Chapter 3 Let the Games Begin
The next day, the Potters did indeed wake up during Little Harry’s visit, but for the most part did not have enough strength to get up and start moving around. They were relieved that their son was with his Godfather and was safe and happy. Sirius did not go into any details about what had happened except to tell them that the war was over. He also explained that he and the baby were safely hidden in one of the safest places in the world. The baby sat on the bed with his parents babbling away telling them about Ewan (he couldn’t pronounce the v) and Lili. Sirius didn’t know what else he was saying as those were the only two words he understood, but Lily and James paid attention as if hanging on every word.
When Sirius arrived back at Prince Manor, he saw Moony, Snape and his brother Regulus all huddled over some plans with, of all things, two wood nymphs. But they had been waiting for Padfoot to come back to give his input on the situation. He was after all one of the original marauders.
He had been waiting for this moment. Wanting it so bad he could taste it. Ever since he had gotten out of the cells of the ministry and understood the sacrifices these people made, he wanted this. He had made his peace with Severus Snape, and he considered his experience in school, his boyhood pranks, as just the tip of the iceberg to what they were planning now. The new marauders, the four men, were now uniting together to complete their mission.
It was time for Operation Dursley.
The four men and the two wood nymphs planned their attack for about an hour before they had a good viable plan. It was a mixture of muggle pranks, earth magic and wizard tricks. It was brilliant as far as Sirius was concerned; he just had to get the feel for planning ‘with’ Snape instead of plotting ‘against’ him. It was, in a way, very surreal.
Harry and Severus Prince were upstairs with the children decorating number three Privet Drive with all the muggle decorations Harry could persuade the others to use. Just as he had done last year, he decorated with a vigor only born from being denied the freedom to do this during his childhood. Lili, Evan, Little Harry and Teddy were all having fun with the fairy lights, the tinsel and the bulbs that were going up on the Christmas tree; watching the pretty glow around the house. Harry even let the little ones decorate the bottom of the tree after casting an unbreakable spell on the delicate bulbs.
The Prince couple had so far not really gotten in the spirit of Operation Dursley, instead spending time with their children and being a family with the other extended members. It was strange to Padfoot for he would have thought that Harry would certainly want to get his revenge, But when Sirius asked him about it, he merely shrugged and answered, “My future is with my husband and my children. The ones who hurt me are all gone; these are just shadows of what might have been. Karma will always have her way and they will pay. This part of the war is for you to fight.” Of course what Harry didn’t tell him was that he had his own plans for after they were finished with them. After all, Vernon and Petunia did sell baby Harry and abuse him for the short time they thought they had him. Just because it happened to be a golem, did not mean the crime was any less severe. For now, he was content to sit back and see what the new marauders came up with.
Even thought the man was two years younger than him, Sirius knew that this Harry had seen more and was so much more mature than he and his friends ever thought to be. In his eyes you could sometimes see the battle weary soldier. Only when his mind was on his family did you see the bright smile and the light heartedness of his face. It was at those times he looked like the young man he was.
Harry turned back to watch his husband pick up their daughter and let her put the star on the top of the tree. At he raised up his arms so Lili could reach the top, the shirt that Severus was wearing rode up so that Harry got a peek at the smooth flesh at the waist of the man’s low riding jeans. Just as if a switch had been turned on, he suddenly was not interested in finishing the decorations for the holiday.
Sirius, who had been studying the young man for a few minutes, noticed the sudden change in expression. When he followed Harry’s line of site he smirked and decided to give the men a break, although he saw that Severus had yet to notice his husband’s hungry stare as he held his daughter in his arms.
When Lili and her father finally got the star on top of the tree, she tapped it with her little scepter and the star started glowing brightly. It was so bright; you would have thought it was plugged into the muggle electricity socket in the wall. Severus then put his young daughter, smiling at her fondly and turned to look at his husband sitting on the couch.
Their eyes locked and held in communication. Now Severus had a similar problem to the younger man and both of them were wearing muggle clothes with no robes to cover their indiscriminating body parts from the children.
Sirius smirked and clapped his hands together a few times to get the children’s attention. “How about everyone join Uncle Padfoot downstairs for some fruit and juice,” he asked the kids to take the attention off the couple. “We could have it in the pool room and go flying a little while.”
