The Trials of Fate

Chapter 12

Haven pov

I find my name and next to it is Cedric Diggory. My, my, my,  Fate you've done it again. I stand next to the boy with sparkling brown hair.

"Ok now that you have all found your buddy I will hand out the bracelet pairs. After you get your set you may head to your room" She hands them to the third years. After a while Cedric gets our set we walk upstairs to find our room.

We find the door that has our names on it and walk in.

"So we will be buddies for the whole year. Feel free to ask me questions. I am still friends with my first year buddy." I nod and he hands me my bracelet. As he hands it to me sparks fly. He looks at me in surprise and I awkwardly chuckle.

"So do you know what that means?" He shakes his head. "Well have you ever heard of chosen, soulmates or just mates?"

"My mum told me stories about them. Stories that tell of lady magic granting a small amount of people mates to grant them safety and love. The tales also say to gain a chosen you must go through a great amount of trials often facing abandonment. It also tells that they have a great amount of power that they need others to help control."

"Well those tales are true. You are one of my chosen."

"But how do you have a chosen? Surely fate wouldn't have given you trials like that?"

"Well first off I have more than one chosen. The first of my chosen that I knew thinks that it is because I have more than one creature. As for how I have chosen that is a tall tale. First, I had some one try to kill me as a baby. Then, I was abandoned by my family in favor of my older twin brother. Next, the relatives I was left with brought me to America with them and abandoned me in a theater. Also, my adoptive sister wished away her half-brother to the goblin king, I accidentally tagged along. And most recently I got bit by a vampire."

He sat there in shock before saying anything. "Wow. I'm sorry you had to go through that. So how many chosen do you have? How many have you met? Do you know who they all are? What creatures are you?"

"Well at the moment I have four but with my luck fate may have other plans for me. I figure that because up until two days ago I had three." He nods with his eyes wide. "I have now met three of my chosen and yes I know who they all are there is a test for it. As for my creatures I am a complete werewolf, an elemental fae, a demon of darkness and a turned vampire."

"So you do have a chosen for each creature. Who are our other mates? What is a complete werewolf?"

"A complete werewolf is a werewolf that can change at will and although forced to change on full moons have control of their minds. Our other mates, my other chosen are Jareth the goblin king, death and Tom Marvolo Riddle aka Lord Voldemort."

"Seriously, but they are all bad."

" Actually Jare and death are just doing their jobs. Jare was elected by the high fae to take care of the wish aways and death is well death. I don't know much about Tom but I know he lost his body saving me so he can't be all bad." I say with a shrug.

"He saved you? But he tried to kill Harry Potter?"

"Well about that, he actually didn't."

"How do you know?"

"I was there."

"What?!"

" So Harry Potter is my twin brother and although Tom was there to kill one of us he didn't. He touched my hand and felt the spark. He was about to pick me up and leave when Dumbledore arrived. He told Tom that the prophecy was fake and that he created it to get more power. Then he shot the killing curse at me but Tom blocked it. A bit still got through and hit me connecting a bit of soul with my body. After Tom died the old man caved the bolt into my brother head with a cutting curse and left."

"So Dumbledore is the bad guy, your the real boy who lived and the potter's are bad people?"

"Pretty much."

"Ok let back track what does being your chosen mean and what is the difference between chosen and mates?"

"Well being a chosen means that you were chosen by magic to protect and love a specific person. The person who has a chosen is aways the submissive in the relationship. Mates are in correlation to creatures. All creatures have mates. Chosen are mates but have special powers and requirements. Like if they are mated to those they were chosen for they can talk in each others minds and use each other powers and magic. But if you are a chosen and do do not protect and provide or you cause harm to the one they were chosen for they will die and be replaced with a new chosen. Mates find each other through eye contact and chosen find each other through skin contact."

"I never knew it was that complicated."

"Yeah now we should go to sleep we have much to do tomorrow." He nods before gesturing for me to come over to him. I walk over and he pulls me into his bed.

"I figure you would feel safer if we shared a bed." I nod and snuggle in to his chest. He kisses my head and we drift off to sleep.
