The forest
Harry was feeling tired the bleach in his body still made breathing difficult and tired he needed a nap looking at his guardian and father Severus who saw the signs said "why don't you have a nice nap you'll need the energy!" with that he left.
Soon after Harry fell asleep suddenly he saw the forest and two figures. Running to them he asked "How did I get here!".
Lily smiled softly and said "I told you only when you were ready will you come, Harry you are very young but it's time for you to educate yourself and whereas Hogwarts will teach you everything about wizardry
There are many things Hogwarts won't teach because many don't have the talent for it but you do and this forest will be your training ground. Harry said "I don't understand?"
Lily smiled and sat him down and said "Many people believe that I am muggle born with no magical history which is not true, whereas my blood maybe ordinary, I am Petunias sister but that's it my soul was chosen to bear the essence of magic.
In short I was gifted with rare powers because I was deemed worthy of them but I had to make sure I earned them and kept them,
if I abused them I would lose them I trained hard! Harry interrupted "why didn't you protect yourself!" Lily sighed gently "I would have lost you, being a seer I foresaw two future in one where I lived being the defeated of Voldemort and very unhappy because you die in the backlash of magic and another you living happy a full beautiful life with a home and lover.
I knew I didn't want to live and I know I made the correct choice because I wanted to I love you and I sacrificed myself your you, now hush and let me continue my story and Harry listened
"Magic is a tool used by death eater, voldemort follower's evil people and a great gift for kind people, who never understand that magic lives.
Magic is a living soul that does her duty but once in a while she chooses a pure loving soul into which she gives everything and I was that lucky person I was magic inside and out but I respected magic and trained hard not just my brain and magic but my body and this was transferred to you when you were born magic accepted you and I gave myself to her and I entered the forest which was her home to help undo her guardians biggest mistake.
Voldemort!" something shimmered and a figure walked up to Harry and said "Hello my darling am magic's guardian, Harry's eyes widened as magic g sat and explained "Harry I am Human and I make mistakes for I am not God etc and my biggest one was letting Voldemort into the forest where he stole magic more than his fair share and ran after I confronted him I should have listened to the forest's warning but I was foolish and that has cost many lives.
In short I have to rectify my mistake and apologies to the forest of magic as it's keeper I let her down and I was given you Harry a chance to destroy Voldemort, will you do this for me? Harry looked at magic g and said "I will but why are you called magic g if this forest is magic?" Magic laughed and said "My name is Emerald but everyone calls me magic g because that's what I am.
Harry smiled and said "can I call you Emerald!" you may say's Emerald. Emerald smiled and said "You have to go to Hogwarts now once there we will explain more.
James who had been quiet said "don't worry little bud am here to make sure you have fun as well and not lose your mind with female influence !!" Harry woke up as lily and Emerald began chasing James.
Severus was there and said "it time to get ready and feed Hedwig did you have a good nap? Harry nodded the rest of the day was hectic with travelling and final teaching duties as Severus was the new Potions master and the new DADA teachers was Sirius and Remus.
Albus found out two teachers ended the dada curse which meant he had no more DADA teacher trouble for now. (am not going in detail not very important but if you wanna know review me)
Harry found it strange that for two of his classes he would have his guardians, but it could help as well depending on which way he looked.
Meeting Orion, Alexandria and Aiden he lightly touched there shoulder in affection and said "you guys okay!" Aiden nodded and said "a shame your got grounded the train was brilliant!" Harry snorted and said "it was your idea too charm dad but you got away with it, just be glad I didn't rat you out!" Aiden grinned and hugged him and said "Okay next time I'll do it!" Alady came into the room and said "attention first years am Professor Mcgonagall come onin to the great hall it's time for the sorting!" Going inside they watched the sorting hat come out and sing
You may not think am pretty
I was not made for grander but whit
Student of Hogwarts the past present and the future
I have seen the rise and fall of empires I have seen much
Heed my warning beware the time of strife is at hand
For I am more than a sorting Hat, I see and hear
Beware Unity is needed
The brave Gryffindor must unity with the cautious slytherines
The loyal Hufflepuff with the studious Ravenclaw
The sly slytherines with the intellect of ravenclaw
The precision of Ravenclaws with the speed of Gryffindor
The Nobel Gryffindor with the understanding Hufflepuff
The light of Hufflepuff and the dark of slytherine
With the unity of four can Hogwarts become one.