That got an immediate reaction; the children started jumping up and down with little Lili waving her scepter and doing little circles, twirling in her excitement. They started to crowd around “Unca Foo” and followed him to the cupboard under the stairs that had the hidden entrance to the lower levels to Prince Stronghold Manor. As soon as they were out of the muggle portion of the house, Sirius called for three elves to bring snacks and help with the children.
Severus watched the other leave the room with a fond smile. He loved his children and Little Harry and Teddy too, but he needed some alone time with his husband as well and he was not going to waste the opportunity that was given them. He grabbed his husband’s hand and dragged him upstairs to the master bedroom.
MAJOR SNARRY YUMMYNESS SCENE
When they reached the bedroom, Severus put up silencing and locking charms over the door. He didn't want to get interrupted again like he had been last night and this morning. He wanted his husband.
As he kissed Harry and drew him close, he quickly unbuttoned Harry's shirt to get at the smooth flesh that he ached to touch. He quickly unfastened the younger man's pants and picked him up with a growl and threw him on the bed. He noticed as he leaned down on top of his husband, he clothes were also unfastened as Harry had been just as busy trying to get the offending garments off his body.
They quickly divested themselves of the remainder of their clothes even as Severus accioed the lube from the bedside table. He quickly engulfed Harry in the wet heat of his mouth as he lubed his fingers and roughly shoved two fingers into the waiting entrance that he would soon penetrate.
Harry started bucking in response to the vast amount of stimulation being given to his intimate body parts. Oh he had missed this the last couple of days. He loved his children, but sometimes they put a crimp in his lifestyle. It seemed that every time he and Severus had a moment alone and started to enjoy each other's bodies, they had gotten interrupted for some reason or other.
Severus had just reached his prostate and Harry jerked and bucked; it felt so good. Now his husband was finished playing around and moved to position himself at the entrance that begged to be filled. Severus surged forward with a single fluid movement. Harry keened out in surprise and delight as in that one stroke his little bundle of nerves was stabbed at with such force, the wind was nearly knocked out of him.
It didn't take long for either man to come to his completion. They both had been needing this for several days. It also didn't slake their passions very much as even though Severus had his orgasm the same time as Harry, he started the process all over again without pulling away from the tight channel, much to the delight of the younger man.
END MAJOR SNARRY YUMMYNESS SCENE
That evening the real fun started to begin. Regulus (now called Lynx for his animagus), Moony, Snape (now called Viper for his animagus), Padfoot and the two wood Nymphs gathered together in the house just behind number four Privet Drive. It was dark now and they stealthily walked in the rear of the property. With a flick of his wand, Sirius made a gate in the wall of the fence. As soon as they reach the next yard, they got to work. It was cold and the wizards flicked their wands again to have a warming charm on the whole area. Padfoot silently gave a word of thanks that there were wards around the area. The ministry would not be able to detect their magic in the muggle neighborhood.
The four wizards defrosted the icy ground while the wood nymphs started to plant their seeds. With a powdered herb added to the ground and a few words the wizards didn’t understand, the trees grew instantly to at least five meters tall so that they reached almost to the top of the house. As they grew thick, the six adults had to skirt around the property to avoid getting crushed or lost by the denseness of the foliage. Then the spiders came in to ‘decorate’ with an eerie web.
The snakes had been hunting and there were seven small animals that had been caught to place in the trees. As the spiders got to work and the snakes continued to hunt, the six adults then moved to the front yard.
Now, Sirius loved to tinker with muggle vehicles. He loved the special additions he made to his motorcycle and he was looking forward to ‘improving’ Vernon Dursley’s car. He knew from the information he had been given in the war room and from his own personal observations, that the Dursleys really strived to be more normal than anyone else. You could say that made them abnormally normal.
The first thing he did was to spell a few rust spots to the underside of the car. He didn’t want anything to show on the out side, but wanted Dursley to drive the vehicle to work and it to fall apart on the way. He then fixed the muffler so that it would give out halfway down the block so his neighbors would all hear the horrendous noise early in the morning as the man left for work.
As Padfoot worked on the car, the others were making the front of the house look like a forest just as the back of the house did. Sirius believed it was the fairies that were having the most fun.
