THE BOYS WHO LIVED
Chapter 20: Music of the Heart
The morning came all too soon as everyone walked down excited that something like this would happen to them. The students of Hogwarts had a pleasant morning just enjoying the sun rise for the early risers or people like the band that performed the night before crawled out to breakfast. At was decided to have brunch instead of breakfast for the headmaster had a feeling that everyone would still be too tired to get up in the morning.
The great hall eventually filled as everyone walked out and even the staff looked like they could sleep for ages. It was a real surprise to find Professor Snape and Lupin being the last ones out to brunch. Everyone also made a change as they greeted the dark greasy haired professor with cheerful good mornings. The potions master raised his eyebrow in acknowledgement and smirked a little. No longer feeling that much bitter especially when his Slytherin students mingled with other houses and surprisingly enough the one who started it all sat happily with his new friends.
Draco Malfoy sat with his friends enjoying something to eat when Blaise Zabini walked up to them and gave Draco a high five. He whispered something in his ear and the boys laughed. Snape watched as Draco whispered it back to Harry Potter and his roommates. Walking towards his dungeons he began to think of the things he gave to the boy. He remembered that today was also the graduation night of the seventh years. Oh he was in for it when they start their partying he just know he is not getting any sleep tonight.
Snape continued to walk through the halls when he looked up at the sky after walking through the court yard. A sandwich in his hand he felt that he needed to be alone. Looking towards the lake he was surprised to find a black dragon flying over the water. It's wings unlike anything he had ever seen before on a dragon. They were not fingered like a normal dragon at all more like a sea gull or one of those creatures that muggles talk about. To wizards they are the ancient dragons and looking at this so called ancient dragon now he watched as it flew around the lake and then dove in.
He did not have to wait any longer as the dragon leaped out of the water after the giant squid and flapped its wings again. It rose majestically into the sky once again soaring higher and higher. It was then that he remembered that night many weeks ago. The mighty Pacific Storm Wing Dragon Hakkai Hunter. The dragon seeming to sense him gave a fierce cry as she flapped her wings over him and rose over the castle.
She was then joined by a hippogriff whom Snape remembers all too well. Buckbeak the Hippogriff soared alongside the dragon together as they did dips and loops before Buckbeak returned to his pen after nearly an hour of flying. The dragon continued to soar before flying over to where the Professor sat with his nearly eaten sandwich. It flapped its wing in a hovering mode before soaring upwards crying out to the world. The dragon then dove downwards and extended its legs and landed with a hop. Flapping her wings for a bit of balance she the shifted her form with a 'pop' and Hakkai stood there smirking.
"Came to watch me fly?" she asked and the Professor shrugged, "Actually I came out here to be alone," he said enjoying the last of his sandwich. "Good to hear sir," she said as she sat down next to the stoic Potions Master. "You know dwelling on the past will only make you even more grouchy," she said, "Are you reading my mind?" he asked raising his eyebrow, "No I heard from the ravens how you nearly were killed by a werewolf and had since hated the name Potter. They told me a lot of things about you," she said, "Oh really?" he said, "Hey I am not saying anything if that is what you are inquiring. Dragons are good at keeping their secrets," she said smirking at him.
"That was really quite a show you did last night," Snape said, "Why thank you I am sorry to hear about that woman last night," Hakkai finished, "Ah she was a stuck up whore anyway I saw the way she was flirting and tried it with me," he replied and Hakkai raised an eyebrow. "Why did she touch you places you didn't want to be touched?" she asked and the older man nodded, "Brought back bad memories," Snape replied as he turned to the dragon girl, "Well I know how that goes I've seen it many times when I was incarcerated they just did not try it with me though," she said, "I can imagine the poor blokes." Snape replied, "Well what do you think about the performance we promised the house elves tonight eh?" Hakkai asked.
Snape was indeed surprised that the dragon asked this, "Well it would lift the students spirits considering the happenings with the dark lord," he said and Hakkai nodded. "Well now that the official concert is over we just have the private one to deal with and speaking of which," she said looking at the sun. "I have practice to attend to if you would excuse me Professor," she said and her form shifted into that of her dragon form before taking off once again.
