Prologue/Chapter 1
Voldemort is dead in this fic, Harry kills him in the MOM battle, this fic is nothing to do with Voldemort and his Death Eaters though they might get mentioned at one point or another.
And thanks to YamiRyo for agreeing to be my beta for this fic!
Life for Harry Potter had not been easy by any amount. His parent's died protecting him with their life, so he was sent to live with his relatives only to find that they were abusive. At the age of eleven Harry found out that he was a wizard and was soon sorted into Gryffindor…but that was when the problems started.
***Flashback***
"Slytherin!" Cried the sorting hat much to the shock of everyone in the Great Hall.
As Harry stood up and was about to take the sorting hat of Headmaster Dumbledore's voice echoed though out the Great Hall.
"Sorting Hat, I think you may have the wrong house for Mr. Potter," Dumbledore said as he sent a look to the sorting hat.
Inside his head the Harry could hear the sorting hat's mutterings:
'Stupid old coot, can't he see that the bat in the snake den would be the best for this boy? Hasn't the old man thought about the boy's creature inheritance, I'm not happy about this at all! Not one bit!'
"Sorting Hat," Dumbledore said with more steal to his voice. He didn't notice everyone in the Great Hall, except the Gryffindor's, glaring at him.
'I am sorry my boy, I promise to find a way to save you somehow' the sorting hat whispered into his ear and then called out "Gryffindor!"
As Harry removed the sorting hat and went to sit at Gryffindor table, only the Headmaster and the Gryffindor was clapping, everyone else was too busy glaring at the Headmaster who just sat there with a smug look on his face ignoring everyone else.
***End of Flash Back***
From that moment on Harry was forced to do these little training tasks for the Headmaster, each year they got harder and harder. As Harry went though his year's at Hogwarts everyone and anyone who wasn't a Gryffindor did their best to help Harry have a break from the Headmaster and the Gryffindor's but these rest bits couldn't be for long.
***Flash Back***
"Hey Harry,"
Looking up quickly to where the voice came from, Harry was realized to find that it wasn't the ones he was trying to get away from.
"Hey Draco, how are you?" Harry asked with a small smile, he enjoyed Hogwarts just not having to be in Gryffindor.
"I'm fine thanks but were all worried about you, it's getting close to your sixteenth birthday and as you're a submissive we know it's going to be hell for you," Draco said as he looked at his friend's pale and tired face.
"I'll be fine Draco," Harry said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.
"I know your strong Harry but that doesn't stop all of us from worrying about you having to deal with those lions or the old goat." Draco told him softly.
***End of Flash Back***
It had turned out that Draco had been right, once he had returned to Hogwarts for his sixth year it had been hell. With his now submissive creature inheritance, which was that of an elf phoenix, Harry found himself being bossed around more and more by the Gryffindor's as though he were some animal who had a mental disability or something, couldn't they understand that he really needed to find his mate? Also, why wouldn't Dumbledore allow him to follow his creature side? Why did he have to keep his wings out but everything else hidden?
***Flash Back***
"Harry. You. Will. Sit. Here," Ron said to Harry as he did big arm movements with every word.
"I understand you perfectly Ron and you don't have to talk to me like that," Harry said, he just wanted to find his mate.
"Well. Done," Seamus said as he tried to pet Harry's wings.
Before he could Cho Chang spoke "Don't you know that he doesn't like his wings being touched."
"Shut up Chang," Hermione said with a glare "His just a filthy creature now so why would we treat him like a human?"
***End of Flash Back***
It had been going on like this now for the past couple of months and it's was now November. Both students and staff could see that Harry not having his dominate mate with him was taking its toll and even though they was still looking for Harry's mate without the Headmaster or any of the Gryffindor's knowledge it didn't help much.
As mid November came around they were slowly giving up hope of ever finding Harry's mate and saving Harry, it was in the middle of November that hope came to them all but the Headmaster and the Gryffindor's.
***Present time or Normal POV***
"Now then, let's have our breakfast and we can be off to classes," Dumbledore said after his morning announcements.
Before anyone could say or do anything else, Fawkes flamed into the Great Hall with the sorting hat in his beak.
"For too long have you manipulated these people Dumbledore, you and your Gryffindor's have ruled this school for far too long…Hogwarts and its inhabitantes have agreed with me and this course of action, so mote it be."
"But sorting hat I don't think-" Dumbledore started but was cut off by the sorting hat.
"Exactly Dumbledore, you don't think. May what I'm about to do teach you the error of your ways and set you free!"
With that said the sorting hat grew brighter and brighter until the light from the sorting hat covered the Great Hall. After a few minutes as the teachers gathered the students together in the middle of the Great Hall, the light disappeared only for them to come face to face with the founder's of Hogwarts themselves.
