Sorry for the long wait readers but there has been a death in the family and normally i wouldn't put so much detail into this as it being so personnal but i think it's important for people to know how freak accidents like this can happen and how you should always cherish the ones you love as you may never know when their life will happen. My uncle was meant to have come over with my Aunt jo on Sunday but early Saturday afternoon the 10th of November My uncle Tom was in a freak accident as he was in a loading dock and on his way to speak with his wife who was given time off as someone took her shift for her at work and was then travelling with him in his truck for a delivery for the day. So as he went to speak with her I don't know what happened there as the police are still investigating this but they say that the bumper of a truck had backed up and his head was crushed. As the specialist had said when he came to speak with us in the family room, they had scoured their medical records to find out his medical histroy as we all know the medical system keeps our records, and said he must have been that healthy of a guy they couldn't find anything of him. He was a very health wise and safety caucious man that this is a really hard thing to even think could happen that for his age of 60, he was in his prime. But mentally he was dead on impact. His body healthy and living but he just wasn't there anymore. His body was just a shell. It was hard to believe when i answered the phone call for my nana at the supermarket that when we got to Middlemore, it just hit all my family like a tonne of bricks. He was such a loving, caring, proudful and such a great figure, he changed so many lives that seeing him in the hospital bed and relying on a machine to breathe, it's just so hard. So my message to everyone as you all may have heard from others many times before. Live life to your fullest and enjoy every moment you have with you loved ones and hold them close. Make sure everyone you care for knows how much you love them as you may never have that chance the next day.
Rest in Peace Uncle Tom, we all love you and miss you heaps. Travel those roads in Trucky heaven and wait for Unty Jo to join you in that passenger seat, but till then i hope Unty Mary and Grandad Cess will keep you company. Love You.
So i'd Just like to thank ExtremeDinosaur Fangirl for all of her wonderful ideas and for her support. So please read and review if you have any ideas or thoughts you would like to express.
Thanks.

Dinosaur Museum in Jasper Nevada
The girls came to when they heard fighting in a room a little ways off. Ginny heard Bad Rap arguing with T-Bone, the T-Rex, over what had just happened back in the clearing. Ginny felt her heart beat pick up when she heard Bad Rap was protecting her. They also heard Chedra, the blue skinned quadranian, talking with another female dinosaur that the girls could vaguely remember from last night. Luna was trying to get up when she found a young ostritch at her feet next to the bed, Ditto, that started running around them making her dizzy and falling back onto her temporary bed. She fell down with a thump and the sisters heard the voices in the next room quieten instantly. The raptors came through a door way went over and sat down next to each of the girls and helped them to sit up.
T-Bone sounding a little bit ticked off said "What happened out there and who are you three really?"
Haxx stood up and glared at the T-Rex with venomous rage surging through them as he was obviously angered at his enemy for accusing his lover and girls that he obviously considered kin.
"Listen T-Dorkasaurus, the girls just woke after some how over exhausting themselves from last night and I don't think they want to talk about it now so don't force them you Iguanadon brains." Hissed the laser blade wielding raptor that stood his ground.
Luna looked to Haxx with clear admiration and love in her bright orange eyes.
Luna looked to Haxx once more, this time shyly before looking to her sisters, both nodding their heads with sorrowful eyes and gentle smiles, then to the new comer, Delia, who Luna had seen her arrival to their time. The rusty gold with silver scaled dino fem had crossed her arms and smiled warmly to her while she leant back against a tan wall off to the side of the crowd with her arms crossed and another, a dino male with red and brown scales a head taller than Delia in a ripped grey long coat, dusty green khaki trouders and heavy metal boots. Luna knew there was something forming between them even if the link she saw forming between the two was mainly from the male's sidw. Luna looked down to her hands with a sigh. 'Better get this over with she thought.
"Actually Haxx, I think its best if we tell you all what we were before we came to be, that's if miss Delia over there has had a chance to tell you yet." This time Luna looked directly to the grinning figure of the golden scaled fem leaning against the wall who walked over to join the group while the males were all scratching the back of their scaley heads with an embarrased look on their faces.
