The Last Task

Harry Potter isn't mine. JK owns every thing HP. But this plot… is mine…. Enjoy reading and please review. In Chap 11 Harry found out that he can transfigure things without the use of his wand and can freeze time. Ain't that cool? We're nearing the end of the story probably a few more chapters after this.

Chapter 12: The Missing Pages

It had been two weeks since Harry found out his special gifts. The trio was going through some extensive training since then. They were not taking any regular classes instead they trained with Sirius, Remus, Mandungus, Moody, Bill and Charlie and the Hogwarts' professors.

Ron doesn't only summon things towards him, now he can move them around at will. Hermione had been able to control her premonitions only very violent ones can cause her to faint. She had been able to learn and develop very powerful Charms and at Snape's dismay she can also concoct very difficult potions. Harry on the other hand had mastered the skill of turning just about anything into weapons. He had also been able to master his skill of freezing time.

It was almost Christmas vacation and the auror training started a week after the announcement of those who passed. Many from the Gryffindor house qualified for the training. Surprisingly Neville Longbottom made it along with Dean Thomas. Former Gryffindors like Oliver Wood, Fred and George Weasley made it also. There were also some from Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and there was Draco the only one from Slytherin. They had been in training too along with others from different wizarding schools.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry, Ron and Hermione were practicing their warding spells under Arabella and Remus. They were supposed to make a ward around an intricate ancient artifact. First they were allowed to work together, making a very powerful ward that no matter what Remus did he couldn't go near the warded artifact.

"Very good, you three," Professor Figg, "Now you have to conjure the ward individually. A wizard may create a ward different from other wizards. Ron you first."

Ron stepped forward and pointed his wand at the stone tablet placed on top of a wooden table. Then he said, "weardes!" A bright red glow circled around the artifact. Remus then tested this by using some spells to tear the ward down. Most of them bounced around the room. Remus smiled at the type of ward Ron created.

"You made a curse repellant ward, Ron. Well done! You can use this kind of ward but you can't use this against very experienced wizards like Voldemort," Remus explained

"Why is that?" asked Ron with a frown on his face.

Remus went towards the artifact and without hesitation he grabbed the tablet from the table. His hands went past the red glow. "You see Ron, this ward is powerful when it comes to curses and spells but after all the magical hits they get, they become manually vulnerable. That means, if you don't use any magic to get to it you wouldn't have any problems and you'll easily find it. You can still work on that," Remus assured him.

"Hermione, you're next," Arabella said. Hermione stepped forward. Hermione used a different wrist movement before saying "weardes!". That instant she had conjured what seemed to be a blue flame and it circled the tablet. Arabella tried to hit it with spells to break the ward but it seemed to absorb the spells. The blue ward was growing a lot bigger as she cast more spell.

"Remus, try reaching for it," Arabella said. He couldn't go near the ward. It was shooting out blue flame.

"You've conjured an absorbing ward. It's very hard to break. Only a few people can break a ward like this, Aurors, members of the order and Dumbledore. Well, done Hermione," Arabella commended. Hermione sat back beside Harry with a smile on her face.

Hermione said, "Extinguish!" and the blue flame were gone.

"Harry, you're next," Arabella said. Harry stepped up, took a deep breath and did a different wrist movement from Ron and Hermione then said "weardes!" To their surprise a red flame shaped like a griffin enclosed the tablet.

Both Professor Figg and Remus said spells to break the ward. The spells backfired to the ones casting them and both Arabella and Remus had to shield themselves from the backfiring spells. The ward was unbreakable, even as powerful as the one the three of them conjured. They stopped trying to break the ward.

"I have to say. You can make a ward almost as powerful as Dumbledores on your own. You're truly exceptional Harry," Arabella commented. "Now I have to ask Bill to try and break this one."

Remus fetched Bill from the Trainee tent. He was with his other brother Charlie lecturing about Auror duties. When he got in the tent he saw what Ward Harry had conjured and his mouth was hanging open. " I can't believe this!" he said.

Harry and Ron stood up in confusion. "Why what's wrong?" Ron asked.

"Harry, you conjured this?" Bill asked in astonishment.

"I did. Is there anything wrong with it?" Harry asked.

"Harry, have you any idea what you just made?" Bill asked.

"A ward I suppose," Harry answered.

