Notes: An abused boy finds out he's a wizard and a hero; his tormented mind rebels. One person sees through the misconceptions to the real Harry and treats him the way he deserves. How does this change them both and those around them?
Chapter 24- Blaise's vision comes true sort of?
The attacks on Muggles had stepped up since the breakout from Azkaban, the Aurors and even members of the old Order of Phoenix had stepped up. The ministry didn't hide and say that these terrible things weren't happening. Minister Amelia Bones was well liked and she claimed that they were doing everything they could to capture those responsible. She said that they had brought in everyone they could retired Aurors, retired Hit Wizards, members active and retired of Magical Law Enforcement Patrol and Ministry of Magic Witch Watchers.
Lucius and Shacklebolt had been on numerous trips to France and Italy amoung others to get support from other Ministries of Magic in case the Dark Lord tried to gain support like he had before. Lucius knew he was digging himself a grave because of his actions against the Dark Lord and his former companions the Death Eaters. He had to make sure that this world was safer for his children and grandchildren. He just hoped that he could help strike a decisive victory against them; he was a very accomplished duelist. He had no desire to go down like Fabian and Gideon Prewett but he would rather fight and die rather then languish in Azkaban like Bellatrix had.
XoooooX
Blaise's visions had proved helpful, saving Arthur's life as well as giving the Ministry a heads up about the escaped Prisoners from Azkaban. In the shock of a break out the names might have taken time to surface but special additions to the Daily Prophet had gone out immediately.
Trying to balance school, Charlie's career as the Cannons' primary Seeker as well as two babies and three eggs was very trying…
Blaise was busy but happy…
He loved his husband and their children with every bit of his heart. He had to graduate early; he couldn't handle five kids under two next year and classes. He very much doubted Charlie could too, he couldn't ask Charlie to give up flying for the Cannons. Charlie had given up his career at the Dragon Preserve to be with him and he knew that Charlie loved dragons.
Blaise smiled, curling up on a run near the fire. His babies sleeping in their cradles near the hearth and his eggs were in a basket beside him. He'd rest a bit…
XoooooX
Harry was rocking Tritan with his foot while writing his Potions essay.
Draco was writing an essay for Charms and an essay for Runes, typical of his husband to be multi-tasking. He was also absentmindedly rocking their daughter.
Harry was glad that Sirius was out of the castle; it was better for him to be out there hunting bad guys rather then being around here. Poor Charity, she seemed so pale and worried nowadays. He wished he could do something for her…
Sirius was more open-minded about papa and dad's relationship but you could tell it made him uncomfortable. His main reason for refusing a relationship was because Sirius was so horrible to papa. Sirius and Charity seemed to be getting closer, as that happened Ginny started becoming more silent and withdrawn. His sister Coraline was also becoming even more quiet and withdrawn, between her abilities and her isolation due to her curse she felt alone. He knew that and tried to make her feel apart of the family, taking the twins up to see her. She had nightmares often because of the crushing sensations she got about bad things happening. Unlike Blaise she didn't see them happen but she felt them, why did his sister have such abilities?
They had the information Bill gave them about the type of curse but Blaise said it wasn't time to break it yet and they didn't know who was supposed to break the curse. Harry wanted his sister free of the curse so she could have a shot at a real life. He wanted to break the curse because of he was her brother and he wanted to protect her like he wanted to protect Aurelian and Lucan.
XoooooX
Blaise knew Coraline was suffering and he would do anything to take the curse away, she was family. Draco was his brother in every way that mattered and she was his sister in law. He sighed; he hated the concept of timing. Knowing how to break a curse was one thing but knowing when was the right time was imperative.
XoooooX
Luna paced, she felt trapped. Trapped by her abilities and her curse, she had her looks by blood and her magical inheritance from her blood parents. Blaise was right; it wasn't time to break the curse. Two wonderful parents had raised her, only to lose one tragically at age eight. Who was to break the curse? According to their curse expert she couldn't break it herself. It would take someone very powerful, she chewed on her lip, if Harry undid her blood adoption out of love could someone break her curse with love?
