Harry sighed as the Technomancers of Hogwarts sat in Isabel's Impala with their friends and colleagues who help in the Bunker with their projects. Marietta Edgecombe looked out a window as they flew over Hogwarts. "Are all Muggle vehicles like this?"

"No," said Su. "This one has been heavily modified by magic."

"Only to fly," said Isabel. "And to not be scratched up or damaged. Engine is one hundred percent normal."

"Bullshit," muttered Harry, fully aware of everything she does to her Baby.

"I heard that, Kid!"

"Bite me!"

"You're unappetizing!"

"It's going to be a long ride," said Blaise as he rubbed his temples.

"Not really," said Luna. "Harry is going to Charge us there."

"Wait," said Susan. "How? We're all in the…" She noticed Hermione gripping the arms of her seat as well as Parvati and paled.

"He's going to Charge the whole car with us inside," said Pansy. "He did it once right before Professor Black's trial."

"Yeah," said Draco. "But with only five people on board. One of us should give him a power boost, just in case."

"You're not filling me with confidence here, Malfoy," exclaimed Susan.

"Calm down," said Daphne. "And breathe. Charging is just like Apparating except without the gut wrenching feeling."

"Instead it gives you a massive headache," said Parvati.

"Grand," said Marietta. "Anyone got a migraine draught?"

"Fresh out," said Isabel. "But Danzo, or whoever greets us, will hand you four some when we arrive."

"Sakura went into extensive detail when she told her uncle how it felt the few times I've Charged with her," said Harry. He gripped Susan's hand. "You'll be fine, don't worry." She gave him a smile of thanks.

"Alright," said Cindy over a radio. "Telemonitor is up and ready."

"Take us through, Sulu," said Pansy with a grin. Hermione and Isabel chuckled as Harry rolled his eyes before gripping the driver and passenger seats in front of him. Blaise and Draco placed their hands on his back and transferred energy into him as he Charged the Impala through a giant monitor Isabel constructed above the Bunker for when they wanted to travel.

"When did you have time to make that," asked Blaise as they landed outside a building in Tokyo from an equally large monitor at its entrance.

"She gets insomnia," said Harry. "When that happens she works on whatever is on her mind until she tires out. Sometimes she only gets an hours sleep from it because she loses track of time."

"Shut up," said Isabel. She removed her seatbelt and got out of the car. Harry helped those feeling uneasy out and turned towards the building when a purple missile knocked him to the ground.

"Harry," shouted Sakura as she tackled her crush with a hug. Blaise and Draco exchanged a look.

"She's deceptively strong," said Draco.

"You don't know the half of it," said Isabel with a grin as she picked them up. "Take it easy, kiddo. You almost gave him a concussion." Harry shook his head as Sakura smiled.

"Sorry," she exclaimed.

"Sakura," said Haruka as she stood by the door to the building. "That is no way to act in front of guests." She gestured to the group. Sakura blushed before rushing to her aunt's side. Haruka smiled at the group. "Welcome to Akagi Industries, everyone." She bowed to them and Sakura mimicked her. Harry, Hermione and Isabel bowed back, everyone else mirroring the three. Lena leaned towards Harry as Haruka led them inside.

"She's beautiful. Not as much as your mum, but still beautiful."

"Lena," said Harry. "I wish you wouldn't make comments like that about Mom."

"I can't help it. She's well fit."

"Again. Stop."

"Leave him alone," whispered Tonks. "And it's not like Professor MacGrath will give you the time of day, anyway. You're a student, she's a teacher."

"Not the issue here…"

"Oh," said Haruka as she turned to Harry. "Harry, Danzo said he wanted to speak with you. He's up in his office."

"Is it alright if I go, Izzy?" Isabel sighed.

"I wish you'd stop calling me that. But sure. You know your way around. I'll monitor the brats here."

"We resemble that," said Luna and Parvati with impish grins. Sakura glared at them. Padma sighed before turning to Sakura.

"Try not to kill my sister, today, please."

"I make no promises," said Sakura. Harry shook his head before turning to Hermione.

"I know, I know," said the bushy haired bookworm. "I'll keep my eye on them."

"Thank you, and make sure Lena and Tonks keep Gred and Forge from touching anything without permission. I'm off." Harry Charged through the camera feeds and up to the top floor where Danzo's office was located. He knocked and waited for a reply.

