Harry woke up the next morning to the sound of banging pots and pans. He groaned loudly and stuffed his head under his pillow. His door opened and heard Dobby yell out, "Master Harry! Is time for you to get up?"
He grumbled, "Alright, alright I'm getting up." Dobby popped his head in Harry's room one more time, "Master Harry, Miss Mione has told Dobby to tell you that if you don't get up she will come in here herself and wake you up."
He shot up and began racing to get dressed and as he pulled on his shirt he said, "Bloody hell Dobby. You could've just said that in the first place!"
He walked to the kitchen slowly, mulling over what's happened to him in the last twenty four hours. Then his thought drifted over to a certain Lady Slytherin. He saw her in a bikini and he will have no shame in saying he will never look at her the same way again. He had known she was a girl for a long time, but where was she hiding those curves?!
Harry shook his head, clearing it of those…. thoughts. Bad Harry! Mione equals off limits! Because if you haven't noticed she's your best friend….
A voice said slyly, A best friend that happens to a GIRL! Don't you see where this is going to be ending?
Of course not! Just because she's a girl it doesn't mean that I have to see her like that. Harry argued.
But the fact remains that you have feelings for her, but are too thick to realize it! That is why you have me to try and guide you through it. The voice finished just as Harry walked into the kitchen where everyone else was.
Hermione grinned, "I see my threat got you up pretty quickly." Harry rolled his eyes as Neville and Luna laughed at him.
Harry sat down in between Luna and Hermione. Neville's eyes widened as he took in the seating arrangements, "Um… mate? You do realize that we're surrounded by these two right?" Harry's eyes widened.
Luna and Hermione shared an evil grin and laughed at the looks on the boys faces. Just then Winky came into the room with a pop and set down the food that consisted of toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausage.
Neville and Harry dug into the food whereas Luna and Hermione ate lightly and a slower than the boys.
Luna asked, "You two do know that we have physical training right after this right?" They paused and horrified looks came up on their faces.
Hermione giggled and turned to Luna, "They will never learn will they?" Luna shrugged, "Who knows, we got eight years in this trunk. So maybe they'll learn in time."
Lady Slytherin grinned, "By year five?" Lady Ravenclaw shook her head, "No, year four."
Neville swallowed, "We're still here you know." Harry nodded, not taking his eyes off of Hermione.
Luna rolled her eyes, and replied sarcastically, "No, didn't notice at all that the Lords of Gryffindor and Huffelpuff are sitting right in between us."
Hermione stifled a snort, unsuccessfully Harry might add as he observed the two girls before him. Harry couldn't help but notice that Luna lost her dream like quality to her voice. She wasn't acting like how she did at their time in Hogwarts.
Before Harry could ask, Dobby came in and squeaked, "Lords and Ladies, it is time for your physical training."
Neville nodded and got up, the others following his lead as he led them to the Gym.
Neville stopped them once they were inside, seeing the room in a pitch black state. The doors slammed shut behind them, leaving them in the dark. Hermione became immediately on edge and listened for the slightest sound, "Alright everyone stay alert, and darkness gives others an advantage if they can see you and you can't see-"
She stopped in midsentence, the others noticed and were even more wary than before. Hermione never stopped midsentence. NEVER.
Harry called out, "Hermione…. where'd you go? Mione!" Soon, he too went silent. Neville grasped Luna's hand for comfort. He whispered to Lady Ravenclaw, "I don't like this, Luna."
She replied, "You don't have to like it Neville. This part of our training, I'm sure. If you have a disadvantage, try using it as an advantage. Just like I can sense someone creeping up on you, Now do as I say."
She let go of his hand and said, "Duck, step to your right. Jump, take a few steps backwards. Roll to your left." He did as she said, until it came to rolling to his left, he rolled to his right and got silenced as well.
Luna knew what he'd done and continued talking while dodging the attacks on her as well, "You know Professor Pendragon; it's very clever trying to get us used to different environments such as this. But never try to sneak up on someone who can't be snuck up on. Too many times, too many nargles."
