The Calm before the Storm

Episode XXII

New Powers

Nanoha and Cassy were amazed as they were carried through the jungle like royalty and soon into a large opening which contained a whole village with bamboo and straw huts scattered all over with men, women (with markings) and children (without markings) doing their thing. The women wore beautiful silk robes of varying colours while the men (minus the hunters carrying them) wore silk tunics and trousers. However, none of the people except the old man seemed to have heard of shoes or socks.

When the other villagers saw them they cautiously came over as the men knelt so that both Cassy and Nanoha could easily climb down before the men quickly moved off to take away the carriage.

"These are daughters of Poseidon," one of the hunters suddenly spoke loud and proud to gasps from the large crowd and both girls blushed as they all dropped to their hands and knees in prayer. "Please they are soaked from their trip through our storm; we must have them new clothes, the finest we can offer and food in their bellies."

Nanoha perked up brightly at the mention of food and rubbed her empty tummy. "Great I'm starving."

"Please My Lady's," a woman in her mid-thirties with light brown hair and slender form approached bowing. "My daughter and I would gladly put you up for as long as you need, as well as bath, clothe, and feed you, please it shall be our greatest honour," she said as she gestured her daughter, Cassy would put the very tan (brown skinned) teens age at around fifteen, sixteen at the oldest, and looked like a younger and more slender version of her mother, though has a huge bust that even made Nanoha blush.

Harry was lying on his bed in his dorm room alone, relaxing with the cool breeze from the open window… his thoughts moving a mile a second. He was worried about his friends, and even more so about Ginny. It's all of this crap happening, it's driving him bonkers. Seriously, can't Fudge and the UK Ministry just get a clue?

In addition, Ginny had found out about him kissing Tonks, and when she confronted him about it, she wasn't even angry. She had said as long as he is hers then kissing a friend isn't too much to worry about.

Though, she did give him the evil eye for a moment. She didn't even give him a chance to explain. He got the impression that it was really bugging her, and if he did it again, he would surely get his ass kicked.

He sighed at the thought. In retrospect though his misdeed with Miss. Tonks was nothing as all of the bull-crap with the UK Ministry was spread all over the papers along with, (in the Prophet only) some really gruesome pictures of some of the people Harry and Snape killed in the Ministry.

Harry has to wonder about all of the crap he has to put up with, and feels that it might be better if he just slaughters all of the diseased sheep in the UK to get rid of the hassle they cause.

He shook his head at that thought. That really wouldn't do anything but make those he spares fear him, and that's Voldemort's game, not his. Harry wants people to follow him of their own free will, not because he guilt's them with bull-crap about some greater good, and certainly not because he could crush them under shoe.

Harry is just thankful that he got Amanda back from the UK Ministry, and she's now safely locked away in the fourth year girls' dorm with Tess, Abby, and Ginny. In addition, he got the bonus of a Celestial Item from the incompetent Minister, which is quite crazy.

How did Fudge even find it? It isn't something easily acquired, and he just hopes the other six will be safe, but doubts it.

Harry frowned in thought, because Voldemort was keeping his end of their bargain, but it seems that the UK Ministry is making it harder. It's only a matter of time until Voldemort conquers them, and all for the better Harry says. Sometimes it's better to take the lesser of two evils, and in a world where Voldemort is the lesser… well something is seriously messed up.

Something felt missing as Harry swung his legs of his bed and stood. He then strode straight to and through the door, leading to the balcony he climbed up onto the edge looked down from his third floor room and jumped.

He fell a few feet then shot off into the sky with a sonic boom. He flew above the clouds, closed his eyes peacefully and glided gently from side to side, enjoying the peace of the sky.

He felt the wind rushing through his hair as he soared further onwards the day was bright and happy, he could even hear the soft chirping of song birds singing in the trees below.

Then he slowly felt a chill run down his spine. He stopped to get his bearings, floating in the sky, looking in every direction. He was miles out at sea; he appeared to be above a massive luxurious island, with cliffs and jungle, and white sandy beaches.

He flew towards the centre of the mass of beautiful land. He must have flown quite far from Salem without realising. In the middle of the island next to a sparkling blue lagoon, and perfect white sand beach, Harry comes face to face with the most magnificent, and massive castle he had ever lay witness to. Its size easily ten, twenty times the size of Hogwarts, and he can feel incredible powers within so it might just be even bigger on the inside.

The castle was atop some mighty cliffs with a lake that spilled into a waterfall that landed in the huge lagoon at the bottom.

Harry landed in front of the castle, in the main court yard of cobbled stones of grey with a small working fountain in the centre. The place looked clean, polished, well kept, and inviting.

