End of School Year One
(With Harry and Neville)
It was now the end of the year. Both had finished taking their last test and were in their room, packing. The two were excited to go home. For the first time in Neville's life since he was a baby he was going home to his parents.
"Calm down Nev. You're creating a gust over here." Harry teased.
"Oops. Sorry."
"It's okay. Just letting you know. Nev?"
"Yes Harry?"
"You know your parents will be there no matter how long it takes, right?" He asked.
That made the fairy freeze. Harry had hit the nail on the head. Even with all the time spent with them and the fact they were now at home and not a hospital Neville always worried about that. He was afraid that he was going to lose his parents all over again.
"I know they will be but…" He bit his lip.
"I understand. You should tell Healer Epps."
Healer Epps was a mind healer. She was helping the family since Harry presented the plant. She stayed on when Frank and Alice regained their memories and sanity. She sees Neville once a week to make sure he is coping well.
"I know. I just feel like saying it out loud makes me stupid." Neville admitted.
"Oh Neville." He went over and hugged him. "That doesn't make you stupid. That makes you scared thanks to past trauma."
"Thanks Harry." He hugged him back.
"You're welcome."
The two released each other and finished packing. They had just finished when there was a knock on the door. Harry answered and found that it was Sara, the advisor for that month. She was a Neko like Harry and the apprentice of the Charms teacher. She smiled at them.
"Are you two packed?" She asked.
"We are." They said.
"Great. Professor Gladius is in the common room waiting." She informed them.
"Okay." The two said.
"Oh I'm going to miss you both." She hugged them.
"We'll miss you as well." Harry said.
She released them. "I hope to see you next year."
"So do we." Neville said.
"Bye boys." She kissed their heads and left.
Harry and Neville shrunk their belongings and put them in their pockets. They then went to the common room. They greeted professor Gladius. He smiled at the two and held out the port-key. They soon arrived at the bank. Neville's parents were there. Neville ran and hugged them.
"Goodbye professor Gladius. See you next year."
"Goodbye Mr Potter. Good luck with your summer and I shall see you next year."
The professor left and Harry went over to them. No one stared at Harry since the articles that had been released never revealed Harry being a neko or who his guardian was. The world just knew he was alive and safe.
Once Harry was over with them Alice and Frank hugged him. They then took the children home. Harry hugged Fay, then Lucas, then Severus, then Augusta, then Sirius, and finally hugged Remus. Nick and Alex were still in Hawaii. They will be back in a week with their new son. Neville and Harry couldn't wait to meet their new cousin.
"Oh it's so good to have you home." Fay said.
"So are we." Harry said.
"Come inside and we can eat." She said.
"Okay."
The group moved inside. They sat at the table and began eating. The house elves took their suitcases. Harry was excited because Severus had just finished up the last of his job as the potion professor at Hogwarts. Now he was going property hunting for his new shop. Neville was happy about that too.
After they ate Neville left and Harry went to his room and unpacked. He then started on his summer homework. He wanted to get it done early so that the rest of the summer he could have fun.

"Master, please!" A male begged.
"You failed to get the stone. You failed me!" A whispery voice snapped.
"I'm sorry master but after Dumbledore was arrested McGonagall never told us that she returned the stone." He whimpered.
"That is no excuse!" He yelled.
"I'm sorry master."
"Oh you will be." He said darkly.
"Ah!" The first man yelled out in pain.
The man's screaming died down. All that was left was a pile of dust. A wisp had come from the dust before flying off.
