Disclaimer: Dumbledore walks forwards and glares down at me "Mr Blade, you own nothing in this world"

I glare right back and punch him in the gut then knee him in the head as he doubles over "I own the plot you moron, now, kneel to your Master"

Dumbledore grumbles "yes Master, right away Master"

I pat his head mockingly "good puppy"

Year Three:

Chapter Three:

Letters. Tonks. Sirius Black is back.

"Fortune favours the bold, the knowledgeable and the imbeciles who manage to screw with everything else"

Personal modification of old quote.

--------------------------------------------

Harry looked down at the letter that he had received from Tonks, his pen-pal, she had written that she had taken the tests for being a Hit-Witch and had scored in the top five, thanking him immensely, reading the letter again he sighed, letting it drop to the cold stone floor.

Dear Harry,

Guess What? I passed the exams! I couldn't have done it without you.

I placed second in the exams, beaten only by a Wizard who used to be an Auror before moving up to Hit-Wizard status, anyway, I wanted to tell you that I have my first assignment.

It's you lover boy!

I am to act as your bodyguard until Sirius Black is captured or killed, I should be over within a week, and my commander wants to meet with you to discuss your security plans and safety.

I know, terrible, but hey, at least you and I get to go on that date to Hogsmeade you promised me!

I am still waiting for my birthday present as well you idiot! And I don't want some half-baked excuse that you forgot.

Anyway, I heard that you and Hermione Granger are engaged, is this right? I am so going envious of her; she gets the man of my dreams, and someone who can really please me as well with certain spell.

Hey, I also found this nifty little Charm called Occular Refracto, apparently it makes you invisible, when my Commander asked me to perform it, I just told him that he could shove that Charm where the sun don't shine and stripped butt naked like you taught me, blending in with the surroundings by using my Metamorphmagus abilities.

The Commander seems to have some sort of overly large wand up his ass, he was not very happy about it.

So, we found out something, you got a daughter, or is that sister? When can I meet her? You had better not be nasty to her, if you are, I will castrate you and feed your nuts to the Werewolves.

But yeah, I am going to be coming over in the next week or so to supposedly guard you, I am supposed to be a student in your year, funny that, they seem to think that I am the best person for the job, probably because I am taking the body of a male student in your year thanks to my Metamorphmagus abilities, who would have thought?

Please note the sarcasm in that.

Anyway, here's hoping that you don't get too tetchy when you see me.

With all my love (don't make that face Harry),

N. Tonks.

Harry sighed and conjured a piece of parchment in the cold stone Owlery, pulling out some ink and a quill, he started to write a letter to Gringotts.

To Whom It May Concern,

I wish to close all but my personal Trust Fund which will have further restricted monetary access, I wish for no more than one hundred Galleons placed inside due to the new laws passed, all my family vaults are to be closed to all but myself, any and all information it to be restricted to be allowed only by myself in person.

Please send proper emancipation letters within the next three days, this is of the utmost importance, I also require that my apartment in Diagon Alley, the Leaky Cauldron, be paid for permanent housing, my cottage in Hogsmeade must be the only house shown to anyone who wishes to see Potter land, anything else must be kept secret.

As to my Headship of the families, they are to remain secret, anything bar Potter family Headship is to be kept secret, in doing this, you ensure that my finance continues in your services, be warned, you tell anyone about anything else pertaining to my vaults, properties, possessions, anything at all, and your bank will lose it's largest financial investor for three thousand years.

Sincerely,

Lord Baron Harry James Black-Grindewald-Ravenclaw-Slytherin-Gryffindor-Potter the first.

P.S. I am enclosing a drop of blood on the parchment along with my family shields as proof of identification.

Harry elongated his teeth thanks to his Metamorphmagus abilities and let three drops of blood fall down onto the parchment at the end of his name, healing it with a thought, he conjured some drops of wax and watched them fall onto the parchment, smirking, he conjured ribbons and placed more wax over the top of the ribbons to hold them tight, pressing each ring down so he could seal it as his being Head of the family.

