Title: Firework
Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairings: LuciusxSeverus, mentions of past/unrequited NarcissaxRegulus, one-sided HarryxDraco?, mentions of TedxAndromeda
Summary: A little AU after the First Task for all his apparent forgiveness of Ron for abandoning him, he's incapable of forgetting. The Triwizard Tournament forced Harry to grow up and changed the way he looked and things as well as what he focused on. Complete AU from the day of the Third Task. Harry doesn't want to participate in the Tournament; he has said he has no wish to win. What happens when he refuses to search for the Triwizard Cup?
A/N: The title is in reference to the song by Katy Perry. If fit the story so well when it came on the radio after I took a dinner break while writing. Prior to that song playing this fic had no name. Its just a random story idea that I couldn't shake but it seems to be shaping into a nice storyline.
Sorry it too so long, it wasn't co-operating but here it is, a bit short but it has some development...
Chapter 21- hard truths and facing one’s fears
Remus swallowed a confidence-increasing potion, he then Apparated to the property that the pack owned.
A boy, rather tall for his age ran over, “Uncle Remus!”
He was playing with his pet Crup Arrow; there was Carys with a book.
Remus scooped up the boy, “What’s going on? How are you?”
Carys glared at him, “You try seeing your father dead and see how you take it.”
Remus sighed, “Sorry. I was thinking about present issues. Like how to keep the pack together.”
“Without dad that won’t happen. “ Carys scoffed.
Remus growled, “It will. We’re moving. All of us.”
Theseus frowned at him, “Why do we have to go away?”
Remus hugged him, “So bad people don’t hurt anymore of us. Where are the others?”
“Papa is talking to the mates and trying to get them to calm the pack down.” Carys said quietly.
“Where is Ian?”
“Over there.” Carys pointed.
Remus set the clinging boy down, “I’ll settle this.”
“Be careful. You may have to fight…” Carys warned, “Uncle Ian is mad at the world…”
Remus stalked over, his wolf rising. He shoved his fury at Sirius, his disgust at Ron, his horror at Corey’s murder, his annoyance at being ordered about by Lucius, and his worry for Harry at his wolf. It roared, furious and he growled, “Ian!”
The former Auror snarled, “What do you want Lupin?”
“A challenge. I want the pack. There will be no reprisals. We are going to take the pack somewhere safe. This is not going to escalate because of our response. We lost our alpha, but we will recover. We will put our pups first. That’s final.”
“I want blood. Someone has to pay for what happened to our Alpha.” Ian leapt at his throat.
Remus launched at him, shifting mid leap.
They growled, scratching, biting and rolling.
Blood flowed and there were cheers for both sides.
The loud noise of the fight brought the mates out of the house.
They ran.
Damocles shouted, “What is going on?”
“Remus is challenging Ian.”
“Damn it. What are you thinking! Ian you aren’t an Alpha!’
Remus roared, pinning Ian to the ground, biting his throat and cutting off his air, “Do you submit? Don’t make me kill you Ian. We need each other!”
“I submit!”
“By right I claim the rank of Alpha. This is my pack. I claim Corey’s pups and mate as mine. I will kill anyone who touches them. We are moving. Pack!” Remus snarled.
Jaime knelt at her mate’s side and tried to heal him.
“I will wear this. As a sign of that I lost.”
Remus growled, “You did. I want out of here today. Move.”
His wolf was still raging and Remus had to force Moony back into submission.
Carys glared at him, “I don’t need a new dad.”
Remus snarled, “Someone has to take you in. As the new Alpha, I own what Corey did. By pack law that includes you three.”
“Carys go pack. Remus and I need to talk.”
Remus stepped towards Damocles.
“Moony I am going to talk to Remus. We have to settle things.”
Remus shifted back, “What?” he snapped crossing his arms.
“Listen here Remus. I loved Corey. I gave up everything for him. I don’t want to be with anyone else. I don’t care that the previous Alpha’s mate and family belongs to the new Alpha. We’ll come with you because we have no place to go. We’ll live under your protection. I will allow you to discipline the pups because as Alpha it is your right. You will not take me to your bed. I don’t want to be tossed from alpha to alpha. I am a person with feelings.” Damocles glared back.
Remus scowled, “Discuss this with me when I’m not high on a fight.”
“Fine. Just don’t try to take me to bed. You’ll have to kill me first.”
