I don't own anything

Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Supreme Mugwump of the International Confederation or Warlocks, Chief Warlock of the British Wizengamet, and leader of the Order of the Pheonix closed his tired eyes and thought "Harry Potter...Nearly 10 years ago I left you on your aunts doorstep the night after your parents were killed...Nearly 10 years ago you disappeared shortly after I left and have not been seen since...though Gringott's has claimed that you are alive and well and have very adamantly stated that any attempt by the Wizengamet to declare him dead would result in Gringott's closing thier doors...just as they did in 1985 after the Ministry checked to see if Mr. Potter had been registered in the muggle school registry and learned he had not which forced me to reveal the truth that I have no idea where he is."

Shaking his head he thought "Damn goblins...they actually closed the bank for an entire week and nearly had a new rebellion if the Ministry tried to make any move against Harry Potter or his family accounts...They even went so far as to close all my vaults and throw all my things out on the steps of Gringotts and forbid me and my family ever setting foot on thier property again...My brother was not happy about that."

Looking up at the students who had come into the Great Hall for the new school year he thought "That made it where anyone who was willing to aid me in trying to force them to give me information about Mr. Potter will refuse to help me now, afraid the Goblins will do the same to them. Minister Fudge will not attempt to go against the Goblins again because the bank closing nearly cost him his position as Minister. Gringott's gave a press announcement to not only every paper here in Brittian but also ever major newspaper in the world. The Goblins closed thier banks world wide for those 7 days. They claimed House Potter is an Ally of Gringott's and Gringott's will not allow anyone to try and touch any Potter property entrusted to them besides a Potter including where Mr. Potter is."

Reaching up he grabbed his glasses and pulled them off and began to clean them and thought "Gringott's has stated that Mr. Potter will come to Hogwarts for his school year after his 11th birthday to prove he is alive...which brings me to why I am worried now." as he glanced at those seated besides him.

Shaking his head he thought "Minister Fudge is here along with Lord Malfoy, a member of the school board of Govenors. Besides them is Vlad Van Helsing, Vice Chairman of the ICW and Head of the ICW security council and head of the ICW International strike force along with his apprentice, Apex...They have all came to put the issue of Harry Potter being alive to rest...Here come the first years...I don't see Harry Potter. I hope he appears before his name is called."

As Professor Minerva McGonagall came into the room with the first years students Vlad Van Helsing stood up and said "Pardon me but before we continue there is something I need to say. There is a name on your list that I request you skip. I will explain why after the sorting so that the first years may be seated while I explain since the explanation will take quite some time. The name I ask you skip is Harry Potter."

Many eyes widen at this and murmurs broke through the room and Dumbledore started to open his mouth and Vlad said "I am not making this request for myself Albus but at the request of the entire ICW security council. I'll tell you after the sorting Albus, not before. You will understand why shortly but be patient."

Dumbledore frowned but nods his head and said "Proceed Minerva."

As the students were sorted many eyes kept looking at Vlad.

Once the sorting was over everyone seem to turn to Vlad who said "Apex."

A figure who was wearing a brown cloak and black tinted goggles was leaning against the wall and said "It's worst then we feared. It appears we will have a cascade failure in less then 12 months...and that's if we can get help from the students and teachers here. If we don't then we may have to close Hogwarts before the Christmas break in order to protect the students."

Many eyes widen at this and Vlad sighed and said "I see...it's as we feared. The war with Grindelwald and Voldemort made it impossible to act any sooner and then we had to wait until certian conditions were met since Voldemort's defeat."

Dumbledore frowned as he heard this and Minister Fudge said "What are you both talking about. You can't close Hogwarts."

Many gasp went through the room and Dumbledore said "I believe that we should speak somewhere more private gentlemen." as he waved his arms and food appeared at all the students tables.

Vlad said "No Dumbledore, we will not speak somewhere more private. I have cancelled the privacy spell you tried to put up. As much as I and the rest of the security council wishes to keep this information secret you heard what my apprentice said. If we do not have help from the students and staff then we are looking at a cascade failure which is very bad. So bad that we will have to invoke the Omega protocals. You know what that is don't you Dumbledore."

Dumbledore paled and said "You can't be serious. I won't allow it."

Fudge said "What...What is the Omega protocal."

