This is the first chapter hope you like it, please read and review thanks love, Moon x
Draco awoke in confusion. He could no longer hear the wand fire all around him and it seemed as though the castle was no longer at war. Actually now that he thought about it, it seemed that he was no longer at the castle himself either. Just what was going on. He was in a foreign place he'd not seen before. Had his parents sent him to an unknown foreign location without telling him for his own safety? That would be so unlike them in every manor. I mean war did make people do crazy things. It would seem however that they did not as an unknown and plain looking lady dressed all in white approached him. "Please Mr Malfoy have a seat. I know you are wondering where you are but before I tell you that, you must complete a quick survey as it is procedure and these things must be followed as I'm sure you know. I am Miriam and it is a pleasure to meet you. Good, now please answer the following questions in the order that I ask you them and note that you may take as long as you need to answer them. Question one: If you saw your eleven year old self right now and could give him any advice for his future what would you tell him?" she asked as he looked deep in thought.
"I have never actually taken the time to think thoroughly about it but it is interesting that you should ask me this. If I am honest I would tell him to grow a pair and stop being so damn trivial about little things such as money as we had buckets of money and it got us nowhere at all. I would tell him that nothing is ever as it seems at first glance. I would tell him the importance of questioning everything instead of blindly believing everything his father or someone older tells him. I would tell him also that merely because someone does not have money does not mean they do not have something else of value to offer. I would also tell him that it's all well and good to have the best of things but having friends who actually care about you truly matters more then all of that. He needs to see that not everyone has been raised as he has and that it just makes them different not wrong. The last thing I would tell him is that father is not always right and both he and I must acknowledge this and then move on from it. Next question please!" he said still thinking a lot about all he had just said.
"Okay question number two: Who do you believe is right in the current war going on? Please remember you are safe and no one will know what you answer bar me and my boss whom I must give the results of this survey to! Also I should tell you that although he gets the answers he is not permitted to share them with anyone" she said smiling.
"There is no right or wrong side I don't think. I think both sides have been so charged with energy for so long that they have lost sight of what it is they are even fighting for. Some people are fighting just to fight and not for a legit reason at all which is highly foolhardy and is the reason people randomly die. Then you have others such as my father who fight only because the likes of Tom Riddle of all people told him too. He is unaware that I know his true identity which anyone can find if you listen to him talking to himself long enough. You cannot say one thing and then do another as Lucius tried to do. It's all well and good saying a Malfoy bows to no one but if you are going to make such a proclamation you should then stick to it which he didn't do. He is a complete fraud and a liar who obviously cared very little for the Malfoy name if he was so willing to sully it at a moments notice. He is a disgrace and always will be" he answered in anger banging his fist on the table at which they were sitting.
"Question number three: If you could tell your father anything without him having the ability to in any way react at all whether physically or magically what would you say to him?" she said smiling at him kindly. It was good to release ones feelings every now and again as keeping them bottled up inside did no one any favours as he could clearly see.
"I would tell him that he is not always right and that he should really think before he speaks as he is always saying or indeed doing the wrong thing. I would tell him to look at me and what I have become because of his wrong doings. I would tell him he willing sold his son up the river to save his own hind. I would reluctantly tell him that he never should have been a parent as the responsibility didn't suit him. My mother was not any better then he was. She did try to get me help eventually when it actually struck the blonde fool that you know her son might die. Because of their shoddy actions I am now a bitter and twisted man who had no childhood to speak of and only a life of misery. I mean what kind of man freezes his own son forcing him to receive the dark mark against his will? You see everyone assumed I was evil because of my father and indeed the mark which isn't the case. No one saw that I had to be forced down in order to get it. No one was at the end of my fathers Crucio charms when he grew tired of always getting them from Riddle. No one saw their father beat their mother every time she tried to tell him being so violent with me was only going to lead me down a dark path. Almost as if I wasn't dark already. He'd made me dark so her telling him I was only going to get darker was the dumbest thing she's ever said. Who in the hell had I to vent to huh? He could go offload on his vile cronies whereas I had no one. This meant that my only outlet was Ronald Weasley, Harry Potter and his muggleborn friend. I couldn't crucio them so I verbally thrashed them at any given opportunity. You know I was actually shocked that Crabbe actually tried to kill Hermione. I severely disliked her yes but killing is something I could never do unless I had no choice like I did with Dumbledore. Dumbledore was an oaf but I didn't see why he should die or why it should me who kills him either. I know of course that it was as a punishment for my father not doing what the dark lord wanted him properly. I'd have to be pretty dumb to not know that one although some of the fools following him genuinely believed I'd never figure it out" he answered seriously.
