Harry Potter is not mine. This is a story from a fan.
When you're done, You're DONE.
Ch 22 The more you see, the more you learn
Rita Skeeter appeared at the edge of Stonehenge. As she looked at the circle of borders she could see that it was still complete. For the Muggles, it looked like it was in ruins, but for them, it was like the day it was built. Before she walked to the circle she first walked back. She had a gift that no one knew and it had helped her a lot. She had the ability to feel a ward and walked through it without being noticed. So when she got to the edge she felt with her hand. As her hand glided through the ward she could feel it was an ancient one. It was older than she ever had felt before. The legend told her that it was placed there by Morgana herself. While she felt around she could tell it came from that time. But if Morgana had placed it herself, that was something she didn't know, but it was from that time period. While she pulled back her hand she made her way to the stone Circle. There would not be any magic being performed, but it was told to come together when the magic of Morgana had shown itself again.
When she was halfway there she saw other witches appear from out of nowhere. There were even more than she thought there would be. She did see that not all of them were from England. There were a lot of witches from all across Europe. Even from the United States. If she wasn't mistaken she thought she saw people from Salem. As she walked on she stopped dead in her step. There right in front of her was the wife of the French minister. "Miss Delacour, I didn't think I would see you here".
Apoline stopped and turned to the voice. "Miss Skeeter, I heard you had joined but I'm not sure if I like your work. Going after a kid like that. especially when it is the grandson of Dorea Potter a high priestess no less".
Rita looked down in shame for a moment. She knew what she had done and it was all in the name of the press. In honesty, she was undercover from the start, but it was only her coven that knew about it. "I was there to spy on for information about Potter, we never knew where Albus left him so we have been looking for him. I became a Reporter the week after Potter was missing".
Apoline stopped and looked at the other people that had been walking on. None would bother a high priestess like she was. "Tell me, why did you go after Harry like you have done the last year".
A deep sigh escaped Rita's throat. "I started there to find out where to find Harry. It was said that Dorea Potter had the magic of Morgana running through her. So Harry would also have it in his blood. So if I could find him I could have gotten to him and brought him to the coven. We could not find him so I had to get in Deeper. Once I got into contact with Lucius Malfoy I knew what I had to do".
"That son of a bitch was just as bad as his father, and grandfather. We had to expel them from France because they were nothing but trouble. So when you got to him how did it go on from there" Apolline asked her as she conjured a couple of seats for them.
"Well, when Harry Potter got to Hogwarts I tried to find out if I could talk to him. Albus Dumbledore kept me from it and I had to find another way to keep tabs on him. We never found out where he lived but he was making waves fast. There were rumors that Voldemort had tried to come back that year but somehow Harry stopped him. In the second year he had done something that pissed off Lucius". Apolline smiled when she heard those words. " In his third year, Minister Fudge got him to Diagon Alley when he had blown up his aunt like a balloon. At the end of that year, it was rumored that he had defeated a hundred Dementors and freed Sirius Black. According to Harry and his friends, Sirius was innocent and Peter Pettigrew was the one who was the Death Eater. Fudge could not handle it and called them liars while he believed Severus Snape. Somehow Fudge was mad at the boy and asked me to get some dirt on him. When he was entered into the tenement I got the clear to do everything to pull him down. In honesty, I had a clear bill to find out what else was happening to the boy".
"That wasn't as easy as you make it sound. We have been trying to find out more but could never prove that he is the one ourselves".
"He is," Rita told her, "and no, it wasn't. I could see him in our church but somehow his magic kept me from following him home".
"How do you mean".
"Well, he has been coming into the church after last year. He was showing signs of pushing people away with his magic. One person was following him and we think that it was his Priestress. We were not sure but it was clear when she came for information about Morgana. It was there she told us Harry was using his magic in ways Morgana was told to do".
"Nymphadora Tonks," Apoline told her.
"How do you know that".
Apolline smiled. "Well, that one is easy, My daughter is there and she told me all about Harry. Now I will not tell you here but I will later. I will tell you if you can prove you are back on our side, you have to take me to your high priest and high priestess or your head nun. Now I know because Fleur has been a member of our coven. But when she turned seventeen she needed to find her own. She found her priest in Harry but he didn't know anything about a coven or Morgana. She is there to tell them when the time is right".
"You mean when they come together" Rita asked her as Apilline nodded at her words.

