Chapter 007 Healing! Healing for Everyone!

There were other two more spots of negative emotions that he could detect. He teleported to one of them. Just as before he appeared invisibly inside. Teleport is inherently different from Apparition and Portkey travel, the wizarding equivalents of instant transportation. Teleport is instantaneous while as apparition and travel by portkey take a few seconds the farther one goes. He could also travel to places he hadn't been to before with only a slight concentration of sending out an energy scouting. With his vast power it was merely a few seconds of inconvenience to locate places. He suspects that current magical wards cannot detect his way of travel. He shrugged. It's not his problem.

Giving his offer to the elves the same as before and easily subduing and rendering the despicable wizards who held them captive into drooling idiots, he sent the very thankful elves to the manor sending another warning to Shelley that another batch was coming.

Teleporting directly to the last place, this time it was not elves who were being held in tiny cages but different exotic and endangered magical species. Despicable, he thought angrily. Calming himself this time he first subdued the slavers and bound them with the extra shackles lying around on the filthy underground dungeon all the while scouring their memories. He was disgusted. Lucius Malfoy, the owner of this 'fine' establishment was a rich and influential politician. An upstanding member of society. He will be visiting him soon, he thought.

Finally making himself visible to the sentient creatures he looked around at the enlarged room and counted everyone. All of them were breeding pairs except for one. All of them relatively young. Merpeople in large water tanks, centaurs, nundus from the jungles of Africa, pegasi from Greece, different breeds of magical snakes, even the rare horned seprents native to the Americas, hippogryfs, bicorns, diricawls, and so many others it was astounding and disheartening. There was even a newly hatched pheonix still defenseless and still unable to fire travel. There were easily dozens here that he could count. How can this Malfoy fellow get his hands on so many rare magical creatures and how has nobody ever noticed there was a bunch of them here? After everyone of them noticed him he finally addressed them. Mewtwo rose high into the air so all could properly see him.

'Hear me, proud beings of magic! You were imprisoned here against your wishes. Ripped away from your homes. From your families. Put in locked cages like mere mindless beasts by greedy wizards.' He pointed to the unconscious wizards. He sent them his feelings of righteous fury for these creatures and his intension to help them. To these magical creatures they can feel his roiling powers. Deep and unending. Ready to be unleashed on the evils of this world. They stared at him in shock and reverence.

'I am Mewtwo. Before this I have rescued several house elves in a similar situation as yours. I have freed them and offered them sanctuary. Now, I offer the same to you. Do you wish to be free?' He asked them solemnly still feeling strongly for these creatures' plight.

Nervously the only male centaur with a white coat and black spots came forward to its cell door and bowed low.

"Mewtwo, the Honored One." Harry nearly twitched. What's up with these titles?! The centaur continued.

"I am named Arkatosh. We have been imprisoned here for many moons all of us at the mercy of humans. My…my mate also bears our son." The male centaur gestured for his clearly pregnant pale and gold spotted mate to come forward. She also bowed low in greeting to the powerful being before her. Arkatosh continued speaking.

"I beg of you, Honored One, if at all possible, please send us home. To the herd where we were separated from. It is presumptuous of me but my mate and I cannot survive without a herd." The male centaur was nearly crying. His mate and foal would not survive without the care and protection of a herd.

Mewtwo stared for a bit at him and directed his words at every creature looking at him.

'Is the wish of Arkatosh also your wish?' Nearly everyone agreed. They all wanted to come back to their natural habitats. Nearly everyone except the hatchling pheonix who chirped at him. The hatchling wanted to come with him as he didn't have a home of its own. He hatched in these dark dungeons and it was all he has ever known.

'Very well. Before you go I will heal you.'

Mewtwo spread out his hands and flew higher for better coverage.

'Life Dew' he whispered in his mind. A fine mist of sparkling water erupted from him touching everyone except the shackled wizards. Everywhere the powerful healing water droplets touched healed and removed the aches and pains of everyone slowly like a refreshing morning mist. He also directed it to the water-based creatures in open tanks. Shackles and cages were also opened. After a few minutes everyone was healed and crying in joy looking at him in reverence.

'Now. Close your eyes and open your mind to me. Do not be alarmed. I will not cause harm. I merely wish to know the place where you wish to be returned.' His words were firm but kind. Everyone obeyed and closed their eyes. Finally they were returning home. He first sent the centaur couple and the merpeople back to some forest in the Scottish Highlands. After that everyone disappeared one by one. Sending different people to different places all over the world, to the Americas, Greece, different parts of Europe, next was Egypt where the sphinxes lived, the jungles and safaris of Africa, Madagascar where some of the rare snakes called home, nine-tailed foxes in Japan, Yetis in Tibet, it was tiring even for him but with Calm Mind still in effect he did it. And that with the last, a pair of Demiguises, sent somewhere to the far east he breathed out a sigh of relief. The only one left was the baby pheonix. He was bone tired but he still had some things left for him. This saving business is really hard work.

'Come, little one. You will come home with me.' The little chick with tufts of fine golden feather chirped and flapped its useless wings at him in happiness. Shaking his head at its antics he levitated it to his arms carefully.

With one last look at the drooling and blanked-eyed wizards he teleported back to Potter Manor. Lucius Malfoy will get a special visit from him soon.

Appearing inside his room he immediately called out.

