Lily Potter had been called many things in her life, but stupid was not one of them. Lily saw the calculating gleam in Dumbledore's eyes when he looked at Harry at the Order meetings. She also saw the writing on the wall when Sirius and James thought it would be a great prank to switch the secret keeper and tell only three people. That was the moment she stopped considering James her husband and when she began to enact her plan. The Potter library was a well of lost and forgotten arts that she could use to protect her baby. Creating an intelligent and growing golem in the likeness of her baby was rather easy and it was just another sign of stupidity from the ministry for banning the magic.
Now, it was time to say goodbye to little Harry and it felt like her heart was being ripped out of her chest whenever she thought about it, but this was for Harry's life. Lily had a cousin in America that she was rather close to. It was a sad state of fair when she was closer to Ann Possible than her own sister. Lily knew that Ann had a child just a few months ago and she really hoped that Ann wouldn't mind taking in another child. The goblins had agreed, thankfully, to disclose the locations of their other banks in different countries so at least Ann would not hurt for money. Sealing the letter that would hopefully explain enough of her questions, Lily tucked Harry into the portkey regulated crib that had cost a pretty penny.
"Be good for your Aunt Ann my baby," Lily whispered tearfully. "I hope that this isn't the last time I see you my sweet boy, but if it is I hope that you have a happy life. Know that mummy loves you with all her heart Harry. I will always be with you." With shaking hands Lily cast the incantation on the crib with her baby and the letter and watched it vanish. She spent the next hour in the hidden room crying as she tried to repair the shattered pieces to her heart. She had to act like there was nothing wrong to sell the fact that it was a golem in the crib upstairs instead of a human baby. It was Halloween and she needed to celebrate as a witch.
Middleton, USA…
A bright light interrupted the Possible's meal as the two new parents sat down with their three month old and tried to eat a meal in the rare moments that Kimberly was fully satisfied. Ann instinctively wrapped Kim in her arms turning her back to the strange object while James stepped in front of the two women in his life ready to fight and defend. James visibly startled when he recognized a crib with a child inside.
"Honey, did you order another baby?" James asked, he was slightly confused and that was reasonable.
Turning to find out was wrong Ann gasped as she saw the sleeping child and the letter in the distinctive hand of her cousin. "James, hold Kim, I need to read this letter." Ripping opend the parchment, Ann read:
Dear Ann,
I'm sure you are confused about why Harry just arrived in your home as well the how. The why is easier to explain, so bear with me. Little Harry is targeted by a mad man in charge of a terrorist organization over here. I'll explain that why during the how. We went into hiding, but my husband, and I use that term only because divorce isn't possible at the moment, thought it was be a great joke to change the one with our location to a sniveling little coward. While this was going on, our mentor had a gleaming look in his eye that made me concerned for my baby. I know you are a new mother and I'm sure you've already decided that little Kimberly's needs will be placed far above your own, so you can understand why I sent Harry away even though it killed me.
Now, explaining how Harry arrived in your home will take a bit of a leap of faith on your part, but please believe me when I say everything in this letter is true. Magic is real! Those stories of Merlin and dragons that we loved so much as a kids are actually true! Ann, I have seen a real dragon! If you need more proof, there's a map in the envelope to Gringott's, a magical bank, just take Harry with you and they'll help get you adjusted.
Remember that terrorist? He's magical too and apparently there is a prophecy that says my baby will be the one to defeat him. How my boy can defeat a wizard with half a century of knowledge on him confuses me greatly. However, if I have learned one thing in this hidden world it's that wizards lack intelligence and common sense. We have gone into hiding underneath a charm that is supposed to keep us secret, but it can be broken fairly easily. I'm worried that it is only a matter of time before this Lord Voldemort finds us. I can't risk my baby like that, so I hope that you can take him in. I would have sent him to Petunia, but you saw us last time we were together. She never enjoyed the fact that I had magic and it has driven a wedge between us that I'm afraid we will never be able to overcome.
The goblins at Gringotts have been paid quite well so that as soon as Harry turns eight, magical tutors will show up and teach Harry so that he can got to regular school. I hope you take him in, or if not find him a good home. If all of this blows over, I'll show up and take him back, but I'm worried that that is just wishful thinking. I'll send a message every week to let you know if I'm alive or not.
Your Cousin,
Lily Potter
It was then that Harry decided to wake up and looked around curiously. Motioning with his chubby little hands toward Ann who looked remarkably like Lily. Kim decided that she did not like that attention was away from her and decided to make her feeling known. Frowning at the crying baby, Harry squirmed his way over to what he assumed was just a new addition to the family. Harry and Kim stared at each other for a moment before both smiled and giggled.
Ann made her way over to James as she watched the two gurgle and laugh. "Welcome to the family Harry Potter," Ann whispered.
A/N: Hey all, I know I have a few other stories going on, but this wouldn't leave me alone. What can I say I like Kim Possible. Anyways, is there any interest in this story? I made the chapter kind of short I know, but I wanted to know that people would be interested before I wrote longer chapters. This was just an intro anyway.
If this story does continue, the golem Harry will be canon Harry and wizarding Britain may or may not show up. I haven't decided yet. Let me know if you like the idea and want to see more!
