Author's Note: Third chapter to Falsebloods and Wizards enjoy.
Then before Harry read and opened the book of Fairy Tales
"That's it for the day next class we would be learning about the frontier and Wild West eras, so you best prepare for your going to have do a report on a person of you're liking from those timelines, and if all goes well, I might have a special treat in store for you all, but as of now you're dismissed have good day and be careful out there, New York has been getting some shady people lately, so keep a lookout" Edison told his class as the school bell rang and everyone left just as Sela came in the classroom just in time to see the highborn collapse in his seat.
"I admit when you told me that you worked as a history/World history teacher back in Chicago, I immediately alerted the principal, and you seem to be doing good so far" she said.
"Thanks, so what do I owe the visit?" The Highborn asked.
"It's about Harry, it won't be long till the Dark one catch wind of his presence and send Fenton and some of his dark horde members after him or worse Belinda so she could corrupt him, we need to make sure neither of those events happen" the falseblood told him.
"Sela relax you know he has Devin to watch over him plus I have some people to look after and protect him in both the Wizarding and mundane worlds, then there's the order, so Malec and his goons or Belinda won't be getting to Harry anytime soon neither would Dumbledore, for that old man got another thing coming" The timekeeper assured.
"What about his other friends or his enemies, what's to become of them? Sela replied.
"I doubt Malfoy want anything to do with Harry anymore especially after being transfigured into a ferret by Barty Crouch jr when he was posing as Professor Moody or that time when Mr. Lupus was still a student at Hogwarts and scared him off after getting stuck in his werewolf form for three days due to a potion accident, Riddle and his death munchers on the other hand, after someone dropped the bombshell about the prophecy being fake I could only theorize that old Snake face either committed suicide or is laying low while those who were loyal to him like Narcissa Malfoy and surprisingly Fenrir Greyback ended their alliance with him and are out somewhere trying to redeem themselves for they're past crimes, now I understand Mrs Malfoy's reasons, for if she hadn't married Lucius in the first place then she wouldn't have got herself removed from the Black family tree and she'll be able to make her own choices, now Fenrir on the other hand considering his history and his crimes and what he did, I think it's going to be a very long time till society forgive him of his sins, unless he had some of his memories obliviated or drinking Polyjuice Potion, as for the rest of the death eaters like Bellatrix, Lucius himself, Crabbe, Goyle etc, are rotting away in Azkaban or got sentenced to death by veil or the dementor's kiss. His friends though seeing that most of them helped and supported him throughout the Triwizard Tournament no harm should come to them but seeing that Harry doesn't trust that Ron Weasley kid anymore especially after. Mr. Potter's name came out of the goblet I think it's best if he avoided him at all cause or be taught a lesson but we could discuss this more once his 5 year at Hogwarts starts which should be soon, we also need to inform him of the war with the Dark one and about the other realms and such, just not yet, anyways let's start heading home and probably find some more Falsebloods and Highborn while we're at it" Edison told her as both adults grabbed their things from they're given classes cleaned they're desks then left.
Now After Harry read and opened the book of Fairy Tales
Harry don't know what happened one minute he was in his room reading the book of Fairy Tales Edison and Sela gave him while he was waiting for Devin to pick him up, next thing he knows he finds himself in a unknown realm surrounded by characters only found in Fairy Tales or at least they're apparitions. Like the Beast from Beauty and the Beast, Goldilocks from Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Bluebeard from the story of the same name, Little Red Riding Hood herself, the three Little Pigs, Cinderella and countless others and before he had time to react or speak his mind the apparition of Red riding hood approached the wizard and spoke in a voice that reminded him of the ghosts in hogwarts.
"You must be Harry Potter we've been expecting you" she spoke.
"Not trying to be rude or anything, but where exactly am I?" The falseblood wizard asked.
"You're in My story but it's actually Myst, though I think you have overstated you're welcome" Red continued.
