Starting school and the second bond.

The training with the goblins had been the hardest 4 years of their lives, but both Harry and Lucy could see the benefit it had on their and each others bodies.

During the four years of training the goblins had taught them both how to properly wield all kinds of weapons and also how to forge their own weapons and armour, along with the goblin enchantments that went in to forging goblin weapons' that allowed them to be as revered as they are today. Harry had found that he was most skilled with a double sided battle axe and a broad sword. Lucy however was not defenceless she was just better suited to lighter weapons like the short sword, poisoned daggers and throwing knifes, she was also very skilled with a bow which Harry himself could not even work properly so he just left the long range stuff to her.

When they had finished the training and made their own weapons the goblins surprised them with an offer to visit and train with the dwarfs. Which if that was not surprise enough the knowledge that the dwarfs requested them was enough to send your head spinning.

The dwarfs were known much like the elves as a secluded group and had not been seen since even before the elves disappeared. For the dwarfs to request contact and to even make contact with another race was history in the making.

After agreeing to go Harry and Lucy had spent another 3 years with the Dwarfs learning their language more fluently and learning of their culture. They did not learn much magic from the dwarfs as they themselves did not use much anymore but they did learn how to mine for gems and metals as well as how to more properly purify them. The main point of their visit though was learning the culture as well as forming or re-forming an alliance. The dwarfs themselves did not reveal the reason for asking for the both of them to come until their last day with them where the head dwarf Thorbal Borrison came to them. He told them they had something for the guardian and when he was whole and his quest here was complete, he was to return to them and they would give him his true quest so that he may return order to where there has been no order in millennia.

7th November 1989

Lucy and Harry had left the dwarfs 3 days ago and were now in Paris. Having already transferred some of their clothes and belongings to the Hufflepuff château. They were now taking in the sights of muggle Paris before they went to Florence alley to book a portkey to Ad Scientiam Sorce so they could confirm their attendance for the beginning of the school term, which begins on the 15th of November. This is a pretty late start but then again they do not have any of the holidays that other schools have except a week at Christmas.

It was around 5pm now and they decided that they really should get to the alley for something to eat and to get their booking made for the next day before the shop that should the portkeys closed. They decided to take a short cut down a side alleyway when they stumbled across the one thing that really made Harry's blood boil.

Standing in the alley in front of them was a large male around 5ft 6 and a large but not fat build but the problem was not the man, no the problem was the young girl around 11 years old struggling in his grasp with blonde hair and blue eyes. From their point of view, they could clearly see that this girl was in distress as her long white sundress was torn and he hands were bound.

Just as the man began to reach, his hand into the sundress to fondle the young girl Harry made their presence known with an animalistic growl that was a cross between his wolf and dragon forms that were both calling for this mans head. As in both of these animals culture the young were never harmed if it cold be helped and this was in no way a fair situation.

When the man heard the growl he tightened his hold on the girl and looked around frantically only to come face to face with two pissed off currently 22 year olds who both had deadly swords drawn.

Lucy seeing Harry was in no way able to talk at the moment as he struggled to keep his emotions in check took control of the situation.

FIf I were you sir I would unhand that girl at once and allow her to come with us.F She stated in a commanding tone slightly laced with magic.

FOh Aye? An if I dn't wit er yeh goin te day aboot et eh? Yer just a bunch a kids wey metal sticks a bet yeh dn't ev'n no how ta yase thm.F The man retorted whilst subtly looking for an escape.

FWell if you are so sure why don't you come test us im sure you will learn more than we will.F Lucy said raising her blade with a glint in her eye.

FJst yeh run long now an forget what yeh saw.F That was just one brush off too far for Lucy as she flicked her wrist simultaneously summoning and throwing one of her knifes at the man who released his grip on the young girl to raise his had to cover the wound on his cheek.

While he was doing this Harry stepped forwards and pulled the young girl behind him out of the way. The man coming back to his senses charged at Lucy, who merely dodged and allowed him to slam head first into the wall behind her slashing her sword as she went, removing a certain body part that would hopefully prevent him from trying what he had on anyone else.

