Chapter 4
Harry walked slowly through the deserted hallway, because students were still in classes. He arrived at the statue guarding Professor Dumbledores office. It peered at him with knowing eyes. Harry mumbled the password and it leapt to the side granting him access to the revolving stairs lifting to the office. He walked up the stairs and knocked on the door. He heard a soft 'come in' and entered the office. He looked around and noticed that everything was fixed considering he destroyed the office only yesterday. Dumbledore sat in his golden chair with Mcgonagall on his left and Snape on his right,for once not sneering at Harry.
"Ah Harry please come in and have seat." Said Dumbledore with a small smile. Harry moved towards a leather chair and sat down, nervousness radiating from his body.
'Be calm.' Phoenix whispered to him. He breathed in and out and composed himself.
"We have much to discuss Harry, especially about what happened to young Mr Weasley." Dumbledore said with a serious face. The candle flames grew to a larger size aswell as some of the objects in his office rattled. Harry was back to being nervous again.
"Relax Harry you are not in any trouble." Harry breathed a sigh of relief at the news.
"However during the..um..accident he has lost his one arm and sustained a lot of broken bones and slight internal bleeding." Dumbledore said with a grimace, Harry saw out of the corner of his eye Snape's lips twitch upward a bit.
"Do you find that amusing Professor?" Harry asked Snape with shining green eyes. Snapes mouth lifted more until it was a small smile.
"Yes I actually do."
"SEVERUS! How can you say that?! No student deserves that kind of treatment." Said Mcgonagall.
"That...Pig is lucky he still has his miserable life." Said the cold voice of Harry. All three of them stared at the boy infront of them, surprised he could be so emotionless.
"Harry you certainly don't mean that." Said Dumbledore. He just smirked at the shocked teachers.
"Trust me when I say I do, as I have done to my enemies for thousands of years. Normally I do not let my victim live so that was a first." Harry's irises had changed to a black colour.
"Phoenix." Dumbledore said. Mcgonagall's face had gone pale and Snapes was a mask of indifference.
"Correct. It is a pleasure to make your aquitence Albus Dumbledore." Said Phoenix while making Harry's body do a slight bow, still smirking.
"Where is Harry?" He asked with a small smile.
"He is here, listning to the conversation and laughing at your reactions to finding out it was me." The smirk was replaced with a grin.
"Why are you speaking instead of Mr. Potter?" asked Mcgonagall.
"We thought it would be easier if I were to talk." They all nodded.
"Okay then may I ask a few questions." Phoenix nodded Harry's head in agreement.
"Are you a danger to any of my students bar Mr Weasley?" Dumbledore asked, all humour replaced with seriousness.
"No, not unless they prevoke me or are a threat to my well being, for example Mr Finnegins stunt in DADA could of killed us so we hurt him just to incapacitate him." She explained. Dumbledore nodded his head.
"Yes, Remus did tell me about that incident and Mr Finnegin will be punished for using such a harmful spell."
"If that is all Professor my host and I have a potions class to attend to and we would nit like to late." she said with a smirk as she eyed the potions professor.
"Yes of course, but can we try not let Voldemort find about how Harry is playing host to an entity older than time?" She shook her head.
"I will not hide, if Woldeworts finds out so be it, we can not and will not hide forever." She said with conviction. Mcgonagall and Snape tried to keep a straight face when Phoenix called Voldemort, Woldeworts.
"Very well then, I must also inform you that Mr and Mrs Weasley have been notified about thier sons condition and who did it, so I'm assuming she will most likely make an appearance at breakfast tomorrow." Dumbledore said with a frown. Phoenix smirked.
"Splendid we can have our revenge on that over bearing, fruit tart. " And with that she left Dumbledores office and gave Harry back his control. Harry started to laugh silently to himself while Phoenix smiled at him.
Back in Dumbledores Office.
"Albus are you sure it is wise that you let Mrs Weasley anywhere near Mr Potter?" asked a worried Minerva.
"They will eventually cross paths sooner or later, so why not sooner?" he asked.
"Surely he will kill her if she pushes him to far, honestly I want to strangle her sometimes at Order Meetings." She said with a scowl.
