Hello readers and welcome to my new chapter. The first part is going to be Harry going to quidditch tryouts in America. And after that, going to the zoo. Hopefully, his trip will be more fun than the last time. But let's not get our hopes up. After all, it's Harry we're all talking about.
Also, this may be the chapter that Harry reveals his magic to Riley. If not, then the next chapter. It'll be a shock for her and her emotion. And some of you suggest that Harry and Riley find a way to talk with their emotion, so I'm thinking about it.
And two more thing. One of you guys suggested showing Sirius and Remus's emotions. I'll think about it, but not for now, I'll mainly focus on Harry and Riley. I might add Sirius, Remus, and Riley's parent's emotions in the future. Also, I saw a clip of a short film coming in November for Inside Out, Riley's First Date. I think I might add elements to that for my story, for when Harry finally ask Riley out. What do you guys think? And have you guys watches the clip?
Now, enjoy.

Secret Reveal
Harry is very nervous. It's the middle of september, the first day of fall. He's been hanging out with his surrogate family and friends during the week. And now, it's quidditch tryouts. And he's very nervous.
"Relax Harry." Katie comforted, taking his hands. "I've seen you fly before. You're a natural on a broom, better than most kids our age." She's seen him fly at one of the more secluded parks for wizards and witches, where a charm is place around the park so mundane people can't see.
In Harry's head, Fear is freaking out. "Calm down?! I can't calm down! Whenever Harry gets on a broom, something bad will always happens! Remember first year, when Harry's broom was cursed?! And second year, when a bludger tried to kill Harry?!"
The other emotions didn't bother to try to stop Fear while Affection looks a bit concerned. "Um, shouldn't we try to calm him down?" The pink emotion asked, mainly talking to Sadness.
The leader shook her head. "It's better to let him rant. Otherwise, he will explode sooner or later."
Outside of headquarters, Harry look at Katie. "I don't know Katie. As much as I love flying, I have very bad luck whenever I play quidditch." Understatement of the century. He nearly got killed twice riding a broom.
Katie squeeze his hand in comfort. "Don't worry, you aren't in Britain anymore. We are far more proficient in making sure flyers are okay. The adults put several charms on brooms, bludgers, and several other equipment in order to ensure no player gets injured."
When the most cautious emotion heard that, he calmed down greatly. "I really like the US." Fear said with a relieved smile. They actually make sure that they're people are safe, unlike the ones at Britain.
The two got to a stadium, where several other kids are at. A brown hair woman with quidditch uniform on are with those children. She locked her eyes onto Harry. Several other kids look at Harry and their eyes' widen.
"So you're Harry Potter." The woman said, her eyes flickering to his scar. Harry avoided twitching his eyes. "Many in the US know about your legend, also heard about your skill in quidditch. It's not common for an eleven year old to be a seeker, a damn good one at that."
Harry blush at the compliment, but then look confused. "Excuse me ma'am, but how do you know me?"
"A lot of people in the world knows about the boy-who-lived, the only person who survived the killing curse." She answered, crossing her arms. "Not to mention your skills in quidditch. Britain may be an isolated wizard world, the youngest seeker in the world cannot stay hidden. Now, come up here. We're about to start trials"
Harry quickly went to the field, with his Nimbus 2000 in his hand. He'll ask Katie if she knew about his fame later. Around him, he can see several kids in different ages. Once the coach saw that everyone is here in time, she started talking. "Listen up, I'm coach Nadame. I'm going to be seeing if any of you are fit to be playing quidditch. Now, I'm going to be dividing you by grade and then positions. Then, see your skills, your stamina, and other things fit for quidditch."
Harry was not surprised by the division. Katie told him about the quidditch club here in America, how kids play the league in different age group. Also the different rules about quidditch and that the bludgers aren't as the ones at Europe.
"Thank god Katie told us everything." Fear said in relief. Disgust nodded in embarrassment.
"I didn't want Harry to look like an idiot out there." Disgust replied, crossing her arms. "That'll be all kind of embarrassments." The others nodded in agreement.
"I'm going to be judging fairly. You're not going to get in, by fame or money." Harry sighed in relief. The one thing he hated was fame getting him things he didn't earn. "No, get to your station! Go!"
