Chapter 7
Note from me: I have recently developed a cold. Not going to write till I'm better. SO HA! Fine I will, but you're forcing me
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. So blah.
"Hmm . . . How about that eh?" Jessica said.
"Ouch you're hurting my head. Don't talk." Harry said.
"Now that you mention it, my head hurts as well," Jessica put her hand to her head.
"Ack! You're all in my head!" Ron screamed.
"Wow. . ." Kim said.
"Wow is right," Matt whispered.
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" A stern voice said in the direction of the portrait.
"AHHHHHHHH!!! DON'T YELL!" They all screamed in unison.
"What did you do?" They turned around to see Professor McGonagall.
"I dunno, something in that book." Jessica groaned clutching her head.
"WHAT BOOK!?" Professor McGonagall screamed, although she already knew.
" 'The gift of friendship, a magical study'" Jessica said hesitantly.
"My Goodness! I told her to get rid of that book years ago!" Professor McGonagall said in a panicky voice.
"What's the problem Professor?" Hermione asked.
"You foolish children, you don't realize what you've done do you?" She asked.
"Umm . . . obviously not," Matt said.
"This particular spell has been banned for years! You could go to Azkaban for this!" She panicked.
"But we didn't know!" Blaine protested.
"I realize that! We'll have to go to Dumbledore, he'll know what to do," Professor McGonagall said.
"That won't be necessary, I felt the power." The Headmaster said.
They all looked to Dumbledore who just came in through the portrait hole. His eyes weren't twinkling now. . .
"Miss Granger, this is by far the most irresponsible thing you've ever done," Dumbledore said in a stern voice.
"I . . . I didn't know!" Hermione protested.
"It wasn't her fault!" Jessica yelled.
"Miss Tamarrell, are you telling me that this was your idea?" Dumbledore looked at her.
"Yes, it was," Jessica bowed her head.
"Where did you get this idea from? A certain fanfiction. . . ?" Dumbledore implored.
"You read it too? Wasn't it miraculous?!" Jessica said excitedly.
"Jessica, tell me. Do you remember what happened to the two after they bonded?" Dumbledore asked.
"Ummm. . . Maybe. . ." Jessica said.
"Yet you still went through with this," Dumbledore stated.
"Headmaster, it was the only way! I know what happens, and I feel that we could stop it! Voldemort isn't getting any weaker Professor! I know what he's planning! I know everything! This is THE ONLY WAY!" Jessica screamed.
"Yes! We have to save Hogwarts!" Kate screamed.
"And how exactly do you know this information Miss Tamarell?" Professor McGonagall asked.
"If I were to tell you, it would skew the future, we wouldn't know what was coming. The fact that we are here changes factors that shouldn't have been changed. But since we're here and we know, then we can help. But we can only help at the last moment. I know things that would make your blood curl." Jessica snarled.
"With that bond, you've created the most dangerous weapon. Combine all your powers and you could destroy cities, countries, the world," Dumbledore said.
"I know," Jessica stated.
"You're going to have to just accept it Professor, You can't change it," Kate said.
"Professor we must tell the ministry!" Professor McGonagall protested.
"No, they're right. We must use them. They are our only hope. Remember Voldemort, Minerva. Remember." Dumbledore said to Professor McGonagall.
"WE WILL NOT BE YOUR TOOL!" Jessica yelled.
"You will not use us," Draco said.
"Miss Tamarell, I can't change what you did. You know what happens. You are one. You can feel each other. What do you think will happen if one of you falls in love? Did you think about that Jessica?" Dumbledore asked.
"Then we will let them enter our bond," Jessica said.
"You can't!" Professor McGonagall.
"I know it is possible Professor," Jessica said.
"You have made your decision; you will have to deal with the problems that come along. But as a weapon for the wizarding world against Voldemort I will provide you all with a dormitory of your own. There is no way that you could all stay apart and live for very long," Dumbledore concluded.
"We will destroy Voldemort," Kimberley said to his back.
Dumbledore turned around, his eyes twinkling once more.
"I'm sure you will," He said.
(OOOOOOOOOH! AHHHHH!!! *I'm freakin myself out! *)
------ The new dormitory.
"I hope you realize that this isn't a treat, it's a necessity," Professor McGonagall said in a stern voice.
"What ever," Kimberley said.
"I can't take points off your house, since you are probably the weapon that could save us all, but I can tell you that I am very, VERY disappointed." Professor McGonagall said.
"Ooh I'm trembling in fear." Draco laughed.
"But I can punish you," Professor threatened.
"Like what?" Ron asked afraid.
"I can do many things. But I AM going to have to remove you all from your houses. You are no longer Gryffindor nor are you Slytherin." Professor McGonagall said.
"What! What about the quidditch team!?" Harry protested.
"Hope that your friends are good flyers. You will have your own team, and your own house. But do realize that there is probably no way of winning the house cup with such few students. You can make up your own name. . . And I will assign Professor Moody for your Head of house for the year," Professor McGonagall said then she turned and left.
"You're kidding me," Jessica said.
"I've never been on a broom," Kimberley whined.
"Well I can't fly," Hermione said.
"Dammit! We were going to win this year too!" Harry yelled.
"This is ALL your fault," Hermione yelled at Jessica.
"What's more important, quidditch? Or saving the bloody world?!" Jessica asked them.
They just looked away.
"We start quidditch training tomorrow," Harry said.
"What about me?" Hermione asked.
"Even you." Harry concluded.
"Hey on the bright side we get to make up our own name!" Jessica said excitedly.
"Ooh! How bout the Matthew's!" Matt said.
"Ooh! How bout not!" Kate said.
"Oh please," Draco drawled.
"Lets be something cool," Jessica said.
"Well duh," Kimberley laughed.
"Well, the other houses are last names, sooo, we can't do that," Hermione said.
