June 26, 1997

Harry awoke from another nice undisturbed sleep. Another benefit of Odin's Eye was the fact that being caught in a time capsule, made it much more difficult for Voldemort to reach his mind. Also all of his meditation from the previous month has had a very nice effect on him. He felt much more relaxed, and knew he could manage his anger much better. He would always be a firecracker where his temper was concerned. He was wired that way, but now he felt he could start controlling it much better. After his exercise routine he had a long steamy shower and then a huge breakfast of steak and eggs with coffee.

Now long after breakfast, Hedwig came back with some letter, one was from Remus and the other one was from Dumbledore.

Dear Harry

I hope this letter finds you well. I am glad to hear that the muggles are not being a pain in the ass this year. It looks like our welcoming party had some effects after all. Harry, believe or not I know what you are going through, you lost a godfather and I lost a brother.

I know that you need proper time to grieve, as do I. I have informed everyone to leave you alone. I do not know if they will heed my warnings? When you are ready, let us know. Molly was not too happy about this, but I showed her the letter and she knows your wishes. One person I can't seem to read right now is the Head Master. He has always kept his cards close but now they seem to be hidden from view. I believe he mentioned you coming to headquarters by the third week of August. Until then if you need me you know where to find me.

Sincerely

Remus Lupin

Well Harry thought, if there is one person who can understand, it's Remus. Harry was very apprehensive about reaching Remus just yet. The werewolf might harbour some resentment towards him for being partly responsible for Sirius death.

Harry,

It has just come to my attention that against my wishes Gringotts will be contacting you about the will of Sirius Black. I am sorry but at this time you will be unable to go to Diagon Alley for a reading. It is simply not worth the risk.

I also ask that you refrain from leaving your relatives house. For the wards to protect you to their fullest extent you need to be inside. I know you like to spend time in the park down the street but I must insist that you discontinue this practice and remain indoors.

Unfortunately you will also be unable to leave Privet Drive until third week of August. I will arrange for someone from the Order to obtain your school supplies before term starts and arrange for a guard to pick you up and deliver you to Headquarters.

Let me know if your scar is bothering you, as it may be critical information that the Order is able to act on and save innocent people. Please remember that it was not your fault with regards to Sirius death. He had always wanted to go like a hero, which is exactly how he went, defending his love one. Don't worry about my possessions in my office, they have already been fixed or replaced.

Best Regards,

HOGWARTS SCHOOL

of WITCHCRAFT and WIZARDRY

Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore

(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc., Chf. Warlock,

Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. of Wizards)

Harry read his letter and began feeling the blood rush to his ears. He could not believe the gall of that bastard. He was forbidding him to leave his house! Or go to the park! Who does he bloody think he is?

'He is not my guardian. Hell I don't even trust him anymore, and as far as I'm concerned he is simply a benevolent Voldemort in his own right.' He began his breathing techniques to bring his temper under control. It would not do to alert the Order of accidental magic. That would lead to way too many questions. Now that he thought about it, he had not received any mail from the traitors either.

'Well it's for the best,' he thought. When he thought about it, Dumbledore would probably shit himself when he would find out the little changes that were made regarding Sirius' will. He suddenly felt an evil smirk come on his face.

Harry decided that for every month spent under Odin's Eye he would make a new work studying and training would dictate his priorities for the month.

He first needed a place for Hedwig to be happy and free. She could not possibly stay cooped up with him 30 days at a time. He decided to write to Hagrid, and ask him to take care of Hedwig. He knew deep down he wouldn't mind. He would use a little guilt play as well.

Dear Hagrid

I am currently residing with the muggles and as much as it pains me. Dumbledore has just told me that I can no longer receive mail from anyone. The muggles don't really like Hedwig to be flying around the Neighbourhood as it might get the neighbours talking.

She is not happy just staying in my room. I have decided that the place for her would be to stay with you. If you can't keep her, please send her to Ginny Weasley with an explanation. Hope your have a nice summer and say hi to Grawp for me.

4 weeks later Odin Time

Harry could not believe the success he was having with his Occlumency and Legilimency training. Just as he had thought, borrowing the ideas from muggle computer science had allowed him to properly restructure his mind. He had Anubis show him how to imprint his thoughts with his magic. This had been very useful. He had imprinted all of his thoughts with his magical signature and had properly broken his thoughts into access folders.

