King of Bandit
Chapter 1
The New King
It all started with a stupid prophesy. That was right! Prophesies were
stupid, and anyone who said otherwise was stupider. The fortune wasn't
very good, for two children anyway. It told of a child that would be born
at the end of July with the power Voldemort, 'the Greatest Dark Wizard
in a century', does not know, and that the child would be the only being
able to destroy him, so it was pretty stupid, and anyone who believed in
crap like it should have been shot to save the world from their stupidity.
Yep, the 'light' was stupid enough to believe that they should rest their
lives in the innocence of a child's 'power'.
There were three magical children born at the end of July. Well, it didn't
seem to cross the wonderful people of the light to check the non-magical
world for children of magic, or anywhere outside of the United Kingdom
because they were that arrogant and even more ignorant or they would
have found a further 376 children who were born at the end of July.
However, out of those 376 children including those in the UK, only five
sets of parents had faced the Dark Lord and lived to tell the tell, three of
those parent-sets didn't live in the UK, and they were unimportant
anyway. You see the prophesy got really dicey when you knew that
Voldemort wasn't the only self-proclaimed 'Dark Lord' on the planet,
likely not even the strongest.
The prophesy never actually mentioned Voldemort by name, but the
'Great' leader of the 'light' Albus Dumbledore, Voldemort's greatest enemy
heard the prophesy so of course he came to that conclusion, and honestly
many would have too.
But there were other 'Dark Lords', and there were other parents of the
376 children who had survived one: nineteen to be exact; so technically
there were twenty four possible candidates for 'A' 'Dark Lords' downfall.
It was just unfortunate that Voldemort was the only 'supreme overlord'
wanabee who heard about the prophecy. There was a choice of three
children. Neville Longbottom was an only child. He was a pureblood,
living with his mother and father. Though, Voldemort prised purebloods
as superior to half-bloods or muggle-borns, he chose to attack the half-
blood twins.
Harry Potter and his slightly younger sister Rosette were like Neville
were only fifteen months old at the time of the attack. Voldemort would
never have admitted it, but he was a half-blood, so saw something; he
was a threat, so too could they be, and he really hated their mother, Lily
Potter for actually capturing Bellatrix that one time, and somehow
breaking her as she returned, different, content even.
The Potter's and Longbottom's had been placed into hiding, under the
watchful eyes of Albus Dumbledore when he wasn't watching Severus
Snape and wondering why he had so many pets, but shrugged that off as
unimportant after a while as they were all at least male, so the school
wouldn't have to worry about hundreds of chickens, dogs, goats, and pigs
running around his school; as headmaster-that would not do.
It was strange how fate could be a mean girl! That frightful night on New
Hallows Eve was not the peaceful night where supernatural D-bags hung
up their evil and throw a creepy party where he would make all his
Death Eaters feel too uncomfortable to enjoy themselves.
No – that night Voldemort struck Godric's Hollow, home of the Potter
family, afraid a wee little baby was going to grow up to murder him
someday all because an old crackpot said so in a weird and creepy voice,
but maybe that was what sold it for him.
Now any sensible couple hiding from the D-bag of D-bags would have
used themselves as 'SECRET KEEPERS' for the Fidelius charm, or if they
had magical powers, ran the hell away, moved to the mood, something
like that, but no such intellect when someone was around. Albus
Dumbledore was supposed the clever old man you could go to in crisis
and he would know how to get you killed, or nearly killed at least.
He thought that running away where there were none of Voldemort's
Death eaters, or Voldemort would be too dangerous. Therefore they
decided to use Sirius Black, James Potters' best friend as the Secret
Keeper to Dumbledore's old family home in Godric's Hollow. Sirius was
even the best man at the Potters' wedding.
That however did not exactly happen, because Sirius knew all too well
that everyone knew he was going to be secret keeper. He at least had
some brains, the Potter's too as they agreed, but it was a shame they
chose to trust the wrong man.
They chose Peter Pettigrew. Though the reasoning was sound, it was a
shame they didn't count on the weak man's cowardice to have kicked in,
and that he was a bad guy. You see Pettigrew was also a close friend of
the Potter's.
However, he was considered a joke of a wizard, therefore in theory no
one in his or her right mind would expect him to be the true Secret
Keeper. That was a grave mistake. Pettigrew had already betrayed the
'light' and was already Voldemort's whipping boy.
That day changed the Potters' lives forever. The Dark Lord Voldemort
went to Godric's Hollow, knocked out James and Lily Potter. He was
going to kill them first, but he was inspired on the thought of how they
would look watching their children's limp, dead bodies being toyed with.
He went upstairs in the small cottage house and into Harry and Rosette's
bedroom, discovering the raven-haired boy and red-haired girl in their
crib, looking up at him.
Harry was standing, his eyes a piercing emerald green colour like his
mothers, and ironically the curse of death. Rose was sitting playing with
a doll, her eyes hazel like her fathers. Her gaze turned back to her toy.
Harry watched as Voldemort fired his deathly Killing Curse at him.
However, he should have probably stayed at home as a weird shield of
runes blazed up in a bright light that was almost blinding. Then he heard
the deep and powerful roar. The room exploded outwards, glass
shattering, and the walls burning, bursting into flame of blue, green, and
black.
He could see through the light into the symbols of colours like the
reflection of a purl, pressure of magic burnt through the room, and tore
the outside wall down, melting it away in emerald flames.
Then he was gone. He was dead, vaporised by his own stupidity. He
never even saw what it looked like behind the runes. He was torn from
his body and evicted from the Potter's home by a small child.
The light faded and little Harry fell to his knees, naked with burned
covering his body, but they were healing instantly. His little sister had
whimpered as she looked to see whether her big brother was okay, but
other than a small cut on her forehead she was doing well.
However, soon Dumbledore came, and Harry got pushed to the side as he
declared Rosette Potter, the Girl-Who-Lived because she had been
marked. He didn't see that sometimes marks were far deeper than a silly
little cut on someone's forehead, but maybe there was something too
that, as nobody saw Rosette's little eye blink from the unearthly glow
they sported, to her regular hazel.
Nobody even gave Harry a second glance as they began their praising
and worshiping of his sister. Dumbledore did not consider Harry as their
savoir, he just took one look at Rose's scar, and that was it. She was the
girl-who-lived.
He wouldn't have been surprised if everyone believed Dumbledore if he
said that a bird crapping on you was good luck. How was that good luck?
A bird had just crapped on you!
Fifteen years later…
Harry sat, half bored as the train moved. He would stand at just six foot,
but he slouched in his seat, not really doing much of anything. He wore
black combat trousers with a black sleeveless tee shirt underneath is
beige jacket, with brown walking boots.
His raven black hair was cut short, spiking out to the front, longer on top,
while the sides were slightly shorter. His eyes were a brilliant shade of
green, like emeralds that caught the light just right, which seemed to
capture most girls' attention straight away.
He had not long since turned sixteen, and had been travelling alone…
well nearly always alone for the past year, since his grandfather passed
away. But Harry had learnt more than he ever believed possible in the
short time they spent together.
It had been a bit scary, and daunting, but he had magical powers, and the
magical world viewed things different compared with the muggles. So, he
could get away with being a 'minor' on his own. Though, he had plenty of
people he could go to. He wanted to follow in 'his' footsteps and find his
own path, just like he did all those years back when he was a kid.
He had grown good at tricks, and even gained an aptitude for sleight of
hand, or using his magical talents to give people the slip, or other things
beside. His best friend, dubbed him the King of Bandits without knowing
the half of it at the time, and it had kind of stuck as a running joke, with
a twist of mock these days, ever since.
Though he travelled a lot, he had always wanted to settle a little more
when he was younger, but that wasn't his grandpa. His family travelled a
lot, searching for that great score from the ancient world. Something so
magnificent to just take, not because they needed it, or the money it
could fetch on the Black Market, but just to prove they could.
Harry King had learnt a lot on his journeys, and been to many different
places around the world he knew he never would have seen staying with
'them'. His family by blood, but he didn't think he could stay mad at his
sister for long; he didn't have it in him as she was just a child who knew
no better at the time, and maybe she had grown up.
To his 'real' family he had been nothing but a big disappointment. That
was why he ran away from home, fleeing the unfairness of it; the way
they treated 'her' better than him, and he just could not hack it.
He had been four at the time, and in his four-year-old little head, he felt
that running away was the only way. He knew apart of him only did it to
get the attention. If they realised he had gone fast enough they could
have easily found him. He did not know how long it took them to realise
he had ran, but the thought made him cringe.
It had been scary when he was caught stealing by the old man. He had
never seen him before in his life, and he was a muggle (non-magical
person). However, the man knew of magic. He had been waiting for
Harry. He didn't care that Harry was stealing. It was odd to have
someone be proud of him for something that was supposed to be wrong.
"Are we there yet?"
Harry was startled from his retrieve by a sizzling hiss of a voice. It came
from within his coat, sticking its small and slender black head out. It had
twin red strips down each side of its body. It was a long thin snake
wrapped around his neck and shoulders twice to stay hidden in his
jacket. He had fangs and a hissing little tongue flickering out. He wasn't
the most dangerous of snakes, he was the equivalent of a magical adder
when it came to deadliness, though he would like to say he was more
deadly, he did have his uses such as invisibility, and people tended to not
notice him, except Harry, probably because he was a speaker. Anyway,
the snake's invisibility didn't last long, and he could slither up vertical
surfaces.
"Not yet, Kir," the young man hissed back. He had met his friend a few
years back. He hadn't had a name then, but Harry offered him one, Kir,
named after his grandfathers' old friend; a magical talking bird that
turned into a canon.
Kir couldn't' actually speak human, but he had learned to understand it,
but Harry was speaking his language, parseltongue. It was a genetic
magical trait as far as Harry could figure. He hadn't known who's blood
the gift came from, but it was nice to be able to speak to his friend.
Wizards in the Western world believed that snake speakers were so rare
and evil, but they weren't that rare, and they weren't feared as evil in the
East, and even in the State, Canada, and North America.
"Come on, just do that jumping thing and presto!" the snake complained
and begged hopefully, and if he had human lips would have been
pouting. "We've been on this damn train for hours now."
Harry chuckled, rolling his eyes amused with his friends' inpatients. The
snake seemed to love Complaining.
"It's only been two and half hours... we should be in Calais… in," Harry
lifted his left sleeve looking at his watch, which was on a thick leather
strap with a silver watch face. "... about twenty minutes," he said with a
small grin. "You'll miss the world passing us by if we just jump
everywhere like that, and I need some rest from the last few jumps
anyway!"
Kir sighed dramatically. "This is so not fun. I hate riding the train… you
could have gotten us to the UK anyway you wanted; jumping, portkey,
even flying horse-!"
"They're called pegasus!" Harry interrupted while laughing, and thankful
that their carriage was void of any other passengers to stare at him
hissing away with a snake.
The snake looked at him, shaking his head in disapproval. "I don't really
care what you call a pony with wings!"
"Well first I wouldn't call them ponies with wings unless you want to be
trampled to death!" he retorted, "You abilities don't fool every creature
you meet!"
Kir sighed, rolling his little black eyes. "Well I'm going back to sleep, try
not to get into trouble… well at least until after you check into an inn
where you can leave me to the peace and quiet for a while."
Harry sighed as he sat back while Kir went back to sleep. The world he
used to belong to was so much more different to the one he belonged to
now. So much so, he was not completely sure the wizards and witches
even knew about it.
He was very much aware most creatures or beings that lived in the
magical world were blind to the rest of the planet. However, knew that
was not completely their fault, but mostly the purebloods fault, and the
magical world's governments for believing they were superior, when in
fact, they were far from better to the outside world.
While the scientific, or muggle world as witches and wizards called it
moved on and advanced, the wizarding world stayed behind the times,
almost living in the dark ages. They had so much power, yet they chose
to waste it, and stay how they were, instead of advancing and bettering
themselves. He had never understood that no matter how many times his
grandpa told him it just seemed stupid and went right over his head.
"What you have to realise about wizards Harry," his grandpa's words rang in
his head, a memory of the past. "Is most wizards are ruled by their fear,
ignorance, or arrogance, sometimes all three." The raven-haired eight-year-old
boy just nodded in fake understanding as the old man continued his weird
ramblings.
"They either fear the muggle world," the old man continued ",– fear them
finding them because of muggle creations… or they are arrogant and so very
ignorant they don't look where they're going, but just stumble there, not
realising that was where they were at the start of their journey. Lots believe in
ancient traditions, and lore's, and that status of one's blood makes you
superior."
"Huh? But that's silly grandpa," Harry remembered himself saying with a
look of innocent confusion, and smiled thinking about it. "I love muggle
things. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't watch my early morning
cartoons." His grandpa just laughed at him in amusement.
Harry shook his head amused about that conversation. He doubted he
would ever understand the wizarding community.
He sighed, shaking his head as he looked out of the window, watching
the French countryside fly by. He was pretty sure they should be nearing
Calais, and then it was just a hop and skip to the UK, if he felt like
jumping, but he already had open tickets for the ferry so it seemed like it
would be a waste not using them.
He did prefer to see the world and meet people, so teleporting around
was a no-no for an adventurous spirit like his. Well, unless he had no
choice in the matter, like a quick escape, but he couldn't believe how
much the magical world warded against teleportation in the muggle
world. It was crazy in some cities having to navigate around them.
It was impossible to get a ward map in such dark times, well there were a
few 'Dark Lords' around, or whatever it was they called themselves in
other countries. He had gotten into a fight with some guy calling himself
the Nightmare Shogun in Japan – well that was his name translated into
English.
He had started bothering so seriously disturbed magical school girls who
were not equipped to deal with an actual threat. The man just liked to
talk too much about how he and his men were going to abuse the
terrified girls and keep them as 'toys' to 'relieve stress'.
Harry liked to relieve stress too, but he could go out and find cute girls so
he stopped this 'Nightmare Shogun'. It was anticlimactic. The guy liked to
monologue more than the schoolgirls. Harry just ran him through with
his blade, and the 'Nightmare Ninja', in other words his minions ran
away.
Harry set them up with some contacts he got from some friends, just in
case they needed help, and they each took his number, just in case. He
was a good guy and did his part to help out the citizens of Tokyo, so they
could sleep soundly, and he liked rescuing damsels in distress. Sure he
never got into their panties (wasn't their long enough and they were all
shy, and kind of lovesick for their new hero).
He shrugged that thought off with a smile. It was kind of amusing though
actually coming across such a weenie of a 'Dark Lord'. He frowned as he
knew from experience that not all of them were powerless frauds. He
wasn't just thinking about Voldemort either.
"Maybe I should settle down for a while," he muttered to himself
thoughtfully. "Make some new friends, learn some sorcery?" he said in
wonder. He hadn't hung around many magical people since he went on
his trip of self-discovery, so it sounded like a plan, and sorcery was a
subject that he lacked in.
Sure, he could conjure the odd flower without a wand or staff even, but
that was just because he needed that trick to impress the pretty young
ladies, and he would say he had gotten quite good at that.
However, his main companions had been muggles all the way,
completely oblivious to any mystical realms hidden upon the Earth, some
of which were blatantly obvious if you looked hard enough. You really
couldn't have missed that stuff in New York a few weeks back. He had
been glad he had been the other side of the planet. He still wasn't sure
what that was about and nobody he knew could seem to get any answers.
It had to make him wonder sometimes, as even the 'magical'-world didn't
see it, or maybe they chose not to, who really knew? But then they were
crazy people who liked living, suffocated in their own little bubbles of
ignorance.
Frowning was becoming a habit as he pulled out his copy of the French
newspaper from his jacket, reading it over. Apparently, the UK was that
news worthy. They had loads of 'unexplained' deaths happening all the
time, muggle and sorcerer. Then that earthquake last week, and that
bridge collapsed, and the hurricane destroying a whole town, so with
that thing in New York some muggle crackpots were saying it was the
end of the world.
But then, maybe it was the end of the world, so he figured he should find
a cute girl to have some fun with just in case. Then if the world wasn't
ending, he would be happy to know he got lucky and had plenty more
time to get lucky until some idiot finally did destroy the world.
He read through, between the lines about; odd men wearing black robes
and masks having been found brutalised. So some people were fighting
back, and it was not the wimps in the magical world, or should he call it
wizarding world, or witchy world – well, the second would bug them
most, so that it was, in front of them at least.
This whole mess with Voldemort's return was partially why he was
returning, because he couldn't stand letting these morons get their own
way. Voldemort was on his 'yes it's okay to call this murder' list. That
piece of crap royally screwed up his relationship with his parents. He just
hoped that after he left that at least his mother took parenting Rosette
seriously.
Since Voldemort's return a few months ago, he couldn't get a break
(which was another reason to pay the UK a visit. They were getting on
his last nerve). Wizards and witches of the not quite-dark (delusional
nutter's), dark, and dark and evil variety being more brazen wherever he
went in Western EU countries, and the closer to the UK, the more
annoying and obvious.
Voldemort had been back in the public eye for around four or five
months, and already morons wanted to join him in murder, and worse.
The selfish jerks just wanted to commit crimes of murder and hate and
whatever wherever they were as if life was so terribly cheap. The worse
thing about that was they were getting away with it.
He had beaten the ten barrels of crap out of ten Death Eater wannabes in
Italy, and got attacked by their aurors for 'taking the law into his own
hands', even though they attacked him, it was self defence, but they
didn't care. He had no choice but to beat them up too, not that it was
hard. He found wizard and witch cops more useless than the muggles. It
amused him as he was sure the muggle cops would have lasted longer
against him.
You just had to be fit enough to run away from magical world cops and
they would never be able to keep up, so just run into a heavily warded
area, and you're home free. Or if they've put up a localised ward, outrun
them through it and bingo was their name 'o, because they were your
puppies, led on the leash. It was not just Italy or the UK either. They
seemed to be just that ignorant in their own power, and that in arrogant
weakness of others worldwide, except a very few places, but many places
were different, some better than others.
He figured that going to the UK was likely the good thing to do since
some of his best friends lived there. Then he had his bitch of a sister
being the Girl-Who-Lived or whatever. He was torn about that, not her
title, he did not care about that, but his sister could, and should be
considered innocent, as she had not known better.
It frustrated him to think that he still cared about her and wanted to
protect her, and be a big part of her life; they were twins after all. The
magical world idiots would be putting a lot of pressure on her to be their
saviour. They did not seem capable of just getting off their lazy asses and
blowing the bastard Death Eaters to hell themselves and that would be
easy.
If they stopped following the 'high road' principle, and took the 'low road'
when called for, like dealing with the terrorist scumbags-smegheads all
would be right, and the Death Eaters, even under Voldemort's orders
would think twice before going out and having 'fun'. If they were smart,
if not, then who would really mourn them!
The world he came from was so different, full of technology and magic,
and everything the magical world stood against, he was for. He loved the
muggle world, and lets us face it, muggle fashions were better, so much
more to look at when checking out a cute girl, and he liked cute girls,
muggle, witch, cute and hot are cute and hot wherever he goes.
Harry smiled a little; as he leaned his head back he took a deep breath of
freedom. He let his mind wander as he had some time before the station,
and they would probably have to wait a few more minutes to be
allocated a platform or something.
He could remember the events that started this all those years ago. His
grandpa was fresh in his mind. He slowly closed his eyes, pulling in a few
deep breaths resting contently. His mind drifted back to his parents. They
should have been his family, but instead, life fell to fame.
Twelve years earlier…
Four-year-old, Harry James Potter had short messy black hair and beautiful
emerald green eyes. He was wearing old charity shop clothes: His sister Rose,
the girl-who-lived did not like it if their parents bought him anything new. He
was not sure why his sister was so stuck up and hated him so, because he
loved her very much, even though she was horrible to him.
Last year he had even heard Albus Dumbledore, supposedly nicest person you
could meet encouraging his parents to give Rose everything, and him nothing,
if that is what she wanted. He said that she needed to know all of the love
because she was special, and Harry wasn't.
However, Harry was not sure that was what Rose really wanted, because he
had also heard the old man telling her, her parents would give her anything
she wanted it, if she told them too not let Harry have anything because all of
their love belonged to her, so that she could grow up to save the wizarding
world.
Harry wondered why Dumbledore would be so cruel, so evil towards him but
came up with no answers. He wanted Rosette to have all of the love and
affection, and he knew anger for the first time. His sister was not exactly
stupid, but not very smart when it came to getting things she would do nearly
anything. He did not think he should blame his sister for this, but the idiots
that gave in to her.
Harry's mother Lily fought Dumbledore at first, but that old man had a way of
twisting words to make bad ideas seem good. He told them that Rosette needed
all the love and attention if she was to survive Voldemort.
Harry often wondered why that name never scared him as it did everybody
else. He guessed that it was because he thought the name was stupid. In all
honestly, who in reality could fear a name, unless you were weak minded and
pathetic… only a wimp and coward can fear Voldemort's name.
It was his and Rose's birthday and Harry was like any normal child on his
special day. He was in good spirits, and hopeful for at the very least one small
gift from his parents and a hug and kiss from his mum. However as the day
progressed and guests started arriving for 'Rose's' birthday party he was
ignored, by the end of the day all he wanted was a hug from his mum, that
was all he really ever cared about, however none came.
How anyone could just ignore one child for another was just horrible. He had
not eaten anything at the party, mainly because he felt uncomfortable. Every
time he went to take something to eat, he sensed a glare aimed at him, and
looking around it was always one of his parents, normally his dad, so he
stopped trying to eat. None of the other kids at the party even spoke to him or
gave his much of a look; he was just the pitiful unloved child nobody knew.
His family hated him… maybe even despised his very existence. What had
ever he done to deserve such treatment he may never know? However, he did
not hold it against them; not really, well maybe he held it against his father,
the worse of them all. All Harry had ever wanted from his family was some
love and attention, some kindness… to be happy like everybody else.
Harry had cried himself to sleep that night…
The next morning he had entered the kitchen for breakfast, starving after not
eating at the party when his father demanded he go to his room and not to be
greedy and stealing all of the cereal. He hadn't even opened the box yet. He
was lucky when he did as he was ordered that a house elf came with some
breakfast for him. He always' loved the house elves; they had always' taken
care of him.
Imagine that, having the servants love you more than your family? At least he
knew from the kind creatures what it felt like to have some kindness, some
love, someone to talk to.
That whole week he was not allowed into the dining room or kitchen,
therefore, a house elf kindly snuck him food, but it broke his little heart more
and more each day. His parents hated him. He was confused, lonely and
scared, why, what reason did they have to hate him? He could not take it
much longer. It would be better to have no family rather than one that hated
you.
Two weeks after his birthday, Harry James Potter left Potter Manor alone and
was never seen again…
Kind of not...?
Harry startled away, rubbing sleep from his eyes. He sighed as he quickly
checked on his phone as he woke up because he heard a tone. He was a
little surprised to see he had missed a text message from his best friend
reminding him to visit her, first chance he got once back in the country.
He was glad he had this new roaming contract or his and his friends bills
would be sky-high. He replied to her message and put his phone back
into his jacket inside pocket.
It seemed like only a minute before the train slowed to a stop and the
doors opened onto the platform. He had snaked passed nearly everyone,
disappearing onto the crowded platform, towards the gates and exit.
His ferry didn't leave until the next morning, so he had to find a place to
stay for the night. Since he was not going to be in town for long he
figured a comfortable, but cheap place was best since he didn't want to
waste his limited funds.
He normally earned money here and there, using his talents where
needed, or just doing honest work if he could, so he didn't have riches.
Though, the thought of just going into Gringotts and using his 'families'
money was tempting. He doubted they ever cut him off, thinking he was
dead or something.
Thinking of that, he doubted his family would even notice the money
missing they had so much, and who could 'steal' from Gringotts that they
would regularly check? It amused him that wizards were that arrogant or
just that stupid when it came to something as important as money that
they would be so trusting of the goblins of Gringotts wizarding bank.
He took a few deep breaths as he headed towards the exit when he
grabbed some scruffy looking kids wrist. The kid looked at him in terror
as he took his wallet back. Still holding the boy, he pulled out a ten-euro
note and stuffed it into the boys pocket before letting him go.
"This one's on me!" he said in perfect French, even emulating the accent
so well most people mistake him for a native, no matter the country,
language was his major talent when it had nothing to do with magic.
The boy stared at him for a moment before he ran off into the crowd
while he put his wallet away. He could have as easily turned out like that
kid, alone, picking pockets to get some food money. He knew there were
probably other kids around, and that it was to share, but he couldn't go
around giving out more than he could afford to lose at the moment, just
because he felt an odd affinity to the kid.
He made it out of the train station and hailed a cab – well they were all
parked up waiting for passengers, so he jumped in the front one, still
speaking French asked him to take him to a traveller's inn, as he was not
staying in town.
"A shame sir," the cab driver replied, laughingly. "Are you getting the
ferry in the morning to England?" he asked, being one of those curious
types, (nosey), as he pulled out into the street and started driving.
"Yes, I have some business to attend too," he agreed with a small smile,
not really feeling like giving much more, emotion wise as he sat in the
back, resting in the comfortable leather with his seatbelt on.
"Terrible luck they seem to be having over there... reminds me of those
Freak storms that hit New York!" he said, gesturing to the newspaper on
the passenger seat. It was that day's paper, the UK Mirror. He had left his
French paper on the train for whomever, since he had had his fill. "Here,
have a look… do you read English?" he asked, handing it over.
"You won't believe me, but it's my first language. I'm a somewhat
linguist," he said, shrugging. "Full emulation of another language does
wonders for comprehension," he added looking over the front page while
the driver nodded, though looked confused.
He grimaced as he saw a full page of a village, destroyed in a freak
'storm'. The clouds floated around the place with a green hue, and he
tried not to grit his teeth too much in anger as he could just see it, the
cloud held the shape of a skull and serpent. It was the mark of the Death
Eaters, but the muggle papers would overlook it as a coincidence and
brush it aside.
"You sure you want to head there now, friend?" the driver asked as they
pulled to a stop outside a lodge near the ferry docking terminals.
He sighed, rubbing his eyes. "Yeah, unfortunately I have to take care of…
well possibly my sister, and I have friends over there. It looks like it's
going to be one of those years," he finished, chuckling he handed the man
back his paper and paid him his fair.
"Possibly… but take care my friend!" the man called as he climbed out
and closed the door behind him.
He gave the driver a nod and waved him off before turning to the lodge.
It was getting dark so he quickly entered. He was lucky to find no queue,
just a pretty older girl working at the desk, smiling nervously as he
walked over asking for a room.
"Let's see here sir," she said with a nervous smile. "I'm sorry we don't have
any free rooms available," she lied with this sweet fake smile, brushing
back her long blonde hair back.
He detected the lie straightaway so went along with it, curious. "Oh, well,
that's a shame; could you tell me where I might find an available room?"
She seemed to gulp and panic then before she quickly shook her head.
"Sorry sir, I don't, but… no… that's too scandalous," she said as if talking
to herself, but it was obvious what she was trying to do now, and from
her lack of talent at it, it was quite obviously her first time trying
anything like it.
"Okay, I'll stay with you," he helped her out, startling her, she
'brightened', hiding her grimace as she let him lead her away before
taking his arm and leading him to her room.
A few minutes later, he had gotten comfortable, removing his clothes,
leaving on his black boxer shorts. She had told him she'd be back in just a
few as she left for the connected bathroom.
He was a little concerned, as she had gotten more nervous as she led him
to her room, and he felt her shaking. It was her weird plan so what was
he to do other than enjoy himself? He may be tired but when a cute girl
just up and offers, and he's magic so knows she was clean of any STI's
using a hidden charm.
Though, from her body language and everything else, not everything was
going to be as meets the eyes. So, it was the gentlemanly thing to do,
stay, get laid, and find out what the deal was later when some jerk was
shooting at him or something like that. He learnt from the best after all,
and that wasn't just from his grandfather, but a treasure hunting friend/
brig brother figure, and the opposite sex seem to get his 'big brother' into
trouble all the time, and still they both fall for the 'call'.
It might have seemed like an age when she finally opened the bathroom
door, slowly and shyly stepping out. His eyes widened in surprise as he
drank her in.
She walked out with a wiggle in her step, but it was clumsy in an
unpractised sort of way. However, he really liked what she was wearing.
It was a white silk nightdress with spaghetti straps over her shoulders
that left nothing to the imagination. It was lacy, almost transparent, but
not quite. He could still see the outline of her small breast and nipples
poking through the thin material. It was short, so short in fact; he could
see her tight white silk panties just barely covered.
Her long soft pale legs moved her forward almost against her own
judgement, and her eyes held a sad uncertainty as she moved closer,
crawling onto the bed with him. She gulped as she looked to the dark
silver metal wrapped around his right forearm.
He could feel her shaking as her fingertips touched his solid abs. He
pulled her into him, kissing her surprised lips with tenderness, as he
pulled her into his body, feeling her on him. Her fingers moved to his
arms, hesitant on the metal, before she ignored it.
She pulled back after a moment of kissing him, her chest pounding and
her long blonde hair falling onto his muscular body. She looked scared,
confused, worried, and even excited, and aroused, which was why he
carried on.
He pulled her back to his lips and she was not resistant. She accepted his
tongue, as hers met his. He wrapped his hands around her, taking hold of
her solid butt; he felt the moan into his mouth. Her finger's starting to
wander over his chest. She could feel the buzz of strength, the power
hidden beneath his flesh.
She moved up, onto his lap. She almost gasped into him as the weight of
her body pushed his large rucked up member into her butt. It was rock
hard and nothing she had ever thought it would be. She could feel him
pulling her down, swallowing her lips, her tongue, her saliva; she could
not stop from rocking her hips into him.
He was smiling as she pulled back, gasping for air. She was startled as he
rolled her over, lying gently on top of her. She could feel him pressed up
to her burning crouch. She tried to hold in the pleasurable groan as he
started nibbling on her left ear, down to her neck, suckling and nipping
at her flesh but it was impossible, and felt impossibly good.
Moving down and round he made it to her throat, nipping and licking,
her heartbeat raced. He was gentle but firm, soft and rough,
contradicting her thoughts, her mind, her senses felt close to shutting
down for a forced reboot. He stimulated her with his lips and fingers, his
tongue making her shudder.
He was feeling her small breast, her nipples painfully hard as he lifted
her sexy nightdress up and over her head, revealing her soft flesh. He was
sucking her nipples in seconds, one after the other, hungry. She was
whimpering and shuddering, moaning louder.
Continuing down, his lips and tongue left her sensitive little breasts to
her tummy and navel, licking and suckling her firm body. He was careful
while pulling her soaking wet panties off, smelling the delightful scent of
her need. It was swollen and soaking with some sparse hairs trimmed
above her entrance.
She was crimson cheeked as she looked down to see him taking a
moment to admire her before her head shot back as electricity coursed
through her veins and she cried out with a feeling she had never
imagined before. He licked again, lapping at her she just could not take
any more as she screamed out, squeezing her pale thighs around his
head, her fingers in his hair pulling him tight to her.
He suckled and drank from her as her body convulsed and shuddered
with a pleasure she could have never given herself. Her chest felt like it
was going to explode as she calmed, stroking her fingers through his hair,
her eyes glassy, unseeing.
It took her a few moments to recover when she saw him smirking as he
kissed his way up her body after cleaning off the last of her delicious
juices. She could not keep the smile from her lips as he kissed her deeply,
tasting herself on his tongue.
She knew she could do this now. She wanted it so bad. She started
crawling down, kissing her way down before he had even gotten onto his
back, his boxers off seconds later. Her eyes went wide as she saw it for
the first time, taking it in her hands her lips sucked it up into her mouth.
He almost shot his load early at her obviously non-experienced, hot little
mouth swallowed as much of him as it could. Her tongue was doing its
job well, tasting everything it could. He held back while she moved up
and down, sucking hard and moving fast, her hungry tongue tasting
everything, even pre when it dribbled out, and she could not get enough
of the salty taste.
Then it happened, and she had never known one boy could ever have
that much that she almost chocked and some went down her and shot out
of her nose. However, like he drank from her, she swallowed every last
drop and even licked it from her upper lips before he pulled her up, and
nothing was going down as she thought it would have.
He lay on top of her, holding his weight back as he kissed her, not caring
that he can taste himself. He was at the hot entrance, feeling the squirms
of him and her as he gently pushed in. It was like a fire and he loved it as
he slid further inside her body when he reached an obstruction.
This made him more suspicious, but her impatient humps saw that she
wanted more in, so he pushed. She gasped as he broke through the
barrier and slid straight in to the hilt. He kept it deeply buried; throbbing
inside her, while she adjusted to the new sensations when her rocking
hips told him she was ready.
He started pumping, slowly at first, but getting faster and faster, harder
and harder. She was crying out in bliss over and over again. Her chest
felt like it could explode, and she would not have minded. She felt dizzy,
like a high that she wished would last forever.
She felt it starting to bubble up while she watched his expression, heard
his pants and moans now as he enjoyed her body and she his in return.
She screeched, her body arching in a zone she didn't know existed, and
he was grunting out, pushed in all the way, holding his monster as deep
as it would go, emptying himself into her body, she could feel it all and
relished in every drop inside her body before they both collapsed onto
the bed, exhausted.
He let her hold him while he felt her throbbing around him as she
continued to enjoy the last remnants of the moments that she'd cherish
forever.
However, she did not have long as moments later someone was banging
loudly and dangerously on the door. They were shouting. Harry looked to
her; he could see fear and confusion.
"Y-you're not him?" she asked, but knew the answer so did not wait. "B-
but… I heard he was fat and old-er, but I thought they were w-wrong. I
hadn't seen him before, and I-I had to… I had to give 'his' son m-my
virginity for them to leave us alone…-!"
She had trailed off, having been so worried, the mood had left and she
had not noticed that he had pulled out. He had softened, covered in her
and him as he looked unconcerned as he grinned and covered her with
her blanket, keeping her snug.
He winked, and she blushed as he pulled on his boxers and opened the
door on the next bang. The man almost flew in. He was big with muscles,
wearing a blue suit. He was with another three strong looking men in
suits and a jumbo-sized fatty wearing shorts and a white tee shirt with
food stains on it, and they all looked to be in raging tempers.
"Who are-!?" the first man demanded.
He went down with a hand wrapped around his throat and his head
smashed through the brick wall, cracking mortar and plaster, shattering
into some bricks, going down, out cold to lie at his feet, a crumpled mess
of blood, completely ruining his suit.
"I'm Harry… Harry King; it's a pleasure to meet you!"

King of Bandit
Chapter 2
King of the World
"Who are…!?" the thug behind the door tried to get out in his anger while
his three suit wearing muscle bound men waited, just as angry for orders.
However, the young adventurer did not let him finish his question before
he struck. The thug went down with a hand wrapped around his throat
and his head smashed through the brick wall, cracking mortar and
plaster, shattering into some bricks, going down, out cold to lie at his
feet, a crumpled mess of blood, completely ruining his suit.
"I'm Harry… Harry King; it's a pleasure to meet you!"
Two of the other men took that as cues to attack, but Harry moved faster,
kicking one in the nuts while slipping his left hand into the man's jacket
and pistol-whipping him out cold with his own gun as he drew it, before
aiming it at the last two. They seemed like they were going for guns but
the click of the safety release on the silver handgun he took was enough
for them to get the point and back off.
However, the fat slob of a thing was truly terrified while his men did not
show those signs they were not stupid enough to do something stupid,
like try to attack.
"Right, tell fatty here that she is off the menu, and that if you or any of
your boys come back here ever again, I'll fucking kill you all!"
"Y-you haven't the guts kid!"
Bang!
The man screamed like a little girl as his kneecap was blown off. He fell
to the floor, crying and screaming, holding the bloody limb. "Don't even
think for a moment that I don't have the guts because I've met bigger
bads than you could possibly imagine, and I'm still alive, now get the
fuck out of here and take fatty, your 'friends', and the cry-baby with you!"
he demanded and the man nodded quickly and picked up his injured
'friend'.
It was kind of amusing watching him trying to drag the others too. "Why
didn't you kill him; he took what was mine!" the fatty whined without a
clue Harry could still hear him.
"Because that boy is dangerous! You don't cross people like him and win!
He would have blown our brains out!" he hissed his reply. "He wears a
freaking weapon on his arms, and when a guy does that, and doesn't use
it; it's probably good for your continued breathing!"
Harry shrugged, amused those types of 'gangsters' still exist as he looked
to a man and woman a little down the hall. He knew they must be the
girls' parents. He shrugged, smirking before turning from where they
watched him in awe, re-safety-ed the gun and closed the bedroom door
behind him, locking it.
She was lying in her bed still, under her covers looking at him,
squirming. "Hey, so, I can still stay, right?" he asked and she readily
nodded her head, lifting her covers to reveal her naked body, he pulled
off his boxers and slid in. "I guess I can always catch a later boat," he said
as she pulled his lips to meet hers, hungrily taking his tongue.
It was about one in the afternoon the next day that Harry had cleaned up,
washed and gotten dressed in some green cargo trousers, his brown and
black walking shoes, and white tee shirt since he carried everything
around with him using a useful magical trick. Anyway, what's the point
of all of the magic in the world if you don't use it when you need too?
He wore a cream coloured jacket and Kir had returned from wherever it
was he wandered too sleep while Harry was getting some action. He
would sometimes hide under his jacket if there wasn't anywhere else.
Harry still didn't know the blonde girls name, and she had already left
her room after showering with him, and dressed. She had left him a
sandwich, which he devoured before leaving and locking her room after
him, having hidden his new gun away using magic since he didn't want
to screw up and get into a crap-load of trouble if caught trying to take a
weapon on a ferry because that was too troublesome.
Harry stretched his muscles, feeling great. He had been surprised that the
police hadn't been called after the gunshot, but maybe people realised
who got shot and didn't care, or the hotel was empty, which wouldn't
surprise him, given the bull-shit that had been going down.
He soon found his temporary lover at the service desk. She smiled at him
as he reached her, and leaned over, kissing his lips. "I wish you could stay
with me," she said brightly. "I'm only a year older than you, and I doubt I
will ever find anyone as magical as you are."
"I'm sure you'll find somebody… 'Magical'," he said with a smirk, stealing
one last kiss. "We might see each other again… with luck," he said as she
watched him walk out of the doors and disappear out of her life after
saving it.
He was her Saviour!
Harry had boarded the ferry twenty minutes before it was due to depart,
so he sat back on a bench on deck to relax as he was still a little sleepy
from the night before.
He let his mind drift as the sun cooled down on him while mildly
wondering whether Kir was the laziest snake on earth or whether that
was just a snake thing. He would have to look that up sometime if he
remembered.
London!
His 'family'...
He remembered when he found a new hope, when a man saw he could
do great things if only encouraged.
He was a five-year-old little boy with messy black hair. He wandered alone
and hungry through the streets of London, unaware that he was being watched
and followed by an old man.
Harry Potter was cold and a part of him regretted running away. He didn't
even know where he was going as he wandered the streets. It didn't even cross
his mind that the family elves should have been able to track him anywhere.
He just knew his family would be better off without him in the way. His family
would not have him to glare at, and starve, and treat like dog-doo.
The young boy walked down a deserted alley with a blue backpack over his
shoulders, leading in to a dead end. Sighing he turned around, jumping. There
was an old man standing in his path. He wore a long, flowing orange trench
coat, and had brown eyes with greying black hair that stood out at angles, in
all directions downwards. He looked down at Harry with a mischievous grin
plastered on his lips. Harry was not really sure whether he should be afraid of
the old man or not, but he did not seem very sinister.
"Hello kid," the man said with a grin, his brown eyes were kind and
understanding.
"Err, who, who are y-you?" replied little Harry in a small voice. He was feeling
scared, but he held his ground. He had only just run away, and now he had
been caught. He wondered whether the old man had been following him, since
he could have sworn he felt a weird presents behind him for a while now.
"My name is Jing... King," he introduced himself, pausing after his first name
as if something amused him about his second name. He smiled. Harry would
swear he had heard that name before, the Jing part, but he couldn't quite
place it. "I am old and I'm not getting any younger," he began, laughing at his
own humour. "I fear my time in this world is not long but to expire, so I
searched for a boy just like I was – with so much hidden potential, so that my
talent is not lost. I am here to offer you the chance of a life time."
Harry gulped, stepping back slightly, it was not that he thought the man might
hurt him; he was just confused and startled. "W-why...? W-what do you want
with me?" He thought, since his parents did not want him around for anything
why would anyone else.
Jing grinned with a non-committed shrug. Harry hadn't met many old people
and no one as old as this man other than Albus Dumbledore. However, Jing
was clean-shaven and was neat and tidy wearing muggle clothes. But there
was something this man had that was the same as Dumbledore, and that was a
sense of power. Dumbledore frightened him sometimes, mainly because of how
he wanted his family to act, but Jing's power was not a sense that he was
doing anything purposeful as Dumbledore was, that crazy old man wanted
people to be impressed by him just walking into the room, Jing didn't seem to
care either way.
"Unfortunately, Harry I squandered so many chances to settle down and have
a family," Jing said with a faraway gaze before it returned to Harry, smiling
lightly. "Therefore, I had no children to pass my legacy down upon," he said
before mumbling something that Harry didn't quite catch, but he didn't ask,
"that I know of."
"How'd you know my name?" he demanded, starting to feel afraid.
Jing chuckled with a sheepish shrug. "I've met your parents before, and I
watched you, and when I looked into those eyes of emeralds it was as if I was
looking at myself; the possibilities; to steal such a gem as pure and
unrestrained by the improbable. I knew you, the child with nothing to stay.
There for he would become the new king and the legend would continue long
after I have gone and left this world."
He moved closer to the shocked child, crouching down to eye level he smiled.
The child was intelligent, long above his tender years. He had magic within
him just as far reaching as his possibilities. Jing knew the child would never
know how to fail even if he had to try time and again and that was the spark
of truth.
"People once said that I could steal the stars from the sky!" he said with a flare
to his voice as he stood up, straight, proud, and strong.
Harry stared at him in open mouthed shock. "Y-you're from my book!" he
declared in awe. "You were the Bandit King!"
Harry had read a book about all of the Bandit Kings crimes and his legend; he
had just found it lying in his room one day and found it fascinating. He had
even dreamt of one day becoming the King of Bandit, which would be so cool.
However, he just thought it a fairytale; some of the things in the book just
seemed unbelievable. He then realised where he heard this old man's name: In
the book.
It seemed so amazing; he was actually face to face with 'the' Bandit King: The
King of Bandit. His hero was in front of him. Harry's eyes were wide open in
shock and awe, he was really meeting him, it was not just a dream, not a lie;
he could see it was the truth in the old man's eyes… they held no fibs.
Jing grinned as he watched the boys' mind work frantically, trying to
understand, to comprehend what he had been told. "You enjoyed the book I
left for you then?" he finally asked noticing the young lads' awed expression
with some amusement.
Harry nodded emotionlessly. "I-it in my backpack," he soon responded, a small
smile stalled on his lips.
Jing grinned. "How would you like to take my place," he asked in barely a
whisper. "How would you like to be my heir?" he added quietly.
Harry's eyes bugged out of his head comically, in shock and wonder. "You
really want me to be the next King of Bandit?" he asked, his voice full of
wonder and hope.
Jing nodded and offered his left hand. "Only if you want to?" he agreed. Harry
suddenly nodded eagerly; making the best choice in his life… he took the old
man's hand in his right.
It would be a while until he knew; he had always taken the name Bandit. That
was who he was. Bandit King.
"Are we there yet?" Kir startled Harry out of his thoughts, and he
laughed.
"Not quite," he said, shaking his head. "The Ferry hasn't even pulled out
of dock yet, and won't for..." He looked at his watch. "Another ten
minutes, so give it a rest. You spend most of your time sleeping anyway,
so what's your problem?"
"I got bored!"
"Well don't try scaring people. They won't all be as awesome as me!" he
said laughing as he went back to lounging, thinking about when he first
met Kir.
Harry King was sad and lonely. He was twelve with a mess of black hair to his
lower neck. His emerald coloured eyes were dull as he wandered through the
small wood, lost in thought and heartache.
His Grandpa Jing had just passed over to the other side, leaving the young boy
by himself. He had friends whose parents would take him in without
hesitation, but he had a world to explore now he had nothing keeping him in
one place. He had some funds left by his grandpa, and plenty of homes around
the world he inherited, so he would have places to stay, not to mention friends.
He knew he was a bit young to travel the world alone. However, if he was to
become 'King of Bandit' he should start young, right? He had all of the skills
needed; he just had to find his first target, and succeed. He would live up to
the name Bandit King.
The young boy walked alone through the small woods when he suddenly heard
a snickering voice, "I'll scare the little human boy, real well!" Right then a
small black and red snake slithered into view on a branch as it appeared in a
stream as if it had been invisible before. It was just below eye level. "Boo!" it
hissed amusedly, giggling at the startled little human boy.
The young human suddenly grinned, giggling excitedly. "Wow, you're funny
little guy, aren't you?" he said to the snake in a hissing language he didn't
notice at the time.
"You speak!" the little snake hissed out, startled.
"Umm... of cause I do, silly!" he replied, finding that the little guy brightened
his day.
The little snake shook his head while little black eyes rolled. "You speak the
language of serpents!" he confessed in amazement.
"I can speak parseltongue?" he asked in awe while the snake didn't know what
that meant he took from context that it was what humans called their
language.
Now a normal wizard child from the wizarding world in the UK would cry
and think he was going to be evil and have to try hiding his gift, However,
Harry wasn't a normal wizard child anymore, and though he had never met a
parselmouth before he had been to countries where the culture considered
them high society, and a mark of good fortune among other things.
"That is so awesome!" he declared in glee instead of freaking out. "I can't wait
to tell my best friend Sahara! She will so freaking be jealous of how much
more awesome I am now!"
The little snake looked confused. "You is silly human!" he said, but it wasn't
spoken in a hurtful way, but jokingly.
"Oh, well, hey!" Harry said with a sheepish grin. "My given name is Harry
Potter, but my taken name is Bandit King, but normally I just go by Harry
King because I don't want anyone suspecting that I'm going to be the next king
of Bandit's, so it's mostly to protect my real name, you know, names can have
power and all that stuff."
"I do not have a name!"
"I know, how about Kir!?" Harry suggested. "That was my grandpas familiars
name!"
"I suppose I'll take it!" the snake agreed readily. "But how are you going to
become a king of anything all alone?"
"Well I am a wizard, but..." he sighed shaking his head. "I don't know much
sorcery! I do know lots of magic and fighting techniques though, and stuff like
that! I suppose I'll manage, but I suppose if you want Kir, you could come with
me as my familiar. It would be cool to have a magical snake to talk too."
Kir looked at him thoughtfully for a moment, corking his little black head to
look at him; he had red over his eyes looking like a little mask. He was deep in
thought for a moment.
"Hmm… okay… I guess I haven't really got anything better to do," he agreed
with a short nod of agreement. Well in actual fact, it was boring in the small
woods without anyone to talk to, and the young lad: Harry King seemed
interesting enough; he just didn't realise how interesting life would get when
Harry hadn't found a cute girl to take his mind off getting into trouble.
Harry laughed and offered his arm down to the young serpent. Kir climbed up,
coiling carefully around his wrist and forearm. He was small, and in a snakes
growth was about the same age as Harry was.
"Do you want me to find you some food before we leave?" Harry asked eagerly
with all the energy that rolled off him in droves, hoping up and down.
Kir chuckled shaking his little head in the negative. "I ate yesterday, and we
snakes don't eat everyday like you mammals," he answered good-naturedly,
with what might be call a smug smirk, though that could just be Harry's new
friend's normal expression.
Harry giggled in amusement. "Okay then… let's go," he declared over-eagerly,
as he sprang forward, bouncing off through the woods, happy he would have a
partner in crime, 'literally'. From that day on Harry and Kir became the best
of friends and never went far from each other, exploring the world and
bringing forth the new legend of the King of Bandit.
Harry sighed as he made it to the front of deck before the ship had made
much headway. He watched as they finally left Calais, amused, leaning
back against the safety rail. He was just going to head back inside to grab
a drink when he saw a girl, his age there about with crinkled light brown
hair tied back into a ponytail.
She is quite slender, wearing tight blue jeans and a pink hoody-top. She
stopped a little way from him, leaning on the railing, looking out into the
ocean. Her brown eyes were down and thoughtful, sadness clouding over
her vision, so she probably was not seeing much of the beautiful day to
be out on deck, as since whatever happened in New York seemed to have
screwed with the planets climate and it was taking a while to slowly
whirl back into place.
He was curious as he could sense her magic. She was leaking it. He had
never, not once seen a wizard or witch, except the odd under school age
muggle-born, well on muggle transport before. It was a novel experience
as some muggle-borns must still get along with their muggle family
enough to travel that way, or they were smart like him and didn't want to
miss anything, as the journey was half of the trip.
Harry grinned as he pushed himself up from the rail and walked over,
leaning on her portion of the rail next to her. She didn't even
acknowledge him, and he was sure she hadn't noticed him. It was
amusing he supposed, but not quite that clever of her with Death eaters
after English witches and wizards, muggle-born especially.
"Knut for your thoughts?" he asked in English, taking a guess, startling
her, her cheeks flamed up, embarrassed at her lack of attention.
"S-sorry," she said sheepishly. "I just have a lot on my mind… its nothing
really, but it was nice of you too… wait, you said knutt, as in…?" she
trailed off as he nodded, shrugging. "You're a wizard, but how did you
know I'm a witch?" she asked, concerned.
"You were giving off enough stressed magic to clue in an inanimate
object," he answered, amused while she ducked her head, further
embarrassed. "I'm Harry King! Please may I ask the name of the fine
young witch I am now in the company?" he said in a mock snooty way
that she associated with purists.
She could not help but smile, letting out a small giggle. "I'm Hermione
Granger. I really didn't think others like me travelled the muggle way."
"Well, I don't want to miss anything fun now do I?" he asked grinning as
he looked around and then gestured her. "If I were as foolish as to
teleport everywhere, I would have missed the opportunity to make a new
friend like you now, wouldn't I?"
"T-then I'm glad you're here," she replied, smiling as they went back to
looking over the sea, leaning on the rail with the wind nipping at them.
"It makes me feel kind of crummy thinking about going back... with you
know… 'HIM' on the loose, but it'll make me feel worse just leaving all of
my friends to it and not returning."
"The all-time dilemma… do you know what I would do?" he asked her
and she looked to him shaking her head. "I would buy me a bazooka," he
said in all seriousness and she could not help but burst out laughing as he
gave her a grin and took her right hand in his left.
"In a way it's the truth," he commented as she calmed down. "There are
these people who say two wrongs don't make a right. In a way, I suppose
I can see their point, but if some guy decides he's going to slap me
around. I'm going to break his face, and maybe kick him in the nuts a few
times, so that he gets the message. With every bully out there, if you step
up and retaliate with just as much… no, with more violence, it does send
a powerful and painful message to them, and others who would think
about playing on any weakness."
"I-I've never looked at it like that before," she said in surprise.
"Everyone… well, all the adults just want to capture the Death Eaters,
and they laugh and escape, and we suffer more for it. It's true, you can
stand up to the bully, but if the bully still doesn't fear you, then he'll just
come back, more brazen, laughing harder than before."
"Wow, beauty and brains… I like that in a girl," he said while she went
darker in the cheeks, holding his hand in return.
"I-I have a b-boyfriend you know," she replied but she did not let his
hand go. She had never been hit on by a boy in Harry's league before, as
he said, beauty and brains. Though, he was more along the handsome
and intelligent, and handsome in that dangerous way that made you
believe that he would get you both into some sort of trouble, but he
would fight you both out of it afterwards.
"Yeah, well I'm not really looking to settle down, really," he said
sheepishly. "But I bet this boy could never appreciate you, your body,
your mind, your lips," he said, with every word, his lips getting closer to
hers.
She licked her dry lips as her brown eyes gazed into his emerald before
their lips touched. She groaned into him at just that. He pulled her body
flush into him; his lips working at hers. Her lips moved with his,
accepting his tongue, she realised before now she had never been kissed
with any passion, and when he pulled back all she wanted was more, so
much more.
"I bet your boyfriend doesn't kiss like that," he said with a smirk while
she shook her head in agreement, licking her lips to taste the lingering
flavour of him. "Maybe you should take a run on the wild side, Hermione,
and I'll bring to you a passion, which will make you explode!" he
muttered, huskily, his lips nibbling hers while she tried to take another
kiss from him, but he wouldn't let her have more than nibbles.
"M-my best friends are always… always saying I should be more…
impulsive," she whispered as he let her take his lips, kissing deeply he
held her tighter. She ran her fingers through his hair, over his cheeks and
neck, unable to get enough of something she could never get from an
emotionless, selfish jerk like 'him', him-who? She couldn't remember as
she was lost in the taste, the emotions, the arousal, trying to dry hump
him here on deck.
He pulled back, smirking at her after a few minutes while she panted for
breath when she paled and looked worried as they heard someone call
her name angrily.
"Hermione Granger!" he yelled. Harry looked to see a man with a woman,
certainly her muggle parents. "What do you think you're doing?!" he
demanded.
"Umm… nothing," she replied, pulling back from Harry, blushing brightly
at getting caught and forgetting about her parents. "I was just err…
getting to know my – new friend here, um, this is Harry King, and he's
like me… well he's a wizard," she said whispering the last word though
they heard, looking around to make sure they were alone.
"And what about that Ronald boy?" her mother asked, scandalised. Well,
honestly Harry noted the look of relief in her expression, even
amusement, so maybe she was pleased her daughter was being more
impulsive or really didn't like this Ronald boy.
Hermione seemed to just blink several times in surprise before her eyes
widened as she remembered him. "I-I just forgot all about him, mum…
come on, you've met him, look and…" she trailed off trying to make her
mother understand without outright saying anything that would dig her
grave deeper.
Her mother sighed shaking her head. "Yes, I suppose I do understand. I'm
not too old that I can't appreciate a good looking boy!"
"Mum!" she reprimanded while her mother smiled and Harry tried not to
feel too uncomfortable. "Please, just shoot me now!" she added sadly.
"I'll oblige that!"
They turned as a man in black robes with creepy skeleton mask appeared
on the deck of the boat with four others, holding little sticks pointed at
Harry and Hermione. They appeared out of thick black smog, and they
could practically sense the sneering behind the masks.
"One of 'her' friends, all alone!" he said mockingly.
However, Harry moved her behind him as he stepped forward. "Hey, bait
for brains! I'm going to give you to the count of one to disapparate and
get lost, or I'm going to throw you all overboard!"
They just looked at each other before they burst out laughing, heads held
high and only stopped as they heard a yelp and looked around to see
Harry had moved and one of the men had disappeared, Harry now in his
place. They eyed him cautiously, and looked to see their target and her
parents staring at him in awe.
Harry moved again before they could think much on it, hitting one Death
Eater in the gut, he bent over whimpering while Harry dodged and rolled
across deck, avoiding the green spell one of the others fired. He came up
grabbing another Death Eater in a sleeper hold from behind, easily taking
him out and lobbing him into the drink.
Moving again, he picked up the one bent over, holding his stomach and
he went in after his friend. That left the last two stinking of fear, as they
had not had to fight anyone up close before. However, they both fired at
him. He dived between spells, sliding between them, and landing safely.
Harry stood, and they turned, firing the killing curse. He dropped to his
back on the floor, and their spells connected with each other, eyes wide
in their deaths.
Harry back-sprang up to his feet, placing a hand on each Death Eaters
chest and flung their bodies off the boat into the channel, nonchalant.
"Wow, they don't make minions like they used too," he commented
brushing his hands.
"Whoa, just like that!" Hermione said, quivering as she tried to stem her
flow, squirming as this was a wizard that was strong in body, not just
magic. She didn't want her parents to think she was thinking those sorts
of thoughts about a boy.
Hermione had watched Harry, kind of, kill five men without a care, or as
much effort as she would have thought it would take, but then they were
going to kill them given the chance. Then technically he did not kill
them, just threw three into the sea, and the last two killed each other, so
freely throwing around such a dangerous curse was their fault.
"You just made beating them look so easy!" she continued breathlessly.
She hadn't even the forethought to draw her wand. "So, is that why
you're going to England, to fight the Death Eaters, because I don't think
many people will approve of your method? Or killing Death Eaters since
most of them are purebloods and that whole backwater thing."
He snorted, amused, rolling his eyes. "Not really," he said while he
watched her parents take a seat looking pale and concerned, and he was
sure even her father had no objections to him anymore, since he knew
Harry could and would protect his baby girl.
Harry turned and looked back out over the ocean with a smile as he lent
on the rail, Hermione joined him seconds later. "I'm a runaway if you can
believe that, but now with Voldemort-," he said shaking his head while
she looked impressed as nearly everyone was afraid of the name, "then all
of these Death Eaters, and wannabes everywhere the nearer we get to the
UK. I do not know why but I just feel I have to head back, to protect my
sister, before some crazy scheme gets her needlessly killed.
"When I was little; it was her, her, her," he carried on, ignoring any
comprehension dawning in Hermione's expression. "So I ran away, and I
was found, on the streets. My parents hadn't even noticed I was gone, and
so I was taken in, and a muggle man… let's say adventurer because, well,
it's a better title, taught me. He was old and wanted to pass down his
legacy before he passed, and chose me, and he died three and a half years
ago, so I'm off travelling, to see the world more, meet new people, do
cool stuff."
"Y-you're Rosie's brother," she muttered, not even making it a question. "I
think she's grown up quite well since then. We're close friends. She
sometimes is arrogant and stuff, but if you look, when she's being a bitch,
she hates herself for it. She loves June to bits, more than anyone, and-."
"Who's June?" he asked, curious. "Is Rosette gay or something?" he could
not help but ask as it sounded like a possibility to him.
However, Hermione laughed, shaking her head. "Well, honestly, I have to
wonder about her sometimes, but I don't think so. June is your younger
sister. I guess you never met her before. She wasn't born then. It will be
her second-year, come the first of September."
Harry frowned at that, thinking back. "Mum… she was pregnant when I
left," he said as if he only just remembered, and the memory was so long
ago, when he was so young, it was more like he was just working out
dates. He had left shortly after his fourth birthday, so that seems about
right.
"I-I guess, but I'm a muggle-born, so very little chance I could have been
there," she replied, taking his hand in a reassuring manner. "Your mum
died last term," she continued, lowering the mood further. "She died
protecting us… I think she had learnt a valuable lesson, loosing you
because she treated Rose and June equally, unlike that ass of a father!"
"Oh, great," he muttered, sighing. "I guess this means I'll have to rescue
my little damsel from that douche bag, James Potter. He always was the
worse, lording Rose over me, and how she'll be something special and I'll
be the family joke. Don't be too surprised if I end up breaking his face."
"We've all thought about it!" Hermione replied with a kind smile, leaning
into him and holding him in a comforting manner.
"So, what are you going to do?" she asked after a few minutes of silence.
He looked to her with a small smile and a shrug. "I'm honestly not too
sure, but I suppose I have to think of something. I just have two sisters to
protect now, no big deal. I can do that. I'm glad I met you here, though
not so much that your parents turned up."
"Yeah, but I suppose I shouldn't have been so… willing for my first time
with a strange boy I just met," she said impishly blushing. "I have Ronald,
my boyfriend…" she trailed off, not sounding at all enthusiastic.
"Sounds like you need to drop him like a sack you only just realised is full
of elephant turd," he replied, pulling away from her and letting her hand
go while she suppressed her snickering. "I guess I'll be seeing you later,
Hermione but I think some alone time or, whatever will be nice, to think,
if fate will let me have a moment."
She smiled, nodding glassy eyed as he stole another kiss from her lips,
her eyes closing. They sprang open moments later as he took her hand
again with a huge grin.
"You know what; let's go have some fun anyway!" Harry said with a grin,
tugging her after him. "I don't like having silly regrets and well-."
"No regrets!" she agreed, letting him take her, and she called back to her
parents quickly. "Umm... we're just going to have a look around the ferry
before we get into Dover!"
Harry finally pulled Hermione into the disabled toilet. It was large
enough for them to do whatever they wanted. He closed and locked the
door, and smirked at her. She gave him a small nervous smile.
Suddenly he leaned in. His lips captured hers. She was startled for less
than a second, before her lips started working of their own accord,
kissing his. She felt a power burning throughout the kiss: a blazing force
as the kiss deepened, he placed his arms around her, pulling her body
tighter to his. She knew he was strong, but she could feel his muscles
stronger through his clothes.
She ran her fingers through the inside of Harry's coat, over his shoulders,
and she felt pure muscle, stalling a smile from her lips. She tasted his
tongue on hers. No words needed, she pushed his jacket gently back.
She was started, pulling back as the snake around his neck woke to glare
at the pair before he uncoiled and slithered under the jacket to hide as it
hit the floor. Harry shrugged sheepishly as his lips returned to hers and
she let the snake drop from her mind.
He pulled his lips from hers for a moment. His hands making their way to
the buttons on her blouse; his emerald eyes stared unblinking into her
hazel. She did not know how, but all of the buttons on her blouse undid
without his hand touching her. He moved his hands to her collar, slowly
sliding her blouse down her shoulders, his eyes glazed down to her white
bra, hiding her nice sized breasts, maybe three handfuls each. He let the
blouse drop to the floor behind her as his fingers found their way to her
soft stomach.
His fingers roamed her beautiful skin as his lips caught hers again. Her
hands found his muscular arms, but she almost gasped as she felt metal
on his right forearm. She pulled back from the burning kiss with a small
moan, looking at his arm. It was some kind of metal bracer fused to him:
dark silver in colour. However, taking her gaze from that she tugged his
tee shirt up and over his head, throwing it to the ground.
Her eyes opened wide. She had never seen muscles like his, this close
before, lean and taught. Her fingers found their way nervously to his
chest, feeling him was nothing like seeing. She could barely believe how
solid he was. His muscles felt like soft steel. Her hands could not help but
roam his body as she captured his lips in hers again.
His arms were around her. She felt no touch but somehow the back of her
bra unclipped as she worked her lips down Harry's jaw, down to his neck
before pulling back slightly. She let him slide off her bra, showing her
stiffened nipples and breasts.
Harry reached up eagerly with both hands, squeezing her breasts, he
positioned his hands so he could gently rub her nipples between his
thumbs and forefingers, increasing the stiffness, she groaned. He moved
his mouth in, tasting each nipple with a flick of his tongue.
Hermione whimpered out in pleasure at the contact of his tongue, and
more so as his lips encompassed her right, sucking lightly before moving
to her left, all the while his hands caressed her breast. Her head rose up
as she enjoyed the attention she got from him, groaning and moaning. All
her nervousness had left her as she enjoyed herself.
Then however, the sensation around her nipples left as Harry moved his
kisses lower, down her body, kissing her stomach and navel. He just
brushed his right hand over the button of her jeans and it undone, her
zipper sliding open. He waved his hand over her shoes, the laces
untangled and she allowed him to slide them off her feet, some nervous
butterflies returning in force.
Harry worked Hermione's jeans down, around her ankles and she shakily
stepped out: She wore small white panties that were drenched around the
front. He kissed her inner thighs as he worked his way up, his lips
touching her wet panties as his fingertips entered the sides, slowly he
worked them down, revealing to his emerald eyes her wet area, and
brown hairs; he helped her step out of her panties before his lips brushed
her slit: tasting her delicious juices.
He used his thumbs to open her slightly. His tongue slid up. Hermione let
out a gasping moan, as he tasted her fully, his tongue beginning to lash at
her. The girls' moans becoming more vocal the more pleasure he gave
her.
Then it happened as Harry slid his tongue deep inside her body. She
gasped out with a little squeal, grabbing his hair and pulling his face
further into her, between her legs. Harry could feel her soaking area
contract around his tongue and a small gush of juices, entering his
mouth, which he drank down greedily. Hermione screwed up her face in
the ecstasy of that moment, groaning and panting out loudly.
As it passed she released her grip on Harry's head, and the young Bandit
King pulled back from her, with one last lick that sent a shiver of
pleasure up her spine. He looked up at her as he slowly rose, kissing her
lips gently, allowing her to taste herself, second 'hand' from his lips and
tongue.
Hermione then slowly moved her lips, over his to his jaw and down his
neck; he raised his head with a groan as she made her way further down,
her hands roaming his solid body. Her tongue tasted ever inch of his
chest, down to his strong abs.
She crouched as she unbuckled his belt, letting it hang undone on his
trousers as her hands went further down, feeling for away to realise his
boots. She felt something that appeared to be a huge metal buckle; letting
her gaze flitter down she noticed his boots had no laces, but buckle-clips.
Therefore, she released the catches and pulled them off, dropping them
next to her.
She then reached up, and without undoing his button or fly, she pulled
his trousers down letting them drop to his ankles. As her gaze caught
sight of his black boxer shorts, her eyes bugged out of her head at the
huge, stiff bulge, and she needed to shake her head clear. She let a small
smile creep onto her lips; as she slid her hand on the huge warm bulge,
giving it a small squeeze, which earned her a groan from Harry.
He smiled down at her as she slowly and methodically slid his boxers
down, his huge member sprung free, hard and ready for use, as she
dropped his boxers to the side her gaze never leaving his penis. She
slowly reached up, the fingers of her right hand shaking slightly as they
touched him, just brushing it at first as she knelt before him, slowly
wrapping her fingers around, and slowly pumping it, playing with him;
he let out a pleasant groan.
Hermione spent a few minutes pumping Harry's large member before she
got her nerve up to the correct levels. She slowly moved her head
forward, her lips brushing the tip. She poked her tongue out slightly
brushing it on him, he moaned, whimpering but not rushing her.
Slowly she slid it into her mouth, and sucked gently to begin, getting a
small gasp from the young King as she began to pump it within her
suctioning mouth. Her right hand now squeezing the base of his largeness
tightly as she sucked him harder, enjoying the taste and the moans of
pleasure he was giving her.
She moved faster as Harry moved his hands, stroking them through her
hair, as she swallowed him. He groaned louder as she took in as much as
she could manage, unsurprisingly, since it was her first time that was not
much.
However, she kept working on him, enjoying it, she felt herself even
more turned on with every second, as her left hand moved between her
legs and she slid her middle finger in. She played with herself as she
sucked Harry's throbbing.
He started pumping her mouth as she continued groaning and sucking.
Then it happened. He burst out in noise as she felt his hot sticky seed
blast into her mouth. She struggled to swallow every bit as he continued
having sex with her mouth, but she just about managed not spilling
much, and there was a lot, as he slowed down to a stop.
Hermione slowly slid her head back, sucking off him, flicking the tip with
her tongue, taking with her a bit more of his gooey goodness. She
swallowed, barely believing what she had done, and she thought she was
supposed to be the smart good girl.
She looked up into Harry's green-eyed gaze to see him grinning at her, he
offered his hand and she took it allowing him to help her up to her feet,
pulling her finger from herself he took it into his mouth, sucking it clean.
He smirked at her as he kissed her forehead working his way down to her
nose, then lips. They kissed softly before he moved in closer. Hermione
felt Harry's stiff member pushing up against her tight hotness, slowly
pushing for entrance. She stumbled backwards, as Harry stepped forward
with her, keeping her from falling as they kissed.
Her back hit the wall and Harry pushed up against her, taking her hands
in his. She gasped a little at the pain as he slid the tip of his hardness into
her, she squeezed his hands.
Feeling his solid body against her, her lips touched his neck and another
gasp escaped her as he pushed further, gently pumping his way deeper.
Harry suddenly felt some resistance as he pushed; reaching the barrier,
he smiled slightly and just pushed.
Hermione gasped out with a small squeal of pain as he breached her,
before moaning out as he slid still deeper as he pumped her, working her
body. Her toes twitched in her socks. She released his hands, holding him
loose but tight around his neck.
She held on as he pumped harder and faster. They both moaned and
groaned; Hermione was noisier. Harry held her right hip in his right hand
and moved his left to her left thigh, lifting her leg, bent at the knee for
better leverage. He held her with ease as she screwed up her face from
the force of the sensation, moaning out louder, almost shrieking the
faster and more he moved, before it happened for her again.
She screeched out, as she contracting, so he let go and she felt his hot
seed shoot deep inside her as he grunted out; he continued, emptying
himself into her body, her juices spilling out with some cum, spilling
down his penis and balls as he slowed to a halt.
He carefully pulled his softening member out of her, and she smiled,
breathing heavily as he let her stand on two feet again. She looked down
at his member, noting her juices, blood and his cum. She bent down and
swallowed his softening penis into her mouth, sucking the sticky
concoction off. Pulling back, she licked him clean before standing again
and staring at him.
She could barely believe she had just done this as her lips briefly found
his before she pulled back. It had felt so good, after the initial pain of
entrance; she just wished they had longer to do it again, but knew the
trip across the English Channel was not a long one.
It had been forty wonderful minuets and Hermione felt slightly bad for
her boyfriend after letting a strange boy she had only just met take her
virginity in the disabled toilets. Though, he was her best friends' twin
brother, and super-hot, so she wasn't sure she cared.
She doubted very much whether her boyfriend could ever make her feel
that good, even one tenth as good. It was wow; his kisses were like
burning lightning.
They had washed up a little in the sink and felt refreshed. The only thing
other than the snake she finally took full notice of was on his right
forearm, some sort of metal thing fused to him, even to the bone. It was
odd, and disconcerting, but Harry was incredible.
"So, err, what is that thing on your arm?" she asked as they both began to
get dressed. She was curious now.
"Oh, this is, err, nothing really," he replied nervously, unsure what to tell
her for a minute before lie mode kicked in. "I err, damaged my arm quite
badly a while back, and with no magic to heal me, well… this had to do."
Hermione nodded thoughtfully as she replaced her bra, though did not
totally believe that excuse, she let it slide. "Well, what about the snake?"
she asked interestedly.
Harry chuckled with a small grin. "If I tell you you'll think I'm evil or
something stupid like that," he replied pulling on his tee shirt. "Most
wizards and witches in this... area aren't the most reasonable people," he
added as an afterthought.
"Oh, so you speak Parseltongue?" she replied shrugging nonchalant, she
was not one of those many idiots from the magical world. "Rosie's a
speaker too, but Dumbledore tries to play it off as a side effect of when
you know? But if you have it too, maybe he was just lying!"
"Probably!" he agreed, shrugging. It was nice to know that he had
something in common with his twin sister. He hoped June had the ability
too just so he could call the old man's bluff out. "You know, you should
never forget to care about your parents because they care about you no
matter what!"
She looked at him in surprise as he was fully dressed with snake, and
smirked before he disappeared and she smiled. It seemed like she would
get to see him again soon.

