Chapter 3

Life in SUB-TARDIS COLOUR (Coldplay reference SORRY!)

This is a mega long chapter sorry it took sooooooooo long but I hope you like it

It was the 21 of February at 11:15, Harry was standing by the telephone box at town Hall and nothing was happening. Harry began looking round impatiently, people were swirling around him going about their daily business, not paying any attention to the scruffy boy with glasses. At 11:16 the door of the telephone box opened

"Are you coming in or what?"

The man that was talking was wearing a tight suit and had a rather distinctive welsh accent, it took Harry a moment or two for him to realize the man was speaking to him.

"Um…is this to…John Smiths Academy?" he felt a bit like an idiot saying it

The man gave him a sympathetic smile

"Yes, you must be Harry, don't worry everything's quite safe inside, c'mon" the man then disappeared back into the telephone box

Harry slowly followed him…was this a weird sort of trap, was he going to be one of those kids that had their pictures on milk boxes? Cautiously he stepped inside

"Oh my god…" Harry whispered

"It's bigger on the inside…" he finally managed to say

The man in the tight suit smiled again

"They all say that…I'm Ianto Jones by the way" he held out his hand

But Harry was too busy looking at the ceiling dozens of feet above him, a strange pale glow was coming from the centre of this…very odd telephone box

"Am I…dead" had he hit himself in the head accidently?

"They say that a lot too" replied Ianto who walked towards the strange glow

"Harry, this is a SUB—TARDIS, it can travel short distances of space and time, but right now it's just going to be picking up a few people" explained Ianto who then proceeded to press various buttons in the centre of the SUB—TARDIS thing. Suddenly the entire space lurched into the air throwing Harry to the other side of the room, landing painfully on his arm he cautiously got up

"What just happened exactly?" But Ianto didn't answer he was too busy with the controls

"Now the two people that we're picking up here are magical but have no ET's them"

Harry was about to ask what ET stood for but at that very moment the doors opened with a blinding white light

"Oh my god! It's bigger on the inside!"

"Really Ron, it's a SUB—TARDIS what did you expect it to look like!"

"Well it's been a while…I feel like a right muggle in all, dads set up this surveillance thing at the top of our street to spy on all the muggles, can you believe it! Mum says his finally lost his nut"

The two people entered the SUB—TARDIS one a boy the other a girl, both stopped talking abruptly when they noticed Harry

"Um…He…llo? he said in a weak attempt to break the ice

Neither of the two people replied, both of them seemed rather interested in his forehead, cautiously Harry wiped the top of his face, was there something there, had he accidently managed to get cereal or something incredibly embarrassing up there

"No, no" the girl said as she saw him doing this

"It's your scar…it's like…

"Oh, I got that in a car crash when I was a child" He quickly explained

For some reason the girls face fell as if what he had said had hurt her in some way, he recognized her expression in an instant, disappointment.

"Harry" called Ianto

"This is Hermione and Ron—"but before he could finish the girl called Hermione interrupted

"Harry…you don't mean to say that this is Harry Potter!" Her face was a slight pink and her eyes full of excitement

"How did you know my name?"

Hermione was silent for a moment as if her mind was slowly working everything out, like some sort of giant mathematical equation

"Harry I don't really know how to break this to you but…the entire Milky Way knows of your existence"

To say Harry was surprised would be an understatement; somehow he managed to croak out

"How?"

Hermione's excitement seemed to be deflated by this question and her words became slow and carful, but Harry didn't care, finally the truth from someone

"Well, it's your parents…your father—"

Harry could control the excitement bubbling from his chest, his father, his family, were known by the entire Milky Way, what great things had they done too be known in such a way?

"—was …oh god! Ron could you please explain this for me?"

The red head, who didn't look all that bright, answered in a slow voice

"Well…your father"

Ron said cautiously, as if the word was poisonous

"Killed a few…very important people and tried to take over the Milky Way"

The truth, Harry discovered wasn't all it was cracked up to be.

"Next stop, Malfoy Mansion" Ianto said in a particularly cold voice

Ron, Hermione and Harry all turned to the doors, that opened suddenly, this time not to a bright white outside but to a dimly lit room, a tall pale boy with angelic white hair entered, his blue eyes scanned the room, looking straight past Hermione and Ron his gaze fell on Harry

"Harry" he whispered and began walking towards him

"It's been so long…"

Harry had no idea what was going on

"Umm…no offence but who are you?"

The boy laughed

"I'm afraid neither of us would have a descent memory of it, we were barley one…our fathers used to be friends, I'm Draco Malfoy"

Ron and Herminie looked uncomfortable as Draco was talking; Harry didn't understand why they looked so disgusted as Harry talked back in a conversational manner, but it didn't last long as Draco realizes the looks on Herminie and Ron's face

"Well best be off" gesturing towards the rest of the empty ship and sits down on the opposite side of where they were sitting.

Herminie began explaining after he had gone

"He still supports your father, believes his innocent or something stupid like that"

Harry wasn't quite sure how to react; he didn't quite know what to make of his father good, bad, it didn't really matter to him, it was a connection, something he had never had with the Dursleys. He asked the vital question

"Is he still alive?

Herminie and Ron looked at each other for a moment

"Sort of…We need to show you for you to understand"

"Next stops Galifrey" called Ianto

Okay, hope you liked it, sorry for all the mistakes I was feeling very lazy, and I need advice: should I make this a Harry/Draco romance? I mean I won't make it interrupt the plot but I thought it would be sweet which might be your idea of horrible, so in the name of the Chameleon Circuit tell me what to do, the sooner you tell me the sooner the next chapter will be up.

Love anyone that's reading this even if you hated it
