The meddler smiled before casting a cannon blast out of his wand. Soon as everyone heard the blast they stopped moving."Please perfect take your houses to their common rooms. Teachers we will. . ." Tonks stood up and yelled at the meddler before students were moved."But professor the Hufflepuffs and Slytherin common rooms are in the dungeons. So you want them to put us all in danger. I think us waiting in the great hall is a better situation for at least the two houses. Also what are you going to do about the three that are missing."
The meddler was a bit shocked someone spoke against his idea since they were always accepted. He flinched before responding."It seems I had a moment of lapse in my judgement. All students will remain in the hall while the teachers will look for the troll in the dungeons. We will also be looking for the students who are missing. Does anyone know who they are?"
Tonks almost snorted before she could respond though Flitwick beat her to it."It is Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Daphne Greengrass. There was a incident between Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger. In my class and it seemed to continue after the class so the three went somewhere to talk. Plus I had already gave them permission to miss the feast. Since this is a dark day to Harry. WE as a nation celebrates this day as the day Voldemort was killed. Yet no one thought how Harry would feel, this is the day when he became a orphan considering he lost his parents. Now excuse me, I am going to find my ravens and bring them here. Before helping you find the troll." With a have he sent a raven Patronus to Harry to let them know about the troll.
The headmaster was confused as to hw the half goblin knew they were missing before he did. He son woke Quirrell and every teacher then left the hall sealing it shut. Soon the perfects and head boy and girl soon organized kids. They soon were helping calm the scared kids. Not realizing that a first year would save them before the teachers ever could.
Harry and the two girls were now enjoying supper together. Hermione was so happy she got to spend time with her new friends. She found out from Harry and Daphne that today was the day Voldemort died and also the day Harry's parents were killed. Daphne was just enjoying her time with the two of them. She has always used a cold front to keep certain people away. Yet these two were able to go past that in minutes of meeting her. They were interrupted during their dinner as they heard the castle shake. They looked around and then a Patronus came through the wall. It gave them a warning of the troll on the prowl.
They agreed to wait and hide in the classroom. Not realizing that the smell of the food would attract a troll. Not only was there one but actually two were in the school. One was headed towards them as it smelt the food.
As the girls were getting a bit scared from the threat Harry promised them a simple promise."I swear on my life to both you. Nothing will harm you, either of you. I will protect you with my life. Nothing will tear me away from you. Not now or even the sand of time will keep me from you or protecting you or anyone precious to me." Harry soon was hugged by the two girls. So they didn't see the light blue magic that sounded them. The world once again accepted the vow. A few others felt the magic hit them but not realizing what it meant.
Though as they were separating a loud crack was heard. The three turned to the door and they saw it was splinted. Then the door moved as it was bashed again. This time it sent the door flying. The door headed right to them. Though Harry pulled out Dreadnought. He stabbed it towards the door flying ever closer. The door as it got close to them soon was disintegrated and turned into ash. Harry used the ash to blind the Troll before jumping into action with his sword drawn like a Samurai.
Harry pulled Excalibur from his cloak and used his enhanced senses to find the beast in the cloud of ash. He soon was striking everywhere he could. The sword was slicing through the tough skin as if it was paper. Soon the beast was on the ground on his knees and hands from the wounds suffered. Before Harry spun on his heel and brought the sword down and soon the head of the troll fell to the ground.
Harry shrunk the dead troll and used a Vanishing spell to clear the blood away. He then levitated the shrunken troll and the girls followed him to the great hall. As the three left the room. He stopped and turned to the door, he waved his staff and the door soon repaired itself and put it self on the hinges. After everything was fixed they headed to the hall again.
Though Harry cursed himself when he got to the hall. Standing there was the partner of the troll he had just killed. He finally got a good look and saw that these were fell trolls. Harry knew he had to act as the fell troll was almost through the door of the great hall. He ran quickly but not stop the troll as he broke through the door. He heard the students scream in the hall and realize why the troll was there.