King of Bandit
Chapter 3
Bandit Saviour
Harry sighed as he landed in the bright street of Hogsmead. He looked
around the busying, small village with a frown, noting the huge castle in
the distance; he blinked the sun from his eyes.
He had just shot for the village because it should be peaceful and quiet;
he would get to contemplate his little sister problems, and one being the
Girl-Who-Lived needed extra care and protection, or something along
those lines. So, he ended up in the small Scottish Village of Hogsmead,
near the huge castle of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Harry looked around frowning at all of the rushing witches and wizards.
He figured he might as well have a look around since he couldn't
remember visiting Hogsmead before, even as a child still living with the
Potters.
He looked up at the monumental castle school as he walked into the
village proper. He had heard it was massive, but it looked like you could
get lost, and that was from the small portion he could see.
He found it quite amusing that the people around him were rushing
everywhere, as if they could not defend themselves from evil dark
wizards. They each carried around weapons, and they just used them to
be lazy, watching their loved ones die and crying instead of fighting
back.
It was pathetic and pitiful. It was so disgusting that these people were as
scared of someone as pathetic as Voldemort and his posy. They were just
terrorists. It is that simple, not even very powerful terrorists. He should
know. He had met some terrorists that should scare people.
The only thing they really had going for them was numbers and not-
ironically terror. They made others fear them so they did not fight back,
falsely believing the Death Eaters were powerful when they were really
disorganised, and dysfunctional pussy-shits. It was only a very few Death
Eaters that had any talent or power, along with Voldemort while the rest
rode on their apron strings.
Harry stopped with a sigh outside a small coffee shop, as he thought
about a coffee of some description going down well. He did enjoy mocha.
However, as he got closer his decision to enter the shop seemed very
hasty. He stopped outside the window looking in and made a face as if he
would rather take his own life than enter the shop.
It was decorated in cheap and tacky tinsel and doilies, and looking closer
he was sickened to see dancing pixies in tiny individual cages wrapped in
tinsel outfits, hanging from the ceiling.
Harry cringed and opening the door as he went on a rescue mission. The
whole place stunk of heated perfume. It was obvious that the owners of
the 'restaurant' had spelled it that way. He could not help but feel sick as
he entered, looking around at all of the tat. If it was not for the need to
rescue the pixies he would not have entered, and just reported them for
health violations, as the air was that thick with perfume it was almost
chocking.
Under normal circumstances he would have left and contacted the proper
authorities about the tiny, adorable little kidnap victims and a swat team
would come to free them and deliver just punishment and shut the place
down. However, since this was the wizarding world he would have to at
least free the tiny victims himself.
He had to hold back the bile as some sickeningly dressed girl in bright
lovey-dove colours came up to him smiling brightly. She might have been
a real looker if she wasn't dressed like that, even though the robe was
really short showing her smooth creamy legs none of the males in the
shop, (obviously forced as they all seemed to be in as much distress as
him while trying to converse with girlfriends) looked.
"Can I find you a seat sir?!" she asked him with wide blue eyes sparkling
in hope. "Are you expecting a lady friend?"
"N-no, I'm alone," he replied trying not to gag. He could barely believe,
she and all these other girls were really that oblivious to the pain
attacking their senses.
"Okay, right this way, sir!" she chimed happily skipping along as she led
him to a stool along a bar that curved around the windows.
He sat down, trying not to show how much he hated the place. "Thank
you very much," he forced out to the girls delight as she did this odd little
twirl for him, smiling wider. "I just walked into hell didn't I?" he
muttered to himself.
"Excuse me sir?" she asked, befuddled, as she did not quite hear what he
said.
He chuckled nervously. "I'm sorry, please forgive me, I was just talking to
myself, just remembered the name of this book a friend recommended
the other day and I couldn't for the life of me remember what it was
called."
"Oh, well I'm glad to hear that sir," she said cheerily. "Could I possibly get
you a coffee now, we have a wide range."
"S-sure, just a simple café latté please," he said and she nodded with a
bow, twirling and giggling, this time giving him a flash of bright pink
panties before skipping off. He would have gone for mocha but they were
normally faster to make and he wanted a moment longer.
He grimaced, not that the flash was not nice, but the girl looked to be
about nineteen, twenty and was acting so childishly, and. He looked
around the coffee shop, frowning as he noticed some boys at some tables
nearly in tears, from either this horrid atmosphere or the girl laying into
them, angry for some reason.
That made him look round more, only the boys, himself included seemed
to be affected by the perfume scent but they cared enough about the girls
to suffer through it, or maybe the girls were affected, but in a different
sense. The smell was giving him a sort-of headache, but he wondered
what it could have been doing to the innocent girls.
He quickly looked around; his waitress would be a few minutes. He
looked up as he climbed onto his stool as no one was paying him any
attention and pulled one of the many cages down from the ceiling, hiding
it under the bar. He took real notice after that, that all of the pixies were
female, and loads of different species with no noticeable pattern to their
kidnapping, not that he was a pixy expert.
"Some kind of spell?" he suggested to himself reasonably but shut up
talking to himself, holding the tiny cramped cage between his knees as he
took his coffee from the odd waitress once she returned.
She giggled and near pushed her small cleavage into his face, having
opened her short robe at the top sometime during her trip to give him a
better look. He made it obvious to show he was 'under' whatever she was
trying as he took a sip of his drink. He tried not to show his surprise. He
had tasted this before; it was a mild form of love potion in his drink.
He pushed the thought of just taking her round back and doing her
senseless, or until she blabs, and tells him what is going on, if she was
not under the spell too. In all honesty, she was likely just another victim
by the way she was acting and he was the only customer being served.
"Thank you very much," he said while she was beaming, and if she had
been wearing a bra before, she was not now as she was blatantly let him
see her boobs, nipples included. However, she was blushing up a storm
too, which showed some insight into her subconscious understanding,
embarrassment, but other than that, she didn't show any other sign she
was uncomfortable showing him.
"I was wondering. I would love some freshly baked cookies!" he
continued, hoping to get rid of her for a bit longer.
"Of course!" she squealed in delight, hugging him, he got a face-full
before she hitched her robe back right, kissed him and skipped off
happily. "I'll bake them myself, my love," she said happily disappearing.
He really hoped it was the spell, and she was not in on whatever this
was, because he felt sorry for her, and he doesn't like hurting girls'
feelings unless they were bitches trying to murder him and his family,
and then he made the exception if needed.
Looking around, he sighed in relief as no one even paid him a moment of
attention as he leaned down, face to face with the little reef pixy, as she
stood quietly waiting in her little, too small blue tinsel dress. Her little
blue eyes were sparkling with hope filling her eyes leaving no whites.
She has twitching antenna in her head coming out of yellow hair, and
little pointed ears and twin wings like a dragonfly. Her skin colour was a
light lime green. She was not even wearing anything on her feet and he
could see bruises on her. She had stopped dancing and was resting up
against metal bars, panting, her little chest heaving with exhaustion, and
she looked too skinny, barely fed since her kidnap, if fed at all.
"It's OK now," he whispered to her. His voice paten and speech was
completely new. His 'words' were now like little hums, quiet and
relaxing. "What are they doing to everyone, how are they controlling-."
"Siren!" the little thing whimpered her voice small and timid. It was
normally a little more difficult to hear pixies or fairies because they were
so small, but she was so scared. "Siren, us, and spell; it uses us to bring
girls who bring boys so girls break boys hearts! Boys hate the smell,
inside know its danger, but girls… boys come here anyway as girls pretty,
they like girls, but they leave sad, love potion makes boys love, and girls
break boys hearts, feeding her they do!"
"Feeding who?" he asked but dodged out of his seat as he saw the fear on
her face as she looked passed him. The stool burst into flames, but none
of the other customers took notice.
Harry held the cage protectively as he looked to see the reef pixy had
been knocked out, but her chest was still rising and falling so he knew
she would be okay, but he was still concerned for her. He stood from
where he knelt and grimaced as he saw this fat, old, slimy woman with
boils and warts all over her face. Her black hair was coated in sweat and
had bald patches and grey, and grime and, yuck.
She smiled with broken filthy black and yellow teeth, her right eye
covered in white pus and the other blood red with pinkeye. She was
wearing a black robe ten sizes too small on her, and fat was pouring
through the creases, and it was obvious she was naked underneath as one
of her hairy giant saggy breasts was hanging out between some buttons,
and if it weren't for her giant over hanging gut he would see more of
what he didn't want too.
She held a black coloured wand and stood at about seven feet with
twenty chins and hair all over them. He had never imagined the thought
that he could look at a troll naked, male or female and be okay with that
until he saw this thing. Was she supposed to be a witch or the
boogieman? The thought made him feel ill.
"Like what you see, don't you handsome!" she said as plain fact as she
tried to swagger forward it was more of a stagger. He wondered how the
hell she managed to sneak up on him let alone move. "I'm quite the
beauty, but alas, no man asks me out! They're too intimidated by my
body," she said. Her voice was making him cringe, as it was a cross
between Mr. T and Mickey Mouse, and was not something he would ever
expect to hear, even simulated as a joke online.
Harry shook his head, trying to hold his stomach in as it felt like it was
trying to escape. He has seen ancient mummies, and rotten corpses,
which came to life trying to kill him, and right now, they seemed like fun
not-gross things to fight. He would rather commit necrophilia with a
zombie than let this woman touch him.
"I don't know what kind of mirror you've been using, but, oh fuck you're
revolting!" he spat out shocking her when he looked closer and she
flickered from fat to beautiful and back again.
She smiled, thinking she had fixed her illusion, but it was obviously a
mental illusion, which would not affect him.
"Yeah, not going to work elephant lady!" he said taking a step back, the
pixies having stopped dancing, he could see the patrons shaking their
heads looking around, and a few boys and girls along with young men
and young women threw up upon seeing her as she fumed, losing
concentration and not realising the spell had stopped.
"Why you brat!" she hissed out angrily, flinging a spell he dodged. "I
handed you that silly little bitch's innocence to play with and this is the
thanks I get. I knew it was too good to be true that a boy would be drawn
here by the spell!"
"Yeah, she's cute and pretty fine, but I'm not going to take advantage of a
drugged up girl!" he replied as he raised his right hand and she staggered
back as a small but deadly ball of fire burst to life, aimed at her. "Now,
I'm taking all of these pixies, the siren, your waitress, and the 'customers'
and we're leaving. I shall then be reporting you for illegal use of magic,
and then you'll be hunted and put in jail where you belong!"
"NEVER!" she roared out when suddenly she was hit by several spells
from two baffled people sitting behind her. She collapsed with a huge
crash, shattering a table as she fell on it.
Harry looked them over while they were trying to shake off their stupors.
The first was a man with shaggy black hair and blue eyes while the
woman at the table next to his was pretty, slender, and with pink hair.
They were sitting with two confused people; the hot woman with the
man had crinkled red hair while the guy with the hot young thing was an
older guy, maybe the same age as the black haired man, with greying
brown hair, if you calculated in the obvious lycanthropy.
The other two had drawn their wands, standing too as they noticed what
was going on, the spell leaving them, slowly but surely, but still faster
than Harry would have thought.
"Who is she, and what did she do to us?" the waitress girl asked, holding
a trey of freshly baked cookies, looking at them she let them drop to the
floor. "I'm sorry, they had love potion in them," she said sadly.
"Miss. Tonks," the red haired woman said, shaking her head clearer. "Get
this thing out of my sight!" she hissed such venom even Harry flinched.
"Yes ma'am," the pink haired girl said nodding as she went to levitate
only to conjure a giant blanket first and leaving with her, the lykan, or
maybe not quite lykan, as he still had trouble with the phases of the
moon; so he needed to work on that.
Harry just placed down the pixie cage and went passed towards the back
room.
"Where do you think you're going?" the woman demanded, angry with
him. "You are to leave the siren to us!"
Harry just gave her a look of 'insert cuss here'. "I don't think so. I'll be
taking her away from here and you morons' thank you very much. I'm
not rescuing her for you to dump her in another fish tank for perverts to
touch!" he said leaving into the back room.
He was not followed as he spun his way through some corridors and
through a secret passageway. "Oh, fuck!" he said, wide eyed as pixy bones
and decaying tiny bodies littered the chamber. There were cages of
thousands of pixies fluttering, but they stopped as they saw him, hope
shinning in their little hearts.
Looking around they were all starving, and in the centre was a small
glass tank of filthy salt water, no bigger than a child's paddling pool, and
very shallow. She was barely submerged. Her arms were hanging over
the edges with webbed fingers, as she lay on her back. She was so skinny
he could see her ribs. Her blue and green tail was dull and drying out.
Her long blue hair was matted and dry, looking brittle to the touch.
Her wrists were chained to the floor with shackles and her pale skin was
pasty, dry and flaky. Runes marked the outside of the 'pool'. Her eyes
were closed and she was sleeping, pained by her expression, her fanged
teeth grit in agony. She had bruises covering her bare skin and some
blistered burnt skin on her breasts, having lost so much weight having
gotten very small.
She looked too delicate as he knelt by her side, checking her pulse; it was
erratic and too weak. Her eyes flickered open weakly as she felt the
touch; her piercing black eyes were near lifeless.
"Sshh, it's OK now," he said softly to her as he stroked her hair and tears
fell from her eyes. "I'm... I'm from the Council... or... oh, sweeties, it's
okay, everything will be okay from now on. I'll get you home, I promise."
He placed his free hand in the water while she would not let go of his
other and started concentrating, mumbling words. The water level started
rising, and then overflowing the pool, soaking him, her breathing started
evening out as he replicated the saltwater, conjuring more, enough to
make her feel more comfortable.
Harry had flooded the whole chamber, some of the lower pixies
managing to get themselves something to soak in, to calm their aches, as
they knew they should not drink it. He stopped the water after a few
minutes and in a swift action managed to shatter her chains.
She held onto him, as he seemed to pull a blanket out of nowhere and
wrapped her in it to give her her privacy and modesty. He pulled her into
his arms and she held onto him, whimpering in his embrace as he sat her
on his lap, drying her off, her tail moulded and reformed into weak
skinny legs before he stood up.
He held her protectively as all of the cages in the chamber exploded open
and pixies poured out with cries of thanks, some carrying injured or
weaker friends, as they could not fly.
Entering back out into the shop, it was near empty except for that red
haired woman and a few other people, the cages empty as the last pixy
left out the open door, waving to him in gratitude.
He looked over the siren as she was whimpering and he could hear her
stomach growling with hunger. He smiled sadly, kissed her forehead
while she found content in him, and drifted off to sleep in the knowledge
that he would get her help, and get her home.
"Where will you take her?" the red haired woman asked.
He looked to her, shaking his head. "I'm taking her home so her people
can see to her wounds and we can feed her," he said before leaving, only
to stop in the doorway. "Wizards will find travelling by sea dangerous for
a while, so I suggest you spread the word," he said before just leaving,
disappearing with a dispersal of space.
"Amelia, you're going to get bitched at a lot by people who would want
an actual live siren to study," the black haired man said.
"Possibly, but this was the right thing to do, Sirius," she replied with a
sigh. "Plus, that boy can make a fireball without a wand; I don't want to
risk the humiliation of a kid beating me up."
"Point taken," he said with a small grin.
Harry had taken the mergirl home, and sat chest deep within the surf of
an uninhabited island, hidden by magic, only wearing his beige cargo
shorts. He could only find the place because his charge allowed it. He
stroked her blue hair caringly as he had gotten rid of the blanket,
covering her almost fully in the salt water, she relished in the comfort of
his arms, as he helped her eat the fruit he had gotten her first.
The water crashed into them as night started to fall. The silver orb of the
moon lighting them, and it would seem romantic if not for the injured
girl. He cuddled her while they waited for her people to come for her. He
knew they would, but their protection came first, so they had to wait.
They had to make sure it was not a trap to capture more of them.
He had to chew the fruit for his new friend, and because she needed the
good stuff from it, he has to pass it to her mouth to mouth. She accepted
it like this after she almost chocked on a piece he tried giving her, first as
she was too weak to chew. He lowered his mouth and she near kissed the
fruit from him, and he could sense her sweetness and love.
She made sweet little noises as she ate. Her little mouth smiling as the
already mashed up fruit slithered down her throat. He found it quite
amusing that she seemed to be enjoying his attention and semi-kisses as
he fed her like a bird would feed a baby-bird or something like that.
However, darkness had settled over the island and he had run out of fruit
so settled for holding his charge and waiting. Then he sensed the
unknown, coming from further out, eyes widening as he saw them,
around thirty beautiful girls ageing from sixteen to nineteen at the most
with long hair covering their breasts as they walked with legs, completely
naked, shimmering in the moonlight.
Harry had heard that sirens could control the legs thing they do, but also
knew that out of the water it was an automatic thing, and they could not
last long without salt water. His charge couldn't do it consciously because
she was too weak at the moment, which was why he stroked her tail
under the water.
The sirens ranged from normal human hair colours from blonde, to more
unique such as purples and greens, and from busty, to large, and small
breasted, to black, white, and Asian. They stepped up, surrounding him
and his 'mermaid'. Now, to a man not in the know, this was a fantasy
come to life, but to a wise man, knew how dangerous they could be while
in the water.
They did not speak as they surrounded him, and they did not have vocal
cords in the same sense as humans, or a language. They just waited,
watching him while their sister had brightened, making little mewing
sounds of greeting. It dropped a few stern looks from a few of her sisters
as they smiled at her, looking relieved to see her again.
Harry took this as his cue to stand up. They stood cautiously, and
watched how he held their sister, the gentleness, and the trust she
showed in him made more relax. He then offered her to one of them, and
though a little reluctant the dark skinned mergirl went to her sister,
pulling her lovingly to her chest, kissing her lips with a shimmer of blue
light, it seemed to make the younger of the two look healthier.
He had heard rumours that a sirens kiss could heal, but sirens kept
themselves to themselves, except for when they needed a male to breed
with, but then that was easy stuff, so there had never been any real
proof. It was a beautiful and caring sight. It was a love deeper than he
knew; that of siblings. It made him feel the loss of his own sisters, and
want to hurry to them as soon as possible, to protect them.
It took him a moment to realise that a few of the sirens were thanking
him as they curled their bodies around him. They each hugged him, and
kissed his lips before pulling back, leaving an emotional impression of
their love for their sister and their gratitude.
He accepted every kiss, feeling the thanks, and having been given
something special; something he realised from the thoughts that slid to
him through the kisses were meant for family, which meant they now
considered him family.
He smiled as they had finished, surprised when he went to say bye to his
siren that the one holding her kissed him, deep with a long tongue, and
he realised these weren't just her thoughts and feelings but his girls too;
her love, her eternal gratitude, her everything.
She pulled back after a full minute of a dizzying kiss and smiled,
gesturing her sister, in her arms where she was sleeping. He knew she
would pass on his feelings and thoughts of her to her sister when she
woke, so nodded his head, grateful.
"Oh what an amazing sight, and so many new pets...!"
The sirens went from gentle to vicious in seconds, claws, fangs, and
hissing as they all looked over as a fat blob of a woman stood on the
beach with around thirty or more leering men. Voldemort's Death Eaters,
and bound at their feet was that young Tonks auror and the lykan man.
Harry looked up, as the moon was not full. If this woman did this two
nights ago this could have been bad for them as lykan were not likely
going to attack sirens in the water as they6 were vicious monsters, not
stupid. The lykan was badly beaten and unconscious, and though pretty
bruised up Tonks was still awake, crying in her binds, and gagged.
"How the hell did you get here you fat slob?!" Harry demanded, enraged.
She laughed as if not insulted and her Death Eaters sneered and hissed in
outrage, obviously caught in the woman's lies. "I placed tracers on that
useless wench just in case I had to find her, and where does she lead us
but to the Sirens Cove!"
"I guess that means you're never leaving this island!" he said, turning to
the siren holding her injured sister. "Take her… take Misty," he said,
using the name from the memories… a thought of a name that came to
him, as they do not seem to have names in the traditional human sense.
"Take her and get out of here. I can handle these losers, and trust me…
none of them will leave alive!"
She looked reluctant for a moment before the dark skinned beauty
nodded and dropped backwards falling into and under the water, her
sisters following, gone, even though the Dark Fatty and her gang of Death
Eaters tried firing magic to stop them, it was no good, they were too fast,
and this was their territory, their island.
The Dark Fatty looked back at Harry, fuming. "You foolish boy, it doesn't
matter, I'll get it back, and some more too, maybe I'll sell some as
playthings!"
Harry sneered as he made some gestures with his hands, in a pattern. The
Dark Fatty only survived as two Death Eaters surprisingly got in the way
as two huge whips of salt water blazed out steaming with a fiery heat and
sliced them in two before dropping back down with a splash.
He dropped back into the water after a shocked pause the Death Eaters
opened fire. Harry was holding his breath, using magic so he could see
under water. They were quite pathetic when it came to spell choice. They
were trying to curse him, but curses or jinxes would not pass through the
water. They should have been trying cutting hexes, bludgeoners, or any
force type spells really, or even aqua manipulation.
Though, he wondered why he was complaining. Their idiocy was his
luck. He swam around; out of their line of fire, sticking his head up, he
smirked. He lifted his right hand, concentrating a small light flickered to
life growing into a baseball sized yellow orb of light.
He aimed and the orb flew, twirling when it dived down at his command-
gesture and in a huge explosion, three Death Eaters met their end. The
other Death Eaters and the Dark Fatty looked around, now showing
concern but Harry had already moved, using the distraction to get back
onto the beach, hidden behind some rocks and trees.
Streams of blue light arched around Harry's right hand as it materialised
a silver handgun, nearly completely full with bullets. He poked his head
round to see the nervous Death Eaters and the Dark Fatty shouting at
them to get him, ordering them to get in the water.
That was a very grave mistake as several obeyed, walking into their
knees. They seemed to all just slip in, down, gone and they were not
going to come out alive as Harry waited. Then the first brutalised body
broke the surface followed by the others, one after the other. It was kind
of creepy since he knew how gentle sirens really were, but threaten them
and their home and they could be vicious.
The Death Eaters were starting to realise that they were not fighting the
usual type and that their lives really were in danger, and that Harry
alone was dangerous, but calculate in the sirens waiting in the ocean and
that just added to the danger because they could not run to the sea for
protection, only to their deaths.
Harry smirked as he stood, using the horror scene as a distraction; he
fired, hitting a few, killing two men and wounding five more. The
wounded just dropped to the sand crying and whimpering. Harry hid
again as the others turned; trying to curse him, but the rocks just blocked
them.
He has to wonder whether any of them had heard about other magic's
that might blow up his cover, or transfigure it to move or something, but
as before, their ignorance was his gain.
"ENOUGH!" the Dark Fatty screamed and the firing stopped. "Who the
hell do you think you are boy?!" she screamed in her anger.
"Harry King. You are?" he answered, amused as his gun disappeared since
it was out of ammo and he had no more for that type of weapon.
"I am the Dark Lady Selene!" she said proudly. "I have been biding my
time, feeding off the misery of others for years, now you hope to ruin
everything, KING!"
"Well that explains the weight issues," he responded, amused while he
could near feel her hate. "Though, I have to wonder what Voldemort
would think if he saw you using his minions without permission?!" he
said, sensing the Death Eaters flinching, either at the name, or about
what Voldemort would do to them if he found out.
"I care not!" she replied, not so angry now. "But I do know what heroes
care about. They care about innocent people, like Nymphadora Tonks
and the werewolf, Remus Lupin!"
"Oh, crap… that's not playing fair!" he said, annoyed, almost winging.
"Wait… Nymphadora… that's freaking hilarious!" he said laughing as he
stood with his hands up. He could see the auror trying to give him the
evil eye, but her whimpers and tears ruined it.
The Death Eaters all held him at wand-point while she smiled, her wand
pointed at Tonks. "Good boy, now throw down your wand! Having a hero
in a cage will be most pleasing, maybe I can capture Potter too, and you
can share. It would certainly show the competition that I was best!"
Harry sighed, rolling his eyes as he just flickered away, appearing right
by her feet, grabbed Tonks and Lupin and flickered back behind his rock
out of sight. The Dark Fatty just stood stock still, staring at the place by
her feet in shock.
"These guys are fucking idiots!" Harry said to Tonks while she was just
looking up at him, blinking in surprise while he untied her, she nearly
hugged the life out of him before pulling back, embarrassed and pulling
her gag off to help untie Lupin, but kept quiet at Harry's gesture.
The Dark fatty screamed after a moment. "You incompetent buffoons...!
It's no wonder Voldemort was getting nowhere! Which one of you was in
charge of the anti-apparation jinx?"
"N-none of us..." one of the men braved. He was shuddering, and
speaking slowly, fearful. "Y-you said that-." She was obviously blaming
him as she just killed him, not even a little torture as a first strike.
"Okay, King! I see, maybe its money you want, and I have plenty of
money!"
"I would like plenty of money!" he initially agreed. "But no can do. I
won't abandon by values no matter the sum!" he said as he created a
silvery orb between his hands winking at Tonks while she watched in
awe. He stood and threw it like a grenade.
The Death Eaters all jumped out of the way, fleeing as it thudded and
sunk into the sand, making it glow white for a second before fading out.
The Death Eaters started getting up, looking at a little burnt spot with a
tiny weed sticking out, and before the others could warn against it, one
Death Eater plucked it out.
The ground started shaking, and the Death Eaters screaming. Tonks had
to look, grimacing as the sand was spinning like a vortex swallowing
Death Eaters to their doom, and when it stopped only five Death Eaters
and the Dark Fatty survived.
Harry now felt satisfied enough in his own talents to stand up. He had
never had such an easy battle; everyone he knew would have nullified his
sinkhole spell before or after it took effect. It only worked on sand or
really, really thick wet mud.
It was now obvious that the Death Eaters feared him. Tonks was just
peaking over the rocks, concerned with how she would explain this to
Dumbledore and her boss. Though, she couldn't help but admire the
young man and his talent for ass-kicking; he would be the best auror on
the force if he joined up, and the guy the corrupt crapped themselves
because when they saw him.
"Wow, looks like I've won!" Harry said in amusement as the Death Eaters
stepped back from him, but trying to keep away from the Dark Fatty too
as they could die either way.
That was when the Dark Fatty screeched as she had gotten too close to
the water, and in seconds several siren were out, dragging her kicking
and screaming into their domain and out of sight. That left the Death
Eaters alone and they were quivering, and in seconds threw down their
wands and surrendered, begging.
Harry walked out from around the rocks and closer, and even without a
drawn wand they kept moving back until one gasped. Looking down as
his shoe got wet.
"No!" he muttered quivering while his fellows looked to him confounded.
The sirens were so fast; the men disappeared in but a moment. The other
Death Eaters had not the chance to comprehend what had him panicked.
A beautiful blonde siren stepped out of the ocean a moment later, naked,
with a smile as men started bobbing up behind her, dead. She slid into
Harry's arms and let her lips brush his before they were kissing deeply,
holding each other tight when she pulled away, smiling after she had
given him the message from her people, welcoming him as their brother.
He smiled as he had accepted the honour in the kiss, and she stepped
back with a silent giggle, peaking him on the lips one last time before
slipping back into the water, and the last he saw of her was her golden
silvery tail splash once before she had swum too deep to see.
Turning he watched Tonks as she had found a wand and levitated Lupin
over. "Umm… what is all that kissing about?" she could not help but ask,
blushing as she checked out his fit body and wiping tear stains from her
eyes.
He laughed, shaking his head. "It is how they communicate, with touch,
kisses, emotions, and expressions. It is a great honour for a human to
share that."
"O-k," she said, shaking her head. "So how do we get off this island? I
don't know where we are, and looking, I couldn't apparate that far
anyway, and certainly not with Remus."
Harry sighed as he grabbed her arm, and the floating mans and they
disappeared only to reappear back in Hogsmead. Tonks looked around in
shock as Harry did not even look winded, from jumping hundreds of
miles.
"You should probably get him some medical attention!" Harry said with a
tired sigh. "I'm never going to catch a break am I?" he asked no one as
Tonks had quickly left, apparating her friend to hospital for some
treatment, for him and for her.
He sighed as he felt exhausted and needed a good night's rest as it was
now starting to get late. Therefore, he disappeared, only to reappear in
an old apartment in London that his grandpas used when he found him.
He now owned it and, yep he found a bed and collapsed boneless, asleep
before his head hit the pillow, but for a place not used it sure it was
clean.
However, once morning came and he stirred and stretched as he sat up,
coming he came face to face with two young women, one of which was
holding a cricket bat, both a little dirty and worse for wear, he was
startled.
The girl with the cricket bat held it threateningly. "Who are you and how
did you get in, we changed the locks? The owners haven't been here in
years!?"
Harry rubbed his head looking the girls over; though taking a sniff they
both had not washed in a while, they were quite the lookers with dark
hair and fair blue eyes. He figured they were sisters.
"Wow, I have cute squatters, and not drug peddling douche bags," he
commented, unconcerned about the older sister with the bat as he could
take it from her at any time with little fuss, but if it made her feel safer
he would let her keep it until she choose to put it down. "Oh, wait, you're
not drug peddling douche bags are you?"
"No," the younger of the two said with a small smile. "I'm Amanda, and
this is my big sister Lizzy-!"
"Shh!" Lizzy said trying to hush her, but she was too late.
Harry shrugged, smiling as he hoped out of bed, making the older
nervous as she eyed his solid chest, and realised from his muscles that he
was not a push over whereas many muscular men were. "How about we
make a deal?" he suggested, startling them.
"W-what kind of deal...?" Lizzy asked nervously as her cheeks darkened as
her mind went to naughty place's, which was the standard in situations
like that, but on TV, in films, online it was never such a good-looking
guy.
He laughed as he saw what she was thinking. "No, nothing like that...
you're both pretty, but I'm not a jerk," he said, rolling his eyes while they
both blushed sighing, and pleased with the compliment. "You can both
stay here, legally, rent free for as long as you want as long as you keep
the place good, tidy up, that sort of thing. Then every-so-often I'll need a
place to crash, and I do not like the couch so you either share with each
other or me, I'm not fussed, and then I'm a big believer in a delicious
meal when I come home."
"OK!" the younger girl said excitedly. "But the water and gas don't work
so we can't cook you a real awesome breakfast or let you have a shower.
Well, we can make you scrambled egg in the microwave; we have loads
of eggs? And then you can have them on toast; the toaster works?"
Harry smiled, shaking his head. "I don't get why the gas is off, but," he
said walking passed them, Lizzy putting her bat down as they followed
him to the bathroom where he touched the wall by the bathtub with
shower, muttered a few words and the girls gasped as the wall glowed
red, they heard some churning, then it stopped.
Harry then turned on the tap and mucky water came out until it cleared
and he turned it off. "It was just a blockage. I don't know about the gas.
I'll get someone around to look at it when I can as I don't want to risk
your lives trying to sort that. It could be dangerous."
"How did you do that?" Lizzy asked feeling scared and awed.
He looked at her smiling. "I'm a sorcerer," he said flicking his wrist, blue
light formed a large thick book in his hand. "Here, these are kiddie spells,
my friend Ocean… well, she finds them amusing, but all I can see is a
pretty cool way for novices to learn a few neat tricks in the mystic
department," he said handing her the large book.
"I can learn real magic?" Amanda asked hopefully; still baffled by
everything.
He shrugged. "Sure, you're not witches but you can become mystics. I'm
not promising you'll get very good, but if you want to try, this book is the
book you'll want to start out with," he said leading them out of the
bathroom and into the apartments lounge where that blue light
manifested some clothes on the couch.
"Oh, by the way, there are rules, and laws you would need to follow," he
said as he handed them a pamphlet. "I've broken pretty much all of these
one's, but this pamphlet pretty much just states the obvious."
"Why are you-?" Lizzy tried to ask.
However, he interrupted, answering. "Because I'm going to be staying
here from time to time, it will be less stressful if you're a part of who I
am, and I can sense your potential. And unless you want to watch, I'm
going to get changed now. I only smell of salt water and don't want a
cold shower."
"Sorry!" they both chimed leaving the room with their new and intriguing
book.
Harry exited after he got dressed in some black cargo trousers, black tee,
and some white running shoes. Stretching a little, he felt good and found
the girls in the kitchen having made some breakfast. He ate with them in
the lounge and answered questions all morning before he put up some
wards and had to leave in search of his sisters.
He gave Amanda and Lizzy his phone number to call him if they needed
too, and took their Pay As You Go numbers and left with a grin in a
splash of wind.
"Do you think we can learn to do that?" Amanda asked her sister, excited.
Lizzy looked at her shrugging. "I don't know, but do you think he will do
me?"
"Us!" her sister replied, smirking when they both burst out laughing at
how lucky they had gotten.
4. Jinxes Fly in Hogsmeade
King of Bandit
Chapter 4
Jinxes Fly in Hogsmead
It was the next morning when Harry appeared once more in Hogsmead
looking around. He just had to find his sisters, or someone who knew
where they would be. That meant he had to find an informant, which led
him passed the boarded up coffee shop and to the Three Broomsticks
pub. It looked nicer than that coffee place, and a likely place to find a
blabbermouth.
He stopped in the entrance where he could hear and see inside. It was
crowded for lunchtime, and taking a huge sniff of the air, the only thing
he could smell was the delicious scent of food. Then to add, the place was
not decked out in tat that made you want to tear out your eyes.
"Excuse me, fella, what you doing'?"
He was a little startled as he looked around to see a giant of a man with
shaggy brown beard and hair wearing a huge moleskin coat. His beetle
black eyes were trying to peer into the pub to see if he could see what
Harry was looking at.
"Oh, sorry, man," he replied sheepishly. "It's just the last time I went into
a… place, here, it was the coffee shop and I had to foil some… things evil
scheme and free all of those adorable pixies and a siren."
"Wow, that were you!" he boomed out with a large grin taking Harry's
hand and shaking it and him. "It's a pleasure… Rubeus Hagrid, but just
Hagrid is fine! I'm keeper of keys and grounds at Hogwarts, not to
mention Magical Creatures teacher. So are you an investigator of some
sorts?" he asked as he finally let Harry's hand go.
"Oh, no... not really," Harry said rolling his shoulders to make sure he
was fine after the handshake to end all handshakes, and he thought those
metro sexual (lame/limp) handshakes were bad. "I was just in the right
place at the right time. I took the siren home, and that bitch had escaped
and followed, captured the auror too…"
He nodded his head readily. "Yeah, I ain't heard the full tale yet, but I
heard a bit. Wow, that were you, too. You do get around. Let me buy you
a drink, as a thank you for saving me friends. I can tell you're new
around here, and I know lots about Hogwarts and Hogsmead if you
want?"
"Wow, thanks man, that will be cool," he said leading the friendly man in
through the crowd to the bar where they found two free seats to one
corner. It is not often that heroics got you a free drink.
"Afternoon Hagrid!" greeted a busty older woman who quite honestly still
had 'it' and then some. "Who's your cute friend?" she asked all
flirtatiously.
"Harry King," he introduced himself. "It was nice to meet you," he
answered for himself shaking her hand.
Hagrid just chuckled. "He's the boy who uncovered the goings on in the
coffee shop; hero he is," he said surprising her. "I'll have my usual
Rosmerta, and whatever, Harry's having."
"I'll just have lemonade!" he answered at her look.
However, she looked baffled. "I'm sorry, I've been asked for that before,
by muggle-born kids, but I don't actually know what it is."
He sighed, rolling his eyes. "Then I'll have a half-and-half chocolate and
vanilla milkshake."
"Now that I can do," she said with a smile. "Anything else...?"
"A bowl of fries wouldn't go amiss," he answered with a grin as he had
only had some scrambled eggs and a bit of toast that morning so he was
starting to get peckish. She nodded and quickly rushed off to get their
order and it was a surprise as a certain girl wearing a blue robe with
decent clothes underneath brought them their drinks and fries.
"H-hi… Harry, right?" she said timidly, and he nodded, amused with her
still. "I wanted to properly apologise about before and thank you for
rescuing me. Rosmerta took me in and gave me a job, so I'll be fine now,
thank you very much," she said blushing.
"I'm glad," he answered, smiling. "You look much better now, and don't
hesitate to call on me if you want to, you know, now you're not drugged
up," he said suggestively while she backed up, giggling and blushing,
bumping into things, which he found endearing before she rushed off,
heart pounding.
Harry laughed while Hagrid hadn't seemed to have noticed their 'chat' as
he was busy starting on some fries from this giant bowl set between them
next to his giant tankard, and Harry's huge milkshake with whipped
cream and a cherry on top.
"At least the magical world does something right," he said munching on a
fry. "These are some nice fries, and," he used his straw and tried some of
his shake. "And dam that's nice, like a drinkable ice cream, clears the
head, refreshes, and wakes you up after a hard day."
Hagrid chuckled, nodding his head. "It sure is! Rosmerta's place does you
right," he readily agreed. "So, got something interesting you need to be
doing here. I take it you're not from the UK, or You-Know-Who would be
more wary."
"I was born in Wales but I haven't been in the UK for a while now, but
mainly South America and Africa, but me and my grandpas had been all
over the place really. I'm actually here looking to fined Rose and June
Potter!" he answered, shrugging when he noticed the giant of a man had
been startled.
"Why would you want to find them for?" he asked in a hushed voice,
unable to hide his surprise.
"To protect them," he answered, rolling his eyes. "If Lily Potter is really
dead then that leave James, and I shall not allow that moronic bastard to
ruin their lives any further. Plus, it's kind of a big brothers job and
responsibility!"
"Y-you can't be," he replied eying Harry up and down, and though there
were many differences between him and James and the way they acted;
it was the eyes, just like Rose and June's, just like Lily's.
"Y-you're him, but I heard you were dead!" the giant of a man said in
awe. "Oh my god, it really is you! Lily would have… she would have
been so happy just knowing you were alive, and look at you; the hero!"
"Yeah, well," he muttered, embarrassed, turning away. "You never really
know you're going to miss something until it's gone."
"I guess you're right," he replied, not sure what else he could say when
suddenly someone in the pub screamed.
They spun around to see men and woman pulling on masks and drawing
wands as one of them already killed some innocent man. They were
already laughing as the ground shook and explosions burst outside with
deathly screams and people running passed the windows in their terror.
"A Death Eater flash-mob...?! Well that's certainly new," Harry muttered
to himself sighing. "This is getting to be ridiculous. Well, okay it was
getting ridiculous yesterday, but now!" he was just ranting to himself as
he had already moved, having snuck up on one he had him in a chocker
hold, snapping his neck he dropped him to the floor in moments.
He grabbed a straggling Death Eater by her robes and slammed her
painfully into a wall where she dropped her wand. "Please tell me you're
not working for the Dark Fatty because that would mean the bitch got
away again!"
Harry could see the fear through the eyeholes in her mask as she shook
her head frantically as she saw her dead comrade behind him, and
knowing this one was not going easy on them, instead, being violent and
uncaring about taking their lives.
"W-we work only for the Dark Lord!" she stammered out so he pulled her
back towards him and pushed her back, smashing her head on the wall
she fell down out cold.
He felt a little bad for her; she sounded young enough that peers or older
family may have pressured her into joining under risk of dead, but she
and others still could have sided against this. He was sure that
Dumbledore would have taken them in and offered them safe haven,
even if he was barmy and a little off his rocker; he was still smart, and as
wizards go, mind-bogglingly powerful.
Turning he was impressed to see Hagrid swinging Death Eaters around
like ragdolls while some less experienced tried stunning him but the
stunners had no effect, so Harry took a wild guess that the man was half-
giant by that and his size.
Walking up behind two, Harry grabbed them by their heads and face
planted them into tables. It was disheartening to see few people fighting
back as others screamed and ran in circles, and Death Eaters, laughing,
were torturing more. They had not noticed the violent resistance.
Harry took advantage of that throwing two more clearly through the
pubs glass window, cutting them up they fell twitching and whimpering
outside where scum like them should be. He dodged down, back-hand-
springing to his feet he picked up a heavy circular table and threw it,
almost like a Frisbee spinning with the momentum and using two hands.
It smashed into his attackers' throat and he was not getting up anymore,
if ever after that.
Looking around the pub was secure, with the wimps tying up those that
might wake and looking terrified. Harry looked out of the shattered
window as many more Death Eaters marched in a large group, blasting
this that and the other leaving dead witches and wizards in their wake,
and not caring about their ages.
It made him grit his teeth in anger as he watched adults fleeing passed a
small boy as he was in the path of the Death Eaters crying, on his butt.
Harry did not even need to think about it as he jumped through the
window and ran, outside, at them.
The Death Eaters spotted him and tried to hex him, but he weaved
around their spells and snatched up the boy into his arms as he skidded
to a stop.
"Barrier of Light and Hope, ASSIST!" he roared out as several spells came
for them. Harry cradled the boy in his arms while he cried and
whimpered more. He could not be any older than five years old, and
Harry hated to think that his parents had been killed, but even more, that
they would have abandoned the child to save themselves.
Harry and the boy blazed with light as the spells smashed into an
invisible barrier. The spell was rippling transparent light under the
onslaught. However, Harry was already fleeing back to the pub in that
moment where Hagrid stood waiting.
"You Okay?" the giant man asked, looking him over for injury.
"Yeah," he nodded, handing the crying boy over to Rosmerta as she stood
in the doorway, taking him and cradling him protectively, getting all the
luck in her bosom.
"They're not very powerful, just large in numbers," he continued, shaking
off that naughty thought as he had important things to think about, like
the 'battle' right now. "Numbers can outdo talent if there's enough. Check
this, though!" he said rushing back out.
Harry stood on the centre of the path both hands out palms pointing
forward, right palm flat to the back of the other hand. He smirked as he
concentrated, pulling forth his magic. His power seemed to supercharge
the atmosphere, making it crackle, and heat the air.
"Beseech, I God of War, bring down the Hounds of Hell!" he roared out,
his palm glowing red with flickering flames as he concentrated further on
his cast. "I bring forth the rush of flames, and here forth comes the Reign
of Fire!"
The flames on his hands burst out creating a complicated magic circle
with fire seals, brands, and runes with dog shapes and patterns of fire, as
tall as his body in diameter, round.
The Death Eaters seemed to stop as one when the circle of fire pulsed and
blazing flame dogs burst out, sucking the flames away from the
runological mark, several of them, charging the Death Eaters, melting
away the flaming circle as they went, until it had completely gone.
Harry dropped to one knee, panting, as that kind of magic took a lot out
of him, winding him for a bit, as it was a summoning cast rather than
something simpler as a temporary barrier.
The dogs tore into screaming Death Eaters, taking their numbers down
through death or injury, ten percent before they fizzled out, running out
of magic.
The Death Eaters had tried everything they could think of against the
dogs, even water, but idiots like them would never have the knowledge
or talent to dispel them, and wizards had a dark spell similar, so they
should have known to run.
Hagrid surprisingly helped Harry back onto his feet, looking very
impressed. The Death Eaters had stopped; this was no longer a laughing
matter because someone had changed the rules, as that someone used
deadly magic against them. They now had to be cautious as they looked
to their burnt husked and chewed up comrades.
"Got any more tricks like that, Harry?" Hagrid asked as the Death Eaters
were starting to come around screaming about their only being two of
them when suddenly white beams of light blast down in a whoosh like
something from Star Trek. They had apparated at speeds, so it was a lot
more noticeable and showy than blinking away and blinking back, which
was 'slow', or even a pop or crack as you displace the air doing it
normally.
Tonks had turned up looking better than before. She was with that red
haired woman, Amelia or whatever, and that man with black shaggy
hair, now getting a none-drugged look, he looked familiar, Sirius, that
name? Then the lykan, Lupin was with them, and a large black auror and
finally a scared auror with a peg leg, Mad-Eye-Moody from what he knew
about the magical UK's cops he was retired.
They just ignored Harry and Hagrid and started flinging spells; though
not deadly were obviously intent on wounding rather than stunning.
They likely learnt that a stun victim could be woken up to fight straight
away, whereas an injured Death Eater needed the doctor to heal them
first, which they would not have on the field of battle.
Harry's right hand sparked with yellow light as a ball of energy grew into
it, and fired. It rocketed passed Sirius's ear and smashed into the Death
Eater ranks as they had started defending themselves.
The man looked back at him with wide eyes before he grinned. "I like
your style kid!" he said when Harry charged, knocking him over as a
killing curse came overhead. "Whoa, I own you one," he said as they got
up, hiding behind rocks at the side of the road.
"Coffee anyone...?" Harry replied, amused.
"Right," Sirius said laughing. "I owe you two."
Harry grinned as he stood; the Death Eaters were actually falling back.
He moved, running at them, weaving in and out of spells. Some of them
fled, leaving just five. He got to them pretty fast, running up the side of a
damage-ridden building, he hopped off, coming down the Death Eater
could only screech in horror, and it felt like a wall had fallen on his face,
he was down.
Harry skidded round, his right hand slamming into another's throat, then
grabbing his robe, pulling him closer his knee buried in his gut. He spat
up blood, wide eyed, gasping for breath, his mask falling off. Harry held
him as the other three fired, using him as a shield he screamed until a
killing curse put him out.
Harry lifted him, using him as his own personal human shield he ran at
them, feeling the spells hit through the body before throwing it at one
Death Eater who caught it instead of moving, and dropped his wand.
Harry dived out of the way of a curse and it hit the one holding his dead
comrade, causing him to scream in agony as it chopped off a hand, now
holding the body in his arms, he went down with a swift leg sweep,
leaving two.
The remaining Death Eater took shaky steps back as Harry took his time
standing up straight. He could see the fear, smell it in the air. The rules
were now out of the window so they fired. They had no choice but to
fight. They forgot, in their fright that they could still apparate or
surrender to the aurors.
Harry dodged, sliding under a spell his left foot kicked up, shattering
whatever this one had between his legs. He squeaked like a little mouse
before Harry flicked himself up and his left fist shattered the purists jaw,
knocking him out to the floor. Harry had to jump back as the final Death
Eaters tried his luck again.
Harry looked at him as he stopped firing and started walking slowly
towards him while he was now shaking so much Harry did not need to
dodge. He tried to hit Harry but the spell just flew wide and Harry kept
coming, nonstop like a juggernaut.
"P-please get away from me you monster!" the Death Eater cried out in
despair as no one was coming to his rescue.
He tried firing again, but his hand would not stop moving, and after a
few moments, he could not even get his wand to do anything he was so
scared, his whole life flashing before his eyes, and it wasn't very
impressive, but very sad.
"Monster, says the man who tortures, mains, and torments the weak and
defenceless!" Harry hissed out a reply as he was in the man's space and
tore off his mask, dropping it to the floor as if dissolved into nothing,
being a conjure like all of their masks.
The Death Eater was not much older than he was, with tears trailing
down his cheek. "You sicken me with your pathetic need to hate for hates
sake!" Harry sneered before head-butting the pathetic creature, breaking
his nose and knocking him out to the ground.
However, Harry turned as he heard children screaming. He hadn't seen
them, and they were holding two children hostage, floating above their
heads. They saw him coming; they were terrified, and a few fired spells
that he dodged with ease, increasing his speed towards them as they
were down a side road, and making everyone who saw him blink in
surprise, since he only got faster. He jumped up, spinning twice at a side
angle in between two killers, landing lightly in a sweeping motion he
continued; his momentum unfazed.
Harry King could now hear the two children cries and screams louder, as
he dodged left and then right, speeding right to the Death Eaters, and
ducking a spell, under that Death Eaters wand. He grabbed his wrist with
his right hand holding his arm outstretched, tight, all in one motion as he
came up his left fist smashed into the Death Eater's elbow.
The masked man screamed in pain as bone splintered out of his skin,
splattering blood from under his sleeve. Harry pulled the Death Eater to
his knees with his damaged arm, as he cried and whimpered. Harry then
released him and smashed him out could and bloodied cracking the mask
with his right fist. The enemy slumped to the ground: unmoving.
Another spell came at Harry from the side. He bent far back, leaping off
his feet he back flipped landing lightly. He sped forward with the
momentum, leaping up, legs face height, and with a left turning spinning
slice kick, his right leg smashed into another Death Eater's face. Blood
spilt in gushes as the dark enemy screamed. He was sent hurtling twenty
feet, trailing blood, where he landed unmoving, and his mask split and
fell off in two, each half to either side of his blood oozing face.
Harry used the shock the other Death Eaters were in to his advantage,
and punched another with a left and right to the chest. He screeched in
agony as they splintered ribs and he spat up a gush of red blood before
the young Bandit King, right hooked him flying, a few feet away where
he did not get up.
Harry then seemed to disappear before the Death Eater's eyes as they
shook of their shock to fight back when a boom of strength caught their
attention, behind. Harry appeared out of nowhere with his fists firmly
planted in two Death Eater's stomachs, and they were lifted from the
ground, dangling limply on his fists, blood gushing out of the sides of
their masks from their mouths. Harry just let them drop to the ground,
turning he glared fiercely at his opponents', they acceptably stepped
back, very shaken.
"Five left," commented Harry to himself. Then the two Death Eater's
levitating the children stopped the spell to fight, firing at him.
Harry growled as the screaming children fell as if in slow motion. He
moved beyond speed to get to them. He dodged spells, left and right. The
children seemed to be about five. He had to stop their fall. He sped
forwards, ducking he dove under a killer, his hands hitting the ground he
sprang up, the bottom of his left boot crashing into the nearest Death
Eater's knee, smashing it to smithereens and bringing him to the ground.
Harry sprang onto his feet and ran at another Eater, dodging spells as he
moved away, backing up. However, Harry was much too fast, he reached
his target and ran up the man's body, smashing his right boot into the
dark wizards face, blood poured as the man fell unconscious, crashing to
the ground.
Harry seemed to fly for a moment in the direction of the screaming
children as they fell. His arms outstretched, reaching them in flighty-fall;
he grabbed them both around the waist, and they in that moment of
shock scrambled to hold him as tight as they could as they continued
towards the ground.
The boy and girl closed their eyes as the ground came up to meet them.
However, they did not crash down but landed, slightly heavy, but
nothing else. The kids opened their eyes to see they were now safe and
only three Death Eater's were left standing with looks of horror, and one
crying on the ground in agony, cradling his knee.
Harry had landed near where Hagrid now stood with the other adults
with looks of shock and awe.
Harry pried the children off and shoved them into Hagrid's temporary
custody since he was a teacher. Hagrid shook his head clear, noticing the
children in his arms.
"Don't worry kids… I'm just going to take care of the rest of the garbage,"
said Harry with a small smile when he noticed they looked as if they did
not want him to leave.
Harry then scowled fiercely at the three remaining Death Eaters and they
staggered back looking past the point of fear, feeling nothing but terror.
He charged, seemingly flying across the ground. The Death Eater's saw no
choice, so they fired spells. It seemed they were so scared they forgot
they could apparate away and escape.
The young Bandit King skidded round a green spell, ducking one of dark
orange, and jumped up, forward flipping a few feet in the air over
another green beam, as his feet hit the ground he stepped with speed to
his right, avoiding another killer, all the while never slowing his dash.
Harry dodged another dark orange spell, dashing slightly left, and then
dropped to his right, rolling under a black beam before using his right
hand and arm, flicking himself to his feet only leaving a small trail in the
dusty ground; his momentum still not stalled, like an unstoppable
juggernaut once more, and once more these Death Eater's were terrified.
He screeched across the dirty ground seemingly getting faster, he ducked
another killer, stopping his dash he let himself slide on the dirt, as if
surfing, he kicked out his left leg as he passed one, tripping the Death
Eater flew down, crashing to the floor with a whimpering groan.
Harry then stood, grinning darkly as he witnessed the two others he still
slid towards before he moved. Their eyes widened in horror as they could
not even think of a spell; it was useless to even try. Harry was beyond
them in power, skill, and knowledge.
"It's quite hot out here," Harry commented loudly and coldly. "Why don't
I cool you both down," he laughed as they stumbled back. "Cooling Rain,
God of the Cold… Chill!" he roared: A huge eruption of snow and cold
blast out of his cupped hands, as if a rippling wave of snow and ice
blazed into existence before the young warrior, rolling in droves towards
the Death Eater's. They were routed to the spot as the ground froze
around them, the cold was overwhelming. They could see Harry through
the flames of ice as if he was within them with his emerald eyes furious
as they made the mistake of angering him.
It then hit, and the two remaining Death Eater's screamed in blood
curdling agony for a moment as they were flash frozen into ice statues.
The people were watching with mouths agape, as they had already
witnessed such incredible feats, and realised in horror that the Death
Eaters were being toyed with as they hadn't stood a chance against him.
"Whoa, that was just troublesome," he commented to the giant man as he
stopped before him with a sheepish grin, and the children surprisingly
jumped him, hugging hold tight.
Harry sighed slightly. "Sshh, its ok… what kind of hero would I be if I
didn't save you and kick bad guy butt, huh?" he asked jokingly as he
looked to the children he had saved.
The boy and girl stifled some giggles, pulling back to look at him they
wiped tears from their eyes. "See," he continued with a reassuring smile.
"No need to cry now," he chuckled as they gave small smiles.
"T-Tim... Marry," a blonde woman gasped out interrupting as she came to
her senses, stepping forward with tears shinning in her eyes.
"Mommy!" the boy and girl chimed stretching out for her.
"Oh, my babies," she cried as Harry let her take them both from his arms,
hugging them tight herself, lavishing them with kisses before looking up
at the young warrior with grateful tears in her blue eyes. "Thank you so
much, how can I ever repay you?" she asked desperately.
Harry shrugged impishly, noting the woman was quite hot, but was
probably married. Anyway asking for sexual favours for saving lives was
just beyond wrong and not his style.
"Umm, it's fine… I'm just glad they're okay… you know, Death Eater's are
just bothersome morons," he joked to release the tension. "It was my
pleasure to teach them some respect for pain." The woman just nodded,
thankful her babies were fine, thankful the young warrior was there to
save them all.
Harry turned to the others as they were brushing themselves down,
panting for breath while they looked to him in amazement as a sorcerer
of his design had not been seen before, by them at least.
"Well, later guys," he said with a cheery wave, surprising them. "I have
stuff to do, sisters to find…" he said, shrugging as he blast away in a
beam of light. It would not occur to him until later that they would know
how to find his sisters.
"Whoa, that kid has some moves and then some!" Sirius broke the others
out of their stupor.
"Dam, I wanted to speak to him about possible careers-!" Amelia said but
trailed off as Sirius snorted.
"Stop trying to recruit," he said, rolling his eyes. "Anyway, he doesn't
exactly seem to play by the book or any book for that matter."
"You should have seen this spell he used though!" Hagrid said, holding in
his excitement. "It created these burning dogs made out of fire. I've never
seen magic like that before."
"We should see Dumbledore about this?!" Tonks suggested reasonably.
"Maybe he'll know something about him, or these weird spells he used
without a wand?"
"I doubt he does, but you're right, let's go," Amelia agreed, nodding.
"Someone will clean this up…"
"No need m'dear!"
They turned to see Albus Dumbledore with several staff members looking
out of breath, having run. He was an old man with long white beard and
hair with half-moon specs and sparkling blue eyes, wearing purple robes
with gold stars and moons on them.
"I discovered the attack, but it seems we were late!" the old man said
with a sigh. "I must admit I'm not as spry as I once was. Please forgive
me," he said before turning to his staff. "Please if you could at the least
give the poor fallen this day some dignity that would be most appreciated
while I get the details of what has transpired."
They all went off to do just that as he looked to the aurors. "What
happened here? I overheard you mention someone else?"
"Yeah, Harry King," Hagrid said eagerly. "He said he's here to look after
his sisters. His sisters! As in, June and Rose," he added causing some
gasps but Dumbledore acted as if that wasn't unusual for long lost
runaway brothers to suddenly turn up, and kick the poop out of the bad
guys.
"I see," the old man replied, nodding his head in thought before looking
around at the mess. "And Mr. King caused all of this fighting the Death
Eaters?"
"No, not all the damage; we got a lot of them ourselves!" Sirius said, still
smarting that he did not recognise Harry for who he was. "But he used
some pretty neat tricks and the last five... well, before those guys who
took some children hostage; well he beat them up without even using any
magic. He just moved through the spells, and was so fast and strong...
with all of them really. It was awesome! But you should have seen him
when he saved those little kids."
"I see," the old man frowned with a small smile. "So… can't get a Defence
against the Dark Arts teacher, huh Severus… no this year's not yours, you
have to stay with potions…?" the old man said muttering to himself in
thought. "Youngest teacher, ever, yes, yes," he said not paying attention
to the grimaces from the aurors or Hagrid brightening. "You must come
to my office. If that is what he is like without a wand…? I must see the
memories with my own eyes."
"What about Harry?" Remus interrupted, concerned. "He's gone looking
for the girls, and he seemed to be a trouble magnet."
"No, no, no, don't be silly," said Dumbledore smiling. "He's just the
curious sort, reminds me a bit of me, only more violent; a sign of the
different times. He finds trouble, because trouble is around to find. Come
along," he said leading the way back towards the castle.
"Well mate, if trouble does find him, he'll be in great company with Rose
as trouble finds her too," Sirius said patting his friends shoulder as they
followed the group up to Hogwarts.
"Well, I suppose I kind of own him twice now," Remus answered with a
sigh while Sirius laughed at him.
"Three times!" he corrected, grinning.
Remus smirked. "Twice," he corrected the correction. "He didn't save me
today!" he said while Sirius pouted.

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Jing
King of Bandit
Chapter 5
The King of Flames
Harry appeared in Diagon alley, shuddering, he really wasn't keen on
apparation. However, did not want to be bothered by those incompetent
or late aurors once they got to Hogsmead so left quickly. At least he was
stationary his time. It was more sickening when apparating while in
motion. Shaking his dizzying head clear, he glanced around the magical
shopping district of Diagon Alley in London.
He chuckled lightly to himself that everyone was rushing around here
too, just like in Hogsmead. He wondered where he could get a room for
the night as he looked around. Then he just grinned as he spotted an ice
cream parlour; sweets now worry about where to stay later. He would
have to remember to get Amanda and Lizzy something later too.
He strolled forward, straight towards the ice cream shop, his stomach
already roaring its quiet approval since he had not eaten since that
morning where he got some scrabbled egg.
Harry entered the parlour, a few people sat nervously around inside at
tables, eating. He just smiled and approached the counter with a huge
smile lighting his face as his eyes caught sight of the huge selections of
different ice creams and toppings.
"What can I get you?" a plump man asked him with a nervous smile.
Harry just grinned eagerly. "Hmm, well it all looks so nice; I think I'll just
stick with a standard mint chocolate chip though."
The man nodded, pulling out a cone and scooping on two scoops of light
green and white ice cream with little chocolate bits in, handing it over.
"That will be two knuts please," he said with a brighter smile.
Harry then rummaged in his left pocket and pulled out a large gold coin,
handing it over, as he licked a bit of his ice cream. "Err, keep the change,"
he answered with a grin as he just walked off and out of the shop leaving
the man looking gobsmacked.
Harry walked with a smile through the Alley as he ate his delicious ice
cream, wondering where else he could visit when he saw a Quidditch
shop and walked closer, looking in through the window. He saw the
latest broom: The Firawind. It was beautifully crafted, and if he played
the magical sport he might have wanted one. However, he had never
even ridden a broom before. He had to wonder at that… why would they
still ride ordinary wooden brooms when they could have invented
something better by now, like in an alloy broom.
Harry shook off the thought with a sigh as he finished his ice cream and
looked around. The street was busy late in the afternoon with many
cowards rushing around to do whatever. Luck must have been on his side
right then, as no more Death Eaters and no more Dark Overlord
wannabes were up to no-good to bother him.
Though, he couldn't say that they were lucky running into him when he
had such kickass skills, but then they really couldn't claim to be all that
skilful at anything other than being cowards once they faced a real
dangerous opponent.
He was not sure where he was going to find anyone to point him in the
direction of Rosette or Juniper. Plus, he didn't want to clue in any more
of the douche bags or anything. It was bad enough with all those he has
fought so far. He would just have to search and hope for the best.
Wandering around a bit along the cobbled stone street, he ended up at
the large marble building of Gringotts Wizarding Bank. He looked to the
four goblins guarding the entrance with golden magical spears, curious.
He would love to sneak in and discover its secrets. It might even have
some unclaimed treasure he could 'claim'.
However, he had to shake off that thought, as he did not want to get into
some trouble that side of the law anytime soon in the wizarding world.
He shrugged that off; nonchalant when he saw something suspicious that
drew his attention to something.
It was a woman with long blonde hair dressed in the finest silk robes he
had ever seen, and he had seen many. She looked as if she did not like
the smell of being outside her mansion. He seriously had to wonder about
the snootiness of some people. He would have, could have, and should
have laughed she looked so ridiculous.
She was with a boy, teenage, in Harry's age range with his platinum
blonde hair slicked back like a sixties gangster. His grey eyes looked
around shiftily. He was also wearing some expensive robes, though not
silk, high end for sure.
Harry knew the wizarding world was quite the primitive mess. They had
evolved the fashions of robes in similar areas as muggle clothes,
obviously influenced, if slightly by muggle-borns, and it was a surprise
muggle-born influences had not gotten in more than just the odd dabble,
but he heard purebloods were real dicks when it comes to that.
Now normally to something suspicious, which should have nothing to do
with him, Harry would shrug it off as amateurs, and here, yes they were
certainly amateur, and really THAT obvious, but an amateur that goes to
Hogwarts no doubt needed investigating, and he had nothing better to do
anyway.
He had no lead as to where to find his sisters yet so it might be amusing.
In addition, they were heading into the dark and creepy alley, Knockturn
Alley, the 'dark magic' district. He shrugged that off as inconsequential as
he followed, not caring about the few odd looks he received.
It was only a little way in and he had already seen some old hag trying to
flog him fingernails, and loads of dark and filthy tramps accosting him.
He turned a bend, following the rich and dark duo when some large
tramp smelling of alcohol and pee tried to grab him, but in one, two,
three, and the thing had been winded, some extra teeth missing and a
broken jaw as he hit the ground.
Other, things had watched, waiting their turn but backed up and away
with wide eyes, looking around and trying to pretend that he didn't exist
anymore as they didn't want to try their luck, and get the crap beat out of
them.
Harry decided on something new as he continued following he pulled out
a long black robe like coat he had acquired not long ago hiding in
amongst some creepy ritual. (It was muggles, and they did not do much,
but they were idiots and got the chants wrong for one, and he and some
friends saved the reporter from them anyway before they could kill her,
she was a seriously stereotypical damsel in distress sometimes).
He pulled on the cloak, and pulled the hood up, but leaving the cloak
open for ease of movement, for kicking butt if… when the need arose.
This seemed to give him an older vibe or something as the scum kept
away from him after that, as long as he kept up a purposeful stride and
did not look lost they would leave him alone now. They probably thought
of him as a rich dark pureblood, either that or word had spread about the
tramp he decked and they did not want the same treatment.
Harry followed the boy and the woman who was probably his mother as
they looked alike (apart from the bad smell look, the boy made up for
that with his well-practiced sneering), around a few corners before they
entered some old shop: Borgin and Burkes.
It looked old, and it seemed like a place that sold illegal magic, they all
looked so similar and had that same scent about them; not to mention the
buzzing chill of the magic around it.
Harry internally shrugged and entered the shop since the people he was
following did not know him, saw no reason to not snoop, acting
suspiciously, which was more likely going to get him found out. He saw
the boy as he entered standing snootily by the counter with an ugly
looking man stood behind it, but the point of the woman's wand was in
his face as soon as the door closed with a tinkle of the bell.
"Why are you following us?" she demanded, pulling his hood down, her
grey eyes cold.
Harry just looked at her, putting on a quizzical expression. "I'm sorry,
who are you and why would I be following you?" he asked, unafraid, but
he was cautious as someone else, no, if he were right, three others were
in the shop, hidden, waiting, two of them were close. The last was
fluctuating magic, scared, but not captured, he didn't think, and an adult,
likely male.
"I'm sorry ma'am, I was just looking for a collection of tome, and I heard
that the 'management' here might be able to find their locations at the
very least," he continued with a sheepish shrug. "After all, I can make it
worth his time, and business is business. You should not be so paranoid
ma'am. I may have seen you up ahead; we were obviously going to the
same place."
She seemed to hesitate for a moment when some childish laughter came
from around a corner and a woman with ruffled black hair stepped out
from behind a curtain wearing a velvet black dress with a tight corset
boosting up her assets, and a black robe over the top left open to show
what was on offer. Her eyes were black and her grin was a sign of
madness as she waved her wand around carelessly.
"What is your name, little boy?" she demanded, giggling as she
threatened him with her wand.
"Harry King, at your 'service' Mrs. Bellatrix Lestrange!" he greeted her
with a mock bow, hiding any surprise about finding her. "You know, for
how long you've spent in Azkaban, you're still looking pretty fine, do you
want me to give you something your moronic inbred husband never
could?" he asked, rather amused, but the blonde boy looked at the scene,
holding back his terror.
However, she had paused rather than getting angry and laughed, giggling
like a stereotypical witch from muggle cartoons. "Oh, wee, little boy has
guts to talk to me like that."
"Yeah, well, I believe it's my civil duty if I'm not getting laid to capture
you right now!" he said nonchalant as they startled as they heard a snap
and the blonde woman looked down at her hand where her wand should
have been pointed at Harry to see it gone. She looked to his hands to see
the two halves of her snapped wand dropping to the floor; she staggered
back, eyes as wide as possible.
Harry smiled, as Bellatrix just looked dumbfounded. "See, it would have
been so much more fun to do the insanity out of you. I bet you just
haven't got what you really need, so you have to find other pursuits to
get your juices flowing!"
"You little brat!" she hissed. "Avada Kedavra!" she hissed, swiping her
wand in the air a huge emerald coloured spell shot at him.
Harry just yawned before a moment later grabbing an old shield from its
display and battering the curse away where it smashed a hole in the
window, burning a wall across the street. This just incensed her further
that he did not take her seriously, as he looked amused as he read the
card that gave a description of the shield.
"Shield of Bunnies...?" Harry read looking at the shield and it had a big
gold bunny engraved on it. "Are you serious, what a lame thing to make?"
"Who are you calling lame, bub!" they were all startled as the shield
talked, and looking further, the bunny looked tough with long sideburns
down his cheeks and muscles, like a drill sergeant. "And who said you
can use me for knocking away killing curses like I'm a bat, waking me up
from my nap!"
"Oh, gods... why did you have to wake him!?" Borgin, the shop owner
whined. "It took two whole weeks to shut it up last time!"
"Hey, don't speak about me like that!" it retorted angry. It might not have
been so funny if his voice matched his appearance, but it squeaked like a
bunny. "I'm a magical shield, you know!"
"What do you do then?" Harry asked as even Bellatrix had deflated her
anger, watching, baffled, which actually looked cute in an evil kind of
way.
"I…" he trailed off seeming embarrassed. "I can turn carrots into bunnies!"
he said and they all grimaced. "So don't hit me with another curse like
that, I doubt I would survive another."
Harry raised the shield while Bellatrix did not waste another second. It
screamed out as the curse hit, and though protecting Harry, the shield
shattered into pieces of bronze metal all over the floor.
"That was the stupidest thing I have ever seen!" Harry muttered and the
others just nodded along with him.
"Right, King, where were we?" Bellatrix demanded nonchalant. "Oh right,
I was about to kill you!" she said, firing another killing curse, but Harry
picked up a case of dark crap and it exploded as it took the impact.
"Whoever the first person is to say the killing curse was unstoppable was
a moron!" Harry said, smirking as he jumped back and used the blonde
woman as a shield as the stunner from her son hit her instead.
"Mum!" the boy said grimacing as she fell down unconscious.
"Calm down Draco!" Bellatrix said, rolling her eyes, near laughing. "You
were the idiot who stunned her, watch what he is doing, not what you're
doing. We have a sneaky bastard here. I haven't come across a wizard
like you before, trying to toy with me that you haven't even drawn your
wand yet, feisty, I like that!"
"I might up my game when you call out the werewolf and coward hidden
through that room!" he suggested as he gestured towards the curtain,
shocking them. "Then, I'm collecting the bounty on your heads, dead or
alive I don't care!"
She sneered but as instructed a huge man came out, eyes even darker
than Bellatrix's. His teeth were fanged and his fingernails as sharp as
claws, and filthy. He had dragged a whimpering fat lump of a man with
him. He reminded Harry of a rat, and oh yes, a big prize he would be.
"Peter Pettigrew!" he hissed such rage the man pooped himself looking up
to him, and even Bellatrix and the werewolf flinched. He knew of
Pettigrew. He was the man who betrayed the Potter's and sent Voldemort
after them in the first place, too afraid to die for those who would have
died for him.
Then his eyes lit upon the werewolf. "Fenrir Greyback!" he added, near
growling. He had heard of him too. "A man who enjoys attacking
children on the full moon, kidnapping and torturing them during the day
before setting them free, to run scared, and some survive to be like you!"
"I am pretty famous aren't I?!" he said, baring his filthy teeth in glee.
Harry looked from them and to the blonde boy. "Hey Draco, this is where
you get a choice in who you want to become. Psychopathic murderers
like them or a choice in another direction? Because I am not like those,
you would fight before. I'm in a whole new-league altogether!"
Greyback charged, but Harry did not look away from Draco, keeping his
eye contact before ducking the grab. Greyback overarched with wide
eyes, Harry stood, his right elbow slamming the wind out of the man's
lungs with a huge boom the wind cracked through the air.
The werewolf staggered back as his ribs and bones shattered and split,
blood spilling from his lips. He staggered back more, chocking on blood,
his face held a look of horror as he gasped for air he could not get.
Draco had looked away from Harry to the scene of one hit and Greyback,
one of the most deadly and dangerous Death Eaters dying, one hit, no
more. He could tell, even a werewolf needed to breath to live, and there
was no way he could heal that fast without magical attention. Harry
looked at the werewolf as he fell to his knees grasping at his throat,
clawing at himself as he was panicking.
Bellatrix was watching the scene in fascination, as it came to light that
Harry King had game to match up to his confidence. Then it was fact he
still had not drawn his wand, and that made her more cautious. She was
not stupid; she would not take him lightly any longer, and knew that if
he got too close she was as good as dead, or worse, captured alive.
It took a few minutes for Greyback to keel over dead, and Bellatrix
realised from the fact Borgin had ran away and Draco had gone into
shock that she couldn't expect any assistance.
She fired as soon as the dead man hit the ground as if that was a starting
shot, but Harry moved fast. It was as if she blinked and he was suddenly
at Pettigrew, and if not for the anti-apparation wards, she would say he
beat the world-apparation speed record. The air had thickened and
shifted with him, and she did not know how but he looked more
imposing, stronger even.
Harry got to Pettigrew and the side cabinets crunched and shattered,
cracking and splintering under his presence alone, causing her to feel a
small slither of the on-come of fear. Harry slammed down, grabbing
Pettigrew's head and smashing it into the ground, knocking him out,
braking his nose and face, cracking the dirty wooden floor he had been
whimpering on, with his pressure spreading out a small crater.
He stood up; emerald eyes alight with anger. "Your turn bitch!" he hissed
as a fireball appeared cupped in his right hand with the click of a finger.
She had to dive out of the way as he threw it, then making another and
another, throwing them faster each time, the store was being ripped to
pieces, wood set on fire, smoke clouding vision.
Bellatrix was screaming in rage and fear as dark artefacts burst open,
exploding around her. The shop was in a blaze of flames within minutes.
She looked out as the fireballs had stopped coming, choking on the fumes
to see him standing there in a torrent of flames licking at his body,
spinning controlled around him, she felt her bladder empty as her eyes
connected with his.
She quivered, as she had never seen something so beautiful and terrifying
in all her life. She had played around so much that she had not seen that
he was not your average cocky wizard. The shop was caving in around
her, and a boom shook the ground, as something in the store exploded
out back.
The windows and glass in the shop shattered and made her jump. She
looked to them, and though she had been known to flee when she did not
need to fight after a taunting victory, she had never fled through fear
before.
However, she dived out of her hiding spot as flames came at her,
blistering her skin, burning her red, singing her hair. She dived through
the window, cutting herself up as she landed on all the glass before
getting up, dripping blood all over the street, and running without
looking back, not caring what direction she took.
She moved fast passed all of the gawking filth before she stopped to catch
her breath. She was shaking like never before. Her heart was pounding
painfully in her chest. She could still hear and smell the fire burning
down the shop that many people like her frequented as it would become
no more.
It took her a moment to think clearly so she nodded her head, took a few
deep breaths and apparated away to inform her master and take care of
her injuries.
Meanwhile Harry dumped Draco and his mother at the mouth of Diagon
Alley where the blonde boy was choking up smoke and worrying over his
mother while Harry had wrapped up Greyback's body and carried him
over his shoulder while dragging Pettigrew by his hair, apparating to the
UK Ministry building.
He was a little covered in soot, but not too much, and he had to feel
proud that that Borgin's filthy store was now a smouldering pile of ash,
and it should not take more than a day's rest and some food to recharge
the magic he depleted manipulating all of that fire.
People where he entered the ministry auditorium gasped, and others
even looked to Pettigrew in awe as they whispered, recognising him as
the traitor while Harry kept only mildly amused.
Harry dragged him up to the security desk to see a man eying him with
his mouth hanging open before he quickly sent a man rushing off. Harry
stopped with the man while he looked nervous.
"I believe these two have bounties on their heads!" Harry said with a
smirk, letting out some amusement as the man's expression was quite
funny he was really that scared.
"Oh, oh, yes sir, let me see, Peter Pettigrew, two thousand g-galleons!" he
said looking over some paperwork, shaking. "And…?" he asked, gesturing
the man he was sure was dead.
"Tried fighting me," he muttered, smirking wider. "I won… almost had
Bellatrix Lestrange too, but I didn't expect her to run away!" he said as
several official looking men and woman charged into the room eyeing
Pettigrew as if Christmas might have come early.
"Fenrir Greyback!" he said causing gasps as he dropped the body where
the sheet slid off the dead man's head.
"Oh my god, this kid killed Fenrir Greyback!" one of the aurors said, wide
eyed with awe, mouth hanging open.
"So how much for him...?" Harry asked, nonchalant. It was really-hard
not to laugh at the way they were all so dumbfounded and some of the
younger aurors even in hero worship as they could only pray to bring in
such big fish.
"E-eight thousand sir," the deskman said, palling. "Umm… I'm assuming
cash is fine?" he asked, nervous and uncertain.
"You got it," he agreed, already smiling about the treasure he was getting,
and he didn't even have to steal it.
He wondered how much he would have gotten for Bellatrix though. He
shrugged that off as he realised he would have plenty of time to capture
her and collect some more pocket money.
Meanwhile back in Diagon Alley Rosette "Rose" Potter was walking
through Diagon Alley with her little sister, June, and father.
June had a cute pixy cut hairstyle. Her hair was black, which was long on
top with cute curls and sparkling green eyes to match. She was happily
holding her big sisters hand, and wearing a sweet blue pair of shorts and
tee with trainers.
Rose herself has long crimson hair, down to her butt as her mothers had
been. It was tied back with a white ribbon at her waist and neck. Her
eyes were just as bright green as her little sister Juniper "June" Potter's,
and wearing she was a white rippled skirt that hugged her tight butt
perfectly and hung just under half way down her thighs.
Then she had a tight pastel blue tee shirt on, accentuating her nice sized
bust, tying around her neck and lower back with a strapless bra
underneath so no straps showed, and white running shoes with pastel
blue socks and though hidden, undies that matched.
Their father was just in front of them, but not too close, as he wanted to
keep his distance from June. He tried 'ordering' Rose to so too, but that
just bugged the crap out of her and if she could win she would call him
out for a duel in her sisters honour, and kick his smarmy ass hard.
However, something caught their attention as they heard a familiar voice
from down an alley they had been passing, and since their dad was not
paying them any attention. They snuck away and peered down the alley,
surprised to see Draco Malfoy, an annoying dickhead from school (Rose's
year) with his mother covered in soot with the odd cough.
"Mum, I'm telling you the truth!" Draco said frustrated. "Harry King killed
Fenrir Greyback without magic, in once freaking hit! Then he knocked
out Pettigrew, and, it was the greatest I've ever seen anyone control
magic before. He created fireballs in his bare hands and fired them at
Aunt Bellatrix, blowing the store to hell, and then when he finished he
was manipulating the flames.
"I've never seen anything like it before. This is completely different from
how the ministry handles things. He is dangerous and powerful. Borgin's
is just a pile of rubble now, and I bet he's collecting the bounties for them
both, and Pettigrew will squeal like the rodent he is!"
"Impossible Draco!" she reprimanded in concern, "one boy could not
defeat both Bella and Fenrir!" she said shaking her head in total disbelief.
"Now let's go home, and clean up before we return so I can get a new
wand, thanks to that boy. We'll have to find another way for you to
accomplish the Dark Lord's plan!" she said, leading him towards Rose and
June so they quickly fled after their 'father' where he was looking around
for them – well Rose.
"Where have you been Rosette? I was starting to worry about you!" he
said angrily, not even giving June a thought. "We have to watch out for
kidnap attempts!"
"But dad...!" she said, complaining, annoyed but hiding it for more
pressing matters. "We just overheard Draco Malfoy!" she said urgently
while he rolled his eyes. "He said some boy called Harry King just killed
Fenrir Greyback, captured Peter Pettigrew, scared away Bellatrix
Lestrange, and burnt down Borgin's while doing it!" she said all in a rush
trying to get the words out as fast as she could while June nodded along
in agreement, not that her opinion meant anything to him.
James frowned as he ruffled his black hair and neatened his robes.
"Nonsense, Rosette," he said shaking his head. "They're two of the most
dangerous Death Eaters, and then the filthy rat. I doubt anyone will see
him again, sniffing his masters' ass all day long every day."
"But that's what Malfoy said!" she continued unable to doubt it having
seen how scared Malfoy had looked. "Then his mum said they'll need to
find another way for Malfoy to complete his mission for Voldemort!"
"Rosette, don't be ridiculous!" he said nearly losing his patience. "He's a
sixteen year old boy! Voldemort won't use him for anything important. If
he did it would be cannon fodder, or he really is scraping the bottom of
the cauldron! Now let this stupidity stop. I enjoy a good prank like the
next man, but honestly, Rosette…"
"Mr. Potter!" called out a young man, interrupting. He was wearing a
beige auror robe. He stopped with them panting for breath and taking
some deep calming breaths, "urgent news from the ministry, sir. Some
sixteen-year-old kid killed Fenrir Greyback and captured Peter Pettigrew
alive! He has just collected his bounties! You've been requested to see to
the prisoner," he said sounding rather excited.
Rose could not help but feel smug as the colour drained from her father's
face as he looked to her gulping. "Are you sure?" he had to asked,
concerned as he turned back to the younger auror.
"Yeah, he even burnt down Borgin's doing it," he said with an excited
nod. "And a report came in moment's later saying that they had a few
witnesses saying that Bellatrix Lestrange was fleeing the shop!"
"OK, I'll be there soon!" he said leading Rose and June to a brightly lit
shop of green and red, yellow, and pink. "OK Rosette, you know the drill,
stay in this shop with the twins and Ginny, and floo to Sirius's old place if
you have too, understand?!" he demanded, glaring at her and ignoring
any possible instructions for June, but she has gotten used to it so it
didn't bother her anymore as long as she had her big sister.
Rose nodded quickly just thankful to get away from him honestly, and
take her sister into better company. The moment she reaches seventeen
was the moment she was going to take her little sister, their inheritance
from their grandparents and mother and then move out.
She tugged her sister in after her while James Potter apparated away, not
even seeing the twins first. She wondered whether that jerk had any
manners at all, or whether he thought all should jump for her when he
said so.
"Hey guys," she called smiling at her best friend as the freckled red haired
cutie was sweeping up something a customer or someone spilt.
Ginevra "Ginny" Weasley grinned, her brown eyes going from bored too
happy as she rushed over wearing a thin cotton robe over her white
shorts and tee over her small, fine bod. She hugged Rose and June
tightly, completely forgetting about the mess and dropping the broom.
"Your dad dumped you both here again?" she asked, concerned as she let
them go.
Rose nodded as two ginger haired twin 'men' came over from the tills,
laughing. "So, what's the big this time?" Fred or George asked while the
girl and guy at the cash registers had to deal with the few customers by
themselves.
Rose sighed as she told them about everything she had heard. "This is all
just crazy," Rose said, rolling her eyes. "This Harry King guy just kicks
their asses and everything and… it's pretty amazing, maybe we could get
him to fight with us!?"
"Wow, he must be the same guy from yesterday!" George said while his
brother nodded. "We just heard on the rumour vine that one Harry King
stopped an evil plot in Hogsmead. The coffee shop woman turned out to
be a fat hag aspiring to be the next dark thing. Using some spell involving
a siren she had captured and pixies. She was starving them all, and
torturing them. She was using them to make girls break their boyfriends'
hearts to feed on their misery.
"He's said to have foiled her plot and taken the siren home, but that
wasn't the end. The Dark Fatty had escaped custody but he fought her
and some Death Eaters she had under her spell. She apparently makes
herself look smoking hot with illusions, but she is really revolting. In the
end she got too close to the water on Siren Cove and they got her…"
"That's not all; some Harry King also beat up some more Death Eaters in
Hogsmead the next day!" Fred picked up. "Completely floored them using
all sorts of odd magiks, and even beat some up with his bare hands."
"I think these rumours are getting out of hand!" Rose said with a sigh.
"Anyway, Ginny, do you want me and June to help with work?" she
asked as she turned to her friend getting an eager nod of her head.
to be continued...
Meanwhile miles away her ears were burning as she was cold and hungry as
she pulled her body up from the ocean, her flab on full display. She could not
use much of her power as she blinked in surprise as something nudged her. She
was lucky to survive and now this, she looked around at it.
Startled was an understatement, but, seriously. It was a large creature with
ripples of fat on its body and large fanged teeth. He made weird noises, but
she was too tired and out of magic to get rid of it, she had lost her cute outfit
while fighting the mer-bitches.
The thing would not give up and took her silence for something else, as she just
could not move. She screamed as its flabby body rolled up onto her and
something long and hard entered her from the rear entrance.
She screamed and squirmed, but it helped her naught, as she was the true
bitch!
Maybe she should have just drowned to death?

