Disclaimer: This is pointless, everybody knows that I don't own this!
A/N: I don't know whether to hate my readers or love them. They always know how to make me update even though I think I don't have the time. I regret to announce that this is the last chapter of this story. But have no fear, I will have the first chapter of the sequel out as soon as possible (either later tonight or tomorrow). I do hope that all of you will read it. BTW, does the rating need to go up on this story?
Thanks to:
spell: Thank you so much for your review! I hope you enjoy this chapter and hope you read the sequel ::hint,hint::
nikki: Thanks! Here's more!
ryleeblack: This chapter will probably be longer. Probably be longer, you can tell I'm just making this up as I go along. The only plan I've got is in my head, which isn't very assuring. And BTW, it is after PoA.
Ani: Thank you! I will keep writing and hopefully you'll keep reading.
Kestrel: Thanks! Hope you like this one too!
Evil Willow: That's a good idea, but I don't think I can fit it into this story. But I might be able to use it in another. Thanks!
Istalksiriusonweekends: It takes place after the third book. What hints were there to it taking place after the fourth?
katie: Thank you so much! I hope you like this chapter as well!

======================================================================================================
Harry watched Vernon slowly advanced with a gleaming butcher knife in his hand. He's finally going to put me out of my misery, but knowing him, he'll probably make it as painful as possible.
Just as Vernon was about to thrust the knife into an open wound on Harry's broken leg, the chime of the doorbell was heard and then voices. Those voices sound very familiar.
"Where is my godson?!?" one of them shouted.
"We demand to see Harry at once!" the other yelled.
Sirius! Professor Lupin!
Before he could even react, Vernon had grabbed him by the back of the neck and brought him to the landing of the staircase. "Come any closer, and I swear I'll kill him." At this, he brought the knife to Harry's neck.
Sirius couldn't believe what he was seeing. He immediately felt the rage he had been suppressing numb into a state of shock. He could tell by just looking at Harry that if he did not receive medical attention now, he was not going to live whether Vernon sliced his throat or not. He instinctively took a step forward.
"Get back I say!" Vernon said while letting the knife slice deeply into Harry's shoulder which caused him to shout out in pain, for the shoulder had already been dislocated. Vernon quickly moved to put the knife back to Harry's throat, but he was two slow.
"EXPELLIARMUS!" Sirius and Remus both shouted at the same time, and the knife flew out of Vernon's hand.
Remus then Stunned the Dursleys while Sirius rushed immediately to Harry's side.
"S-S-Siri-us," Harry said weakly.
"Don't worry, Harry. It's okay. You'll be okay now," Sirius reassured him. "Try to get some rest."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Three days later)
Harry had been asleep the entire time he had been there. Madam Pomfrey had said that he would most likely wake up within a day, three days ago. Sirius was worried. He barely left Harry's bedside; he wanted to be there when he woke up.
Sirius noticed Harry beginning to tense up. He started to thrash about muttering "no, no" in his sleep.
"Harry?" Sirius tried to calm him down by placing a hand on his head and it seemed to work. He noticed Harry's eyes begin to flicker open.
"Sirius?" Harry said as if he were afraid to hope that he was safe with his godfather.
"Yeah, Harry, it's me," Sirius assured him. "I should probably call Madam Pomfrey to have her come and examine you." He made to get up, but a weak hand grasped his robes.
"Please, don't leave me," Harry pleaded faintly.
Sirius settled down on the bed beside Harry, took him into his arms, and gently rocked him back to sleep. "I never will again, my son."
THE END!
======================================================================================================
A/N: Okay, that wasn't very long, in fact I think it was a little shorter than usual, but I promise to have the sequel out soon. That is, if you want the sequel. You do want the sequel, right? Please Review!
