Chapter 9: Hogwarts attacks and the Golden Trio

Harry slept peacefully that night thinking about Emily and Hermione being his girlfriends. He didn't care what other people thought. Harry showered and got dressed and met Emily in the common room. They both walked hand in hand to the Gryffindor portrait and waited for Hermione who came a few minutes later and Harry walked with two pretty girls holding his hands to the Great Hall. The few people who were there including several teachers were dumbstruck as they walked in and sat at the Ravenclaw table. The few students who were there blinked and rubbed their eyes to make sure it was real. They are breakfast and talked amongst themselves.

'Harry you better read this.' He as the owl dropped her copy of the Daily Prophet.

Taking the paper Harry scowled and read:

Harry Potter the boy-who-lived

It was discovered yesterday that Harry Potter is a parseltongue and is now considered in league with He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named.

When Harry read this the copy that he was holding went up in smoke. 'I think I need to send an owl.' He said standing up with Hermione and Emily.

They walked to the Owlery and exchanged a few words now and then. They got to Owlery and Harry wrote a message for Griphook.

Griphook

I hope this letter finds you well. I have a favor to ask of you, I need you to buy a large controlling piece in the Daily Prophet. I would like you to send me a ledger of all my accounts and assets.

Harry Potter

'Twilight.' Harry called and the jet black owl came flying to him. Landing on his shoulder nipped his ear in affection and held out her leg to show a letter attached. Removing it and attaching the Gringott's letter, Harry gave her an owl treat and she flew through the window.

'It's from Tonks. Do you think it's about Black?' Harry asked.

'Wait do you mean Sirius Black?' Hermione asked. 'The man in Azkaban.'

'Yes he's my godfather and he's innocent.' Harry then began explaining to Hermione how he was framed.

'So now you're trying to free him?' she asked.

'Yes, now let's see what this letters about.' He said opening it.

Harry

I got the letter to Sirius and he seemed happy about hearing from you but I couldn't tell. Azkaban is guarded by Dementor's and they suck all the happiness out of you. He told me about the escape you said in the letter and I think he should go for it. I've missed my cousin and I hope this works Harry.

Thanks for giving me and Sirius hope.

Love Tonks

'She got it to him.' Harry said happily.

'Who got what?' Hermione asked.

Harry began explaining what Dumbledore did to his life. Hermione gasped at all the right places.

'How could Dumbledore do that to you?' she said pulling him into a hug tears threatening to fall.

Hugging her back he said. 'It's alright Hermione, I'm going to make him pay and set things right. You'll come visit us during the summer won't you?' he asked her lifting the mood.

'Yes of course I will Harry.' She said pulling away and looking into his deep green eyes.

Hermione leaned lightly closer and Harry got the message. Both leaned closer and when their lips met Emily smiled. She couldn't put it into words but she was happy that the three of them were together. They stayed like that for a few more precious seconds before breaking apart. They put their forheads against the others and looked into their eyes.

'We should get to class.' Hermione said breaking the silence and slowly standing up with Harry.

'Sure.' He said pulling away and holding both the girls hands.

'Harry I've been wondering what did you do to Malfoy on Halloween.' Emily said.

'Oh you know, I hung him above one of the staircases for a couple of hours and he fell with a right thud.' Harry explained to them.

Hermione looked slightly appalled but thankfully said nothing on the subject. They went to their classes and they passed by quick enough. Harry, Emily and Hermione were walking hand in hand through the fourth floor corridor to go to the Library when they saw two prone figures lying on the ground. Running to them and dropping to their knees they saw that it was Colin Creevey and a fourth year they didn't know. Harry quickly called Minerva mentally and she appeared a few moments later.

'Dear Merlin, what happened here?' she asked bending down.

'We don't know Professor. We came down from our classes on our way to the library and found them like this.' Hermione told her.

'Let's take them to the Hospital Wing for now.' McGonagall said after a moment.

Harry stood up and conjured two stretchers and levitated them towards the Hospital Wing and on the way they told their Professor what they knew.

'You three say that it is a basilisk attacking the students.' McGonagall said. 'It sounds absurd but falls into place but how is it moving around the castle without anyone noticing it?' she asked.

'We don't know Professor but we know that it's someone who hates Muggleborns.' Emily said.

'I think it would be best if you three went to your common rooms and don't say a word about this to anyone.' She said before closing the Hospital Wing doors.

Harry and the Emily dropped Hermione off at her dormitory and went to their own. Harry went into his dormitory and noticed a large barn owl sitting on his bed with a thick roll of parchment attached to its leg. Rolling it off Harry read the smaller one first:

MR Potter

He showed Emily and Hermione the next morning. Over the next two months Harry, Emily and Hermione scoured every book in the Library and in Harry's multiple libraries. Most of the student decided to leave for the Christmas holidays but the trio stayed to search.

'I'm sure it's Malfoy.' Hermione said snapping closed a large book.

'It's not him Hermione. I looked at his mind, surprised I even found it, he doesn't know a thing.' Harry said calmly.

'How has your training in dueling going?' Emily asked out of curiosity.

'It getting a lot better. I can beat Flitwick a couple of times but I don't have proper spell combinations necessary to win a fully fledged duel.' He said to her looked through the Potter directory.

'Well that's good to hear Harry.' Hermione said opening her book again.

'I think we should take a break and see Hagrid before curfew.' Harry said gently closing the book.

'You're right.' Emily said. 'I would use some fresh air.' She said getting up and walking over to Harry.

'Well I might as well come along. I wouldn't want to be alone anyway.' She said putting her book aside and following Harry and Emily out of the trunk. His libraries had been searched and he was given full permission to use it as he pleased.

It was a long walk to Hagrid's hut. They were knee deep in snow and were cold to their bones. They knocked on the door and heard fang barking and Hagrid trying to hold him back, a full minute later the door was opened to reveal Hagrid wearing his moleskin coat. 'Come in you three.' He said standing to the side to let them in.

They talked idly for a few minutes about the attacks and such when they heard a knock on the door. Hagrid looked at the three of them and with a nod from Harry he opened the door. Standing there was Dumbledore and the Minister of Magic.

'Good evening Hagrid and you three. Hagrid I am sorry but I bring bad news.' Fudge stepped into the doorway with Dumbledore behind him. 'Hagrid do to the attacks we have to remove you from your teaching post and can't allow you onto Hogwarts grounds.'

'What no. Where ye goin te take me?' Hagrid asked frantically.

'I'm sorry Hagrid but we have no choice the Wizengomet has decided and we have to take you to Azkaban.' Fudge said.

Hagrid's face flashed anger, then acceptance and the despair in the period of a second. He slowly got a bag and packed a few things before turning back to face the minister. 'I'm ready.' He said gruffly.