"Actually I haven't had a chance to tell these meat heads anything as on account of the fact that as soon as we walked through the double doors of this museum they started argueing with your fellas and Chedra here just wanted to inform me on how many laws I was breaking just by coming to this time when i was questioned of my origins. Besides I think it's best they hear this tale straight from the horses mouth or in your case straight from the raptors mouth." Delia said while scanning the embarrased dinos faces with an amused look only to chuckle at the sight of Ditto mimicking their actions with rubbing the back of his head with a small wing of his. Hari leaned into Spittor as he wrapped an arm around her waist, stunning the Extreme Dinosaurs with that one small sign of deep affection, Ginny snd Luna did the same as BadRap lay his head on Ginny's with an arm slung lazily over her shoulder as Haxx rested his chin on Luna's left shoulder and wrapped his arms firmly around her waist as his eyes still held worry for her, within them from the earlier show of power. Hari looked to the humanoid T-Rex before speaking,
"I was born Harriet Jane Potter, human daughter and first born mage in the Potter line, to James and Lily Potter. We were all born as human girls to magical families in England. I was 2 and Luna and Ginny were not long born on the night this all happened." The raptors, the males that is were shocked at this info, their expressions clearly showing how much, though their hold of the girls never loosend. Hari continued,
"I think I better start from the beginning. As you know witches and wizards are beings that can wield magic with a stick called a wand and their are small hidden communities through out the world, each one having it's own views and rules for running things. England happens to hold one of the largest communites next to America and Japan, however it also happens to be one of the least developed in magical advancements. Meaning they still think humans are that far undeveloped that they resort to violence just for food and such. The ministry think the world is all black and white, like there's no grey zone, no neutrality and unfortunately the only person, a mage, to have seen this area inbetween their supposed dark side and light side was shunned as the higher ups made their loyal followers think that his ideals were evil."
The extreme dinosaurs were listening in with great interest as they were told of a world and power that they had no idea even existed was apparently right under their noses- er beaks or muzzles or what ever.
"This mage was known as Tom Marvolo Riddle, he like ourselves saw what was easily over looked by those fools. Tom clearly staked his life on his beliefs which were that magical creatures such as unicorns, dragons, werewolves etc. should be held in higher regard for they were all on the verge of rebeling against the witches and wizards that would hunt down, kill and then harvest their corpses for certain elements like skin and horns to even claws and hearts and they wouldn't even be gentle, they would just hack it all away. Those creatures had agreed to hide their existance for their future generations safety and only asked for protection in return but the magicals didn't see it that way. Tom had even stuck up for the pure bloods who believed in the old ways to respect all that is magical even the creatures. Tom had expressed his views to the British magical community of how they could simply make contracts with all magical creatures such as in respect harvest unicorns corpses that have passed of their old age or of natural ailments, the same for all magical beasts so as to prevent them all from extinction and how we could learn wandless magic if we had tried hard enough." Chedra's blue face held a look on contemplation as she was obviously thinking over the ideas Tom Riddle had long since presented.
"This Tom Riddle brings forward good ideas but I can tell that those magicals as you call them didn't take this to easy did they?" Spoke the Quadranium officer.
"Your right, Chedra was it?" Hari asked as she recalled the boys telling them all about her and the extreme dinosaurs, the alien officer nodded her head with a light smile. Ginny took over from there,
"The pure bloods had agreed with him and many of the pure blood families had aligned them selves with him with great devotion as many of them were his own friends from school. Those within the ministry that were muggle born or half bloods or those that blindingly followed a man by the name of Albus Dumbledore had become frightened of this rise in Tom's followers, even Dumbledore himself had started spreading a bad word about him through out the world's magical communities stating that he was a soon to be Dark Lord due to the fact that he could use wandless magic thanks to him being a mage." Haxx interrupted Ginny,
"Earlier Hari said that you were all mage's. What is the difference between a Mage and a witch?" a confused expression on the blade wielding raptor's face.
"A Mage is a being that can wield magic freely without the use of spells or a wand and seem to have a certain power and affinity with certain elements. I'll explain this a little bit further into the story. Anyway Tom was a mage and was teaching those that were loyal to him how to use wandless magic incase they ever lost their wands. He did this because he genuinely did care for them all, however the rest of magical Europe thought that this was his way of training an army and started to take action. Dumbledore being the head figure of their supposed light side had created a group called the Order of the Pheonix. They were the first to start a war against Tom, many of those that believed in Tom were killed, even more on the 'Light Side' were killed as they were mostly untrained and still young novices. Tom or as Dumbledore named him, 'Lord Voldemort' couldn't stop his followers from attacking the 'Light' in their's or his defence but he had warned them greatly and even offered to let them leave their cause at any time but none never did as the deaths of their fellow followers who stood up for their beliefs only made them more determined. Where as those that had fallen on the light side were played off as pawns in Dumbledore's sick little mind games. He used their deaths as a way to scare the public of the supposed dark side growing." T-Bone and BadRap growled, with them both being leaders of the opposite sides their own thoughts drifted to what ifs of what the future could have been like if their fighting continued. Delia, knowing the history of the girls remained quiet, an emotionless expression clear on her face as her eyes showed shadows of sorrow, no one seemed to notice this except for Ridge who eyes were focused on Delia through out the whole talk. Her expressions as the topic at hand became more and more heavier in detail changed rapidly, his interest for this female spiked as he wanted to know more about her, why she was here.
