Harry Potter is located in London in the dead of night. How exactly did he end up there, and what has he been doing? Well, any kid with half a brain knows not to talk to strangers.

Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! I had this chapter planned out for a while, so it was great to finally post it and gauge everyone's reactions. It's all uphill from here... mostly, anyway, as no recovery processes in a purely vertical direction, if that makes sense.
Hahahaha :) Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! I'm really glad you liked Snape in this chapter; I was a bit worried that he was too soft. I was a bit unsure about this chapter, in general, so that's really good to hear. (The truth comes out in jest, you know, so you're demanding a chapter the same way I demanded reviews, hiding our intentions behind jokes...)
Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! I'm all grinning and excited because your story is one of my favorites, so it's great to know that you like mine as well. Most intriguing Harry you've ever read? Couldn't stop reading? Day made. yayayayay 3x! Okay, done gloating now. I agree, the way Harry brushes off the Dursley's abuse in canon does seem wrong, and it really gets to me that nothing was ever done about it. Molly, seriously, you brought down Bellatrix, and you let it keep happening because Dumbledore 'had his reasons'? And Dumbledore. Don't even get me started. I do feel the need to defend JK, however, and say that she was just writing for children (who wouldn't notice the lack of realism in Harry's behavior) most likely not expecting many adults to read it, let alone to become rabidly obsessed, and the abuse give the story a fairy tale-like quality, where Harry is rescued from a sad and lonely existance, then brought to a magical castle where he's famous and talented (that was a run-on sentence, but who's in charge here, anyway?). Not to mention, if the abuse was properly explored in canon, we'd need an eighth book. So now all of us rabid fans can properly explore the abuse in fanfic and vent our frustrations, plus douse Snape with a large dose of reality while we're at it ;) (Speaking of, how freaking long is it going to take for your Snape to pull his head out of his ---? It's making me crazy!)
Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! I'm really glad you're enjoying the story, and I will indeed be posting again soon. Hang in there :) Harry has a plan to humiliate Umbridge, but with the help of a young house-elf, he gets a bit - okay, a LOT - more than he bargained for.

Now I can basically handle OOC. That's fine. Not a prob. I guess it can be considered out of character when it's at this speed. My suggestion is to slow down a little, ease up on the quick pacing. I felt like the events came at me a little too fast. But my biggest issue is the POV. Harry Potter is generally written with the 3rd person. It's very hard to write Harry and then Snape in the first person POV. They both sound exactly the same - and that's not a good thing. If you must use 1st person, then it's best to only use one. If you're going to flip from Harry and Snape a lot, however, then 3rd would give you far more freedom. I hope you continue writing. :) You have an excellent idea here and I hope you keep at it! Author's Response: Thanks. I have changed the story to 3rd person. I will try to go a little bit slower next time. An I wont filp from Harry and Snape so much. I just did it for this chapter so that we can know how Harry got into the hospital and who saved him and all that other madness. Thanks for reading and reviewing. When Dumbledore sees the welts upon Harry Potter, he removes him from his relative's care at once. His guardian for the summer is none other than Severus Snape. It is an unhappy arrangement-Snape is snarky and snide, making Harry do chores and never keeping him happy. But Harry realises that Snape is not as he seems. In fact, he is just what Harry had needed all along-a support. Warning: CP!

Author's Response: Awe thanks :) yeah, someone else on FF.net said they were glad Dumbledore did this too. Thanks for reviewing.
