So I recently posted my third to last chapter of a Harry/Kisuke, but I wanted to get my new story up so…

The Hollow – A Perfect Circle

The ancient halls of Hogwarts Castle were filled with a demented cry promising a tormented death. Harry James Potter-Black-Lupin was wrenched from his slumber as the windows and doors of his dorm room rattled.

"Merlin, Ron can you snore any louder!" Dean mumbled shoving his head under a pillow.

"Wuzat?" Ron asked bleary eyes crossing.

Harry groaned when he realized it wasn't Ron's snoring causing the ruckus.

"Come on Ron! "He said grabbing his wand and tugging the redhead down the stairs.

"About time you two show up. Honestly you must sleep like logs!" Hermione chastised as the made it down from the boy's dormitory.

The trio pushed the portrait of the fat lady open and walked out into the hall. All three were cloaked underneath disillusionment charms.

Running down the familiar hallways they froze as they saw a huge black monster. A large white mask was firmly fixed upon the face. Its mouth was twisted into a horrible façade of a smile.

"Bloody hell!" Ron exclaimed till Hermione whacked him on the back of the head for his foul language.

"Reducto!" Harry bellowed causing a beam of bright light to spring forth from his wand.

The monster snarled and emitted a loud cry that chilled them to the bone. Rounding on the teens it swung its claws at them.

"Protego!" Hermione screamed erecting a barrier to protect them.

"Incarcerus!" Ron said making thick binding wrap around the creature.

"Everto!" Harry breathed out as he watched the monster break through its bindings.

A large blast was issued from its mouth throwing the teens back. Harry watched in horror as Hermione hit the ground a few feet from him. The crumpled form of his best friend Ron lie on the stairs.

Harry grasped for his wand with only to find it broken. Bracing himself for pain Harry watched in morbid fascination as it lumbered towards him.

A lour cry of "Roar, Zabimaru!" filled the air.

A large blade sang through the air as it lengthened into a reticulated serrated edge. Grating of metal on bone could be heard as the sword sliced the masked creature in half making it dissolve into dark nothingness.

Just before losing consciousness Harry could make out the figure of a crimson-haired man with sharp black tattoos adorning his face and neck.

HRHRHRHR

Groaning Harry felt the muscles in his body strain and tense as he tried to move. Harry new he was in the infirmary from the antiseptic like smell of the room.

"It appears you've woken up Mr. potter…" Harry could hear the faint amusement lacing the words of Madame Pomfrey's statement.

"So it would seem," Harry rasped out.

Fussing over the boy she handed him his glasses along with several potions to relieve his pain.

"How're Ron and Hermione?" Harry asked with his mouth full of soup and bread.

"You're friends are fine and escaped with only a few bumps an bruises. You on the other hand are recovering from a slight concussion." The Mediwitch said.

"That's good, but I feel fine so I'll be leaving about now." Harry said slipping out of the room before Poppy could stop him.

Shaking her head at the boy's antics Poppy smiled and cleaned up the bed he had used along with banishing to plates back to the kitchens….

HRHRHRHRHRH

Smiling softly Harry wandered towards his dormitory. Reaching for his wand to check the time Harry winced as he remembered that it had shattered during the battle with the monster.

"Now what the bloody hell am I supposed to do?" Harry asked himself as he changed courses and headed to the Headmaster's office.

"Twizlers" Harry called as he walked towards the gargoyle that guarded the office.

Opening the door after being called inside Harry found himself face to face with the same man who had saved him and his friends form the monster.

"Hello…" He said.

"You're the kid that thought he cold take on the hollow" The man said in amusement.

"Yeah well it was slightly tougher than a basilisk so excuse me if I was in a little over my head." Harry bit back.

Turning away from the black clad man he addressed the Headmaster.

"Professor Dumbledor, It appears that…well… " Harry geld in tears as he tried to say the words that would bring the gravity of the situation to light.

"Yes Harry, I am aware that you wand was destroyed in the fight." Albus said with sympathy.

"Due to this occurrence I have made a call to an acquaintance of mine. He should be arriving any second to help with your predicament."

The fire flared a wicked green as a tall man garbed in dark blue robes stepped out. Dusting soot out of light brown locks the man stood and surveyed to room with icy blue eyes.

"Hello Mr. Potter, Old Coot, and gentleman I don't know, or care to know." Said the man in a smooth yet condescending voice.

"I think I like you" Harry said ginning as the red haired man fumed silently.

"My name is Renji Abarai for your information!"

"As I said Renji, I don't care…" The man drawled.

Smirking Harry turned to the man and shook hands.

"So it seems you are in need of a new wand…" The man said pulling several blocks of wood, metal, and stone from his pockets. Along with them he arranged jars filled with ingredients along the edge of the headmasters desk.

"I would like you to pick one of these blocks from the pile… try and feel the pull to you magical core." The man said as he pushed Harry towards the materials.

Closing his eyes, Harry concentrated briefly on the pile before pulling our a bright silver metal and a dark black wood.

"Both?" The man asked.

Harry nodded and was then told to find two ingredients that were in the jars. Shuffling through the ingredients Harry pulled out a vial of bright green fluid and a semitransparent black stone.

"Interesting… it seems that you have chosen Black Oak, enchanted silver, acid from the venom of a wyvern, and a moonstone." Looking at his professor, he found that Dumbledor had a look of shock and intrigue on his face.

"You have too much material for a simple wand, so now we need to pick a rune for wich you can focus your magic to create the catalyst that your magic will be transferred through."

Harry looked at the scroll in front of him trying to find a rune that called to him. Closing his eyes a symbol jumped forward out of the darkness of his mind.

Grabbing a piece of parchment he quickly drew the rune and handed it to the wizard for inspection.

"By the gods… it appears you have chosen the rune Invictos Nox"

"Which means?" Harry asked.

"Victorious night…" the man finished ominously….

Everto is Latin for destroy…
