Chapter 2 : Busy summer and school year start

Harry woke with a shock as a bucket of icy water fell on his head.

Drake: "Apparently you have been cleared by our medic. Be in the gym in 10 minutes in training cloths." The smirking teen left without a sound.

Harry walked in the gym and saw Drake sitting peacefully on a floor mat while meditating. He walked quietly toward him and was observing the teen. He looked much less dark and scary when he was not frowning. Harry tiptoed toward the other boy as quietly as possible.

Drake: "You realize that I always pay attention to my surroundings right kid?" The teen opened his eyes and smirked at the surprised boy that had frozen mid step. "Alright, sit, I will explain the plan until September. Every morning we will come here, we will do physical training and combat training. I heard about your adventures last year and with a curiosity like your, having more than just a wand to rely on will be a good thing. Also, this part of the city is dangerous, having some bases in defense is vital. In the afternoon, we will look the magical side of things."

Drake explained a few more things then he had Harry do a few warm-ups before both boys did an intensive physical training. Drake was instructing Harry on some exercises, then the 2 of them would go to the opposite side of the gym, Harry would do the instructed exercises while Drake worked on his own workout. They did that for about 1 hr until both were breathing hard and could barely keep standing. After that they left the gym to take a break, have some food and in Harry case go talk a bit with his new friends.

Lucas: "Oi Harry! What's up man?" The red-haired boy clapped Harry on the shoulder and the raven-haired child would have fallen on the ground if Jonas hadn't managed to grab him.

Jonas: "Whoa careful there. What's wrong? Are you getting sick or something?"

Harry: "I think… I think I might have done something to make Drake angry with me… You guys did say that if Drake was pissed off at someone, he would kill them via workout training, right?"

Lucas : "Yea he never interact with us much, and unless someone mess up badly and need a drastic rise of skills he do not bother to train anyone… thankfully, because his training's are brutal… what did you do… wait you mean you had to train with him and you are still standing?! Are you sure you didn't just have a nightmare about it?"

Harry: "And he said that we would continue after a 1 hr break." Lucas stared at Harry then burst out laughing.

Lucas: "Oh my god Harry! Man, that's a good one. You must have faked being a bad liar yesterday cause for a sec I totally thought that your story was real and I was seriously pitying you" Lucas was laughing so hard that he had a hard time staying standing and had to hold his sides. "Too bad you didn't know that there is no way that Drake would give a break during training or it would have been one hell of a good story. Ha-ha thanks for the good laugh man it feels great"

Harry: "But…"

Lucas: "Well that was great and all, but we must get to work we'll see you later Harry. Have fun. Hopefully the boss will let you join us in our missions soon" They all waved to Harry and left while still chuckling softly.

Harry: "But I wasn't lying…" whispered the boy before walking back to the gym. If Drake was mad at him, no point in making him even more pissed off by being late.

The next hour, Drake was teaching him some hand to hand moves followed by 1 hour on dagger handling during that time he mostly explained to the boy the mistakes he had seen the previous day during his little surprise test. The last hour was used to stretch and learn to meditate. Once that was done the boy had 2 hours free for lunch then at 1 pm he had to go meet with the boss in his office. The boss informed him that from 1 pm to 4 pm during weekdays, he would be tutored in magic like the other magic users in their group. The boss also said that the ministry could not detect magic done in this building but that he had a time log in his office that would list whom cast what spells when and where in the house so that they should act properly with their magic and also to make sure to never be seen using magic by the others in the shelter unless in an emergency. currently there was 3 other children that could use magic. Cassey, a shy 13 years old girl with straight black hairs and almonds black eyes. Teddy, an energetic and jumpy 10 years old boy with dirty blond hairs and baby blue eyes. And…

Harry and…: "What is HE doing here?!" Both boys were pointing and glaring at each other's hatefully. "Damn snake" "Potty king of the lions" "Ice princess" Drake that had slipped in quietly answered them in a glacial, quiet and emotionless tone.

Drake: "You are both here because your family abused of you." Both boys turned red and stared indignantly at Drake.

Harry and Draco: "They didn't!" Shouted the 2 boys together before glaring again at each other's.

Boss: "No of course not. It's why Draco that each time your uncle finds a way to bring you here you are bloody mess and covered in bruises. And that you Harry, after stumbling here by sheer dumb luck Stella had to cast numerous spells to heal your bruises, cuts and broken bones. Now I will say this once and only once… Maybe this kind of pointless hatred was encouraged at that school of your, but it will not be tolerated here. You 2 better get your act together or the consequences will be dire."