"You've just conjured one of the most ancient type of ward there ever was. It was used by ancient Pharaohs of Egypt to guard their pyramids and these types of wards are the reason why they couldn't be opened. The only person who can break the ward is the person who cast it himself," Bill explained.

"Try touching it Harry, it won't hurt you," Hermione said finally realizing what kind of ward Harry had conjured.

Harry went to touch the Griffin shaped red flame that enclosed the tablet. It was warm but it didn't burn him. The Griffin spread out its wing then slowly disappeared.

"Well done Harry," Remus Arabella and Bill said in unison. Both Ron and Hermione also congratulated him.

"I see you are ready to learn more things," Dumbledore said as he entered the tent. "Bill was right to say that it was ancient magic that was used in Egypt. Actually some of the greatest wizards known even in the times of the Greeks and Romans used that kind of ward and it takes a very powerful wizard to summon a guardian. Your guardian Harry is the Griffin. Every time you cast a ward on something, a griffin will appear and be its protector. You can even cast it on people."

"Wicked!" Ron said. "How did you do that Harry? Can you teach me?"

"I don't know Ron. It's just how I waved my hand I guess," Harry answered.

"No Harry, it wasn't just your hand movement. Only a few chosen wizards can summon a guardian. Wizard with gifted powers," Hermione explained.

"Right you are Miss Granger. Harry here, is truly exceptional and by the looks of things I think he is ready to be my apprentice," Dumbledore said as he looked at Harry.

"Me, an apprentice but I haven't even finished studying at Hogwarts," Harry said wide his eyes widening in astonishment.

"Ah, but Harry, you are ready and I have great confidence in you. I should be able to teach you enough knowledge of your powers before you come face to face with Voldemort. I know Miss Granger already knows that," Dumbledore said.

Hermione nodded. "Dumbledore's right the day of facing Voldemort will come and you have to be prepared," she told Harry.

"Are you willing to take your apprenticeship from me?" Dumbledore asked Harry.

"Of course sir. It's a great honor for me to study under the greatest wizard of our time," Harry exclaimed.

"Congratulations mate!" Ron exclaimed. "But Professor will Hermione and I still train?" he asked Dumbledore.

"Why of course Mr. Weasley, both of you have a very important part in this battle. You will still have your special training," Dumbledore explained. "Harry we will leave at dawn. We will go to the Hidden Valleys for you to train."

"We're leaving? I…okay professor," he said. 'I'm leaving Hermione,' he thought.

'I know Harry. But we will see each other again when you finish training and… I'll miss you Harry,' she said in her thoughts.

"Just bring your wand along with you and everything else would be taken cared of. I'll see you at the door of the great hall. I better be going now. Please continue with their training Professor. Bill, Remus I need to discuss a few things with you." Dumbledore left the tent followed by Remus and Bill.

Harry, Ron and Hermione continued with their training. After studying the different kinds of wards. They were taught blocking spells and curse shields. Later that day they studied cure serums with Snape and after that they went to train individually for their special skills.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[n/a]: Sorry I didn't elaborate the whole Lucius got arrested and was sent to Azkaban thing. I kind of figured that after Draco had filed the complain… you know the drill and I don't think important characters would want to be in a hearing accusing Lucius Malfoy.

"Is it true Albus, that Lucius broke out from Azkaban and he had convinced the Dementors to side with the Dark Lord?" Remus asked.

"I'm afraid it's true Remus. Sirius had informed me that the escape happened today. I believe Draco of all people should be protected. His father may come after him. He was after all the reason why Lucius had been imprisoned. Lucius on the other hand had proven himself wise by taking the opportunity to convince those foul creatures to take their side. Now we have to be more careful," Dumbledore said.

"But professor what if you-know-who attacks the school?" Bill asked.

"The new Aurors would have to go through more difficult training. The students will be off for Christmas and it would be a good opportunity to put them into more extensive training. If I'm not mistaken Voldemort will attack Hogwarts last, knowing Harry is here. It would be his sealing faith," Dumbledore replied. "I will take Harry to a place where he would learn his true powers. His gifts are evident but he can do even far greater things."

"Poor boy, he shouldn't have this big a burden over his shoulder," Remus commented.

"Great people, always have to face great deal of sacrifices and in Harry's case he had paid too much for all the things that happened to him. Defeating Voldemort may seem a burden now but it would be his way of finally sealing his past and starting his new life and a new life for all of us," Dumbledore explained.

