Chapter 5
Hermione woke up first, not remembering where she was, then looked up and saw she was lying against Viktor, who had a decent hold on her waist. She smiled as the memories of last night came back to her. both she and Harry found their soul mates. Speaking of Harry, Hermione looked over at the floor to see Her friend in Charlie's arms. Still, she was surprised to see Godric lying between them. "he woke up in the middle of the night and came looking for his mama. He sat down and snuggled between saying mama and daddy; he was happy now." Someone said. Hermione looks over to see Dobby with a tray of food. She slowly got up after gently unwrapping herself from Viktor's grip, which caused him to wake. Hermione placed a finger to his lips and pointed to the Potters. He nodded and started eating. "you know that could be us someday." He said quietly. "do you want kids?" Hermione asked. "someday. Maybe two or three." He said. "all boys?" she teased. "There can be a princess somewhere," he said, causing Hermione to giggle.
She looked over to see the morning paper and widened her eyes. "oh crap." She said. Harry heard her say oh crap and slowly woke up. "what's up, Hermione." She said, wiping the sleep from her eyes while keeping a firm grip on Godric, who also woke up. "Breakfast and the morning paper." Hermione said. "how bad?" she said; she grabbed a piece of toast and gave it to Godric. "most covers the dance, you slapping Ron which they cover word for word what was said, and your soulbond to Charlie." She said as she glanced over the article. "great, almost makes me what to come clean about everything, including Godric." She said as Charlie woke up. "I would hold off until after the second task. I have heard rumors that the second task always includes hostages. They could use Godric." Viktor said. "over my dead body. anyone touches my son, and they are dead." Harry said, wrapping her arms around her bearly awake son. "if that is true, then they mostly like take Charlie and me if the article is anything to go by." Hermione said as Viktor squeezed her hand. "let's find out for sure, then make battle plans." Charlie said, getting a bowl of biscuit and gravy. "we need to open the egg." Harry said, holding a sippy cup of orange juice to Godric. Harry would feed him as if he was still a baby when he wasn't fully awake. "you twist the top. But when you do, it screams. I haven't found a way to hear to the clue." Viktor said. Harry nodded.
"I need to get ready for my magical creature class. We can talk more after class." Hermione said, getting up only to find her clothes on the side of the couch and her books. She giggled and went into Harry's bathroom. "I need to get there as well," Charlie said. "Why do you need to go to Magical creature class? You already graduate, and when are you returning to the reserve?" Harry asked. "oh, that's right, I didn't tell you. Hagrid has admitted he was over his head and has asked for help. Since I am working on my master's in magical zoology, Minerva asked if I would be interested in assisting in teaching in magical creatures class. I am here to stay, babe." He said, kissing her. "Daddy stays, daddy, stay," Godric said, clapping his hands. Everyone broke into a giggle. "He knows who his daddy is." Harry said, beaming at Charlie, who just returned the smile. "ill go too. I want to see Hagrid." She said. "I am going to talk to Professor McGonagall about transferring. Now that I found Hermione, I will not leave her alone here." Viktor said as Hermione came out of the bathroom in her uniform. Harry decides to take one and told her Hermione to wait for her.
After running to McGonagall, all four went down to Hagrid's hut. They meet the rest of the class. Everyone was talking about the ball. Most of the talk was about how much fun everyone had. A few were talking about Harry slapping Ron. 'It's about time someone hit him; I am just sorry it wasn't me,' one student said. 'why did Harry put up with him for so long said another. most of the commits were similar.
"Okay, quieted down, everyone. I got some news. It had come to my attention that I might have gone overboard with this class." Hagrid said. Some started snickering while others just rolled their eyes. Harry looked at Hermione with a 'you think' look. Hermione just smiled at her. "So I have gotten an assistant. Some of you might recognize him because he is a recent graduate, Professor Weasley." He said. Charlie walks up to the front of the class. "Accurately, Hagrid, as of last night, it is now Professor Potter. If case some of you didn't read this morning's paper or heard your classmates talking about it. Harry Potter and I have found we are soul bonded, which means we are married. As most of you know, I have five brothers and one sister. Only of us needs to carry the family name, so I have chosen to take Harry's last name. now with that out of the way, what do you we have for these kids today." Charlie said, smiling at Harry, making her blush.
