Carmen put her phone back in her pocket, she was about to start on the chocolate cake in front of her when she noticed it was deathly silent. |
"What? Is there something in my teeth or something?" |
"What was that contraption?" Minerva asked. |
"My phone?" Ok intel said that they didn’t have much in the way of technology, but this is just ridiculous. |
"And?" Minerva questioned again. |
"It’s a phone. It allows you to make calls over long and short distances. The call that I just took was from my Uncle Carl. He’s currently in Washington D.C. at the moment. He just wanted to check on me. For some reason people think that I’m always getting into trouble." |
"As in America?" Minerva asked astounded. |
Carmen looked at her like she was crazy. "Yes." |
"This is a first generation satellite phone, which bounces a signal from various satellites to get a connection. They’re still working the kinks out, but I was chosen to be a tester." She said proudly. |
"What’s a sattetile?" Septima asked. |
"Wow. You people really are still in the dark ages." She noticed all of the students and staff looking at her. "We’ll talk about it another time." |
Then that feeling came again. Oh hell no he better not have... "Harry James Potter!" |

Harry was sitting there after Carmen came in trying to blend into the table. She looked exactly like she did in his vision. And she was going to kill him. She called this place a death trap, and it should be turned into a haunted house instead of a school. |
"Harry James Potter!" Oh crap. |

Carmen turned into a blue flame and flashed to the other side of the table, reappearing as herself. "Get your ass out here now so I can hug the stuffing out of you, and then strangle the life out of you! |
Resigned to his fate, Harry sighed and stood. George tried to stop him. "What are you doing?! She could be dangerous!" |
Harry sighed again. "She’s not. At least not to me." He removed himself from George’s grasp and made his way forward. "Hey Car." |
Carmen turned back towards the Head table and summoned her coat. Once it was on, she reached for Harry and grabbed both sides of his face and stared into his eyes. "Harry." She grabbed him in fierce a hug. |
And they vanished. |

The Great Hall was in Chaos. |
"All students are to report to their dorms immediately." The Headmaster saw Harry’s friends about to protest. "And I do mean all students. We will find him. Now go." |
"Come on guys. He seemed like he knew her. I’m sure he’s fine." Ron hedged. |
"Fine. Fine. YOU’RE SURE HE’S FINE!!" Fred roared. "Some woman we don’t know just...whatever the hell she did, just left with our boyfriend and you think he’s FINE?!" |
"Fred. Feel the magic in the ring. He’s fine. Just overwhelmed. Come on let’s go wait for him in the common room." George took his twin by the shoulder and led him out. |
Once the rest of the students had left, Minerva swung on Professor LaVaunt. Who was sitting calmly with his eyes closed. "Where the hell did your sister take my student?!" |
"If you would be quiet for a moment, I will tell you." He said. His voice was calm as his eyes fluttered open. "They’re at the Black lake." |
"What are they doing out there?" Albus asked. |
"Talking. And don’t ask me about what. It’s not my story to tell." |
"As Under Secretary to the Minister of Magic I demand to know what is going on. What kind of...creature is that?!" |
"Be quiet Delores." Minerva said. "Although I must admit to being curious as to what your sister is." |
Morpheus raised a brow. "She’s a witch." |
"Now Mr. LaVaunt you must admit that many of her talents are out of the norm." Septima stated. |
"For you perhaps, but not for us. Obviously, you know that we are not from the U.K." He waited for them to nod. "In the U.S., Mexico and Canada we start schooling at the age of five. We harness their accidental magic while helping them to control it. We usually receive a wand at the age of nine, in addition to that we ... |
"I would like to talk about the differences later, but right now I want to check on my student." Albus turned to walk out of the door. Minerva, Snape, and Morpheus followed him. |

