Oh well I guess I'll just have to ask her when school comes back or when she contacts me (hint, hint, wink, wink, nudge, nudge, shove, shove).

Harry Potter and the Legend of the Sorcerers

Chapter 3

"My advice to those who are about to begin, in earnest, the journey of life, is to take their heart in one hand and a club in the other." - Josh Billings

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein

"There ain't no answer. There ain't gonna be any answer. Ther never has been an answer. That's the answer." - Gertrude Stein

"The word 'good' has many meanings. For exampe, if a man were to shoot his grandmother at a range of five hundred yards, I should cal him a good shot, but not necessarily a good man." - G. K. Chesterton.

"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored." - Aldous Huxley

Knock. Come on all you have to do is knock. It's not that hard. Lift your hand up and pound it on the door. Come on you chicken.

Alright so he might be a chicken but he had a good reason.

Really he did.

The door to the Li Clan mansion was HUGE! Maybe imposing was a better word but the door was at least more than twice his size. Guess that Billy wasn't kidding when he said that this Clan was the most powerful in Clan in Asia.

"Well aren't you going to knock?"

He jumped and a giggle – a child's giggle – was heard behind him. When he wheeled around there were four kids behind him. What was strange was they were all exactly alike. Must be quadruplets. While he was observing them the apparent leader was getting impatient.

"Well aren't you?" she asked, all the while tapping her foot. Still in a state of shock, Remus made no attempt to lift his hand. She glided past him and pushed open the door. The others filed past him, still giggling, and the smallest and last in line took pity on him.

A gentle tap on the shoulder alerted Remus that he was making a fool of himself. He finally noticed the girls had swept past him and he hurried to catch up.

Xiu grinned at her sisters when the man caught up with them. It wasn't an unusual sight to see foreigners outside their gate. Many like this man were frozen by the shear mass of the gate but it had come in handy in past sieges. Most of the visitors were simply tourists wandering the city and always seemed to find themselves there. This man however did not appear to be a tourist. For one he didn't look like he had more than a dollar to his name. His aura also had a distinct feel of a wolf; it also showed that he was aware of his magic.

One could tell by an aura almost everything about that person. Their power levels were determined by how big it was. Their mood, whether they use their magic regularly, how they use their magic, and their personality. This man used his magic regularly, if that glow had anything to say, and while he was only about half as powerful as her mother, he had potential.

Needless to say she and her sisters were curious about this foreigner. It was only sheer luck that they could communicate with him. English and Japanese were taught to all of the younger Clan members: English because of its worldwide use and Japanese because of the population of the Japanese magical community. Chuan used English, merely hoping that he would speak it.

"What's your story?" she asked him, aware of the three listening ears in front of her.

"Pardon?" replied the man.

"Why are you here?" Apparently this man was unable to string more than a couple sentences together. "I mean, normally the only visitors we have are tourists and they don't really have business here, they just stand around and stare and occasionally take photos. You really don't look like that."

"Oh. Sorry. My name is Remus Lupin. Recently I received a letter from my friend in the Quileute tribe about a child this Clan adopted. One of my friend's child was just recently placed with his brother-in-law and the description matched so I thought I should see of the child was the same," the newly dubbed Remus said.

"You're a werewolf!" Nuo exclaimed excitedly.

From the wince that Remus tried to hide it was apparent that where he came from werewolves weren't a good thing. However Nuo wasn't done.

"That's so cool," she gushed. "I've always wanted to meet a real werewolf. Were you born one? Have your senses increased? You are a werewolf, right? I just assumed because the Quileute tribe doesn't really have that many close human friends they would deliver our messages to. How do you know them? What's your favourite colour? How…"

"Peace Nuo," a clam voice said, interrupting Nuo rambling. The four recognized that voice and turned to greet their mother.

"Hi mother," all said at once.

