Chapter 11
Revan hurried to the girl's bathroom on the second floor where moaning Myrtle resided. Entering the bathroom he saw Myrtle floating there crying.
"Are you Myrtle?" Revan asked, knowing she probably didn't appreciate being called moaning.
"Who wants to know?" Myrtle replied through her tears.
"I'm Revan le Fey and I wanted to know how you died," Revan said in a rush.
Myrtle immediately stopped crying and became joyful. "I was minding my own business when I saw a pair of yellow eyes by the sink and the next thing I know I'm dead."
Revan went over to the sink to look for anything noteworthy when he spotted a snake engraved onto one of the taps.
§Open§ Revan said wondering if anything would happen.
Immediately after saying open the sink moved apart to reveal a tunnel, which he jumped down without hesitation ignoring Myrtle calling out for him. Reaching the end of the tunnel he found himself in a chamber full of bones. Advancing ahead he kept a careful eye out for the Basilisk, not too long after he came across a door with snakes surrounding it.
§Open§ Revan said making the door open and entering into a large chamber that had a statue of Salazar Slytherin's face at the end of the chamber.
'Be careful my son, the Basilisk is probably in this main chamber,' Morgana warned.
'Don't worry, I have my sensing abilities stretched out as far as possible, so I can sense the Basilisk before it approaches me,' Revan replied keeping a close eye on his surroundings.
Revan spotting Ginny lying on the ground ran over towards her. He knelt down next to her and started using his healing powers on her but noticed it wasn't having any effect. Sensing her soul was being drained he looked around for what could be responsible when he saw a diary not too far away from her. When he reached out to touch the diary he sensed foul dark magic coming off it, so with a push of his hand, he sent it flying to the opposite side of the chamber.
"Come on Ginny, I'm getting you out of here," Revan stated going to pick her body up figuring a distance between her and the diary would help her condition.
"I'm afraid neither of you two will be going anywhere," a boy's voice stated.
"Who are you?" Revan demanded pointing his wand at the boy and standing protectively in front of Ginny's body. The boy was quite tall and handsome he had jet black hair and dark eyes with pale skin. The boy was also partially visible like a ghost.
"My names Tom Riddle it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance Revan le Fey," Tom said pleasantly.
"What are you?" Revan asked seeing as he couldn't be human.
"A memory preserved in a diary for over fifty years," Tom stated with a hungry look in his eyes.
'There's no magic that can accomplish such a thing,' Morgana commented incredulity.
"Are you the one that's been attacking all the students," Revan said becoming warier of Tom.
"You are correct," Tom stated smiling.
"Why? What possible reason could you have to attack the students?" Revan asked, angry that he had attacked Tracey.
"The attacks served two purposes: the first to carry on my legacy and the second to provide a diversion so everyone's attention would be searching for the culprit, so I could slowly drain Ginny of her life force without being discovered," Tom replied without remorse for his actions.
"Then why did you bring Ginny here, that would only bring attention upon yourself," Revan said.
"Simple I wanted to meet you for a while now, ever since Ginny told me you met The Girl Who Lived and hinted you know how she defeated Lord Voldemort," Tom said his hunger in his eyes increasing with a red gleam visible for a few seconds.
"Why would you care about Voldemort? He was after your time," Revan said cautiously.
"Voldemort is my past, present and future Revan," Tom said smirking.
Tom then wrote in the air with Ginny's wand 'TOM MARVOLO RIDDLE' then with a wave of Ginny's wand the letters rearranged themselves into 'I AM LORD VOLDEMORT.'
"You're Voldemort," Revan said astonished.
"As if I would keep my muggle fathers name," Tom said in disgust. Revan could relate to his disgust of muggles. "So tell me Revan how did Naruko, manage to defeat the most powerful wizard of all time."
'He certainly has a high opinion of himself doesn't he,' Morgana said.
'Yeah he's nothing like the man I met last year,' Revan replied in disgust.
'This is his teenager self-full of his hatred and angst, so of course he going to be different, and spending fifty years alone inside of a diary, probably didn't help his mental state,' Morgana said getting a mental nod from Revan.
"The reason Naruko defeated you was that she had a demon sealed inside of her that deflected the Killing Curse back at you," Revan said. The tailed beasts aren't demons but he wasn't going to explain that right now with Ginny's life on the line.
This was all speculation on Revan's part as the red eyes Naruko had during their spar were clearly from a tailed beast. He wondered if Minato had sealed part of the Nine-Tails inside Naruko and never told anyone.
"I see that makes sense, the Killing Curse could never hope to overpower a demons magic," Tom said before a murderous glint entered his eyes. "I have to kill you now Revan, I can't have anyone interfering with my revival."
A loud screech was heard and Fawkes appeared holding the sorting hat in its feet before dropping it in front of Revan.
"Fawkes," Revan stated surprised.
"Dumbledore sends his champion a dirty old hat, I'll be sure to mock the old man about it when I kill him," Tom said sneering as he turned to the statue of Salazar Slytherin. §Speak to me Slytherin Greatest of the Hogwarts four§
Out of the statue's mouth, a sixty-foot snake emerged. Revan without delay closed his eyes, so he wouldn't accidentally look into the Basilisk eyes. He was deciding what to do as a Basilisk has magical resistant skin making a lot of his spells ineffective against it when his foot knocked something metal and hard. Looking down at the sorting hat after opening his eyes he saw a glint inside the hat, reaching inside he pulled out a magnificent looking sword.
Revan closed his eyes again and sensing where the Basilisk is, he fired lightning at it from his hands to attract its attention. Leading the Basilisk to the back of the chamber away from Ginny's body, he jumped to the top of Salazar Slytherin's statue head. Sensing the Basilisk raising its head for an attack Revan jumped to the side as he attacked it with his sword. The Basilisk let out a hiss of pain from the attack.
"Curse you Revan, you've managed to damage one of its eye," Tom said furiously.
'Good to know,' Revan thought pleased.
Revan then jumped over the Basilisk's head and ran down its back and jumped off it and landing on the ground. Sensing the Basilisk about to lunge its head at him he moved the sword upwards piercing the top of the Basilisk mouth killing it. The Basilisk body fell to the side with its head pointing towards the corner of the chamber. Meaning he was safe from the Basilisk's glare and could open his eyes. When he opened his eyes he saw Tom was looking at him murderously, before he slowly started smirking at him.
"It seems Revan you will be soon joining the Basilisk in death," Tom said with a smirk.
Revan looked to see what Tom was smirking at and he saw a Basilisk fang had broken off and pierced his arm. Not caring about the Basilisk fangs he was immune to its venom; he pulled the fang out of his arm and threw it to the side.
"Sorry to disappoint you, but I won't be dying today," Revan said smugly.
"How is that possible? No human can survive Basilisk venom," Tom said perplexed.
"There's no point telling you, as you'll be dead within a few seconds," Revan sated before stabbing the diary with his Basilisk venom covered sword. Tom screamed in pain before disappearing before his very eyes.
'How interesting he was defiantly no memory, I wonder if that how he survived his body getting destroyed all those years ago,' Morgana said mumbling to herself.
'Do you have an idea of how Voldemort survived that night all those years ago then?' Revan asked intrigued.
'I might do, but I'll get back to you on that, and by the way, it looks like Ginny is waking up,' Morgana replied.
Ginny woke up startled and looked around the chamber before spotting Revan and throwing her arms around him. Revan tensed from the hug but didn't pull away, knowing Ginny needed comfort after what she had just gone through.
