"Are you sure you want to do this Harry?" The soft voice of Janice Potter, Harry Potter's current companion made the raven-haired male smile sadly at the woman as she sat outside of the circle that Harry was sitting in. Though the only thing really separating them was the thick white line that Harry drew.
"I am." Harry smiled at the girl. "I don't want to leave you but I want to change the past."
"You won't be able to change everything Harry." The woman warned him. "Unlike most travels to the past that people did using this ritual you are not going back into your body but you are going to create a new... dimension of sorts where you will either be James Potter's older brother or his younger one."
"I know." Harry said with a soft sigh as he looked up at the sky. "But I don't want my younger self to grow up abused and neglected. I want to give him the childhood I never had."
"...I'll miss you dad." Janice whispered, looking down at her lap, her lips pulled into a frown.
"And I'll miss you too kiddo and I will always remember you but I must do this." Harry whispered as he tilted the woman's chin up, smiling softly at her. "Please don't look at me with such sad eyes. I want to see your smile for the last time before I leave."
Janice had only been three years old when Harry rescued the girl from her abusive parents who didn't like her being freak and un-natural for having magical powers. It made Harry livid every time he remembered seeing the girl being beaten by her own father, he never regretted saving the girl and he doubted that he ever would.
"Promise me that you will never forget me. No matter what." The twenty-two year old demanded, looking at Harry with blazing blue eyes.
"I promise." Harry reassured her. "And you promise me that no matter what happens, you will continue your travels in looking for magical children and send them to Salem."
"I promise." Janice smiled softly before leaning over quickly and hugging Harry tightly. "Take care dad."
"You two Janice." Harry smiled, hugging her back before letting her go and standing up, stretching his back and smiling at the woman. "Say the incantation." He urged her as he stood in the center of the circle, a soft smile on his lips as he listened to the softly spoken Latin words being spoken by the girl. It took no more then just a few minutes before the circle lit up and with a final smile at Janice he disappeared with a soft flash.
"Kaleb! Come meet your younger brother!" The voice of his mother, Dorea Black, startled the three year old Kaleb Potter before the child quickly ran across the room and up to his mother who was cradling a young babe in his arms.
"Younger brother?" Kaleb asked, his head tilted to the side as he scurried onto the couch, peering down at the raven-haired child in the woman's arms.
"Kaleb, meet James." Dorea beamed as she held her youngest close while her eldest peered down at the child.
"Kaleb!" James Potter squealed in happiness as his older brother tickled him mercilessly.
"What did I tell you about going into my room kiddo?" Nine year old Kaleb Potter questioned the six year old as he continued to tickle the child with a small smirk upon his lips.
"Not...to." James said between giggles, squirming on the bed as his brother continued his tickle assault.
Neither boy noticed the two adult figures looking in on the two with fond smiles.
"No!" James held tightly onto his brother as he eyed the letter that Kaleb held in his hand. "I don't want you to go!"
"James, I have to go." Kaleb said soothingly as he carded his fingers through James' hair.
"No! You'll leave me and forget me!" The eight year old stamped his foot, his lower lip trembling and his eyes filling up with tears.
"I won't." Kaleb smiled softly, pressing a kiss to James' forehead.
"You promise?" James questioned softly.
"I promise."
Dorea and Charles watched on with soft smiles.
"Potter, Kaleb!" Professor McGonagall called and the eleven year old walked out of the throng of people and climbed up onto the dais where a stool sat.
Jumping up onto the stool, the hat was placed on his head and a soft voice spoke.
"My, my, you are certainly a bright young man, you are also very loyal, cunning and brave. Now where to put you?"
"Ravenclaw?" Kaleb suggested quietly.
"Yes, I think so too." The hat chuckled softly. "You are certainly no Hufflepuff, while you certainly loyal you wouldn't flourish in that house. Gryffindor is certainly no place for you and Slytherin would quite possibly make you feel isolated. You would do best in RAVENCLAW!" The last part was shouted into the Hall and Kaleb waited for the hat to be taken off of his head before he jumped off the stool and strolled towards the blue and bronze table with a wide smile.
"Kaleb!"
His name being called was the only warning he got before he was run over by a raven-haired missile, making him chuckle softly.
