Chapter Thirteen
“Is It So Easy?”
Casting the glamour spell, I headed for the entrance to the castle to make my way into the great hall. Laughing to myself at the fact that Draco Malfoy had been left shocked and awed at my little display of power, I had known he was there for a bit and had decided to play a little game with him. Keeping my back to him the whole time never giving him the opportunity to see me as I am now, and that silent apparition I pulled, well it was a great moment. One that I wasn’t going to let get destroyed by being forced to take my meals with all those back stabbing, traitors.
“Ah Harry, you made it, I didn’t think you would.”
“You demanded my presence, therefore I am here, now let’s eat.”
Walking passed all the house tables I headed to the head table.
“Harry if you will please take a seat at your former house table we can start.”
“Are you that far gone into senility you old fool, I have no house or did you forget I was expelled by McGonagall.”
“I’m sure that Minerva will have no problem reinstating your status in Gryffindor. Right Professor, especially since Harry will be returning to complete the schooling he needs.”
“That’s it old man!”
“Harry I am sure that I don’t understand.”
“Stop calling me Harry or dear boy or son or any other false endearment you can think of! Mr. Potter or if you’re so inclined Potter will be fine but I will only allow those I consider friends to address me so familiarly.”
“Very well I apologize Mr. Potter I’m sure we can all come to an agreement on things.”
“Look you old bat, I am not here by choice and as soon as I am able I’ll be gone!”
“Har… Mr. Potter education is not something to be pushed aside like an inconvenience.”
“Really then what is? Maybe sixteen year old boys are your preferred inconvenience then?”
“Harry! How could you speak to the headmaster so disrespectfully!”
“I have already asked that I not be addressed as if you are all my friends or even acquaintances?”
“But we are your friends Harry we all are.”
“That’s real funny considering not one of you fought or defended me, none of you even stood up for me and asked for a trial, did anyone of you even bother to investigate or did you all just go along agreeing that I was a traitor and murderer, did even one of you even stop and think that me killing anyone would be just a bit out of character, that it’s something I would never do especially to people I considered my family.”
“All the evidence pointed to you, I mean the headmaster told us about how you refused to take the veritaserum, and the twins were set to meet with you, it said so in their planners.”
“So that meant that I was guilty, did none of you even think about why I refused and you as a mud blood know how easy it is to falsify things like planners!”
The multiple gasps told me that no one expected me to call Granger that insult.
“That term is not allowed in the school or in such company young man, I want you to apologize this second!”
“I will not apologize for speaking the truth, besides you dragged me here in the first place, now either let me eat in peace or I will return to my room!”
“You’ve changed, you’ve become some one completely different then the Harry I called my friend.”
“You mean the one you betrayed into prison?”
“Honestly what did you all expect? It’s been seven years, please tell me all of you are not that stupid to think or believe that I will forgive or forget. That all it would take is a simple apology and I would rush to befriend all of you again? Let me disillusion all of you I will never forget and neither will I forgive any of you!”
Leaving the hall, I couldn’t believe the nerve of these fools, how dare they stand there and behave in such a way? Gathering my little left over control I headed to my rooms wanting nothing more then to lock myself away, and forget they even existed, if it wasn’t for the fact that my children were still in the wizarding world I would leave Voldomort to burn it all to the bloody ground. Speaking to the portrait I gave the password and entered my room. Walking to the kitchen I stopped short the whole room was covered in cushions, I had a felling that not one was left in all of Hogwarts castle. Laughing out loud I vanished most of the cushions and placed what I kept around the rest of my rooms as well as placing several on the nook bench. Calling to Dobby I thanked him for his efforts and asked for lunch. The bouncing elf vanished and popped back in just as quickly. Thanking him again I tucked into my meal with enthusiasm.
