LR: Hello everyone. I'm really excited about the responses I'm getting. But I would definitely love some reviews, as I forgot to mention, reviews tell me how my readers are feeling about the story so please review. So last time I left out some terms that I probably should have mentioned, just in case. So here they are.

Terms:

Abjure: Renounce

Patron: Boss

Fils Patron: Son of boss, the boss's son

Regis: Ruling, royal

And again I don't own Harry Potter… but maybe if I wrote a sympathetic letter begging…..*considers this option* Ok well while I think about this on with the story.

Harry quickly made his way down the steps, his friends behind him. The stairs spiraled down into the depths of the palace where to where the sanctuary and chambers were held. The trek was sort of a long one and normally, no one used the steps, but since Harry could not use any of his powers before his ascension* this was his only option.

"Harry, two minutes." Hermione's voice was slightly frantic, the worrier of the group, she had been against Harry even going out today. Luna squeezed Hermione's shoulder, attempting to calm her.

"He'll be fine." Luna smiled; as she said this they had reached the chambers. Lily and James stood in the middle of the anti-chamber room. A small smile on Lily's face and a slight frown on James'

"You're late Harry." James stated glancing briefly at his watch.

"Sorry dad." James nodded and said no more on the topic but gestured to the door on Harry's right.

Harry looked at the door steeling himself for what lie ahead. No one ever talked about their ascension or anything that happened inside the….. but everyone knew that it could either be quick and painless or it could be long and torturous. Harry was hoping for the latter but with his luck he knew it was unlikely.

Harry smiled at his parents then at Luna and Hermione took a deep breath and walked into the chamber. The door closed and locked behind him. He didn't feel it but he knew that wards against spies and outside magic were in place, also a locking charm, one that only Harry could undo when he had ascended.

Harry breathed out and in deeply, trying to relax his tense muscles. There was no way to tell time in here, he didn't know if he had minutes or only seconds. The time seemed to move slowly, everything seemed slow, even his breathing.

He looked around the normally locked room it was a decent size with shelves built into the walls, the shelves held tons and tons of books, grimoires mostly. Ancient spells and secrets created by his family and of course the life story of the Wiccan who wrote it. There was a pentagram carved into the floor, sigils etched into the triangles of the star and atop every point of the star. There was a circle of words before the pentagram, the words were made up of Latin and ancient Sumerian, and most of which Harry definitely could not read.

He walked towards the shelves deciding to read a book when it happened. There was a sharp twinge at the back of his neck followed by a tingling sensation running from his fingers and toes up. At first it was light like walking in a electromagnetic field then it got harsher like someone was shocking him repeatedly, he tried to stay upright as the pain lanced through him. It pulsed through every part of his body like lightning, and then came the fire, burning through him yet leaving him oddly cool. He didn't know how he got onto the floor but the last thing he could recall was how oddly warm it was.

Hooded figures strode about, converging towards one spot, lying in this position he couldn't quite see what everyone was walking towards. With some effort he stood. The hooded figures towered over him, there were 13 of them and the stood in a circle a few feet away, one of them was talking but he was too far away, with even more effort than it took to stand he walked over to the circle. As he got closer the circle broke and four hooded figures stepped forward, pulling back their cloaks and revealing themselves. Within this smaller circle there were two males and two females. It was one of these females that spoke first. She had long black hair and amber eyes, her skin was the color of coffee and there were swirls and flowery design patterns framing her face and her hands and in the middle of her forehead was a ruby.

'We are gathered here because the Elementa have asked us.'

'Then let them step forward.' This time one of the men spoke. He was slender but made fully of muscle, his hair was braided down his back, and although it was blond it had this green tint to it. He had a booming voice and at his words there was a stir in the larger circle behind them and four others stepped forward. He walked towards the first four in the middle with the others, trying to better understand what exactly was going on.

The new four pulled back their hoods as well then one by one the stepped forward and announced themselves.

'I, Arausio of Water'

'I, Agni of Fire'

'I, Ather of Air'

'And I, Gaia of Earth'

The first four bowed their heads in acknowledgment and the other female spoke.

'We the Clave recognize you and bid you speak.' The three Elementa looked towards Gaia who nodded and stepped forward.

'Millennia ago when this world was still new you granted us the ability to share our gift with the humans on this planet, and we chose four who we thought would honor our gifts and create more beauty within this world. And we were right, but the descendants of our chosen are failing to uphold the bond we created.' Gaia stepped back, having no more to say. The second female spoke again.

