Dumbledore's pov
Flooing to Mrs. Figg's home when the blood wards failed as I stepped out of the floo, it lit up again with Alastor Moody, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Remus Lupin and Sirius Black followed.
"He insisted on coming with Dumbledore." Moody said, pointing to Black.
"We have no time for this lets go ." I said as I took out my Deluminator to turn off the street lights before walking to number four privet drive before Moody told them to stop
"Hold it. We're not alone. It looks like Figg is right. I see three girls no younger than seven-teen the blond haired and the brown and pink haired girls are down stairs in the living room. and the one with a red cloak is up stairs with Potter, oh both of them are coming down stairs now." Moody said
"Well, let's go say hello to them then." Kinsley said as he went to the door to cast the unlocking charm before moody could stop him
"If you're here for the boy, come in. just leave us normal people alone, you can have him." someone said As the door flew open and a red blur slammed into us Knocking us down As we picked ourselves up I looked at Moody glaring at a down Kinsley, Sirius got up looking around shocked while Remus was coughing up 'rose petals?' I thought impressed with the transmutation
"Kingsley you fool what have I told you about CONSTANT VIGILANCE! We barely have any information about these girls and you go bursting in. What are they teaching you at the academy? We are Luck they decided to run." Moody said
"Well why didn't you warn us then?" Kingsley ask as he got up holding his side
"Again I didn't know the girl with the red cloak could transform herself into flower pedals and charge at us. And where did Black go?" Moody said
but before any one can answer that the Dursleys came out to see what was going on. "Oh it's you." Petunia said with a sneer
" Evening Petunia, any idea on what happened here? and where Harry went off to" I ask with a grandfather smile
"My former sister's brat attracted those monsters and they attacked my boy so for all I care he can get lost, and your people can keep him because he is not welcome here any more." she spat out at them
"Now Petunia Harry is still your, '' `` NO, NO, It thanks to That poison you call magic that filth took my sister away and it nearly took my son. So no more of it, it won't be allowed in this house anymore. If he comes back here that poison better be gone." Petunia interrupted him
'Sadly that can't happen Petunia. I still need him with it. ' I thought
"That right we tried to beat it out of him but," " Hold it, did you say beat it out of him." Kingsley interrupted Vernon while going into Auror mode
"DURSLEY do you have any idea what you could have done, if Potter popped he could've destroyed everything here to London you fool!" Moody yell at Vernon
"Yeah right like a freak like him could have done that." Vernon said as Sirus appeared and gave him a punch to the jaw before picking him up off the ground
"Call my godson that one more time and you will regret it, Dursley." Sirius said before walking away
Sirius's pov A few moments ago
don't know what hit us, only thing I knew it had Harry, the good news was they were easy to track as they left a trail of red flower petals, But half way down the street the trail ended, so I quickly changed into Patfoot so I can gain their scents, sniffing around to see where there scents have gone found the scents leading to a park nearby. where I caught three more 'But one of them appeared is cat-like? they must've been around cats a lot or one of them was a Animagus?' I thought
Then there senses led to the road before losing them. 'Dang it!' I thought as I changed back to human, looking around and saw a bus station nearby and went over to looked the schedule as I read it realizing 'the bus just left.' I thought as I angrily kicked the ground and ripping off a map before rushing back to the others when I heard Vernon call Harry a freak and went to give him a piece of my mind in the form of my fist before returning to headquarters before I did something bad.
'You know those kids are probably better than the Dursleys.' I thought
while entering the dining room in Grimmauld place, I spotted a white bird who I immediately recognized her. "Hedwig, what are you doing here girl, is Harry safe?" I said as the owl hold up a letter before l grabbed it and read it quickly. After reading it I release a breath I've been holding as the others return with a few things
"What is this?" I said before recognizing a few items like the Fire Bolt.
"Harry's things we got them from the Dursleys just in case they get any ideas. What did you get there?" Remus said as he noticed the note from Harry
"It's from Harry, I think he wrote it before we got there." I said, showing them the note.
