Summary: After all that's happened nothings changed right? Wrong, everyone's beginning to notice the new Harry. Can Remus and Sirius bring the old Harry back?
Chapter Eighteen: A New Harry
Harry had half expected a long in depth conversation, which would make him regret what he had just said. What happened was the opposite he expected. Sirius and Remus had stared at him for a few minutes before finally they went their separate ways. And now Harry found himself standing in front of an unfamiliar house, getting ready to meet an unfamiliar person.
Normally Harry didn't get nervous. In fact the feeling he had right now wasn't someone he was familiar with. But he was about to meet someone...someone who to knew all about him. Someone who might hold answers to the questions that were burning inside him. Questions he was uncomfortable asking Sirius. But still he felt an odd sensation that Sirius was more nervous then him.
"Sirius?", Harry spoke up, "Are you mad at me?"
"What?", Sirius snapped out of the trance he was in.
"I said are you mad at me", Harry repeated.
"Not really Harry", Sirius looked down at his godson, "You just said some things that have me worried about you"
"How much longer are we going to stand out here?", Harry asked staring at the door in front of them, "Man...this house is huge"
"Oh...sorry", Sirius blushed.
"Sirius do I uh...is everything alright?", Harry asked as he finally saw Sirius hit the doorbell.
They both watched in amazement as the door swung open and into view came a man wearing a black suit.
"Sirius Black and Harry Potter I presume?", He asked.
"Yeah, is Maggie here? She should be expecting us", Sirius replied.
"I'll go find her it'll only be a moment", the man answered briskly walking away.
"She has a butler?", Harry mouthed to Sirius amazed.
"Your late Sirius", came a strict voice in a tone which reminded Harry very much of his transfiguration professor.
"Sorry Maggie didn't know we were on a schedule", Sirius stared at the women.
"Because of your late and rude entrance Harry's study time has now be dropped from an hour to", she looked down at her watch, "Twelve minutes, it's an outrage Sirius. You couldn't be on time if your life depended on it."
"Nice to see you to Maggie", Sirius chuckled.
"I thought you said Remus would be dropping Harry off", Maggie reached the spot where Sirius and Harry were standing.
"Remus is a professor at Hogwarts you know that", Sirius replied watching Maggie carefully.
She walked toward Harry cautiously checking him over, "It'll be a little work"
"Excuse me?", Harry blushed.
"You my dear, you need a little help with your appearance", Maggie stared at Harry, "You have your mother's beautiful eyes, hidden behind those ugly frames"
Harry raised his eyebrows and looked up at Sirius. He to had an odd look on his face but responded, "Maggie that isn't necessary"
"Nonsense", Maggie turned to Sirius, "Now if you please we have things to do"
"Just a second", Sirius replied turning toward Harry, "This is the end of the line kid, I've gotta go now"
"You can't be serious", Harry glared at Sirius, "You're leaving me with her?"
"Harry you can learn a lot from her, and the faster you do the faster you can return to Hogwarts", Sirius answered.
"What am I supposed to be learning?", Harry snapped.
"You've got a long way to go kid", Sirius sighed, "I'll stop by in a few days"
"That isn't necessary Sirius. You'll just be a distraction", Maggie replied strictly.
"Maggie he's my godson just as much as yours. I'll stop by as I please", Sirius made his way toward the door, "Bye Harry"
"Bye", Harry muttered softly as he watched the door close.
"Stop pouting Harry, and follow me. It's time for dinner", Maggie motioned for the him to follow her.
"Your house is huge", Harry started, "are you the only one who lives here?"
"If your implying am I married no I am not", Maggie replied.
Harry tried to hold back from laughing and muttered under his breath, "Surprising"
"What was that Harry?", Maggie turned her head around.
"Nothing", Harry answered.
"Here we are the dinning area. Eat your supper quietly and then I expect you to go up to bed", Maggie commanded.
"Bed? But it's early!", Harry exclaimed.
"And you have an early appointment tomorrow", Maggie sat down at the table.
"Appointment?", Harry asked nervously.
"Yes, and I expect the day to be dragged out longer than I thought. I didn't know you were in need of such work", Maggie looked up as someone Harry figured was another one of Maggie's maids come in carrying trays full of food.
"Thank you", Harry smiled at the girl who placed his meal in front of him. She smiled back in what looked like amazement that he had spoken to her.
"Harry!", Maggie exclaimed, "She gets paid to work not to talk"
"I was only being polite", Harry exclaimed.
"She's the worker you're the guest", Maggie snapped.
Harry sighed as he slouched back in his chair thinking to himself, this is going to be one long dinner.
It only seemed like hours later when he squinted from the bright light prying into his eyes. He snapped his eyes open and looked at the clock next to him. Five o-clock! This lady is crazy.
He looked around the rather large room in search for the intruder who had awakened him. He hadn't expected Maggie to come herself and wake him of course. It was a young boy, about his age.
"Morning", Harry tried to sound cheerful.
"Are you talking to me?", the boy blushed.
