Harry Potter and the Mysterious New Magic Pt: II
A/N: Well, here's part II to Harry Potter and the Mysterious
New Magic. Thank you to all the people that reviewed and e-mailed me. The R/H romance
still slowly develops while the H/C actually appears here.
Chapter 6: Cho Chang
When the feast ended, Ron and Hermione lead all of the
Gryffindor first years up to the tower, so Harry went to bed by himself.
That night, Harry couldn't sleep. He was too excited to be
back at Hogwarts, plus Sirius said in his last letter that they were having his trial held
soon. But soon his mind wandered off and he began to worry. His mind kept on asking
questions he didn't know the answer to.
'Have they caught Sirius?'
'Has he been given the Dementor's Kiss?'
'Will Sirius be set free?'
'Will Voldemort become invincible?
'Will Voldemort destroy more people?'
'Will he destroy me?'
Harry decided to go for a stroll around the castle to calm
his nerves. As he grabbed his cloak and was walking toward the common room, he heard Ron
giggle in his sleep.(A/N: Can ya guess what he's thinkin about???)
*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry had been walking for about 20 minutes before he arrived
at the lake. He noticed that he wasn't the only person there.
"Cho?" Cho gasped and turned around to find Harry.
Her face showed signs that she had been crying for the past half hour. She started to
quietly sob once more. Harry just took her in his arms and hugged her tightly. He wasn't
sure about what she was crying about, but he was pretty sure it had something to do with
Cedric.
Soon, her cries died down and Harry looked at her. She had
fallen asleep in his arms. Deciding not to wake her, he leaned back and drifted into a
deep sleep.
*~*~*~*~*~*~
A few weeks later, Harry and Cho had gotten closer to each
other, occasionally blushing when they accidentally touched or when their faces got inches
apart from each other. Harry knew he still had feelings for her, but wasn't sure if she
had the same for him. So he decided to wait and see what develops, but one does have their
limits.
Harry and Cho were in the library. Cho was studying for a
Transfigurations test and helping Harry with his Charms essay at the same time.(A/N: Wow,
ain't she wonderful??? J/K)
"Cho, how's that?" Harry asked as he gave Cho his
parchment.
"Fine." she handed it back to Harry. As he took it
from Cho, he lightly touched the top of her hand. Harry blushed furiously. He looked at
her and noticed that she had gotten prettier over the years, if that was possible. She was
placing a lock of hair behind her ear. It came out and went in her eye. She put it back.
It came back.
"Urgh!!" Cho groaned.
"Here, let me help." Harry said. He put the
ignorant lock back behind her ear. But then he surprised Cho and even himself when he
pulled her closer and closer to his face and then their lips touched.
Cho pulled away from the kiss.
"Er..I have to go." She quickly grabbed all her
things and rushed to the door.
Harry was mentally kicking himself.
(A/N: awwwww.......)
Chapter 7: The Meeting
Cho was running toward the Ravenclaw Common Room.
'Why did I run? He actually reached up and kissed me, and I
run? Stupid, stupid, stupid.'
When she passed the kitchen, something invisible yet very
strong clasped a hand around her throat and pulled her in....
*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next morning Harry walked in to the Great Hall looking
sullen. He slumped down next to Ron and Hermione, who were talking about an upcoming dance
that they had to plan. They hadn't even noticed Harry walk in. A small hand went on his
shoulder.
"Cho?" Harry croaked out.
She bent down and whispered in his ear, "Meet me after
breakfast next to the Whomping Willow." and with that she walked over to the
Ravenclaw table.
*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry was at the Whomping Willow a bit early than he had
intended to be, but he had to know what Cho wanted. Did she want to apologize to him and
kiss him back? or Did she want to break off the friendship completely? Harry desperately
hoped it wasn't the second one.
Cho walked up to him grinning. He took that as a good sign.
"Close your eyes," she commanded softly.
He willingly did so. He waited for a kiss, but all he heard
was flapping. He opened his eyes, and right in front of him was a creature he had never
seen before. It had large purple wings, skintight armor all over its body besides its neck
and face and it had a mask on. On the mask there was a large blue colored gem in the
middle of the forehead. It looked so much like a human, but yet it didn't. It started
toward Harry at an incredible speed. Harry yelped, but then there was something that
blocked the attack that whooshed right in front of him.
Chapter 8: First Attack
Harry stared at the 2 figures in front of him. One was the
creature that tried to attack him and the other was the new Asian girl.