"Are you sure it's from Potter? It could've been the girls, who could have forced Potter to write it." Moody said before Hedwig took a lunged at him getting a "hey" from him and a glare from the bird
"Hedwig did Harry went with them willingly." I ask her Hedwig bobbed her head yes "So what I think happened was the Girls saved him from the Dementors and brought Harry and his cousin to his relatives home who basically sold Harry and the girls out when we came as the wards broke. with the darkness and we didn't announce to ourselves when we showed up they probably thought we were Death Eaters and they made a run for it." I explained to them
"So did anyone notice something seems off about the Dursleys? Or was it just me." Kingsly said as he set down painfully
"Are You alright there Shacklebolt?" Remus said
" I'm good just got the wind kicked out of me is all. Whoever these girls are they sure do pack a mean wallop." he said to Remus
"All right then, and for your question, yeah I noticed it as well. They seemed like they were in a trance similar to those who are under Veritaserum but when I tested them I found no trace of it in them though they did seem on what the muggles call hypnotized." Remus said as he explained what hypnotized was.
"Just who are these girls? First one of them destroyed two of those demons, then one of them can make you be honest and now at least one of them can transform into flower petals. What else can these girls do? And where did that squib go?" Moody said as Figg walked in with the rest of the order.
"What happened here?" "Where is Harry?" "Why do you look like you guys rolled in a rose bush?" The questions came from Figg Mrs. Weasley and Tonks.
"What happened was I think A certain someone forgot to give out the need to know information. Apparently those teens were filled with surprises." Moody said glaring at Figg
"And I wouldn't say rolled in one, more like A rose tornado hit us." Remus said to Tonks who was helping picking rose petals off himself.
"And Harry, I think he took a ride with his new friends after his relatives kicked him out." I said to the others
"Now Sirius we don't know for sure. The Dursleys were under a lot of stress. I'm sure-" "Not this again Dumbledore they practically confessed to attempting to turn Harry into an Obscurial " I interrupted him as the others gaps at the word Obscurial
"Wait, the twins said they had bars on he's window in his second year but I thought they were just trying to get out of trouble." Mrs. Weasley said shocked
"Hold on, did you say you the Orders very best wizards we got had there butts kicked by a bunch of kids." Tonks said before fallen out of her seat with laughter
"Hey We got caught off guard and we weren't looking for a fight and according to Mad-eye the one with the red hood transfigured herself and the others into flower pedals and ran us over." I embarrassingly explained
"Look It was a big misunderstanding. It was dark, the wards just crashed, for all they knew we were Death Eaters. They got out quickly which was through us, though I have to admit I'm a little impressed by there skills." I said
"Aye there skills are impressive even I myself is considering on recruiting them but there is still a chance for them being Death Eaters for all we know they're playing the long game." Moody said to the order
"Wait the red one, that's the one I said that destroyed the Dementors!" Mrs Figg said
"Good to know. Now I know which one to thank for saving my godson the next time we see them. Oh yeah I tracked them to a city bus station nearby so they could be anywhere So next time they show up again Let's try to be friendly to them this time when we meet them." I said as Moody took the map and begin to on plan on stationing a few people to nearby bus stations and other places like Diagon alley.
'Harry, wherever you are please be safe.' I thought
Harry's pov some time ago
The first thing I noticed after my vision cleared was that we were half way down the street. "Hold on weren't we just." I said looking back at the others and noticing Yang and Neo looking a little green while Ruby seemed tired. I went over to check on them " Hey are you three alright." I asked them
"We're alright, just give us a minute."Ruby said while taking a few breaths.
"What happened back there? The first thing I knew was the door was opening then my vision turned red and it felt like we were moving fast." I said before Ruby took a few breath before explaining
"That was a semblance. It is a special power that uses aura, a manifestation of the soul which anyone has, it being human animal or Faunus. the Exception is the monstrous Grimm who lack a soul."