"Question number four: What is your honest opinion of Albus Dumbledore and were you aware that he planned his own death?" she asked him as a stunned gasp left his mouth.
"No I was not aware he planned his own death and this comes as a huge surprise to me. I am now left wondering what else he didn't tell me or others he knew as I overheard Potter once saying he wished Dumbledore would only tell him everything he knew instead of always keeping him in the dark. My opinion of him is that he is not truly evil but someone who wants control and order without appearing as though he wants any of it. He wants everyone to do his bidding for him so his own hands remain clean. I'd imagine thirty percent of what he does is for the right reason and the rest of it was because of his own ideals. I feel he would want others to think they' thought of doing something on their own when it was he who planted the idea in their heads in the first place" he answered honestly.
"Now the last thing is not a question but I will need you to view a memory pertaining to the late Severus Tobias Snape and then tell me when it is finished what you think of it alright?" she asked him to which he nodded yes that he understood before sticking his head into the pensive.
Severus do not take me for an utter fool. We both know that these dark objects which keep Voldermort here on earth are horcruxes or should I say vessels for pieces of his exceptionally tarnished soul. I know already that the diary Lucius Malfoy gave to Ginerva Weasley which nearly killed her was a horcrux. It was a horcrux until Harry killed it with basilisk venom from a fang he pulled from the dead snake in the Chamber of Secrets his second year here. Voldermort must think I am an utter fool that I do not know what he is doing. You know as well as I that this is no normal curse in my arm. I got this as you know from destroying Tom Riddle's horcrux ring one of many. It will kill me and you know that!
Indeed it will Albus you have at maximum a year left to live. Now please drink this potion for it will contain the curse to hand for the time being. I'm surprised you know about his horcruxes as it is something he only told a certain few about it. He was furious that the one he gave Lucius Malfoy to guard ended up in the hands of Ginevra Weasley of all people. I'll be going now!
Severus do not ignore me. I am not an idiot. I know that the dark lord has ordered the Malfoy boy to kill me. If he should fail one should presume he will then look to you to complete the kill. Look you have said it yourself Severus I am dying and have but a year left to live. Each day I grow weaker and so it is for this reason that it must be you who kills me. Draco Malfoy has enough on his plate without needing the stress of having to kill me on top of it. So focused is he in not letting down his father that he can't even see that he almost killed two students this year. He is not a killer but a highly unfocused student who can't see the wood for the trees. I've been there Severus and I know what it's like. His parents are failing miserably with him and he has nowhere whatsoever to turn. Please Severus you must protect the innocent boys life. If you want to you could even tell Voldemort that you couldn't resist the urge to kill me so freely and got in there just before Draco could because you were being selfish. He will more the likely punish you for being greedy but as he gets what he wants in the end Draco shouldn't' suffer too much.
Indeed I would rather not have to kill you but as you will die anyway and inevitably I will later on it shall be me and not Draco who does this. I love my godson dearly but in Voldemort's circle love is not allowed so this is why I cannot show it. His father however has no love in his heart for he has never loved anything asides from the power Voldermort gave him. Draco is not aware that I took the unbreakable vow to save his life at all costs from his mother and won't accept any help I try to offer him. I can see now I will have no choice but to go behind his back in order to help him. Does Harry know these items are horcruxes? What of his scar does he know that this too is a horcrux? I mean now that you know surely you must be preparing him to destroy them. You forget I know what you would logically do next.
