I had a bit of trouble writing this chapter, but I am very happy I took the extra time, and continued it, for a change there hasn't really changed that much from the first draft of this chapter, so yeah.

It feels however like this is one of those chapters that doesn't further the plot at all though, but that may just be me.

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter, nor do I own Life is Strange, I do actually think everyone already knew this but hey, who knows, maybe someone takes it seriously or something like that.

so, reviews, first of all I want to thank you for your reviews.

Raptor267: I do not mind, thank you for giving me a chance, but everyone has their own tastes, and I would be the last to claim that my stories are perfect, you are allowed this opinion, I still want to thank you for your review though, so thank you.

DeathCrawler: I hope this was fun enough, far to easy to be realistic, but fun nonetheless.(it was at least fun to write, haven't really got anyone nearby to proofread it, so, I've got no clue if it is fun to anyone but me)

Felab: I hope this is what you were hoping for, Harry has kind of been able to deal with the muggle part, and really, the magicals cared little enough for your comment to make sense

and last of all, to guest nr? : Thank you, I appreciate it.

Now then, enjoy this latest chapter, I hope you have just as much fun reading it, as I had writing it.

dealing with authority

"Drop your wand!" a female voice came from the entrance to the hallway.

Harry looked up to find half a dozen aurors standing in the standard combat formation, all their wands trained at him.

"I will be honest, I'm not lowering my wand, neither am I going to allow you to erase their memories." Harry spoke up, moving in between the group of aurors and the two girls still left behind him.

"We have to delete their memories, we both know this is protocol in these kinds of situations."

"Yes, but you do not know what is going on in this area right now, and I will be honest, if you did know what was going on here, you would have never come here in the first place." Harry spoke up again, noticing the fact wards were being brought up around the hospital.

"Did you not notice the strange energie in the air?" he continued. "I'm here to investigate it, and something is not happy I'm here, that is the reason those icicles lie all over the place."

Somehow after Harry had said this, most of the aurors actually relaxed their wand arms a bit more.

"You did notice the strange energie in this region then." Harry noted. "Why didn't you investigate?"

"Something forced our portkeys to go haywire until, well… now actually." The female auror spoke up.

"Fair enough I guess." Harry said moving towards one of the icicles, before picking it up and throwing it to one of the aurors to catch. "You know what this is?" He asked the man.

"Well, it feels like ice." He began. "It doesn't seem special. Where did they come from?"

"They were part of a group of five human looking things, thanks to the two of them, I found out they were made of some sort of liquid, and I came up with this way of fighting them off, as you can see, it worked."

"So what you are saying, is that there were five man that attacked you, and forced you to attack them?" The female auror spoke up once more.

"Only actual reason I attacked them, was because they threatened to kill everyone in this building if I didn't come with them, and if there is one thing I hate, is people threatening others to get to me." Harry said.

"Are you operating alone?" The auror finally asked.

"There will be 25 of my friends arriving in about 3 quarters of an hour." Harry started explaining, before he could continue however, he was cut off by the woman.

"Then I trust you to fix this situation you have here, we are understaffed as it is." The woman finally answered. "You will also have to deal with the local authorities."

"What?" Max and Chloe had been observing the interactions between the britt and the Americans, and had not been expecting all of this to go this way.

"We will do what we can." Harry finally said.

"Good luck." The female auror said before she and her auror regiment left the building, a few seconds later the wards dropped, and Harry could hear a multitude of pops before all he could hear were the sirens of the police vehicles outside.

"Okay…. That went way better than I expected." Harry finally said out loud.

"What were you expecting?" Chloe asked.

"Them forcing me to defend you against them trying to wipe your memories of magic." Harry said looking back to the two girls.

"They can do that?" Max asked with wide eyes.

"There are a lot of things we can do." Harry said. "And most times I do not agree in how we do it the way we do it." He continued. "If they would have wiped your memories we would have a bigger problem, as it could be that you wouldn't be able to remember all the times you traveled through time, which in the end would make it impossible for us to fix this."

"So you would actually defend us against them?" Chloe asked.

