Chapter 1- "Finding out and meeting Dad"

Two weeks into the summer holidays found Harry Potter thinking of a way to sneak out of his relatives home to go see Remus Lupin. Remus had sent Harry an owl earlier that week asking him to meet him and a "friend" at the Leaky Cauldron on Saturday at 5:30pm. It was July 1st and Vernon Dursley and the rest of Harry's miserable family were planning on leaving him alone for the following week depending on how well he behaved Sunday. Little did Harry know that he more than likely would not be returning to Private Drive after the day was over. It's a little after 5 so I guess I should head on out', Harry thought as he raised his wand hand for the Knight Bus. When Stan started to do his usual welcome to Harry, all Harry did was glare at him and say "the Leaky Cauldron now please Stan." Stan immediately backed off, most people were afraid of Harry's temper after some of the crap that happens when he loses it.

A few minutes later Harry was walking into the Leaky Cauldron, ignoring everyone and there whispers, looking for Remus. Harry found Remus standing by the stairs waiting for him in a more relaxed stance then was usual for the werewolf.

"Hey Harry, why don't you just follow me up to the room before we talk. This isn't really something that you will want everyone knowing yet." Remus said as he turned and started up the stairs and down the hallway to room 111. Ironically enough every time Harry has ever been in a room in the Leaky Cauldron it has always been room 111.

"Sure thing Remus. But what was so important? Is it something that Dumbledore," Harry sneered the name of his mentor, "doesn't want me to know, or has something happened to one of my friends?"

"No, Harry nothing has happened to any of your friends. This is something that more than likely Dumbledore will most likely not be happy with me telling you about at all. Lets just wait until we get in the room before me and my friend tell you. Ok Harry."

"Sure thing Remus. But just who exactly is your friend?"

"Harry it's not exactly someone you like that much though you have started to get along just fine with his son here lately and he is here too. So please just be nice to him for my sake."

"Remus, please tell me it's not Lucius Malfoy. Please, please, please, don't let it be Malfoy Sr. You know we don't get along."

"Harry, it is Lucius. But, before you say anything just know that I trust him with my life and have for almost 20 years or longer. Were...well to put simply, were lovers."

'Oh god, Remus is in a relationship with my boyfriends dad who I cant stand. What the hell is the world coming to?'Harry thought even as he said "Sure Remus I'll be nice" as he was opening the door.

As soon as Harry opened the door he was dragged into a huge hug followed by a very deep and passionate kiss by none other than Draco Malfoy. 'This is definitely a great welcome. Too bad this didn't happen much at school.' Harry broke the kiss when he heard the snickering of the two adults in the room. He was gasping for breath as Draco pulled him down onto the couch and into his arms.

"Ok Remus you got me up here and as happy as I am to see my boyfriend, what is it that you want to tell me? I would really love to find out so that I can get in some more cuddling and kissing with Draco." 'Even if his dad is here in the same room, sleeping with you who is like my second godfather.' Harry questioned as he got comfortable.

"Well Harry it might be best for Lucius to tell you part of it after I tell you what Albus wants me to tell you. This year all fifth, sixth, and seventh years will have the chance to be resorted if they wish to. I know that the hat originally wanted you in Slytherin your first year but thanks to Ron, Hagrid and a few others," Remus paused to give Draco a little look. "and this is your chance to prove that you were meant to be a Slytherin. Not to mention if you got resorted you could easily share Draco's private room in the Slytherin Dorms."

At this point both Harry and Draco along with Lucius all laughed at the thought of Harry as a true Slytherin. Draco was busy thinking about what he would do to the room to make sure that Harry would love it while Lucius was thinking that he might just have the Boy-Who-Lived as a future son-in-law and was perfectly happy with that. Harry was busy thinking about whether or not he would survive the year as a Slytherin if Ron and Hermione decided not to talk to him anymore. 'I can see it now...Ron will be calling me a traitor and a dark wizard, Hermione will stop talking to me thinking that I will start calling her a mudblood like Draco used to do. Dumbledore would be pissed because his little Golden Boy wouldn't be in the house he wanted him in. But what about Quidditch...what would happen with that since seeker was Draco's position? Would Draco try out for something else or would he try out against Harry? God I can't think anymore.'

