Chapter 16 - Happy Birthday Wendie!

Rex ran happily to greet Harry as he approached Hagrid's Hut. Harry patted the dog and smiled.

"Hello Rex. Having fun today?"

Rex replied with a bark as he waved his tail excitedly. Harry saw Hagrid coming from the back of his cottage.

"Hi Hagrid!"

"'ello, 'aryy! Where've yeh been?" Hagrid said.

"I was busy showing Lia around."

"O' I see. Yeh wan' cuppa tea?" Hagrid asked and walked to his cottage.

Harry followed Hagrid inside the cottage and sat on the huge couch.

"Yeh comin' ter Wendell's birthday party?" Hagrid asked as he poured some tea in two big mugs.

"A birthday party?" Harry asked.

"Wolf wan's it ter be a surprise. 't's gonna be in the Grea' Hall." Hagrid said and gave Harry a mug.

"Oh, I guess I'll come. Any specific time?"

"At eigh'"

"I'll be there. Oh, I almost forgot. I'm writing to Ron that he can come and stay here for the rest of the summer." Harry said.

"Tha's won'erful! I a'ready miss him an' Hermi'ne. Yeh heard from her?"

"She's on a trip with her parents. She'll be back at the end of August. We might meet at Diagon Alley."

Wolf and Virginia were working on their surprise party plan in their room. They didn't go to the Great Hall for breakfast, and since Wolf can't live without filling his stomach, they asked Dobby to bring their breakfast to their room. Dobby didn't complain of course. He brought them breakfast and wished them a wonderful and a romantic day.

"This elf is so nice." Virginia said.

"Yeah, especially when it has to do with bringing food." Wolf said as he took a bite of a chicken leg.

Virginia smiled at him lovingly. "So, what else should we do? Dumbledore said that he will do the decoration, McGonagall will be responsible for the food."

"We need to tell everyone to be at the Great Hall before eight. And make sure that Wendie doesn't hear anything."

"Okay, Dumbledore, McGonagall and Hagrid already know. We still have to tell Remus, dad, professors Sprout, Flitwick and Snape. Oh, and should we invite that ghost teacher?"

"Maybe, I don't know. But since he's a teacher, I guess it would be a nice thing to do. I think we should invite everyone that's in the castle." Wolf said.

"Okay, and there's Harry and Lia. Did I miss anyone?"

"Wendell."

"Oh yeah, but what should I tell him?" Virginia asked.

"Just tell him that dinner is at eight. We don't want him to know that we're planing something."

"Okay, I'll go now and tell everyone about this."

"I'm coming too." Wolf said and they both left their room and went to invite everyone.

Wendell was sitting in front of the fireplace reading a book. Virginia and Wolf came to the common room and saw him.

"Hi Wendie!" Wolf said and headed to the portrait hole.

"Hi Wendell." Virginia said and followed Wolf.

"Hello." Wendell replied and looked at them as they left the common room. "Why didn't they say anything?" he said to himself and shrugged. "Oh well, maybe they don't know about today." He continued reading his book.

Wolf and Virginia invited everyone in the castle to Wendell's surprise party and asked them not to tell him anything. Dumbledore was excited about the idea of having a birthday party. He wished it was his birthday, but he knew that he was old for these things.

O o O o O

Sirius was having a difficult time while Lord Rupert was around. He kept telling him what to wear and kept changing Sirius' outfit every time Sirius tried something on.

"Your Majesty, this is too dark. You need something lighter." Lord Rupert said.

"I like black!" Sirius said.

"But it doesn't fit with your name! And the decorations are in light blue and white. I suggest that you wear your…"

"I am wearing black! My name doesn't have anything to do with colors!"

"It has!" Rupert gasped. "You're a member of the White family!"

"I'm n…" Sirius paused for a moment. He was a Black, but Wendell was a White, and that's what Lord Rupert meant. "Oh alright! You win! But I'm not wearing blue. I'll wear my white suit." He said finally.

Lord Rupert's smile went ear-to-ear. Everything was going to be as he planned. The guests were arriving already and the king should be down at the Ball Room to meet them.

"I will go downstairs now Your Highness. Please don't be late."

"I won't. Just get out of here!" Sirius said.

Lord Rupert left the room and Sirius sighed. He looked at his reflection in a mirror only to see Wendell staring back at him.

"Why did I get myself into this?" he asked himself.

"Because you're too kind and noble." Snow White said as she appeared behind him.

"I never thought that I was noble. In fact, no one did! Not even my friends!"

"Well, they didn't see the grown up Sirius." Snow White said.

"I'm not sure I can make it through this stupid ball."

"You'll do fine. And by the way, only Cinderella knows who you are."

"How come?" Sirius was surprised.

"Because she's Wendell's grandmother too, and I can't keep anything secret from her, especially if it concerns Wendell."

