Chapter 5
Once all the adults and students present had fallen silent, Dumbledore spoke again.
‘’The plan we have devised is based on the prophecy that Voldemort tried to steal from the Department of Mysteries yesterday. According to this prophecy, the person destined to defeat the dark lord who currently terrorizes our country is Harry Potter''.
At this, everyone in the room turned to look at Harry, who was both shocked and angry at Dumbledore for focusing even more attention on Harry than he already had and murmured again.
At this, Dumbledore cleared his throat and continued his speech, ```Unfortunately, as we all know, Harry is still too young to face the Dark Lord, so both Cornelius and I have decided to summon several Harry Potters from other worlds, who have already defeated Lord Voldemort, to help us end his reign of terror''.
Once Dumbledore had stopped speaking, everyone in the room fell silent for a few moments, processing the ridiculous and frankly insane idea that had occurred to the two most brilliant minds in the country. The silence didn't last long, as one person in the crowd began to applaud, being followed by another and another until the entire crowd present was clapping and cheering Dumbledore's idea.
Harry, on the other hand, was both angry and worried about the idea, since, for one thing, he would be the one being summoned from another dimension, and he didn't like the idea that any Harry who had defeated Voldemort and was enjoying the relaxation of his defeat would be forced to part with his life for a repeat performance.
On the other hand, he was frankly worried about what might come of it, because, if Harry were allowed to leave the war right now, he would do so without even blinking or worrying about his friends, acquaintances, or the twisted idea of his parents' revenge. Harry feared that the summoned person had stayed out of the war, or worse, taken Voldemort's side to allow himself to live a peaceful life.
Without giving Harry time to sort out his mind, or at least warn that this is not such a good idea, Dumbledore speaks again.
``As everything we need is already present in the room, we will begin with the summoning,'' Dumbledore said, then picked up the book on the table and began to recite what seemed to be an old ritual.
``O superi posteri
Heroas voco;
Harrius Potter supérstites
Voldemort victores
Adiuvare nos hic
In pugna
Ad victoriam nostram''
As Dumbledore was reciting this chant, a cold wind began to blow into the room and the roof of Hogwarts went from reflecting a sunny day to the clouds before a storm. This is a textbook ominous sign, Harry thought, but apparently everyone present was too busy watching the black doors being created to allow themselves to be distracted by a slight change in temperature.
When those doors, more like black holes created in the world, finished opening, Harry knew. This had been a very bad idea.