Just then there was another knock on Hagrid's door and Dumbledore answered it. 'Ah Lucious what brings you here?' Dumbledore asked as the man walked through the door.

'Dumbledore I am afraid that the board of directors has deemed you unfit to fulfill your role as headmaster and have temporarily suspended you from service.' The man said pulling a roll of parchment out of his pocket and handed it to Dumbledore.

He unrolled the parchment and read it for several minutes and sighed. Harry thought about what would happen if Dumbledore was forced to leave and said standing up. 'I suspend the motion to remove Dumbledore as headmaster and revoke the board's decision.'

'You can do no such thing boy.' Lucious spat.

'Yes I can, I am the heir and descendant of the founders four of Hogwarts.' Saying the houses names in quick succession Harry held up his left hand to show the founders rings.

Lucious opened his mouth and closed it again several times making no sound. He slowly walked to the door and left without another word.

Dumbledore turned to Harry and said. 'Thank you for doing that Harry but I was not aware that you had taken up your lineage.'

'Potter.' Harry mumbled and three rings disappeared and the remaining one turned in the Potter lineage. 'Yes well sir I have as well as several others.' Harry said coldly. 'Now if you'll excuse us sir we must get back to our common room.' The three bid their goodbyes to Fudge and Hagrid and walked back to the castle.

On the way there Twilight came and landed on Harry's shoulder. Harry absentmindedly stroked his owls feathers while he relieved her of the letter. She quickly fluttered away and Harry unrolled the letter and nearly face planted when he saw who it was from. Quickly showing his girlfriends the letter read:

Harry

I am sorry i couldn't write sooner but you were right, I slipped through the bars and past the dementor's. I have made it to little Winging in Surrey. I want you to know how much I have missed you and want to make up for lost time. If you could provide me with a place to stay I would be very grateful but if you can't I can survive on my own. The ministry is already looking for me but they haven't made my disappearance public yet so I'll be safe

You're loving Godfather

Sirius

'He did it.' Harry whispered. 'He broke out.' Not daring to believe it.

'Harry its true, he's free. You should write to my parents and see if they'll let him stay.' She said slightly pulling him to the Owlery.

Harry conjured some parchment and a quill and began writing.

Dear Amelia and John

Things here at Hogwarts are fine and we're learning lots of new things we learnt during the summer. I also have a massive favor to ask of you two. My Godfather escaped Azkaban where he was unjustly put, he is completely trustworthy. I can understand if you don't want to but can he please stay with you until we come back from Hogwarts.

Please think about it before you decide.

Love Harry and Emily.

He quickly rolled up the parchment and sent Twilight off on another message and said turning to Hermione and Emily. 'I still can't believe it.' He was grinning ear to ear.

Emily and Hermione moved and both pulled him into a hug filled with love. They spent some time just standing there embracing each other. The next day was the first Quidditch match when everyone came back to school.

Waking up Harry woke up early and got dressed in his Quidditch uniform after showering and waited for Emily to come down. She came running down the stairs and almost crashed into Harry. She was wearing a deep blue sweater and a lighter blue scarf while holding a folded up banner under her arm. Smiling he pulled her into a hug and they made their way to the Great Hall and met up with Hermione who was dressed similarly to Emily. They ate breakfast and made their way to the field with the rest of the team, Harry gave Hermione a hug and a short but heartfelt kiss and they split ways at the locker room.

'Alright team, we have perfect conditions to play against Slytherin. I heard they got a new seeker but we don't know who it is. Their team also has new brooms so we have to play our very best. Harry, Morris and Smith keep your formation tight and keep position of that Quaffle. Beaters hammer their chasers and block their passes. Emily you need to find the snitch and catch it as quickly as possible. Alright team, WHO ARE WE?' Megan said giving her usual pep talk.

'RAVENCLAW.' The team yelled.

'NOW LET'S GET OUR THERE AND SHOW THE ALMIGHTY QUIDDITCH GODS THAT WE ARE WORTHY.' She yelled with all her might and picked up her broom and moved to the entrance to the pitch.

'Welcome to the first Quidditch match of the season with Ravenclaw against Slytherin. Here comes Ravenclaw. McGlaggen, Flemtur, Chang, Morris, Smith, Potter and Evans. Potter has recently gotten himself into a three way relationship and a question did anyone see how he did it?' Lee Jordan announced just as McGonagall yelled at him.

'Now I want a good clean game.' Madam Hooch said. 'Now captains shake hands.'

She kicked the crate and the four balls shot into the air. Harry instantly grabbed the Quaffle and flew to the Slytherin posts while Emily shot straight up into the air scanning the field for the snitch. She noticed Malfoy out of the corner of her eye and assumed he was the new seeker.

'Ravenclaw's chasers score four goals in quick succession. Ravenclaw are back in possession.' Lee announced.

Scanning the pitch for the snitch she saw Harry was being chased by a bludger that never went for another player. Harry was constantly dodging said bludger and having a hard time getting the quaffle. After he scored again Harry signaled for Megan to call a time out.

'What's wrong Harry?' she asked as she and the rest of the team landed by him.

'The bludger only going after me, and I'm having a hard time dealing with it.' He told her. 'Either we find out what's wrong with it or I destroy it if it becomes too much of a pest.'

She considered carefully. 'Harry we can't request an inquiry or we forfeit. Try to deal with it as long as you can and only destroy it if it becomes too much of a problem.'

And with that they were back into the air. The score was 100 to 60 in favor of Ravenclaw when Emily spotter the snitch. She leaned down on her broom as close as possible and shot off like a bullet. Malfoy went after he but was too late as she grabbed the snitch the split second from between the other bludger and a beaters bat. When she looked around she saw Harry get hit on his arm by the rogue bludger and fell off his broom. Everyone in the stands got to their feet and Emily raced towards Harry.

'Bloody Hell.' Harry swore as he turned onto his back knowing he had a broken arm. He saw the bludger come straight towards him. He held his hands out in front of him and stopped the black ball 2 meters from himself. He focused on the ball and found elf magic, his anger flaring at Dobby the ball exploded in a massive ball of fire.

'Harry, are you okay?' Emily said as she landed next to him.

'Yes but I think I've got a broken arm.' He replied as he sat up and the teachers ran towards him.

Lockhart bent down and pulled out his wand. 'Don't worry Harry I know the right spell for the job.' He was about mess up Harry's arm further before said boy banished the teacher halfway across the field.

Harry felt his body become energized with magic and a glowing blue aura cover his entire body. He floated several inches into the arm and landed on his feet as the glow faded. Emily gasped as she saw he now had long black hair all the way down to the small of his back, a small goatee and his arm was healed.

