Some time later…
Thanks to Harry's blackmail, Draco Malfoy had begun to behave like a good boy. Draco has been fighting back, though, trying to get the evidence away from Harry but all attempts failed.
Draco telling Professor Snape about how Harry is blackmailing him? Snivellus tried to get the evidence away from Harry but all Snivellus got was a hypnosis stare from Harry about him forgetting the evidence that Draco had told him about.
Well… That and have Snivellus give Draco detention for lying and tricking a professor with no solid evidence that his accusation was real.
Draco telling his father? Lucius tried to have the Ministry arrest Harry under the rights that Harry was threatening Draco and his family. So, the ever so loyal puppet, Fudge had Aurors arrest Harry and they did just that.
…
Psst! They failed like everyone else.
They managed to arrest Harry, but when they looked for 'evidence' that Harry was threatening Draco, all they found was a bunch of notes of Draco threatening Harry that he would get expelled from Hogwarts and his father would ensure it as well with his 'puppet minister'; Fudge.
Truth is; Harry used his Hypnosis to have Draco write those letters and even signed it, then make him forget that he even wrote the letters to begin with. When the aurors read the letters, they released Harry Potter and arrested Draco Malfoy instead, took the evidence to Fudge and the Ministry.
To put it gently; Draco's activities were now being watched by Aurors and Lucius managed to keep his job but has been warned that he is no longer allowed to commune to Fudge, who now felt lost without his 'master' like Puppet without a puppet master to pull the strings.
Right now, at the present time, both Gryffindor and Slytherin houses were now doing a class of Defense Against the Dark Arts. Lupin was in charge of class and Harry was paying attention. Harry knew what this class was going to be and the class was working on a spell known as 'Riddikulus'. Before Harry could listen in on the chatter, he went a snap go through his head and felt a burning sensation at his left arm shoulder. Before Harry could investigate what is was, he heard the class going to test the spell on a Boggart they had and went to watch.
However, nobody noticed a pair of eyes from on top of the ceiling. It was a pair of emerald green eyes that were slit. The eyes attention wasn't on the class, but rather a certain vampiric wizard. The creature grinned when finding its' target.
"Now, do it Neville." Lupin said as he opened the door and Professor Snape came out.
"Riddikulus!" Neville said and suddenly, Snape was wearing a different set of clothes. This made a lot of people laugh at the sight and it confused Snape "Now get in line and I want to picture your greatest fear and turn it into something funny."
When Lupin finished those words, he played his music and Ron was the first to go. When he did, Snape looked at him before he began to look like he was changing before he became a giant spider like one in the Forbidden Forest. Ron instantly began to whine at the look at it while Harry took a note of it.
Ron pointed his wand at the giant spider "Riddikulus!"
Instantly the spider had skates on each foot of its' leg and it couldn't keep its' balance and it fell to the ground while everyone laughed. Next was a Gryffindor Girl (totally forgot her name) and the Boggart looked at her before it morphed into a giant spider. Harry wrote that down on the girl and he saw he was next. The snake was about to strike when…
"Riddikulus!" The girl shouted.
The snake changed to a Jack-In-A-Box. Everyone laughed at it and the girl left and Harry stepped forward. After a minute, the toy morphed into…
Winnie!?
She snarled and launched herself at Harry with the intent to kill. Harry wouldn't and couldn't fight against her, because he felt like he would be hurting her and he didn't want to harm his zing. When she was halfway to him, the room suddenly darkened and Lupin was moving to defend Harry. However, when she was about to hit Harry, she was grabbed by the waist by a giant hand.
A lot of people screamed at what caught her. It looked like a puppet but it was completely black, it's face was white with black lines below the eyes, it had a demented smile on its' face with sharp teeth and had pure soulless eyes. It also had long fingers that were wrapped around it.
"Hello." The nightmarish puppet said with a echoing dark sinistering voice "You're not afraid, are you?" The Puppet asked to the Boggart-Winnie. Indeed, the Boggart couldn't morph cause this thing held no fear. The puppet threw the boggart back and held a pose in front of Harry "Well, maybe we should change that?"
The puppet's body glowed red and suddenly, a white flash occurred and everyone sees the puppet was now replaced with a black robotic insect-like creature. It had black metal chitin, dark green insect wings and back shell. It had emerald green slit eyes and it had sharp teeth with fangs, which it was grinning.
