Chapter 99 - The Arrival of New Powers

Harry woke to find Dobby asleep in a recliner next to him. Harry thought back on the crazy dreams he had last night where he was evicting people from houses amongst other things. He sat back with a slight smile as he remembered the dream about the Dursleys. He was half tempted to apparate to Surrey to see if it was true.

Dobby woke not long after and noticed Harry sitting there with a smile on his face. "What's got you so happy?"

"Oh, I just had a dream where the Dursleys were kicked out of their house. I could just imagine the horror my aunt would feel at having her perfect little world upset like that."

Dobby started laughing and Harry asked "What's so funny?"

"I told you family magic would give you a rough night. What you thought you dreamed was actually you taking control of your properties. I would be willing to bet that we will find a deed to Privet Dr in one of your vaults."

Harry jumped up and looked at Dobby expectantly. "Come on, I wanna go see."

Dobby laughed. "Sorry buddy but we have more important stuff to do today. Which will it be first? Gringotts or Megan?"

Harry sighed and plopped back down in the chair. "I guess it'd better be Gringotts first. I'm sure we will be there for a while. If I see Megan, I may not want to leave."

That same morning, the Daily Prophet was making its way to houses all across Britain. The blaring front page article would mean different things to different people but to everyone who read it, they knew that a change was coming and it probably would not be for the better.

The End of a Legend

By: Barry Timmons

After my previous article about the controversy surrounding Harry James Potter, the story of his trials and tribulations has piqued my interest. Sadly, we may never know the true story as it was reported that Mr. Potter stepped through a device that holds as much mystery about it as the savior of our world. It is with a heavy heart that I write another article about Mr. Potter now that we have more evidence to confirm his fate.

Late last night, I was contacted by an anonymous source from the Department Of Mysteries. Six weeks ago, it was reported that the Veil of Death had claimed young Harry James Potter after acting in a manner that has never occurred in the millennia that it has been monitored. The activities of the Veil during Mr. Potter's disappearance led many in the Department to hold out in hope that he might be able to return but those hopes very quickly dashed last night.

The elusive department has always maintained the theory that the Veil of Death was a one way portal to the afterlife. It was a theory that has been challenged lately with the strange behavior but even more so last evening when two figures stepped out of the Veil and into the Death Chamber.

The figures were clothed in long dark cloaks that revealed nothing of who they were. One of the leaders of the department stepped forward and made a greeting of welcoming Harry Potter back from the Veil. The figure responded with a low chuckle and replied "Harry Potter is dead." He then went on to say that it was doubtful that Mr. Potter would return even if he could as our world had done an effective job of destroying the fabled boy-who-lived.

When confronted about their identity, the leader's skeletal hand appeared holding a six foot high scythe. The leader did identify him and his companion as emissaries from the House of Death who were here to investigate the wrongs visited upon Mr. Potter.

When they were asked 'what was the point?' The being chuckled once again and said the point was whether the perpetrators of said wrongs would be spending time as their guests or be allowed to move on.

This reporter only knows of one group who openly supported Mr. Potter this last year. As for his schoolmates and teachers who were a big part of his torment, one can only hope that they have legitimate reasons for their actions. My research into the House of Death have made a very lasting impression that this is not a house one wants to cross as they make the Death Eaters look like amateurs. At least with the Death Eaters, you would eventually get a release from the pain in the form of death.

The last time the House of Death walked the Earth was during ancient times during a time of great evil. Has our world fallen so far that they have been forced to return to the mortal plane to once again cleanse our world of evil? I'd be willing to bet that if you asked Harry Potter that question, the question would be a resounding yes. For someone so young to choose death over life speaks horribly of our society if someone we once held in such high regard was failed so miserably.

My condolences go out to the people who surrounded and supported him at the end. I only wish that there had been more people to stand up for him like these good people did and maybe the life of an incredible young man would not have been wasted. For those of you who added to his pain, I'd imagine you can expect a visit soon.

...

As Tom Riddle, aka Lord Voldemort, finished the article, a cold chill ran down his spine. He thought back to his horcruxes and knew he was beyond Death's reach in a normal situation. But if death was walking the Earth once again, what did that mean for him? He also knew that as one of the antagonists of Harry's life, he could expect a visit from these two travelers from beyond. He then did what every normal dark lord has done in the past when he felt threatened. He summoned his followers to him to act as a level of protection against these visitors. The one thing he was confident in was the steps he had taken to hide his anchors. His arrogance would be his undoing as he alone was privy to this knowledge.
