Lucifer Everto was not your normal boy. For starters, he was a nastier version of Dudley Dursley.
Several complaints had been made by his teachers regarding his mischievous behaviour. The children in the neighbourhood were frightened of him. He was sent to a counselor at the age of thirteen after a completely gruesome 'accident'. Social Services ran a check and found out that Lucifer lived completely alone with his single mother Terry, who was barely fourteen years older than him. Terry was repeatedly quizzed as to who Lucifer's father was, but she refused to answer.
Lucifer however, was smarter. He knew his mother would never reveal his father's name so he did a little research, and found out that Terry had dropped out of school in sixth grade, though it was not allowed in her school. He also learnt that his grandparents were astoundingly rich. That's when he realized the painful truth-he was an illegitimate child, and would always be.
On his fifteenth birthday when Lucifer was cleaning the house, he found envelopes from Hogwarts addressed to his mother. He read them curiously and was shocked to find that the letters were admissions to a school of magic. He went to his mother's bedroom, and took out her photo album. Within the pages were several pictures of her wearing a school uniform and hanging out with her friends. He noticed that maximum of the pictures were with a spectacled boy, who was not exactly handsome, but had a boyish appeal to him.
He removed her diary and read the pages, not feeling a single ounce of guilt. I deserve to know the truth, he decided. As he read the pages, secrets came to the limelight, horrible shocking secrets. The diary ended like this.
I don't know why he did this to me. Dumbledore is under pressure from the trustees to suspend me. He keeps coming and asking me who the father of my baby is. But if I tell Dumbledore the truth, he will be kicked out too. He looks so happy with her. I love him too much to destroy his happiness.
Lucifer shut the book angrily and went looking for his mother. He found her in the kitchen, hanging from a ceiling fan. She'd seen him reading her diary.

Lucifer was sent to his uncle, his only living relative. His name was Brian Lewis, and he was one of Voldemort's aides. He had fled Hogwarts after Voldemort's death, and lived in hiding in one of the most impoverished suburbs of London. Lucifer asked his uncle the truth, and Brian told him everything-from Terry's affair to her subsequent pregnancy.
"She could have chosen to kill you, but she didn't. She loved him, and she loved you a lot." Brian sighed. "If only she'd been like me and followed Voldemort. She might have been spared the heartbreak then."
Brian enrolled Lucifer at Durmstrang. "Your mother would have killed me if I took you back to that godforsaken place Hogwarts again." Lucifer loved the place. He immediately blended in with the students.
The hot topic in Durmstrang was a boy called Harry Potter. Lucifer researched him in the Durmstrang library. He decided Harry was too dull till he read the following passage.
Harry is the son of the late James and Lily Potter.
He read the sentence over and over again. He then went and looked into the mirror. If it wasn't for the eyes and the shape of his face, he could have easily passed for Harry.
Lucifer had made his decision-despite his mother's wish, he would go to Hogwarts.
