The Green Eyed Monster is the term referring to an individual who is so consumed with jealousy that they will lose all sense of reality. Is jealousy a bad emotion? In a sense, yes it is. Jealousy is an extension of resentment. Whether it's resenting the fact that this person has more money, power and fame than the other. Maybe it's the unrequited love that had fallen for somebody else, or it could be the significant other that you can't seem to handle associating with anybody else other than you. Whatever the reason, jealousy tends to have the opposite desired effect. The Green Eyed Monster? That is a fitting term for such a strong emotion, because the person consumed by jealousy could very well become a monster themselves.

A forest could be called tranquil. The dew coming off the leaves in the morning, do to the nightly mist. The forest creatures as they go about their daily routines without a care in the world. The saying goes if a tree falls in the middle of the forest can you hear it scream. The same could be said to a person tied to a tree.
"I'm mean really? Three weeks my Puddin' as to deal with that little harpy slut." Luna breathed in deeply. Mr. J and her were going to be together tomorrow on the train. If she still doesn't get the message then accidents do tend to happen around Hogwarts. "Thank you sir for listening to a teenage rant. I know that we can get melodramatic at times, but you can't really blame us. We not only have all those hormones running through us, but we also have all this pent up magic trying to just unleash itself." Luna looked up at the wided eyed man tied to the tree. His face was contorted into a grotesque image. His mouth was formed into an unnatural smile that took up half his face. Luna beamed. "That took less time. I must inform Mr. J. tomorrow that we should move to phase three. Bud! Lou!"
Two purplish monsters came pouncing onto Luna licking her face. She laughed at her two crumbled horned snorkacks. They were about the size of a lion, with purplish scales. They had wide mouths with razor sharp teeth. On top of their head were three horns twisted together to make a single horn. Luna started rubbing their faces as the two animals started to relax. "How are my beautiful babies?"
Just after leaving Longbottom Manor, Luna went on her yearly trip with her dad to find the elusive creatures. During their third night was when she heard noises outside the tent. Her father was in the back room so he wouldn't hear anything. Getting out of her bed she crept out of her room and stared at two of the most beautiful animals she ever saw. Instantly she ran to them and hugged her babies. Since then, she had learnt that the animals only show themselves to people they feel worthy. Since their introduction into her life, they have never left her side.
"Are my little babies hungry?" Both animals were nodding their heads up and down, as their purple tongues were hanging out. Luna stood up and motioned to the man tied to the tree. "Dinner time."
Walking back to her house, she was excited to see her Puddin' again. She hoped that he wasn't getting too stir crazy from being cooped up at the Burrow. Looking around and enjoying the quiet of the evening. Whistling a little tune, snapping of bones could be heard behind her.

Rubbing his temples, Harry couldn't comprehend how such a mind could work. If it wasn't for the fact that breathing was an involuntary action, he was pretty sure Ron would be dead by now. How could one person talk about chess, quidditch and food the entire three weeks he was there. He was sure that he became dumber, he had to be. Probably Professor Bats was right and he had become a dunderhead. If he didn't get away quickly he was going to literally kill Ron. Hermione was a good distraction. It was so much fun to mess with her. Slowly he thought he was turning her to his way of thinking. Did he think that she was going to become a raving psychopath, NO, and to be honest with himself there was only room for one raving psychopath that Britain could handle. This is the reason why He-Who-Cannot-Tan, needs to go. He is messing with his plan to create his own unique brand of chaos.
Hermione now, has become more infuriated with the Wizarding World. To be honest, Ron was a big help in starting to turn her. The mindless glob was raised on pureblood ideals, even if his family didn't practice them. Ron was a simple person who didn't understand the way the world worked. His world was Hogwarts and The Burrow. He couldn't comprehend why Hermione became so infuriated with the lack of rights to Magical Creatures. In his small peanut mind, they were inferior to Wizards. Hermione finally woke up and took off those fog colored glasses. Little by little she was seeing the world how it really was. It didn't hurt that he threw her books from the Black library. More than anything her reading about how the government truly worked, was the biggest contributor to her slow conversion. She wasn't ready yet for him to reveal his true self, but eventually she will see the mask come off.
