Harry Potter and the Heart of Gaea (Earth)

[Lady Earth]

Hello, I don't know about you all but I did not like the way HP ended so I am writing this fic. I took me long to write this and I hope you all enjoy the first chapter. Reviews are always welcomed.

Chapter One: The Elementals

“Hurry it up, Hermonie!” Ron shouted as he and Harry ran with the rest of the school towards the Black Lake.

“I’m coming, Ron!” Hermonie shouted.

The professors made sure the students did not get any where too near the water where an enormous circle with a web like that of a dream catcher and many intricate designs had been bewitched for the arrival of their guests. Every student wore a jacket or sweater as said by the Prefects. Why? Well, their incoming guests would arrive at the strike of nine at night. For the past two months Hogwarts had been a buzz since the news that Hogwarts had been chosen to be the sixth school to participate in the I.W.E.T. in other words the International Witchcraft and Elemental Tournament. Held only once every twenty-four years under the Month of Harvest (October).

When the announcement had been made by Dumbledore during supper even Snape had seemed to give a “sincere” smile. Preparations to make Hogwarts look good as new! Decorations, repainting rooms, restoring what was falling a part, modifying guest rooms, cleaning, and leaving no place of the school spotless. At the beginning everyone complained but once promised by Dumbledore that all homework would be postponed due to the tournament, everyone’s co-operative side showed up!

“So, how many other schools are coming?” Ron asked.

“”Five!” Hermonie replied.

“The Five Elemental Schools,” Harry added.

“Oh I just can’t wait to see her!” a first year girl shouted catching their attention. “I saw her during summer vacations down at Diagon Alley. She was with a really jot looking guy! And she looked so beautiful!! Of course I had no chance to talk with her because she seemed in a hurry.”

A redheaded boy spoke next, “I’ve heard she’s really powerful. She’s won many competitions.”

“But her music!” a Slythering girl named Sarah shouted excitedly. “Her music is the greatest!! My Papa has taken me to all of her concerts.”

“Who do they keep talking about?!” Harry whispered.

“Are you really that naïve, Potter?” Malfoy spoke sarcastically from behind him. “They’re talking about none other than Starlight Fanell!!”

“Shut it, Malfoy!” Ron warned.

“Make me!”

Just as Ron was about to hit Malfoy a black cat came out of nowhere jumping in front of Draco and scratched his face. Frightened by the animal he ran away screaming like a girl; Crabbe and Goyle right behind him. Meanwhile, the cat sat next to Rom and meowed. For someone who doesn’t like cats Ron surprised the heck out of Harry and Hermonie when he picked the cat up in his arms.

“Where did you come from?”

“Prrreow!”

“Look,” Hermonie pointed. “in its forehead.”

Harry got closer, A silver moon?”

“It belongs to an Elemental.”

“How you know, Hermonie?”

“I read in a book that Elementals have guardian animals with the all the time. One family in particular holds black cats as their but for the life of me I can’t remember what family. Bu t it sure belongs to an Elemental.”

“How so? They’re not here yet,” Rom commented.

The cat made a purring sound before surprising them all by sprinting in to the air. Everyone followed the silvery glow of the cat’s symbol to watch it calmly land perfectly on its four legs. After stretching for a few seconds it leaped into Dumbledore’s shoulder.

“Ah, Reyna, you’re here! Good,” Dumbledore greeted the animal.

“Prrrrwew!” the cat responded

McGonagall stepped closer, “as always charmed to see you, Reyna!”

Reyna sprinted in to McGonagall’s open arms, “Meow, meow!”

“Me two!”

“I assume she did not wish to come?” Dumbledore commented.

“Meow.”

“However…”

“Meow reow prreow!”

“Oh yes, William can be quite convincing when needed.”

Minerva placed Reyna on the ground, “We’ll get the students ready.”

“Trrr.”

Minerva and Albus exchanged a look. Then Dumbledore addressed the students with a strong mighty voice using his wand as an amplifier. Making even the noisiest of people shut upon the sound of his voice like a small child.
“All students chosen to be guides for our guests please come forward!”

Harry and Hermonie turned to Ron who was arranging the colorful armband he had been given two weeks ago. After carefully placing it on his left arm he beamed at them with a smile before running to the front as Dumbledore had ordered.

