October 31, 1991
"So shouldn't we be in class right now?" Blaise asked Persephone as they were manually mixing cement with an assortment of random rocks inside of the mix. (Read Persephone was making him do it while she was laying in the grass.
"I'm going to pretend you didn't just say that, hell you don't even socialize very much with anybody outside of our house and you're a being of that weird magical energy thing, why would you even need to go to class?" She said with a deadpan look lifting her head to look at Blaise who was giving her the same deadpan look.
"What can I say it's interesting to see what they can do with magic and how I can use it. Who knows I might be able to figure out how to do something new! Also we're done." He said finally stopping, Persephone got up and stretched saying,
"Ah Finally now just pour half of the mix into that mold over there…good let me just toss this in and then you can pour in the rest." As she was talking she walked up to the mold and pulled a stone out of her pocket before tossing it into the mold before Blaise filled it up the rest of the way.
"Alright now make it dry quickly and we can send it off!" she said with a grin while he just sighed and put his hand above the mold and concentrated. After a moment a green glow surrounded both his hand and the mold before the mold quickly solidified and Blaise reached down and lifted it off the ground with his bare hands before standing it upright,
"I can't believe you just tossed the Philosopher's stone into a six foot tall stone hand flipping someone off, and to make matters worse you mixed it in with a bunch of other red rocks to make their lives even harder. What happened to the whole everybody dies anyways and not caring how long they live?" Blaise asked looking incredulously at Persephone who just stared proudly at said stone middle finger.
"It's not the living thing that bothers me, it's the fact that they have an endless amount of gold."
"…"
"…what?"
"are you serious?"
"Of course I'm serious! This thing is like the sharingan for living in luxury as long as possible! I mean not only do you get the chance for an extended life but you also toss into the picture unlimited wealth and boom easy life! And the worst part is he's smart about it and doesn't use the gold left and right ruining the economy but no he uses just enough not to be suspicious and how is that fair!?" She ranted while Blaise just stood there with a sweat drop before saying.
"So you're just mad because he's smarter than you are with money?"
"Ok you're fired"
"You can't fire me but that wasn't a no." He chuckled before Persephone stormed off telling him to just send it away, Blaise looked at it and decided to do the Flamel's a favor and put a small mark over where the stone should be or at least it's general area before waving his hand and the statue disappeared to reappear on their front lawn with a note taped to the front.
Pernell Flamel was out taking care of the many plants in their garden before the air distorted and a stone obelisk popped into a clear area of the garden. She saw what the shape was and knew inside just who it was meant for.
Meanwhile inside of their house Lily potter was taking lessens with Nicolas Flamel before she heard loud laughter outside causing them to look out the window seeing the statue. Lily broke down Laughing while Nicolas just slapped a palm to his face and said,
"So when you introduced me to the literal embodiment of death, I did not expect this to be a thing you know?" Lily just let her chuckling die down a bit before responding to him,
"Hey it could be worse, she could actually take offense to that sort of thing you know?" Causing the man to just sigh before grabbing his chiseling tools muttering,
"Safest place my ass, That boy lost the stone before the term even finished and probably doesn't even know it yet" Before he got to work getting his stone out without breaking it.
"LILY GET OUT HERE, ON PAPER SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER SO YOU GET TO HELP FIX THIS MESS!" He yelled out when he saw all the other red stones embedded inside the statue. Lily just sighed before grabbing her tools and heading out to help her teacher.
Meanwhile back at Hogwarts we show Persephone and Blaise having a serious conversation about Harry's previous problem with the energy shooting out from his body.
"Hmm well I didn't give him anything special when I gave the three their spirits, maybe it has something to do with dispelling his copy? How was the feedback when they merged?" Blaise asked given that he was busy before school started. Persephone just gave a wince before saying,
"Not good at all, we kind of underestimated how messed up his family was and he was a little shaken up seeing everything they did to him, or at least what they thought was him. Honestly, I don't even want to use the copy again but we need to keep up appearances a bit longer." Blaise just stood there with his arms crossed and eyes closed thinking about it before snapping them open with a pale look on his face.
