Chapter 6 – Halloween

Neville was having a rough time at Hogwarts at the moment. He had been looking forward to leaving the manor and his grandmother for a long time and her remarks that Neville should be living up to his fathers legacy had been hurting him for a long time. Sadly he was still struggling in the lessons and no matter what he did he just couldn't perform magic. People like Weasley and Malfoy had taken to calling him a squib which only added on to his problems with his confidence which was quickly being shot. Thankfully he was still at the top of the class for Herbology and he really enjoyed talking with Harry. Being in Hufflepuff meant that you could hear many rumours about the school and funnily enough most of the rumours surrounding Harry were proving to be false. Any accusation that he was a dark wizard was shot pretty quickly b the way he would act around bigotry and though Neville would concede that Harry could be a bit arrogant and uncaring he knew that he was a good guy deep down and he could tell that Harry hadn't led the easiest life and seemed to be very closed off to most people. The rumours of his magical prowess however were true. The only problem Harry seemed to have was that he kept overpowering his spells which made them overreact. When he cast a Lumos spell it blinded the entire class. Harry seemed to have the opposite problem that Neville had as while Neville couldn't seem to find the power to perform a spell, Harry couldn't seem to not overpower his spells.

One night Neville went to the kitchens which were practically next to the common room to grab something to eat and began talking to the elves. He asked them if they knew somewhere in the castle where he could practise magic in secret and they led him to the most impressive thing Neville had ever seen. They showed him the room of requirement which he marvelled at and would spend every day after classes there to train and practise his magic as well as his elemental abilities. Surprisingly Neville had fewer problems practising with his elemental powers and while it was hard work it didn't feel like it did when doing normal magic as he could easily feel the earth below him. When trying out spells from class it was as if something was blocking him but with his element it was just difficult.

OoO The Elemental Order OoO

Life for Harry however seemed to settle into a routine after the first week at Hogwarts. Malfoy had wizened up and left Harry alone instead deciding to target Weasley who actually agreed to a duel in the trophy room at midnight like an idiot. Apparently Malfoy didn't show up like a coward to the surprise of no one but was telling people that there is a three headed dog on the third floor and Harry scoffed at that. Why the hell would a three headed dog be in the middle of the school.

Classes were going great and Harry was near the top of the class except that Hermione was better at the theory then anyone else and, to her credit was actually really good at performing magic. In fact Harry, Hermione, Daphne and Sera were all at the top of every class and seemed to be in a league of there own compared to the others. Neville seemed to be good as well but it was as if something was holding him back and Harry couldn't tell what it was. Harry had realised that while he could get away with beating bully's by physically beating them up he would have to learn how defend himself with magic as even Harry would admit that he was very good at making enemies so he would often go to the library and study up on more advanced defensive spells so that by now he knew the majority of the second year spells including Expelliarmus, Impedimenta, Incarcerous and was quickly getting the hang of the Protego spell. It was hard though and Harry realised that it was probably due to the fact that his magic was mature enough to deal with the power needed to perform them. Thus Harry quickly decided to rely on Protego only when he couldn't dodge an incoming spell. He had found that quite a few spells that he had been taught by Quirrel in class were worthless I mean really what was the point of a tickling charm or a leg locker curse when he could tie people up and blast them into a wall.

Harry was also getting along with his fellow Slytherins and enjoyed his time in the common room. They were fun to be around and Harry was glad that he was a member of Slytherin house despite the bigotry of some members though even they had respect for Harry as he was proving to be one of the top members of Slytherin and many commentated that members of the other three houses seemed to be more friendly to them.