Carmen had re appeared at the edge of the lake. She was still holding on to Harry as they both sobbed in each other’s arms. After a while they calmed down and looked at each other. |
"I never thought we would meet in the real world. How are you Carmen?" |
"I’m fine kiddo. Just so happy. I’ve got my big brother, and my little brother with me now. Come. Let’s get comfortable and talk, hm?" |
She set up the wards in Parseltongue, only allowing Harry, herself, and her brother through. She heated the entire dome that also protected them from the elements, and lit a fire just for good measure. Harry meanwhile conjured a black chaise lounger. Carmen laid down first and Harry laid down next to her. His back was ... |
"You know they’re probably freaking out right about now right?" He asked. |
"They sent all of the students to their common rooms. Your friends tried to protest, and Fred I think it was had a mini melt down. The youngest male ginger said that it appears that you knew me and said you were probably fine. That pink clad bitch accused me of being of creature blood, like that matters. Racist cunt ra... |
"How do you know all of that?" |
"My brother and I share a mind link. It happened by accident, I believe, when he rescued me when I was ten. A story I’ll share with you another time. Which will not be tonight. Damn! Thought we would have more time. They’re coming." |
"How long will you be here?" |
"A month. It’s my first vacation in a long time lil bro. I’m beginning to heal from what I experienced with your abuse, but I need to get away for a while. I hope you understand." She asked hesitantly. |
"More than you know sis. More than you know." He squeezed her hand. |
"They’re almost here. Before we go to bed, I want you to take me to your friends so that I can explain what you mean to me, and that I would never hurt you. Sorry about taking you out of the chow hall like that, but I don’t think that you wanted them to see us bawling like babies in front of them." She squeezed him tig... |
"Thank you for that sis. I already feel on display in this place." |
"We’ll talk about the ridiculous decision to come back to this death trap later. For now..." |
"Yes, for now. You’ll explain why I shouldn’t prank you until the end of time, for forcing me to even address that pink racist bitch." Morpheus walked into the sphere. |
"He’s the one Mo." |
"The child of the curse? You’re sure?" She raised a brow at him. "Of course you are. Bring down the shield. Someone notified his godfather. He arrived shortly after we did. He’s a bit unhinged I think." |
Harry groaned, got out of her arms and stood. He looked to see his professors and godfather trying to get into the dome. |
Carmen raised her hand outward and dissolved the shield while her brothers banished the furniture and the fire. |
Once the shield was down, Sirius stormed towards Carmen. Only to be blocked by Harry. "No Siri. She’s a friend. More like family. I won’t let you hurt her." Harry prayed to every deity that he knew that he would never have to take up his wand against his dad. |
"Pup what the hell is going on?" |
"Calm down Siri and trust me. Please." Sirius was staring at the woman, but then he looked at the pleading eyes of his son and instantly calmed down. |
Sirius reached out to hug him, and Harry relaxed. "Ok pup. Ok. I’ll listen." Cara’s lessons were apparently working. |
"I think we should take this back to my office. It is getting quite late and we still need an explanation of what is going on." |
They all agreed, however Harry wanted his lovers and his friends there. "I want Fred, George, Ron, Hermione, Neville, and Luna there." |
"I really must protest Harry." |
"Then I have nothing to say. Goodnight." |
"I could expel her from the castle." Headmaster Dumbledore was not happy at being called out like that. |
"Yes, you could of course. That is within your right. But don’t think for one moment that we would ever be separated in spirit. I’ve lost many things because of you, but I won’t lose her, Siri, or my boyfriends. Did you tell Sirius about that conversation you had with me?" |
"Minerva bring the requested Gryffindors to my office. Severus. Please escort Miss Lovegood." Dumbledore said hastily. |
"What conversation?" Sirius asked as they walked back to the castle. Sirius was completely ignoring the two behind them. The male seemed friendly enough, but something disturbed him about the female. |
They made their way to the Headmaster’s office, and extra seats were conjured for everyone. The Gryffindors were already there except for his boyfriends. When the door next opened Fred and George rushed in but were stopped by Harry putting his hand in front of him palm out. "Who called Sirius?" |