He had treated his brain as the equivalent of a hard drive. He then encapsulated the concept of ROM and RAM. His ROM would contain his very deepest memories (his parents, girls, prophecy…etc.). His RAM would be the equivalent of his conscious memories. His RAM would retrieve knowledge from his protected hard drive folders and make them readily accessible.

When finished the conscious knowledge would flow back from the RAM to his folders. It had been very slow at first. He had to create the major folders and subfolders. He then had to encrypt each thought and folders with his magical signature. He had created folders and subfolders for all of his memories and knowledge. He had a folder for Happy Memories and subfolders to further define his happy memories.

These were broken down into friendship, family memories, girlfriends, Major events like winning the House cups….etc. He had done the same thing with his unhappy memories. He had subfolders for the Dursleys, Voldemort, and Snape…etc. He decided to create a separate folder for Light and Dark Magic. He decided to create subfolders for the different branches of magic. In each category there were subfolder for charms, transfiguration, conjuring, DADA, Dark Arts, Medic Magic, Apparition, Portkey, Mind Magic, Arithmancy, Runes, Blood Rituals, Potions, Duelling, Physical Combat, Trades magic such as wand making, Trunk building, sword making…etc. and on and on it went.

He had done the same thing for the muggle sciences and created folders and subfolders for all of the different branches. He created a separate folder for Magical Auras as well. He was now able to feel and see magical auras. Anubis had proven to be a very good teacher. At first he had not understood the concept of magical auras until something in his physics book had allowed him to grasp what he was looking at and how to manipulate it.

Essentially the natural frequencies of an object are merely the harmonic frequencies at which standing wave patterns are established within the object. These standing wave patterns represent the lowest energy vibrational modes of the object. While there are countless ways by which an object can vibrate each associated with a specific frequency. Objects favour only a few specific modes or patterns of vibrating. The favoured patterns of vibration are those that result in the highest amplitude vibrations with the least input of energy.

So understanding and manipulating magical auras was simply using magical energy to emulate or transform the natural standing harmonic frequency of an object, a magical creation or a living entity. All objects and energy in the universe have an aura that can be manipulated. Harry now began to fully understand the links between magic and matter.

All things in the universe possess this magical energy. It was simply locked away for most of them. Magical energy was just that: another force of nature that people with this gift could produce and manipulate.

Magical energy was another fundamental force of physics. It was another part of what the muggles physicist referred to as the four fundamental forces of physics. You had the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, the electromagnetic, the gravitational and Harry believed that magical energy had to be part of this equation. A muggle by the name of Einstein essentially proved through his equation E=mC² that matter can be transformed into energy and vice versa. Magical energy is a very refined energy that can transform matter into energy and back to matter at will.

With his aura folder created, he then added the entire magical aura recordings that he knew. This essentially involved casting a spell and remembering its aura. This had many benefits. If he could not remember a particular spell he could simply recall the effect he was looking for and this would force him to recall that particular aura.

In studying aura he had discovered that it was not necessary to yell or even spell out the incantation. He learned that it was much more important picturing what you wanted to do and add as much detail as possible. Then convey the necessary amount of emotion behind the spell. Emotions were a clear mental description of what you wanted the spell to achieve and were the major factors in successfully carrying out a spell.

When he had finished with this folder he began building his walls. This stage had occurred on his third week. He had finally settled on a proper firewall. He pictured his mind surrounded by a 3-foot thick Tungsten Carbide Sphere, which happened to be one of the strongest metals around. He then pictured his sphere with 4-sided razor blades extending three to 4 feet out of the sphere. He pictured each blade dripping with scorpion and snake venom. He conjured a mental picture of the net effect of being cut with the blade. He pictured a person suddenly drying up and becoming mummified. He pictured inhumane screams and horrific pain.

Now he needed a way to get out of his sphere in order to practice his Legilimens attacks. He modified his sphere to include two of the purest cut diamonds imbedded in his sphere. These would be the only access to his mind. These diamonds represented the connection to his eyes. Now he decided to physically charge the diamonds with all of the magical energy that he could muster. This had been utterly draining work.