Hari continued to speak,
"A month before the eve of my birth a prophecy was told by one Sybil Trelawny.
"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark approaches ... born to one who has thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies ... and the Dark will mark it as his equal, but it will have power the Dark knows not ... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives ... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark will be born as the seventh month dies ..."
"Dumbledore had no idea of what to do as he was unsure if it talked of Tom or himself so he took the prophecy and erased Sybil Trelawny's memories of said prophecy. The prophecy had stated, 'the one who has thrice defied him'. The only one to defy him and Tom was my mother, Lily Evans. She had only wanted a good life with the perfect magical family. So when he had found out that I was born midnight on the last day of July, he had my parents hide away incase Tom had ever found out about it, he had come up with a plan that would mean my death as he thought Tom would seek me out just to kill me." Spittor hissed as his eyes flashed dangerously, he wrapped both of his arms around Hari's waist as he pulled her form to his as if to protect her. Looking up to her raptor she smiled before placing a small kiss to his tensed jaws, only quietening his hissing as he then nuzzled his head into her neck.
Hari smiled to her love before she giggled a little at the fallen jaws of the extreme team who were shocked at the sight of the raptors even showing affection let alone worry for anything other than themselves. Hari sighed before continuing her story.
"Since I could remember my times with my family were happy times, even though my father had wanted a boy to name heir to the Potter line as it is always the first born child no matter the gender. Though my father's affections towards me were a little less than I had liked I didnt mind as my mother was always there for me as she thought that my being a mage was wonderful and doted on me. A few months after I turned 2 and still no sign of 'Lord Voldemort', my mother had told me she was pregnant, with a boy. That's where it all changed as my father was more than over joyed at this news and his sole focus as I was slowly moved out of the picture. This I had expected and even my mother what with a new baby coming and morning sickness just starting. My father made sure she stayed off her feet, as well as I stayed out of her way. I didn't care as I had just been learning how to become independant, so till I had turned 3 I had cared for myself as I had patiently waited to be acknowledged. My brother Charlus James Potter or C.J. was born the day after my birthday. I had ended up waiting another year thinking that I would receive some sort of affection or recognition but come my fourth birthday it turns out that I was completely forgotten. It was the next day that I heard shouts of happy birthday coming from down the hall."
"I had got out of bed that morning and I ran down the hall I thought that I had finally been remembered and I remember this big surge of happiness and joy, but what I saw changed my whole perspective on my life. I saw them, my mother, father, god parents and even a whole group of people that I could barely remember but I knew from sometime in my short happy life, they were all celebrating my little brother first birthday. That's right he was born the day after my own birthday, this is where Dumbledore had thought that it was my baby brother that was meant to be this savior and I've never been to sure but on the day he came to visit my parents I don't know what he had said but it must have been something horrible about me, i'm sure. As I stood at the top of the stairs, not knowing how to feel and I could'nt move. Then it was as if all hope left me as I saw both of my parents give me such evil looks over their shoulders when Dumbledore pointed to me behind them with a twinkle in his eys, it was as if I was this scum that shouldn't even exist. All I could remember was quietly walking back to my room, locking my door before I sat on my bed and stared off into nothiness. That moment had turned my whole view on life around. Adapt. Live your life, adapt as time goes, rely on no one and always ALWAYS look out for number one. Yourself."
"I had moved myself out of that room and into the attic where I had come upon thousands of old family artifacts and books. The attic also happened to have easy access through a window in which I could sneak out as I pleased to fetch food from the trees and hunt small animals like rabbits and fish from the forrest that grew behind the Potter estate. It was like this for a month till Tom had made himself known, seeking to align himself with the one that was his supposed down fall, however as Dumbledore had said to the light side, he would seek out the chosen one and kill him. So on that night Tom had gone to meet my brother who my parents had used their own bodies to protect CJ. Tom only paralyzed them so as to have them out of their way knowing they were to blinded by that old fool and walked into the nursery where I was by chance to just check up on him. He was pleased to know that he wasn't the only mage alive and that night he and I had made a deal, to let things cool down and to stop the death and senseless killing on both sides, we'd fake his death and let the world think that the prophecy was fulfilled with C.J. as the chosen one and in 15 yrs when he had the support of the other communities around the world he would slowly re emerge. I hid in the ceiling and projected a magical barrier around crib as he had slept through the whole conversation and just as Dumbldore walked in the door way Tom would scream and place a fiendfyre upon himself which hid the sounds of him evaporating as he screamed. He left nothing but the burnt ashes of his robes. This part hurt me as I had to scar my brother in order for him to look as though the magic was his and was rebounding back at him so I focused my magic as it hit him in the chest, leaving a heart as his scar. The pain, as blood started leaking from the heart shaped wound that lay above his colar bone woke him up as he started wailing. "
"I did for his own good, I wanted him to have something to remember me by so I infused my magic into his new scar so that I could always know how he was, how he was feeling and where he was. I loved him and I wanted him to know that I would always be there for him so I made the scar a heart shape. I watched from my position in the ceiling through that small hole as Dumbledore hushed crying as my mother and father came to, that was the night I knew my brother would have a better life than I ever would. 10 yrs I had hid myself in the attic continuing my non existant life as I studied the books and gained a great deal of interest in all the books that had to do with herbology and potions and ancient relics. My brother never knowing of my existence accept for that female voice in his head that would guide him if he were to do anything wrong or was confused or just needed some company. At this time I was 14 going on 15, my barely non existant within the potter household was discovered as this is where Ginerva comes into my story." Hari tried to tease her sister but to no avail as the emotions that passed over Hari's face as she retold her life not only to her love but also to a group she had only ever hears tale of really on;y dampened the mood. The raptor, her Spittor had never loosened his grip nor tightened it through out her tale till he turned her in his arms and kissed her passionately.
