Hi ppls X3 After the long wait I finally took the time to get my butt down on a seat and write some more of this fanfic. So w/out further ado back to the story!

Insomnia: I'd like to answer a few questions here so if you have any send them on to me. Oh yes by the way…

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter in any way whatsoever if I did I wouldn't have Dumbledore be gay.

'Ssssssss' Parsletongue


-Last time on Harry Potter-Black and the Sorcerer's Stone Redone-

Harry and Collette have finished their training with Sirius, a little reflecting and thoughts of the good times, and now Sirius has gotten the two a gift for each of them. Just what exactly did Sirius give them?

Chapter 7 Surprises, We're off to Hogwarts

. . . Harry and Collette saw that they had just received very valuable Black family heirlooms, they had been taught about many artifacts by Sirius so knew right off the bat that these heirlooms they had been given were meant for stronger wizards and witches only. It seemed Sirius had deemed them strong and responsible enough to have given them elemental bracelets courtesy of the Black family.

"D-Dad a-are you s-sure about this? Do you r-really want to give this to us even though these are irreplaceable?" Harry was still gobsmacked that his father even considered them able enough to handle the Black Family elemental bracelets there were only five of these babies in existence and out of those five only three belonged to the black family.

Sirius nodded his smile still on his face while his son still was in a semi-shocked state well so was Collette off to the side who was looking at the bracelet closely in awe at it's pure and simple beauty, the jewels flashed colors as they were held in the light an unearthly glow surrounding the metal of the bracelet itself. Collette looked up to Sirius and ran at him, Sirius not expecting the sudden action let out an "oomph" as not only Collette but also Harry had tackled him to the ground hugging him while telling him thank you over and over again.

Sirius laughed as the repeated thanks from them kept on coming till he finally started to form a plan to actually get some much needed air from his lack of. So in his brilliant scheme he began to tickle them off of him seeing that it was working Sirius managed to emerge victorious once again. Sirius managed to stand up while Harry and Collette were still catching there breathe from Sirius' tickle-me-off plan.

"Ok then pups I just want you to know that I am proud of you and I trust you both to use these for well I didn't think of what so don't worry if you happen to catch Snape's robes on fire, hehe now if only I could get a picture of that!" Sirius ended with his maniacal laughter that usually came with any prank that had something or another to do with Snape but hey that was usual.

"Ok, ok Dad we'll remember to do things we want to do with it, wait wow anything hmmm," and well now Harry was lost in thoughts too so sad only Collette was left to not falling into what seemed to be their own minds bugger that she was going to leave them and raid the fridge teaches them to ignore her, again.

-Later that afternoon-

Remus had just arrived not that long ago bringing with him his own gifts for Harry and Collette going to Hogwarts of course his was more towards actually helping them with their classes over there still. Well of course having your own potion ingredient collectors' kit usually helped confuse a certain greasy git as Remus so, nicely put it. Still they weren't complaining this would definitely help them in future pranks or even some other product they would really need just in case of emergencies well thanks to Remus and Sirius they knew just what to make so that really did help that they could make it from memory.

Sirius and Remus in a joint effort decided to have a mini-party for just the four of them to help make the last two days the pups, as Sirius liked to call them (ok so Remus did too), were at home they decided to bring Collette's mom somewhere else the next day so that the whole family for both of them actually got to spend time together with Harry and Collette.

Throughout it all Harry and Collette generally had fun though it usually is fun turning your favorite two people into two grownup men dressed up as stuffed teddy bears totally normal oh yeah. Though revenge was taken on them later when no matter what they wore they always looked as if they had on polka dotted leotards. After the fun was all over and night time came Collette left to go back home.

