I just wanted to say that I am not abandoning my other story "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince V1" I am just writing this because it has been in my head for a long time. Also I want everyone to know that I got this idea from Reading "Harry Crow" by the incredible Robst but i do not believe that i will take anything from his story. If i do please point it out so that I can correct it. Also as everyone should know I do not own the Harry Potter franchise. Thanks for reading.

P.S. Also I am from America so if I get anything wrong about England it is not on purpose. I will let you know that this chapter will be based off American school system. Again thanks fro reading and I hope you like this.

Prologue

In the quiet house of #4 Privet Drive a young boy turned restlessly in his little makeshift bed under the hallway stairs. The boy had jet black hair and piercing green eyes. He was laying on his front covered in a thin, holey, light blue blanket. The reason for him turning restlessly was a dream. He was dreaming about a young couple the man had black hair and brown eyes while the woman had red hair and green eyes. They were running throughout a house, though he does not know who the couple is, he does know that he has seen them from somewhere. The young man runs to the stairs then tells the women something and she shakes her head, he gives her a kiss and kisses the baby, then turns around and runs into another room. The woman runs up the stairs and enters a baby's room; she is crying but has a determined look on her face. She had just sat the baby into the crib when another man enters the room. He has red eyes and is wearing a black hooded robe. He points a stick at the women and she says something then there is a flash of green light. The young boy shot up out of his bed and flinched. On his back were numerous scars and some fresh cuts as well. As he lay back onto his makeshift bed you could see that on his forehead was a scar in the shape of a lightning bolt. The boy's name was Harry Potter and here is where his story begins.

Chapter One – The Beginning

It was the First of September and for the first time in his life Harry Potter was excited. It was the first day of school and he just knew that he would find a friend. His Aunt unlocked his door saying that he had to leave for school in five minutes. Harry used the bathroom then began his walk to school. His school was only one mile down the road but even though his cousin would be getting dropped off, he had to walk so as to not be seen with his cousin Dudley.

He had just gotten to the school when the bell rang for class to start. He did not know what classroom he was supposed to go to but he did know that he had the same class as Dudley so he just followed his obese cousin into the class. Once they arrived Harry looked around and noticed that Dudley's friends were in that classroom as well. So Harry chose the only seat that he could find in the back of the class. As the teacher began to call role, Harry noticed that there was a girls sitting in front of Dudley that was really pretty she had bushy, brown hair, and chocolate brown eyes. She did have larger than normal front teeth but harry thought that she was still rather beautiful. While he was staring at the girl he did not notice the teacher get to his desk until she cleared her throat at him.

Harry blushed and then looked up at the teacher. "Yes Ma'am?" harry asked.

"Is your name Harry Potter?" She asked kindly. Harry just shrugged because he did not know his name. As he did so the action made his back hurt again. The teacher noticed his pain and guessed the reason. She smiled at him then wrote on her notebook as she proceeded to the front of the classroom.

It was not until recess that he was asked anything else. As he sat down with his school book to read he noticed that his cousin was making fun of the brown haired girl. He watched the girl ignore his cousins insults then he saw his cousin grab her book and throw it down, then his cousin did something that made harry react unlike any time that he can remember, he grabbed the girl by her hair and pulled her up then smacked her across the face. Harry did know what made him get up and go to the girls' defense but he just knew that he had to do something.

"Hey Dudley' Harry yelled 'leave her alone"

Dudley turned towards his cousin then said "oh yeah four eyes what are you going to do about it?"

Harry just said "I will tell the teacher."

Dudley just laughed and said "please like anyone would believe you. The people here know better than to tell on me."

Unknown to the two boys their teacher had just came around the corner and heard and saw everything that had just happened. She ran over and told them to report to the principal's office immediately. Once they were in the office the principals pulled each person inside one at a time to tell their side of the story. It was not until they were done that harry found out that his aunt and uncle had been called and that they would be there in a fifteen minutes to pick him up.

"Uh Principal Harthen?" the teacher inquired. "Can I speak with you for a second please?" He nodded his head then they went into his office. As the teacher and principal was in the office harry tried to talk to the girl but she refused to even look at him unless it was the quick glances over the top of the book. The Principal was only in his office for a couple of minutes when he walked out with the teacher. He told her to call who she needed to then he would stall them for a second. She nodded then used the phone. As this was going on the girls' parents arrived at the office. The man was at least 6 foot tall, maybe more, and he was at the most 235 pounds. This was not fat though, no, he was all muscle. He had light brown hair and blue eyes. His wife was a little shorter than him and looked like an older version of the little girl. They walked over to the little girls and asked her what happened. She told them then pointed to Harry.

They walked over to harry and the man said "I would like to thank you for standing up for our daughter." Harry just nodded then said "It was nothing, sir," Harry then walked over to the girl and said "Sorry about not introducing myself earlier but any way, may name is Harry Potter, what is yours?" She smiled at him then said "My name is Hermione, Hermione Granger."

As soon as harry sat down beside Hermione and her parents his aunt and uncle arrived. The Grangers noticed Harry shrinking back into his seat. The Dursleys had just looked over at Harry and yelled "BOY WHAT DID YOU DO TO OUR SON?" At this the teacher stood and said "Mr. Dursley, please refrain from yelling in this office or I shall have you escorted from the premises." That did not stop Vernon Dursley in the slightest he just yelled louder "WE TOOK YOU IN AND GAVE YOU FOOD AND SHELTER. WE LET YOU HAVE YOUR OWN ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY US. BY MAKING FUN OF OUR SON, THEN TELLING THE TEACHER AND THE PRINCIPAL A LIE SO THAT HE WOULD GET INTO TROUBLE AND YOU GET INTO THE TEACHERS GOOD GRACES. WELL I WILL NOT HAVE IT, I AM GOING TO BEAT YOU WITHIN AN INCHE OF YOUR LIFE THEN I WILL FINALLY LET YOU JOIN YOUR ALCOHOLIC, DEAD BEAT FATHER AND YOUR DISEASE INFESTED WHORE OF A MOTHER." He then made a mistake that would cost him dearly. He grabbed Harry only to scream and drop harry onto the ground. He fell to his knees and grabbed his hands like they were on fire.

As Vernon was crying on the floor Petunia heard the one voice she never wanted to hear ever again. "You leave my son alone Petunia" The words were said so silently that it was almost a whisper but everyone could feel the coldness in them. There in the doorway stood the same man and women that were in Harry's dream. There at the doorway stood Lily and James Potter. As soon as harry saw them three things happened at once. Petunia fainted, Hermione also fell out of her chair, though she looked tired more than anything and Harry just cried because he knew now that everything was going to get better.
