Chapter Two: Training, Family, Attack and the Unleashing
"If I want to win then I need to train… the best way to train is if I have teachers… and how am I supposed to get any teachers to help me in the summer…" 'I know ill ask Snape, Hay Professor do you want to come and teach me your most hated student in the summer holidays which you should be enjoying, but instead are spending with me? Ya that'll work' "I guess I could ask Remus and Dumbledore, maybe Tonks can as well she's a auror, ok now for a letter," muttered Harry to himself coming up with an ingénues plan.
Harry walked over to his trunk and took out the quill and parchment, walked over to the table next to the fireplace and sat down and started writing.
Dear Professor,
I am writing this letter to ask if you could pull out all the stops to get me and my friends exception from the underage use of magic law. I am also writing to ask if you could arrange training for me and my friends if they want it, I would really like it if Remus and Tonks were some of my tutors. I wanted to ask if you would know of any helpful books for me to get so that I would be able to further my knowledge, I'm going to need everything I can to help me against a certain Tom Riddle. I would also like to ask if you could teach me Occlumency. I won't be able to learn well with Professor Snape, I'm sure I'd be able to learn better with you, anyways thanks and see you later.
Yours Sincerely,
Harry J. Potter
"Hedwig" Harry called and a few seconds later the Snowy owl flew through his window and landed on his outstretched arm.
"Hay Girl, could you give this letter to Professor Dumbledore?" At the bob of her head, which he took to mean yes, he tied the letter to Hedwig's outstretched leg "If anyone tries to take that letter from you just forget about the letter and stay safe fly to Hagrid's, He'll look after you and when you feel better come back. Ok girl" The snowy white owl nipped his ear affectionately and flew out the window.
'Well I guess jogging would be a good idea, I'll need to get in shape if I'm going to duel anything like Dumbledore and Voldemort'
Changing into something more suitable for jogging, Harry walked downstairs to the front door. His hand had just made contact with the door handle when…
"Boy, where are you going?" asked Petunia
"I'm going to start jogging so that I'll be in better shape next time I have to face off against crazed Dark Lords and save the world! Duh!" Harry replied solemnly, but really laughing out loud inside at the look on his aunt and cousin's face's. And with that Harry opened the door and walked around the block searching for the best path for his soon to be ritual early morning jog. Once Harry had found a good path he started jogging, after about 15 minutes he was sweating profusely.
'I never knew I was that out of shape..."
Harry finished his jog and then leaned against a tree to regain his breath. He finished is panting and walked back to number four, climbed the stairs and got a towel for a quick shower before heading back to his room and starting his summer homework.
sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
The sky was blood red and everywhere he looked there was an empty grave with one of his friends names on.
"Come out. Come out where ever you are Tommy boy" Harry called out.
"Or I'll huff and I'll puff until your wig falls of old man" said Harry in a sing-song voice.
"Crucio" Pain shot through Harry's body like he'd never felt before, it felt as if daggers ran through his veins, his bones turned into molten and broke under immense pressure, his mind was frozen into solid ice and his skin was being scratched off. Harry fell to his knees, trying to stop himself from screaming. He succeeded until Voldemort started putting more power into the curse and hatred into their connection through Harry's scar. Harry screamed he had no idea how long, but he was barely able to keep his sanity when it finally stopped.
"Wow Potter, I didn't know humans could possibly scream like that" said Riddle sounding very pleased with himself.
"I-I'm really proud of myself there's not many people that can teach dark ladies" replied Harry with as much sarcasm as he could muster in a situation like this.
"You know Potter, I would crucio you again but I rather have you sane, you see Potter you could be very valuable to me if you joined me. Think about it Potter, remember there is no good or evil, there is only power and those to weak to seek it" whispered Riddle as he faded away.
sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Harry woke up to the sound tapping at his window, not having his glasses on and every cell in his body in pain. Harry just sat there looking at the ceiling trying to muster enough strength to reach for the pain relieving potion. With a huge gulp of air, Harry pushed himself towards the potion, grabbed it and gulped it down as fast as he could.
He lay there until his mind caught up to him, realising the tapping had stopped he looked over to the window. Seeing nothing there Harry pulled himself up and stumbled his way to the window. He opened it and waited; all of a sudden a huge snowball came and hit him in the face.
"Ahhgh, what the L" Harry yelled as the he realised that it wasn't snowing outside, and the only way that there could be a snowball in summer was if someone conjured it, in which case was unlikely as not many people would like to throw snowballs at The-Boy-Who-Did-Not-Dodge in the summer holidays with those thoughts he looked closer at the snowball.
