I don't own Harry Potter, only the OC

Hello guys, Badger here. I am glad to see people enjoyed the previous chapter. I was even given a few points about Harry's cloak and Dumbledore, so thanks for that. Now, I have found College has been getting a little bit easier, so it is easier to post chapters, though that may change. Anyway, here is chapter 11 and I hope you enjoy.

Chapter 11

The end of First year and an arrest

Dumbledore watched, as the spirit wraith of Voldemort flew away from the chamber. He knew for a long time, that Professor Quirrell was acting as a host for the most feared Dark Lord in history. He could've done something about it, but decided not to. Dumbledore believed he will make a good test for Harry Potter, to see if his mother's protection, which flowed in his blood, was still working. Throughout the year, he had left hints for Harry to enter the third floor corridor, where he will come across Fluffy, the three headed dog. From there, he will then discover the Stone, which will then lead to him encountering Quirrell. Dumbledore would remain disillusioned just in case something went wrong. He didn't want the boy to die. However, none of that happened.

None of his hints or clues worked. One time, Dumbledore had the stairs deliberately move, so they stopped on the necessary floor, right outside the room where Fluffy resided. However, because James was there, he suggested they should wait, until the stairs moved back, which they did and left 10 minutes later when the stairs moved once more. The only thing that did go well, was when Harry discovered the Mirror. Thanks to his wards, he knew when Harry entered the room. Unfortunately, when he arrived, Harry was gone and had not returned.

Not wanting Voldemort to get his hands on the Philosophers Stone, he went ahead to stop him. They duelled, before Voldemort fled, sensing he was losing, which killed poor Quirrell. Dumbledore was hoping to bring the Professor back to the light. Dumbledore stared at the mirror, where his brother, sister and Grindelwald, before he turned dark, looking back at him, smiling. He thought about Harry, as he processed everything that happened. He wondered if now was the time to train the boy. No, not yet. Voldemort was nothing but a wraith right now. He wasn't a threat. Once he began to rise again, that's when he will train the young boy…before he would have to sacrifice himself. It saddened the Headmaster, but if he knew of a way to remove Horcrux in his head without killing the boy, he would but it just couldn't be done. The boy had to die, once the rest of Voldemort's Horcrux's were destroyed. It was the only way. Once it happened, and Voldemort was gone for good, he will make sure Harry is remembered as a hero for centuries to come. For now, he needed to make a few plans.

Harry, James and Daphne sat at the Slytherin table. It was the end of their First Year and they were attending the end of year feast. The rest of the year had gone smoothly. After Christmas, Daphne introduced the boys to Tracey Davis. She was a rather bubbly girl and had hung around the Trio quite a bit. Susan Bones and the Weasley Twins had also spoke and hung with them a bit. James and Harry also spoke on occasion with Neville Longbottom. The Gryffindor boy could use a bit of confidence, if James was being honest. Harry also did well in classes, thanks to James' help and influence, he and James were practically tied first in their year, much to Hermione's annoyance. Speaking of the bushy haired girl, despite the odd comment about them cheating, she left them alone, whilst trying to beat them in classes. Ron Weasley, also made the odd comment about the two of them, but hadn't tried anything else, though Harry suspected that the hot head would try something in the near future.

Everyone in the Great Hall turned their attention to Dumbledore, as he stood up, with Professor McGonagall clinking her glass.

"Another year gone" The Headmaster spoke "Another year, gone! And now, as I understand it, the house cup needs awarded and the points stand thus. In fourth place: Gryffindor, with 312 points! In third place: Hufflepuff, with 352 points! Second: Ravenclaw, with 426 points! And in first place, with 472 points: Slytherin house!"

Slytherin House cheered loudly, with the other Houses applauding, each student in varying degrees of respect.

"Well done Slytherin" Dumbledore continued, as the applause died down "Now, as I'm sure you are waiting to eat, so tuck in"

Dumbledore sat down as the food appeared. The students wasted no time in digging in to their meals. Harry had a rather brilliant first year in all honesty. The only thing he had to worry about, right now, was his relatives.