"Come in," said Danzo on the other side of the door. Harry entered the office and saw Danzo speaking with a man in a United States military uniform. "Ah, hello, Harry."

"Hello, Danzo." He glanced at the man in front of him.

"Ah, yes. Harry this is a good friend of mine from the United States Air Force." The man stood up and walked to Harry with his hand extended.

"Call me Stephen."

"Harry," said Harry as he shook the man's hand.

"If you don't mind my saying, what you and your uncle have been doing is admirable. Not a lot of people can wage a two man war against an entire terrorist organization like you have."

"It hasn't been just us. The NSA and others with our abilities have been fighting them as well."

"Ah, yes. The other Technomancers in the world."

"You're Magical?"

"No, but I've had a few under my command, and those like me high enough in rank are made aware of the Magical World in case one of your wars spills over into ours and we need to take appropriate action to try and limit civilian casualties."

"Meaning…"

"Meaning we'll figure out which side we should be on and attack the opposing forces. We're not in the business of wiping out US citizens. At least my men aren't."

"That's good to know. What designs were you looking at?"

"The one that benefits my branch of the military the most. That fighter design you cooked up after the Singapore attack."

"Isabel sent the design to you," Harry asked Danzo. The businessman nodded.

"I have more contracts with military officials than she does. She figured it would make the most sense."

"I keep telling her to make defensive equipment."

"You've known her for four years. You know how stubborn she is about the military."

"Right, her friend Elijah." Danzo nodded.

"Let me guess. Someone she loved who died in combat," asked Stephen. Harry nodded. "A story I've heard all too often, I'm afraid. Please offer Miss Daniels my condolences."

"Will do," said Harry. "Now, about the design?"

"We want to provide funds for a working prototype to be made for presentation before it can be mass produced for the United States Air Force. I was talking with Danzo about that when you walked in, Mr. MacGrath. I understand you also have a resignation to this kind of thing?"

"Normally, but with this design," He turned to Holly who changed into an image of the initial blueprints that popped into his mind. "I can't see anything other than military applications unless we jumpstart a new space program."

"Space program?"

"Shortly after this idea popped into my head, I noticed how the plating was welded together and how the cockpit would be sealed airtight, based on the fact that you enter from the side of the fighter rather than from the top like modern fighters today." He then turned to the inner portion of the designs. "Then there's the air filtration system which would be needed for high atmosphere or no atmosphere travel. Not to mention…" Once more Harry shifted the designs, this time to the wings. "These aren't normal engines. They're Ionic Propulsion Engines on par with, if not greater than, the NSTAR."

"Mr. MacGrath, are you saying you've designed a spacecraft on a whim?"

"Trust me," said Danzo. "It's not the strangest thing he's ever done, nor can do. Hell, any Technomancer can do the same things as him, making each one a prime candidate for Special Ops missions. Ah, that reminds me…" Harry turned to Danzo as the man went to a wall with a hidden panel. "The first sets were finished this month. I've been saving yours for your next visit." Harry watched as he opened a hidden panel revealing a suit of samurai inspired armor. Harry blinked as he activated Schematic and went over the specs.

"An ancient design for the modern age," said Stephen as he observed the armor. "You know, out of all the armor designs, your country's has always been the most practical when it comes to mobility and protection."

"You don't know the half of it, sir," said Harry. "This armor was specifically designed with Lift the Veil in mind."

"'Lift the Veil'. That's the revelation of magic to the entire world, correct?"

"How…?"

"I was asked to attend a meeting between the Presidents of both the Magical and the Mundane US publics. I was made aware of the plan."

"Good to know."

"If I made this right," said Danzo. "You should be able to command it with your Technomancy." Harry blinked and reached out with his magic. The armor reacted instantly and dismantled before hovering around him. Stephen watched with intrigue as the armor locked into place around him, piece by piece. Starting with the cuirass and working up to the hands and feet and ending with the helmet, mocking the way First Sons made their scrap armor. Harry moved his arms and legs to test mobility and rolled his neck. Feeling satisfied, Harry returned it to the stand.

"That is perfect. Easy to move, no encumbrances, no issues breathing."

"What is this made of," asked Stephen.

"The interior is made from Acromantula Silk."

"And an Acromantula is…?"

"Think a giant man eating tarantula," said Harry. "They live for decades and produce enough silk to cover a castle in less than two years."

