Wolves-[A Harry Potter Fanfic]

Everyone was waiting for the arrival of the two schools. In the front row were Dumbledore and Snape. Behind them were the rest of the teachers and the two head boys from Slytherin.

The rest of the students, separated by year, were somewhat more delayed.

Suddenly someone screamed and everyone could see a dot in the sky that was getting closer. When it was close enough everyone recognised a very decorated and beautiful giant horse-drawn carriage that only Hagrid could even dream of riding due to its size.

The response from everyone was varied. The boys were particularly impressed by the size. The girls were thrilled by the beauty of the carriage and the almost ethereal glow on the wings of the large horses.

Shortly afterwards the colossal carriage landed. Once stopped, a young man came out and placed a large staircase to facilitate the exit.

Many held their breath as they watched the stunning woman emerge from the cart. Behind her followed a group of young women dressed in very fine and beautiful clothes.

The two Headmasters exchanged greetings before the French delegation made its way inside.

As the students walked past, many boys could see the beauty of the young French girls. Some even arranged their hair and made it straighter than usual. The boys looked at the smiling Beauxbatons girls and let out a few laughs before whispering amongst themselves.

As soon as the last child entered the castle, a splash was heard from the black lake and everyone could see a ship emerging.

If the French delegation stood out for its beauty, the Durmstrang delegation caused some to feel a certain fear.

The ship looked like it had been rescued from a shipwreck, given the tattered appearance of the masts and sails. Magic was undoubtedly what kept the ship running.

Without any help, the gloomy ship made its way to the shore and let out a wooden bridge so its occupants could disembark.

At the head, a magician covered in furs, like his students, got down and went straight towards those present.

As with Beauxbatons, the Durmstrang pupils followed their headmaster to Dumbledore.

Many were surprised to recognize the young man following the Durmstrang director.

" It's Krum!"

" Victor Krum!"

Within a few seconds, everyone recognized the young Bulgarian seeker.

With the greetings made, everyone entered and the Hogwarts students were allowed to do the same.

The group of friends gathered together.

" What did you think? " Tracey asked.

" Beauxbatons clothes are beautiful! " Astoria replied happily.

" And very light for this climate," Luna added.

" Durmstrang, on the other hand, shows that they are a strong school with few restrictions." added Susan." Did you see how they moved? They seemed like one man."

" Two good entries." Daphne continued." They show part of their power and their strong points." At her side, Susan and Neville nodded in agreement.

"It will be fun," Neville finished.

" My aunt doesn't like all this at all, " added Susan.

" Nobody does." Daphne added." We already know what they think... them." everyone understood the reference.

" Let's leave it! " Luna interrupted them when she noticed a couple of students who remained silent near them. " What is said on the rock, stays on the rock. " They all nodded and without further words, they went inside for dinner.

{SCENE BREAK}

The time until the selection of the champions passed relatively normally.

At Blackrock, the lupinids were progressing very well with their studies.

They had added the Grims to the regular dueling practices. The spells and attacks, fast and unexpected, meant that anyone who faced one of these pairs would be lucky to escape, if they didn't really fight at their full potential.

Filius Flitwick was elated at this. The pairings were simply lethal.

The ones that are most popular are the Potters and, to the surprise of many, Tonks and Pamona.

There was a certain calm at the Ministry, with everyone paying attention to the tournament. An apparent truce had been declared.

Although meetings and lunches continued to take place to discuss common positions.

It could be said that the worst part was being suffered at Hogwarts.

The much-vaunted unity between the three institutions was non-existent.

The Slytherins always tried to be close to some Durmstrang students.

Draco Malfoy had appointed himself their official representative and head of the House of Snakes. It was not unusual to see him near Victor Krum, although, from the look on the Bulgarian's face, the pleasure was not mutual.

Against him, a Ron Weasley with more temper and mouth than ideas. The only thing he had in common with Malfoy was the desire to be close to the Quidditch star.

Beauxbatons was left with the quieter Ravenclaws. Although they remained apart from these as well.