"I'm so sorry Revan, I didn't mean to attack anyone, the diary was just too strong to resist," Ginny said crying.
"Its fine Ginny there was no way you could have possibly stopped Voldemort from possessing your body," Revan said softly rubbing circles on her back to calm her down.
"Tom was You-Know-Who," Ginny said gobsmacked with a little bit of fear.
"He was yes, that diary you have been using was an item of his, so there's no shame in failing to resist its possession," Revan said softly helping Ginny stand up.
"I understand, and thank you for rescuing me Revan," Ginny said giving him one more hug. The only reason Revan doesn't stop her is he knows she desperately needs this.
"Are you ready to leave this place?" Revan asked gently.
"I am yes, I never want to see this place ever again," Ginny said determinedly.
"Very well, let's get out of here," Revan said escorting Ginny out of the chamber.
Seeing as Ginny couldn't see behind her as her head was resting on his arm, he discreetly created a Wooden Clone behind them. The clone had orders to harvest the intact Basilisk eye as it could be useful in the future. It also had orders to destroy the face of the snake so it would look like both eyes were destroyed, so no one would be wiser about the missing one. Leaving the Chamber and entering the girl's bathroom, they saw Lockhart entering the room looking surprised to see them.
"Ah good your both alive," Lockhart said happily though it didn't reach his eyes.
"What are you doing here Lockhart?" Revan said in no mood to deal with this fool.
"I was going to head down into the chamber to rescue Miss Weasley, but it seems that is no longer needed," Lockhart said.
"Well I did your job for you, no surprise there, so if you woul-" Revan said before being stunned by Lockhart and falling unconscious.
"Why did you do that?" Ginny demanded holding Revan's unconscious body.
"It simple Miss Weasley I'm going to erase your memories of what really happened in the Chamber of Secrets, and take the credit for saving your life, just think off all the money I will make by writing about this," Lockhart said.
"You're a fraud, I bet you did that for all your other achievements as well didn't you," Ginny said angrily.
"Of course I've taken credit for countless deeds, but you won't remember any of this, so my secret is safe," Lockhart said.
"I would reconsider that thought," Ginny said smirking at him before disappearing before is very eyes along with the Revan's unconscious body.
"What!" Lockhart stated turning around and coming face to face with all the teachers looking at him in disgust with Revan and Ginny smirking at him.
"You fell for my genjutsu Lockhart, next time you shouldn't broadcast your intentions so much," Revan said tauntingly. Having read Lockhart's mind and knew what he was going to do, he casted a genjutsu on him to prove him a fraud for the teachers he sensed approaching.
"I believe Mr Lockhart that the Aurors will have a few questions to ask you," Dumbledore said with none of his usual joy in his voice.
"Now wait for just a second," Lockhart said desperately before trying to draw his wand. Dumbledore stunned Lockhart so fast that only Revan could track his movements.
'That was impressive,' Revan thought impressed, clearly old age hasn't impaired any of Dumbledore's skills.
"While the Professors wait for the Aurors to collect Mr Lockhart here, why don't you two join me in my office and you can explain everything that has happened," Dumbledore said looking at Revan and Ginny.
"Of course headmaster," Revan said politely while Ginny increased her grip on his arm.
In the headmaster's office, Revan explained everything that leads up to him finding the Chamber of Secrets and what took place in the chamber. He left out the parts about him getting stabbed by the Basilisk and harvesting a Basilisk eye, as it would raise many questions about him, and get him into trouble. The entire time Revan was explaining in his dead voice, not once did Dumbledore flinch raising Revan's respect for the man.
"I'm sorry you had to experience something traumatic like that Miss Weasley," Dumbledore said regretfully.
"Its fine headmaster, you had no way of knowing what was going on," Ginny said still nervous being in the presence of Dumbledore and not letting go of Revan's hand finding comfort in his touch.
"I shall endeavour to make sure nothing like this happens ever again," Dumbledore said strongly before speaking in his usual joyful tone. "Now I believe its best you head to the Hospital wing Miss Weasley to make sure you're there are no lasting after effects, and I'm sure your friends there will be quite happy to see you to alive and unharmed."
"Of course headmaster," Ginny said. Revan gave Ginny's hand a squeeze to reassure her earning a small smile from her before she left the room.
"It seems Lord le fey the school owes you a huge debt for your actions," Dumbledore said smiling.
"Thank you for the compliment headmaster, but I went into the Chamber of Secrets to rescue my friend. I didn't do it for the school," Revan said politely.
"None the less you still deserve a reward, I believe one hundred and fifty house points should be awarded to Slytherin," Dumbledore said smiling before carefully picking up the sword Revan had used to slay the Basilisk. "I take it you wondering about this sword Lord le Fey."
"I am yes; I have never seen such an impressive looking sword before," Revan said.
"That's because this is sword belongs to Godric Gryffindor," Dumbledore said enjoying the look of surprise on Revan's face.
"How did I pull the Gryffindor's sword from the sorting hat, if I'm in Slytherin," Revan said surprised.
"It's because the sword will come to the answer of anyone in need as long as they have a noble goal, like yourself seeking to protect your friend," Dumbledore said.
"That's very interesting to know," Revan said.
"Now I believe its best you head to the Hospital wing to make sure your fine, and to see your friends," Dumbledore said.
"Of course headmaster," Revan said politely raising from his seat elegantly and gracefully looking like a true King before leaving the room.
As soon as Revan left the room worry became clear in Dumbledore eyes. 'Only thirteen years old and Revan managed to slay a basilisk, how powerful will be become in the future, and will he go down a dark path like Gellert and Tom did.'

Entering the Hospital wing Revan was immediately bombarded with questions about what happened in the Chamber of Secrets, as Ginny didn't want to talk about it. So Revan gave his friends the edited version of what happened, by the time he had finished explaining everything they gave him looks of awe.
"I can't believe you managed to slay a Basilisk," Draco said impressed.
"That was a dangerous thing you did Lord le Fey," Madam Pomfrey said checking Revan for any injuries.
"My friend was in danger so I wasn't going to wait for someone else to rescue her," Revan said looking at Pomfrey before turning to Draco. "And didn't I say I would rescue Ginny, so there's no need to be so surprised."
"I thought you would grab Ginny and run to safety, not kill a thousand-year-old Basilisk," Draco responded as Pomfrey left them alone to head back to her office.
"So what are you going to do know then?" Daphne asked recognising the look in Revan's eye, meaning he had some sort of plan.
"In view of the fact that I killed the Basilisk means I can do whatever I want with its carcass, so over the summer I'm going to have the goblins harvest its body," Revan replied.
"I take it your harvesting the basilisk for the money then?" Theo asked with a still awe look on his face from Revan killing a Basilisk.
Revan shook his head. "No while the money is handy I have no need for it, no want I really want is armour made out of Basilisk hide, as the protection it would offer me would be advantageous in a fight."
"That's true," Tracey said before leaning over and giving Revan a puppy dog eye look. "Do you think I could have some of that armour? Pretty please, I am your best friend after all."
"No!" Revan stated not bothered by Tracey's look in the slightest.
"You're no fun," Tracey whined.
"By the way Ginny," Revan said looking at Ginny who had been quiet since he had arrived but had a small smile on her face from Tracey's whining. "You can have all the money from the harvesting of the Basilisk, as long as I get to keep the hide."
"What," Ginny said surprised before regaining her senses. "You can't do that, you deserve the money Revan you're the one that killed the Basilisk."
"While that's true, you're the one that's been suffering for the past year, it's only fair you get something out of this entire ordeal," Revan replied in a tone that said he wouldn't take no for an answer.