King of Bandit
Chapter 6
Rays of the New Light
Albus Dumbledore could not help but marvel at the magical and battle
talent Harry King had when he reviewed the memories of his battle. He
only took note of the bit in Hogsmead, as he did not feel the need to view
much more, and the bit with the sirens made Tonks too uncomfortable to
hand over her memory anyway and he didn't want to pry, he had what
he needed.
He has been looking for a Defence against the Dark Arts teacher for a
while now, and Severus Snape, his potion teacher and spy had been after
the job. However, Dumbledore had started questioning his loyalty as late
because of things here and there not quite adding up. Therefore, with a
man he was unsure about, he could not give such an important job, and
now more than ever needed someone to actually teach the kids how to
fight if need be.
He knew Snape had not been the best… well would have been the worst
teacher if not for the lame Defence Teachers he gets. They say the job is
jinxed; he says that that was rubbish, and is the reason crap teachers do
not last was because they could not teach, and the others, (Remus Lupin,
a great defence teacher etc.,) because Snape lets out their 'dark' secrets in
his jealousy, ruining everything for them and the school.
It did not matter how much easier it would be to get a new potion
teacher, Severus Snape could not have the job. However, here was a boy
who could not only defend himself, but he could do a much better job of
it than full-grown adults could. So, he was a bit young to be a teacher, he
was better than no one, and had such talent to pass on already, no doubt
having gotten into plenty of trouble with his family.
He had never seen such ancient, ritualistic magiks used in combat before,
and he doubted he could learn something like it now he had grown so
much in his ways, but maybe the children could, and then they would be
prepared for the hardships that waited then outside of the schools
protection.
Sitting down in his office chair, he held back a yawn, looking to the
golden perch in the corner where his golden and crimson friend, Fawkes
the Phoenix sat preening himself, wondering why the magical people
could not be that simple.
He had grown so tired and wary that he should probably back down once
Voldemort had been dethroned, so he will need a successor to his phony
position as the Great White Wizard, or whatever the people call him
these days; he is old, he forgets. In addition, the thought of retiring and
relaxing to the muggle world away from it all seems like a pleasant idea,
and already had his eyes set on sunny Florida, or California because he
wanted to stay as far as he could from whatever that thing in New York
was. It still baffled him how everyone either didn't notice or forgot; now
that was some impressive magic.
He had thought about Rosette succeeding him, but though a possibility;
she had yet to show signs of any 'non-school' talent. He knew she had it
in her, but she did not go out of her way to learn as he did when he was
young, at school, the way Harry obviously did, and he could not just
poke her in the arm and outright tell her; that would be cheating her own
potential.
Therefore, while Harry taught at the school he could watch, and see what
else he had, and maybe he might motivate Rosette to be a better witch.
He could only hope that she did better this year. He could see such talent
squandered by the pressure the magical people tended to put on the poor
girl when she needed to play and find herself, as well as being a child
too. She gets so conflicted.
In the past too-few men and women had stood as beacons of hope in the
wizarding world, and that was why the purebloods and purists had
gained such a hold over everything, and had not allowed many traditions
to change or die out, as they should during the passing of time.
The muggle world was a testament to what such change could bring,
evolving a people beyond all expectations where they do not even need
the thought of tradition to be happy, and freedom of expression was
important to them just as it should be to the wizarding world so it could
move forward.
He had done a lot over the years to open people's minds and open new
paths and new ideas, but it had been a hard road. He wanted to retire
some day in the future if he lasted through this war, and needed someone
powerful, talented, and intelligent to stand up as his or her hero as he
once did. Then somebody else would get bitched at for being wrong, and
any royal screw ups wouldn't be his fault.
It had been difficult and complicated trying to get people to see
werewolves were not monsters but people with a virus, and though he
could not get funding, even from supporters to help find a cure, he could
make their lives more bearable. However, for this and other things
besides, some more important he had been fought every step of the way,
by ignorant, fearful fools.
If he did not have someone capable of being seen, strong, and in the
brightness of the light then all of his hard work could be undone. The
magical world, though still very primitive had changed a lot because of
him, but with Rose, or possibly Harry if she didn't cut it in the end,
standing up in his stead, young and strong, the next generation would
change everything, for the betterment and advancement of the wizarding
people.
Yes, he just had to figure out a way to convince Mr. King to come and
teach at the school. Though, that might not be so hard if he wanted to
protect his sisters. All Albus had to do is make sure young Harry does not
realise he could just enrol in the school instead; blindside him with the
offer out of nowhere. And then hope he had forgotten that it was his
huge mess up that made him run away in the first place, and Albus would
promise to never try to force a fortune ever again.
Thinking of that he grimaced when his mind wondered to James Potter.
The man had obviously lost sense in the light of Rosette's fame, and if
Harry had any sense, he would take in Juniper and Rosette before he did
something stupid and hurt June, and had Rosette murdering him. Albus
didn't doubt Harry would protect Rose even if she did commit murder
considering he was not exactly the type that would not have got to James
first if he could.
He may be a little crazy sometimes, but he saw the way Rosette loved her
little sister, and how protective she was of her; especially since their
mother's death; just a few months ago. Lily's death was a braking point
for him too. He never wanted to admit it but they couldn't go easy any
more. They took a very bright and powerful young witch away from
them, and now they had to take off the kid gloves or lose so many more.
Sighing, he shuddered a little thinking that they had to be violent to truly
stop these things, just as Lily had said before she died fighting his way,
showing her respect for him even though she likely wanted to fight her
way, and kick his arse for the thing with Harry to begin with. If that
meant killing then, killing them, then because you cannot fight violence
with violence without taking a few heads, accidental or otherwise. He
realised from looking at the events in Hogsmead that the Death Eater's
were only scared when the rules changed.
It had never really occurred to him before, but the Death Eater's were
never scared. If they didn't get let off because evidence conveniently
disappeared, or they lined someone's pockets with gold, they were just
broken out a few days later anyway. The ministry was scarcely prepared,
so frightened the younger aurors were foolishly taught to fear Death
Eater's, but maybe this would show them to fight.
However, it was human nature to fear the unknown, to fear death and
pain. Some men could push through that fear, enjoy it, let it fuel their
victory, and it was always there waiting, in the back of the mind. If they
realised that they could actually die, or be maimed by a cutting jinx then
they were less likely to want to join the Death Eater's in the first place.
Though, he knew that wouldn't cut the numbers, but hopefully lessen
recruits. If they had the Dark Mark, then that was it, they were in
Voldemort's pants forever, or death was the only way out. He felt bad for
them, but they chose to harm men, women, and children who would
never want to strike them just because of their ancestry, even if they
might have reason.
However, he wondered what Voldemort would do if he found out about
that Dark Fatty as Harry has taken to calling her, and her use of Death
Eater's, using tricks and illusions. He shuddered to think of the pain he
would cause them if they had survived, but it was very unlikely they
would have, as sirens could be deadly when their sisters were threatened
or hurt.
If indeed the Dark Fatty woman was truly dead, last, he knew, the sirens
had her, but he had learnt that evil like hers and Voldemort's… well, they
seem to be slippery escape artists until they meet the right hero who has
the talent and power to completely vanquish them.
The world weaves these things in an odd loop, but he had learnt to deal
with these things in the best way possible, and end up going with the
flow and helping as much as he could, no matter how much more he may
wish to help. He was after all still the accomplished and powerful
sorcerer, but he was still an old man.
He rubbed his tired and wary eyes under his glasses as he looked down at
the papers on his desk. He moved one, which was a report from Amelia
Bones on Rosette's progress with occlumency. He had asked the woman
to help her with it, as she felt more comfortable with a woman looking at
her memories.
Rosette was not doing too bad, and Amelia only wrote a few notes about
her best friend's progression, as she had agreed to let them learn too,
which would keep her secrets safer, and made Rosette feel more
comfortable and happy with her friends by her side.
He looked it over. It only told him bits and pieces, nothing about any
memories as the woman took confidentiality very strictly, as she should
while dealing with such personal issues as memories.
He had been wondering whether he should perhaps get June in on the
lessons too. That might be a good idea. He had to remember that just
being Rosette's sister made her just as big a target as the Girl-Who-Lived
herself. He was sure Amelia would accept June and June's best friend too
as she would no doubt want her to go with her, and vice versa.
"Albus!" he was so deep in his own thoughts that Professor McGonagall
startled him as she barged into his office before he had the chance to
sense her presence, which was his trick, memorising everyone's presence
of mana. No one had found the right book yet to call him on how he
knew who they were before they enter, most thinking the paintings told
him or something like that.
She came to a stop in front of his desk looking flustered, having hurried.
"I've just gotten word from the Ministry that a Harry King had just turned
over the body of Fenrir Greyback and captured Peter Pettigrew alive.
There was an incident at Borgin and Burkes that resulted in a fight, and
the place has been burnt down."
The old head teachers' eyes opened wide in shock. "I see; Pettigrew's
capture is something but Greyback's death. I know of many people who
will feel safer for both, but with Greyback's death the people will see
some hope in the darkness."
She nodded as she let it sink in that it was good news. The death of
minions was a bright spark but clearing out generals was celebration
worthy. "Also, it was said that he almost had Bellatrix too, and possibly
that Draco Malfoy and his mother were there, they can't be certain.
James Potter has already gotten to the ministry…!"
Dumbledore perked up at this. "Where did he leave the girls?" he quickly
demanded in worry for them as they were like grandchildren to him.
"He says with the Weasley twins at their shop," she answered straight
away. "They'll be OK there won't they?" she asked sounding concerned for
them too, having grown attached over the years.
"Yes, for a while, but a source has informed me of a planned attack
today," he replied, worried. "I had been organising some people together.
However, with everything that has been happening, I am afraid that we
had not much of a gathering yet. I'm sorry, I got lost in thoughts and
memories," he said gesturing his memory bowl, which got a nod of
understanding, having seen the amazing feats herself.
"Surely after their defeats they wouldn't try their luck again so soon?"
McGonagall tried to reason. "Even they'll have heard of King by now, and
they would play that cautious, right?"
"I'm afraid I cannot begin to imagine what Voldemort will do or think of
this," he replied, shaking his head in sadness. "We must hope for the best,
but prepare for the worst. Take Professor Flitwick, gather some others
capable of fighting, and head to the Weasley's shop to secure the
children's safety. I shall be there soon. I'll be gathering some more
members of the Order to help evacuate the civilians to safety should the
need arise."
"Understood," she readily agreed as she stormed out of his office and he
went to his fireplace, disappearing through the emerald flames moments
later to appear out of a fire in the middle of soot covered filthy ruins with
fires blazing and rubble all around him.
His eyes widened as he looked around to see half of the wonky house
missing with a huge green skulls with serpents tongue clouds in the sky
over the house and the cornfields on fire.
He ground his teeth as he saw the young blonde woman under an
onslaught of the torture curse screaming nearby, withering on the ground
in pain while the filth harming her laughed. It always made him feel sick
that these people would really find pleasure in another creature's pain, let
alone other humans.
Albus's wand slid out of his sleeve, into his right hand in a fit of anger
and he was surprised with himself as the Death Eaters wand arm was
sliced clean off at the elbow sprouting blood as he looked to it in horror.
"Miss. Delacour!" he said in concern ignoring the Death Eater as he
helped her up while she scrambled for her wand panting for breath. She
looked from Dumbledore to the Death Eater, slashing her wand the Death
Eater went down in a flash of blue light where he squirmed in pain,
unconscious.
"I d-didn't think anyone got out a message for help," she said with tears in
her eyes as they looked around at other members of the Order of the
Phoenix fighting Death Eater's and big bulking, ugly-mountain trolls.
"They didn't," he said looking to the darkened sky, littered with smoke
and ash from the attack, and none of his people had even a clue this was
going to happen, let alone the vast majority not having a clue it WAS
happening.
"My sister!" she suddenly said looking over to an unconscious lump a
little way from them. "G-Gabrielle!" she called out breaking free from
Dumbledore, rushing to her, and dropping to her knees and cradling the
bloodied twelve year old girl, grimacing as her right leg was torn up at
an odd angle with bone protruding from her torn skin.
Gabrielle opened her eyes, blurrily, half lidded, but only one, the right
was a brilliant blue, tearing, the other was bloodied and oozing puss with
two huge gashes across it, down her cheek and up across her forehead.
"F-Fleur, b-big sister!" she muttered before she passed out cold, eyes
fluttering closed, whimpering cold.
Fleur had never felt such rage bubbling in her before as she turned to see
her boyfriend, Bill being ganged up on by four, Death Eater's. She
gripped her wand tightly between her fingers, and with a swish, flick and
twirl, boom, all four blew up with the ground around them, falling down
in screams and cries as their legs were torn up, blood splattering all over
them in their agony.
Albus was soon in helping the plump woman Molly Weasley while Bill
ran to help his girlfriend and her sister. He swished his wand deflecting
spells, and for once, he was not being the typical Albus Dumbledore, as
they were attacking some of his favourite people, some of the nicest he
knew.
He sent their sickening spells straight back at them, which caused some
to start panicking as their comrades screamed on the floor; one man's
skin peeling from his flesh and bones withering on the dirt.
"You made your beds!" the old man roared in his anger, his magic
booming, his robes bellowing in his power, engulfing them in his anger.
"Now you will sleep in them!" he said, continuing, deflecting a spell back
that cut a Death Eater in two at the waist. "I am sick and tired of you
getting away with whatever you want! You racist piles of dung!" he spat
out, that being the closest he will get to swearing if he could help
himself.
They turned and fled, screaming in panic, apparating or trying on foot
only to get mowed down by Dumbledore's stunners for the wizards, but
the trolls weren't so bright as to flee that he slaughtered them all with
ease. He was showing his power, and a little of what he was capable,
before it was all over, and in one more bout of anger…
He shot a white spell into the sky. It blast through the dark marks
dispelling them in blasts of white lightning and thunder booms, clearing
the smoke, letting the sunshine through as warm rain came from
nowhere, starting to douse the flames. He could see some members of his
order down and not moving and knew he had lost some good people who
would be missed terribly.
"Albus!" he was shocked as he was breathing heavily still pumped with
adrenalin and soaking wet to see Arthur Weasley, head of the family had
approached, touching his shoulder to get his attention. They could still
hear the screams as they looked around at the Death Eaters withering in
the pain of their own spells.
"For once, Arthur, I can't feel any pity!" he said as he calmed. "But let us
show them a semblance of mercy and get them to the hospital chambers
within the auror department for medical attention, and our injured to
hospital and fast. It appears young Gabrielle has been seriously and
grievously injured. Then we need to prepare for an attempt on Diagon
Alley sometime within the next day or two. If they attacked here, it's still
possible that Diagon Alley shall be attacked too."
"Right, we're on it," said Charlie Weasley, the second eldest son from
where he listened in near his father. "I'll get some people together… we
managed to get Ron through the floo to the Longbottom's to his dismay,
but he'll be safe there for a while. Gabby had been outside at the time
with Fleur, sorry."
"It will be okay, let's just get moving and get her to hospital, fast!" he said
with a sigh as he looked around at all of the mess and damage,
wondering what could be salvaged from this.
Voldemort did have a habit of waiting until guards were low and then
making multiple attacks, but maybe they needed to do more than sit
around and wait for the next time.

King of Bandit
Chapter 7
Into Battle
Harry groaned as he had apparated into a war zone. He had just left
Diagon Alley for half an hour to grab a burger to eat and see about
getting the gas fixed back at the apartment for the girls, and then the
place goes to the dogs, or the Death Eater's.
Aurors and other assorted witches and wizards were doing battle with
Death Eater's: badly. The freaks in black robes, and stupid skeleton masks
were cruising for the smack down, but he really couldn't be bothered. He
had heard somebody: a dead Death Eater he cornered and 'asked' told
him that his sister was likely in the Weasley twins shop. He wasn't too
sure who these Weasley twins were, but he was certain they would be
amusing if they were pranksters.
He sighed looking around at the mess and death the Aurors were not
getting anywhere. He shook his head, discouraged, his destination was
in-between the two factions. Therefore, he did what any sixteen year old
hero would do. He proceeded through the noisy battlefield, sidestepping
what looked like a torture curse, then a killing curse and a few more dark
ones as he just walked nonchalant passed the so-called good guys getting
a few startled looks from both sides as he just moved out of the way of all
curses and hexes with his hands in his pockets.
He was wearing cream coloured cargo shorts as it had been such a nice
day thus far, so after lunch he changed. His tee shirt was white and Kir
was still asleep, wrapped around his left arm, hidden underneath a white
'sleeve' that tied around his bicep. He was wearing white running shoes
without any socks, and his 'weapon' on his right arm wasn't even hidden,
but not many wizards or witches would be smart enough to realise it was
a weapon.
He yawned as he jumped sideways, hands still in his pockets, spinning in
the air swiftly between two green killers, and landed lightly on his feet.
He continued towards the joke shop as if his feats of acrobatics were
normal.
He weaved around two curses from two, Death Eater's that were guarding
the shop, and kicked one in the nuts. He doubled over in pain grabbing
his crutch and got Harry's right knee crashing into his face, cracking his
mask as he flew up and crashed to his back out cold.
The other Death Eater ended up with Harry's left hand crushing his
windpipe as he pulled his hands from his pocket. He squeezed until the
Death Eater stopped struggling, and dropped him on the floor,
nonchalant.
Harry stretched and moved his head slightly to the left, letting a green
beam whizz by from behind to singe the wall. He shrugged and opened
the shop door. He wasn't surprised to see several Death Eaters fighting
with some kids about his age-ish.
Sighing he walked towards the closest enemy fighting a cute red haired
girl with brown eyes and freckles wearing black everyday robes. Harry
rolled his eyes as he walked up behind the Death Eater, lifted his right
leg, and crashed it down on his enemies' leg. The Death Eater screamed
as he dropped to the ground, his leg snapped and bone splintered bloody
through his skin before a punch to the back of the head and the man
crushed down, unconscious.
Harry grinned at the girl and winked as she stared at him in shock. She
blushed brightly before he turned to the next two Death Eaters battling
twin red haired boys' maybe a couple of years older than him.
He ran up his left Death Eaters back without effort, the man gargled a
yelp and Harry's trainer smashed hard into his hidden face, bloody
spilling everywhere. As the Death Eater fell, Harry glided off his head
spinning lightly with his left foot; it crashed into the others face. It
seemed slow, however the Death Eater yelped in agony and they heard a
crunch as the man went flying back and crashed with explosive force into
the shelf covered wall, crumpling bloody to the floor.
Harry grinned impishly at the twins' awed expressions before turning and
noting a Death Eater pinning a small girl with short cut brunette hair and
terrified green eyes. His grin turned to fury as he stalked over, holding in
his growl.
"I know what I'll do with you!" the Death Eater laughed suggestively at
the girl as she struggled to get him off her.
"Get off my sister you perverted bastard!" yelled a redhaired girl about
his age, but she was too busy fighting her Death Eaters to protect her
sister.
"Ha, you can go next-!" He was cut short as Harry grabbed his hair
pulling him off the girl, growling he grabbed the man's crutch, squeezing
with every ounce of pressure, the man's eyes bulged and he squeaked
incoherently. Reign then gave a tug, ripping it. The man whimpered, and
Harry smashed his left fist into the Death Eaters masked face. The Death
Eater slumped to the ground.
Harry grinned at who he presumed was his little sister, June. She blushed
when her eyes suddenly widened as a Death Eater charged him. He got in
close, about to throw a spell. He didn't realise he had gotten too close
and Harry moved so fast that it was a blur of movement, and the Death
Eater's wand started cracking and shattering before June even saw
Harry's hand shattering it before forcing the man to his knees and kicking
him in the face, to the ground.
"Whoa! That was awesome!" the red haired girl said while her Death
Eater had stopped fighting as he looked around to see that he was alone.
She smirked at the Death Eater as he turned back to her and she had
picked up a fallen shelf, and didn't hesitate to clobber him with it. He
keeled over in a dead faint with a trail of blood running from his head.
"So you're that boy I heard about!?" the red head said as she eagerly
shook his hand. "I heard you kicked the crap out of loads of Death Eater's,
and even ran off Bellatrix Lestrange...! Oh, I'm Rosette Potter, by the way,
and yes, I am pretty awesome aren't I!" she introduced herself.
"Umm... okay I guess," he said now knowing how weird it was for
someone to introduce themselves as awesome, and how hard it was to
reply to that. "I'm Harry King."
"Fred!"
"George!"
The twins said as they popped up either side of him while the other
redhaired girl brought June into the group.
"This is my little sister, June!" Rose said quickly checking the girl over for
injuries, "and one of my best friends, Ginny! And we're both in the
market for cute guys who can kick ass!"
"Don't mind her!" Ginny said with a sweet smile as the sound of fighting
outside had stopped. "Rosie and I just have trouble finding boys who
aren't either intimidated by Rose being the Girl-Who-Lived and her dad,
or by my six brothers, one of which is a total douche bad!"
"Yeah, and these two are just half D-bags!" Rose put in, grinning while
Fred and George pretended to look hurt.
"Why are you here anyway and not outside fighting?" George asked, "that
is what you do, isn't it?"
He shrugged with a small grin. "No really, I'm a... well that doesn't
matter," he said looking to June with a smile. "If I knew about you I
might have returned as soon as Voldemort did, to protect you!"
She looked at him in surprise, "me...?" she asked, looking baffled.
"I am so sorry I have not been around for you," he answered, confusing
them all further. "Mum and dad were, well… I was a silly kid and did not
know about you, and I am so sorry. But I'm here now to… you know
make up for things and beat all of your enemies to death, and I hear you
have quite a lot of enemies and stuff…" he babbled on, not having
thought that far ahead yet, so didn't quite know how to act.
June had watery eyed as he paused, and she looked into his eyes, eyes
just like hers and Rose's. He opened his arms and she flew into his
embrace, letting him pick her up, her legs wrapping around him. He
cuddled her in his warmth and protection, like real family, like her sister
would because she knew he was her big brother, finally here to look after
her and Rose.
"Don't worry baby, I'm here now, and any Death Eater that wants to harm
you or Rosie has to traverse the hell that is me first!" he said with his
voice full of a cockiness they couldn't deny knowing who he was and
seeing what he had already done.
"So, my big brother is really alive?" Rose asked as she walked closer,
watching the way he held June so close, so caring, in his arms. She felt
uncomfortable, unable to know what she wanted, and all that was deep
inside was to hold him tight.
Harry pulled back a little, still holding June as she did not seem to want
to end her hug yet and smiled at Rose. "Yeah, and I came back as soon as
I heard you were in so much trouble. I was on a ferry home when I meet
a girl, Hermione Granger and found out about June!" he said shocking
her.
"Hermione's okay isn't she?" she asked, concerned for her friend while
looking to him in hope. "We couldn't send much back and forth while her
folks took her on holiday. She did not want to go, but I made her. It
could be the last chance she gets to just be with her parents and…"
"She's fine," he replied, interrupting, and smiling in reassurance before
she starts babbling with worry. "Those Death Eaters ended up taking a
swim when they met me," he said grinning smugly.
She sighed in relief and smiled back at him, blushing. "Harry…" she said,
uncertain, but he opened his right arm, carrying June with his left and
she rushed in, wrapping her arms around him, whimpering, and holding
him tight, feeling his powerful body beneath the fabric of his tee shirt,
awed that she had a chance to make things right.
She enjoyed the way he stroked her hair, and how she knew with him
around everything would be so much better. Thinking about setting him
up with Ginny since she does not have to choose between her and
Hermione since Hermione was still dating that looser.
Though, if she could get Hermione to finally dump the looser, Harry
might have some smart, strong friend to set her up with and maybe one
for her too. She had to shake away those thoughts, as she would let her
mind wonder too much over the silliest distractions. Hermione had told
her she probably had some mild form of ADHD (Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder) or something.
"This is all heart wrenching but we have to clean this mess up," Fred or
George broke in teasingly as they both smiled, trying not to look as
uncomfortable as they felt at the scene, being typical Weasley boys open
emotional displays tended to render them crept out.
Rose sniffled as she pulled back from Harry's arms, teary eyed. "Oh…,"
she said blushing more.
"Fred, George!" Ginny reprimanded after, shaking her head, trying to
keep her eyes off her best friends' newfound big brother, and wow, she
was truly amazed that a wizard could be that fit, with muscles and
everything. She had to keep her attention on other things or she would
be lost to her imagination, or staring into his gorgeous eyes, Rose had
caught her doing that to her before.
"So, Ginny, huh," Harry commented as some people entered the store. He
turned to the cute red haired girl while she blushed brightly and he
wished she was wearing something more like his sister to show him off
that hot bod of hers. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Ginny. I can see we'll
be getting along just great!" he said, winking, which seemed to please
and embarrass her.
"Hey man, not in front of us!" George said grimacing and trying to be all-
brotherly, but when you're up against a young man who killed one of the
most dangerous dark wizard werewolves they had heard about, he didn't
want to end up in a fight with anyone like that, but big brother code
demanded some sort of token or something; at least keep it out of their
sight: out of sight, out of mind and all of that.
"Yeah," Fred agreed, going along with his brother, but keeping on Harry's
good side, even though it was obvious he was a nice guy, so made sure
he would state it as so, so everything was cool. "We're her older brothers
and because it is customary for us to scare off boys… and well, you've
gotten quite the name, and we don't want to be beaten up!"
"Wow, my brothers are cowards!" Ginny said with a sigh, rolling her eyes
while her cheeks were still tinted, as she half teased them.
"Not cowards, just smart!" George said, with his cheeky grin back on; his
brother grinning too, nodding in agreement. "We'll fight to protect our
little sister too, but we're not stupid. Anyway, he seems like the kind of
guy we'll like so we approve," he said while his brother nodded along
with him some more.
"Don't mind them, they're always like that!" Rose said while fidgeting
with her fingers and suppressing an 'evil' grin. "Ginny is top rate and I
should know, I've seen her na-!"
"ROSETTE!" Ginny yelled, interrupting her before she finished, and the
twins pretended they did not hear a thing while June was giggling. Rose
was pretending she did not just embarrass her friend scarlet, and
wondering whether she should tell him the red did go down further than
her face. "Have some tact girl, he was coming onto me and I was letting
him-!" she trailed to a stop, even more embarrassed.
"-And I'm going to continue until I get you," he replied smirking while
June giggled harder. However, Harry noticed something odd. The men
who entered a moment ago weren't the rescue or cleanup crew. His eyes
scanned each. He smiled as he put June down, though she pouted. "Hey, I
think you're too old for me to carry around sweets."
Harry laughed as she pouted more as he walked over, looking in on the
pigmy puffs, they were little fuzz balls of different colours. They were
right next to the window where they could potentially get hurt if another
fight broke out.
"They are kind of cute aren't they?" Rose said as she had followed him
while he nodded and picked up the whole pen full of the small rodents
and walked it over to the counter.
"Don't even think about buying us all of them!" Rose quickly
reprimanded. "Ginny has one and we can always pet them here, June and
I have an owl each to look after," she said worried.
Harry looked to her smiling. "Sorry, but I was just bringing them here
where they'll be safe from round two of the battle about to take place. I
have a very close friend who would be pissed if I got the little things
killed. She loves pigmy puffs as they're apparently the cutest little things
on Earth," he said placing the pen behind the checkout desk.
"We're the only people in the shop that aren't Death Eaters," he added
shocking them to look around at the ugly faced men 'looking' around.
"T-they can't be!" Rose whispered in horror and doubt, as she really
looked them over. She realised they were 'shopping', but that would have
been crazy with all the other Death Eater's out cold or dead, and they
weren't cleaning the Death Eater's away either, or seeing whether they
were okay. She turned back to Harry when she realised he had
disappeared.
She looked around the shop to see something odd. Three men were
missing before her eyes widened as she watched Harry sleeper hold
another and he struggled for a moment before he was dragged away out
of sight.
It took but a minute for only three to remain before they realised out of
the nine men they were all that were left standing. Harry came up behind
another, chocking him, holding his wand, and arm pointed at the last
two, they froze.
"Hey, douche bags, tell me what you're doing here and I might let you
go!" Harry said with this amused smile as one went for his wand.
"Stupefy!" Harry hissed as he forced his whimpering captive to swish his
wand and the man went down in a jet of fuzzy red light. "I'll admit I'm
lacking in the sorcery department, but I do know the basic essentials!" he
said, amused as the man crumpled to the floor.
"W-we're here to capture the Potter girls!" he stuttered out in fear. "W-we
were supposed to jump them after the first lot didn't turn up. W-when we
saw this... we knew we couldn't run away; 'he' would do terrible things to
us!"
The Death Eater's at least knew who they were dealing with. Word
seemed to get around very fast in the wizarding world. "The-the next
wave will start soon… D-Dumbledore sent some of his people to k-keep
them safe, b-but they are hidden. They've just got here, missed all of this.
S-so we thought pretending to be customers better and easier than
fighting them, but then the first lot, we wanted to leave once we s-saw
you. T-then rumour says D-Dumbledore is-is actually fighting back. We
don't want to fight F-Filius Flitwick if he has permission to potentially
kill, we wouldn't stand a chance, and especially not you!"
"Yeah, well, you got unlucky with me!" he said as his captive screamed as
Harry snapped his wrist and face planted him unconscious into the
wooden floor before moving forward as the last man went for his wand,
and ended up with a kick to the throat, forcing him down and out as his
neck was broken.
"OK guys, tie up the Death Eaters and store them out back, and let's
prepare for battle!" Harry said all business like. "I won't be able to protect
you all the time so fight, and please do use lethal and dangerous spells.
Once they are down, they have to stay down. Ginny and Rose, stay with
June at all times!"
They all nodded quickly as they tied up their prisoners (live or not) and
stored them out back. "Okay, Fred, George, anyway we can alert the old
man and the ministry to the second attack? It looks like those idiots
didn't think to secure the district and increase security."
"I can send a patronus!" George said quickly. "But it will be seen and
they'll jump at the spell!"
"What about underage magic? Ginny, June, and I could get expelled,"
Rose said worried, thinking about a past event when she got into trouble
and it was not even her magic.
He looked at her, rolling his eyes. "Honestly I don't care, but I also know
there are laws about self-defence, and I doubt anyone will mention it. If
they do they'll be looked down on and probably lose their jobs, accused
of being a Death Eater."
"Okay, then what do we do now?" George asked, startling Harry, he
elaborated. "We've fought a bit, but never in the, 'we could die' category
sort of thing against Death Eater's."
"Right, just calm down," he replied as he saw they are all looking so
concerned. "And remember. If you cannot fire a cutting hex in rapid
succession, fire stingers until their shields let down and then go for the
big casts. It is survive or die, and the best way to survive is to make sure
they don't!" he said smirking. "So try to sense the mana around you, know
where each other are at all times, and where to strike…" he trailed off, as
they looked lost.
"Sense the mana?" Ginny asked, befuddled. "How are we supposed to do
that Harry? Hogwarts doesn't teach that sort of thing," she said, and they
all looked worried and confused.
He sighed and shook his head. "That is a simple bit of defence, knowing
where your enemy or ally is by sensing their mana, which can't be
suppressed or hidden while it's in flux and use. What the hell do they
teach you guys at that school?"
"W-well only Professor Lupin has been any good at teaching Defence
against the Dark Arts," Rose said sheepishly. "But he's a werewolf and
Snape got jealous because Uncle Remus was a better teacher, and
everyone liked him. So Snape told the Slytherins he was a werewolf and
all those pureblood parents attacked and made him have to leave. We
haven't had a good teacher since or before, and that was my third year."
Harry felt like face palming as he rolled his eyes. "Well, I'll teach you
myself if I have too. That is the basics after all, but not now. Just know
that something is happening outside. I think I have a hit on your
'watchers' as their magic is fluctuating with trepidation rather than
excitement, and others are waiting, feeling fear. It's about to happen…!"
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The ground shook with explosions, and items fell from shelves. "You have
no idea how pissed off these guys are making me," Harry commented but
he was smiling as he held June up as she almost fell over in her fear. All
of them were holding their wands except for Harry. "I can't even have
five minutes to rest. I just left the burger bar like five minutes ago!"
"I guess you're having a bad couple days," George said sheepishly as they
waited. "But at least you've been putting them down, so that is lucky for
us."
"Y-yeah," he replied as screams echoed throughout the alley outside when
the large windows shattered open as a small squad of five goblins
charged in carrying golden spears. "Save your strength, I'll handle them!"
he added as he moved forward.
He dodged a strike from a spear, grabbing it. He picked up the goblin
with the spear and crushed him dead into a wall before spearing two
with a single throw. The other two did not seem all that imposing when
Harry seemed to blink away, reappearing with his clenched fists around
their throats, throwing their bloodied bodies through the shattered
storefront window.
Harry looked back, amused. "That is how I kick ass!" he said, amused at
their expressions as he looked out into the chaos as Death Eaters, goblins,
and mountain trolls attacked innocent and weak wizards and witches,
adults and children while men and women in red and beige robes fought
back.
However, they didn't have a chance to rush out into the field and fight as
several Death Eaters charged in wearing their masks and black robes to
hide away their crimes with anonymity.
"What's with all the racket?" Kir asked as he slithered his head out of
Harry's sleeve.
"Umm... nothing...!" Harry replied while Kir looked at the Death Eaters.
"That doesn't look like nothing," he replied, doubtful. "That looks like
some of those Death Eater goons."
"You speak parseltongue too!" Rose said in amazement while the Death
Eater's were getting both annoyed, and chills that they were being
ignored, and that they were faced with two speakers, and the dead
goblins was creepy too; if they realised there were dead Death Eater's out
back too they would have likely gone home.
"Yeah," he agreed with a grin as he took the snake to June. "Here, Kir,
this is my Little Sister June, bite any bastard who even looks at her funny
if they get to close!"
"Oh great, now I'm a babysitter!" he complained as he curled up around
her neck, careful not to be too tight.
"I'm not a baby!" she retorted in parseltongue, which only added to the
Death Eater's angst, and Harry mildly wondered why they were waiting
for them to finish before he remembered they were idiots.
"June, I didn't know you spoke parseltongue!" Rose said in surprise, in
said language to her sister.
"I did!" Ginny piped in, also speaking parseltongue. "Hey, I guess that
means that you three have it naturally since it stands to reason Tom,
from that diary when he was forcing me to open the chamber would have
needed a speaker, so had to add it to me, unless he just struck lucky and
I'm the first in my family in forever."
"Could you four please speak English? That's kind of creepy!" Fred
interrupted quickly before the Death Eater's decided they had enough
waiting.
"Potter...!" The leader of the Death Eater's spat.
"Hey," Harry said to gain their attention. "I'll do you a deal, piss off and I
won't kill you."
The Death Eaters laughed at him as they regained their bravado. "Ha, and
who are you supposed to be?" he mocked in amusement. "How about
you-hand over, Potter and we'll think about leaving you all alive."
"But there's only five of you," replied Harry smirking. "You make this too
easy," he chuckled, a dark silvery grey blade, swished, metal on metal out
of his gauntlet of his right arm. He then moved, dashing forwards so fast
blink and you missed it.
Suddenly he reappeared, his blade up against the nearest Death Eater's
throat, his left hand holding his robes near his neck tight, and the man's
eyes widened in horror.
"One last chance…" Harry whispered dangerously. The Death Eaters did
not move, but he could see it in their eyes. They knew who he was now,
and they made the grave mistake of pissing him off.
Harry's left knee then came up, crashing into the Death Eater's gut with
crushing force, the sound of snapping bones made everyone else in the
shop wince as the Death Eater screamed out in agony. Harry pulled his
blade back and it retracted, blood spilling from the munchers mouth as
he doubled over, falling to the ground, dying.
Bandit King smirked at the four remaining dark wizards as they stepped
back, readying their wands: one fired. Harry dodged the green beam to
the left letting it hit the ground, burning a small hole in the floor. The
King of Bandit jumped up at the next Eater, with a spinning left kick his
boot smashed into the masked face; the mask went flying with blood as
bone cracked and Harry's enemy went down.
He dodged two more dark curses, left then right before fading out of
sight. Suddenly one Death Eater's mask smashed off his face, blood
oozing all over as he flew back crashing into some shelves that crumpled
on top of him. Harry was then in the air where the eater had just been
before landing lightly on his feet.
Harry then reached out to either side of him, grabbing the Death Eater's
by their robes, pulling them towards each other he let go, stepping back
the Death Eater's staggered hard into each other with yelps of pain. Harry
struck out twice with his right, and left fists, smashing them fiercely
through several displays; they did not even cry out as they were
unconscious on impact, crashing down in the wreckage.
Harry turned his dangerous gaze upon the remaining Eater, and before
the dark minion could even register the threat, the young Bandit King
dashed towards him. Harry ran up the man's body, the world seemed to
slow down, with the young kings left foot was on his enemies left
shoulder; his right foot pulled back, he span left, and with a sickening
crash, his foot connected. Blood lashed out, the mask cracked in a spider
web pattern as the dark wizard screamed like a little girl, crashing with
explosive force into the street outside, bouncing across the ground: glass
cut him, blood trailing from the window, to his limp and unmoving form.
Harry landed lightly with a pleased smirk. He then cranked his neck and
stretched for a moment. He had managed to take out two extra Death
Eater's outside with that one move. The fight between him and the Death
Eater's too less than a minute, just over half if he were to estimate.
"I did warn them," he commented with a shrug before looking back
outside to the battle going on as the ground shook around them from
powerful spells. "I think there are a few more Death Eater's that need to
be shown how to be nice members of society."
"And you're going to do that?" Rose asked as she looked at her brother
and was awed by how powerful he was, but he also looked exhausted.
He smirked at her before looking back out of the window. "So, the Order
is in crimson, the aurors beige, and the Death Eater's black," he muttered
to himself though they all nodded along. "I like the colour coding, but I
guess goblins and trolls are fair game as the Gringotts Goblins won't be
out fighting for anyone, so let's pick this party up a few gears!" he said as
he stepped outside through the shattered window.
They watched, transfixed as he crouched, legs apart, arms crossed out in
front over his chest. "Come forth, Bringer of Destruction!" his voice
echoed out with power as blue sparks of electricity burst up from
nowhere rolling over his body. "I call upon the heavens!" he continued
roaring out as the sky seemed to darken and blue lightning sparked
across him, waving his clothes and hair in the breeze.
"Bringer of Eidolon!" he cried out as a massive pentagram erupted, just
slightly larger around than Harry was standing tall before his crossed
arms. "I Summon ODIN'S Wrath!" he finished and the sky lit up with blue
lightning as it crashed down, striking and powering Harry's pentagram,
shaping a horse in the circle, it pulsed and burst out, a magnificent horse
of blue lightning charged forward, pulling the lightning from the
pentagram, fading it into its body and galloped forward, a magnificent
steed.
It went straight at the trolls ahead of it where they had been attacking
innocent civilians and a small wizard had been trying to rescue them,
bouncing around, blasting and cutting them up like he was Yoda from
Star Wars. The tiny Professor looked up in surprise as he saw the spell
charging, its form shifting into a huge eight-foot tall knight with horse
head shield and a mighty lance, more defined as wearing powerful black,
dark grey, blue, and purple armour with white lance and shield.
The tiny and spry Professor dived out of the way, as the moronic trolls
turned to the danger, the nearest screaming as it was speared through the
chest with tons of lightning coercing through the attack. The Professor
moved quickly as the lightning knight shielded against another trolls
rough wooden club to get the innocent people to safety.
"Harry, what the hell is that?" Rose asked as they joined him outside, as
the Death Eater's were taking clear to keep away from the area where the
knight was fighting with the trolls.
He looked to her, grinning as he shook off the large power drain, holding
back from staggering or showing any weakness. He needed to stay strong
so he didn't give the Death Eater's a hint that he was just a normal human
with normal weaknesses such as limits.
"Just the power of the eidolon Odin!" he said with a shrug. "Most eidolon
contracts have certain conditions, and they've been met. I did say I was
going to pick up the party-."
Harry' eyes widened as he moved, jumping, and pulling Ginny down,
rolling on the ground with her as three killing curses sailed through
where she had been. Her eyes were open as far as they could go as she
realised how close to death she had been while Harry lay on top of her.
He smirked and stole a chased kiss, which brought her back from her
shock, and causing her to blush while her heartbeat sped up.
However, he hopped back to his feet, pulling her with him, looking
around as Rose was actually holding her own against two brazen, Death
Eater's, protecting June while the third was down, and the twins were
helping some Order members with some straggling trolls and goblins.
Harry was pleased to note that while he held Ginny's soft and fine body
close to his that the Order were not holding back like they had before if
what he had read about them was even half as true.
"Are you, okay now Ginny?" he asked her, concerned. She nodded her
head, regaining her breathing. "Good, do you think you can help Rose
while I get in the thick of it?" he asked her with a reassuring smile.
"Yeah, I'm fine now, thanks," she agreed, pausing for a moment she stole
a quick kiss back before rushing to Rose's side while Harry grinned as he
rushed off into the fight, Odin still beating on the trolls, so left him to it
with that tiny Professor back to kicking troll butt too.
"I can't believe this!" Rose said to Ginny as they downed the two
remaining Death Eater's together as they were not much, and only lasted
so long because it was two on one and put Rose in the defensive after she
cut up the third one.
"I think we're actually winning for once, and did you kiss my brother?"
she asked, smirking as they were now up against some more low-level
punk Death Eater's that thought they would try their luck fighting kids,
cowards.
Ginny blushed, but looked pleased. "Yep, but he is freaking hot, nice, and
awesome. He shot out a freaking lightning horse knight guy thing out,
how cool is that?" she said and Rose knew that was all the reason either
would need to like a boy.
"Yeah, that is wicked cool," she agreed smirking when a spell skimmed
her left cheek cutting her. She started for a moment then turned to the
offender and she was not happy, and he took steps back when she flicked
her wand.
"Incendio!" she shouted out with a huge red fireball shooting out of her
wand, it smashed straight into the offender, blasting him back and setting
his robes on fire where he withered on the ground, crying in pain. They
may not have been taught much Defence against the Dark Arts, but they
had brilliant charms and transfiguration teachers, and both subjects
covered conjuring all sorts of things, fire included.
Meanwhile over twenty Death Eater's had broken free from the other
fighters and teamed up on Harry. He was signed, and cut up having to
dodge this way and that, and they did not give him a chance to use
magic.
He could not call Odin's aid as the summoned creature was running out
of magic, and had to finish dealing with most of the trolls if not all before
his time is up; it was lucky there weren't too many. Harry would not be
able to summon anything like him again for around twelve hours or so
even if he had enough magic for another feat like that again that day.
However, he felt the presence before anyone else, just before he appeared
in a sonic boom of white light, a beacon of hope. The windows and glass
shattered if it had not already been broken throughout the street with his
mere arrival. It was quite the impressive entrance, and Harry made sure
to remember that one to try out himself one day if the opportunity ever
came up.
The old man, Albus Dumbledore appeared, wearing bright blue robes
with silver stars and moons comfortably embroiled into the rich material.
However, his normal sparkling blue eyes were not twinkling over his
half-moon specs; these were of a man who would no longer let you get
away with murder to preserve the status quo of light and dark, black or
white when he now saw all of the other shades, and colours.
The fighting had paused for a moment, except for Odin as he took
advantage of the trolls' distraction. Albus Dumbledore swept his wand,
standing beside Harry, and three Death Eaters screamed as a huge wind
picked up and they went flying, crunching into a solid wall, slipping to
the ground, and not getting up again as blood pooled around their heads,
their summoned masks dissolving away in black smog as proof of their
deaths.
It took the remaining Death Eater's a moment to realise that this was the
Great White Wizard Albus Dumbledore, and he had just taken out three
of their numbers with just one sweep of his wand. They looked from him
to the young man standing with him working some kinks out of his
muscles and they took steps back, near shaking.
"Fire and lightning is my main thing," Harry commented whimsically.
"I've always been fascinated by the way they give and take. They hold
life, yet they can also take it so easily. They are truly powers to respect,
but then all of… such compound energies deserve such reverence and
respect. However, as I said, my favourites have always been lightning
and fire. They shine their light on the world and make the darkness fade
to dust."
He was grinning at the end of his little speech. It terrified them, blood
dribbling from some cuts, and scrapes, his breathing laboured, and he
looked more dangerous than anyone they had ever seen before. They
stepped back as he raised his right hand with a fireball igniting a centre
metre from his palm with just a click of his fingers.
"You've seen my lightning, now check out my fire!" he said before firing
them in little pulses of deadly fireballs, growing out larger as they shot
forward, one after the other until he was firing from both hands.
The Death Eater's were fortunate to pull up shields, screaming in terror as
the fighting continued around them as the Order and aurors went on the
attack, using the distraction with renewed hope, and destruction to their
advantage. The shields protected them but they surely felt the power as
the flames exploded into their flimsy and weakening protections, burning
them through shear heat alone.
"I've always been partial to the air, so gentle, and giving, yet when it
shows its fury!" the old man spoke, his voice travelling with magic so
they heard him. "A practical lesson for you I think!" Dumbledore put in
thoughtfully. "What happens when you breathe life into flames?" he
asked as he made some patterns with his wand.
"Spiritus!" the old man hissed the spell with a slight quiver to his voice,
showing his pity and mercy, but holding that back from them because for
one, he agreed; they didn't deserve his mercy.
The whole street shook as the wind, blast up, fuelling the flames and they
exploded. The street went quiet as some buildings nearby half collapsed
as bricks were completely shattered by the shockwave, unable to take
any more pressure. Odin's work had been done as the remainder of his
magic left and he faded away as everything had gone still, as if time itself
bowed before these two mighty sorcerers combined power.
There was a cloud of smoke and debris as they waited and watched. It
drifted away leaving a massive crater in the ground with the remains of
the Death Eater's; unrecognisable messes of burnt nothing, cinders of
cloth smouldering, flames littering the ground with blood and flesh.
Harry was impressed with how well Dumbledore capitalised on his magic
as his hands still smoked a little with steam from his flames. He wasn't
named one of the greatest wizards of all time for nothing, it seemed. If
the old man wanted to fight hard and deadly, he could, and did a good
job of it too, but when the Romans call for war, do as the Romans would
or your loved ones will be raped and pillaged of their land, their
property, their dignity, and then their lives or freedom.
The old man, Albus Dumbledore turned from the scene with sad and
weary blue eyes as he looked to the remaining fight, to Rosette and
friends with cuts and bruises, to the Death Eater's that would dare harm
innocent children, and force them into a recourse where they had to sully
their hands with battle and death at such tender ages.
Harry turned next, checking his sisters and Ginny were okay as he sent
them out to fight. They were a little muddy and cut, with some bruises
but otherwise looked to be in perfect health.
The Death Eater's looked to them both, as they looked around, the
remaining goblins already fleeing, and they stepped back, fear evident in
their eyes through the eyeholes of their masks as they saw the two most
dangerous wizards were waiting, waiting to strike.
"Throw down your wands and surrender, NOW!" Dumbledore
commanded and they quivered as the old man was leaking over a
century's accumulated magical power and they were terrified as the
'game' had changed, no longer would they survive to murder another
day.
The Death Eater's now knew that if they continued that they would die.
They looked around from Order members to aurors to see the same cold
looks on their faces. This was different, they looked to the young man
stood with Dumbledore, and they knew, things had changed, and they
were not going back. They had declared war, and this day, their
declaration had finally been answered.
The Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic had finally accepted,
this was war, and in war the enemy either dies or they are captured as
Prisoners of War. They did what they had to and threw down their wands
and rose their hands to rest on top of their heads as instructed while they
were arrested, not as criminals or terrorists, but as Prisoners of War,
which meant no trial, straight to jail as the evidence of their war crimes
were plain as day here before these soldiers.
They were dragged off in cuffs while Harry had reconnected with his
sisters and Ginny, hugging the three girls' in-turn before leading them
back into the twins joke shop where they would be out of the way. There
they would also get some much needed rest.
Harry was sitting them down and checking over their injuries when
Dumbledore entered with the twins' moments later. The old man had a
sad smile for a moment before it broke into a grin as he has seen so much
tragedy over his life. It had become too easy these days to push the
moment aside for a bright smile with twinkling eyes with the hope that it
will make others feel better, even though he may be kidding himself
there.
"Mr. King, I believe!" the old man said with a hitch as his voice was
chipper when he did not feel too chipper right then, as he shook Harry's
hand while he nodded, wondering what he wanted. "I saw the memories
of your feats in Hogsmead, and I must say, most impressive, but seeing
them in person…" he said with a kind smile. "I had been hoping to meet
with you before the school year starts, you see. I suppose I'll jump to the
chase, no use beating around the bush.
"It is always quite the hassle to find a defence teacher. Especially one
competent enough to, shall we say teach anything of real use… the
students' need someone with… shall we say, your kind of talent!" he said,
chuckling.
Harry turned, seeing to Rose's cheek as it was still bleeding, and a soft
blue glow later it stopped bleeding, and should heal over within a few
days if he performed that spell right, healing was his weakest weakness,
but she could always see a professional later.
"So… you want me to teach defence classes for you?" Harry interrupted
as he massaged Ginny's left wrist, helping her ease the pain of a slight
twist while she relished in the attention. However, he did not need the
nod to continue. "Okay, I'll teach your class, but I'll need some
equipment. I will forward you a list of the things I will need. I would also
like for you and the staff to overlook me potentially… being with a
student in a frankly, none teacher student way."
"Very well," he agreed sounding relieved. "After all, you are only sixteen,
it would be unhealthy for you not to want to… fraternise with the female
populous like the average teenage boy. So I'll next see you on the first of
September at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry…," he said
smiling. "Girls, Fred, George, take care. I'll have Molly come by and take
you all to Sirius's house," he said as he leant in and whispered the secret
into Harry's ear before heading out.
"Weird dude," Harry commented as he took a space on the counter next
to Ginny while playing with a deck of cards he found on the side. "So,
who is this Molly?" he asked looking from Ginny to the twins as they
looked more worried now than with the Death Eater's.
"Ginevra Weasley, Fred, George, what do you think you have been
doing?!"
Harry and the others were startled as they looked to the shattered
doorway to see a plump ginger haired woman wearing brown robes with
a flowered apron glaring at them all.
"Our mum...!" Ginny said; quivering worse than when they fought the
Death Eater's, and he had to wonder about that and whether he should
flee now.
to be continued…

Disclaimer!?
King of Bandit
Chapter 8
Lost in the Depths of Death
Harry sighed after that Molly Weasley woman had reprimanded her kids,
his sisters, and even him for fighting with the moron Death Eater's while
being too young. Then he had to grimace in disgust and horror as the
'plump' woman squished the life out of her sons and the girls, though
thankfully leaving him alone. He shivered just thinking about it. There
was just something wrong with people who were too nice.
She had been given orders to lead Harry and his sisters to this Sirius
Black guy's house, where they held meetings for this Order of the Phoenix
group of Dumbledore's. He was 'secretly' happy to note that she was
forcing Ginny to come with them. So, he was pleased to walk with her as
she really was that fine and then some.
Rose and June followed them as they moved outside. The Weasley twins
had to stay to sort out fixing their shop along with getting rid of all the
bodies, and to make sure stock did not go missing. The alley was
swarming with people, aurors and ministry personnel trying to get the
place up and running again as soon as possible as time was money.
The street was a mess with people down and out it was-covered in blood,
and bodies littered the cobbled stones. There were mediwitches,
mediwizards, and healers seeing to injuries, and others being-levitated on
stretchers, some with blankets over faces, and some receiving treatment
while on route to hospital.
It was a conundrum of chaos and mayhem. They could hear people
crying, in pain, begging for help even while medical personnel were
giving it. The second attack had been so unexpected that it cost a lot
more.
There were people who were obviously delirious with spell-addled minds,
and others laughing in a delirium. It was terrible seeing so many people
hurt, even children, some having lost family were-being carted off.
Harry shook his head as he followed Mrs. Weasley towards the leaky
cauldron. He tried not to sigh too much, but if he could help teach the
Hogwarts students how to protect themselves from things like this then
he should. It was partially why he accepted the crazy old guys offer. That
and it would be easier to protect his sisters with the power of a teacher,
rather than what might have made more sense of enrolling as a student.
In addition, given the roll of teacher at a school of proper sorcery he
would have all-access to any of the books the school had to offer, which
was a bonus as his sorcery was pathetic. He might actually have to go out
and buy a wand of his own sometime soon.
Then he had other possibilities. He knew the Potters were an old wealthy
family, so with Rose's help there. Maybe he could rob the library blind, if
the idiot James Potter had not gotten rid of the books for whatever stupid
reason, likely because 'books are your nerds'. Then there was this Sirius
Black guy, maybe he would have some pretty neat books considering his
family was old and rich too.
It took him a moment to erase those thoughts for a while before he
turned his attention to Ginny, walking beside him. He had always had a
liking for red heads, but then he did like other hair colours too, or just
pretty girls in general. She sure was cute the way her pale skin darkens
with red when she was embarrassed.
She kind-of reminded him of Ellie. He had met her a while back while
they were both about twelve. Well thinking. He was twelve and she was
about ten. He had gone for a walk, near the beginning of his trip while in
some backwater town in South America. Though, Ellie's hair was reddish
brown, and her skin tan from all the sun, they both had vivid chocolate
brown eyes and cute freckles.
Ellie had run away from the orphanage after some older boys had tried
molesting her. Her mother and father had not long since died in a car
accident. They had been wealthy, and from Tennessee. He liked her
southern accent, it was cute. However, she had gotten into some trouble
with some travelling biker gang who might have been ditching the law
south of the border.
They were rednecks, and not the cool and somewhat amusing kind you
would see on show like Dukes of Hazards or the likes. These were-those-
kinds that crept you out for no real reason with just a look; the type of
men you just knew meant you harm; the racist-wife beating, child
hurting kind who didn't believe in the law and thought it was beneath
them.
He shuddered just remembering them and the fight he got into. Thinking
of it, other than sparing, and tufts with friend's that was his first ever
fight, and the first damsel he ever rescued. That orphanage would be shut
down for kidnapping her in the first place. The boys it would turn out
were to 'initiate' her, having been well groomed and trained themselves.
Ellie went back to live with her uncle and cousins in California on their
ranch, or whatever you would call it. It must be nice living out in the
country with horses and such. He liked horses; they were pretty reliable
when you needed to flee some douche on a motorcycle.
Anyway, shaking those memories away for now he looked over Ginny
while she was blushing but taking sneaky looks at him. He smiled and
gave her a wink, which brightened her smile and blush.
He looked back at Rose and June as they held hands and followed close
by, smiling at him when two filthy looking men charged out of a side
alley, grabbing both girls with sneering smiles.
"For the glory of the Dark Lord!" they both roared out disappearing in a
ripple of white light.
Harry's eyes widened as he left Ginny's side while Molly Weasley had
turned, crying out in despair, but he was too late to try pulling them back
as he reached out for the wormhole it was gone completely. He turned as
Ginny screamed out in surprise as a third man came charging out behind
him, grabbing Ginny with this filthy look in his eyes full of glee.
They both disappeared bringing back memories of Ellie and her
attempted abduction, and her abduction by that orphanage just four
years ago…
Even as he performed some magic while Molly Weasley screamed in
panic, aurors, and remaining Order members came charging over in
worry, he was in his memory.
"I beseech your wisdom, Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt!" he invoked with
a blinding flash of light swirling around him as he opened his arms wide,
white feathers exploded out around him in a white feathery whirlpool.
"Hone in on my youngest blood!" he continued as everything stopped to
watch. "Please, show this humble man your mercy to find your sisters,
my sisters, and bring them home to safety!" he cried out and all sound
stopped for a moment as the light exploded into a thin inch round
column of light reaching into the sky with Harry gone before it splashed
away like the light was water.
"Filthy little brat!"
"We'll teach you not to mess with your betters!" the yokel bumpkins were
jeering out at the twelve-year-old boy with the piercing green eyes.
The boy had a mock-confused look as he looked around at all of the leather-
clad men, in total thirteen. Some had beards while others didn't, and behind
them stood thirteen motorcycles. They were carrying chains and knives, and
Harry was certain one or two had handguns, possible more, knowing these gun
toting types loved to pack heat, and loved to kill even more, whether a bear or
deer, or even a human.
He then looked himself over, wearing a white shirt with the top few buttons left
undone it was neatly tucked into his black slacks with shiny black shoes, and
a black suit jacket left open to complete the look. He had been at a gathering
of sorts that he stumbled into and a strange woman insisted that he dressed the
part. However, he got bored so wondered off outside into the dark of night to
get some fresh air.
He looked behind him where a ten year old girl sat, kneeling with her dirty
yellow dress torn enough so that he could see some flesh, her panties missing
as she tried to hide her embarrassment as they had been torn off and the
pieces of material lay on the floor. She was lucky he came when he did as he
had to see some disgusting man put it away, unsure of the situation now Harry
was on scene.
The girl was small with naturally tan skin and soft brown eyes and freckles
along her nose and cheeks with long reddish brown hair to her shoulder
blades. She had tears in her eyes as she whimpered and tried to hold off from
crying.
Harry's green eyes looked up at the men with a rage he had never felt before.
"Betters!" he repeated with a sneer to his voice. "All I see is thirteen men who
are about to get the crap beat out of them," he commented with the utmost
confidence and assurance.
However, the men burst out laughing at the same time, heads held high in
mock. Then one man strangled out a cry, whimpering and the laughing
stopped for wide-eyed horror as Harry had moved. He had punched one man
in the stomach so hard he spit up blood, bent over as the twelve-year-old boy
lifted the large and heavy man above his head, on his clenched fist before
tossing him bloodied into a wall.
"Oh, my apologies," Harry said whimsically brushing his hands in mock. "I
seem to have miscounted. It shall be twelve men I'll be beating up today, one
for each year of my birth!" he said with a wicked grin.
It started with that moment as their anger took over any reasoning they might
have had left. The first was a man with a knife, but Harry dodged back, his
right hand coming up he grabbed his wrist and using the man's own
momentum slammed him head first into a solid wall, cracking the bricks and
he went down in a bloodied heap.
The rest of the men paused, hesitant, but Harry had no such hesitation. He
shot forward and up, leaving the ground. His right foot smashed into one beefy
man's face, shattering his jaw and spilling his teeth as he went flying back,
crashing into the bikes, toppling several over and he wasn't getting up.
However, while still in the air, Harry back-round-house-kicked another in the
throat where he started chocking, dropping to his knees, clawing at his throat
in panic while Harry grabbed onto two of the men's faces as they stood
together and with the momentum slammed them painfully into the ground,
cracking skulls.
He stood up, his emerald eyes glowing as he looked to the last seven men as
they backed up, showing signs of fear.
"W-what in hell are you, you monster!" one of the men demanded looking at
Harry with hate and fear.
"No… you're the monster," he replied, smirking. "And I'm the monster hunter!"
he said as he dodged as one of them pulled out a revolver, firing, the bullet just
hit the floor in a bang. "I see, so it's time to bring out the big 'guns'?" he asked
as they watched with wide eyes as a yellow ball of energy pulsed in his right
hand, and boom, the gunman got it to the face, hitting down he slid down the
far wall with a smouldering face, blast back by the attack.
"Y-you're some k-kind of witch!" one of the men screamed out in terror and
hate. "Y-you're a heaven of the devil!" he roared out stepping back.
Harry just looked baffled and offended. "I'm not a witch, I'm a boy, and
witches are GIRLS, are you slow or something. I kind-of prefer the term mage
anyway, it's more unisex. And I don't get where a piece of scum like you gets
off calling me a heaven of the devil when you're child attacking murderous
bikers, like seriously double standards duckweed!"
He was smirking as they started trying prayer. "Seriously, dicks like you go to
church?" he asked mockingly. "Well here's a proper prayer for you. It's odd, I
never thought I would ever use it as it has such restrictions, but you meet them
all," he said sounding quite awed by that himself.
"Ensnare and bind this contract, Warden held in reverence!" Harry begun with
a soft murky green light caressing around him in a swirl with the light twisting
into the ground the floor began to shake. "I ask of your favour, bring forth
your binds," he said softly hands palms up; they were lit with light and
warmth. "And hold these villains of darkness bound, their judgement shall be
yours, Warden of the Dark Realm!"
Harry finished with a sweeping bow as he stepped back, panting for breath
because of the exertion, which went unseen as he used his power to invoke the
magic. Then the green light faded the men looked relieved as nothing happened
and started mocking him, sneering.
"So that's the power of your god!"
"Pathetic!"
"The Warden is not a goddess," he answered softly. He smiled as they paused
when the ground exploded up and opened. Black tentacle vines bursting forth,
ensnaring the men, unconscious or otherwise, along with their bikes and
pulling them through the fissures before it sealed up moments later, it just
happened so quick all they heard were the men's screams.
"Idiots," he muttered as the last screams died down.
"You will pay your contract child!" whispered a soft, feminine voice from the
shadows. "Those foolish human men will not be sufficient for my-summon. I
shall return someday to claim my payment. Head my warning young
summoner, and do not dare ask of us without true need, or you'll get hurt," she
finished before she faded away and he made a promise to heed her warning.
He sighed since she was gone. "It's all just magic, all of it, we don't need to give
reason or label anything," he commented out of nowhere, reciting what his
grandfather had told him many times before. Shaking his head he turned to
the girl; she whimpered.
He smiled as he crouched down, offering her his hands. "It's going to be okay
now… I'll protect you. My name is Harry, what's yours?" he asked gently.
"I-I'm Ellie," she whimpered out timidly before he had to brace himself as she
flew into his arms sobbing. "M-my mummy and d-daddy are gone and t-they
won't send m-me home to Uncle B-Billy and m-my cousins in C-California!"
she cried as he held her tightly.
He couldn't help but feel bad for her, but in the end he managed to smuggle
her out of Mexico and back into the States where formal charges were made
against the Mexican Child Services once she was reunited with her family or
something like that.
"Let go of us you bastards," screamed Rose in panic; struggling against
her captor, their wands taken and thrown down a huge chasm into
nothing but darkness. It made her gulp as she was pushed and shoved
with her little sister clinging onto her in horror and Ginny beside them
trying to act tough. She had been satisfied that two of the original Death
Eater's ran afoul of Kir as the guy bit them before he had to flee, turning
invisible she was certain he was following them.
Rose, Ginny and June had been brought to a massive grubby dark cavern
lit with huge torches with flames, not that they took away any of the
creepy secret lair vibe with many more Death Eater's. She had not even
known or thought that there were that many Death Eater's, especially
since Harry had been killing them all off, and she doubted this was the
tip of the racists reach.
The cavern led up towards some kind of pedestal where she just knew,
'he' sat on that throne wrapped in his black cloak with a hood up hiding
his face like the melodramatic prick he was. She could feel his cold eyes
moving with them, and the scar on her forehead stung.
However, she gritted her teeth in anger more than anything. She knew
her anger would keep her focused, grounded, and stable. She ignored the
jeering and cheering Death Eater's as she looked from 'him' to the
'spectators'. They ranged from young to old, from human to goblin, and
then some other creatures she would have never expected.
She had just discovered her big brother and now they were going to die.
What would Harry do? Would he avenge them, and go on a murderous
rampage. A part of her really did hope he did, but she couldn't tell, not
knowing him like she should.
They were stopped before the Dark Lord Voldemort as he stood from his
throne; carefully he pulled his hood down with long bony fingers to
reveal his deformed snake like features and crimson eyes with slimy
baldhead. She felt June quivering more as she looked upon him for the
first time, but Ginny just stared him down with her.
"Hello Tom!" Rose said, holding back the hitch in her throat as the jeers
and noise went down. However, at her words the jeering went back up as
she looked around in disgust, their capturers having left them, but they
were surrounded so it looked like they would never get out of this mess.
The jeering cut out abruptly as the Dark 'Lord' rose a hand for silence.
"Well, finally Miss. Potter," he spoke in a cool and calculating way, as if
weighing everything he could say and choosing his words carefully. "I
must say, I hadn't expected to see you… your sister, or friend so soon, but
luck befell these three it seemed, until two were bitten."
"Harry will come for you all!" Rose spat out and the uneasy shifting told
her they were all aware of him by this point.
Voldemort's lips curled up in a sneering smile. "Ah yes, the fabulous Mr.
Harry King, quite the ruthless and powerful killer. If he wasn't such a
thorn to my people I would be quite pleased to meet him!"
"Wow, such an honour coming from a dick like you!"
They were all startled as Harry knocked a few, Death Eater's out of his
way as he stepped out from amongst them almost looking bored, but the
danger in his eyes warned of a man who will not play around this time. It
did not take Voldemort's control for them to not attack right then, they
knew it could mean instant death.
"How did you get through my wards?" Voldemort demanded, enraged,
and annoyed as his eyes flickered to see quite a few of his Death Eater's
showed signs of fear and trepidation.
"Magic," he replied whimsically as he stood by the girls. "Do you know
how annoyed I was when your filthy inbred mongrels took my sisters and
new friend? Almost as angry as Artemis when a man used her tracking
magic, kind of had to make a deal with her about something, but well,
where was I, right, you filthy mongrels took my girls!" he said coldly to
hisses of anger but Voldemort's look quelled them.
"You dare insult our pureblood-!"
Harry interrupted with a laugh. "Not so pure when daddy was a muggle!"
he retorted further enraging the Death Eater's as they didn't believe it,
but many other creatures did and really didn't care as they were not
wizards and likely had their own agenda anyway.
Rose looked at Harry in awe while holding her sister tight and taking
Ginny's hand so they were not separated if they were going to be running
anytime soon. She did not know how he knew of Voldemort's muggle
father, but what truly amazed her was how he was insulting the Death
Eater's like it was a joke, fearless in their own cave. Though, if she got
out free she would have to ask what he meant by his comment about a
deal with, some girl called Artemis.
"Do you think us a joke, boy!?" the Dark Lord demanded, moving closer
and drawing his wand, his minions moved further away. He completely
ignored the muggle father comment, but most of his minions were too
stupid to notice he didn't deny it.
"Of course not," he replied, smiling as blue light materialised a silver
handgun in his right hand shocking many. "But I did restock on bullets,"
he said and in three bangs one after the other, three Death Eaters that
'snatched' the girls fell to the floor with bloodied holes in their heads. "So
I'll tell you once and I won't tell you again, stay the fuck away from my
sisters and their friends!"
The chamber was eerily quiet as Harry raised the gun to Voldemort while
the Dark Lord readied his wand. He was not ignorant enough to not
consider the muggle weapon dangerous, especially after the
demonstration. Plus he had lived in the muggle world as a child.
Then it happened. Harry fired and fired and fired at Voldemort. The Dark
Lord reflected two bullets before the third shattered into his shoulder. He
was staggering back under the impact.
"Get him!" Voldemort screamed as he fell to his knees holding his wound.
"Get them all, kill them, do whatever you want, just kill him!"
Harry smirked as he turned from Voldemort to the Death Eater's
switching for a new and full magazine in his gun before they could fully
react he had shot down three more men and panic started up. It was in
human nature to fear death, so the weak nearby, screamed as the
cowards they were, which caused a chain reaction as they started fleeing
as Harry just emptied his gun into the crowd while they trampled each
other to death in a semi-stampede in their desperation to get away.
"You can always count on a cowards fear!" Harry said to the girls in
amusement as he grabbed them and started dragging them through the
crowd, guiding them and slamming the crap out of any wise guy while
Voldemort was yelling over the noise, screaming for order, screaming for
Harry's death.
Harry led the girls down a narrow passageway off the side of the cavern,
not sure where it led, but it had to be a nicer place than with the Death
Eater's. They had to squeeze through tight rocks while sprinkles of water
leaked from above, soaking them through, and by the time Harry pushed
Rose and June through into a small chamber, and pulled Ginny out they
were tired, sweaty and wet.
He laughed a little while the girls panted for breath. "Sorry, but I bet you
and Ginny are glad you're not too big in the chest or we would have been
stuck," he teased the two older girls for his own amusement and to
lighten the mood.
"I-I can't believe how you got us out!" Rose said, blushing and choosing to
ignore his comment as it was kind-of true. "They pretty much let us get
away; I can barely believe it was as simple as randomly shooting into the
crowd."
Harry shrugged sheepishly. "It's only a natural response to danger. I just
played on their own fear of death and the large numbers that would try
getting out of my line of fire."
"So, how are we going to get out of here?" Ginny asked looking up at the
huge rocky walls going up, then to the small squeeze they came through
before frowning as she noticed the light, startling as four white balls of
light just drifted around them. "Where did the glowing balls of light come
from?" she asked, curious and concerned.
"Magic," Harry replied, rolling his eyes. "How many more people are
going to ask me such ridiculous questions when it's always magic?"
"Umm… how about, how are we going to get out of here? Or how did
you get in here?" Rose asked looking at him with raised eyebrows as if
waiting for a witty comment.
He just smiled, amused while June moved from her and climbing into her
brother's arms, allowing him to carry her. "Climb is your first answer, and
yes, magic is the answer to the second."
She groaned, rolling her eyes as they looked up the jagged walls. "You
expect us to climb up there with no rope or magic?" she asked as if she
expected him to say he was joking, which wasn't going to happen as he
shook his head and helped June onto his back.
"Okay, June, hold on tight," he said, and without even waiting for Ginny
and Rose to realise he was one hundred percent serious he grabbed hold
of the wall and started climbing as if he were going up some stairs.
Ginny and Rose looked up in worry as they watched him climb, and in
some cases jump from one hold to another, making it look easy until he
was several feet high and reached a more open area where there was a
ledge formation to climb further up.
"Come on you two, hurry up!" Harry called down as he wore his terrified
little sister like a backpack as she held onto him tightly around the neck
with her arms, and legs around his waist, looking down, wide eyed at
how impossible it would seem to climb alone, but he carried her on his
back.
Rose and Ginny looked at each other again, grimacing as they looked at
the rocks, gulping. "I-I can't climb that," Rose said, worried.
"What about me, I'm wearing a robe, it could get tangled and I'll fall to
my doom, my doom Rose!" Ginny added, sounding even more concerned.
"Take it off!" Harry called down as he was listening in.
Ginny looked both uncomfortable and embarrassed as she looked to Rose,
and Rose understood so answered for her. "She isn't wearing normal
people clothes underneath it," Rose called up trying not to show that it
amused her.
Harry sighed, rubbing his eyes. "Just take the bloody thing off and I'll
give you something to wear when we reach the top!"
"Go on Ginny," Rose said giggling at her embarrassed friend. "You're
wearing those undies I got you so Harry will certainly like the show. And
as I said earlier, I've seen you naked; you have nothing to be embarrassed
about."
"Hurry up, school starts in two days!" Harry shouted down, startling
them, and he could still make out Ginny's bright red face from his
platform.
"Just do it Ginny!" Rose said as her friend just stood still as she took her
robe off for her, revealing her tight, pale blue panties and bra, her
fabulous body and smooth creamy legs, and small chest hidden away.
"I like this rescue mission," Harry muttered to himself as he tried to keep
his thoughts clean-ish around his sisters, but what a fresh sight, he
suppressed his smirk.

