Chapter 4: The Oracle
"Where are you taking me? Rose asked.
"The Evical Oracle, on the second floor." he answered.
"Dad, there are no other rooms on the second floor."
"Of course not. It's underground. The door to the passage is up here." Roses eyes were getting wider.
"Where's Mom? And Remus?
"I have no idea," he said, a twinkle in his eyes. "Maybe we will see them on the way."
Right as Harry said that, Remus walked out of his office, which they happened to be passing. Harry muttered something to him, which Rose couldn't hear, and Remus turned around and went back into his office, smiling.
"Dad! Where are we going!?" Rose was getting frusterated.
" I already told you, the Evical Oracle." He continued walking, faster, looking at his watch. "Hurry up... we need to be there in 10 minutes. "
"Why?" Rose asked. Rose seemed to be getting impatient.
"*Because*," Harry answered. After that Rose stopped asking questions.
About five minutes later they arrived at the passage. It was hidden behind the statue of Merlin.
"Do you know the password?" asked Harry.
"I don't think so, should I? He started wondering what her dad was getting at.
"Try thinking about it."
Rose pondered for three minutes, searching through her brain and around her for the password. Finally, she came up with what she thought was the password.
"Is it lagive, or evogic?"
"Yes! It is evogic!" Harry smiled, his wide grin. "This proves it!"
"Proves what?"
"You'll find out in about one minute."
After walking down the stairs, they reached a stone circle, little stones creating a thin circle in the hard, brown dirt. They walked right into the middle of it. Rose looked around, wondering why it was so plain.
"Tam Evogic Niglam!" yelled Harry, motioning at Rose to do the same.
"Tam Evogic Niglam!" she yelled, with a little uncertainty in her voice.
All of a sudden they started floating, higher and higher. Rose was suprised and the look on her face made Harry laugh. Soon, the stone circle disappeared, and they slowly floated down onto the ground, which was completely changed. Her mother and Remus appeared, along with Sirius, Ron, Lavender, and Dumbledore.
Hermione looked stunning. She was wearing robes of a light blue, her brown hair sleaked back in a blue clip. Harry was wearing robes of a dark green, which matched his eyes. There was a gold star on his arm, with the word "evical" written under it. His arms were wrapped around her waist and they were both smiling.
Then Rose looked down at herself. She was dressed in robes of Lavender, with a silver star on her sleeve, and the same words as Harry had written under their stars. Her hair was pulled up like Hermione's, but in a silver clip, to match her star.
Rose turned around to see a large wizard standing in front of her. He was dressed in robes of deep blue, with gold stars all over it. He had a large white beard, slightly smaller than Dumbledore's, and had dark blue eyes. His hat was made of the same blue material as his robes.
Everybody sat down on the white stone benches, allowing Rose to see the background. They were once again in a circle, but this time it was of grapevines and roses. In the green, there were pink and red roses, and purple grapes. Rose was amazed. All of a sudden, the large man spoke and Harry was at her side.
"Hello. My name is Thomas Sykes," said the strange man. "From this point on you will know and understand what your are and how to use this."
"What am I?" Rose, being smart as she was, realized she must be the same as her father. Then Sorceror Sykes spoke.
"You are a powerful person and have special powers, which are named evogic ilogam." He paused. "What it is is a mix of good and evil powers, which was inherited from your father. Harry received his powers when he was one, and is related to his scar. Your scar holds the same purpose."
"Oh... Ok." Rose was astounded. She always knew *She* was different, but not how different.
"But these powers have a good... and a bad side. The bad includes that it will greatly endanger your life, as many dark wizards will want you for your powers. The good includes mind control, flying, and other unusual powers that normal wizards or witches do not acquire. But these powers recquire much practice, as your father already knows."
Rose merely nodded, finally understanding. Then she spoke.
"So I am evical, like my dad?"
"Yes. From now on I will teach you what you must know in order to use and control your powers," replied Sykes.
"I will also be there to help you. Although I will not be there to help you most of the, I will be there when you absolutely need me," said Harry.
"You'd be suprised how much I can help you also," Hermione told Rose. " You have no idea how much time Harry and I spent working with his powers, starting even before we knew of his powers."
"Thanks everybody," Rose replied to all of them. Her smile was bigger than ever.
Everyone conversed for a while, but had to go back to the school, and Albus back to Hogwarts.
