Chapter Three: Message In a Bottle Part Three: Search and Siege.
"There has to be a way to defeat those things," The older version of Kara stated, frustration burning in her eyes. The unsaid part of that statement was that if there was a way to defeat these things, she most certainly hadn't thought of one.
The younger version of the blonde Kryptonian placed her hand on her chin and threw her head back with a pained grimace in her eyes.
"Well...there is a way to defeat them….but it's really….let's just say that it's a pain in the ass and leave it at that, okay?" Kara the younger offered, before moving to stand next to her husband, as the Legion prepared to make their way back to the Forbidden Zone.
"My wife said it best in her elegant way," Harry commented as he sat down in a nearby chair. "We did find a couple of artifacts, one of them modified in the right way could take them down or severely weaken them at least."
"Good, zap them, then," Chloe told him, wondering what the hold up was, but Harry just fixed a beady gaze on her. The young blonde took a step back for a second due to that look and his eyes remained locked onto hers. "Yeah, I know, if it was that simple, you would have done it already, right?"
Harry gave her one of those roguish smiles that was entirely distracting and made her panties damp, so it took her a couple of seconds to shake the effects of it off. "You're catching on pretty fast. You see, the problem is that the artifact in question is kind of a paradox, like most magical artifacts tend to be."
Imra jumped in. "In the sense of…."
The older Kara interrupted her by jumping in with an explanation of her own, or the best one she could piece it together from her very sparse knowledge of magic and that was mostly theory. "Magical artifacts tend not to work in the way that you intend them to more often than not, right?"
Harry gave her the same smile he'd just giving Chloe and she paused upon seeing it, she could have sworn that it was calculating as well, but there was nothing obvious about it.
"Correct in sense that if conditions aren't exactly ideal, or the calibration of the magical artifact are off…well, everything will just be thrown off kilter if one thing is wrong," Harry said as he snapped his fingers and there was no further emphasis needed other than that. "So the same artifact that could potentially destroy the creatures….could empower them instead."
"No way! There's no way those things could be stronger!" Tinya cried out, she'd been pretty freaked out by her close encounter of the undead kind earlier that day.
"They used to be pretty weak, but time has made them stronger. Of course, if my former best friend hadn't thought that she knew more than she really did, I would have been able to herd the infected through the archway and it would not have spread as fast or as far as it did," Harry said. The best he could do was herd them to the area around Hogwarts and Hogsmeade village, then seal them in before they started going after Mundanes.
"Do you mean kill them…."
"They were already dead the moment the infection was in their body, there is no cure, I spent almost fifteen years of my life trying to find one as the infection got worse with each passing year," Harry informed them. "But no! She had to use these bloody meteor rocks that she found in the United States to try and cure them through some mad scheme, and they…."
"Meteor rocks?" Chloe asked with dread and she wanted to head desk at that news. She had her fair share of encounters with the meteor infected during her life, given that she nearly got killed by one of them about once a week for years.
"Something that you've had a problem with in the past?" Harry asked her, even if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Yes, one could say that I've had a problem with them," Chloe stated with a prominent sigh. "Many long stories, not nearly enough time to tell them all."
"Well, we don't really have time to go down memory lane right now," Kara the elder said as she leaned back. She knew how to shield herself from the meteors now, although she wondered if Clark ever learned that during his time.
It didn't matter, that was the past, this was the future, this was her new life now, and the legacy of Superman was just that, a legacy. Kara wanted to start fresh here in the future, it was time to build her own legacy.
"We're nearly approaching the Forbidden Zone," Imra stated as she peered out the windows, this time they were better prepared but at the same time, she wondered if they could be ever be prepared enough.
"I don't like this place, at all," the younger Kara whispered as Harry pulled his wife in with a one armed tight hug, an action she felt solace in.
"I know, I know, it will be fine," Harry whispered soothingly into Kara's ear as he nuzzled the top of her head and the blonde nodded.
The older Kara saw his arms wrapped around her and she would be lying if she said that she didn't imagine herself in the same place. Then again, her younger counterpart must have been no older than seventeen or eighteen, although with Kryptonians, looks could be quite deceptive.
She needed to focus on her mission, there would be plenty of time to ogle the merchandise later on.
"So, we're going to reach the Forbidden Zone in about two minutes," Imra stated as she looked over her shoulder from the pilot's seat to face Harry, who looked extremely stoic, his face void of any expression. "I trust you have a plan?"
