A Mother's Guidance

Harry spent the next year getting to know his family. The fact that they took a lot of outings and made his instruction fun just made the time even more special. Other than learning what he needed to know about being a Lord and all the family businesses, he was also instructed in just how to deal with the Goblins.

As they were talking one night about his studies and interests, Harry mentioned his interest in runes and curse breaking. Charlus and Lily perked up and soon a discussion was being held about how to teach him all they knew. James and Dorea rolled their eyes at this as it seemed to be Charlus and Lily's favorite subject as they had endured hours of talking on the matter.

Harry said "Megan's super smart and Poppy says she's a lot like Mum and Grandmum and told me to never let her go."

James chuckled "Does she go ballistic and make everyone run for cover?"

Harry nodded his head as he saw Lily and Dorea both glaring at James. Harry said "We were planning on studying for our OWLs in runes once school was out so that we could leave Hogwarts but I guess I messed up those plans. I guess I'm going to get yelled at when I get back."

James laughed "Just snog the heck out of her when you first see her. It always works for me."

Charlus muttered "Me too."

It became a full out effort by Charlus and Lily to teach him to the point where Harry could step into the true family business. He found it funny that it was going to be his Mum who designed the warding while James just did the casting but couldn't think of a better way to spend your life than with the one you loved.

One day Harry asked "Mum, if you and dad were so good at warding and stuff, why did you ever go under Dumbledore's protection? I mean, I read your letter but surely you could have done a better job of it."

Lily smiled "There is not a day that we don't regret it and grieve for what it has cost all of us. The only choice we have is to move on and make the best of it now. It helps us to know that you no longer trust that man and won't allow his influence on your life anymore."

In the end, Harry stayed an extra year behind the Veil to learn as much as he could and by then, Charlus guaranteed he could take his Masteries in warding, runes, arithmancy, and curse breaking. Following along that would be the normal masteries in other fields which he was already prepared for with his time spent with his other ancestors.

Lily came to him one night and led him out on the grounds of the manor. She sat in the lotus position and invited him to do the same. As he took his place in front of her, she held out her hands which he took. "I'm going to lead you through a sleep visitation. I know you are anxious to see Megan but I think this will help you both with the separation."

"I think I'd like that. What do I do?"

"You need to sink deep into a meditative trance and then focus on the bond you share. When you feel the connection, follow it until you find her. It's that easy."

Harry snorted. "How come every time you say something is easy, I end up looking like a first year all over again?"

Lily smiled "That's because your Mum is the most brilliant witch ever. I thought you'd learned that already."

Harry snorted "Yeah, she's modest too."

They quieted down and Harry went into his trance. As soon as he sunk into it, he focused on his connection to Megan and began following along beside it. As he walked, it wasn't long before his path disappeared into a mist.

Megan was asleep and as usual, she was dreaming of Harry. Her usual dreams were more like nightmares where she saw Harry but before she could get to him, he was forcefully pulled away from her and no amount of running would allow her to catch up. Sleep offered her no comfort as even her dreams gave no relief from the pain that was her separation from Harry.

The dream she was currently having was nowhere near the norm and she found herself sitting in a white mist. She heard footsteps and as she stood, the mist parted as a cloaked figure walked towards her. As soon as she came into view, the figure came to a dead stop and stood there staring at her.

She asked "Who are you?"

She heard the cloaked figure chuckle before he reached up and pulled the hood from over his head to reveal two glowing emerald eyes that were shining with love towards her. She couldn't believe her eyes and was running at him without even thinking. They met in an embrace and a passionate kiss that seemed to go on forever.

"How? Is this real?"

Harry said "As real as it can be for now."

"Is this all in my head?"

Harry smiled "Yes, No, I really don't know."

"Huh?"

He sat down and pulled her into his lap. "The way Mum explained it to me was I am using our bond to speak to you in your dreams."

"Your Mum? Are you dead?"
