'Thoughts'

\Harry and Voldemort mindlink\

New Looks, New Attitude

Harry stared at the order unimpressed. They had kidnapped him and brought him to their headquarters. He did give them one hell of a fight. The only good thing about being there was that Sirius, Remus, the Weasleys, and Hermione were there. Meanwhile the order members were staring at him. The rest were happy to see him.

"Are you going to speak or what?" He asked them.

"Huh?" Most looked at the Potter heir in confusion.

"I meant something more intelligent." Harry muttered.

"Mr. Potter, what happened to you?" His transfiguration professor asked.

"What'cha mean professor?" He asked her.

"You look...well different." She said.

"I do?" Harry gasped in mock surprise.

He knew that he changed. He was wearing a black t-shirt that had white letters that read; Fuck Off!. He was wearing black skinny jeans with a white belt. White boots with black laces adored his feet. His hair was in a low ponytail. Harry's bangs were swept off to the right, covering his eye from view. There were red and gold streaks throughout it. His bangs had a red tip while the rest had a gold tip. He was wearing black eyeliner.

A couple weeks into summer and he had gone to a tattoo and piercing parlor. Now his nose and lower lip had a silver hoop. His right eyebrow was decorated with a black bar brow ring. His hair hid it from view. His left ear had a white snake earring looping through it. His right ear had four silver hoops and two diamond studs. He had a black stud in his tongue.

The rest of his piercings were hidden by his clothes. Both his nipples had hoops. His belly button had a diamond stud. His last piercing was located on his penis. No one would see it unless you saw him naked.

The next change was the tattoos that now decorated his skin. Most were hidden by his clothes. The visible ones were on his arms. His left arm had a black snake with ruby red eyes. On his right forearm in red ink said the words submissive badass. On his wrist below that was a black lion with black wings and emerald green eyes. On his right shoulder was a skull with blue flames. Below his collarbone on the left side was another tat. It was done in black ink. It read cruel bastard. On his lower back was a pair of black bat-like wings with the word incubus underneath. Around his stomach were white and blue stars. On his left leg and onto his hip was a black snake with baby blue stripes and emerald green eyes. On his upper back near his neck was silver rose and vines trapping a stag and doe. The doe had a lily pattern on her hind leg. On his left ankle was a skull. Wrapping around the skull was a white snake. The snake's left eye was red and the other was green. The skull had a lightning bolt crack above the left eye socket.

The new look was an act of rebellion. It was his chance to choose how he looked. If he regretted it later then at least it was his own decision and not him being controlled. Molly and Arthur weren't happy with Harry's new look but they also knew they weren't his parents and knew why he did such a dramatic change. They supported him even though they wished he didn't get the piercings and tattoos.

"Yes. You look… well…" She struggled to find the word she wanted to use.

"Badass? Awesome? Dark?" Harry offered.

"Yes. Wait no. You look dark." Many snickered at that.

"See Siri I told you I looked badass and awesome." He smirked.

"You did." He said.

"I know." He said smugly.

"Mr. Potter!?" His teacher said sharply. "This is entirely inappropriate behavior and looks."

Harry looked at her coldly. "Are you my mother?"

"No."

"Are you my guardian?"

"No."

"Are we at school?"

"No."

"Then it really isn't any of your business. As of right now you are not my boss." He said.

"Excuse me?" She was shocked by how he was treating her.

"There's an excuse for you?" Harry gasped in mock shock causing some to snicker.

"Mr. Potter!" She glared at him.

He raised an eyebrow. "Yes?"

"That was rude." She said.

"And your point?" He asked her.

"Sirius? Remus?" She looked at them for help.

"Yes?"

"What?"

"Are you two going to say something?" She asked.

"No. I am an old professor who has no legal right to tell Harry what to do." Remus answered.

"Convicted godfather." Sirius said as he pointed to himself. "No legal right either." They failed to tell her that Harry had a point and as long as he was happy they didn't care.

"Haha!" Harry yelled in victory.

"Harry, could you behave?" Arthur asked him.

Harry calmed down and nodded. "Alright."

"Thank you."

"Just like that?" She asked, stunned.

Harry shrugged. "He asked me."

"Oh." She didn't say anything after that.

"So why am I here?" He looked at his godfathers. "Not that I am complaining or upset but the whole kidnapping wasn't necessary."

"We didn't k-" Tonks began to say only for Harry to interrupt her.

"Yes you did. I didn't come willingly, Tonks." He told her.

She looked at him in surprise. "You know who I am?"

"You know who I am." She didn't look impressed.

"Harry stop messing with her please." Sirius said with a huge grin.

