Harry snuggled closer to Ar'Ron. He so loved waking up in the morning next to his soul mate. Reaching down he found Ar'Ron was hard, very hard. Reaching towards his rear Harry conjured some lubricant and applied it to his rosebud. After making sure he was good and slick he maneuvered so he was straddling the form of his sleeping mate.

Slowly he reached down and took hold of the hard shaft of his lover's penis and held it so that it lines up with his recently lubed rear and slowly sank down on the shaft, moaning in pleasure as the head popped past the sphincter.

Stopping when he felt Ar'Ron's pubes touch his butt Harry slowly started to rise and fall on the shaft watching his soul mate open his eyes in pleasure.

"Oh...that is so good...What a way to be woken up Mel'Anin" Ar'Ron gasped out.

Reaching up Ar'Ron slowly started to rub Harry's nipples until they became rock hard. After giving them one last tweak he reached down and grasped Harry's leaking penis and started to wank him off.

Harry threw back his head in from the sensations he was feeling inside and out. Picking up speed as Ar'Ron gripped his penis Harry was moaning louder.

As Harry felt himself getting close he felt Ar'Ron's shaft swell inside him as he started to shoot his cum, feeling the cum shoot into him Harry could hold back no longer and shot his own load all over Ar'Ron's chest.

Lying down on top of Ar'Ron slowly so his still hard penis would stay inside him Harry kissed him passionately.

"Morning Love" Harry murmured.

Using his mouth to slowly tug Harry's lower lip open as he kissed him Ar'Ron replied "Morning to you to."

Slowly thrusting his once again rock hard shaft in and out of Harry's rear Ar'Ron started another session of slow gentle love making.

Ar'Ron was pleased, even though school was back in session he saw the entire complement of his students from the summer stretching in preparation for their morning run.

As they started the morning run Harry fell back next to Ron. "Morning Ron fancy meeting you here."

Ron just looked at Harry like he was speaking some strange language. "Why wouldn't I be here?"

"Hello, school started yesterday." Seeing the blank look on Ron's face Harry tried a different approach. "You should be up at the school not over here with us; did you get up extra early so you could walk up here?"

Turning slightly pink Ron answered "Oh, Anthony came and got me, we used the transport stone."

"I'm worried Harry" Ron told his friend.

"What about?" Harry asked.

"Hermione, she has been acting funny all summer and what she did yesterday is just not like her to be so...I mean she was always going on about SPEW and such but...Do you think Dumbledore got to her like he did me?" Ron asked finally.

"I did not detect any spells on her, but that is not to say she has not been tampered with" Harry said. Glancing over and seeing the worried expression on Ron's face he added "Ellisia is bringing one of the Elven mind healers over this morning to take a look and see if they can find anything."

"Do you still fancy her Ron?" asked Harry as they rounded the corner for the third time.

"To be honest, I don't know. All we do is argue and fight and that is not what I want in a girlfriend, though she is pretty and smart, so smart" Ron rambled off.

"What's going to happen to her?" Ron finally asked.

"That is a good question, from what I saw yesterday there is no way in hell she will ever be allowed to take the mages oath, and that will cause hard feelings. I just hope when they examine her they find something we can fix and get our old friend back" Harry told him.

Finishing their fifth lap making it an even ten kilometers, they ran to the middle of the lawn where their weapons where lying on the tables. After picking up a staff Harry watched for a minute as the others paired off to start practicing. Noticing Draco and Ron paired off he thought of how much things had changed this summer.

Moving over to where Ar'Ron was waiting for him he moved into an attack stance. As they fought Harry brought up the topic of Hermoine's behavior and how much out of character it was for her.

As they moved back to the table to replace the practice staffs with their swords Ar'Ron told everyone to line up in rows.

"Before we start to practice I want to introduce a new skill into the mix. Most of you by now have mastered the fundamentals of battle magic and have learned how to channel your magic to charge up the rune spell blocks.

What we are going to do is channel your spells through your sword. You can do this in two ways, you can use your sword just like a wand as there is a magical core in the hilt or you can charge the sword with a spell, like stupefy, and when the sword touches your opponent it will discharge. The advantage of charging your sword is that the charged spell will by pass most shields.

To start with lets try casting stupefy using your sword instead of your wand. Step into your core and try to feel what the spell feels like as you cast it" Ar'Ron explained.

Ar'Ron watched as a chorus of 'Stupefy' was being cast. He watched the astonished looks on his student's faces as the spells started at the hilt and traveled down the sword to shoot out the ends of the swords in a brilliant red sword shaped blaze.

Harry and Ar'Ron shared a smile as they watched the fun the others were having.

"Harry look, this is bloody brilliant" Ron called out pointing to the end of his sword.

"Ok, gather round" Ar'Ron called out.

After they had gathered Ar'Ron told them, "as you can see casting using a sword results in a unique display, it almost looks like flames are being generated from your hand and traveling the length of the sword before bursting from the tip. In a duel against a non- mage this display can cause your opponent to be distracted giving you the upper hand needed to win."

Pulling the Japanese Katana from its leather sheath on his back Ar'Ron said, "Now if you remembered what I told you and to feel what the spell felt like." Looking at Ron's sheepish expression Ar'Ron said, "To charge up the blade with the spell all you have to do is to concentrate on how it felt for the spell to be cast, but instead of releasing the spell concentrate on holding that feeling in your sword hand."

"Like this" Ar'Ron said as he charged his sword with the stunning spell causing it to look like it was on fire, as red flames danced across the blade.

Ben watched on in awe. "That's so cool" he whispered.

"When charged like this the slightest touch on your opponents body will release the spell, in this case a stunner" Ar'Ron told them as he touched a passing butterfly stunning it.

Waving his hand he enervated it before it had a chance to fall to the ground.

Sheathing his Katana he told them "The shear fear your opponent will feel as you are battling and your sword catches on fire is truly worth learning this difficult skill."

Draco spoke up, "can you channel any other types of spells instead of just a stunner?"

"Yes you can, in battle, and I stress in battle only, by channeling a reductor curse wherever the sword touches it will cause an explosion. For instance it would be powerful enough to blow some ones arm clean off their body" Ar'Ron replied with a stern glare.

