Chapter 10:
Four Cyclones of the Hoghallaclips
Beta and co-author Lukanicus
"SILENCE," boomed a deafening sound. It sounded like the heavens had opened and was about to enact revenge for Ron, Hermione and Blaise. A wind whirled into the room as the main doors slammed closed and the ceiling glassed over. Four Winds appeared out of individual cyclones that matched each other perfectly for speed and size.
"Harry what is it? I'm scared."
"Draco, take my hand and don't let go. If we die here, we ought to die together."
"Who, what are you?" a confused Draco asked.
The cyclones kept spinning. Everyone in the great hall except Harry and Draco stood frozen as if petrified. Harry and Draco were scared stiff.
It was common knowledge that there were vast amounts of defensive charms, spells and counter spells placed throughout Hogwarts. All set since the school was built by the most powerful wizards alive. They were supposed to make Hogwarts impenetrable from all outside influences. So how could this be happening at Hogwarts?
Both Harry and Draco looked in horror as the four cyclones neared there table, "Harry it has got to be the Death Eaters from my dream. They are here to claim me."
"Not if I have anything to do with it my love."
A Louder voice than before erupted from the skies, "CHRONOMETRA LA POSIIZIONE, THINE DEL TUTTAVA QUEL GOCCO MA TEMPUS RESTO VEDER REICORDARE "
"Harry, we're going to die. They are trying to put an ancient curse on us. What shall we…" Harry looked at your hands. Draco could see that there was a fiery red glow emanating from Harry's hands. More disturbing even, there was the brightest emerald shining all around his.
"SEPARATE!" The voice sounded even louder.
"They're trying to move us apart. Harry what's happening. The lights are growing, Harry I'm scared."
"Fight Draco, this light must be our gift from the angels, don't let them take us Draco fight my love, fight."
The voice started again, "CHRONOMETRA LA POSIIZIONE, THINE DEL TUTTAVA QUEL GOCCO MA TEMPUS RESTO VEDER REICORDARE."
Harry and Draco were looking intently at one another. Draco's eyes had turned a bright emerald Green and Harry's eyes were a fiery Red. The glowing lights from there contact had created a solid barrier of light between them and those on the outside. They looked and saw all traces of people from the room disappear as if they were not there.
"CHRONOMETRA LA POSIIZIONE."
"Harry I can hear them. I understand what they are saying. I understand." Draco somehow could understand the dialect that was being shouted by all four cyclones now.
"Harry it's not a curse, it's a spell"
Still not daring to let go of Harry's hand and getting the same feeling from his love Draco tried to translate as best he could.
"May
time stand still divine for they,
Whose love for centuries hath
dust strayed,
Keep ignorant all unready eyes
Too early for
our cause to spy."
"What the hell is going on?"
No sooner had Draco finished his translation than all of the fellow pupils had disappeared. The four cyclones started to slow down, so that both boys could see the creators of them. Harry and Draco didn't have a clue what to make of the spell. They just shrugged and looked incredulously at each other. Harry doubted if Draco had actually understood exactly what was said. Get ready to run Harry whispered to Draco.
Before they could move the four cyclones came to a dramatic halt. In the four corners of the table stood four very serious looking wizards, Severus Snape, Minerva McGonagall, Mad Eye Moody and the most powerful wizard of them all Albus Dumbledore.
"Don't break your hold on each other Potter," Snape sneered in a truly sinister whisper.
"Thank you Severus I will take it from here," intoned Dumbledore.
"Professor as you wish," acquiesced Professor Snape.
"What is happening to us? What's this light? Why are we glowing and what did you do to the rest of the school?" Harry had so many questions. He couldn't believe he was awake. He must surely be dreaming.
""Harry this is quite real," Dumbledore's calming almost wheezy voice trying to calm both boys. "It is vitally important that you do not break contact with each other while I explain or else you won't remember what happens from that point on. You both have been looking for each other for over three hundred and fifty years now, ever since the last Great War."
"What lies inside you Draco is the spirit of the one they called Farore of the seven winds, she the most beautiful and gentle of witches whose magic although powerful, was only used for healing."
"You Harry were the great and powerful Din whose power and strength were used to save life, and smite evil. Your power was only eclipsed by your love for your wife, Farore."
"That's ridiculous Professor I'm a boy, not a witch," protested Draco.
"That is very True Draco, but you are both unquestionably they."
"Professor, if this is true, why are the four of you levitating around our table? And what did you just do to all the school?"
"Professor may I."
"Of Course, Severus."
"Seventeen years ago, when you were both born in the same circumstances, at the same time and in the same place, I witnessed the passing of the great treasure of Amants."
"What are you going on about sir, the treasure of Amants?"
"I think I can explain better Severus."
"Minerva of course" Snape hissed at her and went back to his chess piece like posture.
"In the Wizarding World there is only ever one truly pure and unadulterated love. This love is held in the very fibre of the being that is gifted with it. The gift cannot be given away as those who are blessed with the treasure of Amants can only exist when their lover is also alive."
"What the Professor is trying to say is," interrupted Mad Eye Moody.
"Thank you Moody I was coping quite well on my own," Professor McGonagall said reproachfully.
"Thank you Minerva when the union of Amants is broken the pure love energy travels the universe till it finds its soul mate again and waits to be able to break free from what ever constraints the bearer may have on it," Moody interjected again.
"I shall continue now if you would all be as good as to stay where you are please." Dumbledore had allowed the other three their excited input but wanted to get the facts over to the two new lovers as time was running out.
"Professor we were not born on the same day. Draco is three months older than me."
"No Harry I altered time when we realised what had happened so that you wouldn't be a target for Voldemort. If he knew that the divine ones had arrived again on earth he would have tried to use you for himself. Or if he couldn't he would have killed you both."
"He did try with me," conceded Harry.
"What nobody outside these four walls knows is that when Voldemort killed your parents Harry, your love life partner, Draco, was in the same house. It was not your mother's love that saved you that day, it was Draco's. Even in the same house you were strong enough to protect each other. Draco grew stronger as we put you in limbo for three months with your mother."
When Voldemort had fled we charmed you both so that you would stay hidden from each other during your early years, to protect you. We always knew that you would find a way of being near each other, hence your school arguments and fights. Skilful potion blending from Severus allowed us to know when your love would finally be free, and when you would both be able to claim your rightful places as the Leaders of the True"
"Harry, Draco you must repeat after me."
Moody was looking at a strange kind of chronometer and urging them as time was running out.
"There's no place like home."
"There's no place like home."
"There's no place like home."
"There's no place like home."
With that they were in the great hall with all four professors standing on the floor around them.
"Later we will talk to you both more, but for the time being, we need to keep a lid on this. We have with the help of your combined power moved back in time to before you told Miss Granger. Please do not make that mistake again. Voldemort would launch a full out attack against us if he knew you had returned, and we are not yet ready. You both need to gather your strength, and your desires need to be fully restored. That's why we are sending you both away for a while"
With that said, the four wizards guided Harry and Draco to a fireplace in the Main Hall. After throwing in some flew powder they were gone.