"James, what did we tell you about running?" Dorea Potter chided her younger son as she pried James off of Kaleb before sweeping him into her arms and giving him a tight hug.
"Welcome back son, now why don't we head home and you can tell us all about your first year at Hogwarts."
Kaleb watched with a soft smile as his brother nervously jumped from foot to foot at the front of the hall before jumping and running forwards when his name was called.
"Potter, James!"
Kaleb chuckled softly at the nervousness his brother displayed.
"Gryffindor!" When the hat called out James' house Kaleb grinned and turned towards his friend, Andromeda Black and smirked.
"Pay up Andy, told you he was going to be a Gryff." He wiggled his fingers while waving his hand at his brother who beamed at him when he didn't show any anger or hostility at the younger boy in being sorted into Gryffindor.
"James Potter!" Kaleb snarled as he stormed up to his brother, his eyes narrowed in anger as he glared at his brother. "What are you doing?!"
"Get lost Kaleb!" Thirteen year old James Potter shouted. "This doesn't involve you!"
"Watch your tongue young man!" Kaleb's nostril's flared as he stared down at his brother. "I am not above putting you over my knee and spanking you silly! Now what is going?"
"They ambushed us!" A third year Slytherin, whom Kaleb was quite sure was Severus Snape pointed at the four Gryffindors as he stood in front of the younger brother of Sirius Black, Regulus, clearly protecting him against the third years.
"Is that so?" Kaleb's eyes turned to the four Marauders, three of them glaring at the Slytherins while Remus Lupin, the fourth of the Marauders just stared down at the ground with pinched lips.
"We did not!" Sirius snarled out. "You're the ones who attacked us! Dirty Slytherins! Lying all the time!"
"Mr Lupin, would you care to tell me what really happened?" Kaleb questioned, his brow arched as he tapped the prefects badge on his robes. "Otherwise I'm afraid all six of you will have to get detention for the next week with Professor McGonagall."
"Sirius and James attacked them, Kaleb." Remus whispered, not meeting either of the boys eyes.
"Remus!" Sirius hissed while James stared defiantly at his brother.
"And why did you do that?" Kaleb's question was aimed at James.
"They're Slytherins! I bet they were planning something nasty!" James spat at the ground. "They're dirty Death Eaters!"
"Mr Snape, Mr Black, please go back to your common room." Kaleb waved the two Slytherin's away before turning furious eyes onto his younger brother and his friends. "You utter idiot! You do not go around cursing people just because of what their house affiliation is!"
"But... They're Slytherins!" James whined.
"Would you have cursed me if I ended up in Slytherin?!" Kaleb hissed out darkly, his eyes narrowed and practically daring James to say something nasty.
"..." James swallowed and looked away, fidgeting in his place. He couldn't answer that because he knew that if he said no, it would be a lie.
"I see." Kaleb's cold voice made James stiffen and look up at his older brother, his eyes widening in shock and fear at the suddenly cold demeanor that his brother was wearing. "I think that it will be twenty points off for both you and Sirius for cursing a fellow student and ten points to Mr Lupin for telling the truth. And I also think that a two week detention with Professor McGonagall would be nice as well. And a letter home to mother I think is needed. Let's see what she and father will say."
Kaleb spun on his heel and stalked away from the group of Gryffindors, ignoring the pleading calls of his brother for him to come back.
"Mother, Father." Kaleb nodded his head at his parents as he met them at the platform, not looking at his younger brother even once as he walked over with Sirius.
"Kaleb," Dorea smiled sadly at the boy. "How is school? You ready to take your NEWTs next year?"
"I am. Can we go home please?" Kaleb questioned. "I want to pack some things before leaving with Andy for that trip to France with Narcissa, Bellatrix and their parents."
"Of course." Dorea shared a look with her husband as she took her older son's arm and apparated them away from the platform.
"Kaleb, your father and I would like to talk to you." Dorea said softly as she and Charles stepped into Kalebs rooms.
"Of course mom." Kaleb placed his book down and turned to face his parents, letting out a soft sigh when he saw their faces. "Is this about James?"
"Yes." Charles nodded his head as he sat on the bed along with Dorea. "We know that he hurt you Kaleb."
