Featherduster
Harry awoke and looked at the digital alarm over his dresser and saw that it was already 21 of July, hi was very happy, a week ago his godfather had given him to books: 100 useful charms for a younger Marauder and How to become an illegal animage. Since he had finished all his homework on the first weak back home to the vacations, he used his afternoons to read this to books and to write to his friend's.
Because of Harry's intervention his two best friend's started to date two week's ago, and since then he received less letter from than both, but the one's that he received where nicer and thanked him for knocked some sense on theirs heads, he even received a few call's from his friend's, and believed that Hermione was teaching Ron how to use the phone. Harry told then about his meting with his godfather, and that he would be an animage by the next weekend, Hermione was against it but Harry and Ron make her agree that it was god for then, so they could hide from the death eaters and use their animal forms abilities to run from then. Harry also told then about the 100 useful charms and send then the Obscurecer charm so they also could practice magic at home.
Fred and George Weasley keep sending Harry letters about the progress of Weasley Wizard Wheezes, asking him if he had any idea of new Wheezes, they really liked a few of Harry's ideas like the clue toffee that once in the person mouth, clued it so the person couldn't open the mouth for one hour. And of course they tease Harry about their sister, telling little lies, using empty treats and stuff like that, but they seemed glad that their sister was dating a friend, and the boy of her dreams.
And of course Harry received letter's of his girlfriend, Ginny Weasley, in those letters she told him everything that happened at the Burrow, general gossips, what the twins are up to, she still didn't discovered that Harry was helping then. How was the wizard word, still without any notice about Voldemort, she still didn't write his name calling of You-know-who exactly like her brothers. She also write that she couldn't wait to see him and that she was writing to Dumbledore to ask that he aloud Harry to go to the burrow. Harry wrote to Ginny saying that he wanted to tell her everything that happened, on their years but it was very personal and dangerous telling in a letter so she should wait until he was at the Burrow, but he did told her that Prof. Lupin knew his father and that he received two books of his father, one that teach how to become an animage an other that had a lot of charms not normally teach at Hogwarts. He also send her the charm Obscurecer and said to her what it did.
He read the two books at least 5 times each. The first one 100 useful charms for a young Marauder, had tree chapter's, but before the tree chapter's there was one charm that Harry learn as soon as he read at it did, Obscurecer, it was a charm that aloud a person to avoid magical scrying so Harry would be able to use magic on the summer vacations. And than there are the three chapters: 33 spell's to break rules and don't get caught. It had spell's to avoid being heard, to open door's without making any noise, one to talk to your friends of any distance and aloud only then to hear, etc... The second chapter was 33 hexes to have fun in a Duel, this chapter had combat hexes and defences against than, the common one's like expilliarmum and stupefity and a few not used like one to create a shield to protect you from smaller hexes and charms, Harry knew this one but couldn't use it very well until now but with this book things are going to change soon. And the third and last chapter it was 33 charms to use for pleasing a woman, it had charms to create flowers, wine and romantic music, everything that you needed to create the right mud for a romantic dinner, and a few spell's for things that aren't noble to do (but very good, things to do).
The other book: How to become an illegal animage. In this book were the notes of Sirius and Harry's father, James, wrote about the ritual needed to become an animage. Harry learned that your animage form depended in a few factors: your inner self, yours best characteristics, things that made who you are, those determinate what kind of animal you would be, example with you had curiosity, loyalty and courage you would end being a feline, like MacGonagal. Your power, determinate, the size and the abilities of the animage form, example if you were powerful you could became an large animal or a magical creature, but if you didn't had power you would end being a rat like Wormtail. Harry learned the ritual by heart, he really wanted to this ritual, and he really wanted to be an animage like his father and his godfather. And depee down he hoped that he become a stag like his father.
Finally Saturday came and Harry, said to his aunt that he was going to help Mrs. Figg to rearrange her mobile, so he it would take a lot of time, his aunt said that there was no problem and she wanted him back at the house for dinner time. So Harry went to the house of his neighbour and knocked in the door but it wasn't Mrs. Figg that opened the door it was Remus Lupin. And he said:
Hello, Harry! It is good to see you after all this time.
