Snape was smiling on the inside. Potter was more like Lily than he thought. He had a lot of courage to give that interview. As he administered the Verserium to Harry a dark thought crossed his mind. If the story was true, then Dumbledore knew that Harry was being abused and did nothing to stop it. Snape gave a silent prayer that it was true so he could do something about that.
“What is your full name?” Snape asked Harry.
“Harrison James Potter” Harry replied.
When were you born?”
“July 31, 1980”
Did your aunt and uncle abuse you when you lived with them?”
“Yes.
“Details please?”
“They would beat me if I did any accidental magic. Starved me, locked me in my cupboard for days on end. I had to cook, clean, pretty much do anything they asked of me. If I didn’t I was punished. The summer after my first year they moved me to my cousins second bedroom and put several locks on the door, a cat flap they could push food through, and bars on the window. Every year they locked up my school supplies.”
“Bars of your window?”
“Yup, when the twins and Ron came to get me they pulled them off with the flying car.”
Snape turned to the twins, “is this true?”
“Yeah, when we said something about it we were told that it was for his safety. Didn’t believe it though.” George said.
Snape turned back to Harry.
“Do you own half of Hogwarts?”
“Yes, maybe more if the research being done pans out.”
“What research?”
“I’d heard a story that the founders were married to each other. Ravenclaw married Gryffindor and Hufflepuff married Slytherin or something like that. Lord Malfoy is having it considered.”
“Why?”
“Well, if it turns out to be true, that would mean that I might be considered for inheriting the other two vaults since I would be considered their last living heir as well.”
When Dumbledore heard this, he started to see red. He was furious! He was master of the school, not this boy!
“Do you honestly think that he didn’t take the antidote before coming here?” Dumbledore asked.
“Did you Potter?” Snape asked, he had a sinking feeling that Dumbledore was trying to discredit the boy.
“No, why would I sabotage myself like that?” Harry asked.
“For everyone’s sake, I would like to do a revealing charm. It will show all potions in your system currently.” Snape suggested.
“Go ahead, I have nothing to hide.” Harry said.
Snape waved his wand and a few seconds a piece of parchment popped into his hand.
“Potions currently in Mister Potters system are nutrient potions, a very strong healing potion, Verserium, and there is a trace of a sleep draught.”
Snape turned to Dumbledore.
“Clearly, he has no antidote in his system, but he does have the potions someone would need if they were recovering from years of abuse.”
Snape glared at Dumbledore.
“You knew what those people were doing to him and did nothing. You had the whole world believing that he was pampered and well looked after. Why would you do such a thing to a child? You were supposed to protect him! You promised me you would then you told me that he needed to fear me so I wouldn’t blow my cover as a spy. Albus, what else have you been hiding?”
“He’s been stealing from my Potter family vault and the Founders vaults for years.” Harry said.
All eyes turned to him.
“What?” Molly couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
“How do you think he’s been funding his side of the War? No offense Molly, but your family and everyone else is just cannon fodder and I am the piggy bank.”
Ron had heard enough. With a wild push of his magic he broke through the twins’ spells keeping him contained.
“You are a liar Potter! You are nothing but an attention hogging brat who, when the attention isn’t what he wants, makes up stories to make him look better than he is!”
“I don’t even like having all this attention on me. I would rather live the life you have over what I’m living now.”
“Yeah right! Who wouldn’t want to be rich and famous?”
“Me. I’d give it all away for what you have. A family, your parents, a home where you feel safe and wanted. Would you really wish that all away for fame and fortune.?”
“Yes. I would give anything to have the spotlight on me! To have people see me and not just Harry Potters’ friend or the youngest Weasley boy! You have no idea what it feels like to be invisible!”
You could hear a pin drop with how silent the room was. Arthur was comforting Molly as she cried. The twins were glaring daggers at their little brother. Everyone else was just stunned that Ron would wish such a horrible thing on his family.
“You’d wish us all dead? How selfish could you be?” Ginny asked the silent room.
“Really Ron? That’s so sad.” Hermione added.
“Ronald Weasley, since you are so desperate to not be a part of this family you would wish such ills on us, then don’t be. I, Arthur Wesley, head of the Weasley household disown you. I strip you of all lands and titles you would have inherited and banish you from the Weasley homestead. You are not to contact any of the family first and are locked out of the family vaults.”
There was a flash of light. Next thing everyone knew, Ron was being tossed out of Grimauld Place. Magic had dragged him from the home since his family was living there. As he stood on the stoop he heard a pop. Next to him landed a trunk that held everything he owned in it. All he could see was red. Where was he supposed to go? This was all Harrys’ fault. If had just done what he was supposed to do none of this would have happened. Ron grabbed his trunk and hailed down the Knight Bus. He would go to the Ministry and ask for help there. They should do something. Before he could step on the bus he felt a hand on his shoulder.
“Mister Wesley, you can stay at the school for now. At least until you get your feet under you.” Dumbledore said with a smile. He could use this to his advantage.
