A/N: Hi me again thanks for all of the reviews I would just like to mention two of my other stories you may enjoy if you haven't read them Charms, Parties and Betrayals and Harry Potter Black have a look and tell me what you think of them two.
Ryan
"How do you know he was the secret keeper?" Marie asked
"Because why else would he hide?" Ryan said "and when Lily and James' will was read to me it said so but there was no proof now there is"
"So to the ministry?" Remus asked and Ryan nodded
"Amelia Bones owes me a favour" Ryan said with a grin and the four disapperated.
Amelia Bones Office
"So what can I do for you Lord Potter?" Amelia Bones asked when Ryan, Remus and the two witches appeared at her office door.
"Just to be here in an official position head Auror" he said with a grin and opened the box to show the rat
"You have to be kidding Potter" she snorted "you want to take up my time to play with a rat"
"This isn't just any rat" Remus said pointing his wand at the rat "Animagi revealio" and the rat grew to become an older form of Peter Pettigrew with missing finger and all was quickly stunned and bound by Ryan and Marie and was standing in the office of Amelia Bones.
"Impossible" Amelia said "Dumbledore said that Black killed him"
"I remember Amelia" Ryan said looking with distain at the man "and I also remember the court case I brought forward in 1986 saying that the little bastard was the secret keeper but Fudge and Dumbledore threw it out claiming there was no proof and that Pettigrew was dead but none of them knew what we knew"
"Then Dumbledore could have known if Black denied it under oath or Veritaserum"
"He didn't have a trial" Ryan said "and therefore no chance"
"I will question Pettigrew alone and call for Mr Black to be released for trial as soon as possible"
"Thanks Amelia" Ryan said with a grin
"Just out of curiosity" Remus said as they went to leave "what did you owe him for?"
"We don't speak of it" Amelia said mysteriously
"And never will" Ryan said with laughter and that was all that was said on the matter before they left.
Harry
When Harry got off of the train there was a few members of staff waiting for him, first was a giant of a man well half giant at least, Harry guessed that he was Hagrid as Ryan had given information on all of the staff and order members he could remember.
Severus Snape was easily recognisable by the way he was berating Gryffindors when they got off of the train even though he did welcome back the Slytherins including Daphne and Blaise yet he seemed to ignore Harry who figured the potions professor was either worried Ryan would turn up or wanted nothing to do with Harry.
Then there was Alastor Moody even though it didn't seem like the Moody Harry had met before through Ryan as this one was not even smirking like Moody normally was even though Harry hadn't seen the older wizard since he had taken a job at Hogwarts two years before there was no way that Albus Dumbledore could change someone that much that was something to tell Ryan.
Standing next to Moody and as far away from Snape as possible was Minerva McGonagall, Ryan had said that she should be fair with him as she had been with him 20 years prior but he also said he didn't know how much 20 years working for Albus Dumbledore would change someone.
Speaking of the man himself he looked both hesitant and excited to have Harry at Hogwarts, Harry guessed it was because Dumbledore would have gotten the majority of the abuse when Harry disappeared which of course he had done both wizarding families and the ministry had blamed Dumbledore, families like the Bones' and the Longbottom' for not protecting the child and families like the Weasleys who hoped to cash in on being close to Harry.
"Harry" Albus said "it is nice to see you have finally come to Hogwarts" Harry then felt two Legimancy attacks he guessed that they were from Snape and Dumbledore and pushed them out of his mind quickly before they could see anything.
"I am glad to be here professor" Harry said trying to pull of the nervous and humble student routine that Albus fell for hook, line and sinker which made Blaise and Daphne have to try tremendously not to laugh at as they knew Harry to be neither humble or nervous around anyone apart from them earlier in the day.
"Now Harry you will have to go with the younger students across the lake to be sorted" Albus said
"Actually professor" Hagrid interrupted and looked nervous in doing so "I think Harry may be too big to ride in one of the boats it may be best for him to go in a carriage with the rest of the school"
"Nonsense it is tradition" Albus said
"Albus the boy is at least 6'4" Severus said finally looking at Harry and had to admit he looked more like Ryan Potter's son than Lily and James' as he didn't need glasses and where as James had been a wiry chaser who covered as seeker, Ryan had been a tall, powerfully built chaser that had lead the Slytherin chaser line to three house cups in a row, "he will not fit in a boat, let some of the students take him in a carriage"
"We'll take him" Daphne and Blaise said at the same time and blushed when all of the professors looked at them with different looks on their faces. Snape looked indifferent, Minerva seemed dubious of the two girls but Albus didn't like the idea at all.
"Actually ladies I think that it would be best that Harry travel with the staff" Albus said "after all we wouldn't want another member of the student body attacking Mr Potter would we?"
"Actually professor" Harry said his anger on a slow boil at what the older man had suggested "I would like to travel with Daphne and Blaise as we where in the middle of a conversation" and the three of them and Hermione walked off before anyone could stop them.
"That was brilliant" Blaise said when they got into their carriage.
"Harry" Hermione seemed to say hesitantly "are you sure you should talk to the headmaster that way?"
"Hermione please don't take this the wrong way" Harry said "but there are things that you don't know about that I will tell you I promise and when you know those things you will know why I am doing what I am doing"
30 minutes later
"Potter, Harry" Minerva called out and Harry walked up to the stool and the hat was placed on his head as he secretly thought of how he was going to kill Ryan for saying you had to duel a dragon and a troll to be sorted.
"Ah Mr Potter" a voice in Harry's head said "finally you have come to Hogwarts"
"Yes" Harry said "I may kill my uncle for lying about the sorting"
"Ah Ryan Potter" the hat said in Harry's head "I remember his sorting well, a Slytherin with some Gryffindor tendencies with the brain of a Ravenclaw and the loyalty of a Hufflepuff he was one of the hardest to sort and you are the same young Harry do you have any preference?"
"Well my friends are in Slytherin" Harry said "so Slytherin would be my first choice"
"SLYTHERIN!" the hat shouted.
Dumbledore looked pissed, McGonagall looked depressed and Snape looked impressed.
"Things just got interesting" Blaise muttered to Daphne
"Hold on Hogwarts" Daphne muttered "this is going to be one hell of a bumpy ride"
