Extract (may contain spoilers)
"Hagrid?" Harry struggled to raise himself out of the debris of metal and leather that surrounded him; his hands sank into inches of muddy water as he tried to stand.  He could not understand where Voldemort had gone and expected him to swoop out of the darkness at any moment.  Something hot and wet was trickling down his chin and from his forehead.  He crawled out of the pond and stumbled toward the great dark mass on the ground that was Hagrid.

"Hagrid?  Hagrid, talk to me -"

But the dark mass did not stir.

"Who's there?  Is it Potter?  Are you Harry Potter?"

Harry did not recognize the man's voice.  Then a woman shouted, "They've crashed, Ted!  Crashed in the garden!"

Harry's head was swimming.

"Hagrid," he repeated stupidly, and his knees buckled.

The next thing he knew, he was lying on his back on what felt like cushions, with a burning sensation in his ribs and right arm.  His missing tooth had been regrown.  The scar on his forehead was still throbbing.

"Hagrid?"  He opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on a sofa in an un-familiar, lamplit sitting room.  His rucksack lay on the floor a short distance away, wet and muddy.  A fair-haired, big-bellied man was watching Harry anxiously.

"Hagrid's fine, son," said the man, "the wife's seeing to him now.  How are you feeling?  Anything else broken?  I've fixed your ribs, your tooth, and your arm.  I'm Ted, by the way, Ted Tonks - Dora's father."

Harry sat up too quickly: Lights popped in front of his eyes and he felt sick and giddy.

"Voldemort -"

Easy, now," said Ted Tonks, placing a hand on Harry's shoulder and pushing him back against the cushions.  "That was a nasty crash you just had.  What happened, anyway?  Something go wrong with the bike?  Arthur Weasley overstretch himself again, him and his Muggle contraptions?"

"No," said Harry, as his scar pulsed like an open wound.  "Death Eaters, loads of them - we were chased -"

"Death Eaters?" said Ted sharply.  "What d'you mean, Death Eaters?  I thought they didn't know you were being moved tonight, I thought -"

"They knew," said Harry.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
