Chapter 6: Chosen of Anubis
Chaos…
Utter chaos is how one would describe the Pharaoh market at the moment.
Medjai soldiers held their swords and wands ready as they helped the rescue crew in their efforts. At the same time the captain of the soldiers proceeded to question the still conscious wizards and witches to determine the extent of this crime.
Wizards raised their wands and cast multiple water spells controlling nearby flames from spreading and the same time they began to move to the epicenter of the explosion.
An old bookstore, but they weren't the only ones.
"Tempus siste (Halt Time)" Everything in the area of the now collapsed bookstore froze, as time slowed to a crawl.
The golden masked visage of Morgaine Le Fay walked forward, her son Mordred beside her. Mordred had his glowing hand raised indicating that he was the one who cast the spell, he turned to his mother "The tracking charm ended here, mother."
"Hmm, that accursed lightning magic has dispelled all of my spells on Harry… to think that he would do something as strange as this."
Mordred scoffed "That Pharaoh was always a bit nutty, who knows what he has planned that he needs to kidnap a child."
Morgaine Le Fay nodded "His reasons do intrigue me. But Harry's safety is our primary concern and if we happen to cross paths with Adam then I can teach him a lesson in humility."
"Shall I inform both Acelin and Gavriil to proceed with the plan to retrieve the books and assist us?" Mordred inquired as he bent down to feel the scorched earth.
"No, it will be unnecessary and troublesome if they lug those artifacts all the way here. The Medjai aren't very forgiving of tomb raiders."
"It's not as if they can stop us if they tried mother."
"Now, Now, Mordred talking like that got you thrown in a prison in 18th century Berlin, remember? And that was for mistaking a Fabergé egg for a Ziz egg." Mordred got depressed when his mother mentioned that little fiasco.
"I actually thought it was a Ziz!" Mordred exclaimed before he straightened himself "Let's just head out and find Harry."
"Kaerb trapa eht lleps erofeb em dna laever ym delaecnoc seof! (Break apart the spell before me and reveal my concealed foes!)"
Morgaine and Mordred turned to the voice that shattered their spell like broken glass and revealed an angry Giovanni Zatara.
He pointed his cane at them "Morgaine Le Fay what did you do with my daughter?!"
.
.
"Ask for one and I receive two. Did the store have a sale on magical children or did you decide to have a quick stop elsewhere." The mocking tone came from a blue skinned man, his clothes pure-red and a black cape with gold accents. His black hair shaped to devil-horn style, his otherworldly eyes red in color and with pitch black sclera studying the two children that Black Adam brought before him.
The smell of Ozone surrounded the area as he glared at the immortal Viking sorcerer "You would do well to remember you're not in Jórvík, Wotan! I am and forever shall remain the pharaoh of this land and you will defer me with the proper respect or we will see how immortal you truly are."
Wotan drew on his own reserves of power forcing the shadows to lengthen and causing the environment to chill ominously in response to Adam's threat, on could even see the frost beginning to permeate around the edges of the ruins, Wotan considered reneging on the deal and cut Adam to size so to speak. But after carefully running scenarios in his mind even he knows the outcome wouldn't be favorable for the current plan, no doubt he'd hold his own against the immortal pharaoh but the muscular powerhouse isn't someone you fought willingly, he sighed "Enough of this pettiness; lets us just go through with this and go our separate ways."
"Yes, let's" The tall, pointy eared, black haired, muscle-bound powerhouse Black Adam strode forward, into a ruined tunnel that ran underneath the port city of Alexandria, Egypt. He wears a skintight black uniform with yellow boots, a sash and a golden lightning bolt insignia on his chest, an insignia he utterly despises.
He questioned Wotan "Why are we here in the first place? What secrets of Ptolemy did you uncover?"
"The Grand Library of Alexandria" Wotan stated "To be more accurate the Serapeum."
"Did you bring me here to chase ghosts?! The Serapeum was destroyed by Pope Theophilus in 391 AD. I watched the Library burn down myself, unable to stop it." His black eyes held great anger at the mention of the burning.
Wotan laughed "That is what is recorded in history but I have uncovered the actual truth, the library survives and it lies beneath the eyes of the public. You could say Ptolemaic descendants learnt their lesson after the burning during Caesar's reign. The Magician Nome's of the time convened at the behest of Queen Cleopatra had constructed a secret repository of every object, scroll, spell ever collected for thousands of years, under one roof… the safest place on earth, warded against all who are not permitted, not even the justice league with all their power can enter. Alas, the ward sealed itself after the end of the Ptolemaic line as no one was given responsibility for this vault. What that hedonistic Pope destroyed was nothing but a smokescreen, a body double that meant absolutely nothing."
