7:41
A.M. Monday the 18th of November and I finished chapter five last
night at 10:30 PM basically.
I figure I should tell you that the chapter did not go the way I hoped it
would. Instead of as funny as originally planned, or as informative as the
back-up plan, it turned and got slightly curious, or at least a little darker,
considering what I plan to do to the poor boy within the next few chapters
lol.
Basically
what you'll see in this chapter is Fleur gets introduced, we get a new arrival,
we lead up sort of to a few days of Snape torture and the attempts from the
feuding pair to fix him. Hermione gives
a gift to Harry that MAY come a bit more in use than previously expected, and
Merlin's Beard, Padfoot finally returns!
So that's all that I can come up with, besides sorry for the horrendously long
wait, and I also apologize to any fans of my "To Catch a Falling Angel"
challenge fic (though I really don't see why you'd be a fan of it, it's not the
best ::and see, without beta reading I can put that in without getting yelled
at before hand lol:: )
Anyways, just be patient with me, I can tell you, even if it doesn't seem obvious the certain activities or little happenings that take place do indeed have a meaning to them.
And another thing, to anybody who reads tell me, do you thing Sirius should be
freed? I mean do you think they should catch Peter? I need an honest opinion ok? Tell me by way of review, so I know
what direction I can take this in.
So, ::waves:: take care all!
----------
For
a moment it actually looked like the Potions Professor was going to hex
everybody in sight. But he--err, she...
merely looked affronted, glared at the very nervous girls then at the three
other Professors.
"The counter-curse, one of you ladies, please."
Something in that sentence caused a laugh from Lily and she immediately covered
it with a cough.
"Ms. Zigger, the counter-curse...Now." Severus demanded.
"Hold on! I need time to think." Lizzy said softly a thoughtful expression gazing her face.
"No…you need a brain to think." Serena quipped and earned an icy glare from her peer.
Remus smirked and pulled Harry back by his collar and Ron followed
"Finite.." he muttered pointing his wand at the two and after a
moment their hair changed back.
"Thanks!" Ron whispered gratefully
"I
suggest the two of you head up to the common room now, it'll--ahem--be safer
than here. I myself am retreating as
well." His lip twitched slightly "need to send Padfoot a little
letter..."
Harry grinned at this and him and Ron, after waving to Bell and Lily, made
their way up to Gryffindor.
'Gee much obliged, leave me here with them!' Serena's indignant voice came through.
'Sorry Serena, Remus told me to leave...' but he was definitely grinning.
'Yea, better me than you hm?'
At this Harry's grin disappeared and he smiled sheepishly, 'sorry, may the force be with you."
'What?'
'Muggle movie.'
'Oh…Right…'
------
Harry decided, morosely, to stay down in the common room that night, if only to
keep from falling asleep.
So he slipped the mysterious, yet familiar book out from under his pillow, and crept downstairs to sit in front of the fire. Curling up into one edge of the soft chair he put the book on his knees and examined it again.
A glint of silver caught his eye suddenly and he looked at the table near the window, nothing…except for a book.
Getting up he went over and picked it up. The Cover itself was more like a picture of a desk with potions bottles on one side (one red, one green, one blue) two candles on the opposite of the bottles, a book in between them, a quill lying on the empty page, a very small metallic cup in front of the book and tendrils of red, something on the desk and a picture of a man or somebody up near the corner… the title itself was in a boxed up on top of the picture:
The Crones Book of Charms and Spells: By Valerie Worth
His curiosity peeked and he opened the book, and silently to himself, read the short introduction.
Charms and ceremonies for all seasons of the moon will guide you in the ways of great wisdom.
He shut the book after a moment of extended staring and set it back on the table, hoping there was no trace of a curious on-lookers tampering as he moved back to the couch to read HIS book.
Flipping through the various pages he saw spells of many different levels, going from level 1 (like Wingardium Leviosa and Flipendo) to level 7 (a full destruction spell as well as Avada Kedavra).
