Chapter one
Harry Potter was in his room waiting for the summer to end and his fourth year at Hogwarts to begin though the summer had only just began two weeks prior. What he would give not to have to come back to this house. He sighed as he re read the letter that Sirius had sent him. His thoughts turn dark as he thought about the recent dream he had about Voldemort. He couldn't understand why he couldn't be normal well as normal as a wizard his age could be. Before he could finish musing about his misgivings, he heard his uncle Vernon's thunderous, infuriating voice bellow from down stairs.
"Get the door boy!"
Harry sighed why was it that he had to get the door when your five feet from it.
He jumped off his second hand bed and went down stairs. He opened the door to see the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her straight cut bang hid her eyes. She was tall, very curvy and well endowed in her chest area. She lifted her head up to show her unusual colored eyes. Her eyes were bright lime green. He could tell that she was a witch, her magic energy rolled off her giving her a mystic feeling. But he noticed that she didn't carry a wand. He also took notice that she didn't wear normal wizard clothing but instead was wearing a simple white sun dress with purple flowers on in, and what looked to be very expensive matching heels. He was almost blinded by her hand when she brought it up to caress him face. She wore the most unusual ring, it was a dark green diamond that was intertwined by a dragon, to Harry it seemed that it radiated power and prove status.
"Hello… Harry…. I'm your father's sister…. My name is Kallisto…."
His eyes widen his father's sister? She looked nothing like him not his father, how could he believe her when he hadn't heard about her until now.
The woman chuckled at the face that the young boy was giving her. It made her wanted to cry just looking at him. How much he looked like her big brother.
"I'm going to go out on a limb and say you haven't heard of me?"
"BOY WHO IS IT!"
Vernon's bellowing voice boomed threw out the house. Harry saw the kind expression that Kallisto wore swiftly changed to one of anger and annoyance. She put her arms around harry and walked with him in to the house.
"Go get your things there are a lot that we must discuss…"
He watched as she walked into the den. He noticed that the all the doors beside his, were now closing and locking themselves
'How did she do that without a wand?'
He wondered as he went the stairs. He wasn't sure if he should trust this weird woman. He didn't even know that his father had relatives, and if that was the case why wasn't he placed in her care. Harry decided that he was going to save the rest of his questions for later. To him it didn't matter who the woman was just as long as she got him out of this hell hole.
Kallisto walked into the living room of the Durselys, with total and utter gracefulness. Vernon looked at the beautiful woman with an awed expression. It had to be his lucky day, to have such a beautiful woman grace his house hold. Vernon was already thinking of ways to make her his.
"Who is it…"
Petunia dropped the plates that were in her hands, they hit the floor with the clear sound of breaking, while both their eyes were on her Kallisto waved her hand and repair the broken dishes, she put them back on the table. Kallisto gave her a mysterious smile that told you that she was up to no good.
"It's been a while Petunia hasn't it?"
She sat down across from Vernon who looked at his wife with confusion.
"She Lily's sister -in -law."
Harry. His face turned a disgusting purple color while the veins in his neck seem to want to pop out.
"You..You mean she's a … a... Freak like that boy?"
Kallisto laughed at this. She could believe that Petunia had married such an ignorant person.
"Oh my, how improper is this how you treat all your guest."
She sat like a proper lady. She flipped her hair behind her shoulder. She was ready to get down to business. She never thought that she would see Petunia again and under these grim circumstances. In a time long past the two women were the best of friends however Petunia's jealously destroy their long term friendship.
"Because of the meddling of certain people I didn't know about Harry until recently, I've been watching him since he got off the train from Hogwarts."
She turned and glared at Petunia as if she wanted her to disappear right on the spot. She never thought she could feel hatred towards her old friend and to be honest it was more sadness and pity than anger, Petunia was always jealous of her younger sister, and was now talking it out on her son. But all that aside it was no excuse to treat a child like that. Her icy hot glare was soon projected at Vernon Dursley, and she wanted nothing more that to kill this man where he sat. She knew Petunia could do way better than this man, and she felt pity for the woman who used to be her best friend. She took a deep breath and glance in Petunia's direction.