Tomorrow couldn't come fast enough for him. He could finally see his Moon Flower. She really wormed her way into his heart. Did they have the healthiest of relationships. Probably not, but you definitely wouldn't say it was boring. Bud and Lou just added to their little merry band of misfits.
Heading downstairs, he felt like causing a little mischief. Especially when it came to the Bow-Down-to-the-Old-Fart Club. It wasn't like he was going to get grounded. He was Harry Potter after all and The Chosen One. Wait till they get a load of him. He started chuckling to himself.
"Harry!"
Looking up the stairs, he smiled at his one friend. "Hello Hermione. What can I do for you this lovely evening?" He watched her come down the stairs. She came face to face with him.
"Where are you going? You know they don't want us downstairs while they are having an Order Meeting."
Harry knew of this, but his alter ego just couldn't take being cooped up anymore. He had to cause some type of trouble, maybe he can get some of the members to think about who they are really following. Raising an eyebrow, "Does it seem as if I'm concerned about what they say anymore?"
Hermione just sighed, "I know you're frustrated, but I'm sure they are just looking out for your best interest." She watched Harry give her a look. Hermione huffed, "Fine even I can't believe that anymore."
Smiling brightly at her, "Wonderful! Care to come down with me and enjoy the show."
Just shrugging her shoulders, "Why not?"
The two head downstairs and coming to the door to the kitchen, Harry turns to Hermione. "Let the games begin."

"Thank you for coming out here tonight. I know that tomorrow is going to be a busy day so I will not take up too much of your time tonight." Dumbledore looked over all his members in the Order. He was very proud of each and every one of them. He turns to Severus, "Has there been any news on the disappearance of Bellatrix or Greyback."
Severus stands up, he really hated coming to these insufferable meetings. In his opinion, he is the only one that does anything worthwhile for the Order. If it wasn't for him, they would have fallen to The Dark Lord months ago. "No. He is irate over this matter. He has all his Death Eaters out searching for Bellatrix. That is his number one priority."
Dumbledore shook his head, "It's a shame that somebody felt the need to take the law in their own hands. We need to show compassion. By showing compassion to our enemies, they can understand what they are doing is wrong."
Tonks just stared at Dumbledore, "Are you kidding me?! Whoever did this needs a medal. I say good riddance to that psycho bint."
Shaking his head sadly, "Nymphadora, she was your aunt. I'm sure you really don't feel that way. She was family, surely you don't mean any such harm to a family member."
"First, don't call me Nymphadora. Second, when she was flinging AK's at me. I'm pretty sure she wasn't thinking about familial ties at the time."
"Regardless I feel.." Dumbledore didn't have a chance to finish his sentence, when the kitchen door opened. He narrowed his eyes as Harry marched into the kitchen with Hermione behind him. Dumbledore was very worried with Harry's behavior. He seemed to be exhibiting more violent tendencies and that is troubling not only for the Order, but the entire Wizarding World.
Molly quickly stood up, "Is there any problems dears."
"What? Oh no, I just felt a little put out that I didn't receive an invitation these little shindigs. So I thought it was just an oversight that I wasn't invited so, here I am." They all watched Harry sit at the table looking everyone over. A huge smile was on his face, that made everyone slightly nervous, except for Remus and Tonks. "So what are we talking about?"
"Harry! You're too young to be at these meetings. You need to be a good boy and run back upstairs, and Hermione what has changed in you? You used to be such an obedient girl."
Hermione just narrowed her eyes. Was that what they thought of her? Just an obedient girl who would do as they say without asking questions. Harry was right, she had been a naive little twit who wasn't thinking for herself. Hermione was about to give the Red Banshee a piece of her mind, but Harry cut in.
