"Harry!!!" Melinda yelled out, her voice echoed slightly in the manor

BOOOOM!!

In nearby room an explosion happened.

BAM!

The doors slammed open as smoke came out of the room along with a coughing Harry

"WHAT!!" He angrily yelled out "For God's Sake! Don't call for me when I am WORKING!!"

Melinda sighed as she rubbed the bridge of her nose. "Little Astoria fainted. She had another episode. Didn't you say you were going to look into that!"

Harry blinked "Huh, right." He pulled out a notebook. Hope had one as well, they are linked, it was his schedule. The one he will follow unless he has some random idea for an experiment.

"Well I was planning on looking at her the day after tomorrow"

Melina deadpanned "Two days before you all go to Hogwarts?"

"Well yeah. Astoria is coming to Hogwarts with us as my 'apprentice', and hope as my 'assistant'. They won't be able to refuse me. I can start researching the 'Blood Malediction' at Hogwarts. I checked the Black Library. Surprisingly there was little mention of it. I know how its cast, but there are no records of it being removed. I hope to find something in the Restricted Section, before I start any research on my own. That or when the next episode was going to be.

And you underestimate me Melinda. I already scanned Astoria the moment I brought her on my boat. The problem is the results I received were inconclusive. I was waiting for her to have another episode so I can get a more detailed scan." Harry smiled as he raised his hand, both he and Melinda started to float. She looked beneath her feet as a floating board was beneath her

She looked at Harry and smiled "Impressive, you are getting more and more subtle. I didn't notice a thing."

Harry just nodded as both of them 'floated' or 'flew' to the room where Astoria was.

When he entered Astoria was laying on the bed, she was pale and breathing heavily.

Hope was there doing some preparations for Harry, while Daphne and Ophelia were by the sides of the bed.

"Harry" Ophelia called out, released that Harry was here. As a member of the Order of Healers. Harry was her best shot at healing Astoria.

"I got it, I was waiting for this moment. I had already scanned her before, but the best time to scan her is during or right after an episode."

Harry pulled out his staff, his wands. His original wand and the Elder Wand. He needed maximum precision for this. He pushed his Occlumency and Magecraft mental magic to the limit as he started to run diagnostic spells.

Magic circles appeared around Astoria, each slowly turning. Like an interconnected mechanical machine. The cogs or in this case magic circles were slowly spinning, almost like they were interacting with each other. 

The Greengrass's were on the edge of her seat.

"Hwoooo" Harry let out a deep breath as he massaged his temples "Damn, I honestly didn't expect that."

"Is she going to be all right" Ophelia said in a desperate voice

"Yeah, we will get to that in a minute. At first I thought the Malediction Blood Curse was just once curse. Forcefully turn the victim into an animal, and the pain was the result of that. But I was wrong. Its quite the complex piece of magic. The creator of this curse was definitely a sadistic son of a bitch.

The Blood Curse had several different factors to it. First of all it is forcefully passed on from parent to child for generations, and it strengthens with each generation. Making it even more difficult to remove. You are the 21 first generation right?" Harry asks Daphne which she nods

"21, 7 by 3, these are magically powerful numbers. The curse should have peaked with this generation, I'm guessing that your child Daphne will definitely have the Curse. And so will every Child you have. The curse is at its peak, the child would probably not even survive a few weeks after it was born, if nothing was done. The Greengrass line would have ended with you two."

There were several gasps in the room but Harry just moved on

" Now for the effect of the curse. It should have come to me from the start. It's not that difficult to transfigure a human into an animal if you have the knowledge on how to do it. So why does it cause pain?

Because its a separate effect. The bastard made it so that the victim would always be ill, giving them a weak body and a weak magical core. By doing it this way it means that the victim won't be able to resist the process of turning into an animal. They can try and force their magic to work against it. But eventually they will turn into one.

The curse targets your Spirit Animal witch you use to become an Animagus and changes the base. If Animagi aren't careful they can remain stuck in their animal form. That's what the curse does, it tricks the magic in your body to believe that their Animagus form is their real form. By the way, Astoria's animal is an Artic Fox. "

The people in the room processed the news. "So how do we cure it?"

"There are several ways, ideally I would like to get rid of their curse from their bodies completely. Actually scratch that, I'm definitely going to do that. Someday Daphne will carry my child, I won't allow a curse like this to affect my children.

I can think of a few things to help or slow it down, and a few contingencies.

First of all Astoria needs to become an Animagus. So if she does get trapped in an Animal Body. She can turn into a 'Human' as her 'Animagus Form'. That way she can just go back and forth at will.

Then I suggest we stock up on her hairs. She can just use a Polyjuice potion to turn into a human.

I'm going to be looking into a way to get rid of the curse. Which is quite difficult as its deeply engraved into their genes. Genetic manipulation is a pain. I'll start her on a potion regimen and use Blood Magic of my own to lessen the effect of the curse. Now that I know the curse has multiple effects, I can treat each one differently"

Harry patted her head "You are going to be fine kid, at the very least I'll make sure you are not in pain. But you are going to need to work hard to become an Animagus. Do you think you can do it"

The little girl was crying, all her life she was nothing but a burden to her family, every healer they went told her that she was going to die. And now, Harry, the boy who changed everything for her Family. Was telling her that she would live.

"Yes. I will do it!" She said bravely.

Harry patted her head "Good girl, have a lollypop"

He stood up and stretched before he looked at the time "Ughh, workout time." he grumbled before he got a mean look in his face

"Hope, call the Tonks, tell them to meet me in the Training Room. Dora must come, I would also like Andi and Ted to be there if possible"

Hope raised an eyebrow "Sure, but what are you planning now?"

Harry glanced at the Greengrass's "I want to break their world views a bit. Its time for a wake up call"

~ Physical training

Harry hates training. Naturally as the lazy ass he was. He developed the most efficient way for him to train. Best result in the least amount of time. So he had more time for research.

He had already created a potion that would increase the 'gains' he would get. And he researched the optimal way to train.

When the women entered the room they were confused and embarrassed. They were all wearing sports bra's and shorts. Except for Astoria who was wearing a kid's spots shirt. All of the women and girls were there, except Melinda. Ted couldn't make it due to a meeting with a client. He will be joining later on. Harry doesn't like to leave any weak spots with which people can target him with. And if he does get caught. Harry will of course try and save him if possible. If not, then he is own his own, its his fault for being caught in the first place. 

Harry was about to show them why exercise was important for their survival.

Harry was doing an one handstand and was doing push-ups. He only had shorts on.

"Harry would you mind telling me why we are all here" Andromeda asked politely, quite embarrassed to be dressed this way, she might be living in the muggle world, but she was raised as a traditionalist. And showing this much skin when not on the beach was very embarrassing. 

"You are all here to check how physically fit you are. I need to know your maximum so I can make a training regiment for you. Ted will also get one later. You know now how the real world is. You don't have the luxury to afford not to train.

Mage types don't need a lot of strength, but they do need agility and endurance. If you are not running as a wizard or a mage you are an idiot. Staying in one position is a good way to get yourself killed. Don't use me as an example, I am overwhelmingly powerful compared to you. If I am up against someone who is equally matched, staying in one place would be suicide, I'll run a marathon around my opponent if it means I get to kill him and survive"

"Okay so what do we have to do now?" Dora asked with her hands on her hips.

Harry let out a grin as he summoned a long piece of parchment. It had a long list of exercises on it, there was writing on both sides

"Some of you might hate me after this.. But it's a sacrifice I am willing to make"

Their paling faces made Harry laugh even harder 'Today will be a good day'