"Well, at least I'll feel comfortable around her."

"I'm sure you will. Just be careful not to tell anyone else about who you are."

"Alright." Sirius said and Snow White disappeared again.

He got up and took a last look at himself in the mirror. He adjusted his sword that was hanging from one side and then he walked out of the room.

"This is stupid!" he muttered to himself as he walked to the Ball Room.

Lord Rupert was there to meet him. "Your Majesty, please wait until I announce your arrival."

"Do you have to do that?"

"Of course!" Lord Rupert adjusted his purple suit and walked down the stairs that led to the Ball Room and stood at the middle of it. "May I have your attention please?" he started and everyone in the room looked at him in silence. "Ladies and Gentlemen, Kings and Queens, Prince and Princesses will you please welcome the man of the hour, King Wendell Winston Walter White!"

Sirius sighed and all the guests started to clap as he walked down the stairs, trying his best to smile at them. He was nervous, and his hands were sweating. He greeted everyone with a nod, and went to sit on the Throne chair.

"Please let this end quickly." He whispered to himself and looked around at the guests. There were different kinds of people. Humans (normal and dwarves), elves and fairies. One of the humans caught his attention. He was naked! Sirius' mouth dropped open at the sight, but Snow White's voice brought him back.

"He's the Naked Emperor's great grandson." She said.

"That stupid git who thought that his clothes are made from special fabrics? And they still believe in such thing?" Sirius thought to himself.

A woman walked close to him accompanied with her two maids. She looked beautiful as a twenty year old girl.

"Hello Sirius." She said in a whisper.

"How did you know who I am?" Sirius asked.

"Snow White told me." She smiled.

"You're Cinderella?"

"Yes."

"Wow! How come you never grow up? I mean… you look beautiful!" he said and blushed.

"Don't make the looks trick you child, I'm 200 years old now." Cinderella said.

"Blimey! And you still look like a twenty year old."

"Well, that's my secret." She smiled.

Everyone knew that Cinderella did magical surgery from time to time to keep her young look. But she always said that she just never got old and that's why she is still looking young. No one believed her, but they didn't argue with her about it either. She was a queen after all.

Sirius got up from his seat. "Would you honor me with this dance Your Majesty?" he said and bowed.

"Of course." Cinderella said and took his hand.

They danced together and after the song finished, Sirius escorted Cinderella to her seat. Then he danced with others too. He started to feel comfortable about being around this amount of royalties, as he was supposed to be one himself.

One woman caught his attention. Queen Red Riding Hood 3rd was there. She was talking to the elf queen. Sirius walked to her and bowed when she turned to face him.

"I'm glad that you came." He said with a smile.

"Happy Birthday Wendell." Queen Red said.

"Thank you. May I ask you for a dance?" he asked.

Queen Red rolled her eyes. "Alright, but just one dance."

"You got it." Sirius said as he held up his arm and Queen Red took it.

They walked to the center of the dance floor and danced.

"She looks beautiful." Sirius thought.

"Don't even think about it." Snow White's voice came.

"I wasn't thinking anything. I just said that she's beautiful."

"Just to let you know, Red isn't Wendell's type of woman. So, don't try and mess with his personal life." Snow White said.

"Alright grandma. I'll be careful."

The ball continued until midnight, and it was time for the guests to leave. Sirius stood at the entrance and thanked each one for coming. Cinderella decided to stay.

"I'm staying here tonight." She said.

"Sure, no problem."

She raise an eyebrow. "And Snow said that you can really act like him. Wendell would never reply back as you did." She whispered to him.

"Well, I'm not him after all. But I'm doing my best." He smiled and winked at her.

"I'll see you in the morning. Good night Wendell." Cinderella said and walked out of the room accompanied by her maids.

"Good night." Sirius replied and went to his room.

"I hope I wouldn't stay for a year to witness another birthday party!" he said as he lay on the bed, tired and feeling sleepy.

O o O o O

Wolf was excited. He pushed everyone inside the Great Hall and made sure that Wendell wouldn't show up before the mentioned time. As the last guest entered, which happened to be Severus Snape, Wolf closed the door and turned to everyone.

"Now, when he comes in we all are going to shout surprise, okay?" he asked them and they nodded. "Now, did anyone see him?"

"He was at the fourth floor walking in the corridors." Harry said. "He said that he was about to come here."

"Good. Now, get ready everyone! He might enter at any minute now."

The door opened and everyone shouted "SURPRISE!" but to their disappointment it was Tony.

"Sorry I'm late!" he said and closed the door after him.

"Try to be here in time Tony!" Wolf said.

"Shut up Wolf." Tony snapped and Wolf growled.

At that moment the door opened slowly and Wendell walked in.

