Vernon was seething mad for all the extra people in his home, far too much freakishness. It had started when around noon there was a knock at the door, and a bushy haired brunette girl was standing on the porch with her parents. "Hello, we're Mr. and Mrs. Granger, Hermione's parents, you must be Harry's uncle."

The girl had stepped past him to go find Harry who was in the kitchen with Petunia making a bunch of food. So he was left with the girl freak's parents. "So…" Vernon grumbled.

"Oh right, you're probably confused why we don't look like all the other witches and wizards that you've probably met," Mr. Granger chuckled.

"We're muggles, dentists actually," Mrs. Granger finished.

That was actually reassuring for Vernon for some normalcy but it was short lived as they just wanted to see that there was in fact going to some adult supervision, that their teenage daughter wanted to spend the weekend with a good friend of hers, who was a boy. They had some concerns. And when they left Vernon just knew things would get worse as soon as the redheads showed up.

His house was now full of them. Freaks everywhere, it was a nightmare.

"These hotdogs are great," Ron said while picking up another from his plate.

Sirius and Tonks had expanded the living room to accommodate all the extra kids. "Not sure the telly will be big enough for everyone to watch properly?" Sirius scratched his head because even if they all sat around it for the movies they would be pretty limited.

"Oh we can get a projector," Hermione recommended a solution that would allow the movies to be easier to watch. "I'm sure if we go to an electronics store we can rent one for the weekend."

Shrugging Sirius and Hermione went off to acquire the equipment, because he wouldn't know what to look for, that allowed Tonks to be there to let Professor Snape in for Harry's potion. "Thanks Snape," Harry said after downing the liquid. "You wanna stick around for a movie, Hermione and Sirius are getting a projector."

Snape just stared flatly before Harry leaned in, "We're going to put on a horror film, really scare the pants off the Weasleys. Should have been here when we watched Alien, Sirius nearly wet himself during the chestburster scene."

Severus slowly cracked a smile. "I think I might be in the mood to watch one movie."

"Cool, there's plenty of food if you want to grab yourself a plate," Harry pointed to the table that held burgers, hotdogs and various assortment of drinks.

Once Sirius and Hermione returned with the project and a screen to play it on, everyone started to settle in for the movie when a loud banging on the door interrupted them. "I'll get it," Tonks said as she went over to the door.

Harry heard Tonks grumble, which to him meant that the auror was here and they weren't someone his girlfriend thought of as a friend. The group saw a red robed, angry looking woman enter the room followed by Tonks. "Everyone this is Auror Bitchface."

"That's Senior Auror Franklin, Nymphadora," the woman scowled at the former officer. "Why isn't he shackled?" pointing her wand at Harry, while ignoring that others around the room had drawn theirs.

"The sun's not down yet," Sirius smirked as he came over holding the ministerial decree. "Regulations don't take effect until after he changes."

Franklin looked around the room. "What are you still doing here, you gave him his potion didn't you?"

Severus was mid-bite of his burger when he set down his plate. "The study of the effect of lycanthropy is not one the ministry has given public approval of, therefore there is always the chance that something goes wrong, I feel as a Potions Master it would be remiss of me to not ensure that my potion works to the full effect."

The auror growled because she knew she couldn't kick out Professor Snape, he had a legitimate reason to be there and he could overrule her on much due to having to be the one to brew the potion. But as she saw the sea of upset teenagers she flicked her wand. "The kids will have to go, no civilians allowed, that means you as well Nymphadora."

Surprisingly it was Petunia who stepped up. "I don't recall your ministry being given authority over who I do and do not let into my home. This is just about Harry being a werewolf, nothing in that has any say in the people allowed to stay."

Auror Franklin was getting frustrated because if she wanted to contest this she'd have to go back to the Ministry and get Madam Bones to review the situation because it would take another sitting of the Wizengamot to get this law adjusted to give her more power and it wasn't as guaranteed as when Lucius Malfoy got the first change after Potter's rampage over Christmas.

She went over to watch as the movie began, more muggle stuff that irritated the auror, it didn't help that it was the most disturbing imagery she'd ever seen. A mad scientist trying to cheat death and everything becoming so violent and gory.

