Marvolo's POV
He was making his way through Muggle London. He was to deliver a child's Hogwarts letter. He growled when he saw the orphanage. It reminded him too much of his own when he was younger. When he knocked on the door a woman with black hair and cold blue eyes answered.
He said," I am here to speak with Harrison Lykos."
She said coldly," That will be a little difficult Mr.?"
He said confused," Riddle. Marvolo Riddle. Why would that be difficult?"
The woman said taking him to a meeting room," Harrison is mute. He has been since his brother's disappearance."
With that she left him to go find the child in question. :So a mute wizard. How interesting. Hopefully he is at least intelligent. That last name though..."
Lykos the Japanese word for Wolf. For over a hundred years both wolves and werewolves had been extinct. No one knew exactly why. Many thought it was because they were said to bring the end to the war between light order and dark order.
His attention was drawn to the door when it opened. A black haired young man with piercing green eyes walked in. He asked standing," Are you Harrison Lykos?"
The boy tilted his head to the side considering him before he nodded. It seemed he was intelligent even though he was mute. He could see a notebook was pressed into the boy's chest and a pen was sticking out of it. At least he could communicate that was something.
He sat down at the table and wrote out,' Yes i am. Who are you?'
Marvolo nodded as he too sat down," I am Marvolo Riddle. I have come to deliver your Hogwarts letter and take you to get your supplies."
He stopped as he was going to enter an explanation. The boy had started writing. It said,' Hogwarts? As in the school for Witches and Wizards? Does that mean im a wizard?'
He was surprised that the boy knew of Hogwarts. He knew for a fact that this was a muggle orphanage. As if sensing his question the boy wrote out quickly,' Big brother came from a Wizarding family. They were killed when he was very young.'
That begged the question who was this big brother and why did he disappear. For now though he would have to push aside his questions. He could have Abraxes look into it when he returned. He had to take the child to get his supplies.
Lykos POV
This man intruiged him. He smelled of darkness and lunar flowers. It was a rare combination. Humans that had the scent of luna flowers tended to change the world's fate. At least thats what Kiba told him. He frowned at the thought of his older brother.
Four years ago the brown haired boy had up abd disappeared. Like him, Kiba was part Wolf. They hid amongst the humans to hide the fact they were still in existance. The humans wanted nothing more than to use them to stop their wars. Most wolves fled to the remote mountains. A handle like Lykos and Kiba were abandoned by their pack or orphaned.
He was proud of his wolf heritage and spent his nights going through the streets in it. While he was proud he was not stupid. If any human were to see him in that form they would either capture or kill him. So he watched the humans interact with one another from a safe distance.
Throughout the morning he and Mr. Riddle went from shop to shop buying neccessary school supplies. He kept a close eye on which ones interested him so that he could come back at a later date. He even convinced the stoic teacher to let him buy a book on wolves and their history.
They ate at the pub for lunch and Mr. Riddle insisted on paying for both of their lunches. After lunch they went to get his wand. He jumped out of his skin when a white haired man came out from the shelves. The man's scent was of wood and ash.
The man said looking at the teacher," Mr. Riddle I remember your wand. Yew and phoenix feather 13 inches. I dont recognize you young man. What is your name?"
Lykos wrote out,' Lykos, Harrison. Who are you?'
The man smiled and said," Well Mr. Lykos i am Oliverander. I am a wand maker. What arm is your wand arm."
He lifted his right arm to show him hid answer. The man then took measurements of his arm.
After a few moments the man held out a wand to him. Olivevander said," Yew and Dragon heartstring 10 inches."
He held it almost fearfully and the man said annoyed," Well give it a wave."
He really should not have listened to the man. For when he did wave the wand it made a lamp explode. Fearfully and gently he placed the wand back on the counter. They went through wand after wand after wand. It seemed like they would never find the one for him.
In his downtrodden state he lost the tight reign he had over his emotions. His eyes flickered briefly showing just a hint of gold. Olivevander's own eyes widened.
The man said breathily," It has been a long time since i have seen one of you Mr. Lykos. Not since the brown haired one with piercing blue eyes stepped into my shop."
Kiba! So his brother was alive! The man went well into the back of his store. When he returned he was carrying three boxes. One sang to him it sounded like his brother's howl. Ignoring the wizards he made his way to the box. As he did the song got louder and the tension drained from him.
When he picked up the wand his eyes flashed completely gold for a brief moment. Before returning to their usual green. Out of the wand shot green, silver, and gold sparks. The howl peaked at that exact moment before quieting once more.
Olivevander said staring at the wand," Lunar flower dew and ash 12 inches. I never thought i would sell another wand like this one. Mr. Lykos you are very intriguing. I wonder if you will follow the same path as young Kiba or will you follow your own path. Two of a kind. So much alike and yet so different."
He tilted his head to the side and gave the man a childish grin. He had his wand now so he was happy. He then was returned to the orphanage.
The month passed quickly for him. He spent his time reading or searching for Kiba. When the day came the professor returned bring him to King's cross. They stood in front of the sign that said Platform 9 and 10.
The man pushed him through without warning. He could feel the magic on his skin and it made him shudder. Then they were through the magical barrier. A bright red and gold train was in front of them. It made his heart leap with joy.
The professor said coldly," Mr. Lykos this is where i leave you. Get on the train and don't cause any trouble i will see you at the sorting."
With that he was gone. Lykos being the good wolf he was got his stuff on the train.