Drake: "To translate kid, you would have to spend many hours with me, and today training will have seemed like vacations spent in bed compared to what we will be doing if you do not stop this idiocy right now" Whispered the teen in Harry ear.

Boss: "Cassey and Teddy, you will be with your usual tutor, Draco and Harry you are with me and Drake." They went through a hidden door in the boss office and both groups went each in a different room. "Here's the plan. First, we will go through all the spells and potions you learned last year to make sure that you are up to date. After that we will mostly go over defense spells and potions. That should keep us busy until the end of summer."

They went over all the defense spells since they hadn't learned many of them that year and started seeing the transfiguration spells. The boss would name a spell then the boys had to do them while the 2 oldest were checking and correcting their mistakes until they could do the spells perfectly. Once the 3 hours were up the 2 boys got told that they were free for the evening. Harry went outside of the shelter that evening and saw a ladder going all the way up on the side of the building so he climbed and ended up on the roof where he could watch the stars and feel the breeze of fresh air against his skin. A few hours later someone sat right next to him.

Drake: "Relaxing isn't it? I usually comes here when I need to think. Fair warning though, there is no curfew and I will not force one on you but know that I will wake you up at 6 am sharp every weekday morning for our training regardless of what time you do decide to go sleep."

Harry: "The guys said that you do not train anyone unless you are mad at them. Then why are you doing this? Did the boss force you?"

Drake: "I am not a nice person kid, I do not trust most peoples, but I do trust my instincts. The first time I saw you in the weapon room, I felt that there is a strong connection between us. The only other person I feel such a connection to is the Daemon, he's like a brother to me. I feel like I need to protect you, both of you, from any dangers and this is what I will do. Training you will play a good role in protecting you."

Harry: "Thought you were doing it for some stupid reason like being forced to or worse because of all that boy-who-lived stupidity."

Drake: "kid, no one can force me about something like that."

Unexpectedly, something started peaking Harry and Drake started laughing quietly at the boy misery.

Drake: "Back again princess?"

Harry: "Hedwig! Missed you too girl. I'm sorry for worrying you but the last few days have been crazy"

Drake: "Your owl then. She has been coming here since about a week before you arrived here. Quite the intelligent princess that you got there" The teen was softly petting the soft white feathers of the bird that was now sitting calmly on Harry shoulder, preening the young boy hairs lovingly.

Harry: "mhmm, she's the best" answered the boy being slowly lured to sleep.

Drake: "Go sleep kid" But it was too late the boy was now laying on his shoulder fast asleep and Hedwig was looking at them with eyes that clearly said that she was finding the situation quite amusing. "Sure, sure, laugh silly bird, as promised I'll have a perch for you up here within the next 2 days princess." Drake casted a quiet levitation spell on the boy to send him on the ground and then he went down the ladder before picking the boy up and going back in the shelter to put the sleeping boy to bed. He watched the boy sleep a few seconds, brushed a few hairs away from his eyes then rolled his eyes amused. "Silly boy". The teen left the room and went to bed as well.

The next morning, when Harry arrived at the gym after Drake woke him up, the boss was waiting for him.

Boss: "Good morning Harry. Drake will take care of most of your morning training but on Wednesdays I will be training you in tactical combat. Fridays are on a different schedule completely. On Fridays, all the combat training types, and magical training will be fused in a cooperative simulation that may last a few hours or the whole day. Me and Drake hold those simulations together so you and Draco will have to work together." Daemon lifted a hand to silence the boy when he was about to complain, "That's not up for discussion as one of the main reason we decided to pair you up in the first place is because of the way the two of you acted yesterday. Some weeks Teddy and Cassey will be joining your team for bigger range missions. Finally, for your information, I am a busy man so on Thursdays Draco will be joining you and Drake in your morning training since I will be taking care of business. Oh, and in case you didn't know, on Sundays, like everyone else in the shelter, you will need to join the gang missions which is a cross between training and supply gathering obviously without magic. Now enough talk; let's get to work"

Training with the boss was on a completely different level then when he was training with Drake. The dark teen was harsh, violent and was mostly using a you will learn from your mistakes or you will suffer approach. The boss for his part while having a no non-sense personality took the time to explain the concepts with a theory approach, he was patient but accepted no slacking, disrespect or anything below the best results possible. Also, to Harry horror the man was giving him reading and writing assignments to do every week. On Thursday, as soon as Harry entered the gym, Draco and he started glaring at each other's.

