I would like to say I've come to the conclusion that Dumbledore can not be over 150. I'll even give you several reasons why. Number one, in Harry's second year when Harry went into Tom Riddle's memory, Dumbledore had auburn hair. I don't remember if it was streaked with silver or not but it still had color. Now if Dumbledore was over 150 what man at 100 years old would still have his natural hair color, albeit it may had streaks of silver. Second is Griselda Marchbanks said she was the OWLS instructor for Dumbledore when he did Transfiguration and Charms. That would make Griselda over 200! I mean I know in the book it said she had so many lines her face looked like it had a cobweb over it but over 200 is a hell of a lot.
Chapter 17 Potter Manor
The house rivalries were getting bigger and more dangerous. Madam Pomfrey had at least ten patients a day. The dueling platform in the Room became a big asset to Gryffindors. The first Quidditch game was coming up tomorrow and Harry was in a panic. They were versing Hufflepuffs but the new Chaser and the reserve were both in the hospital wing because they were ambushed by Slytherins.
So Harry and Ron made a tough decision. They finally decided on what to do though. Ron was going to make Kristen Riley, the reserve Seeker play as the Seeker for the game. Harry would play the open Chaser position. They were having practice today to see if it would work. Erin Lavery was upset because she was only going to be playing this season and she was missing the first game.
The team left after lunch and headed out to the Quidditch pitch. Malfoy was glaring at Harry, who just waved back cheekily. The main rivalry was Harry and Malfoy. Everyone knew that was what it really boiled down too. Sure Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs were a part of it but everyone knew it always came down to Harry and Malfoy.
The first main battle of the houses was Harry and his "crew" and Malfoy and his group. Harry Potter the sexy, brave, kind, boy-next-door and Draco Malfoy the cute, cunning, arrogant, bad boy. Well at least that is how it was described to Harry.
The practice was brutal. Ron made Kristen verse Harry several times before he was satisfied with her skills. He was happy her parents got her a Nimbus 2001 so she had a decent broom. Ron also made Harry, Katie and Ginny go over every Chaser play there was. By the time dinner came around the team was exhausted.
"You guys gotta eat!" Ron exclaimed. He was eating some bacon and toast. Harry was wolfing down breakfast because he was use to this. The same thing with Katie. The new players however were looking queasy.
"Don't worry Neville" Harry said as they walked to the locker rooms. "You'll do good. I also heard your family will be there watching you. Just don't push yourself past your limit and try to remain focused and you'll do good"
Neville nodded his pale head. Harry sighed praying to anyone that would hear him, to make sure Neville didn't mess up. He quickly put on his robes grabbed his Firebolt and went behind Katie and Ginny..
"Good evening ladies, gentlemen and Slytherins!" Seamus's voice rang throughout the stadium. Seamus replaced Lee as announcer. He didn't curse a lot and stuck to the game, most of the time. "I'd like to welcome the Hufflepuffs! Chasers Finch-Fletchy, Smith and Baker! Seeker Bentley, Keeper Rooney and Beaters Macmillan and their captain Gates!" the Hufflepuffs stand went wild. Most Slytherins cheered and about half the Ravenclaws did.
"Now the best house ever!" the Gryffindors cheered in agreement, while the others booed. "Now the Gryffindor team Chasers Weasly, Bell and since the regular and reserve Chasers are in the Hospital wing Potter! Beaters Longbottom and Monroe, Seeker who is filling in for Potter, Riley and Captain and Keeper Weasly!" some Slytherins, half of Ravenclaw and the Gryffindors erupted into cheers.
"I want a clean game! Captains shake hands" Madame hooch said. Ron walked up to Gates to shake his hand. It looked like Gates gripped his hand and tried squeezing it as hard as he could. Ron grimaced a little in pain and returned the favor. Gates winced in pain, and Ron let go.
"The balls are released. There goes the golden snitch, followed by the bludgers. The quaffle is tossed and Potter nabs it. He is speeding down the turf to the Hufflepuff goal. Dodges a bludger, ducks a Hufflepuff chaser. He moves in to the top goal but drops it to Weasly. She scores! 10-0 Gryffindor. Bet you the Hufflepuff Keeper didn't see that coming!