Sealing it with a small blast of magic, he tied it up and sealed it with a wax shield that would break only for a Goblin, turning his chair and desk into dust with a wave of his hand as he stood up, he changed into a large black phoenix with blank white eyes, Harry gave a small trill of music and clutched the parchment into his claws, thinking on the main lobby of Gringotts, he burst into black and silver flames.

Arriving in Gringotts, startling the people around the bank, Harry screeched loudly and beat his wings methodically, turning his head this way and that, screeching again, he burst into flame and appeared on the desk of the Head Goblin, screeching to get his attention, Harry held up a leg, claws clenching the letter, the Goblin took it and nodded before placing it against a scanner of some sort.

Harry trilled when he saw the Goblin pull out the emancipation papers and the papers to lock down his vaults for his own use, Harry clutched them in his claws and burst into flames, appearing in his room at the Leaky Cauldron, settling himself on his bed, he changed back into his normal body and looked at the parchment and the Blood Quill set up, grinning like a mad man, he quickly signed the parchments, contracts, everything, knowing that they were beneficial to him, grinning maniacally, Harry changed back into the black Phoenix and burst into flames, clutching the parchment and contracts in his claws, landing on the desk next to the Head Goblin who breathed a sigh of relief at having kept one of the largest benefactors the bank has had since Nicholas Flamel had closed his vault, moving away, taking the last two Philosophers Stones with him, the third one being destroyed by that barmy old fool Dumbledore.

Harry trilled as he sensed these emotions and hopped from side to side, gleefully trilling in a childish manner, the Goblin gave a wry grin and said softly "tell your Master that we would be glad to accept him as a friend"

Harry trilled then tried his Legimancy on the Goblin, surprised that he found a large void before slamming into a large barrier, caressing it with his mind, he sent the image of his Phoenix body to him and watched the shield fall down slightly "I, on behalf of Harry Potter, thank you for your generosity and hope for good relations in the future, may your gold flow freely and your enemies cower beneath your might" he said respectfully before pulling out.

The Goblin smiled wryly "indeed, I am most curious as to why many customers were here today about their emancipation"

Just then, Dumbledore appeared, followed by twenty Auror's, ten Unspeakable's and ten Hit-Wizards and Witches, Harry glowered at Dumbledore and trilled a note of warning to the Goblin who caught his meaning, Dumbledore walked to the middle of the room and stated clearly and imperiously "by order of the Ministry of Magic, the Wizengamont and the International Confederation of Wizards, all here are ordered to lower their wands and submit to a search, any being or animal currently here is ordered to stand down and wait for instruction"

Harry blinked then gave a shrill trill, Dumbledore glared at the black Phoenix as it glared at him right back, Dumbledore watched the wands get summoned and the people searched with spells, Potions and instruments to find any discrepancies in their identities, Harry smugly flamed right next to Dumbledore and left a small gift for him on his head, trilling in laughter, he fluttered back to a desk and promptly collapsed into a fitful laugh as everyone tried to hide their snickers at the disgruntled Dumbledore "search that Phoenix! Now!" Dumbledore yelled.

Harry trilled and flew into the air, trilling in laughter as spells attempted to hit him, trilling in glee, he breathed in through his beak then blew out harshly, a black fireball flowing from his mouth and quickly moving forwards, everyone tried sending up spells to stop the fireball but that only fuelled it as it slammed into the ground, a wave of heat flowing from the impact site that knocked almost everyone unconscious, trilling as Dumbledore glared up, he settled himself on one of the bracers on the ceiling and trilled delightedly, laughter evident in his tone, Dumbledore shot a Severing Curse at Harry which clipped his wing and sent him sprawling to the floor, Harry gave a shrill and angry shriek of disdain and watched as Dumbledore walked forwards, Dumbledore shot him with an Animagus Reversal Charm which hit him, he felt his insides churn but he stayed the same, Dumbledore growled "you are Potter's Phoenix, aren't you?"

Harry gave a weak trill on acknowledgement, Dumbledore glared at him and pointed his wand at the Phoenix "Avada Kedavra" he said in a monotone.