Harry again pulled his sword out and soon repeated what he did with the first one. Though this was a bit harder since this troll had a ax to fight back with. the wild swings were dangerous to anyone. As it kept making the hole bigger and bigger so now there a big area for them to watch as Harry fought the beast. Most of the school were amazed and shocked that a 11 year old could his own. Harry finally got the beast to fall the ground.
Harry soon charged the beast forgetting about the ax. Even if the thing was half broken from the strikes against Excalibur. He was just stabbing the troll in the heart when the ax came and hit him in the side. Though he completed the stab the ax caused him to fly into the wall. This cause everyone who was watching, to scream since they figured he was dead. Then to their shock the beast rolled to the side and they saw the sword disappear and appear in Harry's hand.
The boy himself was now standing up. While he groaned from the wrecked robes. In which they could see a giant cut in them. Harry was perfectly fine. Though the students were shocked when harry unshrunk the other one and it feel to where the headless part was to the door. Harry then unshrunk the head. In which cause most the girls to pass out from shock and awe that he killed two fell trolls.
This is what the teacher came up to as they heard the noise just as they got to the dungeons. So they hightailed it back to great hall.. They got there as the unshrunk head hit the ground and the sword was tucked away and seemed to disappear. All but two of the teachers were gasping in shock like the students. One had the look of amusement. While the other was mix of anger and worry it seemed.
The meddler was the first to talk." What is the meaning of this, you three? How were you able to kill them? Also that sword looks very familiar. Also since it is considered a concealed weapon you will have to give it to me Mr. Potter. That is till the end of the year since it is against the school rules. You also will have lost 100 points for killing a protected species. We as teachers could of gotten the trolls to leave and never come back. Once again you lose 100 points for not listen to the rules. Now Ms. Granger and Ms. Greengrass you have also earned a months in detention with professor Snape for not following rules and attending the feast."
The students still up and not fainted or puking sick, were shocked that he would do that to the boy who not only saved their lives. But also to the girls who as explained before were with Harry since this was a bad day for him and the threat of Ron passed through the school like wildfire after the teachers left.
It seemed that Flitwick was about to tear the man a new one but Minavera beat him to it."HOW DARE YOU TRY THAT ALBUS DUMBLEDORE!.! I think you are abusing your power, so settle down and go have a lemon drop. The points are reversed and detentions cancelled. I also reward Mr. Potter 250 points. 100 for each of the trolls and another fifty for protecting students and the castle itself. Now listen well Albus bloody Dumbledore. You are not even supposed to be talking to him. His parents had filed a restraining order against you. Now Leave this to flitwick and me. His sword is a family heirloom and, as he is Lord Potter is allowed to carry such."
She then was mumbling to herself in Gaelic and everyone could tell it wasn't nice. " meddler, cén fáth nach dtéann tú i suí ar Dick falsa, ansin tarraing muc.". Then again Harry bursted out laughing before saying to the Harsh teacher."Well done professor, I totally agree with you." This seemed to make her blush since what she said was not meant to be understood and he had just congratulated her on the quotes.
The meddler meanwhile glared at the two before storming off. Since being around so long he knew what she said. Harry casted a spell with a wave of his hand and now a small rain cloud followed over the man as he walked away. It didn't make him wet or seen by him, it just provide come comedy to the people still watching the event.
Snape came up and had a smirk on his face and soon was now cleaning up the foul smell and bodies of the the trolls. After the creatures were shrunk and put in containers to be burned later. He turned to the three Ravenclaws."Where was the other one killed? Since there should be a mess from that as well still to be cleaned." Hermione was the one who answered."Professor he attacked us in the old Potions lab on the west side near the bathroom. Harry as you can see beheaded that one. He first turned the door to ash as the troll broke in and then re transfigured the door whole and we came here after he shrunk it after beheading it. He also banished all the blood as well so it is all clean."
The teachers and kids mostly sixth and seventh years heard this and were shocked. Harry was able to use spells taught only when trying to get a mastery of charms and transfiguration. Snape then shocked everyone further with what was said next."That will be 30 points to Ravenclaw for a mastery of charm and transfiguration." Now some of the sixth and seventh years fainted they never seen snape before this year give points and the shock of it was still surprising.