"Smith has the quaffle and is speeding to the gryffindor goals! Potter comes up aside him and ducks the bludger sent at him by Gates. Oh Potter steals the quaffle and tosses it to Bell. She fakes left and scores! 20-0 Gryffindor!"
The game continued but got more vicious. Smith sped full on and collided with Katie when she was attempting to score, but Madam Hooch didn't see it because Gates was distracting her. Speaking of Gates, he tried to hit Harry in the head with his Beater's bat. Harry, however, caught the bat in his hand, yanked it out of Gates grasp and chucked it as far as he could. No penalty was called because Madam Hooch was distracted by Smith. The Hufflepuffs were angry their plan didn't work.
The game was getting violent. The good thing was most of what Gryffindor did was legal. The only problem was they did it so brutally that most thought it should be illegal. Neville was hitting the bludgers like they were Snape's head. Two of them would each go on a side of a Hufflepuff, not Justin, Ernie or the only girl, and lead them into something. (Think the game verse Slytherin in the 1st Harry Potter movie. Remember what the Slytherins did to one of the chasers? When they kind of guided her into the stands) When the Hufflepuffs tried to foul Harry he would always defend himself and wind up hurting a Hufflepuff or giving them a disadvantage.
The score was 250-60 Gryffindor. It was a good thing Harry was as good as a chaser as he was a seeker. Harry was hoping Kristen would catch the snitch. If she didn't however it didn't matter because Gryffindor was up by 190 points. It seems Harry is just as good as a Chaser as he is Seeker.
Soon though the two Seekers went into a dive. The golden snitch was heading towards the ground. Half way there though it turned upwards. Harry kept one eye on the snitch and the other on the rest of the game. It seemed most were distracted, to busy watching the Seekers. Harry just sighed and took the quaffle from Smith, who didn't even notice. Harry set there with the quaffle in his arms and floated to the Hufflepuff goal post.
The Seekers were closing in on the snitch. They both reached out. Harry seeing that Kristen was struggling to keep up scored one more goal, just in case. Soon Bentley had the snitch in her grasp and the game ended Gryffindor 260, Hufflepuff 210.
The Gryffindors had a big party. It led well into the night and a lot of 7th years and Harry were all drunk. Harry fell onto a couch after having danced with basically every girl there. A girl fell on top of him a while later, grabbed his face and started to snog him. Since Harry was wasted he didn't protest but went along with it. A drunk Harry passed out on one of the couches in the Room, with an equally drunk girl on top of him.
Harry awoke with something heavy on him. He opened his eyes but immediately closed them because the bright light hurt his eyes. His head was pounding and he felt like a jackhammer was going off in his head.
He tried to get up but something heavy was preventing him. Harry lifted his head up but his vision was blocked by brownish, blond hair. Harry using his free hand, the other being pinned down by this person, pushed the hair away. Looking up Harry saw the ceiling. Turning his head Harry saw the face of Katie Bell. Her head was resting on his chest and her light brown eyes were closed.
Harry tried to carefully get up, hoping not to disturb Katie. It didn't work though. Katie's eye opened groggily. She was still on Harry. She lifted her head and looked at him. Harry smiled at her and she blinked.
"Hey Katie" Harry said softly. "You mind getting off me?" he asked. Katie nodded and got off of him slowly. "You got a hangover too?" Katie nodded her head, painfully. "Follow me" Harry walked out of the Room, Katie following.
He lad her to his dorm and pushed open the door. Seamus and Neville were both on their beds and Dean was on his bed. Harry tip toed to his trunk and opened the 4th compartment up. He took out the rest of his supply of the Marauders Famous Hangover Potion. He poured it into several flask. He handed one over to Katie and drunk one himself. After the burning sensation went down Harry's headache disappeared. He looked over at Katie and saw hers too had disappeared.
"Thanks Harry" Katie said smiling.
"No problem Katie" Harry said. "I better bring this for others with a hangover" Harry walked back downstairs and into the Room. He put the flask on a table right next to the door. He wrote a quick note telling the people what it was a left the room. Katie was waiting for him on the other side.
"Harry do you have any idea on what happen last night?" she asked. Harry shook his head. "How the hell did I wind up on you!?" she asked bewildered.
"Am I not comfy enough for you?" Harry asked in mock sadness.
"Oh no you were very comfy and warm too!" Katie said quickly, not realizing Harry was kidding.
