Chapter 7
"Harry who was that girl who tried to hug you when Lara did?" Ash asked as they were walking back up to the school for lunch after getting dressed. They were now wearing Muggle cloths.
Lara was wearing a denim hotpants and a small yellow shirt that she had tied in a knot half way to show her mid-drift, and her long hair was loose around her head. Ash had jeans on and a blue t-shirt. While Bron was wearing cargo's and a red t-shirt. Harry was in jeans and a black tank top. They had all decided that they would wear the different house colours to help the students with their names and if all else failed by their ancestry.
"Yeah, that's what I want to know too." Lara said. "That's Hermione. I've told you her about her before." Harry replied. "And what's she to you," Lara asked. "If I didn't know better I'd say you were Jealous, Hufflepuff." "I your dreams Merlin." But under her breath she said, "yes". "What was that Hufflepuff?" "I said 'in your dreams'," "No after that." "I didn't say anything!" "Oooo, I think Lara's got a crush on Harry, don't you think Ash?" Bron said, watching Lara blush. "Definitely." Ash replied, giggling with Bron. "Well so what it she does it's non of your business, and maybe I do too." Harry said. "What's that suppose to mean?" Bron said confused,
Instead of answering he grabbed Lara by the shoulder, turned her around, gave her a passionate kiss, then continued to walk towards the school leaving the three girls to stare either in shock or with a surprised look in her eyes. "Are you girls coming or aren't you hungry?" He yelled back. The girls finally came back to their senses and ran to catch up giggling as they ran.
The girls caught up just as Harry got to the Entrance hall. They walked into the Great hall together and saw that an extra table had been added at the fount of the room for their group and Erin was waiting for them.
As they walked down the rows of students some turned and asked Harry if he was Ok, Obviously, as always, the incident at the lake had gone round the whole school in the time it had taken them to get changed. As Professor Dumbledore had said to Harry in his first year, 'It is a complete secret, so naturally, the whole school knows.'
When they got to the table and the school had gone back to their lunch rather then watching the heirs Lara turned to Harry and asked to thing that had been bugging her. "What was that about in the forest." She whispered so that the other girls didn't hear her and try to eves drop. "I felt like teaching those girls a lesson, and to tell the truth I have wanted to do that for awhile but didn't have the guts." Harry replied as he eat his lunch. "You not have the guts? Never!" She said in a mock scandalized voice. Harry laughed, "Well then you have forgotten what happened just before we met." His eyes now had a far away, sad look.
Lara frowned, she remembered. She also remembered what had happened after he had aloud Erin to fix his wounds, that day had changed her life so much.
Flashback
"That's the best I can do for now, and I think you should all go to sleep for a few hours," Erin said as she stood and stepped back from Harry. "No. I want to know what We are doing here and who you are." Harry demanded. "Yeah, you said you would explain when he got here," Lara said pointing at Harry, "and he is here now so explain."
"Very well, now some of this is going to be confusing to Ashleigh and Bronwyn as they aren't Witches, so Harry, Lara you are just going to have to bare with me." Erin sighed then turned to Bron and Ash.
"I know that what has happened to you two so far has been very confusing and I am going to explain this to you so that you can understand. I am sure that you have both heard about Magic in Fairy tales and in the Movies but you have always been told that it is a fantasy, right?" Ash and Bron nodded. "Well it isn't a fantasy, it is very much real." "So you mean to tell us that there is magic in the world, like a bunch of people waving their wands around?" Erin nodded, "Yeah right, next you'll be telling me there are Dragons and Vampires and things like that." Bron said in a disbelieving voice. "Yes" Erin said simply.
"OK now I know you are crazy, there is no such thing." Bron said stubbonly. "That's what I thought when I was told but now I go to Hogwarts and with all the random stuff that has happened to me I have to believe it." Harry told her. "and I grew up in a house that as you saw is completely against magic, so it was drilled into me that there was no such thing. My Uncle said that the wind had caught me when I ended up on the school roof, and I may be skinny for my age but even I'm not that light!"
Bron and Ash still didn't want to believe it. "Prove it," Ash said, "Change the sofa into a pig or something!" Erin nodded to Lara who took out her wand and transfigured to sofa into a pig, unfortunately for Harry he was still sitting on it and the pig tried to run away taking him with it. The girls giggled for a few minutes while Harry tried to stop the pig but only succeed in falling off making to girls giggle even more, even Erin cracked a smile.
After Lara changed to pig back into it's rightful shape, Erin looked at the two Muggles girls again, "Do you believe me now?" "OK, so there is such thing as magic but why keep it a secret? SO many people could benefit from it." Ash asked. "Well that is the problem the magic government think that non-magical people would be envious of people that can do magic and would want magical solutions for all of their problems." Erin explained. Ash nodded in understanding "So there is magic in the world whats it got to do with us?" Harry and Lara started to concentrate more now.