"I think I know what happened," he spoke with a bit of regret to his voice causing Persephone to stop and think,
'If it has him worried I wonder what it could be?'
"What if his copy created an Obscurus? And when we merged the two, what if the obscurus came along for the ride and instead of merging with Harry the dragon interfered and merged with that instead. That could have ended up mutating it into whatever the hell you dealt with." Blaise finished.
Persephone stopped and thought about it for a second before agreeing. Blaise then asked,
"So what do you mean it was worse than you expected?" Persephone took a deep breath of the fall air before saying,
"When we merged Harry's copy we thought it would be like Lily's and James's copy where they just took he back burner in their minds and gave them a few nightmares and a headache but Harry's was more intense. It's probably because of Fate's intern in this universe wanting the kid to go through a bit of hardship and not realizing who they're messing with yet but because of that instead of the memories just dropping themselves in like a movie, Harry had to live through all those memories from those abusive jerks in one day, god I definitely don't wish essential mental torture on anybody, especially from your own family that kind of stuff can really mess you up." She said grimacing at the memories of Harry screaming in pain.
Being death she's seen a lot but one thing she has in common with her siblings and Blaise is that they hate to see children suffer or be hurt unnecessarily. Sure sometimes you have to go through something bad in order for something good to happen but that doesn't mean they have to like it. Blaise gave a hum in response while frowning before saying,
"How angry would Fate be if I confronted her intern here?" and Persephone knew that he was serious before smiling a bit and saying,
"Fate's just as mad about this as I am so she might scold you a bit but I don't think she'll care to much as long as you don't go overboard."
"Good gives me something productive to do today at least, also why did you and your sisters decide to choose female forms anyways?"
Persephone just shrugged before responding,
"Eh blame Time, she did it first and it was easier to just copy her rather than design original forms and genders for each of us. And what do you mean finally something productive?! I'll have you know that was very important work we did here!" She said which Blaise just shrugged before saying,
"Right well in that case I'm going to go and send a little message I'll see you in the dorms later, damn gods always having good hiding places but I'll find them anyways." And with that he waved before vanishing from sight causing Persephone to smile knowing that at least the Potters won't suffer to badly now that he's on the case.
'Man I should have brought him here earlier and we wouldn't even have that problem but oh well we can work with it. I guess I should deal with the wraith here anyways too. Let us all relax a bit longer anyways. I wonder how to go about dealing with that?' She thought to herself walking towards the great hall for the Halloween feast.

Meanwhile with the rest of house Hogwarts
As the rest of house Hogwarts was walking out of charms class the majority of house Hogwarts was snickering at Harry's predicament. Said predicament was that he had a fanboy who just wouldn't leave his side. Now Harry knew that he was mostly acting on Dumbledore's orders but honestly he didn't think Ron Weasley would act to different either way.
"Wow Harry, mate I'm not surprised you managed to get the charm in the first try. Must be great being a prodigy and all!" Ron said while Harry just groaned facepalming and giving a glare towards his house who was STILL snickering alongside some Gryffindor's.
"Listen Weasley-" Before being interrupted by Ron for the third time since class ended,
"You can call me Ron mate I told you already"
*Sigh* "Ok Weasley I know I'm just being polite, but still I'm not a prodigy it was just one spell, and besides if anybody's a prodigy you can look over at Alice or Even Granger? I mean isn't it amazing that a muggleborn also got it on her first try? " He asked trying to get Ron's attention off of him for once this year.
'God I really hope that this doesn't last very long I don't think I can make it, maybe I can transfer? How's my French?' he thought over to his housemates before Mina answered.
'Not good enough Harry, I've heard you speak French before when Alice is teaching you and it's meh,' She thought back before Isaiah chimed in,
'Mina don't lie meh is making it sound better than it actually is it I think he's just stuck here anyways with his adoring fans'
'Yea Harry mate why would you ever leave us right? Oh also can I have a lock of your hair? It's not for me I swear just my collection of Harry Potter merchandise!' Sofia said with a pretty accurate Ron Weasley impression causing them all to start laughing over the connection while Susan and Neville just covered their mouths to hold it in. Andrew just smiled and told Harry,
'Sorry man this is the price of being famous but if it makes you feel better none of us can idolize you anymore after seeing Susan drag you and Neville out of bed…literally' Alice finally decided to chime in after observing the interactions before saying,
'As much as I'm enjoying this maybe we should chime in to the outside world right now? I mean Weasley's been talking to you this whole time.