Severus he does not know yet for I have not told him yet. I will do so at a time of my own choosing but it will definitely happen before my demise. As for the scar in his head he is to remain unaware of it so that he may die in the proper moment. Please note however that it must be Voldermort himself who kills him so he can then be mortal in which instance anyone at all can kill him for good. Harry must die in order to save the world as it were. Surely you can see that one life in comparison with billions of witches and wizards will never compare.
So you have been raising him then like a pig for slaughter is it? You have kept the boy alive so that he may perish and die at the right moment? How callous of you! I knew you were always a bit shady but I never figured you to be so evil inside. I spy on the dark lord and watch over Harry as much as I can as I promised Lily I would. Don't forget that. He is her son Albus!
Do not tell me after all this time dear boy that you have grown to care for the boy!
Expecto Patronum!
Lily after all this time?
Always. I will always love her no matter what. You swore to protect them and you failed. I asked you to hide them and all because of Peter Pettigrew they died! I have hated James for the way he bullied and beat me my whole life at school as it was a firm reminder of my home life but I did not ever wish him dead. Peter Pettigrew let slip the location of their secret house to the dark lord and he found them killing them. And to think Peter was an actual Gryffindor no one would ever believe that one. I know he's an animagus as well. He's not very smart at anything much less hiding that from anyone. I swore to my Lily Flower that I would protect her son with my life and I hold true to my promise. I love her and I will find a way to save her son even if I must give my own life for his. At least this way she will know I did all I could to save her son. I will die with a clear conscious. Can you honestly say the same will be true of you?
He must die for the greater good. His death will end everything however I should have known you wouldn't get it. You never do get it do you Snivellus? You know she didn't even love James I made that happen all for the greater good you see. She wasn't interested in you but in that pathetic oaf Remus Lupin the werewolf. It is no coincidence he had no self confidence either. You'd be amazed what the right spell will do to a very moral man. I did that otherwise he'd have had Lily and my plans for wizard world domination would have been ruined. Did I say domination I meant fanatic support and completely blind adoration! I saved you and you are to never again question my motives! You are to kill me isn't that enough? People will never be the same after I die which is kind of the same thing because everyone and everything will crumble after me. Now get out and tell Molly Weasley while you're at it that if she doesn't poison Harry better she can kiss her monthly check from his own vaults goodbye! And don't look at me like that it is for his own benefit that she remove all of his money without his knowledge for he will be dead soon and I would rather it went to her then some swine of his own choosing. He does not need to know his money is being taken. You tell him about this and you will have signed both our death warrants and so be it all to hell in the name of morality.
Draco emerged from the memory shocked to silence. He couldn't believe all he'd seen. I mean he thought that the only problem Harry had ever had in his life was that Voldermort was after him. Now it appeared as though Dumbledore was aiding people he trusted dearly in stealing from him.
"I don't deny that he and I have never seen eye to eye but Harry has way more problems then just Voldermort so it would appear. I need to find him now and alert him to what's been going on in his vaults as whether I like him or not I would want to know if someone had, had their greasy paws all over my accounts. Having heard this it strikes me in the back of my mind that he may not have even known how many accounts he had. This is very wrong indeed. Now please inform me of where I am so I can find him and tell him this!" he said seriously.
"Please drink now this calming draft as you will need it. Okay now that that's gone I can tell you that you are in heaven but you are not alone for Harry is here also. However neither of you are okay as our detection devices which scan everyone who ascends to heaven have found various spells on you which must now be removed for everyone's safety. Up here our detection device can tell us what spells were placed on you and when they were placed. They can give us a list of all the people who have put various spells on you but cannot say who used which spell or potion on you. We have one option where we call out all the names on this list and then when you tell us the name you want we can only tell you what spells or potions this person administered to you and not anyone else. If the person you ask about had a spell on them making them cast one of the spells on you which was cast we have to tell you who cursed them. After this is done yourself and Harry will have to meet up for a serious chat with one another. Trust me when I say that after this a lot of your views and feelings will make sense to you where they didn't before. You may understand also where applicable why you may have suddenly felt something you could never explain until now" she said as she handed him a steaming vial of another potion which he consumed.
