Harry entered the dorm by himself hearing Ron talking softly to Hermione. He shook his head before heading over to his bed again. Hee flopped onto the bed only to hear a soft voice call him. He glanced and saw Neville looking over at him.
"Why are you still awake?" Harry asked with a frown. Neville smiled a bit and shook his head.
"Was still worried about you and wanted to wait to be sure that you were fine." Neville explained as Harry nodded.
"I'll be fine. Dealing with what is going on slowly." Harry explained as Neville frowned at the door then looked at Harry.
"Why didn't Ron come up with you?" Neville asked softly.
"He is comforting Hermione cause she triggered a bit of anger in me." Harry admitted. Neville frowned but nodded.
"Well rest and if you need someone to talk to I'm willing to listen." Neville offered. Harry smiled at this.
"Thank you, Neville, you are a good friend especially as I do not always treat you the best myself." Harry said then walked over to his bed and collapsed onto it with a groan. He allowed his eyes to slide shut and to just pass out where he was.
A couple of hours later Harry awakened again and climbed out of the bed. He glanced around surprised at how empty the dorm room was then looked outside his eyes going a bit wide.
"Oh hell... Welp looks like I missed my morning classes." Harry muttered and rubbed his face as he moved out of the room. He glanced around seeing a few students working in the common room but otherwise it is very quiet.
He went and gathered the supplies he would need for the rest of the day before heading out of the room. He could feel his hunger gnawing at him but decided to ignore it for now. He could tell it would soon be lunch time and that would be when he would eat. He walked along the halls then frowned remembering what he had been planning to look up.
He explored for awhile then paused noticing a door he hadn't really noticed before. He slowly opened the door and glanced around the dark room. He frowned and started to walk into the room more Slowly the candles lit around him and he saw a few instruments laying out in the open. He saw a few tables and chairs about. He slowly walked more into the room glancing around some more.
There was a great harp in the middle of the room and near it on a table was a hand harp. Harry frowned as he moved towards that harp the symbols carved into it seeming familiar. After a few moments of looking at the dusty thing, he turned away to notice a huge white sheet covering something along one of the walls. He walked towards it in curiosity before tearing off the sheet to see what was under it.
Harry stared as he revealed a large organ resting against one wall. He grinned then and lightly ran his hands over the keys. He glanced at the bench and pulled it out before sitting at it and grinning darkly. Slowly he started playing a dark sinister smile spreading across his lips as he kept playing losing himself into the music. He ran his fingers over the keys so glad the instrument didn't need to be tuned.
He paused after a bit and grinned so glad he had found this room. Slowly he stood from the bench before turning back to the doorway he had left open. He blinked seeing twin redheads looking in the doorway and groaned. He moved calmly over to the twins and looked at them.
"Is there a reason you are sitting there?" He asked the two who looked at each other, then at Harry.
"One how did you find a room we have yet to find and two when did you learn to play an instrument?" Fred asked. Harry smiled a bit and chuckled softly.
"The first just trying a random door. The second is a bit more complex. It is something I knew ages ago in a different life." Harry replied with a shrug. The twins stared at him then looked at each other and shrugged.
"If you say so, Harry. Anyways what instrument is that? It looks like a strange piano." George asked looking the organ over. Harry blinked then looked at the two.
"You've never seen an organ before? Actually considering it is primarily seen in the Christian and Catholic churches I guess it is understandable." Harry muttered and walked out of the room. "Come on you two wannabe demons. I am not leaving you in this room to damage those lovely instruments."
"But instruments could fuel our pranks!" One of the twins said with a laugh causing Harry to smack the back of their heads. He waited till they walked away from the door then shut the door and glared at them.
"Touch anything in there and you will not enjoy what I do." Harry growled another warning to the two then headed for the great hall. He entered the great hall seeing all the students then moved to sit next to Ron and Hermione.
"So why did neither of you wake me up?" He asked though there was no irritation or anger in his voice. Ron and Hermione looked up at him and smiled a moment.
"You needed the sleep mate. After what happened last night." Ron pointed out softly. He glanced over at the teachers. Harry looked and saw Umbridge sitting there again and glaring at him. She was obviously fuming making him attempt to hide a dark chuckle. He then glanced and nodded to Luna before spotting Draco and grinning again. He needed to mess with the chosen of Farore a few times before he woke up.
Harry started to chuckle as he gathered his food. Food was something he would always enjoy but maybe that would be a great way to mess with Malfoy. He glanced towards the twins and started to chuckle even more. He had all the parts needed to mess with Malfoy.
"Harry what are you planning? We haven't seen a grin like this on your face before." George asked noticing Harry's grin.
"Yeah, it looks like one of our prank planning grins." Fred added causing Harry to chuckle.
"Yes well I have someone I feel deserves some heavy duty pranking. Considering our past." Harry replied while unconsciously he rubbed at his chest again and shuddered a moment.