"I don't see anyone else", Harry laughed.
"You'd better get ready, Ms. Jumes doesn't take kindly to stragglers", the boy continued toward Harry's suitcase.
"What are you doing?", Harry asked confused.
"Picking out your clothes of course", the boy seemed confused by Harry.
"I can do that myself", Harry said plainly, "I'm Harry by the way"
"Yes I know who you are"
"And you are?", Harry asked.
"Michael", the boy responded.
"Nice to meet you Michael", Harry smiled.
"You'd better get a move on before you get us both into trouble", Michael added.
"Sorry", Harry muttered grabbing the clothes from Michael, "I guess I'll see you around"
Harry quickly ran into the bathroom and changed. It was odd having people wait on you hand and foot like this. But he was even more worried what was going to happen today.
"I believe I told you to be down here by 5:30 Harry", Maggie's strict voice came from downstairs.
"So I'm five minutes late", Harry laughed thinking she was joking.
"That's five minutes cut out of the day", Maggie snapped, "Now let's go"
"When are you going to tell me where were going?", Harry asked.
"To the salon first, to get you cleaned up a bit", Maggie replied, "Now being that you cannot apparate you will have to use an alternate method. Let's go"
"Are you sure I don't look a bit strange?", Harry asked Jodie the girl who had been working on him.
"Harry you look great, all the girls will be after you when you get back to Hogwarts", Jodie assured him.
"Thanks", Harry blushed.
"Come along now Harry", Jodie said leading him down the hall to where Maggie was waiting for him.
"Wow Jodie, this might be your best work yet", Maggie walked around Harry who was looking unsure, "Don't worry Harry just one more thing"
"What do you mean?", Harry asked.
"Why contacts of course", Maggie added paying at the cash register, "Have a great weekend Jodie"
"You too Maggie", Jodie smiled, "bye Harry"
One Week Later "One incredibly long week later"
It had been a long week for Harry. Every time he tried to do something to impress Maggie he'd felt he'd come up short. But he had to give her a little credit; he was feeling much better about himself then when he'd first come.
The new look had been enough to lift Harry's spirits. He couldn't wait to see Hermione and Ron. They'd be surprised to see his glasses gone.
After hours of work keeping up with Hogwarts, and added lessons Maggie had come up with for more practical things it had been decided Harry could return to Hogwarts. And he was glad. He was glad he had met his godmother, but she wasn't someone he'd want to live with. He had to admit, he'd had it very good at Remus' house. Maggie was strict. Someone he knew Sirius never could be around him.
So now he found himself sitting I the front hall with his trunk sitting next to him. He was grateful Remus had sent over his truck of things. He was happily waiting Sirius's appearance. Seeing a familiar face would be great after having his godmother the only person he'd really been able to talk to for the past week.
When the doorbell rang Harry ignored the butler who called out saying he'd get it, and raced to the door. With a huge smile on his face he opened the door, but frowned when it wasn't the person he expected.
"Professor Snape?", Harry asked confused.
"I can see you're happy to see me Potter", Snape spat out, "Now where is your godmother"
"I'm coming, I'm coming", Maggie replied entering the hall, "Severus? I thought Sirius would be picking Harry up"
"Professor Dumbeldore told me to come and get Harry. I know no more than that", Snape explained looked at his watch, "We've gotta go"
"Bye Maggie", Harry ran to her side and pulled her into a huge hug, "Thanks for everything"
Caught by surprise Maggie patted Harry on the back, "It was nice to finally meet you Harry"
"Come on Potter we don't have time, Dumbeldore set up a portkey", Snape said frustrated.
"A portkey? I thought you couldn't be brought to Hogwarts by things like that", Harry replied.
"You can if you're Albus Dumbeldore", Snape answered.
"What's wrong Harry?", Maggie asked.
"This doesn't seem right...I don't trust you", Harry stepped away from Professor Snape.
"Don't be stupid Potter", Snape grabbed his arm.
"Let go of me!", Harry exclaimed.
"I can see this is going to take a few minutes", Snape rolled his eyes.
"Harry...this is your potions professor he wouldn't hurt you", Maggie insisted.
"I'll take care of this", Snape rolled his eyes. Catching Harry off guard, he lifted him off his feet and carried him outside.
Harry struggled out of Snape's grasp as he set him down, "What was that!"
"That's called power Potter. I'm your professor and you are the student. Professor decides what's best for student", Snape smirked.
"Let's just get his over this", Harry finally decided waving to Maggie to let her know he was all right.
"Grab on Potter", Snape said holding up what must have been the portkey. But he'd never know exactly what it looked like because before he could blink he saw the familiar grounds of Hogwarts coming into view.
"See", Snape looked toward Harry, "I'm not as bad as you thought. And besides I thought being I partly saved your life you'd be a little more trustworthy"
"Sorry slipped my mind", Harry suddenly felt stupid.
"Let's go", Snape muttered motioning for Harry to follow him inside the building.