It was surprising to discover one was dead. There was an odd sense of liberation in knowing that there were no more rules for you to follow and you could be yourself for once without having to answer to anyone else. As he consumed the end of the potion he screamed loudly till his voice became hoarse. It felt as though all of his bones were being broken and then slowly re-healed. So in agony was he that he simply passed out from the pain of his extreme healing. When he awoke he found that although his sight had never been bad he could now see with twenty twenty vision. Also his skin looked a slight bit darker then it had before. The biggest change however was in his face and hair.
"I will show you a mirror now and you will see that for whatever purpose your looks were magically altered as were those of your parents. Here you go Draco!" she said as she handed him a mirror. He took it and gasped. His skin was no longer the deathly pale it had been and looked just like regular skin tone which most people had. He'd always hated that he was so pale in comparison with most of his friends. His eyes were now deep blue and his hair which was the most shocking of all was shaggy and brown in colour. There were hints of blonde through it but it was a nice caramel brown shade. He was also three inches taller in height as well reaching six ft one. You wouldn't know now if he was Draco Malfoy nor would you believe him if he said it to you. He could now see he had much more muscle then he had before.
"This is amazing I wouldn't know myself if I didn't already know myself. Can you please list all of the spells and or potions I had within my system as well as what they did?" he asked her as he still admired himself. He was startled as a door appeared to his left and an unknown man walked through. He looked to be roughly the same height if not one ft shorter then Draco. He had black shaggy hair, a deeper skin tone and deep blue eyes. He could see this man had muscles like he did as well. The man was accompanied by another lady who was smiling.
"Miriam I give you Harrison James Potter. I am Angela and I have been working with this boy. You sir are Draconis Abraxas Malfoy now Harry please have a seat and we will discuss your changes with you" she said as she conjured two more seats for herself and Harry to join the others at their table. Draco and Harry looked at one another in awe.
"Draco I don't hate you at all. I am assuming my energy consuming hatred for you came from a spell because all I know is that one moment I didn't care less about you and then suddenly I hated you with a passion. I was eleven years old and it should never have been that important. I can't tell you how exhausted I was from my hatred of you. You didn't know this but in my sixth year I had a special map I inherited which would show me the entire castle and everyone in it. It would show me where they were as they moved around and I spent ages spying on you and following you to the room of requirement at all hours of night and for what reason I don't know. It was my obsession with knowing absolutely everything you were doing. I mean you even saw me on the train hiding to try and hear something from you. What the hell was that all about? It was unhealthy and I'm sorry about it. I must ask you however why did you lie at your manor and save my life?" said the astonished Harry who looked dead different without his glasses or scar any longer.
"I accept your apology and you know what I knew I was being followed but not by who. I was terrified it was the dark lord Tom Riddle checking up on me. I know you can't have known what I was doing in there but there was a vanishing cabinet in there which matched one in Borgin and Burke's and it was my job to mend it so that the death eaters could come through it's connection to the school and attack everyone on the way. To answer your question I saved you because I had seen enough random death at that lunatics hands and I actually believed through my hatred of you that you could indeed save all of us. I am a master at occlumency as my god father Severus always taught me from a young age in secrecy which not even my parents knew about. It was for my own safety so no one even Voldermort would have known I was lying about who you were. Bellatrix did try legillimency on me without my knowledge or so she thought but I was able to conjure images in my brain of genuine confusion as to who in the hell it was which is why she never once doubted me. I am also sorry for my hatred of you as I was epic at hiding the fact that it took loads of energy to hate you. In my sixth year it showed more as I had too much on my shoulders which is why I always looked so damn sick. Why did you save me in the room of requirement during the battle though?" he asked a stunned Harry.