"Yes, I have a plan, but you're going to need to trust me on this one," Harry told the group and there was a few seconds where the green eyes of the young man fixed forward.
"Trust you on…."
"Yes, trust me, it's going to be a bit rough, even though she was driven insane, she might be preparing for us, but she's got her flaws and she's not as smart as she likes to think she is or was, especially now," Harry commented. He knew that by downplaying his intelligence so as to not hurt her self-esteem during their time at Hogwarts hadn't done her any favors either.
"So, what is your plan?" Imra commented.
"We're going to need a diversion, so another team can sneak back into Hogwarts, get into the Chamber of Secrets, get a hold of the artifact before they find it and more importantly figure out what it is," Harry told them as he looked towards the girls. Chloe was naturally back at headquarters functioning as mission support. "However, they have all of the exits covered, well almost all of the exits."
Harry had a plan in place that should see them all through this, but they needed to get that artifact before the Infected did. If they used it to get stronger, than there would be no force in the world that could contain them.
"Soon, the greatest source of our powers will return and we will have strength beyond all measure once we drain every last drop out of him," A voice whispered, hollow and lacking any emotion. "I can't believe he did this to me! Turned me into this! But once I have his magic, I will be whole once more! He was part of the machine! The machine which I will rip down, and bring forth a new order from its ashes. He could have stood beside me, instead he stabbed me in the back, but with his death I will be whole once more!"
There was some grumbling at that from the other infected nearby her.
"Don't forget you stupid Mudblood! You need to cure us! Because it was your fault that we turned into this mess in the first place," A voice attempting to be sophisticated drawled, his face was sunken in and he looked hideous, not unlike a zombified ferret.
"Quite! You product of incest!" The girl hissed angrily.
"Incest, is that supposed to be a band or something?" One of the purebloods turned into a Forbidden Zone Zombie inquired to another who shrugged dumbly.
Another former pureblood shook her head. "No dumbass, incest is a particularly bad brand of aftershave."
The creature that was once alive and known as Hermione Granger wanted to bang her head into something repeatedly. She thought that Ronald Weasley was bad, but he was a scholar and a gentlemen compared to some of this crew.
Harry had sealed her in this location for one thousand years and that pissed her off. After all, he would not been nothing if it were not for her. He would have not been anything….in fact, and it was his fault that she resorted to double negatives!
Hermione recalled how Harry warned her that the meteor rocks were a stupid fucking idea and obviously, that flaw was Harry's fault! He must have sabotaged her experiment! She shook her head, due to the fact her eye sockets were sunken in and hollow she couldn't roll her eyes. She didn't blink, she didn't sleep, she merely waited.
She was Hermione Granger! She didn't make mistakes after all. She was the smartest girl in her age or any other age! That was what all of the teachers at Hogwarts told her and since they were authority figures, they had to have been telling the truth!
"You better be ready, for when they return, this time I want them captured. I'm certain that they will taste great, even if they won't taste as good as Harry Potter," The creature hissed as her discolored drool dripped from her mouth. "Don't worry, Malfoy, I will allow you to have a taste if you do not bungle this plan. I know that you've wanted take Harry Potter into your mouth for years."
Malfoy's eyes narrowed as he tried to hide the eagerness in them.
"Listen, we need to….do something with...the thing...you know what I'm talking about," One of the people stated.
"Yes, I know the thing….we need to execute our plan so it reaches a level of succession that quantifies our hard work and accomplishes our desired objective," Hermione commented in a way that she felt made her sound smart as she reached into her private stash.
'House elf, the other white meat,' she thought to herself licking her lips. She had to carefully fatten them up a little bit, but they tasted great once they were. She thought this as she chowed down on the delicious remains, drawing the residual magic from them.
Some of these house elves had a good heart, although their hearts were not as good as Luna Lovegood's, but that was beside the point.
"We've searched the Chamber high and low Gran…."
"MISTRESS! YOU ARE TO CALL ME MISTRESS!" Hermione shrieked at the top of her lungs in a high pitched and fairly annoying voice. It sounded like a dying cat in a hailstorm.
"Begging your pardon, Mistress, but Harry Potter….well he tends to…."
"Fuck over people's lives! That ungrateful bastard, I know! He fucked over mine pretty spectacularly after all!" Hermione snapped out, if it wasn't for her, Harry would have died at least seven or eight more times than he actually did.
