Harry sighed as he made his way towards the roof. It seemed as though it were to be dawn as the sky had just begun to show the faintest signs of light. He sadly looked on, buildings and more buildings. If you listened you could hear the faint sound of someone getting mugged. Or perhaps the police sirens and yelling voices. Or maybe if you listened hard enough you could hear the blow of a gunshot ripping through the air. But Harry heard none of this, instead he was lost in his own thoughts, clutching the letter Vildava had given him. What did it say? Should he open it? Perhaps, she wanted to tell him personally…
"A penny for your thoughts?"
"I think they're worth more than that." Harry said smirking. A soft chuckle escaped her mouth, "Two pennies then"
Harry rolled his eyes, "You wish, Selena"
"Ah… Harry, you break my heart! How could you? You know that if someone else knows what I wish for, then it WON'T come true!" Selena said in mock anger. Harry smirked, and decided to play along.
"Oh, my dear Selena, please forgive me! But it seems as though your wish is written all over your face"
"So it that why people keep looking at me? I thought it was my dashing looks." She continued with mock hurt. She ran her slim fingers through her brown hair with forest green streaks. Harry simply laughed, as did she.
"When you say 'dashing' do you mean it in a good way, or a bad way?" Harry said with pretend confusion. Selena whacked him playfully. And soon they found themselves bursting with laughter among the floor… of course the tickle fight they had, had an affective effect. (A/N: Keep repeating the same words, don't I)
"So what do you think about the magic world?" She asked questionly. Harry shrugged, "Sounds pretty cool, I was making some fire during the battle… burnt them all right"
Selena's eyes widened, "You're an elemental then!" She explained with a grin.
Harry raised a brow, "And what's that suppose to mean"
"You can control an element, either fire, water, ice, earth, air, lightning, darkness, blood, light… something along those lines." She said.
"Oh, can you do it?" Harry asked. Selena nodded, "Yup, I was reading a book on it and I kinda tried it out…" Her voice trailed off as a vine slowly grew from the ground and up the building.
Harry blinked still trying to take it in, "Cool." He concentrated and picture a flame in his hand… moments later… it was there. Oddly, it did not burn him but provided lighting and warmth.
Selena smirked, "Think we're wizards too"
"Well… if you're a wizard… that'd be just weird…" Harry said slyly. She rolled her eyes, "Ah shut up, Ry"
"That's a stupid nickname." Harry whined. "Ok, how 'bout Satan? Certainly describes you…" Selena snickered. Harry glared.
"I think I'll go with Ry if that's the case, Ena"
"Hey! That makes no sense! Why not Lena? Or Sel? Why Ena?" She pouted.
"Would you like me to call you Sel?" Harry asked raising an eyebrow. She shook her head and he laughed.
"Ah shut up"
Another laugh.
"Why you litte"
Laugh.
"Grrrrrrrrr"
Laugh.
"Y"
Laugh.
"Hey! Sto"
Laugh.
"GOD DAMN IT! SHUT UP YOU IMBECILE!" She screamed. Her voice echoed throughout the street, Harry's smirk widened.
"Fine"
"Finally"
Laugh.
Selena whacked him, muttering about no good prats. More laughing came.
"Having fun?" A cool voice asked, slightly amused. The two jumped, and Vildava scolded them for not being on guard, then again she probably would've scolded herself if they had caught her sneaking up on them… Not that Vildava sneaks up on people… "Seeing if people are paying attention" is how she says it anyways…
"Oh, hello, Vildava." He bowed quickly and Selena did the same.
"Yes, well I wanted to explain… things to you… Perhaps, privately?" Vildava's eyebrows quirked.
Harry shook his head, "Nope, Selena gets to hear. She can be co-leader when I'm leader, so she should know too." Selena blinked slightly, and Vildava shrugged.
"Alright then, come. We need someplace where no one can overhear us." Vildava explained, she led the duo down the stairs, and down another set of stairs, and even more down, Harry didn't know were it would end. They entered a small cozy room. She motioned for them to sit.
