The Calm before the Storm
Episode XXV
Old School!
Ginny Weasley was totally confused. The last thing she remembered was snuggling up in bed with Harry after a few 'not quite all the way' fun activities they shared together in the lounge of his apartment as it only had one bedroom and the girls were in there.
Then she was in a beautiful cherry blossom forest, with millions of beautiful pink and white leaves scattered all over the ground. The sky shone brightly and blue with a few wisps of fluffy white cloud.
The trees thick with leaves of different shades of pinks and reds, and it were defiantly the most beautiful place she had ever seen. There was a gentle breeze that felt cool and somehow comforting as it drifted across her skin.
She looked herself over to see she was now wearing a soft white dress that breezed about in the cool and refreshing breeze.
"Hey," a familiar voice said from behind her. She spun around startled to see Harry wearing creamy coloured cargo shorts hanging just above his knees, and a white tee that showed off his muscular body.
"It's nice to see that your natural hair colours back," he said in amusement as she let her hair fall into her vision to see her vibrant red hair has indeed returned.
"Harry…!" she called out moments later throwing herself into his arms, with her arms gently around his neck, he held her lovingly to his chest. "W-where are we?" she asked pulling back to look up at him.
"Don't know... It's nice though," he answered smilingly as he took in the scenery with a relaxed air shining in his emerald eyes.
Ginny just stared at him with a frown marring her pretty face. "We should find a way out of here and back to Salem quickly, it could be dangerous," she was quick to say in worry.
Harry chuckled while rolling his eyes, stroking Ginny's silky smooth hair and planting a small kiss of affection on her lips. "We are in Salem silly, don't be afraid, trust me. It's kind of cool here."
"What? But... t-this isn't Salem… what do you mean it's cool here? Where are we, this can't be Salem, I've been at the school for over a week, and I haven't noticed any Sakura trees anywhere, do they even grow here?" she responded in confusion.
"It had taken a while for the connection to complete, but it has. This is a dream Ginny," he told her as his lips touched with hers for a moment causing her a faint blush and a tiny smile.
"B... But how can this be a dream?" she asked looking very confused. He smiled as her confused expression is just too cute for words. "It seems so real," she added in wonder as she looked around and smelt the beautiful fragrant air.
"Yes it does, and I must say I thought Harry's mind created beautiful places, but… I think he has competition now."
It was an unknown man's voice that startled her as two men were now stood behind them, one in golden armour with glowing golden white hair like hers was, and golden yellow eyes. The other in black with long but short cherry black wavy hair and Dragonish red eyes with black whites, and a dangerous but calm and safe presence about him.
Ginny held on tighter to Harry in worry, unsure about what to expect and more than a little scared, but in Harry's arms any fear seems lessened by his strength and mere presence.
"It's okay Gin," he spoke comfortingly to her with a reassuring smile. "These two are Dragon," he began an introduction gesturing to the man in black armour who smirked. "And this is Phoenix," he finished pointing out the man in gold; he grinned with a kind aura around him. "They're just here to train us!"
Harry then sat her down in his lap, the two Knights sitting down opposite as Harry started explaining about the dream world, a reality that exists within dreams.
He went on to explain what she hadn't learnt from the bracelet: The Storm, the greatest threat to the world there ever has been and there ever will be. He explained about the demonic world that exists out of sync with the Earth, but soon if the Storm gets its way, Terra will sync with this realm, and invade the Earth.
"Oh…" she said after several moments of stunned silence. "T-this is why you don't… why you don't care about Voldemort anymore. He-he's a small-fry compared to this. T-this is war… and… the-the Magical-world won't be able to hide from this.
"Witches and wizards, we'll all be forced to fight together with non-mage to protect the Earth. T-the world as we know it is coming to an end, but can we do this Harry, can we win?"
"We have too," he answered smiling at her as he held her tight in his arms. "If we don't then the Earth will die and Terra will attack Gaia… if we don't stop Terra here trillions of innocent people will die, and even more if you count all of the non-intelligent creatures of both Earth and Gaia!"
"W-what is Gaia," she asked quietly as horror was written across her face.
"Gaia, like Terra is another world out of faze with either Earth or Terra," he answered sadly. "From what these two say the planet is larger than Earth, but they say from what they know the technology of that world was going down a different path, and magic hadn't been seen by religions as 'evil' so it's still likely that on that world we can perform magic openly without people gawking or whatever."
"S-so these two will teach us powerful new spells and stuff…? You know, too-to fight the Storm and save the world and…" she trailed off to take a deep breath. "It seems too much for just the two of us… and before you were alone."
Harry chuckled shaking his head to her confusion and chagrin. "There are other heroes in this world and Gaia… powerful heroes that will fight by our sides. We just have to have faith that we can win… it may seem impossible, but together, we will lead the world into battle, and it will be win or die, no in-between Gin… no in-between."
Ginny grimaced as she finally realised that he was talking about Armageddon, not just for one world but two. And either way, the worlds will change, and that the two of them together will have to lead heroes into battle against the greatest evil in existence.
"This is fucked up Harry," she suddenly said startling him as she laughed. "I guess we have a lot of training to do, and heroes to find and train and stuff…" she said the last nervously causing him to chuckle a little.
"I won't disagree with that baby," he answered kissing her check. "And sorry I got you so involved with the whole giving you such a fucked up destiny and all."
"Harry!" she reprimanded kissing his lips sweetly. "I would have been fighting anyway. It's just now I have more of the means to fight, by your side equally."
Harry let a grin spread. "Thanks beautiful," he said laughingly. "Terra will be facing the Terror of Earth when it faces the both of us."
"Right," she agreed nodding and holding him tighter.
"This was most unexpected though," Dragon butted in before the lovey-dovey stuff gets too much to bear. "There's only ever been one Dragon Phoenix at any one time before."
"The Storm will have two to fight, which brings the odd in Earths favour," Phoenix said uncertainly.
"I hope your right," Harry replied with a tight lipped smile as they had to interrupt him.
"Shall we begin?" Phoenix asked quickly before the mood goes too far downhill.
"Not yet, I have a few questions if I may?" Harry replied with a thoughtful frown. Though, he didn't wait for them to ask what. "It's just that I think large numbers of non-mage born witches and wizards are missing out on magic and learning it because they might be sub-elements and go undetected."
Dragon snorted while rolling his eyes. "Undetected…?" he asked as if he doubted that very much. "In your predecessors time they could detect them. They may not perform accidental magic as much as straight elements. For one, nine times out of ten they will have magical siblings, and for two they will occasionally do something involving their element.
"In fact, I don't think I've heard of one not, such as a gravity element bending gravity to lighten a load or make something heavy when angry. That should have easily been detected."
Harry frowned in annoyance but kept his temper in check, and Ginny just looked mildly confused. "So… the ministries are somehow stopping the detectors from picking up on this. They could be stopping thousands… no potentially tens of thousands of sub-elements from learning magic, and because they have trouble performing accidental magic they can get away with it."
"Harry that's horrible," Ginny suddenly spoke. "T-they couldn't actually get away with that could they?"
"I-I think they are getting away with it," he answered to her horror. "Though, I bet it's only a select few get chosen to have this knowledge… otherwise people like Shanna would put a stop to it, and people worldwide would find out."
"T-then there's lots of non-magic born people who…" Ginny began feeling sick. "I mean… they were never given the opportunity to learn magic."
