Potter Programmer

Part 8

"We... We made it!" I manage to say. "We bloody made it!"

I start laughing at the fact I just escaped Dumbledore and the other two join me.

My laughter takes on a hysterical and mad edge as I realise just how close we were to being caught.

"We barely made it" Hermione muttered. "I'm fine Harry. But had you not spun us around Dumbledore was planning on casting a powerful spell right at me"

I sigh in relief that I'd managed to stop it but stand, my feet slightly unsteady underneath me from the adrenaline.

"That was the most surprising arrival I've seen in a long while Mr Potter" Someone snorted.

I turn to see that scarred man from the call earlier.

"We had Severus Snape and Albus Dumbledore himself on our arse, I don't care if it was surprising" I counter.

Rather than be upset by my rudeness he laughed.

"Finally someone with a bit of fire in him!" I got a clap to the shoulder and a smile. "The name's Johnathan Rukley. I'm Head Auror here, nice to meet you Mr Potter"

"Thanks, nice to meet you too, you've met my mutt of a Godfather Sirius Black and this is the delectable, beautiful Hermione Potter née Granger, my Soulmate"

He held a hand out to her and she took it, he pulled her up and smiled.

"Potter's got himself a beautiful young lady, if you're smarts match your beauty I'll bet you've unlocked the secrets of the universe"

Hermione blushed.

"Smooth old man, but her intelligence is barely noticeable compared to her beauty" I peck her on the cheek and had to catch her as she passed out. "Oops, I think I went a little too far there"

"Maybe, but I doubt she'll be upset with you paying her compliments like that... Now, what'll we do with this vehicle of yours? It's a bit big to come inside" Rukley turned to the Panther.

"I already thought of that one" I order the Panther to shrink and it does so, compressing itself inwards to a toy car size and I pick it up.

"Damn... You doing commissions for those? I could do with a ride like that"

"Gotta make one for Hermione first. Though I should warn you, it connects with your mind permanently. I'll need to give you something to help you with that. If not it might be delayed since I'll have to find a way to keep it seperate from your mind and considering the brain of it that won't be simple"

I start working on various formulas on how I might be able to do that.

I take notes on my Holophone and swat away a mosquito before stopping to laughter.

I look up to see Sirius looking heavily concussed, a broken nose and hogtied by Hermione while she laughed.

"What happened?" I ask.

"What happened? I'll tell you what happened, Black there tried to get your attention by grabbing your shoulder, in less than ten seconds you'd punched him several times then tied him up all while not looking up!" Rukley chuckled.

I blush in embarrassment.

"Oops" I cast a pair of healing spells towards Sirius, his nose snaps I to place and his concussion reverses course.

"Don't apologise Harry! That was one of the best takedowns I've seen in a long time. Sort, swift, painful and efficient" Sirius said, managing to remove his bindings. "I haven't seen the like since I was an Auror and even then only the Senior Aurors could do that! You didn't even register what you were doing!"
