They decided to celebrate the adoption with ice cream. They floo'd into Diagon Alley's apothecary and headed over to Fortescue's, where Harry ordered a large mint chocolate chip sundae to share with Draco. While waiting, they tried to ignore all the incredulous stares, it was not every day you saw Harry Potter with two dark wizards and a werewolf, and they wondered who Pansy is. The group ignored the rude people and once they had their ice cream, they headed for one of the larger tables inside.
Pansy had been informed of the upcoming wedding and was eagerly looking forward to making Harry look his best. She had insisted that the two boys were not allowed to see the other's robes. Harry and Draco knew they were not going to win the argument, so they simply agreed to the term. Pansy and Draco were going to be picking an entirely new wardrobe for Harry today, also. Needless to say Harry was apprehensive. He hatedbuying clothes. He was so uncomfortable during robe fittings, but now he would be subject to hours of this torture, while Severus and Remus get to watch Harry be uncomfortable.
Draco had assured Harry they would only be getting him a robes in Diagon Alley and likely shoes and accessories later, but the bulk of their shopping trip would be in muggle London. Harry wasn't happy about this but didn't argue as Draco dragged him from shop to shop.
They bought robes first. The witch that was fitting him kept staring at Harry and was nervous, after all it was the Harry Potter. Severus and Remus laughed at him while Draco spent the next half hour glaring at the seamstress, he had been forced to stand outside while Pansy gave the order for Harry's wedding robes. Draco came back in and told her what all they wanted and that it should be sent to Hogwarts. They left and continued shopping.
An hour after they left the robe shop Harry was in possession of a pair of gym shoes, black and white converse, two pairs of dress shoes, and various accessories varying from ties to jewelry. They had alternated shopping for Harry and buying things for the wedding, so Harry didn't get too overwhelmed.
They stopped in at Hogwarts to drop off what they had, then portkeyed to a secluded park in a town near muggle London. When they landed, Harry froze. Draco noticed this and inquired as to what was wrong. Harry turned and looked Draco in the eye. "I know where we are…" He whispered. Draco was really worried now; there was a haunted look in Harry's eyes.
Draco whirled on Severus. "Where are we and why is it affecting Harry like this?"
Severus had the decency to be ashamed. "Little Whinging, Surrey. In a park near Harry's relative's house." Harry had started to shake, so Severus continued. "It was the only place we could portkey legally without alerting everyone. If I had known it would affect him like this we would have gone back through Diagon Al—" Severus cut off abruptly. There were scenes flashing through the bond the three shared with Harry. They didn't use the bond much but it was still there when needed. The images were jumbled, mixed with an extreme amount of fear towards a fat man with a mustache and an even more obese child that could only be the fat mans son.
When the images stopped, Harry's pack was furious, to say the least. There was no question in any of their minds about who the people were. Draco, Severus and Remus exchanged looks. "Harry," Draco said softly but intensely "we will be taking a slight detour."
Harry gulped, but nodded. They were all furious so there was no way to stop them. Pansy was confused, but didn't say anything. She transfigured all their clothes for them, into muggle clothes, and said she would keep watch. The others nodded and they stormed up the street.
Reaching the Dursley's house, they masked their features and Draco stood next to Harry. Harry was hiding behind Severus, wanting to be anywhere but there. Severus knocked on the door and they could hear the thundering footsteps approach from within the house. The door swung open and there was Vernon Dursley demanding to know what they wanted. They were not able to get very much information about the Dursley's out of Harry, but they were able to piece together that Vernon worked in muggle construction, so Severus used that. Severus turned on his Slytherin qualities and lied through his teeth. "Mr. Dursley? We are from an organization that specialized in construction equipment and have stumbled across your flourishing company. We would like to make you an offer. May we come in?"
Vernon's entire demeanor changed. He smiled at them and led them into the sitting room, not noticing Harry, who was still hiding behind his new father. When Vernon noticed they were not sitting he inquired as to why, he was startled when they all started glaring at him, Remus even growled.
"Vernon Dursley, abusive uncle of Harry Potter." Snape stated with a malicious tone. Vernon heard his nephews name and started turning red in anger. "You know the freak? You must be freaks, just like him! Get out of my house before I call the police!" Vernon shouted.
"Oh please, do shut up." Remus growled in a harsh, condescending tone, drawing his wand. Vernon glared at the wand but did stop shouting. "Now, we know Harry was abused but he refuses to tell us anything about it. I have a spell here that will make you feel a condensed version of Harry's pain. Afterwards we will remove any memory of our names and faces from your mind. The only thing we will leave is the pain you have caused my son."
Harry, with his mind reeling from Remus calling him his son, stepped out from behind Severus and over to Remus. Despite being scared out of his mind, Harry put on his brave face. He put his hand on the werewolf's arm and the man visibly calmed, not enough to drop his wand, but he was no longer growling. He turned his head to look at Harry. Though hidden well, Remus could see the fear and anxiety the boy felt. "Remus, you don't have to do this. We can leave and never contact them again. I don't want you to get in trouble and be sent to Azkaban." Harry said softly, worry evident in his tone.
"I know you are worried about us, Harry." Remus said gently. He finally dropped his wand and pulled the boy into a tight hug; it was Severus' turn to hold Vernon at wand point. "However, I know that even if we leave now, I will return another time to punish these vile muggles. Severus and I know what we are doing, pup." Then trying to lighten the mood, "and besides we both know Severus would spend the next week squirming as though there were, as the muggles say 'Ants in his Pants'?"
Harry laughed, knowing full well that Severus was a bit (a lot) twitchy when trying to refrain from acting. The smile dropped from his face as he responded. "Fine. It is not like I could truly stop you, but may I wait outside with Draco? I don't think I can watch." Remus gave his approval and released Harry.
"Then off you go, because I believe Severus is about to explode." And Harry turned to walk back to Draco.
A/N: This scene will continue but I believe you would want a chapter, as I have not posted in (what my sister tells me) a month. I apologize, I have end of the year tests in about a month and I am trying to get caught up since I did not have a first semester of anything. I will try to write more often. Next chapter should me up in a week or less!
