A/N:

I don't own Harry Potter… What? Expecting a bit? Well I'm still trying to open this box and now it is growling at me and I'm typing this under my desk hiding from it until it stops.

Chapter 8

Prologue: July 21, 1987

Marcus heart was pounding as he slowly opened his eyes to see his surroundings. He saw what looked liked the nurse's office, but bigger. He tried to sit up to see the approaching people, but stopped short from having his hands cuffed and a torso strap on him.

Marcus felt anger well up inside him and felt himself slipping into the darkness. He knew who was taking over, Juno, and Juno was going to freak.

Glinteye and Joyburn watched as the kid changed, right in front of their eyes. He went from the long black haired, one eyed, kid to a shorter black haired, two eyed, kid who looked like he had some cuts peaking out of the clothes he was wearing.

The kid started to pull and struggle against the restraints. He started to shout and scream, "I won't go back! You can't make me! I burned their house down once, I'll do it again!"

"Fascinating! I've never seen anything like this! Maybe if I do some experiments…"

"ENOUGH! Joyburn! No! Experiments! You! Kid! Stop! Freaking!"

Not expecting to be yelled at like that, Juno did just that.

"Good. Now, I was trying to get your name before you tried to attack me-"

Snicker "You mean when you got your ass handed to you."

"Joyburn! Shut! Up! Now, as I was saying-"

"You weren't trying to get my name."

"Wh-what?"

"You weren't trying to get my name. You were trying to get Marcus' name."

"...Ok. And you're not Marcus?"

"Yes."

"And you are…?"

"Yeah right. Like I'll tell you."

Grumbling to himself, Glinteye just grabbed a chair and sat down. "Why do I feel like this will take a long time?"

Chapter 8 September 2, 1991

A few moments after Juno had lit the candle, the smoke cleared to a point that people could see again. When it had fully cleared, Dumbledore got up and went through the tables to see if the bursts of spells the students had sent out had hit anyone and needed any help. What he noticed was not a single student was hit by any spells.

What no one noticed was the silent sigh that one student let out as they put away their wand, thinking of how stupid their brother was. Of course the students would send out spells crazily trying to hit him, not realizing they could hit someone else. It was thankful they had the foresight to set up a shield to protect the students from the spells.

POV change

An hour later, Juno was having the time of his life. He was running from the two third years who have found him for the third time. They were racing near the stairs of the seventh floor, when disaster struck…

POV change

Neville Longbottom was lost, hungry, and scared. His problems started when he woke up late and tried to get to the main hall on his own. Then when he thought he was making progress, he was attacked by Peeves, who got him even more lost. He thought his luck was turning when he finally found the stairs and was hoping to get back to the common room to just get his stuff and hope to get to class. That's when he heard shouts behind him and was turning to look, when he was bumped into hard and went over the railing.

POV change

The instant Juno saw the kid he bumped into go over the rail, he turned back, dodged between the two spells that were coming at him, and dove over the ledge after the kid. Grabbing the flailing kid, he flipped both of them where he was below the kid. Wrapping his arms and gripping the kid hard, Juno felt his shoulder slam against a railing of a moving stair and pop out of place. With great pain, Juno twisted a ring on his finger and felt the portkey activate, dragging him and the kid with him off.

When they finally hit the ground, the kid landed heavily on top of Juno at a bad angle, and there was a nasty crack as Juno's arm broke under the weight.

"Son of a… Ow! That hurts!"

The kid quickly got off and looked at Juno in awe.

"You saved my life!"

"Eh. My fault you were in danger. Now let's see… one arm dislocated, other broken… Dang. JOYBURN! YOU IN!"

It was at this, that Neville noticed that they were in a hospital wing.

"Where are we?"

"Gringotts infirmary."

"Why are we here? How did we get here?"

"Well this is where my emergency portkey takes me when I activate it. And why, didn't you here my story earlier?"

"No. When did you tell it?"

"At breakfast. Also I guess you technically you won the game."

"I'm so confused. What game? I got lost and missed breakfast, and I never heard about a game happening today."

Sigh "I hate repeating myself. Especially when I'm in pain, so WHERE IS THE DOC!"

Snigger "Sorry Lord War, I was in a council and had to be excused. But I at least get now a very nice prize from your father." Said Joyburn as he walked in.

Neville jumped at seeing the goblin that walked in. Juno just huffed.

"Let me guess, me hurting myself or me using the portkey?"

Snigger "Both. So what happened. Oh did you bring me a gift?" Noticing Neville for the first time.

"No. This is… I actually don't know your name."

"Neville."

"Last name?"

"Longbottom."

"Ah. This is Neville Longbottom. Not a gift."

Sigh "Haven't had a good human to experiment on in so long. Oh well, so how did you hurt yourself this time?" As Joyburn began going over Juno with an examination.

"Arms. Arms! ARMS!" Juno started shouted as said things were started to be painfully jerked around.

"Ah stop being a baby." Joyburn said, injecting something into the broken arm, and popping the dislocated shoulder into place.

"Hey I can stand most stab wounds, gunshots, and poisons. Broken bones are painful as hell."

"Language." Neville said without thinking. The other two in the room stopped and turned to stare at him. Juno opened his mouth to say something, but Joyburn covered his mouth.

"I don't recommend reprimanding Juno here without a good reason, else he'll do whatever it is way worse."

"Uh so I thought only portkeys made by the headmaster could get through the wards of Hogwarts. How did yours work?"

"HMM HM HMMM HMM HMMMM"

Joyburn removed his hand and smacked Juno upside the head. "Smart ass."

"The England goblin nation has five portkeys that bypass any wards placed by goblins. And the wards around Hogwarts is one example of this."

"Alright your arms are healed and I need to get back to the council meeting. I'll see you Juno." Joyburn called out as he left."

"Alright. Ok Neville, I'll tell you my story and tell you about the game and your reward later. We have to head back now before I get in even deeper sh… trouble." Juno linked his arm with Neville before he could say a word and turned his ring again to activate the portkey back.

Dropping them a few feet from the ground, about five feet, Neville would have fallen down if it weren't from Juno still holding him up.

A few minutes later, Juno found himself in the headmaster's office with several shouting teachers and a pensive headmaster looking at him.

A/N: Well chapter 8… I have been looking at the older chapters to make sure I keep a few details consistent and notice how I missed quite a few minor to major words. Whoops… Sorry about that. I'll make sure to try not to do that as much.

Anyways, any comments, feedback, or mistakes you notice, let me know. Till next time.