"But it's so fun~" He sang.

"It is, is it?" She asked the tattooed boy with a raised eyebrow.

"Yup~"

"Brat." She pouted.

"I know."

Her pout deepened. "Anyway I thought you knew that we were coming to get you. Wondered why you were fighting us."

"No I didn't know. You three showed up on the rare occasion that my family wasn't home and with your wands out I thought you were a threat." He said.

"Dumbledore-"

"Said nothing." \Is a fucking ass.\

\I agree, Potter. This is a surprise.\ A familiar voice spoke to him.

\Voldemort?\ He asked in surprise.

\Potter.\

\I will talk to you later. I have to pay attention.\ He said.

\Alright.\ Voldemort was surprised but listened to their conversation.

"ea that we were coming?"

"Again nope." Harry told them.

"That does explain why you would see us as a threat and fight us." Tonks said she was not happy she had been lied to.

"No duh!"

"Harry." Molly warned.

"Sorry." 'Not really.'

"No you're not." Molly snorted in amusement.

"Not really." He agreed.

"Harry?" He turned back to Tonks. "I'm sorry for what happened. I was told by Dumbledore that you knew. He said that he told you that Mad-eye, Kingsley, and I were coming to get you."

Harry could see that she was sincere. "I forgive you."

"Thank you."

He nodded at her before looking at Molly once more. "Molly?"

"Yes dear?"

"Can I get something to eat? They kidnapped me before I could." He said.

"Of course dear." She smiled at him.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome."

"So no one answered my question." Harry said.

"What question?" Sirius asked.

"Why was I brought here?" He asked.

"For your safety." Kingsley told him.

Harry snorted at that. "My safety. Sure." If it was for his safety then he wouldn't be there in the first place and Voldemort would have gotten him already. Not to mention the dementor that had been in the area.

"What do you mean?" The auror asked the pierced teen.

"Seriously?" He looked at the adult in surprise. "Even Ron figured it out."

"HEY!" The fifteen year old redhead looked offended.

"Sorry Ron but it's true." He shot his friend a smile.

Ron pouted at his best friend. "Whatever."

"I don't understand." Kingsley admitted as he wondered what it was he wasn't told.

"Mione?" Harry asked in frustration and not at the auror as he figured out he wasn't given all the information. Typical Dumbledore.

"Sure." She smiled at Harry before she went back to scowling at the adults. "Harry hasn't been protected by the blood wards since Voldemort's resurrection." As soon as his name left her mouth many flinched causing the brunette to glare at them in disgust. "Oh for the love off-. Grow a pair already you wankers."

Now they stared at her in shock. "Miss Granger!" Her teacher gasped.

"Yes?" She gave the teacher a raised eyebrow.

"That was rude." She said, shocked with the frizzy haired teen's attitude.

"I don't care. Now since you all look confused by my previous statement I'll explain. To do the ritual Voldemort- Oh for Merlin's sake stop flinching. Voldemort needed the blood of the enemy. That means that Harry's blood is running through Voldemort's veins until Voldemort's own blood replenishes. Therefore he could get through the wards." She explained.

"What!?" Those who didn't already know shouted in shock.

"You heard me." She said.

"I did but no one told me that Mr. Potter's blood had been used in a ritual." Kingsley said as Moody and Tonks confirmed his statement.

"He did." She said.

"We should have gotten him sooner." Kingsley scowled.

"I agree. I'm having a word with Albus." Alaster said as he too scowled.

"Whatever." Harry said as Molly handed him a plate.

"Here you go dear."

"Thanks Molly."

"You're welcome dear."

Harry began eating as the other adults talked about the lack of information Dumbledore was giving them. Soon he and Snape had arrived. Harry ignored them both. Snape didn't care while Dumbledore was irritating but pretended not to notice. Alaster told him what happened then told him off much to Dumbledore's annoyance.

"What did you do to yourself?" He asked his pawn.

Harry continued to eat as he pretended not to notice the man. In Harry's mind it wasn't any of the headmaster's business what Harry did to himself or did over the summer. The man asked again as Harry finished eating.

"Nothing!" Harry said as he handed the plate to Molly. "Thank you. It was delicious. Thank you Molly."

"Thank you and you're welcome."

"You're welcome." He chuckled.

"Mr. Potter!"

"What?"

"This new look and attitude is not nothing." Dumbledore said.

"Not any of your business." He shot back.

"Excuse me?!" He stared at the teen in shock.

"There's an excuse for you? Color me surprised." That caused many to hide their laughter. "Anyway I'm going to bed. Sirius?"

"Follow me pup."

"Okay."