The sword was so sharp that it had been painless enough to allow the large man to pass out when he slammed his head into the wall and Lucy and Harry just looked at the crumpled bloody heap in distain until they felt a pull on their magic coming from behind.

Fleur had been so scared when the man had caught her as she took the short cut. It had happened many times before because she still could not fully control her veela allure. Men just jumped at her and started attacking, but every other time her father or a bodyguard had been around to prevent anything happening to her. This time she was alone she had insisted on it as she had wanted to try going out alone but she had lost track of time and when it began to get dark she had panicked and taken the short cut.

That was when the man struck pulling at her clothed and groping her body she was sure that this would be the day that she was violated she could not find a way out of it and her allure was still just adding oil to the fire as she began to panic.

I was just as he dress tore and he began to move his hand under the clothing that she heard it. It was a mix between a roar and a growl. She didn't care what it was really as long as it had stopped the man from violating her anything including death was better than that.

When the man tightened his grip stopping his progress he also turned so she was able to see what he did, and the sight was a sight to behold. There in front of her was a beautiful man and a woman both with pitch-black hair the man had startling glowing green eyes, and the woman had sapphire blue eyes almost the same colour as her own. Both of them were also holding rather impressive swords in their hands and just as she was about to look more closely there was a sudden movement from the woman and she was released and dragged behind the man just as the brute attacked the woman only to crumple in a heap against the wall.

She was so grateful to finally be saved and so relieved that her allure began to radiate to wards the two but that was not all she also felt a pull herself to wards the two. However, this pull was unlike the allure it was not lustful it was welcoming and loving just like returning to your own home after a long holiday.

FDo not worry we will not harm you and do not be scared by our next actions. Fthe woman said as the man and her both began to shrink or a better word would be de-age.

F Who or what are you two? FFleur replied.

F Ah that is a discussion that we will need to have in the future but there is little time at the moment all I will say is that we and I am sure you feel a pull towards each other, I am also sure you have realised that it is not the same as your veela allure. But stronger and comforting not forceful but we will need your father at least present when we explain things we will return you home now and then leave as we have other business this day. We will leave with you a floo address and if you and your father would be able, we will see you both tomorrow for dinner. You may of course bring your whole family just call for Mindy or Billy and tell one of them how many will be in your party so that the appropriate amount of food can be prepared. F Lucy explained she and Harry had both reverted to their 9 year old forms although they still looked at least now, they had reached the entrance to Florence alley a pub called the crooked broomstick.

When the got inside they headed for the fireplace and Harry stepped forward spoke for the first time.

F What is your name? I am Harry and this is Lucy. F He said with a gentle smile as he extended a hand for her to take.

F My name is Fleur, Fleur Delacour. F She replied extending he hand which Harry took and kissed the back.

F Well it has been nice talking to you if you give this not to your father and we hope to see you tomorrow about 5pm if that is suitable. F Fleur just nodded and took the paper before stepping into the fireplace and flooing home.

Harry and Lucy stepped into Florence alley changing as they did so into their 22 year old form's and headed to the portkey shop where they met a man called Samuel or call me Sam. After booking their portkey for tomorrow they both thanked Sam and headed home to, the château.

Next day 5th November 1989

Harry and Lucy woke up at 5am as they had become custom to and they went to the training room that they had asked their elves to make sure was present in every property they own. They spent an hour running as many times as they could around a 300m track then did 10mins sparing and 20mins fencing and another 30mins doing dodging and target drills.

At 7am they went to the dining room where Blinkie the cook at the château had prepared some fresh fruit, pastries, orange juice and some tea and coffee. Just as they were beginning to eat Elysia flashed in with Ariel and Athena in tow.

"Hey guys how was your first night in France?" Harry asked handing Ariel a bowl of mixed fruit and Elysia a bowl of berries while Lucy got some pastries for Athena since they seemed to be her favourites.

"It has been good the air has a different feel to it here than back home it is warmer and smoother in feel you should come join me some time." Elysia explained.

"Yeah Me and Ariel like the warmer air in the forests even if Ariel says she likes it colder I think she is happy here as well not to warm not too cold." Athena said as she finished her fruit.