"Their silk," said Danzo. "Is used as both fashion sense and practical armor. It is stronger and more kinetic dampening than normal spider silk or Kevlar. Between that and the plating, multiple servos to increase the wearers strength and speed, and there's room for whatever additions the wearer sees fit. Yours, Harry, has some additions preinstalled that I'm sure you'd like. Digital heads up display within the visor, hard light projectors, borrowed from DMT, of course, and a USB port designed specifically to fit Holly's AI chip. You'll find that in the left gauntlet."

"Perfect."

"If you don't mind my asking," said Stephen. "What's the plating made of?"

"Dragon scales from the Mt. Fuji dragon preserve. We'd asked for any intact shed scales from growing dragons as well as scales from any recently deceased dragons. Dragon scales are exceptionally hard, more than any composite metal. We've tested it out, it'd take .50 caliber rounds to even scratch them."

"That's some defense. How have you dealt with dragons in the past before… wherever they are now?"

"Carefully crafted poison called dragonsbane with well-aimed arrows either at the wings, where the flesh is weakest, or at a hidden chink in their scales located on the neck. Their scales are remarkably resistant to magic as well." Harry turned to the armor, noting the crest above the visor and recognizing it.

"You had to recreate the Hyabusa armor from Halo," asked the preteen.

"Figured a familiar look would make people more acceptable of it when it's released to the public law enforcement."

"Smart move." Harry went to work on the armor, fine tuning the hard light generators before plugging Holly into it and putting the armor back on, sans the helmet.

"There's a shrinking rune on the side, opposite of the radio receiver." Harry tapped the rune with his wand and smiled as it shrunk to the size of a marble before he clipped it to the armors ammo belt. "You're going to show that off to your friends, aren't you?"

"Am I that predictable, Danzo?"

"Since I've met you, I've learned never to answer that question, Harry." Harry grinned before turning back to Stephen and shaking his hand.

"Pleasure to meet you."

"Likewise, Mr. MacGrath," said Stephen. "And if I can speak with your mentor at some point on defensive equipment contracts, that'd be appreciated."

"I'll see what I can do about that." Harry Charged back down to the lobby, intent on catching up with his friends when he heard a whistle behind him.

"Oi," shouted M. "Second Rate, over here!" Harry turned around and spotted M standing in the doorway and waving him over. Harry groaned before going to the original reason he came to Japan. "Good to see you know your way around here."

"All this time watching me, and you didn't know I was friends with the Akagi family?" He grinned as he leaned against a wall. "I'm starting to think you only watch me when you miss me." M blushed before punching him in the chest, only to regret it.

"Ow!"

"Dragon scale plating. Sorry, should've warned you."

"Arse…" Harry took her hand and transferred some energy to help her heal. M blushed once more before pulling away. "Just follow me, Second Rate."

"As you wish." She led him to Shibuya Crossing. "So, what are we doing here?"

"What time is it, AI?"

"I have a name," said Holly from Harry's shoulder.

"Time."

"Just humor her, Holly," said Harry. "I'd rather not get into a discussion about specifics of AI interaction right now."

"Fine. It is currently a quarter to 4 here in Tokyo."

"Why do you ask?"

"Watch the cars. In two minutes a timed bomb from the Yakuza will go off," said M.

"We need to stop it, then."

"No one will be hurt. We're just here to observe."

"Observe what?"

"Don't know. My boss didn't tell me what to look for."

"Load of help, that guy." At the two minute mark, a bomb did go off, sending a car into the air, flying end over end to a group of people. Without warning, as most of them either ducked hoping the car would sail right over them, or ran to the side, a woman stood her ground. Her hands glowed blue and the car suspended in the air above the group. Harry and M watched in surprise and fascination. As the woman started sweating from the strain, Harry's instincts kicked in. He Flash Stepped to the car and managed to Flash the passengers out to M for healing. He then moved the civilians out of the way before standing next to the woman as the car dropped. Harry used electromagnetism to move the car away from them as M ran over.

"Nice one, Second Rate."

"Stop calling me that."

"Prove you're better than me, and I will."

"Given my field experience I think my performance speaks for itself."

"That still remains to be seen. But that can wait for another time. For now, we should focus on…" She looked passed him. "Where did she go?" Harry turned around and saw no one standing behind him. He scanned the crowds on the streets and spotted the woman moving down an alleyway.

