Beast speak and Morning Star Morning after...

The next day after everyone was awake they all met in Potter manor family room where Lily pulled Harry and James into a teary hug.

"Harry, after what Merlin told us I just want to make sure that there is no doubt in your mind that we both do truly love you. After we have to leave you we will continue watching over you and we know you will do us proud no matter what choices you make as long as you believe they are the right choice." Said Lily whilst James just nodded as the three-way hug continued with not a dry eye in sight until both men surreptitiously dried their eyes cleared their throats and broke apart with small smile.

"Well, Hmhm. First, let me give you this Harry. It is your heir ring and makes you Lord Potter when I die. Now let's make sure that Dumbledore cannot find us, we will move to the cottage in Godrics Hollow on the Halloween next year this will mean that no one should know about the location or existence of Potter manor as it has always been. Now I will show you how we Potter's Masters of defence protect our home." With that, James Moved to the Potter family shield that adorned the wall above the fireplace, placed his hand in the centre, and recited the Potter family motto as the shield drew some blood to confirm that he was a Potter. If he was anyone else then he would have been poisoned by the Potter poison, a poison that a Potter long ago invented to kill all those without a specific gene that all Potter's possessed that no other did.

"Defensionem, praesidio et custodia Cum Damnasse" intoned James; Harry thanks to Merlin was able to understand that it meant 'Defence, Protection and Loyalty With hold'.

As James finished the wall began to split to reveal a large circular room, with a crystalline obelisk in the centre inscribed with runes.

"We are in the very centre of the house now Harry even if it doesn't look like it this house was built as far as I know by the first Potter's it was built with this room on top of two intersecting ley lines. That means that unlike normal wards, these wards are not only powered by the power given to a ward stone by the person who recharges it every ten years or the ambient magic in the heir but what is like a muggle main power line of magic. It is a limitless expanse of raw magical energy. This is a Potter secret along with the manor itself. The Potter wards have never been broken when activated, but then again no one has even come up against them in at least a millennium, so most have forgotten about this manor and its wards. The only ones to know about the location and power of the wards are the Goblins, Dwarfs and Elves who helped to build it and have kept a friendly or non-hostile relationship with the Potter's and in return, the Potter's land will always been seen as neutral ground to these species and a sanctuary to them and all magical creatures. When the wards are fully activated and not in the state of hibernation, it is now. Only the basic non-fire, flood, wind damage and un-plottable and fidelius wards active. But now" said James with a wide gleeful and enthusiastic grin.

"Now we are going to be the first Potter's in a millennium to activate out defences to their full potential that you will see in just a second." said James as he sliced his palm and coated a particular rune Harry recognised as Ancient Goblin that said 'Activate Full Defence'. As the blood completely covered the rune Harry felt a thrum of power begin to appear and grow, as it grew runes all over the obelisk began to glow and activate and with a final blast of power, the magic in the room stabilized and began a steady hum. The wards were built to defend against any threat from the air ground or sub-terranian so it was not just like normal wards a ward wall it was a ward bubble or sphere that went above and below the manor. Anyone who tried to apperate or floo in without permission granted only by the lord or heir were transported to the arctic with no memory of how they got there or of Potter manors existence or location.

"Now there is no way for Dumbles to get to us." James said with a happy smile.

"Now since you now have more understanding of the world around you I think it is time to introduce you to the other residents' of the Potter grounds. It will also allow you to try out your Beast speaking ability with a wide range of different animals Magical and non magical." Said Lily as she began to guide Harry to the back door that opens out on to a wide-open area that leads to the Potter's wood as the forest is named. The entire estate grounds of Potter manor is very expanse with a total area of 50,000sq Metres, This includes the manor, lake, forest.

When they got outside James began to lead them to where he knew the least dangerous animals were so that they could try Harry's ability out without any danger. They walked to the edge of the forest where they spotted some foxes and Harry decided to try them first.

