Chapitre 4: Chapter 4-[Lupinids]
The new life of the group began. The couple recovered from their injuries and with all the documentation prepared, the three teachers began teaching the couple.
With no one to limit them, the young couple proved to be very powerful and promising wizards.
It was a surprise to discover that the chestnut's parents were very interested in creating and making potions. When the couple received classes they behaved like two other classmates.
The two grim cubs did not separate themselves from their companions. It was normal to see them running around with the two of them in the forest and its surroundings. The two animals had gained a little more weight and size. In addition to that, they proved to be totally faithful and very intelligent and intuitive. Something that seemed to be reflected in their human companions. The pair could feel the same as the two Grims and sometimes see and hear the same as the magical beings. Flitwick informed them that it was rare, but that there were known cases and that they could master it in time.
During one of the classes, Harry had an idea.
"Minerva," said the young man. "There must be other boys and girls with our same problem." At his side, Hermione understood what the young man was thinking. "That is to say, it is certain that others... something like this has happened to them." The woman thought about it.
" Yes, it is very possible. " the Scottish woman thought for a moment. " As soon as it is known that they are werewolves, they are kicked from Hogwarts. But it hasn't happened in years. The few bitten ones were not allowed to attend... " The woman understood what the boy was thinking. " Are you thinking of bringing them to the island and giving them magical education? " the brunette nodded.
" Yeah. But only to those who are of age to go to Hogwarts or at most a couple of years later. " He answered. " Although with some conditions. The main one is not to be bloodthirsty killers. Maybe we could... prevent it from happening again." The Scotswoman knew that the boy was referring to what had happened to him and Hermione.
" If that's what they want. " The woman responded. " For my part, I don't see it being a problem and I doubt that Filius and Pomona will find it bad."
"It would be the first school for werewolves!" Hermione added.
" We will talk during dinner. " Minerva added. " If everything goes well, tomorrow we will go to the ministry to begin all the necessary procedures and look for those children."
That night, during dinner, the couple explained their idea and what they wanted to achieve.
Everyone agreed with the idea. Even the Grangers were surprised that the wizarding world didn't already have something like that.
" They should know what the government is like after what happened to them. " Pomona added, looking at Harry and Hermione. " A child bitten by a werewolf is considered a dark creature. " Sigh. " Hopefully he can be educated at home if his Parents are magical. But... " She looked at the dentists "You already heard what they intended to do to Hermione."
" And that would only be if his family supported him! " Flitwick added. " You would be surprised at how quickly a wizard gets rid of his son if he is bitten. " The horror could be seen on the couple's face. " You already know that we will find out if we manage to locate them."
The rest of the dinner passed in a more contemplative manner. Everyone thought about the idea and what was said. Some could only try to push away the terrible images of the possible lives of those children.
{SCENE BREAK}
As expected, they found many obstacles to locating and supporting the bitten children. Some even accused Minerva and Filius of being two wizards who supported dark creatures.
When they explained their intention to educate them, any process in that regard quickly became difficult for them.
Luckily they had unexpected help.
At Gringotts, they gave them the solution to the problem. Not even the ministry could oppose an apprentice. So if they found bitten young people, they only had to take them on as apprentices. Within the apprenticeship, they could teach young people everything they considered necessary.
Thanks to the goblins, they completed all the procedures, after paying their fees and prepared to continue their search for the unfortunate children.
At the door of Gringotts, a wizard approached and gave them a list of the children and young people who were registered as werewolves. And a scroll with an address. Apparently, his granddaughter was one of them. Shortly after, he walked away, thanking them for their interest and regretting not being able to do more.
Back to the island, they took the information and a frightened twelve-year-old blonde girl.
"How was everything?" Pomona asked when she saw them. Then she looked at the little girl." Who is she?"
" Lavinia Chester." Minerva answered." One of my new apprentices."
Everyone looked at the woman.
"Everything has turned out better than expected," Filius clarified. "I think it would be best to explain it in front of a good feast," the little wizard finished, smiling.
