Harry Potter And The Only Way Out

By, Nicollette Harris

Chapter 1: Dreams And Screams

"I don't care what protections he has, just get him!" roared the cold voice of Lord Voldomort. "B-B-But master we c-can't its im-p-possible s-sir" squeaked the hooded man who was now on his ands and knees. "Don't you see Wormtail?! I don't care! Now I want him here and those muggles he lives with dead by tomorrow night or you will surely die Wormtail" threatened Voldomort, "Now go, get out of my sight!"

The man named Wormtail quickly got up and ran out of the room. "I will have you Potter you just wait and I will have you," said Voldomort, who was now sitting in the dark cold room by his self.

Just then Harry woke up from a nightmare, it was12:00am, well at least that dream wasn't about Sirius, who is his now dead godfather. He hadn't had one nights good sleep since he was in the Department Of Mysteries, every night he dreams about his godfathers death, which he believed only died because of him. Then his thoughts drifted back to his dream, and it hit him, the death eaters must be coming to Privet Drive to kill his only relatives and kidnap him! He was just about to write to Dumbledore when he heard someone banging on the front door down stairs. He froze, that must be the death eaters, he thought, I mean who else would be banging on the door at 12:oo in the morning?

So he grabbed his wand and ran to his cousin's room. Dudley had been awoken by the bangs on the door and was sitting bolt upright staring at Harry who was now in his room.

Scared Dudley asked, "Harry? Who's down there?" he was now shaking with fright. "Death Eaters, they're Voldomort's followers" he answered hurriedly, "Now Dudley, I need you to get your parents run and hide, and what ever you do don't come back here just get out okay?" Dudley just sat there shocked at what he was hearing. "Dudley, listen if you guys don't get out they will kill you," at that Dudley snapped back into reality, nodded and ran to his parents room.

The banging was now getting louder and louder so Harry ran back to his room got out a parchment and began writing,

Dear Dumbledore,

Help, Death Eaters are at the house

Harry

He quickly ran over to Hedwig and told him to take the letter to Dumbledore as fast as he could.

Then he heard a huge bang and the shatter of wood, the death eaters were now in the house. He ran over to his Aunt and Uncles room happy to see they weren't there. Then he looked at the stairs only to see a flash of green light, he then slowly crept down the stairs scared of what he might see when there was another scream. At that he sprinted down the stairs to find his aunts motionless body laying on the floor and his uncle crouched over her sobbing. Dudley was in the corner with Death Eaters closing in on him wands raised. The Death Eaters seemed to not notice Harry entering the room so he said the first spell that came to his mind, "Stupfey," he yelled as a jet of red light came out of his wand and hit the nearest Death Eater, who then froze and fell to the floor. By now all the Death eaters turned their attention to Harry and before he knew it 50 different spells were being sent his way giving Dudley time to escape. So he edged his way around the room to his parents. "Get out!" yelled Harry, "Go while you can!" said Harry who was now in the center of the closing in Death Eaters. Dudley and his Uncle Vernon were now leaving through the back door with his Aunt Petunia's limp body in his Uncle Vernon's arms. Suddenly Harry remembered the flash of green light he saw from upstairs and hoped his Aunt wasn't dead, just as they stepped out the back door 50 members of the order walked through the back door wands raised causing him to loose concentration on dodging the spells so he was hit with a Stunner. All he saw was Lupin running toward him before every thing went black.

Remus Lupin's P.O.V.

Remus and the rest of the order arrived at the Drusleys house just to see the three Drusleys leaving but spells were still flying inside the house meaning Harry was in there. As they walked through the door wands at the ready Lupin saw Harry get hit with a stunning spell and ran toward him but before he could get there the Death Eaters closed in around Harry and disappeared Harry with them.

He just stood there eyes fixed on where they had disappeared, he couldn't believe it he lost is good friend, Sirius, and his other good friend's son, Harry, all within a couple of days. He felt ashamed of himself and he hoped Harry would be alright because if he wasn't he would blame himself for not getting here faster. Tonks came around him and put her hand on his shoulder while saying "He'll be okay he can handle himself," hearing this made him feel better because it was true Harry could handle himself he proved it many times throughout the years.

Back To Harry But Voldomort's P.O.V.

Hundreds of miles away Harry and the Death Eaters landed in front of Volomort. Yes, he's here and unconscious to good good this is going to be great, thought Volomort as the Death Eaters tied Harry's legs and arms to a chair. "Tie them tight, I want it to hurt," laughed Voldomort. So the Death Eaters tied the ropes as tight as they would go and stood up straight in a circle closing Harry and Voldomort in the circle. "Unstunn him, quickly" said Voldomort, so the Death Eaters unstunned Harry.

Harry's P.O.V.