The creature they studied was not that interesting, but it was still a good class. At the end of the course, Malfoy walked over to Harry. Everyone knew of the rivalry between these two, so they all expected a blow-up. "Potter," Draco said. "Malfoy," Harry said. "This isn't a trick." He asked, pointing to her body. "no, it's not. Was last night not enough proof for you?" Harry said coldly with her arms crossed. Draco shook his head. "I have been talking to our mutual friend and learned you were not educated in the wizardry customs. I wish to apologize for my oversight. I didn't mean to offend anyone you deem a friend and wish to start over." He said, holding a handout. Did everyone hear that right Draco Malfoy just apologized to Harry potter? Charlie came up and stood behind Harry. "I still don't trust you, but I would love to start over if you are sincere. Hello, I am Harry Jamie Potter, the only child of James and Lily potter." Harry said, taking Draco's Hand. "Hello, I am Draco Lucius Malfoy, the only child of Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy. If you like, I can help you understand wizard customs. " Draco said. "Thank you, I'll think about that." Harry said as she started walking away with Charlie. "what was that about?" Hermione asked. "no idea," Harry said.
Over the next few weeks, all four got close as they worked on the egg. They often end up sleeping in Harry's room. McGonagall never worried because she knew she couldn't keep them away due to the soul bond. One day Cedric Diggory stopped them on the way to lunch. "Potter." He said to her attention. "Listen, I never thank you for the tip about the dragons, so I thought I return the favor. Use water on the egg." Cedric said before walking away. "How will that help?" Hermione asked. Harry thought about it for a bit until an idea came to her. "The screaming. What if it's a language that can only be heard underwater." She said. Suddenly she grabbed Hermione's hand and ran to find Viktor and Charlie.
A bit later, all four were in the perfect bathroom. They wore Swimsuits; Hermione and Harry had on modest bikinis while Viktor and Charlie had shorts. Viktor cast the bubble head charm on them before they took the egg under the water.
Come seek us where our voices sound,
we cannot sing above the ground,
An hour long you'll have to look,
To recover what we took.
"so you are right about them using Hostages, Viktor." Harry said. "they will most likely use the dates from the Yule ball." Viktor said. Harry was hoping so, but she had this strange feeling that her son was in danger. "what are our options for breathing under the water? Bubblehead charm. But it could break." She said. "transfiguration, you could change your body to a fish or something that can breathe under the water. But if it is not a full transfiguration, you could end up not being very fast, and with a timer, you need to be quick." Hermione said.
"I think I read something about a plant that allows you to breathe underwater, but I can't remember the name. I could ask Neville since he is the best in herbology. I think it could last an hour. However, I think it will depend on salt water vs. fresh water." Harry said, looking at her legs in the water. 'mermaids, I wonder, she thought to herself. Harry closed her eyes and focused on her legs to become one and for the gills on her neck. After a bit, Hermione let out a yell. "Harry, your legs have become a fin." She said. Harry opened her eyes to see a long beautiful fish tail. "how did you do that?" Charlie asks, staring at her wife in amazement. Suddenly Harry couldn't breathe, so she jumped into the sizeable pool-like bathtub.
Harry realized she had gills. She poked her head up to see her friends and husband. "I pull a little mermaid move. I thought about wanting a tail and gill, and they appear. Close your eyes and let your magic know your intent." She said. Charlie, Hermione, and Viktor did as she suggested; within a second, they all had fish tails and gills. They jumped into the tub and went underwater. "I have no idea how long I can hold it, but it's an idea. We can use the bubble head charm and the plants as a backup." Harry said under the water. Surprisingly they all could hear and understand her. they had their plan.
Up to the day of the second task, they practice their transformation in the lake. So far, they could last up to an hour and a half, and they were able to go fast. Harry told Viktor to practice casting windlessly because there was no way to attach a hoster to their tails without it getting torn up during the transformation.
The night before the task Minerva came for Hermione but not Charlie, which made Harry nervous. Charlie tries to calm her down by saying they might get him in the morning. It helped a bit, but by the morning breakfast, no one had come to collect Charlie, and Harry's horrible feeling was getting stronger. "Charlie, I want to check on Godric. I am sorry, but I have a terrible feeling and need to see him." Harry said. Charlie nodded as he and Viktor followed her to the room.
