Chapter Six - Training: Part One
Hogwarts, Hospital Wing
Harry slowly began to wake up. He opened his eyes and immediately noticed some differences. He could see, without his glasses and he could hear everything in the room and outside of it. He slowly got out of bed and made his way to the bathroom on the side of his room. Standing in front of the mirror he wondered if he was seeing things. He was much taller then he had been, 'Well, no one can call me a midget anymore,' thought Harry. He studied his face and smiled a little. It was straighter, less boyish and his eyes stood out much more now that he didn't need his glasses. His ears were now pointed and his hair was shoulder length. He moved down and grinned. His shoulders seemed to be twice as wide as before and he seemed to be much stronger. All in all, he liked how he looked. He finished in the bathroom and stepped out into the room. On the bed was a pair of sweat pants, a white t-shirt and a pair of shoes.
After getting dressed, he left the room and stepped into the main wing. The founders and Ryle were standing there, "Hello, Harry," said Salazar, "I saw your snake, he's exploring the dungeons right now. You have something to do, though." Harry arched an eyebrow and waited. Salazar smirked, "Running. Ten laps around the lake. Then fifty push-up and fifty sit-ups." Harry groaned and headed outside.
An hour and a half later Harry dragged himself back into the castle, grumbling about being out of shape. He walked into the Great Hall and headed towards the Gryffindor table out of reflex.
"Ahem, Harry?" Harry looked up to see the founder's talking, Helga smiled and continued, "You can sit up here with us, sweetie."
Harry grinned sheepishly, "Routine. I've been sitting there for 5 years." He headed up to the head table. As he sat down, the food magically appeared on the table. As he began filling his plate he asked, "What else am I to do today?"
Godric smiled at Harry, "Well, we're going to see about getting you a phoenix first, then we are going to give you a whole bunch of books and leave to read."
Rowena spoke up next, "Every morning you'll get up at 6 and do your exercises, after breakfast you will join me for Charms and Transfiguration for 2 hours. After that you will join Helga in the green house for an half hour of Herbology, then you have two hours of Potions with Salazar. After potions you get an half hour break for lunch, then you have 3 hours with Godric for Dueling and Swordsmanship. Ryle will teach you in Wandless and Elven magic for an hour after your lessons with Godric. We will teach you how to be an animagi at the end of the year, but, for this week, you will wake up, do your exercises, then read. You will eat in your rooms for this week only, and by next Monday, I expect you to have finished the books we've left for you. Any questions?"
Harry sat there blinking at Rowena for a few minutes before speaking, "Err…yes. Will I be able to contact any of my friends or family?! 'Cause they will be worried about me. They probably already have people looking for me and-"
"When we send you back, we will write a letter to your headmaster, Dumbledore I believe you said his name was? We'll write a letter that explains everything to him. Don't worry, child, everything will be fine."
When they'd all finished eating, they left the Great Hall and lead Harry to his room. They approached a portrait of a griffin on the seventh floor and spoke the password, "Silver Wheel." When they entered, Harry gasped. The room was decorated in gold, red and black, with a large fireplace. Over the fireplace was a portrait of the founders. There were two large bookcases stacked with books and a desk with a large, overly stuffed chair and a four-poster bed on the other side of the room.
"The books on the shelves are the ones you need to read. We'll leave you alone for the week," Rowena smiled, "On Monday, simply come to the Great Hall and have breakfast instead of eating in your room."
With that, everyone, minus Harry, left the room. Harry walked over to the first bookcase and read through the titles there, then did the same for the other bookcase. There were books explaining all the subjects he was going to be taught. From the basics to the masters levels, the books explained it all. Harry grabbed the first book, Potions For Beginners, and began reading.
One week later
After his morning exercises, Harry walked into the Great Hall, "Good morning," he said cheerfully.
"Good morning, Harry. Have you finished the books?" asked Rowena.
"Yes, I have," replied Harry. He sat down and began to fill his plate with food.
When breakfast was finished Harry and Rowena headed off to a classroom where he reviewed everything he'd learned in his first 5 years of Hogwarts. After, he went to Green house 5 and spent half an hour with Helga learning about plants he'd never seen or heard of before.
Harry joined Salazar in the dungeons. He stood and watched Salazar working on his potions. Salazar looked up and smiled, "Hello Harry, come take a seat. Tell me, how good are you at potions?"
"Uhm…I'm not sure, sir. My potions teacher hates me and the Slytherins always throw things into my cauldron. I think I could be pretty good at it." Answered Harry.
Salazar stood there blinking for a few moments, then immediately began questioning Harry on the things he'd read in the previous week. Before leaving for lunch, Harry had brewed two perfect potions.
After lunch Godric and Harry waited for everyone else to leave the hall before beginning. Godric waved his wand and moved all the tables and benches to the walls.
"We are going to start with Dueling then Swordsmanship, later we will work on mixing the two, but that'd be better with Wandless Magic," Godric grinned, "Let's begin!"
For the first hour and a half Harry and Godric threw hexes, jinxes, curses and charms at each other. They stopped for half an hour to catch their breath and remove the spells they'd placed on each other. Harry looked at Godric and burst out laughing. He had pink hair, neon green robes, blue skin, tentacles sprouting out of his eyebrows and a tail. Harry was sure he didn't want to see what he looked like at the moment.
"Well, next time we'll be more serious," chuckled Godric, "Now! Onto swords!"
Godric conjured two swords and placed safety spells on them. He handed one to Harry and showed him how to hold it properly. They spent the next hour going through the basics of swordsmanship.
Ryle was waiting for Harry outside by the lake, "Hello, Harry," he motioned for Harry to sit down. After he had sat down, Ryle explained to him everything he needed to know about Wandless Magic and Elven Magic. Afterwards, it was dinner time.
Everyone was sitting at the table waiting for Godric to join them.
"Where is he?" asked Harry.
The doors to the Great Hall opened and Godric walked in. On both his shoulders where phoenix's, they were both red and gold. They only difference was that one had black eyes, while the other had emerald green eyes. The one with green eyes flew over to Harry, "Well, Harry, I'd like to introduce to you Talia. It seems she has chosen you as her master," said Godric.
Harry turned his head to look at the phoenix, without realizing he was trilling instead of speaking, he spoke to her, "Hello, Talia."
Talia looked at him and replied, "Hello, master."
Harry blinked, then looked at Godric. Godric smiled, "You can speak phoenix, remember?"
Harry blushed and turned back to his plate. After supper Harry headed off to his room to sleep.
Note: I will post part two…sometime tomorrow. I'd write it now, but am horribly tired.
