Authors Note: Guys thanks for the reviews. The story is going to get a little murky and there will be more blood. This chapter is just begining. Hope you enjoy and review. Please review.

Last time: As Hagrid was protesting Harry was handcuffed and was flooed away from Hogwarts.

As the roaring of flames subsided Harry saw what could only be described as a cellar. As he stepped out of fire place he herd a distant sound of metal striking the floor and knew what was coming. In a few minutes he was face to face with auror Alastor Mad-eye moody. Harry knew mad-eye was one who would go to any extremes to see the guilty punished. His notion was simple "guilty until proven innocent".

Mad-eye said in his grumpy voice "leave the kid to me. Get the boat ready."

As the two aurors left he said turning to Harry "last year you captured the dark lord. And from what I know what you were accused of is not impossible for you. So I will give you benefit of doubt if you answer my questions under vetraserum."

Harry replied "I will answer one and one question only."

Mad-eye smiled and said "Fair enough" and opened a vial containing clear liquid but before he could go further Harry said I will need a oath that you will ask one question and it is related to attacks. Moody nodded and pointed the wand at his throat and said "I Alastor Moody swear on my magic and life that I will ask only one question to Harry James potter under the vetraserum I will be administering now. So mote it be" and put three drops into Harry's mouth. He then asked "are you in any way responsible for attacks on students at Hogwarts institute of Witchcraft and wizardry?"

Harry simply replied "No." and smirked at the shocked expression of Moody. Moody then said "Fine kid. I said one question and will hold the end of my deal. But can you tell why Dumbledore is so adamant on sending you to Azkaban then?"

Harry smirked and said "How much do you know about Dumbledore's controlling nature?"

Moody said "I know that he wants to be in control but this is far too much measure to take. He must have something else."

Harry smiled and said "You will know soon enough."

Aurors returned and said "Sir the ferry is ready. Do you want us to come along?"

Moody replied "No need. Did Dumbledore give you his reasons for getting this kid arrested at such short notice?"

Dawlish replied "No sir. Dumbledore said he would show the evidence at the trail."

Moody looked annoyed and said "and you arrested him based on accusations? Fine now run along and try collecting evidence."

Dawlish again said "but sir he is well known for fighting thirty ruthless killers' in one go and coming out without a scratch."

Moody growled "Morons he fought against them. The key word is AGAINST. Even a child will know that he is cooperating with us. Now get lost before I send you to St. Mungos"

As Harry was being taken on ferry to island of Azkaban he thought 'Good. Its time I take control of Azkaban and get it ready for the purpose it was truly built. These morons have converted the best stronghold into a prison. If I can gain the alliance of Dementor's it will be an added advantage. I need to work fast if don't want to make mum angry by not going for Christmas." At the thought of his angry mother he shuddered.

As they were moving towards the island Harry felt the nightmare ward and sorrow ward going stronger along with protection wards. He understood why it was the best Stronghold. There were so many wards at so many levels that if you take out one ward another activates and alerts. All the wards had to be taken down at same time. Then again there was fog and mist obscuring the vision and the Dementor's. There was no way any one can break in and get out unscathed. Harry decided that once he assumes control he will add his own wards.

As Harry set foot on the Island all the Dementor's felt a rise in power of the wards and knew that the heir and their leader has come. The Dementor's leader has rejoiced as he knew that Lord Shadow has come to finally meet them after they felt his birth twelve years ago.

Harry was escorted to highest security area where Dementor's were patrolling left right and center. He was checked for possessions and when they found none he was put in the cell and wards to suppress magic were activated. Moody left along with other human guard's and Harry sat and went into meditative trance. Dementor's didn't bother him knowing he was their lord and will talk to them once he finished what he was doing.

Hogwarts:

Once second years realized their friend was missing, they immediately went to their head's of the house and asked what happened? When they were told that Harry was sent to Azkaban chaos ensured in whole school. Not only 1st and 2nd years but even higher year students were shocked and horrified. Now that Harry was gone they were sure that no one will be able to solve the mystery. So when Praveen called for a meeting of study group people even from higher years attended.

Praveen stood on stage and started "Friends, today we gather here not to study, not to practice but dwell upon the situation the honorable headmaster brought upon us. It is common knowledge that very few are capable of solving the mystery of chamber of secrets and catch the person behind the petrifications and Harry was one of them and only one available inside Hogwarts. But Dumbledore sent him to Azkaban on false accusations and even when most of the staff vouched for him he didn't agree. We know for a fact that he was hindering Harry's investigation by restricting him. This is pure revenge for Harry complaining to board about the house cup and his interview in daily prophet. If we don't act we may lose one of our friends to the beast which is now roaming free."

