Dark Meets Light

Chapter Thirteen: Helga's Garden

Sorry it took so long to update the damn wouldn't let me for some reason.

Making sure his chest is locked up good and tight he moves into the Hospital Wing right when Madam Pomfrey starts teaching her class. She starts by saying that all ingredients that are used in basic healing potions are basic ones that people can get anywhere. She goes on talking about the different basic potions they are going to learn while in this class.

“Now does anyone have any questions before we begin?” asks Madam Pomfrey.

“I do, do you teach those healing spells as well as the not so basic healing potions?” asks Harry stepping up to the front.

“Why no we don't teach them the not so basic potions because we believe if they wish to learn more about healing to pick a master to teach them everything else. As for the spells, yes, but only the easy ones” answer Madam Pomfrey looking right at Harry.

“I see,” smiles Harry turning to go back to the back of the room.

“Why did you want to know?” asks Madam Pomfrey.

“Well you see I don't really care for healing, so I just wanted some of that information to ask Severus about. My Master Ruby wanted me to learn how to heal with all the spells and healing potions in the world as well as knowing how to make all the potions as well. Yet I didn't let her teach me much about that stuff, I know the basic spells and basic healing potions but that is as far as it goes for me. I shall not take up any of your time from here on out” smiles Harry answering her question.

Madam Pomfrey continues to teach the class about the simple ingredients they need to keep an eye out for when they are just walking around the school grounds. She talks about how they can heal some injuries on their own or some put together so easily when only.

She asks the students questions about certain ingredients that they use while in potions classroom. She wants them to know that most of them can be used for simple or moderate healing potions that are used in hospitals and schools. As well as at homes to heal children how get simple cuts and bruises, she also explains about the creams that can be made and used to heal sores and reduce scars.

As she tells the students in her class to make, sure they keep their eyes out about those herbs that are around the school. If they find any to bring them to her, that it would help her out a big deal as well as students who get hurt. She moves to push them all out of her Hospital Wing so she can go back to work on her paperwork.

“Oh, Harry Potter my I see you for a moment before you leave the Wing to move on to another classroom” speaks Madam Pomfrey moving to be in front of him

“Sure what is it that you want Ma'am” smiles Harry bowing down to her.

“I was wondering why you wanted the information I gave you today during my lesson?” asks Madam Pomfrey.

“”Well you see I don't much care for healing others or myself for that matter, a flaw in me I guess. Anyway, I want to know if Severus has his mastery in Healing, so I won't have to learn it from Ruby. She's a mean teacher and much stricter then you are I rather have someone already know it so I don't have to stay here any longer than necessary” smiles Harry moving to the entrance.

“I can teach you what you need to know” speaks Madam Pomfrey.

“Maybe, if Severus is a Master at Healing I might let you teach me,” says Harry moving out of the room before she can stop him with another question.

Moving skillfully through the crowd, he thinks about what has to be in the near future with the headmaster of this school. He walks into the next classroom early, wanting to view the room much more up close. He wants to know what Arithmancy is and what they are about, knowing that he was taught a different way than the others.

“Well hello there you are early for the next class, may I ask you why Mr. Potter right?” asks the smiling Professor coming from his room.

“Right, I just wanted to scope out the classroom before class actually starts. So how did you know I even came into the room” smiles Harry sitting down in a chair in the back of the room.

“This room has a certain smell to it and anything that does not smell like it I can tell. It is one of the ways a plant I have is letting off an aroma that nothing else can make. Making it easy to smell if anything else comes into this very room” speaks the Professor.

“What is your name sir?” asks Harry looking up at the Professor.

“That you will have to get once the rest of the class to get here and find out that I am” smiles the Professor going back into his room.

Harry smiles laughing as he realizes the Professor is a smart one, he just told him some information about the class without giving his name. This Professor is smarter then he looks to be a teacher at this school, perhaps he is here for a reason.

As Harry waits for the rest of the students to arrive - obliviously first years - he ponders what Madam Pomfrey has told him about the mastery of Healing. If Severus does have his mastery in Healing, that means that Harry won't have to learn about it.

As healing is something he isn't interested in, all he wants to do is pick up a sword and train with it. The students start to come into the room sitting down in the chairs that are provided for the students. Harry watches as the students settle down in the chairs wondering what is going to happen in this classroom.

“Welcome, Student from the Ravenclaw first years and the Slytherins first years to your very first Arithmancy class! I'm your Professor named Wooden cal me Professor Wooden at all times please. I shall teach you all what Arithmancy is all about and how to use it to your benefit in the future” smiles the Professor moving to sit down at the biggest chair in the middle of the classroom.

“Now I understand you all learn how to do math by your parents at a young age. Sickle, Nugget, and Gallons are what we use to pay for the things we want or need to buy. I'm going to teach you how to change currency,” smiles Professor Wooden.

“Axel my master at Arithmancy did just that never taking the time to explain the currency. I do believe he was too preoccupied with his lover Roxas to care about my training” shrugs Harry knowing he should pay attention to what Professor Wooden says.

“Some are that way, especially when they have been around numbers for most of their life. They tend not to care much about math at all,” laughs Professor Wooden at Harry's comment.

He goes on to tell the students that the sickles, nuggets, and gallons that one spends depends on what you He also wants an essay on the types of money they use and how to use the Harry nods his head to Professor Wooden.

Harry takes off to the Great Hall to grab a bit to eat before he moves out to the garden to pick up the flower. Moving to sit down at the Hufflepuff table Severus comes up to him, garbing his arm and pulling him off to the side.

“I was wondering if I could have a meal with you by ourselves before you head off to view more of those classes” speaks Severus in a whisper, not wanting anyone else to hear.

“Sure follow me” smiles Harry moving to leave Black Rose.

Harry moves out of the castle with god like speed, knowing Severus would be right behind him. Moving into the forest he hears Severus call out to him about the place being dangerous and that they shouldn't be out here. Harry just laughs moving deeper into the woods until he hits the center of the forest, stopping he waits for Severus to catch up to him.

“Where are we Harry?” asks Severus moving to stand next to said boy.

“We are at Helga's Garden,” whispers Harry putting his hand down onto the ground.

The trees part way to show a huge green house that had been hidden by the forest itself. The two walk into the green house, looking around one can see every rare plant, flower, tree in the whole world here. Everywhere one person turns on can see that the green house can thrive on their own without anybody here because of the magic around the place.

Harry smiles as Severus moves around the whole place looking at all plants, trees, and flowers. Knowing the heat is a nice temperature for the wild to grow, Harry moves to the back of the green house showing Severus a door, which leads to Merlin's room, which connects to the other rooms.

Harry moves to the one table in the middle of the Green House, sitting down as food appears on the table. Severus moves to sit down next to him wondering what is going on at this point in time.

“So how to do like Helga's Green House so far” speaks Harry taking a bit to eat.

“It is amazing, but where does she sleep,” says Severus looking around the green house.

“She sleeps through the door beside the door that leads to Merlin's rooms. You can't see the door unless you wish to sleep” speaks Harry again.

“And you found this place, what about the other Founder's rooms?” asks Severus taking a bit to eat as well.

“Found them all, I know where each are and know how to get into each and every one, except one door in Merlin's rooms” answers Harry looking at Severus.

TBC. Oh my god, I've gotten this far so far and it feels great. Maybe one day I'll get past chapter sixteen. So long and Review please.