"So your power is petals?" I ask Ruby
"It's technically speed actually" she corrected him
"what about you two what's your semblance was it? And what are Grimm " I asked Yang and Neo
(Asked us again when we meet with the others so can hear it all at once. because As far as all we know the party guest may be coming for seconds.) Neo thought out
" Why did we run? We could've taken them? Yang asked her sister looking disappointed of running from a fight
"Well for one we don't know how many were there and I didn't trust Harry's relatives not attacking us in the back." Ruby answered bitter at the thought of my relatives
"Hey you don't need to worry about me Rose i'm not there any more." I said taking her hand giving it a quick squeeze before letting go
"You know Neo you seem very into it back there." Yang said to Her who thought for a second
(I used to have a friend name Triva Vanilla her family didn't treat her well either the last time I've visited she wasn't there. look It was along time ago I can't change the past are we going or not.) Neo thought out before walking before we followed As we made it to the park to meet the others, as soon as we spotted them, Weiss and Jaune walked over while Blake tackled Yang into a hug
"What happened, why is Mr. Potter still here with us?" Weiss ask her friends
"His relatives weren't treating him well and we ran into some Locals." Ruby said as the Remnants had their reunion I was trying to think of a plan. Before he could they heard the roaring of a city bus coming down over but realizing they don't have either the correct currecy or not enough of it then Neo coughed to get our attention and pulled out a wallet filled with pounds
"You know if we weren't on the run and back home I would have a few things to say though if I believed on where you got that from you off the hook for now. gust no more got it." Ruby said before Neo saluted as I tossed the beanie at Blake before fixing the cap as the bus pulled up.
" Good evening looks like it's your lucky day. This was my last lap of the day, so where are you kids going." the bus driver said
" Charing Cross Road." I said as we got on board
'And that's how we got here on a bus to the Leaky Cauldron. A lot has happened in one day. At first I thought it was going to be an ordinary day but the next thing I know I was attacked by Dementors and saved by a red cape young woman.'speaking of which as I was interrupted from my thoughts by a sudden weight on my shoulder l look over and saw the girl herself fast asleep on my shoulder I couldn't be sure as her hood was covering her face but the light snoring gave it away. Looking behind my seat saw Jaune and Neo, the latter with her back towards the window with her arms around our seat and Yang and Blake's seating next to each other who were both out cold. Jaune was leaning over himself trying not to lose his stomach contents. Weiss who was at the right of was I think is looking at the scenery.
I turn back at Ruby who is still dosing off on my shoulder 'Oh I can hear Sirius now telling me now that I should be any other guy and enjoying have a cute girl on his shoulder.' I thought to myself
"Now approaching Charing Cross Road." the bus driver said as I try to wake Ruby
"Five more minutes Yang." she mumbled before pulling my arm close to herself
"Sorry Rose but I'm not Yang." I said flustering
Then those silver orbs flatter open before moving her head to where her chin now sits on my shoulder before looking down on what was she holding and how close it was to her then stare back at me before turning red as her cape and jumping back with a yelp waking Yang who got up accidentally head butting Blake waking her up as I heard so laughter and looked over at Neo was enjoying herself.
"What happened, what did I miss?" Weiss ask half awake
"You didn't miss anything we're just almost at the destination."I said to her
"Ruby, did you scream?" Yang ask Ruby while holding her own head
Ruby and I shared a look "Its just a nightmare Yang I'm fine." she lied as Yang gave her a are you sure look before turning away from her sister
The rest of the ride was quiet so when we stopped we got off quickly before I lead the others to the Leaky Cauldron "Mr. Potter, why are you taking us to that broken down building?" Weiss said
'What why couldn't they see the inn but they did said they weren't around here I'll ask them later. I thought "You have to trust me on this." I said as I offered my hand, Ruby being more trusting was the first to take it before Yang place her hand on her sister's shoulder followed by the others Weiss being the last as we stepped in the inn before looking back at the girls and Jaune who were looking around surprised
" Do you want me to help you six get a room here?" I ask as I head to the counter
" No Harry, we're fine. The bus nap we had helped a little bit." Ruby answered
"Ok then if you say so know if any of you passed out I'm dropping you off in the inn." I said As I took them to the back alley before taking my wand out and tapping a few bricks as the gateway opened looking back and saw the aw in their eyes "Welcome to Diagon alley." I said
