OHHHH MYYYY GODDD, my second chapter is finally up. I'm sorry it took so
long, I had one serious case of writers block!! This chapter is dedicated
to my new Beta reader Phoenix 353. R 'n R thanx at the bottom. So here it
is chapter 2 of Harry Potter and the Sword of Eternity:
Chapter 2, Presents and Revelations
Harry wondered who the other two owls were from, but then he thought, he'd find out soon enough, but what he found he defiantly wasn't expecting.
********
Harry opened Ron's present first, only to find a personally engraved wizarding watch, Harry sat there wondering how he had afforded it, and then he read the note. It made sense after that:
Dear Harry
How's life with the muggles treating you? Not too hard I hope. Dad recently got a huge promotion and the raise that it came with defiantly has its benefits, we're all getting new stuff for school and I'm getting a new broom as a reward for becoming a prefect (I found out a week ago.) The letter said that there were another 3 prefects instead of the usual 1. Wonder who the other 2 are cause I know Herm's one, (Surprise, Surprise). Anyway I hope you like your present, I remember last year during the 2nd task that your watch got water locked and decided you could use a new one. Can you, by any chance, come to Diagon Alley on the 24th of August then spend the rest of the holiday with us at the Burrow? Send your reply by owl soon.
Always, your best friend
Ron
Harry loved his present and new that Ron was defiantly happy about his dad's promotion. He was very happy for the Weasleys, they were a great family and deserved every thing they got.
The next one was from Herm and he could not believe what he was looking at!! One brand new set of throwing stars, 12 in all, a shinny, sparkling metal, set with exquisite jewels and gems, one symbolising each month and a different person, according to their personality. Harry decided that he would allocate people as soon as he was finished with his presents. Herm's note read:
Dear Harry
How's life. You mentioned a martial arts class, so I thought you could use these, hope you like them. I've missed your owls, you're my only way to escape the insanity that is our best friend, Ron. He's been driving me MAD the whole holidays. I'm going to scream soon. On a lighter note, do you think he likes me???
Any way back to the point, Happy Birthday, see you soon.
All my Friendship, Hermione
Typical, Their only NOW starting to figure out the like each other, I've known for ages. He thought to himself.
Harry opened the present from the rest of the Weasley clan. It contained a large cake, which Harry almost through up at the sight of. He still wasn't eating, he was dangerously underweight and had, though he blamed it on martial arts, acquired a few bruises, that were NOT a result of training and practise, they had become a disgusting blue/purple. He shivered at the thought of that night, but promised himself he would not think about it, so he stopped.
Sirius and Remus present was the next one he opened, the entire note said:
Dear Harry
Happy birthday. Hope you like your present. No time to write now.
Always, Your Godfather, And Remus
In the package was an amulet attached to a leather string. It was an intertwined symbol, with the Earth, Wind, Air, and Fire guardians surrounding a castle surrounded by a mysterious Forrest. Harry loved it and put it on straight away.
The last one he was expecting was from . Ginny!
It was a wand polishing kit, which he had thought about buying himself, so it was much appreciated. Her note said:
Dear Harry
How's life, I hear you've been so busy. Are you coming to Diagon ally and to my house after that or will I only see you on September 1st? Have a great rest of the holidays.
Always with love and friendship, Ginny
His Hogwarts letter was not very interesting, though he found out he was one of the other two prefects, but this didn't surprise him, as he was HARRY POTTER and was expected to be the Golden boy.
Now it was on to the unknown presents, what were they???
He opened the first, smaller one, it was a 16 set of daggers, on each an engraving of a different animal. All magical, and, all extremely powerful, in both strength and magic. Harry gapped at the daggers, they were spectacular. Glinting brilliant, sparkling silver in the light of the moon. Harry looked through the paper trying to find a note, to tell him what they were for and who had sent them to him. To Harry the daggers looked familiar, but he couldn't place where he had seen them before. Maybe in one of the shops in Diagon Alley, though he doubted it. Suddenly Harry gasped upon recognising the set. Hermione had read aloud about them to Harry while getting a little carried away helping Harry to find thing to help him in the Third task, she had thought maybe he could conger up some weapons, if he needed them. They were "The Daggers of Harmony", only sent to a person, decided by destiny to rid the world the evils that control it. No it couldn't be him, he was not someone that you should trust with the fate of the world, was he.
'Wait a minute' Harry thought to himself, that could only mean one thing, he ripped off the paper on the last package, and admiring the parcel up, 'It's "The Sword of Eternity",' Harry picked up the sword and with a blast, knowledge, strength and purity hit him like a freight train. He felt pain, intense pain, he could not stay conscious. He suddenly past out, know nothing of the changes taking place.
********
Harry awoke 4hrs later, and got the fright of his life. He was no longer the scrawny 15 year old he had been when he past out. He was a well built, 6 ft 2 with blurry vision, he took off his glasses to find that he could see perfectly. He knew more than any other wizard alive, he held an aura of power, awe, and bravery. His hair, no longer short and messy, but long and with streaks of 6 colours: Red, meant for Love, Green, meant for Hope, Blue, meant for Peace, Yellow, meant for Harmony, White, meant for Light, And Gold, meant for Destiny, The colours of the chosen one. For him to allocate to those he feels worthy, to reinstate the Order known by three names: The Order of the Phoenix, The Order of Power, The Order of Light. Harry now new that he was never going to be like others and never would have been, even if his parents had lived. He knew of the four places of power, his four houses: Hope Manor Destiny's Mansion Light's Castle And Loves Palace. He knew that it was his destiny to face Voldemort and his fate to bear the burden of the up and coming war. Something he decided he would definitely be willing to do. His last thought before falling asleep was, 'What had happened to Hagrids present?.' *************** AN: Hope you liked this chapter!! What did happen to Hagrids present?? Find out in the next chapter. Up soon as there's no work to speak of on this end!!! R&R and tell me what you think, and please don't flame me to badly, I'm no fire elemental, (though my hair and temper, suggest differently)!! Till next time
