Chapter 35

Harry entered Dumbledores' office. Sirius was with him keeping his thoughts to himself this time. Dumbledore looked up from his desk and was surprised to see that Harry no longer looked liked the sixteen almost seventeen year old he was but someone who had been forced to grow up way too fast.

"To what do I owe this surprise?" Dumbledore asked.

"I want to talk about my security over the summer." Harry said.

"Aw yes, I was planning on talking to you about that. I only want you to stay at your Aunt and Uncles for a week, I think that we are going to have at least two people guarding you at all-," Dumbledore said before Harry cut in.

"No."

"What was that Harry?" Dumbledore asked.

"I said no, Sir. I have my own ideas for my security this summer." Harry said.

"Well then lets hear them." Dumbledore said with more then a little uncertainty in his voice.

"I will be staying at my relatives house until I turn seventeen, at which time I will be taking up board at the Leaky Cauldron. As of right now I'm leaving Number 12, Grimmauld Place to the Order. After the war is over I really could care less about what happens to the place. I've cleared out everything that I want so feel free to trash the place. Wether I'm at the Leaky Cauldron or my relatives I don't want a guard. I can handle myself. I'm giving you my warning right now that if I find, or sense, an Order member guarding me, I will go and live somewhere where you can't find me. Is that clear?" Harry finished.

"Yes." Dumbledore answered knowing from the look in Harrys' eyes that he would do everything he had just said. "I would like to know what you expect to do if Voldemort attacks you before you turn seventeen?"

"I don't really care as long as no one I know or care about dies. The Ministry can throw me in Azkaban or where ever it is that they're keeping prisoners these days. In fact I might go and hunt the Bastard down so that I can find peace." Harry said as Sirius nudged his hand trying to make Harry feel better. "Good day, Headmaster."

Dumbledore watched with sad eyes as Harry left his office. Harry Potter was gone. Dumbledore knew that the thing Harry wanted most now was to kill Voldemort and then die himself, and Dumbledore thought that there was a great possibility that he might get his wish.

As Harry sat on the Hogwarts Express heading back to London he was surrounded by his friends, the weather was nice and Ginny didn't seem to upset about breaking up. Any other kid would have been having the time of their lives, but Harry was hardly talking. Sirius and Harry were discussing things at great length. Mainly his plan for defeating Voldemort.

When the train pulled into the station Harry was glad to see that only Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were the only ones there to pick up Ron and Ginny. Harry reached is sensing power out to it's fullest extent and was glad to find that Dumbledore had kept his word.

After Mrs. Weasley pulled Harry into a Weasley hug he was free to go. It only took a couple minutes of talking to convince his Aunt and Uncle that Sirius was to come too. Harry looked at the barrier between platforms nine and ten, and thought about how his life a changed since he went through the first time.