Harry smiled and flicked his hand and the door to the hall was soon fixing it self again showing his mastery of the spells. Now everyone witnessing the fact was shocked. Everyone had the same thought who witnessed this."Wandless and silent as well. Is there anything this boy can't do? Actually I don't even want to know. It will be better to watch and learn." While snape had one other thought."He is really is both his parents kid. He has a mastery of charms, potions and transfiguration."
Everyone now seemed to look at the boy in a different light. He shrugged before heading back to the Ravenclaw tower. His friends all seemed to follow him since it was a long day already. They soon were in the common room and Harry frowned a bit as he looked around. He activated a new power and his mage sight kicked in causing his eyes to glow. He looked around the room and flicked his wrist. The four Ravenclaws since Tracy joined them watched as over 100 charms were broken. They knew the charms since being taught by Harry in spare time.
The three girls were a bit pissed about the fact they were being listened to and motioned for the dorms and the bedrooms. Harry understood and quickly went through everywhere and sure enough. The meddler had over 3000 charms and listening spells all over the tower most in the girls bathroom since they gossip so much.
Harry was now pissed and hoped that he could figure out how to confront the man. He now knew that he would have to check all over the castle. He was tempted to claim the castle as well. As he was the lord of all the houses he could actually control who works there or not. He might save that though for when the meddler truly fails the school.
After all the charms were destroyed and such he sat on a couch and soon his friends joined him sitting everywhere. Harry frowned as he remembered something very quickly most would notice. It was the fact that both Quirrell and Snape had wounds on the legs. He was curious as to where they came from. Snapes looked like a claw while Quirell's looked like a bite mark.
He made his observations known and everyone now had their thinking caps on. Though after a few hours all they could think of was that there was something on the third floor and one was trying to get it. After that they were soon tired from the exciting day and headed to bed. They were excited about the weekend though.
The next morning was Saturday and harry realized that it was the first game of the season. It was Ravenclaw vs Gryffindor, this would almost be harder than if was against Slytherin. Not for the reason of cheating but because of the Twin Dragon beaters. Fred and George Weasley. They have a record of at least 8 people in the hospital a season. Harry knew he would have to have his head on a swivel. He knew though that Quirrell would also being doing something since he seems to be possessed by something or someone.
The girls would be watching and waiting to act on anything since they shared his worries about the man. Daphne would be the one be the one keeping on the man since he knew it would be hard to judge her as a pureblood. It was barbaric but understandable. They didn't realize that her parents would be there to watch him play. They also were sitting in the teachers booth.
Harry was relaxing as he remembered the fact he had charmed the fuck out of the broom. He knew it might be a bit overkill but he knew it might be needed. He even charmed the entire broom for more speed and better turns. There was charm if anything came up behind him he would feel hot and know to dodge. He then also charmed it so if something hit the broom it wouldn't break it no matter what hit it. So remembering this helped him relax as he ate the light breakfast before the game.
Time soon slipped from he and before he knew it he was about to mount his broom and start his first game. He soon mounted his broom and waited for the rest of the team to start since he was youngest and a bit of a secret from the school. After he heard his name he soon was zipping past the line of his team mates since Seekers were above the rest. He looked to the other seeker and almost laugh when he saw the seeker saw the broom he was on.
Sure enough Madam Hooch was on the ground a broom in her hand as well the box was there jumping a bit as the bludgers were wanting out. She yelled out for them to hear."I want a nice clean game. From all of you do you understand."She really didn't have to say it to them these teams played clean if not both rough but clean. She kicked the box and the Snitch was soon released first. Which flew by Cormac McLaggen Harry finally remembered his name. It then flew by Harry and then disappeared in the sky like it was supposed to but Harry followed its movement as if it was at a snail's pace. The Bludgers were soon soon released and they flew off at random.
She picked up the Quaffle and soon threw it up. Harry soon was a blur. He wanted to be away from the fight for the ball. He soon was zooming over the pitch at a good speed. He then saw a pass of the quaffle going to a gryffindor and intercepted it with a smack of his broom tail. The hit acted as a pass and soon Alice picked it up and was able to score. The game went for about fifteen minutes and the score was considered a smack own. Ravenclaw 100 and Gryffindor 30. Harry who was able to see the snitch near the goal posts was about to head towards it. When his broom did a bit of a jerk to the left.