Though, he couldn't feel the presence of any life. He walked up to the giant sized entrance doors, and was about to attempt to push the doors open, when they swung open without even a single creak unlike the Hogwarts front doors.

He took a deep breath to steady himself, and stepped into a dark chamber. As soon as his foot touched the ground torches all around ignited showing him his surroundings and his jaw dropped open.

He was in a huge entrance chamber of marble stained in red and black with wooden panels walls.

In dead centre opposite the entrance doors, wide stairs with a fluffy red carpet along the centre, leading to the second level. Two more doors almost as big as the front doors, and each side of him leading up to the second floor behind him smaller narrower polished red stained wooden stairs, and landing balconies seven stories high ran up the chamber walls, all with several doors leading off to unknown parts of the caste with similar staircases.

In the centre of the marble floor: a huge gold rimmed circle with a back Phoenix and a gold Dragon chasing each other, nearly taking up the whole space with gold or black flames dancing around them, almost looking alive. The ceiling is domed with crystal, making light dance off of the walls.

He felt a weird tingle, all through his body suddenly starting him. He looked at his arms to find he was wearing new clothes. He was wearing black leather robs and Dragon Hyde boots, along with normal cotton black trousers and t-shirt. His new trousers reminded him of the ones the non-mage military might ware. He saw on his chest on the left hand side, a small gold rimmed circle with the golden Dragon and black Phoenix.

"Welcome home," a voice said from behind. Harry span round ready for a fight, a man stood by the now closed doors beaming at Harry. "My Lord, it is so great to finally meet you!" the man bowed, as he spoke in a submissive tone.

Harry took a few steps back, hundreds of questions passed through his mind before he settled for one. "What do you mean home?" he asked, the man seemed, hardly even there - he was transparent and not truly there, not even a ghost, he was something else… nothing.

"This is the home of the Dragon Phoenix," the man said honestly.

Harry suddenly realised that this man looked ancient, maybe even older than Dumbledore, Harry thought for a moment

'If this is the home to the Dragon Phoenix then… then I have a home.'

The old spectre smiled kindly and nodded.

"How did I get here?" Harry asked in curiosity.

The old man smirked at him. "You flew did you not My Lord?" he asked.

"Yes," Harry agreed slowly. "But how did I find this place?"

"Quite simple young Lord," he replied. "You are the Dragon Phoenix… of course you can find your home, without too much trouble, if any at all. It is in your instincts My Lord to always know the way home."

Harry just shrugged it off as one of those bazaar things about magic. "Then who are you?" he asked the old man in curiosity and confusion.

"I am but a humble messenger My Lord, nothing but a servant, a guide," he said.

The old man looked as though he had not met a human in centuries. Harry left his curiosity wanting as the old massager continued.

"You are to come here, and bring your most loyal of companions," he stated it like it was in part an order as well as in part a request.

Harry frowned at the old man quite confused now. "Why?" he asked. "Who do I have to bring?"

The old man chuckled, shaking his head in a laughing manner. "You already know My Lord… that you do. However, in times within your future more will come with utmost loyalty and devotion. It is requested by the spirits that you are to them what they need. It is not your duty, or responsibility, but who you are."

"I-I don't understand!" he replied, sounding frustrated rather than annoyed. He was frowning until his eyes suddenly widened. "It's nearly time isn't it?" he demanded but the spectre did not reply. "I can feel it, the Coming of the Storm. The devastation it could bring."

"The Storm does come My Lord," he replied solemnly.

"When? How long until it's here?" he demanded heatedly.

The old man's face fell. "I cannot tell, but feel it, feel within your own heart and you will know!"

"It's already here!" he spoke with a shudder down his spine as the old man looked at him in sadness. "But not fully," he continued in hope. "B-but, maybe two or three years are all we have until Terra is brought down upon the Earth."

Cassy was blushing deeply as she was naked, sat on a stool next to the equally naked Nanoha. Cassy was at least trying to hide her bits, but Nanoha had no shame, and Cassy can see why from her perfect body, and lightly toned muscles that are deceptively small. To her small perky breasts, Nanoha had laughed saying they're too small, but at least they're bigger than Cassy's tiny things.

They were in the women's bath house, and it was nice, perfectly natural and all, but they had to be washed down before they could get in. However, Evee, the sixteen year old brown skinned girl with huge bust had insisted on washing them down of all the dirt caking their body's while her seamstress mother had already measured them up and was making them some new clothes. Though, they do have dry clothes in their scrolls she insisted.

Cassy held her silly teenage hormone, silently reprimanding them as Evee's soap sodded fingers are rubbing gently all over her back before she moved around to her legs. Nanoha was already soaped up, now waiting for the rinsing. It had been hard not to make it obvious she was watching as the older girl was rubbing her friend all over. She even felt that Nanoha had enjoyed it.

