Well i didn't listen to my own advice and got blackout drunk, I have been drinking from the 31 to the 3rd of Jan, which was my 27th birthday. Man I am getting too old to be drinking like this.
The spirit is willing, but the body can't keep up anymore. I forget I am not 20 year old me that can drink a liquor store and still be fine afterward. Guess I will be drinking a lot less at parties xD

Once again Harry was on this godforsaken train, and once again he decides to sleep through it while laying on Hope's lap. The girls around him carried on as usual with their gossip.
They had arrived early as to get a compartment for themselves. Naturally Harry expanded it and plopped down a table and an extra couch.
In the cabin were Harry, Hope, Daphne and Tracy. Astoria the little happy munchkin went to buy snacks for everybody. She couldn't wait for the lunch lady to come since the train hasn't even left the station yet.
"Man this summer was such a blast" Tracy grinned happily, she had so much fun with Daphne, going to beaches, having amazing food, she even got to surf!
"I enjoyed it more than I thought" Daphne admitted. It was nice, calm peaceful days at the beach. Well it was peaceful for them, Harry as usual causes chaos anywhere he goes.
But besides that Astoria was having fun, her Mother was happier than she had ever seen. The only thing that bothered her was the marriage contract, but maybe, just maybe it was going to be fine. Rationally she realizes its not a big deal as it was going to happen anyway, probably with Draco Malfoy or a much older man. Emotionally was anther thing, emotions are difficult, especially in young teens.
"It was fun" Hope smiled as she gently played with Harry's hair "For a long time it was just the three of us. More people definitely made it more interesting. Before that it was mostly Melinda and me, but she was old then and couldn't move around much, Harry just did his thing and tested out any wild idea that popped into his head"
"Like what?" Tracy said curiously, what could Harry Potter do as a kid?
She didn't know that thought was a rabbit hole you did not want to go into
Hope just sighed "At the time I didn't understand most of the stuff he was doing, but form my point of view, he tried channeling a electricity through his body like a conduit, he used lightning on sea water hoping to make it explode like a bomb, making a true blue flame, only to lose control and set a lake on fire."
"True blue flame? Can't we already make blue flames" Daphne frowned, she had been reading a lot about science but temperature differences like that was later on her reading list
Hope shook her head "I'm not talking about fire magic, or just changing the flames color. Harry tried to create a fire that burns hotter than the sun. It was frankly an insane experiment to begin with and he was lucky he didn't blow himself up. Thermodynamics is measured in Kelvin. Our the surface of our Sun for example is measured at 6000 Kelvin or 5,600 Celsius. And that's a Yellow start. White Stars have 10 000 Kelvin and Blue Stars the hottest stars in the known universe have an average of 20 000 Kelvin, close to 20 000 Celsius"
Both girls were deadpanning at the sleeping Harry ' ' He tried to make that? Of course it wouldn't work'
Hope chuckled at their expressions. She didn't mention something she had casually overhear Harry mumble. '...the hottest known star is WR 102 in the Sagittariusconstellation, a Wolf-Rayet star with a surface temperature of approximately 210,000 Kelvin. Wonder how that heat could be created in a spell...' Harry was a walking global disaster just waiting to happen.
"Daffy I brought a friend" a loud yell was heard from the hallway causing Daphne to facepalm. Soon after Tori entered the compartment with another girl next to her. Tori had a proud look on her face "Meet my new friend. Luna Lovegood"
~ A few minutes earlier.
Tori picked a bunch of snacks for everybody, more for Daphne like the bestest little sister she was. As she made her way back to the part of the train where the rest were.
Astoria finds a blond girl being teased by a few girls her age. She didn't understand most of what they said because of how much they overlapped when they talked, but she got that they were mostly talking about her crazy father and his newspaper. Their parents said its rubbish so they were throwing it in the face of the little girl, they also called out her strange clothes
Naturally Tori was not going to just let that happen. Harry said if something doesn't feel right, do something about it, just don't be stupid.