"They all have an animal, what's a cool animal?" Blaine asked.
"I liked snakes," Jessica and Draco pouted.
"Me too," Kimberley added.
"Ok so no animal," Matt concluded.
"Well. . . we're a weapon. That's what Dumbledore calls us," Jessica said.
"The weapon for wizards is a curse," Draco said.
"Oh come on! Guns are cooler. I bet if we aimed a gun at Voldemort, he'd die as quickly as any other person," Matt said.
"Swords!" Jessica said excitedly.
"Daggers!" Kate said.
"Nuclear bombs!" Blaine said.
"Nuclear bombs?" Jessica asked.
"Well you guys took all the cool ones," Blaine frowned.
"GUN BLADES!" Kim screamed.
"Umm. . . no," Jessica laughed.
"Oh please, half of the students wont know what the hell you're talking about." Hermione said.
"Now that you mention it, I'm a little lost," Ron said.
"A Nuclear bomb could kill all of the students in the school in a matter of seconds. It could take out half a city. There's no Ava Kedavra to it. It's a weapon of Mass Destruction." Jessica explained.
"Damn, So if we tried to take out all the muggles in the world, like Voldemort is doing. . . then it wouldn't matter, they could kill us in a matter of seconds," Draco said.
"Don't tell me that you actually are a deatheater" Jessica scowled.
"No, but my father is," Draco said.
"Flamethrowers are cool," Jessica laughed.
"Rocket launchers."
"I'm running out of weapons," Kimberley said.
"Can't we just decide?" Matt said.
( note from me: Sorry about this. . . I actually don't know what to name us. . . hence why it's taking me so long)
"Ok well I vote on swords," Jessica said.
"Me too!" They all agreed.
"or guns. . ." Jessica changed her mind.
They all groaned.
"Ok well how about this: The Guns of Heaven" Jessica concluded.
"Umm. can we be the: Guns of Hell?" Kimberley asked.
"Ooooh: The Guns of Satan" Matt said.
"Ok how 'bout: The Guns of Morningstar," Jessica finished.
"I like it," Blaine agreed.
"Who's Morningstar?" Harry, Ron and Hermione asked.
"Seriously. . . does no one read the bible?" Jessica asked.
"What are you talking about?" Hermione asked.
"Read Isaiah 14:12, it says this: Isaiah 14:12 "How you have fallen from heaven, O morningstar, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! Morningstar = Lucifer." Jessica explained.
"Wow. . . . do you read the bible?" Harry asked.
"No, but I did read a book called 'Archangel Protocol'
(Note from me: Excellent book by the way. Just amazing. And the other one! Helped me understand the whole Four Horsemen thing! A MUST read. And Fallen Host. REALLY COOL! Especially my favorite character: Morningstar.)
It explains the whole thing," Jessica explained.
"Yah, I knew you didn't read the bible," Kate said.
"Bah, so does everyone agree?" Jessica asked.
"We like, can we go to bed now?" They asked.
"Mais oui," Jessica said.
"Uhh. right," Said Kim, Harry, Ron, and Draco, who don't speak French.
They went up to their dormitories, which were just like the other ones, but all white. They would choose their colors later. On the other hand, they had a much better view from their windows. That's good right?
And so they slept.
--------
Next morning at breakfast
"Where are we supposed to sit?" Harry asked.
"I dunno Potter, I was thinking that EMPTY TABLE OVER THERE!" Draco drawled.
"No need for sarcasm Draco," Jessica said.
"Fine, well let's sit down," Ron said.
They sat down at the table and grabbed some toast.
"Whoah the hostility!" Matt said, looking around at the school as they glared at them.
"Well. . . we did take both the Gryffindor and Slytherin's Seekers," Jessica said.
"That's true, look Dumbledore's going to say something," Harry pointed out.
"Dear students, you will notice that there is a separate table for some students who made some very bad decisions. These decisions are irrevocable, and we have no choice but to accept them. I can not give details, but in the end, these few students could save the world as we know it. It has been decided that their Head of House will be Professor Moody for the year, and they have chosen their new house name. This new house will only be in place until they leave the Hogwarts school at the end of their twelfth year, unless circumstances prevent this. They have decided on the name, 'The Guns of Morninstar' and I have decided that their house colors should be black and white. Black for the poor decisions that they have made. And White for the hope that they will bring to the world. I hope you will not shun them, or hate them. They will have their own Quidditch team, and they will be living in their new dormitories. No information will be disclosed in case some students might follow in their footsteps." Dumbledore said solemnly then he left the hall.
Whispers echoed throughout the hall as the students stole glances at the new house.
"Guns of Morningstar? What kind of name is that?" Ron's brothers came over. Clearly upset that Ron and his friends should get all this special treatment.
"I don't know, some muggle thing," Ron said glumly.
"Oh Ron," Hermione sighed.
"Well, I hope that your quidditch team will do well," George smirked.
"Yah. . . I hope to," Draco and Harry sighed.
"Look the post is coming in!" Jessica said excitedly. She had only seen the owls come in once and she thought that it was fascinating.
"Harry, there's a letter for you," Hermione pointed out, even though Harry knew since the letter fell into his porridge.
"It's from Snuffles!" Harry said excitedly.
"Snuffles?" Kimberley asked.
"My. . . umm. ." Harry stammered, not knowing if he should tell his new friends.
'His godfather, an ex-convict, anigmus. . . dog," Jessica said in a sort of trance.
"What?! How did you know?" Ron asked.
"You forget, we're bonded Ron, I can willingly go into the bond and see what you are all thinking. I can see what you all know. I know what you feel, what you wish. I bet we could even send messages to each other telepathically." Jessica said.
"Oooh, this is going to be very useful in tests!" Kimberley said excitedly.
"Hey, you know the second book?!" Jessica asked her friends.