Vlad said "You have no say in the matter Dumbledore. Try to intefere and you will be locked up in Azkaban as the ICW strike force will declare martial law and take over the British Ministry of Magic. This situation is so dangerous that if a cascade failure happens then not only will the statue of secrecy be destroyed but ove 50 percent of all the magical locations in the world will lose thier magic and those magical families who live near those locations will begin to lose thier magic and nearly every magical child born after the cascade failure will be born a squib. THAT is how dangerous this situation is."

Many gasp of shock and fear were seen and heard in the room and Vlad felt a hand on his shoulder and tensed a moment before he heard Apex said "Perhaps I should explain the situation so that everyone can understand what is going on while you have a chance to compose yourself."

Vlad said "You are correct Apex, proceed."

Apex nods and lowered his hood and walked toward the middle of the great hall and everyone saw that he was bald headed and looked to be about 13 or 14 years old wearing a pair of black tinted goggles that completely hid his eyes and he said "There is an old saying that the truth is a beautiful and terrible thing, and therefore be treated with caution. Another old saying is that power comes at a price and another that says knowledge is power so that means that knowledge must come at a price...sometimes a terrible price that can be both a blessing and a curse."

Apex looked around the room and said "Many of you here are proud to call yourselves purebloods because your family has been magical for many years and believe that the purity of your blood defines where your proper place in the magical world is...but once you learn the truth about magic that you are about to learn then your look on this will be changed forever."

Apex looked back at Vlad who said "Proceed Apex...as much as I hate to admit the we will need thier help so hearing the entire truth from you will have them realise how serious this situation is and maybe they will be smart enough not to repeat the mistakes of some of thier ancestors."

Apex nods his head and said "The truth of the matter begins many years ago and when I say many I am talking about over 10,000 years ago. I can not say how far back before that because it was only around 10,000 years ago that our ancestors began to hide the truth from those who didn't need to know in order to end senseless bloodshed. You see, at one time this world was a lifeless planet until our ancestors used magic to create a magical portal between another world and this one."

Gasp went through the room and Fudge said "Another world, you must be joking."

Vlad said "No, he's not. The ICW security council was created for the purpose of guarding the secret of our original homeworld and the origins of life on this world as well as the truth about magicals, muggles, and squibs, and magic itself. It was easier to hide the truth and move in secret then reveal the truth and take the chance of the entire world losing it's magic due to the greed of others. Like I told you, if the situation wasn't so deadly we would not be having this discussion but unfortinately the wars with Grindelwald and Voldemort prevented us from being able to deal with this situation earlier when it wasn't so dangerous. Continue Apex."

Apex said "Very well. Now as I stated earlier our ancestors came to this world and began to change it to support life. This was actually the first attempt by our ancestors to do so because our homeworlds population was getting larger then the world could support. The plan was to come here and terraform this world to not only allow our people to continue to grow but also relieve the burden on the resources of our homeworld...Unfortinately since our homeworld was so drenched with magic they never considered the effect of coming to a world that had no magic appearing naturally."

Dumbledore said "But what about the ley lines. They appear naturally."

Vlad said "Don't tell me you are actually stupid enough to believe straight lines like ley lines appear naturally Dumbledore. Our ancestors created them but I'm getting ahead of Apex story and you need to understand everything. Go ahead."

Apex said "Thank you. It's commonly known that living things sometimes change in order to adapt to thier enviroment in order to survive. When our ancestors came to this world and brought thier plants, animals, and families they had no idea that without a saturation of thier homeworlds magic they would begin adapting in order to survive...It was first notice with plants and animals being born or grown with less and less magic or no magic at all and then when the effects began to happen with magical children being born with less and less magic until it got to the point of either squibs being born or what would be the first muggles born in this world."

A blond boy who was sorted into Slytherin that Apex remembered being named Draco Malfoy said "Your lying. Muggles are no relations to magicals."

Apex said "Watch your mouth Draco Malfoy, son of Lucius Malfoy and Narcissa Malfoy nee Black."

Draco paled slightly before he said "Or what."

Apex said "The ICW security council has known the truth about magical, muggles, and squibs through years of research and training. Do you really think that we wouldn't have figure out ways to take the magic from people not worthy of it. Insult me again by calling me a liar and I'll see to it personally that you live the rest of your life as a squib."