"He didn't really hurt me dad." Kaleb shook his head, holding his hand to stall any protests from his parents. "I had a feeling that he would end up hating Slytherin the moment he was sorted into Gryffindor. I had hoped that my lessons at least taught him something on not being prejudiced to people but I guess I was wrong. He is friends with Sirius after all."
"But he upset you didn't he?" Dorea asked softly. "When he stayed quiet after you asked him that question."
"He did." Kaleb pursed his lips before letting out a sigh. "I admit at that time I was more then just upset. I was angry, I was hurt and more then that I was heart-broken that my own brother could be like that. As I said, I hoped that he learnt from my lessons on not being prejudiced..."
"We... talked with him." Charles sighed. "We grounded him for two weeks, lowered his allowance and took away his personal vault key for the duration of the summer."
"Him being grounded won't really do much dad, you know that." Kaleb said. "It's who James is. I'm not going to complain or rage because my brother is narrow minded about the world. Can I go back to my studies?"
"Of course." Dorea stood and hesitated for a second before leaning down to press a kiss to Kaleb's forehead. "You're a good brother, don't forget that."
"Kaleb?" The soft voice of his younger made Kaleb groan into his pillow before he sat up and stared blankly at James who was fidgeting in his place in the doorway to Kaleb's room.
"What do you want James?" Kaleb drawled out, eyeing the fourteen year old with a slight sigh. He could see that James was feeling bad.
"...I'm... sorry."
"About?" Kaleb sighed, his eyes narrowed.
"Everything." James muttered, staring down at the carpet. "Not answering your question. Hexing Slytherins."
"Come here you brat." Kaleb fell back onto the bed, holding the covers up and snorting when James practically ran up to the bed and slid under said covers, cuddling up to his brother despite the fact that he was fourteen.
"You aren't angry?" James questioned.
"I'm not but I am overly upset at you." Kaleb said as he wrapped an arm around James' waist and held his brother close. "I taught you better then that. And while I admire your loyalty to Sirius, I do not like it one bit that you go about hexing and cursing students."
"'m sorry." James mumbled, his eyes slipping close.
"Just sleep." Kaleb sighed, rolling his eyes before snorting quietly when James quickly fell into deep sleep. "You are an annoyance Jamie." He whispered into the hair of his brother. "But I love you none the less."
"...There are many more things I would like to say." Kaleb Potter, seventh year Ravenclaw and finally a graduate of Hogwarts, said as he stood on the podium being the speaker for the whole group of seventh years. "But unfortunately time is not on my side. However the one thing I would like to finally say is thank you to everyone who taught us, seventh years, for the duration of our Hogwarts education. Without all of you none of us would be standing here with our diploma's in hand and about to head out into the real world. We would also like to thank all of our parents for putting up with us when we were throwing tantrum about a certain teacher or student, when we clung onto you as we were about to board the Hogwarts express for the first time or when we became hormonal teenagers with tempers worse then those of red-heads. Thank you all."
He bowed his head amidst the thunderous claps and stepped down from the podium to sit at his chair, a bitter-sweet smile on his lips. Seven year of Hogwarts and it seemed as if only yesterday he was boarding the Hogwarts Express for the first time while trying to pry his brother's fingers off of his robes.
It certainly moved quickly but Kaleb would not change it for the world.
Twenty one year old Kaleb smiled and chuckled as he watched his brother receive his diploma for graduating from Hogwarts. While his brother didn't grow out from his prejudice of the Slytherin's and Dark Wizard's he certainly made a fine young man.
He watched with a fond smile as James received a kiss on the cheek from Lily Evan's, his brother's girlfriend of one year now. He was quite sure the two would be marrying soon.
"Do you, James Potter, take this woman, Lily Evans, to be your lawfully wedded wife?" Albus Dumbledore, who was officiating the wedding of James and Lily, spoke softly.
"I do." James smiled.
"Do you, Lily Evans, take this man, James Potter, to be your lawfully wedded husband?" This time the question was aimed at Lily who beamed and said.
"I do."
Kaleb smiled as he continued watching the ceremony. While he was understandably upset and hurt at not being his brother's best man he understood that James had more in common with Sirius then he had with him. It did sting the first time he was told by James that he asked Sirius to be his best man but he just bore it and smiled at his brother.