Drake: "I believe you know what you are supposed to do kid so get on with it." Draco grinned smugly at Harry who started to warm-up moodily. "Draco come here. First, I do not care for those petty pointless fights, so instead of sitting around and glaring, like a 2 years old toddler who didn't get a candy, next time, as soon as you arrive here you are to warm-up." Draco was looking at him offended at being talked like that. "Once the warm-up is done, we will do 1 hour of work out. After a 1 hour break to eat and cool down the two of you will practice weapon training or hand to hand training depending on the theme that day for 1 h 30, may as well use that time to settle that childish rivalry as it will be in a duel setting.. The last 30 minutes will be for stretch and meditation. Questions?" Draco opened his mouth. "No, great get to work."

During the Duel part of their day the boys figured they could get revenge on each other so they tried all they could to embarrass, hurt and beat each other up.

Drake: "You guys realize that you have 1 h 30 to do right? I will not lower the time simply because you are stupid enough to burn your energy in the first 5 minutes. Fight isn't all about strength, it's also about stamina and technique." Obviously, the 2 boys were totally not listening to him, they could finally beat the smugness out of each other's but not only were they tiring out fast, they were also evenly matched currently so they were both doing minimal damage. Drake didn't even bother to try correcting their technique, he knew they were not listening anyway and that things would be better once they got rid of the excess of anger toward each other's after all he did have to participate in such a fight himself in the past.

That Sunday was the first time he would participate in one of the gang missions. Obviously, they once again insisted to put Harry and Draco in the same team. They were in team with Lucas, with a green and blue aired dangerous looking 16 years old guy named Trevor and Rune who had warmed up considerably since the first time Harry met her. The plan was that Rune and Trevor would go to a food store, fill their basket with as much food as possible. Then when all the articles would have been scanned and packed back in their respective basket, Lucas would go steal Rune basket before she had the time to pay for it and Harry and Draco would team up to steal Trevor basket. After that the two oldest would go get all the items again and pay for it to not raise attention to them. That way they had food at half the price which with so many mouths in the shelter was a great thing.

Their mission was a success, but Harry had to distract the security guard, when he managed to take a hold of Draco, so they could run off. The 3 oldest went back to the shelter to put the food in place and Harry and Draco were walking around the city after taking a wrong turn when a bunch of scary looking brutes circled them.

Brute #1: "Well, well, what do we have here, if it isn't some of those puny little blue stripes. You're far from your territory boys, which mean we can play with you if we want to.

The brutes all smiled darkly at them and started approaching. The two boys placed themselves back to back nervously.

Harry: "Look Malfoy…"

Draco: "Shut it Harry. Let's get out of there."

The two boys tried to fight back against the group of brutes, they did manage to hit a few of them in good places but mostly the men were laughing mockingly and playing around with them for now. That is until Harry managed to kick their spokesperson, so probably their leader, between his legs which made him kneel on the floor in pain.

Draco: "Good one!"

The two boys started feeling a bit smug at their accomplishment and they slacked their defense a bit going more on offensive.

Brute #1: "Enough games boys, get them"

The circle of brutes took out various weapons, some had baseball bats, some had crate openers, some had knifes and the leader had a gun which made the kids froze in fear until a shadow started appearing on the leader before a body fell right on him slapping the gun away. Drake punched the leader hard making him fly back before crashing hard in the brick wall behind him. Once the leader was down, he started attacking the other members of the group violently and precisely. The boys realized at that time that Drake was much stronger than what he used when teaching them. While he was kicking the members down one by one, not even giving them the chance to run, Drake started talking.

Drake: "It wasn't too bad; the form was decent considering you guys were panicking. I'm mostly happy that you didn't just freeze. We will obviously go over the errors you made in the process, including the fact that you two are out of the perimeter of our territory. But all in all, good job."

Drake dropped the unconscious man, that he had just punched repeatedly, on the floor as he finished speaking, all the brutes sprawled a bit everywhere on the street with various states of injuries and all of them being unconscious.

Drake: "Let's go home."

A few hours later Draco went to Harry room with a sigh.

Draco: "Look Potter…" The boy offered his hand. "Malfoy, Draco Malfoy, nice to meet you." Harry grinned and grabbed the blond boy hand and Draco relaxed with a satisfied smile.

