《Fun and magic》


 Chapter 1-Chicken wings

    Jason Riley was playing with his stick in


    the yard.


    "Hey Narrator, fix that sus sentence," Jason yelled stupidly into the air. He had always been an odd child .


    "Your mother''s odd," again, but this time he just looked dumb.


    "Your moth-"


    ''Shut up, or in the next chapter I''ll say you were born without a dick.''


    "...."


    Jason Riley was playing with his stick in the yard, it was no ordinary stick though. It was as white as snow with beautiful branch like engravings carved on it, and about 10 inches long with an odd handle at the end.


    He always felt it looked familiar, it had been with him since he was born. If he closed his eyes he could see it, and feel it, deep inside of him. All he had to do was will it, and it would appear.


    That was normal to him, weird things. He knew he was different, he could pull and push things without touching them, and when he cried as a baby, furniture would always revolve around the room.


    But he never questioned his abilities(neither did his parents, which he did find weird) , he just thought he was psychic.


    "Your thoughts are optimistically stupid, you could''ve been the spawn of satan you know. " (Narrator)


    "The thought has crossed my mind, but then i realized. I''m just too handsome to be a demon." (Jason, smiling smugly at himself in the mirror at the age of 2.)


    Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit."..." (Narrator)


    So all he did as he grew older was learn how to control it.


    You see Jason knew he didn''t belong here, he had been reincarnated, and with all his previous memories intact. In his previous life, he had died from a freak accident(Falling from a cliff, right into the branches of an old ugly tree). He died on impact.


    So imagine how surprised he was when he found himself crying in the arms of a beautiful young woman(he calls her mom now).


    When he couldn''t move on his own yet(baby limbs are useless-Jason),he always stared at the "stick" in his mind,and when he turned 2, he could summon it into his hand(he played conductor with his teddies).


    Then at 6, he finally knew what this "stick" was. When he was climbing the tree in his front yard (he always loved trees), he saw a scrawny, black haired boy sleeping on the neighbors grass. The boy had round rimmed glasses on his face, and clothes that were way too big for him, with an odd shaped scar on his forehead.


    It all came to him then, he started trembling in excitement. Jason knew exactly who the boy was, where he was, and what his "stick" was. It wasn''t a stick, it was a wand.


    And This was the Ha-


    "I''m in Harry Potter bitches!" he screamed, standing up on the branch he was sitting on and waking Harry, who looked at him curiously.


    In all Jason''s excitement, he forgot that he was still in a tree, the branch couldn''t take his weight anymore. It broke, Jason flapped his arms wildy as he fell.


    "All the flapping in the world wouldn''t turn you into a bird. "(Narrator)


    When he hit the ground, the last thing he saw before he lost consciousness was Harry, looking over him just as curiously, but also with a hint of worry in his eyes.

 Chapter 2-Adventure

    When Jason woke up he saw a familiar ceiling.


    "What happened?", he asked no one in particular.


    "You fell from a tree, it''s a miracle you didn''t break anything." Jason started, he didn''t expect to get a reply, he looked around and finally found the culprit. A black haired boy with an odd-shaped scar on his forehead.


    "Oh it''s little Harry, did you carry me back here, i didn''t expect your small body to have so much power. What a good seedling," Jason praised Harry as an elder would praise a child.


    Harry felt awkward, he had never met a person as odd as the one in front of him, in fact he had little contact with his same age peers, what with him being trapped under a staircase constantly. But also thanks to that, he didn''t immediately rush out of the room in the face of Jason''s quirky personality.


    "It wasn''t me, Mr. Riley carried you," he answered.


    But there was something bothering him, so he couldn''t help but ask, "I''m sorry but how do you know my name?", yes he always thought it odd, why would this boy he had never met before suddenly shout his name from a tree.This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon.


    In fact Jason was too excited before, he forgot that he had never met Harry, so he couldn''t possibly know his name.


    But he was quick witted so he immediately countered, "Well with all that screaming next door, how could i not know your name.


    Harry found the explanation made sense, since the Dursleys always found trouble with him.


    When Jason saw Harry believe him he couldn''t help but think, ''Kid you''re too tender, but don''t worry I''ll beat you hard, pah i mean temper you''.


    "Well enough about that Harry, lets go on an adventure", Jason said eagerly, getting out of bed and patting Harry on the shoulders.


    Harry was hesitant, he couldn''t be out for too long or he''ll get in trouble, but looking at Jason''s shining eyes, he couldn''t reject.


    "Ok, where are we going?", he asked eager to play.


    "A very dangerous place, once you go in you lose all sense of time. And before you even realize what''s wrong, the day''s already over."


    Jason answered solemnly.


    Harry eyes were already shining with fear and expectation, he had never been on an adventure before, so he really looked forward to this one. But just when he stood up, Jason''s answer made him fall directly back on his seat.


    " Toilet, imma take a shit, you go read a book or something, peace."


    And with that he walked off.

 Chapter 3-Dudley Doodoo-ley

    And so the years passed...


    "Happy birthday Jason! ", Harry and the Riley''s exclaimed with bright smiles on their faces.


    It was Jason''s 11th birthday today, the Dursleys had allowed Harry to come, just to get him out of the house. They had been getting a lot of mail lately, he knew what it said already, as Jason already got his letter.


    They were to be students at Hogwarts, school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry knew Jason would go, he just wasn''t sure if he could. He knew the Dursleys would never pay to put him there, so all he could do was pray for a miracle.


    Jason kept telling him not to worry, but Harry was indeed anxious, he would take any chance to get away from the Dursleys.


    Harry had known Jason for 5 years now.


    Jason was the smartest person he knew, even compared to adults, he taught him alot of things, even how to better control his abilities.


    Harry was suprised at first, and then ecstatic since he felt he wasn''t alone anymore, not the only "freak". He was astonished to find out though that Jason never lost control of his abilities, and never made random accidents happen. But Jason gladly taught him, it took Harry 2 years to stop the accidents though, whereas Jason took only half a year(in his own words). Harry knew then how truly talented Jason was.


    Though talented as he was, he seemed to have a knack for mischief. Which brought Harry no little trouble.


    Like that one time...


    ****


    It was Harry''s seventh birthday, learning from those previous, he didn''t expect much.


    Jason had a different idea though, this was his first birthday with Harry Potter, they had to celebrate, or there should at least be cake.


    Jason couldn''t help but laugh evilly.


    ****


    Jason''s mother, Mabel Riley, ran an at-home hair salon.


    In her free time, when she wasn''t teaching Jason how to play the piano, she made cakes and pastries.


    She tried a new recipe everyday, and constant practice(plus a little motherly love) made her cakes unnaturally delicious. Which the whole Privet drive could attest to, including the Dursleys.


    Mrs Riley was currently baking scones in the kitchen.


    "Mum, could you show me how to bake a cake? It''s Harry''s birthday. "Jason


    "You want to bake it yourself? Don''t you hate doing something yourself? " Mrs Riley asked suspiciously.


    He indeed hated such things, he always felt that if someone else could do it for you, why should you do it yourself.


    Don''t misunderstand him though, even though Jason was a lazy prick, when he sets his mind on something he sees it through to the end. Like baking this cake.


    "It''s for Harry mum, i want to surprise him. " He lied without a change in facial expression.


    Mrs Riley agreed in the end, even though she felt like there was more to the story. She knew him to be mischievous.Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.


    ****


    She and her husband Vincent, had noticed that Jason was different from other kids. He was more intelligent, on a scary level. He never cried as a baby, he had started speaking when he was seven months old and from an early age they had always seen him reading books too complicated for his age.


    They were shocked when he started floating things around him at first, but they quickly accepted it. Mrs Riley''s grandmother was a witch after all, so when he started doings "things" that couldn''t be explained, Mrs Riley quickly persuaded Mr Riley that it was normal, or as normal as wizards could be. They never told Jason what he was though, hence why he found out so late.


    They tried to put him in school at first, but they had to pull him out the second day when he called the teacher an "idiotic mouthbreather who only wastes space and air" and made her cry. He got a scolding of course, and a few belt lashes, but he still insisted that he was only speaking the truth. So all they could do was helplessly except his quirkiness


    Jason also felt helpless though, he came from a more modern earth after all, where entertainment was only a few clicks away. He had a hard time adjusting at first, but he quickly cheered up, and busied himself with other things.


    Like reading, he always hated it before, but he loved it now, he had discovered that he only needed to glance at something once to remember it. If he closed his eyes, he could see exactly what it looked like, as if it was taken with a camera. He had also taken up many different instruments, like guitar, violin and piano. His dad had even taught him how to make his own guitar(His Grandfather was a guitar maker).


    Ever since he found out where he was, he had tried casting all the spells he could remember from the movies. But he never succeeded, the wand wasn''t responding at all. He could only wait till he got to Hogwarts to try again.


    ****


    After half an hour, Mrs Riley''s cake was done. Jason had convinced her to first bake one to show him how it''s done, He had asked her for half of it, and she put the other half in the fridge for later.


    After that it was Jason''s turn, he only got the third one right, which resembled his mother''s so muched thst she praised him to no end, but what Mrs Riley didn''t see was, when she wasn''t paying attention, Jason put his own ingredients inside...


    Jason quickly went over to the Dursleys, cake in hand, and asked for Harry. Petunia wanted to chase him away at first, but seeing Dudley salivating over the cake she agreed begrudgingly. Harry was let out from his room, and now Him, Jason and Dudley sat around the dining table...


    Seeing the delicious cake and hearing that Jason baked it himself, Harry couldn''t help but tear up.


    "Jason you didn''t have to you know. " Harry said emotionally.


    "I know but I wanted to, now eat... Wait! ", when he saw Harry reach out he quickly stopped him and whispered "Eat from this side. "


    Harry looked at him suspiciously, but still complied.


    Jason just sat there staring at Dudley, seemingly waiting for something. And then a smile gradually surfaced on his face. When Harry saw Jason''s odd smile, he couldn''t help but look up as well, what he saw was Dudley, who''s face was turning blue as if he was holding his breath


    "Whats wrong with Dudley?" Harry asked.


    "Who knows, maybe he''s backed up." When Jason said that, his smile grew even wider.


    Harry looked at him in confusion, and just when he wanted to asked again, it happened...


    It came in a long wet sound, Jason thought it sounded like water blowing out of a trumpet.


    And after that, the smell, like month-old milk, wafting into their noses.


    Yes, Dudley, thanks to the decent amount of laxatives thatJason had put into the cake(or Dudley''s part) had turned the chair into his toilet.


    Jason was ecstatic, he hadn''t thought it would work so well, and so fast too.


