Harry and Hermione : A wedding to remember
Disclaimer : Harry Potter and Co are owned by J.K.Rowling, Warner Brothers and Bloomsbury. The story takes after the first Sissi-movie with Romy Schneider. I've taken a few scenes from the movie and added a little Harry Potter (ouch, I'm starting to sound like professor Snape more and more ;-) ) I've also borrowed something from a fanfic I found here, but I can't find it anywhere. If you know after reading my story I've used your idea, please let me know then I'll put you up as a desclaimer as well.
Chapter 5 : A potion and a spell
The next morning, Harry woke up, stretched himself to his full length, jawned and pulled out his hand to grab his glasses. After he had put on his glasses, he glanced at his alarm clock.
"Mmm," he tought, "5 o'clock, still early morning… might try to fall asleep again…" He put of his glaces, turned to his side and mannaged to fall asleep again.
Suddenly Harry was shoken awake. Ron yelled : "Harry, Snape's about to start to brew that potion that ought to bring back the spirits of your mum and dad and professor Dumbledore! Come and watch!"
Ron left so that Harry could grab his glasses and get ready to go to the dungeons. He grabbed his cloak because the dungeons allways were a bit chilly.
Together with Ron Harry set of for the dungeons were Snape was allready gathering all the necessary ingredients for the potion he was about to make. Ron and Harry followed every move Snape made, like they were trying to know for sure he was doing it right…
Harry and Ron could hear Snape mutter something between his teeth, but didn't understand a word! Suddenly the dungeon-doors opened and McGonagall, Sirius and Remus Lupin stepped in.
"Goodmorning, Harry, Ron," said McGonagall as she saw them, "How did you sleep last night Harry?"
"Quite well, thank you, Headmistress…" answered Harry.
As McGonagall stepped towards the place were Snape was preparing everything to brew the potion Harry wished Remus and Sirius goodmorning and got one in return. After that Ron greeted Remus and Sirius as well. Then they listened carefully to the conversation between McGonagall and Snape.
"How far are you Severus?"
"I'm still busy to check and prepare all the necessary ingredients, Minerva."
"Oh, shall I go and warn the others?"
"Yes, please do… because once started, it goes very fast, and as the spell has to be spoken out within minutes after the potion is ready it might be best if professor Granger was here before I make a start on the potion."
McGonagall left the dungeon and set off to the Ravenclaw Common-room to warn Hermione.
As she entered the Ravenclaw common room she saw Hermione was already dressed and ready to go. And so was Ginny. McGonagall, Hermione and Ginny left the Ravenclaw common-room and followed McGonagall to the dungeons.
"Harry!" Hermione yelled as she entered the dungeon and wrapped her arms around his neck to kiss him.
"Goodmorning, Mione, slept well?" asked Harry, after he had kissed her goodmorning.
"Quite well thanks, and you?"
"The same for me!" he said before he whispered in her ear : "But I've missed you heeps…" and kissed her softly on the lips.
Then Hermione turned round in his arms and saw Ron standing aside. "Goodmorning Ron"
"Goodmorning Mione," said Ron.
"Goodmorning professor Snape," said Hermione.
"Goodmorning professor Granger," Snape replied.
"Goodmorning Sirius and Remus," Hermione said as she turned herself towards them too.
"Goodmorning Hermione," they both said.
"Ok," Snape said sneering, "Now we've exchanged our goodmornings we must get a move on! Or you guys won't be in time to meet professor Granger's parents."
"O yes, you're right!" said McGonagall after a glance at the clock.
"Ok, let's get started then! Do you want me to assist you professor Snape?" asked Hermione.
"That would be nice yes. Can you stir while I put in the ingredients?"
"Yes of course," said Hermione.
She stept out of Harry's embrace and walked over to Snape. She started stirring in the mixture of ingredients Snape had already in. From time to time Snape came around with another ingredient, putted it in the cauldron and watched how the potion changed colours like a cameleon.
Then finally he said : "Last one to go in. Harry, can you come over here and put it in? Carefull, you don't mess with this…"
"What is this anyway?" asked Harry.
