Chapter Six
“Heavy Heart to Carry”
Everything around me was fading in and out in a blurry mess, like I was swimming from the bottom of the Black Lake, fighting my way to the surface, yet there was something in me that didn’t want to surface, a very large part of me wanted to remain in that dark place, I found peace in it, peace to be free finally. Floating in that dark peace I could faintly hear voices but I willingly let myself sink back, surrendering to an ultimate end.
“Wake up Harrison, come on wake up Harry it’s time to open your eyes.”
Feeling fuzzy and slow, I looked around myself seeing a totally different surrounding then what I had known for a year.
“Harrison James Potter I want your full attention right this instant!”
Focusing I was frightened and yet relived by what I was seeing.
“Mum, Dad? I’m dead, did my body give out?
“Close to it your magic is barely sustaining you right now.”
“Finally, I wanted to die, is this heaven?”
“Harrison James Potter I never want to ever hear those words from your mouth! How dare you throw away something so precious! Life is not to be thrown away like a candy wrapper young man; we sacrificed our lives to keep you safe!”
“Neither of you have any idea what life has been like for me, what I have gone through, what I had to suffer!”
“We all must suffer in life that is just the way fate is, but to actively seek your own death; I did not beg Tom Riddle to spare you for you to end this way.”
“What does he have to do with anything anymore, I’m in Azkaban for murder and treason crimes I did not and could never committee, let good ole Tom have this world, they deserve to have him running the show, let’s see how they handle real murder and treason!”
“Son, Harry, we know how hard it’s been, how unfair you have been treated.”
“Hard, unfair! That would be a welcomed change from what I have been living! Do either of you have any idea at all what I just went through?”
“Yes Harry and loosing a child is the most heartbreaking, soul wrenching event to happen to anyone.”
“I can take heartbreak, hell I survived having the man I gave my heart to betray me and side with all those that accused and abandoned me. I lived it and yes it still tears me up, but soul wrenching, no my soul wasn’t wrenched; it was ripped from me in three pieces, and then taken away. Soul wrenching I no longer have a soul, so why shouldn’t I want to die, why can’t I welcome death with open arms?”
“Those pieces you spoke of, those three beautiful reasons to survive and fight need you and will always need you. All you see is now and the fact that your in prison.”
“Yes where I have been locked away for the rest of my life, life without my babies isn’t life at all.’
“Son there is a much bigger picture, a higher plan a destiny we all must fulfill, unfortunately ours took us away from you, and for now it has taken your babies away from you, but know that your part as well as several others has yet to be completed. The truth will out eventually. And you will be cleared.”
“And yet that does not matter to me, I sent the triplets away from me, I had them sent to the muggle world, I didn’t want them growing up in a world that sentenced me to hell.”
“Harry, oh Harry, Voldomort won’t stop with just the wizarding world, he’s insane and wants nothing more then to rid the world of all those who do not agree with his fanatical beliefs wizard or muggle. Your children are in the wizarding world still and will need you. If not for the world then think of them, they will be part of the people that will suffer and become oppressed by that maniac, they don’t deserve that Harry, no one does.”
“They can’t be here, the Healer promised!”
“For now they are safe but in the future that will not remain so and if your gone then who will protect them Harrison, who will save wizarding kind so that they actually see adulthood?”
“I can’t it’s too much!”
“You can and you will! You’re a Potter and Potter’s survive and triumph. It will be hard, it will be the worst hell you can imagine but you have to be stronger then all of it, strong enough for everyone, no matter who they are. It’s destiny, more then that it’s your destiny, for all that’s said and done you are the only one.”
“We love you Harrison and we will be here for you, but not for many many years to come. “
“Wait! If my babies are still in the wizarding world where are they?”
“Safe and loved, now it’s time for you to go back.”
“But where are they?”
“The Healer sent them to a wizarding family far away from the problems occurring and they will be well looked after for quiet awhile, you just have to let it happen Harry, but as for yourself you have a lot of work to do, your inheritance will be coming soon and then the peace of a prison cell will be a miracle. Our time is done here Harry, We love you son but it’s time for you to go back.”
“Okay, I love you Mum, Dad.”
“Love you to green eyes.”
Opening my eyes it took me several minutes to realize that I wasn’t with my mum and dad anymore but in the room I used to see Healer Balustrade in, on the bed and all I could feel was the immense weakness in my whole body, Closing my eyes I decided that going back to sleep was the best action that I could take at this time.
By the way not to cause confusion when Harry is called Harrison that is his mother speaking just to clear it up. Thank you to all my faithful and new reviewers.