"Hermione is just as involved in this mess as the rest of us. So let me ask you something Mrs. Weasley? Was I too young when I stopped Voldemort," Harry looked around at the different people who shuddered at the mention of his name. These were the people who were suppose to protect them. They were in serious trouble. "In my first year. Was I too young when I saved your youngest daughter from certain death in my Second year. Maybe I was too young trying to save my Godfather's life in my third year. Oh I know maybe it was being entered into a Tournament meant for adults in my fourth year. Then facing Voldemort again for the third time. Last year wasn't my finest hour, but we did take on Death Eaters, and again I had to face Voldemort. So for those keeping count, that's: basilisk, cerebus, dementors, dragons, merfolks, acromantulas, Death Eaters, and Voldemort five times, before I'm of age."
"Don't forget a giant pink toad."
"Thanks Mione, and a giant pink toad. So Mrs Wesley, is your resume as impressive as that. What about the rest of you who think that I'm not old enough to listen in on this little meeting of yours." Harry looked at the other members as they stared at him with their mouths hanging open. Leaning back to Hermione who was behind him, "I don't think they knew all that."
Hermione just chuckled, "No I don't think they did."
Clapping his hands together loudly caused everyone to come back to their senses. "So again, what type of plan is taking place to bring He-Wants-To-Be-The-King-of-Pop down."
The Headmaster, cleared his throat, "I'm very disappointed in you Harry, but since it seems that you refuse."
"Arrogant just like his father."
Harry sneered at the Potion Master, he didn't care how he was going to do it, but this was the last year for Severus. "I'm sorry, I wouldn't know. Since I've never met my father and only know him by stories. If I would believe you he was the devil incarnate. If I believed my godfather he was the next messiah. So I guess he was a mixture of both, a troublemaker with a heart of gold."
"Severus," Dumbledore just looked at his spy, "Let's just get this meeting on with. Now, Harry we didn't discuss anything yet, but really we are gathering information on what's Voldemort's next plan. With the disappearance of Bellatrix, Voldemort has been scouring England trying to find her."
Harry was tapping his chin, Looking at the Headmaster who was looking right back at him. Harry continued to stare, "That it! That's the big plan, wait for Voldemort to make a move and arrive late to do anything about it."
Sighing, Dumbledore took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. "What would you like us to do Harry?"
"I don't know maybe, hang around Knockturn Alley and maybe grab some Death Eaters. Interrogate them to lead us to more Death Eaters. Maybe use our main spy who knows exactly where Voldemort is and attack him there."
"Harry he is far too powerful.."
"Look even if you don't know the exact area, you know the general area. The muggles have wonderful weapons that could send missiles and destroy a target from hundreds of feet in the air. Even if you had to resort to the old pin bombs because of magic, they will still destroy a house, if you have the coordinates."
Severus just sneered at Harry, "Quit making up stories,"
Harry just stared at everyone who was looking at him with dumb expressions on their faces. Standing up, Harry nodded to everyone. "Sorry to bother you. Come on Hermione."
Harry left the kitchen as Hermione was walking alongside him. "What are you thinking Harry?"
"I'm thinking that I got even dumber being in that room. With them and Ron here, I'm sure my IQ points took a nosedive. We are going to need to have our own little faction in this war." A shadow was covering Harry's face as only his bright green eyes and pearly white smile could be seen. "And we will not be playing so nice."
Hermione just shivered as she watched Harry go upstairs. For whatever reason she felt a little better about their chances for survival.

"Puddin!" Luna grabbed onto Harry and gave him a huge hug in their compartment. She felt a shiver run down her spine as he wrapped his arms around her.
"How's my moon flower?"
"Wonderful Mr. J, and I say you look quite dashing in your purple suit." Luna looked at him up and down. His purple slim fit suit fit very well. It had a green vest with an orange tie. White gloves and black and white shoes completed the outfit. It was very pleasing. "She took out a flower and pinned it to Harry's chest. "A little gift from the twins, phase 3 was a success. We can start field testing now."
"Wonderful, I do love my new toy and I must say you're quite the looker yourself Ms. Lovegood", Luna was wearing a black and red diamonds dress that fit her form like a glove. Harry wasn't complaining about how it looked on her. "How are the babies?"
Frowning Luna looked to be wanting to cry, "I had to leave my babies at home, but Daddy said he would take care of them and I told them to behave themselves. I will see them over holiday break."