Harry doesn't prevent them from doing good things, he does however stop them from being manipulated. One of his lessons was about heroic acts, and how most of them are manipulated. He gives them various scenarios and lets them answer. Before he gives the realistic reason and cause.
Astoria subtly waved her wand and a bunch of bugs appeared on top of the girls who were bullying the blond girl. Loud screams followed soon after. The girls started to run around in panic and even left the train while the bugs followed them anywhere they went.
The blond girl looked confused and dazed. Then for some reason she turned to Astoria. Tori was surprised that she was noticed, thinking that she was being really subtle. "Thank you for helping me" the blond girl said politely with a small smile
Tori feeling proud of herself puffed up her chest and grinned "No problem. I hate bullies and i was thought if I ever saw one to show them their place. I'm Astoria Greengrass, what's your name?"
"Luna. Luna Lovegood"
~
Harry woke up when Astoria enters. A part of his brain is always active when he is asleep, and when he is awake it rests. That part detected an unfamiliar magical signature enter his vicinity.
Harry woke up and looked at the person who entered. It was a young petite girl with blond hair and silvery eyes. She wore blue and pink clothes and had a strange Butterbeer cork necklace. Harry focused on the corks, they were aged differently, meaning it took a while for her to collect the corks and turn them into a necklace.
Harry realized immediately who it was 'Luna Lovegood, huh Astoria sure has some strange luck to meet with her. Well whatever, both will do each other some good, they both need more friends.' he didn't think too much of it. Luna was a kind strange girl, she didn't pose any threat to Astoria so in his mind they can do whatever they wanted. He wouldn't interfere.
Harry snapped his fingers and a mug appeared in his hand with fresh coffee. He would have fallen asleep again, but that was rude and once he was awake he had a difficult time falling asleep again without the assistance of spells.
Luna looked at Harry with her head tilted a bit "You are strange, you have a green fire on your head"
PFFFFFFFF
Harry who was drinking his coffee spat it out on the ground from shock. Hope looked at him with her jaw dropped. Harry was never surprised, not like this.
Luna then turned to Hope and giggled "You look like a wolf cub with bat wings, its so cute" Hope's jaw dropped even more. Hope exe shut down.
Daphne was next "You feel nice, like a forest in the morning" but frowned when she looked at Tracy. "You have Wrackspurts, actually all of you have Wrackspurts now, how mysterious, you didn't have any before"
Luna like a hurricane walked in and created chaos with her casual remarks
Harry didn't waste any time. He used Legilimency this was very hypocritical of him since he hates when someone mind rapes people, but he couldn't let this one go. Oh boy that was a mistake.
Pain immediately erupted in his mind and he quickly pulled back. Harry gripped the seat and closed his eyes. There was one thing he saw in Luna's head.
Chaos.
All her thoughts were all over the place. Literary. Just a bunch of incoherent words to him. But he did get something, an image of them. It was how she saw them.
Harry looked at himself in the 'picture' his hair was set a flame with green fire. And tiny balls of squabbles were buzzing around him.
'Holy shit, Wrackspurts are real. No that's not it, its magic, she sees pure magic and emotions, no the soul or mind, no that's not it either, i have no idea what she can see. These Wrackspurts are probably how she sees confusion and panic.'
Harry rubbed his eyes ' I need more data' "Luna, since when could you see those things"
The little girl slumped a tiny bit "My Mum died a few years ago during a magical experiment. I could see weird things after that" It was clear that she was still sad about her mothers passing.
"Do you know what experiment?" Harry nudges her with his friendly attitude
Luna perked up, eager to make some new friends "Yep, I remember it"
She writes a symbol on a piece of paper, a symbol she will remember for the rest of her life as her mother was writing it when she last saw her
Harry recognized it. It was the symbol of the Egyptian God Horus. Luna's mother was doing a ritual involving Horus
'What the hell is Horus doing?!' This was the second case he had found involving Horus, the first one was Leonardo from the Hunter Team Lybra. 'He is just giving people different eye abilities. This isn't Fate or Naruto'
"I like your ring, it looks...sick or broken, are you taking care of it?" Luna pointed on the scorpion resting on his finger.
