Chapter Ten
ONE MONTH LATER
Harry's POV:
"Grandpa Albus can't you keep school closed a little longer?" Damion asked making Albus, Fenrir and myself laugh.
"I'm sorry little one, but if I don't start school on time not only would half the pack be out of a job, but I'd have to deal with a lot of angry parents. School still has to start tomorrow." He said, smiling at Damion who was currently sitting on his desk.
"Ugh! That's not fair though! I've been having to much fun with the pack and I've enjoyed beating Eric in Quidditch everyday." he said smirking a little. I laughed and walked over and picked Damion up and sat him on the ground.
"Just wait until summer then you'll spend two whole months with the pack OK." I told him, he nodded slowly and hugged me. I smiled down at him and picked him up to hug him tightly. I pulled back a little and smiled at him and looked over at Albus who was giving me his 'We must talk now and Damion must leave' look. I nodded slightly in understand and placed Damion on the floor and knelt so I was eye level with him.
"Why don't you go and see what the others are doing. You might be able to convince Uncle Ron and some of the others to play Quidditch if you hurry." I said and he looked at me confused.
"Won't you and dad be coming too and playing with us?" He asked and I shook my head and kept smiling.
"No honey we can't play right now. Grandpa needs to talk to us about something real quick, but we promise to come and join as soon as we're able." I told him and he looked at Fen who nodded his promise. he looked back at me and hugged me again making me smile. He'd become very clingy since my return, something I have no complaints over.
I pulled back and kissed his forehead and stood up as he ran to Fen who picked him up and hugged him and kissed his forehead as well before sitting him down and we all watched as Dame ran out of the office and laughed when we heard him calling for Eric and claiming to want to kick his butt again in Quidditch, but this time in teams.
Once we were calm again I turned to Albus. Fen walked up and wrapped an arm around my waist protectively. I smiled up at him, he too had become clingy and even more protective of me since my return. Rarely did I go anywhere now without Fenrir and Damion. Well, Damion was a bit more OK with not being around me as long as he was either in the same room as me or he knew where I was at all times. Fenrir on the other hand, was always two feet by me. Again, I'm not complaining. I've missed my boys to much to complain.
"Now before we begin, we have to wait for Severus to arrive," I interrupted him with an annoyed groan, "And when he does I'll begin explaining why I wanted this last minute meeting." he said and Fen and I nodded. Not five minutes later the door opened to reveal an obviously annoyed Snape. He glared at me and I glared right back at him. I've never liked the man, but ever since finding out how he's been treating my son, I've wanted nothing more than to claw his throat out. Only Albus said no, so I can't kill him sadly.
But I can make his life even more miserable.
"Hello there greasy git. Have a nice morning?" I asked with a mock innocent smile on. Fenrir was trying very hard not to laugh and Albus was smiling while Snape looked like he was trying to learn how to kill with looks.
"If you must know Mr. Potter-"
"Potter-Greyback." I interrupted and he glared daggers at me which I just shrugged off and smiled when I heard Fenrir purr a little in happiness and pulled me closer to him.
"-the Dark Lord did call me in this morning. I just got back from the meeting actually." he said and Albus looked at him curious.
"Has he told you anything that he might be planning? He's been quiet for way to long and, though I like the thought that innocent people aren't dying, it's unnerving. He's never been quiet this long before." Albus said with worry crystal clear on his face.
"All he's told me was that he's planning on moving soon and it has something to do with Hogsmeade. I think he's planning for a big raid during a Hogsmeade weekend." Snape said and we all fell silent at that.
I felt Fenrir stiffen a little and looked up at him confused, but he was staring at Albus. "You don't think Voldemort knows Harry's back do you?" he asked sending us all into a tense silence. "I don't think he does. I've not had a vision at all since my parents pulled me from the veil, so I think we still still have the element of surprise there." I said and Albus nodded.
"That's true my dear boy. If you've not had visions then it's probably a safe bet that he doesn't know about you. However, he can turn the connection on and off whenever he wants and he knows you've yet to master Occulmency, so he might very well be purposefully not sending you missions in order to surprise you. Especially if he's planning a raid to Hogsmeade, he knows you won't be able to sit by and not help. He might be trying to catch us by surprise." Albus said and Fenrir growled and pulled me closer to him.
"What are we going to do about this Albus? The next Hogsmeade weekend is two weeks away. I will not allow my mate and son, or any of the pack, to be placed in danger." Fenrir said still growling. Worried that he'd let his wolf out I pulled him to the nearest chair and sat him down and sat on his lap and snuggled as close as I could to him to try and distract him. It worked, he wrapped his arms around me and held me as close as he could and quit growling.
I looked back up at Albus and asked Fen's question again. "Fen's right Albus, what are we going to do?" he just looked at his desk with his hands folded in front of him in thought. A few minutes later he looked up and his eyes were twinkling brightly, 'Well that's never a good sign.' I thought to myself and turned my attention back to Albus.
