Thank you for review the hope you keep up with it. So hears the 7 chapter. Sorry it took so long I was reading other stories. Here you go then.
Chapter 7: Fighting on all odds
Harry sat lazily on the floor, hearing thunder; rain drizzling down the skylight. The room was pitch black until lighting flashed down at his still body. His body suddenly shook by the cold air washing over him ever so lightly. He never stopped looking strait ahead. Dull green eyes; a glow lingered in his room. Harry took a shaky breathe, letting his eyes trail off to the dark cloudy sky. Moving only his hand, he examined it carefully in front of him. Seeing every little details of his shaking hand. Trying to see it there was something wrong.
'What's inside of me that Sole put in?' Harry thought so deeply.
Harry put his hand down slowly, seeing if something would happen when he took his eyes off of it. Putting it to his side he cleared his throat. Grunting, Harry got up from the floor and the brushed off invisible dust with his hands. Lighting struck the air outside, letting Harry see a flash of silver that was sailing towards his head.
Seeing this, he quickly ducked, hearing a swishing noise then hearing a thud as the object dug in the wall behind him. Looking up, he stood tall and firm to see a hooded figure in the room holding a dagger in one in the hand.
"Well, I see you've learn a lot for a your age, but still I see weakness." the figure walked a little closer until he was 2 feet from him.
Harry grunted, not really caring about this person even though he knew who that person was. "What fo you want, Cole? So bored you have to come here and bother me?" Harry looked at Cole in the eyes. Brown and Green met.
A giggle noise fused with the roar of thunder, interrupting their silent talk. "Aww, Blitz, no time, no see. Do you like this wonderful day?" There was a click of the lights turning on. Harry hissed at the bright light blinding him for a second before he could see the light up the room. "Did I hurt you? My poor, poor Blitz. What a shame..." then she was cut off by Cole harsh words.
"Mai, I dare say that you are in no position to coo someone in your stats." Mai ignored him when he was done his talking, looking back at Harry only to find him a inch away from her. She gasped and back a step. Then she smiled.
"It looks like someone learned a few tricks in there book of talent you call a brain. How cute. What else do you know?" Mai giggled again, but stopped when Harry face had anger written all over it.
"I suggest you don't be so cocky. I so despise cockiness. Don't you?" Harry green eyes flashed black, but no one noticed.
"Fair enough. I dare say you haven't the slightest talent to really defeat me, but... I have a proposal to make for you. I challenge you into a duel toady and to smother, how should I say, my flames of cockiness. Don't you think?" Mai said this while her finger twirl into Harry black locks. Harry moved his head to the side with revulsion.
"I advise you to take your hand out my hair. And yes I accept, on one condition. You stay away from me until the battle. Got it." Harry couldn't place what sound it was that was coming out of Mai's mouth. Like a groan or a grunt.
"You are such a tease. You know that? Alright, I accept your request. For know. I'm sorry, but I can't get away from you so long. It makes me itch for some love'n." To make her point she turn Harry's head and giving him a passionate kiss on the lips. Letting go ever so quickly she walked out with a smile on her face.
Harry stood there shock as ever. Still looking at the spot where Mai was just standing. Harry turned around to Cole to see him trying so hard not to laugh and roll on the floor. "Did you just see that or Mai's getting more insane then I like to hope?"
"Oh, now you see me. For a minute there I thought I was invisible. Don't worry. What Mai did is a sign that she likes you." couldn't hold it for long, Cole bursted out laughing, and holding his stomach. "Like I said, don't worry kid. Just be happy that she wasn't happy."
"You mean angry right? You mean angry? If she's happy she wouldn't of did what she did. Right?" Harry eyes followed Cole's movement as he walked out Harry's room. "Right?"
"Let just say that Mai likes to do opposite day, everyday." then Cole left, laughing even more, but before the door closed Harry could hear Cole's voice rang out in the hallway. "I am so telling the rest of the Captains about this." then hearing nothing, but his thoughts of confusion and anger.
"Sirius, I think we should rest. We've been walking since daybreak. Let's have a break and then we can..." Remus was cut off but Sirius angrily walking up the hill, grumbling as he stomped hard on the cold snowy ground.
"We can't just stop now. If we do then we might miss Harry. We can't just give up. We have to..." then he was cut off by Remus tired voice.
"Who said we're giving up? If we go on like this I don't think we are going to make it. We're almost running out supplies and then what? Transfigure snow into food? Sorry, but I don't think it's going to work. And besides, we don't even know where Harry is." Remus moved to the side to make room for Sirius. "Here, sit." Sirius stopped in his track where the road curved right and he was at the edge.
