They arrive a few minutes later in the minister's office. He turns towards them and smiles, but when he catches one look at their faces the smile drops.
"We want you to come with us and look at what those muggles did to Potter," Growls Snape.
"What do you mean?" Asks the minister.
They just motion for him to follow them. The minister walks around the desk and walks to leave with the trio back to Hogwarts. They arrive in the infirmary a few minutes later. They walk towards a sectioned off area and the minister gasps when he sees the boy. He turns to look at the others with questions in eyes. They nod their heads.
Albus points his wand at Harry's head and mutter's a spell. Suddenly a gray misty screen appears and the three adults watch the boy's life. They are shocked and appalled at the scenes before them. A gasp from behind them lets them know that Poppy is watching with them. Albus pulls his wand away from Harry's head the moment they see his last memory. The minister stalks to the fireplace and leaves. Severus, Minerva, and Albus rush after him. They are just getting out of Mrs. Figg's door when they see him blow the door to the Dursleys' home away. They run after him.
He is pacing outside of Harry's room when they arrive. They walk back downstairs and take a seat in the living room.
"What are we going to do about those 'things' upstairs?" Asks Minerva.
"Well, I think I might have an idea. Why don't we let them feel everything they did to Potter." Whispers Snape.
"You mean use the pain reversal spell on them, but couldn't that kill them?" Asks the minister.
"Maybe, but I personally think they deserve it. How could they be so mean to their nephew?" Snarls Minerva.
They other three looked shocked at her outburst. Severus starts to grin. They look to Albus and he nods his head. They walk back into the bedroom and Severus conjures four chairs in front of the bed. He makes the other furniture in the room disappear. He levitates the Dursleys to where the bed once was. Severus points his wand at Dudley, Minerva at Petunia, and Albus at Vernon. They whisper the curse and watch as the Dursleys shake and silently scream.
The four wizards sit and wait for the spell to finish. Petunia is the first to finish three hours later. Dudley quits two hour later. Vernon is under the spell for twenty-four hours. They clean the muggles up and levitate them. They go back to Mrs. Figg's home and floo back to the ministry. Once there they are met by three Aurors.
"What happened here? Who are they?" Ask one of the Aurors pointing towards the Dursleys.
"Oh that is the muggles that Harry Potter lives with. When one of his professors went to check on him, the oldest male was beating him." Replies the minister.
The three Aurors look shocked that someone could do that to the boy who lived. They look to the minister to tell them what to do. He waves his hand towards the three before he said, "I want these three sent directly to a cell. There will be a trial as soon as Mr. Potter awakes. I don't want anyone but their lawyer in the same room as them do you understand me."
The three Aurors shake their heads and levitate the muggles away.
"Are you sure it is wise to subject Potter to a trial. You don't think it will humiliate him?" Asks Snape.
The three look at the man shocked. They aren't sure they even heard that right.
"I thought you didn't like Harry, Severus." Replies Albus, a faint twinkle in his eyes.
"I don't like Potter. I just don't like to think of any child going through that. I still think he's as arrogant as his father." Growls Snape. He stalks away so the others can't see the tears in his eyes. He walks to the fireplace and floos back the Hogwarts infirmary.
The others watch the potions master with smiles on their face. They stand their talking, not knowing that a small rat with a silver hand was listening to everything that was being said. The rat watches from the shadows as the three discuss what to do with the Harry. He listens for a few minutes before he scampers out the door. He runs into the shadows and transforms back into his human form. He apparates back to his master.
Voldemort is sitting on his throne when suddenly Wormtail appears before him.
"My ever faithful Wormtail, what news do you bring me from the ministry?"
"Master, they have Potter's muggle relatives in a cell. They were abusive to him. They beat and starved him. They are going on trial as soon as Potter awakes. I don't know where they have him hidden." Wormtail whispers,then he bends down and kisses his Master's robe. He stumbles a few feet a way still bowed over.
Voldemort starts to laugh and his eyes light up. He claps his hands together and a long silver chain appears in front of Wormtail. As Wormtail reaches for it with his silver hand, Voldemort speaks.
"Take this portkey to the muggles. I'll call for my loyal subjects. Did you see Severus with the Headmaster?"
Wormtail shook his head no, because unbeknownst to them he arrived right after the potion master left.
"Good, I will not be calling him here. I know that he will be at Hogwarts, but we can't take him away from Potter just yet. Go, and be quick. You know the punishment if you fail."
