Chapter one

After telling the Dursley's that the mass murderer, Sirius Black was in fact his godfather who would be in constant contact with his godson to make sure he was safe and happy, Harry Potter was left alone, completely, even ignored. Harry didn't really care even if it was a bit lonely. So he figured he would use this time to do a lot of thinking, especially about people that were involved in his life.

During his second and third year at Hogwarts, Harry had started to loose respect for many people in the magical world. First was Albus Dumbledore, in fact Harry had begun to hate the old wizard. Apart from leaving Harry with muggles in the first place, denying Harry any knowledge of his magical heritage, he never once checked up on how he was treated. The old man believed family would be best yet Harry had no idea why it was his decision when he wasn't family.

Harry knew that the way the Dursley's treated him could be called child abuse, but it seemed the headmaster of Hogwarts did not care. The other reason and main reason Harry hated Albus Dumbledore was because of Severus Snape, potions master and bastard in every way. Harry could not believe the headmaster would allow Snape to act the way he did, not just towards Harry but all students who were not in Slytherin. But also Snape was just down right mean and cruel, and he was allowed to get away with making up reasons for taking points and putting students in detention, which Harry got more than any other student.

Next was Hermione Granger, she might have helped Harry rescue Sirius but her arrogant attitude in regards to her brains and her belief that the adults in Harry's life knew what they were doing, grated on Harry, so much so he wanted to point his wand at her and cast the petrifying charm on her and leave it on her permanently. She had said to Harry not long after Sirius escaped that Sirius would not make a good parental figure for Harry. He bit his tongue but gave her a look which made her flinch as she moved a few steps back, since then she has never spoke ill of Sirius again.

Another person Harry lost respect for was Minerva McGonagall. She was a fairer teacher but as deputy head she never once took any students complaints about Snape seriously or do anything about it, she just let him do whatever he wanted. Another reason Harry had lost his respect for her was he found out that she had been with Dumbledore when they left Harry at the Dursley's.

But the main thing that made Harry furious was the fact that they left him on a doorstep on a cold night. It did not matter they placed warming charms around him, or so he had been told. Harry thought of other dangers, like dogs who could have bitten him or even some muggle who might have taken him for some sick reason, Harry tried not to think about what those reason might be. He could not understand how adults, supposedly smart and powerful witches and wizards could do that to a baby.

Now Harry was sitting in his room with only Hedwig as company while he decided what to do about a few things. He knew it was time to dissolve his friendship with Hermione. Ron and Harry only stayed friends with her at the start since she did lie to the teachers to get them out of trouble. But even Ron was getting annoyed with her.

The trouble is Harry knew Ron had started to have feelings for her that was why he decided not to say anything to Ron. When he returned to Hogwarts he planned to lay it out for Hermione, he didn't like her and didn't want her as his friend and wanted her to stay right away from him. He knew that talk may take place at the Burrow, depending on if she was there, Harry didn't know if she had been invited, but she probably was.

If Ron decided to see if Hermione would take notice of him and stay her friend then Harry would understand, even if he would dissolve that friendship as well. Harry felt he would not be able to trust Ron if he stayed friends with Hermione. That was the main reason Harry had not said anything to make Hermione or Ron suspicious, apart from that one look, but Ron understood that. Ron would not like anyone saying something like that about his parents, Harry did not want the same thing even though Sirius was his godfather not father. To Harry they were family, end of discussion.

Harry knew Hermione wasn't liked by most of the students at Hogwarts, some put up with her because she had been friends with him and Ron. Harry had caught Ginny a few times pointing her wand at Hermione's back, even if she never did anything, all Harry did was smile, he never said a word. Most of the girls in Gryffindor did not like Hermione, but Harry found out that every girl in Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff didn't like her either, most boys felt the same way. Neville spoke to Hermione, but Harry had a feeling it was because Neville didn't have many close friends. With Harry and Ron usually together, Seamus and Dean were close, Neville was the odd one out. But Harry had come to really like Neville and was determined to spend more time with him, especially since he won't have Hermione nagging him all the time.

