Previously on the last chapter:
"Okay I will meet you next to the bathrooms." Harry said and whatever was connecting them was cut off so Ron was left with his own thoughts.
I am going to kill him for leaving the safety of Privet Drive then I am going to same how resurrect his ass and let Hermione and mum have ago at him. Ron thought of the things Hermione would do to Harry for getting himself into trouble and he smirked It was going to be fun to watch.
"Bill," Ron came right to his older brother's side, " I am going to the bathroom, I will right back okay?" Bill nodded and Ron walked across the lobby and turned the corner to head towards the bathrooms.
New chapter
Meeting with Harry, Ron and Ceidhli
When he reached the bathrooms the only one around was the teen who was looking at the pamphlets and he really didn't look like Harry the teen turned towards Ron who tensed and grabbed his wand which was in his pocket and pointed it at the teen.
"You need chaos in your soul. . . " the young teen said smiling his hand up in a no defensive motion Ron looked shocked but quickly said the next part.
". . . to give birth to a dancing star."
"Chao and order are not enemies, only opposites." Harry finished the statement that they had put together along with a few other catch phrases.
"Harry mate what happened to you?" Ron asked looking at Harry's taller frame and nice clean clothes.
Harry smiled "Finally had a growth spurt that came around the last month and the clothes well that's part of the reason why I need to talk to you in private." Harry looked behind Ron and he quickly nodded to someone. Ron turned to see the blonde beauty whom everyone was wondering who she was. She smile brightly at Ron who which he turned bright red she quietly said.
"Two by two multiple this one by one so a second can do things twice as fast." Ron braced himself for something terrible to happen, he closed his eyes but there was only a hint of a tug and then nothing. Ron opened his eyes to look at the woman's smile, it was gentle he didn't feel anything cruel about her. She motioned for Ron to look to his left and when he did he came face to face with another him.
"What the Bloody HELL is this?!" cried Ron looking from the other him, to Harry who was laughing at him to the blonde woman who just kept on smiling, her eyes were bright with laughter and mischievous a lot like Harry's were back in the days before fifth year.
"This is a copy of you, it can do magic and knows everything about you, it can be stabilized for as long as I want it to be and when it merges back into you, you will gain the knowledge the copy has collected for you within the time you have been separated. This way you and Harry can have a long chat without the whole Order of the Phoenix looking for you. Plus its great for crunch time during exams times and homework nights. Is that alright?" Ceidhli explained gently knowing any sudden moves and she would be hexed, well tempted to be hexed she wasn't about to get actually hit.
"I guess it's cool will it do my homework? Oh Harry I want a large explanation for all of this." Ron said looking warily at the copy who seemed to simply walk away as Ron agreed to talk with Harry, " hey where is he going?"
"Back to you brothers so they won't worry." Ceidhli said looking at both Ron and Harry. "Let's go into Ragnok's office and chat shall we it will be easier to relax." Harry and Ron both nodded and Ceidhli snapped her fingers and they all went up into flames and landed in the office where Harry and Ceidhli were before.
"That was cool," Ron stated after they finished transporting looking around the room.
"Yeah, it is pretty cool, Ceidhli said that she would help me work on it so that I will be able to do it also." Harry said as he sat down next to Ron. " It is going to be better than apparating."
Ron took a deep breath. "Alright Harry it is time for you to tell me everything that is going on." Ron said looking from Harry to the woman who he expected was Ceidhli.
Harry sighed and quietly said, "Ron I would like you to meet, Ceidhli Merlin's baby sister and my ancestor, a bunch of great- aunt."
Ron stared at him like an idiot.
"I am not joking. . ." Harry said slowly and then slowly over a half hour or so explained everything that happened to him last night. The ghosts of his family, explanations, the truths about Dumbledore and McGonagall which got an 'eww that image is so wrong' from Ron, the dog Asia, simply everything including the prophecy that Dumbledore told him the night Sirius died, Ceidhli's shopping exclusives.
"And then I saw you again and talked to you through a connection that Ceidhli created for me, so now you know the rest."
Ron simply blinked twice looked at Harry and then Ceidhli who smiled softly at him, "Harry mate if I say I want to be you again or get jealous again remind me of this day, and hex me." Ron said completely serious.