Harry chuckled as Ron screamed when the cold open kill of a man's eyes exploding out of his head really set the tone for the rest of the film. Even if it had been a blood filled horror movie, everyone had a good time. "Sun's going down," Harry sighed as he felt the change start to happen.

Just as the pain started to hit, he felt Tonks rest her hand on his back. "Don't worry Harry, we're here for you."

That comfort alone made the process less painful. It was so astonishing just how much hearing that someone cared about him had on his transformation. Finishing he was left staring down at everyone before the auror slapped him in an incarcerous. Falling over with a thud, Harry snarled from the attack just to see others in the room get upset over his treatment.

"Orders are that he's locked up," Franklin shouted, starting to flick her wand before her aim was blocked.

Sirius got in her way before she could hit his godson with another spell. "No, he just has to be restrained," he looked behind himself to see that Tonks was checking Harry over for any discomfort from the bindings. "And to me it doesn't seem that he's going anywhere."

The auror really wanted to start taking people in but it wasn't as simple as that, for one there were too many so her only course of action would be to leave and get more aurors, unfortunately it being so late they would have to call in off duty officers, which would require Madam Bones' approval of which she doubted her boss would sign off on without coming down here herself to discuss the situation with Sirius Black. She huffed before stomping away to a corner and in her mind waited for the beast to ruin their lives.

Once that victory had been earned, everyone returned to focusing on the screen. Harry was lazily watching the film when he felt pressure on his torso. Looking at what was causing it, he blinked in confusion as Tonks rested against him like a giant cushion. He barked curiously at her actions. "What?" Tonks shrugged before reaching behind Harry's ears to give them a scratch. "You're actually super comfy, plus it's not weird for a girlfriend to use her boyfriend as a furniture."

Harry found that getting his ear scratched felt pretty good so he simply laid his head down to let Tonks use her magical fingers.

"How can anyone be afraid of this," Ginny giggled as Harry's tongue lolled out of his mouth. "He's just a giant puppy."

"My giant puppy," Tonks cooed as she started to rub Harry's belly. She leaned over and kissed Harry's face, wiggling to find the sweet spot against his warm, hairy chest, Tonks flicked her wand to start up the next film.

Having gotten a chance to scare the pants off the purebloods who had never seen a movie before they decided to go with something that was more recent. After a few hours of films the kids started to settle into sleeping bags when Tonks got a sly grin. "I'm going to take Harry upstairs. Can't have him changing back in front of these young eyes."

"I can't let him leave my sight," Franklin growled as she got up from her spot. She stomped after Nymphadora who was pulling the werewolf behind her up the stairs.

Sirius was sniggering to himself because it was less than a minute later when Auror Franklin came back down the stairs. "What about not letting him leave your sight?"

"That, that… she's going to fuck that beast up there," Franklin huffed. "She's a shameless who-"

Sirius whipped out his wand. "Best be careful about how you talk about my cousin. She's not even off duty anymore due to the minister, can't claim any defense for talking that way about a civilian, and the Blacks have started feuds for smaller transgressions."

The auror was really hating this job. At every turn she was hitting obstacles. "Uh oh," Sirius' eyes widened as certain noises started to reach his ears, if he didn't do something quick everyone else in the living room was going to hear . "Can't have the kids hearing that all night. Thought she learned from the first time."

It didn't take much for those who could hear to conclude why Tonks had taken Harry out of the room. "Honestly," Dudley sighed as he looked back to the telly, having gotten used to his cousin and his girlfriend disappearing upstairs. "Those two go at it every chance they get."


Tonks threw her head back as she rode on top of Harry's thick cock. "Oh yeah, fuck me just like that," she cried out, rocking her hips back and forth to grind against his knot. She had a sheen of sweat coating her body as the werewolf held her steady. Tonks pressed down to feel the bulge enter her wet pussy and she screamed out loud from all his cum flooding her body.

Pulling herself off of him to free the fluids she got busy running her tongue along his shaft to keep him hard. "Come on puppy, give your bitch everything you got," Tonks smirked as she slapped Harry's cock against her cheek a few times. "How about we spice it up, you probably wanted to shag a movie star or two? I know I did."