One morning Hedwig had arrived with a Nimbus 2000 that Dumbledore had bought for him which was a surprise and Flint was jumping for joy over it. It was currently the fastest broom on the market so Flint immediately began scheduling the pitch for the Quidditch team. Harry was enjoying his time with the Quidditch team a lot even though the training was brutal at first but enjoyable and was loving it and eager to prove that he deserved his spot. Higgs wasn't happy that he couldn't be the seeker for Slytherin and was even less so when he saw that Harry was actually as good as Flint said he was. Harry actually got along with the team when on the pitch. All of his teammates were in the Pureblood Supremacy camp on the pitch they all disregarded that as they all loved the game of Quidditch. He was fascinated at the planning that Flint would do for the games and Flint quickly took him under his wing and seemed to be preparing Harry for becoming the captain after he left. While Harry wasn't fond of the tactics that the Slytherin team employed which were to use the fact that were all the size of a wall and smash into there opponents even if it would be a foul but Harry understood why Flint did this. It was because the team lacked pure talent and as such needed a way to eliminate that disadvantage. Harry understood why but it didn't sit well with him as it felt a bit cheap and Harry didn't want people to think that he had to cheat to win, he wanted people to see that he was talented. While he disliked the praise of being The Boy-Who-Lived because he didn't feel like he earned that title he was more than happy at the praise that he could be considered a prodigy cause he had earned that.

The only problem for Harry right now was that Halloween was coming up and with a celebratory feast for the fall of Voldemort and Harry really wasn't looking forward to celebrating the anniversary of his parents death. It showed as he had been getting more and more moody as the day got closer and people actually got out of his way in fear, which at any other time would have made Harry laugh. His friends were there for him and tried to be understanding but Neville was able to get Harry out of his funk during Herbology the day of Halloween.

"I get it Harry, it's a crap day for you but remember that you weren't the only one that lost family to You-Know-Who," Neville said "I did and so did Susan but tomorrow we will spend the honouring the fallen and so should you."

Harry was thoughtful at that. It was a nice sentiment but he wanted more. He wanted to inflict his pain onto those that deserved it and those that were responsible for his crap life. Though he conceded that he could at least spend a night celebrating the fact that his parents were willing to die for him.

"Thanks Neville, I'll do that," Harry said "You know you're more vocal in Herbology."

"I like Herbology and I feel comfortable hear," Neville replied

"You should be more like this all the time," Harry said

"I'm not comfortable doing that, I'm not exactly someone people want to friends with," Neville mumbled

Harry just sighed. It was kinda sad that he seemed to be holding himself back.

"Fair enough but you have to at some point," Harry told him.

"I know but not now," Neville stated as they continued the lesson.

After Herbology they had charms and were starting the levitation spell and Harry was in a better mood but still a little angry. Most people seemed to be struggling except for the usual stand out's of Harry, Daphne, Sera and Hermione. Ron was waving his wand like a moron when Hermione stopped him and tried to give him advice.

"You do it then if your so bloody clever," Ron scowled out.

Hermione did so with ease as her feather floated in the air like it weighed nothing.

"Oh very well done miss Granger take 15 points for Griffindor," Flitwick said making Hermione have that superior look she always got when she was praised academically. Ron just looked pissed off and folded his arms scowling. Truth be told Ron was beginning to bore Harry. He was so one dimensional that it was too predictable to know what he would say so Harry had taken to avoiding the ginger moron as he just wasn't fun to wind up anymore. The idiot thought that that Slytherin house was evil and that's it, no personal vendetta, no reason why, just pure ignorance. He was truly the most ignorant idiot Harry had seen in his entire life. At least Crabbe and Goyle stuck around Malfoy for his money which made Harry have a tiny bit of respect for the apes. Needless to say Harry's bad mood about Halloween reflected in his class work and he began showing up Granger by making his feather fly within the air like it was nothing, performing complex moves and making Granger's attempt look worthless.

"My word Mr Potter this is truly impressive take 20 points for Slytherin," Flitwick commentated. The smug look Hermione had disappeared as she looked angry at Harry who just returned the snug grin at Hermione as if to say that she wasn't special in any way.

Soon enough the class ended and Harry was quickly accosted by Hermione outside the classroom.

"Do you enjoy insulting me?" Hermione asked angrily.

"Yes I do," Harry replied bluntly, "I enjoy wiping that smug grin of your face."

"Why? Must you you be an insensitive arse all the time?" Hermione retorted angrily.

"Yes, Seeing your face when you realize that you aren't the best warms my heat," Harry said dramatically.

"Why do you have to be an complete dunderhead on today of all days?!" Hermione yelled.

"And what's so special about today?" Harry asked looking for a trigger to set off his anger over Halloween.

"Because today is the anniversary of You-Know-Who's death," Hermione explained like it was obvious.