"Well, he's hiding the object…."
"He once again denies us our right to be normal again! Perhaps he wishes to….." Hermione said and she went into a coughing fit. That last house elf didn't quite agree with her.
She was feeling a bit dizzy and she saw the hopeful eyes of the other infected circling around her, hoping that her body would give out. That way they could consume her shell for power.
She wasn't about to be taken down that easily, she was too stubborn to go down that easily. Her body might not have been as strong or durable as it once was, but she still had enough strength to stand up and do what needed to be done.
"I'm fine, leave me," Hermione hissed in anger. She was short tempered after being trapped with these dunderheads for the past one thousand years. If she did not need them as fodder to get her old life back, she would have killed them all happily.
Hermione had consumed the entire Hogwarts library in an attempt to find the knowledge that she required to return herself to life, only to find out that the answer lied within the person who caused this entire problem in the first place. Harry Fucking Potter mutated them into this and once Harry Fucking Potter had been destroyed, then she would finally be free.
At least that's what she mentally pieced together. Regardless, the brunette was not in a sound mood to begin with and her mental state was getting far worse the longer that she waited. She looked around frantically while rubbing her hands together.
"Mistress! They're approaching once more….."
"So they did uncover his body and he's returned to finish what he started," Hermione stated, as she gave a grin that showed off all of her rotting blackened teeth. "My old friend….he returns, once I break open his body, I will consume the power of the Deathly Hallows."
"Then you can use their power to restore us, right?" One of the wizards stated hopefully with a pleading look in his eyes. He was about nine years old when he was changed and thus he kept that mindset, not maturing a moment past that point, even though he had been here just as long as any of them.
"Of course," Hermione said with sickening sweetness, although she knew that she would kill every last one of them and then use the power to ensure that the world would be reformed in her own image. She came to the conclusion over the past thousand years that Riddle had the right idea, but he made the mistake of surrounding himself with idiots. The moment she took up the so called dark arts, her mind had been opened to new possibilities.
There was no question in Hermione's mind that she would destroy Harry, he was weak, mediocre at best, and ran on luck. She had saved him so many many times and if it was not for her, he would have died countless more times then he did from his first year onward.
"He approaches! Prepare yourselves, and remember the plan!" Hermione stated, eager for her class reunion.
She knew how to drain Harry's power and it would make it demeaning as possible for him.
The ship brought the Legion back into the Forbidden Zone Territory once again and once again, the waves of magic in the air had caused the ship to crash into the ground.
"Just like Harry, too stupid to not think of a different plan," Hermione stated, the abomination's eyes glowing.
"Yes, Potter is quite stupid, hanging around like a Mudblood like you for all those years."
"QUIET MALFOY!" Hermione shouted and Malfoy fell back into line. He had his own plans for Potter and he was going to overthrow this foul waste of oxygen and magic, steal her life energy as well, along with the life energy of everyone else. He would be the strongest most powerful sorcerer who ever lived for there would be no one to challenge him.
The scavengers made their way to the ship but something was wrong. There was a voice that popped up.
"Hello, the Legion is not here at the moment, please leave a message at the Earth Shattering kaboom."
No sooner had those words escape from Chloe's mouth, then the ship begin to heat up, before exploding into a furious super nova, which incinerated several of the creatures. Unfortunately, Hermione was still crafty enough have a shield up. The other infected scrambled backwards from the blast and then realized that the charred remains were up for the taking. Greed and gluttony spread through their eyes.
Then they pounced on their fellow Forbidden Zone residents, trying to consume their body and drain the energy from them.
"DON'T HOG IT ALL…."
"You idiots, you fools, you imbeciles, you dunderheads, you pinheads, you peabrains, you STUPID, STUPID, PEOPLE!" Hermione howled angrily. "STUPID, STUPID, STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!"
Hermione punted the decapitated head of one of the destroyed Forbidden Zone residents into the distance.
"Can't you see he's trying to trick us…."
"Oh! You think you're so smart or something…."
"Smarter than everyone in here put together! You all would have eaten each other had it not been for me!" Hermione hissed looking like a nasty snake as she glared at them with beady yellow eyes.