'And what is it that you wish us to do?' Her voice was warm and had the motherly tone of being pleased and disapproving all at once. She was the slightest of the four, she was tanned, with straight black hair, her eyes were almond shaped, bright blue and knowing. Arausio stepped forward.

'We wish to be granted interference.' The last male in the group spoke finally. He was hard to see for he seemed to glow from the inside his hair was brown and he had green eyes. He was thickly built and tall. His voice was warm as well but thick and when he spoke it felt like his words were inside you warming you.

'Did we not agree that when you gifted these creatures there would be no interference?' Arausio nodded his agreement.

'Yes, but there has been. Apep has not kept his word.' At this all the figures turned towards the Blond haired man. Apep looked at all of them, his face betraying nothing.

'I did not interfere; I simply revealed something that could not be seen at the moment. The fates assured that it would reveal itself eventually, with or without me.' He looked at the other three standing with them as if asking them to find fault in his words. The first woman spoke.

'Apep is right, the fates never lie.' She looked towards the Elementa. 'Is there more?' They looked at each other before Gaia spoke again.

'The Aurelius.' Murmurs within the group broke out. Apep snorted.

'I have the power to create whatever I choose, with or without your permission. And I did not create them the sought me out, sought to gain more power over your precious original four.' Agni snarled and Gaia bristled.

'This is my world! My Creation! You have no right!' She stepped forward in challenge. Apep hissed at her in warning.

'Stop!' The first woman and the second man spoke simultaneously. They looked at each other for a moment, seeming to communicate wordlessly, and then they nodded. The second spoke.

'Responsibility falls into question, but this, is not a meeting for such a thing nor are we a council that makes such decisions.' He looked towards the first. 'Kali.'

'A punishment must be given to insure your gifts do not corrupt their carriers. You are allowed your retribution on your gifted's descendants." Every member of the clave had looked towards the two as they spoke and when they were done they nodded the assent. The Elementa bowed, and all went dark. Make sure it is a wise one.'

When Harry woke he was in his bed, his eyes opened and it hurt, he shut them quickly groaning. That's when he heard the shuffle of feet.

"Oh, the master is awake." He groaned again at his maid's sharp tone. "Oh sorry young master, I've sent for the healer and your parents as well." This time she spoke in a lower tone.

A few seconds later the door opened and people poured in, firstly the healer Poppy, who quickly ran her hands over Harry, making a small noise with her mouth, she poured an indistinct steaming liquid down his throat, and although it tasted gods awful it did not burn. As soon as Harry swallowed he felt much better and chanced at opening his eyes again. This time it did not hurt, and he looked up to see his parent's concerned faces.

"Oh Harry dear, are you alright? How are you feeling?" Lily quickly rushed over to his side sitting next to him on the bed and stroking his hair.

"Fine mum, I feel fine." James joined them sitting on the opposite side.

"He's not a child Lil." James smiled down at Harry.

"Oh I know but still, it was so long." 'So long?' Harry thought, how long had he been out?

"How, how long was it?" His throat caught on the word making him fear that he had been out longer than a few days.

"Two weeks!" Said a booming voice; the doors flying open, as his Uncle Sirius walked in. "You beat your old man by a week you know." James frowned.

"And who are you calling old? We're the same age." Sirius put on a confused face.

"James I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about." He walked over to Harry's bed and beamed at him. "And how is the beloved prince doing?" Harry rolled his eyes at his uncle's childishness.

"I'm fine uncle." Sirius' face turned somber as he placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Good I'm glad to hear it." Lily and James smiled too, their smile expressing the same sentiment. They were glad Harry was alright.

LR: So yeah this was probably a boring chapter and I'm sure you guys were hoping to see Draco but alas, he just didn't fit in. I mean this is over 1500 words so yeah. But he'll definitely be in the next chapter and that should be up shortly as well.

So some of you might be confused as to what that whole scene had to do with anything or who those people were, but if you're paying attention and I hope you are, than you might have some clues as to things that might be up and coming in this story. Again I'm not 100% on where I'm taking this, I'm just writing as I go along and as long as it's relevant.

So if you have any ideas or suggestions Review, and if not just review anyway, because it makes me feel happy inside. And thanks to those who have added me on their fave's and alerts.