"Maybe your right. I just can't think how this happened. One minute Harry sleeping in a old room in the headquarters and now, his off somewhere we don't even know. He could be on another plant, universe and we wouldn't even know it."
Sirius was about to walk back where Remus sat, but suddenly there was cracking noises. Sirius looked down to see definite line of cracks forming in front of his feet. Sirius was about to move, but the platform he was on caved under him. Remus saw this, racing towards Sirius with his wand out the spell forming in his lips. Remus stopped at the broken edge to see Sirius holding on ice and on the side of the mountain.
"Sirius hold one." Remus aimed down at Sirius body.
"Easy for you to say." Sirius said, slowly slipping.
" Wingardium Leviosa!" Remus felt a little tug at his wand as Sirius was pulled up from the side of the mountain. Feeling Sirius flailing around Remus grunted at the weight. "Stop moving Sirius. If you keep up your going to make me drop you."
Sirius stopped moving when he heard Remus. "You wouldn't."
"Try me. It's hard when someone is moving while they have the spell on them. That's why we used objects when we where younger." Remus explained. Finally hoisting Sirius up from the edge they let out a sigh of relief.
"Note to self: don't walk on edge of mountains, cliffs, or anything that you can't see the bottom of." Sirius murmured. Remus heard, laughing softly as Sirius said it wasn't funny.
"Come on. Let's go find Harry." Remus got up and grabbed Sirius's hand pulling him up from the cold ground. When they turned around to startup the mountain they saw something or should they say someone in front of them.
A black figure, cloaked in shadow. It's yellow eyes where the only things that had and define features. Sirius was the first to speak. "Who are you?"
when the figured spoke it's voice hung in the air, sweet, but like an angry demon waiting for a prey to feed on. "I am someone that can help you on your quest to find the wielder." the figure waited, seeming that the unknown person was done.
"What do you me? What wielder?" Remus asked wondering if the person ro thing was talking about the same person that they were looking for.
"The wielder to claim this." the figure cloak opened to find a hand, but not any hand and dragon like hand. Blue and green scales molded, making it look like it was meant for the sea. Instead of nails the person had black claws. Sharp and shining in the afternoon sun and in that hand was a green jewel. Shining more then the figures scales and claws. It reminded then of Harry's emerald eyes. "This will take you to what you seek. Just take it and you will find that person." the figure reached out it's dragon hand in front of Remus and Sirius.
"How do we know that we can trust you?" Sirius blurted.
"You don't." the person simply said.
Sirius looked back Remus for any suggestions only to get the same result of him looking back at Sirius. They both shrugged their shoulders and nodded their heads before walking up to the person, but Remus stopped looking into the dark hood of a stranger.
"Before we go. What's your name?"
Feeling that it smiled, it gave one word before Remus touched the emerald gem. "Monica." then their surroundings swirled around only seeing wisp of air gathering towards them. There body feeling as they where out of breathe, but that feeling came to a subsiding. Remus and Sirius opened their eyes and not know they were closed, but forgotten it quickly. As the wisping of the air long gone and their surroundings cleared as day light, they saw a beautiful castle in front of them. Gasping, they took a step back to look at more of it's beauty.
The place looked like it rain. The grass had the right shades of green, like a perfectionist made it by paint as the wind wept it in the light breeze. The grounds around the castle was spectacular. As trees laid in the right places, dripping water drops, and a round lake sparkled in the bright sun. Clear of any bacteria or mold, seeing the bottom and colorful fishes of all sides swimming side to side like a snake in wet grass. Birds chirped, seeming like they were singing their own melody. But the castle, the castle was magnificent. The castle's bricks looked new and the window shined as they looked polished from top to bottom, leaving no dust behind. Seeing as the sun made the glass shine like a diamond. Four towers stretched each corner of the castle, but behind it looked like there was a giant dome, looking like it was from the Greece.
Remus tugged Sirius's arm roughly forward, seeing him fall behind Remus, but Remus didn't let go, so he wouldn't fall with him. Dragging him on the green grass Remus told Sirius to stop play around. Sirius looked up from Remus when he stopped, got up, dusting dirt from his heavy cloths. Giving Remus a glare, Sirius walked, following Remus to the castle entrance. Taking about five minutes they stopped at the large oak wooden door.
"So, you think we're going to find Harry here, eh?" Sirius asked Remus.
"I don't know, but I hope so. If not I think we should just take a rest here and asked if they know where he is." Remus responded, looking up and down the door.
"Well, that's a good plan. I was thinking we could bust in there, find Harry, if not, get answers , if not that, who's ever there, they can get the hard way..."