"Since when do snowballs have feathers? Since when do snowballs have wings?... Oh it's a white snitch, no wait snitches aren't that big and they don't poke you with their beaks. I never noticed snitches have beaks" Harry muttered to himself still waiting for his brain to catch up.
"Oh hey Girl, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be flying with Merlin's beard, sorry girl my mind wasn't in the right place, in fact I don't know where it is at all, can you help me?" and with that Harry started looking for his glasses and let Hedwig look for his brain. A few seconds later he felt a sharp poke at the back of his head, turning around he saw a blurry Hedwig holding a letter and… his glasses.
"Oh my God, Hedwig, how could you steal my glasses, give them back now" Harry said incredulously.
Once Harry had his glasses back on he sat down and rested his head in his hands. Ever so slowly the headache relented and he was able to think clearly once again.
"Ahhh, I really need to at least practice Occlumency" Harry groaned "sorry Hedwig I didn't mean to offend you or anything."
Hedwig flew over to her master's shoulder and softly cuffed her wing on his head trying to sooth him.
"So what'd you bring me" asked Harry as he took the roll of parchment attached to his owl's leg, unrolled it and started to read.
Dear Harry,
I am glad to see that you are ready to deal with this, if it where anyone else I am sure that they would not have been strong enough to continue through all the hardships you have been through I am really proud of you Harry. I have been able to get the age restriction for the underage use of magic dropped to 13 years as it is a special war time order. As for you and your friends training I would be more then happy to organise and take part in it, that means yes I will teach you Occlumency. Your training will take place at in the park not to far from your house as we have already set up a number of wards and muggle repelling wards. Your other tutors will be Alastor, Remus, Tonks and Kingsley, your daily schedule will be as follows:
6:30 - 9:00 - Kingsley Shaklebolt
Physical Fitness, Dodging, Martial Arts and Wizard Arts
9:30 - 12:00 - Remus Lupin
Defence Against the Dark Arts, Arithmecy, Ancient Ruins, Runes
12:30 - 14:30 - Nymphadora Tonks
Stealth, Transfigurations, Charms,
15:00 - 18:00 - Alastor Moody
Duelling and Fencing
18:30 - 22:00 - Albus Dumbledore (Me)
Occlumency. Magical tuning, Magical Theory, Wandless Magic and Politics (as I'm sure we will need your fame if we are to rid of our current minister of magic).
That will be your time-table until you are moved to Headquarters on your birthday. As for your books you will be given them on your training session's with your tutors, but I daresay you will have the time.
Yours Sincerely
Albus Dumbledore
P.S. So you know who is outside your door at 6:30 in the morning and know not the hex them, the password is "I'm a teapot too".
P.P.S. Your training the day after tomorrow so get some sleep.
P.P.P.S. It would be wise to tell your family about the training.
After reading the letter Harry fell back onto his bed 'Well there goes my summer… Actually it'll probably be better this way' he though.
"Well I best go tell the Dorsey's" muttering to himself darkly thinking of how he would explain it to them "Oh well I guess I could just tell them the truth, who knows it might work"
Harry got up, pulled on some worn out clothes put the letter in his pocket and went downstairs. As he walked into the kitchen all talking ceased 'wish I could do that to Snape' he thought wistfully as he grabbed a plate of the shelf, filled it up and began to eat. Once he had finished eating he washed his plate and turned towards his aunt who was still eating with the rest of the family and took the letter from out of his pocket and cleared his throat to gain their attention.
"What is it boy" snapped Vernon
"I'm going to be training to defeat Voldemort and I just thought you should know that I won't be around much" said Harry calmly willing himself not to laugh at their expressions. Petunia looked shocked and horrified, Dudley looked more confused then normal (yes it is possible) and Vernon seemed to be spluttering while trying to swallow his food and looked enraged… well that or extremely constipated you couldn't really tell.
"Wha… WHAT DID YOU SAY and who is this Volodorp? Training I WILL NOT HAVE YOUR FREAKISH FRIENDS AROUND HERE YOU HEAR ME BOY!!! AND WHO THE HELL IS GOING TO WASH MY CAR!!!!" screeched Vernon
"Well. that I can solve for you easily, Dudley can wash the car" replied a calm Harry
"HOW DARE YOU AFTER ALL WE HAVE DONE FOR YOU!!" yelled Petunia
"FOR GOD'S SAKE WHAT IS SO DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND IN 'I HAVE TO TRAIN TO KILL THE MOST FEARED DARK LORD IN THE WIZARDING WORLD OR EVERYONE IS GOING TO DIE!!!" screamed Harry
silence…
"WHY THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO KILL THIS LORD WHY CAN'T SOMEONE ELSE, IS IT ONE OF YOUR STUPID SCHOOL TESTS" exploded Vernon.