Ginny's PoV
I would have snarled and tickle attacked my sister because I knew she meant it as a joke but at the moment and current situation it just felt like it went better with the our story. Sighing I snuggled into BadRap's chest as I stared at the heart warming scene of Spittor publicly displaying his and Hari's love in front of his enemy's view. It was nice to see such strong and raw emotion in Hari's emerald eyes, for a second there I was afraid that those shadows would continue to dance in them forever had she not met her man, er raptor. I heard the t-rex, T-Bone, clear his throat as I saw a large blush rapidly spreading accross both his and his team mates scaled faces as they stared at the scene, while Haxx, Luna, BadRap and the females of the other side just smiled and chuckled at the sight. Finally the two had broken apart, neither showing embarassment at their public display as they just smiled to one another before turning to me, a look in Hari's eyes clearly telling me that I was next.
"Okay so I'll make my story as short as I can here as Hari's story was what you all really needed to hear and quite frankly the only ones that really need to know are our guys and I don't feel all that comfortable with sharing such personal information with you lot but if it helps you lot to trust us then fine. I was born Ginerva Molly Weasley and I'm the only daughter out of 7 kids to my mother and father, Arthur and Molly Weasley, who happened to be blind followers of the 'Light' side. From oldest to youngest there was my oldest brother Bill who is a curse breaker, then Charley who is now working with dragons, then Percy who has not long started working in the ministry and happens to be another blind follower only this one has a stick shoved so far up his A-"
"*AHEM*" Ginny's cuss was interrupted by Chedra who was tapping her foot with a stern expression on her face as she motioned with her head to the confused and apparently far to interested ostrich that reached her knees that was staring right at the red scaled raptor. Catching her drift, Ginny chuckled to herself before continuing her story.
"You get the idea. Then there's me the first and only daughter of this generation to be born into the pure blood Weasley family. The devilish twins who happen to be well known for their pranks are Fred and George they were a year after me, but they prefer to be called Gred and Feorge and then there's the youngest, Ron who happens to be 2 years younger than me. He's a little tweb but he's cool. My mother had always wanted me to be this perfect all round genius and pristine daughter that she could train to be the perfect wife," Hearing this, a possesive growl ripped through BadRap's throat causing Ginny to smirk as she continued her story while soothingly stroking her love's scaly hands around her waist, " but my father pushed to do what I believed in and what I was good at and that was fighting styles and weapons. So I did what I loved since I was seven and could properly hold a sword, shield or whatever weapon I chose to weild. When I was finished mastering one I would move onto the next while I also went to all sorts of combat classes like karate, ju-jitsu and many more. I enjoyed learning such arts and what was even better was that after numerous competitions I had always come out no.1. I loved the thrill of fighting but I think dad got a greater kick out of my up coming career as he loved the fact that I defied my mother wishes to be a little princess." BadRap let out a low rumbling purr when he heard this, obviously pleased at hearing how strong willed and proud his mate had been at such a young age.
"My mother became fed up with my tom boyish ways, at this time I was 13 and thought that it had carried on long enough. Behind my fathers back she signed a contract with the Potter family and sold me into an arranged marraige with their son C.J. He was a nice enough kid, but that was it, we were only kids. My father although very displeased with it couldn't stop the contract as it was a magic binding contract that only C.J. could break it off if he wanted to. I knew him since he was a baby, I used to watch him and Ron when they would visit or vice versa. He was a nice enough kid and did really well in school and was liked by just about everyone he came by. He was also 2 yrs younger and would follow me around like a love sick puppy which was cute at first but soon became rather annoying as I grew older and started to gain a healthy interest in the opposite gender, he would always chase them off. Either way he wasn't going to cancel that contract any time soon so I went about finding any way I could break it but till then I was moved out of my home and into the Potter's so that I could 'grow accustomed' to C.J.'s life style." A more beastial growl ripped through BadRap's vocal chords as his green eyes flashed, this reaction took all in the room even me, who squeked in surprise. I calmed my big raptor by letting out a low rumbling growl while stroking his orange tail that wound its way around my thighs during the tale before I continued.