"This explains a lot as I knew about the two cabinets but not their significance to you. I accept your apology of course. Well the truth is I know you will have seen Snape's memories by now and so you will know all about the Horcruxes. I was going into the room of requirement as I knew there was one in there and how to destroy it. It was Crabbe setting off his fiend fire which actually killed it. When he released the fire I just knew I couldn't let you and Blaise die. I was surprised by the others as Hermione I know was so focused on the task at hand that she wasn't even thinking of anything other then getting to safety. Ron however horrified me as he asked me to leave you there to rot and die after all you'd done to me my whole life. I don't even know if he realized that by asking me to do that he was in fact in fact asking me to kill you. It was weird but although I knew I hated you I also knew I couldn't let you die. I knew that somewhere out there amidst the mess that was the war you had parents living who wouldn't have coped had you died. Ron even threatened to kill me if I made him go back for you however I took you and he took Blaise so he couldn't do anything afterwards I made sure of that. I have never felt such revulsion towards someone who was meant to be my friend in all of my life. It was like his compassion had all but evaporated from his body" he said as he sighed heavily sadness evident on his face.
"I know from looking at Snape's memories all that Dumbledore has kept from me and indeed all that Mrs Weasley has done. I am devastated as I loved her like a mother because my aunt treated me so terribly. I was treated so badly at home that being welcomed into her house no questions asked was a blessing and an honour for me. I always felt so safe and loved there when in reality all she wanted was my money. I was always so scared of dying that I left my money to Professor McGonagall and Hermione to split between them. They won't have known about that as I made it so they wouldn't. With everything that happened to Ron with the locket horcrux and him abandoning us on on the run I just didn't feel I could trust him anymore. His actions in the room of requirement unfortunately proved me correct. I am most hurt about the money though as I am a generous man and would have given her some money no questions asked if only she'd asked me. It hurts that she neither wanted to nor felt she could" said Harry as he turned to face the two ladies once again.
"Ok so Angela will now tell Harry here what spells and potions he had on him and in his system and then I will tell Draco the same things okay. So Angela take it away!" said Miriam laughing as Angela joined her chuckling.
"Ok so Harry our detection devices tell us you had various glamour charms on you to alter your appearance, vision, height, hair length etc. You had personality enhancers on you which basically alter the way in which you would respond to certain things so you would only respond the way that the caster of the spells would wish you to. You had various spells making you distrust and hate severely certain people however this doesn't actually make sense as you never even really saw some of the people it was designed to make you hate. You had potions to make you love passionately one person Ginerva Molly Weasley and potions to make you believe anything anyone in the Weasley family said to you. We can only tell you at this stage that the twins did not supply you with this nor did they know of it's existence. We can only tell you this as our detection device told us to tell you. There were various tracking charms on your clothing, glasses and various items belonging to you which also includes property with which you were associated. Lastly you had a large core blockage on your system meaning that your magical core always functioned at fifty percent of what it should have always been. This does explain why you struggled at some of the more simple spells often" said Angela flooring Harry.
"This is a lot to take in. Please tell me the people who cast spells and that on me and then I will tell you who I want to know about specifically!" he demanded looking very angry, hurt and imposing.
"Ok we have Lucius Malfoy, Albus Dumbledore, Tom Riddle, Molly Weasley, Ronald Weasley, Ginerva Weasley and lastly Lillian Potter and James Potter" she answered him honestly.
"There are a lot of interesting people there but I would most like to know about what Albus Dumbledore did to me!" he said as he looked shocked.
"Well I can tell you that he expanded extremely upon some glamour charms which had already been on you from your parents. These ones were light ones to make you a little less recognizable by anyone should anyone who shouldn't see you actually see you. Dumbledore made you look identical to your father but with the eyes of your mother so you would be easily found by anyone should they come looking for you. He made you need to wear glasses when he got you as a baby. Using spells on your relatives he saw to it that they always made sure you had the right glasses prescription. He knew how they were treating you as he used monitoring devices to keep you there. As well as keeping you there these devices were to tell him how you were being treated in their care. Top that with his secret informant Mrs Arabella Figg and there is no way he didn't know how you were being treated there. She often reported to him how badly you were being treated but she believed him when he said he was dealing with it. He had wards on all of the places you stayed to keep out magical folk of all kinds and all mail. He was also tracking your every move via spells on your clothing, trunk and glasses etc. He also instructed others to place the rest of the spells on your person. I can tell you now that he didn't ask Lucius to put the spell he placed on you there but once he knew about it he didn't exactly remove it either. He also blocked your core and magically manipulated Poppy Pomfrey's mind so she would never fully heal you!" she answered him honestly.