'Has he even stopped to breathe?' and they weren't quite sure who asked that but the answer was a resounding no before they tuned into the conversation.
"- and don't even get me started on Granger that know it all! You know she doesn't even have many friends in Gryffindor and honestly I'm not surprised!" Causing the house and some of the Gryffindor's to glare at him but before anybody could say anything they heard a gasp and saw Hermione who was walking a bit behind them who ran past them before anybody could stop her.
Harry was about to snap at Ron before someone beat him to the to the punch. Ron was harshly turned around by one of his housemates Dean Thomas before Dean yelled in his face. "GOD WEASLEY DO YOU EVER SHUT UP?"
Shocking the rest of the audience including some passerby's who stopped to listen before one random student ran off into the school quickly.
"The only reason we aren't friends with Hermione is because we barely see each other! From what I can tell she seems better than you already!" Before Punching Ron in the face shocking him and then shoving him towards the ground. Right after he did that they heard a stern voice yell,
"Ok that's enough break it up you two!" As Septima Vector came charging towards the scene. She quickly took control of the situation sending the students off their own ways before taking Ron and Dean back to her office to sort things out before sending them to Professor McGonagall.
After ducking into a door and losing the others they finally ended up back in the Hogwarts common room.
"AH FINALLY I DON'T HAVE TO HEAR HIM ANYMORE!" Harry shouted out enjoying his Ron free time. Susan turned to Alice and said,
"Still that was messed up how he treated Hermione, the girl is just trying to fit in from what I can tell."
Alice nodded agreeing with her before saying,
"It was nice of Dean to stand up for her though, hopefully he makes more time to hang out with her now, same for their other housemates."
The sorting hat watched this amusedly before saying,
"As happy as I am to see you all concerned for the welfare of other students I do believe it's time for you to go to the Halloween feast down in the great Hall, I'll also be assigning a head of house for you to report to for now on, now that you have gotten situated with your classes."
Confused Susan asked,
"Wait I thought that you were our head of house?" The sorting hat smiled and said,
"While I am happy that you have all seen fit to come to me with any questions and concerns I have to say, I am an a hat. Therefore I am extremely limited in my capabilities of being ahead of house. Don't worry though I have a great choice in mind that I will announce after Albus's introductions tonight. Now off with the lot of you! Go eat and be merry!" The sorting hat said sending them off before the kids said bye and headed down to the feast.
'I can tell that this group is going to be great one day and I will do my best to guide them all to the best of my abilities and give them the resources as well. I just hope she is up to the task of helping out with guiding these students.'

At the feast
The students were all seated at the Halloween feast eagerly awaiting the festivities, while Blaise and Persephone were still MIA Harry wasn't too worried because he knew Persephone could handle herself. The headmaster stood up from his throne and said,
"I welcome you all to the Halloween feast where we enjoy and celebrate not only All Hallows eve but also the day the Dark lord fell at the sacrifice of Lily and James Potter leaving there son Harry who will join us at this feast for years to come!" He said looking directly at Harry who blanked his face, Alice just looked over and squeezed his hand before whispering,
"He's really trying to remind everybody your famous isn't he?"
"I think he's just so old that he has to remind himself or else he'll forget!" Susan whispered back causing the rest of the house to chuckle at the statement. Before the food arrived though they were stopped by an announcement from the floating hat above the center dais after Dumbledore sat down.
"I do apologize for the interruption but I believe it is time to announce the new head of house for our 5th house!" Hearing that the Headmaster tried to take control of the situation and said,
"As interesting as this is, no choices have been approved by either Minerva nor myself, therefore how can a head of house be chosen? Perhaps it would be best to discuss this at a later point in time-"But before he could finish the sorting hat interrupted the headmaster by saying,
"No need headmaster, as the head of house has been chosen by both Hogwarts and myself and the teacher we have appointed shall be… SEPTIMA VECTOR!"