"Well if I can get away with finally getting resorted, which I asked Dumbledore a few times last year if I could, then I think I would love that idea. Not to mention Severus might go easier on me once I'm in his house. I mean come on he never really says anything bad to the Slytherin's so it would be fun not to mention I could get help on my potions instead of people sabotaging them." Harry says as he glares at Draco, who gives him little pleading puppy dog eyes. "Draco stop, I know you wont sabotage me this year. So what was the other news since we all know that if I get resorted I will go into Slytherin? Lucius, Remus said you could tell me so what is it that Remus doesn't want to tell me?"

"Well, Harry, its about your true parentage. When at the Ministry this past month, in a raid I found a file that was suppose to be hidden away that the Minister had on his desk to read through later. It had your name on it so I picked it up. James wasn't your true father Harry, it was Tom Riddle or as he is commonly known, Lord Voldemort. That means that you technically have power over all of his death eaters and if he gains control of the wizarding world you would one day take charge when or if he dies. I know this is a shock to you but it's all true, I had Remy here get a sample of your blood from Poppy when he went to Hogwarts to get his wolfsbane from Severus. I did a test on it and the results prove that you are the heir to all of the Dark Lords power." Lucius said as he stared intently at Harry to see his reaction to this news. He left out the part about Draco being marked in a few days because the Dark Lord wanted to make sure that if anything was to ever happen to Lucius he would still have the Malfoy support.

"Wait a minute your telling me that Voldemort is my father. So does that mean that mum had a thing with him while married to James? I really wish my life would quit getting changed so much. I finally start to take control of it and it gets turned upside down. Wait, Remus why did you just clutch your left forearm...that's where the dark mark is burned on death eaters and Lucius did the same thing at the same time. Wait a minute Draco is marked too, isn't he?" Harry said even as he clutched at his forehead.

"No, Harry I'm not marked yet I just have a temporary mark that means I am to be marked soon. In fact I'm going to be marked in a few days. Right now the Dark Lord is mainly calling the followers who he is pissed at which is not either of the people here or Severus." Draco said as he tried to calm Harry down.

"Harry, I've been a death eater for many years. Mainly when I realized that I loved Lucius, the Dark Lord made it possible for me and Lucius to be bonded even though he was married. Lucius is what kept me alive when Sirius was locked up. That and taking care of Draco when Narcissa was being a bitch and Lucius was at work. Then again most of the time it was me and Lucius taking care of Draco. Hence why you noticed when other Slytherin's were not around he was nice to me at school. If you want, since Lucius has filed for a divorce, you can come live with us in Malfoy Manor for the rest of the summer whether Albus agrees or not. See Albus never wanted you to know that Tom was your father, he arranged for Lily to marry James whether she wanted to or not. Tom didn't know she was pregnant with you when they broke up thanks to Albus. According to Severus, who has seen the memories, Albus gave your mother a potion that would change your looks until you turned 16 and made her believe she was in love with James. Lets simply say when Tom found out he was furious, we told him this just a few weeks ago after we made sure the blood test was correct. He did land Bella in a coma for two weeks, which is fine with me. Bella was adamant it was all a lie and that we had fallen into Dumbledore's trap, Tom knows that I am close to Albus and would be able to tell if he messed with my mind. The same with Severus and Sirius. Yes, Sirius is a death eater also. Tom did say however that the choice is entirely yours. You can either take your rightful place at his side and have your own death eaters or you can join him but just lead with him so you can take his place or lastly you can just be his son and have no allegiance to him but that leaves you at risk to Dumbledore. It's your choice Harry, we aren't going to force you. But just so you know, we are planning a way to get back at Albus considering Lucius and I tried to get permission to let you live with us growing up but Dumbledore would have nothing of it."

