Honestly life for one Harry Potter is not exactly what one might expect from a hero of children all across magical Britain they expect him to be a picture perfect hero for them but nothing is perfect and the life of one Harry James Potter is certainly not picture perfect. How about we have a look at the life of Harry after all this is his story not my own.
The sun is rising over the impeccable neighborhood of Privet drive, not a flower out of place some might call this neighborhood boring but for the residents of Privet drive boring is all they ever wanted in life after all excitement leads to adventure and well adventure leads to death and who can honestly say they want to die. No boring may be ordinary and well boring but living a boring life is much better then not living a life at all is the general consensus of this neighborhood but there are a few that they label out of place one of which is Harry James Potter. Speaking of which what could this fine young man be doing right now surely he is sleeping soundly in bed like any other child should be how about me and you go take a look.
He is currently in the kitchen trying to figure out how to cook, surely a child of not even five can't cook yet oh I know what you are thinking he must have wanted to learn how to cook so he asked his ever so kind aunt to teach him well if that is what your thinking I am disappointed in you have you really never read this story not this one but the tale of Harry James Potter I know they don't out right and say it but this story is going to have a bit of a darker out look so I am sure you know where this is going. Harry James Potter is currently scared out of his life he is trying his hardest to get the bacon just right for his uncle and aunt but the burns on his hands are making it almost impossible it concentrate but he dares not to make a sound after all everyone else is sleeping and a no good freak like him should just make the food and shut up.
He still remembers the last time he messed up the bacon that frying pan hurt a lot he could not think straight for the entire day the last time and he wanted to do nothing more than close his eyes but he had chores to do. So he continued to burn his hands trying his best to cook even though he knew it was in vain even if he got the cooking perfect the burns on his hands would make a lot of his other chores almost impossible which would earn him another beating better to finish this though his aunt is a lot more vicious then his uncle.
If one would take one good look at Harry James Potter anyone would immediately jump to abuse as the cause of his skinny frame and his shy bordering completely closed behavior but there lies the problem they would have to take one good look at him which is almost impossible every time someone tried there eyes would simply ignore him it got so bad in class that people thought that the 5 year old was constantly skipping class even though his name was always checked of in the attendance and his work was turned in every day.
Of course this miracle of the eyes seem to have failed him for his relatives in fact anytime he was in the room there focus would zoom in on him no matter what they were doing in fact he has gotten one or two beatings for distracting them while they were doing something important.
Harry takes a quick glance at the clock in the hallway hoping beyond hope that time would slow down so he could finish while he was glancing at the clock he had enough time to look at himself. He stands at 3'3 not exactly that bad off yet but clearly the shortest in his class, his hair is as always a mess of raven locks but if you look close enough you can see streaks of red, he has a red and ragged looking lighting shaped scar just above his round glasses. Which leads us to his most amazing feature his emerald colored eyes that spark as if lightning is contained in them.
Now is not the time to examine his own looks no Harry must concentrate on cooking after all he only has ten minutes left before his aunt wakes up. Boy do those minutes fly fast but victory is almost in the horizon he just has to move the last piece of bacon onto the plate almost there. "FREAK ARE STILL NOT DONE SOME OF US HAVE THINGS TO DO WE CAN'T AFORD TO LAZE ABOUT LIKE YOU!" His aunt screeches out.
(That is going to get old fast so just going to say this anytime I use a ! that person is yelling in
caps I know it's fairly obvious but I am just saving you and me some time)
"No aunt I am just finishing now in fact I am done everyone can eat now." Harry quickly shuffles the plates onto the table making sure not to leave any of his burnt skin on the plates. His answer seems to have satisfied his aunt it's not like his uncle or cousin are up yet but he dares not expose his opinion less he get's beat for it. "Well freak you did get everything right but you were twenty seconds late so you only get half of what you usually get!" once again she screeches this out.
Well that's just great instead of getting two pieces of toast he get's one but that is fine he can live off of that in till tomorrow but it's not going to be pleasant hopefully he can get his other chores done fast enough to afford lunch if not well he can always go into his emergency food but he would rather not mostly because that food truly is his last resort.
