Present Mixed in the Past

Chapter 14| Plans

The Room of Requirements had been badly damaged during the fire in the War. The proceeding battle on the grounds had outed it completely to the world. The magic that allowed the Room to manifest as it had, was considered Dark despite it only being on the heavier Grey side, this meant the Room had to fall into nothing but memory. Feeling the magic that settled in the hidden room and seeing it once again, was wonderful. There was nothing like the first time, but it still was a wonder.

"It's wonderful to see it again." Neville gave a sigh of relief, smiling lowly.

The twins nodded, flopping onto a small couch. They then pulled the new Hufflepuff between them, causing a blush to form on his face. Harry chuckled, taking a seat in one of the spare armchairs. The four of them became quiet before the Boy-Who-Lived noticed a fireplace. He didn't really have a chance to say anything, it lit up and out walked was a silver-haired, dreamy girl.

She gave the group a sweet smile, skipping over to them and giving them all a warm hug. They all smiled and gave her a sweet squeeze. Harry lightly rubbed her head, his eyes racking over her to make sure that there weren't any injuries.

"I am fine." She hummed, soon sitting in the free chair. "What is the plan?" She tilted her head.

"No questioning?" Fred hummed, leaning forward.

She gave a bell like laugh, lightly tapping her eye.

"I am the new Goddess of Seeing." She hummed. "However, things are much fuzzier than one would think." She giggled with a closed eyed smile.

The three others blinked some while Harry laughed with a beaming smile. He remembered that only he was really close to Luna. She was too odd for their taste or understanding. Once he calmed down, and the others were able to get themselves to understand, he took on a more serious expression.

"Luna's right, we need to make a plan. We also need to find the other gods and help them remember if they believe it's all a dream."

The four nodded with the Seer giving them a distant look.

"Hermione is a Goddess." She hummed, her expression twisting in a sense of confusion and mild frustration. "There's one more, but I cannot see him... Too many wrackspurts..." She sighed heavily, glaring at the air.

Harry frowned a little, nodding.

"At least we know one other person is a God."

The twins groaned, George scowling some. He had taken the news the hardest when it all was outted. He even tried to make the Golden Boy his partner, and to give the money back! The raven-haired man couldn't take either offer.  He knew neither of them would've stolen from him, not purposely or maliciously anyhow.

"She's apologized, and she's become a Claw that's shy and quiet. I'm not saying to forgive her completely, but to at least give her a chance. Besides, she thinks all of this was just a dream, hating her now would be hating someone innocent."

The twins sighed, George's scowl only softening some. Harry sighed but didn't say anything else on the topic. They, especially George, had a right to be angry.

"Let's focus on making a decent plan." Everyone nodded on that. "First things first, is that we need to get Harry Potter away from the Dursleys, or at least Vermon."

"Only that whale?" Neville leaned forward some, looking at his friend closely. He then smiled softly. "You've helped those two realize their mistakes?"

"Before they could even make them. Aunt Flower is a depressed woman who's living with a violently angry person, and Dudley didn't really have any rules when growing up. These people are different from what I grew up with, Dudley has real friends and manners, while Petunia is trying to keep me safe the best she can." The old soul explained.
