Harry Potter & the Return to Honeychurch Institute of Magic
By Darkmoore
"HARRY!!"
Chapter Eight: The Conference Continues
Harry turned to run out of the room when he was tackled by a five year old boy, sending both to the floor.
"Harry, I had a bad dream." Tommy cried
On instinct Harry picked the boy up and sat them both down on the chair was just sitting in and asked, "What was the dream about Tommy?"
"You're not gonna send me away to some stupid old school are you?" the boy sobbed.
"Tommy, what are you talking about? What school?"
"In my dream, you were thinking of sending me far away to a school and you weren't ever gonna come and get me or see me ever again." Tommy sobbed more.
"Tommy, it was just a bad dream." Harry said soothingly and began to rock the boy in his arms. However, Harry never denied it and Tommy knew it.
After Harry held Tommy for awhile he carried him back up stairs with Nanny Talmadge following. Harry went back down to let Dobby and Winky know about the dinner guests he was expecting that night and to allow Tommy to get cleaned up.
"Harry Potter, you's is not sending little Master Tommy way, sir." Dobby said to Harry. "He is needing you he is."
Harry sighed, "What am I do with him when I go to school to teach Dobby? I have to work."
"Dobby is taking care of him for Harry Potter."
"Tommy needs to be around other children."
"The school is full of children it is."
Harry was beginning to fear he was loosing this argument, but responded, "The students are older than he is, Tommy needs to be around children his own age."
"Master Harry?" Winky interjected, "isn't you saying that Master Tommy didn't likes the other children and that he only likes you?"
"See Harry Potter?" Dobby said folding his arms over his small chest, "you's is having to keep him for his own sake and you's own good."
"Winky?" Harry asked, "is there anyway I can win this argument with Dobby?"
"No Master Harry, I is thinking you's not."
"Damn."
Later that night, after Ron and Hermione arrived to have dinner at Grimmauld Place, everyone was sitting to the table to eat.
"Where's the demon spawn?" Ron asked.
"Ron." Hermione said and smacked his arm.
"Ouch! What?"
Hermione shot daggers at him with her eyes and said, "Don't call him that."
"Tommy and Nanny Talmadge will be down in a few minutes' guys." Harry said while chuckling at their antics.
Tonks and Remus who were listening, also were laughing at Ron and Hermione.
"So when are you going to get married? You already act like it." Tonks asked them.
Both Ron and Hermione shot her narrowed eyed looks, which made the others laugh.
Remus chuckled further, and asked, "So Harry how is the conference going?"
"Slow and boring, however, I did find out who Weatherby's new girlfriend is."
"Who?" Ron asked and then Harry told them about what happened that morning.
"Eww! She's older than mum." Ron exclaimed as Nanny Talmadge entered the room with Tommy, who took a seat next to Harry.
The next morning, Harry arrived at the conference hall at the ministry early. He wanted to get an early start to the day and he wanted to be there when everyone else arrived.
"Professor Potter, good to see you this morning," said one of the panelists from yesterday.
"Good morning, um?"
"Rudella, Professor Rudella St. James."
"Call me Harry then," he said to her with a smile.
She smiled back at him as more panelists began to file into the conference room, including Minister Bones and Albus Dumbledore.
"Ah, Good morning Harry, I wondered where you got to this morning." Albus said.
"Were you looking for me?" Harry asked.
"I thought I might try walking in with you again this morning to see if anyone would notice again. Alas, I fear it would have been the same outcome as yesterday," chucked Albus with his eyes twinkling.
Amelia laughed and went to her place at the podium and began to speak to the group, "Alright, can we get started please?"
"Minister Bones, I don't believe everyone is here yet this morning." Professor Ogden Pelham announced.
"Yes, Mr. Weasley will not be joining us for the remainder of the conference and Madame Ramsden is running a little late this morning, she'll be here momentarily." Amelia responded and was about to say something when she was interrupted again.
"Amelia, with Mr. Weatherby, I mean Weasley's absence from this conference, can I assume that the goal has now changed? I know this was his pet project to merge magical schools together." Harry asked innocently.
Several of the panelists were looking at Minister Bones expectantly.
"Actually, no, the focus has not changed, Professor Potter. We are still going to cover the procedure in which the individual schools are going to be evaluated; however, the actual merging and foreclosure will be put off until the evaluations are complete."
"What an excellent idea." Albus said and continued, "I, for one, would feel it my personal duty to make sure this evaluations took as long as possible; to make sure the entire school is properly gone over. In fact I think it should take an entire year per school for these evaluations to be completed."