Harry nodded in agreement. "But just think… if all of those sub-element sorcerers had been accepted into our world, all of the pureblood traditions would have been thrown out long ago. They would have brought in technology, thrown out the whole backwater themes such as robes and plenty of other things."
Ginny just stared at him with her jaw hanging open as she realised the truth. "T-the magical world… its only still ran by things like the wizengamot because they've… they've been so selfish."
"Yeah," he agreed while just turning back to the knights. "So, just out of curiosity, what else do you know about non-mage born mage?" he asked them in curiosity.
They just shrugged while Phoenix spoke. "Nothing much to say apart from the whole oddity about the large majority speaking parseltongue," he said shrugging but Harry and Ginny just stared with wide eyes. "I think it was some kind of weird thing in the muggles… err, non-mage's blood. It can be passed down through the generations though."
"Wait, you didn't know about that?" Dragon interrupted, and they both shook their heads. "B-but last time… they were high in numbers, at least ninety present of the non-mage born population."
Harry had paled significantly. "T-that means… w-with the sub-elements… there could be… could be hundreds of thousands of untrained mage being denied what should be their right!"
"W-whoa," Phoenix muttered in awe. "I would hate to have to sort that out."
"S-sort that out…!" Harry almost cried out at him. "If this is all true then… then… every ministry of magic on the planet must have whole departments… super-secret departments designed to keep this secret and to stop them from entering Hogwarts or any other magical school for that matter made up of purists!"
"Well, that does seem bothersome," Dragon agreed with a frown. "You are going to try sorting it out aren't you?"
Harry smirked darkly. "Of course I am. I'm the hero, I fight purists for a hobby while not fighting for the world," he said in amusement. "However, it's that whole parseltongue thing that gets me chuckling the more I think about it. All of those purist dark witch's and wizards will be surprised when news gets out."
"Oh, I guess they think it's rare and pureblood, and they're proud of that?" Dragon said laughingly. "I love your scheming mind Harry."
"It seems that some long dead bastards have jealously fucked over generations of people," Harry said. "It's lucky they're dead, but no-worries their descendants and whoever else is hiding the truth from the world will die painfully in their stead for high treason against the Earth!"
"C-can you do that?" Ginny asked in wonder.
"Who's going to stop me?" he asked smirking in amusement.
Ginny smiled a little at that and shrugged. "Not me… or anyone else with a brain or heart," she said snuggling into his embrace tightly.
"Hey, none of that," Dragon growled out startling them. "We're here to train you not watch you sit around… 'cuddling'!" he reprimanded, which made them jump up to their feet, and the training began.
Harry opens his eyes to see Ginny open hers snuggled up with him in bed, looking at him with her pretty chocolate brown eyes, he ran his fingers through her beautiful silky soft dark red hair, pleased to see her back to her normal self.
'You coming with us today Gin?' he asked in thought not wanting to disturb May and Aprils' sleep as they snooze in their beds.
'You mean to get Amanda her wand?' she thought back with a small smile.
'Yep,' he agreed laughingly. 'Hermione said she'll watch the girls.'
'Okay... but will she want me to come. I did kind of attack her,' Ginny thought back sadly. "I know she says she forgives me… and I wasn't exactly in complete control but still…"
'Don't talk… err, think silly things girl. She's your friend, of course she wants you to come out with us,' he thought back rolling his eye, which caused her to smile at him.
'I guess," she replied uncertainly. 'So… umm… what are you going to do about the whole… you know… mug… I mean not-magical born thing?'
'Natamagus,' he suddenly supplied confusing her. 'It means arisen magic or arisen magician in Latin. It's less of a mouthful,' he added chuckling a little out loud.
'And not magic is?' she asked in curiosity.
He shrugged sheepishly. 'Nemagus, not magic, or not magician… or neonatus meaning new-born, pretty cool huh…?'
'Then what are we?' she asked in amusement.
He just offered up a smirk rolling his eyes. 'Magus, silly,' he thought laughingly causing her to stifle a giggle.
'Well, what are you going to do about the natamagus thing?' she asked him in curiosity.
He frowned in thought for a moment. 'I guess I have half the morning as we're not going out with Ami and the others till a few hours before lunch, so… I'll go speak with Shanna. Hopefully I'll be able to convince her of the truth. You can take care of the girls while I'm gone right?'
'Of course, Harry,' she agreed as if that was a given fact.
Harry was wearing his black suit as he appeared in a nicely furnished office in a swish of white wind to find several wands nearly in his face as he smiled at the Minister as she sat behind her desk, obviously talking to the three men and one woman sitting comfortably around her desk.
The wand bearers are all male of varying nationalities and sizes, and all held that… official air about them, as they all had on uniforms. One uniform held the Japanese Ministries logo, (the woman is oriental he noticed), another Canadian, the next the Spanish logo, and finally surprisingly Russian.
"Whoa… my bad," he said chuckling in amusement. "Umm… wow, this is kind of embarrassing…" he said before shrugging. "Well, whatever… Shanna, I came to… hey," he said turning to the officials. "Are you guys Ministers?" he asked them curiously.
"Yes," the Russian guy spoke up first eyeing Harry with interest. "You have over a dozen wands on you from top trained bodyguards, why is it that you are not showing signs of fear."
"Oh, look down," he said in amusement and they all looked to see the Russian Minister had a gun pointed at his crotch while the Canadian has one pointed at him. "Sad thing is… they're not top enough, huh Minister?" he asked with a laughing grin.
"Y-yes, I see," he replied as he gestured for his guards to back down but Harry had already spun his guns into their holsters.
"Hey, I'm not here for a fight or anything," he said rolling his eyes before they stayed trained on the remaining guards as they hadn't lowered their wands. They reluctantly backed off at the Ministers nods. "This will be so much easier to spread the word if I tell you all."
"Tell us what Harry," Shanna asked in wonder as Harry doesn't normally just pop by. "Oh, umm… this is Harry Potter," she introduced him, which surprisingly (or not so if you've read the Daily Prophet) set the guards further on edge.
"It is a pleasure," the Canadian Minister was pleased to shake his hand followed by the other two men, but Harry gave the woman a bow and spoke fluent Japanese to her. "Good morning Minister-sama," he said surprising her.
She replied too in Japanese. "It is an honour. I hear you have been teaching Fudge-baka some manners."
"Trying to," he said shrugging in English. "But as you say… he's an idiot."
"What is it you have to say then?" the Russian Minister asked curiously.
"Lose the douches," he answered before turning to them. "You can leave now. I'm all the protection they'll need while in this building."
"We will not…!" one of the Russian guards spoke up, his pride hit. However, his Minister stood and glared at him.
"You will leave now, I feel this is important," he spoke without leaving any hole for debate. His men left quickly and with brief nods from their Ministers the others were out next.
"Okay then," Harry began before shrugging. "You want me to piss ass around for half an hour or just out right tell you the shit is about to fuck the fan."
"Err, poor wording but I say just go for it," the Spanish Minister spoke shrugging as the others nodded in agreement.
Harry just shrugged with an amused grin. "It's came to my attention that an organised people of the… purist persuasion have been preventing natamagus from learning magic."
"Natamagus…?" Minister Shanna asked looking just as confused as the others.
"Oh, right," he said laughing. "Latin, means arisen magician, new word for someone magic born from… nemagus, which means not magician," he answered them smilingly, and looked more amused as they realised what he is saying.
"That's nonsense," The Canadian said. "How exactly could they do that?"