"Now since it is a quarter till we don't have much time left before we have to be up at Hogwarts for breakfast. So starting tomorrow we will meet outside the main doors of Hogwarts, at least until the training dome is built behind the castle." Harry told them. "Cool down stretches then you are dismissed. We will see you later in the great hall."

As Harry and Ar'Ron walked back towards Potter Castle talking about the busy day ahead of them, they heard the sounds of someone running to catch up. Stopping just outside the doors to the castle Ar'Ron glanced over his shoulder to see Draco running up the path before walking inside the castle.

Draco caught up to Harry and Ar'Ron just as they entered the hall that led to the transport step. Walking behind them as they entered the palace Draco asked. "May I have a moment of my Lords time?"

Glancing over his shoulder Harry saw the serious look on Draco's face almost as if he was dreading what he was about to say.

"Go ahead and shower and change, then meet us in the family dinning room, we can talk then" Harry replied trying to put the young man at ease.

After a quick shower where they spent a few minutes washing each other playfully, Ar'Ron and Harry dressed and went down to the family dinning room.

Walking into the dinning room, Harry glanced at Ar'Ron after seeing piles of parchment and Draco busily writing notes as he looked through what looked like a magazine.

Sitting down Harry looked over towards Draco and raised an eyebrow. "Draco, just what are you doing?"

Startled Draco shot his head up towards the voice. "Sorry my Lord I did not see you come in."

"Ok Draco, what's wrong?" asked Harry.

Squirming in his seat Draco replied. "Nothing, I just need to ask my Lord's permission for something."

"I see" Harry said as he glanced over at Ar'Ron putting fruit and bacon on his plate.

"And just what do you want to ask me?" asked Harry.

"Umm..." Draco hesitated.

Loading his plate so he could hide his smirk Harry said "come on Draco, out with it, you should know by now that you will not get in trouble for simply asking a question."

Nervously Draco placed his notes inside the magazine saving his place. "I would like permission to join you for your monthly lunch meeting with your managers."

"I don't see any problem with it, was there any particular reason you want to sit in on the meeting?" asked Harry.

"Yes sir, I have a few questions to ask about investing in muggle real estate" Draco answered.

Curious Ar'Ron asked "Is there a reason you are not asking Rakthorn these questions."

"While I am sure Rakthorn could answer my questions, he did state he has not had a lot of experience dealing with the day to day management of muggle real estate and he would need to consult with several of his colleagues before taking that step. And I know that Harry's managers do deal with this on a day to day basis and I was hoping that they could see any hidden flaws or pitfalls in my plans" Draco told him.

Thinking for a second Ar'Ron replied "Would it be helpful if Rakthorn attended the meeting also?"

"Yes it would, but I do not want to take anytime away from what the meeting is about, which is my Lord getting updates and such" Draco stammered.

"Draco, I have no problem with him coming, you can go over your plans and notes with him and then after we finish we can look over your project" Harry told him.

"Thank you my Lord" Draco said with a slight bow of his head.

Harry glanced over to were the Impare' were eating and noticed Thorny had a stack of parchment in front of him as did Dobby, the tell tail sign that they had things they needed to go over.

Nudging Ar'Ron Harry pointed out the two Impare' that were sitting patiently with notes in front of them.

Refilling his glass with juice Ar'Ron said "Thorny I see you have something that needs to be brought up this morning, why don't you go ahead and start."

Standing up Thorny started by saying "Majesty, War Pegasus like new home and happy they are. Was wanting to know if can get more animals to take care off?"

"Do you have a list of the animals you would like us to get?" Ar'Ron asked.

Nodding his head vigorously Thorny grabbed the stack of parchment in front of him and walked it over to Ar'Ron and handed it over.

Glancing through the papers he noticed that they were very detailed with information of habitat and numbers present in the world and sometimes notes that the animal in question was no longer found in the realm. Each also included a brief rundown on the reasoning behind bringing the animal back into the world if it was extinct.

Handing the pile to Harry, Ar'Ron commented, "Well done Thorny you put a lot of effort into this. We will start to work on getting the animals for you starting this weekend."

After finishing looking over the list that Thorny provided Harry passed the parchments back to Ar'Ron and looked over towards Dobby.

"Dobby I see you also brought something you want to talk about this morning" Harry said.

Dobby jumped up excited and grabbed his parchment and practically ran over to stand in front of Harry and Ar'Ron.

"Dobby has lists too" the hyper Impare' said as he set down the first pile of parchment in front of Ar'Ron and Harry.

"First is list of all Hogwarts Elf's and jobs they do, list is by boy elf, girl elf" Dobby told them puffed up with pride.

"Thank you Dobby this will be very helpful" Harry said smiling at the Impare' trying to be all dignified.

Seeing he still had a piece of parchment in his hands Harry asked "was there something else we need to go over Dobby?"

Holding the parchment in front of him Dobby nodded his head up and down as he stood on his tiptoes. "Dobby is asking for this, Harry Potter Sir" handing over the parchment.

Watching as Dobby was nervously wringing his hands in front of him Harry looked down at the parchment to find a drawing of a training maze on it.

Holding it out to where Ar'Ron could see it also they looked over the drawing and the legend of the various tasks and creatures one would have to pass to get out of the maze.

Looking over towards were the rest of the elf's were sitting Harry noticed the others of Dobby's protectors own were leaning forward with excitement on their faces. "Dobby I am not sure what you are after here, but if you are wanting to build this, then you need to get with Alastor, the two of you can build this thing in the training academy. I am sure the two of you can have a lot of fun with this thing" Harry told the now hyper Impare'.

Taking out a pen Harry wrote a quick note on the parchment before handing it back to Dobby.

Alastor,

Dobby brought me this plan and asked me for permission to build this as he put it 'place

to have fun.' I have decided why should he have all the fun so the two of you together can

build this. I think your students might benefit from the challenge the maze represents.

One last thing no matter what Dobby says you can not get a dragon for this thing.

Lord Potter

"Ok Dobby, take this note to Alastor and he will help you build your play ground" Harry said shaking his head.

"Any one else have anything else we need to go over?" Ar'Ron asked.