“I hope Ron can do a good job!” Hermonie whispered to Harry.

“So do I!”

Three more students joined Ron the only sixth year student, representing Gryffindor. A third year Ravenclaw boy, a fourth year Slythering girl, and a fifth year Huphulpuff girl, ran each with an armband different to the other. Dumbledore looked at them and then back at the rest of the students.

“There seems to be one missing!”

“Here I am, Dumbledore!” a second year Ravenclaw boy exclaimed running and almost crashing into McGonagall. “Sorry, Professor!”

“It’s alright, Pedmon, now go join the others.”

“All keep quiet now!”

No sooner had many mouths stopped their ranting when the clock struck nine. Reyna gave a loud meow before jumping into the air, performing a summersault that made her land at the center of the circle. She directed her forehead towards the sky and her silvery moon startled everyone as it gave out a bright light beam into the heavens as a sign. Suddenly fire appeared out of nowhere enveloping the cat within its flames.

Soon the figures of people began to form and as the flames disappeared, the students from Hogwarts witnessed many young people and one adult dressed in long red mixed with yellows and orange gowns and capes moved towards one of the ropes anchored in the lake shore. In step they fell with their Headmaster.

“Sarah!” Dumbledore called and the fourth year Slythering.

“Yes Dumbledore?”

“Leonard,” Dumbledore spoke to the other head master. “This will be your guide.”

“Good,” was the only reply given.

“Sarah, go stand next to the students and keep quiet.”

As Sarah ran and stood next to a boy younger than her a strong gust of wind began to form a dark gray tornado at the center of the circle. No one could take their eyes from the immense tunnel forming. Just as with the first group the tempest vanished and now another group but this time in silvery flowing gowns and capes appeared and immediately directed themselves towards Dumbledore. They stood to his left.

“Dumbledore,” the female Headmaster greeted.

“Sasha, honor.”

“May we have our guide?”

“Of course. Pedmon!”

“Yes, Sir,” Pedmon replied moving next to the students.

Now water from the lake made it way to the center and went up and down up and own, spiting people into a line until finally another set of student with royal blue gowns and capes appeared. With a sort of liquidity to their walk they joined the first group on Dumbledore’s right.

“Cetor!”

The third year Ravenclaw stepped in and moved to the third group.

“Our guide?” the male Head Master asked.

“Yes, he-’’

Before he could finish an enormous hunk or rock from the Forbidden Forest came rolling and all the students and head masters had to dodge the thing or get crushed to death. Gladly everyone did and as they picked themselves up the rock split in half allowing the fourth group out. They wore dark brown gowns with capes. And as two of the students helped their oversized Head Master out of the rock the rest joined the second group on Dumbledore’s left. Finally free from the rock the head master and two students united with the rest of their group. By that time the Huphulpuff girl named Elsa had already joined them.

Now the only one left was Ron and as he stood there waiting he went over the Schools that had arrived. “So far, the Fire, Water, wind, and Earth schools are here. That means I get the shorter group. The-’’

A blinding white light formed at the center of the circle and as Ron used his hand to cover some of the light he could see that the four head master of the different schools where using their wands and creating the beam! Soon snow like flakes began to fall and figures emerge d from them. Only nine people dressed in florescent white gowns and capes that danced with the sift breeze came down the ropes and stood in front of Dumbledore.

The Head Master stepped in, “Tis good to see you after so long, Dumbledore!”

“Pleasure seeing you again, William!”

They shook hands and where soon joined by the other Head Masters and the Professors of Hogwarts. Ron just stood there waiting to be called. Yet as the minutes passed he began to feel anxious about no one remembering him.

“Is our guide ready?” William asked.

“Ron!” Dumbledore called.

Immediately he jumped into action. But before he could join the group of students someone or something grabbed him the neck and spun him around. He came face to face with the Head Master of the fifth group.

“You are not going to wait for my wife and daughter?”

“Excuse me?” Ron asked dumbfounded.

William let go of him, “My wife and daughter have yet to arrive. Its costmary of a gentleman to wait for ladies, is it not?”

“Yes sir.”

“Then stay still. They are soon to come.”

