"I can make my own drink." Harry said as he waved his wand and a mug of butterbeer appeared, he took a sip before he gestured her to continue.
"Impressive," The Ancient One commented. "now as a sorceress I am able to harness various energies, the three main ones are personal energies, universal energies and dimensional energies. Each different energy allows me different abilities. For example personal energy from my own life force allows me to do things such as astral projection, telekinesis and telepathy.
It is rather limited in comparison to others. Universal energy, energy from this very dimension, allows other ability's such as creating energy weapons. Finally there is dimensional energy which quite simply allows me to harness power from other dimensions. You have caught my interest because the energy I detect in you is a combination of all three, it seems connected to your body and this dimension yet I feel it originates from another dimension. I can see that you...you come from another dimension, do you not?"
"I don't see how that is any of your business." Harry narrowed his eyes at her.
"I have another title," She said in a calm but powerful voice. "I am the 'Sorcerer Supreme', I protect this dimension and reality from all mystical threats and dangers including those from over dimensions. Are you a danger?"
"Everybody and everything is a danger, off the top of my head I can think of five ways to kill a person with that cup in your hands." Harry replied. "But I don't actively go out and seek to spill my blood with the innocent if that is what you mean. I came to this world by accident."
"Oh, and how did that happen?"
"Experiment gone wrong." Harry said, slightly quicker than he intended to. "I've been on this world for years, I have only hurt people in self defense until recently, I now work with the government."
"Let me guess, they send you out to 'get rid of messes'?" She asked, disapproval in her voice. She would have said more but was interrupted by a growl from Padfoot.
"I am not a weapon that they can target at any and everyone they want," Harry's voice was lower than before, he knew what she was thinking, he didn't need mind reading to know that she thought he allowed himself to be an attack dog that they could use and discard whenever they want. "I don't just kill and when I do kill I do my own research," Harry tapped the side of his head and the Ancient One's eyes widened slightly in realization. "I don't hurt the innocent, and I do not work FOR them, I work with them. I refuse any jobs I don't want and they can't do anything about that."
"Why work for them? Why not say hidden?" She asked.
"My reasons are my own." Harry said in a firm tone.
"I am afraid that I..." The Ancient One was cut off as a black skinned man wearing green robes burst into the room. "Mordo?" The Ancient One asked. "What are you..."
"We have a problem!" The man, apparently called 'Mordo', said quickly. "The armor, it's awake. The armor has awoken!" Mordo nearly shouted out the last part.
"That is impossible!" The Ancient One's face briefly looked worried before she got up and followed Mordo out. Harry and Padfoot looked at each other, after a couple of seconds of silence and an unspoken 'fuck it', they both stood up and followed after Mordo and the Ancient One.
The two followed Mordo and the Ancient One into another room, in the room there was a variety of objects. Some looked perfectly normal, but Harry could tell it was all magical. With this many magical artefacts it was hard not to feel the magic in the air.
When Harry and Padfoot stopped it was to see the Ancient One and Mordo standing in a fighting stance, a holographic looking orange circle in each of their hands. Harry was tempted to ask about it but realized that now was not the time as they had to deal with the elephant in the room which in this case was a suit of armour trying to break out of a glass case.
The suit in question was a beautifully designed grey armour that covered everything from foot to shoulders, connected to the shoulders was a black cloak that went down to the back of the thighs. The arms were black but the shoulders were covered by a piece of armour connecting to the body armour while the forearms and upper hands were covered by grey gauntlets that matched the armour. On the middle of the chest was a small grey symbol, a lighter grey than the rest of the armor, the symbol was of a bird spreading its wings, the symbol was also on each of the arm gauntlets.
The hood from the cloak was up and the grey face mask, which was designed to hide the lower half of the face, floated in place inside the empty hole of the hood. it was rather odd to see the suit standing on it's own since it was not being supported or held up by anything.
The suit was repeatedly striking the glass case, it's eyeless gaze was on Harry as it kept attacking the case.
"It has never reacted like this before." The Ancient One said to herself as she frowned, deep in thought. She glanced back to Harry before she looked at the suit, she sighed before she stood up straight and got rid of the orange circles. "Mordo, stand down." She ordered.
"Are you crazy?!" Mordo blurted out with pure disbelief just as a crack appeared in the glass.
"No more so than usual." She said in an almost Dumbledore like manner, she looked towards Harry. "I know you don't trust me yet but I would advise staying still." She said before she waved her hand and the case opened, Padfoot growled but kept still when Harry placed a hand on his head.
The suit walked out of the case and towards Harry, it stopped in front of him, it was slightly taller than him so it looked down at him. Harry would have looked it in the eye if it had eyes, for now he settled into looking at where the eyes were supposed to be. Harry stared at the suit, and the suit stared back. Several minutes passed but nobody had moved.
Eventually the suit bowed its head, in front of everyone it decreased in size and changed so it was an exact fit for Harry's body. It stood up straight and suddenly took stood like a soldier would stand when waiting for an order.
"Can I just say...the fuck?" Harry said eventually.
"It seems that you have made a new friend." The Ancient One smirked, looking really happy about this for some reason.
"Shut up and tell me what the hell this is." Harry said impatiently as he gestured to the armor.
"if you want an honest answer then I am afraid that I do not know," The Ancient One admitted. "I know it's a suit of armor and that it is magical but that is all. It's never reacted this way before, in the past anyone who attempted to wear it usually found themselves hurt."
"Bullshit, you have to know more than that."
