Chapter 10: You killed them

Disclaimer: I still don't own anything.

Harry woke up the next morning in his bed.

'Dumbledore must've brought me back' Harry thought. He climbed out of the bed and went to take a quick shower. A few minutes later he was making his way down to the kitchen when he heard voices coming from the living room. He recognised the voices to be Sirius's and Remus's. He walked up to the door so that he could hear better.

"He's got the right to know Sirius" came Remus's voice

"But if he knows then he might become withdrawn like he was when he first got here Moony, and I don't want him to withdraw himself"

"Well it's going to come up sooner or later so you may as well tell him sooner or he might be madder"

"But...."

"No buts, you're telling him and that's final"

"But what if he says that he hates me then what do I do?"

"He won't say that, he might be upset but he won't hate you.......I think"

"All right I'll tell him when I see him". The voices stopped and Harry heard them moving. Suddenly the door opened and Remus was stood in front of him.

"Good morning Harry" he said brightly

"Morning Remus" responded Harry. Behind him Harry could see a nervous looking Sirius. Remus followed his gaze and said;

"I believe that Sirius has something that he would like to talk to you about"

"Don't you mean that we would like to talk to you about" Sirius said quickly

"Ok, There's something that we need would like to talk to you about" Remus sighed

"What is it?" Harry asked curiously

"Why don't you come in Harry" Remus said, opening the door wider allowing Harry to walk into the room. He sat down on one of the chairs. Sirius sat in the one next to him while Remus sat opposite them.

"Ok then, well I don't want to waste time talking about un-important things ok so we'll get straight to the point" Remus started motioning for Sirius to continue.

"Yes well, you know the night that your parents died Harry, Remus thought"

"Uh hum"

"Remus and I thought that you might like to know how they were killed" Sirius said, staring at Harry

"I already know how they died, the killing curse, right" Harry said sadly

"No not that Harry, we thought you might want to know how they were found even though they were being protected by magic"

"Oh" Harry said, uneasily

"Do you want to know?" Remus asked him gently

"Yes" came Harry's reply. Sirius and Remus looked at each other before continuing.

"Well a few months before they were killed you were all placed under the Fidelius Charm"

"What's that?"

"It's a charm where only a certain person knows where some other people are, and the people can only be found if that person who knows where they are tells somebody" Remus answered.

"When you were all placed under it James and Lily made me their secret keeper" Sirius said.

"And....."

"Well about a week before they were killed I had the idea to swap secret keepers with Peter Pettigrew, one of old best friends, and James and Lily agreed, so Peter was you secret keeper"

"What happened then?"

"Well, we didn't know this but Peter was working for Voldemort and well he told him where you all were" Remus said heavily

"And then Voldemort killed them didn't he?" Harry said, staring at the floor, anger starting to grow inside him. If Sirius hadn't swapped secret keepers then his parents would still be alive.

"Harry?" Sirius asked wearily. When Harry didn't answer him he stared at Remus as if to say I-told-you-so.

"Harry say something" Remus pleaded

"You killed them" Harry finally managed to whisper

"What?" Sirius asked cautiously

"You killed them" Harry restrained himself from shouting. Sirius looked worried.

"Harry please........" Sirius was cut off as Harry punched him in the face. Sirius stumbled then looked at Harry. His face was red and he looked ready to kill him.

"Harry!" cried Remus

"He killed them" Harry repeated.

"I told you that he would hate me" Sirius exclaimed. Remus was silent.

"You son-of-a-bitch" Harry spat before turning on his heel and exiting the room.

"Remus?" Sirius asked

"I'm sorry Sirius" Remus said, as he went over to help his friend.

Harry marched back to his bedroom. He walked in and went straight over to his bed and started packing everything back into his bag. He wasn't staying here, no, he would go back to the Dursleys and pretend that this whole thing never happened. He grabbed his picture of him, Shane, and Jennie from his bedside cabinet then marched back out of the room.

As he walked past the living room he could hear Sirius's and Remus's voices coming from it. He didn't stop he carried onto the front door and walked out slamming it behind him.