"Well today you can just explore more and see what you can and if you meet any beings that need somewhere to stay remember to tell them they can come here or got to Britain to the sanctuary. We have a meeting to set up our schooling and then we have who we believe is our bond mate coming over with her family for dinner and you are all welcome to join us." Lucy said in reply.

"Another bond mate I have never heard of a three way soul bond." Ariel stated.

"Well Harry did say he saw another string attached to the middle of our it is just a miracle that we could find out who it was this early in life so we can all be together and experience life together." Lucy said surprisingly calm that she would be sharing Harry in life. Then again she herself had felt an attraction to Fleur when they had saved her.

At ten to eight Harry and Lucy changed to their 22 year old forms and apperated to the Sam's to get their 8 o'clock portkey.

"Hey guys just in time, here you go." Sam said handing over a metal circle kind of like a muggle Frisbee.

"That will take you there and return you here at 4 o'clock so just remember to be ready by then."

"Ok, thanks Sam we will see you in a while then." With that Harry felt a tug on his navel and a spinning sensation before he felt his feet return to the ground.

"Welcome to Ad Scientiam Sorce or as most call it now a days they just call it the source of knowledge. I am Headmistress Thyra and I have been for the past 80 years. So I know when people have the ability and drive to be accepted into my school but I also must ask why you would like to join here and why you do not show your true selves."

Harry could not believe that this woman was anywhere near the age she was making herself out to be but then he saw it her skin held and sparkle that only elder female vampires held she looked to be mid twenties but that sparkle told Harry that she held more knowledge than most people could hope to gain.

"We hide our true selves as if we did not people would not take us a seriously as when we are in this form. We have come here to inform you of our attendance, we are both nine years old and will attend in our true forms but we still look around 11. So unless you or we inform anyone no one shall know the difference and before you ask how it is we can change forms that is a secret that we will not tell, but you will probably know once I tell you that I am the new lord Emrys. I will be attending here under another of my titles that of Lord Harry Pervelle. Lucy I believe will attend under the pseudo name of Lucy Ferum, which is her true elvish name broken down to make a more plain name to keep her from the eyes of those who mean her harm. She will have a band on her robes whatever class level she is in displaying that she is under the protection of the lord Pervelle even if she does not need it, it will dissuade people trying things." Harry said with authority but still keeping a note of respect in his voice.

"Well I see that you are more than you seem mi lord of course you will be accepted you will still have to enter the same way as the other new students to determine the grade you will be in in each subject you pick from this list." Thyra said handing a list to each of them I will leave you to choose your classes and return in an hour and we can go to lunch before I give you a small tour and tell you about the living and class arrangements as well as the rules of the school." With that headmistress Thyra left them with the lists.

Harry began to read his and it read:

"Well I think I will be taking Magical control, spell craft, Runes, Magical being interaction, Potions, Blood magic and duelling for the weekdays and Rituals and charms at the weekends then if I get far enough or can not do the class I can change for something else like necromancy further on. What about you Lucy?" Harry asked after filling in his form and signing it.

"Well I think I will take Transfiguration, Herbology, Healing, and Enchanting, Potions, Magical Control and Magical Being interactions through the week and Charms and runes at the weekend. That way we are both learning what we like and we can teach each other to help get even further." Lucy said filling in her form and signing it before handing it to Harry to put with his on the head mistresses desk.

"Yes I believe we will have a rather busy life for the next few years." Harry said sighing giving Lucy a hug as the headmistress entered.

"Well if you are both ready lunch is being served If you would both just follow me." With that the headmistress lead them to lunch and then a short tour of the grounds and gave them a list of school rules to take home and memorise before their portkey activated taking them Back to Sam's where they returned home to get ready to receive their guests.

By the time Ten to five came Harry and Lucy were dressed to impress having been informed when they arrived that the entire Delacour family would be attending. Harry was wearing his new lord robes with each of his crests on his right breast with the Emrys crest slightly larger and in the centre with the others circling around it, but a blurring charm had been added to all but the Pervelle crest until he received an oath of secrecy from the guests. His robes were made from the finest acromantula silk and were jade green in colour with a silver outline. He was wearing a slightly darker green shirt under that and his appearance was finished with his head of house rings shown again with blurring charms as it was only required he wore the rings at formal meetings not that he displayed which house they were for.