"Mr Potter has every right to kill Mrs Weasley and Ronald." He said solemnly.
"How can you say such a thing!"
"It is law Minerva, Molly and Ronald stole from an Ancient and Noble family and if I remember correctly that when one steals from the Potters that they can be put to death." He said.
"Surely the ministry would never allow such a thing!" she exclaimed.
"If the ministry did nothing I assure you Minerva that every pure-blooded family, light or dark will see to it themselves that they be executed." Stated Severus which made Mcgonagall jump, she forgot he was in the room.
"Severus is right." sighed the old headmaster. "We can only hope that Harry will not kill them. Severus I want you to watch him please." Snape nodded then left to go teach his potions class.
"Well that was an odd sight." Said Minerva.
"Why do you say that my dear."
"For once he did not sneer when we asked him to watch over the boy." She said. Dumbledore just laughed.

Harry had finally reached the potions class, although a few minutes late so of course when he entered he was the last one and all eyes were on him, some held curiosity and respect (Slytherins) while most looked upon him with hate and disgust (Gryffindors minus Hermoine and Neville.) He just rolled his eyea at the immature Gryffindors and sat in the seat at the back of the class. Not a second later a piece of paper landed on his desk, he picked it up and it read, 'Loser' and 'Pathetic', down to 'Liar'. He gave a small chuckle, then smirked at the sender as he made the note burst into flames. The senders eyes widened before he turned around and focused on the desk he was sitting at. Snape burst in a minute later, black cloak flowing out behind him making him look like a bat thought Harry.
"Today you will be making the Drought of Living Death and will be partnered with someone from the opposite house." Snape smirked as the whole class groaned.
"Silence! Now the pairs are as follows: Granger, Parkinson; Longbottom, Zabini; Thomas, Bulstrode; Potter, Malfoy." Snape smirked at the last pair as they glared at him.
"Alright now go to your partner and get to work...oh and this will count 20% towards your final mark." He laughed internally. Harry reluctantly got up and went to Malfoys bench and sat down. Harry glanced at Malfoy and found grey eyes staring intently at him, no hint of malice in them.
"Umm...everything okay Malfoy?" Harry asked hesitantly, trying not to anger the boy. Malfoy just shook his head and turned back to the board with the instructions on them.
"Hey um listen, I know we don't really get along but since we both need this mark and your good at potions how about we call a truce and you can tell me what to chop and dice and add." Malfoy was staring at him, he slowly nodded his head.
"Very well Potter a truce...for now." They both gave small smiles and shook hands which they quickly retracted as an electrical heat surged through them. They both shook thier heads and turned to start working.
"Alright Potter, you go get the ingredients and I'll set up the couldren and equipment. " Harry just nodded and went to get the ingredients. He came back with his arms full of wierd, disgusting things.
"Right now, I need you to chop these finely and add them one by one while I crush the bat eyes." Harry got to work on chopping and adding the wierd things to the couldren making it bubble and hiss. Working with Malfoy wasn't so bad, they actually worked pretty well together and sometimes when thier hands brushed together that electric charge would return and Harry didn't know what it was. When Snape appeared behind Harry and watched him work he got nervous which made a few vials shake slightly, but he calmed when Draco's hand accidentally brushed against his when reaching for a jar unknown to Harry, Snape left to go mock other students on thier potions. Pretty soon they were done and realised they were the first to finish. Draco took a vial and bottled the potion, then made his way to Snapes desk to hand it in. As he was walking there Dean "accidentally" stuck his foot out and tripped Draco, he stumbled and sent the vial hurling towards the floor only to have it stop a centimetre from the ground. Draco stared at the floating vial before turning to look at Harry and notice those emerald eyes replaced with black irises. He turned back to the vial and saw it floating toward him, he held out his hand and it dropped into his hand. He continued his way until he reached Snapes desk and put the vial on his desk.
"Well...um good work Mr Potter and Mr Malfoy since you two are finished you may leave. " Draco turned back and headed towards his desk and started packing his things away and noticed Potters black irises changed back into those emerald green.
Harry was getting nervous under his classmates intense stares and some bottles and jars started to shake, candle flames started to get brighter. Snape noticed this and quickly adressed the class.