As they approached, Harry's fears were realized. The room door had been blasted open, and Dobby was on the ground, beat to hell. Harry raced to him. "Dobby can you hear me?" she asked. Dobby coughed and nodded. "where is Godric?" Harry asked, praying he was somewhere in the room. "gone, the old one took him. I try to stop him, mistress, I tried." He said before passing out. "Winky, I need you." Harry cried. Another house elf came to her with a pop. "what can….Dobby, what happened?" Winky asked, dropping before Dobby. "he was hurt trying to protect my son. Can you help him?" she asked. Winky nodded before taking Dobby away.
"How did that old man find out?" Charlie asked.
They heard a slight cough and looked up to the portrait over the fireplace. It was a young girl with blue eyes and blonde hair playing in a garden. "I am afraid it's my fault. I was talking to another portrait in a normally deserted corridor. It is one nobody uses. I mentioned how cute you three look the morning after the ball and the headmaster came around the corner. I didn't want to tell him, but he used the power of the headmaster to force me. I am so sorry. I didn't think he was there. I am so sorry." She said, crying. Harry nodded. "it will be fine. I know you didn't mean to. So Dumbledore has my son. I will get him back, even if I had to kill the old man." Harry said with a fire in her eyes.
Suddenly Minerva came into the room. "harry, it's time… what happened here is the Godric?" she asked, seeing the wreak room. "Dumbledore. He found out about Godric and has taken him." Harry said. "that is what he meant." Minerva said, putting a hand on her mouth. "what?" Charlie asked. "I asked him this morning if he was going to get you as Harry's hostage, and he said it was already taken care of but wouldn't say more." She said. "you mean my four-year-old son who can't swim yet is in the freezing lake in the middle of winter!" Harry screamed. The wind suddenly picked up in the room, and there were no open windows. Charlie knew Harry was causing this, so he quickly wrapped his arms around her. "babe, there is what you are going to do. We are going to the second task. You will go into the water, find our son and bring him home. We will deal with Dumbledore after. I'll call Madam bones." He said, making her calm down and focus. Harry nodded and walked out of the room with everyone following her.
They went down to where the second task was being held. Harry glared at Dumbledore, who looked smug. "Get Bones here fast. If Godric is hurt, I will not hold back." She said as she went to the champion starting line. "Welcome to the second task. In the last 24 hours, someone precious to our champions was taken. They are now at the bottom of the black lake. They have one hour to retrieve them. After that, they are lost forever. Good luck, champions." Dumbledore announced. 'you ass is mine when I get back,' Harry thought as she started her transformation. Once the cannon went off, she was ready and jumped into the lake.
Viktor and Harry decide to stay and work together. Primarily for Viktor to keep Harry calm and focused, they swam close to the underground temples where four people were tied to the pillars. Cho chang for Cedric, a little girl who looks like fleur, Hermione, and Godric. They all looked like they were sleeping, and it scared Harry to see her baby like that. Cedric got to Cho first. He was confused to see two kids but only worried about getting Cho to safety. Viktor rushed to Hermione and untied her while Harry went to Godric.
Suddenly the mermaids came out and surrounded them. One got close to Godric and placed a knife to his neck. "we were told not to let this boy out of our sight. Get away." He said. "that is my son. Give him to me!" Harry said. Carelessly the merman cut Godric a bit but enough to draw blood. Harry lost it. Waving her hand, she sent a sound wave through the water at the Mermaids. Harry was pushing them away from her son. She quickly swam over to him and untired him. she brought him close to her and was about to leave, but she didn't see Fleur, and the hour was almost up. Harry knew she couldn't leave the girl down there. She sent a cutting spell at her chain and grabbed her arm. She quickly swam to the surface.
Once at the surface, both Godric and the little girl woke up. Harry helped them to the shore, where Fleur was waiting. "Gabriella," she cried, pulling her little sister out of the water. Harry canceled the transformation and climbed out, holding Godric close, trying to warm him up. Charlie brought warm towels and blankets for them. He rubbed her shoulder and looked between her and their son, trying to see if they were alright. Madam Pomfrey came over with her med kit. Harry refuses to let go of her son. "Harry, I need to look him over." She said. "you can look him over in my wife's arms," Charlie said, keeping his hand on Harry's shoulders. Pomfrey nodded and started running diagnostic spells over the boy. "except for being cold, he is fine. Give him some hot chocolate, and he should be fine. If something happens, please bring him to me." She said. Harry and Charlie nodded as they hugged their son, so happy for him to be alright and safe.