'Harry Potter are you alright?' A concerned McGonagall said walking up to him.

'Yes ma'am, just a little tingly though. But other than that I'm good.' He replied to her.

By this time Hermione reached him. 'Bloody hell Harry look at your hair.' She said.

Confused Harry reached at the back of his head and pulled a long bunch of hair over his shoulder. Staring at it he looked amazed and bewildered. He felt his chin and felt his goatee. Not wanting to face anyone else yet he signaled to Emily and pulled Hermione onto his broom and the three of them flew back to the castle.

'How did this happen?' he asked looking at his new features in a full body mirror he conjured inside an empty classroom.

'I think it had something to do with the founders four Harry.' Hermione began. 'You used wandless magic on Lockhart and I think you magic needed a small outlet so it gave you longer hair and facial hair.'

'Well what do you two think?' he asked spinning in a small circle and giving them a show.

They both quickly nodded to each other and said to Harry in unison, 'If you ever cut that hair…..'

'Ok I get it. Oh hey Twilight.' He said as his owl flew in with a letter for him.

Harry

We would be happy to have your Godfather, but he has to behave himself. I heard about the pranks he and your father played while they were at school. We are happy to hear that you are enjoying school and we'd love to see the stuff you learn at Hogwarts. Tell him to come to our address and we'll sort everything else out.

Love Amelia and John

Harry couldn't help but smile at their response. He showed them the letter and both mirrored Harry's grin. He quickly sent a note telling Sirius what to do. 'Well looks like it worked. I will clear his name as well and I'll have to send a letter to the Prophet.' He said and explained how much he now owned.

'Well Harry I think you should make them say he escaped actually mislead them and say he's trying to flee the country.' Hermione suggested.

'That's what I was thinking as well.' Harry replied. 'But I am also going to tell them that's he's an innocent man and that Dumbledore knew the truth and didn't save an innocent man from incarceration.'

'Harry are you sure?' Hermione said gasping.

'Yes, he has influence everywhere and I'm going to take that away from him, and after what he did to me I will have no pity or remorse for him.' Harry replied in a cold voice.

Harry quickly wrote a letter to the Prophet, Sirius and Emily's parents. Sending them off with three different owls the trio left for the Ravenclaw party…. Common room. Harry kept them laughing by changing his features and hair all the way. When they went through the portrait the three of them saw the party was already in full swing. There were tons of food, butterbeer and Firewhisky for the older kids.

'You know we can drink the firewhisky right?' Harry asked Emily.

'We can.' She said her eyes widening slightly.

'Yes, the charm they put on the bowl makes it so only fifth years and up and serve but it also recognizes Lord's and Lady's.' he explained to her.

Half an hour later all three were slightly tipsy when McGonagall came to stop the party and get the trio. Everyone went to their rooms with boo's and aah's while Harry, Emily and Hermione looked confused but followed their Transfiguration teacher nonetheless. After a short walk they entered her office and saw Snape and Flitwick there.

'Please sit.' She said gesturing to chairs and as they sat she continued. 'Harry there has been another double attack.'

Harry sat there slightly shocked but managed to ask her. 'Who?'

'Penelope Clearwater one of your house prefects and Nick the Gryffindor ghost.' Both Emily and Hermione gasped at this. How could anything petrify a ghost?

'Potter we called you here to see if you could find the monster since you can speak parseltongue.' Snape said.

Harry nodded and closed his eyes trying to find the basilisk. He found it on the fourth floor and began mentally speaking with it. 'Why are you petrifying students?'

'Who are you?'

'Harry James Potter heir to Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. Now answer me why have you been petrifying students?'

'My master commands me to. She wishes me to scare all the muggleborns away, petrify them or kill them.'

'I am your rightful master and command you to only petrify them not kill. Try to go against your masters word if possible.'

'Yes Heir of Slytherin.'

'Where is the chamber?'

'Moaning Myrtles bathroom.' The snake said one last time before disappearing.

Opening his eyes he said to the teachers. 'I found it, the person controlling it wanted the muggleborns dead and they've been lucky to only be petrified. I am now the snakes master and if will only petrify and not kill. It's the best I could do.' He said when he stares from the rooms other four occupants.

'Well its better news than what we had, so thank you Harry.' Flitwick squeaked.

'The mandrake solution should be ready after the last Quidditch match, is there anything else that could help us Harry?' McGonagall asked him.

Thinking that he should keep the entrance a secret he replied. 'No ma'am.'

'Then I suggest you three get to bed. I daresay the party has started again.' She told them dismissing them.

When they got back to the common room they saw that she was right, everyone was back in the common room and they were party full out. Grabbing a cup each they got some firewhisky and they went up to the Boys room. Making sure no one was around he stuck the Potter ring into the ring lock and the top flew open. Climbing in after the girls and closing the lid Harry sat on the couch with them.

Taking a sip from his glass he said to them, 'We have to stop this before it gets too far.'

'We know Harry but we don't know where the entrance to the chamber is.' Emily said with a downcast look on her face.

'I never told them because they won't know what to expect.' Hermione chocked on some firewhisky when she heard him say that.

'Why Harry?' Hermione asked eyeing him.

'Because it's likely to be another student doing this and the teachers won't show mercy, especially Snape.' Harry explained to them. 'We need to prepare to take this person down ourselves.'

'Harry are you sure' she asked in an almost pleading voice.

'Yes Emily and I know exactly how to prepare. Potter Grimier.' Harry called and a book shot to his outstretched hand. 'This is the Potter spell book, familial spells passed down from generation to generation. This will be our biggest advantage.' He finished and opened the book.

'Harry its blank.' Hermione said bewildered.

'Only people from the Potter family can read it. So Hermione take out your wand and put it on my ring.' He did and she did as he said. . 'I Harry potter, Lord of the Potter lineage hereby declare Emily Evans the Second Lady of the lineage. So let it be.' When he finished the ring sent ripples across both their bodies as a sign of acceptance just as it had with Emily

'That felt.. great Harry.' Hermione said pulling him into a hug causing him to almost drop his glass.

'You're welcome my Lady.' He said. 'Now let's see what spells there are.' They found and practiced different spells in the Draekon dueling area until four in the morning.

They didn't bother trying to get any sleep so they decided to go shower and meet at the Great Hall. Harry dressed in his school robes with a Potter crest over his right breast instead of the Hogwarts walked down to the Entrance Hall.

'Hey Potter trying out a new look are you?' Malfoy asked sarcastically as he saw Harry in the Entrance Hall.

'Don't test me Malfoy.' Harry said angrily pulling his staff off of his back holster and holding it tight.

