AN: Hi! This is my new story, which I will work on from time to time 'til I finish my others, at which time it will become a priority. I really hope you like it. I personally love the idea of Harry being friends with a certain archangel.
I do not own either Harry Potter, or Supernatural, which makes me very sad.
Giada Draven, out!
It was in his cupboard that Harry heard the voice. It was kind, warm, and he couldn't tell the gender of its owner. It was telling him stories of what the world used to be like when the voice was young. Harry, of course hid in the library from his cousin so that he would have a chance to check if the voice's stories were true. They were, and because of that Harry trusted the voice. Eventually, he convinced it to tell him its name, which was Lucifer. He became his confidant, him telling about all of the important and not so much events that happened.
After he started Hogwarts, they kept talking just as much. When the school turned their backs on him, Lucifer would rage in his head, then help him through the loneliness. It was during potions in fifth year that he asked him to go to the Chamber of Secrets immediately, because he had finally gotten a way to take him away from all of the betraying people. Harry argued, saying that his friends would believe him eventually. But, Lucifer told him that he was too trusting. After a long argument, Lucifer asked if Harry trusted them. He of course answered in the positive, and let Lucifer lead his body out of class and to the second floor bathroom.
"Potter, what do you think you're doing? I think this calls for a detention, and 10 points from Gryffindor for interrupting class." Snape said, taking the chance to antagonize his least favorite student. Harry didn't reply, of course, so Snape started to follow him. "Perhaps 20 points would be more appropriate? Sit down, Potter." Still, he kept walking, out of the door now. Snape harrumphed, and sped up so that he could follow. "Class, let's follow Potter, since he obviously has something important to show us."
It was near the beginning of the lesson, so no one had begun making their potions yet. They all stood, the Slytherins snickering and the Gryffindors confused. It wasn't hard to catch up, since Harry seemed to be taking his sweet time. In actuality, he was questioning Lucifer on how he was going to take him away, and why they must go to the chamber.
Once they reached the girls' bathroom on the second floor, Ron tensed up, then darted forward so that he could grab Harry. Snape stopped him, getting ready to scold, but didn't when he saw how distressed his student was. "Harry, mate, why are you going back there? Wasn't it bad enough the first time? Now think about it, with that bloody basilisk rotting down there." He tried to snap Harry out of it, but he just kept walking. Everyone else was confused, because no one knew what had happened at the end of their second year.
Walking in, Myrtle was nowhere to be seen. He went to the sink, where small snakes were engraved around the mirror. Almost absentmindedly, he hissed, "Open." The sink slid into the ground, revealing the long slide to the bottom. Thinking for a moment. He once again hissed out a command. "Stairs." A large spiral staircase came out of the walls of the pipe, forming a path down without jumping.
Ron made a small noise in the back of his throat, recognizing this to be the way Ginny had to have gotten out of the chamber when she was possessed. Harry started down, and they followed behind cautiously. After about 5 minutes, they reached the bottom, where the evidence of a cave-in remaind. Ron stayed at the front of the group, knowing what was to come would be new to him. Crawling through the hole in the cave in was hard, because not everyone could fit, but Snape used spells to get them through.
Once at the next door, Harry hissed, "Open," a final time. The stone snakes that kept the door locked moved one at a time, giving enough time for the entire class to catch up. Harry walked through and made it to the middle of the room before he stopped. Lucifer had told him that in a few moments he would be there, so that he could finally escape the judging stares. Looking behind him, he found that his entire potions class had followed him, including Snape.
His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of wings, which Lucifer had told him signalled the arrival of an angel. Turning around once more, he found that this one was wearing a middle-aged vessel. He was wearing a plain shirt, with a green jacket on top. The blue jeans and combat boots completed the look.
Harry cautiously stepped forward. "Lucifer? Is that you? How did you get out of the cage?" With his first word, several of the religious muggleborns stepped back and all of them gasped. The purebloods and some half bloods didn't know what was going on, because they worshiped the gods of magic. The angel in the room nodded, and Harry launched himself towards the person he considered his older brother. He swung him around and somehow managed to get the wizard on his shoulders. "How did you get out of the cage, Luci? And when did you get a vessel?" He leaned down carefully to look at his friend without falling.
Lucifer just scratched the back of his neck. "Well, the reason I found you in the first place was because daddy dearest wanted me to find a human and stay with them, so that I could see that not all humans are bad. It actually showed me how awful most are, but I learned that the nice ones need to be protected. Because of this, I went to dad and asked for a way to take you away from all of this." He gestured around him, pointing especially to the corpse of the basilisk. He then tugged up Harry's sleeve, showing the scar from when said basilisk had bit him. "He gave me this vessel, which wouldn't burn out and didn't have a soul inside of it. That way, I wasn't taking someone away from their home and family." He smiled and swung around in a little dance, causing Harry to laugh and cry out at the same time.
"Luci! Stop for a second!" He yelled out, still being swung about. He stopped and let Harry get down so that he could talk. "I have an idea. What if you stayed here with me until the end of the year, and then we leave. That way I can know which of my friends won't judge, and keep in contact with them. Plus, we can pull some pranks on a certain toad!" He got excited at the idea, bouncing in place. Luci nodded, and put him back on his shoulders.
He turned to the intruders and said, "I think it would be advantageous to have you all know. Rumors will spread, stories will change. I'll be the mysterious guy who just showed up and hangs out with Harry. Got it?" The class nodded, knowing that if they argued bad things would happen. He smiled and led the way back to class, where there was about 20 minutes left to the double potions class. Ready to dismiss and find himself a drink, Snape told them to clean up and to leave once they did.
Happy, Harry skipped over to Hermione and Ron while dragging Lucifer with him, so that he may introduce them to each other. His smile dropped, however, when he found that Ron wouldn't look at him and Hermione was quickly muttering an exorcism, which she had likely learned in one of the books in the Black library. "Ron, Hermione, what's wrong? You know there's nothing wrong," he said, hoping that it was just a mistake.
That hope was crushed when Hermione squeaked and said something that vaguely sounded like an accusation of being a demon. When he looked at Ron, his friend was looking very confused. "Why did you go down into the chamber? I don't know everything that happened down there, but I know that my baby sister was about to die. So, why would you go to the bloody chamber?" He was very worked up, the trip down making many unpleasant memories resurface.
Harry ducked his head, feeling sorry even if he couldn't help it. "We didn't want everyone to be following us, seeing Lucifer show up and our little reunion. That would spell bad news, considering how badly some people took it on such a large scale. Look at Hermione, thinking I was a demon." He was getting emotional, and he knew if he didn't stop ahead of time he would explode. He calmed down when Lucifer placed his hand on his shoulder, feeling soothing waves being sent to his mind. They had kept their small mental connection, to know if the other was getting dangerous or was in danger. Plus, if they got separated they would have a way to talk.
Ron calmed down as well, seeing the logic in that. It was never a good idea to give away your strongest piece in wizards chess. Lucifer nodded to him, showing he thought Ron had handled that wisely. So, in a group of three they went to lunch, already starting rumors among the student population.
