Harry Potter and the Possessions of Voldemort
NOTE: This is the sequel to Harry Potter and the Two Draughts. If you have not read that, I would STRONGLY recommend that you do, otherwise a lot of this is not going to make sense. For instance, did you know that Voldemort is back out of a body, Malfoy is in Azkaban, Harry can perform Willpower spells better than even McGonagall and Snape (don't know what a willpower spell is?)
Sorry, but I can just see the flames now saying something like "Why is Lucius leading the death eaters?" ARGH!

Harry arrived at 4 Privet Drive for the summer, and yet again couldn't wait to get out of there. However, unlike like all the past summers, he wanted to leave so he could see Ginny again.
Days passed slowly at the Dursley's. This was largely due to the fact that he had nothing to do there, since his relatives didn't allow him to do magic during the summer. Since Aunt Petunia was in the habit of waking him at 7:30 each morning, Harry decided to pretend to go to sleep early each night, to give him some time to practice his spells. However, Harry had to be careful, since both his uncle and aunt were still up.
One night, Harry's ears picked up Uncle Vernon's voice from downstairs, a decent amount louder than normal. For one brief moment, he thought that Vernon heard an incantation. Harry quickly hid his wand, quill, and parchment, and strained to hear more.
However, he sighed with relief when
he finally made out the words, "No, we're going to be going to vacation in the
fall!"
Aunt Petunia's voice cut in shrilly, "Vernon, I told you, we need to have a
vacation in the winter!" Harry was
starting to grow alarmed. He had never
heard his aunt and uncle raiser their voices to each other.
"Nonsense," Vernon said nastily, "What utter nonsense! Who would want to go there in the winter!"
"Nonsense?!" Aunt Petunia cried, "Who are you to be talking about nonsense, you codgey pillock!"
"Call me a codgey pillock, you sodding idiot!" Vernon roared. Harry gasped; he had never heard either of them use foul language before! He slowly opened up his bedroom door to see what was going on.
He saw his aunt and uncle glaring at each other with complete loathing. But the thing that made him gasp was the group of figures surrounding them. Seven tall cloaked figures stood in the living room downstairs, and Harry felt his bones chill from them.
Dementors! Harry thought to himself, as he quickly ran into his room and grabbed his wand. Apparently they were causing his aunt and uncle to become angry. His mind on Ginny, Harry quickly yelled "Expecto Patronum" while pointing the wand down the stairs. He saw Prongs emerge from his wand, and charge down the dementors. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon screamed; suddenly a large glowing stag was circling around them.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING," screamed Uncle Vernon, beet red.
Harry realized that Vernon couldn't see the dementors, and didn't know he was under attack. "Be quiet!" Harry urged, "We're not safe right now." While his aunt and uncle were still looking like they were horribly mad at him, at least they were quiet. Harry turned his eyes to the Patronus, and Harry saw something new. A dementor was still in the living room, but it was trapped in the corner. It couldn't leave the room, and Prongs was now glaring at it. Prongs charged, and the dementor let out a horrible, piteous scream. After a loud splintery sound of the dementor's hollow bones shattering, the dementor's robes fell to the floor.
"Where did those robes come from?" shrieked Aunt Petunia. Apparently the robes were now visible to muggles, and his aunt was in shock from seeing them appear from nowhere.
Harry felt he should at least try to explain. "That was a dementor – Ordinary people can't see them. They're evil, soulless beings which suck out happiness and good feelings. I drove them away, and that one died." Harry looked over at his aunt and uncle, which were now shaking themselves. Harry quickly ran into Dudley's room and grabbed some of his cousin's hidden chocolate.
"Eat it, it will help," Harry gently said. Ordinarily, his aunt and uncle wouldn't take instructions from him. However, it seemed both were still in shock, and ate the chocolate without a word. Harry felt a rush of relief as their features melted back to normal.
Harry's relief faded quickly, as he looked out the open door. The dementors hadn't completely fled. Instead, they were flanking 10 death eaters. Lucius Malfoy gently removed his mask, and said, "So, Harry. I heard you were able to block Avada Kedavra from Goyle. I'd congratulate you, except that I'm amazed that Goyle could even remember the words. Blocking a spell from him is no feat."
Another death eater grew very angry with this, and Harry guessed it was Goyle. Lucius seemed to notice this, and cast Cruciatus on Goyle. Goyle fell to his knees, and Lucius gradually turned his attention back to Harry. It seemed that without Voldemort, the death eaters were not held together very well.
"So, will you come out and face me? Surely, if you did manage to defeat Voldemort, you'd be able to defeat me," Lucius hissed.
It hit Harry then – the death eaters couldn't enter his yard! "Why don't you," Harry called back, "Come in here?" Lucius glared at Harry, and suddenly threw his hand forward until it hit an invisible barrier. Pink veins arched in a giant sphere around the house, contrasting vividly with the dusk sky. Lucius smirked, and withdrew his hand. Seconds later, the street was empty as the Death Eaters disapparated and the Dementors glided silently away.
Harry shut the front door, and walked by his aunt and uncle without a word.

I will try to have chapters up every other day, but I can't make any promises. Also, I don't think I'll be able to get any chapters posted at all during Thanksgiving week, since I will not have internet access at the time.
Please read and review!
