A/n (do people even read these?): -ahem- Hi I'm Insanity-overload or Jade if you wish. This is my first ever Fanfiction that's actually posted here or anywhere on the Internet really. So, in advance, I'm really sorry if there is spelling mistakes or grammar mistakes I don't have Microsoft Word only OpenOffice which isn't that great. Also I'm an amateur writer so my writing may not be as awesome as others out there. But I hope you enjoy it anyhow.

Warnings: Language, AU, OC's (yes, the dreaded OC's), OOC's and mentions of blood and death! (mwuahaha...okay I'll stop now)

Disclaimer: I don't any Harry Potter because if I did there wouldn't be a book out yet.

Prologue

Disgust and dislike run through his body as emotionless, dark eyes watched an aged man wearing extravagant robes hold a small bundle closes to his being. It was pathetic, really, watching this man try to plot this young boy's future. Trying to mold him into another loyal, mindless puppet until he outlived his usefulness and his thrown away with all the others. It made him sick to his core. It was because of this man they had lost one of their own, one who sacrificed everything for him to ensure the protection their lover.

Black eyes narrowed as a small growl made its way past his lips. An urge to reap this man's soul surfaced as more anger coursed through him.

"Calm yourself no deaths caused by us will happen tonight" A smooth, melodious voice, hinted with power, whispered besides him.

He tensed slightly from the sudden noise but slowly relaxed and bowed his head in respect.

"Of course my sire but I cannot feel nothing but dislike for this man. One of his greatest asset is gone yet he feels nothing. No remorse, no fear, nothing yet he has plans for the youngling" he exclaimed never taking his eyes off the man now talking to an older woman, Minerva McGonagall.

Soft humorless chuckling reached his eyes. "Albus is a cunning old fool. It's not surprising he would show his true colors now since the boy has no one and is at very impressionable state." Dark amber eyes watched Albus as he laid the small bundle on the doorstep of number 4, Privet Drive, " His plan, I must say, is quite well thought out. Knowing that the boy will not be shown love or even cared for will affect him years later with his hopes to escape. Then will he reveal himself like the answers to his prayers and allow the boy to blindly put his trust and loyalty in him."

"We could easily save the boy from that fate my Sire"

"We could, yes, but let Albus think he has outsmarted us. Let his confidence be his downfall. "

"of course my Sire"

Both men watched silently as Albus Dumbledore disappear into the night and the woman transformed into a cat then wandered off. They remained until the front door opened and a tall, skinny woman and a very plump man came out and got sight of the bundle. They watched the woman and the man read the note placed with the baby and exclaim loudly. The woman grumbled but reluctantly went in with their newest member of their family.

When they sky started to light up and chase away the darkness the men were gone leaving no trace that they were ever there.

Inside the dark house of number 4, Privet Drive young Harry James Potter slept peacefully unaware of the fate laid out before him or the war he would be involved in without his choice.
