A.N.: I own nothing but the plot.

The furniture within the abode of Billy Black began rumbling, as if an earthquake was happening, as Harry unleashed his magic before Sam and Billy. Small objects like plates and cutlery began floating in a circle around the young teen, gaining in speed as he released even more of his magic before a stunned audience, Remus notwithstanding.

"You asked what I have to do with all of this? Well, here's my answer: I'm a wizard, as well as very protective of my godfather. Throw in the fact that I can potentially remove your ability to shift, I think that it would be wise not to antagonise me." Harry smirked.

Sam's eyes grew wide in fear. "What do you mean, remove our ability shift? ... How?"

Remus answered instead. "Your ability to shift appears to innately magical, probably inherited through many generations from a wizard who was an Animagus, or an animal shapeshifter. Since no new blood containing magic joined your tribe, The magic became 'watered-down' and would have been completely lost if it weren't for one of your ancestors tying the presence of magic with any forthcoming threat from outsiders. That is why you guys first begin to transform when there are vampires in the area, as a response to their potential threat to your tribe.

Harry, stop this ridiculous display of power. It's not as if they are any form of threat to us. Plus, it'd be better if you don't spoil any relations with your future father-in-law."

Harry pouted but complied, reigning in his magic and settled the objects in their original places. "Uh, Mr. Black, sorry for that. I just wanted to prove my point." He smiled sheepishly.

"Call me Billy since we're probably going to be quite familiar with one another soon. I'm guessing Jacob imprinted on you." Billy muttered. "With this 'magic' of yours, does it affect our tribe in any way?"

"I do not know, since this is the first time we've been in contact with shifters. It's possible, but I doubt that it'll be anything negative. In fact, it's likely that we'll be able to improve your tribe's connection with magic instead, since Harry and I are bonded to some members of your tribe. Perhaps, in the near future, Jacob and the others will be able to use magic." Remus pondered thoughtfully.

Paul and Jacob were busy doing their patrol, but finding time to tease each other about their imprints.

"Who'd have thought that Paul, the resident hot head, would imprint so quickly, much less on an older guy like Remus? You even imprinted on the same guy as Sam!" Jacob laughed.

"At least I'm imprinting on someone mature! Your imprint is only what, eighteen? Plus he has this aura around him that makes him... intimidating to me. Remus, on the other hand, is just so inviting and understanding and nice and..." Paul blushed mentally as he reminisced about the kisses he had with Sam and Remus.

"You've already kissed him? That's fast... I don't know if I'll get to that stage with Harry, he just seems so... perfect and I'm sure he deserves someone better than me..." Jacob thought morosely.

Paul tried to comfort him as best as he could. "Oh come on, Jake, what are you worrying about? You heard Harry just now, he's already accepted your imprint, which means he does like you. He probably wants to take things slow so that the two of you can truly get to know each other. Plus, you're both still young, or rather you're still young, and he probably doesn't want to rush things."

"Yeah I guess you're right." Jacob tried to push the negative thoughts out of his mind, while he focused on the feeling of love and care he felt from Harry when they hugged.

Paul smiled as Jacob got out of his funk. "I hope the other guys aren't jealous that we managed to find our imprints, especially about yours, since you only shifted a few weeks back and have already found your imprint."

Sam, Remus and Harry left Billy's house and began walking back to Sam's, with Harry giving demonstrations of just what magic was capable of by transfiguring leaves into various objects.

Sam wondered, "if I do gain the ability to use magic, I'll be able to go things like you?"

Remus chuckled at the childlike enthusiasm Sam was displaying with regards to magic. "Not exactly Sam. Harry here is a special case. His command of magic is far beyond what a normal wizard can do. For example, you've noticed that Harry is merely using his hands to transfigure the leaves. If I were to try that, I'll probably not succeed, and even on the off chance that I did, I'll probably end up completely exhausted.

For most wizards, we actually use a wand to pull off such feats since a wand helps to channel the magic smoothly, as well as giving our own magic a boost. For Harry, however, his connection to magic is so strong that a wand is practically useless and may instead explode from the amount of magical energy Harry wields. Throw in the fact that Harry is very sensitive to magic, his abilities with it are simply out of reach for everyone else."

Harry was ignoring the conversation. Instead, he was thinking about just what sort of gift he should get Jacob to show that he really had accepted the imprint, since the shifter was probably very insecure about the whole thing. 'It'd probably have a wolf design of some sorts, as cliché as it may be, to represent him. A carving? Nah, that's too impractical. Plus I still need to think of something to represent myself.'

It was a few minutes before an idea struck him. Stopping in his tracks, and after ensuring that there was no one else other than Remus and Sam around, he cupped his hands together, closed his eyes and concentrated. His pose drew the attention of Remus and Sam, who before that had been in their own little world.

A small ball of light formed in Harry's hands, a misshapen blob that slowly began to take shape. The figure of a wolf could be discerned, but it was a while before what the wizard was creating became clear. A small wooden carving rested in his hands. Remus moved in to take a closer look and gasped at the intricacy of it.

It was a carving of two wolves, one laying on top of the other. The wolf on top had its eyes closed but mouth slightly open, a small part of the tongue poking out. The other wolf had green eyes that were wide open, mouth stretched in a grin of happiness. It was clear just who the wolves represented, becoming clearer has Harry added colour, turning the upper wolf into a russet brown while the other was a deep midnight black.

"I think that should do it," Harry smiled satisfactorily while duplicating the carving and conjuring unbreakable chains, turning the entire thing into a choker. He added some additional charms to the one for Jacob, such as a charm that notified Harry should the wearer be in mortal danger, as well as making it capable of blocking mild curses. Last but not least, he turned it into an emergency portkey that would portkey him to Jacob's side immediately should the shifter ever feel that he was was in desperate need of help.

"Nicely done Harry, I think that will be a perfect gift to convince Jacob that you truly are interested in him." Remus said. Sam nodded in agreement, still amazed at just what magic could accomplish. A wicked idea hit the Alpha and he decided to act on it. "Remus, Harry has a gift for Jacob, don't you have a gift for me?"

"If, and I mean if, I do get a gift for you, I'll also get one for Paul, just to be fair. It won't be anything like what Harry has done, but when the time comes for me to give it to you, I promise that you'll like it" Remus teased.

"And when would that time be?"

"I won't tell you, but it'll be soon."

The trio arrived back at Sam's house to wait for Paul and Jacob. They did not have to wait long as the two arrived barely five minutes after them, having rushed through their patrol as fast as possible so as to get back to their imprints. Harry and Remus had decided that they should let their imprints know about their magic as well, then leaving Sam to tell the rest of the pack at a later date.

Harry decided to drive Jacob back to his house while the others stayed put. Jacob was curious as to just what Harry wanted to do back at the house, but kept quiet for the entire drive back.

A.N.: I know it's been a very long time since my last update, but I've got a very good reason: I've got writer's block, and have pretty much lost all inspiration for this fic. This chapter is basically the rest of the stuff I'd written before writer's block set in, so I decided to upload it just for the sake of it. I'm officially putting this fic up for adoption, and the only request I have is that you preserve all the chapters before this, and let me know before you adopt this fic. I'll still leave the fic up on my account, just for old time's sake. It's been an enjoyable time writing the first part, and I'm sorry for leaving you guys hanging. If I do get the inspiration to write another fic, I'll put it up, but don't count on it. Thanks to all those who reviewed, I'm truly grateful for your support. Cheers!