-Night time-

Sirius entered back into the room as soon as he saw off Remus. Harry still sat in the same chair he had been in for the last few minutes waiting for Sirius to get back. "Harry, I know I may have said this already but I want to say it again. I couldn't be more proud of you then I am now. These years that you've been here well they were the greatest and I'll miss that but I know that you are finally going to start your own journey in this world. I want you to know that I'll always be there to help you just because your going off to Hogwarts doesn't mean that I won't-," Sirius was about to continue till he felt pressure on his waist where he saw Harry there hugging him so not bothering to continue he knelt down and hugged his son who's life from here on out wasn't going to get any easier but he knew he would do anything to keep his Harry happy no matter what it took on that he promised.

"Don't worry Dad I won't forget about you or anything, how could I forget about the coolest Dad in the world anyway," Harry let go of his Dad and turned around a few tears falling down his face his dad not faring any better but there was one thing at least they were happy knowing what they knew.

-Harry later that night in his room-

Harry's p.o.v.

I looked around to make sure no one was with me before I opened up a secret compartment I had made in my desk letting out a little someone no else knew about. "Finally let me out did you, do you know how cramped it can get in there speaking of which do you have any of my favorite treats on ya?" Ah looks like Drake was his usual self. Drake still looked the same as when I first found him.

-Flashback-

-1 year ago Diagon Alley-

"So you're telling me this item really turns people into ferrets?" I wonder if I could use that on that Malfoy git that keeps bugging Sirius every time we go to the ministry? The store clerk gave me a nod and then tried explaining a few other things to me while he started showing me the items he was talking about. I boringly turned my head and just happened to catch a glimpse or was it a sliver of something moving on the ground outside. 'For a person working in a joke shop this dude seriously is a bore ooh I know what I'll follow that thing I saw moving!' So my plan of escape from Cave of boredom was commenced and I escaped and managed to make it outside without any permanent side effects only to notice that the thing I saw earlier was moving around the corner to the Apothecary so me being me I went to follow. I turned the corner and really wasn't expecting to see a rather brute man standing in my way with his back blocking my entrance into the alley so me being me peered around the bloke to see that he was trying to vaporize the thing I saw earlier only now I noticed though that it wasn't a thing rather it was a snake. Not one of those big snakes that everyone tells you "Eek oh my goodness, oh my goodness I think it's going to squeeze me" hehe rather fun times. Anywho no it didn't have that appearance rather it seemed to have an interesting silver and green scaly body that was small and slender and seeing the brute in front of me had a rather shady and sneaky feeling to him I decided to do my one good deed for the day and help the poor little critter. Pretty easy when all you have to do really is use a little wandless magic while no one is looking to make the dudes pants catch on fire while having to repeatedly try and pull his pants back up another classic patented by Padfoot and yours truly Harry Black AAAAh and the crowd goes wild!

The man ran away into what seemed a laughing crowd who looked like they wanted to help but couldn't stop laughing ok so maybe a few tried to help. Looking back into the alley I saw the snake curled up in the Alley's dead end corner.

"Hey there buddy look I'm not armed," I started out with this since it looked like the snake was ready to bite, ok so it probably would.

Cocking its head to the side it stood down. "Ah, a sspeaker I did not expect to ssee one in my life time," the snaked hissed back to my statement.

All I could do really was stare and not help but think how did it speak to me? It took me a while but then it struck me. Thinking back to the lesson Remus taught him on the various languages wizards could speak he remembered one that could talk to snakes it was something like parsley no, uhm, parselmouth, no oh I got it, Remus said it was Parsletongue! So that was it evidently I was what people would call parseltongue, but wait, don't they consider them evil?

"Sspeaker if I may have a moment, I would asssk to be your partner, if you will it," knowing that there was only one way of becoming partners, bonding, I heavily thought this out after all it would affect me quite a bit in the long run but it would also be useful to have a snake as a partner since they could be of great help. Weighing the pros and the cons I decided what the heck and agreed.

Coming out and saying yes I was still confused as to what to do to commence the bonding process until I noticed the snake bleeding and realized it must be a blood bonding, even better. So making the necessary cut with a minor spell I proceeded to reach down and let the blood meet with the snake's blood. That was when it got a little interesting to say the least. When the blood met I could hear the snake chanting something under its hisses, to say it wasn't mesmerizing would be a lie because as soon as I could hear it I sure was. I look down and noticed a dark silver green colored looking kind of energy come from the meeting of the blood and encompass my hand and the snakes body and the next thing I know a little flash of green later and everything was over.