When his mother asked him how he felt he told her the truth. Upset and hurt but understanding. While his relationship with his brother was still strong they rarely saw each other unlike Sirius, who was always around James as the two were both in Auror training.
"Kaleb!" James smiled at his older brother as the twenty-three year old man flooed into the small house he and Lily bought for themselves after their marriage.
"I heard that Lily is pregnant." Kaleb said with an amused smile as he walked by his brother and walked towards his sister in law, leaning down to press a kiss to her cheek before placing his hand onto the slightly rounded belly of the red-headed woman.
"Just two months gone." Lily smiled at Kaleb. The two had always gotten along, even at Hogwarts.
"How are mother and father?" James questioned.
"They... don't have long." Kaleb said with a tired sigh. "The Healers are giving them a year at most, maybe less."
"I knew that their health was declining but... Now I feel bad." James sighed.
"Mom and dad understand James." Kaleb soothed his brother. "You are busy with your Auror work and the Order. They at least get to see Lily whenever she goes over."
"I just wish I could take time off to visit them and spend some time."
"Mom said as long as you pop in once a month for a few hours to chat they don't mind." Kaleb patted his brothers' shoulder. "Now why don't we stop talking about our parents dying soon and talk about something else?"
"Alright..." James wasn't exactly pleased but he knew that Kaleb was right.
"So, is this my nephew?" Kaleb said softly as he peered down at the babe enclosed in blue blankets. "He looks just like you when mother brought you home from the hospital."
"...He does?" James blinked, gaping at his brother.
"Mmm, he does." Kaleb nodded his head. "Though understandably he has much prettier eyes then you."
James spluttered, Kaleb grinned and Lily laughed while young Harry James Potter slept on.
"You want me to change the secret keeper from Sirius to Peter?" Kaleb questioned with disbelief written over his face. "Why?"
"I'm too much of an obvious choice." Sirius pointed out. "And while I won't betray James, Lily and Harry I don't want to risk it."
"We want to use Peter as the secret keeper." James said. "Please Kaleb? Can you do it?"
"Shouldn't you be asking Dumbledore?" Kaleb asked even as he brandished his wand and with a slight influx of magic concentrated said magic in his eyes to look for the purple magic line linking James and Sirius together.
"He doesn't need to know." James shook his head.
Kaleb just snorted before latching his magic onto the magic line and then slowly tugging it to pull it away from Sirius magic before moving it to latch onto Peter Pettigrews.
"There, now Peter holds the secret though I've left a slight imprint of the charm in Sirius' magic to make Dumbledore believe that Sirius still holds the secret."
"Thank you." James smiled softly.
"You're welcome James."
"James," Kaleb stepped out of the floo with a grim expression on his face.
"What is it?" James quickly jumped up and walked quickly towards Kaleb.
"Mom and dad... They died just an hour ago." Kaleb murmured softly as he sat down in one of the arm chairs. "The healers said they died peacefully in their sleep with smiles."
"Did... you see them?" James asked softly as he collapsed on the arm chair beside Kaleb. Thankfully Lily was upstairs with Harry, lulling the child to sleep.
"I did." Kaleb nodded his head. "Do you want me to bury them or burn them and scatter their ashes?"
"Burn them." James said immediately. "And scatter the ashes over the Atlantic. I know they'll be happy with that."
"Okay." Kaleb nodded his head as he stood up, grabbed his brother's arm and pulled him up before pulling him into his arms. "Tell Lily and Harry I said hello."
'Mr Kaleb Potter,
We regret to inform you that your brother, James Potter, and your sister-in-law, Lily Potter, have been murdered on the thirty-first of October.
As it stands, their will has now been put into effect and the reading of it will take place on the second of November at 9:00am.
Please arrive at Grinogotts at least fifteen minutes before.
With condolences,
Silvertooth,
Wills and Inheritences'
Kaleb stared at the letter in his hands, dumb from the shock before he promptly collapsed on the bed behind him, his eyes moving to stare at the photo of him, James and Lily on the couples wedding day.
"James... Lily."
He choked before falling back on the bed and closing his eyes, letting the sweet call of Morpheus envelop him. He didn't want to think of his brother and sister dead, nor did he dare think of what happened to poor Harry.