"I hope he can survive all this professor. He's too young for all this suffering," Remus argued.

"Well, it is his destiny and I know that he has a lot of people sharing the burden with him," Dumbledore reasoned. "Have faith in Harry. He may be just a seventeen-year-old boy, but he had gone through so much that he'd pass to be 40."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After all the training, Harry, Ron and Hermione made their way to the Gryffindor tower. When they reached the corridor to the portrait hole they met Ginny, Draco and Lavender.

"What are you three doing here? Have you eaten dinner yet?" Ron asked them.

"We had to see you three," Ginny said. "Bill said Harry is leaving tomorrow."

"I'll be training under Dumbledore," Harry said.

"Yah, he is but Ron and I would still be here to train also," Hermione said. She couldn't hide the sadness on her face.

"We heard about your father's escape Draco," Harry said.

"Remus told me about his break out. He must have planned all this. He used me," Draco grunted.

"Your father is just cunning he used an unfortunate event to their advantage," Hermione explained.

"You know the sad part is, before he left for Azkaban. I asked him if he did kill my mother and you know what he did?" Draco said he was almost in tears. "He did not deny killing my mother. He told me that she was worthless and that I am following her footsteps,"

Ginny tried to comfort Draco. "It's not your fault that he had convinced those Dementors. They're evil and they just followed their nature it wasn't your fault," Ginny assured him.

"I think you guys should come and stay with us for a while in our common room," Harry said as they made their way to the portrait of Godric Gryffindor. Hermione said the password and all six of them got inside the miniature Gryffindor common room.

"Tonight is my last night before I leave to train with Dumbledore and I want all of us to have a simple party," Harry announced. The gloomy look in everyone's face changed.

"Good idea mate!" Ron exclaimed.

"Dobby!" Hermione called and snapped her finger. Dobby appeared in front of them.

"Yes, Miss girlfriend of Harry Potter?" Dobby greeted her.

"Can you and Winky bring some food for all of us here?" Harry asked.

"Yes, Mr. Harry Potter sir," Dobby said gladly.

"And you and Winky can join us in our little party," Hermione said.

"Ms. Hermione is quite generous thank you miss. I Dobby will bring Winky, yes."

"Oy, don't forget the butterbeers," Ron told Dobby.

"Yes, sir, other friend of Harry Potter," Dobby replied before leaving.

"You live like a king here Harry," Ron commented.

"Not really. We seldom call Dobby or Winky for help," Hermione said.

"Then what happened to S.P.E.W.?" Draco asked.

"Well, Winky and Dobby get wedges and I asked the two of them to talk to the other house elves so they would know that they have rights also," Hermione said.

"See, my Hermione is the most beautiful person for me. She's not only pretty but has a beautiful heart," Harry said as he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Speak for yourself, Harry. I think Lav is the prettiest," Ron commented hugging Lavender closer to him.

"Not as pretty as my Ginny," Draco said and Ginny snuggled closer to him.

"Well, to each of our own then," Harry said.

"Yah," Ron and Draco said and the girls giggled.

Everyone was engrossed in their own little conversations, Ron and Lav sitting in front of the hearth, Ginny and Draco on one couch and Harry and Hermione on the other.

"How long do you reckon your training would be?" Hermione asked Harry as they held each other's hand.

"I don't know? Maybe weeks, months hopefully not a year I can't bear the thought of not seeing you that long," Harry said and it made Hermione blush.

The food didn't take a while to arrive. It was like having their table from the great hall. They had Roast Chicken, Steamed fish, Vegetables salad, cakes, and just about anything they wanted to eat. Dobby and Winky stayed with them. Dobby had a lot of fun eating with Harry and his friends but Winky was still uncertain about it. It was unlikely for house- elves to be around their masters at festivities.

It was almost midnight when Ron and the rest of them went off to their own dormitories to sleep. They wanted to be present before Harry leaves very early the next day.

Hermione was still cuddled up close to Harry. "I wonder what would happen to you next?" she said. "Have I told you that I've finished reading the book?"

"Well, what did the book say? Will I be able to defeat Voldemort?" Harry asked her.

"Actually, the last few pages of the book were missing. It had been torn out of the book. It was ripped off carefully that you wouldn't notice it unless you read the book and finally reach the last part and you'd figure that there are still some continuing pages only they're missing," she said.