The first reason Revan was giving Ginny the money from the Basilisk, was because after being possessed for nearly a year he felt she deserved compensation. The second reason was he noticed Ginny was embarrassed by the second-hand clothes and items she had. This way he could give Ginny the money to buy better things without it looking like it was charity, as he knew she would refuse if she thought he was giving it to her out of pity.
"If you're sure," Ginny said hesitantly.
"I am yes, once the Basilisk is harvested I'll give all the money to you," Revan said as money was no concern to him when he had a Philosopher stone in his possession. He only cared about the Basilisk hide.
"Fine I'll take the money," Ginny said in defeat knowing she won't be able to change Revan's mind.
"Glad you saw things my way," Revan said cheekily earning a glare from Ginny that was cute in his opinion not intimidating.
Later that day during dinner in the Great Hall Dumbledore explained to everyone in attendance that the Chamber of Secrets had been discovered by Lord le Fey, and the Basilisk inside of the chamber had been slain by him. Dumbledore also explained that the chamber had been opened by a dark item, which was created by Voldemort to carry on his work in the event of his death.
The vast majority of the school shot Revan apologetic looks as they had believed he had been the one to open the Chamber of Secrets. Revan however just ignored their looks not caring for the opinions of peasants. The Weasley family did give Revan grateful looks for saving their sister except for Ron, who was looking at Ginny in disgust no doubt still thinking she was going to be a dark witch.
His clone later met up with him having safely harvested the Basilisk eye. So Revan safely stored the Basilisk eye in a metal container that was full of an anti decaying potion, so no one would accidentally look at it and die. The clone had also brought back with him five Basilisk fangs as the venom might be useful in the future.
Not too long after the school year ended with Slytherin winning the house cup again not that anyone could really complain. Seeing as Revan earned those points for slaying a Basilisk and rescuing his friend from death.
Without the diary to slowly drain Ginny of her life force she became more social and outspoken. Ginny had taken to teasing Draco a lot making him red with rage to the amusement of his friends. When Revan wasn't looking Ginny would send him looks of reverence, which her friends teased her about good-heartedly.
Before boarding, the Hogwarts Express Revan gave all of his friend's scrolls with instructions on how to improve their training and new jutsus, which they were all grateful for. Ginny had also asked to be trained in how to use chakra so Revan gave her a scroll with beginner instructions for her to learn from. When they returned to Hogwarts in a few months Revan would then teach Ginny more complex things.
After departing from the Hogwarts Express in London and saying goodbye to his friends, and ignoring their worried looks for his behaviour, he teleported back home. It only took a few days but without the presence of his friends or school life to distract him, the nightmares slowly got worse as he would start reliving his rape in vivid detail.
To help Revan with his nightmares Morgana suggested they go to France, as a change of scenery might help him get over his nightmares. So Revan went to France but not before leaving a clone in Great Britain to handle the harvesting of the Basilisk with the Goblins and to look after Morrigan and Thana.
In France, he rented a house on a beach for himself, in a magical part of France as he didn't want to be near any muggles. Given that a muggle had raped him it would be counterproductive to heal if was near them during his holiday. One day he was in France's equivalent of Diagon Alley in a bookshop reading an English book they had when he was interrupted by a voice.
"Excuse me, could I have that book your reading, seeing that it's the last one in the store," an arrogant voice said in French. Revan understood her thanks to his Mothers lessons as she knew a bit of French. He couldn't read French but he could at least understand what people were saying.
Revan looked up from the book he was reading and saw one of the most beautiful women he had ever seen in his life. She was only a few years older than him, was taller than him and had an air of grace around her that only seemed to increase her beauty. The woman had long silvery blonde hair that went to her waist, her eyes were blue and had fair white skin and had plentiful curves.
Revan did sense there was some sort of allure around the woman that was trying to passively affect his senses but failing. Unknown to Revan this allure was designed to entrance men but due to his Occlumency shields and current mental state it wouldn't work, since at the moment, he felt zero attraction for any woman. Recognising the woman wasn't trying to use her allure on him deliberately Revan didn't mention it.
"No I'm reading this copy, you'll have to wait till they have another copy in stock," Revan said dismissively in a cold voice.
He decided to disguise his dead voice by making his voice sound cold, so he would unnerve people less and show less weakness. Furthermore just because this woman was one of the most beautiful women he had ever seen, doesn't mean he was going to give her his book. The woman looked surprised at being told no Revan noticed, since she was probably used to men doing anything she asks and not refusing. The woman's face soon turned to anger.
"What do you mean no?" the woman asked angrily.
"Really you need to ask what no means, I guess you really are only a pretty face," Revan said as if speaking to a dim-witted child. He also noticed how other girls around this woman's age were giggling at the look of rage on her face.
"Very well perhaps this will change your mind," the woman said mockingly shooting a full blast of her allure at Revan though the unexpected happened as he didn't become a blushing mess.
Revan's Occlumency shields easily blocked the effects of the allure though unknown to him he would have still blushed a little, as it was his first time he was exposed to the allure of a Veela.
"You're not affected by my allure, how is that possible?" the woman asked astonished with the other girls in the shop mirroring her surprise.
Unfortunately for her Revan's mind was flashing back to being at the mercy of Hanare and drawing parallels between Hanare controlling him and this woman trying to. Without even thinking Revan pushed his hand forward and shot lightning at her sending her flying backwards and into a bookcase. The last thing the woman saw before falling unconscious was fear and anger in Revan's eyes.
Revan realising he had just knocked out a person dropped the book he was reading and quickly left the store ignoring the startled and fearful looks he was getting. Later that day during the sunset Revan was on the patio of his rented house reading a muggle book about Arthurian legends, since it greatly amused him and Morgana.
Revan and Morgana couldn't help but laugh at what the muggles thought had taken place in Camelot. The exception to this was the legend that says Morgana slept with Arthur and produced a child of incest called Mordred. If it was possible Morgana would have murdered the person that said she slept with her own brother. Why that legend existed was unknown to the two of them as Arthur was actually called Arturia and was a woman, so they couldn't have produced a child together anyways.
So while Revan was smiling in delight reading his book, a family was walking across the beach and passed his house. Revan had sensed them approaching a mile away but gave them no thought until one voice angrily called out. "You're the boy from the store."
Revan looked up from his book and saw the woman that he had shot lightning at earlier pointing at him angrily. Next to her were three people that must have been her family, due to the resemblance between them. Her father was the tallest out of all of them and had dark hair and blue eyes. The Mother was a beautiful blond woman with large curves and looked like an older version of her oldest daughter. The youngest girl clearly the woman's sister looked like a younger version of her.
Revan seeing the woman and her Mother's beauty didn't even bat an eye, not bothered by their beauty in the slightest. He let out a sigh already knowing this was going to be annoying to deal with, and walked down from his patio and approached the family.
"Can I help you?" Revan asked in a bored and cold voice making the Mother frown.
"Yes you can, are you the one that shot lightning at my daughter knocking her unconscious," the Father demanded.
"I am yes and who are you?" Revan asked his tone not changing.
"I am Joseph Delacour the head of France's Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and for attacking my daughter Fleur you're under arrest," Joseph said seriously though the smug satisfaction was visible in his eyes.
"Really you think you can arrest me for self-defence how amusing," Revan said smirking.
"What do you mean self-defence? You clearly attacked my daughter without provocation," Joseph said angrily.
"Is that was your daughter told you," Revan said seeing Fleur blush in embarrassment. "No, I attacked her for using her allure on me."
