Prologue
AN :( I know the prophesy is a bit lame but it's my first fic go easy on me)
The Prophesy of Merlin about his true heir
At this time of great need
The heir of Merlin shall come into being
And he shall bear heirlooms of all four founders
This shall be given to him as a co-founder
He shall control fire and earth
Water and air he shall also wield
He shall also possess special powers
Which he would use to defeat the dark powers.
Hermione Granger shut the book, with a bang, Across her were different books strewn across the room
Her eyes widened. "Wow," she stated, "that's some prophecy. I wonder if it's true, and if it is, who the heir is or if has been born yet, we could definitely need the heir at these troubled times.
As she was about to get up, she heard a shout from downstairs,
"Hermione" Her elder sister shouted "Mum wants you to tidy up your room and join us outside; we are going for a swim"
"Ok I'll be down in a sec" she called back.
Although she was just about to put the book away, Hermione had a strange feeling that she should copy the prophecy down. Taking out another sheet of parchment, she neatly wrote it down, along with the title of the book she found it in, which was 'A Complete Guide to the Greatest Witches and Wizards of the Ages.'
Glancing at the window high above her, Hermione noticed that the sun was still shining brightly outside.
"Might as well enjoy a bit of the weather," she thought as she began packing all her books and other items into her bag. She quickly shoved the remaining books onto the shelves they belonged on before picking her bag up and striding out of her room and deciding to join everyone in preparing to go swimming.
The prophecy of Merlin was shoved to the back of her brain and forgotten for a short while.
Chapter One: The Heir of Merlin
Number four Privet drive had never felt so lonely. The grey wall to the right of the bed had been poor company for the past two weeks, but still he lay there and stared at it. Behind him the rattling cage brought him out of his hypnotic fascination with the wall whose colour so accurately reflected his mood.
Rolling over he swung his legs off the edge of the bed and got up. The wave of dizziness that soon followed caused him to grab the chair at his desk in order to remain vertical. Between lack of sleep and the virtual starvations he had endured this last week, it was a wonder how he was still able to stand at all.
There was a hoot in the corner which grabbed his emerald eyes attention.
"Ah Hedwig". He said "you have returned"
The snowy owl hooted her answer and flew over to the cage angrily.
He sighed "I never wanted to spend my summer holidays in this God forsaken place, I am only staying here because Old Dumbledore forced me to not becauseI see it fit to inflict boredom on you and I.
Some would say that a snowy owl was an odd pet for a 15 year old boy, but then again, odd seemed to be the only word that could describe this 15 year old boy to begin with.
Harry Potter was far from normal.
A quick look around the room would reveal a whole new world to the average person: books strewn about with such titles as 'Standard book of spells: grade 5' and 'Jinxes for the Jinxed', a metal cauldron sitting in the corner, pictures of people who were still moving, there was also a piece of stick which looked a bit like a conductor'sbaton but Idon't think I have ever met a conductor witha phoenixtail featherfor their batons centre.
You see Harry Potter was a wizard and a bloody good one for that matter he was the only one to have survived countless occassions with the greatest Dark Lord of the century; Lord Voldermort who had tried to kill Harry from when he was just one year,His mother's sacrifice not only saved him, but somehow gave him the power to send the curse that would have killed the baby right back at Voldermot and since then he had survived theVoldermort3 more times making it4 times in all.
This had earned him numerous titles
The-boy-who-Lived
But then thinking about Voldermort had caused him to start thinking of the past year and especially in the grave yard, Voldermort being reborn, Cedric's death, and the pain of seeing his parentsagainduring PriorIncantenum.
"Thats it" he thought "From now onI'm going to take control of my life,I'm not going to let anyone else have to go through the pain that Voldermort has caused me, I'm going to make sure thatI destroy Voldermort and restore peace back to the wizarding world" he vowed. "I'm going to start from now andget myself intoshape".
He got up and climbed down fromhis window into the side walk on Privet Drive, He started to jog and after 10 minutes, decided to take a longer routeback home, not knowing that his decision that morning would change his life forever.
As he rounded a corner, He came face to face withsomeone in black robes anda whitefreakymask. If an average person had walked in he would have been surprised that as soon as they met they both drew up sticks and pointed it at each other.
The "someone" then decided to taunt theboy
"Hello icy wickle potter have you come to kwill me with your little wand", the Dark Lord shall honour me for killing his little enemy
Harry then decided thatif he was going to die he might as well go down fighting,
"Yeah I bet Voldermort is too much of a chicken to fight me himself that's probably why he sent you".He shouted.
"YOUSHALL SPEAK OF THEDARK LORD WITH RESPECT OR FACE THE CONSEQUENCES" the personscreamed.
"Hmmmsince when has theVoldermort ever deserved my respect?" he asked"was it the time when he killed my parents, or when he tried to possess my best friends or even still when he forcefully took my blood for his rebirth?
"Shut your mouth you idiotic boy, enoughtalk, Crucio"
The spell hit Harry before he could fanthom what to do. He writhed in pain for a minutes before the spell was lifted.
The person walked closer and lifted their mask off revealing, a woman with long black hair and bags under her brown eyes, her face was gaunt and she looked like she just walked out of hell.
"Bellatrix Lestrange" he thought he had seen enough pictures of her when Sirius escaped from Azkaban for him not to know her.
"Bella" he whispered "didn't your mother teach you not to pick on little kids, I'm shocked" he mocked
"You should know that I don't takekindly to insults, but I can assure you after your death myMaster shall reign supreme and not even that old coot Dumbledore can stop him" she replied"Any way your friends shall suffer the same fate as you,Bye Bye isy wickle potter see you in the after life" shemocked
She pointed her wand at him and shouted
"Avada Kedavra"
Harry felt the spell heading for him and at the same time he saw an old man walk out and congure a rock to replace him at the same time pulling him towards him (the old man), the old man wasted no time in banishing Bella into the bushes before leading him into a mysterious portal.
