HARRY POTTER: THE POTIONS MASTER
I do not own Harry Potter or any thing that is form the books and any thing that another fan-fiction writer did is owned by the first to use it and I thank all of the authors out there for their work and any ideas that I might use.
A/N: This is late because I had to use the restart disc on both of my laptops and lost every thing. The main one had a crash right as I was going to save to disk.
This is an Alternate Universe and the things that I will put in to this story will be what are different. If it is not shown then it is from the books or movies and not changed.
Snape was a bully when Lily meet him as a child he is mainly the reason that her sister dislikes magic. I feel that Lily and his friendship would have ended any way for she would have seen what he did to others at some point.
I will not be doing the accents for people like Hagrid or Fleur for I know that I cannot write the way they talk also this way it is easier for you the reader to read what they say.
Chapter 4: The Sorting and the School year starts
As Harry and his friends step out of the cabin Draco returns and starts in again "Potter my father will see you expelled for what you did to me!"
"Who are you?" Asks Harry
"I AM DRACO MALOFY!" shouts the blond ponce.
"Who cares, you are an ill mannered, inbreed, fool and the only reason no one has killed you is it would take a lot of paper work to clear up the mess. You are nothing to me for I am of The Twelve and you are not!" states Harry in a very low and frosty voice has he turns and walks away with Hermione and Neville follows him.
"If you pull that wand Malofy then when you are sorted your house will have negative points and you a week's detention." said Tonks who has a prefect's badge.
Has they walk away Hermione asks Harry "What are the twelve?"
"The Twelve are the first leaders of the wizarding world here in Britain. They where the clans that had the most power politically and otherwise three each from England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales they help make the ministry. There are laws that can not be removed from the books by the MoM or they lose the powers they have my father is the head of the last Walsh clan and the Malofy's are from France and came over with William the Conqueror." answers Harry
Has they get off of the train a red headed boy comes over ad starts talking "That was great mate what you did to Malfoy. You will be even more famous. My name is Ron Weasley." says the boy.
"First I am not your mate we just meet and we do not know each other that well also I have this to say about fame. Fame? It's an empty purse, count it, you are broke. Eat it, go hungry. Seek it and go mad. So way would I wish to have fame?" States Harry "We may become friends but only if you prove you are not my friend for any other reason than to be the friend of you classmate and not for what is said I did or my parents you are my friend because you wish to be friends with Harry and not Harry Potter of the famous Potter family." Has he walks toward Hagrid who is calling the first years over to him and tells them to have only four to a boat. "Hagrid my dad and the others say hi." Harry tells Hagrid who says this "When you write them tell I say hi back and ask them and your mum to try and visit me some time."
"Will do and it is good seeing you again." says Harry has he climbs in to a boat along with Neville, Hermone and Ron who has a thoughtful look on his face.
Has they cross the threshold of the wards for Hogwarts Harry feels them and knows that he will need to restore the founder wards. At that same time the headmaster feels the wards bond with some one else, even if he can still feel them he knows that the person has more control over them than he or any one else does, for new ones seem to be coming on and they feel old, older than he is. And two ghosts look at each other and smile for they know that the heir has come.
"Harry are you ok?" whispers Hermione "Yes, I am ok just thinking of my brother and sister miss them." he states but he mouths "I tell you later" and at that moment Hogwarts comes in to view.
Hagrid hands the first years over to Professor McGonagall and she tells them they are to wait for her to return to lead them out. After she leaves the school ghosts arrive {see the first book} but two of the ghosts look at Harry and nod at him just has McGonagall returns. She leads them in to the Great Hall and has the stand has she sets up the hat that sorts the first years. The first words the hat says has it starts to sing are this.
"The Lord and Heir of Hogwarts has come he will restore the dream of The Founders Four and help bring a new and better world of magic. Where what one does is better than ones blood and we will have peace until the end of time! Long Live the Lord of Hogwarts. True Heir to the Founders of Hogwarts let all know he will write the truth of The Founders and undo the evil that was done!"
[The rest of the sorting and feast was the same has the first book] The teachers and upper years that did not know about Harry's link look around shocked and Quirrell looks very scared as Voldemort is now very angry for he thinks he is the true heir of Salazar Slytherin.
After the warning about the third floor Harry says to Hermione and Neville "Why tell us that if he dose not wish students or some one else to try and see way the floor is off limits?" and both say they do not know.
"Hermione what do you think about Hogwarts? Asks Neville.
"So far every thing is great and thank you and Harry for helping me not to over do trying to fit in with what I read in the books." Hermione replies.
"You're welcome." Says both of the boys as Harry asks her, "What do you think of the food? I thought it was a bit too much."
"It tasted good but it did not seem all that healthy. I hope we have more fruit for breakfast." Hermione says.
After every one was taken to the dorms and Harry was sure that his roommates where asleep he sneaks down and out using the cloak that his dad gave him [given to him by the headmaster in the books ut keep by his dad], The Marauder's Map 3.0 and his link to the school to get to the Great Seal of Hogwarts that is in the Great Hall. After he gets there using one of his daggers he cuts his fingerer and lets four drops of blood fall on the seal and says "I am the Lord of Hogwarts Heir to the Four, I awaken all that has slept, to return to your full power all that was weakened, to protect those that are sent here to learn, so none may know with the arts of the mind what one thinks, act only when a life is truly endanger, ask when you are not sure, let the rules be enforced with truth and honour, any punishments to be just and true. SO SAY I HARRY JAMES POTTER THE LORD OF HOGWARTS! SO MOTE IT BE!" has the last is said a wave of power spreads out all over the school and Harry vanishes only to reappear in his dorm bed where he hides the cloak and map under his pillow.