"You didn't mention that Fleur," Joseph said looking at his daughter.
"I didn't think it was that important," Fleur said looking down at her feet.
"More likely you didn't want to tell anyone you used your allure on me, so I would give you the book I was reading," Revan said dryly making Fleur even more embarrassed.
"Is this true Fleur?" Joseph asked.
"It is papa," Fleur said.
Joseph let out a sigh. "Well this changes things, but I still need to bring you in boy, you did attack someone."
Revan could tell there was no reason to bring him in Joseph was only doing it because he had attacked his daughter.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Revan said.
"And why's that?" Joseph asked looking amused.
Revan raised his hand showing off his le Fey ring. "I am Lord le Fey the head of a Most Ancient and Most Revered House, who do you think your Ministry will support a Veela or a Lord that was protecting himself from being ensnared by a Veela."
The Delacour family looked surprised before they realised how bad it would be for them, if it got out the daughter of the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, had tried to ensnare a Lord. That wasn't what took place but the stigma surrounding Veela, meant most people would believe Lord le Fey's side of the story.
"Is there a way we could settle this with the Ministry getting involved?" the Mother asked calmly before her husband could make things worse.
"And you would be?" Revan asked.
"My names Apolline Lord le Fey," Apolline said in a sensual tone, no doubt trying to make Revan a stuttering mess but it had no effect on him. This made Apolline frown in displeasure before she covered it up by smiling.
"Simple Miss Delacour I want nothing from you, you carry with your walk, I go back to reading my book, and we pretend we never met, simple as that," Revan stated calmly.
"Really you're not going to get the Ministry involved?" Fleur asked hopefully.
"I'm not as petty as to ruin a family because of the actions of one member," Revan said already bored with this conversation.
"Thank you Lord le Fey," Apolline said gratefully. Knowing her husband would have probably lost his job if both the French and English Ministry got involved.
"You're welcome, just never bother me again, and everything will be settled between us," Revan said walking back to his house.
Joseph still wanted to punish Revan for attacking his daughter but he calmed himself down, knowing if he did he would only make a bigger mess of things. While the Delacour family was leaving Fleur watched Revan walking away and couldn't help but notice how great of an ass he has. For some unknown reason, Revan felt a chill run down his spine like he was a piece of meat about to be devoured.
Apolline walking away couldn't help but think back to her conversation with Revan and notice how he seems to be suffering from many dark emotions. She was a well-renowned mind healer that had the special ability of being an empath. It was only for one second during the conversation that she felt Revan's emotions when there was a gap in his mental shields, and she nearly collapsed from the emotions Revan was feeling. Whatever Revan had experienced had clearly scared him for life.
A few days later Revan was walking through a nearby village buying some food and making sure to avoid muggles as much as possible especially the girls that were trying to flirt with him, but luckily his cold glare sent them running. On the opposite side of the village, he sensed some magic being released. Curious as to what was going on he walked into a dark alley and saw Fleur and her sister running away from five men that had lustful looks on their faces.
It didn't take long for Revan to put together what was happening. Fleur or her sister must have lost control of their allure and accidently attracted these pieces of scum after them. Revan having a flashback to what Hanare raping him moved on instinct as no one deserved to be raped not even an arrogant Veela. Appearing behind the man closet to the Delacour sisters he snapped his neck before anyone noticed he was there.
As the man's body was falling Revan spun around and with a swipe of his arm, sent a strong blast of wind at the other rapists. The blast of wind cut the other men in half with their body falling to the ground with their guts falling out of their bodies and onto the ground, making the Delacour sisters scream in panic.
Revan raised his arms showing he meant no harm. "Don't worry I'm not here to hurt you, those rapist pieces of trash have been dealt with."
"Lord le Fey?" Fleur asked hesitantly recognising his voice but couldn't see his face, due to how dark it was.
"I am yes," Revan said creating a ball of light in his hand so Fleur could see him. Fleur quickly covered her sister's eye so she wouldn't see what Revan had done to the rapists.
"Thank you for rescuing my sister and me," Fleur said gratefully knowing what those men had in store for them and glad to have avoided such a fate.
"No problem let's get you back to your family," Revan said almost kindly helping the Delacour sisters stand up. "And you don't need to worry about your sister I put an illusion on her, when I created the ball of light, so she won't have to see what the bodies look like leaving this alley."
"Thank you," Fleur said glad Gabrielle wouldn't have to see what the remains of the rapists look like. A small part of her was pleased the rapists had suffered a brutal death.
"Come on let's get you home," Revan said keeping a respectful distance knowing rape victims or ones that had nearly been raped don't like being touched.
As the three of them were leaving the alley Revan created a clone to clean up the mess surprising Fleur as she had never seen such magic before. Once they were far enough away from the alley Revan took the genjutsu off Gabrielle, seeing as she wouldn't need it any more. It didn't take them long to reach the Delacour summer house and to his surprise, it wasn't too far from his own.
Fleur opened the front door and when the Delacour sisters saw their mother, they threw themselves into her arms and started crying. Joseph arrived not too long after wondering what the commotion was, and when he saw his daughters crying he immediately blamed Revan and started approaching him threateningly. The cold look Revan sent Joseph stopped him in his tracks telling him he stood no chance against him so don't even try anything.
It took five minutes for Apolline to calm down her daughters and get them to explain everything that had happened. Both parents were horrified to hear what had nearly befallen their children and were very grateful for Revan interfering and saving their daughters from such a fate.
"Thank you very much Lord le Fey for saving my daughters," Joseph said sincerely. While he doesn't like Revan for hurting Fleur he is grateful that Revan saved his daughters.
"You're welcome, no one deserves to be raped, it was only right that I interfere," Revan said coldly thinking how rapists are pieces of scum and should be wiped off the face of the Earth. Not noticing Apolline nearly collapsing from his small gap in his mental shields.
"How can we ever repay you Lord le Fey?" Apolline asked with tears going down her beautiful face that somehow didn't ruin her looks in the slightest.
"There's no need, no one should be rewarded for stopping a rape, as it was the right thing to do," Revan said whishing someone had stopped his rape like he did with the Delacour sisters.
"You saved my daughters from a fate worse than death, it's only right that I reward you," Apolline said looking thoughtful. "I know what if I give you free mind healing sessions as a reward for you services."
"Thank you for the offer, but I refuse," Revan said coldly but politely. Not wanting some random woman in his head.
"Really are you sure about that, considering how much you would benefit from it, as I can tell you are in desperate need of it," Apolline said.
"What do you mean in desperate need of it?" Revan asked tensing his body getting ready to act if he needs to.
"Twice since I met you there have been tiny gaps in your mental shields and as an empath, I have been able to read your emotional state, and the dark emotions you are been feeling, are enough to nearly knock me unconscious," Apolline said regretfully for reading Revan's emotions without his permission.
'How has she been reading my emotions, I'm a Master Occlumens there shouldn't be a way for her to be able to read my emotions,' Revan thought not liking Apolline that sensed his current inner turmoil.
'It's because of your current mental state, seeing as your mind hasn't fully covered from being raped there are occasional gapes in your shields, since if your mind is in turmoil your mental shields can't be perfect. I plug the gaps up as fast as I can, but I guess I wasn't fast enough to stop her from sensing her emotions,' Morgana said.
'You mean to say there have been gaps in my mental shields since I have been raped?' Revan asked in horror.
'Just small gaps that I quickly fix, so you don't need to worry no one has tried to read your mind, as I would have sensed them if they had tried,' Morgana replied.