During lunch Minerva and Filius explained the situation and how they had obtained the information about the affected children from the girl's grandfather. Also about how they went to pick her up to find her ready to leave. Apparently, her parents were not like her grandfather and either they would take her or they would get rid of her.
Hermione and Harry welcomed the girl and took her to her new room. The poor girl clung to Hermione in fear as she saw the two Grims following them. When Night gave her a lick and Hermione got the paralyzed girl to pet her companion, the girl did not hide her smile while continuing to caress the soft fur of the large animal.
In the morning the girl joined the Potters in classes, while Minerva and Filius visited other affected children who could join the others on the island.
At the end of the week, several more young people moved to the island. The number of boys and girls who agreed to be taught at the new school for magical apprentices, Sirius Black, was 12 without counting the two hosts.
All the young people were of different ages. The youngest was little Lavinia Chester, 12, and the oldest was a boy called Julius Somerset, 17.
Unfortunately, other children affected had decided to join a group of werewolves or had disappeared. A couple even rejected the offer, doubting it was true.
The two professors made sure they knew the offer would be open for a while.
The only thing common for all the children upon their arrival was to be paralyzed with fear when they saw the two Grims.
A lick later and a couple of caresses from the two incredible beings made them react. In two days that fear had disappeared.
{SCENE BREAK}
Life on the island began to establish itself in a controlled manner. The days were almost the same, classes in the morning and part of the afternoon, and the rest of the day for the young people to do whatever they wanted.
The only exceptions were Harry and Hermione. They had to learn everything about their position as Mr. and Mrs. Potter-Black.
With everything they had done and achieved, it had only taken three weeks to get to this point.
Everyone's fear centered on the next full moon. Children afraid of what they already knew would happen to them.
For the Potters, it would be their first transformation.
They hadn't gotten a potions master to brew the Wolfbane potion for them. No one was interested in doing it. The only offers left a lot to be desired.
For part of the rest of the world, Harry Potter had disappeared after being bitten. No one cared about young Hermione Granger, or so it seemed. Hermione Potter did receive some letters accusing her of being a dark creature and other worse adjectives. Some even demanded that she end her own life so as not to endanger the rest of society.
More than once someone had to calm down the girl's parents.
[T/N: If I was in that world...I would be lucky to get a dementor kiss after what I would do to people.]
{SCENE BREAK}
The day everyone feared finally arrived. That night would be their first full moon on Black Island. All of the children were feeling the usual aches and pains of their upcoming transformation.
The uninfected adults would take refuge in the mansion. The way it was built turned it into a fortress, perfect for shelter while the young people were transformed, in case they escaped from the prepared area.
The area they had prepared for the transformation was inside the forest, right where they started. They had prepared a large piece of ground with a large amount of runic barrier stones. The effect made the werewolves very uncomfortable if they tried to cross it and, in theory, would keep them in the area.
They had water and areas of trees and rocks. It would provide them with ways to take out their fury or even remain protected. This would allow the werewolves to move in an area that would keep them somewhat calmer.
All these preparations had been made so that at dawn, the children would be near the mansion so that the adults could help them.
Dinner that afternoon was very lively. The adults tried to distract the young people so that they would relax. Even the two Grims seemed to notice the situation and were much more affectionate towards their human companions.
In the end, the group of young people went to the place of transformation. The adults, with some nervousness, watched them leave the mansion. Shadow and Night had to stay with the adults for fear that they would harm any children while trying to protect Harry and Hermione. Due to the size and power of the beings, it was a titanic task. The connection they shared with the couple finally calmed them down and made them agree to leave them.
After the boys left the wizards blocked the large mansion.
The couple went with the rest to the prepared area.
Harry and Hermione stood together trying to comfort each other. The rest stayed away from each other.
Little Lavinia Chester approached the couple.
" Can I stay with you until...? " She asked nervously. The couple smiled and nodded.
"Sure," Harry said.
The little girl smiled as she settled down next to the couple. Other young people, upon seeing them, approached with some fear.