When the girls saw the broom was acting up they focused on the teachers area and saw that true enough Quirrell was cursing the broom. In which Tracy waved her wand with a blue light. This of course was seen by Daphne who was sitting with her parents just a few rows away. Which Daphne used to excuse herself. When she was out of sight from any of the people in the box she found where Quirrell was sitting. She pulled out some oil from some lamps they had found.
As she poured it on his cloak she muttered a quick spell.'Lacarnum Inflamari' A shot of fire appeared out of her wand. She miscalculated the oil soon the entire cloak was on fire. She ran to the washrooms and casted a few spells to clear her wand. Not knowing she caused four people to get third degree burns both Quirrell and meddler included. Not before her parents who she warned about the fire put it out with a spell of water.
Sure enough soon as he was not focused on Harry the curse ended. Harry who was a bit light headed from being tossed around for almost three minutes soon shook his head and tracked the snitch down. He cursed himself and shot off in a hurry. McLaggen who targeted Harry was on his heels. Harry figured that out and shot away towards the wall at a fast speed.
Being the cocky guy McLaggen was following on his heels. As he was about only four feet from the wall he shot up and then spun away. Not really wanting to see the damage he just caused the older boy. He also ducked as a Bludger was sent his way with a spin on his broom. He heard the game was now Ravenclaw 180 to Gryffindor 60. Then felt something fly into his mouth. The flutter of wings was the only thing that gave away what was in his mouth.
Just before the feint, the twins figured what he was doing. They tried to help their teammate but didn't know about the ability of Harry. They both watched as Harry ducked in a pro player way shocking them and the entire stadium. He spun on his broom completely around a move which 90 percent of the time the ride falls off.
The Bludger flew harmlessly by Harry. It soon smacked into the boy who just hit the wall. Everyone in the stadium oohed as the Bludger it McLaggen in the side of the chest and caused a few cracks to be heard. The boy soon feel to the ground knocked out from both the wall and the Bludger. The Gryffindor team tried to call a time out for their player. Which would of worked in most cases. If Harry had not the snitch in his hand from the spin on his broom. No one noticed he almost swallowed it. Especially since the thing flew in his mouth when he spun.
The whistle blew and the entire stadium was silent waiting the verdict. Before Madam Hooch was yelling out for everyone to hear."Due to catch before timeout was called upon, Ravenclaw wins! This caused most of the stadium to cheer. Except for a few people since they were hoping Gryffindor won or Harry got hurt. The Ravenclaw team soon flew down to Harry was standing on the pitch and congratulated him on catching the snitch and winning the game. The final score was 330 to 60.
There was soon a flux of students on the pitch as most of the school was there celebrating their win and his wicked catch. Jordan who was the announcer for the game asked Harry."How in the world did you catch it since no one noticed you had it?" Harry who was a bit embarrassed about the catch mumbled out but thanks to a 'Sonorus' charm everyone heard it."I actually almost swallowed it when I spun on my broom. So I guess the Twin Dragons helped me in a way so thanks boys."
With that he blushed as a few people laughed both at him and the twins. He soon made his way to Hermione and Daphne who waited for him they soon tackled him to the ground before almost yelling at him for making them worry so much. This caused him to blush more as the entire school watched this with smiles and fair bit of giggling from them all. That was till the two girls turned their eyes on the school. Then the laughter stopped instantly. then Harry got up and wrapped his arms around the two of them and lead them to the Castle. He made it a point though to give them kisses in front of the entire school. Showing exactly who these girls were with and that they were off limits.
As if to prove he was something other than a normal student he and the girls soon disappeared in a blue flame explosion. It almost acted like a Phoenix burst. Yet this one was cold and felt like ice. It was also blue and white fire that left snow behind. from where they were standing before the explosion. This did leave the students and all the teachers in shock and awe. Since it was common knowledge most travel unless allowed by the headmaster. No magical travel could happen. Yet Harry just broke that knowledge and it caused sock and awe. Then again was that boy anything near normal.
