Hello Everyone, Here I am again. Remember I don't own Harry Potter or its characters. All the rights are from J.K Rowling. I hope you like my story. But enough talking, here is the story. ENJOY
Chapter 10: talking and healing
The next morning Harry woke up at 6 A.M. He said hallo to Hedwig and Shadow and give them something to eat. He went to his bathroom and refreshed himself. He tried to comb his hair, but it was spiky like always. He had now black should-length hair with dark red highlights in his hair and his points were dark green. His eyes were the deepest emerald green color you ever have seen. He walked back to his bedroom and picked out his clothes and school robe for the day. He took his school pants with a dark green t-shirt and his school robe above it.
Shadow hissed to harry
{Harry, maybe it is wise to show the two other humans your scars and tell them your story. You told them never how bad it was. I think they deserve to know}
Harry thought about it for a few minutes and hissed back
{ I don't know. I don't want them to do anything rash and stupid what could get them in trouble and I don't want their pity}
{ it is better if you tell them yourself, because maybe they will found out someday and then they will feel betrayed, because you never told them about it. They also probably would get very mad at you. That is who they are}
{ oké, I will tell them}
Ron, Hermione, can you come to the living room in about five minutes. I need to show you something important.
Oké, mate answered Ron
Yes answered Hermione
Harry walked out of his room, when he had put on his pants and he took the rest of his clothes to the living room. He waited for about five minutes when Ron and Hermione showed up in the room. They both went to sit on one couch across from Harry, whose was seated on a comfy fauteuil.
"What do you need to show us, mate?" asked Ron a little concerned.
Harry looked like he had a internal struggle with himself. He stood up and showed them his back.
"You both know that my life by the Dursleys wasn't perfect. I would like to show you what my lovely family has given me over the years I lived with them."
He hissed a spell in parseltongue, which cancelled the glamour on his body to hide his scars and he heard two gasps behind him.
He knew what they saw. The word 'FREAK' craved in his skin with a blunt knife from his right shoulder to his left hip, multiple scars from the whip, belt and belt buckle and multiple burns from the stove and when his aunt throw cooking water on his back.
Then he burned around. His front wasn't much better than his back. He heard again two gasps from the shock. Again he had multiple scars from the whip, belt and belt buckle and some nasty burns. Especially the one burn on his stomach. It covered his stomach and a part of his chest. Aunt petunia had drop the inside of the fryer on him, when uncle Vernon held him down.
The silence which followed lasted exactly 30 seconds before Ron's magic flared up and Hermione began crying. Harry put his glamour back on and began sending waves of calmness to Ron and Hermione.
He went to the couch where Ron and Hermione sat and sat between them with Hermione on his right and Ron on his left. He put his right arm around Hermione and hold her close to his body, so she was crying on his shoulder. With his left hand he sent the calming waves directly into Ron to prevent him from destroying the whole room.
"Why?... Why didn't you tell us? We could have helped you. We are your friends. Why didn't you trust us with this?" said Ron breaking down at the end.
"I was the hero, their hero. I was the hero who defeated Voldemort and when he came back to life the hero who was supposed to defeat him again. What do you think would have happened if the Wizard World knew I was a little scared and abused boy instead of a hero? A boy who never even knew about that world and the fact he was a wizard and felt he was a burden, a waste of space. I didn't want their concern, their pity, their hate. Besides Dumbledore wouldn't have let me leave their house. He always said it was the safest place for me, but it wasn't. It may have protected me from the Death Eaters and Voldemort, but it never protected me from the verbal and physical abuse from my lovely family. "
"You don't deserve that, the hell no one deserve that" said Hermione still crying
"Don't worry about it. I will never have to go back to that place. They can never hurt me again, besides I emancipated, so I am legally an adult now. I can choose my own house now and my scars don't hurt."
"most of the time" he whispered behind that, thinking no one had heard him, but Hermione heard him and said
"most of the time, What do you mean 'most of the time'. Do your scars still hurt you, didn't you go to the doctor of some healer?" shouted Hermione
"No, I wasn't allowed to go to the doctor and I was embarrassed to go to a Healer in the Wizard World. They only hurt when it is very cold or if I make some weird movement, then they hurt a little. I just need to make a potion for it this time."
"No" said Ron
"You will not do that. We will go to Snape and there you will show him your scars and then he can make sure the Dursleys are punished legally. He is now our Head of House and I think he is a great ally to have for this." Said Ron. Hermione agreed with Ron
"Is this all, Harry" asked Hermione
"please, don't asked. I can't talk about it" pleaded Harry
"Oke, Harry, we won't force you to tell us now, but you need to tell someone, oké?"
Harry nodded
After 20 minutes they had convinced Harry it was the best plan. Harry looked at this watch and saw it was now 6:40.