"Warm eh?" Harry teased. Katie blushed a little. Harry chuckled at her embarrassment. "Nothing to be ashamed of Katie. If it wasn't for the fact that you weigh a millions tons I might of enjoyed it too!"
Katie growled and hit Harry. "It's true!" Harry joked. He got up and started to run away because Katie was about to tackle him. She chased him around the room until managing to tackle him unto a chair. However the chair fell backwards when they flew on it, Katie slid forwards and her lips brushed against Harry's. Harry pulled her face back on top of his and a series of passionate kisses followed.
"Katie...you...wanna...go...out...with...me?" Harry asked between kisses.
"Sure" Katie said as she pulled away from Harry. They were still kissing when Ginny and Dean came walking out of the Room.(anyone got a name for the Room. I just can't keep calling it the Room.)
"Harry I never knew you were such an animal!" Dean said enthusiastically. Katie and Harry stood up quickly, both with pink tinges on their cheeks. Harry looked at Dean and saw amusment in his eyes. Harry looked at Ginny and saw...was that jealousy? Ginny quickly looked away however and pulled Dean down to breakfast.
Harry and Katie went down to breakfast. The four tables had been rearranged by the students. The Gryffindors table was right in front of the double doors. Since they were the bravest they accepted to have an area where the enemy could easily get them from behind. Slytherins, being the cunning bastards they are, had the Staff table right behind them. Hufflepuff had the wall to the right of the Gryffindors and the Ravenclaws to the left.
Harry sat down and only saw several Gryffindors eating. Most of the other house tables were full. When Harry looked over at the Slytherin table he saw them whispering and glancing over here. Not liking the looks of it Harry whispered. "Gryffindors move closer to me!" the few Gryffindors there, which were mainly 1st, 2nd and 3rd years got up and moved over to Harry. Ginny however refused to budge and Dean being the loyal boyfriend he was stayed with her.
Harry saw basically all of the Slytherins pull out their wands. They shot multiple curses over here. Harry yelled "Shields up!" and quickly cast a shield to defend the ones who were by him. Ginny and Dean threw up shields but it didn't look like they were going to hold. "Send curses back" Harry told the ones by him. Since most were 1st, 2nd and 3rd years mostly tickling charms and leg lockers were thrown. Harry and Katie were sending over stunners.
Against the barrage of attacks the Slytherins themselves erected shields. The others houses erected shields or crawled under the table to avoid deflected spells. Though none as powerful as Harrys. Some Slytherins were still able to fire curses however. Most at Ginny and Dean. Harry ran out of his shield. Now the Slytherin fire was directed at him. Harry shouted "Leve Escudos!"(take away shield) and "Potente Multiplo Stupefy"(multiple powerful) in quick session. First a blue wave of light crashed into the Slytherins shields, knocking most out, then multiple red beams shot out of his wand and straight into the Slytherins.
After his stunners hit the Slytherins along with the barrage of spells and curses the other Gryffindors were sending, Dumbledore finally stood up. "Enough!" The Gryffindors and Slytherins lowered their wands and the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws got out from under the table or dropped their shields.
"Revive you house mates!" the Slytherins went around taking off the charms and awaking their comrades. The Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws doing the same to the few of theirs that were hit. "Teachers take care f your houses! I want to finish breakfast in peace! Mr. Potter take away the shield!" Harry waved his wand and the shield disappeared.
Professor McGonagall, Hagrid, Sirius and Remus all came over. None of the other house liked the fact that Gryffindor had five professors on their side. Even though McGonagall was strict she still showed a little bit of favor to her house and Dumbledore "refused" to take sides, they all knew how much he cared about the Dream Team(a.k.a.: Golden Trio, Gryffindor Trio, Infamous Trio, Golden Gryffindors and every other name the world has come up for them.) And everyone knew Professor Black was Potter's godfather and Professor Lupin was just as close. They also knew that Hagrid and the Gryffindors got on well.
"Bloody hell Harry!" Sirius said excitedly.
"Mr. Potter explain yourself!" Professor McGonagall said.
"Just self defense!" Harry replied.
"But you still attacked a student" McGonagall said.
"Yeah so Snape is rewarding his house" Harry pointed to where the house points were displayed an saw the Slytherins rise 50 points.