At that Harry was about to double over laughing, 'beating Voldemort being an end of year exam, I can imagine Collin Creavy right now, he'd probably blind him to death with his camera. Well I guess you could get higher marks for that then going through potions'.
"I'm not going to go into why I have to do it, but rest assured if I can't do it none can, and if you don't believe me read this" Harry said handing Dumbledore's letter to a red faced gorilla Vernon.
"What is this boy" questioned Vernon
"It's a letter from my Headmaster, The most powerful light wizard alive at the moment" replied Harry as Vernon started to read through the letter. Once he had finished he looked over at Harry with if possible an even more red face.
"What does he mean by 'as I'm sure we will need your fame if we are to rid of this minister of m word" asked Vernon
"Oh well the minister is kind of corrupt and refuses to accept that Voldemort is back" replied Harry
"No, not that I mean about your fame" hissed Vernon
"Oh right, well I'm not exactly famous, but I'm pretty well known" replied Harry 'Should have guessed that he would only look at that'
"DO NOT LIE TO ME BOY, I WILL NOT HAVE IT, YOU WILL TELL ME NOW WHAT HE MENT" screeched Vernon
"Fine, calm down, you know deep breaths and all, anyways. He probably ment that since I'm the boy-who-lived because I'm the only one that survived the killing curse" replied Harry 'well that and a few other things'
"Fine you can go on this training thing, but if I have any of your kinds unnaturalness anywhere around my house… you will pay, understand, DO YOU UNDERSTAND BOY" yelled Vernon
"Yes I understand, by the way I wasn't standing that far from you so there was no need to yell" replied Harry while taking his letter and leaving the fuming Dursley's behind.
Instead of going back to his room Harry went for his morning jog. The weather outside was windy and cloudy casting a greyish look around the area, Harry managed to last a while longer then the last time before falling onto a park bench to regain his breath. Looking up at the sky Harry saw a owl flying overhead towards a house he knew to belong to Mark Evans 'I wonder… he might just be a wizard… Wow! We might be related, but then wouldn't Petunia at least talk to them? Well probably not… I wonder if I should stop over to say hi… best not, they might think that I'm more crazy then they thought and will probably think the whole thing is a joke'
Harry was distracted from his thoughts by a quite 'POP', immediately snapping into action Harry grabbed his wand from his pocket and aimed it to where he had heard the sound. In the distance he could make out that it was a witch wearing a dark green robe with a black pointed hat, quietly sprinting over to a near by tree. Harry hid behind it.
"What are you doing" asked a squeaky voice
"AHHHHHHHH!" yelled Harry as he turned around to see a little boy probably about 5 years old
"Oh I'm… I'm just playing a game, what's your name" Harry asked hurriedly
"Oh I'm Alan… who are you" Alan replied enthusiastically.
"I'm Harry, do you want to play Hide and Seek, well go and hide around there" Harry said not waiting for an answer and pointing towards the swings Dudley's gang had broken a few years ago, Alan nodding vigorously ran towards the swings. Sighing in relief Harry turned back towards where he saw the witch,
"Isn't that McGonagall… oh my god I was about to hex McGonagall, Ron's gona crack up and Hermione is going to kill me" Harry whispered to himself as he jogged to catch up to his transfigurations teacher
"Hay Professor what are you doing here?" Harry questioned
"Mr Potter, shouldn't you be inside?" answered his Professor with another question of her own
"Early morning jog, anyways are you going to meet the Evans about Mark, I saw the owl heading into their house. Professor I was kinda wondering do you think their related to me" asked a confused looking Boy-Who-Lived
"Yes, I am going to meet the Evans about Mark and no I do not know if they are related to you, but I guess we could find out, would you like to come with me? I daresay that they will be happy to know another wizard is around this area, especially a talented one as yourself" replied a smiling, slightly smirking McGonagall at the blush the compliment brought Harry
"Well… I… hay… um of course Professor" replied a confused Harry 'I never though she could smirk'
"Well let us not be late" replied Professor McGonagall, with that they made their way over to the Evan's house (for lack of a better name) which looked exactly like number four 'why the hell do all the houses have to look the same'
Once they reached the door Harry rang the door bell and patiently waited, a few seconds later the door opened revealing a tall man about 6.2 with brown hair and brown eyes, his mans eyes widened as he saw McGonagall was wearing robes
"Yes what can I do for you?" questioned the man
"Hello, Mr Evans I presume? I am Minerva McGonagall and this is Harry Potter, the letter you received stated I would be coming" Professor McGonagall said briskly
"Of course come in" replied Mr Evans
Professor McGonagall walked in and Harry followed
"Please have a seat" Mr Evans replied leading them into a large sitting room. The sitting room was painted morning sun yellow, the couches were black leather and there was a few pictures here and there around the room, but most notable were the large mirror on one wall and mounted Plasma TV, which at the moment McGonagall was staring at in amazement as Mr. T said his most famous line 'I pity the fool' in the A-Team
"That's a TV Professor, its muggle entertainment" replied Harry to the unasked question as McGonagall nodded her thanks and recovered her calm appearance.