"OK well through history there have been some very powerful wizards that have done amazing things. There are 5 though that were the most powerful. They were the Hogwarts founders, Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin. The 5th, you to may have heard of," she said nodding to Ash and Bron, "was Merlin." "Merlin? You mean as in 'King Arthur and the Knights of the round table', Merlin?" Ash asked.
"Yes" Erin continued, Move these five were the most powerful wizards that the world has ever seen. Now as they all had children they all have heirs even though they lived 1000 years ago. Harry you know who one of them is." Everyone turned to Harry. Who nodded "Voldemort."
Lara, like everyone else in the magical world would, fell out of her chair, "Are you mad, Don't say the name." Ash and Bron turned to her confused, "What's wrong with saying this persons name?" Bron asked, "It's just a name!" Harry sighed, "There is nothing wrong with saying the name but everyone in the wizarding world thinks that if you say his name he will come and kill them or something." "Then why do you say it?" Bronwyn asked. Harry stood up and walked over to a window tha was in the corner of the room and watched the rain that was falling outside, "Because he is trying to kill me anyway." He said in a almost inaudible voice. He rested his scared forehead against the cool window, calming the headache that had started to creep up on him.
Erin and Lara looked sadly at Harry while Bron and Ash exchanged a look, "Life isn't treating you very well is it?" Bron said, breaking the silence that had fallen on the group. Harry laughed weakly, "Yeah you could say that." "Do you mind telling us why he is after you?" Ash asked timidly. Harry plaused, "Well your probably going to find out somehow anyway.But one thin before I tell you don't interrupt me for any reason its hard enough as it is. OK?" They all nodded.
He took a deep breath, "OK, when I was one, my parents went into hiding because Voldemort was out to kill them, I don't know why so don't ask. Anyway they used a spell that uses another person to stop anyone from finding them without this person's permission, this person is called the Secret Keeper.
"Because everyone thought that the Secret Keeper would be my parents best friend, Sirius Black, my parents instead used another of my fathers friend, Peter Pettigrew."
Harry held up a hand when Lara started to object, "You will understand when I am finished."
"But instead of keeping the secret Peter or Wormtail as he is now known as, ran straight to Voldemort and told him where my parents where. Voldemort went straight to my house and killed my parents but my mother begged for my life so when Voldemort tried to kill me it backfired and hit him but because he was almost immortal he didn't die. His spirit lived on and disappeared.
"Now that doesn't seem so amazing but the fact that it was an unblock able curse the wizarding world decided I need a nickname," Harry winced as he said this and Lara failed to stifle a laugh. "So now I am known by half the world as The-Boy-Who-Lived." Ash and Bron giggled to then stopped and apoligised. "No it's fine I think its rather embarrassing, and annoying."
"Anyway, after that I was sent to live with the Dursley's because they were my only living family even though my parents wanted me to be in the charge of my Godfather, Sirius Black." He paused, "I really don't know why, Sirius never acts his age, he is still a child at heart." Lara was looking at him in shock because of his statement, after all Black was a known criminal.
"But Sirius went after Wormtail because he knew he must of betrayed us. But when Peter was cornered he blew up the street behind him. Making it seem like Sirius had kill him. 12 other people were kill that day, but Wormtail got away, he cut off his middle finger and changed into a rat before running into the sewers. Sirius was arrested and sent to Azkaban prison without trial for the murder of 13 people and being a Death Eater." He paused and seeing Ash and Bron's puzzled expression said, "Voldemort's followers are called Death Eaters. Part of Voldemort's twisted sense of humour."
"So I lived with the Dursley's for ten years because Dumbledore thought that fame would have gone to my head, I am actual glad that he did keep me away from all that I wouldn't have coped. But instead I lived in a Cupboard under the stairs till I was eleven and I was kicked around because of my uncles problems in life. He threatened that if I told anyone he would kill me so I kept it to myself. I didn't understand why random people in strange cloths kept coming up to me in the street and bowing or shaking my hand. They even locked me in my room after my first year to try to stop me going to Hogwarts.
"Then a few weeks before my eleventh birthday I started to receive letters but my uncle would take them and destroy them, Owls started to appear in the back garden and in the end after the kitchen had been filled with letters. The Dursley's ran away to a hut in the middle on the sea and then Hagrid told me about Hogwarts and Voldemort and Magic. So I went to Hogwarts.