"I second that motion," Professor Yasinov stated plainly.
"This project, you realize, will take several years to complete." Amelia said to the group.
"Of course," Madame Fineburch said, "We can't rush into a rash decision like this, and we should have a thorough evaluation performed on each school, individually. Then once all the findings have been compiled then this panel should reconvene and study the matter further, at that time."
"Well then are we all agreed?" Amelia asked and everyone raised their hands. Amelia quickly counted and said, "Any apposed?" and no one raised their hands and Amelia smiled proudly.
"One more thing we should discuss," Harry said. "How large of a committee can we afford to send out to the schools?"
"Well, I know that the budget for the Department of Magical Education cannot afford a large staff to work on this project, it would have to be done by one or two people. This of course, would make the evaluations take longer," responded one the members of that department.
"Oh I think I have the perfect person for the job." Amelia said. "Now let's decide on how this evaluation should be performed."
Late that evening, a very exhausted and over worked Harry returns home to Number 12, Grimmauld Place to find chaos reining in the house.
"I've had it! I want him out of this house tonight!" Tonks bellowed.
"Tonks, be reasonable, you know I can't do that. We'll have to wait for Harry to come home." Remus tried to be reasonable with her. Apparently she wasn't listening.
"Reasonable?" Tonks asked incredulously, "Why should I be reasonable? I have done my best to play along with this farce, but I have reached my limits. He has to go!"
"What's going on here?" Harry asked, afraid to truly find out.
Tonks turned to see harry standing in the doorway of the parlor and said, "That 'mini-me' version of Voldemort has got to go! I will not stay in this house another minute with him."
"Mini-me?" asked an impressed Harry, "Since when do you watch Muggle films?"
"I go ever so often for hair ideas and don't change the subject."
"Alright, so what has Tommy done to incur the wrath of the terrible Tonks?" Harry asked wearily.
Remus answered for her, "Nothing as far as I can tell."
"Harry, you said he would only be here for a couple of days, but it's been longer than that now and its time for him to go back to that cottage you rented for them." Tonks plainly stated.
Defeated Harry just exhaled and walked out of the room and went upstairs.
When Harry reached his room, he walked in, set down his satchel and began to change his clothes. He was tired and now he had to deal with Tonks' ultimatum and get Tommy and Nanny Talmadge out of the house without hurting anyone's feelings.
As Harry stood in front of his wardrobe he began to pull out his favorite Muggle clothes, a t-shirt and jeans, when the door to his room opened and in flew Tommy.
"Harry?" Tommy sobbed looking for Harry.
"Hey Tommy, what's wrong?" Harry asked as he bent down to his knees.
Upon seeing Harry, Tommy began to cry uncontrollably and begged, "Please, please, please do-don't send me to-to-to jail. I'll be good, I promise."
"Jail? No one is going to send you to jail, I promise."
"That mean lady with the funny hair said I belonged in prison, I don't wanna go to prison, I'll be good. I won't steal no more biscuits from Winky anymore I promise." Tommy wailed.
Harry picked Tommy up and hugged him and said, "Don't you worry, you're not going to prison and you can have as many biscuits as you like."
"Really?"
"Really!"
Then Tommy sniffed and buried his head into Harry neck. Against Harry's better judgment, he was starting to care for this boy.
"Now Tommy, Vesta is coming back tomorrow morning and then we are going to go on our holiday together." Harry said and Tommy sniffed. "You and Nanny are going to go back to the cottage I rented to live while we are gone, and if you've been a good boy, you can come back here with me while I go to my second conference."
"How long will you be gone?" Tommy asked.
"A fortnight."
Flustered Tommy asked, "How long is that?"
Harry smiled at the boy and said, "Two weeks."
"Two weeks? That's forever Harry," the boy complained.
Later that night after everyone had calmed down and went to bed, Harry was lying in bed trying to read a book, but sleep had almost taken him and he was trying his best to finish the chapter before his eyes closed for good.
"Harry?" came a whisper from his door.
Looking over to the open door, Harry says, "Tommy? Aren't you supposed to be in bed?"
"I can't sleep; can I come in and stay with you until I get sleepy again?"
Harry smiled sleepily, "okay," and Tommy scrambled up in bed with him.
Soon the boy was sound asleep with his head on Harry's chest as he tried to finish his book. However, Harry put the book down, took off his glasses and watched Tommy for a moment before he too was fast asleep.
Harry had no idea how long he had slept before he and Tommy were awoken to…
"HARRY JAMES POTTER? What are you doing with that boy in bed with you?"
