888Chapter Ten – Anamchara888

The silence was broken minutes later by Harry asking, "So, anyone want to tell me what an Anamchara is? Or should I ask the wall?"

"Sorry Harry, we keep forgetting you didn't grow up in the Wizarding world, and even then not all that have know what they are, there are not many people who find their Anamchara." Hermione said. "Anamchara means soul mate. They feel better around each other, calmer, safer and more relaxed. They can also feel what the other is feeling and some times what they are thinking. Your magic supplies will combine into one, giving you access to a greater amount of magic."

"So we're stuck together, for the rest of our lives? What if something happens to one of us? Were we always meant to be together, like were we born soul mates?" Harry asked.

"No, Harry, the relationship is developed over time; it can sometimes develop quickly, while others take time, yours was slow at starting, but it sped up last night. Reading each others minds is only the first stage of the bonding, each bond is different, depends on the people, the relationship, the feelings, environment, etc. You get different powers, other then the mind reading and the pooling of magic. The bond can be ignored and it will go away… over time… but at first it would be very hard on both people, mentally and physically."

"Basically, it would be your own death," Pansy said darkly, "Or that's what it would feel like, the pain, horrendous and the continuous ache is worse then you could ever imagine. Every thing becomes dark, you taste nothing, feel nothing, until you're together again, then heaven is your life, every thing is bright, nothing seems wrong and you feel safe and whole."

Everyone in the room sat there looking at her shocked, Hermione most of all, according to all the books she had read, the removal of the bond is only temporary and is only painful at first. "What… Where did you get this stuff from?" Hermione questioned, unsure of whom to believe, the books she had read or a Slytherin girl she had not seen in the past year.

"From experience, Hermione" Was the quiet answer from, not who she had asked, but from Percy.

"What do you mean Percy?" Harry asked, slightly icily, not quite over what Percy had done in the past and still didn't know much of what he'd been up to since the last he had been seen.

"What he means is that we know the feeling from experiencing it." Pansy answered slight agitation and tiredness showing in her voice. She soon continued, seeing the interest from Harry, Ron and Hermione, "Percy and I were dating for a while when I was in sixth year, we didn't realize about the bond, until I was researching for potions, anyway I was flicking through a book on bonding potions, boring as hell though, and I came across a page which had Anamchara across the top of it, intrigued I read through the page and found out about Anamcharas, I told Percy what I had learnt and we figured that must be what was causing what had been happening."

Pansy stopped here, unable to go on with the story; obviously the memory of what she was about to say too painful for her. Percy decided to take over the telling of the tale, "We were excited at first but as the battle progressed we decided that our relationship would not be a good idea for either of our sakes, so we decided to split. After about a week, we couldn't take it any more so we decided that we should leave, and we did, and by the way, I'm sorry Harry for the things I wrote in those letters, I was a pathetic sniveling worm then, and I know that it is not much I just have to say I am sorry for not helping let alone supporting you, and as for you Ron, I am terribly sorry for saying those things to you and asking you to do all those things, I still haven't figured out where they came from. I just hope you both forgive me.

"I know that's way off subject but I needed to say it while I could. Back to what I had been saying before, the main reason we got back together was because life felt empty, you were constantly lonely, even while people surrounded you, the ache in the heart was always there, eating away at you."

"Wow, but what if things don't work out between us?" Harry asked.

"That's the thing, the bond will only form if the relationship is meant to work, if there is a huge possibility of it not, then it won't, I know I'm not explaining it very well, but it's difficult to explain to some one, with out them experiencing it themselves." Pansy said, bringing herself out of her thoughts.

"I think I get it, it still doesn't full make sense, but I think I get the gist of it." Harry said, he then turned to Draco, who had been uncharacteristically quiet, and ask, "What about you Dray? What do you think of all this?"

'I think it is one of the strangest things I've ever had happen to me, I mean, by the sounds of things, we are meant to be together, love each other, and we are bonded, big thing, very big thing.' Was the response from Draco to Harry.

Ron looked to Hermione and asked, "Are they doing the thoughts thingy again? Are they always going to be like that?"

Hermione chuckled and pecked Ron on the cheek and said in response, "You're just jealous that you can't read my mind." Hermione said cheekily. "Oh and by the way, I thought Anamcharas are rare?" She said, turning to Pansy.

"It's not that they are rare, just people don't realize they are soul mates. They feel the connection, but don't always develop the mind reading abilities, but they can usually feel what the other is feeling. The other thing is most don't want to be documented for personal reasons. That's another reason we left, we didn't want people finding out about us, let alone the fact that we are soul mates, but anyway that's in our past."

The rest of the lunch went on normally, well as normal as a lunch can go in a wizarding world with a pair of reunited brothers, the boy who live and his soul mate the Ice Prince of Slytherin, a snobby Slytherin witch, who is married to one of the brothers and a full blooded wizard dating the smartest student at Hogwarts, who is also a muggle-born. Like that could be normal...