The words had barely left his mouth when a portal opened above the circle and through it a two woman dressed in white with wings longer than any bird any of them had seen slowly descended and gently allowed their wings to a line with each others.

Meanwhile in the crowed Harry hissed in pain as his scar began to pain him.

“Harry, are you alright?” a concerned Hermonie asked.

“Not really.”

“Is it your scar?”

A nod, “Yes.”

“When did it start?”

“When those two women appeared.”

“That’s not good.”

“Indeed.”

William turned to Ron, “Now my boy, go on.”

“Yes Sir!”

Still at the center of the circle the two angels like women watched the scene before them. The young woman with dark brown hair and caramel almost gold tips, directed her gaze to the beautiful redhead besides her.

“This is it?”

“Yes, Dear,” the woman replied.

“What was the reason I had to come yet again?”

“You are past of the Etha school. Tis right for you to come and participate.”

A deep sigh, “As you wish.”

“Should we go and join your father, then?”

A nod, “Lead the way, mother.”

As her mother passed her and she in turn followed her lead, the young woman began to feel uneasy about being in this place. She wished she’d been able to stay back at the Academy but no such luck. She gazed into the heavens. Sister Moon stared back at her with a small smile, as if saying ‘Don’t duel in it. Deal with it!’

*Even you Sister Moon mock me?! I that serve you and all of nature? I suppose there is more to this then. That you know something I know not of.*

Her mother in turn was having a nice little chat with her husband; a telepathic chat that is. “She can sense we are keeping something from her.”

“Laura, it is what the Gods want,” was William replied as he spoke with McGonagall.

“Still, I wished…”

“So do me my love.”

Their talk was cut by Minerva’s joyful welcome as she saw Laura and her daughter coming close. “Laura!”

“Minerva!”

Both women embraced each other.

“How are you, Laura?”

“Fine. And you?”

“Not bad,” McGonagall replied turning her gaze on the young woman behind Laura.

“Evening Godmother.”

“My God, you’ve grown so much! Come here; let me hug you, Starlight.”
Doing as asked Starlight immediately embraced her. Not long Dumbledore appeared and smiled at her.

“Do I not deserve one?”

“Of course you do!”

“Your father said you weren’t coming.”

“Yet here I am!”

“Meow!”

“Reyna!” Starlight exclaimed looking down. She bent to pick the cat up but just as her fingers touched the animal’s fur it ran away. “Reyna, come back here!”

William and Laura watched their daughter run after the cat. They exchanged a look with Dumbledore and McGonagall; who in turn nodded. Harry and Hermonie talked with one of the Fire students when the black cat they had seen before jumped into Harry’s arms.

“Hey Reyna!” the young Fire student spoke.

But before any of them had a chance to speak Harry’s and Starlight’s eyes met and a strong breeze appeared out of nowhere as if predicting something coming.

Chapter Two: The Tournament

"Hey Star,” a silver haired young man said as Harry watched Starlight. “Think you gonna eat that pumpkin pie of yours?”

Starlight looked at the young man and laughed, “Silly Elius, you’re going to get sick!”

“I know! But then again not everyone that gets stomachache has you to heal them. So just pass the pumpkin pie!”

Ron followed Harry’s gaze and shook his head. He had to admit Starlight Fanell is a gorgeous looking girl. She had caught his eye the moment Ron had seen her come through that portal in the sky and descend to the circle in the lake. But he also knew there was something more to her. In the other hand, Harry could not keep his eyes away from Starlight. She smiled as if it where the last time she would have the chance to do so. Yet her smiles and laughter touched his heart in a way no one had-not even Cho!

“Forget her, Harry,” Hermonie spoke.

“Eh? What, did you say?” Harry said trying to break off from the spell Starlight had cast over him.

“I said forget her. She is far way of your league.”

“I was you I’d do as Hermonie says,” Neville suddenly spoke.

Starlight’s laughter caught his attention. She was wiping pumpkin from Elius’ face while he tried to kiss he cheek. She slapped him in the arm and laughed some more. Elius picked up some mash potato and tried placing it on her nose. She dodged it and threw the napkin to his face.

“That Elius and Star really do like each other!” an Etha Elemental sitting next to Hermonie exclaimed to another student sitting at the Ravenclaw table.

“Yeah! I can see that,” the young girl replied.

