Okay, so my next idea for the main part of this occurs during Harriet/Leto's fourth year at Hogwarts. That said, I didn't want to jump right to it. So this chapter is essentially filler, explaining what happened during her third year.

This is also a promise of, at least, one more chapter after this, detailing the events of my next idea in the continuing saga of Leto as Harriet Potter.

Chapter 4

Leto sighed, smiling gently as she stroked the blonde hair of the girl laying with her head in her lap.

In the year since regaining her memories, things had changed in the life she lived as Harriet Potter. The biggest, and to Leto best, was her meeting with blonde currently sleeping in her lap.

Luna Lovegood was a year younger than her, physically at least. She had met the young girl while staying at the Leaky Cauldron over the summer. Having her memories back had surprisingly driven all patience and tolerance she had for her mortal Aunt, Uncle, and Cousin out the window. After a week of resisting the urge to drive a kitchen knife through their skulls (which for a relatively peaceful being showed just how annoyed she was with them, and their previous treatment of her), she had packed up her belongings and booked a room at the Leaky Cauldron.

She had stayed there the rest of the summer. Though there had been a brief confrontation with with Dumbledore about her returning to the Dursleys. It had taken her declaring that Number 4 Privet Drive was not and had never been her home before he relented. She suspected the only reason he didn't then try to get her to live with the Weasley's for the rest of the summer was that they had already left to visit their eldest son/brother in Egypt. Luckily she had quite a few years more knowledge than she had before, and knew exactly how to make the blood wards she could now feel over the home obsolete (When one was stuck on an island for a couple thousand years, one had plenty of time to read all sorts of texts. She was just lucky that both her children supplied her with reading material when they visited.)

Luna had lost her father in the crowd of Diagon Alley, and had literally ran into Leto, begging for help finding her father. Of course what drew the mortal Titan's attention was that the blonde had called her Leto rather than Harriet.

It turned out that Luna was her several times great-granddaughter, and had somehow inherited her son's gift of sight, despite the diluted bloodline. Between that, her own natural motherly instincts as the Titan of Motherhood, and the fact that Luna's mother Selene had died in an accident a few years prior, had compelled Leto to not only help, but look after the young girl.

She had even given Luna permission to call her grandmother, in private of course.

Over the course of the summer, Luna spent almost everyday in Diagon Alley visiting Leto. And over the course of the school year (and Leto kicked herself for not reading up on magical Britain's laws sooner, which would have enabled her to teach Luna during the summer), Leto had taught Luna much of the magic she had learned over the years. Luna had helped her harvest and store the Basilisk. And (though it took some time as she didn't have access to her godly power and wasn't a craftsman regardless) after making a pair of bows from the bone's of the Basilisk, Leto had taken great joy in teaching the blonde girl archery.

Sadly, her new memories created a...distance between her and her closest two friends, Ron and Hermione. With her new memories, she found she really couldn't stand Ron's immature attitude and lack of work ethic. And Hermione was...well, honestly the brunette just reminded her way too much of Hera for her to be comfortable with her. It didn't help that most classes had become too easy. She'd read so much over the years, and had the power to back up her spells, even if it wasn't equivalent to her power as a Titan.

In fact the only classes that kept her engaged were Potions, where she had to be constantly alert for sabotage attempts as well as Snape's attitude towards her; Herbology, she had always loved gardening, and despite knowings things from reading, dealing with plants that could kill you in actuality while mortal was challenging; Divination, she'd taken the class on a dare from her son, it was entertaining and Leto had to keep herself from bursting out in laughter at the teacher every class; and Care of Magical creatures, not many animals had visited Delos, and before then not every animal she'd read of had lived in the Ancient Greece (plus she loved Hagrid, not romantically, but he was like a fun, loving, but slightly absent minded Uncle). So in regards to her grades, well they greatly improved.

Defense class was interesting. It didn't take her long to discover Professor Lupin was a werewolf, and it was only due to his kind nature that she didn't kill him once she found out. Discovering he had been a friend of her Mortal parents actually was more anger inducing for Leto.

If he'd been such a good friend of her 'parents' where had he been all of Harriet's life?

She may be a reborn Titan, but Leto still had all the memories of her life as Harriet Potter. Forgiving Lupin for not being there was not an easy thing for a being that valued her children above all else.

Speaking of children, while she had yet to reveal herself to Artemis, for a few reasons, Apollo tried to visit with her at least once a month, though sometimes more, just to talk and spend time with her. She had even introduced him to Luna (and she admitted it was odd that Luna called her Grandmother while her son was called Grandfather, though considering the great's in between it was sort of understandable). He had given Luna two gifts. One was a dagger made of celestial bronze, while the other was his blessing, which allowed Luna a bit more control over what she saw.

Of course not everything had been good. The supposed betrayer of her mortal parents, Sirius Black, had escaped from Azkaban, supposedly to murder her. On top of having to stop Apollo from hunting the man down (it had taken a lot of yelling, threats, and the reminder that he couldn't actually aid her without risking her being unable to regain her immortality), she had to deal with the dementors stationed around Hogwarts. The soul sucking creatures could make one relive their worst memories, and Leto had a lot more memories to exploit now than she had the previous two years at Hogwarts.

In her encounters with them, she'd seen her mortal parents deaths, her curse which bound her to Delos, being chased by Python while pregnant, giving birth to Artemis and Apollo alone and without aid while still hunted by the monstrous snake, and several other memories she'd rather forget.

She'd learned the patronus charm to drive the beings away eventually. The happy thought she used to power the spell was the idea of her reunited with both Artemis and Apollo along with Luna (who had quickly become a surrogate daughter to to Leto) and free of Delos.

Of course at the end of the year she discovered Sirius Black had in fact not betrayed her parents, but that it had been another close friend of James and Lily Potter, Peter Pettigrew. She'd discovered that her father and his friends, had become animagus to accompany their friend Remus on the full moon (and she admitted to finding out her mortal father's form was a stag a little bit ironic considering her daughter's sacred animal), with Peter having hidden in his form of a rat as the Weasley's pet Scabbers.

Sadly things did not go well and Peter escaped, while she had to help Sirius flee for his life along with the hippogriff Buckbeak, which had been sentenced to die for doing what came naturally to it.

She'd spent that following summer with Luna at her home. The two had worked on becoming animagus together, and by the end of summer had managed to complete the process. Luna could become a female Jersey Giant Rooster (Leto really couldn't describe it any other way, despite the fact that in nature all roosters were male), much to Leto's delight as the Rooster was her sacred animal.

To Leto's surprise, her form was that of a large female African Elephant. Though after some research she understood why. Elephants were among the best mother's in the animal kingdom, even adopting orphaned infants they didn't birth. If she ever regained her immortality, she decided that she'd take to elephant as another sacred animal because of that.

And now the two of them where on their way back to Hogwarts for their fourth and third years of schooling respectively.

Leto was hoping for a quiet year for a change. Though she voiced this hope to no one, hoping not to jinx it.

As I said, mostly filler. Though I chose the animagus forms due to the Rooster being the only animal I could find associated with Leto (considering I didn't know this when I wrote the last chapter and the Rooster's crow can kill a basilisk, there is a certain irony there). And the elephant, I found a few pages that listed the best mother's in the animal kingdom, only three animals were on every list, the Elephant, Alligator, and Polar Bear. Polar Bear, to me, seems to favor Artemis over Apollo as the bear is one of Artemis' sacred animals, alligators didn't feel right for Leto, so that left Elephants.
