Eleven year old Harry James Potter giggled as his best friend in the whole world chased him with a water balloon. Their families were all around them, eating the BBQ dinner that they had for his birthday. Harry was now ready to join his friend at his school. A school for Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Harry, however, wasn't a normal wizard. In fact, he was extraordinary. He was a Bakeneko. A cat shapeshifter demon. His hair was deep brown, almost black with a redish tint to it, his eyes were catlike and were green, finally, his skin was really pale. On his head, was two cat ears that matched his hair color, just like his split tail. He was also the one who destroyed Voldemort ten years ago, when he had been sixteen. On his seventeenth birthday, he had taken a potion to de-age himself. While he didn't remember anything from his past, he did know that he knew Elias Bishop, his best friend. He had a feeling it had to do with why he was so comfortable around the teen, and with the mark on his neck.

It was a grey wolf like tattoo.

"Elias!" Harry squawked as the teen managed to land the attack. The fifteen year old laughed back, running away and to the lake in the backyard of Château de parfums, his family home. "You'll pay for that, Eli!" Harry ran after Elias, flipping over Sirius's chair, landing with a water gun firmly in his hands. Elias winced when ice water hit him right in the bare chest.

"Harry."

"Don't you just love payback?" Teased the younger boy, using his tails to tickle Elias's chest. The veela got a glazed look as a blush dust his cheeks. Harry stopped, tilting his head in confusion. "Eli?" Hearing laughter, Harry looked at Nate, Elias's brother. "What did I do?"

"You'll understand when you're older." Elias said, coming out of his daze. Unlike Harry, Elias had all his memories due to having copies placed in a pensive. Since he was little, Elias knew Harry was his mate. That he had to protect the small boy. Especially since the eleven year old had been through so many traumas.

"Uncle Sirius, Nate, what did I do? What isn't he telling me?"

"Wait until you're at least fourteen, Harry!" Sirius placated. "I promise, everything will make sense then. Where is Lorcan, wasn't he flying just a minute ago?"

"Him and Lyra are off doing something. Sirius, are they mates?" The boy had just happened to say that as Sirius was taking a drink of firewhiskey. The alcohol burned on it's way out of his nose.

"Where did you hear that?"

"In a book I found at the school's library." By school, he meant the muggle one he went to since he was five. "I wanted to know why they were acting weird, so I looked up cat behavior." Harry tilted his head. "Does that mean I have to mate too, one day?"

"Er...Remy, Sev, help?"

"You're on your own, mutt." The other adults seemed to disappear along with every child.

"Sirius?"

"Okay, you know the mark on your neck?" Harry nodded, shivering slightly as he touched it. "It's your mate mark. Your mate has a matching mark to it."

"Who is he?"

"It's not mine to tell, Harry. When he, and you, are ready, he'll come forward." Harry nodded, shooting a questioning glance at Elias, who had just pushed Kaylie, Abri's daughter of eight years old. "Harry?"

"I think I know who it is, but I'll let him come to me." Sirius relaxed, nodding. "Sirius, can I open my presents now?" The man laughed, nodding as he waved everyone over.

From Sirius and Remus, he got a Lightning Star 69, the fastest broom model in the world.
A whole set of potions books written between Severus and Lizzy Snape from the authors themselves.
A homecare baskest from Molly and Arthur Weasley.
A bunch of candy from Ron Weasley, and a whole collection of 'How To Draw This' books from Hermione, his wife.
From Elias he got a wolf pendant, with magical protection charms placed on it, and a bunch of art materials.

He also got a bunch of toys and such from everyone else. It was late, and everyone was getting ready to go home. Harry was leaning against Elias, purring slightly, eyes closed, as the older boy rubbed his ear.
