before I start with my regular mojo shtick, I want to say thank you to MarkAlfred for placing my story in his/her favorite stories list. and now, we continue with our regularly scheduled broadcast!
Hey guys! so this is going to be another long chapter. In this chapter, there will be argument. Not violent ones, mind you. And thankfully, this will take place in the
Tardis. Also, Smith and Hermione will start theorizing about the causes of harry's tendency of becoming socially awkward. And another thing, Guys don't forget to post a review on the story. I'm very interested on hearing your feedback. ME: well then, guess that everybody's here. I Don't Own Doctor Who or Harry Potter.
(just letting you know) Also, to those who don't know what i'm referring to by "ten", That's short for the Tenth Doctor. Who was played by david tennant. Also this is my first fan fic, So please don't judge me too harshly.
When Joe and ten got inside the Tardis, Joe immediately went for the Captain's Chair. Sitting down, he started to breathe rapidly through his nose
like a an angry bull. Ten noticed that Joe's face was twisted with emotions. He could see rage, guilt and sadness on his face at the same time. Traveling with Joe
for a while now, Ten did the only thing that he knew that would calm him down. He tried to change the subject. "should we find the others?" ten asked Joe. Silently
praying to himself, ten hoped that lily could calm this Oncoming Storm that was still building up in Joe. Because even though ten would get angry himself, this was
nothing he has ever faced before. never has he ever encountered an anger like this in his 900 something years of his existence. Nodding, Joe got up and walked out
of the control room. With Ten leading the way. "Actually" joe said mentally, who was too tired to take physically. "i'm going to take a shower. Please find Hermoine
and take her Harry's room. Please?" Joe begged mentally. Sighing, Ten agreed to do as he asked. "But you will talk to harry later." ten said in a serious tone to Joe.
then collapsing on the floor, joe started to gasp heavily. "what's wrong?" ten asked in a panicked tone. "remember a few weeks ago, how I collapsed in my room with
lily?" Joe asked him. "Yeah. what about it?" Ten asked in return. "I met the evil side of me. A shadow version you might say." Joe began to explain. "Yes, Yes,Yes. you
told me already. Evil version of you wanted to possess you and then wanted to kill me and the others. So what is it?" ten told him in a hurried, yet bored tone. "I \
think... I think i'm turning into him." Joe whispered in a panic stricken voice. "pffh, that's absolutely pure, unadulterated rubbish." Ten scoffed. "i'm sure of it doctor."
joe insisted angrily. "Do you feel any remorse?" ten asked seriously. "not for the ginger boy, but for what I put harry through." joe said. "Nobody should ever
experience what happened to harry back there." Joe whispered. "For the last bloody time, you are not the cause for what happened back there ." ten said angrily.
"But it's my fault for what Harry experienced. I put him through that." Joe said in the same tone. "Did you say those horrible words to Harry? No. Did you know when
you first kissed him, that this would happen? No. So stop blaming yourself for what happened in the past and focus in the here and now." ten ranted. Getting up, Joe
gave the doctor a bone breaking hug. "Joe, I've known you for a while now. And from what I can see, you are a good man." ten said to him soothingly. "Thank you,
thank you so much." Joe whispered. "Doc i'm going to talk to harry. But first, let me take a shower and get myself cleaned up first. OK?" joe asked. "by all means."
Ten said approvingly. Running for his room, joe stopped and turned to face the doctor. "hey doctor!" joe said. "Yah?" ten asked. giving him a mock salute, joe said
"thank you for everything." he then turned around and raced back to his room. (cue in the 2008 tenth doctor intro)
Inside harry's room:
Harry was shaking with silent sobs. Why? Why would Ron say those things? Why can't he be a normal wizard? Why did that bastard have to ruin one of the best
moments in his life? Harry was past the point of containing his composure. "Why can't I ever get a break?" he pleaded to no one in the room. Then there was knock
on his door. He didn't bother to respond. "Harry? it's me, the doctor." Ten's voice announced. "what do you want?" "I've got hermione with me because she wants to
talk to you." Ten pleaded from behind the door. "She only probably wants to Dehumanize me further." Harry cried before suppressing some more sobs. "Harry, I have
no intention of dehumanizing you. just let me in will you?" Hermione's voice rang from behind the door. Pausing for a few seconds, he started up again. "My pride and
dignity was tarnished because of a certain half-wit ginger." harry spat venomously. Taking a breath, he continued. "And besides, nobody in their right mind would
EVER love a freak like me." he finished. "Well I still love you. Does that make me insane?" Hermione's shrill voice answered from the outside. There was a pause.
Then Harry got up and opened the door. Opening the door, he was pushed back onto his bed by a brown haired blur. "Hermione?" ten said. "yes?" Hermione said.
"Umm, I think Harry needs to breathe." Ten said with grin on his face. "oh, my bad." Hermione said with a shade of pink on both of her cheeks. "Mione?" Harry asked.