The shell of Draco Malfoy shook his head in disgust. If he hated one thing, that was someone who had a self deluded sense of their own worth and an ego to match. Those people were pompous and he hated arrogant people, it was his personal pet peeve. Where did they get off strutting around like they owned the place anyway? It was quite frankly disgusting.
"Just stick with the plan! He's got to be around here somewhere," Hermione grumbled, through her gritted, rotting teeth. Black tar dripped from her mouth.
Suddenly, two of the heads of the Forbidden Zone Residents clonked together with their blood spurting out of the side.
"Spread out, they can't be far!" Hermione demanded, she refused to believe that Harry Fucking Potter, the fourth most stupid boy in her year at Hogwarts, would have been able to defeat her, Hermione Jean Granger! The smartest witch of her age or any other!
"Oh, Hermione, Hermione, honestly, why don't you go to the library?" Harry's voice taunted from afar and she looked around, trying to find it. "Honestly, Hermione, you'd find all the answers in the library!"
"You….this is all your fault….I used to be amazing…."
"Well, perhaps you were, but you always did have a slightly inflated sense of your self-worth and a narcissistic need to show off your knowledge, although we all have our quirks," Harry stated with a smile. "Let's delve where the problem started, your childhood….well, it always seemed pretty odd that you'd find any excuse to spend time away from your parents and you wiped their memories when you had a good enough excuse and never restored them, did you?"
"You have no right to judge what I done…"
"Oh, I see, you did it for the greater good, just like your hero, isn't that right?" Harry asked with a smile, pleased to see that he was pissing Hermione off. He taunted them and they ambled forward, but she reeled them back.
"NO! DON'T TOUCH HIM, HE'S MINE!"
"Jesus, Hermione, switch to decaf, it's a lot better for you," Harry commented as he shook his head, waiting for the girl to try and attack him. However, he was just merely the distraction, bait for lack of a better word, at least until the moment they could liberate the artifact.
The fact that the thing that was once Hermione hadn't figured out that out yet, meant that her intelligence had degraded to a nearly subhuman level and given how she was only intelligent compared to the wand waving Neanderthals, that really was kind of sad.
"Come on Hermione! You know, you're supposed to be the smartest girl of your age, surely you can defeat someone who was a C Plus wizard at best?" Harry asked as he watched Hermione, bracing himself to bolt the moment things got ugly.
Anything that he shared with his former classmate, well she wasn't in there anymore. Of course, the mutation had cause the absolute worst aspects of Hermione's personality and she had many, to multiply dozens of times over. Anything decent about her was gone forever.
"I'm going to…."
"No, Hermione, you're not going to do anything," Harry stated as he knocked down several of them like they were dominoes. The bright lights connected with them and Harry braced himself as all of them moved over towards him, like he was the top dish on the menu.
Back inside the school, Kara, Kara, Tinya, and Imra kept making their way forwards, aware of the fight that was going on outside of the castle walls.
"He'll be fine, he always gets out of these stupid situations that he never should have survived, without a scratch on him," The younger Kara stated as she looked over her shoulder towards the other girls. "He drew most of them out."
Tinya nodded, that was good, she honestly didn't trust herself to utter one single word. Mostly, because her throat was not working the way that she wanted it to and words failed her.
"He said it would be down below," The elder Kara commented as she tried to scan with X-Ray vision, although it was much harder to do it inside this school than it was anywhere else.
"Yes," Imra told Kara and again she was an immense bundle of nerves. She turned to the younger model only for the unasked question to be answered.
"Don't worry, I know what it is and have a pretty good idea where he was hiding it," The younger blonde stated absentmindedly, she had half of her attention directed to the battle outside. She knew that if that witch did anything to her Harry, she would tear the girl's head off and stick it where the sun didn't shine, then she'd throw her into the sun.
She was annoyed by the existence of that monster on general principle, she wasn't what she once was to begin with. She was a zombie who had distorted memories of the original.
"One level down,"
They nodded, they felt this was putting a lot of pressure on them, but they had to trust their instincts and trust that they would all get out of this alive.
Imra held up her hand and the other three females paused, curious.
'Harry, how are you holding up out there?' The younger Kara whispered to her husband, nerves racking through her body.
'Oh you know, with two legs, two feet, things like that,' Harry continued as he tried to lighten the mood and he took out the zombies with ballistic fury. 'Well, I'm tricking them into attacking each other, the magic has degraded whatever intelligence that they had left and I know how to push all of her buttons, you want to go to your right, by the way.'