"Why the hell would allow him to treat your sister's son like his own person slave, why would you take out your own jealously out on him."
Petunia turned bright red with anger but held her tongue she knew it wasn't wise to tempted her. In her heart of hearts she knew what she and Vernon had done to the boy was wrong but she couldn't admit that to herself, doing so would be like admitting that she was envious of the fact that he and her sister could do magic while she was a ordinary nobody married to a brute of a man.
Vernon had invented a new shade of purple, his veins seemed that they would push themselves onto the floor at any moment; he raised his portly finger at the unwanted visitor.
"HOW DARE YOU GET OUT OF MY HOUSE"
He roared at the visitor, his spit flew everywhere, Kallisto twitched, her anger had just reached the point of no return. Her glare turned to pure fury as she looked upon Vernon.
"YOU WILL BE SILENT!"
She belted out, her lime green eyes shone brighter; a wave of energy hit all the people in the room. Vernon tried to respond but couldn't. No sound came from his mouth, no matter how hard he tried. While Petunia looked at her husband horrified, Kallisto smiled at her handiwork. Kallisto had regained her composer and straighten herself out. She took at deep breath and turn to Vernon Dursley with a neutral face.
"You will be silent if you can't be civil to me understand, I could, with ease call the police and report abuse, but if you sit and listen you will never see me again nor Harry for that matter."
She waved her hand and Vernon was reward his voice back. Harry who had came down to see ruckus had witness this.
"How is it you can do magic without a wand and it be that powerful?"
He was told that true you can do wandless magic however your spells will not be at full power, he was told that doing wandless magic was extremely difficult and took years upon years to master however it seemed that his "aunt" just destroyed that theory.
She gave him a playful look as she place her finger too her lips. Something told Harry that this woman spent most of her time around his godfather.
"That is for other time but right now we are leaving here."
He noticed that Kallisto was looking him over.
"We most definitely have to one, get you some clothes that actually fit you, and two, get you a check up."
She waved her right hand, the front door flew open and numerous pieces of paper flew into the house. The papers made and neat, sturdy stack in front of Petunia, once they had reached the last paper she pulled out a pen and gave it to Petunia.
"Sign, giving me rights to Harry, once you do that the blood wards that protect him will be null, since I'm also a blood relative."
Harry was confused was he being kept out of something. What were blood wards and what did it have to do with him stand in the hell on earth. He wanted answers; hopefully his newly found aunt wasn't like Dumbledore and actually gave him a straight out answer.
"Alright, alright I'll sign we didn't want him in the first place."
Petunia snatched the pen from Kallisto. Harry saw the sad expression that Kallisto wore it was as if she had lost something important to her. Kallisto sighed softly; she hoped that one day that Harry would be able to forgive his mother's sister
A ring interrupted the long drug out silence. Kallisto reaching in to her coat pocket she pulled out a cell phone.
"It's me…. So you gave her the letter… that excellent, I'll wrap up here and met you there."
She hung up and looked to Harry was now even more confused, who is this woman? He thought to himself. She said that she was his father sister, how could he believe her, could he trust her?
"What's going on someone explain to me what's happening?"
He yelled in frustration Kallisto couldn't help but chuckle he was more like James then she could have known.
"Harry I need you to trust me okay."
He looked at her, hesitated at first, but if she was getting him out of the Durselys she couldn't be all that bad, he slowly nodded at Kallisto. She smiled at the wayward youth, and then turned her to her sister in law. She stood up and took the papers from Petunia
"Now what I'm about to tell you isn't a choice it's an order you are to sell this house, pack up your things and moved to a small house Lily left you in America, once I remove Harry ,the wards will become void and you will no longer be protected ."
She had pulled out a beige colored folder and handed to Petunia. Vernon didn't dare speak and Dudley….. Dudley was hiding in the kitchen and been so since the woman arrived, he felt something wasn't normal about her. Those thoughts were confirmed when she silenced his father.