"Can I have that in writing?" Harry asked with a smile on his face.
"So you are like a thousand years old," Ron said to Ceidhli completely ignoring Harry's comment, who pouted slightly.
"Add a few centuries on and you get closer to my mark yes." Ceidhli said quickly not really wanting to talk about her age, she may be ageless but she was still a woman who didn't really talk about her age - ever.
"I always thought Guardians of Magic were myths, fairytales." Ron said to himself but Ceidhli and Harry heard him and Ceidhli heard him.
"Nope simply kept quiet about ourselves so it wasn't in any real history books so there wouldn't be any real evidences of us, and if there was we would make it disappear, only word of mouth survive and that always turns to myth. Plus anything that had evidences that was to difficult to hide is in our libraries."
Ron nodded and looked to Harry, "well mate you seem to have a shit load of problems." Ron said thinking about the prophecy, Dumbledore and Voldemort.
"I know and I understand if you don't want to be my friend any longer, I mean. . . to protect your family and yourself. . . You shouldn't be associated with me."
"Don't even think about it Harry Potter. I know I can be a prat and insensitive most of the time, but Harry you are my best friend. You are more of a brother to me than my other brothers are. You're my twin I stood by you in every year of school, except for that time in fourth year but I think of that as my stupid prat stage of life everyone goes through it in life." Ron said.
"I will stand with you when you go against . . . Vol . . .Vol . . .Voldemort." Ron stuttered out when he said the forbidden name, " and I will be standing next to you throughout everything, girlfriends, the war, wives, and even psychos with credit cards. Got it!" Harry nodded slightly not knowing what to say after that kind of speech, but he did laugh at the description of Ceidhli.
"Thanks mate, I think of you as my brother also," they each stood up and gave each other on one arm hug.
"That was beautiful you guys, but I object to being called a psycho with credit cards," Ceidhli said looking at them from her seat her arms folded in front of her smiling brightly at the scene.
"Does she ever stop smiling?" Ron asked Harry, Harry looked to Ceidhli.
"Not that I can think of, but I have only known her less than 12 hours." Harry commented thinking for a moment.
"And yet from everything you have told me she attracts trouble just like you- she has to be family," Ron joked as Ceidhli made a face at them before getting out of her chair and began to stalk towards her prey, both Harry and Ron looked at each other and began to move away from her in a quick run they separated and one on each side of the table so Ceidhli couldn't reach both of them.
"Now, now Ceidhli you really don't want to hurt us, it would be very bad for you." Harry commented shaking a finger at her.
"For me? I don't think so." Ceidhli said thinking for a moment, " why would you say that?"
"You hurt us, we will tell Hermione on you." Harry said and both Ron and Harry began to laugh at the thought of Hermione going after Ceidhli.
"I don't think she would hurt me, boyo, think about it. I will be another girlfriend. She will have someone new to talk to someone who can understand her thinking, we could start out voting you two when it comes to a lot of different things." Ceidhli said smuggle. Both Ron and Harry looked at each other in horror, they hadn't thought of that.
"Do you think that we would have to do more homework and things, less adventures?" Ron asked Harry thinking about Ceidhli and Hermione coming together. If Ceidhli was anything like Hermione. . . The thought was scary.
"No, Ceidhli doesn't do the homework thing, she isn't the scholar of the group thank Merlin." Harry said to Ron trying to ease the idea of more homework out of their minds. "She is the one who talked me into doing a bunch of different stuff today she is born to cause trouble, so we don't have to worry."
"Thank Merlin."
"Hey you guys I am still right here." Ceidhli said with her hands on black jeans, her tang top was riding high on her stomach. " But that was very nice of you to say Harry."
"Thanks we know." Harry and Ron said at the same time. Ceidhli simple rolled her eyes.
A knock on the door interrupted them. "Give us ten minutes and then we will leave, Ragnok," Ceidhli said towards the door. " Come Ron Harry, sit down for a moment, there is still some stuff to discuss about what is going to be happening."
Both Ron and Harry at down on either side of Ceidhli, "Alright because you two and Hermione will be more than likely be on the front lines during this war I have decided to hire you three as warriors. . ."