Shaking his head he stood once he finished eating. He was deep in thought though as he moved toward his next class. He suddenly started to chuckle as he imagined Malfoy's face as the plate in front of him became a replica of the twilight mirror.
As the day passed Harry continued to work on his plans to prank Draco. A strange stone-like mirror, a wooden sword. Harry chuckled to himself with his plans as he finally headed for dinner with a grin. He would have to make sure that bloody princess didn't take too much offense at his plans first though. He sighed realizing he'd have to temper his desires so as not to push Malfoy too far before he was ready.
Harry sat down and ignored those around him as he frowned. He glanced around as others started to wander into the great hall. He waited till he saw Luna sit at her house table then slowly stood a dark smile crossing his face. He glanced around glad to see Luna was concentrating on her meal so not watching him. He looked back and forth then took a slow deep breath gathering his magic for a moment.
He grinned then suddenly vanished from where he was standing only to appear directly behind Luna still grinning darkly. Malfoy looked up at just the moment Harry appeared behind Luna and stiffened before leaping up from his table and charging at Harry making him laugh seeing that. Luna looked up and noticed then glanced behind her and groaned. Draco leaped at Harry causing him to chuckle and catch the smaller boy. He lifted Draco till they were eye level and raised a single eyebrow.
"And what was that supposed to do?" Harry asked Draco still chuckling at the other boys attempt to attack him. He was ignoring the teachers that were moving towards him as he waited for Draco to respond.
"You will not touch her!" Draco snarled and Harry shook his head as he lowered Draco to the ground smirking.
"And I've told you I have no plans to harm the little princess." Harry stated causing Luna to roll her eyes and sigh in frustration as she looks at all the staring students.
"You just have to make a show don't you?" Luna asked softly bringing Harry's attention to everything that is going on then shrugs.
"Meh everyone needs to be in awe of my power." Harry stated still smirking as Draco growls at him.
"I'm sorry to interfere, Mr. Potter, Mr. Malfoy, and Miss Lovegood, but we need to speak with Harry on what he just did." Albus requested bringing Harry's attention over to him. Harry frowned as he saw an attempt at a hidden sly look from Umbridge. Harry groaned a bit at this and sighed then nodded.
"Fine fine, when will we be talking or am I going to not get to eat?" Harry asked dryly. Albus smiled seeing the clear points of Harry's past life coming out and glancing between the other two standing there. Draco snarling a bit at Harry but Harry ignoring it like the other boy was harmless.
"Eat, but after please come to my office. I'm sure Gummy Bears will help you get in." Albus said causing Harry to chuckle and look at Albus with a nod.
"Of course Professor I shall see you there." Harry turned to look at Luna a moment. "I need to ask you something but I guess it will wait till tomorrow." Harry said before walking back over to his seat.
"Harry, how did you apparate across the great hall?" Hermione asked as soon as he sat down. He noticed everyone paying attention to him and rolled his eyes before looking at Hermione.
"I didn't apparate Hermione. I used something from my past." Harry explained with a shrug as several other students frowned in confusion and Hermione leaned forward. Harry seeing Hermione's desire for more information caused him to groan a bit.
"Let me eat and having my meeting with the Headmaster first Hermione. Then you can interrogate me." Harry sighed and rolled his eyes as Ron just shook his head with a chuckle at Hermione's narrowed eyes.
"Be ready for a lot of questions then mister. I am going to have many more questions about this by then." Hermione warned Harry causing him to groan and rub at his face a bit. He looked at Ron before he started to fill his plate then eat. Really there were so many things he could do now that are not regulated let alone were completely unknown in this world, but the toad would likely try to classify them as dark in order to arrest and remove him from the school.
Harry ate his expression becoming dark as he thought on the situation at hand. Slowly he shook his head once more. He would face the consequences of what he had done later. He stretched as the meal vanished and dessert appeared. Harry looked over the desserts with a slight frown. He really wished there were a few less pastry based options. He sighed a bit and finally grabbed his usual treacle tart and ate it quietly. Once he finished eating he stood and nodded to his friends.
"I'll see you after I am done talking with the teachers." Harry said and nodded to Hermione and Ron before heading out of the great hall. He walked through the halls heading straight to the Headmaster's office. He frowned as he grumbled a bit. The toad would definitely be trying to get him thrown out for all this. Harry laughed at the thought imagining what he'd actually do if he was thrown out. Oh, the toad would not like those results even if she attempted to have his wand broken. Oh if she did that she'd learn all that he could do without it. She would end up screaming with fear and crying in pain. He started to chuckle as he slowly shut his eyes imagining the toad buried up to her head in the sand as the sweltering desert so slowly rose to its zenith.
Harry sighed as he shook himself off and looked at the gargoyle in thought. Did he want to give it the password or did he just want to threaten it again. He sighed after a moment and sighed a bit sadly as he looked at the Gargoyle.