Now Septima Vector was just getting ready to eat her food before all this. She had a long day trying to get the basics of Ancient Runes through to the students, and then dealing with those fighting first years so she was content to relax at dinner and converse with her friend Aurora Sinistra.
'I knew I shouldn't have become a Professor at 25 but no I just had to let Aurora convince me to apply together with her.' She thought to herself before hearing her name shouted from the sorting hat that for some odd unexplainable reason she stood up and slammed her hands on the table shouting out
"SLYTHERIN!" only to see the blank faces of the students looking back at her before the Weasley twins broke out in laughter causing the startled professor to blush before started to sit down but before she could sit the sorting hat spoke up,
"Don't sit yet Professor, and I must say congratulations on your new promotion!"
"Umm promotion?" The professor asked really regretting getting lost n her thoughts during the announcements.
"Why your promotion as the new head of house Hogwarts of course, don't worry we can discuss this later for now I believe it's time to eat!" Before the food finally appeared much to the gratefulness of the mass of students before they all dug in.
After eating for a little while the mood was interrupted by the doors being slammed open revealing a frightened professor Quirrell running into the great hall.
"TROLL! TROLL IN THE DUNGEONS…thought you ought to know" Before he collapsed in the middle of the great hall. After the students panicked Dumbledore stood up and took control of the situation,
"SILENCE! Now if you would all follow your prefects and your heads of houses including the newly inducted Professor Vector towards your common rooms in an orderly fashion while the rest of the staff and myself will handle the troll!" Before the students all got up and follow after the prefects and heads of houses leaving the Slytherin students, the Hogwarts house and the new head of house in the great hall.
Septima decided to break the silence by asking,
"Where in the world could Professor Snape have disappeared to I swear that I saw him here when the announcement was made." A 6th year prefect spoke up,
"I saw the Professor run off into one the side hallways ma'am also none of us feel comfortable going to our common room right now given that the troll is in the dungeons." That was a fair point all things considered before the sorting hat chimed in,
"That is a valid concern but given the situation we cannot have you all out the open so I offer you shelter inside of the Hogwarts common room while this situation is settled- wait what's this….HOW COULD THEY MAKE AN ERROR OF THIS MAGNITUDE! HARRY, SUSAN, NEVILLE A STUDENTS LIFE IS AT RISK GET TO THE SECOND FLOOR WOMEN'S RESTROOM NOW!" Knowing that the hat knew about their transformations and basic training they darted off immediately knowing that it was important.
And before anybody could stop them they darted out through the nearest door to take them to the 2nd floor. Right before the door slammed shut behind them they were followed out by Penelope Padgett who reacted immediately due to the hat's yelling.
Before Septima could have said anything in response the hat yelled again,
"SEPTIMA MAKE SURE THE STUDENTS GET TO THE ROOM SAFELY AND DO A HEAD COUNT TO SEE WHO IS MISSING! AFTER THAT GO AND FIND THE OTHER STUDENTS AND HELP THEM! THE REST OF HOGWARTS HOUSE GO AND SEE THE OTHER HOUSES AND DO THE SAME WE NEED TO HURRY NOW!"
Causing the two houses to scramble, while they were just kids they could understand the tone the hat was speaking in and led the way through the same door that the other four left through except this time leading them into the Hogwarts house common room.
All of Slytherin house was too shaken to really appreciate where they were but they couldn't help but recognize how amazing it was that something like this was in the school and nobody knew about it as the room was slowly expanding to accommodate for the influx of students inside of it. Tracey Davis was the one who broke the trend of muttering and whispering by asking out lout,
"Professor? Is a student really going to die?" and that question could cause a pin to drop and causing the Hogwarts students to stop heading out because even if some students were bullies or acted tough or dark none of them was ever actually exposed to death like their parents or even the Professor was. Knowing that what she said could greatly affect this student she walked up to her aware of all the eyes on her and the students parting ways for the Professor to approach the frightened girl, she kneeled down and placed a hand on her shoulder before taking a deep breath,
'It's ok you can do this' she told herself before saying out loud,
"Look at me, what's your name?"
