Birth of souls

This idea struck me, and would not leave me a few days ago, while i was in the middle of updating "heart of a dragon". Therefore, i decided to write it.

Please let me know what you think of it in the reviews

Chapter 01

One day, after yet ANOTHER beating by his monster of an uncle, with his fat cousin and horse aunt either cheered his uncle on, or just sat there, not caring, harry felt a VERY powerful desire to retreat into his mindscape. However, harry believed it to be his imagination, but we'll get to the difference later. Anyway, as harry laid there, in the cupboard where he grew up, harry decided to retreat somewhere only he could access: his mindscape/imagination. In his mindscape, harry saw a cave. Deciding quickly, so as none of his family could get their hands on him, harry ran inside.

Once inside the cave, harry felt more at home than he EVER did with his relatives, despite it being kinda hard to see, with it being so dark. To be fair, nearly ANYWHERE is FAR better than living with those animals in human skin. And so, harry decided to explore his home away from prison.

As he was exploring, harry came across MANY things: piles of gold coins, small mountains of jewels, enchanted weapons and armor (not that he KNEW that they were enchanted. Harry just thought that they looked cool), etc. However, harry came across two things he did NOT expect in his new cave: two creatures.

To be specific, the two creatures were a small dragon and a REALLY big rabbit, think about the rabbits that pull the sled of radagast the brown, and you'll have the right size of the rabbit. The odd thing about the dragon and rabbit, aside from the fact that they were the same size despite being different species, was the fact that they were more akin to dolls. Harry, despite being a child, knew that the two creatures were in a deep sleep (surprisingly accurate, wouldn't you say?) and decided to do what he could to get them outside. He kinda figured that the fresh air would help them wake up. So, he grabbed the rabbit first, then the dragon, and proceeded to do what he could to carry them outside.

It took a LONG time (and a LOT of breaks, because he was worn out, from time to time. Hey that's a LOT of weight for a CHILD to carry, be fair, readers), but he FINALLY got them set them down as gently as he could (not easy, given his exhaustion) and began to go get more stuff to bring outside. However, he did not make more than a few steps before he felt weak and passed out.

When harry woke up, it was morning. Despite being full of fear for the day to come, he was hopeful and VERY determined to go back to that cave tonight.

And so, harry would retreat into his mindscape every night, clearing out the cave. He found some items that he would need a LOT of help to even MOVE, such as the shelf containing a MASSIVE amount of scrolls. As the days went by, the dragon and rabbit started to gain awareness.

Harry, seeing their eyes open a bit after so many days shut made him a bit happy. So, he tried speaking with them. However, they just sat there, having no reactions whatsoever. Harry figured that they must be BARELY awake.

And so, harry went back to clearing the cave. Harry found a chest full of gold and gems, which he tried to move to no avail. So, he went to carry the lighter stuff out of the cave.

This continued for a few months when, one night when harry returned to his mindscape, the dragon and rabbit JUMPED him to give him affection, and as thanks for getting them out of that cave. That was when harry attempted to speak with them, "can you speak to me?" harry asked hopefully. The mouths of the dragon and rabbit moved, but no sound came out. "I'm sorry, but i can't hear you," harry sadly said. The dragon and rabbit were sad at that, but they understood that it was FAR too soon for him to hear them.

"Wanna help get the stuff out of the cave?" harry awkwardly asked them. The dragon and rabbit perked up and enthusiastically agreed. The three of them got to work.

With their help, harry was FINALLY able to move the shelf of scrolls as well as the chest that he found a while ago. Shortly after the heaviest items were taken out of the cave, the three of them found a MASSIVE pearl that was glowing with an inner light, bound by chains. Upon seeing the pearl, the dragon and rabbit IMMEDIATELY started to try carrying the pearl. Seeing this, harry asked "um~, should i help with that?" the dragon and rabbit EAGERLY nodded their heads. And so, with harry's help, the pearl's chains were removed and the pearl was carried (the pearl was REALLY heavy, even without the chains). It took a few hours of slow going, but the three of them managed to put the pearl on an altar outside the cave.

After the pearl was on the altar, the three of them collapsed in exhaustion. The dragon and rabbit moved as best as they could to harry, and cuddled with him as thanks for the help with the pearl. "Glad i could help," harry said, accepting the dragon and rabbit cuddling up to him, before he passed out from exhaustion.

The next day, after harry returned, he tried to have a conversation with the dragon and rabbit. "Hi, there. How are you?" To his surprise, he could actually hear them respond. "We're fine, right now," they responded.

"I can hear you," harry whispered in awe. The dragon and rabbit perked up at that. "You can hear us?" the rabbit started. "Truely?" the dragon finished. "I can," harry responded.

And with that, the three of them hugged each other as best as they could. For the dragon and rabbit, they were glad to FINALLY have someone able to hear them after so long. For harry, it felt like he was becoming whole.

The three did not want to stop the hug.