Seeing that no one said anything Ar'Ron said, "Minky if you would make sure that there is plenty of chilled red fruit juice at the head table tomorrow for breakfast. Harry and I shall have breakfast up at the school seeing it is the first day of classes."

Standing up Ar'Ron leaned over and kissed Harry on the cheek. "We need to get going Mel'Anin breakfast is almost over up at the school."

Waiting until Draco gathered up his notes that were spread all over his side of the table and stuff them in his pack Ar'Ron said "we better gate to just outside the great hall or we will be late."

Harry quickly drew the outline of a door and drew the runes before placing his hand in the center and muttering under his breath as he brought the gate into existence.

As they walked into the great hall Draco quickly walked over to sit next to Ginny and Ron at the old Gryffindor table.

Seeing Harry and Ar'Ron walk in Minerva waited until they had found their seats at the head table before rising and clapping her hands to get the attention of the students.

"If I can have your attention please, we can get started" Minerva called out.

Waiting until every one had quieted down she continued, "now I know there was a lot to take in yesterday, so until lunch time the professors and the students that have already taken the Mages Oath will make ourselves available to answer any of your questions about the new classes or about becoming a Mage."

Clapping her hands several tables appeared around the hall startling the students.

Most of the professors stood up and walked and claimed one of the tables as their own and using wandless magic to impress the students summoned their course information and books to the top of the tables.

For a moment as the teachers settled in to their stations no one moved, almost as if they were afraid of being first.

Draco seeing no one moving stood up and walked over to the table that Ar'Ron was sitting at.

"Draco is there any of the classes listed that you want to take as electives besides advanced business?" Ar'Ron asked.

"I would like to take basic healing, but to tell the truth I am not sure how full my schedule is going to be. There are a couple of classes I am interested in but I'm not sure I will have time" Draco answered.

"Well let's check your schedule right now" Ar'Ron said waving his hand and conjuring a chair for Draco to sit on. "Are you going to try out for one of the Quidditch teams?"

"Do you think I should give up Quidditch?" Draco hesitantly asked.

"Not at all, if you want to play, do so it will give you a break" Ar'Ron told him.

Pulling parchment out of a stack Ar'Ron presented it to Draco

"If you want, Basic Healing is an hour long class twice a week and can replace advanced business as both are half year courses" Ar'Ron told him.

Draco was looking at his schedule for the year and noticed how full it was.

"Of course Potions will be taught up at Potter Castle, and it would be helpful if you and Severus came together, that way you can save him a long walk" Ar'Ron smirked. "Does this schedule work for you?"

Startled Draco replied "What...Oh yes, I was just thinking as full as my schedule is how much worse it would be if I had not already taken some of my newts. I can see why now that newts have been extended another year."

Putting the parchment in his bag Draco told his guardian he would see him later and walked over towards where Severus was set up and walked up to the table just as Ron stepped in front being next.

Looking up from the list he was working on Severus noticed Ron Weasley was the next student. "Mr. Weasely?" he questioned.

"Professor, I know that I did not get a high enough grade to get into the newt level potions class, but I have really tried my best this summer to catch up" Ron told him in an almost pleading voice.

Severus stared intently at the youth causing him to squirm slightly. "Mr. Weasely is it still your intention to become and Auror?"

Standing up straight Ron replied, "no sir, I want to join the Torian Guard, as they are the best of the best."

Thinking for a few minutes to all he had seen this summer and how much the young man had changed after the removal of all the charms and spells. And while he might not become great at potions, this summer he had strived very hard to at least become competent.

"Yes Mr. Weasley you may join the advanced class" Severus told the young Weasely.

Excited Ron said joyfully "thank you professor, I will do my best."

"I expect nothing less Mr. Weasely" Severus told him hiding a smile.

Watching the young man walk away happily he made a decision. Standing up he cleared his throat and called out loud enough to be heard over the voices of students talking to each other excitedly. "Can I have your attention please?"

After a moment every one slowly turned to see the Potion Master standing.

"For your information I am changing my standards, to get into NEWT level Potions down to an Exceeds Expectations over all. Any one with an acceptable that feels they could have done better may see me to schedule a challenge test if they wish to take advanced potions" Severus said before sitting back down.

"That was a good thing you just did" Draco told his godfather.

"Yes, well he has worked very hard to catch up voluntarily over his vacation time to rectify how dismal his scores where thanks to Dumbledore" Severus said absentmindedly.

"That's not what I meant and you know it. Any way I came over to tell you his majesty suggested we travel together up to Potter Castle for Potion lessons to save you some walking" Draco told him.

Severus nodded his head to Draco as the next student walked up towards his table.

Minerva smiled as she watched the most hated professor in the school go out of his way to actually help students. Things were defiantly looking up.

Harry was besieged with questions regarding the Mages oath and students trying to figure out what he would be teaching them this term. Watching Susan Bones walk away from his table he noticed Neville was next in line.

Smiling at the timid young man Harry said "hello Neville."

"Harr...I mean Lord Potter I got an Outstanding on my DADA OWL thanks to you" Neville told Harry as he sat down.

"Gran said she was proud of me for fighting the death eaters, she wasn't even mad that I broke dads wand." Neville rambled showing Harry his new wand "Whomping Willow thirteen inches with mandrake heart good for Herbology."

Smiling Harry said "good for you Neville. I know you want to be a healer, are you going to take advantage of Professor Snape's offer? I will help you if you need it."

Excited at the prospect of realizing his dreams Neville stood up and offered his hand. "Thanks Harry it means a lot to me."

Shaking Neville's offered hand Harry said "anytime Neville..."

Harry stopped mid sentence as he felt the wrongness of Neville's magic. Looking around he caught Minerva's eye and waved her over.

"Problem Lord Potter?" Minerva asked.

Neville a this point was nervous thinking he did something wrong. "Har...Lord Potter what..."

"It's ok Neville, you did not do anything wrong it's just when I grabbed your hand your magic feels wrong" Harry explained to the slightly frightened teen.

"What do you mean feels wrong?" Minerva asked.

"Hold still Neville, this won't hurt at all" Harry told him as he started to cast a scanning spell at the young man.

