Chapter 9

"I did" remus answered "but umm... Why is there a half-naked woman on your bed?"

Harry instantly turned beet red and almost shouted "it isn't what it looks like."

"Ok, ok" Remus said smiling "but that doesn't explain why she is on your bed... who is she anyways."

"Errr... umm... wait a second and I'll tell you inside" Harry said before walking through the door and closing it behind him.

The door had barely closed before Remus could hear some strange noices, and then Harry began too shout "argh, no down, please get off girl, oh.. not you too will you please get of me for a minute, thanks, and you will you get decent" then Remus heard another, strangely familiar voice say "but wont it?.." and Harry answer "no they will work just as well if you cover them up,you know that and why didn't you anyways I told you that I would bring Remus in if he was my guard" "I bet on Snape remember" the familiar voice answered.

The door opened but before Harry could let Remus in Remus asked "three Harry?"

"Argh... just get in" Harry said and went through the door and Remus followed.

As soon as they were through the door the two birds that were sitting on the windowsill flew and perced on his shoulders, then the snowy owl that Remus knew was Hedwig, started rubing the top of her head to his chin affectionately, while the other bird that Remus didn't know and looked like a very small eagle, started to try to groom his hair and the girl on Harry's bed was laughing and still her voice sounded familiar.

"Ok" Remus said as he sat down in the only chair in the room "explain."

"Remus did you take ancient runes" Harry asked.

"Yes" Remus answered "I was the only one of the Maurderers who did."

"You still have the stone I gave you before" Harry asked, when Remus noded he said "look at it"

Remus inspected the stone and saw some small runes on it "hmm... Wunjo, Ansuz and Eihwas, set in stone, for defence?... Ah I've got it, is this your blood" he asked Harry

Harry noded once.

"This is too check trustworthiness torwards you?" Remus half stated half asked.

Harry noded again.

"Where did you get this?" Remus asked "I mean, I know it's legal but it must have cost a bloody fortune.

Harry shrugged and said "I made it."

Remus gaped and said "but... But this is quite advanced Runemagic... And you don't even take runes."

There was a snort from the bed "if you think you're surprised you should have seen my face when he made a funtional ward, within 10 minutes from reading his first rune."

"What!" Remus shouted "that is impossible... And who the hell are you?" he asked the woman on the bed.

"Oh" Harry said "allow me the introduction, Remus Lupin this is Nymphadora Tonks, Nymphadora Tonks, Remus Lupin"

M1 Motorway

Hermione was getting anxious to meet her friend, she had never seen how Harry's home life was, was it as bad as he had said? Was it worse? He was after all famous for his understatements, well he was more famous for his scar but the understatements were close second, followed up by Quiddich.

She had managed to convince her Dad to drive her to Privet Drive, but she wasn't sure what she was going to do when she got there, should she knock and ask the Dursleys to meet Harry or should she try too get his attention from outside it couldn't be so hard to find out wich window was his, the wall around it should be darmaged since the second year when the twinns ripped the bars of his window, and if she could find his window then she could throw a stone at the it, yes she'd do that.

Albus Dumbledores office, Hogwarts

Dumbledore was preparing for the trial, he had been trying to decide wich he should represent, Harry or Kingsley when a owl had dropped of a message that said that a Goblin named Graknic Griphook would be representing Harry, the name of the Goblin sounded all too familiar.

So he would be representing Kingsley.

The bad thing was that by doing that he would most certainly drive the boy further away, he needed that boy, he wanted to know what the power the darklord knows not is, he wanted too be able to replicate it.

With so many things on his mind, he never thought of the blood oaths the Order members were made make.

The smallest room, Nr. 12 Privet Drive, Surrey

"Oh" Harry said "allow me the introduction, Remus Lupin this is Nymphadora Tonks, Nymphadora Tonks, Remus Lupin."

"Umm... Hi Remie" Tonks said trying, and failing too break the tension.

"T... Tonks?"

"Yes Remus, it's Me" Tonks answered.

