Harry Potter and the Power Within
Chapter 10
As Dumbledore flashed in the site that he took in was very dire for Harry and Ginny. Ron had Harry by the collar of the shirt while the blanket Hermione had covered lay on the floor with Ginny on the ground convulsing.
"Ronald Weasley, you let go of Harry this instant" Dumbledore bellowed.
Ron quickly let go of Harry then Dumbledore proceeded to levitate Harry and Ginny back on to the sofa where they instantly stopped convulsing and cuddled into one another.
"But Professor, Harry was sleeping with my sister again." Ron said while his ears where a nice rosy red.
Before Dumbledore could try to explain the situation Ginny laid into him after she had recovered "Ron we have already been over this you stupid fucking prat all we were doing was sleeping, unlike what we caught you doing with Hermione earlier in the summer, which was way fucking worse!" As she was saying this, the magical energy in the room seemed to rapidly become charged and she had started to glow and the flickers of flame started to appear. Dumbledore noticed this immediately and grabbed Ron by his arm and took him up to the boys' dormitories. After warding the room with silencing spells and privacy spells did he tell Ron the exact same thing he told Hermione.

Meanwhile downstairs in the common room Harry had also noticed the flames around Ginny and quickly pulled her into a hug softly kissing her temple and whispering sweet things into her ear in an attempt to calm her down.
Once she had calmed down she asked, "Why can't Ron just accept that we are back together and that I'm not a little kid anymore?"
"I don't know Gin, maybe seeming you go down tonight also had some effect on Ron that kicked his over-protectiveness into overdrive tonight." Harry said while smiling softly at her.
"Maybe your right Harry, let's just hope it gets better before I do something to him we both will regret," said Ginny softly.
He couldn't agree more with her on that. After a little bit they both decided that they needed to get to their respective beds as it would not bode well with Ginny's brothers if they also found them sleeping on the sofa. Everything was going fine until they both let go of each other's hands. As soon as this happened they both felt an immense pain similar to that of being bit by a bolt of lightning. As soon as they grabbed hands again the pain seemed to stop instantly. Well that was weird, both Harry and Ginny thought soon realizing that they also heard each other in their heads. At this they both promptly fainted.

Upstairs Ron wasn't much better off than Harry and Ginny. He could hardly believe it, his own baby sister and best mate where in a soul bond which in of itself was supposed to be a myth.
"Professor there has to be some mistake, Harry and Ginny can't be in a soul bond it's just a fairy tale," Ron screeched completely floored at the idea.
Dumbledore pinched the bridge of his nose to quell a coming headache from all the yelling Ron had done plus the calling of the arch mages as he answered the poor boy, "Alas that is not true Mr. Weasley, Soul bonds are not a myth or fairy tale they are just simply very very rare."
Ron seemed to stutter and attempt to find some kind of argument with the headmaster but couldn't and simply turned and went to his bed once more. Dumbledore shook his head and took down the wards he had placed. That was not how he had wanted to tell the Weasley boy at all.
Just as he was about to leave Dumbledore turned back around and said, "Mr. Weasley I would appreciate if you didn't mention this information to anyone else for now."
Ron simply nodded and pulled back the curtains on his four poster bed and laid down.

As Dumbledore was walking out of the common room he noticed both Harry and Ginny curled up on the sofa again and smiled as he used his wand to cover them with the blanket Hermione had conjured. Little did he know that once he reached the realm of the arch mages that his headache would only get worse.

Harry and Ginny sat before the arch mages completely freaked out. Not only could they not let go of one another but they also could now hear each other inside their heads. The mages waited for Dumbledore to appear before Merlin spoke
"Good now that everyone is here we can begin to maybe explain what exactly happened to young Harry and Ginny."
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement and turned to Professor Dumbledore.
Dumbledore spoke softly, "The children suddenly collapsed because they had been separated in their sleep after their newly formed soul bond had started."
Helga, Rowena, Godrick, and Salazar all gasped at the news.
"Excuse me Professor but what exactly is a soul bond and why would we collapse," asked Harry completely confused.
"A soul bond is formed when two people who have undying love for one another attempt to save the other when in a life threating situation," answered Helga before Dumbledore could.
"That still don't explain why we collapsed when Ron separated us," said Ginny.
"That is because that is the first stage of the bonding process to help the couple become acquainted with each other much better so when the time comes to complete the bond they won't feel completely awkward with one another," said Rowena smiling at the two teens.
"There was pain we felt also when we let go is that part of the first stage as well and also is hearing each other in our heads too," asked Harry.
"Yes and yes," said Rowena.
"How do we complete the bond?" asked Ginny curiously.
"By giving yourselves completely to one another," said Rowena
Both teens blushed furiously at the idea of it as Godrick snickered at them. Both teens glared at him and Rowena stomped on his foot. Before anyone could get into a fight Merlin all suggested that they cut tonight's meeting short as it had been a long tiring day for the two teens. They all agreed and soon Harry and Ginny left the Arch Mages.

Well there you have it folks Harry and Ginny find out the truth. Now next time maybe we will find out how the Weasleys will react. Also I know I have not updated in a really really long time but life has gotten in the way I do hope to continue to be able to write my chapters but I won't make any promises on when updates will be. Till next time
