Harry Potter the God Slaying Sword
ESKK: Ok here Year 2 begins and yeah shit is going to happen regardless so let's start this story ok.
(Start Joseph's home)
Joseph was home at his estate again as he and Elisa were going to be meeting with Harry and his relatives for dinner to meet some new business friends. They agreed to meet at Harry's house so Joseph was dressed up in one of hi snice suits as Joseph was reading his mother's Diary. Soon he heard his owl had caught something as he looked and saw he was eating a rat he caught as Joseph chuckled. "Well that handles the rat problem." Joseph joked as Elisa was reading some of H.P. Lovecraft's books as she was trying to pass the time.
"Diary entry Beginning of War, as I sat there having my picture taken with the original Order of the Phoenix my mind wandered curios as I questioned if we would win this war or have a chance seeing as our numbers were few. Among the first rules we were told we apparently don't kill we stun and turn the Death Eaters over to the DMLE. I won't lie if this is a war why should we stun and not kill? I'll trust Dumbledore for now but something about stunning them doesn't sit right with me. I hope we can end this war fast enough though but I was concerned. I brought this up with Lily and James of course but they told me I should just trust what Dumbledore says he was leading us but I had responded just because he was didn't mean he was always right. But I did trust Lily so I stepped aside and waited to see where it went for now- Diary Entry End."
"Diary Entry Blood War entry 2: It's been a while since I last wrote into this and ironically this is kind of becoming a chronicle of what I had gone through during the Blood War. For starters let me start by saying this… I'm losing all my faith in Albus Dumbledore. The alleged strongest wizard in the world has been having us stun our foes and turning them in when they just end up back outside doing the same thing raping, killing and so many others. I saw a Death Eater raping a blood traitor girl no older than 9 I lost it and killed him I crucio him for what seemed like hours until he was all but begging me to kill him. I did so but I made it slow and painful. After I realized what I did I panicked and told Dumbledore what happened and seeing his distraught it made me he told me I simply lost control of my feelings and for good reason to but he told me not to allow this to happen again or make a habit of it."
"I listened at first but the more this war waged the more I realized Dumbledore was wrong just like Voldemort they were both wrong and my mind was trying to rationalize that they were the problems with our small Wizarding World. It then lead me to meeting Voldemort himself but when he tried to kill me with his snake I was able to turn the snake against him and free myself and after a fight he let me go when he had a chance to finish me as I ran. That was the first time I defied him."
"As I looked at my hands that same night ready for bed I saw them shaking for I had use the Killing Curse to kill my foes and this tingling feeling I felt I realized I had killed someone to save the lives of others when the same person I used the curse on was about to kill a group of Muggle-born children. Slowly I thought maybe if I kept this a secret from Dumbledore maybe… maybe I can end this war myself. But I need some way to keep myself from being found out, but I'm a Slytherin I'm cunning and smart enough to know how to outwit others, how else was I able to help Padfoot, Prongs, Wormtail, and Moony on their pranks."
"But I soon learned something horrible, the second time I face Voldemort he claimed to have taken an interest in me after hearing what I have been doing lately. Commenting of how I used Fiendfyre to kill my enemies and save as many Muggle and Muggleborn as I could. Then he called me dark saying that I had the taste and now I craved it. He offered me a place by his side trying to turn me to his cause but I defied him a 2nd time that day. Yelling and accusing him that he was also what was wrong with the world at large. His zealot of blood purity and his crusade of it was what was killing the Wizarding world and the world was trying to save our kind by giving magic to the mundane world. I ended up taking a stand there and used Imperio to force his followers to attack each other and I was able to Crucio Bellatrix give the bitch a taste of her own medicine. I escaped with my life and knowing Voldemort now wanted me an Heiress of Slytherin who with that snake could produce a child with closer ties to Salazar Slytherin then either of us. I kept this event hidden but the taste was there and on that night I pulled out an ancient tome of the Eldritch Gods maybe… something in there could help me."
"Eventually I faced Voldemort with the newly wedded James and Lily Potter and Frank Longbottom and his lovely wife. As we fought this was the third time we have defied him and then… he placed a seed of doubt among my friends and with a Killing Curse to save James and Lily the seed sprouted and I was forced to meet with Dumbledore when I was discovered. I won't lie I let out everything I had against Albus the wrongs he caused the fact that thanks to him we lost a good number of our allies while I was the only one actually making a dent against Voldemort. At the end of that night… I left the Order cutting my ties with them all spitefully so. Now I stand alone and if I must enter the darkness to beat the darkness then I'll be the Dark Lady who stands for justice the one called Tyrant- End Diary Entry."
"Diary Entry 3 Lily and Arkham, I had no idea after I left Lily started searching for me James even encouraged her to do so no doubt thinking she can 'save me,' the naïve fool. I ended up meeting with her during a ritual I had discovered something a place called Arkham where infinite knowledge rested. I had located a Grimoire and with it a Deus Machina one of the last few in the world. This Machina was one of 8 or 9 that still remained in the world and I myself could not believe I was able to revive one of them with my Grimoire Unassprechlichen Kulten or Una Kulten for short and together I had gained the weapon known as the Nameless One. I in turn appeared in the war announcing myself for all to hear as the Dark Queen Tyrant and I gave Voldemort my warning stand against me as he has already and he will suffer as he faces justice, I announced that those with power to fear me and those who are oppressed by power to rally behind me for I will cast my judgement upon the world."