It was hard to try to keep calm when Evee's fingers brushed up her tummy and over her now very sensitive tiny boobies, and back down. Though, it was even harder when her fingers rubbed soap between her legs, and it didn't help that Nanoha was blatantly watching.

However, she sighed in relief as Evee finished up and got a bucket of warm water and rinsed off Nanoha, before rinsing off her with a smile. Cassy looked at the girl as all she wore was a linen towel barely covering her body.

"My Mistresses," she said with a bow. "We can now enter the water. It is at a wonderful temperature," she told them. "And it has wonderful healing properties."

"Thanks, Evee-chan!" Nanoha chimed out as she eagerly hopped up from her stool pulling Cassy with her, and jumped in dragging the poor blonde in with her, splashing in. They surfaced and Nanoha waved to Evee. "Come on in, it feels great, this place defiantly heals."

Evee nodded with a smile on her face as she shamelessly dropped her towel to the floor, showing off her beautiful curvy body and large firm breasts with large brown nipples. Cassy was a little jealous, but also knows she has some years to grow yet, and doesn't poetically want boobs that big, if hers grow to half her size she'll be very, very, happy.

The brown skinned girl slid into the water with nowhere near as mush eagerness as Nanoha, and submerged herself up to her neck like the younger girls with a peaceful smile on her plump lips.

"So, where are you from?" Cassy couldn't help but ask, as her curiosity was driving her almost as mad as her hormones, as she's sitting on some under water rock, so close to Nanoha that they're touching a little, which made her mentally slap herself because of her very naughty thoughts. If Nanoha realises what effect she has she is well and truly evil, though Cassy knows her super powerful best friend is clueless.

Evee smiled wider. "I'm from here, but if you're wondering about my origin of blood then my great grandparents came from a place on the continent of Africa called Egypt. Not all of our blood has been here since the time when our god Poseidon left with the storm protecting the people. Some of us are here by accident like you, but it is lovely here My Mistresses, and if being trapped from the outside world means staying here, then I am happy."

"Haven't you ever wanted to leave?" asked Nanoha in surprise. "Haven't you ever wanted to see all of the cool things in the rest of the world?"

"That would be nice," she whispered in agreement. "But I am trapped, just like you."

"You don't think we're gods?" asked Cassy in surprise.

"You have not once claimed to be," she replied. "You do not act as I would have thought Poseidon's daughters would. Are you gods My Masters?" she asked in all seriousness.

"No!" they both reply together. They expected Evee to be angry or something but she wasn't, but she did look curious.

"But you still have the power to harm us all if you wished too," she replied with a bow of her head.

"But we don't want to hurt you," Nanoha answered worriedly. "We just got trapped here while searching for the other Celestial items, so we cannot afford to stay; we have to find our Mistress!"

Evee gasped with her eyes wide. "B-but if what you say is true then great evil is coming. There are legends of the God of Gods, Xzodia, and the Celestial Knights!" she then gasped more. "You are both Knights of the God of Gods, and I have been too casual, please My Masters forgive my rudeness!"

Evee was actually shaking now, afraid. She had not realised that these two far outstripped Poseidon's children in rank.

"Hay, don't worry," said Nanoha nervously. "We're just normal girls like you, but we have to help save the world," she said shocking Evee, and causing Cassy to be flushed and feel a little jealous as Nanoha hugged the older girl (naked) before pulling back with a huge grin. "But maybe you could show us this magic fork thing… um… Poseidon's Trident. It sounds like it could be awesome cool, and worth a look while we're here. Otherwise journeying around the world is pointless if we don't see the sights.

"Cassy teaches me about non-magical stuff, and I teach her about magical stuff, as she grew up with science and I grew up with magic. It will be fun learning about legends of gods and stuff, maybe we can point out who were probably Unlimited and who were jerks faking it."

Evee's dark cheeks blushed but her dark eyes shined with happiness as she nodded her head in agreement.

"It-it will be my great honour to serve you both in any way I can," she agreed in delight as her long black hair covered her face a little, using it to hide how pleased she really is. "As soon as you have finished your baths My Lady's we shall dress and I will arrange for you to see the treasure."

Harry Potter opened his eyes and was totally confused lying in bed on top of his covers. He looked to his left, and could see both May and April in their beds sleeping soundly. Harry had been given a privet room when it was discovered that the two young girls didn't want to leave his side. They seemed to sleep very well when Harry read them a bed time story and slept in the same room.

Was that a dream...?

It felt so real...?

That island was beautiful...

I bet May and April would love to live there...

Heck, I would love to live there... I've never had a real home before, and there, those loyal to me shall fund a peaceful place to grow strong.

I know it has to be real...

It felt like all my combat dreams, except obviously shorter, and - Different somehow...

