Chapter 11: Look out!
When
the light was gone the two friends found them selves sitting on a grassy field
there were no building or life form as far as they can see.
¡§Where
are we?¡¨ Ron wondered out loud. Hermione didn¡¦t answer. She studied the
landscape around them. Far behind them Hermione could make out the thin
outskirts of, what Hermione assumed, a forest. To their right was a little
grassy hill. That was all that they could see from where they are standing.
Hermione looked up in the sky. It was the only thing that looked out of place.
The clouds were swirling in little bunches and hanging rather low. Hermione was
certain that if they went on the hill they could touch it. Beyond the cloud
they couldn¡¦t see any sun or moon or anything else for that matter of fact, yet
they could still see every thing around them.
¡§This
place is weird.¡¨ Ron commented seeming to have noticed the sky too.
¡§I
think this is some kind of dreamscape.¡¨ Hermione noted not caring if Ron had
paid attention. ¡§This must be where Harry is.¡¨
¡§But
how did we get here? And why are we here?¡¨ Ron wanted to know.
¡§I
think The Stone brought us here. I think we are meant to help Harry is some
sort of way.¡¨ Hermione answered looking down at her Stone. As if it understood
what she was talking about it stated to swirl and glow.
¡§But
how can we help him if we don¡¦t know where he is?¡¨ Ron was getting more than a
little frustrated. Suddenly a voice spoke to them.
You
must find him. A male voice sounded. The two friends searched
franticly spinning around trying to find the source of the voice. That was when
they noticed their Stone was glowing.
Don¡¦t
be frightened child a more feminine voice spoke out Hermione looked
down at her Stone. Yes we are in your stone.
We
are Fairies, Ron¡¦s Stone told them Our destiny is to
protect the Unfortunate one.
¡§You¡Kyou
mean Harry?¡¨ Ron asked his voice shaky.
¡§No!¡¨
Hermione cut in before the Fairies could say anything, ¡§Not Harry. He¡¦s 15 the
one you speak of is 14!¡¨ Ron looked at his friend, filled with concern, she was
denying the obvious truth. It wasn¡¦t like Hermione to deny what¡¦s true, did her
love for Harry blinded her from seeing the painful truth he just realized?
Be
calm child, the truth may be painful but you must accept it the
soothing voice came from Hermione¡¦s stone. Ron knew Hermione still don¡¦t accept
it but her expression soften.
There
is no time to argue now we have to find Him. Ron¡¦s Stone spoke.
¡§But
how?¡¨ Ron asked feeling extremely stupid.
Go
up the Hill. Hermione¡¦s Stone replied. There the one we
seek shall appear.
¡§How do
you know?¡¨ Hermione asked emotionlessly.
The
Fairy in the stone the Un¡K He wears is our brother. The Pink Fairy
spoke carefully working around the word ¡§Unfortunate one¡¨ Our
brother spoke to us. He needs us.
¡§Alright lets go.¡¨ Hermione said, still emotionless.
***
As they
walk toward the hill the Fairies told Ron and Hermione their names. The one
that lives in Ron¡¦s Stone is called Fredric and his sister Kindra inhabits
Hermione¡¦s Stone. The brother they speak of is named Somnio, he¡¦s the youngest
of all three. They are Guardian Fairies. They awaken as soon as the Stone found
it¡¦s rightful owner.
¡§So
Sirius didn¡¦t get our name carved in there.¡¨ Said Ron when they got to that
part of the story.
¡§He
found it with our names on there. It¡¦s amazing.¡¨ Hermione commented, ¡§I mean
the Stones could have been bought by someone else and we wouldn¡¦t have got it.
Is it a coincidence that Sirius just happens to stumble across the Stones?¡¨
No
it is in fact not a coincidence, his is the Deliverer whether he knows it or
not, he was meant to find us and bring us to you at the time of your great
needs Kindra explained, and as she spoke Hermione¡¦s Stone glowed
brilliant pink light.
¡§I can
see what you mean. If you weren¡¦t here then we wouldn¡¦t be here and¡K¡¨ Hermione
trailed off not wanting to say it, she can¡¦t bear to think of Harry dead, but
everyone understood.
We
are almost there Fredric changed the subject, I can feel
them! as he finished they¡¦ve reached the top of the hill.
Brother!
Wouldn¡¦t we be more helpful if we come out of the Stone? Kindra
asked.
Good
thinking Kindra! said Fredric. Two ball of light flew out of the
Stone, and two fairies appeared. They had ears with a pointed end and gorgeous
blond hair. They are the size of adult humans a little taller than Ron. Fredric
had on shirt and tights in blue, and a hat. He reminded Hermione of Peter pan
from the muggle fairy tales. Kindra had her long blond her flowing down to her
waist and she was dressed in a long pink dress that goes all the way to the
floor.
¡§Wow!¡¨
Ron stared in amazement.
¡§So this is what Fairies look like?¡¨ Hermione was enchanted too.
Yes. We can take form of a human. But some times we can shrink and become like butterflies with wings and everything. Fredric explained.
Yeah¡KKindra chuckled,like our brother Somnio would say ¡§Travel Size¡¨ Her expression turned sad.
Kindra, it¡¦s okay, Somnio would be okay. He¡¦s safer than Harry is. Fredric laid a comforting hand on Kindra¡¦s shoulder.
That¡¦s what I mean!Kindra
turned to face him If Harry dies so will Somnio! Tears
fled out of Kindra¡¦s eyes. No one knew what to do.
¡§Wow!¡¨
Hermione exclaimed suddenly to change the topic, ¡§It¡¦s beautiful!¡¨ Ron couldn¡¦t
help but nod in agreement as he stared down at the little medieval town.