Draco paled as did his father while many others looked on in shock, aw, or fear.

Lucius Malfoy said "You can't do that to my son."

The next moment Lucius felt a sword at his neck as Apex body seemed to shimmer a moment before it blurred and appeard behind Lucius holding the sword at Lucius neck.

Everyone in the room was shocked by what they just seen and Vlad said "There is a reason why no dark lord in any country outside of this one has never lasted longer then a year after they first appeared. Since Grindelwald the ICW strike force was created for the single purpose of destroying all dark lords and thier followers. The only reason we didn't come to save you from Voldemort is because Dumbledore used his position as head of the ICW to block us from being deployed here...but thankfully that issue is no longer a problem. Should your former master return or a new dark lord rises in this country we have been cleared to eliminate said dark lord and his followers with extreme prejudice."

Dumbledore said "I never gave permission for that."

Vlad smirked and glanced at Dumbledore and said "That's why we went to the Queens government and used the statue of secrecy to get her to give us a royal decree. Since the statue of secrecy is only allowed because of the magically binding contract that we made with the Queens government, the Queen has given us permission to step in and eliminate any threat that arises to the subjects of her realms, magical and non-magical. You can't stop us unless you want to revoke the statue of secrecy and be marked as an enemy of the crown who we are sworn to eliminate."

Many people in the room paled as they heard this and Apex said "You may have got off last time Malfoy by claiming you were under the imperious curse but we know your master used Horcruxes to cheat death and is still alive as a wraith like creature somewhere in the world. Should he ever show his face we have the means to track down each of his Horcruxes and eliminate them, him, and any of his followers who stupid enough to return to his side. I am but only one wizard and a young one at strike force is composed of 5000 strong and each are more powerful and better trained then I am. 5000 people able to move with the same deadly speed and abilities that I just used to show you why you and your son should be careful with your actions. Understand."

Lucius gulped and nods his head slightly.

Vlad said "You can deal with the blond idiot later Apex, please continue."

Apex said "As you wish master." as he let his sword slight back into a holster on his back nobody saw before as he walked around the table..

When he got to the front of the staff table in the middle of the room he said "Now where was I...Oh yes, I remember now. The people of our homeworld learned about the loss of magic to those who came here and figured out that it was the loss of magical energy in the enviroment that caused this...They realised they needed to bring more and more magical here in order to stop this...but where there is a demand for something, there is a place for profit to be made as well...The homeworld began to charge the people of this world for the magical plants and animals they needed to keep thier magic and as the population of this world grew the demand grew greater as did the price of the supplies."

Vlad took over and said "Because of the increase in price and demand our ancestors became desperate."

Apex said "Before we continue I want to tell you an example of what some of the prices that Geae charged the people of earth and you can understand why our ancestors did what they did. If you wanted a wife and family you had to agree to a life and magical binding contract that you would force your wife to take a potion where the first child she had would be born female and the female child had to be given back to which ever family you bought her from where she would grow up being used as a pleasure slave until she reach 30 years of age and would then be sold so to another male who wanted a wife here on earth. The fact you had to buy the potion from Geae at a heavy price as well, you had to give up 2 magical animals. If you didn't have the 2 magical animals you had to trade 5 acres of your land that you had cultivated to support magical plants per animal. Anyone who made the contract and refused to do as stated not only lost thier magic but thier entire family became servants of the people of Geae and also had everything thier family ever worked for here on earth taken by Geae."

Vlad shook his head and said "Imagine it, being forced to surrender everything to work for in order to get a wife whose been forced to serve countless men for years before your forced to surrender your daughters to bastards who wanted nothing more then to force you to work your life for nothing while making them richer. That is but one of the many ways the people of Geae treated our ancestors as slaves. That is why our ancestors did what they did and why we do what we have to and why we do not feel guilt or sorrow for the actions we have had to do to save and protect our friends, families, and allies and try to create a better life for our children and thier decendants."

