Power of Will

By: Jodelle

So serious, I've got to take you home again tonight
'Cause right now you paralyze me
With your smile
As your wings discard their feathers on the ground
I see a halo, oh oh, up above you
My crazy angel
My crazy angel

Chapter 4: Acceptance of Love

Fate was evil Harry thought as he stared transfixed at Dracos' back. He knew he'd liked Draco a little before they'd been put through their little adventures but he wouldn't put it past Fate to have laced his tea with love potion what with the way he couldn't stop watching Draco's every move. He was about to let out a scream of frustration when Draco turned in his hawk form.

Harry sighed with relief as Dracos' hawk form was in no way sexy. He drooled a little imagining his Draco, as a man, with a body built like a brick wall and his sunshine colored hair. Shaking his head Harry morphed into a blackwolf with emerald green eyes. He noted that this shape he took felt like a second skin rather than awkward as it used to feel.

Harry scanned the sky for Draco to see him circling above their soon to be old campsite and looking down on him with Harry recognized annoyance through their mental link. Yes, it was a weird thing having a link with someone else but even more so because Fate hadn't mentioned such a thing before throwing them out of her abode or whatever her living space was called. Did gods have houses?

Harry let loose three barks. Draco screeched in reply and they were off. Being more in shape than most people they got a lot of distance covered before they collapsed panting at the edge of Hogsmead village. Having discarded everything but a satchel of coins one per person that they'd carried with them they had no possessions.

As Harry turned back into his-self he was about to wipe his mud covered hands on his robes when Draco snatched his hand by the wrist. His expression clearly said, "Have I taught you nothing?" He said a quick spell and Harry felt his hands start to tingle with cleanliness. He smile innocently at Draco looking at him out of the corner of his eye.

"So, Talon..." Harry said trying out the name.

"Yes, Noir..."Draco said testing the name out too.

"I guess we answer only to those names from here on out." Harry said twirling his wand in his hand in a nervous gesture. Harry wondered briefly if he could be such a good actor as to fool Dumbledore when he felt like a nervous wreck.

"No duh," Draco drawled with a smirk playing on his lips. From here on out they had to go so far as to even mentally call each other by those names just in case someone better at Occlumency broke momentarily through their barriers.

-"So, Noir? I suppose you feel it too?" Talon asked picking a frayed string from his silver blue robes. He spun around quickly to make sure his money didn't make him jingle as a deterent to thieves. If they didn't know where your money was they couldn't steal it unless of course they threatened you outright with a hand it over demand at gunpoint.

You might wonder where they got all their possessions and apparently the Malfoys believed in burried treasure. One of the members of the Malfoys who had been disowned had left money behind hidden in the ground for future Malfoys who would also be disowned. Once disowned a letter had appeared to Talon telling him of the moneys location. He hadn't been sure that they'd be able to find it in this new world but their luck came through and there caked in dry earth were two satchels with fifty galleons a piece.

-Noir blushed but nodded licking his lips. Talon grinned broadly. He didn't like that he was being manipulated but he'd never been denied anyone or anything and he wasn't going to start now. Five minuted later both boys were leaning against the wall of The Three Broomsticks panting. That had been a blissful snog Noir thought glancing at the blond with a mischevious grin... now if they could rewind and repeat.

What stopped them was the sight of Voldemort...*ahem* I mean Quirrel walking through the front doors and into the Three Broomsticks. Noir growled while Talons' eyes narrowed into slits. They had a job to do so more snogging would have to wait.

They walked in the doors trailing Quirrel up to the point where he chose a table and they themselves chose a table nearby. Talon summoned a newspaper discretely taking one from a sleeping bloke at the bar and smoothed it out on the table top.

"Okay, "Talon said decicevely pointing at a small boxed in ad on the seventh page. "Position for hire Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor. Must be a minimum age of twenty, mut have an O in exit level NEWTS unless you are a foreigner or home school upon which you must take a test given by the current Headmaster. You must never have been in prison, must know wizarding etiquette so as not to dishonor the school at which you get the position, and etc. For pairs we do allow a professor to have an apprentice or co-professor. Job interviews will be held on August 10th at the Three Broomsticks at 1:00pm."

Upon hearing the front door creak open and have Dumbledore pass through Talon jumped to his feet and with all the grace & speed of a quidditch player he met Dumbledore before even the friendly barmaid could say hellow.

'Fate you better work your magic!' Talon thought fervently. Having Voldemort inside the school again would not settle well he thought replacing a look of loathing with a blank expression in the direction of Quirrel.

Offering his hand to Dumbledore Talon smiled brightly turning on the charm. Noir looked on stunned blinking owlishly before silently coming up behind Talon and taking his free hand to squeeze for comfort.

"Hello, Headmaster Dumbledore!" Talon said in his I will knock you over with charm voice. "My name is Talon Norse and this is my partner Noir Norse. We'd like to apply for the DADA position up at the school."

Dumbledore looked at their hands that were linked and back up at their faces to smile. In the shadows Quirrel knowing he'd lost the position from the way Dumbledore looked at the couple made his way to the exit. Noir couldn't stop the grin that came to his lips as he noticed the door swing open and shut loudly as the angry possessed man left.

"We were homeschooled so we graduated a little early," Noir admitted. "Being used to selfstudy we've been able to learn a lot on our own and think that with the knowledge between us we could easily teach a class with no problem."

"We hear you have another animagus on your payroll." Talon offered up slyly. "We don't like others knowing about us being unregistered because we believe it can save your life in a pinch." Talon looked into Dumbledores' eyes. "You know how it was in the war. Our parents raised us to be cautious and to always have an escape plan."

Noir smiled and held out a now gloved arm. "1, 2, 3..." And Talon was on his arm in hawk form preening. Dumbledore looked even more twinkly if that was possible as his eyes were glimmering like stars.

"Minerva will be most pleased." He admitted. "You do realize you must pass a multitude of tests but from what I've seen so far I think you've got the job."

"Now you said animagus in plural," Dumbledore said looking at Noir. Noir smiled widely and in an instant standing there was a black wolf with bright green eyes.

The couple infront of him was an enigma. They looked like a young Lucius Malfoy and James Potter but of course those two families had never gotten along so they couldn't possibly be related to them he thought trailing off.

"I invite you up to the school tomorrow to begin with the tests because seeing how you were homeschooled you must take your Newts," Dumbledore said before pausing, "And although you may not want to showing off your transformation might get you a few extra points if you're worried about your grade."

A/N: Thanks to Jolie, animehphantom, Elektra107, popping corn, and kittenonabroomstick.

I'm very grateful for the reviews. I know my story is probably lacking on the romantic side but I'm glad some people liked it anyway. I'm taking suggestions as to what people would like to happen with the relationship. How do you suppose the younger Harry and Draco will react to themselves in the next chapter?
