Author's note: To everyone, sorry for not updating! I went on holiday for a
while and after I came back, I got a pile of make-up work to do! I
sincerely apologize.
To all my reviewers, sorry I did not give you any thanks as I wrote all the chapters all at once and posted them one by one.
Thanks to: Huggiebear, Bloodredsword, JerseyGirl03, noraseyes, hermionegreen, wanderingwolf, Heaven's Reaper, linky2, Hongming, PBlegacy, potter-man1, OrionTheHunter, schmidie-lee83.
To avoid any confusion, this is not a slash story!

"Ray, Down Boy! He is a friend!"
Harry faintly heard Klementine shout in a distance. He was more interested in the bulk lying on top of his chest and was more then a bit dazed. He breathed a sigh of relief as the weight disappeared and was staring suddenly at Klementine's eyes.
"Are you all right kid?" Kaiser asked, concern.
"Yeah, I'm all right, a bit dizzy from the fall on my butt but all right." Harry replied.
"Sorry about that. Ray here is a leshire. You'll learn about them in your creatures' class. As you just witnessed, he's a bit protective of me sometimes but he's really friendly once he get that you are not a threat."
Harry looked at the pure white looking wolf that was whining at him and laughed, "It's okay, I don't think he meant any harm."
Kaiser nodded and said, "Come on, we need to get to your room."
Harry stood up, dusted himself off, and followed him into the maze of rooms. They stopped in front of a wooden door and Kaiser opened it. It was a plain room, with a simple bed, a desk, a wardrobe, a drawer, a chair and a bathroom.
Kaiser looked at him apologetically, "I'm sorry, I could give you something better but beginners aren't supposed to get anything too fancy."
Harry shrugged it off and said, "It's okay, I don't mind. Really." Harry went in and sat on the bed, "So what do I do now?"
"Now you take a bath and dress. There's the standard clothing for beginners in the wardrobe. I warned you first, its pretty ugly but as you grow in ranks, your living, dressing and eating standards will improve. Then you eat. There will be some food on your desk after you finished your bath. After that, you go to sleep, you may want to get up to have an early start for your lessons tomorrow."
Harry nodded once to show that he understood and Kaiser left. He went into the bathroom and took a nice hot shower. There was no bathtub. He guessed that it's only for those of higher ranks. He hoped so. Not that a shower wasn't welcome, it's just that a nice soaking would be nice after a gruesome training session and he had a nasty feeling that there's going to be lots of those.
He dried himself and opened the wardrobe to check out his new clothes. His jawed dropped. Klementine wasn't joking. They were ugly. The shirt was ripped in lots of parts and was mended poorly. The color was faded to a dull gray. It even had the stains of blood on it including a nasty scent. Harry wrinkled his noise in distaste. At least the Dursleys washed what they gave him. These don't seem to have gone near any water for three months. He didn't even want to think about the pants.
He put his clothes on quickly, making sure to pinch his nose. He looked around for his dinner. It was in a tray on top of his desk. He inspected it carefully. After looking at the state of his clothes, he didn't want any stomachaches because a bug was in his food. After feeling satisfied about the cleanliness of his meal, he dug in, suddenly ravenous.
Finishing his dinner, Harry let out huge yawn, just realizing how tired he was. He got into the bed and within minutes, was fast asleep.
~*~*~
The next morning, Harry woke up refreshed. He took a shower and was faced with those ridiculous attire again. 'What's the use of taking a shower when you're going to get dirty because of your clothes!' He thought furiously as he dressed.
When he stepped outside, he suddenly realized he didn't know where to go. Luckily, flashing arrows on the floor led him to the dining room where Kaiser was drinking a cup of coffee and reading a book.
"Good morning!" He greeted.
Harry just glared murderously back at him. Klementine said, "You do know that I'm sorry that you had to wear those clothes right?"
Harry sighed and said, "I know. It's the rules." He grabbed a bit of toast and sat down.
After finishing his breakfast, he asked Kaiser what are they going to do today.
Kaiser closed his book and answered, "Well, we are not going to do anything. You are. Before we go into the real training, you have to learn the basics first as well as what your strong point is so we can focus on that. We already know that your magical focus are the elements but you also need to know what your physical focus is which is what weapon will suit you best. You also need to have an idea of what creatures and plants are on Bermuda so you don't get poisoning or angered a dangerous beast and trust me, we have a lot of dangerous beasts here starting with the dragons. Also, you need a map of the planes so you don't get lost.
After you finished the courses and started full time training with me, you will get your own dragon instead of using Eminor each time. You will bond with your dragon.
And last but not least, remember what I said about fights being a common occurrence?" Harry nodded. "Well don't anger anyone, especially not the teachers. Even though you are new and cannot be hurt, if you insult someone on purpose, they have every right to harm you. If that happens, you could lucky that you are in the school and not on the grounds, as you can't get killed in the school."
Harry nodded, knowing that with that tone of seriousness in one's voice, it was most definitely the truth.
Klementine then gave him a necklace, saying that it will take him wherever he wanted to go. It was a temporary thing before he got his dragon.
"Oh and another thing, when you say your name, remember that you are not Harry Potter but Harry Klementine. I would advise you about changing your first name because if people don't know you, it would give you an advantage over them. Here's your schedule by the way."
Harry took the piece of paper and scanned over it quickly.
"Harry," He looked at Kaiser, "I don't know what you may call this but you can say that I want you to 'suck up' to your teachers. Not necessary worshipping the ground they walked on but try and get on their good side. Don't forget that this is not your school anymore and a bit of favoritism might help you a lot.
Also, DON"T EVER slack off or daydream in class. That will earn you a place on the bad list. Also remember, I don't mean you can't have friends but never trust someone fully especially not a stranger here. Don't even think about defending someone that is being caught in a fight. When you're stronger maybe but now all you'll get is a ton of injuries."
Harry considered Kaiser's words carefully, knowing painfully that someone may befriend him under false pretense to use him. He knows that his Grffindor side might cost him his life and that his Slytherin side could save him.
He touched his necklace and willed himself to be on the school plane. Just before the wind whisked him away, Klementine yelled, "Never forget that when you face a dragon, always go for the eyes or the soles of its feet as the rest of his body is covered with scales and you can never pierce it with a sword."
Harry panicked. 'He will not be fighting a dragon with a sword on his first day would he? From what he knows so far, it seemed quite possible and Kaiser certainly seemed to be saying that!'