    "Hahahahaha, you shat your pants so hard that you lifted an inch from the chair. ", he exclaimed.


    Though he was shuddering inside


    ''A weapon of mass destruction, he could take over the world if he had enough shit to waste'' Jason thought.


    Harry was horrified, he didn''t know what to do, he wanted to laugh too, but he knew Dudley would never let him off.


    But seeing the miserable Dudley, running off with dripping pants, he couldn''t help but laugh as well.


    After that, Dudley went so much that he dehydrated himself. Harry was locked up for a week, though Jason did break him out the second day, but that''s a story for another day.


    ****


    Harry''s birthday was a month away now, while he was thinking about Hogwarts, Jason had his own problems as well.

 Chapter 4-Nutcracker

    Jason''s 11 birthday felt different to him.


    He felt different, not a good different though.


    The whole day he had a constant headache, an awful biting pain that only seemed to get better when he moved around, he had to dance to no music a lot today.


    And his body, it felt unusually heavy, like someone had put bricks into his pockets.


    He tried not to show it though, he didn''t want his parents and Harry to worry. After all, he had never gotten sick before, not even a cold. If he suddenly told his parents he felt ill, they would immediately take him to the hospital to check if there was some new type of hybrid virus in the air.


    So all he could do was endure.


    When he finally went to bed that night, he felt like he had been through a war, no a slaughter, where the soldiers stab twice just to make sure you''re dead.


    ****


    That night he dreamt of Ancient trees, a forest full. And dinosaurs roaming through them. All of them were piously facing this behemoth of a tree, towering to the sky, it''s oldest branches thick enough to rival the oldest oak. And right at the bottom, where they were the thinnest, he saw a beautiful snow white branch that looked oddly familiar.


    ****


    When Jason woke up the next morning, he felt a whole lot better;no, he felt reborn. As if he had used all those bricks in his pocket to build a house. The only problem was...


    "How the fuck did I get up here! "


    Yes, Jason was currently floating, no, his bed was floating, no... Well you get the picture. Everything in his room, from his cupboard to his bookcase, was dangling in the air, as if gravity didn''t exist here.


    "I haven''t lost control over my magic in years, what''s the deal. " he murmured to himself.


    But just then Jason heard a voice, "Get me the fuck down from here you #%@$. " It said. Jason looked around incomprehensibly.


    Am i going crazy now? Are the gods punishing me cause I''m too handsomeIf you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.


    "Get me down from here you $@%#%#" He heard the inappropriate voice again. This time he was sure where it came from. He looked to his left, and what he saw made him scream for his mother like the little bitch he was.


    "Eeeek, demon! Mommyyy! Help there''s a demon in my room. "


    His parent''s room were right across from his, so they came in as soon as they heard his call.


    "Honey what''s wro-, Wha! Why''s your furniture floating again? " Mrs Riley exclaimed.


    Mr Riley just stood on the side, wanting to laugh at the funny fighting pose his son was making. He and Mrs Riley could never get over their son''s unnatural fear of spiders, or anything creepy-crawly. They did find it refreshing though, since Jason already feared so little things, at least it made him a little more normal.


    "Quick mum, kill it. " Jason said again.


    "Calm down honey it''s just a spider. " Mrs Riley said with an unnatural expression on her face.


    "No mum you don''t understand, its really a demon. It''s speaking can''t you hear it... There listen, it''s calling me a little bit-"


    "Language mister! " Mr Riley said with authority.


    "Its over! "Jason said miserably, "Spiders are speaking! The world''s ending... No! It can''t end like this, yes you''re patient zero! If i kill you, the world would be saved! " Saying that Jason reached under his pillow and pulled out his trusty stick(covering up the fact of where it''s really kept), And pointing it straight at the floating spider.


    "Say your prayers demonspawn, your reign of terror ends here! " You couldn''t blame Jason for his exaggerated actions though, say you feared spiders your whole life, but it doesn''t affect you that much, because hey, at least it can''t talk right? . But then, suddenly when you wake up, one''s floating beside your head, shouting profanities left and right. Wouldn''t that be one''s worst nightmare?


    Seeing him pull out what looked like a wand to her(and to any who knew about magic) , Mrs Riley shouted hastily.


    "Jason Riley, put down that thing right this instant. "


    "Don''t worry mum it''s just a stupid stick, it doesn''t even work. I''m just trying to scare it. " he reassured her.


    "I can hear you, you #%@*$. " The spider just when on again.


    "Shut up foul beast, your end is near. " Saying that, he called out a spell.


    "Kaaaaa-meeeee--"


    Stop stop stop, you can''t use that here idiot


    "Cough, sorry wrong one. " Jason said, duly embarrassed. He quickly called out a different one though.


    "Deck the halls,


    Break the walls.


    Come one Barbie


    Bust his balls. "


    ...


    "See mum, nothing happened it''s just a broken sti--"


    But before he could finish his sentence, a dark red light shone on the tip of the stick, and under the stunned gazes of Jason, Mrs Riley and Mr Riley hit the spider head on, illicitting a scream so painful that even his parents could hear it. (only a scream though )


    "Aaaaaahhh, you bastard, you crushed my balls! " Cried it''s pain filled voice.


    Jason was dumbfounded, he hadn''t expected this broken thing to suddenly work, and it really busted balls. What a wonder!


    Jason quickly snapped out of his reverie though, all because he heard a voice that sent cold shivers right down to his soul...


    The voice of death.

 Chapter 5-Truly Demonic

    "Jason honey~~" Mrs Riley sung, with a kind smile one her face.


    But when Jason saw her smile, he had the urge to jump out the window. Mr Riley also slowly backed away from her, as if facing a sleeping lion.


    "Yes mum? " Jason feigned calmness.


    "Didn''t I tell you to put that thing down? " She said, with more menace in her voice


    "Yeah, who knew it would work though, isn''t it cool mum. " Jason said, glancing at his father furtively, who only looked away in the face of Jason''s pleading eyes.


    "Cool he says. " She was about to snap now, Jason could tell. So he made the choice that any boy in this situation would do.


    Run...


    Jason swiftly jumped down from his bed and made a break for the window. Where he threw it open and decisively jumped out. Now, what you should know is that Jason''s room was on the second floor...


    Luckily there was a big tree right outside, which he agilely clung to and climbed down from.


    He could here his mother shout for him to stop from inside the house, but Jason gritted his teeth, and as soon his feet landed, he dashed madly around the house and straight down the street.


    He didn''t have a destination in mind, he couldn''t go to Harry''s, the Dursleys had been iffy lately thanks to the constant stream of letters coming in for Harry. So all he could do was run.


    But when Jason was about halfway to the end of the street, he suddenly thought,


    Wait, aren''t I making things worse...


    He in fact was, if he had stayed, and faced his punishment like a man. His mother surely would have left some leeway, but now...


    No mercy


    I''m dead, finished, might as well just commit seppuku


    But he was already riding the tiger...


    Jason decided to just go to the park nearby, where he sat on a nearby swing. But when he sat down, he heard two arguing voices, he was startled, when he got here he hadn''t seen anyone close by so how come he''s hearing voices now.


    He quickly looked to where the voices came from, and what he saw and heard made him speechless.


    It was two squirrels, who looked exactly the same, quarreling over a nut.Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings.


    Squirrel #1: "I saw it first. "


    Squirrel #2: "So everything you see is yours? "


    Squirrel #1: "Of course! "


    Squirrel #2: "That tree? " (points to a still growing tree)


    Squirrel #1: "Mine! "


    Squirrel #2: "That Bush? "


    Squirrel #1: "Mine! "


    Squirrel #2: "Even that piece of chocolate? "(Points to dog poop)


    Squirrel #1: (hesitating) "What''s chocolate? "


    Squirrel #2: "A delicious thing made by humans, but since you''re hesitating then I guess it''s not yours right? Then I''ll take it "


    With that he walked off towards the "chocolate".


    Squirrel #1: "Wait that''s mine too"


    Squirrel #2: "Well you''re making this hard for me, tell you what. We''ll trade, I''ll take this nut and I''ll give you that chocolate" squirrel #2 said, with a regrettable expression on his face.


    When Squirrel #1 saw the expression on the others face, he clearly thought the "chocolate" was a good thing. So he immediatly agreed.


    "Sure, thanks pal. Don''t worry next time we can share the chocolate "


    Squirrel #2: (with a hopeful expression) "Really? "


    Squirrel #1: "Really! "


    Squirrel #2: "Thanks pal, you''re a real star. " And with that he quickly took his nut and ran off. Leaving #1 happily smiling and walking off towards his "chocolate".


    Jason was amazed


    What a treacherous little guy


    Anyway, he had by now accepted the fact that he could speak to animals, it wasn''t that bad after all, he could do a lot of things with this power. Only he couldn''t turn it off. But he thought that as soon he got at Hogwarts, he could maybe find some sort of spell or potion to control it.


    After about an hour of swinging and listening to all the secrets the little animals knew, and stupidly shared. Jason''s stomach started grumbling. He decided to go home...


    Jason cautiously stepped through the front door, but when he turned his back to close it, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes, boring into him. He looked back and saw his mother, a few inches away staring down at him with a playful smirk on her face.


    And it was at that moment that he knew, he fucked up.


    Miserable screams could be heard for the next few minutes from the Riley''s home.


    Jason, butt beaten red, wobbled up the stairs like a defeated soldier.


    Dammit, what a witch. I''m her own son, couldn''t she have been more lenient. Jason thought,  crestfallen Now i have to sit on a donut the rest of the day


    When Jason got back to his room, he saw all his furniture still floating, as well as the spider. When he saw the spider he instantly got mad. He immediately went straight to his bookself and took down a magazine, rolling it up he prepared to strike, his hatred overcoming his fear.


    "Dammit, it''s all your fault you stupid creature. They took my wand away! "


    *wack*


    "They beat my butt! ".


    *wack*


    "They even- Wait why are you crying? "Jason stopped, staring suspiciously at the resilient spider on the ground.


    He heard it''s crying voice screaming.


    "You took my balls, and you beat me afterwards. Wuuuu~~"


    Jason felt kind of sorry for the spider, he had indeed been unreasonable. Doing all that to it just because he was scared.


    I''m a monster, a cruel judging monster.


    Jason thought sadly...


    But then he heard the spiders voice again.


    "You mother#%@%, I''ll get you I tell you. I can''t breed but I''ll adopt, and I''ll tell all my spider children to piss on you, they should infest your house and breed wherever they can. We''ll make your life a living He-"


    *wack*


    "Welp, guess it was a demon huh. "


    " ... "

 Chapter 6-K.O

    Jason and his parents were currently standing inside a dark, dingy pub.