"What are you lot staring at!? Get back to work!" he yelled. He saw a thank you in Potters eyes.
Draco and Harry quickly left the potions class and walked a bit away from it before Harry sighed and slid down the wall until he was seated with his chin resting on his knees.
"Are you okay Potter?" Draco asked with a bit of concern. Harry looked up at steel grey eyes that sometimes changed to molten silver when Draco was angry.
"Yes, yes I am you don't have to worry." Draco scoffed at him.
"I'm not worried, Malfoys never worry." He said with his head held high. Harry cracked a small grin at him.
"Really? Normally worried people ask others how they are doing. Does the Draco Malfoy actually care?" Harry was now grinning like a maniac.
"I am not worried and I do not care!" Draco said, his cheeks turning a bit pink.
" Yea I believe you, thanks for caring and not assuming im turning into a monster. " He sent a small smile towards the blonde teen.
"You are not a monster and I was expecting something like that to happen." He smirked.
"What do you mean?" Harry asked confused.
"Well you are Harry Potter everything weird and unexplainable happens to you so yea nothing new and I expected Weasley to steal from you." He said this as if discussing the weather.
"I always knew he was jealous but I never would of thought him and his mother would steal from me, I'm actually happy I destroyed his arm and broke his bones." Harry said with anger.
"And I enjoyed every minute of watching it." Draco said with a smirk.
"Don't lie you were so screaming like a girl." Harry laughed at Draco's face.
"I was not screaming like a girl." Draco huffed and crossed his arms over his chest glaring at Harry.
"I might not have been myself but I thought I could hear you screaming." Harry was full on laughing now.
"Shut it!" Draco exclaimed although his voice didn't have its usual venom in it.
"Huh will you look at that we are having a civil conversation and the world didn't implode." Harry said giving a small smile.
"Yea say Potter do you maybe...umm...wanna start over with our relationship and maybe be friends?" Draco asked nervously. Harry looked at him with a straight face then smiled at him.
"You know I would like that very much." Harry got up and stuck out his hand. "Hi my name is Harry Potter I like to play quidditch and have a supposed hero complex."
Draco laughed before grabbing Harry's hand and shook. " Hi I'm Draco Malfoy I like potions and think I'm better than everyone and I'm sorry for all those years I insulted you." Harry laughed at that and realised they were still holding hands, he slowly let Draco's hand go and stepped back as the school bell rang.
"Apology accepted. Well looks like we have to go, see you later Draco." Harry said, truth is he didn't want to leave yet because it was very fun talking to the Slytherin Ice Prince.
"Yea I head to Arithmacy see you later." Harry gave him one last smile before turning around and walking off. Draco did notice how Harry referred to himself as 'we' and shook his head still declaring Harry an enigma, one that he will solve.
Phoenix smirked inside Harry's head at the two boys and couldn't wait till they found out how much they actually need eachother.
'Oh how the earth will shake.' She said to herself.

The rest of the day passed relatively normal for Harry, except all the staring and whispering. He soon found himself at dinner eating with Neville, Hermoine, Ginny, and the Weasley twins. He remembered that he has a meeting with them tonight after dinner. He looked up and caught eyes with Draco and gave him a smile which was returned subtly. Hermoine noticed his smile.
"Who are you smiling at like a loon?" She asked.
Harry shrugged and replied simply. "Draco." They all turned wide eyes on him and were gonna say something until Harry stopped them.
"Please don't yell and ask, I'll explain later when we meet okay." They all nodded and continued eating.
They eventually were finished thier food and stood up and left the Great Hall. They walked to The Room Of Requirement silently. They arrived on the 7th floor to a blank wall. Harry closed his eyes and soon the wall started shifting until a door appeared, they walked inside to a comfy looking living room with couches infront of a fireplace. They got comfy on the couches and were soon joined by Remus and Luna.
"Luna? What are you doing here?" Harry asked confused.
"Did you really think I would just abandon you Harry? No I won't." She said determinedly. Harry gave her a small smile and gestured for her to sit down. It wasn't even five seconds before the questions about earlier at dinner were asked.
"Why the hell were you smiling at Malfoy?" Ginny asked.