'Why did you never tell me about this?' Revan asked annoyed Morgana had never mentioned this to him.
'Because these small gaps will vanish once your mental state has fully recovered, and I was worried if I told you about them you would try and force yourself to get over what you experienced faster, which would have been unhealthy for you, and only cause more damage to yourself in the long run,' Morgana explained calmly.
Revan could grudgingly see where his Mother was coming from, even if he didn't like she had neglected to tell him about the gap in his mental shields that had existed since Christmas.
'I can see where you were coming from even if I don't like it,' Revan said annoyed before calming down. 'So what do you think of Apolline's offer should I take it?'
'A mind healer could be helpful to you in overcoming your nightmares, but be careful what you tell her, I wouldn't put it past her to use any information she finds out about you, against you in the future,' Morgana warned.
'I see your point, and I'll be careful of what I say to her,' Revan said. "Thank you for the offer I'll graciously take you up on it."
"Wonderful to hear," Apolline said happily grateful she could repay Revan for saving her daughters. "Come back in a few days and we can have your first session."
"Of course Miss Delacour," Revan said politely before leaving her and Joseph to deal with their distraught daughters.
A few days later Revan returned to the Delacour house for his first mental health session with Apolline. While Revan was waiting for his first session he had done his research about Apolline and had discovered she was quite an accomplished witch. Apolline was the head of Frances equivalent of St Mungo's and had several Masters in the healing arts.
There was a huge demand for her services as she had a rare skill among Veela which was that of an empath. This meant a lot of pureblood families wanted to hire her if there was ever a need for mental care. As an empath could help a person heal much faster as they could tell what was wrong with a patient, much easier than a normal doctor could.
Before Revan started spilling his guts to Apolline he made her take an Unbreakable Vow, in which she promised to never tell another person the secrets she learnt in their sessions. Apolline wasn't too happy with that demand or her husband but Revan was adamant on it, or otherwise, he wouldn't go to the sessions. He eventually wore them down and Apolline performed an Unbreakable Vow to never share what she learnt from Revan in their sessions.
So here he was entering the Delacour house and laying down on a couch in a private room, with Apolline sitting not too far away from him on a chair. The first session started out with general questions that Revan vaguely answered. It wasn't until a few sessions later that Revan let down part of his mental shields and let Apolline feel his emotions clearly, she nearly collapsed from the number of negative emotions Revan was feeling.
Apolline was displeased with how slow Revan was opening up to her, but at least she was making some progress. While Revan was having his sessions he had started opening up to the Delacour family when he would visit them. Joseph was on neutral terms with Revan as he would never like Revan for attacking Fleur, but was grateful he saved his daughters from a terrible fate.
Revan did apologise for attacking Fleur saying he overacted as he had past experience with someone trying to take away his free will, and didn't like being reminded of such things. Fleur also apologised saying trying to use her allure on him was wrong. With the matter settled between the two of them, it wasn't long before they were on friendly terms with each other. Gabrielle warned up to him when he showed her some cool tricks with his magic and gave her a piggyback ride along the beach. After that, she forgave him for attacking her sister.
Revan didn't notice it himself but the Delacour's did that he was becoming less cold to people in general and was opening up to them. He stilled disliked physical contact though that was something Fleur was determined to help him get over. So Fleur kept giving him hugs when she could. It didn't help that she would wear a bikini that showed off her curves especially her large breasts, and when she hugged him he could feel her large breasts pressed against his body.
He was only thirteen years old and one of the most beautiful women he had ever seen, who was only fifth teen years old was pushing her large chest against him. So he had to make sure he didn't react in any way that would show his arousal. Luckily he had the training to not show such things nonetheless from the pleased glint in Fleur's eye, she knew what he was trying to hide. It was all in good fun however as Fleur meant nothing nasty she was just trying to help him get used to physical contact.
During a family meal that Revan was invited to Gabrielle accidentally revealed that she was a Veela, and looked horrified thinking Revan would treat her different for having magical creature blood. Revan assured he already knew due to her allure and thought no less of her for being part Veela earning a grateful hug from her. He went on to explain he's a follower of the Old Religion and see's anyone with magic in their blood precious and finds discrimination because of blood purity ridiculous. So they had nothing to worry about from him.
Fleur after finding out Revan had used chakra to create the clone that dealt with the rapist's bodies to the surprise of the rest of the Delacour's, as no one outside the Elemental Nations could use chakra, asked to be trained in how to use chakra. So she could handle herself next time someone tried to rape her. Revan knowing what it felt like to be helpless agreed and Fleur turned out to be a prodigy.
Fleur had a large chakra level and great control and had fire chakra as her element, not surprising considering she's quarter Veela. It did bring a laugh to him and her family when she would try and learn water walking but would fail and fall into the pool in her back garden at her house.
To get back at Revan laughing at her Fleur grabbed him and pulled him into the pool. Soon a water fight broke out between them with Gabrielle jumping into the pool to join them. By the time the water fight was over the three of them were laughing their heads off, while Joseph and Apolline smiled glad to see their daughters having so much fun. A month later during one of the sessions, Revan finally decided to open up more to Apolline.
"I've never told you the reason why I dislike physical contact or I'm suffering from so many dark emotions have I?" Revan asked turning on the couch to look Apolline in the eyes. The only reason he was talking about this with Apolline was that Morgana told him it might help him with his nightmares.
"No you haven't," Apolline said calmly not wanting to rush him and scare him off from sharing with her.
Revan took a deep breath and double checked that no one was listening in with his sensing ability before he began talking. "During the Christmas holidays last year I was raped."
"What!" Apolline said horrified by what she was hearing, not expecting that someone as so powerful as Revan could be overpowered and raped.
"I was helping a muggle," Revan said with anger and disgust making Apolline eyes widen in surprise finally understanding why he had such a hatred of muggles. "Return to her home after nearly being raped by some bandits, on the way to her village it got dark, so we decided to camp for the night and during that time, she drugged the food so I was completely helpless as I couldn't move any part of my body, for the entire night she raped me while I was forced to just lie there and do nothing about it."
Apolline got off her seat and gave Revan a hug making him stiffen that she ignored. "I'm so sorry you had to experience something like that, especially when you saved her from experiencing such a fate herself."
"Thank you, even months later I'm still not over what she did to me," Revan said brokenly.
"That's perfectly fine I've had patients before who have never completely gotten over such a fate, and you'll probably never will either, it's something that will stay with you for life, even my daughters despite not showing it, are shaken by what nearly happened to them, so don't think there's anything wrong with you for a second," Apolline said softly.
Revan soon burst in tears letting everything out he was feeling. Apolline gently raised her hands to his head and with his permission, once he had lowered his mental shields, sent her magic into his head to calm him down. The session went on longer than usual as Revan explained everything he was feeling to Apolline but by the time it was over Revan felt a weight had been lifted off his chest.
Later late night before the sun had set Revan heard knocking on his door so he answered and saw Fleur standing there wearing some beach clothes that only enhanced her beauty. Fleur could be wearing rags in his opinion and she would still look beautiful. While Revan was admiring Fleur's beauty she was, in turn, looking studying Revan's body.
Revan despite being thirteen years old looked very handsome for his age. He was a bit taller than the average thirteen year old and his regal features were becoming more defined giving him a very noble look. His muscles were toned and he had a six pack, his body was built like a swimmers body for speed in a fight. Fleur appreciated the sight Revan was giving her as he wasn't wearing a top at the moment just shorts.
"Hey, Revan can I come in?" Fleur asked smiling at him.
"Of course," Revan replied returning her smile.