As the night went away the morning came around. As the eyes of Tonks opened up she knew where she was. A little smile crawled onto her face as she thought about Molly's face. That woman will have a fit when she steps out of this room, and she knew Molly would be standing there waiting for her. She knew this because she had placed a monitoring charm on her own room and Molly had opened her door just an hour before she woke up. "Harry, Harry" Tonks called out waiting for a mumbling boy telling her he was lying just fine. "Harry we have to get up now and play a prank on Molly".
Harry looked up and smirked a little "Only Molly".
"What are you thinking".
As a little sigh escaped the mouth of Harry, Tonks just waited. "I'm done Tonks, I know I told you before but I mean it. So I might be number one on Voldemort's hit list and if I'm going to die, I will have some fun before it. So I know I can trust you, your mum, dad and your boss. Sirius and Remus may be on my side but they have to play a game here. So they can not help me. In Hogwarts I have Minerva and Flitwick, I even think I have Poppy on my side. I'm not afraid of the ministry because even if they snap my wand I can go somewhere else. I do not know what I have from my mother and my father, but Sirius told me they had left me a whole lot. Enough for me to go away and leave the country. If that happens you can come with me and leave this place for Voldemort and he can do with it what he wants".
"So you are not going to fight Voldemort with me," Tonks asked him.
This stopped Harry from thinking for a moment. Was she really asking him to fight side by side? After another moment of thinking he told her. "If I get out yes, If the ministry snaps my wand no, If they do that then Voldemort will be looking for me because I will not be able to defend myself. So the only option I have then is to leave".
"You know what, you are right, If you get clear we will fight. If not I will go with you. No need to fight for people who are putting you down. But we have to take some people with us".
"What, do you want to bring Molly too". Harry rushed out of the bed and into the bathroom. He was just in time to shut the door before the stinging hex hit him.
As time went on Tonks waited on the bed. When Harry got out of the bathroom he saw Tonks sitting there on the bed in her bra and panties. He gave her a glance and turned around completely red. "What you have never seen a half naked girl before". Tonks asked a little surprised at his reaction. She had been like this all the time they slept. But then she remembered he wasn't all there before they fell asleep so he must have missed it
Slowly he shook his head, "No, I know a lot of girls wanted me to but it just isn't right. I want Love Tonks, but that isn't love. They just want me because I'm the boy who lived. They don't want Harry".
Tonks stepped behind him and pulled him in a hug. "I know what you mean, Boys and men always wanted me to be someone else, they never wanted me. They only wanted me because I could turn into the girl of their dreams. You are special Harry, so don't ever change". She pulled him even closer and laid her head on his shoulder. "You have been lying in my arms just like this. All night I have been holding you just like I am now. So you have nothing to be ashamed about you were a perfect gentleman, all night long". She kissed the side of his head never knowing her hair turned black and her face morphed a little. "Let's have some fun".
Harry nodded still as red as he was. "Now go out and wait for me in the kitchen". Harry nodded again and rushed out of the room. Just as he was out side Tonks called after him. "Harry please close your Zipper. What is behind it is all mine". He smiled back and when he looked out into the hallway he saw Molly standing at the end of the hallway. So he made a show of pulling his zipper up and smirked at her as he walked past her.
The door was still open and Tonks had a clear look at Molly who was looking at the back of Harry with her mouth hanging open. Tonks knew what she had to do now and got to her feet. She had pulled up her pants and walked around Molly still dressed in her bra. With her legs a little separated, she walked to her own room, "That boy knows how to handle a woman". While Tonks closed the door she could hear Molly turning red from anger. A moment later she opened the door again and looked Molly in the eyes. "The next time you open my door or the door of Harry, it won't be a monitoring charm on the door", and she closed it again.

The night before Tonks pulled Harry closer to her as they slept.
Sirius had chained Kingsley up to a chair and waited for Fleur to return. Somehow he knew Harry would be all right. how he knew it he could not tell you, but he did. As he watched Kingsley he had to speak up. "I'm not sure where your mind is, Bill. But I know you just lost it for a second. You had a good girl there and you just have to hope she will be willing to hear you out".
"She won't" Ginny spoke up. "You have done it and not only with her. Harry placed his own life at risk to save her sister. You might think she would be fine because Albus was handling it, but she wasn't. If her sister had been down in the lake for another twenty minutes her own magic would have killed her. She will thank him to the end of time, just like me. He saved me when I was on the edge of death. Just Like Gabrielle, I owe him a life debt and I will repay him by standing next to him. He never asked for it and he won't ask for it because according to him everyone should do it. But we all knew only a few would. Now you just accused her of the worst thing you could do and that is telling her she would use her body for it, while if you had paid some attention, you would have known that Veelas were used for their bodies all their lives. You just did the same thing as all the men had done in the past, so it has been nice knowing you".
