Letters, Werewolves, and Vampires Oh my!
Harry's POV
Harry sighed wearily as he stared at the chained books on the wall of the restricted section of the library. He had told Madam Prince that he was looking for things for teaching his class, while in reality, he was looking for books on dark spirits and...........
He sighed again now more in frustration than anything else. The spirit had told him to find the ............ something of the.......... Something magic born........ His memory had started to fade a few moments after he had awoken.
Grabbing a few books that looked interesting, Harry muttered his thanks to Madam Prince and was out of the library before she got a good look. He smiled slightly, teacher's perk number two; being able to get books out of the restricted section without a note.
The teacher's perk number one, was of course, not having to do any homework for the class. Or maybe it was being able to give Slytherins detention.......
He beamed reminiscently, he had given Malfoy and his cronies the great detentions of polishing the trophies in the trophy room, cleaning out the bedpans in the hospital wing, and only after they were forced to clean up Trelawney's room did they stop starting fights in his class. Darn, right when he was planning to have them walk Fluffy............
"Professor Potter!"
Harry winced, many of the students insisted on calling him professor. Wither or not it was respect or just to annoy him, Harry didn't know.
After assuring a near- hysterical second year that he wasn't testing them on the stunning spell for another week, Harry went to the DADA room to meet Ron and Hermione.
Once there, he found them reading a letter from the order, informing them of a meeting of a few vampire coven leaders. For once Ron wasn't annoyed of just being informed of the orders intentions without taking a part in them.
"Vampires and wizards just don't get along. Vampires don't like wizards because we don't let them hunt humans anymore. There are constantly vampires trying to get the ministry to go back to the old ways, Dad used to tell me..........."
Hermione was, surprisingly, hesitant to go into her 'promote unification among all species' speech after reading many books on vampire uprisings.
"But," she said finally, "It is good that we have as many allies on our side as we can."
Harry nodded remembering the vast army Voldemort had and returned to the letter, "It also says that Moony's going to be talking to the leaders of the werewolf packs, and seeing who is interested in joining our side."
Hermione read the last part of the letter for herself, over Harry's shoulder before saying thoughtfully, "At this rate we'll have vampires and werewolves all over the school if they end up coming here."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Remus' POV
Remus looked on as the leaders of the existing werewolf packs arrived. 'It's hard to believe there are so many' Remus mused to himself as the number grew. Though he had asked mainly for the leaders, the news of nuncamy attacks and just for the wariness of being with different packs had caused each leader to bring a handful of others with them.
He tensed suddenly as a feeling of numb disbelief rose in him. 'It couldn't be him....... Of all the people..........."
"Ah, Remus. It has been a long time."
Remus looked up into the amber eyes, that nearly mirrored his own, yet had haunted his nightmares since he was a child. Memories of those eyes turning yellow............. Teeth......... pain............
Remus looked into the eyes of the werewolf who had given him his curse.
"Ashon."
He hadn't changed much. His midnight black hair was now a steely gray, but he was still tall, and those eyes still seemed to stare at your very soul..............
"I haven't heard anything about you for years. Only the occasionally curse from some of the self-acclaimed dark lord's 'dogs'. So what HAVE you been up to? Are you one of those who called us here?"
Remus grit his teeth and forced out words in his usual calm voice, "I don't run with large packs, you know that."
"Yes," Ashon sighed, "Pity really. As far as strength and magical power your well up on the line."
It was true. But after having his sobbing parents wrap his wounds every full moon for the constant fights he got in with his first pack, he had chosen to become a loner and was remembered only by name from his old pack members.
Yet another reason he had been afraid for the marauders to become animagi. Moony insisted on fighting for dominance, but thankfully he had allowed wizard animals to become part of his pack. Moony had accepted Kenani much the same way.
Forcing himself into the present, Remus answered Ashon's second question, "And yes, I am one of the people trying to bring the packs together. Though, I didn't expect to see you..........."
Ashon snorted, "Yes well, I usually prefer to keep out of these things, but those 'things' that have allied with this dark lord are disgracing werewolves." He looked at Remus closely, "Of all the people to defy him, Remus, you'd be the last I'd think of. You never were one to take pride in your gift.............."
"You know my thoughts on my 'gift'." Remus spat out, and then controlling himself said, "I have my reasons for fighting against Voldemort."
"Would one of these reasons involve a Mr. Harry Potter? Savior of the wizarding world and from what I've heard, your so-called 'pup' now that you're the boy's guardian?"
Ashon might be his nightmare, but that didn't mean Remus would let him drag Harry into this.
