(I’m thinking)
“I’m speaking”
Pairing: Yaoi M/M, Harem – top Harry x bottoms Draco / Cedric / Theo / de-aged Severus / Tom (TMR)
Last Time
Argus, who was cleaned up and wearing simple robes, sneered as he snuffed the air coming through the open castle window “Sirron, tell the master we have company. It’s the eavesdropper and his friends” he yelled to the younger dark haired man with gold eyes …
XXXXXXXXXX
“this place is busy” Theo muttered as he followed Severus, Tom and Draco into Knockturn Alley, which was filled with bustling people.
Severus glanced at the hesitant people exploring the street “the lord of the light has been dragged through the mud so everything he claimed to be evil is being called into question. People are branching out … things will change fast with the minister being removed as well”
“what did the paper say about that?” Draco asked realizing he got distracted by the article on Ryan.
“it confirmed the minister’s involvement with Dumbledore and set Dumbledore’s and the Order’s execution dates. Boring stuff really” Tom commented a little surprised that he wasn’t more intrigued by this development, but then he did have his mind on other things namely a certain necromancer.
“so the investigation is stopping?” Draco asked curiously as he followed his godfather into a clearing where they can take off on their brooms.
“not by a long shot, but all the crap they dug up after just the first day is enough to put them all up for execution so it’s seems silly to keep them alive any longer. Even Granger is getting the Dementor’s kiss and they all go tomorrow” Tom explained and they stopped in the clear at the edge of the alley.
“shame really, I would’ve liked a moment alone with each of them” Severus sneered as he considered more painful deaths that will fit the punishment much better than getting the soul sucked out of them “too bad though the execution should be fun to watch”
“quite right … we’ll take off here” Tom said as they came to the tree line at the end of the alley. They mounted their brooms and took off into the sky with a strange sense of excitement about meeting the real Harry.
Theo blinked as the tower of a castle appeared in the distance ”is that it?”
“that’s Sun castle. We need to find the castle near it. Lucius said it will be lower a have a domed tower” Tom said as he searched the area for any sign of the second castle.
“over there!” Draco called out as he spotted a blue tower with a dome, but as they got closer they noticed a person standing in the courtyard waiting for “they know we’re here” Draco said and winced as he recognized the person as Argus Filch, but now the caretaker had glowing gold eyes and fangs.
“well if it isn’t the eavesdropper … the master has invited you to have breakfast with him and his mate” Argus said as they touched down in front “I’ll be taking your wands and brooms”
Severus saw Draco about to argue and gave him a sharp nudge with his elbow to keep him from getting himself into even more trouble “of course … how did you know we were coming? It looked like the wards were down for maintenance” Severus commented trying to hide the anxiety he felt as they handed over their brooms and wands to the man they always thought was a squib and not dangerous flesh eating demon.
“we are demons you know” the four humans stiffened and turned to look at the young man who appeared behind them and was also sporting golden eyes “my apologies. I didn’t mean to startle you. My name is Sirron though you knew me by another name, and to answer your question Severus we have very strong senses so it wasn’t hard to smell you coming. Now come, the master is waiting” Sirron said and lead them into the beautiful castle.
Tom looked down at the lovely blue tinted stones under their feet “this place is amazing”
“indeed and it looks like the furniture has been cleared out” Severus commented as he looked around at the second empty living room they passed.
“all the dark items had to be swapped out. Obviously both castles had to be as safe as possible if they’re going to house children. The master is staying on the first floor to ensure everything is handled properly before returning to his home” Sirron said with a knowing smirk that peeked the Slytherins’ interest.
“where does he really live?” Theo asked as they walked through a pair of French doors and onto a patio.
“I live at the Flamel manor” the Slytherins finally noticed the young man with silver hair and violet eyes seated at the large circular glass table holding a newspaper. It was Ryan “you can leave Sirron. I’m sure these people aren’t here to cause trouble” Ryan said as he set the newspaper aside. After Sirron bowed and left Ryan looked at them “please have a seat before the food gets cold. Cedric should be here in a moment”
Severus felt his heart race as he sat down across from the smartly dressed young man with sharp violet eyes “the Flamel manor you say? How did you get that manor Harry? It’s not a Black or Potter property”
“as far as anyone needs to know my name is Ryan Peverell. After all Harry Potter is dead correct?” Ryan said with that smirk that made the Slytherins shiver “I wouldn’t accept any other place to raise my family. The irony is just too great to ignore”
Draco let his curiosity get the better of him again “what the hell does that mean?” he snapped rudely making his godfather give an exasperated sigh.
The dark lord swatted the Malfoy on the back of the head “you should be behaving after what you did”
While Draco seemed to stubbornly keep quiet Theo blushed and spoke instead “we are sorry about kidnapping Cedric” he said sincerely and didn’t touch the food in front of them even though the delicious smells were a harsh reminder that they all skipped breakfast in their rush to see Ryan.