"This way." He followed after her, M right behind him. He went down the alley and looked around, not seeing any place the woman would've ran to. He looked up at the rooftops and saw nothing. "Dammit, where did she go?"

"Was she magical?"

"Did that look like magic to you?"

"Don't give me that tone."

"Don't say something stupid then."

"I was asking a question."

"One you should already know the answer to." Their argument was interrupted as a group of punks approached them. Harry ignored their threats as he stared at their leader with contempt and spat an insult in Japanese. The leader growled and pulled out a pocketknife. Harry and M simply blasted it simultaneously, disarming him and stunning him all at once. Harry Flash Stepped behind him and tripped him to the ground before putting him in Arc Restraints.

"Just kill him."

"I don't kill."

"One of these days, you'll have to."

"No, I mean I don't generate enough energy to kill, just stun and disarm." He ducked under a swing of a crowbar and Holly flew into the man's face, right between the eyes, blinding him from both the light and the force of impact.

"Just use an amplifier."

"Does it look like I carry one on me?" Harry blasted a chain in one of their hands, stunning him as M delivered a kick to his head.

"What about those spider things your friend made?"

"So you have been spying on me." Harry elbowed one of the punks trying to attack him from behind in the gut before restraining him to the ground. "And they're only to give a quick recharge if we're dry. They don't work as amplifiers."

"Seems like you should work on that." M grunted as one of the punks grabbed her from behind and held a knife to her neck, threatening to cut her if Harry made a move.

"Do you want me to handle this?"

"I've got it." M lifted the manhole they were standing on up into the air, making the man drop the knife in surprise. She flipped it upside down, magnetizing her feet to the metal as he dropped to the ground for Harry to restrain. She put it back and Harry turned to her.

"Besides, when I use my trump card, it makes up the difference."

"What trump card, Karmic Energy?"

"Good to know some secrets are safe. And no, it's not that. Do you think that's all your boss wanted us to see."

"I'd assume so. After the bomb, nothing else seemed to happen other than people calling for emergency services. But, I was also given orders to give you something."

"An enticing gift to work with you people, I'm guessing."

"He just said to make sure you got it." She pulled on a glove and reached into a pocket before pulling out a ring.

"Easy there, girl. We haven't even gone on a first date."

"You're not cute, nor are you funny." She dropped it into his hand. "He said it came with a message. 'One more down.' I have no clue what that means." Harry held up the ring and felt a familiar presence and saw a familiar symbol.

"I think I do." He slipped the ring into what seemed to be an ammo pouch at his hip before turning to her. "Is that it?"

"There was one more thing, this one from me."

"If it's another punch, this time aimed at my face, I'll pass."

"Close your eyes, Potter."

"Is that an order." She gave him a look and he chuckled before doing as he was told. A second later, he opened them as he felt her lips on his. She pulled back, a light blush on her face. "That…"

"Never happened." She pressed two fingers to his temple and 'Deleted' the memory, stunning him slightly before turning to Holly. "Tell him nothing of this, 'Holly'." Harry shook his head before turning back to her.

"Is that it?"

"Yes, Second Rate. That's it. You can get back to your friends."

"Don't have to tell me twice." He kissed her cheek, making her blush. "It was good fighting with you." He ran off and Holly turned to him.

"What did she do?"

"What do you mean?"

"Hmm… Harry do you remember what happened just now correctly?"

"We fought the punks after losing that strange woman, she gave me the ring, I made my joke, we left. Why?"

"I think she's given me a glimpse into another memory magic. Though it will require a test when we get back to Hogwarts."

"Alright then." As they made their way back to Akagi Industries, a pair of hidden eyes watched M as she pulled out a disposable cellphone.

"Package delivered."

"And the event?"

"Witnessed. Sir, if you don't mind my asking, what was that?"

"An anomaly that's been popping up in the last two years. Normally from children who were born ten years ago. Multiple explosions in experimental labs all across the world released an unknown isotope to the air. It wasn't outright dangerous, so nothing was reported. But pregnant women in the cities in question who gave birth in the next year were flagged by magical authorities as their children being potentially magical as a result, but with an odd after effect."

"A blue glow."

"Yes. They've been studied by Mundane and Magical alike. Did you capture the person in question?"

"No sir, the woman escaped."