Petunia faced looked shocked.
"This is…."
"Yes, it's the home you and lily designed when you were younger, she wanted you to have it, she really adored you Nia…"
Tears almost came to Petunia's eyes but stop them from forming she looked away from them.
Harry had turned to get his trunk but it wasn't there.
"Where's my trunk?"
"My chauffeur works very fast, and now it is time for us to depart my dear Nia maybe we will meet again."
She walked Harry to the door. He took a deep breath. This is it for real he would no longer have to live with the Durselys.
"Are you ready Harry?"
Kallisto asked him. She griped his shoulder gently. Maybe trusting her will be a good thing?
"Yes!"
And with that Harry Potter the boy who lived took his first steps towards his new future…..
MEANWHILE
(At the Granger Household)
Hermione Granger was packing her trunk. On her bed lay a letter from the Weasley twins. She wasn't going to let this opportunity pass her by. One it would get her away from Ron. It seemed that he had finally figured out that she's a girl and since then had been hounding her and looking as if she was something to eat, it utterly disgusted her too no end, and two if what she read about the Reis Mistica society was true then she might have found a way to really help Harry. She had packed everything she owned into her few trunks.
Hermione put on a plain blue tee and jeans with her most comfortable sneakers; she put her normally bushy hair into a ponytail. She put her trunks near her front door. The letter told her to be dress and pack for the rest of the summer. They had only been out of Hogwarts for a week now, But Hermione didn't have a hard time talking her parents into letting her go on a trip seeing how they were overseas themselves and wouldn't be back until it was Christmas time.
As she was waiting she thought about the Reis Mistica society, and the fact that she and been invited into its graces, which was no normal feat.
Reis Mistica was the oldest society in the wizard community. They believe in the practice of all arts whether it be, dark or light magic. They were a league of the strongest witches and wizards, so powerful that even Voldermort didn't even try to provoke their anger.
However because of their abnormal practices of magic they are scorned and often placed in league with Death eaters, thus when the wizarding world was being controlled by Voldermort they did nothing to help, the people of Reis Mistica had been commend by the magic community for there practices. So it was payback for being scorned by the world which they loved but was not loved by.
To become a part of Reis Mistica you either had to be born into it, by marriage or invited by the head of the Society herself.
Hermione couldn't wait. She wouldn't tell Harry or Ron but she really enjoyed learning some of the dark spells that were forbidden. She taught herself in secret some simple spells however she was now ready to learn some more advance spells. What however she couldn't believe is that Fred and George Weasley were part of Reis Mistica and had been since their second year. She remembered when they came to her at the end of the year.
FLASHBACK
Hermione was in the library as usual. She was sitting in the corner that was way in the back so no one would see what she was reading. She was so into her book that she didn't notice the twins sneaking up on her until they took her book from her.
"Well what do we have here…"
"I don't believe it Hermione Granger reading about dark arts."
"What should we do about this Fred?
"I have no clue George."
Hermione was beyond nervous would they tell on her would they tell Ron and worse Harry.
"Are you going to tell on me?"
The young witch asked nervously. She could never tell what the twins were thinking, and with the smirks on their faces, it was even harder to tell. The twins broke out into a full grin and handed the book back to Hermione.
"We think we are going to giving you a break Hermione and tell you something that might interest you."
The twins had handed her a letter.
"Now don't be impatient and open now wait until we notify you."
Hermione took the vanilla colored envelop, she noticed the blackish red seal and had noticed right away. The only people who could give these envelop are those who are in Reis Mistica.
"You two are….."
Both twins smiled and put their fingers to their lips.
"Now, now this is only between us."
They said as they left the library leaving behind a very shocked Hermione. That was a two weeks before the summer. Now she sat in her empty living room waiting for the twins to coming. As on que she heard a loud pop noise come from her kitchen. She walked into her rather normal size kitchen to see the Weasley twins.