Harry burst into flames just before the spell hit and appeared in the middle of the air, trilling shrilly, Harry started warping and moving, his bones cracking, his muscles changing rapidly as he tried to grip a certain Dementor body, grasping it, he gave a wickedly evil trill that made many people flinch as he changed into his Dementor body, he let loose his full Dementor abilities and watched Dumbledore cringe while everyone else fainted, swooned or screeched in horror, the Goblins shuddering at the sheer strength of power that he had over them, landing on the floor, his feet leaving ice where he stepped, cracks crisscrossing the stone floor, Harry smirked from his kneeling position, his head lowered as he changed his appearance and shadowed his face as long and flowing black robes appeared on his body from the dark blood red that he had before, standing up, he smirked as Dumbledore took a step backwards "I suggest you tell your companions to lower their wands, and while at it, you should do the same" he said in the deep and rattling tone that sent shivers down everyone's spines.

Dumbledore shook his head and raised his wand and roared out "Expecto Patronum!"

Harry looked at the large bison that shot from his wand, shaking his head, he vanished in a wisp of black smoke and a swirl of black robes, appearing in the middle of the room next to Dumbledore, placing his hand on Dumbledore's chest, he pushed him down and smirked when he fell on his ass "insignificant buffoon" he murmured, mirth laced in his voice.

Dumbledore stood up shakily, clasping his chest painfully as if he had tainted him, which was partially what he did, he just placed a small amount of Dementor essence into his body that would chill him to the bones whenever he went against Harry "who are you?" Dumbledore questioned with a raspy voice.

Harry smirked and lowered his hood to show cold, blank white eyes "I am someone who you need not concern yourself with mortal"

Dumbledore's eyes widened and he whispered harshly "Gladius Herule, the First Dementor"

Harry smirked and gave a mocking bow, knowing that the remains of the First Dementor were in Azkaban, jars upon jars of the blood from his dried up body which was shackled and bound in chains set up along the wall where he got his Dementor blood from "a pleasure and a half, you Half-Blood cretin' he said mockingly.

Dumbledore went a deep fuchsia in anger and roared out as he waved his wand in fury and rage, his body shaking horribly "I AM DUMBLEDORE YOU FOUL BEAST, HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT, YOU ARE A MOCKERY OF NATURE!"

Harry rolled his eyes and wandlessly summoned a wand to him, the room blasting into shadows at this, so he could mask the wand coming to him, clasping his hand around the wand, he smirked as he felt a slight connection as he dropped the shadows around the entire area, suppressing his abilities, thinking back on the words he had heard before he had come here.

"You will have your magic, your blood and your knowledge, you far exceed any of which I can give to you, but remember this, use your resources wisely, they can be a hindrance or a blessing, welcome to your second chance at life Harry Potter, this is more than many others will get"

Sighing as Dumbledore sent a spell at him, he stepped aside and bulked up his muscles with his Metamorphmagus abilities, opened his magical pathways to their fullest and broke open the first barrier to the cage he had formed around his magic, allowing him to access more power easily, sending a quick Shadow Chain Curse which bound the person in cold black steel chains, he watched in interest as Dumbledore responded by forming a barrier of pure light with a quick flick of his wand, Harry growled and started walking forwards, sending a special Curse he had made just for Voldemort, Conjuring a black human skull and banishing it with one simple incantation which he whispered "Skullus reperandum"

Dumbledore sent an Explosion Hex at the skull which shattered into pieces, the shards flying everywhere, stopped only by Harry's wide spread Banishing Curse "Flauxen shiva!" Dumbledore shouted.

A large grey beam of light shot towards him that Harry deflected with a muttered "Umbra proto mortor"

Harry continued walking forwards; Dumbledore backing out of the bank in order to gain more ground "Shiva Juukun!" Dumbledore shouted.

Two grey/silver beams shot at him and Harry slashed the wand downward, a red flash of magic sending the two parallel spells into the walls of the bank, Harry then slashed his wand upwards and shouted "Necros Umbra! Tundra illupi mortis!"

