Chapter 8

Draco just stares wide eyed at the couple in front of him and still cant believe what he is seeing. He had first met Daphne in their first year and she has always acted in front of the whole school as a cold hearted bitch. The only two people that he had ever noticed that she was close to was Tracy Davis and Blaise Zabini. But right now here in front of him at the Black family home she is smiling with such a heart warming look on her features, her eyes shining with so much love and an untold amount of warmth at the man that she is sitting on.

It's then that a thought crosses his mind that causes his eyes to minded and to begin to go pale, and with out thinking he blurts out.

"Is this why you tossed me through that glass door, cause I tried hitting on Greengrass throughout our whole first year. Look man I didn't know and my father was trying to get a marriage contract for her at the time!"

Harry and Daphne look at him strangely before bursting out laughing at his jumble of words. In between their laughing at Draco's reaction Harry manages to reply.

"Not at all the only reason I had at the time was that you where being a pompous ass and needed an attitude adjustment. I was unaware that you where attempted to do that, maybe I should see how far you can fly unassisted."

Draco just groans at that statement then pales further at hearing that.

"So are you going to tell me how long you two have actually known each other and how you met. Cause I'm going to guess that this isn't a whirlwind romance, you both are way to comfortable with each other."

Draco looks pointedly at both Hadrian and Daphne during his statement. Daphne just shrugs before she responds.

"We have known each other since we where like two years old I guess."

Harry then picks up the next part of the conversation and poking Daphne's side while she squirms in his embrace with a teasing tone

"This one's godfather was the one that took me and Sirius with him after my parents were killed by Voldemort."

Before Draco can ask Harry why Daphne's godfather would come and take him in or how he knew that his parent's where going to be killed. Harry raises his hand and almost like he read Draco's mind.

"Apparently Dante's family has been the potter guardian since the first of the potter family. They also where to watch over a different man's offspring in the hopes that eventually the two families would come together like they should have."

Draco nods and is about to question what Hadrian is talking about when he sees the sad look in his eyes and decides that he shouldn't go any further with this train of conversation. It is then that he notices Daphne is rubbing soothing circles on Harry's arm while her other hand is wrapped around his neck, and her head is leaning into the crook of his neck. Draco chooses not to comment instead he asks the next question that had interested him since the end of dinner.

"So what was that whole thing with the oldest weasel he actually looked afraid a few seconds at the end of dinner."

Harry give a vicious smile as the event of dinner go through his mind. Daphne lifts her head from his neck and looks at him with a mix of curiousity and mirth shining in her icy blue eyes,

"Simple really you see at Iter Magorum we start a year earlier then most of the other magical schools of the world, and it's a eight year education. Now I can't actually talk about a lot of what we learn or even where it is located. how ever I can say this, during our education at some point we must find a master that is willing to take us on for an apprenticeship whether that is a teacher or the lucky ones pique the interest of someone else outside of the school professors."

Daphne and Draco both look at him like he has grown a second head. Daphne shakes her head and responds.

"So let me see if I understand this you are saying that to even graduate you need to be apprenticed to someone."

Harry then shrugs then stretches out his back.

"Ya pretty much but there are a few other conditions for example both the headmaster, and the academy board needs to approve of the master, Then a test is needed to be taken by both the apprentice and their master hopeful amongst other things."

Both Hogwarts students nod their heads in understanding then Draco asks.

"Why do you guys go through so much to graduate from school. I mean at Hogwarts all you have to do is go to your classes and pass the given end of year finals. The only reason someone would need to gain an apprenticeship is if they want to get their mastery."

Harry just rolls his eyes at that statement from Draco then considers the best way to respond to it.

"Because that's the difference between the Canadian system and the European system we aren't stuck into the dark ages. we have gone with the times to the point that even though we have the smallest magical population our training and wizards far outclass all others."

Before Draco can retort Harry hold's out a hand in a placating manner and give him a soul piercing stare.

"I know there's tradition and all that. Now don't get me wrong that is important how ever when people like Voldemort stroll in and take advantage of them and the stupidity of it all then it becomes a problem that needs to be changed."

Both Daphne and Draco nod in agreement of that and Harry then continues with his speech and his point.

"People like Voldemort will eventually start to get a big head and think they are unbeatable. Now the problem with that is right now the three kings think of Voldemort as an annoyance at best, but if any of them dub him an actual threat all of magical England will be bathed in a sea of blood and fire."

During the whole of Harry's speech both Daphne and Draco begin to pale and gain a horrified expression on their features. While Daphne tightens her hold onto the love of her life in search of comfort and he begins to whispers reassurance softly into her ear. Draco gives an uncontrolled shudder while subconsciously tightening his hand into a fist until its a ghostly white at the thought of his home being destroyed."