"Well, that went well"
"Don't you think?"
She rolled her eyes at the boys. She walked over to them as they brushed themselves off. She pushed them out of her kitchen before they could cause anymore damage, because of the stunt they pulled half of her oven was gone and the right side of her kitchen was covered in black soot.
"So did you"
"Read the letter"
"That we gave you"
Hermione interrupted them before they could go any further. This had always got her nerves since she met the twins.
"Why do you two always speak like that?"
She asked them as they sat down in her living room. The twins looked at each other in mock confusion.
"Talk like.."
"what"
"Hermione"
The twins laughed as Hermione scowled at them. They made themselves comfortable as Hermione started to question them.
"Okay first question, this isn't a prank is it? because if it is….."
"We assure you that this is no prank, even we wouldn't joke about this."
Fred assured Hermione that this wasn't a joke. Now that the doubts were cleared out of her mind, Hermione could breathe again. The doorbell rang; it surprised Hermione because other than Fred and George she wasn't expecting any company. She got up and went to the door. She opened to see an enchanting women with usual green color eyes but it was the person next to her that confused her even more.
"Harry?"
"Hi Mione"
He answer shyly he looked as if he didn't have a clue about what was happened here. She looked back at the exotic woman that was smiling at her; there was a strange comfort that she got from her.
"Hello Miss Granger, my name is Kallisto Gineton; I believe that you got a letter from me?"
Hermione stared at Kallisto, like she was a teen idol. She couldn't believe that the leader of Reis Mistic was standing in front of her with Harry no less. Could that mean that harry is also a member of Reis Mistic. A feeling surged thru Hermione at the thought of Harry being in Reis Mistic, it wasn't a jealous feeling it was feelings of happiness. She could finally tell harry about her passion.
She had let them into the living room where the twins were. The twins greeted him with cheery hellos.
"Now that you all are here, we can get down to business,"
Kallisto started she stood in the center of the room.
"Harry Potter and Hermione Granger, you have been invited into the graces of Reis Mistic."
Hermione face lit up with joy while Harry expression mirrored confusion.
"Reis Mistic?"
"My dear Nephew, have you taken a notice to how most if not all creatures and certain wizards and witches are treated in the magical system of Britain?"
Harry simply shook his head he hadn't had many encounters prejudice with well besides Snape; Kallisto sighed softly and took the next hour taking the rose colored glasses off of Harry.
"So what does that have to do with Reis Mistic?"
Harry had never known the dark side of the wizarding world that he had come to love.
"In the wizarding world people are bias against those who uses magic differently, that's the main reason that magic is now classified light and dark. When in reality it not the magic but how it is used"
Harry paid close attention to Kallisto. He had never thought about magic like that. Harry had always been told that dark magic was evil from the start.
"Harry, my sweet nephew, knowledge is not dark or light, neither is power; it's all in how you use it."
"Reis Mistic is a haven for those who have been shunned from the wizarding society, whether a misfit witch or a newly made werewolf, if you have potential Reis Mistic will welcome you with open arms, there is no creature or magic that is taboo."
Kallisto smiled at the now bewildered boy, he would be a great wizard, once he was train properly. Her glance shifted to Hermione and her smiled widen. Kallisto had her eyes on the young girl since her first year. She was uncommonly bright; a mind like her could be a blessing or a curse to everyone around them. The Weasleys twins, like Hermione were bright but they didn't play by anybody rules but their own, Kallisto had moved the twins from their home at the Burrow to her mansion in Wales. Thinking of the Weasleys put a bad taste in her mouth and made her remember something she needed to talk to Harry about.
"On a different note, Harry, have you ever seen your parents will?"
Harry shook his head, was he supposed to have known about a will? Dumbledore had never mentioned anything about a will to him.
"I thought as much; now tell me, Harry, Hermione while eating at the burrow did either of you notice something strange about the way the food or drink tasted?"
Kallisto's pitch turned icy, full of resentment, however you would have never know it by looking at her striking features.