A routine settled in the shelter during the next few days. Harry would go to his lessons which were getting harder each day and making the boy wake up sore every morning. Then he would hang out with his new friends during lunch before going to the magic training. Him and Draco were slowly starting to be able to work together without wanting to kill each other's. During the evening Harry would go on the roof and chat a bit with Drake and Hedwig. He was starting to enjoy the dark humor and scary temper of the older boy since he realized that it was mostly a mask to keep the others away.

The teen was still able to scare him if he wanted to. Like that day that the curiosity got the better of him and he did open one of the forbidden fridges. No one was in the kitchen and Harry couldn't stop wondering why they were not allowed to open those fridges. What could be hidden in those anyway… So, the boy opened one of them after making sure that no one was around and as soon as he opened it a weird green smoke started coming out from it and he couldn't see anything in it because of that. An alarm had started up at the same time and an automatic system made the fridge close itself back on its own at the same time as whatever that green smoke was made the boy pass out on the cold floor. The next thing he was aware of was that he was in his bed and Drake was screaming angrily at him. So far he had seen the teen smirk, look gloomy, speak coldly, venomously, but he had never heard him scream other then a few words through the door during the Diagon alley wand shopping day, he was one of those person that could make you understand that he was angry while speaking in the softest of tone. A screaming Drake was honestly making him want to disappear especially when the teen mentioned that Harry had won a painful Saturday in his company. That evening, Harry figured he shouldn't bother the teen on the roof.

Saturday morning, Harry went to the training room as requested and started feeling nervous when it looked like that the teen was still very angry with him.

Harry: "Drake, I…"

Drake: "Don't bother kid. You messed up, we will deal with it that you want to or not. As I mentioned yesterday, forbidden area exists for a reason. Touching or entering somewhere forbidden will either put you in danger, invade someone privacy or put someone else in danger which are all unacceptable. No matter what, if you do something forbidden here, you will pay for it I will make sure of it, especially that there are very few rules. Now I highly recommend that you warm up thoroughly." A few hours later Harry was breathing hard on the floor almost unable to move anymore and Drake looked calm and in peace. Drake grabbed him and put him across his shoulder before going to the boy room and dropping him on his bed. "I'll come fetch you Monday morning kid, you may not take part in the mission tomorrow. Please do not force my hand again…"

Harry: "Damn I'll never be able to move again…" Mumbled the boy pitifully to himself.

Lucas: "Yo Harry! Still alive then?"

Harry: "Barely…"

Lucas: "Yea, never figured what's about those fridges. Whenever someone open one of them Drake kick their ass… hard. No one ever even managed to get a glimpse in the damn thing either. Some say it's empty, just to lure peoples and get them in troubles. Other says Drake hides all treasures in there or something. Anyway, no one ever managed to get in there or to survive Drake wrath"

Harry: "Well one thing is for sure, I'll never ever open one of those fridges again…"

The first few days of the following week were pure torture. Harry still had to do his morning training with Drake and while the teen was back to his usual sarcastic but not angry self, he was not going any easier on the boy even if Harry was still very sore from his punishment.

On Tuesday, when Harry went on the roof nervously afraid that Drake was still too angry with him, but it was Hedwig that was glaring at him for not visiting her… again. The bird was sitting on Drake shoulder on the opposite shoulder from where Harry was sitting, and she was alternating between glaring at her master and turning her back to him. Every time he tried to pet her; she would peak his hand in warning.

Harry: "Aww come one Hedwig, I'm sorry." Pouted the boy.

Drake: "Told you that you have an intelligent princess here boy." Drake tone was amused and mocking and if a bird could look smug at that, Hedwig did.

On Wednesday evening, Harry was eating alone in the kitchen. Thankfully his soreness was starting to lessen, and he was starting to enjoy being less stiff in his movements. Suddenly with a pop a weird green creature with huge yellow eyes appeared in the middle of the table. The thing, a house elf it said it was, explained that the great Harry Potter shouldn't go back to Hogwart, that the little elf would do anything to stop him from going back. The elf said it had a foolproof plan for that too. It said it was spying on them during the fridge fiasco and that his family would be so angry if he opened the fridge again that they would surely forbid him from going back. Harry refused to not go and tried to stop the little elf but when he tried to grab the creature which had moved right next to the fridge the little elf casted a spell that opened the door and popped away magically.

