Chapter 2- Cruel Reminder

Tears cascaded down Harry's face. He missed Sirius so much. His sorrow kept in for so long was finally released. His outpouring of emotions was short- lived however. He furiously wiped the tears of pain and suffering away from his face, but to be only replaced by a mask devoid of any emotion. It's was killing him to keep everything hidden inside while slowly the pain ate away at his heart and soul.

It wasn't fair why should he, Harry, lose so many he cared for. Anger coursed through every fiber of his being. His hands clenched and unclenched as his knuckles whitened from the pressure of squeezing his hands into fists to hard. Little trickles of blood dripped as ten fingers dug into flesh. His face flushed red with all the rage building inside. Harry made a silent vow that he intended to keep. He vowed then and there he would get back at all those who hurt anyone, whether past present or future, that he loved and cared for. Two people definitely qualifying as someone who harmed or killed innocent lives, not just including those he loved, were Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange. He wanted to make them feel his pain. Make them scream in agony for being the murderers, destroyers of families and evil beings they are.

Finally realizing that being this angry would have many harsh repercussions if he didn't calm himself, he simmered down and let the breath that he was holding in released. With one last sigh he decided sleep would do him good, even knowing full well that dreamless sleep for himself was few and far behind. He still hoped for a good night rest. So clearing his mind of the last remnants of anger and pain that had clouded his vision, he climbed into bed and fell asleep.

Harry entered an all to familiar scene. The night his Godfather, Sirius died. He watched as Bellatrix blasted a spell at Sirius, and his face take on a mirror of surprise, the laughter not quite leaving his face as he slowly fell. Then watched as he fell through the veil, and the last time he would ever see Sirius alive.

"Noooooo!" he screamed in a desperate attempt to believe that this didn't occur.

"Sirius you can't be dead, come on please say it isn't so!" he knew he died but still comprehend that it actually happened.

Then a harsh evil voice spoke through the swelling darkness whispering, "He is just one of many more deaths to come, you will lose everyone you hold dear!" As its cackling laughter rang out all around him, Harry felt chills run through his body making the hairs on the back of his neck stand out.

The menacing laughter continued to swarm all around him as flashes of green light filled his vision and piercing screams gripped at his heart. Harry dared not to look around, but couldn't turn away. Tears of protest glided down his face as all around him images of people dying, falling lifeless to the ground, there last breath gone. Houses lay torched burning with evil fury as the dark mark floated above. Sickening images upon sickening images and piercing scream upon piercing scream continued to torture Harry, as innocence was replaced with death. Then as it all began it all stopped leaving him at a last image. This image however will haunt his mind forever; for this is what he feared most. "NO, ITS NOT REAL!!!" he whispered. There before him lay the burrow in the ruins. Getting up from his knees, which he involuntarily collapsed upon after seeing so many horrific images, he walked towards it. Above the house was none other than the dark mark. He ran reaching the first body a horrified expression left on the face. He screamed for Ron lay lifeless and next to him laid Hermione with the same expression of terror. Harry ran finding all the bodies of the Weasleys and including Remus and other members of the order like Tonks. Their bodies lay scattered about like debris. Each one had the same expression of surprised terror edge forever on their face and in Harry's mind. Sinking to his knees Harry cried for all the pain.

"This is not real, it is all a horrible dream!" Harry screamed

"Oh but it very well could be." Whispered that evil voice again. "Precious Potter can't protect them forever, you won't be there all the time," it continued.

"I will not let that happen, you can't harm them!" Harry yelled with fury

"It will, Potter, and there is no stopping it," it said drawing out every word.

"NOOOOOOO."

Harry awoke with a start, soaked with sweat and mingled with tears, and gasping for air. Glancing at the clock it read 4:37 and knowing sleep would not come again, he climber out of bed intent on rereading the letters sent to him to preoccupy himself.

Hey Harry,
How you doing, mate? You ok? We are all worried about you. I just want to tell you if you want to, you know talk I'm here for you.
Good news Harry Professor Dumbledore said you can come and stay with us at the Burrow. We'll come get you on July 15 at 1:00 I know its early but the sooner you get away from those dreadful good for nothing bloody relatives the better. Were staying at the Burrow. I think Dumbledore doesn't want us involve with the order, so mum and everyone is back home. Oh and great news bill and Charlie are home too! Hermione is coming a day before you. Can't wait to see you mate.

Ron

P.S. watch out for Fred and George when you get here. They're testing all their jokes out on everyone, especially me.

He laughed thinking of how Ron though thoughtful of Ron to say, he wasn't good with the emotional side of things

Dear Harry,
Are you ok? I'm worried about you Harry we all are. Don't blame yourself for what happened. The weight of the world does not belong on your shoulders. It is not your fault! OK? You can talk to me anytime I'm here for you along with everyone else. Keep practicing Occlumency; it's extremely important you do. Don't wander outside your not safe if you do. You're only protected inside. I know you don't want me to lecture you, but I worry and so does everyone else. We want you safe!
I hope the relatives are treating you fine. Especially because of a certain little chat at Kings Cross Station. Can't wait to see you and Ron, and of course the rest of the Weasleys. See you soon

Love,

Hermione

What is it with everyone asking if he was fine. Of course he was fine or as good as fine as can be when someone he loved was ripped away from him never to be seen again. Suppressing those thoughts he picke dup the next letter and was surprised ti get one from the youngest Weasley.

Dear Harry,
How you doing? I can't wait to see you. Ron probably told you but everyone's going to be home for the summer and I'm so excited. Percy cmae back and was forgiven though there always tension when Mum's not around. I'm going crazy here with Ron because he keeps talking non-stop about a certain someone. He is so obvious that he likes her, yet so clueless. Is every guy that blind and dense? We have to nudge them in the right direction
Seriously Harry I'm worried about you. It's not your fault so stop saying it in your little head that it is! I'll always be here for you. I'm a good listener so please take me up on the offer sometime. See you in a few days

Love always, Ginny (For some reason Harry just couldn't wait to see her)

Harry also received a letter from Professor Dumbledore reminding him to stay indoor and keep practices Occlumency.He quickly threw that aside . He was not up to talking or listening to Dumbledore. The fact is he didn't trust him, Harry and he felt betrayed. However he also receive a letter from Remus.

Dear Harry,
I won't repeat it knowing Dumbledore sent you a letter, but listen and do what he asks. It's for your own safety. Harry listen to me though, I know what your feeling right now. I lost my only friend, basically my brother and it's killing me too. Harry Sirius loved you never forget that. He's gone, Harry, you have to let go. He died trying to protect you and that's what he wanted to do protect you, just like your parents did. It's not your fault. It was his choice to go after you. He wanted to. Don't blame yourself. You can come talk to me if you like. Remember he that he loved you very much, like a son.

Sincerely,

Remus

That letter made him realize two things. He wasn't the only one suffering and he had to let go. Remus was going through as much, maybe more, pain as he is. Remus is the Last Marauder. (The rat is dead to him) It just isn't fair. Harry shook his head of those thoughts. He glanced at his clock and realizes that almost two hours had passed since he had awoken. The Weasleys were coming today! He packed all his things and made sure he didn't forget anything. The Weasleys were coming at 1:00 so he still had about seven hours till they came. Hoping the day went fast, Harry left his room to go take a shower and start his last day at the Dursleys for the summer.