"Oh well feel free to celebrate you bushy haired bitch," Harry yelled back "I'm sure you will enjoy celebrating this glorious day like the stupid, ignorant, worthless, buck toothed, moron you are."

Harry announcement hit Hermione in all her weak spots as she ran away crying. Really what was the point in fighting a master of the craft.

"You really are the most insensitive git of all time," Sera commentated.

"Do I look like I care Tiny?" Harry replied still angry,

"Why those idiots beside you hang around you baffles me," Sera said "I thought that you were a good person but I can clearly see that you are nothing but a whiny little bitch."

"What did you call me?!" Harry said angrily. Now was not the time to try his patience.

"I called you a whiny little bitch," Sera said beginning to mock Harry "Oh boo hoo I lost my parents today. Woe is me. It is the most pathetic thing I've ever seen."

Sera walked away looking for Hermione while leaving Harry stunned at what happened. Someone just took the mick out of him losing his parents yet it made him think, was he truly being an arsehole? Harry eventually decided to apologize to the two of them later on as he walked down to the celebratory feast that he despised.

"You know she's right," Daphne said and Harry looked at her confused "You have been a bit pathetic."

Harry just sighed at this. He knew that she was right at he would have to correct it as he was unhappy with himself.

"Do you want to piss him off Daphne?" Tracey asked concerned for her friends.

"No, but I don't do bitchy friends," Daphne replied harshly.

"Neither do I," Harry replied "I'm sorry you lot, I shouldn't be putting all my crap on other people."

"No you shouldn't," Daphne replied before smirking "You should put your crap in a toilet."

"Or Malfoy," Blaise suggested

"Same thing," Tracey remarked as the four started laughing when they ran into Snape.

"Well, well Mr Potter, I hear you've been whining about the upcoming feast," Snape remarked "Such a shame that our saviour has turned into this."

"You're just upset that you lost your beloved master 10 years ago," Harry replied

Snape was angry at Harry now and replied "Yet you don't hear me whining about it Potter. You truly are proof that your parents sacrifice was indeed worthless."

Snape quickly left and Harry's bad mood had returned by now as he begrudgingly sat down at the feast. The sight of a sea of people enjoying themselves wasn't helping Harry's mood one bit.

"Oh come on Harry," Tracey said to the scowling boy "Yeah it's a crummy day but at least after this it's over and you can go to bed."

Harry actually smiled at this. Tracey was always able to see the bright side of a situation "Thanks Trace."

"Anytime Harry," Tracey said smiling back.

"Hey Harry what did you say to those two Griffindor first years?" Zoe asked Harry

"Oh he was acting all moody so decided to vent on them and may have gone too far," Blaise explained.

"May have?! He destroyed Granger," Tracey add on.

"I know all right I'll fix it tomorrow," Harry said tiredly "Why are you asking anyway Zoe?"

"Cause from what I've heard they're both in the third floor toilets crying," Zoe explained

"Crap," Harry muttered "I'll apologize tomorrow."

"And where is my apology Potter?" Malfoy demanded

"For what?" Harry responded

"For everything you've done to me," Malfoy answered irritably

"You deserved it Malfoy," Harry said and then went back to eating his dinner ignoring Malfoy.

"Hang on Harry I thought you didn't like Granger anyway so why are you apologizing?" Daphne asked curious.

"Cause even if she annoys me she didn't deserve to deal with my crap," Harry added shocking everyone "What?"

"And hear I thought you didn't care about anyone," Tracey said humorously

"What can I say you lot have somehow softened me," Harry replied though this wasn't the actual reason though. The truth is that while he may dislike people in general he always made sure to treat them with indifference and would usually insult others to get them to back off. The fact that he lost control like that annoyed him greatly so he had to apologize to Hermione to balance himself out.

He was interrupted from his thoughts when Professor Quirrel burst into the great hall yelling "TROLL IN THE DUNGEON." He looked ill before saying "thought you aught to know," he then collapsed onto the floor in a faint. The entire hall started to panic and Harry just held his head in his hands and thought 'Of course this day ends in some stupid calamity.'

"SILENCE," Dumbledore bellowed and the hall was silenced "Prefects please escort your houses to your respective common rooms while we deal with the troll. Harry decided to just go with the crowd and wasn't really thinking when a thought struck him. Hermione and Sera had no clue what was going on, he had to warn them. He quickly grabbed Daphne and said "Sera and Granger don't know."

