CONSEQUENCE The boy who survived

Chapter 9 -

Who knows what the boy could have learnt when he was in America?

And then there were his friends. They, much like Harry, carried themselves as if they were not worried or fearing of anything or anyone, even the squib. To a trained eye it was clear that Harry was the leader of the group yet this seemed more like a pack of wolves where the leader was simply the most dangerous, that did not mean that the other's were not dangerous. If Dumbledore had to guess then he would say the second strongest was probably Red or Violet, Red looked like a young Tom Riddle and Dumbledore had learnt that Violet was Red's sister, meaning they were both the children of Voldemort.

It was highly possible that they were both strong magic users, likely even better at dark magic than Harry. Then there was the other girl, Rose he believed her name was, she seemed like a normal if very cheerful girl but that did not necessarily mean that she was weak. After all Dumbledore gave off the appearance of an old grandfather but that did not mean he was weak. Then there was the squib, while he had no magic he still seemed like he was not at all bothered or scared in the presence of magic users.

Argus Filch, the squib caretaker of Hogwarts, always looked somewhere between scared and angry when in the presence of magic users. But not the boy, Ryan Dumbledore thought his name was, maybe it was because of who his friends were or maybe the boy had some secret that made him feel all the much braver, or another possibility was that he simply did not understand how dangerous it is for him.

As for the magic users in the group, Dumbledore did not know if they were at the same power level as Harry, and until then it was incredibly unwise to try them all in a fight.

With that, Dumbledore decided to let the events go on until he could find a way to fix everything.

"God I missed you Prongs!" Sirius cried into James's shoulder.

"Call the aurors." One healer whispered to another, the person nodded before he quickly rushed off.

"I am so sorry James," Sirius blubbered. "I shouldn't have convinced you to make Peter the secret keeper!"

"Peter!" Lily shouted, causing all people in the room to jump.

"Lily!" Remus and Sirius cried with joy and went over to hug her.

"Hi guys," Lily smiled before her rage returned. "where is that rat?! I am going to kill him!"

"Not if I beat you to him! Where is he?!" James demanded.

"That's a bit of a story," Remus sighed when he and Sirius finished hugging Lily. "oh hello Adrian, sorry for not noticing you."

"It's alright." Adrian grinned. "I understand."

"Adrian, I...hold up..." Sirius paused as he looked at Harry and his friends. "...mini prongs?" Sirius asked before realisation came to him. "Harry?! Is that you?!"

"Yep." Harry grinned. "I don't think I have to guess your name, Severus Snape right?"

"What?!"

"I mean you look exactly like he was described as, same nose and everything." Harry said with a straight face.

"I have never been more insulted in my life!" Sirius exclaimed while the others stifled their laughter.
