Chapter 8- Coming Together

Harry spent the next week contently being hugged and kissed and looked after. No

one could believe that they hadn't lost Harry. It seemed so surreal, but there he was,

as alive as ever. Over this week, Harry seamed very different. Not only was his

appearance different; he seemed happier, more relaxed, the happiest anyone had ever

seen him. Also his power seemed to have grown, which was amazing because he was

already quite powerful. When after a week had past, Draco got the courage to ask

Harry what had happened. Harry chuckled.

"It is a rather long story, but of course I will tell it to you. I guess what made this

happen is the fact that I am the Heir of Gryffindor, which you already know. Now,

even though my father was an heir, as was his grandfather, I am the one heir. It was

said in a prophecy written ages ago the One Heir of Gryffindor would meet with his

ancestor exactly two months after he arrived to a new life. And my getting sick was

the way for Godric to get in contact."

Ron shook his head in disbelief. "So your saying that Godric Gryffindor made you

deathly sick that you two could have a friendly chat with each other while make the

rest of us worry!"

Harry nodded and grinned, "Yep!"

"But that doesn't explain the whole bursting into flames and rising from your ashes

thing! Why was that necessary?" Of course, it was Hermione who asked that.

Harry's grin grew wider. "It wasn't really, it is just that my aniagmus form is a

phoenix. I wanted to come back with a bang, true Harry Potter style. Also I couldn't

leave the realm where I was with Gryffindor until you three got your act together and

started working as a team, together you brought me back, otherwise I would have

stayed there with Godric forever!"

His friends goggled at him. The Hermione, once again was the one to ask the

intelligent question, that the boys were too slow to think of.

"You're a phoenix animagus? I thought becoming a magical creature was

impossible!"

Harry nodded and his eyes sparkled.

"You can't. Well not with training. Only natural animagi can become a magical

creature, and there is usually only about one every 1000 years. I believe that the three

of you are also natural animagi. All you have to do is focus on your mind, how you

think and feel, and you should become it without much difficulty."

He gestured for his friends to follow him outside for this particular activity. Once

outside in the moon-lighted grounds he began to instruct his friends. One by one

they became there animals. Draco's wasn't much of a surprise to anyone, he turned

out to be a Hungarian Horntail. Hermione's wasn't all that hard to deal with either,

she turned into a pure white unicorn with dazzling golden hooves and horn. It was

Ron who surprised everyone. No one knew quite what to think when he turned into

a Hippogriff.

Of course, Harry thought later. Ron was rather like a Hippogriff, short- tempered,

and easily offended.

So each friend made their own crest with their animal on it. Though, Ron was very

surprised when he found out he was a hippogriff. Next they chose where their house

dormitories would be. Harry, Ron, and Hermione had agreed that none of them

would be allowed to have the Gryffindor common room. The rooms that they chose

were quite different from what the old dorms that they had known so well were like.

Hermione's was a large oval room, decorated in dark purple and silver. It had many

book selves that would hold books that only people like Hermione would appreciate.

The large fireplace on the far side of the room had a large painting of a beautiful

unicorn looking over the room. Hermione had also added a smaller room attached

the common room for third years and above only. It had a small stream that flowed

through a small garden and a lot of garden benches and fairies.

Harry had chosen a room that was a rectangular shaped, decorated much like the

Gryffindor Common room. Except, above his fireplace there was a painting of a red

and golden phoenix. This was a secret passageway to a room that was a replica of

Quidditch pitch, where he hoped his future students would practice so that they

could when the cup.

Ron's room was like a lopsided square. It was filled with large conformable orange

couches with black lining on them. A hippogriff was above his fireplace. His secret

room was filled with games and fun things. Of course, a large chess set was provided.

Draco's room was an octagon with lots of dark corners. The colors of his room were

blue and bronze. He had had a painting done of his dragon self and placed it above

his fireplace. The secret room that he had provided for his students contained

supplies to make complicated potions that would cause other students great grief.

The four now had written all of the rules, school supply lists, and even what the

uniforms would look like. House members would wear their house colors for robes.

Hermione's house would wear dark purple robes with silver lining; Harry's house

would wear red with gold lining; Ron's would wear orange with black lining; and

Draco's house would wear navy blue with bronze lining. Ron liked the idea of having

the uniforms being more colorful. The friends were now up in what used to be

Dumbledore's office discussing how to sort students into their houses. Draco went

first.

"The stupidly brave, suicidal ones will go to Potter House. The know-it- alls to

Granger House, the loyal-as-puppy-dogs with huge tempers will go to Weasley

House. And of course the brilliant, sly, good looking one's will go into Malfoy

House."

Ron and Hermione looked like they were about ready to say something but Harry

stopped them from starting yet another fight.

"Thank you for that Malfoy. No, it will be more like the valiant, headstrong students

will go to Potter House. The brilliant minds of the world will go to Granger House.

And the most friendly, loyal people in the world will go to Weasley. Everyone left out

will be in Malfoy."

It took a whole hour to get the qualities down without insulting the other people in

the room. They also decided that after they all were dead that there would be an

amulet that the students would place over their heart and it would shout out the

house that the student belonged to. Of course, this amulet would have the school

crest etched into it. The four also enchanted to write down the name of every magical

child who was 11, in the United Kingdom every year.

The school would be called Dumbledore's Academy of Magical Learning, named

after the best headmaster Hogwarts ever had, in hope that the school would be run

well. The school motto would be: Quasi aliquis semper nunguam absque; fortasse

apud capacitas tamen nunguam apud cor. The first staff of the school had been hired

and the classes that would be available selected. The required classes would be

Transfiguration, DADA, Potions, History of Magic, Charms, Muggle Studies, and

Dueling. Then when a student came to his/her third year they had to take two more

classes. For those you could take Herbology, Divination, CoMC, Study of Ancient

Runes, Arthimancy, Healing with Magic, Illusions, Magical Art, or being on a

Quidditch team. Students were allowed to take up to four of those classes, but no

more. (Hermione had been the one to instate that rule.)

Everything was going wonderfully. And by the time to send letters to those who

would be the first class of the school, everything was perfect, Harry and Ginny; Ron,

and Hermione; and Draco and Liberty were all married in a triple wedding, the castle was ready for students, and the rules had been set. But there was one surname on the

list of students that Harry was very shocked to see. It must be a different person then

who he thought it was! But later when he went to the house, he did find it was the

person he thought it was. No denying it, a Dursley would be coming to Hogwarts.
