waved them back down.

“Word of caution, agents. You will all be skeptical after you are briefed, but you need to keep in mind that anything is
possible. That is all,” the agents filed out silently. When the last one was out the door, Irina faced Kendall, eyes
blazing.

“What the hell are you doing to my daughters?” Irina demanded, already knowing the answer. Albus walked up to her and
put a hand on her arm.

“Patience, Andromeda. You know they would not have been chosen if they weren't ready,” Albus spoke confidently, even
though a seed of doubt was blossoming within him as well.

In Sydney and Nadia's dorm, the four agents were discussing the mission, making wild guesses about what they were about
to do.

TBC?

Yes I know. There was absolutely no Harry Potter in this chapter, except for Albus Dumbledore. Next chapter there will
be a little, but not much. There will be more we approach the Hogwarts school year though. For total dorks like me, did
anyone get my secret yet? I think it's a little easy, but only if you connect the dots. I only got my own idea a few
minutes ago. I'll wait until I get a good following before continuing with this story. I hope you like it.

3. A/N PLEASE DON'T HATE ME

Okay...show of hands: HOW MANY OF YOU WANT TO KILL ME? Really, I'd like to know. I thought this story was absolute crap
when i wrote it, but i thought it would be interesting.

Places You Can Find This Story (If for some, unexplainable reason one of these sites is not working):

Allies: Under Sage Vale

AllAlias: Under Sage Vale

SD-1: Under bossygurl4ever

HPFF.net: Under Sage Vale. If the link is screwy, try www.fanfictionworld.net

FF.net: Under Sage Vale

Portkey: Under Sage Vale

And I am so happy about all the support I have gotten from all these sites!!!

BTW, I would like to address one review I received from Earthpaw at FF.net: Err. Interesting. Looking forward to see
what happens. Why would Dumbledore want muggles help?

Answer: Maybe you should read certain parts of the story more closely….you'll find something interesting that will
answer your question.

Also, this IS NOT A CHAP. So many more of you will want to kill me when this is over. I am extremely pleased at all the
feedback, both good and bad, that STAWB has gotten. However, i am no closer to a new chap than i was when i first
started. I am extremely sorry about this, and this is hurting me very much.

But, until i have settled a few personal things, i will not be updating this story until further notice.

I will be updating HFH and SNY one more time before they are also paused.

I am extremely sorry for this inconvenience, and i can only hope that you will bear with me until the next update.