Remus however was met with the sight of one of the most regal women he'd ever met (it was a tie between her and Professor McGonagall.) Long black hair cascaded down her back, only to be trapped in a hair tie. Midnight Blue eyes seemed to stare through his very soul. A shiver ran down his spine. This woman, elegant and graceful, was powerful. Extremely Powerful.

"Welcome to our home, Remus Lupin." Smooth like velvet, her voice washed over him. "I am Yelan Li, the leader of this Clan. These are my daughters Hui, Nuo, Chuan, and Xiu. I understand that you might have information about the newest member of our family?"

He was flustered. This woman was powerful, beautiful, and had a weird affect on his magic. It was making him all fuzzy and he felt like he was in fourth year and had that crush on their DADA teacher. Trying to rid himself of this feeling, he shook his head and answered, "Well I'm not sure if it is the same picture but I brought a picture of my friend's son."

Yelan took the picture that he offered after fishing it out from his pocket. It was moving but that didn't surprise her. These European magical communities did weird things. In her opinion they were backwards and barbaric in all ways of living. The photograph showed a man with stylishly messy hair with amber eyes and a woman with strikingly red hair and kind emerald green eyes. They were the same eyes that the baby nestled safely in the woman's arms and Guan both possessed. The babe in the picture also had the same curly hair. The only thing that was missing was the scar and she had a feeling there was a reason for that. There was no doubt about it, this was Guan.

"Yes that's him. If you'll forgive me for asking this Mr. Lupin, why exactly are you here instead of his parents?" Yelan queried.

Remus flinched like a physical blow had hit him. Of course she would ask about his parents but that didn't make it any less painful. Why oh why had Padfoot… Never mind thinking about it.

"They're dead," he said flatly. "That's the reason he has that scar on his forehead. He got that when from the person that murdered his parents."

Yelan frowned. "I think it'd be best if you came in and explained this. It sounds like a long story. It also looks like you want to see him. Am I right?"

"Yes," Remus acknowledged. With a swish of her clothes (very reminiscent of a one Severus Snape) Yelan lead the way past traditional structures galore. Finally they reached the largest and furthest back house – mansion actually – and Yelan slid the door open. On the couch sat a young boy with fierce amber eyes still in the wraps of childhood. A bundle was quietly sitting on his lap and Remus felt himself nearly faint.

Harry.

He was safe. Thank God, Merlin, and whatever divine power was out there. Relief encircled him like a warm blanket and he felt his muscles relax for the first time in who knows how long.

Moving on autopilot, Remus moved across the room and carefully sat down next to the boy. The boy stared at him, as if assessing the threat level. Then he relaxed and offered the tiny bundle to Remus. He seemed aware of this strange man's emotions, though that could be because Remus wore his feelings on his sleeve.

Remus was aware of his shaking hands but he couldn't get them to stop. He gentled took the baby and brought him up to cradle next to his chest.

"Oh Harry," he murmured. Water splashed on to the cheek of the sleeping child and Remus belatedly realized that he was crying. "I'm so sorry. I couldn't protect and anything could have happened. You could have grown up in the ghettos and I would never have seen you again."

He couldn't stop the tears. They kept flowing, not heeding his commands. Handing back Harry, Remus tried to fight a losing battle against the onslaught of fresh tears. "I'm sorry," he said to the six silent watchers. "I wanted to take Harry in myself after his parents died but the laws put forth by the Ministry of Magic say quite clearly that a werewolf cannot raise children."

Xiu was much more aware of emotions than her sisters. She could actually feel the waves of sadness and bitterness. Without a second thought she crossed over the room, sat down on the other side of the crying man and put and arm around his shoulder. Her sisters soon followed: Chuan and Hui behind him, Nuo taking Xiao Lang's spot when he moved to give Harry to his mother. Xiao Lang then ran back to join Hui and Chuan behind the couch.

Yelan stared at this sight with amusement. It had taken a record breaking two minutes for this man to win over all her children. This had never happened before in her lifetime. She was starting to like this man.

