*Chapter 9*
*********Up Above*********
Sirius put a cream coloured cloak around Harry and gave him a sort of glowing silver orb (It's a type of entrance ticket, you hold it up to the guards and it reflects your true nature and appearance. The guards will hopefully accept yours.), and pushed Harry gently towards a pair of high oak doors, which were elaborately decorated.
"Orb please," A guard dressed in tight black stood against the doors as a barrier.
Harry and Sirius showed their orbs, Sirius's was gleaming ocean blue – representing his worries. Both guards accepted them and opened the doors a crack to let them through.
"What are we doing here?" Harry asked. They had just entered a plain white never-ending room.
"This is a sort of message board – you say what you want out loud and you receive it, only if it is approved of by the Charter Mages. Charter Mages are respected highly for the superiority in their magic. They need no wands and use special spells that consist of Charter Marks. Don't worry, you don't need to know about them – yet," Sirius added, as he saw that time was rushing past. In the living world, days went by like a speeding bullet.
"So, all I have to say is something I want aloud? Okay, well hear goes nothing….." Harry concentrated on his deepest desire, he didn't have to think long as the moment his mind settled on his heart, it answered two words.
*********I need a date!*********
Riana, Aurora and Leah waltzed out of their Highams common room and trotted down the staircase, towards the Main Hall.
"Food Glorious Food, hot sausage and mustard (A/N: I think that's how it goes!)," Leah skipped ahead the other two as they entered the through the doors.
Everyone was busy eating to notice them arrive. Leah bustled through two of the tables and lodged herself into her seat. Riana and Aurora sat themselves next to her.
"Great," Riana looked at the food around
her, "All grease packed."
"Yeah, I know but that's all you get with those idiotic house elves serving our house," Aurora muttered.
"Well, I'm not going to eat this junk. Look, see the food down the table? I'm going to grab something from there. Pain du chocolat for me, how about you?" Riana asked.
"Yeah, I think I'll stick with the same before the usual déjà vu starts up – food fight! Voltaire should really do something about it," Aurora replied.
"Leah, what do – " Riana started.
Leah was stuffing her mouth with whatever she could before lunch ("I really have to go to the library." Odd because she never sets foot in there.), clearly she didn't care about the fat in the food.
Riana was wearing her robes for the first lesson, starting two hours later, but even her uniform did nothing to her well-proportioned body, which was good because she had to keep up her status as Head Prefect (A/N: Different from Head Girl).
As she reached the end of the table, her eyes settled on something that made her face slightly flush into a blush pink. Her old crush was seated in front of the pain du chocolat. She really did not need this now, however she checked how she looked anyway.
Her slender hand reached out to delicately swipe her finger over the hot bread. Her crush's eyes had caught sight of the movement and his eyes shot into Riana's own.
He locked his eyes with hers, intense and deep, thought Riana. Her hair swirled in front of her face as she turned and picked up her breakfast – this should get his attention. Her fingers enclosed around the bread and she lifted it from the pile.
"You express your desire quite a bit," a very deep voice flooded Riana's ears.
She turned around to face her crush and saw that his eyes twinkled with a sort of devious look.
"Expressing my desire?" Riana asked in an innocent type of way.
"Well, little angel, if you want some pain du chocolat, you really could have just asked."
Riana would have fallen there and then, how thick could someone get – although his French was very charming. Oh well, you couldn't have everything in the world.
"Um…..sorry I didn't quite catch your name, Cole, isn't it?" Riana tried to ignore his last statement and create a conversation.
"Yeah, I'm Cole, Cole Hunter," He smiled; his glistening white teeth seemed to ping.
"I'm – "
"Riana Sanchez, I know. You're in all my classes."
Bummer, I should have seen that coming, thought Riana.
"So, Halloween Dance is this Friday," Riana tried yet again to create some conversation.
"I know."
Riana groaned to herself, "Who are you going with?"
"No one yet, but I am thinking of asking a certain someone," Cole started to get a little worried, it was obvious Riana wanted to go with him, but he wanted – no, more like needed to go with Holly.
"Oh," Riana felt deflated, for the first time, a guy had said he was going with someone else. Where would pick up date from now? "Well, got to go."
With that Riana left him and walked back to Aurora to pick up her bag.
"Where's my breakfast, Riana?" Aurora asked.
"Just leave me alone for the moment okay," Riana looked bummed and she left Aurora and Leah having to walk to class without her……(A/N: The next bit happens at the same as this I need a date part.)
*********What I want*********
Harry felt Sirius's concerned eyes fall upon him, waiting for his answer.
The Charter Mages won't mind, I mean this desire is easy for them to grant. Hang on a minute, granting, this better not kill me. Anyway, what I want is up here, yes, I will say it.
Harry smiled at his thought and nodded to Sirius showing he was ready.
"Do you want me to leave or stay, Harry?"
"No! Stay, I don't know how things work up here," Harry rushed out.