"How did my stuff get here?", Harry asked dragging his trunk behind him.
"I have a few tricks up my sleeve as well Potter", Snape laughed as he opened the doors and held them open for Harry to drag his trunk inside, "Welcome back Harry Potter, to Hogwarts"
"You have no idea how good it feels to be back", Harry muttered softly to himself.
"Well, why are you just standing there? I assume there's a welcome back party waiting for you knowing Gryffindors"
Harry grinned, he never expected being home, being at Hogwarts at last would feel so good. He walked as fast as he could toward the Gryffindor common room still having the weight of his truck to pull behind him. At last, he finally did reach the familiar portrait on the fat lady.
"Harry!", he heard a voice behind him belonging to Dean Thomas, "your back!"
"Hey Dean", Harry smiled.
"Whoa...you look different", Dean studied Harry.
"That bad eh?", Harry asked.
"No, it's a good different", Dean assured Harry before muttering the password, "Ron and Hermione will be happy to see you, they've been driving us nuts all day"
"Dean, where is everyone?", Harry asked seeing an empty common room.
"Darn I almost forgot everyone's in the great hall", Dean smiled slyly.
"Dean, what exactly is going on?", Harry asked.
"Come on just follow me!", Dean muttered as the two of them ran the whole way to the great hall, "Uh...I'll go first"
Harry was beginning to wonder exactly what was going on. Curiously he opened the doors to the great hall and stood in shock. All of his friends were sitting around a huge table in the center of the room. He found himself unable to move, as if trying to save the moment. It was wonderful to be back.
Then he caught Sirius' eye. The one thing he had been worried about. He finally found it in him to make his way to the table.
"Surprise!", everyone laughed as Harry slowly neared the table.
"I daresay I think we the surprise him!", Sirius laughed stepping at Harry's side, "I see Maggie did just what she said"
"You had me so worried Sirius!", Harry hugged him, "When Snape was at the door..."
"Yeah...quite the disappointment huh?", Sirius joked.
For a few minutes Harry made rounds talking to everyone. Finally he paused in amazement when he reached Hermione and Ron. He was actually seeing his best friends again.
"Harry!", Hermione happily through her arms around him, "It's so good to see you!"
"Sure took you long enough to get over here", Ron smiled at Harry.
"You'll never imagine how much I missed you guys", Harry felt as if the smile was plastered on his face.
"You look good Harry", Hermione finally took a good look at her best friend, "Contacts?"
"Yep", Harry replied, "You think I look dumb don't you?"
"No Harry, I think you look handsome. I'm really going to have to worry now", Hermione laughed.
"Worry about what?", Harry asked.
"Well that someone is going to steal by boyfriend away from me of course!"
Author's Note: Were getting near the end. I have high hopes though that we can reach 300! Depending on if I split it in half or to it all at once there's either one or two chapters left. As for a sequel...I don't know at the moment. Let me know what your thoughts are. Something new and fresh or a sequel? Tell me in your review.
Hermione45695- I'm sure they do! I'm American though so I don't know exactly how they talk. I'd love to be British though! Then I could be a Harry Potter star! (Grrr and then I could've had my Harry Potter dvd two weeks sooner)
Someone- Wow you get homework over the summer? We don't!
Mage Of Fire- Now there's a name that hasn't come up in a while! Thanks though!
Hyper Princess- I sure hope so! My goal is to reach 300 but...maybe it's a bit far fetched.
Pathetic Invader- Thanks! (lol priorities Tina priorities)
Anna- I'd tell you but then...well I'd be giving the secret out! Ha j/k it's not really a secret. Shades of Purple is an album by M2M. I merely changed the colors to Yellow standing for happy times and blue standing for the sad times.
Anie- How can you honestly compare me to J.K Rowling! She's a billion...no make that zillion times better than me. Nobody will ever match her! (Especially not me)
Emilie- Wait no more!
Sailor Sol- Yeah I was laughing as I wrote the Maggie part!
Kate Potter- I'll let you answer that.
Malena- Yeah our graduation is the night of the formal/dance. That's Friday though. I ended up just getting the presidential award last night.

Summersun- I agree with you there
Kaydee- I have to say I always look forward to your reviews! 583 words is defiantly breaking your old record for number of words in a review for one of my stories!
SasseeSam- Okay!
Amy- I try my hardest I really do. But even I have to say....I update a lot faster than most people I read.
Kayla Summers- No problem at all!
Sherlyn- He did, indeed he did!
Nicky- I totally agree with you.
Ginny5- I always try!
Well please review this chapter is you review any ever! I really want everyone opinion on if they want a sequel or a new fresh completely different idea. (Which if I might add I already have something dreamed up)

I guess it's an honor and all...but well have the 8th grade gets it! I want someone nobody else got! (Still think I should've gotten that ila award. I can write decent!)
Summersun- I agree with you there
Kaydee- I have to say I always look forward to your reviews! 583 words is defiantly breaking your old record for number of words in a review for one of my stories!
