Chapter Two
Hermione fretted over Harry's prone form. It has been a week since Draco had tried to poison her, but had gotten Harry instead, ending in Draco's permanent expulsion from the school. Of course his father, Lucius Malfoy, threw a fit, but with Draco deliberately trying to poison and kill a fellow student, he was immediately thrown out of the school.
Hermione visited Harry every night before she slept. That was the only time that she could since she was not allowed to miss her classes. Something kept calling her back to him and that something would not let her be. That night, the night of the full moon, she felt something was wrong. When she went to visit Harry she got a great shock. His bed was empty and in his place was a note and that note was sitting in a pool of blood.
She announced Harry's disappearance with a scream and then fainted. Hermione's scream alerted Madame Promfrey who immediately called Professor Dumbledore. Dumbledore came in a puff of smoke as soon as he was called. All stared at the note as if it would go off like a well-timed bomb, but only Dumbledore himself noticed that it was addressed to him.
To Albus Dumbledore,
We decided that enough was enough. We've waited for the boy to come for years. Whatever it was that happened, he has been sent here. Tell the girl that he is alright and that he says he will miss her. He is to train with us, as promised Albus Dumbledore. You will not see him for a while.
Yours truly,
The Council of Great Powers
Dumbledore looked up from the note.
"He lives."
He heard Hermione sob out of relief.
"What is going on Albus?" Madame Promfrey asked Dumbledore, "I cannot have students disappearing from my infirmary without an explanation!"
"Where did Harry go Professor Dumbledore?" Hermione asked the Headmaster frantically, "When will he be coming back?"
"I cannot offer either you much of an explanation. All I can say is that young Harry is about to embark on a journey that would forever change him and the world as we know it."

Harry Potter stared at the magnificent creatures before him. A large, black, female, dragon stared down at him with calculating eyes. A white wolf growled at him from the right while a griffin and a lion stared at him from the back. An eagle sat at the Dragon's massive feet. Harry felt as if he was under judgement for a crime that he had committed, but did not remember ever doing.
{Come here on your own, small one?} The dragon asked him gently.
"No-no ma'am," he replied, "I was sent here."
(Then you must be the boy we were told would come. You are late.) the Griffin stated angrily.
"Late?"
: Yes, late. Why is the girl not with you? : the eagle asked him calmly.
"Girl?"
The dragon sighed exasperatedly, breathing hot air on Harry.
- Didn't he tell you anything?! - the lion roared at him.
"Who tell me what?"
* Albus Dumbledore. He was supposed to tell you of your destiny before you were sent here. What is the last thing you remember before coming here? * The wolf asked him, as gently as the dragon had.
"I was in the Great Hall. I noticed something weird about Hermione's drink. I heard Draco snickering and knew he'd done something to it. Risking humiliation or death, I switched my goblet with hers and drunk her pumpkin juice. It burned like acid down my throat and tasted like what rotten eggs would. I blacked out for a while and then I came here."
{The one you call Draco poisoned you with something your kind call Dragon's Breath Poison. He had intentions of killing the girl.}
"Draco!" Harry growled angrily.
(Good!) the Griffin told him encouragingly, (Hold that anger! Use it to help you train!)
"Train?"
: It seems that we have much to teach you. Let's get started. :
Harry nodded to the Eagle.
"What do I call you?"

Months passed slowly for both Harry and Hermione. Dumbledore was slowly growing more and more concerned for both. That night, the night of Christmas Eve, he looked up at the stars and sighed.
"Fight well, live long, find love, survive. My advice to you Harry."
Dumbledore wasn't the only one looking up at the stars, Harry's Godfather, Sirius Black, who had been informed about Harry by Dumbledore, was also looking at the stars.
"Good luck, my Godson. I wish I could be there to help."
There was a third person looking at the stars, but this was a sorrowful young woman known to all as Hermione Granger. As the clock chimed midnight, she lifted her head from her knees and looked up at the sky.
"Happy Christmas Harry, wherever you are. I love you."
