Chapter 1 The Morning That Changed Everything

In a neighborhood that was rather quiet and every house was the same lived a family by the last name of Dursley. There was as follows Vernon Dursley who was a big beef man with hardly any neck, and a very large mustache. He was the director of a place called Grunnings who made drills

Mrs Dursley on the other hand was a thin blonde and had a rather long neck she was the sister of Lilly Evans or formally known as Potter. She had finally spoken to her sister and they had been talking through letters for several months now. Even sent pictures along with their letters of their sons. Her sister had a boy about a month younger than her own son Dudley. The child had black hair and bright green eyes and when she first saw the picture all she could do was smile. Her son on the other hand had blonde hair and light blue eyes. He was rather big for his age but she did plan on changing that. Vernon had insisted that she spoil the boy but she really had no intention of doing that. She had no idea that the next morning would change everything.

The Next Morning

She awoke the next morning after getting dressed and looked in Dudley's room to find him still asleep she smiled to herself as she walked downstairs intending on getting breakfast made for Vernon and ready before waking up Dudley. She opened the door to get the milk that was usually left every morning and paused her eyes widened as she looked down to see a baby boy wrapped in a soft blue blanket, she recognized it as one that her sister Lilly had made herself with her nephews name on it as she had made one the same for Dudley as well. She knelt down and picked up the baby and smiled softly as she saw him open his eyes. She realized this was her nephew and she could not help the feeling she was getting inside. She saw the letter that was tucked in the blankets and opened it to see what it said.

Mrs. Petunia Dursley,

I am sorry to inform you that your sister Lilly Potter nee Evans and her Husband James Potter have been killed. I know this may be a shock to you as you and your sister had once again became close in the past year. I know you are aware that they were in hiding and that I do not need to go into details of all of this with you. I do however have a request of you and that is that you watch over young Harry. That you treat him as you would your own son and when the time comes let him know of our world. I ask that you do everything you can to make sure your husband does not harm the boy as I know that he is not as open to our world with my talks with Lily.

There is also one other thing that happened that night that you should be aware of. In the moment the potters realized that Voldemort was coming up to the gate the instantly knew they had to protect Harry. It is everyone's guess that James tried to hold him off to give lily time to run as he was found first near the top of the stairs. Lilly on the other hand was found in front of Harry's cot as if she was protecting him. That is what stopped Voldemort from succeeding in killing him was that lily sacrificed herself for Harry to keep him safe. He tried to kill young Harry but his spell backfired and he disappeared. No one is sure what really happened to him but I fear that he is not truly gone. I ask that you take Harry in to provide a protection that only you can give him. A blood protection that can protect him far better than anyone else and the only way it can happen is if Harry resides with you and your family as you are his only blood relatives. I know this will be a bug adjustment for you but I hope you will take all this in and allow young Harry to stay with you. If you need anything Miss Figg knows how to reach me.

Sincerely,

Albus Dumbledore

As she looked down at the baby in her arms tears began to fall down her face. She looked down at the Harry and at that moment he opened his eyes and she saw the bright green that was once her sisters looking up at her and in that moment she knew that no matter what Vernon said she would take care of Harry. She would do it for her sister and to give him the best life she could.

"I promise you Harry that no matter what I will take Care of you." She reached down and rubbed the boys cheek softly and smiled when a small coo came from him.

She grabbed the milk bottles and hurried into the house she was not looking forward to when Vernon woke up to find Harry here but she would deal with that when it came as for now she wanted to finish getting breakfast done before waking up Dudley.
