Dislcaimer: As of yet I have not received ownership of either Harry Potter or Star Wars, and I do not believe I will sometime soon either, so yea, this does not belong to me, it is simply a piece of fanfiction I write for my own pleasure.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Harry noticed that Snape had gone pale and…worried, perhaps he was afraid of Harry telling the truth of what had happened down there, or was it what Harry had seen in his memories. Turning his face towards Dumbledore, Harry removed all emotion from his face, so that his eyes were cold and hard as steel, with an equally hard voice Harry started, "What I would like to know first Sir, is why in the world you are allowing the man who is the reason my parents are dead teach here", Harry said, allowing his anger show over his face, and he noted with great satisfaction that Dumbledore's face had gone a pasty white, while Snape had palled even more and had started shivering.

Chapter 8. First Sign of Darkness.

"I'm not quite sure I understand what you are talking about Harry", said Dumbledore slowly as the colour returned to his face, his eyes had dimmed and for the first time Harry saw him he realized just how old Dumbledore had to be.

But the sight of Dumbledore all weary and downtrodden did nothing to alleviate Harry's feelings, in fact it only increased Harry's rage that he tried to fool him by playing the guilt card. "Do not lie to me", Harry hissed. "We Jedi have far more potent capabilities of knowing how to detect someone from lying than your pitiful forced attempts, and stop entering my mind", he finished.

Dumbledore yelped as though he had been electrocuted and his eyes narrowed at Harry. "Well young Harry, I would like to know more about these Jedi, why have we never heard of them before"? he said.

Harry cursed himself, in a fit of anger he now had to explain more about himself and the Jedi, sighing heavily he walked over to where one of the windows stood. "Tell me professor, have you ever looked up at the starry night sometimes, just looking and become mesmerised at all the stars out there"? Harry asked softly, at Dumbledore's nod he continued.

"What eludes the magical world, and the muggles as well is that just about every star out there have planetary systems with some form of life on it. A large part of the galaxy is a part of the Galactic Republic. A body consisting of over twenty thousand star systems, each of them with representatives at the senate one the planet of Couruscant close to the galactic core".

Harry looked at the stunned Dumbledore, and the absolutely astonished face of Snape with a snort before he looked towards the sky again.

"A Jedi is a defender of peace and justice in the galaxy, we use the Force to protect others, we serve as protectors, investigators, diplomats and if decided by the Jedi Council we serve as warriors and leaders in the armies of the Republic", he said looking Dumbledore in the eyes.

"So you are soldiers then", barked Snape, looking at Harry with disgust. Harry whirled around, unconsciously throwing a strong Force blast at Snape, who only barely managed to stay on his feet.

"As I said we are keepers of the peace, not soldiers", said Harry bitterly. "A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defence, never attack. We will defend ourselves, and much better than most people I admit, but we never look for fights or war, we prefer a peaceful solution to solve the problems", Harry finished softly.

"What, by use of the Imperius Curse Potter, because that is exactly what you tried to use on me down in the dungeons", spat Snape. Harry looked smugly at Snape for a few seconds before speaking again. "What I used on you was a Jedi Mind Trick, essentially I use the Force to plant a small incredibly tempting offer in your mind and you feel compelled to follow it, extreme commands can be resisted of course, and it works infinitely better on the weak minded", Harry finished.

Before Snape could do more Dumbledore intervened. "Ah Harry can, eh all Jedi perform this, um Mind Trick of yours"? he asked carefully. "All Jedi learn how to use the Mind Trick at the age of eight, how long time it takes to master it to a degree where you can use it varies, but most have mastered the basics by the age of ten, stronger Jedi learn to use it with much more skill and power than what the young ones have", Harry finished, inwardly grinning like the Cheshire cat at the expressions of Dumbledore and Snape.

