Time Paradox
Chapter eight: The Real World
Part Two
Harry looked around the courtyard that was full with more than a hundred students. The building that surrounded them was an off white colour, showing its age a little. There was a stage over to one side of the courtyard. It was raised about four feet. A podium stood in the middle of the platform, waiting for the speaker to step up.
David Huke stepped up onto the platform and walked to the podium. He hushed everyone for silence and then started to talk to the gathered crowed. "Welcome to you all to the Auror Training Facility. You training in the Auror profession will take three years to complete. Not all of you will make it to the end of your training; some of you may not make it past the first year. The training is hard and gruelling. Your speed and endurance will be tested to the limit. You will have training in the Muggle way of fighting, as well as the magical way. Your first year will mainly cover your speed and duelling abilities. You will also learn many new curses and hexes, as well as shielding spells. You will also learn Muggle first aid and the magical equivalent. At some point during the year you will be going on a training week. It will test speed, endurance, and your ability to work within a group. You will also have to think on your feet. I am your head of year, so if you have any inquiries or problems, please come and see me. In a little while you will be let lose to have a look around the facility. You will also be able to talk to the other trainee Aurors." He looked around them all and then said, "Dismissed everyone."
Harry went into the building and started walking down the corridors. He occasionally came across classes that were in session. He went into the gym and looked around the large area. It was set up for an obstacle course. He saw, what he thought were second year trainee Aurors. They were all very fast going over and under the obstacles that were in their way.
He had one last look around the room and went back out into the corridor and started to walk around again. He met up with some of the new first years. They quickly said hello and goodbye as they went past him.
A door opened at the far end of the corridor and a young man walked out. He appeared to be a second year Auror. They were walking towards each other. Looking at the face a little more closely, he thought he recognised the face of the young man walking towards him.
Wanting to find out who the young man was he said, "Hello." As they got closer to one another.
"Hello," he replied. "Oh your one of those first years aren't you," he then asked Harry.
"Yes I am, my name's Harry Potter," he replied, holding his hand out in greeting.
"Nice to meet your Harry, I'm Alastor Moody," Alastor greeted. He took Harry's hand and shook it.
"You're going to ask me a few questions aren't you," he asked him, he nodded his head.
Harry said, "Thanks. What's the training like," he then asked.
He smiled and answered, "Hard, gruelling, but well worth it in the end I would say."
"It would be rewarding, because you are helping the public," Harry reasoned. He nodded understanding what he was saying, "What type of combat do you learn?" He questioned wondering what type of Muggle combat they would be learning.
"For that we have Muggle's come in and teach us or any wizard or witch that knows them. I've learned karate, judo. There are other types but I haven't learnt them yet," he told Harry.
"Right," Harry said, nodding his head. "What is the duelling like? The opponents," he then asked him.
"Duelling is different every time, each person has their own technique. So it's always a challenge when you face someone new," he told him.
"Brilliant, I hate it when things get monotonous," Harry said. "What about the week away how was that for you and your group?"
He smiled at Harry and replied, "That was a laugh when we weren't supposed do anything important. It was a really good exercise to do as well."
"Right," Harry said, as he looked at Alastor.
"Sorry Harry, but I have to go; I have a lesson in a few moments. We should meet up again soon and have a chat. It was nice meeting you," he said, as he shook Harry's hand once again.
"Oh, right then. I'll see you soon then bye," he replied in kind and returned the handshake.
Alastor went off down the corridor and turned a corner. Harry continued to look around the training facility trying to learn the way around the building as well. It was soon time for them to all go back home. Harry went back to Hope's Home and told Tom of what the place was like.

Some snippets of the beginning of Harry's Auror training.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
It was about a week after his first day at Auror Training and he was going on the obstacle course for the first time. In his own time he had taken to training with Moody, Tonks and Shaklebolt. They had taken to training him like the Aurors. So the course shouldn't be that hard for him to do. He was one of the last ones to do the course so he watched the others as they had their turn. Most of them were okay, but some of them needed a lot of help to improve.
It was finally Harry's turn at running the obstacle course. He used all that he was taught from the order members. He ducked, rolled and jumped as best as he could over the things in his way. One of the instructors was watching his technique while the other timed him. It was so they could give him a grade at the end.
When he was finished another two had to go after him, so he now had to wait while those two finished the course. The fastest time the course was completed in was one minute and forty-seven seconds. Harry's time was one minute, fifty-eight. His technique was an A grade. His time was an A grade as well. He had done well for a first year.

Duelling was even easier for Harry as he had been practicing with Severus Snape since sixth year. He had also beaten the professor on numerous occasions. He had also mastered Occlumency and Legilimency with some help from Snape. One of the duellers tried to use Legilimency on him, but he was able to throw him off.
He had duelled two instructors and some of the third years. He was quick on his feet and was able to dodge the curses and hexes that flew his way. He was good at throwing his opponents off balance by using curses and hexes. He also used a few pranks, like turning the hair a different colour, to distract them.
He had been graded by his speed, strength of spells and ability with them. His grade was quite high once again. He had been given an A. His overall grade for the first test was an A. He was the top student in the first year.

It had been three months since he had started his Auror training and he was soon to be his bonding with Tom. The orphanage was now full of young witches and wizards. Some of them had started at Hogwarts. In January Tom and Harry were to be bonded, the whole orphanage was to attended, including those at Hogwarts were to come back for the day.
