Wulfric : Ah, revolt's off for the moment.
Tobias : Posted her chapter eh?
Wulfric : Yes, now I need to ..
Tobias : This is Wulfric's idea because she is a twisted individual. She 'borrowed' JK's first five years and everything in them.
After seeing the face Dumbledore was wearing, Harry shifted on his bed to make room for him to sit. Albus sat on the bed and faced Harry, who was looking anywhere but at him.
"Harry."
"Y-yes sir?"
"I'm not very pleased with you at all at the moment. Can you guess as to why that is?" Albus asked.
Taking a deep breath, Harry said, " Because of the pranks I played on Professor Snape, and for how I acted towards him this morning in class."
" Yes, those are two reasons, but not the only reasons. Professor Flitwick told me that you skipped class as well. Also Minerva told me an interesting story about some magic that you never said anything about."
Harry looked up shocked, " She saw me do that? Oh Merlin."
"Harry, I'm just annoyed about the magic for the simple reason that you didn't say anything about it, and I could have helped you with it. As for the other things, I am slightly angry about them. Why did you skip class Harry? And on the first day at that."
Harry hesitated a moment before answering, " Well, first of all I value my life more, and didn't want to be in the same room as a seething Hermione and an angry Ron. Secondly I didn't want to be around people, yet I didn't really want to be alone, so I did something else instead."
"And where, pray tell, did you go instead of Charms?" Albus asked his charge, who seemed to be becoming more sheepish by the minute.
"I wasn't far. I just went and sat in a corner in Minerva's class. I watched her fourth years transfigure turtles."
" I take it you were under your cloak and Minerva had no clue you were there."
"Yes."
Deciding to move on to the next question Albus said, " Harry. Why did you act the way you did this morning in Severus's class ?"
"Because he is a git," Harry spat out.
"Harry, how many times do I have to tell you, I don't care if you hate him or not. You must show him the respect he deserves, even if the only reason is because he is a teacher. Now, you are to return to his class on Wednesday -- "
"But Albus, nothing is ever going to change how he is with me. I ignore all he does, he gets worse. I fight back, he's just as bad. Nobody can win with him, well let's rephrase that, I can't win with him because James Potter is my father."
"Harry, you do realize that I must punish you for this correct?" After seeing a headnod from Harry he continued, " But I'm not exactly sure what to do with you yet. I am a bit angry about this. Your behavior was childish, and I would have expected better of you. I have told you countless times about treating Professor Snape with respect, but it must not have sunk in enough yet. For now, go to bed. I'll talk to you in the morning. I need to think on this." With that Albus swept out of the room leaving an ashamed Harry behind.
After Albus left and headed to his own bed, Harry remained awake. At about four that morning, an hour before Albus usually awoke, Harry got up and out of bed. First he went to his trunk and retrieved his badges, looking at both of them longingly, he pocketed them and headed into the office. Once there, he took his badges and laid them both on the desk. " I don't deserve them, " he thought. "Especially the prefect one."
Harry quietly left the office and headed towards where he knew Minerva's rooms to be. He knew she was one of the few that arouse at four each morning, and it was almost four thirty now.
Albus got up earlier than usual, and when he first left his room, he had the feeling he was alone. Shaking that feeling off, he checked in on Harry only to find his bed made, and him not in sight. Heading into his office, he saw Harry's badges laying on his desk. Picking them up, he left his office wondering where he could have gotten to at this hour. Sighing he thought, " Maybe I was too stern with him last night. He does deserve to be punished, at least for his behavior towards Severus, but maybe not for all of it, and not too harshly."
Harry placed a light knock on Minerva's door, he didn't know if she was up for sure or anything. He didn't have to wait long to find out for in the next moment the door opened and he was ushered inside.
"Your guardian doesn't know you are up and out of bed this early does he?"
" No ma'am. He doesn't. I just didn't want to face him this morning."
" And why would that be Harry?" she asked gently.
"I disappointed him yesterday. I didn't know it hurt that much to have someone disappointed in you. I acted like a first year, rather than the sixth year I am. I called Professor Snape both a 'greasy git' and a 'bloody overgrown bat' and then preceded to plan out a prank on him. Which I later then carried out. I never told him about the wandless magic you saw me doing, and then I skipped my charms class. I opted to sit in a corner of your classroom and watch the fourth years instead," said Harry in a sort of hollowed voice.
"You were in my classroom instead of your charms class?" Minerva asked.
"Yes ma'am. I turned my badges in to Albus this morning before I came here. I just laid them on the desk, because I don't deserve them. Someone like Ron does."
"Harry, what's going on with you? Your moods have been changing rapidly in the last twenty-four hours and you haven't eaten since lunch two days ago." Minerva said, her voice full of concern.
" I don't know Minerva. I just don't know what's wrong with me. I want to be Harry, just Harry, but the world won't let me. I'm the almighty hero, and now the grandson of Dumbledore. Mind you I love him and I wouldn't change the fact he's my guardian for nothing, I just wish people would get over the fact me and him are related now. And.." he just trailed off.
Minerva looked into his eyes, and saw what she feared. Emptiness. It appeared that Harry was slipping into a depressional state. Mix in the fact he hadn't been eating and that he self injured on occasion, and you had one problem filled teen.
"Harry, stay here in my rooms. I'll be right back."
"You're going to get Albus aren't you?" Harry asked her.
"I'm just going to tell him where you are and not to worry. I'd fire call him, but I have the feeling he's out of his office already."