Dumbledore came over to them. "I don't know where the child came from, but I'll see that he gets a good home. Give him to me." He said, expecting Harry to listen. "No," she said. "what, Harry, you are too young to raise a child. I take care of him." Dumbledore said, trying to push the issue. "I say no, old man, and if you ever come near my son again. ill kill you." Harry said. "and ill help." Charlie said, wrapping his arms around both his wife and son. "and we'll give an alibi" Hermione said walking over with Viktor.
Just then, Madam bones come up to them. "Mr. and Mrs. Potter, I was told you wanted to see me." She said since she already knew what this was about. "Yes, Madam Bones, we wish to find a complaint against Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore for kidnapping and harming our son." Harry said. "now, all I did was allow the judges to use your son as a hostage for this task." Dumbledore said to try to sweep it under the rug. "without asking his parents, Dumbledore? It will be the second charge against you. The Delacour family has also wanted to file a complaint against you for the same thing. No one asks them if their youngest daughter could be used." Madam bones said glareing at Dumbledore. Viktor turn to Madam Bones."I also wish to file a complaint; Madam Bones and mine will carry more weight along with the Delacour's. My wife didn't ask for her permission either. Since we are soul bonded, Hermione now has dual citizenship making this an international issue." Viktor said. He and Hermione had quickly discussed it and chose to disclose their relationship. He had already called his father, who agreed to give Hermione citizenship immediately. Harry smiled at her friend, knowing she was happy.
"Well, dumbledore, what do you say to that." Madam Bones said. She was itching to stun the headmaster. "I was in my right as the headmaster to use whoever I wanted as a hostage, no matter who they were. The ministry of magic had no power here. Now give me that child," he said, lunging at Harry to take the child from her.
Suddenly a wall of fire surrounded the potters, shielding them from him. Harry felt a hand on her shoulder as Charlie felt one on his shoulder. She looked and saw her mother and father. James and Lily Potter, as well as the four founders of Hogwarts. Everyone couldn't believe what they saw. "Mum, Dad, how are you here?" Harry said. "We never left you. We just didn't have enough energy to manifest." Lily said as she smiled. "we are here now, and we won't let anyone hurt you or our grandson." James said, glaring at Dumbledore.
"We have been watching for years how you have destroyed our school Dumbledore. You have allowed important classes for pureblood and muggle-born alike to be discontinued." Rowena Ravenclaw said. "you have allowed the remain classes to slack off." Helga Hufflepuff said. "you have allowed for history to be changed. The students today are making the wrong impression of the past." Salazar Slytherin said. "Most important, you have brought harm to the students." Godric Gryffindor said. "because of these reasons, we, the founders of Hogwarts, have decided to remove you as headmaster of Hogwarts, effective immediately.!" They said in unison.
Everyone heard a big boom as all of Dumbledore's legal possessions appeared in front of them. "You have one hour to leave; if not, the castle will throw you out without your things." Godric Gryffindor said. "if you try to return, you will be killed." Salazar Slytherin said. "The reason for this is simple." Rowena Ravenclaw said. "We have labeled you a dark wizard and ban you from the castle and its grounds." Helga Hufflepuff said. They turn to Minerva. "we have named you, Minerva McGonagall, as interim headmistress until Harry potter completes her education. As our Direct descendant, we want her to have the school headmistress and her husband, Charlie Potter." Godric said. "Wait, what?" Harry said. James chuckled. "didn't know that did you?" he said. "no, it didn't show up on the heritage potion." Harry said. "it won't. You have to take an inheritance potion to learn your ancestors." Lily said, smiling at her daughter. "I would advise you to take one. Let's say you are heir to more than just the founders." James said with a wink.
After Dumbledore was forced out of the school and arrested, they all went to the great hall for dinner. "mum, dad, how long are you here for?" Harry asked. "not much longer, I afraid, but do you remember what Sirius told you last year? The ones who love us never really leave us. You can always find us in your heart." Lily said. Harry nodded, still holding Godric close. "you are not mad at me because of him. I won't give him up, even if you are." she said. "sweetie, we knew this child would come. As you already know, he was born out of your magic. Do we wish it happen naturally a little longer down the road? Yes, but it doesn't matter now. We love you, Godric and Charlie. We couldn't ask for a better son-in-law." James said, patting Charlie on the back. Suddenly, James and Lily tense up a bit. "it's time for us to go. Remember, we love you and will always be with you." Lily said sadly. Harry wanted them to stay longer. "Charlie, you take care of her and your son now, you hear. We will come back if you hurt it." James said. Charlie nodded. They hugged the new potter family, then faded into little bright lights that went into the sky along with the founders.
