Hey everyone, this is the second chapter to Jesters Jest. No one has reviewed me yet so I am sad. Anyways, I have been working on this for a bit and I want to know what you think. My goal is also to get to 5000 words by the end of this week. I hope I can do it. And if you have any ideas of where this story could go, feel free to share. Now, on to the story.
----------------------------------------------J.J.---------------------------------------------
"Talking"
"YELLING"
"Thinking, writing, visions, and famous stuff"
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or any of its characters. If I did I would not be living with my parents.
AN: I do own all plots and characters I make though.

Jaspers Jest
Chapter 2
----------------------------------------------J.J.---------------------------------------------
Anger, hate, sadness, fear, all these emotions are going through me all because of me. "I failed to save Sirius, I couldn't keep my friends safe, I couldn't even avenge him. Why. WHY. All because of some stupid prophesy some old fraud made. Thinking back, maybe it wasn't just her fault…"
-------------------------------Secret Flash-back Spell #1-------------------------------
'The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches. born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies . and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not . and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives . the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies .'
"Sir, I don't under stand."
"Well Harry, the prophecy refers to you and Voldem…"
"NOT THAT DUMBLEDORE! I UNDERSTAND THE DAMNED PROPHECY! WHAT I CANT UNDERSTAND IS WHY YOU DIDN'T TELL ME THE PROPHECY BEFORE!?"
"Well Harry, I didn't think you were ready. You were breaking school rules constantly and you…"
"I ONLY BROKE THE RULES BECAUSE YOU WERN'T DOING YOUR JOB! AND BESIDES, WHO ARE YOU TO DECIDE WHEN I AM READY FOR SOMETHING OR NOT!?"
"I am your headmaster Harry. I know what is best for you. And besides, if you hadn't run off to the ministry, Sirius would still be alive. And after this little outburst, I think it would be best if you went home early and remember to stay inside. Voldomort is after you.."
I looked at Profess… no not professor, Mr. Dumbledore, and I mean really looked at him. I saw an old man, but I also saw someone who always got their way. I saw a manipulator, and I saw someone who lost my trust. "Sir, you are the head master of a SCHOOL! You are NOT the boss of the world, and you can't tell me what to do outside of school!"
"You don't have a choice Harry. It is for the greater good."
I couldn't take any more of this. I ran out of Dumbledore's office and ignored his yelling at me to come back. I ran to the first place that came to mind, the hospital wing.
-----------------------Secret Flash-back Spell #2--------------------------
I made it to the hospital wing and heard some quiet talking through the door. I was still angry at Dumbledore but because of his behavior, I decided to listen to what was being said.
Inside the hospital wing
"Ron, I can't believe Potter."
"I know what you mean Gin. I mean, come on, he dragged us to the ministry and we all got injured."
"Exactly my point Ron"
"What are you guys talking about?!" I heard Neville exclaim. "Went with Harry willingly!"
"I agree with Neville." I heard Luna say dreamily. "I don't know what has gotten into you two but you have a lot of wrackspurts around your heads"
"We didn't ask you two for your input squib and loony." I heard Ginny growl.
"And besides" Ron said "if it wasn't for Potter Hermione would be alright!"
"If it wasn't for Harry, Hermione would be dead because of your stupidity!" Neville yelled.
I had heard enough. I started opening the infirmary doors when Ron yelled one last thing that just set me off.
"Well at least Dumbledore pays me for being Potters friend. And I was promised head boy and Quidditch captain if I keep spying on the famous Boy-Who-Lived, while you two loyal lions stick with the SPOILED BRAT!"
'So that was it' I thought 'Ron was in it only for the fame and money' My rage at Dumbledore came with a vengeance, but I was determined to keep it inside till I was standing in front of the traitorous Weasleys.
I walked through the doors and saw everyone red faced and angry. I walked up to Ron and asked him a question. "Ron, are you a real friend."
I watched as his face turned purple and his Weasley temper flare. He yelled "WHO WOULD WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND!?" and that was enough for me. I curled my hand, pulled it back, and punched the traitorous bastard so hard in the mouth that two teeth fell out and he hit the floor like a Lawyer hitting pavement. (AN: sorry, couldn't resist.)
I turned around and walked out the door, ignoring the little red haired that was screeching at me. I was tired of all the betrayal; First Dumbledore, then Ron and Ginny. I had enough, so I did the only thing I could think of… I ran. I ran through the halls, down, the stair cases, through the entrance doors, and right into the Forbidden Forest.
-----------------------Secret Flash-back Spell Release--------------------------
So here I am, running through the pain and emotions. I have been running for over thirty minutes and I was getting really tired. I started walking and eventually came to a stop next to a tree that must have been over 500 feet tall. When I came to a stop, I did the thing that anyone as tired as me would do… I fell flat on my face. I was just so tired that I just didn't care if one of the angry beasts of the forest came to eat me.
Five minutes later I hear the "SNAP" of a tree branch breaking. "Ok" I thought "maybe I do care if an animal eats me." I hear the thump, thump, thump of something coming closer to me. I tried to run but realized that I had already run my self to exhaustion. There was only one thought going my head at that moment "FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, OH SHIT I AM GONNA' DIE!" The thumps stopped right in front of me. I looked up with my remaining energy and saw something I did not expect. It was an older teen with green eyes, a white jester hat with silver bells and a creepy, bone chilling smile that was filled with madness.
