Chapter 13-Spells are broken, Dumbledore Bashing the return
As soon as Dumbledore called out the name of: Harry Potter, he felt everyone of his memory charms he had placed on the Potter family break and began to sweat bullets, 'Shit! That blasted boy found them! HOW?' he thought, but he was unable to calm himself before more information made him sweat cannon balls, as the Mudblood Granger stood up and declared, "I Hermione Jean Granger-Potter, one of the Soul Bonded wives of Harry James Potter, take the position of Harry Potter, until such time as he arrives," then the crowd in the Hall gasped as the Goblet of Fire flared up and the words: [Declaration Excepted, So mote it be.]
In London, the reunited Potter family was in an embrace, after James and Lily had broken the memory enchantments on themselves, before Harry then flinched back in anger and Lily asked, "What is wrong honey?" to which Harry said, "I now know why Dumbledore was offering me an apprenticeship!" in a state of calm fury, puzzled James asked, "Why?" Harry's answer was, "He restarted the Triwizard Tournament and my name came out of the impartial selector!" getting a gasp from Lily, who had put the pieces together and said, "He has some sort of plans with the tournament doesn't he?" getting a nod from Harry and a confused look from James.
An hour later, in the village of Hogsmeade, a large ball of magma burst from the ground and split into three human like figures, once formed the lava congealed of morphed into the appearances of: Harry, James and Lily Potter. Once fully morphed, Harry then led them down to the road to Hogwarts knowing the way from when he had visited his girls on Hogsmeade weekends and soon they arrived at a suspiciously open front gate of the Hogwarts. Entering the school, the Potter Family headed for the Great Hall.
Earlier in the Great Hall, the three selected Champions had been returned to the hall and had been advise on the turn of events, this was met with varying states of confusion, especially when Harry's spokesperson: Hermione had informed them that Harry had been expelled for the use of battle Magic against a Horror that had possessed his relatives, so they could be rid of Harry and knowing what a Horror was, both: Madam Maxine and Highmaster Karkaroff stood there in wonder. It was at this time that the doors opened and revealed not only: Harry Potter, but the appearance of James and Lily Potter.
After the Potter Families entry, that Hogwarts teachers all made for their wands, but once they had retrieved them, Harry had raised a powerful shield around them all and said, "Don't worry, they are whom they look like and they were never dead it would seem," confusing the hell out everyone, but Dumbledore who now was a ghostly silver, not because of what Harry had said, but the energy that his shield was giving off, as it was so pure and heavenly that it was repulsive to him. 30 minutes later, the teachers calm down and with the help of veritaserum, the 2 ministry officials were satisfied that James and Lily were telling the truth, of who they were.
This also led to other questions, questions that could only be answered by: Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, but the look on the man's face said: [I am not talking or am consenting to veritaserum] so it was a lost cause, but it doesn't mean that Dumbledore is off the hook and ministry officials had told him, "Headmaster, if you act irresponsible during the duration of the Tournament, we will cancel the tournament and declare a tie, and to keep your interactions with the champions at a minimum, you will have no say in what we plan for the champions," leaving no room to argue.
2 days after the champion selections, with Harry being forced to stay in Hogwarts and much to his ire, told to attend the classes with the rest of the fourth year, even after providing evidence of his masteries and other completed education he done, to his parents and Hogwarts staff, but his father states stubbornly, "Hogwarts is the best for magical education in the world," in an idiotic tone of voice, like he is saying the words of another man (which was true: Dumbledore had secretly met with James, a day ago and with the help of a suggestion potion, got him to agree with having continue his Hogwarts education) while his mother simply swooned over his grades and told him, "I proud of you my son," before looking at her husband and said to Harry, "Don't worry him, I should be able to get threw to him and make him see reason."
The days then turned into a week, as it became apparent to the Hogwarts Staff, that Harry was too knowledgeable in each subject he had applied for: Charms, Transfiguration, Potions (albeit reluctantly), History, Care of Magical Creatures, Ancient Runes, Arithmacy Defense Against the Dark Arts, which was stated by the: Outstandingly Exceeds Expectations on each and every single test, assignment and examination, but when they went to promote his early graduation Dumbledore rebuttaled and threatened all of their jobs bar that of the Potions Master (Because of his plans). With their jobs threatened, the staff simply let Harry off of class and allowed him to play hooky, providing he does not get caught by: Dumbledore. As the staff had excused him from his 'classes', Harry spent his time most in the unpopulated portions of the school, manly abandoned classrooms and workshops, Dumbledore had decommissioned so the students wouldn't become more powerful than himself (in his head) and one of his favorite hangout spots was a blacksmith forge, which was still in working shape but a little dusty.
After finding the Blacksmith forge, Harry met with: Professor McGonagall, Professor Sprout, Professor Flitwick and Professor Snape, to gain written permission to use the room and they accepted, even Snape as it meant that Harry has a less likely chance of been caught and been forced back into his class, and the signatures of three Head teachers and the Deputy Headmistress can override the Headmaster (plus McGonagall, Sprout and Flitwick were thinking of revenge). With the okay from the teachers, Harry immediately set to work and cleaned up all of the dust and restocked the charcoal within the forge and de-rusts the anvils.
Harry's housework was completed 10 minutes before lunch was due, so closing the door he headed for the great hall and joined the lunchtime traffic. Within the office of the Headmaster, the 'owner' stared annoyed at the application form that was just handed to him by his Deputy 10 minutes ago, which stated permission for Harry to use a weirdly still functioning forge he had decommissioned during Harry's free periods (barring any assignments) and weekends (again barring Hogsmeade weekends). As he looks it over, Dumbledore could not find any loop holes to say he couldn't and with the signatures of his head staff, his say gets overruled.
During lunch, Harry notices the looks he had been getting from his parents and the appearance of Dumbledore, the latter of which look more haggard and annoyed than usual, but Harry shrugged off Dumbledore appearance and labeled it as another failed attempt put his broken nose back into the tournament, so he could get close to him. Lunch went by quickly and Harry then left the Hall, for the forge unaware that his parents had followed him.
Once back at the forge, Harry lit the forge with a cast of, "Incendio," to get it hot and while it was, he unrolled a scroll revealing a rune array and placed his wand into the center of the array and enchanted, "Reseranda," making the runes glow and expand, before it turned into a pallet of: metal bars of varying metals, tools, wood and leather. After unsealing the supplies, Harry returned his attention the forge and found the coals were now glow a dull cherry red, so Harry then cast a spell on the bellows and started the circulation of air to get it to forging temptures.
Outside the door to the forge, James and Lily watched as Harry expertly handled the forge, as he shove a silver colored ingot into the forge and several long minutes later, Harry removed the now glowing bar and moved to an anvil. At the anvil, Harry takes a hammer and sets a rhythm, to strike and begins to shape the metal, after 2 more heat cycles, the ingot had been turned into a sheet of metal and Harry clamped it in the provided bench vice, where drew out a jewelers hacksaw and cut out several petal shapes.
Once the last of the petals were cut out, Harry curled the remaining silver into a ball and dropped it into a metal melting furnace, he had prepared during one of the earlier heats. Harry then poured the metal into an ingot tray and then used a hand crank rolling mill to turn it into wire. Once it was turned into wire, Harry setup a jig that once Harry had threaded the wire, then spun and twisted the wire into a braid.
Then Harry coiled the braided wire, before he began to solder and form the rose, finishing his project, Harry then retrieved 3 buckets of metal bar and used a work bench to stack an alternating layer billet pattern, with he then welded them together to assist in the forge welding. Sticking the billet in the fire, Harry then calls out, "If you want to come in you can."