Then Professor Mcgonagall cam up and called names when Aiden was called he went up smirking as the hat went over his head a voice yelled "SLYTHERINE!"
Aiden whistling went to his table no one but Harry so him take a quick glance as his father to assure himself he was happy, Sirius beamed at him in pride.
As Alexandria went up she sat down after a minute "Ravenclaw!" was said Harry whistled studious and witty the ravenclaws won't know what hit them, they'd hate or love her only time would tell!"
As his name came up a hush feel and people whispered Harry Potter the Harry Potter let's have a look!" The hat went onto his head and Harry heard "huum a studious mind, a sneaky attitude a brave character and loyalty all traits of Hogwarts," Harry though "hurry up ya slimey git am starving!"
The hat grinned "a mouth as well I like you Harry you will go far you have a potential, Harry Potter heed my advice bring about House unity, for a see you will have connections with all the houses and you are best able to bring this unity that is so needed that is where you belong.
I will sort you last my child I need time to think!" Harry removed the hat as Dumbledore came up worried after a quick conversation Harry went back to his place Orion looked at him concerned and said "what happened!" Harry told him gently what happened.
After which Orion's name came up and put the hat and the hat pronounced Hufflepuff. Harry looked around feeling odd when Blaze Zabine was sorted his name was called again and then he put the hat back on.
Hello again Harry Potter take this necklace it will help you in time of need remember these words, Unity understanding ends wars. Harry felt something on his neck and a strange sense of it belonging to him with that the hat opened his mouth and yelled Gryffindor.
Taking of the hat he sow Dumbledore who looked pale and said "the necklace may I see it?! Suddenly the hat leaped on to Albus Dumbledores head and whispered so that Harry could hear
"Nooooo it's his don't mess with the motion that have been placed for decades. Touch it and Hogwarts will crumble!! "With that Albus let Harry go.
Harry went amused but nervous he took his seat silently and watched everyone gaping at him except a red head that was sitting next to him but he
seemed fixated on the plate and when they were filled he began eating, Harry had never seen someone eat so much.
The red head after eating turned to him said "you gonna eat that?" Harry who had hardly eaten anything nodded and said "It's on my plate I intent to, and you are?
He smiled and said "Ron Weasley then burped and said "excuse me am famished, Harry can I call you that?
Harry nodded as Ron turned and eat after a while Ron said "how come your not eating?" Harry said sarcastically "who can with you pigging out next to him or her!"
Ron grinned "soossh gulping Sorry bad habit, and then grinned if you think this is gross you haven't seen the way I eat breakfast!"
Harry raised his eyebrow and said "Note to self stay away from human bottomless stomach!"
Ron then said "Your Harry Potter ain't you?" Harry replied sarcastically "No am Fred Flinstone!" "No waaaay can I see dino I love that dinosaur where is he?
Harry gaped at him and said "whatever!" and continued "ain't you wizard born how do you know about the Flintstone's!"
Ron said "my dad loved muggle stuff and we watch a bit of TV! Harry nodded impressed and they began talking and in Harry's case eating his dinner until they heard
"Attention students, now that we have eaten let me introduce you to our new teachers, Professor Severous Snape Potions master and will be head of slytherine house because of his understanding qualities, the students applauded,
Professor Lupin our Defense against the dark arts teacher to warn you all Professor Lupin is a harmless wearwolf and procedures for wolfsbane and quiet rooms outside Hogwarts have been provided for him,
and a teacher who will take over his classes during his transformation which is Professor Sirius Black, and head of Black industries and Auror who will also act as extra security at Hogwarts.
These two professors will take DADA together, now off you trot; prefects please make sure the first years are properly guided to their rooms.
With that everyone went to their rooms and Harry seeing his bed feeling hopeful and more so when he sow Ron whisper "please don't mind but can we team up tomorrow I don't wanna face my first day alone what if I make a mistake!"
Harry interrupted "Sure" Ron smiled happily "thanks for not laughing" Ron went to sleep
Harry's heart filled with a light sensation one gets when they met a friend and was glad he had someone for tomorrow he fell asleep hoping for answers to many questions about the forest and anxious about his first day at Hogwarts.
