"No." Harry stepped back. His wand slid to his hand when he saw the girl drew hers.
"No?" Tom sneered. "You must obey me, young one... or I shall be forced to take action against you."
Harry kept silent as he moved slowly away from the creepy possessed Weasley girl. Tom scowled and fired a series of low level curses to bind him.
Harry ducked and dived from the curses, firing a few of his own. Tom absently deflected them and her young face contorted with anger. "You dare!"
Tom decided to use more power, but he felt his control on the girl loosen. Such was the cost of using magic while he was not fully in control, and decided to fish the book in her pockets to use the power of the diary to take control once more.
Harry noticed the girl's actions and he held out the small book. "Looking for this?"
"Give it back!" The girl hissed as she struggled to remain in control. "Accio!"
Harry felt the book begin to slip from his grasp and with superior reflexes snatched it back. "Protego!"
The shield charm blocked the summoning charm and the girl screamed in frustration. Tom Riddle's grip on the girl slipped and she crumpled to the ground, unconscious.
Harry sighed in relief and decided his nest course of action. He levitated the unconscious girl in front of him back to the second year lavatory.
"Close." Harry hissed at the tap and the entrance to the Chamber sealed itself once more. Harry wondered what to do with the girl, and decided to just leave him on the floor after making sure she was breathing.
He eyed the book in his hands and vanished back to his headquarters. He had to give this to the old man right away.
November 1, Nicholas Flamel's Private study
"Something's not right with this diary." Nicholas frowned as he dropped the quill. "It's sentient and it's not supposed to do that."
"I thought it was just a magical diary... maybe a spell book." Harry said. "That's why I nicked it from tom Riddle."
"It is very magical." Nicholas said. "It has a strong compulsion charm for the user to write on it... I don't like this."
"What's wrong Nicky." Penny asked in concern. "Something's troubling you."
"I have my suspicions about this diary... but I need to be sure." Nicholas said. He looked at the diary for a moment and looked at the young thief. "Harry, are you up for another mission?"
"Sure." Harry said immediately. "Is it difficult?"
"Very..." Nicholas said. "I need you to get something from Albus' private library."
"But that's located in Dumbledore's office." The young thief remembered the old man's earlier warning. "You said there are many monitoring charms in his office."
"I said that... but that's the challenge." Nicholas Flamel said. "I think you're the only wizard that is capable of accomplishing this task."
"It's going to take some planning." Harry mused as he formulated possible plans.
"It's difficult to do it alone..."Nicky agreed. "You need some inside help. Don't forget, Dumbledore can apparated within Hogwarts. You need a distraction."
"I can do it alone." Harry insisted though he considered the old man's suggestions.
"What about your friends?" Nicholas asked. "They can help you."
"I'm not sure..." The young thief said. "They might not be up for this."
Nicholas exchanged glances with his wife and sighed. This was what Penny brought last night before they went to sleep. Young Harry had trouble trusting the people around him.
"Don't underestimate your friends Harry." Penny said softly. "They are not just tools you can take advantage off... there's more to friendship than that."
Harry nodded and he remembered the times he spent with Hermione and Padma. They willingly shared their notes on History of Magic with him and helped him in potions without expecting anything at all. He looked at Penny and the old man and nodded. "I'll consider it Penny."
"Good." Nicholas said in approval. A burst of fire in his fireplace caught his attention and he looked up to see Julian removing the dust and ashes that attached to his robes.
"You need to clean the old Fireplace, Nicholas." Julian said. He looked up and smiled when he saw his future son-in-law seating on top of the side table. "I was hoping to catch you here Harry."
"What brings you here Julian?" Penny asked as she stood up and hugged her 'great grandson'.
"Apolline wanted to ask if you wanted to visit us for Fleur's birthday." Julian said as he hugged his ancestor back.
"Why not..." Penny said after a moment. "It's going to be a private affair, isn't it?"
"Of course." Julian said, knowing Perenelle Flamel valued her privacy. "Of course Apolline's relatives will be coming."
"That's fine." Penny smiled. "Now you need to talk to Harry?"
Julian nodded and ruffled the young boy's hair as he sat on the open chair. "Fleur has some problems in school. Harry, I was wondering if you would consent to allowing your betrothal to my daughter to become public."
"Why?" Harry asked.
"Her Veela powers are maturing... and she's attracting unwanted advances from her male classmates. She's getting irritated with it, and by announcing her betrothal, these boys will back off."
"Hmmm..." Harry thought for a moment. Sooner or later, his betrothal will become public, and he decided that he doesn't have any problem with it. "Sure, go ahead."
"Harry, with the release of this news to the press, you will be subject to more attention than you are used to." Penny said. "Are you prepared for that?"
"It's going to come out sooner or later." Harry shrugged. "I don't really care what people think of it."
"Thank you Harry." Julian smiled. "Now... can you please return the paintings you have decided to hand in our home? Whenever we remove the paintings, hours later we find them back hanging in our bedroom. My wife and I... we miss our privacy."
Harry grinned. "Do you surrender?"
"I surrender." Julian admitted defeat. A week without sex was a horrible experience. There were even smaller paintings in their private bathroom, creating havoc with his wife during the mornings.
The young thief studied the stone Gargoyle for a moment, admiring its wicked looking stone wings. He knew a password was required to make it move aside and he was eager to see the magic that made it possible. He was wary though... the young thief knew that casting detection charms on the gargoyle will immediately alert the Headmaster.
