Tobias: AHH! That bloody BURNS!

Wulfric : Deal with it. It's the stuff cuddlebearlove gave us for that bite.

Tobias : Those creatures need to be killed.

Wulfric : Shut up for now, they are being taken care of, I don't know about killing them but they're locked away.

Tobias : Good, now you all enjoy this chapter which as usual, is as twisted as Wulfric.

Wulfric : Shut Up Tobias!

While Harry was running about the castle running some last minute errands for the teachers as they prepared for the feast that night, the students were boarding the train to come to Hogwarts. Ron happened to be meeting up with Hermione after she got out of the prefects meeting, but she didn't know exactly how to act around him. After their fourth year and the Yule Ball, she got the impression Ron liked her, but she didn't return those feelings. Now though, after the visit she had with Harry during the summer, she was beginning to have feelings towards him, and from the impression she got Harry returned them.

" Hey Hermione, how was your summer?" Ron asked before she could even sit in the compartment.

"Oh it was great. Got my OWLs back, visited Harry for a week and a half, spend some time in the sun, you know the normal. So what were your OWLs?" Hermione had been wondering what they were since Harry ended up with Ron's badge. She had the feeling he failed Potions since he never seemed to care about that class, other than to insult Professor Snape.

"Oh, visited Mr. Potter-Dumbledore eh? Figures. My OWLs weren't great as you know since I lost my prefect position to the headmaster's grandson. I got one O, in DADA. An E in Charms. A's in Transfiguration, Divination, and Astronomy. One P in Potions and a D in History of Magic. Happy, " Ron said in a huff.

"Fine Ron, if you are going to act like a sulky school boy, then I am not sitting in here with you. And McGonagall chose Harry as a replacement prefect. Not Albus." Saying that, Hermione stood up and stormed out leaving a jealous, angered Ron behind.

" Wait..did she just call him Albus!" he said outloud to himself.

Within no time, the Hogwarts Express had pulled into the station at Hogsmeade and from the train spilled forth the students. After the first years made it over to Hagrid and started their journey, the older students were on their way up to the school. Harry was waiting in the Great Hall already at the Gryffindor table when Hermione made her way through the crowd of students to him.

"Oh Harry! How have you been? Are you okay and everything? Not in trouble yet are you," she said in basically one breath while choking the life out of him in a death grip hug.

" 'Mione, I need to breathe!"

"Oh, sorry Harry. It's just I missed you."

"Well I missed you too. Hey Ron. How have you been? I know this summer's been rough, it has been for us all actually."

Ron just glared at Harry, " What do you mean ' for us all '! You didn't lose a brother, and you've been sitting in this school all high and mighty like being the Grandson or whatever the two of you are calling it of one of the most well known wizards. Now you have MY prefect's badge and from what I hear, you're also Quidditch Captain. No Harry your summer was downright awful, do you feel any guilt at all from Sirius' death! Had we not went to the Ministry he'd be alive, and there stands the chance of Percy being alive as well. I saw your relatives died as well in a raid, do you even care! No, you are high and mightly famed and esteemed Harry Potter, wait let me fix that, Harry Too-many-middle-names-for-a-normal-person Potter-Dumbledore!" By the end of Ron's rant, Harry just stood there, pale as anything before he turned and rushed out of the hall.

Hermione went to go after him, but by this time McGonagall was bringing in the first years, and there was nothing she could do about Harry at the moment. She looked up at the staff table at Albus, who was watching Harry leave. Albus had seen and heard what transpired between Ron and Harry, and he was afraid to see what condition he'd find Harry in when he went to his rooms. He had a strong feeling that Harry had went straight to his own room in his quarters and that he wasn't in any mood to be around anyone. Sighing, Dumbledore watched the sorting, gave the few start of term notices that included the new quidditch captains, told Professor McGonagall that he may need her help with Harry later, and willed the feast to be over with.

During the time the feast was taking place Harry had rushed into his room. He was in shock, how could Ron ever say that. Didn't he understand that it wasn't easy being Harry Potter? And why did he throw the fact that he was now Dumbledore's, well he was basically Albus' grandson, in his face? Ron had what Harry had always wanted, a family. Now that Harry finally had one and was beginning to finally come to face what happened with Sirius, Ron just goes and says Harry doesn't understand and enjoys the fame. Harry's mind was in overdrive and he knew only one thing would clear it enough, he laid on his bed and mumbled the spell he relied on many a time, a few times before he was at a point were he could think. At that moment, he heard the door to his guardian's office open, so he had to make quick with cleaning up. A quick disinfecting charm, that he found in one of the books in his room, and a pull down of his sleeves made him presentable.

"Harry," Albus said softly. "Do you want to talk about it?" Harry just nodded, he couldn't keep all of this in at once, he was afraid of what he might do to himself if he did. Albus sat down on the bed beside him and said, "Okay, I saw what happened and heard the majority of it. Would you tell me what bothered you the most?"

" The fact that he thinks I enjoy being famous, and that I feel no guilt over Sirius, the Dursley's and his brother. He acts as though I've never lost someone like that. At least he's never seen their actual death. I saw Cedric's and Sirius's. Then there are also the deaths I've seen time after time in the visions from dear old Voldie. I've seen so much of it and, and I just want it all to stop. I never asked for any of this to happen. Before I'd give anything to what he has, a family. Now that I have you, I wouldn't trade that feeling I get when I'm around you for the world. The same goes for Minerva as well. " At this point Harry was in tears, and Albus pulled him into a hug. When he did this, he noticed Harry was holding his one sleeve down so it wouldn't move. Albus would have to talk to him about that after this was over.

" Then, he acted like it was thanks to the adoption that I got both badges and I hadn't earned them. I don't know what to do Albus, and I don't know if I want to be in the dorm rooms with him. If this is what he does the first night back, what will he do next? Can I just stay here, at least for now Albus. Please? I don't want to be alone in the tower."

" Of course Harry, if you give me a moment, I'll firecall Minerva to go and retrieve your things from the dorms." Harry nodded and Albus slipped out of the room and into his office to make that call.

a/n : Okay, I know I made Ron into a complete jerk and all, but it was the best way to make everything that I want to happen fit in.. it just worked out so nicely... i had some problems deciding how awful i wanted ron to be, so i took it to a pretty high extreme.. if you hate it.. sorry.. but for now (at least.. i havent got the whole thing planned yet) he's going to be that jerk. please, leave your reviews on this.

Wulfric : I need that pitchfork of mine.

Tobias : Going to kill the gelfs?

Wulfric : Nah, going to wait for her 23rd chapter.

Tobias : What and not write your 11th?

Wulfric : Too tired at the moment.. I'll do that after lunch tomorrow.. I have a freaking practice I need to get too.

Tobias : You do know this was a really mean chapter right ?

Wulfric : Yes I know, but it goes with how the fic is moving and I don't care what you think Tobias, just shut up.
