Harry Potter and the New Age of Dinosaur
By: DJ Rodriguez
(Author's Notes: Wow! I mean… just… wow! I didn't think my second book to my Harry Potter/Jurassic Park crossover would get this much attention so quickly! The reviews and PM's relating to the story was just fantastic! I am very honored and humbled that so many have taken an interest in my story like this. I shall try to do my best to make sure this is one story really worth reading about! It has been a long time though since I even thought of my first book, so I will be going back to check and make sure my second book follows what was in the first Harry Potter/Jurassic Park story.
Now, I want to say thank you for the answers to my questions. I really like it when people get really involved in my story, and also I want them to interact with it as much as possible. Also, to answer a question put forth by ChaserJaws11, the newlywed Potters will show their power and strength on a subtle level. Like the dinosaurs themselves at Jurassic Park, they will not just mow over their adversaries and the public eye with just sheer brute force and strength. They will retain a dignity, grace, and subtle but powerful image and retain that to their abilities.
Also, a thank you to anime-death-angel for the suggestion on the type of wood that can be made into staves for the ladies and Harry. I really want the Potters to discover the many kinds of objects and magical items plus resources that are worldwide! Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley may have imported some objects and such from all over the globe, but they are very few and far in-between. So, the five very powerful magical beings are going to learn first-hand on why certain things from other continents are more versatile from brought to a country that truly appreciates and learns from their origins rather then have them downplayed in Magical England.
Again, thank you to all for your reviews and comments! I will do my best to please you all! I do not own Harry Potter or the characters, nor do I own anything related to Jurassic Park. I do own my OC creations mentioned here, and also the items that will be used by the characters.
Now, on with the fanfic!)
Chapter 1
While Harry and his newlywed wives had been enjoying their honeymoon on the Black Pearl, drastic changes has gone underway for most of the magical communities in Europe. And it was all in part due to the two magical shockwave pulses that the four witches and wizard had released some time ago. The first one was when they all managed to get out of the magic-dead zone that surrounded Isla Sorna and the other Las Cinco Muertes islands. Once they were clear of its magic-disabling boundaries, their magic surged back into them like nothing in recorded history! It sent out a powerful surge of energy that traveled a great deal around the globe, and when it hit the European continent… it changed a lot of things. When the second magical shockwave hit, due to the immense love that came from the newlyweds when they spoke their vows and sealed it with a kiss, the forces of good again gained a foothold while the corrupt and evil were delivered another powerful blow.
The structure of power had changed all because of those two incidents, which were recorded worldwide by both mundane and magical records in various fields!
In the magical world of the United Kingdom, things were looking well for the citizens who had strived to put an end to evil. Amelia Bones had been the temporary Minister of Magic for only a short time, but now she was cleaning house! Cornelius Fudge and his lackeys, including one Madam Dolores Umbridge, had been struck hard by both shockwaves. A majority of his staff had been hit hard due to taking bribes, ignoring incidents that involved the innocent getting hurt, and/or having the Dark Mark on their arms. Sadly, in the eyes of those that were put down by Fudge and Umbridge, said people did not have the Dark Mark. However, their magical cores were damaged greatly enough that it would take them weeks or months to recover enough to get back on their feet. At the moment, they were at St. Mungos recovering.
Amelia Bones had been recovering and capturing those that did bear the insignia that bound them in many ways to Voldemort. Those found in the Ministry were given the truth serum Veritaserum, questioned on how long they worked for their master and why they did so, how it was to even be branded, and anything else that could prove useful to her. The serious witch was saddened when some of her own Aurors bore the snake and skull tattoo, but she laid down the law on them hard and clear. The ones that were found in Diagon and Knockturn Alley were also delivered to justice, and were in holding cells with many others.
The temporary Minister would have sent them all to Azkaban by now, but there was another problem. Amelia had gotten reports that the Dementors on the island were all suffering badly from the magical shockwave that hit. The first one knocked them out completely, actually disabling their chilling effects AND their soul-sucking ability! Though it was temporary, the hideous guards of the infernal prison were just about back to full strength… then the love-element pulse came that almost obliterated them! The island was subjected to horrible amounts of screeching, screaming and wailing from the Dementors, prisoners and some Auror guards! Strangely though, only a few of the prisoners and Auror guards were actually bolstered by both shockwaves, indicating that they were either innocents that were falsely accused by the government, or people honestly doing their duty to guard the prisoners. It would be some time until the facility would be up and running again, and even the strength of the Dementors was now in question since they were in such a weakened state.