Also the comparison of Wizards and Sorcerers showed up:
"The world of the Sorcerer is one which is wreathed in the mystic fires of the future. Having the same cunning and foresight as a Wizard, Sorcerers attempt to change their world through a slightly different means. While the Wizard tends towards natural magic, and a defensive position, the Sorcerer tends to have an affinity for the proactive magic and an aggressive mannerism. This does not imply that they are evil, per se, but it does show that they have a different approach tactic, and that they do (as with every distinct art on this page series) use one energy which is uniquely their own. Some consider Sorcery as it is displayed here to be the equivalent of Chaos Magic. "
It was with that last reading that he snapped the book shut, but before he could get up he heard a faint rustling noise, and saw the tapestry near the portrait opening moving, he slid down in the chair, wishing he could cast that invisibility spell on himself at the moment, if that were Professor McGonagall she'd be suspicious as to what he was doing up.
However it was not McGonagall, but another teen, Serena, who walked in slowly and made her way half-heartedly up the stairwell without so much as a glance towards his direction.
Waiting for a moment Harry let out a small sigh of relief and sat up again, this time starting at the beginning of the book and reading as much as he could, after all, it was going to be a long night.
------
It was about 6:30 when Harry snapped out of the stupor he'd fallen into sometime ago, probably around reading about the different types of spells that involved only certain emotions and why they could be fatal…
He groaned as he stretched and made his way upstairs to change for classes that day, which was Herbology, Transfiguration and "Divination". (A.K.A. New defense training!)
Once changed he grabbed his backpack and headed downstairs to the Great Hall, knowing full well that there would at least be a few people up for breakfast.
And he was right, there were a few 7th year Gryffindors chatting near the corner of the table and a few 4th years at another end chatting softly as they ate. The same went for Hufflepuff and Slytherin, as was there was 2 lone Ravenclaws (and neither was Cho).
Sitting
down he noticed a couple of the Professors sitting up at the head table, namely
Professors Lupin and Deshandra, whom both looked up and cast him curious
glances. He shook his head and grabbed
some toast chewing silently before catching sight of a new comer.
"Oi! Serena!" he called and she looked up at him then made her way over.
Before he could get another word out she spoke. "We're still rootin'"
"Come
again?"
"We've not found a, um, counter-hex for Professor Snape." She muttered as she
took a sip of tea.
"No? So, he's still…a female?"
"Unfortunately and he's about up to ninety about it."
"He's really that mad?"
She nodded. "I fear I may have stayed up a touch late trying to look for a
reversal spell with Zigger, I'm positively jaded." She said yawning to add to
her point then stopped and cast him a sideways glance. "Then again you don't
look up to par yourself Harry, you sleep well last night?"
He put off the question with a wave, telling her he'd slept fine, almost
immediately stifling a yawn that threatened him. He had to admit, wasn't one of
his better nights. However, changing the subject he asked instead. "So, what
exactly brought on the fight you and Lizzy had, and what was that spell."
"Class act that one, Zigger that is, she's a bloody prat! The argument is none
of your business, and the spell, well I don't know where she learned it, but
it's sort of a gender-switching spell, level 5 and a rather annoying one at
that." She said, sipped her tea again and went back into an explanation. "We
tried everything, but for some reason nothing works, so we're moving to
potions, she probably made a complete mess of the whole spell, it sounded like
she put too much emphasis on a syllable, but the right spell should fix it, but
it's complicated! Maybe Professor Deshandra will help?" she asked more to
herself than him.
"I don't know, I think she's enjoying seeing him this way too much to actually
be of any help to him…" he trailed off and looked up to the head table and saw
that a few others had made their way in sometime and Arabella was now talking
with Remus and Lily, amusement betraying her tone of voice.
"Well
either way, he was furious!"
"Speaking of! What was your punishment?" Harry asked curiously.
"Punishment?" she blinked. "Oh! We weren't punished; we just can't do much else till we find the way to fix it. Sort of like grounding, to a point."
"What!" he exclaimed loudly causing the
Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students to look at him oddly.
"Don't sound so happy." She said sarcastically.
"If it were Ron or myself he would have skipped detentions, by passed expulsion
and went straight in for the kill."
"Yes well, neither of you are too good at Potions are you?" she asked matter-of-factly and he had the grace to look ashamed.
"You wouldn't be perfect either if your professor had a personal vendetta against you and was always breathing down your neck."