The ground cracked and a few hands pushed away the cracked pavement as five rotting corpses pushed their way out of the ground, covered in shadows and darkness, Dumbledore stared at the corpses with wide eyes and screamed "Fractus inflammarra! Juukor! Kuul! Jurparre! Saabitai! Shiva explodra!"

Harry's eyes widened at the spells, but only slightly, they were Dark Arts of some of the highest order, and they were some of the more dangerous spells as was proven when the first spell hit, the bones in the body being crushed and set on fire simultaneously, the second spell causing the entire corpse to explode in a shower of blood, gore and other bodily matter, the third spell slammed into the next corpse, earning it's incantation name as the Culling Curse, tearing the body to shreds like it was shoved in a blender, the fourth spell missing and hitting a civilian whose eyes exploded and blood coming out of the ears, the stomach becoming bloated as the internal organs exploded within the body.

Dodging the fifth spell, he looked at the effects on the cauldron it hit which promptly compacted down into a small ball of iron, Harry had to hand it to the fool, using household Cleaning Charms was a good idea, too bad Harry knew the more distracting and destructive spells that came with it, the last spell slammed into the second last corpse he had summoned which was promptly removed of all appendages and exploding on the floor in a destructive wave of blood, the limbless corpse exploding and sending gore around the street, covering the area in a dark red mass "Glupor hul" Harry whispered, the Floor Cleaning Charm sending liquid soap all along the floor.

Smirking as Dumbledore tried to keep his footing, Harry whispered "Sexus lubris maxima"

A clear sheen spread across the floor that made taking a foothold on the floor even more difficult, the Lubrication Charm more commonly used for the buggery of women (and men) covering the floor, Dumbledore pointed his wand at the floor and shouted "Incendio!"

Harry laughed as floor sizzled for a bit but remained covered in the clear sheen of lubricant, slashing his wand upwards then moving it in a crescent moon shape in an anti-clockwise manner, he muttered "Iclimia flurina"

A jet of white mass shot from his wand and covered the floor, the frosty air solidifying the lubricant into a miniature ice skating rink, smirking even more as Dumbledore shouted "Incama sudos!" the Shattering Hex slamming into the floor at his own feet.

Harry quickly moved onto the strangely blue ice, parts shimmering up in bubbles that would cut into flesh if broken, smirking at the idea, he cast a few Explosion Hexes at the ice bubbles that cut into Dumbledore's face making him scream, Harry quickly kneeled down and Conjured a few stones which he Enchanted to become small stone golems armed with mini stone swords "attack my enemy" he whispered harshly, they saluted and started charging at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore sent a Bowel Exploding Curse at Harry who dove to the side as the Curse came his way, thinking quickly, Harry sent a few simple Stunners at Dumbledore to regain his footing before he opened the next to barriers to his magic, the power flooding his body, diving to the side and sending up a shield as a lance of fire shot at him, he quickly evaluated his situation "shit," he muttered darkly to himself "I need to find the weakness in his attack and defence"

Dumbledore sent a flock of quickly Conjured crows at him which Harry responded with a quick shower of acid, spraying the area with green liquid, standing up, Harry slapped the wand into his hand then waved it over his head as a stream of gold was connected to his hand, smirking at Dumbledore's surprised look, Harry shouted "Snarberir reecor!" the golden stream leaving his hand and shooting towards him, spreading out into a net of molten gold.

Dumbledore waved his wand and performed Cooling Charm on the deathly net and sent an Explosion Hex at it causing the shards to fly everywhere, one slamming into the side of Harry's gut, another into his leg, one hitting Dumbledore in the left thigh, another slamming into his shoulder "Arcura!" they both shouted, the shards vanishing and the wounds being healed temporarily.

Harry stepped aside as a crimson beam shot his way, sending up a shield of stone as a blue spell came his way, waving his wand as the rock shield was blown away, Harry cried out "Argentum!"

A stream of liquid hot silver shot at Dumbledore and splashed against his right leg and hip, tearing away the lavender purple robes he was wearing "Accio glasses!" Harry shouted again, the half moon glasses coming towards him.

