Chapter 2: The Single Curse

Harry was a bit frightened about the mirror incident. Seeing Voldemort was not what Harry had expected. Harry took a deep breath and went towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen was the usual normal Dursleys. Petunia was cooking up another breakfast, Vernon was on the table reading the newspaper, and Dudley was watching television. Harry was about to sit at the table, when he heard a local broadcaster come on the screen and interrupted Dudley's wresting show. Harry looked up to listen, and so did Petunia.

"We interrupt this broadcast to give you an important message. At 10:07 P.M. at King's Cross Station 4 people were assonated. Cops were unable to get on the scene at the time and we are still looking for more clues. This person is dangerous and we ask for you to not lurk around at night and keep a heads up. There was a stick left on the crime, although cops can't piece it out." Harry snorted with laughter. "If you have any information, please call 44-679-8321"

"What a load of rubbish." Uncle Vernon said, not looking up from the paper.

"Vernon shh!" Aunt Petunia snapped back.

"Hey, where did my show go?" said Dudley.

"Now back to your local Broadcasting shows," said the news reporter. Harry looked up. Now what? A stick, he thought, are they really that dumb? Harry was too eager to stay any longer; he grabbed a piece of toast with marmalade and ran up the stairs to his bedroom. In his bedroom, Harry went over to his desk and grabbed a quill and three pieces of parchment. Harry wrote on the first piece of parchment:

Dear Ron, What's going on? I saw the news and it said that someone has killed 4 muggles. I need information! Please inform me in and get me a copy of the Daily Prophet!
-Harry

Harry then folded the parchment and put it to the side; he took the next piece and wrote:

Dear Hermionie, It was nice seeing you yesterday, surreal but nice. What was with Malfoy? Are you crazy? Malfoy always calls you a mudblood and makes fun of you and makes you look like a fool! What are you thinking? Anyways I don't have time to mouth on about that! What I really want to know is, I watched the news and it said that 4 muggles were killed. What was left was a "stick" more as a wand! Anyways I need information! Please write back once you get this! Also send along any newspaper clippings...anything!
-Harry

Harry folded Hermionie's letter and grabbed the last piece of parchment. This last letter he addressed it to Dumbledore.

Dear Professor Dumbledore, As you probably know, four muggles were killed and I'm guessing with a single curse. I'm sure you know which one I am talking about... I am very confused right now and I don't know what is going on! I need answers, you once again have left me stranded here on Private Drive and I am worried! Please send me answers as soon as possible
-Harry

Harry's mind was racing. Things were going on too fast. Harry couldn't think of anything else to do. He had no one to talk to, no one who was a wizard like him and he wanted information fast. Harry tied the letters to Hedwig and sent her out into the morning sun. He watched her fly until she was out of sight. He thought for a couple minutes thinking what to do, Harry finally remembered that Mrs. Figg was nearby and was a squib. Harry didn't know how much she could help but he was going to try and see what she knows. He was about halfway out of his room, when he heard a swift noise and plump. Sitting on the edge of his bed was an owl. Harry raced to his bed and took the letter out of the owl's claws. He looked at the letter for less than a second, and ripped it open. It had Dumbledore's writing and it said:

Dear Harry, I know its not fair not knowing everything at the time, but I warn you, do not go to Mrs. Figgs house. I will repeat, do NOT go to Mrs. Figgs house. I should let you know that you need to pack. Attached is another letter for your aunt and uncle, give it to them immediately.
-Professor Dumbledore

Harry reread the letter a second time and then took out the next piece of paper. He read it fast. "Dear Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, Harry is leaving Private Drive and will not be returning for the rest of the summer. I have a specific team coming so don't freak. Harry will return next summer as usual.
Albus Dumbledore Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Harry went downstairs. He walked over to Aunt Petunia in the kitchen and said, "Aunt Petunia I have got-" Harry was cut off by Aunt Petunia herself.

She said, "Shut up boy! Don't you see I was talking? Anyways Vernon so Pam's like I have n-" Aunt Petunia was cut off by Harry once again.

"But I really need to give you something."

"Shut up boy, how many times do I need to tell you? What do they teach you in that school of yours? They certainly don't teach you proper manners for you have proved that. As I was saying Vernon, Pam said I have no cat in m-" Harry again interrupted his Aunt. Harry, expecting Petunia to nag on him for interrupting her again was caught surprised when it was Uncle Vernon who next spoke.

Nearly shouting he said, "Boy, I'm warning you, if you interrupt Petunia again, you're out of this house!" Speaking nicer again said, "Now Petunia, please continue."

"So Pam says I don't have a cat in my hous-" For the last time, Harry interrupted his Aunt.

"OK BOY. I WARNED YOU TO NOT INTERUPT YOU AUNT AND YOU DID. DIDN'T JUST SAY THAT YOU WERE GOING TO BE KICKED OUT OF THIS HOUSE IF YOU INTERUPTED YOUR AUNT AGAIN? DID I NOT JUST SAY THAT?" yelled Uncle Vernon. Dudley tuned his head from the television so that he could participate in this discussion and watch Harry get told off. Harry heard Dudley shrieking with laughter.

Harry said with a normal tone, "Yes you had said you would kick me out, but I really need to show you this."