It was a few weeks ago that the two of them had become friends. Fleur was ecstatic to have a male friend that wasn't trying to get into her pants and Revan was happy to have a friend that treated him like a normal person and not like a Lord. Revan had learnt a lot about Fleur in the short time he had known her.
The arrogant mask Fleur wears is meant to protect herself from the other students at Beauxbatons who are extremely jealous of her beauty and skills. This meant she didn't have a lot of friends as most were afraid she would steal their boyfriends. Consequently, to hide the hurt she was feeling from all spiteful comments she would receive, she would act arrogant as if she was above everyone else, and they weren't worth her notice. Underneath the mask though was a warm and caring girl who loved her sister immensely, and wanted to be recognised for her skills, not her beauty.
Fleur headed to back garden of his house where a pool was installed, and stripped off her clothes so she was only in a bikini nearly making Revan blush and jumped in.
"Come and join me Revan, the waters wonderful," Fleur said kicking her legs to stay afloat.
"It would be my pleasure," Revan said jumping into the pool as he was already wearing shorts.
As the two of them was swimming around in the pool Revan could tell Fleur was delaying speaking to him, so she could build up the necessary courage to speak to him about something important. When Revan was getting out of the pool Fleur hugged him from behind, but the thing that was different to her usual hugs was that he could feel her bare body on his back.
"Fleur," Revan said taken off guard by her actions. "What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry for what happened to you," Fleur said sadly.
"What do you mean?" Revan asked confused seeing as nothing had happened to him recently.
"I know about you being raped last year," Fleur said.
Revan spun around in shock ignoring Fleur's naked body, and looked directly into her eyes and asked angrily. "How do you know about that?"
"I overheard your conversation with my Mom," Fleur said regretfully not breaking eye contact with Revan.
"How I checked the room there was only Apolline and me in the room," Revan demanded horrified someone else knew his deepest darkest secret. He was even considering wiping her memories so no one else would know about his rape.
"I was hiding in the closet that has magical protections placed on it, so you couldn't sense if anyone was in there," Fleur said looking sorry for her actions.
"So you heard everything than about what happened to me," Revan said lowering his head in shame expecting Fleur to be disgusted by him.
Fleur gently raised his chin and gave him a comforting smile. "I don't think any less of you because you were raped Revan, I'm proud of you because you've come so far since then."
"Really you think so?" Revan asked quietly feeling insecure.
"I do, plus I was nearly raped, so I'm not going to look down on you am I, as that would make me a hypocrite," Fleur said gently.
"Thank you Fleur," Revan said giving her a grateful hug before pulling back and giving her an annoyed look. "I'm still not happy with you for listening in during my session though."
"I figured, so I thought I would come over to help, as thanks for saving me from being raped, and for being a good friend by getting you over your fear of being touched," Fleur said.
"I don't fear being touched Fleur I'm just uncomfortable being touched after what happened to me," Revan said defensively.
"I know, that's why I'm going to help you get over it," Fleur said giving him a light kiss on the lips.
"Fleur," Revan said surprised.
"Don't think just follow your instincts," Fleur said sensually all Revan could think that thank the Gods Morgana was asleep right now.

After their light make-out session that they took slow so Revan wouldn't be uncomfortable, they were lying together on Revan's couch. Revan's eyes were focused on Fleur's large breasts moving up and down.
"If you're done staring at my breasts," Fleur said amused.
"Sorry, but I can't help but look at such magnificent things," Revan said giving her a smile.
"I suppose I should forgive you then as long as you give me a kiss in return," Fleur replied seductively.
"As you wish," Revan said giving her a kiss.
Fleur reluctantly broke it. "As much as I enjoyed that, I need to head home."
"Of course," Revan said getting off the coach and summoning Fleur clothes for her.
"Thank you," Fleur said putting on her clothes while making a show of it for Revan.
"I suppose I'll see you tomorrow then," Revan said.
"Of course," Fleur said giving him another kiss before leaving through the front door.
'Well that's something every Mother wants to see when they wake up, their son making out with a girl,' Morgana said sarcastically when Revan was alone making him freeze in horror.
'You saw that,' Revan replied horrified his Mother saw him making out with Fleur.
'I did yes,' Morgana said dryly. 'I woke up when you were using your tongue on Fleur's-"
'I don't need any more information,' Revan said cutting Morgana off making her laugh in amusement.
'I'm only teasing it's natural at your age, though I didn't expect you to be doing such a thing so soon considering you know what,' Morgana said smiling sadly.
'Neither did I, but it was hard to resist when a naked Veela wants to make out with you, and understands why you're hesitant about such things, and is okay about it taking things slow,' Revan said.
'It's very rare you find a woman like that so I'm glad you found one and getting over your dislike of being touched by making out with a woman you're comfortable with, will help you recover from your rape,' Morgana said pleased before turning serious. 'What are you going to do about Fleur knowing about your rape, I know you didn't want to tell anyone about it, and only told Apolline because of the vow she took.'
'Before we started making out I read Fleur's mind to make sure she was telling the truth, and she did accidentally listen in on my session, she was in the room looking for her wand that her sister had hidden, and when she heard Apolline and me approaching she panicked, and hid in the closet and overheard everything, she hasn't told anyone about what she heard, so I'm unsure what to do about it' Revan said.
'You could still wipe her memories of what she heard during your session,' Morgana suggested.
'I could, but I wouldn't feel right doing it to my friend after we just made out.' Revan replied.
'I don't think you can call Fleur just a friend, after what I saw you two doing to each other earlier,' Morgana said teasingly enjoying her son's atomic blush.
'Moving on from that, I really don't know what to do while I'm grateful Fleur was understanding of what happened and was patient with me, I don't like that she knows about my rape, plus I don't know if we made out because she fancies me or she feels grateful for me saving her from being raped, and decided to repay me,' Revan stated.
'From what I could tell it's a bit off both, she likes you more than a friend and wanted to help you get over your rape because she cares for you, and as thanks for saving her from such a fate,' Morgana responded.
'Glad to know she actually likes me and it wasn't out of gratitude, I would have felt I was taking advantage of her otherwise,' Revan said.
'Everything you two did was because Fleur wanted to do so, so don't think you took advantage for a second,' Morgana said.
'So while I know Fleur likes me this will probably only be a summer romance not that I'm complaining, but how do I know she won't say or accidentally mention anything about my rape in the future,' Revan said.
'That's a risk you're going to have to take unless you take drastic actions,' Morgana stated.
'I'll think about it tomorrow, I have all summer to decide what to do,' Revan said heading for bed and casting Scourgify on the couch to remove all evidence of their make-out session.
For the next few weeks, Fleur and Revan would meet up and make out when they could without her parents noticing, although the looks Apolline sent them, suggested they weren't as discreet as they thought they were. The mental health sessions and making out with Fleur really helped Revan get over his rape. While he'll never be touchy-feely with strangers he has no problems giving hugs to people he knows now. Gabrielle partially enjoyed it when he would put her on his shoulders and go for a walk, something he wouldn't have done a couple of months ago.
Morgana did explain to Revan that due to Fleur being part Veela she was more sexually active than normal girls, that doesn't make her a slut or anything she just enjoys exploring the human body earlier than most. Revan also learnt Veela are attracted to power as it helps them find a strong mate so they can bare strong children, which is something Revan has in spades. This is probably why his relationship with Fleur went from friend to girlfriend so fast.
