Chapter 23 - Chapter 23

Text(Slytherin Dorm)

For the first time in a very long time, Harry was in a situation where he didn't know what was going on and he didn't like it at all. Two weeks had passed since the orgy and while it didn't get him in any trouble, it did get him thinking about other oddities around him, such as the chair in the Slytherin dorm.

During his first week at the school he got in a massive fight with Higgs over the chair, but things have changed since then. According to Daphne, not a single Slytherin sat in the chair if he wasn't there, or at least she hadn't seen anybody do it. Curious if that was a coincidence or something else, Harry enlisted Blaise's help with a small experiment. He asked Blaise to try and sit in the chair when he was in his room and see what happened. Much to his shock, Blaise said that as he got closer to the chair he felt like something was pushing him away. Curious if it worked when he wasn't around, he got Blaise to go during his romp with Cho and interestingly enough the same thing happened. Clearly something preventing anybody other than him from sitting on the chair.

That mystery solved, Harry focused back on the shower. He convinced the Carrows to shower with him after their romp a week ago and when they walked into the bathroom they found that two of the showers were temporarily fused together making plenty of space for him to enjoy the girls, "Where's Tonks when you need her.' Harry mused as he sat in his dorm. His older cousin had quite a few experiences herself with strange things at Hogwarts and Harry hoped she could shed some light on what was happening. Unfortunately, with exams around the corner, she was trying to study and get as much sleep as possible, so they didn't spend as much time together at all.

All of the sudden, Harry felt his magic stir and he watched as a door appeared out of nowhere in the middle of his room. 'It couldn't' be' Harry thought to himself as he looked at the door. That door certainly wasn't there before and considering that he felt his magic stir just before it, he wondered if this was the latest example of Hogwarts doing what he wanted.

 Taking a deep breath, he opened the door and walked through figuring that his cousin was merely studying for her exams, and they could talk in private about what was going on. What he didn't expect to find was his cousin naked with her want in her hand and an equally naked Hestia with her own wand ready to go standing next to the bed. Given that love juices were flowing down both girl's pussies there was no doubt as to what they were doing before.

"Uhh hi." Harry said bashfully and Tonks jaw dropped as she saw her cousin walk through having noticed the door mid coitus with Hestia and instantly alerted her best friend.

Hestia looked at Harry and smiled, "Not that I'm not happy to see you but how the heck did you create a portal to our room Harry." Hestia asked.

Harry was both embarrassed and amazed at the way this was playing out and decided that honesty was the best policy, "Well. I was thinking about weird stuff that happened lately, and I wished I could talk to you. Then a door appeared out of nowhere. I walked through and well… here I am" Harry shrugged.

Tonks shook her head and put down her wand, "Well there's good news and bad news. Bad news is that no matter what your intentions were, you're trespassing in the Hufflepuff dorm after curfew and I'm a Hufflepuff Prefect." Tonks smiled.

Harry rolled his eyes, "So what do I have to do to keep you from telling Professor Sprout." Harry said rhetorically as he watched Hestia walk over with a sway in her hips. It was the definition of a rhetorical question.

"The good news is my lips will be sealed if you help me and Hestia finish what we were doing before your interruption." Tonks smiled.

"That is good news." Harry smiled as Hestia closed the distance between him. Harry could worry about why Hogwarts was doing this later. For now he had two beautiful girls to fuck and ones that he wouldn't be seeing for much longer.

(Scene Skip)

The next day Harry called Gano and asked him if he could meet with his parents. His loyal elf returned about five minutes later and liberal usage of his house elf. Harry found himself in the sitting room at Potter Mansion with his mother, "So what happened that you needed to speak to me now."

"Get ready because this is going to be an explanation." Harry frowned as he told his mother what happened. Lily Potter was the moral compass of the group, and she would be the best person to talk to about this. When he was done, his mother took a deep breath.

"So that's how it manifested." Lily replied with an odd expression on our face.

"What manifested." Harry said with a slightly annoyed tone.