Minerva watched as Harry cast a spell and Neville glowed and gray ropes appeared surrounding his body

"What in Merlin's name are those?" Minerva asked as the spell finished and Neville stopped glowing and the ropes became invisible once again.

Nervous and frightened Neville started "Harry..."

"It's going to be all right Neville" Harry said trying to calm down his friend.

"The ropes you saw represent magical binding, and seeing how they were gray it was done some time ago. Don't worry Neville we can remove the bindings around your magic" Harry told him.

Looking over towards where his other half was sitting talking to a bunch of third years Harry spoke above the crowd "Mel'Anin tyr o tysti olaes caesi vaeri shi cali ei vyrdaes [could you come over here please we have a problem]"

Ar'Ron told the students that he would be right back and walked down to where Harry and Minerva were standing with a student "problem Mel'Anin?"

"Yes, seems that Neville has had his magical core bound, some time ago if the color is any indication" Harry told him.

Ar'Ron eyed up the upset teen then looked at the frowning Headmistress and the anger on his soul mates face.

Severus was surprised at the number of students that would brave the potion masters displeasure to ask to take the challenge to be able to take his class. He thought to himself he would have to ask for help testing all the students that wanted to be tested.

Looking up he saw Ar'Ron approach a frowning Minerva and an angry Harry, leaning to the side he tried to catch the object of their attention, only to see a frightened Longbottom standing there. Telling Draco to take over for him for a few minutes he stood up and caught Filius's attention and nodding his head in the direction to where the others were standing.

Filius making his excuses hopped down off his chair and walked over to Severus. Together they walked over to where Minerva, Harry and Ar'Ron were standing.

In his high pitched squeaky voice Filius asked, "Minerva is there a problem?"

"Some one bound Neville's magical core" Minerva said in a somewhat shocked voice.

"That explains so much" Professor Flitwick said.

"This is too much to be coincidence, we are going to have to test every student" Severus scowled.

Seeing the young man was still shocked and frightened Ar'Ron said, "Neville, this is easily fixed, but I need your grandmother's permission to do so, as I will be manipulating your magical core."

Harry placed his hand on Neville's shoulder and gripped it comfortingly, "Neville, with your new wand and removing the binding on your magic you are going to be an exceptionally strong mage someday soon."

For the first time since this all started Neville let a small smile appear on his face, "do you really think so?"

"I know so Neville" Harry told his friend.

"Come with me Mr. Longbottom, we will floo call your grandmother from my office" Minerva beckoned the young man to follow her.

"Minerva if you would, have her come to the school and I will remove the blocks this afternoon" Ar'Ron said before turning to Harry.

"Mel'Anin, you probably should get going yourself as it is almost time for lunch" Ar'Ron said as he learned over and kissed Harry on the cheek.

As Harry walked away to collect Draco before leaving for the castle Ar'Ron turned to the other two and said, "we are going to have to have a staff meeting tonight after supper. I need to teach everyone the incantation for the scanning charm so we can start scanning all the students in the morning."

Raising his right hand over his head Ar'Ron swirled it causing church bells to ring out. Seeing he had every ones attention Ar'Ron spoke loudly "If you all would return to your tables lunch will be served shortly. For those of you who still need to talk with any of the professors please track them down after lunch in their respective offices. Remember third through fifth year hand in your new course selections by supper time. Those of you sixth year and above have until noon tomorrow to hand them in."

As the other professors sat down at the head table Ar'Ron stopped and looked over the students as they seated themselves. "I know this is unsettling for a lot of you, but please bare with the changes over the next couple of days as we reinstate courses to help you reach your full potential."

As Ar'Ron sat down food appeared on the tables and to his surprise a generous selection of Kobe beef sashimi appeared before him.

"My word is that what I think it is?" Filius exclaimed as he watched Ar'Ron pick up his set of chopsticks and coat the thin slices of beef in different marinades before placing it in the stone bowl to cook.

Popping some of the beef in his mouth Ar'Ron answered. "If you are thinking it is Kobe Beef and steamed vegetables, you would be right."

"If you would like the same all you have to do is tap your plate and ask to be sent what I am having and the house elf's will do it for you" Ar'Ron told the small professor.

Ar'Ron was amused as he watched half the staff at the head table talking into their plates.

Nearing the end of lunch Ar'Ron notice Kingsley step into the great hall and motion that they had brought the Grangers.

Telling Filius and Severus that the Grangers were here and he needed to leave Ar'Ron stood up and walked down the aisle towards the doors to the great hall.

Walking through the doors Ar'Ron saw two people standing nervously next to Dargoth.

"Mr. And Mrs. Granger thank you for coming on such short notice to meet with us" Ar'Ron said trying to put them at ease as he started to escort them towards the infirmary. "Guard Commander Shacklebolt told us that this was about our daughter?" Dan Granger questioned.

"Yes that is correct. For the past month your daughter has been acting belligerently to the point of having to be physically escorted out of Potter Castle by force and that does not even touch on her behavior yesterday after arriving at the castle" Ar'Ron told the two.

Looking confused Jane Granger said "how is this possible? We have spent the last month in the states and Hermoine is at the Salem Witches Institute where we left her yesterday."

Ar'Ron stopped dead and turned towards the Grangers, "excuse me?"

"Professor Dumbledore convinced Hermoine and us that she would be safer if she attended her last two years in the states" Jane said.

Looking at the doors to the infirmary in the distance Ar'Ron said, "then who do we have in the infirmary?"

Continuing to walk towards the infirmary he tried his best to answer the Grangers questions.

Opening the door to the infirmary and walking in Ar'Ron was verbally attacked by the unknown young lady.

"It is about time you showed your face; I demand that you release me right now" she yelled out as she stomped her foot on the floor.

"You have no right to keep me here against my will" arms crossed over her chest she angrily spat out.

Seeing her parents walk into the infirmary she rolled her eyes and sneered, "oh great, you had to drag them here didn't you, well they should not be here. Muggles have no business in Hogwarts."

Not wanting to listen to any more from the girl, Ar'Ron waved his arm towards Hermoine and encased her in a shimmering red dome.

"That's better" Ar'Ron said looking at the stunned parents of the Granger girl.

"That is not our daughter. She might look like Hermoine and sound like her with her mannerisms, but that is not my child" Jane Granger said forcefully.