Well he might as well eat his bread now and get started on his chores less he anger his aunt. So Harry sits done and chows done on his meager meal only for him to to immediately get up with his plate and proceed to wash said plate. Next he starts on vacuuming the carpet in the living room only to be interrupted by his cousin, "Well good morning freak while you are in here cleaning I am going to go outside to go play with my friends not that you would know anything about that, but don't worry I did not forget about you as soon as summer break is over me and you are going to play lot's of games."
Now if someone heard a Dudley talking like that they might think freak is simply a strange nick name and that Harry and him are actually good friends but those people would only need to look at Dudley's sinister grin to retract that opinion. Honestly Dudley's "games" were nothing more than that well compared to what his aunt and uncle do that is sure Dudley might punch him but it's not like his tiny fists hurt or anything but when his aunt and uncle get involved well let's just say he does not want anything to do with it.
"Of course Dudley I am looking forward to playing with you once again." Harry states in his special bland tone so he can get back to cleaning. The sad fact is that he really does look forward to it not necessarily getting punched by Dudley but having summer break over so he can get back to school he always did like learning even if it meant more chores and beatings for him cheating to get his grades.
"Tsk I swear freak your no fun no wonder you have no friends oh no wait that is my fault isn't it?" Dudley finishes his sentence with that damned grin sure it was his fault that he had no friends but must he rub it in. Harry understood why the kids avoided him his cousin threatened to hurt anyone that came close to him this Harry could understand the kids were afraid of pain so they avoided him that much he can relate to but the adults doing the same was just not fair.
"Yes I know Dudley you made sure that I had no friends but really it does not really change anything, anyways you should go get something to eat before you go it's only healthy." Once again Harry finishes the sentence in his bland voice Dudley take offense to this but the smell and the mention of food distracts him so he wobbles his way to the table muttering under his breath all the way there.
So Harry goes back to cleaning just as he is about to finish cleaning the couch his uncle barges into the room searching for a speck out of place. "Well freak looks like you got everything handled make sure everything is spick and span my boss is coming over tomorrow and I want to do my best to impress him so you better make your self scarce tomorrow." Vernon say's his peace and leaves he is a lot easier to prepare for he only beats harry when he can pin something on him but is a bit more lax about searching compared to Petunia of course his eyes could just be failing him.
The dull work goes on and on all day long luckily enough his hands stooped hurting in the afternoon which was a little odd but nothing to complain about so he was able to complete his chores in record time, so he was permitted to have lunch which was nothing more than two slices of toast but he needed it considering the fact that no matter how well he did he was never permitted dinner.
So that is the life of one Harry James Potter I know not exciting at all not even a bit. Where is the magic and adventure that we all came here for well life is not always fare and harry would never end up learning about magic and his ancestors in till the ripe age of elven but what can one do that is just how the story goes it's not like he is going to receive some awesome power or anything.
Which sadly is the truth I don't have any grand abilities in store for him no all he will get from me is a simple shield and the power to believe now that real question is where will he take this power. In the end will it really change anything well that's why we are here looking for a tale of adventure and excitement to entertain ourselves so how about we just start this.
Blurry eyed and tired Harry wakes up to make his relatives breakfast before dawn as usually mostly because they eat so much, the other reason is so he can sneak in some food from the pantry it's not like anyone but him checks it anyways with his cousin's appetite they would think he was the one to take it.
The cooking goes a lot easier than yesterday in fact Harry did not burn him self once well at least to his knowledge there was no pain so of course he did not burn him self.
As his vision slowly starts to come back an annoying dot is staying just out of his vision he tries to rub it out of his eyes but it just stays there he ignores it for now in favor of continuing the cooking but something even more jarring than the dot comes into view directly on his right arm is a shield.
"What the heck is this thing huh?" in shock from the shield coming out of no where he drops the egg he was holding directly into the shiny gem on his shield only for it to disappear in a flash of green.
You have unlocked the Egg shield
And there you have it another story from me sorry to fans of my other story but this one was just nagging my for the longest time and I figured that a new story is set for a different writing style tell my what you think.
For those of you who don't know what Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari well it's like an rpg if you want to know more read the manga but I would honestly recommend reading the light novel wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better.