Revan will never totally get over the rape but he was much better than before, his eyes were no longer dead to the world and his voice was full of life again. Coming to France was one of the best decisions he had ever done. Sadly all good things must come to an end, he had been in France long enough as it was already halfway through August and he needed to go back to Great Britain.
The night before he went back to Great Britain he was alone in his house with Fleur. Morgana was out on a walk as she didn't want to see her son making out again. Revan and Fleur were happily chatting away together on his patio when Revan broke the bad news.
"Fleur tomorrow I'm heading back to Great Britain," Revan stated bluntly.
"What why?" Fleur asked upset.
"I've been in France longer then I thought I would be, I was only supposed to stay for a month but then I met you and had a wonderful time, you became a great friend and helped me heal from a terrible tragedy, but I've got to head back home, school starts in a few weeks and I need to get ready for it," Revan said sadly not wanting to leave.
"I understand we both knew this would only be a summer romance anyways, as there was no way a long distance relationship could work between us," Fleur said unhappily as she would have to say goodbye to her friend.
"I'm glad you understand," Revan said to his friend or was it girlfriend or friends with benefits they never really decided what to call their relationship.
"I want you to know the past few months have been the happiest of my life Revan," Fleur said giving Revan a French kiss that lasted for a few minutes.
When the kiss broke their mouths were still connected by saliva though both were smiling. "These past few months, have been the best summer I could have hoped for.
"Good then follow me to your room!" Fleur ordered playfully swaying her hips.
Revan followed Fleur up the stairs not taking his eyes off her swaying ass. In the Master bedroom, Fleur stripped off all her clothes with Revan following suite and both lying on the bed.
"Since this is our last night together let's make it memorable," Fleur said seductively.
"It would be my pleasure," Revan said getting ready for one hell of a make-out session.
The following day Revan struggled to keep a grin off his face from the events of last night. As the two of them last night had gone farther together than they ever had before. Though they didn't have sex as Revan still wasn't ready for such a thing they still did plenty of other things. The things the two of them did together did help Revan with his trauma knowing sexual acts aren't terrible and can be enjoyable.
Revan said goodbye to the Delacour family in the morning after he was all packed. Gabrielle was sad to see him go as she had come to see him as an older brother figure. He reassured Gabrielle he wouldn't forget about her and to calm her down, he gave her some pearls he had found while exploring the bottom of the ocean. Gabrielle was extremely happy from receiving such a gift that she gave him a hug as thanks.
Revan thanked Apolline sincerely for the mind healing sessions as he really needed them, but she waved away his thanks, saying she was only repaying a debt and he was welcome. Joseph over the last few months had come to better terms with Revan. While they were shaking hands as they were saying goodbye Joseph joked how Fleur will never find a better boyfriend than him in her life.
The blush Fleur and Revan had on their faces made everyone else laugh. Perhaps Joseph had noticed Fleur and him meeting up after all. The last person he said goodbye to was Fleur, but as they said goodbye last night in their own way they didn't have much to say to each other now.
"It was a pleasure meeting you Fleur, and thanks for being a great friend these past few months," Revan said to Fleur a bit off from her family so they could have a private goodbye.
"It was a pleasure and I think you mean girlfriend not friend," Fleur said mischievously enjoying Revan's blush.
Revan forced his blush down. "I suppose you have a good point, so thanks for being a great girlfriend then," Revan said giving Fleur one last kiss as they both knew it was very unlikely they would ever see each other again.
"Get out of here you love-struck man," Fleur said teasingly. "I think my Papa will have an aneurysm if he sees you kissing me again, and don't worry I remember what we discussed a few weeks ago, I won't tell anybody about what happened to you, I swear."
"Thank you Fleur, you have no idea what that means to me," Revan said giving her a hug and teleporting before her very eyes.
As soon as Revan was gone Fleur's face fell. As she was sad she would never see Revan again. Apolline approached Fleur while Joseph was taking Gabrielle back to the house.
"I know it hurts Fleur, but you will get over the heartbreak in time, that's the problem with summer romances, their wonderful but they leave you with a heart that feels like lead," Apolline said comforting her daughter.
"Are you speaking from experience Mama?" Fleur asked with an upset look on her face.
"I am yes; I had a summer romance just like you, though my boyfriend at the time clearly wasn't as talented as yours if the smile on your face is any indication," Apolline said mischievously.
"MOM," Fleur shouted embarrassed.
"What it wasn't that hard to notice, so tell me was how large is Revan downstairs," Apolline said laughing at Fleur's blushing face.
Apolline was grateful to Revan for becoming friends, and later boyfriend with Fleur as that meant she could experience a normal summer. One where she didn't have to pretend to be someone she wasn't, and just have some fun a girl her age should. Though the way Fleur was describing last night Apolline couldn't help but think whoever Revan's wife turns out to be, is going to be one lucky woman.
Back in Great Britain Morgana was teasing Revan over the events from last night but Revan completely ignored her. While Revan was in France the clone he had left behind, had handled everything to do with the harvesting of the Basilisk. In the basement, there was plenty of Basilisk hide to make a few sets of armour. The money made from the selling of the Basilisk parts was given to Ginny, who was keeping it in her own bank account for a rainy day.
This was much to the annoyance of Molly who wanted the money in the family account so everyone could use it, but Ginny adamantly refused to give up her own money. Ron was jealous of the money Ginny had despite the fact she was only getting it because she was being possessed by Voldemort over the past year. Revan giving Ginny the money from the Basilisk harvest did increase his reputation with Arthur, Percy, the twins, Charlie and Bill much to the annoyance of Ron and Molly.
Revan sent letters to his friends to see if they were free to meet up as he hadn't seen them in a few months. Morrigan later returned with a letter from Daphne saying she could pop over right now with Tracey who was already at her house, seeing no problem with that he let them come over.
Detecting two people at the front gate Revan went outside and saw Daphne and Tracey smiling at him. Daphne had grown over the summer she was much taller the before as she was always a bit on the short side. Her curves had started growing out and she had lost quite a bit of a baby fat. In a few years, she would be the most beautiful girl in school.
Tracey had gown as well she was only a little bit smaller then Daphne and had started developing curves as well, though they weren't as big as Daphne's in the chest department. While Tracey wouldn't be as beautiful as Daphne in the future she would still be an incredibly stunning woman. Though at the moment Revan thought Tracey was the most attractive out of the two.
"It's good to see you two, have you had a good summer so far?" Revan asked pleasantly smiling at them happily.
Daphne and Tracey were taken back by how lively Revan sounded. Upon a closer look, they noticed Revan's eyes were full of life again and he was smiling a true smile, not one he usually gave them to reassure them he was fine when it was clear he wasn't. Both of them blushed slightly when they noticed without the look of despair on his face, Revan was the most handsome boy they had ever seen. Fortunately for them Revan didn't notice there bush to happy to see his friends after so long, but Morgana did and could only smirk in amusement seeing their blushes.
"Summer's been fine, but more importantly you look much healthier now Revan," Daphne said glad her friend was no longer dead to the world.
"Yeah before you looked like a zombie, now, however, you look full of life," Tracey said bluntly giving Revan a hug when he let them onto his property.
"Trust you to be so blunt about it Tracey," Revan said amused. "Come inside and I'll tell you why I'm in a much better condition."
In the living room Revan was serving the girls drinks like a proper host should, and when everyone was comfortable, he let them ask their questions they were no doubt dying to ask.
"In your letters, you said you were in France on holiday, I take it that had something to do with your improved condition?" Daphne asked curiously.
Seeing how Tracey and Daphne were his best friends Revan decided to truthful with them. "While in France I saw a mind healer, who helped me come to terms with what happened to me over the Christmas holidays."
