This will be a SS/HP/LV slash and sort of odd, takes place right before Harry's sixth year. I own nothing all rights are JKR's.
Chapter Three: Departure
The next morning Harry awoke and was down stairs with his shrunken trunk in his pocket at five in the morning. He had been told to be in the Great Hall at seven but he wanted to get there and just sit and talk to his friends before his hell began. Sali was informing him that the venom he had released in the teen was mixing with the venom left over from the Basilisk and that it was vastly improving Harry. Fawkes just kept laughing and commenting on how Harry should be careful or else Sali would have him wanting to be a snake very soon.
This ended up with the Phoenix and snake having a hissy fit over which house Harry truly belonged in. The teen sighed and opened his Charms book to begin his summer homework. By six he had his Charms essay half written and was drinking tea when the professors began to show up. The house elf Galba stood holding up a book that she was explaining to Harry.
"This book be good for Master Harry, teaches him all about the charms he needed to learn," Galba said smiling when Harry took the book. This house elf was not a school house elf; this was one of the Potter house elves, "Master Harry is coming home now? Galba would like to be with her Master this summer."
"Not this summer," Harry informed as he looked over the book, "I am spending the summer at my Professor's house," opening the book he realized it was a book completely about the double edged charms exactly what his essay was about, "Galba where did you find this book?"
"In big study in second building, was Master Harry's Great Granddaddies study,' Galba said happily, "Pretty bird tell Galba that her Master need books on many things so Master can do homework."
"Thank you Galba," Harry said before turning to look at Fawkes who was looking up and to the left, "You crazy Phoenix, I can find my own books," the teachers watched as Fawkes trilled at Harry and the teen looked like the bird had smacked him, "I am not incompetent," a hissing to the side of the teen made Harry drop his head to the book on the table and sigh, "Some friends you guys are."
"Harry my boy," Albus said as he walked over and sat across from the teen, "Do you understand what Fawkes says to you?"
Harry jerked up and back, before saying, "Of course not Sir, I only speak English and Parsletongue, I have no idea what language a Phoenix even speaks." He did not catch the smirk aimed his way by the Potion Master but simply chuckled at the Headmaster's confused look, "Sali, the snake at my side translated for me."
"Oh that makes so much sense," Albus said before chuckling and glancing at the parchment in front of Harry, "You've started your homework already? My dear boy, please tell me you intend to do something besides study all summer."
"I intend to do something besides study all summer," Harry repeated which had the Professors who were listening in break into snickers at his sudden attitude change. They all wondered how such an intelligent, quick witted boy ended up in the dimwits' house.
"That's good, you are young and need to have fun while you can," Albus said before standing up and walking away talking to himself about gumballs, boards and where he left his right sock, which made Harry blink after him thinking one thing, 'He's crazy.'
Severus watched the teen wondering why the teen had arrived in the Great Hall early. He had told the teen seven and there he was working on his homework. When he had a half sarcastic conversation with the Headmaster he felt a chill creep through him and he could only think one thing, 'That was a hell of a lot like a Slytherin, what is he playing at?'
Walking down he looked down at the teen who was writing something, pausing, then writing again he realized that the snake was hissing the right phrasing at him, "Using your pets to cheat?" he sneered, which made Harry look up at him blankly, "Since you're early we'll leave now," and with that he left the room listening to the teen hurry as fast as he could to gather his stuff and catch up.
