Harry did not have to wait long.
A double knock at the door signaled the arrival of his keepers. His jailers. Ok, maybe not, or maybe...
The door opened.
The person before him looked normal enough. Blond hair, blue eyes, normal height. Nothing alien here Hermione...not yet- He thought.
And then he saw the eyebrows.
Her eyebrows were a darker color than the girl's hair, for it looked like she was just a teenager, and yes, the eyebrows were exactly like that knight's, the one in the painting.
"I hope your stay has been satisfactory" - The girls said, a smile on her face.
Harry, albeit the way she spoke and her welcoming manner, was weary and very cautious of her when he replied:
"My name is Harry James Potter, Ambassador of Hogwarts and I would like to request a meeting with his Excellency Treize Khushrenada"- He hoped he got the name right and the pronunciation, Hermione's calculations might have been off but at the time this was the name the Time Bender had given Trelawney; and even though she wasn't very good at teaching, she was definitely the seer to-go-to for life-or-death matters.
The girl's face became wretched for a few seconds before speaking.
"I am afraid I have terrible news Mr. Ambassador, dear Master Treize has passed away, in fact he passed away more than three years ago"- She paused and stood a few feet away from where Harry was now standing, looking discouraged.
"My name is Dorothy Catalonia, even though I cannot facilitate an audience with his deceased Excellency, I can facilitate a meeting with former Queen Relena now Foreign Minister and sister to Milliardo Peacecraft; King of the Sanq Kingdom"- She seemed full of mirth as she said this and Harry trusted her even less.
"That would be very generous, Miss"- Harry didn't know if the latter was true.
"And now this is the part where you tell me why you were drowning in the middle of the Berber Ocean"- Dorothy was calm as she pulled a chair from the middle of the room and sat, waiting for Harry to tell his story.
"I apologize but this information is confidential and will only tell it to a high-ranking official"-Harry gave the line just like Hermione had told him to practice, for once, he had listened.
"That is not acceptable, Mr. Potter. Even so, I am not stranger to diplomatic matters, Queen Relena taught me much" - She smiled and for the first time it seemed to Harry as if she was genuine.
"When you are ready, we will take the trip to the Sanq Kingdom"- She got up to leave and Harry was not about to wait any longer.
"If it is not much of an inconvenience, I am ready now" - Harry looked at Dorothy and added: "And I would appreciate my luggage be brought back to me"
Dorothy smiled and said: "That is certainly possible, later. For now I will get it under custody; you have to understand we do not know if what you carry inside it will be a threat to Miss Relena and Mr. Milliardo, they are very important people you see" - She approached the door and looked back with a vapid smile on her face.
"We must protect what is precious to us" - She opened the door and uttered : "After you"
Harry didn't like this girl at all.
But he followed, because he had no other option.
And aside for Hermione's scolding, he knew he had to do whatever was in his power to help win the war at home.
Angst, Gundam, and Harry.
AN: Characters owned by their authors respectively. You might notice I do not follow every plot point to a T, I think this makes the story more viable and the plot stronger, I apologize in advance for any Harry fans who are outraged, I love Harry too, I just write fanfiction :].
Reviews always welcome.
