I own nothing except the idea for the story. Harry Potter belongs to JK Rowling. I just like to play with the characters.

Chapter one

Harry Potter's anger kept simmering, he knew eventually it would explode from him, so he knew what he was going to do. He could not believe the responses to his letters, his so called friends saying they were busy but couldn't say more, Sirius saying to behave, as if Sirius would if he had been in the same position. Well, as far as Harry was concerned he wanted nothing to do with them anymore and they would find out just what ignoring him would mean.

Harry knew it was Dumbledore's fault, first sending him back to the Dursley's when he was injured, he was an emotional wreck after seeing Cedric murdered, and his nightmares were worse than ever now Voldemort had returned. Harry couldn't decide whether Albus Dumbledore had a reason for doing this or if he was just plain stupid. Harry finally decided that the great and powerful Dumbledore was an idiot.

Harry turned when he heard the door knob to his bedroom rattle, 'Fuck off,' Harry turned back to staring out the window, but he knew whoever it was would have the door open in a matter of minutes.

'Harry,' Remus said as he stepped into the room, he's eyebrows rose when Harry never acknowledged him, 'Harry.'

'I thought I told you to fuck off.'

Remus was surprised at the response, 'We explained in our letter we were here to pick you up.'

'I didn't read it, I decided it's not worth my time to listen to anything you lot have to say anymore,' Harry clenched his fist, he had to stay quiet, he knew if he kept responding that he would lose it.

'We have to go, there have been sightings of death eaters in the area. We're taking brooms as we can't trust anyone at the ministry.'

Harry growled angrily, he flicked his wand, his trunk shrunk. He ignored Remus who seemed surprise he was using magic. Harry put the trunk in his pocket then held out his arm to Hedwig, he gave her a nuzzle then opened the window with another flick of his wand. He watched her fly away then grabbed his broom. It was right then he decided to shock the order.

'Catch me if you can,' Harry jumped on his broom and took off out the window.

'Damn,' Remus raced downstairs, 'He flew out the window, but he's angry, I would stay back.'

'We all knew he would be, it was wrong to send him back here then keep him in the dark,' Mad-eye said.

'He isn't completely uniformed; there were a lot of copies of the Daily Prophet in the room. Let's go and hope we find him.'

Harry followed Hedwig, he knew his owl would lead him in the right direction. So even though he enjoyed being out and free, he couldn't stay this way for long, it was dangerous. That didn't mean Harry was going to cooperate with Dumbledore or anyone else, it just meant he would be listening to what was going on. He didn't care if he wasn't supposed to know anything, he would find out, one way or another. Voldemort wanted him dead and if he was involved in any way with any of snake face's plans then he wanted to know about it.

Harry followed Hedwig into a dive, she landed in a tree that sat in a small park across from some houses. Harry landed, shrunk his broom stuck that in his pocket then leant against the fence with his arms folded.

'How long do you think it will take them to realise I'm here, or will they believe I disappeared girl?' Harry smiled as his owl hooted happily, 'So we wait, but you can go in if you want, get some rest.'

Hedwig flew down onto Harry's shoulder, nuzzled him then flew towards the house. Harry watched as his owl seemed to disappear, so he knew there was some type of wards or charms around the place he was supposed to stay at.

It took another hour before a group of five people flew down to stand in the street. They all turned to see Harry standing casually against the fence. He gazed at everyone with a cold look but otherwise never moved.

'Read this so you can see the place, but not out loud.'

'Why should I trust that? Last time I saw Mad-eye Moody he was a death eater in disguise, one that tried to kill me.'

'You can trust me.'

'I don't trust you, I don't trust anyone, not anymore,' Harry glared at Remus but took the note. Once he read it he watch the house appear. Harry strolled forward and wrenched open the door, he side stepped Sirius and Molly before heading towards a room with a light. He found a sitting room so he lay down, one of his hands went under his head, the others all followed him in.

'Harry, mate,' Sirius said cautiously, but he received no answer, 'Look, we had to be careful,' again Harry received no answer.

'Apart from the magic Harry used to save himself from the dementors, he used it again while I was there. I'll go inform Albus there might be more problems.'

'Harry, you know you can't use magic outside of school,' Molly scolded.

Harry flicked his wand and the fireplace burst into flames, then he put his hand inside his pocket, pulled out a flask and took a drink.

'Is that alcohol?' Molly asked in a high pitched squeak.

'Harry,' Sirius sighed, 'we know you're angry, there was nothing we could do, now stop this right now.'

The only response was Harry taking another drink. Footsteps came closer then moved into the room.

'Harry, thank god you're here,' Hermione raced over but Harry didn't respond or look at her, 'Harry, what's wrong?'

'He isn't talking to any of us,' Sirius sighed again.

'Harry mate, Dumbledore told us not to say anything,' Ron said cautiously.

Harry took another drink then flicked his wand making the room dark, 'Harry, you're already having to face a hearing for using magic,' Hermione said.

Harry flicked his wand again making the fireplace go dark, he took another drink. Hedwig flew down and landed on his chest.

'Hey girl, won't some scotch,' Harry chuckled as the owl hooted twice, shaking it's head, 'I suppose it would not be a nice sight to see an owl drunk, but it's fun,' Harry gave the owl a pat then took another drink.

'Give that to me,' Hermione said in her prissy voice.

'Touch it and feel pain,' Harry growled angrily. He saw Hermione hesitate then moved forward, her arm outstretched, Harry flicked his wand, Hermione screamed as her hand was cut open, 'I did warn you,' Harry took another drink.

Molly bustled Hermione out of the room to fix her hand, Ron stood at the door staring down at his friend.

'Do you think he will ever forgive us?' Ron whispered.

'No, now fuck off,' Harry growled, then took another drink.

Sirius gestured with his head for everyone to leave the room, 'I told Albus you should not have been sent there,' Sirius sighed when Harry didn't answer, just kept patting his owl, 'I can't believe how childish you're being.'

'Fuck off,' Harry growled.

'Fine, if that's the way you want it, we'll leave you alone.'

'About fucking time,' Harry waited until Sirius left then flicked his wand making the door slam, 'We're going to have some fun girl,' Harry chuckled as Hedwig hooted before flying out the window.

When Harry received word that he had to face a hearing for using magic outside of school, he decided since he was already in trouble he would continue to use magic. He had snuck out of Privet drive using his cloak and went to his vault where he took a heap of galleons out along with two long boxes. He had the gold galleons changed into muggle money then headed in to London.

Harry bought a heap of new clothes, shoes then saw an eye specialist so he could get some contact lenses. After having his eyes tested he was told to pick up his contact lenses in a week, Harry ordered a dozen pairs. When he finished in that shop he went to buy a portable cd player and a heap of cd's, then started to work on how to make the player work in a place where magic was used. He remembered when Hermione had told him that nothing electrical could work at Hogwarts because of magic. So Harry worked on charming the batteries. It took a couple of weeks but Harry was able to get his cd playing to work around magic. He bought himself a laptop computer and even though Harry didn't know much about electronics, he studied it until he was able to work on the built in power supply to stay charged at all times and again work around magic. Being stuck at Privet drive gave him time to study everything he could.

Harry knew it was petty, but he threw out all his quills, ink and parchment, then he bought normal notebooks and pens. It was his protest about how far behind the magical world was to the muggle world. He also was planning one more thing but that wouldn't be for another couple of weeks. Now was the time to annoy everyone at the headquarters of the order of the phoenix.
