Chapter 2: The Southern Samurai
The park was hot during the summer but Harry, Hermione, and her mysterious bodyguard managed to find a bench in the shade of a tree. Harry and Hermione sat and after looking around the park a few times the boy sat down on the bench across from them.
"Harry this is Cameron Nightarrow, he's an exchange student from America. That was what my parents and I were doing over there on Dumbledore's behalf." Hermione said brightly.
Harry looked over at Cameron and the American gave him a crisp nod.
Hermione snorted, "Cam, stop it I know you're a big softy and just trying to put on a show."
Cameron's expression shifted from the set scowl to a grin, "Aww come on Hermione you ruined it."
After this little exchange Cameron became much more sociable and Harry actually began to like him.
"Anyway, Harry," Hermione said, "there's something I need to tell you." At this Cam grunted a laugh and lay down on the bench. "Harry, from third year until fourth year Ron and I dated. Then over that summer we broke up. Last year when you were being a bit, well, snappish we decided that we became too good of friends to have that kind of relationship. Plus I realized that Harry, I really umm I really like y...."
Suddenly a cluster of people had appeared around the two benches. It was Dudley and his entourage which had grown over the summer to include people from different high schools. Harry knew that this was trouble and began to count the number of people in the gang he settled at about 17, he couldn't take on 17 people.
"Well, well looks like my faggot cousin actually has a girlfriend. Or wait do you have a dick under that skirt, bitch?"
All of Dudley's minions laughed around him, it was like Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle except multiplied by six, not good odds.
Dudley's hand reached down towards Hermione, she shrank into Harry and when Harry saw what Dudley's hand was moving towards he reached for his wand. To his horror he realized that it was in his trunk, how could he be so stupid he thought. Hermione was beginning to panic now and gave a small whimper as Dudley's hand was less than an inch from grabbing one of the more sensitive areas on her body. Suddenly his had stopped dead and his expression had gone from one of insane lust to one of shock.
Harry suddenly saw the reason for his cousin's abrupt change in attitude. Cam had apparently woken up from his nap and his expression was one of mild annoyance. He had caught Dudley by the fat wrist and was holing him back from his prize. Dudley suddenly regained his composure and brought his other fist into Cam's eye. Cam gave a mild grunt and turned his head to look back at Dudley. Harry's ears were filled with the sound of a waterfall now, though he didn't know why.
Hermione looked up "Can you hear it?" she whispered. Harry nodded. "I'll explain later." She continued in a hushed tone.
Cameron was then on the receiving end of another one of Dudley's punches. Cameron looked around again his expression had become one of great annoyance and he brought his own fist into Dudley's face. Dudley fell to the ground, out cold and Cam turned to face the rest of the gang.
Harry was surprised he didn't pull his knife or wand with this many on one Harry wouldn't blame him. Cam rushed into action kicking one of the members in the chest. The boy wheezed and then came back Cam caught his fish and rammed his own fist into the boy's elbow it snapped and bent the wrong way. The boy let off an ear splitting scream. Cam kneed him in the gut and he fainted from the pain. Cam groaned as the remaining boys came at him at once he looked for a moment as if he might draw his wand.
Instead, Cam reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of small muggle fireworks and a lighter. Cam lit the fireworks and threw them at the leading boys' faces.
BAM!
Four boys fell to the ground clutching their burnt and bleeding faces. The other boys stopped as Cam pulled out more fireworks. They all turned and ran not wanting to end up like their hospital needy friends.
"Phew that almost sucked." Cam said. "Eat southeastern American justice my friends."
Harry realized that his mouth was hanging open and promptly shut it.
"Figure it's about time to hit the old dusty trail out of here," Cam said with a brief yawn, "I can then explain to you why you heard that rushing noise. Come on grab my shoulders each of you."
Harry and Hermione got up and grabbed one of Cam's shoulders.
"Gate," Cam said firmly and suddenly Harry landed in a grassy backyard. "Welcome to my house Harry," Hermione said with a grin.
