Chapter 8*~~ Harry's Wrath*~~



Recap;

Hermione screamed. She ran into the kitchen as they boys hopped up. An owl flew in and dropped a paper on the table. Harry turned to look. "The murderer Sirius Black has been captured and is now in custody." Harry heard the lady on the TV news station say clearly.

Sirius's picture was on each of the newspapers. "Shit."

"Harry," stuttered Hermione.

"What the hell!" screamed Harry. He dashed over to the Daily Prophet.

"Harry," Hermione tried again.

"What's the big deal?" asked Didley.

"WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL!" screamed Harry. Dudley shrank back.

"Harry Potter! He doesn't understand!" Hermione hissed loudly.

"You sound like Nagini," snapped Harry.

"Who-"

"Can one of you please tell me what is going on?!" yelled Dudley.

"Sirius Black is my godfather. He's innocent but. no one knows or believes other than myself, Hermione, Ron Weasley, Albus Dumbledore, Remus Lupin, and Arabella Figg," Harry said hastily.

"I thought your godfather was a murderer," Dudley said thickly.

"He isn't," Hermione stated. "Sirius was framed by Peter Pettigrew."

"I'm confused," Dudley said.

"Okay," Harry took a deep breath.

Half an hour later, the story had been said, Dudley understood. Unknwon to them a letter had been dropped.

"Harry, what's THAT?" asked Dudley pointing.

"Ron," Hermione muttered.

Harry took it and read.

'Padfoot is at Ron's. Come soon.

-Moony'

"Let's go to Ron's," Harry ordered. He and Hermione filled their trunks quickly.

"What about me?" asked Dudley.

"You COULD come." Hermione dribbled off. Dudley looked petrified.

"Or you could stay here alone. Just hurry!" Harry snapped.

"I'll come!"

"I'll go flag down the Knight Bus," Hermione offered.

"But isn't that for the NIGHT?!" asked Harry. Hermione knew EVERYTHING! That WAS true.

"It runs all day. It's only called the Knight Bus because eit was created by Sir Pippin- a knight. He really liked relaxing on beds and said tere should be beds on all magical buses. He also created the Sleepless Lion Potion and helped with the Time Turner." Hermione explained.

"You sound like you swallowed 20 history books, AGAIN," Harry said. Hermione blushed.

"Let's go," Dudley said excitedly.

Hermione led them outside. She waved her wand arm and the magical knight bus appeared. "Where is it?" asked Dudley, looking right through it.

"There," Harry pointed. Muggles it seemed, did not only not notice the sound of his bus but didn't look properly either. Dudley jumped, suddenly seeing a huge blue bus.

A boy with pimple stepped out and began his speech. He stopped seeing who it was. "'arry Potter?! You're back again!" (plz put in the correct accent. Same goes for Hagrid. I suck at typing accents. Ask my English teacher!)

"Hullo, Stan," Harry said. He paid for the three. Stan and Harry lifted the trunks in. Stan eyes his beautiful companion and his fat one.

"'oo 're they?"

"This is Hermione Granger, my 'little sister'. And this is my muggle cousin Dudley Dursley," Harry said quickly. "This is Stan."

"Hello," Hermione said pleasantly. Harry's thought flew back to Sirius.

"Where to?" asked a man from the driver's chair.

"The Burrow," Hermione supplied.

"The Weasley home?" Stan said as they started off. A bang sent them to a country-side road. They flew down.

"See the papers?" asked Ernie. "Finally caught that bloody murderer." Harry remembered te first time he had ridden he wacky bus. The time he had figured out Black was a wizard.

Windows shattered. "HARRY1" yelled Hermione. "Arcilas Repairo!" The glass flew back.

"Blimey," Ernie said. "What's got choo worke dup?"

"Black," Harry stated.

"Er, we heard 'bout your parents and 'im," Stan said. "Me mum works for the law office of the Ministry of Magic."

"That's great," sneered Harry.

"Harry!" scolded Hermione. Ernie and Stan looked abashed.

