Harry entered the kitchen, which was connected to the small dining room where everyone was eating peaceful. As he sat down, the Dursley's finally took notice of him by taking quick glance at him. As Harry was reaching for a piece of bread to butter, there was a clatter; someone had apparently dropped his or her fork. Harry looked up to see three pairs of eyes staring at him. Maybe they're acting like this because I'm not wearing my glasses or maybe because I look physically different. Harry thought. After a few seconds everyone continued as if nothing happened. Surprisingly during the meal not a single word was said. When Harry finished he wasn't even stopped by Uncle Vernon to be given the list of chores for the day, which Harry thanked greatfully. So Harry spent the rest of the day in his room reading over his past year's books and fiddling for the phoenix necklace, occasionally staring at it once in a while. When dinner came by it passed just like how breakfast did, so Harry didn't say a thing. After he finished, Harry felt very sleepy so he decided to turn in early tonight for a change, even though it was only 7:30 pm.

"Wormtail?" called Voldemort, sitting on his throne.
"Y – Yes, m – m – master?" mumbled a short balding man, stepping in front of a throne, with a man in black robes sitting in it.
"I want you to bring Harry Potter, here tonight. Right now!" ordered Voldemort, making everyone in the room, wonder with curiosity.
"Wh – Why, my lord?" asked Wormtail, trembling in front of Voldemort. Who stared at him angrily.
"Are you questioning me, Wormtail?" yelled Voldemort clearly angry for such a question being asked. But smiled slyly as he watched Wormtail shake with fear.
"N – N – No, master! I would never dream of it. I was just wondering why now, of all times?" asked Wormtail, trying to chose his words careful, not to make his master any angrier.
"I'm glad you asked. It shows that somebody within this bunch of pathetic group of wizards has some brains to wonder what genius plans I have. To answer your question, Wormtail. You see, the protection wards that surround that muggle house he lives in, has to be recast every 15 years to renew its strength. Since the Potter boy is now 15 yrs old as of today from what I understand the wards will at their weakest until they are reactivated." answered Voldemort happily, surveying the Death Eaters gathered at their meeting nodding in agreement with his plan.
"Yes, course master. You are as always, brilliant." replied Wormtail, now understanding his master's plan.
"Yes, I know. I sometimes even scare myself with my genius. Hahahahaha… Go and bring me the boy! And take two others if you like." he ordered Wormtail. Wormtail stood up to leave, but was stopped by his master's voice. "Oh and one more thing, Wormtail…" said Voldemort pulling out his wand and pointing it at him, "Never question my plans and order again. Crucio!" With that Wormtail crumpled to the floor shaking violently from the pain.
************************************************************************
At this point Harry's scar was burning so much that he bolted upright from his bed and felt his scar still burning. They're coming tonight. I've got to warn Dumbledore. Harry thought quickly jumping out of bed and grabbing a piece of parchment and quill. After finishing the message rather hastily he folded it and went to Hedwig who was sitting on the windowsill. "Sorry girl, but I need you to deliver this to Dumbledore right now. It's urgent!" asked Harry. Hedwig lifted her leg so he could tie it, and when he was done, she took flight and disappeared in the night sky. Harry quickly came back to reality and rushed to grab his wand, which was hidden under the floor panel. After getting it, Harry looked at the clock and it only read 8:15 pm, he had been asleep for only 45 minutes, so he had no way of knowing when the attack was going to take place, except that it was tonight.
Harry didn't have to wait very long; there was an explosion at the front door. Harry quickly grabbed his wand and ran out of his room. He practically jumped down the flight of stairs, to find three black robed men with wands pointed at the Dursley's, who were scared out of their wits at the moment.
"Where is Harry Potter?" demanded the shortest one, which was Wormtail.
"I'm right here, Wormtail!" barked Harry from behind, pointing his wand at the three intruders. What am I thinking? There's three of them and one of me. Thought Harry realizing his situation. As the three Death eaters turned around, a little surprised that he was right behind them.
"Ah. Hello, Harry. You seemed to have changed a lot since the last time I saw you. My master would like to speak to you. So are you coming peacefully or do we have to get rough?" asked Wormtail, stepping forward hoping to frighten Harry. But Harry wasn't falling for it, he was going to stand his ground and not show any fear.
"I can't say the pleasure is mines. And I would rather take on a dragon bare-handed then go with you to your snake-face master." replied Harry, hoping to throw him off balance. Wormtail was clearly a little surprised by Harry's brave reply.