Sirius spoke up loudly. "5 points from each Slytherin who attack fellow class mates unprovoked."
The Slytherins lost over 200 points. Snape opened his mouth. "300 points..." he was interrupted by Dumbledore however.
"Professor Snape keep quiet. You shouldn't of rewarded you house for that attack in the first place. You should be lucky Professor Black only took away that much points."
"Yeah we all knew if it was us Gryffindors you would take away 100 for each student!" Harry said loudly.
"Mr. Potter!" Dumbledore said warningly. Harry grinned sheepishly in return. The teachers returned to the Staff table and Harry finished his breakfast. He stepped out of the Great Hall and started to walk up the staircases but was stopped by a drawling voice.
"You think your so tough Potter. If we fought in a real duel, outside of school I would kill you"
"Alright then Malfoy. After midnight, you and me in the Forbidden Forest" Harry said.
"Are you crazy Potter. I thought the centaurs are violent and a threat to people!"
"Alright your to scared I understand" Harry said and he walked away. Draco sad their fuming. He was not to scared to do anything! He was a Malfoy! Potter would learn to respect him. Malfoy stormed away angrily.
Harry grinned. He went to Remus's office. Sirius, Ron, Hermione, Remus and Aunt Michelle were all going over to Potter Manor. Harry wanted to see where his dad and aunt grew up. He was told it was gigantic. His aunt told him that there were many wards around the house.
They apparated onto a small road. It was on a small strip of land that looked to be as wide as a four-lane highway. The road winded a little until Harry saw a big spot of land farther away, Something big appeared to be in the middle of it and a forest surrounded it.
When they reached the part where the small strip of land met larger piece of land, they found a gate. The gate blocked the whole view and you couldn't see past it because it was a solid, black, humongous gate! There was a crest on the middle of the gate. The crest was split in half. It had the Gryffindor lion on the right side, a crown on the left. In the background was the letter P.
Aunt Michelle pushed open the gate. Behind it Harry saw a huge amount of land. Farther down their was a big house, a mansion. Harry walked towards the house, wishing there was a shorter way to get to the house that looked to be a mile away. Ron kept saying "wow" at everything he saw.
Finally when they reached the 3 story house, Harry opened the door. They were in a big hallway. It had dark wood paneling and a dark blue rug. Harry glanced over to his left and saw a map of the house and outside. Their was a library, study, kitchen, dining hall, den, living room, lounge, game room, 3 water closets, 10 extra rooms and 4 offices on the first floor. There was a dueling chambers and a potions lab in the basement. The 2nd and 3rd floor consisted of 50 bedrooms and 35 bathrooms. Outside there was 2 Quidditch pitches, a lake, a pool, some greenhouses and over 50 acres of open land. On two sides of the to the East and North was a forest on the other sides of the forest was a cliff to the East and a beach to the north. South was where the gate was, leading to the tiny strip of land. The last side had a hill leading down to a beach. Past the beach was the ocean. All together the Potter Manor had about 100 acres of land.
Michelle explained to Harry that a tribe of centaurs lived in the forest. If anyone managed to find the place and wanted to attack from the forest the centaurs, who were loyal to the Potters would attack the intruders. Many other animals such as unicorns, nifflers, abraxans, hippogriffs, bowtruckles, fairies, snidgets, thestrals, and wood nymphs lived with in the forest. At the bottom of the lake was a tribe of merpeople. Who also traveled into the ocean by the secret underwater passage there.
Harry was running from room to room in order to see it all. When he reached the study he found a tapestry on the wall. It was like the one at Sirius's house that showed his family tree. Except this one was the Potter family tree. Harry looked at it. It went as far back as Romeo Potter, the first Britain Minister of Magic. Harry looked at the family tree. There was a name that looked like it was blown off.
"Who was that?" Harry asked pointing to the name.
"Oh. Well you see Harry basically all families have a dark wizard somewhere in there history. The Potters actually had two. Both were really dark but they didn't follow Voldemorts views on Muggles and Muggle-borns. They thought that Muggle technology would be great mixed with magic. The first one was my Great, great Grandmother, Susan Potter. She teamed up with another dark wizard from Germany named Hanz Frikson. They weren't as well known as Voldemort or anything because they both died during the middle of the war. An American wizard named Nathan Adams killed them both. The other, your Great Grandfather or my Grandfather, Jeremiah Potter, was the darkest part of the Potter history. Harry, Jeremiah Potter also went by the name of Grindewald." Hermione and Ron gasped. Harry just looked at her for a second.