Two minutes or so later Mrs Evans, Mr Evans and Mark Evans walked in.
"So Mrs McGonagall… umm the letter said you would tell us about, the um well the wizarding world" asked Mrs Evans
"Well yes, I am here to answer any queries you may have" replied McGonagall
"Umm why is he here" asked Mrs Evans indicating Harry "I took it as he is not very sane and attends St. Brutus"
McGonagall looked at blushing Harry in an amused way as Harry wished he could disappear
"Well I don't go to St. Brutus I go to Hogwarts" answered Harry
"Oh ok then but what are you doing here" asked Mr Evans
"Mr Potter is here so he can answer any questions you may have when I am not around, I thought it best that you know the wizard closest to you which in this case is Mr Potter, and there is not another wizard in this area for at least 10 miles, not only that but Mr Potter is one of our best students" answered McGonagall saying the last bit while looking at Harry
"Ok, umm since when has the wizarding world existed?" asked Mr Evans
"The wizarding world has existed since before the times of Camelot but there are not many records that go back that far" replied McGonagall
"To go to Hogwarts what will we need to do" asked Mrs Evans
"Your son already has a place there and has had since his first ever use of accidental magic. To get to Hogwarts you will need to go to kings cross station and walk through the barrier between platforms nine and ten to get to platform nine and three-quarters. You will also need to go to London and get your equipment for school form Diagon Ally, which I will take you to in two weeks so you will need some money to change into galleons, I would say about 600 to 900 pounds would suffice" explained McGonagall
There was silence for a moment before…
"Umm… excuse me, could you… you know do some magic please" asked Mark, with a slight nod and a wave of her wand Professor McGonagall conjured a shining suit of armour.
There were three gasps of astonishment and then a few moments of silence in which the Evans stared at the Suit of Armour before professor McGonagall realised that her time was up and she needed to go and visit the next family on her list (just like Santa Claus… except sterner)
"I hope that your current queries have been answered but I must leave, you can ask Mr. Potter here about anything else" she said looking from the resented looking muggles to a nervous looking Harry. "Do not worry Harry, it will be a lot like when you taught the DA" said McGonagall as she stood up to leave. It seemed that what she had said last had put both the Evans and Harry a bit more at ease with each other.
There were three gasps as professor McGonagall apperated before there was a loud exclamation of 'Cool' from mark. After Mrs Evans had shushed Mark did the three Evans turn toward Harry.
"What did she do?" asked Mr Evans
"She apperated, it's like disappearing and reappearing moments later in a different location" answered
Silence…
"So how long have you been at Hogwarts" asked Mr. Evans
"Five years, sir" answered Harry
"So how has Hogwarts been? As in, what type of things do you learn, is it difficult…"
"… is it dangerous?" finished Mrs Evans, Harry grimaced at the last question and Mrs Evans seemed to have picked up on it.
"Well Hogwarts is a really big magical Castle hidden in Scotland…"
"How can you hide a castle?" asked Mrs Evans
"well there are a lot of protections around Hogwarts, and many charms to keep it hidden, it has the most powerful wards in the world and in the wizarding world is known to be the safest place in the world" answered Harry "The things you learn at Hogwarts are things that will help you get a job in later life, controlling you magic, keeping safe and protecting yourself and others in any dangerous scenarios and new and useful skills. The classes are Transfiguration, which is changing something into something else or conjuring it like professor McGonagall did, she is the transfigurations teacher and deputy head of the school. There's potions, which teaches you how to concoct varies potions to get an effect ranging from changing your appearance…" Harry said remembering taking the polyjice potion in second year with Ron and Hermione, trying to find out if Malfoy was the heir of Slytherin, and then coming back to find a Hermione with tail all for free "to healing etc. Then there is Charms, things that are basically useful like household charms. DADA which is Defence Against the Dark Arts" at this the Evans looked sceptically at Harry "I'll explain why you need to know that after I have told you about the other classes." Taking a deep breath he continued "There's history of magic, Arithmacy which is the equations and formulas needed in spell making, there's Ancient Ruins, Runes and lastly Divination which it the art of telling the future, but it's really… well most people don't like it because of the teacher who is a bit eccentric, but is a descendant to a famous seer, seers are people who can read, tell and predict the future but they are extremely rare. Though she does have two true predictions" Harry finished
"What about Defence Against the Dark Arts?" questioned Mr. Evans, the same thought obviously shared between him and Mrs. Evans.