"So, to our right," The younger Kara told them as she let in one breath and let out the other breath.
"Right, to the right," Imra stated. "So what are we….."
"That," the younger Kara told them as she pulled out a box that could be mistaken for simple rubbish and opened it slightly, to reveal a golden ring with no distinctive features or markings whatsoever. In fact, it was an object that could have been considered a dime a dozen.
"You know, I was looking for something more extraordinary," Imra remarked dryly.
"Well, sorry to disappoint you," Younger Kara dead panned without any emotion in her voice.
There was a huge explosion that resounded outside as Harry and Hermione were fighting, or to be more accurate, Harry kept dodging out of the way of Hermione's quite feral and uncoordinated attacks.
"I thought you couldn't apparate on Hogwarts grounds, genius?" Harry taunted her as he popped out of the way and Hermione once again smashed into the ground. The Whomping Willow was once here but now it was a rotted stump.
"Stand still….."
Hermione found herself contained in a golden cage and she was trapped, her eyes burning as she hissed and scratched at Harry.
"You couldn't bring yourself to crush me, could you?" Hermione asked. "You couldn't even kill Voldemort! He had to slip on a banana peel and you got lucky. You always get lucky!"
Harry knew that he had to find a way to kill this menace but she'd consumed the most magic out of every other infected. She also tested the meteor rocks on herself and got the most direct exposure. Hermione headbutted the cage, showing off her rotting teeth, as she tried to break free. She looked like an animal and she needed to be put hand down.
"You know Hermione, proper dental hygiene is a must, your parents would be ashamed of you right now…."
"DON'T EVER TALK ABOUT MY PARENTS!" Hermione howled like a demented harpy and if there were any windows left to shatter, they would have broken then.
"Oh, the parents that you condemned to death after wiping their memories without their consent and knowledge," Harry reminded her. "Honestly, Hermione, did you really think that one through? Their own daughter….that would be something a pureblood would do, something so short sighted and foolhearted."
"Just you wait, Harry Potter! You better let me out of this cage so I can kill you!" Hermione howled, beyond all logic and reason. Her mind was completely gone and Harry could tell that she was about out of the cage. It was almost like she had some help or perhaps the charm was not applied as strongly as he wanted it to be.
The Legion Girls had escaped Hogwarts, just as Hermione burst out of the cage, ready to rip Harry to shreds.
The elder Kara flew forward at super speed to punch Hermione in the face, causing her to be taken off guard. She followed it up by grabbing her and then curb stomping her into the ground.
"That's just going to make her angry, I'm sealing the gate, it won't last as long but that should keep her and the rest of them in, until we have a more permanent way to keep them there," Harry told them and he could see that they had the ring, which was good.
A blast of light engulfed Harry and the girls as they disappeared from the scene. Hermione dropped to her knees in shock upon witnessing this. The other infected backed off as she stared at her hands and her body quivered. She looked over towards a blank spot on the grounds, her eyes wide.
"FORGIVE ME!" She wailed in despair, although there was confusion as to who she was talking to.
The moment she recovered from her anger, they were going to get blamed about this somehow. All scrambled to try and not be in the front of the pack.
"We got out of there, alive, I guess one could say," Harry concluded tensely.
The younger Kara offered a frustrated sigh. "Yes alive, I guess there's that. They aren't going to stay in there for long."
The elder Kara leaned back. Without realizing it, she sat a little closer to Harry than she might have anyone else. There was just something about him that put her at ease.
"So, this ring….it could stop them for good?" Chloe asked, trying to verify a theory that she had about it.
Harry nodded. "Yes, it should….or it could empower them even more. Trust me, the infection would have spread eventually, but it would have been far more manageable without those rocks and the ritual Hermione attempted. Those rocks…."
"We know they cause problems, there's an entire archive about the meteor rock infected, some of them went on to live mostly normal lives, but many perished, there is a list of tragedies a mile long," Imra told them as she crossed her legs, her bare feet swaying.
"And this might be the most tragic of them all," Kara the younger commented as she blew her hair out of her face.
"She was once…..well, I won't deny that she did have her issues, but you tend to overlook certain flaws with your friends, and in this case, my friends had many flaws," Harry concluded. That girl she once was, was long since dead, now there was this distorted abomination, who had a face somewhat similar to hers and some rather fractured memories.