Harry smiled at her "Luna, i think me and you are going to be great friends. Now lets see what else you can see"
On the inside Harry was laughing like a maniac ' If Luna's eyes really do what I think they do. Then she can see the secrets of magic. Even if she doesn't understand what she sees, just her descriptions can help me on stuff I have hit a road block with. Tori deserves a prize, I'll get her something nice for this.'
"Hey your Wrackspurts are gone" Luna cheered but then tilted her head "But I see something else. Little red creatures with horns and spinning eyes dancing around his head" (imp from Soul Eater)
Hope just sighed, she was smart herself and picked up on what Luna could do, and judging by Harry's expression she could guess his thoughts 'Probably his Insanity or greed'
"Luna ignore him. How about some sweets?" She patted the little blond on the head
"Do you have pudding?" Luna asked shyly
"OH! I want some too!" Tori raised her arm up high
~USA, Nicholas Black
"I'm sorry Mr. Black, sadly we can not accept your offer at this time" A slightly chubby businessman said in a fake tone. The man was a slime bag, bug he held a lot of sway in the company.
"A pity" Nicholas nodded at him "Well there will be other chances in a future"
"I'm sure they will" the man nodded 'Not in your lifetime bub'
"I'm sorry to have taken up your time" Nicholas stood up but held back a smirk 'There will be chances, but not for you. I was going to help him out if he accepted, but he made his choice. What kind of idiot acts like this when there is a hit on his head? Putting Constantine in as an Assassin was the best decision 'they' have made. He has a list of people that are going to be killed.
Nicholas Black approaches them and based on their personality and what they have done will make them an offer. Helping them leave the country in exchange for money or shares in their company. Ever since he stepped foot in the US he has been hanging around within these circles. Scamming people left and right. Legally.
~ New York
John Constantine was hanging around in the lobby of the Continental. Looking through contracts on his phone. There was another reason why he was doing assassination without magic. Magic makes things easy and effortless. But it also makes you lazy and sloppy.
He was brushing up on Belmont skills. Stalking silently in the night, unseen and unheard. He chose his targets carefully, all of the were scumbags. And the client sometimes asks for them to be killed in specific ways. With these types of requests most are them for the target to die in painful agony.
In these cases John uses a few new normal poisons 'they' have developed. Test subjects and he gets paid. Win-win. And if the client doesn't say to make it look natural. He robs the target's blind after he kills them. No magic. Just hacking into their accounts. Which proved to be difficult and he failed a bunch of times as expected. But it was good practice.
Normally he would just rip the information out of their heads. But these kills were done without magic. And he was sticking to that, better this way so that some faction of the Supernatural doesn't go hunting for a magical serial killer.
Assassins were fine that's the problem for the police. But when magic gets involved it becomes their problem. The mundane world can't be allowed to find out about the Supernatural or all sorts of chaos would be set loose.
'Another target acquired. Scamming people out of their homes. Made a lot of enemies using that money. A hit has been placed on him. Well this is a job for me, I'll take that one, and this good judge will be handled off to 'Nicholas', easy money'
Harry made a good scheme here. Nicholas scams bad guys and Constantine kills them. Constantine finds info about hits on good guys, and Nicholas saves them. Both clones haven't even been in the same city. There was no connection and no evidence.
Not to mention Constantine was somewhat popular as an assassin. 100% success rate on mission he takes on. In the last few months he has finished 55 jobs.
' Hmm what is this?' Constantine looked on a hit, if you could even call it that. It was a bounty. A bounty on an unknown man. Demanding a confession, proof and an extremely painful death.
Target: Red John. Serial Killer in California.
'... Say what now?'

Just a little thing I put in here. How many of you know the TV- Show? It won't take long, it won't be an arc. A chapter or two of Harry scamming people of that Show.