"Oh crap come on," Daphne said pulling Harry through a small corridor quickly which no one noticed "They're up on the third floor girls toilets."

Harry and Daphne as quickly as they could ran up to the third floor corridor and ran into the girls toilets only to be met with a sight of Sera and Hermione facing a troll that was about swing his club down on there heads. Instinct took over Harry as he used his chaos element to turn the handle of the trolls club into liquid wood and it slipped out of it's hand and fell to the ground behind it. Daphne acting quickly noticed that the floor was wet and used her elemental powers froze the floor. This made the troll slip and fall backwards and the back of the trolls head smacked into the head of its club knocking it out. The ice soon turned back to water as Harry approached the two girls who surprisingly didn't seem frightened.

"Err, there's a troll in the castle," Harry said feeling a bit awkward.

"No shit, why are you here?" Sera said angrily. She seemed to still be angry at Harry.

"We came to warn you since you weren't at the feast," Daphne explained "By the way Harry has something to say."

Harry just looked at Daphne who had a face that told him to apologize to Hermione or else.

"Look I'm sorry for what I said Hermione," Harry said "Today is not a good day for me but that doesn't mean that I can be mean to you."

Harry really didn't expect what happened next. Hermione slapped him hard enough to send Harry to the floor and yelled out "YOU'RE DAMM RIGHT I DIDN'T DESERVE THAT YOU EVIL MONSTER."

Hermione cursing Harry was surprising enough but it was the slap that surprised Harry the most. There was power behind it and it literally sent a Shockwave throughout Harry's body and when Harry looked up at her he saw that she was radiating power which both impressed and scared Harry. Sera too seemed to radiate power but in a different manner. Hermione seemed to be shooting uncontrolled burst of power out of her in sharp and radical ways whereas Sera seemed to be emitting a wave of warm energy.

"Are you alright Harry?" Daphne asked slightly amused. She knew Harry deserved it but she would've told him that tomorrow when he wasn't going to be a moody prick.

"Suppose so," Harry mumbled before admitting "I deserved it."

"Damn right you did," Sera said and Harry noticed Daphne nodding in agreement When professors McGonagall, Snape, Quirrel, Sprout and Flitwick. Harry noticed that Snape's leg had a large gash as if it had been mauled at.

"My word what happened here?!" McGonagall stated shocked at the scene of a troll on the ground as 4 first years were stood there.

There was an awkward silence when Harry spoke up.

"Me and Daphne came to warn Sera and Hermione about the troll but it was already here so they used a levitation charm on the trolls club before knocking it out."

McGonagall looked stunned at the boy. She knew he was lying but to do so to the benefit of others didn't seem to add up.

"And why didn't two of my Griffindor's know about the troll?" McGonagall asked concerned

"Well this royal git upset Hermione enough that she was in here for hours crying and I was consoling her," Sera answered still pissed at Harry.

"Watch your language Ms Brandt," McGonagall stated "Is this true."

"Yes," Harry stated simply.

"Very well then 10 points to Griffindor, for sheer dumb luck," McGonagall said before turning her ire to Harry "As for you Mr Potter 10 points off of Slytherin and detention with me tomorrow for hurting another student."

"I understand Professor," Harry said looking down at the ground.

"Now then, I will escort my Griffindor's back to their common room while Professor Snape escorts you two back to the dungeons," McGonagall said before turning to the other teachers "I trust you three can handle removing this troll from the school?"

"Of course Professor," Flitwick answered as the four kids all left with their heads of houses.

OoO The Elemental Order OoO

Snape escorted Harry and Daphne to the common room with scowl on his face and he was limping. Harry was a mix of emotions at the moment. He would be the first, second and third person to admit that he didn't like people and found them annoying yet that was beginning to change since he arrived at Hogwarts. He had found people that he did like and that he could be friends with. His view on the world had been shattered and it was confusing him. Before, he never cared about anyone or anything and it was so simple. Everyone was nothing but a tool for him at best or intolerable at worst. Now though he found a lot of people who he liked and who he found himself caring for. It was messing with his mind and he no longer wanted to hurt people to avoid them but only hurt those that deserved it. The fact that Harry felt guilty for nearly getting Hermione killed confused, scared and impressed himself and left him asking where the hell did this sense of justice and compassion came from. Sadly Harry was having an argument with himself. Should he go back to how he was when life was simple or should he embrace this new version of himself?