Harry and Hermione looked at each other and smiled. With a gesture, they gave their consent so that those who wanted to could come closer.
Shortly before the moon rose, the group was divided. The largest group were those who comforted each other. Around them, the elders stood at a distance, looking with some envy at the rest.
Finally, the moon came out.
All the children began to feel the beginning of their painful transformation. The only sound that could be heard was the children's screams of pain.
Some, who were more accustomed to it, had taken off part of their clothing when the pain began. The younger ones took the hands of those next to them looking for some relief, which did not come.
In the group, Harry and Hermione suffered symptoms for the first time. At the same time, they held Lavinia's hand.
Harry looked at Hermione and she did the same with him. Between the pains, the young man began to feel a presence in his head. Due to the ferocity of his feelings, the young man was sure that it was the wolf.
Something inside him resisted and without realizing it he fought against this presence.
Little by little he began to overcome the presence in his mind. At a certain point, the presence gave up and stayed inside the young man's mind.
Harry opened his eyes for the first time at what he thought would be a werewolf. As soon as he did it he knew that something was not how it was supposed to be. He could smell everything around him and saw in the darkness as if it were a cloudy day. A sensation that surprised him by its intensity.
Furthermore, He felt the wolf inside him, but he dominated. The wolf took on an attitude of calm guard. Still and controlled but... ready to go out when necessary.
Furthermore, the terrible pain that accompanied the transformation had not gone beyond some pulling and some discomfort in the skin. It wasn't like what he knew about werewolves.
Something else gave reason to this thought. Holding his hand was Hermione. Or what he assumed was Hermione. A woman with her entire body full of dark brown hair, as if she had wolf skin on her body. The being's head was undoubtedly a wolf's but its eyes were a golden color that the green-eyed man knew well.
When trying to speak only a series of growls or barks came out.
This caused the other creature to perk up its ears in surprise.
They both looked at each other with interest. Harry could see that he had transformed into a being similar to Hermione, only with black fur covering his body. The hands ended in claws that without force would be lethal.
The strange couple realized what was happening around them. The other transformed children moved around the rest. A couple growled at others trying to demonstrate their superiority to the rest. Two started fighting each other.
The fight made only two or three pay any attention to the two strange beings between them.
Harry and Hermione noticed a smaller werewolf standing near them growling and moaning. When looking at their companion, the differences were evident.
They could easily see that they were not like the rest. The others were similar but with a less complete appearance and much more dangerous and deformed. The hair that covered them looked like a wolf's but... nothing like what they had. All the werewolves that they could see had yellow eyes and reflected fury, except for the little one who was close to them, who looked at them with fear and was about to run away.
The couple recognized her as Lavinia.
When Hermione approached the being growled at her. This made the young wolf take a step back.
Harry, on the other hand, saw how something was threatening his partner and moved forward.
The creature, upon seeing him, attacked him out of fear. Harry felt something bite him, and this caused his inner wolf to take control for a second, and without realizing it he attacked the other werewolf.
It was only a second but it was enough to bite the young werewolf.
The being crouched down moaning from the attack.
Harry regretted what he had done as soon as he took control. The couple approached moaning as if asking for forgiveness for the attack.
If what happened to them was already strange, what happened was even worse. Before the couple, the werewolf that they knew was Lavinia, began to writhe on the ground. The couple could see how the creature changed.
Her normal werewolf appearance changed to take the form of a being more similar to the couple. The werewolf's brownish-brown hair lightened to a golden tone, similar to the girl's hair. Her deformed features were modified to be more natural. Even a beautiful tail began to move behind the creature.
Suddenly the being sat up with visible signs of nervousness.
Harry let out a growl to get their attention. The being turned when she heard it. As soon as it saw the couple, the creature's ears perked up, at the same time it moved its tail quickly.
Harry and Hermione looked at each other. Then Hermione held out her paw. Lavinia took this as an indication to get closer, she did so with some nervousness but as soon as she touched Hermione she took refuge in the arms that gave her some security, continuing to give small moans of joy.