'Why is Potter going to cry to his mudblood girlfriends or maybe his mudblood mother?' Draco snarled.

When Draco said this everyone else in the hall knew he crossed the line and they backed up against the wall. A white color was seeping onto the floor around Harry while his hair and eyes turned pure white. Malfoy got a look of fear in his eyes and tried to run but found his body unable to move and the same was found out by Crabbe and Goyle.

Pointing his staff at their heads he cast, 'Abrumpo.' And cut off all of their hair. 'Levicorpus. Tarrentalegra' Harry cast and they hung upside down while laughing uncontrollably. He lifted them further up and stuck their bodies to the wall above the doors to the Great Hall. During the encounter Harry felt the snake tighten slightly on his arm and an earth, fire and air plumes joined the existing water one and grew higher.

'Harry what happened?' Hermione asked as she walked in with Emily.

He explained to them what happened while the whiteness went away from the floor but his eyes and hair stayed white. They went in and had breakfast while a few teachers tried to detach Malfoy and his cronies from the wall but found they couldn't and gave up after half an hour when the three suddenly fell to the floor still laughing.

Everyone heard about this morning's encounter and avoided him all day during classes except for Hermione and Emily. Even Snape knew not to tempt Harry so they day passed without further incident.

The next morning there was a massive uproar in the hall. Harry was reading the Daily Prophet this morning:

Albus Dumbledore fit for Hogwarts?

Recent evidence has been brought to light about Albus Percival O'Brian Dumbledore and Sirius Black.

Sirius Black had escaped from Azkaban last week while Cornelius Fudge had failed to inform the public about this and we are sure there is already a vote of no confidence to have him removed from office. Dumbledore was the person who had cast the fidelous spell on the Potter's and failed to mention that Sirius Orion Black was not the secret keeper but was changed at the last minute to one Peter Pettigrew. There is now a request for Sirius to 'surrender' himself for a trial and a chance to be proven innocent. There is now also a vote to remove Dumbledore from his seat a Chief Warlock at the Wizengomet at the next meeting in a week's time.

Harry folded the paper and went back to his breakfast and conversation with Emily and Hermione while speaking with McGonagall.

'I assume you have read the Prophet this morning Professor.'

'Yes and Harry while we talk like this call me Minerva'

'Minerva, wow that's going to take some getting used to, I also assume you know that it is imperative that I attend that meeting.'

'Yes Harry. We shall get you to that meeting. Albus has too much influence and will use it for his desires, we must take away as much as possible.'

'Thank you Minerva.'

'I am attending that meeting.' Harry whispered to Emily and Hermione.

'Are you sure you'll be allowed Harry?' Hermione asked.

'Yes all five families have seats on the Wizengomet and I intend to use them.' He said eating his eggs and bacon and heard a flutter of wings above him and saw Twilight coming to him with a letter attached to her leg.

Landing on his shoulder he gave her a piece of bacon and untied the letter and read out loud to Hermione and Emily.

Harry

Thank you for asking your foster parents if I could stay here. They are very nice and don't worry I won't be playing any pranks on them but you two are a different matter. I went to Gringott's and got myself some gold and a new wand. The goblins told me something very interesting but we'll talk about that when you get back for the summer. I'll be able to send more owls now and we can get to know each other.

Love you Godfather Sirius.

Harry smiled at this and decided to write a rather long reply later tonight. 'Uh Harry I know this is a little late to ask but where's your snake?' Emily said nervously.

'Don't worry; he's hunting mice in the Forbidden Forest.' He told her rubbing her back in an effort to calm her. 'Besides I told him never to bite anyone ever.'

When she heard this she relaxed and gave him a kiss on the cheek. 'You always know how to make me feel better. The next match is tomorrow we better rest. Come on Hermione.' Emily said standing up and pulling Harry up to his feet.

They went to Harry's library and began finishing their homework. 'Hermione who are you supporting tomorrow, cause you do know its Ravenclaw against Gryffindor right?' Harry asked her.

'I'm going to support my boyfriend and his girlfriend silly.' Hermione said. 'I wouldn't support Ron; he's always being obnoxious, loud, rude and pompous. He has even had the audacity to ask me to spy on your practices.' She told Harry.

'HE DID WHAT!?' Harry yelled standing up and scaring the two girls.

'Harry please don't do anything he's not worth it.' Hermione said standing up and walking next to him.

'Oh I'm not going to do anything; it's his brothers that are.' Harry said walking out of his library.

He pulled out the Marauders map that his Godfather had given to him as a gift from the box in his old vault. He saw that Fred and George were climbing out of the shortcut to HoneyDukes in Hogsmeade. Quickly taking a few shortcuts he learned he made it before they left. 'Fred, George.' He called at them.

Slowly turning around they both broke into similar grins when they saw him. 'Yes Harry.' They said in unison.

'I need you to smack some sense into Ronald.' Harry told them.

'Why would we….' Fred said

'Do that Harry?' George finished.

'Cause that prat asked Hermione to spy on Ravenclaw's practice.' Harry said coldly.

'We'll take care of him Harry.' George said seriously.

'How'd you find us anyway?' Fred asked.

Thinking for a moment before deciding he could rust the twins he pulled out the Marauders Map and they pulled out an exact copy. Sharing a quick laugh they went their separate ways and Harry returned to his library to find the two girls still there, holding hands no less.

'Are you two cheating on me?' he asked sarcastically.

'Harry you're back.' Emily said jumping up and pulling him into a hug.

Over the next two weeks Harry and Emily were put through bone breaking Quidditch practice for their next match against Gryffindor and so came the day of the match and on the way to the hall they found Hermione in tears wearing Ravenclaw scarf and sweater.

Running to her he pulled her into a hug and stayed like that for a few moments before asking her. 'What happened Hermione?'

'It's Ron, I said I- I'm going to support Ravenclaw and he yelled at me and called me a mudblood and a disgrace to Gryffindor.' She said sobbing into his shoulder.

When Harry heard her say this he stiffened and told them wait there. As he walked away Emily pulled Hermione into a hug in an effort to comfort her while Harry pulled out the Marauders map and found Ron in the Gryffindor common room. Walking briskly toward the common rooms portrait it automatically swung open to admit him.

Looking around he saw Ron eating on the couch in front if the fire. 'WEASLEY!' Harry roared.

When he heard this he dropped his plate and everyone turned to see who yelled. Walking to Ron who was now cowering underneath the look of Harry, he lifted him up by the scruff of his collar and threw him out the portrait door and walked out. Everyone rushed to see what was going to happen but did nothing to intervene.

'WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!' Harry said yelling this. 'YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TELL HERMIONE WHO SHE CAN SUPPORT OR NOT AND YOU WILL NEVER ASK HER TO SPY FOR GRYFFINDOR EVER AGAIN. And if I ever hear you calling her a mudblood again you will not live to regret it.' Harry said whispering the last part before stalking off to the Quidditch pitch.

'I am Lee Jordan you're commentator for today's Quidditch match consisting of Ravenclaw vs. Gryffindor and we have brilliant weather for the match.' Lee began announcing.

'Harry where is Emily?' Megan asked him as she was the only one not there.

'I don't know, I left her by the Entrance hall to do something and we I got back she wasn't there.' He explained to her as they walked onto the pitch.

'Attention please.' McGonagall said taking the microphone. 'Te game is cancelled, all students are to return to their dormitories at once.' She said before walking onto the pitch towards Harry. 'Mr Potter I think it would be best you come with me.' She said before walking off to the castle.

'Ma'am is it something to do with Hermione?' Ron asked McGonagall.

'So what now you care about here even though you insulted here this morning.' Harry spat angrily. 'You go to your common room Weasley.' Harry said before following McGonagall again.

Ron stood there stunned before walking to the other Gryffindors with a defeated look on his face. Harry stoned his resolve as he entered the Entrance Hall but when he went into the Hospital Wing his face fell. Lying in two beds were Hermione and Emily petrified.

'We found them like this by the second floor Harry, and that's not all.' McGonagall began telling him in a downtrodden voice. 'There is another message under the first and it reads. The girl has been taken into the chamber where her bones will stay for all eternity. The girl is- Ginny Weasley.'

Standing up and wiping away the few tears that fell down his face and said. 'The entrance to the chamber is in Moaning Myrtles Bathroom. Go there in ten minutes.' He then left the Hospital Wing with his resolve strengthened and made a beeline for the ghost's bathroom.

Entering he looked at the circular taps and whispered in parseltongue, ' Open.' They slowly came apart and the one in front of him slid down into the floor. Standing there for a few seconds he turned into a pitch black basilisk and slid down the hole. Seeing many other pipes branch off from this one he went straight ahead smelling for anyone or anything.

Coming to the end of the tunnel and coiled himself he saw a large wrought iron door with two snake statues on either side of it. Hissing it began to open and he slithered through and saw a large skin about the size of him. Ignoring it he went further on and was greeted by a giant statue of Salazar Slytherin's face and at the bottom of it lay Ginny Weasley. Cautiously making his way over he saw that she was almost as pale as a ghost and held in her hands was a diary. Looking around he saw a boy no older than seventeen standing there.

'Who are you and what have you to her?' he hissed angrily.

'I am Tom Marvolo Riddle and I was a student here, and who are you?' the boy replied looking calm.

Sending out Legilimancy probes at the boy he saw that this was the younger version of Lord Voldemort and hissed but not at the boy. 'Come my faithful pet, aid your master your master Heir of Salazar Slytherin.' And slowly the mouth of the giant statue slid open and out slid a second basilisk.

'You called me master, tell me which is and I shall do your bidding.' It said after regarding Harry with a slight nod.

'How has the fool done this to the girl?'

'He has used the diary to posses her and now he steals her soul for his purpose.'

Tom knew where this was going and quickly summoned the diary before running down a tunnel. 'Bring him to me alive.' Harry commanded it as the snake slithered after its former master.

Turning back to normal Harry ran over to Ginny he cradled her in his arms. 'It was the diary I gave her, how could I be so stupid.' He said quietly to himself.

He sat there for a few moments before he heard a mix of sounds. Standing up he heard Tom cry out in pain, the basilisk hissing and a phoenix song. Turning around he saw Dumbledore's Phoenix flying towards him with the sorting hat in its talons. Above him the bird dropped the hat in Harry's waiting hands and he felt it grow heavy after a few seconds. Looking inside he saw the hilt of four swords and slowly pulled them out one by one and now held all four founders swords. Sliding two of them into make shift scabbards he conjured and held two of them by his sides. Hearing the hissing coming nearer he saw the basilisk slither out of a pipe with Tom hanging onto its mouth by his foot and threw him at Harry's feet.

'Tom Riddle you will not harm anyone ever again.' Harry said before plunging a sword into the boys heart and another into the diary he dropped and watched ink pour out of the whole while Tom's body filled with cracks and holes with light streaming out of them.

The chamber was filled with the boys screams and he exploded in a ball of light. Dropping to his knees next to the young girl he saw her face began to with color. Her eyes opened and while she blinked a few times she caught sight of Harry and immediately choked on her breath.

'Harry I'm sorry it was Tom he made me d-'She began talking frantically before he pulled her into a hug.

'It's ok Ginny. Tom did it and he's gone. All that matters is that you're safe now.' He whispered into her ear. 'Everything is fine.' He finished as he tightened his grip around her.

Pulling away he stood up and slowly pulled her to her feet as well. 'Thank you, what will you do now.' Harry asked the basilisk.

'I will do whatever is your wish master.' It said with what Harry thought was a bow.

'if that is what you want, I want you to protect Hogwarts in its times of need, and extend the tunnels to the edges of Hogwarts and open above ground entrances. Protect those who need it.' Harry ended.

'Yes my lord, I shall see your wishes through to completion.' The snake replied before slithering off down a tunnel.

'Let's go Ginny.' He said as he began walking back down the tunnel from where he came. They walked in silence back to the tunnel before Harry wondered out loud.' How are we going to get back up?'

When he said that they both heard Fawkes let out a shrill note and flew to hover in front of them. 'I think he wants us to grab a hold.' Ginny said.

Putting a tight arm around Ginny's waist he pulled her closer to him and grabbed Fawkes's tail. He immediately felt himself become lighter and Fawkes flew up the tunnel. Harry looked down and saw Ginny blushing as they flew up. It took them a minute before they were standing in the bathroom again and Lockhart standing there with his wand trained on Harry.

Without any hesitation he yelled, 'Obliviate.' Harry threw his free arm up and a white barrier surrounded them and the spell rebounded to his Professor while intensifying with power. The spell knocked the blonde in the chest when the other teachers came in.

'What happened to Gilderoy Harry?' McGonagall asked him.

'Ginny and I came through the pipe and he shot a memory charm at us. I merely reflected it and intensified its power tenfold.' Harry explained while Lockhart incoherently mumbled to himself.

'Well Harry it seems you saved Mrs Weasley and killed the basilisk.' McGonagall said to him proudly.

