Letter to Sirius

November 1994

Chamber of Secrets, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

After vanishing from the ministry, Harry arrived in his room in chamber of secrets.

"Dobby," called Harry.

The enthusiastic house elf appeared with a pop, "Master Harry, called Dobby."

Harry nodded, "Get me something to eat."

"Something good," added Harry with pause.

After the events that transpired in the council hall, Harry felt a sense of burden being lifted off his back.

Till now, he had been holding back, playing push and pull games, especially with Dumbledore.

But today, he had made his stance clear. He had chosen sides, his own side.

Now, he would not need to hold back. It push comes to shove, he had full believe in his magical abilities. With Amelia Bones and Cynus Greengrass and other allies on his side, he had enough arsenal in his storage.

And Minerva's reaction in the hall was almost a certain indication whose side she would be choosing.

While Harry was busy, lost in his thoughts, a sumptuous meal was placed before him.

Dobby bounced, "Master Harry... How is it?"

Harry looked at the 5 house elves standing in front of him and could not help but chuckle. He could only imagine, how much they would have argued over who would prepare his meal?

"It is very tasty," complimented Harry.

Hearing Harry's compliment, all their faces lit up in joy and then they they popped away.

Harry completed his meal and lay on his bed.

"Timsy," he called. The Potter house elf popped in.

"Master Harry," greeted Timsy.

"Has it come out yet?" Asked Harry.

"Yes, master Harry," replied Timsy and with a snap of her fingers, a newspaper appeared in her hand.

She placed the newspaper in front of Harry.

Harry looked at the Daily Prophet. It was a special edition especially published to report the happenings of the ministry.

On the front page was plastered a moving photo of Harry with his wand raised, Dumbledore running towards him and then being smashed on the wall.

Mayhem at the Ministry.

Today was a day marked with unexpected occurrences at the Wizengamot meeting. In what was to have been a Dumbledore trial had turned into complete chaos and mayhem by the end of the meeting.

The first surprise of the day was the sudden presence of Andromeda Tonks nee Black in Wizengamot. She supposedly have left her isolation to act as counsel and representative for Harry Potter.

The second and the most unexpected of surprise came from none other than Harry Potter. In a very shocking move, Harry Potter claimed his seat of 5 Lordship- Lord Potter, Lord Black, Lord Slytherin, Lord Gryffindor and Lord Peverell.

The newspaper then went on to describe all of what happened including how had he robbed Dumbledore of his headmaster position. The heading which had started into somewhat of a neutral reporting, slowly turned into scathing attack on him.

Though he laughed and let it pass, he felt that if he truly wanted to build a favourable image of his own, he must get positive reporting.

Harry after going through the newspaper pulled out an envelope from his coat.

"Timsy," said Harry. "Deliver it."

Understanding what she had to do, Timsy nodded, took the envelope and picked up the newspaper. And then with a pop she was gone away.

November 1994

Unknow Location

When Timsy reappeared, she stood in a dark room with a small lamp flickering at the side. The room was very small in size, with a small bed being the only furniture in the room.

On the bed lay a man with dirty appearance and a starving stomach. He had long hairs which had not been washed in a long time and a overgrown beard.

The moment Timsy appeared, the man very much agile to his condition, turned in a quick motion and lunged at the house elf.

Timsy vanished before the man could reach her and popped in at some distance away.

"Mr. Black," she said, stilling the man. "I am here to deliver a letter from Master Harry Potter."

Sirius whose expression was unreadable said in hoarse voice, "Harry?"

Timsy nodded and placed the newspaper and the envelope on the bed. Before Sirius could ask anything, she popped away.

Although Sirius was suspicious, his eyes caught the front image on the newspaper. His eyes widened at the image and he picked up the newspaper to read what was written in it.

The more Sirius read, the more shocked, he became. Things he had not known came to his light.

By the time he finished reading, he had tears flowing out of his eyes. Even if the newspaper had viciously attacked Harry, how could he not understand what was propaganda and what was reality.

With shaking hands, he tore apart the envelope and opened the letter.

Dear Sirius,

I hope you are doing fine... enough fine to be alive.

Sirius also chuckled a bit at this.

Since you last me, a lot of things have changed here. If you are reading this letter first, then read the newspaper I have sent along with it before reading the letter.

.

I don't know how to begin or how you feel about me having the Black Lordship.

I will explain the excat situation when we meet, I can tell you this that if I did not take up the Lordship, it would have passed to Draco Malfoy.

Sirius sneered at Draco's name. He personally had no such interest in Black Lordship but it came to be claimed by the Malfoys, he would better burn the every last bit of Black legacy.

After reading the newspaper, you must now know what all is going on here.

I am writing this you to tell you to return back. I believe, I have something in mind that can help you to get free.

I am not writing too much in this letter. When we will meet, we will talk. Till then, I have arranged a safe place for you.

Rest and recover well. And oh! You will find few wands there. Choose one and hone your skills back to your prime.

This letter is a portkey to that place. My father's animagus is its password.

Harry James Potter

"Stag," muttered Sirius and disappeared from the room.
