Chapter 13- Wolves and Wings.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Remus stared at the two children sitting at the Gryffindor table with uncertainly. After they had made him swear the oath, the boy, who to his shock informed him his name was Harry Potter, had put away his sword which seemingly vanished into thin air the moment it was sheathed. Then refused to say anything about what had just happen when he tried to asked. Harry had calmly told him that anyone could hear them on the train and to shut the hell up or he going to be missing a limb when they arrived at Hogsmead. Remus didn't doubt the threat for a moment healing spell or not his throat still ached from that blade, it must have had some silver in it to still be causing him pain.
He listened with half his mind as the hat sung its song and the first years were sorted he had a feeling that his already complicated life was going to take a turn for the worst. He pulled his attention back to the feast as Dumbldore stood and made his announcements and the food appeared he stared at his plate blankly for a moment before beginning to eat.

The next morning Remus considered the note that a nondescript brown owl had just delivered to him.
Meet us in the forbidden forest where its closest to the lake.
The note wasn't sighed but he knew who it was from. He just hopped they were actually planning on explaining what the hell was going on and not just feeding him to the Acromantlas. He glanced over that the Gryffindor table and saw they were gone already and burned the note with a flick of his wand before getting up and heading outside. He took his time walking down to the lake thinking about what he knew. Harry was somehow a demigod, he wasn't really inclined to think that a dementor would speak only to lie about something that weird. However did this mean that Lily had cheated on James then? For some reason he didn't think so there had to be more to it then that. 10 minutes later he reached the far end of the lake and turned to head into the forest. A few hundred feet in a small clearing opened up in the trees the children looked up as he entered, watching him wearily.
"Hello." He said quietly the exchanged look and Harry huffed looking irritated as Hermonie stepped forward to speak.
"Hello Remus, I wish we didn't have to explain this too you. The risk that you'll tell and ruin everything is too much, but we don't have much choice at this point and you may be able to help us." She said tiredly Remus nodded.
"That dementor called you both Demigods." He said looking between them. "How is that possible? Why would you even be here if it was?" He asked Hermonie winced before speaking again.
"We're not here by choice and if anyone knew that we know what we are, well, we're dead." She said softly. "We're not even from this world, Dumbledore kidnapped us from out parents without being found we know he had help but not who did it." She smiled wryly. "The gods of this world seem to be a bit irritated the situation got by them, whoever helped Dumbledore is good." She said glancing up at Remus who's jaw was hanging open in stupefied surprise.
"You must be mistaken, Dumbledore would never..."
"Yes he would." Said harmonie cutting him off. "I saw the memory of what happened when he first brought us here in his pensive. He tried to get Snape to help him but Snape refused and tried to rescue us, he failed and had his memories erased." Remus just looked confused and rubbed his face in frustration.
"Ok back up, start from the beginning, and explain what the hell is going on!" He said an edge of desperation in his voice.
"Alright ill try to keep this simple. Me and Orion are the demigod children of Zeus and Poseidon. Some how or another, were not sure how, Albus Dumbledore kidnapped us from our parents and brought us to this world without being tracked. We know he had help from a god to do it, but not who. He attempted to get Severus Snape help him with us, but Snape refused to condone our kidnapping and tried to rescue us from him and subsequently had is memories altered. Last year I was called to the Headmasters office for some reason but he had to leave for a bit and asked me too wait. I noticed a reflection coming from a cabinet and seeing as Orion curiosity is apparently contagious I checked it out. I ended up finding a pensive and saw a memory, namely the one of Snape trying to get us away from Albus. We've been working on escaping from here and getting home ever since. Dose that sum it up well enough for you?" She asked with a raised eye brow.
"Um,yes" Answer Remus weakly as his mind turned over these revelations in his head. If this was true then everything he had even though about the headmaster was a lie. He took a shaky breath.
"Remus?" Said Orion quietly staring at him intently Remus looked up his expression a bit haggard.