“Ouch, look whose coming!”

William Fanell Headmaster of the Etha Elemental Academy made his way toward the Gryffindor table where his daughter and Elius sat. Both did not notice when he stood right behind them so he did what he did best and used his wolf head cane. He put it between the two people and it created a loud howl making everyone turn.

“The chosen ones, my dearest,” William gently said.

Starlight grinned and nodded. “Alright, father.” She stood and followed him to the table were all the professors sat. Before she turned back and faced the students. She winked at Dumbledore. Harry, Ron, and Hermonie just as the rest where trying to guess as to what was going on.

William and Starlight faced each other. William bowed and Starlight in turn curtsied back. William then stretched his hand to her and smiling she placed her hand in his. He gently kissed it and returned to his seat but not before giving her his silver wolf headed cane.

While William sat Dumbledore stood and addressed the students. “All keep quiet and listen well for soon six will be chosen and the tournament will begin!”

All the candles vanished leaving the great hall in darkness. Suddenly from the ceiling six spheres floated towards the young woman all knew as Starlight. Harry hissed as his scar began to trove with pain again. As for Starlight she took the floating spheres in her hands and placed the cane in front of her. Then she joggled with the spheres, “All in all life is created by the power of five. Five elements that live in harmony within the arms of Mother Earth, five who are her children and go by these names; Fire…”

“WE ARE ONE!” the Fire students shouted and the sphere corresponding to their color levitated above every student before returning to Starlight.

“Water…”

“WE ARE ONE!” the Water students replied, their sphere doing as the one before.

“Wind…”

“WE ARE ONE!”

“Earth…”

“WE ARE ONE!”

“Etha…”

“WE ARE ONE!”

“Yet there is a sixth child that protects the five, completing the circle of life. This sixth child holds powers-gifts from the fives. Now when I call thy name sixth child all united as one must shout We are one, for it is truth and not a lie…”

Starlight kept her eyes on everyone and just for a split second she caught Harry’s gaze and gave him a smile. “Here with us is Witchcraft!!!”

Taking their cue from the others the Hogwarts students shouted WE ARE ONE. After that Starlight fell to the ground as fire began to envelope her body. Now water entwined with fire, then wind and earth joined then. Suddenly and immense explosion occurred and Starlight reappeared in a long satin dress with gold, her long wings stretched out as she floated above the ground with a crystal gold rimmed cup in her opened hands. A pool of water had formed under her and now she stood above it not in it but on top.

Laura Fanell took her queue and situated herself next to her daughter. “This which my child holds is one of the items once used by the greatest priestess to have protected Gaea! This is the Amoret’s Crystal Imperium Cup! For the next two weeks student’s ages from 15-17 who wish to take part in the competition must place their name within this cup. Two of each school’s students will be chosen.”

“Ah, but do we warned…” William spoke moving next to his wife, “My daughter is the keeper of the cup and will watch who tries to place their name in it.”

Harry took another look at the floating girl she had her eyes on him. She winked and turned to her father.

“My dearest, do you wish to enter the Tournament?”

“Yes.”

Laura took a slip of paper and wrote her name in it. She folded it into tiny square and threw it into the cup. Immediately gentle singing emanated from the cup. Followed by two doves flying around the room, then vanishing in a flash of diferent colors.

“Who’s next?” Laura Fanell asks looking around the room.

“I’ll do it!” the silvered haired man that had been sitting next to Starlight exclaimed.

“Yeah, go Elius!”

The young man walked up the stairs with pride shown, no fear. And at the moment he threw the paper into the cup, Harry wished he had the courage needed but since what happened last time…well…


Starlight allowed her eyes to move all over the Great Hall. Something was odd around here. She could feel an entety moving about the castle. She could not locate its position but she could sense it. She knew she should tell her parents about it but something else told her to keep quiet.

[Lady Earth]

It soundd like that year but it is actually the sixth year, but I will make that clear later on. It does have a similarity to globet of fire but it will be completely different. A lot of twists and turns.

[illuma]

I don't plan on reading this but from what i have read already i am liking it. If i liked Harry Potter at all i might have enjoyed this, but sadly i think HP sucks. Good job though if you didn't have connected this to HP i would have liked it.