"I guess this means my secret is out," Harry said sadly, looking around to see the stares. "we can deal with it together, babe," Charlie said with a smile. She returned the smile but looked down at her now sleeping son, worn out from all the excitement. "what if they try to take him from me, claiming that I am an unfit mother due to my age?" Harry said sadly. "babe, they can't. After you told me about him, I did a thing." Charlie said with a nervous smile rubbing the back of his head. Harry looked at him with confusion. "I owl the ministry. I didn't tell them he was your son, just that I met a boy with no father. I went, applied, and was granted normal adoption. I am waiting on the second half, which is a bit harder. I apply for a blood adoption that way, he would truly be my son." He said, hoping Harry won't be too mad at him. Harry just stared at him with a closed mouth. She turned to Hermione. "Could you take him for a minute?" she asked. Hermione nodded, taking Godric, knowing what she wanted to do. Harry turns back to Charlie, her face turning into a smile, and she attacks him with a passionate kiss. Charlie wrapped his arms around her waist as he kissed her back. Just like last time, they had a substantial soft wave of energy. If anyone doubted their bond, they didn't now.
Soon the need for air became too great. They parted only to hear Hermione and Viktor chuckling. "Harry, there is a child present." Hermione teased. Harry smiles as she leans her head on Charlie's shoulder after taking Godric back. They sat down and started eating. Harry gently arose Godric to get him to eat something. "You know, If I get the blood adoption to approve, I hope he keeps his eyes. They are just like his mothers." Charlie said. "Blood adoption?" Godric asked. Harry looked at Charlie with a knowing smile. Godric was sitting at the table before Harry, eating a ham and cheese sandwich. "Baby, you know how Charlie is not your blood daddy, right." Harry said, "but still, daddy," Godric whined. Charlie and Harry had a warm feeling in their heart having heard that. "yes, he is still daddy, but he wants to be your daddy in blood as well. So, he has to get permission from the government to do what is called a blood adoption. It is where we can put a bit of his blood into you. You might change a bit to look a bit like him and me. Is that alright?" she said, not thinking Godric understood one bit. "you mama, him daddy," Godric said with conviction. "You got that right?" Hermione said as she giggled. Harry and Charlie smile as Godric returns to eating his sandwich.
Harry looked from Godric to Hermione and back. She looked at Charlie as if she was having a silent conversation with him. Charlie just knew what she was thinking. "good idea." He said. Harry leaned her head forward to see Neville. Charlie looked at him as well. "another good idea." He said. "hey Neville could you come here for a moment?" Harry said. Neville came over after hearing his name and sat down on one side of Hermione. "Charlie and I was wondering if you and Hermione would consider being Godric's godparents." Harry said. Both Neville and Hermione were in shock. "I don't know about Neville, but I would be honored. I already love this little boy, and I promise to raise him as my own if something happens. Right, Viktor?" Hermione said, looking at Viktor, who nodded, kissing her temple. "Neville?" Charlie asked. "are you sure you want me?" Neville asked. "you are already my godbrother; why not be Godric's godfather?" Harry said with a smile. Neville stared at the little boy in question before smiling. "I would love to." He said—everyone smiled.
A bit down the table, Ron overheard what was being said. "Why did he ask Neville? He should have asked me." He snarled. "Why would she ask you, Ron? You called her a liar and a cheat. You criticized her during the ball, which resulted in you getting slapped. I think Neville is a fine choice. He has shown nothing but loyalty." Ginny said. "You would say that since he is your boyfriend," Ron said cruelly. "Ron, face it. You and Harry are done being friends. You lost any chance at forgiveness." Fred said.
"Even if she did forgive you, I doubt she would forget what you did," George said. Ron looks up to see the family owl, Errol heading for Harry holding a red envelope. He smirks. "mom will fix everything." He said. "Ron, you didn't." Ginny said in shock, seeing Errol. "he did." Fred said. "let's go" all three of them jumped and raced over to Harry as she was about to open it. "HARRY JAME…" was all it could say before Ginny shot a reducto at it, turning it to dusk. Harry looked at her then to the now dust letter. "Ron told mom lies about what happened at the ball. We didn't want you to hear that." Ginny said. Harry looked down the table at Ron, who glared back. "I can't say I am surprised." She said coldly, trying not to cry. Charlie took her hand and kissed it, knowing how much Ron had hurt Harry at the ball. He was more pissed at his mother. "I'll send your mother a letter. Telling her my side, and if she doesn't want to hear or even listen, she doesn't get to meet her grandson." Harry said, fighting tears. This was a woman Harry almost called mom, and she wouldn't have asked her upfront her side of the story.