While Amelia was doing her best to secure and continue on with the clean-up of the community, major changes were also happening at Hogwarts.
The famous school in England was struck by the two magical shockwaves as well, and mostly it ended up benefiting from it. The ghosts that haunted or took up residency at the castle were all filled with energy that actually made them more human-like! Their pale physical features vanished, replaced by color tones and such that they used to have when they were alive! In addition, spirits that were once sleeping soundly inside the school woke up! While Hogwarts was a place of learning and of great concentrated magic, the intensity of said energy had dwindled due to many magical families dying off due to war or/and diseases. Plus, certain families inbreeding also shrank the magical potency quite a bit. Many spirits, including the ones that founded the school itself, laid dormant deep within and underneath the castle walls and floor. Now… they were awakened by a power that had not come around in an age!
Minerva McGonagall has been having her hands full ever since the school was reopened since she replaced Albus Dumbledore. Said headmaster was currently in his own chambers at Hogwarts, very much drained and tired. Many were stunned that the 'Leader of the Light' had been weakened like the other witches and wizards that had done many bad deeds. The doctors from St. Mungos that examined him stated that his magic core was like that of the other hundreds of other patients they examined, weakened and very much in need of rest so it could recover. The deputy Headmistress had been elevated to be the temporary Headmistress of Hogwarts, and had been doing her duty well. After hearing on what happened to Snape, who was still in recovery at his home due to both the shockwaves and a potion's accident, she hired a formidable Potions teacher that was on par with Snape's skills but happily did not have any bias or prejudice that the greasy-haired fool had. Her name was Cosima Donata, an Italian Potions Mistress that was certified by the International Confederation of Wizards (ICW).
The new Defense against the Dark Arts professor was also a witch, Ibbie Emiliana from Spain who was quite proficient in many ways when it came to learning and defending against the Dark Arts. However, there was one quality that made her stand out from the other professors. Her personal belief was that it was not the spells that were dangerous, but it was the person's intent, will and desire that made spells and casting quite potent. Ibbie once demonstrated on how a simple light spell such as levitation or summoning could be used in malicious ways. She was drilling into her students, young and old, that being a wizard or witch was a responsibility not to take lightly. The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor quoted a line from a famous comic book character she read, a book that came from the United States, many purebloods confused since they had never heard of comic books.
Ibbie stated, "With great power comes great responsibility. We all have this power, and I am going to drill into your heads on how NOT to take it lightly or underestimate anyone who uses this power for evil purposes.".
The students at Hogwarts were also greatly affected by the changes. Many of the older students, fourth through seventh years, had missed classes due to falling ill due to the magical shockwaves. Most of them came from Slythrin's house, while some were from Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. None came from Hufflepuff, which was a big boon for the House of Badgers. Among the fallen students were Draco Malfoy and his fellow Junior Death Eaters. The Malfoys have not been the same since Narcissa Malfoy-Black had fled from her husband, and also that her marriage was annulled by Gringotts. Their influence and wealth had taken a large blow, and it seemed the final one was when Lucius Malfoy fell to the mysterious powerful magic that hit England and he was arrested when the Aurors found the Dark Mark on his arm.
Many of the Malfoy friends and acquaintances were also hit hard, except for the Greengrasses, Davis and other who were considered Neutral or Gray as it were. The children of Death Eaters or/and Death Eater sympathizers were hit very much hard by the mysterious magic that had spread throughout the globe, their cores weakening to the point that they were either squibs or complete mundane people! Thankfully for them, their cores were regenerating back to their previous strength. But it would take much time for that to happen. Also, they no longer had a grip on the school like they had hoped for. Usually, the ones siding with evil had Professor Snape or other higher year students helping them out in bullying others and getting away with it lightly. Dumbledore's light policy on punishment also aided them in getting away with all kinds of atrocious acts!
That all ended with both Dumbledore and Snape being out of action for a good long while, their parents also cut off by either being in jail… or dead, and also with the bully's cores diminished that it made their magic spells/hexes/curses severely limited and underpowered. Minerva had a no-nonsense policy on inappropriate behavior, and anyone who used nasty words and labels were either sent to about three-weeks detention or sent home for the entire year. The muggleborns, half-bloods and also those with magical creature blood in their veins were overjoyed that the evil bullies were very much put out of commission! They would finally be able to rise up and not be afraid of those that once tried to beat them back down to the ground.
The students that had the most positive impact on the school were Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, and those that were close to Harry before he vanished from Britain some time ago.