Harry jerked awake and looked around he was in a dark dusty room that had many pictures of snakes on the walls. And Death Eaters were standing around him then all the nights events came flooding back to him, "Crap!" he yelled frustrated that he had gotten kidnapped that easily. Then he noticed Voldomort standing in front of him and before he could do anything Voldomort had raised his wand and shouted, "Crucio" pain surged through his body and he let out a yell of pain. When Voldomort finally lifted the curse Harry gasped for breath then Voldomort said, "So Harry how are you? Oh yeah and how's your Godfather Sirius is it? Ohhhh yes, I mean was it?" he let out a high-pitched laugh. Harry filled with anger so he replied, "You know dm well how he is," Voldomort's smile widened, "Yes I do and I thanked and awarded Belatrix for doing me that favor, right Belatrix?" "Yes Master of course, but I do thank you for giving me that opportunity it was very enjoyable" answered Belatrix. Harry tried to get himself free so he can get at Belatrix but the ropes were tied to tight they were cutting into his skin now. So he gave up when she said in a mock baby voice as she did at the Department Of Mysteries, "ohh is the little baby Potter angry??? Ohh poor baby he misses his Sirius" they all laughed at that but to their surprise so did Harry.

Then Harry replied through laughs, "You know I'm going to kill you Belatrix and there's nothing you can do about it and I'll make sure it's painful oh yes it will be painful you just wait and see, I've already gotten it planned out!" Harry looked up at her with a big smile on his face.

And her smile was wiped right off of her face at the sight of his so she looked at Voldomort with a pleading look on her face so he motioned for her to go ahead.

Harry, now confused, was looking at each of them trying to figure out what was going on. Then he realized what Belatrix was thinking as soon as he saw the big smile across her face, she was going to torcher him as she did with the Longbottoms!

Meanwhile with The Order

After a moments silence Dumbledore showed up and walked straight up to Remus and said, "Where's Harry I have some things to discuss with him and where's the Death Eaters?" Lupin looked up at Dumbledore and Dumbledore saw the sorrow in his eyes. He didn't even need to be told that Harry had been kidnapped he saw the answer in Remus's eyes. Dumbledore then looked at the ground it happened the thing he was hoping would never happen again, he had been kidnapped just as he had in his 4th year. Suddenly he remembered, Snape he can give Harry a Portkey to take him back here! Brilliant, he told himselfthen he turned to Remus and said,"Remus listen I need you to contact the Weasley's and Ms. Granger they have a right to know, meanwhile I have a plan on how to get him back before he is badly hurt. And what you guys need to do is stay here just in case he shows up okay?"

The others agreed so Dumbledore went to the living room to use the fireplace, Remus left to go to the post office, and the others stayed in the kitchen waiting for a sign of Harry. Dumbledore walked up to the fireplace placed his hand in his pocket and pulled out an envelope with floo powder in it. He then threw some of the powder into the fireplace yelled, "Hogwarts, Serevus Snape's office," stuck his head into the fire felt a swirl and his head was suddenly in Snape's office.

"Serevus! Serevus!" he called, "Yes Albus?" answered Snape who just walked into the room. "Harry has been kidnapped by Voldomort!" said Dumbledore hurriedly, "How long ago?" asked Snape, "About 1hr., why?" "Well, Voldomort doesn't normally keep the people he captures for to long unless he's planning on using Harry as a test dummy for all of his new courses, Harry is likely to be dead," answered Snape. This worried Dumbledore so he continued quickly, "I need you to get over there and give him a portkey back to the Drusleys house, go now before it's to late." "Yes, ok I'm leaving now," and with that Snape left and Dumbledore pulled his head out of the fireplace and took a deep breath trying to calm himself.

Back To Harry

Harry had no way of defending himself so he just sat there while Belatrix repeatedly put the Cruciatus curse on him and took it off laughing throughout the process. Just as Harry thought he couldn't take it anymore the door crept open and a hooded man entered. "Ahhh so nice to see you," said Voldomort "Nice to see you to my lord," said the man who Harry instant recognized as Professor Snape. "What are you doing here?" asked Voldomort, "Well, I have just gotten news that Dumbledore is having a meeting outside of headquarters and I thought it would be a great idea to attack them there due to the fact that they will all be there," replied Snape. "Excellent, Wormtail throw the boy in a cell he can wait there until we return," Voldomort ordered.

Then Wormtail untied Harry and held his arms behind his back. Harry walked next to Snape and Snape secretly gave Harry a portkey and whispered in his ear, "Hold on to this don't drop it, it's a portkey it will take you to the Dursleys house." Harry nodded slightly to show he understood and kept walking. After walking for a while they came to a metal door that Wormtail threw him locked the door and walked away. As soon as the door closed he felt a jerk and he was heading for the Dursleys' house.

