[a/n0]From the humorous #177 polarbear20000's... Bugs & the Abominable Snowman is perfect. Cracked me up. Doubt Ron's brother would approve the name though. alix33... How hard can a foot and a bit shrunken troll really bite? How hard did Scabbers bite Ron? Is the little troll a male troll? I paused the scene a few times and the clothes suggest male. Doesn't seem like something a woman would wear that would more securely cover the breasts. magitech... proof Dumbles has truly gone off the deep end into batty land letting Gragner keep the Troll Hilarity aside it's not a horrible idea, and poetic justice. Don't forget her encounter with Grawp. He might have it pretty good barring such things as happened to Gulliver in Brobdignag.
I had too much fun with this one :))
[a/n-1]From the dead serious #176 Sakura Lisel wanted to know what did Arthur's Muggle Protection Act Law do exactly? That, I didn't think out in depth, but laws can be interpreted to do something they didn't exactly intend. [ex: The US Senate filibuster is not the way the rule was intended originally] Dennis' wife kidnapped and killed was the proverbial straw. Magic can be abused any number of ways; Dung could use Obliviate to steal, Malfoy could use Imperio to embezzle. The Pureblood power structure would cover up the crime. I had Harry mention briefly what he found. Would every Weasley be a target? Maybe not. The squib accountant to name one; Aunt Muriel. Harry would probably insist Andromeda & Teddy be spared. I targeted Luna for her prominence & Xeno's actions, maybe even a mercy if she wasn't and he was.
[a/n]magitech presented this…wonder why no muggle born has ever said "To hell with this crap" and revealed the wizarding world by flying a broom into a live televised event like Wimbledon?
Harry Does Different CDXIa
Magitech Idea
"Me mam didna want me comin back." Seamus Finnegan declared loudly enough for all of Gryffindor's Common Room to hear. And if his first remark drew attention, the accusation stopped everything "All due to a certain liar."
Harry shook off Hermione's restraining hand and advanced a few steps "Don't be shy mate. Tell us all what's on your empty brain."
"The Daily Prophet bin saying a lot bout ya, Harry, and Dumbled - -" the Irish boy began.
Harry cut him off with a sneer "And your idiot Mother believes everything Skeeter says!"
"No one has a go at me mam!" he looked ready to swing on his dormmate.
Harry roared back "I'll have a go at ANYONE WHO HAS ONE AT ME! THAT INCLUDES YOUR STUPID BITCH MOTHER!"
"ERRROOYYWOORR!" Seamus was blind with rage and launched himself as he screamed.
Having battled Voldemort just months earlier, an angry peer was no threat. No one saw his wand come out, but the flash left the attacker on the floor with blood dripping from his temple. Harry followed up with a few violent kicks in the stomach. His furious gaze swept the Common Room and he snarled "Anybody else? WELL? COME ON!"
"HARRY POTTER! EXPLAIN YOURSELF THIS INSTANT!" the voice of Professor McGonagall matched the student.
He was too angry to care and reported succinctly, if vulgarly "This fucking prick blames me for Voldemort, so when he jumped me I stunned him. And I'll do the same to anyone else! Get me? ALL OF YOU!" He delivered a couple more savage kicks.
"That will be a hundred points from Gryffindor Potter!" outraged Head of House ruled. "And you will march up to your room and remain there until summoned! MOVE!"
His path to the stairs happened to be right past her, so as he passed Harry lashed out with a left cross that caught her totally surprised and square in the nose. The only sound was that of his stomping up the tower stairs. Otherwise you could hear individual heartbeats.
"Potter! You will come with me to Professor Dumbledore's office where I will see to it you are expelled!" McGonagall was struggling to her feet and trying to reassemble what remained of her shredded authority.
He did reappear, about three minutes later, not the slightest bit cooled down "Snivilus has been threatening that since 91! Well you can tell him he got his wish! And fuck you too!" He snapped his broom between his legs and blasted through the large stained-glass tower window. Gone from sight before the echo faded.
Harry tore through the air at top speed until his fury abated. He might have gone to Wales or York, he didn't know by the time he settled. He loafed in the treetops over a park thinking, until he decided his best course was to visit his Godfather grumbling "That'll be a fun conversation."
Arriving in London fairly collected, he found Surrey and Little Whining without too much trouble. He remembered the way to Grimmauld well enough, in a general sort of way. Unfortunately, the busy weeks since, never mind the latest upset, led him to forgetting the exact address. As a result, the Fidelus Charm fully reasserted itself. Utterly lost he grew angry and frustrated again. "If I'm not everyone's hero I'm the next insane dark lord!" he growled "Well to hell with them all! Maybe I should just- -"