"Do you know where professor Snape's quarters are, guys?" asked Harry
Ron and Hermione both shook their head. But then it came to Harry. He called to Hogwarts
"Hogwarts, can you hear me?"
"Yes, Harry. What can I do for you on this fine morning?"
"I was wondering if you could me where professor Snape quarters where and if he is there?"
"I can tell you he is in his rooms and he still already awake. I will update a map of me in your heads, so you will know everything there is to know about me"
And the trio felt a surge of magic going to them. When it was over, a map of Hogwarts with all the secret rooms and corridors on it, with the passwords and just all the places with passwords was downloaded in their head.
Harry used the secret transportation system from Salazar to transport him, Ron and Hermione to the portrait guarding Snape's quarters. Hermione knocked at the frame and they only had to wait ten minutes before the frame opened and they saw Severus Snape standing behind it.
"Mister Potter and Weasley and Miss Granger, how may I help you on this fine morning?"
"Can we come in, Professor. We need to tell you something personal"
"Of course, come in" and he stepped aside to allow them entrance.
This rooms were not what the trio had expected from the man. They had expected overall green and silver, but the walls were a darkish blue with green and brown tints in it. The floors were the same. Snape lead them to a couch and sat himself in a chair across of them.
"What do you need to tell me?" he asked
Ron and Hermione looked at Harry and said "Why don't you show him, Harry?"
Harry stood up, removed his t-shirt and turned his back to his professor. Snape began developing a feeling in his gut that he wasn't going to like this news. Harry chanted the spell again in parseltongue and felt his glamour fall.
Severus couldn't believe his eyes. The boy-who-lived, the prince of Slytherin was abused and badly. He was shocked to his core. He stood up and traced each scar with his fingers. Then Harry turned around and again he was shocked with the extent of the scars on Harry's body.
"How, Why, Who?" Severus asked with gritted teeth
"My lovely family tried to beat the magic out of me, but it didn't work. They punished me for everything that went wrong in the house and on their jobs. I just was a burden, a waste of space, a freak for them and they hated me. I showed it a few minutes again to Ron and Hermione and they told me the smartest thing to do was to go to you. The scars still hurt sometimes, so can you help me to make the pain go away?" said Harry with a small voice on the end.
"I need to sit down" and he sat down with a flop. He put his head in his hands and began crying.
Severus. P.O.V
"How could I have failed him, the son of Lily. Oh, lily, will you ever forgive me. Please forgive me."
normal
The three looked shocked to the normal stern man. Harry recovered the first. He went to the man and put his hand on his chin, so he had to look him in the eyes. Severus looked to Harry with tears in his eyes and said
"I am sorry for not protecting you, please forgive me"
Harry uncurled the man and sat on his lap. He put his arms around the man waist and hugged him, putting his head on the man's shoulder. He said
"Don't worry about it. You didn't knew about it. Please don't cry. You don't have to be sorry and you have done nothing where you need to ask forgiveness for"
The man hugged harry back and continued crying softly. Ron and Hermione came to Severus and Harry and also gave Severus a hug.
After a few minutes they uncurled and sat down back on their seats. Severus was calmed down by now.
"We need to inform Poppy, the other head of houses and the headmaster of this. Give me a moment" and he walked to his fireplace. He fire called first the headmaster, then Minerva, Pomena, Filius and at last Poppy to tell them he needed them in his quarters for a emergency. After a few moments they all came through the fire place
"What do you need, my boy?" said Albus with a twinkle in his eyes
"It has come to my attention that one of my students need medical help and I wanted you and the other heads to be there, when Poppy examined my student."
When Poppy heard that, she went to full nurse mode and asked
"where is my patient, Severus. Is it severe?"
Severus pointed to his couch and the professors and Poppy followed his finger to the trio, whom were still sitting on the couch. Harry stood up and walked to the adults. The adults all gasps when they saw the condition of his body. The woman all had tears in their eyes and the twinkle in Albus' eyes was gone.
"What happened, my boy?" asked Albus sadly.
"I can show you if you like" answered Harry
"How?" said Minerva
"You have to touch my scars and I will use my magic to show you my life and how it got these scars"
Everyone walked to Harry and laid a finger on one of his scars. Harry closed his eyes and the next moment let the others through his life till this day, except the fact he was from the future.
They saw how Harry was treated like a house elf, how he was made to cook from the age of four, how his uncle punished him if you drop something, Harry hunting, the punishments of his aunt, the abuse, the chores, how he was to be stupid for his family. They felt his fear of his family, his pain and his despair. The feeling of wanting to die. How he wished for someone to save him, to help me, to make a end to it all and then it was over.
the women were crying, albus sat down defeated like Severus and Filius, but Ron was mad, no he was furious. His magic flared up again and not able to deal with it, he transformed in a grey wolf. Harry looked at him and whispered calming words to him, while stroking his fur.