"For a time I did so though my reign was short I won't deny I had made a great impact. And when I attempted to enter Arkham Lily appeared and in turn we were both dragged into Arkham that day. We had awoken in that city and I had learned I held great power here but as I walked I saw something as did Lily we knew what it was and quickly shielded our eyes and ears knowing if it saw us and we looked upon it our human perception could not handle it. We escaped and it was there we had found two of the 9 living Deus Machina in a library with hundreds of not thousands of sleeping Grimoires. We needed to escape but curiosity got the better of us and I had took a book closes to the Deus Machina Liber Legis while Lily went close to the one known as Demonbane. I told Lily we needed to leave but I soon learned our way out was impeded by the same Outer God who we saw before. In this time I had been given no choice and contacted another Outer God known as Yog-Sothoth who had been expecting me for some time now. He offered us an escape but I had to pay a price for his aid, my womb my eggs fertilized with his seeds to act as his anchor to bring his race into the human world once more."
"I had denied him at first but I did not wish for Lily to be trapped and before I agreed I told Lily that no matter what happens she was always my best friend and to tell Severus when she sees him that I had always loved him and wished him happiness where ever fate took him. At that day we agreed entering Arkham was the biggest mistake we could ever make for that day my child was conceived by an Elder God as his Anti-Christ. My biggest mistake but my only prayer now is for the child I carry to grow to deny his father. –End Entry"
"Final Entry: Last moments, Joseph as I hold you in my arms I know that you and Lily's son Harry are in great danger. I was smart and married a muggle husband who though is equipped with a large fortune I hold no love or enjoyment with him. A man as he reminded me to much of Lily's sister's husband Vernon. But lucky a quick Imperio from you and me my baby boy will change that no problem. Joseph… please I know you can't deny fate but always remember that mummy loves you more than her own life. Out of everything that had happened you were the one thing I never regretted when you were born you were the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Joseph… please live a happy life till the end and know that mummy will see you soon and we'll be together as we watch the march of time by each heartbeat. –End Entry"
When Joseph finished reading the parts he paid the closet attention too he had read in in a false hope that his mother may have found a way to deny his fate. But alas once more Joseph was hit with the despair that his curse was irreversible with the aid of anything short of Shining Trapazahedron. "Master." Elisa said as she walked up to Joseph as Joseph looked.
"Be at ease Etheldredra I was just catching up on my reading." Joseph lied as he was in fact re-reading his mother's diary for what seemed like the 100th time this summer before 2nd year.
"Master you know that in this form its best to refer to me as Elisa." Etheldredra or Elisa said as she had grown fond of that name her master had given to her for their shared infiltration into Hogwarts School.
"I know… I tend to forget sometimes." Joseph said as he sat as his desk.
"Well I have the reports of your follower's recent raids its best we look over them before we send out the Black Angel to Diagon Alley." Elisa said as Joseph nodded.
"Leave it on my study desk I will look at them in time." Joseph said as he looked upon a list of his contacts. As of now he has the Malfoy family by the noose and in turn has a foothold within the ministry once he spreads his influence onto the other major Death Eater Followers within the Ministry. As it stands Joseph as Master Therion possesses contacts and agents within every wizarding governments and muggle government's worldwide. This would in turn allow him freedom of movement and many safe houses as well as the access to resources to initiate his end game known only as his Project C.
Only those within Anti-Cross are aware of this and ever since he lost the Philosopher Stone to Harry giving Demonbane a healing left arm the war has become more interesting. But for now he was Joseph and for now he needed to play his part no matter how much it pained him inside to lie to his friends so easily.
"I wonder how the others are doing." Joseph mused as he looked to the picture he saved from year 1 when the group first formed together.
(Meanwhile London Baptist Church)
Cops were dealing with a major attack by the extremist group the Black Lodge as it stands the Lodge had an entire building hostage. Now normally they would be all in with S.W.A.T teams busting in but there were also hostages as well and one of the police claimed they saw the Black Lodge doing things with a stick of sorts. They informed the higher ups and were later told the 'professionals,' would take it from here.
Hence why Gabriel stood before them in his suit as he held a laptop and activated it with a camera to show a silhouette of a female figure. "Pardon me ma'am but did you just say Wizards and Witches are causing this?" The cop asked as he looked to the video feed.
"Yes I am Constable among other things such as a few dark creatures." The woman said with her voice synthesized to hide her true identity. "My group was recently become funded by the Queen of England herself when our Demonbane weapon was mobilized nearly a year ago when it used one of its most powerful weapons." The woman said as the camera looked straight at them. "We have official orders for you all to stand down and leave the rest to us." The woman on the other side said as the leader wasn't convinced.
"But blimey witches and wizards, what's next a bloody leprechaun that shoots lucky charms when stabbed or shot?" The leader asked as Gabriel then slammed the orders upon the Head cop who looked it over.
"Well don't take our word for it, go ahead and risk your jobs and lives by not relying on us." The woman said as the constables read it over.
"Sir!" Came the word of a communication man. "We lost contact with our teams inside the church." He said as the man glared at this turn of events.
"Well we're waiting." The woman said as she looked to the man through the video camera plugged into the laptop.
"Have our teams pull back." The leader said as he looked to the woman on the screen. "These Marauders will handle things here." He said as the woman made a smirking sound on her side.
"Don't worry where all else fails we don't." She said as she smirked.
(With Daphne Marauder Organization HQ)
"I figured you would all see reason so I had already deployed my two best agents to deal with this problem personally." Daphne said as she sat on her desk with a computer as she observed the operation from her safe end.
"Blimey we're going to see Harry in action especially after the summer trip." Hermione said as she hoped Harry was doing better after that whole fiasco.