"After we retrieved you from the Dursley's, we had Ragnok do the standard tests on you to make sure that you were okay, and that Dumbledore hadn't done anything to mess with you while you were with him.

"Did he." Harry frowned.

"Yes but those were easily taken care of. What's most important is that the inheritance test revealed that one of your inheritances was the Slytherin Lordship."

Harry blinked, "Wait you mean Salazar Slytherin. As in the founder of Slytherin himself." Harry said in disbelief.

"Yes. you inherited it from when you beat the Dark Lord and I believe that even though you haven't claimed it, your magic is showing you what that particular lordship can do for you in attempt to get you to claim it for yourself."

Harry took a second, "In other words, the school itself is reacting to my wishes and magic." Harry mused.

"Yes. Personally I'm glad you told me about it instead of your father and Sirius. They'd suggest you use it for pranks and all kinds of mischief."

"Agreed." Harry chuckled. They would've 100% approved of him using it to have sex with Tonks and Hestia also.

"Either way, the best thing you can do for now is relax and don't be tempted to much by its power." Lily warned.

"I know. The first lesson you guys taught me is that absolute power corrupts absolutely." Harry replied.

"That's right and the three of us are proud that you've taken our lessons to heart. I'm proud of the smart and intelligent wizard you are. Your father is proud because you've thrived in Slytherin despite everything being theoretically against you. Sirius is proud because you have more witches than you know what to do with yourself." Lily said chuckling at the last part.

Harry smiled at that, "Well I've got to get back to school. Still, things are going to be interesting the next month and a half." Harry said with a sigh. He's got a lot going on.

"They will. Still be careful because Dumbledore will no doubt have a plan or two ready if you do claim it."

"I know." Harry frowned reminded of the old man whose plots affected so much of his life.

"Now get back to school." Lily smiled.

"Right." Harry replied and with Gano's help he returned to Hogwarts trying to deal with his newfound knowledge.

(Scene Skip)

Harry was relaxing in his room late at night when he had a knock on his door, "Come on in." Harry replied. Much to his absolute shock Draco was there and he looked horrified.

Draco took a series of deep breaths because his relationship with Harry was rocky to say the least and he needed to talk to somebody, "Potter I need you to keep a secret." Draco said calmly.

"Fine." Harry said calmly wondering why the hell Draco was coming to him for anything.

"I mean it Potter. Nobody I mean nobody can know about this." Draco insisted.

"I said fine Draco. Now tell me what happened." Harry said firmly.

"Remember when I lost 100 points for spilling about that dragon." Draco said with a bit of shame.

"Unfortunately." Harry frowned.

"Well I also served a detention for that, and the detention was tonight." Draco replied.

Harry was intrigued now because detention couldn't have possibly been that horrible, "What happened." Harry wondered.

"Apparently somebody's been attacking the unicorns in the Forbidden Forest, and I went with that oaf Hagrid, Weasley, Thomas, and Finnegan to investigate." Draco explained.

Harry knew instantly what happened, "So you found what was attacking the unicorns." Harry replied and Draco's eyes said it all. The look of horror was something else.

"Not what Potter. Who. We were split up. The Oaf went with Weasley and Thomas while I went with Finnigan and the oaf's mutt. We were walking for a while and then we found it."

"It?" Harry said ominously.

"We found some robed figure chewing on a unicorn and of course Finnegan had to scream out and alert him. If not for the bloody centaurs showing up we wouldn't have made it out alive." Draco said clearly shaken by the event.

Harry didn't like this at all, "I understand Draco. Though I'm surprised you didn't tell Snape." Harry mused.

Draco's eyes seemed to light up, "You're right Potter. Severus should still be up. I don't know why I came to you." Draco scowled.

"There's the Draco I know." Harry smiled but he was focused on something else.

'Whatever. Don't tell anybody what you heard Potter." Draco said coldly before leaving shutting the door behind him.

Harry took a deep breath and sighed. "Message delivered Hogwarts." This was Hogwarts yet again telling him something and in this case it was somehow getting Draco to tell him about what was going on.

