Author Notes: while i did say it happened after Third year, i seem to of miscalculated. in a 'I messed up and now im kinda stuck' type of Miscalculated. and I do apologize to my Readers. I'll try and correct the mistake this chapter but i was never very consistent -_- believe me i'd put a over hyper two ten year old to shame with my inability to keep focused.

Last Time: Betrayed by those he swore to protect, Locked away in the Wizarding worlds strongest prison, Harry Potter has sat in the dark recesses of his cell for over six years, ever since his Third year at hogwarts. now the light has come for him, to try and get their broken soldier to finish the job they need him for. but can they fix the damage that has been done? and what of Harry, is he really as damaged as they believe? and can the hurt of his friends betraying him, REALLY be forgiven.
Author Notes: I'm using a thing called TinyWord, it does have a spelling checker. go me yeah? so hopefully most of my Horrible spelling will be fixed for you lovely readers. i did go back and fix up as much as the thing could the first two chapters. but a lot of the names and such for harry potter make the spell checker go nutso. ALSO a second note, Just consider the whole story AU.. as in It doesn't fallow any particular path. don't expect it to make sense considering i think im insane and just putting it on paper with characters people can relate to.
He'd Been there a week, he'd gone to the bathroom when lead in and told to. he ate when told to and he went to sleep when told to though he always seemed to find his way back to the corner. and he'd found that he wasn't the only one with a healthy Grudge against those who'd harmed him. his... Godfather? new one anyways, Remus was damn near over protective of him. and did not like the others being near Harry. it was nice. he'd do his damndest to keep the werewolf near him hell even having gone so far as to 'respond' a bit more to remus then the others. when the other talked to him Harry's head would tip towards him a bit or he'd actually look up, sure his eyes where unfocused but it seemed enough to encourage the werewolf.
Well at least Encourage him to stay, but Harry was not going to argue with that. he Preferred Remus over any of the others. though they continued taking 'turns' talking to him. mentally he was all but screaming at Voldemort to HURRY HIS ASS UP. but the bloody Git was not even doing so. why was it when Harry DIDN'T want him to show up.. He showed up. but when he did he took his sweet time at doing so? Harry Shook his head, then froze, listening as a sharp breath was dragged in through parted lips. 'Shit..' the breather walked over and knelt in front of him and Remus' face came into view again. "Harry?" there was hope tingeing the voice.
Now his choice was respond, or not to respond if he responded the others would expect him to respond to them as well. Bloody Unlikely all things considered. he heard voices in the hall way and Remus had finally gone back to his chair. apparently giving up when Harry hadn't responded to him. Harry had to fight very hard NOT to flick his eye's towards the door when it opened. and he let Remus's voice wash over his mind as the man spoke softly. "Fred, Gorge.. Your mother didn't think you'd come.." Harry blinked slowly. why hadn't she thought the twins would come?"
"Yeah well, Harry's our Friend, we can Put aside our anger at their stupidity for him. " Came Gorge's drawl. "To Right you are mate." was Fred's add on. "Can't leave him with all those snakes in Lion coloring now can we?" Harry let his lips twitch. but no one noticed as the three talked amongst themselves. "Severus and Draco wanted to come but mum put her foot down. she doesn't want them in her house. never mind they've done more for the order then anyone." that was Fred again. Harry Wondered how their jokes shop was going. He'd have to ask when this was all over. "And besides even if he wasn't you are, and their acting like idiots. have they tried to apologize or do they STILL think the boy who lived could do what he supposedly had done?
Harry's mind played back on that day. He'd been walking home from the store with bags of grocery that his aunt had sent him for. not much like he had a choice he still did live under their roof, and most of the other menial task's had been cut back. much to his Relief. he did do the gardening, and some of the other chores, such as running to the store at all hours of the day or early evening. other then that the Durselys had ignored him. much to his delight. he rather LIKED them ignoring him. a hell of a lot less stress. sure they still made snide comments about his mother, his father.. his 'Freakishness' but other then that they left him alone. sure he did the dishes, took the garbage out.. but he figured that was normal stuff any child did in the house. never mind Dudley NEVER seemed to do any of that. he'd turned around a corner, heading through the park and to the tunnel that was not to far from it and lead towards Privet drive.. when he'd seen people up ahead of him. it was chilly so he had not thought much about who those people where.. though his hand had started inching towards the pocket with his wand in it. then he'd heard a voice from behind him shout. 'Stupify' and then nothing.. not even the sound of the grocery's hitting the ground.