To say that the activities of the great hall were nothing compared to when the Students of Hogwarts walked away to deal with meager things like last night's concert. The posters that went up to deal with tonight's concert however was something new. The Headmaster did say that the last weekend of the school year will be a good one.
The end of the school year concert and dance was something that everyone is invited to for it was a way for the students to spend time with their friends before their departure. It was such a way that Draco Malfoy found himself in the Slytherin Common Room with surprisingly Crabbe and Goyle but the conversation was way different then when they first started out nearly five years before.
"Hey Drake you sure rocked the house last night," Crabbe said as he watched their former leader tune his guitar, "Well things certainly changed throughout the school year," he said, "Yeah look at us now we can think for ourselves it seems that we never could all our lives," said Goyle. "Well I think that some time outside of the Wizarding world did us some good. Look at it this way no parents telling us what side to go to or who to associate with it was freedom at its purest," said Draco as he sat there looking really happy with himself.
"Yeah I send owls to my friends in the Muggle world quite often and you get to make friends with a dragon," said Crabbe. Draco smirked his trademark smirk. "Well we can all thank Potter for that one," he said and the boys laughed.
CHAMBER OF SECRETS
"Man that was a long practice," Ron said as he put away his drumsticks his bare back glistening with sweat. "Well Ron you do have a performance to do tonight and girls to impress," said Hermione smirking at his blushing face, "Oh come off it Ron! You will be the talk of the school as one of the famous 'Boys Who Lived!'" Hermione said and Ron sort of brightened up a bit.
Harry in the meantime was going over the lyrics to one of the songs, "Are you sure you want Hakkai to sing this one Drake?" he asked Draco and Draco nodded, "Yeah I mean it seems fit since it talks about child molesting and taken that it is from a girls point of view preferably Snape's Mother then yeah," he said and Harry nodded as he went over his other Lyrics for tonight.
LATER THAT EVENING
"Fear I'm Gone my heart lives on Remember me!" Harry sang as he walked down the hall a smile on his face as other students moved out of his way. "Close your eyes, say good bye! Remember me!" "Harry!" someone yelled, "Harry Potter Nan Dai Yo! "someone shouted and Harry jumped and all his things fell to the floor. Harry turned to find Neville laughing as he held his stomach. "Sorry Harry but you were attracting quite the crowd." Neville replied and the boy blushed a bit.
"Well I am just excited you know Neville so don't take it personally!" Harry said and Neville laughed, "I know Harry it is just that well…" he said and Harry seemed to catch on, "You find that some things are just well strange," he said. As they opened the great hall to their astonishment the boys found all the tables to be gone replaced by smaller tables off to the side and a large stage in the front. "Well what do you think about this?" asked Neville and Harry shrugged, "Well I could think of it as something to remember anyone by," he said smirking. "Well the seventh years will undoubtedly love it," Neville said, "Yeah the end of the year feast oh joy," Harry joked, "Aw come on Harry why don't we start something?" Neville said, "Since when did you get a backbone?" Harry teased.
"I got it since you taught us DA and I've always had it because I am a Gryffindor after all," with that he puffed out his chest to show he was tough but Harry poked his stomach and he deflated. "Well since this is the last day of school we might as well make use of it," Harry said and Neville.
GREAT HALL
"I'm telling you if you make a single clapping sound and put it in a pattern it helps with rhythm," Ron said and Hermione looked at him strangely, "I mean it," Ron said and to demonstrate he clapped in a pattern and it showed the difference in beat. "You see," he said and Hermione sighed, "Yeah but Ron if you do the pattern wrong it will throw the entire thing off!" Hermione said and Ron shrugged. "Hey Dean remember that cheerleading thing we saw once on the Tele?" Neville asked and Dean looked at him before shrugging, "Well imagine what happens when you do that and spell something," and to demonstrate Neville pounded a beat into the table before saying, "CELE – B-R-A-T-E!" he said smirking. "Was that what you and Harry were doing this morning?" Dean asked and Neville shrugged.