The train ride on the way back to Kings Cross was a relaxing one. Harry, James and Daphne sat in a compartment, just talking about whatever came to mind. During the train ride, the Weasley Twins, Tracey and Susan arrived and joined them, with Harry enjoying their company. When they arrived at the station, the Trio took a moment to say their goodbyes.

"So, Daphne, what plans do you have for the holidays?" James asked

"I don't know just yet, but I plan to spend time with Astoria, who will be starting her first year at Hogwarts in September" Daphne replied "What about you?"

"No, I've just finished my first year" James smiled, which caused Harry and Daphne to roll their eyes, before he turned serious "Hopefully, if things go well, the Dursleys will be arrested"

Daphne nodded in understanding. James and Harry, albeit reluctantly, had told her about the abuse he had endured at his relatives. Not wanting the muggles to get away with it, Daphne offered for her dad to help, who was pretty highly respected in the Ministry. James accepted, believing that her father could be very helpful.

"I do hope that they get what they deserve Harry" Daphne said, which caused Harry to smile appreciatively at her "I have to go, I'll see you guys soon, write to me"

James and Harry waved goodbye to her, as she walked off, to wherever her family were waiting for her. As she disappeared from view, James turned to Harry, with a mix of seriousness and concern.

"Nervous Harry?" He asked

"A little bit" Harry admitted

"Understandable" James nodded "Just remember what I said…act normal, as if nothing has changed and wait for me to arrive"

Harry nodded, before he approached the barrier separating them from the muggle world. James gently patted his shoulder. Harry took a deep breath before he ran through the barrier. James watched, until he disappeared from view.

"Jinx!" He called

The small excitable elf popped next to him, a second later.

"Kind master called for Jinx, what can Jinx do for you?" Jinx asked

"It's time Jinx" James said "remember where to take me?"

"Yes, Jinx remembers Master James' instructions" Jinx nodded

James allowed Jinx to take his arm, before the two of them Disapparated away.

Harry's nerves were not improved when he came out from the other side of the barrier, to immediatley see his relatives waiting for him, looking at him with looks of disgust and hatred.

"It's about time boy!" Vernon growled, when he approached "Come on, you have wasted enough of our time already!"

Harry followed them dutifully, keeping his head down. He did as James told him too. To act natural. He wasn't sure how long he would have to keep the act up, but he trusted James. He was forced into the car, as Vernon threw his stuff into the boot, with enough disrespect to make Harry know, that his uncle didn't care if something of his was damaged. The car journey was a difficult one, as Vernon kept talking derogatory terms towards the Wizarding World, and insulting Harry, saying how it wouldn't be long until the Wizarding World threw him out not wanting him either, how he has no friends and how he never will. Petunia and Dudley laughed and joined in with some comments. Harry had to bite his tongue, to prevent from lashing out.

When the car pulled up in the driveway of 4 Privet Drive, Vernon forcefully dragged him out of his seat, as well as taking out his trunk. Harry was dragged into the house by the collar of his shirt. Vernon threw Harry's trunk into the cupboard under the stairs, before he violently threw Harry into the living room. Harry fell to the ground with a dull thud, his head hitting the small table next to the sofa, as he fell.

"You no longer have those freaks around!" Vernon growled "They can't help you!"

Harry felt a large fist come into contact with the side of his head, which knocked him back down again, which caused his vision to blur. This punch was followed by a kick to his side. Vernon raised his fist, to strike again, only to be interrupted when the front door practically went of its hinges as it slammed open. The Dursleys turned to see some boy with purple hair and bright hazel eyes, which danced with rage. Harry smiled weakly. Though his vision was slightly blurred, the purple hair told him it was James.

"Who are you!" Vernon demanded

"Who I am doesn't matter right now" James replied, in forced calmness "What I want to know is what you are doing!"

"Giving him what he deserves" Vernon spat "I don't know why some stranger like you will care, he is a freak!"

In a split second, the Dursleys found themselves binded and thrown onto the sofa. They stared at James, who was pointing his wand at them.