Apex waved his arm dramatically around him and said "Our ancestors knew we did not have the resources to fight a war with the homeworld because they had to much magic and numbers so they came up with the idea to secretly start stealing what they needed to survive here and were either had to choose the lvies of basic slavery or give up our magic all together...That's why they decided that if the homeworld would treat them as slaves and we couldn't fight open war against them we would use a more subtle form of warfare in order to get what we need and break free of the control the homeworld had on us. Our ancestors would sneak back to the homeworld and start collecting magical items as well as using an item called Mana Crystals that had the ability to absorb and release the magic stored within...This worked for a while but because of the the loss of the items at our homeworld which was called Geae, people there began to trust each other less and less and accuse each other for the loss and some did blame our ancestors but they had no proof and soon battles between people started which broke out into small skirmishes until all out war...many lives were lost and much knowledge was also lost...While that was going on we were able to use the mana crystals to help form what is now called the ley lines."

Vlad said "While the homeworld was fighting each other they broke contact with us and for a time we were able to survive mostly with the ley lines but soon learned the ley lines were not self sustaining. As we used the magic they had they could absorb some of it back into the crystals but eventually we would have to recharge them and we were also able to add more and more ley lines around the world as our population grew...but unfortinately our population grew larger then our ability to keep the ley lines charged and so more and more children were being born squibs and then muggles."

Apex said "So you see, all that talk about blood purity that was sprouted by Voldemort and Grindelwald was a bunch of shit. It had nothing to do with blood purity but more of where they lived and what thier enviroment is like as well as what type of food thier parents ate before they concieved or while thier mothers were pregnant. The ICW has been growing food that is saturated with magic and letting it slowly slip into the muggle world to help increase the number of births of muggleborns so that they can come to magicals schools like Hogwarts which is located on ley lines and learn to use magic and the mana crystals that are under Hogwarts would absorb the magic the use and help to recharge the ley lines...but the problem is many families have learned to use the ley lines for thier own purposes and have helped drain magic from the ley lines quicker then it can refill so we have to keep sneaking back into Geae and help recharge the mana crystals."

Apex shook his head and said "But the problem is that a portal between Geae and Earth is only possible by a creature called a grey minion. The minions were created by families back in Geae who aided us against those in power in Geae. Minions are similiar to house elves but also vastly different and deadly. The grey minions were the elite class of minions...These grey minions are basically immortal because they are tied to the family magic of those who made them. When the family magic died out so did the grey minions...There is only one grey minion left in the world. His name is Gnarl and he's a minion bound to the Potter family."

Many eyes widen at this and Vlad said "That's why Gringott's was willing to goto war against the Ministry of magic and made the statement around the world when they closed thier bank for a week. Ragnok, leader of the Goblin nation is a consultant to the ICW security council and knew the truth about magic and knows how important the Potter family is now to our world. When you placed Harry Potter on the steps of his muggle aunts house Dumbledore, a team from the ICW had been watching her home to see if the Potters showed up because we needed thier help after the last Overlord died in 1979. When you left Harry the team took him and brought him to the security council and we began to raise him with the help from several other trusted leaders around the world who knows how important the Overlord is to our future."

Minister Fudge asked with a confused look on his face "What's an Overlord."

Vlad smirked and said "Basically it's Geae name for the Head of the House though it's also has other meaning you don't need to worry about or have the security clearance to know. In fact not even Dumbledore has the clearance needed to know everything. Just know that Harry Potter is the last Overlord in the world and the entire fate of our world rest on his shoulders. If he fails then magic in our world will be lost probably forever since the Geae has forgotten about us because the war that was started all those years ago has caused Geae to revert to what muggles would consider mid-evil times or the dark ages. There are thousands of factions all over Geae that's constantly fighting for control of the planet. This actually works in our favor and is also the reason we use the name Overlord for people like Harry Potter."

Apex said "Basically, with so many warring factions, Overlords have been able to get followers among those who live in Geae to join them and take over parts of the world trying to become the ruler of Geae or the Lord in charge of the Entire planet. It's worked a few times for a few years. Merlin himself was an Overlord and was able to build a kingdom in Geae which is commonly referred to as Avalon. The sister kingdom of Camelot which is what the squib son of Merlin kingdom was called."

Professor McGonagall said "Surely you don't expect Mr. Potter to be able to take over an entire planet at 11 years old."