"Kingsley if you would take Mr. Granger and go to the Salem Institute and retrieve Miss Granger and bring her back here so we can find out just what is going on" Ar'Ron ordered.

Turning his head as the doors to the infirmary opened Ar'Ron watched as Minerva escorted Neville and his grandmother into the infirmary.

Turning back to Mrs. Granger Ar'Ron suggested she wait in Madam Pomfrey's office until her husband returned with their daughter.

Waiting until Dargoth had escorted Mrs. Granger into the office Ar'Ron walked over and joined Minerva by the bed Neville was sitting on.

Hearing some one walk up behind her the matriarch of the Longbottom family turned to see who had walked up. Seeing the tall man dressed in a shimmering blue uniform Mrs. Longbottom looked up and noticed the ears and then she saw the majestic shimmering crown on his head.

As Mrs. Longbottom took a step backwards in shock she heard Headmistress McGonagall say "Mattie I want to introduce you to his Majesty King Ar'Ron of the True Elves, soul mate to Lord Potter."

"Ma...Maj...Majesty" she finally stammered out.

"Afternoon Madame. Mattie Longbottom is it then?" Ar'Ron asked.

Seeing the shocked pale woman nod her head he continued, "now that introductions are out of the way, I presume you have been informed that we found out your grandson has had his magic bound?"

Again she nodded and Ar'Ron continued, "I can break the binds easily but need your permission to do so as I will be working with his magical core."

Ar'Ron was starting to get concerned as the only thing the pale woman did was nod her head. Looking towards Neville to see if he had the answers to why his grandmother was acting like she was he noticed he was fidgeting on the bed nervously.

Leaning over slightly but making sure he could be heard by the others Ar'Ron said. "Neville, your grandmother does know how to speak doesn't she?"

"WHAT?" Mattie Longbottom said.

Standing up straight quickly Ar'Ron smirked. "Oh, Good I was beginning to wonder if you talked."

At this point Neville was chuckling; the thing was just too funny, his very opinionated Gran was shocked speechless.

"Sorry, but I do need your verbal permission to unbind Neville's magic" Ar'Ron told Mrs. Longbottom.

Clearing her throat and standing up straighter; "is this dangerous, messing around with his core?"

"No, it would be a long painful process done by any one else, but I should be able to get it done in about ten minutes and Neville will sleep right through the whole thing" Ar'Ron answered looking at the relieved face of Neville.

"Then you have my permission, do you need me to do anything?" Mattie asked.

"Can I take the Mages Oath after I wake up?" Neville asked. "You will need to spend the next couple of days getting used to your magic being stronger than you are used to, but Harry or I will administer the oath Monday next if you wish" Ar'Ron told the young man.

"Frank and Alice would be so proud of you Neville. As I am proud of you" Mattie told her grandson as she hugged him.

Ar'Ron wiggled his finger in a classic come hither motion and the screens at the end of the infirmary rolled over and set themselves up around the bed Neville was sitting on.

"Neville did you happen to pay attention to the passage in the booklet that explains the physical aspects of the Mages Oath?" questioned Ar'Ron.

Turning pink and looking down at the floor Neville whispered out "yes."

Sitting down on the edge of the bed Ar'Ron told the young man "nothing to be ashamed of Neville. It is just the way Elven magic interacts with Wizarding magic."

Standing up once more Ar'Ron said "I am going to turn my back and put in place some silencing spells up. So go ahead and remove your clothes and get under the sheets. Don't worry Neville I will make sure that you are not embarrassed when your grandmother comes in."

Neville still pink in the face turned around and started to disrobe. Getting down to his under shorts he glanced over his shoulder to see Ar'Ron still had his back to him and quickly pulled them off and was under the sheets in a flash.

"I am ready now" squeaked out Neville.

Turning around to see Neville clutching the covers up to his neck Ar'Ron let a small smile break out on his face.

Walking over to the head of the bed Ar'Ron placed a finger on Neville's forehead and said 'maer'

Now that Neville was in a deep sleep, Ar'Ron pulled the cover back passed Neville's knees and glanced down at his nude form.

Placing his hand in the middle of Neville's chest Ar'Ron incanted 'vaelaer si sholol'

Glowing ropes of magic appeared around Neville encasing him almost completely. Stroking the topmost rope with his hand Ar'Ron said 'shael' causing the rope he stroked to break in the spot his hand touched.

After ten minutes of destroying the bindings Ar'Ron was down to the last one, as he incanted it to break Neville's body finally acted in the release it desired and shot his load forcibly with the first shot hitting Neville in the forehead.

Neville shot a good seven times each with enough force to hit himself in the face or neck.

"Impressive" Ar'Ron mumbled as he waved his hand and cast a cleaning charm over Neville's body removing any evidence that the young lad had orgasmed.

Snapping his fingers Ar'Ron dressed Neville leaving his robe off and turned and banished the screens from around the bed.

Motioning for those waiting to approach Ar'Ron placed his hand on Neville's forehead one more time and said under his breath 'shaji shael o eisi vaeraer [wake when you are rested]'

Looking at Neville's grandmother Ar'Ron told her "all the bindings have been removed. There were three separate distinct magical signatures on the bindings; it is no wonder that he had so much trouble performing magic. I want him to rest for the remainder of today and then he needs to practice his spell work from first year onwards until he has mastered the new power level he has access to. It should take about a weeks worth of hard work."

Hearing the door to the infirmary open Ar'Ron turned his head to see a perplexed looking Kingsley followed by a confused and angry looking Dan Granger. Trailing behind the two of them he saw the form of Hermoine Granger.

"Well this is an interesting twist" Ar'Ron said out loud. Minerva quickly turned around and looked rapidly back and forth between the girl on the bed and the form of Hermoine that walked through the door "Merlin" she whispered.

Walking over to where the two girls were staring at each other Ar'Ron interrupted the staring contest "Miss Granger would you like to tell me what you have done?"

"I though it was all a dream" Hermione whispered.

"Hermione, please tell us what the dream was about" Minerva said softly as she placed her hand on Hermoine's shoulder.