"Well…" 'Do tell them the truth?... How much do I tell them' "at the moment…" 'I wonder if I'll get in trouble if Mark doesn't go to Hogwarts' "Ok, there is going to be a huge war starting, well not really starting but continuing, because they where thought to have been stopped last time, but now they're back and they are going to start another war soon…"
"We don't want our son going" Mrs. Evans said with finality.
"Hogwarts is the safest place to be right now, not only that but the Headmaster is the most powerful Light wizard at this time, and Voldemort is afraid of him so it would be the safest place. The leader of the Dark wizards is Voldemort and his followers are called Death Eaters, their goal is to kill everything and any thing that is not from a full wizarding background and then to kill anyone who opposes them" Harry said waiting with bated breath for their reaction. The Evans looked pale and dumbfounded 'I guess that's to be expected'
Another moment of silence in which all the Evans seemed to be deep in thought.
"How do we know your not lying" jumped Mrs. Evan.
"What would I have to gain" Harry said, his eyes flashing as he remembered that people thought he had lied about Voldemorts return.
There was silence once again…
"What do you mean that they were thought to have been stopped?" questioned Mr. Evans
"Well Voldemort was thought to be dead and his followers were either put to death for their crimes or sent to Azkaban Prison. Only a few people did not believe Voldemort was dead and the others tried not to think about it and remain ignorant out of fear that Voldemort may still be alive" answered Harry
"How can you be afraid to think about something?" asked Mark
"I have no idea, 99 of wizards can't even say Voldemort and flinch when they hear his name" answered Harry the wise.
"Then why do you say his name" continued Mark
Silence…
"He killed my parents fifteen years ago, so I'm not really afraid of him" answered Harry
"So they didn't die in a car accident?" asked Mrs. Evans.
"No, they didn't" replied Harry
Silence…
"So are green eyes common in your family?" asked Mr. Evans.
"I don't really know, I don't know much about my family, especially my dad's side, I know he was a wizard from a wizarding background, and I know my mum was a witch from a non-magical background, she was my aunts sister and that she has green eyes, but only that" answered Harry feeling completely stupid about not knowing his own family 'I guess how could I with Voldemort, Dumbledore and the Dursley's'
"So would your aunt's name have been Petunia Evans before she got married?" continued Mr. Evans.
"Well… I guess" replied Harry.
"So your mothers name would have been… Lily" asked Mr. Evans.
"Yes and my dad's name was James Potter" answered Harry not understanding that Mr Evans could have none his mother (because other people in the wizarding world always knew more about his family then he did).
"Ahh… well you see Lily was my cosine" said Mr. Evans.
Silence…
"Oh, well that's good" said Harry who didn't know what to feel so close after Sirius's death, finding out about the Evans… In the inside Harry didn't know whether he should be upset of jumping around in joy… but chose neither.
"That would make me and you second cosines" said Mark looking at his fingers as if trying to count to make sure.
"Yeah, I guess it would, is there anything else?" asked Harry wanting to leave.
"No, is it ok if we call you? you live at number four, right?" asked Mrs Evans
"Yeah I do, and yes you can call me, thanks and bye" Harry said as he stood up to leave, Mark opened the door to let Harry out, once he was Mark closed the door and headed back to the sitting room.
"Well, what do you think" asked Marks dad Steven Evans, who was a mechanic.
"About Hogwarts I think that Mark should and needs to go and about Harry, well he it seemed as if he has a very complicated life and has no idea of how to deal with family" answered Alexandra Evans (Mrs Evans) Marks Mother a psychologist.
"I really want to go to Hogwarts, I don't think it'll be bad and it might be good to learn magic to defend ourselves" said Mark
sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Once Harry reached number four he was still confused about what had happened, 'I actually have family who aren't the Dursley's'
"Harry, Harry, HARRY"
SLAP!!!
