Chapter Three

After Harry had left. Amy went directly into the library. She had always wondered how her uncle had died. Her dad always refused to tell her the story of Sirius death. When Harry mentioned the veil. Her mind raced. The viles in her head began to turn to form a plan.

She had read about the veil in one of her fathers more obscure books which were given to her by her dad with a warning not to misuse them but to expand her knowledge. She indeed was a very lucky girl. The library her father owned had a vast variety of books and as she was secluded from the wizarding world. She loved to read about all the possibilities magic gave a wizard or a witch.

She was reading the titels on the back of the books in a haste. She was sure it had to be standing in one of these shelves. She just had to manage to find it and then she would see if her idea would work. It had to work if there was a thing Amy despised then it was being unable to reach her goal. She was like a true Slytherin very ambitious.

Then she stopped there was the title she had been searching blue leather bound 'Transpassing- threshold between in reach and out of reach goals' She took the ancient book carefully out of the shelve and read through the index.

Breaking someone´s will by breaking their magic

Opening of the mind by erasing inhibition

Trapped in between worlds

Portal to communicate and revive the lost

'Yes' Amy thought as she read the two last titles. There were exactly what she had been looking for. This two chapters were the reason why the information that Sirius had fallen through the veil had made her happy and excited. She hoped her theorie would be affirmed. She opened the book on the page 136 where the chapter Trapped in between worlds began anxiously.

She read silently until Athena her grey Russian Blue came into the library and began to nuzzle her legs. Amy said absentmindedly down and caressed the nape of Athenas neck after Athena had jumped onto her lap.

Some time later Amy read the passage she had been scanning for out loud.

"Various theories were made over the remain of a wizard or witch after they enter into a state of magical coma and the difference between this state and the occurrence of their final demise. The most plausible and through historic account verified theorie is which assume that there are three plains of existence. They are divided into the living plain, the afterlife plain and the equirium plain which is a plain in between the two other. This plain is nether here nor there. A plain in which a witch or wizard are in limbo, waiting.

It is said that the person mind is trapped there when said is in a state of magical coma. In this state the magic of the person is able to free the person after the ailment which induced the coma is alleviated. But if the equirium plain is entered wholly mind and body the magic of the person is bound and cannot return the person to the living plain without help. The person is trapped there until every tie the person has to the living plain is broken or the life force the person has is exhausted. If one of this happens the person move on to the after life plain.

This knowledge was missused in the 17th century. The ministry banned dangerous Dark wizard and witches there just like said banned good wizard and witches. It was a common threat and mostly used by political opponents or houses with a family feud. In the 18th century the ministry forbade this practise and put a tracing on the spell which were used to ban a person into the equirium plain. The ministry recovered the banned people with the help of a ritual after the opening of Azkaban and hold trials to discern if these wizard and witches were Dark or victims. The ones who were found guilty became the first occupants of Azkaban.

In spite of the ban of the ministry there are still rumored to be some portals to the equirium plain which were created by the old pureblood families to avoid the traced spell. But it is said that they are dangerous as one can hear the voices of the trapped which shall make the exposed person lose their minds."

This passage of the book made two things clear which were very important for Amy´s plan. Firstly Sirius is still alive just trapped in the equirium plain as he is fallen through a portal the veil.

Secondly he could be rescued like the ministry managed to recover the people from the equirium plain. Amy smiled at Athena who rolled-up in her lap and became a ball of glossy grey fur snoring lightly and oblivious to Amy´s excitement.

In the following chapter of Transpassing the theorie behind the portals was discussed and the ritual to build a temporary portal to the equirium plain was described. She would need the ritual and would have to modify the original banning spell to retrieve her uncle but with Harry´s help and some bloodmagic she was sure to be able to bring him back. After all Harry would gain his full magical resources and be an adult wizard.

And like her aunt always said "Magic makes wonders seem ordinary".

Harry was at the Dursleys. He just finished to wash the dishes and was oblivious of Amy´s plan. But he was preoccupied his scar was itching. It wasn't like the times before not a headache and pain but a constant distracting itching.

Harry wasn't sure if he should write an owl to Dumbledore about the incident. In the last year the connection between Voldemort and him had been completely sealed. He was nether able to feel his anger nor his joy. It was as if they no longer shared this unusual link and as if his scar was just that a scar.

Harry dreaded what this new development might mean. And he still didn't know when he would have to leave the Dursleys. He sighed he would have to wait and see the outcome. After all he wasn't a seer and nobody would have been able to guess what would happen.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Harry was sitting on a swing in the park and waiting for Amy. She had been secretively for the last few days. But he thought it was just because of his birthday which was the following day. Still he was very curious and hoped he wouldn't be brought to a safe house in the middle of the night. Because for the first time in nearly sixteen years he wanted to stay with the Dursleys for his birthday. Well, actually with his friend but that was the same thing.

Amy came hurrying from the gates to Harry. She came to a halt in front of him short of breath and only managed a weak smile in response to his greeting. After her breathing returned to normal her smile widend. Harry frowned. He had no idea why Amy was suddenly grinning like a maniac.

She bowed down to him to be on the same eye level and said "I did it!" which confused Harry only further.

"What did you?" Harry asked.

"I finished combining the spell and the ritual" Harry looked at her mystified.

"I'm sure we can bring him back." Amy said extremely excited.

"Whom?" Harry inquired still non the wiser with Amy´s answer.

"Sirus." She smiled from ear-to-ear while Harry´s eyes bulged after having proceeded this information. He looked at her shocked.
