Harry Potter and the Animagi Transformation

Chapter 11: To The Past



Half the school year passed. Gryffindor won every Quidditch match and was leading the House Cup by 500 points. It was originally 2,000 but with the unwanted help of Professor Snape, 1,500 were lost.

No more visits were made and it did not seem as if Voldemort was in full strength yet, so Harry wasn't worried. Which was what gave him a shock when he got up one morning, and when he turned the corridor to go to the Great Hall and was confronted by his ancestors. All five spoke in one voice.

"Get Ron, Hermione, and Ginny and arrive here in ten minutes. Don't worry; no one will be able to see us or you four coming here."

Harry ran to get the aforementioned. Ron and Hermione were easy to get because Ron already knew about his being the heir and he persuaded Hermione to come with him. Ginny was harder to persuade because she didn't believe the bit about his multiple animagi forms. Her finally had to show her about it before she consented.

When he arrived with Ron, Hermione, and Ginny, he saw them (his ancestors) and stated, "Now what?"

It didn't come out in English, however. Instead, it sounded exactly like the ancestor's speech: a combination of English, Parseltongue, Phoenix song, badger, ravens, and eagles. (Let's just all call that language Mepbep (Stupid, I know.))

Harry thought that he was speaking English but the rest knew that he was not. Their gasps told him otherwise. He looked at his ancestors for an answer and he heard them say that he could talk to any animal if he wanted and also that he knew every language in the world.

As they said that, he could feel his brain getting lots of knowledge of old, ancient magic.

Ron, Hermione, and Ginny gasped when they saw a golden light surround Harry. When it disappeared, Harry had changed a whole lot. His already tall frame of 5'8" had grown even taller. He was now 6'3", five inches taller than Ron. His hair now had highlights of blue, green, scarlet, yellow, gold, and silver. The bones on his face were more prominent. His nose had a slight upturn to it and his jawbone was much firmer. His eyes were a brighter shade of emerald green. All in all, he was very attractive and handsome.

Harry grinned at their stupefied expressions. Ginny was the first to respond.

"Oh my God. Great Merlin, what happened to you? You look so different now."

Harry smiled at her before assuming a serious expression.

"This is going to be a lot to take in for some of you. By the end of my explanation, all of you will know something new. I am the heir of Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Merlin. Don't look so surprised, Hermione. Now listen all of you. There was a prophecy made by Professor Trelawney at the start of the term. This is how it goes:

"The Hope and Trust will go back four times. The Fox and the Owl will accompany them once. The rest is up to the Basilisk. What will be, will be. The Dark Lord no longer reigns."

I was conversing with my ancestors as you might have collected just by looking at how I was speaking a moment ago. I have just received all knowledge of everything that all my ancestors knew; and that is everything about magic. But I have many weaknesses and that makes me human as anyone else. I don't know why I look like this but I know that this is not how I will look like when I am an adult. I will probably be even taller."

" That's a relief to me Harry, knowing that you're going to be so tall," Hermione said sarcastically.

"As I was SAYING, I know what the prophecy means and why we're here. All four of us are involved in the prophecy.

'The Hope and Trust will go back four times.'

The Hope- that's me, hope of the wizarding world. The Trust- that's you Ginny: Phoenixes are known for their immense trust and loyalty. Both of us are going back in time four times.

'The Fox and the Owl will accompany them once. The rest is up to the Basilisk." Ron the Fox and Hermione the Owl will come with us only once. Basilisk means the king of the serpents. Basil, the world's greatest threat, even greater than Voldemort, bred it. Basil is the one that I have to fight. So, going back to Basil's time is our fourth visit. The only thing that I don't know is why Ginny comes with me for all four times and why you two come only once.

'What will be, will be.' I know for a fact that I have defeated Basil. The only thing that I don't know is how I did so.

'The Dark Lord no longer reigns.' Voldemort no longer reigns over the wizarding world after we come back.

That is the meaning of the prophecy. Merlin told me that the first place that we're going to is my parents' time."

Here Harry choked a bit but continued.

"Voldemort, that bastard, sent some of his followers to the past to try to kill my parents so that I won't be born. We have to stop that. So now that you heard everything, are there any questions?"

"When are we going to the past?" Ron asked.

"Right now after we summon our trunks here with everything in it. I will shrink it. You can't do it without alerting anybody so let me do it.