Sirius and Remus stopped. The both heard the front door slam and knew that Harry had gone. Sirius made to walk out of the room but Remus stopped him.

"What are you doing?" Sirius asked

"He needs some time to himself" Remus said quietly sitting down on one of the chairs.

"But, but...."

"Just wait Sirius;he'll come back when he's ready". Sirius sat down on another chair and sunk into it. He was worried about Harry. His reaction was just what he expected.

"What if he doesn't come back?" Sirius voiced his thoughts

"He will"

Harry stepped out onto the road. He didn't know where he was. He had been walking for an hour now, not worrying where he was going to end up. He just wanted to be as far away from Sirius as possible.

He looked around his surroundings and started to get worried. He had no idea where he was and no money either. He sat down on the pavement and wrapped his arms around him. It was quite cold, even for the beginning of summer. A few minutes later he had decided that he would walk around for a bit until he found someone then ask them where he was.

He stuck out his right hand, preparing to get up, when........

A large purple bus appeared in front of him. It read "The Knight Bus" on one side. Harry was confused; he had never seen a purple bus before.

A man came out and was about to speak before Harry did;

"Who are you?" Harry asked

"Stan Shunpike and who are you?" the man asked him back

"Uh.....Shane King" Harry lied

"Ok, well you'll excuse me if I don't welcome you but it gets a bit annoying saying the same thing everyday" Stan said as he stepped aside to let Harry on. Harry eyed the bus, but didn't get on.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing" Harry said as he climbed up the steps to the bus. He walked into it and was shocked at what he saw. Instead of there being rows of seats there where numerous beds placed everywhere.

"Come on then" Stan said, giving Harry a small push in the back. Harry walked down to the other end of the bus and waited by the side.

"Right then, where do you want to go?" Stan asked him

"Where can I go?" Harry asked

"Anywhere you want, but nowhere underwater, can't do nothing underwater" Stan replied calmly

"So you could take me back to Surrey" Harry said happily

"Of course we could but you'll have to be a bit more specific when we get there" Stan said turning round to the driver. Harry sat down on the edge of a bed.

"Why don't you get some sleep kid, looks like you've had a rough day" Stan called over his shoulder. Harry obliged and led down on the bed. Soon tiredness washed over him and he was fast asleep.

Sirius couldn't sleep. Harry hadn't come back and when he checked his room he couldn't see any of his things. Remus had told him to stop worrying.

"Don't worry, he's a tough boy, if he doesn't come back by tomorrow then we'll go look for him, until then get some rest" was what he said.

So here Sirius was, in his bed, rocking and rolling, trying to get to sleep. He would've gone out himself to look for him by now but he knew that Remus's room was just down the hall and he would hear him if he left the room.

Sirius woke up at 10:00. He had eventually fallen asleep against his will. Remembering that Harry wasn't here he quickly jumped out of the bed and hurriedly changed into some clothes. He practically ran down the stairs to see Remus waiting for him at the bottom.

"Is he back?" Sirius asked

"No, we're going to go look for him now" Remus said pulling on his shoes

"Ok, let's go" Sirius said walking towards the door when Remus pulled him back.

"You aren't going" Remus said sadly

"Why not?"

"Because your wanted by the Ministry, so it's not a good idea to go walking up the street is it" reasoned Remus

"Fine then I'll go as Snuffles" Sirius said smartly

"Sirius, think, if you were Harry would you really want to see you right now?" Remus asked him.

Sirius hesitated. If he was Harry and saw himself then he would be mad.

"I guess not" He replied reluctantly

"Exactly, so you stay here and me and Tonks will bring him back" Remus said walking past him.

"Ok then, um, where is Tonks?" Sirius asked absent-mindedly

"Outside waiting for me" Remus said. He was about to walk out when he caught the worried look on his friends face.

"Don't worry Sirius, we will find him" He said, as he walked out of the house and silently closed the door. Sirius sighed. Remus was right they would find him. He walked into the kitchen and set about to making himself breakfast, all the while trying to keep his mind off Harry.