"So I'm related to Grindewald?" Harry asked.
"Yup" Michelle said.
"Is that it because I saw a portrait of Godric Gryffindor and I look like him a little bit." Harry said uncertainly.
"Yes you are related to Godric Gryffindor Harry. From my moms side of the family though. Not the Potter side. James got most of his looks from our mom. The hair actually runs in the Potter family. All your sons will have it!" Michelle explained.
"So I'm related to Gryffindor and Grindewald? Anyone else?"
"Um Dumbledore is your great, great uncle" Ron and Hermione gasped again.
"Great, great uncle?" Harry questioned.
"Yeah he was my grandmothers, the one who married Jeremiah Potter, older brother. 15 years older to be exact."
"Oh um Harry" Remus started quietly. "I don't know if your going to want to hear this but your mom wasn't a muggle-born"
"Wait what do you mean she wasn't a muggle-born?" Harry asked bewildered.
"Your mom's family had a memory charm placed on them when your mom was a baby. Petunia is actually a squib, Your mom's real last name was O'Flaniggans, a long line of Irish purebloods. Your grandma was a heir of Slytherins. Harry you, Petunia and Dudley are all heirs of Slytherin"
Harry sat their. Silent for a few minutes. Shock was clearly shown on his face, Ron and Hermione gasped again, this time louder and Harry wished they would shut up. 'So I'm related to Snakeface. With quite a distance between thankfully. Will I turn out evil? Am I going to follow in Slytherins footsteps? No, no after all I'm related to Gryffindor!' Soon Harry came back to his senses and they continued the tour, although quieter.
Soon they finally left the house and started to walk back to the gate. Harry glanced around the area, deep in thought. "What wards and spells are around here?" Harry asked.
"Well let's see. Anti-Apparation, muggle repelling, unplotable, anti-portkey, and a lot of others I can't remember." Michelle answered.
Harry nodded his head and took out both his wands. He pointed one at the sky and the other at the ground. "Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro." Harry chanted. "Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro! Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro! Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro! proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro" Harry yelled. A burst of bright white light burst from Harry and surrounded all of Potter Manor and surrounding area. Harry collapsed due to magical exhaustion.
Man in this story Harry does a complete 180 with girls. I mean in OotP he was shy and didn't know what to do. In mine he is assertive and knows exactly what to do. Go Harry. It's your birthday!
Oh when I made Harry used the "Leve Escudos!" spell, I made him go out of his shield because if he didn't his shield would take the blow.
Also I make Harry leave school a lot to do all these things is because they all fit in later on in the story. The action in the story is coming up. Prepare for a lot of battle scenes.
I get all my info on Harry Potter from www.hp-lexicon.org I read about the griffin and it is different from how I described it but I'm gonna stick with my way.

Ginny however refused to budge and Dean being the loyal boyfriend he was stayed with her.
Harry saw basically all of the Slytherins pull out their wands. They shot multiple curses over here. Harry yelled "Shields up!" and quickly cast a shield to defend the ones who were by him. Ginny and Dean threw up shields but it didn't look like they were going to hold. "Send curses back" Harry told the ones by him. Since most were 1st, 2nd and 3rd years mostly tickling charms and leg lockers were thrown. Harry and Katie were sending over stunners.
Against the barrage of attacks the Slytherins themselves erected shields. The others houses erected shields or crawled under the table to avoid deflected spells. Though none as powerful as Harrys. Some Slytherins were still able to fire curses however. Most at Ginny and Dean. Harry ran out of his shield. Now the Slytherin fire was directed at him. Harry shouted "Leve Escudos!"(take away shield) and "Potente Multiplo Stupefy"(multiple powerful) in quick session. First a blue wave of light crashed into the Slytherins shields, knocking most out, then multiple red beams shot out of his wand and straight into the Slytherins.
After his stunners hit the Slytherins along with the barrage of spells and curses the other Gryffindors were sending, Dumbledore finally stood up. "Enough!" The Gryffindors and Slytherins lowered their wands and the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws got out from under the table or dropped their shields.
