HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY TO ME


Chapter 2: Destroying a Portrait


The Potters, Weasley's, Longbottom's, Andromeda Tonks, Narcissa Black and Draco Malfoy apparated to Hogwarts.

"Harry what are you going to do?" Ginny asks as they walk up to Hogwarts

"I honestly don't know. But if the letter is true. I can't be held responsible for my actions", Harry says

"Don't hold me to my actions either", George says angrily

His twin could be alive after these years. They walk through the halls of Hogwarts. All of them angry and was wondering if this was real or not. Harry looks at the gargoyle guarding the office. Magic coming off him. Ginny puts a hand on Harry's shoulder. Harry takes a deep breath and says the password. They go up the stairs to the Headmistresses office.

"Minerva?" Harry asks knocking on the door

"Come in Harry", Minerva says

It takes a minute for their full group to come into the office.

"What are you all doing here?" Minerva asks

Narcissa hands the letter to Minerva with a look of approval from Harry. Minerva gasps.

"You got my letter Harry", the portrait of Albus says

"So it is true?" Harry says in a deathly voice

"Yes. I didn't want you to lose more people", Albus says

"I LOST MY CHILDHOOD OVER YOU BECAUSE YOU TOOK MY PARENTS AWAY FROM ME!" Harry yells

"Harry…", Albus says shocked

"YOU KNEW I DIDN'T WANT TO GO BACK THERE I BEGGED TO STAY AT HOGWARTS AT THE END OF MY FIRST YEAR!" Harry yells

"It was for the best", Albus says shocked by Harry's yelling

"THE BEST WE THOUGHT WE LOST EVERYONE WE LOVE?" Harry yells

"I thought Fred was dead. Hell I even tried to kill myself. And he is alive after all this time?" George asks furiously

"I am truly sorry", Albus says

"I HAD TO WATCH MY BROTHER DIED! I EVEN TRIED TO THOUGHT ABOUT KILLING MYSELF unto Audrey came along", Percy yells

"WATCHING HARRY CRY OVER ALL HE HAD LOST! HOLDING HIM WHEN HE HAD NONE", Molly yells

"Being there for him watching him grieve. Each death took a piece of his soul", Hermione says

"Do you know how hard it is to loss a family member?" Arthur asks

"Yes", Dumbledore says

"BULL! DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE SEEING GEORGE WITHOUT FRED!?" Ron yells

"OR TEDDY LOOK OR DO SOMETHING LIKE HIS PARENTS?" Harry yells

"MY HUSBAND AND DAUGHTER! I was well on my way to give up even though I had Teddy. My husband and my daughter are my life! Teddy grown up without parents!" Andromeda yells

"If Sirius was here he could have helped Draco and I much sooner than Harry did! He is the Head of the Noble House of Black. I looked up to Sirius. How dare you!" Narcissa yells

"Sirius's death destroyed me! Now he is alive! Did he know what would happen?" Harry asks

"I told them that we would all live on. So in a way they all knew", Albus says

All of them are furious.

"What about my parents?" Neville asks

"They are alive in comas too", Albus says

"HOW DARE YOU! I GROW UP WITHOUT THEM! I VISITED THEM! NOW YOU SAY THEY COULD HAVE BEEN THERE FOR ME?" Neville yells

Luna holds him tight.

"WHAT ABOUT REMUS DIDN'T HE DESERVE TO KNOW HIS BEST FRIENDS ARE ALIVE?" Harry yells

"I couldn't risk it", Albus says

"Who are in comas?" Hermione asks

"Fabien and Gabion Prewett, James and Lily Potter, Marlene McKinnon, Frank and Alice Longbottom, Sirius Black, Edgar and Martha Bones, Emmeline Vane, Fred Weasley, Alastor Moody, Remus and Nymphadora Lupin, and Severus Snape", Albus says

"My brothers are alive?" Molly asks tears in her eyes

"Yes. They have been in comas the longest", Albus says

"HOW DARE YOU TAKE MY FAMILY AWAY! HOW DARE YOU SEND HARRY TO THOSE ABUSIEVE MUGGLES! HOW DARE YOU TAKE AWAY HIS PARENTS AND THE ONLY LINKS HE HAD TO THEM!" Molly yells

"Did they agree to it?" Harry asks quietly

"They didn't want to leave you. But I said Sirius will look after you", Dumbledore says

"That never happened did it?" Harry ask angrily, "Did you know Sirius was innocent before my third year?"

"Yes", whispered Dumbledore

Harry went red, "HOW DARE YOU!? HOW HE SURVIVED THAT LONG IS AMAZING! I WOULD HAVE HAD A NORMAL CHILDHOOD AND SIRIUS WOULD HAVE NEVER TURNED INTO THE SHELL OF A MAN I KNEW! YOUR TO BLAME FOR ALL OF THIS!" Harry yells

"It was for the Greater Good", Dumbledore says

"Is Dobby alive too?" Hermione asks

"Why would that be?" Ron asks

"He was part of the Order. He was the first elf to be", Hermione says

"Yes he is in a coma", Dumbledore says

An explosive burst of magic escapes Harry. Destroying the office. Dumbledore looked shocked but no one else their magic had been involved too.

"Why never did you tell us?" Draco asks

"I couldn't it would have lost us the war", Albus says

That did it all wands were pointed at the portrait.

"What are you going to do?" Dumbledore asks

"Destroy this portrait you don't deserve to be on this wall. You destroyed many families. Minerva do we have permission to destroy this portrait?" Harry asks not taking his eyes of the afraid Dumbledore

"I give my permission", Minerva says looking disgusted at Dumbledore

"Any last words?" Harry asks as all wands light up to destroy the one that had caused them all pain

"I am truly sorry", Dumbledore says

"REDUCTIO!" everyone shouts

The portrait was destroyed leaving a hole in the wall. Harry waved his wand fixing everything in Minerva's office.

"Thank you Harry", Minerva says

"Would you like to come with us to wake up everyone?" Harry asks

"Yes please. Do you think we need Poppy?" Minerva asks

"I would get her. Who knows what HE did to them", Harry says

"I will floo her now", Minerva says going to the floo

Harry turned to look at his family. All of them had tears in their eyes.

"We better go and wake them up", Bill says as Poppy comes out of the floo

"Where we going Harry?" Fleur asks

"Dumbledore Manor"