When Harry woke up this time, Drake was walking up and down irately in his room. If there was a rug, he would probably be wearing it out.

Harry: "Ididntopenitiswearitwas"

Drake: "Calm down, breath and speak slowly silly boy I don't speak gibberish"

Harry: "I'm sorry. I swear I didn't open it!"

Drake: "Really now. Do explain why the door opened right when you were there then?"

Harry took a few shaky breaths realizing that Drake somehow didn't seem as angry as the other day and that he had a chance to give his side of the story.

Harry: "It was a House elf" At that Drake lifted a skeptical eyebrow "well I think it was… it's what it said it was. Weird green thing with huge yellow eyes that kept wanting to hurt itself… It said it didn't want me to go back to Hogwart. That it would make sure I couldn't go back. That if you were sufficiently angry that you would stop me from going."

Drake: "I see… Any idea why that house elf does not want you to go back? Its not really in their nature. And do you know who its master is?"

Harry: "You believe me?!"

Drake: "Obviously. A crazy house elf opening the damn thing sounds way more plausible then you daring to try that again when you are still sore and suffering from last time you did. Now answer my question. Any idea why that thing does not want you to go back to school?"

Harry: "It wouldn't tell me who it belonged to and no, it just went crazy and…" Lied Harry not wanting to risk him agreeing with the elf over some unknown probably imaginary danger. But Drake stopped walking up and down abruptly and went right in front of the boy and grabbed the front of his shirt pulling him right in front of his face before speaking in a soft menacing tone.

Drake: "I will be nice. I will assume it's the stress that is speaking for you and that you did not mean to lie right in my face. Why does that elf does not want you to go back?" The last part was said harshly while saying each word slowly.

Harry: "Something about a big danger but I do not know anything else I swear." Said Harry quickly.

Drake: "Alright, I will look into it. Never hide any potential danger from me again boy, I need to be able to trust you or I'll have to watch you 24/7."

On Thursday, Harry sent a letter to Ron and one to Hermione to let them know that he was having a good summer and asked how their summer was coming along. He also proposed that they met in Diagon Alley in august to do their school shopping and to spend the day together.

The remaining of the summer went by in a blur. Between the training that just kept getting harder, the magical training in the afternoon and spending time with his new friends Harry could say without thinking that this was his best summer ever, but it was also his shortest one. The next thing he knew it was already his birthday. Every single inhabitant of the shelter was currently in the kitchen eating cake. They had spent the day playing games in the recreation room and in the gym. They did a few obstacle races, agility contests and all kind of skill games as well as some logic and tactical games. All in all, it had been a wonderful and fun day. Harry got a few handmade trinkets from his friends, a silver necklace from Daemon (which he learned later was a protection charm made by Stella that he had to keep on at all time) and a journal from Drake, who told him he would be needing it soon to write his briefings. Two weeks later, Drake apparated the boy to the apparition point near the leaky cauldron.

Drake: "Alright, I will be picking you up here at 6 pm do not make me have to go get you. If you get done sooner, or if there's something wrong, ask Tom to send a floo flare at this address, blue if you are done, red if there's a problem. It will warn us."

Harry went in the Leaky Cauldron and could easily spot his friends. It was like a red river in an ocean of black. Harry walked toward the Weasley clan and Hermione. When the girl saw him, she ran and crushed him in a strong hug.

Ron: "Oi Hermione, do not kill him already"

Hermione: "Oh shush Ron" The girl slapped his shoulder playfully

Molly: "Harry dear, how was your summer?" The woman hugged him tightly too

Harry: "It was good Madam Weasley thank you"

Molly: "Call me Molly dear child."

Harry: "Alright Mad…Molly"

Arthur: "Nice to meet you, young man, my name is Arthur"

Harry: "A pleasure sir"

Gred and Forge: "If it's not" "The little Harrykin" "how is wittle" "Hawy dowin today?"

Harry: "Hey Fred, George, doing great what about you guys?" The twins grinned happily when Harry looked at the right twin with each name he was naming. It was not the first time they noticed him doing that but now they were sure of it, the boy could recognize them contrary, to most… well to everyone else's.

Ginny: "Hhhhi Hhharry"

Ron: "That's my baby sister Ginny, she is starting Hogwart this year."

Harry: "That's awesome, hey there Ginny."

Hermione: "Harry I present you my parents, mom, dad here's my friend Harry."

Mr. and Mme Granger: "Hermione told us a lot about you, young man, a pleasure to be meeting you."

