This is a shorter chapter because I want to have an answer about a certain question.
The John character, I need to know what you want about him. Is he going to be an OC. is he going to be from a mirror reality? (where he is the boy who lived, hell imagine that huh?)
Anyway,
For now I'm going to keep it mysterious.

PART 03
One month later:
Harry and Dudley were celebrating. Their revenge had been a complete and utter success. The arrest had been very loudly. In fact, thanks to an anonymous tip, several TV crews send out live reports about these pathetic excuses for human beings. Harry and Dudley had decided that they would let things run their course. They were pretty certain that neither adult had any change to get out of this. Besides, kid abusers were the lowest scum imaginable in prison. Even lower then killers. Vernon and petunia would be in for one hell of a ride.
What surprised both boys the most was that an old man tried several times to prevent petunia and Vernon from being persecuted. He even went so far as to modify their memories. Thankfully, the charms that both boys had left behind, did not tolerate such behavior, and the old man was forcefully removed from the property. To top it all, the old man didnÆt give up. In fact he tried again three times. Harry and Dudley heard him mutter something about blood wards. That made them research the term, which led them to the discovery that there was some sort of protection around the area of the Dursleys.
The protection was focused in protecting the adults. Why? Why was the protection based on the adults and not on them? They were used to activate the blood wards in the first place! The protection was a bit twisted. It did not matter if the members of the house hated or loved each other. As long as the adults were willing to accept the boys, the blood magic worked. Harry and Dudley started to study very hard. They read the books, and tried the magic. They discovered that for rituals and more advanced magic a focus was recommended.
What kind of focus they meant wasnÆt mentioned, so both boys decided to see if there was some sort of mall were they could buy there supplies.
The end of augustà
Both boys were sitting in their study room. Both were reading when Harry looked at Dudley and said: Dudley, I think we forgot something. Dudley looked up and simply asked: what? Our school work. We wonÆt be able to go to college if we havenÆt finished elementary school. Dudley hit himself on the head and said: dammit you are right! Maybe we could hire a private teacher? Yhea right replied Harry, and what for an adult do you think is willing to live underground, for a whole year for free? Just as he had finished that sentence the first alarm went off. That meant someone had discovered the entrance of the network. Both boys looked at the other in panic. Then they grinned. Yes you read it correctly, they grinned. And not a nice smile but a: the cat just at the canary smile or the: the cat is just about to eat the canary. Well, you get the picture.
With Dudley
Dudley ran as fast as his legs could carry him to the security room. They had spent quit a bit of time to build some security in their headquarters. The defenses were not lethal at first. Well, maybe they were lethal but Harry and Dudley could decide which defenses they would use.
Dudley started the right computer program that he privately called: Eliminator a la Dudley version 1.0. He chuckled every time he called it that. He shook his head and concentrated on his job. He activated the security cameras, and the first barriers to trap the intruder. Of course if the man was magical, then it wouldnÆt keep him for long, or that was Dudley's opinion. This was also a perfection opportunity to test their defenses. Dudley frowned. The man was just a few steps before the trap. Dudley couldnÆt lock down the main entrance because he hadnÆt been able to figure out a silent and quick way to do that. The stranger was saying something. Dudley cursed and activated his audio programs to hear what the guy was saying. Just as he activated the program, he heard the door slide open and Harry entered the room with a gun and a few flash bang grenades.
With Harry
Harry sprinted into the other direction and entered their weapon chamber.
They didnÆt have many weapons because neither felt comfortable in using guns.
They did buy a few pressure guns, they would be able to harm if fired, but wouldnÆt be lethal. Of course, if you shoot someone in the head with a bullet like that, it would be likely the victim would never wake up again. Harry was the one who had purchased a few guns of this type so they didnÆt have to waste time in reloading the guns. If this intruder was hostile, then they had to knock him out at the least. After that they would figure out what the guy wanted after he was secured. Harry now had loaded four handguns and two machine-guns that fired those bullets you see on a shoot stand.
Harry didnÆt want to have REAL weapons, these were enough. They had one real weapon, with live iron bullets. But Dudley and Harry had both agreed to NOT use it unless the intruder was a serial killer out for their blood. Said guns were their heavy weapons. They would use those if the intruder didnÆt want to talk. They had a few lighter weapons as well. Sling shots. Wellà improved, magical slingshots to be precise. This was something that Dudley was proud of. How Dudley had done it, he didnÆt know at first, but it appeared that the slingshot fired æstunÆ bullets. They didnÆt know how to explain it otherwise.
Harry snapped out of his thoughts and looked at his watch. Damn he had wasted five minutes; he had to go back to Dudley quickly! Harry put the weapons away and quickly locked the weapon room down and then hurried to the security room.
The door opened with a slide and after it closed again, he locked it down with their agreed codes. If the intruder would manage to break trough, then hopefully their concealed security room would be overlooked.
Harry looked at Dudley and noticed he had just activated their audio programs.
-I repeat myself: I know that you two have taken control of this base Harry and Dudley. I have no weapons. I will keep my hands in plain sight. How do I know this is a question you will be asking? I am not a native member of this reality/world. I am from a different world. Obviously IÆm no alien, IÆm human. But this base has a large part to do with it. I never thought that someone was able to enter it.
Should we answer asked Harry quietly? I think we should. Or at least get him to set a few more steps. If we can stun him with our slingshots, we can make sure he hasnÆt any devices on him. My scans arenÆt clear, and if I canÆt use my other equipment IÆm at a loss if he speaks the truth. The man was repeating his words again and just as he had finished Dudley activated their microphone.
Oy, you donÆt have to repeat yourself over and over again you know. We have heard you just fine. Just wait there and donÆt move a muscle, and when we have decided we let you know. Or better yet, if you follow the hallway there is a turn to the right. There is a seat of stone. Go there and make yourself comfortable.
The man froze for a moment and then slowly walked forward without any sudden movements.
Back with H&D
DonÆt activate the first trap yet, let him come deeper. After he takes that turn we can activate the trap. It will slow him down if he tries to run.
Harry nodded and kept watching the video screen at what the guy was doing.
The man did what he was told and once he took the turn, he did indeed encounter a seat of stone. The man chuckled privately. Those boys had protected his old base very tightly.

As you have read, I have let the options open. I can make the space ship a technological with magical modifications to travel in time without restrictions. (picture the first ship of star gate Sg1. the Daedalus.

But a bit smaller. (it has to be able to expand in a base a la c&c. you know the truck that is your main base, like that.
just so I have said it, the guns are those 'kid' guns. the ones you can shoo with on a carnaval. but in a handgun version. I can assure you that if used in close ranger, they can hurt you a LOT.
I really want an answer on the questions I asked earlier. I don't want to do something clichÚ, not when i have a semi original approach.
