When Vampire Hunters Attack
A/N: Wow, it's been awhile since I have updated, sorry people! School, you know. Um, thank you reviewers and I need some ideas so if people will please assist. I also need beta readers for my stories if anyone would like to apply for that job lmao.
Harry was working on the potion by himself today. Ron got a nasty bite from a werewolf the other night and was lying in bed pretty much sick. It wasn't going to kill him because the werewolf was in his demi-form but it made him very ill. Severus couldn't help because he had to teach, he had already taken a few weeks off and he couldn't afford anymore. Spike had to train someone and his parents were getting back to the swing of things and were beginning to rule slowly.
So yes, Harry was all alone in his room, with nothing to occupy his time but a smoking cauldron and dust particles floating around in the air. He added a few ingredients and leaned backward on his chair.
Ron walked gingerly into the room. Harry looked up at him. "What are you doing out of bed you?" he said and helped him into a chair.
"I was bored." he replied softly his eyes focusing and un-focusing, as if he were very tired.
"You look shorter." Harry commented.
"I think de-agement is a part of the side-effects," Ron said, "I'll probably be tall again once I'm better. If I ever get better that is."
"I'm sure you will buddy. You should be resting though."
"Just because I look younger doesn't mean you can call me buddy." Ron commented.
"Oh, but you're so little!"
Ron laughed a little and then yawned. "Where's Bill?"
"Back in Egypt. He should be back in a few days though." Ron nodded. "Is anything else bothering you Ron?"
"No, I'm good."
Harry looked at him and sighed. "Is it Hermione?"
"She doesn't want me anymore." Ron said quietly.
"What? Why?"
"We had a fight when she came to visit. I've been throwing up ever since she decided to break up with me."
"Well depression makes you sicker with werewolf bites. But I don't know why she would break up with you." Harry said.
"It's because I'm a vampire Harry, it's not that hard to figure out. She doesn't want me because I am not with the living anymore. She was cheating on me with Viktor anyway. And he's a vampire hunter."
"How did you figure out that Hermione was cheating on you?" Harry was very shocked at that point and was stammering and slurring his words.
"I caught her cheating on me a few months ago. I came to visit and when I was about to walk in I saw Hermione and him kissing on the sofa. I've just been humoring myself by staying with her. I should've left her right then and there, but I couldn't."
Harry swallowed very hard. "Ron, it's going to be okay. You know that right?" he said.
"Yeah, give me a few days, I'll forget about her in no time."
"Do you want me to talk to her?" Harry asked.
"I'm not sure. You can if you want though." Ron yawned again. Then he grabbed onto his stomach. "Excuse me." he said.
"Bathroom's right through those doors." Ron nodded and ran through the doors.
Harry sighed and returned to his work. His thoughts were very blurred. Why would Hermione care that Ron was a vampire? Why? Ron was just as gracious as ever. He never hurt her, never yelled at her. They seemed so happy together.
And then there was Viktor Krum. He was famous. He could be the one who supports her and makes sure they aren't financially in stress. 'Ron basically bought the house for them then didn't he?' Harry thought.
"No," Ron said as he was walking back in, "Herm moved out. She's living with her parents for awhile. And then when the time comes, she's going to Viktor's house where she could live happily ever after screwing him in their ridiculously enormous bedroom quarters."
Harry frowned but didn't say anything. He looked down at the cauldron. It was bubbling for once. Harry made a few notes and looked back up at Ron. "I think I'm going to go and talk to Herm. I'll be back in a bit." Harry said. He then let the cauldron settle and walked out.
He appeared at Hermione's parents' house. He looked around. "Nice neighborhood." he murmured, then knocked on the door.
Her mother answered the door. She looked exactly like Hermione except for her eyes. Mrs. Granger's eyes were grey. "Hello," she said, "Who are you?"
Harry laughed a little. "I'm Harry Potter, a friend of Herm's. Is she here by chance?" he replied easily.
"Yes, why don't you come in?" she stepped aside to let Harry in.
"Thank you." They walked into the living room. She looked at Harry. "Take a seat and I'll go get her." she said and walked up the steps.
"Mom, me and Viktor wanted to be alone for awhile." Harry heard coming from Hermione. How that disgusted him.
"But you have a guest." Her mother said, Harry had decided to listen in on their conversation.
"Is it Ron? Because if it is tell him to go away."
"No honey, it's Harry."
"Oh. Viktor, stay here a moment will you?"
Soon enough Hermione showed up in the living room, wearing only shorts and a half shirt. "Harry," she said, "what a nice surprise. Is everything alright?"
"Um," Harry replied looking around, "no actually. Why did you leave Ron?"
Hermione sighed gently. She knew it was coming she was just hoping it wouldn't but it did all the same. "Well, it was just all getting too weird you know?" she said.
Harry looked a little confused. "No. Ron can only half pass the gene if you guys had children. You both seemed so happy together. Why does something like him becoming a vamp-"
"Don't say that word!" Hermione cried. She looked very fearful. "Viktor hunts them. Once he hears that word he'll come rushing down the steps."
Harry's cheeks reddened (A/N: I don't know how it's possible either!). He was very angry with Hermione at the moment. "You know what? I think it was a mistake coming here. You know what, have fun with your vampire hunting Quidditch star. I'll be tending to Ron."
"What's wrong with him?"
Harry cracked a grim smile. "He was bitten by a werewolf a few days ago. He's very sick. And just because you broke up with him he's puking a lot. He's depressed, really depressed. Good job messing things up."
A tear rolled down Hermione's cheek. "My Ronnie's sick?"
"Your Ronnie? YOUR RONNIE! What is you problem? You leave him because he is a fucking vampire and now all of a sudden he's your Ronnie? Oh I am SO fed up with you!"
Viktor ran down the steps. "Honey, I felt you vere upset is everything all righ- oh, hiya Harry, how are you?" Viktor said.
Harry's eyes narrowed. "Just peachy. I'm leaving."
"Oh but why?" Viktor asked. Harry had turned around. Viktor grabbed his shoulders. There was a flask of werewolf venom as a necklace on Viktor. It must have been doused in it as well because as soon as it touched Harry, he hissed and his form immediately changed.
"Damian?" Viktor said in disbelief.
"Ello, Draven, that is what your hunter friends call you, isn't it?" Damian disappeared with a crack!
He appeared at the Caves in the dining hall. Everyone was sitting at their tables eating their fill of whatever they desired when he showed up. They all stopped what they were doing and stood up and bowed.
"Now is not the time to bow! Draven found me today. He touched me! He's bound to know where This place is! Everybody get to work and man your stations, hurry!" Damian shouted.
James and Lily came up to him. "Dame, are you alright?" his mother asked, wrapping her arms around him.
"Just fine, I got burned a little from werewolf venom. Father, can you contact Nat for me, and tell him to gather reinforcements, we're going to need it."
"Of course Son." James ran off.
"I'm going to take the children somewhere safe. I'll be back though." Damian said.
"Hurry back." Lily called as her son walked away.
'So it begins.' Damian thought as he gathered the children.