"I was so angry at myself after coming back from the department of mysteries. I spent all that time researching curses and counter curses for the DA and was one of the first to be taken out. Professor Dumbledore came to me and after a long talk in which he tried to talk me out of performing the cleansing ritual that I was reading. I don't remember too much after that" Hermione said.

Ar'Ron looked over at Hermione, "I have a way for us to see what happened; this will not hurt at all."

Throwing his arm out towards Hermoine he incanted 'SHOW ME'

In front of Hermoine for all to see a scene unfolded of the night Hermoine and Ron where first in the hospital wing.

"Miss Granger why are you so angry?" Dumbledore said as out of sight his left hand made a small circular motion with his wand.

"I was totally useless during the fight," Hermione spat out.

With another wave of his wand a book appeared on the bedside table next to Hermione

"I am sure in the future you will do better Miss Granger" Dumbledore told her.

"Humph" Hermione said as she crossed her arms across her chest.

Conjuring up a chair Dumbledore sat down next to the bed wand in his left hand pointing at Hermoine as re reached over to the night table and picked up the book.

"More light reading my dear" Dumbledore said.

Looking at the title of the book Dumbledore said in a gentle firm voice "I really think you should not consider doing the ritual you have found in this book Hermione" waving his wand at the girl again just out of sight.

"ENOUGH" said Ar'Ron. "So Dumbledore manipulated Hermoine into performing a splitting ritual."

"I copied down the spell I used, I was going to research it in the library" Hermione said as she pulled a piece of parchment out of her pocket.

Taking the parchment out of the girls hand Ar'Ron glanced at it before saying "foolish girl, do you know what you have done?"

"Can't we just get rid of the other one?" Jane Granger asked.

"You do not understand, what she did was split her good side and dark side into two distinct parts and created a body for each" Ar'Ron sighed.

"That's a good thing right, I mean religions have been striving to purge the darker aspects of their clergy for centuries" Dan said.

"Unfortunately it does not work that way" Ar'Ron said.

Pointing at the two girls "neither can live if the other dies. And the light or good Hermoine would soon start to fade away, as it is by both sides balancing one out that makes a person what they are."

Jane stumbled over the words, "can you fix...can you put the two halves back together?"

"That is not the problem, I could do that now, but I need a few days of research to be able to make her whole again without either killing her or having Hermoine's magic be destroyed" Ar'Ron said as he conjured up a flat red bracelet.

Walking over and placing the bracelet on Hermoine's arm he said, "Hermione this bracelet will not allow you to be more than ten meters from your doppelganger before it will react by transporting you back into the bed and keeping you there. This is not done as a punishment but to ensure both of you are safe."

"Mr. and Mrs. Granger feel free to stay here in the castle while your daughter is in the hospital wing. If you would excuse me I have some research to set into motion" Ar'Ron said as he then turned and walked out of the infirmary.

In a dark and dank underground base somewhere in the foothills west of Wiltshire, several people waited for their master to wake up.

Opening his eyes the man sat up abruptly and screamed out, "Potter I will kill you for this"

Bellatrix walked over and knelt by the side of her lord's bed. Bowing her head she said "my Lord you are awake, what is your command?"

"Assemble my death eaters immediately" he hissed as he sat up and pressed the end of his finger against the dark mark on Bellatrix's arm.

Standing up Voldemort grabbed his wand off the table next to his bed and waved it over himself muttering a cleansing charm.

Walking slowly as he was still weak, Voldemort left his bedroom and passed through the door leading to his throne room. Sitting down on a tall throne made out of human skulls he waited for his faithful to appear before him.

Voldemort's eyes narrowed as his death eaters walked into the throne room and bowed down on one knee, there were gaps in his inner circle. Casting his eyes out across the room he noticed that his ground troops were missing far more then the measly dozen or so he had planned to send to the raid on Diagon Ally.

Eyes glowing red in anger Voldemort hissed out, "Bella explain yourself, where are my missing faithful, and your husband?"

Trembling Bella placed her forehead on the ground in supplication before responding. "My Lord much has happened while you slept. The attack on Diagon Ally failed, not a single one of your faithful or Dementors returned. "

Enraged Voldemort leaned forward and screamed out, "WHAT?"

Trembling in anticipation of being put under the Cruciatus curse Bella answered, "The only information we have my Lord is from the Daily Prophet. They reported that an Elf was the one to capture your death eaters and kill all fifty of your Dementors."

Sitting back on his throne in shock Voldemort said, "an Elf how is this possible? They all left this realm eons ago?"

Looking at nothing in particular as he let this new information sink into his mind, Voldemort turned and barked out, "get word to Fudge immediately, I want him to track down this Elf."

One of the masked inner circle stepped forward and knelt on the ground. "Master, Fudge is no longer in power, The Council of Twelve now rule once more, Fudge was arrested and the ministry purged."

Now seething in anger Voldemort yelled "Crucio" holding the curse as the man writhed on the floor as the pain curse set all his nerves on fire.

Voldemort held the curse until he noticed blood start to trickle out of the death eater's nose and ears. Releasing the curse, "get that out of here, and give what is left of it to my Dementors to snack on."

Looking around and not seeing who he wanted Voldemort looked at bell, "Bella where is Wormtail."

"Master he took fifty of your death eaters and attacked the castle where the Council of Twelve were holding a ball to introduce themselves to the Wizarding world. No one has seen or heard about them since" Bella told him as she faced the floor hoping she would not feel his wrath.

Goyle senior spoke up "My lord the Elf in question is the new Guardian for Harry Potter."

Voldemort poured more of his magic into strengthening his Occlumency shields. It would not be prudent for his followers to see him shocked and frightened.

"Those of you with children still in Hogwarts write to them. I want them to report on every move Harry Potter makes" Voldemort told them before turning to look down upon the prone figure in front of him. "Bella take a team and start capturing Muggle males on the verge of puberty, kill the rest of the family in a most spectacular fashion. I want the muggles to feel the terror that is Lord Voldemort."

Standing up Bella asked "how many of the muggles would you like my Lord?"

Voldemort replied "the Ritual requires one hundred male sacrifices, virgins on the verge of puberty. Starting on the next full moon one per night must be sacrificed."

Eyes glowing and his face showing the glee of anticipation, "I will take their virginity as their blood sprays from their body to coat me in their life force."

