Him and a boy with red hair were sitting on a train, obviously going to a school of some sort, eating weird kinds of sweets that Harry had never heard of before, when a girl with frizzy brownish blonde hair burst open the door.
"Has anyone seen a toad?A boy named Neville's lost one..."she said, and looked at the boy with red hair, who had cleared his throaght and had a sort of wooden stick with a handle in his hands, nad was pointing it at a rat in his lap, she looked happily at this,"Oh, your doing magic? Let's see then..."
The boy with red hair cleared his throaght, raised his wand, and,"Sunshine, daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow.."nothing happened.
"Is that a real spell?"she said suspiciously,"Well, it's not very good, is it?"
The boy with red hair shot Harry an incredulous look, his eye brow raised in the girl's direction.
The girl pulled out her wand.
"I've tried a few spells and they've all worked for me..for example.."she pointed her wand at Harry's head and he flinched.
"Occulus, Repairo.."she said, and Harry's glasses magically repaired themselves, and he glanced up in shock at the girl, examining his glasees. Meanwhile the boy with red hair was munching on a piece of chocolate.
"Holy Cricket! You're Harry Potter!"the girl said excitedly,"I'm Hermione Granger..."she looked over at the boy, her eyes narrowed,"And, you are?"
"Ron Weasley.."he said with a mouth full of chocolate.
"Pleasure.."she said sarcastically, and his dream flashed to another scene.
"Windgard Leviosa, Windgard, Leviosa....Wind.."a boy was sitting next to him in a class, when there was a large boom, and the feather he was pointing the stick at exploded.
"I think were going to need another feather over here professor..."he said to the short man teaching the class, and he watched the feather smolder into ash. And then another....
He was looking at a piece of parchment with two red haired boys, twins, and watched words suddenly appear on it.
Messr.s Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs
Purveyors of Aids to Magical Mischeif-Makers
are proud to present
The Marauder's Map
"Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs.."one of the boys had said,"We
owe them so much..."
"Noble men, working tirelessly to help a new generation of lawbreakers.."said
the other twin solemly.
"Right, "said the first one briskly,"Don;t forget to wipe it after you've
used it-"
"-or anyone can read it..."the secound twin said waringly.
"Just tap it again and say 'Mischeif managed' And it'll go blank..."
And another scene...
He was lying in a bed in something like a hospital, people crouding around
him.
The door was closed and there was a dog standing beside Harry's bed, everyone
looking at him.The dog looked up at an incredibly old man with a long white
beard, before transforming into a person. A lady with red hair jumped at
seeing him, screamed, and jumped back from the bed.
"Sirius Black!"she shrieked, pointing at him.
"Mum, shut up!"yelled the red haired boy, Ron, looking a few years older,"It's
okay!"
One of the men in the room, dressed in long black robes, with black hair
and cold looking eyes was staring at Black with a mix of horror and repulsion
on his face.
"Him!"he snarled, staring at Black, whose face showed equal dislike."What
is he doing here?"
"He is here at my invatation.."said the old man, looking between them,"as
you are, Severus. I trust you both. It is time for you to lay aside your
old differences and trust each other."
He thought that the old man was insane. Sirius and the other man were eyeing
eachother with the utmost loathing.
"I will settle, in the short term.."said the old man, with a bite of impatience
in his voice,"for a lack of open hostility. You will shake hands. You are
on the same side now. Time is short, and unless the few of us who know
the truth do not stand untied, there is no hope for any of us.."
Very slowly-but still glaring at each other as though each wished the other
nothing but ill-Sirius and Snape moved toward each other and shook hands.
They let go extremely quickly.
Then another
"I don't know what people would do if they found out that I was on your
side Potter.."it was a boy with silvery blonde hair.
"Just admit it..your not a death eater..you dont have the mark on your
arm, and we could sure use you in the Order...ok??Friends?"Harry held out
his hand.
Then there was another scene, and Harry wasn't sure how long it would last.
"Harry you're crazy, this wasn't your fault.."a girl with red hair was
pacing in a living room, staring at him,"You had no idea..really..calm
down.."
"How can you say calm down..he tried to kill you last night..."Harry said,
exasperated, and looked at the large gash on his arm.
"Why didn't he try and kill Dumbledore.."the girl started.
"Because I love you!"Harry burst out, and the girl covered her mouth in
astonishment.Harry stared at her,"Because he's trying to hurt me nad the
best way to do that is to hurt those that I love the most..he already has
Ron and Hermione..and I dont know what I would do if I didnt have you here
Ginny.."he said, and hugged her.
"I dont want to die.."she said, and a tear slipped down his cheek.