Godric saw his mommy was sad and knew Ron caused it. He looked down at him and blinked his eyes. Everyone saw a bucket of goo hovering over Ron's head. Ron was clueless until he looked up as the bucket tipped over, covering him in goo. He screamed, looking around, trying to see who did it. Everyone looked shocked. Harry looked at Godric, who looked smug. Charlie looks at his son too. "Did he just do that?" he asked. Harry just nodded slowly, in shock that her son could do that. "Has he ever displayed magic control before?" Hermione asked. "Actually, in the last 2-3 months he has been here, I have never seen any magic from him. I just thought he was a late bloomer. I wasn't going to push him." Harry said. "Mean redhead made mommy cry. Me no like him," Godric said. Everyone in their small group looked at Godric, who was munching on an apple. "I think you should get him tested. I have never heard of a child having control of his magic at four years old." Ginny said. Harry looked at her son, who seemed so innocent. "ill think about it." she said.
Suddenly a large crow came in and dropped a letter to Charlie. "it's from the ministry. They have approved the blood adoption." He said happily. "we will wait until after to get him tested." Harry said as she got up only to get dizzy. "or not," she said as she fell back down only to be caught by Charlie. "Harry! Are you alright?" he said as their friends looked at her concern. "I just got dizzy for a second." She said. At that moment, madam Pomphey came over. She waves her wand over Harry. "it's nothing to be concerned about. Just a bit of magical exhaustion. Let her rest today, and she should be alright." She said. "thank you." Charlie said as Harry leaned against him. Godric crawled over to his mother, climbing into her lap, hugging her. "mama, sleepy, we nap now." He said. "Yes, baby, we take a nap. But before," Harry said, slowly getting up with Charlie's help.
She looked around and saw Luna Lovegood. She walked over to her. "Ms. Lovegood?" Harry said. "hello, Harry potter. What can I do for you?" Luna said in her loopy way. "your father owns a new paper, the Quibbler, right?" she asked. "yes, but it's mostly used as a joke." Luna said sadly. "I understand, I have read a few articles, and although they are interesting, without seeing the creatures for myself, I can't say if they are real or not. I am willing to open my mind about it. However, I want to ask if your father would be willing to interview with myself and Charlie. So we can get the facts straight. I don't trust the daily prophet." Harry said with a smile.
"I appreciate your willingness to be open. I'll send a letter to daddy and see. Give me a bit." Luna said, pulling out parchment and a pen. "Thank you. Ask for winky, the house elf, when you are ready. She will show you where to find me." Harry said as she walked away. "you sure you want to get everything on the table?" Charlie asked. "yes. I am starting to feel better about more people knowing. I just want the truth and not some half-truth that the prophet will write. I trust luna to do that." Harry said, swaying a bit. "let's get you to your room." He said as he walked her up the stairs.
A few hours later, after resting. Harry felt better. Charlie, Viktor, Hermione, and her were sitting in the living room of her castle dorm that seemed to be quickly repaired. By the house elves or by the castle, Harry didn't know. Harry leaned against Charlie on the couch while Hermione was in Viktor's lap. Still feeling guilty about what happened, the little girl in the portrait had announced someone was at the door. Harry opened the door to find Luna waiting with a magical recorder. "Daddy said I could conduct the interview. Is now a good time?" she said. "of course, luna. Can I get you something to drink?" Harry asked. "just tea, please. Shell we began?" Luna said as she sat down to get ready.
Over the next two hours, Harry told her everything from her life with the Dursleys to what happened just a little bit ago in the great hall. They also told her about Hermione and Viktor. Luna, a proper reporter, asked a few clarification questions regarding Godric and the soulbond with Charlie to understand better. Once they were done, Luna told them she would send a copy to her before it got released to ensure it was accurate. It should complete either the evening or morning edition. Harry nodded and walked her out. After Luna left, Harry sat back down in Charlie's arm, not wanting to do anything else.
