The Trapdoor

Hagrid- are you ok, Harry? Rainy?

When we got to Hagrid, Malfoy was with him and he was really worried.

Rainy- of course we are fine. What, do you think a dark lord can scare me?

Hagrid- don't take this lightly! He could have killed you.

Rainy- well, he tried... but you should be concerned with Harry, his scar was hurting really bad, it seems.

Harry- yeah...

Hagrid- well, we are coming back to the castle.

And so we did. Hermione was all the way really worried about Harry and me, but i quickly shifted the attention to Harry. So while they were talking i was thinking, Holy! Would have been a much better, he seemed ghost-like and is a dark lord. Well, i'll try next time.

When we reached our common room they were exhausted, but that didn't stop them from starting a conversation.

Hermione- then you-know-who is out there?

Harry- it seems so...

Hermione- Harry you need to be careful, and you too Rainy. if the death eaters are after you, that means you-know-who is after you too.

Rainy- i know how to defend myself, you should worry about Harry... he froze when we saw him. And then the scar begun to hurt... he was pretty useless.

Harry- Hey!

Rainy- oh sorry! I thought that was what happened. Can you tell me what were you doing while i was protecting you and me from a killing curse?

Harry-eh, no, you said that righ- wait, a killing curse?

Rainy- you've got it in your memories right? A green light. He used another green spell tonight, i'm pretty sure it wasn't expelliarmus.

Hermione- that's scary...

Rainy- it was... i'm going to bed before you guys drag me to another ''adventure''. i need some rest and i need to replenish my mana. Bye.

Hermione- wait! I- i- Thank you.

Rainy- whenever, you, need it. See you later Hermione.

Harry- bye

Rainy- bye

Then i went to sleep. Or so they thought, i wasn't sleepy so i begun to talk with Odin. And i saw that i was stronger again. I didn't say how much better i got after training with Malfoy, but now i have 103 mana and i've learned Aura! And Life! Both pretty useful. Odin said that Aura! gives me the chance to use a Limit Break even without being half dead. And Life! awakens someone knocked out and heals a little. Cura! Is better healing but this can heal fatigue too. Anyway Aura!'s cost is 32 mana and Life!'s is 20 mana.

The rest of the days until the final exams were spent studying. I couldn't stop learning magic just because i wanted to train other things. And when the exams came, the writing exams were normal, but the practice ones i think they were very impressed. On transfiguration i had to turn a mouse into a snuffbox and as points were given the more prettier it was, i transfigured it into a silver snuffbox with my pendant lion on the top, and the Gryffindor banners on the sides. And on charms i made a pineapple tapdance while others pineapples where giving the music. I couldn't do anything extra on potions, but i was the first to complete it with my experimentation.

When we finished the history of magic exam, it was over. I had done everything i could so i went to the lake to sit with my feet on the water. While i was there, i saw Harry and Ron approach.

Rainy- hey, how was the exams?

Ron- i don't want to know until they give me the points. There's no point on worrying too much.

Rainy- well, Harry has a bad face... it's the scar?

Harry- yes, it is. I think it's a warning. Something dangerous is going to happen...

Rainy-... it could be... anyway i'm going to the common room, i need to prepare some things.

Then i rushed to the common room to prepare all my luggage, i was going to the trapdoor now. I prepared everything, i created this last week a suit like the ones i saw the SeeDs wearing, so i was wearing the SeeD clothing, my ring-rapier on the right hand, my wand on the left hand, some light armor behind the clothes and some food and water. I was going inside the trapdoor all week so that anyone tried to steal the stone, and because i wanted to experience the traps that were in there. So before dinner i was in front of Fluffy's door.

Rainy- (this is it. Let's go Odin.)

Odin- (yes, i hope you are ready.)

Then i entered the door and when Fluffy saw me begun to attack, so i quickly dodged to the right and casted Command! Magic! Sleep! Just after that, the dog fell sleppy to the floor, so i entered the trapdoor.

Rainy- sorry Fluffy but i need to take care of other things.

Jumping inside the trapdoor, i fell on a giant plant that i saw it was a Devil's Snare. It begun to move and i didn't want to use magic! So i used my wand instead,

Rainy- Lumos!

With that i could reach the door before the plant could do anything. In the next room i saw a lot of keys flying, a broomstick, and a locked door. So i knew what i had to do, but i didn't want to. I'm pretty normal with my broomstick. I looked to my magic! And i saw that i didn't have anything, so i took the broomstick and after some struggling, i got the key.