"Do what?" Ron said, "Harry has been holding out on us again?" Seamus teases him, "Have not!" replied Harry as he ate a bit of his steak. "Then what cheer were you and Neville working on or are you both hiding the skirts in our rooms?" Ron said and Harry blushed while everyone chuckled, "Um are they our skirts or the ones you borrowed from Ginny Ron?" Neville shot back and Ron blushed the same color as his hair. "Ok then Ron if you want to hear it why didn't you say so," Harry said and began to play a beat on the table.
Ron catching on began to play as well copying the beat from Harry as they pounded the rhythm. The boys began to laugh as they played that beat and Neville and Harry began to chant.
(oh...) Cele-b-r-a-t-e (Celebrate!)
(oh...) Cele-b-r-a-t-e (Celebrate!)
(oh...) Cele-b-r-a-t-e (Celebrate!)
All the way from the Slytherin table Draco turned when everyone stopped talking and stared at the Gryffindor table. Hearing the chanting Draco turned around and spotted Harry, Neville and Ron chanting that same phrase while Seamus and Dean laughed it up. Finishing his plate Draco turned his seat to watch. He then gotten board really quickly and walked up to the Gryffindor table. Dean and Seamus scooted over to let him sit down. "So what is going on?" Draco asked, "Well we were teasing Harry and Neville when this guy (pointing to Ron) called them cheerleaders, so they decided to take it upon themselves to start something," said Seamus and Draco smirked, "Gryffindors," he muttered, "Well they better put something else besides that in there for it is getting rather boring," said Pavati,"
Draco then walked up to Harry and whispered something in his ear and boy turned to him and leaped up onto the table. He had gotten the attention of the entire great hall. He began to clap and chant the same thing then mentioned for Ron to get up on another table. Ron ran to the Hufflepuff table and Neville did the same for the Ravenclaw table. Draco decided to get into the fun and leaped onto the Slytherin table.

While they were singing this song they danced on the table causing everyone to scream as food was being stepped in and thrown about. The dance though ridiculous was what everyone needed to wake up from a nearly boring day. Harry did a cartwheel and a few back flips. Hermione who was sitting down eating began to laugh, "I feel like I am watching a Muggle musical," she said and Ginny nodded, "Yeah I saw one of those earlier in the year, but it is rather odd that people would suddenly burst into song," Ginny replied as Harry walked past them clapping his hand and everyone cheered. "I find it rather disturbing that my bother is in on this as well," Ginny said, "Well they did place a bet on it," "Well can't they wait till later tonight," said Ginny," I guess they are nervous," Hermione replied while saving a piece of cherry pie from Harry's feet.
On the head table the professors started to laugh as they boys did a few antics while doing that so Dumbledore with a wave of his wand vanished the food on the table. "Do they do this all the time?" he asked Hakkai who stood in the shadows, "Not really but from what I hear they had a wager going," she said smirking. "Well that is one thing I am willing to ask you," he said, "Oh?" asked Hakkai, "I was meaning to ask you if you are willing to take the Muggle Studies program next year?" he said, "Um professor I am in a way a Muggle," Hakkai said, "I meant as Professor Hakkai you showed these boys a good time and taught a few purebloods about how Muggles live. I wanted someone who can teach that class with current knowledge of the Muggle world," Dumbledore said, "What about the current professor?" asked Hakkai, "He is retiring that is why I am asking you," he said and Hakkai showed a small smile on her face before nodding, "I see well then headmaster I accept." Said Hakkai shaking Dumbledore's hand.
As the song died down Hakkai took her leave leaving everyone clapping and cheering at the boys antics. Dumbledore stood up and began to clap as well before calling for silence. "Now that I have your most humble attention I must say that was most entertaining," he said and everyone laughed. "Now then if you don't mind I would like to thank the house elves for a most fantastic feast they had prepared for us and after we got a good rest I would like all students to come down for the end of the year dance who will be entertained by our most esteemed Mr. Potter and his merry band," he said and that earned a few more laughs.
As the band remained after everyone stepped up towards their dorms they group immediately walked down to the chamber of secrets and gotten their gear before heading upwards again to the great hall.
