Chapter 51 - Harry's Plan

Inside an empty classroom the following day after the opening feast, three figures were inside. Between them as they formed a triangle were seven orange orbs with varying red stars inside. Next to the seven orbs, an empty journal sat open with a quill and ink jar.

"Now which one of you wants to write the details? The Weasleys and Hermione will know my handwriting even if it changed." Harry said as he looked between Daphne and Katie.

Truthfully he would have just gone with a self writing quill or spell, but it wouldn't work. Daphne was the one to point out that if he decided to make the 'Legend of the Dragon Balls' four hundred years old. Then neither the spell or self writing quill were around then which would be suspicious.

While the entire prank plan is suspicious, Harry doubts that any of the Weasleys will pay much attention to it. Well the twins would and maybe Percy, but Ron and Ginny. Once they read 'Grants any wish' then they would try everything to hunt down all seven. It was when they get Hermione involved on purpose or accident it might come to light.

Since that would ruin his fun watching the squad of red heads running around the castle looking for the orbs. They definitely can't have it ruin before it begins.

"I will do it." Katie bounced in her seat like a small child.

"Um, Katie you will need to fill in more than just the legend." Daphne pointed out. "Will you be able to do it between school work and quidditch practice?"

"I can do it at night since I don't require as much sleep." Katie puffed out her chest.

"So you are giving up time to sleep with Harry? Just think every morning for a few hours with just him to yourself. His loving gaze and touch as he thrusts into you with long thick stokes." Daphne whispered the devilish words making Katie tremble at the thought. "You want that don't you."

A small whisper was heard moments later. "Yes, I want that."

"Great then I will write it." Daphne clapped her hands.

'She should have just said she would do it. Why go through the effort of offering Katie something else.' Harry thought before handing her the journal.

"Once it's done, give it back and I will put it in the common room for Ron. I might charm it so only he can see it until he picks it up." Harry said, rubbing his chin. "Maybe add something about only a 'chosen one' can find the journal containing hints and the legend."

"You sure are asking for a lot." Daphne attempted to pout but looked adorable.

"Only because I know you will do an excellent job." Harry gave her a quick peck on the cheek.

"Unfair," Daphne grumbled as she blushed slightly.

Katie on the other hand looked ready to devour Harry.

"Back again Harry?"

Dumbledore asked as he leaned on the railing inside his office from the second floor. Since it was one of his days with a small share of paperwork, he could relax a bit.

"Yeah," Harry sighed as he read a slightly thick tome on automata. "It is about the only place I can research without Hermione breathing down my neck. For some reason she thinks I am suddenly going to drop dead or turn myself into a cyborg."

Chuckling at his worries, Dumbledore just nodded. "Yeah, Miss Granger seemed dead set on finding a 'cure' for you. She even requested the Healer course from Madam Pomfrey."

"I like living so I will have to decline on a 'cure'."

"Yes, but one shouldn't fear death Harry."

"I don't, but that doesn't mean one should fear living long either."

"I suppose so as death comes to everyone."

"It does, but mine just won't stay permanent." Harry sighed a bit. "Now onto a better topic, I got a prank for the Weasleys and I wonder if you want to join."

"Oh do tell."

Quickly explaining the prank and plan, Dumbledore agreed as he found it funny. So handing over the five star dragon ball. Dumbledore summoned a simple chain and wore it as a necklace.

"Do you have a plan on where you're going to place the others yet?"

"Since the goal is to have them running throughout the castle all year. I'm planning on putting them in secret or well hidden places such as knight armor or out of the way classroom." Harry answered. "I will however be hanging onto some so they can't gather them all at once by some weird luck."

Nodding and stroking his beard Dumbledore agreed as he found it entertaining. To him it was a harmless prank and a scavenging hunt.

"On a different note, have the goblins contacted you about the Weasleys yet."

"Yeah, surprisingly with the twins buying their own ingredients and winning the raffle. They just barely managed to go to Egypt and pay off their debts. Ron still has his broken wand though."

"That good," Dumbledore nodded.

"Meh, it was more pocket change that they managed to take from me so I wasn't all that worried. After a few more pranks and such I will probably let them go as what they did is in the past or will it be the future?"

"Whatever makes you satisfied."

"I will be but I get the feeling Daphne and Fleur mothers on the other hand won't be. So I will just allow them to plan and won't stop them." Harry shrugged.

"Hell has no fury like a mother's wrath." Dumbledore sagely said.

"Indeed." Harry nodded before changing topics. "So instead of Dementors we have Auror walking the place."

"Yes and from Amelia, I was given a list of who was coming. Miss Tonks seems to be coming next week and agreed to be your bodyguard once more."

A smile broke out as it had been a while since he saw her.

"I can't wait."
