Hey guys, uploads may start slowing down in the next week, I have exams coming up, but I'll still endeavour to get at least one a day done. Oh right, yeah, I don't own this stuff, JKR does.

Chapter 4

The Burrow was in uproar as they arrived back home, not only did Harry show a glimpse of what he was truly capable of, but the kicker was when he apparated away. When the Weasleys and Hermione arrived back to the Burrow, they found a note from Harry left on the kitchen table;

Hey guys,

Sorry about that. Don't worry about me, I'm safe I just want to stay out of Dumbles' clutches even if it is only for a day. I need to get my head around what happened. I'll see you all at platform nine and three quarters.

Harry

While the rest of the Weasleys could accept that Harry could look after himself more than adequately, Molly, was not willing to listen. "We have to get him back, it's not safe for him! Get Dumbledore searching for him." Arthur's response, was to just stupefy his hysterical wife. "Kids, have any of you got any idea where Harry might have gone?" Hermione, is the one to answer, "Well Mr Weasley, he did some research of thoughts, before he came here, and found that Professor Dumbledore had been hiding his parents' wills, and he also found that he was the last living of Godric Gryffindor. With being heir of Gryffindor, he inherited Gryffindor manor. He sent Dobby there to clean it up in case of emergencies. I think he might have gone there. But even Dumbledore won't get there, it's even more heavily warded than Hogwarts." Hermione was worried that she might have said too much and that Harry would see it as a betrayal.

Meanwhile, Harry was in Godric Gryffindor's own personal room of requirement, after reading Gryffindor's personal journal over the holidays, he knew that this room had a time lapse, He could, spend a month in here, and only an hour would pass in the real world. So that was what he was doing, he was going to train, and be ready for any bastard that crossed wands with him again. Harry had found that the voice in his head was in fact Gryffindor, who was going to help train Harry in the special powers that he had inherited, once Harry had mastered them however, the voice would disappear, and Harry would never here from Gryffindor again.

A week had passed inside the room of requirement, and Harry was laid flat on his back, chest heaving. He had set the room to provide twelve enemies for him to fight all at once, he had done it, but was seriously exhausted. "Young Harry, you are performing well, very well indeed. You have already mastered two of my skills, manipulation of fire and parseltongue. Yes Harry, know one, not even Salazar knew that I could speak to snakes. Your Headmaster, says Tom transferred it to you, he did not, it was me. On the topic of your headmaster, do not forgive straight away, but you must realise, he is only doing what he thinks is best, he is not a bad man." Harry was shocked, he never even stopped to think that Gryffindor would be able to speak to snakes, "Yes Harry, it is a very useful trait, the next skill I shall teach you, is how to manipulate wind, when you have mastered this, your fire will be even more deadly, you will be able to create tornadoes and my personal favourite, you'll be able to fly. Now though, quit stalling and give me 50 press ups".

A further 11months passed for Harry, and it was fair to say, he was ripped. His six foot 1 frame, with large chest , shoulders and washboard abs made him a very imposing figure indeed. Harry, could now use all his magical powers passed from Godric; fire, water, wind and parseltongue. Harry hadn't just learnt these though, Gryffindor, had been teaching Harry, DADA, Potions, Transfiguration and Charms. With the motivation of the old headmaster, Harry was progressing at an accelerated rate previously unseen. He was well above newt level in all subjects, and Godric expected Harry to become more powerful than all of the founders combined. Harry was currently working on his last task before he could leave the time lapse. Swords man ship. He was using the sword of Gryffindor himself, having been to taught to call it from anywhere. Harry wondered if Dumbledore had noticed it was missing yet. Harry was battling 5 opponents, ducking, diving, weaving, slicing, waiting for a sufficient opening to pounce. Harry's physical condition meant that he could go like this all day providing he didn't make any silly mistake. Harry waited, blocking a swing at his head while spinning away from one aimed at his chest, it carried on like this for five more minutes, until Harry found his opening, in an almighty swing, he took out two opponents, slicing through the head of one and clean through the chest of the one next two him. Now there were three left, and Harry wanted this ended quickly now, he moved like a whirlwind spinning behind the one to his left and slitting his throat, he ran directly at one, sliding underneath the swords swing and then buried his sword right under his ribcage. The last one Harry knocked him to the ground with a roundhouse kick to the knee and just beheaded him. "Harry, you have done well. You have the raw power of none I have ever seen, now you have the skills to use it. You're body is tuned to perfection, you can stand pain like no other, you truly are, the most powerful wizard in the world. But, I warn you, do not become complacent, while technically you could wipe the floor with anyone, remember, Tom Riddle is Slytherin's heir, what he lacks in power compared to you, he makes up for in cunning and guile, he may not have your talent. But he is clever, very clever. But, alas, it is time for me to leave you, one final piece of advice, challenge Dumbledore to an honour duel, he shall see you have power beyond recognition and shall start to respect you. Farewell young Harry, you have been my favourite pupil, I'm sure I shall see you in the afterlife in many many years time."