Thanks to a magical creatures book he knew that Unicorns were some of the most incredible creatures in the magical world. Normally pure of heart, they only appear before the purest of pure and their blood given freely is supposed to be able to heal nearly anything. however, if it wasn't given freely it was… like a poison.

"So that's what's going on." Harry said as the pieces finally fit. Quirrell was the one in the forest, and he was there because of whatever dark magic was attached to him. The unicorn blood was sustaining him and whatever parasite was in his body but that would only be temporary. Quirrell would need a solution to his problem but if he was drinking blood despite the flaws that meant one thing. He knew of a permanent solution and was buying time to get it. The question was what that solution was and where would it be.

His eyes widened again because he realized where the solution was. The Third Floor Corridor where certain death awaited anybody who followed.

(Scene Skip)

The good news was Harry had his answer to some of the crazy events taking place at the school. The bad news is, he was smart enough to know not to focus on it, so he went back to doing what he did best and that was fucking his witches. The girls from all the dorms provided an excellent distraction and now it was time for the most important period of the year, and that was exams.

The exams were a moment that Harry was looking forward to and dreading because it marked the end of an era and to celebrate it, he found himself in the Prefects bath with Tonks and Hestia Jones both girls by his side and his arms wrapped around their stomachs, "This time next week, we'll be done with exams and focused on our future." Tonks smiled bitterly. N.E.W.Ts started tomorrow, and Tonks wanted one final bath with Harry before exams to detox.

"Yep. As long as we pass our N.E.W.Ts we'll be aurors and off to protect the world." Hestia smiled bitterly.

"And I couldn't be happier for you. Nym you've wanted this for as long as I could remember." Harry said warmly as he thought about his adopted sister.

"Yeah. All that time training at Grimmauld and all the time we spent talking about scenarios and stuff. I wouldn't be here if not for you." Tonks lamented.

"But you'll be fine without me." Harry smiled.

"I know but for as long as I can remember you've been an integral part of my life. I'm going to miss that" Tonks admitted shyly her hair turning a bit pink with the embarrassment.

"No doubt. He's 6 years younger and he's been blowing your mind for years and then blowing out your back with that cock." Hestia smirked well aware he'd done the same with her for the past few months

Harry rolled his eyes, "First off. I'm not going anywhere. Gano can come and go as he pleases, and we both know I'm helping you and Hes break in your beds once you each move into an apartment."

Hestia smirked, "What if we share an apartment."

"Even easier." Harry smiled.

"Fuck I'm jealous. Megan Susan and all those brats get you for the next six years." Hestia cursed.

"Like I said. I'm not letting you go that easily. With Gano's help I'll visit you as often as you want, and we can keep doing this" Harry smiled reaching up to grope Hestia's breasts to prove his point

"Sounds good to me." Tonks smiled as she moved from his right onto his lap. As she had many times before she lined herself up with his cock and dropped down enjoying the feeling of being connected to him.

"Hestia smiled before pulling her face towards his, "Don't forget me stud." Hestia smiled as she pulled him into a kiss.

Harry naturally made out with Hestia as Tonks bounced on his shaft and Harry enjoyed one final moment with the two older girls. Tonks was his first girl, and she helped mold him into the person he was now both as a wizard and a lover. Still, it was the end of an era in a way for him and he was much happier to focus on this than anything else.

(Scene Skip)

Exam week went by in a flash with everyone focusing on exams to the point Harry had gone without sex for the entire week and now only DADA, with Astronomy later tonight remained. The one hour written exam was first and now it was time for the second part, "For your practical exam you along with a partner will demonstrate one of the spells we've learned in class. Your grade will depend on how powerful the spell you chose is." Quirrell said calmly.

"I choose Potter." Draco said firmly.

"Fine." Harry said calmly.

"Are you sure about this Harry." Daphne said nervously. The worst kept secret of the Slytherin Dorm was how much Draco hated Harry. This 'free shot' was risky as heck.

"Yes." Harry replied before briefly reading Draco's mind using legilimency, a skill he rarely enjoyed using but would use right now. Thankfully Draco's shields were minimal, so he knew exactly what the ferret was planning, and he had to give him credit because Draco came up with a rather vicious idea.