"Welcome." The creature said, the voice was now different but the dark, echoing, sinister tone was still there "I will be your NIGHTMARE for the evening. So tell me… What are you afraid of?" The Boggart began to back off, still unable to morph into the creatures' greatest fear. Then the metal creature spoke once more, this time his voice was that of a rasping voice "I know you fear ME. You can't outrun your fears; your actions, your choices. All you can do it HIDE." The metal creature closed its' eyes before opening them, revealing them to be blood red eyes with white center in the pupil and black sclera "But in the end… You will suffer like so many others…" Suddenly, a flash happened and the Boggart was surrounded by Nightmare Animatronics "Already have." The animatronics began to laugh, their laughter was echoing and sinister and all of them grabbed the Boggart before they all disappear as well as the boggart.
"W-What is that thing!?" Draco shouted in fear and horror, he had already pissed himself as many others in the room had.
The metal creature turned to Harry before it blinked, its' eyes back to normal. The creature, then, turned around a bit, revealing a familiar 'DE' symbol on its' metal left arm shoulder.
"Y-You're from the Phantom Consortium!?" Harry said in shock, making a few who have heard the name before gasp in shock.
The metal creature smiled and nod "My name is Shade; Shade the Changeling."
"Why call yourself that?" Winnie asked.
Her answer came in the form of Shade turning black with red markings before a flash happened and when they looked, they see a Dark Grey fur anthropomorphic wolf with a silver chest fur, white gloves, dark grey and dark green shoes, and emerald green eyes.
"Because I can change my appearance whenever I want, whoever I want, and whatever I want." The wolf, Shade, replied with a smirk.
"Wow." Harry said with a surprise expression "So… what are you here for?"
"Oh, yeah. That." Shade said before he held up a hand and a red glow appeared there before it formed into a letter with the symbol of 'DE' "Read this."
Shade handed the letter to Harry, who took it and opened it before pulling out the paper inside, He began to open it. When the view of the contains was about to be seeable-
There was jerk and we see Shade in front of the screen "No you don't. Danny wants this private, no need to spoil the surprise for you viewers."
Shade angles the camera to show Harry reading the letter before he gasped in shock.
"Are you sure this is right!?" Harry asked to Shade, careful not to show the viewers what was written.
"Yeah, Emerald wouldn't have sent me if it wasn't true." Shade replied.
"By the way; who is Emerald Pie?" Harry asked to Shade "I haven't heard of him before when I was last I was with the Eclipse crew."
"Because he was created recently, like I." Shade said with a smirk "Believe it or not; he was requested by one 'PinkieScootalooSweetieDash' though he won't be deployed anytime soon."
"Anything I should know about him?" Harry asked while hiding the paper into his pocket "I have a feeling I'm going to get a headache from him."
Shade laughed as he let go of the camera "Well, he is a twin to a 4th Wall Breaking, Laws of Physics & Gravity Breaker, and the essence of Laughter herself from a certain magical land filled with equines."
"Ok, a good warning then." Winnie said, a bit nervous.
Shade nodded before a white portal opened next to him and a new figure stepped out. This figure had black jacket with a orange fur collar. He had a pair of red fingerless gloves and his skin was yellow. His head's skin was black with orange hair. He had yellow teeth and had blue lines that went down from below his eyes. His right eye's pupil was a white dot with red sclera. His left eye's pupil had a blue outer layer, orange inner layer, and the center of it was black dot and his left eye's sclera was red. He wore black shorts with a single blue line on the left and right side of his shorts. His leg skin was red and he wore black slippers. All around him, errors popped around him. The figure looked like a 11 to 12 year old boy.
"Shade, it's t-t-t-t-t-time to go." The boy said, his voice sometimes glitching.
"Hey there, Error Naruto." Harry said before seeing Shade approach Error Naruto "Nice to see you again."
Error Naruto looked at him before smiling "Hate to cut t-t-t-t-this short, but we-e-e-e-e have to get going. S-s-s-s-s-see you later, Harr-r-r-ry Dracula."
Harry nods and Shade goes through the portal before he was followed by Error Naruto, who closed the portal behind him.
"Well…" Lupin finally said "Class is dismissed, for now."
Everyone nodded and most of the class began to head to their dorms to get a new pair of pants and underwear.
Hello everyone and thanks for reading this. Many wondered why it took long to wait but I had to think of a good fear for Harry since Dementors weren't going to cut it. There was also a request and some ideas coming through and recording them. Hope you like the description of one; Shade the Changeling. Emerald Pie will be introduce in the next episode due to it being released on a certain date in April.
As for the letter business; you will learn. I WILL promise you that I WILL finish the next Equestrian Maelstrom episode very soon as what I have plan is coming fast that actually involve both. Also, thank you again all.
Also, I don't know who and I forget to record it so I'm relying on memory, I was asked about Johnny of Hotel Transylvania about when he was going to show up, become Mavis' zing and Harry gets his half-brother. Well, to answer that question; I am going to do it at Year 4 when Harry is going to Mavis' birthday.
Anyway, thank you for reading.