She glanced at Hermione; the poor girl was a prefect and had to spend every waking minute at her side. Luna felt bad, Hermione wore a rose from Viktor every day and they wrote long letters but between watching her and school work. Seeing her brother so happy with Draco and Draco with Harry, Blaise and Charlie, Uncle Severus and Uncle Remus, Miss Cissy and Mr. Lucius, as well as Miss Annie and Mr. Ted made her wish for love like that.
Hermione had dozed off, smiling with her head on her Ancient Rune's text Spellman's Syllabary.
Luna knew she should stay in here but between her ability to sense changes in magic and her curse, she felt trapped and needed to get out…
She knew better then to leave this suite but she needed to breathe…
She exited the tapestry, Luna knew she should go out on the balcony instead but she felt an urge to walk the corridors.
Luna had barely taken two steps when she tumbled to the floor as if she'd been pushed. She yelped out of shock, after so long with her brother and his friends she'd almost forgotten what it had been like to be bullied.
"Oh dear. I'm so sorry. Are you alright?"
Luna blinked the person was apologizing? It was a boy's voice, one which sounded just a bit familiar. "I think so. I wasn't watching when I came out."
A hand appeared in front of her flyaway reddish hair shyly she took it. "Let me help you up."
"Thanks.
"There now." The voice said as they helped her, "Are you alright?"
Luna blushed, nodding, "Uhuh."
"I haven't seen you before. I'd remember."
Luna looked up to find a boy about her size, she was a bit on the short side for a fourth year but she was barely thirteen after all. He looked familiar, but Luna Persephone Lovegood would have to disappear she knew that, at least for now. Luna have him a smile, he hadn't let go of her hand, "I'm sure you haven't. I've visiting my godfathers, professors Prince. My name is Coraline Potter."
The boy grinned, shaking her hand, "Dennis Creevey, Second year. I'm a Gryffindor."
Luna laughed, "I'm sure you are. Uncle Remus said that Gryffindor Tower was nearby. I wanted to come for a visit and he is letting me stay up here. With the twins there isn't much room in their apartment."
"I could show you around the tower. The password is set to change tomorrow anyway."
Luna shook her head; "I shouldn't have left my room without my friend."
"Who is your friend?" Dennis asked curious.
"Hermione Granger, she's a prefect." Luna grinned, "She was sleeping and I wanted to wander a bit. Was it possible this boy wasn't affected by her curse? She remembered something Blaise said, about his having an idea of who she was supposed to be with. That it would be someone they would approve of. She shivered, sensing a familiar dark aura. Tugging on Dennis' hand, "Come with me."
Together they ducked behind the tapestry and into the passage that led to the Head Boy's suite.
After a few minutes Luna began to breathe easier…
"Are you okay Coraline?"
Luna nodded, "I just had a feeling that we would be happier in here."
Dennis looked around when they entered the room, it looked far more lived in then someone visiting but he didn't say anything.
Someone woke at their footsteps.
Hermione leapt up, wand drawn, "Creevey? What are you doing here?"
"Granger? Coraline invited me."
Hermione glanced at her friend, "Coraline?"
"I wanted to go for a walk because I felt a bit trapped." Coraline said with her chin set a bit definitely, "Dennis crashed into me but he helped me up."
Hermione knew such a simple gesture would mean a lot to a traumatized girl. "Thank you, for helping her." She fixed Luna with a piercing gaze, her wand returning to his case and her hands on her hips, "If you were going to go for a walk why did you come right back?"
Luna shivered, "I felt someone. Someone familiar, a someone who never means well when we meet. So I thought it best to return before someone got hurt." Luna mouthed, Ginny.
Hermione nodded, "Why don't we send for some biscuits and chocolate before I firecall Viktor?"
Dennis' eyes shone with excitement, "Biscuits and Chocolate?"
"It is a bit nippy don't you think? Warm biscuits and hot chocolate will do us all a bit of good." Hermione smiled, summoning Dobby and making the request.