Shaking his head he replied. 'I let it live with orders to build more tunnels and protect the school. Let's go Ginny the old fool wants to see us.' He walked to the door and pulled Ginny along with his hand that was still around her waist and Ginny followed blushing profusely. 'Oh and the meeting was postponed Professor so it will take place in three days time.' He added

Walking through the corridors and meeting no one they went past the gargoyle which jumped out of the way without asking for the password sensing Harry's anger for the headmaster beyond his door. Pushing the door open he saw Mrs Weasley sobbing into Mr Weasley shoulder and Dumbledore just sat there behind his desk.

'Mum, Dad.' Ginny squealed hugging both her parents both her parents who were startled by what happened next.

Sending a vicious probe tearing through Dumbledore's mind Harry found he not only knew where the chamber was but purposefully let this happen.

'WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE YOU CRACKPOT OLD FOOL.' Harry began yelling after sending the images to all three Weasleys. 'HOW COULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN TO THE STUDENTS AND HOGWARTS WHEN YOU KNEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND HOW TO STOP IT. DUMBLEDORE YOU ARE SACKED NOW GET OUT OF MY SCHOOL!' he finished with his screams rumbling throughout Hogwarts. After a few moments the castle rumbled as if to agree and Dumbledore found himself outside the school gates with his bags packed next to him.

'I'm sorry you had to see that you three.' Harry said sitting behind the desk. 'I'll help you with anything you want just ask me.' He finished with wisdom in his eyes that far surpassed his years.

Arthur Weasley was about to speak when Lucious Malfoy came storming through the door with a house elf behind him was.

DOBBY

'Where is Dumbledore?' Malfoy spat.

'Sacked.' Harry said calmly.

'Well done Mr Potter.' Lucious said with a smirk on his face. 'Perhaps now I could talk with a person with actual common sense.'

'Yes but first.' Harry began and threw a sock in Malfoy's face that he conjured and said to Dobby in elf. 'Catch it.'

'Ugh, what are you doing boy.' Malfoy said throwing the sock behind him and didn't noticed Dobby catch it.

'Master has freed Dobby, Dobby is a free elf. Dobby is a free elf.' Dobby said holding the sock as if it were gold.

'WHAT. You lost me my servant boy.' Lucious snarled and drew his wand out of his cane.

Dobby sprang onto the desk and snapped his fingers and Lucious was thrown backwards through the door and down the stairs and they heard a resounding snap that Harry hoped was the prat's wand.

'Thank you Dobby. Now what were you going to say Mr Weasley?' Harry asked.

'Well Harry, I was actually going to ask what happened and how you saved Ginny?' Arthur asked the new Headmaster.

Harry slowly stood up and opened the cupboard. Harry picked a the bowl with light blue liquid swirling inside of it, turning around he placed it in the centre of the desk. 'This is a pensieve and it'll show you what happened through my memories.' Harry explained putting his index finger to his side temple. While he pulled his finger away a silver strand followed it and he placed it in the pensieve which promptly swirled.

'Lean forward and you'll see.' Harry said as he leaned forward and fell through the window of the pensieve.

Looking slightly apprehensive the three Weasleys walked forwards and fell through the window of the pensieve into Harry's memory.

They landed in Moaning Myrtle's Bathroom and heard hissing. 'Open.' Ginny understood.

'I can understand it.' Ginny said before breaking into fresh tears.

'I thought you might because you were possessed by Voldemort.' Harry said jumping into the pipe after his basilisk self with the Weasleys following close behind him.

They watched the whole scene play out from Harry calling on the basilisk and defeating Tom and when they went back into the office he said. 'Lucious Malfoy cause all this but I inadvertently let it continue.' Mr Weasley was about to interject before Harry held up a finger to silence him. 'I found the diary he hid in one of Ginny's books, I looked over it with every spell that I could but I still returned it to her.' He finished letting out a sigh.

'It's ok Harry you did your best and you thought for what was best. We can't blame for that.' Molly said

He was about to reply before they heard a knock on the door. Schooling his features he said. 'Enter.' And saw Minerva come in to his new office.

'Harry.' She said with a shock look passing over her face before she schooled h features. 'Where is Professor Dumbledore?' she asked him.

'He has been sacked for a multitude of reasons ranging from inability to stop a conspiracy he had knowledge of and aiding said plot.' Harry told her in a calm voice.

'But then who will be the headmaster now?' she asked almost frantic.

'I will be acting Headmaster of Hogwarts until such a time I deem another to take the title.' He told her standing up and looking out the window. 'But I could use your help if you are willing Minerva.' Harry told her with the barest hint of a smile on his face.

'It would be an honor.' The Transfiguration teacher said giving Harry a slight bow. 'What is our first order of business Headmaster?' she asked the 2nd year.

'Gather all the students in the Great Hall; we have much to tell them.' Harry told Minerva before she walked out the door to complete his orders.

'Well you three.' He said turning to the Weasleys with a smile on his face. 'Let's get to the hall.'

They walked in silence and when they got there they were surprised to see most of the students already sitting. The three redheads went to the Gryffindor table to sit with the rest of their family while Harry continued to walk to the Head Table. When he reached the table he had a brief discussion with Professor Sprout and turned around to see everyone sitting and silence rained upon the hall.

Casting the Sonorous Charm Harry began to speak. 'As you all know in the past months there have been attacks and people, even a ghost, have been petrified. Professor Dumbledore will is no longer welcome at Hogwarts as he knew of the attacks and could easily end them. He has been sacked and will be trialed awaiting a date. Some of you might know that this afternoon there was an additional double attack on another resident muggleborns and a girl was taken into the chamber itself.' When Harry said this there were quiet murmurs throughout the hall. Harry felt his throat tighten as he began speaking again. 'The attack petrified Hermione Granger and Emily Evans and the girl's identity will remain a secret for her own reasons. As you know Gilderoy Lockhart was a fraud taking credit for other peoples deeds and then obliviating them, unfortunately he foolishly tried to obliviate me when I returned from the chamber and I reflected the attack increasing its power. Lockhart is now receiving treatment in St Mungo's.'

There was a collective gasp around the hall as Harry turned to his potions master and said. 'Severus Snape, you had ties with Dumbledore keeping you here concerning you recent past. I will not sack you but I give you a three choices. You may leave the school as a teacher and begin anew, stay as the potions master or become apprentice to next year's DADA teacher pending advancement to full DADA teacher.'

Severus slowly stood from his chair and walked in front of Harry. 'I would like to become the apprentice Harry.' Then shook Harry's hand.

'Now, Quidditch has been cancelled for the rest of term and you are all excused from classes seeing as we all need a breather from recent events. Have fun and enjoy yourselves but study because there will still be end of year exams, now if the families and close friends of those who have been paralyzed kindly follow me to the Hospital Wing.' He said setting off to the Hospital Wing with several people trailing behind as well as a few teachers.