As Praveen concluded his speech Susan Bones said "Harry Potter was not given a proper trial. He was directly sent to Azkaban. We will need to pressurize our parents to put their efforts together to give him a proper trial. We must not fall prey to manipulations of headmaster."

As Susan finished her speech everyone turned red in anger. Their friend was not given a trial. Draco Malfoy stood from his chair and said "My father is an important member in ministry, Wizangmot and board. I will make sure this news reaches prophet. Harry is also a friend of Alexander Rawthorn. If Alex finds out about this he will move whole of Brittan to get Harry a trial. I will write to him immediately.

Theodore Nott stood up and said "We will present a united front in school. We will not sit and move according to houses but according to years. Let them see that if not whole then at least three fourths of school is against them. Let them see that we are true friends of Harry. He was the one who taught us DADA since first year. Those morons Dumbledore brought were ass holes who didn't even know what defense meant."

Hannah stood up and said "He fought with his life to save those morons in Diagon ally and they repay with treason? Let them see what we can do. Let that manipulator see how we can manipulate our parents. Let them see that we have more influence on our parents than so called saviors."

Everyone started making up plans in groups. Most of the pure blood children had parents in ministry and decided to force their parents to hold the trial as soon as possible and give verdict in favor of Harry.

Others started making plans to prank potters and Dumbledore. They decided who ever speaks against Harry will go to hospital wing. Praveen thought 'let it begin. Dumbledore you have dug your own grave.'

Padma and Parvati were talking to Perene over the mirror and comforting her that Harry was doing it according to plan. They had no doubt in him. He was a master mind and none was smarter.

As Harry went into his meditative state he aligned himself with sentient magic of Azkaban. Azkaban said "Welcome young heir. I was constructed by ancients as a stronghold. Now that you have come I shall do your bidding. My wards are going strong with your return. With the amount of magic you have it will only take a few hours for my wards to reach maximum power. Deretron, king of Dementor's is also waiting to meet you."

Harry waited for a few more hours in his meditative state to fully power Azka's wards. Then he said "Azka open the gate. I will meet with Deretron now."

"As you wish my lord" was the reply he got before the gate was flung open and as Harry walked Dementor's bowed to him. The prisoners who were sane enough were shocked but only handfuls were sane. As Harry walked to Kings Chamber which was unknown to anyone he was guided by a dementor.

"This way my lord" it said and led the way and Harry followed. As Harry went into the chamber the king rose from his position. He was twice the size of any normal Dementor and was more agile and was reeking aura of power.

He said "It is an honor to meet you my lord."

Harry greeted back "Like was King Deretron."

Deretron said "My lord we have been in a problematic situation in recent times. The ministry sees us as filth. We have been confined here and are used to do wizard's biddings like slaves."

Harry sighed and said "I know and it will change. I will ensure that you are liberated and meet your true purpose. Gather your armies and be prepared. A war is upon us and I need every ally."

Deretron said "Surely my lord. How much time we may have?"

Harry said "A couple of years."

Deretron nodded and said "I will get it done."

Harry nodded and said "It is time for me to leave. Keep this as a token of our friendship and we can communicate through it." Saying so Harry created a ring out of thin air and gave it. Deretron nodded and took the ring. Harry called Emma and flamed to Flamel's residence.

As Harry entered the living room he saw Perene crying over the blood-stone. Emma has delivered the stone and his wands to his mother as he asked. He smiled and went and hugged her. Perene was shocked at sudden hug and turned with her wand pointing only to find her son smiling.

She hugged him to suffocation and said "You should have come home directly Harry. Why did you go to Azkaban? Wanted to have a picnic?" Though she was talking tears were flowing from her eyes and Harry held her face in his arms.

He said in a baby voice "Mum I can't let anyone take fall for me. Now I am home and will be staying for a long vacation. So stop crying, please."

Perene smiled and hugged her son before telling him to wash up as she prepares table for Dinner. She mirror called Nicholas who was busy at work, worried what Harry was up to. As Nicholas came home he too hugged his son and said "don't break this old mans heart son."

Harry felt really bad and explained his whole plan. Nicholas smiled and said "Surely you must be in politics. This will definitely gain you a large following."

The next day Harry received a letter from Draco Malfoy addressed to Alexander Rawthorn and Harry knew this was cue for Alex to act. He immediately sent message to his channel to make a program on how Harry Potter was arrested in school where he was to be protected and was not even given a trial. He also wrote letter to Rangnook to tell his proxy's in Wizangmot to put pressure to make the trial as soon as possible. He then wrote letters to most of pureblood lords asking for a meeting about this arrest and to keep the meeting a secret.