"So on the first day I was moved in, Lily and James Potter left us alone for the day so that we could 'get to know each other.' It was late in the afternoon and C.J. had just been playing running his house while I sat in the library trying to avoid him as much while searching through their books for how to break magical contracts only to find nothing. He burst through the door saying he was going to get some lunch for the two of us only to fall to the floor snoring. I was surprised at his sudden lack of conciousness and was about to see if he was alright only to find that a tile in the roof of the library was being removed and guess who literally dropped right into my lap. Hari. I honestly didn't know of her existance till that very day, no one in the magical community did either. This was the chance I had been waiting for. She told me of her life and the truth of the 'light' side and 'dark' side as well as to what really happened on that fateful hallow's eve when C.J. had gained his supposed fame. I was horrified at her life story and she wasn't to pleased at hearing about my mother's ideals as well, we quickly struck up a friendship. This was the night we bound our magic so that we had the same connection she made with CJ."
"When I had agreed to keep her existance a secret from CJ who still thought of her as the voice inside his head as she went back into the ceiling saying that she would come out every now and then and train me. At the time I thought that it would be me training her but-"
"You were to full of yourself at the time sister, you needed to be taken down a notch in order for you to go up several more levels." Hari said as she interrupted my story. I just hissed at her before speaking again.
"Yeah but that doesn't mean you had to shove me into a match with a werewolf and minotaur, I nearly died that day." The raptors were stunned to hear this, the extreme dinosaurs were curious of as to what these creatures were. Hari just chuckled as she leaned into her pink raptor more.
"Yes but you have only ever fought a wizard or muggle, you needed to learn how to fight against the world and what it has to offer in order to understand ways that your fighting style could be used with magic to create weapons and how it could become your greatest strength other than relying on your wand that you had grown up with all your life. That is what held you back, your wand always limited your mage abilities. You needed to learn to understand your magic better and what better way than throwing you into the deep end, just like how I learned to control my magic." Hari left it at this as she closed her eyes rested against her lover. I stopped hissing as I knew my sister was right. Like she always was.
"Um I thought minotaurs and werewolves were all just a myth." Bullz-eye said as he scratched the back of his head in confusion. Luna giggled at the sight of the confused terrorsaur.
"As far as you muggles, 'non-magical folk' that is are concerned. They've been around for centuries and are hidden under the under the veil that hides the magical communities around the world." Luna stated before she looked to her older sister.
"Anyway we had a plan of how to break the contract but we would need one more person as we had to make a blood pact but these pacts take more than 2 as they were meant for large covens. So till then she helped me train and become stronger when we had the chance to see each other. And this was actually quite often as the Potters would leave for work during the week in the school holidays and often in the evening for events in which CJ would sleep for a few hours in the afternoons and in the evening would leave with his parents to keep up public appearances they keep telling me. It was like this for 3 months and only a month before school was to start, there was a fight, and the 'dark' side had supposedly murdered a neutral family, the case was still being investigated. There was a survior though, someone who had witnissed the whole thing from her hiding place. The only daughter of the the family that had been to traumatized by the killing to even talk or sleep... Luna" All eyes turned to the smallest of the three sister raptors as Luna's orange eyes dulled as dark memories now haunted her vision.
Author PoV
Luna curled her small form into Haxx's larger brown scaled person as all eyes were now on her. Her pale blue tail wound its way around Haxx's waist as she sighed before turning her large orange eyes to the extreme dinosaurs that had patiently waited till each girl had finished their story and now ere waiting to hear what the smallest and youngest of the group had to tell. Luna's eyes widened as she had only just noticed that they were all now seated on some chairs. Deciding not to bother asking of where they could have come from she cleared her throat before speaking.
"I am Luna Lovegood, daughter of Xenophilius and Emelia Lovegood. My family, to those that don't know us well enough, are lunatics in the eye of the public but to those that we hold near and dear know that we are all actually descended from Fae, before you ask Mr. T-Bone, Fae are a race of pure magical beings that take on the human form and are said to have been able to see the future and manipulate magic at their will, similar to a mage but they never lose energy. We hide our 'sight' as I like to call it behind our mask which. Which is our unusual behavior. The reason being is that if any within the ministry were to find out, well lets just say that when 'Seers' as we liked to call ourselves, because Fae are techinicaly labeled dark magical beasts, well we would be treated as such," Hearing this made Haxx realise just how much danger his 'light' was in for even just existing. It made him love her more, want to protect and cherish her more as he nuzzled his head into her long silky feathers.