Lucy was herself stunning both were in their 22-year-old forms and Lucy was wearing a long flowing ultra marine blue one-strap dress with a thin strip of silver diamantes along the strap and collar. She was also wearing the necklace he had bought her from the goblins for her birthday 4 years ago this being the first time she had had a chance to wear it. It was a Teardrop sapphire suspended from twists of sterling silver with small diamonds along one of the twists at each side adding to the allure suspended from an 18-inch chain so that it rests nicely in the centre of her chest just above the top of the dress.

When 5pm came they were standing side by side in the floo reception area with Harry slightly closer than Lucy as was required by custom.

First to arrive was Lord Delacour, then Fleur and then finally his wife with a young girl of around 5 who looked like a smaller version of Fleur except she had almost grey eyes Lord Delacour was well built and quite muscular with light brown hair and aqua blue-green eyes. His wife like her daughters had blond hair though hers was almost white though it was certainly not with age she had light brown eyes and with a slight pull from her aura Harry assumed she was part veela explaining her hair colour.

F Ah Good evening. This is everyone I presume?. F Harry asked of Lord Delacour.

F Yes, This is my family. F He replied stepping forward.

F Well, Let me introduce myself I am Lord Harry Pervelle and this stunning young woman to my right is Lucy. You must be Lord Delacour? F Harry said extending his hand and firmly shaking Lord Delacour's .

F That I am. I am Lord Cyrus Delacour. It is a pleasure to meet you both. F He said kissing the back of Lucy's hand after shaking Harry's.

F Allow me to introduce you to my family you of course know Fleur and this is my wife Appoline and our youngest Gabrielle. F

F It is a pleasure to meet you all. F Harry said after kissing the backs of the woman's hands and Lucy giving the kiss to each cheek.

F Please if you will all just call me Harry and follow me to the dining area where my wonderful elves have prepared us an equally wonderful meal and then we shall get to the reason we are all here. F Harry said holding out an arm for Appoline just as Cyrus did the same for Lucy.

F Only if you in turn call us Cyrus and Appoline Harry. F Cyrus said following with the two girls following behind.

The meal as expected was excellent and had a range of dishes including vegetarian just encase there were any amongst the guests, it did not appear that there were but the dishes were not wasted and merely added to the plates as accompaniments.

When the meal was finished Harry suggested that Lucy and the other girls go to the lounge whilst Harry and Cyrus went to Harry's office to discuss the matters properly. Harry and Lucy had already agreed that this was the best way so that problems could be dealt with instead of fuled by inter arguments.

Once Harry and Cyrus entered the office the fireplace immediately lit and Harry summoned Billy and asked him to get a glass of fire whiskey for Lord Delacour.

When Billy had returned Harry sat behind the desk and gestured for Cyrus to take a seat.

F Now I am sure you have been wondering why I arranged to have you here and you can relax it has nothing to do with claiming a life debt. F Harry said and at this, Cyrus visibly slumped a little in his seat and gained a relieved look.

F The reason is far older and more powerful and even I do not understand it all. I will try to explain as much as I can so please keep your questions to the end some things I will have to glide over as I wont reveal them without an oath of secrecy but I will do my best.

When I was younger, I was out with my parents in the forest on our property exploring when I heard a young girl crying I immediately went to see if I could help. What I found was Lucy in pretty bad shape she had been bound and had managed to escape I wont go in to the details as it is not my story to reveal but lets just say she was not returning to where she came from a few months later I found out that Lucy and I were soul bound. F At this, Cyrus let out a gasp of air a soul bond was one of the rarest and purest forms of magic to occur but he had never in his lifetime heard of one actually happening.

F But here is where you come in to this the same way I found we were soul bound I also found that there was a third in our bond, another who our souls were bound and was bound to the both of our souls. Meaning this soul bond contained three souls bound as one. It was not until last night that we found the other to whom we were bound and was bound to us. Your daughter Fleur is the final piece of our bond. If you are willing to continue to take me seriously and listen as well as give an oath not to reveal what I say and show you I will be able to hopefully wipe out most of your fears. F

By this time, Cyrus' mind was spinning what should he do. But the man in front of him had asked him here and had laid it all on the table so the least he could do was give this oath at least then he could have all the information as he was not a rash man so he would hear all of the facts before making a decision.

