A/N Thanks for your reviews and support. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! I hope everyone gets time with their family.

Guest: thanks for your review, my friend. As amazing of an idea as that would be I'm not big into incest fics. Despite everything that I do write that is not one of them. I would support anyone considering to write it though.

Zoran Dawn-Eclipse: thanks for your review, my friend. I'm so glad that you enjoyed the aura scene.

SkylerHollow: thanks for your review, my friend. I've been doing better. Broken collarbone has sucked the last two months but I'm clear now. Healed completely.

mizzrazz72: thanks for your review, my friend. That he will. Eventually.

DarkRavie: thanks for your review, my friend.

WhiteElfElder: thanks for your review, my friend. Unlocking his aura is only the first step. Now he has to train it to unlock his semblance. How it awakens is different for everyone. It could be stress, training, or in some cases being struck by lightning.

Harrison's POV

As soon as they were done getting ready Ozpin said, "We will be apparating to the zoo. Are you ready to go?"

Harrison was practically vibrating with excitement as he nodded. The zoo was his choice for this year. Every year they did something different for his birthday.

Last year it had been a hockey game in a muggle city. Before that, they had gone to a quidditch game.

This year's event was going to be the best yet. It was a magical zoo that even the Scammander family approved of. If what he heard was true they had helped in designing it.

They quickly made their way outside of the wards. He moved so that he was close to his father. A warm arm wrapped around his shoulders and pulled him close. Soft scent washed over him just before he felt as if he was being pulled through a tube.

Then they landed just outside of worn metal gates. Harrison could hear the sounds of animals. Excitement filled his chest at the soundest. Even at the Potter's, he loved them.

Ozpin's hand pushed him lightly forward. His father confirmed their reservation and they were allowed inside.

Their first stop was chimeras. A silvery shield stopped visitors from getting too close to the creatures. There was plenty of room for them to run in. According to the plaque that magically enhanced to light up as it was read the magizoologists also let wild game into the feeding area. This gave them the chance to hunt for themselves.

Harrison carefully reached out a hand towards the wards. The intentions behind them were clear. Protect the creatures that live within them. Stop anyone who wanted to enter without permission.

For a brief moment, they searched him. His very intentions were read by the magic. In response, his magic flared out causing the chimeras to raise their heads and stare.

His father asked gently, "What are you doing, Harrison?"

"I can feel them, dad," he answered.

"The creatures?"

"No," he denied quietly, "The wards. I can feel them."

Surprise etched itself across Ozpin's face. It was obvious the man had not been expecting that. Then again they had learned that nothing was ever quite normal when it came to his magic.

They found out that he could speak to snakes a year and a half ago. Six months after his adoption. He found a small garden snake in the backyard. It had called him a stupid human and wished for fangs so that it could bite him.

Harrison had been surprised but unafraid. He knew that it wasnt poisonous. Instead, he apologized for disturbing her and asked for her name.

Her name was Serena. She was only a few months old so she really didnt know how many people could speak to snakes.

Ozpin had come out to tell him that lunch was ready only to find him speaking to her. His father had been surprised to hear the snake tongue. It shouldn't have been surprising given the inheritance test.

Ozpin didnt understand was how he had the ability. It was nowhere in his bloodline. Lily Potter was a muggle-born and Potter's weren't related to the Slytherin line. It should not have been possible.

Whatever the reason was behind it they found with time that his magic was extremely active. Accidental magic happened weekly. When he had nightmares the room would shake with the force of his magic.

Between Sirius and Ozpin they were able to keep him mostly calm but it wasnt perfect. Training his magic had to come early.

So taekwondo was begun as were meditation exercises. Hopefully soon with his aura training beginning, he could learn basic wand magics.

Being able to sense wards and their intentions was not a rare ability. However, it was uncommon enough to surprise people when it did appear. Harrison had read about it in the library.

To become a Ward Master they had to have the ability to sense Wards and their intentions. Those that couldn't but had the strong magical abilities also needed for it became Curse Breakers.

All these thoughts were interrupted when Ozpin's eyes shifted to something over Harrison's shoulder.

A coldness that wasnt familiar to the boy seeped into the amber eyes. His father's eyes grew cold when talking about James Potter but not like this. It was as if his world had lost all the warmth in it.

Harrison turned to find a single man standing there. Others were moving in the background but they were actively avoiding this group. Almost as if they could sense danger.

The man that had caused the reaction in Ozpin was tall. Taller than James Potter but not quite as tall as Ozpin. He had white-blond hair with mismatched eyes. One was blue and the other was black. There was something eerie about those eyes. It made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.

His father pulled him back so that he stood behind Ozpin. So far neither man had gone for a wand but with the tension, it was only a matter of time.

Ozpin growled low in his throat, "What are you doing here?"

The man smiled coolly as he replied in a language Harrison didn't understand, "Ich habe dir doch gesagt, dass wir uns nicht das letzte Mal getroffen haben, Liebling."

Ozpin's hand tightened to painful levels. His father snarled, "And I told you before you left I wanted nothing to do with you. So what are you really doing here, Grindelwald?"

A/N here are the translations.

1. I told you that wouldn't be the last time we met, darling.