Trembling in anticipation instead of fear Bella said "with pleasure master."

Looking over his followers Voldemort bellowed out "go NOW I must prepare the ritual chamber. DO NOT FAIL ME"

Harry walked into his classroom to find the Sixth year former Gryffindor and Slytherin's sitting calmly in their seats.

Slightly shocked but pleased, the two groups were not fighting each other; Harry set his books down on the corner of the desk.

Sitting on the front of the desk Harry looked over the group of students all looking at him. "Welcome to your first day of advanced Defense."

"I want to go over a few things before we begin. Any homework I assign will be due on the following Saturday by noon. That means it is to be placed through the slot on the wall behind my desk before noon. At noon exactly the slot will seal and then you will have to hunt me down and explain why I should accept your work late. I am not going to be a troll about this, but will try to be fair.

Now this class will deal with a lot of practical versus theory in class, the theory part is your responsibility to cover outside of class. On the side board" Harry pointed to the black board next to the door. "I will have written down your next three classes and the lessons we will cover, you are responsible to read up ahead of time. If you have problems feel free to hunt me down and I will help you."

Harry looked over the classroom to see if there were any questions, seeing none he continued, "unlike the other Professors I am not going to take roll or any such nonsense you will only be hurting yourself if you miss class, and in the event you are in the infirmary I will be notified and will make sure the work gets to you and you will have the first options on the open slots for tutoring."

Standing up and walking towards the side of the classroom Harry said "the first hour of class we will cover new spells and techniques leaving the last hour for dueling practice."

The students watched in shock as Harry traced the outline of a large archway onto the wall leaving a glowing line. Then he traced runes which glowed inside the archway and placing his hand on one of the runes he activated the runes.

The wall folded in on itself like the archway leading from the Leaky Cauldron into Diagon Ally.

Turning to face the class Harry noticed most had looks of awe on their faces, sighing he said "through this arch is the dueling room, around the outside walls are targets that will help you perfect your aim, it does you no good to perfect the spell if you can not hit what you are aiming at."

"Some of the Torian Guards will be in the dueling room between six and nine at night in case any of you wish to practice or get some extra tutoring in" Harry told them as he sat down.

"Take a few moments to copy down the schedule off the board and then if you have any questions I will try to answer them, afterwards we will move into the next room and you can practice your aim" Harry told them.

Daphne raised her hand after she finished copying down the information off of the board.

Noticing a hand in the air Harry said "Miss Greengrass you have a question?"

"Yes sir, I was wondering about the Mages Oath actually. Umm..." She hesitated before continuing "who do I talk to, to take the oath?"

Thinking for a second Harry realized they never did say who the students went to for the oath. "The young ladies need to talk to Ellisia, the master healer in the infirmary and the lads need to talk to either myself or Ar'Ron"

"And my parents sir?" Daphne asked.

"Anyone that has already left Hogwarts can go up to Potter Castle and tell the person behind the information desk that they wish to take the oath and they will be directed to the right office. No scheduling necessary" Harry answered.

Seeing another hand up in the back of the room Harry said "Mr. Finnegan?"

"I was wondering if the rumors were true?" Seamus said.

Putting on a stern expression Harry said "and what rumors would you be talking about?" Nervously pointing at Harry's crown he said "are you really a prince?"

Sighing Harry answered "yes I am."

"Now if there is no other defense related questions lets move into the other room shall we. Spread out along the wall and lets start practicing your aim with stupefy" Harry told them.

Ar'Ron walked into the class room to see groups of students milling around or at their desks doing what looked like homework for another class.

Seeing that he was being ignored Ar'Ron decided that a nice thunder barrage would do the trick. Standing in the middle of the room he incanted 'thunder'

CRACK...BOOM the sound literally shaking the desks in the room.

Students looked around the room frantically trying to see where the attack was coming from. All they could see was a tall elf walking up the center aisle towards the desk.

Ar'Ron took in the stunned looks from the seventh year students as he stood behind the desk.

"If you all would take your seats we will get started" Ar'Ron told them.

Ar'Ron watched as the students already seated put their work away and pulled out fresh parchment and those that were standing reluctantly walked over to their seats.

One group of five young men muttered angrily as they left the corner and sauntered over towards the desks. What caught his attention though were the armbands they wore, the armband had a green snake on a shield, the Slytherin house symbol.

"You five down here now" Ar'Ron said coldly.

The five former Slytherin's continued to walk towards their seats ignoring Ar'Ron's order with sneers of contempt on their faces.

Not about to let this pass Ar'Ron snapped his fingers while incanting 'transport' causing the five to appear in the area in front of Ar'Ron's desk.

"How dare you? You would do well to remember who your betters are" the tall ex- Slytherin sneered.

"Well seeing how my people gave yours magic in the first place, and taking into account your statement, I am your better as such you should be honored just to be in my presence" Ar'Ron sneered.

"You five have the unique honor of serving detention for the next seven days with Professor Snape and Hagrid on the nights he is otherwise occupied" Ar'Ron said as he waved his hand in circular motion towards the group and the armbands disappeared.

"The houses have been disbanded as such those armbands are not appropriate attire, if I catch you wearing them again or something similar it will be a months worth of detention with Filch" Ar'Ron told them as he turned to sit down.

Looking at the seething teens Ar'Ron said "you may take your seat now. Oh and Mr. Bletchley you also have an extra seven days detention for your cheeky attitude."

Ar'Ron watched the teens slink back to their chairs before continuing "this is Morality of Magic. This class is designed to make you think about how you use magic. This next true statement is going to shock a lot of you.

There is no such thing as light and dark magic, magic just is; it is the intent of the caster that determines the use of the magic.

Now this class is either pass or fail, and if you fail you will not be allowed to take your NEWTS until you do pass" Ar'Ron explained.

"This class is simple, the moment I walk through the door the day's topic of discussion will appear on the board. You then as a group will have forty-five minutes to research the topic in the small library to the side of my desk.

The books of course cannot be removed from these rooms so do not try.

You then will have five minutes or so to come to a consensus as a group to answer the question asked, be prepared to defend your position when asked" Ar'Ron told them before snapping his fingers at the board behind him.