Harry never told anyone, not even Hermione and Ron that he downplayed his smarts. That came from the Dursley's who always punished Harry if he got a better report card than Dudley. Harry would do his homework where Hermione would see, but every night he would sit behind his curtains on his bed and add all the extra's he needed to. All his parchments were charmed so he could rearrange or remove words whenever he needed it. Harry wondered how Hermione would feel if she checked on the student ranking to find Harry was either equal to her or maybe in front in some subjects. Harry found out that they only gave the rankings to each student before the start of each year, that way they would know if they needed to work harder or not, specifically in the different subjects, but he also knew that you had to go up to your head of house and ask. Hermione thought she was top of the class so she probably believed she was top of the whole year.

Harry lay back on his bed, his hands behind his head, thinking about what he had overheard while using his cloak. Dumbledore and Snape were talking about the prophecy which said either Harry or Voldemort would have to kill the other. Everyone knew Dumbledore's views that Voldemort would return one day, but Harry wasn't sure what that had to do with him. He needed advice and there was only one person who he trusted completely.

"Dear Sirius, I need advice and I wish I could talk to you in person, you are the only person I trust and since we are practically family I figured you would be able to help. For now I'll just ask one or two things, maybe the next letters will have more as I need a lot of advice. I hope you won't reveal any of this to anyone, not Dumbledore, not even Remus, I hope I can trust you to keep this to yourself. If I get a chance to speak to you in person I will explain, for now I can't just in case this letters gets read before it gets to you. I do know my letters have been intercepted before, I have suspicions on who is doing it but no proof.

"Anyway, first is a dream I had, but I don't think it was a dream and it's got me worried. Peter Pettigrew was talking to Voldemort, even though he was just this weird disgusting thing, there was also a huge snake they called Nagini. Now they were planning to capture me and there was something said about a faithful servant at Hogwarts. You know how many times I've almost died there, three times by Voldemort, maybe this time he will succeed. I have no idea what is planned just that it's at Hogwarts and they want me. Maybe you could find out if something is happening at Hogwarts this year that could bring people I don't know close to me, see if you can without being obvious.

"Next, you met Hermione but you didn't get to see what type of person she really is, an annoying and arrogant bitch, who believes she's the smartest person around. She never stops going on about trusting the teachers, which she does, especially Dumbledore. The thing is I don't like or trust Dumbledore, nor Snape or McGonagall.

"I don't know if you were told the story of the night you went after Peter, so here goes. Hagrid took me as you know on your motorbike, he took me to Dumbledore who was waiting at Little Whinging, McGonagall was there as well. Petunia is a bitch, I'm sure you heard stories about her from my mother, Vernon is a bastard and loves to try to beat the magic out of me. Okay, that night, they left me on a bloody doorstep in the middle of the night. Now you can turn into a rather large dog, you know what a vicious dog could do to a child, especially a baby. There are so many people around here that let their dogs wander, even of a night. Next, what about child abusers, paedophiles, I could have been kidnapped by one of those types. Great way to say thanks for destroying Voldemort, to me they were dumping me and that's why I can't like or respect those two. Hagrid is different, he was following orders so he had no choice and it was Dumbledore that gave Hagrid the job after he was expelled so he feels indebted to Dumbledore.

"I know it sounds like I'm having a bitch but I'm sick of all of it, the shit way I'm treated by the muggles, how I was treated back then, I found out that what's left of Voldemort wants to capture me, why, probably to kill me, torture me first I reckon. I really need to know what to do about Hogwarts, Hermione I already know is gone, I want nothing to do with her anymore, Ron, I hope will remain a friend but he likes Hermione so I'm not sure. Anyway, I'll leave this for now, but I do need to tell you more, something important and again I need advice. Hope to hear from you quickly but if I don't I will be going to the Burrow soon to stay with the Weasley's, I won't be telling them anything, just in case. As I said, I trust you, I know you would never betray my confidence because of how you felt about my father, Harry."

Harry re-read the letter, 'Yes, good,' he walked over to Hedwig who had her leg out, 'You know me so well girl,' he tied the letter to her leg, 'It's for Sirius, I know it will take you awhile, so take your time, hunt, rest then find me, either here or at the Burrow,' Harry gave his faithful own a pat then let her hop onto his arm where he carried her to the open window, 'Safe flight girl,' he smiled as he watched his owl take flight but he hoped he wouldn't have to wait long to hear from his godfather.
