The Intervention
CHAPTER 1
The two heirs of hers have been divided
They need to be united
For those with guns will surely come
Destroy our world, our homes and sons.
Bind and Combine the lines, conceal our secrets
Ignore and they won't bury us
We'll burn, we'll cry and lady magic will die
The words echoed around the circle of witches and wizards who'd been pulled together by Lady Magic herself.
"Bloody hell" Ron murmured
"I believe that you've summed it up perfectly Mr Weasley" Drawled Lucius Malfoy
"Our Lord needs to have a heir" Bellatrix whispered looking pleased
"With Harry" Draco pointed out, but Bella waved him off.
"Still a child, our Lord's child"
"And Harry's" Draco drawled.
"Who won't do this" Hermione added
Harry who was reeling from the reveal of the prophecy, managed to squash his rising emotions to pierce the group of gossips with a fiery glare.
"Gee thanks for deciding my life for me" he drawled sarcastically, and they all looked sheepish.
"It's just, you can't be considering this?" Hermione asked softly
"You heard it too right? We'll die and I have no intentions of dying because of muggles"
"So you're going to fulfil it?" Draco asked him and Harry snorted
"I just heard it, give a guy a minute"
"Is it fake?, like the other one. How can we know it's not a trick?" Questioned Luna
"I don't think it is. I can feel it." Harry admitted and the tears building in her eyes started to fall down her face.
"This isn't fair Snake, she expects to much from you" Luna cried climbing to sit in Harry's lap, where he rubbed soothing circles on her lap.
"No she doesn't. This isn't her fault, you're just trying to find someone to blame. now there's fate if they're real I'd blame them because they like to fuck with my life." Harry joked and Luna gave him a watery chuckle and a small smile
"They?" Ron asked amused
"Yeah twins. What I'd imagine fate being, meddlesome, creative prankster twins like the two we have to put up with" Harry said with a grin at the Weasley twins who mock bowed.
"We are honoured that you think so highly of us" they said together
"My Lord?" Snape murmured looking towards the snake faced man in the room, who seemed to be frozen in a mixture of emotions.
"Hello witches and wizards. It is time for an intervention" That voice echoed around the dome. Before the dome shifted and a woman with glowing long blonde hair, an hour glass figure dressed in a white Egyptian style dress and bare foot. "Before we begin, lets remove all those glamours. Lady magic would like to see her creations" clicking her fingers and The Dark Lord wasn't snake faced anymore, he was an older version of Tom Riddle. Harry's scrawny features filled, he grew several inches, his hair lengthened still messy but more manageable and how it framed his face that didn't look sickly anymore. Still pale, but his pureblood ancestry made him look stunning and his eyes now they were unglamoured were brighter, avada kedavra green eerily beautiful. That wasn't what Tom was looking at he was looking at the band round Harry's neck in fury.
"Who put that on you?" He hissed and Harry blinked before his hand shot to the band
"Who do you think?" Harry drawled
"Why would he bind your magic?" Snape asked in horror
"Because he fears me"
"How long?" Hermione asked
"Since I was a baby. Necromancers usually get sent to azkaban or killed, he wanted to use me as a tool so he bound my magic" Harry informed them
"Potters aren't necromancers" Bellatrix pointed out and Harry nodded
"Potters aren't, but I'm not just a Potter" Harry answered evasively
"Why haven't you removed it?" Snape asked
"I can't. It's not like I haven't tried" Harry ground out and Tom's eyes narrowed
"it will break when you come into your inheritance. Excruciatingly painful experience"
"Lovely"
"Unless you allow me to remove it" Tom added
"Why would you do that?" Harry asked shocked
"You're not the only one he did that too. It's foul" Tom hissed
"You should be thanking him, not offering to help me" Harry said bewildered.
"Possibly during my insanity I would have done, but since my mind has returned to me, have I not left you alone?" Tom questioned
"Other then becoming our DADA Professor" Harry pointed out
"Yes well Hogwarts needed someone competent, who is more fitting then I?" Tom smirked
"And the link you fail to close" Harry added
"That goes both ways, that vampire slayer you rid the world of was becoming a nuisance" Tom drawled
"Before we continue I'm afraid there's something else you two need to be aware of" Lady Magic interrupted
"What else?" Harry asked her
"the reason the curse failed, why you lost your sanity, why you didn't see your parents in the mirror of erised. Why your sanity has returned, why you have never hated him" She listed
"Will you just spit it out" Harry told her
"Please don't hate me. You're soul mates" She said it so quietly but Harry heard it scream into his mind
"They're what?" Narcissa asked
"They are soul mates" Lady Magic repeated louder but this time she sounded giddy.
"Why would you do that to him?" Luna snapped from her place in Harry's lap who hadn't reacted from the shock.
"Do you know how soul mates are given Miss Lovegood?" Tom asked her
"Bloodlines"
"And what are the most influential bloodlines in our world?"