"Well a good ten percent or so are sub-elements," he answered shrugging. "So they don't really preform accidental magic, so the main sensor has probably been adjusted to not pick up elemental magic. However, the other ninety present… well I'm pretty sure there are hidden departments hiding them and reversing any magic preformed."
"Now see here young man," the Russian said looking appalled. "There is no department in my ministry that I am not aware…"
"Then you'll all be fine with me… not breaking the natamagus sensors modifications?" he asked in amusement as he just stood up and strolled out of the room. He was not surprised that all five followed him all the way into the natamagus detection department… or muggleborn department as they call it.
The detectors around them watched in confusion as the Minister had never seen reason to visit their department before, and never with foreign visitors, and Harry Potter too?
Harry brought them to a stop before the large map of the US with loads of little blue lights on it all over the country.
"Minister Morgan, if I could borrow your wand," he said with his hand out. "I leant mine to a very good friend of mine."
"What are you doing," a very gruff pile of a man stepped in his way, eyeing him and the map, a small glimmer of fear and knowing. "You're not touching this map with your filthy magic…"
The man trailed off as Harry wasn't smiling anymore but grabbed him by the throat and started chocking him. "Don't fucking talk to me like that you filthy piece of shit, I could kill you as easy as breathing. My magic is far superior to yours you inbred piece of magically weak bitch…!"
Harry then tore the man's wand from his hand before throwing him across the room where he crashed down crying and whimpering. Minister Morgan was quick to gesture to an auror and he took the man into custody. She has never tolerated racism, and she was thankful Harry didn't end him so he can be questioned if this conspiracy turns out to be fact.
Harry raised the wand at the map. "Let's see… reveal the elements!" he commanded and in a blink of an eye the blue dots on the map must have tripled causing the Ministers eyes to widen in shock. "Now… reveal… the serpents tongue!"
The Ministers gasped at that but Harry was also staggered as this time the lights must have increased by ten.
"What the," the Russian Minister muttered as he moved forward. "A-and these are only those under seventeen's!"
"Shit," Shanna spoke quietly in horror. "W-what the hell can I do to right this."
Harry shrugged. "Probably get to all these you can, and start inviting them to school, and scholarship them all as compensation, let the older students stay on longer, but teach them you must. Looking at this I bet those jerks hiding them have been having trouble through recent years."
"You said serpent speakers," the Canadian Minister spoke shakily. "Do you mean most of them can speak parseltongue?"
"Yeah," he answered smirking as he threw his stolen wand to the side. "Not evil, not pureblood, but just an oddity that comes from their nemagus parents…" he trailed off and laughed. "Irony has come back to bite them in the ass with venomous fangs."
"Indeed, it has," the Spanish Minister growled out. "I had to work harder than any other Minister to get where I am because I was not born from magic, and I find this a disgrace. My Ministry will pay!"
"That's what I like to hear," Harry commented before shrugging. "Well, if you guys will all excuse me, I have better things to do with my time than deal with politics," he laughed as he disappeared.
It was only about half an hour later, Harry, Ginny, Tessa, Abby, and Amanda were walking down to Salem village, where they would be getting Amanda her wand at a wand makers called 'Davens' that has been making wands for near two hundred years.
Harry and Ginny still hadn't mentioned the fact that parseltongue is actually comes from some non-mage's blood. Harry had resolved to talk privately with Dumbledore about it when he returns to the school. Dumbledore maybe a git, but he is also a very smart man who could possibly be of some use.
He wasn't sure he wanted to tell his friends about all of the neonates magus that are going unlawfully checked and kept from her right to learn magic. It's sad that these 'pure' magi have been so jealous and petty.
It didn't take long to reach the wand shop, and enter through the front door. Harry almost laughed. The shop looked almost exactly the same as Olivander's back in Diagon Ally in London, only cleaner… well clean.
There was a middle-aged man looking bored filing papers in the cabinets behind his counter, and he hadn't noticed them enter, well they thought he hadn't anyway.
The man turned around to face them when they reached the counter. He had a round kind face with brown eyes and hair. He took one look at Harry and his eyes did the usual dash to his forehead and his scar, then away again to survey the other three with a beaming smile, then he looked back to Harry.
"Mr. Potter," he spoke in a deep American accent. "What do I owe this pleasure?" he asked with a slight bow of the head.
Harry smirked rolling his eyes before he replied. "My friend Amanda here," he gestures the girl. "Is in need of a wand," he spoke in amusement as he pulled her forward and she blushed.
The wand maker was quick to nod before heading out into the back room. He returned a few minutes later with an arm full of thin boxes, and pours them onto the counter.
He then opens one and pulls out a wand, and hands it quietly to Amanda, then almost instantly pulls it away muttering excitedly that it's not the right one for her.
If Harry was doing this it would have only taken him a few misses if that because he found the right wand for her.
Harry couldn't believe how much like Mr. Olivander this man is; as the time passed, he kept getting more and more excited until finally after an hour and twenty minutes it happens. Amanda's wand finally chooses her.
"Oak nine and three quarter inches, Dragon heart string, yes nice and firm brilliant for," the wand maker chuckled a bit with a sparkle in his brown eyes. "Curses, Jinxes and Hexes…" She tried not to smile too much at that, just thanked him, and paid for the wand.
Harry couldn't help but laugh as he picked up one of the wands without much care or thought and passed it to Abby. The others were all startled as it chose her straight out.
"I figured a more suited wand was needed," he said as way of explaining. "Ten inches, Corel Bear fir core, made from cherry wood," he said smiling at her as he took the box for it and paid the man."
"How'd you know all that?" Ginny couldn't help but ask.
Harry shrugged as he handed Abby the box. "Says so in the box, neatly written for everyone to read," he said shocking them, but the wand maker just laughed as he's the first to truly understand that he doesn't just know.
All four left the wand makers and headed back to school. Amanda and Abby were very pleased with their purchases. The wand maker had returned their wands to their thin boxes, but the moment they were outside, they took them out and threw the boxes in the bin.
"Hey girls," Harry said as they passed through the Salem school gates, heading back. "I've got to go speak to the old fool," he said referring to Dumbledore.
He told them he'll meet them in the dinning chamber for lunch then in a flash of white wind was gone. Glad that Amanda, Abby and Tessa were holding no grudges against his girlfriend like some of the more spiteful girls… well ok, only the pug and her bitches are.
Harry arrived in the infirmary in a swish of wind; no one even noticed him, though there were only four people there at the time, Mr. Weasley, Dumbledore, the matron and Sirius who was chatting to Mr. Weasley.
"Hey Sirius," Harry said approaching the two. "How are you this morning Mr. Weasley?" They both looked up at Harry smiling.
"I'm feeling much better thank you," Mr. Weasley replied.
"That's good to hear... well if you'll excuse me. I'm here to see him…"
Harry nodded at Dumbledore, and both men nodded. Harry made his way over to Dumbledore's bed, where the old man watched him apprehensively as he walked around to the other side of his bed and sat next to him on a wooden chair, surveying the old man for a few moments.
"What can I do for you Harry?" the old man breaks the silence as Harry cast a silencing charm to prevent eavesdroppers. He stayed silent for a moment more before he finally decided to speak.
"How do you know about The Calm, the Dragon Phoenix?" he finally asked. "I've looked in the Salem library there's not one quote about it in there."
"I have a book on Legends with a chapter on it in my study. It isn't very long or detailed, but it does speak of you, and the coming horror," Dumbledore replied as he hung his head. "I should have realised what you are," he said slowly. "All of the signs, the more I think about it the more I realise."