The teachers are all trying to find out what has happened with the Headmaster asking the hat.
"The Lord of Hogwarts has awakened the wards that The Founders themselves had placed on the school along with the checks that where in placed to stop points from being give or taken unfairly that also applies to detentions. The wards will stop any one that has no true reason from using legilimency for ore than knowing that a person is lying." replies the hat
"But how can Severus keep the Slytherins in line and keep his cover?" asks Albus Dumbledore.
"He will just have to be a better teacher and Head of House." this last came from the voice of Hogwarts that also says this "Now let the teachers get back to sleep for tomorrow is the first day and it s a Monday and they all need their sleep even you and the students need the most sleep." with that both the hat and Hogwarts stops talking.
When the sunrises that Monday morning Professor McGonagall enters the common room and calls al of the first years down she then tells them this "You will eat breakfast in the Great Hall and then the 5th to 7th years will take turns showing you around and take you to your classes the teachers will tell you what they wish you to know about there class and you will be on your best behaviour. You will not be asked any questions today for you will only be in each class for a half an hour the rest of the time before lunch you will use to get to know each other in this house has well has the other first years. You will again be on your best behaviour the prefects and teachers will keep an eye on you." When she finishes she leads the students out and to the Great Hall.
The tour is scheduled by house starting with the Head of Houses class rooms. The fifth year prefects are the first to lead and they guide them to Prof. McGonagall's class room only to find a cat sitting on the teacher's desk. Has the prefects tell them to find seats both Harry and Neville have smiles on there faces for their parents have told them what to expect and they both wish to see it first hand. Harry, Neville, and Hermione sit next to one another with Hermione looking for the teacher. Just when Ron, and Seamus Finnigan start to mess a round the cat changes and shocks all of them.
"This is first year Transfiguration and you will behave or points will be lost and detentions given. I will also send notes home to your parents." the last part said while looking at Ron. McGonagall continues speaking " In this class you will learn the basics for transfiguration witch is the changing of on thing to another just has you saw me transform from a cat. Any questions about this class?" McGonagall says.
Harry rises his hand and asks "Yes, will we be able to do extra credit work and research?" Hermione has a look of bliss at the question for that is one she would like to know too.
"Yes, to both and you may also be able to do special classes if you show talent or the control need to learn." replies McGonagall
Hermione asks this "Will we at some point cover the animage transformation?"
"Not this year but it will be covered in the seventh year but it is one thing you can do the research and theory work as an independent study. You, can also arrange for a tutor for this or any class. I tell you this so that you will know that if you need any help you an get another student or your parents may hire some one, we have had teachers that have tried to make their students think they did not have that right." has she finishes talking the sixth year prefect's arrive to lead them to the next first year class. McGonagall reminds the fist years to be on their best behaviour as she shifts into her cat form.
The visit to the classes are much the same with Snape telling the first years not in his house that independent study and extra credit will be on a case to case basis with the questions he asked Harry being asked again but to others and no points lost. And here is the reason.
"Master Snape the ICW Guild Master asked me to give this to you." said Harry has he hands him a sealed letter.
"Why would they ask you Mister Potter rather than send it?" asks Snape taking the letter and looking at the unbroken seal of the Guild of Potion Masters that bears the name of the Guild Master.
"I do not know Master Snape." states Harry has he move to sit next to Hermione.
Before Snape dose any thing else he opens the letter.
Dear, Master Snape August 27,1997
I write this to notify you that young Mister Potter has achieved the rank of potions master of the third order and is recognized by the ICW has one. The potion that he made was to help those that suffered from the illness that makes Werewolves it grants them the ability to change at will like an animagus ability but what he did not know is that it also remove over time the ability to pass on the illness. The potion that he improved is the Dreamless Sleep Potion what he did was remove the additive qualities from it. He has studied under Nicolas Flamel and his wife has an alchemist but he has only studied the basics of that. His teacher was the world renowned Grand Master Adam Price the same one that reviewed your mastery test and told you to improve upon your teaching or to only take on apprenticeships. Master Potter was the last student of Grand Master Price's before his death a week ago at the age of two hundred and ten and he was the apprentices of Master Flamel both. So please show him the respected that he has earned.
With respect and honour,
Supreme Master and Guild Head,
Rachael Hamilton
P. S. The last Potions Master Guide dated August 1st this year has all of this in it about Master Potter.
"Master Potter may I see your proof of mastery?" asks Prof. Snape with respect.
"Yes sir, you may." says Harry has he pulls out the guild medal but before he could put it away Snape asks "Please when you are in this class wear it openly or wear the badge that goes with it."
"Okay sir I will." replies Harry.
"The reason I asked these questions is to see who read ahead or has some help studying potions before they got to school. And if any one needs help ask Master Potter for he is a Master of Potions and holds the third order so please show him some respected." States Snape.
Has the students are leavening Harry walks up to Snape and says "Sir I was asked by my mum and da to tell you this fro her she says to tell you "Thank you for your help when we where younger." and from my da "You may not believe me but I am sorry for some of the things that I did but not all for some where because of things you or other did first. But I am sorry for the others." I do not know what the last is about but my da was very sad when he told me that and I over heard him tell my mum that he fells responsible for her lost friendship. Good day Master Snape." says Harry has he goes to catch-up with the others.
End of Chapter
The "Fame?" stuff is from Krull and the movie has a Harry Potter link. The same actor that plays Hagrid is in the movie but his voice is dubbed.
