Chapter 21: The Wolf and Raven
It was the night before everyone was going back to their world and Elminster was walking down the hall of the God's Leave when he heard laughing coming from Harry and Hermione's room.
Elminster just kept walking until he heard the sound of a whimpering coming from the room that sounded not human.
Elminster, his pipe in his mouth walked to the door and knocked, thinking 'what is it they are doing in there'.
The laughing stopped and the sound of feet walking to the door was heared.
The door opened and Hermione was the one that opened it. She was dressed in a silk nightgown of a deep green colour and her eyes clearly said that she had been the one laughing earlier.
"Sorry for introducing but I thought I heard a whimper in here and decided to check on you two. Where is Mr Potter?" Elminster said putting his pipe in one of his pockets with out putting it out
Hermione looked over to the bed and started to giggle. Elminster followed her gaze and started to snigger himself.
Sitting on the bed was a black wolf with green eyes and a white lighting bolt shaped tuft of fur over one eye. The look on the animal's face clearly said 'Help me' and that did not look right on a wolf.
Elminster was able to stop after a moment but Hermione had dropped into a chair near by and had started to laugh out loud at the wolf on the bed. "Harry what happened and how do we get you back?" Elminster asked after calming Hermione down.
Harry looked at Hermione and then at Elminster as Hermione said, "He says for us to get McGonagall and try not to tell anyone about this."
Elminster nodded then left the room to find Minerva some where within the Inn. Minerva with Elminster and Aerie walked in a little while later.
Harry was off the bed and on the far side of the room within a heartbeat and Hermione looking at Aerie with a raised eyebrow. "Harry did asked for just Professor McGonagall and no one else was to see this. Why are you here Aerie?"
Aerie smiled at her then with a single move was on the other side of the bed and starting to pat Harry on the head. "I had to see him like this, I am sorry." she looked at him "But he is cute like this. Now how do we change him back?" Aerie asked Minerva while scratching Harry under the chin.
Minerva walked up to Harry then looked him over. "Well if anything he is a very nice wolf. Well Harry, try to think of yourself as you were as a human and that should do it. If not we will try something else."
Harry's face took on a look of hard thinking and then nothing happened and he gave a whine at this.
Hermione walked up to him and hugged him around the neck. "Harry, stop thinking like that. I will love you no matter how you look. Professor is there anything you can try?"
McGonagall was thinking hard at this while Aerie went down to the kitchen for some drinks for them all and Harry rested his head in Hermione's lap after she took a seat on the bed. Elminster was standing by the door making sure that no one looked in on this.
Aerie can back after a while with a glass of wine for everyone and a bowl for Harry who looked at the bowl then at her with a look of disgust.
"Harry, I think I know how to change you back but I have to get either two of the Weasley's or Dumbledore and a Weasley for it to work. I can do this and you need to decide who you what me to get?"
Harry looked up at Hermione then went to his bowl of wine and started to drink it. "He says to get Mr Weasley and Dumbledore and do not tell anyone but them what is going on," Hermione said while he was drinking.
Minerva nodded then looked to Aerie and Elminster and asked them to get Dumbledore and Mr Weasley now.
It took them half an hour to get Dumbledore and Mr Weasley to Harry and Hermione's room.
Mr Weasley, who had been talking to his wife walked in first with Aerie and asked Minerva. "Well how can I be of help Minerva? Aerie would not say a thing other than you need my help... ah, why is there a wolf on the bed and Hermione next to it?" he said after seeing Harry on the bed.
Dumbledore walked in then with Elminster behind him before Mr Weasley got an answer. "So Minerva how can I help you?" He asked while Elminster shut the door to stop Mrs Weasley from entering the room.
McGonagall pointed to Harry on the bed while saying. "Mr Potter here is now an Animagus who is unable to get back to normal, so I need you both to cast the reversing spell while Harry thinks of his human form and yes Harry, this is probably a one off time. After this you should be able to change at will."
Mr Weasley walked up to Harry and started to scratch his nose. "Well, I must say I like him like this. He looks so cuddly." Harry sudden snapped his jaw around that finger but not hard enough to break the skin and hold it there.
Hermione batted Harry's nose for that and he let go. "Harry, be nice or no fun tonight and you can sleep on the floor. Got it?"
Harry was on the floor and siting as straight as he could with a look of pride at his good behaviour while everyone was laughing at Hermione's threat to him. Hermione smiled at him then nodded to the others to go ahead with the spell.
Dumbledore and Minerva got their wands out then Mr Weasley not far behind them and in one move they all said the charm to dispel a spell as one.
Harry's out line blurred but then he was back in his Human form and had Hermione around his neck in no time in a Mrs Weasley type hug.
"Hermione, I think that you should do your change now while we have the people needed for this, just in case?" Harry said after returning the hug she gave him.
Hermione looked at the others in the room and then nodded and walked into the middle of the room. She started to blur around her form then a black Raven with her eyes was standing in the same place as she was before.
Hermione tried to fly but got a foot above the ground then crashed into the carpet. Harry walked up to her then picking her up he started to run a finger over her feathers along her back "Ok, you can try flying later but now just get back to normal, ok?"
Hermione nodded and then dropped to the floor with a glide from Harry's arm and then she started to blur and Hermione was back to her human form a smile on her face. The other, smiling at the new powers Harry and Hermione had now nodded their approval.
"Well I would say that I have some forms to get when we get back for those two to fill in, don't you say so Albus?" McGonagall said to him after leaving the room with the others, leaving Harry and Hermione for the night.
Albus nodded and replied. "I am glad though that he was willing to trust me for this."
Elminster just nodded to Mrs Weasley on his way down to the common room for a late night snack. Pulling out his still smoking pipe he thought, 'Well that is something new and I hope that Albus and Harry will get over their problem soon.'