Wormtail ran out of the room and disappeared only to reappear outside of the ministry. He transforms back into his rat form and grabs the chain with his teeth. He runs to the holding cells and finds the one the Dursleys are in. He sneaks in. He transforms back into his human form.
"I have brought a way for you to get out of here. If you will each grab the chain in my hands I will transport us to somewhere safe."
The Dursleys look at him for a minute before Vernon says, "Why should we trust you? You're a freak, just like the boy."
"Because I'm the only way you can get out, unless you want to go to prison and relive the pain of what you did to Potter everyday."
That was the only thing they needed to hear. They eagerly reach for the chain and grab it with a hand. Wormtail almost grins before he activates the portkey. They appear in the middle of a circle of men with black robes and white masks on. In front of them is a man like creature with red glowing eyes.
- - - - - - - - - - back in the infirmary - - - - - - - - - -
Snape is sitting beside Harry's bed holding his hand. Tears are running silently down his face.
'I can't believe that everything I ever thought about his life was wrong. I can see clearly he wasn't pampered like his father. He's nothing like his father.'
"I'm so sorry, Harry. I can never make up to you how awful I've been to you. I always thought you were like your father, but your not. I'm sorry."
He starts to cry a little bit harder when suddenly Harry starts to scream and thrash. Severus grabs him and tries to hold him down. Severus yells for Poppy.
- - - - - Harry's vision & what happens to the Dursleys - - - - -
Petunia is trying to hide Dudley behind her. Vernon's face is starting to go purple, he is so mad. Voldemort just starts to chuckle.
"Issssss thesssssse the mugglesss that Harry Potter livessss with, Wormtail?"
Wormtail nods his head yes and bows to kiss the hem of the other man's robes. He quickly slinks away to join the others in the circle. Voldemort laughs at the muggles.
"I thought you were going to set us free." Shouted Vernon. Voldemort laughs even harder.
"Why would I set you free? Did Wormtail tell you he would set you free or ask if you wanted to stay there?"
Vernon starts to get even angrier and he shouts, "When I get my hands on that FREAK, he will wish he died right along with his freaky parents." He turns to point his finger at every wizard and witch there.
"You are all FREAKS." He is getting himself so worked up that he forgets himself and starts telling what he's done to Harry. "I'm going to do the same things to you when I get my hands on you." He yells at Voldemort.
Voldemort raises his wand and points it at Vernon before saying, "Crucio." Vernon falls to the ground shaking and screaming in pain. The curse is held on him for ten minutes, at which time Vernon's heart burst.
Petunia starts to scream and Dudley starts wailing for his father. They are silenced with a hex. Voldemort looks at them with glee in his eyes.
"Lucius, you Crabbe and Goyle can kill these two however you like. After they are dead, take them back to the ministry. Place them on the ground behind the message 'only I will kill Potter' then throw up the dark mark. Wormtail you stay in rat form and tell me what happens after everyone else leaves."
The three death eaters come forward and point their wands at the two. Lucius has his wand pointed towards Petunia while Crabbe and Goyle have their wands pointed at Dudley. They all three say "Crucio" at the same time. The two muggles scream and claw at their bodies trying to make the pain stop. Dudley only lasts a few minutes before his heart bursts. Bloods starts to dribble out of his mouth, nose, eyes and ears.
Petunia is under the curse for another fifteen minutes before Lucius kills her with the killing curse. Voldemort smiles. The three deatheaters bow to him and levitate the three bodies. They follow Wormtail out the door and disappear with a slight pop. They reappear in front of the Ministry of Magic. Wormtail changes into his rat form as the others arrange the muggles on the ground. In front of the muggles a message is burned into the ground . Lucius nods to the other two and they disappear and Lucius throws the dark mark into the air and disappears.
-Meanwhile inside the Ministry -
Albus, Minerva and the minister have walked to his office to talk in private. They talk for almost forty minutes when an alarm sounds. They rush to the lobby to see Tonks running towards them.
"Sir, the bodies of the Dursleys were just found outside on the ground dead and the Dark Mark floating in the air. There is also a message burned in the ground I think you three should read it."
They rushed outside and gasped when they read the message. They turn to the minister.
"Minerva and I are going to go back to Hogwarts and see how Harry is. We'll tell him about his family." States Albus.
"Well I'll come by tomorrow to see how he is." Replies the minister.
"Tell Molly I'll get in touch with her in a few days and we'll finish planning Harry's surprise party. Bye Arthur." Minerva says.
With that said Albus and Minerva walked back in and flooed back to Hogwarts.