The couple looked at each other without understanding anything.
Everything that happened did not go unnoticed by the rest of the werewolves. When the trio met, some decided to take a closer look at these beings they did not recognize.
They remained at a distance, smelling the air. The one who seemed the most violent had defeated his opponent without difficulty. Seeing that something strange had happened during their fight, as the winner he had to prevail. He began to approach Harry, growling angrily. He wanted to show that he was the alpha wolf of this group.
Harry saw him approaching and his inner wolf activated his instincts so that he knew what his intentions were and what he was expected to do.
When the being approached Harry, the green-eyed man stood in front of Hermione and Lavinia.
The werewolf lunged at Harry with a growl.
Without knowing how Harry was able to see his attacker heading towards him, he grabbed the creature's claw and twisted it. The large being let out a groan of pain, as Harry threw it away from him.
The werewolf turned quickly, angrier, and attacked again, trying to grab his opponent and bite him. He jumped to knock down his rival and stood on top of him. Again the black wolf saw his opponent approaching. He could even see some of his drool coming out of his open mouth and the madness reflected in his eyes. With a kick Harry threw him away again, howling in pain.
Again the werewolf got up and attacked. This time he had to shake his head to focus.
He lunged at the black wolf, who simply stepped aside and let him pass harmlessly. It didn't take long for the being to turn around to continue the attack.
Harry didn't understand what was happening. He could know how and when the being wanted to attack him.
Without problems, he avoided the blows and moved him away. It did him some good to be attacked by his cousin and friends.
The werewolf was getting more and more furious. Hermione seemed to notice and gave a growl to get Harry's attention and warn him. She succeeded, the problem was that she also attracted the attention of the werewolf who was attacking Harry.
The being focused on the other beings that looked like the other that he could not reach. He thought that these two, having the unmistakable female smell, might be easier. He let out a roar before charging towards the two.
The two Females felt that they were now the target of the being. They didn't know how, but they could feel the werewolf's attack as if it were moving slower than them.
In any case, they didn't need to do it since Harry jumped over the werewolf and forced him to stay on the ground, squeezing his neck with his claw while he roared near his head.
This was enough for the werewolf to surrender, knowing that this being was far superior to him. From the ground he let out a moan, demonstrating his submission. Harry, noticing this, let out a loud roar and then howled. The rest did not dare to approach when they saw the fight and the ease with which the most powerful had been defeated. As a demonstration of their submission to the best, they accompanied Harry's howl. Hermione and Lavinia inadvertently accompanied the howl.
From the mansion, the adults heard the sad howl about what was happening to the young people. On the other hand, two Grims were wagging their tails happily for their companions. They would be the ones who would sleep the easiest that night.
{SCENE BREAK}
As soon as the first ray of the sun rose, no one could stop Enma Granger from running out in search of her daughter and her new adopted son, Harry. Shadow and Night ran alongside her happily.
Behind her, the rest of the adults followed her. The teachers carried some robes and potions to help the young people.
No one prepared them for what they saw.
In the clearing the younger children played with each other, laughing. Only the Elders showed symptoms of what had happened to them. It surprised no one that the center of all the joy was Harry and Hermione. Shortly after they were laid down by their relatives who did not stop licking them.
" Oh! Okay Shadow, I'm glad to see you too," said Harry between the Grim's licks.
" Hello, beautiful! " Hermione was lucky that Night was a little less effusive than the other Grim. But she still laid her on the ground between licks.
The rest of the children laughed when they saw the scene.
"After what they've been through... they're still having fun," Pomona said.
" Hello everyone! " Hermione said. " How was your night? " The adults looked at her surprised.
" We would have to ask that. " Minerva said. " How are you feeling? " Almost all the children laughed. " What's so funny?"
"This!" Harry said. At once a large wolf with a human body was in front of the frightened adults. The being had black fur and you could feel the power around him. Enma was the first to notice that the being's eyes were the same green as Harry's.
"Harry?" To everyone's surprise, the being nodded.