Harry nodded as the two sat down, Luna leaning against her true love with her head on his shoulder. It was such a wonderful summer for her. Not only did she find the man of her dreams, but she also found the creatures she had been searching for most of her young life. Closing her eyes, Luna just sighed with content.
The door opened and Neville stepped in, Harry gave Neville a huge smile. "Neville my friend. How are you this fine morning?"
Neville smiled back as he made his way into the compartment. He was carrying a potted plant that was smaller version of Henry. "Good Harry, I have Henry's sampling that I taking with me to raise.
Luna leaned forward as she started scratching the little plant under the chin. The plant was waving its tentacle like arms around. Luna looked up, "She looks just like her Daddy."
Harry leaned back, "So did you break your new toy yet."
Neville gave him a huge grin. "Oh I didn't tell you. So Granny came by the greenhouse to see what I've been doing. Since she hasn't seen me for a few days. So she caught me having my special time with Bella. Granny didn't say a word, she just nodded and started to break Bellatrix a little more. She never asked where Bellatrix came from, she was just glad to have some revenge on the deranged woman."
"A little of the ultraviolence, huh."
Neville just shrugged his shoulders, "You could say that. I think we may have become closer over this, and I have to say that the House of Longbottom owes you Harry."
Harry just waved the comment away, "We're friends Neville. You're problems are mine, and if I can find someway to solve those problems of yours I will."
The group sat in silence as they drifted off to their own thoughts. The cabin became more filled as Hermione and Ron joined the group. The train ride would never be complete without the usual visit by little Malfoy. The difference was Harry truly terrified Malfoy. Maybe it was the whispered comment about removing his spleen with a spoon. Harry couldn't really tell. The other visitor was an irate Ginny as she saw Luna holding Harry's and and leaning up against him. She left with a screech that caused Harry to shiver up and down. Visions of children passed through his head. One being named Albus Severus almost made him throw up. If that was his possible future he was going to off himself at that very moment.
The train eventually pulled into Hogsmeade Station. Harry and his group emerged from the train and headed for the carriages. Taking a minute, Harry went over to the Thestrals that were pulling them to the school and pet the top of their mane. He never realized how beautiful these creatures were, sighing he climbed into the carriage as they moved to the castle. Harry got his first glimpse of his home away from home and sigh in content. The faculty and staff had know clue what monster was heading their way. That little thought put a smile on his face.

"It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood, A beautiful day for a neighbor, Would you be mine? Could you be mine? Oh, Hello boys and girls. It's your good ole friend Mr. J. Here for another fun filled day of joy and chaos. Um, Luna dear, who is that over there?"
"What? Oh Hello Mr. J. Well you know that Hogwarts doesn't have the healthiest of food choices correct. Well, I decided to do a lifestyle change and do the 21 day fix."
"A good choice, we should all become healthier"
"Well while doing the exercises I noticed the main host wasn't doing any of the exercises. She would do them for 10 seconds at the beginning and the end. And each day for each exercise she would do the same thing. So I got angry and decided to go out to her home and kidnap her."
Harry looked at Luna and then at the slobbering mess of a woman on the floor curled up in a ball. "You realized she convulsing on the floor."
Looking down, Luna nudged the woman on the floor with her foot. "Huh, I thought she was trying out new exercise moves. Who would have thought eight hours of straight exercise would break a person. Oh well, I just drop her back home. It's Hollywood, they'll just assume it's a drug overdose."
Harry watched Luna disappeared with her blubbering mess of a hostage. Shrugging his shoulders, "I'm sadden that this wonderful episode took so long to get out to you my friends. I know, you have been waiting with eager anticipation to read about yours truly. What can I say, I'm at the mercy of the writer. It took some dipping in hot oil, pulling finger nails, but we finally have a chapter for you. Yes, I know. No need to thank me, but if you want to really thank me then send some money to….What is it writer? What do you mean I can't do that? Like you have a right to say anything. Two months!

I don't care about your personal life. This is bout me. ME! Okay that's it, Sorry to cut this short my loyal fans, but I need to deal with a problem.