Surrounding the town was not a wall but a ring of flowers.
¡§This
doesn¡¦t look like a place with something horrible that would keep Harry from
coming back.¡¨ Said Hermione.
¡§Yes.
But my dear girl keep in mind that things are not always what they appear to
be.¡¨ A raspy old voice came from behind them. Hermione and Ron quickly spun
around at the sound. They came face to face with an older version of Professor
Dumbledore. (AN:I don¡¦t know how Dumbledore can look any older but he¡¦s older.)
Only he wasn¡¦t wearing his normal purple robes (AN: Are his robes purple??), he
had a long dark brown robe on with a hood over his head. They gasped as jumped
back, nearly falling off the side of the hill.
¡§Pro¡KProfessor
Dumbledore?¡¨ Ron managed to blurt out.
¡§Yes,
that¡¦s what I may seem like to you.¡¨ Dumbledore smiled.
¡§What
do you mean ¡¥seem like¡¦?¡¨ Hermione asked, ¡§So you are NOT Professor
Dumbledore?¡¨
¡§That I
am¡K¡¨ Dumbledore smiled again, ¡§But I¡¦m not the one you know.¡¨ His words weren¡¦t
helping, it just tied more knots into the already messed up string of thoughts in
Hermione and Ron¡¦s mind. Dumbledore chuckled at the sight of the two¡¦s
frustrated and confused expression. ¡§For now just think of me as Dumbledore.¡¨
It didn¡¦t quite satisfy their thirst for knowledge but they decided that it
will do for now.
Sir
can you tell us what we are looking at? Kindra was the first to
speak.
¡§It¡¦s
the village of Fairgrove, it¡¦s a village in Harry's dreamscape.¡¨ Dumbledore
replied. The joy in his voice had fade out.
¡§Do you
live here?¡¨ Hermione asked, ¡§in this town?¡¨
¡§What
makes you think I do?¡¨
¡§Well¡Kif
this is Harry¡¦s dream that means he¡¦s controlling what happens right?¡¨ Hermione
explained, ¡§And he really likes you so maybe he¡¦d¡K¡¨ Her face grew so red she
couldn¡¦t go on.
¡§I
understand what you mean. Only there is one thing you should know, Harry dose
not control the happenings in this dream, that¡¦s why he¡¦s trapped here. He is
free to add thing to the dream but he¡¦s not capable of changing enough to
escape.¡¨
¡§If he
doesn¡¦t control this dream than who dose?¡¨ Ron asked.
Ugela
Fredric suddenly spoke, his voice filled with fear. The Soul Taker!
Ron¡¦s Stone glowed dark blue.
¡§Ah-h
young one! You know your demons well.¡¨ Dumbledore laughed a little.
¡§Who is
this Ugela?¡¨ Hermione asked.
Yes
brother, please do explain? Kindra asked. Dumbledore and Fredric
seemed to be the only ones who know what is going on.
¡§Go on.
Speaking of your fear can help you rid of it.¡¨ Dumbledore encouraged.
All
right, Fredric started, Ugela is a demon, and he takes
people¡¦s soles and traps them in a dream. This place is how he lures people
into the trap. There¡¦s a bound put on him so he cannot just steal people¡¦s
souls from their bodies. As you can see the bound is nothing, he can still take
souls. He stopped.
¡§What
dose he do with the souls?¡¨ Hermione asked a little afraid.
He
traps the souls and tortures it, hurt the person beyond bearable
Fredric¡¦s voice was trembling so much he couldn¡¦t continue.
¡§It creates great strain on the person¡¦s mental state. Eventually the person slips into a coma in the actual reality and dies, and Ugela would eat the dead soul.¡¨ Dumbledore finished leaving everyone speechless with fear.
***
¡§You
had enough yet Potter boy?¡¨ Ugela snickered as he threw another ball of energy
at the boy¡¦s limp body lying on the floor of his cavern where his is bound for
life. Stupid chains! He thought to himself as the looked at the unbreakable
chain around his right wrist and his right ankle. ¡§You are a tough one!¡¨ the
demon placed his thoughts back to the job at hand. ¡§It¡¦s taking me twice as
long to break you as it normally takes.¡¨ The boy didn¡¦t reply, he just lay
there gasping for breath.
Breath
Harry! Breath! You¡¦ve got to, you can¡¦t die here! Somnio cried
making Harry¡¦s stone glow bright green.
Harry lay on the cold smooth marble floor drenched in cold sweat form pain, he don¡¦t know how much longer he can take this. Dumbledore! Harry thought quietly to himself as Ugela sent another wave of pain through his body, Please hurry¡K
***
¡§We got
to get to Harry quick!¡¨ Hermione cried.
¡§Don¡¦t
worry, he¡¦s still strong.¡¨ Dumbledore said calmly, ¡§After being here for a week
he can still conjure me up to help you.¡¨
¡§A
week?¡¨ Ron was confused, ¡§He¡¦s only been out for a little.¡¨
A
day here is the same as a heart beat in reality. Kindra explained
as she finally recover from the shock of what they are going against.
Fredric! Brother! Are you there? a voice they¡¦ve never heard before called out. They all looked around in shock.
Somnio! Is it you?
Kindra called out franticly.
Shhh Kindra! Calm down and listen. He¡¦s trying to reach us. Fredric shushed Kindra, they closed their eyes.
Brother! Sister I¡¦m alright! But I cannot fend off Ugela¡¦s attacks, Harry¡¦s hurt badly Brother! I don¡¦t know what to do! I can feel him getting weaker! I don¡¦t think he can hold on any longer! Somnio¡¦s voice rang out in the silent space within them.
