The Extinct Soulmate

Diagon Alley

Ron let out a sigh. Everyone was crowded around the table, in silence, looking worried. Some of the Weasley's were here, and by that, Molly, Fred and George (no they're not dead), and Ginny. Molly spoke first. "Do you think Harry will be ok?" She was voicing nearly everyone's thoughts, except for Ron, who knew his best friend well enough to know he was fine. And Fred and George. Because they're Fred and George. But other than that, even Sirius was worried.

"Molly," Hermione began, "I'm sure Harry is fine. He probably got caught up buying ice cream. His inheritance was probably a blue whale or something, he never stops eating." Everyone (except from the few who were fine) let out a soft sigh. She was right. Again.

A rush through the window brought an end to the awkward silence that had settled around the room. A silver stag stood proudly on the wooden table, floating lightly above the few sandwiches that were laid out for lunch. Everyone looked up, it was Harry's patronus.

It opened its mouth, ready to relay a message. "Sirius, I'm sorry I didn't contact you sooner, but my wand had been faulty. Had to get a new one, story for later. I'm ok, I'll be busy for the rest of this week, I'll meet you, Ron and 'Mione at Diagon Alley soon. See you soon."

Sirius and Molly looked relived and let out a breath they both didn't know they had been holding. Hermione looked at the floor, a worried look on her face. This time Ron spoke. " 'Mione, what's wrong? I mean, we'll see him in a week, we know he's ok, he's probably just figuring some stuff out with Hogwarts, you know how he's been helping to rebuild."

Hermione continued to frown. "Yes, but he had to replace his wand. Something serious must have happened. And anyway, Hogwarts is finished, Harry told us a few days ago. I think his inheritance must have been more serious than we thought."

They contemplated, before Sirius piped up again. "Well, we'll see him soon, so let's just continue. Remus will be back in a few days, and I," Sirius paused, and Hermione interjected. "We're all looking forward to seeing him again. His divorce with Tonks must have been stressful."

Sirius was curious about whom Remus had been married too, I mean, Remus was his before he was anyone else's. But Sirius couldn't blame him for moving on, he wouldn't have, but maybe Remus was more different than he remembered. He tuned back into the conversation, Ron and Hermione had been discussing Remus more. "Pore Teddy," sirius snapped his head up. "Who's teddy?" He inquired. Remus and Sirius had spent many hours under the stars, talking about their future, they would move to the country, live in a small village. Remus would teach, and Sirius would look after their little boy Edward, Teddy for short. Sirius hadn't seen Remus since his return (no one is exactly sure how he got back, but he did), was he having that future with someone else?

Hermione answered his question. "Teddy, shirt for Edward, he's Remus and Tonks's son." Sirius's heart shattered. "They are getting divorced though?" Sirius was not looking forward to the answer. "Yes, both decided it wasn't right for them, apparently Remus had feelings for someone else." His heart lifted, he would win Remus back, whatever it took. Now to worry about Harry. Surely nothing really bad had happened!

A WEEK LATER BROUGHT TO YOU BY DRAPPLE, THE BEST SHIP 🍏

Harry reached over the bed to find his trunk, it was still full, he had never unpacked it. He had had to rescue it from the Dursley's, who were not pleased to see him, given they thought they had gotten rid of him the week prior. He tossed a few more books in there, and sighed. He would have to go to Diagon alley soon, and he was not looking forward to it. There would be a lot of questions.He closed his trunk, and set out to adventure down the many floors to the door.

Ron and Hermione was scouting out, looking for Harry. The last few days had been pretty uneventful. They had had no more news from harry, and from what Hermione had been reading about inheritance's he would need to find his mate by the next heat. A.k.a, soon. Ron had to go back to the burrow with Hermione yesterday, telling everyone there was still no sign of Harry, but they were due to meet him the next day. All they had done was nod, and they went about a normal day of packing and panicking, looking for socks and ties that had disappeared a few weeks before.

Still no sign of anyone. They gave up and headed (Hermione dragged Ron) into flourish and botts, there was a lot of course textbooks to get. When they walked in there was barely anyone in there, they must have beaten rush hour. Hermione pulled Ron down an isle and both bumped into a raven haired man, looking more similar to Harry than possible, but it wasn't him, there was too much difference. He was taller, and much more 'manly'. This dude also had a snake. A really cool snake around his neck, and Ron was ogling it.

Hermione nudged him, and Ron quickly stopped looking. He kept looking. The male turned around, a face of surprise slowly forming on his (perfect) face. "Hi!" Hermione looked up at him, turning to Ron before saying, "I'm very sorry, but do we know you?" Harry smiles, and broke into a hearty laugh.

"I'm sorry, what!" He managed out between giggles.

"Um? Who are you?" Hermione replied

"Really! I guess I could've put on more glamours, but, really! You don't recognise me at all!" Ron and Hermione shook their heads, and Harry, again, broke into peals of laughter. "Ok then, let me introduce myself." Harry cleared his throat, maintaining eye contact. "I'm Hadrian Potter, but my friends call me Harry." Ron straightened his back.

"Harry? Wow! You've... changed!" Harry laughed again and turned to Hermione, hissing to his snake omfg this is so funny! Their faces!, before saying, "so, where to next? I'll give you the full story at Grimmauld place. But for now, we really need schools supplies. I have no quills." They both nodded and started happily chatting away again, like nothing had happened.

I know this chapter is really bad, but I wanted to put something up soon. Hope you enjoyed it! -kayden