    The Leaky Cauldron...


    ****


    After that whole fiasco with the spider, Jason had his wand taken away until he started attending Hogwarts. He could call it back but he knew if he did that and his mother found out, there would be Hell to pay.


    So he could only sulk and wait till school starts to find out why it suddenly worked. He was excited about something else though, he would be going to Diagon Alley tomorrow.


    He had wanted to go with Harry, but the Dursley''s had still taken him away. But Jason wasn''t worried, he knew Hagrid would fetch Harry and take him there him.


    Based on the movie''s timeline, he should''ve been there by now,  Jason thought.


    Jason had a hard time sleeping that night.


    ****


    So here they were, Jason just wanted to run off already, but Mrs Riley, knowing her son''s thoughts stopped him.


    "Mum let me go please, it''s boring to stay with you. " he pleaded.


    "Jason, you don''t even have any money. And we''re not here for fun, we''re only here to get you your supplies." Mrs Riley said sternly and Mr Riley agreed. They weren''t poor or anything, but they knew they couldn''t just give Jason money, as if he had it, he would surely spend it on the most ridiculous of things.


    Jason was downtrodden, in fact he had wanted to go to knockturn to get a few books on black magic. But since his parents were here, and the wizard who led them here(let''s call him bob) , he knew it would be impossible. So he could only sulkily follow him.


    They were on there way to Gringotts, when Jason suddenly saw a sign that caught his attention.


    "Mum, did you bring my wand", Jason asked his mother quietly.


    "I did, but you''re not getting it. " Mrs Riley said


    "Please, mum. Look i just want to see if we can find it''s owners " Jason said, pointing at Ollivanders across from him.


    Mrs Riley hesitated when she saw the sign, but she still gave the wand in the end. Jason had told her he had picked it up. She knew it was a wand since her grandmother always carried hers around, so she had always thought that maybe some child had dropped it accidently.This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.


    If they could find it''s owner, that would be for the best. Of course she didn''t know it was Jason''s in the first place.


    So Jason took his wand and went off to Ollivanders. When he opened the door, the first  thing that went through his mind was, so many boxes. The place was full of boxes, and Jason knew in every single one of them was a wand, which amazed him to no end.


    As he was observing the place, an aged voice passed into his ears.


    "I remember every single wand I''ve ever sold, and everyone I''ve sold it to, but I''ve never seen you before my young friend. But must be new to the wizarding world for correct? "


    "Yeah, the name''s Jason Riley mister. "Jason said, not too startled by the sudden voice. Since he already knew this guy was weird.


    "Oh, Mr Riley is it. Well then how can I help you today? I have lots of wands here that I''m sure would love to be in your hands. "


    Jason raised his eyebrow at that, what did that mean? Am i such a casual person hmph. But he still respectfully answered.


    "No old wizard, I''m here to ask you about this wand here, " as he said that he pulled out his wand from his pocket.


    Jason saw that when Mr Ollivander the wand, his eyes started sending out curious glows.


    Yes, marvel puny wizard. This is the wand of a true master. He thought conceitedly, forgetting that the broken stick only seemed to start working a month ago .


    When Mr Ollivander picked up the wand, his hand started shivering, and a glow so intense shone in his eyes that Jason thought they were going to shoot laser beams.


    "Marvelous, truly and utterly marvelous. Mr Riley, may I be rude as to ask where you found this wand. "


    "I picked it up at a river, it had floated from the waters to the shore, and i thought it looked cool so i took it. But since i found out it was a wand, i thought maybe someone lost it. So i wanted to find out who the owner was. " Jason lied, as if the truth was his nemesis.


    "Yes yes, I see... " Mr Ollivander said as if trying to get his wording correct. "Mr Riley, this wand has never belonged to anyone before. "


    Jason showed confusion on his face, but in his heart he was thinking


    Of course it never belonged to anyone before, i just said before that I''m not a casual person, neither is my wand.


    But he still respectfully asked, "What do you mean old wandy? " Well, as respectfully as he could.


    "You see Mr Riley, this wand was naturally made! " Mr Ollivander said, a bit excitedly.


    "Natural made? " Now Jason was really confused, he new what the term meant, he just never linked it to a wand.


    "Yes, one out of a million. Something so rare it borders on mythical, a wand made by nature. And something truly intriguing is, the wood that made this wand, seems to be older than a million years! "


    Well, damn. Seems like I''ve been seeing a loli baba.


    Jason couldn''t believe it, as the wand still seemed so new. But he still had to ask.


    "Well can i use it? "


    "Yes in fact, in this world, only you could ever wield this wand! Anyone else and... " Saying so Mr Ollivander muttered something and flicked the wand gently. A white light started glowing on the tip, and just as Jason thought the spell would work, the light reversed suddenly, hitting Mr Ollivander straight in the chest and sending him tumbling towards his countertop, blood seeping from the corners of his mouth. The wand flipped in the air and landed straight in Jason''s hand again.


    Jason was startled and wanted to quickly run up and help.


    "Old wandy are you okay? "


    But just as Jason got to Mr Ollivander, wand still in hand, an untimely, horrified voice sounded out behind him.


    "What are you doing! "


    With bushy brown hair, a cute angular face and bright intelligent eyes.


    Hermione Granger.


    " ...Fuck. "

 Chapter 7-Protect and attack!

    Fuck, why''s she here


    Jason thought. He knew she was one to punish evil and reward the good, which he found admirable. Just this situation was a bit wrong.


    "Uhm I can explain. " Jason never thought he would ever say that line. He always found it stupid how MC''s always found themselves in these situations.


    How ironic, he thought bitterly.


    "Explain what? There''s an unconscious old man lying on the ground, and you''re holding a wand. It''s awfully self explanatory to me. " with that she prepared to call for help. Like the little snitch she was.


    Jason couldn''t let that happen though, or he had to at least stall till the old bat woke up to explain the situation. So he quickly moved forward and tried to clamp her mouth shut.


    But when Hermione saw Jason moving forward, she thought he was trying to attack her. So she moved backwards, just, because she panicked she tripped and fell instead.


    Reaching out instinctively she grabbed on to Jason who was already in front of her, carrying him with her.


    Now, Jason wasn''t a tall person as he hadn''t matured yet, he and Hermione were basically the same height. So as they fell backwards Jason''s lips fell directly onto hers.


    Soft, he thought. And warm.


    Her thoughts were the same, then she quickly regained them. She grew flustered real quick and tried to push him away, but, all Jason''s weight was on her, so as an 11 year old, her strength just wasn''t enough.


    Jason quickly lifted his head though and looked directly into her eyes.


    Beautiful Brown, like her messy hair.


    He then madly shook his head, he was horrified now.


    How could two accidents happen on the same fucking day, there''s something wrong with this old coots shop.


    He wasn''t complaining about the kiss though, just the way it happened. It irked him that his second first-kiss got taken away just like that.


    He couldn''t take it out on Hermione though, it was both their faults after all, but seeing her bright red face, out of either anger or embarrassment, he decided to tease her.


    "You, you, You pervert. You stole my first kiss. Damnit my purity is gone." Jason said indignantly


    Hermione was dumbfounded, that was her first kiss too, she hadn''t even thought about talking about that right now, but this bastard had already blamed her for taking his purity away, what a rogue.


    "Get off me you hooligan, Help! Help! He attacked someone, Help!" She started struggling again, she hadn''t forgotten that he has just attacked someone. What if he tried to silence her because she saw something she shouldn''t have?


    Jason was exasperated, he''s teasing didn''t work so what now.


    He could only really play the evil wizard.If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.


    "Shut up, or I''ll apparate half of your body to stone henge. " Jason said fiercely


    Hermione immediately shut up, in her eyes this boy with the messy black hair in front of her was really a dark wizard. Looking at his fierce eyes, she could only helplessly keep quiet.


    Jason, seeing Hermione being obedient, got a little excited actually. He found it kind of fun playing the thug wizard. So he immediately got into his role passionately.


    "Good. Haha, little wizard. You should feel honored. You''re in the presence of the future''s greatest dark wizard. Lord Voldiesnort doesn''t hold a candle to my terror... "


    Jason lost himself in his passionate speech, so much so that he didn''t notice a person coming into the store.


    That person was shocked by the scene in front of him. Seeing the wandmaker lying on the floor possibly dead, and the boy laying on top of a girl with his wand pointed at her, and listening to his mad ramblings about death eaters and He-who-must-not-be-named. Passerby nr 1 immediately realized the danger, and quickly ran out to call the guards of Gringotts for help.


    ****


    Mr and Mrs Riley had just recieved Jason''s galleons, when Passerby nr1 ran in. The man sounded anxious, explaining about how a boy was holding a young girl hostage, how he possibly killed someone and how he was claiming to be more fearsome than the death eaters and a whole bunch of crap.


    The Rileys didn''t care that much, they thought it was just some trouble in the wizarding world, which they wouldn''t even be a part of, if it wasn''t for Jason. So they just walked on, but when they heard it was happening at Ollivanders they immediately questioned Passerby nr 1


    And when Passerby nr 1 explained to them what the boy looked like, Mrs Riley immediately blanched, and ran off after the guards, Mr Riley in tow.


    When they got there, the guards had already entered and blocked off the door. So they could only anxiously wait outside, and hope Jason didn''t get hurt or behave like he usually did.


    ****


    Jason was startled when a lanky man in a wizarding robe suddenly rushed in. Hermione looked like she saw her saviour though, so she immediately shouted.


    "Help! He''s mad, he hurt the old wandmaker and he--" she was cut off by Jason''s hand on her mouth.


    Jason was really anxious now, this wasn''t that big of a deal, until this bushy haired girl came barging in and blowing everything out of proportion.


    He quickly wanted to explain himself, seeing as the wizard was pointing his wand at him. So he raised his hands, seemingly in surrender.


    "Uhm, officer this is a misu- "


    But Jason had forgotten that his wand was still in his hand. The wizard seeing that Jason was raising his wand, immediately cut Jason off by calling a spell.


    "Stupefy"


    A red light shone on the wizard''s wand tip. And in just a second, a formless magic shot out, flying towards Jason.


    Jason could feel the magic power nearing him, he knew it was just a stun spell. But the wizard had cast it on reflex, so the power wasn''t toned down one bit, if he got hit, he would definitely fly back against the wall and maybe get a mild concussion, which he wasn''t up for.


    He didn''t know any spells though, so he could only gawk, with wand still up. But when Jason was just about to close his eyes, he felt a reaction from his wand. It had sent information towards him, not just any information though, a spell. All the images on how to cast it and pronounce it magically appeared in his mind, as if he had practiced it countless times.


    Jason immediately uttered it.