"The ministry they- actually I think my story will give you a better idea of what they do to 'Seers', it will also explain how Delia managed to come to this time using my magic as a power source. So all my life we held our masks with pride as we walked through the magical world and lived our lives the best we could with our secrets, that is till my mother had a vision. One of those that we thought we could trust broke that bond and went to the ministry and blabbed to them. Mother also had a vision that my life would be safe in the hands of a raven feathered lizard with bright green eyes that always hid behind the image of a human girl for her safety. When she was telling me and father this we knew that this would happen soon but we just didn't know how soon and my parents had decided that they would stand and fight. That was our home and land and many a Lovegood had lived there before us. So the next day when we were having breakfast there was a knock at the door, father had mother hide me in a small space that was protected with our magic, only noticeable to another seer. As mother closed the door and concealed me with a charm then joined my father who had his wand at the ready. I watched as the door was kicked down and my mother and father were knocked back with a stupefy. I almost gasped as I realised that it wasn't any dark wizard we had heard about but the aurors, lead Dumbledore himself as they shot curse after curse upon my parents still bodies." Tears ran down Luna's pale cheeks as she had not spoken of her parents death since she first met Hari and Ginny. Haxx saddened at the sight of his loves sobbing form, he let out a low rumbling growl in his chest to calm her and soothe her while he rubbed her back as he held her to his chest. It worked too, only Luna started giggling and she was suddenly attacked with little peck like kisses. The atmosphere of the room seemed to cheer up a little as Luna smiled and gently sroked Ditto's feathers in thanks as she received a little chirp of 'ditto' in return. Luna continued her tale.
"Sorry for that and thanks again Haxx, Ditto. ...So I watched from the hole in the door as Dumbledore of all people was the last one to fire a curse at my parents still and battered forms with a curse that is forbidden. The use of this curse means the same fate for both the victim and the user-Death. I don't know how much time had passed but the words that Dumbledore spoke haunt me even till now, 'This should teach filthy creatures like you to think your better than your masters'. After that I think I fell into a state of shock as I watched the aurors storm through my once beautiful house and destroy everything in sight. When I snapped out of my shock I don't know how much longer after, I couldn't stop the scream that was stuck in my throat as it ripped through me and the illusion charm hiding me fell away. I was soon calmed my a Mr. James Potter who came out of no where, I watched over his shoulder in fear as Dumblebore still stood in the battered door way with a furious expression on his face as he stared at me. It was clear that he was displeased that he hadn't found me, I suppose that it also doesn't help that I had witnised him using such an unforgiveable curse as well."
"His facial expression changed to that of pity as James Potter turned to his 'Lord of Light' and asked what he should do about me, obviously pitying me. I acted as though I was to traumatized to speak, the old hack must have fallen for it and told James that if he took me home and raised me as his and Lily's own that the press would see his family as this charitable and kind hearted family which the press immediately spread through their various papers. So I was off to live with the Potter's, first day in their presence and Lily Potter fawned over me like I was some fragile china doll and then the next day I was dropped like nothing. I didn't mind though as they had taken their son with them to a gala at the ministry. This was also the same day I had met Ginny who had been hiding the day of my arrival and she introduced me to Hari in the attic and they had both explained their lives up till that point to me and I told them of my story minus the family secret of course. Though it wasn't till I looked directly into Hari's eyes that I had accidently made a mental connection with her and I saw her beast form, a green raptor with bright green eyes and messy black feathers. She had also seen into my mind of the horror I had seen and she also found out what I was. She and Ginny comforted me and assured me that we would always be together, after all we shared the same animal form and we were a pack animal and a proud pack at that." Ginny and Hari smiled to each other as those words couldn't have been any more true.
"I loved my life there. For four years, till my 16 birthday, Hari 18 and Ginny 17 they trained me in secret to control and hide my visions so that I could touch a personal item of someone and project it through my eyes with magic and search the past present and future."
"Unfortunately one day C.J. had found out of my talents in seeing when Ginny was helping me scour the past and then the Potter's came home earlier than expected. C.J., he had immediately called his father thinking he would be pleased at my talents only to be sadly mistaken as the smile James had rapidly switched to a frown as James listened to story of how he found me repeating the past of items that were layed before me. Next thing I saw coming was a bright light heading right for me as I heard screams of no from Ginny and Hari in my head and next I'm waking up in a dark cell with Hari and Ginny's voices screaming in my head when I had told them I was okay." Hari and Ginny at this point were actually whinning, all attention was on them as their whinning sound was directed at Luna who looked to her sisters saddened faces. Luna smiles a small but understanding smile.