"yes, Harry?" she asked. "do you still love me?" Harry asked in a scared. It was if he was scared of her saying 'no'. "yes" she instantly replied, thus banishing any fear
of being rejected away. Then Hermione gave him a most passionate kiss on his lips. "Ewwwww. I think i'm going to be sick." Ten said in a fake sick tone. Harry
replied by giving him a rude hand gesture. Rolling his eyes, ten closed the door. "So Immature." he teased. "Like you're any better?" Harry said jokingly as the door
closed. "Oi! Timelords are not immature!" ten cried indignantly from outside the door. "Much" Harry retorted. when no response came, Hermione then grabbed him by
the collar of his shirt and pulled him back to her. And soon after, they resumed where they left off. To Harry, it was like sweet intoxication.
(page break cause i'm a jerk XD)
They both resumed on and off for a while, before someone knocked on the door. "come in" harry said, breaking away from Hermione. It was Joe. and he
looked a bit nervous about something. "Hi. ummm, is this a bad time?" joe asked sheepishly. "no, come on in." Harry said invitingly. "Actually, I need to borrow
Hermione a bit. only for a little bit." Joe added, seeing the suspicious look on her face. "alright, i'll be with you in a moment." Hermione called to Joe. "Splendid.
meet me in the control room when you have the time." joe said with a crooked smile on his face as he left. "What on earth does he want to talk to you about?" harry
asked his girlfriend. "I dont know. But whatever it is, it better be good." she muttered, causing Harry to smirk. Hermione gave Harry a quick peck before closing the
door behind her. Then, she walked to the control room. "So joe, what is it that you wanted to talk to me about?" she asked. "Ah Hermione, glad you could make it. I
just need to tell you something." joe happily said to her. "well, what is it?" she asked, seeing the excited look on joe's face. "I'm going to be working in the hospital
wing this year." he said to her. "OH MY GOD, CONGRATULATIONS !" Hermione cried before running towards him and giving him a massive bear hug. "eerrr hermione?
timelords need to breath too ya know?" joe that she was crushing him, Hermione released Joe. "What did madam Pomfrey say to this?" she said with
barely contained excitement. "well when she found out at first, lets say she got quite angry. because she thought I was going to replace her. But when she found out
who was going to work alongside her, she asked Dumbledore why she wasn't getting any help at all." joe explained happily. "Congratulations Joe. Was healing always
a career that interested you?" Hermione asked. "not always. I just know that i'm damn good at it." joe said with a smirk. "does the Doctor and the others know?" she
asked him. "yes" Joe confirmed for her. "Also" joe added before sneezing. "gesundheit" Hermione said. "Danke" joe replied. there was a short pause. "what were you
going to say Joe?" Hermione asked. "Well I've got a request for you." Joe said in a serious manner. "and what would that be?" Hermione asked. "Well since I can't
always be by Harry's side, I'm asking you to fill in for me." Joe told her. Seeing the look of 'Please continue' on Hermione's face, Joe continued. "As you know, most of
the magical world hates his guts. They're calling him a liar, a 'dangerous' individual or some other garbage. So this year is going to be tough on him." joe explained.
"He's going to need someone to look out for him." he sighed before continuing. "I know that you were given the position of being a Prefect, and I know you have your
OWL'S this year. But Harry needs someone with him besides me, lily, the doctor and rose." joe said. "and that someone is you" he added seriously.
(Page break)
Hermione was simply gob smacked. "Joe... I don't know what to say." she started to say before Joe cut her off. "do you know harry hasn't stopped talking you over
the summer?" Joe asked her. Her cheeks turned pink. "he talks about me?" she asked, shocked beyond all pretense. "All the bloody time. He's absolutely crazy about
Hermione." he said while rolling his eyes in exasperation of the amount of times he's mentioned the girl. "Intentionally or unintentionally Miss Granger, you stole my
protege's heart." he said jokingly while wiping a fake tear away from his eyes. this caused her to laugh. "I love him, Joe. I do." she said before pausing to chew the
bottom of her lip, trying to find the right words."Are you alright?" he asked with a frown. "I'm fine. it's just that...It's just that I don't know how or when he started to
realize he had feelings for me. I mean whenever I was around him, he always seemed shy or he had a sliver of dread when I would talk to him." she said in a
confused tone. "think about it from his perspective Hermione." joe said, pausing to take breath. "He's been left to live with abusive relatives after his family was
attacked by Voldemort." joe said, ignoring the teenage girl's flinch at the name. "His magic hating relatives then began to torment Harry physically and mentally.