"Don't worry Hermione we just have to trust in him." Daphne said as she observed the operation while Ron was back at the burrow. "Now make sure he's aware." Daphne said as even though he was approved by Daphne now he didn't need to be incognito for this fight.
"Got it." Hermione said as she went to the radio to call it in. "Harry Al you two are good to go." Hermione said as she got a reply from Al.
"Thank god I was thinking we would be kept waiting to long." Al was heard as she sounded like she was about to go off with or without orders.
(Battle)
The Black Lodge Soldiers held guns and wands at the ready as it seems they had received new forces from the Dark Creatures of the Wizarding World as it was clear these were not your average Black Lodge Troops. The hostages were all rounded up as they tried to figure out what was going on. By the looks of it they didn't like there little church here but no one has ever gone far as to attack like terrorists.
"Prepare the mark once these blood pigs give us the ransom we'll end them all." Came a Black Lodge Officer as he looked to a subordinate.
"SCIMITAR OF BARZAI!" Harry was heard invoking as they looked and saw the Scimitar flying in like a boomerang as they had to dodge the attack but the hostages were then in shock as it flew at them. When they shielded their eyes they only heard rope being cut as they looked and saw the rope was undone.
Harry then flew in in his Magius form as with a burst of magic undid any explosive charms placed on them and using the EMP effect of magic to disarm any and all bombs in range. As Harry saw the Black Lodge here he began to fight them off with punches and kicks as well as using the Scimitar to fight them off. Harry then called off the Scimitar as he wasn't trying to kill them so magic boosted punches and kicks will have to do. Harry then saw bullets flying at him to which he responded by catching or blocking them as luckily being a Magius of almost 3 years now granted Harry advantages to practice and learn his limits.
Harry was soon surrounded as he had to dodge and avoid killing curses left and right as he then glared at his foes. "MYSTIC DEFENSE!" Harry invoked out as he gave the hostages cover. "Stay close!" Harry called out as he charged through the grunts and got everyone to the door. "Go! Go! Go!" Harry called as the hostages ran out the door. "Now the finisher." Harry said as he saw the goons of the Black Lodge were now at his mercy.
Harry then roared out and with a burst of magic punched the ground hard causing all the Black Lodge members to be sent flying and in turn knocked out. Harry then grabbed a member of the Black Lodge who was still awake and glared at him with rage in his eyes. "Ok start talking! Why did you attack this place?!" Harry demanded as he glared at the man in question.
"For the glory of Master Therion." The man said as Harry glared. "He did not desire this place personally he simply allows us to strike back at your wizard and mundane worlds for all the wrongs it has done to us." He said as Harry was confused a bit. "I'll gladly die for Master Therion you wizarding swine." He growled before Harry heard what sounded like a tooth cracking and saw the man began to convulse. "Like the mythical Hydra's cut off one head… two more shall take its place." The man said as he began to foam at the mouth before he ended up dead as Harry was shocked by this.
"They're willing to kill themselves to ensure the Black Lodge power." Al said as these were some real fantastical cultists here.
"Yeah but they've been steadily getting bolder as of late." Harry said as he took notice to this odd change in behavior.
"How long do you think till this war gets full blown?" Al asked as this was concerning.
"No clue we'll just have to wait and see." Harry said as that was there best option for the time being.
(Scene Break HQ)
After Harry and Al were debriefed he was going through another check-up as the secrets of the Grimoire were still unknown. Plus since Demonbane was recently given two new spells during the Blood Incident they had to be sure Harry, Al, and Demonbane weren't suffering from any possible adverse effects from his transformation into his Magius form. As Harry sat there he began to think a bit on Rose as he and Al were being scanned as normal before they could be sent home for the day. After the incident the Queen of England had become aware of what the Marauders Organization was doing as well as being aware of the Wizarding World. Seeing as the Ministry of Magic was under British rule the Queen and certain Government officials and groups were required to be aware of the happenings in said world.
Luckily Queen Elizabeth had liaisons to the Ministry who reported straight to her in case they do something out of line and when she had learned of the Dark Lord Voldemort's attacks and how the Ministry was denying Master Therion's existence she sought out the Marauders. Needless to say when she met them with her Knights of the Round she gave them her full support seeing as they were a rag tag band of people fighting the good fight for the world. She offered them funding and such to keep them afloat and to further their R&D department as well as acquire recruits on a regular basis.
Though as far as anyone else was concerned they did not exist the Marauders needed to keep secrecy as their chief tactic to prevent major incidents with the Ministry. With this they can be given funding and provided with recruits while also retaining their covert operations within London.
"Ok Mr. Potter, Ms. Azif you're both free to go." The healer said as the two nodded and took their leave of the medical bay.
"Ok." Harry said as he and Al then began to take their leave of the area. They began to leave the base even passing by the R&D department where Doc was testing new magic powered vehicles which then blew up followed up with a flurry of curses from him that would make a sailor blush.
(Scene Break Dursley Household)
Harry was going through the scrap book he got from Hagrid once more as he was on the page with his parents before changing it. On it was the image of Harry, Al, Ron, Hermione, Joseph, and Elisa all together smiling at the camera at Hogwarts. Nearby Al was taking a nap on her slime familiar who Harry had learned was actually a very comfortable bed… and a very nasty little thing when it wants to be a little prank master. Hedwig flew in as Harry saw the Snowy Owl as no doubt she had been visiting Joseph's owl Elvira as the two were like to talons to an Owl.