"Ginny, I'm your brother" Bill screamed making the others look at him.
"Yes, and I'm ashamed of it" Ginny shot back making Remus and Sirius double over from laughing. It was right on that time Fleur walked back into the room giving Sirius the thumbs up.
Sirius looked at Kingsley and shook his head. He had no time to look after him and would let Tonks Handle it when she woke up. So he went to the one place he could get some answers. After a deep sigh, he went to the hallway and opened the curtains that were in front of his mother's portrait. "Alright mum, tell me. What is all this Morgana stuff".
Walburga looked at her son, for the first time since he came back, she was acting normal. "I'm not sure how it works because Dorea knew it much better. I only know what was told to me. Now, from back in the day Morgana was the only witch who knew how to use her magic on feelings that were running through her her body. Like she could do more than any other could in moments of, love, anger or hate".
"Like Harry driving off a hundred dementors to protect me".
"He did what," Walburga asked him. So Sirius told her how he was innocent and how he escaped and how Harry saved him. Walburga shook her head. "I have wronged you a lot, didn't I? I always thought that Voldemort was the way to go but looking back I know I was wrong".
For Sirius, it was a whole lot that his mother apologized to him. He couldn't bring himself to go against her because he was just too stunned to react.
"Well before this all went down to hell, a whole lot of us Witches were members of the Coven of Morgana. We were dealing with Muggles who were mistreated because they had magic. Dorea was told that she had the magic of Morgana in her blood. When Voldemort started to gain power I thought he was right. Dorea told me I was wrong and she had been right. When we aligned ourselves with him Dorea gained even more power. Morgana was speaking through her but when she got Dragonpoks she lost that power and died. At first, I thought James would get it but he wasn't worthy enough. I was still under the belief that Voldemort was the right way to go. On the day you were captured and Harry had defeated him I realized where the power of Morgana went. That boy had it but, Dumbledore made sure we could not find him".
"Are you telling me Dumbledore knows" Sirius almost hissed.
"He is smart enough to figure something out, but none of the covens would have told him".
"Covens".
"The first Coven was in the time of Morgana. I don't know how or why it was made, but it started with the only purpose of helping magical children. As the Coven grew we grew in members. A coven can only be of thirteen witches. So while the members crew, we all started to create more sister covens and I'm from one of them. Dorea was a high priestess and I was just a member. Today Harry was in touch with his Priestress and it revealed even more of Morgana's magic".
"Tonks" Sirius mumbled.
"She could be it or it was that Veela. Or it was one of the other girls. All I know is that the magic of Morgana protected the house and the blood. Harry Protected the house and the blood. He did it when he rushed in here and we have to help him".
"So I got to tell Tonks".
"NO, whatever you do, don't tell her, she has to figure it out all by herself, all of them. The magic from Morgana has to run free and has to lead its own path, or we might be on the wrong side of it".
"So what do I do" Sirius asked his mother.
"Nothing, just wait and see, help them when they ask it, whatever it is".
Sirius nodded and made his way back to the kitchen.

Voldemort had one hell of a night. He didn't know what it was but every inch of his body hurt. It was like his whole body had been on fire. He blamed Potter for it and he knew it was him or his blood that was doing it to him. Somehow the protection Lily had put on his blood, helped him and hurt him at the same time. Slowly he got to his feet and pulled on his robe. He had to work faster and kill that boy. He could not remain in hiding while his body was hurting so much. Lucius was his righthand man but he was still a malfoy and not to be trusted if he could not keep an eye on him. For a second time, he knew he needed Narcissa but it was also a big risk. She had never trusted him as did all the blacks. Bellatrix was an exception, but he had to kill her grandfather to get her loyalty. Well to him loyalty out of fear was still loyalty. His crutiatus courses did help him a lot to keep that fear alive. Now he never placed Narcissa under it, but today may be the day to get her to help him.
As he got out of the room he looked around. It was almost like he was alone in the house. He did hear some noise from a side room but nothing more. When he got to the room he saw all of his Death Eaters sitting around the wireless. "What is happening here," he asked making all of them jump.
