Chapter 66 - 66- Phoenix and consequences (part 2)

Name:Harry Potter But AU??? Author:DAFR
Harry's POV

"Oops? That's what you say after putting your twin brother in the hospital with shattered ribs?" Dumbledore looked really upset, something that would make most kids scared, hell, it would make most magical a.d.u.l.ts scared, luckily, Harry was neither.

"He's not my twin brother."

"This is the answer you give me?!"

"I won't give you anything else until my head of house is here, something I have right to have, as stated by the official rulebook."

Dumbledore looked even more upset, and Harry could feel him trying once more to get into his head, only to stop before the trap, then he did a quick Patronus, which told Harry he was faking it, and told it to call the potion professor back to the office.

After a couple of seconds of silence, Harry decided to use the time he had with the headmaster alone to try to understand what kind of Dumbledore was he dealing with.

Is it the senile one, who try to do good, but keeps failing.

The greater good one- who has a plan to the future, and would do everything to accomplish it.

Or maybe just a real dark lord in disguise, whose plan to make himself the ruler of the world.

After recalling all the FanFiction he could, if there was one person Harry was terrified of, it was Dumbledore.

"So, Professor, While we are waiting for my head of house, would you mind if I ask you a couple of questions?"

His eyes twinkled like crazy

"Well Harry, Let's make a deal, we each ask the other person two questions, how about it?"

It took Harry a second to understand what Dumbledore's angle in this, he made it a game of truths and lies and as a politician and educator he is great in catching people who lie to him.

"Deal. You ask the first question."

"Fair enough." Dumbledore chackeled. "Where did you learn Occlumency?"

'So that's what he wanted to know'

"In school, sir."

Harry did his best not to laugh when he saw the man's eyes lose their sparkle as he lost the other question

"I meant who taught you."

"So ask that as your next question, sir. But now it is my turn."

Sparkles went back on in full force

"Ask away"

Harry was going to ask the question that would help him unearth if the man was just senile.

"When you gave Gryffindor the points in last year's ending feast, did you do it as a way to endear yourself to the golden group, or as a way to make Slytherin hate you and Marcus?"

If Harry wasn't paying attention, he wouldn't have noticed the sparkle in the headmaster's eyes grew a little bit.

"Non of the above, dear boy. I was just giving the students the points they deserved."

'So not senile, if he was, he would understand his mistake and his eyes wouldn't sparkle when he is confronted with his mistake.

"So, who taught you Occlumency?"

Harry didn't plan on lying on this question.

"Daphne Greengrass."

As he didn't care about wether the old man was a dark lord or not, knowing ether way he is an enemy, he decided to use this opportunity to ask the one question about Phoenixes that can help him to study them.

"How did you get yourself a Phoenix?"

It looked like this question surprised him, but it could be because he used his Occlumency to look surprised.

"Well Harry, it is a hard piece of magic that I found in Egypt, you take..."

What ever he was about to say stoped as the door opened and Professor Snape walked in.

"We would have to stop here, and go back to the reason we are in the office.

Mr. Peverel, please tell us why did you hit two of your schoolmates?"

"As I told the previous headmasters, they threw the first punch, it was self defense."

"Were you also hit?"

"No, I dodged."

"So why attack them? And why so harshly?"

"To make sure it didn't escalate, you see, if I only dodged they would have kept attacking."

It was at this point that the potion's master intervened.

"There you go, headmaster. It was self defense, they should be punished for throwing the first punch while being four on one, not mr. Peverel, we should give them another two months detention."

"Are you seriously suggesting, Severus, that the two who were beat up so badly that they need to spend the rest of the vacation in the hospital wing would be punished? Not to mention the other four children who were present told he started it." Dumbledore sounded outrageous and as Harry had better things to do in his time then listen to them arguing and going to detentions, he quickly said "don't you have a way to see memories without going into my head? As I am not going to put down the barriers Daphne taught me."

Snape's eyes got a bit of their hardness removed.

"Yes there is, but it isn't safe for young children."

"How about a magical oath?"

"Sure."

"I, Harry DJ Peverel, swear on my magic that I didn't threw the first punch today outside the headmaster's office. So Mote It Be.

Lumus"

When a bright light came out of the wand, the headmaster Just sigh and said "You can't be punished about the self defense, but we can punish you about the harshness you dealt with them by taking the privilege to go to Hogsmeade next year."

Putting a sad and angry face he said "what about them? They attacked first!"

"As they are in the hospital wing, I believe it is enough of a punishment."

Walking out side of the office, Harry felt the day couldn't get any better.

He made the golden group be in trouble, got on professor Snape's good side and even crucked Marcus ribs and smashed Ron's testicles. Now, if he could just get a way to secure blood from Hermione while she still half a cat, it would truly be perfect