Apex looked at her and said "What choice do we have. Didn't you hear my apprentice earlier. If we do not do something then we will have a cascade failure of the ley lines. It will start with the 3 ley lines under Hogwarts. Once these 3 are nearly out of magic they will begin to drain the other ley lines of thier magic to try which will drain them faster which will cause them to drain all the ley lines that are connected to them which will continue until every ley line in the world collapses. We are looking at the total extinction of the magical ley lines within 5 years and the death of magic in our world with 30 years. If the ley lines collapse there is no way we will be able to create new ones or restore them...so Professor McGonagall, what choice do we have. Death of magic or the possible death of one boy whose been trained for years to fight and survive in a hostile enviroment, one whose been trained as a soldier and who has already faced and dealt death. What's the words Albus is famous for. What's the greater good. The needs of the many, or the few, or the one."

Vlad said "Professor, what you need to understand is that what we do now is not out of fear or hatred...it is done because there is no other way...and it is done in the name of the many lives we are failing." with a sad look on his face.

Apex took a deep breath and said "Harry is like a brother to me Professor. Since the age of 5 when we first met he and I have trained, fought, helped, played, and pushed each other to be the best we could be, each knowing the fate the future had for us...You've seen a sample of what I could do when I threatened both Malfoy idiots...While I am strong, Harry is at a level even more then that. You know what the Merlin Index is, right."

Minerva said "Yes, it's the scale that tells how much magic a person has."

Apex asked "And do you happen to know your index."

Minerva said "Last time I checked it was 747."

Apex said "I have an index of 1322. Harry currently has an index of 1740."

Several shouts of "WHAT." came from the adults in the room.

Apex said "That's right. Harry is so powerful magically already that it's nearly impossible for him to use a wand. One of the few spells he can do with a wand is the Patronus charm because it's such a powerful spell and takes so much magic to use it...but he can do it wandlessly also. He can produce three Patronus at the same time. I can make two but it's not easy. Harry can produce 3 solid Patronus and still not be out of magic...and he's only 13 years old."

Dumbledore said "13."

Vlad said "Time tuner Albus. We used a time tuner to get him more training time before he had to come here...You have to admit that your school isn't going to be able to teach him much if anything with him being that powerful and not able to use a wand for most spells since nearly your entire education is built around wand waving."

Dumbledore frowned and said "You trained him as a battle mage."

Vlad said "It wasn't just me. He trained a year with the goblins on earth based magic as well as weapon training, a year with the dwarfs on fire training and weapon training, a year with the Flamells learning Alchemy, a year with the Lord Draku learning blood magic, magical creatures, and combat training. He had other training that I am forbidden from speaking about as well. He trained with me the most though and he always had 3 months breaks between teachers and 3 hours a day 6 days a week where he could be just a child and the 7th day was a free day where he could do anything he wished. The training was tough but he was also allowed childhood where he played with others his age and created bonds with people he contacts at least once every month. No, while I am saddened that we had to push him as hard as we did to get him strong enough to face his fate, I can say that he came out of it strong, physically, mentally, and emotionally."

Dumbledore frowned and said "Is there any risk to the lives of the children here by him coming here."

Vlad said "There is always danger in life Albus...but there is also a great chance for learning and experience as well. There will be plants brought here from Geae, some that have either gone extinct here or never brought here that can be grown and studied by the students. There is also the possibility of new magical creatures being brought here to be studied and learned about. Just that alone will open up new chances of learning for potions. Harry will also be trying to learn magic from Geae and he can bring it here and teach it. There is also the chance for some of your students to actually goto Geae in the near future if things go like we hope though that will be more dangerous and the students will have to be taught self defense with weapons and combat magic before they are allowed to join Harry...that is where Apex here will come in. Apex will be staying not only to help Harry but also to teach any student who might like a chance to visit magics homeworld. Training is not a garuntee since you will have to have Harry's approval but it is possible."

Apex said "And before any of you ladies think about falling for me you should know that I am already betrothed to a lovely lady who I have known many years and will happily marry who also loves me so there is no chance for any of you to seduce me."

Fudge said "Enough of this, where is Harry Potter."

Apex smirked and said "If I know Harry, right now I would say he is tearing up the night sky. Harry loves many things in life but he has a few things he is passionate about, flying is one of them. That's why his animagus form is a bird."

McGonagall gasped and said "He's already an animagus."

Apex said "Yes."

Just then a screech noise was heard and Vlad turned and said "Ah, speak of the devil." as he saw an eagle fly into the room.

The eagle flew toward Apex who held up his arm which was covered by the robe.