Harry nodded his agreement. "Bluh, whatever Old Man. You weren't to know I'm the first sign of the end of the world."
Dumbledore grimaced and shivered. "Well, I take it that was not actually what you came to ask me?"
"No... how many natamagus are accepted into Hogwarts?" Harry asked him looking curious. Dumbledore looked surprised by the word but didn't mention it as he knew what it meant.
"All... though, the occasional one or two unfortunately fall through the cracks," Dumbledore stated sadly. Harry watched the old man trying to find a lie but he seemed to be telling the truth.
"What if I said that's a lie?" Harry asked the old teacher who seemed to be very interested now. "What if I said that the British ministry is hiding the existence of maybe thousands?" he asked causing Dumbledore to pale. "Potentially the starting force for hundreds of thousands hidden from us around the world?"
Dumbledore's eyes bulged and he looked angry at the thought. Harry had not really seen Dumbledore angry before except when he saved Harry from the fake Alistor Moody, after he got back from the graveyard and Voldemort, on the night of the third task of the Triwizard Tournament.
He could sense Dumbledore strength fluxuating with his anger, and understood this is why Voldemort may fear or at least be weary of him.
"And how would you know that?" Dumbledore asked trying to calm down without much success.
Harry smirked at Dumbledore knowingly and it seemed to really bug the old man that Harry was taking his time. "If I tell you," Harry finally said. "You have to keep it to yourself for the time being... the US, Russian, Canadian, Japanese, and Spanish Ministers already know and are starting procedures to put a stop to the conspirators in their countries…. okay?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Very well," Dumbledore replied swallowing heavily, seemingly bracing himself for undesirable news.
"Parseltongue was never a pureblood trait… well not unless they had mixed blood, or were descended from nemagus," Harry says know longer smiling.
Dumbledore's face dropped, and all of the colour drained from him, he seemed almost the same colour as a ghost as he in part realised what Harry was saying, why they would hide natamagus.
"Salazar Slytherin," Harry continued as his humour returned full-fledged. "I have a feeling we all know why no-one's ever heard about his family… Salazar Slytherin himself was not only a neonatus magus, but he is the reason all of these people are being denied what someone offered him. If the bastard wasn't already dead I would kill him myself."
"What?" Dumbledore all most cried with disgust trying to get out of bed, but wincing in pain and falling back down.
"Stay still Mr. Weasley's not fully recovered yet," Harry calmly reprimanded shaking his head with impatience. Dumbledore reluctantly stayed still propped up on his pillows.
"But Harry," he complained. "We've allowed Slytherin house to have denied mu... neonatus magus when its founder was one... he lied to the other three founders... that's despicable, he has to go. Slytherin shall be expelled from Hogwarts!"
Harry sighed and tried not to smile too much at the prospect of removing Slytherin's memories from Hogwarts forever. Plus, the look on the purists' faces when their precious pretender is gone, but then, Slytherin's like pretending if Tom Riddle is any indicator.
"Yes most assuredly," he agreed smilingly. "But not right now or have you forgotten the ministry has control of Hogwarts?" he asked his old headmaster. "There will come a time in the future. However, you also seem to have forgotten that the future is looking a little bleak at the moment?"
The Old Man grimaced as it had slipped his mind for a moment. "B-but Harry you're The Calm, surely you could conquer the British Ministry with ease."
Harry shrugged. "I may be able to beat them, but it is not worth the risk right now with Voldemort willing to send us the natamagus and 'defectors' this way is simpler and less of a risk."
"Then what do we do?" Dumbledore asked in a small voice that was quite unlike his own.
"There's not much we can do right now," Harry replied with a shrug. "I guess we just sit back, train, wait, whatever… until it comes and then we fight and we die for the world around us!"
"But Harry surely there's something we can do?" Dumbledore asked desperately. "Hogwarts is like a home to me… I…"
"It's like a home to me too Professor, and many others too, but there is nothing we can do right now," Harry replied standing up. "I have to go now. Its lunch time, plus after lunch I promised Amanda and Abby I would give them some lessons, plus Tessa wanted some tutoring in charms."
Then without another word to Dumbledore Harry lifted his silencing charm and walked back towards the infirmary doors. "Coming to lunch Sirius?" he asked his godfather waiting by the door.
"Yeah okay," Sirius said getting up from his chair. "See you later Arthur," he said as both he and Harry left.
After a minuet of walking in silence on their way to the dining chamber Sirius broke and spoke. "So Harry what did you and Dumbledore talk about?" he asked curiously.
"Nothing that important," Harry replied with a mocking grin on his face that told Sirius he's lying and not telling. "I'll tell you some other time."
"So are you going to tell me about this Dragon Phoenix business or not?" he asked his godson. "Remus doesn't know much about it, just some great horror that you'll fight or something."
Harry laughed rolling his eyes. "I'm sure it's worse than that," he said causing Sirius to look unsure. "Don't give it too much thought, I'll tell you… eventually."
"And when will that be?" he asked as they entered the entrance hall full of noisy students on their way the dining chamber for lunch.
"Eventually," Harry told him mockingly as they climbed the steps leading up to the dining hall.
Sirius was about to reply in annoyance as they entered the dining hall but Harry was quick in leaving him behind and reaching his table with Tessa, Amanda and Ginny sitting with Hermione, Abby, and Frankie at their usual table. Sirius just sighed as he went and sat at the teachers table with Remus.
Harry sat down in between Hermione and Tessa. "What's up?" he asked them with a cheery grin.
"Not much," Hermione responded with a smile and roll of her eyes. "Though you should watch your back…"
He frowned at that last part curiously. "Why?" he asked raising his eyebrow. "Are you threatening me?" he asked in amusement.
"Don't be silly," she replied rolling her eyes. "I know I wouldn't stand a chance," she admitted sheepishly.
"It's just that pillock brother of mine," Ginny answered laughingly. "He doesn't seem to get what league you are in compared to him."
"Why? What's he done now?" Harry asked curiously.
"Oh he threatened to hex you," Amanda said sadly.
"Really?" he asked in surprise, though wasn't at all surprised. "Why's that?"
"Oh something about you not telling anyone what happened to me," Ginny answered. "And I think he's even more annoyed that nobody is trying to force you or me to tell them."
Harry laughed along with Ginny about that, but Amanda, Tessa, Frankie and Hermione looked worried. Abby was the only one who saw that Harry wouldn't lose a fight with some dipshit like him. It's surprising that Ginny is related to such a moron, and she thought she wasn't very in the know.
"Well he's just being silly," said Harry smiling. "Like he could hex me," he shook his head in humour.
"Harry," came a small voice from behind him. He turned to see May and April; it had been April who had spoken. "Can we sit down?" she asked so both Tessa and Hermione moved away from him so the youngsters could sit either side of him, which they did.
"Harry, why are you letting them wander around by themselves?" Hermione reprimanded. "That… horrible pug has tried attacking them before. If it weren't for… well lucky accidents they could have been hurt."
"Lucky acci… huh?" asked April looking confused. "Van… Vanille makes them go away…!" she said smiling brightly and nodding her head happily.
"Who's Vanille?" they all seemed to ask simultaneously.
Harry just shrugged. "One of the girl's bodyguards," he spoke shrugging as he turned to May trying not to laugh at her struggling to dish herself out some food.
