24 23) No More Horcrux....

"Well then before we do anything, we were able to get into our family vaults and I have found a ritual that will help with getting rid of Harry's Horcrux." His mom said drawing everyone's attention, "All we need is Harry, Phoenix Tears and three powerful Wizards though it will take a lot of energy." (Got this from another but thought it was a good idea so I'm going to use it)

"Alright but where are we suppose to get Phoenix Tears?" Sirius asked looking hopeful but doubtful that they would be able to get any.

No on spoke all the adults besides Harry and Sirius looked to Cory who scratched the back of his head, he reached into his inventory and brought out a vial of clear liquid. "Got this a long time ago, well I have three of them but never needed them they aren't really that helpful unless it is a major injure or something. Other than that it has been wasting away in here."

The family didn't hide the Dungeon stuff from Harry and Sirius, they even thought of letting them join but until everything was calm they were settling on not diving at the moment. "Okay well you are giving me the other two for potions, for now though let's move this to the basement, Nissy!"

A pop and she was there, "Yes Mistress Chase?" she asked looking excited to be needed.

"Nissy I need you to do two things first take this letter to my friend in France then come back and meet us in the basement I need your help to watch over us while we do the ritual okay?" His mom said smiling at the excited elf.

"Of course Mistress Nissy will do it immediately!" She grabbed the letter and popped away no clue where she was going though since only his mom knew who the letter was too.

"Alright Sirius since you aren't yet fully healed then you will sit this one out it will be Cory, Richard and me when the time comes," Sirius looked like he wanted to argue but seeing her glare he could only nod meekly, "Good now me and Richard will go get started on it while you four wait here."

They walked off leaving the others behind, Rosalie went off saying she was going to set up the cauldron and other things, she still wanted to be a potions master even if she was going to be a CEO. Sirius was dragged off for another tea party with Artemis, 'Thing 1' and '2' leaving Harry and Cory as the only two in the living room.

Cory looked over at the nervous teen, "Don't worry my parents are great when it comes to this kind of stuff you won't have to worry ever again. Now I went and got sorted into Ravenclaw earlier today so why don't you tell me all about what I need to know about this school of yours." he finished while falling into the couch.

Harry paused for a moment then nodded, he started to tell him about his time at Hogwarts just as he had told Sirius earlier that day not leaving anything out. When he was done he looked over at the wide eyed Cory, "Yeah I know it is a lot but the place is still the best and where I made my first friend."

Cory frowned, "Is that Ron or Hermione?"

"Ron? He was the first person I met on the train car." he said confused.

"I wouldn't be to sure about that I mean, from what you told me it seems like all a set up plus Ron not being a true friend, "When he saw that Harry went to speak he held up a hand first, "Look at it this was before Ron they sent five kids to Hogwarts but why did she forget where the platform was, with you happening to hear. Two every cart was full on a train designed to hold thousands of students and Ron just happens to meet you again huh? Third when it was found that you were a Parseltongue not only did he not stand up for you but assumed it was you too right?"

Harry nodded so he went on, "Then tell me why the moment you get ready to fight the Basilisk and get glory again does he suddenly become your friend again. Not to mention the fact that like you said he didn't even visit Hermione while she was petrified, doesn't seem like a real friend to me. If anything he is there because of your status along with the rest of the Weasley's and also have you noticed this you said a little of you trust was missing and they happen to win the lottery that year?"

Cory raised a brow at him and Harry couldn't say anything it was in the papers but it never said how much was missing, he had also given his key to Mrs. Weasley who gave it back that year after safe keeping. Looking at it from an outside point of view he could tell that something wasn't right, "But then how did they get in the paper about winning?"

"Easy Dumbledore, they are on his side and he might have known what they did but seeing that it didn't hurt you then he let it slide. But to cover their tracks he had to make it look like they won or it would raise questions when they suddenly came into money." Cory said making him see the light considering that Dumbledore while not evil let it slide as long as it didn't mess with the plans he had for Harry.

