Disclaimer for this chapter and the last as I forgot all rights and credits go to JK Rowling I own nothing
As the years went by Harry's once vibrant green eyes became cold with sharp edges to them depicting Harry's hardships as an unwanted child, however within those eyes there was something so powerful so alluring as the swirling emeralds drew you in as if they were gazing into your very soul. For harry these years were next to hell but something caused him to have meaning causing him to gleam with intelligence as he found the Potter library as he scoured through all the books learning at incredible rates as two unnoticed portraits watched the six year old go through mountains of books with unnerving pace and intellect.
The portraits were the late Lord and Lady Potter Charlus Potter and Dorea Potter Nee Black the Late parents of James Charlus Potter. The two portraits watched silently as the Potter Heir read through book after book ready to interrupt the child Dorea called "Child why are you reading all of these books?" as she stared comfortingly at the Child "because I want Mummy and Daddy to pay attention to me" was the innocent and bitter reply to the inquiry leaving the portraits stunned asking themselves how did their son not pay attention to this endearing young man.
"Why don't your parents pay attention to you child" was the soft reply of Dorea to which the child answered "Because they don't have time for me they have time for my brother though" was the heart breaking reply from the child "Child what is your name" asked Dorea "Harry… Harry James Potter" was his childish reply "Well child I'm your grandmother Dorea Potter Nee Black and that man grouching in the portrait behind you is your grandfather Charlus Potter merlin knows if James ever speaks of us."
"I didn't know about you" replied Harry shyly "well now you do" said Dorea with a warm smile" "Harry what books are you reading" inquired Dorea "I was reading a story book about these three brothers who conquered death and each gained a magical item. One brother got a wand that was unbeatable the other brother got a stone which would enable him to see his lost loved ones and the last got a cloak that could make him invisible" cried little Harry childishly as he started giggling uncontrollably "what was the other book you were reading?" asked Dorea kindly "that book was an Occlumency book for beginners" replied Harry scratching his head
"Why are you reading that?" inquired Dorea "Because I overheard Dumbledore saying he'd have to teach Jack when he was older and I wanted to know what it was" replied Harry cautiously "Did you understand what you read in the book Harry" asked Dorea to which Harry bobbled his head side to side to childishly "well then Harry come here and I'll help explain" said Dorea kindly
After hours of Practicing occlumency with Dorea Harry was left tired and hungry because he missed Lunch so Harry went down to the kitchens where the majority of the house elves resided. After knocking on a wooden door Harry walked inside to be bombarded by the elves calling "young master Harry" joyfully however one House elf came up to him and asked "How can Daisy be serving you's young master Harry" to which Harry replied "umm Daisy can I have a few sandwiches" asked Harry as his tummy rumbled which he tried to cover up in embarrassment. "Daisy can be doing that for you" cried the over excited house elf and went off to get the requested food for the young master Harry. Within a few minutes Harry was sitting in the library next to the portrait of Dorea Potter after profusely thanking Daisy for the sandwiches Harry and Dorea continued with their occlumency lesson until it was nearing 6 o'clock when Harry said "goodnight Grandma I'll see you tomorrow" as he skipped away leaving Dorea staring at the little boy as he skipped away with affection clearly in her eyes.
AN
I know this is a very short chapter but this was just a chapter explaining for the future why Harry will be so intelligent and powerful when he gets to Hogwarts because I didn't want Harry to be inexplicably strong without good reasons.
Thank you everyone for reading, viewing, favouriting, following and reviewing because it motivates and encourages me to put up more chapters and start working on posting them faster than the week between new chapters I was originally going to do. So again thank you everyone!