Harry muttered a Shattering Hex at the glasses and sent the shards back at Dumbledore who was hit in the chest by the glass shards, Dumbledore cried out in pain but quickly turned it into "Arugur friga nuyo!"

Harry shifted to the side as the Flesh Ripping and Burning Curse shot forwards, sending up a quick Reflection Charm which made the spell shoot back at Dumbledore "getting tired yet old man?" Harry yelled out in a mocking tone.

Dumbledore looked up and quickly waved his wand, breathing heavily "not much young sir" he said lightly.

Harry grinned inwardly, Dumbledore was stalling for time, probably trying to open the cages or chains or whatever he used to bind his magic down to an acceptable level "you are weak old man, nothing substitutes for power!" he shouted out.

Dumbledore gave a half-hearted smile "and yet I have experience and can hold you off at quarter power" he said in an amused voice.

Harry raised a pale eyebrow "how about you lay all your power on me old man? I want to see what you really have"

Dumbledore arched an eyebrow, Harry smirked, knowing he would never do such a thing because it rapidly tired out people, Harry could hold it even longer because he had at least a dozen pools of magic within him thanks to his Potions, sure, his human magical stores would be wiped out for a while, but he could drag out his Dragon and Veela magic for use, even his Elvish and Dementor Magic could be brought out and Dumbledore would be trashed if Harry opened all his magical pools, the cages preventing excess power coming through were immense with him, most people had maybe three or four barriers against their magic, Merlin himself had eighty seven, Harry has twenty six in his human magic, about nine on his other pools of magic, Dumbledore only had twenty three barriers in his magic, Voldemort, through all his Rituals, had twenty nine barriers and had many Rituals done by sacrifice in blood of others, of innocents, that increased his magical durability and his magical replenishment, it was one of the few Rituals that he had not done that required his body or blood as part of a sacrifice or ingredient to increase his power, adamantly, Harry was thinking on using a few Rituals that would increase his body strength, but one thing that was really disturbing was that he would be vulnerable at the restoration period during the Rituals he wanted to do.

Shaken from his musings by Dumbledore, who replied steadily "I am afraid I might hurt you if I released all my power sir"

Harry gave a small, cold laugh "you, hurt me? Even if you managed to actually injure me permanently, I could remove the item you injured and heal it instantly"

Dumbledore gazed an him and said "and what about your power then sir? Surely you have some power enough to do something to me?"

Harry grinned insanely and shrugged off his robes leaving his bare, pale white chest gleaming in the sun, his black pants seemingly sucking in the light around him, a malicious glint in his eyes and Harry waved the wand and gripped it tightly, vines of wood shooting from within his fingers, spiralling around and changing rapidly, forming into a large staff of black wood, the chanting got louder and louder as he started waving the wand now staff started shimmering with power, Dumbledore's eyes widened as he felt the magic in the air and started chanting himself, hurriedly making Runes with his primary wand, his secondary wand being whipped out and forming into a staff. Both chanting rapidly, a race for who would finish first, the crowd recoiled at the serious levels of magic that were being displayed, Aurors appeared only to be sent flying through the air as the magic started pulsing and beating like a human heart from each of them, their chanting becoming heavier in magic and louder, booming into the otherwise silent street. Dumbledore rapidly spoke the Fire Demon Summoning Chant, hoping to whatever deity there was that he would finish first, trying to control the fierce magical waves that his now fully unlocked magical core was producing. Harry mentally shook his head as he chanted, summoning a Shadow Fire Demon, a purely destructive force that he could control with a single thought, ten times more powerful than the pitiful Fire Demon Chant that Dumbledore was doing "Unagi ubra ushra neboc vetobe hube siba furega chimea kulev Indimatri velorean" he chanted the last line, black Runes forming into a glowing, pulsing circle as he finished the ninth verse in his twenty seven verse long chant.

