The New Me
Chapter 7
The 'Dursley's'…have…NOT changed! Part 1
I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry for how late this is! A lot of emphasis on the SO. I had to finish this book for school (it turned out being 24 pages long, even in 12 font! ((If you want to read it, it's under my friends FictionPress name, LoveTaWrite, he says it's his, but it's really mine))), then I had a small case of writers block! So this chapter probably the last one that you'll have to wait so long for, as I'm going to try to write chapters quickly, that way, I'll get to the action-us part of the story. Yea, the action-us part. Ha ha.
The chapter!
'Knock knock' the door knocked at Vernon Dursley's household. "Boy, get it…" he started, but then trailed off, remembering happily that Harry was no longer there. He got up from his quite comfortable spot on the creaky armchair. It was very old, and anyone could foretell that a new chair was in the 'family's' future. Vernon sat in it every day.
He reached the door, and turned the handle. As soon as the door was opened a crack, a French accent said, "Can I come in? Thank you!" he shoved open the door, and strutted in.
"Wow, nice place you've got here, don't mention it," the boy seemed to always answer his own questions or just give the welcoming without Vernon saying thanks.
"Who are you?" Vernon asked, staring intently at the boy. He didn't look familiar at all.
"Oh, did I not introduce myself? Damien Seeking, pleasure, oh, thank you!" He said all this before Vernon's hand reached his. The Damien character pulled his hand away and started walking around, looking in cabinets and cupboards, saying,
"So, is Harry Potter here by any chance, I need to see him about his school work,"
"The boy ain't here, besides, he goes to the…wait, you must be one of his teachers from that freaky school he used to go to!! Get outta my house!" Vernon started growling with anger.
"Um, not exactly, fat guy. You see, I…" he had already taken off the voice spell, and he now took off the body spells, "…am him. And I see you haven't changed one bit. So, where are the flower and the dud?"
Vernon's face was turning the reddest color that Harry (when he looks like Harry, he is Harry) had ever seen on a living person in his life.
"Potter! Wha-whe-but! The people at your 'school' said you were dead. That's why Petunia left me! She ACTUALLY cared about you! Dudley too!" Vernon was now purple.
"S-so Aunt Petunia and Dudley actually cared about me? But they were always mean to me! It doesn't make any sense!"
"You idiot! Petunia only gave you so you could avoid me so much! And Dudley, well Dudley was always pushing you around so I would think he hated you."
"So, so they aren't here?" Harry was now acting kind of stupid.
Vernon's face turned white now, "YES YOU STUPID IDIOT! THEY ARE NOT HERE! I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN A LITTLE SMARTER WHEREVER YOU WERE!"
"Well, sorry! I'm in a little bit of a shock right now! So explain why Dudley was being nice to me, but then he claimed I put a spell on him! You made me erase his memory! How did he remember that I was even here? How did he know that he didn't hate me?"
"It was because your freaking memory thing didn't work! You did it, but a day later he remembered what happened! You must be the bottom of your class at that school of yours! How do your friends stand that?"
Harry slowly advanced on Vernon, he being 16 now, he toward over him. "Do you even know what happened to me in my fifth year at Hogwarts? Let me give you the story. In the first week I nearly died in a fiery accident involving my bed, a spell, and my 'friends'. Haven't figured it out yet? Let me tell you. I didn't have ANY friends in my fifth year! They all turned against me! They all thought I was a murderer! My fifth year was torture! Literally! I was burned on the ceiling nearly every day! I was beat up, burned, ridiculed you name it, I got it."
Vernon stared at him maliciously. "So I was right! You are evil! You know, I can get you arrested now!" he started laughing maniacally, and dashed toward the phone. Harry quickly took out his wand, and shouted "Impedimenta!" Vernon slowed down, intensely.
"You know, I have four choices. I could kill you, I could torture you then kill you, I could just torture you, or I could leave you alone…which should I do…?"

You decide which one. First ten reviews given will be the ones I consider. Long time reviewers count as two votes!
Reviewers will be posted next half of the chapter.
If Harry does kill him, he might become evil, I also might do a parallel story in which the opposite happens, depending on who will stop reading it if they're idea doesn't win or something.

… "K-killing, r-right?" Vernon said shakily.
Harry grinned evilly, raising his wand, when a thought shot through his head.
"'Maa! Maa!'" baby Harry sat in his crib, staring at his lifeless mother. His wails were echoing off the basement walls, where he had fallen when the evil cloaked person had destroyed his house, his family. A thought, a somewhat meaningless thought at the time, ran through his mind. A useless baby thought, that would someday affect his life 'Never, will I kill a persons Ma Ma or Da Da.'
Harry lowered his wand, his eyes wet with tears. "I-I can't. I cou-couldn't kill someone, especially someone who has kids and a wife." Unaware that Vernon had heard him, he ran out of the house, sobbing uncontrollably. Vernon, stood, speechless inside, wondering what kind of abnormal thought had gone through his head to change his mind. Oh well he thought, I'm not dead at least! He sat down, and turned on the T. V. still thinking he hated the boy. But deep inside him, a faint glow of respect formed for Harry. It was just one of those things you couldn't stop.
Yup! Finally! Ok, so first I was piled with homework in the last one or two weeks of school, then, you guessed it, Harry Potter 5! I read it all on Saturday, believe it or not! So here I am, finally posting it!
None and torture both tied so I will put torture in an alternate ending labeled TNM-Torture. If you really want me to kill him, leave a review in either of the two, and I will think about it!

… "Killing, right?" Vernon asked shakily.
"No, I'm really not that kind of person, but can you spell torture?" With that Vernon backed into a wall.
Regardless of the thoughts telling him to stop running through his head, Harry raised his wand, and yelled "Crucio! Imperio!" Vernon then began walking around in circles, doing the chicken dance while screaming uncontrollably. Harry forced out a laugh, but didn't really enjoy it. Well, he thought I'm just getting started…I think…
"Reducto!" He yelled, and Vernon flew into a wall. The impact made him vomit, while his head was screaming with pain. Just then, the memory of being tortured himself, by Ron, attacked him. He remembered how much pain he had been in and how he wished it to stop so intensely. With this retrospection in his mind, he looked at Vernon in disbelief. Did HE do that? If this kept up he was probably going to become the next Dark Lord. Rushed, he took all the curses off Vernon, then healed him up best he could. He then wiped his memory, and rushed out of the house…
Reviewers:
RookRaven: Thanks!
AmyPotter13: Yea, I really don't see Harry as the torturing or killing kind, but, Vernon has done a lot to him, and he's changed since his 'friends' abused him. But still, it's what the readers want!
MixedUpAgain: It's called Blue Skies, Green Grass. Don't laugh at the title, I couldn't think of anything. If you think of something, you can tell me in a review. And, as for your other questions, they will be answered as soon as Ron and Hermione figure out who he really is.
ZeonReborn: Well…if you really want it, then I MIGHT write it. Just later, ok?
Modesty and Madison twins: Okay…don't go taking over the world on me!
Lily Rose Evans: Okay, so it wasn't soon, but…?
Little gin blossom: No, you don't, I kinda feel the same way, but it's the same thing as AmyPotter13, Vernon HAD done a lot, not to mention the other Gryffindors…so he must have felt a little vengeance.
luneproject: don't worry, I don't blame the religion for what happened, I blame the people that did it. Hope you like!
Bookworm2000: I got both of those books! It seems like so long ago…oh, wait, it was *grins sheepishly*. So, you think we should feed Uncle Vernon to King Arthur in a skillet? The thing is, you know, we'd need an extra large skillet!
ATOM: Thanks!
