Chapter Nine
Once out on the other side, Jack set sail at once towards Isla de Muerta. There was a few things he wanted to pick up before going to England and joining the war. Harry used his magic to shield the two ships from satellites and planes, and Jack surrounded and covered them with thick fog. To keep people from discovering that the two crews would change into skeletons in moonlight, Harry was going to put up a strong Illusion Charm and keep it going until they had replaced all the cursed coins after taking care of Barbossa and his crew.
The time used to sail to the island, Harry spent with the Turner's explaining his world in fuller detail. Jacqueline was delighted, Elizabeth pleased that women could do whatever they wanted, and Will looked eager to get his hands on any history book available. Bootstrap shook his head and sorted through the information in his head as he followed the Pearl through the continuing fog.
They reached Isla de Muerta quickly due to Jack's control over Air, then Harry, Jack, Anamaria, Bootstrap and Will went into the cave and retrieved cursed medallions for both crews. There were two upsides to this. One was that even if Voldemort caught a Turner to break the curse, not all of the treasure would be there. The other was that no one could kill them.
"Now it's off te England." Jack said on the way back to the two ships. "We'll ride the fog there, like the time we got ye from yer aunt's, Harry."
Harry nodded. "Good idea, and it goes faster than normal sailin' even with yer 'elp Jack."
"With you two around you never know what might pop up next." Bootstrap mumbled.
..
Hermione sighed in defeat. Their camp was surrounded by Death Eaters who outnumbered the Phoenix Agents with three to one.
That wasn't the only bad thing that had happened. Of all the people to turn traitor, Ron was the last she expected. Still, it was true that the youngest Weasley male had gone over to the Dark Side. He was the one who had tipped Voldemort off about the fateful meeting between herself and Draco, which led to the Slytherin being exposed as a spy. The blond had barely escaped, but not before having his knee almost blown to smithereens. How he made it to the Headquarters was way beyond her, but he had made it in time to save some of the leg. They'd had to amputate the lower half, so now he sported a wooden leg like dear departed Mad-Eye Moody.
After Ron had gone over to the Dark Side, Draco had become the man in her life. He had been there when Ron had been ready to force her to come along with him, and had duelled with the red-head despite the injuries. In the end Ron had left with a wow to come back for revenge, and to her great surprise Draco had kissed her and left her hanging there in shock and suspense for three days before he approached her again. Manipulative Slytherin.
"Herm, watch out!" Draco forced her to the ground just as a spell flew overhead.
"Thank you Draco," she smiled gratefully to him.
"Think nothing of it, I'd worry more about the advancing Death Eaters!" the blond man hissed back and accepted her hand up.
"Oh my god!" Hermione whispered as she looked around. the Death Eaters were storming at them from every side and the Order Agents were getting ready to fight. Fight to death. She drew her wand along with Draco and squeezed his hand before getting into position.
Before either of the sides could exchange more than a few warm-up spells, a thick fog rose up then crashed down over them like a wave of grey. She got a glimpse of the shocked faces of some Death Eaters that hadn't bothered to wear their masks before the fog surrounded them, and knew that it wasn't their work. Draco grabbed her hand and she could barely see his figure standing no more than a feet away; the fog was unnaturally thick.
Then she heard it. The sound of ropes being tightened, wood creaking, sails flapping, all sounds she would associate with ships and the sea. A huge black shape passed her and Draco at that moment, and they felt themselves lifted up and up. On the way up they were dunked against the black thing and came in contact with wood.
"A ship!" Hermione whispered quietly.
Draco had grabbed a hold of her waist by then. "But for us or against us? Or is it a whole new enemy?"
At that moment strong arms grabbed them and hoisted them over the railing. The fog wasn't so thick onboard, but she still couldn't see anything else but shapes and shadows. One of said shadows was sitting right in front of them and was talking.
"Keep quiet, mates," the voice belonged to a male. The order was whispered in a heavy slurred accent. "We're currently pullin' aboard the rest o' the Phoenix Agents. Stay 'ere by the rail 'til someone comes to take ye under deck, and don't get into the way o' the crew, savvy?" the person disappeared into the fog leaving two bewildered people behind.
It didn't take long before another figure approached them and sat down on its feels before them. "'Ere ye go." A female voice said as the person handed them a warm blanket. "We've just gotten confirmation from the Stormeagle. They've picked up the rest o' ye Phoenixes, and we've set sail fer 'Ogwarts. We'll be there in a few 'ours. And the Capt'n'll lift the fog as soon as we sail o'er the grounds."
"Anamaria!" it was the same voice that had greeted Hermione and Draco when they had been pulled aboard.
The woman in front of them turned her head. "Yeah Jack?!"
"'Ave ye seen Green-Eyes anywhere?"
"Up in the crows nest last time I checked. Why, d'ye want 'im?"
"No, 'e's already where I want 'im. Why don't ye take those two to the galley and give 'em – and the others – somethin' te eat?"
"Again!?! Ye know I hate kitchen-duty! Why can't anyone else take o'er, like Green-Eyes?!"
"'Cause I need 'im up there doin' what 'e's best at. Now off with ye!"
The woman groaned then grabbed a hold of Hermione and Draco and pulled them up with her. "Follow me." She said and started to lead them to the galley. Once they arrived they could get a good look at her. She was dressed in full pirate gear, the galley was old-fashioned and other Phoenix Agents sat around the room looking highly perplexed.