People recoiled at the power that Harry was showing, Dumbledore's power becoming more prominent, showing exactly why he was considered the most powerful Wizard in the world, but the new person was pulsing out just as much power and was chanting just as fast, the power rolling off the booming words of power that he chanted with "Frigan ludorus mocretor cronor Birigan genima ibitu soleb" Dumbledore chanted, slamming his staff on the floor while writing Runes, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead as he rode the power that he sent off, the Runes forming a circle on the floor.

Harry groaned mentally 'damnit! The asshole is summoning a High Fire Demon! This is bad! I have to step this up a notch' he thought in a panicked tone, but he was also excited, he would finally see how good he was at summoning while under stress.

Unlocking three gates to his power, he channelled it into the staff and continued chanting, his mind all the time focussing on this duel of power, a true Scion's Duel, a duel that had not been seen in five hundred years, power rolling off each of the opponents in tidal waves, a storm of magic, pulsing at a rapid pace, many people running to a safe distance, shop owners shrinking their produce and running away, Ministry workers sending up massive wards, trying to keep the battle hidden from Muggles, everyone afraid of the power shown by these two titans of magic, Harry finished his chant quickly, the last verse rolling off his toung as he slammed down his staff, the ground in the large circle cracking, forming a small crater as it compacted down into the ground, the stone breaking away as a large hand of blackness that flared up like fire appeared, pushing itself off the ground, Harry on its shoulder, a twelve foot tall Demon arose from the ground, black horns glittering in the light, flaming black voids for eyes burning with the dark red and orange flames that otherwise covered the shadow underneath, toungs of black flames occasionally bursting free, large, thick arms that had clawed fingers at the end of them, the flames melting the stone into slag as the Demon pushed itself from the ground revealing a thick body of something that looked like a Minotaur from Muggle books, a large thick tail sweeping the ground, melting windows in its heat, the ground becoming a red slag under the heat of the Demon. Dumbledore hurriedly finished and slammed his staff down, the same affect that Harry's staff had done, except the demon was only ten feet tall and a bright red and orange, the eyes small red fireballs within the thing that would be a called a skull, Dumbledore panted heavily from atop Demons shoulders, recovering himself as he caged up his magic within himself, replenishing himself quickly "I must commend you sir, you have done a marvellous job in summoning a Demon, not many other people could do such a thing" Dumbledore stated calmly, though it had a hard edge lacing the tone.

Harry smirked, caging up his magic down to the fourth level, his magic quickly replenishing itself "I must commend you Old Man, I see you are still alive after such a summoning"

Dumbledore responded by thrusting his staff out, the Demon he rode charging forwards, Harry thrust his own staff forwards, the Demon he rode charging forwards to meet the threat, both slamming together in a titanic clash of power, both fighting for victory. Dumbledore thrust out his staff and sent a spell at Harry, his Demon moved it's arm and stopped the spell before slashing forwards with his own staff and the spell slamming into Dumbledore's Demon, Harry smirked as a chunk of the Demon was taken out with a slash of his Demon, Dumbledore retaliating with a few spells from his wand "come on Old man, I thought you were better than this!" Harry called out.

Dumbledore responded with a wave of spells that made Harry withdraw Demon and dodge, bounding on top of a shop and leaning over the side, Harry started to feel the slight drain it cost to have the Demon in play and jumped off, sending it back to wherever it came from, Dumbledore did the same and they both bent over, panting heavily, one in exhaustion, one in a show of good acting. Grunting as he stood, knowing that his limbs hurt, Harry straightened up and his wand shrunk back to a normal wand, the power to hold the formation of the staff from a wand being incredible, Dumbledore's doing the same, Harry sent a curtain of Dark Curses at Dumbledore who replied with Transfiguration and Charms, blocking them by making him seem weak by using schoolboy spells, Harry quickly grew frustrated, now knowing why Voldemort hated the old bastard so much "give up Old Man! You can never win!" he called out.

Dumbledore continued silently sending spells at him, never breaking as he replied, "I can give as much as I take!"

Harry sighed mentally, this was going to be a long day if he didn't do something about it, summoning up a flock of canaries, he banished the all at Dumbledore and called out "I never wanted to fight you Old Man, I just needed to find out about my account! You were the first one to attack me!"