What do I do? Just tell them all? 'We're going to a castle on an island in the middle of nowhere. Oh, just so you can be trained to help fight another planet full of demons.'

Well… maybe I can leave out mention of another planet full of monsters during the initiation stages. After all, I don't really know who to bring, with the exception of Ginny, Abby, May, April, and probably Tessa. I guess I'll have to let intuition drive me.

Harry rubbed his eyes and looked away from the sleeping girls towards the ceiling, he noticed his clothes, and he was wearing the same as in his dream.

"This is defiantly the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me," he sighed quietly. Though, that annoying voice inside his head that he hopes everyone has was snickering and telling him weirder things have happened and he couldn't help but secretly agree.

Ginny Weasley was just sitting at a desk in her dorm. Ginny's fellow forth years asleep in their beds. She was just completing her Defence against the Dark Arts homework for Professor Calister, when she looked over at Tessa who is also in her fourth year, before Abby and Amanda in the next two beds with a smile.

'They look really cute sleeping,' she thought to herself as she watched them for a moment. Amanda she noted to herself has also kissed Harry, and she mildly wondered whether he got so good practising on her.

Tessa is a little shy sometimes and Ginny couldn't be one hundred percent, but she's almost positive that the girl does like other girls. In fact, other than the crush she seems to have on Ginny, Tessa seems quite taken with Amanda, which in Ginny's books is great because they'll make a super cute couple, and they both deserve to be happy.

Last up is Abby. Harry had just brought her home after he rescued her from some sickos yesterday in Diagon Alley. Ginny hasn't gotten to know much about her yet, except a few things such as Harry is paying for her education because it had come to his attention she had been denied in the UK, and she's a pureblood.

Ginny had been horrified at the disgrace of the British Wizarding World for not letting lots of mage attend Hogwarts. She had no idea that the UK purebloods treat their own as bad as muggleborns because of status and wealth. She and her family could have been in a similar mess if it weren't for her family's long standing ancient and powerful (magical) ancestry.

Though she knows that Abby is crushing on Harry, Ginny doesn't mind too much as the girl had been saved by him, it's only natural. Though, she has also noted that the poor girl isn't very bright, though she has the potential to learn, she had been denied what by muggle law is not only her right, but compulsory: an education.

However, what is bugging her most is Harry kissing Tonks. It isn't like she minds too much, but she loves him, and feels that if he is going to make out with another girl (woman), then she wants to watch. The very thought is actually quite a turn on.

She mildly wondered about those feelings, and whether she's a pervert. However, she had spoken to Hermione about it last night. Her friend had been surprised, and stated with conviction that he doesn't usually do something 'wrong' without a reason.

Hermione also told her that naughty little fantasies like wanting to watch Harry kissing Tonks are normal. Though, she did comment that this kind of fantasy was probably uncommon compared to a variety of others she wouldn't mention. She had just said that Ginny shouldn't worry about being a little perverted as everyone is, a little at least.

Ginny stared down at her homework, sighed then raised her eyes to look out of the window. She thought she was seeing things for a moment, but it drew closer, and Ginny was quick to open the window to let the brown barn owl in.

It landed on the desk and allowed her to take a package from its leg, which she did with the owl flying straight out of the window and out of sight within moments.

The owl had delivered a small box wrapped in brown paper, which confused her. She carefully unwrapped the package to find a black velvet case with a note that read. 'Ginny - Love Harry.'

She eyed it suspiciously. She knows Harry's handwriting, and even if it was ordered from a shop with note included he would have put more. In addition, it is most likely going to be Hedwig, or if Fawkes has been bothering said snowy owl Harry would force him to deliver gifts.

Ginny knew she shouldn't open it, and knew upon holding it that it was enchanted with a compulsion. However, she could tell. Her brain told her not to open it, to take it to a teacher, to Harry, but she had no choice, her body wouldn't listen to reason.

She slowly and carefully opened the box to find a thin black bracelet. It shined and sparkled like a precious gem. It had a golden Dragon engraved on it, and it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen.

However, it scared her. It terrified her, and she doubted that even Voldemort would be able to scare her like this. She found she couldn't talk, there were tears in her eyes, and she trembled with effort to stop, but to no avail as the black bracelet started glowing dark purple, she tried to drop it but she couldn't.

The bracelet floated out of its case. The purple light making its way towards Ginny's right arm, and it hits her wrist. The purple light becomes so bright for all of a moment, and then it's gone, no light, just the black bracelet on her wrist.

Suddenly a fierce pain of hate, greed, power, want, and self-loathing overpowered her senses, she stood up knocking her chair over with a loud clunk, Tessa woke up with one of the other girls and they both stared at Ginny in fright.