The six and a half thousand year old Vampire shot up from the bed with a gasp as the memories of Kaleb Potter assaulted his mind. It took him a good hour to sort through all the memories before he had a good grasp on everything. He shoved the memories of him as Harry Potter, six and a half thousand year old Vampire into the very back of his mind, locking all of that stuff behind very tight Occulumency shields, while he kept the Kaleb memories at the forefront of his mind, though sorted into the correct places.
"Alright so..." The vampire sat on the bed, dressed in the finest robes he could find. "I was Harry Potter, 6500 year old vampire, I had a child called Janice who helped me come back to the past. Now I'm Kaleb Potter, I was born 23 Febuary, 1957, I am twenty four years old. I'm the older brother of James Potter. I was a Ravenclaw and I was also a prefect for two years in a row and then Head Boy. I graduated with top marks. I have friends from all of the houses. Dorea and Charles Potter, my parents, died on the twenty-second of March... And James and Lily died two days ago."
Kaleb flicked his wrist and stared at the date and time before quickly jumping up.
"I've got twenty minutes to get to Gringotts." He murmured before with a soft pop he apparated from his apartment and straight into Diagon Alley, thankfully behind some shops where no-one would notice him.
Walking quickly, he made his way to Gringotts. Without even acknowledging anyone in the bank he walked up to a teller and handed the goblin the letter.
"This way Mr Potter, you are the last one to arrive." The goblin hopped off his chair and led Kaleb down the halls towards the back of the bank before opening the door and letting the man inside.
"Forgive me for being late." Kaleb murmured. "I am still mourning the loss of my brother and his wife and I wasn't aware of what time it was."
"That is alright Mr Potter." The goblin behind the desk waved a clawed hand, waving off the wizards apology. "Now that everyone is here, we can start the reading of the will."
Kaleb looked around the room before narrowing his eyes when he didn't see Sirius Black there.
"Excuse me, but where is Sirius?" Kaleb questioned with a frown. "He should be here as I know that James certainly left something for him."
"Mr... Black is currently in Azkaban." Albus Dumbledore said with a smile. "He has been found of betrayal."
"Excuse me?!" Kaleb raged, his eyes narrowed in anger. He was about to tear the man a new one though before he could do that he was given a look from the goblin which made him calm down just a tiny bit.
"This is the last will and testament of James and Lily Potter." With a clawed finger the goblin tapped the will orb three times before the image of James and Lily appeared.
"I, James Potter, being of sound body and mind," James started.
"And I, Lily Evans-Potter, being of sound body and mind," Lily said her part.
"Hereby declare this our last will and testament." The two said together before James' image stepped forward.
"I will be the first one to bequeath things.
Remus Lupin, I hereby leave you 1,000,000 galleons and a small house in Cornwall with a warded forest. You were a great friend to have and I am glad I got to know you. Take care of Padfoot and Prongslet Moony, they will both need you.
Sirius Black, you were my brother in all but blood. We spent many years together from when we could practically walk to when we were together in the Auror forces. I leave you with 2,500,000 galleons along. I know that you would have liked to get Harry's guardianship but Lily and I have someone else in mind. We just hope that you won't take this badly and we both hope that you can be there for Prongslet as the funny and cool uncle Pa'oot.
Severus Snape, I leave you my most sincere apologizes and 500,000 galleons. I know I was a right dick to you at Hogwarts and you have no need to accept my apologizes nor anything else I really leave you. My brother taught me that I shouldn't judge a person based on their house but I was a stupid and foolish kid and after I graduated Hogwarts I had no way of contacting you to apologize.
Albus Dumbledore, I leave you with 250,000 galleons. You were a mentor to me and while you are certainly great you are not all knowing. I know how much you wish to mean well but sometimes you meaning well can get someone into deep trouble.
Minevra McGonagall, I leave you with my sincere apologize for the many times I annoyed you with my pranks or my stupidity. I hope that you forgive me for all my transgressions.
While I would like to leave things to my son, I know that it would be irresponsible of me as I am quite sure that he is much too young to be taking care of anything.
So, lastly, I leave everything else which includes the Potter, Gryffindor and Peverell titles with all of the vaults, properties and everything else to my dear brother Kaleb Potter. I also leave to you the guardianship of Harry. I know that after Lily and I went into hiding with Harry we didn't have much time to converse but you are still my dear older brother and I can trust you to take care of both my Prongslet and the titles I left you.
