AN: This is my first attempt at writing fan fiction. The idea for this story popped into my head while at work and I decided to write it down because I couldn't quit thinking about it. Please read and review. And criticism is welcome, but please do not flame me, as it wouldn't be nice. I currently do not have a beta, and if you would like to beta for me just let me know.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Supernatural. Any characters or scenes that you recognize are the property of JK Rowling and Eric Kripke.
Warnings: This is an AU/ Nonmagic fic. The main pairing will eventually be Harry/Dean which means it will be slash. If you don't like it, don't read it. But don't flame me for writing it that way.
Chapter 1: And So It Began
Harry James Potter was born on July 31, 1983, in Aurora, Nebraska, to James and Lily Potter. When Harry was sixth months old, his life was changed forever.
While asleep in the room she and James shared, Lily was awakened by odd sounds emitting from the baby monitor beside the bed. After rousing her husband, the two went to Harry's nursery to see what was wrong. Immediately after opening the door they see a man standing over their child. Lily screamed and attempted to run to a phone, but was thrown into the wall by an invisible force. Upon seeing what was happening to his wife, James charged the man. In a matter of seconds, both Lily and James were pinned to the ceiling, watching as the stranger dripped his blood into their baby's mouth. The last thing young Harry saw before the fire started was a pair of glowing yellow eyes.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
William and Ellen Harvelle were disturbed from their sleep when the police scanner in their room was activated. After listening to the report of a mysterious house fire, Bill quickly dressed and left to investigate. He climbed into his 1970 Elcamino and made the hour long drive from Kearney to Aurora. Upon his arrival, he saw the police and fire crews working to secure both the fire and the interested crowd. He quickly approached the local police, stating that he was with the state sheriffs office, and that he had been dispatched to investigate the site. The locals informed him that the fire started in the baby's nursery and that only one person in the small family survived the blaze. The child had already been transported to the hospital, and Bill left to gather any evidence that might have been left on the child. During his trip to Memorial Hospital he called Ellen to inform her of what had happened and that a six month old baby was now orphaned.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
A few days later, Ellen was found sitting in the ICU besides Harry's bed. After many long hours of searching, the police were unable to discover any living relatives for Harry, and so he was soon to be placed in an orphanage. Once Bill had heard this, he and Ellen decided that they would adopt the child, as they had been trying for months to give their daughter, Jo, a sibling and had been unsuccessful in their attempts. A few days and a mountain of paperwork later, and the newly dubbed Harry Harvelle was taken to Kearney to begin his new life.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
For the first few months after taking Harry home, Bill refrained from going on any hunts. He spent his days working in the Roadhouse he and Ellen owned, and his nights helping Ellen with the babies. At night while Ellen, Harry, and Jo would be asleep, Bill would spend his time searching for any cases that were similar to what happened to Harry's birth parents. He knew that something supernatural had caused that fire, and he was determined to find out what it was. After all of his research he was able to discover two open mysterious fire cases that matched the description within the past year. The first was in Lawrence, Kansas, and had occurred 3 months before Harry's fire. The second, in Dacono, Colorado, had occurred 7 and a half months prior to the Kansas fire. Two weeks before Harry would turn one, Bill had enough information to begin his investigation.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Bill spent the 5 hour drive from Kearney to Lawrence planning the story he would weave to gather the information he needed from the neighbors and friends of the Winchester family. He had gathered from the newspaper articles that father, John Winchester, had survived the blaze, along with his two children. Upon his arrival in Lawrence he went to the garage that John had co-owned with Mike Guenther. He tells Mike that he is with the FBI and that he is investigating a rash of mysterious house fires with the tri-state area. Mike informs him that John and his sons had stayed with Mike and his wife for a few months, during which he visited every psychic in town. After and extensive search of the local phone book, Bill visited every psychic to question them about what was said during their chats with Mr. Winchester. The most cooperative one, Missouri Mosley, informed him that she told John about what was out in there, and that he was determined to hunt down the thing that killed his wife. She told Bill that she new the real reason he was there and that the demon responsible for the deaths was currently off the grid and no one was currently able to find him. Bill left soon after to head to Dacono, Colorado, to find the second family.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The drive to Dacono took eight and a half hours, during which Bill called Ellen to check in on their kids. He had spent 2 days in Lawrence and he was missing his children. He was hoping to find the Granger family to get some first hand information on what had occurred the night of the fire, so he could return home in time for Harry's birthday. Once Bill arrived in Dacono he purchased a motel room with the plan of finding the Grangers the next morning. When he awoke the following morning he discovered that the Grangers had remained in town following the incident, and that both parents had survived the incident, while their eldest child had perished in the blaze. He drove to the Grangers new address, and requested a meeting with them. He told them that he was with the FBI, and then he needed more information about the night their son had died. They told him that when they heard the commotion in the nursery they ran to investigate and they found their son pinned to the ceiling just before he burst into flames. At this point Mrs. Granger broke into tears, and Bill was asked to leave.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
A few years after the death of Mary Winchester, John arrived at the Roadhouse. He and Bill spent hours comparing notes in order to find the Demon who had torn so many families apart. In April of 1986, a week after Jo had turned four, John and Bill went on a hunt together to gather information on the whereabouts of the yellow-eyed demon. While making a devil's trap at Devil's Gate Reservoir, John accidentally scuffed the sat line and a hellspawn attempted to possess Bill. Bill begged for John to end it before the hellspawn could take control, and John complied to save his friend from suffering. He returned to the Roadhouse and informed Ellen of what had happened. After he had finished, John left and didn't return.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
AN: And there it is. I know it is heavy on the description and conversations are non-existent yet, but that will change once I get to Harry going to college and meeting Sam. I have changed the birth dates of Harry and Hermione to make them fit better into the story, but Hermione won't be showing up for a while. Again, I ask for reviews and your criticism is welcome, if it is constructed towards making this story better. Flaming will get you no where. Thanks.