"Revive you house mates!" the Slytherins went around taking off the charms and awaking their comrades. The Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws doing the same to the few of theirs that were hit. "Teachers take care f your houses! I want to finish breakfast in peace! Mr. Potter take away the shield!" Harry waved his wand and the shield disappeared.
Professor McGonagall, Hagrid, Sirius and Remus all came over. None of the other house liked the fact that Gryffindor had five professors on their side. Even though McGonagall was strict she still showed a little bit of favor to her house and Dumbledore "refused" to take sides, they all knew how much he cared about the Dream Team(a.k.a.: Golden Trio, Gryffindor Trio, Infamous Trio, Golden Gryffindors and every other name the world has come up for them.) And everyone knew Professor Black was Potter's godfather and Professor Lupin was just as close. They also knew that Hagrid and the Gryffindors got on well.
"Bloody hell Harry!" Sirius said excitedly.
"Mr. Potter explain yourself!" Professor McGonagall said.
"Just self defense!" Harry replied.
"But you still attacked a student" McGonagall said.
"Yeah so Snape is rewarding his house" Harry pointed to where the house points were displayed an saw the Slytherins rise 50 points.
Sirius spoke up loudly. "5 points from each Slytherin who attack fellow class mates unprovoked."
The Slytherins lost over 200 points. Snape opened his mouth. "300 points..." he was interrupted by Dumbledore however.
"Professor Snape keep quiet. You shouldn't of rewarded you house for that attack in the first place. You should be lucky Professor Black only took away that much points."
"Yeah we all knew if it was us Gryffindors you would take away 100 for each student!" Harry said loudly.
"Mr. Potter!" Dumbledore said warningly. Harry grinned sheepishly in return. The teachers returned to the Staff table and Harry finished his breakfast. He stepped out of the Great Hall and started to walk up the staircases but was stopped by a drawling voice.
"You think your so tough Potter. If we fought in a real duel, outside of school I would kill you"
"Alright then Malfoy. After midnight, you and me in the Forbidden Forest" Harry said.
"Are you crazy Potter. I thought the centaurs are violent and a threat to people!"
"Alright your to scared I understand" Harry said and he walked away. Draco sad their fuming. He was not to scared to do anything! He was a Malfoy! Potter would learn to respect him. Malfoy stormed away angrily.
Harry grinned. He went to Remus's office. Sirius, Ron, Hermione, Remus and Aunt Michelle were all going over to Potter Manor. Harry wanted to see where his dad and aunt grew up. He was told it was gigantic. His aunt told him that there were many wards around the house.
They apparated onto a small road. It was on a small strip of land that looked to be as wide as a four-lane highway. The road winded a little until Harry saw a big spot of land farther away, Something big appeared to be in the middle of it and a forest surrounded it.
When they reached the part where the small strip of land met larger piece of land, they found a gate. The gate blocked the whole view and you couldn't see past it because it was a solid, black, humongous gate! There was a crest on the middle of the gate. The crest was split in half. It had the Gryffindor lion on the right side, a crown on the left. In the background was the letter P.
Aunt Michelle pushed open the gate. Behind it Harry saw a huge amount of land. Farther down their was a big house, a mansion. Harry walked towards the house, wishing there was a shorter way to get to the house that looked to be a mile away. Ron kept saying "wow" at everything he saw.
Finally when they reached the 3 story house, Harry opened the door. They were in a big hallway. It had dark wood paneling and a dark blue rug. Harry glanced over to his left and saw a map of the house and outside. Their was a library, study, kitchen, dining hall, den, living room, lounge, game room, 3 water closets, 10 extra rooms and 4 offices on the first floor. There was a dueling chambers and a potions lab in the basement. The 2nd and 3rd floor consisted of 50 bedrooms and 35 bathrooms. Outside there was 2 Quidditch pitches, a lake, a pool, some greenhouses and over 50 acres of open land. On two sides of the to the East and North was a forest on the other sides of the forest was a cliff to the East and a beach to the north. South was where the gate was, leading to the tiny strip of land. The last side had a hill leading down to a beach. Past the beach was the ocean. All together the Potter Manor had about 100 acres of land.