Practically making him feel unwanted, unloved and it also made him feel like a freak." Joe said with a faint anger in his voice. Taking a few deep breaths to calm
himself, joe continued. "Then when he turned 11, Harry finds out he's a wizard and that he is the cause of Voldemort's first downfall." Joe paused, hoping his words
got to Hermione. The evidence pointing towards success was her eyes opening all the way due to realization. "And then he meets and eventually has friendship with a
beautiful young lady who turns out to be the brightest witch of her age." Joe said, smiling at Hermione's pink face. "He says those things about me?" she asked. He
nodded to her in confirmation. "do you know why he was always like this around me?" she asked him. "I have one theory. do you want to hear it?" he offered. she
then nodded for him to continue. Joe then proposed his theory. "I think the problem was that until the 3 of us came into his life." Joe said, referring to himself, rose
and ten. "He was shy of revealing his feelings for you due to a possible fear of you leaving him if you ever found out." He said out loud. Seeing that her eyes were
starting to water, Joe then promptly got up and sat down right next to her. "oh mione" Joe sighed sadly as he gave her a massive hug. "I sometimes wish that...
harry wasn't so shy when I first met him." hermione sobbed into joe's shoulder. "I know hermione. I know" joe whispered soothingly into her ear. "and when I found
out that harry was in the hospital wing after the third task, I thought he wasn't going to make it." she continued to sob. "Don't get me wrong hermione, I thought we
were going to loose him. But good old harry managed to defy the odds and survived." he chuckled. Reaching for his wand, he conjured a tissue and gave it to
Hermione who gratefully accepted it. Then he pulled her into a tighter embrace, soothing her for many minutes. she seemed to finally calm down by the time he let go
of her.
(another line break)
"Joe?" she asked. "yes?" he said. "Why did I feel two heartbeats?" she asked him seriously. "Timelords have a Twin Binary vascular system." he answered as if it
solved her question. "oohh" she answered. "anything else?" he asked her cheekily. "can you do that trick again?" she asked him hopefully. "I have many tricks, which
one?" Joe asked while raising a eyebrow. "the trick where you have the golden energy in your eyes." she answered. "ok. but just this once." he told her sternly. she
then pouted for a bit before agreeing. closing his eyes and concentrating on the energy, joe felt it push towards his eyes. Then he opened them. Hermione was scared
and yet amazed by what she saw. Water blue eyes were replaced with shining golden eyes filled with golden energy, looked right at her. She turned to look away
from him, frightened of his stare. she then had to go into a fetal position on the couch that she was sitting on. She was terrified beyond her wits. Joe then closed his
eyes, and the terrifying golden orbs were replaced with his regular eyes. looking down, joe gasped at what he did. He had unintentionally terrorized Harry's girlfriend.
"Hermione" Joe whispered to her. No response, only a whimper. thinking desperately, he decided to use telepathy. "mione, talk to me please." he begged her
mentally. she then turned to face him, eyes wide with surprised and fear etched on them. "I'm sorry I scared you." joe said apologetically. she gave no response. he
than grabbed hold of her hand and then sunk down to look straight into her eyes. chocolate brown met water blue. "I need to tell you something." he told her. "what
is it?" she whispered. "I've got a copy of 'All Quiet On The Western Front' signed by Erich Maria Remarque himself." he told her. Her eyes widened considerably. "So
since I finished it for the hundredth time, I decided to give it to you." he said while smiling. Handing it to her with shaking hands due to nervousness, joe prayed she
wasn't still going to hate him for what he unintentionally did. She gave joe a bone breaking hug. And little did they know that on that day, Hermione and Joe would
become best friends. She would always confide things to him that she couldn't with harry and vice versa. "Joe, I forgive you. I may still be frightened about what
happened, but I know you didn't mean to hurt me." she said. "maybe we should call it 'flashing'." he offered. It took within seconds for the both of them to break
down with laughter. "your right. we could call it that." she concurred, regaining her composure. "i'm going back to Harry's room. he's probably thinking you stole me."
she said with a grin. "OK. you do that." joe said as she was leaving. "Oh and by the way hermione?" he called after her. "yeah?" she asked. "could you possibly
consider what I requested earlier?" he asked with the cutest puppy eyes. "Of course I will." she replied happily. "Oh and joe?" she called. "yes Hermione?" he asked.
"your a good man. Thank you for saving harry's life." she told him with a serious look on her face. she then left, joe alone in the tardis control room lost in his own
thoughts on what the hell just happened. Then ten walked in. "you alright? you look like someone has said the sweetest thing you've ever heard in your life." he
asked, upon seeing the look on joe's face. "she said that" joe stammered. "who said what?" ten asked annoyed. "That I'm a. that... I'm a good man." joe said finally.
He then ran out of the console room yelling like a madman. "oh for god's sake." ten muttered in exasperation, while shaking his head in amusement.
Well I hope you guys had a grand old time reading this chapter. Also what do you want Joseph smith's patronus to be? there are 3 options.
1. A large wolf with golden eyes (Bad wolf perhaps?)
2. peregrine falcon
3. Thestral
Personally, I want his patronus to be the bad wolf. But it's up to you to decide. So post a review for what you want to happen.
To address some things: so yes, Umbridge will be the DADA teacher. and yes, harry will get those detentions with her. But on the plus side, Joe will show her why it's not wise to piss off a protective time lord. well, until next time. Bis später !
