Legacy of Harry Potter

November 1994

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

The moment Rita Skeeter revealed the location where she had last seen Dumbledore, Minerva felt the space shifting around her and she knew it was Harry.

"Harry… stop…" she tried to stop Harry but she had been late and Harry had already vanished from the hospital wing.

Minerva gave a frustrated sigh as she resolved her next steps.

"Miss. Black," she said. "Please contact your sister Mrs. Tonks and Lord Greengrass."

"We need to go as soon as possible," she continued. "We do not know what sort of things would be lying here."

"In the meantime, I will gather madam Bones and other professors," she added. "Hopefully, Harry will be fine till the time."

Narcissa nodded and walked away briskly while Minerva also followed suit.

Minerva did rush rashly behind Harry. She knew that if it was something that Harry could not even handle for few minutes, then she alone made no difference. To really make a difference, she would need a group of powerful allies.

Although she would have wanted for Harry to act not rashly, she knew he was powerful enough to handle most of the dangers.

In a span of few minutes, a group of powerful wizards and witches assembled outside the wards of Hogwarts.

These included Minerva McGonagall, Amelia Bones, Cyrus Greengrass and his wife, Narcissa Black, Andromeda Tonks, Filius Flitwick, Pomona Sprout, and other Hogwarts professors.

The group also included the lord and members of the other allied families such as the Davis family and the Abbot family.

The group of muggle born who had been trained by Amelia under Harry's request were also part of this group.

Minerva had taken up the role of the commander or the leader of the group. She used a wide scale apparition and a moment later, this big sized group appeared at the location given by Rita Skeeter.

They spotter the lone castle immediately and walked towards it unhesitatingly. Minerva who was in the lead stopped abruptly at some distance away from the castle.

"There seems to be a very powerful ward from this point onwards," she informed the group. "This should be the ward which had injured Rita."

"And even for the combined effort of all of us," she continued. "We will need to put in considerable hard work to out do this ward."

"Would Lord Potter be inside?" Amelia questioned with a frown.

They could not waste time in breaching the ward only to find that Harry was not inside.

Minerva and the rest of the people were just about to contemplate when a massive explosion shook the entire area. The ground beneath them literally trembled and their ears deafened for a moment because of how loud the explosion was.

In front of the astonished eyes of this group, the stone castle- which seemed sturdy enough was blown to smithereens.

Dumbledore's Castle

(Some Time Back)

Dumbledore's maniac like laughter was followed by his spell. It was a bombarda maxima spell and Harry had little time to react.

He moved his body side ways and barely dodged the spell. The spell which had missed Harry by a breath struck the castle wall behind him and rocked the walls of the castle. The wall of the castle trembled and it was only the wards protecting the castle which kept the wall standing in one piece.

"How is it, Harry?" Dumbledore laughed.

Harry's face hardened as massive amount of magic started to circulate in his body. He whipped his wand and a fiendfyre which had taken the shape of a massive bird sped towards Dumbledore.

Dumbledore did not even flinch as an equally large water serpent erupted from his wand and collided with Harry's fiendfyre. The result of the collision was a big collision and large amounts of steam as both the spells cancelled out each other.

Another spell left Dumbledore's wand- a blood boiling curse and Harry fired his own counter. The two spells collided in mid air and they both were again cancelled.

The battle continued for the next few minutes with no clear winner. Spells after spells left the wands of both the legendary wizard as they duelled each other. But no one could be said to have gain an upper hand.

Unlike Voldemort, whom Harry had dominated from the very beginning, he stood on an equal footing with Dumbledore.

"We should take it up a notch, Harry?" Dumbledore chuckled and pushed a large amount of magic into his next spell.

It was a summoning spell and what had Dumbledore summoned? It was a massive troll- almost 50 feet in height. Its head was touching the ceiling of the castle.

But it was not an ordinary troll. The troll had been clearly modified- by magic and various other experiments. It had black lines running all over its body. The eyes of the troll were blood red in colour. And though trolls were already dumb creatures, it seemed to even lack consciousness. Probably Dumbledore's doing.

And most importantly, imprinted on the chest of the troll was the dark mark in pitch black colour.

"Like my creation Harry?" Dumbledore taunted. "It is another genius work of mine… and oh! Severus' potions too played a role."

"And now with the dark mark implanted in its soul, it has gotten even stronger," he said.

As soon as Dumbledore's words fell, the troll raised his right hand and smashed its fist towards Harry.

Harry knew that the troll was magic resistant and while it would not have been a problem with an ordinary troll, he could not be sure if even his magic would work against this mutated troll. And he had no time for other kind of magic.

Thus, he jumped back just in time to avoid the incoming fist. The fist though missed Harry smashed on to the ground.

The force behind the fist was so huge that it caused the entire ground to tremble. The walls of the castle were blown away by the impact of the fist and its shockwaves.

Harry who had just gotten his feet steady was also thrown away by the sheer impact of the shockwaves and at the last moment he managed to keep himself in shape and made a landing.

"Hahaha…" Dumbledore laughed. "This is my power, Harry."
