Chapter III: Intervention and Transformation
Manchester train station resembled a battleground. Several dead Lycans, people screaming and running around senselessly and in the middle of it, Harry lay in a pool of his own blood.
Then the doors to the station were literally pulled off their hinges as a group of your rushed in. "Mom, so much blood, fear...BROTHER! HE'S OVER THEIR!" The girl shouted.
Jonathan, was covered in Harry's blood and the Lycan's. The Lycan had come out of no-where but Harry had somehow anticipated that and a handgun and sword were in his hands before he could draw his wand. Jonathan heard Harry call something out in Hungarian and swung the blade with a grace that could only be inherited by someone whose family had used blades before and effortlessly bisected the Lycan in half.
However that triggered a chain reaction, it appeared that the Lycan's had been gathering in the station for a while, somehow they knew that the target was going to pass through. They had miscalculated just how skilled the target was. But one of the Lycans got a lucky scratch him flooring the boy and as he went for the kill but the girl managed to get one of the guns free, squeezed the trigger and the Lycan perished its body flooded with Silver Nitrate.
"Harry stay with me." Jonathan said as he began to bandage Harry's wounds which were rapidly healing as Katie tried not to cry, both at her crush's state and the fact she had just killed someone.
"Unless, I receive hospital treatment in the next forty minutes or transformed. I'm dead." Harry rasped coughing slightly.
"Arszlan, is that you?" The woman asked as she strode over.
"You have the wrong person...His name's Harry." Katie replied.
"Backpack...Birth Certificates...trench coat pocket... left side...blood sealed." Harry gasped as he felt himself about to enter Death's embrace.
Selene rummaged through the pocket and pulled out a minaturised rucksack which quickly enlarged itself, she pulled her hand back to realise it had her blood on it. "What sort of protections are protected by blood?" Selene asked curiously.
"Serious protective charms." Katie said tentatively, Selene nodded and pulled out an envelope that she saw read 'Birth certificate'. Her eyes widened as she saw the false and real certificates and the note written by Arszlan's adopted parents.
"I'm Selene Corvin, Harry or Arszlan's real mother." Selene said calmly, inside she was panicking as she saw her son bleeding out. She concentrated and her eyes turned blue.
"Arszlan, you need to be brave for me."
Just then Lupin arrived. Remus Lupin had been feeling on top of the world recently. He had been found by someone that resembled Colin Creevey from his time as DADA professor at Hogwarts.
(Flashback)
"Come with me, spawn of Fenrir."
Lupin nodded, the moment the pair turned into an alleyway, Lupin struck. "I hate that son of a bitch for what he did to me...Call me anything related to that man again, I will kill you...Who are you? What do you want? Don't lie to me." Lupin growled, his eyes turning amber.
"Easy friend. Please put my associate down and we can have a chat. I'm Rupert by the way. Rupert Greyback and yes, not everyone in the Greyback family likes my dear elder brother, unsophisticated wanker." Rupert said placing his hand on Remus's arm and gently coaxed the wolf away from Lupin's conscious.
"What do you want with me?"
"Arszlan Corvinus Corvin or Harry James Potter. It is because of his legacy as the descendent of the third son of Alexander Corvinus the..."
"True immortal. Or first immortal depending on the archives. Had two sons recorded William and Marcus. William became the first werewolf and Marcus the first vampire. What does Harry have to do with it? There was no third son."
Rupert snorted "Because the elder brothers were ashamed that the youngest was mortal. But he was the most special. Those who survive the bite of a vampire or werewolf die if bit by the other except for those of the third son."
Lupin nodded "How do I stop being a Lycan?"
"You survived my brothers bite, which is a good sign. All you need to do is let the wolf free in your body and mind and I'll bite you."
(End Flashback)
Lupin had survived the second bite. He had told Rupert under no circumstances was he going to help them assist in killing Harry and joining Voldemort.
"Remus, we have a feud with the vampires. Vampires have no interest in being dragged into this wizards feud any more than we do. Our cousins and ourselves much prefer keeping ourselves out. We want Arszlan as one of us a Lycan that will lead us to victory over the Vampires." Rupert said, with a grin.
Lupin realised how Voldemort had swayed so many to his cause. The man started off with amazing charisma and charm before relying on fear and terror.
"I could definitely get used to the changes between a werewolf and lycan...Many thanks Rupert, I'll send information when I can but I can ensure that Dumbledore will not come poking around for you." Lupin said before walking out of the station and apparating away.
He had now arrived in Manchester after over hearing that Arszlan had been in Diagon Alley. He arrived on the scene just as the fight had ended. "Hold it." He shouted making his way over to Arszlan who was bleeding out rapidly.
Then he noticed the glowing eyes of the woman leaning over him. "Step away vampire." He growled drawing his wand.
"My name Lycan is Selene. I am his biological mother." Selene responded her fangs sharpening.
"Professor, Selene please stop. Harry or Arszlan is bleeding out here." Katie said attracting their attention back to the current situation.