The eagle landed on Apex arm before he looked at Apex and Apex said "Have a good flight Harry."

The eagle jumped off Apex arm and flew into the air a moment before it began to shimmer and took the shape of a male figure wearing skin tight black dragon hide leather pants and a black dragon hide leather sleeveless vest wearing.

The figure stood at 5'9 and had the sleek body of a track runner who had easy to see muscles but were not so bulky that they would restrict movement which caused several girls in the room to begin drinking in the sight of him which caused them to begin to shift slightly in thier seat before they felt the figures magic that caused a few girls to give accidental moans.

The figure had straight black hair with two red streaks flowing through it and green eyes that glowed with power.

Vlad said "You look relaxed Harry. So what do you think of Hogwarts."

The figure now identified as Harry said "It was a refreshing flight. The view from the lake looking at the castle as it was illuminated with the moon rising over it was breath taking. Easily one of the most majestic views I have seen. Right up there with looking at Lord Draku castle in the mountains."

Vlad said "I'll be sure to pass on the complement to Lord Draku when I speak with him again."

Harry said "No need. He already knows what I think of the view of his castle. It's one of the few times I would actually fly in my human form alongside him and the vampire coven he is the head of."

Many gasp were heard in the room and McGonagall said "Vampires. You let him stay in the company of..."

Harry interupted her and said "Do not insult my friends lady. I don't care who you are but I know the real truth about Vampires and Werewolves. Did you know that Vampires and Werewolves were first created when a pair of brothers whose animagus forms were a pair of maggots tried to change thier animagis form. One wanted to be a wolf and the other a bat. They succeeded in changing thier forms but not in the way they had wished. They turned themselves into the first vampire and werewolf but the instincts from the maggots along with the insticts of the vampire and werewolf were to much for them causing them to become nothing more then wild animals. I admit there are evil vampires and werewolves in the world but there are also those who try to destroy the evil ones and find a cure for the disease they were infected with that was spread. Lord Draku is close to 600 years old and has not turned one person in all those 600 years into a vampire except his wife who begged him to change her so that they could stay together and he would not be forced to live all those years alone. Each of the vampires that are in his coven where changed by evil vampires and Draku came to them to help them with what was forced on them where none of them have changed anyone and have helped Draku hunt down and kill all the evil vampires who go around feeding on and changing others without the person permission."

A brown hair girl from the Gryffindore table asked "Then how do they live if they need blood if they don't feed on humans."

Harry looked at her and said "Might I ask what your name is before I answer your question. My name is Harrison James Potter but everyone calls me Harry."

The girl said "Hermione Jane Granger."

Harry blinked and looked at Vlad and asked "Granger."

Vlad seeing the questioning look on Harry's face said "Your probably thinking about the DawGranger family. It's possible she might be a decendant of that family but I couldn't say for sure. Some of our archives were destroyed durring World War 1 and 2."

Hermione said "You think I might have magical relations." in a questioning tone.

Harry shrugged and said "It's possible. Don't forget there have been two major wars in this area over the last hundred years so it's possible parents tried to protect their children by putting magical blocks on thier children cores and placed them in muggle homes and orphanages to try to hide them from those who would tried to kill them simply because of the actions of thier family. There is also the fact sometimes people are placed in arrange marriages by thier parents and fall in love with someone else who thier parents don't approve of and run off to be with them and hide in the muggle world turning thier back on thier magical family in some cases. You would be suprised to learn how many children thought they were muggleborn over the years but turned out to be actually related to a magical family that was still going strong and thriving...but like Vlad said, it would be difficult to tell since some of the ICW records were destroyed durring the war."

Hermione asked "Is there anyway to find out."

Harry looked up at Vlad who said "There is a way Ms. Granger but think about this. If say your grandmother was betrothed to someone and fled into the muggle world and then you come here and try to reclaim what she might or might not have had then you would then be forced to fulfill the contract your grandmother ran away from. It may not have been a magical debt. It could be your grandfather who fled into the muggle world because of a debt and if there was you would have to pay the debt off...Sometimes being ignorant of your family past is a good thing...Harry, may I use your heritage as an example."

Harry shrugged and said "Doesn't matter to me. I'm my own person. Not my ancestor."