In the next room i saw a giant chessboard.

Rainy- Ron would be pretty useful here... well, he's not here.

So i went ahead and took the king's position, losing wasn't an option. After that what followed was an epic chess game that i won't explain, or that i would say but i won with the scholar's mate... that was absurd, but i won't complain. On the next room... this was a good test! A giant troll! But...

Rainy- (i can't kill it... it would alert Quirrell if he comes down here.)

So what i did was another sleep! And to the next room. On the next room, both the door i went in and the next one were covered in fire. I saw a potion's puzzle, with the rules on a parchment. And i have to say it was brilliant. I really think only some wizards would stay here forever. Lucky, i wasn't one of them. I spent 20 minutes and i had to draw on the back of the parchment, but i got the right answer, and i erased it with magic. After that i drank from the little bottle, and i went through the fire.

There i was. On the last room. I saw the Mirror of Erised in the middle, and i thought that it was Dumbledore's test. I didn't want the stone so i went to the mirror and begun to see my world again. It was really beautiful. I saw the SeeD clothes once again and i was happy i made them right. And 2 hours later i was sitting on one of the stairs of the room, eating a sandwich, i had just recovered my mana, when Quirrell appeared through the fire door. He got surprised after seeing me, so i stood up and greeted him.

Rainy- Greetings to the last test to get the stone, professor.

Quirrell- w-w-what are y-y-you d-doing h-here, ms.L-l-lionheart?

Rainy- well, i thought, why not create another test before the last one? So i came here with food for a week. I thought that Voldemort would be with you, but, well, only versus you i have chances.

Quirrell- how did you... it doesn't matter, i'll get the stone, and no reckless kid will stop me! Dumbledore is not inside Hogwarts, i won't get another opportunity like this one.

Rainy- hahaha! And did you really thought that only Dumbledore can stop you Quirrell? What, now are you going to tell me that you are Voldemort? Haha...

???-let me talk to her.

Rainy-!!!

Quirrell- but master...

???-Do it!!

Then Quirrell took off his turban and i saw a face behind his head.

Rainy- What the... what IS that!

???-I'm Lord Voldemort girl.

Rainy-!!! so that's why you were eating unicorns...

Voldemort- are you not afraid? Do you think i won't kill you because you are a kid?

Rainy- please, you already tried in the forest. But i guess if i defeat you i'll get 2 dark wizards for the price of 1.

Voldemort- you... girl, you have another option, i know your strength, and i know who you really are. Help me, fulfill your purpose on this world, and you'll be free.

Rainy- oh! Didn't i tell you? I have recovered part of my memories without your help, thanks to this mirror over here. I don't need you Voldemort.

Voldemort- that's it, Quirrell, kill this girl.

After that Quirrell faced me and when he took his wand, i conjured Joyeuse and took my own wand, after 5 seconds of waiting, he used the green spell once again, so i dodged to the right using Command! Magic! Double! Bravery! Haste! After that, i went forward and i attacked him with a thrust with the rapier, but he dodged easy to his right and casted another killing curse on point-blank distance, so i used a protego just in time to stop the curse, but the recoil pushed me back some distance. Just when i was going to continue fighting i saw someone entering the room.

Rainy- Harry?? what are you doing here?

Then Quirrell used another killing curse on Harry, thing that surprised both of us, i then ran towards Harry and using Command! Magic! Double! Shell! Protect! On me, i stepped between Harry and the curse, blocking it with Joyeuse. I felt the magic going through the blade to my hand, to my heart and to my soul but the shell seemed to do the job, because even if i got hit, i just fell like a wooden puppet to the floor, before regaining my conscience. What i saw from the floor was Harry shocked and crying? Before he begun to attack Quirrell, he grabbed Quirrell's arm and it disintegrated, so Quirrell jumped away from Harry and i used that moment.

I sneaked behind Quirrell and when Voldemort saw me i thought Command! Special! Thrustara! Then my body moved on his own more or less, because i could aim, i thrusted Quirrell's Heart who had turned to see me, and i ended with a point-blank expulso. I was protected by Shell and it was quite the hit, so i can't imagine the hit Quirrell took. But it seems it was enough. Quirrell had died, and Voldemort escaped not without passing through Harry first, knocking him down. Not that i cared. Because i also felt really tired, maybe the magics! Were wearing off, but i fell to the floor too before i could cast cura!
