A.N.: Okay there are a few things I forgot in the last chapter.

I will be trying to post at least once a week if not more. It depends on my muse and my beta reader the lovely Mabilen. Thank you so much by the way you are a life savor.

If you review I will be getting back to you I love reviews and try to answer all questions or critiques. If something is not clear in a chapter let me know and I will try to clear it up. So R&R

I will be posting a poll for parings (not the main and if favorable to the ideas I will right side one-shots)

Disclaimer: cause I so forgot. I own nothing if I did there would be waaayyy more same sex parings and I would be partying like a rock star. So I am just playing with these characters.

On with the show

Chapter 1

The women was completely ordinary in every way she reflected the outside environment in every way. Hair pulled back into a strict bun that would make McGonagall jealous even the makeup did little to make her stand out. Her scrubs were the standard light blue and the slight scent of cats wafted from the house. She glared as though he had offended her in some way never mind that they had never met before right now.

Harry took a step back to check that he walked up to the right house. "Err, hello" he tried "um I'm here to see ? She still lives here right?" he knew something was up now.

"Who the hell are you" she snapped "Never mind, what do you want"

"I'm here to see Ms. Figg she asked me to come by today" he tried.

"You're her son why didn't you just say that she's been waiting on you. Well get inside before you let one of those little monsters out of the house. "Umm why do you think that?" he asked as he stepped into the house past her.

"Family is the only one crazy enough to visit the old bat." She hissed.

He glared back at her "I would watch how you speak of my mother she may be older but she is still my mother." The women muttered to herself as she headed back to the back of the house.

"Harry oh just look at you" cooed Ms. Figg " You grew up into a handsome young man and look you even got fashionable after you got out from that horrid house."

Harry blushed and looked down at himself black slacks and emerald green button up both that hugged in all the right places. A black duster jacket with silver chains accenting the buttons. Black combat boots finished off the ensemble and he was going to curse Draco the next time he saw him he looked like the muggle version of a punk slytherin his earring was a snake for crying out loud. 'Note to self stop hanging with the slytherins .'He thought out loud he just said thanks with a faint blush. She looked over his shoulder "Margret you can go."

"Its Maggie"

"Oh right Midge you can go"

"Maggie and no I can't leave you here alone"

"But my sons here so you can go"

"Look I can stay in the front of the house but I cannot leave you in this house without a nurse here." The woman was slowly starting to lose what little regain on her temper that she had.

"That's fine" Harry interrupted before it could get out of control. He had a feeling that this was an old argument one these two women had often.

Maggie spun on her heal and stormed out of the bedroom. "Now mother why is that oh so lovely women here? He snarked.

"Harry dear you might want to sit down," She soothed "Muggles here to take care of me I am not expecting to be around all that much longer." Harry sat down in shock and took a good look at this woman, his mother of his heart. She was thinner than he had ever seen, there where medications along the bedside table, she was pale and fragile looking. She had always been a small woman and had been older even when he had been a child but now she looked to be on the edge of collapse as though she was fading into deaths embrace. His head shot up to look around the room and there in the corner was the one person he hated seeing around his loved ones, the beautiful Hel. Half her face a porcelain doll the other a porcelain mask hiding the horror behind it.

He looked right at her "I need a few hours to speak with her please" he never bargained for time from death before but she inclined her head in acceptance and faded back into the shadows he turned his attion back to Ms. Figg.

The sad smile she gave him told him she knew exactly what he was speaking of as he talked to a seemingly empty corner of the room."Don't be sad baby I have had a good long life, filled with adventure and love. Sit down I know we don't have much time and there is something I need to tell you it is the greatest story I know a tale of love and loss. It is a tale of heart break and acceptance it is my legacy and now yours my child."

Confusion overtook harry he knew she need to tell him something but he has heard all the stories of her past before she had never kept them from him. "Mom you have told me of your past before I have heard this I don't understand what you're saying" He tried to reason with her.

"Oh baby I lied and I will always regret that I was not allowed to tell you the truth and that I am another person you trusted and broke that. Please sit I need to tell you this it is the story of my past. My life before I became Arebella Figg and the greatest man I ever meet and we don't have much time." the sad smile she sent him melted any anger he had felt about being lied to. He pulled up a seat next to her bed.

"Ok, I'm ready "he said

She smiled "My story starts in a little town house in London on the edge of the city. The day Harrison and Amanda Carter adopted a small eleven year old squib and brought her into a new home, life and a new name."