'What the hell is going on, I finally have a father. One that I should have always had if it wasn't for Dumbledore's damn tricks. I hate Dumbledore, Lucius is actually being really nice and is treating me as if I am family already, and he's offered me a place to stay at his house. I even have a chance to get to really know Voldemort not just what Dumbledore tells me about him.'"I think that I want to have a father, and I want to get the hell away from the Dursley's as soon as possible. I think I am going to take my father up on the joining him and having my own followers that is if he will let me choose who some of them are. I don't want to have anything to do with Bella unless it includes torturing her ass. What do you think Draco, think I could be a good death eater?"

"Uh, Harry are you sure you want to do this? I mean if you do there is no way in hell that Granger and Weasley will want to be your friends anymore. Are you willing to give up there friendship to have your father? Because personally I think you would be a great Death Eater. Your temper is perfect and it is a hell of a lot like your fathers." replies Draco as he slowly rubs circles on Harry's lower back making him purr softly.

"I finally know the truth, not to mention that last time I was in Dumbledore's office I heard the hat saying that if it wasn't for letters Albus had sent out a few weeks before I went to Hogwarts then I would have been in Slytherin where I belonged. So I think there is far more to this than Dumbledork is willing to tell us and I want to know my father for who he really is. Not to mention from what I gather there are still a few people that he allows to call him Tom. I'm guessing that would be...Remus, Sirius, Lucius, and Severus at the very least since obviously they are the ones that he trusts with finding me and making sure I'm safe or telling me things that most people would keep from me for there own gains. I want this. I really, really want this. So, when do I get to see my father again and can I seriously move into Malfoy Manor with you guys?" Harry asked with pleading eyes.

All three in the room started to laugh at Harry practically rambling off for a bit about stuff they all knew. They reassured Harry that he could move into Malfoy Manor, and told him about how the Dark Lord basically lived there most of the time unless the Ministry was coming then he went back to Riddle Manor and when that happened he often took Remus with him so that the Ministry didn't know anything was going on since Lucius still had to act as though Remus was nothing but a piece of dirt even if it hurt him. Remus basically assured Harry that if the Ministry was to ever come to the Manor that summer than he would go to Riddle Manor with him and his father. Often when that happened Sirius and Severus would show up and they would talk for a bit before Lucius and Draco came.

It was a few hours later that Harry took them back with him to Private Drive to get what little possessions he had to take to Malfoy Manor. When they got in Vernon started to lash out at Harry and attempted to punch him in the stomach but got hit by Remus and Lucius instead while Harry and Draco started to laugh. 'Well it looks like Vernon is finally getting what is due to him after all these years. Its about damn time, and by the look on Lucius' face I am glad he can't use and unforgivable right now because if he could I'm sure he would kill Vernon for trying to hit me.' Harry almost asked Remus and Lucius to stop but was having way too much fun seeing his uncle get his due. He dragged Draco over to the Cupboard and got his trunk out and pulled up a couple of boards and grabbed some things he stashed that he had drawn or wrote when he was younger or in the past few summers. One especially since now that he looked at it he realized it was a picture of him standing with Tom Riddle behind him, Draco, Lucius, and Remus to his right with Sirius and Severus on his left. Under the picture it said "My True Family", Remus and Lucius finally stopped beating up Vernon and looked over at the boys to see the picture in Harry's hands.

Harry spent the next few minutes remembering that he had done this on his eleventh birthday after he had had a dream envisioning the same thing as in the picture but living everyday life. When Harry explained this to Remus, Lucius, and Draco they all got looks on the faces as if they had had similar dreams at one point in time in their lives. After that Harry dragged the trunk, with the help of Draco, up to his room, and after getting the adults to unlock the door and locks showed them his small room. The room still had bars on the window since Vernon decided he didn't want any of Harry's freaky friends to fly into the house, Hedwig looked as though she could use some time out of her cage and some better food then what Harry had been able to give her. When Harry explained the circumstances he had been living under to Lucius and Draco, since Remus knew and was helping put things in his trunk, Lucius basically said that whether Harry liked it or not the Dursley's were coming with them so that Tom could decide their punishment for how they treated his son. Harry couldn't decide whether or not to be happy that they were going to be punished, or if he should be worried about how bad the punishment would be. Hell they had locked him up in a bloody cupboard as a child, they deserved what they get.

