It's been way too long and I am very very sorry.

hpfan4everandeverChapter 19- Glad I have a friend in the 'I Hate Zacharias Smith Club'! I like spooky endings, too.
hpfan4everandeverChapter 20- Funny, but I laughed while I wrote it.
Rosygirl- Me too. You just can't go without him there.
Chapter 21
Disclaimer- I own no HP characters. JKR does.
Harry awoke to see four heads staring at him. It was a bit creepy. Everyone jumped when Harry opened his eyes. Then the action began.
Lily began with potions. "Drink this first... no this one will be better. Then drink this one... good. How are you feeling?" she asked as she handed him another potion.
"Um... tired. And a little sore." The statement immediately caused a reaction. Potions.
"Oh, then have this. This might help too, because I bet you have a headache. Try this, also."
"Lily, please stop." James said weakly. "So Harry, how are ya doin'? Not well, I bet." James turned his attention to his wife, who was angry at being interrupted. "Instead of potions, Lily, how about we let him, well I don't know, sleep?" Lily nodded her head.
"Sweet dreams... that reminds me. Have a Dreamless Sleep Potion." Harry drank it and she smiled. "Good, now get some rest." All four of the people left the room and went into the hall to talk. (Not very smart; they could be overheard).
"We need to go to Dumbledore and talk to him. And we need to tell his friends that he's okay." suggested Remus.
"Well, I bet Dumbledore already knows, because he's just creepy in that way. Also, I bet Fred and George already told the whole Gryffindor Tower that Harry was okay." said Sirius.
"Too right. But we can still go to Dumbledore to see his suspicions as to whom kidnapped Harry. Then we can swing by Gryffindor Tower and see if they want to come visit Harry later." said James.
They walked up to Dumbledore's office.
"Ah, I was wondering when I would be seeing you. I trust Harry is well?" That was apparently not the right thing to say to the group.
"Oh haha Dumbledore. How amusing. You were wondering when we would come, but for the time Harry was missing, you decided to sit on your lazy ass and do nothing!" shouted James, who was red from anger.
"Yeah, all I saw him doing this past week was pace around and acting like he could give a damn about Harry. You are pa- the- tic." yelled Sirius.
"Dumbledore, why didn't you interrogate the staff with your stupid and creepy Occlumens? I bet we could have gotten him back sooner. But nooo, you had to be Mr. Nice Guy and respect everyone's privacy. I bet one of the staff took him and you're not willing to find out who, because you're thinking ' Thank God he came back or my ass would be on fire.' " That was Remus. Normal, nice, understanding Remus just yelled like a madman. Everyone was standstill for a moment until Dumbledore spoke.
"You are all right and wrong on some accounts. I should have interrogated the staff. I should have looked for him myself. But never say that I do not care for that boy, because I do. I care for that boy very much and he should not have to go through any of this. You are right by saying I should have looked for him when he first went missing, but I did not. And I had no reason not too. I am sorry."
The group turned on their heels and walked up to Gryffindor Tower without a word of goodbye or ' Apology Accepted' to Dumbledore. They said the password and walked inside.
"Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, and Ginny: Come here please." called Lily. They all assembled within a matter of seconds.
" Is he okay?"
"Will he live?"
"Where was he?"
"Will he come to classes soon?"
They were cut off by James. "Yes, he will be okay. We don't know where he was. As for classes, that's up to him."
"You can come visit him now if you want to." said Lily. The group followed the adults into the small room.
Harry was asleep when they walked in and Sirius ' accidentaly ' woke him up by dropping a vase he just happened to conjure.
"Hi everybody..." Harry was cut off by a group hug.
"Oh Harry, everyone was so worried. We were scared you were, you know, dead." said Ginny, who was crying.
"Harry, by the way, we now have an illegal Defense Against the Dark Arts club called the DA. You're boss of it." said Hermione.
"Well, it seems like I've missed a lot." said Harry. "Okay, you're probably wondering where I was, so I'll tell you. I was at Voldemort's headquarters. I don't know where it is. Also, I was kidnapped by Umbridge, who is a Death Eater." The facts were met by silence, which was later broken by Remus, who seemed to be going mad that day.
"If you'll excuse me, a colleauge of mine has some explaining to do." he growled. "Anyone wanna come?" The four adults jumped up and said they would be back soon.
The children just watched them leave. Then they pulled out a chess board and bet if Umbridge would be teaching tomorrow or not. Most of them said not.
Author's Notes-
Corny ending. Oh my God.
Next chapter, I'm telling you this now, will have Harry going to classes and Umbridge's punishment.
I'll see if I can manage that.
Review Please!
... or I'll cry. You don't want to see me cry, do you? I bet over 40 of you just thought yes. How rude of you.
