A/N: Yo! Here is the first chapter of my newest fic. I got the idea from reading the Harry Potter story, Harry Potter and the Boy-Who-Lived. It is a fic about Harry who is in the shadow of his brother and then decides to go to Durmstraung when he cannot take the verbal abuse of his school anymore. The summary for my fic is right here:

Summary: What if Harry was the brother of the supposed boy who lived. What if he started flipping through his mother's magic books from her Hogwarts years when he was younger and knew a great deal of magic before he went to Hogwarts? What if he was denied extra tutoring and took a darker path? Harry/harem Dark Harry!

Warnings: Mentions of torture, sexual innuendo, cussing, violence, blood, and gore

Pairings: Harry/harem

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of its affiliated characters or spells. However, I do own any characters or spells that I create for the purpose of this fic. If you have some ideas for characters send me them in the reviews!

Chapter 1

Harry and his brother were anything but normal, even for magical people.

Daniel Potter, the known Boy-Who-Lived, was said to have vanquished Voldemort from a young age.

On the other hand, you had Harry, who was almost unknown to the outside world due to his quiet nature and studious side. He was a magical prodigy who took in information at an alarming rate, so much so that looking over the material once after he had read it was enough for it to stay permanently logged in his memory.

He was also heir of the Potter family, and it showed in his restrained attitude and awareness of the world around him.

Through several of Daniel's birthday parties, Harry had made a few slight connections. Not enough to be of major consequences, but enough for him to blackmail an auror for a favor or two.

Whereas Daniel loved being with his dad and playing quidditch, Harry liked staying in the library and studying.

James Potter had come out of hiding and become a quidditch pro like he had always dreamed of being. However, he often stayed home in order for him to stay out of the spotlight and train up his abilities.

Lily Potter, Harry's mother, was an ambassador for the ministry. She often went on diplomatic trips to other countries, however, when she was home, she was a great mother who regaled them in stories of her travels abroad.

Harry found that he had much more in common with his mother than he did his father, and this led to a slight rift between the family, not that anyone would notice it. It was small, but it was enough that Harry distanced himself from his father and was close to his mother and that Daniel did the opposite.

Harry had been reading for a good while. He had been reading since he was five. Of course, it had taken him about a year to finally be able to actually read and understand a full page of any of the first year materials.

It had taken him another two years to read the first year books to the fullest extent.

That left him at year two and wanting more and more. He kept up the pace and read through his year two materials in about a year and a half.

It was near the Hogwarts time that Harry finally started on the year three materials, and by the time that it was actually time for the Hogwarts letter to come, Harry had already finished his third year herbology and potions.

That was what led them to this day.

"Dad, dad," The excited voice of Daniel Potter yelled out to their father.

"What is it?" James asked, fearful that something bad had happened.

"We finally got our Hogwarts letters!" Daniel said with joy.

James worry quickly grew to excitement. "That's wonderful, Daniel!"

"Let's go find Harry and tell him the good news!" James finished.

"Where is he, anyway?" Daniel asked.

James chuckled, "We both know your brother well enough by now to know that he is in the library."

Daniel palmed his face with his hands. "I can't believe that I forgot about that. It's his favorite place, after all."

James chuckled at his son's antics, he really wasn't surprised at them at all.

The two of them rushed into the library and found Harry sitting at his usual desk and tracing a few Runic diagrams.

Harry was currently on the elective of Runes, having decided that Divination was pretty much a waste of time, however, he had flipped through the books and found that there was some useful information in them that he could probably use, even if he didn't have the talent, so, instead of completely forgoeing the information, he was just saving it till last.

"The Hogwarts letters came." Harry noted.

"How did you know about that?" James asked.

"I could hear you two and your excitement from up here, it's a wonder that the whole neighborhood isn't awake yet." Harry said with a roll of his eyes. Those two lacked the self control of a ten year old when they were together.

James and Daniel rubbed the back of their heads in manners that were similart to each other that you would wonder whether or not James was the father or the older brother.

The two also looked alike. However, Harry had the green eyes and reddish hue to his black hair that came from his mother. He also was much more agile than his brother, who had a stronger build and was suited to beater position.

Not like he would play quidditch anyway.

"So, why aren't you excited about it?" Daniel asked.

His brother confused the hell out of him sometimes.

"Because it always comes this day and we have been reserved since we were born. The only way that we wouldn't get the letter is if we were squibs." Harry said.

James blinked, he hadn't known that it had always came that day.

"How did you know that?" James asked.

"Because this is the first day that I can start practicing spells." Harry said, bouncing up and down in his seat at the prospect.

"It's against ministry rules." James said with shock.

"No, it's not. The Potter family law books talk about how the underage detector cannot tell the user of the magic within a house that has magic in it like this one does." Harry said with glee.

James was struck back, if he had known that, he would have done so many pranks.

"Fine, fine, you are allowed to practice your magic here." James relented.

Harry smirked, his father couldn't have stopped him if he wanted to.

Done! The next chapter will be Diagon Alley and Gringotts.
