Awkward.

After the feast just as we were about to be escorted to the dorms. Lily Potter couldn't wait any longer.

"Mr.Flamel I was wondering if I could have a word." The Ravenclaw prefect looked at me to see if I would accept.

"Sure." I shrug and make my way over.

"I'll make sure he gets to the dorms fine. Thank you Penelope." She says to the Ravenclaw prefect.

After that we quietly make our way to her office as soon as the door closes she wrapped me in a hug and is sobbing and apologizing repeatedly.

Mmm mental stress is nasty. Sometimes you just gotta let it out. I just pat her back and comfort her.

After a few minutes of crying she proceeds to look at me and touch my face trying to memorize all my features.

"I was told you had died. You disappeared off the family tapestry and no one could find petunia or Vernon." She said sadly.

"Ah about that well you might wish to sit down also put on this necklace and don't take it off." I say pulling out a nice amulet I had made. This was in case I had some friends I didn't want having their mind read or altered.

She looks at it in confusion before sliding it over her head. Instantly her mind clears up. All sorts of little inconsistencies start popping up in her mind. Why did she give up her child? Why did they move to godrics hallow instead of staying at the potter manor? All sorts of other little things started to pop up. Whenever she had started asking questions her mind would suddenly be fine with things.

"You see most family rings have the ability to stop mind altering spells or drinks. Usually they come in sets." I say holding up the Flamel ring. "The potter family does indeed have a very nice set of lord and lady rings. They are often seen in some of the family photos. I wonder why yours doesn't have any protections or the like?" I ask her curiously as she looks at her ring.

"No? He wouldn't." She says glaring at it.

"Ah well that's really up for debate on who wouldn't do what at this point in time. Like a wrinkly old man convincing a lord and loving mother that their son was a squib and he would be safe in the muggle world where he was nearly beat to death. Or that somehow a crummy house in godrics hallow is safer than a mansion protected by wards and ancient magic." I say sitting down and making myself some tea as she just absorbs it all in shock.

"If you really can't figure out that you've been fooled I have no idea what to tell you. If you like I have a pensieve memory of when Perenelle Flamel was taking care of me." I pull out a pensieve she doesn't even notice where it came from and pour in a memory.

Without a second thought she dips her finger in to take a look. Some things have been edited out but the rest of it's rather nasty. It takes a few minutes before she pops out rather more pale than before and looks at me.

"Obscurial? Your an Obscurial?" She says in horror.

"Oh yes however that's all under control." A black mass of goo slides out from under my sleeve and wraps around my shoulder as I scratch it. "I've formed a kind of familiar pact with it. It's quite protective of me. In fact if you meant me any kind of harm you probably wouldn't be allowed near me or to touch me."

"What happened to your eyes?" She asks me.

"They were damaged and I had Perenelle replace them these are a bit special I can't tell you more right now though as you've got very little protection against people who read minds besides my amulet. If you want to know more I have a book on occulmency." I pass the book over to the woman who grabs it quickly.

She's not doing to well. To find out dumbledore screwed them over and James has probably been messing with her mind aswell? For what?

I pull the woman into a hug on my lap. "Relax, Relax." I say patting her back and trying to calm the woman down.

"Why would they do this?" She sobs out into my shoulder.

"Well For one any kind of Squibb in a wizarding family is highly frowned upon, plus did you ever try to question them or tell them no? Or did they ever act suspicious, sweeping things under the rug or just telling you stuff that doesn't really answer your questions before changing the subject." Her mind wanders back to where they did that tons of times.

Dumbledore never answering why he wanted jimmy as a disciple.

"If you want to ask questions to either of them make sure your never alone when you do it. I'd advise asking Perenelle to go with you. Also that necklace will heat up whenever someone tries to hit you with compulsion spells, confusion spells, or tries to make you drink potions that alter the mind." She just nods absentmindedly.

"You should probably get some sleep aswell." I say easily picking up the fragile woman. "Also you need to put on some weight. Your so scrawny." I lay her down in her bed and cover her up.

"Wait! You don't blame me do you? For what happened to you?" She asks me with wide eyes.

"Nah. I blame James and Dumbledore." I say with a chuckle.

I write down a floo number.

"Use this to get ahold of Perenelle tomorrow and then you two can go and deliver swift justice. Make sure you bring her along okay?" I say making her promise and she does.

"Alright I promise." She says placing the occulmency book near the paper.

I leave the room and head up to the Ravenclaw dorm. I owned a whole other hogwarts how would I not know the Ravenclaw dorms? After answering a riddle I head inside and find my room. Ravenclaw and Slytherin both get personal rooms. Honestly I would have loved hufflepuff just because it's near the kitchens. But I didn't want to be a hufflepuff.
