The Awakening~ By Skysong Chapter 3: Great EXPLANATIONS

Salazaar continued on seriously without skipping a beat.

"Harry, you're our heir, you have great potential and must be trained before it leaks out and wreaks havoc like a soiled nappy!"

Rowena shook her head disapprovingly at the term and continued, "In other words, without training, the effects could be disastrous, you have potential and you have to learn to make use of it…"

"You will be gone for a few years…"

"A FEW YEARS!?!?! But…?" Harry burst out.

"Don't worry, time runs differently, to the outside world, you will only be gone for a week or two, but our…magic supplier,…" Merlin paused to find a better word, "well, our "magic supplier" has arranged that you'll come back still looking 15 years old with minimal changes…now what was I saying before that?"

Slytherin sniggered audibly in the background while Godric thumped him on the head again.

"Ahh, yes, the maximum time your training would take is 5 years…hmm…anything else?"

Helga patted Harry's shoulder comfortingly, "Dearie, when you get there, find the mages…but I suppose that they would find you...never mind…no wands, they weren't invented, " she pulled Harry's wand out of his hand and placed it in a rock shelf in the cave, "doesn't matter, it'll be safe here, hmm…" she placed a hand over his eyes, chanting softly.

"W-w-what??" the hand was pulled away as the world swam past him in full speed.

"Take off your glasses!"

Pulling off his black-framed companion, Harry blinked in surprise; the world was much cleared than before, like what happens when you clean a muddy window.

"Glasses weren't invented then Harry," Rowena smiled knowingly.

"After we do this spell, we will be forced back to the spirit plane, don't worry, you'll get help!" Godric grinned with a expression that clearly said, "I know something that you don't know!"

The ancestors gathered and formed a circle around Harry, closing their eyes and linking their hands, they chanted softly to a slow rhythmic beat that thudded through the cave.

The storm came,

The Time has come,

The War is coming,

Travel 'cross eternal sands.

Portal, awaken!

(At this a bright blue light appeared and slowly and almost painfully elongated into the shape of a mirror)

Onto the era of the mages,

Through the portal and beyond,

Walk well, farewell, till we meet again!

At the last sentence, the chant had reached its loudest and the portal burst into a shower of blue sparks that enveloped Harry Potter. The ball of light flared…and disappeared without a trace…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Somewhere, in a cold damp fortress, a snake-like figure sat on his throne of black obsidian. Skulls were carved on the ornate armrests and stone snakes glared stonily (A/N: Silly me…Of course stone snakes glare stonily…) with ruby eyes and dark and liquid-like as freshly spilt blood.


Long pale fingers tapped the armrest in a loud forbidding rhythm that echoed through the silent hall.

 Lord Voldemont frowned, he was NOT happy.

A pale fist slammed into the cold obsidian, leaving a slight dent in the once perfect surface.

"Malfoy, Explain!" The hiss sent the deatheaters who unfortunately were standing within a 10-metre radius of the master collapsing from fear.

"My Lord," the normally calm Lucius Malfoy hesitated nervously, "S-S-Sharazin,…and Potter disappeared…"

"DISAPPEARED!?!?"

"S-S-Sorry, M-M-Master…" To the viewer, a stuttering Lucius Malfoy would have bought the person down to hysterics…if not for dear Voldemont.

"SORRY!! YOU IMBICILE!! YOU FOOL!! CRUCIO MAGNIFICE!!"

Lucius would have fainted in pain if not for the spell imbedded into the "crucio magnifice" to prevent the victim from dying or going unconscious. Blood flowed out from his mouth as his voice box was shredded from overuse; his mouth was open in a silent deafening scream.

"Where's Wormtail?" Voldemont lifted the spell with a wave.

The hall remained deathly silent.

"WHERE'S WORMTAIL?"

Serverus Snape gulped from the fifth row of the assembled Death Eaters. The closer you are to your "lord" the closer you stand in line. This was a chance for him to get promoted, meaning more information for the light side.

"My Lord, he was captured by Aurors…"

"Captured?!?" Snape immediately regretted his spurt of bravery.

"THAT GIT!!" The pure rage of the dark lord made two of the closer death eaters tearing at their flesh leaving bright red welts.

"WHAT ARE YOU ALL STANDING HERE FOR!?! FIND POTTER…BRING HIM TO ME…ALIVE!!!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A/N: Yeah, I know this chapter is short!! But I'm planning on a longer next time when Harry meets the mages…and I bruised my fingers in Basketball *sniffle* …it's all swollen like sausages now…Anyways!! PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!!!