(An hour later)
"Wow, you were amazing Harry." Katie said in amazement. The two are walking back to Harry's home, with Harry having a huge smile. Not only because he got to fly, but because he got on the team. After showing his seeking skills, also is stamina (which is big from his daily chores at the Dursleys and his previous adventures at Hogwarts) "From where I was watching, it looked like you were born to ride that broom."
Harry blush and scratch the back of his bed in embarrassment, giving out his shy smile that would make any girl squealing. "You really think I was that good?"
"Definitely." The girl said without hesitation, linking his her hands into his. "The coach was right to pick you as seeker. No one else can compete."
In his head, Joy smile brightly. "Aww, that is sweet of her to say!" She is the main emotion that is excited that Harry joined the quidditch league. She couldn't wait for him to play the first game!
The two finally made it back Harry's house. "Well, I better get back home." Katie told him. "Need to prepare for the field trip." Tomorrow, they are going to the zoo. Harry (And Fear) are nervous at going to another zoo, but he (Joy assuring Fear) assured himself that nothing is going happen. That it wouldn't be like last time, with Dudley.
"Okay, see you Katie."
"See you Harry."
The two shared a quick hug with each other before Katie went to find a private area to portkey home while Harry walk to his house.
"This country gets better and better!" Joy exclaimed with a wide grin. "We're with our godfather, we got three friends, doing very well at a regular school, still learning wizardry, and now, playing quidditch again!"
"I have to admit, I'm liking America as well." Fear admitted. "It seems safer than the British wizard world ever was." Disgust snorted at that.
"Understatement of the century." Disgust said, remembering all the dangerous things happening to Harry. First a troll coming in the school, then facing his parent's killer. And don't get her started on second year. That was pure chaos.
Sadness look at everyone, with fear at her side. "So no one don't have complaints about the US?"
"Nope." Disgust said with a pop.
"None at all!" Joy responded cheerily.
"Better family and better friends, what not there to like?" Affection stated.
"Better than Hogwarts or Whinging." Anger answered with a shrug. Sadness smile widely at that. She is glad everyone agrees to this, cause this will be Harry's home for a while.
Harry got inside the house and into the living, to see Sirius doing some paperwork while Remus is reading the magical newspaper.
Sirius look up when he heard Harry come in and smiled. "Hello pup, how was the tryouts?"
Harry grin. "I got into the quidditch club." Sirius whoop and grabbed Harry in a hug, causing the boy to laugh.
"And you're going to show these american how you fly!" Sirius cheered, causing Harry to laugh while Remus shook his head with a fond smile.
Joy sigh fondly. "It's nice to see Harry like this, having a guardian hug him when he tells him good news." That was one of the things she dreamed of happening for Harry. And now that wish came true.
"Okay, okay, put me down Sirius." Harry laughed, and after a few seconds, Sirius finally put him down. Remus smile at the two and then went back to his newspaper, sipping the tea Dobby made for them. He promptly spit it out when he read the headline.
Sirius and Harry turn to him when they saw the spit take. "What is it Moony?" Sirius asked in concern. Remus didn't say anything, merely gave the paper. Sirius eyes bulged when he read the paper, then slowly formed a very scary scowl on his face that cause to step back in fear. "That stubborn old fool!"
In Harry's head,fear Freaked out once again. "Oh no, loud noises! Get back, get back!" He practically jumped at the consoles and pull the lever back, causing Harry to recoil and step back from Sirius. Whenever there's loud noises, he would always recoil away from the one making the sound. For him, it's a sign that he is about to be punished badly.
Sirius saw this and his eyes soften. "Sorry about that pup." Sirius said softly, knowing why Harry recoiled. He didn't went to comfort Harry, something the boy is grateful for. Whenever someone tries to touch him after loud noises, he would always try to escape. Instead, Sirius handed him the paper. "I'm just angry about this." Harry took the paper and read it. The more he reads, the more angry he becomes. The headline was read BRITISH DEMANDING FOR A CHILD AND ADULT. Apparently, Dumbledore and the British Minister of Magic has demanded for him and Sirius. But the US Minister told them no, that they are citizens of Britain and that they aren't going to force two people to go in another country when they've done no wrong.