"Finally, thank you massster," the snake hissed at me. Thinking of it as the snake was getting bothersome and the whole master comment, yeah that had to go.

"For one, please call me Harry, on the another note your welcome, I think, uhm, not to pry or anything but could you tell me what your name is that a way I can have a name to go with the scales?" I asked.

The snake nodded and proceeded to tell me what I needed to know, "Asss you wish, Harry, for my name you may call me Drake."

Nodding back I grinned and excitedly said, "Well Drake welcome to the family and welcome to your new home." And with that comment left in the open I picked Drake up and went back home where Sirius still had no clue of me leaving and I lived un-blamed yet again.

-End Flashback-

"Hello Great Circe to Harry are you still there, and I'm still hungry you should really get your human ears checked you seem to be deaf once again, oh and by the way I'm hungry if you still didn't know," yep usual Drake.

"Yes, yes Drake I have your bloody food, here. Now before you went on your food rant I was going to ask if you wanted to come to Hogwarts with me but seeing as you had to be rude I don't know if I want to ask you anymore," this should work it would usually get Drake to do anything for me.

Seeing that I had his attention I began, "Alrighty then like I was saying though I came to tell you to be ready for the day after tomorrow becaaauuusseee we're finally off to Hogwarts! Now I know we're going to have to sneak you there since they say no snakes allowed but I'm not a Jr. Marauder for nothing you know." Drake hissed in agreement having experienced this first hand so knew one way or another he was going with Harry to Hogwarts, oh well new food to eat.

Suddenly there was a knocking at the door that my head automatically turned to look at it, "Harry you in there? It's Sirius here, no really it's me hey wait a minute your not staring at yourself in the mirror again are you? Hehe that was great, ah good times, good times."

My eye twitched as my dad talked on about that "moment" in my life that did not need be mentioned again if a certain someone knew what was best for him.

"NO DAD I'M NOT STARING IN THE MIRROR!" I yelled back getting the message across.

"Jeez ok, if you say so. Anywho I'm coming in now," in came Sirius dressed in his pajamas with little grims running around on them. I smiled as I knew this would be one of the last few times I would get to spend along with dad, the only down side about going to Hogwarts, dad wouldn't be with him everyday anymore.

Dad threw me a smile and suddenly I felt better and knew that my dad would always be there for me as he told me over and over again. I ran to my dad before he could tell me anything and cried onto his shoulder as he bent down to hug me close to him.

"Dad I don't want to leave without you!" I started not knowing why I was crying or why it started only knowing that I didn't care at this point. "Can't you just come with me to school, please dad I don't want to be there with you not there," I cried out to him as he rubbed my back making me calm down and hiccup a few times as I just stood there holding onto my dad as tight as I could to make sure he wouldn't leave me.

"Shh Harry it's okay, look I'm still here, I'm not going anywhere son, not ever," Sirius told me continuing to soothe me as he repeatedly told me over and over again that he wasn't and before I knew it I was in the land of Morpheus dreaming away of adventures and broomsticks and snitches.

Normal point of view-

Sirius smiled as his son fell asleep, a lone tear falling down as he got a determined expression on his face on what he knew he was going to do tonight.

He picked Harry up and set him in bed with one last goodnight then left the room closing the door behind him.

Hogwarts school for witchcraft and wizardry- headmaster's office

Dumbledore at this late hour could be seen working on the rest of his paperwork as he sighed once again, an unfortunate accident that very same day had taken the life of his Defense against the Dark Arts teacher, poor Quirrel. Evidently from the reports that Dumbledore had received Quirrel had been traveling through the Dark woods of Albania in search of the local vampire coven when he supposedly was attacked by a wraith, the wraith it seems had tried to take over his body. It seems though that when the wraith was close to completely taking over him he had quickly killed himself. And so now we find Dumbledore where he is now filling out the paperwork for the day including the papers for Quirrel.