"Wait I'm in Little Red Riding Hood? And what do you mean I overstated my welcome was I not supposed to be here or something and what's Myst?" Harry asked for he's been hearing the name quite a lot once from Devin and again from Edison Martin/The Timekeeper but they never told him what it was, and fortunately Bluebeard's apparition answered.
"Myst is the realm of magic, and there are four other realms that connects to it such as Neverland the realm of infinite imagination, Wonderland the realm of Dreams and Oz the Realm of Hope and Life " the apparition answered.
"Neverland, Oz and Wonderland are real I thought they were fictional?!" The wizard asked surprised.
"In another universe maybe but in this one they are very much real along with Mt Olympus and every myth, legend, Tall Tale, Fairy Tale, fable and thing in folklore you grew up hearing or reading about people just pretend they aren't real so they won't find themselves on a one way trip to an insane asylum, isn't that right Shang, Nissa and Timekeeper?" Cinderella's apparition said.
"Yes you are right Cinderella" a voice called out as three individuals approached the gathering, Harry recognized Edison but the other two were new to him the first was a man with a bald head, with a black fu Manchu minus the beard part, black eyes, a somewhat thin build and dressed in a black suit, pants, tie, and loafers plus was Chinese, he assumed this was Shang and next to him was a girl at least he think it was a girl if he could get past the insect like wings sticking out from her back and slightly revealing attire she was wearing and was practically barefooted confirming that she was a Fairy and that this might be Nissa.
"Welcome to Myst Harry, we have much to discuss so come take a walk with us" Shang told the falseblood wizard as him, Edison and Nissa started to walk with The boy following behind.
"I'm about to learn my own lesson am I?" The Falseblood wizard asked.
"No Harry, you're not, for your powers are still blocked plus you haven't done anything bad that requires one, however Red and the other apparitions weren't kidding Oz, Neverland and Wonderland are indeed real along with Mt Olympus, every myth, legend, tall tale, Fairy Tale, fable, and thing in Folklore you read and heard about, most of them like the Greek Gods and Goddess for example are in the mundane world just different names, appearances, lives and jobs, but they're memories are intact, however one goddess miss the olden days where Gods and Goddess were worshipped and wants to bring those days back despite Zeus ending that many years ago, that Goddess being Aphrodite/Venus herself" Edison explained as images formed around the group and showed the Greek Gods and Goddesses with Venus in the epicenter.
"But what does this have to do with me?" Harry asked.
"Remember when we met in Surrey Park, and Sela mentioned that there were people who would want you to use your powers for their own selfish needs?" The history/world history teacher countered.
"Yes" the boy replied.
"Well Venus is one of those people you could recognize her by her seductive voice,I had a encounter with her in Paris where she tried to seduce me, thankfully I resisted her charms and left before she could do anything else to me, so if you run into Venus or anything don't stay with her run the other way or head for a friend's house, hide or head into the book, or contact me and Sela or contact Zeus and his accomplices they know how to deal with Venus especially if Ares is with her even though he's in the Underworld" the Timekeeper told him.
"But you just told me that the Greek Gods and Goddesses all have different names, appearances, lives, and jobs so how would I know who is who and what about the Greek Heroes if they're real and living in the modern world are they aware that the Gods and Goddesses are living among them?" The boy quizzed.
"The only Greek Heroes we found so far is Hercules and Perseus, but they're memories has been erased, and both living different lives and have new names for they go by Andre Payne and another name now and they're father is only who one could bring they're memories back" Shang spoke.
"As far as names goes Zeus is going by Gregor Brontios, Apollo is going by Landon, Hephaestus is going by Clayton and odd enough in a relationship with Artemis whose going by Julie, Dionysus is going by Xavier if I'm not mistaken, Athena is going by Sage, Venus is going by Astrid Venus, Ares is going by Rhys and I think Hera is now going by Enver, Neptune went with his Greek name Poseidon, and Demeter goes by Audrey everyone else either kept their original names or has a random name or stayed on Mount Olympus" The tall man added.
"And the rest of the four realms, what could you tell me about them?" The Potter heir asked.