The woman turned to them and got the attention of the whole room. "Right. Me name's Anamaria and I'm 'ere te welcome ye aboard the Black Pearl, finest ship o' the Caribbean. We've set sail fer 'Ogwarts and should be there in a few 'ours. Until then sit 'ere so that the crew doesn't 'ave te run around gatherin' ye all the time. Ye better settle in lads and lasses, and I'll whip up somethin' fer ye te eat."
Hermione and Draco sat down with their backs towards the wall and in clear sight of the door. Hermione leaned her tired head on Draco's shoulder, and he wrapped an arm around her. They had been under siege and had been fighting battles for a week before this happened, and had gotten very little sleep. Their intentions to keep an eye at the door didn't help much as both fell asleep in minutes.
..
"Hogwarts ho!" Harry yelled down with a smile breaking out on his face. Gods how he had missed the sight, sounds and feeling of old magic that emanated from the castle itself. He chuckled as he heard scrambling and cursing from deck. The fog that surrounded the two ships ended a few feet under the crows nest so that the lookout could be able to see and warn them about something that was in their way. No wonder the crew couldn't see anything, they could hardly see each other.
He sighed and relaxed as they sailed onto the grounds and towards the old castle itself. The front doors opened and out came dozens of wizards and witches led by Albus Dumbledore who was easily distinguished by his silver beard, and Hagrid because of his size. A red blur flew from the castle and towards them, and Harry grinned when he recognised Fawkes.
"'Ello te ye too!" He said and stroked the bird. Fawkes cooed and rubbed his head against Harry's palm before flying back to Dumbledore.
Harry grabbed a rope and swung down to the deck where he helped prepare to anchor the Pearl once they stopped. Jack was already using his control of Air to lift the Phoenixes off from both ships and set them on the ground outside the fog. There was much joyous laughter and shouts as the ones they had saved were greeted by the Hogwarts welcome committee.
The fog started to thin and in the end it disappeared and the wizards and witches could gaze upon the Black Pearl and the Stormeagle in their full greatness.
"Drop the anchor!" Jack ordered. It was quickly done and repeated at the Stormeagle.
Dumbledore had, along with Snape, McGonagall and some others, approached the Pearl and was looking up. "Um, excuse me Captain!" the old Headmaster said. He clearly wasn't sure what to make of this situation.
Jack jumped on the rail and grabbed a rope. "Aye?" he looked down at the old mage. "I assume yer Albus Dumbledore?"
"That's me, and who are you?"
"Captain Jack Sparrow." Jack replied and jumped down. "Nice te meet ye. Green-Eyes has told us much about ye and yer school."
"Green-Eyes?" Dumbledore inquired with a raised eyebrow.
"Aye, Green-Eyes." Jack looked up again. "'Ey, Ana!"
"What Jack?" the woman stuck her head over the rail. "What is it this time?"
"Get Green-Eyes, some people want te meet 'im!"
"Aye, comin' right up!" Anamaria grinned and a second later a young man came flying over the rail. "'Ere 'e comes!"
The young man landed on his rump and glared up at the woman. "I'm gonna kill ye once I get back onboard ye bloody cad!" The woman just grinned and disappeared. The young man groaned as he got up and massaged his backside. "Bloody woman. Well, Jack, whad'dya want?"
"Some people want te meet ye." Jack nodded towards the Headmaster and the others.
Harry turned and grinned when he heard the gasps coming from the wizards and witches. "'Ello mates. Good te be back 'ere at 'Ogwarts."
"A-Albus, i-is that...?" McGonagall whispered and blinked.
"It cant be!" Remus made his way over to the young man. "Is it...?"
Harry smirked and mock-bowed. "Who else did ye expect?" Albus blinked in shock and Harry rolled his eyes. "Do I 'ave te spell it out fer ye? 'Tis me! Harry Potter-Sparrow's back at 'Ogwarts!"
"But-but..." Flitwick mumbled and pointed at the two ships. "What... how... why... oh dear..."
"'Tis a rather long story," Jack spoke up. "Got the time te hear it?"
"Definitely!" Albus exclaimed and a grin broke out on his face. "Where should we talk, at Hogwarts or aboard your ship?"
Harry and Jack shared a look. "The ship." They said at the same time making the other people blink.
Hermione and Draco, along with numerous others who had known Harry in school, made their way to the front. Hermione stopped in front of Harry. Anamaria and Gibbs watched her approach from the Pearl.
"Hermione!" Harry grinned and threw his hand open expecting a hug but she slapped him. Hard. His head flew backwards, the beads and charms jingling. "I don't think I deserved that one." Harry mumbled causing Anamaria to smirk. He turned back towards the young woman only to be punched by Draco. "I may 'ave deserved that one."
"Yer takin' me infamous sentences, whelp!" Jack exclaimed and Anamaria and Gibbs started laughing. Harry blinked at them, looked at Jack, then started to laugh himself.
The large group of magical people exchanged looks and shrugged their shoulders. Pirates were weird.

There, that's done. I know the ending wasn't the best, but please tell me what you think and don't loose hope for Ron just yet.
Please check out my livejournal as I've posted something concerning my future fanfiction there, and it also will be decisive whether I write a sequel to 'Pirates and Wizards'.