"Hard way of what? We don't even know where we are. They can be dark wizards in there and we can get shot by millions of spells and curses and what? You're going to shrug it off and tell them where Harry is? I really think that's the stupidest plan I have ever heard of, besides that plan you had back then about running in the old ruin house to see if there were any more death eaters in it, making me the one to do it and guess what, they were." Remus said this, his glare even more fiercer.
"You. Will. Not. Let. That. Go will you?" Sirius said shaking his head.
"Let's just go. The sooner we find Harry, the sooner we can go." Remus said, pushing the door opened as it creaked loudly in the air. Letting them in with almost most opened arms.
Harry walked back at his favorite and only sofa, feeling a little happier then he was before. Looking up from his skylight he saw the rain stopped without him knowing it. 'Strange.' Harry thought. Harry was about to lay down on his sofa when he saw a not of the arm of it. Picking it up he flipped it back and forth for a name, but no one's name touched the front or back of the envelope. Opening it he read it silently. His face changing to confused, to annoyance. Putting it down, Harry sighed, pushing his hair back, making it protest back by being even messier then it was, before throwing it on the sofa, walking out of his room with a some what of a down feeling.
Slowly the note fell on the sofa, right side up it said:
Dear Blitz,
Professor wants to meet you after the duel with Captain Mai. Do not forget or you will be punished. Another note, do not leave this castle. Professor knows all. So I suggest you don't upset my Professor.
Signed by Professor's Guardian,

Harry Grumbled around the hall until he bumped into Flower. "Sorry Flower, didn't see you."
Flower smiled at him before saying anything. "Oh, now you calmed down? Well, that's great, but don't scary me like that."
"Scare? You? I scared you?" Harry looked down at the floor not saying anything else, worrying Flower deeply.
"Harry? Are you..."
"What do you think?" Harry asked, his head shot up so quickly that Flower jumped. "When I became different; changed when I came back? Are you sure this mark; this, this curse that Sole put on me actually powerful? Powerful that..."
"Harry, to tell you the truth I really don't know. If I knew what was going on with you then I could probably help you..." Then she trailed off for a second. "Maybe you should concentrate on the duel first then this. One step at a time. Okay?" Flower looked at Harry for a good answer.
"Yeah. Thanks Flower. For everything." Harry said with a smile that day.
"Your welcome. I should go and get a seat. You know how crowded it is over there."
"Yeah, see around." Harry said, seeing Flower walking the opposite way. Harry took a deep breathe, then walked again in the halls. Harry walked thinking back on Mai. His thoughts on her the first time he met her wasn't good. Remembering how he got here made him laugh a little.
Flashback
Harry sighed as he put his trunk in the back of the car. Slamming it, Uncle Vernon snared at Harry and saying don't do it a again before getting in the car and thought in his mind quickly that he was happy that Hedwig was flying to the Dursley's house. Harry stopped himself from rolling his eyes remembering that Uncle Vernon angry face. He walked sluggishly into the car, closing the door quiet as possible without his uncle getting even more angrier which was a success, then putting on his seat belt.
Harry heard his Uncle grumble and mumble about stupid freaks and trying to control his and his families life, then hearing the turn and the roar of the car starting. Not hearing Uncle's low talking about Harry's friends, his thoughts raced near the end of school year. Going to the Ministry of Magic to find it no Sirius and no Voldemort. Remembering how he got his friends hurt, making the Order come rescue them, just to get Sirius, Harry's godfather, killed. Harry shut his eyes tight, roughly throwing back the memory to the back of his head.
'Don't think about it. It's over. Just don't think about it.' Harry chanted those words, but every word he says the memory popped all of a sudden in front of his mind. Sighing miserably, Harry shed a tear, just letting the memory flush his mind. Sniffing softly, so Uncle Vernon couldn't hear, he looked to his side of the window which was the lift he looked to see it was raining, dark and the head light s flashed as the car sped pass them.
Thinking that the world will keep on going, not letting anything stop it in it's track. Harry stopped looking out the window and try to see what time it was. Try, being the key word. Uncle Vernon was so big he could see the time pass his Uncle fat. Sighing he again Harry put his elbow on the door no really looking at anything.
But any thoughts Harry was about to think had to wait as Vernon swerved right. Harry yelp in surprise, trying to hold on to something, but failing miserably. The car went off the road with a squeak into a ditch making it tip over, but when the car hit the ditch the impact shattered the windows. Then, with a final squeak, it stopped.
In a few minutes it was silent. Only for the rain falling down. Harry slowly opened his eyes only to groan in pain. 'What the heck hit me? A hippogriff?' Harry groan again and holding his head. For a few minutes it was like this until his head wasn't spinning. But he still couldn't see because his glasses weren't on him.
