I had a fine career, had retired and had downsized my collection of artworks and had even made out a will leaving my younger brother to handle it.
What a surprise when he got cancer and passed away within 4 months. I was shocked. I had wished that magic in the Harry Potter stories were true and real so he could have avoided the cancer.
So one night I am having a strange Harry Potter type dream wherein there is a magical universe where Harry Potter resides and so does the grandson of Grindelwald and Morgana Le Fay.
I wake up and find I am in a younger body, that of possibly a young boy around 10 years of age. I am in what appears to be a hospital bed. I am fully awake now and start to panic because tubes are in my throat and nose and my hands are tied to the bed rails.
Nurses come running into the room. The head nurse grabs a phone on the wall and says that the boy is awake, now after being comatose for five years.
It takes them awhile to explain to me what is going on. I spend three months in rehab getting my strength back, learning general knowledge all over again.
After three months I have used the walker machine to assist myself to walk up to the directors office. I am told I was in a accident that killed both my parents. They were wealthy enough to afford my care and stay at this rehab facility after being discharged from the coma facility.
I had family they had tried contacting but that family wanted nothing to do with me, unless I gave them the family fortune. I told the dr that family was why our vehicle had the accident to begin with and why both my parents were dead.
I asked about a second cousin to my mom if they could be contacted to take me in. They were contacted and said they would do so.
A month later I was staying with them when strange things began happening around me, bouts of accidental magic was my guess. They would smile from time to time when it happened.
My most memorable feat of magic is when the younger cousin knocked me into the swimming pool and down I went to the bottom. Instead of drowning I visualized the water in the pool riding upwards, not flowing over the sides of the pool though. I walked over to the steps, took a deep breath and walked up the steps through the water to walk out past the water, out past the edge of the pool. Then the water splashed back into the pool.
My younger cousin tripped and fell into the pool, at which time all the water began to avoid his body. He slid down to the bottom of the pool.
My adopted parents come out with cameras taking photos for later. Congratulations they exclaim, finally I am doing magic. They are so happy for me.
What the adopted family does not know is that I am the grandson of Grindelwald and Morgana Le Fay. There daughter had an affair with a Tom Riddle and I was the result of that. When her dad discovered she was pregnant he took her and used her in a ritual and discovered one of my ancestors was Sylvester Slytherin while two others were Rowena Ravenclae and Goodrich Griffendore. The 4 great great (x10) grandparent was related to the Hufflepuff family.
So he did a second ritual and sent his daughter forward thru time about 45-50 years, at which time I was spontaneously born while she died. I was rushed to a hospital and kept there until I was almost five years of age, then transferred to the other hospital I woke up in around 1960.
It was in 1960 the first time I was killed by electrical means. I recovered though when a lightening bolt brought me back.
So now I am in a different body, that of a small child though not too small. With all my previous knowledge intact.
A few months later during the summer and I get a letter carried by a owl, delivered to me. It is my Hogwarts West letter from the magic school located out by the northeast of Convict Lake, California.
I take the shuttle train from the Newhall-Castaic area which heads northward over Tehatchpi Pass, west of Red Rock Canyon and then heads westward one mountain range westward. It then travels northward pass China Lake, then Kennedy Meafows, Lone Pine, west of Mt Whitney, east of the Rock Creek Lakes chain of lakes, then where Lake Crowley resides the rail line comes back to the east side of the Sierra Nevada's near Convict Lake.
There was Hogwarts West located there against the mountain immediately south of the Hotel built there for those who could afford it and those who paid in gold, namely Bit Coin Golden papers.
Hogwarts West had been duplicated by several American Mages so America could have there version of Hogwarts.
After seven years of Hogwarts West, which also taught mundane ( non-magical ) subjects I had my Owls (15), Newts (12) and a AA degree in Social Studies. I then scholarship to UC Bakersfield, taking classes in the higher mathematics involving Nuclear Physics and Astrophysics.
With two years with extra classes and a time turner I did 4 years of work in two years and got a BS in both subjects. In another year I had an MS in both subjects.
I then purchased airline tickets to England and Scotland. I became aware that I was being followed by the AIC and the 6-IM branches of American and English government.
You see when someone comes across as near genius in both those math subjects and gets a degree from HG-West and a UC university you get the attention of the magical government and the mundane government.
They were tracking me and would do so up to the point I went into the British Minstry of Magic. So I took in all the mundane sights in London and a few wizarding sights as well.
The AIC, 6-IM, & MI-5 kept tripping over each other's feet including even those wizards from the DOM.( department of mystery). I toured England for a week, then flew to Scotland, teleported off the plane when it took off, booked myself into the hotel before the plane landed and then teleported thru the wards at the DOM, with my custom made ward breaking portkey device which also allowed teleporting.
I went into the death chamber, unpacked the hydroelectric device that ran on moisture in the air, connected it to the veil and a device hidden in the floor raised upwards. It was a dialing home device, albeit a magical one.
The doors were opened and a ward was raised up around the veil and myself. Then I dialed the codes of Merlin, buried under the Tor.
I sat down on a bench and suggested all those watching do the same. The portal opened to resemble that of a television screen. An older wizard dressed gentleman came into view.
He introduced himself as Merlin. He then said that in the year he had received a forecast on, 2029 a planetoid would come into a near earth orbit and just barely miss the earth, but would damage the ley lines of the earth.
When came around 7 years later in 2036 it would destroy them and their would be a magical cascading failure effect as magic the world over would fail.
The non-magical would then be able to discover the magical whose magic has failed. When their magic fails then they die.
The Minister of Magic tries to deny this, but the Merlin character in the portal casts a spell from the portal onto the Minister of Magic covering him in plastic tape to shut him up.
Then I get up and Merlin picks up a shrunken trunk. He passes it thru the portal for me to take a hold of. He tells me the interest the past 1,000 years should have amassed into a fortune.
Merlin asks the minister who those previous people were that they tossed thru the portal when it was not turned on.
Merlin is told this room is called the DEATH CHAMBER and the portal device is known as the VEIL OF DEATH. That those tossed thru were criminals. Merlin tells them he wiped their memories and let them have new ones and they are now proper members of society.
Merlin looks in my direction and says you have a few years to build the transport ships and get all the magic stuff off the earth. He looked at me and then said, use the warp drive configuration. Space-X has a man working on it.
Build the ships in Utah between Hurricane and California City. The land there has the colored rock you'll need. Then the power devices I had hooked up start making noises. He says goodbye and the portal closes as the images fade.
The ward comes down as I grab the power device and teleport back out thru their wards, although I see a redirection ward to Hogwarts East, into the Great Hall. It's easier to take the redirection than fight it.
I appear in the great hall and I create a ward around me to protect me.