"And why are you here then if the Jedi are out guarding the galaxy"? Dumbledore asked. "I was on a mission when something went wrong with my ship. I jumped into hyperspace before having finished the coordinates and was luck enough to avoid flying into a star, planet or other such things that exists out in space. My ships hyperdrive used too much power and died out, dropping me into normal space a few hours flight from earth, remembering that I used to live here I flew the ship into the atmosphere to find someone who could help", here Harry sighed deeply before sitting into a chair, allowing himself to fall into the comforting presence that was the Force.

"I had not counted on the British air forces trying to shoot me down, and as my communication devise was damaged the opened fire, my ship crashed into the see not far from the hut where you found me Headmaster, since then I have been learning as much as I can, however if I am to return to the Republic I am going to need the help from muggle scientists, who are used to technology, with a few push's from my side I believe I can manage a communication device that will send a signal far enough for it to be picked up by a passing ship", he finished.

"But now that I have told you a bit more than I had originally planned, on both the republic and the Jedi, I will like for you to explain Snape's behaviour towards me. He forcibly entered my mind three times the last with brutal enough force that he momentarily passed my shields, had I been a normal child without defences that would have constituted as mind rape, a very serious crime that is dealt harshly with in the Republic. One's mind is the most private sanctum, a representation of one's soul, to forcibly enter with force strong enough to deal permanent damage is one of the most rudest insults a person can afflict on another, and if he does so again I shall not hesitate to place him under arrest and quarantine until such a time that he can be brought in front of the Jedi Council to explain his actions", Harry finished with a dead serious tone.

He wouldn't really do it of course but he would defend himself, and besides Snape did not know it either. Of course Snape did not like to be threatened by Harry, and was in the process of whipping out his wand, when a snap hiss was heard, and a yellow blade of pure energy was humming dangerously a few inches from his throat.

Harry held the blade in his right hand with a perfect calm, his eyes and face was calm and devoid of emotion, as he looked at Snape who was glaring at Harry with pure unadulterated hatred, and to his side where Dumbledore was watching with concern, hesitant to take action.

"I warn you Snape, I will not hesitate to harm you if you attack me, I can easily cut off your head if I wish to, but preferably I'll take your arm, I take no pleasure in killing and do not wish to start with it should there be another way", Harry finished as he backed off, carefully lowering his lightsaber.

Without as much as another glance at Harry Snape strode out of the room with his robes billowing out behind him.

With another sigh Harry sat down in his chair again looking tiredly at the Headmaster. "I apologise sir, I have no desire to kill or harm anyone, but as a Jedi I refuse to be manipulated or used by anyone, I shall respect authority when it is due, however that man deserves no respect from me, I saw many of his memories…and what he did, it disgusts me", Harry spat.

"All Jedi are trained to let go, accepting the fact that their parents are either dead, or is going to be a little if non existent part of their lives, however the years I spent at the Dursley's, I always hoped that I had some family who loved me and would take me in, and now I found out that the man who is responsible for Voldemort killing them is teaching here, and the way he talks to me, he is the reason my parents are dead AND HE FURTHER INSULTS THEIR MEMORY BY INSULTING ME WITH THEM…HE KILLED THEM"! Harry screamed as tears ran from his eyes, all those years of abuse, all those dark memories and emotions he had hid and locked away over the years came out to front.

With a hateful scream that shattered all glass within a hundred feet of him, and all the various trinkets in Dumbledore's office was crushed to pieces or crumpled bits of metal by an oppressing force of dark emotions, with one last snarl at the shell-shocked Dumbledore Harry leaped out of the window, using the Force to land softly on the grass lawns far below, looking back at Dumbledore's shocked face that had appeared in the window Harry turned and ran into the forest.

ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo

Dumbledore was shocked, as he listened to the young, and earlier so happy and controlled boy. Shocked as he barely sensed the raw hurt emotions the boy was hiding inside. And as he let go, released all his emotions Dumbledore felt for the first time in his life true fear, he understood that if Harry managed to control these emotions and use them to his advantage no one would stand a chance. The sheer darkness he had been emanating for a few seconds make Dumbledore so sick and cowed that he had wanted nothing for a few moments but to empty the contents of his stomach and curl up and hope the darkness disappeared.