When Fudge try to point out the crimes Sirius was trialed for, the Minister told them that they had done their own trial and found out that Sirius is innocent. Fudge and Dumbledore still try to get them to reveal their location, which the Minister responded by having his aurors point their wands at them, warning them to leave. They reluctantly, but not without Dumbledore telling them that they will get Harry Potter back and have Sirius back to Azkaban.
In his head, Anger started heating up. "Those lousy, stuck up, wizards! How do they have a right to decide where Harry should at?!" He smash his fist at the console, glaring at the newspaper. "So that how they want to play it?! Making Britain a prison for me?! Well, we will go back, right after WE'RE A CORPSE ON THE COLD COLD GROUND!" And in an instant, he pulled the two levers and pull them up with a blood rage screamed, fire bursting from his head.
Harry shook in anger, subconsciously pouring magic out of his body. The newspaper slowly burned in his hand while the room starting to shake. Both Sirius and Remus's eyes widen in surprise at the magic pouring out of him.
"Hey!" Sirius shouted, but the boy didn't hear. "Harry, stop it! Stop it now!"
"Anger!" Sadness shouted, with her and fear trying to pull him off. "Stop it, you're going to destroy the house!" The red emotion didn't stop, merely press on even more. Joy, Affection, and Disgust quickly joined them and with one big pull, they manage to pry Anger off of the console.
"Get off of me, let me show what you do when you mess with Harry!" Anger shouted in outrage. Fear quickly got some duck tape and rapidly ducked tape Anger on the ground.
"That should hold him until he calms down." Fear said as Anger struggle against the duck tape. Meanwhile, Sadness and Joy quickly pull the lever down to calm him down.
Slowly, Harry stopped pouring out magic and started breathing in and out to calm himself. When he finally calmed down, Sirius got in front in front him, on his eye level.
"Listen Harry, I know you're angry, but don't lose control." Sirius told him. "Getting angry like that isn't going to help. Take this from the guy who got into Azkaban for letting his anger control him."
Harry took another deep breath. Sirius is right, he can't let his anger control him. It'll lead him into trouble and he got enough trouble as it is. "So what are we going to do?" Harry asked calmly.
This time, Remus spoke. "Don't worry Harry, we'll talk with the minister about this through our cellphones." He and Sirius got the device when they heard about it and gave one to Harry for his birthday. "For now though, go prepare for the fieldtrip and then get some sleep. Don't wanna be sleepy while going to zoo."
(San Francisco Zoo)
Harry's trip to the zoo is much better than the one from Britain.
It seem much more fun and lively, mostly because he's with other children that won't bully him. He got better looks at the animals there, also, tried out some treats there. Something he didn't get to do at his last trip to the zoo, unless he count a lemon ice pop Vernon force him to get counts as a treat.
Riley smile fondly as Harry watching a shark swimming around in awe. Ever since they got to the zoo, Harry been watching everything with childish glee, something she thought is cute. She wonder if Harry ever went to a zoo before, cause it didn't look like he did.
Right now, she is with Harry, Katie, and Allie. The teachers let the kids separate for a bit, so she and her small group of friends went to the aquarium.
"Oh, that is so cute!" Affection squealed, twirling around. "I liking this boy more and more by the day!" Disgust roll her eyes, but has a hint of a smile. Although she's still suspicious about Harry, the boy grown on her as well. The others finally manage to drill in her head that cooties didn't exist, so she isn't against Riley being with Harry anymore. But Harry still didn't have her full approval yet either.
Joy nodded in agreement with her fellow emotion. "Yeah, the way his eyes lit up every time we see another animal." The two of them are on the console, with the others behind them.
"But it does make you wonder if he ever went to a zoo." Sadness said, looking down. "It'll be sad if he never did."
"Harry never really do a lot of things." Disgust remarked, crossing her arms. "Never played soccer, never tasted pizza, never watch a movie. It's all kind of weird."
"We shouldn't judge based on what he didn't do Disgust." Joy chided him, still looking at the screen. "Let just look at this as a new experience for Harry."
