Summary: How would Harry Potter's life and destiny change if he found out he wasn't James and Lily Potter's son, but instead he the son of Zeus and Hippolyta and twin brother to Diana/Wonder Woman.
Author's Notes:
I decided to take up my own challenge that I posted over at Whitetigerwolf's other challenges forum.
Warning! Harry's name will be Jason Henry "Harry" Potter in this story for the obvious reason that he already has a name so why change it. If you don't agree with the name change, please, don't read any further.
I plan on this story being a time jump to when Harry (Jason) gets is Hogwarts letters. I want to show how he deals with discovering he's a demigod, the powers that go along with being Zeus's and Hippolyta's son, and how that changes his interactions with the Wizarding world.
Warning! The first few chapters dealing with his first three years at Hogwarts will go by fast with minor changes. No drastic changes will occur until fourth year.
Warning! Superpowered Harry! Demigod Harry! Superhero Harry! Polyamory! Multi-Pairings! Intelligent Harry! Independent Harry! Apathetic Dursleys! Possible that more warnings are to come.
Warning! NO permanent pairings until Harry leaves Hogwarts. Eventual pairings will involve, but not be limited to Alex Danvers/Lena Luthor with the possibility of later additions. But Alex/Jason/Lena will always be the main focus of the pairings. Bisexual Alex Danvers and Lena Luthor.
I'll post a complete list of powers/abilities that Harry will have later.
The story his first set in the Wizarding world but will eventually have Harry leaving said world for the Muggle world to be a Superhero. The setting will mostly take place in the Arrowverse with some crossover with Justice League. I chose to use the category for Harry Potter and Arrow for this reason.

Prince of Themyscire
Revamped Prologue
(Opening Scene)
Aegean Sea
Samhain Eve, year unknown
A massive storm raged around the tiny fishing vessel. The vessel's owner and captain, Glaucus, fought to keep the vessel from floundering amidst the giant waves that impacted his boat. The storm seemingly appearing out of nowhere, as if by magic and awakening the immortal man and his young charge. The babe, Jason, was currently secured in a sling around the man's chest.
"It seems as if the gods or some other cursed being is against us this night, Jason," Glaucus hollered through the sound of the howling wind and cracks of thunder0. The ocean waves continuing to batter the small fishing boat.
Glaucus glanced towards his young charge only to find the babe fast asleep. It had only been a few short months since the young fellow's mother had entrusted the child's care to him. The boy, Jason, named by his mother for their mutual friend the legendary Greek hero, Jason, Captain of the Argonauts. It was his hope that someday the child would someday have the chance to know his mother and his twin sister along with being accepted by the Amazons, as the their prince.
"Blast Hera! And her damnable rules?" Glaucus thought. "The boy had every right to be raised knowing his birthright and heritage. Even if he were to have been the only boy raised on Paradise Island."
"It's no fault of his or his sisters that their father is Zeus, is a womanizer," The immortal mused. Lightening lit up the darkened sky as rain and ocean wave continued to pound the boat. Glaucus chuckled, "and what a life to be raised on an island full of women."
Glancing once again to see his young charge still asleep. "Ah, what a life, whether cursed or blessed, you've still to discover what the fates have in store for you, young Prince. Who could have imagined that Zeus would have bedded the Hippolyta."
Fear coursed through Glaucus bones as he noticed a large waveform off his ship's port bow. Glaucus muscled all his strength to keep the ship's wheel from spinning out of control.
"His thoughts hurried as the enormous wave approached. "I fear young one that we are at the end. I only pray to any gods who are listening that you be spared a miserable fate at such young an age. I ask that they take me instead of you."
Glaucus fought harder with the ship's wheel, but it was not enough the fishing vessel capsized getting lost amongst the storm-tossed sea.
(Scene Changes)
Glaucus prayer to the gods was answered when a group of dolphins gathered around the dead man had been impaled on a splintered piece of debris from his ship. Either by luck or more likely by divine intervention the jagged piece of wood had missed the sling that carried the infant. The lead dolphin worked to remove the cloth blanket that had been wrapped securely like a sling with its precious cargo from around the quickly sinking man's chest.
Another dolphin approached and peered into the blanket, the dolphin was startled to see two eyes glowing golden in the murky depths. The babe let out a happy squeal as he reached for the dolphin. The tiny babe ran his hand along the dolphin's muzzle. The dolphin noted that their young charge to find gill slits had appeared alongside the boy's neck.