"Can you tell me anything else about the other spells which were cast? I mean I know you can't tell me who cast them but I'd still like to know about the spells themselves and what they were supposed to do!" he asked her calmly.
"Well what we can tell you is that the spell Tom Riddle used didn't work. He was exceptional at hiding it's presence as Dumbledore did not find it when he went looking to enhance any spells already on your person. The spell was meant to last a lifetime but only lasted a week and Tom Riddle didn't think you were very interesting as a consequence of that. It never once occurred to him that his spell had stopped working. Eventually with everything going on all around him he forgot he'd even placed it there. As for the spell Molly Weasley used it was pointless as you already felt that way. She didn't need to use that spell. All we can say about Ron's spell is that it interfered with a much stronger spell in your system which cancelled the intensity of his spell out. His spell was designed to make you do something unusual which you never even did nor would you have ever wanted to do. We don't know what he was trying to achieve using such a random spell as we thought initially it had been an error but no he really put thought into learning this spell to use on you. Hermione Granger taught him the spell but wouldn't have known what he was using it for as it was such a strange spell" she answered him honestly before turning and signaling to Miriam to begin.
"Ok so that was interesting indeed. As I deal only with you Draconis I'll begin now. You had spells inhibiting and seriously altering your appearance and growth rate. You had spells of loyalty and devotion to certain individuals on you which they themselves applied. You had tracking charms on your wand and clothes as well as your Malfoy family ring. You had thought altering potions and feeling potions supplied to you. You had potions of lust, mistrust and hatred supplied to you. The people who did this were Molly Weasley, Lucius Malfoy, Albus Dumbledore, Tom Riddle, Pansy Parkinson and lastly Blaise Zabini" she said as he processed all of it.
"Ok you know what forget everyone else I want to know what my father did to his own son! Also after that I need you to explain the other spells especially Blaise as he was meant to be my best friend and I can't believe he'd use a spell on me!" he said angry and shocked.
"Well first to Blaise. He wasn't actually aware he used a spell on you as he was aiming for himself but he missed getting you and now he just thinks that the spell he used does not work. The detection device says we can tell you what he did so we will. Someone mocked Blaise about his legs and he was trying to reshape them magically but instead he managed to make your hands a bit larger. It has already been fixed and only registered here as he didn't know he'd done it and so it was never removed. Now that that's over let's move on to your father shall we. He used the glamour charms on you and himself as he felt he needed to have a better looking family as a better looking family would look better to Tom Riddle. However Tom Riddle was not interested in looks just mindless people to serve him. It was Lucius who blocked your magical core but he didn't do it because he wanted to. He was made to do it magically by someone else. As he was made to do it to you and you have asked about him I have no choice but to tell you that Albus Dumbledore made him do it as he was scared you'd be stronger then him. Needlessly of course. Lucius used various spells making you loyal to the dark lord and indeed himself as well as punishment spells which would make you experience pain in your stomach if you thought of something which he didn't think was appropriate. I need yourself and Harry here to come with me to this pensive to view another memory pertaining to Draco here!" she said as she brought over a new pensive with another memory inside. They both looked into the pensive neither one sure what they were going to see.
Lucius please see reason here. I am giving you a way out! You know that when your mother died I was all over the place. I am a bad parent and I say that openly. I knew not how to raise a boy and so I lead you stupidly to the dark lord which I know was awful. If I could take back all I've done to you dear boy I would. I am saying to you now that this does not have to be Draconis' fate also. I can take him away with me up the country where he can live a happy life without the evil influence of the dark lord. The dark lord fooled me too with his speeches of great power and so on. He's not even pureblood but half blood. It broke my heart to learn that so late in life as I'd believed in him for so long and it was all a farce I tell you/ Draconis deserves to have a normal childhood like most children his age. What kind of childhood will he have when his father is nearly always gone and he worries if today will be the day his father dies? He is five years old please let me save him. I know I couldn't save you but I can at least help Draco while there is still life in me yet!