She
raised a skeptical eyebrow and shrugged then looked up. "I've got to get going
Harry, talk to you later!" and with that she grabbed the toast he'd just put
jam on and disappeared out the great hall doors.
Glaring after he yawned again and saw Arabella disappear and a familiar figure
take her place next to Remus… "Fleur?"
(Authors Little Note: From this time on, forgive me, I'm actually going to attempt a 'fleur' accent…lol)
At
that moment she looked up and then spotted him and waved happily. Smiling he returned the wave and was about
to head to Herbology when he realized it was only 7.
But before he could gripe any he noticed Remus giving him a look that said
'come up' so he made his way to the head table slowly.
"Good morning Professors." he said slowly.
"Morning Harry." Lily said a smile gracing her face.
"Good morning Harry" Remus added.
"Morning
'arry!" Fleur smiled brightly as she ate her own breakfast.
Harry smiled at her a little and then turned back to Remus. "You wanted to
see me again Professor?"
"That
I did Harry, to tell you, today I need you NOT to bring Ron or Hermione to your
lesson, nothing interesting, but we've got need to test your skills you know,
then introduce you to your schedule for the next few weeks. Oh...and be on the
look out, a certain mutt will be arriving soon. So be prepared.," he said in
amusement.
Harry turned to leave but was stopped. "One more thing."
"Yes?" here it comes...
"What
exactly are you doing up so early? I seem to remember you and Ron liking to
sleep in?"
"Err, well...I wasn't tired really." Harry said feebly.
"No?"
"No."
A
skeptical look graced the older mans face but he sighed. "All right, go on
then, and be sure to eat more than just toast."
"And try not to let a girl steal your food." Lily added and cast a
sideways glance at Remus, swiping a bit of his bacon deftly, and starting to
chew on it, all leaving the other none-the-wiser.
Harry couldn't stop a smile from making it's way on to his face and he shook his head going back to the table, and it was at least twenty minutes before Hermione joined him with her books in tow, and another 20 before Ron showed up groggily.
"Ready
for Herbology?"
"No." Ron said miserably.
Hermione shot him a look and nodded. "I am!"
"When
aren't you?"
"Oh, come on Harry, let's leave him be." she said and cast a
disgusted look at Ron who came about 3 millimeters from falling asleep in his
breakfast before cracking awake and getting up to follow them.
--------
The day itself passed reasonably fast, with only a small outbreak in Transfiguration when Neville accidentally missed the object he was trying to change, and caused his book to smack Ron upside the head.
Lunch was over and while Hermione went to the Library to study, having a free after all, and Ron went begrudgingly to Divination, Harry headed over to the Defense classroom where he was to meet Remus.
"Professor?" he called when he walked in the partially opened door slowly.
"Back here Harry!" a muffled voice answered and he walked in further looking around, then spotting Remus at the other end of the class near a doorway.
"What's
up?"
"Today we're just going to test you, see what you can do and then decide
what to work on from there." was what he said with a serious looking
smile.
"Ok..."
"First off, teachers for today, one Lilian Deshandra, who has no classes
until tomorrow. Arabella would be here
but she's busy. I'll be here as well,
Fleur, when she gets here will also be helping you, but mostly on defense and
certain charms, she'll be like a tutor, when any of us can't train you or help
you out she'll be able to."
"Right. Ok, so how do we go about this
testing?" Harry asked unsure of what to expect.
"A duel, nothing big, we're not aiming to kill of course, but go with
whatever spells you know you can do."
"The
new defense tutor, when he shows up-" Li interrupted from her perch on the
windowsill of the empty room, "will also teach you a new way to
duel."
"What's that?"
"Sword fighting, he's an expert, it'll start out as fencing and gradually
move up. Not something normally taught,
even to Auror's unless you're in a specific trait, but it's something you
should learn." she finished and then looked to Remus who was examining his
wand.
"You ready?"
"Of course." he said with a small smile.
"You
Harry?"
"Ah..." he set the book down on the table and nodded as he pulled out
his own wand.
"Now don't hold back."
"Like you won't." Li quipped.
"Oh, I won't, we can't afford it." Remus replied seriously causing her to raise an eyebrow but nod.
There
was silence as they met in the middle of the room.
"Wands up, good, now...bow."
They did and turned around.