Disclaimer or Something!?
King of Bandit
Chapter 9
Escaping Lost
It had been hard going for Ginny and Rose, climbing thesharp wall face,
and they were exhausted by the time they reached a small chasm in the
wall that led into path, and they could feel a breeze. They were just
thankful that with every slip Harry somehow managed to save them. The
crawl space was tight, and after giving Ginny some shorts and a tee shirt
they took the time to rest.
"Where did those clothes come from?" Rose asked as the purple sparks
that swallowed his arm as he rummaged into 'nothing' disappeared once
he had taken out the items of clothing from the ripple of space where his
hand and arm had been hidden.
He chuckled. "Pocket dimension. It saves having to carry a backpack or
something when travelling. I can teach you sometime if you like, but
don't expect my results; they're what friends would call flashy or showy,
and take a lot of practice."
Ginny had barely managed to put on the shorts and tee in the small space
as she sat opposite Harry with Rose while June was curled up in Harry's
strong and protective arms. Though, the other two might as well have
been in his arms too since they were so close in the confined space.
"Cool!" Rose readily agreed. "But why were you carrying some girl's
clothes?"
"Oh, they belong to Ocean," he said, shrugging. "I can't remember why I
have some of her things to be honest; I have tons of crap and have no
clue why."
"You're a hoarder!" June laughingly accused.
He smiled and kissed her forehead. "I suppose I am, but maybe we should
try to find a way out of here and back to safety."
Rose and Ginny groaned. "Can't we rest some more?" Ginny asked with
an exhausted sigh. "We're not cut out for climbing without magic, and
then having to do lots of excises."
"Well don't worry," he said with a grin while she and his sister were still
panting with chests rising and falling rapidly. "I'm your new defence
teacher now, so I'll be sure to break everyone of those bad lazy habits."
The two girls paled. "Y-you wouldn't be cruel like that would you?" Rose
asked with a quivering lower lip.
He grinned smugly. "Of course; the old fart didn't ask me to teach just
because it was convenient. He wanted me to teach the students how to
kick ass and not have to look back to see whether someone had revived
the one you fell."
"Anyway, let's go!" he said as he crawled passed them into the tunnel
with the girls following behind him, and prodding June to go first.
"Big Brother...?" June called out after a few minutes of silent moving.
"Umm... can't you get us out the same way you found us?" she asked
timidly.
Harry snorted. "I wish, but well, I could send you three but Artemis will
still be pissed that I used her magic and I already owe her. She might try
to recruit you three into her little... hmm... lesbian harem!"
"Who's Artemis?" Rose asked while sounding highly embarrassed.
"Goddess of the Wilds, the Hunt, or whatever," he said thoughtfully. "You
know from Greek mythology?"
"W-wait, she really exists?" Ginny asked.
"Umm... apparently," he agreed. "I just thought it was tracker magic and
that all of the warnings in books were written by superstitious people.
But then I did summon a hell-goddess of some kind when I was twelve, so
I should have probably seen that coming. I still owe her something; I
should probably lay off summoning something that isn't an eidolon."
"You think?" Rose asked sarcastically. "So... that horse thing in Diagon
Alley was an eidolon?"
"Yea," he agreed.
"Can I learn to summon something like that?"
"You have to make a contract with them, and they can only be
summoned when certain conditions are met. Odin's conditions are quite
simple, and that is that he can be summoned on the field of battle when
I'm vastly outnumbered."
"Big Brother...!" June interrupted. "I think it opens up a little up ahead. I
can see some light!"
"Okay, June, keep going," he said with a playful nudge to her butt. She
giggled before hurrying further where they came out into a path that was
tall enough to stand in and it curved round, lit by glowing minerals in the
damp rock.
"Wow, that's better!" Rose said while stretching her muscles.
"Yeah...!" Ginny agreed with a relieved sight. "But where do we go now,
and how are we going to get out of here?"
Harry frowned before they watched as something streamed into his right
hand from his pocket dimension. It was a blue coloured cell phone, and
they watched as he dialled a number in his contacts list, which was
surprisingly vast and watched as he dialled, placing it on speaker phone
they could hear the ring tone before a girls voice answered.
"Harry!" she called out in a chipper tone. "What do you need...? A nice
warm bed?" she suggested hopefully.
"Rescuing would be good, Kairi," he shot back while his girls were
blushing.
"Harry...!" she wind. "I can't rescue you today I was investigating that
stupid thing in New York, when I was reassigned to check out this thing
in Ireland with some douche bags apparently trying to resurrect some
ancient dark and evil gods, can't you call my brother-."
"I'm not calling him!" he quickly interrupted. "He wants to kill me for
catching us at it at the Guild."
"Good point," she agreed. "Luckily we were mostly dressed, but then that
is what zippers, dresses and skirts are for isn't it. But anyway, I suppose,
you'll have to call and hope Sahara will bail you out, and let's face it she
doesn't have a stupid job so she can drop what she's doing faster than she
would drop her panties for you, lover boy."
"Well, okay, see you later!" he said with a sheepish grin as his sisters and
Ginny's eyes were wide open. "Drop by when you have a chance, I'll be at
Hogwarts once school starts, teaching defence class if you can believe
that."
"I can," she said, laughing. "You're a better fighter than me, so those puny
little wizards and witches will get into shape. They'll need all the help
they can get with that spanner money Voldemort back on the loose!" she
said, laughing before the phone went dead, and Harry shrugged as he hit
another name in his contacts list before Rose or Ginny could say
anything, or ask any questions.
"Hello," answered a strong male voice.
"Hey Rochin, its Harry," he replied quickly.
"Oh hi son, nice to hear from you," he replied brightening. "Did you want
to talk to Sahara, she's in her room. You know she misses you when you
wander off on some crazy adventure," he said, chuckling.
"Um, actually, you'll do … err I need help," he answered a little nervous.
Rochin sighed. "Okay, what do you need?" he asked straight to the point,
more businesslike.
"Could you bring me a Boom-Bridge?" he asked hopefully. "I'm trapped
with three friends in enemy warded territory. I'm afraid we're kind of
stuck at the moment."
"Um, hang on I'll see if my misses can make you one … any specific
location?" he asked.
"Yeah, anywhere but here," he replied with a hint of humour.
"Oh, as bad as that eh?" he chuckled. "Well hang on," he added. Harry
waited a moment when he heard Rochin call his wife. "Elion honey!" he
called out.
"Rochin what is it?" a woman's voice replied.
"Harry needs a Boom-Bridge, and it sounds urgent!"
"Oh, will that boy ever have one week without getting himself into
trouble?!" she called back with a sigh. "I have one here I didn't have to
use, but it will bring him here!"
"That will do," agreed Rochin with a hearty laugh. "You hear that Harry?"
he asked.
"Yeah, that would be perfect," he agreed.
"Good; you have some clothes in Sahara's room for me to find you no
doubt?" he asked suspiciously.
"Yeah, I should do," he agreed nervously.
"Well I'll be about ten minutes… those knowing the family we'll all be
there in around ten minutes," he laughed. "Well, good luck kid, and look
after your friends," he said before the phone line went dead and Harry
placed it away in his pocket.
"What's a Boom-Bridge?" June asked quickly to stop Rose asking
something embarrassing.
"It's like a walkway from one location to another... a magical short cut,"
Harry answered with a shrug. "Pretty handy piece of magic when you
want to get around sorcerers wards."
"What's the deal with those girls, Kairi and Sahara?" Rose had waited
long enough for her answers.
"Close personal friends," he answered with a small grin.
She smirked as she pushed Ginny into his arms. "Well, Ginny wants to be
a 'close personal friend' too," she said while Ginny went bright red but
didn't leave his arms. "Then for being an awesome sister I'm sure you do
have some cute friends that you're not doing. I want one. I don't want to
die a freaking virgin and none of the boys at school are any good."
"Umm... okay, fair enough I guess, in our line of work," he agreed to her
surprise as he thought of boys and even girls who would be interested
and held Ginny a little tighter to his chest as he really did like her. "Well,
I have... but... that is kind of weird but... you know what Rose, let's get
out of here first, a Boom-Bridge can't be opened inside because it would
cause a cave-in."
"Okay, but I'm not letting you off like that!" she said while he quickly led
the way, holding Ginny's hand while she held his hand and arm to herself
tightly, "and Ginny, you so owe me!" she said with a small grin and Harry
ignored Ginny nodding in agreement because he liked the arrangement,
and would only chose close and highly trusted, good looking friends for
his sister, because he was going to be an awesome big brother.
However, they paused a moment later as they turned a corner and light
from outside nearly blinded them. "Whoa, that is a long way down,"
Ginny whistled in awe as they blinked the spots from their eyes. She
would have never thought that they had climbed so high if she hadn't
seen it with her own eyes, and had to tighten her grip on Harry.
They looked out into the bright sun, trees and plants spreading out a few
miles. Far below was a lake with a large beautiful waterfall to the left
hand side splashing down into the water from a narrow river. They were
looking out of an exit, only someone with wings would feel comfortable
using.
"How do we get down there?" she asked in concern.
"Hmm … jump?" Harry suggested with a shrug.
"What!" the girls all screeched together in panic and fear.
"We can't jump from here! We're like five hundred feet high," Rose added,
looking down exaggerating as she gulped.
"Yeah, I guess you're right," he began with a small grin before Ginny's
eyes widened in shock as his lips attacked hers without warning. He
kissed her gently and her eyes fluttered closed as she felt weak all over,
falling into his arms before he pulled back and her eyes fluttered open.
Ginny's cheeks were aflame with red as her brown eyes lingered on
Harry's lips.
Harry grinned smugly while Rose and June stifled giggles. "Okay, let's get
out of here," he said, picking up June and placing her on his back. "Hold
on really tight, Junie!" And she did as he felt her small body tense up.
"Harry we can't climb down there either!" Rose complained when
suddenly she and Ginny squealed out as he pulled them into his arms,
wrapping his arms around their slender waists.
"Harry, please don't!" Rose cried out but too late as he jumped.
"NO!" the girls screamed as he pushed off from the cave exit. The girls
screamed every second as the lake below rushed up to meet them. The air
was bursting through their ears, drowning down their screams. Harry was
certain that they were going to attract unwanted attention but they had
to get down.
Time seemed to be taking its time, pun intended. It seemed they were
falling for hours when Harry's boots crashed onto the surface of the lake
in an immense explosion. They sunk down without tearing through the
surface, as if it was made out of rubber.
The water around them erupted out as if hit by a meteor, shooting out
and around in a huge circular wave that crashed back towards them.
Harry held his passengers as they rose as the water sprung back. The
waves continued rocking them up and down like a ship in a storm. He
stood straight while the girls continued screaming with their eyes
scrunched up.
"We've landed!" he called out sighing in relief. Though, none of the girls
would quit screaming. It didn't seem like they realised they had landed
safe and sound. "YOU'RE SAFE!" he yelled.
Their screams stopped abruptly and they looked up and around in
surprise since they weren't dead. Looking down Ginny and Rose gasped
as they saw the unsteady water below.
"You're walking on water," Rose declared in awe. "My brother walks on
water, and survives hundred feet falls."
The young King of Bandit chuckled. "Yeah… well let's get on dry land
shall we?" he suggested, and the girls nodding eagerly as he walked
across the surface and onto the bank where to his amusement the girls
dropped from him tiredly crumpling to the dirty floor, almost hugging
the ground. "Well, that was..."
In that moment he was grabbed from the ground, torn off his feet by his
right arm. The three girls screamed again as he was tossed effortlessly,
crashing to the ground a few feet from them.
Harry groaned as he rolled away as a huge rough wooden club came
down towards him, crashing into the dirt where he had been moments
before. Harry sped quickly to his feet groaning, flicking himself up,
unaffected by the previous attacks.
He looked around to see twenty mountain trolls or more. They were large
and stupid. They were between ten to eleven feet tall with huge wide
chests and rippling muscles. They had greying blue skin with ugly twisted
faces on their stumpy heads, each carrying a huge wooden club, wearing
makeshift shorts or loincloths.
The troll that attacked him first had changed course, going for the
weaker prey. It was moving towards Ginny, Rose, and June as they
scurried back in fear, as far away as they could get, which wasn't far
enough as they stumbled over themselves and each other to get away.
The troll near him pulled up its weapon and swung it at Harry's head.
"Augh, bastard," the King of Bandit growled angrily as he put out his left
hand and arm.
The club connected with a thud into Harry's hand. Harry's arm did not
budge as his fingers gripped the weapon, cracking it slightly with the
pressure of his grip. The troll blinked stupidly several times in confusion
for a moment before trying to pull the club back. However, Harry's
fingers sunk in further into the wood, halting its progress. The stupid
beast tried using both arms to pull its weapon free. However, Harry's
finger crushed into the wood more, getting a better grip, and even with
the full weight of the monster pulling on the club it would not move.
Harry averted his gaze from his struggling foe, his eyes darkened,
noticing the troll almost upon his sisters and friend. "Hey ugly!" he
yelled. All of the trolls including his intended looked at him stupidly in
surprise.
Harry raised his right arm and hand, palm out and open. He roared out in
anger, and a huge blue ball of energy formed an inch from his palm as he
ground his teeth in concentration and effort. His emerald eyes were dark
with fury, and power. The energy reached the size of a football, and
launched with a small boom, catching the girls' attention.
The blast smashed into the trolls' torso, gaining an agonising, terrified,
and surprise scream as the energy ripped into him, tearing it apart with
devastating force. It exploded throwing the wailing, broken troll away
across the lake where it crashed into the huge rock wall leading up to the
caverns the four humans escaped: the troll slid down with a large splash,
sinking under the surface and not coming up as blood pooled on the
water's surface.
Harry pulled the club he held back down, and by his side, towards him,
the troll staggered down, nearer the young bandit. Harry used the
momentum, shooting forward and off the ground his left knee connected
with the trolls' strong chest: a huge echoing crack split the morning air as
the beast roared in pain, blood chocking from its mouth. It released its
hold on the club leaving it in Harry's hand as it staggered dizzily
backwards trying to blink its beady eyes to focus.
Harry glared and swung the club under arm, letting it leave his hand, and
it smashed into the trolls head sending splinters flying as the creature left
the ground, flying back, and landing on its back several paces back,
skidding along the dirt floor: Unmoving and bloodied.
The other trolls stood staring at him in surprise, realising despite size
Harry was not an opponent to be trifled with. If they had a choice they
would have already fled, not wanting to risk death, they may have been
stupid but they had survival instincts, and theirs cried runaway. They
weren't up against prey like most humans were, but this time they were
up against the predator.
Harry hopped into the air, backwards and to his right landing about ten
feet away next to Ginny and his sisters. "You guys ok?" he asked. His eyes
never left his foes. He may be able to take a pounding from the idiots
easily, however, Rose, June and Ginny could die in one hit.
"Y-yeah, we're ok," agreed Ginny nervously, "a-are you?" she asked as she
was still in awe, holding June and Rose while they stared at their brother
realising now for the first time they could let it sink in that he was there
to protect them, and was more than capable of protecting them, and
beating all of their enemies to death for them too.
"I'm fine. They're just trolls," he shrugged nonchalant. "They're not just
stupid but they're weak too."
Ginny and his sisters nodded dumbly as they looked at each other. If
trolls were what he considered weak, they wondered what he considered
strong. They would have, if they weren't witnessing it, called him a liar,
but here he was, throwing trolls around, and out powering them
physically. If the trolls were weak to him, then they all came to the
conclusion that when Harry was holding them that he was being overly
careful with them.
"You girls stay put and I'll take care of these freaking bastards," he
declared with a smug smirk.
Harry didn't wait for a reply as he rushed forward, towards his nearest
opponent. The troll saw him coming and swung its club, but Harry just
dodged under the swing. His grey-silver blade attached to his right arm
shoot out of the top of his right sleeve, slicing up at unbelievable speed.
The troll roared in agonizing pain, staggering back as its right arm with
club was sliced clear off thudding to the ground, leaving a thick bloodied
stump, the troll cradled. However, the beasts' cry of pain ended in an
instant as the bandit followed through: the blade deep up to Harry's fist
through its skull and out the other side.
The young man yanked his arm back instantly, deep red fluid spraying
out and dripping off the blade in thick blobs as the troll keeled over with
a loud crash backwards; the blade swished back up his sleeve.
However, Harry did not stop, he dashed on raising his left hand palm out
and finger bent in slightly as if teeth: an eruption of flame sparked to life
with a circle of orange and red runes and symbols, blasting forward with
a roar of power, like a flame thrower or more accurately a dragon
breathing fire, from where it got its name 'The Fire Dragons Roar', an old
piece of magic, used by the Dragon Slayers of centuries past.
The red, orange and yellow flame burst forward in a wave of furious heat
as Harry stopped moving, steadying his feet. His attack engulfing another
troll, which screamed an ear piercing noise, of its death, as it was cooked
alive in the heat. The noise then ceased, and Harry let up his attack, it
splashing out of existence. The black and charred troll dropped to its
knees, its legs cracking and smashing apart as it keeled over, forwards to
its stomach, overcooked, and crumbling into lumps of charcoal.
Harry moved fast, jumping up and to his left, his right foot connecting
viciously with another monsters stumpy head sending it hurtling into a
tree. The trunk shattered and the small tree fell on the fallen enemy as it
cried out, before stopping: unmoving, probably dead, not that Harry
cared to check.
Rose, Ginny and June sat with their mouths wide with their eyes staring
in complete shock and horror as they watched Harry fight. He didn't fight
to capture; he fought to take down, permanently, and they would only
survive if it was an accident. They were sitting on the ground still by the
lakeshore as they watched Harry kicking troll ass with ease.
"Whoa, he's awesome," Ginny whispered in awe.
"That is so cool!" Rose added with a nod of agreement. "I have never
witnessed a proper battle until now. I had never known that one person
could be that strong!"
June nodded absentmindedly as she watched, Harry, 'her' brother hit a
troll with such a forceful punch in the gut with his right fist, it launched
the monster off the ground about ten metres high before crashing down
and not getting up.
Harry launched his left foot back and down, snapping another's leg in
two, which made the girls wince. The troll fell to its knees and Harry just
span. His right foot connected with the trolls face, sending it skidding
across the ground in a boom, as if it was a stone skipping across a lake,
blood flying everywhere before it came to a stop and would not get up.
"I think you should be with my brother," June surprisingly commented,
briefly glancing at Ginny while Rose was nodding in agreement. "He is so
awesome," she added.
Ginny nodded with a dreamy sigh when she, Rose, and June started as
they heard a growling noise above them. They noticed a large shadow
had come over them. Their eyes widened in fear as they looked up, eyes
locking with the menacing trolls. It swung its large club up over its
shoulder with its right arm and brought it swishing down with a whoosh
of wind. The girls held each other tighter in fright, closing their eyes as
they expected it to be their end.
However, something was wrong. They felt no pain, and they were still
very much awake, and alive. The girls slowly opened their eyes and
looked up in shock to see a big built man in his mid to late forties. He
was about six foot five feet tall. He looked like he had plenty of muscle
then some more.
The man wore a long dark red coat undone, swaying gently in the breeze,
hanging to his knees, with black across the shoulders, and a military
black Kevlar vest with black combat trousers and boots. His hair was a
few inches long, greying blonde in colour, neatly spiked back with a
couple loose strands sticking forward over the right side of his forehead,
and his deep blue eyes held warmth and amusement.
The girls just gawked though, as the man had caught the trolls club mid
swing with his large right hand about an inch from their heads, and the
troll seemed to be pushing with all its might but having no success,
grunting with the effort to continue its attack.
The man pushed the club up with ease and simplicity. His right knee
following through, colliding with a mighty force, which got a strangled
cry from the troll as bone shattered. The man released its club and it
went soaring into the air and back, crashing to the ground about thirty
feet away: unmoving, blood splattering the ground from bone piercing its
muscle and skin.
The man then stood up straight on two feet again, and looked down at
the three girls; a huge grin spread his lips. "Hi," he said conversationally,
in a deep voice that commanded respect, but held a lot of humour and
kindness. "I'm Rochin Kyrue; sorry we're late: you must be Harry's
friends."
Rose, Ginny and June nodded dumbly, and they thought Harry was a one
of a kind: obviously not. But that put up Rose's hopes for her future love
life if Harry had friends like him.
"Hey Dad, I think they're in shock," commented a girls voice, moving
their gaze slightly Ginny and June saw an excitedly grinning girl about
sixteen, seventeen years old had popped up next to them.
She wore tight blue hipsters with some small pockets down her legs and a
black rippled skirt around her waist only halfway down her thighs. In
addition, she wore a tight black top accentuating her fairly large bust;
and showing her lightly toned stomach and her navel, with a tight black
leather jacket left with the zip undone, and on her feet, small black half
boots.
Her hair was an unusual snow white, tied back in a triple plat down to
the small of her back, tied with a red ribbon, and many strands of hair of
a feathery texture flicked out over her forehead from her fringe and
around her ears. Her eyes were a sparkling teal green, kind and happy,
she was definitely a beautiful girl with a fit body. She was five foot five,
and looked down at them with a little lick of her lips as her eyes explored
the older girls.
"I think you're right," the man commented looking the girls over in worry.
"Well let me introduced my daughter, Sahara… and this here's my son
Arctic," he added gesturing to his other side where a young man stood.
He was maybe two years older than Harry, with rusty blonde hair about
three times as long as Rochin's. It was waxed out in messy spikes in every
direction. He had amazing crystal blue eyes, and wore rectangular silver
framed glasses over his eyes. He wore baggy blue jeans, white running
trainers and a long sleeved white tee shirt, more conservative in his
clothes than his sister wore.
Rose liked what she saw but internally sighed as maybe he was more
Hermione's type, as he gave off a nerdy bookworm vibe. Rose sometimes
found it hard keeping conversation with Hermione when she went off
about some magical thing or something, forgetting that Rose was more of
a practical learner.
"Hey! Are you three going to help Harry or stand around talking all day?"
interrupted a woman's voice, as she stepped into view with a kind
motherly smile.
The woman was about forty, but still held her looks. She was five foot
seven, and her snow white hair was short and loose, framing her pretty
face, over her forehead and reaching the bottom of her neck. It was short
in length but long on top. She had amazing sea green eyes.
She wore dark military green female combat trousers with black belt, and
black walking boots, with military green tee shirt accentuating her large
chest, and a sleeveless Kevlar ranger vest with many pockets, left undone.
It had a weird black curved in-signer on the left chest pocket, like the
outline of half an egg on its side pointing inwards with neat printed
writing in black, on top of a small oval shaped faint black gridded map of
the earth: Mystics Council, and underneath that, Watcher, and
underneath that, Ranger Elion Kyrue.
"Ok, we're going mum," chimed Sahara eagerly as she looked over, seeing
a troll getting swung around by its ankle about twenty feet in the air.
Harry was using the fast swinging momentum to stay airborne. How he
got the troll up there in the first place was anyone's guess.
She giggled, amused. "He's always showing off," she commented as she
suddenly dashed forward, seeming to blink away before blinking back as
she charged at fast speeds.
There were about ten trolls left, and they seemed to be waiting for Harry
to kill their friend before they met their ends next. There was another ten
or so dead trolls all around. It looked like a small war had been fought.
She noted wherever they were would have been quite beautiful had the
trolls not been bothering them, a nice picnic location, or place to train, or
quiet place to have Harry screw her senseless: she smiled; maybe those
girls could join them.
Sahara mildly registered her brother and dad shooting off after her
towards the trolls; they should not be too much trouble since the
creatures were so dense and not very strong all around. She had to get
her best friend out of trouble: again.
"He is so troublesome," she commented amusedly to herself. "But I love
the idiot, and wouldn't have him any other way."
"Don't worry girls," said Sahara's mother kindly kneeling down next to
Rose, Ginny, and June. "Those four will get rid of the trolls then we can
get out of here," she smiled. "Oh, by the way, I'm Elion, Rochin's wife, it's
nice to meet you … you aren't hurt are you?"
The girls shook their heads sighing in relief they offered small smiles. "I-
I'm Ginny, and these are Rose, and June, Harry's sisters."
She looked the sisters over in surprise before grinning. "Well, I'm glad
Harry has finally stepped up and found that things have changed. I told
him that he should go and find you but would he listen? No, he waited
until... well," she said with a grin as she trailed off her little rant. "It's nice
to meet you girls, so how did you all end up in this mess?" she asked
eagerly. She wanted to know for her reports, plus there were running
bets on who Harry would piss off next and hoped she won; the pot was
getting quite large.
"Um, Death Eater's kidnapped us and brought us to you-know, um, V-
Voldemort," Ginny began, only mildly surprised the woman did not show
the slightest fear or flinch at the name. "Harry followed us, and saved us
… but he had already been in some fights with Death Eater's and I think
he's tired. He shot some Death Eater's and they panicked and we escaped
down some caves, shot Voldemort too. I bet my mum's worried sick."
Elion had to have a chuckle at how fast she spilt, and she had just won a
tidy sum of money. Well, Sahara mentioned he was returning to England
finally, so it was a sure thing he would piss of Voldemort: it was good to
get inside information.
"Well not to worry, we'll take you home, get you washed up and fed then
get you back home in no time," she readily promised them with a small
grin.
The troll Harry was swinging around crashed into the ground in a
bloodied heap as the young bandit tumbled back down, landing lightly
on his feet with a smug grin as he turned to his next opponent.
Sahara had reached her first targeted troll and flew up and at it with a
swift and fast left spinning hook kick, smashing her foot into the back of
its head: it flew, crashing its stubby head through a thick tree and went
limp: unmoving as she landed lightly in a sweeping motion, giggling at
the troll hanging limply from its head.
Rochin was nowhere near as graceful as his right fist crashed into the
centre of his trolls back. A huge crack reverberating through the valley as
the screaming troll went bouncing across the dirt, trailing blood. His left
leg snapped up, smashing the arm of another, it flew crying out dumbly,
crashing into another, very hard: neither got up, and blood and bone split
from ones arm. He never had patients for dramatics when fighting
weaklings.
Arctic groaned, as he sped towards his first troll. These things were too
boring to fight. They had no skill or intellect. He should have stayed with
the cute girls.
He sped on and slid down, sliding across the dirt, low between and
through the trolls legs; he grabbed its ankles and stood pulling its legs
out from under it. The troll hit the ground hard, stirring the dirty floor,
he raised his right hand and formed a small blue ball of energy an inch
from his palm and lobbed it nonchalant at the floored monster. The
energy exploded on the trolls face with roaring ferocity, and the sizzling
troll no longer moved.
"Hey Harry!" yelled Sahara eagerly as she dodged a club swinging at her.
"Who are your friends, the red heads are really cute, and the brunette in
the few years?" she asked as she cupped both hands to her right hip a
small ball of blue white energy began to swirl within her cupped palms.
"Ka!" she began, the energy growing slightly. "Me!" she added, the energy
beginning to sizzle and roar. "Ha! … Me! … Haaa!" she yelled out,
thrusting her hands forwards. Her wrists pushed together, her hands open
but curved, as an immense roaring wave of blue-white power blasted
forward, tearing the ground on its way, before engulfing three trolls,
which screamed in strangled agony before any sign of them through the
energy sizzled away the beam faded into nothing and the trolls were no
more than dust.
"One red head; the one with freckles is Ginny, the other is Rosette, my
sister, and the black haired girl is my little sister, June" he answered now
she had let up her attack. She just had to show off. His eyes glimpse
Rochin as the old man threw a huge yellow energy disk, slicing two trolls
in two, spilling blood and guts all over, before the disk crashed
explosively into the ground behind his fallen prey.
"Little sister...? Rosette?" she repeated in surprise as her left fist
connected with the last trolls gut, sending it hurling to the ground next to
Arctic where he flung a blue energy ball at its face and it did not move
further.
"Yeah, things change, people change, my sister changed for the better,"
he replied with a grin as Sahara rushed over to him and they embraced in
a huge hug. "It's good to see you," he chuckled as they parted.
"You too; I was so worried when dad said you had asked for help," she
answered, taking his hand and leading him back to her mum and the
girls, followed by her grinning father and her slightly amused looking
brother. "You never ask for help unless you're in real trouble, but then I
guess it was more for the girls' safety."
He sighed shaking his head with a small smile. "Yeah, bloody Death
Eater's and Voldemort, kidnapping my new friend and my sisters… I
would suggest getting the council to come and arrest them all, but they
might have all done a runner by now thinking we've already escaped, and
handing over their hideout."
"Most likely," agreed Rochin with a grin as they all stopped by his wife
and the three witches. "These Death Eater's are bloody filth killing our
people," he clenched his right fist in anger, his expression changing in an
instant. "They keep attacking in small numbers, unexpectedly, so we
hardly arrive in time to arrest them, or better yet kill the bastards when
they resist arrest."
"Your people?" interrupted Rose bravely and confused. "I-I've never heard
of people who can do what you just did before," she informed them,
wondering why they would keep powerful warriors like them a secret.
Rochin's rage disappeared instantly as he looked down at his wife and the
three girls sitting on the floor chuckling as he had overheard Harry
telling Sahara who two of the girls was to him, which meant the third
was too, so he recognised them as witches.
"I mean um… what do wizards call them again son?" he asked looking
expectantly at Arctic, confusing the girls further.
Arctic sighed while rolling his eyes with a small grin at his father.
"Muggles, Dad," he answered.
"Yeah that's it," the older man laughed. "It's a funny name, don't ya
think?"
"Yeah Dad," giggled Sahara, although she was in fact making fun of him,
he either did not mind or did not notice. She actually thought it was a
stupid, disrespectful and insulting name.
"But you're not muggles?" Ginny said in bewilderment.
Rochin chuckled again, his eyes sparkling as he was enjoying himself.
"Never said we were," he agreed with a shake of his head. "Though it's
lucky my best mate Jeff left our house before Harry called. He's an um …
'muggle'," he laughed shaking his head again. "Would have tagged along,
and he would have been here in an instant trying to blast … um," he
looked around and frowned in confusion before shrugging. "Well blast
this place to pieces searching for this, um … oh, what's his name?" he
asked looking down at his wife expectantly.
Elion laughed and rolled her eyes. "Voldemort," she answered for him
with an amused shake of her head.
"Yeah that's the one," he agreed laughing more. "That's even funnier than
muggles. These dark assholes and their stupid names," he chuckled
shaking his head. "Well, as I was saying Jeff's a muggle, well mystic.
Anyway he would be tearing this place up … he wouldn't have got very
far, but still, the man's always crying about how much he wants to throw
lightning bolts at Voldemort and make him dance."
Rose, Ginny and June didn't know why the others found that funny as it
sounded like these people didn't consider Voldemort the great threat that
their people did, and they were confused as to how a muggle could use
magic at all, let alone lightning bolt magic.
"Who are you people?" Rose dared to asked, more confused than when
she saw a boy Harry's size throw around trolls.
Rochin found the girls confusion funny, and laughed hard with his
daughter, Sahara. He moved the left side of his coat aside still laughing,
and pointed to the chest of his Kevlar vest where they saw a similar in-
signer to Elion's, only in red, with neat printed writing: Mystics Council,
and underneath that, Watcher, and at the bottom, Captain Rochin Kyrue.
"I'm a cop," he declared proudly to clear up the girls' confusion, though
none of them seemed to understand.
"He's a police officer, well police captain," Elion tried to elaborate with
little success as they lived too closed off from the real world. "Um, oh…
like an auror," she smiled as the girls expressions turned from confusion
to comprehension. "So am I, well of a different type. I'm a Ranger," she
said proudly pointing to the badge on her vest.
"Yup, I got my badge here somewhere," said Rochin putting his right
hand in his inside left pocket of his coat and rummaging about. He then
pulled out a rectangular leather wallet and flipped it open.
Inside on the right side held a nine-point platinum pentagram star with
rune marking engraved, with some kind of crystal gem in the centre,
which created a holographic illusion of the same in-signer as that on his
vest. In addition, on the other side, a plastic ID card with his picture, and
the same in-signer, though with just Mystics Council and Watcher on it
behind a transparent plastic screen with his name, rank, and ID number
below.
"You're aurors?" June asked shyly as Rochin put his ID away.
"No," he chuckled. "We're Watchers," he laughed. "That's what we call our
law enforcers like me and Elion. Though, she protects animals, and
magical creatures to keep all of the rare ones safe from idiots wanting
them for some reason or another, potions mostly. But then some
supposedly normal animals have magical properties or abilities and she
keeps them under wraps-."
"Can we get out of here," Harry interrupted, drawing everyone's
attention. "I would like to take a shower, and take these three home, and
start my new job; I only have the weekend to prepare."
"You have a job?" asked Elion narrowing her eyes suspiciously. "A job
your grandpa would have loved doing?" she asked in a disapproving tone.
Harry shook his head in the negative, only the witches looked confused.
"I… um, I kinda agreed to teach self defence at Hogwarts."
"Well that's different then," said Elion brightening as she stood. "Come on
you three we can't sit around here all day." She smiled as the three girls
nervously stood and stretched the cranks from their bodies.
They all waited as Elion pulled a small glass ball from her pocket no
bigger than a large marble with a beautiful blue cloud of energy inside.
"This is a Boom-Bridge," she elaborated for the three witches' confused
expressions. "It will take us out of here."
"Why's it called a Boom-Bridge," Ginny had to ask, it seemed a waste of
its beauty to use it.
"That's easy," giggled Sahara as she snatched the sphere from her
mother's hand and threw it to the ground in front of them: Boom! It
exploded, making the witches' jump as the others laughed. It created a
rippling swirl of blue energy open before them, leading in, like a
doorway opened up in space, with a darker path like a bridge leading
onward. The two witches' mouths opened in awe and shock,
understanding the name better.
Rose, Ginny and June had lived within the magical world all of their lives
and had thought that they could not be surprised when it came to magic.
However, in these past two days they had been sorely mistaken. This one
sight was just amazing, especially in its beauty. They had a feeling these
few shocking things might just be the tip of the iceberg, and they had
forgotten that magic was wondrous and vast beyond imagining.
"Well come on you lot before it closes," said Rochin with a huge grin.
Harry grabbed Ginny's hand while Rose quickly followed, holding June's
hand, and they walked into the portal. The witches were awed by the
energy that swirled around them as they saw a white light at the other
end, presumably the exit. Rochin and his family were bringing up the
rear, as the entrance closed giving them only one direction to walk: just a
short way.
"Wow, this mode of travel is awesome," chimed Ginny eagerly with
excitement shining brightly in her brown eyes. "Screw floo, we should
use these everywhere we go – we don't get dirty from soot, or dizzy."
Harry laughed and nodded his agreement. "But still not many people can
make them so they're expensive. We're just lucky Elion's one of those
people who can," he chuckled as the three cute witches' nodded in
agreement.

10. Cherry-Aid
Disclaim this as Canon!?
King of Bandit
Chapter 10
Cherry-Aid
Harry walked out of the boom-bridge still holding Ginny's hand, and into
a large walled off garden, with many flowers. The grass was neatly
trimmed and a stone path led from a beautiful stone two storied cottage
to a large wood dojo at the end.
Rose and June exited next, and looked around with Ginny in awe,
blinking the sunlight from their eyes, as huge grins spread to their lips as
they admired their new surroundings as magical people tended to be so
messy, it was a nice change to see that some magical people took pride in
having as nice garden.
"Wow, this garden is beautiful," commented June joyfully.
"I'm glad you approve," Elion interrupted amused from behind as she led
her family out with them. They turned to see the bridge had closed and
the others stood watching them. "It's a lot of hard work to keep it this
tidy, but a mystic has to have a hobby." The girls could only nod in
agreement.
"Well," Rochin interrupted with a grin. "Elion and I have to get to work,
pull in some reports, and maybe someone will find some evidence from
that place," he said thoughtfully, "and Arctic didn't you promise to help
your uncle out at his shop to earn some cash? Do you want a ride?"
"Yeah," he replied with a sigh. "Well, see you guys later," he said as he
followed his dad to the back gate.
"Bye… and you kids be good," Elion said doubtful they would listen, but
just grinned and followed after her husband and son as she remembered
herself as a young lady and the mischief she got up to.
"Come on let's get inside," Sahara said as she led them in through the
backdoor, into a huge clean kitchen, dining room with many modern
conveyances.
"Well," Harry said with a stretch. "There are a couple bathrooms. I'm
going to go and have a shower and get changed, so come on Ginny you
can join me," he added with a smirk.
Ginny blushed brightly but did not look displeased by the offer. "Well,"
Sahara chimed before Ginny could say anything. "I'll show June the spare
bathroom upstairs, and Rose to the ensuite bathroom in mum and dad's
room. It hardly gets used, mum and dad are always showering at work,
so seems like a waste sometimes," she said with a grin as she and Rose
looked at each other, snickering before she took the younger girls hands
and led them away.
Ginny bit her lower lip nervously as Harry led her towards the bathroom
on the ground floor, but not before leaving his disgruntled snake Kir on
the kitchen table. She double took, looking at him questioningly as the
snake complained and curled up on the newspaper on the table.
Harry shrugged sheepishly. "He was outside waiting for us when we were
attacked, and I didn't get a chance to mention it," he answered her
unasked question as they entered the bathroom, door closing behind
them, and locked the door; his lips attacked hers seconds later, and she
was putty in his powerful arms.
Looking at Ginny, he pulled back and smiled at the blushing red head as
she looked around the room. "You know you don't have to if you don't
want to," he suddenly said, startling her.
Meanwhile, Sahara had left June with a change of clothes and a towel in
the spare bathroom before taking Rose into the ensuite within her
parents' room. It wasn't as large as the other two bathrooms, and only
June's had the bath while the other two were shower only.
Sahara smirked at Rose as she closed and locked the door behind them,
looking the girl up and down, which pleased Rose and embarrassed her
at the same time. She knew that she swung both ways, but being with a
girl her brother had been with, or was with seemed a little out of control,
and made it all naughtier as Sahara flung off her jacket, but then he was
with Ginny.
Rose had never felt so hot in her life when suddenly Sahara was in her
space, smirking. "Hey girl, while Harry and Ginny get to play, it is only
fair that we have some fun too; it doesn't have to mean anything more
than that, just a onetime little thing between girl friends, just to get off?"
"O-okay!" she agreed gulping as there was no kissing, just groping for
each other's crotches. She could do that fine. It wasn't like she and Ginny
hadn't diddled each other off before; they had done it a few times while
sleeping over with each other and sharing a bed.
While Rosette was lost, deep within her thoughts about her curiosity, or
naughtiness with her best friend; her new friend Sahara was undressing
her, and herself to gain better access to her body before they were both
in the warm shower together, naked, cleaning each other with body
wash, and rubbing sensitive areas eagerly so they could both feel good.
Rose felt a little jealous as she played with Sahara's large and firm breasts
on her pale flesh, lathering them with shower gel, rubbing over large
erect, sensitive pink nipples. Rose wasn't small chested by any means but
she wasn't anything like Sahara, but at least she was bigger in the chest
than Ginny or their friend Luna who was smaller than Ginny, and was
another girl she had diddled with, but she was also an oddball. Well, she
had only ever done things like that with Ginny and Luna as she was
certain they were as bisexual as her.
She felt a quiver up her spine as Sahara expertly ran her fingers in a good
area of her body. She had certainly never been touched like that before,
and with her experience limited to only girls that was saying something,
and if life hadn't just changed she would have tried that out on Ginny
and Luna, but she knew things had completely renewed with the return
of her brother; their new hero.
Back with Harry and Ginny they pulled back from their kiss and Harry
smiled as he slipped out of his jacket, and threw it into the corner of the
bathroom out of the way. Ginny's breathing intensified as her eyes
scanned Harry's muscular body in his white shirt, hardly done up so she
could see his solid muscles. She had expected muscle, but his body
seemed like steel, and she could practically feel the electric current of his
strength without even touching him.
Ginny took a nervous step closer into Harry as he reached out with his
right hand gently taking her left; he pulled her carefully further into his
arms, leaning down. His lips touched hers again creating a course of
power of which she had never felt before pass through his lips and softly
through hers, streaming-down her body, making her tingle all over.
Her eyes closed along with his as her hands slid carefully and shakily up
his muscular arms, feeling the neural blade on his right arm. The cold of
the blade brought a pleasant shiver down her spine. Her small fingers
continued moving up over his shoulders and further over and around his
neck as the kiss intensified.
Her fingers found their way into his deep, raven black hair. His hair
texture was soft, almost like downy layers of feather layered a power all
of its own through her small fingers and hands.
Harry's tongue brushed softly at her sweet tasting lips. Ginny loosened
her lips allowing his tongue to touch hers. Her tongue played eagerly
against his as his hands stroked down her body to her shorts; she gasped
in when his hands groped her tight firm butt.
The King of Bandit moved his left hand and within moments, her shorts
fell to the floor. Ginny pulled back from the kiss breathing heavily, and
trying to regain oxygen to her depleted lungs, and starved brain as she
looked at the young man before her, as he smiled she could not help but
smile back as he kicked his boots off.
His eyes drifted down to her beautiful soft legs and blue panties as she
kicked off her shoes. He looked back up to see her pretty blushing face as
she stared at him uncertainly. He would have laughed if he thought that
would not ruin the mood.
Instead, he unbuckled his belt while she nervously watched he pulled off
his trousers, revealing his black boxer shorts before he pulled off his shirt
and letting them drop to the floor. Ginny gulped as her brown eyes
widened, scanning his near naked body.
She startled as he took the bottom of her top in his fingers, but she
allowed him to pull it up and off, throwing it into the corner, showing
her beautiful body. She wore a blue bra matching her panties. Her skin
was soft as his fingers roamed her smooth pale stomach. Her eyes closed
slightly as she felt a steam of energy from his fingertips and she realised
why so many girls could fall in love with someone so attentive to their
needs.
Harry leaned down to capture her lips again as he pulled off her bra. She
felt the magic flick at the clasp, which was amazing to her, and she could
do with learning that trick herself. Her breasts were small but firm. Perky
and cute with stiff pink nipples.
She was blushing-her brightest as he felt them, squeezing gently;
pinching her nipples while she let out a whimper. He sucked one into his
mouth, each in turn, which was a new and exhilarating sensation. His
fingers slid into the waist band of her panties while she leaned back
against the wall as he led her into the shower.
Ginny's panties reached the ground and she kicked them away before
gaining some bravery of her own. Sliding her fingers into the waist band
of his boxers, she tugged and they fell down with 'it' bouncing out semi
before he kicked his boxers out of the shower, and she barely noticed the
warm water starting to cascade down their naked bodies as Harry turned
the shower on.
Her eyes widened as she had only ever seen a few pictures, and never
imagined seeing one that big up close. She knew from older girls when
listening to their conversations as they might have fooled around a little
with boys they liked, and talked or bragged about sizes, and comparing,
and realised now that she would win that without any doubt.
Harry grinned as he took in her gaze, and leant in to her lips, placing his
on hers. Their tongues gently brushed as he ran his fingers through her
soft red hair. His hand's slid down her soft skin, and finished, gently
caressing Ginny's soft, tight butt. Her arms around his waist holding him
tight to her, she could feel his large-semi, stiffening, pushing up against
her soft stomach.
Ginny slowly moved from Harry's lips to his jaw as she got brave,
remembering what she had heard from some of the braver or smuttier
girls at school, even though she was quite sure some or most of them had
marriage contracts or something, and so they would marry that boy
anyway. She was just glad that her family wasn't as medieval as that.
She worked her way down his chin and neck to his collarbone, getting a
soft groan from her man. She moved slowly lower, kissing his solid chest,
trailing her tongue on his body, glancing down at his huge toy with her
chocolate brown eyes. It throbbed, stiffening, getting even larger. She
continued, and moved lower with her kisses until she was kneeling before
him.
Her lips nervously brushed the tip of his solidness, which caused him to
let out a groan of enjoyment. She flicked the tip with her tongue, tasting
it for the first time. She hadn't thought of what one would taste like
before, but it wasn't bad, and made her juices flow more just thinking
about tasting it further.
Ginny licked a bit rougher across the tip, tasting some clear liquid that
came out, and he moaned. She slowly engulfing the tip into her mouth,
sucking hard he moaned more, grunting. She liked hearing his pleasure
as she slowly moved her head up and down with her mouth forced wide
open. He was too much to take fully into her mouth without practice,
and with him she hoped she would get a lot of practice.
She took the base of him into her fingers holding it tight within her small
hand, as she pumped it in her mouth, sucking as firmly as she could
manage with her cheeks caving in, tasting him, enjoying every second,
her tongue lashing against the tip and shaft.
Harry panted and moaned louder the longer and faster she went, she
sucked for what might have been ten minutes or maybe ten hours when
he exploded in noise, holding her hair, pushing her head slightly tighter
into him.
She was surprised as she felt and tasted his seed shooting into her mouth,
a ton of it, hitting the back of her throat, chocking her a little, but
instinct took hold, and she swallowed the warm creamy substance,
enjoying every drop of the strange new taste. She slid up off him blushing
as she licked the last few drops from him, and let it slither down her
throat. She slowly stood, licking her lips clean.
Ginny looked Harry in the eyes, and smiled sheepishly. He grinned at
her, his lips brushing her nose as he pulled her to stand up with him,
kissing the tip of her nose as he worked down to her lips, kissing his way
down her jaw and neck to her collar and breasts.
His mouth came to her right breast first. He took it in his hand along
with the other in his other hand, gently squeezing, and she gasped softly
with a longing moan. He tweaked her nipples gently with his forefingers
and thumbs, she groaned more, whimpering and squirming, lifting her
head up, letting the warm water of the shower splash her face, her eyes
closed.
The red haired girl gasped out when she felt Harry's tongue again flick
her left nipple before letting out her breath steadily. He then licked her
right nipple, getting a similar reaction before taking in her right nipple
fully into his mouth; tasting her, sucking it while Ginny shuddered in
enjoyment.
He tasted each of her perky little nipples several times, sucking them
while Ginny's breathing became ragged and he started kissing down her
beautiful body, kissing her inner thighs as he knelt, tasting some of the
juices flowing down her legs from her beautiful area. Her orange-red
hairs only above her entrance just how he preferred.
Harry kissed directly between her legs, and Ginny let out soft
whimpering-impatient sound so he carefully slid his tongue up and in,
drinking from her as he suckled and her thighs clamped around his face.
She squealed a little, grabbing his head and pulling him tighter to herself
as her fingers wound through his hair.
He tasted her for several minutes, drinking everything before she started
thrusting her hips against his mouth and tongue desperately. Her moans
and groans were getting louder and more frantic. Her small fingers were
gripping his hair tighter as he brought her to climax.
She exploded with a fierce cry, tightening on his tongue and an extra
gush of juices shot free from her, slithering down his eager throat as she
bucked harder screaming out.
She soon slowed down her bucking, her breathing deep, and some
exhaustion taking hold as he drank the last from her, before he slowly
moved up her body. His tongue slipped out of her, and slid up her body
until he reached her lips. She captured his lips, kissing with all the
passion they could manage, drinking from each other.
Harry lifted her, pinning her gently against the shower wall, she felt his
solidness on her small area. She looked into his eyes and smiled lightly,
capturing his lips with hers again. She gasped in pain and excitement
against his lips as she felt him slowly enter her body.
He held her thighs, her legs and feet dangling. Her back was pushed up
against the wall. Her arms were holding him tight, around his neck. They
kissed deeply, Ginny whimpering in pain but content and wanting to
have it all she didn't complain. She gasped out again, pulling back from
his lips, gasping for breath, her breasts heaving, she looked down, noting
he was half way in and a small trickle of blood leaked from her, but she
held him tight.
"W-we can stop if you want," he breathed out to her, noticing the pained
look on her pretty freckled face.
Ginny shook her head. "No-no way," she gasped out. "I-I want this. I want
to feel it all," she smiled with a light blush.
Grinning suddenly she pulled his lips back to hers; her tongue entered his
mouth eagerly. He slid in a little further, groaning himself as it was the
tightest he had had in a while, and soaking wet with hot juices.
He slowly started pumping, working deeper into her tightness as she
groaned out, and starting to get a feel for it as the pain lessened. It took a
while but he soon had it fully and deeply inside her as he continued
pumping.
They groaned and moaned together, all kissing forgotten in their carnal
desire, hugging tight. Their heads were on each other shoulders, Ginny's
legs were still dangling, her small toes twitching in pleasure. He pumped
her harder and faster, both crying out in excitement.
They continued, Harry pumping and Ginny riding her hips for a time
when the red haired girl squealed out loudly, her legs twitching out
straight, stretching her toes. Harry felt her tighten painfully around him
but he loved every moment of it.
Harry groaned out with her as he finally let go. He shot his hot seed deep
inside her, pumping it all in while his lover squirmed in his arms before
he slowed to a stop as he couldn't continue, and was sure she couldn't
either.
She collapse, exhausted in his strong arms, holding him tight while he
kept her up. He felt her suction and clamp on him while he throbbed
with her every breath, pulling up all of his seed into her, as they stayed,
content and well satisfied under the spray of the shower.
They calmed down after a few minutes where Harry pulled out and
placed her on her feet before they scrubbed each other clean, brushed
teeth, and dried off where Harry managed to find her some clean clothes
right for a magical girl of a cream coloured skirt and top to match with a
thin black robe.
Harry pulled on a black suit with white shirt with a black tie done up
neatly with black waistcoat and jacket with a three quarter length black
coat and shiny black shoes. He had neatened his hair and styled it back
and to the sides.
Ginny could only stare in awe as it changed his look from bad-ass to
sophisticated bad-ass in a moment. He straightened out his tie and
smirked at Ginny.
"So you like to see me dressed like this?" he asked as he gave her a mock
spin.
"Wow, yeah, I would have never guessed...! well it really suits you!" she
readily agreed before he captured her lips in a kiss before pulling back,
laughing, and opening the door and leading her out and back to the
kitchen where the others were waiting, and June saw them first with
bright red cheeks.
"Silencing charms...!" Harry complained as Sahara and Rose gave them
small knowing grins. "I always forget those things!" he said, shaking his
head.
"Wow, looking spiffing Harry!" Rose said with a smirk.
"First day of school, got to make a good impression," he said as he
pointed to his watch. "We've been missing for about sixteen hours," he
said with a shrug.
"What...!?" Ginny squealed out in shock as she took Harry's left arm and
looked at his watch. "Mum and everyone will be worried sick about us!"
she declared while Rose had rushed over with June, and Kir was wrapped
around June's neck napping again.
"Do you think they'll be at the station waiting for us, we have about
thirty minutes?" Rose said in a hurry.
"Sure, why not?" Sahara said as she joined them, shrugging. "Harry could
teleport with all of you from here, so good luck, and enjoy the school
year. I'll probably stop by sometime to visit our esteemed Professor King
and you guys," she said teasingly.
It was a few minutes later when Harry realised that he should have been
more careful as he appeared on to Platform 9 ¾'s with his sisters, and
Ginny to find a battlefield. It was as if the world liked to see him fight, so
it was throwing out enemy after enemy. At least he knew he was due
some rest time, and it would be unlikely that there would be any enemies
to fight at Hogwarts, and the old man would be around to fight too, so
that wouldn't be so bad.
Time seemed to slow down for the girls as spells burst towards them from
both-sides, light and dark and their eyes burst open owl like. Harry
pulled them in closer to him without a moment of thought, it was instinct
to him, and crossed his arms around them within milliseconds.
He roared out, and a purple light of power emanating from his body for a
second before a field of purple energy created a shield that domed
around them. Spell after spell smashed and exploded into the shield
rocking the ground with power, obscuring the three from sight with dust,
smoke and steam.
The light and dark stopped firing, standing and waiting in shock as they
had watched the four appear out of nowhere. The Weasley family was on
the light side, and they stood sweating buckets of dread and panic as
everybody held their breaths waiting for an outcome.
The fog of dust seemed to take an eternity to drift down and clear.
Shadows in the smoke slowly revealed four figures standing in front of
the two forces. Harry was standing, slightly behind but in between the
girls a hand on each of Rose and Ginny's shoulder while they faced the
light with wide, shocked eyes, and June was cuddled up to his right hip.
He had a smirk on his lips; his eyes and posture nothing but pure calm.
However, the same could not be said for the girls; their eyes as wide as
dinner plates, and their skin pasty, clammy and pale with fear. The girls
seemed to be in a state of shock. However, purple sparks of light frizzed
around from Harry, arching from him, fizzing out over their bodies.
The young King of Bandit looked over at the Death Eater's, turning his
neck to see them, and his smirk turned into a fully fledged grin that hid
his anger poorly, but he could see they all knew who he was, and they
showed hesitance and practically reeked of fear.
Harry gently nudged Ginny and Rose towards the light, prying off June
she took her big sisters hand, and they walked as if on autopilot until
Bill, and Arthur Weasley pulled them out of the line of fire. However,
Harry never averted his gaze from the Death Eater's.
The young man's emerald eyes watched the Death Eater's coldly while he
still grinned as he turned to face them fully. They all took involuntary
steps back in terror.
"Don't you guys ever take the day off?" he asked in a bored voice, but he
didn't really expect an answer, and they were too afraid to give one.
The Death Eater's looked around at each other in the hope that someone
else would flee first, so they could blame them for being the coward and
calling the retreat because their boss wouldn't care about them doing
what was smart. He would kill or torture them, probably both, for fleeing
this young man as they knew they should, but they still feared their dark
master. The Death Eater's nervously raised their wands ready for a fight.
Harry chuckled in mock-amusement. "There are only nine of you left, and
you haven't even killed one person, which means you are really shit at
this, maybe if you spent more time studying and less time hating you
wouldn't be so outclassed." He smirked as he cracked his knuckles by just
clenching his fists, while sparks still flickered slightly. They flinched as
the noise reverberated around the quiet train station, added to by the odd
flicker sound of sparks.
On the train looking out of the window was one Draco Malfoy with some
of his 'gang', and he had gone sheet white. It had all been fun and games
until the game changer showed up and he knew the remaining Death
Fodder as his father would say were about to go down hard.
"Draco, look, its Potter...!" Pansy Parkinson interrupted his thought,
looking smug as she pointed the girl out. "We could capture her, and the
Dark Lord would be pleased."
Draco turned to her and for once, she flinched as he glared. "You don't
have a clue who that guy is!" he hissed out angrily which perked up some
of his less than helpful female followers interests, and he was quite sure
they just 'played' nice to keep him or the others from bothering them, not
that he much cared anymore.
Two blonde girls, and a brunette girl hadn't been paying attention and
had been playing a card game with the dark skinned Blaize Zabini; the
biggest poof in Slytherin, and that was saying something as he cringed
while thinking about some of the others who were taught that girls were
beneath men's notice and took that too seriously. At least Blaize wasn't a
sexist idiot because that got old real fast.
"What are you talking about!?" Pansy asked while the leader of the not-
quite-followers, the sixteen year old girl with long straight blonde hair,
Daphne Greengrass peered out of the window with her year younger and
equally blonde sister, Astoria.
"Wow – that boy is hot!" Daphne commented while her sister was
nodding in agreement.
"Let me see!" demanded their friend, Tracey Davis. She had short ruffled
dark brown hair and while the two blondes had cool silver eyes, hers
were a deep blue, and everyone on the train were wearing school
uniforms and robes, theirs were all green and black as they were
Slytherins. "Wow, he is cute!" she readily agreed as she squeezed in to
look outside with her friends.
Pansy growled. "Nobody's better than Draco, but we should attack Potter
while everyone is distracted."
"Idiot...!" Draco said, glaring again. "That guy killed Greyback!"
"Don't be stupid Draco!" she retorted as if he was joking.
"I was there!" he said quickly, "watch this, Harry King is going to end this
now, look at the Death Eater's, they're bloody terrified of him!"
The other's looked with Blaize joining them and they could see the
remaining Death Eater's looked as if they were about to mess themselves.
They were stuck between two forces, the dark that would kill them for
running away, and the light that would kill them for staying.
"Looks like this is going to be fun...!" Astoria commented with a smirk,
"and I thought that rumour about Dumbledore kicking ass in Diagon
Alley was-."
"True!"
They were interrupted, and startled as they hadn't noticed that the
mudblood, umm, muggle-born girl, and friend of Rosette Potter's,
Hermione Granger had somehow snuck up on them watching out of the
window, wearing her Gryffindor uniform of red and black. She was
joined by a cute blonde girl with rusty blonde hair and dazed blue eyes
wearing her Ravenclaw uniform in blue and black.
"You mean-?" Tracey asked while Hermione nodded.
"Dumbledore has decided to change the game!" she agreed. "But I think
this will enlighten you further," she said and they all turned back to the
window watching as Harry King stared down the Death Eater's, and made
them cower before him.
Harry disappeared a moment later, blinking away in a rush of air. The
Death Eater's looked around franticly when two of them dropped out cold
crumpling to the ground.
"Oh my-," Daphne mumbled while squirming on the seat she was
kneeling on to watch the fight through the side window while the other
girls could just nod along in agreement.
The Death Eater's turned in a hurry as one to see the green-eyed teen
standing behind them nonchalant as he straightened his tie, mocking
them as he neatened his shirt cuffs and brushed down his jacket even
though nothing was out of place he even fake-touched up his hair.
"Do you give?" he asked coolly.
The remaining Death Eater's quivered, looking at each other before they
suddenly threw down their wands, surrendering as they quickly pulled
off their masks dropping them to the ground, the conjured 'disguises'
dissolved in black mist, and they threw their arms in the air in a hurry to
stave off any harm Harry could inflict on them.
Harry disappeared again only to reappear by the light facing the Death
Eater's as they span around to him in fear. He smirked as the Death
Eater's couldn't take their eyes off the man who could have easily beaten
them all unconscious even after surrender without no one caring to stop
him, or being powerful enough too.
"You know," Harry commented, glancing towards the light, "some of you
guys could go and arrest them," he suggested, which dropped the light
wizards and witches out of their dazed states.
Some aurors stared at him for a second before nodding as they shook
their heads clear of the fog as they saw for themselves that they were far
behind on the power scale in the world. However, they quickly headed
towards the Death Eater's while the shocking quiet lessened as people
began to talk finally.
"Now that is power!" Tracey said smugly while Pansy was staring with
her mouth hanging open, unable to comprehend that everything was
going to change, and that the Dark Lord wasn't the only powerful
sorcerer on the playing field anymore, and even the Great Light Wizard
Albus Dumbledore had stepped up to truly challenge the Dark Lord and
his Death Eater's.
"And he looks really good in muggle clothes!" Daphne added with a
dreamy and very out of character sigh, but she knew she was attracted to
power, but he was power, looks, and style.
"Really good...!" Astoria agreed as she took after her sister, but she was a
more open character so no one stared at her, freaked out seeing some
personality that might be a little boy crazy.
"Plus," Tracey said with a nod, smirking smugly. "Have to get laid
sometime and who better?" she asked while the other two nodded and
Hermione had to move a little away as they were creeping her out, and
even Luna was with them, nodding along in agreement.
Hermione had to feel a little sorry for Harry as she had already heard he
was going to teach, but then he did get in her panties within an hour of
knowing her so maybe he would be in heaven. Yes, she should feel sorry
for all of the boys he'll stand in the way of.
Harry grinned while Rose and Ginny hurried off to the train to fetch their
friend Hermione as she had arrived with Ginny's parents while June had
hoped up into Harry's arms to hug him, and he didn't mind carrying her
as much as she wanted if it made her feel safe and happy.
"So is the train ready to go?" Harry asked two Weasley's, Bill and Arthur
as they stood nearby while everyone else tried to find their children, or
sorted out the dead and injured.
"I'll go and ask someone," Bill said, shaking his head before hurrying
away.
"Thank you," Mr. Weasley said suddenly. Harry just stared at him in
confusion. "For saving them, and keeping them safe," he added to clarify.
"Ginny, Rose, and June... I know two are your sisters, but, thanks for
taking care of Ginny too."
"No problem, dude," he replied, laughing as he cuddled his little sister,
"anything for family, and I guess Ginny is like family since she is Rose's
best friend. Everyone should consider such close friends as family, and if
they did the world would be a nicer place."
He didn't have a chance to reply as Bill returned, interrupting. "The train
need's a few minor repairs," he said out of breath from running. "It will
be ready to leave in about four hours or so, but they don't know whether
they're going to leave today, tomorrow or have parents taking students to
Hogsmead by other means; they said just to leave and letters shall be sent
out, so I wouldn't think that the train would leave today, Saturday or
Sunday would be my best bet."
Harry nodded with a sigh. "Okay, well grab everyone of importance and
we'll get out of here… hmm, I know I'll buy you all lunch in London, I'm
starving."
If to prove it Harry's stomach grumbled as Mrs. Weasley turned up
dragging Hermione, Rose, and Ginny with her at a quick pace.
"Luna couldn't come with us!" Rose said, pouting.
"Mum said she should go home!" Ginny said pout glaring at her mother.
Mrs. Weasley rolled her eyes. "After everything that's happened she
should spend a little time with her father," she said. "He already lost a
wife, poor man may not be all there, but he cares about his daughter."
"Hi Harry!" Hermione said with a small grin.
"Hey," he greeted and ignored some ginger boys cold hateful glare as he
greeted the girl. He did take note that Hermione could do better and the
right person popped into his head in seconds; he would just have to get
her to drop the ginger boy first.
"I should warn you!" she said, glaring at her soon to be ex-boyfriend if
several schemers had anything to say about it before smiling back at
Harry. "There are these three Slytherin girls who watched you fight, and
now they think they can each have you, so watch out!"
"Cute?" he asked, perking up.
"Umm, yeah," she agreed, shrugging.
"Harry!" Rose said with an eye roll.
"Well, umm," he stuttered, chuckling as he got strange looks while Rose
and Ginny laughed, and Hermione rolled her eyes and tried to pretend
the ginger boy wasn't being annoyingly clingy and rude to every boy who
looked at her, even though she had cheated on him, and did plan on
breaking up with him to find someone who was more in her league,
especially in brain power as Ginny seemed to want Harry.
"Okay, come on guys," he added after a few moments, disappointed he
didn't get to meet them all now, Luna included as he liked meeting cute
girls. "We're going to get something to eat before returning to that
headquarters place Dumbledore mentioned," he said while Mrs. Weasley
nodded her head readily and started ushering the three girls and
everyone else towards the exit from the platform where some of
Dumbledore's Order stood waiting.
Rose smiled as she looked to her big brother, ignoring their father as he
did them, and took Harry's arm while he held June, and winked at
Hermione, amused while she had to deal with her ginger haired
boyfriend some more, Ginny's slightly older brother, Ronald.
It was good for Ginny as she could hold Harry's spare hand without
Ronald jumping and being a whiny bitch and getting his ass kicked. That
boy was seriously annoying, and if Hermione didn't dump him and quick
she would have to kick him in the balls until he got the message that
Hermione was too good for him.
She grimaced as she looked around the bloody platform wanting to heave
a little as the smell of death or battle slowly grew. There weren't many
deaths, but some Death Eater's had gotten on the wrong side of some
aurors or Order members, and others had been hurt along with some
civilians as medics turned up to help the injured.
It must have been a nightmare of a fight before Harry came and put a
stop to it. He just turned up, saved her, Ginny and June from a huge
barrage of spells, knocked a couple of Death Eater's out and the rest
surrendered. It was unbelievable she thought as her eyes scanned the
medi-witches, medi-wizards, and healers searching for surviving Death
Eater's and dealing with injured parents, aurors, or Order members.
Her brother alone could do what forty; maybe fifty wizards could not,
and made the Death Eater's throw down their wands choosing jail over
even trying to fight him alone, and there was nine of them, and she had
counted a few times to make sure.
Rose stretched a little without letting go of her brother before she had to
shield her eyes from the bright sun as they exited the train station onto
the bright muggle street. She was startled as Harry had grinned and
managed to slip a pair of muggle sunglasses over her eyes, his eyes,
Ginny's eyes, and even June's.
She smiled, and didn't have a clue why he had so many pairs of
sunglasses and was sure that wasn't close to the full selection he owned,
hidden away in his pocket dimension. She held back her laugh as she
straightened the glasses, and wondered where they were going to get
dinner, as Harry seemed to have a destination in mind as he led the way.
She looked around at the motley group to see who was coming with them
for dinner. Bill Weasley was walking with his dad and mum. Ronald had
unfortunately followed, bugging poor Hermione as usual. His eyes were
scanning the street jealously, and especially glaring at Harry while
Hermione tried to look apologetic for him even though he was the D-bag,
not her.
Sirius Black was with them, joking around, pleased to get to talk with his
godson after so long. He was walking mainly with Remus Lupin, his best
friend, and Tonks, she was hot, and Sirius's cousin. Then there was her
sister, June, her brother, Harry, and of course her closest friend (because
they had most in common), Ginny.
She frowned when she realised her dad had not even had the guts to
come with them. Her father must have been a bigger weenie than she
thought. He hadn't hugged her or June when he realised they were safe.
He had just stared at Harry, and she realised; he was afraid to get on his
wrong side so stayed away because he didn't want his ass kicked for the
way he treated June, seeing the way Harry held her, and how happy she
was to have her big brother.
"Don't worry kiddo," Sirius piped in suddenly. He made her jump while
Harry and June laughed. "James is just a big baby!" he said with a
sheepish shrug. "I've known him for a long time and he could be so thick
headed if a tree fell on him he wouldn't have noticed. Maybe he'll come
around eventually and beg for forgiveness, and at least try to earn your
trust."
Rose nodded doubtful, but Harry smiled at her and made her feel better
as she knew he would always take care of her and June from then on.
However, she still wished her mother were with them. She would know
how to make her feel better, or how to fix their family. She would have
already started trying to have her son back.
"Cool, here we are!" Harry knocked her out of her thoughts as he gestured
the large pizza restaurant, and she grinned. She hadn't had pizza in a
while, and she could smell the delicious food from outside.

