Dearest
Note: I'll skip the meeting between Harry and Death. And Death with Fate. If I write it down then it will be an extra not an actual chapter.

Chapter 1
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed tiredly.
At the moment he feels old, despite not hitting his prime yet. Why?
An abrupt report came to his office – saying they found a child, a boy to be particular. Not just any boy, he was anomaly, compared to the other children. One of the reasons is his exotic features particularly his eyes, an enthralling green. It was the first time he ever saw eyes that green in the entire elemental nations. Rumors were spread by those who have seen the boy as being the last of the lost civilization; which could very well be truth as there are no records of him in the village.
But, what truly caught his attention is the lack of chakra, which shouldn't be possible as without it – he was as good as dead. And yet, the boy just loved proving the law of the universe wrong as he still lives despite his badly shape; much to his bewilderment and surprised.
He immediately released an order for the boy's existence to be an S-rank secret because if the others got a gist of the child they wouldn't hesitate to use him for their own purpose. So, the only people who were aware of the child are his students and the trusted shinobi under his command. He hadn't told anything about the boy to his advisor and former team mate Shimura Danzo. Especially his relationship with the elder became strained upon suspicion of the latter's motive lately.
But, Hiruzen was the Kage, he has a responsibility to uphold to his village.
Before he rose to the top, he was once and always would be a shinobi; Because, one of a shinobi's many instilled traits is paranoia, which he still has even though he retired from active duty.
Therefore, no matter how much it pained him; he had to know everything he could about the boy's life. Even if it meant ignoring his privacy and destroying his trust. Konohagakure can't show mercy to anyone, at the moment, even if it's a supposedly harmless child.
The boy may hate him; that's fine.
After all, he was only a leader doing his duty to ensure his people's safety. Even if it meant he has to endure the memory of brilliant green eyes staring at his own; broken and filled with an entire lifes worth of so much hatred for life and even death. He will never forget as he condemned the child to so much misery, under false assumptions.
