edit: 19-02-'18, changed the wording a bit of a few sentences, fixed previously missed mistakes(again more then I actually expected, thank god I reread my stories once in a while to try and stay focused...), and some punctuation errors once more.

Wauw, I am pleasantly surprised by this chapter, this turned out far shorter than I expected, but I personally love it!

I hope all of you like it, any critique, idea, or question, just ask away.

If you see mistakes or anything of the like, just tell me(preferably in a way where I can actually thank you or state why I chose for certain things, or answer in general.)

and then about the reviews, thank you guys, for bothering to spend a bit of time to do so,

Felab: Personally I don't believe Ron is useless, I would quicker put his loyalties in question then state that he is useless, chess is quite hard, and Ron excels in it, so not useless, but if you see how many time through the seven years he spends in one pitty fight or another, generally caused by jealousy, well, let's just keep it with my earlier statement, Harry can not be sure that Ron is and will be always by his side. and on a completely different note, thank you for telling me last chapter was good enough, it means a lot to me.

Aaron Leach and DeathCrawler: Thank you both for your reviews, I really was unsure about the last chapter, I am so happy that you enjoyed it though.

yue: thank you for inspiring me to look back to this story, I appreciate it, I know this was before last chapter was put out, but still, thank you.

I believe that was that, so enjoy this chapter.

The call goes out

"Harry! It's so good to hear from you! How are you? Where are you? What have you got yourself into now?" Ah… Hermione, always knowing him far to well… and always asking the right questions.

"Hey Hermione, I'm doing quite alright, still look like I am no day over 18, Arcadia Bay, USA, I seem to have gotten myself involved with something, and it seems I'll not be able to fix this alone. How are things over there?"

"Oh, Harry, how do you do it, always involved with something." Harry heard a sigh before she continued, "Well, Ron and I broke up, it was just not working out between us, he is the head of the hitwizard department now, whilst Susan, you know, Bones has taken up the role of head of Law enforcement in general."

"That's good to hear, and you, Nev, Luna, or anyone else? I'm sorry to say that I'm not completely surprised to hear that the two of you broke up." Harry had a very small smile on his face when saying it, it really was a miracle the two of them had lasted for so long.

"Well, I don't know if you have heard, but someone submitted my name to become minister of magic, and somehow without me even knowing it, I got the job…"

"That sounds like George to me, but I don't believe he has the contacts for such a thing…" This was followed by a minute of silence from both ends. "Do you enjoy it though?" Harry finally asked.

"Well, I kind of do, but I would rather have kept my job as a spell creator, this is so boring." This got Harry actually in a fit of laughter.

"Hermione Granger, the one woman who read every book in the library of Hogwarts, complains about a job being boring." Harry heard a snort of suppressed laughter coming from the other side of the line.

"That was the other's their reactions as well. But enough about me." She paused for a second thinking about how she should bring the next few subjects.

"Neville is a teacher at Hogwarts, Minerva is still the headmistress, Poppy is still the great nurse, as faithful to the health of her students as ever, Luna helps her there on her off days when she is not helping out in St. Mungo's or me if I can't figure out something about a spell, or ward." She was interrupted by Harry interjecting,

"I presume Nev is teaching Herbology then? And Hermione, are you finally admitting that someone is actually better at something then you are?" this was again met by laughter from Hermione.

"Yes Harry, just like I know you are better in flying and in the practical use of spells, Luna is amazing at arithmancy, and she was able to figure out quite a few things I could not, she is also amazing in thinking outside the box, as you know, which is not my expertise."

"Hermione, we both know that you are an amazing witch, You're ranked second in the world remember? Luna is third, followed by Susan. Of course Minnie is first at the moment, It's weird how both top three's are filled with british wizards and witches at this point."

"Tss, says the number one strongest wizard of the world, both in power and knowledge."

"Don't even bring that up Hermione, I don't really count as a wizard since that day, I told you this before, and what do they even base that off of? Me destroying Voldemort after Nev destroyed the last Horcrux?"