With excited clicks and whistles being exchanged between the two dolphins agreeing that their change was unharmed the two dolphins were surrounded by the other members of their pod. The dolphins, entrusted forth a special task by their mistress, followed a distant call to bring their young charge to safety. The two dolphins would exchange their precious cargo between them only when it was necessary for one of them to break for the surface just long enough to refill their lungs with fresh air.
(Scene Changes)
In the early hours before dawn, the pod of dolphins swam into the shallow waters of an isolated lagoon. An ethereal beauty approach wading through the cool waters.
"Thank you, my friends," the 1st woman spoke with affection. She bent slightly in the waist deep water to retrieve the dolphin of her precious cargo. Lifting the water dogged blanket from the dolphin. The dolphins gave a few excited clicks and whistles as if to say goodbye to the infant before turning and disappearing into the waves.
The infant wriggled and gurgled with delight within the blankets. The divine beauty laughed happily as she parted the blankets to find the golden amber glowing eyes of the child looking up at her.
"It seems as if you have made some new friends, little brother." The infant let out a happy laugh settling comfortably into the arms that now cradled him close. She unwrapped the infant from the wet blanket and his soiled linen diaper. Unfastening her cloak, she carefully wrapped the dry section of cloth around the child to protect him from the cold as they journey to her cliffside villa.
"Come, little love, we must get you some food and warm clothes." The woman spoke to her young charge. She turned around heading back toward the beach and her home which set high on the cliffs above.
(Scene Changes)
The darkness of night gave way to the first rays of sunlight as it peaked over the eastern horizon. The divine beauty of the mysterious woman was revealed with the ever brightening sky. Her long blonde hair glistened with hints of red in the morning light. The woman's voluptuous curves were heavily accented by the way the cloths wrapped around her body, fastened at her waist with a girdle spun from gold threads. Her feet adorned with simple leather dandles.
The morning sky steadily changed is its colors from dark blue to purples and pinks
to ever lighter colors of orange and yellow as the sun climbed higher into the sky. the blue of the sky shown once the sun had finally clean chased the full moon back below the western horizon, as the woman entered her vast gardens at the top of the seaside cliffs. Her young brother still wrapped securely in her cloak was nestled in her arms, as she made her way through the garden full of myrtle and roses. The doves and sparrows greeted her with coos and chirps. The birds flattered about curious about the bundle in her arms.
A well-worn path to her home passed by a crystal clear lake. The swans that called the lake home were enjoying the beautiful morning by splashing about in the shallow waters near the lakes shore. Though they stopped their play and bathing when the lady passed by without stopping to greet them. They honked noisily in greeting their mistress.
The woman soon entered her home to find the hearth room to find Hestia tending to the fire. Scattered about the room were her half-siblings and her aunts.
"Greetings," the woman unsurprised by the appearance in her home.
The group's eyes drawn to the bundle held securely in the woman's arms.
"Is that him, Aphrodite?" one of the women asked making her way over to her sister.
"Yes, Artemis." the now identified goddess replied. "This is our newest brother, Jason."
"Is he unhurt by his ordeal, Aphrodite?" Artemis asks concerned for the infant's well-being.
Aphrodite unwraps the child, showing her sister that the child seems fine. He wakes from his slumber with a soft cry, beginning to wriggle about restlessly.
Jason opened his azure blue eyes to find himself the center of attention of an unfamiliar group of women. He started crying. in the unfamiliar place and the feeling of hunger on taking him.
"Shh, little love," Aphrodite cooed making her way further into the room.
"He must be hungry?" Athena voiced, moving closer.
The group collectively rolling their eyes at their sister's deduction, "Ever the wise one Athena." The group laughed good naturally.
Aphrodite sat on a couch closest to the hearth. She laid Jason gently next to her. "Thallo!" Aphrodite called to one of her attendants.
"Yes, m' lady" a young maiden, no older than twenty appeared next to the goddess.
"Please, fetch some clean linens and a bowl of warm water and soap." Aphrodite requested of the girl.
"Yes, m' lady," the maiden replied before running off to complete her assigned task. Aphrodite unwrapped the fussy infant. The group each took stock of the child making sure that the child was unharmed.
"He seems to be uninjured," Aphrodite says. "Poseidon must have already offered Jason his blessings because when the Dolphins brought him to me he had gills along his neck similar to the ones on Poseidon's Atlantean followers. The frigid waters also seem to not affect him." Aphrodite informed them.
Thallo returned having completed her tasks, she sat the basin of water on the stone hearth and the linens next to the babe.
"Thank you, Thallo," Thallo bowed in response and moved out of the way of the goddesses, but stayed close in case she was needed. Aphrodite retrieved the clean cloth, first wetting it in the water basin and lathering it with some soap.