He had read in his magical theory books, that it was extremely difficult to overcome a person's magical energy. The more energy that was available, the more difficult it became to overcome the defences. If enough energy was supplied it became impossible to breach. The very first channels that Harry wanted to develop to their maximum potential were to his mind. By the fourth week he had achieved his goal. It had been supremely painful. His mind could now call on as much magical energy as it needed to overcome any attempt to breach his mental entry points.

Harry had also made some startling discoveries when he had catalogued his memories. He had analyzed his memories from his third year. He noticed that he had subconsciously analyzed the magical auras of the Dementors during their attacks on him.

This was surprising because he did not remember doing this consciously. His skill of reading magical auras must have been triggered out of fear during the lake incident when his godfather had nearly had his soul sucked out. He had spent a great deal of time analyzing these auras and consciously memorizing their intricate signatures.

He had come to the conclusion that the dementors fed on the magical energy of all inanimate and living things. They did this to power the spell that they used to feed on negative emotions. This is why people felt very cold and weak in the presence of Dementors. They were being ripped of their magical energy and the Legilimens effect of the dementors spell allows them to feed on a person's positive emotion.

This has the effect of leaving a person bereft of happy thoughts. This results in partial or total incapacitation for that person. This theory was a major discovery on his part. Without knowing the particular spell that allowed the dementors to feed on magical energy, he has still been able to duplicate it by bringing forth its magical aura.

After much practice, he had been able to release the aura of the spell. Harry had clearly noticed a dropping of the temperature in his room and had noticed himself filling with magical energy. This was elating to say the least.

The next thing that he had done was to analyze the modified Legilimency spell that the dementors used to bring forth a person's positive emotions. Harry believed that he could do the same thing. Because his Occlumency shields would be at their maximum strength, he would not be bombarded with their emotions.

This aura would be the equivalent of a computer virus. It would seek and target a specific set of files. This virus would attack happy thoughts. This should sufficiently weaken a person's mental defence to allow him further access to their subconscious. If he became skilled enough he could establish a Trojan by imprinting some of his magical energy into a person's brain. This would help him set up a back door for future mental attack. This was fucking brilliant, he thought.

He had further practiced recalling the magical aura of the modified spell and noticed his magical energy dropping. 'I guess this explained why the dementors fed on surrounding magical energy. They needed it to keep powering the modified Legilimency spell.' He had no one to practice this particular aspect of the dementor's spell on.

However he was very confident that he had done it right. Harry then set out to further strengthen his firewalls. He pictured a form of Dementors patrolling the outside of his mind sphere. His Dementors were imprinted with his magical signature. They would patrol the wall to detect any foreign magical signature. Upon detection they would initiate a full Legilimency attack.

Of course that being said, Voldemort was immune to dementors, so having remembered the Old Coot's words about positive love energy, he made sure that his sphere entry points had a direct channel to his happy memories folder. If Voldemort tried to enter his mind, he would not only fight his magical energy but also be subjected to his entire collection of memory base of love. This would surely deter him from further probing into his mind or have the urge to plant false memories.

He now felt that he had completely mastered Occlumency and had developed excellently at Legilimency skills. The only thing he lacked in making him an outstanding Legilimens was practice.

One of his most important discoveries had been his scar. As an experiment in reading magical auras, he had looked in a mirror to see if he could analyze his own magical aura. He had been very pleased to see that his aura was a very bright bluish white colour mixed with green tinge. According to Anubis this meant that he was at the very top range for a magical power. When he looked at his scar he noticed that its aura was red mixed with black. With more probing he found out that behind his scar at the frontal lobe of his brain was a small sphere of magic energy that was not his own!

It appeared that it had been growing over the last two years. Harry had panicked and asked Anubis to confirm his findings. Anubis had confirmed for him that this magical energy was not his own. He also said that the sphere was very old and contained much information. He then asked Anubis if it was possible to stop the sphere from growing and destroy it. Anubis said that it was possible, but that in the process of destroying this link, he should also strive to access the information contained in the sphere.

This discovery had been a total shock to Harry. It meant that he now understood the extent of his connection to Voldemort and now believed that if he did not break this sphere it would continue to grow until their very soul ware connected.