"The one who is left standing wins, the one who can no longer fight,
loses, simple enough. You know the
rules gentlemen, no Unforgivables and nothing that does not have a reversible
effect." she said her eyes gleaming mysteriously.
Something about this session unnerved Harry, perhaps it was the fact that the last duel he took part in nearly killed him (Twice!), or maybe it's just the nerve of dueling a teacher.
"Ready?"
"On three, 1...2...3..."
It was Remus to start the session calling out "Locomotor Mortis!"
Harry dodged it swiftly, thankful for his Seeker reflexes and came back with "Rictusempra!" but was blocked by a shielding spell.
"Stupefy!" another dodge from Harry followed by the come back. "Locomotor Mortis!" this nearly caught the professor off guard but he dodged it smiling slightly.
"Doing well Harry.." Remus muttered gaining his balance again.
"I
know a spell he could use on you.." Lily muttered casting a look at him,
"if he's read the book."
At that moment Harry got a gleam in his eye, it'd be amusing to say the least.
He pointed his wand at Professor Lupin, and at that moment Fleur opened the
door unaware of the duel going on inside. "Novo Agnus!" Harry shouted
and the surprise showing of Fleur distracted him enough for the spell to hit.
Lily
at that moment let out a startled bout of laughter and Fleur stopped dead in
her tracks looking at where the Professor once stood.
"Professor Remuz! I am zo zorry! I did not know zat a duel waz taking
plaze!" she cried in shock.
However,
all that the professor could muster was a "bah..." before the older
woman in the room fell off the sill in laughter. "Too. Too. Funny."
Harry, who was smiling now slumped back against the wall he was near and put a
hand to his head as he muttered. "Finite Incantatem" and Remus popped
back on all fours looking incredibly embarrassed.
"Very
funny." but he stopped when he saw Harry's state; he rushed over to the
boy who was slightly pale. "Harry, are you alright?"
"Hmm, oh-oh yeah, I'm fine professor, it was just a little tiresome that's
all."
"I'll bet, that was a level four spell you just cast." Remus replied
and allowed Harry to slip into a chair.
"I love that spell." Lily said and got up. "Brilliant Harry! I'm
calling that one your win, since sheep can't cast spells."
Fleur
let out a little bit of flustered laughter and made her way into the room
completely. "Zat waz brilliant 'arry!"
"Thanks." he said and took the offered goblet of liquid that Remus
had conjured up. "What's this?"
"It's just something that'll help you regain your energy a little faster,
otherwise very good."
"Ok."
and with that he drank, made a face then handed the goblet back. "So, what
now?"
"Well, besides working on your sense of humor, you do well in dueling, that
is, of course this is nothing compared to a real dueling situation. Or, what you've done before. You were quick thinking, good reflexes, I
expect that comes from your position?" Remus asked with a smile.
"Maybe, so what do we work on from here?"
"Well, I...would like very much to work with you on zerta'in sheelding
charms! You've read ze defenze book you were given I assume?" at his nod
she clapped her hands together. "Excellent!"
She had certainly worked on her English, as her accent was much less pronounced when she spoke, good thing, last year it was terrible to understand anything she said.
"Also I would like to work with you on certain accelerated defense charms and 'exes zat I think you would be smart to learn." she added casting him a stern glance.
"Yeah." he said nervously and Remus chuckled. "And I believe we will work on some newer attacks for you, as well as some certain strategies that will definitely help when coming up against certain enemies." he said seriously and then cast a glance at Lily who took this as her cue and walked up.
"Yes,
and I'll be taking your all-around, skills to a new level, seeing what we can
help you develop even more by way of your power, you have skill and
potential." she paused. "I see it in your eyes and the way you fight,
there's a conviction there that just says there's skill you have yet to tap,
and hopefully before the end of this year you'll have control over whatever may
be laying underneath." she said and smiled.
That was not something he liked, like I
need more skill, or power, whatever! He thought miserably but smiled and
nodded politely anyways.
After
that they ran him through one more duel, Fleur giving him defense tactics in her
fluttering French accent, Remus, along the way telling him to double back, dive
to the left or right, step back, throw a certain curse, and Lily telling him in
her commanding tone to put more energy into his hexes and concentrate on what
he really wanted.
