Chapter 7: The Beginnings of the Order of Potter!

When the portkey arrived at Potter Manor Sirius gently shook Harry awake in order to get him to accept the others to his home. When this was done Harry snuggled into Sirius and went back to sleep. Whilst they made their way to the Manor Bill asked Sirius a few questions:

"Sirius, don't think I'm being nosy but if you and Harry are couple then what are Remus and Harry?"

"Bill have you ever heard of the suggestion of Soul Mates?"

"Yes I have. Oh! You guys are triple soul mates aren't you?"

"Yeah!"

"Hey Siri, when you were talking to Dumbledore you said r-r-raped by his u-uncle. Please tell me that's not true!"

"I wish I could Bill but I can't! He was raped by his uncle and I don't think it was the first time either!" Suddenly there was a muffled scream from Harry who had burrowed himself deep into Sirius clothes. Sirius lowered them both to the ground and gently removed Harry from his arms. When he did the others could hear Harry's heart wrenching, terrified scream.

"No Sirius! Please don't fight her! Please! Remus don't go in there please! I'll lose you like I lost Siri! No Uncle Vernon please! I c-can't take this anymore! I didn't mean to d-drop the p-plate please don't hit me! Please!"

"Harry! Come on baby Remus and I are both here! Come on my love don't do this to me! Harry!"

"Sirius! Padfoot!" Remus cried. Sirius cursed himself for his stupidity and immediately turned into Padfoot. He snuffled at Harry's hand and put his cold wet nose into the palm. Harry started awake and flung himself at Sirius sobbing hysterically. Sirius pulled him close and just held him. When Harry wouldn't calm down Remus came forward too and pulled both men to him. Slowly but surely Harry managed to calm down. The others were awed by what they were seeing until suddenly the huge doors opened and Dobby, Winky, Lily and James ran out.

"L-lily, J-James, is that r-really you?"

"Kingsley? Oh my god you look no different! Its so great to see you!"

"You too James!"

"Shut up the pair of you, we have more important things to talk about! Like what the hell happened to put Harry in this state!"

"Chill Lils! I have one word for you, Dumbledore!"

"Dumbledore? What the fucking hell did he do to MY son!"

"Lily! I can't believe you just swore!"

"Shut it James! Remus what the hell happened? One minute Sirius and James were flying and the next minute Sirius screams Harry and apparates away! So I ask again: What the fucking hell did Dumbledore do to MY son!"

"We were walking towards Floreans to meet up with Tonks and Kingsley for an Ice Cream when we were confronted by Molly Weasley, Minerva McGonagall and later Dumbledore. When he said that Harry had to go back to the Dursley's I noticed that Harry had started to shiver in fright and had a go at Dumbledore. I then went to take Harry's arm, making sure he could see me at all times but Dumbledore had already grabbed his arm. Harry thought it was Vernon and became hysterical. There was nothing I could do but suddenly Sirius arrived and calmed him down. Obviously Harry is still suffering from that fright."

"That's it! Dumbledore is going to face the wrath of Lily Evans Potter! No one, I repeat NO ONE does this to MY son and gets away with it!" Harry whimpered at the harsh tone in his mum's voice.

"Lils calm down, your upsetting him even more!" Remus said.

"Oh my god, what am I doing. Come here sweetheart!" She whispered and gently, but firmly extracted Harry from Sirius and held him in her arms rocking him gently.

"I-I'm r-really s-sorry guys! I-I-I don't mean to be so pathetic but I c-can't bear it w-when people touch me without me knowing that they w-w-won't hurt me!"

"Shh Harry its alright! Look sweetie, I don't want to have to ask this baby but how many times did Vernon r-r-rape you?" Sirius said quietly, his hand still held tightly in Harry's.

"I-I-I…" Harry trailed off.

"Baby listen to me, Remus and I have already told you that we don't care but we need to know if we're going to help you. Look I'm sure the others wouldn't mind leaving if you're not ready to talk to too many people about it."

"No it's alright. Last night was the- the 5th time. I know I should have said something but he threatened to shoot any wizard he saw if I said anything. I was t-t-terrified. I d-didn't know what to do." Harry trailed off and started crying quietly once more. Sirius extracted him from Lily's arms and pulled him close.

"Harry, listen to me. What he did was wrong and you have no reason to feel guilty. You are the innocent in all this and he had no right to treat you like that! You deserve all the love and happiness in the world and that is precisely what you are going to get. Remus and I would do anything to ensure your happiness and so would your parents."

"We all would Harry! You mean the world to all of us! You've touched so many lives just by being you and don't you EVER forget that!" Tonks said forcefully and her words were echoed by all the others.

"Th-thanks you s-so much guys and there is something you can do for me. W-will you join my order? The Order of Potter." The others all nodded in assent and they all made there way inside. Sirius carried Harry, now sleeping peacefully, upstairs to their room and then made his way downstairs once more to talk with the others, though he did ask Dobby and Winky to tell him if Harry awoke at all. On Sirius's return, conversation turned to Dumbledore, Voldemort, Vernon and what they were going to do to ensure no one hurt their lover, son, nephew (Kingsley & Tonks), brother (Bill & Charlie) and best friend (Fred & George) ever again.
