The five Gryffindors were sat at their house table, having breakfast as the rest of the school buzzed around them, the excitement of Sirius Black breaking into Hogwarts and the whole sleepover in the Great Hall setting many tongues ablaze.

None had any idea what had transpired in the hall less than an hour ago.

Y/N was enjoying his breakfast, audible 'mmm' sounds escaping his lips as his girlfriend and three friends looked at him puzzled.

He looked up from his plate, noticing them all staring at him, and asked them:

"What? Do I have something in my beard?"

"No love... when did you start eating bacon?" Hermione asked, expressing what they all were thinking. None of them had seen Y/N eat anything but eggs at breakfast for the last three years.

Y/N chuckled as he finished the rasher he was eating and wiped his mouth before he began speaking.

"I wasn't joking when I talked about the food. You eat enough bugs and lizards and you won't mind breaking your diet just once for some bacon."

Y/N returned to his meal as Lavender and Hermione covered their mouths in shock. Harry gagged. Ron continued to shovel sausage.

"Why would you eat that?" Harry asked in horror.

"It was the cuisine of the Awá people, Harry. I was their honoured guest, and it was a tremendous privilege to be allowed to stay with, to be taught their most sacred teaching, their esoteric mysteries. It would have been insulting and dishonourable to insult their hospitality."

Harry nodded in understanding before asking with sincerity:

"What did lizard taste like?"

Before Y/N could answer Ron's head shot up from his plate as he answered with a mouthful of food:

"Let me guess- chicken!"

He proceeded to laugh loudly at his own joke. Y/N merely deadpanned him, answering with a tone of disgust at Ron's (lack of) table manners:

"They were lizards, Ron. They tasted like lizards."

He leant in to Hermione and Lavender who was on the other side of her and whispered:

"I do not recommend it."

The girls laughed before Lavender asked Y/N:

"But this knowledge, if it was so important why did they share it with you?"

Y/N chuckled before answering:

"That would be because of a great cosmic irony, Lav."

Y/N's friendship group looked at him puzzled as Hermione asked:

"What do you mean, love?"

Y/N smiled and asked: "What's the difference between me and Malfoy?"

"Looks" said Hermione

"Brains" said Ron

"Loyalty" said Harry

"Courage" said Lavender

"Muscles" said Hermione as she traced a finger along her boyfriends bicep.

Y/N looked at her with a faraway glazed look before shaking his head to focus again on his conversation.

"Ok bad example. What's the difference between my mother's family and my fathers?"

"You mean the emphasis on blood purity?" Hermione asked, catching on to Y/N's meaning and drawing her attention away from his body for the time being.

"Exactly babe. Always brilliant!" Y/N smiled and leant in to kiss her. It was a peck, which turned into another. Then another. Then another. Their lips melted into each other as Hermione tilted her head to deepen the kiss before...

"Ahem"

The couple separated, Hermione blushing and Y/N looking at his three friends.

"Sorry what were we talking about?"

"Oh for the love of- blood purity Y/N" Lavender said exasperated as she rubbed her temple. She mockingly elbowed Hermione and said forcefully:

"Hermione! Stop distracting his blood flow".

"Right yeah sorry" Hermione said as she blushed even more. Y/N chuckled and continued on:

"So it turns out my fathers line, the L/N line, we are a very... special bloodline."

He inhaled before speaking again.

"We can apparently trace our descent to Leonidas as Rowan told us in first year, but it's more than that. Leonidas was descended from Achilles, Achilles was descended from Thoth and so on and so forth until you get back to..."

"Adam" a deep voice said suddenly from behind Y/N. The four friends all jumped in fright at the sudden appearance of a man in a trench coat. Y/N merely chuckled:

"Pretty ballsy showing up in a crowded hall, Cass"

"No one but you five can see me" The angel said in his deep monotone voice. Ron stared at the man, all colour draining from his face as he stuttered and stammered:

"This is the- the- the..."

"the Angel" Y/N said with a smirk at Ron's shocked expression. Castiel smiled and continued:

"You finally know the truth, Y/N. You, your brothers and your cousin are Sons of Adam. The last Sons of Adam, until Hermione provides you with offspring. Your bloodline is revered all over the world."

Hermione smiled wickedly at Castiel's words, a thousand images setting off in her mind as Y/N elaborated:

"Adam wasn't the first man like the muggles believed Lav, he was the first wizard. His eldest son Abel had one son before he was killed by his brother Cain. All other magical lines descend from the youngest brother Seth. The L/N bloodline is the last of the eldest son of the eldest son etc. The 'Son of Adam' if you will. The first son inherited the most magic off his father, the second less and the third less still. And that Lav, is why these communities agreed to share their knowledge with me. Having an angel appear with you as you explained your sudden appearance in their halls and tents certainly helped. Thanks again Cass."

"It was nothing. I must go. We will speak soon Y/N."

With that and a flutter of air the angel had disappeared as suddenly as he had appeared in the first place.

"Ok wow, that's a lot to take in" Harry said bewildered.

"Yeah, now you know why I was gone for four months. Takes a while to get your head around everything. Not to mention mastering how to keep your... you know what at bay."

"But you can defeat it right, take its power for your own?" Hermione asked suddenly concerned as her thoughts returned to the present.

"Some of my archy-affected ancestors did. Achilles, Thor, Thoth. I just wish I could speak to them. Find out how they did it. I'm nowhere near strong enough at the moment. The bastard eviscerated me last time I confronted it".

"You'll figure it out babe. I know you will. Have you had enough to eat?" Hermione asked smiling.

"Yeah I'm good thanks babe." Y/N nodded. He had barely finished speaking when Hermione was already up and out of her seat, dragging Y/N off as she answered:

"Excellent. Let's go!"

She took him by the hand as she practically pulled him out of his seat, much to Lavender's amusement as she yelled out "Use protection!"

The last she saw of the couple was Y/N flipping her off as he was dragged from the hall.