"You're one of them!" Petunia screeched "You are one of those freaks!"

"The only freaks I'm seeing are you three!" James growled "I saw those scars on Harry's back in Hogwarts, but to see your fat oath of a husband pounding on him, brought that to a harsh reality…I was going to try and have a calm discussion with you lot, but now…I am tempted to kill you…but I won't…now tell me, why…why you would raise your fists to your own flesh and blood!"

"What is there to know?" Vernon spat, face going purple with rage "He is a freak just like you! He deserves everything we do to him! Freaks like that shouldn't be treated with respect! They are abominations! We forced him to cook, clean and garden, because we had to put him in his place! We beat him in hopes that the freakishness will be beaten out of him! Unfortunately all attempts failed! Sometimes I wished I just killed him when he appeared on our doorstep!"

James felt his blood boil as the fat walrus spoke. When Vernon said he wished he killed Harry, he had to restrain himself from giving the man a lot of pain. Instead, he took a small breath, before he pocketed his wand.

"Thanks, that was very informative" He said "Wouldn't you agreed Ms Bones?"

"I agree Mr Badger" A voice replied, before two people disillusioned themselves, followed by several others, which made the Dursleys pale slightly

The two people at the front, were Amelia Bones, a middle aged woman, with copper red hair that was slowly going grey and was wearing a monocle and Ignatius Greengrass, Daphne's father, who had steel blue eyes and short black hair. When his daughter approached him about what she was told about Harry, he immediatley offered his help. Now, seeing the fat oath begin to hit Harry and tell James why they raise their fists to the boy, made the man feel sick.

"Vernon, Petunia and Dudley Dursley, you are under arrest for child abuse towards the last living member of the Ancient and Noble House of Potter" Amelia said "You don't need to say anything, for it could harm your defence…Aurors Smith and Jones, please detain and send them to Ministry Holding Cells, until their trial"

The Dursleys began protesting and yelling profanities, as the two Aurors approached. This fell on deaf ears, before they were stunned and Disapparated away. Now that they were gone, James approached Harry, who was still on the ground.

"You okay Harry?" He asked

"Y-yeah" Harry replied

"Miss Bones, permission to take Harry to a Healer, to make sure he has no lasting injuries" James said

"Permission granted" Amelia said, helping James pick Harry of the ground

"Will they be gone for good?" Harry asked

"Don't worry Harry" Amelia said "With what your uncle said, they won't be walking away free anytime soon"

There we are guys. The end of first year.

I hope you like the small segment at the start. I wanted something to be added, as the Trio wouldn't be facing Quirrell. We also know a little bit about Dumbledores plans, though that won't be happening until Voldemort regains a new body. I do have to admit, I planned to have Tracey Davis introduced earlier in the story, along with Daphne being told about Harry's abuse, but forgot to add it, so I had them mention in a one off segment. I also have to ask, what would you guys think about adding in Ginny to the story, where she will have a crush on Harry, but that will eventually go away, where she will see him as a close friend or older brother? Please let me know. As to the rest of the friend group we have:

Harry, James and Daphne [The Main Trio]

Neville Longbottom, Susan Bones, Pansy Parkinson, The Weasley Twins, Tracey Davis [Possible friends]

Astoria Greengrass, Luna Lovegood and Ginny Weasley [Possible friends, to still be introduced]

Please let me know what you think about the characters I have mentioned as being friends and please give me more character ideas.

We have also had the Dursleys arrested, no doubt you guys were looking forward to that. Before you ask about James doing underage magic, that will be explained in the next chapter. I know it may have been a bit much with having Vernon declare he wished he killed Harry as a baby, but I wanted to make it so that he would definitely get locked up.

I hope you enjoyed the chapter and I hope I will see you in the next. Seeing as it will be the Dursleys trial next chapter, I'm sure you'd want to see them put in prison. Now that First year is over and they will soon be in Second year, that's when there will be changes that deviate from the canon story.

How will Dumbledore react to the Dursleys abuse? Find out next time.