Narcissa looked up and smiled a smile that didn't tell him anything good. "Well, it seems like something is happening all over the world. Stonehenge has disappeared for all. Muggles can't see it anymore and magical can't go up there. A very old ward has been thrown up and it is keeping everyone away. Looks like there is another power in town that is bigger than yours".
Narcissa knew she had done wrong the moment she lay screaming on the floor. She never felt this pain before and had only seen it being thrown on his followers. When the asshole lifted the curse she crawled out of the room. He had thrown it on her a couple of times before she got out, but she kept on crawling until she was behind the ward. When she got outside of the wards, she apparated away to the only place she knew she would be safe.

Sirius thought he would be the last to walk into the kitchen but he saw that almost all of them were already there. He missed a couple of people but most were there. While he sat down he saw all of them looking at the door. He knew they were waiting for Tonks and Probably for Harry too. He didn't know what they were thinking or what they were going to do. He laughed a little on the inside as he thought about the two of them. Somehow they would make a perfect match. Tonks was still a child between the two, and Harry was clearly the adult. Together they were a force not to take lightly. The more he thought about it, the more he got afraid of thought thoughts. Before Albus had thrown Tonks out of the Order, she was kind of working along the rules of the order. Now that she was free, he knew Harry was playing along with her, or she was with him. Maybe they were playing together and that was the scariest thought he had at this point. For those two to be working together meant that none knew what they would be doing or when.
Harry was the first to walk into the kitchen, he was followed by a screaming Molly. Sirius didn't know what she was screaming but Harry walked ahead like he didn't hear her. Sirius looked at the clock and saw that it was almost four in the afternoon. Whatever Tonks had done to him had done him good because he looked more rested than he did before. Harry sat down next to him and an elf he didn't know placed a plate of food before him.
"What were you thinking doing that in this house, How could you be doing that with that whore. Don't you know what she is capable off. My Ginny is way better than that".
Sirius was listening to the words and his eyes became big as they slowly made sense to him. Did his godson have sex with Tonks? Just before he could scream way to go, Son, Molly was pushed against the wall. Harry's eyes were on fire as anger was radiating from his body. Kingsley wasn't here so he didn't need to keep an eye on him. Most of the Order members weren't there and only the people who stayed because they needed a place to be safe were there. "Harry calm down," Sirius told him.
Harry had stood from his chair as he locked eyes with Molly. he heard the words all the way down to the kitchen, but now she had gone too far. "How dare you" Harry screamed. "She has been the only one who cares enough for me to listen. The only one who didn't listen to Albus when he told you all to leave me alone. She has been there for me while you all were looking on doing nothing".
"I don't like that tone young man" Molly screamed as Harry pushed her a little harder against the wall with his magic.
"For you to accuse her of something you have done yourself. I know that Bill was born right after Hogwarts so you must have done it at Hogwarts". Harry knew he was right, he wanted to say more but as he thought about it he saw Arthur standing there. The last thing he wanted to do was to hurt Arthur even more. He had seen that the man was sorry when he asked him about the letters and what he would have done if it was one of his kids.
"Harry drop her now "Tonks called out as she walked into the kitchen. As her eyes found the eyes of Harry she could see the anger and something else. Something pulled her to him and she had to follow him while she got the feeling he would be following her. Her feelings told her that they were more like one person than two different ones. As Harry was struggling with his feelings she had to touch him. She pulled him in her arms and whispered to let Molly go. there was a smack on the ground that sounded like some broken bones, It told her that Molly had dropped on the floor. "Good boy, now I can kiss you again because you are a good boy". As she pulled him close she whispered even softer before she kissed him on the lips. "They are listening so let's play it up. If I'm the whore then I will be yours forever". Tonks hadn't done anything with Harry and she didn't understand why she said it. But somehow she knew she meant it because she would do everything for this boy.
"I can't Tonks, it is so hard to be here. I don't trust any of them. I only trust you. The others who say they stand by me I trust a little but most of them I don't. Not while I'm here among people who will use me".
Tonks pulled him closer as she kissed his forehead. "I know, You only have to be here one more day. Tonight we have a meeting and the day after tomorrow we will see if we can keep you out of the box. Until then we will have some fun but for now, let us go to your room" Tonks whispered. She lifted her head and looked at Molly. "Let us go to your room and let you have your wicked way with me. Like they said I'm easy so let's go for it and see you you can keep up with me".
