Prologue
It was a rainy day in London, it was always a rainy day in London this time of the month though. It was November the 2nd and it was barely 2 hours ago that they had got this... this thing! The son of his wife's freaky sister.
How dare the freak die and leave the boy with THEM?! They were normal folk for crying out loud! They didn't need the child to mess up their perfect family! Oh no... no way! He was putting the kid back in the streets, 'go to where you came from' he thought leaving the basket containing the tiny baby in a dark alley, not bothering to leave anything to cover the boy.
With that Vernon Dursley, left his nephew, Harry James Potter in the alley between the main street and Grimmald Street. A pair of coal black eyes watching the entire scene.
Severus sneered at the fat muggle walking away. He carefully raised his wand, casting a Withering charm on him. It would -hopefully- make the man wither, losing fat, than muscle, skin and so on. A lovely experiment.
A soft wail distracted him from his musing about the lovely month he would have watching Dursley wither away. He looked at the baby, he was too small to be one and 3 months. At least he thought so, never mind that Draco was the same size.
As the rain poured the baby extended his little hands towards Severus, his green eyes moist with tears and rain. Rain, right. He sighed, casting a drying charm then a spell to keep the kid warm before picking him up, he glanced at the baby blue blanket beneath him, pointing his wand at the offending colour turning it a shiny grey, almost silver fabric.
"Right, you obviously can't stay with those muggles Harry. So how about I take you to 'Ticia?" He asked not really expecting an answer. In return Harry just yawed, only four little teeth (that looked like grains of rice) on his mouth. The little boy just looked at Severus, sticking his left hand on his mouth before snuggling into Severus' robes.
The man frowned, keeping a tight hold of the boy as he walked away. He needed to see his half sister and her husband.
He needed to see Morticia Addams.