"Glaucus was always a loyal follower of Poseidon's. Its only right that our uncle fulfills his last prayer and grant his request to help Jason." Athena said, watching as Aphrodite bathed the squirmy infant.
"Persephone?" the goddess in question looked to Athena with a raised eyebrow. "Did Glaucus…?"
"I'm afraid so, Athena. Glaucus entered Elysium. That's why I came. It surprised me because he wasn't due in the underworld yet." Persephone informed the group.
"Something about the storm wasn't natural." Hestia voiced feeling the need to give voice to what the group already suspected.
"No it wasn't, Hestia, which makes me worry about Jason's safety," Artemis said puzzled about who or what had caused the storm and what those plans were for her little brother.
While the conversations were taking place Aphrodite had finished bathing Jason and had Secured a clean linen diaper in place. He was wrapped in clean blankets. She had removed one of the straps securing the top half of her clothes to reveal her left breast. Being a goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, and procreation had its benefits. She was able to stimulate her breasts to produce milk on a whim.
Cradling the infant to her breast she prompted him to latch on, which he eagerly did, the gentle suckling stimulating the milk to flow. Aphrodite cooed happily to the child only half
paying attention to what was happening around her.
So it came as a fearful shock when she heard, "Let me put your curiosity to rest them," spoke a voice so cold that it caused a chill to run down the goddesses spines.
The goddesses formed a circle around Aphrodite and Jason. Each of them ready to defend the child from the unwelcome intruder. The intruder made themselves known in a multitude of lights and wind. The goddesses gasped when in a show of bright light and wind died down to reveal Hecate the goddesses of magic, light, witchcraft, ghosts, and necromancy.
"What do you want, Hecate?" Aphrodite spoke with venom that Jason began to cry. The infant sensing the tension in the room began to cry. "Shh-Shh…it's alright, little love," Aphrodite whispered trying to calm the upset infant.
"I promise you that I mean you and the infant no harm. Quite the opposite, actually." Hecate said moving further into the room. Her words were gently spoken, though did nothing to ease their worries.
"It was you who caused the storm!" Athena accused. "Why put Jason in danger and kill Glaucus?" You create the storm! why?" Athena glared angrily at the witch-goddess.
"It was an unfortunate necessity. Glaucus would never go back on his promise of raising Jason, and I needed him out of the way." Hecate spoke with such calculated coldness. "I assure you that Glaucus did not suffer. I made his death as quick and as painless as possible."
The goddess was not reassured by this news. They worried greatly for what the elder goddesses wanted with their brother/nephew.
"Please be at ease," Hecate tried to calm them. "I have no ill intentions for Jason. I merely wish to make him my champion." Hecate assured the group, now caught off guard by her announcement.
"Champion!? You have never had use of a champion in the past." Athena elected to speak for the group. "What plans do you have that you would even need a champion let alone using Jason?" She moved to stand in front of the group, putting herself between them and Hecate.
"I plan on giving the mortal magic users another chance to prove themselves worthy of the gift of magic," Hecate explained. "Jason is the means to doing this. As my champion, he will have the power to finally put an end to the conflict between light and dark magic users. He would be in a position to unite the mortal magic users regardless of their magical race. I will bestow with the means to gain dominion over the mortal magic users. It will be his decision on whether they keep their magic or not." The goddesses still looked hesitant knowing of the vast power that the temperamental Hecate wielded. If Jason ever did anything to displease the vengeful goddess there would be nothing that they could do to help him, but they would try even if it meant giving up their immortal life for their younger brother or nephew.
Hecate sighed at seeing their reluctance, "look I know that you have every reason to be concerned for Jason's well-being. If you wish I will swear to each of you that I will let no harm befall Jason, even by my own hand. I will see to it that Hera cannot harm him. In time he would even have the chance to reunite with his twin sister and mother. Can you say the same? You know that Hera would never allow a male child to grow up on Paradise Island, nor would she allow him on Mt. Olympus. I am offering to place him to make his own, to rule as he sees fit as a King that he was born to be. Yes, there will be trials as all heroes must go through, but he will succeed and become a hero-King of old." The goddesses shared a glance, each knowing that Hecate spoke the truth. Hera would never allow the boy to live on Themyscira or Mt. Olympus.
"Tell us more?" Aphrodite commanded after a time.
Hecate smiled, the goddesses had no real choice, they knew she was stronger than them. If she wanted to take Jason from them than she could. This way they could at least have a chance to protect the youngest member of their family.
"Good," Hecate was happy with their decision. She sat on a comfortable chair, gesturing for them to do the same.
