This Chapter: Harry begins to walk again.

Now.........on with the story!


"Colloportus." he said as he pointed his wand at his door. It swung shut and sealed itself.

He was going to walk, even if it took all day. He had to be up and around as quick as possible if he was going to get his revenge on Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

He pushed himself up and felt a horrible pain in his back. He gritted his teeth and kept going. He swung his legs over the side of his bed. He pushed off gently from his bed and stood up.

His legs felt like someone had put a Jellylegs Jinx on the, but he remained standing. He felt his legs collapse under him and grabbed the table next to his bed. He took a tentative step forward, then another. He kept going.

All of a sudden he heard footsteps on the stairs. Someone was coming.

He had to get back to his bed, but there was no way he would get there in time. He heard whoever was outside try to open the door.

"Harry, open the door!" It was Sirius.

Harry sank to his knees as Sirius shouted "Alohomora!" Harry heard the lock click open. Sirius spotted Harry on the floor.

"Harry, what were you doing?" asked Sirius, rushing over to him.

"Walking." muttered Harry.

"You stay where you are, I'll be right back." said Sirius. He left the room and moments later was back with Lupin.

"What? You think we would let you alone without a guard?" said Sirius in response to the look on Harry's face. Together, Sirius and Lupin help Harry up and into bed.

"Dumbledore's not going to be pleased when he finds out about this Harry." said Lupin.

"Then don't tell him." muttered Harry.

"Fine, we won't. But if it happens again, Dumbledore will know." said Lupin.

Harry stared sullenly at the ceiling. Sirius and Lupin sensed that he didn't want to talk to them and left. Damn, thought Harry to himself.

He'd never get a chance to get out of Grimmauld Place with a guard watching him.