Hello, Prof. Lupin! It's good to see you too! But what are you doing here?
He is here to help if anything went wrong in your ritual Harry - answered Sirius that now was appearing at the door to receive his godson with a quick hug.
Yes I'm. But I'm here also because of my duties as a Marauder; I'm here for your initiation as a Marauder Harry. - Said Lupin giving Harry a hug to - and please call me Remus. I'm not your teacher anymore.
Initiation? - Asked Harry concerned.
Yes, initiation. Your ritual, and then we have to gave you your Marauder nickname, and put it on the Marauder's Map. - Answered Lupin again.
So Harry are you ready to do your ritual? - Asked Sirius with a glint on his eyes. A glint that it was saying that he was enjoying this very much.
Yes I'm. - Answered Harry.
So what are you waiting to start - asked Remus leading Harry to the living room.
As soon as Harry arrived to the living room he noticed that the room was magic expanded. And all the first aspects of the ritual are already done. So Harry started the ritual, lighting the candles with his wand, and muttering the words to please the mystical energy, the candles are forming a pentagram, and each candle lighted start to concentrate energy. When all the candles are burning Harry stood on the middle of the pentagram, and said the final words "let out my true form", and the energy started to swirl around the pentagram with a huge speed. All this energy then went to Harry's body, and when this energy hit him, Harry lost track of the time, all that he felt as that he was floating and it wasn't just his body his mind as also floating. Harry felt all his characteristics been numbered in front of his eyes, courage, nobility, sharp mind. His feelings also past truth his mind, the guilty, the happiness when he was with his friends, the joy of flying. And then as subit as it started it all end.
Sirius gasped, he saw that Harry didn't need help to accomplish this ritual but at he was seeing now took his breath, Harry accomplished the ritual in three hours, and had become a magical creature. Where was Harry now was standing a creature half giant eagle, half lion.
Harry looked at himself. He could saw that he had huge, powerful, balk wings, and that he had eagle claws, and feathers in half of his body, jet black feathers in very odds angles, just like his hair, and a yellow beak 20 cm long. And the other half of his body he had dark yellow fur and a tail, he had powerful paws with dreadful claws on it. He saw that he was huge, bigger than Buckbeak. His wings were at least 5 meters long, each side. And looking in to a mirror he saw that he still had his scar and that his eyes still were piercing green put now they were like eagle eyes. Then he wished became human again and saw that himself in the mirror than looked at Sirius and Lupin and saw then staring at him gapping like fishes out of the water.
Why are you starring at me like this?
Harry do you know what you just did? - asked Sirius who had recently closed his mouth.
Yeah I became an animage. - answered Harry.
Yes you did. But you took half of the time that your father and Sirius take. And you became and magical creature. - said Lupin, who also had recently closed his mouth.
Ops. I know that I am a Hipogryffin, and I know that is hard to became a magical creature but I didn't know that I took half of the time that my father take. - said Harry
Well Harry, don't worry about it now. But you aren't a Hipogryffn, you are a Gryffin. - said Sirius.
Gryffin? - asked Harry.
Yes Harry. Gryffins are class four magical creatures, they are lethal as lions and fast as eagles. They are extremely powerful and rare. But you are bigger than all the ones that I saw. You can learn more about than in your book about magical creatures - answered Lupin.
Yes and now off with the cheap chat. Harry from now on you are a Marauder and should address to us as Moony and Padfoot and we, and any Marauder that come after you should dares to you as... - as saying Sirius when he was interrupted by Lupin.
Featherduster. - said Lupin
Featherduster? - asked Sirius.
Yes doesn't he look like one. - answered Lupin.
Now that you mention it. - said Sirius.
Well Featherduster we have to leave now, you modify the Marauders Map, putting your nickname on it. And then you will be an official Marauder. - said Lupin while giving Harry a hug and than he aparated away.
Yeah bye Featherduster - said Sirius while messing Harry's hair and the he also aparated away.
Harry hushed to the Dursleys. He couldn't believe he was an animage, and a powerful one for what matters. He hushed to his bedroom throw himself at the bed and started to sleep on the spot he was way to tired to do anything else.
Next Chapter: The best nightmare.