It did not go unnoticed by any of the visitors that there was a strange group of young people from different houses, who remained aloof from everything.

Only when someone messed with one of its members did this motley group act.

It soon became known that all its members, although from different houses, belonged to an alliance that had been formed in the government and was gaining a lot of influence. In the center was a boy and five girls. Around him were five or six other young allies.

You could almost say that they formed their own house within Hogwarts. The most educated could see that the headmaster of Hogwarts himself was not very happy with this group and that even among their own teachers there was a certain… tension.

Amidst petty fights and silly arguments, the day of the champion selection finally arrived.

{SCENE BREAK}

The Halloween dinner was like any other one that was held at school on that date. Everyone liked the decoration of the rooms and the food, as always, was great.

Some of the animosity had been put aside for the night.

Although not the excitement of selecting champions.

After the meal, the Goblet of Fire was brought into the hall and the selection of champions took place.

" Let's begin the sorting! " said Dumbledore standing next to the magical object. Then he touched the base with his wand.

The Goblet of Fire began to bubble with slightly higher flames and suddenly the color of the fire changed before releasing a piece of parchment with a pop. Old Dumbledore caught it in mid-air.

" The Beauxbatons champion is, Fleur Delacrue!" The young Veela stood up amidst forced applause and went where she was told. Again the goblet flashed with a new chosen one." The Durmstrang champion is, Victor Krum!" His classmates began to bang their fists on the table in support of the Bulgarian. The young man went after the French girl. For the third time, the procedure was repeated." Finally, the Hogwarts champion is, Cedric Diggony!" The badgers' table began to cheer and celebrate. The young Quidditch captain stood up smiling and went after his rivals." With this, the selection ends and...!" The goblet shined a fourth time and spat out another piece of parchment. Albus caught it strangely and opened his eyes surprised by what he had written." Harry Potter?!" The whole room fell silent. Except for Draco Malfoy.

" That Dog no longer belongs to Hogwarts!" several snakes and some students from other houses nodded in agreement.

" Who put the parchment in the goblet?!" Snape shouted angrily.

" Severus No!" Albus silenced him.

" But it is…!"

" I don't think a student has enough power to cast the necessary spells to confuse the Goblet of Fire." he finished seriously. He turned and looked at everyone." It seems that something has happened! We will take care of it! I'm sorry that the party ended this way but... that's all for tonight! The champions will receive the necessary information for the first task! The rest return to your common rooms! " The young people left the great hall quickly.

No one noticed a group that quickly went straight to Moaning Myrtle's bathroom.

As soon as Susan arrived, she took out a small mirror.

" Harry! Harry! Are you there?! " She asked the glass. Suddenly the young man's face appeared.

" Hello Susan." he saw the concern on her face." What's wrong?"

" Something strange has happened with the selection of the champions." said the redhead.

" And what do I care? " he said, surprised. " As long as it's not one of you..."

" It's you!" answered Daphne next to Susan." You are the fourth champion!" In the mirror, the green-eyed man looked at them seriously.

" Are you serious? " He asked, still not believing it.

"Yes! Because otherwise why would all call you," added Susan annoyed. In the mirror, Harry looked at his side and nodded.

" Thank you. I'll tell everyone and we'll let you know. " With that, the mirror returned to normal and all the young people looked at each other worriedly.

" This is going to be bad," said Neville.

" Very bad," added Astoria.

" But fun! " a smiling Luna finished.

" We'd better send some owls, " suggested Susan. The rest nodded in agreement.

{SCENE BREAK}

The morning after Halloween night, an emergency meeting was held in the great hall of Blackrock.

What happened at Hogwarts was the only topic to discuss.

" The old man sent me an owl last night." said Andromeda." He says that Harry has to compete or lose his magic." several argued.

" What I don't understand is." Harry began." You know for sure that I didn't put my name down. Why do I have to compete? I didn't agree to this binding contract." He looked at everyone." It shouldn't be possible."

" That's true." added Cyrus Greengrass." But... Are you willing to take the risk?"