"I read that one!" Kimberley said.
"I saw the movie!" Matt said.
"You did not, don't lie Matt," Kate rolled her eyes as Matt pouted.
"Well, you know how Harry is a parseltongue?" Jessica asked.
"Yah," Kate answered as Blaine and Matt looked confused.
"Well! I bet that we could all speak parsel toungue!" Jessica said.
"Ooh! Like we could talk to snakes?! That's so cool!" Kimberley exclaimed.
"That also means that we might have to put up with scar pains like Potter," Draco said.
"We might have to put up with each other's pain. . ." Jessica said quietly.
"Well as long as no one gets hurt," Kimberley said cheerfully as Ron and Hermione groaned staring at Harry.
"On the other hand, I bet we could all speak French now," Jessica said.
"Bonjour," Ron said.
"Comment ca va?" Harry asked.
"Tu es un poisson," Kimberley laughed.
"Yah. . . Ok Kim. . ." Blaine said.
"Yah, but what does the letter say?" Kate said, trying to get everyone back on track.
"Yah Harry!" Hermione said excitedly.
Harry picked up the letter and glared at those who tried to read over his shoulder. Of course. . . little did her know that everyone reached into the bond and read it with Harry's eyes.
Harry -
I'm flying north immediately. This new about your scar is the latest in a series of strange rumors that have reached me here If it hurts again, go straight to Dumbledore - they're saying he's got Mad-Eye out of retirement, which means he's reading the signs, even if no one else is (Jessica snorted at this)
I'll be in touch soon. My best to Ron and Hermione. Keep you eyes open, Harry.
Sirius.
"What a load of crap," Jessica said.
"Whats crap?" Harry asked.
"Uhh nothing," Jessica said.
"This is bad, he's going to get into danger coming here. And wait a second. You all read the letter didn't you?" Harry asked.
They all looked away, though Draco snickered.
"Oh please, there have to be rules!" Harry protested.
They all attempted to look away farther, but only managed to hurt their necks.
"This isn't fair!" Harry said as the rest got up and quickly left the room.
"Hey! Is anyone listening?" Harry yelled towards their back.
---- -
Moody's class.
"Soooo Harry, it seems that I'll be the Head of your house," Moody said.
"Who says it's Harry's house?" Matt protested.
"Well I just assumed since Harry is. . ." Moody trailed off.
"Harry is what? The golden boy?" Draco sneered.
"It's not Harry's house, its all of our house. We're one now Professor," Jessica glared.
"Although Malfoy is making it difficult," Ron scowled.
"You're not much help either Ron," Kate said.
"Well, I suppose that whoever's house it is, that we will do quite well this year. Ok now onto the lesson. Today I will be putting the imperius curse on each of you to see how well you do, and if you can resist it." Moody explained.
"That's illegal!" Hermione protested.
"Dumbledore wants you to know," Moody said.
"Yah. . ." Jessica glared at Moody.
"Who wants to go first?" Moody asked.
Silence
"Ok then we'll just go in turns," Moody said.
The class watched as some of the students did amazing things. Some would be impossible if it weren't for the curse.
"Ok. Mr Potter," Moody said.
Harry stepped up like the rest of the class. 'Imperio' Moody yelled. Harry felt a sense of leaving his body. As he floated through the air, he heard Moody telling him to: Jump onto the desk.
Of course. The others (through their bond) thought that jumping onto the desk was ridiculous. They told Harry to: Pull down your pants Harry. Pull down your pants.
To tell you the truth. . . that's what Kim was saying. But the others went along thinking it was hilarious.
Harry who was still standing there, neither jumping nor pulling down his pants, blushed a deep pink.
"You want me to WHAT?!" Harry said turning to look at his new 'friends'.
The class watched in confusion as they all burst out laughing.
"Harry, do you realize that you just threw off the Imperius curse?" Moody asked.
"Yah." Harry said as he glared towards his friends.
"That's amazing! Potter through off the curse! First he beats Avada Kedavra, and now he beats the Imperius! It's absolutely amazing!" Moody jumped around on his wooden leg.
"Bah, we get no credit at all," Blaine grumbled.
"No of course not, I mean it's the Golden Boy," Draco snarled.
"To bad he didn't take his pants off though, that would've been a laugh," Jessica said.
"Poor Harry," Hermione sighed.
Moody went through the list of students, of course all of the Guns of Morningstar threw off the curse. They were all bonded so the other's helped out like they did for Harry.
"Amazing, nine students who can resist the curse. This is truly a reason to celebrate," Moody smiled as the students left the room.
"My god, that was pretty funny," Jessica laughed.
"Pull down your pants?! I can't believe you told me to do that!" Harry said indignantly.
"Oh suck it up," Matt said.
"Well. . . at least we won't have to worry about that curse," Kate smiled.
"Or that Kedavra thing," Kimberley grinned.
"How did you do that anyways Kim?" Jessica asked.
"I dunno, I just willed it to live I guess," Kim shrugged.
"You mean it was really dead?" Hermione gasped.
"Well yah," Kimberley said.
"I wonder how powerful we really are," Jessica said.
"Well for one thing, we can do magic without the use of a wand," Matt observed.
"We can bring back the dead," Kate said.
"We can throw off that stupid curse," Blaine added.
"Well the actual question is, are Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Draco, as strong as we are?" Jessica wondered.
"I don't know, we could always look through the bond," Kate said.
"Yah of course," Jessica said.
"Well we really need to get to class, we have transfiguration," Hermione pointed down the hall to the classroom.
"Cool, we've never had this class yet!" Jessica said.
"What's transfiguration?" Kimberley asked.
"That thing. . ." Blaine said.
"What thing?" Matt asked.
"I don't know!" Blaine yelled.
"Argh come on we're going to be late!" Draco snarled.
