Chương 8: Chapter 8 : Rose Potter
Orion might be for the first time in his life was so excited.
Which kid didn't dream about having magic, beating terrorists in his school and becoming the Mr cool guy?
Even in his previous life, he was only 16 when he died so from his heart, he is still not an adult.
So, he was extremely excited to find himself a seat and quickly settle down.
"I know that you are excited but remember that the moment you enter into Hogwarts, you are under the watch of the ministry," Merlin said, throwing cold water on Orion's dreams.
"Yeah there is that as well, do you have any idea how that trace works?" Orion could not help but ask.
"I have some idea. Like the trace itself is not placed on the wand if you are wondering after reading that fanfiction in your previous world.
The tracing charm is placed on the underage wizard and not the wand.
My best guess is that you will be placed under that trace when you enter through that boat ride. That is the only thing which is different from the rest of the students and the first year," Merlin said and Orion's eyes narrowed a little.
"Want me to avoid the entire boat ride and enter through another side," Orion asked.
"I want nothing, my friend, it's you who matter. Do you don't want to trace on you then you can try this. It might or might not work. I just have a hunch that it will work," Merlin said with a mischievous smile on his face.
Orion then just mentally made a note to not follow the first years.
He was about to ask another question, a habit he had developed after getting most of the answers from Merlin about the magical world, but at this time someone entered the cabin.
'Oh, we will talk later,' Orion said after watching a girl coming and switch to talking in his mind. Merlin can read his mind so it's a good thing in some cases.
Merlin just smiled and puffed on his pipe. And suddenly started to shrink in size. Under just a second he was no bigger than a mouse.
Orion who was watching this from the side, did not even notice that the girl was calling him.
"Hello, are you listening?" asked the red-haired girl.
Orion finally got out of his shock and looked at the girl.
Orion quickly made a mental note to ask about this size-changing magic to Merlin later and then replied to the girl.
"Ah yes, sorry I was thinking about something and didn't notice you there," Orion quickly said.
"Oh, that's fine, I wanted to ask whether I can sit here?" asked the girl.
"Yes yes, please come in," Orion replied without much delay. And only then did, he notice the features of the girl.
The girl had red hair, with glasses on. She was frail, almost more frail than what Orion was a month ago after fighting with that Vampire.
She had emerald green eyes, its contrast with his own blue eyes.
"Do you need some help ?" Orion offered to help after noticing that the girl having a problem handling her luggage.
"Uh yes please, it's pretty heavy," the girl agreed and smiled a little with embarrassment.
Orion stood up and took the luggage from the girl's hand and without any difficulty, he was able to put it up in the upper section of the cabin.
After that he finally let the girl come inside and she sat opposite him.
"Hello, I am Orion D. Ambrosius, Nice to meet you," Orion said with a charming smile.
The girl blushed a little at this.
"Ah yes, nice to meet you too, I am Rose Potter," said the girl.
Orion from his side blink.
Merlin who was now small as a mouse too looked at the girl with a little amazement.
"Potter. Are you sure that your name is Potter?" Orion could not help but ask with a little suspicion on his face.
Rose thought, who might be expecting this reaction, just rose her hairs covering her forehead and there it was.
The lightning sign scar on her forehead.
Only then did Orion realise that his journey in his magical world might be not as smooth sailing as he was thinking.
'This might be not exactly the Harry Potter world but an Alternative Universe,' Orion thought and Merlin too nodded but he was not that surprised.
It was Orion's fault for not checking for differences between this world and the cannon Harry Potter World. But Orion still asked to double-check.
"You, by any chance do you have a brother?" Orion asked.
"Hmm no, I don't think that I have one," Rose too sounded pretty confused at the sudden question.
"Oh okay, sorry for the sudden question," Orion said with a smile.
And that was enough to close that subject there. Orion doesn't plan to talk more about it and Rose is too sly to ask more.
"So Rose, I can call you that right?" Orion asked still keeping his smile.
Rose just nodded.
"Are you also a first year ?" Orion asked, already knowing the answer. The second year don't sit in this part of the train.
Rose just nodded again.
"Brilliant, then which house are you planning to go to?" Orion asked curiously.
Rose after hearing this question, looked confused a little.
