"The freak -" Uncle Vernon's voice bellowed, "Can sleep in the yard for all I care! That way we won't be able to hear him. Go ahead to the kitchen, Marge. I'll have your suitcase brought upstairs."
The stairs moaned under Uncle Vernon's weight as he stomped upstairs. Harry braced himself and reached for his wand. No way was he sleeping outdoors! As soon as his Uncle opened his door, he yelled:
"I will not sleep outside!"
His uncle seemed a bit taken aback at first, but soon recovered.
"You've kept us awake with your screaming long enough! It's time this room was put to better use. Now get your lazy behind downstairs and take Aunt Marge's suitcase up." He hissed.
"Didn't my friends warn you to treat me right? You know my friends, right— they're keeping an eye on you, dear uncle." Harry sneered back as he walked down the stairs. His uncle paled considerably and said nothing more.
Dinner was quite uneventful, if you didn't count the innumerable insults from Aunt Marge and Dudley's frightful glances. No, it was very uneventful compared to bedtime when Ripper had by force claimed his room.
Harry could've taken on his relatives, yes even Aunt Marge, but he was afraid to hurt the dog. He could not stop thinking about Sirius as a dog. So now he was room-less.
"C'mon! I can just sleep on the couch, can't I?!" He yelled.
"Definitely not! You'll just make a mess! One week outside can't hurt you, so stop complaining! You're taking us for granted, we won't have it! Get out, freak! This is no longer your home!" And with that he grabbed Harry by the collar of his shirt and forcefully threw him outside.
He landed on the cold stones in the back yard and heard the door being locked. Where is the Order when you need them? He thought miserably. He found the photographs in his pocket and angrily ripped them into tiny pieces. That calmed him a bit.
He looked at the stars. Five years of Astronomy lessons had taught him the names of the planets, the position of the stars. His eyes searched the sky— there! It was Sirius, the Dog Star. And there was Mars— the moon, the Great Bear, Death Eater, the Little Bear— Wait a tick— Death Eater?!