"Mom, this is Remus Lupin...family friend...of adopt..ed parents...Saved my life a few times." Harry panted.
"You want to save my son? I need to bite him to save his life, if you bite him as well, he'll become much more powerful." Selene said before biting into Arszlan's neck with Remus doing the same on the other side.
Harry immediately began thrash and convulse as the Lycan and Vampire venom shot through his veins. Harry through the agony found his magical core beginning to warp and change. He began to turn pale, paler than normal that Katie thought was possible.
His short messy hair, lengthened and remained its messiness, though Katie thought it was still attractive. Harry suddenly bolted upright his eyes fading from emerald green to dark green almost black due to the charm placed on Harry's eyes which had altered them to emerald green.
"Lupin, get his stuff and follow us." Selene ordered, picking her son up in her arms and took the hand guns and stored them inside her trench coat.
Katie stared as the six turned and made their way towards the exit of Manchester station. "Kat, if you want him go and get him. Know we'll always love you despite the choices you may make." Katie nodded hugged her parents, grabbed her backpack which had her shrunken school trunk in and hastily followed them.
"Lord Michael, a mortal is following us. What should we do?" Asked David his hand going for his whips.
"What does she want?"
"Wait, please." Katie pleaded catching up to them as they began to pile into a stolen 4x4.
"What do you want?" Snarled David his eyes flickering blue.
Katie stared impassively at the young vampire "I care about Arszlan, I intend to stick by him if it's all possible."
"Let's go." Selene instructed with Katie clambering into the back, propping Arszlan's head in her lap.
"Who are you? I mean what is your relation to my big brother?" Katie looked behind her to see a little girl who looked like her mother except she had the other male's hair.
"I'm Katie Bell, I was on your brothers Quidditch team. Quidditch is a weird sport to explain and easier to learn if you observed. Aside from that he and I became close friends, I learnt about his home life and when things were down, I stuck by him. I remained his closest friend in the shadows whilst Ron and Hermione, his original friends only learnt what he wanted them to learn."
The girl nodded "I'm Eve by the way and he's coming around." Eve said as Arszlan stirred and sat up.
Arszlan groaned and twisted slightly disturbing the tense silence with the sound of bones popping because of his sudden movement. He delved into his mind and sent out a mental probe which washed over everyone allowing him to learn everything that had just happened. He had subconsciously delved into this skill when he had acquired the handguns and instinctively used them along with wielding Vilagitas to bisect the Lycan in half.
"Where am I? Is this a dream?" Arszlan asked blurrily as he sat himself upright in his seat.
"It's no dream Lord Arszlan…Currently you're in a seven seater 4x4 heading towards a property that is still in your parent's name. I'm Daniel by the way a Corvinus-Vampire Hybrid rendering myself immune from the sun much like your mother…You on the other hand are just like your father and sister a hybrid. Except you are predominately a vampire/lycan hybrid compared to a lycan/vampire hybrid." Daniel explained mentally, catching the probe and turning it into a telepathic communication channel.
Arszlan grinned "Mom, dad what took you so long to find me? Not that I'm complaining but it seems strange that it had taken you almost fifteen years to find me."
Michael's stomach churned as did Selene's. "It's not like we didn't want to find you. It was more like we didn't remember you existed. When you were born the last thing I remember was a flash of fire and an old man with an outrageous dress sense holding a wooden stick. He said something about 'Your child is destined for great things and must come with me. I'm sorry for what I'm about to do. OBLIVIATE!"
Arszlan snarled in anger, wings erupted from his back, his eyes turned from green on black to black on green, his muscles thickened and his teeth sharpened into canines. "DUMBLEDORE! I know who that man was Anya, Apa…Rest assured he will pay."
"Arszlan, you need to calm down. We have Katie Bell with us. She's not like us." Remus said calmly his eyes turning a cloudy blue.
Arszlan immediately regained control and slumped into his seat and turned to her. "How are you? Sorry for scaring you for the bleeding out and all of that."
Katie shook her head amazed. She was amazed at how enraged Arszlan could get and the moment he noticed her became as bashful as a lamb. "Arszlan, why is it…"
"You want to know why you can bring my son out of a desire for blood without being harmed?" Michael said with a wolfish grin.
Katie could only nod and wonder how Arszlan's father had managed to second guess her.
"Mental link, all of us save for you have turned the mental probe into a temporary telepathic link…I'm Michael, the first lycan/vampire and descendant of Alexander Corvinus."
Katie nodded "Yeah how does that explain anything?"
"Basically Vampires and Lycans tend to find someone known as the 'one' that person in essence can calm the transformed down from the scariest of rages. If the person is mortal, she has an aura you could say that makes other members of the other half's species either stay away or protect them."
Katie's eyes widened. Soon enough the 4x4 slowed to a stop and they piled out in front of a cosy looking house. "It's a bit small but we'll manage." Michael said as he fished out a key and entered.
The house was covered in dust but as Harry looked around he definitely remembered vague things about the house. "Welcome home Arszlan. Welcome home." Said Selene hugging her eldest in a way that only a true mother could.