"Yes, I would have done everything in my power to stop that from happening." Harry said finally, as he transfigured a rock into a flask, before putting preservation charms on it, and putting one of the pieces of ice into it.

"What are you doing?" Chloe asked him.

"Getting some samples to try and find out what exactly they are made of." Harry said, shrinking the only psythe left and putting it in a evidence bag he had transfigured of a piece of plastic from a garbage can.

"Where do you think we could find some liquid hydrogen to drop on their remains?" Harry asked the girls beside him.

"Why do you need liquid hydrogen?" Chloe asked Harry.

"I want to keep my magic a secret for a bit longer, and it would be impossible to explain this away as pure coincidence." Harry said pointing at the chunks of ice over his shoulder, a smile grazing his face.

"Fair enough." Chloe said, before she walked to a storage closet, "It should be in here." She said as Harry and Max walked up to her.

"So, code, great…" Max said from beside Harry. "When do you think it has been entered last?"

"You are not using your power for such a trivial thing." Harry reprimanded her.

"What, how else are we going to get in there?" She asked Harry flabbergasted.

"I'll show you how." Harry walked to the door and with a quick "Alohomora." the door opened.

"You can do that?!" The girls asked in unison.

"Yes." Harry simply said, not feeling like he had to further explain everything he could and couldn't do to the two girls.

"So, now to find it." Harry said as the three started checking everything inside.

"Does one of you know the abbreviation for it?" Max asked Harry and Chloe from beside a small set of containers.

"It should be LN2, but I'm not sure." Chloe answered her friend as she walked up to the Vacuum containers.

"This is it then?" She asked stepping aside to show the tank to Harry and Chloe.

"Definitely it." Chloe said, as she tried to pick it up, "damn, this thing is heavy." She complained.

A quick second later, Harry walked up with a length of medical hose and some gloves.

"Well, let's do this then." Harry said, as he helped Chloe pick up the container. Together they walked back to the corridor, and put the container down.

"So why the hose?" Max asked.

"Because I cannot very well go ahead and use my hands, and the gas that is created in there for a small amount of exposure to oxygen should be cold enough to be able to make it look like everything froze a few minutes before we left. It should make this a bit easier to explain." Harry explained as Chloe helped him create a working model of his theoretical idea.

"Does everyone magical know this much about physics and chemistry." Max asked Harry.

"No, far from, most ignore the entire subjects in the first place." Harry explained. "I did not have the best childhood, and I spent a lot of my early life in the library, and I quickly got interested in both, physics more then chemistry, but I liked it enough"

The rest of the preparation stage was spent in silence, it was only broken when the entire hallway was covered in a thick layer of ice that the three spoke.

"I can't believe that actually worked." Harry laughed.

"Me neither to be honest." Chloe followed up.

"Wait, why did we do this when you did not expect it to work?" Max asked incredulously.

"Because not trying is worse then trying and failing." Harry said.

"And you had to admit, it was fun." Chloe spoke up from her place as they admired their handywork.

"True." Max laughed. "It felt like the old times." She spoke up.

"But this time, there was someone else besides the two of us to witness our collective genious." Chloe continued. The two actually broke down laughing at this.

"Now for the hard part." Harry said, an amused smile still grazing his face.

"What?" The two girls asked at the same time.

"Explaining to the local authorities." Harry said.

"If anyone asks, this is the story, we were cut off from the exit, and the two of you ran off to make that machine, whilst I kept them occupied, you used it on them, and I destroyed them, simple as that." Harry said.

In the meantime, auror HQ South

"Madam, why did you let him go without repercussion?" One of the lackeys asked the female Auror.

"The circumstances of everything that happened in the last week are suspicious at best, and we now know what may be going on in the area." She says scripticly.

"Who was that man anyway." Another one of her aurors asked her.

"That was the British war hero." She spoke up after a few seconds of complete silence. "We were warned he was in the country, you would not want to stand against him."

"He is bad?" One of her lackeys asked her once more.

"No, the opposite, he does what he feels is right, and you do not want to stand between him and that, at least, that is what I have been told by my colleagues in Europe and Russia."

