The Queen of Veela Iolanthe, watched as Harry Potter cast multiple fireballs at dummies. He was still getting used to the idea that he was a Veela Prince. In the week since leaving Hogwarts, Harry had helped his friend Ms Hermione Granger find her ancestry, as well as falling ever more in love with the half veela Draco malfoy.
Harry was waiting, to mate with Draco out of respect for his feelings. It was plain for all to see, how Draco felt about Harry. Yet there was a pressing issue, that of Draco's father Lucius Malfoy. He had written to Draco ordering the younger Malfoy home to Britain, and that he was never to see Harry again. Lucius had gone so far as to threaten Draco's inheritance.
Harry's cousin Fleur had received a letter from Molly Weasley asking her to join the Weasleys for a family dinner. Harry had warned Fleur that Dumbledore would try to force his location out of her. She didn't go.
"Mother, the Dragon King is here along with the Phoenix King and Queen." Nicholas said. Iolanthe sat straighter in her chair. It had been nigh on 1000 years since the rulers of the magical world had met together in peace.
The noble Veela gathered around her as the doors to her palace opened and the Dragon royal Family entered. The Dragon king was in Human form and was 7ft tall. His hair was black as the night and his eyes were cold. His dress was rather stylized. He wore a suit of Golden Scaled armor, with an embossed Dragon in flight. His features were feminine and masculine.
Beside him was his Queen, and she was similar to the King. her armor was sliver and her hair was Brown. Behind them were the Dragon court nobles. They walked to the center of the chamber and the king spoke with a booming voice. "Queen Iolanthe of Veela, greetings from the Dragon court."
Iolanthe inclined her head. "King Darius and Queen Arsinoë welcome to Veela. May peace be between us". Harry bowed to the Dragon king and introduced Draco and Hermione. "My lord may I introduce my future Mate Draco Malfoy and my friend Hermione Granger?"
The king was surprised. "Granger did you say?" Harry nodded. "Yes your majesty. She is indeed a Granger." Harry stared at the king for a moment and then turned his attention to the Dragon Queen. "Your Majesty, welcome. May I offer you tea?"
Arsionë inclined her head and she smiled "do you have Jasmine and crushed pine needle?" her voice was musical and light much like Fawkes'. Harry shook his head "no unfortunately, as Jasmine gives me hives. I do have the Pine tea which is hopefully suitable?" he replied respectfully. The Queen nodded and Harry sent for a mug.
The doors swung open and the Phoenix King walked in. he was accompanied by his wife and eldest son. Like the Dragons the Phoenix were in human form. He was squat, with red hair and pale cheeks, his robes were gold, with silver flames embossed on them. His wife wore identical robes and her hair was done in a top not.
"Iolanthe and Darius, we bid you greetings from the Court of Phoenix. May the peace last" Iolanthe rose and stepped forwards "King Lysander and Queen Merrow, Prince Bastian and Nobles of the Phoenix court welcome to Veela." she indicated the royal sitting room and suggested that the Kings and Queens retire for tea. Everyone agreed.
Harry sighed with relief as the royal party moved off. He was tired from his training and From playing gracious host. "Draco kiss me before I do something insane" he suggested. "Gladly" Draco agreed. They leaned in and Draco pressed his lips to Harry's. Both moaned at the contact and Harry smirked when Hermione huffed and stalked away.
"Now that we are alone, why don't we go…. " Harry whispered in Draco's ear. Draco blushed furiously and nodded his head viciously. Lacing their fingers together Harry lead the way to his room.
An hour later Harry and his friends were summoned to the Tea room, by the Veela Queen. Harry's Grandfather was standing behind his mother with a look on his face, which made harry pause for concern.
"Prince Harry. Can you explain why you think you may have killed Slytherin?" asked King Darius. Harry bowed. "In my second year at Hogwarts, there were several cases of Students becoming petrified. The school was informed that the monster of Slytherin was loose and would kill, given the chance.
"I along with a former friend went down to the chamber of Secrets after said former friends sister had been taken. I met Tom Riddle better known as Lord Voldemort, and after having a conversation I killed the Basilisk. It wasn't until two days ago that I learned the Slytherin himself might have been that snake."
A commotion at the door saw Hermione pulled into the room by the Prince of Phoenix, who held her by the hair. "Father this Bitch refused to give me what I wanted." he complained. There was a crackling of energy and everyone turned to Iolanthe. "Release her Prince Bastian Now." she commanded in a deadly voice. As he let go, Hermione stumbled and fell to the floor. Prince Damian of The Dragon Court rushed forward to help her up.
"What happened Hermione? What did he do?" Nick asked. Hermione looked at Bastian and said "he wanted a book that I was reading. I offered to share it but he refused the offer. After pinning me to the ground I changed and swiped him across the chest with my talons. He pulled my tail and forced me back to human form and brought me here."
"What is your shape girl?" asked Queen Merrow. Hermione smiled and said proudly "I am a Phoenix. My name is Hermione Granger." the King went whiter than a ghost. "Granger? You are the last of the Grangers? Then you are Empress of the Phoenix Court" he bowed.
The rest of the assembly bowed too. The Queen slapped her son across the back of the head. "You pulled her tail? You know that that could have broken her. And she is a guest of Veela? My son you have sickened us. We demand you return home.'she said imperiously. Bastion scowled and nodded, vanishing in a puff of flames.
"Your most serene Majesty, Please forgive Us our sons cruelty" the King begged. He looked at her with pleading eyes.
At her acknowledgement everyone relaxed.
"Now. Are the founders alive? And if so where are they?" Iolanthe asked. "They will need to be found. And we must deal with Voldemort and Dumbledore. They are getting too big for their britches. I want Dumbledore brought before us on charges relating to the safety and health of the heir to the throne of Veela, not to mention the misuse of magic."
Darius leaned forward. "The founders are indeed alive. They are in a stasis like sleep in the Dragon city. I will have them move here, along with all their writings. We were able to translate a few words. 'Awaken us by those who best showcase our house. They will know the way. They are our heirs'." he fell quiet.
Nick stroked his beard. "Hmm. who are the best Puff and Raven, Harry? Draco?" he asked. Draco thought for a moment "Cedric Diggory is the most Like Hufflepuff, but he died. And for Ravenclaw? I'd say Luna love-good, wouldn't you harry?" he asked turning to Harry.
"Yes I'd agree with you there." everyone smiled, and Lysander clapped his hands together. "I assume we need to undone some magic?" he smirked cheekily. "But how can you undo death?" Hermione asked shrilly. "We are magic your most serene majesty. We can command magic to do what we want. And besides, nobody can die unless all three rulers are in agreement. Iolanthe did not agree when Diggory was supposedly killed so he is merely sleeping, waiting to be re-awoken."
"Are my parents sleeping?" Harry asked hopefully. But Lysander shook his head "I am truly sorry my boy. We did not know of the connection between Prince Nicholas and your mother, otherwise we would have undone the spell". Harry nodded and Darius rose "Prince Harry, please forgive us. We simply did not know." harry nodded again "I understand your Majesties it's just, for a moment I thought that I could have them back. But I forgive you. As much as I hate it I understand." he hugged Draco tightly and wrapped his arms around Hermione for old times sake.