When he'd come to he was in that same tunnel, he'd managed to shove himself to his feet, pick up his wand and stumble out of the Tunnel racing for the Durselys. hell he hadn't even realized there where no bags of Groceries left.. or the fact he'd been gone for a few days.. at the Trial he'd pleaded to use Veritaserum, to prove he wasn't a killer. hadn't harmed whom he'd been said to of been harmed. but he'd been denied. Fudge had been so EXSTATIC at finally 'catching' Harry at something he'd shipped him right off to Azkaban without a 'by your leave'. and there he'd sat, Six years of life, of learning .. gone. so now he was working on his own. it had started slowly at first. the magic learning, the wandless spells. because surely if you could USE a wand that amplified and directed it, if you practiced enough you could use your body. Harry Might know on one level that Severus had stood up for him with that back handed compliment in court.
after all he WAS a Gryffindor. he was Brave and fool hardy and loyal. but the Hat had also wanted to put him into Slytherin. And he had Cunning Wits indeed. he absently, in his head anyways, Hummed his own thoughts. mind pulling up the first song he'd heard the sorting hat sing before.
sometimes it seemed so..ODD.. that first year. like a dream that was fading fast. he'd long since lost his like of the Wizarding world which was fickle. He'd get back at Severus snape for all the humiliation in potions, but he'd also help the man..well get even. Severus Snape wasn't the type to do something for nothing. and harry , with as long as he'd been in Azkaban was by no means a Potions Master. Not like Severus Snape anyways. so he'd get even by black mailing the 'grease git' into doing what he wanted and that would be that. Then he'd still have Minerva McGonagall, Albus Dumbledore, Hermione Granger, Ronald "Ron" Weasley , and many others. but he had just as many supporters. boy wasn't that a shock to find out. ohh he'd known Remus Lupine was a supporter of his. albeit it was only as he was being dragged away and now by his reaction to Hermione. He didn't know the position of Fred and Gorge Weasley, He didn't know the position of Luna 'Loony' Lovegood, didn't know Neville Longbottom's position or.. wait no he knew Gorge and Fred's position. they where for him. so that meant Remus, Fred, Gorge, Severus, Draco.. sometimes thinking shit through in his head was a pain in the back side. he was never good at living listend to the sleeping form in the chair near the door and contemplated then went tense. the whole BUILDING rocked. and it had to be a building what with as many people as where in it. if he didn't know better, and he'd heard Misses Black Screaming bloody murder in the entry way, he'd think they'd brought him to the Black Residence.. then again it was under that one charm.. now what was it. Fidelius Charm if he wasn't mistaken. but then he could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time he was wrong about something. probably wouldn't be the last.
as he listend to the panic from other parts of the house he mentally ticked things off as Remus darted over to him and pulled him up to his feet leading him from the room and down the stairs he dimbly remembered. huh third floor, nice. as he was lead down the building lunged agian. why they didn't just apparate away he had no clue. maybe they'd been trapped with an anti appration ward. he was lead into the kitchen where there where a bunch of people. he heard Mrs. Weasley saying something about the floo network being cut. and felt a mental smile flare. ha. they weren't going anywhere. 'Wonder how long it'll take Snake Face to show up..' he thought idally. Moldie-voldie. he felt a small shiver flare down his spine as one of The wards around the Building dropped. and ticked them off, or at least what he could feel of was the outer layer. then there was a nasty one beneath it that would probably take a few moments, he wasn't sure what it could do to his minds eye it looked like a bowl shaped spell with barbs in it. sort of like muggle land mines. Another Ward went down and he tuned back in on what was being discussed.
"Mad-eye are there any other back exits to this place?" that was.. well he wasn't sure.. the Young women had tripped over a couple of things in her nervous pacing. he knew she was an Auror. but that was about it. he thought her name was Tonks..but really that was an odd name. then again many could probably think the same about his name. most though HAD been to impressed by his Scar to care. well before the whole 'trip to Azkaban bit anyways. "No, We're trapped there's another anti apparation ward over the place. I had dropped the one before that." Harry Snorted. if he wanted to he could apparate but as he didn't quite know THEIR way of it he wasn't sure. he sure as hell had never had the chance to learn.
"Well this is just great, get the kid into a corner and keep an eye on him we don't need him ether getting us in the back, or being taken .." Came an older male's voice. the man had what looked like burn marks on one cheek going down to his throat and what harry could see of his chest. the comment didn't irritate him, heck they amused him. hell he was considered nuttier then a fruit cake, and the man still considered him a threat. now that one had some sense in him. he didn't fight as Lupin pulled him to a corner and almost smiled when he saw Draco move to take up point beside him. the years had been kind to the Slytherin. 'then again he always did look good in whatever he was doing.' which used to irritate the hell out of harry. the only time he didn't look good was when the two of them where fighting.