'What was her name?? Melinda or something?'
They both fought pretty well actually. Both blocking each
other's attacks and returning it. Soon it went from a fistfight to a Fight to the Death.
Harry shook out of his daze and started running toward the castle to get Professor
Dumbledore. As soon as he got to the front doors of the castle, Professor Dumbledore and
Madame Pomfrey were rushing out.
"Where are they?" Dumbledore asked forcefully.
"Next to the Whomping Willow." Harry replied.
The three of them hurried over to the Whomping Willow. Harry
now noticed that the creature was flying and lunging down at the new girl, while the new
girl dodged them and awkwardly, she somehow made a sword materialize in her hand. The
creature had more of an advantage, so naturally, Harry wanted to help the new girl, but
Dumbledore stopped him.
The creature brought its hand back and clawed into the new
girl's skull. She fell down bleeding by the buckets. The creature flew up about a hundred
feet then dove toward her. She sensed her coming back, so she grabbed her sword and
pointed it upward as the creature made its final attack.
The weird thing was that the creature didn't bleed. It just
stood there with its head on a sword.
All of a sudden, it seemed that the sword was sucking in the
creature. Within a second, the creature was gone. The girl muttered something incoherent
and her sword vanished. She collapsed.
Chapter 9: Revealing the Past
Dumbledore magicked her onto a stretcher and ordered Madame
Pomfrey to treat her wounds while he questioned Harry.
"So, Harry, what were you doing near the Whomping Willow
during breakfast?" Professor Dumbledore asked Harry as they entered his office.
Harry thought a while. He wasn't sure if that was the real
Cho or not. But he decided to tell Professor Dumbledore the truth, or at least of what he
knew of it.(A/N: Does that make sense?)
"I was supposed to meet Cho there." Harry replied.
Dumbledore sighed. Harry tried to figure out what kind of
sign that was. 'Was he mad or ashamed or what?' Harry wondered.
"Well, we found Miss Chang tied up in the kitchens
unconscious."
Harry's heart leaped. So that wasn't the real Cho that was
trying to kill him. He still had a chance with her. But Harry's thoughts drifted off. He
had a different question he was sure that Dumbledore wouldn't answer quite truthfully.
"Why did the she come and rescue me? How did she
know?" Harry asked.
"I'm sure Madeline wouldn't like for me to tell you
about her without her presence, but since you both have so much in common, I'm sure she
wouldn't mind." Dumbledore said.
'So much in common?' Harry thought. 'What does he mean by
that?'
"You see, Harry, during the summer, Lord Voldemort has
been doing some....traveling. About 2 months ago, he went to America. There he got more
supporters and more enemies. He gained one important Death Eater that supposedly belonged
to a long family of Aurors.......
(Death Eater's POV)
I can't believe it! I'm actually here, working for
the all mighty Lord Voldemort. I was so delighted when he accepted me. He treated me
better than Father ever did. Just because I don't make good grades in school and
often run away from home, he thinks I'm "dishonoring" our family. Then
there's Mother, whom was always traveling to other countries to defeat some other
dark wizard/witches. I think I've seen her a bout a total of 10 hours in my whole
entire life. She never sent a letter or even a postcard for that matter. The only that
actually cared for me is my little sister, Madeline. Such a small and sweet girl. I tell
her almost everything, well, everything except this, and she always knows how to make me
feel better. Just because of her, I turned myself in to Professor Dumbledore whom, I
heard, was the most powerful wizard in the world. He said that I should become a
"Secret Death Eater". So I did, and that's how I ended up here. Lord
Voldemort must havefound out from that nasty little Peter Pettigrew, whom once was my
friend. Lord Voldemort sent me to my own home, to destroy my family.
I barge in through the front door, with Him behind me. My
parents were sitting in front of the television set watching the muggle news. Before they
had anytime to reach their wands, Voldemort cried out Crucio' and tried to
squeeze out information about other Aurors and how they plan to defeat him. When they
wouldn't do anything but scream, he yelled out Avada Kedavra' and they
died in an instant.
I just sat there, angered, frustrated and mournful all at the
same time. I mean, I disliked my parents, but I never wanted them dead. Right then, my
little sister comes through the door with many books in her hands. She must have stayed at
the library, her favorite place. When she saw Mother and Father on the living room floor,
dead, I knew that she had died on the inside. She ran to their bodies crying and sobbing,
praying that they would come back, that this was just a dream. I felt the same. But
something caught my eye. Voldemort was raising his wand to destroy my little sister, the
only one that loved me like I was. So, I did what any decent person would do. I ran and
pushed my sister out of the way of the curse. I could feel the searing pain go through my
whole body. But I thought, I deserved this, after being born such a horrible son, I should
die being a noble brother.