"I'm disappointed that you two didn't take credit for that little stunt and reduced Slytherin's lead," Snape stated drolly pulling Harry out of his thoughts.

Harry just rolled his eyes at this and then Snape continued "Nothing to say for yourselves?"

Again Harry didn't reply and just continued to stare at the ground as he walked

"Finally a Potter shuts up this truly is a momentous occasion," Snape jeered

Harry knew Snape was trying to get a rise out of him for some reason and it was working as Harry was feeling angry again but remembered that his anger got him in this situation in the first place

"Maybe that's what we should celebrate today instead of the fall of the dark lord?" Snape pondered and the answer to Harry's dilemma was solved. He could afford to become a bit more nicer and still treat certain people like Snape as the scum that they were only this time they would all deserve it. That was when it him. Good and evil, light and darkness, all the diametric pairs united together makes chaos. That was who he is. He was good and bad, light and dark, he was both and neither at the same time and in many was the impossible balance. Now was the time to embrace his life of chaos. Harry winked at Daphne and she understood that she should follow Harry's lead.

"You would like that wouldn't you?" Harry replied "Instead of watching people celebrate me for ridding the world of your dark lord."

"Watch your tone Potter," Snape stated hoping Harry would fight back.

"Why? Can't handle the truth," Harry replied

"You would do well to shut up Potter," Snape warned

"I'm curious, does Voldemort like all his minions greasy or is just you?" Harry asked smirking

"Detention tomorrow Potter," Snape replied "I'll be sure to rid you of that cockiness."

"Oh that would a first, you teaching me something," Harry replied loving this "Shame no one taught how to wash your hair."

"Make it two detentions Potter," Snape said really regretting starting this now

"Are you this bitter because you can't figure out how to use a shower or because you were put in the friend-zone by my mum?" Harry asked. Snape had been an especially annoying git all day so Harry felt good to give him a taste of his own medicine. Snape turned around and grabbed Harry by the scruff of his collar.

"Why you arrogant little shit," Snape would've continued but he noticed that Harry had his wand aimed somewhere delicate.

"No please continue. See what happens," Harry said his tone going from comical to dangerous.

"You would be expelled Potter so go ahead," Snape said bluffing.

"And who are the people going to believe? A dodgy Potions teacher or their saviour? And don't forget Daphne." Harry replied

"Miss Greengrass would never lie like this," Snape said looking at Daphne only to see her with a wand aimed at him.

"Yeah right after all the crap you've said to Harry today he would be lucky to even get the first shot in," Daphne replied smirking evilly "No one would miss you death eater. Your death would be unnoticed and your legacy would be non existent so don't get any ideas you pathetic scumbag."

Harry was impressed "Damn Daphne that was good."

"Thank you Harry I learned from the best," Daphne replied with a smile as Snape let go and walked off.

"You think he forgot that he meant to be escorting us?" Harry asked loving the ending this day was having.

"Maybe. Anyway I wanted to talk about what happened," Daphne said getting serious as she looked around to find no one there and no portraits spying on them.

Harry recalled what happened and remembered that he really needed to talk about it too.

"Yeah we should," Harry said also getting serious "You're an elemental."

"As are you though what element are you I couldn't tell?" Daphne asked still confused by Harry it didn't make sense.

"Chaos," Harry replied confusing Daphne even more

"What does that mean?" She asked.

"I have control over the power of chaos. I can control chaos energy and I can make things do what they shouldn't be able to do like with the troll I made the club handle liquid wood," Harry explained.

"That's weird and confusing," Daphne replied.

"That's chaos," Harry replied "It doesn't make sense and that's my element."

"Well it explains your wand and why you're so good at magic," Daphne replied shocked "Usually elementals have control over basic elements."

"Like you and water," Harry replied

"Yes I'm a water elemental." Daphne said "How is it that you can control chaos though it's not exactly a basic element?"

"No idea. Wendy had no clue either," Harry replied

"You met Wendy too?" Daphne asked

"Yeah on my awakening," Harry replied "Same for you?"