Disclaiming You!?
King of Bandit
Chapter 11
Foretold
Harry and his group sat around a large table in the pizza restaurant
eating quietly as no one really knew what to say to each other after
everything that had happened recently. Harry was still a little exhausted
after everything and wanted to kill the bastard that had obviously jinxed
him with bad luck. If there was no one, then shooting something, or a
Death eater would be cool enough stress relief, or Ginny, she could
relieve his stress anytime.
However, that did not bother him nearly as much as the quiet that had
descended upon the group, as it was both uncomfortable and deathening.
He was just thankful everyone seemed to be enjoying their meal and not
complaining about anything that couldn't be helped.
Shaking his head he reminded himself that he at least managed to enjoy
some time with Ginny in-between fights before he looked around the
table. He decided enough was enough, and broke the awkward quiet with
what he hoped they would find amusing even though he was sure it
wasn't anything but a boring observation.
"Is it just for me or do the Death Munchers always attack that
frequently?" he asked with a smirk as most of them jumped at the sudden
sound of his voice.
"It depends," shrugged Bill Weasley. "Sometimes they can be quiet for
weeks or even months at a time, and others they might attack three days
in a row, or more, and multiple locations on the same day," he answered
seriously causing Harry to groan internally.
"Yeah, you just got unlucky," agreed Remus Lupin sadly. "You just turned
up on one of their more adventurous 'outings'."
"Oh, well," he answered rubbing the back of his neck nervously. "So does
anyone know why nobodies managed to kill Voldemort yet?" he asked,
ignoring the flinches that most had when he said the name, which was
creepier than Voldemort.
"No one's powerful enough," answered Arthur Weasley. "Dumbledore's the
only person You-Know-Who has ever feared but even Dumbledore can't
finish him. Though, I suppose Dumbledore has promised to try harder
now, and fighting like he did in Diagon Alley we might stand a better
chance."
Harry sighed as the conversation abruptly ended with mostly everyone
else nodding in agreement to Arthur's words. He realised these people
were just depressed and needed some more hope in their lives, or
someone to lighten the mood, or kick them.
Harry smiled as Rose was sat the other side of him next to June and she
was biting her lips to stop laughing while Ginny sat the other side of him
snickering too as he wasn't getting much conversation and they found it
amusing for some reason. He liked to see them enjoying themselves after
everything they had been through, and suspected that Sahara had made
Rose feel better when they got to her house.
He shrugged and rolled his eyes at the pair of troublemakers. "So why
hasn't Dumbledore tried to kill Voldemort. He's pretty bad-arse powerful
when he wants to be! And I'm certain that's not even his full range of
arse-kicking."
"Because of the prophecies," Sirius readily piped in as he hated the quiet
as much as Harry did when they could all be chatting and laughing,
enjoying a good laugh together without the previous calamities of battle.
Harry looked at them in suspicious surprise. "Really?" he asked and they
all nodded in agreement. "Okay, I'll bite… what they say?" he asked
having his curiosity piqued.
"The first one, well, only a few people know and Dumbledore doesn't
want it spread around," Sirius spoke before anyone else got the chance.
"So we can't tell you unless he says its okay. But the second one was
foretold in front of hundreds of people. It was even in the papers. These
idiots want Voldemort gone, but they publish stuff like this. They might
as well help him."
Harry snorted in amusement and rolled his eyes. "Well they are the press!
I would expect nothing less from the parasites! So what's the second
prophesy say?"
"The one… vanquished the Dark Enemy, will have to do so again…" began
Hermione in a gentle tone as she recited in full. "This time with hope, the
dark one shall stay forever gone… with the power the dark knows not, the
dark could fall. However, it is only likely if the one with the Mark of Lightning
becomes one with the Aurora of the Phantom…" she finished with a soft sigh
of frustration.
Harry frowned in thought as everyone stared expectantly at him before
he finally spoke to himself, "so I have to screw my own sis…" he began,
but stopped as he saw all of their eyes widen impossibly before shaking
his head clear and giving a nervous chuckle. "Err… I have no clue what
that means. Do you guys have any idea?"
"W-what...? What do you mean screw me?" Rose suddenly demanded;
glare pouting over the table at him. "That's what you were going to say,
right?" she continued glaring, even though her insides squirmed at the
thought and weren't as against the idea as she wished they were. Her
words made everyone but Harry go bright red in the checks, and a few of
the girls had to picture it for later playful-mocking.
"Oh yeah," he laughed, rubbing the back of his neck. "Sorry. I have a bit
of a dirty mind sometimes; it's a teenage boy thing I think, so I was
taking it too literally, my bad."
She nervously chuckled, bright red in the cheeks for thinking naughty
things too while the others watched in fascination, (her close friends),
anger and jealousy, (Ron), disgust, (Mrs Weasley), and everyone else in
embarrassment.
"So you think you're this phantom, huh?" asked Remus to alter the
subject from dangerous grounds. He didn't want Ron or Molly going off
on an angry rant right now. Sometimes he wondered who the real kids
were.
Harry shrugged. "I don't know. I suppose I could be, but other than doing
it," he began, holding back from snickering at everyone's embarrassment.
"The only other way would be a fusion technique of some kind."
"You-you mean to literally become one?" asked Rose nervously, and
hoping that the end result of something like that would keep her-them
female, as being a boy sounded weird. Harry nodded. "As in one person?"
she asked to clarify the matter. Harry again nodded. "Okay, just so I
completely understand you mean a bit of magic or something that could
in effect fuse, say me and Hermione together to create someone
completely new and different?"
Harry laughed a little as he imagined the effect that might have had, but
nodded as he watched all eyes on him. "Yep, we could call you Romione."
"That's just stupid!" Ron suddenly put in angrily. "And why would she be
called that anyway?"
"Because it's a cross between Rose and Hermione, stupid...!" Bill piped in
rolling his eyes. "And the idea of fusing two people together holds merit
and has been studied. It has been theorised that two equal wizards
combining their power into one form could more than triple their overall
strength and magic."
"But that doesn't make sense," Sirius put in his two knutts. "Shouldn't it
only double their strength?"
Harry laughed, shaking his head. "Actually Bill is correct. The effect is
called fusion amplification. Because you take two masses of power, and
energy equalling each other to create a completely new power, one
greater than the other two; you're not creating two people in one body
but a completely new entirety, therefore, for reasons I'm afraid I'm not
smart enough to comprehend you create an amplified body. In essence
you kill or destroy two people to give birth to a third even greater than
both of them combined, with all of their knowledge and experiences."
"B-but it would be wrong to even try such a horrid thing just for power!"
Molly put in hoping to put a stop to such talk.
"Maybe," Harry agreed with a shrug. "I don't know whether it's possible
anyway. And I doubt very much whether Rose and I could fuse because if
you hadn't noticed I'm male and she's female."
"What difference would that make?" asked Remus in curiosity.
"A lot," said Bill. "If a potential fusion fails the opposite of its intent will
happen making the fused wizard and witch weaker than a kitten. They
have to be relatively even physically at least, but to attune their magic to
the same level."
"Also, if we could fuse, say she jumps up in strength and magic, " Harry
said with a thoughtful frown, "we would become female because of birth
and genetics, as all humans as far as I know are conceived female-."
"You're an idiot!" Ron retorted while Rose looked relieved at that and
didn't doubt her big brothers scientific knowledge. "I was never a girl!" he
spat out angrily, but at least he understood something, and wasn't
completely stupid. Though, he did misunderstand everything else about
what Harry said, but he at least understood that tiny bit.
"I wasn't aware of that, but then I'm not a mediwizards," Bill said,
chuckling. "That sort of knowledge is more common in the muggle world
because of planetary mass media."
"So Harry," June suddenly interrupted, blushing as she didn't want to
hear the weird talk as it was embarrassing, "what would happen if you
fused with, say…Arctic...?" she asked, changing the subject back. She
ignored the others staring curiously at her, most of whom didn't know
who Arctic was as they hadn't met him before.
Harry looked at his little sister and smiled; she had been so quiet up until
now. "I don't want to sound big headed or anything but we would
become near invincible."
A small intake of breath ran around the table at his proclamation before
the silence was broken by a waitress, "excuse me, could I get your table
anything more?" she said smiling at Harry as she wasn't long out of
school and fancied him, but then many other girls were looking over
occasionally too.
"Hmm… sure, you can refill all of our drinks, thank you," he agreed.
She smiled some more and hurriedly collected all of their glasses onto a
tray. "Is that all?" she asked just as a large brown barn owl flew in
through an open window and landed on the table. The waitress looked
down at the bird. It had a large letter tied to its leg as it waited proudly
for someone to remove its delivery.
"Erm… would the owl like a drink too?" the waitress asked uncertainly as
she had not been given instructions from her boss on the protocol for the
rear possibility she would have a bird letter deliverer at a customer's
table, believe it or not, it wasn't a common thing to happen, or she would
say, never happened but she wanted to be polite to the hottest boy in the
place.
Everyone looked up at her in surprise, most of them not having a clue
how to respond, but Harry threw her a large grin, and a wink that lit her
cheeks up. "No thank you, I'm sure he's well looked after at the Magi Post
Offices, and I'm sure he'll have more deliveries he won't want to miss out
on." He laughed as the owl ruffled his feathers in agreement and allowed
Harry to remove the letter.
The waitress smiled at Harry with her blush lightening before nodding.
"Well, okay if you're sure," she agreed as she watched the bird take flight
out of a window before she turned her attention back to Harry and his
baffled dinning partners. "Well I'll be back with your refills in a few
minutes," she said smiling as she quickly hurried off.
"What the hell are the Ministry playing at?" demanded Molly angrily as
she looked around at all of the muggles going about their business while
a few children were happily waving the owl off as they had watched in
astonishment, while Harry opened the letter. "That was a blatant
disregard for magical security."
"Yes, that was odd," agreed Arthur. "But what does the letter say?" he
asked as no one even sought any kind of explanation, so everything
seemed okay to him at least.
"Oh, not much, just that school will be starting tomorrow instead of
today," replied the young bandit.
"Well that's good and all, Harry," said Remus with a frown. "But did you
realise you told her where that owl came from and she didn't even
double-take, or ask you questions? In fact, it seemed like she didn't find
anything odd about that at all. She believed you and just carried on with
her job."
Harry shrugged while a few like Molly and Ron glared at him. "I could
juggle fire and mostly everyone would think it was cool, so what?" he
shrugged. "I once got into a fight with this guy... a friend of... well, a
friends brother. It was in the middle of a mall, and we used magic, but
the world carried on."
"Really?" asked Ginny in surprise and a little suspicious as it sounded like
this 'friend' was more than that and her brother didn't realised how
awesome Harry was. He just grinned and nodded as a small flame ignited
on each fingertip of his right hand. "And the muggles don't care that it's
magic?" she asked in amazement.
He shrugged. "Not really. The open minded people don't care, and don't
think it's odd or anything to concern themselves with as I'm not being a
threat, and the closed minded ones are affected too much by the mist so
they just don't notice, their minds just make up excuses that they buy and
over a bit of time they forget altogether. After all the human mind is such
a wondrous thing." Harry chuckled as the flames snuffed out on his
fingers one by one.
"I guess it really is, but what's the mist?" asked Arthur confused.
"What are you talking about?" Molly suddenly asked. "Mist?" she looked
confused. "Has that waitress taken our empty glasses already?"
"Erm, yes dear," Arthur answered even more confused.
"Hey, you're supposed to be a teacher right?" Ron suddenly demanded
glaring at Harry. "So when will the Ministry tell us when we can get to
school...?"
Everyone but Harry looked at the pair as if they had lost their minds.
"Cause and effect," he commented, shrugging. "It tends to happen more
outside of all of your magical barriers," he said, amused as he along with
the others stared at Molly and Ron, both mother and son looking
somewhat confused. "The mist isn't actually magical – well not in the
conventional way. It's kind of psychological in a way; a wave of changed
reality and perception that protects fools.
"We just call it that because it's like a mist over the conscious mind,
blocking out crap their beliefs can't, wont, or shouldn't understand, like a
huge magical security blanket over the world. It's why the open minded
don't care or think much of magic. The older you are the more likely you
are to be affected; if you're set in your ways, ignorant, arrogant, or
stupid.
"Though I'm sure it wouldn't have affected Ron like this in a safe learning
environment like Hogwarts where his beliefs are still open to change,
plus the wards would be a great help as they numb the mist. I bet none of
you remembered hearing anything about the destruction in New York
State? I don't have a clue what was going on myself, but it was huge and
not one mortal seems to have a clue anything happened apart from a
huge 'storm'. The Guild was investigating it, probably still is, but as far as
I know, they haven't found anything yet."
"The Guild...?" Ginny asked, but Sirius had spoken over her.
"Then Molly and Ron won't remember this conversation either?" asked
Sirius with a smirk as Harry nodded in agreement.
"Wow, now I know where Ron gets it from," Bill commented with a
frown, his mum and brother just staring at him in bafflement.
They had been found by another owl, telling them to return to the Order
HQ for a meeting in an hour, so they soon arrived at the Leaky Cauldron,
and floo'd to headquarters. It was a place call Grimmauld Place. They
exited into a large kitchen-dining room. They had arrived back for the
purpose of a meeting with Dumbledore and his Order of the Phoenix, as
Harry had seemed to have been recruited without his knowledge or
consent, but he didn't care; the more allies, the more power to protect his
sisters and friends.
"You should have seen it Hermione," Ginny was saying as she was still
telling her all about the fight in Diagon Alley, and then with the trolls
while looking to Harry with a dreamy grin, "he doesn't even have a wand,
he just, boom, boom, and boom; he was awesome."
"Really?" interrupted a gravelly voice from the door. An old man with a
wooden leg and a huge spinning eye, with loads of scars over his face
stood, "so boy, how'd you do it with no wand?"
He shrugged, "wizards are weaklings?" he suggested. "They all had glass
jaws? They're slow? I could go on?"
The man nodded when suddenly his wand was in his hand, and pointed
at Harry, "a likely story; you're a Death Eater aren't ya? This is some kind
of elaborate ruse, isn't it?!"
Harry raised an eyebrow, "put your stick away old man," he replied
calmly as his blade shot out of his sleeve.
Moody grinned evilly, "what's that?" he demanded. Suddenly in less than
two seconds, Harry was swiftly and silently on the table and then in front
of Moody, blade to the old man's throat, hand around his wrist pushing
the wands' point away from anyone in the room.
Harry smirked, "what do you think Alistor Moody; you're supposed to be
the best? The famous Auror...?"
Moody gulped; "what are you? No human can move that fast."
"Obviously you're mistaken," he retorted as his blade retracted, and he
released the older man, "I don't appreciate having a wand pointed at me."
"He's so cool," said Hermione, Ginny, Rose, and June, dreamily staring at
him.
"Hey!" said Ron frowning angrily.
The girls blushed when they realised what they said, "what Ron?" asked
Hermione, gulping.
"Stop drooling over the weirdo; he's not even human," he retorted glaring
at Harry.
"Yes I am," replied Harry, coolly.
"Moody said you're not," he retorted.
Harry rolled his eyes, "so if I'm not human, what am I?"
"A vampire maybe...?" Moody suggested.
Harry chuckled, "I was out during daylight, did it not ever occur to you
that you're just weak and slow?" he asked taking a seat next to Hermione,
Ginny immediately sitting the other side of him while the gruff man
chuckled and placed his wand away. The old ex-auror only wanted to see
some of what the man to be legend had that he had heard about, first
hand, and he was more than impressed.
Harry grinned as June sat opposite him, as the conversation turned to
brooms. "What broom do you have?" he asked her, and she looked down
sadly.
"I don't have one," June admitted sadly. "Dad said I don't deserve a broom
as I'm no good!"
Harry frowned while he looked to Rose.
"I didn't know you wanted a broom, June! You should have said and I
could have made him get you one," Rose said guiltily.
"I don't want to be a bother," she replied timidly.
"You will never be a bother," Harry said with a grin while she looked at
him in happiness. "How about after the Order meeting I take you back to
Diagon Alley and order you any broom you like?" Harry suggested with a
grin.
"Really?" she asked in awe and surprise, "but that's got to be too
expensive." However, Harry only shrugged.
"How could you afford that…?" Sirius asked in surprise, "where'd you get
all of that money?"
"I work," he shrugged, "I'm err. I'm a bodyguard," he lied almost
smoothly, but smooth enough for them to buy it, especially with his
talents.
"Don't tell Dumbledore that or he'll have you following Rose around
twenty four seven," said Sirius amusedly.
"Too, late," he replied pointing the old man grinning by the fireplace as
he stepped out of the emerald green flames.
"A bodyguard...?" Dumbledore muttered thoughtfully to himself, "I hope
we're not keeping you from protecting someone."
"Na, I came to collect something that was stolen about five years ago by a
Lucius Malfoy, everyone else sent disappeared," he said as he knew
Malfoy was a Death Eater so thought they wouldn't care if he was going
to steel something already stolen, "I'll collect it some other time."
"Malfoy," said Sirius, surprised, "he's a Death Eater," he said, stating the
obvious.
"Oh, cool, then I'll bring him in too," he said faking ignorance.
Dumbledore chuckled, the new member looked completely sure he would
succeed and he wouldn't and couldn't doubt him thus far. "What is it he's
got that people would be sent to retrieve it? He obviously doesn't realise
what he has?" the old man asked curiously.
"Sorry, can't tell you now, though I will when I have it, we can even use
it, it's the only way for it to be destroyed, as per my clients' wishes."
Dumbledore nodded, interestedly as several Order members floo'd in
from the ministry, sitting down waiting for the meeting to begin. Harry
tried to ignore a few of the women staring at him while more members
showed up, including one greasy haired prat who sneered at everybody
for no reason, and then Mrs. Weasley threw the kids out, though Ron
moaned saying something about being older than Harry, but age never
meant wisdom.
"Well, now that everybody is here," Dumbledore began.
"What about Potter!" the grease ball demanded snidely.
"Who cares, but I've heard about you, Severus Snape!" Harry interrupted
coldly. "I hear that you've been a spiteful bastard, not only the students at
school, but also my sisters. This will stop, especially when concerning my
little June, or I'll make you wish for death!"
He already hated this guy and wanted to smash his teeth down his throat,
which was not really like him. However the greasy prat screamed 'hate
me' without him ever having to open his snarky mouth. Harry watched as
he knew the snark was about to spew forth like the morning after an
incredible night out.
The man sneered. "Who are you, and how dare you speak to a Professor
of Hogwarts like that."
"My names Harry King and I'm the new defence teacher, so to answer
your question. I am Professor Harry King," he replied smugly. Sirius
really liked Harry; he was the coolest kid he had ever met; he was
fearless, and had the power to back up his words.
"Severus," warned Dumbledore, "please do not antagonize new members
of the Order, or I will personally throw you around because I've had
enough of the Death Eaters, so I will not tolerate any foolishness from
you either!"
"He's a teacher, and member of the Order?!" he retorted in shock,
believing that Dumbledore's threat was empty, "he looks barely old
enough to be out of school."
"Severus. If you were unaware, this is the young man who has been
decimating, the Death Eaters," the old man replied, and some members
gasped as they saw him for the first time, and Snape at least gulped.
"Voldemort...-." He paused while rolling his eyes as Harry was the only
one who didn't show a reaction to the mane, more than anything was
silently laughing at the others, and he couldn't blame him.
He lost his track of thought, but continued on relentlessly. "... well, he
seems to be in a hissy that, Professor King has been killing large portions
of his Death Eaters. Though I say large, it is believed that the Death
Eaters are growing vastly in numbers."
He smiled all around as they saw that he respected the lads power, and
he did; the boy had woke him up; the world had changed. The world no
longer worked as black and white, and he was getting with that
programme, and his Order would have too as well, so that they would
not die to the racists and radical murderers and terrorists
"Well, anyway," he continued further, "as I was about to say, this is
Hogwart's newest teacher. He's going to be teaching self defence rather
than standard Defence against the Dark Arts. Professor King is quite
gifted, in many areas I have seen. He is a trained bodyguard who was
over here on a trip, and has no prior engagements at the moment that
will keep him. Therefore, he will be a valuable asset in keeping the
students safe."
"You can't be serious Albus," interrupted Snape again. "What about OWLs
and NEWTs?"
"Yes I have thought of that, and after a quick review of Fred Weasley's
memory of the event in Diagon before I arrived, as well as Hagrid's, I
believe what he has to offer the students is more effective than simple
spells and curses," Dumbledore said. "If you are still not convinced," he
walked over to a chair near the fire and retrieved a large stone bowl,
"take a look." Harry chucked when he watched everyone dive into the
memory bowl, even those who saw what he could do first hand. They
were gone for a few minutes before returning with shocked disbelieving
expressions on their faces.
"A lot of that stuff I missed. It seems impossible," said McGonagall, ashen
faced; "he moved so fast a couple of times I thought he apparated, but
neither Fred nor Hagrid's eyes could keep up with him."
The meeting continued for awhile longer and Harry was smirking at
Snape, and creped him out. It was very amusing to mess with the
simpleton of a man.
It didn't take long for the Order to leave and Harry's new friends to be let
in so he could tell them about the boring meeting no matter how much
Molly Weasley said he wasn't allowed and they weren't allowed to know.
It was nothing important anyway, and with four cute girls all over him,
Harry couldn't say no, and Dumbledore had stayed a little while longer to
finish his tea and didn't give two shakes before he left in good spirits.
"Anyway," Harry said suddenly as he thought of something he had nearly
forgotten about. It wasn't important but as Ginny was sitting on his lap,
and Ronald was too busy being a clingy loser on poor Hermione it sprung
to mind.
"This whole Death Eater mess is probably a blessing in disguise," he said,
smirking. "I did have someplace to be tonight. It wasn't too important,
but now I can take a date since school doesn't start until tomorrow. Well
only if you would like, Ginny?" he asked the girl, startling her, she sat up
straight on his lap with wide eyes.
"Y-you want to take me out on-on a date?" she asked, brightening.
"Of course… I've been invited to a gem unveiling in London tonight, and
I'll be honoured if you'll accompany me," he agreed eagerly.
She allowed a huge blush to streak her checks as she nodded her head
enthusiastically and tried not to think of the naughty things two lovers
would do after a wonderful date like she could see he would give her. He
was kind and fun, smart, and she was sure somewhere, somehow he was
always up to 'no' good, but the good kind of 'no' good.
"I-I would love too," she agreed before quickly facing her mother. "C-can I
mum, please?" she asked hopefully.
Molly looked to her daughter. She hadn't commented on her sitting on
her new friends lap, as she remembered what it was like to be young. She
thought about it. Harry was powerful, strong, and talented with a
respectable job. He was her daughters' saviour, and she saw the way her
daughter looked at him.
She thought about it for a moment; her eyes flickering to Ron. She
certainly couldn't deny that Harry was a much better catch, and even she
would agree that Hermione was way out of his league and knew that
wouldn't last. She could at least agree that her daughter found a great
catch who knew how to treat people, young ladies especially.
"Well okay dear," she said before nodding, she couldn't deny her some
fun. "I suppose that will be okay, as long as you're both back by eleven,
as you both have to catch the train to school tomorrow."
"Cool," Harry said turning to Rose with a smirk on his lips; she gulped,
"Rosie. It is now your mission to go with Ginny, her mum, and Hermione
into London and get Ginny ready for our date. Money is no object,
especially since you're buying." He turned to Hermione and quickly cut
off Molly and Ginny before they protested.
Rose didn't care since it was not her money but rather family money that
Harry was intituled to anyway. In addition, she had wanted to buy Ginny
some lovely dresses for years but her friend could be so stubborn so now
was her chance to sneak in other garments; it was hard not to laugh in
glee.
"Hermione… it's your job to make sure no expense is spared and that she
has all necessary accessories, since you're from the mortal world know it
better. After all this is a red carpet event, so we both have to look the
part."
Hermione nodded readily. "I'm on it. She'll be the talk of the night, right
Rose?" she said and asked with a wide grin as she hadn't the chance to
take either girl shopping in the muggle world before. She was also
surprised as witches and wizards hadn't referred to muggles as mortals in
a few centuries, (because they tended to live a lot longer). It made her
wonder about where he learnt his magic and how to fight, and about
these friends, Ginny, June, and Rose were talking about.
Rose blinked several times in surprise before looking at her friends,
startled. "Oh… of course," she replied as a bright smile lit up her face.
Operation make Harry proud of her was about to begin. Then maybe she
could follow through eventually with Harry forgiving her and loving her,
well, more than he does because he had to still feel a little bitter.
"Come on Gin, Hermione, Mrs Weasley. When it comes to needlessly
wasting money on super awesome, and might I add sexy clothes, I'm your
girl."

12. Time
King of Bandit
Chapter 12
Time
Juniper Potter could barely believe how lucky she was. She had the
coolest big brother in the world. She had never thought that she would
ever meet him, but here he was walking with her and Sirius down Diagon
Alley. He had said he would get her any awesome racing broom her heart
desired as a present for being such a great little sister. It was like a dream
come true. Rose only had a Nimbus 2004, and she could choose that, or
an even better broom, maybe a Flame Shot, or the StrikerS, which would
be way cool.
She smiled up at Harry as he was talking to Sirius about something. She
paid a little attention and realised that Sirius was giving Harry the dirty
on Professor Snape. She hated Snape too, and hoped her big brother
didn't let the greasy git get under his skin. She had to hold back a smile
as she remembered Harry was so awesome that he would kick Snape's
arse.
"I don't like Professor Snape either!" she suddenly spoke, gaining her big
brothers curiosity. She found herself once again blushing brightly as he
gave her a reassuring smile. "He's always mean to me in class no matter
how well I do."
Harry frowned and actually looked annoyed before looking at his little
sister seriously. "Well you don't need to worry about him bullying you
ever again Junes," he spoke firmly. "If he continues treating you badly
you should come straight to me and I'll sort it out for you." He smiled
when he spoke those last few words and June could see a sinister edge to
it… the sort she supposed a loving big brother should have while
protecting his little sister from a bully.
June nodded her head in understanding and gave him her best smile,
which in return got her a smile from him as he carefully stroked her hair
as they continued on their way. Ginny sure was lucky June realised as
she watched her brother pull out his phone with a look of thought before
nodding and calling someone.
June wondered what kind of dress Ginny would get. June was certain
Ginny would look stunning no matter what since she was so beautiful.
June felt a little jealous, but she would have plenty of time to spend with
her big brother too so she wouldn't be selfish as she loved Ginny as she
was really nice and fun, so knew her big brother would love her too,
especially after she thinks they might have done 'naughty' things at
Sahara's house.
Well Sahara was nice too, and thinking about 'naughty', she wondered
about her big sister and Sahara as they showered together. She shrugged
that off as she felt she was too young to have to wonder whether her
sister liked girls or boys. She would have to see who she liked better
when she was older too, especially with her bestest friend Gabby coming
on to her all the time, and pretending she didn't notice the cute French
girls interest was getting harder, especially during sleepovers.
She internally sighed, as it was hard playing stupid because she didn't
want to hurt her friends' feelings, as she would always love Gabby no
matter what. She should probably stop and let her thoughts wonder back
to the present, and her present thoughts before she made herself feel bad
as Gabby was anything but subtle, and she relished in the blondes
affection too much.
Back to her big brother, Harry. He was so cool and strong June bet with
him around You-Know-Who wouldn't stand a chance. Maybe Harry
would fight along with Rose and they would win together, and become
awesome legends. Then her family would be more whole than she could
ever remember, even with their mum gone and their dad being such an
ass.
At least Rose and Harry loved her.
"Hey who are you on the phone with?" June was unexpectedly pulled
from her thoughts as Sirius asked the question.
Harry had looked startled for a moment as June too waited to find out
but he suddenly put up his hand to gesture for quiet as he spoke on the
phone. "Yes… black stretched… all the luxury… the works… yes thank
you. Right, charge it to Sirius Orion Black via Gringotts Bank. Uh-ha,
thank you, and you have a nice day too." He smiled as he hung up and
put his phone away in his pocket.
"What are you charging to my account?" Sirius asked Harry looking
nervous and worried.
"Huh?" he replied surprised for a moment before a grin split his face. "Oh
that," he chuckled rolling his eyes. "Nothing much… just a limo for Ginny
and I tonight. It's a big event so we have to turn up in something
impressive."
Sirius gulped and nodded slowly while June held back her snicker. "Uh…
umm… how much is that going to cost me?" he asked nervously.
Harry just rolled his eyes. "I didn't ask," he replied and June couldn't help
herself as she giggled. Sirius glared half-heartedly at her, though it had
no effect because she knew how soft he really was, and Harry smiled in
amusement. "Anyway what does it matter? You're freaking loaded. You
won't even notice so stop being a twit."
Sirius now shook his head looking a little amused while June giggled
some more. She knew it was childish but she couldn't help herself. She so
happy. She didn't think she could remember being so happy. She finally
had her big brother and he would take care of her with her big sister. She
just hoped that they would always get along, though June was sure they
would. She could feel it in her heart. They were twins after all.
"You know Sirius I think you should get out more," Harry commented
offhandedly smirking at him. "And take Remus with you. I swear that guy
looks near deaths door. Maybe you could take him out clubbing or
something. You know get smashed and meet some babes… or maybe
wake up in the middle of nowhere starker's without a clue how you got
there after doing something incredibly stupid… or in a cell somewhere,"
he said laughingly.
June couldn't help but blush brightly and giggled while Harry smirked
and Sirius rolled his eyes though he laughed too. "So has that ever
happened to you before?" he retorted smirking. June looked at them
sharply wondering whether they forgot she was even there. She was only
twelve, she had her own problems with her future 'love-life', she was not
sure she should be hearing this sort of thing.
Harry laughed and shrugged. "Well something similar did happen to me,"
he agreed and June tried her hardest to not listen but she couldn't help
herself… she was a very curious person. "It was just over a month ago. I
was in China with some locals in a bar playing some card game. Well
anyway, I woke up the next day in a four star hotel in Sydney Australia.
Though that wasn't the funny and disturbing part. It was waking up in
bed with a girl from Tokyo, another from Kyoto, one from Rome, two
from Mexico City, three from Texas, another from Cardiff and one from
Dublin, two from Cairo in Egypt, and the last from Montréal…"
He chucked, amused at the memory while Sirius and June stared at him
in open mouthed awe and shock wondering how he managed to travel to
all of those places and find girls willing to share him.
"It was quite funny looking back on it. They were all as confused as me. I
swear that's the last time I ever drink that much. I have no clue how I got
all of them but we did have some fun that day since we couldn't
remember the night before, and they were all so freaking hot. A few of
the girls were quite forceful too. If not for them I'm sure the other girls
would have gotten me to take them home straightaway, but apparently
I'm too cute to resist."
He laughed with Sirius while June blushed fiercely and tried to cover her
ears but it was too late, she had heard everything now, but it was her
own fault. She was not stupid, she knew what her big brother was talking
about. She could tell Harry was not just joking either. He was really
hansom and lots of girls would be happy to have him. He just hoped
Harry would settle down now and be with Ginny. Yes… that would be
best because then when they were older and got married Ginny would be
her sister too, and she would be so happy. It would be great.
"It was a nightmare getting them all home," Harry finished laughingly
with a roll of his eyes looking amused. "None of them had passports so I
couldn't just buy them plane tickets, plus three of them were witches so
they wouldn't have had one anyway. It took me several hours to take
them home and return to China. It might have been a little sooner but I
dropped off the Japanese girls last as it was in my direction. I swear
they're a couple of nymphos, and wouldn't let me go until I had given
them another ride…"
"Augh!" June suddenly moaned shaking her head, and cursing any
curiosity she might have had about her brothers amusing misadventures.
She pouted as her brother stared at her in surprise. Her hands were
holding her ears. "Please stop," she groaned out, blushing, and pleading.
She had had enough, and she didn't want to hear anymore as it was
embarrassing. "You're my big brother I don't need to hear this. You're
damaging my sensitive little ears."
He chuckled nervously while Sirius just laughed. "Umm… sorry June," he
said with a small smile, and she puffed up her cheeks, as he didn't sound
very apologetic. "You were being so quiet I didn't think," he said
'apologetically' as he led the way into the quidditch supply store. The bell
above the door tinkled as they entered and she got to look around the
store.
"Oh, that's ok," she said absentmindedly as she looked around at all of the
awesome brooms and other assorted quidditch stuff. Well honestly, she
was not going to be mean about her big brother talking about that kind
of stuff in front of her. She was twelve, not ten.
"May I help you, Sirs, Miss?" asked a cheesy sales guy suddenly making
June and Sirius jump.
June looked up at the guy and winced at the toothy grin on his face. He
was wearing a neat grey suit robe, and had this silly little caterpillar like
moustache thing on his top lip. His very demeanour screams sleezeball.
He was the very definition of cliché sales guy. Somebody should really
tell him so to save him a lot of embarrassment, and customers a lot of
bother. June could smell his aftershave strongly in the air, and it was
lingering all over the place.
June thought she might have felt more comfortable watching her big
brother beating up some more Death Eaters. Thinking of that she
wondered whether Harry was going to be teaching his classes some of
that super awesome magic like he used on the Death Eaters. She hoped
so. It would be so cool being able to use magic without her wand.
"Indeed!" Harry chimed with a smirk answering the cheesy sales guy. "I'm
here to purchase my little sister here," he began placing his right hand
affectionately on her left shoulder giving it a small squeeze. June, of
course foolishly blushed. She could be so lame. "A StrikerS racing
broom."
"The new StrikerS?" he asked in surprise, his eyes widening. "Wow, a guy
who actually knows quality when it comes to brooms. Kids these days
want the Firebolt, Firawind or a Nimbus, like the new two thousand and
four," he said with a shake of his head as if amused. "Like the Americans
or British could honestly hope to outdo the Japanese's StrikerS."
"I-I wouldn't want one of them," June suddenly spoke bravely. "H-Harry
asked whether I wanted one, but I want to be different. Anyway, any
sane person knows the StrikerS is the best broom on the market." She
couldn't believe she managed to say all of that. She felt faint and
breathless. She hoped she didn't pass out. That would be so embarrassing,
and she didn't want to worry her big brother over something so silly.
The cheesy sales guy laughed. "I quite agree," he nodded approvingly, but
he would no matter what she said because he would want a sale. "It's a
little cheaper than the Firebolt and Firawind too, plus comes in several
different colours or themes," he laughed. "So Miss, what one did you
want?"
June was startled. She had forgotten to decide what theme she wanted.
She knew there were many different colours and patterns so she had a
quick think before something came to her attention. "Err, what colours do
you have here?" she asked quickly, thinking it would be much cooler if
she could get her new broom now.
He smiled. "Well we have all of the standard colours plus several of the
patterned brooms, so you tell me which one you want and I'll tell you
whether we've got it in stock or whether we'll have to order it for you,
ok?"
June nodded to that while Harry laughed and smiled. "How about one
with a dragon, or phoenix huh?" he suggested to her reasonably.
However, June shook her head in thought. "Na… everybody wants one
like that," she told him and he nodded in agreement.
"Well you can always get a custom made design for a little extra if you
would like?" the sales guy suggested. "They are only a little more
expensive, but worth it if you're going for a rare look."
June shook her head at this as she didn't want to wait that long. She
would have to wait even longer than for a standard patterned broom.
"Oh, oh, I know!" she suddenly shouted out in excitement bobbing up and
down. However, she froze in embarrassment when her big brother, Sirius
and the sales guy stared at her in surprise before they laughed.
"Well out with it then squirt!" Sirius laughed out with a grin. "Don't leave
us guessing or this guy won't know which one to get you."
"I-I want the Galaxy one!" she quickly said blushing. She looked up at the
cheesy sales guy with hope that they had it in, as she was sure most
wizards and witches weren't interested in space, and she had heard
because of that the StrikerS Galaxy was quite rare, especially in the UK.
However, the sales guy got her hopes up right away as he smiled widely.
"You're one lucky kid. We only have one of those… nobody else that
bought one even came close to wanting a look. Are you sure that's the
one you would like?" he asked her seriously.
She nodded her head eagerly and he laughed again as he hurried off to
fetch it. She guessed he wasn't as bad as she suspected.
"I hadn't even known they do different designs," Sirius suddenly said
surprising her, as she thought that would be a big appeal to lots of
people, but then she hadn't seen them advertised much. Maybe Nimbus
and Firebolt were trying to suppress their advertising or they would lose
lots of business. It was something she could see the governments doing as
they were both corrupt and easily paid off.
June rolled her eyes while Harry laughed at Sirius. "Of course they do.
Have you been under a rock or something?" she suggested mockingly.
"No," he replied trying to sound stern but failing. "I would have thought
Rose would have wanted one though being as she could have gotten a
unique one if she wanted."
June shrugged in thought. "I don't know. Maybe she only got the Nimbus
because people expected her to get the British one. I saw her eyeing the
Firawind hungrily before she bought the Nimbus and they both came out
around the same time and the Firawind has slightly better specs too.
Though not as good as the StrikerS but that came out after them both,"
she explained reasonably. "You know Rose can be silly and buy things
like that just because some people she doesn't even care about expects it
of her."
"Well we'll have to make sure she starts doing what she wants and not
what people expect from now on," Harry suddenly said smiling
thoughtfully. "I can't have my twin sister doing what a bunch of morons
think she should. She'll give me a bad name, and my rep is pretty strong
as it is. I want to keep it that way."
June looked up at him with her mouth almost hanging open before she
return his smile and nodded in agreement. "I know she'll take no notice of
them for you big brother. Then we'll be happy, and not have to worry so
much, okay?"
"Of course," he agreed truthfully. "Plus I'm here to protect you both now.
Neither Voldemort or his Death Eaters, nor any other evil jerk shall harm
either of you. And if they try… they'll have to destroy me first, and I'm
sure you'll agree that is not a task to take lightly."
She nodded in agreement to that but she noticed Sirius looked lost. She
guessed he didn't know what Harry was truly capable of. If he had seen
Harry fighting those trolls, June was certain he would have been nodding
along with her.
However, June was spared from answering her brothers promising words
as the sales guy returned with a charcoal black case made of plastic
unlike the case her sister's broom came in, which was wood. He slid it
onto the counter and June got a good look… on the case in beautiful
cloudy lettering in multiple colours.
- StrikerS Galaxy
The case alone left little June breathless. Therefore, she took a deep
steadying breath before she reached over and flipped the silvery catches
and had to take another deep breath to keep from fainting with
excitement. Her hands shook almost uncontrollably as she carefully lifted
the lid and swung it open on its silver hinges.
June held back from gasping in awe as she stared at it for the very first
time outside of a magazine. It fit within its dark silvery velvet mould. It
was beautiful… why none wanted one of these she may never know. Its
main colour matched that of the case, except for its neatly trimmed and
streamline tail as it was a mix of whites and black, and the foot rests the
same colour as the velvet.
However, running along its sleek and stylish body was gassy galaxies of
many different colours of reds, oranges, blues, yellows, whites, greens,
and others she had no name for. It was simply amazing that's for sure.
June couldn't take her eyes off it and she probably wouldn't have if
Harry's voice hadn't brought her back to reality.
"Well, it looks like she'll take it," he said laughingly.
June looked up at him in surprise blushing brightly as she realised she
was practically drooling. Sirius was mocking her a little as Harry paid
and the sales guy wrapped her present up so nobody in the street stared
too much, and they were about to leave when Harry paused and looked
back at the sales guy before back to Sirius and June.
He smiled as he pulled out some galleons and handed them to Sirius,
surprising them. "You two go on, and get some ice cream on me at that
place we passed earlier. I'll catch up in fifteen minutes or so. I just want
to talk to this guy about something then pop to the bank. I won't be long
okay?"
"Err, sure," Sirius said sounding confused but shrugged. "Come on June,"
he added seeing as she was about to ask to stay. She guessed that Sirius
was more perceptive than she had ever gave him credit.
June sighed but complied, giving her big brother a quick hug, which he
returned and hurried after Sirius. She supposed an ice cream would be
nice even if she was not with her big brother. He said he wouldn't be
long so she knew he would be back with them soon. She just wondered
what he was up too. June couldn't help but worry. She thought she might
take after her mother in that effect.

King of Bandit
Chapter 13
Journeys
"Wow, Harry I've never been in such a…" Ginny spoke quietly as the
large stretched limo pulled away from the curb taking them away at a
moderate pace. She wasn't sure what she should call the muggle vehicle
as it was much more than just a car.
Ginny hadn't even known they had cars like this. It was like a small
palace that you sat in and rode from place to place. The Wizarding world
kind of sucked in the luxury department, which was strange considering
the Magical Worlds potential.
Harry couldn't help but admire Ginny's childish curiosity; but more so in
her new dress. It was silver; flowing almost like water, and nicely
accentuated her otherwise small chest area making her tits look larger
and fuller, (he liked them either way but this made him have to think
other things), and held with spaghetti straps hanging to her feet with a
slit down each side showing off some of her amazing legs.
Ginny wore toe-less healed shoes; white, and platformed to give her
slightly more height. Ginny's shoes showed off her soft tasty feet, and
deep red painted toes with matching fingernails. She wore some lush red
lipstick with light glittery red to her eyes with her vibrant red hair done
up at the crown with ringlets hanging down the back with a few curls
drifting over her forehead.
"Large car," he replied for her in amusement as he wouldn't ever know
what it was like to walk into another 'world' and be so amazed; mainly
because he always expected the weird these days. But still there were
some people he had met who were good being surprising and having
some strange magical talents.
However, this was different. Ginny had been kept hidden within the
Wizarding World. Well, not hidden exactly. But ignorantly kept from the
Mortal World. Harry was certain that young mage from the Wizarding
World like Ginny shouldn't have been homeschooled before magic school,
but go to a Mortal school so they're not so ignorant and hating of Mortals
because they would be forced to acknowledge them and get along.
Harry saved that thought. He would have to bring up the possibility with
Dumbledore. See whether it was feasible. It could potentially solve a lot
of problems with a lot of the racism in the Wizarding World.
Harry smiled by just watching, Ginny's smile. Her smile was radiant as
she nodded her head in agreement with her new (Rose insisted) platinum
and diamond earrings moving slightly and he admired the sparkle of the
silver watch around her right wrist as it reflected in her beautiful eyes.
"Well to be honest I'm not really into all of this," he said gesturing at his
own outfit and around at the limo while she curled and seemed to push
her chest out a little further for him to admire her amazing cleavage.
Harry wore a black tuxedo of pure satin with a dark purple shirt, black
tie and black shoes with his hair neatly arranged.
"B-but you look so… so good," Ginny finally answered as she looked him
over more carefully her heartbeat picking up as she bravely slid her right
hand over the soft material of his shirt across his sold and powerful chest.
"Why thank you My Lady, but it is you who is simply radiant," he replied
with a smile as he pulled out a bottle of Champaign with two glasses
from the limo fridge.
Ginny blushed as she watched Harry. She sat back before she jumps him
and messes up her dress. The cork popped out of the bottle of its own
accord, and floated as Harry poured them both a glass before the cork
jammed itself back into the bottle and he put it back on ice.
Harry smiled as he handed Ginny her glass. Ginny took the glass timidly
and held it with an uncertain look in her eyes.
"I-I don't think my mother would approve," Ginny said with a look of
unconcerned uncertainty.
"She wouldn't approve of a lot of things," he laughed as he tapped his
glass to hers. "It's all a part of growing up and learning," he said as he
took a sip of drink. "Plus, its not the cheap stuff."
Ginny blushed but smiled as she took her own sip. Her eyes widened a
little. "Wow, I hadn't expected it to actually taste nice," she spoke in
surprise. "I've tasted wine before, sneaking some with Rose and Luna
even though Hermione was all teachers-pet and threatening to tell on us
she tried some too. But that stuff tasted bitter and… how come
something that's supposed to be a drink be so dry?"
Harry shrugged, amused. "Well that stuff was probably bargain basement
stuff from the local Tesco or wherever you witches shop for food. This
stuff costs in the region of two hundred and fifty pounds or there about."
Ginny double took with wide eyes. "B-but isn't that a lot of money?" she
asked, but he shrugged. "Whoa, this is like rich person drink or
something. Like stuff those snobby Pure-blood would have for their
Bitchy parties."
"Bitchy parties?" Harry asked with a laugh while Ginny blushed and tried
not to laugh with him.
"Its what Sirius said they were," Ginny said sheepishly. "He had to go to
them when he was a kid before he went to Hogwarts. He sometimes likes
telling us stories about the trouble he caused during those parties."
Harry laughed. "Well, talking of Sirius; he is paying." Harry said while
laughing.
Ginny's eyes widened as she giggled. "Don't you ever pay for anything?"
"Not if I can help it," he answered jokingly as they descended into
conversation.
0oo00oo0
Rose Potter was a little envious.
I can admit that. I really can.
She wished she was younger so Harry would pamper her like he was with
June. She loved her little sister more than anything but she would have
loved some extra attention too. But she was older and had to be more
self-sufficient. She couldn't be such a baby no matter how nice the extra
attention from her big brother would be.
Or maybe I could get Harry to set me up on a blind date with a friend of his.
That would be just as good wouldn't it?
Sahara?
I like Sahara.
Rose would be happy with a date with a boy or girl. She wasn't fussy. As
long as they were cute; and sexy; and hot; and they needed to be smart
enough to hold a proper conversation. And kind. Yes. She needed a boy/
girlfriend who was kind – and affectionate – a really good kisser and-
That all described Sahara to a tee.
Shaking her head quickly Rose flopped back on her bed and groaned as
she looked over at the second bed in the room. Ginny's bed. She was now
jealous of Ginny. And a little of her brother for doing Ginny's brains-out.
Rose hadn't been that sexually open with her best friend and now she was
making herself feel horny.
Rose thought back to Sahara again. Sahara was smoking hot. The taste of
her lips, her tits and pussy between Rose's lips, and the feel of that
muscular-firm arse between Rose's fingers.
Startled as Rose was by her perverseness she realised she was rubbing
herself over her shorts. Rose stopped and sat up with a sigh when her
thoughts slid back to her sister and brother. That alleviated her desires
only a little, but it would draw her mind away to something else rather
than how much she enjoyed her first proper taste of fanny rather than
just sucking her fingers after masturbating or diddling Ginny or Luna's
cute little twats while they diddled hers under the covers, and never
really acknowledging what they did afterwards.
"ROSE!" Rose groaned out her own name in annoyance as she looked to
the long thin package up against the wall by the door neatly wrapped
with a tag on the wrapping with a loving note from Harry.
Sighing, Rose had felt the glint of jealousy when she saw June's new
StrikerS racing broom. It was a glorious broom. June's new broom was
magnificent and made Rose wish she had gotten one instead of her
pathetic Nimbus. Sure Nimbus's were pretty cool, but they were not in
the StrikerS league.
Rose had only gotten the stupid Nimbus because everyone expected her
too even though it made more sense to get the new Firebolt or Firawind
as they both beat Nimbus hands down.
Damn, why did she have to believe it was cool to please all of her
devoted fans? Ginny had told Rose to get whichever one she wanted to
get. But no – Rose had to get the one everyone wanted her to get. Rose
had wanted the Firawind at the time – but she would have waited for the
StrikerS.
Now Rose's little sister had the best broom ever. And it even looked
awesome with all those galaxies and everything.
Rose shook her head and slapped herself a little as she hated herself for
having such selfish thoughts. Her sister deserved to have a doting big
brother to look out for her and get her everything their father had been
too lazy or douchy to get her.
At least Ginny had looked super-sexy in her new dress. And it was fun
dressing her up and getting to buy Ginny some super sexy knickers and
bras. Harry should thank her for that as Rose knew how to pamper her
friends and make them extra hot. Just thinking about Ginny in her new
underwear and – well Rose quivered with more naughty thoughts about
her friend.
Sighing at such a silly thoughts Rose was about to flop back onto her bed
when she paused as she looked back at the large brightly wrapped
package.
Rose collapsed back on the bed with teary eyes as she thought over the
note. Just from him. Not many words. But enough. From her brother.
Rose had a watery smile.
My Sweet Rosette,
I will always love you too.
Lots of Love,
Harry,
xoxox
Those six little words seemed to crush at her heart and make hot tears
spill from her eyes just as Hermione knocked once on the door, tried the
handle and entered as Rose ruefully realised she forgot to lock the door
as she was happy to brood alone and wasn't ready to feel better.
"Rose I was just…" Hermione trailed off in worry and quickly sat beside
Rose on the bed, taking her hand. "What's wrong Rose?" she asked in
concern.
Rose only gestured to the present up against the wall and wished she was
better, or good at hiding when she was feeling down. The tag was open
and Hermione smiled as she read it from the bed.
"Well aren't you going to open your present?" Hermione asked the red
head with a kind smile. "This is unlike you. Normally you're tearing gifts
free of their wrappings within moments."
Rose gave her a watery smile and shook her head. "I-I can't. D-do I even
deserve it. I was such a bitch to him when I was little and-and."
"You grew up and look at you now. You're a kind and loving person,"
Hermione said as she gave her friend a quick hug before pulling back.
"But, I think I understand girl, and I'm sure you'll open it when you're
ready, but we both know what it is right?"
Rose nodded sagely and no matter how much she may want it she
couldn't open it just yet. "I-I think I want to see Harry first. I want to give
him a big hug and thank him for being such an idiotic big brother."
Hermione laughed and rolled her eyes. "See, girl, you're much better than
then," Hermione said with a kind smile. "But I have something to tell
you… I kind of-of well. I shagged your brother on the boat. It was only
that and stuff. I like him but Ginny doesn't have competition from me.
We've got nothing in common, but… I need help coming up with a way
to finally dump Ron without him being a bitch."
Rose sat up with her tears almost forgotten as she wiped them away. "If
you're dumping that nitwit. I am so your go to girl to help plot," Rose
said with a watery grin. "Thanks, Hermione," She said as they hugged.
"But I haven't gotten it out of Ginny yet, so… I know he's my brother but
come on, I need to know – how was it?"
Hermione pulled back from her friend with huge blush. "The best thing I
have ever done," Hermione said. "I mean… I'm me. I don't do naughty
things. But. Your brother is hung and then some. And he really knows
what he's doing and… wait, Ginny, already?"
Nodding and flushed Rose was biting her lower lip. "I know; he works
fast and I'm kind of routing for them to fall madly in love-." Rose slowly
trailed off with a dreamy smile while Hermione laughed.
0oo00oo0
"H-Harry…?" Ginny asked to get his attention. "What are you going to do
when schools over?" she asked, both interested and worried. Ginny really
didn't want Harry to leave any of them.
"I don't know," he shrugged with a thoughtful frown. "I've never been to
Mexico before."
"It sounds nice," she replied more to herself than him. "Being so free…"
she trailed off into a whisper.
Harry sighed and wrapped his arms around Ginny's slender form and let
his lips touch hers. They moved their lips together in a gentle rhythm for
a few moments before her tongue touched his lips and he parted them
allowing her tongue entrance. They were like this for a few minutes
before Harry slowly pulled back smiling at her.
"Hmm…" Harry muttered while licking his lips. "You can always come
with me?" he asked causing her to look at him in surprise. "We can come
back in September… you can bring Rose and June and we can make a
proper holiday of it – and have a lot of fun. Party's all night and whatever
you could want."
Ginny smiled while licking her own swollen lips. "I'm not sure my mum
and dad would be too pleased, but… I don't care; it sounds like the sort
of opportunity that shouldn't be missed."
0oo00oo0
"You think you 'ave troubles?"
Rose was startled from where she lay on her bed as the young French
accent hit her ears. Rose had only been lying back on her bed moping a
little after Hermione left when the arsehole Ron turned up believing they
liked his company. And wouldn't stop banging on the locked door until
they opened it.
Hermione didn't want to dump the arsehole yet as she didn't feel
comfortable doing it with most of this family hanging around. And she
felt he might get violent with his jealousy and arsehole ways. Though,
Rose knew Harry would probably break the bastards face for that. Harry
may be a ladies man (or a bit of a slut might be more accurate – at least
he chose cute girls; and could get them); he wasn't a liar or a bruit.
Harry was kind and caring. Rose hadn't known him long, but she knew
the type of man he had grown to be. Harry would always stand up for
those who couldn't stand up for themselves. And what's more. Rose knew
Harry would be the first to break any abusive arse like Ron in two for
ever raising their hands or wands to a girl or woman.
"June isn't here for you to try molesting, Gabby!" Rose said while rolling
her eyes and sighing as she sat up. "She's in the next room over. You'll be
happy sharing with her," she finished as she shook her head as Veela
were a strange species and were a little more sexual than most.
However, any further thought left Rose's mind as she looked at the
stunning girl. She was about a month older than June with long smooth
flowing hair that she normally kept tied back. But now it was loose and
long, brushed over the right side hiding half her face. But Rose could see
the marks. The scaring over the right side of her face and the gash over
her left cheek.
It was the white squared eyepatch over her right eye with elastic behind
her ears going over the left side of her face that caught most of Rose's
attention though.
Gabrielle Delacour gave Rose a sad smile as her one crystal blue eye
watered slightly. She was small. Only an inch shorter than June and
slender. She was wearing some blue jeans and a white blouse with
comfortable white running shoes and somehow made the outfit with her
scars and eyepatch look good.
Rose couldn't look away. The normally vibrant and confident girl looked
so unsure and out of place; like she wasn't sure what to do with herself
any more as she nervously fidgeted with her fingers, which was
something Rose had never observed in her before. And her allure. Her
pull. She normally liked teasing her female friends with it – always awed
how June could still play ignorant while that was blazing at her.
"Oh no," Rose said as she flicked herself off the bed. She was still in her
shorts and tee shirt only in her socks.
Rose pulled Gabrielle into her arms and held her tight as the small
blonde girl broke down and cried.
Gabrielle held on to Rose as she shakily whimpered, sobbing. "J-June w-
wont like m-me any more," Gabrielle cried. "A-and I'll never be able to
get her to fall in love with me… and I-I love her so much!"
Rose groaned and pulled back, holding the younger girl at arms length
while she stared at her in return.
"You mean you're only crying because you think June is that shallow?"
Rose asked in annoyance. "Freaking hell, Gabby. You had me so worried."
Rose swept Gabrielle's silky soft hair back to see the eyepatch and
bandages. "How do you manage to pull off loosing an eye and getting an
eyepatch and-and still looking this good?"
"Veela blood?" Gabrielle suggested with a sad smile.
"Gabby!" June charged into the room and flung herself into Gabrielle's
arms crying. "I was so worried. I just heard that some-some… that you
got hurt!" she pulled back from the cuddle and brushed Gabrielle's hair
from her face and looked over the eyepatch and bandage in relief.
"I… I lost my eye," Gabrielle whispered timidly. "You'll think I'm ugly
now, won't you?"
June smiled as she shook her head and allowed Gabrielle's hair to fall
back into place before pulling Gabrielle tightly into her arms and
cuddling her tightly.
"Don't be silly! Gabby! Pirates are awesome!" June reprimanded playfully
and Gabrielle sniffled a laugh. "You have always been beautiful inside
and out ever since I've known you! You're my best friend and I love you
so much. Don't ever worry me like that again!"
Gabrielle whimpered as tears fell from her eye and she hugged her best
friend tighter and breathed in her scent. "I'm sorry for worrying you!"
Gabrielle cried out with her accent getting slightly thicker. "I love you
too and I don't want to ever lose you, please. Can I sleep in bed with you
tonight-!?"
Rose rolled her eyes as she had slipped her trainers back on and slipped
out of the room, snapping the door closed quietly behind her.
"Trust Gabby. First chance she gets, she capitalises," Rose muttered to
herself with a deep breath and a sigh.
"Oh, Rosette?"
Rose turned to see Mrs. Weasley climbing the stairs. "Have you seen that
poor, Gabrielle?" Mrs. Weasley asked gently. "I sent her to fetch you and
June to collect some snacks. You all need to eat something before bed."
"Oh, okay, Mrs. Weasley," Rose said with a sheepish smile. "They're in my
room. Gabby's just feeling down about her eye and I left them to hug it
out."
"Okay, dear," she replied. "And don't worry. I sent Ronald back to the
Burrow earlier and made sure, Hermione stayed here. I don't like to say it
but he is… not good enough. He's. I don't know why he's became the way
he is. Hermione's much too nice for him and I feel concerned because if
he tried anything – his brothers will fight over who gets to beat him up
first. But… girls... I certainly hope Ginevra has better taste."
Rose couldn't help but laugh slightly. "Well yeah. Ginny is out with Harry
after all."
Mrs. Weasley smiled slightly. "Well grab Gabrielle and Juniper and come
down to the kitchen for supper."

Chapter 14
Search for the King
"… so, this 'Bandit King can steal the stars from the heavens?" Ginny
asked while giggling and looking around in embarrassment as she and
Harry slipped into Grimmauld Place, and the dark Entrance Hall,
surprised that everything seemed so quiet. They were carrying a couple
of unopened bottles of champaign each and hoping everyone else had
gone to bed, even though it was barely eleven in the evening, but
everyone did have a fairly long day, so they wouldn't be surprised. "So,
do you also steal hearts as well as treasure?"
Harry laughingly shushed her with a kiss while gently closing the door.
"Your mum will kill me if she sees I let you drink," he said while
snickering.
Ginny smirked quietly at him and stuck her tongue out. "Don't be silly,
lets…!"
"You are in so much trouble, Ginevra!" They were interrupted, and Harry
didn't look fazed, but Ginny would have dropped one of her bottles if
Rose hadn't taken it from her as she watched it slipping. "Seriously,
Ginny, the look on your face, I wish the light was on so I could have seen
it better!" she snickered to keep her voice down while Ginny showed
relief. "You're lucky I managed to convince everyone else to scoot off to
bed before you got in. Come on," she said leading them sneakily down
into the empty kitchen where the light was on and they took a seat with
Rose and Ginny either side of Harry.
"Want some, Rosie?" Harry asked as he grabbed some clean glasses before
sitting between the girls.
Rose nodded her head eagerly as they placed bottles down and Harry
took one with the cork popping out before pouring three drinks and
recorking the bottle.
"Wow!" Rose muttered as she took a taste. "Not bad… this the expensive
stuff, on Sirius's tab?" she asked while smiling at her brother.
Harry smiled in return. "They do say the best things in life are free…" he
replied as he took a sip. "I don't think that's completely true though."
"Yeah," Rose agreed with a melancholy look on her face. "Harry," she said
slowly as she placed her drink down. "Thank you… I love you too!" she
said with tears in her green eyes as Harry placed his drink down and
pulled Rose into his arms and holding her tight enough that she slid from
her chair onto his lap and they cuddled while Ginny watched with a
smile. Harry ran his fingers through Rose's crimson red hair while kissing
her forehead, then cheeks, and then a quick peck to her lips before she
snuggled her face into the crock of his neck and breathed deeply. Her
breast heaved into his chest as she whimpered and breathed in shakily as
she let out a few sobs full of relief.
"I'm here for you now, Rosie!" Harry mumbled into her neck.
"I'm here for you too," Ginny piped in while sounding teary eyed as she
took one of Rose's hands and kissed her fingers and held her hand tight.
"But you need to find your own boyfriend, you can't have your brother…
and sorry, you won't want any of mine either," she laughed while Rose
pulled back from her cuddling and squeezed Ginny's hand tight in thanks
while she and Harry couldn't help but join in on Ginny's laugh.
Still laughing a little and brushing her tears away while blushing, Rose
let go of Ginny's hand and slid off Harry's lap and back to her seat,
downing her drink and pouring herself another.
"Thanks, Ginny, Harry…" Rose smiled as she took another drink and
feeling the warmth spread through her more. "I love you both, but I think
we should be off to bed before Mrs. Weasley finds us drinking, and we
have school tomorrow, and don't you two worry, I'll cover for you
both…" she said with a grin as she winked, stood, grabbed the open
bottle and spare and grabbed a spare glass. "And Harry," she said feeling
lighter than ever. "Thank you for the present… but next time, wrap up
any of your super strong friends for me as I think I could do with a little
extra loving… well, gotta be cute too, as I do still have my standards,"
she said sticking her tongue out while he laughed.
"I may have a couple, I might trust to keep you from getting too lonely,"
he replied with a clownish grin while she gave them each a cheeky winky
air-kiss and slipped from the kitchen and left Harry and Ginny alone.
Harry turned to his red head and smirked. "I did clean up a room earlier,
so… it would probably be a bit of a waste not warming it up a little too?"
"Or… a lot?" Ginny suggested while keeping from giggling and hoping
she wasn't blushing too much.
Elsewhere a young woman groaned. "Augh!" moaned Kairi. She was a
young woman nearing twenty. Twenty. That was so sad that she would
only be a teenager for another several months.
Kairi sat eating lunch alone in a conveniently placed fast-food joint. They
were going to be closed soon, and her business in Ireland was all, meh,
douche-bags doing douche-bag things as per normal, and luckily the end
of the world was once more put off to another day – and that weird bony
guy and his partner in day saving well – bad luck for him, but the day
was saved, so whatever. It wasn't like he was the only one to get the
wrong side of the 'coin flip' there, poor bugger. Kairi could only wish that
so many people would stop trying to destroy the world, so she could get
more time-off from the Guild, so it was lucky for her to get the next day
off, but she wasn't tired, so her normal, sleep the night and day away
plan was flawed as she had so much energy to waste.
"I'm soooo board, where's Harry when I need him?" Kairi asked herself
when she finished the last of her meal, munching up a fry and slurping
the rest of her shake. She stood up, growling. "Aha, I know, I'll go and
find him… he'll be happy to see me!" she chimed loudly in triumph
running from the cafeteria. "He sounded like he was having fun when he
called last time, and his last text said something about a… job? When did
Harry start taking normal jobs?"
"Hmm," wondered Kairi with a frown while running her fingers through
her long pitch-black hair on top of her head, ruffling her fringe, as her
hair was tied at her waist to keep it more manageable. She walked out of
the restaurant while a few staff members gave her wary glances as she
was talking to herself again. However, they blinked as she stepped out of
the doors and she was just not there anymore.
Appearing in the middle of Diagon Alley, Kairi stood still, looking around
in wonder. The ground was a little slushy as it was still winter but it
seemed a little warmer than Dublin, but not by much. It was pretty late,
but there were still quite a few people going about business as usual as
many stores were still open – well, a few places were still open and
looked to likely be closing as customers left, even at nine-thirty in the
evening, but that was a magical world wizardry thing, but then some
things and people preferred night time things, and the alley seemed to
have a few restaurants and bars that people were going in and out of,
even with the threat of Voldemort and his minions, people went about
with their lives.
"I wonder how I'll be able to find Harry?" Kairi asked herself in wonder,
looking up at the dark cold sky as she sighed and pulled her long black
coat a little tighter and adjusted her scarf. "It's getting really late, but he
said he escaped, and I suppose I could call, but surprises are more fun!"
she commented to herself, not noticing the strange looks she was getting
for standing in the middle of the street talking to herself. "Bloody hell!"
she growled making a few passers-by jump giving her a nervous glance
before hurrying away.
Kairi's sparkling dark eyes scanned the darkening sky for any sign of her
target, he was one of her closest friends, and he knew how to use that…
well, Harry King knew how to give a girl some wonderful loving. She had
tried dating before, but she just couldn't let it go further as Harry might
have broken her. She loved him and felt weird trying to date anyone else,
so she left those poor boys high and dry. She bet herself the git was
probably nice and comfortable wherever he was, rather than outside in
the middle of the night in the middle of Diagon Alley.
"Hmm… oh I know… maybe if I find that silly old man who runs that big
ol' school for magical twits, I bet he'll no where I can find Harry – he did
give Harry a job – just shows how twit like they are… but, yup, sounds
like a good plan," Kairi nodded in agreement to her own statement still
blissfully unaware of all the weird looks the passing night-lifers kept
shooting at her, and even the younger boys who were delusional chose
not to ask to buy her a drink in case crazy was contagious.
Thinking for a moment more, Kairi was tapping her finger to the side of
her head, screwing up her pretty face in concentration. "Augh!" she
moaned. "What the bloody hell was that old guys name again?" she
demanded in frustration. "Uh, how many mega old farts can there be
anyway? He kind of looks like he could play Merlin in the films!"
Kairi looked down at the small black boots on her small feet, tapping her
right foot in thought. She wore some deep blue trousers that came short
of her ankles, and her little white socks were hidden by her boots. She
was wearing a tight blue tee to match her trousers and a nice warm blue
sweater she received as a Christmas pressie from her friend Ocean who
still lives at home with her parents and they had been close family
friends for years; her new black leather gloves were a delightful and
practical gift from her brother. With Ocean's family was where Kairi met
Harry for the first time. Her scarf was a lighter colour, creamy like the
faux fur around the hood of her coat. She was quite blessed in the
boobage department, but she wasn't the tallest girl around, but she was
okay with that as she never needed much makeup to make herself sparkle
a little extra, just a little gloss for her lips did her fine.
Tapping the floor with the toes of her small right boot as Kairi continued
thinking while not realising that she had cracked one of the cobbled
stones and was more or less rolling it around with the toe of her boot
what used to be firmly planted, she just couldn't remember where the old
man would be or who he was for that matter.
However, Kairi was trying with all her might to think of a name to go
with the silly old man so he could help her find Harry. She always had a
bit of a problem with remembering names because – well, quite honestly,
they sometimes flew over her head if she had no personal investment in
remembering. It made things worse that the old geezer was pretty well
known in many magical communities, but she didn't have to deal with
them very often.
"Hmm, isn't he supposed to be super famous or… he offed some douche-
evil-douche or something a few decades ago?" Kairi declared glaring at
the floor as history was never one of her strong points, even recent
history. She lifted her dark eyed gaze to look around. She was about to
see if someone could help her remember, maybe the bookshop clerk
when she remembered something. "Aha!" she squealed in delight, not
noticing she startled some more people, not that she noticed much
anyway as they were all keeping clear so none of her senses were picking
up any need to care.
"I remember something…" Kairi muttered thoughtfully. "The old man is
that dippy headmaster. I heard from my brother that he has apparently
started kicking butt because he's fed up of getting nothing done with
these dippy Death Eaters around, and that dippy master of theirs, but
what did Grey say his name was…? Damn, he was giving me so much
intel, like a baby in a candy store, he thought the whole thing was
hilarious, so I kind of zoned out…"
Kairi then frowned in thought, still not noticing the caution people took
to give the insane girl plenty of space. In fact, nobody came within ten
metres of her while she stood in her bubble of ignorance and insanity.
"Hmm, but what school does he work at… Pig… school… no?" Kairi
asked herself frowning deep in thought again. "Toadstool… school?" she
asked while shaking her pretty head and tapping her right cheek with her
right-hand fingers while she folded her left arm under her chest, and
standing on her left foot she used her right to subconsciously smash the
stone the in ground behind her left foot, stubbing her boot, thinking
hard, and scaring the shit out of people as they wanted nothing to do
with crazy strong girls. She should perhaps have paid more attention to
her brother when he was ranting about things. "Where, where, where
does the old man work? Hmm, aha, I know I know," she skipped about in
delight doing a little dance and waving her arms and hands in the air,
overjoyed as she remembered. "HOGWARTS!" she squealed excitedly
making everyone nearby jump, and they turned and looked at the odd
girl as she continued her victory dance, this time adding words, sing
song, way off key. "Ohhh, off to Hogwarts I go – off to Hogwarts I go…
I'll find the old coot; he'll tell me where to find Harrrrrrry!... then I'll get
laid!" she giggled, everyone listening might as well have face faulted as
the girl just disappeared without a sound with a large blush just having
noticed her small audience.
Kairi appeared soundlessly in Hogsmeade village with a large frown
graced on her brow; it was a bit darker in Hogsmeade as they had less
lighting as it was much smaller, but that was not very weird, there were
some annoyingly loud noises from somewhere near where she appeared,
and she internally groaned in mild despair. Kairi could hear laughing and
cheering along with screams and explosions.
"For a small village they sure do like to make a racket, even my last
birthday party wasn't this noisy – or Christmas day with the whole family
at mum and dads!" Kairi commented to herself while shaking her head in
wonder as she walked further into the village. She had not been to
Hogsmeade before so did not know where to find the gates to Hogwarts
school. However, she heard there was a pretty nice pub in the village her
brother had tried out with some of his mates once. The Three
Broomsticks. She thought that might be the best place to get directions to
the school.
Kairi stretched her arms a little as she sidestepped to her right as she
walked, frowning as the ugly yellow spell flew through where she was
walking moments before.
"Wow, these villagers sure are stupid jerks just firing off random spells
like that," Kairi said wishing someone could hear her humorous takes.
"They could hurt someone," she continued in mock anger. "I'm only
looking for my lover-boy for a little fun," she sighed, slumping her
shoulders before shrugging, and continuing to look for the pub. She
turned a corner towards all of the loud noise and blinked in surprise,
coming to a halt. "Ah, well, I can't play silly games anymore, as that spell
makes perfect sense now: douchey Death Eaters," she nodded in
understanding as her eyes glazed the battle ensuing between light and
dark wizards and witches. She wondered whether she should go and help
or not, and was about to go beat up some bad-guys, and then ask an
auror for directions when someone called out to her.
"HEY!" It was a woman's voice. Kairi looked around and noticed the pub
she was looking for before with a busty woman poking her head out of
the door staring at her worriedly. "Quickly, get in before you get hurt!"
she called hurriedly.
Kairi shrugged and made her way over with the woman opening the
door, and letting her in before closing it and locking the door. Kairi noted
quite a few people hiding in the nice pub. They all looked scared out of
their minds. Kairi turned to the woman who let her in and grinned,
happy she could at least ask for directions now.
"Hi, I'm Kairi," she introduced herself cheerfully. "Could you give me
directions to Hogwarts please? … I'm looking for a really close friend of
mine, but I need to find this old man who's like the headmaster, so he
can tell me where to go."
The woman along with everybody else hiding double took; unable to
comprehend the girl only came in for directions. "B-but, um… didn't you
notice the battle outside?" she asked the girl worriedly.
Kairi shrugged with a beaming grin. "So, they're only Death Eaters," she
shrugged again. "Beating up minions is the easiest thing in the universe.
They're not boss monsters, so who cares? So, anyway, where do I go to
get to Hogwarts?" she asked with hope.
"Um, down the road that the fighting is on," she answered unable to
comprehend the strange girl.
"Yippee!" she squealed in delight, hopping up and down excitedly, from
one foot to the other like a little schoolgirl. "I'll definitely be able to find
the old man now!" she giggled eagerly as she unlocked the door, flung it
open and dashed out before anyone could stop her. To everyone's horror
two Death Eaters had gotten passed the aurors and stood just outside and
sneered at Kairi. However, they all winced in unison as the girl moved in,
and her left hand snapped a Death Eaters wrist and wand while he
squealed and cried before a sliding palm thrust shattered his ribs and
blood burst from his mask as he flew back several feet and crashed to the
ground.
Kairi had overstretched passed the other Death Eater, and pulled back,
her right leg caught his left as she span round, and clapped his arm as he
fell, tearing it limp from his shoulder while on his way down, crying in
terror as he let his wand go with his other hand, reaching instinctually
for his shattered shoulder. He hit the ground with a crash and cry as the
wind was destroyed from his lungs and Kairi's right leg came around with
so much force, the Death Eaters neck rocked and cracked as Kairi's boot
smashed into his face.
Turning her gaze to the gawking people behind her, Kairi's expression
had turned cool and serious, her eyes cold and hard. "A dead enemy is
one that can't come back to haunt you," she informed them as way of
explaining her actions as she stood straight, letting the Death Eater drop,
and turned away, looking towards the battle, she sighed and ran off
toward the Death Eaters and aurors.
"I think that is probably a friend of 'his'?" a woman commented while
holding her tot close to her chest while the kid squirmed to see, but the
door closed out the cold of the battle in Hogsmeade.
The dark-haired girl thought about fighting the Death Eaters again, but
she probably wasn't supposed to, and mildly wondered what the Guild
Master would think before she realised that – well – technically the Death
Eaters were between her and her goal, and she was allowed to defend
herself. It was after all a public street and she had every right to use it.
Yes, if she had to deal with more Death Eaters, she would write it up as
self-defence – strangely, she had noticed a lot more self-defence reports
since Voldemort and his Death Eaters returned to being arseholes – well,
bigger arseholes than they were before.
However, since she now knew where to find the old man she was looking
for, she decided she would give running right passed them ago, and only
taking those in her way down. However, just as she ran passed the
shocked aurors and other assorted fighters her gaze caught sight of an old
man fighting, and putting a bloodied hole through a Death Eaters gut,
but he at least grimaced like he didn't mean to be that gross about his
butt-kicking prowess.
Kairi skidded to a halt, dodging with ease a couple of killers and grinned
widely, the old man had white hair and beard with blue eyes. She
remembered her brother mentioning that, and the half-moon glasses, and
she remembered laughing hard when Grey said the old man's robes
suggested that not all gay men had an eye for fashion while still looking
like something only a gay man would attempt to wear. Yup, she had to
agree, purple robes with gold stars and moons was something only a gay
man could get away with attempting, and even then, only an older
dippier gay man would try that as it was obvious people were passed
trying to get him to wear normal outfits.
Sidestepping another couple of spells, Kairi made her way towards the
old man, completely oblivious to all the incurious, startled staring she
received. She made short time before she was standing next to the old
man and watched him for a moment as he darted about firing spells,
fighting his enemy. He was pretty good with his magical stick using
talents, and even knocked a few spells away without using it. He was also
pretty spry for a guy over ten decades old.
"Excuse me, Old Man!" Kairi greeted loudly over the noise of the battle as
she took a step closer while avoiding another spell.
The old man startled, looking to the side he noticed a beaming young
woman staring up at him, his mouth opened agape for a moment before
he shook his head clear.
"Miss. You should move quickly; can't you see its dangerous!?" the old
man demanded as he continued fighting while trying to move closer to
her.
"No…" she retorted sarcastically with a roll of her eyes and a giggle.
"Well anyway, can you tell me where Harry King is please?" she said
while startling the man. "Harry said that you were the dippy old man that
gave him a job at your school! I'm Hunter Kairi Serami, from the Guild,"
she said while pulling out a holographic ID card from her pocket with her
picture and name and the Guilds weird swirly logo. "Harry's a friend of
mine, and I wanted to surprise him!"
The old man startled again and looked back at her grinning face as she
rose her right hand towards the Death Eaters as a spell suddenly hit and
disburse over a flickering of light. She hadn't even turned to look at the
offender as her hand curved into a two finger, finger-gun and fired a blue
light. Dumbledore watched as the light splashed through a shield like it
was nothing and crashed into a Death Eaters mask. The Death Eater
screamed as his mask folded around his head and the eyeholes sealed up.
He dropped to his knees while crying as he dropped his wand and the old
man gathered, he lost all his senses, and his fellow Death Eaters couldn't
seem to help him as they only ever knew the mean spells, and never how
to undo them.
"You're a Hunter," the old man asked in surprise. "I've heard of the Guild
but never met a Hunter before, it's a…" he paused as he reflected a spell
back, but didn't look to know it hit the twit that sent it. "Pleasure," he
continued and finished.
"So… Harry?" she replied a bit annoyed the noise around them was
becoming tiresome. "Hang on, I'll be back in a minute," she said turning
towards the battle, glaring as she moved nonchalant out of the path of a
killing curse – she hated those ones.
Kairi then reached into seemingly nowhere, and the old man watched as
she pulled out something small, dodging another curse, she dropped it on
the floor and it just enlarged itself into some kind of large metal trunk
that stood to her waist in height. Kairi moved out of the path of two
more spells and opened the trunk. It opened up, draws and compartments
rising up and out like a lady's make-up kit, only if the lady was on
Broadway and did all the actors makeup. However, this trunk held no
feminine products, but instead housed more weapons than the old man
had ever seen in such a small box, from small daggers to muggle guns,
and things he wouldn't be able to discover without asking. Kairi pulled
down a small section of the inside of the lid like a rolling folding door,
and pulled out a huge square weapon in military green with four holes in
the front and a handle from a compartment that look barely big enough
for a pair of summer socks somehow. The thing was big enough that if
the trunk was normal it would have trouble fitting, and seemed
impossible to describe how it was pulled out. The old man was actually
impressed. Whoever made Kairi's box was really good with runes and
special magics, better than anyone he knew.
Smiling, Kairi flung the green thing onto her right shoulder, flipping
switches she looked through a transparent green plastic visor, aiming it
at the Death Eaters as she dodged another curse and pressing a few
buttons. The elder man peered over Kairi's shoulder as he watched the
green screen as a multitude of red nodes seemed to fly over all the Death
Eaters tracking them and then locking.
It only took a few moments before Kairi pulled the triggers and around
thirty or so small explosions ripped from her weapons ports and the old
man stumbled back, as the red burning lights roared and curved up and
over towards the annoying enemy who so helpfully stood still and
watched in confusion. Kairi looked a little embarrassed as the force of her
modified rocket launchers forced her to slide back on the gravel road a
few paces before she reclaimed her footing. Then a multitude of burning
eruptions of fire and chaos hit down on the targeted Death Eaters, killing
them and anyone standing nearby. They were torn to smithereens in and
explosive death; they screamed and cried as they died while the aurors
and old man all stared at the destruction one small girl caused in horror,
all making a mental note, never piss this weird girl off.
Frowning at her rocket launcher, Kairi shook her head. "That's going to
cost to get this refilled," she muttered to herself as the world around her
seemed void of sound. However, she shrugged. "Well worth it though as I
never get to use things like it as normal people aren't as stupid as Death
eaters," she said cheerfully as she looked up as the vast majority of the
Death Eaters were now dead, dying, or in serious need for a doctor, but
some Death Eaters still stood while looking around them in horror as
sound returned and they could hear the crying and screaming for help.
Those Death Eaters still able to resist chose to throw their wands as far
away as possible and throwing off their masks burst into black smog and
they rose their hands high above their heads in panic begging to be
arrested, and hope they never have the opportunity to see this girl ever
again.
Kairi finally grinned at a job well done while confused aurors quickly
moved to cuff those surrendering while others saw fit to send out medics
to see to survivors. Kairi shrugged as she replaced her rocket launcher
back into her weapons trunk, closed it, shrunk it and placed it back into
wherever it went before returning her gaze to the old man, looking all
too cheerful about her noise reduction technique.
"So old man, where's Harry?" she asked bouncing up and down excitedly.
The old man stared down at her shaking his head in shock. "Um, err,
okay, follow me and I'll take you to him." It was all he could think to
reply, leading the way passed all the destruction. Kairi bounced along
behind him excitedly. It did not take them long to reach the old man's
office at Hogwarts, and Kairi was enthralled to see the inside of the
school and even the headmaster's office. The old man even had a
phoenix: Fawkes.
Dumbledore thought it over for a time while staring at her, and he could
not find any malice and Kairi knew he was using plenty of magical
trinkets to check her out. He smiled slightly before nodding his head as
he told her the secret, and within a few moments, she was slipping
through his fireplace to Grimmauld Place.
Sighing and leaning back in his chair, Dumbledore took a deep breath
before a woman with greying red hair entered with a couple of her
aurors.
"Where has that girl gone?" Amelia Bones asked while looking around for
her.
Dumbledore shook his head. "It turns out she is a friend of Mr. King's,"
Dumbledore answered as he handed her a piece of card in white with her
name and contact details on it in a neat blue script.
"The Guild?!" Amelia asked doubtfully.
"It appears so," he agreed with a shrug.
Amelia slumped into a spare chair in front of Dumbledore's desk with a
sigh. "This is going to be a lot of paperwork," she said sadly. "I still
haven't finished with the paperwork that Mr. King has caused. Where do
the… outsiders find such powerful mage. Is he apart of this Guild too?"
"No. She told me that much," Dumbledore answered. "They've just known
each other since they were much younger… likely learnt some of these
talents together. I cannot wait to see what Mr. King… I mean, Professor
King will be able to teach the students."
"You know, Albus," Amelia said with a groan. "If any other headteacher
said they were hiring a sixteen-year-old to teach at their schools; they
would be laughed at and likely lose their jobs."
Dumbledore smiled with brightly twinkling eyes as he pulled out a white
paper bag, and opening it made a gesture. "Would you like a lemon drop,
Amelia?"
"I know you keep something better than that around here, Dumbledore!"
Amelia reprimanded while he chuckled and seemed to pull a tray with a
bottle of brandy and glasses out of nowhere.
Meanwhile, Kairi exited the floo fireplace into the kitchen of what
seemed to be a large old house and frowned. "Hmm, where is
everybody?" she asked herself in wonder checking her watch for the time.
"Huh? Just gone twelve AM, geez, I must have been searching for hours,"
she sighed dramatically and overexaggerating while shaking her head,
but she skipped off happily in search of someone to wake and tell her
where Harry was as the place was coated with ridiculous amounts of
magic overlapping, so it was more difficult to map out where people
were without getting closer.
Kairi skipped sneakily out of the kitchen and up into a dark hallway, and
found the stairs up to where sleeping rooms would be, and slipped up the
stairs to the second floor, and walked down the corridor for a moment
when she sensed two rooms next to her had people in, therefore stopped
with a huge grin. She then knocked once on the first door and just barged
in as she threaded some magic to breach the locks, which was a specialty
of hers. She saw two girls a few years younger than her in two separate
beds, their eyes now wide with shock and a little fear staring at her in the
dim light.
The red head. The cuter of the two quickly climbed out of her bed,
throwing her covers away and was only wearing some blue knickers and
bra, looking pretty nice, except she was lacking some muscle. She
obviously needed some training. The red head picked up a half full glass
and threatened her with it while looking shaky.
"Hey, thanks!" Kairi said as she moved fast and was suddenly drinking the
last of the champaign in the glass. "Wow; that's pretty tasty. A nice drink.
A hot young witch in her undies… was that the door to heaven?" she
asked while turning to the other girl with bushy brown hair still in bed
looking like she wasn't sure what she could do. "Are you naked under
their with some delicious barbeque?" she asked hopefully.
"W-who are you?" Rose asked while blushing as the strange Asian hottie
turned to her and stared unashamedly. The dark-haired girl had amazing
features and looked almost as pale as Rose was, but with a seemingly
flawless complexion. "Do… do you know Kung Fu?"
"Huh?" the Asian girl asked while confused. "I think Kung Fu is a Chinese
thing, and I'm British, but my mum and dad were both born in Japan."
"No, um…" Rose blushed. "I-I mean you moved so fast to take the glass…
are you from the Mystic's Council?"
"Oh!" she replied while giggling. "No. I'm not with the Council, silly, my
name is Kairi Serami, nineteen years old, adorable-."
"You're a friend of my brothers, aren't you?" Rose asked while Kairi place
the now empty glass down.
Kairi's eyes widened and she suddenly cuddled hold of Rose and grabbed
her arse. "Wow, Rosette Potter – ha, take that Sahara, I'm groping the
Girl-Who-Lived's arse in her knickers!" she gloated smugly.
Rose blushed brightly when Kairi pulled back looking suspicious. "You
know who Sahara is, don't you…? Damn, you were with Harry when he
asked me for help and I couldn't get away… that cute snow-white bitch
fucked you, didn't she? That's the sort of thing you could expect from her.
When she doesn't have Harry, she'll find a cute bit of tail like you," she
pulled back in dramatic flair while Rose looked at her bushy haired
friend to see her blushing brightly and staring at Rose in shock.
"Oh, don't Hermione!" Rose said while pout glaring. "You shagged my
brother after knowing him for twenty minutes."
"That sounds like Harry," Kairi said while grinning. "If he's not around, I'll
not be able to keep my hands off the pair of you. I already think I'm
going to have to throw these knickers away they're that wet."
"Erm, I would be okay with having some fun," Rose said while Hermione
embarrassedly glared at her. "But Hermione only swings for the fellers. I
described Arctic to her and she seems to like the idea. Harry said he's
eternally single, so easy pickings! They're both big time library nerds too,
so that could be helpful."
"Yep; that sounds like, Arctic," Kairi agreed while pulling off her gloves
and placing them in her coat pocket before groping Rose's tits through
her bra.
Rose shyly slapped Kairi's hands away while smiling. "Hermione gets
really weird about things like that. She's not homophobic or anything;
she gets weird seeing boys and girls being affectionate too."
"I see," Kairi said and before Rose knew it, she was in Kairi's arms and
they were snogging full on tongue, eyes closed, arms wrapped around
each other before Kairi finally pulled back and smirked while Hermione
blushed up a storm. "The best medicine is to desensitise her with a little
fun," she suggested while Rose was blushing and breathing heavily.
"P-please don't," Hermione whimpered while squirming under her covers
as she wouldn't and couldn't come out as she let her eyes look to Rose's
knickers where they were soaking, and she seemed so unashamed.
"Harry's next door giving our best friend Ginny a good seeing too!" Rose
said sadly to defend her friend from the teasing.
"Okay," Kairi said with a sheepish smile as she squeezed Rose's soaking
crutch and Rose almost came before Kairi pulled back licking her fingers
and looking smug. "If I don't get to shag either of you, I'll go and have a
three-some with Harry and your friend," she said while sticking her
tongue out and wiggling it while she slipped backwards from the room,
and reinstalling all of the locks.
Rose whimpered as she slipped down to her knees and was rubbing
herself over her knickers and couldn't stop. Hermione could only watch
transfixed and highly humiliated as her best friend masturbated over her
knickers and came pretty hard before slipping into bed without another
word, and Hermione knew her friend would be asleep within seconds.
However, while Hermione was being desensitised, Kairi reached Harry's
door and placed her right hand on the door giggling when she felt the
same seals, he used with her since they were on the more difficult to
undo without the creator noticing. Therefore, reversed the seals, a huge
excited grin spreading her features hoping she caught them in the act,
but she frowned a little as she was sure Harry would notice her. Kairi
however slowly opened the door enough to slide in; slowly closing it
behind her, she reset the seals, looking up towards the bed now she could
hear a girl whimpering with groans.
Licking her lips, Kairi saw a new gorgeous sexy red-haired girl naked.
Kairi would have loved to shag Rose as she had the same problem Sahara
did, so she would enjoy this red head too. The red head cuties legs were
wide around the naked form of her dark-haired partners' waist as he
gently pumped his monster deep within the girl's quivering body.
Ginny's beautiful small breasts heaved with her heavy breathing; her lips
connected with Harry's, her hands feeling the muscles on his back. Kairi
grinned as she was already super turned on by Rose, but this scene could
make any horney girl piss herself in delight.
Kairi pulled off her scarf and let it fall to the ground with her coat and
sweater following them before she undid her belt and licked her lips as
she sneakily kicked her boots off. Kairi had to hold off her delighted
giggling as she was so close to them, just a bit further and she could grab
those cute little tits and suckle those hot pink nipples while Harry kept
on moving faster and harder.
Harry pulled his lips from Ginny's and kissed her nose. "You're a pervert,
Kairi!" he said turning to her as she had just pulled off her tee and threw
it behind her, showing off her large firm tits in her black sports bra.
"W-who is she?!" Ginny stuttered out feeling confliction between her
body and brain giving her different orders. Her brain told her to stop and
cover up and her body told her to keep going and that this Asian girl was
extremely sexy. It was down to a tiebreaker, so she asked her heart, and
that just made her push up and slide Harry back all the way into her
while whimpering.
"G-Ginny; this is Kairi," Harry introduced. "Kairi, this is Ginny!" he
continued.
"Yeah, your sexy twin sister told me," Kairi said as she slid up onto the
bed running one hand over Harry's powerful back and the other over
Ginny's cute tits before kissing Harry and then Ginny and leaning down,
she sucked Ginny's hot little nipples each in turn.
Ginny quivered while holding Kairi's mouth to her tit while Harry
continued moving in her and it only took a moment for and explosion to
destroy all past explosions made Ginny cry out and whimper and squeal
before Kairi quietened her with her lips – a girl she had barely even met.
"I guess, my mission isn't over until we pass out!" Kairi said as she pulled
back from Ginny's lips and smirked as she watched as Harry emptied his
balls into Ginny's delightful body.