"In my first year Dumbledore hid the Philosophers Stone, a stone that turns any metal into gold and if the elixir that it produces is drunk by a person then they become immortal, in the School and Voldemort tried to take it, But my friends, Hermione and Ron, and me stopped him. If he had succeeded then he would have come back in full power.
"In my second year a diary left behind by Voldemort as a teen with a memory of him in its pages, was given to a young girl who wrote her deepest secrets in it. This gave the memory enough power to come out of the diary and nearly destroyed to school. But I killed his pet snake, the Basilisk, A snake that can kill you if you look into its eyes. Then destroyed the diary so the memory died. So again I had stopped Voldemort's plan.
"The in my Third year Sirius Black escaped from Azkaban and I found out about Wormtail's true personality but even though I could have just let Sirius and Lupin, another of my fathers friends, kill Wormtail I didn't I thought that going to Azkaban then he escaped and went strait to Voldemort and helped him to regain his strength.
"Then last year Voldemort had one of his Death Eaters impersonate a professor at Hogwarts and entered me into the Triwizard Tournament, in the last task of the Tournament, Cedric, another contestant, and I got to the Cup at the same time and so we decided to take it together. It was a Portkey. We were transported to the Graveyard where Voldemort's Father is buried. Wormtail killed Cedric and tied me to a head stone nearby." Harry took a deep breath before continuing.
"Wormtail used Bone from Voldemort's Father's grave, cut off his own hand and my blood to bring Voldemort back to life. Voldemort summoned all his Death Eaters and then we duelled, I escaped taking Cedric's body with me back to Hogwarts. That was just a few months ago. But the Minister of Magic won't believe me so he encouraged rumours that I am insane and Voldemort in out their now gaining power to strike a wizarding world that isn't ready."
Harry turned back to the window and continued to stare out into the rain. The group stayed quite letting the information sink in. "So you have spent your life running from either the Dursley's or Voldemort?" Bron asked. Harry just nodded.
After a few more minutes of silence Harry turned to Erin, "I still don't get why we are hear." "Well OK as I was saying before the heirs of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Slytherin and Merlin would be very strong if they had the right training and that is why you are here to be trained." "Wait hold up for just one sec, are you saying that we are the heirs of these powerful wizards?" Lara asked. "Yes, you are the heirs of Merlin, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw." Erin said. "Oh just when I thought my life couldn't get any more complicated." Harry said. Erin smiled at him. "Sorry."
"So who is who?" Lara asked. "Well you're the heir of Hufflepuff. Bronwyn is the heir of Gryffindor, Ashleigh is Ravenclaw and Harry is the heir of Merlin. Now I think that you all need to go to bed you all look exhorted. Your rooms are though that door over there." She pointed to the corner where a door appeared. "You will all be able to work out which room is which so of you go, call me if you need anything." With that she disappeared.
Harry walked towards the door and the girls followed. Behind it was a common room and 4 more doors. As they walked towards the different doors they could see different symbols on them. Lara tried to open the one with a eagle on it but it wouldn't budge. "Oh just great the doors are locked," she said after they had all tried a different door. "No wait what symbols are on each door?" Harry asked. "Lion" Ash said. "Snake" Bron said "Eagle" Lara said "Ok mine is a Badger. Lara you come to this door, Ash you go to the Eagle, Bron the Lion and I'm the snake." Harry said. "But I thought you were Merlin not Slytherin?" Lara said. "Just try the doors." "Fine" they all tried the door they were assigned to and they all opened except for Harry's. "Why isn't yours opening?" Bron asked. "Because I haven't asked it to" he replied. "What you can't ask a door to open." Harry turned back to the door and stared at the snake then when he tried to talk again instead of English a hiss came out and the door in front of him opened. Then he turned back to them he hissed again, then shook his head, "Sorry that sometime s happens, I can speak to snakes so I told the snake on the door to open the door. But now I am going to bed, Night. With that he went inside and closed it behind him. Leaving 3 shocked girls behind him.
End Flashback.
Lara looked over at Harry and thought about how much he had grown up since then not physically but mentally. "Well maybe you didn't have the guts then but now you do so why now why not a few months ago?" She said. "Because a few months ago you would have had a fit." He said between mouthfuls. "No a wouldn't I would have. slapped you and run away.so maybe your right but I would have calmed down." "Yeah but I didn't like the slap idea." "Well now you have kissed me I want more!" "Really well then why didn't you say so." With that invitation they forgot about everyone else in the room and started having a snogging session in the middle of the Great hall.
Soon the whole room was watching them and it wasn't till Bron magically dropped a bucket of water on their heads that they realise making them both go bright red and excused them selves before running out of the hall hand- in-hand. Followed by catcalls and whistles.