When they entered the hall it was already cleared and made with the smaller tables once more. The head table had been replaced with a stage for the band and Hakkai stood in front of the stage dressed in a pair of black jeans with a black shirt. Her hair was tied up in her usual pony tail and her glasses no longer on her face she looked at the band, "Well what are you waiting for set up already!" Hakkai ordered and the others ran for it to get their things ready.
Gazing up at the full moon she smirked, "Wolves will be out tonight," she said and walked out, "I will be back so don't run away," she said and walked out.
Once she was outside Hakkai looked at the sky before walking towards the whooping willow. The branches went to hit Hakkai but she easily flipped over and rolled under the branches before rolling into the entrance. Walking down the long tunnel that led to a door. Opening the door Hakkai walked in and was immediately face to face with a werewolf. The wolf growled at her be at peace wolf Hakkai said growling back at the wolf. The wolf growled low at her snapping his jaws till Hakkai's eyes glowed golden for a minute but that was enough to move the wolf away. How do you speak wolf? How do you know how to address me? The wolf demanded, simple wolf I am not human or you would have killed me already Hakkai answered back.
They stood facing each other the wolf cautious as always, why have you come here? Are you a vampire? No wait your scent……it is a dragon you are a dragon impossible! The wolf said and Hakkai smirked, "I am the rarest of dragon breeds wolf just as you are a wolf who has not accepted who he really is," Hakkai said and the wolf growled, how do you know this then dragon? The wolf asked. "Simple wolf after all why are you so afraid of yourself?" Hakkai said and the wolf put his head down, because I am afraid of spreading the disease to others said the wolf, "Well then we will have to fix that shall we?" she said holding up a flask, "This contains the Wolf's Bane Potion but unlike the wolf's bane you will not only keep your mind but you will be cured. The anger within you can be cured but at a price." Said Hakkai, how so? Asked the wolf, "simple at the state you are in now you will remain a wolf unless you learn to release the anger within you." Said Hakkai
The wolf continued to circle, me release my anger care to explain? The wolf asked, "Well if you let go of what ever it is that angers you then the wolf will no longer hold any hold on you, mind you will still be a werewolf but you will no longer hold any grudges nor have the urge to kill humankind. I see you drink that potion that Snape gave you but eventually you come addicted to it and used to it. It weakens you mental defenses as Snape found out. The vial I hold came from my blood but I think it is best if you learn yourself how to become one with the wolf." And how can I trust you dragon! How will I know you will not kill me? "Dragons do not kill unless you threaten them or are food I do not eat wolves thank you very much," Hakkai answered, why do I need to let go of my anger? I am angry that I can't be around humans anymore without fear of not turning them, I fear humankind because they fear me! They run from me when the moon is full, I can't work to gain a coin and those who befriended me are dead! The wolf said in anguish, "Then let go wolf let it all go isn't there someone worth it to you? Someone whom wants you to be happy? A boy perhaps and a female?" said Hakkai.
The wolf stopped pacing and stared, you know don't you? "Yes," said Hakkai, "You are Remus Lupin friend of James Potter, Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew, the later becoming a traitor to the man who turned me into a human. The other two died to protect a little boy a boy from what I heard defeated the dark lord and sent him into a corporeal form. In this form he spent thirteen years trying to gain back that power which he held dear. During that time the boy became of age to learn magic. Well now in his third year he became friends with a werewolf and an animagus only to lose the animagus and is now losing the werewolf. I saw you at that concert last night before the moon was full and now this? Well now Remus are you going to allow yourself to become something you're not only to be something more?" Hakkai said.
"Right now Harry and his friends are performing for Hogwarts and it would honor me if you came," Hakkai said, how can I come when I am a wolf? The wolf asked, "Simple let go of your anger and hate and let the wolf free from its bonds. If the wolf is happy then you will be happy," he said and Remus sighed before feeling closing his eyes for a bit.
Hakkai taking this as her leave began to walk out of the shrieking shack just as the wolf howled to the moon once again. She walked the same way she came in but this time she hit the knob on the whooping willow before walking back towards the school.
