Chapter 5
Hiding in plain view

Shawn sighed as he looked up at the stars.
The Dursleys had contacted him through email.
Dumbledore and the others were searching for him.
They had searched the Dursleys household.for hints.
The wizards had found nothing that could point them to his current location.
It was funny that Harry was right in their sight.
Shawn 'Inferno' Flame was currently residing in Diagon alley.

Just the place he wasn't expected to be.

Shawn had no financial problems because one meseta jewel was worth a five zero number.
Know that Shawn had five million of those things with him, and you have one rich person.

Shawn had rented a room a the leaky cauldron.
He was finishing lunch when Hagrid had come in.
The bartender greeted the half-giant.
Hagrid returned that he had some Hogwarts stuff to do.
Both Hagrid and Shawn entered the gate to Diagon at the same time, Hagrid started a conversation with Shawn.
Shawn answered Hagrid's question, "What ar ye doing here," and asked, "This is the year Harry Potter should enter hogwarts, isn't it?"
Hagrid looked a little shocked at the choice of subject, but answered anyway, "yeh, 'e should be, but 'e seem to resist."
"How so?"
" 'e ran away from us, 'e and 'is muggle cousin."
" oh, what happened."
" 'e seemed to recognise Snape and was very rude against the 'eadmaster."
"Really? But you can also see it this way, Harry Potter was, as far I know, raised by muggles. This could have impacted on him if he didn't know magic. How would you react to something that was considered a fairytale?"
"I see," Hagrid said.
They had reached the wizarding bank Gringotts and entered the building.
Shawn went first, and asked for a ride to vault #999, the devil's vault.
Prefect for Shawn and his goal.
Hagrid asked to be taken to vault #713 and the you-know-what.
Both were taken to a cart and they took off.
It was a wild rollarcoaster ride.
When the cart stopped, Hagrid leaned against the wall for a while.
Shawn looked at the door of vault #713.
There was this feeling, of extreme uneasiness.
He heard the Goblin tell Hagrid that new items had been deposited in the vault.
Hagrid nodded, and told the goblin to open the door.
The goblin bowed and stroked the door, which just vaporised.
Shawn looked in the vault, and saw the source of his troubled feelings.
Against the wall, stood two purple scythes, the Soulbanisher and the souleater.
Cursed weapons, which he knew too well.
"Hagrid, don't touch those weapons. They're evil."
"What?"
"Those weapons can only be used by a handful of people, they drain the person who wields them. They also can also brainwash people and turn them to slaves."
Even the goblin was surprised, "You mean that the weapons are…"
"Sentient, yes," Shawn said, "I had the minor discomfort of meeting some slaves."
He walked to the scythes, he felt them quiver in anticipation.
"I will guard these, I will not be controlled by them."
He grasped the Soulbanisher, he felt the twisted energy mix with his own.
The scythe fell apart in particles of purple light.
Shawn then turned to the other, the souleater, he hoped that he had enough willpower to battle both scythes.
The scythe also fell apart as light, when Shawn had grasped it.

Shawn fell on his knees, using his hands as supports.
Hagrid and the goblin rushed to him.
"It's all right, I am in control," Shawn said, "I have dealt with them in the past, but never at the same time. It…overwhelmed me for a while."
He turned to face the non-humans, they gasped at him.
Shawn's green eyes now had 'moving' purple haze in them, making him look 'evil'.
"Take the item, then we can go."
Hagrid hesitated, but did what was asked.
After a brief stop at Shawn's vault, which wasn't really big in money but still had quite a bit, they went to the surface.

"Hey Hagrid, thank you for trusting me, with the vault."
"tís no problem."
"You'll figure it out someday."
"By the way, I never got yer name," Hagrid said.
"My name is Shawn Flame, although my friends call me Inferno."
"Where do ye go ta school?"

"I am eleven, I never got enrolled."
"Maybe ye can go ta Hogwarts?"
"Maybe I'll go to Hogwarts, it really depends on how the teachers are."
"Ye can trust all of them ."
"Can someone drop out or quit school?"
"I ne'er encountered one, who wanted to quit 'ogwarts before. Yea', I suppose."
"If they will send a letter, I'll consider it. Perhaps you could help me with supplies then?"
The half-giant looked a little shocked, "S-s-sure, it's fine by me."
"I'll send you letter with my decision, see you around."

"Yeah, bye."

Shawn walked to the leaky cauldron.
He went to his room, and started to meditate to focus his mind.
The soulscythes were photonweapons.
Which meant that some of the ancient weapons he and his friends used were already created.
"But without the photon, they are useless. So what is powering them?"
That question was quickly answered, "of course, magic, photon is a more powerful version of magic"
Shawn laid down in bed, before he fell asleep he asked
"Are there more photon weapons?"