After his reassurance that nothing would ever happen to her or her sister, Daphne had begun to lessen her grip on him. Harry then starts to talk again.

"As I was saying before we got onto this dark and morbid topic, back in my second year we had ended up having a substitute professor halfway in because she had gone onto maternity leave. He was in the nicest way a sadistic bastard but we had learned a great deal from him. and then at the end of the year the man takes me to the headmasters office and says 'I'm taking this one as my apprentice so suck it old man.' Next thing I know We are in the middle of nowhere during a bloody blizzard. He then tells me I have to survive for the next 2 weeks and he disappears into thin air."

Draco and Daphne both look extremely horrified at the thought of this. Then Daphne's eye harden and blaze with righteous fury that some crazy bastard would tell a almost 13 year old child to survive in a blizzard for two week. Especially when that child is her man oh yes he would live to regret it she would make damn sure of that.

"Anyways I end up surviving mainly thanks to my animagus form which I had later realized that was probably the assholes main goal in the first place."

Draco then interrupts Harry with a question about that.

"Wait I thought you needed a potion that would help reveal your animagus form then you would slowly work on the transformation part."

Harry then shrugs and then gives a small shivers.

"Well ya that's one way but not the fastest I guess granted I never want to go the quick route again its not a lot of fun going to sleep human and waking up as an animal." Under his breath Harry whispers "stupid polar bear almost ate me that kinda sucked."

Daphne's head snaps to look at him in the eyes with a hard look Harry then instantly bury his whole face into her neck in an attempt to distract her so he doesn't get yelled at for that. Daphne harshly whispers in his ear that they will be talking about life threatening ideas later Harry just nods in resignation.

"Anyways I know the guy actually does care about me after all he wont make me do anything that will actually kill me..well unless he thinks it will help push me to the next level. Truthfully I think that's half the reason, the other half he probably gets some kinda sick amusement out of watching me run for my life and fight for my survival."

The other two occupants of the room stare wide eyed at him as Harry closes his eyes and smiles at some of the better memories. Daphne then asks the question that has been burning on her tongue since she heard that Harry had become someones apprentice.

"What's his name."

Harry then opens his eyes the smile never leaves his lips.

"Beast slayer- Leviathan; Luciferel of the celestial mercenaries."

Back with the rest of the occupants of the house in the dining hall there is a stunned silence as the three children leave to everyone but Remus and Sirius who are softly snickering behind their hands. Finally after several minutes the silence is broken by a screech from Mrs. Weasley.

"Bill Weasley what did you think you where doing pushing my baby into a kneeling position and begging to that...menace for forgiveness."

Bill looks at his mother with a hard stare and responds through clenched teeth and no emotion at all in his voice.

"Saving my foolish little brothers life, Because he would of been torn apart and tossed into the wind before the concept that he was going to die would have hit him."

The whole room remains speechless at that realization while Sirius looks on in boredom and asks.

"I'm curious curse breaker how you know Hadrian's title or what he is capable of doing."

Molly looks about to burst once again with a rant about how leviathans don't exist, that they are bed time stories for naughty children and how Harry is a defender of the light and would never hurt her son cause they are to be the best of friends once he dumps that Slytherin whore. but Bill Answers Sirius's question before she can start.

"As you said I'm a curse breaker for Gringots and I have met both the hunter and the slayer. Hell I even witnessed a spar between the two before I returned to England."

Bill's eyes gain a look of fear and admiration to them both as he Tell's the room what he witnessed.

*Flashback*

Bill Weasley oldest son of Molly and Aurthur Weasley had just returned to a Gringots branch on the coast of Florida to report about the rumors he heard about a Mayan temple that is said to be some how located in the Persian Gulf. However upon his arrival and on his way to the artifact manager's office he notices that a fair amount of the goblins not working the tills heading in the same direction and a moderately fast pace. Quickly deciding to follow them out of curiosity he walks beside one of them while respectfully asking.

"Master goblin why is almost all the gringots employees heading in this direction? Has the bank manager of this location requested a full meeting?"

The goblin looks up at Bill with out breaking his quick stride and sneers up at him and answers.

"No we have not foolish wizard. A duel is about to happen between beast hunter and beast slayer- Leviathan an event that even lord Ragnok is coming to watch."

Bill's eyes widen for a second at that news after all the goblin king almost never leaves the underbelly of the goblin capital. He then thanks the goblin for the information and quickens his pace a single thought running through his head.

'What ever is about to happens is going to be big the goblin's rarely get excited over a duel between wizards even if they earn the title beast hunter or slayer. Maybe I can convince them to help for when Voldemort returns we need all the help we can get.'