"Tracey Davis, professor,"
"Ok Tracey I need you to breathe, and the same goes for the rest of you got it? Now I know that this is scary but I need you to trust me and trust what I'm about to tell you… I can't promise you that nobody will get hurt, I'm terrified right now because from what I can tell we have five students facing a troll and that even gives fully grown wizards trouble. But I can promise you this Tracey, we're going to do the headcount and then I'm going to go and help my students. But I need all of you to promise something," She said causing Tracey to ask her what it was,
"If something goes wrong I need you all to stay here until somebody comes and gets you," A 4th year asked,
"How would we know if something goes wrong?" and the sorting hat knowing what she was going to do summoned a large mirror on the wall giving the surprised professor a nod and saying out loud,
"I would prefer not to do this but given the situation I hope you all swear to keep this a house secret what you will see here I won't force you but the decision will be yours understood?" Before they could say anything though the professor tapped a small button on her robes with her wand causing a small rune to glow before tapping on the mirror immediately after causing multiple runes to glow around the edges, and before anybody could ask she turned around and said,
"Ok now about that headcount?"
.

Meanwhile with the young heroes they came out the small hallway into the 2nd floor in front of the restrooms they looked around before hearing a quiet sobbing. As they were about to go in they were shocked at the voice behind them,
"Hold on you three, I don't know what's going on but let me go in first just in case got it?" Penelope spoke up shocking the three who didn't realize she followed behind them in their rush to get over here.
'Man that could really bite us in the butt later' Neville thought to himself before slowly following her into the bathroom where they saw Hermione curled up in a stall, Penelope walked up and said,
"Hey kid I don't know what's wrong but we need you to come with us ok? There's something going on and all the students are in the common rooms except for us so we need to hurry ok?" and understanding the general idea of what was going on Hermione stood up and started to follow after the group and as Neville opened the door he suddenly shut it very quickly. Penelope spoke up asking,
"Neville what's wrong?"
"We need to get as far away from the door as possible now." He whispered back ushering the group back against the wall before through a slip of tongue Harry asked.
"Wait are you saying that the Troll is outside?" Before Susan slapped him in the back of the head while Hermione gasped and yelled out,
"A TROLL!" and knowing that it was just a bad omen Penelope immediately summoned a shield around the group right as the wall burst open and a flash of red sped past Neville towards the dust. And once the dust was clear the two other girls watched in awe as a reptilian like Susan was digging literal claws into the trolls club wielding arm. With a snarl on her face Susan gave in to her Dragon's instincts of taking out her foe the best way possible.
Shaking themselves out of their stupors Harry and Neville also shot forward much to the protest of Penelope and Hermione also adopting slight reptilian features but not nearly to the level that Susan was but still enough to give them a boost where they quickly shot behind the troll and slammed behind it's knees causing it to crumple forward. As soon as it was nearing the ground Susan jumped off and landed in between Neville and Harry before giving a growl towards the fallen troll. During the fall the troll broke it's club in two so it discarded it's fallen weapon before it's arms started to glow a faint red color.
It suddenly lashed forward and slammed it's fist towards the kids who quickly jumped out of the way shocked by it's increase in speed before looking back and seeing a crater quite a ways bigger than the fist itself.
"Huh so that's troll magic? I always thought it would summon a bridge or something." Susan said while Harry just scoffed and said,
"Wow Sue that's racist" before they had to dodge again from another punch this time separating them. As the kids dodged yet another punch to their surprise the troll reached forward and grabbed Susan midair where she couldn't dodge and slammed her into the ground.
"*cough* apparently you're still angry about the whole clawing your arm thing, hasn't anybody told you grudges are bad GAH!" she yelled out as the trolled lifted her up and slammed her into the ground again. Lost in their rage Harry and Neville charged forward intent on freeing Susan which they did by digging their claws into the trolls arm causing him to lift it in pain before flinging his arm forward and throwing all 3 towards the wall with the prefect who was too busy protecting Hermione from the flying debris to do anything.