As Harry and Al sat there the Owl was only hunting as even though they weren't allowed to use magic outside of school Harry and Al utilized unknown Magic of a Magius thus making it very difficult if not impossible to track save for another Magius. They may catch wind but never find the source of the unregistered use of magic. Harry just loved loopholes sometimes plus Joseph with his father was coming over soon with some new neighbors no doubt for his aunt to appear normal to the new neighbors.
"Bored." Al said as she laid on her slimy blob.
"Well there's no point in it we just need to wait for our letters to arrive and be done with it." Harry said as Al then got up.
"Yeah I'm finding it strange that Ron and Hermione's letters never arrived by owl but Hermione's letters from the postal mail arrive no problem." Al said as Ron even commented that he been sending letters but Harry and Al never responded.
"Yeah I'm getting the feeling our letters are getting intercepted somehow." Harry said as Al agreed on Harry's theory. Now the question was who was doing it and how they were stealing their letters from Hogwarts.
"Harry Potter! Al Azif!" Came the voice of Petunia as Harry rolled his eyes as Al sighed in annoyance.
"Come on lets go see what the Horse lady wants." Al said as she and Harry took there leave of their shared bedroom to go downstairs.
(Later Downstairs)
"Ok what's the problem now?" Al said as she knew she and Harry weren't exactly welcomed here but since Harry had gotten Petunia a high position in the D2 Corporation or the Dark Development Corporation and was friends with the CEO's son she had to tolerate them both.
"Al first, tell me how does this cake look?" Petunia asked as she was in a nice dress gesturing to the cake in question.
"Too plain and bland add a strawberry pointed up and a few fruit slices around it and it will be perfect." Al said as Petunia always asked Al's opinion on designs.
"Ok what am I missing here?" Harry asked as he looked to Dudley in a nice outfit right now.
"The Masons are also coming over with the Theo's so basically we have to look as normal as possible." Al said as for her normal was overrated. "Which means Dudley will probably be waiting to open the door in that suit looking like a dressed up baby hippo." Al began as Dudley glared at the Grimoire.
"Hey!" He called not liking the insult Al just made.
"Petunia the perfectionist will probably be in the living room to welcome them." Al continued as Petunia was silent at Al's insult as well. "And once all the adults are in the house the kids will be off to do whatever they want which means, me Joseph, Harry, and Elisa will go probably play Dungeons and Dragons." Al said as basically put the freaks stay out of the way while the normal people enjoy dinner.
Soon the door bell rung as everyone got into position as Al then smirked to Harry. "Josephs going to do something isn't he?" Harry asked as Al looked to him.
"Well if he's provoked then probably." Al said as Joseph never gets heavily involved in situations unless he is provoked.
Soon Joseph and Elisa walked in as Joseph saw Harry. "Harry!" Joseph called as he and Joseph did there fist bump to greet each other.
"Hey Joseph." Harry greeted as Elisa followed after Joseph.
"Good evening Harry, and Mrs. Dursley." Elisa greeted as she appeared.
"Hey Petunia house looks wonderful if not a bit bland." Joseph's father Michael said as he saw the house upon entering. "Oooh cake." He said as he just loved cake.
"Dad." Joseph scolded knowing the man had to wait for the Masons to arrive before having cake.
"Joseph, why don't you go play with your friends." Michael said as Joseph nodded in response to his father.
"Ok dad." Joseph said as he, Al, Harry, and Elisa went upstairs.
"Come on I already got the game out and have a table set up." Harry said as the four went upstairs to Harry and Al's shared bedroom.
(Later up at the Bedroom)
The four arrived to Harry's room and to their shock they found a small creature in rags jumping up and down on Harry's bed and by the looks of it the creature was enjoying itself. He then realized Harry and friend were there as he looked at him with big round eyes and fixed himself. "Harry Potter and friends such an honor it is." The Elf like creature said as he did a small bow to the four.
Harry and co entered the room and closed the door behind them as Harry was the first to speak. "Who are you?" Harry asked as it wasn't every day you find an elf in your own bedroom.
"Dobby sir, Dobby the house elf sir." The now identified Dobby said as he looked to Harry.
"Not to be rude but why are you here in Harry's bedroom?" Joseph asked as he looked to Dobby knowing who he was servant to in the Wizarding community.
"Oh yes sir and ladies Dobby understands it's just that Dobby has come to tell you…" Dobby began as he was finding it hard to put into words now. "It is difficult sir Dobby wonders where to begin." Dobby said as Elisa looked to him as did Al who the later was scanning and calculating with her own magic as a Grimoire.
"Why don't you sit down?" Harry offered as he figured Dobby needed a minute to get his thoughts in some proper order.
"S-sit down?" Dobby began to stutter as Al didn't like this.
"Oh boy someone get a tear bucket." Al quipped silently knowing what was to come now.
"Dobby stop shush I didn't mean to offend you." Harry said as Joseph and Elisa watched on from there spots.
"Offend me sir? Dobby has heard of your greatness sir but never has he ever been asked to sit down by a wizard." Dobby said as he fixed his rags a bit as he seemed very meek. "Like an equal." Dobby said as Al, Elisa, and Joseph noticed a similarity.
"That… sounds something akin to a slave and master." Joseph said as Harry looked to Joseph on this.
"You can't be serious, Joseph." Harry said to Joseph who was silent at this. "You just haven't met many decent Wizards then right Dobby?" Harry asked as Dobby looked to Harry.
"No… Dobby hasn't." Dobby said before he realized what he just said. "Oh no Dobby should not have said that." Dobby said as Al saw what Dobby was about to do.