"It was that serious you needed to see a mind healer?" Tracey asked aghast for her friend.
"I did, I suffered from horrifying mental scars that have mostly been dealt with thanks to the mind healer I visited, though I doubt they will ever fully go away," Revan said not ashamed in the slightest telling his friends he needed help, as anyone would after being raped.
"What happened to you last year that made you suffer so much?" Daphne asked promising to herself to make sure whoever hurt her friend suffers a painful fate for their actions.
"That is something I won't tell you, as I will take what befell me to the grave with me," Revan said in a tone that made it clear that particular topic was over.
Tracey decided to move on from the awkward silence and asked something that had been on her mind for a while. "I doubt you stayed in France just for a mind healer for so long, or you would have been back by now, so tell me what caused you to stay in France for as long as you did?"
Revan blushed in embarrassment remembering what Fleur and he got up to last night. "While I was in France I got a girlfriend."
"That's wonderful tell me everything about her!" Tracey demanded excitedly wanting all the details about his relationship.
So while Revan was telling Tracey how he met Fleur including him shooting lighting at her, and how he later met her again skipping the near rape. Figuring Fleur wouldn't want anyone to know about that. Daphne was oddly quite more content to listen to what Revan was saying then asking any questions herself.
"And then I came back to Britain this morning," Revan said finishing his story about what he got up to in France. He did exclude the more frisky parts of what he got up to with Fleur, figuring they wouldn't appreciate hearing that.
"Your first girlfriend was a Veela, I bet so many boys in school will be jealous of you," Tracey said with a chuckle. "Though I must admit it was so romantic the way you two said goodbye."
"I didn't take you for such a romantic Revan," Daphne said neutrally.
"It wasn't that romantic," Revan replied embarrassed.
"Sure it wasn't," Tracey said sarcastically much to Revan's embarrassment. "Perhaps we can tell everyone in school about how romantic you are; I bet that will increase your admirers."
"Don't you dare," Revan demanded.
"I guess you'll have to wait and see," Tracey said ignoring the small pop indicating Dobby had arrived to bring new drinks.
"You know for my first house guests, you should be more respectful to me," Revan said annoyed at Tracey's teasing.
"Dobby is confused Master, these two misses aren't the first people you've had over as guests," Dobby said confused drawing everyone's attention onto himself.
"Who has he had over before Dobby?" Daphne asked curiously before Revan could say anything.
"Master had his Mistress visit before," Dobby said seeing no harm in answering her question.
"Daphne," Revan said warningly.
"Who Revan's Mistress, and how close are they with each other?" Daphne asked inquisitively as a lot of Revan's past was shrouded in mystery.
"Mistress has taught Master everything Master knows about magic, and they are very close together, as she has spent a lot of time in Masters bed," Dobby said glad to answer any of the Master's friend's questions.
Daphne and Tracey blushed thinking Revan was sleeping with his teacher, and Revan turned green in disgust. As the way, Dobby worded it made it sound like he slept with his own Mother. Morgana mirrored his own disgust at the insinuation they were having sex together. Morgana was comforting him from nightmares not sleeping with him, Dobby probably thought his answer was innocent but it was certainly not.
'Kill that dam house elf, how dare he insinuate that I would sleep with my own child!' Morgana said angry and disgusted.
"Dobby I forbid you from ever saying that again, as people will get the wrong idea from what you're saying!" Revan ordered in a disgusted tone.
"Dobby understands Master," Dobby said lowering his head in submission before teleporting away.
"So you've been sleep-"
"Never imply such a thing ever again," Revan said cutting off Tracey sounding completely revolted by what she was about to say.
"By the look on your face, I take it you find the idea of sleeping with your Mistress disgusting?" Daphne asked with a tiny bit of humour in her voice.
"Could you sleep with your Mother, because I see my Mistress as a Mother figure," Revan said feeling bile rising in his throat from this conversation. The look of utter repugnance on Tracy's and Daphne's face means they understood where he was coming from.
"Sorry I won't suggest such a thing ever again," Tracey said feeling a bit sick.
"If you see your Mistress as a Mother figure who by the way, you still haven't explained who she is to us, then why did Dobby say you were sleeping in the same bed?" Daphne asked recovering from her disgust.
"That's because I was suffering from nightmares, so my Mistress would stay with me and would comfort me when I woke up screaming, that's why she was in my bed," Revan said wanting this mattered cleared up, and then he would completely forget about ever having this conversation.
"I see that makes sense, but why haven't you ever mentioned your Mistress to us?" Daphne asked.
"That's because my Mistress wants as few people to know about her as possible, so that meant I couldn't tell anyone I was being trained by her," Revan said apologetically.
"I understand I presume that includes telling anyone her name?" Daphne asked.
"That's correct, so I would appreciate it if you didn't mention this to anyone, not even our friends," Revan said.
"We'll keep your secret no problem Revan," Tracey said.
"Thank you by the way how's your training coming along?" Revan asked.
It turns out both of them had learnt everything on the scrolls he had given them; it was the same for the rest of their friends. He'll have to test them when their back at Hogwarts, but they'll probably be Genin level. This isn't too bad seeing as they don't train all the time, and have school work at the same time.
"By the way Revan, I know you focus on other subjects more, but could you include some more weapon training like using kunai, shuriken and swords, as I'm not a ninjutsu specialist like you and I would think I would benefit more from weapon training, Goyle, Crabbe and Theo have mentioned such things to me over the summer as well," Tracey said.
"It's probably best if I start individualising each of your training to focus more on your strengths, then. Instead of giving everyone general training as I have done so far," Revan replied.
"Thanks, I would appreciate it," Tracey said as she didn't have a speciality and being trained in how to use weapons would give her an advantage in a fight, as her enemies would not expect that from a witch.
"What about you Daphne? Do you have any comments about training?" Revan asked.
"Considering I'm a ninjutsu specialist, as long as you keep teaching me new jutsus, I have no problem with my current training," Daphne said. While it might not hurt to learn how to use a weapon she would stick to her strength, which is overpowering her enemies with powerful jutsus.
"Then before we go back to Hogwarts I'll come up with individual training plans for everyone, does that sound good with you two?" Revan asked.
"Fine by me," Daphne said. If an individual training plan can make her stronger she has no complaints.
"You already know my answer," Tracey said as she didn't want to be the helpless one of her friends ever again.
The three of them chatted for a few more hours catching up on what Revan had missed over the summer before Tracey and Daphne needed to head back home. It was during dinner that a thought came to Revan's mind.
The kunai, shuriken, ninja wire and smoke bombs he had were plentiful enough at the moment, but he would go through them quickly training his friends to use them to a higher degree. He might have to go to the Leaf Village and buy a hefty amount of equipment if he wants to properly train his friends to be strong as they want to be. Well, it looks like he'll be visiting the Leaf Village tomorrow then for equipment, he can't help but wonder if anything had changed in the years since he had last been there.
However before he could leave to the Elemental Nations, he would need to leave some clones behind to hunt down Corban Yaxley. So he could have a chat with him about unleashing a Basilisk in a school full of children, and getting one of his friends petrified. It won't be a pleasant conversation for Yaxley he can promise him that.
End Chapter
So while Revan no longer looks dead to the world, the rape is still affecting him mentally. So there will be times when it's clear he's not over it when he says or does something.
Mordred was mentioned again this chapter and despite Revan and Morgana thinking she is a myth she was in fact real. I wonder what their reaction would be finding out Revan has a half-sister produced by incest.