If this happened it would not matter who killed whom, they would both perish. With these thoughts in mind, Harry decided to completely eradicate this influence on his mind. If it were possible he would try to control the link and not Voldemort. Every time Voldemort had controlled the link he felt extreme pain. He now understood why that was. In creating a link to his mind, Voldemort had to push his own magical energy against his, and the clashing of magical energy was extremely painful.

The first thing he did was to focus on creating the widest magical channel possible to the sphere around his scar. By looking at the current channel it was extremely weak. No wonder Voldemort had been able to overpower him. Although it had been incredibly painful, he had managed to create the biggest possible channel to the alien sphere. He knew this because he no longer felt pain when trying to enlarge the channel. The channel now looked like a very wide river.

With the help of Anubis to help him put a block against the mental pain, he began to push against the sphere with his own core energy. He pictured a huge spike against the sphere and began to push more and more, and the pain had been unimaginable. After many days he had finally pushed through the sphere. What he discovered in the sphere had been nothing short of amazing.

The sphere had contained the majority of Voldemort memories. Harry believed that on that fateful night that he had been cursed 15 years ago Voldemort was forced to transfer his memories to him. Voldemort in the process of having his soul stripped from his body did not have the energy to both maintain his soul in the living plane and maintain all of his memories. In the process, the curse must have created the link and a storage medium so that Voldemort would be able to access all of his past memories should he come back to life.

Voldemort must have known this. Using his blood during the resurrection ceremony had two effects. It would remove part of his mother's protection. This would make it easier to set up a mind link to him. Voldemort must have recognized the importance of his connection to Harry during 5th year after Ron's dad was injured. It would also explain why he has been growing stronger and at an accelerated rate.

Tom must have been retrieving his past memories from Harry's mind during his linkups. What Harry now realized was that Voldemort had only been able to retrieve a copy of those memories, the original were still very much stored in his mind. Harry realized that that day he had to deactivate Odin's Eye. He proceeded to do just that. On his next time flux, he would concentrate on retrieving all of Voldemort useful knowledge and destroy his magical sphere.

With this little bit of knowledge, Harry began to sift through all of Voldemort memories and discovered that up to know he had only retrieved about 65 percent of his original memories. Well, Harry thought, this would be all that he would retrieve. He would have to re-learn the other 35 percent if he wanted them. He carefully sorted through all of the memories. He had been amazed at the man's knowledge. He would have to finish this on his next time flux.

June 27, 28 and 29 Odin's Month

12 weeks later Odin Time

Toward the end of his fourth month, Harry had successfully sifted through Voldemort knowledge and in the process had acquired beyond NEWT levels knowledge in subjects he had never studied. He had filled both his Dark Arts and Light Magic folders and subfolders. He had filled it with such topics as Arithmancy, Conjuring, Runes, blood magic. He had retrieved thought magic, rituals, dark arts, duelling, potions, charms, transfiguration, spell creation and Legilimency.

He had destroyed all of the memories relating to peoples torture and other sick memories. The only ones he kept were those of his parents on the night of their deaths. He had cried that night when he had seen the true sacrifice his parents had made on his behalf and the unconditional love that they had displayed. This had further pushed him in his learnings.

Even though he had gained all of this knowledge, he still felt that he had to review all of his school material from first year to his NEWT level books. The knowledge that Voldemort had possessed was over half a century old, and there had been a lot of spell creation in that time. Another benefit of sifting through his thoughts was that he had gained a very good profile of the man's psyche. He would use this info in their next encounter.

Harry had come to the conclusion that he did not want to destroy his link to Voldemort. He wanted to control the connection instead. After the memories had been sorted, he had poured vast quantities of his own magical energy into Voldemort's magical sphere. Towards the end of his 8th week, he had finally completely destroyed the last vestiges of Voldemort's magical energy. He was very relieved to know that his soul would remain intact and he would no longer suffer the splitting headaches that had plagued him in his 5th year.

Harry then spent considerable energy adding barriers to the link and reversing the magical conduit that linked Voldemort mind to his. Through deep meditation, he had seen in his minds eye the shape and structure of the link or conduit as he called it. With the help of Anubis, he had poured enormous amounts of energy into transforming the conduit to facilitate the flow of energy his way. He did this bit by bit and in a very subtle manner. He did not want to alert Voldemort that he no longer controlled the connection. He had been able to change the conduit up to the surface of Voldemort mind.