They rushed into the classroom and took their seats in the back of the class.
"Good day students. I understand it's your first class here?" Professor McGonagall lifted her eye brow towards the Guns of Morningstar (GoM) sitting in the back.
"Yes'm!" The smiled.
"Very well. Today we will be attempting to turn this dove into a fan. It shouldn't be hard if you managed to turn the hedgehog into a pincushion like Miss Granger did." The professor said as she passed out cages to the students.
Hermione blushed a deep shade of crimson and accepted her bird.
"Isn't this a waste of birds?" Jessica asked.
"Poor birdie," Kate said stroking her bird.
"If you want to fail this term, then yes it is a waste of birds. But I don't think you want to fail," McGonagall said sternly.
"Ok," Jessica shrugged.
"Ok you will have the rest of the class, try not to make a mess of things," McGonagall stared at her new students.
"That's unfair," Kimberley whined as McGonagall gave them a dirty look.
"I don't know how to do this! She didn't explain it," Jessica stared at the bird.
"Just . . . try and turn it into a fan," Hermione said.
"It might work easier for you Miss Tamarell, if you had a wand," Professor McGonagall said sarcastically.
"That's it," Jessica glared towards the teacher. Then she took the bird out and set it on her desk. The class watched in amusement as Jessica tried to turn the bird into a fan without using a wand. But after about five seconds of staring the bird suddenly turned into a white silky fan.
"HA!" Jessica laughed triumphantly.
"Oh! I see how you did it!" Kimberley said excitedly, as she looked at her bird and it turned into a fan.
The class watched in amazement as all of their birds suddenly changed into fans, one after another.
Harry, Hermione, and Draco obviously couldn't do this without using their wands, so they to watched in amazement. Soon the whole class was covered in multi-colored fans.
"Miss Tamarell, Miss Chang, Miss Endril, boys, I think that you have made your point," Professor McGonagall stared at them in amazement.
"I think we have," Jessica grinned.
In a matter of seconds all the fans, but their own, turned back into pearly white birds.
"I think we should give the other's a chance," Jessica laughed as the class and Hermione glared at them.
"Yes, I think they should get to work," Professor McGonagall turned around and watched as the students got back to turning their birds back into fans.
Jessica, Kate, Kim, Matt, and Blaine sat their chatting since they had already turned their birds into perfect fans.
-------- -
"Do you think that through the bond that we can learn how to do wandless magic?" Hermione asked, not liking that the other's had an advantage on her.
"Not sure," Jessica shrugged.
"It's cool," Kate said as she juggled fire in her hands.
"Kate . . . you're going to burn us," Draco drawled.
"What ever goes best!" Kate laughed.
"Well, I think that we should really get to potions then," Jessica sighed.
"Wonder why Snape doesn't like us anymore," Blaine sighed along with Jessica.
"Probably because of Kim," Matt laughed.
"Did you notice that we never went to that detention?" Kimberley looked nervous.
"I don't think I want to go to potions anymore," Matt said as he started to walk in the other direction.
"Oh don't be a wuss," Jessica rolled her eyes as she grabbed the back of Matt's shirt.
"At least we're not late," Kimberley smiled.
---------- - Potions class.
"Everyone give a nice round of applause for Mr. Potter, for breaking the rules, and being rewarded for it once again," Snape said sarcastically, then he growled at the students who actually started clapping. One being Kimberley.
"Oh Pipe down Professor," Jessica snarled.
"Miss Tamarell, I wont take you using that language with me," Snape snarled back, "and you Miss. Chang. I have no proof, but I'm most certain that you were the one who caused half of my hair to disappear. I'll be watching young lady. I'll be watching. . ." Snape said to Kim, who was crossing her eyes and making faces right to his face.
"Soooooo. . ." Blaine said looking at his watch.
"Just because you have your own house, doesn't mean that you have permission to be snarky to your professors." Snape said.
"Can we start the lesson now please?" Kate asked politely.
"Yes, we can." Snape snarled, "Today we will be making a potion called 'Vite' this potion will. . ."
"Make us go fast?" Jessica asked.
"Yes, it seems someone's been studying, Five points for GoM." Snape said oily.
The Calgarians sniggered because the name means 'fast' or 'quickly' in French.
"Ok, here is the list of ingredients, now go to work," Snape snarled.
Everyone got up and went pulled out their cauldrons.
"So, what ingredients do we need?" Jessica asked.
"Zest of Foxfruit, Dreamwood powder, Gatorade?" Hermione listed the rest of the ingredients, as the Calgarians looked into her bond to find what the ingredients looked like, then they just created them with their magic. Except for Gatorade, which Hermione didn't know what it was. Good thing they did though.
They had all their ingredients in big jars which sat on the table. They read the instructions out loud and as they read the instructions they used magic to do it for them.
"Mix the Foxfruit and Dreamwood powder into boiling water. Stir clockwise four times, and then add the Gatorade and stir twenty times counter clockwise." Jessica mumbled. Amazingly as she said it, the jar of Foxfruit lept up and poured out just the right measurement of Zest into the pot, the same with the Powder. A fire burst up around the cauldron and caused it to boil in three seconds flat. A spoon magically appeared out of thin air and stirred the four times. Then the Gatorade appeared and poured itself in. "Excellent," Jessica laughed, finished, as she watched the other Calgarians finish in the same manner.
Harry, Hermione, and Ron had another reason to glare, as they were still measuring their ingredients.
"What is this?" Snape snarled at her potion.
"The potion, der," Jessica rolled her eyes.
"Well then, let's see you drink it then," He smiled.
"Sure why not," Jessica shrugged. She then put a little into a cup and drank it.
The class watched nervously as her face started to turn a deep. . . .
Green
Note from me: Watch the movie Waydowntown. It's about Calgarians. Might get a better idea watching it. So yah!