Chapter 15
King of the Spirit
Rosette Potter lay in bed snuggled under her covers as her mind whirled
with the weirdness of the last few days, and especially that night. Her
brother knew some extremely strange people. She still felt a little tingly
thinking about Kairi. That thought made her feel heat in her cheeks as
she remembered she had masturbated in front of Hermione. Though, at
least she never took her knickers off or something like that, and
Hermione was always so shy while talking about sex, and had to force
herself to speak about what she did with Harry. It was kind of amusing in
an adorable kind of way.
Luckily, Rose hadn't drunk much of the champaign, so she didn't feel any
hangover type event happening to her. That was lucky, and she looked at
the watch on her dresser and it showed she had three hours until she had
to be on the train to school for round two. Hopefully, the Death Eaters
might have had enough losing for the past few days that they'll leave
everyone alone for a while at least.
Yawning a little and stretching her pathetic muscles, she sat up in bed.
She felt a little relieved to see Hermione had already gotten ready while
she slept, and had left the room. Therefore, Rose hopped out of bed and
rubbed sleepy from her eyes before pulling a towel out of the dresser she
slipped into the shower and pulling off her panties and bra and placing
them on the side, she would take them with her for the school elves to
clean since she wouldn't have time to wash them herself.
The shower was nice and refreshing, and once done she dried off and
climbed into a clean set of white undies and her school uniform since
they were going to be apparated to the train station, so she might as well
go in her uniform to save her digging out her robe or having to find a
cute enough outfit to wear.
Rose had just finished doing up her hair when she was startled by a huge
bang-bang-bang on her bedroom door. Rose had startled further when
she next heard some kind of blast hit her door. Yet the door oddly bulged
inwards towards Rose for a moment, but it held, as that was how they
were supposed to defend their occupants as giving a little kept their
stability. She had to hand it to the dark side; they made some good
quality magical doors – or they bought good quality at least as she
doubted, they made them their-selves.
"OPEN UP!" Rose wasn't surprised that Ronald the bastard was attacking
her door. "I know you're in there doing things with my sister and
girlfriend!" he roared and Rose looked around.
"Is he talking about me?" Rose asked herself quietly while Ronald kept
slamming on her door in jealous fury. "No, does he think Harry's in my
room shagging Hermione and Ginny in front of me or something?"
Then, Rose staggered and almost fell to her knees as she had never felt
power like it before. The banging stopped and it felt like hell had opened
up in the hallway. Was that Harry's aura? That felt nothing like those
hints she felt before. This was cold and full of an anger that Harry had
never shown before. Then the wall one side of the door cracked as
something was rammed into it.
Staggering to the door, Rose unlocked it and pulled it open. She looked
down as Ron was splayed on the floor staring down the corridor in terror
as he struggled to scoot further away. Rose looked to see Harry was there
wearing a neat black suit with dark silver pinstripes and a neat white
shirt and a waistcoat with a black tie with his hair in neat disarray,
looking good. Ginny stood next to Harry in her school robes and was
staring in open mouthed horror and awe while Harry looked like he was
looking at something on his phone without a care in the world.
"You don't have to break the house, Kairi," Harry commented in mild
disappointment as he placed his phone away.
"Hey, Rose!" Kairi said and Rose gulped as her attention was finally
drawn to where she didn't want to look.
Next to Rose's door with her right fist still half in the solid wall was the
beautiful Asian girl, and though she still looked as amazing as ever, and
she was dressed in the same clothes from the night before, though her
coat was undone and her scarf was loose, but her aura of malice was
thick with power; it was like murky pinks and purples and blacks filling
the hallway. It was like Rose could see the daemonic creature that hid
beneath that sexy human exterior, and it was strangely even more
beautiful if that was possible, in a terrifying and horrifying way that was
inexplainable, even within her own mind.
Kairi's cool dark eyes were fully black now and swept from Rose and back
to Ronald and he looked like he might have already shit himself. "You
dare!?" Kairi demanded coldly as she pulled her fist from the wall. "A
pathetic weakling like you deserves nothing!" she said and her voice
seemed coated in magic now like her words could wipe Ronald out of
existence.
"Ronald Weasley!" They were interrupted by a shaky growl of anger as a
ginger haired man wearing his everyday suit robes stood on the stairs
leading from above, his fists clenched and teeth bared while his eyes
were blazing, and Ron seemed to scoot back further while Bill turned to
Harry and Ginny.
Harry looked at him and smiled. "Don't ask me, mate, Ginny was just
keeping me and Kairi company as we were all up a little early – he's not
even at the right door," Harry said while chuckling without any concern
before turning to Kairi, and pulling her to him with his right arm around
her waist. "Calm down, you've made your point, and probably everyone
else's too."
Kairi sighed with a pout as her eyes returned to normal and the aura of
despair faded away and Ronald scrambled to his feet.
"I-I'll get you for this!" Ronald roared in anger while panting for breath
and sweating. "Where's Hermione. I know you have her!"
"I'm here!" Hermione interrupted angrily from the stairs leading up from
downstairs where Molly Weasley was standing behind her and even Kairi
grimaced at that look, but Ron wasn't that bright. "We're through,
Ronald, and if you bother me or my friends again, I will go to the Aurors
Office!"
"Shut up!" Ronald roared. "You don't get any say in this!"
Mrs. Weasley gently pushed passed Hermione and Ginny would later tell
them that she had never, never-ever, never-never-never-ever seen her
mother with a look like that before, anger and tears, and disgust, and
then Ronald collapsed to the floor after his mother slapped him with the
slap to end all slaps (well, Harry and Kairi could kill him with a slap, but
still). Ronald crumpled like tissue paper and started bawling his eyes out,
crying and whimpering.
"Bill, please take your brother and his things and leave him on the
platform to school!" Mrs. Weasley said coldly. "He doesn't deserve
breakfast, and I don't want to look at him any more than I have to."
"Sure mum," Bill agreed.
"Do you want me to come with you?" asked a stunning young blonde
woman from behind him on the stairs using a French accent.
"Nah, Fleur, I got this!" he replied as he grabbed his brother by his upper
arm, and forced him to stand before marching him passed Hermione and
down the stairs while all Ron could do was sob.
Mrs. Weasley took a gentle breath before turning a semi-smile to Kairi.
"I'm sorry my youngest son has… turned into a fool… are you a friend of
Harry's?"
"Yeah, we've been friends for years," she agreed with a smile. "I'm Kairi
Serami! It's no problem. Men and women like that… sometimes get over
themselves… or… well…"
"I see," Mrs. Weasley agreed with a nod before turning and taking the
stairs back down.
"What are you?" Rose asked while turning to Kairi.
Kairi smiled while shrugging. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you."
"You're a Spirit Yokai, aren't you?" Fleur asked in concern.
Shaking her head, Kairi laughed. "No, I'm not. I will say you're on the
right track though, but even magical people have issues seeing spirits like
that… and it would-."
"What's a Spirit Yokai?" Hermione interrupted quickly in confusion;
afraid she wouldn't get her chance. "Isn't a Yokai a demonic spirit or
something anyway? I've read about a few things like that in a book on
spirits. So, isn't the name a bit redundant?"
"She means Nature Yokai," Harry answered. "When nature dies it can be
reborn as a destructive demonic being, and will take the form of a nearby
creature once born. Even nature can have a hissy fit when it dies. But the
destruction has to be huge to make a massive joint regret for well over a
million spirits… thankfully or that could be fucked up for humanity – we
tend to piss off nature, a lot."
"Yeah, you would know if I was a bijū," Kairi said thoughtfully. "Or
maybe you wouldn't. But even a Tamer can't control anything like them,
well; there have been legends."
"Kairi is actually kind of human," Harry said which caused her to pout
and the others to look sceptical. "Her family are Tamers. They aren't
human in the way you might think. They're born without living spiritual
energy, but yokai instead, and when that yokai builds as they age, boom;
their own power tears them apart. Therefore, when they reach a certain
age, they summon an otherworldly being and share their bodies with it,
so that it… the being of yokai can regulate all that energy a living body
can't."
Kairi shrugged. "I'm sorry, I let Kairi-chan's vicious side show."
"Before you ask most demons and angels or whatever you would want to
call them, don't have names, so Kairi shares Kairi's name," Harry said
while grinning. "They are the same and yet they aren't… trust me, you'll
know which is which much easier with Kairi as she has a demonic yokai."
"So, what is that yogurt thing?" Rose asked in confusion.
"You mean Yokai?" Harry asked while she nodded. "Yokai is the opposite
of chakra or ki. Its spiritual energy but whereas ki and chakra and chi are
terms used for living spirit energy, yokai is non-living spiritual energy –
energy from beyond the living worlds like from, I suppose you could say
heaven and hell, but not… it's a bit of a tricky dilemma as no one really
understands it to be honest, but plenty of people still research it now, and
they likely will for as long as the Earth exists. But anyway, how are you,
Hermione after everything that just happened, you probably shouldn't be
so… interested in-."
"No, its okay," Hermione said timidly. "Breaking up with that-that idiot
has been a long time coming. I'm actually relieved, and this is all so much
more fascinating than Ronald being a… pillock."
"Wow, you can self-censor!" Fleur said while shaking her head. "Because
pillock is being extremely kind," she said before slipping passed
Hermione and disappearing down the stairs.
"I should probably get going, too," Kairi said with a smile. "You guys have
to get off to school soon, and I have the day off, so I think I'll grab a
sandwich, complete an errand someone wants me to run." She smirked at
Harry here, to show it was his errand that she agreed to run. "Then I'll
probably go and hang out with Sahara if she's free," she said before
kissing both Harry and Ginny, which they returned, and then stealing a
kiss from Rose's surprised lips and tried to get Hermione but she shyly
moved back, and then Kairi was gone leaving Harry and the three girls
alone.
"You have some weird friends, but I like her, she's fun," Rose commented
while Harry could only nod in agreement.
"Is it weird that I think Dark-Kairi is really awesome too?" Ginny asked as
a silence gathered for a moment.
Rose giggled while shaking her head. "Of course not, because she is, but
that's mainly because she put Ronald in his place."
Hermione quivered. "I could feel that energy from downstairs."
"So, who's more powerful?" Rose asked as she turned a smirk to Harry.
"You or Kairi?"
Harry chuckled as he walked passed them towards the stairs leading
down, and with a slight smirk and tensing of muscles it was like gravity
itself forced all three girls to their knees with wide eyes they looked up as
Harry passed them as they could feel something they couldn't decipher –
pure power. It lasted less than a second but left the girls panting for
breath and shaking on their hands and knees before that pressure listed
and Harry had snuck away.
"D-did you have to ask?" Ginny panted out as she pushed herself to sit up
against the wall with Rose staggering to sit next to her moments later
while Hermione looked sick as she crawled to sit opposite.
"I'm guessing that was ki?" Hermione stuttered out as she took some deep
breaths to calm down.
"What is ki exactly?" Ginny asked while Rose turned and looked to
Hermione in question too.
Hermione rolled her eyes as her breathing calmed. "Do you two ever read
anything that a teacher doesn't force on us?" she asked and their looks
said everything. "Well, I think ki, chakra, and chi are all the same thing,
or at least very similar. I'll call it ki for now. Its lifeforce energy to put it
in simple terms. Its normally associated with Eastern Martial Arts. I read
about some magic like techniques you can use that they call, Martial
Artes… spelt differently, with an e after the t in arts," Hermione
interrupted with a sheepish shrug as she saw the rebuttal coming. "I
thought it was kind of silly, Luna conspiracy sort of stuff at the time as I
couldn't imagine anyone being that strong before. I stumbled across the
book while trying to help you with the tournament during our fourth
year… it was kind of extremely well written," she said sheepishly looking
to Rose. "I would normally put a book like that back down, but its not
that easy to stumble across well written books in the Magical World, as
they like to make things more complicated than they are, just to seem
cleverer than they are, so it was interesting even if it didn't have much in
the way of Martial Artes techniques, just talked about a few simple things
but I didn't even try out of curiosity as I would never be strong or fit
enough to pull them off even if I could use ki."
"So, Hogwarts actually has books on stuff like this?" Rose asked in awe as
her lips turned into a wide smile. "I can't wait to see what Harry can
actually teach us!"
"Yeah," Hermione agreed as she pulled herself up to her feet. "Anyway,
I'm going to see if breakfast is done. I'm kind of hungry. I'll see you when
you get there," she laughed with a surprising lightness as she knew her
friends well enough that they would be procrastinating for a while so left
them alone as she headed downstairs.
Rose smiled as she pulled Ginny's right arm around her shoulder and
leaned on her friend while Ginny smiled and snuggled into her friend in
return. "So, does Kairi have devil wings under her clothes?" Rose asked
while giving her friend a sweet smile.
Ginny rolled her eyes as she kissed her friend's cheek and slid from her
and to her feet. "No, but she has some really amazing tits," she said
smugly while offering her hand. "Harry told me he knows… a couple of
cutie-pies you might like though!"
Rose took her friends hand and allowed herself to be pulled up. "A
couple?" Rose asked in surprise and delight.
"Yeah, wouldn't tell me the details, but whispered something to Kairi, and
she thought it was a great idea," Ginny agreed while shrugging and
hugging to her friends left arm, holding it tight to her body.
"So, by a couple, does Harry mean two dates?" Rose asked before licking
her lips, "or two dates at the same time?"
Ginny shrugged as she linked her fingers through her friends' hand and
held her tightly. "Who knows what kind of weirdo friends he might have
just for you," Ginny said impishly as she pulled her friend after her and
down the stairs to the first floor. "Maybe he has some sexy twins for you,
two girls, no-no-no, two boys," she suggested smugly while Rose blushed
brightly while thinking about how naughty either of those things were.
"Or, twins, but a boy and girl…" Ginny snickered gleefully as it looked
like Rose found that thought most appealing before she realised
something.
"Don't perv on me and Harry at the same time, Ginevra!" Rose said while
Ginny snickered. "But I will admit two cute twins like that would be…
extremely sexy, but I doubt Harry would find some weirdo twins like that
for me, silly."
"Rosette! Ginny!" Mrs. Weasley interrupted from the stairs from the
ground floor to first, causing them to pause, but she didn't seem to have
been listening in from the kind smile she wore so they let out breaths.
"Breakfast will be ready in ten minutes, could you fetch June and
Gabrielle while you're there, please?"
"Sure, Mrs. Weasley!" Rose agreed as she pulled Ginny to change
direction down the first-floor corridor and to June and Gabrielle's room.
Rose knocked on the door. "June! Gabby!" Rose called out. "Breakie will
be ready in a minute."
The door opened and Gabrielle stood there in her knickers and bra with
eyepatch looking like she was fresh and happy for the day, and cute and
someday likely sooner rather than later likely going to make June a really
happy girl. Though, Rose internally shrugged that thought as Gabrielle
already pampered June with ridiculous amounts of attention, love, and
affection, so it would only get better if June accepted more from her best
friend.
"Gabby" June complained as she was sat on one of the two beds in her
Hogwarts uniform. "I could have answered the door. You need to hurry
up and finish getting dressed silly, and especially not be answering the
door in your undies!" she playfully reprimanded while giggling shyly.
"But it is only, Rosette and Ginevra," Gabrielle said while she got back to
her Hogwarts uniform and the rest of her clothes while Ginny closed the
door after them, just in case.
Rose sighed as she was a little surprised as Kir, Harry's snake familiar
pushed himself up and curled up around Rose and Ginny. "That pale bird
girl is a strange one!" the snake said in his strangely childlike voice, and
once more Rose wondered whether she imagined the voice in a more
human way.
"What did that silly snake say about me?" Gabrielle asked with a pout
while doing up her skirt. She had likely seen the way he seemed to have
pointed her way with his head. "I know he said something about me," she
added while continuing to pout cutely.
"That you should hurry up!" June quickly said in case either her sister or
Ginny told her the truth.
"I didn't say that!" Kir said. "Hey, June, you do know I understand your
human talk?"
"I think she just didn't want to tell Gabby that you said she was strange,"
Rose whispered in parseltongue. "Plus, you kind of called her a bird girl."
"But she has the scent of an avion," Kir said thoughtfully. "I've met other
bird girls, but none of them looked like humans… so she's strange… oh,
and her lust for June is really weird, but then my human carries the scent
of monkey and takes multiple females to nest at the same time, so I
suppose that's not too strange, even though I know that's not quite
normal human behaviour when mating."
"What's he saying now?" Gabrielle asked as the cutie was fully dressed
and tying her last shoe while June was blushing sweetly and hoping no-
one related Kir's words – word for word.
"Says you smell of birds and Harry smells of monkey," Rose said while
shrugging.
Gabrielle frowned with a nod. "Well, I am a veela and Harry is human, so
that's not exactly inaccurate, is it?" she asked thoughtfully.
"Do I smell of monkey?" Rose asked while turning to Kir.
"Reptile," he answered to her surprise.
"I think that's you," she said while the snake looked surprised like he
wasn't sure before he looked like he would have shrugged if he had
shoulders. Rose laughed and scratched him under the chin.
"I wish I had fingers," Kir said to her surprise. "Fingers look like they
would be useful. If you ever find some magic so I can grow some hands,
give me a shout. I asked Harry, and he said I'm a magical snake, so I
should become an animagus, and I haven't had any luck turning into a
human, so I don't think it works like that."
Rose burst out laughing with Ginny while June was giggling and
Gabrielle pouted more as she stood. "Can someone translate?" Gabrielle
asked hopefully as she wanted in on the joke. Therefore, June while still
giggling told Gabrielle what Kir said and the small veela rolled her eyes.
"Its not unheard of. There are lots of legends of animals taking on human
form from all over the world, and if magical humans can turn into
animals…?" she shrugged. "You should keep it up, and maybe, someday,
it will work, so be more human about it. Humans can be very stubborn,"
Gabrielle said while petting the snake on the head before grabbing June's
hand and pulling her from the room with a simple: 'come on' to Rose and
Ginny.
"On evaluation, I think I like the strange bird girl!" Kir said with a nod
while Rose and Ginny laughed with him this time and left the room
following after the younger girls. "You must teach her parseltongue!" he
added which somehow caused them to laugh more while he could only
roll his dark eyes at them.

