Chapter 4
Harry was just getting off the train in King's Crossing after an uneventful journey back. Harry had spent the whole entire train ride using his newly developed occulumency skills to read through several books about alchemy, next years' potions and Herbology, Divination, Care of Magical creatures, spell creation, politics, Arithmacy, and History knowing that even without the wand, he could still look up theory.
Besides that, alchemy had a base in those subjects, so it would be a good idea to read up on them.
Once Harry got off the train, he immediately saw the Flamels waiting for him. He started walking towards them when he was stopped by Mrs. Weasley.
"Come along now dear, time to go back to your relatives." Mrs. Weasley said.
"I don't think so." Harry replied as he pushed past her.
"Dumbledore says it and besides, you don't have permission." Mrs. Weasley said.
"No, I do have permission, and besides that, the Dursleys were thrown in jail last year for child abuse and the Flamels got custody of me in both worlds. Dumbledore has no say in my life." Harry said.
Mrs. Weasley then blew up at him and said, "HARRY JAMES POTTER! How dare you insult the great Albus Dumbledore!"
"Thank you for finding him for us, Molly." Nicholas said, interrupting her before she could get on a full tirade.
Mrs. Weasley then pulled her wand on Nicholas, only to be hit by a stunning spell by an auror who took her away.
"Sorry for that rude interruption, Harry." Nicholas said.
"That's alright." Harry replied politely.
"Okay Harry, grab hold of this beer bottle and keep hold." Perenele instructed.
Harry did as asked and immediately felt a pulling sensation on his naval. Harry closed his eyes, only to tumble all of a sudden and bash his head on the ground.
The sound of laughter caused Harry to open his eyes and see a modern mansion around him. "This is the Flamel estate. This entire place will be yours one day." Nicholas said.
"What do you mean?" Harry asked.
"You haven't told him, have you, Nicholas?" Perenele asked sarcastically.
"Um, er, well, you see…" Nick started to stammer out.
"What Nick means is that Nick has made you the sole heir of the Flamels. We never have had a child due to the potion making us sterile, so we were looking for a good apprentice to leave everything to." Perenele explained.
"Oh." Harry said quietly.
"Nick, you were right in your choice." Perenele said.
"What do you mean?" Harry asked, curious about the answer.
"What she means is that telling you about us was the last test. We needed to be sure that you would be a good apprentice for us to have, so, a test was necessary." Nick explained.
A Couple months later (no Dobby event)…
"Now remember Harry, be safe and continue your tutoring." Perenele said while fretting over him.
"Mom! I'm fine!" Harry exclaimed, embarrassed at the fretting.
Harry had taken to calling them Mom and Dad about a month ago. Perenele teared up and hugged him right after that. It took a full hour to calm her down after that.
Harry waved goodbye out of his compartment window as the train departed.
Harry then read through his second year books and elective books, as well as his alchemy and occulumency books during the train ride back to Hogwarts. Even though he had read them before the summer, his occulumency wasn't good enough to remember every single fact, yet, so it was a good idea for him to reread the books so that he could pick up any of the information that he had missed.
"Hey Harry." Tracey said as she and Daphne walked into the compartment and sat down.
"Hey." Harry replied before they had an impromptu magic lesson during the trip, the others in their study group slowly filtered in. Once they were all in the compartment, they had a complete review of what magic that they had studied over the summer. Harry's was, by far, the fullest. He had studied a large amount of magic at the Flamels house.
Once they had gone over all of that, two new people showed up.
"Hi, sis." Astoria said as she plopped down next to Daphne.
"Hello, my name is Luna." Luna said, a bit dreamily.
Harry studied her for a few seconds before saying, "My name is Harry Potter-Flamel, seer Luna." He finished that statement with a bow.
"How did you know?" Luna asked curiously.
"Your expression and dress is common for someone who is a seer." Harry explained.
When Harry noticed the looks that he was getting from the rest of the stuffed compartment, he said, "What? I studied a bit about divination over the summer since it was a third year elective."
"You've already read the third year books!" Tracey exclaimed.
"Yeah, why? I can also do most of the second year magic pretty easily. I'm on fifth year for potions and Herbology, as well as fourth year for transfiguration due to their uses in alchemy. I plan on testing out of the school curriculum for potions and Herbology so that I can take some electives in their place. I already tested out of astrology." Harry said.
"How?" Daphne asked.
"My parents are pretty studious, and I have a pretty high degree of occulumency." Harry added the second bit as an afterthought.
"Going off about your accomplishments again, Potter?" A snide voice asked.
They all turned to see Ron Weasley in nothing better than rags.
"What the hell happened to you, Weasley?" Katie asked just as snidely as Ron.
"Father disowned Mum, me, Ginny, and Percy." Ron said.
"He was right to do so after what you guys did." Alicia said, looking at Ron like he was the worst person in the world, which he was.
"You're going down, Spinnet." Ron said as he took out his wand.
"Are you that stupid Weasley?" Harry asked. "No, don't answer that. It's obvious you are. You are in a compartment with ten people and you raise your wand at one of them."
"So what? All that I see in here are a squib, a bunch of useless girls, and a poor orphan who the Flamels took pity on." Ron sneered.
That was the last straw for Harry as he took out his wand and sent a pain spell of a lesser degree than the cruciatus and a dry spell that he had learned.
"AHH!" Ron screamed as he spit, only to see nothing come out. "W-what did you d-do t-to m-me Pott-ERR!"
"It was a continuous pain curse and a dry curse, both of them running in the Flamel line with no counter to them. The continuous pain curse is a curse that was used on disowned members of the Flamel. It would activate whenever they betrayed the Flamel family, preventing them from doing so. The other is called the dry spell, it allows you to drink and eat, but you will never taste the food, have children, pee, have sex, or even bleed, no matter how much you want to." Harry said. "Oh, yeah, neither of these spells are illegal, either. So, I won't get in trouble for using them."
Everyone that wasn't Ron were impressed with the spells. The rest of the trip went without incident except for a prefect making sure that they didn't use an illegal spell against Ron.
When Harry explained what Ron had done, the prefect was furious, and from a Slytherin prefect, that's something. She applauded Harry for what he had done and even had gone so far as to give him a kiss on the cheek before winking and turning away.
The other people in the apartment were holding their laughter for a few seconds before Harry said, "Go ahead and laugh."
Then, as one, the group burst out laughing while holding their stomachs.
The rest of the trip was spent with Harry grumbling and his friends laughing.
Done! Please enjoy, and my deepest respects to my readers for not updating sooner.