Remus glared at him and allowed his temper, which he had been restraining, break loose creating an aura around him, "Yes, Harry's father and godfather were part of my pack before they died. My reasons for refusing to join, and I have been asked, are my own. But you will not bring Harry; my cub, pup, godson, whatever name you give him, into this. Stay away from him or I will show you how much I do remember the old fighting ways of the pack."
Ashon smirked and raised his hands in mock defeat, "As you wish Remus. I look forward to listening to you speak to the leaders of your views."
Remus watched as he walked away with a sinking feeling in his stomach. If Ashon did go to Hogwarts to speak with Dumbledore, he would search Harry out. It was in his nature to do so. Even Kenani wouldn't be safe around him.
Remus sighed inwardly wondering what Harry would say if, or more like when, he found out he had already made a name for himself among werewolves.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Voldemort's POV
Voldemort strummed his long fingers on the arm of the chair, watching as wormtail blithered about setting up for a spell that was obviously way out of his capability to complete.
Red eyes glanced toward the dark orb glowing in the far corner. Slytherin's spirit was not yet strong enough to remain in its ghost-like form for long. A thin-lipped smile curved on to Voldemort's face, but once the boy's blood was spilt........... a physical form could be obtained.
Then, they could take whatever was left of the brat and force him to use the shard to reincarnate Slytherin's power.......... And lord Voldemort would take it all and become the most powerful being on earth. And that mudblood loving old fool could watch as his precious golden-boy dies.
A black owl flew down to perch beside him, a report tied to its leg. Unrolling it, Voldemort eyes narrowed as he discovered the werewolves were gathering. Lupin would be attempting to gain allies for the light.
He clenched the letter in his fist. It was a pity the nuncamys hadn't finished him off. He was becoming a constant nuisance like Potter. He relaxed back into the chair, what did it matter? Let Lupin try to ally the werewolves. There would always be one willing for power. Perhaps should the nuncamys fail to deliver the boy, as the idiot Dumbledore's order was no doubt training him somehow, perhaps a willing werewolf would find a way to bring him.
Either way, the boy's end was fast approaching.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Dumbledore's POV
Dumbledore held back a wince. There was a thick veil of magic and death that surrounded the vampire coven leaders.
Of all the magical creatures Dumbledore had contact with, vampires were one of the smallest. As he had once told Harry how he had gotten Fawkes (A/N in chapter 11 of Phoenix Tears) only in his auror days did he encounter vampires often, and in most cases they had been a rather unpleasant.
But since then he had gained a few ounces of respect for arguing constantly with the ministry on extreme courses of action against them, namely giving their aurors permission to kill.
Dumbledore inwardly sighed hoping he could convince one of Tom's most dangerous possible allies to join the light...............
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A/N ok a few things here................ Ashon's name means seventh son and according to old werewolf legends which I looked up, the seventh son of the family was said to be born a werewolf if he had nothing but brothers before his birth. Weird huh? Ummm.... Vampires. Any comments on them? Review please!
Thanks to~
ILOVETOWRITE456- glad you like my story so much! Now if I told you what would happen what would the point of posting be? Besides, don't you just LOVE cliffys! *evil grin*
Mrs. Sniffy- it's a good idea to keep an eye on snape. Lol I added the detention part after I read your review! Maybe I should make him walk Fluffy!
David305- whoops! Thanks I'll have to change it when I get a chance to! Anyway that whole thing was just Harry generalizing it for ron. Mental stuff was my idea of what ron would call mental blocking.
Scarysecrets- lol whoo withdrawl! Oh no!!! lol I seem to be into orbs don't I? Thanks! Lol I agree with that! Harry and Dumbledore connection. I'm in the thinking mode that Lilly and Petunia were related but adopted by muggles or somthin' and Dumbledore is related to Lilly some how, but I dunno. Can't wait for book 6 I need more things to go on here!! Lol still on about percy eh? Thanks! Lol I'm getting too many ideas! I was up really late writing and then when I put it on the computer I get distracted and only type up part of what I was going to get into. So I always end up writing parts of chappies at different times! I dunno about relationships I don't think I could write them very well. Lol well I don't know where to send him I'll let Harry decide!
Dracozchick- thanks! Lol you love that don't you!!
Kemenran- more comin'!
PhoenixPadfoot89- thanks! Hummmm you'll have to wait and see!
Nefertiri Riddle- lol no matter how fast I update y'all keep askin' for more!
Athenakitty- no he's Dumbledore he's heard about it from somewhere........ yep!
TuxedoMac- yeah was this one normal? I can't tell. One of the other reviewers has asked for more cliffys so you can expect more cliffy fun ahead!
Nicoletta- hummm that's true...... think I should evolve more centaurs? Yeah Dumbledore has his reasons which sorta makes sense. Hehehe you'll see what the pendant is for later.............