"Yes?" He replied
"I get the impression even for a moment that your going to tell anyone I will kill you." He said flatly staring at him unnervingly(1). Remus stared at him for a moment before nodding slowly he understood just how serious the situation was nothing was going to keep them from getting home. Most certainly not the random werewolf they had just met.
"I understand, but you said you needed my help? Why?" He asked looking between them.
"Well that pretty simple." said Hermonie with a shrug. "When Albus captured us he had to put a lot of binding spell on our magic, so that we would pass for mortal wizards. We've been able to remove some of them, but their hardly 3rd year spells you can help us get them off." She finished Remus rubbed his face with a tired look at them.
"I want to believe you two but,...I mean, you do realize that its far more likely that your wrong, and just got confused by the pensive, then this being true right?" Orion opened his mouth to argue when a flash of light behind him and Hermonie interrupted him. Remus stared opened mouthed at the man now standing behind the kids staring at him with golden eyes, he blinked uncertainly he could feel the power rolling off the newcomer in amounts he never would have thought possible.
"They are not lying." The creature said flatly glaring at him.
"Who the hell are you?" He asked confused the creature snorted.
"I am Horus." Was the annoyed response making Remus's eyes go wide and his jaw fall open with the power he was sensing he had no doubt the was the truth. Orion and Harmonie grinned up at the god.
"Thanks." Said Orion smiling Horus looked down at them faintly amused.
"If I hadn't come he would have told Albus the moment you were back at the castle." He answered calmly. Orion and Harmonie shot Remus sour looks as he gave them an apologetic look. "Right then, where were we?"...

Orion looked at Hermonie worriedly as remus walked away. "I still don't think it was a good idea to tell him the truth Mi." He said Hermonie sighed and shook her head. "He already knew enough to get us killed at least now he has a reason to keep it a secret." She replied with a shrug. Orion shook his head and headed for Hagrids cabin.
"I guess will find out, come on we've got care of magical creatures now." He said Hermonie threw one more look at Remus's retreating form before following.
"So how do you think hagrids going to do?" She asked Orion smirked.
"Hermonie this is Hagrid were talking about, Im sure it'll be...entertaining." He said Hermonie paused looking a bit wide eyed.
"Oh hell, I hadn't even considered that." She muttered making Orion laugh.
"How many Slytherins do you think will get eaten today?" He asked brightly making her roll her eyes. A few minutes later they arrived at Hagrids cabin. The rest of the Slytherins and the most of the Gryffindor were already there, with the obvious exception of Ron.
Hagrid appeared a few minutes later looking excited."Well glade ya made it! Iv got a great lesson for ya kids! Come on! Follow me!" He said and lumbered off into the forbidden forest the class stared after him for a moment unwilling to follow the half giant into the deadly forest Orion rolled his eyes and pushed through the group following Hagrid, Hermonie on his heals. The Slytherins not wanting to be out done by a Gryffindor followed as well the rest of the Gryffindors trailing along behind.
After a few minutes of walking they came out in a shady clearing containing a paddock. Hagrid looked around at the class excitedly.
"Well now that that your here we can get the beauties you'll be meeting today so just wait 'ere for a moment and ill be back." He said disappearing off into the woods. Orion looked around and seeing Ron had finally appeared, looking nervous, got a diabolical look on his face.
"I wonder what he's got today." He said conversationally to the Slytherins standing next to him. The boy gave him and odd look before following his line of sight and spotting the sweating Ron before looking back at him with a smirk.
"Indeed,one wonders." He drawled Orion nodded.
"Uh hu, The thing with Hagrid is the more he says its beautiful or sweet the more dangerous it is." He said several people glanced at him at this.
"Seriously?" Asked someone he couldn't Orion nodded.