He had not penetrated his mind as not to alert him of the changes. He had then changed the colour of his magical energy to closely resemble Voldemort energy signature. If Voldemort tried to link up to him, he would see the connection as his but in reality it would be Harry's own energy emulating his. Harry had one purpose for this.

When their final confrontation came to pass, he would pour a massive amount of energy through the link and utterly distract Voldemort during their final meet. The mind highway now utterly favoured him and he would push his advantage to its fullest. This weapon could make the difference between living and dying. He would make sure that he was the only one standing when that day came.

Harry had quickly realized the benefits of mastering Occlumency. He was able to absorb and recall knowledge at an incredible speed. By working with aura magic, he had developed a photographic memory. His ability to concentrate on a task had increased exponentially. He was able to completely exclude all outside intrusion while he was concentrating. This would be very useful when practicing magic at Hogwarts. The know-it-all was in for a major ass kicking this year.

Harry now felt that he was fully complete in the arts of mind magic. He felt he was as good as they come, and had invented a whole new approach to Occlumency. He now needed more test subject to practice his Legilimency. Harry believed that he had also discovered far more powerful technique of reaching into another persons mind. As his attack he pictured an Ocean of water surrounding the person's brain, he would picture the person's brain at a shallow depth and look for any cracks.

If he found a crack he would follow it until he was in that person's brain. He would then bring forth the equivalent of a calming charm, which would remove any panicked from the subject and thus allow for a full scan. If the person were versed in the arts of Occlumency, he would mentally project a greater Ocean depth on the mind, which was equivalent to more magical energy pressure.

There was a limit of course. The greater the pressure applied the bigger the energy drains on the Legilimens. This method along with his Dementors virus should be more than enough to distract his opponent and allow him to slip by any defences. If he ran out of time he would try and plant a Trojan.

All that was needed now was to practice his meditation and Occlumency twice a day to maintain his shields and all would be perfect. He would only need 10 minutes per session. He could reach his magical core in seconds now and the remainder of the time would be left to sort through his surface memories and clear his mind.

Another thing he had found easy was Apparition. During the sifting of his memories he had recalled being chased by Dudley and his gang and remembered ending up on top of the school roof. In analyzing that particular memory, he realized that he had subconsciously willed himself to apparate to the roof.

Now that he recalled how Apparating felt, and what his state of mind was at the time he felt he could easily duplicate the process. He had read the theory of course, not wanting to splinch himself. According to his books, there were three ways to apparate. One was to apparate to a place that you already knew. The second was to look at a picture and will yourself there. The final and hardest way was to apparate by co-ordinates.

The way to do this was to bring out a very detailed image of the place you wanted to go, and allow your magic to surround your body. You then willed yourself to your destination. He had been making very good progress at increasing his core channels and creating surface channels. He was able to will his magic to his body very easily. His first try involved Apparating from his bedroom to the downstairs kitchen. He had a clear mental picture of the kitchen and willed his magic to the surface of his skin, He felt himself slide down a conduit and before he knew it he was standing in the kitchen.

He had forced himself to feel and remember that feeling. He memorized that particular aura and filed it. All his books had clearly stressed that one should always have complete control of his mind and not loose concentration at any time during the process otherwise it would lead to a spectacular splinch. That is also the reason that an injured person should not attempt to apparate. The pain would muddle their concentration. In case of injury you should always use a portkey.

The last week of his time flux he had the first two types of Apparating. He had become quite proficient at it. When the time flux ended he would have to practice coordinate Apparating. Coordinate Apparating involved memorizing a map grid which was based on longitude and latitude coordinate. You then willed yourself to a specific location on the map.

It required a lot of concentration. For his test he had picked out an Atlas map of Scotland. He picked a remote spot in the Highlands overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The only thing he did not like about Apparating was the noise. You could limit the noise but could never get rid of it. Also there was the fact that such things as anti- apparition wards that could keep you from Apparating was highly irritating to say the least.

Harry thought about Hogwarts and wondered how the anti-Apparating wards worked? It did not seem to affect the elves somehow, why? They could punch through the wards where human wizards and witches could not. He knew that their magic was different but there had to be something equivalent to what they used. I'll bet no one thought that it could be done.