Express King
"Good morning June-ee-pie!" Harry greeted June as she skipped into the
kitchen with Gabrielle where Harry sat while Mrs. Weasley was plating
up some delicious breakfast and Fleur was sitting the other end reading
the paper and drinking from her coffee cup with Bill having returned and
playing with a spoon in his tea while looking distracted, but he did look
up and smile a little as the girls entered. "And this must be your
delightful bestie?" Harry continued to ask while smiling and shaking the
surprised blonde girl's hand as she was half hanging off June's arm.
Gabrielle started and looked him over. "I-it's nice to meet you, Professor!"
she quickly said shyly. "And, thank you very much for rescuing my dear,
June and bringing her home safely," she said while bowing her head in
gratitude.
"That's a big brother's mission, to look out for his adorable sisters!" Harry
said with a shrug. "Even when they've been naughty girls like these
adorable red heads," Harry said gesturing Rose and Ginny as they entered
the kitchen diner with blushes and sheepish grins before the four of them
took their seats as a few more people started turning up to help with
getting to the train station, not that they needed too.
"Harry, erm," Hermione started as she sat opposite him and fidgeted
slightly with her food while Harry looked to her and Mrs. Weasley
offered her a look of reprimand. "Well, I-I mean, Professor," she corrected
while he shrugged as he wasn't too fussed over such silly details. "Well,
can you sense people or something without someone projecting power?"
she asked in embarrassment. "I mean sometimes… you just…?" she
trailed off, unable to quite articulate what she wanted to say fully.
Harry laughed as he interrupted. "Can do," he agreed to their surprise.
"Everyone's magic, or energy feels different if you think about it… it's like
'the scent'," he said baffling everyone but Gabrielle, as she was
surprisingly nodding along in agreement.
"I do not know about sensing peoples magic," Gabrielle said smartly. "But
I understand the scent of a person as my sense of smell is greater than a
human… everyone smells differently. I don't mean they smell bad or
anything," she said with a sheepish smile as she could see them all
thinking it, "but even humans can pick up on it. Sometimes you'll take a
disliking to someone based on scent alone and not realise it, even if they
smell good, and the reverse of that can be true too."
"Well, somebody knows their stuff," Harry praised with a small smile.
"But she is essentially correct when it comes to scents. Sensing magic and
energy, is rather similar, and just like with your natural scent, you can
only cover up the 'flavour' of your energy, but everyone is different –
even twins – or animals – even the trees and flowers… apparently as I'm
told you have to be something beyond special to be able to pull off
recognising the flow of energy from one tree to the next. I can tell the
difference between certain genres of plants like plants from harsh
environments or those that live under water, but not down to the
individual."
"Will you teach us things like that during class?" Rose asked while she
was eating breakfast as Mrs. Weasley went around loading up plates, and
surprisingly, Rose was looking ridiculously eager to learn, which was
somewhat out of character.
Harry chuckled while shrugging as he finished the last of his food and
waved off Mrs. Weasley with a polite smile as she offered seconds. "Yes
and no… once you get a sense of your own energies during my class, you
shall stumble across the power yourself… it's not something you can
really be taught, but honed by putting in the effort. Some of you will be
better at it than others and be able to pick it up fairly well, but be
warned; many people learn to supress their power, for which you will
never be able to sense their full strength unless they show you, and even
then, many people can push their levels to further heights beyond their
base level."
"Like you did in the hall upstairs?" Ginny asked eagerly.
Harry smiled and shook his head. "Such naivety," he said whimsically,
which made the three girls who had felt it pale.
"Then what about Kairi?" Rose asked thoughtfully.
Harry just shrugged. "That was her being rather restrained," he said with
another shrug as even Mrs. Weasley paused to show surprise and
confusion before she carried on bustling around the kitchen, as she had
no real interest.
"So, anyway, are you getting the train with us still?" asked Hermione to
change the subject as people were listing in.
"I am," Harry agreed. "I informed McGonagall and Dumbledore at the
meeting, about what I needed for my class, and gave them a catalogue so
they said they'll get it all sorted for me, which was cool of them, but they
wanted a few extra teachers on the train this year anyway. I did
originally think I would just get everything I needed during the first
couple of weeks, but they insisted they would get everything I need, and
everything sorted for me before my first class since we have a whole
spare day."
"That's good, then, you can sit with us," said Hermione. "You'll get to
meet Draco Malfoy when he makes his annual stop at our compartment
to annoy us."
"Draco Malfoy," Harry said rolling that name over his tongue. "Ah, you
mean Bellatrix's nephew?" he asked and she nodded. "I see… I met him
when I was putting that child attacking werewolf down. Saved him and
his mum from a mysterious fire that got a little out of hand while trying
to capture Bellatrix. I'm sure he'll be a good boy and behave himself
now."
"I very much doubt that!" Mad-Eye Moody interrupted as he clumped
over with a sneering grin and leaned against the wall behind them.
"Arrogance that family has in abundance, but nothing a few slaps
wouldn't cure – but since this isn't fifty years ago where that might have
been the way things were done; if twerps don't stop being twerps, take
away all of their twerp-time."
Ginny sniggered. "If that's the case then Harry… I mean Professor King,"
she corrected at her mums glare and rolled her eyes. "Professor King will
be giving detentions constantly to Malfoy. I don't think he understands
the meaning: 'stop being a stupid prat'."
Harry sighed sadly, "I've met plenty of idiots like that; no matter how
many times they lose, get the crap beat out of them, get made to look
foolish, et cetera., they still come back for more, still thinking they're
great and a god's gift to everybody."
"That describes Malfoy's opinion of himself perfectly," said Rose while
grinning as her empty plate was taken, and she took her brother's arm.
"So, when are we getting to the station because if we don't hurry," she
said thoughtfully looking at her watch. "I should go get my things," she
quickly added and she wasn't the only one as Ginny, June, and Gabrielle
charged out after her.
"I thought ahead," Hermione said sheepishly. "My trunks waiting in the
Entrance Hall, but where are your things?"
Harry shrugged as a white light flicked from his right fingers and a pair
of light sunglasses splashed into his hand before throwing them and
everyone seemed to watch as they span through the air and splashed
away into that same light.
"Pretty good trick, King," Moody appraised. "Pocket dimension," he said
even surprising Harry and causing the old man to laugh. "Used to be
taught at Hogwarts from what I know. I taught myself, but even I can't
pull off tricks like that. But come on everyone who's travelling, we can
wait for the others in the hall."
Soon everybody was in the Entrance Hall of Grimauld Place, and
everyone's trunks had been shrunk and placed in their pockets where
those 'underage' would be able to unshrink them once back on magical
grounds, or Hogwarts since they wouldn't need anything until school
anyway.
Harry smirked as he had June holding his left arm tight with Kir curled
around her, and Gabrielle cuddling onto her. In Harry's other arm he had
both Ginny and Rose while Rose had grabbed Hermione's hand and
pulled her closer.
"Can you manage, five?" asked Mr. Weasley worriedly looking to Harry.
"Barely an inconvenience," Harry agreed with a chuckle as invisible lines
of energy coursed and then they were gone in a soft swish. They
appeared out of the way on platform nine and three quarters with fifteen
minutes to spare, and out of the way of all the people rushing around
luckily, as Harry tried to make sure he couldn't possibly end up between
two fighting forces again like last time.
"You ladies, good?" Harry asked while they nodded.
"That was certainly more comfortable than anyone who has taken me
before," Gabrielle said with a sigh as she and June pulled back and
shared a grin.
"Are you okay?" Fleur appeared with them a moment later.
"Yes, we're fine!" Gabrielle replied while rolling her stunning blue eyes.
"You didn't wait for the countdown?" demanded Moody as the rest of
their guard appeared with them.
"Countdown?" Harry asked while looking confused. "Did you tell me you
wanted to do a countdown?"
"Oh?" Moody said while the others all looked exasperated, as that wasn't
the first time for Moody to forget to clue people in, and most of them
were pretty sure they only guessed he wanted to do a countdown, as
Moody was rather predictable to those who had known him for quite
some time. "Well, I guess not, but the guard are here to protect-."
"Anything getting through me…?" Harry asked while shrugging. "It isn't
going to be stopped by a ragtag group of mages like you and company, is
it?"
"Well, no, but still," Moody said with a sigh and muttered something
about young people making him older.
Therefore, after that, they all found a compartment after some farewells
from parents, and Sirius giving Harry some advice about kicking
Slytherin arse.
"Even the cute girls?" Harry asked while cupping over his chest and Sirius
burst out laughing while Ginny and Rose rolled their eyes and laughed
while Hermione, June, and Gabrielle were blushing brightly as they also
got the joke, but Gabrielle and June were trying to not be caught
snickering at such a naughty joke.
"This is a bit nerve racking," Harry said as he slumped down in their
compartment with a content sigh. "Though," he said thoughtfully looking
around the compartment, "getting to hang out with five cute girls… four
of which are off the table… so back to being nervous and having to fake
supreme confidence."
"Fake it?" replied Ginny cheekily rolling her eyes. "You get to make
everyone do what you want, 'Professor'."
Harry chuckled. "Be that as it may, Ginevra… you'll have to call me
Professor more often to pique my ego."
"Oh, Professor King," Ginny retorted as she pushed herself up against
him. "If your ego is piqued any further there will be no room for the rest
of us in here," she said causing a round of laughter before she slumped
back down next to him with Gabrielle and June the other side of her and
Hermione and Rose sitting opposite.
"You may just have a point there," he replied while everyone laughed and
began enjoying themselves, as the train began its voyage, so they started
off with playing some boardgames Harry had within his pocket
dimension.
"How much can you fit in there?" Rose asked curiously. "You seem to
carry a lot of junk."
"Oh, well, it's different for everyone," Harry said shrugging. "I've heard of
some people storing their whole houses inside their pocket dimensions…
there are methods, items, and magics you can use to increase the size,
but I never really needed too. Some people have small spaces, which
would be like a cupboard, and some garage sized spaces, or even bigger. I
think the average is probably somewhat smaller than this compartment,
but not by much… the only down side is you can't put living things
inside… or fresh food types… I think it's because the pocket dimensions
likely can't take biological life – or biological things, possibly, but wood
seems to be fine, and processed foods are good too, sweets, sure, teas,
coffee… to be honest, I think the rules are a bit on the weird side, and a
bit inconsistent, but according to Arctic… you'd love him Hermione,
loves books, and likes to use his head – well, he says it makes sense, and
tried to explain it to some of us dunderheads, but it went way over our
heads, as expected, too sciencey."
However, neither Hermione, nor anyone else had the chance to reply, as
in a sudden pull and slide the compartment door slid open, and a bleach
blonde boy with pale narrowed face stood in the doorway with two huge
ogre-like boys either side of him.
"So, Potter, too chicken to travel without a bodyguard!" the blonde boy
sneered, but he was looking uncertain and showed fear, as he really
didn't know how to react or be anymore, especially since he knew what
this young man could do.
"Actually, allow me to introduce myself," Harry said as he stood, and he
was quite a bit taller, and broader, and much more intimidating. "My
name is Harry King, and I'm Rosette's long lost twin brother, and newly
assigned Defence Teacher… so to you that's Professor King. I told you
that you have choices before you do something stupid you cannot come
back from. Don't choose wrong, Draco, now leave and think about what
you have been doing, bothering people, trying to stake claim like a dog
pissing on a tree… and if I catch you walking the halls of this train and
bothering fellow students again, I will give you detention the first time.
The second time I shall take five hundred House Points from Slytherin,
from each of you once we get to Hogwarts, and I can only hope that
those who want to do well at school understand why they were missing
points before classes had even started. Understand?"
"Yes," Draco whimpered out as he felt just a trickle of Harry's power.
"Yes, what?" Harry demanded coolly.
"Yes… yes, Sir!" He answered a stepped out of the compartment as Harry
shooed him away.
"Why'd you let him do that?" one of the thugs asked while the door fell
closed. "Let's go find someone else," he finished as Draco began walking
away.
"That was awesome," Rose declared under her breath. "I've never seen
Malfoy looking so scared of a teacher other than McGonagall. That prat
always gets away with everything because all but McGonagall go to
Snape with complaints about him, and Snape either ignores them or lets
him off."
"I am not that kind of teacher," Harry said while shrugging. "I have no
care to hold favour of anyone, nor hold a grudge. As long as you don't act
like a piece of shit and put people in danger, I don't care what you do."
"You going to punish me too, Professor?" Ginny asked with a cute purr to
her voice as she was doing fairly well at stretching the professor angle.
"Only if you're naughty enough!" Harry agreed smugly.
"Please don't!" Hermione and Rose cried out together.
However, Harry surprised them as he stood with a sad smile. "Well if
you'll excuse me? I have a threat to go through with," he said exiting the
compartment.
"Malfoy," Ginny elaborated for June and Gabrielle as they looked for an
answer.
Harry walked down the train, and spotted Malfoy standing with his wand
held limply to his side as his two flunkies were with their wands out, and
a small blonde girl was curled into a ball on the floor crying, and looked
like she could possibly be in Ginny's year at the least.
Malfoy froze the moment it happened, and Harry walked past him and
the flunkies stood still as Harry crouched down and gently scooped the
girl into his arms. The three boys dropped their wands as the magical
focuses were the force of Harry's ere, and heat up, and if they hadn't
dropped them, they would have likely exploded.
"Ever, again!" Harry said in almost a whisper. "You will each be serving
detention this weekend – all weekend, and if you dare to ever do
something like this ever again, either one of you… you'll have every
weekend of yours in detention for the rest of your Hogwarts careers, and
I will take one thousand points from Slytherin, each! Do you
understand?" Harry demanded the last.
The three boys nodded feverishly. "Yes, Sir!" they squeaked out, as they
felt dread and terror flooding them just from being in Harry King's
presence.
Harry smiled and the pressure they felt left as he turned and carried his
prize away. The girl had moved a little and stared at Harry with some
amazing sky-blue eyes with a dazed-far-away look that was captivating
and sweet as she brushed away her tears.
"What happened," Ginny asked worriedly with Rose while Rose opened
the door and let them in.
"Luna, are you alright?" Rose asked weakly as she sat back down with
Harry carefully placing Luna into the space between her and Hermione
where all the girls looked at her in concern.
Luna nodded gently. "It's just my ankle," she pointed to her right foot.
"Well, Madam Pomfrey will sort that out," interrupted Hermione quickly.
However, Harry ignored them, keeling he carefully pulled Luna's trainer
and sock off, placing her foot in his lap. "Blessed be thy nature. Truest of
life. Recover!" Harry muttered as his fingers were gentle on Luna's
swollen ankle, and a soft green light flashed and span from Harry's
fingers, and around Luna's foot and ankle before fading away leaving an
angry red swell nowhere to be found as her ankle looked normal again.
"How does that feel?" Harry asked while smiling up at Luna.
Luna looked at Harry with her mouth hanging open as she wiggled her
foot, "it's fixed," she said in shock, as she was so surprised that she could
only watch Harry slipping her sock and shoe back onto her small foot,
leaving her with deeply flushed cheeks.
"I'm glad," Harry replied while he slid up onto the seat opposite, between
June and Ginny.
"What the hell was that?" demanded Hermione after a few more moments
of quiet while staring at Luna's foot still. "I've seen you use a few weird
magic's, but that was… that wasn't medical magic like we know it…
that…?" Hermione was lost for words seeing something like that up close.
"Blessed magic is just simple stuff," Harry said shrugging. "I just called
upon the spirits of nature, just forcing Luna's own body to recover
straight away using my own magic as an energy source."
"Well, we point and wave our wands!" Rose said thoughtfully while the
others nodded. "Then we kind of just say a word, or some words in Latin,
and magic usually does some magic-y stuff."
"Exactly," agreed Hermione. "Well, kind of – there is more to it than that,
but we don't just ask for some spirits to help us."
"Well, I don't use a wand, do I?" Harry retorted amusedly. "So… you don't
channel through the spirits that you need?" he asked in curiosity as he
wasn't that sure how their casting magic worked even though he could do
a little here and there by accident without a wand. "So, you don't
honestly think your magic is the only type of magic in all the world, and
with all of our myths and legends; that are actually true – and then with
other legends that may have been lost to time?"
"Well, now you're making me feel stupid thinking like that," agreed
Hermione in surprise and embarrassment. "But… that kind of seems silly
and I have read a few things about things like artes, but I've never seen
anything go into too much detail on things like that, so maybe we just
use this wand stuff because it can kind of do lots of things and it's
easier?"
"So, none of you can even do this?" he asked as he clicked the fingers of
his right hand and with a spark of red a fireball curled and curved
burning within his palm. The girls all shook their heads. "Wow. I guess I
have a lot of teaching to do if you can't even do something as simple as a
fireball."
"Wow, so, is that what we'll be learning in your class," Rose asked
excitedly as she tried not to think that she and her friends were supposed
to already know things like that, or would have if they had been taught
by different mage.
"Yeah, eventually, I guess I'll have too," he agreed with a smile as he
snuffed the fireball out by closing his hand. "But there are all kinds of
different magic's and abilities people can learn. I'll be concentrating on
your physical needs first or you'll never be able to do much of it, as
physical strength does translate into magic too."
"So – what other magic's might we learn?" Rose asked timidly as her head
was spinning further than before as she had never thought she could
really learn to do the things Harry could do.
"Well," he mumbled thoughtfully, "the pocket dimension is a very useful
magic, and it seems the school stopped teaching it, so that will be tops as
it's pretty easy. There's also tune magic, but useless unless you're good
with music and wouldn't hurt if you can hold a tune with your voice too.
There's crystal magic, which is about storing magic, spells, barriers,
wards; that sort of thing in crystals. There's ritual magics, but it's very
difficult and hard going to become a sage, and only those who are really
devoted to the art become Grand Sage's, or get that far; it's all rune,
candle, chanting stuff, real clever mages, but they make some pretty good
magical items. The world is full of different things, magic or otherwise."
"A-are we… I mean witches and wizards-?"
"Casters?" Harry asked and interrupted Hermione. "Wizard in truth is
normally only given to the wise old Dumbledore type of mage. Witch, is
also normally given out to well… I think McGonagall would come
closest. Strong willed, talented older woman, and normally wise enough
to help out younger generations – I guess you could say it's the female
equivalent to a wizard, probably why it stuck so much."
"You didn't mention this before?" Rose asked befuddled.
"They're only titles," Harry said while shrugging. "Nobody really cares,
and I've heard plenty others who call you witches and wizards, and
others who are a stickler for technicalities… but Casters don't have to
stick to Casting Magic's like a Sage doesn't have to just stick to Sage
Magic's. Sometimes you'll just stumble across a different branch of magic
and think some of it is useful enough – or you'll come across an arte or
technique that just sounds cool," he chuckled while shrugging. "Or maybe
you'll make a contract with a god, or godly being, or whatever they really
are, and regret it.
"My summon, or Eidolon, or Shōkanjū, or whatever you want to call them,
Odin, isn't a regret thankfully," Harry said thoughtfully, "but he was
named for the Norse God," he added while shrugging as their eyes
widened. "But he was created… or brought into existence or whatever, by
Thor, which is why all the thunder and lightning when I summon him."
"So… gods are a thing?" Hermione asked worriedly.
Harry laughed and shrugged. "There are powerful beings in the world,
and I suppose they could be considered gods or godly, but I've never met
anyone on Earth I would consider a god," he said while shrugging as it
was technically true. "Normally when you meet the 'divine', shall we say?
You pull their domain to you or you go to them, but who knows what
these things really are, best to go with the flow sometimes? Anyway,
before you ask, I couldn't say whether we have a maker so to speak… but
none of the myths about the gods are completely accurate, mostly it's
believed that they are truths twisted with time, and I… doubt they're all
still alive, maybe some remnants of them, I couldn't say? Godly stuff isn't
something I've cared too much to investigate, but I'm sure the Council
and plenty other magical groups investigate stuff like this, as they sure
love sticking their noses into things...-"
"So…" Hermione interrupted thoughtfully. "If… if this Mystics Council,
Rose told me about has so many mage or mystics, or whatever, can't they
help us with Voldemort and the Death Eaters?"
"Oh, they do," Harry nodded knowingly. "Whenever you hear of a Caster
disappearing or being killed that was believed to be a Death Eater, it was
likely the Mystics Council was involved, but as you no doubt know, it's
not easy to catch up with those slippery bastards, as they don't stay put
long enough, and the Death Eaters may be stupid enough to believe
they're unflappable, Voldemort is in his position for a reason, and no
doubt is the reason tracking their teleportation is difficult to non-
existent."
"Actually, that makes sense," nodded Hermione thoughtfully. "There was
a Death Eater attack on a small village a few months ago. Only a few
innocent people died and when Aurors arrived they found twenty-four
dead Death Eaters. From the reports it said they were massacred by
unknown destructive magic. Though, Tonks, an Auror friend of ours, said
they made it sound worse than it was."
"Exactly," Harry smirked. "Some heroic Bringers… I mean Law Bringers…
cops… magical cops… Aurors. That's what the council calls them, Law
Bringers, but most people just refer to them as police or cops anyway."
"I like it," Luna interrupted looking half lost but not seeming to mind.
"Are you a hero too… you must be, right, erm?"
"Harry King," Harry introduced himself smilingly, even though she looked
like she knew his name already, it was polite anyway.
"Professor Harry King," Ginny piped in smugly.
"I see, Professor King," Luna agreed with a soft smile.
"And I'm not a hero," Harry said while shrugging. "I just occasionally do
some heroic things when no one else is around to do them instead. I'm
often in the right place at the wrong time."
Ginny smirked. "A bit modest aren't you...?" she said smugly as he was
the hero of four of the girls in the compartment so far.
Harry shrugged again. "'Hero is a label you cannot take for yourself…" he
said looking thoughtful. "A hero goes above and beyond what should be
expected of them. Heroes are selfless. I'm not that. You cannot take a job
being a hero, and you cannot go out one day and say you're going to earn
the title of 'hero', and I wouldn't want it if you could. I'm just a normal
guy who's good with magic and ki, who just happened to save the day a
few times here and there."
"A few?" hissed Kir poking his head from where he had been happily
kipping around June's neck like a scarf. "What about last year? You saved
the world from being torn apart by that stupid hunk of rock some idiot
ancient beings left lying around?"
"You saved the world?" asked Rose in amazement as she Ginny and June
had gasped in wide eyed shock.
"What are you talking about?" Gabrielle asked in confusion.
"Kir said that Harry saved the world from being blown up," piped in June
helpfully. "What happened?"
Harry sighed and rolled his eyes like it was no big deal. "Err, well… to
make a long story short, evil brood, powerful end of the world obelisk,
and I banished him to another dimension, using the obelisks power
before he could kill us all."
"What's a brood?" Hermione asked while shivering at the cool look Harry
held.
"Dragonkin!" Harry answered.
"Oh," Hermione replied in surprise. "I didn't know they still existed," she
said turning to the others as only Luna looked like she understood.
"Dragonkin are like… dragons who can take human form."
"Whoa," Rose said in awe. "That must have been pretty scary."
Harry shrugged while looking unconcerned. "I guess it was at the time.
But you do know, Sahara's a brood, don't you!?" he asked while watching
his sisters' eyes widen, and found some humour in it.
"I would have never given it a thought," Rose said while thinking about
that gorgeous girl.
"How bad was this dragonkin?" asked Luna interestedly.
Harry shrugged. "A lot worse than Voldemort on a scale of Voldemort
wanting to conquer and him wanting to subjugate and destroy. He
thought that he could use the obelisks power to force the worlds
obedience… it's an impossible spell no matter how strong you are, and in
the end, he was going to end up destroying the world. I almost lost,"
Harry said while looking lost in thought for a moment and the girls could
only stare at him in shock. "He was a lot more powerful than me. He only
lost by chance. I dared take the risk. I drained the obelisk of its magic
into a spell of my own making, and created a dimensional prison to lock
him away in an empty realm… it took me weeks to recover from that. I
thought I was a gonna. I think I'm still reeling from the aftermath to be
honest," he chuckled as he stretched a little.
"So, Voldemort isn't much to worry about in the grand scheme of things,"
said Hermione terrified.
"Exactly," agreed Harry. "Well, kind of… but still… could be worse. I
doubt I would have much difficulty in an upfront fight just Voldemort
and me, but he does have a dark army of arseholes, and given some of
them have to be more than fodder, so, we shouldn't let our guard down."
"Ping!" Gabrielle said suddenly. "Title Achieved: Hero!"
"Casters play video games?" Harry asked while Gabrielle looked smug.
"No, but I like to read books," she corrected smugly. "And the muggles
have the best fantasy and Sci-Fi books if you look around the bookstores,"
she said smirkingly.
"I'm lost," Rose said sheepishly while her little sister looked smug as she
had obviously borrowed some recommended reading from her bestie.
It was sometime later that the train finally came to a stop, and Harry
stood, giving his sisters a kiss on the cheek each and stealing one from
Gabrielle and Luna too, before giving Ginny a kiss on the lips, and then
he hurried out of the train and it was somewhat dark outside, so they
didn't see how Harry slipped away but gone he was.
"Maybe he can fly?" Gabrielle suggested.
Rose, June, and Ginny shook their heads remembering a harrowing
experience for which they wished he could fly.
"Welcome, " the old man, Albus Dumbledore chimed with a warm
wizardly smile and arms open in welcome once the school was seated
within the huge Great Hall of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Wizardry.
Rose looked up at the high table where Dumbledore stood in front at a
podium. She was sat with her friends, and even invited Luna to sit at the
Gryffindor table with them since she was still being pampered to make
her feel better after having to deal with Malfoy bullying her. Talking of
which, Malfoy didn't look so big sitting at the Slytherin table anymore.
"I hope you all had a nice, enjoyable Christmas holiday?" Dumbledore
continued as he let the students have a few moments, since they were
still excited from the holiday, and with everything that happened the day
before, so many were still a little hyper. "I have a few changes I would
like to discuss before the feast… first, Defence against the Dark Arts will
not be taught for the rest of the year."
Dumbledore paused as he allowed the angry shouts and hisses, before it
died down at his gentle look of reprimand.
"Instead, we have a new class, which we have called Defensive Combat,"
Dumbledore paused again for them to digest what he told them, an
amused smile on his face. Suddenly most of the hall erupted into excited
murmurs and cheer.
"Yes," Dumbledore continued. "It is believed that… perhaps we should
teach you to actually defend yourselves by learning to fight," he said and
a lot of students nodded eagerly. "Also, your new Professor, the Defensive
Combat Professor, or I suppose, DC Professor to not be such a mouthful,
-" he paused for a few nervous giggles, "has asked that I rearrange some
classes to make sure he has much more time in the days to teach you.
"Therefore, first years and second years will be one class for Defensive
Combat, as well third and fourth years another, and fifth, sixth and
seventh years the last class. I ask that you please give Professor King your
full respect. I would rather not have him use you for the rest of the
classes target practice. Madam Pomfrey has enough to deal with, with
certain troublemakers prone to injuring themselves," he said to some
laughs, while Rose pretended, she couldn't see Dumbledore's eyes
flickering her way.
"Also," the old man continued amusedly. "Professor King is very young. In
fact, he's younger than some sixth years. However, he is very talented,
and I'm sure most of you will get along with him brilliantly…" he
chuckled. "Well, please welcome to our school, Professor Harry King…"
Harry walked briskly from the Great Hall doors where he had been
laughing, now however wore a straight face with his power and strength
calmly radiating from his body, holding the attention of all. The girls all
looked faint for reasons he always found amusing, especially using the
trick he was. Harry walked slowly, but not too slow, but he shone
confidence, and his footsteps went unheard within the quiet hall.
"Thank you, Professor," Harry said as he reached the front of the hall, and
he smiled facing the students, he stood at Dumbledore's podium as the
old man returned to his seat. "Well, anyway. I have a few things to say
before we stuff our faces with food." Harry chuckled as a few boys looked
at their plates as if to say, 'they were starving'.
"Well," Harry continued. "I can be your best friend or your worst enemy. I
would rather it be the former though, as I've already had to give
detentions to Mr. Malfoy and his two friends for bullying on the train," he
said and paused for a moment as people searched out the boy. "I believe
that they will not enjoy their Saturday and Sunday as they shall be
scrubbing the grimiest corners of the school without the use of magic or
anything 'special'; they will use rags, soap, and water, and maybe with it
learn some humility.
"I gave them a warning before that for bothering students," Harry said
coolly. "For the most part I don't care what you do as long as you are not
bothering, harassing, or bullying someone else. Therefore, one warning,
then your weekend; then I start punishing your whole house, by five
hundred points minimum," he said while the students looked horrified. "If
that doesn't teach bullies, maybe I'll have the gul to put your whole house
in detention with you… I'm sure your house would be willing to share in
your punishments."
Harry waited while the students looked around and eyes lingered on their
most troublesome students, but not too many stayed for long, which
meant troublemakers, not bullies, but Harry did make a mental note of
those who might be up to a spot of bullying. Harry wondered whether
they had the guts to try him, and kind of hoped they did.
"Okay, I'm glad that's cleared up," Harry said with a smile and the
students all seemed to shudder relief. "Now, to just a few small rules for
my class. There is to be no wands out in my class unless I say so, so until
an event when that might happen, they are to be placed in your
schoolbags, which will be kept in a locker. Anyone caught with a wand
out in my class without permission will have fifty points removed from
your house, a weekend's detention and their wand confiscated until they
have properly apologised to their whole class." The students' gasped, but
Harry only grinned in amusement. "My class is not just about spells or
curses, it's about fighting, combat and strength. You will address me in
class correctly, outside class I don't care. Also, during class I would hope
that all the students in my class will show one another a modicum of
respect, or maybe Dumbledore's target practice punishment will be fun…
well, fun for everyone but you. You can hate each other all you want, but
leave it outside my class."
The students stared at Harry in horror as he retreated to the teachers
table, grinning smugly and sat next to a giant-sized man.
"Well, err, thank you, Professor King," said Dumbledore nervously from
his seat at the table. Harry had told him he was going to be strict around
two things. His class, and bullying. It was a unique chance to experiment
with some new learning and discipline methods. "Well, let the feast
begin," he said as he sat and the tables piled high with plates of delicious
food of many varieties.
"Hi," said the giant man next to Harry happily as they begun to eat. "I'm
Hagrid. I teach magical creatures."
"Well, it's nice to meet you," replied Harry grinning. "What kinds of
creatures do you prefer? I think dragons are pretty cool myself, but then
one of my best friends is a brood, so I kind of have too."
"I love dragons!" Hagrid said excitedly before frowning, confused.
"Dragonkin are extinct," he said, surprising Harry that he knew about
them, but then, Hagrid was a magical creature's teacher and seemed to be
a dragon-fan.
"Nah," Harry said while shrugging. "They're probably just not big fans of
Casters, you know, being half-giant, I'm sure you understand Casters can
be a little, racist… heck; they're racist towards non-magical humans too."
"How'd ya know, I'm half-giant?" Hagrid asked in shock.
Harry looked around him as the small teacher he met earlier, Professor
Flitwick was listening in while looking amused the other side of Hagrid.
"Is he seriously asking me that?" Harry asked the tiny man. "Mother was
goblin?" Harry said pointing to the man. "Father's human?"
"Okay, I'm impressed," Flitwick said. "The other way around we tend to
be more generously proportioned, more Dwarf-like," he chuckled before
looking up to Hagrid. "Young man knows his stuff, and you're
ridiculously huge compared to all the humans in here, and I'm sure a man
of combat can sense your wilder magical force."
"I'm actually surprised by how calm his magic is," Harry agreed while
giving Hagrid a grin. "No worries man… I would try not to think about
how your dad… with your giantess mum… I have no idea," he said while
Flitwick snorted and Hagrid looked confused.
"How'd you know me dad was human?" Hagrid asked.
Harry shrugged. "It can't be done the other way around," he said before
he chose to change the subject. "Anyway, I was thinking of inviting my
dragonkin friend over for the weekend, as she would love to see the
castle, so you'll get to meet her if she can make it," he said with a smile.
Hagrid smiled and looked excited to meet a dragon, but Harry guessed
everyone had their quirks, and wondered whether he knew any older
single ladies of dragon-blood who was bigger built.
However, all too soon, dinner was over, and Harry stood while
stretching. "Well, I'll see you later. I see some of my friends are waiting,"
he said pointing out Ginny as she was with Luna, holding the sweet
blondes hand. He didn't know where his sisters got to with Hermione and
Gabrielle, but they probably went off to their dorms. Hagrid nodded as
he watched him go, chuckling he could tell he would like that kid.
"Hey Harry," said Ginny, stopping herself from hugging him just about,
she giggled. "I've got to remember, no hugging teachers."
Harry grinned impishly. "Well… you be a good girl then… but, you Luna,
you can be naughty."
Luna smiled widely and took Harry's left hand with her free hand, and he
chuckled as she started leading them from the hall as it was mostly
empty as students hurried away to get to bed after a long night.
"So, where are we going?" Harry asked in confusion as they suddenly
stopped down a corridor and the girls looked confused as they turned to
him.
"To check out your new pad," Ginny said smirkingly. "Luna here, after I
had a little chat with her has something she would like to… give you…
us," she said craftily.
Harry rose his right eyebrow as he could read what went unsaid, and
Ginny was amazing, and he just couldn't wait to see how amazing Luna
could be too, as she looked so cute just waiting, and with that, Harry
took over, leading them onto their destination.
to be continued…
17. Nightmare and Judgement
Bandit King
Chapter 17
Nightmare and Judgement
Harry sat at his desk with his feet up on his desk. He had to hand it to
Hogwarts, as the school looked after its teachers. Harry wore some loose
black training bottoms with a black sleeveless top, and training boots
with his muscles pulling at his clothes. His classroom was almost as big
as the Great Hall with several doors leading off into other rooms with
equipment, and other training areas, one of which was larger than the
class. He had large boxes lining the walls, all with standardised size's
written in black on the sides with training gi's, boots, and weights from
'1lb' (one-pound) to '20lb' (twenty-pound).
The class, for some reason, Harry couldn't understand were, well,
standing outside the door. He wondered why for a moment when he
sheepishly realised, they were probably used to the teacher making them
wait until let in, so chuckling, Harry stood, and walked over and opened
the door.
"Okay, in," Harry said amusedly, gesturing them to enter. "Next time,
once it's time for class, just let yourselves in, and get ready for class," he
said quickly.
The class shuffled in fairly-quietly, and Harry enjoyed the looks he got,
especially from the girls before they were preoccupied with the huge
room with training mats and dummies, and targets, and the corner where
the entrance door was where Harry had a rather oversized desk as
Dumbledore felt the original desk looked much too lost, even though
Harry wouldn't use it for more than resting his feet, and storing junk.
"Right," Harry began clapping his hands to get their attention as he closed
the door after the last of the fifth, sixth, and seventh years. "Those
cabinets there, are where you store your backpacks until the end of
class," he said pointing to a large space lining the corner where his desk
sat with magical lockers to keep their things safe with no need for keys. "I
have you from now until lunch. So, in two hours, if we've finished the
first half of your lesson you will be let out for morning break."
The students all slowly followed suit, even though, some like most
Slytherins grumbled, Harry ignored them as they placed wands into
backpacks if they hadn't already, with Harry's quick reminder, as he
wasn't going to complain before the class started, and locked them away.
"Right now, that's done," Harry continued with a grin. "Those boxes, the
ones with sizes, I want you to each take a gi, and some training boots, in
your preferred size. You can mix and match tops and bottoms if you so
desire, and ladies will find in the ladies' locker room some extra support
that they may need, so feel free. Now, hurry up-."
"But why?" Draco Malfoy interrupted with a timid scowl, but he honestly
looked curious, and the other students who had been inching to have a
look at the gi's paused to see what their new professor would say.
Harry chuckled. "There are boys changing rooms, and girls changing
rooms," Harry said with a smile gesturing to the solid oak doors the other
side of the chamber to each other. "They also have these amazing
inventions called showers… now I'm no genius, Draco…" he said with a
shake of his head. "But after a hard workout where you'll actually have to
use your muscles, you'll start sweating, and want to have a shower, and
I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that I would rather not have you
putting your stinky clothes back on, and going to the rest of your
classes…?"
"Oh," Draco said while looking embarrassed as even a few Slytherins
snickered. "Okay," he muttered, and everybody just watched in
fascination when Malfoy huffed himself over to the medium gi box and
found a pair of bottoms and top in what looked like they would be his
size as he read the label, and though they were like what Harry wore;
these were white and of a thicker material, and had some sleeve to the
tops, which were still short-sleeved.
"Why is it white and not black like yours?" a girl in a Slytherin uniform
asked. She was stunning with light blonde hair tied back to the small of
her back and grey eyes, and looked like she would certainly need some
extra support.
Harry smiled, "if you could introduce yourself first," Harry said
sheepishly. "I'll get the hang of your names in no time, hopefully."
"D-Daphne Greengrass."
"Well, Daphne," Harry began with a smile that made her pale cheeks
pinken. "White is the colour of a beginner. You will also note that our gi
are made of different materials for the same reason. Work hard, and do
not complain, and perhaps you could earn a higher colour, and I could
teach you to put Voldemort in his place, in a one-on-one fight!" he said
which caused a multitude of flinches. "Did that answer your question,
Daphne?"
"Y-yes, Sir," Daphne readily agreed while a slightly younger lookalike to
her appraised Harry with a dark-skinned tomboy the other side with
short dark ruffled hair, and dark eyes, as they steadied Daphne as her
balance seemed off.
"But if you can't shake off me manipulating your senses, you have a long
way to go," Harry said while Daphne looked confused, as she suddenly
stood straight, and rather, looked amazed. "Keep your mind, senses, and
your wits open to everything and anything, but always at your beck and
call, no one else's. Your minds are the greatest weakness your bodies will
ever suffer, but during this class… a healthy body will help keep a
healthy mind.
"Now, get your gi and training boots, and into the changing rooms, and
they will have some lockers just like these ones," Harry said gesturing the
lockers by his desk, "for you to safe keep your belongings, and clothes.
Try not to be too long twitting around with dancing under towels, which
you'll find fresh in each locker for each class. You are being separated by
boys and girls, now get..." he dismissed, making a gesture for them to
leave.
Sighing, Harry flopped back down at his desk, wishing he stole Kir back
from June to talk too. Kir had become rather fast friends with his little
sister, probably convinced her to help him with his fascination with
turning into a human, to make his life easier living with humans when he
didn't have thumbs, or hands for that matter.
Ten minutes after entering the students all filled out of the changing
rooms, and thankfully they all had their gi's on correctly, and the girls
looked like they were all comfortable, so they likely all tried out the
sportswear McGonagall was surprisingly thoughtful enough to pick up
luckily, as one of the women assistances at the shop had mentioned
issues, as Harry being a guy forgot about that. The white gi had a
Hogwarts patch on the right chest side, and the bottoms had a patch on
the left leg, just below the waist, since the school did fund them.
The students stood waiting for Harry on the mats a little further from
Harry's desk, wondering what torment he might inflict. The boots they
wore, as they may have noticed were rather soft, but had soles and
protection, so that they didn't damage their feet on any of the equipment
or Harry might have just left them out if Dumbledore couldn't squeeze a
little extra cash for the extra things Harry wanted.
Harry got up grinning at his students. "Okay, in this class there is no
house distinction unless I'm taking points. I don't want to take them, and
if you behave, and not act like twatwaffles, I will be happy to reward
you," he said to the classes relief. "First," he continued. "I'll give you your
homework," he said approaching a metal box with '5lb' written on it, and
carried the heavy box to the class, dropping it before them with a loud
crash. He opened it, and pulled out a heavy, wrist or ankle weight. He
would like them to wear more, but a few of them would struggle with
five pounds anyway.
"This," Harry began, "is your homework. You are to each wear four of
these… one on each ankle, and one around each wrist. You will wear
them above your gi, but hide them under your robes. You will wear them
every day, all day, when you're sleeping, and when you're in the shower,
at breakfast and weekends, point is, you only take them off to strap them
over your gi, or re-strap them to your bare skin. I don't care how
uncomfortable it becomes, or how annoying, as failing to do so will net
you a loss of house points." He gestured the box as he was amused at
their horrified expressions when they realised, they were as heavy as the
box said.
"How did you lift that whole box?" Malfoy asked in fear, as he held one
with both hands and saw there must have been enough for the whole
class times four. "We can't wear these," he said angrily. "They weigh a
ton."
"Actually," retorted Hermione as she strapped one on her ankle looking
like she wanted to agree with him but couldn't. "It says on the box, five
pounds, which is a little over two and half kilograms, which isn't too
heavy for us to start with, just think there's a box over there full of
weights weighing twenty pounds." Most of the class were just strapping
them on, or helping each other strapping them on as they were easier to
bare once their hands were free, and they weren't so unbalanced by the
straps. However, a small group were refusing like Malfoy.
"Please, last chance, strap on your homework," said Harry. They just
stood fast, not moving, though, to Malfoy's credit he looked like he
wanted too as he looked to see Greengrass and her friends getting on
with it.
"Very well," Harry looked at them all, counting. "Eight hundred points
from Slytherin, four hundred points from Hufflepuff, two hundred points
from Ravenclaw, six hundred points from Gryffindor," he said to their
shock and horror. "Now, one last chance, put on your homework, or I'll
do that again before I dismiss you with a detention every day until you
do your homework."
The Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff quickly grabbed weights and began
strapping them on with all the other Slytherins except for Malfoy and
flunkies, and oddly Ronald Weasley was Gryffindor's exception in
standing his ground.
"You can't take that many points from us," Ronald hissed, and suddenly
he pulled his wand from the waist of his trousers pointing it at Harry.
Malfoy cried out for his flunkies to stop, but they both charged at Harry
with fists pushing forward. Harry caught their fists in the palms of his
hands, and standing taller than them he glared down as they tried to pull
back but Harry's grip was much too tight. They could have stood to learn
a thing or too since they seemed to like throwing their weight around.
"Wand, Weasley, on MY desk!" Harry ordered, and Ronald looked to him,
shocked, shivering, and stepped back, looking for a place to run and hide.
"If I have to take it, I will return it to your mother to deal with making
sure you apologise to your fellow students for disobeying a class rule!"
"No!" Ronald cried out in anger and fear and rose his wand, but Harry
just tossed Malfoy's flunkies to each side where they cried out and stayed
put on the floor. Then as Ronald's wand was lit up with blue light, and
halfway to pointing forward, Harry was in front of Ron, and with a
simple movement of his left hand, he took the wand, and the light died
out.
"Get out of my classroom!" Harry said coldly glaring at Ronald. "You shall
have detention from now until your next class with me, by which time,
you will either put on your homework, or have more detentions because
I'm sure the school would love you scrubbing her in all those grimy
crevices that are hard to reach, and, five hundred points from Gryffindor!
Get out!" Harry demanded and didn't turn until the door was slammed
closed, and placed Ronald's wand away in his desk.
Harry looked at Draco as he was still putting on his Homework, and then
turned to the flunkies. "Five hundred points each from Slytherin from you
two… now, homework, or you can leave and have detentions?" Harry
asked, and the flunkies looked at Draco as he turned from them before
they stormed out of the class after Ronald.
"Right, now we've gotten rid of trouble makers," Harry said with a sigh as
he turned to Malfoy. "We have gotten rid of the troublemakers, haven't
we?" he asked, and Draco quickly nodded his head as he looked like
standing was annoying, but not as much as a small girl with black hair in
a bob. "Tense your muscles more, don't go slack with your arms or you'll
find it harder than it is," he said giving some friendly advice. "Well, first
we're going to be going over some simple stretches, and help limber you
up for some proper excises… if you have any questions about anything
please ask whenever you like, just raise your hand so you're not speaking
over each other."
A boy with mousy brown hair nervously raised his hand, though wobbly-
so.
"Yes, Mr…?"
"C-Creevey, Sir, Colin Creevey!"
"Okay, well what's your question, Colin?" Harry asked.
"Well… with Ron, how did you move so fast?" he nervously asked,
"I trained hard, and hope you shall too," Harry said with a shrug.
"You bastard!"
They were interrupted as the class door was blown off its hinges and
buckled open and Severus Snape stormed in, roaring insanely with drool
frothing at the mouth.
"How dare you think you can treat my house! Slytherin House, like crap,
you pathetic filthy mudblood!
"Avada Kedavra."
Harry was shocked as the green light tore forward in a ripple of light,
heading straight for him, but placed out his left hand, palm splayed while
students screamed, and fell back.
"Blessed be thy power, source of all darkness, chaos in all of order,
Nightmare Shield!"
Just as the curse shrieked towards Harry, a black energy erupted
swallowing the curse from where Harry held his hand out, and then
bursting up and around and out, turning into a creepy bald snake like
man with glowing evil red eyes, and black bellowing robes, and a wand
in hand, facing Severus Snape in cruel glee, like a spectre.
"Severus!" the man hissed sending shivers down everyone's spine.
Several students cried out, panicked, "it's him!"
"It's just my spell; he can't harm anyone but Snape. He can't even interact
with you," said Harry quickly.
"My, L-Lord," said Snape quietly, his wand dropping from his fingers,
clattering to the floor.
"My dear, Severus," hissed Voldemort in a soft whisper as he took a step
forward. "What a pity, nobody likes you; they all hate you… you degust
me; you're a useless spy… I hate you most of all. You can't even pretend
to be nice… don't you understand nice people gain others confidence,
gain power over their weak emotions… hahahaha, but no, you are
useless?"
Snape dropped to his knees in fear. "Please master, please, I beg you, it's
not my fault… these mudbloods and blood traitors; it's their fault. They
disgust me, the filth that they are! I wish them all death! Death! Death!"
he hissed out the last three words.
"I am here to judge you Severus," replied Voldemort coldly. "You are not
making a very good case… your mind is floored to me. You're weak. I am
a shadow of you. I know what you know."
Snape looked up in fear and panic.
"Master, please, don't kill me, don't!" Snape cried in horror. "I played
them too. I have never been loyal to Dumbledore. The stupid old man
always trusted me, and for what?! Handing over the first half of the
prophecy to you, then saying I'm sorry," he snorted before cowering
again.
"You did what!" screamed Rose suddenly stepping forward with tears in
her eyes, fists clenched. "I'll kill you, you slimy bastard, you fucked up
our lives!"
Snape didn't appear to be listening, and Harry quickly grabbed Rose
before she got in the way, holding her tight in his arms, she cried into his
chest, keeping her murderous eyes on Snape and Voldemort.
"Yes, Severus, but why not say where your true loyalties lie?" hissed
Voldemort with a dark chuckle that said he already knew.
"With myself! That's all I care about!" Snape blurted out. "I don't care
what happens to you or Dumbledore! You can both die for all I care. I
even killed the only person I ever cared about! The only person who ever,
no matter how foolishly, showed me kindness! Lily fucking Potter!" he
said spitting out the name with glee and spite, and Harry held Rose even
tighter as she looked ready to beat the bastard to death with her bare
hands.
Voldemort's laugh was piecing and way too creepy. He probably
practiced, or this was how Snape saw the dark wizard. "Yes, I know, a
completely self-centred arsehole! You're almost as bad as me…-"
"Enough!" A commanding voice suddenly barked from the door. Albus
Dumbledore stood, looking pityingly upon Snape. Harry swished his
hand, and Voldemort laughing hard and insanely swished into dark swirls
of light, fading away. "Severus!" he suddenly said angrily. "What have
you done?"
"A-Albus," Snape replied in confusion, looking around fearfully.
"Don't, Albus me!" was the angry reply. Harry was quite surprised at how
much magical energy radiated off the old man, as he was obviously
furious. "You are in a lot of trouble."
Snape gulped, looking confused. "But I haven't done anything wrong."
"I asked Professor King whether there are any obscure forms of magic he
had come across to force an Occlumense to reveal truths," Dumbledore
replied. "Though, I would have preferred it too not be so public. I've been
growing suspicious of you for the last few months. I wasn't sure whether
you deserved my trust, but it seems you don't deserve Voldemort's either.
When Professor King said he could possible do it, I asked him too, and
when you fired that Killing Curse… it had enough power to delve rather
deep into your psyche, and he had every right to do it there and then;
you could have killed an innocent student.
"And, I not only find that you are on neither our side nor Voldemort's, I
find out you murdered Lily Potter? Do you know what that spell would
have done to you had I let it continue?" Snape shakily shook his head. "If
you could not break yourself free, it would have put you in a nightmare
until you just gave in to the despair and died, reliving your worst
memories, but not just that, you would be everyone in your dream, even
the people you've hurt."
Snape looked horrified and so pale he might as well be dead.
"But, I-I," Snape stuttered.
"What Snape," interrupted Harry. "You're such a selfish, stupid wanker;
you think another apology will do it? As the saying goes, fool me once,
shame on me, try to fool me a second time, and I'll kick you in the nuts
until you've learnt your lesson."
"Err, that isn't how it goes," whispered Rose looking up at Harry with
watery eyes.
Harry smiled, kissing her forehead. "Well, that's my version, little, sis."
"You shall be going to Azkaban, Severus," said Dumbledore, pointing his
wand.
"No! No, I won't," Snape yelled lunging at Dumbledore, surprisingly
snatching his wand, pointing it at Harry and Rose. "I'll kill you brat. You
ruined everything! Avada Kedavra!"
The green beam soared forwards, and to everybody's surprise straight
through Rose and Harry, smashing into the wall behind as their images
faded.
"Over here," said Harry from his desk where he sat a dazed Rose on his
chair, as he had held her so tight, yet Rose still felt the forces of Harry's
movements.
Snape turned to Harry, spinning the wand towards him while Harry
pushed himself up on the desk and flipped up and over, and with a
shove, a moment later, Harry's right foot had slammed into Snape's wand
hand with such force the wand went flying before Harry's left leg came
down and his foot slammed into Snape's chest causing a huge wheeze and
squeak with a mighty crack, as Snape slammed into the broken door with
blood bursting from his lips, he was unconscious by the time the few
aurors called in by Dumbledore, stumbled through the door.
Harry stood up straight, and turned to his awed and horrified students as
they stared at him in awe while the aurors were wondering whether they
should be taking the class too.
"That was just a general demonstration," Harry said with a smile before
turning to the aurors, "make sure the word is spread far and wide about
Severus Snape's allegiances, and maybe, the greasy piece of shit might
find he had loose lips, but I will be pretty pissed off if some idiot thinks
about giving Snape some kind of deal where he goes free, just dobbing in
a few of his mates."
"Damn," Dumbledore muttered once he retrieved his wand and the aurors
had secured Snape, "I have to find a new potions teacher," he said slyly
turning to the aurors as they were hurryingly taking Snape away at a
rather fast pace. "The benefits are good-!" Dumbledore called after them,
"and the pays not bad-!" he sighed as he turned back to the class, "well,
I'll leave you to it, Professor King," he said, leaving the class, and with a
swish of his wand the door was back in place as good as new before he
was gone.
Harry sighed weakly, looking at Rose; he leaned over and kissed her
forehead before turning from her surprised face to the watching class.
"Well, before we were rudely interrupted," Harry began as he had no idea
where to go from mad-men teachers, "we were about to go through our
stretches, I think… oh, did I say any questions, feel free and raise your
hands, anytime…"
Suddenly every hand in class shot up despite their homework, and he
pointed to a girl up front.
"Miss…?" Harry asked.
She blushed brightly, which kind of went with her hair.
"S-Susan Bones."
"Very well, Susan?"
"Err, are you really Rose's brother?"
"Oh, err, yes, indeed, I am!" Harry agreed, and a few hands went down,
he sighed. "No more questions not involving our lessons will be asked,
during lessons, unless its super important."
The students groaned and lowered their hands.
"Good, now Rose, please join the others."
She nodded, giving Harry a weak smile and joined them where her
friends all pampered her with their kindness before Harry spent around
an hour demonstrating, and teaching the importance of stretching, and
telling them they should spend ten or fifteen minutes stretching every
morning before they showered, and preferably before bed too. Harry had
to adjust a few girls here and there, as he was sure they just wanted some
of his attention.
At the end of the first half of class, Harry dismissed them all for break,
and many were sweaty and tired, but he suspected news of what he did
would be common knowledge by lunch.
"Harry," said Rose as she came back after everybody had left, and she
walked up to him; teary eyed. "I love you so much – what happened… to
mum – that bastard…-"
Harry smiled from his seat and made a come gesture, and pulled her onto
his lap where he held her tightly as she snuggled.
"I love you too, Rosie!" he replied kissing her lips in a brief kiss and she
giggled, pulled back, kissed his forehead, and wrapped her arms around
her brother and held on tightly with her face buried into his neck.
"Mum was never the same when you left," said Rose suddenly. "I could
tell. Her eyes were blank, no sparkle… I could tell she felt guilty; she
then spent a lot more energy on June than even me. Dad never paid June
much attention, but mum did… I don't think mum wanted to lose her
too. I wish mum could see you now; her son, saved the world, and then
saves his damn, damsel of a sister."
"Sisters," he corrected with the plural to her soft laugh.
"You're my hero," Rose said sweetly, "but I'm afraid of him; Voldemort.
You've meet worse people and still fighting all comers."
"That's not true," Harry said while running his fingers through his sister's
hair. "I was scared when I fought Morveus. I was scared when I fought
those Death Eaters… well, more scared they would hurt June than me,
but still scared. And when Snape fired the Killing Curse at us, I was afraid
he would hurt you. I forgave you a long time ago, Rose, maybe even
before I left. I blamed mum and dad, well, mostly dad, but deep down I
never blamed you."
Rose looked at him gratefully. "I'm so sorry."
"And I have forgiven you," Harry muttered as he enjoyed his sisters'
company for just a little longer.
It wasn't long before the students returned to class, all waiting to find out
what they were going to do next, and hoping for something less scary
than crazy teachers, as even Draco Malfoy couldn't believe how messed
up Snape was.
"Right guys," Harry said with a mysterious grin, "follow me to your next
task," he said, as he led them through one of the double doors, and they
gasped one by one as they saw: "This track is full sized, the rooms
magically this big, and only looks outdoors," as a fake sun beamed
happily from above, but it wasn't hot, so that was something to be
thankful for. "The track is a quarter of a mile around; now I want you all
to run five laps, at your own pace. No use running full out because you'll
just collapse before you've completed one lap. After your fifth lap, you
can rest, and have a drink, not before," he said pointing out several water
coolers along a wall that looked like it was the outside of a school, during
a sports day, with tables between, and boxes of paper cups underneath.
"If I catch anyone cheating," Harry said with a monstrous grin, "and
trying to stop early I'll make you run two extra laps. Remember, keep
your own pace, okay, and begin."
They all ran off, though collectively groaned, most going slowly with a
couple of boys' that were showing off, and were running quite fast for a
while. However, they amused Harry when they reached near half way
and started slowing dramatically, he could see them huffing and puffing,
and they definitely-learnt their lesson.
About two laps for Ginny, Luna, Rose, and Hermione who were keeping
pace with each other, sweating and breathing hard, Harry jogged along
with them.
"You girls seem to be doing great," he chimed happily. He received four
glares and none spoke, well, they needed their breath to keep moving,
and looked like they wished they had towels to wipe away the sweat
pouring down their faces. "I'm sorry if you're finding it difficult right
now, but give it a month, you'll be having no problems."
"Easy… for… you… to… say," breathed Rose. "You… aren't… wearing…
theses…" she waved her arm at him to signal her wrist weight.
Harry chuckled. "You did see me lift the whole box of them, didn't you?"
They glared again. "Well… what's… heavy… for… you…?" demanded
Hermione out of breath.
Harry shrugged. "I don't know, I suppose I could lift a bus above my
head… hmm," he mumbled thoughtfully. "I've never really tested how
strong I am before, but I do have some punch machines to test strength,
but… let's just say about a bus…?" he added to his musings with a shrug.
The four girls stared at Harry, almost stopping in shock and disbelief. "A
bus?" said Ginny breathlessly.
Harry shrugging. "I suppose, well I'm fast enough to leave an after image
as long as I did earlier. Oh, by the way what happened to Ronald and
Malfoy's ex-flunkies?" he asked thoughtfully. "I should have probably
gotten Dumbledore to get them started on their punishment for me."
"Yeah," gasped Hermione. "McGonagall… has… given… them… an…
extra… weeks… detention… after… yours… for… attempting…to…
attack… a… teacher, and I hear… she did set them… to task for you…
and said you should… send a note to her, if… it… happens again."
"You should have…." blurted Luna breathing hard. "Seen the house, hour
glasses…" she continued breathlessly, and a little sore for other reasons
too from the night before. "Slytherin are m… minus eight hundred points,
and… Gryffindor have…"
"Minus one hundred!" Rose helped her finish to a grateful smile. "I've
never… seen them in… minuses before, all-all the colour of the-the
gems… it's gone grey."
"The other…" said Hermione tiredly. "Slytherin's… are really… pissed off
with the flunkies… and… Gryffindor's a-aren't too pleased either."
"What are… are you going to do with… Ron's wand?" Ginny asked with a
tired half grin.
"Oh, I'm giving it to your mum," Harry said with a crafty grin. "I did warn
him, and he chose to disobey."
"Good, pompous prat deserves it," Ginny replied. "He… he didn't… put on
his… homework."
"This homework is cruel," said Rose, panting.
"Yea…" agreed Hermione. "I don't think… I'll be able… to use my wand…
and we have… err, charms next."
Harry chuckled. "The weights should actually improve your aim," he told
them smugly, receiving four heated glares. "Well, they should. Well, I
guess the whole school knows Snape is going to be sent to Azkaban?"
"Probably," agreed Ginny.
Harry laughed. "Anyway, I can't wait for lunch, I'm starving, and thirsty,
how about you girls?"
They glared again at his cheery attitude. "Well, we… would not be…
thirsty if you… let us drink," said Rose heatedly.
"Oh, but you only have two more laps," he grinned cheekily.
"Only…" they all panted out like he said only fifty laps to go. "Well…
what… are… we… doing next?" asked Luna.
"I think I'll let you rest up for a little," Harry said smirking.
"Good, otherwise we would all drop dead from other work," blurted Rose.
"Nonsense," Harry replied. "You'll do fine. I expect my favourite pupils to
do very well in my class." Harry suddenly flipped forward on to his hands
still easily keeping pace, his legs straight in the air. "I expect you to all be
able to do ten laps easily like this someday in less than fifteen minutes."
The four girls gawked at him as he ran, backwards on his hands, not only
them but the other students watching while they continued had similar
fish like expressions.
"Now… that's just showing off," puffed Rose sulkily.
Harry chuckled as he flipped to his feet. "Nah, this is showing off," he
grinned as he shot off and unbelievable speeds, like a streak of wind, and
suddenly came up behind them to some startled squeaks from girls as he
appeared by them all around the track, leaving after-images, and
blushing girls in his wake before arriving back. "See, that was showing
off."
"Whoa…" whistled Ginny tiredly. "It's no wonder you can go so long… in
bed," she breathed as Luna nodded in agreement and Hermione feigned
shock, though she was at Luna.
Rose looked horrified. "How the hell would Luna know that," she
demanded in awe.
"Don't worry, sis, I got your back," Harry said. "Twin brood?" he asked
while her eyes widened. "See, twins in brood are very-very rare,
especially a boy and girl pairing, and you see; they're emotionally bound
together… they can't emotionally accept different partners, but even I'll
admit they are both smoking… tell him I said that and I will disown you.
But they're great, loyal, and good friends, so I know I could trust them
with you, so the problem is, can I trust you with them?"
"Yes!" Rose blurted out while sounding much too eager.
Harry just grinned and turned to Hermione. "I might be able to get Arctic
down too… trust me, you will get along like a house on fire… or you
know, a penguin and snow."
"Hermione," Rose said, "trust me… he is handsome."
"Why'd you stop?" demanded Hermione as she almost crashed into Harry
as he stopped in front of her, and felt glad, as her blush and
embarrassment was hard to reign in.
"Did you want to run a sixth lap?" Harry asked.
"No!" the four girls cried out and allowed themselves to collapse with
other students, and Harry was nice enough to go around and fetch trays
full of cups of water that he preprepared during the first two laps, and
handing them out to all his grateful peons.
Harry smiled as Ginny, Rose, Hermione, and Luna were lounging in
exhaustion and looked around at his other students conked out and
collapsing after eagerly downing some fresh cold water.
"You lady's doing well?" Harry asked with a wide smile as he came over
to Daphne Greengrass while her younger sister looked like she was dying
as she used her sisters lap for a pillow, and their tomboy friends lap for
her legs while she sat up against the wall next to Daphne, and rested her
head on her friends' shoulder, and she and Daphne's younger sister
looked more dead than Daphne did.
"Yes, thank you," Daphne huffed out while blushing as she happily gulped
down the extra cup of water Harry offered her as he sat up against the
wall next to her and smiled.
Harry scanned Daphne, her sister, and friend with his eyes before smiling
more. "I was wondering whether you could just spread the word through
your house, Daph," Harry said with a thoughtful frown. "If you need help,
or a way out of anything dealing with the Death Eaters, I will be here for
anyone, even if you just want to talk, or you have any issues, and since
Snape has gone, you have nothing to worry about while at Hogwarts.
Dumbledore has woken up to the bullshit, and I am here."
Grinning, Harry took Daphne's hand, and she surprisingly held on tightly
while blushing brightly.
"Can I really be strong?" Daphne asked, "by just training like this?"
Harry smiled. "Cup your hands like this," he ordered and made a bowel
like holding water, and she did as he asked while her sister and friend
watched, and others around were looking in curiosity.
"Don't pull back," Harry said as he placed his hands under hers, and she
felt his grip tighten, and then Daphne gasped as she felt something tingle,
pulling from Harry and into her hands and back through her fingertips as
a silvery light and glow felt odd through her fingers and hands, and then
a corona of silver-white light like a tiny sunset started forming.
Daphne was panting for breath as she felt her strength dwindling before
the light faded away and Harry was smiling at her.
"That, Daphne," Harry said smugly. "Was your own ki. Just a glimmer you
can barely show off with my assistance."
Harry cupped his hands, facing each like a sphere, and Daphne and the
class watched as a small blue glow formed in-between Harry's hands,
dead centre, small and seemingly insignificant for a moment before it
grew in but a moment, exploding between Harry's hands, roaring,
pushing and disturbing the air, and it woke those who had fallen asleep
as they could feel the warmth buzzing from Harry as the blue light
pushed and pulse, roaring to get free before it faded down and away, and
the blowing, swirling wind halted.
"Ki is your spirit," Harry said, directing his words at the class but looking
at Daphne. "It grows and improves with you, and your dedication, and
potential. It doesn't matter how strong you can make your ki. You also
have magic, but just like ki, magic grows with you, and if you just do the
bare minimum… you will never grow… but on a side note… that was me
not trying," he said to grimaces all around.
"Thanks," Daphne said sleepily. "That was pretty, cool."
"No worries," Harry said as he squeezed her shoulder, and stood up.
"Okay, everyone, before you all fall back to sleep, you can take your
showers, and since I'm letting you have a little extra time, relax and take
your time… ladies, we all know you'll appreciate that… and leave your gi
and boots in the locker, and they'll be cleaned and waiting for you for
next class," he added cheekily to a few snickers but the students all pulled
themselves up and towards their changing rooms with Harry smiling as
Daphne half dragged her friend and sister with her.
Rose sighed as she returned to the girls changing room, and grabbed the
towel from her locker before finding a place to sit as the locker room was
huge, and entered through twin sets of doors, and the showers were
through into and extra section. She shyly removed her clothes, and was
rather thankful for the sports bra, and pantie-briefs, and wrapped herself
in her towel, hoping the showers had all the soaps she needed.
Shrugging, as either way, Rose would like a nice cool shower. She
groaned about the weights, but all the other girls kept theirs on, and they
were rather comfortable against her skin. Rose walked through and into
the shower section where girls were already in showers. They were cut
up into several communal shower sections by frosted screens that just
showered girls' heads from above, and their feet and lower legs from
underneath for the water to flow, and slight silhouettes from the light.
Looking around, Rose frowned as she thought Luna had been with her, as
Ginny and Hermione were perpetual procrastinators when it came to
certain things, Ginny at everything, and Hermione during showers where
she had to be nude in front of other girls, as she was always embarrassed
and shy, and had to work up her nerves, not that Rose thought she had
any reason to be nervous, and sure didn't when it came to losing her
innocents to Harry.
"Rose?"
Rose was startled as she turned in relief to see Luna wrapped in her own
towel with a sweet smile.
"Come on, silly," Luna said leading Rose into a shower a little further on
as they only took eight per shower, and those closer to the locker rooms
were filling up first.
They slipped inside and found hooks on the inside of the frosted glass for
their towels, and were soon turning on the own showers next to each
other, and found they had everything from shampoo to shower creams.
However, Rose was surprised, and embarrassed to realise she was next to
Daphne Greengrass. She knew Harry said that he would like for them to
all get along, especially during classes, but she couldn't help but admire
how amazing, Daphne's tits were, and that was annoying somehow.
Rose's eyes roamed from Daphne's plump tits to Daphne's younger sisters
almost equally plump tits, but felt better as her eyes scanned, Tracey
Davis's small perky boobs, like cute cones.
However, Tracey pouted. "No fair, I have the smallest boobies in here!"
she said, but she was sniggering, and Luna grinned at her, sniggering
along while Rose, Daphne, and Daphne's sister, Astoria pouted and glared
at them both, but it was ruined as they all had small grins, and got on
fairly-well while they showered, and Rose wasn't surprised with a few too
many questions about Harry from the three Slytherin girls, but she was
surprised that they were rather enjoyable company, and joked, laughed,
and did normal girl things – who could have guessed?
They finished their showers, and got changed before heading off to lunch
before Rose and Hermione (who was annoyed that Rose left her for
Ginny to tease during their shower) made their way to Charms together,
feeling even more tired if that was possible, and Ginny and Luna had
transfiguration together. Harry had first years and second years, so his
little Sister Junes' class, and they would love it, probably.
Rose was sitting in Charms class next to Hermione, and like everybody,
both girls were trying to stay awake. Rose kind of wished she was back
under the delightful water in the shower with Luna and her new not
quite friends, just being silly than actually-trying to do any kind of
classwork, as she couldn't think straight. It was unfortunate that the
students at Hogwarts were kind of lazy, and now they were going to pay
for that until Harry had snaped them all back into shape.
Professor Flitwick was talking about animation of objects, and handed
them all stone gargoyles. However, Rose, like everyone else just stared at
the thing, wands in hand trying in vain to lift them off their desks, and
not just put their heads down and take a nap.
"Come on people, it's not as hard as it sounds," squeaked the tiny
professor excitedly. "It's no harder that a summoning or banishing
charm." Yet the class just stared blankly at the little statues. In fact, Rose
could not remember what the professor said the words and wand
movements were, so she thought there wasn't really-much point trying to
move her wand. They had been rather okay until they got to stuffing food
in their mouths, which gave them energy, but helped them feel sleepy.
Flitwick looked around at his class baffled. No one in his classes had ever
just ignored him before, and he noticed a few weren't even awake; that
had never happened before. However, those that were awake all had
vacant, tired looks about them. It seemed they weren't even listening, or
if they were it was going in one ear and out the other.
"Class please," he pleaded. All he got is as load of half-hearted glares,
though only their eyes moved. "Who did this to you?" he begged as he
looked at the time table to see they just came from Defensive Combat. He
wondered what Harry could have made them do to tire them this much.
He doubted they could even use magic right now let alone lift their
wands, he sighed. Well, he might as well sit back and enjoy the peace
and quiet, and read a book as giving them homework would probably be
too cruel. Though, Flitwick knew that after a few weeks they'll all get
used to the physical class and things should be back to a state of
normalcy.
Ginny Weasley was sitting next to Luna Lovegood in transfiguration, and
they were drained, and tired. Professor McGonagall had been talking for
a while about something, she wasn't sure what though. Ginny was trying
to listen but just couldn't concentrate. In fact, she could barely see the
professor, and wanted a nap. She wondered why the aches on her body
ached, as she rested her head in her arms and fell into a peaceful sleep.
"What's the matter, class," demanded the stern professor. "Conjuring is
not so hard you shouldn't try."
McGonagall sighed. Some of the class just slept and the rest looked like
zombies. She sighed again as she sat behind her desk. She might as well
get some work done; she shuffled through her papers, as she prepared a
quill and got to work.
To be continued…
18. Runa
Bandit King
Chapter 18
Runa
During the rest of the week, Harry's classes went as well as he expected.
After the incident with, Snape, no one was stupid enough to challenge
him, and did as they were instructed during classes, and thankfully,
seeing Ronald and Malfoy's former minions, during detention, and the
amount of house points taken, nobody thought about refusing their
homework.
Most of the students got along great with Harry, and knew that if you
obeyed during class, misbehaving outside class was overlooked, or
contributed to. Harry did believe that when learning martial arts of any
kind, a bit of discipline, whether of self, or for your teacher made things
work more smoothly.
Harry had left Ginny and Luna to sleep in, in his apartment that Saturday
morning, as they looked adorable snuggled up together once he slipped
from them, and returned from the shower, kissing their cheeks, he went
about getting ready fore his day. They knew that they would be meeting
up with him later in Hogsmeade once Harry had fetched Sahara, and
Arctic along with Rose's dates from London. However, Harry had a few
hours spare before he had to meet up with his friends, so he was in his
class. He was dressed rather casual in some beige cargo trousers with
belt, white tee, and white trainers. It was a fairly-pleasant day, so he
didn't feel he needed more.
Feeling like he would head out early anyway, and grab a sandwich or
something for breakfast, Harry was about to leave the classroom when he
was surprised to hear a knock on the door.
Shrugging, Harry pulled the door open, surprised to find a pretty-blonde
girl with cool grey eyes, with her hair tied back, wearing some blue
everyday robes over whatever purebloods chose to wear under their
robes. Nobody in the universe knew why witches and wizards still wore
robes, not even them, and Rose liked normal world clothes.
"Good morning, Daphne," Harry said with a smile while she looked him
over and gulped as she looked up into his smiling eyes. "I was just
heading out, but I have some time if you wish to talk," he said while
smiling and gesturing for her to enter, and she paused in concern. "Don't
worry, Daphne, I have a couple of hours spare. I was just going to waste
away that time anyway before meeting with some friends, so I'm all yours
until then."
Daphne nodded and shyly looked around before entering the massive
class. Harry chuckled as he gestured for her to take his seat at his desk
while he hoped up onto his desk and sat cross-legged.
Sitting on the comfortable leather chair, Daphne looked nervous for a
moment before she began. "I… I don't know how to be normal, or
interact with muggles or, stuff like that. I don't know about relationships,
and… that kind of love. My parents expect me to someday marry for… a
bloodline or whatever. They're not Death Eaters or anything, but they
don't have anything nice to say about muggles, and… I don't want my
life, or the life of my sister dictated."
Harry continued smiling while Daphne looked up at him with confusion
in her eyes. "I see… pushy parents… my friends Shoulin, and Hayne have
pushy parents. Not to the extent of butting into their private lives, but
they expect a lot from them school wise. Though, they've finished senior
school, and got fairly-good grades. Shoulin wants to draw and write
manga or comics, and she found it tricky speaking up to her parents and
telling them what she wanted… and her mum was rather disappointed in
her at first, but her dad was more supportive. He always respected people
who stood their grounds, and after a while her mother came around, and
so Shoulin is going to a college that has a rather good arts department
that deals in comics and animation, as a bit of a compromise, she has to
take a, as her parents put it, more reasonable course set, so she's working
to potentially be a teacher in mathematics, as she's a lot brighter than she
lets on.
"I guess, what I'm getting at is, sometimes you can find a compromise," he
continued thoughtfully while Daphne looked worried. "Shoulin's mum
and dad just want the best for their daughter, and son. Do you believe
that your parents don't care enough about you to care what you want?"
"I… I don't know," she said timidly. "Dark families… we aren't that simple
or close or-!"
"Don't you love your little sister, Astoria?" Harry interrupted, shocking
her.
Daphne's pale cheeks lit up and tinted as she looked uncomfortable as she
thought of her sister, and nodded in embarrassment.
"Have you ever told her?"
Daphne started and shook her head. "Of course not. That would be
embarrassing."
Harry chuckled and shook his head. "You let your sister use your lap as a
pillow during class?"
Daphne looked surprised. "I… Astoria has always been more liberty
taking than me. I am the first born after all. Mum and dad don't pay her
as much attention. I will inherit the Greengrass family since we have no
brothers."
"So, what do you want?" Harry asked kindly.
"I-I want to be strong," she said quietly. "I want to be free… I want my
sister to be free too. I want to be more like others I see all the time… like
your sister, Rose… she's really nice. I want to choose my future, and I
don't want to lose what little I have by being so, me all the time where I
only act more like the me, I wish to be when caught unaware."
Harry chuckled while Daphne pouted and her cheeks looked like they
might burst into flames if she wasn't careful.
"Okay, so let's work on this, shall, we?" Harry asked as he hopped down
from the desk and offered his right hand to help Daphne up.
Daphne looked at Harry's hand and gulped before she shyly reached up
and took it. She was surprised with how easily Harry pulled her to her
feet, and her cheeks lit up further as he kept hold of her hand while
giving her that amazing smile. She could almost see the power the power
coursing through his powerful looking arms, and the outline of his body
through his shirt caused her to quiver.
"You and I are going to take a trip into London," Harry said while she
looked nervous, "and during our trip we're going to hold hands like a
couple," he said as she felt him readjusting their hands so that their
fingers threaded and linked. "We'll then meet up with my friends, and
you can show us around Diagon Alley before we get back."
"Erm, I don't think you'll be allowed to take me anywhere," Daphne
answered nervously.
However, Harry just offered her a smug grin and a wink. Then and hour
and twenty minutes later, Daphne was sat with Harry at a coffee shop in
London. He had taken her shopping, as she needed to look like a muggle,
and she thought holding Harry's hand in public was super embarrassing.
The pretty young woman in the muggle clothing store seemed rather
aghast with the way Daphne was dressed, as apparently it was a waste of
Daphne's natural good looks. Daphne couldn't escape, and even had on
new underwear, which embarrassed her beyond anything as the young
woman, let Harry see her in just the new knickers and bra, and Daphne
had never felt so humiliated, but he gave the clerk a nod of approval, and
thumbs up while grinning like it was still Christmas.
Then, the rest of Daphne's new clothes. She wore a flowing white dress
that only hung to above the half-way point of her thighs, and plumped up
her boobs with too much cleavage, which she found highly humiliating
as she showed too much skin for her liking. Then she wore matching
white sandals that showed off her toes. Though, secretly she could admit
she thought she looked rather nice, when Harry told her she was
beautiful, she thought she would die of joy, her heart pounding so hard
in her chest as no one had ever complimented her like that before, or
been so sincere with her before. The clerk in the store had helped Daphne
out, and redone her pale blonde hair, combing it back, and tying it
loosely behind her.
Harry and Daphne sat outside in the sun of the coffee shop, and they
each had a drink that was practically finished while they waited, and
Daphne was rather nervous to meet Harry's friends.
"Wow, Harry, I didn't know you were bringing me a sexy blonde!"
Daphne startled as she thought that a goddess had slipped into the seat
next to hers. She had a defined body and wore a tight blue top that her
boobs pressed against, and a matching blue skirt that was shorter than
Daphne's dress. The girl had long, snow-white hair tied back in a plat,
and to the right side, hanging over her shoulder and over her firm boobs,
and she wore some white trainers on her feet with socks barely hidden.
Harry laughed while Daphne's cheeks streaked with blood as she looked
into the white-haired girls' green eyes.
"This is Daphne," Harry said with a smile. "And Daphne, this Sahara, and
she will probably try to do some naughty things with you."
Sahara rolled her eyes. "Don't listen to him," she said to Daphne's relief. "I
am totally going to do some naughty things with you!" she said while
snickering while another girl came up behind her and slapped the back of
her head, getting an 'ouch'.
"Hi, I'm Shoulin!" the new girl introduced herself as she dropped down
next to Harry and giving him a quick hug. "Nice to meet you," she said
turning to Daphne and shaking her hand, and Daphne noted that while
Sahara looked about their age, Shoulin looked like she was a couple of
years wiser.
Shoulin was a short yet pretty-Asian girl with a tanner skin tone, and
Daphne would have to guess at either Korean, Japanese, or Chinese, or
something like that as she was not very good at guessing family origins
unless she knew their family names, and even then, it wasn't easy, but
she was obviously originated from the 'far-east'. Shoulin had dark eyes,
and short cut dark hair, and a cute smile, and she was wearing a yellow
summer dress that plumped up her much smaller breasts.
"So," Shoulin turned to Harry with an excited grin. "When do we get to
meet your sister?"
Sahara snorted. "She's been bouncing like that since we got on the train.
Though, I can't blame her as Rose is super sexy, and has an amazing arse,
and cute tits, she won't be able to keep her face from burying in them,"
she laughed while Shoulin, blushing glared and Daphne blushed the
most, as she didn't know where to look.
"Don't buzz too much, Shoulin," Harry said teasingly while rolling his
eyes at both new arrivals, as he didn't care what Sahara said about his
sister, as he agreed that she was rather sexy, and he was glad that
Shoulin was attracted to her, so much. "At least wait until you have my
sister at your lacklustre mercy."
Shoulin pouted while her cheeks burnt red. "Harry, don't tease me like
that, too!" she reprimanded. "I have Sahara for all my teasing needs. You
sent me her picture, so I can't help it. Your sister is super-hot, and willing
to… well, you know?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure Rose caught some of Sahara's perverseness," he
replied with a shrug while it was Sahara's turn to pout, as Harry wasn't
stupid and knew Sahara and Rose had fooled around a little in the
shower back at Sahara's house, and no doubt got each other off at least,
but since he got to keep Ginny, he couldn't care that Rose had a little fun
too, as long as it wasn't some arsehat guy taking advantage of her.
"Don't let Harry scare you away from being our friend, Daphne," Sahara
said, turning from him to the blushing blonde girl who looked confused
and concerned. "Shoulin and I are rather awesome, and Harry may be a
godly mage; he does get off on being a tease sometimes, but it's all in
good fun. Quite honestly, I would choose Harry to fight for me over my
own family, plus, he has a huge dick! And I mean absolutely massive,"
she said with a dreamy grin while Daphne and Shoulin were bright red
and Harry didn't know where to look, and was thankful that they were
interrupted as Daphne looked to him and her eyes flickered down, but
the table was in the way.
"Do you two have to rush off all the time?!"
Daphne was startled more as a young Asian guy interrupted, and with his
looks, though his body was more defined and he was taller, it was
obvious that he was Shoulin's brother, maybe even twin. His hair was
dark and ruffled, and his dark eyes looked rather amused, but thankfully
didn't seem to have heard what Sahara had said, and Daphne was
thankful as, just wow, she couldn't stop thinking about it, now.
Shoulin's brother wore some tight black jeans with a black tee shirt and
thin jacket and white trainers.
"This is my twin brother, Hayne!" Shoulin introduced to get the mood
away from Harry's penis or she might think on it too much, as though she
personally preferred girls, she had thought of Harry a few times before,
as Sahara bragged a lot, "and Sahara's older brother, Arctic," she added
for Daphne's benefit, secondly gesturing the pale young man with
Shoulin's brother.
Arctic was taller than Hayne, and had rusty blonde hair, cut to the base
of his neck and combed neatly. He was wearing some standard black
trousers and shoes with a white shirt with the top button undone,
showing like all of them, except Daphne, he had muscle and then some,
but looking to his blue eyes, it was obvious that he was more into
academics than fighting.
"N-nice to meet you," Arctic said with a nod toward Daphne.
"Well, shall we go then!?" Sahara asked happily as she stole Daphne's
right hand in her left and pulled her from her seat, and threading their
fingers, and giving the girl a sheepishly teasing smile.
"Sure," Harry agreed with a shrug, "lead the way My Beautiful, Ladies!"
he said with a sweeping bow and crafty grin while they both blushed,
Daphne more than Sahara, but both looked pleased to have his attention.
"The entrance to Diagon Alley is about a mile and a half walk from here,"
Arctic said as he shook his head in annoyance with the game players, as
he looked over his phone as he followed behind with Harry and the
twins, while Daphne was getting her ear talked off by Sahara while
leading the way, and having her arm pulled into Sahara's chest, as she
whispered something that turned Daphne cherry-red, and caused her eyes
to widen impossibly, and then licked her lips and whispered more
embarrassing things, that Harry was certain involved him and sex.
"Sahara!" Shoulin complained as she skipped to catch up and took
Daphne's spare hand and arm and glared at her friend, but seemed to
want in on their naughty conversation.
Harry and Hayne laughed and fist bumped while Arctic rolled his eyes
with a slight blush as his sister could be too embarrassing.
"Did you cut your hair?" Harry asked as he looked over Arctic.
"Erm… maybe."
"So, you're really getting one of these Caster sticks?" Hayne asked, as he
had already teased Arctic enough, so sort to helpped him out.
Harry shrugged. "I figured that since I'm doing this whole teaching thing
at a Casters school; that I should probably figure out some stick waving
tricks while I have the opportunity. Then we'll take this magical bus back
to Hogsmeade, and you'll get to meet Rose, as the school doesn't let the
students out until this afternoon anyway."
"Right," he said, embarrassed with the way Harry gave him a look.
It only took them around half an hour to finally make it to the Leaky
Cauldron pub, which was the Mortal entrance to the Casters 'World'.
"Wow, it's no wonder no one notices this place," Hayne said with a
grimace. "This pub looks like a shithole."
Harry rolled his eyes and opened the door, "ladies," he said in amusement
as he looked over the girls and waved them in. The ladies quickly entered
while followed by the boys, and they all got a good look around.
"It's not as bad on the inside, I suppose," Hayne suggested uncertainly as
they looked around and got a lot of confused looks. In fact, they got quite
a lot of confused looks while Harry led them out back and stared at the
brick wall. "I heard they really like their 'fantasy world' theme, and
'hidden' doors and whatnot."
"I think I'm supposed to smack the wall or something for this one," Harry
suggested as he raised his right fist to punch the wall down when Daphne
quickly rushed forward and grabbed his arm, as she felt the power
flowing, and was pretty sure he probably could punch the wall down.
"No, don't do that, Harry!" she reprimanded, using his first name for the
first time, embarrassed, and shyly withdrawing her wand she tapped a
quick sequence of bricks, and just like that, the bricks pulled back,
melting into each other to reveal.
"Wow, that was cool," Sahara said in delight as she praised her new
friend. "Harry looked like he was going to break the wall down. It was
lucky he chose to bring you or we would be paying for the damages."
Daphne gave her a relieved smile, and within moments, Harry had
grabbed her hand, and Sahara's hand and tugged them into the magical
shopping district, and he offered them a smile each, and Sahara grinned
and snuggled to Harry's arm, while Daphne blushed and saw what Sahara
did and though embarrassing, copied her on the other arm as she couldn't
even lie to herself, as she realised she really liked Harry, and would do
anything to have him, even share, especially after what Sahara told her,
as she wanted a man who was powerful, and would love and look after
her.
"Let's get my new wand, first," Harry said in glee as he saw the shop not
too far away, and quickly headed inside. It was on the rather dusty side,
but it was likely still going for that weird magical world theme.
There was an old man at the counter with grey hair, looking forlornly
into a wooden box at some kind of rod of a silver colour. Harry released
his girls and moved closer, looking amazed, as the rod was made of some
kind of metal, and was around in the shape of a pentagon, and was
covered in engraved runes and symbols, and was the actual size of a
slightly oversized wand.
The old man smiled at Harry. "Good morning," he said with a gentle
smile. "My son made this staff… he was a strange one. He made a staff
that no one can even use. We had an argument over the money he…
spent making this staff. He called it Mysta-Runic-Bang, like the Monkey
Kings staff, since he was inspired by those old legends. Though, maybe
the creator of Excalibur was thought, weird for creating the sword with
all its eccentricities, too."
"Why can't no one use it?" Sahara asked in confusion as she looked the
staff over.
"It weighs tons," he replied with a gentle smile. "But enough about that,
which of you needs a new wand-?"
However, his head snapped up to Harry as he held the rod in his right
hand, and white lightning coursed from it through Harry, as he lit up
with power and magic, and in a flash, his eyes turned a pale blue, and his
hair, eyebrows, and lashes flash with a spark of yellow light, and then it
stopped, and the rod extended in size, becoming a bow staff, just a bit
longer than Harry's body.
The old man had tears in his eyes, and awe in his face as he gazed upon
Harry. "She has finally found a master worthy of her?" he asked in delight
beyond anything. "My son had dreamt of the moment his staff would find
its master, even though I so doubted anyone could weald her, but he died
fighting the Death Eaters during the first rise of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-
Named."
However, Harry dropped to his knees suddenly, as he cried out with a
golden aura surrounding his body, his hair flashed with yellow white
light, and his eyes a pale-teal-blue, and everyone were blast back by his
ki, as he roared, his muscles contracting, and tightening. Arctic moved
fast in rescuing Ollivander while Sahara and Shoulin protected Daphne
when it was suddenly over with Harry collapsing to his hands and knees
with a black furred tail, like a monkey's bursting from his trousers, and
tail-bone, making a hole.
"Owe," Harry mumbled as he pulled himself to his feet, shaking his head
clear, holding his staff, as it felt much lighter, and looked around to see
the burnt wood at his feet, the cracked windows, and his friends slew all
over the place.
"You have a flipping tail!" Sahara said from where she and Shoulin held
Daphne in protection, shielding her with their bodies, as they had felt too
much power, and knew it could have easily killed her.
Harry did feel strange and looked around in awe to find a long black
furred monkey tail. "Okay, I have a tail, but stranger things have
happened, right?" he asked and got some shrugs. "Well, anyway, Old
Man, how much for the staff?" he said as if the tail business was of little
concern.
The old man smiled gently as Arctic let him go. "My son just wished to
meet the mage who would take claim of her, so the staff is free, but…
whatever that was did… well, did make a mess of my…"
"Oh-oh, how about some Harpy feathers?" piped in Sahara excitedly, a
blue hole appeared out of nowhere and she dug her hand and arm in,
rummaging around before pulling out two brown, silver tipped feathers
and the hole closed. "That way, you'll get a gift too. I've got these. I have
a few more, but I couldn't find them, they're Harpy feathers; they should
work as wand cores, right? And I know Harpy's are hard to catch," she
grinned as she handed them over.
Ollivander looked at them in shock, his eyes buggy. "I thought harpies
were extinct."
"No, why would you think that?" she asked shaking her head in
amusement. "The Mystics' Council keeps them safe, and Shoulin's and
Hayne's mum found some loose feathers and gave us some."
"Mystics Council?" asked Ollivander in confusion, looking to Daphne she
could only shrug sheepishly, as she was just as clueless.
"Yeah," piped in Shoulin. "My mum works for them… she's a Watcher,
and keeps an eye on the Harpies," she said proudly. "I always thought
things like that was common knowledge."
"Yeah, but not here," sighed Harry. "Remember, the Wizarding World
doesn't know anything about the real world; they don't even know that
demons live on Earth," he said rolling his eyes. "And they know nothing
about real magic, no offence, Daph," he said with a smile while he
wiggled his tail and found it fascinating.
"Oh, yeah, you said that on the phone," agreed Sahara sheepishly. "Sorry,
I forgot, but here you go," she said, handing over the feathers.
"You can have these too, if you want," Shoulin added as she offered him
some scales. "It's some Lamia scales, so, I guess you could make a wand
out of them?" she suggested while he could only stare in awe before they
left, startling him out of his stupor.
"Great things, Mr. Potter, Great Things."
"Are you really what I think you are?" Hayne asked Harry once they left
the wand shop.
Harry shrugged. "I have no idea."
"It would explain a lot," Arctic agreed.
"Explain what?" Shoulin asked in confusion.
"That Harry is a flipping Saiyan!" Sahara answered in awe. "You are a
Saiyan, right?"
Harry sighed and rolled his eyes. "I have no idea what is going on."
"What's a Saiyan?" Daphne asked shyly.
"Oh, I got this," Sahara said with a grin, holding Daphne's hand as they
walked through the street. "Long ago there were Five Great Races.
Humans. Brood… that's us, minus you and Harry, otherwise known as
dragonkin. Then we have the Elven, and I'm not talking about those 'elf'
things you keep as pets. Then the Celestials. They are powerful. Demons
and Angels and 'Gods' come under this category, but don't worry, though
they do have much longer lifespans than even magical human's and
Brood; they can and will eventually die.
"Then last, the Saiyans. They were a race of warriors, much like the
Brood back in the day. All I can say, as no one knows the full truth, but
the Celestials, the Gods and Angels mostly, feared the Saiyans. All the
races had clans, tribes, and even kingdoms with powerful warriors… but
the Saiyans whole race was built off of fighting, and becoming stronger.
They had no desire for conquest, but only to test their strength in mighty
tournaments they held once a week, on a Saturday, I think.
"The Saiyans invited everyone, even subspecies of humans were invited,
and by subspecies, I mean like Lamia and Harpies for example. To the
Saiyan people, they did not harbour the concept of racism. They believed
in strength, and in that, improving upon yourself was more important
than what your skin colour was, or whether you had scales or wings.
"They didn't attack the weak, only the strong. They protected and cared
for those in their tribes who were weak, as they did understand that they
needed scholars, carers, and well, you get the point, but even by Human
civilian standards, the weak Saiyans weren't considered a pushover, and
the Saiyans even protected anyone who went to watch the fights, and
enjoy themselves.
"I would have loved to watch some of the fights myself," Sahara grinned
while the others had to nod that it would be fun. "The Humans, Saiyans,
Elves, and even the Brood always lost to a Celestial in the finals –
normally a God. They would laugh, and mock us with their hatred and
superiority complex.
"Then…" she trailed to a stop as they looked up at the huge marble
building that housed Gringotts Wizarding Bank with a couple of short
goblin warriors either side of the door, stiffening as they saw them.
"Then?" Daphne asked in fascination.
"It was at the last World Rival Championship," Hayne continued the
story. "It was like a World Cup today, and held once a year where the
world's greatest warriors would travel to the land of whoever won the
last tournament, as they had the honour of hosting the next one, and they
fought to show off their people's strongest warriors, showing off, so that
perhaps their neighbours would think more than twice about going to
war over something silly.
"A Saiyan not only beat the Celestials most powerful fighter, but
decimated him," he finished with a shrug. "Then, just like that, the
Celestials declared war on the Saiyans, and destroyed their capital city,
Sadala. They murdered hundreds of thousands of Saiyans, most of which
were children and other non-combatants. Olympus fell the next day, and
only a few of the Olympian Empire survived the attack, and they didn't
know how to fight them, as they were unpredictable, and they were
furious. Elves took the side of the Saiyans against the Celestials. Humans
were split, some more religious humans sided with their 'Gods', and
others against or they stayed out of it. The Brood stayed out of the
conflict too, for the most part as some did join with the Saiyans.
"Then, in the end… the Saiyans were near extinction, and of the
Celestials… well, the Gods are still pitiful in numbers because of the war,
and that breeding with each other is difficult as they aren't as fertile with
their own race, as the rest of us, but because of the war we have plenty of
Demigods, and their parents are kind of deadbeat pricks, so we don't
have to worry about them following in their Godly parents footsteps.
"Heck, the Gods had some of their own people siding against them too…
Demons and the 'Fallen'… heck, I bet you've heard of the Titan,
Prometheus… or Calypso, as they turned on the other Olympians…
though, myth tells a highly exaggerated tale of it. Civilisations had come
to ruin. With so many people dead… the species that lived the shortest
lives, took the world for themselves, and when you Casters wrote
yourselves out of history, the rest to the mystical societies that remained,
followed suit, and we all became myth and legend."
"I'm surprised you didn't add in, Skulduggery Pleasant somewhere," Harry
teased while Hayne blushed a little, and Harry smiled at Daphne as she
looked more confused than ever. "Hayne wants to be a detective, and
Skulduggery Pleasant is one of the best, but from what I hear, he's
already got an apprentice."
Hayne pouted, and even Daphne laughed with the others, and blushed as
Sahara gave her a large cheeky grin.
Daphne enjoyed leading her new friends around Diagon Alley. They were
a breath of fresh air compared to most people she had met, but she and
Sahara had to resist stroking Harry's new tail. However, after a light
lunch, they had to leave, and entered back into Muggle London, where
Daphne used her want to call a huge triple decker bus to get them back
to Hogsmeade.
Flicking her wand, Daphne smiled as the other started, as the bus
appeared out of the traffic in a bang with the other vehicles seeming to
stretch out of the way, and the normal people non-the-wiser.
"Whoa, cool," chimed Sahara excitedly cuddling Daphne's arm into her
bust.
"Welcome to the Knight Bus, transport for the…" a pimple faced teenage
boy began then started staring at Sahara, Daphne, and Shoulin in a rather
non-flattering way.
"Eww!" moaned Sahara wrinkling her nose. "Harry, do something."
Harry growled deep in his throat, inwardly smirking as he got the idiots
attention. "Keep your eyes to yourself, all these lovely young ladies
belong to me," he growled out through gritted teeth. Wow, it was real fun
saying that, as he pulled the girls closer with his arms over Sahara and
Shoulin's shoulders. "Now move aside, we are going to Hogsmeade." They
pushed passed him, and Harry gave him a lot more cash than needed
when seeing how many people were on the bus. "Hogsmeade's the next
stop?"
"Well, no, not for a while…"
Harry forestalled him with his hand. "No, the answer is, yes sir, I don't
want to die."
The teenager paled. "Yes, sir… Hogsmeade's the next stop."
"Good boy," Harry growled as he led 'his' giggling girls on to a bench
sitting together while the other two boys, trying not to laugh at their
crazy antics sat on the next one. Harry grinned at Daphne as she looked
torn between laughing and embarrassment.
Suddenly the bus went 'bang' again, launching them all out of their seats.
"What the hell," shouted Hayne appalled. "These bloody seats aren't even
screwed to the flipping floor," he glared daggers at the pimple faced
conductor as he stood rubbing his head. "What bloody idiot thought it
would be a great idea to not bolt down the benches? In fact, this bloody
thing should have safety harnesses."
"Yeah," agreed Arctic rubbing his head. "There's not even a sign saying,
'ride at risk of broken bones'."
"This thing is bloody stupid," agreed Harry helping the girls to their feet,
as even Daphne fell. "I'm bloody disgusted, such appalling service, and
bloody dangerous. I would rather go a couple of rounds with a giant; at
least you know where you stand with them."
"Yeah! The kids are right!" a man at the back of the bus stood. "Why
should we pay you good money to get thrown around?" he demanded
glaring at the conductor who grimaced and looked dismayed as more and
more pissed off passengers stood, glaring and shouting rude profanities.
The bus suddenly stopped knocking everyone down. They all hopped
back up again to continue their angry yelling as Harry and his group
laughed amusedly as they climbed off the bus, and it banged away.
"I think the seats will be bolted down and have seat belts next time we
ride," said Harry chuckling as he led them to the Three Broomsticks pub.
"I hope so," moaned Shoulin, happily holding Harry's hand one side while
Daphne was sheepishly holding his hand the other, "that bloody hurt my
head… bloody morons."
They laughed as they entered the pub, and found a large table to sit at,
"what can I do for you darlings?" asked a gorgeous woman in her late
thirties to early forties."
"Five butter beers please, Rose said they're 'divine'," said Harry shrugging.
The woman left and returned moments later with five tankards of fluffy
cream coloured liquid.
"Whoa, this stuff's delicious," approved Hayne to nods of agreement from
the others, "at least they have something worthwhile; no offence
Daphne."
"Looking at it from the outside, I can't disagree," she said sheepishly as
she sipped her drink.
They settled down, relaxing as Harry and his friends caught up on
everything, and Daphne giggled quite a lot as they told stories of some of
their misadventures.
"Harry!" called Rose nervously as she approached, she could already tell
which were the twins, and had to admit they were cute, and she was a
little pouty that Harry took Daphne with him by the look of it, but she
was too nervous toc complain that she would have liked to go too.
"Hey guys," said Harry standing, he dragged up Sahara, and Daphne, and
introduced everyone, "Rose, you sit here," he said grinning from ear to
ear as he pushed her into the seat in between the twins, "Hermione, you
here," he pushed her into the seat next to Arctic, "and Sahara, Daphne,
Ginny, Luna and I will see you all at school later, enjoy," he said
dropping two bags of Galleons on the table in front of Arctic and Hayne,
"you guys can pay me back later. I forgot we should have gone to the
bank," he grinned as he dragged the girls away leaving the other five
looking very nervous. However, after a few minutes began talking and
getting along brilliantly.
Sahara giggled insanely with Ginny, and Daphne looked somewhat
amused, while Luna and Harry stared at them blankly as they walked
through town.
"Why are you girls laughing?" Harry eventually asked.
"Why do you think?" giggled Sahara.
"Yeah," agreed Ginny giggling more. "You just introduced them, and then
left them alone."
Harry shrugged. "Do you think we should have stayed with them?" he
asked confusedly. "I know I'm not really good at dates and everything,
but I do know they're more enjoyable without your friends tagging along.
Don't worry, they'll be fine. Oh, look a sweet shop, who wants some?"
"Meeeeee!" all three girls chimed giggling.
Harry chuckled nervously while smiling as he led them in. When they left
the shop all four girls had bags full of all sorts of different sweets, and
Sahara hid hers in her pocket dimension to not have to carry them
around.
"I don't think I've seen that many sweets before," said Sahara in awe.
"How do you make a pocket dimension?" asked Ginny suddenly
interested.
"Oh, you don't know how," asked Sahara, and the other girls shook their
heads. "Well, it's easy, you just concentrate really hard on wishing to hide
things within yourself and once you've made it, all it takes is a simple
thought, and it can open and close. Try it, it's the easiest mystic magic
there is – well, not easiest, but close, and it's extremely useful."
Ginny, Daphne, and Luna scrunched up their faces concentrating, and
after a few minutes three coloured holes appeared, Daphne's purple,
Ginny's red, and Luna's yellow.
"Cool," said Ginny as she made hers disappear then reappeared several
times giggling, before she put her candy in with Daphne and Luna doing
the same.
Sahara nodded. "See, easy… they come in different colours, mines blue,
Harry has a white one, err, Shoulin's is pink, and her brothers' is blue like
mine, and Arctic has a green one."
"This will be so much easier to carry my books around in, and all my stuff
to and from school," said Luna over the moon.
Sahara giggled. "Well, where to now?" she asked. "Oh, can we go see the
school now?"
"Okay, I guess," Harry agreed leading the way. "Oh, yeah, the care of
magical creature's teacher wanted to meet you… he has a weird
obsession with dragons according to Hermione."
Sahara grinned as they entered the gates. "I'm always up for meeting
fans," she said giggling as a blue wind of light started swirling round her,
faster and faster, and hiding her from view before disbursing. She now
had large blue and white scaly wings from the centre of her back, folded
up, and down to her ankles. She had a few strips of scales on the right
side of her neck. Her fingernails were longer and more claw like. Her
eyes were the same teal green perhaps darker and looked reptilian with
slanted pupils, and she had fanged canine teeth. She had a long whip like
scaly tale, same colours as her wings with a pointed tip, and on the left
side of her stomach a few scales.
"Whoa," whispered Ginny as they continued walking. "How come that
didn't rip off your clothes?"
Sahara looked at her smirking. "If you wanted to see me naked, all a cutie
likes you needs to do is ask," she said laughing as Ginny blushed deep
scarlet, and pouted, as even Daphne and Luna teased her.
"It's magic Ginny," answered Harry chuckling.
"Okay, then why do you suddenly have a monkey tail, Harry?" Ginny
asked as she reached out and ran her fingers along the fur.
"Turns out I might have Saiyan blood," Harry replied with a shrug while
Luna surprisingly nodded.
"I heard Saiyans were powerful warriors," Luna said gently having a feel
of his tail too and he shuddered in enjoyment, as Sahara happily told
them of the Five Races and the whole tail in glee.
"Hey," he added grabbing Sahara's' wandering tail, she looked at him
pouting. "Keep your tail out of my pants, in public… this is a school,
Sahara."
She grinned. "Oh, does the big bad Harry not like my cute little tail
wrapped around his…"
"Sahara," he moaned releasing her tail while Ginny and Daphne blushed
at the implication. "We're on our way to visit someone who is very naïve.
I don't want you giving the poor bloke a heart attack."
"Okay," she pouted. "I'll be good," she said as her tail wondered up
Ginny's' skirt.
"Yawp!" Ginny jumped in surprise, and Sahara whipped her tail back
whistling innocently while the other four stared at her in suspicion.
"Wow, that doesn't feel as reptilian as I would have thought," she
commented with a small smirk Sahara returned.
"Here feel my skin," she said taking Ginny's hand. "Now touch my wing,"
she added extending her right wing, and Ginny stroked it.
The red head gasped. "It feels just like your normal skin, but it looks like
a dragon's wing to me."
Sahara nodded smugly as Ginny let go. "I know, though I actually feel
scaly when I go full dragon."
"I still can't get my head around the ministry not knowing the Brood
exist," she replied shaking her head in amusement. "Hermione even
looked in Hogwarts library looking for legends or references to them but
found barely anything.
"Right," Sahara replied grinning as they reached a small hut where
Hagrid lived. "Is that huge half giant him?" she asked pointing out said
man doing the gardening.
"Yeah," Harry replied. "Hey Hagrid, don't bother with the gardening," he
greeted while smirking. "I'll get my first class to do that for you on
Monday with their fingers."
"What!" shrieked Ginny in panic looking at her poor little fingers and the
solid dirt Hagrid was turning before he got up to greet them.
"Oh, 'ello, Harry, Ginny, Luna, and Daphne too…" he said in delight,
which was a surprise to Daphne as she was a Slytherin. "Oh, who's your
new friend…" he trailed off as his eyes went wide with excitement as
Sahara spread her wings.
"This is Sahara," he replied. "She's a brood."
"It's nice ta meat you," Hagrid boomed offering out his large hand, Sahara
shook it. "Wow, a person that can actually turn in ta a dragon."
Sahara giggled. "Wow, a real half giant, how does that work?" he asked
embarrassing Harry, Daphne, and Ginny who could guess what she was
thinking, however Hagrid looked confused.
"Sahara," hissed Harry.
"Sorry," she relied sheepishly.
"Well, this is a sight," continued Hagrid. "Can you really, truly fully
transform?" he asked with eyes shining with the need to see.
She grinned, shrugged then flew back away from them to Hagrid's
delight. Then a huge rush of powerful blue light and wind erupted
around her, before it disburses to reveal a magnificent blue and white
dragon. She looked more lizards like than most dragons, but had no
horns; most brood had no horns though a few like Shoulin did. She shot
powerful blue flames into the sky as she roared her fury, before the same
blue wind and she was looking completely human, grinning happily, and
still clothed.
"Hagrid!" called Dumbledore rushing over with his wand, in hand,
looking around frantically. "Where did it go?" he asked, still keeping a
watchful eye out.
"Where'd what go?" interrupted Harry amusedly.
"Oh, a huge blue dragon," he replied worriedly.
"Oh," he replied chuckling as he put his arm around Sahara who was
suppressing giggles barely and moved her forward. "Here she is."
Dumbledore looked at her critically and back to Harry frowning in
confusion. "She looks like a…" he trailed off as Sahara transformed and
stood grinning impishly with wings and tail. "Oh, she's one of your
guests," he nodded, smiling and putting his wand back in his pocket.
"Well, I should have figured… it's nice to meet you."
Sahara nodded, grinning. "It's nice to meet you too sir," she chimed
cheerfully as she de-transformed back to human-form. "Well, if you
gentlemen will excuse us, Ginny, Luna, Daphne, and Harry have to show
me around. It's not every day one gets to visit a massive magical castle,"
she said as she dragged Harry away, followed by the other three girls,
two of which were giggling, and the third was trying her hardest not to
laugh.
"Bye!" they all called.
"Okay then, lead away to your class Harry, and maybe you'll get some…
pampering from the four of us," Sahara said wickedly, and even Daphne
gulped, and blushed.
To Be Continued…
19. Ships
Bandit King
Chapter 19
Ships
Harry woke groggily. He had been having a very interesting dream, and
upon opening his eyes he realised everything was dark. He chuckled as
he realised Sahara's wings were covering his vision, and gently pushing
them open, the bed covers fell to the floor, as Sahara's wings lay flat. He
almost jumped in surprise when he saw, Sahara and three human girls:
Ginny, Daphne, and Luna were all snuggled naked together on him.
The girls looked so cute and content; he just lay with them, watching
their peaceful slumber, stroking their hair. They were just, well; he
couldn't describe his feeling for them. He had always' loved Sahara; she
was his first ever friend his own age, and well, they had been best friends
since they were seven years old.
However, he found himself growing attached to Ginny at an alarming
rate, as she was cute, kind and fun to be around, and also had
intelligence, and her soul was just peaceful and loving. Then there was
Luna, a girl that lived in a fantasy world most of the time, he didn't know
much about, her 'yet', but he could tell she was a beautiful, intelligent
and loving girl most people overlooked because to them she was unusual.
Then finally Daphne. She probably worried too much about things she
shouldn't, and Harry knew she was a good person, Slytherin or not, and
he wanted to give her all the love she deserved, and strangely, she
wanted him to have her sister and best friend too, as she worried so
much, and wanted them to have someone special and powerful too, and
he was pretty sure he was being greedy as he knew Kairi would want in
on the 'weirdness' too.
Therefore, all four, five, seven?, would be perfect. Harry had always'
loved Sahara's' openness, and Ginny had that too, though she was also
shy and bashful. Luna didn't really have the openness unless someone
instigated a friendship, she would stay hidden, and she seemed to be
quite shy too. Then Daphne, cool and collect, but with something deeper;
a longing to find her place in the world and look after her younger sister
and best friend. Harry had never really had thoughts of an actual
relationship before; he wasn't really sure how to have one, as he was the
King of Bandit, so was he even supposed to have a girlfriend, let alone
four or more?
"Good morning," chimed Sahara suddenly.
Harry looked at her grinning face in surprise. "Good morning," he replied,
as she seemed to pull Luna, Daphne, and Ginny closer to her for comfort
as she kissed his lips in greeting.
"This feels, nice," she smiled. "Can I ask you something?" she asked
quietly.
"Sure, whatever you want," he smiled.
Sahara grinned nervously. "Do you ever think about having a proper
relationship? I mean, well… err, I've only ever been with you, well, err,
okay I've been with a few girls, but that was just sex, except maybe
Kairi... she's always… well… I mean, I, err, I'm always thinking about
you. I have a connection with you, well, fact is I have a connection with
Luna, Daphne, Kairi, and Ginny too, well I've never gotten along so well
with many people and well, err, and I'm blabbering now, aren't I?"
Harry chuckled kissing her forehead. "I think about you a lot too, and
then I met Ginny, well, I felt a connection and then there's Luna, and
Daphne, and who can't love Kairi? It was like I was being guided to all of
you. And right now, for reasons I can't understand, I would rip apart
anyone who dared try to hurt any of you, and I don't think it's just
because you're my friends. It seems more primal, or protective."
Sahara giggled softly, smirking. "Maybe it's the Ritual Bonding?" she
suggested amusedly. "You know with Brood, and likely Saiyans, more
than one can bond in magical marriage."
Harry chuckled. "Don't joke like that; I'm the Bandit King… I have
adventures awaiting me around the world."
Sahara smiled. "We could come with you? It must get awfully lonely just
you and Kir," she grinned. "Oh, where is he anyway?"
Harry smiled kissing her nose. "Kir's with June… she'll take care of him,
and they've fast become pretty good friends. He's trying to get her to help
with his turning into a human deal, and I'm routing for him," he said
while she laughed gently. "As for you girls coming with," he let out his
breath. "I would actually enjoy your company… you're right, it
sometimes does get lonely."
"You get lonely," interrupted Luna to their surprise as her eyes snapped
open. "I get lonely too. I don't have many friends."
"Me too," agreed Ginny as she opened her eyes. "I have some nice friends,
but most aren't that great, and I think I'm, no, I think I've fallen in love,
we spent two nights here together, and I've never been happier."
"Same goes for me," piped in Sahara. "I think I've always loved you as
more than best friends Harry, and this weekend, I've met these beautiful
girls I have fallen for too."
"I love all four of you," chimed Luna. "It hurts just thinking about life
without any of you," she said sadly.
"Aww, I love you too Luna," said Sahara kissing her soft lips while
Daphne embarrassingly snuggled deeper into them, letting her tongue
gently trail Harry's powerful chest, while her middle finger worked its
way into Luna's fanny, as she was too embarrassed to speak her feelings
just then, she could express them in another way.
Harry grinned, "This will be a weirder relationship than if Rose and the
twins get along… but, I can honestly say, I'm in love with you girls, but,
oh, shit!" he suddenly declared, as he looked at his watch. "I only have
one and half hours till class."
Sahara giggled as she climbed off him with the other girls who were
panicking too, and blushing as they were all naked. "Don't worry, one
and half hours is ages away," said Sahara. "Do you think the headmaster
will let me stay here for a while?" she asked as she squeezed Daphne,
while giving her a hug from behind, and squeezing her amazing tits.
Harry shrugged as he scrambled out of bed. "I don't know, err, maybe if
you help out in class," he nodded. They all took a quick shower together
and dressed in gi; Harry and Sahara's' long sleeved, Ginny's, Daphne's,
and Luna's short sleeved.
Harry, Ginny, Luna, and Sahara hurried to the Great Hall for breakfast
with twenty minutes to spare, with Daphne quickly heading off to join
her younger sister, and her best friend, as the dark-skinned girl wanted
details, and Daphne quietly spilt everything to them to their awe and
amazement as they were jealous and wanted to join them next time.
Meanwhile, Ginny and Luna spotted Rose sitting with Shoulin and Hayne
at the Gryffindor table, the two girls giggling happily, and Hayne
laughing. Hermione and Arctic were both sitting together chatting with
big grins on their faces. The two girls quickly grabbed Harry and Sahara,
and dragged them over to the table.
"Wow, I think they're getting along great," said Sahara, surprised. "Hey
look, your sisters holding Shoulin's hand under the table," she added in
an amused whisper.
"Oh, I think they're getting along better than great," said Ginny amusedly.
"Well, I have to sit with the teachers, so I'll see you darlings in a bit," said
Harry heading for the teachers' table.
"I have to sit with my house," said Luna smiling brightly as she went to
her table and Ginny and Sahara sat at the Gryffindor table together.
"Hey, where have you and Harry been all weekend?" asked Shoulin
suspiciously.
"And Ginny and Luna?" agreed Rose. "Then I don't remember seeing
Daphne around either."
"Err, we've just been, err," Sahara rubbed the back of her neck nervously.
"Hey, you three seem to be getting along great," she commented to the
twins and Rose, changing the subject.
Shoulin nodded eagerly. "We spent all of yesterday in our room," she
admitted with a cheeky grin.
"Oh, so you three are a full fledge item now?" asked Sahara.
Rose nodded nervously. "It was weird at first but I like them… a lot," she
admitted blushing sheepishly.
"And we like Rose," nodded Hayne with a grin.
"So how about you two?" asked Sahara eyeing her brother and Hermione
with a grin.
Both blushed. "Well, we're dating," replied Arctic smugly. "Hermione is
brilliant, especially for someone living in such a primitive society. What
about you 'dear' sister? What have you been up to? No details wanted."
Sahara smirked lowering her voice. "Harry, Luna, Ginny, Daphne, and I
are having a proper relationship with each other, probably adding in
Kairi, and maybe two other girls, Daphne 'likes', and wants out of some
silly Caster 'pureblood' mumbo-jumbo," she told them; she and Ginny
grinning happily. "We might even be in the Ritual Bond… but if we are,
something is missing, but we'll find it."
"Wow, Gin," laughed Rose. "How are you going to tell your parents you're
dating some girls and a boy?"
Ginny blushed while looking worried. "I don't know… how are you gonna
tell your dad you're dating a brother and sister?"
"What are you lot talking about?" asked June who was sitting next to
Shoulin and Gabrielle looking confused with Kir wrapped around her arm
hissing something that made Rose and June blush. "I hope I don't end up
in a weird relationship when I'm older." Gabrielle made a fake cough, and
pouted at that from next to June. "You're not weird Gabby… you're my
best friend, and I love you."
Gabrielle blushed while looking extra happy as Rose and the others
laughed, and gently teased her affectionately.
Harry was eating peacefully at the teachers table, watching his
girlfriend's when a voice interrupted. "Where were you all weekend?" it
was Dumbledore.
"Oh, err, sorry headmaster… I had a… few things to work out, and a few
of my friends were helping me out," he half lied. "Would it be okay if
Sahara stayed? I could really use the extra help; the classes are quite
large for one person? I would really like to be able to give my students
some more personal training where I can, too."
Dumbledore eyed him in surprise. "I don't see why not… it is always
good to have an extra power just in case. Oh, and Mr. King, we have an
Order meeting after school in my office."
Harry nodded. "Sure, I'll be there," he replied with a grin.
"Wow, Harry… you really are mean," said Sahara during class as they
stood together watching the class, fifth, sixth, and seventh-years running
laps on the track. "Making them run five laps, and only allowing them
five minutes to rest before you begin teaching them the 'fun' stuff."
Harry chuckled. "Well, how will they be able to defend themselves if they
stay unfit, and weak?"
Sahara grinned cheekily. "Well Luna, Ginny, and Daphne, don't seem
unfit to me… and that Tracey Davis… and Daphne's sister… wow… I still
can't believe they want in on our… relationship too."
Harry looked at her with a smile. "Well, they're not unhealthy, but they
need to get some muscle on their bones."
"You even have them wearing those weights. I remember when our
Sensei made us wear them," she replied amusedly. "We moaned for
weeks; I think he found it funny how much we protested them."
"Yeah, well they were thirty-five kilograms each, not five," he retorted.
She nodded, shrugging. "We were seven."
"Point taken."
"So, explain what you'll be doing at this meeting tonight?"
"I don't know," he replied honestly. "Probably just hearing progress
reports and crap like that, and to see if I have any advice to add."
0oo00oo0
"A source within the Death Eater ranks," Dumbledore began that evenings
Order meeting, most of the senior members were present. "He said
Voldemort," most flinched. "Is furious over Harry's actions against him…
and he has discovered that he is Rose's twin brother… as have the
papers," he said dropping down a copy of the Daily Prophet with a
picture of Harry, Sahara, her brother, Daphne Greengrass, and the twins
getting off the Knight Bus in Hogsmeade.
Harry picked up the paper laughing. "Interesting… the Knight Bus has
actually bolted their benches down and fitted in seatbelts; that's more
like it, that thing could give people brain damage."
"Really?" asked Remus looking at the paper over his shoulder. "Hah, will
you look at that? It took six kids to get them to make the bus safe to
ride," he chuckled.
"Yeah, what moron invents a bus that jumps from one side of the country
to the next in seconds, and doesn't fasten things down," he agreed
amusedly.
"Well, yes," agreed Dumbledore getting their attention back. "Foolishness,
besides, we are here to discuss Voldemort," more flinches. "Our sources
say he has a new and highly frightening allay… they don't know his
name, but apparently, he vaporized four Death Eaters for just looking at
him funny, and Voldemort seemed to actually be afraid of him too much
to even say anything. Mr. King, they said he just held out his hand and
burnt them to a crisp as though his hand was a dragon breathing fire."
Harry nodded. "It's called the Dragons Breath. It's a mystic combat magic,
and under your ministry such magic would probably be deemed dark," he
replied thoughtfully. "Do you have a description, or anything else that
could help me or the Mystics Council identify him?"
Dumbledore shook his head sadly. "He always has a cloak with a hood
up, though he does wear a silver mask."
Harry face drained of blood and his eyes went wide with fright, everyone
looked surprised at such a reaction.
"I don't like that look; that's the look of we're in deep shit," commented
Moody.
"Deep shit… more like Voldemort is now the least of our worries," he
replied grimly. "His names Feareus, unless he's a copycat because Feareus
is supposed to be locked up… he's a mystic Brood serial killer. It took
twenty mages to bring him in. He used a genie, the last in existence to
wish for immortality." The gasps of horror that ran through the room
would have been funny had the situation not been so serious. "He only
managed to make one wish before another Brood managed to destroy the
lamp…"
"You're saying we possibly have an immortal serial killer on the loose?"
gulped out Dumbledore. "And he scares Voldemort?"
"I just hope I'm wrong, but there may be a way to remove his
immortality," he replied thoughtfully. "But still, he is very powerful, and
if he found out someone managed to remove his 'Forever Life', as he
called it, he'll be worse."
"This is all we need," replied McGonagall, disgusted at the thought. "So,
how can we undo his immortality?"
Harry grinned slightly. "Leave that to me. If I tell you, Feareus might find
out and stop me… if it's not Feareus, at least the bastard will die sealed
away anyway."
They were sitting quietly, contemplating what they had been told when a
huge earth-shattering explosion rocked the castle, and the wards flared a
violent blue colour. Everyone vaulted from their seats, looking out the
windows as Hogsmeade went up in flames, and streams of energy were
deflected into the streets from the castles wards.
"Wow, I've never seen the wards doing their job before," Sirius exclaimed
in awe.
"Crap," whispered Harry as he opened a window and before anyone could
protest jumped and they watched as he vaulted across the roofs, lower
and lower with his tail trailing behind, until he hit the floor, and ran
towards the village.
"Okay, people, we need to get out there and help," said Dumbledore
hurriedly as they ran for the office door.
Harry ran fast for the gates, jumping clear over them into Hogsmeade.
People were running around screaming for their lives as over thirty Death
Eaters fired death at them, blowing up buildings. He heard evil creepy
enjoying laughter from above. Looking up he saw a brood with black
wings, horned tail and glowing red eyes through a silver mask.
"Oh, crap…" he whispered to himself. "Death Eaters first, and I'll
challenge Feareus after." He phased out, reappearing in a jump in front of
two shocked Death Eaters, with a left spinning kick, the first smashed
into a wall, sliding down out cold. He caught the second as he spun with
his heel slumping him to the ground, both bleeding heavily.
Harry gritted his teach, clenching his fists, and the Death Eaters stopped
dead, and even Feareus stopped his mindless destruction, interested.
Harry raised his right hand before the dark wizards, palm flat.
"AHHUGGHH!" he yelled as a huge blue ball of energy grew an inch from
his palm the size of three footballs before bursting free, the Death Eaters
spread, running for cover, unfortunately for them about ten were hit
dead on in an explosion of power, and wounding some others in the
backwash of the explosion. Harry looked up briefly, even through the
mask, he could tell Feareus didn't care and was probably enjoying the
show.
Harry phased out, reappearing with his fists in the stomachs of two other
Death Eaters, knocking them out, and they slumped to the ground. He
kicked out backward twice at different angles, smashing two other Death
Eaters in the face and they flew through the wall of a burning building.
He fired several smaller blue energy Ki blasts from each hand, hitting a
few Death Eaters, but many were dodged because of distance.
Suddenly out of nowhere Sahara turned up, back flipping and smashing
two more foes through a window into the burning pub: The Three
Broomsticks, and then dodged a few curses from one wizard before
punching him in the face, a loud crack reverberated through the chaos in
town and the man bounced several meters along the ground.
"Nice of you to join me," commented Harry as he jumped, legs eye level
with the last Death Eater, standing and spin kicked him over twenty
meters down the street where he bounced several more before stopping.
Harry landed lightly on his feet, looking at one of his girlfriends, grateful
for the backup, but worried about her.
"Wahahahaha!" An eerie laugh sounded from behind, and looking round
they saw the Brood that caused most of the destruction. They spun round
to face him on the ground. The panicked survivors stropped in fear, the
street covered in death, they could sense the Order had arrived but
stayed back, as this being's power was easily determined to be far greater
than any of theirs.
"What do you want!" demanded Harry. "Leave now or face me."
"Hahaha," he chuckled amusedly. "Yes, you're quite powerful too," he
nodded approvingly. "However, you are no match for me boy… you are
the one who defeated my weakling brother aren't you? Hahahaha… and
you did that by sheer fluke. Yes, you're what they call a hero," he again
nodded in approval. "Voldemort doesn't acknowledge heroes or the
young, he thinks you're weak, but I'm not narrow-minded like that fool.
One should never underestimate the young, or a hero."
He laughed some more. "So, show me what you've got… Harry, wasn't
it?!"
Feareus phased out, appearing before him, and Sahara, kicking Sahara
into a wall where she fell to her knees gasping for breath. Harry growled
as he raised his arms, crossed over his face as Feareus punched, hitting
his arms with enough force to make a sonic boom. Harry was sent
hurtling through a wall into a burning building.
"Whahahah!" laughed Feareus as he looked at the weakling wizards and
witches. He would enjoy killing them, but his eyes lingered further on
Sahara. "I'll make you suffer, girl, for daring defy me, for that filthy
monkey… one of Saiyan blood no less!"
Feareus reached out and grabbed Sahara by the neck, chocking her, as he
lifted her from the ground, when he paused, and let her drop, as he
sensed something strange. Sahara was gasping for breath when the
ground started shaking, and the building that Harry was in blew out and
around in an aura of yellow light, and there he stood, with power
bursting from him shroud in a golden yellow aura with teal blue eyes,
and golden white hair standing up in disarray with bulging muscles, and
a cold expression, and golden-white monkey tail.
"I won't let you hurt her, or these people!" growled Harry as he fired
several yellow Ki blasts; Feareus battered them all away into the sky, and
with some difficulty, as each one pushed him away from Sahara. "You'll
pay!" he roared as he fired the dragon breathe from each hand engulfing
Feareus.
When the attack let up, Feareus stood glaring at the young man that
actually hurt him. Feareus growled and roared in anger as he shot into
the sky, then forward, and down, charging the young man. They moved
faster than most could see in a volley of strikes, but it lasted two minutes
of kicks, punches and dodges when Harry was smashed into the ground,
hitting down, he made a crater impact, unbalancing the spectators. His gi
was tattered and his head, arms and legs were bleeding, blood leaked
from his mouth, he was unconscious, as the aura splashed away and his
hair returned to normal. The watching Order members noticed Harry's
blade was drawn, covered in blood, and looked to the sky to see Feareus
holding his right shoulder as blood poured out, as he hung in the air, as
he was immortal, but still susceptible to damage, and a needed to heal.
To Be Continued…
Authors Note: Hi all, I hope you're still having fun. I have the next
chapter mostly complete, so if you want to make sure you get it within a
day or two, rather than next weekend, all I ask is ten or more reviews to
motivate me.
20. Peace For Awhile
Bandit King
Chapter 20
Peace For Awhile
Harry opened his eyes, closing them instantly. The light was too bright.
Was he in heaven, was he killed? Because if so, why did his muscles ache
all over, and he had a pounding headache. In addition, he could feel
someone holding his hand. He groaned as he opened his eyes slowly,
adjusting to the light.
"He's coming around," a familiar voice said close to him. "Harry, Harry,
are you okay?" she asked worriedly.
He groaned again. "Do I look okay Luna?" he asked as he looked at the
girl holding his hand.
"No, you look terrible," agreed Sahara giggling weakly from somewhere
nearby. Looking over he saw her in another bed with Ginny and Daphne
sitting with her, both staring worriedly at him, while Luna, Tracey, and
Astoria Greengrass were by his side, pampering him. Sahara had her head
wrapped in bandages; he then realised his was too, as he patted them
while pouting.
"What happened?" he croaked out weakly.
"You stabbed Feareus before you hit the ground," Sahara informed him.
"Then he fled, that's all I know before I passed out, and woke up here."
"Oh, you're both awake," said the nurse as she exited her office, hurrying
over to Harry. "You are very lucky to be alive," she said reproachfully. "A
normal human taking a hit like that would have died on impact… could
you do something with this before I see to you?" she said pointing to his
blade. "Miss Davis saw fit to clean the blood off it," she added as he
retracted it. "Thank you," she said, holding each eyelid open in turn to
check his pupils with the light of her wand.
She then proceeded to prod him with her wand. "Well, that's good news,
the young man Arctic got here when Miss Granger called him. He said
you should both heal faster than a standard human? Though, I suspect,
like Miss… Sahara, you would like a headache potion?"
"Oh, yes please," he replied gratefully as she passed him it, and he
drained the bottle sighing in relief, even though it tasted horrible. "Thank
you."
"You're welcome, Mr. King," she replied with a small smile as she hurried
over to fuss over Sahara.
"Where is everyone?" Harry asked Luna, Tracey, and Astoria, looking his
girls over, smiling a little as it didn't take much for Daphne to convince
them into joining them, and he felt a bond rather quickly, and it could
help bring back Saiyan blood in the future, he figured to be with more
normal humans too.
"Oh, Rose just went to the bathroom," Tracey replied smiling. "And we
sent June to lunch… we told, well mostly Ginny told Dumbledore about
the Saiyan thing, as apparently, everybody had just thought you thought
a monkey tail would be funny with your staff thing, and it being
modelled on the Monkey King and everything, so never asked," she said
smugly. "It seemed to brighten his day, though… and Rose lent him a
book about the Five Races."
Harry chuckled lightly. "What about my classes?"
Luna grinned. "Don't worry, Arctic's taking them for you until you're
well… he seemed to think you were being hard on everyone. I think he
might have let them slack off a bit."
Harry sighed disapprovingly. "He's always been like that. I'll just have to
get well faster then. I can't have them slaking off."
"Oh, don't worry, Harry," chimed Sahara as the nurse left her be. "He
won't let them slack off too much, though he might try to teach them
something fun."
"Madam Pomfrey, can we leave now?" he asked hopefully.
"No, you can't," she retorted. "Well, at the least I want to hold you both
for a few hours observation."
Harry sighed dramatically as the nurse headed back to her office. "I hate
hospitals."
"Me too," said Rose from the door, grinning amusedly as she strolled in,
and leaned over, kissing his cheek. "I've been here too many times, so it's
nice to be visiting instead of stranded in a bed. You are going to be okay,
aren't you?"
"Yeah, we'll be fine," he agreed as she sat between Luna, and Astoria.
"Good. Shoulin and Hayne have gone to inform the Mystics Council about
that guy who beat you up," she told him smugly. "They'll be back in a few
hours."
"Hey, he did not beat me up," replied Harry glaring. "I wounded him too."
Rose grinned. "So, if you're, Saiyan… and can transform and all that, can
I transform like this… err, can I?"
"I can smell another power in you," said Sahara grinning at the thought.
"I bet Shoulin and Hayne would like if you could transform like that…
but, I smell… reptile, or something…"
Rose blushed sheepishly. "I was hoping Saiyan," she complained cutely.
Sahara smiled. "You have Saiyan blood too, so who knows."
"Do you think Hayne and Shoulin will help me, find out what I am?"
"Of course, they will," agreed Sahara. "I was talking to them alone
Monday morning before they went home, and they really like you.
Apparently, you're the only girl they've met who got over the fact that
when you sleep together, you're allowing incest, and you're totally sexy
and cute and sweet too, so just take care of them, okay?"
Rose blushed as bright-red as her hair. "Yes, of course, and well… err, it's
just normal nature to them, okay, it's not a very fair part of it, but I really
don't care," she replied defiantly. "And if nobody can accept that; it's their
problem not ours."
Harry chucked, grinning proudly. "See, I knew I was a good matchmaker,
but how are Hermione and Arctic?"
Rose grinned. "Hermione said she really likes him… and he gives her
these looks that say that he likes her too, but getting a boy like him to
verbally speak their feelings is hard work."
"That's my dippy brother for you," Sahara said to some laughter.
"Oh, Rose, did you get those cards?" asked Ginny suddenly, as she was
really worried about Harry and Sahara and needed to get her mind off it.
"Oh, yeah," she agreed pulling them out of her pocket. "Come on Luna,
Trace, Tori, Daph, let's take our minds off silly things," she said. "So,
who's up for poker? I brought two decks," she asked and Harry grinned
excitedly.
"Whoa," stalled Sahara. "We can't play poker against Harry; he'll beat us
easily… we'll have to play a card game that involves luck rather than
skill or he'll just win all the time and we'll all end up naked."
"Why would we end up naked?" asked Rose frowning in confusion.
"You know, when he wins a hand, we have to take an item of clothing
off, der," replied Sahara as though that was obvious, embarrassing most
of the girls.
"Well, we're not playing strip poker," giggled Rose, blushing.
"Oh," she said giggling nervously. "Normally we would play strip snap so
we have a chance of winning."
"You play strip snap," laughed Rose. "Who with?"
"Oh, we've played it with the twins, once, and a few mage friends our age
you've not met yet, a couple of demon friends, my cousin Ocean, and this
amusing demigoddess whose biggest dream is to kick her godly dad in
the balls," she replied thinking thoughtfully, and getting a few laughs. "It
was actually her idea to change the game from poker to snap, as she was
getting pissed off at Harry for winning most of the time. Oh, we'll have to
all get together sometime, get a few decks of cards and have a game
together."
Rose blushed brightly as she thought about it. "Are we allowed to get
drunk?" she asked.
Sahara nodded. "Of course, it wouldn't be as fun without the drink. We
play other games too, like spin the bottle, twister… once we even had a
pool party at my family villa in Miami with all sorts of games and water
fights and stuff with no grown-ups telling us what to do."
"You have a Villa in Miami?" asked Rose, impressed. "You should
defiantly have another party. I've not been to a proper no adults allowed
party before."
"That's an excellent idea," agreed Sahara nodding approvingly. "We'll
have a party during the summer holiday. I'll send a letter home asking
mum, as dad doesn't deal with those things, and always delegates
decisions like that to mum, but she'll be okay with it."
"So where about do you live anyway?" asked Rose interestedly.
"Oh, yeah, you probably wouldn't have noticed at my house, as we Boom
Bridged there," she grinned. "I live in Ireland, though we lived in England
till I was eleven when dad wanted to move to a small peaceful village in
the countryside, and he found what he considered the 'perfect spot', and
with magic, you don't have to worry about it too much, as you can
continue at your school, and still meet up with friends. Shoulin and
Hayne still live in England near London."
"Are we going to start the card game?" interrupted Harry amusedly.
"Oh, sorry," said Rose grinning sheepishly, opening the cards. "What shall
we play then?"
"Black Jack for money?" suggested Harry.
"Hah, no chance," retorted Sahara. "I know you like cheating at that Mr. I
can transfigure the cards."
Harry grinned impishly. "So, I cheated that casino in Monty Carlo out of
five million dollars doesn't mean I'll cheat you… plus the bastards
deserved it."
"Oh, what did they do?" asked Astoria , as that caught her interest.
Sahara and Harry laughed. "They threw Ocean out for counting cards,
then he went in and actually cheated, and because he was winning every
hand without fail and always' bet big, and wasn't even looking at the
cards 'most' times, they couldn't accuse him of counting cards, they even
had three huge men watching him constantly, but funnily none of them
checked our ages," Sahara told them.
"Awesome," said Ginny grinning proudly.
"Well, they shouldn't have been so mean when they threw Ocean out,"
Harry agreed smugly.
"Yeah, they were quite mean to her," agreed Sahara. "And since she's
Harry's biggest fan, he had to make her feel better. Well, deal the cards,
and we can play Rummy, as that's a game of chance." Soon they had
played several games and Harry had won the majority without cheating,
and it had been a few hours when June turned up halfway through with
her 'best friend', giving her brother a tight hug, Harry allowed the
younger girls to sit with him on his bed, so he could teach them some
card games.
"I swear you're too good at card games," said Tracey in amazement, as
Harry once again won the hand.
"Harry, Sahara, you're awake," chimed Shoulin and Hayne in relief, as
they entered the hospital wing with Shoulin kissing Harry and Sahara on
the cheek before she hopped up and sat with Sahara while Hayne only
patted Harry on the shoulder, and gave Sahara a nod of greeting. They
were followed by Professor Dumbledore who was smiling happily, his
blue eyes twinkling in amusement.
They were also followed by a tall man with short greying blonde hair,
and a large long red trench coat, his blue eyes twinkling just as much as
Dumbledore's.
"Master Rochin!" Harry called in surprise.
"Daddy," chimed Sahara happily.
"Hello you two," he replied happy to see they were okay. "Your mums
been worried sick sice Arctic said that psycho put you in hospital. And
Harry, I'm very proud of you fighting him like that, and before you've
fully mastered your new found powers, a most impressive feat to survive,
Feareus… and Super Saiyan? The Council will be pleased; we'll need
every bit of help we can get to re-capture him."
"Err, thanks, Rochin," he replied, embarrassed. "But it was nothing really;
I was just doing what anyone would."
"Nonsense, Harry," he replied amusedly. "You said the same thing when
you banished Morbeus," he chuckled proudly. "You don't take praise well;
most would be wearing that meddle they gave you proudly."
"Too many people died," replied Harry sadly. "It seemed too much like a
hollow victory."
Rochin walked up to Harry's bed and placed a hand on his shoulder with
pride shining in his eyes. "That's what separates the truly great from the
wannabees. It truly doesn't matter whether we get praised for our good
deeds, but the people we help with them."
"Thanks," he replied shyly as Rochin moved away over to his daughter.
"And you missy," grinned Rochin. "Are a troublemaker… but I'm as proud
of you as a father can be."
"Thanks dad," she replied blushing. "But what's the Council going to do
about Feareus?"
"Ahh, well for now I'm their reprehension with the Casters World since
we now have a mutual threat," he said grinning cheekily. "So, I'll be
staying here for a while, and I'll be able to keep you two out of trouble
and keep an eye on you… well that's what your mum wants, she'll be
visiting weekends. Professor Dumbledore has kindly offered me an
apartment here at the castle. Well, I'll be seeing you two later. I
understand your brothers finally gotten himself a girlfriend and I would
like to meet her and embarrass him... you know fatherly business," he
grinned as he walked back to Dumbledore.
"Dad," moaned Sahara. "You're not really going to embarrass him, are
you? He has a whole class of students right now."
"Oh, really," his grin widened and became a little sinister. "I'll have to see
this; I bet he's going easy on them; I'll have to keep my eye on him. Well
shall we Albus?"
Dumbledore chuckled in amusement. "Certainly, the DC class is this way
if you'll follow me," he said leading the way.
"Oh, poor Arctic," giggled Shoulin as she slipped off Sahara's bed, and
surprised Rose as she slid gracefully onto her lap for a cuddling. "I'm glad
my dad wasn't chosen to come here. Sometimes I wish they never
accepted positions in the Council. I think they only did it to have extra
opportunities to embarrass us. At least our mums only work as Watchers
for magical creatures."
Sahara nodded sadly. "I know, your mum still works with mine with the
Harpies, don't she?"
"I think she does," piped in Hayne as he sat on the edge of Harry's bed
after stealing a kiss from Rose to her delight at her affectionate boyfriend
and girlfriend. "So, Harry you really fought Feareus," he asked impressed.
"Yeah, well I wouldn't be in here if it was just Death Eaters now, would
I?" he retorted rolling his eyes.
Hayne chuckled nervously. "I guess not, just wanted to hear it from the
Saiyans mouth so to speak."
"Oh, talking about that," interrupted Sahara. "Rose wanted you and
Shoulin to help her find out whether she can awaken too? Being as she's
Harry's twin, it seems logical. And if she can, you two will have to sort
her out, if you know what I mean?"
"Oh, we'll help," agreed Shoulin, kissing her surprised girlfriends lips
while Hayne nodded in agreement. "But I don't know what you mean by
sorting out."
Sahara rolled her eyes. "It happens to all Brood, and if Harry wasn't
joking, Saiyans too, around the age of fifteen, and you two helped each
other, and my idiot brother locked himself in his room... luckily the
internet was pretty speedy," she giggled as they blushed brightly realising
what she meant.
"Err, I'm confused?" said Rose frowning.
"To put it bluntly, you may go into heat," answered Sahara grinning as
Rose blushed brightly.
"Well, which of you did Harry have?" asked Rose embarrassing his girls.
"Hahahaha, he had all four of them," said Hayne laughing as he looked
over Ginny, Luna, Sahara, and Daphne.
"Shut up," said Harry glaring as he climbed out of bed, only wearing his
trousers, he stretched out his arms and legs, and even tail.
"Holy crap," declared Shoulin. "I've never seen muscles that powerful
before. Saiyans were truly something else."
Harry shrugged nonchalant. "Well, I'm out of here. I'm going to my class
to get my staff, since I haven't got anything, I can do without hurting
myself I'm gonna try and learn some Caster magic, or how to beat
someone to death with her."
"Oh, we'll come too," said Sahara climbing out of bed wearing her gi
bottoms, but only her spandex under top, neither wearing shoes or soaks.
She fully stretched the cranked her muscles in her shoulders and wings,
and tail as she was still transformed as it would help recovery. "Come on,
I can't wait to watch Harry screw up."
"Hey," he moaned as he led their laughing party away. "I might be
brilliant first try, and even if I'm not, practice makes perfect, right, Gin?"
he asked putting his arm around her.
"Exactly," she agreed with a grin as she put her arm around his waist.
"And you'll have me, Luna, Daphne, Tracey, Astoria, Rose, Gabby, and
June to help."
"See," he grinned sticking his tongue out. "Ouch," he moaned after her tail
whipped his butt. "Do you want me to return the favour?"
"Whoa, hell no," she said looking fearful. "You could knock me through a
wall with your tail with your strength if you're not super careful," she
said as she felt it rubbing against her. They all laughed amusedly.
"You two should perhaps put some more clothes on?" suggested Rose,
realising they were almost at the class.
"What!" demanded Harry shaking his head. "My muscles are aching; it
will hurt too much," he said as he opened the classroom door finding
Dumbledore sitting behind his desk, and Arctic standing near his dad,
while he looked to be trying to get all of the students to use some magic.
"Come on," moaned Rochin. "Combat fire is the easiest element to use.
Burn the air, click those sparks into life," he said raising his hand, and
clicking his fingers, with a spark, he was forming a ball of fire before it
extinguished. "Just want the fire, ask for it, that's it, Daniel, you've got it,
see that he's done it," he said grinning proudly as the boy stared in awe
and shock of the small ball of fire in his hand.
"What are you doing?" asked Harry standing next to him, suddenly all the
students, mostly the girl's eyes bulged out of their heads as they stared at
him.
"Oh, hey Harry," he grinned. "I was just teaching them how to use some
Elemental Magic."
Harry shook his head in amusement. "I wasn't going to start them on stuff
like that until next month."
Rochin shrugged, grinning cheekily. "So, you got let loose, what are you
doing here? Shouldn't you and Sahara go to 'your', 'room', and get some
rest?" he asked making it perfectly clear that he knew Harry and Sahara
were staying in the same room. "Look at you, you have a black eye,
several large and horrible looking bruises on your body, and your heads
wrapped in bandages."
Harry blushed. "I err, just came to get my staff, as Dumbledore didn't like
it smashing through walls to come to my call, as she doesn't know how to
use the doors," he said. "We'll leave then," he said heading for his desk,
opening his top draw he pulled out the metal looking rod the size of a
wand. "And before anyone smarts off, teachers are allowed wands out in
this class." He glared at Arctic.
"How'd you even know I was gonna say something," he asked.
"I know you too well, mate," chuckled Harry. "I also know Shoulin was
going to say the same thing.
She giggled guiltily. "Well, it would have been funny."
"Totally," agreed Rose. "I was going to as well."
"Hey, can you lot go now," interrupted Rochin. "You've already
interrupted the flow of my lesson."
"Okay okay, we're going," said Sahara as she grabbed Harry by the arm
and they all followed. "Bye dad, see you at dinner."
Dumbledore sat watching amusedly, he sure had never met a more
interesting group of people before, and listening to Rochin explain
combat magic was very fascinating. It seemed a shame that he had to
meet these people under such dangerous times; it seemed there was a lot
to learn from them, compared with the small bit from his world.
"Wingardium Leviosa!" said Harry swishing his staff in wand form, and
flicking, levitating a quill. They were practising in the library; however,
the librarian did not appreciate all the noise so moved on to Harry's
common room.
"Brilliant. I think you've got that one down," chimed Rose excitedly.
"Yeah," agreed Ginny happily giving him a kiss that seemed to be going
overboard.
"Hey," moaned Sahara. "You're supposed to be learning spells with your
staff, not how far down Gin's throat you can stick your tongue," she said
giggling as they pulled away grinning impishly.
"Okay then, what next?" asked Harry. "How about summoning and
banishing things?"
"Okay," agreed Rose. "Just like this," she said readying her wand. "Accio
book," she said and a book the other side of the room flew into her
hands. She then returned the book. "Now you try."
Harry nodded. "Accio book," he said waving his staff. The book wobbled
but didn't do much else, frowning he tried again. "Accio book!" he tried
louder. The book wobbled more this time but stayed put. "It won't come,"
he said sadly.
"Of course, it will," said Luna nodding supportively. "I'm sure you can get
it this time; you'll get a kiss if you do."
Harry grinned. "Accio book!" he said, the book flew at him and he caught
it. "Ha, I did it," he said eagerly as he claimed his kiss from Luna,
snogging her for a minute.
"Well, we know how to motivate you now," said Shoulin giggling
amusedly, as he had quite a few girls eager to pay him for his
improvements.
Harry shrugged while grinning impishly. "So, what's next?"
Soon he could summon, banish and levitate objects, but he found
transfiguration easy being able to do small things without a wand, and
each time, one of his girl's kissed him eagerly for accomplishing his tasks.