Harry grinned as he vanished in a flash of black flames leaving a destroyed Diagon Alley that was left in a huge molten slag of stone, the buildings long since crumbled thanks to their duel, the whole place needing to be taken down and remodelled, all that was left untouched being the Leaky Cauldron, Gringotts and Knockturn Alley which was protected by Gringotts, Dumbledore sighed heavily, falling to a knee as he banished his Demon back to wherever it came from "I must see what I can do about purchasing some Lemon Drops while I am here" he muttered to himself, a small smile on his lips, knowing that the only reason that the Demons were summoned was because Death and Destruction had to be present and he had accidentally killed an innocent which fulfilled that clause to help the summoning come, also knowing that Gladius Herule would remain impassive if what he had said was true.

---------------------------------------

Harry looked at the papers with a grin, he saw the photos of him facing off with Dumbledore, each of them riding the Demons, it had been two months since his duel with Dumbledore and Diagon Alley still looks like Mount Krakatoa erupted there, the place still having to be torn to pieces and new buildings replace the older ones which were scorches and destroyed, Harry could have said that it would have gone better, but Harry thought that was just speaking about the 'what could have been' and the 'what ifs' that were there, fortunately, only three people died, an Aura who had landed right in the middle of the two casters and was crushed by the magical onslaught, one by Dumbledore which was an accident and one which was killed as a result of the stampeding crowds "Harry, what is that smirk for?" Francine questioned.

Harry pointed to the picture where he was in combat with Dumbledore and smirked evilly, Francine smiled nastily herself "serves the old goat humper right after what he has done to you"

Harry nodded slightly, a small grin plastering his face, looking at Tonks who was gazing at it closely, he placed his hand on her shoulder and snapped her out of her near obsessive gaze "you alright Tonks?" he whispered softly.

She nodded and gave a small groan "I need a man in my life"

Harry sniggered and pointed his wand at her and muttered a small Crucio, not a painful one either, Tonks gave a small grimace as her nipples perked up, Hermione shot him a look and Harry shrugged "hey, she needs release, who am I to refuse a lovely lady?"

Hermione scowled maliciously "but Harry, you said…"

"I know what I said Hermione" he hissed.

Tonks arched her back and slumped against the table in relief, he had focussed on the pleasure points while using the Crucio instead of causing pure pain, a variant that he had found while using it against Tonks, glancing up at the Head Table, he noticed Dumbledore speaking irritably with Fudge who was red in the face, Harry also noticed that Umbridge was there, Harry snarled and his hand twitched, so wanting to use the most vile and destructive Curse he could do legally against the two bumbling morons who thought themselves better than everyone else "Harry…" Hermione cautioned.

Harry relaxed and sighed softly "I hate this" he muttered darkly.

Tonks looked at him from her place on the table, he eyes half open "hate what Harry?" she questioned curiously.

Harry mumbled irritably to himself, small snatches of his rant audible, the rest heard only by Hermione "stupid idiots … ploys to get me … idiots the lot of them … can't understand what they want to achieve with … morons, that will never work, not in the least against one that powerful … no, they just had to be so bloody arrogant and foolhardy, just a bunch of hopeless idiots and … but no, heroes don't get any benefit of the doubt … become a scapegoat and … but stupid morons and fools think they rule the world" he finished with a deep sigh, Hermione trying to contain her laughter, the rant having gone on for a full five minutes.

Tonks frowned from her position "anything you want to speak about Harry?"

Harry shook his head harshly "no" he bit out icily.

Hermione raised her eyebrow "what's with the attitude Harry?"

Harry flipped the pages to a small piece done by Rita and read out " … and Dumbledore, whose power was once again proved to be better than anyone else's, drove off the potential Dark Lord who attacked Gringotts and Diagon Alley three months ago, Dumbledore, who had the foresight to attack Gringotts where the customers and Goblins were being held hostage by this new threat, in one statement by a customer within the bank who wishes to remain unmentioned says "It was horrible, the Dark Wizard was ranting and raving, not even letting my children go, I was scared for my life, then Dumbledore came in with a large force of esteemed Ministry officials and attacked him, I was so happy to see that fight, it made me proud to be a supporter of Dumbledore and the Ministry" this being said, the Minister of Magic has informed the public that Headmaster Dumbledore will be getting a fifty thousand Galleon reward for services and …" Harry trailed off, a scowl on his face.