The house now resembled a kaleidoscope of colors. Hues of green, red, teal, yellow, purple, and black now decorated the outside of the once single light colored home. Even the roof was different colors, resembling some kind of rainbow that threw up splashes of color on the dwelling. But the fairies didn’t stop there. Once they were finished with the outside, they went through the fireplace and started on the inside. The carpet, walls, drapes, ceilings and furniture were all several different shades of color. They even included the humans’ hair and turned it neon pink on Vernon, and teal blue on Petunia. Their young son Dudley they left alone for now.
As the men finished the forest of trees on every inch of the yard, they also grew their plants to magnanimous proportions. The neatly trimmed hedges that were only half a meter high now were a mangled mess, covering the windows and trailing along the ground.
They had noticed that Vernon left for the day by coming out of the garage to get in his car, so Moony spelled the garage door to belch VERY LOUDLY, every time it was opened. Then he thought; why not do the same to the front and back doors? After thinking about his handiwork, he also decided to include the windows to do the same.
Once they had finished with the outside of the house and the fairies had completed the inside of the house, they were ready for the next phase.
The wood nymphs left as their part was complete, but the wizards, fairies, snakes and spiders were just getting started.
The floo was now blocked with spider webbing as the snakes piled about thirty rats into the webs. When the Dursley’s lit their Yule log or Christmas fire, the smoke would come back into the room and the rats would start to cook. The smoke would then fill the room and thus they would have to open the windows and doors, which would then let out a large belch.
There were mirrors hung around the house by Snape and Regulus that would show over and over again little baby Harry crying for his mother and being sold by his Uncle. In the mirror he would keep saying that he died and would come back to haunt them and make them pay. The mirrors were put on the ceilings, on the walls of every room even the kitchen and the bathrooms. They were unbreakable and hung with a permanent sticking charm.
The spiders were now decorating the walls and ceilings with more spider webs, while Moony and Padfoot were placing muggle plastic toy spiders in the webbing and spelling the toys to look and move like real spiders. They wouldn’t risk their own when Petunia was sure to call an exterminator.
Finally about an hour before dawn, everyone decided that they had done enough. They went through the secret entrance that was in the cupboard under the stairs (the Dursleys didn’t know about it, but it had been spelled there in case they actually had Baby Harry) and disappeared without a trace.
It had taken a total of five hours for four wizards, two wood nymphs, thirty acromantulas, and seven snakes to finish the task at hand. They had used over one hundred toy spiders, over fifty rats, and about twenty other small animals. It was a wonder what two Slytherins and two Gryffindors could do when cooperating together. They all went to sleep for a few hours before the fireworks started when those people woke up.
All four men camped out in a room that Salazar had set up as a viewing room. Not only were the mirrors in the Dursley house going to show Baby Harry talking to them, they were also going to show what was going on in the house. The others would be able to see through connecting mirrors. Moony and Snape shared one bed in the room, while Regulus and Sirius were on single beds in the same room. This way they would know the minute the Dursleys woke up and what their reactions were.
“VERRRRRNOOOOOOOOON!” a high pitched squeal reach the ears of the four men in the special viewing room. As soon as they heard it; Regulus floo called Salazar to tell him that they should come and enjoy the show. Five minutes later, the beds had been transfigured to chairs and sofas and there were ten adults in the room watching the action unfold.
Poor Harry had a stitch in his side, just laughing at Vernon’s hair. The neon pink hair clashed with his face as it turned from red to an almost purple with rage at the changes in his house. No room had been left untouched and he was furious at what he considered the destruction of his home.
He went into the bathroom to shave and brush his teeth, when a vision of Little Harry came and scolded him in this perfect little boy voice. “It was your entire fault Uncle, you were supposed to help me and you sold me. I will never leave you now. I will be here forever to remind you of your sins.”
Vernon’s face blanched and he smashed his fist into the mirror before him. When it didn’t break he tried again. His hand came back bloodied, but the mirror didn’t break. Petunia was outside the bathroom. “Vernon, Vernon! What are we going to do? Marge will be here later today!” The woman was shouting, shrieking with a shrill high pitched tone. “Vernon! Vernon! What are we…”
“Would you shut up woman and give me a break?” Vernon shouted back in the face of his wife as he opened the bathroom door. “I don’t know what happened! We will have to call Marge and stop her coming over here and ask her if we can come there.”