Harry: "Nice to meet you Sir, Ma'am

Molly: "Alright, let's get going, we have much to do!"

First, they went to the bank to get some money. Harry was almost embarrassed to get money from his vault after the Weasley had to scratch every sickle to the last from their pretty much empty vault. Once that was done Harry, Hermione and Ron went one way while the others went another, they were to meet in 2 hours at the bookstore. The 3 children chattered happily talking about their summer and what they wanted to do once back at Hogwart. Harry mostly said that his family was leaving him in peace this summer and that he was mostly studying and relaxing… It was partly true…

Once they arrived at the bookstore, the building was super full of peoples. They found out that some author was signing his books and that Hermione and Madam Weasley had a fangirl crush on the guy. Harry was still chattering with his friend and trying to push his way around the shop when without his notice, the author, one Gilderoy Lockhart, sees him and take hold of his shoulder to pull him upstage to take a photo with him. Harry, taken by surprise, grab the man arm and send him flying toward the crowd.

Harry: "Oh no… I am sorry sir; you took me by surprise!"

Gilderoy: "It's quite alright my boy. A celebrity always needs to be on it's guard, that's the spirit! Now let's have a picture my boy! I have an announcement to make everyone. This year I will be teaching the defense against the dark art class at Hogwart. As such, out of the kindness of my heart I offer my complete signed bibliography to Harry Potter here."

When that comedy was done Harry dropped all the books in Ginny bag. At the same time Draco who had to go home the day before strolled in with a man that could only be his father. The man was tall, imposing and had a cruel air around him which made Harry cringe, he was starting to feel bad for the boy and he was starting to feel guilty about taking so long to warm up to the Malfoy heir.

Mr. Malfoy started insulting the Weasley and the Grangers which ended up in a fist fight between Mr. Malfoy and Arthur. In the end, Mr. Malfoy stood up, discretely dropped a little black book in Ginny bag and called Draco to his side as if he was a dog then the 2 left the store.

The Weasley, Granger and Harry finished their shopping and headed home. Since it wasn't all that far from the schedule time, Harry went to the apparition point and sat on a container nearby.

Drake apparated them back in Daemon office then he magicked Harry school things directly to his room, transformed his cloths in training cloths and dragged him directly to the gym.

Harry: "Aww Drake, you're serious?!"

Drake: "When aren't I serious kid? Anyway, we have 2 weeks left, we are going to use them as best as possible."

They trained, even harder then before for the last 2 weeks of vacations. They changed the training schedule; it was now only him and Drake and only physical and weapon training since he would do more magic at school then weapon training. Harry was now able to counter some of Drake attacks with the daggers, he was also feeling much more at ease with hand to hand combat and his stamina was at least 3 times bigger than at the start of the summer.

That night they were again all in the kitchen for the end of summer common meal. Every year, on august 31st, the gang was having a farewell dinner for the few kids that even though they were orphan, their parents had apparently signed them up for a private boarding school and paid all the tuition fees before dying or at least that's what everyone had been told.

After the meal, Harry went to the roof and Drake joined him there not long after.

Harry: "Hey Drake" Said the boy sadly in welcome.

Drake: "Don't be all mushy kid. You'll be back for Christmas. You will be so busy with school and homework and with making sure to not do anything risky or dangerous or troublesome that you will not see the time pass. Also, you will be busy training at least 2 hours a day."

Harry: "Wait what?!" Drake looked at the boy with a lifted eyebrow.

Drake: "Pfft…For one, you will lose every progress you've made if you don't. Second, I will know, and I won't be happy, it's something you do not want, trust me… Every morning, you will work out for 1hour before classes. You will find an empty classroom or something of the sort to practice your moves in the evening for at least 1 hour as well. That's the first request I have for you during the school year. The second request is, as mentioned previously, that you do not look for trouble, that you stick to doing normal student activity, no crazy adventures, no quests, no fighting 3 headed dogs or trolls, nothing of the sort. Finally, I want to inform you that the journal I got you for your birthday is a 2-way messenger. Whenever you write something in it, I will see it and whenever I write something in it you will see it. So, my last request, is that every evening you brief me about your day, your studies, your training and any problem that may have happened during the day. Should there be something wrong, write as soon as possible no matter the time. And I am sure, that you understood that I was simply being polite when I said they were requests, I expect you to fulfil all of them."