"Now, Harry. You're a wizard." Harry blinked slightly, his suspicions were confirmed, "When you were a baby, 1 year old, The Dark Lord Voldemort AKA Tom Riddle had risen to power. He killed your parents, and then tried to kill you. So now you're super famous, and called the boy-who-lived, saviour of the wizarding world cuz you 'killed' Voldemort. I did some extra research and it seems the old manipulating coot of a headmaster, Dumbledore, had some how, illegally too, taken you and put you with that shit called the Dursleys." Harry's eyes widened, his mouth dropped open. "Damn"
Ten Minutes of Gawking Later. Harry and Selena regained their composure. "Now, I have down some extensive research on your bloodline. Mostly because I was bored, but surely perhaps I could find a reason to why the killing curse, Avada Kedrava, backfired. Oh, I did ask Dumbledore, he says it was your mother's "love" for you. And yet, didn't other mothers die protecting their children? But why not their children living? Because they didn't. I have people in the Ministry of course, allies… Unspeakables, and let's just say one was able to give me some information. There is of course a Hall of Prophets, or something along those lines. There's a prophet of you and the "Dark Lord.
"Now, you see, I think other people know of this prophet, and I think Dumbledore might be just the person. He won't tell you the prophet. Most likely a fake one, you will notice, if he uses a pensive, the people would look the same age or only a year or two younger than they are today, it's an act, that really happened within memory, but that does not mean it's true. I have talked with many bartenders, for they are most likely to hear prophecies, they have in the past. However, one bartender heard it…
"Who represents Salazar? The Dark Lord.
Who represents Godric? The Light Lord.
Who represents Hegla? The Law Lord.
Who represents Rowena? The Grey Lord.
The Dark Lord is antagonist.
The Light Lord is manipulative.
The Law Lord is corrupt.
The Grey Lord is savior.
The Dark Lord will mark the Grey Lord.
The Light Lord will try to make him his.
The Law Lord will try to ally himself with the New Lord.
The Grey Lord has a choice.
Will he be a pawn of the Dark?
Will he be a pawn of the Light?
Will he be a pawn of the Law?
Or will he lead his own side to victory?"
Harry looked thoughtful for a moment, "The Dark Lord is Voldemort. The Light Lord is Dumbledore. And the Law Lord is… the Minister of Magic perhaps? And then I'm the Grey Lord, aren't I? I'm the 'savior' of the magic world. And the last part, 'Or will he lead his own side to victory?' it sounds as though the Grey Lord has his own followers. A large amount of them… Obviously, the Dark Lord is the antagonist, being that if there was no Dark Lord, there would be no war. Well, the Light Lord, sounds like Dumbledore from what you've said, naturally he'd turn be against Voldemort and make me his golden boy. The Law Lord, whom I'm assuming is a corrupt minister of magic, will want my fame to make him look good"
Vildava nodded, "Yes, the new minister of magic is Cornelius Fudge, he's the new minister and is currently eating out of the palm of Dumbledore's hands. From what I've heard, he was a Hufflepuff, and from talking to him he seems that way. I think the power will corrupt him, and he may turn against Dumbledore. And perhaps yourself if you're not careful. Although he is not the most powerful magical wise, he is a deadly enemy and is known to have ruined many reputations before. I advise you not to underestimate him.
"Dumbledore takes on the whole grandfatherly image, he is known for his defeat of the Dark Lord Grindlewall, and as Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Supreme Mugwart, blah blah blah. He himself was a Gryffindor, and is very very powerful although he's old. Don't underestimate him either, he may act crazy but he's pretty smart. Dumbledork has a large influence on the students of Hogwarts, and people outside of Hogwarts. Except the Slytherins of course, some of the Ravenclaws, and the neutral families. People even wanted him to be minister.
"Lord Voldemort is even more powerful than Dumbledore, the only reason Dumbledore isn't dead is because Voldemort "fears" him, and Dumbledore is much older, having a larger amount of knowledge at his disposal. Voldemort is so feared people refer to him as "You-Know-Who" or "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named", quite stupid considering Voldemort isn't his real name. Tom Riddle is. Anyways, his followers are called Death Eaters; they wear white masks and are usually pureblood, because Tommy Boy wants to rid the world of muggles and 'mud bloods' as well as half bloods I believe.
"He of course, naturally is a half blood hypocrite. Oh, a muggle is a nonmagical person, and a mud blood or muggleborn is a child of a muggle, and a half blood as the blood of a pureblood and muggle or muggleborn. Riddle is the Heir of Slytherin, his mother being a squid, which is a person born to purebloods without magic, married a muggle, who then dumped her after she had a child. His mother died, and he was sent to an orphanage, later in his teenage years he killed his father and grandparents"
Harry and Selena blinked. "Who's Salazar, Godric, Rowena, Helga, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw?" Selena asked confused.