"SURPRISE!!!" everyone shouted and with a wave of Dumbledore's hand little fireworks started in the air and the hall was filled with colorful little papers falling from the sky.

Wendell stood there, surprised by the event. Everyone came close to him and hugged him to wish him a happy birthday. He thanked them all.

"You didn't have to do this." He said.

"This is our present to you for the first birthday you spend it with us." Virginia said.

"That's so sweet of you Virginia. Thank you very much." Wendell gave her a hug.

"Happy Birthday Wendie!" Wolf said and gave Wendell a wolfish hug.

"Thank you Wolf." Wendell said as he tried to catch his breath. "Wolf, I can't breathe!"

"Cripes! Sorry." Wolf said and pulled back.

"No problem. Just try not to suffocate me for the next time."

"I'll keep that in mind." Wolf grinned.

They all sat around the large wooden table. Professor McGonagall waved her wand and the table was full of different types of food. And of course, there was a huge cake in the middle, which had a fountain at the top of it and water ran down magically without actually wetting the cake.

"I can get used to this!" Wolf said happily as he helped himself with roast meat.

Music started and everyone got up to dance. Wolf invited Virginia to the dance floor, Harry was with Lia, Professor Dumbledore invited Professor McGonagall, and Remus invited Madam Hooch.

Everyone seemed happy. Wendell was speaking to Tony and at that moment the music changed into a slow one.

Lia thanked Harry for the dance and she went to Wendell.

"May I ask the man of the day to honor me with a dance?" she asked.

Wendell blushed. "I think I was supposed to ask first."

"Well, time changes." Lia said with a smile.

Wendell got up and escorted Lia to the dance floor. They danced together and now, all eyes were on them. Dumbledore changed the lights in the hall into darker and it gave the Great Hall a cozy look.

"It's really amazing how they do that." Lia said, looking at the ceiling.

"And you're lucky that you're learning these stuff." Wendell replied.

"I guess so."

"I wonder what is going on at my palace now." Wendell said.

"They don't know you're here, right?"

"No, but Snow White said that she has sent someone to replace me."

"Well, let's just hope that he wouldn't ruin anything until you return." Lia said with a smile.

As the song ended Wendell bowed and held Lia's hand, and they walked to the table together.

"You look great together!" Wolf said and that made Lia blush slightly.

"Shut up Wolf!" Wendell said.

"Hey! What did I do?"

"Wolf, honey, try to keep your opinions to yourself sometimes." Virginia whispered to him.

Hagrid came holding a little box in his hands. He stood next to Wendell.

"Yer Majesty, this is a small presen'. I hope yeh like it." he said.

"Thank you Hagrid." Wendell said with a smile. "You didn't have to."

"Nah, I wan'ed ter give yeh summat." Hagrid said.

Wendell opened the box and saw a wizard chess set. "This is wonderful. Thank you Hagrid. I really like it."

"Yer welcome." Hagrid said with a blush.

Harry gave Wendell a book about Quidditch; Remus gave him another little box.

"This is from all the teachers." He said.

Wendell opened the box and saw a golden watch. It wasn't a normal watch. Instead of the numbers there were different signs.

"It shows your mood at the moment, and it would tell you if you're in danger. It can help you to choose between good or bad when you can't decide." Remus said.

"Thank you so much. I'm really happy to be here with you on this day." Wendell said and put the watch on his wrist. The center of the watch showed a text, which read: "Happy".

The party continued and everyone was having fun. When it was midnight, they started to go to their rooms one after another. Professor Dumbledore called Wendell to a side.

"Wendell, will you come to my office?" he asked.

"Sure professor." Wendell said and followed Dumbledore to his office.

As they entered, Dumbledore motioned to Wendell to sit, and he opened his wardrobe and took out a pensive and a wand.

"Wendell, I'd like to give you this." Dumbledore said as he put the pensive on the desk.

"What's that?" Wendell asked.

"It's called a pensive. It's similar to a diary, but instead of writing in it, you take your thoughts out of your memory and put it in the pensive with a wand. And this is going to be your wand."

Wendell took the wand and looked at it.

"It's made of willow and contains a single hair of a unicorn tail. Nine and a half inches. I ordered it especially for you. You can't do magic with it. It's made only to be used with this pensive. All you need to do is to put the tip of the wand on your forehead and then point it at the pensive."

"Thank you professor. I don't know what to say." Wendell said.

"You don't need to say anything Wendell. This is the least I can do for the grandchild of my best friend." Dumbledore smiled. "Use it wisely."

"I will." Wendell replied. "Thanks again. I think I should go to sleep now. This party took all my strength."

"I know what you mean. I'm tired myself. See you tomorrow."

"Good night professor." Wendell said and took his pensive and wand and went to his common room.

Everyone was asleep already. He went to his room and placed the pensive and the wand on the desk. Then he changed his clothes and went to bed.