As the troll lumbered forward the three stood up and glared at it ready to keep fighting before the troll was suddenly stopped by a small blast towards it's back.
Septima Vector was mad. On her first day as a head of house her students were in front of her obviously hurt and while they looked a little weird to her it wasn't her main concern. Her main concern was the 12 foot troll harming your students. She reached down and picked up a fallen stone from the ground in front of her before tapping it with her wand and banishing it towards the trolls back and upon impact it exploded.
Once the trolls attention was on her she only said two words that sent chills down the spines of the students.
"Hands Off" before a mass of stones were summoned in front of her in a line and she waved her wand just barely touching the stones as her wand glided over before all of the stones had explosion runes on them and then banishing them all directly towards the center of the trolls chest.
After a series of explosions blinding the students they heard a thump before looking at the troll who fell forward dead. Even with it's resilient skin it couldn't hold up to the many blasts and their concussive force breaking it's chest open before eventually blowing up it's heart. After that the teacher ran up to her students before kneeling down.
"Is everybody ok? How badly are you hurt?" Susan just gave a weak grunt as the boy's and her own transformation faded away into nothingness before saying,
"I'll be fine in the morning we heal pretty quickly how's Penelope and Granger?" The teacher scoffed at the answer but before anybody could say anything the other teachers charged in wands out ready for a fight but stopped upon seeing the dead troll and injured students. The headmaster stepped up and address the other professor in the room,
"Professor Vector just what happened here?" and seeing that she was being addressed the Professor turned towards the headmaster and said,
"Headmaster I was escorting my students alongside the Slytherin students towards the common room when suddenly the sorted hat started yelling out that a student was in the girls restroom and addressed it towards Harry, Neville, and Susan here who went off to go and grab her. From what I can tell MS Penelope followed after to make sure they were ok after making sure the students were safe and secured I immediately came here and saw the troll cornering these students before I fired a rock laced with an explosion rune onto it's back. After it's attention was on me I fired more explosive rocks towards the troll essentially destroying it's heart. After it started to fall I summoned it's close towards myself preventing it from falling on the students and causing it to land facedown like so."
Astonished at the description Dumbledore was about to ask the students for details before Snape snapped out,
"Of course Potter would disregard a teacher's orders and try to play the hero" But before he could snarl even more he was confronted by a slap from The new head of house who snarled back at him,
"I wouldn't talk professor given that you also disregarded orders and abandoned your students leaving me to take them into my common room to ensure that that are safe. And how dare you belittle Mr. Potter and his friends for coming to another students aid! If it weren't for them buying me time to get here we could have a dead student on our hands"
Snape was to shocked to say anything holding his cheek and could only listen as the teacher snapped back at him. Most people were too intimidated by his demeanor to say anything but deep inside he knew now that he would have to watch it with the potters and their friends lest he says the wrong thing to the wrong person now.
"Now if you'll excuse me I have to take these students to the infirmary where we can make sure that they will be ok" Professor Vector said before marching off with the limping kids behind her as the left the bathroom and ended up in the infirmary where Madame Pomfrey immediately set out to work.
.

.
Meanwhile as all this was going on Professor Quirrell was rising off of the ground.
"Good you fool, it's about time you've gotten up now come we have work to do" A hiss was heard in the hall coming from seemingly nobody before the Professor responded,
"Yes my master, I'm sorry for the wait but I had to ensure that nobody was coming back"
"DO NOT PATRONIZE ME FOOL I AM WELL AWARE OF YOUR REASONS" the voice yelled out causing the professor to wince but before he could respond he heard a humming coming from the directions of the doors and he turned around to see what looked like a shadow walking towards him.
"hmmm hmmm hmm hmm" The humming continued from the shadow as it got closer while Quirrell kept backing away. And with each step the shadow took solid form starting from the feet before finally ending at the face revealing Persephone Potter standing in front of him just feet away from the man.