With everything packed they set out for Malfoy Manor and Harry's new life. They all even agreed that they would all go out shopping, even in the muggle world, for clothes for Harry since most of his were from Dudley and therefore too big. That alone surprised Harry because it was Lucius Malfoy agreeing to go into Muggle London shopping for clothes. Once they got to Malfoy Manor Draco led Harry up to his rooms since it was in a wing that Lucius and Remus barely went to and they had both agreed that the boys were old enough to share a bed and a room since they both knew that they had done the same thing at that age. The next day Harry and Tom were to meet and discuss what they were going to do about Dumbledore and get to know each other better as father and son. Not to mention figuring out whether or not Harry should start to go by another name, adopting his father's last name of Riddle or stay a Potter. Either way he would still have the money in the Potter vault but he would get his fair share from his father too. Thanks to Voldemort finding out that one of his most trusted was not yet cleared by the Ministry, Sirius, he turned over Peter Pettigrew with a signed confession telling of how he turned the Potters whereabouts over to Voldemort after being ordered to by none other than Albus Dumbledore, once Dumbledore found out that the Secret Keeper was switched at the last moment. In the confession it went on to explain that Dumbledore knew he was a spy and had the Potters make him Secret Keeper, by using Sirius, so that he could frame Sirius, sending him to prison, and thus making Harry the savior of the Wizarding World if only for a short time.

When Harry found out that his father went to such great lengths to make sure that Harry had at least a little bit of family and so that Severus and Sirius could get married like they had wanted to do before Peter turned on them, he was extremely happy. Not to mention that by getting rid of Pettigrew, most of the death eaters were actually rather happy and were showing their master what they could do to the best of their abilities like they did before Pettigrew became a death eater. The only reason Peter became one according to his father was that his friends were joining that side so he thought he could too. Voldemort even went so far as to have three spies in the Order with only one of them being known to the order, Sirius, Remus and Severus. Severus being the one that the Order knew about being a spy.

After they talked about that it became time to get down to business. Harry decided that he wanted Draco to be in on the names thing since he hoped to one day be bonded with him, which surprised his father but not the others. Even Sirius and Severus were in the room helping him pick out names. Most suggestions were shot down by both Harry and Draco. They did decide however that Harry was going to have two middle names both Tom and Marvolo. If he didn't have two middle names then they were going to at least keep Marvolo since Harry liked it so much. Finally they decided on Dustin Marvolo Riddle, after about 3 hours that is. Lucius had the paperwork there so that all they had to do was write down Harry's old name then what it was changing to since his true parentage came out. Along with that it had to have the Parents signature, 3 witnesses over legal age, and the signature of the child if they were at least 13 years old. So with all of that done Harry James Potter officially became Dustin Marvolo Riddle. Lucius made sure that when OWL results and Hogwarts letters were to be sent out that the Board of Governors along with Dumbledore would be notified then.

Dustin and Tom spent the rest of the afternoon wandering around Malfoy Manor until Dinner was ready. They talked about anything and everything that came to mind as long as it wasn't the Dursley's since they had all agreed that would be talk for later in the week once Draco was marked and Dustin as well. They both agreed that to all the death eaters except Sirius, Severus, Remus, Lucius, and Draco, Dustin was to be called the Dark Prince. In Dustin's own little group he would pick his own name to be called and could pick his own followers from his friends at school. They both agreed that he would be sorted into Slytherin and if Granger and Weasley didn't want to have anything to do with him then that was their loss and he was allowed to retaliate in any way. Dustin was beginning to like having a family, especially since both him and his father had grown up as outcasts where they lived. When dinner was called everyone headed towards the dinning hall. Dustin sat down next to Draco while his father sat next to Lucius and Remus. All together they were one big happy family especially with Severus and Sirius there as well. They all decided that the next day they would take Dustin shopping after using charms on his scar. After that when they got back they would head to Riddle Manor and stay there for a few days to prepare for the Death Eater meeting which would induct Draco and mark Dustin as the Dark Prince.