"Vesta?"
To Be Continued…
Author's Note: To everyone who reviewed, thanks again...
athenakitty wrote Will Tom get into Harry's heart? Who's the screamer? Will Percy come clean? What will have Harry reconsider his idea? Did the goblins go through the Malfoy estate for all of the Black's things?
Answer - It was Tommy. Athena honey, the goblin question is for the other story, not this one, don't confuse me, it's soooooo easily done :D As for the rest, read the story, you'll find out.
tigerlily98 wrote Good as always! I need to find out who yelled, FAST! Please update soon thnx much.
Answer - It was Tommy.
TuxedoMac wrote Now this was a great chapter becuse it had that twist on who Percy was in love with now that is somthing different I will say. I like how Tommy is coming along and whats going going to be done about his schooling will help change him no matter where he goes.
Answer - Just wait pumpkin, there's still more.
Wytil wrote Harry once again has flipped over a department in the government. Percy just can't seem to get his zipper unzipped towards the proper person since Penelope.
Answer - Who'd have Percy? Also, it seems to be the same department over and over and over again. Lastly, I don't want to think about Percy's zipper. ewww!
kensai2 wrote Can Percy sing "Here's to you, Mrs. Robinson"? What happened to Penelope? I never new knew Percy was the lady killer. Let Harry, keep Tommy in his care it would be so theraputic for all involved. Imagine Tommy growing up to be a mudblood loving, S.P.E.W. card carrying functional adult. The thought is such a warm fuzzy.
Answer - I don't know what ever happened to Penelope, she seems to have disappeared sometime around Goblet of Fire. As for Tommy, well, you'll see.
barbarataku wrote This is my first review of Honeychurch. I found it yesterday late in the evening. I am so glad so much was done before I discovered you because it would have been hard to wait. I really LOVE warm and fuzzy. I think you have Harry portrayed perfectly. He is the type of person who would feel the need tao Pay Back for all of the Damage he feels like he caused. You have excellent new ideas for story lines and characters. I hope you find time to share with us.
Answer - I'm so glad you found the sequel to the original story also (she wrote more than one feedback). There is a prequel out there also, that you might like and a side story called the Adventures of Will Beagle, Boy Wizard. I hope you enjoy them also. :D
Tanydwr wrote (and I love hearing from you) Aww, Tommy's so cute! I can't help it! Yes, my giggling is your fault. There may be some problems with genetics in there somewhere, but if you make me giggle... This is a good chapter. I'm not sure if Harry really will be able to take Tommy to a school. I think he's going to have to stay! As for your plans... Well, not much point asking about them, is there? You'll never tell me!
Answer - My plans, okay, how about this... Harry turns gay and he and Seamus fall in love? Oh wait, did you hear that? Thats the sound of Dragonclawz retching in the background. :)
krysalys73 wrote Your story just keeps getting better and better, my friend. Off to read the rest of your chappies, as I have been denied internet access too friggin long due to moving woes. sigh Only got the phone lines up and connected at the new place on Monday...
Answer - I wondered where you had disappeared to, I thought you had gotten bored with my story.
krysalys73 also wrote Also, seems like Harry's a little fond of little Tommy despite his monumentally confused thoughts and feelings. Little lad's a helluva lot like Harry was at that age in that situation...
Answer - As we've seen in the first story, Harry loves children, so he does feel for Tommy, however, Tommy was once Voldemort and the dark wizard destroyed Harry's life. He's stuck between his heart and his head.
krysalys73 wrote once again Weatherby getting his freak on with a superior!?! How much older than Percy is this chick anyway? Anyway, loving where you're taking this. And Harry will always be such the troublemaker... snicker That's mah boy...
Answer - The chick in question would be about the same age as Percy's parents. Since most heads of department we've seen so far are about the same age as Arthur and Molly (or older), it's a safe bet that would be about right. :D Also Harry is the only child of the Marauders.
Cathy-Ann wrote Well now, Tom Riddle has a chance at being the same way harry potter was raised...Oop's he already had a loveless upbringing and turned into a monster. Maybe if he had a loving family type upbringing he would not become a monster, again. Harry was raised in a brutal degrading abused manner and yet he turned out okay...but he had friends to love him from age 11 onward. Perhaps is the young riddle has the same kind of support group he will not become a monster, again...or might never have becomne one the first time around..
Answer - You must be new, I don't remember getting a review from you before. I'm not done with Tommy yet, but Harry will be going on holiday without him soon.