"Yeah, its weird though that she would be there for two awakenings," Daphne said then remembering something "Hang on there was an incident on your birthday a year ago where someone had enchanted an entire muggle neighbourhood that was you?"

"Suppose so I was at home the entire time so I have no idea about anything else that happened," Harry said.

"Do you think we're the only ones?" Daphne asked

"No. The sorting hat mentioned that there were others like me so there must be more and in our year too," Harry replied.

"Told me the same thing too. Do you have any ideas?" She asked

"I think Granger might be," Harry replied stunning Daphne "When she hit me I felt this quick shock of power throughout my body like I had been electrocuted."

"Not happy about that," Daphne said smirking

"Not particularly no," He replied

"So what do we do?" She asked "Her and Sera saw us use our powers."

"We'll talk to them tomorrow alone," Harry said "Come on it's getting late."

The two headed to the common room

"That was a nice thing you did back there by the way," Daphne said

"Thanks," Harry said uncomfortable at the remark "I've been thinking that I don't have to be a git to everyone, only those that deserve it."

"Well it's an improvement to the 'Everyone sucks' you," She remarked making Harry laugh.

"You're partly to blame for it Daphne," Harry remarked

"Don't you mean thank?" She replied

"No I mean blame. Life was simpler when everyone sucks then you, Blaise and Tracey show up and upend it by not sucking," He replied sarcastically making Daphne full on laugh at this.

"Then I'm sorry for screwing with your simple life," She replied sarcastically

"Don't worry about it," Harry said as the two reached the common room only for Tracey to hug the two as they entered.

"You worried us sick," Tracey remarked letting them go as Blaise, Sylvia, Zoe and Flint all approached them.

"We're fine don't worry," Daphne said trying to placate everyone.

"What happened?" Blaise asked

"Well Harry here felt guilty about what he said to Granger so he went off to warn her and Sera about the troll and Snape caught us out of bounds," Daphne answered.

"So you got in trouble for those two pieces of filth," Malfoy stated and Harry smiled. It felt good to have a target for his special brand of pain.

"Aren't Hermione and Sera doing better than you in class Malfoy?" Harry asked

"So what Potter?" Malfoy sneered back

"Well you seem to be insulting yourself considering that those two pieces of filth seem to be better than you," Harry answered

"I'm a Pureblood you idiot so of course I'm better than them. Grades are meaningless," Malfoy retorted.

"Malfoy, all that you are relies on your dad, without him you're nothing," Harry responded "At least those two rely on their own power to succeed."

"Watch what you say Potter. A half-blood like you has no place in the house of the pure like Slytherin," Malfoy replied

"I thought this was the house of ambition and cunning," Harry replied "You seem to be lacking in them so it's a wonder your sat here."

"Oh and what is your great ambition then Potter, to have us worship Mudbloods?" Malfoy taunted

"No you moron it's simpler than that," Harry replied and noticed that all of Slytherin was looking at him "My ambition is to make Voldemort," Everyone flinched making Harry smirk "To make that bigoted dark lord into nothing more than a footnote in my legacy."

That stunned everyone and Blaise asked the obvious question "Why?"

"Revenge," Harry stated simply "I can't kill him anymore so making people forget him is the next best thing."

"Damn Harry that's pretty hardcore," Sylvia said.

"So you are nothing more than an undeserving Slytherin," Malfoy said

"You really are a special little idiot aren't you Malfoy," Harry replied "I declare that my ambition is to make people treat the supposed greatest dark lord of all time as a mere footnote and you call me undeserving to be a member of the house of ambition. You really do have no idea what being a true Slytherin is."

"A true Slytherin would defend this world from the Mudbloods and Blood traitors in it," Malfoy yelled back.

"You know nothing you pompous git," Harry replied "You see I read about our houses history and found that the whole blood supremacy ideal wasn't a part of it until the 1940s onwards as before then Slytherin house was friendly with the other three houses, now we are considered dark simply for being in this house. Your precious dark lord has ruined the legacy of a thousand year old house with his bigotry and you call me a traitor. Pathetic as always Malfoy."

"Where did you find this Harry?" Zoe asked

"Its in the Library Zoe wasn't that hard to find so everyone can check my facts if you want," Harry said as he left for bed "I'm going to bed now it's been a trying day and I have practise tomorrow."