"Tonks, What happened? Why are you here? Do you know who the Silvered Phantom is?" Remus rambled.

Harry burst out laughing "the silvered what."

"Oh" Remus said "didn't you know, the day of the reading there was a deatheater attack on Diagon Alley but it was stopped by one man, he was in a silver cloak with a charm too hide his face."

"Another bloody title, atleast I'm not The-Bloody-Boy-Who-Destroyed-Diagon-Alley-Single-Handedly" Harry mutered.

Tonks laughed but Remus was compleatly gobsmacked.

"Y-you are the Silvered Phantom?" Remus asked "b-but how? Why when what..." he rambled on.

"I..."Harry began but the two birds nested on his shoulders gave a screech and flew out the window.

"O...K" Harry said slowly in confusion "what just happened."

As he finished the last word the birds came back in and Hedwig sat on the bed post and Thor droped a rat on Tonks lap and sat on the opposite bedpost.

Tonks, being the lady she was began screaming the house down.

The high sound seemed too frighten the rat and it turned around and began runing but saw Hedwig and started backing slowly away, it's paw glittered in the light...

'Wait' Harry thought 'rats don't glitter.'

"Stun it" Harry shouted but Remus having recognised the rat for what it was, was a step ahead of him and "Stupefy."

"Here put him in this" Harry said as he emptied a potions-ingredients-jar on the floor.

Harry almost ran ower too his desk as much as you can run two steps, picked up his bloodquill and began drawing a ward circle on a pice of parcment "Uruz,Nauthiz,Perthro,Algiz" Harry hissed throug the pain in his hand and took the jar now containing the rat and put it in the middle of the circle, there was a bright flash of red light that left everyone half-blind.

The only thing breaking the silence was harry muttering too him self "remember: not get this exited while doing Rune magic again."

Street outside Nr.12 Privet Drive

Hermione had just arrived when one window in the house flashed brightly, she didn't know what too think so she forgot too show any precaution and ran straight through the front door.

When she was inside the house she ran straight into Mrs.Dursley, Hermione was frightened for a second but Petuina said "ahh you must be a friend of my Duddykins, he's in his room, up the stairs second door on the right."

Hermione put a fake smile on her face and went up the stairs and found the doors with many locks on and opened it, inside she found a unknown woman on the bed, Professor Lupin laying on the floor stuned in shoock and harry laying by the desk, on the desk sat a jar with a familiar rat inside.

There was a shocked silence for few seconds then Harry said "remember: not get this exited while doing Rune magic again."

Hermione was the first one too speak up "Rune magic, Harry you can't use Rune magic, you dont even take the class."

"Hermione" Harry said "ever heard of knocking?"

Hermione opened her mouth too ansver.

"Never mind" Harry cut her off "Remus do you still have that stone?"

Remus noded and passed him the stone.

Harry examined it for a while before noding and passing it too Hermione, the stone turned blue immediately.

Harry noded and Remus asked "What was this about Rune magic?"

Harry got embaresed and said "Well... um... I'm the first Rune Master in a thousand years"

Later Harry would wish he had a camera, just this once in his life, just too get the look on their faces on film.


Here it is, at last. Wait a minute while I get the list of excuses...
1. Well, I got a job, that has too count for something.
2. When I started this chapter I had no idea what I was going too have in it.
3. I had a horribe case of Plottbunny's, resulting in my new story and another one that I have too do a little research on before I can write it.

Soooooo... Am I forgiven? Somehow I doubt it, it could be all the torch-wielding lunatics chasing me but who cares.

So Reviews:
Vayne: That has too be the most wonderful thing anyone has ever said to me. :') Sob.
Jabarber69: Thanks for the sugestion.
gabriel: No, my completly unpolitical brain does.
Alphamec: I have nothing aginst Dumbledore, I don't belive him evil in canon but this isn't canon is it? I just like the twist of having Dumly evil, but he's a ok guy.

There I hope the next chapter will be out sooner, much sooner.