Dumbledore sighed as he pushed up his half-moon glasses and looked at Fawkes who trilled a few notes to help cheer him up when the fireplace in his office lit up into a green flame and a very noticeable voice started speaking.

"Dumbledore are you there?" the voice was saying. Dumbledore automatically recognized Sirius' voice and replied with a yes come on over.

As Sirius set foot in the office he took the seat that was offered to him and sat as Dumbledore looked up with the best smile he could put on at the moment his eyes not twinkling as much as they usually did but twinkled none-the-less.

"Ah Sirius how may this old fellow help you today? Care for a lemon drop?" Dumbledore asked Sirius who only nodded his head no at the offer of a lemon drop before he adopted a serious look on his face that almost threw Dumbledore off.

"Yes professor you can, I wanted to know if there was anyway I can be here when my son is!?" Sirius half asked half begged in his desperate need to know to look after his son.

At hearing this everything suddenly looked up for Dumbledore more so than that whole day had brought him. Dumbledore's twinkle in his eyes suddenly went back to normal as opposed to the below average twinkle he had had the whole day. Looks like he wouldn't have to search for a new teacher after all!

"Sirius, I have a proposition for you, you see a teaching spot has just recently opened that needs to be filled and well if you were willing to teach it then I'm sure there would be no problem with you staying here with your son. In fact the job is something I'm sure you are more than capable of teaching, The Defense against the Dark Arts," Dumbledore finished this by looking at Sirius to see what he would do next, accept the job or try something else.

Sirius could not believe his luck, all he had to do to watch over his son was to teach a subject that he liked. This offer was not bad at all in fact better than what he thought it could be.

"Sir, this, this is, this is just what I was hoping for, if you wouldn't mind would you care if I asked Remus to help me teach it?" Sirius switching back to his playful mood even added in a puppy eye stare effectively taking a page out of his son's tactics.

Dumbledore chuckled at his ex-student's tactics and shook his head as he replied, "Well I don't see anything wrong with that just make sure you're here and we'll settle everything the first day of school, other than that just sign this form here so I can finalize the job for you and I'll have Lupin sign this as soon as I contact him, Professor Black," Dumbledore had to laugh at the irony that such a troublemaker as Sirius would actually be a professor now, and Sirius seeing the irony about being called a professor himself laughed to. The future looked brighter now.

2 days later-

"heheheHAHAHA Harry stop that, s-stop th-that Ha-Harry, no no no stop tickling me!" one Collette yelled at Harry Black as he continued to tickle his best friend as his dad and Ms. White looked on in amusement at Harry and Collette having fun before they all flooed over to Platform 9 ¾.

Sirius seeing that it was wise to make an attempt to go now or be late rounded up the playing kids as they both tried to free themselves from Sirius' evil masterminded clutches, all the while Ms. White laughed at the predicament and followed Sirius while levitating the children's trunks plus one cage holding Collette's owl Azarath.

Arriving just outside the lounge room where the floo was located at on Platform 9 ¾ Harry shakily walked out followed by a stumbling Collette that fell right into Harry which led to Sirius coming out and tripping over them and one Ms. White to come out laughing her ass off at them for falling in the first place before helping her daughter out while Sirius helped his son up.

Harry and Collette could only stare in awe as they spotted the Hogwarts Express the massive train with its scarlet body sitting there magnificently in all its glory right before their very eyes that is until they saw multiple flashes and heard the maniacal laughter that parents just happen to have when they have done something their kids won't like.

Groaning at their parents' actions they marched forward to the Hogwarts Express and stood before it as their parents hugged them and looked at them proudly, after all it wasn't everyday your kid got to attend the greatest wizarding school for the very first time too.