*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry felt very commiserating toward Madeline now. After all
that, she had been through quite a lot. Harry didn't even remember watching his
family members die. Plus, her brother was involved, while he was an only child.
"She also is in worse shape. She believes that her
family's death was all her fault. And from then, she's been sent from America to
here. Tom told me she didn't even leave the room she stayed at. I assume that she
hasn't eaten since the incident either because she certainly isn't now."
Dumbledore looked at Harry's stricken face. "Look
I'm sorry to bring this upon you so abruptly, I just thought you'd like to
know."
Harry nodded.
"If you like, you may visit Miss Chang in the Hospital
Wing. I'll tell Poppy to let you in."
"Thank you."
*~*~*~*~*~*~
When Harry arrived at the Hospital Wing, Cho jumped into his
arms and they both tightly hugged each other, holding on as if the world was ending.
"I'm so sorry Harry," she whispered with tears
streaming down her face.
Harry was about to ask her what she was sorry about, but he
was distracted by the fact that Cho had just kissed him softly and he kissed back.
Chapter 10: Welcome Back Padfoot (A/N: 2 words,
"Sirius Rules!!" Thank You.)
A few weeks after the 'incident', Harry's was back to normal,
or at least as normal it could be at Hogwarts. One day he got a letter from Sirius, his
godfather.
Dear Harry,
I'm very sorry for not writing back sooner. I was in Scotland
for a while, when I was encountered by Dementors and nearly
captured. Some muggle family saw them and started to scream,
so they ran off, so they wouldn't get into any trouble with
the
Ministry. How is school? How are Ron, Hermione, and Professor
Lupin? You will be getting your late birthday present soon,
it
will be delivered personally.
Sirius
Harry was so excited. Sirius was coming to visit him, but for
how long?
*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry was wandering the castle in search for someone to talk
to. Ron and Hermione were in the common room arguing about what the decorations for the
upcoming ball were going to be. Cho had Quidittch practice.
"Tis Mister Harry Potter?" a familiar voice
interrupted his thoughts. He looked at where the voice came from.
It was Dobby.
"Oh, hello Dob-ugh!" Harry managed to say before
Dobby tackled him and hugged him forcefully.
"Mister Harry Potter has returned!!" Dobby said
gleefully.
"Ahem,"
They both turned around. It was Winky holding 2 Dinner plates
and 2 goblets at her feet. She looked a bit more cheerful now than last year.
"We need go to give mistress and her friend dinner,
Dobby." Winky said.
Harry wondered whom they were talking about.
"Would Harry Potter like to come and give dinner to
Mistress and her friend?"
Harry nodded and they walked toward Professor Dumbledore's
corridor.
"Chocolate Frogs" Dobby said excitedly, wanting to
show off Harry Potter to Mistress.
They went inside, but instead of going toward Professor
Dumbledore's office, they went the opposite way. Winky knocked on the door.
"Come in,"
The three of them entered. Harry noticed a well-known shaggy
dog in the corner.
"Would Harry Potter like to stay for dinner?" Dobby
asked.
"Yeah,"
"Then, we shall bring Harry Potter dinner." Dobby
and Winky left.
Harry went into a corner and patted the dog on the head.
"Hey Sirius."
And with a sudden POP, Sirius was hugging Harry.
"Happy Birthday, Harry."
A/N: End of this Part. SO sorry to everyone. I had a real
busy week this week. I hope you liked this part. I'm not a real good romance writer so if
it sucks, then just say so, but if you like it, say so too. I also hope you like the
"Death Eater POV" thing. It was kinda hard to explain something like that. You
can review in the lil box down there and if you want, you can e-mail me with suggestions
for upcoming parts. Thanks to Charlz for the building up romance part for Ron and
Hermione. The next part should be out either tomorrow or Saturday. And another thing, I
read all books, but I only own the first and fourth one, so my memory might be hazy. If I
did something wrong please tell me!!!
Disclaimer: I only own Madeline, her past, her sword, her
incoherent words, and Harry and Cho's kiss. But if J.K. Rowling wants it. She can have it.
