~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
22 year old Harry Potter was sitting in his personal rooms at Hogwarts going over his second year classes DADA papers when it happened. The air became chilled and there was a slight tinkling of bells before a woman with reddish brown hair, dressed in a pair of black pants and a white top appeared in front of him.
Setting his quill aside, Harry said, “I know apparating into the school isn't possible so that means you aren't an intruder and yet you aren't one of the normal spirits of the school..so who are you?”
“You mean a ghost.” She said with an unusual accent. “Anyway I can explain that, but right now I could really use your help...well I'm dead so there isn't any real helping me, but my sisters and nephews could use your help.”
“How do I know this isn't a trap? You'll have to forgive me for being a little skeptical.” Harry asked, already reaching for his wand.
“You can't know for sure, but they're going to die if they don't get any help and the demons have a shield up keeping their allies out.” She said, getting frustrated.
“Alright. Show me where they are and I'll do what I can.”
Giving a sigh of relief, the woman said, “Thank you. I can't appear to them because they aren't allowed to see me, but if you tell them that Prue sent you then they shouldn't give you a problem.”
Moving over to a map that Harry had spread out on one of his walls with notes pinned to different areas, he had planned to use it to show his students where certain curses originated, Prue pointed to a place located in the states.
“They're here. San Francisco, California in the USA. They're in a cemetery inside of a crypt with Brenton on the outside.” Turning to face him, Prue said, “I can't thank you enough for doing this.”
Smiling, Harry said, “Well my friends do always tell me I have a 'saving people' thing.” With that he disappeared with a crack, hoping to arrive in time to save Prue's family.
He arrived to find a red haired woman using blue balls to throw the fireballs a black and red skinned demon was throwing at her and the two downed dark haired women behind her. Knelt down beside the two hurt women was a messy, brown haired man with a glow on his hands as he held them over the injuries.
Using his wand, Harry froze the man, which caused the fireball the red head had thrown back to hit him and cause him to start burning before he burst apart, leaving only a pile of ashes on the floor.
As the first dark haired woman rose up and the red head turned on him, Harry held up his hands and slowly approached them.
“Besides the obvious injuries is everyone okay?” He asked.
“Who are you and what are you doing here?” The dark haired woman asked as the red head looked ready to attack.
“My name is Harry Potter and your sister, Prue asked me to come and help you.”
With narrowed eyes, the dark haired woman asked, “Oh yeah? Did she say when she'd be home then?”
“Considering it was her spirit that appeared I'd say never...sorry.” Harry said, hoping that didn't sound as unfeeling and rude as he thought it did.
“So you aren't lying. You'll have to forgive me, but we can't be too trusting.” The dark haired woman said as the man helped the other woman off the ground. “My name's Piper and this is my sister Phoebe, Paige and my son Chris.”
“I hold nothing against you. I know what it's like to have to be a little suspicious.”
“Aunt Paige why don't you bring mom and Aunt Phoebe home so dad can make sure I didn't miss anything and I'll bring our guest to the attic and start explaining.” Chris said, locking eyes with Harry.
Nodding, Paige grabbed onto her sisters and disappeared in a flurry of blue balls.
Looking at the only remaining person in the room, Harry felt like he had found his future as he shared a knowing smile with the man...it seemed like he agreed.