Finally his tears subsided and the children withdrew a little. Nuo and Xiu still held on but Chuan, Xiao Lang, and Hui joined her on the couch stationed opposite.

"What is his name?" Piped up Xiao Lang. "I mean he wasn't always called Guan. It was the name we gave him."

"Guan?" Remus mused.

"It means 'light'," supplied Xiu helpfully.

"It fits," Remus complemented. "His name was originally Harry James Potter. He was born to Lily Potter, nee Evans, and James Potter. We were all apart of the Wizarding community in England. You are aware of the Wizarding World right?"

A nod of the head answered that question and he continued, "I went to school with both. In our first year James, I, and two other boys formed a group called 'The Marauders' and we were friends ever since. Unfortunately at that time an evil wizard was gathering followers. He went by the name Lord Voldemort and was kind of like the Wizarding World version of Hitler. For some reason he despised those that were not pureblooded wizards and witches and decided to kill off the rest. A group was formed by the headmaster of our school after it was established that the ministry wasn't enough to combat the threat.

It was called 'The Order of the Phoenix' in honor of Headmaster Dumbledore's bonded phoenix Fawkes. Me and the other four signed up as soon as we could. It's said that Dumbledore was the only one that Voldemort was afraid of, though nobody knew the reason for it. So we started fighting the Death Eaters (Voldemort's minions) and making a difference. I'm afraid that because of those battles we got some unwanted attention. James and Lily had fought against Voldemort himself on three separate occasions and were still alive. They went into hiding around August, right after Harry was born.

It was quiet for the next three months until All Hallow's Eve. I didn't find out until the morning after but one of my friends and fellow Marauders, Sirius Black, had sold them out and killed the another Marauder, Peter Pettigrew. Voldemort killed Lily and James but for a reason nobody knows he wasn't able to kill Harry. Harry is actually a celebrity right now because he defeated Voldemort.

After that night Dumbledore insisted Harry go to Lily's non-magical sister Petunia Dursley. Apparently the Dursleys decided they didn't want Harry and tried to dump him here. Thank Merlin that you rescued him and the Quileute informed me otherwise I might never have been able to see him again. I just hope you raise him well and inform him of his parents and their sacrifice."

By the time Remus had finished speaking Yelan and her children had already made the decision.

"That won't be necessary, Mr. Lupin. It is apparent that you are need of a good home just as much as Guan is. Therefore you shall hence forth be under the protection of the Li Clan and a honouary uncle to young Guan Li. Xiu, why don't you show Mr. Lupin his new room? Since all the guests we receive are usually housed in other buildings just place him there."

A wave of magic washed over Remus after Yelan inducted him into the Clan and he immediately started to refuse.

"Oh no I couldn't. You don't even know me. I can't take advantage of you and your hospitality like this."

"Mr. Lupin," Yelan started with amusement. "Do you think that the Li Clan allows people to take advantage of us? Besides, my children are a very good judge of character and you won them over in two minutes without even trying. You do want to be involved in Guan's life, don't you?"

"Yes but…"

"Good. Xiu, if you would?"

And not giving him any more time to refuse Xiu pushed Remus down the hallway and out of sight. Yelan then allowed herself a self-satisfied smile.

Alright there you go. Finally its done! A whole five pages. That's like the second largest thing I've written for something not school.

Okay guys I NEED HELP! What should I do about Sirius? Should I have him come in now or later or not even really include him (I would like in here but I do like Remus better than Sirius)? Also what house should Harry be in when he goes to Hogwarts. I myself am leaning towards Hufflepuff. I just like the Puffs and because Harry grew up with a loving family and so he would be hard working (Li Clan here peoplees) and loyal (thanks to growing up with family very loyal to those he loves). Please give me imput! Imput on pairings would be nice too. I really don't want to do HarryXHermione or HarryXGinny. I don't have anything against them but I don't really like the pairing. Or should I even have a pairing in their for Harry?

Please review! I need everyone's imput on how you like this chapter!

Your loyal author,

Kasumi