"I got it!" Al called using the slime creature to move and cushion all of Dobby's attempts at self-punishing himself for saying the wrong thing to Harry.
"Told you." Joseph said as Harry could understand Dobby's blight a bit. After all when his Uncle was around he and his aunt treated him like a slave from cooking and cleaning while they spoil Dudley.
"Dobby stop now!" Al ordered as the slime creature restrained Dobby a bit.
"I'm sorry sirs and misses Dobby had to punish himself Dobby almost spoke ill of his family." Dobby said as Harry looked to the small House Elf.
"Your family?" Harry asked as he looked to Dobby.
"This Wizard family he probably serves, am I right?" Al asked as she looked to Dobby.
"Yes miss, Dobby is bound to serve one family forever. If they ever learned Dobby was here." Dobby began as he sat on the chair offered to him once freed from the slime creature as the thought of his family learning this was a horrible one. "But Dobby had to come, Dobby has to protect Harry Potter and Al Azif to warn them." Dobby said as he looked to Harry and Al who were surprised. "Harry Potter and Al Azif must not go back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry this year. There is a plot a plot to make most terrible things happen." Dobby warned as Al looked to Dobby before she remembered what Draco had said last year about her connection to Abdul Alhazared by 'blood link.'
"What terrible things who's plotting them?" Harry asked as he looked to Dobby who realized he messed up big time.
"He can't tell us." Jonathan said stopping Dobby from hurting himself with Al's help. "He's already taking a great risk by telling us all of this right now." Jonathan said as he looked to Dobby. "If I had to guess it's probably the family Dobby serves." Jonathan said as Dobby heard this and simply nodded since he didn't say it but confirmed it.
"Heh." Al began with a chuckle as she smiled at Dobby patting him on the head. "Don't worry Dobby me and Harry can handle it." Al said with a smile on her face. "After all we have some friends in high and low places who can give us a hand." Al said smiling to Dobby who was shocked to hear this.
"Al lets show him ok." Harry said as Al nodded as Joseph and Elisa moved Dobby and then with a small burst Harry and Al were merged into their Magius form.
"My word." Dobby said as Harry and Al smiled at the small House Elf here.
"If a plot is going on at Hogwarts we NEED to go back because someone has to stop it." Harry said as he and Al reverted. "And my friends are there also so they need me to help protect them." Harry said as Dobby looked to Harry seeing the hole he could exploit.
"Friends that don't even write to Harry and Al Azif." Dobby said but then Joseph grabbed Dobby by the scruff of his rags.
"Nice try Dobby but your argument hit a clincher." Joseph said as Dobby saw this.
"Hermione and I live quiet close together and she's confirmed she has written letters to me with Ron and Joseph and Elisa visit almost daily so how would you know this?" Harry asked as Al then searched Dobby's person and found it.
"Well we found whose been intercepting our letters now." Al said pulling out the letters that Dobby had hidden on his person.
"Harry Potter and Al Azif mustn't be angry at Dobby. Dobby had hoped that if Harry Potter and Al Azif's friends had forgotten him that Harry Potter and Al Azif might not want to go back to school sir." Dobby said as Al held the letters.
Harry was angry of course at what Dobby had done… but the pain after losing Rose during the summer when he had just met her was still there. His friends helping him with his grief even if Joseph and Elisa weren't aware of it.
"Dobby, I'm not angry." Harry said being as calm as possible. "But we can take care of ourselves and I'm actually grateful for your concern." Harry said as Dobby was surprised by what Harry said. "Just head back home ok Dobby we'll go to Hogwarts so trust us that we can make it through this." Harry said as he looked to Dobby with a smile on his face.
"O-ok Mr. Harry Potter." Dobby said before he snapped his fingers and vanished as Joseph then spoke up.
"So I guess D&D is out for tonight." Joseph said as Elisa looked to Joseph on this.
"It would appear so." Elisa said as Harry and Al could agree on this.
"Well if we want to get to Hogwarts we need a plan B." Joseph began as he smirked at this. "And I have just the Plan B to use." Joseph said as Harry's letter from his friends may be getting intercepted but what about the other way around or Joseph's letters to their friends.
"You have plan Joseph?" Harry asked as Joseph smirked at Harry showing his true Slytherin Cunning.
"You know it." Joseph said as Harry smiled at this information from Joseph.
(Scene Beak Three Nights later)
Joseph's plan was simple he and Harry would meet with Hermione and inform her of what they had learned. Needless to say Hermione was furious as they let her in on their scheme. Harry would send a letter to Ron which may get intercepted but that was the plan Harry's letter was the decoy as Joseph, Elisa, and Hermione would send one to Ron as well. But Harry and Hermione with Al would go to HQ and tell them to make sure Ron was aware that Harry and Al were stuck at the house.
The plan was simple a smoke screen under a decoy to hide the real message. So while the Wizarding community and whoever sent Dobby to intercept there letters was scrambling to get the groups letters to each other Ron would already be aware and be making plans to come get them.
As they waited for Ron to arrive Harry and Al were in there room with all their gear packed into their trunk they had acquired from the Cupboard earlier that very same day. Al had her wand and gear all accounted for while Harry had both his school uniforms and such and had it in there room. Now all they had to do was wait.
As they waited for Harry began to doze off as Al rolled her eyes to him as she waited. They were lucky they could scare Petunia to feed them without using magic as Dudley was scared of what Joseph would do to him. But as he waited Harry decided to take a quick nap while Al takes over watch as he placed his glasses on the side and fell asleep.
