The Betrayal
Harryâs *Point of View*
âDonât worry Percival, Iâm not really friends with Potter, Iâm just pretendingâ said a voice.
My so-called best friend, Ronald was discussing some very shady business with two of his siblings in the boys dormitory. Â Unbeknownst to Ronald, I was hiding in the wardrobe, under my invisibility cloak.
I wanted to leap out of there and surprise them, but my instincts told me not to. Â At least, not yet anyway, so I stayed put, and put my hand over my mouth so that I wouldnât give away my advantageous location. I listened intently.
âGood.â said Percival
âFather wants you to encourage Ginevra to get close to the idiotic brat. Â You see, he wantâs Potterâs fortune. Â The only way he is going to get it is if Ginevra marries the little shit.â he concluded. Â
âWHAT?â Ginevra shrieked.
âGin, donât worry. Â All you have to do is persuade him to marry you, knock you up, leave you and the child everything in his will and then heâll have a âQuidditch accidentâ and die and youâll get his money and we can live like kings!â
I heard Ginevra take a deep breath and then she shrieked
âI WONâT DO IT I WONâT I WONâT! I DONâT WANT TO BE LADY POTTER I DONâT WANT TO BE LADY POTTER I WONâT I WONâT DO IT I WONâT I WONâT!â
I chose that moment to leap silently out of the wardrobe, punched Percival in the nose, kicked Ronald as hard as I could in the ânards, before I turned to Ginevra and said âI WOULDNâT MARRY A FILTHY DIRTY DISGUSTING BRUTAL BOTTOM-FEEDING TRASHBAG HOOOOOOOO LIKE YOU IF YOU WERE THE LAST WITCH⌠NO THE LAST WOMAN ON EARTH.â Ginevra looked appropriately scandalised. Someone hissed âNOWâ and the âboyâs dormitoryâ vanished and all of a sudden I was in The Great Hall at dinnertime.  Several hundred stunned faces took in the scene before them.
âBESIDES WHICH IâM GAY. Â I AM COURTING SOMEONE AND I AM VERY HAPPY, AND BY THE WAY GINEVRA, YOU CAN TELL ARTHUR AND MOLLY THAT HARRY POTTER IS ON TO THEM AND THEY WILL GET THEIRS IN DUE TIME.â I roared. Â I didnât care if The entire Great Hall or the entire wizard world heard me. Â I would not tolerate being treated like a puppet anymore. âArthur isnât our fatherâ said Percival in a muffled voice, he was trying unsuccessfully to stem the flow of blood from his nose where I hit him.
âRonald, Ginevra and I are Dumbledoreâs kidsâ âCongratulations Percival, you have just succeeded in making my wrath a hundred thousand times worse! I am going to deal with this and neither of your parental units will know what hit them!â
âWhat are you going to do?â Percival whimpered,
âAs if Iâd tell YOU thatâ I spat venomously. Â
Hermione had heard everything.  She came over to me and said âHarry, Iâm afraid it gets worse⌠Dumbledore paid the three of them to befriend us, Draco told me that this morning and Fred and George verified it.  and thatâs not all, Harry sit down, I am about to drop a bombshellâ
âNot here, letâs go and see Severus. Â You can tell us both at the same time.â
âOK, good ideaâ
We got up⌠I kicked Ronald in the nuts again and glared at Dumbledore, âYou rotten old goat, youâll get yours.â I hissed and Hermione and I turned and walked out of The Great Hall and went down to see Severus.
âHarryâ he said âWhatâs the matter?â
âOh nothing⌠except that Ronald betrayed me and Hermione has something worse than that to tell usâ
âLetâs sit downâ Severus suggested and he summoned an elf to bring us refreshments. Â
âOK Hermione, go on, tell usâ
âWell⌠Draco, Fred and George confirmed this earlier⌠Harry, Lily Evans was not your mother.  Dumbledore used the Imperius curse to hoodwink her into believing that she was married to James Potter and was your mother, but she wasnât.  Youâre not an only child either, youâre a twin.  Remus and Sirius are your biological parents and⌠we went to Malfoy Manor and spoke with Lucius and Narcissa.  Draco is your twin brother.  Lucius is infertile because Rodolphus Lestrange hit him with a curse when he was fourteen years old.  It was the Avada Maxima Curse.â
âSo⌠Dudley isnât really my cousin?â âYes he is, youâre just not related to muggles thatâs all.  Dudley is Nymphadora Tonks little brother, he was kidnapped and put into another situation as well.â
âDumbledore?â âDumbledoreâ
I took a moment to attempt to digest that. Â I was absolutely reeling. Â I felt Severus squeeze my shoulder.
âIs my name really Harry Potter?â âNo, itâs Perseus-Orion Black-Lupinâ said Hermione âand Dracoâs real name is Romulus-Xerxes Black-Lupin.â
âoh⌠so my whole worthless life is a total and utter lie?â
âPerseus, this changes nothing between you and Iâ
âAre you sure Sev? You fell for someone who is basically a lieâ
âIt gets worseâ said Hermione âDumbledore did the same thing to me.  Iâm not an only child either.  He stole me from my parents as well⌠and my big sister.  My mother is Professor McGonagall and my father⌠is Tom Marvolo Riddle.  Iâve never even met him.  My sister is⌠or rather was lead to believe that she was Bellatrix Black-Lestrange.  A person that doesnât even exist.  My real name is Natasha-Jane Riddle and my sisterâs name is Persephone Rose Riddle.  Tom Riddle is the real Headmaster of Hogwarts.â
âWhere is your father?â I asked âPerseus I have a bombshell of my own to drop on you. Â Tom Riddle is the real Headmaster of Hogwarts. He raised me. Â He didnât adopt me â but he raised me after my bastard muggle father Tobias Snape murdered my mother Eileen Prince in front of me and Lily, he was sent to jail for a really long time. He raised Lucius as well. Â Heâs Luciusâs godfather.â Â
The Floo rang, snapping us all out of our reverie. Â It was Mrs Malfoy.