In a few days there was a huge movement in press both in news papers and news channels asking for immediate trial of Harry Potter.

Dumbledore sat in his office with Potters and Black. He was being tired of repeatedly rejecting meeting with minister giving the ruse that he was not well and the trial needs to wait. He was at his wits end at how to control the happening events. He remembered the evening Harry was arrested.

All the professors were seated in great hall for dinner. Except for Gryffindor table every other table was empty. In a few minutes the doors pushed open and all the students walked in but everyone was shocked that they were according to year and not according to house. Soon the first years occupied Slytherin table followed by second years. Third and fourth years occupied Ravenclaw table and Fifth, sixth and seventh years occupied Huffelpuff table.

Dumbledore rose up and said "Students you are requested to sit according to houses. You must remember that your house is like your family and family must sit together."

A fifth year Huffelpuff rose up and said "We are all a family and if you can't provide us a larger table this is what happens. You have got one of us arrested to satisfy your ego, to get your revenge. This will not go unnoticed. Give Harry a proper trial as soon as you can. He is only one who can solve the problem." As the puff sat down everyone banged the tables in unison and it sounded like giants were walking. This united front was also shown in other activities and all the three houses forfeited quiditch matches.

Luckily for Dumbledore vacation started and children left. He hoped that by the time they come back the children would forget it and move on. But then the press was making his life miserable. There were articles everyday and it became the only news.

Dumbledore could not understand why Alexander Rawthorn was taking this so seriously. He called a meeting with potters to discuss about their plans.

James spoke bringing Dumbledore out of his musings "Albus what do we do now? Press is having a field day and we have to give him a trial at some point right."

Dumbledore nodded and said "Harry is a strong child and it will take time for him to be broken. We need to prolong this as long as possible if we are to gain control over him. What I don't understand is why is Rawthorn heir taking this so seriously?"

It was Lilly who answered "It seems Albus Draco Malfoy is a good friend of Alex. He must have asked for help."

Dumbledore looked appalled. If Rawthorn was friends with Malfoy they were in grave danger. He asked "How did you come across this information Lilly?"

Lilly potter said "Malfoy once threatened Dan with Alexander Rawthorn's name. I thought he was bluffing but now it seems he was telling truth."

The school started and the students continued their protests. When few Gryffindor's tried to say that Harry was a dark wizard and it was better he was in Azkaban they found themselves waking up in hospital wing. That night at dinner, Rojer Davies stood up and said "Harry is no dark wizard. He saved the chosen ones in Diagon ally. So who ever call him such names will not go unpunished."

As this information sunk in peeves came in shouting "Headmaster another attack. Two students have been petrified near library." At this every teacher and few students started running towards library. Once they reached the library they found Hermione Granger and Penelope Clearwater, petrified with mirror in her hand.

Dumbledore was now grave as he knew that the protests will reach next level and the monster was now no more targeting muggleborns. He knew now the pureblood families will put more pressure and the trial needs to be brought to Wizangmot soon.

Praveen asked the professors who were horror struck "You said it was Harry and that you had proof it was him. He is locked up in Azkaban and attacks now have increased. He would have solved the mystery in few hours if he was given support."

At this all the professors agreed. Lilly was scared about her children and ran to great hall to make sure they were safe. The crowd dispersed and the petrified students were carried to hospital wing.

The next days Daily Prophet was filled with articles about Harry Potter and Dumbledore. The front page had Harry dueling in ally and Dumbledore's old picture of him dueling Grinderwald.

HARRY POTTER: INNOCENT or CULPRIT?

Dear readers you are well aware of the petrifications and attacks going on in Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry.Professor Albus Dumbledore accused young Harry Potter for the attacks saying that he has proof. Now that Mr. Potter is in high security cell in Azkaban we on behalf of public demand to know who is behind the latest attacks. It is widely known that Mr. Harry Potter has complained about the favoritism about house cup last year to board and got the justice he demanded. We at prophet believe that Dumbledore is seeking revenge on the boy for his insult and hence abusing his powers. It is to be noted that Dumbledore has wontedly postponed the trial of Mr. Potter saying that he was not well and hence asking for time.

When a reporter of ours asked Mr. Malfoy, senior member of board about the incidents he said "It is absolutely Dumbledore's fault. It is a known fact among Hogwarts faculty that young Mr. Potter had a way of solving mysteries and doing deductions. It has come to my notice that Dumbledore has restricted access to this boy and hence put lives of all the students in grave danger. Action will be taken against him."