"Yeah, a thirteen year old first trip to zoo." Disgust said sarcastically, rolling her eyes. "You do realize how bad that sound, right?" Joy ignored her, content on watching the screen. Right now, the four are out of the aquarium and are walking around.
"So where to next?" Allie asked, her hands behind her back. Harry was about to suggest something when someone bumped into him, knocking his glasses off. That someone was Matthew, who quickly stepped on his glasses.
"Whoops." Matthew said, smirking at them before walking head.
"What the-?" Riley's Anger said before he got angry. "Did you guy see that?! He did that on purpose! He did it!" He press his hands on the console and then pointed one of them at the screen. "Hey buddy, why don't come here and get a piece of me?!" He raised his fist and banged on the console, causing Riley to fill with Anger.
"Hey, what is your problem you-?!" Riley started, but stopped when Harry grabbed her hands to stop her from going after Matthew.
"Don't Riley, it's not worth getting in trouble." Harry warned. Riley sighed, before backing away and stop from chasing after the bully. Harry picked up his glasses and sighed. "Sadly, this isn't the first time it happened. I going to the tape this up, as well as throw away any broken glass."
"I'll keep you company." Katie volunteered, grabbing Harry's hand. Riley's eyes narrowed as she saw the two left, looking at their linked hands.
Disgust narrow her eyes. "What's up with them? Those two been spending a lot of time together." She cross her arms. Despite Harry not having her full approval, she doesn't want any rivals to ruin Riley's chance to be with someone. "Do you think they're doing something?"
"Come on, Disgust, don't be so paranoid." Joy said with a dismissive wave. "Katie is just being nice. She knows that Riley like Harry and wouldn't do anything to ruin our chance with him."
"We should still keep an eye on them." Anger said with a scowl. "See if they're doing anything." Joy sighed, but listen to the others. At least, it'll keep their mouth shut about Katie being with Harry.
Riley started walking to Harry and Katie's direction, causing Allie to call out to her. "Wait Riley, where are you going?" Allie asked. Riley stopped and smile at her friend.
"Oh, I'm just going to the bathroom." Riley lied. "Be right back." She quickly jogged, not wanting Allie to question her more. When she saw Harry and Katie, she quickly hid under a trash can.
She saw Harry examine his glasses before pulling out a stick. "Could you hold the glasses for me?" Harry asked Katie.
"Sure thing." Katie responded, taking the glasses from him and holding them out. Harry held out the small glass shards, along with a stick on his other hand. Katie's eyebrows furrowed. Why would he need a stick?
Then she was beyond shock when saw what happened next. "Wingardium Leviosa" She heard Harry say before the shards suddenly fell back into the glasses. Then she heard Harry say "Oculus Reparo" and saw the glasses automatically fix.
Her eyes widen dramatically, as did the emotions in her head.
"O.M.G. Did he just use magic?!" Disgust exclaimed in shock. The others nodded slowly, as shock as Disgust.
"Great job Harry. You're a natural at this." Katie said, causing Harry to blush.
He shrugged. "I doubt it's that impressive. Those were first years spells, I bet others can do this."
"But don't forget that you need concentration to keep up with the levitation spell." Katie reminded. "Levitating several of those glass at once, along with doing the repair spell with wandless magic, it's impressive for our age." Harry blush even more a the praise.
Meanwhile, Riley is thinking about what she saw. Harry can use magic? How is that possible? She never thought magic exist. Wait a minute, is Katie a wizard as well? Before she could think any further, she suddenly felt the trash can falling.
Fear gasped. "Oh crap, we need to stop it!" He grab the controls and got Riley to try and grab the the trash, but it was too late. The trash fell down, causing Harry and Katie to look a the direction of where Riley is at.
The three stare at each other, Harry and Katie in shock while Riley has a deer caught in the headlight look. In her head, Disgust uttered two words that all the other emotions are thinking.
"Oh crap."
And that's the end. I hope you guys liked the chapter. And so Riley finally found out about Harry's abilities. What do you think? Should I have done another way to reveal Harry's magic? Or was this good? In the next chapter, there will be an interesting conversation between the three.
Review, favorite, and follow and I will see you guys later.