Harry: "What if I don't?" Asked Harry daringly feeling a wave of bravado and indignation at the amount of request.

Drake: "If you don't, I won't hesitate to go to Hogwart and spank you until you never even think of defying me again." Said Drake harshly making the boy stare with wide eyes and open mouthed like a fish out of the water.

Harry: "Whe… WHAT?!" Drake scoffed amused.

Drake: "While this face is quite hilarious, I am serious, if you defy me on this, especially on the don't do anything stupid part, I will come to that school of your and give you hell, although I will most likely find a suitable room and give you a training session worse then the one you had when you put your nose in the forbidden fridge…"

Harry: "Fine, fine… I was just messing around…"

Drake: "Hope so for you kid, hope so for you…"

When Harry arrived at King cross station the next day, Ron and his family were getting out of a car nearby, so he went and saluted them. Harry and his friend were talking together while all the members of the family were crossing the barrier. When they tried to cross too, they ran right into a solid wall. After freaking out for a while they decided to use the Weasley flying car to go to school, it would be cool, and they wouldn't get in trouble for not getting to school.

They flew many hours until they could finally see the castle. As they were getting closer, there started to be huge turbulence until they crashed only to realize that they were getting attacked by a tree.

When they finally managed to get away, they ran to the school, but the feast had started already. They were looking through the door when a voice behind them made them turn around guiltily. Professor Snape was standing before them in all his glory and he was silently fuming. They went to the professor office where the man didn't go lightly on the scolding and insults until their head of house came to their rescue.

That evening, Harry was just glad that it was much easier to lie by writing then it was to do so by voice.

Earlier that evening, Shelter, The boss office

Boss: "Well that's it our little magical protegees are gone until Christmas. You will finally get some peace from training the boys my friend."

Drake: "Indeed" The teen was distracted and keep glancing at the book on his lap. Daemon served himself and his friend a glass of whiskey seeing as the teen looked unusually stressed out.

Boss: "No need to worry Drake. They are taking the train to school; they will eat a royal feast and they will go sleep what could happen right?" It was cute, he had never seen his friend so flustered before.

Drake: "Just have a bad feeling is all. But you are right, nothing can happen."

Boss: "Aww, just say already that you will miss the kid" That made Drake snort in amusement.

Drake: "As if. I'll finally get some peace and quiet."

Daemon: "mhmm" Daemon had an amused smile on his face which intensified when Drake hurriedly opened the glowing book on his lap before relaxing. A few second after the book started glowing a special edition of the daily prophet appeared on the boss desk.

Drake: "They got to the school alright, the train ride was boring and uneventful, the feast was great as usual. He ate too much and feels sleepy now… Silly boy." The teen voice was full of fondness which was making Daemon feel a bit bad about the next part.

Boss: "Apparently." Daemon thrown the prophet on his friend lap and the teen started swearing angrily. "Peace and quiet hmm?"

Hogwart Wednesday morning

They were all sitting in the great hall having breakfast when an owl dropped a red letter in front of Ron.

Howler: "Ronald Weasley! How dare you steal that car! I am absolutely disgusted! Your father's now facing an inquiry at work and it's entirely your fault! If you put another toe out of line, we'll bring you straight home! Oh, and Ginny dear, congratulation on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud."

Ron was hiding under the table in shame and Harry for his part received an unsigned note from Hedwig.

Letter: "Hope for you that they never find out about this or you will be in for it for sure. Meet me behind the 3rd knight on the 4th floor at 7 tonight"

That evening, Harry managed to sneak out of the common room while his friends were distracted by the twin's new products demonstration. He was walking down the 4th floor when suddenly something pulled him sharply behind a set of armor and through a hidden door.

Draco: "Drake is right… You need to pay attention to your surroundings. Anyway, what was that stupid idea about anyway? Flying in a car? What if you guys crashed or something? How do you think you would have explained that one to Drake if he'd found out huh?"

Harry: "Snape, Dumbledore, Mcgonagall, Hermione and now you? Please give me a break we were fine!" Snapped Harry irritated.

Draco: "Yea, sheer dumb luck again if you want my opinion. Anyway, no one ever come here. I normally use this room when I want some peace. We can train here, it's a bit small but at least we wouldn't be seen or bothered."

Friday, Snape classroom

Snape: "Potter! You will come to my office tomorrow at 10am sharp. I will not tolerate any tardiness"

Harry: "Yes sir" Said Harry confused