Note from me: I have recently developed a cold. Not going to write till I'm better. SO HA! Fine I will, but you're forcing me
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. So blah.
"Hmm . . . How about that eh?" Jessica said.
"Ouch you're hurting my head. Don't talk." Harry said.
"Now that you mention it, my head hurts as well," Jessica put her hand to her head.
"Ack! You're all in my head!" Ron screamed.
"Wow. . ." Kim said.
"Wow is right," Matt whispered.
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" A stern voice said in the direction of the portrait.
"AHHHHHHHH!!! DON'T YELL!" They all screamed in unison.
"What did you do?" They turned around to see Professor McGonagall.
"I dunno, something in that book." Jessica groaned clutching her head.
"WHAT BOOK!?" Professor McGonagall screamed, although she already knew.
" 'The gift of friendship, a magical study'" Jessica said hesitantly.
"My Goodness! I told her to get rid of that book years ago!" Professor McGonagall said in a panicky voice.
"What's the problem Professor?" Hermione asked.
"You foolish children, you don't realize what you've done do you?" She asked.
"Umm . . . obviously not," Matt said.
"This particular spell has been banned for years! You could go to Azkaban for this!" She panicked.
"But we didn't know!" Blaine protested.
"I realize that! We'll have to go to Dumbledore, he'll know what to do," Professor McGonagall said.
"That won't be necessary, I felt the power." The Headmaster said.
They all looked to Dumbledore who just came in through the portrait hole. His eyes weren't twinkling now. . .
"Miss Granger, this is by far the most irresponsible thing you've ever done," Dumbledore said in a stern voice.
"I . . . I didn't know!" Hermione protested.
"It wasn't her fault!" Jessica yelled.
"Miss Tamarrell, are you telling me that this was your idea?" Dumbledore looked at her.
"Yes, it was," Jessica bowed her head.
"Where did you get this idea from? A certain fanfiction. . . ?" Dumbledore implored.
"You read it too? Wasn't it miraculous?!" Jessica said excitedly.
"Jessica, tell me. Do you remember what happened to the two after they bonded?" Dumbledore asked.
"Ummm. . . Maybe. . ." Jessica said.
"Yet you still went through with this," Dumbledore stated.
"Headmaster, it was the only way! I know what happens, and I feel that we could stop it! Voldemort isn't getting any weaker Professor! I know what he's planning! I know everything! This is THE ONLY WAY!" Jessica screamed.
"Yes! We have to save Hogwarts!" Kate screamed.
"And how exactly do you know this information Miss Tamarell?" Professor McGonagall asked.
"If I were to tell you, it would skew the future, we wouldn't know what was coming. The fact that we are here changes factors that shouldn't have been changed. But since we're here and we know, then we can help. But we can only help at the last moment. I know things that would make your blood curl." Jessica snarled.
"With that bond, you've created the most dangerous weapon. Combine all your powers and you could destroy cities, countries, the world," Dumbledore said.
"I know," Jessica stated.
"You're going to have to just accept it Professor, You can't change it," Kate said.
"Professor we must tell the ministry!" Professor McGonagall protested.
"No, they're right. We must use them. They are our only hope. Remember Voldemort, Minerva. Remember." Dumbledore said to Professor McGonagall.
"WE WILL NOT BE YOUR TOOL!" Jessica yelled.
"You will not use us," Draco said.
"Miss Tamarell, I can't change what you did. You know what happens. You are one. You can feel each other. What do you think will happen if one of you falls in love? Did you think about that Jessica?" Dumbledore asked.
"Then we will let them enter our bond," Jessica said.
"You can't!" Professor McGonagall.
"I know it is possible Professor," Jessica said.
"You have made your decision; you will have to deal with the problems that come along. But as a weapon for the wizarding world against Voldemort I will provide you all with a dormitory of your own. There is no way that you could all stay apart and live for very long," Dumbledore concluded.
"We will destroy Voldemort," Kimberley said to his back.
Dumbledore turned around, his eyes twinkling once more.
"I'm sure you will," He said.
(OOOOOOOOOH! AHHHHH!!! *I'm freakin myself out! *)
------ The new dormitory.
"I hope you realize that this isn't a treat, it's a necessity," Professor McGonagall said in a stern voice.
"What ever," Kimberley said.
"I can't take points off your house, since you are probably the weapon that could save us all, but I can tell you that I am very, VERY disappointed." Professor McGonagall said.
"Ooh I'm trembling in fear." Draco laughed.
"But I can punish you," Professor threatened.
"Like what?" Ron asked afraid.
"I can do many things. But I AM going to have to remove you all from your houses. You are no longer Gryffindor nor are you Slytherin." Professor McGonagall said.
"What! What about the quidditch team!?" Harry protested.
"Hope that your friends are good flyers. You will have your own team, and your own house. But do realize that there is probably no way of winning the house cup with such few students. You can make up your own name. . . And I will assign Professor Moody for your Head of house for the year," Professor McGonagall said then she turned and left.
"You're kidding me," Jessica said.
"I've never been on a broom," Kimberley whined.
"Well I can't fly," Hermione said.
"Dammit! We were going to win this year too!" Harry yelled.
"This is ALL your fault," Hermione yelled at Jessica.
"What's more important, quidditch? Or saving the bloody world?!" Jessica asked them.
They just looked away.
"We start quidditch training tomorrow," Harry said.
"What about me?" Hermione asked.
"Even you." Harry concluded.
"Hey on the bright side we get to make up our own name!" Jessica said excitedly.
"Ooh! How bout the Matthew's!" Matt said.
"Ooh! How bout not!" Kate said.
"Oh please," Draco drawled.
"Lets be something cool," Jessica said.
"Well duh," Kimberley laughed.
"Well, the other houses are last names, sooo, we can't do that," Hermione said.