Harry watched Tonks' features change until he was looking down at the lead actress from the Batman movie that released a couple of years ago. Seeing her licking his shaft up and down, she hummed as she wrapped her hands around the throbbing appendage. "I think this Catwoman is more of a doggystyle kind of girl."

She really had to hold the headboards to keep herself from being fucked into the matress as Harry pounded into her. Biting her lip as stars exploded in her eyes, she felt her body go numb as the big werewolf came inside her again. Flopping onto the sheets soaked in a mixture of their shared event, Tonks cuddled up next to the warm, if slightly sticky, werewolf who wrapped his paws around her. Leaning her head forward she planted a soft kiss on the tip of his snout before letting out a tired yawn.

Harry looked down at Tonks who was nestled against his body. The soft rising and falling of her chest as she drifted off. Gently stroking her hair, Harry thought about how fucked up his life was and how much worse it was likely to get in the immediate future. Now that he'd been drained of excess thoughts, he was left to the ones he had pushed out of his mind.

War was on the horizon, a war brought back from the dead just like the man who wants to start it. And he was terrified.


Those thoughts had kept him up so he was back in the kitchen once his transformation had worn off cooking up breakfast for the many people still in the home. "I wanted to ask you something?" Harry spoke up after making sure the auror knew he had changed back.

Only receiving a grunt in response. "Why did you become an auror? I've asked Tonks and she told me it was her dream of doing what she could to protect others, fighting bullies and making sure everyone was treated fairly. And I'm old enough to know that not everyone has those same ideals, but… why do you do your job? Just the money or was there something else?"

"Why does it matter to you?" Auror Franklin questioned what purpose the werewolf had in asking her these things. Famous wizard or not she despised what he was.

Turning around he set a cup of coffee and a plate of eggs, bacon and pancakes in front of her. "Because things are going to change. I wish they weren't, but they are. So when things start to get dark I wonder if you're the type of person to shine a light or get swallowed up."

Auror Franklin looked from the food to the almost uncaring features on Potter's face, it was as if he simply had nothing better to do or think about than wait for her answer and whatever she said it mattered very little, he just wanted one. "I became an auror when I saw all the horrors that monster delivered to the world," stabbing the pancake with a fork. "And it wasn't just him either. Creatures took any chance they could to hurt and kill just for fun, that's why you can't be trusted, eventually you'll give into your instincts and it would be better for everyone to put you down now."

Harry nodded his head before turning back to the stove. "That might be true, I won't disagree there. I know that without that potion, none of my friends would be safe to be around me. And maybe one day, I'll slip up and forget my potion, and God willing the people I care about won't be anywhere near me when that happens."

With the auror finishing her breakfast before leaving that left Harry alone in the kitchen until he heard footsteps approaching. "Morning Ginny," Harry said without turning around.

"How'd you know it was me? Right, smell and hearing," the redhead answered her own question before sitting down at the counter. "That looks delicious."

Smiling at the compliment, he piled her plate up with food. "Better get your food now, Ron's likely to wake up once he smells it and devour it all."

Giggling at that joke, Ginny took a bite. "Harry, how do you manage to do all this?"

Humming in response, Harry glanced over his shoulder.

Taking a breath to collect herself, Ginny looked at her breakfast. "It just seems impossible doesn't it. Everything seems to coalesce around you and yet somehow you're unshakeable."

"Really? Sometimes I think I'm just barely holding it together, it's why I'm so glad to have the people I do. I'd never have gotten anywhere without them," Harry chuckled to himself. "Last year alone, I… I wasn't in a good place, the tournament and dealing with everyone in the castle. I honestly expected everyone to turn against me for what I became."

"Harry, you know we'd never abandon you," Hermione chimed in as she had woken up to the smell of food, shuffling over to the coffee pot for her own cup.

There was a yawn entering the room followed by the body that made it. "Yeah mate, who else is going to be there to save your hide if not us," Ron added to the conversation. He snagged a sausage link from his sister's plate and ignored her protest. "Every good group's got three people."

