Leo's Pov, 

Holding my stomach as the many students are saying goodbye to one another I think I've already got like 50 papers with addresses from other students and they all came accompanied with glares from Hermione. 

My body feels well better and better with every day. But still it hurts, and Bloody hell I look like a mess. Bruises color my skin, cuts decorate my body and than there's the wound in my stomach that's about 2 inches wide from there the Ice Spike impaled my body............. I'm jusy glad we got out, that Harry got us out. 

Everyone is packing to go home and yet once again I don't have to pack. Hearing a knock on my door I look up to see Grandfather stand there with mother. "Why aren't you packing?" 

"Why should I be packing, I don't think you would both be letting me go anywhere after what happened." I mumble and Grandfather shrugs his shoulders. "I think despise what happened now would be the time for you to spend your summer somewhere else." He says and I raise my bow at the older man. 

"So your sending me away?"

"No, we were wondering if you would like to spend your summer with Sirius." Mother says and I have to spend my summer with a man who's on the run? Now that doesn't sound like the best time, especially when we get caught and both get thrown into Azkaban! 

"So I can't stay here and I'm going to have to go on the run? Lovely sounds absol-" I start and mother rolls her eyes at my words. "There's a house Leonidas, we both will have many things to do this summer and Hagrid is leaving...... you'll have to be all alone and don't worry I've spoken with Firenze he'll take care of the creatures until your return." He says and I puff my cheeks out. 

"But I was you know going to ask if Herm-" 

"We know but things change, and she'll be joining you there in some weeks." Mother says and I give her a nod. "Alright, how bad can it be right?" 

"I will have to ask you to not contact Harry this summer Leonidas even if you wish it, things are changing not they've returned but do not worry he'll be save." Grandfather says and I can't even contact Harry during the summer? 

"He won't be happy about it, but if you say so........ I'll uhm start packing than." 



.........................

Walking outside I see Ron, Hermione, Harry, Blaise and Daphne standing there while I walk over with Dawn next to me and Bandit on her back. "Do you think we ever are going to have a quit year?" 

"I bloody hope so, but I doubt it." I answer Ron's question with a shake of my head as I take Hermione's hand in mine. "Well well well look at that." Blaise says with a wiggle of his eyebrows making me roll my eyes. 

"If you don't' wish to have my foot up your ass I would advise you to shut up." I say as I send a glare towards him. "I think right now I'll take my chances, you can barely stand up for longer than 20 mintues..... so there's no way in hell your running after me." 

"Evere had a Niffler go through your stuff..... they have very and I mean very deep pockets..... maybe I'll send Bandi-" I start with a grin as I see Blaise eyes widen before Hermione cuts me off. "Oke enough you, your still healing like are you sure you can be out of bed or out of St Mungo's for that matter?!" Hermione says with worry in her voice and I release a small chuckle. 

"I'm fine, never felt better." 

"Never felt better mate you had us all thinking you were a goner." Ron says with a simple shrug. "I'm not a goner, come on guys I'm not that easy to get rid off." I say as we reach the carrages and they pull me into hugs before slowly but surely getting in. 

"I will write to you." Hermione says and I nod my head as I lay my hand on her cheek making her lean into my touch. "I know we made plans for this summer, but you'll probably see me sooner than you think." I softly say before leaning down and placing my lips against hers. 

As Hermione is quick to kiss me back I pull her closer to me and soon deepen the kiss as her arms snake around my neck, both of us have been getting loss in this kiss. 

"Oi! Stop snogging before we miss the train!" Harry yells and it makes me and Hermione pulls apart as her cheeks turn a bright red color while I roll my eyes. 

"I'll uhm write you." She quickly says before getting into the carriage, seeing the Thesteral begin to pull it I release a deep breath as they wave at me and I wave at them. Another year gone.... and now all will change, Grandfather told me about what he knows of the White Queen do I think he left parts out? Yes, he surely did...... but she was locked away by the founders and if there's one person to defeat her it's me. 

Talking about bloody pressure! I think that's one of the reason they are sending me to Sirius for the summer, I can't practice magic outside school...... and if I would have stayed, I would have spend my days caring for the creatures and then training.... to become better, to become stronger. I need to be stronger and better if I want a chance against her.  So now I get to spend my summer? I don't even know where..... it's all changing Hagrid left and it's on probably orders from Grandfather, Igor Karkaroff left after the third task and hasn't been seen anymore. 

They know it's true, that they are truly back....... now the question is what's everyone's move going to be. Voldemort and The White Queen will try to stay hidden from the news, Fudge will try to blame what happened on everything but the truth. Grandfather will try to pull people to our side while the Death Eaters will start to do the same thing, it's all going to become a mess...... in times like these it's important to keep them close to me.... all of them. 

"You're sending me away because you do not wish for me to spend my time getting stronger." I say as I notice grandfather walk next to me. "I'm sending you away because I know your strength doesn't come from books or fighting dummies it comes from the love you carry in your heart, it was your love for Harry that made you stand in front of him not the knowledge you have gained, it was love that made you not see Ginny Weasley as the one who took you but a girl who was used by Tom Riddle. That is your true strength Leonidas." He says as he places a reassuring hand on my shoulder and gives it a squeeze. 

"Maybe but working on my magic would be us-" I start before he cuts me off. "Spending time with your family and those we care about is also important, you've spend the last 14 years here with us....... maybe it's good to see where your from Leonidas, spend time with him and learn who you truly are." He says as he holds his hand out for me and I release a sigh. 

"If you say so." I mumble and once I lay  my hand on his I feel us apparate before I stand in this livingroom? All alone. 

"Helloooooo if you wish to kill me now is the great time since I'm wounded." I yell out into the empty house? It's uhm messy with some cobwebs..... dust I mean lots and lots of dust and it looks like no one has been living here for years. 

"Why would I wish to kill you?" The voice of Sirius says as he walks into the room in well better clothes than he's been wearing for a long time, his hair doesn't look like a matted mess anymore..... his beard isn't that messy anymore. 

"I don't know, so what's this place anyway?" I ask him and he takes a deep breath with a sad smile on his face as he looks around. "12 Grimmauld Place, once it was my fathers house and his before that and so on and on...... after my mother passed it became mine I never wanted this, so many bad memories but your mother told me that we could have our own memories here, so it became home." He says and a frown settles on my face. 

"T-this is where you lived?" 

"This is where we lived, this was our home before everything happened." He says and I look around the place it looks cozy and like a family did live here many years ago. "I uhm ow oke?" I say as well I don't know what to say! 

"I'm glad you're here, I know it's weird trust me it's weird for me too to be here..... but we'll make it work together."