"We'll move Hogsmeade weekend up to this weekend. That way no ones in danger, though we'll still have some of the pack down there on guard just in case a raid happens. The following weekend when they planned for the raid we'll have the entire pack down there and ready to fight, that way WE have the element of surprise on them instead of the other way around. What do you think of the plan alphas?" Albus asked looking at us and smiling.
Fenrir and I looked at each other for a moment before we nodded at each other and looked back at Albus. "That sounds like a good plan. That way none of the pack is in to much danger and we can not only take them by surprise, but hopefully over power them and causing a major loss to the enemy. Harry and I both agree to the plan." Fen said and I smiled at him.
'Damn he's sexy when he goes into Alpha mode.' I thought and giggled a little making Fenrir look at me weird. I just smiled at him and brushed it off and turned back to the meeting. "Fen and I will go with Dame next weekend to Hogsmeade. I don't feel safe not being there myself to protect him and Fen needs to be there because we fight well together and he'll want to protect our child too." I told him and Albus looked at me. But before he could answer Snape made his presence re-known.
"You idiotic brat! You can't go to Hogsmeade until after the raid! The Dark Lord cannot find out you're alive. If he does not only will you be putting yourself in danger, but that annoying brat of yours as well! Plus I don't think you want that scar on your stomach to have a matching one or to be reopened do you?!" Snape all but screamed.
I was able to keep Fen calm when Snape insulted me, but then the git made the mistake in calling Damion an annoying brat. Before anyone could do anything I was out of Fen's lap and had Snape pinned to the wall and was growling in his face. "You can say whatever you want about me, I've dealt with your shit for four years now. But if you ever say anything about my son in front of me again, not even Merlin himself will be able to stop me from ripping your throat out." I said knowing full well that I was part wolf at the point.
Snape had, if at all possible, gone even paler than normal. He had apparently lost his voice so nodded his head quickly to show he understood. I let him go and he fell to the floor. I walked back over to Fenrir and sat back on his lap in order to help myself calm down and watched as Snape got up and glared at me. Though it wasn't a full glare since he was still shaken up a bit.
I turned back to Albus who had sat and watched the whole thing with an amused look and his eyes twinkling. "It doesn't matter if I do or don't go to Hogsmeade before the raid. Voldemort will figure out I'm alive eventually, and when he does, he will learn I'm a Seer through our link and he'll be after Damion and myself. My going to Hogsmeade won't change what's going to happen eventually. Plus I want to go with my son and mate." I said sternly and Albus smiled and nodded at me.
"You're right my boy, Voldemort will eventually find out you're alive. You going to Hogsmeade won't change that. It might also be good to have to wolves that can change at will in the fight in case they do attack next weekend. If you choose to go I will not stop you." he said and I smiled my thanks to him.
"But what about Harry and Damion being Seers? Don't we want to keep that a secret for as long as possible?" Fen asked and I snapped my head to him fast with wide eyes.
"Dame's a Seer?! Why didn't you tell me?! Has he gotten training in time? Do they hurt him? Has he had a vision in awhile?" I asked not giving anyone time to answer. Fen pulled me into a kiss to quiet me and pulled back and answered my questions.
"Yes Dame is a Seer, more powerful than you. He can see both into the past and future, though it appears he can only see the past of those he loves and can see the future no matter what. We didn't tell you because we thought it best to wait until everyone was settled and used to you being back. Yes he's gotten training in time, Albus taught him every night before school started. I know he's not one himself but he's had plenty of friends that were Seers and he learned enough from them to be able to train Damion. He even brought in a friend to train him for a bit. No, they don't hurt him since he got the training in time. And as far as I know he's not had one, but he's not told me if he has. I do know they're still in the dream stage so he's not woken up screaming so I'm assuming that means no, he's not had one." Fenrir finished.
I just stared at him wide eyed. 'I gave my son the power to see? Not only that but he can also see into our pasts? Wait... Does that mean...' I thought and looked at Fenrir with fear in my eyes. "Fen Love, please tell me my son didn't see my death, or anything to do with that day?" I asked him praying that he hadn't. When Fenrir looked at me sadly and nodded his head saying he had, I felt my heart shatter to pieces. 'It's bad enough I had to make Damion grow up without his mother, but to actually give him the power to see and that it's more powerful than mine and he actually saw his mom die, it must've been so hard for him.' I thought and jumped a little when I felt Fen wipe a tear from my face.
I looked up at him and saw him smiling, "Don't blame yourself. It's not like you knew he'd get the power from you let alone know it would be more powerful than yours. Plus it's not like he's only seen the bad stuff. He's seen the way you used to act with Ron and Hermione and all the trouble you caused in this school, he also knows how many points you've lost your house." he said and I laughed and smiled at him.
"At least his won't hurt him like mine do. He's not seen how Voldemort returned has he?" I asked and Fen shrugged.