You should have died instead of mother. You screwed up badly dad and I shall never forgive you. I am Draco's father and he will respect whatever lord I tell him to just like you did with me. It's no good admitting you were wrong thirty years later. Where in the hell were you when Dotty was left looking after your son huh? Who comforted your son when he cried himself to sleep each night because he worried his own father might die! A Malfoy bows to no one and I will not have Draco cower with you! The fact you so boldly lie about the dark lords blood status amazes me because if I were to tell him you said that you'd be dead. So I'd watch what I say around here dad.
Lucius this is exactly what I don't want him doing. I know I'm wrong but I don't want you to be wrong also. You cannot stand there and say a Malfoy bows to no one when you obviously don't believe it bowing to the dark lord every chance you get. I have tried many times to try and help you but you will not see reason. Draco is only five and could have a safe life above all else but you will not hear of it. You have failed just like me and clearly this cycle of failing parents will never cease. You know he'll have his own kids and treat them like this also! It will be your fault for not accepting your mistakes and accepting my help! What says Narcissa on this matter? He has a mother unlike you did so surely she should say what she thinks.
Narcissa thinks what I tell her to as she's knows what side her bread is buttered on. She is lucky I even married her. I only did that because you said I'd be shameful in society without a wife. I didn't even want one or a son for that matter but as per usual you intervened and now I've got both so no father I think I'll do what I want with my own damn family. YOU HAVE RUINED MY LIFE AND HAVE THEREFORE CONDEMNED THAT IDIOT I LIKE TO CALL A SON TO WHATEVER I DISH OUT!
But I mean he wouldn't even have to be with me if you didn't want that. I mean he could live with my sister Adeline. She would be well able to look after him and to save him from the evil clutches of the dark lord. What happens when he gets older and tells you he doesn't want a dark mark or to serve him huh? Are you going to beat him to submission?
If that is what it takes then yes. We are through with this conversation dad. I will not tell you again. If Draco is anything like me he'll come quietly like a good little bastard I mean boy. In fact actually why don't you take Narcissa away then she can be free of this evil as you call it and I and my son alone can rein supreme in this house! Get out of here and don't come back here until you can see that his word is law and we will all follow it as this is what must happen. I must go now as he summons me. Mipsy! See that Draco is looked after until I return. He will not be needing his mother at this time. Tell Narcissa to wear one of those French lace gowns I like and tell her to wait for my return as she'll be getting some tonight that's one sure thing!
They both emerged from the pensive looking shocked. "I am so sorry you had to see that Draco I can only imagine how hard it must be!" said Harry placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. "Thanks Harry. Excuse me Angela but what's in this pensive here?" he asked gesturing to the one beside it. "In there is the next memory you must view together and this one pertains as you've guessed to Harry!" she said as they entered another memory.
This is not right Tuney! This letter here says that stupid oaf and that sister of yours got blown up by this crazed lunatic called Tom Riddle or Voldemort. I swore when I married you we'd put an end to this so called magic nonsense. Now this here is signed by Albus Dumbledore the crack pot old fool whoever he is and it says we need to take in Harry as he has nowhere else to go. Your sister was nothing if not meticulous. Where in the hell is that man Silly Black or whatever who was meant to take him if they died? I will not stand for this outrage! He will ruin Dudley's life with all of these magical tricks! I know we'll beat the magic out of him. If he doesn't grow up using it he won't ever be able to use it. These things are all about practice and as he won't be getting any he'll be fine. But I tell you this he can sleep under the stairs in that cupboard there for scum like him will not ever rest in one of my bedrooms!
You are right Vernon of course! I don't know where Silly Black is but I would assume he too is dead otherwise he'd be here now claiming this thing. I can see we have no choice but to keep him that does not however mean we have to keep him nicely. He shall live under the stairs, do all our chores for us and have two small meals a day if we decide he even deserves food that day. I don't want him to get sick so we'll be changing his nappies all the time but he can still live in there and we won't be seeing him until he needs feeding or to do some chores. I tell you this that by the time that child is five years old he'll be so proficient in caring for all our personal needs that he'll be like an adult. That stupid bitch Lily and her freak husband got themselves blown up and now this cretin will suffer for their arrogance. Oh shut up you stupid brat! Vernon clear out the cupboard now! He's going in there soon as! {smack!} now shut up FREAK! I think one nappy a day will suffice for the moment.