Al saw this as she rolled her eyes figured tonight was not the night either decided to get some sleep herself before she heard the sound of a car engine and looked up curiously which woke up Harry. Harry then had to stifle a scream when she saw a blue car with three red-haired boys in it fly up to their window. She smiled at them when she recognized the youngest.
It seemed that Ron Weasley had come to their rescue. "About time." Al said as he saw Ron here.
"Sorry for being late you two." Ron said as George then spoke.
"Yeah sneaking the car away from our parents was murder." George said as Fred agreed with his twin.
"Wait what about Joseph and Elisa?" Harry asked as he didn't see them there.
"Oh them, we got them yesterday Joseph's dad was going away on business." George began before Fred picked up where George left off.
And Joseph asked if he could stay with us for the rest of the summer." Fred said as Harry smiled about his friend.
"We got him to the house in the afternoon so he ended up sleeping in the guest room with Elisa sharing with Ginny." George finished as that was good to here.
"Yeah first Slytherin's ever to come to the burrow." Ron said as Harry knew Joseph always thinks ahead with his plans and schemes to enact. Plus Ron was just happy Joseph's presence scared off the Gnomes from the house.
"Come let's go!" Al called as she grabbed her trunk and began to load it. "Andre, Andre!" Al called as she and Harry loaded their trunks into the flying car. Once the car moved to the door Harry and Al both jumped in as Al went first followed by Harry as they had to hurry. After all if Petunia found this she's probably have a heart attack if not a stroke.
"Left the letters?" Harry asked as Al smiled.
"Yes I did." Al said as she smiled to Harry. Soon the group were off of there as Al ended up squeezed between Harry and Ron as they headed to the Burrow. "I love it when a plan comes together." Al boasted enjoying their shared victory.
"Hey Ron can you let Hedwig out?" Harry asked Ron who was next to Al. "She can fly behind us. She hasn't had a chance to stretch her wings for ages." Harry said as he knew how Hedwig loved to fly.
George handed the hairpin to Ron and, a moment later, Hedwig soared joyfully out of the window to glide alongside them like a ghost. "Nice trick." Al commented as Ron smiled a bit there.
"Thanks." Ron said as praise from Al was very rare.
(Scene Break the next morning)
As they flew to the Burrow Harry and Al learned a lot about the Weasley's and about the patriarch of the family. Apparently he works in the Misuse of Muggle Artifact Office which basically if a Wizard or Witch dies and his stuff ends up in some antique shop and gets nabbed by a muggle he gets called to cover up and fix everything. Though the problem was the Minister didn't think it was worth two cents resulting in the low income of the family. Of course things were looking better when Ron joined the Marauders Organization which helped with the income by a huge margin.
Al of course finalized her thought of the Minister being a complete and utter idiot if an important office to the Statue of Secrecy upkeep was a 'waste of time,' even more so that he let Lucius Malfoy walk free. It was clear he was a pureblood supporter and a Death Eater but ended up bribing and lying his way out of the Wizard Prison known only as Azkaban.
"So I figured this car is illegal how did you dad get it?" Harry asked during the long ride.
Fred laughed. "Yeah, Dad's crazy about everything to do with Muggles; our shed's full of Muggle stuff. He takes it apart, puts spells on it, and puts it back together again. If he raided our house he'd have to put himself under arrest. It drives Mum mad." Fred said as it was clear the apple didn't fall far from the tree.
"There's the main road." George said, pointing down at one of the roads below them. "It should only be about ten minutes now, which is just as well because it's getting light." George said as it seemed they were in a hurry.
Al peered out of the car at the landscape, she was impressed by the sight of the fields and trees and how they were starting to shine as the sun started to peek up over the horizon. It actually reminded her of the old days back before the fall of the Golden Age when things were different, quiet and peaceful.
"We're a little way outside the village." George said pointing out the mentioned village. "Ottery St. Catchpole." George said as he gestured to, said town.
Lower and lower went the flying car. The edge of a brilliant red sun was now gleaming through the trees. "Touchdown!" said Fred as, with a slight bump, they hit the ground. They had landed next to a tumbledown garage in a small yard, and both Harry and Al looked out for the first time at Ron's house.
Al stared out with nostalgia at the house that was obviously being held up by a lot of magic because it was several stories high and very crooked, looking like they had just stuck rooms onto the house as they needed them, rather than just building one solid house. She watched as several Chickens pecked their way around the yard for a few moments.
"It's wonderful." Harry said happily, causing Ron's ears to turn pink.
"Yeah… makes me feel a bit nostalgic seeing it." Al said as Ron looked as he remembered a Grimoire lives forever bound to one master after the other. No doubt Al was remembering when she was the equivalent to a child so long ago.
"Now, we'll go upstairs really quietly," Fred said detailing their plan to get away with what they just did last night. "and wait for Mum to call us for breakfast then, Ron, you come bounding downstairs going, `Mum, Ginny, look who turned up in the night!' and they'll both be all pleased to see Harry and Rose and no one need ever know we flew the car." Fred said as Al rolled her eyes as she looked to the Weasley children.
Al looked at them as though they lost her head, she did not think that the plan was fool proof. And if it did work then she would lose a considerable amount of respect for their mother.
"Right, come on Harry, I sleep at the top. Al, you can stay with us until Ginny and Elisa gets….. Gets up…." Ron trailed off as he turned a very nasty greenish color, his eyes fixed on something behind them.
The twins and Potter siblings spun around to see Mrs. Weasley stalking across the yard, scattering chickens and looking extremely ferocious for such a kind-faced woman.