"I know you would of tried to save me from that ever happening but at the time the plan was more important. Hari you needed to remain a secret and Ginny you had to make sure that the Potter's remained ignorant to the fact that you were a mage. You know I forgave you then and I still do now." Both Hari and Ginny smiled to Luna as they tucked themselves into their lovers chests who in turn held them tightly. Luna's heart warmed at this scene before she turned to the extreme team who had watched the whole exchange with soft eyes.
"You guys really are close aren't yous?" BullZEye asked. The rest of the team nodded their heads as though they had wanted to also know the connection between the 3 females.
"Yes we are. We think of each other as sisters in all but blood." Ginny answered this question as she enjoyed BadRap softly stroking her hair. There was a pause and Hari had decided to continue the story from there as Luna's form was visibly shaking, as her dark memories haunted her clouded vision, in Haxx's firm hold. Said raptor was whispering soothing words to the pale blue raptor as he gently stroked her light blond almost white feathers.
"For 3 months, that's how long Luna was held captive, and it was 3 months before we had everything ready to perform a ceremony that would give us the power and forms that we would need to bring this world to rights. During those 3 months we would talk mentally to Luna to keep her informed on our progress with the ritual which we had to make sure the moon positioning and star alignment was correct for and during those three months we could feel the pain Luna was going through as the minitry used her as an experiment to see what effect certain spells would have on her and her , me and Ginny, are pretty sure of what spells they had used on Luna when they held her captive but we were scared for her as each time she was hit with a spell we could feel her power growing, becoming more wild as it rose to protect her. We were lucky because when the time came and the ritual was set in the back of the forrest behind the Potter house hold and the wards to protect us were all in place we just had to wait for the perfect time to rescue Luna. When I had come down for the first time in a long while, I and Ginny were in the library, which was also my father's office, searching for a port key. An item that has a spell on it that we would use transport you to any place at a certain time or when a word is spoken. This was when C.J. and I had finally come face to face. The look of shock on his face as the tears ran down his cheeks." Hari for the first time in a long while was crying as she remembered the smile on his face as her little brother finally called her name, 'Harriet' and called her his big sister.
"He ran up to hug me and it was as if he knew what we were looking for as he went over to a grand oak desk opened a door with a key he had around his neck then lifted up the paneling under it. Me and Ginny gasped as he pulled out a small black snake toy. I didn't know what to think as it was the first toy I ever had and I could remember it from when I was really young. Severus, the one my mother had named god father had gotten it for me as a joke only I made it the one thing I couldn't be without. If my father had made this snake his emergency port key to the ministry does this mean he still loved me?" This point was where Hari had broken down sobbing and it was Spittor's turn to calm his lover. Ginny sighed knowing that this story was taking its toll on all of them as she took over the story from there.
"I had taken the toy from C.J. when he and Hari had broken down and thanked him as he whispered the the activation word, 'Emerald' which is what her father had wanted to call Hari when he had first seen her eyes at birth. I supported Hari as we port keyed to the minitry hidden under the invisibility cloak she had found when she moved into the attic. It was tricky but we managed to sneak past the aurors to the lower levels of the ministry where they held their...'experiments'. I will never forget the sights we had seen down there, the dead forms of the many magical creatures they had tortured just so that could 'understand' how the mythical beasts worked. Yeah right it was just their cover so they could get their sick jollies from hurting such precious creatures. We restrained ourselves from murdering any of those...those sick **ers then and there till we found Luna, bound and barely concious as we looked through the bars of the wooden door. She was bound with chains that held her arms out to the side. We busted the chains and before either me or Hari managed to say the activation word for the port key, James Potter shouted stop with his wand pointed at us, only for it to fall from his loosen grasp when he had seen Hari. We hadn't planned on this happening but we didn't stick around to see what would happen as we heard more wizards coming our way so we spoke the word and port keyed back to the office in the Potter house hold before side long teleporting to our rune circle where we activated the wards as we set Luna down. We made sure we had the potion set in the fire in the middle of the transformation symbol and the blood and shadow candles set around the outside of the circle as we placed a drop of blood onto a rune stone we had written our full names on while chanting the incantation that was meant to change our fate and make us stronger. We made our own sisterhood, our own pack."
