Change of Heart
Harry wandered happily through
Hogsmeade. He had only been back for a few hours and already his spirits were
soaring. Two weeks, only two in the hell commonly known as the Dursleys house.
He hadn’t been sure about it when Dumbledore mentioned it but he had promised
Begin Flashback
Harry sat at Gryffindor table long
after the feast had ended. He didn’t care that his friends were all back in the
common room having an end of the year party, or even that he hadn’t eaten and
the food was all away. He was so engrossed in his thoughts and his quickly
growing depression that he didn’t notice Dumbledore’s approach despite his blue
and orange robes.
“ Thinking
like that can lead to many unpleasant things Harry. Unless,
of course, you can share it with someone who might be able to help.”
“ I don’t
want to go back,” Harry stared down at his hands, “ I know I have to for at
least a little while but I can’t stay there. At least with Sirius out there I
had hope but it’s fading professor. It’s fading fast
and slips through my fingers like water.”
“ Let’s
make a deal, Harry,” began Dumbledore wisely,” You fight to keep that hope. You
must stay at least fourteen days with the Dursleys, then
you will be able to leave. I will find a suitable place for you to stay for the
rest of the summer. Someone will be by to retrieve you fourteen days from
tomorrow.”
“ Thank
you Professor Dumbledore,” grinned Harry.
“ Now, Harry, I believe you have a party to go to,”
Dumbledore’s eyes twinkled mischievously,” Please tell George and Fred I would
like to see them, I have a few purchases that I would like to make.”
End Flashback
Harry grinned
thinking about the Dursley’s reaction to Fred, George, and Charlie Weasley
appearing on their doorstep, wands drawn and ready to fight their way to him if
necessary. The three boys, understanding mothers in a way that only they could,
gave Petunia Dursley a letter in Dumbledore’s handwriting.
Dear Petunia,
I
am happy to inform you that the use of you home is no longer required. Harry’s
godfather Sirius, as I’m sure he failed to mention, was killed while defending
several students. He has, with his death, left several homes for Harry to
choose from , and enough money to take care of several
generations. As such, Harry will be under the care of his second Godfather Mr.
Remus Lupin. Be assured that proper precautions have been taken for dealing
with Remus’ condition. Harry will stay with the Weasley’s during the full moon.
Thank you again for your help.
Albus
Dumbledore
Harry was surprised when Petunia
invited the three red haired wizards to have tea and cakes while she helped him
pack. Even more surprising was his experience packing with Petunia.
Begin flashback
Harry dutifully followed Petunia up
the stairs and into his room. When she shut the door he began to worry,
thoughts of calling his friends jumping in his head.
“ Harry,”
she said sitting on his bed, “ I know that we haven’t always treated you the
best, but remember I love you. You’re all I have left of Lily.”
Harry started to say something but
she interrupted him.
“ She’s my
sister Harry. And though I was so jealous of her, I always loved her. If you
ever need anything, you know where to find me,” she said giving him a hug.
Harry was so stunned that he barely
thought to hug her back as she sobbed into his shoulder
Together, they packed all of his
things into his school trunk. He flushed with embarrassment as he pried open
the Floor to take out the photo album Hagrid had given him in first year.
Remembering what his Aunt had said, he held it out to her.
“ I know
that you don’t like magic but you can look at it. One of the Professors, that
was a friend of my parents, gave it to me back in first year,” He said softly, “ go ahead open it.”
He watched the wonder on her face
as she saw the pictures move and smile,” They’re so real.”
“ I know,”
he hesitated a moment, “ W… would you like one?”
He watched as she turned to the
newer pictures of him with Hermione and Ron, “ Vernon would never let me keep
them.”
“ Don’t
let him see them then,” offered Harry.
End Flashback
Harry was
pulled from his thoughts by a strange sound coming from the alley next to
Quality Quidditch Supplies. What he saw astounded him.
Draco
Malfoy clutched his hand to his chest and tried to fight the pain of the curse
his father put on him. He could barely force the air into his lungs as all of
his muscles cramped. His lip was already bloody and several bruises were
rapidly forming. His father was angry, angry enough to kill him if no one
intervenes. He doubted that anyone would show up.
He felt
more than heard his father release him from the curse. He closed his eyes as
dragon hide boots began slamming into him. Desperately he pulled his knees up
and tried to protect his stomach. With each blow consciousness slipped further
and further away until all that was left was a graying tunnel in which his
father stood.
Harry didn’t think about what he was
doing, he just hit Luscious Malfoy with the hardest hitting non lethal spell he
knew. The elder Malfoy, caught off guard, hit the ground without even drawing
his wand. Harry made sure that he was truly stunned before going to Draco.
“ Draco,
you’ve gotta get up,” said Harry kneeling next to the blond, “ I know it hurts
but we have to get away.”
Draco struggled to get to his feet
and finally managed to do it with Harry’s help. Harry, thinking a moment,
pulled his invisibility cloak out of his bag and draped it over the two of
them.
“ Don’t
worry, I don’t live too far away.”
Draco was barely conscious by the
time they reached Fred and George’s joke shop and he was surprised to find it
closed.
“ Cotton
Candy Bubble Gum,” he whispered to get inside. Once inside, he carried Malfoy
up and placed him in his bed before grabbing parchment and his quill.
“ Hedwig,
I need you to go as fast as you can. Take them to Dumbledore and Madam
Pomfrey,” Opening the window he let her go before moving on to tend Draco.
With a cloth and warm water he began gently
removing the blood from his face. Try as he might, the other boy’s platinum
hair would need much more to remove the blood. After nearly twenty minutes, he
heard the distinct pop of people aperating into the apartment.
“ We’re in
here,” he called loudly.
He wasn’t surprised when Madam
Pomfrey hurried into the room and brushed him out of the way. A moment later he
heard three more pops and Dumbledore walked in followed by Remus and Tonks.
“ I didn’t
know who else to call,” Whispered Harry staring at the bloody cloth in his
hands.
“ You did
fine Harry,” responded Remus.
“ What
happened Harry?” asked Dumbledore.
“ I was
out walking and I heard a strange sound so I went to investigate,” Harry took a
deep breath,” Draco was on the ground and his father was kicking him. I didn’t
think I just reacted. He’s stunned in the ally next to Quality Quidditch
Supplies. I helped Draco walk here and sent Hedwig to you.”
“ How is
he Poppy?” asked Dumbledore.
“ His
father was smiling and telling him how he was going to kill him.” Harry,
despite all that he had seen and done in the last five years of school had
begun to shake.
“ You did
the right thing Harry,” said Tonks before giving Dumbledore a look.
“ Poppy,
if you would please.”
She turned and looked at Harry,”
Yes, of course,” she reached into her bag and found a blue potion,” Drink up
Harry.”
Harry obediently drank the potion.
As he handed her the vial he began to feel as though he was floating in water.
Next thing he knew, he was in his Godfathers arms and moving towards the bed.
“ What was
that?” asked Harry.
“ Don’t
worry, Harry.” Said Remus softly,” It’s just something to help you relax. I’ve
never seen you react like this to anything except dementors.”
“ Just d..
don’t let them hurt me again,” murmured Harry suddenly
too tired to stay awake.
“ I’m
sorry Albus, I had to, His pain is very great.” Sighed
Pomfrey.