The stopped before a disguised rock face, which Wotan with a wave of his hand revealed to be a large set of obsidian black doors with two jackal headed guardians at either side, at the helm of the gate was the marble head of a bull with a golden disc held in its horns.
Black Adam nodded impressed "The Serapeum, temple of Serapis. There had better be a way to break the spells he has wrought or this time it will burn by my hand."
"Calm yourself, Teth-Adam. You'll have your revenge soon enough, but first lets awaken our young prisoners." Wotan spoke with a cruel smirk as he cast a sharp stinging hex at the unconscious kids causing them to awaken to the pain of being stabbed by a thousand needles.
Harry awoke gritting his teeth and twisting over the earth, he called for his magic to end this pain. Following his command, his magic cancelled the spell, breathing a sigh of relief he heard a cry of pain beside him and a stuttering "l-l-lepsid"
Harry saw Zatanna struggle to stop the spell, the pain interfering with her own spells. Harry in an effort to help her reached out and held her hand and had his magic flow around her cancelling the hex placed upon her.
"Interesting…" Harry turned to the source of the voice and saw the faces of his kidnappers, the blue skinned one continued "It appears that you've been mentored in the arts, to use one's own magic to cancel spells without the use of a foci is quite a feat for someone of your age."
"Who are you?" Harry stood shakily, the blue skinned man laughed "I'm Wotan and my colleague here is Black Adam. I already know of young Zatanna over here, I know not who you are."
Harry kept silent, Wotan didn't seem to care that he didn't get an answer "Secretive are we, no matter. You'll be journeying into the underworld soon enough."
Harry created plasma bolts in his hands ready to fight; Black Adam raised an eyebrow and stepped forward. Harry shot one bolt at him only for him to grab it and enforce his power on it causing it to crackle with yellow energy which he then threw back.
It landed squarely at Harry's feet causing him to blown back by the force of the explosion he would've had a very intimate encounter with the rock wall if not for the fact he stopped mere centimeters from the wall hovering in the air.
"Definitely trained in the arts, I have use of you yet." Wotan his hand glowing blue as it held Harry up, he gestured and Harry was pulled towards him. Zatanna too was pulled forward dazed from the explosion, "I suppose I should tell you why you're going to die."
Wotan conjured an ornate box with an insignia of a golden scorpion, "Inside is the Bracelet of Anubis, and now putting it on wouldn't kill you but opening the lock on this ward using it will." He gestured to the door and continued "You see this ward is ancient and the ones who placed it invoked the name of Anubis, god and guardian of the underworld and even the name of Apophis was invoked now that was extremely rare. But despite all this there is a chink in the armor, you see the last lord of this place was child Pharaoh and as such we needed a child to open the door but it wouldn't let any child walk in, that is where the Bracelet of Anubis will help its power will trick the wards long enough that the door opens but alas for they did invoke the name of Apophis in the spell work as well. As soon as the ward falls it will recognize the bearer of the bracelet as an intruder and hence give him or her… a swift yet excruciatingly painful trip to the underworld."
He opened the box revealing a golden bracelet with intricate inscriptions and a clear depiction of a small jackal's head on the top, they could feel the latent magic in the item and it was formidable. Wotan gestured having it hover before the 2 children "Now I have a predicament, on who will be my key."
"Will it be you young mage." The box hovered before Harry but then hovered before Zatanna "Perhaps I should go back to my original plan of using young Zatanna here and gain some measure of revenge against her father. Decisions, decisions"
Wotan though enjoying the terrified expression of Zatanna moved towards Harry whose resolute gaze showed him that the boy would do it, 'A young hero in the making and a fool like the rest.' "The young mage will suffice for now; I will have to think up of something for young Zatanna later."
Black Adam strode forward and placed the bracelet upon Harry's right wrist "I pray that Osiris grants you peace, child."
Harry was genuinely surprised to hear that regretful tone from the tall man, but any other thoughts were cut short as his body writhed under the enormous power that flowed from the bracelet.
For a moment it seemed as though nothing had happened, there was nothing but silence. Before Black Adam could inspect the bracelet he and even Wotan were thrown against the wall like dolls, Zatanna looked on in mute shock at the display of power. Harry stood there his eyes glowing gold, his hair a shade darker and a grey flame inscribed a scorpion onto his shirt.
