***The Past first memory***
Harry and the now getting used to the unusual company that followed Dumbledore up to the castle with curiosity ever growing at the concern that was placed in the old man's few words. Slowly they reached the gargoyles that guarded the headmaster's office. Hogwarts didn't seem to change or Harry for the matter of a fact as he watched the gargoyles sprang to life after Dumbledore gave the password of "chocolate frog".
"Every one please take a seat" said Dumbledore making his way to his own seat behind his desk.
Harry walked into the room to find a lot of people he knew. All in all it was his parents.......the entire Weasley family except Percy........ Hermione.............. Tonks...........Lupin............Sirius..........Professor McGonagall........Professor Snape..... the Longbottoms...... and.... Hagrid.
"Well I guess you are all wondering why you all are here." Said Dumbledore as everyone seemed to be asking the same question. "Well with Harry's permission of course I think we should view Harry's memories to better know his abilities and to know what we need to teach him. Also it will be a way for his parents to see what he has been up to all these years."
Everyone looked at Harry with anticipation across their faces. Harry was startled because he would have thought Dumbledore would want anything but that. It was a total surprise to him. He began to think if he should do that. Harry's mind began to wonder if he should show them his recent discovery with those past memories. Harry finally decided on the following as he said it half doubting his decision.
"I will do it on 3 conditions. One I don't have to hear about anything you see unless it is important. Two my friends and I don't get into any trouble from what you see. And three I don't have to come in."
"Well that seems like good conditions and I think we all agree." Said Dumbledore peering around the room. Everyone seemed to agree but Snape who looked like he wanted to desperately escape this situation.
"Okay you can start anywhere in your life before you came to Hogwarts. Just put your wand to your forehead and put all the memories into the pensive."
"Um......Sure ..." Harry thought it would be best to start where he was talking to the snake at the zoo. After putting all his memories in from that day on Harry sat down in a chair next to his parent.
"Hey are you sure you don't want to come with us kido." Said James looking at has son with concern on his face that matched his wife's. "Yeah. You guys go. OK? I'll be fine."
"Well ok" said Lily as they all decided to enter the pensive.
********************
Upon entering they saw a small boy who appeared to be about 11 and they began to watch the scene unfold.
( are the memories.*Means its Parseltongue* Just so you know!!!)
Harry stared. Then he looked to see if anyone was watching. They weren't. He looked at the snake and winked, too.
The snake jerked its head toward Uncle Vernon and Dudley, then raised its eyes to the ceiling. It gave Harry a look that said plainly:
*"I get that all the time."*
*"I know,"* Harry murmured through the glass, though he wasn't sure the snake could hear him.* "It must be really annoying."*
As the Snake shook its head, a deafening shout behind Harry made both of them jump. "DUDLEY! MR. DURSLEY! COME AND LOOK AT THIS SNAKE! YOU WON"T BELIEVE WHAT IT'S DOING!"
Dudley came waddling toward them as fast as he could. "Out of the way, you," he said, punching Harry in the ribs.
"Oh, that is awful James" said Lily covering her mouth at seeing her son punched and on the ground. Even Ron and Hermione seemed shocked his cousin had just hit him.
What came next happened so fast no one saw how it happened- one second, Piers and Dudley were leaning right up close to the glass, the next, they had leapt back with howls of horror. Harry sat up and gasped; the glass front of the boa constrictor.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the sight of the snake and the frightened boys.
Uncle Vernon waited until Piers was safely out of the house before starting on Harry. He was so angry he could hardly speak. He managed to say," GO---cupboard----stay-----no meals." Before he collapsed into a chair.
"That is so horrible the way they treat him. I am going to give my sister a piece of my mind when I next see her and that husband of hers" said Lily in a rage.
"Well you have to go to the end of the line because a lot of us wish to do that!" said Sirius with an evil grin starting to appear. "Padfoot my dear old boy I think the last few weeks of summer are going to be fun!" said Prongs surprisingly more evil then Padfoot.
"Count us in too!" said the Weasley children and Hermione. "I mean I can't believe they made him live in a cupboard under the stairs." said Ginny as the seen began to change.
Snape was just standing there wondering if Potter even disserved this kind a life. A hint of sadness showed in his eyes but no one noticed except Professor Dumbledore who stood staring as if saying maybe peace may come from this.