" I've spoken to some Unspeakables." Amelia continued." and they all agree that even if you haven't put your name down, it's better for you to compete. The Goblet is a very old object and has a power that is barely understood anymore." She looked at him." I'm against it but... I think you should go to Hogwarts."

" Under the old man's finger again? " he replied.

" Of course not! " Minerva added. " You just have to show up and go to the tests. " she clarified. " You are not a Hogwarts champion and therefore he cannot ask you for anything more."

" Also, our academy has not been formally invited." continued Filius amused." so it is not necessary for us to stay in the castle or near it."

Hermione approached Harry and whispered something in his ear. The boy opened his eyes and smiled mischievously.

" All right, " he replied. " But I think everyone should learn a few things about Sirius Black Academy. Marauder style! " The adults looked at him strangely. Except for three former teachers who remembered that name well.

{SCENE BREAK}

That same afternoon Minerva McGonagall, accompanied by Filius Flitwich and Pomodora Sprout, appeared near the entrance to Hogwarts. With a bang, Andromeda Tonks joined the group and they waited for someone to come and greet them.

Shortly afterwards Severus Snape approached, accompanied by a couple of wizards they didn't know. Surely one of their replacements.

" If you're coming to ask for your old position, I think you're wasting your time, " said the potioneer mockingly.

" We want to speak to the master, not his dog. " Andromeda replied. Snape tensed and his hatred was visible.

" Severus, we would like to have a few words with Albus Dumbledore regarding the tournament and Harry Potter."

" That creature doesn't want to participate out of fear? " he added mockingly.

" Be careful, Death Eater! " Andromeda said. " Unlike you, my lord is the head of two very old and respectable families. Regardless of his current situation, your words could be interpreted as an attack on him and the law is very clear in that case."

The potion maker made a face of disgust and with visible discontent, he made a sign for them to follow him.

The group entered the large hall as soon as dinner began. Many recognized the trio of former teachers. Some even approached them to greet them.

In the end, the three of them stood before Albus Dumbledore sitting at the staff table in all his glory.

" To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit? " he asked politely.

" My apprentice!" Minerva began, so that everyone could hear her." Harry Potter, has been called to compete in this tournament!" murmurs were heard." Although it is not his wish and of course he did nothing to enter!" as she said it she looked angrily at Snape who was muttering under his breath." We are here for him to make an appearance!"

" I'm sorry about everything that happened." said the old man." Rooms will be available in…!"

" Not so fast!" added Filius." The rules state that the champions are obliged to compete and be present at the tests! But they don't have to stay in the castle!" he finished smiling.

" None of our apprentices will be here one minute longer than necessary! " Pomona continued. " They will attend the scheduled events and leave the castle once they are finished! They will not be obliged to meet anyone or give any explanation!"

" Those are our conditions for allowing our apprentices to be near this place! " Minerva spoke up.

" I have made sure that everything is legal and all the necessary information was presented to the Wizengamot!" Andromeda added, while placing some scrolls on the table." Think that due to my lord's special status, it will be something that the ministry will appreciate for the safety of your students!" again the murmurs.

" If we all do our part, I think…" Dumbledore was silenced again.

" We are waiting for your answer! " Minerva interrupted him. " What we are asking for is not negotiable!"

Albus looked at the group. He knew full well that they were all proficient in Occlumency and would be on guard. If he was to have any chance of getting close to the boy he would have to accept.

" Your requests are valid and I appreciate that you take into account everyone's safety! " he said. " I accept!"

" So... Sirius Black Academy of Magical Learning! " Minerva said amused, looking at Snape's annoyed face. " Wants to make its entrance into Hogwarts just like the rest of the institutions! " She looked at the great hall. " Those who wish to witness it, I advise you to leave! I warn you that we have some extraordinary companions, but I would ask you to refrain from trying to attack them! Everything is completely safe and no one will be harmed!"

" As long as these rules are followed! " Andromeda continued " I can assure you that all witnesses will see something they will never forget in their lives!"

With that, the group turned and walked out of the room towards the entrance.