“it’s quite alright. As you can see Cedric is fine” Ryan said directing their attention to the Hufflepuff who limped into the outdoor breakfast area wearing only a white button down shirt that was too big for him and glowing like he had the best fuck of his life. Clearly Ryan spent a great deal of time soothing Cedric after the kidnapping “morning love, how are you feeling?” Ryan said as he stood up to pull out the chair next to him for Cedric to sit down in. That sweet interaction combined with Cedric’s shameless lack of dress and the steamy kiss they shared after Cedric was seated told the guests everything they needed to know about how close the two were. A fact that left the Slytherins feeling a bit jealous to say the least.
“much better. The morning sickness has lessened so I can eat something today, but only something plain” Cedric said not really acknowledging the other people at the table until after touching his lower stomach pointedly as Ryan placed a couple pancakes and a slice of toast on his plate“it has been a while Draco, Theo” Cedric commented with a smug twinkle in his eyes definitely silently gloating about getting Ryan first.
Draco twitched “you’re pregnant?” he said silently pouting, but the pinch from his godfather under the table reminded him of his manners “congratulations, how far along are you?”
“two weeks along” Cedric said and shot Severus a knowing look before eating his meal making the professor question whether or not the Diggory should have been in Slytherin instead of Hufflepuff.
“we’re setting up the nursery in the Sun castle to get some ideas for our own child’s bedroom. Please everyone eat” Ryan offered politely as he finally served himself “I’ll explain what I meant by irony … but first I’m curious as to how you reversed your age professor. I know you didn’t use the Philosopher’s stone for your soul is not letting disconnecting from your magic. In fact Tom, I’m happy to see you haven’t used the stone beyond that one time to get your body back”
“unlike many I respect magical artifacts especially ones that mess with life. Besides foolishly breaking my soul I never disrespected magic” Tom said seriously knowing that lying to Ryan would be dangerous considering they still aren’t aware of what he knows and he really wanted to be on Ryan’s side. Especially after seeing that kiss ….
Severus smirked as his godson twitched in annoyance for not getting his question answered yet and it seems Ryan was doing this line of questions to deliberately make Draco wait (his impatience will be the end of him. It serves him right for being rude earlier) Severus thought suspecting that any rudeness especially towards Cedric will have a consequence and this waiting was Draco’s punishment “I used an old potion that no longer exists”
“the Hourglass Potion?” Ryan offered curiously as he politely ate.
The potion master’s eyes widened “yes, how did you know?”
“you didn’t say you invented it and it’s the only potion I know that fits those qualities. You may not realize it, but Argus was an excellent teacher in potions. It’ is perhaps the only subject he knew enough to actually teach me since it is a topic shared by both humans and demons” Ryan explained
“speaking of teachers” Tom said before taking a bite of bacon and swallowing “I’m curious as to what Umbridge did to earn your wrath”
Ryan gave that very sexy sadistic smirk “she had the nerve to force me to use a blood quill during my detention with her. one small stroke was all I needed to know what it was and I refused to use it. She would’ve started screaming at me if Sirron didn’t toss her off the tower”
Theo shyly looked up into those violet eyes “if Agrus was hiding as the caretaker who was Sirron? He implied he met us before”
“S-I-R-R-O-N, reverse the letters” Ryan said casually and continued eating as they thought a moment. He only paused a moment to chuckle at their shocked faces and why shouldn’t they be surprised? After if you spelled his name backwards you get Norris, as in Mrs. Norris.
Draco paled “oh … he’s not mad about calling him a stupid furball is he?”
“no, if anything he took it as a compliment towards his shape shifting skills. Ron’s nasty little habit of throwing rocks at him is what angered him” Ryan said with an amused chuckle “ah yes, that reminds me. I have been rather unfair to you all”
Severus raised an eyebrow “how so?”
“well I am here reading an article stating all those who wronged me have been dragged through the mud to the point where they’ll never recover and they will be executed. I got my revenge in many ways, but I took a bit from you. I will correct that if you join me for dinner” Ryan said with that smirk playing on his lips.
Tom shivered trying his best to hide his attraction to this Harry “who will be present at this dinner?”
“everyone” Ryan said simply.
“how will our guests be getting here?” Severus asked curiously, but Ryan just smiled ”you aren’t going to tell us, are you?”
“of course not, that would ruin the fun though when I say dinner I mean at the Flamel manor and this won’t be a dinner for the faint of heart” Ryan commented sending a warning glance at Theo and Draco who he knew weren’t the type to spill blood, but both were looking back stubbornly so it seems they wanted to go and Ryan wasn’t going to stop them.