"Ah." Fred said as it was evident they were in trouble.
"Oh, dear." George said hoping he has a chance to write up his will first.
Mrs. Weasley stopped in front of them and placed her hands on her hips, her nostrils flaring as she looked closely from one guilty face to the next.
"So." she said as it was evident she was very angry with her three boys.
"Morning, Mum." George greeted, in what he clearly thought was a jaunty, winning voice.
"Have you any idea how worried I've been?" Mrs. Weasley said in a deadly whisper.
"Sorry, Mum, but see, we had to -"
All three of Mrs. Weasley's sons were taller than she was, but they cowered as her rage broke over them.
"Beds empty! No note! Car gone … could have crashed … out of my mind with worry …did you care? …never, as long as I've lived…you wait until your father gets home, we never had trouble like this from Bill or Charlie or Percy …" She scolded as it was clear these three boys were in trouble.
"Perfect Percy," Fred muttered as Percy studied dragons in Romania.
"YOU COULD DO WITH TAKING A LEAF OUT OF PERCY'S BOOK!" yelled Mrs. Weasley, prodding a finger in Fred's chest. "You could have died, you could have been seen, and you could have lost your father his job-" She scolded as Al watched on with amusement on her face.
To both Al and Harry the shouting seemed to go on for hours until Mrs. Weasley finally turned on them, her attitude doing a complete 180 as she smiled fondly at them. "It's so good to see you two again. I'm sure you must be hungry, why don't you come in and join us for a spot of breakfast?" She said before turning around and striding into the house.
Harry and Al stared at her in surprise and with no small amount of uncertainty, but moved to follow her after Ron gave them a small push to get them to follow his mum.
Once inside the house, Rose couldn't seem to look at everything close enough, while it was a bit cramped in, the house was so clearly magical. Al had to stand and stare at several of the clocks on the wall that all seemed to be for different things, such as telling what time it was to do certain chores, or one that had the faces of all the family on the many hands of the clock while instead of numbers, it had things like At Home, At Work, Traveling and Dire Peril on it. She also took her time examining many of the books that were on and around the mantelpiece. Some were clearly old school books of some of the older kids, while others were household magic it yourself or cookbooks.
For Al she felt right at home a Grimoire is at her best in a magical place with her master after all. It was a proven fact during the Golden Age of the Magius.
The group were soon at the table as Harry and Al were eating a big plate as Harry swore Mrs. Weasley was trying to fatten him up. Al enjoyed her meal as she ate alongside Harry as breakfast was served.
"Good morning everyone." Came the voice as Joseph as he walked in tired but dressed for the day as Mrs. Weasley saw him.
"Good morning Joseph." Mrs. Weasley greeted as Joseph joined the table.
"Morning." Joseph greeted with a yawn as he sat down with his friends. "Elisa is still upstairs getting ready with Ginny." Joseph said as Harry smiled.
"Hey Joseph." Harry greeted as Joseph smiled.
"Hey Harry glad you can make it here." Joseph greeted back glad to see his childhood friend was ok.
"MMM, this is really good Mrs. Weasley!" She exclaimed, looking over to her brother who was shoveling as much food as he could as politely as he could, into his mouth.
"Thank you dear. Arthur and I had been worried about you two. If Ron or Ginny hadn't have gotten a letter by Friday we were going to come get you ourselves." She told her before shooting her son's another dirty look. "But really, anyone could have seen you flying in that car." Mrs. Weasley said as she then smiled at Joseph. "It was a good thing Joseph sent the letter but with the fiasco yesterday we were held up." Mrs. Weasley said as they were lucky to have gotten Joseph and Elisa when they did.
With a flick of her wand, the dishes started to clean themselves, causing Rose to stop eating for a moment to watch in envy at the tedious chore turned easy via magic before finishing her food off.
"It was cloudy, Mum!" Fred defended with his mouth full as he knew he was in trouble.
"You keep your mouth closed while you're eating!" Mrs. Weasley snapped as Joseph looked humorously at Fred.
"Mummy have you seen my jumper?" Ginny called as the red headed Weasley came down the stairs. "I can't find it and neither can Elisa and we looked everywhere for it." Ginny said as Elisa came downstairs to help with the search.
"Yes dear it was on the cat." Mrs. Weasley responded as when she did Ginny took notice to Harry sitting on the table eating his food.
"Hello." Harry greeted being the nice boy he was as Al glared a bit from her spot with jealousy on her features. Ginny was silent for a few moments before she ran off back up the stairs to find the cat and her Jumper.
Joseph, George, and Fred all laughed a bit as they saw Ginny run off like a love sick school girl. "What Did I do?" Harry asked as he saw this happen.
"That's Ginny she's been talking about you all summer, getting annoying really." Ron said as she looked to Harry before Joseph spoke up.
"I'm wagering she's quit infatuated with you." Joseph teased causing Harry to blush as Al scoffed trying to hide her own Jealousy. Then Joseph went wide eyed as he looked at his hand which had the Heir Ring for Salazar Slytherin as he saw his hand was shaking before he stood up. "Um please excuse me real quick." Joseph said as he made his way to the restroom of this house as he didn't seem well.
"What's up with him?" Ron asked as everyone just shrugged as Elisa saw Joseph was still reeling from what he did this summer. Soon a new person arrived as he was in a Ministry uniform while walking in. "Morning Weasley's!" He greeted as he walked in to which everyone greeted him even Harry, Al, and Elisa.