"It's kind of dangerous, if you spoil it on the floor, the tiles will be eaten away as quick as you can say 'quiddich'. It's a very strong acid, so be carefull, be very carfull… Ok, when I start stirring, you stop, ok? And get your wand out please professor Granger…"
Snape took over the stirring part from Hermione, who got her wand out of the robes she was wearing.
"Ok, Harry, put it in right now," Snape said, and Harry added the last ingredient and stepped away.
"Ok now, professor Granger, it's your turn now…"
"Amatum Amitterum Parentis et Amicus Excitamini" said Hermione and stepped back, copying professor Snape and Harry. Hermione grabbed Harry's hand as they both waited untill something happened.
Then suddenly a grey smoke roose from the cauldron, shapes were forming. A few seconds later the shapes became clearer and clearer. Harry saw his mum, his dad and his friend Albus Dumbledore devellopping in front of him. Harry felt his eyes were filled with tears. Then a voice said : "Harry, is that you?"
Harry nodded but said nothing. The figure of his mum came nearer and nearer and bend down to hug him.
"Oh Harry," she said, "It's really you, this is real! What happened? How did you manage to get us back? How did you do it? Sirius, Remus, what's going on?"
Harry couldn't speak propperly so he let the explaining to Sirius, Remus and Hermione.
"Hello Lily, James, welcome back! I'll explain everything in a minute, but first I've got two people to introduce to you…" said Sirius smilling as he pulled Ron and Hermione close.
"These people here are Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. They are Harry's best friends since he arrived on Hogwards, about eight years ago. I don't think I've got to introduce them to you, professor Dumbledore?"
"No, you don't, Sirius, I know them already remember?" answered Dumbledore as his eyes twingled after his halfmoon-glasses.
"Hello there, professor McGonagall, or should I call you Headmistress McGonagall now?"
"O Albus… Yes, after you died I became the new Headmistress of Hogwarts…"
"I'm glad to hear that, Minerva," he said and he turned around to face professor Snape.
"Hello there Severus. Now, could somebody please explain us why we are here and how you got us here?"
Now Harry spoke : "Mum, Dad, I got your visit to me today as a gift, as I'm going to marry Hermione this afternoon. Ron's family sort of adopted me when I became friends to Ron and when they heard Hermione and I were engaged they started thinking about an appropriate gift. And as they knew how I've missed you over the years and thought about how happy I would be when you were there to attend my marriage to Hermione they started to look in old books in an attempt to get me the most wonderfull gift of all. In a very old book they came across a potion and a spell that could make dead people return, but only for a short time. Professor Snape helped out with the potion and Hermione learnt the spell. That's why you are here now and why you are here today…"
"Seems like I'm going to thank you for your help, that was very kind of you," said James as he turned to face Severus.
"It's not because I hated you when we were at school, that I can't help your son, right?"
"Thanks," Lily said simply, "It was hard enough as it was, having to leave Harry behind, not knowing if he would be fine…" she stopped talking, but everybody knew she remembered the night Voldemort came to their hidding place and killed them both.
"No time for self-pitty," said Lily with a soft smile, "we've got a wedding on our hands!"
"O, that reminds me… Hermione, Harry, Hermione's parents are about to arrive, are you coming?"
Nice work hey? Had to look and puzzle quite long on that spell, I think that's one of my one, but I won't clame it! Why? Because it's all destilated from the old classic language the Latin, and as the Romans invented that language I can't put a claim on it!
As I said already the spell destillated from Latin, and I've translated that to Engish and Dutch (my native language). As I had an old translation book Dutch-Latin (a few pages of an old schoolbook) I had to start with the Dutch version and work my way up from there. Quite nicely done, if I may say so myself.
Latin : Amatum Amitterum Parentis et Amicus Excitamini
Engelish : Beloved lost parents and friend rer-rise
Dutch : Geliefde verloren ouders en vriend sta op
Quite a lot of Snape in here too, and although I'm not very fond of him (no flammes) I like to use him as a bit of a tention maker, no offence…
So, till next chapter, keep reviewing!