"Hello there, my name is Harry what's yours?" Harry asked and just before Lily told him he spoke plain English, he turned around smiling and said,

"His name is Flash and this is his family Jade the small green eyed one is his daughter and the larger one is Fay his wife." Lily and James just stood with mouth open.

"Harry how did you know that, you spoke plain English and the foxes never even made a noise." asked Lily.

"Well I just spoke they heard me and then they spoke back to me in my head" He said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world." Lily just shook her head and they moved on to other animals. By lunchtime, they had visited and spoke to many animals including; a herd of unicorns, a griffin, a pair of Hippogriff, a couple of wolfs a badger, a centaur herd and a few others. They were just heading back to the manor for lunch when Harry heard a muffled sniffling and decided to fall behind and try to find out who or what it was. He started to hear it louder and decided it was a person and it was to his right so he decided to follow the sound to find out what was wrong. As he neared the origin of the sound he decided it was crying so hurried his pace and as he appeared in a clearing, he saw a very beautiful young girl, she had long silky black hair and smooth looking ivory coloured skin that seemed to glow in the slight sunlight. As he approached, he must not have been quiet as the girl stopped crying and looked up and the most beautiful Sapphire blue eyes he would ever see met Harry's own but what saddened him was they were fearful and sad. As he continued to look at her he saw that she had pointed ears and a small smile appeared on his face as he realised that he had a way to communicate with her that may put her at ease,

*Hello young one what is the matter and where are your parents* Harry asked in High Elven.

This did not seem to put her at ease so he tried again.

*Please, I mean you no harm I would like to help you. Nothing in this forest or grounds will harm you this is Potter's wood a Neutral Place and a sanctuary for all beings. I am Harry Potter will you let me help you?* he asked easing a little closer until he saw her nod and he wrapped his arms around her and allowed her to cry into his shoulder. He felt a pang in his chest and swore whoever caused this little girl so much pain would pay for it after he had learned more magic. He continued to let her cry and stroked her hair until he noticed there were bruises on her wrists that looked like they were from ropes as if someone had bound her wrists. That was when he felt something stir inside him. His blood began to boil and he knew the feeling he had felt it before but not to this extent. When he did magic he felt a trickle but now with his anger he felt the magic thought his body waken and begin to pulse forming a visible aura of pure gold and his eyes lit with an internal fire making the green seem to glow like emeralds in the sun. He looked down when he noticed the crying had stopped to see that the girl was staring at him with wide awe filled eyes but at the same time she looked fearful, which only aided Harry's anger. He tried to calm down and took her wrists in her hands he felt a spark coarse through his body and thought he saw her eyes open wide but ignored it and asked,

*What is your name?*

*MMy nname is Luciferum but I like to be called Lucy* she said with a slight blush. Harry smiled and calmed down a little.

*Well Lucy and I ask who did this to you* he said some of his anger returning when he held up her wrists. She fearfully looked around and then remembered Harry had told her she was safe, and as he held her, she felt it as well.

*It was my uncle he had me tied down to my bed and he was going to let other men do things to me. But I managed to get away and I remembered my mum long ago talking about a place where if we were ever in trouble we could go to be safe. I just ran I did not know where but I knew if I went to the east I would get there, I have been walking for days. When you found me I was giving up hope that I could make it but this must be the place, I must have made it.* she cried and Harry pulled her closer to his chest telling her she was safe here. His anger flared at the implications of what she said. His mind went through what her uncle could have had planned and his magic burst forth from him sending a shock wave through the earth that made the wards flare to life. When the wards recognised the magic as Potter's they took it as a call for help and sent the information of the location to the current Lord Potter informing him that sanctuary lockdown had been invoked within the wards. By this part of the ward, system activating a beacon was activated as well that told every being within the wards that no violence would be allowed until sanctuary had been lifted, and that any violence would result in dismissal from Potter's wood forever. Every being within knew what this beacon meant and ceased their hunting and returned to their homes until the beacon was turned off.


Meanwhile...