Hermione picked it up and looked at the article with a raised eyebrow "… and will also be given an Order of Merlin Second Class"

Harry nodded, a deep scowl on his face "but Harry," Tonks said lightly "you would think that you would be happy about this, he nearly destroyed all of Diagon Alley"

Harry snorted loudly and looked around then whispered to Tonks "how is your Occlumency training coming along?"

Tonks smiled half heartedly "not even Dumbledore with his wand pointed at me can break into my mind"

Harry smiled and whispered in her ear "can I tell you a secret? You can't tell anyone"

Tonks gave a small nod "sure Harry, you know you can trust me, I am still your Apprentice, for life and unto death, always and forever your Apprentice"

Harry smiled and whispered "I am that Dark Wizard that was in Diagon Alley"

Tonks immediately shot up and shouted "YOU WHAT?"

Harry pulled her down with a scowl "shut up" he hissed darkly, looking around quickly, snarling as Dumbledore and Snape were watching him "follow me" he hissed again, dragging her from the Great Hall to the Quidditch Pitch where there were no wards that could be used to listen in on the conversation.

Tonks scowled as she was brought out into the cold rain, struggling against his grasp "Master, let me go" she whined.

Harry did so but continued walking quickly, looking around for anyone else, Tonks following him into the middle of the pitch, Harry stood stock still, looking around "so Master, why am I here again?"

Harry scowled "I told you about the power measuring system, how the more powerful Wizards and Witches have more barriers on their magic while the normal Witch or Wizard has about five to ten at the most, right?"

Tonk nodded slowly "yes Master, and I told you that I had sixteen barriers all together"

"I have twenty six barriers, Dumbledore has twenty three, Voldemort…" he paused for the wince before continuing "has twenty nine barriers, this means that we are Scions, I am a medium level Grand Scion, Dumbledore is a low level Grand Scion, Voldemort is a high level Grand Scion" he said, ignoring her wince "if I were to mesh my magic all together, which would expand my core beyond normal human capacity, I would probably have another few dozen more, possibly having up to, possibly even more than fifty eight barriers, but I do not know what will happen if I mesh my powers together, I could possibly completely destroy my entire magical core and explode violently, I could possibly even gain permanent traits from each of the species magic wise, who knows? I know one thing though, while the prophecy is still in play, I cannot die, I used this to my advantage when going up against Death Eaters, I can get hit by a Killing Curse and survive with a minor patch of burnt skin, but I highly doubt my magic would go into a cascade failure and completely destroy itself or even make me explode" he explained at her worried look.

Tonks breathed out a sigh of relief "I hope you don't plan on laving me too soon Master, I like our little torture lessons" she purred out.

Harry rolled his eyes "sadistic bitch, just like your Aunt Bellatrix, I could hit her constantly with a fucking Cruciatus and she would moan like a whore on aphrodisiacs on gang bang night"

Tonks gave a small purr, smirking all the while "but you know you love me"

Harry nodded and patted her head "yes my little dove, we all love you, now go play with the kiddies, I need some time alone to think"

"Don't be gone too long master, Dumbledore will be looking for you soon, he only just managed to get the bank opened and will be visiting before lunch" she chirped.

Harry rolled his eyes but nodded as she skipped away happily, sitting down on the pitch, he looked into the sky where lightning cracked and thunder roared loudly, shaking his head absently, thinking back on Halloween, he couldn't help but smile at the fearful look on Dumbledore's face when he was told about Sirius Black attacking the Gryffindor portrait, oh yes, Dumbledore was afraid that he was either out to get his little Golden Boy Neville Longbottom or his potential weapon Harry Potter, smirking, he sat up to come face to face with a large black dog.