'Tilly. I am in my room.'

"Master Harry is back!" The elf popped out of the air excitedly.

'I am. Tilly can you conjure a nice basket for…him? Yes, him. He's still too young to fly.'

"A pheonix! Of course! Tilly will take care of master's pheonix immediately!" The elf snapped his fingers and a big basket filled with nice soft blankets appeared at the foot of the bed and Mewtwo settled the happily chirping bird into it. Another snap and some freshly picked berries appeared in a bowl near it. The bird happily ate them. Leaving him there Mewtwo started floating past the door and down the hallway.

'Thanks, Tilly. Is everyone at the Ballroom?'

"Yes, sir. Elveses are at the ballroom just as master asked."

'Good, then let's not keep them waiting.'

They hurried down the hallway and within a few moments they finally arrived.

"Master Harry, you is back!" Loki bounded to him wringing his hands. There were too many elves! He didn't know what to do with them. Shelley was currently directing different elves to some conjured cots and blankets. Even with her usual calm and stern demeanor, the number of elves was just too many. Some had severe injuries and malnutrition and some were too old or too young.

Harry-Mewtwo floated in the air right in the middle of the large ballroom.

'Shelley, Loki, Moppy, Tilly, prepare food for everyone. We will eat in the Great Hall. I will heal them momentarily. Go now.'

His elves trusted him and nodded and immediately did as ordered. He directed his sight to the elves below him who recognised him immediately and cheered.

'Please settle down. Many of you are still injured. I will begin healing you now.'

After the elves settled down he spread out his hands and did as before.

'Life Dew.' He really has a knack for healing. It's not as taxing as being made an instant teleporting machine. Harry thought wryly.

Everywhere the powerful healing water touched injuries and aching pains were quickly healed like fine mist in the morning air.

The house elves were again amazed! They have never seen such powerful magic. Cuts and broken bones were slowly mending before their eyes and the pain they had constantly felt from their previous abusers were slowly going away. They looked nothing like their previous selves.

Harry kept up the healing mist for a few minutes until he was sure that everyone was healed. Now he needs to address them. He floated down towards the ground and cleared his throat.

'Now, you have a choice. I know that house elves need to bond with a magical family so they continue to survive to long life. If you'd like you can bond with me. The choice is yours of course if you want to also work here. Or you can find your own wizarding family to bond with. I will help you find a respectable one if you want.'

"Gr…Great One is a wizard, Sir?" One elderly elf asked timidly.

Harry nearly smacked himself. He immediately transform into his human child form.

"I am Mewtwo. I am also a wizard. My name is Harry Potter. It is nice to meet you." Harry smiled kindly at them.

"Mewtwo Harry Potter has helped us escape and Mewtwo Harry Potter offered his home for us lowly elves. We will gladly bond to Master Mewtwo Harry Potter, Sir." The elderly elf nearly grovelled at his feet.

"Please, stand up. If we you are to bend with me then we will be family. Family does not grovel to each other, right?" He helped the old elf stand up.

"Also, I ask that you do not reveal that I am Mewtwo. Other wizards, aside from the elves who are already bonded to the Potter family, do not know of my other identity. Please just call me Harry."

The bonding process was fairly simple. It was mostly intent through a vow. It just took a lot of time to do each of the elves and some of them like the little babies cannot bond yet. By that time Harry really wanted to conk out but he was sooo hungry. He called for Loki to guide the elves to the great hall, which was only used for large gatherings, where a long table enough to seat the 60 or so elves was placed in the middle and a veritable feast was ready.

After enjoying a nice meal and patting his stomach in satisfaction he let Shelley direct the elves to their respective quarters. There was a part of the manor that held little rooms just for this occasion. Some centuries ago the Potter Manor boasted more than a hundred house elves but most of them are gone now. House elves can easily live up to 200 years or more but do not bear children often. Either the elves that managed the manor before have died out or the Potters never added any more elves since so the numbers never really recovered and it was just Shelley, Loki, Tilly, Moppy, and the little ones born a few months back. Twins. A girl and a boy. They're growing up fast too. He should really visit them sometime soon.

After a quick wash Harry gave some water to the little pheonix he left in his room earlier.

"I should name you. Or do you already have one?" Chirp…chirp! "You don't? Can I name you then?" Chirp! "How about…Alex? No? Sam? Goldie?" Chirp…chirp…chirppppp!!!!"Alright! Wow, you sure are picky." Chirp. "…how about Midas? It's from a muggle story. He was a King, you see. King Midas had all a king could ever wish for. Riches, a kingdom, and even a beautiful daughter. But Midas was also a very greedy king and thought that happiness was found in gold. So one time he wished with all his heart that everything he touched turned into gold. And what do you know his wish came true! But tragedy struck when one day he forgot himself when he hugged his daughter and turned her into a golden statue. Nowadays though when they say you have the Midas touch they say you have good fortune. With this name you could spread good fortune to anyone who hears your songs. So what do you think?" Harry looked at the chick on his lap who was mesmerised by his story. The chick flapped its featherless wings and chirped in excitement.

"Alright, then, Midas. Let's sleep now okay. I'm really tired. You should too. It's been a long day." He snickered at the bird's antics and returned him to his basket on the bedside table.

Waving his hand the crystal lights dimmed to a soft glow.

"Goodnight, Midas."

"Chirp."