"Don't you mean soldiers?"
"No, Ron soldiers are trained to follow orders and the rules to the 'T' and they are the ones who get killed first, I want you three to be warriors. You see warriors fight harder than most soldiers but they don't follow the rules. They bend them and break them in order to make sure they are safe and the innocence's are also safe. Soldiers only care about their orders, either to win the battle or save the innocent normally they don't care if others around them are dieing- collateral damage. You three are already on your way to being some excellent warriors look at you adventures."
"Cool an excuse on rule breaking," Harry said to Ron.
"Do we really need an excuse to break rules?" Ron said to Harry smirking, " plus do you really think that we could get away with breaking the rules with that excuse with Snape as the con?" Harry laughed nodding in agreement the trio rarely needed an excuse to break the rules and with Snape, no matter the excuse he wouldn't believe them.
"Well we will just see what that man does because I am here now and I promise you that I do enjoy torture of all kinds. . ." Ceidhli said while smiling evilly. " Anyway back to the point on hand since I am hiring you three. You will get paid, very well I might add, you will also get am expense account for the things that you will need and I should be getting for you. So anything you can think of that isn't really frivolous, you will work for it by training or other things that I can think of to pay me back."
"I could handle that, I mean it has to be better than working for Fred and George for the summer, I think that they were going to test their products on me."
"I don't know if we should try it. I mean I have seen her shopping, I have a feeling that training and working for her will be just as difficult." Harry whispered loudly to Ron, thinking back to their trip to Japan and shuddered in mock horror.
"I repeat, I was not that bad." Ceidhli said pouting with her arms across her chest.
"Yes you were," Harry stated and than sat up, "lets go do stuff, I mean we have plenty of time until Ron needs to heads back to the shop and we need some guy time. Ron and I haven't spent time together for awhile." Harry said looking at Ceidhli with his puppy dog eyes hoping that they could hang out for awhile.
"Fine go play hang out. The copy can be him for as long as I want it to be." Ceidhli said waving her hand at the boys. "Remember those Ron looks to much looks to much like a Weasley to go out how about tan skin and a skull cap with sunglasses like what Harry has?" Ceidhli asked the boys, Ron nodded looking at Harry's image knowing that his brothers wouldn't recognize him.
"Create" Ceidhli waved her hand and instantly a pair of sunglasses and a skullcap that looked like Harry's but was brown instead of black was floating in front of Ron.
"Now, I really can't be seen in public with those clothes sweetie, and we don't have time to shop so, " another wave of her hand and Ron's old tee-shirt and jeans changed before their eyes into a pair of baggy black jeans and a deep brown tee-shirt. Next to him was a brown leather jacket that was similar to what Harry was wearing, to top off the look she darkened his skin slightly to give it a more tan look. "Now you wear that stuff and no one will recognize you two. Don't worry I will even let you two go play by yourselves if you are really bad."
"Don't you mean good?" Ron asked looking at Harry's aunt.
"Nope bad will get you good." Ceidhli said seriously confusing both Ron and Harry.
They were about to leave the office when Ceidhli stopped them by grabbing their arms. "I almost forgot, 'with tracers of primitive magic that holds them to follow rules that were not made for them I erase them from all, so that the rules can be bent and broken for the time. Erase it all.'" Ceidhli said in a calm strong voice and a bright blue light flashed around Ron and Harry who looked at each other in amazement.
"What was that?" Harry asked, she never did that before, and judging by the spell it was getting rid of something.
"Oh I just made it possible for you two to do magic without the ministry knowing about it." Ceidhli said, " you see before I was simply blocking the signal with my powers and now you can do whatever away from me."
"Really." Ron cried very excited at the thought, Ceidhli nodded and took out his wand to try something. "Wingardium Leviosa" Ron pointed his wand at a chair and it began to float up in the air he placed it back on the floor and waited for an owl from the ministry but nothing came.
"This is going to be so cool." Ron commented thinking of what he was going to do to his brothers the next the he saw them. "I mean think about it, I can do so many different things to, Fred and George. To get back at them for everything they did to me over the years, and they won't be able to say that I did it because it will be with magic and everyone believes that I can't do anything do to the ministry. Brilliant." Ron explained to Ceidhli and Harry as they slowly left the office.