Quirrell waved his wand to give the two space and then Draco stood before Harry and waved his wand, "Here we go MUCUS AD NAUSEUM." Draco shouted and fired the curse at Harry ready for the brutality.

Quirrell's eyes widened, and Harry simply snapped his fingers as the curse hit causing Harry to fly back and fall onto the ground. "Mr. Malfoy what were you thinking using that spell." Quirrell shouted.

"Professor, what spell was that?" Daphne frowned, not recognizing it.

"It's called the Curse of the Bogies. It gives the user an extremely nasty cold with a constant runny nose and it could be dangerous if not taken care of. I mentioned it earlier in the year but didn't reveal the incantation." Quirrell scowled.

"What!!!" Lyra roared before reaching for her wand with Daphne and the other girls doing the same.

"That's quite enough Lyra." Harry replied as he slowly got to his feet.

Quirrell ran over nervously since that was a dangerous attack and Harry appeared to take it directly, "Mr. Potter are you alright." Quirrell said timidly as he reached for Harry but when Harry grabbed his hand the Professor screamed in pain. "AHHH!!!" Quirrell wailed and the class looked on in shock as his hand seemed to light up before fading away.

"What the hell." Blaise gasped and Quirrell stumbled back before colliding with a stunned Malfoy. The class watched in terror as Quirrell's body seemed to disintegrate before their very eyes and a powerful wraith appeared from the now charred remains.

"Harry Potter!!! You haven't seen the last of Lord Voldemort." The voice said in an icy tone before fierce red eyes appeared and the wraith flew away leaving quite a few Slytherin's with their eyes wide open in terror at who had just been revealed.

Even Harry was shaken slightly as he got to his feet, and he was going to have a headache on his hands later but there was nothing he could do, "Can I get a house elf NOW." Harry shouted as his classmates tried to gather themselves.

One of the house elves appeared, "What can Tweak do for you."

"Go get Professor Dumbledore and tell him that Professor Quirrell just turned to ash in front of the entire first year Slytherin Dorm after an odd incident." Harry replied knowing that questions would be asked.

Tweak nodded before looking down and seeing the robes and turban, "YES SIR!" Tweak said in terror before leaving.

Harry looked at his classmates and this was not good. The Carrows looked absolutely terrified, and Draco was worse considering he just collided with Quirrell as he basically turned to ash, "I know everyone is still stunned but Dumbledore will be here shortly, and we can figure out what in the world just happened." Harry said firmly, hoping to calm people down. Looking at everyone, that was a task that was easier said than done and he completely understood it.

(Scene Skip)

What was a bad year for Dumbledore somehow became worse, and Dumbledore walked into the DADA classroom with Snape and Pomfrey by his side after hearing from Tweak about a truly horrifying situation. Everyone was still off to the side, as they saw Professor Quirrell's robes and turban on the floor with no sign of the Professor, "Mr. Potter seeing as how you were the one who informed me, how much can you tell me about what happened." Dumbledore said calmly.

Harry explained what happened in full, starting with the exam itself, Draco's actions, and then Quirrell walking over to him afterwards. He then explained everything perfectly and Dumbledore and Snape were equally horrified.

"Mr. Potter, you said that Draco used the Curse of the Bogies on you and yet you appear unharmed. Why is that?" Dumbledore asked curiously.

Harry smiled because that was easy, "I used a wandless and relatively silent Protego charm to block the hex. Admittedly I hadn't used my wandless abilities in some time, so I was knocked to the ground." Harry replied.

Dumbledore nodded, "Well done. Everyone if you'd like Madam Pomfrey can look over you to ensure you are alright. I understand that you have an astronomy exam tonight but if you wish to take some time to rest after your ordeal I will understand."

"Hold on. You can't just gloss over the fact that a man the world thought has been dead for 12 years just appeared from our Professor's dead body!" Lyra exclaimed and quite a few people nodded in agreement.

"Ms. Malfoy I assure you I am not, but I also cannot explain how that happened." Dumbledore said solemnly.

