Malfoy couldn"t believe his eyes when he saw that Harry and Ryan were still at Hogwarts the next day, looking tired but perfectly cheerful. Indeed, by the next morning they all thought that meeting the three-headed dog had been an excellent adventure minus Hermione of course, and they were quite keen to have another one. In the meantime, Harry filled Ryan in about the package that seemed to have been moved from Gringotts to Hogwarts, and they spent a lot of time gossiping about what could possibly need such heavy protection well Ryan all ready knew but he was keeping that a secret for the time being Hermione was now refusing to speak to Harry but she was such a bossy know-it-all that he saw this as an added bonus. All they really wanted now was a way of getting back at Malfoy, and to their great delight, just such a thing arrived in the mail about a week later it was Harrys broom They left the hall quickly, wanting to unwrap the broomstick in private before their first cla.s.s, but halfway across the entrance hall they found the way upstairs barred by Crabbe and Goyle. Malfoy seized the package from Harry and felt it.That"s a broomstick," he said, throwing it back to Harry with a mixture of jealousy and spite on his face. "You"ll be in for it this time, Potter, first years aren"t allowed them."Professor Flitwick appeared at Malfoy"s elbow."Not arguing, I hope, boys?" he squeaked.
"Potter"s been sent a broomstick, Professor," said Malfoy quickly. "Yes, yes, that"s right," said Professor Flitwick, beaming at Harry. "Professor McGonagall told me all about the special circ.u.mstances, Potter. And what model is it?" "A Nimbus Two Thousand, it is," said Harry, fighting not to laugh at the look of horror on Malfoy"s face. "And it"s really thanks to Malfoy here that I"ve got it," he added.Harry and Ryan headed upstairs, smothering their laughter at Malfoy"s obvious rage and confusion.
"Well, it"s true," Harry chortled as they reached the top of the marble staircase, "If he hadn"t stolen Neville"s Remembrall I wouldn"t be on the team..."
"So I suppose you think that"s a reward for breaking rules?" came an angry voice from just behind them. Hermione was stomping up the stairs, looking disapprovingly at the package in Harry"s hand."I thought you weren"t speaking to us?" said Ryan. Hermione marched away with her nose in the air. Ryan had a lot on his mind for the cla.s.ses that day it was Halloween and everyone knows in the Harry Potter series this is an absolutely cursed day for Harry and there"s always trouble afoot and this trouble just so happened to be a 12 foot mountain troll he plans to help solve that problem honestly he would love to have a troll bodyguard for his kingdom but he doesn"t think that he can just get away with magically disappearing an entire troll after combat in front of the eyes of everyone without a series of questions being asked that he can"t really answer he could only sigh in defeat. After lunch he headed up to the common room with the girls while Harry took off with his broom Luna Daphne and tonks have become great friends since the whole dueling fiasco Luna was bubbly and friendly Daphne was a bit cold to other people besides her friends gaining her the nickname ice queen she was incredibly intelligent and good with politics and business her father had taught her from a young age about all of the things needed to be successful Ryan had asked her many questions about politcs and such in the wizard world he had almost zero political skills and he knew he needed them to manage his kingdom and help his economy when he started bringing in people she had been curious about Ryan and Luna since the hat incident and it wasn"t bad that Ryan got decent grades in almost everything minus history of magic he mostly read books on combat spells in that cla.s.s while Luna read books on magizoology he was thinking maybe she wanted to become a magical vet when she was older. tonks had a fun loving personality and wanted to be an auror and Luna told her about her martial arts and spell practice with Ryan she was instantly curious and with Ryan always helping her in potions much to her embarra.s.sment she felt comfortable around them Ryan had decided to have her start exercising with them in the mornings and she happily agreed. he was going to show them his trunk in the boys room and stumbled across Neville that poor boy doesn"t have pretty much and friends Ryan thought sadly he knew Neville would be a great friend later in the stories for Harry so he decided hey what the h.e.l.l why not help him a bit. "hey Neville" he said startling the poor boy. "ah h.e.l.lo Ryan what are you guys up to?" he was curious about what the girls where doing here in the boys dorm Ryan explained about showing them his trunk and invited him along and he happily agreed he was curious about such a cool trunk. like I said before all boys love neat clubhouses. he set up his trunk next to his bed as the girls and Neville looked on enviously. he showed them his library which shocked Daphne he knew Hermione would probably explode when she sees this place it was cozy enough for 20 people to study comfortably it had enough s.p.a.ce for 150k books and the shelves where filled he had a nice Alienware desktop on his desk with a nice gaming chair the magical children where curious about the electronics and he had to explain how they worked around magic he explained about elves cleaning everything and they all pretty much facepalmed. he told them they are welcome to study with him anytime they like they all agreed to some study sessions he almost had more books than the school library. showed them the gym he had and asked Neville if he wanted to work out with them and practice magic he agreed after some prompting from Ryan tonks was all for it Daphne not so much but he will get there they were excited for the pool tho. he showed them his open area with the gnome village which was growing strong they have learned how to use fire and cook basic things and the squirrel mounts are coming along nicely they have upgraded their gear to tree bark armor I"m so proud of them. The other kids noticed the gnomes training in martial arts and looked at me funny besides Luna who was used to it. after that I showed them around my apartment Neville and the girls were all jealous about the private bathroom they all had to fight in the mornings for showers with everyone else in the dorms Luna only smiled. I introduced them to pizza soda and call of duty which Neville was strangely good at all in all it was a good day to just chill.