Michelle explained to Harry that a tribe of centaurs lived in the forest. If anyone managed to find the place and wanted to attack from the forest the centaurs, who were loyal to the Potters would attack the intruders. Many other animals such as unicorns, nifflers, abraxans, hippogriffs, bowtruckles, fairies, snidgets, thestrals, and wood nymphs lived with in the forest. At the bottom of the lake was a tribe of merpeople. Who also traveled into the ocean by the secret underwater passage there.
Harry was running from room to room in order to see it all. When he reached the study he found a tapestry on the wall. It was like the one at Sirius's house that showed his family tree. Except this one was the Potter family tree. Harry looked at it. It went as far back as Romeo Potter, the first Britain Minister of Magic. Harry looked at the family tree. There was a name that looked like it was blown off.
"Who was that?" Harry asked pointing to the name.
"Oh. Well you see Harry basically all families have a dark wizard somewhere in there history. The Potters actually had two. Both were really dark but they didn't follow Voldemorts views on Muggles and Muggle-borns. They thought that Muggle technology would be great mixed with magic. The first one was my Great, great Grandmother, Susan Potter. She teamed up with another dark wizard from Germany named Hanz Frikson. They weren't as well known as Voldemort or anything because they both died during the middle of the war. An American wizard named Nathan Adams killed them both. The other, your Great Grandfather or my Grandfather, Jeremiah Potter, was the darkest part of the Potter history. Harry, Jeremiah Potter also went by the name of Grindewald." Hermione and Ron gasped. Harry just looked at her for a second.
"So I'm related to Grindewald?" Harry asked.
"Yup" Michelle said.
"Is that it because I saw a portrait of Godric Gryffindor and I look like him a little bit." Harry said uncertainly.
"Yes you are related to Godric Gryffindor Harry. From my moms side of the family though. Not the Potter side. James got most of his looks from our mom. The hair actually runs in the Potter family. All your sons will have it!" Michelle explained.
"So I'm related to Gryffindor and Grindewald? Anyone else?"
"Um Dumbledore is your great, great uncle" Ron and Hermione gasped again.
"Great, great uncle?" Harry questioned.
"Yeah he was my grandmothers, the one who married Jeremiah Potter, older brother. 15 years older to be exact."
"Oh um Harry" Remus started quietly. "I don't know if your going to want to hear this but your mom wasn't a muggle-born"
"Wait what do you mean she wasn't a muggle-born?" Harry asked bewildered.
"Your mom's family had a memory charm placed on them when your mom was a baby. Petunia is actually a squib, Your mom's real last name was O'Flaniggans, a long line of Irish purebloods. Your grandma was a heir of Slytherins. Harry you, Petunia and Dudley are all heirs of Slytherin"
Harry sat their. Silent for a few minutes. Shock was clearly shown on his face, Ron and Hermione gasped again, this time louder and Harry wished they would shut up. 'So I'm related to Snakeface. With quite a distance between thankfully. Will I turn out evil? Am I going to follow in Slytherins footsteps? No, no after all I'm related to Gryffindor!' Soon Harry came back to his senses and they continued the tour, although quieter.
Soon they finally left the house and started to walk back to the gate. Harry glanced around the area, deep in thought. "What wards and spells are around here?" Harry asked.
"Well let's see. Anti-Apparation, muggle repelling, unplotable, anti-portkey, and a lot of others I can't remember." Michelle answered.
Harry nodded his head and took out both his wands. He pointed one at the sky and the other at the ground. "Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro." Harry chanted. "Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro! Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro! Proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro! proteggere questo luogo da tutto il che nudo il marchio scuro" Harry yelled. A burst of bright white light burst from Harry and surrounded all of Potter Manor and surrounding area. Harry collapsed due to magical exhaustion.
Man in this story Harry does a complete 180 with girls. I mean in OotP he was shy and didn't know what to do. In mine he is assertive and knows exactly what to do. Go Harry. It's your birthday!
Oh when I made Harry used the "Leve Escudos!" spell, I made him go out of his shield because if he didn't his shield would take the blow.
Also I make Harry leave school a lot to do all these things is because they all fit in later on in the story. The action in the story is coming up. Prepare for a lot of battle scenes.
I get all my info on Harry Potter from www.hp-lexicon.org I read about the griffin and it is different from how I described it but I'm gonna stick with my way.