"They all have an animal, what's a cool animal?" Blaine asked.
"I liked snakes," Jessica and Draco pouted.
"Me too," Kimberley added.
"Ok so no animal," Matt concluded.
"Well. . . we're a weapon. That's what Dumbledore calls us," Jessica said.
"The weapon for wizards is a curse," Draco said.
"Oh come on! Guns are cooler. I bet if we aimed a gun at Voldemort, he'd die as quickly as any other person," Matt said.
"Swords!" Jessica said excitedly.
"Daggers!" Kate said.
"Nuclear bombs!" Blaine said.
"Nuclear bombs?" Jessica asked.
"Well you guys took all the cool ones," Blaine frowned.
"GUN BLADES!" Kim screamed.
"Umm. . . no," Jessica laughed.
"Oh please, half of the students wont know what the hell you're talking about." Hermione said.
"Now that you mention it, I'm a little lost," Ron said.
"A Nuclear bomb could kill all of the students in the school in a matter of seconds. It could take out half a city. There's no Ava Kedavra to it. It's a weapon of Mass Destruction." Jessica explained.
"Damn, So if we tried to take out all the muggles in the world, like Voldemort is doing. . . then it wouldn't matter, they could kill us in a matter of seconds," Draco said.
"Don't tell me that you actually are a deatheater" Jessica scowled.
"No, but my father is," Draco said.
"Flamethrowers are cool," Jessica laughed.
"Rocket launchers."
"I'm running out of weapons," Kimberley said.
"Can't we just decide?" Matt said.
( note from me: Sorry about this. . . I actually don't know what to name us. . . hence why it's taking me so long)
"Ok well I vote on swords," Jessica said.
"Me too!" They all agreed.
"or guns. . ." Jessica changed her mind.
They all groaned.
"Ok well how about this: The Guns of Heaven" Jessica concluded.
"Umm. can we be the: Guns of Hell?" Kimberley asked.
"Ooooh: The Guns of Satan" Matt said.
"Ok how 'bout: The Guns of Morningstar," Jessica finished.
"I like it," Blaine agreed.
"Who's Morningstar?" Harry, Ron and Hermione asked.
"Seriously. . . does no one read the bible?" Jessica asked.
"What are you talking about?" Hermione asked.
"Read Isaiah 14:12, it says this: Isaiah 14:12 "How you have fallen from heaven, O morningstar, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! Morningstar = Lucifer." Jessica explained.
"Wow. . . . do you read the bible?" Harry asked.
"No, but I did read a book called 'Archangel Protocol'
(Note from me: Excellent book by the way. Just amazing. And the other one! Helped me understand the whole Four Horsemen thing! A MUST read. And Fallen Host. REALLY COOL! Especially my favorite character: Morningstar.)
It explains the whole thing," Jessica explained.
"Yah, I knew you didn't read the bible," Kate said.
"Bah, so does everyone agree?" Jessica asked.
"We like, can we go to bed now?" They asked.
"Mais oui," Jessica said.
"Uhh. right," Said Kim, Harry, Ron, and Draco, who don't speak French.
They went up to their dormitories, which were just like the other ones, but all white. They would choose their colors later. On the other hand, they had a much better view from their windows. That's good right?
And so they slept.
--------
Next morning at breakfast
"Where are we supposed to sit?" Harry asked.
"I dunno Potter, I was thinking that EMPTY TABLE OVER THERE!" Draco drawled.
"No need for sarcasm Draco," Jessica said.
"Fine, well let's sit down," Ron said.
They sat down at the table and grabbed some toast.
"Whoah the hostility!" Matt said, looking around at the school as they glared at them.
"Well. . . we did take both the Gryffindor and Slytherin's Seekers," Jessica said.
"That's true, look Dumbledore's going to say something," Harry pointed out.
"Dear students, you will notice that there is a separate table for some students who made some very bad decisions. These decisions are irrevocable, and we have no choice but to accept them. I can not give details, but in the end, these few students could save the world as we know it. It has been decided that their Head of House will be Professor Moody for the year, and they have chosen their new house name. This new house will only be in place until they leave the Hogwarts school at the end of their twelfth year, unless circumstances prevent this. They have decided on the name, 'The Guns of Morninstar' and I have decided that their house colors should be black and white. Black for the poor decisions that they have made. And White for the hope that they will bring to the world. I hope you will not shun them, or hate them. They will have their own Quidditch team, and they will be living in their new dormitories. No information will be disclosed in case some students might follow in their footsteps." Dumbledore said solemnly then he left the hall.
Whispers echoed throughout the hall as the students stole glances at the new house.
"Guns of Morningstar? What kind of name is that?" Ron's brothers came over. Clearly upset that Ron and his friends should get all this special treatment.
"I don't know, some muggle thing," Ron said glumly.
"Oh Ron," Hermione sighed.
"Well, I hope that your quidditch team will do well," George smirked.
"Yah. . . I hope to," Draco and Harry sighed.
"Look the post is coming in!" Jessica said excitedly. She had only seen the owls come in once and she thought that it was fascinating.
"Harry, there's a letter for you," Hermione pointed out, even though Harry knew since the letter fell into his porridge.
"It's from Snuffles!" Harry said excitedly.
"Snuffles?" Kimberley asked.
"My. . . umm. ." Harry stammered, not knowing if he should tell his new friends.
'His godfather, an ex-convict, anigmus. . . dog," Jessica said in a sort of trance.
"What?! How did you know?" Ron asked.
"You forget, we're bonded Ron, I can willingly go into the bond and see what you are all thinking. I can see what you all know. I know what you feel, what you wish. I bet we could even send messages to each other telepathically." Jessica said.
"Oooh, this is going to be very useful in tests!" Kimberley said excitedly.
"Hey, you know the second book?!" Jessica asked her friends.