Soon Luna and Dennis were at the table sipping hot chocolate and eating warm gingerbread biscuits from Malfoy Manor.
Hermione saw a flash of green fire and ran to kneel at the fireplace.
"Ahren?"
"Viktor!" Hermione cried out immensely pleased.
Dennis leaned over to whisper, "Who is Viktor?"
Luna giggled, "Viktor Krum, her boyfriend."
"Not the Viktor Krum, the Durmstrang Champion and the Bulgarian Seeker from the Quidditch World Cup? They're still together?" Dennis asked a bit shocked.
Luna grinned, "Yes and madly in love. Should have seen them during the holidays, I thought Viktor was going to sweep her off her feet and they'd run away to get Bonded." They had been around a bit, spending time at Hermione's parents and at Viktor's home in Bulgaria as well as around her new family. Not that it would matter if they had run away; you could get legally bonded at sixteen without parental consent according to the Ministry. There was a place in Australia where witches and wizards could get bonded right away without having to wait for a license. It didn't seem like they were in a hurry to be bonded, after all her brother and Draco, as well Blaise and Charlie were already bonded and they were younger then Hermione.
"Coraline, you know you don't look familiar but I feel like I've met you before." Dennis said as he searched her face.
Luna stared into her empty mug of chocolate, "Maybe you have. Maybe you like others looked without truly seeing."
Dennis stared at her, "You sound like Colin when he is telling me something for my own good."
Luna blushed glancing up at him, "You're so lucky to have a brother, its nice having someone look out for you. I'm just getting to know mine, we were separated as infants."
Hermione spun around to give her a piercing look, raising her eyebrow like a displeased mother.
Luna laughed, "Hermione with all you know about my abilities don't you think I would know if Dennis was trustworthy or not?"
Hermione scoffed, "I would if I hadn't seen you act without thinking before. You know what happened last time you left this room. I have a right to be concerned. I swore to keep you safe."
Dennis was even more confused, was Coraline a prisoner? Why would this visiting girl need to be constantly watched by the smartest girl is school and the only one he'd even discovered who'd taken her OWLS early and scored full marks in every subject.
"I am the one who can sense changes or ill intent. Dennis' magical aura is as pure as fresh snow. He like me is the youngest, he has a protective older brother who loves him very much and who he respects." Luna said softly.
Dennis blinked how did she know all that? It was true but they had barely met…
Luna laughed lightly reading the surprise in his eyes, "My magic is special I can read a person easily its like reading a book. Some people need more then just a skim to understand them. People like you are rare, so honest and innocent. I like that. There are moments when my brother is like that and then he seems to drift into himself and you can read the pain. He tries to pretend it isn't so but I can tell. He watches the babies and he gets so quiet. His childhood was terrible; but he was rescued because of love. Uncle Severus and Draco love him so much, knowing Harry is something I can tell changed them all."
Dennis blinked again; she spoke of her brother and Harry in the same breath. Were they one and the same? Coraline and Harry did share the same last name but in all the stories Colin told him about the Wizarding world Colin never mentioned that the Great Harry Potter had siblings much less a younger sister. Hadn't Coraline said they'd been separated as infants?
Luna liked watching him think; observing him silently so Hermione could go back to her floo call with Viktor.
XoooooX
Dennis stood up at eight, "I should be returning to the Tower." He took Coraline's hand and kissed it the way he'd seen Seamus do for Colin. "Sweet Dreams Princess."
Luna shivered as she felt his lips on her skin, "Good…good night."
"I won't tell anyone about Harry being your brother, I promise. I have nothing bad to say about him and Malfoy. I hope they are as happy as my brother is with Seamus."
Luna wished she could have seen him fly; he was a Seeker just like Harry. In fact, hadn't Dennis replaced Harry as the Lion's Seeker? Unable to say goodbye she followed him back to the tapestry.
Dennis grinned at her, "You know my princess locked in a tower, someday I'll find out why you're hidden away. Then I'll try to rescue you."
