Chapter Two: The dark Side of Me
By the time they finished their explanation of Shadow play, Harry wanted to scream. I mean this power could possibly help defeat Voldemort and all, but this was all to much. Hellion and Amber shared looks at his cross expression. One way or another when it all came down to defeating Voldemort, he was always going to be involved.
Harry started to sit up slowly to look at his surroundings. The room was beautiful he admitted. It had white marble floors and black marble walls. Looking up there was a big white light, but there was no source of where it was coming from. Turning to look at Hellion he frowned." What is everyone going to think when I'm missing. And what is this plan of Voldemorts."
" I can't explain in detail what it is, but we already know what his main plan is," Amber explained, her voice cold." the dumb idiot decides he wants to kill all muggles. Well, even the muggleborns!"
" So, I'm here to be trained by this Guinevere?" He asked again, trying to take in the whole shadow play thing.
Hellion took a deep breath." Yes, you are Harry dear, but first Amber is skilled in some arts herself. She's actually a elemental. Which means she's could to teach you how to control fire. In order for you to be ready to take on shadow magic you need to learn how to control fire. And you have been reported missing earlier today. Uh, we will keep it like that until it's time for you to return to Hogwarts. Nobody could know about this, I mean, we don't want Voldemort to find out."

" Just concentrate Harry," Amber ushered softly, putting a hand on his heart. Her blue eyes were closed in concentration, and her long, blond hair was blowing in the wind." just feel the heat."
Harry who wasn't feeling anything at all growled in frustration. They were outside the lawn sitting crossed legged. Amber was trying to trigger his inner firer by putting her hand on his heart, but maybe fire wasn't his element. But than he felt a flowing sensation flowing through his veins. It was like his whole body was on fire. Shuddering, he concentrated to keep his eyes closed.
" Open your eyes." Amber whispered.
He gasped." Is this real?
" Of course Harry, I mean, what did you think I was teaching you?" Came the cheeky reply.
" So if I was to, ummm, let me see here, what's the word for it?" He pondered." throw it at somebody it would possibly kill them."
" Yes," She answered laughing." I know what your thinking Harry, and Draco Malfoy isn't a threat."
" Who said I was talking about him?"
" Come on Harry," Amber chuckled." I'm not stupid."
" Look Amber -"
" You must be Harry," Came a loud cheery voice. Harry and Amber whirled around to see a tall lady with red hair standing in the back doorway. Breaking his concentration, the fire balls quickly vanished.
Amber sat up quickly." Hey Guinevere! I thought you weren't arriving until tonight."
Guinevere smiled at her." Well, I was so excited about meeting young Harry here," She jerked her head over to him." that I had to get here ASAP."
" Young," The blue eyed girl said, faking a hurt expression." I'm only fifteen too, doe's that make me young?"
" Of course darling." Was the simple reply.
Harry who stood up looking quiet lost tried to hold his gasp. Guinevere somewhat resembled his mother ." Well," He said awkwardly," when do I start training?"
The red head smirked." If you new me you wouldn't have asked that question. I'm all about training everyday and all day."
" Have fun." Amber whispered, dashing into the house.

" No, were going to practice the basics of shadow magic. When your over the basic and ready for the pros than I'll teach you shadow play."
Harry nodded quickly. They were in a huge dark room which kind of made him feel vulnerable. Not to think harshly or anything, but who says they aren't working for Voldemort? Taking a deep breath he waited patiently until Guinevere told him what was next.
" Okay, this is what were going to do. In order to conquer the basics of Shadow magic you need to find the Dark Side of you. Everyone has a side of them that they try to cover up. Let's use Voldemort as an example .. well he only uses the dark side of him. The light side of him has evaporated along with his sanity. However; you use the light side more than the dark. In order to embrace shadow magic you need to embrace the darkness within. Now, this doesn't mean the evilness within either. Shadow magic and shadow play is all about embracing both sides of you to form gray. Gray means you are neither light or dark, but fight for what you think is right or wrong. See, that's why Voldemort would never be able to do it. That bastard would never be able to embrace his lightness."
" So," Harry wondered, trying to digest this all." how do I embrace the dark side of me?"
" Since I'm the shadow magic is should be a lot easier for you," Guinevere explained." all you need to do is embrace when I say the spell. Something would come over you believe me. Now, let's see here .. close your eyes. Yes, okay, um, now, well, let me see here. I haven't done this before I must admit. Okay, well, let's get start ... hum .. well this is gonna get a little scary. I'm about to bring my dark side out so please retrain from running out of the room."
If the lights were on she would have seen his terrified face. But his thoughts quickly were cute off by a Guinevere, or he hoped it was her. " COME OUT AND EMBRACE THE DARKNESS OF SHADOW MAGIC. WE SHALL SEE HIS TRUE SELF, THE GRAYNESS OF IT ALL. COME OUT AND EMBRACE IT, EMBRACE IT! LET'S SEE NOW! COME OUT NOW HARRY, LET THE DARKNESS TAKE YOU!
Harry felt the air knock out of his lungs. His breathing became ragged as dizziness over took him. It was the strangest feeling ever. He couldn't hear or see anything. The last thing he remembered was the lights turning on and seeing Guinevere gray eyes. ...
