Disclaimer - I own nothing Harry potter wise apart from the Trent characters
Sunlight drifted across Harry's face awaking him from a deep peaceful sleep, the voice lingering in the back of his mind. All of the sudden the voice changed into someone else's that was achingly familiar.
The song was still the same but the voice, for a moment he thought before it came to him
" Mom "
His mum had sung that very same song to him, when he was little, he was almost certain of it.
(The Next Bit is in my characters POV)
The sun was just rising over the trees tops but Holly Trent had been up for hours, to an outsider Holly Trent would have seemed like any normal teenage girl. She had long dark Black hair with violet highlights, dark blue eyes and pale skin, But Holly Trent was no ordinary teenage girl she was a witch. She was a student at Crystal Wood Academy, a school for wandless witches
Her parents were on a job for the order, which Holly wasn't allowed to know about. Even though she begged and pleaded for them to tell her. So like any normal teenager was taken full advantage of this, the radio was cranked up to blaring and Holly was currently busy stirring a potion. Every member of the Trent family was blessed with an unusual amount of talent when he came to potion making. She did a few dance steps, adding a few more ingredients as she went, she had made this potion so many times before she could make it in her sleep. Mutli-coloured bubbles began to rise and float to the ceiling. Pausing for a second she watched the bubbles and smiled.
Suddenly the hairs on the back of her neck began to rise, and a feeling of apprehension over. She shook it off as paranoia, everyone was on edge since the news that " you-know-who" had returned
She nearly didn't hear the door over the music, but expecting it to be one of her friends coming over to visit her flung hurried down the stairs and flung open the door. Seconds later she wished she hadn't, as she discovered death eaters standing on her doorstep. Moving faster than she even though possible she slammed the door in their faces and dived into the lounge. The door blew off its hinges, sending wood splinters everywhere.
Darrein Holly's pet owl, so was sound asleep on his perch, flew off his perch squawking and adding feathers to the mess. He then soared into the fireplace and up the chimney his feathers getting singed as a spell flew past him, just grazing him. From her position on the floor Holly watched as the death eaters came closer. Even though she was afraid a survival instinct took over. In her head she could hear her defence of the dark arts teacher voice
" In battle the most important thing is the element of surpriseā¦. "
Holly decided to play the helpless defence girl, to get that advantage
" I too scared you see " she thought knowing they couldn't here her " I'm just a poor defenceless girl "
At the same time she concentrated on bringing energy to her hand.
One of the death eaters let out an evil chuckle and pointed his wand directly at her. They were taunting her trying to draw the moment out, instead of just plain killing her. She flung the ball at the death eater and heard him scream as the ball melted the mask into his face. Her brain seemed to be working at a million miles an hour, giving her directions and shouting at her to move. Spells flew past her blowing huge holes in the walls as she ducked and dived behind the furniture. Spells and curses rolled off her tongue barely even thinking about them, she returned fire whenever she could, but they were slowly gaining the advantage.
Silently cursing her parents for making her move her potion supplies to the attic, she realised desperate measures were needed. It broke a few rules and laws but at this stage she would welcome the ministry of magic with open arms. Speaking of which, where were those stupid auroras weren't they suppose to be tracking things like this, if she ever got out of this she was going to write a strongly worded letter of complaint
" Come out, come out wherever you are " a voice taunted
Whispering words and making hand gestures as fast as possible she could, she felt the beginnings of the spell. The house shook in its foundations. Four roars were heard, followed by a scream. Holly peered out of her hiding place to watch her four element monsters begin to attack the death eaters. Using the elements in this way, went against everything she believed in. She had been brought up to respect nature and everyone knew the stories of when nature turned against the witch using them for their own purposes. It was a trickly spell to begin and not many witches tried to do it, but Holly knew she was outnumbered and help didn't see to be on the way
The one of made of earth buried one death eater up to his neck. The one made of wind had two caught up hovering in mid air. The ones made of fire and water had the rest surrounded surrounding them in a bubble of water and one of fire. The death eaters were fighting back to little success, trying a number of spells that Holly hadn't heard before. Until one yelled retreat and they all vanished at once.
" That's right " Holly yelled bouncing out from her hiding place " Run away you cowards "
"Umm Holly, taunting the death eaters is probably not a good idea" a little voice said in her head. Her monsters crumbled slowly into dust. Holly was surveying the mess with her hands on her hips. Her parents were going to freak when they saw this. She turned a fireball already in her hand when she heard the appreantion crack to find aurors pouring into her wreaked living room, They glanced at her then at the fireball. Smiling sheepishly she extinguished it
" Now the Calvary arrives " she said and as they watched she breezed past them " Now if you'll excuse me I have a potion on the stove"