"If he has he's not told me about it. But if he's not asked you about it then I think it's safe to say that he's not seen it." he said and I let out a sigh of relief.
"You know you have to tell him at some point right?" he asked and I nodded before changing the subject back to the meeting.
"So we all agree and like the plan?" I asked and they all nodded accepting my subject change.
"Yes, I think it'll work. Now, why don't you two go join your son and play Quidditch. I have to talk to Severus about some things." Albus said and Fen and I nodded and stood up and left to go join our son and the pack.
THE NEXT MORNING
Damion's POV:
I woke up and looked over at my parents bed to see that they were still asleep. I smiled remembering the day that two new beds appeared in the seventh year boys dorm. That was the day Eric and I moved into that dorm and mom and dad had said that they were going to sleep in mom's old bed but that I'd be beside them and Uncle Ron on the other side of mom's bed. Eric's bed was between mine and Uncle Neville's.
I watched my parents sleep for a moment before deciding to go for a run before the other students arrived. Getting up and taking a shower real quick and leaving a note on mom's side of the bed to let them know where I went I quietly left the room and ran all the way outside. When I got there, I turned into my wolf and started to run towards the forest. Knowing I'd be safe there with Uncle Alex, Aunt Crystal and the others to watch me I made sure to be in howling range of the packs new field in case I need help.
I ran for about an half hour before I heard rustling just ahead of me. I stopped and sniffed the air smelling a wolf that I didn't recognize. The part of me telling me to run to the pack was drowned out by the part of me telling me to go and investigate the newcomer. Walking slowly as to not make to much noise, I walked until I noticed a little clearing that wouldn't even fit twenty of our pack members in it. Looking around I didn't see anyone so I turned to leave only to be stopped when I heard laughing.
"My, my, haven't you grown. The last time I saw you was when the Dark Lord was holding you and you were screaming for your pathetic mother." the voice sneered when it mentioned mom. I slowly turned around to see a dark haired man smiling at me crazy like. That smile put me on my guard and I turned into my human form to better talk to him but was prepared to turn back at any second.
"Mom, dad, there's a creepy guy in the forest and he's giving me the creeps. Please come quickly." I said through our link, knowing they'd hear it even if they were still asleep. "Who are you, what do you want?" I asked backing up when he laughed and stepped closer to me.
"What I want is your father." he said and my eyes widened as I put the pieces together.
"You're Dawn aren't you?" I asked and his laugh was all the answer I needed. I was getting even more scared. My parents had warned me about him and to stay away from him if I ever see him and here he was, laughing evilly in front of me. "Hurry, it's Dawn!" I yelled and heard both my parents growl through the link.
I tried to back up some so I could turn back into my wolf and run since he couldn't turn at will. But before I could turn around he had picked me up by my waist and held me tightly. "Let me go!" I yelled and kicked and bit and punched any part of him I could to try and get him to release me.
"I don't think so little one, you'll be the perfect bait for your father." he laughed. As if being summoned, dad, in his wolf form, came barging into the clearing and knocked Dawn to the ground, making him release me. I rolled a few feet from them and turned to watch as they began to fight. Just then mom cam running into the clearing and ran over to me and sniffed me everywhere to see if I was hurt. Happy to not see any wounds, he turned into his human form and pulled me into his arms.
Not realizing how scared I was I until I was in mom's arms I began to shake more and I clung to the front of mom's shirt with both hands as if my life depended on it. I heard a gasp the an angry growl from where dad and Dawn were and looked over to see Dawn staring at mom with steam coming out of his ears. "You're supposed to be dead! I was there when Malfoy stabbed you in your gut, there's no way you could've survived that!" Dawn yelled and dad growled, realizing that Dawn was the traitor of the pack.
I, however, looked at mom in shock. "Draco Malfoy's dad's the one that killed you?" I whispered and mom looked at me and nodded before standing up and putting me down and standing in front of me. I grabbed the back of his shirt and held on tightly and peeked from behind him so I could see what was happening.
"You guys really need to make sure the people you kill stay dead. I was brought back at the beginning of summer." mom said while growling at Dawn. Dawn growled and started towards mom with murder in his eyes making me pull mom closer to me and dad pounced on him and pinned him to the ground. Dawn somehow found the strength to push dad off of him and got up and began to make a run for it. Before he left though, he stopped and looked back at mom and smiled evilly at him.
"I may not have been able to finish you off now, but I can promise you that link of yours is about to be awakened again." he said and left and mom stiffened at his words. I looked up at him confused but he just picked me up and held me close. Dad came over and wrapped up in a hug, We sat there for a few minutes before we all got up and walked back to the school, me still in mom's arms.
"What did Dawn mean Mom? What link is about to awaken?" I asked but he just kept looking forward.
"Nothing that we need to worry about now sweetheart." he said and I looked at dad, who was looking at mom with a worried look.
As we got closer to the school I couldn't stop thinking that something big was about to happen.
