Hey guys i feel like it's time I responded to some reviews

To Guest: I'm not sure how I'm gonna go about Dumbledore. I understood why he did what he did as a reader and movie watcher but the way he goes about it I agree is flawed. But in the end I believed if he had been more careful and didn't get himself curse he would have changed up how he was going. HOWEVER, I believe the curse also changed his mind on how he was raising Harry. I will consider this as time goes on.

To michaelc100: Thank you so much for your compliment man I hope you continue to enjoy.

To Chaos Snow Kitsune: either way I hope you find something you do like about this and continue to give me reviews thank you

And finally to OverlordRevan: Thanks man I hope you keep enjoying the story and let me know what you think as we head forward.

Lastly thank everyone for the follies and favorites. I've been watching them hit my email and it just is amazing. I hope you all continue to show your support and let me know what you think. Well I think I wasted enough time on thanks and comments now. Here we go Chapter 4

It was a quiet day at the Ministry as the DMLE was mostly working towards getting rid of You know who. However, even acknowledging he existed still didn't drive anyone to fully act. In fact it seemed to make them even more nervous. Though for some it wasn't simply the act of knowing that stopped them but the cause of sadness that freezes one hand in particular.

The Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, Amelia Bones sat at her desk a glass in her hand as she swirled the fire whiskey around in it. She sat staring at the photo on her desk.

"Why did you have to be such a brave idiot?..." Her words cut through the air in sharpness but fell flat as if the the only way they could be strong was if they were aimed at someone. She reached over and gently ran a hand around the picture frame. In said picture stood her and a man. A man with black hair and yet with grey eyes that would pierce her when he looked.

"Oh Padfoot..." She squeezed her eyes as the man in the picture looked at the picture Amelia and smiled hugging her. "Why didn't you come find me?"Soon a knock came from her door and she looked up. "O-one second!" She put the photo in her desk and the drink under the table. As her assistant walked in.

"Sorry Ma'am but this bloody owl won't let me bring you the letter myself." The assistant came in with the whitest owl she had ever seen. The owl flew to the table and held up a letter to her. Reading the name on the letter.

Boss

Only one person would address a letter to her like that as she took it and pet the owl. The owl cooed at the pet and nuzzled her hand before taking up a spot to await a letter to be taken back.

"You can go back Adrian" The assistant bowed and walked out closing the door behind them. Amelia looked at the letter than the bird and the drawer with the picture. A day of coincidences eh paddy?, she thought to herself. Before she opened the letter and looked down at the letter as she began to read.

Boss

Hey Boss, it's Tonks. I'm officially putting in a request that a investigation is out into the well-being of Harry James Potter and his living standards at Privet Drive before this date as I have taken up residence in his room and am determined to help him through the loss of one Sirius Orion Black. I have reason to believe Harry has been abused not only physically and mentally but also emotionally as well.

I am concerned with many things I've seen but shall not reveal at this moment due to his privacy of which I believe he has earned more than anyone. I await your response.

Tonks

P.S. I hope your there for the Will reading in two days. I think He'd need all the support.

Amelia sat the letter down and looked up. Harry? Abused? God what would Sirius do after reading this, she thought then realized exactly what he would do. Sirius would probably have killed those muggles and got Harry out of that house. She laughed to herself before looking at the letter. For some reason it had started to fill a void she had not realized she had been missing. Was it due to the connection with Sirius, more than likely, but it also came from her being the Head and being an Aunt. She nodded to herself.

"Alright Amelia." She spoke aloud. "No more...no more for now. It's time you finally did something right for Sirius." Amelia stood picking up the glass and sat the photo on her mantle above the fireplace. "To you my Paddy" She raised the glass to the picture before throwing it into the fire. She turned and walked back to her desk writing two letters. One to Tonks and the other to start the investigation. It was time some questions were finally answered.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tonks slowly awoke from her sleep and hummed as she felt the warmth from the arms surrounding her. She opened her eyes slowly and looked up now noticing she had fully cuddled up against Harry. The sudden reaction made her eyes go wide and her hair suddenly began to flip through colors. Before she slid away from him.