Words started to write themselves on the board behind Ar'Ron

Crucio – Pain curse – Classified as an unforgivable

Tell how the spell was originally developed and the purpose and explain why the curse should not be classified as an unforgivable.

"You have forty minutes to come to a consensus" Ar'Ron told them as he picked up a journal and started to read.

Ar'Ron and Harry walked towards the infirmary to explain the only solution they could come up with to re-integrate the two halves of Hermoine.

"How has your day been so far Mel'Anin?" Ar'Ron asked.

Harry cocked his head to the side as he thought of his answer. "Real strange being on the opposite side of the desk. Over all I think I am going to enjoy teaching, so far in my classes the students have been respectful and attentive. Even the former Slytherin's have been respectful. Unlike your seventh year class I heard."

Chuckling Ar'Ron said "true, but after I finished with them I left them extremely confused."

"Talk around the castle so far is extremely favorable towards the new classes. Plus most cannot stop talking about mages" Harry chuckled.

"Hopefully things go as well for Hermione" Ar'Ron said as they approached the doors to the infirmary.

"I think I am going to have Dobby set up a nice dinner for two next to the waterfall and we can slip into the whirlpool afterwards" Harry whispered seductively.

"That sounds delicious" Ar'Ron said as he spun Harry around and kissed him passionately.

Releasing Ar'Ron from the embrace Harry opened the door so he could walk in.

Walking into the infirmary they saw Mr. Granger sitting at a small desk with Hermoine working on something across from him. Glancing at the bed where the other Hermoine was imprisoned he saw her sitting with her arms crossed shooting hateful looks at the pair at the desk.

Sighing loudly he walked over to the table "Mr. Granger, Hermoine how are you today? Is your wife around?" Ar'Ron enquired.

Dan looked up when he heard a voice behind him address him. "Ah, we have been taking turns going back to London to take care of our patients."

Hermione looked up from the research she was doing on Elves and saw Harry approach; she stood up and ran towards him. "Harry, isn't it incredible Elves are coming back into our world. Did you meet the master healer who is covering while Madam Pomfrey is recuperating, she is Elven not much is written ab..."

Hermoine stopped as she noticed for the first time Harry's ears were pointed, Looking again she noticed that not only was he different, taller and sleeker but he was wearing a crown on top of his head.

Biting her bottom lip she said "um, Harry why are your ears pointed?"

Snickering Harry leaned over towards his soul mate and said "notice the first thing she asked about was my ears not the crown."

Turning a nice shade of Red Hermoine sputtered "Harry"

Hermione eyes widened as she watched Harry conjure up two more chairs without using a wand.

Sitting down Harry replied, "Hermione the simple answer is that my mum was adopted, and was not muggle born like every one thought. As a child she had wandered out of the Elven realm and was found wandering by the Evans family and was adopted by them."

Hermione was sitting down across from him now doing her best imitation of a fish trying to breath out of the water "and the Crown Harry?"

Smiling Harry said "Hermione I would like to introduce you to the other half of my soul, King Ar'Ron of the true Elves."

Hermione looked to the Elf sitting next to Harry for the first time and saw the elaborate crown on his head and the pointed ears.

Raising his hand to forestall further questions Ar'Ron said "before your thirst for knowledge overcomes you Miss Granger, we have come up with a solution to your problem."

Dan sat up in his chair, "you found a way to safely put the two parts back together?"

"We have found a way to link the two Hermoine's together, it will take weeks but eventually they will be two parts that will act as one, when that happens by letting them touch they shall merge back into one person" Ar'Ron explained.

Harry added "Hermione will have to attend classes and eat here at Hogwarts as she can not be to far away from her doppelganger."

Dan thought for a minute before saying "When can we do this?"

"You can't do this to me, I won't let you" screamed the Hermione behind the prison bubble.

Turning his head slightly Ar'Ron said "actually your father can order this done as you are still a minor, no matter which half of you does not want to do this." Ar'Ron pulled a small box out of his pocket and set it on the table, tapping it with his finger the thin box enlarged to the size of a dinner plate.

Opening the box he took out two thin neck bands, one in gold and the other in silver.

"Follow me please Miss Granger" Ar'Ron told the young witch as he stood up and pushed his chair back from the table.

Placing his hand on the shimmering barrier and dispelled it, Ar'Ron pointed his hand towards the young witch that was making a move to escape and said "stand still"

Looking at the Hermoine that followed him he told her "Miss Granger when I give you the silver band I want you to place it around the other Hermoine's neck but wait until I count to three before snapping it together."

Hermione bit her lip as she said "yes sir."

Handing Hermione the silver band he walked over and placed his hand on the other Hermoine and said "you will take this band and place it around the other Hermoine's neck and snap it together when I count to three."

Handing the band to the witch he motioned for the two to step up to each other.

"Place the bands around each other and await my count" Ar'Ron ordered.

You could see one of the Hermoine's struggling to disobey the order but she could not.

"On three...one...two...three" Ar'Ron said to the sounds of the two bands being snapped together.

Both girls froze in place not moving as magic flared around them and then they both collapsed to the ground.

Ar'Ron levitated both girls into beds next to each other and turned to face Mr. Granger. "Both girls are fine, when they wake up they will be linked and Hermoine can go join her year mates in classes" Ar'Ron explained.

Motioning for Ellisia to come over he told her to take the Hermoine that was under the prison bubble to the set of rooms set aside for her and to ward the door.

Walking back to the table he extended his hand to help Harry up before turning towards Mr. Granger. "Do you have any questions?"

"Not at the moment, should we plan on heading on back to our home then?" Dan said with some disappointment in his voice.

"Feel free to stay as long as you like until you are truly comfortable that your daughter is going to be all right" Ar'Ron told him.

"Talk to Minerva, she can make arrangements for you to travel back and forth from your house each night so both of you can continue your practice without hardship" Harry told the man.

"Thank you" Dan told both of them as he shook their hands.

Taking Harry's hand Ar'Ron said, "I do believe there is a hot tub calling for us Mel'Anin"

"I do believe so, shall we?" Harry said with a cross between a smirk and a smile.

As they walked out they could hear the chuckles from Dan granger.