Harry went to bed tired from the crazy day he had suffered through. Through dealing with the emotional turmoil of the day, dealing with a bloody troll and the fact that his best friend was an elemental as well. It had started as a rough day but ended well despite the detentions he got himself. The fact that Daphne of all people turned out to be an elemental was great for Harry and he felt like she truly was a kindred spirit to him. He drifted off thinking that the world seemed a bit better then he thought it was.

OoO The Elemental Order OoO

Sera and Hermione returned to their dorm in silence and they were bombarded with questions though thankfully McGonagall was there to answer for them so they quickly snuck off to their room while everyone was listening to McGonagall.

"You know that was a wicked slap Hermione," Sera said trying to lighten the mood

"Thanks a guess," Hermione muttered staring at the ground. Sera just hugged her friend.

"I'm sorry Sera," Hermione said confusing her "I panicked and I couldn't do anything."

"Hey don't be like that I panicked too," Sera said.

"It's not the same Sera I should be able to stand up for myself," Hermione declared

"Hey you're just a first year, you shouldn't be expected to hold your own against a bloody troll," Sera stated wondering what her friend was thinking.

Hermione just looks at Sera and asks "Can you keep a secret?"

"Of course Hermione, you're my friend I'll always be there for you," Sera declared.

Hermione just opened her palm and lightning shot between her fingertips "I'm an elemental. That's why I should be able to stand up for you cause I have the power to do so but I couldn't."

Sera just sighed as Hermione looked at her as she also presented her hand as fire erupted from it "You're not the only one Hermione we're in this together."

"You Too?!" Hermione stated shocked

"And I think Harry and Daphne are too," Sera said "That's how they beat the troll."

"You think so?" Hermione said trying to recall it "Now that you mention it it did get really cold for a brief second but surely both can't be elementals as well."

"I think at least one of them is," Sera said "Best way to find out is to talk to them."

"Are you sure I mean I was warned not to tell anyone about it?" Hermione asked

"Yeah me to but I'm sure that they know about Daphne at least so we have to make sure that they won't tell anyone else," Sera stated "Though I doubt that they will."

Hermione thought about it and agreed and the two went to bed worn out from the day. Both girls swore to themselves to do better and gain some bravery after all what good is a cowardly Griffindor.

Authors Notes

Wow this was surprisingly hard to write even though I was looking forward to writing it. Between renovating my house and writers block being a dick this was tough and I'm glad it's done.

I wanted to establish that Neville is a hard working guy so having him find the ROR in first year and use it for training seemed like a good way to establish that and I will be be using the ROR later on in the 2nd year.

After seeing Avengers Infinity War I have some great ideas for how to use Harry's powers much, much later on. I know that his powers seem confusing and I will explain them more soon but I want to focus on the characters first.

Essentially Chaos could also be called fusion element as it mixes two opposite forms of energy together to form chaos but it also allows Harry to manipulate the natural state of objects which is why it is so powerful as if taken to the nth degree Harry could literally prevent death through pure willpower.

I have also come up with an idea for each elementals 'Ultimate attack' if you will and are named as such.

Harry – Wonderland

Hermione – Perfect Storm

Sera – Archfiend Horde

Neville – Teutonic Rampage

Daphne – Frozen Inferno

Wendy – Bladed Tornados

Each of them are ridiculously powerful and take a lot out of the user to the point were they should only be used as a last resort. I will cover them all in more detail later on in the story.

I know some people enjoy the idea that Harry is a righteous dick to everyone but I have to make him a little nicer as this isn't a bash fic except for Snape but fuck him he deserved worse than what happened to him in the books. So yeah Harry will be a bit nicer to people in general but those that have pissed him off will feel the full brunt of his verbal beat downs which means that he will be more focused on them. Don't panic people he will be a dick but only towards the right people. I'm thinking of it like a evil power being used for good.

The elementals have sort of met apart from Neville (By Design) and will have there official meeting next chapter. I was gonna leave it until the end of the year but I couldn't figure out how to do without making Sera and Hermione look really weak by having them cower in a stall listening and I wanted to establish that they also have some growing to do. Trust me Sera and Hermione will get more bad ass as they get more confident
