New And Improved Harry Potter

Chapter 139: Hunting Harry



Dumbledore's POV

Things had not been going well for Albus Dumbledore. He was on the run from the Ministry, which wasn't a big deal to him, but it did limit his movability. None of his colleagues, would talk to him as long as he was a fugitive. Though, those in the freshly recalled Order of the Phoenix still did as he bid, bar Sirius Black, who he had not been in contact with, and Remus Lupin, who stated he no longer wished to be a part of the Order.

Alastor also declined for reasons of his own, but Albus could hardly blame the man. The rest were all keeping an eye out for Harry. They were to send a Patronus as soon as they spotted him so that he could speak to the lad. He made sure everyone in the Order knew how, it was just too vital not to. Just as he was pondering what to do next, Minerva's Patronus came to tell him that the boy had left Hogwarts.

This was not good. The child would be in grave danger if he were out and about. She said that he had only left a few moments ago, so he Disapparated to Hogsmeade to see if he could spot the poor boy. He was glamored to look like a much younger man, with no beard and sandy hair.

He was wandering the town when he spotted a much younger and lighter looking Black. He picked him out from the goatee the young-looking man sported and the air of self-importance the man exuded, just like he had when he attended Hogwarts. He quickly made his way over, "Sirius, my boy, I must speak to you," he said, eyeing the young man with him. This could be Harry under his own magical disguise.

"Shite," the younger of the two said, giving himself away. His alarms were blaring red alert and he knew from his map the youngish looking man was Dumbledore. He debated on whether or not to just poof out or listen to what the old man had to say. He knew he could leave the second a wand was raised, so he kept close to Sirius and stayed at the ready.

"Ah, Harry, just the lad I wanted to talk to," Albus stated, his eyes twinkling like mad. "Please, just listen, I promise not to do anything but talk," he said sincerely.

"You have five minutes," Harry said, looking at his wind-up watch.

"I wanted to tell you that Voldemort had made it so that he could return. It is imperative that you know that he is not gone," the old man said, looking over his spectacles.

"I already know all this. I got rid of a part of him that was in my head," the boy answered with a look of condescension.

"Did you now? Well that does change things up a bit, but you should know that there is more than one," Albus said with a bit of awe. He wondered how the child did such a thing, but knew he would not be told, since the boy loathed him. That and he was on a time limit. He'd get the information when he once again got the boy to see that he, Albus Dumbledore, was a righteous man.

"It changes nothing for me, other than the fact that I can live my life without that thing in my head," Harry disagreed.

"Whatever did you do with… it?" Dumbledore questioned, hoping that he had killed the vile aberration.

"What else would I do with it, but give it to the police? It's their job to handle things like this," a confused young man asked.

"Oh, Harry, I am not sure you realize what you have done. You see, there is a prophecy…" the old man started only to stop when both Sirius and Harry started laughing at him.

"I know the prophecy. I just got back from the Ministry, where I listened to it with Bones," Harry confessed. "All I have to say is, what a load of bunk."

"If you know the prophecy then you know…" he once again was interrupted, but this time by Sirius.

"That it is in the hands of the DMLE, and nothing to do with Harry," the dogman stated firmly. He wasn't going to let Dumbledore try and guilt trip Harry into doing anything that he didn't need to do.

"Look, your five minutes are up," Harry said as he touched his godfather and they both disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

"What just happened?" asked a bewildered Albus to himself.