"BULL. There's absolutely no way you didn't know. For Merlin's sake Professor he was in staff meetings with you all year." Lyra shouted.

"Ms. Malfoy calm down. I understand you are stressed but." Snape said trying to placate her.

"Stressed is preparing for exams knowing that I'm representing the Malfoy name. Stressed is watching my brother use an exam as an excuse to deliver a nasty curse on his fellow snake and somebody I'm very close to. I just watched my bloody Professor collide with my brother and turn to ash, I'm not stressed Professor, I'm furious and the last thing me or anybody else needs is for you to hide what you know."

Dumbledore replied, "I understand Ms. Malfoy. I truly cannot explain what happened and I hope that an investigation will reveal that." Dumbledore said trying to pacify them.

"It better or my father will hear of this." Lyra scowled.

Everyone in the class was stunned because that was Draco's line and Lyra was usually so opposite of Draco that it was scary, "Noted." Dumbledore said aware that this was bad.

"If anybody needs me in the next few days I will ensure my office is open." Pomfrey said calmly.

"As for your astronomy exam tonight. I don't believe any of you are in any condition to take an exam after this. Return to your rooms and rest and I will inform Aurora. She will surely understand." Snape said firmly.

"Yes sir though we might need a minute before returning." Harry replied.

"I understand." Snape replied. This was an utter disaster for everyone involved and there would be hell to pay.

(Scene Skip)

The last day of exams should've been a day of joy for everyone in Hogwarts but there was solemn silence. Rumor of what happened spread like wildfire thanks to Gryffindor being in the middle of their potions exam when Snape was pulled away by the House Elf. Everyone was waiting for the appearance of the Slytherin first years wondering what would be going through their head. Sure enough they all walked in carefully with Draco and Harry walking in together as the others trailed behind, "Making their way over to their section everyone sat down patiently and with no words said by anybody.

Dumbledore seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and waited a moment before addressing the crowd. "As many of you may have heard, there was an incident this afternoon during the First-Year DADA exam. We were unaware of this fact, but our esteemed Professor Quirrell was possessed by a wraith claiming to be the Dark Lord Voldemort who perished 12 years ago at the hands of Harry Potter and his family. While I don't know how this happened or when, the wraith's tentative hold on Quirrell proved to be too much, and the incident this afternoon was simply the breaking point, and our dear Professor is now gone" Dumbledore paused as the crowd started to stir.

"While I do not know why this wraith claimed to be the Dark Lord, I can tell you that Professor Quirrell's turban was filled with enchantments that prevented our wards from sensing him which is why we weren't aware of the possession. There is also no clear explanation as to why he faded now but we can only hope that there will be no more incidents like this in the future." Dumbledore said politely.

"That sounds like a load of bull." Lyra frowned.

"It is but let him have this." Harry replied.

"But why?" Lyra protested and everyone else was curious why Harry was so dismissive.

"Because let's be real the alternative is not pleasant for ANYBODY."

"True." Lyra scowled. This incident would cause panic amongst pureblood families so being intentionally vague was the play to go.

"Come to think of it, I'm surprised you were able to keep your composure during all of that Harry. Everyone else was panicking but you were relaxed." Blaise said with a scowl.

"I know a lot of things Blaise and some of those things I don't tell people for very specific reasons." Harry answered.

 "Did you know that would happen." Daphne said angrily.

"This specifically no. I knew that Quirrell was possessed by something, but I certainly didn't know that him grabbing me would cause THAT to happen" Harry answered.

"That's crap. You set everything up." Pansy scowled.

"Keep in mind Pansy that, DRACO is the one who set the stage for everything not me. He was the one who chose me for the practical. He was the one who chose an extremely dangerous hex instead of something simple like the Knockback jinx." Harry countered.

"Good point." Crabbe admitted.

"Shut it Vincent." Pansy replied angry that her point was so quickly rejected.

"So that's your first name." Harry chuckled. The whole time he had no idea what the names of Malfoy's bodyguards were.

"Yep. Vincent Crabbe at your service."