When he finally landed in the kitchen his legs gave away under all of the weight so he was just lying there. All the members of the order want quiet, then there was a shuffle of feet and before he knew it he was being hosted up to his bedroom. Then he heard someone call, "Hello? Is anyone here?" Harry recognized the voice of Lupin so he answered, "We're up here Lupin," and before he knew it Lupin sprinted into the room with a worried look on his face. "Are you okay Harry? Do you need anything?" he asked immediately. "Yes, I'm fine and no, I don't need anything, but thanks for asking," replied Harry. At that Lupin put a big smile on his face just happy that he was okay. "Okay, well Harry we have set up a few more charms on the house so it's impossible for them to get you, your uncle, and your cousin" said Lupin. "Okay" replied Harry then it hit him, you, your uncle, and your cousin, what about my aunt, he asked himself. "What happened to my aunt?" asked Harry with a sign of panic in his voice, "I'm sorry Harry but she got hit with the killing curse" answered Lupin and seeing the guilty look on Harry's face he added, "And it's not your fault so don't even think about blaming yourself, Do you hear me?" Harry nodded, but inside he knew it was his fault and he also knew the two remaining Dursleys would think the same so by him staying with them they will surely punish him beyond words. "I can't stay here, Uncle Vernon will surely kill me when you leave," said Harry, "If Voldomort can't kill you then what makes you think your uncle can, but if he does decide to lay a finger on you oh we'll have to have a few words with him," said Lupin. "Now you need to get some rest and contact us if anything happens and keep in mind that there will be a guard waiting outside if you go anywhere and I'm one of them okay?" Harry nodded all he wanted to do was sleep and forget about what happened he also dreaded confronting the Dursleys. When Lupin and the others left he layed down on his bed and fell into an uneasy sleep. He woke to the sound of someone banging on his bedroom door. Thinking it was death eaters once again he grabbed his wand and opened the door to see...

His Uncle Vernon standing there with a metal bat in his hand! "Now you boy, you let them kill her, it's your fault so I'm going to make your life a living hl" roared Uncle Vernon while grabbing Harry by the hair and raising the bat. With one swift movement of his uncles' arm the bat swung down hitting Harry hard in the ribs. The one crack he heard told him that his ribs had broken, he let out a short yell. Trying to get away he knocked down his bedside lamp causing it to brake.

Meanwhile Remus And 5 Members Of The Order Are Outside Guarding The House

Remus sat there on the doorsteps thinking about the night's events when he heard a yell and a crash coming from Harry's bedroom. The others heard it to so without saying anything they ran into the house and heard another yell, Lupin was sure it came from Harry so he ran up the stairs to Harry's bedroom and was surprised at what he saw.

Harry was in a bundle on the floor and Vernon was repeatedly hitting him with a metal device and Lupin had no idea whatsoever what it was, but it looked like a metal club. Then he heard a loud crack. Harry's arm was now broken. So he immediately pulled out his wand and yelled "Stupfey." A jet of red light came from his wand and hit Vernon on the side of his face; he froze and fell to the floor causing the house to shake.

Lupin then ran over to Harry hoping he was okay when he got there Harry was unconscious, he had 2 broken ribs, a broken arm, and a broken leg. So Lupin hosted him up and carried him downstairs leaving Vernon lying motionless on the floor in the middle of the room. "He needs to go to St. Mungo's, Hurry contact Dumbledore," sad Lupin, "What happened?" asked Tonks. "Vernon beat him with a metal club he broke 2 ribs, an arm, and a leg."

Tonks, now disgusted, said, "I knew it that filthy muggle, we'll have to set him straight." So with that they left for St. Mungo's in the car the ministry gave to the order. The car apparates everyone in it including underage wizards. It wasn't the best looking car, 'cause it had a few broken windows, the hood was dented, and it had a bit of mold growing off it. So the got in and when they got out they were at the entrance to St. Mungo's Hospital. They entered and went straight up to the counter.

"How may I help you?" the woman at the counter asked "Yes, I have young Harry Potter here he has a few broken bones" answered Lupin. The woman quickly looked at Harry's scar then asked, "how did this happen?" Lupin answered hurriedly, "His Uncle beat him, now he needs to be cared for immediately we don't want him staying the night all we want you to do is fix it so we can take him home to rest, 'cause it's not safe for him here," the woman nodded then said, "Okay take him up to ward b8. Next!" Lupin rushed Harry up to ward b8, it was privet ward, when they entered there was 3 healers ready to work their new famous patient. "Good evening, please lay him here," said one of the Healers as he motioned for the bed, Lupin did so. The Healers checked Harry over and quickly repaired the broken bones. They then gave him a potion that woke him up.

Harry jerked awake, he was in a ward, he didn't remember going there so he thought, I must have passed out when Uncle Vernon hit me in the face and Lupin must have brought me here, Lupin looked at him and asked. "Are you okay?" "Yes, I feel perfectly fi-" but he was cut off as a piercing pain shot through his scar he sat there holding it for a while until the pain disappeared. Lupin, now looking fearful asked, "What happened?" Harry answered, "Voldomort just found out I escaped and he's very angry." At that Lupin said firmly, "We're leaving, lets go," so Harry obediently got up and started walking out with the others leaving the 3 healers standing there looking puzzled. "Were are we going because I'm not going back to the Dursley's," said Harry, "of course your not going back there, were going to headquarters." Harry's heart sank; headquarters meant Sirius house and that was the last place he'd like to go.
