AN: If anyone reads this constructive criticism is accepted! It will NOT be super Harry. Don't get me wrong I like super stories but I don't want to write them! The chapters will become longer as the story progresses. I am ashamed to admit that this is a crossover with Mortal Kambat though it will have very little to do with MK (Maybe just a few characters.) and I may just eliminate the crossover if people don't like it.

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Chapter 3: Meditation and the Monitoring Charm

Harry sat on his bed a little after noon and picked up the odd book again. He silently cursed the Dursleys for distracting him.

'Next time they can fix their own damn dinner.'

Quickly remembering how to find what you wanted in the book he thought of magical control.

How to Tame the Magic Within

As time passed in the wizarding world the practitioners of magic slowly lost touch with magic. Over hundreds of years power levels became lower and lower as more people began to believe in the impossibility of certain feats, relied on others, and the higher arts became forbidden or forgotten. The most powerful of governments silently helped this along, because it made the general populace easier to tame.

One of the first things to leave was Magical Control. Now it is commonly referred to as Wandless Magic. In reality the wand is not needed. They were first used as a minor focus for beginner apprentices to become accustomed to high levels of magic flowing through their bodies. This knowledge was hidden so govenments could control the usage of certain magics and restrict the use of others. Eventually wands were no longer made by their owners, but by these governments who made the magic output lower and placed hidden monitoring charms on them.

Now that that is out of the way let's get those monitoring charms off of you and your wand! This will not be easy. If you are not being monitored then skip to the next section.

Step 1: Enter your magical center.

Step 2: Search for a band encircling your core. Most of the band is usually close to the color of your core so search carefully.

Step 3: Find a thin strip on the band that seperates the most light( the beginning of the charm) and dark (the end of the charm) sections.

Step 4: Slowly will your magic into this strip and progress down the strip in the reverse direction in which it was placed. To know the right direction it is generally the darker side of the strip. Do not try to force it off! This could could alert the caster of the charm of your doings, damage you and your core, take all of your magic thus rendering you a muggle, or even kill you in the strain of fighting the charm.

Step 5: Once the darkest of the strip is gone your magic will begin to integrate itself with your body so stop here! Patience is the key. Remove another strip in a days time. Wait one whole day. If you remove them to soon your body could either be forced into a maical overload resulting in a magical induced coma and maybe death or your body being completely rebuilt to handle the magical capacity which is very unlikely!

Step 6: In order to completely rid yourself of this charm it is needed to be absorbed into your magic. To do this simply feed your magic into each section until it is completely devoid of the caster's magic. You will know when each section is gone because they will fade into the same color of you core and you will feel a slight rush of magic through your body.

Tips: Eat a large meal before removing each strip, because it may take some time to finish. Concentrate only on the task at hand to ensure you do not will to much magic into a section and cause an explosion in your core. It can not be stressed enough that you work with extreme patience and caution.

He sat and stared blankly at the book for a moment until he thought, 'Ok...how the bloody hell do I enter my center?'

The book once again began to rapidly turn pages until it settled on a page labled:

Meditation - Guide to Traversing the Mind and Magical Core

Meditating is commonly used to organize the mind and have more control ones emotions. It is a rather simple principle and is easy to master. The key to mastering it is patience. At first it will take time to enter a meditative state but as you practice it will take less time. Once mastered you can go through into a meditative state in the blink in an eye or stay in a partial meditation through your daily routine to better control emotions. This is incredibly helpful in a battle as you can think faster and decide the best choice of action more easily.

To meditate for the first time one must relax their body into a very comfortable position. Regulate your breathing to a comfortable pace and clear you mind. To clear your mind you must stop all concious thought and block out all sounds, but do not let your body fall asleep. It is sometimes easier to picture a room or comforting place in your minds eye.

If you are now in this place then you are successful and in your mind. Seeing as it is your mind the setting can change with mere thought and it is virtually impossible to judge the passage of time.

PS: To leave your mind simply wish to leave your trance.

He sat for a moment and went over the advantages of this in his head before laying on his bed in the most comfortable position possible on such a lumpy a mattress.

'I hope this works. It sounds to corny to be true.'

His mind slowly started to clear as he learned to blocked out sounds and a picture of an open field with a beautiful blue sky faded into his mind. A large but indistinct manor was also visible in the distance.

After gazing at the beautiful lanscape for what seemed like hours Harry slowly became aware that he was in his mind.

'What is this place. It's beautiful! I feel as if I'm home. This is weird. Wait a minute...I did it! Might as well get started on that monitering charm.'With that he willed himself from the trance and noticed that he'd been in a trance for nearly five hours. 'It did say it would take time, but this is ridiculous. It's almost 6 o'clock!'

His thoughts were interrupted by a loud rumble so he decided to go fix himself a very large snack.

'If meditation took this long I wonder how long the charm will take? Best to be prepared.'

With that he finished his meal of random fruits, vegetable, and leftovers and grapped more food for when he finished with the charm.

'So...I guess I will...Will...myself to my magical center while meditating.'

He laid on his bed again and began the meditation process again. This time instead of a field he was in a what appeared to be pure darkness.

'Where is my core? If i can't see it then I can't remove the damn monitor.' He felt as if he was moving in the darkness and wind was rushing by him as moved. Ahead of him a small ball of light the size of a bludger slowly appeared and he stopped before it.

'Where is the strip?'

After a few minutes of searching the ball over and over a line about centimeter wide slowly began to appear. It took another few minutes to find the darker section because the entire line was almost the same shade as the ball of magic. It became more visible to him when he found a small red line seperating the lightest section from the darkest. He slowly circled his core while imprinting the line into his memory.

It was in ten sections with a red line seperating the lightest section from the darkest section. It looked like a color wheel of white that slightly dimmed nearing the halfway mark and grew very slightly dimmer.

'Ok...I've found my core and the charm! All thats left to do is absorb one section by willing my magic into it.'

Concentrating on the darkest section he began to will his magic slowly into it. After a few moment he noticed the section fading away and eventually disappearing.

'That was relatively easy.' When he willed himself out of his head the clock on his desk was the only thing wisible in his room. 'Five in the morning!' His thoughts were again interrupted by an even louder rumble.

'I'm glad that I thought ahead.'

He quickly ate his food before a wave of exhaustion swept over him.

'It didn't say I would be this tired.', he thought as he fell into the bed.

Harry was asleep before his head hit the pillow.

AN: A little longer than the rest and thanks for the nice reviews.

PS: If you didn't get the descrition of what the charm looks like imagine a stick being bent into a perfet circle. Make ten sections of equal proportions(size for us simple folk) and there's your ten sectioned circle!