GREAT HALL
It was around 8:00 when the first group arrived all of them house elves. They chatted excitedly as they got the refreshments set and the decorations up adding their special charms to it to light up the night. The charms professor, Professor Flitwick watched from the side and then put in his input of all the charms to be used during the night. But with house elves they have a different brand of magic which kind of intrigued the charms professor. As always the house elves did a great job of decorating the Great Hall.
When it came to curfew it was the time the concert was supposed to start. When the students entered they had a few guests there as well including a few e-professors.
TEACHER'S LOUNGE
The Teacher's lounge behind the great hall was turned into a dressing room as the group put on their newly cleaned outfits of sleeveless leather robes with the band's logo behind them. The teacher's all are present and wearing semi dress, semi causal robes as they and the various other students walked in, in their regular clothes.
The guys got together and walked onto the stage where the school erupted into applause as they band started to play a wordless song which got everyone dancing on the floor. Harry saw Ron signal to him and pointed with his drumsticks and Harry turned to find Tonks yanking Remus onto the dance floor. Harry gave a small smile on his lips as he saw the werewolf happy for the first time. Hermione was there talking to Professor McGonagall. The boys continued to play and Draco also signaled to Harry and cocked his head towards Snape and Harry nearly had a heart attack at the professor being dragged onto the floor by none other then Hakkai.
The guys all smirked at Hakkai as she danced with the professor (or trying to teach him how to lighten up). Eventually it worked when they started their first lyrical song as Snape stared at the band in shock.
We
stumble in a tangled web,
decaying friendships almost dead
And
hide behind a mask of lies
We
twist and turn and we avoid,
all hope of salvage now devoid
I
see the truth inside your eyes
So
take all this noise into your brain
and send it back again
I'll
bear the cost, shed my skin, call
you up and then...
I'll say
the words out loud
You
could resurrect a thousand
words to deceive me more and more
A
thousand words will give the
reasons why I don't need you
anymore
Oh
Time
manipulates your heart,
preconceptions torn apart
Begin to
doubt my state of mind
But I won't go down on what I
said
I won't retract convictions read
I may perplex, but I'm
not blind
So
take all this noise into your brain
and send it back again
I'll
bear the cost, shed my skin, call
you up and then...
I'll say
the words out loud
You
could resurrect a thousand
words to deceive me more and more
A
thousand words will give the
reasons why I don't need you
anymore
I'll say the words out loud. I'll say a
thousand
words or more
Manipulation. Fabrication.
Conversation.
Annihilation
I'll say a thousand words or more
Damnation.
Frustration. Elevation.
Procreation
I'll say a thousand words
or more
You could resurrect a thousand
words to deceive
me more and more
A thousand words will give the
reasons why I
don't need you
anymore
You
could resurrect a thousand
words to deceive me more and more
A
thousand words will give the
reasons why I don't need you
anymore
At the end of the song everyone screamed for more and Snape being the one almost bleach white with horror slowly oh so slowly his color changed from white to his normal pale skin. He then had a full blown smile on his face as the boys all gave him thumbs up.
Snape though shocked gave them a signal they did not expect. He hit his chest twice with his fist and pointed at them smirking. Hakkai seeing this nodded as she left Snape with a rather respectable looking witch and hurried up the stage.
She ran up the stage and transfigured her clothes as Harry tossed her a microphone. She wore her attire from the night before but this time the shirt was black with a dragon on the front. Taking up the microphone the band began to play and she filled the great hall with her voice.
I
see her as a little girl hiding in her room
She takes another bath
and she sprays her momma's perfume
To try to wipe away the scent
he left behind
But it haunts her mind.
You see she's his
little rag, nothing more than just a waif
And he's mopping up
his need, she is tired and afraid
Maybe she'll find a way
through these awful years to disappear.
Ask me if I think
there's a God up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of
her shame?
Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heavens
I
see no mercy and no one down here's naming names
Nobody's
naming names.
Now she's looking in the mirror at a lovely
woman face
No more frightened little girl, like she's gone
without a trace
Still she leaves the light burning in the
hall
It's hard to sleep at all.
