They had earned a reprimand.

Not only him. When Hermione arrived at his uncles' house a day later, she got the same screams as him.

His muggle parents obviously didn't know the dirty details. But the general image had it. And they weren't very happy to say the least.

But they weren't punished enough beyond Walburga's shrieks and Orion's emotionless face that hurt Harry more than the scolding.

But then Orion came into his room at night and asked him to tell him about the pain of his scar. He must have guessed, his uncle lived with dark magic, he must have known what it was or had his suspicions.

So he didn't doubt to tell what he was feeling. He told him everything, from when it started to how it felt. His uncle was a good listener, didn't interrupt and encouraged him to continue when he should.

"What do you think uncle?" he asked tentatively.

"I think," he said slowly "That you know," Harry raised an eyebrow "Voldemort, is already regaining strength, and we must be more cautious."

"Do you think Malfoy's dad is aware?" he asked.

"I know that Draco has told him of the events in the castle," he raised a hand thinking that he would interrupt "By my recommendation more than anything, many children of Death Eaters will have done the same with their parents and it would have been strange that Draco was the only one who did not."

"Then you must suspect already."

"A lot of Death Eaters have things to lose if Voldemort returns," he sneered every word "Malfoy more than others, I know Nott was Tom's best friend at that time at school, he wasn't particularly quiet on that matter, I suppose he will be the best standing."

"Those who did not go to Azkaban are the ones who will suffer." Harry deduced or rather declared.

"Indeed," he confirmed "'ll talk to Narcissa to keep a closer eye on her husband, she loves him, but he's a fool with a mark on his arm and she doesn't want Draco to end up the same."

"Are you going to make Ron look at the crystal ball?" he asked mockingly, his friend hated doing it.

"He also went for that stone, right?" he said accomplice "Now sleep boy, only Merlin knows what Walburga will do to me if I don't let you rest."

"What happens Orion?" asked Walburga as soon as she saw him enter their room.

"I'm not sure," he replied tired "I just know that Harry is starting to be in danger."

"Do you think Dumbledore is behind?"

"I don't think, I'm sure he is," he growled "As much as you are, don't deny it, we both read Harry's letters, Dumbledore left crumbs and I don't think it was in him to give him back the Potter family heirloom."

"Did you ask Sirius about it?"

"He confirmed it, the cape belonged to James and his father before him," he affirmed "He is calm that Harry has it but disgusted that Dumbledore knows."

"I bet he thinks that now he won't be able to do what they in their time." She scoffed.

"Whatever it is," he twisted his face in a dismissive gesture "Dumbledore started to move his tokens, and he's monitoring Harry through the rooms I'm sure."
