30th July 1995
It was another normal night when you could see a boy looking out of the window of the smallest bedroom of 4 Privet Drive. The boy was Harry Potter, the boy-who-lived, the saviour of the wizarding world and when midnight arrives he'll be 15 years old. A shiver went up the raven-haired boys' spine but he ignored it. Now there were only 10 seconds left...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1. The youth was engulfed in searing pain worse than the cruciatus-curse. After what felt like hours- that truly had only been 10 minutes- the boy gratefully welcomed the abyss of unconsciousness.
The next time Harry awoke it was already morning. Since they knew of his godfather the Dursleys left him alone so he didn't have to worry about them. Not that he did before, he could always use wandless magic like he did before he came to Hogwarts because the Ministry couldn't detect anything done without a wand. He noticed the pain was completely gone. He also noticed that he didn't wear his glasses but could see perfectly fine, even better than he did with his glasses. He remembered reading about something like this. It was called "magical inheritance" and sometimes, when you had creature-blood in your blood-line, you could get a "creature inheritance". Harry wasn't as stupid and naive as everyone thought he was- the sorting hat wanted to put him into Slytherin for a reason- he knew that he wasn't truly a Potter and hoped his inheritance would help in finding his true parents. He stood up and looked at his mirror, only to be shocked by what he saw. There was nothing that resembled his old appearance. His once black and messy hair was now white and hung loosely around his hips in soft waves. While looking at his hips he also noticed he now had a tail- a black demon-tail. After getting over the shock of having a tail he continued to look at his new appearance. His right eye was ice-blue with an emerald-green ring around it and his left eye was emerald-green with an ice-blue ring. He also grew so he now stood at 1.75m instead of 1.65m and his face looked different; he now had very aristocratic features. His face looked familiar but he couldn't quite place it. Before he could think more about it he noticed he had pointed ears. Okay, so I'm part demon and part elf...interesting. Now that he could look at himself without any more suprises he noticed why his face looked so familiar; he looked like a younger version of Tom Riddle!
After he got over the shock of being the son of the most dangerous Dark Lord of modern times he noticed the impatient tapping of the owls waiting to be let into the room. He went over to the window and opened it. There were now four owls in total in his room. Hedwig, Ron's owl pig, Hermione's owl Athena and Draco's owl Ares. Every owl but Hedwig had a package and a letter. He first opened Ron's gift' he gave him a book about the Chudley Cannons and some sweets. As he read the letter, if you could call it that, he started laughing. It read:
'Harry,
I don't think we should be friends anymore, you always drag me into dangerous situations and I want to be alive for a little longer.
Bye, Ron'
Ok, I should've expected this one coming. Let's see what the mudblood Granger wrote. With that he opened the second gift. Unsuprisingly Granger got him some books but the letter she wrote was much more interesting than the books.
'Dear Harry,
I'm sorry to tell you this but I think it is the best for both of us when we end this friendship. I think it's too dangerous around you and it annoys me to no end that I have to lecture you and Ron all the time and even then you don't do anything so I leave you this advice: Learn! If you want to have a good-paying job in the future you have to work for it.
Bye, Hermione'
As if she really means that. If I'd do better than her she'd only get angr g and acuse me of cheating. Also with an eidetic memory I don't really need to learn. Well let's see what Draco wrote. The next present he opened held a bracelet in form of a silver snake with emeralds as eyes biting it's own tail. After putting on the gift the blonde got him he read Draco's letter.
'Hey Princess,
I hope you're doing okay at the muggles'. It's been awfully boring without you and mother wants you to visit, she misses to go shopping with you and Aunt Bella. I got into my inheritance on my birthday, I always knew that I'm part veela but it came as a suprise that I'm also part vampire. Did you get your inheritance yet? If so I'm really interested what happened. I'm sorry I can't write more but Sev says if I don't go back to studying I won't ever be able to pass his class, he and Tom also send their greetings and say they want to give you their present in person.
Lots of Love, Dragon'
To most of the wizarding world this letter wouldn't make much sense because only a few people knew that Harry and Draco weren't rivals as everyone thought but a couple. Nobody really knows how it happened, not even the young lovers, but it did and it couldn't be betterbetter. Now that the now white-haired boy had unpacked all gifts he started writing responses to the letters he got. He started with Ron.
