Chapter 16
After they had woken up Draco and Hermione. Ginny helped Hermione to the bathroom, and Draco, Harry, Ron, Dumbledore, and Snape tried to relax. Draco shook his head. "I need to get away for a bit. "Potter, you and Weasley want to head to Hogmeade? I saw a book there I wanted to get for Hermione. She is going to need all the help she can get with this. It will give Dumbledore and Snape time to work with Hermione on hiding her wings and being able to work around them." Ron and Harry looked at each other, a little surprised that Draco Malfoy would be inviting them somewhere. "Sure, Malfoy." Harry said before Ron could jump in. "Hermione's going to need us to get along well, so we might has well start now, right?" "Exactly." The boys flooed to Hogmeade, and Snape chuckled. "If Ms. Granger can make two enemies become friends, maybe there is hope for this school, Albus."
"There has always been hope, it's just showing its self a little better."
About an hour later, after Hermione's bath and learning to fold her wings completely into her back, where as when she went to the bathroom, she went through the door awkwardly. "IT hurts to have them like that." She said.
Dumbledore smiled. "It will for a while. You wings are muscles that have just been released from an eighteen-year contraction. They will be sore for a while. But what Professor Snape gave you will help to ease your pain."
The boys flooed in at that moment, laughing at each other. The stopped when they saw Hermione, sitting on the floor while Ginny gently separated each feather to help it dry, just as Dumbledore had shown her. The gold wings made her eyes stand out...they were not brown any more... they too had turned gold.
"Wow, Mia." Harry said.
"You mean, you don't see me as a freak?"
Harry sighed, looking to Ginny. Ginny shrugged. "She's been like that since she woke up." Ginny said as she kept working.
Ron went straight to Hermione, dropping a bag on the floor and kneeling down in front of her. "You aren't a Freak. You are a gorgeous woman, and you know that."
"Ron, I have wings! HUGE WINGS! I am not normal!"
"Who is to say what is normal?" Draco said, and pulled out a book from the bag Ron had dropped. "We, Potter, Weasley and I, bought a couple books on the EzilWis/EzilJast. I thought you might want to read them, to get an idea." Draco handed her the book. "It's called 'the many forms of Man.' Harry found it."
"Thank you. What else did you get?"
"Lots of Chocolate frogs, from Ron, and an other book on the many forms a flight, by the same person as the first one. I found that one. It tells you how Ezil Wis fly."
She looked at the other book and the chocolate frogs. "Thank you, so much. I am glad I have you all to help me get through this."
Ginny smiled, finally finished. "Draco, why don't you read the book that tells us what exactly the Ezil Wis are, out loud?"
Draco nodded, and Hermione handed him the book. Hermione then closed her eyes, making her wings fold into her back, and leaned against Ginny. Ron Turned around and lean on Hermione's legs, and Harry sat beside Ginny, wrapping his arm around her. Draco sat in front of them, and Began reading.
"Chapter 99: The Ezil Wis and the Ezil Jast
These are a rare race of humans who grow wings before their 18th year. The wings vary in color, and are as large as 14 feet. Most only have 5 foot wing spans, large enough to carry themselves. If their wings are not released in a ceremony (which we will cover a bit late on in this chapter) before they are 18, then their wings do not form at all. Their wings can be released as early as their 16th birthday.
Companions- protectors of the Ezil Wis / Ezil Jast. Always of the opposite gender and always a wizard-witch. They usually end up as a couple or loves, but this is not always the case."
An audible sigh came from Ron, making Hermione smile. Her suspicions had been true. Ron liked her like that.
"Aleva- an organization of the Ezil Wis / Ezil Jast including many wizarding families. The original purpose was to aid the muggles in healing and intellectual growth.
Aleva Cri. Leader of the Aleva. Cri means mother. The current Cri is power hungry and dislikes the mixing of wizard and Ezil Wis/ Ezil Jast.
Aleva-Reia- heir to the Cri runs many of the wizarding world portions of the Aleva. She is the ambassador to the Ministry of Magic. The current one is known for a controlled temper and a very powerful right hook."
Hermione giggled at this, but then remembered. Serenity was not the same sister she had once known. She was the Aleva-Reia.
"Ceremony- when it is proven a child is Ezil Wis / Ezil Jast, they are given a ceremony to make their wings show through. Each newly formed one is given a wizard/witch to aid them in protection, and a guardian, either an older winged one or an older witch/wizard, to help teach them to be what they must, pertaining to then Orcale of the ZaEzilBrenac.
The Oracle ZaEzilBrenac- the name means the 'Golden cloud virgin" after the first Ezil Wis to be known to the world. Every child born to any one in the Aleva is taken to her, and she proclaims what one of the paths of the child might be.
The Oracle of the Zabreneva (Golden Dawn fire)- this is very interesting, as this is the prophecy that was given with out the child being there. She was called the Zabreneva, the child that is, and has never been named. They say only the Cri and the Aleva know who she is. The oracle states as following:
One morning, the Cri shall fear, the golden child sent from here. A sister sought, a sister lost, Aleva Reia pays any cost. Trained by those cast aside and the great Guardian who never dies.
This golden child shall rise, not fall, and show our world the love of all. The Cri shall try to take her mind, and the only one who can keep her fine?
The little boy of icy eyes, who knows his way to touch the skies. The Aleva-Reia rescued him from his father's deadly torture den. In his heart, he shall see what the golden child must choose to be.
The Aleva-Reia shall stay the same, and become a Cri much more sane."
Draco looked up. "That's it. That's all the chapter has." Ron turned to see Hermione blink her eyes. "Thank you Draco, for reading this. And thank all of you, for everything today." Harry smiled as Ginny spoke. "We could never let you face something like this alone. And no matter what any one says, you are normal, just more special than any one imagined." Ron Ginny and Harry got up, along with Hermione, and Ginny started to help her up stairs, saying Hermione should change into normal clothes and relax. Ginny shooed the boys to go get dinner for every one, and informed them that Dumbledore was going to allow Harry, Ron, and her stay the night in the heads room.
A/N I hope this helps in the confusion... please ask me questions if you still don't get it... but I tried to explain it more with out giving away the whole story...
