“I promise if I’ll be more than twelve hours I’ll give contact on my pin,” Harry told Albus. “And then every four hours afterward until we come back. Relax. I’ve done all the studying on this guy, his camp, his plans, and even on him. He’s not as smart as he thinks he is. Tom made this guy look like a clown.” Harry said as he was tying his black militant style boots that Draco had picked out for them. “I have no idea why he insisted on boots. For pete’s sake this isn’t a fashion show.”

 

Draco and Hermione had decided that the four of them that were going to Thailand today in search of  Juinos Bellum Arta and the artifact should wear all black from head to toe since it would be nearing dusk when they arrived. Black ribbed sweater, black militant pants with large pockets on the sides, black over strap boots and even a black knit cap. Harry refused to wear a cap.

 

“They chose clothing appropriate to the climate,” Albus said. “Besides you keep getting your clothes burnt.”

 

“Me? You’re then one who….,” Harry decided not to argue but grin at his father. “Okay.”

 

“Remember what we discussed,” Albus said. Harry nodded at all they’d discussed the night before about the Rite of Hadus, a few extra sneak plans, and above all else Harry wanted to do was keep his three safe. Harry had the three little contact pins in his pocket. Harry had with Albus’ assistance the night before, transformed his three loyal’s contact pins into port keys for their protection. If Harry saw they were in trouble or injured he could send them back to Hogwarts in an instant without their knowledge. “You have the contact pins.” Harry nodded.

 

“Yes, I have everything,” Harry said as he threw his duffle bag out and up, turned it to light and drew it into himself. “I really need to get some of this stuff out of me. I might be getting full.” Albus wanted to laugh but couldn’t bring himself to do it. “Dad…” Harry said in the almost irritated way knowing Albus was worried.

 

“I’m not asking you to not go, Harry. But I do worry about you,” Albus argued just a bit on the way to the Dining Hall.

 

“I know you are,” Harry said slipping his hand into Albus’ as they walked. Albus opted to bring Harry over to him with an arm wrap. Harry did the same. They entered the Dining Hall in that manner. “I’ll see you again before we go,” Harry smiled. Albus nodded and they separated. The three loyal were at the table. Harry came to sit and notice they weren’t eating.

 

“Oh hell, not you all, too,” Harry said with a smile piling up his plate with food. “You have to eat today, you know. You’ll need your strength.” Harry said lightly as he started to eat as a starved man.

 

“How can you eat like that?” Draco asked in all nerves.

 

“Because I do this all the time. Remember me? Harry Potter? Chasing evil all over the planet for kicks?” Harry laughed and they were all still not laughing.

 

“That’s not funny,” Ron said finally taking a few slices of bacon.

 

“No, what’s funny is you three,” Harry laughed over eggs. “I love eggs.” Harry took a big mouthful and ate with a grin as he watched the three sit and be nervous. Harry shook his head at them as the ate. “Pathetic. You all were more brave at eleven years old than now. Come on, you guys. Nobody on this earth can even touch me today, man. I’m pumped as hell and ready to take down this mother fucker. He’ll be dead by tomorrow I guarantee it.”