"Well Neverland and Wonderland isn't anything like you and others read about or seen in movies " Edison told him.
"They aren't?" Harry questioned.
"Afraid so in Wonderland the Jabberwocky has taken over and twisted the realm now it's no longer a realm of dreams it's a realm of madness and a shell of its former self, the only way to end the madness and return it to its former glory is to slay the Jabberwocky, a feat not even the bravest souls could achieved, however one person did face the creature but at a cost and while she did face off against it the being wasn't slain, in fact she did the only best thing she could do, so it wouldn't harm anyone else and most likely break the influence he had on her, for she imprisoned the Jabberwock in a mirror and shattered it so the creature wouldn't escape, but that didn't returned Wonderland to its former self or prevented the monster from influencing dreams, the brave soul on the hand, she escaped Wonderland, but lost her psyche in the process now people think she's crazy, but a part of her remains in Wonderland so none of the residents of the realm won't just harm others that enters Wonderland, but her daughter and family as well there's more to the story and slaying the Jabberwocky isn't the only thing that needs to be done to return Wonderland to its original state, something else needs to happen but we could discuss that another time" the apparition of the Beast explained as him and some of the other apparitions from earlier appeared and joined with Harry and the two highborns alongside the Fairy.
Harry nodded then asked.
"Who was this person and where is she now?" The falseblood wizard asked.
"You know her as Alice Liddell and she's currently living in Cleveland with her daughter Callie, son Johnny and husband Lewis" the highborn high council member responded.
"I'll introduce you to the Liddells sometime they're an uh great family when the ghosts of Alice's time in Wonderland aren't bothering them but if I'm busy then Devin or someone else could introduce you to them same applies to Mr. Brontios and the rest of the gods and Goddesses will except Rhys and Astrid or Hera" the timekeeper said.
"I would like that" Harry replied.
"Okay I'll get in touch with one them and see when is the best time to visit, but if it's on a day where you're at Hogwarts then there's going to be a change of plans" the highborn told him.
"I understand, what other realms got it bad?" The falseblood wizard asked.
"Neverland has it worse" Bluebeard's apparition stated.
"Much worse" Nissa spoke.
"I was afraid of that, what's going on in Neverland?" The boy asked.
"It's ruled by Peter Pan or Pan or Jacob Wiles whatever you prefer, and before you say anything Pan is not the hero you read about, he's the villain for he's evil corrupt and as long as he's on Neverland he's powerful and sucks the youth out of people especially during visits to Nexus so he could be young himself and turning them into his zombie Lost Boys, he's also responsible for wiping out all the fairies in Neverland except myself, Tinkerbelle, and two others" Nissa explained.
"Then who's the hero and what happened to the original ruler of Neverland?" The falseblood wizard asked.
"The original ruler was named Barr before Pan took his place but even if Barr does reclaim his throne Neverland won't be getting better" Goldilocks apparition spoke.
"The hero on the other hand that would be Hook also known as Nathan Cross, but he can't remember his last visit to Neverland" the fairy added.
"There's plenty of places we could tell you about like Kipling Isle, inferno, The Shadowlands and so on, but we don't have time for it's almost up and speaking of Mr. Cross, there's something you need to know" Mr. Martin said facing Harry.
"What is it?" The boy asked wondering what the highborn was going to tell him.
"When you return to Hogwarts I have some people who would protect and look after you and your friends except especially when you're in the mundane world" the said highborn answered.
"And before you go off on him or anything hear us out, Devin told all of us what you encountered and fought during your previous years and he sounded really angry when speaking" Red told him.
"Like the troll, and the whole third floor corridor business along with what happened during your very first Quinnditch match plus the Cerberus what happened in the Forbidden Forest in 1st year" the Fairy stated.
"The Basilisk, Acromantula and Womping Willow in 2nd year" Cinderella added.
"The Dementors in 3rd, but he left out Remus and Sirius for he knew that Mr. Lupin didn't take his wolfsbane potion and wasn't in control at that time, while Sirius had his reasons to see you" Edison commented.