"Good evening Sirius." The Leader of the Light greeted the Azkaban escapee on entering Grimmauld's kitchen, he was not smiling "I have some difficult news. I shall not beat around the bush. Harry left school…and under quite disturbing circumstances."
His first thought was of expecting Remus to appear with a laugh, then to wish his friend was there for mutual support. He growled "You want to explain that, in as few words as possible?"
"I start with a reminder I am a century older than you, young man." Said Dumbledore coldly before moving on "While there are a variety of versions, in short, facts are your Godson did assault both a classmate and his Head of House."
Sirius' rising anger simply vanished, replaced by shock. He reflexively defended though "Well? What did she do to Harry?"
"Did you not hear Black? Your arrogant brat attacked a Professor." Snape chose then to step through the Floo, having heard the last few words "Were it up to me, his wand would already be snapped."
Sirius glared at him hatefully "Piss off Snivilus."
"How original!" Severus sneered.
Dumbledore's wand exploded with a bang "Silence! Severus, get back to locating where Harry might have got to. Sirius, in any of your talks, might Harry have said something that might clue us into where he is? Privet Dr perhaps?"
"Petunia?!" he snorted "The night I finally got to talk to him, I suggested Harry might live with me. Looking back, I'm surprised he didn't jump on Buckbeak."
The Headmaster frowned "I might perhaps benefit from checking some of the bedrooms? Hmmmm?"
"Untrusting sort, huh Albus?" Sirius was already on edge after confronting his schoolhood rival "Go right ahead, knock yourself out. But the way I figure it he's too smart to just go where your first instinct brought you."

Lighting up the night sky was a laser display over the largest soccer arena in London. The 90,000 capacity Wembley Stadium was particularly festive during the halftime show as Team England was handing Team Turkey a crushing defeat. It was already 4-0 and the fireworks were expected to continue into the second.

Harry hadn't really been paying attention to where he was going, so it was a shock when explosions began all around him. His Quidditch reflexes kicked in before he was even conscious of danger and he was soon above the field of fire, but it put a scare in him.
In an instant Harry made a rash impetuous decision that would change history. He would later put it into words as 'The Wizarding World threw me out, so I didn't feel bound by their rules' Just when the two teams were coming out to resume play, the young wizard swooped down on his broom, landed at centerfield touched his wand to his throat and his voice echoed through the massive stadium "HI THERE! MY NAME IS HARRY POTTER! I AM A WIZARD!"

"Sirius! We got a real problem! Huge! Huge! HUGE!" Nymphadora Tonks ran through Grimmauld's front door in absolute panic "I was providing magic security for a football game at Wembley and Harry showed up."
The worried godfather sighed in relief "Excellent. We'll just go collect him and deal with the Hogwarts situation. Sit down and talk it all out."
"You don't get it! Help me here Headmaster!" the young Auror's hair was violently red "We're talking the Spanish Inquisition and the Salem Witch Trials and the Arab massacres on a planetary scale! He's DESTROYED the Statutes of Secrecy!"
Dumbledore pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed "Let us not exaggerate Nymphadora."
"Don't call me that!" she snapped.
Dumbledore squeezed her shoulder in what should have been a comforting manner "There, there. If Harry's made an accidental disclosure that is what we have Obliviators and Arthur's department for."
"You don't get it any more than he does!" Tonks slapped the hand away and raged "I'm not talking one or two or ten! Football is the muggles' Quidditch! There musta been a hundred thousand and that's just those there! People around the world saw it! Hundreds of millions!"
Sirius turned a malicious smile on Dumbledore and commented "On the bright side the Ministry is going to be too busy to hunt me. I can go looking for Harry. Love to find out what your people did to set him off. If I find out Snivilus was involved …well, he better get Pettigrew to teach him to become a rat."
"That is not helpful." The Headmaster complained "I assume the Order can use this to coordinate the search. I will have to deal with larger matters."
Sirius countered "You assume wrong, Albus. Don't set foot in my house without Harry. I'm dead serious. Dora you're family, you're always welcome. Though while you're out I'd appreciate you passing a message for his friends to come share what happened. I doubt I got the full story." Then he turned back "Get out Albus. Get out or I'll set Kreacher on you!"