"I give him the ability to do magic over the summer without any interference and instead of working for the greater good. He chooses to do pranks." Ceidhli said to anyone who was listening to her as she shook her head in supposed disbelief, then she wrapped her right arm around Ron's neck, " I think I love you kid." She said in a loud serious tone but the effect was ruined by her lips curling upwards.
Ron smirked at her sticking his nose up in the air, looking a lot like Malfoy and in a shrilling loud voice sounding remarkably like Malfoy.
"Thanks doll, but you aren't my type."
"Yeah, Ceidhli Ron is more into bookworm best friends with bushy hair and a know-it-all personality." Harry explained to the pouting older woman, Ron looked shocked that Harry would even suggest that.
"How did. . . I mean. . . why would. . . I don't like her!" stammered out Ron with the Weasley blush coming in full force.
"Sure Ron, you keep telling yourself that and maybe you will get everyone else to start believing it." Harry said simply shaking his head at his slow but loyal friend. Ron stuck out his tongue at his best friend in retaliation, Ceidhli laughed at their antics.
"Don't worry I have been watching you three for a very long time and I know everything about anything. Plus I took detail notes when Harry was talking about your history earlier."
"Everything?" Ron at the moment looked nervous as did Harry, they did something's that not even family code would break.
"All the important things, I was there when you, Harry faced each challenge you were given in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year. I also know that what you dealt with 4th and 5th years with the three tasks and then Voldemort in the graveyard. 5th year you had to deal with the Umbitch and all the lies that floating around you. Unfortunately I was busy dealing with missions so I really wasn't watching like I had done before. I am sorry that I wasn't there for you and your friends." Ceidhli said sadly. "That's why I wanted you too tell me what happen to you all, I didn't want you to go through that again but I was needs. Sorry to disappoint you love."
"Don't worry, I'll survive, I always do." Harry said in a matter of fact voice. "Ceidhli was startled by what Harry said, and Ron well he looked upset and nervous he never liked it when Harry talked like that.
Ceidhli thought for and moment and understood, what Harry was trying to say.
"Yes survival is important, and Harry trust me when I say survival is not the most important thing in this world." Ceidhli would have continue to say more but Griphook and Rognok came up to them and Ceidhli had stopped talking not wanting anyone to know what they had been talking about.
"Ah, Ms. Storm-Knight everything has been dealt with according to your earlier idea's. Also remember the identification cards will change as the three charges with each disguise, simply state to the id cards, 'charge face' and a picture that it has of them will change to what they are wearing. After say ' change name' and state the name that you are going to use and the name will change afterward." Rognok explained to Ron and Harry while passing out a ton of information and their new credit cards.
"If you have any problems come to see me or send an owl. I will help you with anything I can." Griphook said in a proud voice, "and thank you for considering me to be the goblin to your family and business vaults." Griphook stated.
"Not a problem," Harry said smiling at Griphook. "You were always nice to me so I am glad to help out even though they have been done."
"Thanks from me too, these cards are kinda cool." Ron stated as he kept looking at the id cards that read Ron Weasley age 16 years. "Is there anyway to change the age?"
"Yes the same way you change your name." Rognok said who smiled knowing the things these boys could do his all the stuff they never finished.
"This is a land of dangerous, can anyone else use them?" Harry asked thinking of all the Death Eaters that could hide in the world with these cards.
"No this is a Storm-Knight idea, her prototype and no one else can access this equipment, not that anyone else has thought about it. " I placed the power of the goblin fist" Rognok said strongly. " Harry Powers said and shook his head in question.
They reached the main lobby Ceidhia, stayed slightly behind the to talk with the goblins some more while Ron and Harry were looking around , most of the time they joke and joke about different things but Ron quickly stopped laughing things they were joking about when Ron saw his brother Bill walking closer as if he was going to try and eavesdrop on them all. Ron really couldn't blame his brother for trying unfortunately he really didn't want anyone to know yet but couldn't say anything out loud to Ceidhli, in case Bill has already got into a place where he could hear things. Ron quickly remember what Harry done with him - talking inside his mind and how Harry went into how to do it. Ron took a deep breath and he started to think really hard at both Harry and Ceidhli.
