Chapter 161 - 161- being a friend all about

Name:Harry Potter But AU??? Author:DAFR
FRED'S POV

If seeing Harry hurt and angry was shocking, seeing him cry was even worse.

It wasn't just the fact that his emotions were displayed in all their glory, it was the fact he just didn't seem to stop.

Fred was never one to comport anyone directly, nor was George for that matter.

Usually, when things got rough they would disappear to plot together a plan to make sure the person knew they cared by making him laugh with some pranks, but with one look to Luna and then to George as Harry cried with Luna hugging him he knew both of them reached to the same conclusion- if they disappeared this time before fixing things they would never have the chance to.

And it wouldn't just be Harry that they would lose, they would also lose Luna.

So the four of them sat there, the room has provided a couch, and waited for Harry's grand emotional burst to calm down.

It took a while, but eventually it did.

When he stopped crying he seemed to want to leave, but with small nudging Luna did, he finally started telling them his story.

He told them about the darkness he lived in for four years, only let out for bathroom, food and whenever there was needed helper.

He told them about his escape, his lying to the police officer and moved to the orphanage, he told them about getting adopted, and the times mom and dad seemed to slip out of his mouth.

He then reached the party They were all waiting for, James Potter arriving with the letter, first trip to Diagon alley, the week of living with the Potter family, the end of it, and his parents' death.

He wasn't a talented story teller, he kept telling unrelated bits about everything, and Fred knew there was something he wasn't telling.

Yet there was one thing that kept bothering him.

"Why do you think it was Dumbledore?"

"It might not be Dumbledore himself, but the Potter family know about it, I saw the weird glint in Lily Potter's eyes when she said goodbye that day, it was one of knowledge of what's to come. Not to mention the kill was magical."

"But if it's not Dumbledore..." his twin started to say but Harry didn't let him finish.

"You just can't see it, you grew on tales about him, about the 'boy who lived', you don't know what he is capable to do to get what he wants! But Luna does, tell them about Pettigtrew!"

They knew about Sirius Black innocent and Peter Pettigtrew being a Death Eater and faking his own death, how could they not, with their brother telling one more of his adventures around the house this summer to all those that would listen.

When they first heard it they were horrified, their little brother spent three years carrying a Death Eater and their older brother ten.

But the story Luna started telling was different, and in some parts worse.

True, they felt relived their brothers didn't carry a Death Eater, but to find out the headmaster orchestrated the entire affair of the 1981 Halloween night, not to mention knowingly condemned an innocent man to Azkaban.

"But he has no reason to want your parents death..." Even in his mind it sounded weak, if what Pettigrew said is true, and it should be as he is the only one that seemed able to tell what happened that night, then both children survived the night, and Marcus isn't the only boy who lived, not to mention the entire 'leaving Harry to lived with muggles didn't made any sense'.

"Why? Because I used to be Voldemort's horcrux!" Harry spat, it sounded very dramatic, especially with Luna's breathing in sharply, if only Fred knew what horcrux is.

"What is a horcrux?" Well, he seemed not to be the only one not in the know.

"A horcrux is a part of the soul a person ripped apart and put in an object to live forever." Luna said with tears in her eyes

Harry then started explaining about how hard destroying a horcrux is, and that it is pretty much impossible destroying it without destroying the object.

"Wait, you said are a horcrux." His twin brother said with eyes wild open.

An understanding fell upon Fred, which made him feel as if he is holding the sky itself, only for Harry to say "No, I said I were a horcrux, I managed to remove it last month."

The three of them breathed out in relief.

"Wait, but you just said it is impossible to destroy a horcrux without destroying the object."

"And it is, I didn't destroy it, I only removed it, even then, it usually undoable but there was one difference in this situation- my body wasn't prepared to become a horcrux." Harry then started talking about technical differences about a prepared host and unprepared one.

Fred honestly couldn't care less, but he did the Maximus to listen.

After all, that's what being a friend all about.

GEORGE'S POV

When Harry finished explaining all about horcruxes George could tell he has calmed down, which meant they can return to the subject in question.

"So, to wrap things up, the headmaster, knowing prophecy, convinced Pettigrew to sell out his friends.

Peter, trying to save them told the dark lord he wants to kill them himself as a reward, to which the dark lord agreed to do and instead of killing the Potters knocked them out.

For some reason none of the killing curses worked, yet the second one was sent back to Tommy which was supposed to kill him but instead just made his soul to get out of his body.

The soul, which was already super by previous murder went to two different directions, one escaped and tries to return to power and the other one settled inside your lightning curse.

Dumbledore, who thought the only way to kill the soul piece is to kill you and decided the best way is to make you kiil yourself, convinced the Potter family Marcus is the chosen one and that they should send you to Lilly's abusive sister so they can focus on him, from where you escaped, got adopted, and then when Dumbledore and the Potter family found out you were happy with your new family and two weeks later your parants were dead.

Oh, and you managed to do the impossible and get the soul piece out without dying."

"Yes, that's pretty much it."

"Anything else?"

"Not that I feel important."

'Translation: I don't want to.'

"Well, I can't seem to think of something we can say that would convince you to trust our father, he is Dumbledore's man and by this point of time the headmaster has caused your life more damage then Tommy." George said and raised his hand to stop Fred from saying whatever he was about to say.

"No Fred, think about it, if someone killed mom and dad, would you be willing to work with anyone that killed them?" That shut whatever Fred was about to say.

"I'm sorry, but I really can't." Harry said as he looked at his hands with his head down.

"I might have an idea that can make everyone happy." It was Luna who said it, making everyone look at her hopeful.

"Your father doesn't really want to work under you, nor do you want him to, what all of you actually want is for him to do what he dreamed of doing- inventing things for a living. Instead of making him a worker of our business, let's make another.

It's something you taught me Harry, remember? A company making side companies under them!"

Harry's head shot up.

"That's a great idea Luna!" Fred said. "We now have enough money to open a different company, one that will be used for things that are less 'fun' and more life style."

"You could have your father create a magical TV, and video cameras, stuff like that and people who can't afford tickets to quidditch games can pay to watch them at a cheaper prices in a gathering locations!"

"We might even convince mom to make food which we would sell!"

"Or you know, hire someone as a cook"

"Or that."

"WE CAN HAVE TRULY MAGICAL DIESNY MOVIES"

They all looked at Luna who squealed in excitement.

"And Star Wars!"

The argument that started in the day turned into a long discussion into the night.