Shite shite shite shite shite, she thought to herself. As she tried to remember what happened the day before. Once it hit her she calmed and closed her eyes relaxing. You got in and helped him calm down, she thought, you did it to help him...though it did feel nice. She mentally scolded herself before slipping to the kitchen to make some coffee to get her mind working. After a nice good cup of jo she came over to Harry's bed. Harry had his arm under the bed and his kinda cute face lay there pressed into the pillow finally looking rested. She smirked playfully as she got dressed and grabbed the bed.

Constant Vigilance this! She grinned as she threw her bed up and dumped Harry out onto the floor. He landed with a thud and spun around holding up his hand as his glasses flew to his hands and his wand, which was what was under his pillow, was now pointing directly at her.

"Nice job Harry!" Tonks clapped. "Your already under Moody's rules with that one." She teased.

"It...is...too early for this." Harry let out a tired sigh as he rubbed his neck and shook his head standing. "Really had to dump me out of bed?"

"Yup. I'm gonna train you until your as good or better than me." Tonks puffed up her chest in an act of pride for her, however, for Harry seeing her press her chest up was another thing he was unprepared for this early as he looked away. "Now get dressed! It's time for some laps"

Harry gulped as he began to reconsider letting Voldemort back to possess him again. Anything had to be better than 'Moody Training'.

After about thirty minutes, which Tonks gave him due to kinda feeling bad for waking him like that, she grew the interior of the room to the size of a small gym. She stretched with him for a moment before began to run with him around the outer edge of the room. For two hours Harry ran with Tonks and surprisingly for her, he kept up. It had to be from his quidditch, she thought to herself. When they stopped Tonks had to give a timeout hand sign and bend over to catch her breath.

"Merlin...sweaty...balls...Harry." She breathed before undoing her jacket and dropping it to the side. "I have never...fuck." She had pushed herself to stay ahead of him and it was coming back to bite her.

"What's wrong...Tonks? Cat got...your tongue?" Harry teased back as he pulled his hair back and handed her a bottle of water.

She gasped as she pulled her lips from the water bottle she had been drinking furiously. "Ah...you surprised me...I didn't think you would keep up. Guess Gryffindor has gotten better at quidditch."

"You can thank...Oliver Wood." Harry admitted before finishing his water. "Alright...what's next?"

"Meditation."

"No seriously." Harry laughed as he looked at the stone face of Tonks. "Wait really?"

"Yup. " Tonks nodded before rolling out two mats for them. "Meditation will help with your mind in more than one way. The more you can focus on spells intent the better they react, the same goes with your Occlumency." Harry sat down with her taking up a position with his legs crossed. "Focus on one point Harry. Like my nose." She instructed him. "And begin to count back from 10 slowly and each time you close your eyes let your breathing draw."

Her voice seemed to comfort him though he never thought of meditation helping him her calm voice had a affect he admitted and as he followed her instructions he felt his eyes close more and more and as he did he felt his breathing grow and become more stable.

"Good Harry" Tonks' voice now was nothing more than a whisper and yet it seemed so loud as they began to meditate. "Let yourself relax~ focus on you and your room." She smiled as she closed her eyes and prepared herself as well. For a hour they sat like that basking in meditation before her voice pulled them both back. "Alright. Now let's see how well you can keep a legilimens attack back. "

She pointed her wand at him and whispered the spell. She felt the resistance almost instantly. Nice, she thought before pushing harder. And harder. Slowly she felt him begin to break apart. Then She got a good idea. Well good idea to mess with, not a good idea to attack.

"HARRY IM NAKED!" She yelled at him seeing his eyes open and widen at her comment before feeling her push through into his mind

Dirty trick

She heard his mind say as she entered his mind and felt that same safeness she did when she laid with him. As she looked around she saw a few of his early memories at Hogwarts but as she moved toward his younger years she felt the resistance. And it was hard and cold and felt just one word.

Evil.

Tonks tried to press further before suddenly getting slammed back out and into her body. The sudden forced launched her into her back.

"Tonks are you okay?!" Harry slid beside her

"Y-yeah Harry just bumped my head." She ran a hand up to her forehead. As she did Harry ran and came back with a ice pack holding it against her head himself. She looked straight up at him. What was inside Harry that didn't want her to see? Or was it even Harry who didn't want her to see what was deeper in him?