    "Samehh"


    A white light shone on Jason''s wand, and when the stupefy spell hit Jason, it immediately disappeared. As if it were a stone thrown into the ocean.


    This had all happened in a second...


    Jason was ecstatic, Hermione under him was in awe of Jason''s spell, even though she thought him evil, she wanted to know where he got his knowledge.


    The lanky wizard was amazed at this young man''s skill as well, he had never heard of the spell the boy called, but the effect was powerful. As could be seen, Jason didn''t even move a single bit when the spell hit him. But that just made him more dangerous in the eyes of the wizard, so he immediately tried to cast another spell.


    But Jason had watched the man''s movements closely, he had wanted to explain himself again. But seeing the wizard being unreasonable by not listening, he got angry.


    This is all on you


    Jason thought angrily.


    Along with the protection spell, the wand had taught him another, it had a rather simple description, but that made it easier for Jason to know what it was.


    All it said was: Attack!

 Chapter 8-Like butter

    "Ayav"


    Jason muttered, and got ready to swipe his wand vertically. Jason didn''t know what this spell did, as it only said attack, and taught him to swipe his wand anywhere over the enemy.


    But he still lowered his power output to a moderate level. He knew he had an abnormal amount of magic power. And he didn''t want to hurt the wizard, only teach him a lesson.


    But just when Jason was ready to wave his wand, two voices sounded out,


    "Jason Riley, stop what you''re doing this instant! "


    "Mr Riley quickly stop! "


    One, was his mother. Who had somehow gotten past the guards standing at the door. Seeing her son making trouble again, she wanted to quickly stop him.


    The other was Mr Ollivander, who thanks to Hermione(who had escaped in the chaos),  had regained consciousness already. Mr Ollivander saw Jason casting a spell, he didn''t know what it was, but as an experienced wizard, he knew it was dreadful, so he had to quickly stop Jason, lest he does something unfortunate.


    Jason, hearing these two voices, startled slightly. But his spell had already started, seeing the deep black light shining on the tip of his wand, and feeling the dreadfulness of the spell, Jason knew he done fucked up.


    He couldn''t pull it back now though, but he could still turn his wand somewhere else. So he quickly pointed next to the wizard and swiped his wand up, when the spell launched, a deep thin line immediately appeared in the wall. It was as if the wall was cut with a wire, a very strong and sharp wire.


    Jason blanched, this spell was terrible. If he hadn''t redirected it, the wizard would have been in two separate parts by now. And he would''ve been on a trip straight to Azkaban.


    And that wasn''t even the full power of the spell.


    The wizard was already trembling, now he was on his ass. When he saw that black light on Jason''s wand, all he felt was death, sneering at him.


    "I''m sorry, i didn''t mean that, I, I, didn''t know that was going to happen. " Jason apologized, something he hadn''t done a lot in this life. He was really scared, he''s reflecting now.This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it


    Next time, i really need to test these things first, but this damn wand is troublesome


    He stared at the wand in his hand, although he thought like that, he knew it was just trying to help him. He could feel it was different, ever since he turned 11, it had somehow become more... alive. He could feel what it was feeling, he hadn''t felt it before, cause he only held it for a moment then. But he could feel it''s remorse now, how it was sadly trembling in his hand. So he silently stroked it.


    "Thanks little guy " He whispered, "I know you were just trying to help me.


    The wand slowly calmed down.


    "Well Mr Riley, that was one magnificent spell. Though it was a bit dangerous mind you, but ... magnificent. "


    Jason just glared at the old coot.


    "Jason Riley! What have i told you about using your wand! You never listen, you could''ve killed the poor man! " Mrs Riley practically sobbed.


    Jason had really done it this time, if he had really killed someone, what would they have done. Their son would be taken away, and she would always blame herself for giving him that damn wand. Thankfully they reminded him in time.


    Mr Riley and Jason quickly consoled Mrs Riley.


    "Mum, I''m sorry okay. I promise I won''t use it so recklessly again. "


    "Give it here! " Mrs Riley demanded.


    "But mum-"


    "No buts mister, give it here, you''ve seen the wandmaker, and you still had the gall to attack him and this poor little girl, I''ll take it away. You''ll only get it once you get to Hogwarts, if you can still even go. " When she got there she sobbed again.


    Seeing his mother crying, and his father''s angry look, Jason glared at Mr Ollivander and Hermione, this had all started with them, these two jinxes.


    He was then begrudgingly gave his wand.


    Hermione hmphed cutely and glared back, seeing the villain getting his due, she was really ecstatic. But she still felt he hadn''t been punished enough, he had attacked two people, but no one had taken him away yet, she felt unconciled. Just when she wanted to remind the trembling guard, Mr Ollivander spoke.


    "Actually Mrs Riley, this was my fault."


    "Don''t cover for him, Mr? "


    "Ollivander, as it says on the door. And I''m not covering for him Mrs Riley, i had harmed myself, accidently of course. I''ll explain it to the both of you now, though uninvited guests should leave first. "


    "But-" (¡Á2) Both Hermione and the now recovered guard wanted to say something, but Mr Ollivander cut both of them off..


    "It was really an accident, and everything after that was done in extenuating circumstances,  you had attacked him first, and young Mr Riley only defended himself. " He said to the guard, who could only walk out dejectedly, dispersing the crowd outside.


    "As for you Missy, you can come back for your wand later today, I''m sure young Mr Riley over here will give you a satisfory explanation for his actions once you get to Hogwarts. Now run along now" He said looking at an angry Hermione.


    She could only helplessly nod though, she then politely greeted the Rileys and Mr Ollivander and left, glaring at Jason one last time before she got out the door.


    Now it was just The Rileys and Mr Ollivander left.


    After an awkward silence(Mr Ollivander seemed to be gathering his thoughts), he finally spoke.


    "Young Mr Riley, I''m sure you have a lot of questions. But let me ask you one first. Have you ever heard the name Yggdrasil? "

 Chapter 9-Seasons pass

    "Yeah ", Jason nodded, "The tree that connects the nine realms in Norse mythology. "


    Mr Ollivander nodded appreciatively


    "You''re well informed, yes indeed. And do you know the alternative name people call it. "


    Jason thought for a bit, while his parents looked on in confusion from the side. And then,  it suddenly hit him.


    "The tree of life! " he exclaimed suddenly, scaring his parents who were looking at him, and eliciting a smile from Mr Ollivander.


    He tried to connect the dots, his abnormal magic power, his weird abilities and how he always felt close to nature. And then he suddenly thought about the old tree from his previous life, the one he had fallen into.


    That ugly tree was the tree of life, you really can''t judge a book by it''s cover.


    And then looking at his wand again.


    So my wand, it should be a part of it right?, and those abnormal dreams I''ve been having, that must have been the tree in it''s heyday


    Thinking till here, Jason couldn''t help but feel pity now. Since the tree looked like that when he died, it must have also been dying.


    And my wand, and this new life, must have been a parting gift.


    He suddenly felt a sense of frustration. But then he quickly regained himself, and made a promise, deep inside of his heart.


    One day, when I''m powerful enough. I''ll make you thrive again, every branch will contain a new world, and every root, a different universe.


    And your canopy, will cast a shadow on the Heavens!


    Jason didn''t notice that when he made that declaration, the wand in his hand glowed softly, neither did his parents, or Mr Ollivander.


    ****


    Somewhere far far away, a different universe practically. Below a steep cliff, stood an old tree.


    It''s cracked roots broke through the ground, and it''s bark looked weathered and brittle.


    It had almost no leaves, and looked rather lonely. There was nothing else growing around it you see, not even a blade of grass, no insects or animals either.


    This was where the "almost" came in. On one of the branches of the tree, where it seemed like one of it was broken off. A lone leaf grew there, the only color in an otherwise colorless world. An oddity.The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.


    The leaf was gently trembling, which was weird, since there was no wind.


    You see, this tree stood in a small valley. Surrounded by mountains that gathered perfectly around it, like the mouth of a volcano.


    Like the mountains themselves were protecting it. Or hiding it.


    Now what wasn''t mentioned was, surrounding this valley, was a whole parade of animals. In the sky, on the land, and even in the rivers surrounding it. Every type of animal that you could think of. From eagles to swallows, lions to cats, even sharks.


    All of them were surrounding the valley, those that were the closest, were different though, they seemed, older, more powerful than the rest. Species that had never been seen before by humans. The progenitors.


    They were standing in a perfect circle on the edge of the mountaintops, quietly staring at the lone leaf, that was gently trembling.


    Then, suddenly in this quiet valley, where no sound had been heard in a long long time, there was a gentle snap. It was particurlarily loud in this quiet atmosphere.


    The animals at the forefront''s eyes suddenly locked onto something.


    It was particularly glaring in this dull environment.


    The leaf had fallen...


    It fell particularly slowly, like time and the laws of physics didn''t apply to it. To some it may feel like a lifetime, and to others, it may happen in a second.


    When it was finally close to the ground, just centimeters away. A gentle wind suddenly came into the valley, it revolved around the tree a few times, and then it softly picked up the leaf, like a mother would pick up it''s child.


    And then in the eyes of all the animals surrounding the valley, it took the leaf into the sky.


    The animals looked silently as the leaf was taken away. And then the ones at the forefront, the progenitors, suddenly howled, it was a long and grieving one. The other animals all just silently looked on. Even as the leaf disappeared from site, the progenitors still howled, as if they wouldn''t stop until a lifetime had passed.


    Gently and slowly the leaf fell, and gently and slowly it rose. Dissapearing into the sky, to a place far far away.


    And if you looked into the valley again, right in the middle, where a particularly odd tree stood. All you would find now would be empty land.


    ****


    When Jason seemed to be done reminiscing. Mr Ollivander proceeded to explain all he knew about The Tree of Life, and how he thought Jason''s wand was a part of it. Jason knew all this now though, but he still listened, as not to miss anything.


    Mr Ollivander explained a lot to the Rileys too, telling them how important Jason''s wand was and also explaining the unfortunate events that happened previously. When he was done, The Rileys were ready to leave...


    When Jason went out the door, he suddenly had the urge to hold his arm out.


    As he did, a leaf, as normal as any other, slowly fell into the palm of his hand.


    Jason didn''t know why, but he suddenly felt his heart aching. He could feel the same grief from his wand as well. His eyes got watery, and a tear slowly dropped down to the pavement.


    Looking at the leaf, Jason slowly closed his hand. When he opened it, the leaf was gone, as if it were never there in the first place.


    "What''s wrong honey? ", Mrs Riley asked anxiously, Jason had suddenly stopped, and it looked like he was crying. She knew he never cried, so she suddenly got anxious.