"AHHHHHHH"
"Calm down, sorry for hitting you but you seemed to be miles away and I don't have time" Tonks spoke hurriedly
"Oh sorry" replied Harry
"There's a big attack in Uxbridge and I really need to get there to help out, so stay in your house until professor Dumbledore gives you the all clear, tell the Dursleys as well because you won't have a guard for a few hours" said Tonks before apperating away
Now Harry was on high alert and rushed into the house, slammed the door shut, then hurried into the kitchen to find the Dursleys eating (as usual) in the kitchen (as usual).
"BOY H…"
"Make sure you don't go out today until Dumbledore gets here, we don't have a guard right now because of an attack at Uxbridge so don't leave" said Harry and then made his way upstairs to his bed room.
As soon as Harry got upstairs he rushed into his room and slammed the door shut. He decided to practiced any magic that may come handy in a dual and then headed back downstairs making sure he had his wand on hand, he entered the sitting room where all the Dursleys were situated watching TV and decided to wait until Dumbledore arrived.
"MMMUUUUUUMMMMMM HARRYS GOT HIS WAND!!!" screamed Dudley.
"BOY WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I WILL NOT TOLEREATE SU…"
"SHUT UP!!!" ordered Harry "I've got my wand because there might be a attack here! And we have no guard…"
"GO TO YOUR ROOM I WILL NOT HAVE ANY FREAKISHNE…"
"Whatever" Harry said sighing in frustration as he made his way back upstairs, Harry left the door open as he entered the room and sat down on his bed waiting for any news or for any attacks that may occur.
Harry started to practice all the spells he could remember and tried to remember the others.
Three or so hours later Harry heard a soft pop to his left, jumping up and aiming his wand where he had heard the noise with a paralysation spell on his lips…
"My dear boy I am not here to heart you" said Dumbledore, Harry noticed that there was no twinkle in his eyes it seemed to be the trend now.
"Hello professor, how did things go?" asked Harry
"Unfortunately 36 muggles died and 12 aurors, many more injured" replied Dumbledore solemnly.
Silence…
"Harry I'm afraid that we will be very busy for a few days as we have to upgrade all security at the ministry and convince Fudge to allow Madam Bones to lower the restrictions for aurora training" informed Dumbledore gravely
"How many days Professor?" asked Harry
"Four maximum" answered Dumbledore "I'm sorry Harry but I have brought some reading materials you may find interesting"
Continued Dumbledore handing Harry six books in total
"Professor two of these books are on Dark Arts" stated Harry
"To combat and use Dark Arts you must know and understand them Harry" said Dumbledore
"I guess" answered Harry
"I'm sorry Harry but I must leave now" said Dumbledore
"Ok bye Professor" said Harry as Dumbledore got up and apperated away
Harry got up and put the books on the shelf with his other school books, as Harry got into bed he thought about how he had never imaged that his room would be changed into a room fit for a prince, he wondered how his room would be if his parents or Sirus were alive and sighed, there was nothing he could do 'It just goes to show you never know what to expect in the future' but as Harry fell asleep he would never have guessed how right he was.
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
"Ah Potter we meet again…" said Tom
"I guess you can't stand to be away from me" replied Harry
"Crucio"
Harry fell to his knees but refused to scream, his emotions seemed to be on the edge of a knife after all that had happened that day…
"Danm it… This is MY MIND,,, AND YOU WILL NOT CONTROLE IT" screamed Harry
"Potter do you really think you even stand a chance?" questioned Ton
"Yes and I swear that I will KILL YOU TOM" Swore Harry
"Potter, Potter, Potter what a pity, you still think that you may win… its pathetic really. Oh well… Crucio" sneered Tom
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Harry screamed
sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Once again Harry woke up screaming his body was still shaking in aftermath of the cruciatus…
"My body hurts sooooo much,… sooo danm much" whispered Harry, as tried to block out the pain
Harry reached for the pain relieving potion and gulped it down.
A few minutes later Harry was getting dressed to go on his morning jog, he lasted 5 minutes more then his last effort and was pleased with his improvement.
As soon as he entered number four he was cornered by his walrus of an uncle
"Boy we are leaving and will be back in late afternoon, understood" questioned Vernon
"Harry nodded and went upstairs to have a shower; he could hear the Dursleys leaving as he got into the shower.
Ten minutes later Harry left the shower and got dressed he was going downstairs to make himself some breakfast when he saw the post on the floor he picked it up and carried it to the kitchen leaving it on the table.
Harry quickly made himself some food and started to eat thinking about how his lessons with the order would be
Harry was just thinking about the difference between Snapes lessons and the lessons he would have with Dumbledore 'I guess me and Dumbledore won't be trying to kill each other at least,,, but then again…' when something caught his eye that made him jump… one of the letters in the post had
Urgent Notice
Regarding Hazel Dursley
Harry tore the envelope open and began to read
Dear Mr/Mrs Dursley
Going straight to the point, Hazel Dursleys adopted parents died in a car crash four days ago, Hazel is in a serious condition but is now stable.