Vlad said "Thank you Harry. Now I'm sure many of you who have studied family geneology know that the Potters are decendents of the Peverell and the Gryffindore line. In fact the Potter and Longbottoms are the last decendants of Gryffindore. Now Harry's grandmother on his father side was named Dorea Black. The Black family are the last decendants of Helga Hufflepuff. In 1980 when Regalus Black, the heir of House Black died, his brother Sirius Black had been disinherited. At the time the closest living male of Black blood was James Potter who became the new head of House Black. Now this is pretty common knowledge to anyone who checked public records...but what is not common knowledge is that Harry's mother Lily, was not a muggleborn witch."

At this many eyes widen and looked at Harry in shock.

Harry shrugged and said "Go ahead and tell them everything. I don't mind."

Vlad nods and said "Lily's mother is a witch named Muriel Prewett who is the aunt of Molly Weasley nee Prewett. Muriel agreed to a line continuation contract with a man named Morfin Gaunt. The Guant family were the last decendants of Salazar Slytherin."

Several gasp went through the room and people looked at Harry in shock and Harry said "For those of you who haven't realised it yet, Morfin gaunt was also the grandfather of the man who would later rename himself Lord Voldemort. My mother Lily and Voldemort were in fact first cousins though neither knew it because Morfin Gaunt died before my mother was born since he was an old man and Muriel Prewitt placed my mother in a muggle orphanage because she didn't want a child, only the Slytherin family heirloom that Morfin promissed her as payment for the contract. My mother was adopted by the Evans family as a baby and the rest is history until you get to the night Voldemort killed my mother and tried to kill me. What we figure happened is that Voldemort did so many rituals that one of them cost him the ability to have children and since I was the last Slytherin decendant able to continue our family line, Slytherin family magic reacted in order to protect itself and yes, magic is alive."

Vlad said "We have discovered that if a family has several generations of it's members working toward certian type of magic that thier decendants get a bonus when it comes to those type of magic. You all saw Harry is an animagus. One of the youngest in the world. The reason he is able to do that at such a young age is because nearly every male member of his family has been an animagus. The Black Family females are known for being metamorphs. The reason is they have used thier magic over the years to alter the way they look because of thier vanity. Now here's a little history that is going to shock the hell out of you but I want you all to think about something. Why is it the symbol for a healer always has a snake on it."

Harry smirked and said "The Slytherin family magic from before the age of Salazar to about 250 years ago was all known for being healers. 250 years ago one of Slytherins son was being chased by the ministers daughter and she used a love potion on him to get him to sleep with her and get her pregnant as her attempt to trap him into marrying her. He broke free and denied her and the child so the Minister at the time began a campaign of destroying the Slytherin family reputation. Don't believe me, leave Brittian and start looking up the Slytherin family ancestors. You will find that up till 250 years ago the Slytherin family was looked at with pride and respect for being healers and scholors but here in England they are looked at as dark and evil and that was even before Voldemort. History is written by the victor in the blood of the innocent. Look at my mother. She was considered one of the brightest witches to attend Hogwarts in over 300 years according to some and no one would dare say she was dark or evil when they thought of her as a muggleborn...but now that you know she's a decendant of Slytherin I'm sure some of you have already started to think of her and me both as being evil and dark. Don't deny it, I can tell. Doesn't matter if I am a decendant of Hufflepuff and Gryffindore as well."

Shaking his head Harry said "That's why you should not worry about who your ancestors are Hermione Granger. By learning who your ancestors are then you are also going to find yourself judged by thier actions no matter what good or evil you do in your life. They won't see you for yourself, only your family name. That's also one of the main reasons why Voldemort became who he was. You want to know what Voldemort's real name was."

Hermione asked "What."

Harry said "His real name was Tom Marvolo Riddle named after his father and grandfather. His father was a rich muggle and when he was a student here in the 1940's he was headboy and had the highest great point average as well as the highest OWLS and NEWTS since Albus Dumbledore but when he graduated from Hogwarts he got a job at a pawn shop in Knockturn Ally because he couldn't get a job anywhere else. Even Dumbledore refused him a job when he came here and applied for the job of Defense Against the Dark arts all because his father was a muggle. Once he discovered his connection to Slytherin though and rearranged the letters of his name to spell out the words I am Lord Voldemort all the doors that were closed to him before suddenly opened up but Voldemort remembered the scorn and hate he was targetted by those who looked down on him because of his birth name and his blood status."

