Disclaimer: I do not own any of J.K Rowling's wonderful characters. Although quite frankly like every other person in the world with I did!
Summary: Five years after he disappeared, Harry is discovered. How will he react when he is pulled back into the magic community after all these years?
This is the sequel to Abandoned Hero in case your choosing not to read that first I'll give you a quick summary:
Harry's seventh year starts with Voldemort being dead. He soon discoveries Voldemort isn't dead and can't handle things. On the day of his graduation he disappears.
Now that is a really really quick summary of an eleven chapter story. There is much more to the story but those are the main things you need to know to read this one. I still advise reading it first...but it's your choice!
Chapter Six: His greatest fear
Early the following morning, Harry was awakened by a light shake. He was confused as to who was be waking him up so early in the morning. He opened his eyes and was blinded by the light that was coming in the room. It was obvious that someone wanted him awake.
He finally looked up again in a daze and quietly muttered, "Ron?"
"You sure are a hard person to wake up Harry", Ron replied.
"Ron...I'm so sorry about Ginny. You're right it's all my fault. If I hadn't left...", Harry paused.
"Stop Harry", Ron snapped, "I'm the one who's here to apologize"
"What?", Harry asked.
"It isn't your fault, I'm sorry that I ever thought it was", Ron continued.
"But if I hadn't left Ginny wouldn't have been hurt and...", Harry started.
"We were all hurt for a while Harry. It wasn't your fault what happened to her. There were other things you don't know about, that I don't think you'll ever find out. There's more behind the story then you know. And trust me it's far from your fault. If anyone's at fault it's the rest of us", Ron sighed.
"What do you mean?", Harry asked puzzled.
"I mean this is the second time we've let things slip by us", Ron started, "we should've seen things like you and Ginny coming"
"How would you have known? Don't blame yourself", Harry assured Ron.
"For gods sake Harry, you'd been depressed for weeks! We should've kept a closer watch on you", Ron grew angry with himself.
"Don't beat yourself up over it", Harry added.
"Next time you decide things get that bad Harry, please come take to someone", Ron suddenly pleaded.
"Ron...", Harry muttered.
"I mean it Harry, I'm not going to lose you like Ginny", Ron stared at his friend.
"I don't plan on dying anytime soon", Harry joked.
"I just need assurance that you won't do anything stupid like you did last night ever again", Ron added.
"But I didn't do anything! I just had to get out of that house. I'm sorry, there's to many memories and...you tell me you wouldn't have done the same thing", Harry tested.
"You can't be running around like that Harry, you may have been able to avoid it for a few years but you know who is still out there", Ron grew serious.
"If that's my fate then so be it. I'm not going to walk around hiding, like you guys want me to", Harry replied.
"Hey face it Harry, you owe us all five years", Ron answered.
"Ugh...what time is it?", Harry asked.
"Don't change the subject!", Ron exclaimed.
"Fine, Ron is there anything else you would like to talk about? Perhaps over tea?", Harry joked.
"Honestly I'm trying to be serious here, and all you can do is crack lame jokes", Ron smiled.
"So your not mad at me are you?", Harry asked.
"Of course not, I'm just really sorry about what I said to you. You're welcome at my parents house, or Hermione and mine anytime", Ron assured Harry.
"Where's Hermione?", Harry suddenly asked.
"Oh her and Sirius had an argument so she didn't want to come or something", Ron laughed.
"Ron?", Harry asked.
"Yeah?", Ron answered.
"Am I allowed to get up now?", Harry smiled.
"Oh yeah, sure", Ron laughed.
"So think there going to send be back to Hogwarts?", Harry questioned.
"Oh, I'm positive they are", Ron added.
"Great, can't wait", Harry sighed.
"Hey if I didn't have to work so much I'd tell them you could stay with us. But they've got this thing about having someone "watch" over you", Ron sighed.
"I know! That is so annoying", Harry complained.
"You don't have to go back till tonight though", Ron smiled.
"Really?", Harry seemed surprised.
"Instead you're being forced to spend the day with Sirius and me"
"This is cruel", Harry moaned as he saw where they were.
"It's time you get over your fear Harry", Ron replied.
"Okay, but why today?", Harry asked.
"Because there's no better day then today", Sirius added.
"I really hate you both for this you know", Harry sighed.
"Just shut up and get on the broom already", Ron shoved Harry.
"Hey! Give me a minute", Harry sighed.
"If you're a wizard you can't go through life being afraid to fly Harry. Your accident was years ago, you've gotta get over your fears", Sirius stated.
"We'll help you", Ron continued, "and trust me we won't let anything happen to you I promise"
"Why did you have to mention that", Harry grew scared.
"Come on Harry you take the front", Ron held the broom up.
After Harry had climbed on he too jumped on the back, "Ready?"
"No", Harry muttered.
"Well you've got about five seconds to get ready", Ron laughed kicking off the ground.
For a minute he hovered in the air, "I want to get off", Harry cried out.
"Trust me", Ron whispered as he took off into the air.
"I want off!", Harry yelled.
"Harry stop moving around, just relax", Ron commanded.
"Relax? Ron, would you relax if a bunch of spiders were coming at you?", Harry closed his eyes.
"I don't like spiders, but I'm not deathly afraid of them. That's different, nice analogy though", Ron smiled.
"Just face it, I'm never going to be able to fly again", Harry whispered, "I don't like this Ron"
"Your doing great Harry", Ron assured him.
"Yeah if I don't look down!", Harry kept his eyes closed.
"So don't look down", Ron laughed deciding to make Harry's wish come true and land, "You win Harry, were landing"
"Landing? Nobody said anything around landing!", Harry panicked.
"It's not my first time flying, don't be so worried", Ron said.
"It wasn't my first time flying when I crashed either", Harry sighed.
They both kept quiet when they landed. Ron looked at his friend; he was pale as a ghost. Ron had no idea how much Harry had been affected by something that happened so long ago.
"Well you lived Harry", Sirius put an arm around his godson.
"I'm never going on another broom in my life", Harry pulled away.
"Harry", Sirius grabbed his shoulders, "It's in your blood, you have to"
"Oh yes, my father could fly. Lot of good that did him", Harry got out of Sirius grasp and walked towards the house.
"Do you think we did the wrong thing?", Ron asked.
"Baby steps Ron, if he's going to be able to do magic I've never heard of he's going to need to know simple things such as flying", Sirius assured Ron.
"Why is everyone so insistent on Harry being the one to kill you know who!", Ron exclaimed, "It's been how long since Harry's done magic? What makes you think he even has his wand to much less remember anything?"
"We have to have faith in him, that he'll remember", Sirius added.
"Sirius, might I remind you this is the reason he took off last time. He doesn't want this life where he has to be the superhero. Why don't you understand that?", Ron snapped.
"Ron, I'm afraid Harry doesn't have much of a choice"