After the reading finishes, the goblins can tell you everything you need to know Kaleb. Just know, that I trust you with my son and that I know you will do whats' right by him."
James then stepped back and Lily stepped forward with a small smile on her face.
"I don't have many people that I will be leaving things to considering that James practically forced me to let him just leave things to Siri and Remmy.
Severus Snape, I leave you with my forgivness of what happened in fifth year along with my collection of Potion texts and ingridients that I collected over the years. You were a very dear friend to me and you still are. I had hoped that we could have had time to talk but alas it seems that my life had to be taken early. I hope that you can look past your difference with James and not judge Harry solely based on who his father was.
Alice Longbottom, I leave you with 1,000,000 galleons. You and I spent so many years together it's unbelievable. What is more unbelievable is the fact that both of our sons were born on the same day. I hope that you, Frank and young Neville are both okay and while I wish that we met a few more times, I hope that my Harry and your Neville grow up to regard each other as brothers.
Sirius Black, while I am not leaving you any money, I am leaving you with a request. Please, for the love of Merlin, do not teach my son to be all about pranks and fun. Just like James, I hope dearly that you are not upset at us giving Harry's guardianship to Kaleb. However we do want you to have a say in Harry's childhood so we hope that you help Kaleb with that.
Remus Lupin, while James left you money and a house, I leave you with all of my defence texts that I managed to get my hands on. Take dear care of them as they are quite old. Just like Sirius is to help Kaleb with the raising of Harry, we want you to help as well.
And finally, Kaleb Potter, I leave you with everything else I own.
It isn't much but then again compared to the Potter fortune I don't think anything else would add up to it.
Please take dear care of Harry and teach him anything and everything you can. Just don't let him grow up into being an arrogant, spoilt brat. I really don't want to have to come back as a ghost Kaleb."
When the images of James and Lily flickered out, the goblin stepped forward once again.
"This concludes the will of James and Lily Potter." The goblin turned beedy eyes onto Kaleb. "Would you like to deny someone anything Lord Potter?"
"No." Kaleb shook his head. "Everything is how it's supposed to be."
"I must insist Mr Potter, that you should deny Sirius Black his things. After all he is a criminal." Albus said with a smile and twinkling eyes.
"Sirius is not a criminal nor is he a traitor." Kaleb said sharply, his eyes narrowed. "Now, I will talk to the DMLE about that later. For now I want to know where Harry is."
"He's... safely hidden away." Albus said. "I would like for you to hand over the guardianship of Harry to myself."
"Hell no." Kaleb scowled at the man. "Harry is now under my guardianship just like James and Lily wanted. Now, where is he?"
"He's at the Dursley's Kaleb." Minevra spoke up when she saw that Albus wasn't about to.
"...Excuse me?!" The Potter Lord inhaled sharply, his magic practically crackling as he reigned it in. "You left my nephew with magic hating muggles?!"
"Lily's sacrifice let me enact Blood Wards around the house." Dumbledore said. "He is protected and no harm will come to him. As long as he calls that place home."
"Blood Wards?! No harm?!" Kaleb stood up and towered over the Hogwarts Headmaster, his eyes narrowed. "Are you trying to get Harry killed old man?! Blood wards cannot be used with muggles! There is a reason for that!"
"What do you mean Kaleb?" Minevra frowned.
"Blood wards do not work like Dumbledore says." Kaleb snarled. "If you'll excuse me, I would like to go and fetch my nephew first before we do anything else."
"Of course Lord Potter, we will keep everyone here until you come with young Harry." Silvertooth said. "You may apparate from here and then in here."
"Thank you, I'll be back in a few minutes." His eyes narrowed, Kaleb gave Dumbledore a warning look before he apparated from the bank and straight onto the street of Privet Drive.
Looking around, his eyes zeroed in on the house with the number four which he quickly strolled towards, making sure to transfigure his robes into muggle clothes as to not look out of place. Knocking on the door twice, he pursed his lips and waited for someone to open the door. Convinetnly that someone was Petunia Dursley, Lily Potter's, sister.
"Yes?" The woman sneered at him. "How may I help you?"
"Tut tut, Petunia, I'm surprised you don't recognize me." Kaleb smirked at her and his smirk widened when the woman's eyes widened.