"Great. Just great. This was not how I wanted my summer to end." Harry squinted, trying to looking around. Feeling lightheaded he guessed that he was upside down. Harry winced as a shot of pain went soaring up and down his right arm as he tried to find the seat belt. Hearing the click of the seat belt's release Harry roughly fell down the rest of the way. Harry closed his eyes in pain as he hit his head on the roof of the car.
Gasping, his mind at ease and not tight , like someone stuffed his head with weights. Feeling the back of his head he could feeling sticky substance. Pulling his hand in front of him he could barely see what it was, so dreading of what he was about to do he licked it, and his thoughts matched what it was. Harry spat it out. Blood. The copper taste still lingered in his mouth.
For a minute or so he stay like that, getting his baring strait. Taking a deep breathe Harry slowly got up, but dropped down. Swearing, his thoughts were back at his right arm. Turning to the side he felt a object graze his hair. He picked it up and thanking Merlin as he put on his glasses. Looking threw them they where a little scratched up, but could still see in them.
But suddenly the car rattle and quaked. Lifting up in the air, Harry stopped in his track. But the car moan and groan in protest before It exploded. Not like a regular one. Like someone took the car piece by piece. Harry seeing this with his own eyes saw every piece floating for a second, then reattached it, leaving Harry floating in the air. Looking in front of him he could see a shadowy figure holding it's hand up. It's hand aiming at him. Then their hand moved lift in a swift motion.
Harry was confused until he too went the way the dark figure moved their hand, making him roughly hit a tree with a hiss. Harry was about to slip onto the ground , but he was pushed back up by the figure. Wincing again, Harry's head wound sting even more.
"I finally have you alone. Aw did I hurt you? To bad. Oh wait I didn't tell you my name. The names Mai." A women voice called out. Her movements were cat like and her lift hand caressed Harry's cheek. With disgust Harry tried to move his head away from her touch. Harry opened his eyes looking back at the dark figure. "Know hold still and every things going to be alright." Before the Mai could do anything Harry had strength to kick her in the stomach.
Doubling over she let go with a grunt of pain. Harry looked at her for a second before running deeper in to a near by forest. Not looking back.
Blitz... Blitz...
Flashback ended
"Blitz? Can you hear me?" Harry shook his head, shaking off the memory. Looking left to the voice. Standing there was Mai. Her hand on her right hip and a worried face he could see from her. "Are you alright? Do you what a kiss again to make you feel better?" Mai smiled coming closer towards him. She stopped close enough for Harry's hand to reach Mai.
"What? What do you want? Didn't I say don't come to me before the duel?" Harry looked at her, but not really at her per say because she came closer and closer to him with out knowing. When noticed that Mai was close to him that he can smell her strawberry and cream perfume he stepped back, but stopped as the wall prevented him to go back any further.
"And didn't I say that I can't make promises. That your to hot to go away from." she said this taking the distance away from both of them. She was close now that Harry can smell her fruity breathe warming his lips.
"Mai, I really don't.." but didn't finished it because Mai captured Harry lips. Moaning, Mai took his hair into her hands, and breathing sharply threw her nostrils.
But Harry's eyes widen in shock. Then something inside of Harry that make him want to be disgusted of himself. He like it. Trying to keep his mind focus he was about to push her off her until his eyes trailed behind her. To figures stood there wide eyes and all. Words was spoken, then there was a flash of light coming towards them. Knowing that Mai isn't dump enough to drop down by a spell. Right before it would hit Mai, Mai arm let go of Harry's hair and grabbed the red light in her palm, scowling at the person who did it.
Harry looked at the two people and he couldn't believe who it was. With a shaky voice Harry spoke up. "Sirius? Remus? How? How did you get here?" they didn't answered as they too where shocked at how Mai caught the spell. A stupify spell to be exact. Harry was about to ask again when he saw Mai aiming for them. Having a quick answer he moved in front of her facing her. "Mai don't. I can handle it. Okay?" Harry said this holding the red ball in her hand and absorbing it. "Don't hurt them." Mai took her eyes off of the two and looked into Harry's eyes, then smiled.
"I tell you what... I let them go. And not going to hurt them. In exchange for to..." she said this low so only Harry can here it . Harry face turned to a shock. Looking like she was crazy. Harry looked back for a second before sighing, then nodding. Mai giggled then walked off swaying her hips side to side.
Harry turned around to see the shocking faces of his godfather and somewhat uncle. Thinking inside his head he sighed and then moaned in anger. 'I can't believe this is happening to me. My life can't even be abnormal, no, it has to be over the top. What am I going to do?'
