"But it's all Potter's fault!" Ron raged, "He's so weak! Letting Muggles do that to him! I'm just trying to toughen him up! He's supposed to be out hero and look at him he's deformed!"
Harry looked away. They were all in the Entrance Hall along with most of the school. Ron was being dragged off by people from St. Mungos because he had flat out said he was going to keep hurting Harry. His mother was crying and dotting at her eyes with a hankie and following after him.
"It isn't his fault, Ronald Weasley!" Hermione raged , " He was just a small kid. You couldn't have done any better in his situation! None of us could!"
"She's wonderful . "Theo gushed then blushed when she looked at him. "Uh... wanna go to the library and work on Charms?"
"I'd love to." she beamed, "Did you do your Transfiguration's essay?"
"I'm midway through."
The two of them walked off talking.
"Wow, a Gryffindor and Slytherin." Draco said, "That's just not done."
"I was a Slytherin. " Severus said sternly to his Slytherin's not caring that everyone was listening. "and I was friends with Mr. Potter's mother back in school. She was a Gryffindor! Don't you dare let that stupid house revelry keep you from making friends or talking to someone you like! You have to at least try and don't get down when prejudices get in the way. Mr. Potter, come with me!"
Harry quickly followed Severus back to the man's quarters.
"Would you like some tea?"
"No thank you , Professor , I don't much care for tea."
"Your father didn't either if I remember correctly. " Severus muttered not knowing that the child had heard him. "Here drink this it's a Muggle drink. I don't know if you've ever had Soda before. "
"I wasn't allowed." Minerva and the other teachers came in and all flinched at that. " The soda was for Dudley my cousin. " he sipped out of the can and hummed. "That's really good. " he glanced at the other adults. " Oh, hello. Am I interrupting. "
"No. No. " A man smiled at Harry. "I'm the Minister of Magic, Harry."
"Hello, sir it is a pleasure to meet you."
"and you." he nodded. " I am here because we need to find you a suitable guardian ."
Harry cocked his head to the side.
"Do you understand what that means, Harry?" Minerva asked kindly. "We all want to help you find a proper home. Is there any one you would like to stay with?"
Harry pointed to Severus who sneered the Minister frowned.
"I accept." Severus agreed, " In fact I've already moved things along. When Harry's abuse came to light I contacted his aunt who was out of the country she should be arriving with someone shortly."
Petunia hissed and brushed herself off. Mrs. Figg in front of her seemed fine.
"Severus , please you know I hate germs!"
Severus rolled his eyes and pointed his wand he cast several cleaning charms.
"Thank you," she came further into the room. Her eyes landed on Harry. "You needed me to sign something?"
"Adoption papers. " Severus pulled them out. " I will take over Harry's care."
"very well, where do I sign?"
"Here. " Severus pointed, "Here , " He flipped the page, "Here, here, "another page. 10 pages later Severus seemed happy, "Now I need a few drops of blood just prick you finger and I'll heal it." She did, then signed her name one last time. "Thank you, Tuney that'll be all. Now you no longer need to worry about anyone ever finding about Harry being a wizard where your from."
"Oh, thank god." Patunia scoffed. " I'd like to go back now before my husband gets home from work."
"Aunt Petunia?"
"What is it?"
"Uncle is cheating on you with his accountant. "
"His accountant is a man."
Harry stared at her. She backed away gasping.
"He's also the reason Jimmy Jackman moved away and is in a mental hospital."
"That child was 6."
"And Peter Arson, John Jamison, Andrew Ryan, Chris Allmight, " Harry listed a few other names within the cal de sac they lived in . "Oh, and he also sexually abuses your own son. Have a nice day , Aunt Petunia. "
Patunia went sobbing back into the fire with Figg.
Harry lay on the couch getting a full check up.
Leland had been a bit put off by Severus demanding it. He had explained that he couldn't heal Harry magically before because Harry would have gotten in trouble for using magic and he would have been discovered and his aunt and uncle wouldn't have let him come back.
Severus had stated he needed medical records to back up his claim of abuse and Leland had excepted that.
After two more days Harry got his arm back. He was eating in the Great Hall with his friends when Hermione came up.
"Feeling better, Potter?"
"Yes, thank you, Granger."
"That's great." she smiled, "Are you ready for class, Theo?"
"Yes, lets go, Hermione," He stood up and grabbed his bag. "See you guys in class."
He waved over his shoulder at his friends and the two of them began walking out of the hall.
To those who are wondering :
yes, Hermione and Theo are going to be together for this story.
I don't know how or why that happened but as I was making corrections and stuff to the last chapter I noticed i made Theo say "I think I'm in love."
well at the time it was meant as a joke but then I was like
"Yeah, that's cool. Hardly anyone does that . I should totally do it."
So that's how that got put in there and yes Dumbledore will be mentioned in the next chapter and what happens to him.
As for Ron for now I have removed him to St. Mungos mental ward.
If you haven't read my profile I will tell you that Ron and Ginny are my most hated Weasley's. I also sometimes hate on Hermione but for the hell of it I wanted her in the story to some point.
So I hope you like this.
Please, Read and Review.