"If you're sure – four chairs!" Sirius shouted to his right. Where he pointed four rather comfortable looking chairs appeared before them.
"Four? How did you – "
"Say what you want Harry."
Harry took a deep breath, he couldn't believe that this was his chance; he was finally going to meet –.
"My parents."
For about two milliseconds nothing happened. Then suddenly, as if the air around him was turning to ice, he felt a presence within the room. The room filled with voices engulfing every nook and cranny in the entire hall. A whirl of orbs swirled around the centre and began to shape of two humans. Just as suddenly as everything had started, everything stopped.
In the centre of the room stood, proudly hand in hand, James and Lily Potter.
"Harry! Oh, honey, are you okay?" Lily ran up to him and embraced Harry in a warm hug.
Harry felt his mother's red locks of hair fall on his face. Soft and delicate. Just like he imagined. He returned his mother's gesture.
James grinned and squeezed Harry pretty much the same as Sirius had done. Then quite unexpectedly, the both let go and turned to Sirius.
"Sirius, why is he up here?" James started.
"He isn't dead is he?" Lily tried to keep the panic from her voice.
"Yes, he is dead (Lily's eyes grew wide and James threw his arms around her.), but he's going to made into something special," Sirius began to sound excited.
All worry seemed to have disappeared from Lily and James as the idea had suddenly dawned upon them.
"My son, a whitelighter!" Lily squealed, she ran and grabbed Harry's hands.
"Do you know what this means boy? It means you are an angel, to serve your charges and look after them," James smiled, ruffling his hair as always. Harry just stood there, dumbstruck.
"James Potter! How are you trying to flirt with?" Lily shouted at James when she saw this movement.
James flushed slightly, and Sirius tried to stifle his laugh, "Sorry Lils force of habit."
"Habit!" She countered back.
"Now, now, we have to explain to Harry quickly. There is only an hour left in the other realm," Sirius interrupted.
James explained what a whitelighter was, much like Dumbledore to Ron. At the end, their reunion had been completed. Harry had finally seen his beloved parents and hated the fact of leaving them once again.
"Never mind that! Haven't you been listening to a word I was saying? Now you're a whitelighter, you can pop up here and visit us whenever you want," Lily mentioned.
"Half an hour," Sirius prepared himself to leave.
"We love you Harry, and we'll always be watching over you," James and Lily kissed Harry on the cheeks before the whirls of light absorbed them.
"Time to go," Sirius faded and so did the room, Harry's clothing and his orb.
Harry woke up to find himself on a bed in the hospital wind. He sat up and put on his glasses, just in time to see Ron and Dumbledore, before Ron gave him a great hug. Ron let go quickly and Harry saw Dumbledore smile before he vanished. (A/N: There will be NO 'hanky panky' between them got it!)
"So you find out you're a whitelighter. Join the club, mate, I'm one too," Ron smirked.
"What! You're dead too! When did you die?" Harry was receiving a lot of shocks today.
"A long time ago, think I was three. My parents but my siblings don't," Ron sounded very solemn.
"Wait a minute where's Hermione?" Harry asked.
"She got knocked out by something very hard," Ron, pointed to the bed next to Harry, curtains covered it, and "She's in a coma." Ron finished.
*********Lessons*********
Harry was told that Hermione might be revived soon but both Ron and Harry were in a right mind of shock.
However, Harry was able to join Ron in their first class, without their best friend Hermione.
"So what do you the Transfiguration teacher's going to be like, Harry?" Ron asked rather sheepishly as the all the exchange students lined up against the wall, ready to enter their first lesson.
"Strict, stern, mean, a person who loves homework, too tidy – " Harry was interrupted, as the Professor came out of the classroom.
"Please wait in silence, I do not want to have to raise my voice above you all," The Professor was a tall, lean, female ("What a coincidence," Ron said), who held her hair loosely over her shoulders. Her wiry figure made her look highly aged but she covered it up well with the make-up and clothing. Her glowing amber eyes made her look like an owl.
"I am Professor Zelda Zeladin, your transfiguration teacher for this year."
*********Temper*********
"Get into pairs – SILENTLY!" Professor Roderick Warlord shouted. Potions had begun.
"Hey Cole do you want to be – " Riana never got to finish her sentence.
"Hello-ism," Holly grabbed Cole's attention just like that leaving Riana to work on her own – or with Warlord. She chose to be by herself.
How dare she just barge in here, acting like she rules the place, okay maybe she does because she is Head Girl, but that doesn't give her the right to everything! This means WAR! Riana thought.
"She wasn't trying to chat you up was she?" Holly asked Cole as they worked.
"Nah, she wanted me to be her date for the dance – but I said I was taking someone else," Cole added.
"You could have just mentioned my name," Holly said.
"No matter, it's settled now," Cole reassured Holly.
"I don't care. This means war," Holly murmured to herself.