If he could find a way to emulate the elves' Apparating method, then the advantages in a battle would be incalculable. How many times had he heard stories about Aurors getting iced because they could not apparate out of those damn anti-apparition wards?

Well he would work on that problem on his next set of time flux. He went into the hallway and deactivated Odin's Eyes. By the time he was done supper, he decided to take the night off and get some relaxation.

After feeding Anubis, Harry flipped his T.V on and decided to watch this American science fiction series Stargate SG-1.

Tonight's series was Meridian where SG-1 visits Kelowna and discovers Naquadria a derivative of Naquadah, which the less-advanced civilization is using to develop a weapon of mass destruction.

Well this looked pretty good. He made himself some flavoured popcorn and enjoyed his evening. The next day Harry woke up early. After he had finished his morning routine, he decided to practice Apparating by co-ordinate. He made sure that he had his invisibility cloak, and some pocket money. You never knew when it would be needed.

He checked his watch and decided to go for it. He looked at his map and memorized the grids. He willed his magic to surround him and then clearly pictured his coordinates. He then willed himself there. Before he knew it he was sliding down the conduit. In seconds he had travelled halfway across England and apparated within 5 ft of his intended coordinate. Harry looked around and seeing nobody he did a little happy dance.

He repeated the process 5 more times. On his last try he ended up in Ireland. He finally pictured his bedroom and in no time he found himself back on his bed. God that was awesome he thought but it sure was draining. Harry treated himself to a massive dinner. He ate a full roast beef with mashed potatoes and York Shire Pudding. He included a delicious mushroom sauce, and a pitcher of pumpkin juice to top it off. By the time he was finished, he nearly puked himself he was so full.

No matter he thought, the protein was doing him wonders. Since his workout regiment he had put on a lot of muscles. No longer was he the little scrawny kid, he could clearly define the muscles in his chest, arms and legs and let's not forget a full set of sculpted abdominals. Man, he was turning into a sexy bitch, he thought to himself. He would have to fix his vision somehow; the glasses really made him look dorky. Now to make up a new study schedule

24 weeks later Odin Time

The last 24 weeks had seen some truly incredible discoveries for Harry. He had figured out how to apparate using neutral energy. Harry had gone to Diagon alley and sent and owl post to Dobby requesting a meeting with him. Harry had explained that he was trying to find new ways to fight dark wizards and needed to study Dobby's magical aura and energy signature. After having Dobby apparate throughout the house, Harry had figured out that Elves magic was based on a different energy signature. It was very complex and had many layers to their magical energy.

Harry had finally figured out that wards had a central focal point or power source. They also had different ways of feeding on magical energy and converting it. Some wards used ambient magical energy to replenish themselves such as cosmic radiation or the sun's energy. Other wards used magical energy from magical beings to replenish themselves. Some wards were tuned to magical blood such as the ones on his house, which were attuned to a specific magical signature. There were wards that replenished themselves by feeding on ground energy. What was common to all of them was the fact that wards had a focal power source and converted magical energy to a specialized magnetic fields.

This is where the link between wards and magical beings existed. They both converted magical energy into a stream of coherent electrons at the core. In the case of someone Apparating, the magical energy that covered a person's body, would transform into a stream of coherent super condensed electrons that in turn created an extremely localized magnetic field that was powerful enough to warp the fabric of time around that person.

It would then create the equivalent of a small wormhole that would instantaneously transport the person to a location of choice. The problem was that the intense magnetic field had a very specific orientation. Ward that made use of the same electrical energy and they also created a magnetic field of the same orientation. Therefore like two magnets with the same pole, they repelled each other. That was how anti-apparition wards functioned.

Harry had poured a lot of study into muggle physics, and had been very impressed with their knowledge of the physical world. They were a lot more advanced then the magical world that was for certain. Harry figured that if he could transform the magical energy from an electron base to a neutron base then the resulting neutrality should allow him to slip through any anti-apparition wards.

He used the Internet very effectively and found out about neutrinos. Apparently these subatomic particles could pass through anything. They were completely neutral. There were three types of neutrinos: electron, tau, and muon. The more detectable ones were based on electron oscillation frequency. Harry figured that would be the easiest to emulate. The only problem was that he had no idea what their auras looked liked. He needed to go to Switzerland at the CERN institute for nuclear research.