Luna blushed, he wasn't affected by her curse and he wanted to rescue her?
Dennis leaned over and kissed her forehead, "Goodnight, try not to go exploring alone Princess."
The tapestry opened; there across the corridor waiting was Ginny Weasley.
"Well well, what have we here? It's the littlest Creevey coming out of a secret passage with a unknown girl. Isn't the passage to the Head Boy's suite?"
Luna was not happy with this, why didn't she sense Ginny?
"Weasley, go away." Dennis said a bit annoyed.
"Oh no Little Creevey. I have a score to settle with you. You took my place."
"What are you talking about Weasley?"
"I'm supposed to be Gryffindor's Seeker. Then Harry will fall in love with me and I'll be Lady Potter."
Luna's jaw dropped, she must be mad. "Harry is already Bonded to someone. He's bonded to Draco who is the consort of Lord Potter."
"Lies. Harry can't be bonded to anyone but me." Her wand came up.
Luna's magic shimmered like white golden flames around her, "Do not presume that you can change fate lost little girl."
"I'm older then you. I'm the chosen future bondmate of Lord Harrison Potter." Ginny said in a madden voice.
"I want to feel sorry for you. I know your brothers."
"My brothers? My brothers are dead."
Luna blinked, "They are very much alive and well. I just saw them at Christmas."
"LIAR!"
At the same moment Ginny yelled out her curse Luna spun around pulling Dennis to her and muttered, "Dusk Illusion." Trusting her magic as the centaurs said she must.
A shield that shimmered like a sunset surrounded them and Ginny's magic crackled against it but didn't reflect.
"BITCH!" Ginny screamed, "I'll kill you."
"What the hell is wrong with Weasley?" Dennis asked. "I didn't know you'd met."
"In a way we have. I was a student here at one point. I'm sort of on home study at the moment." Luna said still holding onto the boy.
"Cora…Ginny! I knew I shouldn't have let you out of my sight. I am sick of this, Soul reflection!"
A red light bust from Hermione and crashed into Ginny, the wild Gryffindor screamed and then crumpled.
Hermione put away her wand, "Dennis why don't you Coraline go back to the suite. I'll deal with this mess." She summoned Dobby, "Dobby be a dear and go retrieve Professors Prince, Lord Malfoy, Adrian, Draco and Harry. I think that Ginny's worn out her welcome."
XoooooX
An hour before…
The babies were sleeping in their cribs and their homework was done, so Draco had Harry sprawled out on their bed.
Harry groaned as Draco's nails ran down his side and his bondmate sucked on his nipples, which were still sore since feeding their children an hour ago. "Dray…"
"Yes love. I love how you say my name."
Harry was getting hard, feeling Draco's swelling cock was driving him insane. "Please enough foreplay. I want you inside."
"Good things come to those who wait Adder."
Their flames were mixing and caressing, as did their skin.
Draco's mouth moved down his body, licking, nipping and sucking.
Harry was wild with need, "Dray please…"
Gentle hands spread Harry's legs apart, Draco groaned seeing Harry so eager made him nearly mad with desire. Between school and the twins they got s little alone time that moments like this were precious and he hated to rush it. He licked the pearl of pre-um on Adder's cock taking it in his mouth as he absently cast the charms they used to prep his bondmate.
Harry whimpered as he felt a warm tongue slither over his entrance, "Bloody hell."
"Such a dirty mouth Adder."
"Stop teasing me."
"Enough foreplay then."
Harry groaned as he felt Draco sink into his body, wrapping his arms around his bondmate's next and his thighs around slim hips. "Yes…"
Slow, gentle thrusts that tickled Harry's prostate and made them both wild. Their magic rose and fell with each thrust, their flames burning with more intensity.
By the fire their familiars were soon in human form draining the excess power from their masters.
After about two rounds Draco kissed Harry and went to retrieve the prearranged sandwiches and chocolate from Dobby who just Apparated into their room.