"M-m-ms. Potter what was that and wha-what are you doing here?" The professor asked terrified of her entrance. Persephone just gave a serene smile towards him before saying,
"Oh don't worry professor I'm not here for you, I mean I thought about it but then decided to many problems would come up from that and I'm not taking any extra chances so I'm just here for the wraith in the back of your head!" She finished getting a slightly insane grin at the idea of how much fun this was.
'Ah I love intimidating someone.' And seeing that he was caught the professor quickly spun out his wand and fired a curse towards the Potter girl but his eyes widened at seeing the curse just fade away harmlessly alongside all the other curse he sent.
"AVADA KADAVA!" he shouted out before dropping his wand also seeing that fade away as it reached within a foot of her. She just smiled before snapping her fingers and Quirrell dropped to the ground while in it's place where his head once stood floated a black wraith trying to flee but unable to.
"Now I know that you can't talk right now but it's not a problem after all you won't remember this until I want you to." She smiled reaching a hand out and the wraith shrunk until it was the size of a marble.
"Now I'm going to alter your memories and let you live for now but just know you're on a timer, even if I didn't get involved anymore than this which I will be doing you wouldn't be able to stop Harry now much less Susan or Neville even knowing that stupid prophecy which doesn't even apply anymore. So enjoy your time now and hopefully some part f your subconscious makes the decision to stay gone but I seriously doubt it" She finished before flicking the ball out of her hands and watched it fly away into the distance with altered memories of his defeat.
"Now he'll think he confronted a talentless ignorant Harry rather than me while as for you well, you won't even know you met this so called dark lord in the first place and will just think you applied to be teacher because why not keep you around." As she got to work about altering his memories she thought about fixing his whole Unicorn blood curse along with his decaying body before deciding not to.
'He brought it upon himself oh well' she thought slightly vindictive and as she finished her job she walked away fading into her room before thinking.
'I wonder how Blaise is doing right now?'
.

It was carnage, fires were spread around the fallen castle as towers crumbled in the distance revealing two figures where the throne room used to be. As one figure tried crawling away from the other the standing figure spoke up,
"Now I'm generally not this violent but when I found out what you did just to make a kid suffer well I'll admit, I just lost control." Blaise spoke up to the fallen form of the god of fate in this universe as he suddenly twisted around and tried to stab a knife into Blaise's chest. Blaise easily caught the wrist an inch from his chest before tossing the god into the remains of it's throne shattering the rest of it.
The god spit out some ichor before saying,
"Damn if I knew it was you screwing up things here I would have been more careful about it." Blaise just sighed crouching in front of the god before pointing at him,
"Man that's my problem with a lot of you gods, your so damn cocky about how you treat so called mortals and play with their lives. I mean look at me I'm technically a mortal but I just kicked your ass across your realm. Now here's how it's going to play out, while we are here you won't be playing with any mortal lives, I can't control when I'm gone but you will quite literally let fate play it's course instead of playing with it." And with that he simply walked off leaving the broken god behind to heal before fading away much like Persephone did. After he was gone the god of fate started to laugh,
"Fine I'll play your game now, but only because I can tell in the future you'll have more than enough troubles to worry about, Dear Protector" before the god passed out from exhaustion as the fires of his castle burned around him.

Meanwhile Daphne Greengrass was wondering around the Hogwarts common room after the whole fight with a troll was done. She felt a smile on her face seeing the teacher snap at her head of house before stopping at seeing a worn trail in the carpet leading towards the rooms. Out of curiosity she followed one of the trails seeing it lead to a room that said 'Harry' and at the base of the door she saw a black scale that she bent down and reached. As soon as she grabbed it she nearly dropped it due to the small shock that it gave her before it faded away and for some unknown reason she put it in her pocket and walked back towards her house.
'Maybe it can be my own good luck charm?' She thought as the head of this house arrived to escort the students back to their common room.

Alright Year one is done! Now I can get to the arcs I have legitimate plans for! Now I know some of you may be a little annoyed at how short year 1 was but also I personally don't like it and getting rid of the stone and Voldemort gave me no reason to continue the story. I'll have the next chapter up soon and please read and review! I promise that the other arcs won't be this short and be an actual arc! I mostly used this year to introduce characters that will be important later on!
