A New Life part 2



Harry almost sprang out of bed to get to Dumbledore. He wasn't the only one though, as both Ron and Hermionie were sitting in they bed with their jaws dropped, starting at Harry, and then at Dumbledore, and back at Harry again. Harry was the first to speak. "Professor….." he began, but was cut off by Dubledore.

"Harry" Dumbledore started, with a heavy breath, "There is more I have to tell you. It will be hard for you to move in for a while, with the ministry work and all, and Sirius will be needed when Peter goes on trial. Now, you have a choice that you have to make. You can go back to your aunt's house for part of the summer, and then go with Sirius when everything has been worked out, and there are no problems, or, you can go with him immediately, but it might not be all that great at first."

Harry was hardly listening. He, Harry, after years of torture and agony at the Dursley's, was finally getting away from them. "Sirius!" he shouted. " I want to live with Sirius!" Dumbledore grinned, said he had to go, and that Madam Pomfrey would be in soon to let them out, and then they could go with everyone else to breakfast. And with that, Dumbledore left them there, all in awe.

"Harry! This is great! Not only is Sirius free, but now you can live with him" Hermionie said, happy that last nights work paid off so well

"Can I visit" Ron said, obviously happy for Harry. Harry had a feeling that Ron looked up to Sirius, probably for surviving that time in azkaban, one of the most feared places. Anyways, Harry was so happy, he told Ron he could visit whenever he wanted, which, of course, made Ron very happy.

After this, they spent the next fifteen minutes guessing about what life for Harry would be like, and for summer arrangements so that they could all see each other. Ron mentioned something about the quidditch cup finals, but even quidditch was not enough to break the spell that was on Harry. He was just too exited to think of anything else.

Fifteen minutes later, Madam Pomfrey walked in the room, in a considerably better mood then she usually is, and went over a final checkup, and then, with a little reluctance, she let them go have breakfast, even though she thought they should stay one more day.

On the way to breakfast, Harry noticed it was very quiet. Hermionie looked at her watch and realized that everyone would already be there. When the three walked in the room, several things happened at once. From the Griffindor, Ravenclaw, and Huffelpuff tables, cheers went up, and as they walked to the table, they got many pats on the back, and "way to go" and "I can't believe you got Sirius innocent!" From the Slytherins, Harry got what he expected: many boos and unhappy faces, and none were more unhappy than Draco's. This made Harry laugh.

As they sat down for breakfast, Dumbledore stood up, with Sirius standing up with him. Dumbledore then raised his hands for silence, and said, "My friends, I would like to say a few words before we begin our meal. Last night, three of our students, whom I'm sure you already know who they are, has saved someone's life. If it was not for them, this innocent man would be dead, but now, he is among us, free. I propose a toast to Sirius Black, the man with a new life."



Well, that's this installment. I just had to work the title there in the end. Next time, Harry leaves school, and the adventures begin. Something interesting happens, and maybe for the future, you can tell me what pairs you would like to see. Also, your reviews will tell me if this is good, and how long the fic goes. Who knows, this could play into book four. Well, g2g, so r/r, and please read goodbye hogwarts if you like this fic, because they are very similar. bye