They reluctantly get comfortable, but all sat close to Aphrodite and Jason. The babe had quieted down, snuggling closer to his half-sisters bosom, a yawn escaping the tired child, his eyes beginning to close. Aphrodite quietly encouraging him to sleep. Hecate telling them of her plans as the babe in question slept.
(Short Time Lapse)
"So you would send him to the future?" Hestia questioned the witch-goddess.
"Yes, there will be a conflict between the so-called pure-blood magic users and the new magic users which I had hoped by creating them they would open up the minds of the older magic users, quelling their guest for a fear of the power they wielded. Unfortunately, it has only divided the light and dark magic users and putting further restrictions on their gifts." The goddesses noticed that Hecate seemed to be remorseful. The witch-goddess also seemed to have optimistic, as well as, being responsible for the first time in eons. Hecate looked to be returning to her youthful self.
They also weren't happy that Hecate's plans would put Jason into the middle of a conflict that wasn't his, to begin with, but the goddess would not be able to raise him themselves not without Zeus on Hera knowing.
"If we were to agree to this plan of yours, we would want to give Jason our blessings." Aphrodite said, "…and make sure that he would have allies that he could trust."
"I promise that he will have the means and allies to accomplish his tasks. You are also welcome to add any blessings you want." The goddesses reluctantly agreed to Hecate's
plans for Jason for they really had little choice. After more discussions and further reassurances, the time soon came to say goodbye to Jason.
The goddesses stood in a circle, Jason tucked safely in Aphrodite's arms. "Goodbye, little love, we will see each other again someday, but till then I give you my blessings. May you have the love of any woman you want, but may you have the heart and soul of two that will be your perfect mates. May you know how to always love and pleasure." The other goddesses rolled their eyes knowing their sister's priorities on love and pleasure but were happy that she would bind Jason's heart and soul to women that were his perfect matches. "I, also bless you with a Divine Grace and the power to create a powerful force field whenever you are filled with love and compassion. "Aphrodite said and kissed him on the forehead bestowing her gifts.
Aphrodite passed Jason to Artemis. "I give you my blessings, of animal empathy, Animagus mimicry and your own unique animal forms to shapeshift into, I, also bless you with animals crying and enhanced senses including "Hunter's Eye': "she said before bestowing a kiss on his brow." Apollo has instructed me that he also sends his blessings," she kissed his brow again to bestow her twins gifts.
Hestia was next to grant her blessings. "My dear, nephew, sense Aphrodite has seen fit to find you two soul mates I offer you the gift of Telepathy so that you and your soul mates shall always be linked. The gift will grow in strength as your love grows. I also grant this gift to be used with your sister, Diana. May you always find each other." A kiss to the babe brow sealed the gift.
Next, to hold Jason was Athena. "My dear, Jason, I bless you with enhanced intelligence. May you use it to help aid you in your tasks," a kiss to the brow before
Athena hand Jason to Persephone.
"I give you the blessing to understand and use nature magic." A kiss to the forehead. "I, also, pass to you the blessings of my mother, Demeter," another kiss to the forehead before handing Jason back to
Aphrodite. "Hermes has also sent you his blessings, my little love," another kiss to the brow.
Aphrodite stood in the center of the circle with Jason. "The five us acting for the whole bestow upon your Zeus's armor. May it guide and protect you when you have need of it the most." A bright light surrounded Jason. The light entered his body as it bond with on a physical and spiritual level.
The blessings and ritual were done, Aphrodite reluctantly handed Jason to a now younger looking Hecate. The witch goddesses motherly persona was a much welcome appearance than the crone. "For you, Jason, I give you the gift of magic in all its forms," the mother persona of Hecate said before kissing the boys brow.
With the blessings bestowed upon the infant, Hecate informed, "Now, we must be on our way." Hecate informed them with a slight bow she disappeared in a show of multi-colored lights.
End of Chapter Notes: I wanted to better introduce this story than I did in the first prologue. I just felt like I needed to clear some things up before going forward with the story. I also want this story to focus more on Jason, so yes, Diana and the Justice League will be a part of the story, but it won't be the focus.
Next Chapter will involve a jump in time, but I don't know how much of one. I'm torn between how much to involve James and Lily in the story because ultimately they are going to meet the same fate as they do in canon. So since canon won't change to much at the beginning with the Potter's Deaths and Jason going to live with the Dursleys for a short time. I'm thinking of just doing a short retrospection. I don't we'll see what I can come up with. Luckily, my new ADD medicine seems to be working and my muse is back in action.