The end of his thought saddens him for a second before his eyes burn with an incredible determination.

'I wont let that psychotic bastard put my home and family into danger.'

Bill enters into the arena in the bellows of gringots he sits in the audience stand. Both fighters are already standing in the middle of the area looking at each other neither moving a muscle.

The taller of the two wearing a long black coat with blood red shoulder length spiky hair, and a black jesters mask covering the right side of his face. While the shorter one wearing smooth and slick jacket with a strange motif that he cant make out from where he is sitting. The coat looks oddly like dragon hide but he has never heard of or seen a dragon with such an endless black hide before.

Bill makes a mental note to talk to his younger brother charlie about any such dragons. When he sees a goblin that is slightly bigger then all others stand from a golden throne.

"Greeting fellow goblins and employees of Gringots as I'm sure you all know I am Ragnok king of the goblins and it is with great pleasure that I introduce these two amazing and noble fighters. on the right we have the beast slayer- leviathan; Luciferel leader of the celestial mercenary's and on the left his talented apprentice beast hunter- leviathan; Hadrian Lefay."

*end flashback*

"What!?"

Shouted almost everyone in the dinning hall besides Sirius, Remus and Nymphadora. The later two talking in hushed whispers having already known and gotten bored of this story much to Sirius and Narcissa's amusement. Sirius on the other hand had started to doodle on a conjured scrap of paper his left hand holding up his head the bored look still never leaving his features.

Charlie remains quiet and looks thoughtful on the type of dragon the hide of Hadrians coat must have come from.

Bill gains a look of annoyance at being interrupted so loudly.

"Yes apparently that's the boy's name as a beast hunter now let me finish and I will try and explain from what I have gathered."

Molly then points at her oldest son with an accusing tone.

"Why haven't you told professor Dumbledore about something this important are you betraying us."

Sirius then yawns loudly behind his hand getting everyone's attention.

"Iter Magorum some how enchanted all information involving anything about Hadrian and all other sttudents. so that it can never be heard or known by any professors or teachers of any other institute besides them. Also if he was some how able to tell Dumbledore Bill would die and Dumbledore would forget anyways, and now that curse also effects you all as well. now shut up I want to hear about this fight."

Bill slightly pales and thanks every God that he decided against telling Dumbledore what he witnessed and that Dumbledore didn't need to know this information. He then swallows the lump in his throat and returns to his tale.

*flashback*

"Now without further ado let the battle commence!"

Ragnok then sits back into his throne as the deafening cheers of the Gringots employee's. Luciferel smirks at Hadrian.

"Well foolish apprentice show me what you got."

Hadrian's eyes begin to glow with his magic as he gives a mock bow.

"Then let us dance stupid master."

Hadrian then burst into a murder of crows and raven's. While Luciferel raises an eyebrow before moving a step to his right side dodging two bullets from Hadrian's Judgement.

"Interesting your illusions have become even more smooth since the last spar."

He then turns on his left heel and lashes out with his right foot hitting what looks like thin air until Hadrian appears in the air going backwards a few feet away a trickle of blood at his lip.

"However you still can't fool my eyes yet."

The crowd watches as the beast slayer attacks with not a single wasted movement and gets first blood. Before Hadrian hits the ground he catches himself with his right and pushes himself forward to get a little closer to Luciferel. He then drops and goes for a leg sweep but the slayer jumps over him and his leg lashes out like a whip aiming for Hadrian's head. Hadrian sees this in the corner of his eye and out of pure instinct he grabs his leg and throws him away to get some breathing room.

Hadrian then fires off three quick shots at the still air born Luciferel who then bends his body in midair dodging two but the third grazes his left side.

When Luciferel lands on his feet he begins to laugh manically. He then moves his jacket to the side and unsheathe his blade 'Reaper'. A pitch black long sword with no guard at all and the handle is wrapped in blood red bandages the same color like his hair. He then charges with a downward slash that Hadrian is barely able to dodge. This happens in the matter of a split second and as his blade hits the ground it causes a explosion of dust and debris. Luciferel scoffs at this but his eyes become colder almost uncaring as he gets ready for his next attack.

Hadrian slowly gets up from where he had landed when he dodged that attack and yells at his master.

"You crazy bastard you almost killed me and you would of destroyed this entire area had you put any more into that attack!"

Luciferel merely moves his blade to the side as he steps into another battle stance.

"Draw your blade lets see if you can handle the pressure of that borrowed blade of yours. After all if you cant even handle that lesser blade how do you expect to handle 'Babylon's treasure'."