"I read that one!" Kimberley said.
"I saw the movie!" Matt said.
"You did not, don't lie Matt," Kate rolled her eyes as Matt pouted.
"Well, you know how Harry is a parseltongue?" Jessica asked.
"Yah," Kate answered as Blaine and Matt looked confused.
"Well! I bet that we could all speak parsel toungue!" Jessica said.
"Ooh! Like we could talk to snakes?! That's so cool!" Kimberley exclaimed.
"That also means that we might have to put up with scar pains like Potter," Draco said.
"We might have to put up with each other's pain. . ." Jessica said quietly.
"Well as long as no one gets hurt," Kimberley said cheerfully as Ron and Hermione groaned staring at Harry.
"On the other hand, I bet we could all speak French now," Jessica said.
"Bonjour," Ron said.
"Comment ca va?" Harry asked.
"Tu es un poisson," Kimberley laughed.
"Yah. . . Ok Kim. . ." Blaine said.
"Yah, but what does the letter say?" Kate said, trying to get everyone back on track.
"Yah Harry!" Hermione said excitedly.
Harry picked up the letter and glared at those who tried to read over his shoulder. Of course. . . little did her know that everyone reached into the bond and read it with Harry's eyes.
Harry -
I'm flying north immediately. This new about your scar is the latest in a series of strange rumors that have reached me here If it hurts again, go straight to Dumbledore - they're saying he's got Mad-Eye out of retirement, which means he's reading the signs, even if no one else is (Jessica snorted at this)
I'll be in touch soon. My best to Ron and Hermione. Keep you eyes open, Harry.
Sirius.
"What a load of crap," Jessica said.
"Whats crap?" Harry asked.
"Uhh nothing," Jessica said.
"This is bad, he's going to get into danger coming here. And wait a second. You all read the letter didn't you?" Harry asked.
They all looked away, though Draco snickered.
"Oh please, there have to be rules!" Harry protested.
They all attempted to look away farther, but only managed to hurt their necks.
"This isn't fair!" Harry said as the rest got up and quickly left the room.
"Hey! Is anyone listening?" Harry yelled towards their back.
---- -
Moody's class.
"Soooo Harry, it seems that I'll be the Head of your house," Moody said.
"Who says it's Harry's house?" Matt protested.
"Well I just assumed since Harry is. . ." Moody trailed off.
"Harry is what? The golden boy?" Draco sneered.
"It's not Harry's house, its all of our house. We're one now Professor," Jessica glared.
"Although Malfoy is making it difficult," Ron scowled.
"You're not much help either Ron," Kate said.
"Well, I suppose that whoever's house it is, that we will do quite well this year. Ok now onto the lesson. Today I will be putting the imperius curse on each of you to see how well you do, and if you can resist it." Moody explained.
"That's illegal!" Hermione protested.
"Dumbledore wants you to know," Moody said.
"Yah. . ." Jessica glared at Moody.
"Who wants to go first?" Moody asked.
Silence
"Ok then we'll just go in turns," Moody said.
The class watched as some of the students did amazing things. Some would be impossible if it weren't for the curse.
"Ok. Mr Potter," Moody said.
Harry stepped up like the rest of the class. 'Imperio' Moody yelled. Harry felt a sense of leaving his body. As he floated through the air, he heard Moody telling him to: Jump onto the desk.
Of course. The others (through their bond) thought that jumping onto the desk was ridiculous. They told Harry to: Pull down your pants Harry. Pull down your pants.
To tell you the truth. . . that's what Kim was saying. But the others went along thinking it was hilarious.
Harry who was still standing there, neither jumping nor pulling down his pants, blushed a deep pink.
"You want me to WHAT?!" Harry said turning to look at his new 'friends'.
The class watched in confusion as they all burst out laughing.
"Harry, do you realize that you just threw off the Imperius curse?" Moody asked.
"Yah." Harry said as he glared towards his friends.
"That's amazing! Potter through off the curse! First he beats Avada Kedavra, and now he beats the Imperius! It's absolutely amazing!" Moody jumped around on his wooden leg.
"Bah, we get no credit at all," Blaine grumbled.
"No of course not, I mean it's the Golden Boy," Draco snarled.
"To bad he didn't take his pants off though, that would've been a laugh," Jessica said.
"Poor Harry," Hermione sighed.
Moody went through the list of students, of course all of the Guns of Morningstar threw off the curse. They were all bonded so the other's helped out like they did for Harry.
"Amazing, nine students who can resist the curse. This is truly a reason to celebrate," Moody smiled as the students left the room.
"My god, that was pretty funny," Jessica laughed.
"Pull down your pants?! I can't believe you told me to do that!" Harry said indignantly.
"Oh suck it up," Matt said.
"Well. . . at least we won't have to worry about that curse," Kate smiled.
"Or that Kedavra thing," Kimberley grinned.
"How did you do that anyways Kim?" Jessica asked.
"I dunno, I just willed it to live I guess," Kim shrugged.
"You mean it was really dead?" Hermione gasped.
"Well yah," Kimberley said.
"I wonder how powerful we really are," Jessica said.
"Well for one thing, we can do magic without the use of a wand," Matt observed.
"We can bring back the dead," Kate said.
"We can throw off that stupid curse," Blaine added.
"Well the actual question is, are Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Draco, as strong as we are?" Jessica wondered.
"I don't know, we could always look through the bond," Kate said.
"Yah of course," Jessica said.
"Well we really need to get to class, we have transfiguration," Hermione pointed down the hall to the classroom.
"Cool, we've never had this class yet!" Jessica said.
"What's transfiguration?" Kimberley asked.
"That thing. . ." Blaine said.
"What thing?" Matt asked.
"I don't know!" Blaine yelled.
"Argh come on we're going to be late!" Draco snarled.