Behind them, all the students and teachers began to follow quickly.

{SCENE BREAK}

Outside the quartet stood forward, looking towards the forbidden forest.

Almost the entire castle was at the door or looking out of a nearby window.

Albus stood at the front alongside the Headmistress of Beauxbatons and the Headmaster of Durmstrang.

At that moment an annoyed Barty Crouch appeared followed by Ludo Bagman.

" What's wrong? Why have I been called here so quickly? " Crouch demanded, annoyed.

" To inform the fourth champion as you did with the others." Andromeda clarified.

The two ministry workers recognized the woman and knew of her fame. They just nodded silently.

Andromeda signaled to Minerva who took out her wand and released a shower of silver sparks.

Shortly after, a spell rose from the forest, with a silver light that stood out in the darkness.

To everyone's surprise, the unmistakable shape of a Grim appeared in the sky above the forest and roared. Before coming to rest in the center of a shield.

Minerva applied a spell to her throat before speaking.

" Don't be afraid, it's our academy's shield! The Grim! " the Scottish woman clarified. " You'll understand soon!"

At that moment, a series of howls began to be heard in the forest, frightening many people. Some even began to enter the castle.

Suddenly, at the very entrance of the forbidden forest, a series of bright lights began to appear, moving in two perfect lines.

The floating lights moved towards the quartet of visitors. As they reached them, they began to shine more brightly, allowing them to clearly see the path they had created.

Then, to everyone's surprise, a couple dressed in black and gray began to emerge from the forbidden forest.

What raised a general cry was when two very recognizable Grims stood next to them.

" Merlin protect us!" said someone." They are…!"

" As I said, it is completely safe! " Minerva said again. " The beings that accompany our apprentices are their familiars! " There was a general murmur from the adults.

The couple began to walk towards those present, with the two Grim following them calmly.

To everyone's surprise, another couple took the place of the first ones and two more Grims appeared beside them. Again the screams and murmurs.

As they began to walk, a new couple took the place of the previous one. And so a group of at least twenty people appeared. Not all of them were accompanied by a Grim and it could be seen that most of them were children between twelve and fifteen years old and that even several Grims were younger than others.

The parade to Hogwarts was strangely beautiful. The Grims escorting the humans and how they all moved in unison between the floating lights was an image they would never forget.

Many backed away as the group approached. Others, braver than them, stayed where they were, but held their wands tightly.

Less than four meters away, many could recognise the first two members of the procession: Harry Potter and Hermione Granger.

Dumbledore was amazed at what he saw. How was such a thing possible? The sight of the two young children next to the Grims gave them an appearance of power that no one could deny. In addition, the curse had given the couple a very visible physical improvement.

The scrawny, bespectacled boy had disappeared. In his place stood a young man with a physique worthy of the best Quidditch player, or Auror, in front of him. At his side, the girl Granger had also achieved a body that many other witches would wish for themselves.

The whistles and voices they heard had managed to attract the attention of more than one wizard and witch in the castle.

He decided to act.

" Mr. Potter, I'm glad to see you." said old Harry just nodded without speaking." And Miss Granger, it's a pleasure to see you again." The girl imitated the young man greeting with only a slight nod." Let's go inside and enjoy dinner." he said gesturing to enter." I'm sure Hagrid will be delighted to take care of his friends."

"She's coming where I'm going," the young man said at last. His voice had also changed, it had a slightly hoarse tone and burst with authority and confidence.

" But I don't think it would be wise for... " he pointed at the Grims " creatures like these to be near so many young people..."

"I doubt you would leave your phoenix out," Hermione snapped.

" It's different, Fawkes is..."

" A familiar like ours!" Harry finished." We won't be staying anyway." He looked at Minerva." Our… headmaster has already agreed on how our interaction will be." He looked at Andromeda." What do I have to do?." He asked. The woman pointed at the wizards of the ministry. The boy and Hermione took a couple of steps towards them.

" Keep those things away from me! " said Crouch. Harry stood up.

" Tell me what I have to do and we will go," he replied.