"I guess, we're on our own on this one. The book doesn't say anything about the day Voldemort will come and get me?" Harry asked.

"Those were probably at the last pages and well, they're gone. I really wished it was written there, then I would know," Hermione said.

"Yah, I wanted to know if I'd live up till the next day after the battle or would I fall in his hands," Harry said then he kissed her forehead.

"Oh… Harry you will survive. I know you will. Remember our dreams they will come true," Hermione tried to reassure him.

"What I really don't like about this whole thing is I might not be able spend Christmas and the New Year with you," Harry said. "It would have been our first Christmas and New Year together and I might not be there to celebrate it with you."

"I would really miss you on those occasions but the thing is there would be more Christmases and New Years that we will share together once you finally defeated Voldemort," Hermione comforted him. "I love you Harry and I know we'll get through this together."

"I love you to Hermione," Harry whispered. "Will you let me hold you tonight before I leave?"

"Of course Harry. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else especially when I won't be seeing you in a while," Hermione replied. She then wrapped her arms around his neck. They both whispered I love you before finally falling asleep in each other hands.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ginny and Draco was still walking around the castle. They had an excuse for doing so they were both Prefects after all. They were walking together hand and hand.

"So, how was your day?" Ginny asked Draco.

"Well, the training is getting harder and harder everyday. I have to say your two brothers are quite helpful. Moody is really very strict. The day he interviewed me I thought he was going to flunk me out because my father is a death eater," Draco told her. "I was a bit startled by the news that my father escaped and he brought along the Dementors and the other imprisoned death-eaters. I bet Hermione would get a number of dreadful vision attacks everyday."

"I just hate it that you had to be in the middle of a war and your going against your father. I mean now I know how lucky we really are, me and Ron, my family are fighting all at the same side, having a single cause," Ginny said.

"I couldn't save my mother from my father before, I guess the only right thing to do is to save me from him. All my life I lived in all the lies he told me. My mother was the only person that kept me sane and even she died because of it. I would have been a death eater even before but mom stopped father. She told him I was too young and not ready but the truth is she wanted to save me from all the evil that surrounded our family," Draco said to her.

Ginny faced him and held him close in a tight embrace. She knew that he was in a very difficult situation and he still did what he had to do. He was brave. He could have been a Gryffindor like them. Only he had too much urge in him to prove himself. His parent's were both Slytherin and his father had talked him into wanting to be in Slytherin that must have been what the sorting hat saw in his mind, his thirst to prove himself to his father. "I love you Draco and from now on you're part of my family," Ginny assured him.

"Thanks Ginny, I love you too," he answered her and gave her a kiss on the lips. They made there way back to the portrait of the fat lady. Ginny said the password, which was 'Hippogriff.' Draco walked off to the dungeons when Ginny was already inside.

He was already in the entrance Hall when he heard someone call out to him.

"What are you doing here Pansy aren't you suppose to be sleeping in your dormitories?" Draco asked her. She was standing in front of the stairs to the dungeon.

"Did you know what happened today?" Pansy asked walking towards him.

"If it's my father's escape they already told me," Draco retorted.

"You know they'll be coming after you," she said. "You can still back out you know. You can still come and talk to your father. He'll forgive you if you only ask for it."

"I'm not quitting my training and I won't be a death eater. I'd rather die than be like him," he reasoned.

"You mean like me," Pansy interjected.

"Yes, I don't want to be a death eater like you. You could have been something else. You could have a better life," Draco told her.

"Here we go again! I can't go back now. I've embraced my destiny Draco. You're the one who's living in a dream. Voldemort will be back in power. I'm telling you none of you will have a merry Christmas. A lot of people will die and it's because they're stupid. You didn't have to join in. You don't need to prove that you're brave. You're not a Gryffindor so you don't have to pretend," she retorted.

"I may not be a Gryffindor but it doesn't mean I'm not brave and this isn't about wanting to be in Gryffindor. It's doing what I think is right. Did you know that Harry knows your secret and I just asked him to keep quiet about it? I told him I can still change your mine," Draco muttered.

"Well, you're wrong. You can't persuade me to take your side. And what do you expect me to say? Thank you for saving me from Harry Potter. You're putting your faith on a boy as old as you. Do you think he can surpass the powers of Voldemort? You ought to be kidding me. He was lucky then but now no one's going to protect him," Pansy reasoned.