Dear readers we would like to ask you a question. What is Albus Dumbledore up to? Is he truly a man above the feelings of jealousy and revenge? Is what being done in case of Young Harry potter right?

….

Many such articles were printed and many angry parents sent Howlers to Dumbledore. Madam Bones, Head of DMLE came to Hogwarts and met Dumbledore. The conversation which ensured left Dumbledore gaping like a fish.

Madam Bones said in a cold voice "Mr. Dumbledore, you are to attend the trial of Harry James Potter regarding the attacks on students in Hogwarts institute of witchcraft and wizardry on Saturday at 10.30 am. This has unanimously decided the members of Wizangmot."

As she left Dumbledore called Potters and Black. As they got seated in the office he said "The trial is on coming Saturday. He would be broken enough. Don't let him go to hospital and heal. Take him to manor. I will personally place sorrow and nightmare wards. That will ensure his will is further broken."

Potters nodded and left. The days till Saturday were very long and hard for Dumbledore. As the trial approached he planned how to present his case so that he will get out unscathed. On the day he wore his official chief warlock robes and went to ministry.

Harry shifted to his cell early on Saturday and replaced his doppelganger. He waited for guards to come and take him. Once they left the Island and reached the shore they apparated him to ministry and shackled him in the court room which was already full with wizards and witches.

Harry watched as Dumbledore walked in wearing his chief warlock robes and greeted everyone officially. He then turned to Harry and said "is the accused ready to testify under vetraserum?"

Harry replied "Yes. But I want it verified by professor Snape. I honestly don't trust you." Everyone was shocked but felt the young mans anger was justified. Harry took the vetraserum after Snape said it was safe.

Dumbledore asked "What is your name?"

Harry replied "People know me as Harry James Potter."

Dumbledore then asked "How old are you?"

Harry said "twelve years, five months and sixteen days."

Dumbledore then smiled and said "Are you a parsel mouth?"

Harry smiled and said "Yes."

This gave gasps in the court room and Dumbledore continued "Do you have a snake as a familiar?"

To this Malfoy objected by saying "It is irrelevant. Ask whether he is guilty and show your evidence Dumbledore" and when Minister Fudge approved of objection Harry smiled.

Dumbledore then asked "Were you present when the students were petrified?"

Harry said "No. I only went there after petrifications and finding that they were alive, started collecting evidence. You didn't listen to me and accused me."

At this there were murmurs in court and Dumbledore didn't like where this was going. So he asked "Are you in any way guilty of the attacks?"

Harry said "No."

At this all the hell broke loose and Dumbledore said "all in favor of Mr. Potter." Every hand rose in the Wizangmot. Dumbledore asked "those against the release of Mr. Potter" and no one even stirred. Dumbledore then said "Mr. Potter you are released."

Harry then said "It is not that easy. You said you had proof. I would like to see the proof. Also Madam Bones, I would like to push charges against Dumbledore and minister Fudge for arresting an innocent and withholding the trial for this long."

Dumbledore and Fudge paled at this and Fudge said "See here boy, it was for safety of school. The ministry will pay you a compensation of 50000 galleons. You can't bring up charges against Chief Warlock and minister of magic."

Harry smiled and replied "Minister, may be you should read the law. Wizarding law clearly dictates that any person when economically, magically or politically wronged or denied his rights can bring forth the case on accused ones in front of head of DMLE and it doesn't concern what position the accused hold."

At this Dumbledore paled further but said "But you will require the permission of your family."

Harry smirked and said "I don't have a family. I was disowned remember? You made sure of that."

At this there were gasps and people were horrified that a child of such talent was disowned and Dumbledore was behind it.

Amelia Bones said "Mr. Potter your compliant has been filed and I will personally ensure that it is brought before Wizangmot as soon as possible. Now I believe you must head for St. Mungos to nullify the ill effects of Dementor's. Ministry will be bearing the charges and you will also be paid a compensation Minister has previously announced."

Dumbledore immediately said "I believe it is best for Mr. Potter to head to potter Manor. We can have healers over there to treat him."

Harry hotly said "No. I either go to hospital or Hogwarts. If I have to go home then I have my own house. I will not set foot in Potter manor. Thank you."

Before anyone could say anything flames roared and McGonagall burst in. She straight ahead went to Harry and said "Harry, situation is going out of control. Five students have been taken into the chamber. Please come to Hogwarts at once."

As everyone heard this they gasped. Harry asked "who are they?"

McGonagall said "Your siblings, Longbottom children and Ginny Weasely."

Harry's face was expressionless. He said …

End note: What will Harry do? Will he help the School? Be ready for a major twist.