F I Lord Cyrus Delacour Do so swear on my magic to keep secret what I am to learn in this room from Lord Harry Pervelle unless given his leave to reveal the information so mote it be. F

F So mote it be. Thank you Cyrus now I can tell you who I truly am. I Lord Harry James Potter Pervelle Black Gryffindor Ravenclaw Hufflepuff Slytherin Emrys do swear on my life and magic that what I reveal in this room to Lord Cyrus Delacour is true to the best of my knowledge. So mote it be. F When Harry finished there was a flash of light signalling the sealing of the full oath signalling it was a true oath and that Harry was telling the truth.

Harry then stepped around the table and reverted to his 9 year old 11 looking form and spoke again.

F This is my true form Cyrus and Lucy is the same. We are both immortal and can switch between any age we want we both have been given a large knowledge transfer so we are more knowledgeable than we look which is why we like to take our 22 year old form to be taken seriously. I hope this wiped your fear of the age difference, next I would like to tell you that when and if Fleur does decide to join us she will also become like us immortal with the ability to change between ages and we will also give her a knowledge transfer at some point. I am the last heir of Merlin and the first true pureblooded heir. I am born from all of his direct lines recombining which means I have taken on the great duty of restoring and ensuring magic is kept in balance and not abused. Lucy willingly joined me in this task and with your permission and blessing I would like for us all to get to know each other and such. I will not take Fleur away from you and still want her to live her life as she wants but I do want to tell her what I know so that she can make her own decision. Finally, what I believe is weighing on your mind most is the completion of the bond I will tell you now that Lucy and I have not completed the bond and I would not complete it with Fleur until she was ready and defiantly not for a few years. F

With his explanation, finished Harry returned to his 22-year-old form, asked Billy to get another fire whiskey for Cyrus, and told him to take his time thinking he would not be rushed in his thoughts.

Cyrus was shocked gobsmacked even. What this boy or man had just told him was un heard of but it was true even without the oath Cyrus could feel a familiar bond to the young lad in front of him. It was weak but it was there and he was sure, when he acknowledged the bonding it would strengthen to the same as his and Fleur's. The idea of getting to know one and other was a good one but Fleur would be starting school in a few weeks so there would not be much time but then it was a true soul bond so it would not take much. Yes he would accept this and be happy for his little girl he had already had Appoline use her full allure on him so he knew that the young man in front of him was immune so it was not just a way to get a veela bride as he had first believed. No the young man in front of him was honourable and he would be welcomed to the family happily if that was Fleur choice.

F I believe you have been wise and made a good decision let us return to the lady's and begin getting to know each other. F Cyrus said extending his hand, which Harry gladly shook.

F Yes let us return Lucy should have finished explaining as well and probably a lot better than I did. F Harry laughed as he lead Cyrus to the lounge where they met the ladies and spent a few hour just talking and getting to know one and other before Gabrielle fell asleep and an open invitation was extended both ways with Harry and Lucy agreeing to come for dinner the next day.

"Well I think that went better than I thought it would." Harry said to Lucy as they sat with Lucy curled up to his side in front of the fire.

"Yes it did and I am glad even after that one meeting I finally feel whole and complete." Lucy murmured contently as she drifted to sleep with Harry giving her a light kiss on the lips before following her.

AN:

Ok people so that is another chapter Happy New Year to you all and I hope it is a good one. I thank you all for reading and ask the lady's reading to forgive me if I made a pants attempt at describing a dress and necklace I did try to find the names of dresses but I couldn't so just tried to describe it the best I could. What took me so long to update you may be asking and the answer is I have spent weeks even before the last chapter trying to introduce Fleur. I just couldn't find a way and then I read another story and edited the idea a bit I do feel bad that I have introduced all the new people so far as injured in some way but it was the easiest way to do it and I apologise. I would like to again thank you for reading and inform you there will be a time skip either in the next chapter or more probably the one after that and that will take us to the goblet of fire year. So enjoy and good night.
