Chapter 4 - Train Station

Everybody, including Snape was completely surprised at how Harry was so cold to his uncle and his aunt because all he did was walk away from his aunt and threaten his uncle.

-----------

Harry walked through the door into the kitchen, fetched the warm tea on the counter, and started searching for the smelling salts.

Harry's aunt fainted again, that wasn't good in the condition that she was in. She was getting a little vulnerable mentally. She was starting to have dreams of Harry dying a very gruesome death along with his cousin, Dudley. With all the dreams that she was having she started to become more affectionate to her nephew and started to care for him deeply.

'Where were those damn smelling salts!' Harry thought as he started to get worried about his aunt's well being. 'She really has been a little bit on edge every time she saw a wand pointing at anybody. Especially when he would point it at his uncle in a rage of passion.'

He looked in all the cabinets and finally found them in the last cabinet that he looked in. They were all the way towards the back of the cabinet behind the cereal that Dudley loved to eat. 'Finally found them! Better get back before anything else happens and I get blamed for them. Uncle Vernon was the meanest son of a bitch to anybody he wanted to. He always blames me for things that he has no control of! This is the last time that I let him blame me for anything else!'

The next thing that they knew Harry was walking back through the door with a tea tray levitated behind him and smelling salts in his hands. They all looked at him as he walked back to the stairs where his aunt was laying with a blank expression on his face. He opened the smelling salts and gently glided them underneath his aunt's nose.

Harry noticed that everybody was just staring at him, but it didn't matter. He was going to take care of his aunt and then go to the train station if it was the last thing he did.

'It actually may be the last thing that I do. I think it would be better to end this madness now than later.' Harry thought. But as soon as he thought this that mysterious dream girl came to his mind and how she said his name.

Harry snapped out of the dream as soon as his aunt sat up on the steps. He gave her a cup of tea to drink and told her to take a drink. He calmed her down when her eyes looked worriedly at Snape and his uncle.

"Everything is alright, they only had a small disagree. It's all settled now. Right?" Harry said looking at his uncle and Snape with the most deadliest look that he had ever made in his entire life and the coldest eyes in the world.

Vernon looked right back at his nephew and took a step back at the look that Harry was giving him. 'What the hell is that freak looking at me for? All I did was tell the fucking truth and everyone is giving me an its-all-your-fault look.'

He shivered because Harry was not the only one to look at him like that. Those other 'wizards' were looking at him like it was all his fault.

Snape actually flinched back a bit at the look that Potter was giving him. This boy, no young man, in front of him was not the same scraggly troublesome little twit that he thought that Potter was. Here was a cold-hearted young man that looked like he was about to strangle him for doing him wrong.

'The nerve of Potter to look at me like that! I should hex him for giving me such a nasty look! But that look . . . it reminds me of someone. Who?' Snape thought to himself as he stared back at Harry and nodded in agreement at the cold look he was given.

Once his aunt was fine, Harry and his escorts left for the train station. They went out the front door and out of the sight of muggles and apparated a block away from the train station. Everyone was completely silent when they got to the train station.

Snape noticed that Harry's face was expressionless as they got his, Ron's, and Ginny's stuff on carts. He did not seem to be on alert of any kind; it was like he didn't care if someone tried to end his life. It seemed such ashame for the Potter boy to give up without a fight. I wonder why he has given up, so quickly on living his own life.

Harry was completely on alert for some reason he didn't think that Snape was going to try to save him in anyway after the encounter with his uncle, but for some reason he didn't feel like worrying about the whole situation. Whatever happens, happens, but what about Ron and Ginny, and their parents.

'I better be on guard for anything in case they try to go after anybody else, but me.' Harry thought as he took a quick glance around the platforms before getting onto platform 9 and ¾. 'I wonder who or how they are going to kill me in front of everyone here?'

All of a sudden out of nowhere there was a little girl with her mom walking toward them, each of them carrying a wand in their hands. The little girl was pointing her wand at Ginny and the woman was pointing her wand at Ron.

Harry was about to do something but he caught other couple pointing their wands at Mr. and Mrs. Weasley. He looked behind them and saw that there were three more wands pointed in his direction, two at himself and one at Snape's back. He kept walking making it look like he couldn't see what was going on.

Snape seem to notice that Harry tensed all of a sudden and then relaxed as he took a look around the platform.