"Neither do I.."he said quietly,"But it's going to come for me sooner or
later..the least I can do is prevent you from being hurt.."he said gently,
nad pushed a strand of hair out of her eyes.
"What are we going to do?"she sighed, and he kissed the top of her head,"You
wont have to do anything.."he said quietly, and kissed her, and she moved
back on the couch, holding her arms out, and he picked her up, carrying
her towards the bedroom.
He was in the sick wing, sitting, his eyes wide, tears forming in them.
"I have cancer.."he said quietly, and a tear rolled down his cheek. "You
mean, after everything I have done for the wizarding world Im going to
die??"he said quietly, in shock,"That after everything I've sacrificed
I only have a few years...That even if I kill Voldemort..and get the normal
life I've always wanted..I'll die??"he said bitterly.
"I'm sorry.."The old man said quietly.
"Oh..you're sorry...everybody's sorry...Now I know what I have to do..."he
said quietly, and turned, walking from the office, his cloak swishing behind
him, and up towards the Owlery, writing a note,"Hedwig..this is the last
time I'll see you..please go to Sirius for me..."he said quietly, and started
to write.
Dear Sirius,
By the time you read this you will already have discovered what is going
on..I'm going to sacrifice myself for everyone...Im going to go to the
Riddle Mansion with every intention of ending my life by saving Ron and
Hermione..surrenduring myself to Voldemort...have them let them go, and
giving my life up to him. It's what I was born to do...You've been such
a great Godfather to me...always supported me..please do not let this news
leak out untill I am already dead..please...You were like a father to me
and I respect that...Take care of yourself Padfoot...
Then he mounted a broom, and left.
And another..but this time he could hear it in surround sound, like it
was sort of recent.
"I know you want me dead..I'm giving you a fair chance..kill me and let
them go..I'm right here..I don't have a wand....."Harry had said, staring
at the two people from the train, who were chained up across the room.
"No!Harry you can't!"Hermione yelled, and he looked at her, and at Ron,
and Voldemort unchained them.
"Go..get out and..."he started, and they both stared at him, shock and
disbelief on there faces.
"Harry I wont.."Hermione had said.
"God Herms dont be like this.."Harry said,"Please.."he handed her a necklace,"Give
this to Ginny..tell her I..well..and..it's a portkey..it'll take you back
to Hogwarts..in a few secounds..then you can never used it.."he said, and
looked at her, determination in his face,"It's the only way to save you..now
take it and go!"he urged.
"Harry.."she sobbed, and hugged him.
"Ron take care of Ginny...."he said to him, shook his hand, and heard
the man mutter a few well chosen words, nad stared at them, before
he fell to the ground, Hermione burst into tears, and with almost the last
of his strength he watched them go.
"Avada Kevdrana"
He watched the curse rebound upon the man, and watched the man smirk with
the last of his strength smirk at him, and raise the wand into the air,
pointed it at him with a shaking arm, "Memordisio, You wont remember who
you are..noone's going to love you now..potter.."the man had through the
spot of breath he had left, and Harry's eyes closed, his scar dissapearing.
"Harry!Harry wake up..Harry..god is he okay??"
The voice arose Harry from a fitfull sleep, and he glanced at Matt and
Jenna, who were staring at him.
"Holy Crikey are you okay?"Matt asked him,"You started thrashing..and muttering
in your sleep..but anyways..it's breakfast time.."he said,and turned,"Get
dressed, we're going downtown today..and I think that.."
"Okay.."Harry said tiredly, and stared at them for a moment.
"What is wrong??"Jenna asked him," Is it..That girl, Hermione..Hermione
Granger.."
"She was rather dashing wasn't she?"Matt said, and Harry rolled his eyes.
"Hermione? Oh please.."he said quietly,"She's too smart for you.."he said,
and turned, walking towards the door of the hotel, not realising what he
had said,"I have to go out.."he said, and ended up in front of an old pub
in the middle of town.
He walked inside, nad sat down at a stool, and ordered a water.
"My lad you sure do look farmilliar.."the bartender said, and Harry looked
up.
"That's what everyone sais.."he said,"It drives me crazy.."
"I'm Tom.."the man said, and shook his hand.
"I'm Harry..Harry Potter.."he said, and the guy's eyes widened.
"I'm sorry to have even mentioned my name..this girl at King's Cross went
billistic when i told her my name..."
"That's because if you are who you say you are..."
"What? I'm what? A boy who keeps on having strange dreams that was found
in a basement of an abandoned burnt out mansion in Little Hangleton, and
sent to an orphanage? I don't have a past..."he said, annoyed, and his
eyes widened.