" The first test is one of courage." answered the ministerial magician." It will begin in a month on the day…"

" Has our condition been taken into account? " asked Hermione. " If any test requires it to be carried out at night, the rules state that the special conditions of the champions must be taken into account. " continued the young woman. " Our lycanthropy can be a problem and I hope it will be taken into account."

" Of course! " Andromeda said. " It would be unfair to give others an unfair advantage. Isn't that right, Mr. Bagman? " he looked at her.

" Huh? Yeah, sure! " he finally answered. " We'll have to check the calendar, but no problem."

" Great." said the boy." If there is any change you can contact me through my guardian Mrs. Tonks." Having said this he looked at his teachers who nodded." If there is nothing else we leave." After saying this he and Hermione turned to leave.

Albus watched the boy leave without being able to stop him. But he thought of another way to relate to him.

" Miss Granger! " he said to get her attention. " I'm sorry I couldn't get in touch with you. I lost all contact with you after the incident. And…"

" Don't talk nonsense Albus!" Minerva cut him off." Do you think we didn't tell him what happened?." The old man fell silent upon hearing her, although he continued in another vein.

" I tried to contact her family since his magic was tied but…"

" Lumos!" Hermione shouted and a bright light came out of her wand." Why would my magic have to be tied?"

" But…"

" You should inform yourself better." she said." Besides, my last name is no longer Granger!" she smiled." It's Potter!" again a great shock for many.

" Two dark creatures getting married! " Malfoy shouted from behind. " How repulsive! The Ministry should do something!"

" Careful, Malfoy! " said Harry. " My familiar and my wife's are not Hippogriffs! They feel the same as us and if they attack it is to tear off your head, not a caress on the arm! " Many took a step back upon hearing this.

" I'm just saying what everyone else is saying! " he tried to recover. " Dark creatures shouldn't be allowed to be among us!"

" Does that include Death Eaters?!" Hermione asked." I mean! We can consider them dark beings that attack and kill respectable wizards!" The girl looked at him innocently." Should they also be treated like werewolves?!" she thought about it." Or better yet! Free the entire community from their horrible presence?!"

" Shut up, blood…!"

" BE CAREFUL DRACO!" Harry shouted." You are about to insult the lady of two great and ancient families!" he said looking at him." You who boast so much about being a pureblood and respecting tradition! Do you remember what it dictates about something like this?!" everyone could see how the boy's eyes almost seemed to radiate their own light." If you couldn't beat me before, how do you intend to beat me now!" the blond tensed but remained silent.

" Just like his father, a…!" Snape began.

" You are no longer my professor!" Harry told him." I advise you to measure your words before referring to a lord of two families!" he smiled." As you are not on my level!" everyone could see how the potioneer made real efforts not to respond." Careful Snape, I am not the same!" he looked at him." I have power, resources and I know how to use them! You do not want to cross my path!"

" Harry, I think that…" Dumbledore tried to smooth things over. But the green-eyed man silenced him.

" I haven't given you permission to refer to me with that familiarity!" he said. With that he made a sign and all the young people and Grims began to run towards the forest." I'll see you at the first task." With that, he and Hermione followed the rest at high speed, along with their relatives.

" Damn, that's fast! " someone said.

" Werewolves." someone's voice was heard with hatred.

Minerva and the rest had enjoyed the show and how the young man had handled it. Few would have any doubts about the young man's abilities. Though the best thing was that he hadn't shown any. They would have to fear what they didn't know, but knew existed.

When the couple disappeared into the forest the floating lights disappeared leaving the entrance with the little light that the teachers had conjured where the students were.

The Scotswoman decided it was time to leave. A nod from her companions told her they agreed.

" We will wait for your news." With that, she and the others began to walk away.

" Minerva, please." the old man began." Can we talk?" he asked her.

" NO!" She said simply before continuing on her way.

As they left the Hogwarts barriers, the four of them disappeared.

In the castle, everyone began to enter without stopping talking about what they had seen.

" It's incredible! " they said. " They were Grims and we are still alive!"

" But we may die soon." said another.