"You..." Petunia stumbled back from the door. "Wh...What do you want?!" She hissed out.
"My nephew." Kaleb sneered as he stepped into the house. "As soon as you hand him over to me I will be gone and you will never have to see me or Harry ever again."
Petunia's eyes narrowed before she walked up the stairs and then walked back down with a basket that held his sleeping nephew.
"Here, take him." She shoved the basket to him, sneering at the baby in it. "I don't want to see you or him ever again. Goodbye."
When she slammed the door in his face he rolled his eyes and snorted.
"Foolish woman." He muttered before he apparated away from Privet Drive and straight into Gringotts, without even looking at Dumbledore, he placed the basket on the chair before lightly scooping Harry out of it and holding the toddler close to his chest.
"Oh Harry." Kaleb murmured before a quiet whine made him look up and stare at Remus who was staring forlornly at the babe in his arms. "Here, you hold him." He walked towards the werewolf and passed Harry to the man before he waved a hand over the two, putting up silencing charms.
"Let me tell you something Albus Dumbledore, unlike James and Lily, I do not hold you in high regard and frankly I hold your words with more then just a grain of salt." Kaleb stalked towards the white-haired wizard, his eyes narrowed. "Unlike most people, I am not your greatest fan and I will never be. There is a reason why I was put in Ravenclaw and you not."
"Mr Potter, when you said that Blood Wards do not work like what Albus what did you mean by that?" Minevra questioned and everyone in the room focused on the man, except from Remus who was cooing quietly to Harry.
"There is a reason why Blood Wards, and any wards that need a sacrifice really, is under the Black Arts." Kaleb said, his arms crossed over his chest. "Blood Wards do not power themselves by the inhabitant, in this case Harry, thinking of that place as home or feeling any kind of emotional connection to Petunia. Blood Wards are powered by a Wizards Magic." The last word was hissed out in anger. "And Harry was the only person in that house hold with any magic! As it is, the Blood Wards didn't do any damage to Harry's core but if he had stayed for even longer then a month you would have had a dead toddler on your hands. That is the reason why muggle relations are never allowed to take care of a magical child if Blood Wards are need."
Minevra let out a horrified gasp and even Severus stared at Albus in shock. He couldn't believe that the man would be so stupid to risk Harry that way.
"As it stands I will be taking care of Harry in my own house which is warded tighter then Hogwarts and Gringotts combined together." Kaleb said before turning away from Dumbledore and towards the Goblin. "Can we get everything signed before anything else? I also need to head to the DMLE to have them release Sirius."
"On what grounds Mr Potter?" Dumbledore questioned. "He betrayed James and Lily Potter. He was their secret keeper."
"No he wasn't." Kaleb refuted that. "A few days after you cast the Fidelius using Sirius as the secret keeper both James and Siri came to me and asked me to change the secret from Sirius to Peter. They knew that Sirius would be thought of as the obvious choice so they decided that Peter would be much better to hold the secret."
"Why wasn't I informed of this?" Dumbledore's eyes were narrowed and Kaleb was quite sure that the man was silently fuming that none of his plans were going where they were supposed to go.
"You didn't need to know." Kaleb sneered as he proceeded to sign the documents which showed who got what. He also signed the guardianship papers over Harry.
"Now if that is all, I will be taking Remus and Harry with me before having Sirius freed into my custody until a trail can be set for him." He turned on his heel and motioned for Remus to stand up while he took off the silencing charms he placed around the two. "Remus, you are coming with me and Harry. Just sign the parchment and we will be gone. Silvertooth, could you please inform the Potter Manager that I would like for the ledgers of Potter, Gryffindor and Peverell to be sent over and that I would also like for him to make an appointment for whenever he has free."
"Of course." Silvertooth nodded.
Everyone in the room just blinked as Kaleb practically forced the werewolf to sign the documents before grabbing a hold of the mans arm.
"Goodbye then. Oh yes, I would like for James and Lily's bodies to be released to me. You have two days to do so Albus."
With that the twenty four year old Potter, twenty one year old Lupin and fifteen month old Harry Potter disappeared from Gringotts.
Authors Note; This is the first chapter of a story that I think may become something more. If you have any idea for a title just tell me through reviews and I will pick one.