Only Dobby was ringing his hands and bowing, "Sorry Master Draco. Dobby will iron his hands for this. Miss Hermione says must come. Miss Coraline be attacked again by that nasty Weezy."
Harry jumped out of bed, semen dripping down his body, "That bitch did what?"
Dobby's eyes filled with tears, "Weezy attacked Missy Cora. Missy Cora okay she has Master Creevey with her. Miss Hermione wants you. Dobby must go summon Professors Prince."
"Go." Draco ordered.
Harry summoned Dippy, "Take the babies to Mother."
"Yes Master Harry."
Harry dressed in a flash and was running out of their rooms.
Draco had the foresight to grab Adrian who was just on his way into the Dungeons with Neville.
XoooooX
Remus was tending to a fussy Aurelian who seemed to have a bit of a cold.
Severus was writing a report on his Basilisk Anti-venom potion for a presentation to Potioneers World.
There was a pop.
Remus spun, "Dobby?"
"Miss Hermione wants you. That nasty Weezy attacked Missy Cora."
Remus' wolf growled, "What!" he wanted to string that girl up for a very long time now this was the second time that she'd attacked his goddaughter and he wouldn't stand for it.
Severus knocked over his inkpot, "I'll kill her."
Remus' wolf growled, "Take Aurelian and Lucan to Narcissa."
Grasping wands the two Heads of Hogwarts Houses raced from their rooms towards Gryffindor Tower.
XoooooX
Luna was about shaken from finally standing up Ginny Weasley, one of her oldest tormentors. She shivered, how could Ginny and Ron come out of a family like the Weasleys?
"Are you cold Coraline?"
Luna shook her head, "Just fighting bad memories."
"I'd like to know what's going on and why that Weasley girl did that."
Luna crumpled into a chair, "It's complicated, "You see, my blood parents died before I was born and I was transferred still living into a host mother who raised me for eight years. I had been subjected to a botched blood adoption my brother reverse during fall term."
"Blood adoption? What's that?"
"Some crazy old man changed me to look like my new parents. I used to attend here back when my name was Luna Persephone Lovegood."
"Luna Lovegood?" The girl who disappeared after being attacked by three Hufflepuffs, four Ravenclaws and Weasley? The girl semi-responsible for the Prefect Reassignments and the suspension of her house team was sitting before him.
"Yes, but my real name, the name my blood parents chose was Coraline Dorena Potter and I'd prefer to go by that even if it upsets Daddy." Luna said into her hands.
"So why did she attack you then?"
"Because…because of my curse. Hermione calls it the 'kick me' curse. When she was in Muggle school some kid put a sign on her sweater that said 'kick me'. She spent most of her childhood before Hogwarts friendless and bullied. People without strong enough wills and were suggestible were made to attack me." Luna spoke just above a whisper, "you're the first person besides my brother, his friends and family who aren't affected."
"So the princess is locked in the tower because of a curse?"
Luna blushed nodded as she peeked through her fingers.
"If your brother can reverse your blood adoption why hasn't he broken your curse?" Dennis asked curious.
"Well, it's complicated. You see our friend Blaise is a powerful seer, he said that my curse isn't meant to be broken yet."
"Can it be broken?"
Luna nodded, "Mr. Bill wrote out the counter-curse."
"That settles it princess, I'm breaking the curse."
Luna's hands fell from her face in shock, "You're what?"
"I'm breaking your curse princess and no one is changing my mind." Dennis said with a smirk, "they don't call us Creevey stubborn and loyal for nothing."
This stubborn Muggleborn's determination reminded her of Hermione…Luna blushed, "If you think you can, it was cast by a very powerful wizard, one of the most powerful."
"You shouldn't be locked away princess, you should be able to walk corridors at your whim and visit the library. A Ravenclaw shouldn't be away from a library for too long." Dennis teased.
XoooooX
Harry arrived wheezing slightly at his dead run for the tower.
Hermione stood over the prone unconscious Ginny Weasley, "Was wondering when you'd show up. I've had enough of this embarrassment to Gryffindor's everywhere."
