Battle's End

Harry flew out of the house and landed on the front garden, he powered through the pain and narrowly managed to roll out of the way of a killing curse. Once he got to his feet Harry jumped back to avoid another killing curse, Harry shot an ice ray at Apophis before he apparated away.

Harry apparated so he was behind Apophis, Apophis turned only to get hit by a bone breaker to the collar bone. Apophis flew back but to the amazement and disbelief of Harry he managed to quickly get back to his feet as if he was only hit by a knockback jinx. Apophis jabbed his wand at Harry who had managed to side step and point the wand away from himself, flames burst out of the wand and began spreading around the house at a high pace.

Harry tried to point his own wand at Apophis but Apophis had grabbed his wrist with his free hand, the two found themselves in a stalemate with wands pointed away form their opponent and their free hand on the opponents wrist.

"You will die in this home Potter." Apophis said confidently, flames still spreading from his wand, not that he seemed to care.

"I'm not scared of dying." Harry said, glaring at him. "Can you say the same?"

"I fear nothing!"

"Give me some time, I'll fix that." Harry said, copying Apophis's confident voice.

The two struggled for several moments before they apparated outside, the two broke off and Harry managed to get a punch in before they apparated again, this time they landed in Harry's room. Apophis punched Harry, causing him to fall back on his bed. Harry quickly shot a spell at his desk and animated it to charge at Apophis, Apophis found himself shoved out of the room and crashing into the wall opposite. Harry shot a red spell at Apophis as soon as he got up, Apophis blocked and jumped over the desk and back into Harry's room. Harry tackled Apophis and the two apparated again and landed in the Dursley's back garden.

Harry pushed Apophis away and fired a spell which Apophis barely managed to dodge, the spell ended up destroying the Dursley's shed. Harry blocked a red spell and batted away a blue one, the two exchanged some more spells. Apophis shot a giant flame blast at Harry who quickly covered himself in an flame freezing charm. The flames covered him and even went far enough to start burning the tree behind him, once the flames were done Harry aimed his wand at Apophis and sent a lightning blast at him. Apophis apparated out of the way, causing the blast to strike the house, Harry turned behind him and tried to elbow Apophis only to get his elbow caught.

The two apparated again and ended back in front of the Dursley's house, Apophis kicked Harry away and fired a killing curse but Harry was able to apparate away and landed a small distance away.

"You have a name?" Harry asked, his breath heavier due to all of the fighting he had done.

"Apophis." Apophis answered after a moments pause.

"I notice that we're on a little bit of a stalemate." Harry said with a small shrug of his shoulders. "We can stop if you want to give up."

"No." Was all Apophis said before the two reengaged.

As they shot spells they either ignored or did notice the sounds of apparition, Harry shot a green spell that charged towards Apophis while taking the shape of a ball, it made a humming noise and exploded just before it touched Apophis. Apophis managed to put up a shield but was still knocked backwards and onto his back, he apparated a meter to the left to avoid a cutting curse from Harry. Once he got to his feet he shot a red beam at Harry's feet, Harry rolled but the explosion from the beam sent him onto the floor.

Apophis shot a skin shredding curse at Harry who shielded and shot a snake at Apophis to distract him long enough for Harry to get to his feet. Harry waved his wand around him and soon a green gas covered the area around Harry, making him hidden from view. Apophis shot a spell at the gas and the gas turned into fire.

A sound of apparition told Apophis that Harry was not in the flames, Harry landed on the roof and began firing at Apophis, Apophis was hit in the chest by a bone breaker and shrugged it off before aiming his wand at the house and sending a powerful explosive hex. Harry apparated away just in time, a large part of the house was damaged. Harry landed right behind Apophis, Apophis quickly turned back to Harry.

Harry jabbed his wand forward at the same time as Apophis, their wands connected and a wave shot out, shattering all nearby glass and sending Harry backwards and onto the ground along with the order members that had arrived. Apophis flew backwards and landed in the damaged and burning Dursley house.

"Oi dickhead!" Harry called as he pushed himself up to a kneeling position. "You up for another round?" Harry asked, wiping some sweat off his forehead.

Apophis stood up slowly, he looked at Harry then glanced to the order members. He did not respond to Harry and instead turned around and began walking, he flicked his wand just before he apparated and the flames flared, growing larger, the house began crumbling down. Harry let out a deep breath when he turned and saw the order members.

"Potter." One of them said only for Harry to shoot a blinding light from his wand right before he apparated away.

........

Silence.

...

...

...

Silence.

...

...

...

Silence.

Silence was all that could be heard in the courtroom, everyone was looking at Harry with complete and utter disbelief.

Sirius was looking at Harry as if he had never seen him before, he always knew that Harry was powerful but he did not know the boy was this powerful or this skilled. Sirius could not help but feel a bit jealous, fortunately it was overshadowed by all of his unyielding pride in his godson. Looking at it he could not help but feel that Harry would probably have been able to beat Sirius and the other marauders if they were all the same age. Goddamn his parents would be proud.

Dumbledore on the other hand was feeling a mixture of emotions. On one hand he was rather glad that Harry was turning into such a powerful wizard and that he survived the attack but on the other hand he had no idea how Harry grew so powerful. Where did he learn so many spells? How does he know so much magic? What else did Harry know? How did the boy get so strong?

The rest of the court room on the other hand were looking at Harry as if he was the new Merlin.

"Mr Potter," Madam Marchbanks eventually spoke. "I have many, many questions. First of all, how long have you known how to apparate?"

"Since I was eight." Harry answered, shocking people even more.

"Since you were eight?!" Amelia Bones repeated with disbelief.

"It's not that hard." Harry shrugged. "When I was eight I was being chased by some bullies and somehow I ended up on top of a roof, later on I tried to do it again and I did. It took some practise but I could pretty much do it whenever I wanted, after I read up on wizarding law I found out that it was called apparating and that it was illegal to do at my age so I stopped."

"Well..." Madam Marchbanks, like the rest of the court, did not look too sure if she should believe him or not. "...what about those spells you used? I know a great many of them aren't taught in Hogwarts at your year."

"I was entered against my will into the Triwizard tournament last school year so I took the opportunity to learn as many spells as I could." Harry answered. "As a champion I was given unlimited access to the library, I also studied some books from my family vault."

"And the silent casting?" Madam Marchbanks asked.

"I read up on it, seemed useful, tried it and eventually learnt how to do it." Harry said as if it was simple.

"Mr Potter, that is not something that is taught in your year."

"Magic isn't something that I have been taught until I was eleven but I could still do it when I was ten." Harry replied.

"...fair point."

"Ma'am," The wizard in charge of the pensive said. "memory is definitely real." He said after checking the memory.

"I'll want that back before I leave by the way." Harry said.

A short while later after some more questioning, Harry was exiting the court room with Sirius and Ted by his side.

"That was brilliant Harry!" Sirius said, patting his godson on the back. "Absouloutly brilliant! I knew you were strong but...wow! Just wow!"

"Thanks." Harry chuckled, he was quite happy right now. The court had decided not to charge him with anything, to be fair after his willingness and cooperation plus the memory he gave Harry doubted any of them, even those who hated him, would have been dumb enough to try anything. Harry was also very much aware that today would simply add another page into the legend of Harry Potter.

"By the way, we are going to St Mungo's right now." Sirius said suddenly.

"What? Why?" Harry frowned.

"Because after seeing that fight there is no way that you are not going to hospital to get checked."

"Sirius I am fine..."

"I don't care," Sirius said, cutting off Harry's protest. "hospital now."

"Yes mum." Harry rolled his eyes.