Still she crawls up in
her bed acting quiet as a mouse
Deep inside she's listening for
a creaking in the house
But no one's left to harm her, she's
finally safe and sound
There's a peace she's found.
Ask
her how she knows there's a God up in the heaven
Where did he go
in the middle of her shame?
Ask her how she knows there's a God
up in the heavens
She said his mercy is bringing her life
again.
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven
(how
do you know? )
Where did he go in the middle of her shame
(where
did he go? )
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the
heavens
(how do you know? )
She said his mercy is bringing her
life again
She's coming to life again.
He's in the
middle of her pain
In the middle of her shame
Mercy brings
life
He's in the middle
Mercy in the middle.
So ask me
how I know
Ask me how I know, yeah
Ask me how I know there's
a God up in the heaven
(how do you know? )
Ask me how I know
there's a God up in the heavens
(how do you know? )
Yeah, ask
me how I know
(how do you know? )
Ask me
Ask me
Ask me
how I know
(how do you know? )
There's a God up in the
heavens
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens.
The crowds cheered as Hakkai lifted her hands up and they started to dance again when she sang another song for them. This one was not even in English. "Hello people," she said and everyone yelled at her and whistled. "How is your night so far?" she asked and they all screamed "Well I'm glad you like it! Now my next few numbers are in my native language which is Japanese I was raised by a Japanese man back home in America and he helped me a bit. So here It is hope you enjoy it!" she said and everyone cheered as she sang again.

Everyone was happy to hear something different as Hakkai filled them in on so many other songs before allowing them to dance the night away. As she sang everyone screamed for more of the strange foreign music to them. She then turned the mike to Harry and then walked off the stage. After a few instrumentals Harry decided that another Japanese lyrical song was needed. "Ready Neville?" he said and Harry smirked before telling the others what he wanted. Turning he saw Dumbledore tapping his foot to the beat as he held up a goblet from one of the tables saluting him.
Hitori de wa, tooi ashita wo
Yoake no mama de, koesou de
When I'm alone, tomorrow feels far away.
And I must go over still into the darkness of dawn.
Butsukatteikya kokeru omoi yo
Konya mo mata, sure chigai
If I try to play it straight, it will no doubt fail,
And tonight it won't go well between us again.
Sanzan sugite doryoku no ato mo
Naku naru kekka, only no tsuna watari
You can't see all of my hard efforts, because it's only result
Is that it makes no sense. It really is a "tightrope".
Yaru dake son suru yona, mainichi wa
Sha ni kamaeteta hou koso, raku ni naru
More effort, more damage--this is my daily life.
Taking a cynical attitude may give me some comfort...
Atsukute, tsurai jibun wo kakushite, mijikai toki wo ikiteru
Hiding myself, heated and irritated; living only a short time.
Hitori de wa, tooi ashita wo
Yoake no mama de, koesou de
When I'm alone, tomorrow feels far away.
And I must go over still into the darkness of dawn.
Hottokeba, hashiru omoi yo
Yume mo mata, sure chigai
If I let my emotions free,
My dreams will once again not go well.
Kanpeki to chau, jinsei no shuushi
Puramai zero da nanteba honto ka na?
I think the balance sheet of my life is imperfect.
If I add up the plusses and minuses, will it really equal zero?
Shinu made ni tsukaikiru, un no kazu
Semete, jibun de dashiire wo sasete
I want to control all my luck
That may be used up before my life is ended.
Wakacchainai, kimi nara dou ni demo, rikutsu wo kaete ii noni
You don't know--you can change logic at your will.
Nando kimi ni, ketsu mazuitemo
Modottekichau, aijou ni
I hurt myself because of you, over and over;
But my love didn't go away--it kept coming back.
Shinjikaneru, utaretsuyosa yo
Konya mo, soutou nemurenai
The toughness gained from my damage is unbelievable.
I won't be able to sleep at all tonight either.
Nando nankai, kurikaeshitemo
Modottekichau, ai dakara
However many times it's repeated,.