Everyone was settled in the great hall, but many were worried, worried for Harry, he had not shown up at Platform nine and three quarters. Hermione in particular was worried, 'What if he's been captured, how can the Headmaster stand up there going on and on with that twinkle in his eye when Harry, the most important person to the wizarding world is missing!' "as many of you have no doubt noticed, Mr Potter is not in our midst-" The doors of the great hall slammed open, and there stood, an exact replica of the sixteen year old Godric Gryffindor. "Sorry I'm late guys, do you fancy some entertainment? I Lord of Hogwarts Harry James Potter-Black-Gryffindor, do challenge you, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore to an honour duel." Gasps were heard around the hall and comments like, "Certainly knows how to make an entrance" and from the girls, even a few of the guys "Wow, he's gorgeous" and "look at his body". Draco Malfoy however, decided to make the usual arse of himself "Lord of Hogwarts, Gryffindor. HA! Bullshit." Harry turned very slowly to Malfoy, "Malfoy I suggest if you don't sit down and shut up I shall challenge you to a duel also" Malfoy flushed, "Fuck you Potter your nothing." Harry whipped out his wand as fast as lightening and had him hanging upside down ankles tied together and his hair turned Gryffindor red and gold in one simple flick of his wand. Malfoy was shouting something but it couldn't be heard, Harry had also put up a silencing charm around him. The hall sat in stunned silence at the ease of which Harry Potter-Black-Gryffindor had done that, they sensed he could do it wandlessly, blindfolded and with his hands tied behind his back. Which of course Harry knew he could. "So Dumbles, fancy it? Let's gives these guys a welcoming feast they'll never forget." Harry thought he saw a flicker of fear behind those bright blue eyes. "Harry I think we need to talk about-" he stopped when he saw Harry's aura flare a bright gold that bathed the whole hall in an almost angelic light. "No Albus, we do it now or do you have no honour!" Dumbledore sighed "As you wish my Lord".

Ron looked confused, "Hermione, what's going on, Dumbledore looks scared of Harry, and called him 'my lord' what the hell is going on?" Hermione was trying to get her head around things herself. "Well Ronald, Dumbledore is scared of Harry, can you not feel his power, and Harry is angry, you know what Harry can do with magic when he's angry. As for Dumbledore calling Harry Lord, you heard Harry, he's Lord of Hogwarts, technically, he could be headmaster right now if wanted. Harry is also head of 2 of the most influential families in the country, and with the title of Lord Gryffindor, he is head of THE most influential family this country has known". Ron took all this on board, he was worried for Dumbledore, 'surely Harry won't kill him will he? It's perfectly legal in an honour duel, but even so, he wouldn't kill Dumbledore'. Harry had no intentions of killing Dumbledore, he just wanted to give him fair warning of what he could do. "As you wish Harry, who will be your second" Harry shrugged "Colin, you fancy it?" Colin almost wet himself "Yes Harry, yes of course, can I get take a picture of you after. Will you sign, please, please, I can't wait to hell my parents." Harry chuckled, "Sure thing Colin. Who's yours Albus?" "Severus." The two teachers walked down from the head table and down the middle aisle which was wide plenty wide enough for a duel. "Harry, if I may, what if the students get hit by a stray spell?" "they won't" Snape, looked dumbfounded. "Oh please Potter, does your arrogance know no bounds, even the Headmaster has been known to mis-aim occasionally, so you certainly will." "Snivellous, shut up you knob, I have a erected a shield around us, go ahead fire a spell right at Miss Granger there." Sure enough, just before the spell collided, it fizzled out in front of her face. "Satisfied?" asked Harry with a smirk. A very subdued Snape nodded. "So Harry, are you ready? Yes, then lets bow."

Dumbledore fired the first spell, which was an overpowered stunner, sending 5 strands of magic, one after the other at various parts of Harry's body, it is a very effective spell when fighting normal people. But Harry isn't normal, with a wave of his non wand hand, they turned back around and raced at Dumbledore at double their original speed. No one could believe what they were seeing. Dumbledore managed to avoid the spell by a whisker. Harry followed up with a strong bludgeoner, "Protego Maximus" it absorbed the spell and the duel continued, had Harry really wanted, he could have smashed straight through the shield, but the people wanted entertainment, that's what they would get. Harry snapped off 3 quick stunners, which Dumbledore just about weathered with his shield. The duel carried on like this for the next five minutes, Dumbledore was tiring under the strain of defending himself from Harry's onslaughts. Harry on the other hand was doing all this very casually. But he decided to end it. He transfigured one of the suits of armour on the wall into Gryffindor's lion and put it under a compulsion charm to only put Dumbles down, not kill him, but immobilise him. When the crowd saw the lion pounce, there were gasps all round. The Slytherins though, were torn, they had no love for Harry or Dumbledore, but were excited about having Dumbledore put down by a student. However, they were not looking forward to their head of house having to face Potter, they knew, Snape and Harry hated each other and that Harry could probably get quite nasty if he needed to. As the lion was in mid-leap Dumbledore fired a slicing hex at the great lion. Harry responded, by conjuring a metal shield which deflected the curse back at the duelling wards. The lion hit Dumbledore hard in the chest and knocked and held him down, with his enormous jaws covering Dumbledore's throat. "Do you yield?" Dumbledore knew he was defeated, "Yes my Lord, I yield." Harry nodded and turned to Snape, "Snivle! It's your turn." Snape took Dumbledore's place, and faced Harry. They bowed, and with a simple wave of his hand, Harry had Snape bound in ropes, robes turned pink, his haircut, and turned red. 'Well this year might actually be quite fun' thought Harry. Harry left the Great Hall to tumultuous applause, vanishing the Lion and the robes that bound Snape as he went, 'He can keep the robes and the hair'.

Harry arrived at Gryffindor tower and bowed to the fat lady, "My Lady, how are you this year, looking forward to the first years forgetting the password?" the fat lady smiled, "Why yes Lord Gryffindor, I am very well. I am glad you have finally discovered and accepted your heritage. Now that you are Lord of Hogwarts, the portraits shall do your bidding and assist where they can. Also you no longer need the password for anything. Any rooms you need to enter, you shall not be asked for a password, they shall simply open for you. I believe you already know where the Slytherin common room is do you not?" Harry chuckled, "Yes my Lady, that I do, I think I'm going to have some fun this year. Goodbye for now." Harry walked through the portrait and sat in his favourite chair next to the fire, waiting for his friends to arrive.

Okay guys, there you go. Please please please give me some reviews. Cheers