He was even more shocked when the incredible darkness sunk away to leaving only a hint of anger, he had looked shocked at the boy who was trying to overcome his powerful emotions. Said boy had given him a sneer that even mighty Slytherin himself would have been jealous of, and then he had suddenly leapt out through the window. With a cry of denial as Dumbledore believed the boy would kill himself, he had ran over to the window, only to be astounded as Harry landed on both of his feet on the ground, turn around and look up at him before running into the forest.

ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo

Ten minutes later the three Heads of Houses at Hogwarts was treated to the sight of the Headmaster standing lost in his own thoughts staring out of the window. Away in a corner a ball of ruffled feathers revealed a thoroughly baffled phoenix, looking around at a completely demolished office.

"Albus"? asked Minerva McGonagall. "Albus what happened? We heard a loud scream and everything made of glass in half of the castle was smashed into tiny pieces". She said.

Albus Dumbledore turned around and looked at the confused and anxious faces of Minerva McGonagall, Filius Flitwick and Pomona Sprout.

"Harry and Severus had an incident in potions today that ended with Severus casting the legilimens charm on Harry", he said ignoring the other teachers gasps. "Harry managed to beat Severus out of his mind, and as an unfortunate happenstance saw several memories of Severus' darker past, including a memory that led him to believe that Severus was the reason for his parents deaths, he became so angry that he crushed about everything in my office as well as every piece of glass a few hundred feet away from us with accidental magic I believe, before he took off and jumped through the window", he finished sadly, feeling a little guilty about the small lie he told about Snape.

The other teachers watched in shock at the greatest wizard of the age, who was seemingly to shocked to care any more, and as one they all walked over to the window, dreading what they would see at the bottom. To their surprise however there was no smashed body lying on the ground, turning back to Dumbledore with confused faces they were about to ask him where Harry was when Dumbledore cut them off.

"Harry survived, he simply landed elegantly on his two feet before running into the forest, so I shall start a search for him, Minerva I expect you to get all students to their common rooms, Fawkes", he turned towards the red bird who was busy trying to preen his feathers back into their immaculate elegance. "I will need you to help me find Harry", he said.

Fawkes on the other hand looked stupidly at Dumbledore as if trying to say 'have you lost your damn mind you old coot?'. Dumbledore sighed at his stubborn phoenix, for all of their good nature they could be immensely stupid stubborn or arrogant at times. "Fawkes", and the three teachers were treated to a sight they never believed they would see. Albus Dumbledore whining to a ruffled red featherball who was puffing his chest out in arrogance. "Please Fawkes, I'll get you anything", Dumbledore pleaded while Fawkes was looking hopefully at him, as if conveying a desperate wish.

Dumbledore sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose, "very well I shall take you to Australia this summer, so you can visit those colourful birds you seem to fancy", he said in a rejected tone as Fawkes puffed out his chest proudly again, muttering 'bloody randy bird' for himself, not silently enough however as the mouths of his teachers dropped again after hearing Albus Dumbledore curse a bird, said bird pecked him hard on his head, before flying out into the grounds, singing for himself trying to find Harry.

Albus Dumbledore turned towards his teachers, and actually blushed as he realized they had been there during the entire scene, they had witnessed him to be outclassed by a bird who had a fetish with large exotic and colourful birds, and later to be admonished by said bird, he sighed this was just not his day.

With a few more words to the teachers in his office he went to find Hagrid so that they could scour the forest for Harry Potter.

ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo000ooo

Harry Potter himself was in a rather bad mood. Due to him completely loosing control in the Headmasters office and smashing all of his stuff he had now become lost in a forest that was supposed to be dangerous. He groaned again as he thought on the price all of those trinkets and what they would cost him.

