Harry's Strings (Being Rewritten)

Chapter 6

The next morning, during breakfast, Harry is summoned to the Headmaster's office.

"Harry, my boy, how are you?" Dumbledore asks jovially.

Sitting down in one of the plush armchairs, Harry scowls.

"Please don't call me your 'boy'. I guess I'm fine though." He replies.

Dumbledore's smile dimmed at Harry's response, but he quickly recovers.

"Well then, Mr. Potter, I have a few questions for you." He says a bit subdued.

Harry nods and gestures for him to continue.

"Where have you been for the past years?" The older man asks seriously.

"At home."

Dumbledore blinks at Harry's answer.

"But you hven't been at your Aunt's for a long time."

"That place was never my home." Harry says darkly.

"You can't mean that." The Headmaster starts.

Harry gives the man a deadpan look.

"The Dursley's may not be the nicest of families, but they're still your family."

"The Dursley's are a hateful bunch. They're a zoo of a family. They never liked me, much less loved me. My girraffe-horse hybrid of an Aunt hates me and wishes she had drowned me the moment she found me. My walrus of an Uncle wanted to drop me off at an orphanage and detested my very existance. Lastly, my whale of a cousin was raised just like his parents, hateful and horrible." Harry rants.

Dumbledore can only stare in silence at his student. After a minute of silence, the ravenette stands and storms from the room.

"What just happened?" Dumbledore whispers a few minutes later.

- I'm a lonely LineBreak -

"That bad?" CC asks, watchig Harry stomp into the room.

"He just- I- Well- UGH!" Is all he can get out.

Bonny skipps over and pats Harry's head.

"There there, Bunny's got you. Just let it all out." He soothes.

Harry relaxes into the touch slightly.

"It's Dumbledore. He thinks he knows everything, but he knows nothing about me! He was all 'They're your family!' and 'They aren't that bad!' It was rdiculous! What right does he have to know where I was for the past years anyway?!" Harry rants for the second time that day.

His friends don't talk, they just sit and listen.

- Linebreak Linebreak Liney Breaky Linebreak -

The rest of the groups' week is spent dodging Harry's fans and the Headmaster. They all want to know where he had been, who the Cawthon's were, why they were in Slytherin. The questions just keep coming.

As Harry and the crew sit down for lunch, they glare at everyone around them, daring them to come closer.

"I don't know how much longer I can take this." Harry groans.

CC nods in agreement. "They never stop!"

They continue to eat in silence, until someone taps on Harry's shoulder.

"What?!" Harry snaps.

"Watch your tone Mr.Potter!" A voice hisses back at him.

Harry turns around and groans.

Hey guys! Sorry for the late update and that it's so short. I'm having some writers' block. But here it is! So the question is...

Are any of you going to Anime Weekend Atlanta? If so, are you cosplaying? And if so, what are you cosplaying?

I totally am! And I'm also cosplaying. I'm going to be Maria Kurenai from Vampire Knight, Eto from Tokyo Ghoul, Ticci Toby the Creepypasta, and Trinity from the Matrix.

Ok, that's all for now. Bye! Vote, Comment, Share, and Don't forget to take the Red pill!