Before Harry Potter came into their lives, they were mostly outcasts that were either shunned or ignored by the populace due to their character and quality that made them feel small and invisible. Now, they were confident and became more when he befriended them. And like some of the wizarding population, they received an enormous boost from the magical shockwaves that hit! But they stood above the rest due to the fact that the boosting power lasted longer with them then anyone else! Hermione Granger had also changed, from being a witch that blindly followed great authority figures to one who stood up for what was truly good and right. Such as treating others fairly, listening to both sides before making a call on it, and also showing that she was more than just an average 'bookworm'. Many in Gryffindor and Ravenclaw started to look up and admire her, for having both courage such as standing up to bullies, and also wisdom AND knowledge that had evaded some of the ravens for some time.
Neville Longbottom and Luna Lovegood had also made an impact on the school in a way that would be remembered by both the staff and students for a long time. Neville had gotten a new wand for himself, since his father's old wand was now incompatible with him since he received the power boost. His grandmother, Augusta Longbottom, was very disappointed that her son's wand did not fit her grandson anymore. But… she was at the same time proud to see that Neville was no longer meek or mild, thanks to Harry Potter. He received a new wand from Ollivanders, the old shopkeeper had been kept busy due to the shockwave and also many coming in to get new wands since the ones he gave them long ago were starting to burn out and/or not being compatible to them like before. Neville's new wand was cherry wood, 13 inches with a core that was a heartstring from a young griffin. Once that wand made contact with his hand… sparks erupted from the wand like fireworks on the 4th of July!
Neville's mild nature was still there, but he was now empowered and confident! Any kind of major bullying or cheating came up, he was up upon it like a lion! His actions had endeared him to many Gryffindors and Hufflepuff. It showed more when he defended his friend Luna from some of the Ravenclaws, such as Cho Chang and her associates.
Speaking of Luna, the 'Loony' girl had risen with her companions wonderfully! The young blonde beauty showed that she had a unique sense of wisdom and sight, seeing things that many did not and it was NOT due to lunacy or some other kind of mental illness that some still claimed. Luna was a true Seer, one that saw both the mundane, the magical, and one that saw beings that had kept hidden for ages due to humans and other factors. The power boost she received amplified her abilities many fold, and now she was able to see with clarity. She was able to see auras, the emotions on people, and also sensing some tid bits of wisdom and knowledge in a way that made her to be like Rowena Ravenclaw. And that particular founder of Hogwarts had been known to put that knowledge to good use, be it on the battlefield or with books. One time when Chang and her friends tried to threaten her, Luna calmly told them that their insults and cruel pranks in the past did not bother her… and if they tried to use them on her again, they best be prepared for the consequences. Cho and her Ravenclaw friends were stunned by this little display of backbone from their former target, and in retaliation launched some mild curses at her! Normally, this would be a bad situation for anyone that was facing four fifth years… but not for Luna!
The Lovegood beauty saw that their spells were underpowered and weak, no doubt from the shockwave that had drained them instead of boosting their cores. She easily evaded and blocked the attacks, showing just a bit of the fruits of her training that she undergone with Neville and Hermione while at the Order of the Phoenix headquarters. The Ravenclaw bullies were shocked to see that Luna had effectively countered or evaded their curses, but Luna gave them no time to react so they could start another assault! She stunned them with bright red beams of magic, taking out four of the bullies in just a few seconds! She left Cho Chang remaining, the Chinese beauty looking in stunned wonder at her clique that was now sprawled unconscious around her. Cho Chang was very much livid and used the Enervate spell to bring her associates back to consciousness. Luna merely waited, wanting to see what they would do next. The five witches were enraged that they had been taken down by their target, and were about to unleash some seriously nasty curses at Luna.
That is when Neville came in, using a strong Protego shield to block the curses! He came from behind Luna from the shadows, the girl having a faint but wonderful smile on her lips, as he raised his bronze-colored shield that deflected the curses back at the group! Cho and her comrades shrieked in fright and ducked down to avoid their own spells, which splashed harmlessly on the stone walls. Neville lowered the shield, and looked at the witches with a fire in his eyes that he was NOT amused to see five ganging up on one. The Ravenclaw girls were stunned by seeing the intensity and strength in Neville's eyes. They would have said or done something to the two former mouse's of Hogwarts… but a cough from behind them forced them to turn around and come face-to-face with their Head professor Filius Flitwick! The professor had seen it all, and was NOT pleased to see his students acting like common bullies and thugs in this kind of manner! He deducted points to them, and gave them two weeks detention with Hagrid in the Forbidden Forest. The professor had also apologized to Luna and Neville for not seeing this sooner, and vowed that this kind of behavior that Cho and her friends displayed would be nipped in the bud this time around. He also gave them ten points each for defending themselves rightly.