"Hey can anyone hear me? Ceidhli? Harry?"
"Yes Ron, what is it?" Ceidhli asked patiently as Ron yelled inside her head, he couldn't reach Harry without help.
"Hey it works!" Ron exclaimed happily.
"Why do you both say that? Of course it works, I am a telepath. I hear thoughts all the time. So when you said my name I can start a conversation with you, without a problem I just push your thoughts ahead of everyone else's."
"Well, I didn't know that you were a telepath."
"Oh sorry I thought I told you both." Ceidhli said blushing slightly.
"Nope, not a word to me. Anyway the reason why I was trying to contact you was that my brother Bill, you know him?"
"Yes I do I know all your family members."
"Cool, well he is trying to listen in. From what I know from the twins, is that the Order is worried that the Goblins will side with You-Know-Who, during the war. So Bill is looking for anything strange happenings around the bank. With you talking to the Head Goblin dude is a huge warning sign for him." Ron stated, and he could actually feel Ceidhli nodding even though she made no movement simply watched Harry talking with Rognok and Griphook, it was really cool but felt weird.
"Don't worry Ron, he can't hear anything, I made sure to cast a spell around all three of us when we left the office so that anyone trying to listen in, will hear some boring facts and conversations that would make anyone fall asleep." Ceidhli explained as she reassured Ron that they were not in any danger of being found out be Dumbledore, the Order, or the Death Eaters.
"Cool you have got to teach us that spell, it will be great against Snape."
"Don't worry Ron, I will."
"Can I talk with Harry also?" Ron said knowing Harry couldn't hear anything or he would have been speaking by now.
"Yes, I will connect you both so you can talk with each other without me hearing you. So you can have some privacy. Hermione when she is told will be given the same ability so you all can talk where ever you are in the world, nothing will be able to break the bond."
"Cool , hey Harry can you hear me now?"
"Yep, I was listening to the last part of what Ceidhli said to you. Think of everything we can do, at school. . . Or when we are at different houses."
"Yeah,, tests and homework questions, simply ask Hermione. . ."
"Who will never help us cheat on anything you know that as well as I do. So don't even think of asking her to."
"Yeah I know that, but a guy can dream can't he." Ron said with a dreamy smile on his face.
"Well gentlemen I believe it is time for us to go shopping for awhile, for our time is slowly cutting away." Ceidhli said, Harry and Ron both nodded to Rognok and Griphook then Ceidhli motioned the teens towards the door and Bill.
"Ah, Ceidhli Bill is there." Harry said looking at Bill who looked like he was getting ready to walk over and to talk with them.
"I know love, Ron already told me but we can't do anything that draws anymore attention to us. So going the back door is a bad idea, it makes us look like we are hiding something."
"Alright, but if he talks with us, he will be able to recognize our voices." Ron stated.
"You two worry way too much. Its already covered." Ceidhli said then began walking towards the door.
"I think that we are going to be worried a lot more than we use to with her guiding us into battle." Harry commented to Ron.
"You thing so too, good I thought I was being a wuss." Ron said back to Harry who was watching Ceidhli reach Bill a second before they reached him also.
"The names Bill Weasley, how do you do?" Bill said to Ceidhli and held out his hand for Ceidhli to take.
"I am doing fine thank you but we are late, for shopping now. So if you can excuse me." Ceidhli took away her hand and began to circle him to leave. Not saying her name, Bill did notice but couldn't do anything to stop her really.
"I am sorry but I noticed that you were talking to Rognok the Head manager. Which is very shocking, I mean he is rarely seen outside of his office. Do you know him?"
"I know him very well actually. He is a great friend of my family and he called me to London to deal with some family issues." Ceidhli said looking Bill in the eyes, the best she could anyway because of the fact that she was wearing sunglasses, and Bill couldn't see her eyes.
"So excuse Mr. Weasley once again, but my nephews and I would like to leave." Ceidhli quickly left Bill's side and walked out the doors of Gringotts followed closely by Harry and Ron.
"Well boys lets go shopping." Ceidhli said looking out into Diagon Alley.