"Now remember Collette if anyone is giving you a hard time just use either that bat bogey hex or the tongue tying jinx ok, double goes for you Harry if Collette is in trouble and you are there you better help her out you got that mister," Sirius playfully tapped Harry's shoulders as he said this pulling out his marauder grin while Harry adorned his too while Collette and her mom could only hang their heads down and groan, men honestly.

The whistle on the train blew and parents rushed their kids to get onto the train. Harry and Collette rushed to give their parents a hug and run to the train to get on board, as they boarded Harry turned back around to his dad who was standing off to the side with his arms crossed and his smile still on his face and yelled out "Dad bye I-I'll miss you, you better write!"

Sirius could only make his smile wider as he nodded his head giving his silent a-okay to his son. Sirius then had a sudden idea as the train started moving out. He let out a laugh as he shifted into his animagus form and ran after the train barking at Harry who started laughing and crying at the same time as he waved vigorously at his dad's antics.

Sirius stopped as the train completely left the station and went out of view. 'Looks like it's time to head onto work hehe,' and with that thought Sirius apparated to Hogwarts where one surprised Harry was sure to be.

-On the train-

Harry's p.o.v.

Collette and I finally found an empty compartment after high-tailing it onto the train. Putting up our trunks we turned to look out the window as the Hogwart's express made its way out of Platform 9 ¾.

"so this is finally it the big moment our first go at Hogwart's, eh Collette?" I started out to Collette who had absent mindedly been staring at the Black elemental bracelet on her wrist.

"oh, oh yes it is, hey Harry we'll still be friends no matter what right?" What a strange question to here from Collette, she should know by now we always would be the best of friends!

"Of course you remember Collette we promised friends till the end," I held up my fist trying to pull off the hero pose which only caused Collette to laugh out an of course.

Suddenly the compartment door opened and a boy with red hair and freckles everywhere entered only to stop himself and turn to me.

"Uhm, could I sit in your compartment everywhere else is full?" the red head asked, thinking nothing of it I replied with a sure why not.

Once he was inside the compartment all the way I recognized him as the Weasley twins younger brother, what was his name, Bon, no, er, Rhone, no that wasn't it either. Oh wait Ron yeah that sounded right.

"Wait your Ron aren't you? Fred and George's younger brother! It's me Harry," maybe this would get him to hurry up he seemed to really like that door and I simply couldn't let any door suffer being open that long, it might get a cold after all.

"Harry? Oh wait Harry Potter! I forgot that you would be here!" With that he seemed to make himself at home right there with us, the only thing though that bothered me was that he kept glancing up at my forehead, hey I knew I looked good but hopefully Ron didn't swing that way, ew.

"Hey, Harry, could, could I see you're you know *in a whisper*scar?" He asked me, whew that wasn't sounding right at first. Questioning why the heck he would want to see my scar I obliged him and showed just so he wouldn't bother me.

Hopefully since I looked like Sirius at least most people wouldn't notice me as Harry Potter, no I would be Harry Black. As soon as I but my bangs back down and allowed my metamorphuges skills to hide it again a girl with bushy brown hair barged in and started asking if anyone had seen this boy named Neville's toad Trevor.

"Uhm not to be rude or anything but who are you, my head hurts, owww," getting weird stared I smile and silently summon Trevor the toad to my hand much to the surprise of the bushy brown hair girl in front of me.

That's when I notice her eyes go wide and her mouth open, "HOW DID YOU DO THAT! TELL ME IS THAT FROM THE FIRST YEAR BOOK, I READ ALL OUR BOOKS AND MEMORIZED IT BY HEART, WILL YOU TEACH ME IT, PLEASE I'LL-DO-A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G!" Holding my head I promptly put my hand over her overly charged running mouth to get a word in.

"Ask for a name and I get a million words, no now can we try this again. Hi I'm Harry Black, and you Miss Exuberant?" I saw her face go back to normal except for the look of surprise, surprise about what I don't know.

"My name is Hermione Granger a pleasure to meet you," she held out her hand and I happily took it not noticing Collette's face briefly flash with anger.

