Disclaimer, I am returning HP and his world to JK Rowling, thanks for the
loan, I promise I didn't damage them too much!!
Chapter 32 The End
"Harry," Dumbledore called him on the last morning after breakfast. "You will be traveling after the other students have left, please pack your things and leave them in your common room, I suggest you give Hedwig to Ron or leave him here with Hagrid, which ever you prefer."
"Yes Sir," Harry said.
"Also I have something of yours in my office; you may collect it before you go." Dumbledore added with a smile.
"Sir?" Harry asked.
"Your Green Flame Torch! I thought you would have asked what happened to it before now," Dumbledore said.
"What! You mean the potion actually worked? Does the torch work? Why didn't you tell me before?" Harry said excitedly.
"You were not ready to know before," Dumbledore answered simply.
"Will it work?" Harry asked.
"I believe it will work, but perhaps not in the way you imagine," Dumbledore replied. "It is not a weapon Harry, it is a learning device. If used properly it can help you to learn Elemental magic."
"What's that?" Harry asked.
"Elemental magic is about guiding the elements, understanding their power, and bringing them to your aid when you need them." Dumbledore explained.
"You mean like making it rain and stuff?" Harry asked.
Dumbledore chuckled, "It is a little more complex than that Harry, You can learn to understand when it will rain therefore you will have an advantage, but more basic than that, you can channel the energy contained in the world around you."
It all sounded very complicated to Harry, but maybe it explained some things about his strange dreams.
"Is that why I dream about Volcanoes?" Harry asked.
"A Volcano is one of nature's most powerful forces," Dumbledore told him. "Think of what you could do if you could predict when a Volcano would erupt!"
Harry thought about his dream, Voldemort being consumed by volcanic lava, maybe if he could really learn Elemental magic, but the idea was too amazing to contemplate, he might actually have found a way to kill Voldemort, without having to become a murderer.
Harry's knees began to shake, as the feeling spread though him, he recognized it as the powerful sense of hope! Harry wasn't really sure why he suddenly wanted to cry but he knew he did not want to cry in front of Dumbledore so he excused himself and raced back to the common room to say goodbye to his friends for the summer.

Author's note, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! To everyone who has read and reviewed this story. Please don't curse me!!! I know many of you wanted me to continue on to the final confrontation between Harry and Voldemort, but I think that deserves a whole story of its own! I will write about Harry's seventh year but I am taking a break for the moment, before you all get bored!
A lot of my reviews were very helpful and I thank you for them, I did indeed find a copy of The Elements of Style, by Strunk and White, so I want to spend some time reading it and reviewing my less than perfect grammar.

I used Latin translations to make up most of the spells that were not used in JK Rowlings stories. The new creatures were just nonsense words I made up.
Vitrum caesaries --- blue hair
Oberro --- to wander
/ Inerrans--- not wandering
Anguicomus ---- snaky hair
Praenubilus --- very cloudy dark
Erubesco furfur --- glow red skin
Tinnulus --- ringing bells
Confuto --- silence
Reticeo --- to keep silent
Adligo ---- to bind
Circumtono --- to thunder around
Fulmen --- a thunderbolt
Sternumentum ---- sneeze
/ Quiscere --- to stop
Dirimo --- to divide
Consopio --- to lull to sleep
Dormito ---- to begin to sleep
/ Excio --- to awaken
Excaeco ----- to blind
/ Aspectus --- to restore vision
To Ash knight, sorry you didn't like Harry's animagus form, I wanted to resist the temptation to make him too powerful or too extraordinary. I don't know that the patornus form has that much to do with the animagus form; I think that is more of a choice, like their favourite animal. I think that their animagus forms are taken from their human characteristics, McGonagall is smart and self-reliant like a cat, James was a stag, a powerful animal that is often hunted, Sirius was a dog, loyal to his friends, and Wormtail was a rat, basically because he's a rat. I chose Harry to be an Eagle because they obviously fly well and they hunt small creatures from great heights, much like Harry chases the snitch.
Wind Whisperer, Harry was afraid to believe that his magic would come back, that's why he was surprised. One of the things he was studying was how to cast spells like Dumbledore, without having to say them out loud. That's how he was able to counter the silencing spell and perform the Body bind.
