Odin In The Wizarding World

Chapter 5 - 5: Awkward family reunion

''Edward!'' Odin hears Hermione shout, before his little sister is already hugging him tightly.

''Hermione, care to introduce us?'' Asks the red haired friend of his sister, that Odin only now realises looks very much like Mr Weasly.

Letting go of him, Hermione tells Odin, while gesturing first to her friend with glasses. ''Big Brother Edward, this is Harry, Harry Potter a good friend of mine...'' Gesturing to the Mr Weasly look a like, she says. ''... and this is Ron Weasly a classmate of mine...''

''Hey aren't we all friends?''Complains Ron Hermiones introduction but ends up being ignored.

Hugging Edward once again as if showing him of to her friends she tells them. '' Harry, Ron. This is my mighty big brother Edward Granger.''

''Hello Edward. Nice to meet you.'' Say Ron and Harry simultaneously.

''Edward, there you are!...'' Odin suddenly hears Victor shout, drawing the attention of everybody present, as he together with Karkaroff descents some stairs from above joining them. Reaching Odin, they instantly hug, as he says. ''... Good to see you in one piece, brother!''

As they let go of each other, Odin gestures to his sister and her friends saying. ''You too, Vic. Good to see you. Now, let me introduce you two my little sister Hermione and her friends.''

''My p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.'' Says Victor, while Odin is able to see Dumbledore, Mr Weasly and Karkaroff aggressively argue.

''You-you- you are-are Victor Krum. MVP of the World...'' Odin hears Ron stemmer.

''Correct. Hermione, Harry, Ron this is my roommate in Durmstarng and best friend Victor Krum. As you already know he is a relatively famous Seeker.'' Says Odin introducing his friend to his sister and her friends.

''Nice to meet you...'' Say the three of them, just in time to be interrupted by Mr Weasly.

''Ron, Harry, Hermione we have to go back home, Molly is already worrying...'' States Mr. Weasly, before noticing Victor. ''... Well played Mr Krum, well played. It was just bad luck that you didn't get the world cup for Bulgaria.''

Having jis face turn from happy to ugly, Victor says while shaking hands with the auror. ''Thanks, I guess.''

Returning his gaze back to the kids, Arthur Weasly tells them. ''Ron, Harry, Hermione let's go.''

''You guys go. I stay with big brother. See you at 9 3/4.'' Says Hermione once again hugging Odin like an excited monkey.

Looking from Hermione to Odin, Mr Weasly asks him. ''Is that okay for you?''

Looking into the big eyes of his cute little sister Odin can only say. ''I guess so. I had planned a trip back home for some time.''

''Victor come. We are going back. Seems like the ministry is still filled with idiots...'' Odin hears Karkarof tell Victor, while giving him a disproving snort saying. ''... I just knew it Half-Bloods are not better than Mud-Bloods.''

''Well, nice to have met you, Miss Granger, Potter, Weasly...'' Says Vic to the kids, before turning to Odin saying. ''... See you at school.''

''Yea, see you soon.'' Says Odin, as everybody disperses, leaving only Hermione and him behind.

''Shall we go home?'' He asks his little sister, who empathically nods saying. ''Yes, definitely. For some reason mom and had have forgotten all about you. They always refer to you as my imaginary brother fore some reason.''

Remembering that he had put his mother and stepfather under the Obliviate spell, Odin feels somewhat guilty, as the feelings of the original Edward Granger start to influence him ever since meeting Hermione.

Deciding to confess his sin, he tells his sister as they walk to a nearby fireplace. ''Yea, well that might have to do with me putting them under the influence of the Forgetfulness Charm.''

Stopping and turning around in an instant, Hermione confronts him. ''What did you say?''

Pushing his little sister into the fireplace, while taking a handfull of Floo Powder, Odin tells her. ''I might have put them under the Obliviate spell, making them believe you where an only child...'' Trowing the powder into the flames, he shouds. ''... Northwest London, St Jude On-The-Hill Anglican Parish Church.''

With a boom, previously normal flames turn into harmless, emerald green flames that rise high and engulf Hermione before turning back, her gone. Stepping into the glames himself, Odin repeats the process and follows after his little sister.

Heathgate and Meadway, northwest London, England only a moment later...

Appearing right behind his sister, he finds the church they are now in empty.

''Wow that was fast!...'' Says Hermione to him seemingly already forgotten hat he had manipulated her parents memories. ''... I always had to use the abandoned fireplace at King's Cross Station. How did you discover that this one was connected to Floo Network?''

Odin remembers, that the former Edward had visited his family several times over the years in disguise, since his first year at Durmstrang in which he learned of his Death Eater father. One day, when once again repenting for his fathers sins in the church, the former Edward had by accident discovered the abandoned fireplace.

''Luck, I guess...'' Tells Odin her as they leave the empty church to walk home. Walking the familiar but at the same time unfamiliar road, that is a four point cross of roads with houses along each side of the roads, infront of the church.

Reaching the Grangers Family Home, Edward/Odin hesitate on the doorstep.

''What is it?'' Asks Hermione curious.

Still hesitating, Edward asks his sister. ''Could I borrow your wand for a second?''

''I guess, it is okay for you to cast spells, since you are legally an a.d.u.l.t...'' Says Hermione, while handing him her wand. ''... Here you go. I guess it would be better for you to remove your Obliviate spell from them.''

''I gueelss so...'' Edward tells her, remembering his predecessor to have made lasting changes to his mother's memories regarding his real father's deeds. Removing the Forgetfulness charm, without affecting these changes, he tells her. ''... I guess, now we can go in...'' As Hermione wants to nock on the door, he suddenly asks her. ''... Are they still working as dentists?''

Before Hermione can answer his question the door is already opened and his stepfather Wendell Granger appears behind in saying. ''Hermione, Edward, good to see you both back. Edward your mother will be happy to see you. Come in come in. It is so cold outside.''

''Dear, who is at the door?'' Edward hears his mother Monica ask as she walks out of the kitchen, while carrying a freshly backed cake.

''It is Hermione and...'' Says Wendel, as he is already interrupted by his wife saying. ''... Edward?! Is that really you? Looking good my son.''

''Good to see you, too mom, dad.'' Greets Odin his new parents, while still being under fire from the former Edwards emotions. Meeting his stepfather Wendell and mother Monica for the first time in seven year, his bottled up emotions explode, as tears awkwardly runn down his face.

Seeing her son tear up, Monica Grangers heart nearly breaks. Storming to her son, embracing him, she tells him. ''Welcome home son... Welcome home.''

Hugging his mother even stronger Edward 'Odin' Granger is finally born, as the soule of the Alfather finally fuses with his new body for good. Supressing his tears, Edward Odin tells his family. ''Well, that was an awkward family reunion...''