As he fell over another damn root he swore so strongly in hutteese that it would probably even make the most die hard mandalorian blush. In a moment of inner clarity he wondered where in the world Master Vrook had picked up all of these expressions that he was currently spewing forth to the world, or forest in any case.

Though when he thought about it didn't really surprise him. Vrook had spent more assignments where he had to go undercover in many bars with rather questionable clientele. Again his mind started to wander, it seemed a bit hypocritical of Vrook who had probably spent more time in a bar than most Jedi together had one more than one occasion, most of the times after getting caught performing a prank, had predicted that he Harry Potter would die in a bar brawl, Harry snorted at the idea.

The Council sometimes predicted someone's death but most of the time it was more silly banter than actual predictions, though there was that time when Master Ell, had predicted someone's death to be a traffic accident, and woe betide a week later the unfortunate knight had managed to kill himself by breaking his neck of a traffic sign when trying to impress some of his friends with his speeder, after that Harry had decided that the more ridiculous prophesised death he was promised the more seriously he would take it, the bar brawl was just an exception of course he told himself. With a nod to himself he turned his mind back to the here and now, and he did not like what he saw.

Standing around him was spiders, not just spiders but big…scary…spiders. With a gulp and a nervous laugh Harry turned to run only to find himself surrounded by them, and worse they were all making some strange clicking and chanting something that sounded like 'food, food, food'.

Switching over to some good old fashioned Duros swearwords, Harry ignited his lightsaber, before taking a backwards flip into the air, where he landed perfectly on a thick branch. Undeterred the spiders started climbing up. With a curse Harry jumped down into them, swinging his saber as he did, slicing several of them into a few more pieces than they should have. With a slight hand gesture several of the spiders were flung away from him by a Force blast. Wasting no time Harry ran as fast as he could towards where he could feel Hogwarts, slicing trees with his saber cutting them down so that he slowed the spiders down.

After what seemed like an eternity Harry suddenly crashed into a large piece of furcoat, that was worn by Hagrid. Shaking his head Harry looked up at a smiling Hagrid, who yelled to professor Dumbledore that he had found him.

A few minutes later Dumbledore came out only to be treated to the sight of an unsure Rubeus Hagrid who was scratching his head in confusion, and a distinctly dishevelled Harry Potter who was currently twisting around on the ground trying not to break his back as he was laughing hysterically.

Dumbledore turned towards Hagrid as if waiting for an explanation, studiously ignoring the occasional words like ' spiders…bar brawl…Vrook the alcoholic…' Hagrid was on the other hand looking helplessly at Dumbledore. Neither man did not have the slightest idea on how to help Harry.

"I think 'es gone inta shock", Hagrid grumbled to Dumbledore. Harry seemed to get a moment of clarity as he started mumbling 'stop laughing, stop laughing, stop laughing', this however sent him into another set of giggles that surprised all three off them. Harry managed to stop giggling enough to try a new mantra that greatly disturbed Albus Dumbledore and made him question the boy's sanity for some time as he started to mutter, 'Vrook in underwear, Vrook in underwear, Vrook in….EWWWWWWWW', he suddenly said as he got a clear picture of Vrook doing a very disturbing jiggly dance on the tables in the great hall of the Temple, clad in nothing bit a skimpy pink piece of lace.

With those disturbing images Harry blissfully passed out, from the mental exhaustion he had suffered during the day. With a shrug of their shoulders Dumbledore and Hagrid turned to walk up to the castle, Dumbledore floating Harry along by the tip of his wand, and both breathed a collective sigh of relief as he was delivered into the 'tender mercies' of Madame Pomphrey.

AN: I'm sorry I couldn't get this longer, but I have been very busy lately so I decided to post what I've got and try to make it longer (twice as long preferably) next time. As you can see here, Harry still have some unresolved issues with his past, and he is still capable of succumbing to emotions like any other human, we shall see more of Snape next chapter, and begin to unravel the mystery that is Tulak Hord.

Till next time ladies and gents, reviews and contructive critisism is always welcome.
