Chapter Four: The Dream

Harry and Professor Dumbledore took some time to actually catch up on all of the things happening in the wizardry world and what had happened to Harry over the past few weeks before Dumbledore finally stood up and said:

"Harry I think that it is best we get you packed and back to Hogwarts."

"That is awesome Professor, but, well not that I really care, but what about the Dursleys?" Harry asked with some hesitation.

"Ha I understand it seems we came to get you the next day after Voldemort had already come and caught you, so we explained to them the situation and what was really happening in the world. They could not believe the reality of it so I sent them on vacation and when they come back everything will be explained only with a bit of twist they are not expecting."

"What is the twist Professor? Harry asked with curiosity.

"I can not tell you that quite yet Harry, do not worry you will find out tomorrow or the next day at the latest."

After the many questions, the fact that he was leaving the Dursleys put him in an instant good mood. Harry and Professor Dumbledore went around getting everything that had been messed up with his sudden disappearance with the death eaters. Harry packed everything, and then Professor handed something very small to open. It was wrapped and Professor Dumbledore said

"This is an early birthday gift for you Harry. As it is you already own it; I am just returning it to its rightful owner."

Harry ripped open the box, as fast as he could and inside of the box was a small model of his Firebolt, the fastest broomstick in existence. When he brought it out of the box it turned into its normal size and Harry glowed with excitement.

"Professor does this mean that…"

"Yes Harry it does," Professor Dumbledore replied with a smile.

"I am back on the Quidditch team!!" Harry yelled with such happiness that Professor Dumbledore could not believe that he ever allowed that Umbridge women to treat Harry the way she did.

"Also I believe that this should belong to you as well Harry."

Professor Dumbledore handed a patch with a Gryffindor Lion on it, Harry asked

"What is this for Professor?"

"This Harry is a patch that only a few ever get to wear. This is the captain's patch for Gryffindor, and it is my belief that you will make another great captain, one that will be known for many generations, just like your father."

Harry celebrated greatly. He hoped that he would be just as good as his father was in his time. Professor Dumbledore told Harry that it was time to leave, so Harry touched the Captain's Patch (which happened to be a portkey as well) and he felt the all too familiar tug at his navel. When they landed they were standing right outside of Hogwarts, where a carriage was waiting to take them up to the castle.

"Now Harry, I assume that after everything in the last few days you are quite tired."

"Yes Professor, umm, where do I sleep?" Harry asked

"You will spend your time here in your common room; there are no passwords because it is summer. However, do not unpack just yet because tomorrow we have many plans, along with your 16th birthday," Dumbledore replied.

As Professor said this, Harry just fully realized that he had been gone for almost four days and that tomorrow he would be turning 16 years old. He was hoping that it would be better than the last 15 years, but he was not putting much faith into it. Harry headed to the common room; he had all sorts of thoughts flowing through his mind. Finally he arrived at his dormitory and went to unpack when he remembered that Dumbledore had told him not to, he wondered if he would be going to the Weasleys. He missed his best friends, Ron and Hermonie, but he pushed these thoughts to the back of his head as he fell to sleep immediately.

What Harry saw next was so overwhelming he just stood there and stared. He was looking at a man around 26 years of age and around 6 feet 3inchs. He had a muscular build and was standing in a grassy meadow with a slight breeze, wielding a Water Blade. He turned around with a smile and said,

"Hello Harry. How nice of you to join me; it took you long enough."

"Now Harry do not worry, you are not going crazy, at least not yet, ha ha just kidding with you, kid. Anyway, right now you are asleep, dreaming and I have been sent through time in order to help you understand who you really are. Well, actually all I am here to do today is to warn you that tomorrow is your birthday and you will be receiving some extraordinary powers along with new responsibilities. I can not actually tell you what they are but your professor should know, and be of some help in explaining your heritage and what it means. You are a very powerful person Harry; you have powers that have not been seen in many decades. I will be seeing you again to actually help you but not for a few days at least. So as my time is now up I must leave, but Happy Birthday Harry."

"Wait, who are you? How will I know what to do?" Harry asked

"Harry you are a smart kid and strong too, you will know what to do. As to my name, well my name will mean nothing to you at this time, but in my time I helped destroy the evil that ruled our lands for over a thousand years," replied the unknown.

"Okay, so what is your name?" Harry asked again.

"My name is Tidus."

A/N: For those of you who do not know who Tidus is I will be adding a short description on who he is and what he has done that is so important to his time. As always R&R