"They are looking at you aren't they" Harry whispered as Tonks nodded in his neck. She pushed him up the stairs and looked at Sirius before she left the kitchen. "We will be back for the meeting so they better be on their best behavior because I do not think I can hold him off every time". She knew she could but she would make them think she couldn't.

While all that was happening Amelia was sitting behind her desk. She had pulled up all the things she had written down and was now looking them over. "This is going to be one pile of pixy dung when I'm through". There was a soft tapping on the door and Amelia looked up. Hestia Jones stood there in the door opening. Somehow Tonks had blown up at her or something else had happened. One thing was sure and Hestia was about to come clean.
"Boss, I'm here to come clean or to empty my desk". Amelia smiled at her, she already knew she had been a part of the Order., So there wasn't much she could tell her she didn't know already. So she pointed her to a chair across from her and waited. "As you know I'm with the Order" Amelia just nodded and looked at her, knowing she placed the fear in her by just looking at her. Hestia trembled a little and let her head hang down. "I don't know what to think anymore, I believed Albus and did what he asked us to do. But it is all so scrambled in my head right now. I just don't know what to believe anymore".
Amelia thought about it for a moment and could see the struggle Hestia was in. "So you don't know if you have to believe Harry Potter, Albus Dumbledore, or the ministry. If you looked at it from all the points what do you think". Hestia just looked at her and didn't really know what she meant. Amelia saw it and knew what she had to do. "Alright, just take every side and look at it from both ways. Look at what the ministry does and What Harry does against it. Look at what Harry does and what the ministry does against it. Do the same with Dumbledore".
Hestia nodded and gazed at the table. "Don't just think about it, tell me" Amelia told her as she saw how Hestia became silent.
"Well," Hestia started. " The ministry is telling us all the things Harry is talking about and how he is saying all the bad things about the ministry". Hestia thought for a moment and brought Albus into her explanation. "Albus is saying Voldemort is back while the ministry is telling it isn't so. Harry is saying nothing about the two".
Amelia heard the words and smiled on the inside. Hestia was a little bit older than Tonks, but nowhere near the experience she herself had. It was the Auror thing to make the connections but an age thing to be able to do it. "So if you know what all of them are doing. Then tell me, what does it say about the three of them".
"Well the ministry is blaming Harry, and they are not letting him speak. Albus is blaming the ministry and he is keeping Harry away from everything. Harry is, SHIT".
"Alright, so you realized one thing, what is the next" Amelia asked her already knowing what she wanted to hear.
"That Harry is right" The moment Hestia said it she shook her head something was wrong but she didn't know what.
"We don't know that," Amelia told her making Hestia look up. "The only thing we know is that the ministry is blaming Harry. Albus is telling all he wants to say. But the only one we do not hear is Harry. He is the only one who can tell us what happened that night because he has been the only one who has been there. Now he could have seen it wrong and only think he saw him, or he was right and the bastard is back".
"But the ministry does not want him to talk".
"And that is the other thing. Why is he being kept silent by both sides".
Hestia got big eyes as she realized she had been a part of it. "So both sides are keeping the one who can help us ahead locked up in a corner".
"Yes," Amelia told her. "Not only that but in the way we are going it will get a lot worse. Our department has no money to protect the public because a lot of the Pureblood Death Eaters have been cutting our budgets left and right. So we need to know what is real and after that, we have an uphill battle to perform. If Harry gets sentenced the day after tomorrow we might get an even harder battle. It will all be hanging of what Harry Potter tells us".
It took a while before Hestia responded again. "I know we have fucked up, but what will you do about Kingsley and Mad-Eye".
Her question was followed by a very big sigh, "You and Tonks have been Aurors for a year, you a little longer than Tonks. Kingsley and Mad-Eye were appointed to train you both and they have done a lousy job".
"But Tonks saw, what I didn't".
"That is not your fault, Kingsley was supposed to train you better and he didn't. Mad-Eye did it with Tonks but forgot it himself when it was needed. If what Tonks has told me is true then I have one hell of a battle ahead of me". There was a swallow of fear from Hestia when she heard those words. "Speaking of that, I do not want you to speak of what we have talked about, I know you have a meeting tonight, and I also know Tonks and Harry will be on their best behavior. So whatever happens, Happens, You will not interfere and you will only look on. Learn and Listen because I know Harry will have something up his sleeve and Tonks will be going along with it". Amelia ended it with a penetrating look at Hestia.
This is it again for this time see you all in two weeks.