"I'm Gregory Goyle by the way." Goyle smiled.

"Good to know." Harry answered.

"Will you stop acting so calm. If that was the dark lord there's no telling what that means for our future." Draco panicked.

"It means absolutely nothing." Harry said calmly.

"Potter you have no idea what you're talking about." Draco scowled and quite a few Slytherin's nearby were equally annoyed. Harry was raised by muggles and thus knew nothing of what Voldemort did to the magical world.

"Actually I do Draco. Thanks to the Black family library, which I've had access to for a while, I know a thing or two about dark magic even if it's not something I'd use on anybody. The only rituals that would be able to do anything for him require a lot of help, and as far as I know, he doesn't have it." Harry replied.

"What do you mean as far as you know." Daphne frowned.

"Do you guys remember when Peter Pettigrew was killed earlier this year." Harry said calmly.

"Yes but what does he have to do with anything." Daphne continued.

"I'm almost 100% certain that Peter's killer is somebody connected to his days with the Dark Lord."

"And what makes you so sure of that." Flora Carrow frowned.

"Because the only people who'd want Peter dead, are my family and former Death Eaters. Seeing as how I know that my family isn't responsible, that leaves Death Eaters."

"How do you know that your family didn't do it." Draco scowled.

Harry gave Draco a vicious grin, "Because they know better than to kill Peter without telling me so I can get my pound of flesh from him also." Harry said causing Draco and everyone around him to shudder. Harry was never that cold to anybody, and seeing it was almost terrifying

"Got it." Draco shuddered and everyone else stayed silent.

(Scene Skip)

Harry walked into the bath with a smile on his face especially when he saw Nym alone, "Wanted to save the last bath for yourself huh Nym." Harry chuckled as he spotted his cousin waiting naked as she had so many times before.

"Yep. Even after all this time, I still don't know why we have to be at Hogwarts for over a week when exams are over but I'm sure you've used that time well." Tonks said with a wry smile.

"I have." Harry acknowledged before stripping and joining her. Indulging in the various girls he's met and fucked over the year without class to get in the way was amazing and thanks to Hogwarts he seemed to always do it without interference from anybody.

"Good. I guess it means I won't worry as much about you when I'm gone." Tonks smiled.

Harry snorted, "If one of us should be worried about the other it's me worried about you. Despite everything that's happened you're still clumsy and auror training is no joke." Harry reminded her.

"I've gotten a lot better but yeah." Tonks chuckled bitterly. Her clumsiness had massively improved, but she still had moments of struggle and as an auror she'd need to work on that.

"Either way. With what happened, people will be on guard now more than ever. You're going to have a lot on your plate." Harry chuckled. The wraith incident spread like wildfire and Amelia Bones even did a small bit of investigating that ultimately concluded nothing as Dumbledore wanted.

Either way, now everyone was aware that things weren't quite as nice as Dumbledore would like at Hogwarts.

"So can I count on you if I ever need stress relief." Tonks asked cheekily.

"You know the answer to that Nym." Harry replied.

"I do and I'm glad." Tonks smiled before pecking him on the cheek. Harry had her back from day 1 and that clearly wouldn't change.

"I wonder who will star in these bath's next year." Harry smirked.

"Don't know but I'm sure you'll have plenty to do both during and after class." Tonks smirked.

"Yeah and I love it." Harry chuckled. He had lovers in all 4 dorms and truthfully he had a feeling if he wanted he could have more. He'd let the girls take care of things for now and move on.

"I'm sure you do." Tonks rolled her eyes.

"Well, let's just relax together and enjoy this moment of peace while it lasts." Harry sighed.

"Sounds good. We could use some peace and quiet with all the craziness from this year." Tonks replied as they simply relaxed in the water instead of one final round. If you had told her that the Boy Who Lived being placed in Slytherin wouldn't be in the top 3 stories of the year, she'd have told you that you were crazy. Still that was the reality and while she was looking forward to being with the aurors, she shuddered at the thought of what other craziness Harry would get up to. Well, that was a subject for another day.