Lily and James had continued walking not noticing that Harry was not present and when they got to the end of the woods and turned to ask Harry if he enjoyed the day they finally noticed he was not there.

"Where is he James?" asked Lily.

"I don't know but he will be alright nothing within Potter's wood would harm a Potter, or could for that matter the wards being fully active means that any attempt of harm to a Potter results in death. Come on we can get Billy and Dilly to bring lunch out here to us along with a picnic blanket and we can wait for Harry to come out he is probably just talking to some more animals." So, they called the house elves to bring lunch and the blanket and sat down to begin lunch.

Not ten minutes later, they felt a massive surge of magical energy and saw the wards flare they could hear an alarm coming from inside the house and James Head of house ring began to glow and pulse with light. James' face paled dramatically. He had read all of the Potter journals. Every heir was required to do this so that they knew exactly what those alarms and the glowing of his ring meant. As he was given the information of the location of the problem he shot to his feet, turned to Lily, and with his wand out began to enter the forest.

"Hurry Lily that sound means sanctuary has been invoked within the grounds, my ring has told me where but the fact that it is pulsing means it is a direct member of the Potter family that the wards have invoked to protect and Harry and I are the only direct members left alive." James said in a panicked tone, as he raced into the woods with Lily on his tail. As they approached the location James slowed down as the felt the magic in the air become thicker and thicker, Making it seem as if they were wading through water when they were only a few metres away they stopped and their mouths dropped open in shock at the sight they saw. There was Harry sitting with his back against a tree with a beautiful girl in his arms who was crying. That was not what got their attention, No what got their attention was the fact Harry was glowing with a visible gold aura. His eyes were glowing an emerald green, But James could also see that it was rage pure un diluted rage that made his eyes glow and he had no idea who could make Harry who would rather get even than mad have so much rage leaking off him at the moment. As Lily went to step, forward James grabbed her arm to stop her and motioned to himself. James walked forward and as he did he was noticed, he saw the girl look at him and tense in his sons arms gripping his shirt tighter in her hands.

"Harry what's wrong" asked James and he saw that his son relaxed a bit when he saw it was his father but he still tightened the grip his arms had of the little girl slightly.


Present…..

Harry looked up to see his mother and father standing not far from him.

"This girl is called Lucy and she will be staying with us for a while. She can stay in the guest room that connects to mine. Billy!" said Harry. Billy appeared with a pop and replied with a bow.

"Yes master Harry what can Billy do for you sir?"

*Billy you will not call me master you can just call me Harry unless we are in public and you really have to just like I have said before. Now I would like you to meet Lucy. She will be staying in the guest room that is attached to my room I would like you to set that room up for her and ask Mindy if she could get some clothes that would fit Lucy as she has nothing with her but what she is wearing." Said Harry to the little elf who looked like he was going to faint.

"Yes My Lord Harry it will be done." Replied Billy as he popped away.

*Tell me, how did I get from him calling me master to my Lord Harry when I was trying to get him to treat me more as family or a friend than a master* Asked Harry to a now giggling Lucy.

*House elves were made to work for the high elves they were bound to one to give them power of their own. The high elves bestowed some upon wizards and they ended up breeding them so all old wizarding families will probably have some. The Potter's are known to be the first to receive house elves but house elves know that when anyone speaking this language gives an order it must be obeyed or the magic binding them will be destroyed and they will die.* Said a calmer Lucy, Who was still clinging to Harry and would not let go.

"Well" said Harry to a confused mother and father, "I think we should go and get some lunch now."

Lucy nodded and Harry and Lucy stood up with Lucy gripping Harry's hand. It was clear Lucy could understand some English at least. "Can you speak English Lucy? It would make a few things easier." James asked. To which Lucy stiffened and moved slightly behind Harry whilst still gripping his hand but nodded her hear none the less.

"I think we should just concentrate on dinner dad then I can explain whilst Lucy has some rest" Said Harry in a tone that shocked James as I brokered no argument.