"Woman? This merits further research. Return to base, Agent M"

"Yessir." The woman, hidden from view of everyone, watched as M turned into pure energy and raced into the communications device she was holding. She watched as it fell to the ground and was smashed to pieces. She turned from the wrecked device to the restrained men as her disguise started failing.

"What is going on," she asked herself before adjusting her wig and walking away, trying to look casual.

Harry finally caught up to the group as they were looking through an observation window at Daphne and a woman of Chinese descent around his mother's age. "Sorry I'm late."

"Right on time, actually," said Sakura. "Doctor Zhou was just about to let Daphne test out her Sub-Zero technology." She leaned to Harry to whisper to him. "I approve of her as well." Harry rolled his eyes at her antics as the woman with Daphne tossed a grenade looking device into the air. A propulsion system kept it suspended as it opened and started emitting a gaseous compound that frosted up the edges of the window. Daphne grinned and absorbed the environment around her, her arms emitting the same gaseous cloud as she did. She turned to the window and smiled at the group as they clapped. Doctor Zhou blinked in surprise before cheering herself and high fiving Daphne before they turned to exit the chamber.

"Having fun?" Daphne smiled at him.

"Doctor Zhou is a genius. Her Cryo-Grenades are still in the prototype stages, but they're enough to give me a quick recharge in case I need it when helping you."

"Daphne…"

"Don't give me that. You know you can't keep fighting alone."

"And you know you're still not ready."

"I…"

"You should listen," said Isabel. "Back in Empire City when Harry was first starting out, Cole had to bail him out more than he cares to talk about. He wasn't ready. All the footage where you see he knows what he's doing, that was after fighting them for months. He was still learning everything he could about his magic. You're in that same boat. All of you are. Harry knows you're all willing to fight with him. But he wants to make sure your ready to go out into the field. That's why he teaches you all he has while also helping with the everyday use of your magic."

"Inexperience means someone gets hurt or someone gets killed," said Harry. "And I'm not about to let that happen to any of you." The Technomancers were silent for a moment before Draco stepped toward Harry.

"Appreciate the sentiment, Potter. But realize, warriors are forged in flames, not in a training field. If you're worried, take us in teams. Because we won't learn anything from a safe environment. We need mistakes in order to make sure we never make them again."

"For once," said Pansy. "I agree with Malfoy. And if you expect us to help you, like you're sure we are willing to do…"

"Some of us less than others," interjected Blaise, earning a jab to the ribs from Parvati and Padma.

"…You need to trust we'll be alright with what you've taught us and let us learn to fight on our own. So far, only Luna and Su have been to an actual battlefield, and Su was running support the whole time." Isabel smiled as Harry looked each of his friends in the eye. Holly flew over to her.

"Nice to see the Kid actually consider someone's advice that's not me or Cindy."

"Miss Daniels. Have you ever encountered someone with telekinetic abilities sparked by a blue glow?" She turned to the AI.

"Blue glow?"

"Myself, Harry, and the girl, M, witnessed someone prevent an exploding car from crushing people using telekinesis. Her arms and half of her body were covered in an odd blue glow."

"I've never heard of anything like that. Remind me to pull Harry's memory of what happened."

"That's another thing. M introduced me to another memory magic. Deletion."

"How?"

"Well, she kissed him and made him forget it ever happened."

"Huh. His first kiss. And he doesn't even remember it."

"I was thinking. Maybe this is why no one can find anything about the Voice, or the Commander."

"Their memories are being erased. It makes sense, now if only we could find a way to track or stop it."

"I think Blaise may have a solution. Out of all of them, he's been more focused on the memory aspects of their magic."

"I'll bring it up later. For now, let's let them enjoy the rest of their field trip. It's not often Harry, or any of them, get some time off."

"Alright, then."

(Author's Notes)

Just a little bit of exposition and hints at things to come. Get ready for another time skip, as much as I'd love going over tedious training with repetitive results and slow progress, but I really want to get to the important parts of this story as quickly as possible. If you guys know what the blue glow is, feel free to say so in a review. One more thing. I have a new Harry Potter story on my page. I know a few people have already started following it, I'm looking at you Araytigre, and I want to let anyone here know right now, it will not have a consistent update schedule. It will have longer periods between updates than my other stories so I don't burn myself out with too much. Feel free to check it out and let me know what you think in a review. That's all for now, until next time, Y'all!
