Chapter 3

Author's Note: First of all a HUGE thanks to all those of you who reviewed. You have no idea how much it means to me knowing that there are people out there who are reading and liking my story.

I'll be uploading as often as possible. I already have till chapter 5 written and I'm almost done with chapter 6. All I have to do is copy them on the computer and upload them. Unfortuately, school has started so my time is very limited. I'll try to upload at least once a week. I already have all the story planned out :D

Alia: Thanks for your review! I'm hoping the amount of reviews will start rising soon. I promise you'll get to know who the mates are very soon. Sorry for the shortness of the chapters. I'll try to make them longer :)

Rainbow2007: Glad you liked it! :)

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I do not own Harry Potter and his fellow characters in any way. They're all J.K Rowling's. Do I actually have to do this every chapter? -_- -_-

Now on to Chapter 3!

Harry had just threw himself on his bed after having spent a very bad day in the company of the Dursleys. He hadn't been resting for five minutes when every part of his body started to feel as if it was on fire. He tried desperately not to cry out so as not to alert the Dursleys. Harry finally managed to get on his feet and grab his wand.

With his last remaining strength he managed to conjure his Patronus and send it to Ron telling him to come to him as soon as possible because he desperately needed help. That done Harry gave up on trying to stay awake until Ron arrived and with a thump he fell on the floor, unconcious.

When Harry came to he realised that he wasn't in his room at the Dursleys anymore and when he put on his glasses he realised that he was in Ron's room. Getting up from the bed he started to make his way downstairs only to be stopped by Ron who had been going up. "Harry", started Ron, "I think it would be best if you go back to my room. I need to show you something." Harry noticed how serious Ron had sounded and decided to follow him back to his room and hear what he had to say.

Ron didn't waste anytime beating around the bush. "You're a veela Harry", he said. Harry's first response was to laugh hysterically until he was out of breath. "Very funny Ron", he managed to wheeze out between laughs. "A veela…were do you come up with this stuff?" he asked still letting out occasional laughs. Harry started to get a little confused at Ron's still serious face. "Seriously mate, loosen up…I got the joke, why aren't you laughing too?" he asked Ron.

Still looking serious Ron repeated what he had told Harry before. "You're a Veela Harry". Harry didn't laugh so kuch this time and when he did it sounded uneasy. "Ron, it was funny the first time. Now it's just getting creepy", he said. Ron only shook his head. "It's not a joke, Harry", he said, "that's why you were in so much pain yesterday. You were going through your transformation. I know what you went through because I went through that too, Harry. I'm a veela now." With that he let his veela wings come out, shocking Harry who till now had still been thinking it was some ugly joke. "If you don't believe me, go in the bathroom and look at yourself in the mirror", said Ron.

That is exactly what Harry did. Running as fast as he could, Harry opened the bathroom door and immediately ran over to the mirror. Harry almost screamed at what he saw. He started to back away from the bathroom mirror repeating the same thing over and over again, "It can't be, it can't be…" Harry saw a glimpse of Ron in the mirror and turned around to face him.

"How is this possible?" he asked. Ron sighed. "You have veela blood mixed with your human blood", started to explain Ron, "No one can know for sure how you happen to have veela blood. You could have got it from your parents but that is very unlikely. The most probable explanation is that some ancestor of yours married or had an affair with a veela, they had kids and that blood has now been passed on to you. That's what happened in my case. Listen, Harry I know this might look bad at first but it's not going to seem like such a big deal once you get used to it. The first thing you have to do though is look at yourself again by using that mirror and admit, at least to yourself, that you have changed", finished Ron.

Harry nodded weakly and moved closer to the bathroom mirror. When he looked at himself he was shocked all over again by how different he looked. His hair now looked neat and in place instead of his usual dishevelled hair that always refused to listen to a brush. Running his hand through it he also realised it had turned soft instead of feeling dry and sometimes oily. A welcome change was how drastically his body had changed. From looking skeletal thin to looking very well built and a bit muscular. The biggest shock of all though, was understandably, his wings.

His wings were wide and their colouring fantastic. They were a light gold with touches of white and silver. Having looked at every difference in his body, he turned to Ron. "I know next to nothing about veelas. Can you tell me what you know?"

Ron smiled at hearing this. "Of course, Harry. I'll tell you everything I know but I must tell you…it isn't much. Every veela has a mate and when strong enough, a veela gets to have two mates to help him or her keep their powers in check. I have no doubt that you are powerful enough to fall in this category. When someone with veela blood goes through the process of transforming, they get a stronger sense of smell. This will help you find your mates sooner. Once you find your mates, your inner veela will feel as if you have to court your mates. You don't necessarily have to do it but if you do, the wings are there to help you. That's why the wings are so beautiful. They are there to help you impress your mates.

I think you have noticed how soft your wings are. They are like that so that you can…let's say…'cuddle' your mate. The wings, though, turn from soft as clouds to sharp as razors the moment the veela feels as if their mates are in danger. That's not the only thing that happens when a veela feels his mate is in danger. Veelas will also sprout large, deadly claws to be able to protect their mates. I'm warning you that your mate could be a femaile but it could also be a male. If it's a male he might still get pregnant so you should be careful. Last thing I'd like to point out is how you've turned more muscular since your transformation. This is because you happen to be a dominant veela so you can't be too slim or you'll be mistaken for a submissive one. Do you have any more questions?" finished Ron.

"Only one", stated Harry. "How the hell am I supposed to find, not one, but two mates?" Ron laughed at this. "Don't worry Harry. I have the perfect plan of where we could start looking for our mates. You know of the feast that's taking place at Hogwarts to celebrate the second year since Voldemort's defeat?" Harry nodded so Ron continued. "That's taking place next week. All those who helped defeat Voldemort or where there during the war are invited. That's a lot of people all together so it's our chance to look for our mates."

Harry smiled at hearing this and together, he and Ron started making plans for the upcoming feast.
