New Knowledge old friends

Remus Lupin, was not happy with the news about Harry. Minerva McGonagal, was livid. Albus had been gone all day. He told her he was going to retrieve Harry and get him back to his relatives.

When he arrived back at the castle Remus and Minerva were waiting for him. This wasn't going to be good. Even Fawkes turned his back on him.

Remus was first. "Albus, you had me stay away from Harry to keep him safe. I went to that muggle hospital...they almost killed the boy. I read his charts. They had to start his heart three times. He died Three Times Albus! He is not going back there for any reason! I may be a werewolf, but I am one of his chosen guardians. You were not! I may not be able to take him myself...the law precludes it but I can choose where he stays. It will not be with the Dursleys ever again!"

Before Albus could speak Minerva Started. "Remus brought copies of the medical records, Albus! Thirty two Broken bones improperly healed, never set. Liver and Kidney Damage, Dehydration, and extreme malnutrition. Yes Magic can fix it but why is it necessary...Because you refuse to listen to any one!

You will be lucky if you are still at this school come fall. This is the boy who lived. Do you think it will not get out. You set yourself up as his magical guardian...Have you checked on him at all. If you have why is he still there. Are you trying to kill him!"

"They are the only relatives he has." spoke Albus as he reached in the bottom drawer of his desk and pulled out his old wand. "There are blood wards on that house. I built them from Lilly's sacrifice. Its the only place he is safe."

Remus Stood Up And the Wolf was coming out.

"Safe, you call this safe! Petunia Hated Lilly, hated magic. They tried to kill that boy! I promised James and Lilly to protect him...I believed YOU! I see that belief was misplaced. Now you will relinquish his magical Guardianship to Minerva. You have not taken care of Harry...you have put him in mortal danger...and have the nerve to say you're keeping him safe! Do you think we are fools Albus?!"

I'm going to see Harry, Its time he knew the truth. The Muggles Have the Dursleys...Don't interfere Albus The deserve what they get. I have both sets of records. I had them input the data in there computers. You Could obliviate every one and all the evidence will remain. They are going down!"

"Here are the papers Ablus...It's time to sign them." Minerva Said. "He will not be ready...Its all part of his training!" replied Albus.

Minerva was getting more angry. "Training for what. Are you trying to make him the next Dark LORD! Do you remember Tom Riddle. This child has had a loveless life because of you...Do you think Killing him will train him. FOR WHAT ALBUS!?"

Albus signed the papers. If he only knew what was coming next.

The next Morning the owls started arriving.

The red envelopes were exploding around Albus right, left and center. Minerva had the Prophet.

The boy who lived Dieing in muggle hospital!

Attacked By his uncle!

Harry Potter, The Boy Who Lived. Has Been forced to live in an abusive home. He is regularly beaten, starved, and verbally abused. His Magical guardian Albus Dumbledore has known this has been happening, and allowed it. It was the Muggle authorities that saved our Savior. Albus showed up and left with out a single word spoken. Did he even care to ask what happened to his ward. Why was he left for six years in such an environment? We want to know?

Albus Dumbledore Had never considered this. That he would ever be questioned in any way. He is the great Dumbledore, defeater of Grindlewald, Supreme Mugwump, Head of the Wizengomot, and Headmaster of Hogwarts. How can they question me? Everything I do is for the Greater Good!

Remus Lupin was not having a good morning. At this moment he was face to barrel with a muggle shotgun.

He Knew the dog Growling at him was Sirius the Betrayer of Harry's Parents. How do you convince a muggle of this holding a weapon with a very itchy trigger finger. "I'm not here to take Harry. I'm a friend of his parents. There are some things you need to know, and so does he."

Padfoot came into view, and you could see Remus's eye color change, from a deep brown to an angry golden color. Harry was standing next to Padfoot.

"Get away from him Harry!" Remus was almost begging. Harry Ran His Hand over Padfoot. "Why, he saved me from that old man and the Grangers too? I would trust this Dog with my life." The Grangers are the first Grown ups that have been good to me. I would die for anyone in this family including Padfoot!

You tell me why I shouldn't trust him."

Harry Looked at Remus with a look of a man in his 40's that had walked through a war, not a seven year old boy. Harry pointed his wand at Remus and suddenly he was bound and couldn't move. Harry looked up at John Granger. "You can put the gun down, he isn't going to do anything."

They both turned to Remus. "Harry has a point, it's time to talk." Harry levitated Remus to a chair and dropped him in it.

Remus began slowly, "Harry, Your a wizard. Halloween night when you were one. A very bad wizard attacked your home. He killed your Mom and Dad. Padfoot was the one that betrayed your parents. He is not a dog he is a wizard." Harry raised his hand. I'm sorry Mr Remus, or should I call you Moony. Before I woke up in the hospital, I met my Mom and Dad. There was an ugly baby thing next to me. They told me everything. Do you remember Wormtail, Peter Petigrew, he was the secret keeper. He is alive, hiding somewhere as a rat." Harry looked at Padfoot. "Time to come out Sirius!" Harry was truly smiling for the first time in years. Harry continued. "Mom and Dad showed me lots of magic, So I could protect myself. They said I could easily pass my Newts. I've been training Hermione. They told me that when I woke up a special family would be there for me. Then told me to wait until I got you all together. We have a lot to do!"

John was to say a bit floored when Sirius transformed back into himself. He was wearing prison rags. He Sat down and said. "Thank Merlin the kids gave me a bath." That broke the ice and got everyone Laughing. Harry started again. "The First thing we need to do is go to Gringgotts. Remus you take me and the Grangers. Padfoot you have to come as the Dog for now. I'm to insist on a reading of there will! We go from there."