"Pansy, it's not too late to change your mind," Draco tried to tell her but she went down to the dungeons. He knew that he was in very deep trouble and that his father would really want him dead but he promised himself that he would fight, for his mother, for his new friends and for Ginny.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry was up and so was Hermione. He only had his wand in his pocket and his picture with Hermione in the Halloween ball courtesy of Colin Creevey.

They went down to the entrance hall and to their surprise they saw all the Gryffindors waiting for Harry.

"Ron, why is everyone up so early?" Harry asked him as he and Hermione went down the stairs to the entrance hall.

"They came here to support you Harry," Ron said. "We want you to know that we all believe in you."

Harry gave Ron a hug. "Thank you all. This really means so much to me," he told them. Draco was also among the people in the crown he was standing beside Ginny. Some of the other students from Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw were now joining. Everyone was applauding.

"We know you can do it Harry," Hermione said to him then she hugged him so tightly and the people around them applauded louder.

'I'll wait for your return Harry,' Hermione said in her thoughts. She was starting to cry.

'Don't cry Hermione that's not what I want to remember you by. I want you to smile for me,' he answered her through his mind. She smiled at him and for the last time before leaving for training he kissed her. And the crowd roared with cheers.

Dumbledore came and join in the crowd of students with him were members of the faculty and members of the Order.

"I see they have all said their well wishes Harry," Dumbledore said. "I ask all of you to go on with the regular daily schedule. There wouldn't be a winter ball this year and the students would all be sent home unless they wanted to stay for the holidays. Auror trainees shall stay and finish their course during this holiday. Professor McGonagall will take over while I'm gone. We shall come and join you again after Harry's training. Goodbye to you all."

Remus and Sirius were snickering like kids with the sad sentiments Dumbledore had said. Ron noticed it and was a bit confused by it. Harry was leaving and was not sure when to return and his godfather and Remus was hiding their laughs.

Dumbledore went out of the door in the entrance hall and Harry followed behind him. Ron and Hermione went out to watch Harry and Dumbledore make their way to the gate towards the dark forest.

Harry was awfully quiet while walking their way in the grounds to the dark forest. "Professor where exactly is the Hidden Valleys?" Harry finally asked Dumbledore as they walked deeper into the forest.

"As the name itself it is hidden. Portals open in certain places that lead to the valleys. There you can practice and master whatever magical powers you have and you will not be disturbed by outside forces," Dumbledore said.

"Well, professor why can't Ron and Hermione come with me then? They can train and learn with me also," Harry asked.

"Only one wizard of his generation is allowed to enter the portal. In your father's time he was chosen to enter. See your father had special powers such as yours and Voldemort wanted your father to work for him so badly but your father refused. Your mother was an exceptional witch even if she was muggle born. Ms. Granger reminded me so much of your late mother," the older wizard explained. "Your father was the only leaving Potter at that time all your aunts and uncles were killed and so we're your grandparents and you Harry is the last of your bloodline, your father being dead and all. In your veins runs the blood of Godric Gryffindor's only daughter your ancestor, Josephine. She married a young wizard, Henry Potter. They had children and in the line of Potters most of them are male. There were only two female Potters. Your father's Aunt Joanna and your father's sister Harriett. They both died and all the members of their family. You were named after your aunt Harriett she died on the day you were born," Dumbledore explained to him.

"Voldemort killed my family and all my wizarding relatives," Harry retorted his sight blurred by tears.

"Not only your wizarding relatives. Ever wondered why your aunt Petunia hated your mother? It wasn't just because she was a witch but because death eaters also killed their parents. They wanted to get to your mother and father and to you. Voldemort didn't intend to kill your mother because he wanted to use her powers but she protected you thus giving her life for you. This Harry is the reason why you have to fight. It was your destiny. You are the true champion Harry and your task is to defeat Voldemort. I will help you with all my might to teach you all that I know so you can put an end to all of this," Dumbledore told him. "I would have wanted to take the burden from you but it is something that you were born with. It is your burden and the only thing I can do is to help you. My time is up Harry after teaching you all that I know. I would only stay at Hogwarts until the end of term and then I can finally rest."

"You're leaving after this?" Harry gasped.

"Once you have won over Voldemort then I can finally say that my duty had been done and I can finally rest," Dumbledore said.

"You're going to die?" Harry asked.