âCissy? whatâs the matter? Come throughâ
âLucius is not himself Severus and I am worried.â âHow can we help?â
âWe need to find Tomâ âIâm already on thatâ said a voice from the doorâ
âMetatron?â âYes Severus itâs me.â
âIs Tom OK?â âYes heâs fine, Serendipity is helping him explain everything to Minerva and to fix things with her.â
âFind Draco, Fred and George, then I need you to bring Lucius throughâ
âOKâ
âWhat about revenge?â âDonât worry Perse. Weâll get Dumbledore.â Â
Metatron gathered everyone in Sevâs living room with a flick of his hand.
âWe all know the truth now so itâs revenge timeâ
âLetâs form our own Mafiaâ
âOK Perseâ
âI WANT PUBLIC REVENGEâ
âYes, so do Iâ said Romulus âLetâs hit Dumbledore where it hurts the most⌠his vaults at Gringotts!â
âFunny, I thought I heard him groan when I kicked his son Ronald in the nuts earlier tonightâ I said with a sly grin. Â
âYou kicked Ronald in the nuts?â asked Lucius
âYes. Â He deserved it too.â I concluded âHell, I should probably have aimed a crucio down there as well but oh wellâ
âDamn I wish Rodolphus Lestrange hadnât been kissed the day after he attacked me. Â Iâd have loved some revengeâ âI kicked him in the nuts after you were taken to the Infirmaryâ Narcissa admitted.
âThatâs my witch!â
All of the males in the room, except for Metatron winced when Narcissa admitted to that.
âWhat?â said Metatron âIâm as anatomically impaired as a Ken Doll.â
âNext time I see Dumbledore Iâm going to kick him there while wearing a steel toe-capped boot!â said Lucius
Everyone including Metatron shuddered at that!â
âRight⌠itâs show time⌠come on follow my lead.  I am forming my own mafiaâ
âLetâs go and give Dumbledore his comeuppance!â
We went upstairs. Â Arthur was waiting for us. Â He was furious. Â
âMolly just told me every little thing that sheâs done.  Iâve had her arrested andâŚâ He collapsed, foaming at the mouth and twitching.
Severus sprang to action, took a phial of purple potion out of his pocket, added some of Arthurâs blood to it and cast a Timer charm. Â After three minutes the potion turned a sickly yellow colour.
âHeâs been poisonedâ said Sev. Â he conjured a stretcher and he and Lucius took Arthur to St Mungoâs but it was too late. Â Arthur died not long after arriving at the hospital. Â Lucius and Severus came back just as Sirius and Remus arrived at Hogwarts. Â I had contacted them. Â They performed a blood adoption ceremony, adopting Arthurâs four boys â Charlie, Bill, Fred and George. Â Molly screamed and yelled but was ignored
âYOU ABUSED THOSE BOYS MOLLY PREWETT! YOU IGNORED THEM. YOU TREATED THEM LIKE A BURDENâ Sirius yelled âTHEY ARE NO LONGER YOURS.â
âYouâre just in time Iâm about to take care of the goat problemâ I told Remus âBy forming my own mafiaâ
âI knew letting you watch The Godfather was a bad idea Harryâ he said. I ignored him.
âDumbledore isnât going to know what has hit himâ
Several hours later, Severus and I were cuddling on the couch, Sirius and Remus were sitting cuddling on the other couch. Â A loud shrill scream was heard coming from Dumbledoreâs office. Â I had asked Dobby to leave him a little gift on his bed. Â Obviously he found it.
âWhat did you do?â âOh nothing, I had Dobby leave a horseâs head in Dumbledoreâs bed.â
Everyone gasped and Severus said,
âRemind me never to cross you Perse" Â
The next morning, As I entered the Great Hall, Dumbledore stood up.
âIf itâs a war you want Mr Potterâ he sneered,
âIt is a war you shall have.â
I walked right up to him and slapped him right across his wrinkled old face as hard as I could. âMY NAME IS NOT HARRY POTTER YOU EVIL OLD GOAT! THE HORSEâS HEAD WAS JUST THE BEGINNING OF MY REVENGE⌠I AM GOING TO WREAK A TERRIBLE VENGEANCE UPON YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.  YOU WILL SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONSâ
I clicked my fingers and Lucius gave him The Kiss of Death before I clicked my fingers again and the Aurors flooded in led by Amelia Bones.
âAlbus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledore, you are under arrest for embezzlement, fraud, kidnapping, endangerment of minors and impersonating a ministry appointed officialâ she said.
All kinds of merry hell broke looseâŚ
The end, for now. Feel free to review just remember I was a special needs kid who went to CATHOLIC MAINSTREAM school so Iâm not educated