"Merlin, Morgana and Circe!" Pomona began, letting the robes fall. "What is this?" was the last thing he could say before fainting when she saw how Hermione and the rest of the fun children were transformed too.
Minerva and Filius looked at what they had in front of them in disbelief. Once again Harry Potter seemed to have turned a problem in his favor.
"Can someone explain to us what's happening," Dan Granger asked. The children transformed again, bursting into laughter.
"Last night when we transformed we became these… beings," said Harry.
"I didn't believe it when I was able to control the wolf and take control of my body," Hermione added.
" That can't be! " Flitwick said. " Did you take any potions? " He asked. The couple denied it.
"No," they said at the same time.
" But, like the rest...? " Minerva didn't know how to say it.
"Did they transform?" Hermione asked, amused. The Scottish woman nodded. "When the transformation was finished, a fight started," she said, pointing to a couple of boys who were suffering from a couple of wounds. One was Julius Somerset. "It seems they had to see who the leader was," she added boredly.
" That's Harry! " Lavinia responded amused. The boy blushed.
" The fact is that Lavinia was next to us and... " Hermione looked at the girl who smiled embarrassedly. " She ended up biting Harry. He reacted and bit her. " When she said it, the brunette smiled. " Then she transformed into what she is now."
" And I can control the wolf! " The girl finished happily. " Besides, the transformation no longer hurts! " The rest of the children nodded in agreement.
" Does anyone have an explanation for this? " Enma asked.
" What they say is... impossible! " When Filius spoke he was pale. " I can't think of any other explanation than to think that Harry and Hermione have not become werewolves... " the two young people looked at each other. " They are... something else! If I had to say something... I would say that they are... the first of a new breed of werewolves. Something new and better than the ones we know!"
" What?! " Minerva said, as she woke up and helped Pomona get up. " Like a new race?!"
" I don't know! " Filius said. " To think of something even similar, we would have to know more about the curse and... " he gestured, searching for the words. " Knowing that we could modify it. A spell, a curse, or adding something more to the original. I don't know what! " He shook his head. " There are legends that this is how some races of magical beings appeared, such as Veela or centaurs. A powerful magician or alchemist, or an accident with a spell or potion, united two beings in some way and gave rise to something new." sigh." But if that knowledge ever existed, it has already been lost."
Minerva, Pomona, and Flitwick looked at Hermione. She noticed it and tensed.
"Mrs. Potter..." McGonagall began. "You haven't been hanging out in the Black library, have you?" the girl quickly denied.
" No, I swear! " She responded. " When we transformed we ended up like this! " The teachers looked at each other.
"It's like something got mixed with the curse," Pomona finally said. "Maybe a magical plant or..." The green-eyed man thought about something he had almost forgotten.
"How about Basilisk poison and Phoenix Tears?" he asked. Everyone looked at him." In my second year..." everyone remembered.
" What do you think? " Minerva asked without knowing what else to say.
"No one has survived the bite of a Basilisk before." Filius said." Of course, no one has survived the killing curse either!" Everyone looked at a frightened Harry." Maybe that combination with the protection that Lily gave. To her son... the curse has changed."
"And created a new magical race of thinking beings." Pomona added." Circe and Hecate protect us! If someone finds out about this...!"
"They would do anything to get hold of them!" Minerva finished.
" Why? " Dan asked. " Is what happened to them so important that they are... a new magical thing? " Everyone looked at them worried, especially the children.
" The ministry already wants to get rid of them. " Minerva began. " It doesn't matter that they are, as we believe, a new race! " She looked at the children. " But the potential itself is unlimited. They have the closest thing to a cure for the werewolf curse! " She watched as a child nervously left a stone almost a third of his weight on the ground without difficulty. " In addition to all its advantages! " The Scottish woman thought for a second. " All this is conjecture."
"But it is the most logical thing," Filius added.
"Yes," Pomona seconded.
"Harry. Could you change again? " the woman asked. The boy nodded and did so.