Ginny's eyes were blood red her hair blacker than black, but that wasn't what truly scared then. It was the look it was completely empty with a-couldn't careless smirk with not light in her crimson eyes. The next thing any of the girls new they were all screaming in pain, Ginny included.

"Wow!" Nanoha cried out as Evee had taken her and Cassy into a huge temple shrine where a green 'plastic/metal' and silver bladed trident stood proudly in the centre with a light green glow.

Evee was wearing a blue silky outfit which is quite see through but warm, with a bikini (Cassy's words) underneath in pink to keep her modest. Cassy's was pink but not see through, but tighter than Evee's accentuating her lack of assets while Evee's hid hers more while not completely. Nanoha's clothes are much like Cassy's but in a light green material, and neither girl had on any footwear.

The temple has a huge hole in the roof where they can see up perfectly through the storm to see it domes over the island.

Evee was just explaining the legend to the two as Cassy and Evee looked up, Evee always founding it aweing. Though Cassy tried to understand when the older giorl was saying, she was certain Nanoha had probably zoned out already when they gasped.

The storm that had been above them before (that somehow didn't obscure the sun) had just fizzled out in a few moments into nothing. Then they looked down to see loads of odd marking flashed to life in different colours drawing back from the walls to where the Trident had been.

They startled as it wasn't there anymore and looked around with chins almost on the floor as Nanoha had it in her hand spinning it around and playing like it was her power-pole.

"Ahh!" cried out Evee with wide eyes fully of shock. "Master, what have you done? How could you have done this, you stopped the storm."

Nanoha looked at them in confusion. "Huh? What's the matter? I haven't broken it. I just wanted to see if I can make waves and stuff, or water shoot out like you were saying Poseidon did, but it doesn't work for me."

"B-but, Nanoha," Cassy moaned pointing through the roof where the sun shined even brighter than ever. "I think that thing was creating the storm. There where all of these glowing seals on the floor when you pulled it out."

"Oh, sorry," she replied sheepishly as she popped the Trident back in place. The seals lit up again for a second before they watched as the storm once again blast around the island.

"Wow," Evee whispered as she walked forward and without a thought pulled the Trident out, startled as the storm stopped again. "T, that's pretty neat."

"Halt!"

They turned to see the wrinkly old elder with over thirty spear wielding men. He looked furiously at Evee, his eyes frosty cold with his anger.

"We have accommodated you strangers for long enough!" he spat out. "I am not foolish; I know you are not gods. Somehow you tricked some of my people into believing you are, so I let you be as I figured that since you asked for nothing it was harmless. However, now you try to corrupt, my sons soon to be wife four, and get her to touch what is not hers."

"Wife four?" Cassy asked in horror as Evee looked uncomfortable; obviously she doesn't like the idea.

"Yes, it is my son's right to choose up to five women he wants, and she is one. When she turns seventeen she will consummate it with her virginity in front of the whole village…"

"I won't let you!" Cassy suddenly hissed as her Bo appeared in her left hand, she growled. The men started but didn't move back, they advanced a little. If only she didn't need two hands she could at least fire at one or two, giving Nanoha a chance to beat the rest up.

"Your tricks do not fool us!" the chief said heatedly.

"What's consummate or virginity mean?" Nanoha suddenly asked, confused.

Cassy blushed as she leant over and whispered in her friend's ear before turning her full attention back to the Chief and his men. She did take pleasure though that Nanoha's cheeks exploded in flames as she let her simple mind work out how horrible these people really are. They're no better than the rest of humanity.

"You don't deserve to be protected by that storm!" Cassy reprimanded when her Bo flashed bright for a second before leaving her with a huge (oversized) white and black handgun in her left hand (as she is left handed) with the same rune markings her Bo had before with three slashes on the black muzzle on each side, and she stared in awe as she pointed it at her new enemy.

Nanoha was surprised by the change, but soon was wearing her claw on her right hand, and pulled out her power-pole with her left hand. She now knew that these supposed good people weren't so nice.

"J-just put the Trident back and we'll let you go," the Chief said with a worried frown. He was starting to doubt his disbelief in their god ancestry.

Evee went to obey, but Nanoha stopped her. "Don't… they can't get away with treating people badly. We'll save you, so don't you worry!"

Harry sat up on his bed with a start he could hear several girls screaming. He looked over at May and April, both of whom had been woken. He was still wearing the robes he had gotten in his dream; and he got up and looked at the two girls.

"You two stay here okay?" he told them, and they both nodded. "Don't leave, and I'll be back soon, go back to sleep."

He left and headed towards the screams. It was coming from one of the girls dorms, he saw a few boys standing outside, looking to scared to enter. Harry could still hear screaming as he approached the door, all of the boys around the door looked as though trying to say something, all he caught was.