"We felt ourselves shift into our animagus forms," Ginny waved away Spikes raised hand as she explained, "An animagus is a witch, wizard or mage that can turn into an animal that best represents them. In our case ours all happened to be a raptor. So as we changed to our scaly counter parts, we heard a gasp coming from the tree line and found C.J gasping as he came out and watched us shift. The spell suddenly took a dangerous twist as instead of just uniting us, it took the 'change' part and 'make us stronger' part literally and well that's how we ended up with these forms today. We were lucky enough that we had just enough energy to use a port key to teleport us to america, but before we left we looked around our surroundings and found the Potter's with shocked expressions on their faces. It was obvious that they, just like C.J. had witnissed the whole change. They didn't look shocked or horified at our ritual, only saddened. But it was like they were totally different people from what we knew. That was the last we saw of them as we were teleported to america. So for about 8 months we were literally on the run as not only did the muggles but also the magical communites thought we were monsters and they were tracking us down thinking we were these dark beasts bent on destruction. That was when we came across the island that BadRap and the guys found us on. And when we discovered that it has *Yawn* some sort of magical properties that hide it from detection by radar and magic unless within 2kms within range, it was the perfect home for a reptile." Ginny stretched her arms above her head before closing her eyes and resting her head of BadRap's shoulder. The raptors, the men that is, were relieved that the story was over but were also happy that they now knew the most important facts of their lovers lives even though the extreme dinosaurs had to be there they didn't care.
"Another reason why that island was perfect and that would explain Luna being a power house that acted as the conductor that would bring Delia here was because every now and then since we had saved Luna, she would have these surges of power that were uncontrollable and were what we would call blitzes would often just explode within her knocking her out and us back." Ginny let out a final yawn before she started letting out soft snore like sounds. BadRap knew she was now asleep, he adjusted her position so she was now sitting bridal style in his arms and her arms lazily hanging from his neck and her mazzle just resting on his left shoulder.
Luna, barely awake herslef, was still shaking a bit as Haxx held her tight.
"Your alright I'm here for you." He whispered to her as he slowly stroked her back till she was fst asleep in his arms.
"How does Delila fit into all of this though?" T-Bone asked as he scratched the back of his head in confusion. Said FemDino looked to the leader of the extreme team as she silently basked in the knowledge that she knew the male dino of her kind was constantly glancing and admiring her figure.
"It all happened when these brave raptors here stood up for their love against the magicals who had purposely exposed themselves to the humans. Their hidden world once exposed sparked much fear amongst the human race as they used their great powers to kill these heroes and their enemies. From there the government started connecting many a missing links to that hidden world and started demanding answers from the magicals higher ups who snobbily pushed them away. Underestimating the non magicals threats who held up to their end had started a full out war. Humans and technology won over the magicals many a years later. Although during this time millions of interspecial relationships began and my kind came into existance as humanoid animals and half magics began their meager existance in a freedom that was short lived as humans demanded our submission and we were all forced into slavery. For generations our kind suffered and slowly as we continued to breed our beast that we once could easily contain was becoming harder to control, some of the weaker willed breeds snapped once pushed to far and had finally become the animal that we fought hard against. Those that had snapped, lived below ground and fed off scraps. Rebels hid away still fought for freedom, but our numbers were dwindeling and I was assigned the last mission as I was the only one with the complications to complete it. My mission was to save you all and the three sisters from a Dr Becky Scarwell who if we don't take care of her soon, will be the ruining of this beautiful world. She ans this Rathbone fella are the ones i was sent here to kill and to get here from the future through the closest power source I could just happened to be luna and so I'm here." Delia said as if it was just everyday information while checking out her claws.
All dinos were astounded by what they had just heard. Standing with them right now was an actual being from the future. As shocked as they were, they were brought out of their musings when they heard the sisters lightly snore, all three were fast asleep in their man's arms. They also saw Luna was still tucked up in Haxx's lap purring in her sleep as Ditto made himself comfortable in her lap. before he he to fell fast asleep. Chedra noticed the looks on the male raptors faces and decided that it was also a emotionally tiring day for them all. Especially Delia who was starting to have a hard time trying to keep her own eyes open while leaning against the wall once more. Her large head slowly starting to fall onto Ridge's shoulder, not that she saw the guy complaining.
"Okay I think that's enough for tonight guys. Let us just leave it at that and continue this in the morning. It's been a long day for all of us. BadRap, we have some rooms set up in the shed out back. Porky thought things might take a good turn and that you lot might need to catch some sleep. Delia you can sleep with them till we get the rest of this place set up properly to accomadate everyone. Don't argue with me on this either Spike. Because from here on out we're all going to need to work together and i think it's best if you all just play it cool and tried to get along okay? Now then, all of you off to bed." Chedra spoke with authority in her voice as if her word was final and no one would argue. The extreme team grumbled under their breathes, T-Bone mumbling to himself saying something like "And here I thought I was the leader." But moved off to their room down the hall except for BullZEye who just went back into the other room to watch the shopping channel once again. While Chedra showed the raptors and Delia to a large grey shed that was set up with 4 large beds along one end and a large seating area on the other side. As they all walked in, Delia thanked Chedra for everything and for giving her the chance to explain themselves before she said good night and closed the door.
The raptors settled themselves into a bed once they had their lovers under the blankets and held them close. Each one glad that the long history of the sisters was now shared with them and that they could all do something to help each them. Soon sleep claimed the humanoid dinos and the night finally set in.
