Harry Potter the Founders Heir
CHAPTER FOUR-
Strange Happening at Hogwarts
The pain Harry experienced probably lasted for about an hour and by that time he seemed to have gotten used it although he never took his eyes of Dumbledore who sat in a comfortable chair on the side of his office just watching as Harry's body twitched and his bones seemingly moaned in protest. Harry didn't know what was going on, he didn't think Dumbledore was causing it but why did he do nothing to stop it or ease the pain. His face was emotionless and his eyes told no story or sparkled as they usually did.
When the pain finally abated Harry passed out into a world of darkness.
Harry regained consciousness later not knowing how long he had been out, when he looked around at his surroundings he saw that he was no longer in the headmasters opulent office but in the stark white hospital wing which seemed to be arranged differently to the way he'd last seen it. He looked around the room to see four unfamiliar faces staring down at him, although he could have sworn he'd seen them all before. They were so familiar and he'd felt like he'd met them before but knew that he never had.
The first face was that of a woman, she had a kind and rosy face, her skin was splattered with freckles, and she looked quite rotund and reminded him of his friends mother Molly Weasley. The next face was also a woman it was stern with premature wrinkles around the eyes but beautiful. The third person was a man with golden blonde hair and clear blue eyes, much like Harry's own and looked like he had just had a rather large shock and stared into his eyes as though they held the secrets of the universe and then there was the forth person was also a man with black hair that almost shone blue and a look of suspicion on his face, most strangely though was his eyes which were almost identical to Harry's.
For five minutes they stood looking at Harry as Harry looked at them trying to figure out were he was and why these people were so familiar to him. He did realise something though during this time of silence, this was not the hospital wing he had visited so many times in the last couple of years though it came close, there was something different about it. Harry was the first to speak introducing himself as he had grown tired of the silence in the room and the tension that you could cut with a knife and as his curiosity, alas suspicion was driving him insane.
'My name is Harry Potter' he spoke bravely 'where am I and who are you?' he asked more loudly but with more suspicion after no one responded thinking that even though they didn't appear to be they could be working for Voldermort.
The first of the four to respond was the stern looking woman who spoke calmly and soothingly, like she had done it many times before 'we are the four founders of Hogwarts school for witches and wizards and you are our heir, you are in Hogwarts as we remember it at the time we were most happy.'
Harry was stunned by this response but had a thousand questions to ask, the most important he voice straight away asking 'why am I here' and adding an almost whispered addition of 'am I dead'
The blue eyed man, who Harry had already deduced to be Godric Gryffindor after finding that they were founders, was the one to respond first stating simply 'you are not dead', this relieved Harry greatly but he pushed his first question harder repeating-
'Why am I here?'
Godric responded (as he will for the rest of the conversation). 'Before we died we set up a way we could communicate with the heir of the four of us if any were to be born... and that would of course be you...'
'What' exclaimed Harry stunned 'how can that be, my mother was muggleborn?'
'No she wasn't' answered Slytherin 'she can from a long line of squibs carrying my blood and no she is not a direct descendent of Voldermort (Slytherin gave a tight shudder) there families had separated generations before'
Harry was stunned again by this unexpected response, exclaiming 'so my father is heir to Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff!'
Harry felt an urge to question Slytherin about his allegiance, although he doubted it leaded towards the dark and it was explained that Slytherin had in fact never been evil and although he and Godric did not see eye to eye on many things. These things included accepting muggleborns (not for inferiority of blood but the danger of persecution to both them and the school) they never hated each other and Slytherin never left the school and it was in fact one of the earlier Slytherin students which did so. They also spoke of the basilisk and Salazar (as Harry soon felt comfortable calling him) explained that he was a friend he had found underground and promised he would be allowed to stay there as long as the school was open and one of his heirs was there to protect it- it promised to follow whatever the heir told it which was what caused problems in the end. Slytherin was disgusted at the stigma that has been placed on his once up standing name but excepted it as well as a still extremely proud man could.
When Harry and Salazar finished talking, he and the other heirs explained what it entailed to be an heir, why it was found necessary to communicate with him and why had they called him to them now. Rowena explained that the pull back was designed to happen the first time he was on Hogwarts grounds after his 16th birthday and 'alarm' would be triggered in the castle which would pull him, somewhat painfully, into the founders plain of existence. Harry understood that and waited for the next question to be answered- why it was found necessary that he should communicate with the founders before receiving his powers. The response was that Harry's powers would be so vast and if they were to awake when he was unsupervised by one of the founders at least, that the powers could kill him leaving no hope for the side of the light in defeating the most powerful dark lord ever seen. This scared Harry somewhat, knowing that his own powers had the power to kill him.
The answer Harry was probably most looking forward to was hearing what his powers where and he could barley hold his excitement as Godric recited the rather long list in a monotone voice. Maybe now with al these powers he would be able to defeat Voldermort and save the world.
Godrics list (which he read of a piece of paper the ever prepared Rowena had handed him) was as follows; mindspeak, the ability to telepathically speak with all living things, including humans and animals (a power of both Godric and Helga). Empathetic- pick up the emotions of the people around him (Helga). He would have the ability to teleport which is an advanced form of apparition with no restrictions (Rowena and Salazar), and a super absorbent mind so he has the ability to memorise and absorb information from books without even reading them and other such kinds of uses (Rowena). He also has the ability to hover which all founders have the gift to do and the skill of walking through walls (Slytherin), he is also a seer and will have visions of the future and he is finally able to see others magical aura's and sense the powers they possess and free anyone of any magical curse they may be under and there would probably be others they'd figure out along the way.
Harry's mind boggled at the idea of having all these powers and thought of ways he could use them to help those around him and he wrote a 'to do' list in his head of what to do when he returned home and there was one he knew he'd have to do straight away.
Been the Hogwarts heir also meant that besides power he would be able to take control of the school (as it belonged to him) and there was also a large amount of vaults and estates under his name that he received unknown on his 16th birthday. Harry didn't really care about the money but knew what he would donate a lot of it to.