"Would you like some help sweetie," he asked her lovingly. She looked up at him with loving bubbly blue eyes and nodded her agreement that she did need some help. "Okay you point to what you want and I'll dish it out for you." It took only a minuet for him to dish her up some food and he just smiled affectionately at her, and then looked to April to make sure she was okay, which she was.
"What bodyguards…?"
"Thank you Daddy..." May trailed off looking embarrassed.
Harry felt his heart stop beating for a moment, and everyone in the vicinity stopped eating to just stared at Harry and May. Harry felt his face burn red with his own embarrassment, he didn't know what to do or say, he couldn't believe what she had just said what she had called him. He didn't know whether to feel sad or happy.
It was obvious that she wanted to be loved and cared for that even though it had only been a short time since she had lost her parents that she wanted to move on with her life. She wanted a family and she wanted Harry to be that family. Harry had never had a real family of his own and he had spent a good part of his childhood hated and treated like filth.
He had never had someone he could really call a father except maybe Sirius, but still Harry felt he was too old to really think of Sirius as a father, an older brother maybe.
A father was someone who took care of their child, but Harry was quite capable of taking care of himself. He didn't want these two young girls to grow up without knowing a fathers love, and if that's what they wanted then that's what he would give them.
He was determined to make sure that these two sisters had everything he did not while he was their age. He put his arm around Mays shoulder and pulled her into a tight hug.
"You're welcome sweetie," he said kindly giving her a kiss on the head before letting her go.
She just looked up at him in wonder with a big loving smile on her face before continuing with her lunch. Harry looked away back to his lunch with a smile on his face and trying his hardest not to notice that everyone around him were looking at him like he was the craziest person in school, except his friends and girlfriend who all had happy tears in their eyes.
Girls… crazy…!
Harry saw that April was looking at him cheekily so he gave her a quick squeeze and a kiss on the head too, and she happily continued with her lunch. All through lunch, no one spoke and Harry tried not to smile to brightly when Ginny kept stealing loving glances at him.
See… girl's equals crazy!
By the end of lunch both Amanda, Abby, and Tessa had left and told Harry they would meet him outside the forth years common room so they can find somewhere for their lessons, but they had to go fetch their spell books first.
So Harry got up from the table and stroked both Aprils' and Mays' hair back and gave them both a kiss on the cheeks then gave Ginny a kiss on the lip and said bye to Hermione and Frankie, and told Ginny and the girls to enjoy their day out.
"Wait!" Hermione quickly called. "Seriously… what bodyguards?" she asked glare pouting at him.
"Err, ninja," he told her causing her to glare as if he's joking. "I'm serious; I have assigned my allied ninja clan… umm… 'assistants' that they sent… to guard and protect the girls…"
"B-but I haven't noticed them," she said looking around hoping to spot them.
"Umm… aren't ninja supposed to be good at hiding?" Frankie asked out of nowhere.
Harry laughed and rolled his eyes as he quickly hurried off after giving the little blondes another kiss on the check each before telling them to be good and hurrying off.
Ginny was spending the day with May and April, and Harry had given her some Galleons and asked her to take the girls shopping, which she and the girls were only too happy about. Harry didn't see what was so fascinating about clothe shopping and thought it must be a girl thing that he would probably never understand.
Harry had just entered the entrance hall and sidestepped as a beautiful young nineteen year old girl appeared and tried to fling her arms around his neck in a hug that he dodged with a smirk on his lips while she pouted.
He looked her over, her skin is surprisingly flawless, and her hair is strangely copper colour tied into small pigtails wearing a yellow sleeveless top that only covered her breasts showing off her smooth tone body. Around her neck she has several colourful necklaces, with several silver bracelets around her left wrist.
Her skirt is rippled, brown/yellow suede, hanging short just a few inches below her but with beads hanging on it. Her boots are suede with white fir around the top. And some kind of forked claw on a stick weapon folded on the back of her waist.
Her brilliant blue eyes sparkled with fake hurt as she pouted. "Meanie," she said stick out her tongue before her hand. "Can I have some money to shop too?" she begged hopefully.
Harry sighed rolling her eyes. "Sure, just make sure you look after them, but where are the other two?" he asked as he couldn't sense them nearby.
She just shrugged as he handed her a small bag of galleons. "They didn't want to go shopping so they said they're going to get some sleep," she answered shrugging. "Well, later Master. I've got to go," she said as she disappeared into the shadows of the wall.
Harry soon arrived outside the fourth year girls common room and had been waiting a few minutes for them to turn up and he was getting quite impatient waiting for them, and decided quietly to himself that if they're not down in another two minutes that he would go in and find them himself.
Two minutes later Harry opened the door and walked through. He felt a weird vibration running through his entire body, and for a brief second as he crossed the thresh hold he felt different like he wasn't completely himself, but as soon as the feeling came it was gone so he shrugged it off as nothing, probably a weird ward, and walked down the passage towards the common room.
When he entered, the common room there was only three girls there and none of them was the three girls he was looking for. As soon as they saw him they stopped their conversation and were staring at him like he was the oddest person in the universe.
"Err... hello" he said nervously. "Have any of you girls seen Amanda, Abby or Tessa?" he asked trying not to remember that a couple of days ago be saw one of these girls topless.
One of the girls after a few moments of nervous gawking at him pointed to a door at the far end of the common room.
"Err thanks," he said as he made his way over to the door, then knocked to make sure they're not changing or something.
"Come in…!"
A girl's voice called from the other side of the door. Harry opened the door to see Tessa, Abigail, and Amanda alone in the room sitting on one of the beds together talking about something.
Harry walked into the room and the door swung shut behind him. The room had about ten beds and three huge body length mirrors as well as five writing desks by the windows, and chests of draws and wardrobes.
Amanda and Abby smiled happy to see Harry while Tessa had a very confused look on her face, one similar to the three girls in the common room, but Harry shook off the thought of something being wrong.
"Hey," Harry greeted them glad that he didn't have to look too far. "Did you three get lost or something?" he asked chuckling.
"Sorry," Abby spoke blushingly. "W-we were talking and forgot. I haven't had any proper friends before," she added making them all feel a little uncomfortable.
"No problem," he said smiling kindly at her. "I completely understand the feeling."
"How did you get in here?" Tessa finally blurts out. Harry frowned at her in confusion and feeling slightly worried about her state of mind and wondering whether she should be sent back to the hospital wing.
"Through the door," he told her trying not to laugh and slightly amused with his own reply. Amanda and Abby though weren't able to keep from laughing and looked like they might never stop.
"But that's impossible," Tessa finally said when Amanda Abby stopped her giggling fit.
"Why? What do you mean?" he asked starting to feel a little concerned now.
"Because of the sex barrier," she told him as if that should be obvious, which thinking about it, it should be. "It shouldn't let a boy in," she explained for Abby and Amanda's benefit.
It dawned on him that she was completely right. The girl's dorms at Hogwarts had them too and it should have stopped him from getting in.
"That's just odd," he shrugged thoughtfully. "Maybe I'm just too powerful for the barrier to stop me," he wondered aloud.
"That doesn't matter," Tessa informed him rolling her eyes. "The walls would have flipped and thrown you out anyway."
Harry was really confused now he didn't have a clue how he could just walk through the sex barrier, for a second he thought they might have stopped working but then he thought back to the other time he came in, a boy tried to follow him but when Harry looked round he was on the floor still outside the girls dorm.