All in all it worked and he soon had Remus backed into a corner but was thrown
off by a mad barking in another room and that gave the older man time diversion
he needed to cast expelliarmus and take his wand.
"Brilliant Harry!" he exclaimed handing the boy his wand and clapping him on the back and handing him another goblet of that odd potion. "You caught on quicker than I thought! And even then I was expecting quick acceleration." he positively beaming at him.
"Fleur,
is there anything else you'd like to tell Harry before I let him go for the
day?" Remus asked and she shook her head.
"No, not at all Professor, only to perhaps go over and study a few of zos
more difficult defense charms before ze next session. Ozerwise I am very impressed." she said and patted his arm
gently before making her way out of the room with a wave.
"As am I Harry." Lily said. "You did exactly what I asked, granted I can tell it took its toll, you'll definitely need your rest, good thing we did this after your other classes, you can go, try maybe...in Transfiguration and Defense class to put more concentration in the assignments you're given, it could definitely give off more of a positive outcome." she advised and blew out of the room with a jovial laugh.
"And, well I think that's enough practicing for today Harry, dare I say
you've done quite a bit of work for one day." he smiled. "And now I
believe you've a visitor, Snuffles, get in here everybody's gone!" he
shouted and the black dog bounded in before in the shake of a head Harry's
godfather stood there, but not for long as he rushed to the younger boy and
pulled him into a furious hug.
"Sirius!
I've missed you!" Harry said happily as he wrapped his arms around the
older man in a tight hug.
"No doubt you've kept busy however." he said amusing tingeing his
voice as he looked Harry over. "You look better." he said in an
approving yet still slightly angry tone. "Good, you've been eating
well. I'll bet Arabella had something
to do with that?" he asked and with a grin sighed. "Ron and Hermione,
how are they?" he asked in honest curiosity.
Harry shrugged. "Really I wouldn't know, they seem fine, been worried
though, I told them a little bit about why I was at Hogwarts."
"They don't know then."
"No."
"They should."
"When the time is ready Padfoot, I'm sure Harry will tell."
Harry was glad for Remus's interference, it was still a touchy subject but he
smiled anyways. "You're looking better yourself Sirius. I see you've kept up." he said adding a
bit of a father tone to his voice, or as much as he could muster with the
obvious grin on his face as he looked over the older man. Though his eyes still carried that
astoundingly deadened look, he was much better groomed even from the last time
he'd seen him weeks before, his hair a little longer and streaked with brown in
various areas as his fringe fell into his eyes making him look 10 years
younger. He bore deep blue robes and he could see a red shirt from the top of
the robes as he stepped into the defense class with Remus, pulling Harry along
with one arm around his shoulders.
"Why
yes I have, and I've been sleeping well, or as well as you can as a dog."
"There is a bed made for you,
you know Sirius, not like you have to spend every waking moment as a mutt.
Though...I see no difference either way..." he trailed off and shrugged
the deadly glare he received from his friend.
"So,
how have things been going Harry?"
"Fine Sirius, and I'm doing well too, though we've established that. What
about you? I don't...suppose you could tell me a little bit of what you're
doing?"
Remus looked at him sternly but his expression softened and he sighed and
looked at Sirius.
"Nope, can't." he paused. "But I can tell you this...I've always
fancied myself a rat catcher." he said and an evil gleam entered his eyes,
though not too amusing. With that a
deep bell rang signaling the end of class.
"Well
then, I dare say it's time for supper."
"No, Sirius, dinner isn't for another 2 hours at least." Harry said
with a shrug and then turned to Remus. "Should I leave?"
"We do have some things to talk about Harry. But don't worry, he'll be
here when you get back, maybe he'll pop up for a visit tonight. Take
care."
"All right. Seeya Sirius."
"Right back at ya." the older man replied hugging him again and then
pushing him out the room. "And, say hi to...Severus should you see him--I
mean-her." he said a very evil gleam in his eyes at this.
Harry grinned and nodded. "I will…" and left heading up to the Common Room, hoping to catch Ron or Hermione.
Half way up the tower he noticed exactly how tired he was, it was a real work
out, and to think, that was just the first day.
When he reached the Portrait of the Fat Lady he said the password ( veristaum
derving ) and walked in, catching sight of the two he was searching for at the
familiar couch and table near the fire place.