"I have, sometimes the food taste a bit too sweet but what does that have to do with anything?"
Hermione spoke up, not understanding the nature of the question. She turned to the Weasleys twins and noticed their grim faces.
Fred pulled out a heart-shape bottle of luminous pink liquid and sat on the table.
"This is…."
Silence fell as Hermione's face suddenly paled at the sight of the pink liquid that was place in front of her.
"Hermione what is that?"
Harry asked breaking the short lived stillness. He could tell that this wasn't good by the horrific expression on Hermione face.
"Harry that's amortentia the world most powerful love potion"
Hermione said her fist shaking; tears threaten to fall from her face. Harry being the calmer of the two asked the most important question.
"What does a love potion have to do with the Weasley?"
It was the twins turn to answer, all jokes were set aside, both twins face were somber.
"Harry, our mother has been lacing every bit of food you've ate in our house since the first time you met us with that."
Fred calmly explain to both of them, Hermione face turned red with rage, while Harry simply closed his eyes and let everything sink in.
"She has her mind set on you marrying Ginny, We wanted no part in what mother was planning, and Dad doesn't know a thing about it."
George continued explaining surprised that Harry was taking this so well. Hermione had calmed down enough to ask about the other Weasleys.
"What about Ron and Ginny?"
"When it was seen that you would put a wrench in their plans, Mother had Ron and Ginny spike your drink at the beginning of the year to make you notice Ron more."
Fred had answered them; he looked at his friends faces. Hermione looked too tired from crying to look mad and Harry's face was laced with wretchedness.
"What is it that they want!"
"They want the Potter wealth."
Kallisto suddenly said bring their attention back to her. She sighed as she ruffled her black locks.
"Your father's family was never good with money, so when your father became lord of the Potter house he left the financial investments up to your mother. Now your mother knew money and she invested several companies around the world magical and muggle, building the Potters wealth ten times its amount."
"That was when they were first married, now fast forward to now, imagine in the few short years Big sister was able to make the potters millionaires imagine what they would be now?"
"They are one of the, if not the richest wizarding family of our time."
Hermione whispered quietly her anger had subsided and she had stop crying a while ago. She was beyond hurt, these were people they trusted. In all honesty she wanted to dispute all of this like it was a bad joke, but she knew she couldn't. Besides she knew if she felt wretched then Harry felt ten times as worse.
"What about Dumbledore does he know about this?"
Harry wanted to know what Dumbledore knew about this situation. Because he had a hunch that he hoped was way off.
"That man is at the center of it all, a manipulator who will do anything to achieve his goal, he hid you from me, He is the reason that Voldermort is what is his now, he gave Molly orders to give you both, amortentia. They were plotting to use you for your wealth hoping that Voldermort would kill you and they could profit."
Harry got up from his seat and walked out the door the moments the words left her lips. The twins tried calling after him but Kallisto stopped them, Hermione moved just as fast as he did following him out the door.
He hadn't gone far, she had found him sitting on her front porch. She kneeled down to him and wrapped her arms around him.
"I'm such a fool, thinking I could trust them…"
She stroked his back, she knew what he was feeling, she was feeling it herself, these people took advantage of them like pawns on a chess board.
"They aren't to be forgiven…"
She heard him whispered; she agreed with him, there was going to be no mercy.
"I know harry.."
Harry had spun around and caught Hermione in a bone crushing hug. Shocking the poor girl for a moment before she regained her composer.
"I can always trust you right Hermione?"
She smiled and returned the hug full force, hoping that it would ease the poor boy's doubt.
"You will always be able to trust me…. Always…."
"Hermione about Kallisto offer, I'm taking her up on it , I'll use Reis Mistic to destroy Dumbledore and Voldermort in one fell swoop."
Hermione knew he would say this, she had decided that she would follow him.
"We will use them, abuse them, humiliate them, drag them thru hell and back and when they had enough we will deliver them the coup de grace, the finishing blow….