At the entrance of the hospital

Harry, Max and Chloe walked outside to the sight of a few dosen police officers training their guns at the three.

Harry just walked on, pulling his trick badge out of his pocket he stated loud and clear:

"Lord Harry James Potter/Black, British Research and Abnormality Core, I need you to pick up a few people from an off ground location, these people will be helping me in my investigation in the goings on around this town."

"I take it you held of the attackers then?" One of the police officers asked.

"Yes, they have been dealt with." Harry finally said.

The police officers relaxed, and ushered Harry and the girls behind the police cars as two dosen police officers made ready to storm the now completely empty building.

"Why were we not informed of a British military operation taking place in the region?" One of the higher ups asked Harry.

"And why are these girls with you?" another asked.

Before any more questions could be asked however Harry silenced them with a raised arm.

"You were not informed, as we were not expecting for this to be this public, it was supposed to be a silent operation, but it seems plans have changed." Harry said. "And the reason these girls are with me, well, that is very easy, they are helping me on a case, which you should actually be working on, but it does seem like you are ignoring your duty to help them." Harry said.

"What case is that?" The officer asked him once more.

"The missing Rachel Amber." Harry said before continuing, "And the suspected rape of Kate Marsh." Harry said, quiet enough for the bystanders not to hear.

"But my main issue is the energy in the sky, weird weather patterns and the unplanned solar eclipse." Harry continued less silent.

"You want a panic?" The officer asked Harry.

"No I want people to know what Is going on, we may not know what is coming, but whatever it is, my team will try and fix it." Harry spoke up, louder now, as the crowd that still stood around them had started whispering.

"Where were those people you needed to pick up at?" The officer asked.

"I will give you coordinates of the dropping site in a few minutes." Harry said, moving to his car, the girls following him.

"I believe you handled that quite well." Chloe spoke up.

"Yeah, hella cool." Max spoke up.

"Thanks girls, I needed that." Harry said smiling, after which he opened up the back of the car.

"It seems I will need the heavy duty tools on me from now on." He muttered to himself as he opened a secret compartment, and pulling out a belt and bag.

He put both on, and attached a couple of pouches to the belt. Next he pulled out a small box from the same compartment, and handed both girls a small device, before taking one for himself.

"Put it in your ear, it is connected to our private network." He explained. As he put his earpiece in.

"Lightning to D.A. Do you copy?" Harry spoke as he had his finger on the earpiece activating it.

A few seconds went by before he was answered. "D.A. to Lightning, we got you loud and clear."

"You got the drop coordinates?" Harry asked as he fished a map from his glove compartment.

"Here are the coordinates." The person on the other side started listing a combination of numbers and letters. Harry quickly wrote them down before checking his map.

"Twelve miles out of town?" Harry asked out loud.

"We got reports that it was difficult to get into the area using portkeys, so we took precautions." The one on the other side explained.

"I will give the coordinates to the local authorities, make sure you look muggle, we are a muggle research unit called the British Research and Abnormality Core." Harry quickly explained.

"I will give the information necessary." The person on the other side responded once more.

"Seriously Dean?" Harry asked bemused, "Why are you so cryptic?"

"You started it!" Dean exclaimed from the other side of the line.

"I know, good to hear your voice once more mate." Harry said, still bemused looking at the two girls rolling on the ground laughing.

"See you in a bit Potter." Dean said before his connection disconnected.

"Seriously, that is awesome." Max exclaimed through her laughter.

"Agreed." Chloe said from her own place on the ground.

"Oh, and Chloe, could you bring this to the police officer we talked to earlier?" He asked her holding up the coordinates to her.

"Why me?" Chloe asked, generally curious(and it may have included just a bit of shock).

"Because you seem to have a bad name in this area, and I don't think you deserve that, so, small things can change the general picture." Harry explained.

"You don't know the half of it." Chloe muttered accepting the coordinates and walking off.

So, what did you think?

And as always, see something, mistakes, or other, please inform me, and I will see what I can do to fix it. Questions are always welcome, however, you are informed that asking questions may cause more questions, and when answered, the answers may cause even more questions.