They looked up and smiled when he entered. "So, how'd the first class
go?"
"It was tiresome." was all he said as he sagged into the couch,
thankful for the rest.
"Details?"
"Can't. Not this time, I'll ask if I can bring you next time ok?"
"Great! Now...about your gifts." Ron said and the both of them smiled
and handed him two packages.
Weary as he was he smiled and accepted the gifts talking to them excitedly, and listening to their summer vacations raptly.
He
had to laugh when he saw Ron's gift.
Quidditch through the Ages: version II
"It
updates itself. You know? Every time
something happens! It's great, you think, maybe I could read it sometime?"
"Of course Ron!" he said and set the book aside and opened Hermione's
present and she smiled nervously when he opened the box.
It
was curious. A blue orb was on a golden
chain and it glowed slightly when he touched it. "What's this?"
"It's--well here, this'll help explain." she handed him another gift
and he opened it, a book..
Defend and Protect: The Key to protective charms.
"This
is a charm?"
"Sort of, if you're unable to use your wand in a duel, or somebody attacks
you before you can react, just say a word to activate it and it protects you
from most spells. I found it in a new
store at the alleyway." she said smiling proudly as he hugged her.
"Thanks Hermione, thanks Ron, both are great!"
"A book Hermione, you had to give him another book." Ron said and ducked the pillow thrown at him.
With
that they talked avidly until the time dinner came around and they made their
way to the Great Hall a black dog tagging along behind Harry without his noting
immediately, but once he did he smiled secretly and nudged his friends who
looked at the dog at first in shock then happily.
"Snuffles!"
"Hey snuffles!" they said as they took their places at the Gryffindor
table, Harry setting down a plate for his godfather who took it happily.
However
the atmosphere was all too perfect because, before anybody could do anything
else the doors to the Great Hall burst open again and two figures stumbled
in. One was a man with salt and pepper
Hair, his robes worn and obviously he'd been through a fight recently, the
other, was a woman he was carrying.
"No.." Harry whispered and soon two people rushed passed him. Remus and Lily followed by Dumbledore and
McGonagall as they helped the two in and out another door.
Both Harry and Snuffles went to follow but a look from Remus signaled no, so
they remained, and McGonagall went to the head table, silenced everybody and
told them to continue with their meals as such.
But
all anybody could talk about obviously was the two newcomers.
And all Harry could think about was; was Arabella ok?
Suddenly the food didn't seem all that appetizing and he pushed his plate away
and stood up his head spinning with dizziness. Must be really tired.
"Harry?"
"I'm just going back up to the Common Room, I'm not really hungry."
he ignored the suddenly worried look Hermione cast him as she argued with him
to eat. Ron shut her up and nodded.
"We'll be up soon." he reassured.
Snuffles was looking at him as sternly as a dog could and followed him closely to the Common Room, not missing for a second the sway his godson gave before entering the common room and collapsing on the couch.
"Harry!"
he asked as he instantly transformed. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah." Harry nodded and hid the grimace of pain. "Just a little
tired from today."
"They put you through the rings?"
"Yes.."
"You should have eaten more Harry. I'm sure Bell's fine." though his
own expression betrayed his voice as he sighed and ran a hand through his hair.
"We'll have to wait anyways."
"Yeah, yeah we will. Sirius, I
think I'm going, to take a little nap." he said and made his way shakily
up to the dorms his godfather right behind him.
"Harry, maybe you should go to Madame Pomfrey?"
"Why? So she can say I can't handle a little bit of extra training? I just
did a lot of concentrating and fighting today Sirius, really I'm fine!" he
argued as he sank into bed his body suddenly shaking as full exhaustion setting
in, and his eyes slowly closed against his will.
"If
you're sure..." Sirius said but his sentence wasn't even finished before
he saw his godson asleep halfway falling out of the bed.
He shook his head and moved the boy carefully and covered him up grimacing at
how pale he was. "That better be all it is." he said defensively, ran
a hand over the boys forehead and transformed into the big black dog and lay
down protectively next to his godsons body, eventually falling asleep as well.
It was then though, that the trouble was about to begin for Harry. One that would slowly take it's toll on the raven haired boy.