Hearing that he had all this support put a smile on his face, so he was able to put aside everything else wrong in his life as the people who stood by him came down for some breakfast, and Uncle Vernon was there too.


"So I'm finally going to see what this super secret club is all about now?" Harry snarked while standing in the living room waiting for Mad-Eye to return with the all clear that he could be moved now that the full moon period had ended the previous night.

"Yup, we'll have to be careful though, Dumbledore wasn't able to get a portkey because they are regulated, and the nearest floo is also the one most likely to have someone see what we are doing, so we're going to be flying there," Sirius responded to Harry's comment.

"Wait what? Why?" Dudley questioned that course of action for its reasoning. "Just do that teleport thing."

"Apparating," Sirius corrected his godson's cousin that it wasn't just a teleport.

"Whatever," Dudley said dismissively. "You say you want to make sure he's safe in case Voldemort was going to attack him but, you want to fly him through the air on what I'm assuming are brooms. Which provides no protection and fighting off attackers would be far more difficult wouldn't it?"

Dudley had turned to Harry since he knew his cousin flew one for sport. Harry thought about it for a second. "Yeah, it would be kind of difficult to fight properly and not risk falling off."

"So why aren't you just apparating, I've seen you guys do multiple people before," Dudley again asked why they were complicating things.

Sirius took a breath before sighing, he just grabbed Harry's arm and the two were pulled into themselves and disappeared. Harry was a little woozy as he got his bearings in the park he suddenly found himself in. "Oh wow, that's unpleasant," Harry gasped out because he'd never traveled like that before.

"It gets easier the more you do it," Sirius apologized for the sudden side-along. "And this is the secret for the Fidelius, it will let you get into headquarters plus."

Harry listened to what his godfather told him and like magic, because it was, the buildings shifted and spread out revealing another that didn't exist there before. "Wicked," Harry said with a smile at seeing that unfold in front of him.

"It's a fidelius, only the secret keeper can tell someone it so they can find it. It's what we used to protect your parents, except this time, I'm not letting anyone else convince me I shouldn't be the secret keeper," Sirius proudly explained to his godson as they walked up the path.

Entering the home, Sirius quickly called out. "And watch out for the umbrella stand it gets… oh."

Harry had easily sidestepped the enchanted receptacle that intended to trip people who entered the home. "It's gotta be a bit more nimble than that Sirius."

The door to the kitchen opened and Tonks came out along with Mad-eye and another lady he hadn't yet met. "Harry, how did you get here? The Order was still planning the route to take for tonight," Tonks said in confusion as Harry stood in the middle of the room taking in the decor of the home his godfather had grown up in.

"What can I say, sometimes it takes a muggle to remind us we have magic," Harry smirked as he could hear the patter of feet above him.

"Dudley reminded me that I can apparate and you can't be tracked that way," Sirius scratched the back of his head. Because now that he thought about it, they wasted a lot of unnecessary time trying to figure out the logistics of moving Harry under the cover of darkness when the solution was right there in front of him.

"Well then," Tonks paused before getting a smirk on her face. "That gives me some time to show you around."

She sauntered up to his side. "I have some especially interesting things in my room, if you wanted to see them?"

The feeling of her tongue on his ear made him shiver. "What are we waiting for?"

"Ah ah," Sirius quickly intervened before the two randy lovers could run off. "Put in some face time with everyone before you two disappear in the sheets. We are doing quite a lot to prepare to fight You-Know-Who so it would be appreciated if you didn't take it as a challenge to screw each other in every room of the house."

Harry opened his mouth to comment that wasn't his intention before but it was now, when he just shrugged and knew that it didn't need to be said. "Fair enough, where's everyone right now?"

"Molly is in the kitchen, those who still work at the ministry are there trying to either gather information or on duty with the pr-" Tonks started to say before she let out a yelp and leapt into Harry, rubbing her thigh.

Harry glared harshly at the man who hadn't actually been his professor last year. "Probably not a good idea to do that again," Sirius chuckled out a warning to Alastor as he saw that Harry palmed his wand. "But Nymmie, we aren't talking about that right now, leave it to the headmaster to explain it."