"Very well. Have it your way. Get him!" shouted Wormtail at his aides, while pointing his wand at Harry. "Crucio!" yelled Wormtail, while his two aides fired the same thing. Harry dodged the three curses just in time, thanks to his Quidditch seeker skills, while counter attacking with, "Expelliarmus!" then rolling side wards and catching his wand then shouting "Stupefy!" Catching the Death eater on Wormtail's right, with both spells. Harry quickly ducked behind the kitchen door, quickly catching his breath.
"You know. You're much better then you did at the end of last year, at the third task. Although it's a petty you couldn't save that boy. Hahahaha…" laughed Wormtail, from the hallway. This made Harry very angry and he could feel the anger and energy grow in him. Completely unaware at that moment to Harry was that his eyes were glowing white, completely covering his eyes in white light. (A/N: A better visual idea would be 'Disney's Gargoyles when their eyes light up. This is the best other way of describing it. Sorry.) Harry quickly burst through the door he was hiding behind, and shouted, "Reducto!" powered by his anger. As Harry burst out of the kitchen to attack him, Wormtail was about to hit him with another curse until seeing Harry's eyes he froze with fear. When Wormtail looked into Harry's eyes expecting to see the same green eyes, instead both eyes were glowing bright white; he couldn't even see the pupils of his eyes. All he could see was two glowing white eyes filled with fury and anger staring right at him. What's going on? Wormtail quickly thought, before he was hit with the spell that Harry just threw at him, sending him across the hallway into the far wall.
What's going on? Why are these people here, and why are they after Harry? Thought Aunt Petunia still hiding in the corner of the living room with her husband and son. Just then the short man Harry called, 'Wormtail' flew across the hallway and slammed into the wall making a huge indentation, then crumpling to the floor. Then Harry came into view as he walked up to the small man on the floor. Her eyes nearly pooped out of their sockets, at seeing Harry's eyes. What happened to Harry's eyes? They're glowing white, and I'm guessing from the look on his face right now, he is very very angry. Thought Aunt Petunia as she could only watch as Harry took on three men by himself.
Harry walked up to Wormtail, who was now lying on the floor struggling to get up. Harry quickly stopped him with a swift kick across Wormtail's face and then planting his foot on his neck securing him to the floor. Glaring down at Wormtail with his eyes now glowing with more intensity and disgust. I have got to control myself; if I kill Wormtail, Sirius can be declared innocent. But we won't be able to get any information from him, that we can use against Voldemort. Harry thought. "You'll live, only so that I can have my godfather cleared of the crimes that you did, Wormtail." Harry said coldly with Wormtail under his foot, as his eyes returned back to normal, and his sudden rush of energy was returning to normal. "Crucio!" came a voice from behind. Damn. I forgot there were three Death eaters, and I only got two of them. Harry quickly thought to himself as he fell to ground shaking violently with pain from being hit with the curse. Wormtail stood up shakily, catching his breath from being nearly choked to death from Harry's foot on his throat.
"You'll suffer for nearly suffocating me, Potter." said Wormtail standing over Harry and pointing his wand on him and yelling, "Crucio!" Now Harry was feeling two Cruciatus curses at once, it was the most painful thing that the ever felt in his life. After a minute the two curses were lifted. Harry could barely hear the conversation between Wormtail and the other Death eater while they kept their wands on him, incase he tried anything. "What should we do with these muggles?" asked the Death eater looking at the Dursleys. "Well, we should have some fun with them first before we kill them. Since our master wouldn't like us passing up an opportunity to kill muggles." replied Wormtail.
No! I can't let them do that. As much as I hate them, I can't let Voldemort or any Death eaters kill anyone anymore. He has already ruined my life by taking away my parents. He even goes so far as to have a friend killed right in front of me. I can't let them do this! Harry thought to himself as he struggled to stand up. Ever so slowly Harry got to his feet trying to hold his balance, unnoticed by the two Death eaters, who were trying to figure out how they could torture the muggles. Again unnoticed by Harry his eyes were once again glowing even a brighter white then before, and a gradual white glow started forming around him which was now lighting up the room. A strange wind started blowing around Harry making his hair fly upwards like a raging fire. As the light and wind continued Harry's hair glowed white for a second then grew to its shoulder length and turned silver, also his five bangs of gold lightning hair appeared, still shimmering with light. All his hair was now flying up making it appear like a burning fire was on his head, only it was entirely silver and his gold bangs would flicker in front of it. The only people in the room who noticed what was happening to Harry were the Dursleys, since they were facing him and could only stare in shock at what was happening to their nephew.