    "Nothing mum, I just suddenly felt down is all. "


    Saying that, he smiled with a trace of grief,  and walked on.

 Chapter 10-In the train

    On a certain train, in a certain compartment. If you were curious enough to peek inside, you would find a messy haired boy, lazing with his back against the window, with an assortment of sweets in front of him. On his nose you would find a clothes pin, which didn''t seem to bother the boy that much.


    This boy was obviously Jason. When he got to King''s cross, his parents were first nervous about the odd platform number. But he obviously knew where it was, well not precisely. It took a lot of hand-hitting-walls action. In the end he found it though, and saying goodbye to his parents, and with them repeatedly warning him not to cause too much trouble, he went straight in and occupied a whole compartment to himself.


    How did he do it you ask? Well he had cast a particular nasty spell, everytime someone opened the door, an unbearable stench would hit them, urging them to immediately move on to the next compartment. The spell was particularly easy to cast. All Jason had to do was say the magic words.


    "Dirty toilets


    And compost hell.


    Oh my god!


    What''s that smell! "


    An original of course. He found it particularly easy to make up spells, all he had to do was rhyme some, and voil¨¤!


    Only basic spells though, he had wanted to practice more, but he couldn''t cast spells at home, so he could only stuff his head full of theoretical knowledge. He had read all his magic books already, well all those that interested him at least. Hogwarts: a History was directly skipped.


    So here he was, with a clothes pin to block the smell. He had a bit of trouble though, every time he ate something, he couldn''t breathe through his mouth, so he had to take the pin off, but after the second time he got so disgusted that he refused to eat. So now he could only wait...


    And his wait was indeed worth it. Jason suddenly saw a person standing in front of his compartment. Black hair covering his forehead, with round rimmed glasses...


    It was Harry.


    And when Harry saw the lazy looking boy in the compartment, he got so excited that he threw the door open before Jason could warn him.


    "Jason! You''re he- What''s that smell !" Harry reeled backwards as fast as he could, with his hand covering his nose, and a disgusted look on his face.


    Jason wanted to laugh, but he didn''t want too much of the stuff going into his mouth, so he just smiled, and in front of Harry''s eyes he pulled out his wand and said.


    "Mayonnaise and mustard.


    Go away you bastard!"You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.


    A green gas, that only he could see immediately got sucked into his wand, taking the awful smell with it.


    Uncovering his nose, and noticing the smell was gone, Harry went into the compartment and exclaimed.


    "Jason, isn''t that the stick you always carry with you, was it a wand all this time? And what''s that spell you casted? And what was that godawful smell...."


    He shot off questions like a six shooter, overwhelming the now nose breathing Jason.


    "Wait, wait, wait. I''ll explain everything now just calm down."


    "Oh sorry, I just got excited there." Harry said embarrassedly.


    "It''s fine, well then, where to start. Ok got it, now you see..."


    Jason proceeded to explain everything that happened to him while Harry was gone, the speaking to animals, the scene at Ollivanders and even about the wand. Harry just listened, amazed at Jason''s adventures, and also a little regret, that he wasn''t there to experience it with him. When Jason got to where he made up his own spell, Harry excitedly asked Jason to teach him, which he gladly agreed to.


    When Jason was finished, he asked Harry about what happened to him while he was gone. Harry gladly started explaining. Though in the middle of their talk they got interrupted.


    "Excuse me, all the other''s are full, can i sit here?"


    A red haired boy was standing at their compartment door, looking at them pitifully , but with a bit of hope in his eyes. Jason looked at the boy and immediately knew who it was, Ron Weasley.


    Harry also looked at the boy, and when he recognized him, he cheerfully agreed. Jason didn''t have a problem either, he knew Ron was Harry''s best friend in the movies, so he didn''t mind. Jason was a curious person, he liked to wander and explore, so someone who could keep Harry busy while he was gone, or busy was welcome. He didn''t want Harry to be lonely after all.


    "Sure, there''s enough space."


    Jason''s feet were still up on his side, but Harry sat upright, so there was obviously room for Ron. Seeing they agreed, Ron smiled cheerfully and went and sat next to Harry.


    "I''m Ron by the way, Ron Weasley."


    "Jason Riley, at your service." Jason replied in mock chivalry, which looked funny with a piece of chocolate stuffed in his mouth.


    "I''m Harry, Harry Potter." Harry said.


    When Harry said his name, Ron gawked, then wanted to ask something, but Jason quickly interrupted him.


    "Yes, Yes, the scars'' real. And no he''s not taking autographs. " He said lazily


    Harry just smiled, and Ron looked at Jason awkwardly. Jason''s eyes were on Ron''s pocket though, where a rat had stuck it''s head out.


    "Well Ronny, that''s a nice rat you''ve got there." Jason said intriguingly.


    Ron immediately perked up, and said to Jason and Harry.


    "This here is scabbers, been in the family for a long time now.... " he was obviously excited about a topic to talk about, and with that start, he also found other topics.


    Jason just glanced at Scabbers for a second, then ignored him. He obviously knew who the rat was. But he couldn''t do anything now. He hadn''t learned enough spells yet, and he didn''t want to put Harry and Ron in unnecessary danger.


    Though, when I''m strong enough, I''m making ratatouille. He thought maliciously.(There''s not even rat in there - AN)


    When the three were talking, and the situation was fairly harmonious, what with Jason sharing his snacks, and teaching them a few of his spells, a voice interrupted them once again.


    "Has anyone seen a toad, a boy named Nev-"


    But when the person speaking saw Jason, she immediately stopped her previous sentence and screamed while pointing a finger at him.


    "It''s you!"


    Dammit, i forgot about this witch, Jason thought bitterly.


    It was obviously Hermione.


    Here to bust my balls again

 Chapter 11-Hogwarts

    Jason looked at Hermione with a frown on his face and teasingly answered.


    "What, you don''t even know the name of the boy you gave your first kiss to? How casual."


    Ron had a suprised look on his face, he looked at Hermione, and thought that she wasn''t that pretty, why would Jason kiss her?


    Harry had already heard about this from Jason, he knew it was an accident, but he also found Hermione''s reaction funny


    Hermione blushed when she heard what Jason said. Why did he have to say something like that aloud, it was obviously an accident she thought. She looked at Harry and Ron''s faces, and seeing their reactions, she knew she had to clear up this misunderstanding.


    "That wasn''t deliberate and you know that! I, I had no control over my body." she said, stumbling over a good excuse.


    Jason continued smiling at her, and just when he wanted to speak, Ron''s voice interrupted him.


    "I''m sorry who are you?"


    Hermione, thankful for a change of topic raised her head and said,


    "Hermione Granger...your names?"


    Ron with a piece of candy still in his mouth answered


    "Ron Weasley"


    "Pleasure" Hermione said, with her nose wrinkled up.


    "Harry Potter"


    "Crickets, Harry Potter" Hermione said amazed,


    You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story."Pleasure to meet you" she then looked at Jason with inquiry, although she had a bad impression of him, she was still fascinated by the spells he used the other day. She had looked in all the books she could find at the moment, but could never find one mention of it, or anything that sounded familiar. She wanted to know where he had learned them, and she was also curious why he was so powerful.


    "Jason Riley, I would say it''s a pleasure. But i would be lying then would I?" Jason said, still with a smile on his face.


    Hermione froze, then angrily flared her nose.


    What an obnoxious person, she thought.


    "Well you''re not the only one who finds the other unpleasant. Anyway you should wear your robes, we''ll be there soon."


    And with that, she stomped off, obviously mad at what Jason had said.


    She was kind enough to still remind us though


    When they got off at Hogsmeade Station, everyone had already worn their robes. Jason felt pretty dashing in it. When he first put it on he had swished his sleeves and said:


    "Woe to all my rivals in love, for the war had already ended when i arrived."


    He looked like a total tool.


    Ron just looked at him strangely and asked Harry,


    "Is he always like this?"


    Harry nodded helplessly, even though he knew Jason''s quirks, he still couldn''t get used to his random narcissistic moments. Though he did think he looked dashing, no homo though.


    "Hi there Harry." a rough voice was heard by the three, they looked in that direction and when Harry saw Hagrid he cheerfully greeted him.


    When Jason and Ron saw Hagrid, they both exclaimed, he was huge! Although Jason had seen him on tv, seeing something there, and in real life was totally different. Though he wasn''t surprised that much, Hagrid was half giant after all.


    But if he''s already this big, i wonder what purebloods look like


    Jason shivered at the thought of a giant, seemingly taking a piss, and accidentally drowning him.


    Shaking his head, he quickly followed after Harry and Ron.


    When they got to the lake, Jason had wanted to rig one of the boats. But Harry talked him out of it, as it wouldn''t be a good idea to get in trouble on the first day. So Jason could only begrudgingly agree.


    So they set off...


    The lake was calm, but Jason''s heart wasn''t. In front of him stood a beautiful castle on a rocky mangled cliff, bathed in moonlight it looked breathtaking.


    "Hogwarts " Jason said, all his excitement seeping out of his voice.


    Then he smirked.


    The fun begins now

 Chapter 12-Sorting

    Jason found the steps up particularly tiring, he wasn''t unfit, no. In fact he was as fit as an 11 year old could be, running from trouble had brought him a certain amount of stamina.


    He was just lazy...


    "Uuh, i have to climb up these for 7 years, damnit they should just get elevators, what do wizards need stamina for." Jason complained.


    "Stop complaining, and move faster, you''re blocking the way." Hermione shot back.


    "Hermind your own business"


    Hermione had the urge to push Jason off the stairs.


    When they reached the top, McGonagall was there waiting for them. As prim as always.


    "Welcome to Hogwarts.." She started then proceeded to explain about the different houses and their rules. Jason just tuned her out, he was focused on the ugly toad underneath her.


    "Escape, escape escape, where''s the exit." Jason heard it mumbling to itself.


    He wanted to help the poor guy, Neville wasn''t a bad person, he was just a tinge forgetful. Jason could be sure that the toad had probably starved a few times already.


    Feeling sorry for the thing, Jason pointed his finger at it, and with a little bit of magic, launched it into the air. Jason had made a mistake though, he hadn''t aimed. So now, there was a flying frog, right over the heads of a few 11 year old girls.


    Not long after, screams resounded between them, even some of the boys cried out.


    Professor McGonagall quickly tried to get order back.


    "Stop all of you, don''t panic!"


    But no one could hear her over the screams and shouts.


    The toad went straight in between them, and landed right on Draco''s head.


    "Get this disgusting thing off me right now!" He screamed shrilly.


    Crabbe and Goyle, seeing their master''s predicament hastily pulled out their wands and pointed it at Malfoy, but seeing that, Malfoy got even more anxious. So did Neville.


