Chapter 105- a plan and a kiss

Harry's POV

After obliviating Sirius and moving him near the Gryffindor tower, Harry went back to his room, getting ready to sleep as he waited for the faculty to gather the entire school's populace in the Grand Hall.

And while changing his clothes shouldn't take much time, as he used the time to think about the confirmation that Sirius' story hasn't changed, which meant he has to plan a way to get the full story about what happened the night of Halloween 1981, as his theory about this universe difference except him having a twin brother was having a failed Fidelius being casted in the house with Sirius as the secret keeper, but with Pettigrew being the secret keeper, the Potters being alive, and yet Sirius in jail it meant he was wrong and confused as hell about the reason the plot of Sirius' life being the same as it is right now.

All of this meant one thing, he was really close to get caught by Professor Snape naked as he opened the door.

"Mr. Peverel," he said with his right eyebrow up, looking at his student who was just in the middle putting his pajama shirt on, luckily, after putting his pajama pants already. "We need all the students to gather around in the Grand Hall, Sirius Black has managed to penetrate the castle."

"Yes Professor, I would go there right now" Harry said, ignoring the questioning look the potion professor had on his face.

The professor, who saw the student wasn't going to answer his unasked question, sighed, before asking "and what, if I may be asking, were you doing up at this hour?"

"Showering after a bad dream." Harry gave an excuse as he quickly used a little bit of magic to transfigure water from Hydrogen and Oxygen in the air to make his head look moist.

While usually, this kind of lie won't work on the professor, seeing as he wasn't only a potion master, making his eye for those kind of details great, but he was also a spy, making his ability to spot lies something that he took great pride in.

Yet, Harry had help convincing the professor, the Fidelius he casted on his wandless magic, while usually made every display of wandless magic seem like wand magic, when dealing with subtle magic, like moisturizing his hair, it just made Professor Snape convinced he just didn't notice it being there.

In fact, thanks to the fidelius Charm, as long as he didn't have a wand in hand, people who are unaware of magic won't be able to conceive him doing magic even if they see him, thinking it is a trick or ignoring it completely, thus, making him able casting charm in a street full of unaware muggles without braking the law.

All of it didn't matter right now, as the most important thing was Snape believing his lie about taking a shower, even if he had other theories why, therefore placing him far enough from Sirius to not suspect him.

"I see, well, chop chop, go to the Great Hall."

The professor said as he went to wake the other students.

Harry took off twenty seconds later with all the potions he need needs for the night, about to commence his plan for getting the whole story about the night that made him who he is.

Luna's POV

Being woke up by Professor Snape isn't a fan experience, being woke up by Professor Snape in the middle of the night only to be told that a murderer has breached the castle walls and that they needed to go as quickly as possible to Grand Hall? Even less so.

Putting her blanket around her, as she knew the castle at that time of night would be freezing, she walked toward the Grand Hall, catching up to her friend extremely quick, as it seemed he was drowning in his own thoughts.

"Galleon for your thoughts?" The look on the boy's face made her laugh.

"A whole galleon? most people would only give a Knut."

"Well, I might just really want to know... or maybe I only have galleons in me and want change." The laughter that came from Harry's mouth seemed to brighten up the dark castle.

"Let this time be a freebie." He said as magic came out of him, covering both of them in a notice me not charm and a silencing one, making her know it is important.

"This is another one of the secrets I need you to keep." He said with a trusting voice, making her happier as she could see how much he trusted her.

"Sirius black is innocent, he didn't kill nor betray anyone."

"What?!"

"Yes, I'm not sure about everything that happened, but I do know this."

"How? And why keep it a secret?"

"Because of two reasons. 1) I didn't get this knowledge in a legal way. And 2) I'm not entirely sure who is in on this, and what they would do to keep their involvement secret."

"So what should we do? We can't let an innocent man go back to Azkaban or worse, kissed by a dementor!"

"and only after we have the full story can we form a plan to make everyone see he is innocent, and I know who can tell us the full story."

By the time Harry and Luna got to the Grand Hall they were the last Slytherin there and had to sleep the closest to the Ravenclaws, not that it made any different to them.

Seeing everybody talking, excited and scared, Luna and Harry each took a book and started reading while waiting for the students to calm dawn and for most of the teachers to leave to search for Sirius Black.

Yet, as much as she tried, the words on the page in the book didn't seem to register in her mind, as her eyes wondered to her right side, looking at Harry, laying next to her with his sharp green eyes in a fifth year's level book on defense against the dark arts, a subject he only started reading ahead of third year this morning, when she did something impulsive, she kissed his cheek.

You see, while Luna might seem for the outside observer impulsive, nothing could be farther then the truth.

In fact, almost every action of hers is calculated, which is why such unexpected action managed to surprise not only Harry, but Luna as well.

Feeling hit rush to her chicks, even though she just wanted to bury herself knowing that with her light-colored skin her entire body is probably red, she tried showing dignity and explain rationally why she did that.

"I-It is just to show my appreciation for you trying to do the right thing and to thank you for sharing this knowledge with me." Looking back to her magizoology book, she could hear him chuckle which made the will to bury herself grow as she forced her skin to it's unusual color with a quick spell she heard from Ginny's mother when they were still friends, yet it only took her hearing "Well, in that case..." and a pack on her cheek, for the redness to rush back at full force. "This is to thank you for believing me about Sirius and for agreeing to help."

After that he returned to reading his book while she couldn't help but smile thinking she might need to do a few more impulsive things.

Peter's POV

Peter knew he was screwed, all of his former best friends were in school with him, one of which broke from prison and came to this school just to catch him.

Yet there was nothing he could do, he couldn't show he is alive, not with everyone thinking he is dead for the last twelve years, he couldn't run away, as he tried and the Orange cat the pet, the friend of Ron- the boy he lived on, owned kept trying to catch him as a snack, and he couldn't stay, as apparently Sirius managed to come into the school from an unmonitored way and almost succeeded in catching him.

No, he had to escape, and he needed to do so in a way everyone would think 'Scabbers' is dead, he needed to fake his own death.

Yet as he planned his 'second death' he smelled unfamiliar, yet familiar smell, one that reminded him of Marcus yet was different, and intertwined with it was a hint of a smell of someone who smelled a lot like his school's crush- Pandora Bletchley.

Looking where that smell seemed to come from with unknown unwillingness that for some reason appeared, he managed to barley see red light coming his way.

Harry's POV

As he hit Pettigrew with a stunning curse Harry quickly levitated all the hairs of the rat gently before summoning them,, dragging the rat with, after all only things which aren't alive can be levitated or summoned, dead cells like hair is one of the things which are best used, most people would think it is only people or animals who can't be summoned, making Harry think about summoning hearts for quick fights, yet after some research and experimentations, he figured all living beings- including cells are unsummonable, something Voldemort probably also figured out, hence why he has no body hair, something Harry plans to avoided by enchanting his first blacksmithing project - a pinkie ring, with creating a dome on the wearer of unsummoning enchantment.

Anyway, after making sure no one looked in their direction and that the notice me not charm is still working he fed the rat the Draught of Living Death, before returning to his sleeping place where Luna kept a notice me not charm on, before removing both his own notice me not charm and an invisibility Charm.

"Got him?" A quick nod is all she needed before saying good night and turning over.

Harry also went to sleep as it was a long day, and tomorrow might be longer.