“at least confirm that when you say ‘everyone’ you mean Arthur Weasley too. He better be after what he did to your parents” Severus sneered hating saying the man’s name
“what about Dumbledore’s old spy Peter Pettigrew? He betrayed your parents in the first place” Tom said pointedly wondering what happened to the double agent who chose to be loyal to the wrong side.
Ryan sighed “they will be present, but there’s no point in venting on them. Keep in mind I was an orphan with the power of a necromancer. Who do you think were the first ghosts I summoned despite my Aunt Petunia’s insistence that they never loved me? I assure you that I have always known and still no more than what the investigation has revealed thus far” he said and subtly warned the clearly concerned potion master to save this Petunia topic for anther time, which Severus obliged for now.
Tom winced in understanding since, as an orphan himself, he knew if he could summon anyone it’d be his parents and decided to change the subject before this becomes too personal too fast “do you really plan on creating an orphanage?”
“of course and with Dumbledore out of the way and everyone guilty from Harry Potter’s death it should be easy” Ryan said calmly as he finished his meal.
Severus poked his scrambled eggs as he pondered an option he hoped will be accepted “if you need a potion professor I could fill that position” he said willingly letting go of his desire to own an apothecary to help Ryan.
“you utterly despise teaching” Cedric said bluntly as he nibbled at his toast.
“I won’t deny that, but I was still a good teacher. No one died on my watch unlike any other potion professors” Severus said with a slightly clipped tone.
“the answer will have to be no. This orphanage and school will not have dangerous brewing so your rather harsh teaching style won’t be needed. What this school does need is an apothecary to work with the caretaker and to fill orders for potions the infirmary. After all I was serious about no brewing in the school so I need to get in touch with someone willing to fill that role” Ryan remarked pretending not to notice Severus’s eyes go from hurt to practically sparkling. He also didn’t miss the interest in Draco’s eyes, which was mixed with annoyance since the ‘irony’ point from earlier was still not clarified …
“if I’m right about this dinner should we eat before and transfigure ourselves” Tom said and immediately started mentally going through the worst ways to torture someone .
“not being there to eat is the whole point. You can bring guests too, but make none of you are recognized” Ryan said.
Theo wasn’t sure what to say to that so he looked at Cedric “how did you meet Ryan or I guess it was Harry then?”
“I knew Harry just like you two … for the first few years he was just another peer and then the last round of the Tri-wizard Tournament happened. I was nearly at the end when I saw Harry being threatened by a man who was clearly not another contestant” Cedric smiled at Ryan “I went to help, but the I saw Harry dodge a killing curse and slash the man’s stomach wide open with a cutting curse and just watched the man slowly die. In a last ditch effort to live or something the man took out a regular knife and stabbed Harry in the heart”
Draco gaped in shock “didn’t that kill you or at least hurt?”
“at the time my soul was in this body and I was taking the exams as Ryan so Harry Potter was being run by blood magic so the corpse wouldn’t die unless I said so. As for pain nothing is as painful as digging a horcrux out of your own head, which is where you, Tom, left one until I put it in the locket for you to absorb … I believe Dumbledore saw it when he left me at the Dursleys and that’s why he has been so fixated on you” Ryan commented and Tom blushed sheepishly not realizing he made that mistake.
”anyway Argus appeared and broke the man’s neck and Harry carelessly pulled the knife out of his chest as if it was nothing, which could only be done if his body was kept alive by blood magic. My family was neutral and dedicated to Necromancers in the old days so I knew there was a necromancer involved by the stories I was told. I was his from then on … I’m going to bed” Cedric yawned and decided to walk back into the castle accidentally, or maybe on purpose it was hard to say which, but either way the Slytherins all saw a trickle of cum go down the Hufflepuff’s leg and were even more envious.
XXXXXXXXXX
Dumbledore shivered in his dank cell as a dementor floated by. He could hear those who helped him in his throughout all his plans involving Harry Potter whimper in fear and he honestly didn’t give a shit. Those fools were just pawns so they didn’t matter, but he did! Dumbledore was stunned that he was being treated like a common criminal and no one beyond that half giant even defended him! All of his actions were for the common good and to keep the magical world on the right path, but that meant nothing to these fools! Who cares if that one boy died as long as they all knew who was there to guide them, which as far as Dumbledore was concerned was himself!
Just as he was considering how to get out of this cell to clear his name he heard a click and looked up “Arthur-”
The Weasley shushed him and continued opening the doors to all the cells “quickly everyone, I have a portkey to take us to somewhere where some people want to help us” Arthur whispered as everyone from the few family members there to the Order and Dumbledore gripped each other so they wouldn’t be left behind in Azkaban.
“this is the Flamel manor” Dumbledore said relived to see the ballroom of a familiar place and they were all hopeful for the dancing people inside to help …