" It can't be! Then they would have died already."

" But they are werewolves! Maybe it's different for them."

" Or maybe what they say about the Grims isn't true."

There were many stories going around among the students. About the Grims, about Harry Potter's incredible appearance, or about the incredible body that the bookworm Granger had gotten. Although when someone told them that she was now Potter, no one said anything again for fear of having to face the boy. They all looked at Malfoy at the thought. No one blamed him. Harry Potter seemed like an all-powerful warlord, when he shut him up.

In the director's office, the story was different.

Snape kept throwing a thousand insults at the last Potter.

Dumbledore, on the other hand, remained silent, thinking about what he had seen and heard.

" Albus!"

" Excuse me! What were you saying? " said the old man reacting.

" I asked you about What are we going to do with those beasts?" the Slytherin asked annoyed.

" The Grim are the fa…"

" I meant Potter and his whore! " he corrected him.

" Careful, Severus! " the old man replied. " What the boy said is true. If he wants, they can have you locked up. Werewolf or not! " the potioneer sat down annoyed. " Who would have thought that he would marry her to save her? This is Minerva's doing. I'm sure she convinced her parents to do it. If she had gotten to them sooner..."

" Didn't you see the woman who was with them? " added Snape. " She was like the bookworm's older sister. I'd say she's her mother " the old man reacted.

" So how could they see Hogwarts? " the old man asked, let alone get in.

" They came with one of the Grims, " Snape replied. " Perhaps the animals' magic is enough to allow her access."

" I don't know." He stood up and went to the pensieve." I have a lot to think about."

Snape left the old man to analyze his memories.

{SCENE BREAK}

The incredible arrival of Sirius Black Academy was the main topic of conversation that morning. The spectacle and the spectacular appearance of two of their former classmates.

More than one young woman sighed when the name Harry Potter was mentioned. The boys, on the other hand, smiled when they remembered the Granger girl, or rather Potter.

A group of friends remained a little further away from the whirlwind of comments.

In a way they had managed to get away from it all and they liked it. They just had to endure the stares of the headmaster and the potions teacher.

Many owls arrived with the prophet. The previous night's news was in the newspaper. Some parents had written to their children asking for more information about what had happened.

The Prophet only gave the version of the two ministerial wizards present: Bartemius Crouch and Ludo Bagman. It also added a couple of other versions from some students, from Slytherin. Comments from some respectable wizards about the danger of the situation were present throughout the article.

Some even openly demanded that the boy and the other… dark beings be destroyed for the good of wizarding society. On the ministry side… the minister's undersecretary made a comment about the danger of associating dark creatures with our young people.

At Hogwarts, the Slytherins were in complete agreement and raised their voices trying to convince some more.

On the island, they read the article with some annoyance at the comments from the people at the Ministry. On the other hand, Harry and Hermione remained calm, as did most of the adults, it was just what they expected.

" Aren't you saying anything?! " asked Julius Somerset.

" About what?." Harry asked.

" About these lies!" The prophet thrown at him." Why are you not angry?!"

" We are." the boy replied. Many looked at each other without understanding.

" Then why aren't you doing anything?!" the young man asked again.

" What?" asked Hermione." Go to the Ministry, transform, and tear them all apart?! Give them more reasons to consider us dark creatures!" the boy thought about it and sat down.

" Don't be mistaken! " Harry continued. " We're not happy about this! But we have to put up with this nonsense. We're not ready to show ourselves to the world."

" Knowing how they treated you in the past." Filius continued." Why are you surprised? The corruption in the ministry is like that. Frankly, it would have been strange if they hadn't published any of this!" some laughed at the joke.

" Sorry, " the young man said at last. " I went crazy reading what they say about us."

" I know and I understand you." answered Harry." That's why we have to work harder on our training. The only thing we can do to survive and prosper is to be patient and prepare." he looked at Julius." Our time will come." all the young men nodded.

In his mind, Julios Somerset could see the truth of the green-eyed man's words.

He also understood why Harry Potter was the alpha of this pack.