When Harry opened the doors he saw some students sitting and whispering to each other and Harry felt a rush a people went to their respective person. Harry slowly made his way to Emily and Hermione who were sitting next to each other in an embrace.

Harry cleared his throat and said. 'I still think you two are cheating on me.' Snapping to their senses they saw Harry and immediately threw themselves at him and began mumbling to him. 'It's ok, everything is alright.' He said rubbing their backs in order to sooth his two girlfriends.

The three of them were safe and that was all that mattered.

Three days later

Harry strode into the Wizengomet Conference room with Hermione and Emily on either side of him. 'I, Harry James Potter claim my inheritance to the house Potter, Draekon, Jackson, Ikari and Black.'

When those words left his mouth there was a massive uproar with everyone yelling their objections with some amplifying their voices. The minister raised his wand into the air and set off a loud bang effectively silencing the wizards.

'We all know that Mr Potter is not of age but he has be emancipated through his inheritance from his parents and has the right to claim his other four. All say aye.' Fudge said lifting his hand as all but one Dumbledore did the same. 'Harry Potter has been recognized as a fully fledged member and holds five seats in the Wizengomet.' He said smacking his gavel down.

The first part of the meeting was boring for Harry so he only half listened to Fudge while having a conversation with Emily and Hermione through telepathy.

Harry said. 'I move the motion to forcibly remove Albus Dumbledore from his position of Chief Warlock and furthermore remove him from the Wizengomet completely.' As Fudge was about to conclude the meeting.

There was deathly silence before Dumbledore rose to his feet and sternly asked. 'On what terms?'

'The terms you putting the students and Hogwarts itself at risk by holding the Philosophers stone there, hiring a fraud for our DADA class, allowing a conspiracy against all muggleborn students at Hogwarts continue while you had the power to stop it and lying when a innocent man was sent to Azkaban for several crimes that he had not committed.' Harry said with a glare at Dumbledore.

'Do you have anything to say Dumbledore?' Fudge asked with a slightly somber tone.

Not trusting his voice Dumbledore sat back down in his chair. 'Very well.' Fudge continued. 'All those in favor of the motion say aye.' Raising his hand again everyone did the same minus Dumbledore.

'Albus you are hereby relieved of your duty as Chief Warlock and sacked from the Wizengomet. Court dismissed.' Fudge said banging his gavel and cleaning up his papers.

Dumbledore began walking to the trio as they stood. 'Harry how could you, after all that I had done fo-'he began.

'ALL THAT YOU HAD DONE FOR ME, YOU SENT ME TO MY RELATIVES WITH CHARMS ON ME THAT MADE THEM PHYSICALLY BEAT ME. THE FIRST FIVE YEARS OF MY LIFE WERE A LIVING HELL THANKS TO WHAT YOU DO, AS WELL AS YOU PUTTING LOCKS ON MY MAGIC TO HAMPER MY PROGRESS. Well now they're off.' Harry said to Dumbledore whispering the last part.

Releasing the final lock holding back all his magical potential the entire Wizarding Britain shook from the resulting shockwave caused by Harry. His hair white he turned around a walked away from Dumbledore in disgust with Hermione and Emily who looked at Dumbledore with pure loathing.

'Hermione, I know the old fool will try something so I need you to convince your parents to stay at Potter Manor with me and Sirius for the summer. I've already convinced our parents Emily.' She said putting both his arms around their waists while his hair changed back to normal but his eyes stayed pure white.

Taking a portkey back to the Evans Household Harry quickly wrote a letter to the Prophet telling them what to write and joined the others downstairs.

'H- Harry?' Sirius asked uncertainly.

'Yea Sirius.' He said cocking an eyebrow

'You're hair and your eyes. What the hell happened to you this year?' Sirius asked as he watched Harry's eyes turn green.

'Well you should ask Tonks, she was the one who gave a stranger a hug when she found out I was a Metamorphagus.' Harry said casually making himself some coffee. 'Why don't you invite Tonks to stay with us this summer?' Harry asked the man.

'Sure, how long can you three stay here for?' Sirius replied.

'Not too long. An hour at most I think.' Pulling out the Marauders map he said. 'So Sirius care you explain why to pranked my gift?'

Sirius looked at the parchment and burst out laughing. 'It actually worked?' he asked between laughs.

Over the next hour Harry got to know his Godfather properly while Sirius learnt an equal amount of things from Harry. 'You're really the heir of Hogwarts?' Sirius asked completely shocked.

'Yep, think of all the pranks I get away with.' He said to Sirius leaning back in his chair. 'Well time to go.' He finished looking at his watch and standing up.

'See you this Summer Harry.' Sirius said. 'If you need a DADA teacher find Remus Lupin.'

'See you Sirius.' The trio said before grabbing hold of the portkey and felt a pull behind his naval.

'Alright you two off to bed.' Harry said with a grin. 'I need to find two new teachers for Hogwarts.' He finished sitting behind his desk pulling out a quill and parchment.

After both girls gave him a kiss on either cheek the walked out of his office hand in hand.

Harry heard a thrill note pierce the quiet air and looked up to see Fawkes on his perch. Holding out his arm Harry asked as Fawkes landed on it. 'What are you still doing here?'

Harry got his answer when they were both engulfed in fire and when it disappeared Harry asked. 'Did you just bond with me?'

The bird gave a nod and Harry began writing the letter while stroking his Phoenixes head.

Dear Remus Lupin

I would like to inquire if you would be interested in teaching at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. I would like your answer before July 31st if possible

Harry James Potter

Harry said. 'Fawkes can you take this to Remus Lupin for me please.' And the bird took the letter in its beak and disappeared in a ball of flames. Taking out another piece of parchment Harry write a letter to Tonks.

Hey Tonks

We need a new Potions master so I was wondering if you could take some time off from your Auror work and come teach at Hogwarts.

Yours'

Harry James Potter

Rolling up the parchment he tied it to Twilight's leg and flew off. 'Two down one to go.' Harry thought to himself before calling. 'Dobby.'

With a loud pop the house elf mentioned was standing in front of Harry. 'Great Master Harry sir what does you need of Dobby?' the frantic elf asked.

'Dobby I want you to begin the restoration of Potter Manor. I will pay you one galleon a week and Sundays off.' Harry said looking at the elf.

'Yes Master Harry Potter. Dobby will begin right away.' Dobby said before catching a galleon Harry threw and disappeared with a pop.

Harry turned around just in time to see a ministry owl come through the window. 'Fucking Merlin's Beard.' He said taking the letter from the owl that apparently had to wait for a reply.

Dear Headmaster Potter

I, Minister Fudge would like to have a meeting with you in sometime to discuss a matter of great importance.