It revives again and again--because it's love.
Butsukatteiku, kesunu omoi wo
Semeru hou ga, suji chigai
You can't blame my emotion,
Because you should know it will never fade away.
Hitori de wa, tooi ashita wo
Yoake no mama de koeteyuku
When I'm alone, tomorrow feels far away.
And even though I'm in the darkness of dawn, I have to go.
Aishou yori mo, fukai futari wa
Sure chigatte kamawanai
I don't care about "bad affinity".
Even if our love is not doing well,
Nevertheless we have deep ties.
He and Neville had a blast singing a few Japanese songs which got the crowds moving as they danced to the tune. When Dumbledore looked at his watched he signaled to the band to wrap it up. Seeing this Harry turned to Draco and the boy raised his hand to the band which was the signal to wrap things up. "Alright folks it is time to wrap it up for tonight don't want you to miss the train now," he said and everyone groaned, "Ah don't give me that!" Harry said and they laughed at that statement. "Now our last song of the night will go out to our dear Professors out there yes you know who you are," he said and they watched as some of them blushed. "It has been a very eventful year I should say now then enough with the speeches and on with the music.
The crowds screamed as Draco nodded to Seamus who began to play. Ron gladly began to pound on the drums again as Neville took the stage this time. Harry and Neville exchanged glance before started.

As the song died out everyone cheered as the band took a bow and Professor Dumbledore stood up holding up his goblet for everyone to pay attention to him. "Wasn't that a wonderful concert tonight?" he said and everyone cheered, "Good, good now as you all must be feeling a bit exhausted from tonight I must remind you that the train leaves at eleven tomorrow morning so your heads of house will wake you so that you don't miss it," he said and everyone laughed. "Now Prefects if you would please," he said and the Prefects led everyone back out of the Great Hall towards their dorms.
The band remained behind however as Dobby the house elf as well as the other house elves cheered, "Harry Potter and his band are the greatest," he screeched with his squeaky voice, "You gave us House Elves a great night of entertainment we is proud." Dobby said and the other house elves cheered as well. They began to clean up the mess made by the students and pack up for the night.
Harry turned his head to see Hakkai helping with packing up the equipment to be transported back to the chamber of secrets. After that was done Harry went to go look for Remus. He did not have to look far to find his favorite professor in the corner snogging Tonks smirking to himself he slipped away back into the shadows. "Strange how beauty tames the beast," said a voice and Harry jumped up and spun around. Hakkai stood standing there with her arms crossed and looking back down the hallway towards the couple. "Indeed I feel glad for him," Harry said, "He needs it," Hakkai said, "When the moon is full the wolf will leave her be as will it leave you be," she said, "How is that?" Harry ask following after her. "Wolves live in packs and the pack is family. To Moony the wolf he had lost his pack a long time ago. Your scent is that of Prongs and Moony will remember prongs and thus take you in as a cub whether human or beast," she said, "But also remember you have the scent of the dragon now so more so will the wolf leave you be," with that she walked away into the darkness.
'Don't mind my master she is just weary of this night that is all.' Hissed Quick Strike and Harry looked down at the serpent hybrid. The snake rattled his tail for good measure before slithering away into darkness to hunt mice. Harry turned and walked down the hall towards the Gryffindor Tower. Just as he neared his floor he felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder. "You know Potter I should congratulate you but I don't know what to say at the moment," Snape said and Harry smiled as he looked up at the Potions Master. "Well then Professor how about you become a song writer. After all your writings did become a hit after all," Harry said and Snape smirked before turning and walking away.
As Harry changed into his pajamas he crawled into his bed. Hedwig was already beside him on her perch instead of in the Owlry and her eyes were closed fast asleep. Harry smiled at Hedwig before he too crawled into bed and was fast asleep with a smile on his face.

a/n: well that was fun anyways the music for this chapter was "Thousand Words' by Savage Garden, "Ask her," by Amy Grant, "Go to the light," by Star Ocean and "White Breath," by TM Revolution. The only reason why most of the Japanese Songs have no translations was because the sites I had gone to did not give any.