A few minutes later Hermione left to bring Trevor back to his rightful owner. Thinking that was everyone that would come I was sadly mistaken when a blonde with his hair slicked back stepped in meticulously eyeing everyone in the compartment.

"Hi there, er sorry it seems you missed the party but you can stay here if you want," I started out with noticing that the blonde finally focused his eyes on me.

"That's too bad but it would seem I still found the main event. The name is Malfoy, Draco Malfoy. I have come to ask for your friendship, if you accept that is," holding out his hand. I stood there thinking well at least as much as I could before Ron started yelling that is.

"MALFOY YOU NO GOOD BLOODY SON OF A CHIWAWA !" the red head yelled, though I didn't know why. Not seeing why I should listen to Ron when Draco at least seemed cool headed I accepted the handshake saying I looked forward to how things would turn out.

"It would seem that some people can actually think in this age of time, thanks I look forward to this "friendship", till later then," Draco swiftly turned around to walk out of the compartment his jet black, silver trimmed robes billowing behind him, the ever mysterious wind blowing it as he walked.

When Draco was gone I turned around only to come into contact with a pissed off Ron. "How could you! I thought we were friends! But now YOU go and talk to that no good dirty Malfoy of all people!" Seeing red literally and figuratively that is I yelled back," Will you shut up maybe I don't care, maybe I thought I would make a friend rather than an enemy but evidently you can't even accept that, so you can go screw off for all I care just get out of here and maybe I won't tell Fred and George how you acted, I'm sure that they would just love to have a go at you with their pranks, and when they're finished I'll prank you." With that I pointed Ron out of the compartment in which Ron angrily took his stuff and left with my birdies pointing in his direction.

Taking a few minutes to calm down I looked at Collette who gave me an encouraging hug and said it was ok, for which I was thankful for. "10 minutes till arrival, all students change into school robes and collect their belongings, thank you have a nice day," the voice that be from above said giving me my next thing to do.

"Harry if you don't mind can you leave for a bit so I can get changed I'll let you back in when I am finished of course, but, er, yeah just need you out," Collette told me giving me the just do it look, so me being me said eh why not and took my clothes with me to go change in the one of the bathroom stalls.

Passing by the compartment I happened in front of one that was still left open looking in I saw Draco again, seeing that he noticed me he motioned me on in telling me I could change in here once he saw the clothes still in my hands.

"So Draco what was with Ron back there, uhm sorry what I meant to say was why did yell at you like that?" I tried keeping it to where he could still hear it so I didn't rush talk it all in.

Draco just kept nodding his head as if he expected such a question if not exactly that to pop up sometime soon. "Well Harry, our families haven't had what you would call a "friendly" relationship. No our family have been feuding against each other for the better part of what is nearing 100 years. Then again that was our ancestors and I for one have no wish to hold such a petty argument that has gone on to long as it is. Though as you have seen not everyone views it the way I do, there is only so much that can be done but I hope to do enough to ensure that I can make allies rather than enemies like my father so stupidly has done," Draco finished his hand pushing his hair back again to push the few strands that were loose back into their spiked back positions.

I could only nod my head thinking of how that must suck to be in an argument that long, I knew I would never be able to keep mad that long either just like Draco. Hearing this from the horses own mouth though made my starting respect for Draco go up thinking that it was a good thing I talked to him after all on this chance meeting.

Waving my hand in farewell to Draco, who mindlessly waved back as his glance turned to a book that was lying on the seat still almost forgotten by its owner, I started my way back to the compartment I was sharing with Collette only to have her be right there at the door waiting for me.

"What took you so long Harry?" she asked as I finally came to a stop in front of her. I told her I met up real quick with Draco she then preceded to tell me that they had magic'd our stuff to Hogwarts already I sat down once again with her waiting the last few minutes till our arrival at a new place, a new life, and best of all a new adventure.


Hey guys and galls srry it took this long I've been preoccupied with a lot of things and what not, so thankfully I managed with this one. Working on chapter 8 so hope you all enjoyed this.~Insomnia
