Hunter Potter and the Elimination Chamber of secrets.
Chapter 1 It came from the closet.
It's been a year since Hunter had been to Ringwarts, summer was long and for once he wanted to go back to school. His cousin was more annoying than ever. However Hunter finally got his own room since he returned. The down side was his uncle knew very well he couldn't use magic. Hunter used it one already and was swiftly sent a note never to do it again of face expulsion from Ringwarts. Hunter didn't want that. He was bummed out since Uncle Hayman kept him in the room most of the time, as well. The only thing he was greatful for this summer was the fact he didn't live under the damn stairs anymore. But the room he got smelt really bad, and was beside Kurtley who pounded the wall frequently. Uncle Hayman wasn't thrilled with the fact Hunter now has a pet Dragon in the house. Hunter was forced to lock Helmsley into a cage. Helmsley didn't like that at all, he would scratch at the cage, chewing and call out to be released. Of course Hunter let him out a few times. Once in Kurtley's room, and twice in Uncle Hayman and Aunt Molly's room! He figured if he was going to be locked in his room for most of the time, might as well have a reason for it. But that wasn't the thing bothering him. All summer he wrote to Stephoine and Chris, with no reply from either of them. He thought they forgot about him that was till a few weeks before school. He noticed his dragon Helmsley was growling at the closet door for a strange reason. It almost sounded like a bark when Helmsley tries to scare something. Hunter looked to see what his dragon was doing after reading one of his books.
"Hey. What are you growling at?" Hunter asked. Hunter opened the closet door and to his shock was a small creature fell out! Hunter instantly thought it was a little person "Oh sure I get the closet with a midget!" he sighed.
"HEY! I ain't no midget, I'm a elf. Besides it's little person dumbass!" the thing shot back. The elf brushed off his clothing and straightened his jacket while putting on sunglasses. He had dark skin, and was clearly bald. "The names is Coach!" he explained.
"Uh… yeah… what the hell are you doing in my closet?" Hunter demanded.
Coach stood up and brushed off his pants. "Well I am a house elf. I live in people's houses till I earn my own keep and then I leave. Lucky for you, I'm not yours. I belong to the classy kind of families. Mine are the Malcoys. But I needed a break from all the fancy stuff and decided to rough it out…" Couch paused as he noticed Hunter's dragon staring intensely at him. "Uh… is he friendly?"
Hunter looked down at Helmsley. "Oh yeah, he's just hungry" Hunter replied. Coach gulped his pride slightly, since in dragon terms. He is a mouthful. Hunter then noticed all the letters in the closet! He shoved Couch off to the side seeing at least 20 letters from Stephoine and Chris.
"You went in my mail!" Hunter roared. Hunter spent some time ripping open letters from his friends; many wondered why he didn't write back. Coach ate all the treats Chris had sent. Hunter turned and glared at Coach. However Coach wasn't here he stood but his sunglasses were covered in dragon drool. Looking at his dragon. Helmsley was asleep on a full stomach. "Meh, keep him Helmsley. He was annoying me anyway" Hunter replied. He wanted to leave. But he couldn't. The door was locked and he can't use magic. Hunter sighed as he suddenly heard a loud honk. He went to the window and saw Chris and his brothers Adam and Jason!
"Dude! What took you so long to reply?" Chris called out. Hunter smiled.
"Well let's see. I am locked in my damn room and my dragon is so hungry he ate a house elf!" Hunter shot back. Adam and Jason laughed; they left but came back with this HUGE hummer!
"Stand back!" called Jason and Adam; they tied up a piece of rope to the window. Jason hopped into the car and reversed. Pulling out the window!
"Damn! You know my uncle is gonna freak?" Hunter smirked.
"Relax, you're staying with us till school starts! Come on!" Chris called. Hunter didn't refuse the offer. He collected all of his things and carried out Helmsley over one shoulder. Jason drove them to the family house. It wasn't that big. But it was better where he was before. Chris' mother waited outside, she smiled and welcomed Hunter in.
"My you grew since I last saw you!" she laughed. He took Helmsley from Hunter and gave him a good meal. Helmsley wasn't too hungry after eating the house elf. However he wasn't rude to Mrs. Jericsley either. She was a good cook! When his meal was done. Chris' mother asked him to go do some weeding. Hunter figured he should help; after all they were taking him in. They went out to the yard, when Hunter noticed there were no weeds.
"Dude… what the hell are we weeding?" Hunter asked. He saw these little gremlins come out of hiding and started to run about all over the place.
"Those" Chris replied. Hunter smirked as Chris spent a good 15 minutes chasing these things. He watched Chris try and hit them with a folded chair, or jump them. With no success, he ended up eating dirt from jumping off the table and porch. Hunter went inside and got Helmsley who was full of energy and needed a run about. So Hunter took him outside, he watched Chris fall to the ground out of tiredness. Hunter looked over him and smirked.
"Watch and learn" he explained. He released Helmsley and in no time those gremlins when running! Chris smiled and looked to Hunter.
"I'm going to have to borrow him every week!" he laughed. Helmsley had used all his energy just frolicking and stretching that he fell asleep! "Hey Hunter… why didn't you reply to my letters?" Chris asked.
"Being locked in a room is one thing. Having an elf steal your mail is another"
"Kurtley again?" Chris smirked.
Hunter shook his head. "Naw, house elf. Helmsley ate it" Hunter smirked.
Days later
Hunter was told that they had to pick up school supplies for Chris' younger sister Trish. She was starting Ringwarts and needed to get clothing and other supplies. Hunter didn't know how they were going to get there. However Mr. Jericsley explained how. They all stood before the fireplace and Mr. Jericsley walked up to it. With no effort he expanded the fireplace. "It's really simple Hunter. We use transporting salt. Close your eyes and make sure any open wounds are covered before using it. If not it stings like hell!" he explained. Hunter gulped and nodded as he went first. He stepped into the fireplace when the salt was casted on him. He began to think of the place Showgrid took him last year. When he opened his eyes… he wasn't where he wanted to be. Looking around he noticed they did sell magic items, however it was black magic. He saw Rando Malcoy walk the streets with his father in which he was the spitting image of!
"Freaky" Hunter whispered. He followed them quietly. Hunter was rather curious as to what they were up to, for by the looks of it, they weren't trying to bring attention to them selves, and there hiding something from everyone's eyes.