The others that followed behind Granger, Longbottom and Lovegood were surprises in itself! Among those that also followed their examples were Susan Bones, Hannah Abbot, Tracy Davis, Daphne Greengrass, and more! They used their own unique, talented natures and styles that made them rise above the pompous fools and wanna-bes that were once considered the best due to their bullying tactics. The school was now running a positive note since then, and Minerva was hoping that this would last for generations to come. She was also hoping that when Dumbledore and Snape got better, the students and staff including herself would go the extra mile to ensure that this kind of positive behavior would not diminish.
While the Headmistress was dealing with Hogwarts business, the Forbidden Forest had become a real hive of activity for the many magical denizens that resided in there. The centaurs, unicorns, acromantulas, merfolk and more had been very active when the shockwave of powerful magic hit. The unicorns horns had been glowing with a radiance that was equal to the big stars themselves in the night sky, the merfolk along with the giant squid that was living in the lake were on edge like sharks would when they smelt prey, and the large acromantulas were very skittish and spinning silk that was far stronger and durable then anything they had created in the past. The centaurs were also on edge, their star-gazing and astronomical predictions now more accurate and spot-on. The half-human, half-horse beings were stunned to see that certain stars had appeared in the night sky without warning, plus the gathering of certain stars and planets in certain alignments that neither them nor their ancestors had seen… ever. These stars belonged to the Chosen One, Harry Potter, and the planets and other stars that formed around it belonged to the ones he had bonded to.
The leader of the heard announced that this was the coming of a new age… an age of a creature that had not seen or even know about, which caused the heard to be on edge. The other thing that made them very wound up was when two new visitors arrived to the Forbidden Forest… a High Elf and an Ice Phoenix!
Dobby and Hedwig had arrived to the Forbidden Forest to see creatures in said area, and also to test their abilities. The centaurs were stunned greatly to see a High Elf, for their kind had been left the realms millennia's ago. And an Ice Phoenix was one of the rarest magical creatures of all, capable of utilizing both ice and fire techniques and abilities! The High Elf had introduced himself as Dobby, which again mesmerized the centaurs since they knew of him when he was a House Elf. Now… well, they were curious on how a mere House Elf had changed into one of the most formidable of magical races. Dobby informed the herd that he was going to be making himself a home here, using the connection of his great ancestors to construct a true High Elf home. He was also thinking of getting a new name, one that suited his new form and style. Many of the centaurs were actually glad to hear this, for High Elves used to construct homes that were both beautiful and wondrous to look at, plus ran with nature rather then manipulate and change it like humans did.
Hedwig was still learning more about her powers, and also trusted Dobby more than anyone in the woods right now. Until her true master and friend Harry Potter returned, she was going to stick with Dobby and her human companions that were in Hogwarts. She did have an adventure or two in the Forbidden Forest, such as when a large acromantula tried to eat her for lunch. Let's just say, the spider had the unfortunate privilege to find out what it was like to be burned badly while frozen inside a near-impenetrable ice block. She did have a mentor though to teach her the basics of phoenix capabilities, and that was Fawkes himself! The red flame bird of Dumbledore had left his companion to recuperate on his own, since his own song or tears were of little use. Now, he was mentoring to the beautiful white female phoenix on how to better use and control her abilities. In all honesty, Fawkes was surprised to learn that Hedwig was once an ordinary bird before being transformed. In all its thousand years of living, he had never heard of any ordinary creature turning into a very rare magical being.
While Hogwarts, the Forbidden Forest and the Ministry had been going drastic the changes, the bank of Gringotts was also in the same boat.
The bank ran by the Goblins had been undergoing drastic changes, but not of the physical kind. The wizards and witches were able to do their business there again, but the goblins were now under intense stress and anxiety… like they were waiting for something important. Someone far more important then even their own leader Ragnok! Another fact to point out was that the small but fierce magical race had been working almost non-stop for some time since the magical shockwave came in and struck the community greatly. The first line of business for them was to discover how was it that Harry James Potter, last member of the Most Ancient and Noble House of Potter, had inherited the lines that they discovered some time ago. Also to discover just how exactly he was soul-bonded to four powerful and formidable women. Sadly though, for the goblins, their usual methods of obtaining information on the lad was held under lock and key. Not by their means or by wizard methods… but by magic herself! No matter how hard they tried, using either goblin or wizard magic via the Curse Breakers, the magical seal remained. It seemed that the ONLY way for them to know anything was for Harry Potter and his wives to show up in the flesh.