"Welcome to the club, we have cookies," Chloe stated with a grin as all of them laughed.
Harry offered her a smile, and shook his head. "So, are there many more members of the Legion?"
"Yes, a few, you might get to meet them, right now they're on various missions," Chloe concluded and Harry smiled.
'A lot more attractive females, like these three I hope!' The younger Kara thought to herself gleefully. The talent she scoped out already was perfect, given that her and Harry were essentially Kryptonian royalty, they were entitled to a Collective. It was only fair and they had met a few interesting women during their travels through time.
"I'll look forward to meeting them all then," Harry concluded with a grin and Chloe could not help but get caught up in their eyes. "That is, if you'd like me to stick around?"
"Of course! We'd like you to stick it to us!...Around….stick around...because I mean…..it's not we have the knowledge that we need to take care of those Forbidden Zone people like you do," Chloe stated as she kept her eyes firmly locked onto him, despite her rambling speech just then.
Harry's smile got even wider as he kept his eyes on her. "Okay, that's pretty much fair, you've got a point there."
"There is more than enough space, at one point, part of this place housed a super hero team that was virtually unlimited, although a few unfortunate events have thinned out the hero population and the Forbidden Zone is not the only area of Earth that is not fit for any human habitation," Imra explained. "After Superman…."
"What's a Superman?" Kara the younger asked curiously.
"My dork of a cousin, don't worry about him," Kara the elder offered calmly without missing a beat.
"So is he…."
"You know, Kal-El?" Kara the elder pointed out, hoping that the girl would take the hint.
"Sorry, I don't know who Kal-El is," Kara the younger stated with confusion in her eyes.
"Well, there are an infinite number of alternate universes out there, so some of them may have had universes where Kal might have never been born, never made it to Earth, was born a female, or did make to Earth but died due to a ship malfunction," Chloe rattled off without missing a beat.
"Sure, let's go with that," Tinya stated, the multiverse was not a fun area to try and wrap one's head around.
"How did you two get together anyway?" Chloe asked, the archives never said anything about Harry Potter being married.
"Harry found me in stasis in the Department of Mysteries when he was searching for artifacts to deal with the infection," Kara the younger stated. "We pretty much bonded the moment that we touched…."
"No offense, that sound like a really stupid fan fiction cliché," Chloe offered but the younger girl glared at her and she threw her hands back.
"I don't expect anyone to understand it! RAO be damned if I understand it half of the time," The younger Kara commented with a smile. "That's just what happened."
"We got married, given that she was the only female at the time that didn't want to rip my throat out for insane reasons, that was a good thing," Harry continued.
"I'm sure that you must have been popular in your world," Imra pressed on and Harry just smiled at her.
"A sorcerer never reveals his secrets, my lady," Harry stated mysteriously, leaving them to guess about which girls he may or may not have slept with during his time at Hogwarts was half of the fun. Given the fictional works in question was a children's series; one would think that he had taken a vow of celibacy or never gone through puberty.
That was fiction, Harry knew what the reality was.
"So, Kara….the younger one that is," Chloe stated as she slowly looked at her. "Are you…."
"I'm fine, if that's what you're asking," The younger version of Kara commented, but it had been a long time since she was able to spend some private time with her husband. "We're going to have to do an in depth study of the ring."
"Providing it's not another useless hunk of tin and a dead end," Harry added in frustration. If the Veil had not been destroyed before he got there, that could have still been an option. He was doing an in depth study of the Veil after Sirius went through it and it may not have been a portal to the afterlife per say although by this point, it was very likely Sirius was dead.
"Well, I'm sure that you'll have plenty of time to study it here," Chloe said with a warm smile.
'And because you want plenty of time to study the real deal up close,' Imra thought to herself and to Chloe as well, even though she was trying to hide her own interest in Harry Potter.
"Well, we'll see what happens, it should prove to be a very interesting, if you don't mind, my wife and I are going to retire for the evening," Harry told them.
The girls couldn't help but wonder how old Harry was really. While, he resembled your average twenty one year old, there was a sense that he lived much longer.
It would have been kind of rude to ask someone about their age all things considered.
"So, having two Kara's around here might get a bit confusing," Chloe suggested and there were some nods in agreement. "One of you might want to think of an alias or something."
"I'll figure something out," the elder Kara commented. While normally, two girls of the same name wouldn't be too much of a problem, if the two girls didn't look pretty much exactly the same, except one was a bit more mature.