'Hey Ron,
Thanks for the book about your favourite quidditch-team. I'm sorry that you think that your only friend besides Hermione is too dangerous to be around. I hope you have a happy life.
Bye, Harry'
He gave the letter to Pig and let the owl fly away. His letter to Hermione was a bit different.
'Hi Hermione,
I'm glad that you've been able to express your feelings to me so well and I'll take your advice to heart and study more but if I get better grades then you do please remind yourself that you said I should learn more.
Bye, Harry'
After he gave Athena the letter he went on and started writing a response to Draco.
'Hey Dragon,
I'm doing fine and hope you do as well. I do miss Cissy and Bella too and would be more than happy to visit. I already got my Inheritance and you'll never guess what I am. I'm part demon and part elf and I look an awful lot like Tom. Shocking right?! Thanks for the bracelet I love it, it's perfect. Now on to something different; the weasel and the mudblood ended our "friendship" because I'm "too dangerous to be around". I'd appreciate it if you'd pick me upsometime tomorrow afternoon. I also need to go to Gringotts. Please send Severus and Tom my greetings.
Love, Princess'
After he sent the last letter away he went downstairs to make breakfast. He made scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, fresh orange-juice and more. The smell of food attracted the Dursleys, who stared at him for 5 minutes straight before Petunia asked:" What happened to you , boy?" "I came into my inheritance and it looks as though I am part demon and part elf. But that aside ; I made breakfast. Dig in!" After that the Dursleys looked at him like he had suddenly grown a second head before Aunt Petunia came to her senses and asked the question Harry's been waiting for:" Why don't you look.like Lil g and James?" " Because they aren't my parents. They knew I wasn't their child but in their will it was stated that I was to inherit everything and that means I also own this house, so don't even think of throwing me out, Vernon. Now I think I talked to you enough for one day so I'm going upstairs. Bye." With that he went upstairs and unknowingly to the Dursleys he cast a slightly different version of the obliviate spell on them; they wouldn't forget what he said but everytime they'd try to tell someone they'd forget what they wanted to say.
Later that day Harry got ashort letter from Draco.
'Hey Princess,
I was really shocked about what you wrote to me in your last letter so I immediately went to mum and asked her if she knew something that could help. She said she first wants to see you before she says anything so we'll have to wait 'till tomorrow. We, that means mum, dad and me are going to get you somewhere around lunchtime. Dad said he wanted to have some fun with the muggles. Until tomorrow.
Love, Dragon'
Not long after reading the letter he went downstairs to fix dinner and then went back to his room to go to sleep.
The next morning the Dursleys immediately noticed something was off. Harry never was so happy, he looked like Christmas had come early. When asked he just said" You'll have to wait 'till lunchtime if you want to know." After what seemed to be an eternity of uncomfortable silence- at least that's how the Dursleys felt- someone knocked at the door. Immediately Harry went to get the door with an emotionless expression that frightened the Dursleys to no end. They heard the door being opened and then some muffled conversation. They heard two male voices, one of them sounding like it belonged to a boy of Harry's age and one that could belong to the first one's father. Then they also heard female laughter and wondered just who had knocked at their door. After a few minutes the white-haired boy came back and with him three other people. Now that they were back in the living room Harry introduced his guests. " So, this is Lord Lucius Abraxas Malfoy with his lovely wife Lady Narcissa Malfoy nee Black and their gorgeous son Heir Draconis Lucius Malfoy. Now I think Lucius wanted to tell you what this situation is about, so have fun." With that he turned to Draco and started kissing him while Lucius started talking:" Hello, I am, as Heir Potter-Black already said, Lord Lucius Malfoy. I don't care what he told you but I'll inform you about the important things. My son Draco and your nephew Harry are in a quite intimate relationship as you can see and Heir Potter-Black asked to spend the rest of the holidays at our manor. So we are taking him with us.With that I wish you all a pleasant day. Harry, Draco, come." With that the three Malfoys and one Potter left the Dursleys' house and apparated to Malfoy Manor.