The goblins did find out about the Dianne line though, and it was from their branch establishment in France. The Dianne line belonged the veela ancestry… more specifically the very FIRST veela that came into existence about 2,700 years ago! Dianne was a humble woman in Greece that loved everything beautiful and right in the world, and was surprisingly empathetic to those who showed extreme emotions. However, the goddess of love Aphrodite came to her and told her that she wanted to make a race much like her. A race of beautiful women whose love and empathetic senses could help mankind. So, she blessed the woman with the gift of beauty, sexuality of the most erotic kind, and also the ability to be an Empath that would be able to sense varying emotions and do what they could to soothe any extreme emotion accordingly. The goddess also bestowed the ability of fire and transformation to Dianne, a flame that was exactly like a true love burning inside the heart of a human. And the transformation form she chose was the symbol of her ruler Zeus, which was an avian form.
Dianne was changed into a powerful magical being, and the line spread out to various corners of the world. However, the blessing soon turned into a curse and that was all due to corrupt and perverted magicians who wanted to use the beings for their own twisted use. They placed various curses and bondages on the beautiful women, making them slaves to love instead of spreading it out like originally intended. Dianne's line was forced to flee to other lands, where they took root in France and were given the identity of veelas. The original and true powers and abilities of the veelas were sealed away by magic… until now. Now even though they had one part of the puzzle figured out, the goblins did not know how Harry had inherited the Dianne line. The only way they could truly figure this out was to have the young wizard here in their midst.
The other thing that puzzled them was the Ambrosius line. The name was linked to one of the greatest sorcerers of Britain's time and age; Merlin himself! There were various legends about the human wizard, and most of the magical creatures in the United Kingdom had tied to him. Merlin was a true sorcerer, learning by both book AND nature. He chose a staff to use instead of a mere wand, and also performed feats and abilities that surpassed any kind of wizard or witch before and during the time of King Arthur. The sorcerer also aided the various magical creatures, helping them when the purge of magic started during the dark times. Merlin helped goblins, elves, merfolk, centaurs, unicorns, friendly giants and more into creating an alternate dimension that overlapped the real dimension they were in. In short, Merlin had helped the magical community by forming the United Kingdom's very first overlapped dimensional plane!
But according to history books, Merlin never had children due to circumstances beyond his control. So… how was it that Harry was his heir? Again, the goblins had no answer for that, and would only receive it when they would have a meeting with Harry and his wives.
Also, there was the order of the new vault that had appeared and apparently bore an insignia rather then a number. What they did not know was that the insignia was the symbol that marked and made Jurassic Park on Isla Nublar! That was unusual, but what truly stunned the goblins was that this vault surpassed even Merlin's vault, and he was regarded as the #1 customer among the human wizards and witches. The vault was created by pure magic, not carved or made by goblin hands. In addition, the goblin bank tellers were still puzzled on what happened to the Four Founders, the Potters, and the Blacks vaults. They were all empty! Not on knut, galleon, or other items were in there. Ragnok assumed that all of the treasures within each vault; manuscripts, jewels, gold, priceless artifacts and more must have been moved to the new vault that lay at the extreme very bottom of the goblin territory! They could not find out for sure, since the vault would not open for them. The fierce warrior race had tried everything; curse breakers, goblin spells, physical might! Nothing would budge the simple but large door. Ragnok stated that everything would made clear if they found Harry Potter and bring him to Gringotts somehow. So, they told the various branch banks they had around Europe to keep an eye out on the young wizard and his soul-bonded witches.
The entire Wizarding world of Britain… no, Europe herself wanted to know where Harry Potter was, and what had happened to him. Many, be they evil or good, knew that the changes had occurred because of the young wizard and his witches. They wanted answers, and by the higher powers themselves, they would do what they could to get the answers! Be it by dark, gray, or light means…
When Potter and his women made landfall, it was going to be the start of a great adventure that would soon be recorded in the history books!
(Author's Notes: Whew! This was one serious chapter! I hope you all like it. This shows what has happened since Harry and his four lovely ladies left Europe, and what happened after the two magical shockwaves they created like in the first book. Please see the Survivors of Isla Sorna to know more.