"Let me guess, you don't know that we are supposed to enter into a house," Orion asked with a pleasant smile.
"No," Rose shook her head, looking down.
"It's fine, I too only know about this because I just happened to talk with upperclassmen when I was standing on the King Cross Station.
There are four houses in total.
Griffendor.
Ravenclaw.
Hufflepuff.
Slytherin." Orion said one by one.
By this time he noticed that Rose lacked confidence. Orion observes Rose carefully, trying to understand what kind of life she would have lived up to this point. And unfortunately, it was still similar to the cannon Harry.
"So, which house are you planning to go to?" Rose Potter suddenly asked.
"Well, there are only two houses which I am interested in going. I either want to go to the Gryffindor or the Ravenclaw," Orion said.
He told the truth. Any other house will hold him back.
Slytherin are all pure-blood bigots while Hufflepuff is just a big no. Nothing against the house but no.
Rose wanted to ask why the Gryffindor or Ravenclaw but before that, a red-haired boy entered the cabin.
Orion knew this guy.
"Hello, can I sit here? There is no other place left," Ron said.
This guy was, of course, Ron Weasley. Orion also noticed that this guy somewhat looked similar to what he remembered from the movies. But it's not exactly the same.
The same was the case with Hermione Granger as well.
"Sure,".
"Sure," Both Rose and Orion said.
Later on, the situation was very similar to what happened in both movies and Books. Ron totally freaks out about the girl who lived.
He then being a kid and an idiot asked whether Rose remembered about that night when she got that scar.
Orion could not help but roll his eyes. He also noticed Rose was uncomfortable after Ron asked this question.
Surely this is a sore subject for her. So Orion decided to change the Subject.
"Let's not talk about that. Tell me Ron, which house are you planning to go to," Orion asked with a smile.
"Gryffindor," a response immediately came.
'I always thought Ron's character is not done justice. But after seeing this, JK. Rowling might be right with his character," Orion thought to himself and the miniature Merlin who was sitting there also nodded.
From that point onwards the normal talk happened. The Train also started and all three of them, four if Merlin is counted, were enjoying.
Rose, just like Harry from Cannon even purchased a lot of candies later on.
"Rose, show me your hand," Orion asked suddenly.
He wanted to check something. Rose who was eating a chocolate frog looked at Orion in confusion.
She did not think much and showed her hands.
Orion knew after one good look that Rose was suffering from malnutrition.
'Not sure about the physical abuse but she sure is not getting much to eat,' Orion thought.
Your body is currently really weak Rose. You need a lot of nutrition," Orion said.
Rose was a little taken aback that Orion noticed that, she didn't know how to answer that.
"One Minute," Orion said and took out his bag. taking something out of it.
He then hands it over to Rose.
"Here, it is a simple potion which I made. It will provide you with the necessary nutrition. I too was very frail before the professor came. Later on, I drank this particular potion for some time. I don't need it anymore as you can see and I have enough that it will last you for the next 2 weeks...," Orion said.
Rose did not say anything, just opened the cap of the bottle and inhaled the bad smell of the potion. Making a weird face.
"I know, I know, it doesn't smell the best and it tastes even worse but it will fix your body. You will be able to carry that big bag of yours, yourself if you take that," Orion after seeing Rose making faces had to put some good words for the potion.
Ron on the side watched this but did not interfere. He knew nothing about potions.
Rose although didn't like the potion smell showed a bright smile when noticed that someone had given her something for her health.
"Thank you, Orion. I will make sure to take this," Rose said with a cute smile and even took a sip then and there.
Orion could practically see her face turning different shades of black, blue and green.
But she drank it nonetheless. Orion gave an 'I know it tastes like shit' smile.
But soon, Rose started to feel the heat. Her body was getting hot it almost felt like she had suddenly bursting with energy.
"This is brilliant," Rose could not help but exclaim.
She has been malnutrition all her life. She always had a lack of energy and power.
But this magical potion just made her awake like this was the first time she had taken a full sleep in a long time.
Orion smiled and was about to ask how she was feeling but at this time, another girl came inside the train cabin.
"And here comes the crush of our future wizard king," Merlin said, teasing Orion.