“What will we tell her?” Petunia calmed down her shrieking a bit in the face of her husband’s anger.
“Call her and tell her we have a plumbing problem. Tell her that a pipe broke in the kitchen and the house was flooded during the night.” Vernon said after thinking about it for a few minutes.
“Yes, I can do that. I will call right now before she leaves.” Now that they had a plan, Petunia could do something.
After she spoke to Marge, she and Vernon packed a bag and put together the presents for Dudley. Today was Christmas Eve and tomorrow would be Christmas Day. They would be back the day after and see what they could do to put their house to rights.
Everything would be alright. They knew they had a few things to deal with, but they could fix it and then go back to normal. At least that was what they believed until they opened the front door. “BBBBBBBBUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPPP” said the door as they walked through it. The neighbor across the street heard the noise as she was picking up her morning news paper from the front porch. She looked at the people from number four and hurriedly went back into her house. Those people were weird.
When the Dursleys went outside, they were greeted with trees in their yard. On the trees hung spider webs and dead rats, and other small animals and more spiders were in the webbing. Vernon and Petunia looked around; their yard that looked more like a Halloween spook house than a Christmas Holiday. They were very glad to notice the car in the driveway looked relatively unscathed. At least they could get out of here without too much trouble.
They stored their bags in the boot of the car and all got in. After Dudley was secured in the baby travelling seat in the back, Vernon started the car and slowly pulled out of the driveway. You couldn’t even see the front of the house for all the trees, except the front door up the walkway. He didn’t let on to his wife, but he was getting worried about what kind of curse those freaks put on the house to make it act so weird.
They hadn’t even gone half a block, when the car started to make these huge noises, “CLUNK, RATTLE, CLUNK, CLUNK, BOOM, BOOM, CLUNK, CLUNK.” There was a rhythm somewhere in there if you listened carefully. Everyone in the neighborhood heard the loud noises and looked out their windows to see what was going on.
Vernon just kept driving; he wanted to get out of there as fast as possible, hoping the curse would have been lifted by the time they came back.
Finally the nanny elf came into the viewing room to alert Harry that the children were waking up. Little Harry would go with Sirius to visit his parents again directly after breakfast. They had to start their day, now that the show was over.
Harry had laughed at the way things had been put together. The pranks were mostly attacking the Dursley’s normalness and didn’t do anything to harm them bodily. He would have to thank the group later. Now, he wanted to go shopping with Becca and Tonks to get the Potters a few Christmas gifts. Everything else had already been bought and wrapped, but they had not been expecting James and Lily to wake so soon. It was important to Harry to have a very wonderful Christmas with the Potters as well as his family.
A/N Thank you to all that have read and reviewed. I hope you like the Dursleys punishment. More is to come. In order to not make the story itself too long, I will recap a little of the The Third Time Charm for those who ask.

The mirrors were put on the ceilings, on the walls of every room even the kitchen and the bathrooms. They were unbreakable and hung with a permanent sticking charm.
The spiders were now decorating the walls and ceilings with more spider webs, while Moony and Padfoot were placing muggle plastic toy spiders in the webbing and spelling the toys to look and move like real spiders. They wouldn’t risk their own when Petunia was sure to call an exterminator.
Finally about an hour before dawn, everyone decided that they had done enough. They went through the secret entrance that was in the cupboard under the stairs (the Dursleys didn’t know about it, but it had been spelled there in case they actually had Baby Harry) and disappeared without a trace.
It had taken a total of five hours for four wizards, two wood nymphs, thirty acromantulas, and seven snakes to finish the task at hand. They had used over one hundred toy spiders, over fifty rats, and about twenty other small animals. It was a wonder what two Slytherins and two Gryffindors could do when cooperating together. They all went to sleep for a few hours before the fireworks started when those people woke up.
All four men camped out in a room that Salazar had set up as a viewing room. Not only were the mirrors in the Dursley house going to show Baby Harry talking to them, they were also going to show what was going on in the house. The others would be able to see through connecting mirrors. Moony and Snape shared one bed in the room, while Regulus and Sirius were on single beds in the same room. This way they would know the minute the Dursleys woke up and what their reactions were.
