Holiday (Book 2 and a half of the Cetra Heritage Saga)

by Quatermass

All he wanted was a nice holiday with friends. Unfortunately, with Deepground recently uncovered and the mysterious Gilgamesh issuing challenges to battles, Harry Gainsborough is going to have an eventful holiday, whether he likes it or not...

1. Foreword

FOREWORD

Welcome to the next interquel of the Cetra Heritage Saga. It will be a longer one than Birthday, the interquel set between Harry Potter and the Cetra Heritage and Harry Gainsborough and the Philosopher's Stone, and it will probably have longer intervals between posted chapters, for which I have only myself to blame: I have so many active fanfics and people clamouring for updates to those, it ain't funny.

Unlike Birthday, which was more of a little side-story set during Harry's eleventh birthday, this story will be somewhat more substantial, featuring many of Harry's friends, as well as Harry having a substantial twelfth birthday party at the Golden Saucer…with a duel with Rosso as well as Gilgamesh to deal with.

I'll also answer the latest reviews for the previous three fanfics at the end of the first chapter.

Anyway, now for the disclaimers. Firstly, there will be little to no bashing of the Harry Potter characters. Yes, their faults will be scrutinised, but this will be more reconstruction than deconstruction.

Secondly, there will be annotations up the wazoo. You have been warned.

Finally, the following is a fan-based work. Final Fantasy VII and Harry Potter are the properties of their respective owners. Please support the official release. Otherwise, well, Gilgamesh?

THAT'S RIGHT! IT IS I, THE GREAT GILGAMESH! SUPPORT THE OFFICIAL RELEASE, YOU DULLARD FANBOYS AND FANGIRLS, OR I WILL COME TO YOUR HOUSE AND SHOUT AT YOU UNTIL YOU DO SO!