"You can't go in there, it won't let you!" one of the boys said, which was a very weird thing to say.

However, when Harry just walked through he felt a weird vibration through his body for a second as he walked through. He heard the boys gasping in surprise about something, and then one sounded like he was in pain. Harry looked back to see why, but from what he could tell one of the boys just fell over. Though the rest he could see with odd looks on their faces, staring between the boy on the floor and Harry.

The screaming from the girls had stopped as he continued on. He started worrying as he realised third and fourth year common room and almost had some kind of seizure, as there were girls all over the common room floor, and furniture, all looking calk white in their night clothes.

Though a couple Harry noted guiltily enjoying the show weren't wearing any tops. He couldn't help but look, being a normal teenage lad, some of them were still awake barely keeping themselves conscious, but most were out cold.

He could sense that everyone was at least alive when he noticed Amanda lying with drowsily eyes just outside a room door. He quickly approached her, and knelt down next to her bringing her into his arms. She didn't look or feel as week as everyone else, and she at least recognised him as he held her, her eyes lighting slightly.

"What happened?" he asked in a gentle whisper.

"Ginny, some, something happened to her," she breathed out, her chest heaving with the strain.

"But what happened to her?" he replied with a worried frown. "She wouldn't do anything bad to you!"

"Wouldn't I, Lover boy?" asked a cold, but very familiar voice behind him.

He quickly turned around to find a black haired red eyed Ginny in front of him still wearing her every day robes. He lowered Amanda back to the floor and stood up, before his girlfriend.

"So what's the deal with all the…?" he stopped after noticing the bracelet on her wrist. "Nice bracelet… where'd you get it?"

"I don't know who sent it?" she replied cheerfully though there was no real humour there. "It's very pretty… It scares me Harry, and I can't get it off" she said like she weren't too bothered, and tugging at it to prove her point. Harry almost forgot himself and laughed at how cute she looked trying but failing to remove the bracelet.

Harry settled for a bemused smiled. "It's called the forced Darkness of the Dragons Storm. I wasn't aware that there was any remaining. They were supposed to all have been destroyed," he told her with a small smile.

"It looks like not all of them," Ginny chimed amusedly as she gestured hers. "So Harry, when do I get to see your dark, naughty side? I so want to suck you off like that. It sounds so invigorating… and naughty!" she giggled with a crazy little smile. "We can do it right here in front of all these dirty girls. I've already sucked them dry of their strength… let me have your darkness 'My Lord'!" she said the last two words in all seriousness, and mockingly.

Harry smiled a little as his eyes roamed the girls, some still hanging on to the waken world like Amanda, but others are out cold. The thought was a little tempting… well for his naughty teenage hormones at least, but he can't let her dark side win over so easily.

"What do you mean?" he asked as he looked into her eyes, even red they held that spark of, well… that spark of wow.

She grinned cheekily at him. "You are the Dragon Phoenix Harry," she giggles as she let her small pink tongue lick her plump red lips suggestively. "The bracelet told me. So, show me the darkness that even the Storm is weary of. The darkness that Albus Dumbledore so foolishly saw as evil, which brought his recent downfall, and then perhaps you and I can do as bunnies do, all night long!" she demanded with a cute and cheeky grin.

Harry had to think. If the bracelets supposed to force out a person's dark, and evil traits then Ginny's are totally adorable. He could get used to this quirky side of her, and had to fight the instinct to just tear off her clothes and take her here and now. Though thinking of it, he's sure she doesn't really want their first time going all the way to be in front of her dorm-mates.

"Do you think you have enough power to absorb my darkness as well as make love?" Harry asked grinning.

"M, make love?" she asked as her eyes and expression cleared for a moment as his eyes slanted ruby red with the whites pitch black. His hair grew out and up, wild, untamed, and darker than black.

He walked over to her and folded his arms around her waist, and she put hers around him, holding on tight, lovingly feeling his warm strong body up against hers. Then they were gone in a flash of red wind.

They reappeared in the entrance hall, Harry's black and red aura visible floating around him slowly being absorbed by Ginny, both of them still holding each other tight breathing rapidly.

Ginny's breathing picked up as she felt the drug, the pull of his power. It was so tremendous; she had known Harry was strong, but never imagined. The orgasms she received from the other girls strength was nothing like this. This was an explosion of hell-fire. The feeling she got when she watched Harry fight. That dampness in her underwear that told her to hold on to him, as no one can ever make her feel so good. Her hero… and her villain.

Strong winds erupt up around them ripping the chamber to pieces. Ginny gasps in pain as her left cheek tears, but the feeling that bubbles within her stomach was ecstatic.