Harry waved his hand and a goblet floated off the table toward Harry who began to sip it and said "After World War 2 many of the magical jobs that had been available before WW2 had been destroyed by the war so there was so few jobs available for anyone and tensions between those who were applying for the jobs increased. Voldemort used that tension for himself to get revenge on those who scorned him by telling the purebloods that he would make sure that purebloods were taken care of first. Dumbledore was pushing for equality for all. The purebloods seeing Dumbledore using his influence joined Voldemort because of his ancestory which they hoped to use to push against Dumbledore's reputation as the defeater of Grindelwald and Voldemort had them give him books, money, relics, and slowly he began to milk the purebloods for everything they had making it where they had less resources to divert to the economy to try and create new jobs to relieve the tension."

Vlad said "As such the tension grew to the point of violence and since the two people who had been the figurehead of each movement were Dumbledore and Voldemort those who supported them looked to them to solve the problem and Voldemort moved to get his revenge against Dumbledore and the Ministry for denying him what he felt he had earned not only because of his heritage but also because of how he did at Hogwarts. The rest you can say is history. The blood war that killed so many including Harry's parents was nothing more then one mans goal of getting revenge on Dumbledore, the Ministry, as well as the pureblood who looked down on him because of who his father was."

Harry said "The sad thing is if all those pureblood families who gave thier money and resources to Voldemort had actually used thier brains and started new jobs to relieve the tension on the economy they would have made themselves even richer then before and earned famed and prestige for thier family. As proof of what I'm saying I'll tell you a little fact about my own finances. I took out 1000 galleons from my family vault and used it to help start a business in another country for a student who graduated from his magical school with good grades and wanted to start his own business. That business brings me in 1000 galleons a week in profit. I've taken those galleons and reinvested them in other businesses in different parts of the world and have over 400 new business that I have started with over 700 employee's that are making me over a million galleons every 3 months. Think about that. A simple 1000 galleon investment has a return of a million galleons every 3 months in less then 6 years and I didn't kill a single person or do anything but help a few people start up thier own business. I checked public records and every year there are at least 5 people who graduate from Hogwarts who wants to start thier own business. Has been for the last 300 years. All those chances, lost." as he shook his head.

Apex said "3 million. I thought you were up to 4 last time you and I talked."

Harry looked at Apex and said "I was but I made an agreement with Draku. I needed a legal way to start recieving rare and restricted magical ingredients. Draku gave me part ownership in one of his potion supply companies that makes it where I have legal access to the ingrediants I need in exchange for a percentage of a few companies that I owned. It cost me a million in short term profit but it will save me millions in long term expenses. By having part ownership in that company I can get the items at 10 percent higher then cost instead of the usal 30 the general populus has to pay. If I had to go through illegal channels to get the supplies it would cost me at least double that."

Harry turned back to Hermione and said "Forgive my rudeness of not answering your earlier question about the blood. Did you know the muggle red cross was actually developed to help vampires get the blood they need so they won't have to feed on humans. Vampires make huge donations of money to the red cross who uses that money to by medical supplies to help victims of natural disasters around the world. In exchange the red cross test all blood that is donated to them by muggles and gives 10 percent of it to the vampires who donate to thier organization. As such there is no need for vampires to attack humans and creating more vampires. Those vampires who go out and attack humans and turn them into vampires against thier wills are considered criminals and hunted down by the Vampire government and killed. Humans help vampire with thier need for blood and vampires help humans live longer by helping the sick or injured as well as working on research to help them live longer, healthier, and happy lives. Don't let the actions of a few blind you. Every species, race, and gender has thier share of good and evil."

Hermione looked stunned as did several others and Dumbledore looked at Vlad and said "I didn't know about the vampire connection to the red cross. Why wasn't I informed about this"

Vlad said "Dumbledore...you maybe the head of the ICW but that does not mean you know everything the ICW does or is involved in or entitled to know about. I'm going to tell you something that is going to shock you but your not going to be the head of the ICW for much longer."

Many people who heard this looked shocked and Dumbledore said "What do you mean." with narrowed eyes.

Vlad looked at Dumbledore and said "The ICW knows about the Horcruxes that