Nymphadora grumbled out a fine before taking Harry by the hand and leading him on the nickel tour of the home. "And this is the portrait of Great Aunt Walburga," Tonks whispered so as to not wake up the painting.

Harry nodded his head before seeing Tonks stumble and bump the portrait waking the woman residing in it up and she began screeching loudly. "Worthless whore, traitor's daughter, Kreacher, Kreacher, remove this filth at once," Walburga shouted as Tonks started to push Harry out as Sirius came in to yell back at the painting.

Tonks just sighed and continued on the tour as Harry looked back. She showed him the bedrooms for every one including the one that she had claimed for herself. "Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to test how sturdy the frame is," Tonks huskily said into his ear. "Won't someone volunteer."

He was in the process of placing Tonks down on the mattress when Molly started to shout up the stairs that dinner was ready to serve. Trying to figure out if he had time to ravish his girlfriend before someone was sent up to get him, he ultimately decided that he'd rather not have Mrs. Weasley banging on the door while he was banging in Tonks' womb.


Sitting down at the table Harry looked over to see that this Order of the Phoenix was larger than he thought. It wasn't just the weasleys and the headmaster. Many of the professors and the other three champions from the tournament were in attendance.

"What you thought that after we got told You-Know-Who is back that we'd just let you deal with him on your own?" Cedric chuckled because it was plain to him that Harry was being kept very in the dark on how this organization was being structured.

"I dunno, I just figured like the last couple of years it'd be Hermione, Ron and me scrambling to stop whatever insanity was happening," Harry shrugged because that had been the norm for his first three years. "But hey, maybe it'll be better than our own planning."

"Our plans weren't that bad," Hermione protested that they hadn't been well thought out.

"Hermione, we went after Professor Quirrel to stop him from stealing the philosopher's stone and," Harry paused to motion to Professor Snape. "I'm sorry for thinking it was you by the way. Then when you got petrified by the basilisk, that left me and Ron to go see Aragog before getting that moron Lockhart who was going to kill us and run away. I got bit by the damn thing, Fawkes saved my sorry hide from the poison."

"Actually it just seems like you and me shouldn't be planning anything mate," Ron chuckled because at least Hermione had figured out most everything when they made a plan, didn't always work out but it was more than what they had without her.

"I'd like to revisit some of these adventures," Sirius interjected because this was the first he heard of a basilisk.

"That might be beneficial," Severus nodded his head, in agreement. Even as a faculty member he only heard so much when the source of the information was second hand retellings of what children said. "You've thwarted the Dark Lord a number of times in the castle, there may be information you did not know about that could be used against him."

"If you think so," Harry shrugged before talking about what he knew with Hermione and Ron commenting but it had astonished him just how much he could remember of these events and where he made his mistakes now that he was older.

It had taken up the entirety of the dinner time then they moved to the parlor as Harry continued to explain up until the point they all knew, his last year. "And wow, I was such a bloody idiot," Harry lamented as Tonks pulled him into a hug.

"No you aren't, if anyone's an idiot it's all them," pointing accusingly at the faculty who didn't much care for the comment. "I mean no offense but come on Minerva. A bunch of first year students figured all this out and when he came to you, you didn't listen to the kids who knew way more than they should about this so-called secret?"

McGonagall bowed her head shamefully because Nymphadora was right, she had dismissed Harry too quickly when it wouldn't have hurt to take him seriously. "Have I been that neglectful?" asking the other students under her care.

There were some murmurings before Severus sighed and decided he should speak up about something that had bothered him during his time at Hogwarts and it was a trend that seemed to have continued. "Many of my students don't feel that they can come to you about their problems because you are both deputy headmistress and head of Gryffindor, they worry you will be too biased due to the house rivalries so they either confide in me and I will admit, that I may deduct points too heavily so those students can feel like they have someone who takes their complaints seriously."

"Or in the case of many, we will take matters into our own hands, regardless of who may or may not end up hurt," Severus looked toward Sirius who slowly nodded.

Things in the castle during their time had been tense with Voldemort openly fighting the ministry and families choosing sides in the castle, it wasn't a fun situation for anyone. So Sirius understood that might have been a reason for much of his pranks being more cruel than needed which only served to exacerbate the problems rather than lift spirits. That it might end up that way again meant students might escalate things out of control. "I can see that being a problem."