The two girls were staring in confusion at Harry while he just stood there in thought. The only way he could think for a guy to walk into the girls dorms would be to become a girl or tear the wards down, which he didn't do did he (well he knows he didn't touch the wards), but the idea was impossible, not even transfiguration or even pollyjuice potion could change someone from male to female completely.
Pollyjuice Potion only made you externally female while retaining all of your male internal organs while transfiguration was even harder to make yourself look female, and it was one hundred percent impossible to transfigure your internal organs and would most probably kill a person if they tried, and plus the sex barrier could also detect hormones and emotions and those were even more impossible to change.
It was with this thought that Harry remembered that odd vibration feeling that ran through his body when he walked through the door to the girls common room, and the wired feeling of not truly being himself after walking through. It only lasted for a second, but… no it couldn't be could it? Is he not messed up enough as it is?
He looked at Amanda an Abby who looked just as confused as they didn't have a clue what they were talking about. He then he looked at Tessa who seemed to be thinking along similar lines of impossible as himself being such a cleaver girl herself.
"You… " he trailed off too embarrassed to even be suggesting it or even thinking about it, but he had to so ploughed on to get it over with. "You don't suppose I could do you?" he asked going really red in the cheeks "L-like some kind of bloodline limit… err trait? I... I kind of felt really wired when I walked in," he said shifting uncomfortably on his feet, and Tessa looked just as embarrassed as he felt. "I kind of felt... well not completely me for a second when I came in," he tried to smile but he felt really stupid to be suggesting the impossible, this sort of thing wasn't covered during training.
"I don't know?" Tessa shrugged speaking quietly trying not to smile at his embarrassment. It was starting to get amusing now. "Maybe you should... you know... try?" she asked with a smile. "I bet you'll be beautiful," she added causing his cheeks to darken.
"Are you joking?" he asked gulping as she shook her head, smiling.
"What are you two talking about?" Amanda finally asked looking very confused and concerned.
"Just try?" Tessa asked a bit more forcefully, ignoring Amanda's question.
Harry looked over at the nearest body length mirror and walked over to it looking at his full reflection; he looked ghostly white and petrified. He had faced an army of Aurors and Death Eaters and even Voldemort without even thinking about being scared, but faced with this it was terrifying; though he would probably never admit it he was curious maybe if he could he would understand their love of shopping.
He closed his eyes trying to forget about the three girls watching him quietly sitting on the bed together behind him.
He tried to force that odd vibration through his body again, and it only took a moment when he felt it, and held it. His eyes snapped open in awe. The vibration ran through every inch of his body as he watched his body decrease in size and his eye turn an ocean blue, his hair thins out and increases in length and changes to a really dark red blonde down to his/her waist, his nose decreases in size and his face changes shape as well as his lips and teeth.
He couldn't believe it when he noticed his chest growing outwards not too large but not too small he could feel his muscle mass decreasing as well, like his muscles were compressing into his new form. He could feel his bodies' curves change and form, his feet were a few sizes smaller and he seemed to be thinking differently suddenly, he had thoughts which he would not even accidentally think about, ever. It was quite scary for a moment then for some reason he didn't mind in fact he liked his new thoughts.
Suddenly the odd vibrating feeling that was running through his body stopped and he was staring in complete shock into the mirror. One of the cutest girl he had ever seen, she was totally hot and he or she was totally freaking out. She was only about five foot five and looked perfect with her long dark red hair with streams of blonde throughout colouring it lighter in places, down to the small of her back.
She ran her hand up her arm and felt her skin it was so soft he or she couldn't help but give a nervous smile to herself. Then she put her hand down between her legs out of curiosity and for a second almost passed out through shock at what a guy is supposed to have not being there, but then reminded herself that technically she wasn't a guy anymore.
She saw in the mirror three ghostly white faced girls behind her just staring then, and then did the only thing that made sense to her at that moment; she pulled out her wand and transfigured her clothes.
She decreases the size of her shoes to fit and turned them into crimson boots that ran halfway up her shins, with black platformed soles with heals.
She transfigured her underwear making some white panties and a bra out of her tee. She changed her trousers into a cotton red and black plaid rippled skirt halfway down her thighs with a black belt and silver buckle.
She then transfigured her jacket into a black form hugging top that wrapped nicely around her body, with no sleeves or back, but wrapped around her neck with a high collar. It accentuated her chest and made her feel good looking so good, and she was so new/young that she had no blemishes that needed any make up to make her look very sexy.
She smiled at herself in the mirror, her plump red lips so kissable, or wanting a kiss at least. She couldn't believe how beautiful her smile was. She thought she could probably light up a room by just entering and smiling. Though, frowned a little at how conceited that sounded just thinking it. She'll have to keep that though to herself.
She lifted her fringe and saw that she no longer had her stupid ugly scar and grinned toothily showing off her cute little purely whites before she shrugged and added in some shading of purple to her eyes to bring out the sexy blue smirking.
"Damn, I look good," she muttered quietly to herself. "Real good," she added as an afterthought.
She then turned around to face the other three girls and their eyes almost bulged out of their heads in surprise. She giggled at them, and then put her hands to her mouth in shock at the girly noise she made. She then burst out laughing. It was a minuet or more before the other three girls got over their shock and started laughing as well.
"So what do you think?" the new girl asked with a soft adorable voice and a sparkle of humour in her beautiful ocean like blue eyes.
"Oh My God…!" Tessa blurted out with lusty eyes. "You're gorgeous!"
"Thank you! You're gorgeous too," she answered causing Tessa to burn red. "So what do you think I should call myself?" she asked in thought. "I think I want to keep up with the whole flower thing my family… nemagus family had going on."
"Nemagus?" the three girls asked together.
"Not magician in Latin, natamagus for arisen magician or non-magic born."
"Rose" Abby suddenly spoke smiling slightly. "Like the colour of your beautiful hair" she added blushingly.
"I like it," Rose says smiling laughingly. "But I think… Rosette sounds better for a full name," she said getting eager nods from the other girls.
It was then Rosette thought of something terrible, horrible even. She has female emotions so she might like boys and she didn't like that at all, so chewing on her bottom lip nervously she stared at Tessa… as Harry she fancied Tessa and she was happy to say that she still fancied her, so she slowly walked over to her and took her hand and guided her to stand up. Tessa looked ready to pass out standing staring into Rose's beautiful ocean blue eyes their noses almost touching.
Then Rosette leaned in the last inch and their lips touched, they slowly kissed and closed their eyes. Rose was shocked at how different it felt to kiss as Rose, so much more softly. They heard Amanda or Abby gasp at what they were doing but just ignored them, as Rose pushed her tongue gently inside Tessa's willing and eager mouth, their tongues touched and licked against each other's, cool and soft.
Tessa ran her hands and figures through Rose's long red hair while Rose stroked her figures through Tessa's shorter black hair. Tessa's hands slowly moved down Rose's back under her hair where they hesitated on the small of her back for a moment where she pulled Rose tighter into her body as her hands slid down the curves of Rose's back and groped Rose's bum firmly, she held it tight as their kiss grew in intensity.
Rose feeling quite left out snaked her hands caressingly down Tessa's back and found their way to her bum and squeezed it gently in both hands, pulling her in, feeling the curves of her body on hers.
She didn't know how long they were kissing and groping each other for but it felt so good that it could have been an eternity when they finally broke apart from their kiss. Panting like they had just ran a few hundred miles non-stop just staring at each other, Rose's heart was beating so fast it felt ready to burst through her chest.