"Sorry, I. just can't. grasp this."

"What 'e did to your parents?" asked Ernie quietly.

"No," Harry said coolly. "What Pettigrew did to them. What he did to Sirius, what he took from me."

"What choo babbling 'bout?" asked Stan.

"Peter Pettigrew sold my parents to Voldemort and framed Sirius Black. They had changed secret-keepers in secret. Even Remus didn't know. I found out when he escaped."

"Choo feelin' 'k?" asked Stan, crookedly. They saw the Burrow out of the window.

"Thanks, we're going now," Harry said. Dudley followed him silently. Hermione waved and tossed them each a galleon.

They walked up the way. "Alohamora," Hermione whispered. Harry stormed in.

"SIRIUS LEE BLACK!" he yelled. Dudley slipped to the kitchen and sat on a chair.

Sirius twiddled with the wand he held. The Weasleys were eyeing him. "We need to write Dumbledore," Ron said.

"He knows," Ginny said.

"How would YOU know?"

"She's right Ron. I was let go to him for the day," Srius said. He ahd stopped the feud that was brewing.

"Hah," she said smugly.

"What are you going to do when Harry gets here?" asked Remus. Sirius froze, petrified.

"Oh, crap." He sank into the bed.

"SIRIUS LEE BLACK!" Harry's voice rang through the house.

"You have to face it sometime," Ron pointed out.

"The quicker, te better," Ginny said. "Trust me."

"You trusted me, I'll trust you," Sirius said. He walked down the stairs.

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!" screamed Harry as soon as he saw his godfather. "WHY DID YOU LET YOURSELF GET CAUGHT?!"

"Hey," Sirius said offended. He pouted. "I'm YOUR godfather. You can't reprimand ME!'

"I'll try," snapped Harry.

"I didn't LET myself get caught! Although it will be better this way."

"OH, and you think Fudge'll let you GO?! Are you CRAZY! Oh, wait, you ARE. That's why you almost got yourself caught in my third year! WHAT IF THEY CAN'T FIND PETTIGREW!"

"Calm down, Harry," Ginny said walking over and placing a timid hand on his shoulder. He breathed deep but relaxed with her touch.

Ginny herself felt tingly and warm.

"Hello, Weasleys!" Hermione greeted. She walked over to Ron and gave him a hug. She felt her heart race, as did Ron. Then she hugged Remus. He gave her a fatherly hug in return.

"Where's Dudley?" asked Harry suddenly. They met eyes.

"KITCHEN!" they said in unison. They rushed in the small room. Dudley sat there with a glazed look.

"Dudley?" said Ron softly.

"Your cousin?" Fred aid.

"The one who ate the toffee?" hissed George.

"Yup," Harry replied. This was said loudly enough to jerk Dudley from his daydream.

"Huh?" He looked around and jumped. He backed away. Eyes fixed on Sirius, Fred, and George.

"Ah, the toffee," Fred said.

"Sorry about that," George said.

"We needed to test it and mum would have killed us if we'd've given it to Harry."

"Not that we weren't nearly killed."

"That's right," Mrs. Wealsey said primly. She walked forward with a kind smiled. "Hello. You must be Dudley. Harry's told us abot you."

"That can't be good," Dudley muttered. Hermione broke into fits of giggles. Everyone looked at her.

"Sorry," she choked out.

"Okay." Sirius said.

"Dudley, this is Mrs. And Mr. Weasley, Fred, George, Bill, Charlie, Percy, Ron, Ginny, Sirius, Remus, and Ginny," Harry said. "This is Dudley."

"No!" cried Remus. Sirius slapped him. Then the two circled a very nervous Dudley.

"Watch yourself," Sirius advised. Then he turned. "Now! We need to write to the ministry! I'll need everyone here to sign. Or the Weasleys to!"

"Oh, joy," Bill said darkly.

"My hand is already full of cramps from out stupid potions essay for Snape!" Ginny wailed.

"We could hex him.." suggested Sirius. Remus hit him this time.

"He is a smile ball though," Remus commented.