'Wonder why Potter is getting jumpy all of a sudden? He didn't seem to worry about coming to the train station earlier, so why is he getting all nervous now?' Snape thought until he saw Harry look over his shoulder at him and then past him. 'What is Potter looking at?'

Snape noticed the reflection in Harry's glasses to see a man pointing a wand at his back, but he also noticed that Harry was turning around. He also noticed the tiny smirk that appeared across his face before he completely turned around.

'So the morons think that putting me on the spot like this in the middle of the train station is going to force me to do something stupid. Well, they have another thing coming. I will give them what they want just not the way they want it.' Harry thought as he turned his head back to face where he was going with a smirk.

"Do you mind? We are busy. We need to get to school, so if you wouldn't mind getting out of the way before you get hurt, it would be most appreciated." Harry said as he came to a stop directly in front of the entrance to platform 9 and ¾. There stood the woman and the little girl with their wands raised and now pointing at him.

The Wealsey's and even, Snape froze at the coldness in Harry's voice. They were also surprised by the scene in front of them at the entrance to platform 9 and ¾.

'Maybe I can by some time for Mr. Weasley, Ron and Snape to get armed and fight back with me. I need to figure out a way to get Ginny and Mrs. Weasley out of danger, before this whole thing gets out control.' Harry thought as he moved to block any attacks that might hit Ginny.

"I'll tell you now that I don't like to repeat myself so this is your last warning 'get out of our way before you get hurt'." Harry said as he noticed that Mr.Weasley, Ron, and Snape were ready for anything that was going to head their way.

Mrs. Weasley was actually shocked to see any wizard bold enough to try to use magic in front of muggles, that she did not notice her husband and Snape getting into position to block any attacks that might hit her. While Ron positioned himself the same way with Ginny.

Ginny had no idea what to do when she realized there were seven wizards pointing their wands at all of them. 'Why would they really want to kill Harry, why would anybody? How the hell are we going to get out of this?' she thought as she finally realized that Harry and Ron were standing protectively around her.

'What the hell do they think they are doing? I can take care of myself! The nerve of them!' Ginny thought. Then the whole situation took a turn for the worst when Ron and her dad both were on their knees screaming and clutching their hands to their heads.

Harry and Snape both disarmed their attackers at the same time. Snape was able to disarm only two before he was struck with a spell. Whereas Harry was able to disarm the little girl and woman as Ron came to his senses before he was able to turn around to disarm the other wizards. Ron was up putting a spell on the woman and the little girl out of the way of the entrance to platform 9 and ¾.

By the time that Harry had completely turned around Ginny had her wand out and disarmed one of the wizards that were aiming at Harry from behind him.

"Hurry onto the platform, Ginny, Mom! NOW!" Ron yelled at his little sister as he turned around to help Harry and the others fend off the attackers to give Ginny and his mom a chance to get to safety.

'Where were all the 'normal' people?' Harry thought as he was disarming yet another wizard. 'I have not seen one since we got this far on the platform. These monsters better not have done anything to anybody not involved in this. Damn!'

Ginny was hit in the back with a spell just as she passed through the entrance to platform 9 and ¾. Mrs. Weasley ran after her through the entrance with a scared expression on her face.

Snape was finally coming out of the spell that was cast on him when Mr. Weasley was able to get the chance to bend down to see if he was okay. Snape was a little bit sluggish, but was able to get up and walk through the entrance with Mr. Weasley's support.

'Damn! This is not how I thought things were going to go.' Harry thought as Mr. Weasley and Snape walked through the entrance followed by Ron. 'Why does nothing go the way I plan it? I always seem to hurt the ones I care about without having to do much just because I'm 'the boy that lived'.'

As soon as he finished that thought and was turning to go through the entrance to platform 9 and ¾, he noticed something out of the corner of his eye and stopped where he was. He turned toward the image in his line of sight and all the air in lungs fled him.

The little girl that was attacking him had just killed the two wizards that were trying to kill him and the others. But that was not the strange thing about the whole scene in front of him. She killed them by throwing small knifes at their throats and then right in-between their eyes. She also had pointed ears and eyes that showed that she was older beyond her years. But what surprised him more than anything was what happened next.

"You must go. Your friends will need you, now. But you must go to her, she will need you more than you think." Then she threw a knife over his shoulder at the woman she was with before. "Now go! Before it is too late!"

Harry turned and ran through the entrance to platform 9 and ¾.