"Out! OUT!" shouted Vernon.

"Please hunny don't distract the neighbors." Petunia added.

Harry lost control, "I NEED TO SHOW YOU THIS. PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE GAVE ME TH-"But before Harry could continue, Uncle Vernon's face tuned a nice shade of magenta.

"HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU NOT TO SPEAK OF YOUR ABNORMALTY IN THIS HOUSE?" Vernon roared back.

Aunt Petunia said again, "Please Hunny don't distract the neighbors! What is it boy?" Harry handed Aunt Petunia the letter, but she was distracted when she heard a thonk. Harry quivered, looked in the entry room and saw 5 wizards, actually 4 wizards and one witch. Harry noticed the faces as Alastor Moody, Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks, Kingsley Shacklebolt, and Elphias Doge. This crew was the same rescuers that came for Harry in his 5th year. Each one of them was holding a broomstick. Aunt Petunia screeched in horror, Vernon looked as though they were a cult, and Dudley was hiding behind a chair because he didn't want another tail.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Dursley. We are here for Harry although you already know. I'm Alastor Moody and this is Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks, Kingsley Shacklebolt, and Elphias Doge. So Harry go get your stuff then.

Harry replied back, "I didn't have time to pack my stuff."

"Well then I'll help you pack Harry, up you go." Tonks answered back. Climbing the stairs they reached Harry's room and Harry ran over to his bed. Hedwig had retuned and he was holding one letter. Tonks responded with a bit of a chuckle, "Well I guess I'll pack then." Harry sat on his bed and read the letter.

Dear Harry, We don't have time to talk but we'll be seeing you soon! What happened was in fact true and once you're here then we can go over everything. Don't be mad that we aren't writing some long letter!
-Ron and Hermionie

Harry didn't have time to be angry and fuss like he had last year. He put Hedwig in her cage and opened a lose floorboard. Inside the floorboard were Harry's wand, some books, a photo book of his parents, his invisibility cloak and other little things. He scooped them out and put them in his trunk. Tonks was in his closet taking things out. Tonks said, "We're flying again if you wanted to know. We have to put another invisibility spell and we are carrying your stuff like last time. It's best if you have Hedwig fly instead of packing her up with your things." Harry didn't say much while he was with Tonks. He noticed she dyed her hair the color of a grapefruit. She said, "Well is that it?"

Harry answered back, "I think so."

Tonks started dragging the suitcase but soon said, "Muggles must be very patient without magic." She pointed her wand at the trunk and said, "Locomotor Trunk." Within seconds, the trunk was in the air. Harry followed Tonks with his broomstick down the stairs. When Harry and Tonks met with the other wizards, he looked at Aunt Petunia's face. She looked petrified, Uncle Vernon looked disturbed, and Dudley was still under the table.

"Everything all set then?" said Lupin

"Everything is peachy" Tonks replied. Aunt Petunia was looking at the windows making sure that the neighbors were not looking.

"How are you supposed to get out of here?" sniggered Petunia.

"Broomsticks," muttered Kingsley. The horror on Aunt Petunia's face was priceless.

"And how the bloody hell are you supposed to fly on a broomstick and not get caught?" questioned Petunia.

"An invisibility spell." Tonks said.

"Come here Harry." Moody said. Harry walked over to Moody and Moody tapped Harry with his wand and Harry was quickly turning invisible. Aunt Petunia screamed. In minutes, all the wizards and Tonks were invisible. Petunia walked to the door and opened it. Making it look like she was looking out of the yard, Harry could tell that this was planned. They mounted their brooms and flew out of the house. Petunia shut the door and Harry took a last look of Private Drive before looking into the sky.

It felt so good to be on a broom again, Harry thought. He hadn't been on a broom in a while and it was nice. The warm sun was beating on them as they flew. The houses and trees looked like a dollhouse to Harry's view. "We need to go higher," yelled Elphias. Harry and the others gathered speed and flew upwards. Harry looked down and saw everything as Polly Pocket toys he'd seen on T.V. Everything was small. Moody made a turn to the right and the rest followed. It felt so good to be in the air again, Harry felt a warm breeze swift through his neck. Harry flew through the sky for about an hour. He had forgotten about the killing of the 4 muggles, Sirius's death, the Dursleys, everything. Flying had helped Harry forget his problems. Harry had also forgot to ask where they were going. He had no time now and before he could think about it, Moody went into a deep dive and they were landing.

When Harry had finally gotten safe on the ground, he looked at where he was and to his horror, he was back at Number Twelve Grimmauld Place. Harry's stomach churned and Harry was unable to take a step. He just looked at the place. It was Lupin who realized that Harry was not following the others into the place and he said, "You guys go in, Harry and I will be in in a second."

Lupin ran over to Harry and said, "You alright Harry?" Harry searched for words. He couldn't speak. Lupin had caught on to his drift though.

"I know Harry, this is probably the last place you want to be, but it's the only safe place. Harry a lot of things are happening and we aren't staying here long. Kreacher is gone as well. You are not staying here I promise." Harry took a deep breath and took his first step towards the house. He walked to the house, although each step was like stepping on fire. Lupin had followed. Harry finally got inside and everyone was waiting at the door.
