When Harry opened his eyes after the blinding light dimmed down he noticed that everyone was standing still like when his grandmother froze time to talk to him. This time Harry realized that it wasn't the queen because she also was frozen, this time it was a man that Harry hoped he would never have to see again. Standing just ten feet away from him was Voldemort.
"Harry nice party you have here, I guess the owl lost my invitation." Voldemort said while walking closer to Harry with an evil smirk on his face.
Harry grabbed his forehead to cover the scar that was surging with pain. "What do you want Tom?"
"Do not call me that boy!" Voldemort raised his voice a bit but calmed down almost instantly not wanting the boy to get to him, "but since you asked why I am here I will tell you." Voldemort walked over to the queen, "do you think that this place can show you how to reach your full potential?"
"Get away from her!" Harry shot a bolt of lightning at the Dark Lord but all Voldemort did was wave his hand and the bolt disappeared before it could even get near him.
"No Harry" Voldemort said while pulling out an amulet from under his robes. "I can't have you try and kill me when we are having a conversation. This amulet will protect me from your attacks."
"What?" Harry was dumbfounded
"Why do you think your father couldn't beat me Harry? Your father was a powerful elemental but no element attack can hurt me." The Dark Lord slowly walked over to the prince. "I am going to tell you something that only a few know; I am not the big bad of this world. There is another more powerful then me, which is where I got this stone and a few abilities."
"That's a lie Tom; you would never call anyone master." Harry stared at the Dark Lord forgetting about the pain the man was causing him.
"I would never all anyone in the wizarding world master but I am no fool even I know that you're race is more powerful that mine." Voldemort almost laughed at the confused look Harry was giving him. "I have been promised the wizarding world if I can bring you to our side and I'm aloud to use any means necessary."
"I will never join you Tom, you are evil and insane." Harry yelled at his parent's murderer.
Voldemort walked back over to Harry "I knew it would come to this." He placed his hand on Harry's cheek watching the prince wither in pain. "There is nothing you can do right now boy, so either join us or else."
"Never!" Harry was clenching his teeth trying not to show fear or the pain that was running through his body. Harry was trying to transform to Angelus but he couldn't and he didn't know how to call his guardians so Harry felt hopeless.
"You are going to regret that." The Dark Lord threw Harry to the floor and walked over to his aunt Petunia. "What do we have here?" Voldemort grabbed Petunia's hair as time started again.
The hall was in chaos from what they saw, Voldemort with the prince's aunt and the prince himself on the floor. Five guards ran over to Harry trying to pull him to safety but he would have none of it. Harry got loose from the guards and was running passed all the exiting people to get to his aunt. Angelica also wouldn't leave the hall because Harry was still there so the guards just started to attack making sure they didn't hit Petunia.
Everyone was confused as to why no one could hit the Dark Lord with an attack; they stood there waiting for Voldemort to make his next move. When Harry got to his aunt Voldemort was smirking. "Harry, you will join us if it the last thing I do." Voldemort then drew his wand and rested the tip on Petunia's temple. Petunia was squirming and trying to get away.
"Harry run, he will kill you!" Petunia yelled at her nephew but Harry didn't listen. Voldemort threw Petunia to the floor and pointed his wand at her. "Join us or she dies!" Harry was trying to put a shield around his aunt but that didn't work either. 'What is this power good for if I can't protect the people I love?' Harry thought but he wouldn't give up.
"I will never join you so LET HER GO!" Harry yelled but since Voldemort thought that kids should respect their elders He pointed his was at Harry and the boy went flying across the room.
All Harry saw before he passed out was guards coming at him hearing two words he never wanted to hear again come from the other side of the room "Avada Kedavra"

As Harry was standing in one of the scanning rooms as he recalled events that happened a week ago. His aunt was dead, the person that was like his mother was gone; taken away by the same person that took his real parents.
After 'the event' as every one called it Harry kept to himself most of the time. In meetings he would just nod and just agree with what Draco suggested. He broke it off with Kayla telling her that he never loved her and that he had a duty to the race to marry Princess Mina. Kayla didn't take it well at all and vowed to get him back if it was the last thing she did.
The only thing that Harry showed any emotion was in training and into the search for Voldemort's Master. In training Elder Ash was teaching Harry how to use his scanning abilities. "Harry first we are going to start you off with magical creatures because they usually have only one or two gifts and if you were to try another elemental the surge of information would kill you." Harry's master was explaining.
"How do I start?" Harry said waking over to the examination table.
"First we need the creature" The old man snapped his fingers and a Phoenix appeared on the table in front of Harry. The Prince smiled at the bird while stroking his feathers.
Elder Ash put a piece of paper beside the bird then walked behind Harry and put his hand on his shoulders. "Hover your hands over the Phoenix, close your eyes and use your magic to search for the bird's magical core. I will help you focus by connecting our minds together."
Harry did as he was told and closed his eyes while his hands were barley touching the creature. As he gathered some of his magic and let it out gently from his hands, Harry could feel the power enter the bird. Before he had time to register what was happening Harry saw flashes of symbols enter his mind, as the symbols kept coming he noticed that they were repeating themselves and there were only five.
The symbols stopped flashing and Harry could see only one symbol then heard his master speaking to him. "Harold I want you to concentrate on the symbol that you see right now, what do you think it means?"
Harry concentrated on what the symbol looked like then he remembered where he saw it before. "It looks like the rune on Ginny's door it the elemental room it is not the same but similar."
"Now I want you to project the symbol with your mind towards the paper, concentrate on the symbol being on the paper." Ash suggested to his apprentice.
As Harry did what his master was saying he lost control and the symbols were flashing again. It was too much for Harry to handle so he moved his hands away from the bird. "I'm sorry Sir. I lost control, it will never happen again." When Harry was going to try the procedure again the elder just shoved the piece of paper towards him noticing that there were all the symbols on the paper.
"You lost control but you still got the symbol on the page. Getting all the symbols is one of the hardest things to do so we can confirm that you are a master at this but you would have lost marks if this was a test because I never asked for all the symbols." Ash said smiling at the boy. "That will be all for today because you start school tomorrow and you still need to pack.