"Hogwarts Founders" She relented
"Then it should have been expected" Tom drawled
"You expected a soul mate?" Hermione asked him curiously
"I said it should have been, not that I did" Tom drawled again
"So that's it we can leave?" Harry finally spoke with only a look to Lady Magic
"No Harry not yet. There's still much to discuss" She replied with a bright smile
"You know him?" Lucius asked her noticing how the two interacted
"I know all of you, what you're questioning is does he know me hmm?" Lady Magic corrected and Lucius nodded
"I met Harry when he was 5. He was dead, and it broke my heart I begged for Death not to take him that he was to young, to special. Death told me he had no intentions of taking him, that Harry was too interesting. So I watched him grow, visited from time to time, only when he started Hogwarts could we talk about magic. Though he already knew what he was, already realised that someone wanted him weak and broken. So he played that old goats game got sorted into Gryffindor, risked his life year after year. He wanted revenge for Dumbledore's manipulations, for his order as did all the youth you see here." Magic informed them
"You died at 5 years old" Narcissa said in horror
"I tried to die at 5 years old, I wasn't allowed" Harry corrected
"You tried to kill yourself at 5 years of age?" Snape realised
"He wasn't treated like a prince, he wasn't treated like a house elf he was treated much worse." She stated
"You're over exaggerating" Harry huffed
"Oh do house elves get starved?, get beaten? Made to cook, clean, wash up with broken bones? Do they get raped? Well do they Harry, would you treat Winky, Dobby or Kreacher like that?" she hissed
"I don't fear house elves. They knew what I was and didn't want it brought into their home" Harry pointed out
"Do not defend them to me!" Lady magic hissed in rage
"They raped you? Your own family?" Luna asked horrified
"No. They lived to lavish, holidays, cars, got into debt with people who were the worst types of muggles. So they made me have sex from the age of 8 with whoever showed up, and they continued with their lavish lifestyle because I meant nothing to them. Though the fat oaf did try once but I couldn't control my magic at that time and I lost it. Dumbledore showed up before I could kill him though" Harry said in a tone that suggested it was no big deal
"They violated a child and he knew" Narcissa said in fury.
"That's why you considered the prophecy. You think being used is okay. Snake it's not okay, its so far from okay. We can't let you do this" Hermione said being comforted by Draco as she sobbed for her friend.
"So you're going to see our world burn?" Harry asked
"There must be some other way!"
"We wouldn't be here if there was"
"why would you agree to this? Why are you giving up?" She asked
"You need to read books. On soul mates and real prophecies you're being illogical and emotional because you don't know enough." Harry soothed and she nodded taking a deep calming breathe whilst lady magic summoned books on the topic and passed them to Hermione.
"There's potions" Snape interjected
"That sever the bond, risk our magic and let's not forget about the prophecy the one about magical extinction" Harry sneered
"How could you be willing after what you've been through?" Lucius asked
"I still want to kill Dumbledore and fix the world. It's unexpected but that's my life" Harry shrugged
"You're taking this rather well" lady magic assessed
"Hmm yeah, going to let me leave yet?" Harry asked hopeful
"No Harry soon" she said before turning her attention to Bellatrix Lestrange
"They attacked you and made you believe your son died" Lady Magic said softly
"He's not dead" Neville stated
"What? No we saw it! they took him from us!" Bellatrix said furious that it was being brought up
"I am alive, I'm your son" Neville told her
"I almost killed my own baby" Bellatrix told Rodolphus who laughed when Neville replied
"You were no way close to killing me" before he was pulled so he was standing with Bellatrix going from crushing his ribs with hugs to peppering his face with kisses.
"This is amazing, I can't believe it! what sort of name is Neville? You're name is Orion I never want to hear anyone call him Neville again is that clear. Ill curse any of you, my baby boy is alive" Bellatrix beamed and Harry had to admit that the couple looked younger already, and the resemblance was remarkable
"Thanks Snake" Orion said sincerely, Bellatrix paused in her babbling and turned to Harry.
"You did this, how?"
"They're in mungos, Ori wanted to know what happened we thought it may have been to do with the fake prophecy but it didn't feel right. So I healed them temporarily, found what Ori wanted and left them there" Harry explained, Bellatrix planted a kiss on his cheek which made a smacking sound
"I like you, think I'll keep you" she beamed before going back to petting her son's hair
"Why didn't you stop them? Or take him away? How could you leave them when you knew?" Snape asked Lady magic
"She asked me what I wanted, I wanted revenge. I don't live there anymore, that part of my life is over." Harry said not wanting to discuss it anymore
"Well I think you all need some time to digest the news. So you can leave when you're ready" Lady Magic told them and Harry gave a wave to Lady Magic before he shadowed away.
"He'll never hate you" Luna said in a way of comfort before she skipped out of the dome. Lady magic sighed when she was alone wishing there was some other way.