Hazel is now 4 years old and will need any and all family she can get
We request that you come to visit your daughter and if you would like to re-adopt her or to send her to an orphanage the necessary forms are enclosed.
Dutifully Yours
Z. Camision
Harry sat there not knowing what was happening… he re-read the letter five times before he understood, he understood what the Dursleys had done to HIS COUSIN, he was angry… Very Angry anything that was made out of glass in the kitchen shattered… everything else began to shake violently.
"She must be a witch,,, that's the only reason… why?... I swear she'll be happy she won't live with them…" Harry sat there waiting for them to come home and when they did…
For now he used a copying charm on all the papers because he was definitely going to adopt her… he didn't know how or care how but he would do it, he'd never let anyone else do what the Dursleys did to him.
Four hours later the door opened and what the Dursleys saw would give them nightmares for months to come. There was a reason that the prophecy had said that Harry was the only one that could bring Voldemort down and the reason was very clear to the Dursleys.
Harry Potter was standing in the doorway with his wand aimed right between Vernon Dursleys eyes.
Usually the Dursleys would have screamed in protest and in anger at his behaviour, but the look in his eyes it was like a man possessed he was angry, very angry and ready to kill and right now he wanted them dead, and that scared them shitless.
"What is this" Harry hissed with barely controlled rage, while holding up the letter. Harry stepped back as he handed the letter to Petunia.
Petunia quickly read through it and visibly paled, she handed the letter to Vernon, who read through it.
"So what boy! This has nothing to do with you" Declared Vernon
"What has it got to do with me" Harry said levitating his uncle into the air "IT BLOOKY WELL HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH ME!!!"
"WE DON'T WANT ANYMORE FREAKISHNESS IN OUR FAMILY, WE HATE YOUR KIND AND ALWAYS WILL" yelled Petunia
"Don't you even care that she's your daughter?" asked Harry
"Any child of ours is not ever going to be a freak DO YOU HEAR ME BOY" screamed Vernon
Harry stared at them for a moment
"Your pathetic" he said as he walked up to his room, letting his uncle fall into an undignified heap on the floor.
'I will get her she will grow up knowing who she is… what should I do now? I have to go meet her… I need to contact Dumbledore"
Harry looked around for Hedwig but realised that she was not there and was probably out hunting
"There's nothing I can do right now so I may as well get some sleep" Harry mumbled to himself
Harry lay in bed for what seemed like hours not knowing what to do but eventually leaned over and decided to take the dreamless sleep potion a day early he didn't think he could handle another round with Tom today…
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
"Ahh Potter what a pleasant surprise" said Tom
"How… I… Had dreamless sleep potion?" stammered Harry
"Do you really think that that could possibly stop me" questioned Tom
"Your pathetic Tom, I will kill you" Harry said with conviction
"Honestly Potter do you really think you can stop me? Stop me from killing everyone you care about? Could you stop me from killing your parents? Cedric? Black? Your weak Potter and the only way you can stop it is by joining me" replied Tom
"The only thing that will make me weak would be joining you! Tom how many times have you tried to kill me because I'm beginning to lose count, ok here we go Halloween, first year, second year, forth year and fifth year! That's five times, five times I've stopped you and five times you couldn't kill a child… your pathetic…"Harry retorted
"ENOUGH CURCIO!!!" screamed Tom
Harry screamed in pain as the curse hit him. Tom held the curse for 26 minutes before he relented, Tom could literally feel Potters mind beginning to melt.
"Potter you've had your chance now its enough no more…" said Tom
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Harry woke up to the sound of sirens and the feeling of the house shaking
"Tom must have really hit me bad" Harry said as he reached for pain relieving potion and drank it down in one gulp as he drank it, he heard banging at his door slowly getting up and grabbing his wand to unlock the door Harry realised the alarms was not in his head and quickly unlocked the door knowing that the people that were knocking were the Dursleys because wizards would have unlocked the door with a simple alohomora
"Boy what's going on!" screeched Petunia
"What have you done now" yelled Dudley
"Death Eaters we have to try escape" Harry said as he turned towards Hedwig and tying the emergency letter he had previously written onto her leg
Death Eaters
Harry J. Potter
"Hedwig go to Grimwald place and stay there until I get there ok? Stay safe and out of sight" Harry quickly sent Hedwig out the window while casting a dillusionary charm on her.
