I wonder... what triggered... that outburst...
Chaos...
Chaos is one word to describe the situation in number 12 Grimmauld Place.
There were order members running around, people were shouting at each other. Some discussions were so loud that the kids outside the kitchen door didn't even have to use extendable ears.
"Order" Dumbedore started "order in the Order," some Order members groaned it was an really old, bad pun that Dumbledore had started soon after the making of the Order.
"As you all know, there was an attack on Diagon Alley this afternoon, to the best of our knowledge therre were no casualities, civilian or Order," Dumbledore said.
"What do you mean 'to the best of our knowledge'" Hestia Jones asked.
"Well after the attack Diagon Alley was almost unrecogniseable, it was flooded, there were large ice-shards lying around, large holes in the earth and cliffs several feet up into the air and the fire in some of those carcasses wont die. So you see it is hard to see if there are any civilian bodiess in that... that hell."
Every Order member who hadn't been on the zone was gaping at the Headmaster not only for his description but also for his choice of words.
Then he murmured under his breath "And Nymphadora is missing too."
"What happened to Tonks?" Mrs. Weasley asked "and what carcasses? You said there weren't any casualties?"
"There weren't any casualties on the light side, but I can assure you there are very few Death Eaters alive after that attack and those who are, are have been rendered immobile. As for Nymphadora, her whereabouts remain unknown. She was abducted by the man who destroyed Diagon Alley." Dumbledore explained.
"What! Death Eaters abducted Tonks, why isn't she being looked for." Mrs.Weasley ranted.
"Because we don't have a starting point. It wasn't a Death Eater who kidnaped her. It was the one who killed them." there was total silence. "He was dressed in a silver robe and is exteamly powerful. I have a reason to belive that he is competent with wandless and elemental magic, which is what destroyed the Alley, and the Death Eaters in it. This mysterious man could be more powerful than myself or Voldemort. It would be a dissaster if he turned against us. We must meet with him and convince him to join us. And now for less urgent things, Kingley can you go to Gringotts and pick up some money from young Mr .Potter's vault, the Order is running short on funds."
In Surrey said mysterious man was sitting on a chair at the side of a bed waching beutiful young brown haired woman unconscious on the bed.
Harry was thinking about the attack on Diagon Alley. He had killed a man, well a couple of men, nearer to dozen of men. Ah, who was he kidding, he had killed at least thirty men, most of it had been uncontolled, but he had killed at least one with a spell, maybe more with those reducto. Then there was that minor, uncontrolled, elemental outburst. What was major outburst and what would happen when he learned to control it?
Harry was brought out of his musings by laughter from his bed. Tonks stopped laughing, cried in pain and shot up into a sitting position. The pieces of paper that were placed on her forehead and chest fell off and she cried again in pain. She felt like her head was splitting and her organs felt like they were about to burst open at any minute. She was in so much pain that she almost didn't feel Harry put her back into lying position and cut her finger. She then felt something wet placed on her forehead and then between her breast and felt the pain subdue almost immediately.
"Do you always fondle the women you bring home while they're unconscious?" she asked
Harry spluttered in embarrassment and started apologising
"Um... sorry Tonks... it was only for the healing and... um..."
Tonks took one look at Harrys face and started laughing.
"Sorry Harry you are just too easy," Tonks said "but what were you doing to my forehead and my um... chest? And what was that awful pressure?"
"Well... I was using my runes to try to heal you... and it's working." Harry said.
"How do you know it's working?" Tonks asked.
"You felt it when I cut your finger?" Harry asked.
Tonks nodded
"Look at it." Harry said
She did and almost screamed in shock. There was nothing there, not even a scratch.
"That's how I know it's working, the one on your head is working on mental and brain darmage and stopping your headache, the one on your uh... chest is working on your organs and perventing you from feeling the pain you should be in, which is a good thing judging by your reaction when they fell off you." Harry explained "As for the pressure you felt, it was me forcing you through a portal with me. I wasn't hurt because I used my blood. I should have used your blood insted..."