Harry sat there shocked, Sirius walked in a tiara on his head he had heard it all and was mad at the old man for letting these people treat Harry like that, "Don't worry pup it looks like you have a true friend here in Cory, while also you still have Hermione and from your stories Neville isn't so bad."

Harry nodded numbly realizing that his first friend wasn't an actual friend, he thought back to the weird looks he got from Ginny too and shivered at the thought of her actually liking him. Wasn't it just serving up his families money and other things if he actually got with her?

"Well Sirius don't worry about him to much soon I'm going to make it where you ae a free man and you can get your family lordship to take custody of him." Cory said while being dragged off by Artemis to replace Sirius.

"How can you do that I was disowned from the family?" Sirius asked before he disappeared.

"Easy, your mom didn't have the authority to disown you from the family so you are still the next in line and with a word from you Harry can be the next." Cory finished before being pulled out of view.

-----Two Hours Later.....

In the basement there was a complicated rune formation sitting on the ground, everyone besides Rosalie and Artemis were down here to do the ritual. There was a center circle that was meant for Harry while three others in a triangle shape for everyone else, "Alright Harry take off your shirt and move to the center so we can get started." His mom said looking at Harry who was nervous about getting started.

"Don't worry pup it has been a day but I trust these people with even my life, they will do what is in your best interest." Sirius said patting his back.

Harry took a deep breath and nodded before moving to the center, "Alright now we will each get in our but before we do Harry drink this," His dad said handing Harry a clear vial with a light green color, "Don't worry it is the potion that will keep you heal during this process and protect you in case something goes wrong."

Harry didn't ask questions but gulped it down sitting in the center, then him and his parents move to the circles slowly they started chanting before the ground started to light up. It felt like hours for what was going on with Harry, they were losing their magic slowly while they felt his getting stronger.

While Harry was still lost in his mind on the outside the others could see the changes slowly taking over his body, starting from his now smooth skin no longer with any blemishes. His hair that was already smooth and black from the treatments got even more smooth from the process of what was currently happening to him.

The biggest change though had to be the scar was now gone, there was a hissing sound before it started to slowly close. Before it was fully healed green smoke rose from it before there was a loud pitched howl before everything quieted down it was obviously the soul being destroyed, they each saw the face of Voldemort.

Cory shivered a little seeing it but he never stopped chanting, there was sweat all over his body though from his depleting magic reserves. His parents were better off seeing as they had more magic than him, right as it ended he could tell he only had about eight percent left in his mana which explained him feeling exhausted.

He hadn't felt this way in a long time but now that he felt it again it reminded him of how human he was, his parents across from him looked a little sweaty but other than that they weren't fazed. Cory rolled his eyes at them but even that was a chore in its own right, right when he was falling over Rosalie showed up holding him up.

She took him out before he got to see Harry awake, she carried him all the way to their tub, he let her even if it was embarrassing to be carried like a princess by his girlfriend. She undressed him before setting him inside the bath, she slowly washed his back while he fell asleep to her gentle touch that was relaxing him.

He didn't remembered what happen after that but he woke up three hours later in bed fully dressed, he would have slept longer but his internal clock was screaming at him to wake up. When he went downstairs it was already seven pm Rosalie was standing at the bottom of the steps, "I was just heading up to come get you for dinner, looks like that isn't needed now."

He smiled and took her hand the two walking into the kitchen when he went inside everyone was there, even Harry, "Harry? Thought you would have already been at home."

"Well..." He smiled sheepishly looking to Cory's mom while scratching the back of his head.

Cory looked to his mom, "I went and told them nicely that Harry would be spending the rest of the summer with us until school started."

Everyone looked at her with a deadpan look especially his dad and Harry who had been there when it happened, Cory looked to his dad knowing what his son meant he spoke, "She threaten to kill them if they even had ideas that Harry would ever be living with them again, he is now in our custody until Sirius is a free man, which we will work on this summer."

Cory nodded that was way more believable than what his mom had just said, "Well welcome to the house then Harry glad to have you here." he ignored his dad who was screaming for help while getting his ear pinched by his mom.
