Harry Potter and the Summer of Change

If you happened to look into a house on number 4 privet drive you eyes would witness a site that would make you feel sympathy even though the person in the room is opposed to pity of any kind. A boy was sitting slumped deep into a chair while clutching a small undescript mirror with a look of utmost anguish on his face which would invoke a stirring of the heart for anyone who happened to glance at him and would arouse the curiosity of a any passing stranger to inquire about this persons past which causes him to feel such deep and dark feelings. Well this was no ordinary boy he was Harry Potter also known as the person who had vanquished the great lord voldermort at the height of his powers over the wizarding a nd muggle world alike. He had thought another easy victory was in store for him when he tried to go and kill the potters who opposed him he came one dark night and with the killing curse murdered Harry's parents but when he tried to finish off Harry the curse he used rebounded back onto him because of the sacrifice his mother made for him, and he was reduced to nothing but a wraith and so voldermorts reign of power came to an end meanwhile Harry was sent to his muggle relatives by albus dumbledore the headmaster of the school (hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry)who was perhaps the greatest of his time now that voldermort was gone. He did this to ensure the protection of harry while voldrmort was still at large. And so Harry grew up as an orphan in the dursleys house knowing noting of his great heritage but s shocking reminder came on his eleventh birthday when Harry was informed of his acceptance to Hogwarts. After much ado he ended up going to school as a wizard and he made two best friends Ron weasley and hermione granger, but voldermort came back to try to get an elixir to restore him to a body/immortality and he was thwarted by Harry potter and again in his second year Harry saved Ron's sister Ginny from being possessed by voldermort. In his third he met his godfather and learned the truth about the death of his parents. In his fourth year though he was tricked into competing in the triwizard tournament and when he was taken to voldermort hiding place and forced to participate in a dark arts ritual which resulted in voldermort getting a body and then Harry managed to escape from him and get back to school and then in his fifth year Harry learned that a connection ran between him and voldermort and he learned how to shield his mind from him but was tricked into going to the department of mysteries with his friends and there he found the death eaters of voldermort trying to get a prophecy concerning him and voldermort Harry destroyed it and they got into a giant duel with them and then help arrived and Harry's godfather died in the process and when Harry gave chase to the killer voldermort showed up and dumbledore saved him forcing voldermort to leave and the world then realized that voldermort had come back and that Harry was right all along Harry heard a prophecy that said he had to kill voldermort or then he would kill him. Now it's the summer and Harry has been moping because no one treats him like an adult and he is very sad about the death of his godfather and he doesn't know how to cope on top of everything he has had to deal with now this every nightmare of his had come true his closest confidant in the world who had become like a second father to him had passed on he was listless and depressed and there was nothing anyone could do to make him snap out of his mood. He had visitors and cheery presents from everyone he knew and Remus Lupin had been coming over like every day to try to talk to him he seemed to feel that it was his responsibility to get Harry up and over his current state and while he was a welcome company Harry didn't feel any connection other then moderately close friend/confidant though remus didn't seem to think so as he had told Harry the day before when he had come for his daily visit. "Hey Remus" said Harry dully when he saw who was at the door. "May I come in?" Remus asked in an oddly formal way. "Sure" said Harry again with no expression on his face whatsoever. "Listen Harry we need to talk" said Remus with a serious expression on his face. Harry gave no sign of apprehension as he indicated a seat next to the desk. Remus sat and turned the chair to face Harry. "Listen we at the order are all worried about you and your friends are going crazy hermione cries all the time she and Ron are very worried and they were especially hurt about how you gave them the cold shoulder when they came to visit you last week plus your other friends from the D.A. write and you don't even bother opening the letters let alone answer them so answer me this Harry we are very sad too about Sirius's loss and we mourned but that's where it stops they are dead you are alive that's the difference why you don't mourn all day because you have to liven death is a natural part of life the ying of the yang if you must and you are desecrating Sirius's memory by not respecting and understanding that they are dead and you are alive". Remus finished with a slightly raised and frustrated voice. "Harry answer me please," said Remus in pleading tone. "You don't understand," muttered Harry in a low voice. "Let me understand," said Remus standing up and putting two hands on Harry's shoulders in a powerful grip. "You can't understand me, no one who is alive can anymore," said Harry "Give me a chance just one I know I'm not Siriusand I'm not trying to take his place " Remus exploded. "Sorry remus but I can't not now," said Harry with note finality in his tone seemingly unperturbed by Remus's outburst. He lay down on his bed and turned over whispering softly "I miss him so much all the time it's like a vice around my heart squeezing oh so tight". "I know" whispered remus now he didn't have the heart do say anything more after bearing witness for just a second at Harry's grief. He squeezed Harry's shoulder gently once turned quietly and left the room.After Remus left harry once again tried to contact Sirius through the mirror and as in the past it didn't work.Harry now felt as if the whole world didn't understand him all he neede was a bit(maybe a lot) of time and then he would be okay till then he kept using the mirror.