"What a night. 9 Raids, 9!" Arthur called as it seems he had a night shift last night.
Arthur soon joined the table after kissing his lovely wife on the cheek as Al smiled to this a bit as did Harry. Harry began to imagine himself in Arthur's place a bit but with the Organization and Jonathan and Another Blood on the table instead of him and Al greeting him as he came home. Harry of course swept that thought away not knowing if he and Al were really meant to be. After all the future is always changing and is never set in stone.
When Arthur sat down though he took notice to Harry and Al as he didn't remember these two as Weasley's. "And who may you two be?" Arthur asked as he looked to Harry and Al.
"Oh sorry sir, I'm Harry sir, Harry Potter." Harry introduced as he looked to Arthur.
"And I'm Al Azif sir pleasure to meet you." Al greeted as she looked to Arthur to introduce herself.
"Good Merlin are you really?" Arthur asked as he was mentally kicking himself for not realizing sooner. After all Al's hair color was hard to pull off naturally. "Well Ron has told us all about you two of course. When did they get here?" Arthur asked as he should really work on better welcoming surprise guests.
"This morning. Your sons had drove that enchanted car of your to Surrey and back last night." Mrs. Weasley said as Harry and Al could vouch for them on that.
"Did you really? How did it go!?" He asked wanting to see how the car ran and then got slapped by Mrs. Weasley in the arm. "I mean that was indeed very wrong of you boy very wrong of you." Arthur scolded even though he was forced to do the scolding to them.
"No Harry, and Al I'm sure you, Elisa, and Joseph must know all about muggles. Tell me what exactly, is the function, of a rubber duck?" Arthur asked as he was curious.
"Easy that's a bath toy." Al said as she looked to Arthur.
"Yes it's meant for bath time amusement." Elisa confirmed as she sat with the boys.
Soon the familiar sound of an owl was heard as everyone looked to the window where it came from. "That should be Errol with the post." Mrs. Weasley said as they saw the old Owl flying in. As the Owl flew it then ended up flying straight into the window hurting itself as it fell down.
"Oohh that's gotta hurt." Al said as Harry looked hoping the old brown post owl was ok.
"Ooh fetch the mail will you Percy." Mrs. Weasley said as Percy nodded to that.
"Got it." Percy said as he went to get the mail.
"He's always doing that." Ron complained as he swore that Owl needed a helmet just as Percy picked up the mail from the owl.
"Oh look it's our Hogwarts Letters." Percy said he took out the letters. "Her sent us Harry, Al, Elisa, and Joseph's as well." Percy said handing the letters to everyone.
"I'll give Joseph his letter." Elisa said as she hoped Joseph was ok while taking her and Joseph's letters.
"Dumbledore must know your all here. Doesn't miss a trick that bad." Arthur said as the letters were passed around.
"These aren't going to come cheap mum the spell books we need are very expensive." Fred said as he looked at the supplies for this semester.
"We'll manage." Mrs. Weasley said as she looked at the list. "There's only one place we're gonna get all of this." Mrs. Weasley said as Al and everyone here knew what it was she was talking about.
"Diagon Alley." Mrs. Weasley said as everyone could agree on that one.
(Meanwhile with Joseph)
Joseph had went into the bathroom once he knew it was free as he held his arm which was shaking violently as he was gasping to himself. As Joseph looked to his reflection in the mirror as he tried to control himself. "Is the deed you have done affecting you my child?" Came the voice Joseph knew all too well.
"Shut up." Joseph cursed as he knew who it was speaking to him as the shadows moved once more as Joseph saw this.
"You cannot deny your true nature for long boy I had agreed to give you time to be a normal Hogwarts Student but that does not mean I would allow you to shirk your duties of your blood." The voice of Joseph's birth father said as Joseph growled.
"I know I can't beat you and I did due my duties by using the Black Lodge in your and the other Eldritch Gods names." Joseph said knowing what was to come.
"With that recent incident with Blood and Rose it seemed otherwise." The Eldritch Being said as Joseph sat on a seat to cover his ears from this Eldritch God's whispers. "You are a monster my child always have been and always will be so please as a warning ensure Project C reaches completion and also don't fully deny yourself." The being began as Joseph got up to the mirror and saw not his face but Master Therion's face.
"After all Joseph you and I are eternally linked." Master Therion said in the reflection as Joseph roared out and threw the hand mirror as shattering it. Joseph saw what he did and quickly acted with his wand and repaired the mirror making it as good as knew putting it back where he left it. Joseph then sat down on the seat with his hands to his face knowing the pain he had caused Harry this past summer. The pain of ripping away his last remaining family member and killing his baby sister for a second time.
"Harry… I'm so sorry." Joseph said knowing Harry wouldn't hear him as he began to break down a bit as the signs of his Eldritch Blood were becoming stronger with each birthday.
"Joseph?" Came Elisa's voice from outside the door with a knock as Joseph looked.
"Yes Elisa?" Joseph greeted as he opened the door to see her holding the Hogwarts Letters for 2nd year.
"These arrived for us." Elisa said as Joseph took the letter belonging to him and nodded.
"Understood thank you Elisa." Joseph said as Elisa nodded before the two went downstairs to join the others and also get ready for a trip to Diagon Alley. As they left the shadows moved for a moment before vanishing showing that Joseph's birth father was keeping a close eye on his offspring and the dark mission he was placed upon this earth to complete.
(TBC)
ESKK: Well here we are a new chapter done and with this we officially start Harry's 2nd year at Hogwarts. Now then as you leave be sure to put in a review and as I have always said ja-ne.
