When Mrs. Figg saw the Police cars in front of the Dursley's house, she knows that something was happening.
Oh, she already knows that the Dursley wasn't the best persons in the world: she only needed to see Harry Potter to understand that. The poor boy was as thin as a rake and his clothes were never of the good size.
As they took Harry and Dudley out of the house and handcuffed Mr. and Mrs. Dursley in front of all the neighbors who looked at them with disdain, Arabella Figg called a very important someone.
"Dumbledore, the Police arrested the Dursley."

"Mister...?"
Asked Officer Smith when a – beautiful – man opens the door of the apartment.
"Jackson. Percy Jackson. I'm the roommate of Nico Di Angelo. Please, enter. Hey, nice to see you again, Harry."

"The-Boy-Who-Lived in a cupboard!
Early this morning, we had news from the famous Harry Potter! And, Wizards, Witches, he seems that our national savior was abused by his relatives!
Mr. and Mrs. Dursley were arrested this Saturday by the muggle Police after that the Social Worker (People who investigate in family) declared that the boy was being beaten !
Remind us that Mrs. Dursley nee Evans was the sister of Lily Potter, wife of James Potter and mother of Harry Potter. Lily Evans who was born in a muggle family and it's looks like there is hate between them! Who will beat an innocent boy, the child of your own sister?
Only Muggle could do that!
Let the Muggle Police put them in jail and get back Harry Potter where he belongs!
How can we accept that the Hero of our society ignored his entire heritage?
How can we accept that the defeater of You-Know-Who be defeated by vulgar Muggle?
Wizards, Witches, we can't!
But, before running in Muggle tribunal to get back Harry Potter... Why don't we discover who let him in this cruel house?
To open your eyes, magic society, the Daily Prophet !"

"Arthur! Do you see that? Oh this poor boy... What Dumbledore wants to do?"
One red-hair man looked at his wife with a thinker eyes.
"He will contact us if he needs us, Molly. Don't worry, I'm sur he already have a plan."

"Lucius? What's happens?
Asked a beautiful blond woman, looking at her husband with her sleepy son on her knees.
"It's seems as we could act, Narcissa."

One month was the time they had with Harry in waiting that every dossiers was examine by the court.
It was a good time, they past their days between looked at series or go outside. Of course, Percy could come only the weekend, his job taking all his time but Nico had taken holydays to be able to pass his time with Harry.
The beginning was complicated, Harry was a shy kid and didn't dare to ask what he wanted. That was a game of silence but Nico win, finally.
It's started with simple question as "Do you want hot chocolate?" "Do you want this sweatshirt?" or "Do you want to sleep now?", gradually Harry pass to "no" at "yes" and then "Can I have toast?"
They were again in question time, even when Percy was here.
But there were much more of laugh in the home.
The first time was with Percy, Harry with hesitation asked him where he went every morning. So Percy spoke of his job, particularly of the Wednesday when he goes to the zoo.
No need to say that the two adults remarked the desire in Harry's eyes. They exchanged a look and the next Wednesday, Nico and Harry came with Percy to the zoo.
As a consultant worker, again in Penguin zone, Percy succeeded to put Harry with him in the enclosure. It was a nice moment that Nico took in photo and it was the first time that Harry laugh and speak without fear.
They will never forget this moment.

It was the D-day.
The trial started to 10AM with the condemnation of the Dursley where Harry needed to testify. Then, the Court will announce the chosen dossiers and specialists will judge the better house for Harry.
They were stressed in their better suits, entering in the courthouse with the Officer Smith and Harry griping Nico's hand.
"Over there"
Said Smith, opening a door and showing them a sit.
"Only one of you can sit next to Harry."
He clarified. Percy made a sign to Nico who understand and stay side to Harry while Percy sits behind.
When everyone was here, Percy remarked a big number of couple and... weird persons with weird clothes.
Well, he wasn't a guy to judge and all but... Was it a dress?!
He smirks and tap on Harry's shoulder:
"he, he, Harry, looks! These guys have dress! And this one? He looks as a vampire!"
The little guy turns back to looked at the public with a smile forming on his lips.
"Percy Jackson, how many times must I tell you to not mock at the others?"
Said Nico with an intimidating tone to which he answers by a pout, making laugh Harry by the same time.
Percy winked to Nico, his aim achieve : de-stress the boy and themselves. The nice smile that Nico give him deserved the killer look of the vampire guy.
Everything went well until Harry testifies in front of everyone and the Dursley. The little boy looked at them and Nico could see tears in his eyes, the tattooed wanted to go over there and take him in a hug. But he couldn't and Percy's hand on his shoulder reminds him.
However, the Vernon Dursley certainly didn't have this patience as he starts to insult Harry of a liar and some other words that Nico prefer to forget.
"If I could put him in hell, I will do it now."
Murmur Nico and Percy's hand press his shoulder, to hold him back or to support him, Nico doesn't know.
The tears in Harry's eyes started to fall and the little guy ran away from his testify place and right into Nico's arms.
"Shh, it's okay... We're here Harry. We're here."
Percy could only pass his hand in Harry's brown messy hair.
At the same time, the Judge gave the condemnation and the Police finally took the Dursley away.
"We're going to definite with which family Harry Potter will stay. From all the dossiers we received, we select three. The first one is the Jackson/Di Angelo. The second is the Malfoy and the third is the Weasley!"
End! Well, this is not good but I wasn't in the good mind for writing. I hope it will be enough.