"The Four Founders of Hogwarts. Salazar Slytherin, Godric Gryffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Helga Hufflepuff. They where very powerful witches in wizards in medieval times. The four houses are named after their last names, Slytherin is the house for the sly and cunning, to other houses, known as evil bastards, although they aren't… Well not all of them, Voldemort certainly was… Gryffindor is the noble, brave house; they're also pretty stupid and arrogant. Ravenclaw, the house I'm in, is for the smart, clever people, we're looked upon as 'bookworms', Hufflepuff is for the loyal and hardworking, however other people think their wimps who are just the leftovers with nowhere else to go"
Harry nodded, "Are you allowed to use magic outside of school"
"No, the degree of Underage Sorcery prevents that… only until I'm 17 am I legally allowed to use magic outside of school"
"We'll ally ourselves with the Ministry… for now. We'll turn everyone against Dumbledore, by using the press. Fudge will be our pawn, and I shan't be his. We will make his influence politically stronger, but we'll keep any information such of blackmail until it comes in handy. We will prepare ourselves for the return of Tom Riddle. By using the Ministry, I can use my fame so that we are able to use magic outside of school"
Vildava nodded, "Alright then. If you don't want to reveal yourself now, I think I can get some… stuff of the black market. Now we have somethings concerning the Silver Clan, I'm sure you've heard the legends. We do have a lot of the blood. A large amount. You will receive the Leader's blood. The strongest blood. It will give you knowledge of the clan. And it will turn you. There are many prophecies made by the Silver Clan, one said they would return again, in the lead, the Grey Lord if he chose so. For a great war was to come deciding the fate of the world. You. I believe. The reason why people don't pass the test, because the only people that do, are the people chosen by the Silver People. The people they have chosen to be their successors. I think this is the reason why you did not die at the hand of the killing curse, because the Leader of the Silver People had chosen you. "I think there are several magic blocks on your magic, many by Dumbledore, and a few by other wizards. I can't break all of them, the blood will. If you chose, we all will receive the blood, I advise you to make sure all are loyal to your cause even if that means kicking people out of the clan. For each with the blood will become almost immortal, yet they still can be killed, natural causes won't. Our magic will increase, and those who are Muggles will be even more able to use magic. We will become smarter, stronger, faster, and more in tune with magic. We may look very different as well. Although I'm sure there is a way to conceal that." Vildava explained.
"And how do you know this?" Harry asked.
"All leaders have the knowledge past down. You will receive it too, and more knowledge"
"Do the co-leaders get anything out of it?" Selena asked grinning impishly.
"Yes, you'd be the second in command, you receive the second in command's blood"
Selena grinned, "Cool… Do we get wings"
Vildava led them to another room, it was full of many bottles of potions. "Drink this. It will tell us what powers you have so far and what you're good at." She handed them both a potion that was a murky green color. Harry gulped the disgusting liquid down. Selena did the same with a look of distaste on her face, she faked gagged. Words started being written on a piece of paper.
The three stared at the pieces of paper, they contained many arts of which they could master. (A/N Yes, i took it out because is was.. arggh)
"Well, naturally, the Silver People seem to have already gifted you with such things, they will become more active once you receive the blood and the blocks on the magic are broken. It is given to at birth so that the transfer of magic doesn't kill you when you're older. Some people need to receive the blood before they show any signs of magic.
"Of course, with the blood we won't be inviable, we are just as killable as any one else, without a leader our society wouldn't function correctly. And of course, we would all receive a true name. Any one who found out what our true name is, could control us, tell us to kill ourselves, anything really"
"You will be trained in all these subjects, and more. I'm sure you will learn fast, even more so if you use the blood, since you will get knowledge from the Silver People about spells, magic, laws, customs, rituals, ect. We have three years to train you, since when you're 11 you'll be going to Hogwarts, unless you don't want to of course." Vildava continued.
"I'll take the blood." Harry said quietly. Selena agreed to do the same.
"Very well. I'll bring you to Gringotts the wizarding bank so we can get control of your finances afterwards." Vildava handed the two different vials of silver blood.
"Drink it." She instructed, "It's the blood." The two gulped down the blood.
A bright light filled the room.
dun dun dun?
I may continue... And I would like to apologize for previous offensive chapters xD.