He raised his hand, golden energy dancing around it and as he spoke the spells his voice sounded almost harmonic "kekewey hai (Darkness descend)"
The shadows then swirled around both Black Adam and Wotan ensnaring them like spider web, Black Adam shaking off the buzz his head felt after that blow prepared to fight "SHA…"
Wotan interjected "Don't Black Adam, just give my spells a moment to enforce themselves." He laughed as he eyed Harry "Calling you a mage is an insult, you're a Warlock."
At that point the spells that Wotan had weaved over the bracelet enforced themselves and Harry soon moved towards the door, unaware of Zatanna's cries against it he held his palm to the door and spoke "sen (open)"
If one watched the events from a third perspective, one would expect an impressive show of power as the young power-possessed boy opened the door to this ancient temple vault, such a scenario is what one would expect if they knew aforementioned would lose his life the moment he opened the door. A large flash of light, a groan of power having a tug-of-war with the ancient spells, no…all that happened was a large audible click and the hovering boy to be covered in a grey energy as he crumpled on the ground his heart stopped, his gaze vacant, his breathing halted.
The boy was dead.
The Potter line had ended.
Wotan scoffed as he stood, uncaring that he had ended an innocent child's life. Black Adam picked up a shocked Zatanna and dragged her away from the scene; though he would deny it but one could see the regret that was within his eyes, he bowed his head and spoke a small prayer and moved to follow Wotan into the vault.
Neither of them realized that by killing the young Potter they had just unleashed a great terror upon themselves. If seen from a third perspective, that perspective having knowledge of Harry's past, present and future one would assume it to be the boy's to be nemesis Voldemort, no with all due respect Voldemort may be a powerful wizard but he was a pissant with daddy issues.
No the greatest terror would be in the form of the boy's uncle Mordred, son of King Arthur.
And Morgaine Le Fay, the greatest sorceress to ever exist, the only one capable of challenging the great Merlin Ambrosius to a standstill and the one and only true Mistress of the dark.
If either of them knew that the boy was her grandson they may have gone about this differently but alas for them that was neither here nor there for the child still remains dead.
.
.
"Whatever do you mean, Homo Magi?" Morgaine Le Fay spoke in a puzzled tone, "I have neither idea nor inclination to know about your daughter's whereabouts."
Mordred hands glowed orange as his prepared for a fight as the local Magical Law enforcement and Medjai surrounded them. It would be all but a second for him to activate the general assault call and have all of his mother's subordinates here.
But not unless his mother orders it, he would have to be content with handling the situation himself. He grinned 'Oh Happy day…'
Zatara losing his composure spoke in anger "flugne ni semalf (Engulf in Flames)"
To which Morgaine Le Fay responded in an amused tone "dleihS tsniaga semalf dna esuac a tfardkcab ta eht ecruos (Shield against Flames and cause a backdraft at the source)"
The result of this sentence was immediate and resulted in a backdraft explosion at the source which meant a point blank explosion for Giovanni Zatara. Morgaine Le Fay stepped forward a translucent blue shield surrounding her "Now listen here, Homo Magi. I don't have a quarrel with you and I most definitely didn't kidnap your daughter. Are all you hero types soft in the head, why would I kidnap your daughter and then stand here waiting for you to find out?"
Zatara though a little smoking from the explosion, didn't suffer any major injuries as various enchantments protected him from the worst of it. He winced as Morgaine again called him by his race name; yes he was a Homo Magi from a different dimension. Earthly magic users always held some form of derision against Homo Magi, but those troubles started and could be traced back to the middle ages. He said nothing as he knew from his own people's history that it was their own fault for the rift, Homo Magi's vaunted superiority of magic was the cause for this.
Zatara still convinced that she was somehow related to the disappearance of his daughter and this destruction till he felt a familiar spike of magic from underneath the rubble, angry red energy pierced through the rubble "Morgaine Le Fay isn't responsible for this, Giovanni. In fact she is here for the same reason as you."
The owner of the bookstore hovered through the rubble a translucent red bubble surrounding him; Zatara stood shakily "M-Master Zev…"
"Be quiet! Lady Morgaine is right, you didn't think before you acted. I know you're worried sick about your daughter but to lose your common sense only does harm for your daughter. Besides it was Teth-Adam that was the cause of this destruction." Zev turned to see the Medjai and the local Magical Law Enforcement; he whipped out a golden amulet shaped like a pyramid.