    "Stop you two buffoons! You''ll hit me!"


    "Trevor!" Neville shouted, and ran towards Malfoy, trying to get Trevor off.


    Neville though, being the klutz he was, tripped and fell hitting Malfoy''s stomach with a headbutt, sending him reeling down the steps. Where the toad, seeing his chance, hastily escaped.If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.


    "Trevor!" Neville shouted sadly.


    Professor McGonagall had been trying to calm things down for a while now. But seeing no one listening to her she pulled out her wand, just then she saw Malfoy rolling down the steps. So she quickly cast a spell to stop it. Though she had acted a little too late, Malfoy had already rolled down a few times...


    And so, Malfoy was injured on his first day at school.


    Jason and the gang were dumbfounded, especially Jason. He had just wanted to help out. What he got in return was madness.


    At least this time misfortune favored someone else


    He thought relievedly, and smiled at Malfoy''s shitty luck.


    That is until he felt two glares, pricking him like needles.


    One was Hermione, who had just been stunned by the happenings in front of her. When she saw Jason smiling, she somehow knew that he had been involved in it. So she glared at him.


    Breaking the rules and causing chaos on his first day, he''s indeed a thug


    The other was the professor. Who had calmed everything down now, and sent Malfoy to the infirmary.


    As a top class wizard, she was very sensitive to magic, not as good as Dumbledore of course, but still excellent. So when Jason launched the toad in the air, she had knew it was him. But she couldn''t think that just that small action, would cause such an unfortunate outcome. She couldn''t punish him now though, as he didn''t have a house yet.


    "You, after you''re sorted, report to whoever''s your house leader!" she ordered him.


    Jason shrank his neck at her glare, and hearing her demand, he nodded pitifully. Hermione seeing Jason look so pitiful, nodded satisfiedly. Harry and Ron also looked at him with pity in their eyes.


    What bullshit luck


    And so, the crowd followed Professor McGonagall into the grand hall, where the other students and professors had been waiting for a while now. Seeing the sullen looking 1st years coming in, they all looked confused. Shouldn''t they be excited, or nervous? Why do they all look like they had just been fucked without consent?


    They could only push their questions down though, as McGonagall had reached the front already.


    "Now before we begin, Professor Dumbledore would like to say a few things"


    Dumbledore slowly stood up...


    "I have a few notices i wish to announce..."


    Jason intently looked at the strongest white wizard. He was an old wizened man, with his hair and beard as white as snow. His eyes were unusually bright though.


    Jason couldn''t find anything different about him, he blamed it on his magic being too weak though. He wasn''t hasty though, Jason had found out that ever since that he caught that leaf, his magic power had been constantly rising. So he knew that even if he wasn''t strong enough now, he would be in the future.


    With Jason dozing off, it had already gone to Harry''s turn, the sorting hat took a little longer with him, though in the end with Harry vehemently denying Slytherin, he ended up in Gryffindor.


    Jason had to wait a whole while, and finally, right after everyone else,


    "Jason Riley"


    It was his turn...


    Jason walked up to the stool and sat down, the sorting hat immediately started speaking.


    "Hmmm, ha~~ard one....Scheming, but smart too. Ravenclaw would suit you wouldn''t it, but so would Slytherin. Your bravery isn''t that bad either."


    Jason silently listened to the hat, to him it didn''t really matter where he went. Ravenclaw would be good, since their library was better, and Slytherin would also probably be a nice fit, Snape was an excellent dark arts professor.


    But looking down, and seeing Harry''s eyes filled with hope...


    Well, Gryffindor wouldn''t be so bad either.


    "Ha, guess then there''s only one place for you..."


    Harry clenched his fists, and Ron looked on eagerly. Hermione looked on curiously as well.


    Then, finally under the bating breaths of the audience...


    "Gryffindor!"


    The hat spoke...


    And Jason smiled.

 Chapter 13- Triple threat

    When the sorting was done, everyone sat down at their house tables and got ready to eat.


    "Percy who''s that?" Harry asked Percy Weasley, while pointing at the teacher''s podium.


    Jason looked up to where Harry was pointing to, it was Snape. Jason thought he looked pretty handsome, though a tad feminine(no homo). Jason switched his attention to the person Snape was speaking to though, Professor Quirrell. He had an odd turbin wrapped around his head, with a constant nervous tick plaguing him.


    What a weird guy, i see why Harry and the others never suspected him.


    Seemingly feeling Jason''s gaze, Quirrel looked towards him. He then gave a friendly smile which Jason returned, and continued his conversation.


    "Have you met the professor before?" Hermione asked. Ron also looked at Jason curiously.


    "No, but Harry had. Though he looks like an odd fellow."


    Hermione looked at Quirrel and couldn''t help but agree inside her head.


    When the meal was over, Jason and the other first years followed Percy to Gryffindor''s common room. Inside, Jason found it especially cozy, like how a home would be.


    That night, Jason sat with Harry looking over Hogwarts'' grounds. They talked about a lot of things, Jason could see that Harry truly liked this place. Jason shared his sentiment. They eventually went back to bed, with the moonlight gently streaming over their faces.


    ****


    Classes were fairly easy to Jason.


    Transfiguration...


    "I want you to turn this match into a needle" Professor McGonagall told her class. Everyone started, and after a few tries they stared at their matches cluelessly. There was no change in either one of their matches, well except Hermione''s.


    "Wonderful Miss Granger!" McGonagall praised her as she walked through the ranks, causing Hermione to lift her head proudly and turn it to Jason. But when she looked over, she realized that there was nothing on his table.


    "Where''s your match?" She asked perplexed, he couldn''t have made it invisible right? McGonagall also noticed that Jason''s match was gone.


    "Mr Riley don''t fret over not getting it rig--"


    A miserable scream cut her off, and pulled everyone''s attention towards the culprit. It was Goyle, who was standing at the moment, trying to get a thin silver needle out of his arse. Everyone turned their attention towards Jason, who had an innocent look on his face.


    "Well Professor, as you can see I''ve finished my assignment. I don''t know why my needle is there. Though i suspect that Goyle''s proclivities has something to do with it."


    Some boys in class started laughing, and the girls just blushed. Hermione and McGonagall glared at Jason.


    "Despicable" Hermione whispered.


    ****


    Potions was especially easy, with Jason''s memory, he almost never threw in the wrong ingredients. And the rest was smooth sailing.


    Herbology was a bit of a drag, the plants always seemed to grow towards Jason. And those that could run, would try their hardest to get to him, which caused the students to lose theirs.


    ****


    At night, Jason would sneak out of the castle towards the edge of the forbidden forest where he would practice magic. He could cast most spells wandlessly and non-verbally now, he found that he only had to picture it in his mind, and will it through his fingers, sometimes his palm depending on the spell, though his spells were still much stronger if he used his wand.This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.


    Jason thought that magic was a lot like a wild beast, you could either tame it, or let it eat you. You could run away too, but he thought that was too much effort.


    The wand had never given Jason any new spells yet, though looking at the tree cut in half in front of him, Jason felt that what he had now was enough.


    He would visit Hagrid a lot too, Fang had found him on one of his trips, Jason had hit it off with him immediately. Fang would take him to Hagrid where they would drink tea, though Jason brought his own pastries after the first night.


    ****


    "Jason where do you go at night?" Harry asked Jason in the great hall


    "To practice magic, and i also go to Hagrid''s sometimes."


    "Really, why didn''t you take me with?" Harry said.


    "I''ll take you with me next time, you too Ron. Both of your magic is shitty."


    Harry and Ron both looked down sadly, they couldn''t retort because compared to Jason, their magic was truly shitty.


    Seeing them downtrodden like that Jason couldn''t help but console them.


    "Well don''t worry, a little bit of practice and you''ll be good in no time. Though don''t let Hermione find out."


    They both nodded spiritidly.


    And so Harry and Ron Joined Jason''s nightly adventures. It was slightly hard with three people sneaking out at the same time, but thanks to Jason''s excellent perception, they somehow made it.


    ****


    Harry had just been recruited into the quidditch team, Him, Ron and Jason were walking to class.


    "But what if I fail?" Harry asked nervously.


    "You won''t Harry." a Voice interrupted them from the back, when they looked behind, they saw that it was Hermione.


    "It''s in your blood!" she said to him confidently. Then she proceeded to walk away and motioned towards them to follow.


    ****


    "I swear she knows more about you then you do."


    "Doesn''t everyone." Harry said flatly.


    "Hey guys, you know we''re going the wrong way right?" Jason suddenly said.


    "Don''t be ridiculous, this is the same pat-" Hermione got cut off by a jerk, then she was moving horizontally.


    "The stairs are moving!" Harry exclaimed.


    Hermione swiveled towards Jason and grabbed his collar.


    "Why didn''t you tell us earlier!" She demanded.


    "Hey hey, personal space. We don''t want another accident do we?" he said with a smirk.


    Seeing how close she was and hearing what Jason said, Hermione quickly backed offed with a blush on her face.


    "Well don''t be so bashful okay, i forgot." Jason said matter of factly.


    "Ughh" Hermione groaned at his laid back response.


    Just then the staircase suddenly stopped moving. There was a wooden door in front of them, not much different than the normal door they usually see.


    "Let''s go this way." Harry said.


    When they pushed open the door, they were in a dirty dark hall, filled with dust and cobwebs.


    "Are we supposed to be here? " Ron asked nervously.


    "No, this is the third floor." Hermione answered. She wasn''t sure why they weren''t supposed to be here, but she did feel the place had an ominous feel to it.


    "Let''s go." Jason said, then walked off.


    "Yeah lets-Wha! Jason you''re going the wrong way." Harry had just wanted to turn around and go back when he heard Jason, but then he saw Jason going straight to the front.


    *Meow*


    A cat''s call startled them suddenly, when they looked behind them, they saw an ugly cat staring at them with it''s blood red eyes.


    "It''s Filch''s cat!"


    "Run!"


    "Jason, wait for us!"


    They swiftly turned around and followed Jason, who had arrived at the door already. They saw him point his finger at the door, and with a click it opened.


    "What! How did you do that?"


    Hermione asked astonished. Harry and Ron had already seen Jason''s spellcasting so they weren''t that surprised. But Hermione hadn''t, and she was horrified. What Jason did, even if he only cast a basic spell, was something that only an adult wizard was supposed to do. How did he do it then?


    "Don''t worry about that now, get in!" Ron said impatiently.


    ****


    Jason liked attention, but he didn''t like unnecessary attention. So he hadn''t shown off his wandless or non-verbal casting in class before, he usually called out his spell softly, so the people next to him could always hear him say something. Though he did find it a hassle, he didn''t want his abilities to be known to his enemies so soon, including Dumbledore.