"Lastly your entire 4th year with the Triwizard Tournament, with the dragon during the first task, the merpeople of Black Lake during the second task, the whole third plus final task where you navigated that deathtrap of a hedge maze that even the Queen of Hearts or the Dark one would want it and a course the bits with Alastor being Barty Crouch Jr under Polyjuice potion, the Quindditch World Cup before 4th year began then a course the death of your um friend after all that Devin angrily confronted Dumbledore" the apparition of Bluebeard stated.
"In fact he was so angry with the old man that he lost control of his werewolf transformation and changed into his werewolf form but he regained some control before it could continue leaving him in I assumed would be a partial or half werewolf form he also gave him a bonechilling warning while in that state and I quote, "If anything happens to Harry next year or during his later years at Hogwarts, I'll fucking slaughter you then remove him from Hogwarts and not only that I'll tell everyone including Newt and Minerva even freakin Rita Skeeter that you the great Albus Wulfric Percival Dumbledore was responsible for the deaths of the Pevelle brothers, the Evans bloodline, the Potters bloodline, and numerous others during the first Wizarding War because he couldn't make it in time all because they had to die for the his so called Greater good, he's also responsible for the death of his sister, plus was a lover of Gellert Grindelwald AND HAS BEEN MANIPULATING PEOPLE Throughout the years, like a certain enemy of mine! I'll bet even Merlin and Hecate would frown upon you oh and another thing if you tell anyone about our little conversation this day and I mean anyone be them lowborns, witches, wizards etc I'll give you a fate much worse than death" end quote he really lives up to his nickname Agent Big Bad Wolf" the Beast's apparition stated.
Harry shivered after hearing the warning his werewolf friend left the so called headmaster and made a mental note to make sure that him or his friends along with everyone he trusts don't get on Devin's bad side then continued to listen.
"After that we all had to act so we contacted every falseblood, person and highborn we trust and sent them to parts of the mundane and wizarding world to protect and look after you, and Mr. Cross is one them" Shang spoke.
"And I believe we did it right on time, because things at Hogwarts are about to change," the timekeeper said while looking at his watch.
"Change how?" Harry asked.
"Our spy in the Ministry of Magic just notified me that the minister of magic is sending Umbridge to Hogwarts during your 5th year as your DADA teacher and no good could come from that" the tall man answered.
"Just what I bloody needed the ministry teaching me" the falseblood wizard said.
"I don't think she's going to be teaching you damn thing for Edison warned you that she can't be trusted" Cinderella told him.
"What do you suggest I do?" The boy asked.
"My advice either drop DADA and pick a different subject for 5th Year and avoid Umbridge at all causes or leave for we wouldn't mind if Devin removes you from Hogwarts after everything you been through at least you'll be free from Dumbledore's manipulations" Edison responded.
"But it's mandatory for fifth years to take DADA!" Harry said.
"You're starting to sound like you're friend Hermione" Mr. Martin chuckled before adding.
"And while it true that's it's mandatory to take DADA in 5th year, but think after all the shit you been through with Lockhart, Quirrell, and Crouch Jr. Do you really want to take the risk of taking DADA again?" He quizzed.
The Gryffindor was silent for didn't know how to respond to that.
"Think about it for a couple of days then we'll talk, but as of now it's time to go" Edison told him before snapping his fingers and sent Harry back to Nexus with the apparitions and the others waving goodbye.
Santa Monica California Devin's mansion
Harry soon found himself in an unfamiliar room with the book of Fairy Tales by his side, Hedwig in her cage asleep, plus he wasn't alone for he saw a thirty year old man studying with a book titled tall tales, myths, legends and folklore sensing the boy's presence the man decided to speak.
"Well look who's back from the realm of magic, Harry right? Devin told me about you, I'm Ross Williams, and I'm like you" the man said and introduced.
"Like me sir?" The son of James and Lily Potter questioned.
