Chapter 123: Snape's Fury Unleashed
When Dumbledore arrived in the hospital wing along with Professor McGonagall, it was to find Ronald Weasley lying on the bed and groaning in pain with Madam Pomfrey busily working over him, feeding him various potions in-between casting several spells. He saw Harry standing opposite him and leaning against a bed with his arms crossed while his snake familiar was on his shoulder and whispering things into his ear.
"Madam Pomfrey," Dumbledore spoke, announcing his presence to the room. "may I ask what the damage is?" He asked.
"The boy has a lot of broken bones, he broke his right arm and left wrist," She replied as she continued to treat Ron. "and he has damaged a few ribs and has suffered a bit of damage to his upper spine, luckily the damage to his spine isn't severe."
"Damn it." Harry hissed.
"It's alright, we'll get it next time." Jet replied in a soothing voice.
"He also has a bruised tailbone and a small bruise on his head." Madam Pomfrey added.
"Goodness." Professor McGonagall gasped.
"What spell was used?" Dumbledore asked, looking at Harry.
"Oh, well I actually just blasted him backwards." Harry admitted. "But I was angry enough that it had a bit more power, a bit of extra 'oomph' if you will, sent him flying backwards and he proceeded to do the worst landing I have ever seen. Now, is Mr Weasley here? And by that I mean the adult one."
"Mr Potter," Professor Dumbledore began. "Mr Weasley has been contacted, however I would like it if you please reconsider making this a matter between houses, if you do we can simply and easily settle this here."
"I will not change my mind." Harry said in a firm voice as he closed his eyes.
"Very well," Dumbledore sighed as he looked at Harry with tired eyes. "but may I at least know why this has all happened?" He asked.
"You may, sir." Harry nodded. "Though if you don't mind then I would like to at least wait until the adult Mr Weasley gets here so I will only have to explain this once. It's not really something I want to repeat multiple times, and I know that I will have to say it at least a second time to my friends."
"Fair enough, Mr Potter." Dumbledore said after a deep breath.
"Are you okay?" Harry asked as he opened his eyes, noticing how tired Dumbledore looked. "No offense sir, but you look like you need a nap."
"Somehow I doubt my sleeping schedule is the issue." Dumbledore said in a dry voice.
Eventually Arthur Weasley arrived, he immediately rushed towards his son and asked Madam Pomfrey about his health. Madam Pomfrey answered his questions as best as she could before using magic to make Ron go to sleep so he could heal better, which was of course obviously the only reason for making him go to sleep. She gave everyone a nod before she walked off and headed towards her office.
"Headmaster, Professor McGonagall," Arthur said as he turned to both senior members of the Hogwarts staff. "can someone please tell me what is going on?" He asked.
"I don't quite know what is going on either, Arthur." Professor Dumbledore admitted. As he stood in-between Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape who had arrived a few minutes before Mr Weasley and had spent the last few minutes being told about everything that has happened by the other two Professor's. "All I am aware of is the fact that Mr Potter had blasted young Ronald across half the great hall."
"I am sure that's a new record." Jet hissed into Harry's ear.
"Something amusing, Mr Potter?" Snape asked when he noticed the small smile on Harry's lips.
"Just my familiar's sense of humor." Harry easily replied before turning to Mr Weasley. "Now, Mr Weasley, let's catch you up on so you can fully understand what an idiot your son is."
"Harry," Arthur began. "I don't..."
"Ah," Harry cut him off. "I don't recall permitting you to address me by my first name. Are you perhaps the reason why your son cares so little for the correct social behavior?"
"I'm sorry," Arthur bowed his head slightly. "Mr Potter, I..."
"Lord Potter," Harry cut him off once more. "because that is who you are talking to right now. Lord- royally pissed off - Potter." Harry said, while he wasn't officially allowed to participate on the Wizengamot due to his age, he was still allowed to be addressed as Lord Potter outside of official Wizengamot meetings since he was pretty much Lord Potter, anything he wanted to do as Lord Potter in the Wizengamot could be done through Andromeda who was his regent. He was also the last member of the Potter family. If his father was alive then he would of course be Heir Potter, but since he is not Harry automatically becomes Lord Potter.
"Lord Potter," Arthur corrected. "I don't understand what my son has done to deserve such appalling..."
"Mr Weasley," Harry interrupted, if Mr Weasley was 'Lord Weasley' then Harry would of addressed him as such but seeing as he wasn't since his house wasn't a noble one, Harry could settle with Mr Weasley. "I promise you that if I wanted to truly harm your son then after a minute I would be able to fit what was left of him into a matchbox. What you're seeing is the result of extreme anger narrowly beating out solid control." He said, his eyes narrowed as he spoke.
"Mr Potter," Snape drawled. "our time is quite valuable, cease with the dramatics."
"Tell me, Professor, is there such a thing as 'hypocrisy' in the wizarding world?" Harry innocently asked, Snape's face turned red with anger and he was about to respond but Harry continued talking before he could. "If this is boring you then I am sure you can leave and be caught up later." Harry added before turning to Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore. "I respect you both and ask that you remember that this is now business between House Potter and House Weasley.
You may not approve of my words or actions but you cannot interfere. You may stay if you wish but if you believe that you cannot stay out of the way then please leave." Harry said before he turned back to Professor Snape. "As for you Professor, if you don't want to leave then I might I suggest that you stay silent and copy the other two Professors."
"You arrogant little brat!" Snape growled. "Potter, you are just like your..."