"I think you kind of," Rose panted going slightly red in the cheeks. "Turned me on," she finished in a whisper smiling cheekily.
They heard both Abby and Amanda giggling next to them and they looked like they weren't going to stop anytime soon. They both let go of each other and just burst out laughing and grabbed a pillow each and throw them at the other two while giggling crazily.
"I can't believe you two just did that," Amanda says when they finally stopped laughing.
"Aww... did you want a kiss too?" Rose asks teasingly as her eyes sparkled mischievously. "And maybe cute little Abby too…?" she asked smirking as they hadn't the chance to respond or move as she talked them both, forcing them to lie back.
Rose's small hands easily held them both down as she practically lay on them both securely; her lips impacted Amanda's first hungrily parting her lips. Amanda didn't try to fight, and kissed back eagerly wrapping her arms around the red head tasting her tongue on hers until she pulled back leaving her breathless.
Rose licked her lips before she only too eagerly let her lips attack Abby's, kissing softly Abby returned the kiss reaching around Rose holding her tightly, their kiss deepening, their mouths parting and tongues meeting. They kissed for a few minutes before Rosette pulled back for breath sitting up on the two girls laps looking smug.
"I have a really good idea," she giggles evilly while licking her lips, she was please all three sets of eyes were on them.
"Err... w-what's that?" Tessa asked nervously going bright red in the face, obviously thinking more sinister thoughts than Rose was.
"Let's go down stairs," Rose said smirking. "And Tessa, you and I can make out down stairs," she laughs hysterically before abruptly stopping. "The pug will be there," she chuckled a little. "I want her to see, to make fun of us so I can smash her teeth down her throat. I'm a girl now so it's perfectly okay to do so," she said smugly. "So what if I have the strength to shatter concrete or put a boxer or most martial artist to shame."
The other two girls join in on Rose's evil laughter as she climbs off Amanda and Abby, and helps them up before the four girls leave the dorm room hand in hand on a scandalous mission.
They walked through the now empty common room giggling crazily and exited into the school halls. Rose asked the three girls to promise never to tell anyone of her new weird ability, which they of course promised.
"Are you going to tell Ginny?" Amanda suddenly asks nervously as they walk towards the entrance hall.
"Err..." she muttered in thought for a second then decided it wouldn't be fair not to tell her. "Yes I will... when she gets back… that's going to be a very embarrassing confiscation no doubt she'll find it amusing or something."
They all laughed as they entered the entrance hall full of students and they notice the pug there and she hadn't noticed them yet. Rose smirked in full-fledged amusement.
Rose quickly lets go of the girls hands and Amanda and Abby moved away from them obviously not wanting all the attention, so Rose puts her arms gently around Tessa neck and Tessa puts her hands either side of Rose's waist smirking but her eyes are shining with nerves.
Their lips touch moments later and Tessa's nerves disappeared in the feel of this beauty on her. They forgot that anyone else is even there for a moment until they heard the gasps of surprise from the surrounding students who no doubt had now noticed them. They continued for about a minute or two before pulling away but still holding each other and smiling cheekily.
"See I told you!" the horribly smug voice of the pug screeched through the hall, offending everyone's ears. "Dirty lesbo… now there are two of them…!"
Rose looked round to see the pug and a large number of students just gawking at them and Rose just felt very pissed about it, are these people really that stupid?
"What are you lot staring at!" Rose yelled angrily in annoyance. They all except the pug take a step back and most looked ashamed or fearful as she had let out a spike of magic in warning, but the Pug looked smug like she had won the Jackpot at a casino.
"We're staring at two horrid ugly dykes!" the pug yelled out triumphantly. Rose just thought that was quite funny and started laughing.
"Get lost you jealous fat pig faced cow!" Rose said while laughing and was pleased that both Amanda, Abby, and Tessa were laughing too. "You're calling me ugly when you're not allowed a mirror because they keep breaking, me and Tess are two of the best looking girls in this school and you're nowhere near the list for hottest, best looking or even average looking girls you're not even good enough to be on the list for ugliest girl in school," she giggled mockingly.
"How dare you... y-you bitch!" the pug screeched, and pulled back her fist right in front of Professor Calister and Sirius Black who obviously came into the hall to see what all the fuss was about.
Rose pushed Tessa out of the way into Amanda's arms as she side steps the punch grabs her wrist pulls her forward and rams her knee into the pugs stomach making her cry out in pain, gasping for breath before Rose pulled back her fist and punched her in the side of the face causing a huge cracking sound as she crashed to the floor out cold several yards away.
"What's going on?" Calister asked looking at the now unconscious pug on the floor, then at Rose who was now standing with her arms folded under her chest looking smug.
"Sorry ma'am," Rose said after a moment giving the teacher her best puppy-dog look, which would melt the hearts of devils. "B-but I had to teach her some much needed manners and respect for those that actually have the talent to get far in life without ridding daddy's… solid little pocket," she said smilingly as she let the innuendo float.
Sirius of course laughed and the Professor had to seriously bite her tongue or she would have too, but she saw what happened and if rumour about Harry actually having bodyguards in the school watching the two little blondes he's taken in, and the rumours that the… pug has been trying to harm them are true (she's certain they are) then the abusive girl may end up in an early grave if she doesn't get a clue.
"Someone take that horrible child to the infirmary," Calister said after a moment pointing to the Pug. A big ugly bruit of a boy rushed forward and levitated her away. "Everyone else, get back to what you were doing!" she demanded and everyone slowly walked away, some were even laughing about the pug being beaten up.
Professor Calister then turned back to Rose and smiled kindly at her. "I don't think I've seen you around Miss...?"
"Err…" She thought hard. "Trance…" she said slowly referring to the whole transfiguration girl boy ability she has.
"Miss. Trance what year are you in?" Calister asked curiously, and Rose smirked inwardly with a cheeky plan.
"Forth Professor," she lied wanting to get put into Ginny's classes. "I've only just arrived from England so I haven't had a chance to register yet."
"Oh well I'll take you up to visit the headmaster then," Calister said kindly leading her away from her friends.
"See you three cuteys later!" she called to Amanda, Abby, and Tessa as she followed her Professor towards the headmaster's office.
Ginny Weasley had just arrived back from Salem town with May and April, and some weird girl the girls like, supposedly one of their bodyguards, Vanille, after having a long and exciting day of shopping and they had bought a lot of new clothes for the girls and even ate lunch out in the town pub.
The girls with Vanille's assistance and prompting had practically bought everything in the clothes shops whether they were nemagus designed clothes (something of a rarity in the shop), or wizard designed clothes they liked them all.
Ginny and her two young charges walked into the entrance hall with Vanille where they found Hermione who had planned to put May and April to bed tonight so Ginny and Harry can hang out together with their friends for a while.
"Did you have a good day girls?" Hermione asked May and April.
"Yep…!" April chimed happily. "It was wicked cool, we bought loads of new clothes!" she told her happily motioning towards the twenty or more full bags floating behind them while yawning sweetly. "Ginwy's the best," she added still not saying her name right but Ginny loved them too much to mind. "And Vanille came to and we had fun, Vanille didn't buy much coz she says magical world is dated and not fashionable!"
"You're their bodyguard?" Hermione asked the weirdly dressed girl doubtfully.
Vanille moved swiftly and was suddenly behind Hermione. "Yep, that's me," she agreed smilingly as Hermione had paled and looked round in shock.