The effect was immediate; they bowed muttering "Zev the Ankh, the immutable shield." "Damn its mentor, we thought he was dead." "The crazy jackal is still alive."
Zev smirked evilly "Now lads, I'm handling the situation and if your superiors ask tell them I cursed you all…unless of course any of you think you can tag along for a match with Black Adam."
When none of them moved he added "Those who stay volunteer to be my personal human shield."
Mordred blinked at how fast people moved away and disregarded them entirely, it was almost comical. Mordred turned to Zatara with a puzzled look "One of my mentors in my youth, Zev Ankh. Legendary teacher and Auror here in Magical Africa and Arabia, most noted for his ruthlessness towards budding Dark Wizards/Witches. His shield spells are nigh unbreakable some say not even the death curse can penetrate it. Hence his nickname Zev the Ankh or Zev the Life"
"Avada Kedavra!"
A red shield erupted around Zev protecting him against the emerald green death curse that collided with his shield, neither the shield nor the curse giving way. The curse dissipated soon enough, Zatara looked on shocked as he stared at Morgaine who fired that curse. She spoke amused "Impressive, so the rumors do have some truth in them after all. I couldn't hear the spell you cast but it was clearly Hebrew…let me guess you stumbled upon a true word."
Zev nodded "But I doubt you're here to discuss magical theory with an old bookkeeper. I assume you are the guardian of young Harry Potter."
"What gave you that idea?"
"It was a nice attempt by a 9 year old kid but what can you expect he is still a child after all. Plus I'm a close friend of that long bearded nut-less wonder Dumbledore and that prancing pony Alastor Moody, they kept me apprised of the situation regarding their dark lord and showed me a magical approximation of what the lad would look like, pretty good description." Zev smiled.
Morgaine huffed "I assume you're inviting yourself to help us. Do as you wish, surgo lapis praetor (Arise Stone Praetor)."
A runic spell circle glowed under Morgaine's feet as numerous eyes opened in the earth, "sequor et secura (Seek and Secure)"
.
.
An hour had passed as the four reluctant partners rode on the moving mound of earth deep underground.
"Why are we underground of all places?" Zev asked out loud.
"Getting claustrophobic?" Mordred quipped, Zev's raised his hand to his face allowing the ethereal red to shine ominously "No, it's just that enclosed spaces gives me an itchy trigger finger."
"What a coincidence" Mordred raised a glowing hand and stated with a cheery voice "Me too!"
"Stop acting like children…" Morgaine warned them, Zatara curious asked "Lady Le Fay, may I ask how we are tracking your grandson and presumably my daughter."
"You may."
"…" Zatara just waited with a dumbfounded expression for her to answer, "Lady…"
"I had placed numerous spells and runes upon Harry's person so that while we may separate I could monitor him at all times." Morgaine interrupting him, Zatara who could feel her judging eyes "Why do you ask? Had you not thought the same?"
"I placed spells on my daughter as well but Black Adam's magic is old and it effectively cancelled any spells that I placed. This is why I asked how you could still track your grandson."
"I embedded a chain of runes into his clothing which not only strengthened them but also can allow me to track him. The power required to shut it down by force needs to be near lethal." Morgaine patting one of the eyes continued "This is a golem that I created especially to track and watch over Harry, I…"
Their conversation was interrupted when suddenly they stopped moving the many eyes of the golem frantically searching hither-thither and the loud violent screeching. Their hands went to their ears in an attempt to protect them but the screeching just grew worse only for Morgaine Le Fay to raise her hand and speak clearly above the din "Silencio (Silence)"
The screeching stopped and the numerous eyes focused on her, she repeated a spell "sequor et secura (Seek and Secure)" Morgaine then added in a chillingly cold tone "Now"
"Mother…" Mordred spoke warily "The fact that the golem acted this way could only mean…"
Mordred was barely able to control his aura from running rampant in rage, but he quelled under his mother's sharp gaze. Morgaine turned towards the other two "Now we will fight Black Adam and whoever else is allied with him but if you interfere with me ending them, you will join them. I don't have the patience for so called heroes and their morals."
Zev gave a curt nod, he respected her wishes plus he would rather not have his head blown up by the greatest Dark Lady to ever grace their world. Zatara however was torn but nodded none the less he knew he would react the same way if Zatanna was killed. 'Even thinking about it…'
.
.
'Suppose you were to die today… what would you say? What would you do?' Harry Potter just gazed blankly at the black ceiling as he thought this, 'Do I even believe in life after death?'