According to the Internet article, this lab should provide him the information he needed.

Cyclotron Institute scientists also carry out research with relativistic heavy-ion projectiles using accelerators at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. The use of extremely high energies, presently up to 200 GeV/nucleon, allows nuclear matter to be compressed to densities even beyond those present in neutron stars

Harry had gone there three months ago and had managed to get himself in the main lab area. He had actually watched several atomic collisions. Using his magical abilities he had been able to track and record the magical auras of several neutrinos. He now had a thorough idea of what they looked like and how their energy makeup behaved. It had taken him another two months to practice converting his magical energy into neutrinos.

He had successfully apparated using this new form of energy last month. He found that in this mode of travel his concentrated neutrino mass allowed him to simply punch through the fabric of space time and tunnel to his new destination. Using this energy he became invisible and could pass through any matter. He figured he was achieving some kind of very advanced quantum phasing.

The best part was that he did not create a magnetic field and could therefore pass through any wards. He tested that theory by Apparating to the 5th year Gryffindor tower. He was absolutely ecstatic with his results. He knew that the wards would not detect him, as there was no magnetic field to trigger. God magic was grand! He was having the best summer of his life. Hermione would be so jealous of his discoveries. The know-it-all always tried to make everyone look stupid. Let's see how she reacts when the roles are reversed.

He could now create timed portkey, touch and go portkey and reusable portkey. Those last ones were very draining. He found out that the difficulty in creating portkeys was that you had to program your Apparating magical signature into an object. You then have to leave enough residual energy to punch through the space-time continuum and allow the person or persons to be displaced to the new location. Since everyone's magical energy is slightly different.

The meshing of the different magical signatures causes a very small quantum phasing on the parties involved. That is why one feels being pulled by the navel. That is also the reason why this form of travel is highly disorienting. As a final step he had learned to program his new Apparating magical signature into his portkey. His portkey would now be able to also punch through any anti portkey or anti apparition wards.

He was now fully proficient in High Parseltongue. He would soon be able to go through the ritual and open the Sarcophagus. He had been fascinated by his trade books. He never realized the power that a Wizard miner had. He now fully understood how magical trunk worked and how to transfigure internal spaces. The book he had read had fully explained the limiting variable in creating large internal compartment.

One factor had to do with the type of wood selected. The other had to do with the size and shape of the trunk. The more magical energy that could be poured and retained by the material of the trunk, the bigger the internal space would be. They had come up with affinity laws that regulated the amount of energy a trunk could hold. It had explained that crystals could be fused to the walls of the trunk in order to retain even more magical energy.

Typically most wizards only had the power to magically charge pure crystals like diamond, rubies, emeralds, amethyst, or sapphires up to around 40 percent of their full capacity. The strongest wizards could charge them up to 50 percent. The crystals could absorb more, but no one could deliver the power to fully charge it. The wood however could be charged with magical energy up to 100 percent.

Based on the affinity laws he figured if he could manage to fuse enough crystals to the wood and charge the wood panel and the crystals with his own raw magical energy. His calculations showed that he should be able to create a 125,000 cubic meter transfigured living area. This would crate a rectangular prism 50-foot high by 225-foot wide by 300-foot long space.

The dimensions were based on an equilibrium equation that found the perfect balance between the energy contained in the crystals and the wood and the magical space it could provide. You could create a bigger space but that would simply start draining the crystals of their energy. The idea was to maintain the energy in the crystals and wood intact. A permanent non-tampering charm was cast on the construction pieces in order to keep anyone from tampering with the permanent expansion charms. The laws that governed this were very similar to the muggle entropy laws.

Harry figured if he could use an Ironwood such as Lignum Vitae. After looking at his Internet, he had found a description of the wood "this wood which is considered to be one of the densest woods on earth. It is so dense, oily and strong, that it was commonly used as a metal substitute to make block & tackle or other applications where high strength and self-lubrication were required. As might be expected this oily wood can be polished to an extremely high sheen"

Harry figured that he might as well treat himself and decorate his trunk with the most aesthetically pleasing woods he could find. He decided that he would also get large samples of Lancewood, which is, a beautifully patterned wood. There was also Jarrah which was known as Eucalyptus Marginata. The burl colour of this wood is highly variable with reds, browns and burgundy, and the finished pieces often resemble marble in texture and appearance.