The three professors looked at the young man and raised their wands asking his permission. The big wolf nodded. The adult wizards cast a couple of diagnostic spells. Everything seemed fine with him.
"Everything seems to be normal," said Pomona.
"I wonder." Minerva cast one more spell. This left Harry surrounded by a slight green flash. " Incredible!"
"What's wrong?! " Hermione asked with fear.
" He's an animagus! " said the woman. " Harry is an animagus!"
"Do you mean that we change the curse into the ability to transform us into animals, in the form of a werewolf?" Hermione asked, understanding part of what the witch's reaction could be.
" No! That's not his animagus form." When McGonagall said it, Harry changed into a large black wolf." That's his animagus form!" she responded excitedly." I don't know how, but the lycanthrope form is... an intermediate step! No one has ever been able to achieve something like that! " Dan grabbed her when he noticed how she was losing her foot. " I don't know what you are. " the Scottish woman finished.
"He even already controls the Animagus transformation! " Pomona added without believing it. Harry transformed again.
"I don't know how, but I know how to transform," said the boy. Others nodded to show that it was happening to them too.
" This is...! " Filius began. " I don't know what it is! " He finished without knowing what to say.
" What happens now? Does it mean that they are no longer human? " Enma asked with fear.
"Of course not!" the three teachers said at the same time.
" A werewolf is still human." Minerva said." Even though the world of magic classifies them as dark creatures."
" So what are we? " asked the green-eyed man. The three wizards looked at each other and thought before speaking.
" If you ask me... " Pomona Sprout began. " I would say that you are children affected by a curse, different from that of the werewolves. " Her two colleagues nodded when they heard it.
"I think that defines it very well," Minerva finished.
" But what are we now? " Lavinia asked. " If we are no longer lycanthropes, what are we? " Everyone looked at her and then at the three adult wizards.
"What do you think, Lupinids? " said Harry. Everyone looked at him. "We will need a name at some point and I think it would be a way to remember Remus Lupin." At his side, Hermione smiled and nodded.
"The name itself has a meaning relative to wolves," Filius added. Harry looked at Hermione and they both shrugged.
"It's what we are," he replied. "Anyway, I like to be able to have something that reminds me of one of my parents' friends."
"I think it's good," said the brunette. "Sirius already has a school to remember him, it's fair that Remus also has something that lasts." She looked at the rest of the children. "What do you think?"
" YES! " was the unanimous cry.
"Let's go take care of the rest," said Pomona, looking at those who looked worse. "By the way, why do they look so bad and didn't they transform?" he asked. Harry shrugged.
"We didn't have time," said the brunette. "It's difficult to hunt a werewolf when it feels threatened." Especially if they are older, they can defend themselves and flee quickly. A couple were about to leave the protected area and we thought it was better not to force the situation. We decided to wait for another opportunity."
" What?! " Minerva asked. " Did you bite them without them asking?!"
"Professor," Hermione said. "Apart from a Lupinido." She smiled as she said it. "Do you know another human affected by the werewolf curse who is aware of himself?" Everyone laughed at the embarrassed face of the Scotswoman." The wolves saw a threat that they could not defeat and escaped."
"We only did it thinking that this way they would be better," Harry added. Behind them, the children nodded happily. The adults could argue little.
While the adults and some young people helped those who had undergone the normal transformation. The younger ones began to transform into wolves and run around everywhere, playing with each other.
With the situation somewhat more under control, the teachers carried out a new exam on the young people. The conclusions were…unique to say the least. They all had almost perfect health and an increase in their senses and magic. They also seemed to lack the disadvantages of werewolves. They would have to do some more tests to be sure and understand what had happened, or at least try.
In the end, one thing was clear. No one could yet figure out the emergence of this new race of humans. The consequences for the children could be… much worse than the werewolf curse itself and the life it forced them to live.
Harry tried to apologize for transforming them without their permission, but the children were delighted. Even the elders asked to be converted to free themselves from the painful monthly transformations.
That would be the last time a werewolf would spend an entire night transformed in Blackrock.