Kara, the younger, sat down on the bed waiting for her husband. She had been trapped for a thousand years but the two of them were free now. Even though they weren't truly free until the situation with the infect was resolved. She was wearing a tight white top that hugged her breasts firmly, alongside a nice pair of tight shirts that snugly hugged her sexy ass. Her dazzling legs were on full display. Harry looked her over and she smiled at him.
"So, what do you think?"
"Beautiful, as always," Harry told her as he was wearing nothing but a nightshirt and boxer shorts. Kara looked at her husband with pure adoration in her eyes and a wide smile on her face.
"A charmer, as always," She commented lightly as Harry sat down next to her. "So….this has been an interesting night….older alternate universe version of myself or maybe I'm the younger alternate universe version of her. Of course, alternate timelines tend to make my head hurt."
Harry chuckled. "Tell me about it."
Kara frowned. "I believe that I just did"
"I know honey, it's just, I can't believe that they haven't killed her yet," Harry whispered as he wrapped his arm around Kara and pulled her in.
"Do you think that there's any part of….well her left inside that abomination?" Kara whispered to Harry.
"Hermione Granger died, that's just a moldering corpse with all of her flaws and none of her positive attributes," Harry told Kara with focused expression. It would be easier to do what he had to do when he realized that his former friend was not in there any longer "So, apparently you might have had a cousin."
"Might have, but didn't," Kara offered with a smile. "Then again, given that Jor-El was assassinated in his lab and my mother had no sisters, I suspect that I'll never know what that was like."
"No, I suppose not," Harry commented to the blonde as he pulled her towards him.
"Your mother…."
"Yeah, from what I found out about her, it made going to the fucking Dursleys even more of a bitter pill to swallow, my blood was the only thing that was supposed to have kept me safe," Harry told her. "Which means, Dumbledore could have put me anywhere on Earth and it still would have worked but naturally, he had his own world view and anything outside of that worldview was something that he woefully misunderstood. He understood two colors, black and white. He wished to redeem that which could not be redeemed."
In the end, Snape was still a creepy, depraved stalker, no matter what kind of sob story he told. In the end, Draco Malfoy was merely an irredeemable little ferret. In the end, Ron Weasley, was a jealous douchebag that wanted what he couldn't have, that much was proven with what he did. His own sister, that was something that turned Harry's stomach, Ginny was not without her flaws but what Ron did to her, he couldn't condone that at all.
"Har, everything will be okay, won't it?" Kara whispered in his ear, nuzzling up against his face.
"Yes, Kara, love, it will be, we'll stop the curse for good this time," Harry offered her and Kara straddled his lap, so that she was facing him.
"Make love to me, please, it's been too long," Kara whispered in his ear.
It had technically been only a couple of days from her perspective and not several thousand years, but he wasn't about to argue.
Harry captured her lips in a smoldering kiss which she returned. The blonde's lips hungrily met his as Harry ran his hands gently all over her body. She tensed up for a moment but she knew that Harry would take good care of her. His hands reached underneath her shirt to feel her up as he kissed the side of her neck, as he turned around and tilted her back onto the bed.
The older Kara watched the entire adventure from the door, unable to tear her eyes away. The screams of pleasure from her younger doppelgangers mouth had turned her on and seeing what Harry did to her, that caused her to drool from both sets of lips.
It took every bit of self-control that she had not to try and join the show. She looked down and saw that her left hand was subconsciously shoved down her panties. Slowly, she lifted up her hand and looked at it, eying it and slowly her tongue licked her hand. She tasted the delicious juices that were coating it and thought about what he would taste like in her mouth and other parts of her body.
Her nipples got hard to the point where they nearly ripped the fabric of her shirt. She felt a warmth pulse between her thighs and she tried to get out of there before she was caught. She didn't want them to think that she was some kind of pervert or something.
She subconsciously started to play with herself once again as she imagined being shoved against the wall and Harry having his wicked way with her from every angle.
'Ohh, fuck I need a cold shower,' she managed as she tried to get down the hallway. Her panties and skirt were utterly soaked and it felt like she was bombarded by super powerful pheromones.
Any friction against her womanhood caused her to want to cum. It seemed like nothing that she could do could stop this burning desire that rose through her body.
She managed to make it to the shower in time, although what she did in there was not clean at all.
