Disclaimer: The original story and any character that I myself did not introduce belong to J. K. Rowling. This story is written for the fun of it. I am making no money on the story and have no intent to do so.
A/N: This story is an extreme alternate reality fic. Some of the characters that I'm introducing are characters from a game that my brother and I play in. They don't belong to this series of books however I want to do something different. This story is to be set in Year 5.
===============
Defense Against the Dark Arts class was a revelation. Professor Potter had gone through all of their records over the last evening. Since the Gryfindors and Ravenclaws were in the class together this year, Harry and Sylvia were sitting together.
"I'm proud to be your new teacher." Professor Potter said. "I see from the notes my predecessors made, that you have a decent grounding in dark creatures and dark curses. This year we begin to pull it all together." When she saw everyone was still paying attention, she continued. "For nearly every curse, there is a counter curse, there are three notable exceptions. Even with the unforgivables, two of the three can be fought. One of them can only be dodged."
"Professor Potter?" Hermione asked. "Is there no way that Avada Kedavra can be countered?"
Looking in the direction of her son, Professor Potter said "If you happen to have the brother wand of the person who's cursing you, and if you try to do something to him at the exact same moment, there is a very good chance that nothing will happen to you if you're stubborn enough. Other than that, no."
The class was very informative. The professor wrote up on the board several curse/counter-curse combinations. They were beginning to get the feeling that the only ones who would be enjoying the class were Hermione and the Ravenclaws. Harry was just happy to spend time with his family.
After class ended, Harry asked "Professor, can I speak with you a moment?"
"Of course Harry." His mother said.
"I thought you might want to know from me before it got back to you from some other source." Harry said. "I've decided to make friends with Draco Malfoy." The look on his face was priceless when his mother spoke.
"That's nice dear." She said. "I can tell Narcissa. We're old friends from Hogwarts ourselves. She has been our best source on Lucius for years. But don't tell Draco that. If she wants him to know, she'll tell him herself."
===============
When the tryouts for the house quidditch teams were held, no-one was surprised when Ravenclaw announced that it had a new seeker. Ron was fit to be tied. Now, we'll have a three way race for the quidditch cup.
"If it's meant to be, it will be." Harry said. "I'm just worried because it's been too quiet of late. I've the very intense feeling that something is going to happen."
===============
James Potter was called to the Ministry. Since there had been a vote of No-confidence in Cornelius Fudge, Arthur Weasely was the new Minister of Magic.
"Potter," the Minister said. "It's great to have you back on the job. What you may or may not know is that the Longbottoms have been discharged from St. Mungo's this morning. Something about a new breakthrough in Magical Medicine that was introduced by your friends from the other dimension."
"I knew they'd planned on trying to rehabilitate them, sir." James said.
"Now," Arthur said, "the reason that I've called you is that it has come to my attention through various sources that there is an attack being planned on Hogwarts. As your wife and children are there, I want you and the Longbottoms to go ahead to begin organizing defenses. I will send you reinforcements as I find who has and who has not been gotten to. I will be sending Molly, Percy, the twins, Bill, and Charley."
"Do I have permission to try to bring in outside help?" James asked.
"If it will keep those kids alive, I don't care if you sew dragons teeth." Arthur was a bit out of sorts. "I'm sorry James, I never wanted this job. I hope you can forgive a bit of bitterness."
"No problem Arthur." James said.
===============
News got back to Harry and Ron that they were going to have an influx of family coming to visit. Neville who had been showing more and more promise in his other classes got a letter giving him the same information.
When the other Gryffindors found out about Neville's Parents getting out of St. Mungo's they wanted to throw a party. That idea was discouraged when they found out why all of these people were coming to visit.
===============
A/N I would like to thank those of you who have been reviewing this. I hope that as I get the time to continue, I will be able to keep your interest in the story.
