-the Patronus is not just any other spell. You don't just summon the happiness inside your head. You're soul-bound to what you summon. Creatures, bound to your soul. Fight for you. Stay beside you. A companion for the big and small.
Harry was a twelve year old boy, a student of Hogwarts. It was his second year, and he had just finished his class.
The words he had learned kept echoing in his head. 'Creatures, bound to your soul.' Boy, he couldn't wait to learn how to use it.
Wanting to learn more about the spell, he headed to the library, to study the wonders of the Patronus.
"L. M. N," said Harry as he searched through the shelves for the book he seeked.
"Found it!" He took the book from the shelf and looked at the cover. 'Patronus, Spirits of Happiness'. As Harry was about to open his find, he heard a voice.
"Researching once again, are ya'?" It was Ron, Harry's best mate.
"Yea, but this is better than the usual," said Harry casually.
"Well, I wanna see it then," said Ron, wanting to know everything, as usual. Harry passed the book over to Ron, hoping he would actually find it interesting.
"Harry," said Ron in disappointment, "It's just studies about whatever the damn we were learnin' about in class."
"But it's not just some learning!" Harry replied to Ron.
"Well, you can have fun doing your nerdy stuff. Kay?" said Ron. And with that, he walked out of the room.
Now, it was dark. Harry was in his dorm, reading his book under the light of his lamp.
"Hedwig, do you think I'm a nerd? I mean, I'm just trying to do some research," said Harry to his snow-white owl. Hedwig gave a couple tweets, which in his language meant, 'Yea you're a nerd alright. So hooked up in your studies you forgot to feed me! Grr, one day I'll show you. You will regret everything you have done to Hedwig, Potter!'
"Looks like it's feeding time!" said Harry in a cheerful tone. Hedwig gave another tweet. 'Well, I guess I could make an exception.' And with that, he dug into the little seed pellets laid out for him. Harry turned back to his book. He read from where he left off:
Casting Patronus
To cast Patronus and summon the creature soul-bound to you, you must follow these few steps.
Step 1, Fill your mind with some of the happiness moments of your days. Clear your mind of your darkest times and losses.
Step 2, Hold out your wand in front of you. Now focus the energy of happiness in your mind and keep a firm grip on your wand.
Step 3, Give your wand a little wave and yell 'Expecto Patronum! Your happy thoughts will flow from your wand in a cloud of blue dust and out will pop your soul creature
'Seems simple enough' Harry thought to himself. He decided that it had been enough for that day, so he rolled onto his bed, and tried to go to sleep.
While he tossed and turned in his bed, he thought to himself, 'What is the true power that comes with this Patronus?' Soon after that, he fell asleep.
Now, Harry wasn't the only one that had become fascinated with the Patronus. There was someone else that had found out about this spell. Voldemort, the 'Dark Lord' had heard of these soul-bound creatures, and had made it his duty to summon one of these creatures, and use them to fulfill his evil deeds. He just needed to find out how to cast the spell.
Voldemort started laughing uncontrollably, just thinking about what he could do with the power. But what is he planning to do?