The adults were looking shocked at this. No one so young should be able to transform in a animal, but here a young boy had transformed in a wolf, while a other boy tried to calm him down. But it didn't work, so Harry had no choice, but to transform in his own wolf form and use his Alpha status to calm his Beta down. After 10 minutes he convinced Ron to change back human. Ron was looking sheepishly to the professors
"I am sorry. I just needed to blow some steam off"
"It is oké, we all feel that way, mister Weasley" said Pomena.
Poppy went to Harry and took a diagnostic scan of him. The list that came out of the wand was very long. It said

At this Hermione broke down. "So this was what you didn't want to tell us. He raped you"
But the tears were quickly replaced with anger. Her magic flared like Ron's earlier and again Harry had to calm someone down.
The adults where also close to lose control on their magic. They were furious.
Poppy began shouting almost every healing spell she knew on Harry and Severus gave him several potions to drink. When it was down, he sighed as he felt the pain leaving his body. It was a great feeling, don't being in pain all the time. He relaxed a little and sat down at the floor. Ron and Hermione almost directly sat next to him, comforting him with their presence.
"I will bring this to the ministry and they will punish the Dursleys for child abuse, I promise you that" said Albus
"We need to discuss a new guardian for you"
"I don't need one, when I went to Gringotts I read my parents' will and so I am emancipated. I am legally an adult, I have lived the last month in the Potter Manor with the house elves, but I would like to get to know my godfathers and godmothers a little better."
"Your godfathers and godmother, I didn't know you had multiple godfathers and godmothers" said Albus
"My father selected two and my mother selected two. My father choose Sirius Black and you, professor McGonagall and my mother choose Alice Longbottom and you, professor Snape"
Severus and Minerva were both shocked by this fact. They never knew this.
"I would love to get to know you better and I will accept my duty as godmother, if you accept it." Said Minerva
"Me too" answered Severus
"I accept"
"then in private you can call me Minerva"
"and me in private Severus"
"I also need to tell you something else. I found out that Sirius is innocent. Peter Pettigrew betrayed my parents. They switched from secret Keepers at the last minute and I have the memory to prove it." He took the vial out of his pocket and gave it to Albus.
Albus took the vial and said
"I will deliver it to the ministry personally, Harry. Your godfather will soon be free."
Harry looked at Severus and said
"Professor, I mean Severus, I mean Professor" stammered Harry
"It is Severus in private"
"Severus, I read my mum's journal and I read you were a death eater once."
Severus paled at this and looked afraid to Harry, but before he could say anything Harry continued
"I also know that you turned spy to save my mother. I found something in her journal. She was working on a potion and spell to make the dark mark away. She never got to finish it, but I did and so I am asking you if I can remove the dark mark of you"
At this a silence followed. Everyone, except Ron and Hermione, were too shocked to say anything.
"Harry, I don't deserve it." Said Severus with his head down
"Yes, you do. My mother forgive you and said she would get you free and so I will make her wish came true."
Albus said "Do it, my boy. You truly deserve it. You have paid for your actions, you are free."
Severus looked at Harry and saw the need to help him. He nodded and Harry took another vial out of his pocket. He walked to the potions master and stripped the man's left arm. There was it, a skull with a snake, the dark mark. Harry uncorked the vial and poured the potion on the dark mark and began chanting the spell in parseltongue. Again everyone, except Ron and Hermione, were shocked to found out that Harry was a parseltongue.
Severus felt a pain in his arm, so severe, he began whimpering at the pain. Harry saw it and began chanting faster until the dark mark was completely gone. Severus fell down and Harry fell also on his knees. He crawled to the man and looked at his arm. He had done it, it was really gone. He began sweating, he had almost emptied his whole magic reserve and he was fighting with himself to stay awake.
Hermione saw it and said " Go to sleep, Harry. You need the rest"
"but the classes?"
"You can't go. Your magic need time to recover. Sleep now"
And finally he listened. He fell asleep in the lap of his godfather Severus Snape.
His last thought before he lost himself in the darkness was
'I have finally found my happiness'
a.n note hallo everyone, I have a new chapter written. It is an extra long one, because I have some school exams in two weeks and I have to study hard. So I don't have time to write, so I thought of giving you an extra long one for this time. I hope that you like that. Remember I am not a native speaker of English. And I hope you sent more reviews to me.
I have a lot of positive reviews, so I will continue on his stream. Some people think Harry is too powerful, but I like it so, so sorry if that isn't your style of a story.
Have a nice day and enjoy.
