The Boy Who Protected

New Hogwarts Professor

Naomi POV:

Today was the day we were returning to Hogwarts for another year. I was getting ready with Harry in our shared room, I could tell he was still thinking heavily on everything that's happened since the world cup last year.

"Harry, everything is going to be alright." I said gently placing my hand on his.

He jumped away quickly.

"Harry are you alright?" I asked concerned.

"I'm alright, I'm just on edge." He replied giving me a soft kiss.

"I know, that's why I want to help you anyway I can." I said bringing him into a tight hug.

"What would I do without you?" He said into my shoulder.

"Let's hope we never have to find out." I replied.

"Come on, let's go. The others must be waiting." He said taking my hand as we grabbed our trunks.

We made it downstairs and were met with the others as well as some members of the order.

"All accounted for. Let's move." Moody said.

We arrived at Kings Cross with the six of us being escorted by members of the order. I felt something rub against my free hand, I looked down and saw dad in his dog form. When we got closer to the platform dad had pulled away from us and moved into a room and transformed back into his human form. Harry, Aurora, Kaden and I rushed after him with Kaden's parents and Aurora's standing guard outside the room.

"Dad what are you doing!? You could be caught." I said.

"I had to see my daughter and Godson off didn't I? Besides, being cooped up in the house everyday is not good for me."

"We just don't want to see you thrown back into Azkaban." Harry said.

The three of us nodded agreeing with Harry.

"Anyways, I wanted to give you lot this." He said handing a photo to Harry and I. "It's the original Order of the Phoenix, you can see James, Lily, Rose, Grant, Thena, Apollo, Marlene, and myself." He said pointing out our parents.

"Mum." I whispered and felt a tear run down my cheek.

"You look exactly like your mother, Naomi. I could not be more proud of you." He said giving me a hug.

Harry went to hand the photo back to dad and he pushed it back to Harry.

"Keep it, I suppose you are the young ones now." Dad said before he kissed the top of my head and went back to his dog form. We exited the room and went through the barrier with dad next to me the entire time.

When we got to the platform, I saw families saying goodbye to their children who were going off to Hogwarts. I was getting many looks since I had a dog walking next to me but I ignored them and kept on my way. Moddy arrived with our luggage and loaded it onto the train with our help.

"Now remember, keep your heads down. Especially you, Barnes." He said turning to us. "And don't forget, all of you... Careful what you put in writing, remember to use code and the code names we've all been assigned. If there is a doubt, don't put it in a letter at all. Try to use Barnes' Thunderbird if she's willing to take the flight."

"It's been great meeting all of you." Tonks said giving us all a hug.

"Okay, quickly quickly." Mrs. Weasley said. "Write... Be good... If you've forgotten anything, we'll send it on... All of you onto the train now."

Before I could get on the train, I crouched down and put dads head against mine.

'Be good Naomi. Keep an eye on Harry and remember to write.'