Meanwhile the Death eaters raised their wands finally deciding on what they were going to do. "Now!" they shouted together, both saying, "Crucio!" The Dursleys were brought out of their daze as the two men in front of them shouted something. The jets of light flew across the room and were about to hit the Dursleys when the beams of light hit a magical shield and disappeared. The two Death eaters were shocked. Who put up that shield? they wondered, as they knew the muggles couldn't have. As they were staring at the Dursleys completely baffled, they noticed their shadows on the far wall in front of them, and wondered what was producing that light. They turned on their heels to see Harry was standing up, his eyes glowing white with power just like before, and a growing white aura was surrounding his entire body. They also noticed his hair was silver and gold, which was like a burning fire flying upwards, while his aura was growing and making him levitate about a few inches off the ground. Wormtail and the other Death eater panicked at what they were seeing, they said the first curse that came to their minds, "Avada Ked…" But neither one got to finish the curse, because at that moment Harry's glowing aura erupted. Suddenly a flash of the blinding white light engulfing the entire living room, blinding everyone in it. A second later the light was going out of every window in the house. As the rays of bright white light came out of the windows, the whole house was encased in a dome of white light a second later. The dome of light flashed for a second and vanished, taking the entire house with it, all that was left was the garden and the dirt outline of where the foundation used to be. As of that moment the house on 4 Privet Drive was gone.
************************************************************************
Ms. Figg's HouseAt 8:15 pm the dark detectors that were placed on the Dursley's house for Harry's protection went haywire, alerting Arabella Figg that there were Death eaters at the Dursley house. She was startled at first, because in all the time she was there, the alarms never went off. After a few seconds Arabella collected herself and immediately went into action, thanks to her auror training from her earlier years. She quickly went to a glass orb sitting on her desk in the study to see what was exactly happening at the Dursley's, incase there was just something wrong with the detectors or if there really was an emergency.
"Show!" shouted Arabella holding the glass orb. Immediately the orb swirled with color as an image appeared of the inside of the Dursley's house. (A/N: Similar to a security camera.) The first image on the orb was the front door lying on the floor after being blasted off. Then showing three Death eaters stand there holding their wands, and pointing them at the Dursley's cowering in the corner of the living room. The next image was Harry talking to the intruders and then starting a duel with the three men. Is he insane? What is he thinking taking on three Death eaters? I've got to do something. Thought Arabella loudly to herself. Just as she was about to grab her wand, she was stopped by seeing Harry skillfully dodge the curses and taking out one Death eaters within the first few seconds. Wow! Where did he learn to duel like that? Arabella thought as she watched Harry duel. Then she saw him hide behind the kitchen door. After a few seconds the door burst open again, and Harry came out pointing his wand a Death eater but what really scared her was when she saw his eyes. His eyes were glowing white and they were sending shivers down Arabella's spine just looking at them. Suddenly the glass orb sparked and then shattered in her hands, falling to the ground. Arabella could only stare in shock, Great Merlin… What power? Harry's eyes were glowing. He must be producing a tremendous amount of magical energy to have it show in his eyes, and to shatter my observation orb, she thought. "I have to get over there, now!" Arabella said loudly. She rushed to her fireplace mantle and opened a rectangular box containing her wand. She quickly grabbed it and ran out the door to 4 Privet Drive, to save Harry and the Dursleys.
As she approached the Dursley's house after running from her house which was down the block, she came to a stop just two feet away from their fence line. There was an explosion of white light that shot out of every window from the house. A second later a dome of bright white light surrounded the entire house of the Dursleys. The brightness of the light was so great, Arabella had to shield her eyes from it. After the light vanished and her eyes readjusted to the darkness of the night, she was shocked beyond anything else. Arabella could only stare at the now vacant lot of 4 Privet Drive, where the Dursley's house used to stand. All that was left was a straight-line hole of where the foundation of the house that used to have a house on it, once was. What the bloody hell, just happened? The entire house is gone. Thought Arabella completely dumbfounded as she stood there in shock. "I have got to tell Albus, what happened," she said turning around and sprinting to her home's fireplace.
After getting in her house, "Incendio!" she cried pointing her wand at the fireplace and grabbing some powder from a jar on the mantle. After throwing it into the fireplace, she said louder than necessary, "Hogwarts, Headmaster's Office." A second later, Albus Dumbledore's head appeared in the fire. His face was filled with urgency and worry like he knew what was happening.
"Albus! Death eaters… Harry… Dursley house… GONE!" stuttered Arabella, and finally shouting out the last part.
"Yes, I know Arabella." replied Albus calmly to the hysterical woman.
A/N: So what do you think? Wow the entire house is gone? And I wonder where they disappeared to? To much of a cliffhanger? PLEASE READ & REVIEW
