The Secret of The TESTER Wand

Chapter 11

A rush of magic flowed through Harry's body. He knew he had messed up the moment he placed the Slytherin ring on his finger.

But the feeling he was experiencing from the rings right now was worth it.

Every fibre of his body was on fire and at the same time felt cool and alive.

Harry knew this was not normal, but with it being MAGIC, he allowed the feeling to envelope him fully, imagining it to be like what it would feel like if your mother hugged you.

Standing here, or was he floating? Not really sure which it was, Harry turned his head to have a look around him.

All he saw was space, white clean space of nothing. In every direction he looked, he saw white nothingness.

Harry decided to close his eyes as the pure white around him actually hurt his eyes a little.

Giving up on seeing anything, Harry tried to listen for something.

Again he was met with nothing. The silence around him was absolute and all he finally managed to hear was his own breathing and heartbeat.

Harry slowly ran through all his senses and finally settled on taste.

He could taste cinnamon and honey in the air. Almost like when aunt Petunia made pancakes that one time and DROWNED the light pastry in warmed up butter, cinnamon and honey.

Mouth-watering images flashed behind his closed eyelids and Harry softly moaned for a small taste.

But it was not meant to be. Harry felt the feeling of floating in a direction, and seeing as it was in front of him, he decided it was forward.

Floating for a while led Harry to experience yet another sensation.

The smell of cinnamon and honey slowly faded and was replaced by the sound of water flowing. It reminded Harry of the sound he heard when they passed the waterfall on the way to his vaults.

It sounded like the part where the water was flowing over rocks and into a small pool.

Floating closer to the sound, Harry finally opened his eyes to see where he was, but he saw nothing. He could only hear the sound.

Deciding to forego the effort of trying to explain it all, Harry simply closed his eyes again and relaxed to the sound of the water.

He imagined fish of beautiful colours, swimming in the pool and giggled to himself when he imagined a mermaid with long blue hair sitting on the rocks by the pool.

Harry imagined her to have the greenest eyes he could think of and the most beautiful rainbow coloured tail.

She was flipping her tail through the water, causing ripples to float to the other side of the pool, and allowed the fish inside the pool to jump over the small ripples.

Harry was truly enjoying this and relaxed even more into the dreamscape.

Soon Harry was floating again and this time he could feel the atmosphere change around him. It was not cold, but it also wasn't warm. He could feel a soft cool breeze blow through his hair from behind him and a warmer breeze from the front to his face.

Harry imagined it felt like standing in front of an open window, and opened his eyes again to see where he was.

This time Harry was amazed to see the dragons from the vaults around him.

ALPHA: Ah, our young friend has found the dream scape! Come closer sisters, we have to celebrate his journey here and make true on our oaths to teach the next dreamer of his role in society.

HARRY: Hello again great guardian and thank you for the great welcome! But I will have to ask you to please explain what you are talking about?

ALPHA: Ah young one, we are the guardians of so much more than just GOBLIN vaults. We stand guard through all the realms. We guard gateways through time and monitor the use of OUR airways. You young man is what we call a DREAMER. Through your imagination, you can shape a reality and then make it a reality.

You were born with this gift, but by accepting the GRIFFYNDOR and SLYTHERIN rings, you sealed your place in our realities.

Your father left you the CLOAK of INVISIBILITY and the ring of SLYTHERIN gave you the STONE of RESURRECTION.

There is one more you will collect once you step into the Wizarding world.

The TESTER WAND, it is the final stage of being a DREAMER.

But enough of what is to be, let us begin with what is now.

And with that the dragons circled around Harry and connected themselves head to tail. Harry stayed in the middle and simply allowed them to do what they needed. He was just too amazed with everything to do anything about it.

Soon images and sounds filled his mind and Harry tried to fight against it, but Alpha told him to relax and follow the information.

Harry pulled himself into a sitting position with his legs crossed before him and followed the information in his mind.

Images of wand movements flashed a few seconds apart and were followed with a word, written and spoken.

HARRY: Why are all the words in that strange language? I mean, why can't I just say it in English and understand everything I am saying?

Or for that matter, why do I have to say anything at all? Won't it be easier to confuse my enemy if he had no idea what I sent his way?

ALPHA: Truly a dreamer if you already seek ways to change your surroundings to fit your needs. It is amazing to hear you rationalize the questions. The answer to them all is YES.

Harry waited a little for her to finish the answer, but soon found that she was not going to elaborate on it any further.

So the answer is YES… Does that mean that he can do whatever he wanted with his magic?

The ALPHA dragon hissed her approval of his conclusion and nodded for the other dragons to leave, their roles in teaching Harry was now complete.

HARRY: Will I see you again, here, in my dreamscape?

ALPHA: Harry, we ARE your dream scape; we survive through your imagination and creations. Your MAGIC allows us to keep balance in the universe. We are but a single thought away.

Harry nodded his head in understanding and watched as the image of ALPHA dragon floated away, leaving behind the white nothingness again, causing him to close his eyes again.
