Chapter 7b
Griphook's Fury
Harry sat on the floor with his two best friends crying his eyes out. "How did I not know, Hermione, I should have known this?" Hermione was shocked herself then steeled herself for more shocks.
"You should hear the rest. Harry, I know you are hurting now but being forewarned is being fore-armed. Even if the worse possible outcome is what we think it is going to be, it will prepare you."
Harry shuddered and stood up with Luna's and Hermione's help
Once again the projections of Lily and James Potter were smiling at him.
"Harry, we can only hope that my sister and her husband raised you to be the fine young man you are going to be. Dumbledore must be stopped, that fateful night, the grey lord paid us a visit, he looked terrified. He told us of Dumbledore's plans for you and how Dumbledore had murdered both his parents to fulfil the false prophecy. Then Dumbledore burst in the door of the home he had offered us. He crucio-ed Tom and came after us. I locked myself in the nursery with you and then I heard a thump on the floor below. I knew then I had to cast a runic shielding charm surrounding your cot. Dumbledore just obliterated them and then he asked me to step aside. I would not so he used the killing curse and suddenly I was watching him as a ghost cut the curse scar into your forehead. I watched horrified as he stood back and admired his handiwork then he looked at my dead body and smiled at his murder victim. He apparated then so I kissed your forehead and said my goodbyes. We love you Harry, we will always love you.
Be safe Harry, my son.
Harry whispered "I love the both of you, so much"
Luna and Hermione were in tears but they hugged Harry trying to keep him strong.
