章節 41: A Sibling Confrontation
Adrian was in Dumbledore's office, he had eaten the offered lemon drop and began telling Dumbledore about what had just happened.
"Then he flashes this bright light from his wand and disappears!" Adrian neared the end of his story "Hagrid fires a shot but it misses him and hits a random tree!"
"Hmm" Dumbledore frowned "this man, he had yellow eyes?"
"Yes sir"
"You're absolutely certain?"
"Definitely" Adrian replied "he had yellow eyes, a black bandanna and he had a black hood over his head"
"Did you say a black hood?" Dumbledore interrupted
"Yes sir, is that important?"
"No, or at least I do not believe so" Dumbledore noticed that the man he saw matched the description perfectly, apart from the colour of the hood. But it didn't really matter that much, it made sense for a person to not wear the same thing all the time, it's why he wore his purple robes today instead of his blue ones. "Did the man say anything of importance to you?"
"No" Adrian shook his head "at least I don't think so" Dumbledore looked into Aiden's mind and quickly viewed the encounter
"Hmm, very well" Dumbledore said once he had left the boy's mind "I must say, you were very brave in the way that you handled the situation"
"Thank you sir!" Adrian beamed
"You're most welcome" Dumbledore chuckled "now, I'm sure you have other things to do. Feel free to come back and talk to me if you feel you need to do so"
"Yes sir" Adrian took the intended dismissal and left.
Dumbledore wondered about this masked man, he was a new element and had to be considered. Dumbledore didn't know much about him, except for five things. His general appearance, he's a magic user, he likes to use hand to hand combat, he's attacked Quirrell twice and he likely knows about Quirrell working for Voldemort.
Dumbledore knew that Quirrell was working for Voldemort, he was quite amused by the fact that Quirrell of all people thought he could pull one over on the great Albus Dumbledore. He allowed Quirrell to stay because he wanted to confirm for sure that Voldemort had returned, plus he wanted to challenge Adrian and see the boy's potential.
This new person could be dangerous to his plans and he didn't like that, he needed to work out who it was. The muggle clothing meant a connection to the muggle world so that ruled out a lot of students, he was also someone who likely knew hand to hand combat. Harry Potter was the first name that came into his head thanks to his recent confrontation with Malfoy but the boy was too young and small, he began compiling a list of students from fifth to seventh year. He'd have to look into them and see if any of them had a history involving muggle fighting.
....
Adrian was walking down the corridor, he didn't really have a lesson so he decided to go back to the common room and challenge Ron to another chess match. He had some homework but he'd just get Hermione to do it or him, homework was boring after all and not worth his time.
He was brought out of his thoughts when a hand grabbed him by the back of his collar and violently pulled him, Adrian was taken so fast that he barley registered what happened before he was pulled into an abandoned classroom.
"Harry?" Adrian asked his brother who had just locked the door and put some privacy charms up "What the hell are you doing?!"
"Shut up" Harry turned to his brother "I've heard some interesting rumours, apparently you lot were sent to the forbidden forest yesterday"
"Yeah, what's it to you?"
"Well, ignoring the fact that that is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of" Harry replied "that's not where the rumours end"
"Where are you getting these rumours from?" Adrian asked
"Tracy" Harry answered "she always knows, don't ask how, I still haven't gotten an answer out of her yet. Anyway, I have a couple of questions, the first being did any of you mention me?"
"No" Adrian responded
"Good, you value your life" Harry said "now, apparently you got rescued by someone. Who was it? I've been hearing about ten different rumours, one said that Dumbledore came and rescued you while the another said that Ron Weasley rescued you"
"Why do you want to know?"
"Slytherin, we treat knowledge like money" Harry replied
"Huh?" Adrian had a confused look on his face that looked like it belonged to a dog
"We like to have a lot, now spill, who rescued you?"
"I don't know, I never got his name" Adrian responded
"Then tell me what he looks like"
"Why should I?"
"Because if you don't then I'll make you, you stupid dollop head"
"Dollop head?" Adrian repeated "that's not even a word"
"It's two words" Harry pointed out
"Fine, it is two words but it doesn't mean anything"
"Yes it does, I can explain it in one"
"Oh yeah? Explain it in one word?"
"Dollop head in one word is you" Harry replied "now get on with the story"
"Fine, I'll tell you, you git. This guy came out of nowhere, he was wearing muggle clothing"
"Okay" Harry breathed "nothing wrong with that"
"He had a black hood on his head"
"Nothing wrong with that" Harry said again but this time Adrian noticed that Harry looked a bit uncomfortable
"He also had a black bandana that covered the bottom half of his face"
"Oh shit" Harry whispered, as he resisted the urge to punch something
"And he had yellow eyes" Adrian added.
Adrian had just finished speaking when Harry grabbed him by the collar with both hands and shoved him against a wall. Adrian's hands went to Harry's wrist with the hope of pushing him off but his grip was too strong, Adrian looked at Harry and saw that his brother was a full of anger.
"Did…you say…yellow eyes?" Harry spoke slowly and softly, Adrian barley heard him but managed to get out a slight nod
"Yeah…yellow eyes"
"Shit!" Harry cursed, he let Adrian go and the boy-who-lived dropped to the ground, Harry began pacing around the classroom.
Adrian didn't want to say anything because Harry was looking fairly pissed, so much so that he picked up a chair and tossed it across the room while letting out a string of curses that would've results in at least a month's detention if anyone had heard them.
"Son of a bitch" Harry whispered as he ran his hands through his hair "screw him and send him to hell and burn him twice!" Harry growled
"I…take it that you know him" Adrian slowly stood up
"I know a lot of people, now shush" Harry responded as he put his face into his hands "I need to think and you talking doesn't help, you lower the IQ of the whole room. Forget it, I'll think about this later" Harry made his way to the door and undid all the charms that he put on it.
"Wait, how do you know him?"
"Questions, questions" Harry shook his head "so many questions, would you for once in your life just do as your told and be quiet? I need to go and sleep because if I don't calm down then I am likely to strangle someone at the moment."
"Look, you have to tell me how you know him" Adrian said "who is he?"
"Over his head and stupid" Harry answered "now don't ask too many questions, I have a headache. Goodbye"
"Wait, we have to tell Dumbledore?"
"No, we don't" With that, Harry left.