Hadrian closes his eyes and and breaths in deeply, he then begins to draw a silver blade from its sheath and for a few moments all that can be heard is a buzzing sound. Soon after both fighters charge at each other a deadly dance begins as they fight for dominance the sound of metal on metal is heard rings throughout the stadium.

Hadrian dodges a strike from the beast slayer that is his master. Just as Luciferel steps out of the way of Hadrian's strike that hits the ground however unlike Luciferel's attack that caused everything in the proximity of the blade to explode, Hadrian's strike cuts through the ground for ten feet in front of the blade.

Luciferel smile widens even more then grabbing Hadrian by the arm he slams him into the ground. Where he turns into another murder of crows and ravens. Luciferel feels the cold metal of judgement on the back of his skull and hears Hadrian's smug voice.

"I win master."

Luciferel closes his eyes and smirks.

"No you lose stupid apprentice."

He then disperses into shadows shooting all around the arena floor. Hadrian looks all around for him but then looks up after hearing a whistling sound and before he can react Luciferel slams his heel into the top of Hadrian's skull.

*end flashback*

The entire hall is silent but the Blacks and Remus are beaming with pride. Ron the chooses to make his presence known at this time having come back in with Hermione at some point halfway through Bill's tale he sneers.

"So he lost to some wizard none of us have ever heard of how does that mean that he can get away with killing me or anyone. He's an arrogant prat who will come begging for our forgiveness and friendship."

Bill shakes his head at Ron's comment and sighs.

"Foolish little brother he was able to fight an S-class mage on equal footing even if that mage was toying with him and that full use of magic was forbidden."

Hermione then raises her hand and speaks up.

"What do you mean S-class mage, I haven't read anything about that."

Bill looks over to the bushy haired book worm and answers.

"It isn't in any book because the ministry doesn't want any of the civilians to know about it."

Hermione looks appalled that the ministry wouldn't allow this kinda information or any kinda information be published in a book but before she can start in a triad Sirius cuts it off.

"It's not really that important to know the class system unless you become an auror or a mercenary, but for the record the loud moth red head and his sister are both D-class you are D-class on the border of C-class."

Hermione looks rather proud or that while Ron glares at Sirius for that comment but doesn't say anything. Sirius then points at the twins.

"These two are in the middle C-class but for their age group it's pretty good."

The twins are sticking their tongues out at Ron after that and Ron Glares at his brothers but grits out.

"So those slimy snakes are D-class as well."

Sirius just scoffs at this but corrects him.

"No Malfoy has just attained C-class at the end of this semester, and Daphne had reached the B-class at some point in the last 2 weeks."

Sirius voice is full of pride for his unofficial goddaughter in law, the girl that holds his godsons heart in the palm of her hand just as he has hers. But it probably has more to do with the fact that he had a hand in her training back when she and Harry where kids.

Remus just rolls his eyes at his best friend. Before anyone can say anything both Marauders get up and leave while silently telling the twins to follow them. As the twins exit the dinning hall an arm wraps around each of their necks they look to see Sirius while Remus leads them upstairs.

"Well boys as fun as that was let us show you where your new accommodations for your stay in the house of black."

1) Alright so lets get started I replaced the chapter as some of you have noticed and the like however thats cause i wasn't pay attention and hit delete and not the replace chapter thing so on this note a new oc and so we get this out of the way first there are 5 heads of the celestial mercenary's and they each eventually has to take on an apprentice someone who will take that name and that has been their tradition for the last 300 years.

2) Yes eventually all five will be brought in but they all have very small parts cause they are all high S-class and that would probably take from the story

3) Obviously Daphne is going to be a lot stronger then the rest of them because she was trained by both Dante and Sirius until she went to Hogwarts and her father pretty much forbid her from going their again and we will touch more on that at some in the next 2 or 3 chapters.

4) the reason that Ragnok calls Harry, Hadrian is cause that's his full name and is a show of respect to his title as a hunter it's the same about using the last name Le-fay and to hide his identity from everyone that may hear rumors of him.

5)finally lI have an two ideas for Daphne's animagus I was thinking ether a hellhound to go with Harry's kitsune or a snowlepoard let me know what you all think in a pm or a review thank you.

6) Oh and before I forget and post this I got my first real flame a day ago so yay kinda surprised it took this long however unfortunately its was just a guest so it means less than dirt to me and I wont be explaining myself which is a shame cause it was a really stupid flame and looked like he read one paragraph and it doesn't have the golden trio which i guess in his opinion make this a shitty fic Oh well. Also if you see any spelling errors let me know I posted this at like 11:55 and i have had a few winter cocktails so merry Christmas or happy holidays