"Certainly not my boy, well, that is if I don't die in battle," Dumbledore joked. "The portal is opened, shall we?"

A big whirl of bright colors appeared in front of them and with Dumbledore's prodding Harry jumped in with Dumbledore following behind. Harry felt himself being carried into some cold place and before he knew it he was in the middle of a flower meadow.

"Where are we?" he asked.

"The hidden Valley's Harry. And now we have to look for Hogwit he'd be waiting for us in that small hut," Dumbledore answered from behind him. They walked to the long path towards the small hut. Harry saw a small man with a big tummy and a jolly face. It almost reminded him of Santa Claus.

"Albus it's so nice to see you. Is he the boy?" Hogwit asked as he welcomed Harry and Dumbledore in.

"Nice to see you again Hogwit. Yes this is our young, Harry," Dumbledore answered.

"Ah, yes. Pauline, would you please bring out some tea," Hogwit called and a beautiful girl about Harry's age came out with a tray with a pot and cups.

"James, is that you? But your eyes," Pauline said.

"I'm sorry, I'm Harry? You know my father but you look as if you're as old as I am?" Harry said.

"He's James' son Pauline. He looks quite like his father doesn't he?" Dumbledore commented.

"Is he the one? The true heir?" Hogwit asked.

"He is Hogwit and he will train even much harder than his father," Dumbledore sipped a cup of tea.

Pauline was still staring at Harry. "He looks so much like his father," the girl said.

"How do you know my father? You look so young?" Harry asked.

"Time doesn't really exist in the Hidden Valley. Days will pass but the truth is it really hasn't. A month stay here would only mean a week in your world," She explained. "Your father came here to train but he really didn't finish his training. He was probably in his early twenties when he came here. After a few weeks he missed your mother so much and he asked Hogwit to open a portal for him back," Pauline said.

"I'm going to finish my training. I have to. I told Hermione that I would defeat Voldemort and I will," Harry replied.

"I see you also have a lass waiting for you in your world. I wish you luck then," Pauline said and she went back to the kitchen.

"Training starts tomorrow, Harry. Go and take your rest at the room on the second floor, last door to the left.

Harry was in a beautiful place and it felt so safe but he was starting to miss Hermione. When he comes back it would be as if only a few weeks had passed he reminded himself. When they got to the Valley it was almost nightfall and now he was up in a small room in cozy bed. He still missed Hermione and Ron.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry had been training for 2 months in the Hidden Valley. Dumbledore taught him how to be invisible without the cloak. He also taught him how to see people underneath the invisibility cloak. He also learned how to read thoughts but it wasn't like with Hermione because he can only hear other thoughts but not speak to them. He had been practicing a lot of wand less magic since his wand has no effect when dueling with Voldemort's wand. He had also undergone Physical training with Hogwit. Every night Harry dreamt of being with Hermione and it was as if he was watching her. He always held his picture with Hermione in his sleep.

After another month Harry had finally completed his training. There wasn't a single spell that Dumbledore knew that Harry didn't. Dumbledore had thought him the powers of the elements, earth, air, fire and water. When he combines all four he would be able to summon great powers beyond his imagination, of course only a determined and pure heart can do such magic.

"Goodbye, Harry Potter. I hope you'd be able to defeat Voldemort and do visit us sometimes when the next portal from your world opens," Pauline said. "Bye Dumbledore. And Harry I know you've been wondering how old I really am. Well, your headmaster is as old as I am. Is your father's friend that got bitten by a werewolf still alive?"

Harry was shocked with what Pauline said. "Yes, Remus is still alive, how did you know about him?" he asked.

"Well, your father told me about him. Give this bottle of water from the spring to him. This will cleanse him. I forgot to give it to your father then but I think it's never too late to help," Pauline exclaimed. "Bye young Harry!"

"Goodbye Hogwit, Pauline," Dumbledore said and a Portal opened in the meadow Harry waved goodbye before jumping into it. Dumbledore followed behind him.

[n/a]: So this is Chapter 12. Wait for Harry's return to Hogwarts after training… I know this chap is a bit lousy. Took me a while to upload it to. Anyways….wait for Chap 13… I've got some errors on the past chapters and I haven't updated them yet… once I'm done with this fic I'll try my very best to polish up those errors forgive me for my incompetence…. Sorry I can't help myself from apologizing too much…R/R.