Remus reached over to touch him, “I wouldn’t do that. Carys and Theseus need you. I won’t send her to Hogwarts. Not while Dumbledore is there. I won’t put another pup in danger. I already pulled Harry out. He was viciously attacked and will need time to recover.”
“Where will he attend?”
“Durmstrang or Beauxbatons. Draco is insisting on going to Durmstrang.”
“I’d like to send Carys to Beauxbatons…it’s closer…”
“That will be fine.” Remus shrugged.
“Then we’ll move. I’ll pack.”
Remus cast a Patronus, and instructed it to go to Lucius. “Find Lucius Malfoy. Tell him the pack is packing. We should be ready to go in a few hours. I won.” He sent a similar message to Severus.
XoooooX
Draco had convinced Harry to come down to breakfast.
Harry was not happy to see guests.
Sitting at the table, calm as a flobberworm was Mind Healer Ted Tonks.
Harry scowled.
Draco stepped towards him and gently squeezed his hand, “I’m glad you came down.” He whispered in his ear.
“Morning Harry.” Severus said politely, pretending that this was normal.
“Good Morning.” Lucius smirked.
“Why are you here?” Harry mumbled.
“Well I finished viewing your memories and consulting with Annie. We’ve come up with a healing plan for you. I would like to start immediately.” Ted said jauntily.
“What if I don’t want to discuss it?” Harry glared
Draco sighed, “You need it. You think you are ugly. I don’t like that. You don’t think you are worthy of me- which I strenuously object to. You have little self-worth so I agree. You also blame yourself for what Weasel did. You think I ought to hate you when I don’t. You take far too high a doze of sleep potions and suffer from nightmares. You need help. You have depression and that must be treated so you have learn to be happy.”
Harry grumbled and picked at his food.
“You need to take nutrition potions Annie orders and the potions that I proscribe for you to combat your depression.”
“You think I’m crazy.” Harry glared.
“Not at all.” Ted said firmly, “I think you are strong but you need help rising above your guilt. You need to grow past this. You are strong but you need help. It is never shameful to admit you need help. Draco is good for you but you need to get well for your own sake.”
Harry sighed, “Fine.”
XoooooX
After breakfast, they retired to a cosy parlour and discussed when Harry’s appointments would be, how long they would be, why he needed to take certain potions and what Lucius, Severus, Draco and Remus could do to help him.
XoooooX
After Ted left, Severus discussed their marks and how they could improve as well as discussing how to start lessons to take harder OWL equivalents as well as discuss transferring.
XoooooX
Harry refused to discuss transferring to a new school but didn’t argue about home lessons to prepare for Owls.
Draco sighed he was being stubborn again. They would have to pick their battles carefully…
What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
A/N: I'm sorry that this fight was partially inspired by La Push wolf fights from Twilight. I don't like Twilight but it was a decent depiction of a dominance fight. Anyone wanting to be added to a email list for Firework please comment and Ill try to make sure to sent a email to those readers.
unneeded - Harry will need support during his healing but he will have it. Magical Britain will be in for a shock when Harry graduates and decides his future path. As for Remus he seems to have stopped his whinging but we'll see. However I think it will be Draco who shocks them the most....
snapelust - Harry's lack of mental healing is due to my forgetfulness. Ted is trying to come up with a treatment plan. He was watching the Dream Orb and did his best to analyze what were nightmares based on real events and which were twisted. I offer no excuses why Severus and Remus didn't push Ted harder. They felt his training and his study of the dream orb would help him devise treatment. Draco is not really being trusted by the adults as Harry's sole treatment for his depression and other issues. Draco is merely trying to help Harry as best he can. As for the Magical eye that is a possible option but that must be Harry's decision. It cannot be forced on him. if he chooses a magical eye to replace his ruined on then he ought to be allowed to choose what sort of eye he wants. However, I don't see Harry choosing one like Mad-eye's....
delia cerrano - I don't know if Sev could brew a potion to heal Harry's eye but he may try. Harry need protecting and someone to lean on. Maybe I am hard on Harry but he'll be okay eventually I promise. He's got Slytherins protecting him so he'll be safe. Draco will keep him from being a pawn or a plaything- he loves him to much to let him be used.
steve - I dislike Ron as a character. He turns on Harry and assaults him verbally in Canon. He has a temper canonically as well as in my story. He's violent and he hates Malfoy. He thinks he has the right to dictate who Harry's friends are and who he can love. There are people like that. Whether that is truly monstrous is up to the interpreter.