Harry replied and said he'd be there tomorrow at 8 o'clock. Giving the owl his reply it flew off into the sky. Slumping into his chair Harry went through the drawers finding only documents and other such things but one of the drawers wouldn't open. 'Alohomora.' Harry said as the drawer popped open with a satisfied click.

Opening it he saw that it contained two rings on a plush cushion. Harry picked them up and heard a voice call out around him. 'Take them Harry, you have two more houses to claim. The house of Merlin and Le Fay.'

'Who are you and are you sure?' He asked uncertainly.

'Yes, I am Hogwarts. I will help you with anything you may need and I will show you the chamber of the four once you have claimed those rings.'

Harry eyed the rings uncertainly before slipping them on one at a time. Each time he was filled with immense power and new knowledge of spells and Magic. Sitting there he heard an archway open behind him, standing up slowly the voice of Hogwarts encouraged him so he walked through.

'This is the founder chamber's, it is similar to the Room of Requirement.' Hogwarts explained to him. 'Anything you require will appear to you, you can enter the room from any place in Hogwarts as long as they are a part of your lineage or your ladies.'

'This is amazing thank you.' He said to the castle taking one more look around before going through the archway he came from which closed behind him. Walking out of his office he was going to look for his two ladies before he saw McGonagall standing there apparently waiting for him.

'Hello Minerva, why didn't you come in?' he asked her.

'I would have Harry but you have yet to set a new password.' She explained to him. 'Now I need to discuss with you who should be our new teachers.'

'I have already sent a letter offering Remus Lupin the opening for DADA and Nymphadora Tonks as our new potions master.' He told her. 'If you would like to suggest anyone else….' Harry said trailing off.

'No Headmaster those are two good people for the jobs, I was just going to remind you that you would need to choose.' She said.

'Thank you Minerva, I was wondering whether the dueling club will be able to continue for the rest of the year.' He said to her.

'I see no problem with that Harry. I'll put up notices on the notice boards for the students.' McGonagall said before walking off but not before saying. 'I hope you have a speech prepared for the Leaving Feast.'

Harry nearly fell on his face when he heard this. Slowly regaining his composure he walked to the Entrance Hall where he somehow knew they were. Walking with long purposeful strides stopped only once by Draco who was now stuck to a door upside down. He saw them standing against the wall talking about something he couldn't hear holding hands.

'Ok now I know that you're cheating on me.' He said with a mock look on his face.

'Harry!' they exclaimed pulling him into a hug.

'Good to see you missed me.' He said pulling them closer not noticing a faint gold light growing around them. Getting a serious look on his face Harry said. 'You know I love you two right.'

'Of course Harry. We love you to.' They replied in unison.

When they said this, the golden light reached its peak and engulfed the three teens. They held onto each other not knowing what else to do as they slowly rose into the air a few meters. They gasped feeling their minds and souls merging, slowly the feeling faded and they felt their feet touch the ground.

'What in Merlin's name was that?' Emily asked still holding onto Harry and Hermione.

'We just soul bonded.' Harry said slowly. 'It's when a couple are perfect for each other their minds and souls merge completely.' He explained to them. 'Hermione try and change into an animal.'

Hermione looked confused but screwed her eyes up in concentration and a moment later a gold and silver phoenix was standing in her place. Quickly nodding to Harry Emily focused and became a white and silver Phoenix. Harry was last turning into a jet black Phoenix with Blood red stripes. Looking at each other all three thought the same thing. Flapping their wings they began racing across the castle sing thrill notes every now and then and after a few minutes Fawkes joined them.

Going out through a window they landed on the Astronomy tower and began talking.

'So I have a Phoenix as a familiar and I am a Phoenix.' Harry said chuckling slightly at himself.

'Yes Harry, I know it's weird but true.' Fawkes replied to his new familiar.

'Hermione let me show you how to control your emotions concerning your forms.' Emily said taking off with Hermione behind her.

'Fawkes is there any magical animals that are extinct?' Harry asked.

'There is the Drear Wolf.' The phoenix said.

'Well it's not extinct anymore.' Harry said diving off the side of the tower and plummeted sixty feet before opening his wings and landed on the ground.

Transforming back to normal Harry focused on the Drear Wolf and slowly his body began to change. His hands became paws with razors claws, his teeth became longer and sharper and his mouth and nose got longer until it became a snout. Standing on all fours Harry howled to the sky. Emily and Hermione quickly landed and changed to normal staring at Harry with open mouths.

He stood at least 8 feet tall; his razor sharp teeth had black electricity running along them, while his claws were pitch black and looked like they were venomous.

Looking at himself, Harry changed to normal and was grinning ear to ear. 'I call it. He said jokingly.

'Harry. Ugh never mind, let's just get to bed.' Emily said with her and Hermione both holding either of Harry's hands.

'Hey Harry. Wake up.' Emily whispered in his ear seductively the next morning.

Sitting right up Harry complained. 'Where the hell am I going to eat?' then lay back down.

'Well Headmaster I believe that you need to sit at the Head Table and don't worry, we'll be with you for the rest of the day.' She told him sitting on the edge of his bed.

Quickly dressing into his robes, Emily blushed slightly but didn't look away, he and Emily met up with Hermione on the seventh floor and the three of them went down to breakfast hand in hand. When they entered the hall everyone fell silent, giving Emily and Hermione each a hug they separated and Harry began his journey to the Head Table. He received some strange looks as he sat down on the large chair feeling nervous.

Looking around he got a supportive nod from McGonagall and began eating breakfast and slowly but surely felt more at ease. Finishing his breakfast he went to Emily and Hermione and they enjoyed a relaxing day sitting by the lake and talking with the occasional visit from a teacher.

'Now.' Harry began at the Leaving Feast. 'This is weird.' This comment earned a chuckle from the students and teachers alike. 'Another year is gone and I still tried to get myself killed. I have a few announcements before we enjoy a wonderful feast. First off is that the Dueling club will continue but in more capable hands than the last, second I advise all of you to be careful during the summer. Sirius Black is an innocent man and his best friend betrayed him and his friends, Peter Pettigrew is a dangerous man and you need to try and avoid him at all costs if you see him.' Harry said in a grave voice. 'Now then let us eat.' Harry clapped his hands and the plates filled with delicious food.

Everyone ate their food with joy and chatted amongst themselves, when everyone was finished the food disappeared and was replaced by all kinds of desert ranging from ice cream to Treacle Fudge.

'Come on Ron, we're going to be late for the train.' Ginny complained puling her brother along towards the train.

Harry and his Lady's laughed from their compartment watching Ron struggle along with his sister. Harry thought to himself, 'This is going to be a very interesting summer.'