"Yeah you know a falseblood, though unlike you my powers aren't blocked, and they're different from yours" the folklorist told him.
"Oh, by the way Mr. Williams, what exactly were you're doing a few minutes ago?" Harry asked.
"Noticed that huh? Well if you must know, it's one of my various hobbies, I study Tall Tales, myths, legends and folklore you see and have been doing so for years straight, plus I'm some kind of folklorist" the falseblood said.
"When did you start studying those things and why? The boy asked.
"I started studying them when I was 2 years old, why I studied them it's kind of a habit for I'm just drawn to them, but enough about me, grab your book and I'll take you to Devin he's waiting for you along with some friends of yours" the older falseblood told Harry before walking off.
Harry grabbed his Book of Fairy Tales and followed the 30 year old man to the Highborn werewolf's location. Meanwhile Devin was in a room lined with trophies, medals, awards, certificates and artifacts from the realms past confirming to be either a trophy room or an artifact room, also he wasn't alone for Hermione Granger, Luna Lovegood, Dean Thomas, Neville Longbottom, Susan Bones, the Weasley twins and Anthony Goldstein.
"Thanks for having us over Mr. Lupus" Hermione thanked the MI6 agent.
"It's the least I could do Ms Granger, especially after you and everyone else here along with some others helped and supported Harry in his time of need during the Triwizard Tournament instead of up and betraying him" the highborn werewolf said and seem to have ditched his MI6 uniform and was in more casual attire which composed of jeans, trainers and a blue muscle shirt.
"Where is Harry anyway is here?" Susan asked.
"Ask and you shall receive" Luna replied as Harry came in with Ross.
"Harry!" the muggleborn witch exclaimed as she went to embrace her friend.
"Good see you Mione, Luna and the rest as well but how did you guys get here, where are we anyway?" The falseblood Wizard asked.
"I invited them pup, as for where we are, this is Santa Monica California, in my mansion cause as I told you over the phone, I was taking you to one of my places across Nexus" Devin answered.
"How did you managed to get by the Dursleys?" The boy asked.
"It wasn't easy, but with some help from Ross and another we were able to deal with them" the Ravenclaw graduate replied.
"Agent Lupus was right to call us because after we left London for here dementors showed up sent by umbridge no doubt, thankfully you were gone at that time, for my aunt assumed they were after you" the hufflepuff commented.
"Did she also mentioned that Umbridge would be teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts during our 5th year Sue?" The falseblood wizard asked for he knew that Susan's aunt was Amelia Bones.
"As a matter of fact yes she did but someone else told her" Susan replied.
"We can talk more about this another time for we got more important matters to attend to" Mr. Williams spoke.
"Ross is right, come on we're going out" the highborn werewolf said.
"Where are we going?" Dean asked.
"To meet with a acquaintance of mines and then we're off to Gringotts for Harry" the man stated.
"Who is it?" Neville questioned.
"You'll see Mr. Longbottom" the Realm knight told them.
"What about your job with MI6?" Susan asked.
"I have someone covering for I'm not just an MI6 agent Ms. Bones" the highborn responded.
"He's right you know?" The blond haired girl said in her airy voice.
"I'll explain more as we make our way to the meeting area, so let's get going" Lupus told them as they arrived at the garage where an expensive sports car was parked.
"Wicked your family must be bloody rich, to own this" Fred spoke.
"You have no idea for I got plenty others" The MI6 agent said as they walked to the sports car.
"Well the car be able to hold all us?" Hermione asked.
"There's an extra row of seats in it, so a course it is, so hop in" the man said as he unlocked the car door.
With that said the kids hopped into the car with Ross taking the passenger seat while the rest took backseats or the extra row seats and buckled up.
"Let's get going" the Realm knight commented.
Next time Sela and Edison found their first falseblood a girl named Britney Waters who seems to have a connection with wolves but first there's a lesson in the form of the story Little Red Riding Hood that she has to learn but it's not the story you remember from childhood this version is darker and has a twist, so see you next time in Little Red Riding Hood II.
