A/n: I decided to alternate viewpoints in chapters. First Harry, then Draco, easy, nay? I will have them at Hogwarts in the next chapter or two. Bare with me, I get these typed whenever I can get up to the library. I also have to get the chapters written and I have three enrichment classes, various clubs, and have to baby-sit my younger siblings.

Disclaimer: If I owned them, would I be writing a fanfic?

Chapter Two: Harry arrives at home.

Harry finished his shopping with getting a wand from Ollivanders. That man had frightened Harry with all his going on and on about how curious Harry's wand was.

Harry didn't care how curious his wand was, he just wanted to leave the spooky old shop as soon as possible. He was vastly relieved when Hagrid bustled Harry out of the shop, but that feeling didn't last for long.

Soon they were at the train station, where Hagrid settled Harry on the train and told him how to get back to the Dursley's. "If those muggles give you any problems, just send me an owl, Harry."

Harry didn't notice the curious stares people were given him. He was to frighten about what Vernon would do to him. His feelings were soon justified. Vernon was waiting for him at the train station. He didn't yell or threaten Harry, which frightened him more then the yelling would have done.

He soon knew why Vernon had been so silent. He was waiting to get Harry home before punishing him for the pigs tail Dudley had grown. Also, now that Harry would be going to Hogwarts, he couldn't be hit in the face, arms, or anywhere else the marks could be seen.

Once in the house, Vernon threw Harry done the cellar stairs after punching him in the gut. Harry's arm gave way with an audible snap. "You deserve this your worthless piece of crap. Petunia, take Harry to the hospital, tell them it's all your fault, you never should have sent the boy done into the cellar to get his mothers diary. You just wanted Harry to have something that could answer your questions better. Don't forget to wring your hands." They were at the hospital for little less then four hours. Harry had a scarlet colored cast on his arm now.

When they came back, Vernon punished him for the cost of his hospital bills, being careful not to hit his face. Harry soon fell unconscious from the pain. He woke up days later in the cupboard under the stairs. HE didn't know how much time had past. He only knew that his chest was covered in bruises and that it hurt too much to take anything but a shallow breath. He couldn't move because of the pain.

Petunia came to check on him, and when she saw he was awake, she made him get out of the cupboard. "UP boy, Up" she screeched. "While you were napping the chores have piled up, you have to do the dishes, paint the fence, and mow the yard."

He was still mowing the lawn when Vernon pulled up into the driveway.