Indeed you are correct. Cheap nappies for him. Oh what's this I didn't see this before. It says that this pouch contains ten thousand pounds for his upkeep. You know what put him in there I'm going out. I'm going to buy a mini fridge! I am booking all three of us a two month holiday in Peru or some such place. The mini fridge will have milk and food in it which he can get himself. We'll just leave him here. I'll buy a potty also as that will work. He can train himself the magician he is any way it should be no problem for him!
They watched as the fridge was filled to bursting and a potty was thrown into the cupboard where he was left screaming crying with a red searing hand print on his face where Petunia had slapped him as they went away on holiday. Harry had never been more happy he didn't remember something in his life. "Harry I am so sorry I have seen this. Severus always said you lived a very entitled life here and now I see that's not true. I think he just hated your dad and placed that hatred onto you as well. That wasn't at all fair and I can see from here that you didn't live in a mansion either. Snape really should have checked his facts before he spoke a bit like my father!" said Draco seriously.
"Thanks Draco! Now then you said our cores were blocked I am just wondering if there is anyway to tell if we had any abilities we didn't know of?" asked Harry.
"Yes indeed you did. You Harry had the natural abilities of self healing, occlumency and wandless magic all of which were blocked in one go with the person who blocked them Albus Dumbledore not knowing what they were as he just blocked them all at once without checking what they were. Draco you had the same abilities except you had legillimency and he also blocked off yours without knowing what they were. Now then we must move on and so too must you. As you can see there is no one here to greet you even though Dumbledore did try to manipulate his way here to you but was unsuccessful. There is no one here as you were not meant to die. You have three choices. Choice one you go back to where you came from and we keep all horcruxes here making Voldermort mortal while retaining all of your new looks and memories. Choice two is everything above except you go back to your parents time at Hogwarts School. Choice three is the same except you'd be going back to your first year. We will also be giving you a parting gift you get to keep!" said Miriam happily as both boys thought about it.
"I never did see my parents so going back to their time would be cool. I need to know if we can stop Peter Pettigrew. I am sure they will die some other way any way but I'd like to be able to expose him if I can!" Harry asked seriously.
"Yes you can expose him but not stop him. What we mean is you can make him look bad in front of his friends and whether they choose to accept it or not is down to them and them alone!" she answered wisely. Angela asked Draco his own opinion and he agreed that going back to his parents time would be wonderful.
"Ok so here we are you will both be returning to your parents sixth year. You will be returning as twin brothers though. So Draco we will be changing your name legally to Lord Draconis James Halliwell. You will gain the power of occlumency and we are making it so that you will always retain your magical core and natural powers no matter what should happen. Harry your name has been legally changed to Lord Harrison Abraxas Halliwell and you too will achieve the ability of Legillimency. We needed to make your names slightly similar but very different also to what they were hence having each others middle names. The story will be this. Your mother died due to complications in childbirth and your father had to raise you on his own and because of this chose to have you home schooled."
"When you arrive you will find a 'will' with his instructions that he is leaving his family manor and his millions which will essentially be all of your funds amalgamated into one account of which you will both have access to. You will both have access to a personal account each which will refill from the main family account each year. The main family account is the only account you will have joint access to as per his instructions. He will have strict instructions that you are to attend Hogwarts School upon his death if you have not completed your studies as he is certain it is the safest place you could go. You will need to be resorted and will both go to Gryffindor as this is best right now. Also you should note you will be expected by all and no one will ever question your presence. The horcruxes will forever remain up here where they belong so should he make more they will be automatically destroyed as soon as he leaves them wherever he does. Please enter this room here to our left, count to five and re emerge. We are your guardian angels and will always be with you. We will sometimes visit you to give you advice and help but only you will see us. If we don't come and see you, you will get a letter or something from us containing information which will help you out in some way. Good luck!" they said in unison as both boys entered the room counted to five and exited again.
