Ok, so I realised that I didn‛t have a disclaimer and I don‛t want to be sued or anything. So I just wanted to say that I don‛t own any of the Harry Potter characters. I do, however, own all of the vampires and the mortals that they will feed upon. Thanks again!
Last Time: "We‛re vampires Harry" Ivy said.
Harry stood still for a moment.
"Oh." He replied.
"Oh? That‛s all you have to say?" Ivy said, slightly shocked.
"Well yeah. I mean, it‛s not that big a deal. Well I guess it could be worse, you know?"
"No, we don‛t know Harry. Why don‛t you enlighten us." Paris finally said, now coming out of his shell shock.
"Well, I guess you could be evil vampires." Harry said, chuckling.
"I guess." Ivy said cautiously.
"You don‛t believe us do you?" Said Paris sadly.
"No, I do!" Nodding his head, Harry replied. "You see, I‛m not a muggle either!"
"Muggle?"
"Yeah, you know, ‛non-magic folk‛" Harry said, quoting his beloved half-giant friend.
"What are you trying to tell us Harry?‟ Ivy asked. ‟That you‛re an immortal also?"
"No. What I‛m trying to say is that I‛m a wizard."
For a few seconds the three teens did not speak. All that could be heard was the crickets chirping and the leaves rustling in the trees.
"I see." Paris said, not quite sure what to say.
"You don‛t believe me do you?"Said Harry, now him being the sad one.
"Not really. Can you show us so we‛ll believe you?" Said Ivy finally finding her voice.
"Um, I would love to. But you see my school kind of has this thing were we‛re not allowed to do magic outside of the school year. I would do it anyway but the last time it happened, I got threatened with expulsion. And I really can‛t take that risk right now. Not while I‛m living with the Dursleys."Harry said quickly.
"Ok. We‛ll just have to take your word for it, won‛t we Ivy?"Paris said, quite cheerfully now.
"Uh-huh." Ivy replied, skeptically.
"So who are these Elders you guys kept talking about?"
"Well, because we‛re just changelings," Paris began.
"Meaning we were just turned." Interrupted Ivy.
"We need to be kept safe from other vampires,"continued Paris as if Ivy had not spoken out of turn. "Until we get our full powers, that is. The Elders are the first vampires that started our coven, so naturally they would be the oldest members, hence the name Elders."
"What‛s with the whole power thing?"
It was Ivy‛s turn to explain. "Every vampire has their own power. As they get older the more blood they will need to survive. Usually their power helps them get more blood."
"Ok, I think I got everything." Harry said taking everything in slowly.
Over on the horizon the sun started coming up, casting a pink hue on everything in the park.
"Should you guys be getting home?"Harry asked, seeing the sunrise.
"No, why?" Paris asked back his brow furrowing.
"Well the sun is coming up. Don‛t vampires burn in the sunlight?"
Both Paris and Ivy looked at each other, and laughed.
"Of coarse not, silly!" Ivy exclaimed, still laughing.
"Where would you get an idea like that?" Paris chuckled.
Harry looked down. ‛Now they think I‛m some stupid little kid.‛
"From books." He mumbled.
"Well don‛t worry, Harry. We‛ll teach you everything there is to know about us vampires! Maybe you‛ll even get a first hand experience!" Ivy said with joy.
"Ok." Harry smiled.
"Well lets get home. I‛m still hungry and I don‛t feel like explaining to Silence why we‛re late for morning meditation." Paris complained.
"Silence? That‛s a cool nick-name!" Harry said excitedly.
"Silence is his given name, Harry. His parents wanted him to become a monk, the kind that would take a vow of silence. So they gave him that name hoping it would push him in the right direction."Ivy explained kindly.
"Oh. Did he?" Harry asked.
"Well, in a way. Not the way his parents wanted though. You‛ll meet everyone soon enough." Paris said.
The three walked back to the mansion, unaware of the yellow eyes that were watching their backs dissipate.