"How rare to find a philosophical nine-year old" A voice broke through his contemplations, "While not something I haven't witnessed before but rare."
Harry turned towards the voice to see a tall, handsome teenager with spiky black hair and dark grey eyes. He was dressed as he were on his way for a business meeting, had silver cloth attached to his cufflinks and the only thing out of place in his entire appearance was that he happened to be chewing on chocolate, by seeing the triangular shape Harry guessed it was a 'Tobleron'.
His grey eyes watched Harry curiously "Just look to your side child and let the realization that you're dead sink in. This is the part where a nine year old usually starts crying."
Harry looked to the side and immediately scrambled away in shock. He was staring at himself, his dead body in fact judging by the blank lifeless eyes.
Harry couldn't help but tear up; he rapidly rubbed his eyes with his sleeve. The teenager chuckled "You're brave; most children are though they are quicker to accept the fact. I've lost count of how many adults have screamed that it wasn't their time or it's a mistake. Funny how children act maturely in this instance, though it does sadden me whenever I have to accompany a child to the Hall of Judgment"
"Do you fear what is to happen next child?" He asked Harry who just shook his head and asked "Will I see my parents."
The teenager looked solemn "I will be truthful, I do not know. You may see them, you may not but you needn't worry I don't blame you for wearing the bracelet."
"It wasn't my fault."
"I know child, that is what I just stated." He sighed as he tore open the foil and pulled out another Tobleron piece and handed it to Harry, "One of mankind's best inventions, chocolate. Always cheer you up."
Harry accepted the piece and chewed which was strange in it of itself as he was standing beside his dead body speaking to some strange teenager, "My name is Harry Potter."
"I am aware of whom you are child, I weigh the hearts all that pass through the Hall of Judgment. I am aware of a soul's past, present and future." The teenager formed jackals of smoke that circled Harry and they chased each other "Would you like to learn of your future…"
Harry stared at the grinning teenager and nodded "I won't tell you."
Harry's eyebrow twitched in annoyance "I'm dead aren't I what does it matter if you tell me."
His smirk grew wider "Going by that logic, you're dead what does it matter if you don't know. But it is clear that you would have a difficult path ahead of you, I can't tell you your future as it is against the very law of creation and crafty one at that."
Harry tilted his head curious "What do you mean? What Law?"
"That the future isn't set. The very act of telling you your future can cause you to experience a whole new future because once you know it you can't help but change something, it doesn't matter how small but that very act can cause you to experience new scenario's thus going back to the original future you learnt everything would be worthless." Seeing the confused look on Harry the teen sighed "It's confusing I know but you'll get it one day."
"Can you tell me what will happen to my friend, Zatanna?" Harry asked intimidated by the strange teen that just chewed on a Tobleron triangle and said "A lot of things will happen to her, child. Whether she lives or dies today is yet to be seen. Why do you ask? Your dead remember it is none of your concern."
"She's my friend!"
"So you've had others."
"She was the first friend I had that was my age."
"Again I ask." The teen stared at Harry blankly "So? Noble of you to risk your life for someone you knew only for a day, child but it is still foolish in an immortal's eye." While chewing on another triangle piece he handed Harry another "I know your future remember that's why I stated that it was a good thing that you wore the bracelet, it gave you a swift end. But…if you survived what would you do?"
"I…I…I would protect my friend." Harry spoke almost immediately, the teen grinned revealing lengthened canines that didn't detract any of his handsomeness if anything Harry got the feeling that women would chase the teen like they chase Acelin.
"Admirable, so if I gave you a choice to live right now you'd use my power to protect your friend. Mortals are so intriguing, 2000 years and a god like me can't help my intrigue." The teen spoke chuckling "All my brethren took that intrigue to the next step and used certain mortals as vessels. Most of these were just Pharaohs, godlings we called them. So many of their claims of being descendants of gods were actually true. Out all of my family I was the only one who never took a vessel, speaking from experience my family caused more trouble than they fixed."
"You want me to be your vessel." Harry's tone grew more surprised "You're a god!"
"I'm implying the possibility and yes I am a god." The teen rolled his eyes at Harry's surprise "But if I do so…I would need your permission. You fit the requirements and you wore my bracelet even wielding it's power showing a high amount of compatibility that none before you ever have."
"You're a god why would you need my permission."
"Because humans were created with freewill, it cannot be circumvented by an immortal." The teen further elaborated "By no means does it mean that you have the power of a god at your every whim."