"So what would you have me do, step down from my positions?" Minerva questioned what the solution to that would be.

"Maybe just be deputy headmistress," Cedric suggested and saw that some of the others agreed. "I mean, we're going to be dealing with all this and you want to run a house, help the headmaster in the school, here, and teach all at the same time."

Hermione had been thinking about that while the others discussed who could possibly take over. "Professor Vector or Babbling might be suitable for the role," giving who she thought would be good replacements.

"We can discuss this with them at a later date," Albus said because it held merit that he took some of the work off of Minerva's plate while more pressing matters were in the air. He wouldn't want to lose her as his second in command though, but overseeing a house was just wasting some of her value.

"I do believe that it is quite late and we have our duties to attend to, Kingsley," nodding to the man who would be taking up the shift at the Department of Mysteries tonight.

"Come along children, time for bed," Molly started to usher the kids out of the room and up the stairs. "Ron, did you make sure to clear off the second bed for Harry?"

Tonks got a gleam in her eyes as she looked at Harry and tugged his hand. "Harry will be staying in my room with me, Molly."

The mother looked confused for a second before gasping. "Nymphadora, what will the children think?"

"Uh that we've known Harry was shagging her rotten for weeks?" George chuckled before Fred pushed him on the arm.

"Yeah, he certainly had her howling on movie night before Sirius put up a silencing charm," Fred snickered.

Molly looked aghast that everyone seemed to know that Harry and Nymphadora had been coupling. "But they… but… but… It's improper."

"Well that's only because the law says I can't marry Tonks for a couple more years," Harry shrugged because he'd buy the ring and be down on one knee this very moment if he could.

"You want to marry me?" Tonks gasped because she knew Harry was into her, but was he really at the bonding for life stage yet. She figured that he just liked the mind blowing sex with a hot older woman.

"Tonks," Harry paused before his lips pulled back into a smile. "I cannot imagine my life without you anymore. You are in my dreams, I can't think of a better way to wake up every morning than to see your gorgeous face."

His eyes started to glisten as he stared at her shocked face. "Last year you, you showed me so much love and affection without even asking for anything in return. Tonks, I want to marry you with all my heart. It's the only thing I want now. I just hope beyond all reason that you'll say yes. I love you so much."

Nymphadora could feel her cheeks heating up at the confession. She was kind of being put on the spot but this was possibly the best place, surrounded by friends where a young man she loved very much expressed to her that she was the woman of his dreams. "Oh Harry, of course I'll say yes," she bit her lip before a round of applause circled around the room.

Harry looked around at the people who heard all of that before blushing from embarrassment. "We uh," Harry gulped because he hadn't really intended to say all that but just speaking from the heart to her, it all had to come out.

"What he means to say is, please don't disturb us tonight," Tonks said as she pulled Harry along with her so she could rip all of her fiance's clothes off his body and fuck him until he saw heaven.

Sirius smirked at Molly who just witnessed in her opinion one of the most beautiful things she had ever seen. "And you thought that was improper. Hell, a girl would be lucky to have a guy who loves her half as much as my godson does."

"Honestly a little unfair how high he's been setting the bar lately," Ron hummed because he might have been jealous of Harry for everything that he's got now but it's not come without its own major downsides so he could see that Harry was just holding onto what small victories came his way.

"Then you gentlemen simply need to step up," Fleur giggled because if Harry had been single, she would have gladly snatched him up and she could tell that to be true of the other unattached women in the order. "A strong, confident, sensitive, heroic wizard with just the right amount of troublemaking bad boy splashed in. He's everything my maman had warned me about. I had been hoping she was right."

The group had about three more seconds before a loud creaking could be heard. Sirius let out a groan and flicked his wand at the ceiling to stop the noise, "SILENCING CHARMS, SERIOUSLY!"

He just shook his head in disbelief that they could be that forgetful just because they were so lovesick with each other. "We're pranking them in the morning," Sirius pointed at the twins because this had gone on long enough, he needed to make sure they remembered to do it themselves, it was common courtesy after all.