Another wood he wanted to get was the Amboyna's; It was also know as (Pterocarpus indicus) this is another of the super exotics and one of the most highly prized and expensive woods in extent. It originates from islands in Indonesia and is usually red in colour. It has a very dense burl figure interspersed with curl and contrasting highlights. This truly is a spectacular wood.

With these thoughts in mind, he got his samples booklets and his furniture catalogue and began planning how and what furniture would go where. He also had to decide what wood paneling or marble flooring he would use in what room.

He figured out how the reception area, his library, his bedrooms, green room, his kitchen, his dining room, his gym, his potions lab, bathrooms, his dungeons, his infirmary, his fire place would all look like. He made a sketch for everyone of them. He had looked at a lot of pictures of different types of manors and castles and from all of these ideas he had made up his entire floor plan.

He had studied the filtration and replenishing charms for air and water. He had practiced the charms to create an open sky ceiling like they have at Hogwarts using imbedded Crystals. He would fuse crystals to the wood on the outside of the trunk panels. This was an excellent way of bringing natural sunlight into any room he wanted. He had then studied all of the possible protection charms and wards that he could put on his trunk.

The trunk would be break proof, impervious to scratches, and the elements. It would be nearly indestructible. The Trunk itself would be bigger than your average commercial trunk. The outside dimensions would be 8" in length by 5 feet in width by 4 feet high.

When reduced it would be the size of a muggle cigarette pack instead of a dice cube. The last thing he needed to do was learn how to cast the Fidelius charm in order to hide the trunk from view. He needed to pick an appropriate location. He would also connect his many trunks with their own flue networks.

He already knew where he was going to put his first trunk during the regular school year. He had picked his favourite spot by the lake. There was no way in hell he was going to live in Gryffindor tower. If nothing else, the last 5 years had thought Harry that the Castle was simply not secure enough for him. With his new arrangement, no one would know where or how he lived. It was perfect, he thought.

He also made sure to study the home construction manual, so that he could properly create trusses and I-beams in order to section off the rooms and hook up water and air ducts. He learned how do pluming the magical way. He would have to find a way to create an electric generator that could work on magical energy.

He learned how to hook up magical pantries and Icebox. He also thought himself how to make a magical stove and work it. If his plans worked out, he would make many of these trunk type Manors. They would certainly turn out to be a lot more than most people's houses.

He promised himself to keep a step-by-step journal of his construction detail. When he was done, he wanted to hire certain Elves that he had in mind. They would work from his journals and reproduce his original designs. When they were complete, he would spread them out to strategic locations.

Although his new apparition method and his trunk plans had kept him fairly busy and exited. His most incredible discovery to date had been a month ago. He had been reading his book, the Magical miner, and remembered his vault trunk, which contained all of his minerals. He had the idea to lay them out, catalogue them and study their properties. He had gotten halfway through his mineral contents and decided to take a break one evening and mess around for some fun.

He put his wand tip on a mineral sample and cast the "Stupefy" spell. Every time he cast the spell on a different mineral the metallic mineral would glow a certain colour as they absorbed his magical energy. He found some of the colours intriguing. He came upon this black brown substance. There were two large blocks of it and one small one. The small cylinder was about six inches long by about half an inch in diameter. There was no identification card for this mineral. It had a simple question mark.

He decided to cast his spell and aimed his wand tip against one of the cylindrical ends. What happened next would stay etched in his mind forever. The spell flowed through the mineral but instead of emitting a strange colour, it returned his spell at the other end of the cylinder but his stupefy spell was amplified what seemed to be over 10 time its original power.

The spell hit his bedroom wall opposite of Dudley's bedroom. A 6-foot diameter circle was created on the wall. A big hole and lots of debris was left of the wall. He was now had an exceptional view of Dudley's bedroom. Where his stupefy spell had hit, the wall had completely disintegrated!

No stupefy spell should have the power to do this, he thought. He needed to do a lot more research. He had to fully understand what this new mineral was and what it could do. Much more important, he had to find out where to get more of this mineral!