She orgasm's on just his power, so big that she had lost her breath, and had trouble breathing as another hit her like a ton of bricks causing her to gasp in a torrent of air, her check resting on her loves chest as she holds on tight.

Harry felt blood trickling down his forehead as he held Ginny tight and let her enjoy the feeling absorbing his dark energies gave her, (it felt quite good for him too but he has control compared to her want, lust, need), and he realised that his lightning scar must have reopened, bleeding. Then a tear across the side of his face makes him wince slightly at the unexpectedness of it.

Both of them were being torn, and cut by the force of their now combined power. Their blood leaking into each other, they were both yelling in pain, even though both could feel the pleasure deep within of such an act.

Harry looked down at her crying, screaming face; though her eyes are full of tears they held those signs of enjoyment. Gritting his teeth not to scream out, he saw their blood was glowing dark purple.

He needed to stop this or both he and Ginny would become a greater threat than Voldemort could have ever hoped to be, maybe an even greater threat than the Storm of Nightmares.

"I Love You!" Harry yelled through the noise of destruction they had caused.

She stopped screaming as though her pain was forgotten she looked into his sad red eyes and replied.

"I Love You Too!"

All of a sudden everything stopped and instead of her feeding of his black aura she was feeding of his white and yellow aura. Their blood glowed bright white, and Harry could sense that people were watching now, well they were glowing so bright that no one could see in.

He could see that all the tables and chairs that were smashed up and spinning around in the winds of their magic had stopped like time had no meaning, and there was no sound like someone had muted the world. He looked down at Ginny through his golden yellow eyes, his hair thick, wild, golden white down to his waist, and glowing slightly.

He looked into her big beautiful bubbly golden yellow eyes, and ran his fingers through her thick golden blonde hair as it ran down passed her butt.

He leaned in closer to her, his lips gently brushing hers, butterflies running amok in his stomach. His tongue slowly entered her mouth, and they kissed with all the love and passion they could manage in their tired state.

He even allowed his hands to wonder down, under her hair to her bum and he squeezed it tight, pulling her tighter, closer to himself, after all the teasing she's been party too.

They heard a cracking sound, both Harry and Ginny pulled apart, looked down to the bracelet, still holding each other tight. The bracelet smashed into pieces like broken glass, black smog of its power lingers for a moment as it faded away.

Harry felt his strength slowly returning as Ginny stopped absorbing his power, she had tears in her eyes as she fell into his arms like a ragdoll, out cold with just two breathless words lingering in the air.

"I'm sorry!"

Harry held her tight as his aura faded away from sight. He looked around to see who had been watching. He sighed at all their fearful and concerned faces and shook his golden mane as it framed him like a lion, wild, but gentle, and majestic.

Harry lifted Ginny up and stood with her cradled in his arms, just watching the cute blonde Ginny sleep. He had to admit she looked weird with blonde hair and he much preferred her red hair, but as long as she's okay, he'll be happy if her hair was green, which might look kind of cute. Then in a swish of blue wind they were both gone before anyone can ask any questions.

He arrived back in his quarters near his bed. He saw that May and April had fallen back to sleep, and Harry flicked some magic to pull the covers off his bed, and then he laid Ginny down.

He removed her shoes and her robes, but left her shirt and skirt on as he didn't want to disturb her. He then his removed his robes, only mildly curious how he could possibly have clothes from his dream, but figured magic can do stuff like that.

He then climbed into bed with Ginny, pulled her into his arms where she snuggled content, her legs twisting with his. The covers then pulled themselves up to their necks before he raised his free left hand and the whole room flashed yellow, secure from intrusion.

He sighed as he kissed her forehead, before his eyes slowly drift closed and he just lay, enjoying his loves soft, warm body laying half on top of him. It felt nice, and comforting, and soon, he joined her in sleep. Though, he had no dreams as his body and power recovers from the attack on Ginny, but he silently promises that the guilty party shall be held accountable, and punished.

Cassy fired her new gun of light, and with a flash of white a blast of magic struck one of the spear men knocking him back into the wall where he fell unconscious. She was surprised as when it was a Bo it had vaporized a man into oblivion. Though, maybe she needs to do something different with the Gun of Light. She also had to wonder why it changed; maybe they all can, to evolve with the world or something. She didn't know and by Nanoha's expression knew she didn't either.

At least the other men were now looking scared and it seems that the chief is starting to doubt himself. However, after a few moments his eyes seemed to harden, and he looked determined.

"Kill them!" he demanded and his men ran straight in.

"POWER-POLE EXTEND!" Nanoha called out and her red pole did, smacking out several me.

Cassy glared as she raised her gun and pulled the trigger. This time she held it, and the flashing white by the muzzle got brighter and more impressive, before she heard words whispered into her mind without a voice.