"No you shouldn't, you would have been hurt" Tonks said.
"No I wouldn't, let me quote: 'One of the main advantages of a rune master is the nullifying field around him. It nullifies all advanced rune magic around him that he doesn't know of or doesn't agree to. This means that runes cannot harm him. It also means that he cannot be harmed by runes even in a situation where anyone else would die.' So you see Tonks I wouldn't be hurt."
"Where did you quote that from?" Tonks asked.
"The rune master book just came with an owl yesterday." Harry explained.
"Oh, you realise what this means. I mean if you are un-affected by wards, you could apparate into Hogwarts if you wanted to." Tonks said.
"Well I cannot apparate, but I can use portals." Harry said.
"What are those portals anyway?" Tonks asked.
"They are a magical form of transportation not unlike a portkey. There are three kinds of them, the easiest is the amulet portal which takes you from point A to point B just like a portkey. Well except the blackhole which swallows you when you use it." Harry said.
"What do you mean blackhole?" Tonks asked.
"Well lets just say that our exit from the alley was much more dramatic than planned." Harry said.
"Oh?" asked Tonks.
"Yes, but back to portals. There is the platform portal which is a ward circle with transportation runes in it. It lets you choose an exit point on another circle. I tried and found out there are a few active portals in Britain. There are two in the Ministry of Magic, one in Department of Mystery's and one in the entrance hall, Then there are three in Hogwarts and of course Stonehenge." Harry explained
"Three in Hog... wait Stonehenge"Tonks said
"Yes it seems that it was an international transportation centre for Britain. I checked it out there are faint traces of rune magic on the stones there. Some of the bigger stones even have Gateway portal runes on them. As for Hogwarts there is one in the entrance hall, one in the Ravenclaw common room, or I assumed that, everything was in blue and bronze and books all over the place, she was a rune master... er mistress, but then there was one in the Chamber of Secrets. The weird thing is that it is connected only to Ravenclaws portal which makes you wonder, then it gives you a bad mental image." Harry shuddered at the thought.
"You said three so I expect that the gateway portal is the last?" Tonks asked.
"Yes, the gateway portal is the last, it makes a door through space so if you walk through you appear somewhere else and to you it just seemed you walked through a door." Harry said
Harry looked her over, it must have been her natrual look. She was a little taller than him, with dark brown hair which reached right past her shoulders, and the Black family grey eyes.
"Tonks is this your natrual look" Harry asked.
"No Harry, no people are born with pink hair" Tonks stated.
Harry reached and took a lock of her hair and showed her.
"But your hair isn't pink." he informed her.
"It isn't?" she asked "Oh I feel so embarrassed."
"This form isn't anything to be embarrassed over, it's beautiful" he said but realised what he just said and started apologise "sorry... but um..."
"Its alright" Tonks said.
Harry was looking at her 'at least I wasn't lying to her, she is beautiful' he thought 'and when the wind blows in her hair it reflects the sunlight'
They looked in each others eyes and leaned closer Tonks parted her lips a little and asked "Where the hell is that wind coming from? The window is closed."
The wind got more intense and Harry noticed Tonks staring over his shoulder. A little annoyed that Tonks wasn't paying any attention to him he looked backa nd saw the egg he had made hanging a metre in the air and had a little tornado around it. A crack appeared and emitted a sound that was a mix between a birds screech and a wind blowing through leaves. It was so loud that Harry didn't even hear Tonks say "Damn I thought it would be a phoenix."
A.N. First of all let me apologize for the long wait i usualy write on weekends but the last one was stolen from me plus i had an anoying plotbunny bouching around in my head.
Thanks for all the reviews i wouldn't have belived it when i started how many i got,
to:
Phoenix-Of-Hogwarts: you'll have to find me first.
to: every one who judge my spelling and gramar: you think this is bad you should see my Icelandic... or Danish shudder
Great thanks to my beta: Godfric Potter
The next chapter will mainly be a quote from Harry's pet book about his new pet, maybe some things from the order and his friends but not much more.
Thanks once again