Quickly turning to the two Dursleys Harry said "Let's get downstairs quickly we have to leave" Harry said
Harry with a sweep of his wand had all his things tightly packed into his trunk while he quickly grabbed his broomstick and shrunk his trunk and put it into his pocket.
"Lets go" Harry quickly ran downstairs while the two Dursleys ran into the kitchen the front door was blasted off its hinges.
Harry knew that they were in a very bad situation he was stuck on the stairs with hardly any room to dodge any incoming spells and the Dursleys were stuck in the kitchen. Harry quickly cast a Portego spell expecting an attack he wasn't disappointed because as soon as he cast the spell 5 Death Eaters rushed in, Harry heard a loud explosion from outside but concentrated on what was in front of him and quickly cast three stunning spells but before they even reached their targets there were 5 killing curses flying towards him,
Harry realised then that he had no place to dodge, duck or jump… he would get hit no matter what… It was over…
"Oh Shit!"
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Albus Dumbledore was in his office with Amelia Bones and CornIlias Fudge when a Siren went of in the room, Right there, right then Dumbledore knew that if he did not act quick enough that their only hope may be lost… Harry Potter may die…
"Albus what's happening!" asked Amelia
"Dumbledore…" said Fudge
"QUICKLY GET EVERY AUROR TO HARRY POTTER NOW!" screamed Dumbledore at his two guests, they where so much in shock that they ran out of the office trying to apparate to the ministry to comply with Dumbledores order "Fawkes quickly give the red feather to the order now!" Dumbledore grabbed onto Fawkes tail "first take me to Grimwald Place"
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Albus Dumbledore hurried down the street from Mrs Figgs rushing to get to number four as soon as possible he had to be there for Harry for the World…
Dumbledore could see a congregation of 20 or so death eaters trying rush into the house but Dumbledore knew that there were more inside…
Quickly levelling his wand Dumbledore sent his most powerful explosive curse with as much power as he could to take out all 20 or so death eaters, the spell did his job and the Death eaters there were no longer a problem.
Dumbledore rushed in just in time to see five killing curses flying towards Harry…
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Harry knew it was over, all time had stopped, looking at the curses coming at him he realised that he didn't care anymore… his emotions were spent… he had enough and now finally he could experience peace…
Harry was now feeling what was known in the Wizarding world as burnout, magic and emotion go hand in hand for example when accidental magic is released and when a witch or wizard experience a total emotional burnout their magic retracts into their core until they have recovered.
Harry watched as the spell's came nearer and nearer, he watched his life pass before his eyes realising all his mistakes realising how much people still need him, but he was going to fail them just like he failed everybody else, it was too late…
After what seemed like an age the spell finally hit him, he was numb… so numb…
CRACK!
Something inside him broke, for a moment he felt whole, complete, even peaceful and then…
Everything seemed to have stopped, it was as if time was holding its breath and waiting. Suddenly for a second everything was pulled towards him as if he were a black hole and then…
BOOM!
Everything exploded outwards everything in a 20 meters radius of Harry was obliterated…
Pain…
So much pain… it was unbelievable, he was in so much pain that a thousand cruciatus curses would only be a tickle compared to this…his body was being torn apart every cell of his body screamed in agony, he couldn't think, breath or move there was only pain, pain for millenniums' it was too much…
Harry screamed, a blood curdling scream, a scream so loud that it forever imprinted itself in the memory of anyone who heard it…
And then it stopped and Harry Potter seemed to have stopped to exist…
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
Albus Dumbledore could only watch in shock, he had never seen anything like this it… it was unbelievable
When the curse hit Harry everything had been pulled towards him, and Dumbledore just knew that he had to get everyone he could away.
In a flash he had pointed his wand at the two Dursleys guessing that the father was a work and summoned them towards him once they were close enough Dumbledore blasted his magic outwards to push them as far as possible from Harry.
BOOM!
He was right… a huge sphere of pure white magic that Dumbledore could not even dream of comprehending its immense power, exploded around Harry and then blasted outwards destroying everything in its path and finally it stopped, only leaving an echo of a inhuman blood curdling scream of Harry Potter…
Albus Dumbledore, the infallible leader of the light side was afraid. Not because he could not see Harry, not because their only hope seemed to have blinked out of existence but because of how much power he had felt his mind was in momentary shock.
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
In every Ministry around the world every piece of equipment that measured anomalies in the Earths magical atmosphere pointed towards Little Whinneing, Surrey and then shattered into millions of pieces.
Sosososososososososososososososososososososososo
At the same time Harry disappeared Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Ginny Weasley, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, Susan Bones and Blaise Zabini all fell unconscious…