Adrian grimaced reaching them with Draco and Neville beside him, "She attacked again. What is this her fourth offense?"
"I think she's finally lost it. I wish they'd sent her to St. Mungos before."
"It's not nice to call someone mad." Neville said quietly.
Severus sneered, "Well Bellatrix Lestrange is as mad as they come."
Neville winced at the name of the woman partially responsible for his parents' stay in St. Mungos' Janus Thickey Ward. "I suppose she would count."
"So Professor Prince, what should we do?" Adrian asked quietly, an arm around Neville's shoulders.
Severus conjured a stretcher and levitated the catatonic Ginny Weasley onto it. "We'll take her to St. Mungos. I would inform Bill as to her condition, since Arthur has disowned her that makes her Bill's problem."
"but what about her mother?" Harry asked.
"Legally, she is under the custody of the head of her family. Her father may have disowned her but she was still born for the Weasley family and therefore is under the jurisdiction of the Lord of that family. Unless Bill disowns her too, which makes her Charlie's responsibility as head of her Mother's house. If Arthur divorced Molly then Ginny would be part of Charlie's house." Severus shrugged, "Let's get this over with."
Remus held out his hand reluctantly for Hermione's wand. "I'm sorry dear but I'll have to get you to give me your wand."
Hermione shrugged, "I didn't use my wand but I'll obey protocol."
Blaise's voice came from behind them, "Both their magic is increasing, they'll need to be bonded soon. Like Coraline said Draco grounds Harry, if they don't Bond so they're grounded they'll lose control of their magic. They can't afford to lose control."
Hermione blushed, "Bonded? Now?"
Harry grumbled, "She's barely thirteen, I don't even want to think about her having sex much less bonded."
Remus nodded, "I don't either."
Severus sighed, "Having Muggle parents will be a problem. If we told Lily's parents that her magic was getting too powerful and that she must marry before be graduated school they would have laughed. Besides, I'm not sure Viktor would agree."
Blaise snorted, "He is taking it slow because Hermione is a Muggleborn and he understands that Muggles have different views. One of his fathers was raised Muggle and was against a relationship with another man. He doesn't want to push Hermione even though he has every intention of being bonded to her."
Remus asked a bit annoyed, "Coraline doesn't even have a boyfriend."
Blaise chortled, "Oh really? Then explain who the boy who was with her when Ginny attack them? The one in her rooms, the one who is going to break her curse?"
Remus glared at Hermione, "There is a boy in her room?"
"He took her back there after I subdued Ginny. He's a good boy, Coraline said his aura is a pure as fresh snow."
Blaise snickered, "Of course it is, what do you expect it's Dennis Creevey."
Hermione raised an eyebrow, "How do you know?"
"I had a vision of what might happen today. Did she try to sneak out to go for a walk while you were sleeping?"
Hermione blushed, "yeah but she came right back."
Blaise blinked, "Oh then she must have sensed Ginny then."
Hermione nodded, "she told me she sensed someone with ill intentions and I figured out it was her." Pointing at the blessedly silent redhead. "I just wasn't expecting Coraline and Dennis to get attacked because she was lying in wait for them."
"No one would be." Blaise muttered, except him. If he'd only know his vision had been about today maybe he could have prevented it a little but he knew he wasn't supposed to. It was Ginny's attack that brought out Coraline's power and Dennis' determination to protect her. She was barely between Colin and Dennis in age, not that he thought age would matter to Dennis.
"We'll discuss ramifications later. Harry, go look after your sister. Blaise go inform Bill that he might be interested that a member of his house is heading to St. Mungos. Hermione can go sit in Remus' office until we figure things out. After all Ginny did pull out her wand first."
Remus pocketed the fallen Gryffindor's wand leading Hermione to the Headmistress' tower. He had to report any case of wand usage in the corridors, explaining that Ginny was been subdued without a wand would not be a pleasant task
~AUTHORS NOTE- IMPORTANT~
Now we dive right into more drama!
Sorry Fixed it. I don't know how that happened. I guess I chose the wrong file...