“VERRRRRNOOOOOOOOON!” a high pitched squeal reach the ears of the four men in the special viewing room. As soon as they heard it; Regulus floo called Salazar to tell him that they should come and enjoy the show. Five minutes later, the beds had been transfigured to chairs and sofas and there were ten adults in the room watching the action unfold.
Poor Harry had a stitch in his side, just laughing at Vernon’s hair. The neon pink hair clashed with his face as it turned from red to an almost purple with rage at the changes in his house. No room had been left untouched and he was furious at what he considered the destruction of his home.
He went into the bathroom to shave and brush his teeth, when a vision of Little Harry came and scolded him in this perfect little boy voice. “It was your entire fault Uncle, you were supposed to help me and you sold me. I will never leave you now. I will be here forever to remind you of your sins.”
Vernon’s face blanched and he smashed his fist into the mirror before him. When it didn’t break he tried again. His hand came back bloodied, but the mirror didn’t break. Petunia was outside the bathroom. “Vernon, Vernon! What are we going to do? Marge will be here later today!” The woman was shouting, shrieking with a shrill high pitched tone. “Vernon! Vernon! What are we…”
“Would you shut up woman and give me a break?” Vernon shouted back in the face of his wife as he opened the bathroom door. “I don’t know what happened! We will have to call Marge and stop her coming over here and ask her if we can come there.”
“What will we tell her?” Petunia calmed down her shrieking a bit in the face of her husband’s anger.
“Call her and tell her we have a plumbing problem. Tell her that a pipe broke in the kitchen and the house was flooded during the night.” Vernon said after thinking about it for a few minutes.
“Yes, I can do that. I will call right now before she leaves.” Now that they had a plan, Petunia could do something.
After she spoke to Marge, she and Vernon packed a bag and put together the presents for Dudley. Today was Christmas Eve and tomorrow would be Christmas Day. They would be back the day after and see what they could do to put their house to rights.
Everything would be alright. They knew they had a few things to deal with, but they could fix it and then go back to normal. At least that was what they believed until they opened the front door. “BBBBBBBBUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPPP” said the door as they walked through it. The neighbor across the street heard the noise as she was picking up her morning news paper from the front porch. She looked at the people from number four and hurriedly went back into her house. Those people were weird.
When the Dursleys went outside, they were greeted with trees in their yard. On the trees hung spider webs and dead rats, and other small animals and more spiders were in the webbing. Vernon and Petunia looked around; their yard that looked more like a Halloween spook house than a Christmas Holiday. They were very glad to notice the car in the driveway looked relatively unscathed. At least they could get out of here without too much trouble.
They stored their bags in the boot of the car and all got in. After Dudley was secured in the baby travelling seat in the back, Vernon started the car and slowly pulled out of the driveway. You couldn’t even see the front of the house for all the trees, except the front door up the walkway. He didn’t let on to his wife, but he was getting worried about what kind of curse those freaks put on the house to make it act so weird.
They hadn’t even gone half a block, when the car started to make these huge noises, “CLUNK, RATTLE, CLUNK, CLUNK, BOOM, BOOM, CLUNK, CLUNK.” There was a rhythm somewhere in there if you listened carefully. Everyone in the neighborhood heard the loud noises and looked out their windows to see what was going on.
Vernon just kept driving; he wanted to get out of there as fast as possible, hoping the curse would have been lifted by the time they came back.
Finally the nanny elf came into the viewing room to alert Harry that the children were waking up. Little Harry would go with Sirius to visit his parents again directly after breakfast. They had to start their day, now that the show was over.
Harry had laughed at the way things had been put together. The pranks were mostly attacking the Dursley’s normalness and didn’t do anything to harm them bodily. He would have to thank the group later. Now, he wanted to go shopping with Becca and Tonks to get the Potters a few Christmas gifts. Everything else had already been bought and wrapped, but they had not been expecting James and Lily to wake so soon. It was important to Harry to have a very wonderful Christmas with the Potters as well as his family.
A/N Thank you to all that have read and reviewed. I hope you like the Dursleys punishment. More is to come. In order to not make the story itself too long, I will recap a little of the The Third Time Charm for those who ask.
