The Wonka Phenomenon
You know that story that I said would be up by new years? Well here it is!
Summary: Harry was neglected by his parents. His brother, Robert Potter, is thought to be the Boy-who-lived. Voldemort is gone, (For good) but that doesn't change the fact that his parents favored Robert. He's forced to read Auror books by his father and has to attend work with Lily whenever her boss lets her. But Harry has dreams of chocolate and candy, and has his own plans.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Willy Wonka.
Prologue
15 year old Hadrian Luc Potter was the brother of the Boy-Who-Lived, 11 year old Robert James Potter. He was called Harry, and hated his name. It was the name of his grandfather, who always belittled him. Not that he was any different from the rest of his family.
When Harry was born he treated fairly. When Robert was born and 'killed' Lord Voldemort his parent, godparents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles all treated him as if he was inferior. As soon as he could talk he was forced to say good things about his family, and as soon as he could read he was forced to read James's old Auror books.
One thing about him was that he didn't blame Robert. He didn't think that it was his fault. He held no hate towards his brother, as he was brought up to hate him and didn't know any better.
As he grew up his affection immediately went to inventing. He tinkered with mechanics and spent as much time as he could at the local Zonkos and Honeydukes. It wasn't before long the James started getting angry that he had other interests besides Aurors. Whenever he was caught out or doing something unrelated to what he wanted him to do, he was hit.
When he was accepted into Hogwarts it was as if a whole new world opened up for him. He soaked up knowledge like a sponge, and got sorted into Ravenclaw. He made friends with Hermione Granger, and in his second year Ginny Weasley and Luna Lovegood. He didn't care for History of Magic or defense against the dark arts. He liked subjects were you enchanted things, changed them, put them in timelock, ect. As his Hogwarts years went by the quartet of friends became a tightly knit family. They all still had some secrets, but almost everything was shred between them.
As the years went by he grew more and more wary of adults in general. He didn't like rules, but didn't go out of his way to break them. He started sneaking off to Honeydukes whenever he could, and skipped the classes he deemed unnecessary. He had invented many different gadgets and candy and was creating more.
This year, though, promised to be different. This year his brother was starting Hogwarts, and would be bent on making his life hell.