They rushed into the classroom and took their seats in the back of the class.
"Good day students. I understand it's your first class here?" Professor McGonagall lifted her eye brow towards the Guns of Morningstar (GoM) sitting in the back.
"Yes'm!" The smiled.
"Very well. Today we will be attempting to turn this dove into a fan. It shouldn't be hard if you managed to turn the hedgehog into a pincushion like Miss Granger did." The professor said as she passed out cages to the students.
Hermione blushed a deep shade of crimson and accepted her bird.
"Isn't this a waste of birds?" Jessica asked.
"Poor birdie," Kate said stroking her bird.
"If you want to fail this term, then yes it is a waste of birds. But I don't think you want to fail," McGonagall said sternly.
"Ok," Jessica shrugged.
"Ok you will have the rest of the class, try not to make a mess of things," McGonagall stared at her new students.
"That's unfair," Kimberley whined as McGonagall gave them a dirty look.
"I don't know how to do this! She didn't explain it," Jessica stared at the bird.
"Just . . . try and turn it into a fan," Hermione said.
"It might work easier for you Miss Tamarell, if you had a wand," Professor McGonagall said sarcastically.
"That's it," Jessica glared towards the teacher. Then she took the bird out and set it on her desk. The class watched in amusement as Jessica tried to turn the bird into a fan without using a wand. But after about five seconds of staring the bird suddenly turned into a white silky fan.
"HA!" Jessica laughed triumphantly.
"Oh! I see how you did it!" Kimberley said excitedly, as she looked at her bird and it turned into a fan.
The class watched in amazement as all of their birds suddenly changed into fans, one after another.
Harry, Hermione, and Draco obviously couldn't do this without using their wands, so they to watched in amazement. Soon the whole class was covered in multi-colored fans.
"Miss Tamarell, Miss Chang, Miss Endril, boys, I think that you have made your point," Professor McGonagall stared at them in amazement.
"I think we have," Jessica grinned.
In a matter of seconds all the fans, but their own, turned back into pearly white birds.
"I think we should give the other's a chance," Jessica laughed as the class and Hermione glared at them.
"Yes, I think they should get to work," Professor McGonagall turned around and watched as the students got back to turning their birds back into fans.
Jessica, Kate, Kim, Matt, and Blaine sat their chatting since they had already turned their birds into perfect fans.
-------- -
"Do you think that through the bond that we can learn how to do wandless magic?" Hermione asked, not liking that the other's had an advantage on her.
"Not sure," Jessica shrugged.
"It's cool," Kate said as she juggled fire in her hands.
"Kate . . . you're going to burn us," Draco drawled.
"What ever goes best!" Kate laughed.
"Well, I think that we should really get to potions then," Jessica sighed.
"Wonder why Snape doesn't like us anymore," Blaine sighed along with Jessica.
"Probably because of Kim," Matt laughed.
"Did you notice that we never went to that detention?" Kimberley looked nervous.
"I don't think I want to go to potions anymore," Matt said as he started to walk in the other direction.
"Oh don't be a wuss," Jessica rolled her eyes as she grabbed the back of Matt's shirt.
"At least we're not late," Kimberley smiled.
---------- - Potions class.
"Everyone give a nice round of applause for Mr. Potter, for breaking the rules, and being rewarded for it once again," Snape said sarcastically, then he growled at the students who actually started clapping. One being Kimberley.
"Oh Pipe down Professor," Jessica snarled.
"Miss Tamarell, I wont take you using that language with me," Snape snarled back, "and you Miss. Chang. I have no proof, but I'm most certain that you were the one who caused half of my hair to disappear. I'll be watching young lady. I'll be watching. . ." Snape said to Kim, who was crossing her eyes and making faces right to his face.
"Soooooo. . ." Blaine said looking at his watch.
"Just because you have your own house, doesn't mean that you have permission to be snarky to your professors." Snape said.
"Can we start the lesson now please?" Kate asked politely.
"Yes, we can." Snape snarled, "Today we will be making a potion called 'Vite' this potion will. . ."
"Make us go fast?" Jessica asked.
"Yes, it seems someone's been studying, Five points for GoM." Snape said oily.
The Calgarians sniggered because the name means 'fast' or 'quickly' in French.
"Ok, here is the list of ingredients, now go to work," Snape snarled.
Everyone got up and went pulled out their cauldrons.
"So, what ingredients do we need?" Jessica asked.
"Zest of Foxfruit, Dreamwood powder, Gatorade?" Hermione listed the rest of the ingredients, as the Calgarians looked into her bond to find what the ingredients looked like, then they just created them with their magic. Except for Gatorade, which Hermione didn't know what it was. Good thing they did though.
They had all their ingredients in big jars which sat on the table. They read the instructions out loud and as they read the instructions they used magic to do it for them.
"Mix the Foxfruit and Dreamwood powder into boiling water. Stir clockwise four times, and then add the Gatorade and stir twenty times counter clockwise." Jessica mumbled. Amazingly as she said it, the jar of Foxfruit lept up and poured out just the right measurement of Zest into the pot, the same with the Powder. A fire burst up around the cauldron and caused it to boil in three seconds flat. A spoon magically appeared out of thin air and stirred the four times. Then the Gatorade appeared and poured itself in. "Excellent," Jessica laughed, finished, as she watched the other Calgarians finish in the same manner.
Harry, Hermione, and Ron had another reason to glare, as they were still measuring their ingredients.
"What is this?" Snape snarled at her potion.
"The potion, der," Jessica rolled her eyes.
"Well then, let's see you drink it then," He smiled.
"Sure why not," Jessica shrugged. She then put a little into a cup and drank it.
The class watched nervously as her face started to turn a deep. . . .
Green
Note from me: Watch the movie Waydowntown. It's about Calgarians. Might get a better idea watching it. So yah!
