Third p.o.v.

The world was celebrating and it was all thanks to a certain savior. Harry had finally had it his fifth year and revolted against Umbridge sending the toad into a rage. Harry suffered through the pain of those horrid blood quills trying to distract her attention from the other students. It was during this time that harry saw a vision, or so he thought, of his godfather, Sirius being tortured by Voldemort. Being the stubborn and pigheaded boy that he is Harry rushed to save his only remaining family member.

He arrived at the Department of Mysteries to not find Sirius but a prophecy. It was the one thing Voldemort wanted more than Harry. It was the one thing he didn't have on the last war. It said that Harry would defeat Voldemort with a secret weapon. Though he did know what that was.

Harry stared at the ceiling of the small bedroom his aunt and uncle had given him. He was starting his sixth year at Hogwarts and it was only seven days till his birthday. He had defeated Voldemort a few weeks ago but at the cost of his godfather's life. All of the Death eaters were captured. Many were given the kiss or a life sentence, but there were a few that were proved innocent (Because they were under the imperious). Remus was out and about trying to find the wolf pack to rejoin. He did manage to keep in touch with his adopted godson and Harry couldn't have been more thankful. Harry needed the support because he was still feeling like it was his fault. There were those few Death Eaters that Harry even had testified on behalf of. Those were Snape and the Malfoys. He and Draco had worked out their differences after the trial of his godfather and family, and had even become friends during those last few weeks at Hogwarts. Harry and Draco had become such good friends that Harry told Draco everything about his summers. Draco was very angry but promised not to tell anyone about what happened. After everything had settled down, Harry was sent back to his Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon.

The train ride home was silent for the most part, with everyone celebrating the fall of Voldemort. Hermione and Ron were celebrating in a car a few rows away with Seamus and Dean. Harry was still mourning when the door to his compartment opened and Draco walked inside. They talked for a while everyone else was either Celebrating the fall of the Dark Lord or mourning loss of a loved one. Finally the train pulled into the station, and everyone went to get their thing. Hermione and Ron had gotten used to Draco. Draco understood what Harry was going through because the war had claimed the life of Draco's mother. When they stepped off the train everyone cheered and celebrated. Harry was finally allowed to pass through the gate and onto the muggle platform. He met his uncle just outside the train station. His aunt and uncle knew what had happen that school year and, while his aunt was proud of him for being able to survive, his uncle was even more determined to beat the freakiness out of his nephew. When he got to his aunt and uncle, his aunt surprised his uncle and him. His Aunt Petunia hugged him and said they would go shopping latter. Even Dudley, who was there, thought what Harry did was amazing.

To say his uncle was unhappy was an understatement. He was furious that his wife was being kind to that freak of his nephew. When Harry looked his uncle in the eye he saw this anger and knew he would pay later. It was something that had always happened. He would do something wrong and get punished for it when he and his uncle were alone. Petunia and Dudley wanted to know just what Harry had been going through when he was at Hogwarts. So Harry told them everything, from the Philosopher Stone to what happened at the Ministry of Magic. Even his uncle could not deny that Harry had gone through quite a lot but that did not mean that he took pity on Harry. In fact it was quite the opposite since he had been through so much, and things far worse then what Vernon himself had done, then he could take worse punishment.

When they arrived home Vernon was about to tell Harry to put his things in the cupboard, but Harry was already doing it. Harry even started on his chores with a smile on his face; much to the surprise of his aunt and uncle. It was the usual clean the house, mow the lawn, and weed the flower bed. When the chores where done, Harry decided to cook for his aunt and uncle.

"Aunt Petunia do you mind if I cook? I know Dudley is on a diet and this is healthy food that tastes good, and fills you up." Harry asked quietly. His aunt and cousin both turned to look at him; Petunia in surprise and Dudley in hope.

"Of course Harry. That would be lovely." Petunia replied quietly and Harry set to work. It only took him thirty minutes to make the dish. When his family tried it, Dudley started to eat like he hadn't eaten in years. Even his uncle had to admit it was delicious. After everyone was done eating, Harry took their plates to the kitchen and started to wash them. When everything was done he asked if they wanted anything else, and when they said no he bid them goodnight and went upstairs.

It was then that Harry knew he would be punished. He didn't have to wait long as he heard his uncle behind him. Harry entered his room, his uncle enter behind him. Vernon knew that his nephew was very powerful but knew that he wouldn't do anything to hurt him as he would be expelled from his school. His uncle started to punch and kick Harry, screaming at him about corrupting his wife and son. Harry didn't know how long the beating lasted but at last it was over. His uncle, tired and sweating from all the effort he had put into beating Harry, Harry laying there on the floor. Hedwig, in her cage, hooted softly from the corner. She was concerned about her master's well being. Harry crawled over to her and unlocked her cage. He wrote a quick letter to the Weasley's asking for healing potions. After opening the window for Hedwig, she soared into the night carrying his letter with wanted to help her master as soon as possible. Little did Hedwig know her master would soon be free of all the pain he suffered.