His friends all looked at each other. One ginger stepped forward. "I did." Fred said defiantly, with his head held high. He was only worried. He looked at George, who looked so disappointed in his brother. He told him how Harry would react to this. |
"Pup. He was just..." |
"I DON’T CARE!" A pulse of magic went out and a window shattered. |
George made to move towards him but was stopped by Carmen. "Stop." She said lowly and grabbed Harry by the back of his neck. "He was only trying to help. He loves you and you know that. You’re too used to having to do things on your own, that you forget that there are people who want to protect you now. You are not alo... |
Harry tried to be defiant in the face of her scolding as he looked at her, but eventually subsided. He still felt betrayed, but he knew that Fred loved him. |
"Why are we here Headmaster? Severus asked in a slightly confused tone, as he watched Luna Lovegood go and stand with the other students. |
Carmen nodded and gave the same explanation of how she got the curse that she gave to Harry while he was in his healing coma. |
"So you see Headmaster Dumbledore." Magic began to swirl around her. "I saw every punch. I felt every kick. Every hateful fucking word! Every time they spit on him or pissed on him. When they forced him to use the toothbrush he just cleaned the toilet with. His uncle fondling him. I felt the beatings, but also the emot... |
She tried to bring her magic back as she looked at her brother. Her breathing harsh. He rarely called her Ophelia. When he did, she knew that she was in trouble. Her eyes stared at his. |
"Enough." He said lightly. |
"Wait for me outside of the door. I’ll take you to our rooms." He said as he hugged her while she sobbed. He waited until she had calmed herself before he squeezed her arm. |
She turned to leave but turned again to Harry. "I’m sorry little brother. I just couldn’t...I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have revealed so much. I’ve been so angry for so long. So scared I wouldn’t find you in time. All of the what ifs. I’m so angry at all of them." She took a deep breath. "But I know better than to unleash m... |
She turned to Dumbledore. She watched as genuine sadness was on his face. The fat silent tears running down his cheeks. "You wanted to know. And now you do. I will never forgive you for what you put us through. But I hope that if it was necessary, that we could fight in battle on the same side if I’m needed. I don’t kn... |
"As would I. It would be an honour to fight beside you. I won’t even attempt to apologize to you both, because that will never be enough for what I have done." |
She turned to her brother. "We need to go big brother. Harry I’ll see you in the morning." Morpheus took his little sister by the hand and left the room. |
Minerva was silently weeping. But the real reaction that disturbed everyone was Snape. It wasn’t the fact that he looked angry. He always did. It was the look of disappointment that he leveled at his colleagues. "I trusted you." He turned to the door. "I have potions to brew." And he stormed out. There was half a bottl... |
"Harry." Fred began. |
"I know. Just. We’ll talk before our workout." Harry kissed him lightly on the lips. "Ron, Neville, Luna. Let’s get to bed." They soon left. |
Sirius left, because he was trying to hold onto his temper. |
George looked at his brother with such anger, that Fred violently flinched. "I told you didn’t I? You may be the oldest but right now my first instinct is to punch you. But I won’t. You’re my brother and I love you. Make this right." He took his brother by the arm and led him out of the door. |
"You make me sick." Hermione whispered, turned and left the room with tears in her eyes. |
With Hermione gone that left Albus and Minerva. |
"May the Goddess have mercy on my soul." Minerva murmured, while she left to make her way to her quarters. Tears flowing down her face. |
Albus was left alone. Weeping silently for the man that he had become. |

"I need to dance." Carmen said after she was shown around their quarters. She had set up her trunk in her room and she was comfortable here. Her big brother would take care of her. He always did. |
"I’m sorry brother. I almost lost control. I know you’re disappointed, but I tried so hard to be calm." |
Morpheus LaVaunt held his sister’s face in his hands. "I will love you until death, and even then I will love you. You’ve been under a lot of strain. It’s understandable that you lost control." |
She nodded. "I need to dance Mo." |
Morpheus sighed. "Great Hall?" |