    He knew Dumbledore wasn''t an enemy, but he didn''t want to be used by the old guy either. So as soon as he could, Jason did research on how to block prying eyes. So now, wherever Jason went, Dumbledore couldn''t peek. It was a simple trick, all he had to do was seep a certain amount of magic in the air, in a certain way.


    Jason didn''t know how hard it was to control magic so precisely though, probably only Tom Riddle from that age could barely match him.


    ****


    When they were all inside they quickly closed the door.


    "You have to tell me where..."


    Hermione had just wanted to harp Jason again, but what she saw in front of her, made her throat clog up.


    Everyone stood next to her, and stared dully at what they were seeing.


    It was a dog, a huge one. It''s paw could fit Hermione into it snugly. But that wasn''t so astonishing, no what shocked them, scared them, was the fact that it had three heads.


    Three heads which at the moment, was gazing at them icily, each with a bit of drool leaking out of it''s mouth.


    *Grrrrr*


    It growled menacingly. That''s what Harry, Ron and Hermione heard.


    Jason heard something different.


    "Fear puny humans, for I am Fluffy, guardian of doors." ¡Á3

 Chapter 14-Bold move?

    Jason''s face scrunched up immediately, and then...


    He broke out into a fit of giggles.


    "Bwahahahahah, you''re a chuni, hahaha. What a joke! Doors, what doors? Hahaha."


    "Human, you dare laugh at the mighty... Uh. Keeper of door!" This was the left head.


    "Are you an idiot, that doesn''t even make any sense. And it''s not even a door, it''s a hole in the ground with a piece of wood to cover it."


    "It''s a door!" ¡Á3


    "Hole!"


    "Door!" ¡Á3


    Harry, Ron and Hermione watched dumbfoundedly as Jason spoke to, a sometimes growling, sometimes barking dog.


    Jason had told Harry about his ability, but hearing about it and seeing it in person were two totally different things. Any bystander would surely think that Jason had gone crazy... any bystander like Ron and Hermione.


    "He''s gone mad!" sounded a terrified Ron.


    "It seems so yes." an utterly confused Hermione.


    Hearing the bystanders, Harry had no choice but to defend his friend. He also couldn''t help but think of what he sounded like when he spoke to snakes.


    "Jason told me he can speak to animals."


    "That is... weird." Ron said at a loss for words.


    "Yes, it is pretty weird." Though she said that, Hermione got even more curious about Jason.


    "What''s so weird about it, I can understand them too, well only snakes."


    But when Harry said that, both Ron and Hermione got a big fright.


    "Harry you''re a parselmouth!" Ron hissed


    "What''s with your exaggerated reaction, isn''t it the same as Jason."


    "It''s not the same" Hermione tried to persuade Harry. "Jason can probably speak to all animals right? That''s never been heard of but it''s still safe, probably."You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.


    She took a breather, then looked at Harry seriously.


    "But Harry you speak parseltongue, which has been heard of. And only.."


    "Only what?" Harry urged her on, with a nervous treble in his voice. You couldn''t blame him though, Hermione made it as if he had a rare disease.


    "Only the most evil wizards in history could speak parseltongue."


    This was Jason, who seemed to be done arguing with fluffy. He walked over to Harry and pat him on the shoulders.


    "But don''t worry about it Harry, you killed the most evil wizard in history, how could you not be good. Aaand even if you were evil..."


    Here Jason''s mouth turned up into an evil smirk.


    "I''ll burn the world down with you, and we''ll blow the ashes to the moon."


    Ron and Hermione shivered at that declaration, and Harry had tears in his eyes as he looked at Jason.


    "Jason! "


    "Harry! "


    "Jason! "


    "Ha--hooold the fuck up! What sort of development is this."


    Jason immediately backtracked. When he looked around him and saw the weird stares of Hermione and Ron, he felt like crying. Even Fluffy looked at him weirdly.


    Misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding!


    Though saying that out loud would only worsen things.


    "Humans! You dare ignore this great doorkeeper before you. You even have the gall to profess your lov-"


    "Shut up triathlon head, or you''ll only see through  two eyes from now on!"


    Jason threatened Fluffy, pointing his wand at the middle head menacingly.


    "Hahaha little human, do you really think your ma-"


    Again his sentence got cut off, but this time he stopped voluntarily. Because looking behind, Fluffy saw a deep gash on the wall, which was ridiculous because the walls were supposed to be magically protected. He was sure that if whatever Jason had cast was directed at his heads, one of them would be permanently asleep right now.


    Fluffy immediately sat on his hind like a good dog, and all three heads looked at Jason pitifully. Jason felt kinda bad for scaring Fluffy, after all, he was just doing his job.


    "Well don''t worry I won''t hurt you okay, just guard whatever it is you''re guarding, and we''ll get out of here."


    "Thank you tiny human, this uhm, keeper of holes is in your debt."


    "Sure sure. Let''s go guys."


    Harry, Ron and Hermione after one last glance at Fluffy, hastily ran after Jason.


    When they got out of the door Hermione immediately started questioning Jason.


    "How can you cast non-verbal spells? Why can you understand animals? And what was that last spell you used?"


    "Who knows" Jason answered dismissively.


    "You!"


    "Me what? Look i don''t have to answer any of your questions okay, you''re not my friend, neither are you my girlfriend. You''re at most an acquaintance."


    "But, but.." Hermione softly bit her lip, she knew that her questions were inappropriate, but she was just a little excited so she blurted them out. She had hoped though that he could answer her, especially about the spells. But her hopes were ruthlessly crushed by Jason''s dismissive attitude, so she could only lower her head downtrodden.


    Looking at Hermione sadly lowering her head like a kitten that got scolded, Jason felt a little bad for her.


    "Listen okay, there''s an easy way to find out everything..." he told her, which made her raise her head hopefully. She looked at Jason with her big brown eyes.


    "Do you want to know how?"


    (Do you know da way? )


    She nodded. And looked on as what she could only describe as an evil smile appeared across Jason''s face. He then lowered his head and softly whispered into her ear.


    "Kiss me"


    "..."

 Chapter 15-Potty break

    "Aaaaaaahhh, SON OF FFFFFFFUU-"


    A miserable scream echoed out in a dark hall, though the hall regained it''s quiet pretty soon.


    Jason wanted to swear till it rained cats, but he wasn''t at home now, much less the Gryffindor common room. Filch would surely jump at the chance to punish a student that''s out after hours.


    But looking at the bushy haired figure running ahead, and feeling the pain coming from his big toe, Jason had the urge to cry. Well it was his fault for antagonizing her, who knew she would suddenly step on his toe though. He was just teasing, it''s not like he really wanted a kiss, not now at least.


    What a violent lass


    "Jason what happened?" Harry asked, surprised at Jason''s sudden outbreak.


    "Didn''t you see Harry, that barbarian stepped on his foot, she''s no good i tell you." Ron chimed in.


    "Let''s not dwell on the little things" Jason answered, with a little spring in his step, "We should go, Filch might come back."


    "Yeah"


    ****


    "Wingardium Leviosa"


    And with that, Hermione''s feather floated gently into the air, eliciting silence from the whole class, well almost the whole class...


    "Well done Miss Granger, yes yes. You too Mr Riley, but if you could please stop tickling Mr Longbottom, yes thank you. Poor fellow''s out of breath already."


    Yes, while Hermione had been charming her feather, Jason had had his up a long time ago, of course no one heard him say his spell, so they didn''t pay attention to him. Though Neville had been feeling the thing under his armpit for a while now.


    " Haha stop stop, Jason stop hahaha" Neville pleaded through the few breaths he could take.


    "Tell me something Neville Longbottom"


    "Hahaha, I''ll tell I''ll tell, what do you want to know, haha"


    "Do you think Hermione''s bushy hair is artificial, or was she raised by lions and groomed to be the first female king of animals? "If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it.


    "..."


    "Aaah, wait Hermione I was just kidding, wait what are you doing with that quill, no that doesn''t belong there aaaaaahh"


    Soon miserable screams could be heard coming from the Charms class, and if you were bold enough to peek inside, you would find a messy haired boy running around class with a quill stuck in his left buttcheek.


    ****


    "It''s Levi~osa not Leviosa~, she''s a nightmare, honestly. No wonder she doesn''t have any friends"


    Ron felt a person bump into him, looking to the front, him Jason and Harry saw Hermione walking off with a sob in her step. Jason stared at her back thoughtfully.


    "Ron, it seems that your training has been a little too easy huh" Jason said, with a smile on his face.


    Ron shuddered when he looked at Jason''s smile, it was going to be a long night for him.


    ****


    Halloween was a marvelous affair at Hogwarts,  with flying pumpkins and good food the students enjoyed themselves to the fullest.


    "Where''s Hermione?" Harry asked, noticing the open seat next to him.


    "Patti Patil said she saw her in the girl''s bathroom, crying." Neville, hearing Harry''s question, answered.


    The harmonious scene was soon disturbed, by the great hall doors being flung open, and a banged up professor Quirrell running in anxiously.


    "Trooolll, troll in the dungeon!" he shouted, and after a pause. "Thought you''d ought to know." he fainted, eliciting chaos from the students.


    Dumbledore, swiftly calmed the students down. And gave proper instructions to the prefects.


    Harry had just wanted to move with, when he noticed.


    "Where''s Jason?"


    ****


    "Ooh Hermi~one, come out. Or I''ll blow your stall down"


    "Go away Jason, this is the girl''s bathroom!" Hermione shouted exasperatedly.


    She wasn''t even sad anymore, just fed up. Jason had been here for a while now, he had come straight into the bathroom and to the stall where Hermione was crying in. She had jumped when she first heard his voice, and of course she tried to chase him away, even resorting to pleading, but Jason just ignored her.


    He had told her weird stories about an orange haired boy who grew up bullied and became the Hokage, and a rubber man who wanted to be the pirate king, she was utterly confused by them though. And what made her truly mad was, everytime someone came into the bathroom, he would chase them away by telling them.


    "My girlfriend''s got the leeks, nasty business. It''ll be better if you find another bathroom, maybe in some other castle, her poops magical."


    It had been hours already, now he was resorting to singing songs from the 80''s.


    "Wherever you go~


    whatever you do~


    I will be right here waiting for you~"


    She couldn''t resist anymore.


    "Pffft, stop stop you''re so annoying"


    Though she said that, when she came out, she had a smile on her face, which Jason got lost in for a moment.


    "Uuuh Jason"


    Hermione said suddenly , snapping him out of his trance. He focused and saw that her swollen eyes had now gone wide, he could also make out some fear in them.


