Authors Note: Thanks for all the wonderful reviews. I know some of you are concerned about the 90 spankings Severus gave Harry in the last chapter. Severus said that Harry's punishment tripled, a regular punishment for his age of almost sixteen would be 30 spankings, multiply 30 by three and you get 90. Sorry if there was any confusion.

The two men finally got back to Grimuald palace

" You are to go straight to your room young man" Severus said

" Yes sir" Harry said gloomy

They got inside the building and into #12 Grimuald palace and Mrs. Weasly took one look at Harry and screamed

Harry still looked like he just been mugged

" What on earth happened to you? Who attacked you... Ron go get Harry some ice... Ginny get a washcloth, Hermione get some healing potions... Fred, George... oh yah there not here" Mrs. Weasly said

" Mrs. Weasly I'm fine, I don't need ice and the blood is dry so I don't need a washcloth, healing potions would be good though" Harry said

" What happened" Mrs. Weasly asked again

Harry was about to say something but Severus interupted

" Harry decided to get in a fight with his whale of a cousin Dudley, he is now paying the concequences by being grounded" Severus said

Hermione came back with a bunch of healing potions

" This one will get rid of your black eyes, this one will make the open wounds better, this one get's rid of bruises that you can either see or not see, and this one get's rid of stings that might have come by being hit" Hermione said

" The only place that stings is my backside" Harry thought

Hermione handed the potions one at a time to Harry as he drank them feeling better that fast and finally he was about to take the stinging potion but Severus took it out of Hermione's hand first

" What the" Harry started

" You will not be taking this potion tonight" Severus said

" Why?" Harry asked

" Because you need to be taught a lesson, and there's only one place on your body that stings" Severus said with a glare

Harry's face turned red a bit

" Now it's time for you to go to your room" Severus said

" It's only 7:30" Harry protested

" And you're grounded to your room, now march young man" Severus said

Harry sighed and walked up the stairs to his and Ron's bedroom

It was a long night for Harry being couped up in his room

The next day Severus and Harry bid farewell to everybody in #12 Grimuald Palace and portkeyed to Severus's parents home