"Gummy Bears." Harry stated and watched as the Gargoyle leaped to the side. Harry smirked and walked up and into the Headmaster's office where he sat to await the teachers. He glanced around and his eyes landed on Fawkes who was sitting on his perch. He frowned a moment looking at the Phoenix that began to sing a bit. He shifted a bit uncomfortably in his seat as the bird sang.
"Fawkes sorry to request this but can you not sing. That amount of goddess given light sorta bothers me." Harry admitted as he shifts a bit more. The sorting hat looks at Harry or as much as it can.
"Whatever do you mean Mr. Potter?" Harry chuckled darkly a bit a smirk gracing his lips. He glanced over at the sorting hat then leaned back.
"Oh, let's just say my last life was tainted in many many ways and you heard me, both of you heard me talk to Albus about it this morning." Harry pointed out causing the hat to laugh.
"True you did say that." the Hat admitted as Fawkes hopped onto Harry and nuzzled into him. Harry sighed and ran his hands over the bird's feathers.
"Why do you still like me, Fawkes?" Harry asked the phoenix softly as he shut his eyes. His mind going into the far past and all he had done. Fawkes began to softly sing again and Harry blinked surprised that this one did not bother him as much as the first had. He slowly opened his eyes and looked down at Fawkes a bit.
"I'm surprised you are not more upset with me than you were before." Harry said to the bird as the door behind him opened and in walked Albus Dumbledore, Umbridge, Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape, Filius Flitwick, and Pomona Sprout. He kept petting the phoenix that was still singing and watched Umbridge's face twist into a snarl.
"Harry, how did you apparate across the hall?" Albus asked as Fawked took off from Harry and landed on Albus' shoulder. Harry smiled at Fawkes then looked between all the teachers.
"I did no apparate. I do not know how to apparate." Harry stated. He looked at the disbelieving faces of Severus and Umbridge while a couple of them nod a bit.
"Then how did you move from one spot in the great hall to the other?" Severus asked in a growl as Harry leans back a bit and shakes his head.
"It's an ancient skill that I have. Anyone gifted by the goddesses could learn it with effort." Harry stated with a shrug. He glanced around the room with a bit of a smirk.
"Tell me where did you learn such a dark skill or I will have you expelled and your wand broken!" Snapped Umbridge. Harry tilted his head as she growled at him. He narrowed his yellow eyes and slowly stood all the other teachers in the office backing away a bit as the air became heavier.
"You think those threats scare me? Go ahead snap my wand see if I care? I have no need for it. I have magic you would never understand." Harry growled at the woman. She snorted a bit and glared at him.
"There is no life of comfort without a wand. You are foolish to believe you can use magic without one." Umbridge growled. Harry rolled his eyes and smiled a moment.
"Really? Life can be very comfortable without magic but I'd rather it with. Since so much of my nature is connected to it, but truly give me proof that what I did is dark?" Harry requested as he walked over to Umbridge.
"Shut up Mr. Potter and tell us where you learned such an evil skill!" Umbridge sputtered. Harry laughed and shook his head clenching his right fist causing the mark on the back of his hand to start glowing drawing most of the teachers attention to it and causing Severus to back away from Harry.
"The teleportation of my people is not a dark art. It is a simple non-elemental and neutral in nature. Most magic is neutral in nature and it is how the person uses it that dictates it's direction." Harry stated calmly causing Umbridge to look at the other teachers.
"See he needs to be placed on trial for dark magic and removed from this school." Umbridge shouted making Harry frown.
"For what believing most magic is neutral in nature and not evil? There are evil spells. The three unforgivables for one. They are nothing but evil. Though the only reason I believe the killing curse is is because of its addictive nature. If it was not addictive it would be a good way of killing animals and even others in a war situation without putting them through pain." Harry pointed out causing several of the teacher's nod in understanding.
"What are you talking about you foolish boy. All magic is defined into dark and light or have you not read my book for class." Umbridge snaps. Harry groans and looks at the woman a ball of energy starting to form in one hand as his temper raises.
"No, you listen here. Magic requires will and mind but dark and light are not part of the majority. The only true light spell I know off hand is the Patronus the dark are primarily the 3 unforgivable, but since you want to limit the students and turn all of them into sheep that have no mind of their own. I can understand the desire to blind them to the truth." Harry snarled as he lifted his hand the ball spinning slowly and drawing Umbridge's attention.
"What is that and where is your wand?" She yelps and Harry smiles darkly his eyes starting to glow gold. He stepped towards her a bit.
"Plus you have no idea what darkness is. The curse is awake again and the cycle restarted. Until it is stopped the whole world is threatened. Now shut up about your foolish ideas and get a proper teacher into the Defense course or stay out of my way." Harry snarled then leaned next to her head. "And if I find you have used another of those quills, and I will trust me you will not like the result." He whispered into her ear his voice dripping with pure venom. He then turned nodded to the other teachers a moment and waited as he snuffed the ball out of existence.
"Go on Harry it's obvious at this point that you are not a danger to the school." Albus said and Harry bowed to the man before turning and walking out of the office and towards the Gryffindor common room.