"We'd be more like business partners." Harry said smirking, the teen grinned "Finally someone gets the suit."
Harry still had to ask "Why me…"
The teen chuckled "Like I said before, I know your future and you're the most curious mortal I have ever come across besides most of the other pantheons are getting cocky so it's only fair for Egyptians to jump in as well."
"But still why not just drag me to the Hall of Judgment."
"If I took you to the Hall of Judgment, a child as young as you wouldn't have his heart weighed and would be allowed to move on but about taking you to the Hall, it not that I won't it's more like I can't."
"Huh…what do you mean you can't?" The teen nodded at Harry's query "Yes, a spare soul embedded in your body is acting as an anchor, you are technically dead but you aren't as well. As things stand your soul is in Limbo, while I can easily drag you to the Hall but the long term effects of forcing a soul to move on are quite devastating."
"I'll pass on the devastating effects." Harry blanched; the teen laughed "Knew you would."
"You don't seem surprised about the spare soul in you." The teen god looked confused, Harry answered "My grandmother told me about it and said not to worry. To be honest I kinda forgot about it."
The god deadpanned "Who forgets about an extra soul in their body."
Harry scratched his cheek as he chuckled sheepishly "I guess we're partners then lord."
"While I appreciate politeness, we are partners so call me by my name." Harry nodded and added "Then call me Harry…wait I don't know your name."
"I dropped so many clues yet you couldn't pick up on who I am." The teen sighed "I suppose you can be excused you are a child after all."
The teen crushed the chocolate foil and cover and threw it to his conjured smoke jackals which promptly ate it, dusting off imaginary dust from his sleeve he simply stated his name causing Harry to be pulled into darkness once again.
"Anubis"
Hey guys it's been a while,
Sorry for the delay, I had to find a proper site where I could translate English to Egyptian (Harry using a spell while wearing the bracelet is Egyptian) and also a proper word reverser for Zatara.
Now to respond to reviews, but before I begin I must say I'm disappointed by the response for my previous question. On who was the owner of the lightning, really Shazam…? I don't if many of you know but Shazam is the name of the old wizard who gave Marvel his power. And I'm surprised no one even stated Black Adam. Come on people, Captain Marvel's a hero and Shazam is indisposed at the moment so who else could've used the lightning like that, but the villain Black Adam.
Now on to the review responses,
Orchamus - I didn't decide I'd have Harry evil in the first place he'd be more of an anti-hero but you're right that Zatanna will be joining him.
Sean Malloy-1 - the act of chasing after criminals and detaining or kidnapping them is against the law and the ones who do it are not legal law enforcement officials. Criminals can get off on a technicality such as that.
Akuma-Heika - technically the DC arcs are in the 60's yeah but I'm talking about young justice, new 52 and justice league unlimited and such. No Albus isn't insane, I stated in the chapter one can't use their Patronus at full power, especially people like Dumbledore whose Patronus could've evicted all the Dementors out of Azkaban. Because of the severe limitations on the Patronus and the extremely oppressive aura of Azkaban combined with the Dementors it gives life to their worst nightmares/memories. As you've read the illusions take a life of their own. I added stuff like that to Azkaban to give it a Dead-Space kinda feel y'know.
tavin93 - very valid concerns my friend, but rest assured the no. of the harem will be leveled at 7 or 8 I'm hovering for eight but I'll see further on. And yeah I think I'm gonna enjoy writing the conversation between Balthazar and Veronica.
kroz phantomville - I should be thanking you cause I was stumped as to what I should give Harry to use. But when you said Millennium Puzzle it got the old noggin working and I decided to use themes from the Mummy movies. But I plan on giving Harry a neat skill to use related to Yu-Gi-Oh.
SFBKludge - yeah but I don't think he'd have chosen Harry for it besides he has already chosen Captain Marvel so it would be moot point and cliché to give Harry the power. But nice idea…
Nasira - while I would love to give Harry a snake as a familiar, I'm one of those potter fans who was shattered when Hedwig was killed off. And to the fact that the owl practically dived to protect Harry, but it doesn't mean Harry won't get other much larger pets. _O
Hiei-Uchiha - yes Balthazar will be featured in many chapters but just not yet. He will be like Jason Blood while having contacts in the magical world while still staying separate. Veronica never turned dark; she is still light affiliated but works for Morgaine Le Fay. While I did entertain the idea of Harry being Merlin's heir it won't be possible now as I had scrapped that entire idea, Dave will still be Merlin's Heir. It's much easier…
So tell me what do you think…