"Ummm well we kinda became friends." He replied.
"Bullshit! Enemies for 4 years dont just become friends what happened." Ginny said.
"Ok umm it was after potions class, I walked out and sat on the floor with my head in my hands. Draco asked if I was okay and then I told him normally people who hate each other dont say how you are doing and accused him of caring and being worried. He said he didn't and then he asked if we could redo our relationship to be friends instead and he apologised. So yea thats how we became friends...sort of. " He said with a serious face.
"Well okay, now tell us does the cranky dragon smile ever?" Asked Fred.
"Yes he does...it's actually a nice smile. " He said. Hermoine covered a smile with her hand.
"Okay enough if they are friends so what, now the important queations. How did you do all of those things and who is Phoenix?" Asked Remus.
"Well umm I could do all of those things by using telekinesis which was given to me by Phoenix. Phoenix is the goddess of creation and destruction. She is a master in telepathy and telekinesis. She has longed to find a host that can handle her powers and so she can feel campassionate or else she would destroy innocent worlds. We have bonded and our powers are joined but I won't have full control yet."
"Why won't you have full control yet?" Neville asked.
"In order for me to get full control I need to find my mate who is a guy, she refuses to tell me who he is. My mate is the only one my powers cannot harm." Harry said.
"Woah Harry so your gay?" asked George.
"No I'm bisexual!" they all laughed at his blushing face.
"What do you mean she wont tell you?" Asked Hermoine.
" Well the Phoenix is a girl and I talk to her in my head." he said.
"Wicked" both twins said.
"So she can hear what we are talking about?" Ginny asked.
"Yes she can."
"Cool."
"Wassup-"
"Mrs Phoenix." said the twins. Suddenly Harry's eyes turned black and he laughed but it was mixed with a womens.
"You two amuse me greatly. " Phoenix said to the shell-Shocked audience. Ginny was the first to recover.
" Oh my fuck, we are talking to a bloody goddess." she said.
"It is an honor to be in your presence great goddess." Said Luna who bowed her head respectively. Phoenix bowed back to her.
"Now that your shock is over do you have any questions for me?" she asked.
"Are you a danger to Harry?" Hermoine asked.
"Ahh the intelligent friend, no I am not a danger to him but I am a danger to all those who wish to harm us and will crush them." She said with venom in her voice.
"Oooh well that's ok as long as you don't harm Harry or we will all find a way to destroy you." Ginny said threateningly.
"Mmm I accept your terms it was a pleasure meeting you all." She said before Harry's eyes reverted back to normal.
" Well now that we know you are okay if a bit mentally unstable for befriending Malfoy I think we should head to bed." said Ginny.
"Yea good idea Gin. Well come on guys, night Remus, night Luna." The five Gryffindors returned to the Gryffindor dorm with only a few residents awake.
"Well guys thanks for listening and letting me explain so now if you will excuse me im going to shower then sleep." He said goodnight to them all then made his way to 5th year dorm.
He went in to the room and got a towel and his sleeping clothes and headed into the bathroom. He stripped and started the shower, he got in and washed away the dirt and stress of the day. He finished his shower and got out, as ge was drying iff he noticed in the mirror something on his back, he went to stand infrot of the mirror and nearly screamed as ge saw the bird shaped tattoo on his back.
"What the fuck is that?" He asked eyeing the tattoo suspiciously.
'That is a tattoo.' Phoenix told him and laughed at the mental glare he sent her way.
"I know but what is it and why is it there?" he asked.
'The bird is a Phoenix and it is there because it is the mate tattoo.' she said.
"Ok but what do you mean by mate tattoo."
'It means you have met your mate so the tattoo appeared. '
"But that could be anyone."
'Not really, remember your mate is a guy.' she smirked.
"Yes and there are like what 500 guys in the school." he said glaring.
'You will know who he is when the time is right.'
"Yea thats bloody helpful." He grumbled.
'Shhh just get dressed and go to sleep.' Harry got dressed and climbed into bed after casting a few wards on his bed for protection. He soon fell asleep because Phoenix was humming a lullaby.
'I can't wait till they realise they are mates.' She had an evil grin on her face she imagined thier reactions.