============================================================================
The next morning found everyone up at dawn and getting ready for the return trip to Hogwarts. Drizzt who had left at midnight and got back to the Inn at noon with Harry and Hermione's armour ready for them.
Aerie and Merinid were down it their lab getting the portal ready with Liriel for the return trip.
Dumbledore, with McGonagall was talking to Elminster while the Simbul was watching Bill and Charlie run around the Inn looking for all their thing's a mischievous smile on her face at the fact that she had hidden some of their things for annoying her over the last couple of days.
Harry and Hermione just sat back while talking to Laeral who was seeing them off.
Ron and Ginny were sitting not far away playing some chess to pass the time.
At sunset Liriel walked out of the lab with Aerie and Merinid behind her. "The Gate is open and ready when you are." Liriel said after taking a drink of wine.
Drizzt nodded and put Harry and Hermione's armour back in the boxes after looking them over and started to walk down the stairs and to the gate. Dumbledore and McGonagall were next to go down with all of the Weasley's with them.
Harry got up then and thanked Merinid and the others for their help and hospitality for the past week and with Hermione went down to the gate.
Liriel looked at Elminster then at the Simbul and said "You tell you Mistress that this Dark Lord should be leaving the Weave alone for now but don't get you hopes up for it to be permeant."
Elminster nodded his head as did the Simbul and Laeral to her comment.
Liriel smiled at Aerie and Merinid then "Do come and visit sometime soon and try to bring the kids with you. It is a lovely place, Earth."
Aerie nodded. "Well we have not gone anywhere for so long that a holiday is in order, don't you think so Merinid?"
Merinid nodded at this while Liriel walked down the stairs and through the gate as it closed behind her.
============================================================================
It was sunrise at Hogwarts when Liriel walked through the gate to see Harry tell Dumbledore something and Drizzt walking to her office and McGonagall was leaving the room with all of the Weasley's behind her. Hermione was standing next to Harry.
Dumbledore nodded to what Harry said as he and Hermione left the room then Dumbledore pulled out an amulet from under his robes and started to concentrate on it. Liriel just shrugged and left for her office.
It was an hour later that Harry and Hermione came walking in to the Dark Arts room to talk to Drizzt and Liriel later that night.
Liriel was looking over the armour for Harry and Hermione that they wanted to have enchanted, Drizzt was over by one of the bookshelves reading up on his spells.
"Drizzt, Liriel. Are you doing anything tonight about 8 o'clock?" Harry asked his sword belt on and Hermione was carrying her staff.
Liriel looked up from Harry's armour, a beautiful piece of Mithral that was full body, covering the leg's and arms but also allowing the arm's and legs' full movement "I have no plan's for tonight Do you love?" she asked Drizzt.
Drizzt looked at her then at Harry and Hermione "I can make that and before you two go we have a gift for you." Drizzt got up and walked over to a chest next to Liriel's desk.
Harry and Hermione both walked over to them as Drizzt pulled out of the chest a long sword with a gold dragon shaped pommel with emeralds for eyes and a Adamantine blade with gold runes of some kind running up the blade. Next to come out was a dagger that was a match to the long sword, the same pommel and blade runes running up it but not as many as the sword. After the dagger a Quarterstaff was next. It was made from an black coloured wood with Mithral ending on it and like the sword it to had runes running it's full length filled with silver to help make them stand out.
"This is too good for us to use. I mean, it must have cost a fortune to make." Hermione said after seeing the weapons and the fine workmanship that had gone in to them.
Liriel smiled at them. "A leader needs fine weapons to fight a war and you will find no finer that these on this world. Now for the good part. All of these have been enchanted with powerful magic and I will tell you what is on them as Drizzt hands them to you." Drizzt picked up the long sword first and handed it to Harry.
"That has had a enchantment for strength and has a Holy spell on it, which should kill those Dementor's and it has a sharping spell as well and to finish it has a flaming spell, but all of this must hit a target for it to work. If you push the end of the hilt to one side you can place your wand in it and cast your spells like you do now."
Drizzt reached for the dagger now and handed this to Harry too. "This is a bit different to your sword but it does have the enchantment for strength and sharping on it though not the Holy and flaming. Instead we have a spell blade enchantment on it which is keyed to the pain curse you told me about. It will absorb that spell. It also has a shocking enchantment as well but like the flaming it has to hit the target. The spell blade will work if the dagger is out and ready."
Drizzt reached for the staff next and handed it to Hermione. "Now this is a fine piece of work. The staff was made by Hagrid. It has the same strength enchantment and Holy as well, but it also has the spell blade but keyed to the killing curse. It also has a Disruption enchantment, as well which will kill most undead with one hit, including Vampire's and Lich's. And it you press this rune you can place your wand in your staff and this will make your staff one big wand."
Hermione looked at her staff while Harry tried out some spells from his sword with his wand in the hilt and then looked at Drizzt and Liriel. "How can we thank you for these weapon's?" He asked.
Drizzt shook his head at this. "We are giving you them because you will need them later I know this much at least. Now what are you going to call your weapons, for all good weapons need a name."
Harry looked at his sword to see the emeralds glowing with an inner fire. "I think I will call the sword Flame Tongue, and the dagger I think will be Shock Tooth. Thank you for this."
Hermione had placed her wand in the staff by then and was trying it out before answering them "It is very nice and I think the name Dark Scourge will do. Thank you both for this."
Drizzt and Liriel smiled at them then Drizzt spoke. "I am glad you like them. Now off you go and we will see you tonight in the great hall at 8 o'clock."
Harry and Hermione nodded to them both then left for an afternoon nap for later tonight and to work on something needed for tonight.