"Yeah… most likely." Hermione said, "But Nev is ranked second in that list, so I'm not sure about it."

"Dennis stept into his brother's footsteps, and is one of the prophets photographers, his work is generally seen as quite good." It was clear she wanted to mention "in comparison with Colin," but Harry was thankful she did not say that part out loud, colin was one of the many who did not make it, and he shouldn't even have been on the school grounds at the time of the final battle.

"But back to the subject at hand," Harry looked at the notes he had taken in the extend of the day, "could you get the DA back together in about 12 hours?"

"Yeah, I think I can get them together, why do you need all of the DA?" She asked Harry.

"Well, ehm…" And so it was that harry told Hermione the full extent of the goings on in the small town of Arcadia Bay.

Half an hour later

"Well, Hermione, I'll see you in about 11 hours I promised Teddy I would call him."

"See you Har, be safe."

"You too."

The call was disconnected and Harry took a few minutes thinking about his conversation with Hermione, this quickly strayed to the conversation he had had this afternoon with Chloe and Max.

It took him over 10 minutes before he decided it was about time he should call Teddy.

It took two tries before Teddy answered.

"Harry! It's been so long!" Harry saw his hair change from brown to yellowish, brown.

"I'm so sorry Teddy, I really don't have a reason for not being able to call you for a while." Harry said to his godson.

"I forgive you Harry." The boy's hair changed into the same mob of hair Harry had. "What have you been upto this time?" Harry burst into laughter.

"Have you been with Hermione last summer holiday?" Harry asked the boy with a huge smile.

"Yes, we had so much fun! We went to this waterpark, and it was awesome! You should have been there!" This got another laugh out of Harry.

"I would love to, next time I stop by, we will go, okay?"

"Harry, you haven't been to Britain since back then." Teddy said, his eyes watery, hair changing to a mix of red an yellow.

'I buggered this up big time… angry and sad, damn potter, how do you do it…' Harry thought to himself.

"You know what, when you are back home for the christmas holidays, I'll come over, after tomorrow the others probably are going to hunt me down if I don't anyway." Teddy actually burst out laughing at this.

"I don't know what is so special about tomorrow, but if you see them, yes, they definitely will pull you back to Britain." Teddy said hair turning a bit more to the Pink his mother usually had back in the day.

The two talked for an entire hour before Teddy had to go, because it was a weekday, and well, school and all that.

"I'll keep that promise Teddy, see you next time, if not earlier, I'll be there when the train arrives."

"You definitely will, otherwise I will tell gran about you not keeping your word." Harry paled considerably. Aunt Andy really was frightening when angered

"Oh, bugger, ehm, I'll definitely be there, work hard teddy."

"You better, and I will, bye Har." Harry could see the smile on the boy's face, and it warmed his heart.

The call disconnected, and Harry quickly made a note in his mail that he should get back to Britain before the 19th of December.

After he was done with this he put his Laptop away and lay down on the bed for some well deserved rest.

That night

Harry stood in front of a barn in the middle of nowhere, a dirty blonde girl stood in front of the wooden barn-like building.

"Protect her, I know you can, protect her at all cost." The girl turned around and Harry saw dead grey/green eyes looking back at him. "Protect her where I can not."

The girl disappeared, The ground beneath his feed crumbled before turning into white concrete, walls of white grew around him, camera equipment materialised from the ground, nothing happened for a second and all before him vanished once more.

This time the ground changed to grass, small parts of the ground were well trodden, broken cars, a bus, a boat, a sign, and a lot of junk slowly appeared all around him. in one corner he saw a man pointing a gun at a girl, another girl lying on the ground, seemingly paralyzed, everything disappeared again before Harry could take in enough to work out where and who they were.

A black overcast sky, the sound of the wind pounding against the buildings around him, a boat flying towards the lighthouse, a great whirlwind above the water.

Harry sat straight up in bed, breathing heavily, his clothes clinging to him with his own sweat.

"What have I gotten myself into now." He muttered to himself before moving to the shower.
