Reborn In A Harry Potter Universe - 7 Where is Harry?

Dudley’s POV:

After the conversation with Petunia, I quickly went back to the stairs.

“Harry mate, you still there”

“Yea”

“I’m opening the closet now”

“ok” he replied somewhat eagerly

I put the key inside the first keyhole and with two counter clockwise turns I opened the first padlock.

“Hold on Harry, I’m almost done”

I took the key out of the first padlock and lifted the lock of the second key. Using the same key, I insert it into the side of the padlock where the key hole is and with another two counter clockwise turns I opened the lock. I quickly removed the padlock from the door.

“Ok Harry, the door is unlocked I am opening it right now”

“ok h..hu….hurry please it’s re…really dark in here”

With that I opened the door all the way and the light of the setting sun started coming. When Harry saw me, he started crying. I did know what to do but I knew that if I did not get him to calm down, Petunia will eventually hear us. So I said.

“shhh, come on you are a man also, mum thinks you are still out so we better go outside. By the way, did mother really send you out”

“Umhm, she told me to go ask Ms. Kobblepots if she has seen where the garden’s flowertop had gone.”

“Did you get to make the journey”

“No, I was going out when Uncle Vernon stopped me at the end of the veranda”

I sighed and said “Let’s head out before we finish this conversation” While we were walking outside I shouted,

“MOM!!! I’m going to look for Harry outside”

“Don’t stay outtoo long, he could be coming home right now.” Petunia yelled from the kitchen

“Ok.” I replied . As we were stealthy walking outside, Harry asked

“Dudley, you really like to use big words don’t you?”

I looked at Harry in surprise andreplied “Yea, and that’s because I’m a big man hohoho…ho” I ended the laugh awkwardly when I realized Harry did not believe me . With that, we quietly walk outside and continue to walk until we reach a secluded area two streets down and we stopped. Then I held up the bottle of water in my hand and said,

” Here have something to drink, I got you some chicken from the oven. Also, make sure you drink before you eat it.”

“Allright” Harry quietly responded. After he finished drinking the water, I gave him the bowl with the chicken in it and said

“Now how about you eat.”

“Thanks for the food Dudley”

“No worries” puffing up my chest, “they don’t call me big D for nothing”

“Who’s they” Harry asked curiously

“Don’t worry about it. Anyways hurry and finish the food”

Harry practically devoured the food after that. Even licking the plates until it was clean of stain.

Petunia POV

Not long after my Didy yummy bunny left, I finish washing the plates and began to clean the plates. Honestly, my crumbles changes his mind quickly. But that what makes him different from all the others and he is also my son. I remember he used to cry whenever we were going to throw his stuff away or donate them. In order to prevent that, we packed all of his broken junk in the other room without telling him.

Hmm, did he find out? Is it the reason why he wants to give the room to the freak? Hmm, let not worry about that. Right now, what I need to do is figure out a way to throw his rubbish away without him knowing. Hearing the sound of a door unlocking, I suddenly hear

“Mom, we are home, I found him”

“Really, that great” I replied to him but honestly, I wish he had gotten missing. Damn those wizards for threatening us and damn the law for forcing us to keep it.

Harry POV:

My cousin is really weird, sometimes he just stares in the air like he is in a really deep thought. Other times, he is ene….ener… happy all the time. He also let’s me sleep in his room all the time without Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon knowing.

Recently, Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon got him a pair of swords and I have never seen him putting it down. He’s always swinging it. One day, while I am watching the telly from the veranda, aunt Petunia came up to me and said,

“Freak” muttered aunt Petunia

“Go to Ms. Kobblepots place and ask her if she has seen the flowertop that belongs in the garden.”

“Yes, aunt Petunia” I said timidly. Then she turned around and started to walk to the kitchen.

“Dudley, I’m heading to Ms Kobblepots”

“Hmm” looks like he didn’t hear me. Better head near him and speak loudly. Hah, this is not the first time it has happened. I better be fast before aunt Petunia shouts at me like always. while I was about to walk up to him,

“Boy where are you going,” Uncle Vernon who was sitting in the living room asked

“Ummm, Aunt Petunia to…told me to go ask Ms. Ko…Kobblepots a question”

“Freak, come here”

“But…..”

“But nothing” he yelled at me then he grabbed me and lifted me up.

“If you scream, I will beat you to death” Uncle Vernon said in a deep, threatening voice

“uhm” I replied and tried to keep my whimper in. I was really scared, when he lifted me up. As I got higher, I saw Dudley. I tried to called for help me Uncle Vernon glared at me. He brought me to the closet under the stairs then he opened the door and locked me inside. I did not know how long I stayed there.

While I was re-thinking how dark everything is, I heard Dudley voice and I knew he would save me because he is different from uncle and aunty.

He’s the only one who likes talking and when people start to pick on me, he shows up and they run like something is chasing them.

When he opens the door, I co…codn’t believe how beautiful the world is. So, I start crying and Dudley tries to calm me but it made it worse. Eventually I calm down and we go outside. We walk to streets down to a secluded area and he gives me the bottle of water he is holing. After I drink it, he gives me the food he told me he was goin to get. It was rerecious and tasted good.

After eating, we go to Ms Kobblepots and we find out that she does not know where the flowertop is. So, we head back to the house empty handed. When we reach the house, Dudley shouts that he found me. I was really sc…sca… afraid that Aunty Petunia will come out but she didn’t. While he is talking to Aunt Petunia, I have a nag…nagging feeling so, I turn around and see that Uncle Vernon’s car is entering into the house parking area.

Panicking, I look back at Dudley and said, “Dudley, Uncle Vernon just arrived home”