They reached the house where Mindy popped in and bowed which annoyed Harry and handed a folded up nightgown to Lucy who took it with one hand. "There is being more clothes for Miss Lucy in her room Lord Harry," she said.

"Thank you Mindy and you don't need to call me Lord I'm not a Lord yet just call me Harry even though i speak the Elvin language would rather think of you all as friends or family. So pass it on to all the elves only in public when it may be necessary should you call me lord or master but never when it is just family around." finished Harry as he began to walk to the dining hall.

After something to eat Harry took Lucy up to her room, allowed her to change, and then waited with her until she fell asleep. He knew she would not want to be left in bed alone. Before she went to sleep Harry took her wrists one in each hand and imagined them, healing leaving behind no pain or bruises and to his shock and thrill it worked. Lucy was shocked and excited as well she would not have a reminder of what could have happened she was safe here. "Thank you Harry" she said and kissed his cheek, and with that, she was asleep.

When Harry returned down stairs, he was shepherded to the family sitting room where they had been that morning and there he explained hearing a noise and then finding Lucy and her tale of what happened. After hearing the tale, James was shaking with a rage similar to that of what Harry had been feeling at the time. Now he could understand why Harry had been the way he was as all Potter's had the same built in tendencies of their motto they would Defend those who could not defend themselves, Protect those that needed protection and are Loyal to their friends and family until betrayed.

"Well what will we do with her?" Questioned Lilly, she knew immediately she had not phrased her question correctly as two burning pairs of eye focused on her and she had to shrink from their gaze.

"DO with her, DO with her. You will DO nothing with her. She will stay in that room as long as she likes and she will stay here as long as she likes and she may leave or do whatever she likes within reason." Harry said in a voice laced with anger.

"I'm sure that your mum did not mean it that way Harry," James said with a look at Lily that said she better not have meant it that way. Lily just shook her head negative.

"She only meant should we contact anyone about her. My answer to that Harry, before you speak is 'no we will not tell anyone about her until you have become Lord of your houses'. By then you will have the goblins on your side and you will be able to contact the elves with enough influence that you will be able to keep her out of danger of them taking her back to her uncle." Said James as his anger slowly ebbed away as he knew nothing can be done at this time.

"Now lets start your Occlumency training here are three books you must read before we begin." James handed the books to Harry who studied the titles 'Beginners Guide to Occlumency', 'Occlumency for the Advanced: Mindscapes', 'Active Defences of Occlumency' well this would keep him busy for the night.

"The first book gives you guides of how to get to your mind through meditating. You have to be there to be able to view your mind, to be able to shield it. The second one tells you how to enter your mind to organise your memories and create a mindscape that is like an imaginary land within your mind that you control. This will allow you to block out master Legilimens like Dumbles and Voldemort. The last only works if you have a mindscape since it shows you how to create active defences, like animals in your mind to attack anyone who enters. Traps to injure or 'trap' your enemy in your mind where you can then question them or reverse the probe whilst keeping them in your mind to prevent them from blocking you out there are more things but let's just keep it plain just now." By now, it was around 8:30 at night so Harry bade his parents good night and went and got changed in to his pyjamas and then walked in to Lucy's room where he sat in the comfortable chair beside her bed and began to read the books whilst keeping a watchful eye on Lucy. James Turned off the sanctuary protocols and went to bed to think over everything that had happened that day. He knew tomorrow was only going to be the same.

AN:

Hi Guys this was a longer chapter that I typed up at my work because I had nothing better to do. It does not contain much information, But the reason it is long was to introduce a new character to the story I decided it was a good time to do it. Originally I was going to have this chapter just be quick Occlumency then gringotts but thought what the hell show him using his beast speech and Elvin and introduce a new character at the same time. For all those wondering this story will end up as

Fleur x Harry x Lucy. That is the paring. Well I hope you enjoyed next chapter will be showing you his Occlumency mindscape and going to gringotts in quite a lot of detail hopefully.
