Seeing his mistress lying on the floor, Ripper raced out to attack the threat to her. He recognized the scent of the new two legs as being one he regularly put in its place at the bottom of the pack when he was here. He growled threateningly at the two legs but instead of being terrified and running as he had before, the two legs raised its paw.
The bulldog quickly noticed that he was rising and his paws scrabbled frantically as they no longer felt solid ground beneath him. When he was at eye level with the strange two legs, he instinctively knew something had changed. This one was no longer the weakest member of the pack. He was now the alpha male. The alpha was speaking and while he couldn't understand all of it, the tone and posture of the new alpha two legs was clear. If he bothered the alpha again, then the wolf he sensed within would rip him to shreds.
Harry was pleased to note the fear on the Dursley's faces as the dog ran out of the room. "Before you and Petunia start trying to threaten and bully me, let's get a few things straight. Then I will tell you how things are going to be around here for the next few weeks."
Harry could tell that his choice of words enraged Vernon and the only thing keeping him quiet… right now, was the occasional glances he gave to his unconscious sister.
"As you can see," Harry waved his hand around, "there are no owls carrying letters threatening me with expulsion. Nor will there be. And the reason there won't be is quite simple. Last night I destroyed Voldemort."
"Surely those abnormal freaks didn't let you out of prison simply because of that." Petunia scoffed. "You did kill some boy at that school of yours after all."
The look Harry gave his aunt, made her squeak and back up behind the kitchen counter. "Did I say you could speak woman ?"
Trying once more to regain control of the situation, Vernon said, "Now see here, boy…"
"No! You sit down and shut up! " Harry's expression made it quite clear that he would force them to comply. "You don't have any say over me any longer, Vernon. Nor do you Aunt Petunia. You have both made your feelings about me quite clear over the years. Now it is my turn. I'm going to have my say and I don't want to hear another word out of either of you."
Vernon and Petunia quickly moved to the table and sat down, before he could make good on the implied threat.
"Now to answer your question, Aunt Petunia," Harry began. "I was released from Azkaban when the real killer was found last night. Not so surprisingly, it turned out to be someone who worked in the Minister's Office, which is part of the reason why the Ministry will not do anything to punish me for using magic before I turn seventeen in about two weeks. The Minister doesn't want to get on my bad side. "
None of the Dursleys said a word. Even Dudley had stopped eating as he realised what Harry could do to them since he wouldn't be punished for doing magic.
"Now that that's cleared up, it's time to settle a few other matters. I'm going to make this short and sweet so that even a moron like Dudley can understand it."
Petunia started to respond to the criticism of her son, whom she considered the brightest boy in the world, but one look at her nephew's face convinced her not to open her mouth.
"Good girl, Petunia." Harry sounded like he was praising a pet for performing a trick well. "See you are capable of learning…. Now for the next few weeks, I will be staying here and you're just going to have to put up with it. I'm only going to give you one word of warning though, if you leave me alone, I'll leave you alone. If you don't, then you'll wish you had." Harry glared at his overweight cousin. "That includes your friends, Dudley."
Reading the promise of retribution in his cousin's eyes, Dudley gulped and nodded.
Continuing his list of conditions for a magic free life, Harry told them. "None of you will hinder me or force me to do anything I don't want to do. You've had over ten years of unpaid labour out of me and I think that is more than enough. From now on while I am here, I will be doing as I please. Is that clear to everyone?"
The Dursleys could only nod their heads, making them resemble those bobble-head dolls.
"Excellent!" Harry smiled for the first time. "Just remember that and we should get along fine, for however long I am here."