21. Shenrah
Bandit King
Chapter 21
Shenrah
Over the next few weeks after Harry and Sahara were declared by the
school nurse to be in full heath once again, so they continued with
teaching Defence Class together, though Sahara's dad had an annoying
habit of coming to classes to watch.
But on a nicer front, Rochin really liked Arctic's' girlfriend when they
finally met, and they got on well, of course Rochin did enjoy
embarrassing his son, with talk about him when he was a baby, and the
funny things he used to do.
Things were relatively normal around school and Feareus hadn't been
heard from since his attack on Hogsmeade where over half the
population of the village were killed, luckily not many people lived there,
so that was only a small handful of people, but even that many deaths
was too much.
Rose was annoyed. She couldn't lift Runic-Bang, even at wand size, and
pouted cutely. She had actually looked forward to having a cute little
monkey tail. Shoulin teased her with a kiss, as it was just her, Harry, and
Rose together in his classroom.
"Maybe you're part Elf?" Harry suggested teasingly. "It would explain
your bratty-ness all those years ago."
"Elves are bratty?" Rose asked as she rested sweetly in Shoulin's arms.
"Extremely so," Shoulin confirmed. "And they have a great sense of pride
and nobility, and they harbour a huge boner of resentment for the
Celestials."
"Maybe, I have some godly power in my blood?" Rose asked hopefully.
Harry laughed and shrugged, and before they realised it his hair flashed
up into golden white spikes, with his tail fur taking on the same colour,
and his eyes flashing a teal blue, and a golden yellow aura surrounded
him. He moved, his fist connected with Shoulin's side, and she went
flying into the far wall, and Rose's eyes widened as she struggled as Harry
lifted her from her feet by her throat.
"Sometime, it's the hard ways that show our true selves," he said
throwing her to the side where she gasped for breath, and looked up to
see Shoulin with twin sets of delicate looking wings, thin and long, they
were such a pale blue they were almost white, and with those same
scales from under her pale blue eyes, trailing down her cheeks, and on
her hands into claws.
Rose was pretty sure she would have to see this side of her girlfriend
more often, as three whip-like tails lashed out from behind her, longer
than her body was tall by two. The fight was severely one sided, as Harry
was toying with her. He was knocking Shoulin around like she was a rag-
doll."
"Harry, please, stop this, please don't hurt her any-more!" Rose cried out
in anguish. "Please, Harry!" she roared and a coldness swept the chamber,
with sparks of white to black light.
Harry and Shoulin paused their fight and turned to Rose in shock, as they
saw the pitch-black eyes, and semblance of horns as they faded as Rose
dropped to her knees, in confusion.
"D-did you see that?" Shoulin asked in awe.
Harry could only nod in awe and surprise. "Yeah, I honestly thought we
were just going to piss her off, not see something like that."
"What's going on?" Rose asked as Harry's golden power splashed away,
and Shoulin's dragon-half form melded away.
Shoulin looked guilty. "Although, Harry is a lot stronger than me; I could
put up a better fight than that, silly," she said rushing over to her
girlfriend and smiling, as she pulled her into her arms. "Looks like yours
and your brother's blood is good for an awakening, as it seems an
ancestor of yours also made it with a celestial… meaning a family
member was… well, a -demi-demon, and a pretty strong one too by that
energy."
Rose looked from her girlfriend, to her brother in shock. "Is that a good
thing?" she whimpered, and accepted her girlfriend's lips on hers.
"That's a good thing, Rose," Shoulin said, kissing her girlfriend deeply
while Harry smiled and slipped from the room, to give them some
privacy, ass they were all over each other.
It was the weekend just after Valentine Day where Harry, Ginny, Luna,
Daphne, Tracey, Astoria, and Sahara had a very enjoyable night. Harry
slipped out from under them at five O' clock in the morning and slipped
into his usual black with orange-yellow coat. He had a job to complete
and now seemed as good a time as any.
"Harry!" whispered Ginny; her eyes open sleepily staring at him in
wonder. "Where are you going?"
"Shh, I'm just off to Malfoy Manor," he replied. "The Bandit King needs to
get something."
"Oh, can I come," piped in Sahara, her eyes blurrily snapping open.
Harry chuckled lightly. "No, I'll be quicker by myself, and it will be easier
for one to go unnoticed than two. Why don't you two wake the others,
and fool around until I get back. I'll only be a couple of hours."
"Oh, I like that idea," said Ginny, capturing Sahara's' lips with hers and
the two, snogging passionately didn't notice Harry slip out of the room,
heading quietly for the entrance hall.
"So, this is it," hissed Kir, poking his head out at Harry's collar. "Hopefully
this works," the snake nodded.
"Let's pray," agreed Harry with a hiss as he ran lightly through the
corridors. "But I thought you were still with June, trying to teach Gabby
parceltounge while you try to turn into a human?"
"I can't leave all the adventuring to you," he replied and likely would
have shrugged if he had shoulders. "June and Gabby are amazing friends
and really fun to stay with, but I have to also look out for you, and they
won't miss me for a few hours."
Harry soon jumped the last of the stairs, landing lightly and without
noise at the bottom in the entrance hall.
"It's no wonder you're such a good thief," commented a voice to his right,
looking he saw Rochin standing there smirking. "You're quite stealthy."
Harry shrugged. "I have to be some place and didn't want to wake
anyone."
Rochin nodded. "Be careful," he said as he walked up the stairs. "And
good luck," he added as he turned to see Harry running out the door.
Rochin sighed as he headed back to his room.
It only took Harry a few minutes to come across Malfoy Manor, and he
climbed up into a large open window, landing he proceeded silently
towards his destination. He wanted to be out before sunrise.
As he walked through the dark hall, he trod on something that crunched,
looking to the floor he saw blood and small bones when a voice in
another room caught his attention.
"Oh, but Lucius," a creepy voice hissed. "My Master said not to eat you,
he did not say I can't fuck your bitch while I munch on her… the house
elves were not very appetising." Harry heard a woman whimpering as he
neared the door, his curiosity getting the better of him.
"Le-leave my wife alone," a man stuttered his demand. Looking into the
room through the ajar door, Harry could see Lucius Malfoy with a
bleeding gash on his head, crumpled on the floor wearing black silk
pyjamas near the large four-poster bed. He saw Mrs. Malfoy naked with
small cuts all over her body, leaning her back against the wall with a
look of pure horror on her face.
Harry could see why, as a blue-grey man of about 6'5" stood leering over
her, his small knob standing to attention. His skin looked dead and
decaying; his tattered ears pointed, and bat like wings on his back, and a
horrible creature, and member of the elf family, or more precisely, a
member of the Orcan people - an Okraruz. His red eyes bored into the
blonde woman's pale blue as he placed his hand on her crutch forcing
two of his claw-like fingers into her, and she screamed and cried as blood
poured from her, unable to do more through fear.
The Okraruz put his other hand on one of her breasts squeezing tightly.
He took one of her nipples in his fingertips and squeezed so tight her
scream ran chills through the bones.
"But Lucius," the Okraruz laughed looking at the horrified and worried
look on Malfoy's face. "I'm enjoying myself. I get a fuck and a tasty snack
rolled into one," he chuckled as he removed his fingers from her and
sucking off all the blood. "Emm, such a delicious woman, hahahaha! I
just can't wait to try your son, if your wife tastes this good."
The Okraruz suddenly grabbed Mrs. Malfoy's' arm, pulling her closer he
kneed her in the gut, and she screeched while doubling over and the
Okraruz took advantage, turning her round he shoved his knob up her
arse, causing her to whimper in disgust.
Harry couldn't take it any-more. Death Eaters or not, no one deserved
such a horrible fate. He burst through the door, growling fiercely. The
three occupants looked at him in shock and surprise for a moment before
the Okraruz pulled himself out of Mrs. Malfoy letting her drop to the
floor. She now showed a look of hope and gratitude while she
whimpered.
"What do you want, monkey?" the Okraruz demanded taking a few steps
closer to him.
"I want you dead, Okraruz," replied Harry.
The Okraruz gulped. "Who sent you? That blasted council? They always
ruin my kinds fun."
"No, I'm here on business, and you're in my way," he replied smirking.
"So, are you going to arrest me, monkey?" he asked.
Harry chuckled shaking his head. "Blessed be thy power," he began.
"Blazing earth, god of magma, Explosion," he said quickly. The flames
erupted all around the vile creature and exploded inwards incinerating
the evil thing, only leaving burn marks on the carpet with ashes.
"Now you," he pointed to Lucius. "Lead me to all of your hidden treasures
or I'll kill the woman," he said picking her up off the ground, Lucius
gulped. "Hah, only joking," he grinned. "Blessed be thy nature, god of
mercy, truant of life, Recover!" an encompassing blue light flashed and
span around the woman, healing all of her wounds, and after it faded he
wrapped her in a silk blue robe that was hanging on the door. "There
good as new."
"Who are you?" demanded Lucius suddenly.
"That's no way to treat your saviour," he replied smugly. "But if you must
know, my name is Harry King."
Lucius gulped; it was the one with Saiyan blood that wounded Feareus.
"Thank you," he forced himself to say. "How may we repay you?"
Harry suddenly grinned. "I'm looking for something you have that doesn't
belong to you, take me to where you would hide such things and we'll
call it even."
Lucius glared for a second before nodding. "Follow me," he said leading
out of the room.
"Come along Mrs. Malfoy," said Harry taking her arm and leading her
along following Lucius.
"Thank you," she suddenly whispered.
"It's okay," he replied. "But I'm afraid you two are in way over your
heads."
Lucius snorted. "Thanks for reminding us… that asshole Feareus has
practically taken control from the Dark Lord."
"Maybe I can offer you a way out? If not for you, then your wife and
son?" asked Harry.
"And how would you do that?" he demanded.
Harry shrugged grinning cheekily. "The Mystics Council is more affective
at hiding people than the ministry or the Order. I could have you and
your family in the United States hidden within any state or city. All you
would have to do is turn over every Death Eater you know, and any and
all information on Voldemort's and Feareus's plans."
Lucius looked at him doubtfully. "You think I'll rat on everybody… I
would be signing my own death warrant; my families too."
"Well, like I said we can hide you," he replied. "And even give you some
bodyguards. I know of a nice little place in Texas. There's a nice demon
family that lives there, husband and wife, and their daughter, she's about
Draco's age, real nice people… they'll protect you good, and you may
even learn a thing or two about the real world to put aside your petty
hate for the mortals."
"You would expect us to stay with demons," asked Lucius disgusted.
"Things like that Okraruz?"
"Okraruz are not demons, they are members of the elf family; they're not
far off from being Orcs, but not as nice," retorted Harry. "And yes, they're
a great family, and friendly too… they look almost human, except for the
tails there's no noticeable difference."
"Lucius," begged Mrs. Malfoy. "I think we should, that broods' not right in
the head, all he wants to do is kill and destroy. I'm tired of all this crap…
that thing raped me!"
Lucius sighed as they stopped at a blank wall. "How long will it take?" he
asked.
"We'll have it all done by tomorrow. You hand over information and
you'll be on the first aeroplane to Texas with your son… I think Draco
will be pleased to leave, as he'll get to experience… being a better him, as
I know he doesn't want the life you've led him to, and Laurin is real
pretty and likes charity cases," Harry teased.
"But what about Draco's schoolwork," asked Lucius in concern as he
ignored that last part. "What about NEWTs?"
Harry shrugged. "He doesn't need them, as most jobs within the mage
community don't need magic, and if one he wants does, he no doubt
knows enough with his wand to get along, and if he needs more tutoring,
you can teach him," he said with a thoughtful shrug. "And if once this
trouble with Feareus and Voldemort has been dealt with, he could finish
at least finish his NEWTs at Ilvermorny or any Caster school, really,
couldn't he?" Harry suggested and Lucius conceded the point with a nod.
"Anyway, I understand your rich so it doesn't really matter that much.
Unless he wants to become a Watcher or something, and they have
academies for things like that?" Both Malfoy's looked confused, Harry
rolled his eyes. "Watchers are like Aurors or cops, park rangers, they're
apart of the Mystics' Council, and if he did want a career in that there are
courses to take, and the people you're staying with will happily help."
"Thank you," replied Mrs. Malfoy.
Lucius then put his hand to the wall, "open!" he commanded and the wall
faded away, revealing a lit chamber full of treasures. Harry followed
them in looking around he found an oval shaped amber stone and put it
in his pocket while grinning.
"Ahh, there it is," Harry said grinning as he saw a orange crystal sphere
about the size of a tennis ball, which had three black stars in the centre
like holograms, and picked it up and placed it in his pocket. "Well, my
mission is complete. You'll be hearing from us tomorrow morning;" he
said walking out of the chamber. "Remember the words 'Apple Source', as
your ticket out will use it as a confirmation password. He'll say that, and
you'll say 'tasty'. Don't mind the stupidity, they find passwords harder to
guess that way."
Harry returned to Hogwarts with a smile on his face. However, that smile
turned to a huge grin when he returned to his bedroom. Ginny was
sitting naked on the edge of the bed, legs open with Tracey's tongue
inside her, holding the girls head, her fingers trapped in her hair,
moaning in joy, whimpering and twitching.
Luna was sucking on Daphne's small pink nipples on her plump tits, while
cuddling, and Sahara had Astoria bent over the bed, licking her butt-hole,
shuddering in pleasure.
"I'll… err, leave you girls alone," Harry said amusedly, even though he
wanted to shag them all right then, he had other matters that were of life
and death he needed to deal with first. They all stopped what they were
doing shyly, as they stared at him.
"Why don't you just join us?" asked Luna.
"Oh, I would love to sweetie, but I have business to attend. I just came to
tell you I'm okay," he said. "I'll screw you all senseless later," he laughed
as he left the room. The girls all looked at each other, shrugged and
continued with what they were doing.
Harry soon found Dumbledore and Rochin, informed them about Lucius's
defection, and Rochin left to inform the Council, and arrange for them to
leave the country. Harry also asked Dumbledore to fetch the most trusted
members of the Order, for something special.
"So why did you call for us Albus?" demanded Molly Weasley, eyeing the
old man. The Orders most loyal were in his office for unknown reasons
that evening. "And why have you invited the kids?" she asked eyeing,
Ginny, Luna, Sahara, June, Rose, Daphne, Tracey, Gabrielle, Astoria, and
Hermione suspiciously.
"I have not yet been told myself," he replied amusedly. "Mr. King has
asked for this meeting."
Harry smiled, nodding, and standing before the Order. "Today I acquired
this," he pulled the orange sphere from his pocket.
"And what's that?" asked Moody.
Harry's grin widened. "This is called a Wishing Orb," he replied, getting
some shocked gasps.
"So, we could wish someone dead, or magic-less, or something?" Rose
asked eagerly.
Harry frowned and shook his head. "You can't make those sorts of wishes
unfortunately. Any and all Dearth Gods, and Gods of Magic would be
pretty pissed off if we ventured too far into their magic, and if you read
up on the Jin and other sorts of magic, they are bound by rules and
exceptions we cannot cross."
"But, we could wish Feareus mortal again?" asked McGonagall hopefully.
"Exactly," he agreed smugly. "Oh, and I've also got a map to Atlantis, but
that's not important right now."
"So, hurry up and summon the guardian," interrupted Rochin eagerly.
Harry nodded, holding the stone out in the palm of his right hand. "Come
forth and awaken, Shenrah." The gem glowed bright and a spiral of
orange light mist swirled out forming small human like creature. When it
stopped, floating above the stone with fairy wings was a small light-
orange creature, a bit bigger than a fairy or pixy, with dark red hair
down to her shoulders sticking up in the front, two little antennas
through her hair, twiddling on her head.
Her big cute eyes were fully orange in colour with two black stars in one,
and one in the other, and her ears were slightly pointed. She was wearing
a white tight, form hugging dress just barely concealing her crutch; she
had bare feet and a cute little smile as she looked at Harry, a little orange
feathered tail wiggled behind her, as she fidgeted with her fingers behind
her back shyly.
"Hello," she said shyly grinning with a light blush. "I'm Shenrah, or you
could call me Shen for short My Master?" she smiled. "Your wish is mine
to grant."
"Aww, she's so cute," interrupted June.
Shenrah turned in the air while blushing shyly as she looked at June.
"Thank you," she whispered embarrassedly.
"Can I make my wish now Sheni?" asked Harry smiling.
Shenrah nodded shyly as she looked back at him, looking please he chose
a nickname for her. "Yes Master, Harry."
"Okay, first don't call me master, just Harry," he said and she nodded that
she understood. "I wish for the Brood known as Feareus to become
mortal."
Shenrah nodded shyly, raised her little hand and a huge blue mist screen
appeared showing Feareus with and without his mask. "Is this the one
you mean?" she asked nervously. "I don't want to be careless like some
Jin and get it wrong. He is the only immortal Brood on earth."
"Whoa… no wonder he wears a mask, the bastards face looks like a pile
of shit," laughed Tonks amusedly.
"That's him, take away his immortality," agreed Harry ignoring Tonks's
accurate assessment of Feareus's face.
Shenrah nodded, as the stone glowed orange, and a black star faded from
the orb, and from one of Shenrah's eyes, leaving her with one in each.
"Your wish has been granted, Master… err, Harry. He is now killable.
What is your next wish?"
"Next wish?" he asked, confused. "I thought we only had one wish."
Shenrah shook her head sadly. "N-No, I had seven wises when I was born,
and four had been used, then you used the fifth, after the last wish had
be asked of me, I will die," she said sadly.
"You'll die?" asked Harry in shock.
"Y-Yes."
"Then I wish you free!" Harry said without any thought or hesitation.
Shenrah looked wide eyed in shock as another star left her right eye and
the orb as a locket of orange mist snapped away her connected fate to the
orb.
She looked upon Harry in love and admiration. "Y-you didn't even think
about it," she whimpered while many watching could only stare in shock
that Harry had just given the wish to the guardian and hadn't hesitated,
but for his girls, and sisters, knew he was rather selfless when he had to
be.
"P-please, Master, your final wish," Shenrah said proudly.
Harry shrugged. "I don't have any ideas," he told them. "Does anyone else
have a wish that isn't ridiculous?"
"Can you bring back all of those people killed in Hogsmeade?" asked
Hermione suddenly.
Shenrah looked at her sadly. "I'm afraid the wish can only bring back one
life. Death gods are mean like that, but they made that one concession."
"Can we bring back mum then?" asked Rose hopefully.
"You wish to bring back Lily Potter nee Evans?" asked Shenrah, as the last
star disappeared from her eye and the orb cracked as the orange faded
and it turned into a plane stone. "Your wish has been granted," she with a
smile as they looked upon her as four small black stars appeared in her
right eye with five in her left, but the orb remained nothing more than a
paperweight, as she was fully freed from her obligations now.
A huge swirl of orange and black light before them, made them step
back, before slowly dying down and everyone gasped as a red haired
woman stood there looking disorientated, her green eyes searching the
room in shock.
"Am, am I alive or are you all dead?" she asked frowning.
"You're a-alive," muttered Shenrah.
"Mummy!" squealed June jumping into her arms.
"June!" replied Lily hugging her daughter tightly.
"Mum?" asked Rose uncertainly, as tears shed in her eyes as Shoulin and
Hayne encouraged her.
"Rose?" she replied as she too joined in the hug. "I understand you're
dating," she added amusedly winking.
"What?" shrieked Rose in panic. "How did you know that?"
"I was dead, I've been watching you... Luci is rather... nice, and going to
Elysium, I earned as few highlights here and there."
"You can see us… all the time?" asked a very panicked Sahara.
"Well, no, but I got a little time… to help me move on, and bedroom
things are censored," she replied. Everyone seemed to sigh in relief to her
amusement, she then turned to Harry. "Hello Harry, err, Harry… I'm
sorry."
Harry smiled. "Hey, err… mum," he replied uncertainly. "This will take
time to get used to," he said sadly.
"I understand," she replied. "I'm so proud of you, and I'm glad you are
who you are. I saw as you defeated Morbeus. It happened just after I
died. I was so happy you were alive and well, yet so worried when you
challenged him. I didn't want you taken to Valhalla... its kind of selfish
that I wanted to meet you some day..."
"Its okay, Valhalla can wait," Harry replied gently. "But thanks mum, it
means a lot to me that you wanted me with you if I lost," said Harry
smiling sadly.
Lily smiled and turned to look at the rest of the room, her eyes briefly fell
on James; however, she looked away and found Rochin. "Thank you for
looking out for him," she said smiling.
Rochin chuckled. "Well, I couldn't let my daughters' best friend be alone."
"It's nice to see you alive, Lily," interrupted Dumbledore. "I should
apologize," he said. "It was my fault you died."
Lily shook her head. "No… it was Snape who killed me. He tricked us
all."
"Not me," disagreed several people the loudest being Rose.
Lily laughed. "Well, okay, Albus wouldn't listen to anyone else's doubts
about him."
"Hey Sheni," whispered Harry while the others were in a heated debate
about Snape.
"Yes," she whispered nervously blushing, as her heart pounded a trillion
beats a second as she was feeling strange, unsure of her feelings as she
had never felt them before.
"Can you teleport me out of here?"
She nodded. "Only if it's not too far, while I get used to the way my
powers work now," she agreed cutely.
"Hey take me too," begged Ginny quietly taking Harry's hand. Shenrah
nodded, her eyes flashed orange around the stars, and they suddenly
found themselves outside by the Quidditch pitch. "Thank you Sheni."
Shenrah nodded while smiling shyly. "I'm happy to help," she said.
"Well, Harry," Ginny began. "I guess that was a bit overwhelming."
He nodded in reply. "Hey Shen, Darling, you don't have to fly all the time
you know, you'll get yourself all tired," he gestured for her to ride.
Shenrah nervously flew down, landing on his shoulder and sitting down.
He then turned back to Ginny. "I don't really know what to think. She's
my mother, yeah, but well, I've not needed one in a very long time… I'm
independent, powerful and I don't intend to go and move in with them…
and she probably knows about the whole Bandit King thing, and it's
doubtful she approves."
Ginny nodded. "Well, I'm sure she won't expect you to give up the life
you have now… our girls and I don't… we love you Harry, and we love
you because of who you are, not just because of what you look like or
what blood runs through your veins."
"Thanks, Gin," he smiled at her and gave her a small kiss, then they
began walking back towards the school. "I love you too… though that
makes things more complicated, because I never expected to fall in love
with anyone, and my journey isn't really finished."
Ginny giggled. "Well; now you get some super cute travel companions?"
Harry smiled. "I think that will be fun…"
"…"
"You're worried about what your mum will say aren't you?"
"…" She nodded.
"Well, just tell her the truth I guess, or you could lie," they laughed.
"Anyway, we're all going through a bonding of sorts, no matter which
one of you has a child you'll all be biologically the mother, at least no
matter what she'll have loads of grand-kids someday, and the only thing
that will differ is you human girls will likely pass on the Saiyan genes
while Sahara or Kairi would be more hit and miss."
Ginny gigged. "Hopefully we won't have to deal with that for a long
time," she said grinning.
Harry laughed putting his arm around her shoulders. "I totally agree with
you there, as I am way too immature for any adorable babies any time
soon." They laughed amusedly while Shenrah listened with a small smile,
sitting on Harry's shoulder, and snuggling to his neck in adoration.
The next day Rochin went to Malfoy Manor with some other members of
the council and they gained a lot of information. Draco Malfoy was taken
out of school, and though they didn't like it, all of their robes were left,
and a completely new wardrobe of muggle clothes replaced them. They
were then sent to Texas like Harry promised by aeroplane with two mage
bodyguards, and Harry heard that they freaked out that muggles without
magic could fly, which was highly amusing, and made Harry wish he was
there to see it.
After Lucius had given over names of prominent Death Eaters, the
Mystics Council raided and arrested all of them while they were at their
homes. The Wizarding World was in shock when it was discovered
another magical faction had started arresting suspected Death Eaters, and
Cornelius Fudge, the Minister of Magic was condemning such actions
taken by outsiders, though most of the wizarding community didn't seem
to care what he thought, all they cared about was the fact Death Eaters
were being punished.
In addition, the Mystics Council from information gathered from Lucius
Malfoy, and other Death Eaters that were hopeful for lighter sentencing
had given evidence that Minister Fudge had been taking bribes from
Death Eaters ever since he became minister, and the council 'accidentally'
informed the Daily Prophet and several other wizard papers and
magazines.
One month after the arrests, Harry had started teaching Combat Magic
within his classes, proper, and increased everyone's homework, in other
words doubled their weights to their horror.
Shenrah had gotten used to being around people, namely Harry, and his
girls, and although they were not aware of it, had watched them secretly
while they were doing things in bed. She was just curious of course, and
it wasn't like she could help it, as she lived with Harry as she had
nowhere else to go, and she loved them dearly.
Harry was getting along okay with Lily, and she visited every Sunday.
She had reluctantly moved back in with James, though both seemed
confused as to what they should do or where their relationship stood. It
wasn't like it was easy, especially when one of you had come back from
the dead, and the other was a prick, but Rose and June were overly
happy with having their mother back.
It was nice, Harry knew, as his mother stopped by and he made sure to
hold her within his arms for as long as she wanted. He told her stories,
and about his life, and the mischief he got up to while she told him about
herself, and some funny stories about her time at school, but was rather
vague when it came to Elysium, but it seemed she may have made a
friend she was close to and would miss, but she knew, as long as she did
right by the universe she would go back someday, hopefully after a long
and fruitful life with her family (not including James).
To Be Continued…
22. Super Saiyan
Bandit King
Chapter 22
Super Saiyan
Over the months leading up to June there were no Death Eater attacks;
no sign of Voldemort; no sign of Feareus, and all was quiet. The students
at school were in good spirits on the last day of school. Harry, Sahara,
Ginny, Luna, Rose, Shoulin, Hayne, Arctic, Hermione, Daphne, Tracey,
and Astoria were all going to Miami come the next weekend to stay at
Sahara's family villa for a party they planned on having free of adults.
Harry and Sahara had already invited lots of friends, including Kairi, and
even her brother, Grey, as he was Harry's sparring rival, and wanted to
test out his Super Saiyan powers personally.
Harry was just walking through the corridor towards the Great Hall for
lunch, Shenrah was sitting on his head, her favourite place to ride, and
he was holding Sahara's hand, while Ginny and Luna walked with them
holding each other's hands, as they planned on meeting their other girls,
and friends to spend the last day at school together.
"Harry!" shouted Rochin, gaining his attention as he rushed towards them
from a crossing corridor. "Harry… we have a problem," he panted.
"Feareus is attacking Diagon Alley. There are three brood fighting him,
several mystics and mage trying to help the Aurors protect people from
him, and the fifty or more Death Eaters and Okraruz. They've requested
any available warriors to help the fight."
"Then we'll come too," said Sahara.
"No!" said Rochin. "You may be good and strong but you're not skilled
enough, and Ginny and Luna are even worse than you."
"Hey, we can help," retorted Ginny. "We are very good at blessed magic
now with Harry and Sahara and the others teaching us, and Kairi has
stopped by a few times and helped out with our training, so we can help
heal the injured, and even shield people from stay spells."
"Yeah," agreed Sahara. "And I can fight the Death Eaters and Okraruz;
they'll be easy to take out."
"Don't worry, Rochin," piped in Shenrah. "I'll look after them, too," she
said flying off Harry's head and landing on Luna's' shoulder.
"What's your opinion?" he asked Harry.
He scratched the back of his neck nervously looking at the girls. "If I say
no, they'll be mad at me and come anyway."
Rochin sighed. "Okay… I suppose they can help the innocent civilians.
Follow me. Dumbledore's made us a Portkey, and Rose, Shoulin, Hayne
and Arctic should be waiting."
The four nodded and hurried after him, through the halls. "Gin, Luna,
you're now allowed to remove your weights," said Harry as they hurried
around a corner. Ginny and Luna nodded and soon pulled off their wrist
waits dropping them to the ground as they continued running. As they
stopped at the gargoyle guarding the headmasters office, they removed
their ankle weights and robes revealing their school skirts, and shirts, and
removed their ties.
The gargoyle opened and they ran up the moving stairs to find them all
waiting, plus Hermione, Daphne, Astoria, and Tracey, glaring at them, as
they knew if not for their own initiative they would have been left out,
and they had already taken off her weights and robes.
"I see we are not to persuade them otherwise?" asked Dumbledore when
they barged in.
Rose was stood with wild white hair twisted down her back, and long bat
like wings at her waist, with black scales around her eyes, and black
where the whites of her eyes should be and whites for her pupils with
black dots in the centre. Her tail was pale and long, and bladed tipped in
black, and her fingers were longer, and clawed. Her teeth were sharp and
fanged while her brow was ridged, and she was stunning.
"Harry," interrupted Rose hugging him tight, where he wrapped his arms
around her, and her wings folded around him. "We just heard… Feareus
wants you in a fight… he's saying he's going to destroy you," she cried.
Harry held her tightly, letting a frightening primal growl like roar escape
his lips. "Not a chance," he growled. "I've been training hard. If either of
us is to be destroyed it shall be him."
Rose pulled back, smiling teary eyed. "You think you can win?"
"I have too," he replied giving her a reassuring smile. "I'll make him pay,"
he said kissing her lips tightly before pulling back, and pulling Hayne and
Shoulin into their arms before sneakily slipping free, after kissing Shoulin
on the cheek, and patting Hayne's shoulder while they nodded to protect
their Demoness.
"Let's get going then," said Arctic impatiently. "We have an evil villain to
stop, and I don't think he's going to wait around all day, like his brother
did."
"He is right," nodded Dumbledore, standing up with a copper pipe in
hand, he held it out, and everyone put a finger on the pipe. "Three…
two… one…" and they disappeared to reappear amongst explosions.
Looking around at Diagon Alley was disgusting, blood, bones and bodies
everywhere, buildings in ruins and on fire, as London shook.
Death Eaters were all over, dead or still fighting mages, wizards and
witches. "Oh my god," whispered out Hermione in disgust and horror.
Looking round Harry finally saw his target, standing on the rooftop of
Gringotts looking smug. "Bastard!" roared Harry shooting into the air
towards his target, hitting the unsuspecting murderer with several blue Ki
blasts. The smoke cleared to reveal Feareus bleeding from the sneak
attack, and glaring at the floating Saiyan in front of him, as Harry had
taught himself to fly without wings as he needed to overcome that
downfall, and honestly didn't know it was possible to fly with ki, and
only did so when Rochin pushed him into the ravine.
Feareus growled. "So, you show yourself finally," he laughed. "It's a pity
boy, I see much potential in you… you could have someday made a
worthy foe."
Harry smirked. "It's over," he growled as he flittered, and smashed his
right fist into Feareus's face, knocking him back from the bank, but had
to dodge back twice to avoid having his guts cut open by clawed hands.
Then Feareus hit down at the banks entrance as Harry pulled around and
kicked out, smashing Feareus in the shoulder, causing him to land
painfully at the entrance of the bank.
"Ahh, you bastard," screamed Feareus enraged. "First the sneak attack
when I didn't even know you had arrived, and then this, you insufferable
brat!"
"Whoa, got your knickers in a twist," teased Harry. "Get with the times,
the good guy's cheat too."
Feareus growled menacingly. "I'll make you suffer, Harry King!" he shot
at the young Saiyan with kicks and punches; they fought, dodged and
blocked with the occasional hit to the face or gut, Feareus dodged barely
avoiding a gash with bladed claws of ki energy.
"Wow," said Ginny as she, Astoria, and Luna searched for survivors and
began healing, with Sahara close blasting Death Eaters or any other evil
creature that wondered too close.
"Hey, this girls alive," Astoria interrupted, kneeling beside a small girl,
and began the blessed healing while Ginny conjured a stretcher, they
scanned her to make sure the girl could be moved before placing her on
the stretcher. Hermione, Daphne, and Shoulin then came from hiding out
of the way to take the girl. They had arranged a system where Luna,
Astoria, and Ginny would heal and get survivors on stretchers while
Sahara defended them, and Hermione, and Daphne would then come and
take them to safety, to Tracey, and some others who knew proper healing
magic, while Shoulin defended them.
"Harry!" they all cried out as he smashed into the floor, then sighed in
relief as he got up and fired a massive yellow beam of energy scoring a
direct hit.
"This is kind of scary," commented Shoulin as she, Daphne, and Hermione
made their way with the girl away from danger with Daphne using her
magic to calm the girl, and fix her as best she could.
"Yeah, I never thought I would ever witness such a fight," agreed
Hermione, looking around at the Aurors, Brood, and mystics fighting
with Death Eaters, and some horrid looking blue-grey creatures that kept
eating people they killed or even that others killed.
Arctic stood facing three Okraruz, the dark bastards as he liked to call
them threw fire balls, each hitting him. "Ahhhuuugg!" he roared as he
sent a blue-white Ki wave, and it swallowed one completely eradicating
it, his blast swirled through the smoke of their attacks and ended up
exploding as it hit a Death Eater behind the Okraruz he destroyed.
He ran at the other two, jumping up he kicked one in the face, smashing
him to the ground, where he bounced for several meters before laying
unmoving. Arctic punched at the other as he landed lightly on his feet,
but a sudden explosion rocked the ground and he missed and the Okraruz
clawed his face, blood poured slowly from the wounds.
"Ahhhhh," screamed Arctic in pain and anger, he pulled back his hand,
open and pushed it forward at top speed, his hand went through the
creature's chest, and out of its back, a black heart clutched in his now fist
as he pulled his arm out, the Okraruz looked at his own heart clutched in
the Broods fist in shock for a moment before it keeled over, dead. Arctic
dropped the creatures' heart in disgust, his tail whipping back, smashing
a sneaky Death Eater in the face, before turning and punching him into
the world of dreams.
"Arctic, are you okay?" asked Hayne who at the moment was on top of
two fallen Death Eaters sliding across the ground with the momentum he
made them fall with, a knee in each of their guts and hands tight around
their throats.
"Yeah, just a scratch," he nodded as Hayne got up from the now
unconscious Death Eaters, and both young Brood dragon breathed two
Okraruz, Arctic's behind Hayne, and Hayne's behind Arctic.
"Thanks," they both said in unison.
"This is getting ridicules," said Arctic as his Ki blast sent a Death Eater
flying into a burning building. "There's so many of them, and I've never
seen so many Okraruz before."
"I know what you mean," interrupted Rochin as he stopped two said
creatures sneaking up on the boys' with two dragons breathes. "Feareus
must have gotten them from all over Europe. We contacted the Elven
Nation of Heprocroces, about this, and apparently they are our problem
even though these things are technically elves."
Harry fired a blue-white Ki wave from above, smirking as it hit Feareus,
smashing him into one of the few standing buildings knocking it to the
ground around him in an earth-shattering explosion of blue-white energy
that took out a few Death Eaters and Okraruz nearby.
"Rapid Fire!" he roared throwing multiple green Ki blasts one after the
other into the same place Feareus still lay for a full minute before he let
up his attack. His breathing was ragged and he was bleeding from his
head when he hit the ground a while ago, and he had scratches and
bruises all over his body.
The ground around where Feareus had landed suddenly exploded, and
Feareus stood, blood leaking down his enraged face. He sent his own
black Ki wave that Harry dodge, hands out to the sides, fists clenched; a
red light energy trying to escape the gaps in his fingers. He quickly
opened his hands throwing them forwards as two huge red Ki balls
formed, merging as one as he brought his hands together, it was now the
size of several beach balls, he launched it, several sonic booms exploded
as the ball shot down in a ripple of power and energy.
Rose just tore another Okraruz's head off when she saw the huge red Ki
bomb her brother had formed; when the explosive boom sounded
everyone covered their ears, looking up at the blinding red ball.
"Everyone down!" she cried out, grabbing little Shenrah who had been
watching out for her, and went down to the ground, followed quickly by
everybody, good or bad did not want to be blown away by that. The
explosion that followed was overwhelming, gushes of hurricane force
winds washed over everyone. Rose had to fold her wings as flat as she
could to stop from getting blown away, but still, she and everybody else
slid slowly across the ground.
When it was over, Rose carefully stood, releasing Shenrah who hovered
in front of her, both looking in shock; the blast must have completely
eradicated twenty shops. In their stead a giant black pissed off looking
dragon standing in a crater.
"Oh, this can't be good," muttered Rose unhappily, her brother was
floating not too far away from the dragon, and for the first time she could
remember since being reunited she could see fear, and doubt in his eyes.
"Rose," whimpered Shenrah. "I don't want Master to die," she cried, tears
leaking from her beautiful orange star eyes. The dragon lashed its huge
tail out at Harry, smashing him full force into the ground, nobody fought
as they saw him lying there, unmoving.
"HARRY!" screamed Rose as she tried to run to him, tears pouring from
her eyes, strong arms wrapped around her from behind, stopping her
movements. Looking up she saw she was being held by a brood she had
not been introduced to before, and he looked about forty, and his eyes
looked sad and defeated, blue, with tears.
He looked down at her. "I'm sorry, he's gone," he whispered. "I can't sense
his ki any-more."
"No no!" she shook her head defiantly. "He's my brother…! He can't be
gone! He can do anything, he can't be…!" she whimpered.
"I'm sorry," the man whispered as he held her and she sobbed into his
chest. "Harry was always foolishly brave, and powerful… he had a knack
for getting people to like him without trying very hard, yet also the same
knack for making enemies."
"But, he can't really be gone," whined Shenrah looking at the man with
teary eyes hopefully. "He was so kind and amazing, and... when he
wished me free, and took me in, I became a part of his magic, so I would
be dead if he..."
The man shook his head. "You were bonded to him, but he was bonded to
the girls too, therefore they're still sustaining you," he replied sadly.
Shenrah looked defeated as she hovered watching the black dragon as it
laughed and mocked everyone for being weaklings.
"How dare you!" boomed a huge blue-white dragon, biting into the black
ones neck in her fury, the black dragon screamed in pain, shooting black
flames into the sky. "Harry was not weak!" she roared as she released the
black monster. "He is stronger than a thing like you, no matter what
happened, you won on a fluke!"
"Sahara no!" cried out Rochin in panic.
"You think he was stronger than me!" the black dragon chuckled, glaring
daggers. "I am now the most powerful creature on earth and nothing will
stop me!" He blasted her with black fire, knocking her to the ground and
stepping on her head, causing her to scream out in fury and pain,
"pathetic girl, hahahaha!
"I grow tired of this!" the black dragon roared. "None of you are worthy
of my effort," he looked down pityingly as Sahara lost her full dragon
form, and looked so small and pathetic to him.
"Try me!" a loud voice interrupted, everyone looked around in shock to
see Harry standing up, as blood dribbled down his head and he roared
out as a golden aura surrounded him and his muscles pumped up as he
pulled away his shredded top and his hair flashed a golden white and
eyes teal blue.
"I thought you were dead!" Feareus boomed.
Harry smirked. "You can't kill hope."
"Oh, hahahaha, you think you have a hope of destroying me?" the beast
demanded amusedly. "Then fight me! Super Saiyan!"
Harry laughed. "Oh, how naïve," he smirked as he floated up grinning
widely as he hovered at eye level with the black dragon, folding his arms
across his chest. "I'm going to make you pay for daring to harm my
family, and bother all of these innocent people!"
"We'll see; your little tricks don't scare me, so you can fly without wings,
and change your hair colour, big deal." A blast of black flames shot from
the black monsters mouth, encompassing Harry. However, suddenly
Harry appeared out of thin air next to the dragons face, and slice kicked
it, a huge sonic boom shock-wave emanated and Feareus was sent
tumbling to the ground with an agonizing scream of pain.
"Oh, shit," whispered Arctic. "Did he just really do that?"
"What? You mean kick a brood-dragon in the face and fell it?" asked
Hayne awed. "Well, if you saw it to I guess I'm not imagining things, as
Saiyans must have been extremely powerful monsters."
"WHAT!" roared the dragon glaring up at the calm young man. "What are
you? Who are you?"
Harry smirked as he flew down, landing next to Sahara, she looked at
him through blurry eyes with a small smile. He picked her up, cradling
her in his arms; he looked back at Feareus as he walked towards Ginny,
Astoria, and Luna who could only stare at him with teary eyes.
"I am the light to the darkness… I am the one who hears the cries of the
innocent," he began as he walked. "I am the hope of life, the protector,
when someone causes pain to another; they best hope I'm not near. I am
destiny. I am your destruction," he finished as he placed Sahara down
with Ginny, Astoria, and Luna while Daphne and Tracey rushed over to
check on her, and pamper her with love and healing magic.
"My destruction!" roared Feareus. Harry turned to see black flames
heading their way. The flames splashed into an invisible barrier, and as
they stopped a huge yellow Ki bomb shot towards the dragon, smashing
into him, knocking it down in a roar of power and pain.
When the smoke cleared, Feareus stood, no longer a dragon, holding his
bleeding left arm, looking scared. "Impossible," he whispered. "I won't
lose," he muttered. "I'll just have to go full power," he smirked as a black
energy began swirling around him, causing the wind to pick up.
Harry turned to the girls. "Leave now… please? Take Sahara and get as
far away as you can." Ginny, Astoria, Daphne, Tracey, and Luna nodded,
levitating Sahara away as Harry turned back to his opponent.
When the black wind disbursed it revealed Feareus, still human sized
though had a dragonish face and black scales covering his entire body,
and his mask had fallen off.
"Now, let's see who the strongest truly is," hissed Feareus angrily, and so
the fight truly began. Shock-waves and sonic booms echoed from every
punch, kick and block. They were moving so fast no one could even see
them move, just feel them, or the Ki blasts and magic occasionally hit the
ground or as it flew into the sky.
While the fight went on, some mystics, mage's and wizards who had
gained their senses attacked unsuspecting Death Eaters or Okraruz, and
arresting them.
Suddenly, Harry and Feareus appeared, the latter being held by the
throat smashing his back into the ground, Harry flying to drag the dark
brood across the ground. Feareus then kicked out sending Harry into the
air, blasting him with a black Ki blast. Appearing out of thin air in front
of Harry, Feareus kicked him soaring straight into Gringotts bank where
the doors shattered off with his back before he slid to a stop, as the doors
clanged down.
Harry sat up, growling in frustration, many goblin warriors stood around
watching him as he finally stood and Feareus flew in. "I am the Chaos
Dragoon," the black brood hissed, grinning. "And no mere boy shall stop
me," he laughed insanely.
"Really, is that so," chucked Harry. "Watch and learn!" he spat out in
disgust as he clenched his fists, and his golden aura boomed as he yelled
out, pumping up his strength, and his energy just kept going higher and
higher before it burst out, and blue strikes of lightning danced and
arched around his body as his spiked golden white hair thinned out and
hung looser.
"Well, if you're the Chaos Dragoon," began Harry amusedly. "Then I'm
going to be rather unoriginal, and tell you, this is Super Saiyan Two!" he
smirked as even the goblins stared in awe.
"How, how do you keep getting stronger," demanded Chaos.
Harry smirked. "I guess you just bring out the best in me?" he chuckled
amusedly.
Suddenly the goblins opened fire, smashing spell after spell into Chaos,
making Harry's smirk widen as the goblins stopped with a nod toward
Harry, he shot forward.
"What are they doing in there," demanded Rose panicked, looking up at
the man she discovered to be Shoulin and Hayne's dad, Gorton. "They've
been in there too long."
"I don't know what they're doing, but rest assured your brother is fine,"
he replied. "In fact Harry's power just sky rocketed to new heights."
Suddenly a bust of dust like a ploom of smoke burst out of the bank to
reveal Harry and Feareus, and Harry was different somehow, as he
slammed Feareus into the ground along with several silver Ki blasts
before flying in between him and everybody else.
"Harry!" shouted Shoulin, awe in her voice, "what are you?"
Harry looked back at her, smirking cheekily. "This is Super Saiyan Two,"
he chuckled as he looked her over while smirking. "Trust, I'll have this
jerk in hell, then we can all go eat, I'm starving, this bastard had to attack
right before lunch."
"Super Saiyan Two, huh?" said Rochin to his daughter and her girlfriends.
"You girls are lucky, what powerful children you'll have, whether Brood
or Saiyan," he said making them blush.
"Dad…" moaned Sahara weakly from where she sat on the ground with
Daphne holding her comfortingly from behind. "This really is not the
time or place. Harry, well, Harry," she giggled. "Is about to rip Feareus…"
"Actually! Apparently, his name is Chaos right now," interrupted Harry in
amusement.
"How the hell can he hear me? I'm way too far away," she asked in
wonder.
"Good hearing," he replied.
"Ahhh!" roared Chaos as he finally pulled himself up, red eyes blazing
fury. "How can you be stronger than me? We're at the similar level."
Harry looked at him, corking an eyebrow. "Well, obviously not because
I'm stronger than you!"
"I'll show you!" he yelled, clenching his fists. "Come forth black chaos…
heart of darkness, feed me your power," he cried out. Out of the ground
black mist rose up, seeping into Chaos as he laughed insanely, his
muscles bulged out, his height increased; double before the mist stopped.
"Now I'll show you." Chaos suddenly disappeared, then Harry felt the
punch as he was pounded into the ground with explosive force, Chaos
turned him over, onto his back with a swift kick, laughing as Harry
stared dizzily up.
"Not so strong now are you," growled Chaos as he stomped on Harry's
chest.
"AAAAHHHHHH!" screamed the young Saiyan, spitting out blood,
everyone just watched in horror as Chaos kicked and stomped on Harry,
then picked him up by the throat, smashing him into a wall.
"So, Monkey," chuckled Chaos. "Maybe I should make you watch as I rip
apart your friends and family?"
"No!" he yelled, blood dripping from his mouth. "Stay away from them,"
he added, punching Chaos in the gut, the dark brood doubled over from
the force and Harry uppercut him, sending him across the street,
smashing into a collapsed building. Harry fell to his knees, choking up
blood.
Standing shakily, Harry ground his teeth, but he knew he had little more
power to give, and wanted to hit himself for not bringing his staff.
"Harry!" whispered a small voice; his eyes were barely open when he
looked up to see Shenrah floating in front of his face with tears in her
eyes.
"Hey, cutie-pie, you should hide before he comes back," he gasped out.
"But Harry… Harry, I can help you," she pleaded. "I can temporarily
merge with you, and you'll have the power you need to win."
"You can do that?" he croaked.
Shenrah nodded. "If you'll let me," she whispered. Harry nodded. She
smiled lightly as she glowed orange mist, she shot at his chest and phased
into him, everyone watched curiously for a moment as nothing
happened, even Chaos who had gotten up. Suddenly a huge
encompassing wave of orange ki, like an explosion hid Harry from view
before blasting out, knocking all but Chaos to the ground, revealing
Harry.
Harry's golden auras was back with an orange corona, and his eyes
turned fully orange with five stars in one and four in the other with
orange sparks of lightning dancing over his body.
Harry smirked at Chaos's pissed off look, probably added too that Harry's
major wounds had been healed. "What's wrong Chaos...? It's time for you
to die."
Chaos suddenly laughed. "Do you forget Saiyan; that I am immortal?"
Now it was Harry's turn to laugh. "And the being that just merged with
me, a few months ago used to be the guardian for a wishing orb, so you
'were' immortal, you're not any-more."
Chaos's eyes went wide with fear as Harry slowly walked forward;
"impossible!" whispered the dark brood in fright.
"Time to end you," laughed Harry as he phased out, reappearing behind
his enemy. He grabbed his wings, jumping up placing both feet on his
back and pulling hard. Chaos screamed out in panic as both his wings
were ripped clean off. Harry floated back as Chaos staged forward,
staring in shock and pain at the young Saiyan with his black wings in
hand before throwing them to the ground. "You're gone."
Harry phased out again appearing behind, grabbing Chaos's tail, as his
own wrapped around his waist. He swung Chaos around by his tail,
launching him into the air, pulling his hands back to his right hip,
cupping them. "Ka…" he began as a orange-white energy ball formed in
between his hands. "Me… ha… mehaaaaaaa!" he threw his hands forward
and up, and a huge orange-white Ki wave soared at Chaos, ripping into
him, Harry fired for twenty seconds before he stopped and his beam
dissipated, leaving no trace of Chaos, as his ki had dissipated a few
seconds before.
Harry let out a breath of relief, as he looked at the watching crowd, he
smiled and made his way over as he released Shenrah, and his hair and
eyes returned to normal, and then his Super Saiyan aura splashed away
leaving him at his base form.
"Harry that was so cool," Shenrah giggled as she landed on his head,
peeking over the top.
"Thank you, Sheni… it means a lot to me that you care that much," he
replied grinning. "I care for you too," he added making her blush.
"Harry," cried out Ginny and Luna and Tracey and Astoria and Daphne,
jumping into his arms, he tried his hardest to comfort them all together.
"Whoa, easy," he replied chuckling as he held them, and kissed them all.
"Sorry," they replied sheepishly as they let him go.
"Is everyone okay?" he asked as they led him to Sahara and her dad.
"Yeah, Sahara got the worse," agreed Ginny. "But she's okay, I was so
worried when she went insane and tried to fight him, full dragon."
He nodded while looking around. "Who do you suppose is going to pay
for all the damage?" he asked amusedly.
"You will, brother," interrupted Rose running over, teary eyed as she
hugged him, and Harry happily held her tightly as she wrapped her legs
around his waist and wrapped him within her wings protectively while
he held her up by her butt, and kissed her forehead.
"I'm not paying for it," he chuckled. "I might be kind enough to restore
Weasley's' Wizarding Whizzes. I'll need some-place to remember our first
meeting, remember the place you were hitting on me?"
She pulled back, glaring playfully, slapping his arm. "Well, you're still
cute," she giggled while Shoulin snuck up on them, and slid within the
cuddling, and burring her face in Rose's chest contently with worry while
Harry kissed her cheek.
Harry laughed as he was soon carrying both girls to plenty of amusement
as he moved them over to Sahara and her dad. Mostly everyone had
started chatting or taking away prisoners, and once Harry got Rose and
Shoulin to get down, he was amused that the Council and Ministry
seemed to be fighting over criminals; it seemed to be a competition who
could claim the most. "How are you, Sahara," he asked dropping to his
knees next to her.
"I'm okay, just tired and a little sore," she replied with a grin. "How are
you?"
"I'm okay, just a few aches and bruises, and a very empty stomach," he
said, and as if to prove it his stomach roared causing some laughter, but
he smiled, and kissed her lips anyway.
"Ginevra Weasley!" a shrill voice suddenly yelled, everyone grimaced and
gulped back as Mrs. Weasley along with Lily, James, Sirius and Mr.
Weasley hurried over. "What do you think you're doing young lady, out
in the middle of a war zone?"
"Damn, I forgot about mum," Ginny whispered sheepishly before looking
at her glaring mother. "Professor Dumbledore said it was okay," she said
and watched in relief as her mother rounded on the old man while the
others held back there snickering.

Authors Note. Please do review, and favourite me on everything, so that
you can be alerted to the sequel, as these things seem to have become
rather lax of late. Maybe I've just been doing a poor job, or maybe its an
algorithm thing, who knows? Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this story
either way, and look forward to seeing you continue.