"Cry to the heavens!" she called out, starting when a circle of light appeared around her muzzle with a seven star pentagram with odd marking that looked like they could be words in between two rings. "Precision Lights!" as she cried these last two words three dots of light formed a triangle in front of the circle of light.

Each dot of light shot a laser like beam, which connected in the centre, and Cassy let the trigger go. It happened fast as seven strands of light shot forward, each one curving to cut through a man, and dropping him no matter whether the angle is right or not, seven men went down. She didn't know how she knew how to do that attack, but she did, and it awed her as the circle faded and the barrel sizzled with magical steam.

Nanoha stopped after her 'claw beam strike' had taken down five more men, her claw-nails fading from red light back to normal. Her eyes as wide as Evee's as the dark skinned girl had watched in awe of both of them holding the Trident tightly, unsure what she should do.

Evee had never known that she would ever see such people using such powers, and what Cassandra just did was… well frightening and very exciting. It's the kind of feeling she gets when the men play sports and compete.

Her eyes widened as the last two of the men suddenly charged at Cassy in shock but the girl looked tired and they were nearly on her before she realised.

Evee didn't even think as she cried out 'no' as they went to attack, the trident pointed towards them, a huge ball of water pulsed out of the centre tip and blast the two men crashing into a wall.

"No, no!" the chief cried out as he backed up in fright, all his best men were down and out. "T, this can't be!"

Evee looked from him to the younger girls and suddenly dropped to her knees as she looked up. Her once dark (black) eyes now swimming with blues and greens so deep they were drowning as she presented her trident it shrank down to a more manageable size.

Evee looked at the weapon in awe as she just placed it on her back, water snaked up it, hardening into a sheaf.

She looked at the younger girls pleadingly. "Please My Masters, My Mistresses. I implore you to let me come as your most humble servant. I, I can surely use Poseidon's Trident to help you, to serve as best I can. I want to see the world outside of the inner walls of this island please!"

Cassy was about to say something but Nanoha interrupted. "I know I'm not the smartest Cassy-chan, but I know if we refuse her one of her requests we will hurt her pride, and pride is something that everybody needs a little of."

The blonde nodded with a smile. "In that case… Nano and I will be happy to have you serving us if that's what you want?" she answered the girl remembering the things Nanoha had said about things like this, and that she comes from an isolated place too. Though not like this.

The now blue/green eyed dark skinned girl nodded eagerly as she pulled herself to her feet. "Yes Master, very much so… I will do my best to serve only two of the Celestial Knights, Lady Cassandra, and Lady Nanoha!"

They were interrupted by a gasp, and looked over to see the chief near faint. He had not picked on gods, but two of the God of Gods knights. He could do nothing to stop Evee from leaving now as she has been accepted to serve the two Knights, and also the Trident had chosen to give her its power. Though it's not on the Celestial level of the God of Gods the three of them together could level the whole island.

"Well, I guess since the storms over we can all leave," Nanoha said cheerfully.

"Where would you both like for me to take you My Masters?" Evee suddenly asked them. They both looked at her questioning. "I do not believe it will be one hundred percent accurate and only to some place near the ocean, but the Trident says I should be able to use the runes power just once to get the three of us off this island."

"Hang on!" Nanoha said as she checked Rei-chan still hanging around her neck. "Oh, where are these places Cassy-chan?" Cassy was just looking when they heard a thump and looked over to see the chief had fallen out of the doorway and passed out outside. They just shrugged as Cassy looked the places over.

"Hmm, well it looks like that one in the UK is gone," Cassy said with a frown. "But, one is in Massachusetts in the US, another is in California, and… wait a minute you said there is seven… well look here, there's only four bleeps. That means three aren't on here."

"B-but where could they be?" asked Nanoha worriedly.

"I don't know," Cassy replied. "But I say we go to the California one first since I've always wanted to go there… then the one in Massachusetts. After that we'll worry about the missing items. It could be those evil magical army guys. If it is they'll come after us and we can rob them back."

"Yeah!" Nanoha cheered pumping her fist in the air happily. "Take us to California Evee-chan!" she declared as she showed the spot on the map.

Evee nodded, and took a deep breath as she pulled her Trident back and it extended to its full size. She stabbed the ground and the runes lit up in a brilliant flash of light, and when it cleared the three of them were gone. Evee just said a silent farewell to her home and her mother, hopping her mother understands her choice.

However, her mother had followed the chief and saw everything that had gone on with a proud smile. She took a deep breath before taking the path back to the village to tell them the news that two of the Knights of the God of Gods, Xzodia had accepted her daughter as their servant and how proud she is.

To Be Continued…

A/N: whoa… this took ages to complete, a whole day in fact. Darn you procrastination!

I hope you enjoyed.
