Chapter 49: Clash at Privet Drive
"And once again Alastor I apologize for that but Barty Jr played his roll so well that I didn't notice this and..."
"Why didn't you ask the question?!" Moody demanded, he had given every person who knew him a question that they were supposed to ask him to prove it was him.
"I do apologise Alastor, I did not think it was necessary and..."
"Constant vigilance!"
"Look," Sirius interrupted the two. "let's get back to Harry please."
"Well Sirius," Remus spoke up. "I know he does not really like it there but if it is the safest thing for him then I think..."
"Remus," Sirius cut him off. "the night I met Harry I offered him the chance to live with me and he practically jumped at the opportunity even though he thought I was a mass murderer less than an hour ago, what does that tell you about those relatives of his?"
"Now Sirius," Dumbledore frowned. "I know that..." The door to the office quickly opened as Severus Snape rushed in. "Severus, what is..."
"Potter is going to be attacked." Snape said before Dumbledore could finish.
"That cannot be," Dumbledore said, shaking his head. "the blood wards would protect him from Voldemort and..."
"Voldemort is not the one who is going to attack him," Snape said. "it is someone else."
"Who?!" Sirius demanded.
"I was not told. All I know is that it is one person." Snape said.
"When?" Remus asked.
"I don't know. I could not ask too many questions." Snape said with a small shrug.
"Hmm, Shacklebolt, Alastor, take a few other members with you and wait by privet drive." Dumbledore ordered. "I doubt this person will be able to breach the wards but it can never hurt to be prepared just in case."
"And what should we do if someone is able to get to the house?" Kingsley Shacklebolt asked.
"If Severus is right then it will only be one person, I am sure that between you all you will be able to subdue him or her. If not then you shall contact us and we will arrive as soon as possible." Dumbledore replied.
"Let's go then." Sirius said to Moody and Shacklebolt.
"Sirius, I think it would be best if you stay here." Dumbledore replied.
"What?! Why?!" Sirius demanded.
"Probably so you don't mess up this as well." Snape commented.
"Go suck a cock Snape!" Sirius glared at him.
"Sirius, you are emotional when it comes to Harry so I think it's best if you stay here." Dumbledore said in a calm voice. "If Harry truly needs help then you can go with the rest of the order if needed, but for now only Alastor, Kingsley and a few others." Dumbledore gestured to Moody and Shacklebolt, they took five members with them before leaving.
"Screw this, I'm going." Sirius said, about to walk out when Remus grabbed him by the arm.
"Sirius I know that you're worried about Harry but it doesn't help anyone if you go full Gryffindor and just charge in there." Remus said. "I get it but you should stay here for now."
"Fine." Sirius gritted out before he yanked his arm out of Remus's hand.
.....
"Damn!" Moody cursed as he stomped back in to the room about an hour later. Shacklebolt followed in after him with a limping leg and made sure to slam the door shut.
"Are you guys alright?" Tonks asked.
"Alastor, Kinglsey, what happened?" Dumbledore asked.
"Is Harry alright?!" Sirius asked.
"We'll be fine," Moody said as he and Kingsley sat down. "we got to the house and found it on fire."
"But...but what about Harry?" Dumbledore asked, disbelief on his face.
"Saw the Potter boy fighting someone, both of them were throwing spell after spell at each other." Kingsley said, unable to keep the awe out of his voice. "It was a high paced and dangerous fight. I couldn't tell who was winning."
"Who was this person?" Dumbledore asked.
"I don't know, he had a hood up and a charm on the hood to cover his face, my eye couldn't see through it." Moody said.
"Screw him, what about Harry?" Sirius asked impatiently.
"The fight of theirs ended in a draw, the guy ran away, we went to talk with him but then the boy ran away from us." Moody replied.
"We tried chasing after him." Kingsley sighed. "He wasn't exactly in a mood to listen."
"Didn't you guys leave with five other people?" Tonks asked.
"We're trying to see if they can be healed up here, if not then we'll send them to St Mungo's." Kingsley answered.
"Turns out that Potter is a bit more dangerous than we thought." Moody commented, rubbing his right side.
"Wait, Harry did this?!" Sirius asked, somewhere between concerned for Harry and full of pride about the fact that his godson could take on so many wizards.
"There is no way that Potter could do this." Snape said with disbelief.
"Well he did!" Moody snapped, glaring at Snape.
"Yeah, worse part was he was just trying to get away. I think he thought that we might have been with the one who attacked him." Kingsley guessed. "I can't help but wonder what he could have done if he actually tried to fight us."
"Yes, well I think that..." Dumbledore was cut off by the sound of screaming from outside the door. Everyone pulled their wands out as more screams followed.
"Um...are we expecting anyone?" Tonks asked, wand in her hand along with all of the other order members. It didn't help anyone's nerves when there was more screaming.
"Wands ready everyone." Dumbledore said, everyone aimed their wands at the door.
The door blasted opened and a stunner shot into the room, one order member managed to block it but fell to the second stunner that came after her.
"You fucker have got all of five seconds to stand down before I come in and wreck all of you!" One voice shouted.
"Wait...Harry?!" Sirius called. "Harry is that you?!" Sirius shouted.
"Sirius?!" Harry's voice replied. "The fuck are you doing here?!"
"This is my house, what are you doing here?!"
"I followed some people here!"
"Wands down!" Sirius said to the order members. "Wands down now!"
"Wands down everyone." Dumbledore nodded and everyone listened before lowering their wands.
"Harry come in." Sirius called. After a few moments Harry did come in, though he kept his wand up and ready. The order could not help but notice the bruise on his left cheek and his cut lip. There was sweat rolling down his face and his hair laid down flat.
"My goodness!" Molly gasped when she saw the state of him.
"Tonks, Moony, Dumbledore and a couple of other people I know. What the fuck are you all doing here?" Harry asked as he lowered his wand but kept it in his hand.
"This is the headquarters for the order of the phoenix." Dumbledore explained.
"The what?" Harry asked, a confused look on his face. Tonks gave him a grateful look and a small wink for not revealing that she told him.
"I am sure Sirius will explain it to you later but first I need to know what happened." Dumbledore replied.
"I was at home, next thing I know my house is on fire and I am getting attacked. I fight the guy who did it and then he runs away, next thing I know those two are there..." Harry gestured to Moody and Kingsley. "...I didn't know who they were so I ran and they chased me."
"Potter, are you really so stupid to forget that that is Alastor Moody?" Snape sneered.
