Chapter seven
The following day, Harry and Charlie bought everything they needed to make the potion. Hermione was right, it didn't take long and it wasn't difficult, but Harry was right, it tasted terrible and he wasn't looking forward to taking that forever even if it was once a week.
Harry and Charlie again destroyed a lot of the furnishings, but were always repairing it when they finished and they never finished for hours. Sometimes they would finish, rest, shower, eat and go again, they just couldn't control themselves.
Charlie and Harry heard someone knocking on the door as they were both panting heavily as they were lying on the floor in the bedroom, because they never made it to the bed, which happens all the time.
'I forgot they were all coming,' Harry grabbed his robe and hurried down the stairs, 'Sorry, I forgot, come in.'
Ron, Hermione, Cho, Padma, Parvati, Michael, Terry, Ernie, Seamus, Dean, Hannah, Susan and Kingsley stepped into the house.
'Blimey, what happened Harry?' Seamus asked as everyone saw the damaged.
'We'll explain later, let me get dressed, then I'll fix everything.'
'We'll do it again Harry, but you have to stop wrecking everything,' Hermione said in a resigned voice.
'We can't help it Hermione, it just happens, the bed's broken twice, when we make it to the bed that is. Be right back,' Harry hurried away and up to his room where Charlie had just finished dressing, 'Hermione and Ron are fixing everything again.'
'I'll go give them a hand while you dress,' Charlie kissed Harry then hurried down the stairs, 'Sorry, I was going to help Hermione.'
'We got it Charlie,' Ron shook his head, 'Why don't you get everyone a drink since we did all the work.'
'Be right back,' Charlie hurried into the kitchen and piled a tray with juice and floated into the living room where everyone was finally sitting down, 'Help yourselves,' Charlie took a large bottle of juice and drank the whole thing.
'Thirsty, are you Charlie?' Kingsley chuckled.
'Oh yeah, we've been at it for over five hours, we just can't stop.'
'We don't need to know Charlie, even if I did read about it.' Hermione shook her head. 'But is Harry taking the potion?'
'Yep, he said it tastes disgusting.'
'It does taste disgusting, but I've got no choice but to drink it, at least for now,' Harry hurried over and grabbed another large juice and also drank the whole thing.
'Another one that's thirsty. Alright, let's get this meeting underway and you were right about Neville and Ginny.'
'Well we can't have Ginny near them anyway Kingsley, she'd end up dead if she kept going. Harry had to seal the house and block the floo.'
'What's wrong with Ginny?' Dean asked.
'Nothing, except she won't accept Harry and Charlie are together.'
'But you were dating Cho, then Ginny, how are you gay?'
'It's not like that, I suppose we should explain.'
'Might be easier to show them then explain,' Kingsley shrugged.
'Okay,' Harry and Charlie moved back, stood behind the sofa, pulled their clothes off to amused or shocked looks from everyone, they were wondering why Harry and Charlie were stripping out of their clothes so they were completely naked. Then instantly changed into the Morphixen animals, then started to nuzzle each other again before changing back, then got dressed again.
'You're animagi, what's that got to do with Ginny and I would have thought Charlie would be a dragon,' Seamus said.
'There not animagi, they're Morphixen, well Harry is and turned Charlie into one. They don't just change into an animal, they become that animal in every way, if you took blood from Harry while he was a dragon it would be dragon blood not human blood, Harry can also breathe fire and fly. Any animagi is never a magical creature, it's just the way it is, we'll be dogs, cats, stags, horses, things like that. Harry didn't know he was a Morphixen, but the moment he saw Charlie, he changed, asked Charlie if he would receive him, he did, so Charlie changed. Now they are life-mates, soulmates, partner's in every way. They will protect each other using their forms. Ginny was going to curse Charlie for being with Harry, Harry and Charlie changed and were going to attack, but Arthur dragged Ginny back upstairs. It's all part of the transformation. They won't hurt anyone as long as they don't feel threatened or the other is threatened,' Ron explained.
'We can sense things from people as well, like Seamus, you're having sex with Padma,' Charlie said.
'You never told me and we tell each other everything,' Parvati said looking around in surprise.
'Hang on, how did you know that and it was early this morning.'
'Our senses are very attuned to what's around us, like we can tell there is a gay bloke here,' Harry said.
'Are you going to tell us who that is Harry?' Ron asked.
'No, he might not want anyone to know, but let's forget that and get on with the meeting,' Charlie sat down and pulled Harry onto his lap.
'Are you sure you should sit like that, you two can't control yourselves?' Ron asked.
'When surrounded in people Ron, they need to protect each other. It's a safety mechanism that is built into the Morphixen. When they don't feel there is danger, even if it's not straight away, but they get to sense everyone, then they can separate.'
'So if I was to pull my wand and aimed it at one of them, they would change and attack?' Michael asked.
'Yes, but you wouldn't get a chance to pull your wand, we sense things before it happens,' Harry explained.
'Okay, now that's explained well get onto the reason why I asked you all here. As you all know, I'm now minister, but I'm the last auror there is, the others all died either during the battle or before. We need aurors and I spoke to Harry about all of you from the DA. If any of you want to be an auror, I'll take you through your early training, enough to get you started. But when I have time, I will keep training you. I will be partially in charge, but as minister, I do get quite busy, so Harry will be the actual head auror even if he will be training as well.'
'Did you choose Harry because he killed him Minister?' Michael asked.
'No, I chose Harry for two reasons, he did teach the DA, but since he has become a Morphixen, he is more powerful than I am, probably than all of us together. He's ability to sense danger will help as well.'
'Okay, well that makes sense, and he has got more experience than us. I don't mind working under Harry, he was great in the DA,' Michael said, but go nods from almost everyone else and Kingsley realised he had aurors. Now he had to train them.
Over the next few weeks, Harry and Charlie destroyed everything in the house a lot more times and some items just stopped being able to be repaired, so they realised they were going to need to keep replacing things until they could control themselves. But one thing they did start doing was place a lot of protective charms around pictures and ornaments that Harry didn't want destroyed, things he had retrieved from his parent's home.
Charlie was still helping either Hogwarts, Diagon Alley and of course the ministry, which he spent more time there since Harry was there all day learning to become an auror. Charlie's parents, Bill, Fleur, Percy, his new girlfriend, Audrey, George and Angelina, along with Hermione and Ron had visited Harry and Charlie at their house so that Ginny didn't make them angry because she was furious and more at Charlie than at Harry.
Kingsley was in the auror training room, taking the trainees through their spells. They might know a lot, but compared to aurors, they were still not very knowledgeable as aurors used much stronger and more powerful spells than what was taught at Hogwarts. Harry was also learning how to become head of a department and what it entailed. So in between his training, Kingsley sometimes spent evenings with Harry at his house to take him through what was allowed as head and what was not.
Charlie stepped into the training room to see Harry, he instantly changed thinking his mate was in danger. Harry changed and went over to him with soothing growls until they were nuzzling again. Finally they changed back with everyone watching them, and again both Harry and Charlie were naked, so Ron quickly draped his robes over them while he went into the office to grab two sets of Harry's spare robes. Harry kept spare robes in case his dragon was needed, he just didn't expect to need them when he was only training.
