A/N: I meant to add this in the last chapter's A/N, but as many things these days it slipped my mind. I wanted to explain that I boosted the rating of the story from PG-13 to R because of the words I used in the previous chapter. I normally try to keep the swearing to a minimum, but that was the only way I could express Harry's outrage at his double.

I want to warn everyone right now that this is probably going to be a short chapter because there isn't a lot to say in it, but what is said and done does play a role in the story's plot. I will make it as long as I can without adding a bunch of useless information, but I fear it will be short like the last chapter. Also to avoid confusion that might come from this chapter I will explain right now that this chapter is taking place in Harry's real dimension just like chapter three did.


Recap

Albus didn't know what to say to make Harry feel better, so he just rested his hand on Harry's shoulder as he thinks to himself. 'I understand Harry I really do. I know that you need to get back to your own world, and one day you shall. Until then you will experience things that none have ever but imagined in their wildest dreams. I will do whatever I can to aid you in getting home. Though I barely know you, it seems as if I have known you for a life time and I want to help you.'


Chapter Eight: Reality Check

Albus, Remus, Hermione, Moody, and Tonks are found in library at Hogwarts. Albus is pacing back and fourth with a worried expression on his old wrinkled face. Remus and Hermione are both sitting at a table with stacks of books around them looking for anything they could use to solve the mystery of what happened to Harry. Mad-Eye Moody stands by a shelf of books just staring off into space lost in his own thoughts. Tonks meanwhile is sitting off in a darker corner still trying to keep from crying over losing Harry the way she did.


Alastor Moody's Point of View

Moody just stares off thinking to himself. 'Harry you don't deserve this! You don't deserve anything that has happened to you! Your to young to have all this thrown at you like this! You have faced some much shit in your life, and yet you continue to fight on. Harry you will make a great Auror if that is what you decide to do with your life. I would be honored to fight by your side any time that is if you make it back.'


Remus Lupin's Point of View

Remus is flipping through a book glancing over the information on the page as he thinks to himself. 'Harry wherever you are I knowing that you are doing your best to get back. I know that you wont give up hope of coming home just like we wont give up hope on finding you.' Remus stops as his eyes fall on to one of the theories in the book he is looking at. Thinking to himself again. 'Hmm this book is interesting I didn't know there was that many different theories on dimensional travel.'


Hermione Granger's Point of View

Hermione continues to stare at the same page that she had been for five minutes lost in her own thoughts. 'I can't believe this I am one of the smartest witches for my age and yet I can't find one single thing in these damn books to help me get my friend back! I have no way of even knowing where to start in trying to get him back! How could these people just let him disappear! How could Tonks lose him like that when it was her job to watch him? How could she!!!' Hermione slams her fist on to the table out of frustration and anger. "Sorry" she says as Remus looks at her.


Nymphadora Tonks' Point of View

Tonks sits alone slumped down in the cushioned seat that she is sitting in thinking about Harry. 'Oh Harry how could I allow this to happen? How could I have been so dumb to allow you to leave that house that night? Harry why didn't you just stay where you were safe? I know those muggles treated you like dung, but really you were safe with them. Now your missing and there is nothing that we can do to save you!' Tears slide down her face as she continues to think about that night. 'I should have come and talked to you. I should have came in and held you and comforted you like I wanted to so badly that night. After seeing you earlier in the day seeing how sad and alone you looked, but I had to stay professional. I couldn't allow my emotions to guide me! I know in a way I was right in not going in his house, but if I had he wouldn't be gone now.' Tears continuing rolling down her face as she sits in the dark with her thoughts. 'I am an Auror I have been trained to deal with these kind of things but yet I still can't but feel that everyone blames me for this. It is my clumsiness that has causes him to disappear I should have been keeping a better eye on him! I should have been with him when he needed me. Harry I am so sorry for failing you.'


Albus Dumbledore's Point of View

Dumbledore paces back and fourth with no twinkle in his eyes. He glances over at Mad-Eye Moody as he stands by bookshelf. He begins to think about Moody. 'Alastor my old friend I know you feel terrible about this, but yet there was nothing you could have done to prevent it from coming to pass. I just hope that you can understand that as you stand there thinking about what has happened.'

Dumbledore continues pacing as he looks to Remus and begins thinking to himself again. 'Remus I know this is hard on you as well. First you lose a dear friend when Sirius died and now you think that you have lost Harry as well. Remus I have faith that you will find something that will help.'

Dumbledore continues his pacing as he looks at Hermione after her outburst by slamming her fist. 'Hermione I know your frustrated because it seems that there is nothing that you can do to save your friend. However I know that you and Remus will find some way to save him from the fate he is now facing.'

Dumbledore pauses in his pacing as he looks at Tonks and sees her face stained with tears even while she tries to hide it by staying in the shadows. As he begins to pace again he feels his own eyes begin to tear up as he thinks about Tonks. 'Tonks I wish there was some way to prove to you that it wasn't your fault. There was no way that you could have known what was going to come to pass. No it wasn't your fault at all.'

Dumbledore slows in his paces as a single tear falls down his cheek. 'No Tonks it wasn't your fault it was mine! I failed Harry just like I have been failing him for years now. I failed you Harry the night your parents died by sending you to live with those muggles. I know I was doing the right thing at the time, but in the end it has proven that it might not have been such a wise choice to make. I then failed you in your first year here at Hogwarts I should have known that Quirrell was possessed by Voldemort, but I just couldn't see it. Maybe I did know and just didn't want to believe it. Harry I have failed in every attempt I have made. Every time I think I am protecting you, it just seems to hurt you more! Once again I have failed you once again I didn't act in time and again it has come with a price!'

Another tear streaks down his face into his silvery beard. 'I knew you were upset still over Sirius. I knew that you would want to find the answers you looking for, but I didn't want to believe you would go looking so soon. Who am I kidding I knew you would go and I knew that you weren't going to find the answers how you wanted to! I knew that night was going to be trouble and I should have prevented you from leaving. I should have brought you here where you would have been safe! Harry I am so sorry that I was unable to stop this from coming to pass! If only I would have listened, if I would have listened I could have stopped you from going through that gate way! I should have listened when I found out and now I have no way of helping you where you are now!'


Hidden Away From Everyone

A giant snake named Nagini lied on the floor on a red carpet as she slept while her master walked around the room looking at a woman kneeling on the floor at his feet. "Bellatrix you failed me at the Ministry!" The man hissed in a snake like tone as he looked down at the woman. "However I can forgive that since you didn't fail me this time! Rise Bella it is time for the world to know what it means to tremble beneath my feet! I will once again strike fear into the heart of those around me like I did before that bratty kid came to be! With him out of the way I shall once again rise to power and this time I will wipe out all that get in my way!"


A/N: Sorry I know it is not a long chapter, but I had to show you what was happening in the real dimension. You can boo and flame me all you want in the reviews, just make sure you REVIEW because I think two shorter chapters on the same day is a good to be put out, so you can review now about them.