    "Let me guess, big fat and ugly right"


    She just nodded stupidly.


    Jason turned around, and was greeted by the ugliest humanoid creature he had ever seen. It had a big fat belly, and ears that Jason thought could be used to pick up tv channels from China, the only thing Jason found imposing, was the huge club in his hand.


    "Sooo, what riddle have you got for me?"


    Jason asked with a grin.


    "Rooooaaaar"


    "Ok ok, you''re not into riddles, I''ll stop trolling now"

 No new chapters here

    I''ll be taking a bit of a break guys, not stopping, just a break. Just to think about things a bit ya know, to where i want my story to lead, what i want Jason to become, all those things. I want this to be better, entertaining, and fun, mostly fun. And it''s not fun if it''s not done properly. Sooo hopefully I''ll be back next week???? Cheers, and thanks for all the support so far ??The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

    Now?


    How about now?


    Not yet?


    FUC-

 Chapter 16-Clumsy Creatures

    Jason stared at the hulking mass of flesh before him vigilantly. Even if he was usually very lazy, and never seemed to take things seriously, he knew when to set his priorities straight. He couldn¡¯t afford to make a mistake now, it wasn¡¯t just him alone after all. Jason could feel two dainty hands gripping his left arm, he shot a glance behind him and met a pair of big brown eyes.


    Staring into Hermione¡¯s usually lively eyes ¨C now filled with only fear ¨C Jason suddenly had a shot of confidence. He had just wanted to say something reassuring to her, when suddenly he saw her eyes widen even further. Jason¡¯s neck hairs suddenly stood on end, and without even turning his head back he immediately ducked, pulling Hermione with him. He could feel a sudden breeze blow over his head, which made his messy hair even messier, the troll ¨C while he wasn¡¯t paying attention ¨C had suddenly swung his club, knocking over a few cubicles and missing their heads by only a few inches.


    Seeing the damage done by one swing, Jason had cold sweat running down his back.


    ¡°Shit, could you at least grunt before you swing next time!¡± Jason shouted, all he got in return was a loud and awful roar, blasting him and Hermione with the putrid smell of troll breath.


    ¡°No English then.¡±


    ¡°Jason stop playing around!¡± Hermione said anxiously, ¡°We need to get out of here!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry OK,¡± He said, swiftly looking around, ¡°I have a plan.¡±


    ¡°You do?¡± She looked at him hopefully. He didn¡¯t answer her though, as his gaze had suddenly locked onto the sink taps. He pointed his wand at it and with a bang, the tap furthest from them got knocked off, shooting water into the air behind the troll.


    Jason pointed his wand again, though this time at the troll.


    "I hope this works." He muttered, under his breath, then he shouted, "Confingo."


    With a fiery blast, the troll was sent straight into the wall behind it, it wobbled on its feet ¨C evidently the blast had packed quite a punch, though not enough to knock it out ¨C stepping unsteadily into the water lying on the ground.


    Jason, making sure the water hadn¡¯t gotten to him or Hermione yet, smiled and muttered, ¡°Game over.¡±


    And pointing his wand at the wet floor underneath the troll, he cast another spell.


    ¡°Baubilluos¡± a bright, yellow-white bolt of lightning shot out of his wand, hitting the water accurately.


    The troll still groggy, immediately felt the effects of a few thousand volts of electricity coursing through its body. It shook and shivered madly, lightning snaking chaotically over its now partly burnt skin. Jason cut off the spell, the troll stood still for a few seconds ¨C which felt like minutes to Jason and Hermione ¨C and then, with a large thud that shook the whole bathroom, it fell, its head inches away from Jason¡¯s nose.


    Jason breathed a large sigh of relief, he wasn¡¯t sure if his Confringo curse would work, after all, it was a pretty advanced spell ¨C he had seen it in one of Percy¡¯s handbooks and memorized it. And he was sure that even if it did work, it wouldn¡¯t quite pack the punch it should, so the lightning was a backup. If those two didn¡¯t work, he¡¯d have to use his severing spell, no matter how gory it was, though only as a last resort ¨C And dropping its club on its head? Jason had forgotten all that in the heat of the moment, even if he did remember, he would think it too inelegant.


    He turned his head and gave Hermione who was lying next to him a big toothy grin.


    ¡°See, a plan.¡±


    He was expecting a smile in return, and if he got lucky, maybe a hug. But all he got was a scowl. Hermione stood up suddenly and gave Jason a hard knock on his head.


    ¡°Ow, are you mad! What was that for?¡± Jason looked up at her, cross and confused at her unexpected reaction.


    ¡°Are you an idiot!¡± She bellowed, ¡°Shooting lightning when the floors wet! And casting such a dangerous spell, you could¡¯ve killed us!¡±


    ¡°Better than death by troll,¡± he muttered, standing up and patting the dust from his robes, ¡°Besides, it worked didn¡¯t it?¡±Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation.


    She just stared at him, and after a few seconds, suddenly burst into tears. Jason was flabbergasted, had he said something wrong? He started panicking, previously she was crying behind a stall, so he hadn¡¯t felt as much pressure as he did now, but now seeing her shoulders shaking, and her hands in front of her eyes, he didn¡¯t know what to do.


    ¡°Hey, hey don¡¯t cry,¡± he said, nervously walking towards her, ¡°I won¡¯t put you in danger like that again, promise.¡±


    Her shoulders shook even more after hearing that, which made Jason even more anxious. Just when he wanted to break into song again, he heard her say something, he had to strain his ears to make out what she said.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, it¡¯s my fault, I - I put you in danger.¡± She said between hics and sobs.


    Jason suddenly felt relieved when he heard that, she was crying for him and not because of him, which made a world of difference.


    ¡°It¡¯s not your fault OK, who could have predicted a troll suddenly appearing in the castle,¡± he softly consoled her, ¡°Besides, all turned out swell didn¡¯t it, look, not even a scratch.¡± He pointed towards his dusty robes, and seeing her looking, gave another toothy grin.


    ¡°But¡­ you could¡¯ve gotten killed.¡± She said softly, looking up to his eyes now, which shone a splendid brown under the light, just like hers.


    ¡°Better me than you.¡± Jason said, grin still on his face. Hermione suddenly dashed forward though, catching Jason off guard. She threw her arms around his waist and put her head right into his shoulder, sobbing again. His hands were stupidly up in the air, but after a while he slowly lowered them, and gingerly stroked her back.


    ¡°Don¡¯t cry, the big ugly troll can¡¯t hurt you anymore ¨C wow your hair smells really nice.¡± He said, faintly sniffing her hair, which made her pinch his waist out of embarrassment.


    Just then, Harry and Ron came storming into the bathroom.


    ¡°Hermione, we¡¯ve got to go, there¡¯s a troll in th ¨C whoa!¡± Harry exclaimed.


    They both had come in too fast, Harry had just narrowly missed the troll, but Ron wasn¡¯t so lucky. He tripped over it and fell face first into the wet ground, almost breaking his nose.


    ¡°Blimey, who leaves a troll just lying there?¡° He cursed, rubbing his sore nose, and then looking up at Jason and Hermione still embracing, ¡°Are we interrupting something?¡±


    Hermione, who had lifted her head to see where the noise was coming from, immediately jumped away from Jason, as if he were a hot plate on a stove.


    ¡°Yes, you ar ¨C ow!¡± Jason, who had wanted to answer Ron, got a heavy stomp on his foot. He looked up and saw Hermione ¨C who was wiping her eyes ¨C smiling slyly.


    Urgent footsteps could be heard from the door, a few seconds later, Professor McGonagall came bursting in, followed closely by Snape and Professor Quirrell ¨C who was bending over and clutching his heart as soon as he set eyes on the troll, Jason marveled at his good acting skills ¨C Snape was bent over the troll, examining it.


    ¡°What on earth has gone on here?¡± Professor McGonagall hissed, with unmasked fury in her voice. She looked at the four at them, the fire in her eyes not affected at all by the water still shooting from the broken tap ¨C which Snape, now done examining the troll, swiftly stopped with a wave of his wand.


    ¡°You could¡¯ve gotten yourselves killed! Why aren¡¯t you in your common rooms?¡± She questioned.


    ¡°Well we - ¡± Harry had wanted to answer, but was interrupted by someone he and Ron never expected.


    ¡°It was my fault Professor.¡± Hermione said, with her head hung low, ¡°I had wanted to defeat the troll myself because I read all about them you see, so ¨C so I went looking for it.¡±


    ¡°Miss Granger!¡±


    Harry and Ron were just as shocked, Hermione Granger, lying to a teacher, they turned towards the window to see if a storm was coming.


    ¡°But it nearly killed me, Jason had noticed what I was up to though and he got here just in time. He defeated the troll and saved me, Ron and Harry came after him with the same thought in mind¡­ so, it wasn¡¯t their fault.¡± When she finished, her shoulders immediately sagged.


    ¡°Miss Granger, I can¡¯t even begin to say how disappointed I am in you, five points will be deducted from Gryffindor!¡± Hermione¡¯s head couldn¡¯t sink any lower now, ¡°Now, if you¡¯re not injured, you better get to Gryffindor tower, the feast will be finished there.¡±


    Hermione went off.


    Professor McGonagall turned her head to Jason, Harry and Ron.


    ¡°Now you three, you should have called for help as soon as you knew what Miss Granger was up to, especially you Mr. Riley. Going off to fight a mountain troll by yourself, for someone so smart,you''re quite stupidly reckless.¡± She turned her sharp eyes to Jason, who suddenly found the troll very fascinating.


    ¡°Five points will be awarded to each of you, Jason for his defeat of the troll ¨C out of sheer dumb luck mind you ¨C and you two for bravely venturing forward for fellow Gryffindors. You may leave now, and make sure you get to your common rooms this time.¡±


    All three of them nodded at the same time, and made off. Though before they could exit the door Professor McGonagall asked a question that made everyone in the room turn their heads to Jason.


    ¡°By the way Mr. Riley, how did you defeat the troll?¡±


    ¡°It Tripped and fell.¡± Jason answered, without missing a beat. ¡°Clumsy creatures, trolls.¡±


    Professor McGonagall gave a cold snort, and waved him off, like she would a fly.


    Harry and Ron just smiled wryly at each other, and quickly hurried after Jason, who was quite a distance already.


    Harry and Ron had a much better impression of Hermione thereafter, so much so that they didn¡¯t even question when she started hanging out with them, they had seen her as more than a stranger now. They had charged forward for her, and they were sure that if matters were reversed she would now surely do the same for them.


    And Jason, well he never had a problem with her to begin with.