A musical laugh filled the air and the lights turned on. Revealing a woman who looked she was in her thirties though still looked young. Her dark brown hair tied up in a high pony tail and her violet eyes sparkled with amusement as she looked at Lady Ravenclaw. She wore simple black running leggings and a form fitting purple long sleeved shirt along with black training boots that went up to her knee.
Pendragon smiled, "Well done Lady Ravenclaw. You are very much like your father, oh how I miss his interesting tales of creatures and knowing what he shouldn't."
Luna smiled at her description of her father. The blonde looked around for her friends and found them in the corner knocked out. She raised an eyebrow at the Professor, "Was it really necessary to knock them out?"
Andrea looked away and revived the other Lady and Lords. Harry groaned, "That was horrid."
Neville nodded in agreement and got up to stand beside Luna. Hermione got up and stuck out her hand to Harry, he gladly accepted the help and they walked over to their friends.
Andrea folded her hands behind her back and stood straight, "That was just a drill. In our time together I will be training your reflexes, state of mind and as a certain retired Auror would say Constant Vigilance. You will get used to this in few weeks' time and the first two weeks are always the hardest."
She paused before continuing, "Now that you know that. Since I know all about you, you should know me. My full name is Andrea Diana Pendragon. I am a muggleborn metamorphmagus and a direct descendant of Arthur Pendragon. King of Camelot. I have traveled the world, written five books under the name Little Dragon. When I was in Hogwarts I befriended the Marauders, Lily Evans, Frank and Alice Longbottom and Luna's father Xeno. Also in my time there I punched and hexed Snape, Malfoy Senior and Trixie. I will never trust Dumbledore or any of his hare brained schemes though he had tried on multiple occasions to get me to join him. Luna already knows this, but I'm her godmother. And don't expect me to go easy on you because of this."
Hermione looked impressed and watched her with respect. Harry and Neville grinned like mad men as they heard that she punched Snape AND Malfoy. Though both got a faraway look in their eyes as they thought of their parents.
Hermione said, "So Professor. Other than this, what are you going to be teaching us?"
Andrea replied, "I'll be teaching you healing." Neville nodded in understanding.
"Alright, now I want you to do ten laps around the gym and after do twenty five jumping jacks, ten pushups and fifteen sit ups." The metamorphmagus commanded. Luna gave her godmother a mock salute before doing her laps along with her friends.
Andrea thought back to when she visited the Lovegoods when Luna was small. She had always been a little sad that her goddaughter didn't have many friends. Only one, really. And that was Ginny Weasley. Andrea had never trusted the Weasleys. At least the two youngest and the mother hen. They were too loyal to Dumbledore and too greedy, from what she remembered of them.
After all the Lords and Ladies finished their warm up. Andrea had them stand in a straight line Harry was closest to the door with Hermione on his left. Luna stood on Hermione's other side and Neville finished off the line.
Andrea began inspecting the teens and walking around in circles around them, "Let me make myself clear. I will not be your friend in here, I will push you until you hate me with a burning passion. Outside of this gym I will help you all I can and be a close ally if you allow me to be. Maybe even a friend" As she talked her hair began to turn red, "And I will be damned if you aren't in shape by the time I'm done with you."
Hermione and Luna stood up straighter and replied at the same time, "Yes, ma'am."
Andrea nodded in approval and continued walking around until she faced them, "Now besides getting you into shape, I'll be testing your reflexes."
After another hour and a half the founders worked hard and were pushed. Once the four left the gym, Neville gasped out, "That was bloody hard!"
Hermione and the others nodded their heads weakly, Lady Slytherin called out, "Winky!"
The house elf appeared and squeaked, "Yes, Miss Mione?"
She replied, "Could you fetch us all Pepper Up potions and water bottles please?" Winky nodded and popped out of there and returned quickly with the things he asked for. They downed the pepper up potions.
Neville sighed, "This is going to be a long year."
Sorry about the lateness of this chapter, I hope I can get the next one out sooner than before. REVIEW PLEASE!