"He has a pet Cerberus." He said nodding sagely. "He named it Fluffy." The class started at him for a second trying to figure out if he was just fucking with them or not when the bushes on were Hagrid had disappeared rattled. Everyone jumped watching the bushes as though some horrible creature was about to leap out at them. Hagrid walked back into the clearing a moment later leading 5 of the oddest creatures Orion had seen in a while. Their hind quarters were that of a horse while the front half looked like a massive eagle with the beak and talons to match. The entire class drew back as one leaving Orion and Hermonie standing by themselves. Orion looked at the class behind him with a raised eye brow. "Such bravery" He said drily.
" 'Ay 'arry! I haven't even asked for volunteers yet!" Said Hagrid happily. Orion just sighed and smiled at Hagrid who just beamed at him. "Right then!" He said releasing all the creatures into the paddock. "These here are Hippogriffs. Amazing creatures Hippogriff." He said grinning at the rather dubious class. "Now the thing you gotta know 'bout Hippogriffs is that their proud. Never insult a Hippogriff or it'll probably be the last thing you do!" He said before waving Orion over. "Now 'arry this is what ya want to do, now walk right up to him ya see, and ya bow alright? if he bows back then ya can touch him, if 'e don't, get back right quick 'cuse those talons are sharp a'right?" He asked looking intently at Orion who merely nodded and hopped the fence into the paddock. He eyed the five Hippogriffs that were staring at him before picking a steel grey one with black barring on the tips of its wings and on his crest with slightly lighter palomino markings in his hindquarters.

"Now i don know if ya want ta start wit' him 'arry dat be Kaze 'e can be a bit wild." which in Hagrid speak basically meant 'he'll eat you without a second thought and dance on your grave' But Orion didn't brake his stride walking up to Kaze not breaking eye contact staring him down and gave a half bow keeping his eyes on the Hippogriffs. To the entire classes amazement the creature bowed at almost the same time nearly beating orion to it.
" 'arry 'at was fantastic! Now why dontcha pet 'im? Just scratch the feathers on his neck 'e'll like that." Orion nodded and straightened stepping forward to scratch the massive creatures crest feathers. It closed its eyes in bliss reminding him of Hedwig and leaned into his hand, Orion smiled slightly and obligingly scratched a bit harder. Hagrid started clapping happily. "Fantastic 'arry! ya know, i reckon 'ed let ya ride 'im!" He said happily and walked over picking up the startled Orion and set him on the Hippogriffs back just in front of his wings. Kaze squawked in surprise and gave Hagrid an evil glare but didn't bite as Hagrid continued on blithely, not seeing the nasty look being directed at him "Now make sure ya don pull 'is feathers out 'e won't thank ya for that." He said and gave Kaze a swat to get him moving. Kaze screeched spreading his wings and took off running a few yards later he was airborne and Orion was in heaven.
He leaned to the left and Kaze obligingly banked that way circling around the castle leisurely for a few minutes as Orion got used to this form of flying the beating of Kaze's wings was definitely a lot different then the smooth flight of his broom. But as the flight continued a glint appeared in his eyes. "So Kaze how fast can you go?" He asked off handedly, the Hippogriff turned its head to look back at him with one eye. Orion could swear it was smirking at him before Kaze looked forward again and gave a tremendous screech and blasted forward diving between the castle towers and through one of the arches of the bridge faster then Orion had ever gone on his broom. Twisting into a barrel roll and wiping over the forest earning a gleeful yell out of Orion.
Back on the ground the class waited for Orion and Kaze to come back only to see the trees rattle as they blew past over head. Hermonie rolled her eyes hearing Orion gleeful yell. "We might as well continue its going to be awhile before those two land." she said to Hagrid who was smiling up at the two looping through the air at terrifying speeds.
"I reckon your right 'ermonie." He said looking around at the class. "Right 'den who wants to go next?" He asked.

(1) Orion may be seeming a bit um...vicious at times, but don't take that the wrong way he's just overprotective of his only family i.e. hermonie. and keep in mind that, like Thalia, he has inherited his father temper which without those spells Horus took off is beginning to come out more.
Quetzal- Kaze will be significant later on and buckbeak with turn up later
