Chapter 3- Unknown Powers Revealed

Harry looked back at the Dursleys, who were cowering in the corner of the kitchen. Ron and Hermione were scowling at the Death eaters who were coming in on them. Harry turned to look back at Mr. Malfoy.

Harry said, "I see you escaped from Azkaban finally, Mr. Malfoy."

Mr. Malfoy sneered, "I have my ways of getting out of messes like this, and this is going to end by me killing you."

Harry said, "Oh, wouldn't that put your wife and son in more danger, unless you don't know what happened a few weeks ago?"

Mr. Malfoy's eyebrows arched and said, "Potter, what are you talking about? Narcissa didn't do anything a few weeks ago."

Harry said, "Want to bet?" He told Mr. Malfoy all about the Unbreakable Vow that Snape made with Mrs. Malfoy, and how Draco was supposed to kill Dumbledore, but instead Snape killed Dumbledore.

Mr. Malfoy's face turned beet red and he yelled, "Are you accusing my wife of sacrificing our son to the Dark Lord?"

Harry said, "No, but your wife's the reason Dumbledore's dead."
Mr. Malfoy smirked and said, "Oh, spare me the sob story. Dumbledore's gone, so accept it, Potter!"

Harry said, "At least Professor McGonagall's an efficient Headmistress, and I can assure you she will make sure that Severus Snape and Draco Malfoy gets punished!"

Mr. Malfoy said, "She won't last long as Dumbledore did, because she's not as good with her powers as Dumbledore is." He turned to the two Deatheaters who were watching Ron and Hermione, "Jugson, Dolohov, kill Granger and Weasley. I'm going to take care of Potter here."
Hermione said, "Well, if we go down, then Harry will go down with us!"
Ron nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. Mr. Malfoy, even if you kill us, the good side will win, anyway."

Mr. Malfoy said, "Oh really? Dolohov, Jugson, Kill them now!"

Suddenly, Mr. Malfoy was knocked down by something behind him. Harry saw Mrs. Figg standing at the doorway, looking furious. She had her wand drawn. Dolohov and Jugson started blasting spells at Mrs. Figg, who was dodging them. Hermione and Ron had joined the fight by blasting spells at the two Deatheaters who were watching the Dursleys, which Harry recognized as Crabbe and Goyle.

Lucius stirred, then he got up and said, "You'll pay for that, Squib!" He knocked Mrs. Figg down with a spell.

Mr. Malfoy turned back to Harry and said, "Now, back to you. Any last words?"

"Freeze right there, Lucius Malfoy!" barked a voice from the doorway. Harry turned around to find Professor McGonagall standing at the doorway, looking livid. Harry thought Professor McGonagall looked dangerous than before, now that she had her wand drawn. Harry saw Lupin, Tonks, Moody, and Kingsley Shacklebolt right behind her.

Professor McGonagall said angrily, "If you touch a hair on Potter's head, I'll make sure you spend the rest of your life in prison, Mr. Malfoy!"

Lupin and the others looked surprised at how brave McGonagall was being, but didn't say a word.

Mr. Malfoy said, "Well, if it isn't Minerva McGonagall and her army. I heard what happened to Dumbledore, and it's really sad."
Professor McGonagall hissed, " Don't you try to mock the memory of ALBUS DUMBLEDORE!" She screamed Dumbledore's name so loud that everyone was covering their ears.

Suddenly, Lucius Malfoy and the Deatheaters were knocked back by some magic powers. Harry turned to see Aunt Petunia, looking shocked at herself. Even McGonagall and the other Order Members were shocked.

Uncle Vernon was stammering, "Petunia, what did you just do?"

Aunt Petunia turned to look at Harry and said, "Vernon, I couldn't let them hurt my family, especially my dead sister's son." She had tears coming out of her eyes when she was saying this.

Dudley stepped forward and said, "This is just like what I saw when I was attacked by the Demenders."

Everyone turned around to look at Dudley, and Uncle Vernon said, "What did you see, Duddykins?"

Dudley said, "I saw us being threatened by bad wizards, when suddenly Mum did magic."
Aunt Petunia looked embarrassed by all this.

Suddenly, a voice screamed, "Is my Ronniekins okay! I couldn't stand it worrying that my son was in danger." It was Mrs. Weasley standing in the hallway.

Professor McGonagall looked annoyed and said, "Molly, what are you doing here? It's too dangerous for you to be here."

Mrs. Weasley looked furious and said, "Do you think I would just sit back when I knew something was going to happen to my son? I looked at the clock at home, and saw that Harry, Ron, and Hermione were in trouble and decided to come investigate. Harry's more like my son, and I can't let anything happen to Harry and Ron."
Professor McGonagall said, "Very well. I need to speak to you for a few minutes anyway after I deal with the Deatheaters."

Mrs. Weasley ran to hug Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Ron looked embarrassed, and the Dursleys were still looking shocked at what was going on.

Professor McGonagall took her wand out of her robe, and some silvery-like ropes flew out of her wand, and it bound the unconscious Deatheaters on the floor. Harry recognized the spell, because he had seen Dumbledore do it in the Department of Mysteries two years ago, but he didn't expect Professor McGonagall to know the spell too.

McGonagall said, "Kingsley, take the Deatheaters away, and have the Minister deal with them. Molly, come with me for a moment." Kingsley left, with the Deatheaters levitating behind him. Professor McGonagall left the room with Mrs. Weasley, and a few minutes later, they returned. Harry looked at Mrs. Weasley to ask what they were talking about. All Mrs. Weasley said was, "I can't tell you. You'll have to find out."

Professor McGonagall turned to the trio and said, "I would appreciate if you three waited out in the hallway with Remus, Nymphadora, and Alastor. Potter, I just need a word with your relatives."
Mrs. Weasley said, "What do you want me to do, Minerva?" She already had taken her wand out of her robe.

Professor McGonagall looked at the wand and said, "It isn't necessary, Molly. I would like you to just stay quiet, because you have already caused some trouble!" She pushed Mrs. Weasley out the door along with everyone else. The door closed, and Harry was left in the hallway with Lupin, Tonks, Moody, Ron, Hermione, and Mrs. Weasley.

A few minutes later, Professor McGonagall came out of the kitchen, and she looked pitiful and said sadly, "Potter, your aunt explained everything to me. I'm sorry Professor Dumbledore didn't tell you everything."

Harry said, "Aunt Petunia never finished telling me the story about my family."

Professor McGonagall looked sad and said, "I'll tell you everything later, but not right now. It's too dangerous staying here. Remus, go to Potter's room and get his things." Lupin left the room, and returned with Harry's things.

Professor McGonagall said when Lupin returned, "Now, I have to take Arabella to Madam Pomfrey, but Nymphadora, Alastor, Remus, and Molly will escort you three back to Grimmauld Place." She levitated Mrs. Figg with her wand, and with a swish of cloak, McGonagall and an unconscious Mrs. Figg disappeared from the room. Harry looked surprised and was about to ask Lupin, but all Lupin said was, "We need to get going, Harry." Harry followed Lupin outside with Tonks and Hermione behind him, and with Moody, Ron, and Mrs. Weasley following in the rear.