Hermione gulped and turned back to the girls and ignored Ginny's suppressed laughter. "Well come on then let's get you two to bed," Hermione said pulling out her wand and taking over the levitation of their shopping. "You two look very tired," she said bye to Ginny and Vanille, and Ginny and Vanille gave the girls a kiss each good night before Hermione took the two young girls off to their room and a well-deserved sleep.
"Shouldn't you go with them?" Ginny asked the copper haired girl curiously.
"Na," she shook her head in disagreement. "The boys have just taken over so I can do whatever until morning. so… I can hang with you guys right? I'm not very tired right now, and I barely get to hang out and do normal stuff, especially with the whole end of the world thing coming."
"Shh…!" Ginny hushed her quickly. "We don't want the world to find out and panic… panic is not good. But yes, you can hang out if you want."
"Coollio!" she declared happily smiling as she followed after Ginny to her friend Amanda, Abby, and Tessa as they were seated waiting presumably for her with some stunningly beautiful red haired girl.
The girl seemed so familiar, but yet she couldn't quite place where she might have met her before. It's one of those infuriating things when you just can't quite remember something, something important.
"Hello Gin," she said cheerfully, Ginny didn't have a clue how she knew her name and thought that maybe either Tessa or Amanda might have told her. "Hey Vanille," she added which even surprise the ninja-girl.
"Err... hello," Ginny replied blushing shyly.
"Ginny!" Amanda said happily. "This is Rose," she told her with a cheeky grin. "Who's your friend?" she asked curiously.
"Umm… Vanille, one of the girl's bodyguards but she's off the clock now, so I said she can hang with us.
"Well, it's very nice to meet you both," Rose said standing up and surprisingly gives Ginny a warm affectionate hug. It surprisingly felt familiar somehow, and so very warm. She then broke the hug and didn't hesitate in giving the surprised and confused Vanille a hug, which she returned before they pulled back.
"It's nice to meet you too," Ginny finally replied even redder in the cheeks with embracement and uncertainty. "Have we met before?" Ginny suddenly asked.
Rose just grins knowingly with Amanda, Abby, and Tessa. "Yep," she said knowingly. " We are quite familiar, come with us you two, and we'll tell you a funny story," she adds grabbing Ginny's and Vanille's hand and leading them down the corridor, with Amanda and Tessa following suit giggling.
They reached an empty classroom and all six girls entered. Rose closed the door, pulled out her wand and sealed it. The class room shut down before she then used several different privacy charms to assure no one can eavesdrop on their confiscation or see them using the empty class.
Ten minutes later and Ginny and Vanille was laughing in hysterics having to be held up by Rose and Tessa so she didn't fall to the floor. Rose had told them who she is, and even what they did in the entrance hall, and even though Ginny and Vanille still weren't sure they believed that Rosette is… was Harry they found the whole kissing in front of the school, and breaking the pugs jaw too funny to be able to ask for proof straight away or even stand up by herself. Though after about three or four more minutes they stopped laughing, though still had some tears of joy in their eyes
Now we want proof," they chimed together.
"Okay," she replied shrugging. "I'm the Calm before the Storm," she said smugly getting two sets of wide eyes. "Vanille keeps trying to hug me off-guard but never has, and Ginny… makes a sexy dark chick."
"Oh My God," Ginny says struggling not to burst out laughing again. "My boyfriend is the hottest girl in school." At that all six girls burst into fits of laughter and practically falling all over the floor in their amusement.
"You do realize that I am technically the same person but at the same time a different person," Rose informs her smilingly. "I have all the girly thoughts emotions and hormones I'm just glad I still like girls," she giggled with the other three.
Rose lifted Ginny's face up to eye level with hers her hand under her chin then leaned in half expecting Ginny to move away, but she didn't. Their lips touched and they slowly kissed and Rose being the more adventurous slowly and passionately parted Ginny's lips with her tongue.
Their tongues massaged against each other's taste, they both wrapped their arms around each other pulling their bodies tighter to each other in their now lustful embrace, feeling each other. The intensity of their kiss getting fiercer and fiercer as they enjoyed each other's touch, hands squeezing placing, lusty places.
When they both finally came apart, it must have been a very long extended kiss they were both panting for air that they had lost in their passion still holding each other possessively.
They looked over to see Amanda and Tessa kissing with almost as much passion as Ginny and Rose were. However, next to them Vanille had obviously felt left out and was making out with Abby, groping at the younger girls ass lustfully.
Ginny was quite shocked by this and Rose looked on biting her lower lip at how hot this is, before she started giggling, which in turn made Ginny giggle and the two other pairs of girls pulled away looking highly embarrassed, though, Vanille just looked sheepish and took her time letting Abby go, her blue eyes filled with lust and want, which Rosette hoped weren't noticeable in hers.
"You-you know what I can't wait to do," Rose suddenly asked the other five girls, her breathing uneven and her heard ponding a lustful rhythm.
"W-what's that?" Tessa asked suspiciously, with a tint of hope.
"To see myself in front of a mirror," she explained with a smirk to their looks of confusion.
"Huh…?" Tessa asked frowning. "But you transformed in front of a mirror," she answered baffled.
"Yes I did," she raised her eyebrows suggestively and the five other girls finally understood.
"Oh can we come too?" Vanille asked jokingly. Though, Rose knew she wasn't joking but being quite serious as her eyes roamed up and down Rose's body in less time than the other girls could think. "We can give you our opinions," she giggled.
"Well," Rose replied thoughtfully. "You can come if you want. I don't mind."
"Really… are you serious?" asked Tessa sounding too hopeful and eager.
"Of course," she said with a cheeky grin. "You can come see me without my clothes on if you take your clothes off too." She laughed at their embarrassment, well Vanille was readily nodding to her terms.
"Okay…!" Rose was completely shocked that it was Ginny that had just agreed to it first, and even more so by the lustful look Ginny was giving her and gulped when Ginny continued looking at the other girls in a similar way. "How about you girls?" she asked them, they glanced at each other, then at Ginny and Rose then they smiled with dirty glints in their eyes.
"We're in!" they answered together giggling.
"Oh-Kay," Rose said liking the idea more and more. It sounded so sexy, and dirty, and hot. "Where shall we go?"
"Does anyone know the password to the prefect's bathroom?" Ginny asked. Both Tessa and Amanda shook their heads sadly but Rose was smirking in amusement, and all three girls were now looking at her hopefully.
"We don't need the password," she told them. Ginny and Vanille smiled realising why, but the other girls looked confused.
"Of course we do," Tessa told them sadly.
"No we don't," Ginny said corrected. "Rose can just apparate us there… remember she can apparate through the anti-apparation wards." And that got the other girls smiling again.
"Tess," Rose suddenly asked realising something important.
"Um… yeah?" she asked curiously.
"Do you know where the prefect's bathroom is?" Rose asked sheepishly.
"Yeah… do you need directions?" she asked starting to worry a bit.
"No just keep eye contact with me and picture it in your mind," Rose told her as her heart beat faster with excitement.
"Okay but why?" she asked curiously.
"So she can pull it from your mind without seeing anything you wouldn't want her to," Ginny answered for her. Tessa visibly gulped but kept looking into Rose's eyes picturing the location of the prefect's bathroom.
"Got it," Rose said triumphantly. "Hold onto me… we'll be there in a second…!"
All five girls nervously took hold of Rose's arms, and then in a flash of white wind all six girls were gone leaving the sealed classroom empty.
