Introduction
Harry ran away when he was 7 and changed his name. He and his fellow Street Rats are magical creatures driven away from their families. Now Dumbledore needs help will Harry, his friends and wives help Dumbledore now that the Dark Lord is back?
Chapter .1.
Nicodemus raced through the roof tops of a magical street. He had been on the streets for 8 years. He had been living the life of a Street Rat.
He had run away from home because he was neglected. Ever since that day of 31st of October 1981 his life with his former family went downhill. They all changed for the worst. His caring parents became uncaring to him. His close relationship with his triplet brothers disappeared. And he didn't even get the relationship with his younger sisters.
He was a triplet his brothers were Hayden and Hayne. He also had quadruplet sisters Euphemia, Iolanthe, Dorea and Rosalina that where a year younger than him.
They had been nearly treated the same till that Halloween night when Voldemort attacked their family. Harry remember defending his brothers as his sisters where being babysat somewhere else. There was an explosion and pain before everything went blank.
Next thing he knew his brothers were being hailed hero's. As Dumbledore told his parents that Hayden and Hayne defeated Voldemort. After that he was pushed to the side. His sisters weren't treated differently, but they were spoiled as they were the first girls in the Potter family for generations.
So Nicodemus/Harry was ignored and forgotten. Besides from his Uncle Padfoot who tried to make time for him. But he couldn't do much because of James and Lily. Who always complained that Uncle Padfoot didn't spend enough time with Hayden and Hayne. And that he should spend his time with them. Every time Uncle Padfoot spent time with him he was yelled at for taking the attention off of Hayden and Hayne.
It all came to a head when he was seven when he had been attacked and found himself at a Muggle Hospital.
So he decided to Runaway. He knew nobody would care that he was gone. The only person who might care was his Uncle Sirius. When he ran he found others that were in the same situation as him. They decided to stay together and become their own family.

Harry himself didn't call himself Harry anymore. He hated his past name as it was a reminder of his crappy past. He went by Nicodemus or Zeus or Shadow or Lightning or Storm or Silvertongue. And as his creature Inheritance went he was a Draconis, Warrior/Chaos Imp, Demon, Dark Veela, Angel and a Bat Vampire.

On his left ankle was a Soulmate Tree with his soulmates names on it.
Each of them had one identical tattoo an their left wrist of a Golden Eagle Golden with Words below it saying: 'Family comes in all forms'. 'Street Rats'. That tattoo showed they were family and that they were part of the Street Rats crew.
The group of children started calling themselves Street Rats. After they had seen Aladdin as they felt Street Rats was a perfect description of them.
They all had used the help of Goblins and had been in Time Chambers learning all they could. And they had taken courses at Emrys Mystical Academy of Studies. They had done dozens of courses using the Time Chamber to do all of them and sit their OWLS, NEWTS and some Mastery's.
They were all very talented. They had promised themselves to enjoy life. So they had Gringotts do a Soulmate test and they found their soulmates and had gotten to know them over the years even though their soulmates went to Hogwarts, Durmstrang and Beauxbatons. They still kept contact.
They also had many familiars they all loved animals. They had also unlocked their Daemons. That were a reflection of their souls.
Nicodemus had learnt to deal with his disability and had gotten used to it so nobody could tell he was blind unless he told them. The only member of his past he talked to was Sirius. Sirius has found him years ago and promised to help him in anyway possible. But Nicodemus wanted to stay with his friends and the life he was now living. Sirius accepted that reluctantly but made him promise to contact him regularly. And left him saying if he or his friends were ever in trouble or needed help they could come to him.
Because Nicodemus and the others were friends of Gringotts they got their Inheritance and they got emancipated. Nicodemus took all titles from his birth but Potter. As he didn't want nothing to do with the name anymore. So he took the last names of Emrys, Le Fey, Pendragon, Romanov, Stronghold, Peverell, Gryffindor and Slytherin.
So he took a good fortune from the Potters. He got many properties too. They only lived at them if it was cold or they were sick. They preferred the life as Street Rats.
Nicodemus had also married his soulmates and so had the others. But their soulmates kept their names as to not give anything away. Anyway they only married a few weeks ago.
Nicodemus and the others had heard about all his former brothers adventures at Hogwarts and marvelled about how far the so called Great Albus Dumbledore had fallen. And how the Sheep didn't notice Dumbledore's manipulation.
Now Voldemort was back and the Sheep didn't know what do. Nicodemus and his siblings had found out Voldemort's secret. And had been hunting Horcrux's. They had destroyed the Golden Cup of Hufflepuff. The Nation was very helpful when you were friends with the, and when a forbidden piece of Magic was in one of their vaults. They also had a lead on another which they would be dealing with soon.
They had gotten to meet Voldemort first hand. Nicodemus and his friends had responded to Nicodemus's soulmate Cedric's call for aid. They managed to save his life. And get Nicodemus's former brothers back to safety.
But the result of that was it was revealed that Nicodemus was the Boy-Who-Lived. Not Hayden and Hayne. Nicodemus snickered at that when it was reported in the Prophet. Now Nicodemus hopes they were thinking on their sins.
Nicodemus had heard from his Uncle Sirius that Dumbledore was looking for him. But Nicodemus wasn't going to make it easy on the fried chicken club. He wanted his fun first.
So now he jumped across rooftops with his Daemon Stellamaria. He had heard the Order was near trying to get him. He was going to give them a rude shock.
"There are three approaching the alley", Stellamaria tells her human
Nicodemus hums, "Lets give them a shock Stellamaria. Hedwig watch our backs but don't be seen. Sapphire stay hidden for now and be my eyes. Rajah, Morgana you two will box them in while I take the dark-skinned man hostage for information"
Hedwig was a Snow Phoenix. He had her since she was a chick. Snow Phoenixes where extremely picky about who they bound themselves too. But once they did they were loyal to their bonded for life.
Sapphire was a Sage Serpent. Sage Serpents were deadly with 80 types of poisons in their fangs they could change between them too. They only had 50 types of anti-venom in them. Their eyes could be deadly or they could paralysis or put to sleep their victims or turning them to stone using different eyelids. Sage Serpents could change their size and colour to suit their needs.
Rajah and Morgana were Shadow Panthers. Shadow Panthers where extremely loyal to their bonded human. They could jump between shadows and take others with them if necessary.
Hedwig trills and flashes out. Rajah and Morgana growl and shadow travel out.
'How do we do this Master?" Sapphire hisses
"Just watch and listen", Nicodemus says, "Just be my eyes"
Nicodemus sees through Sapphire's and Stellamaria's eyes the three people stop near the alley. He knew them as Alastor 'Mad-Eye' Moody, Auror Kingsley Shacklebolt and Sirius's cousin Nymphadora Tonks.
Nicodemus smirks licking his fangs. Oh how he was going to enjoy this. He loved messing with people with his powers and abilities.
He draws his dagger and he jumps down from the roof he was hiding on and in the same moment pulls Nymphadora into his arms with his dagger at her throat using her as a shield.
"Well look here. I suppose you were looking for someone?" Nicodemus asks smirking hiding his fangs
They jump and draw wands but are pushed into the alley by Rajah and Morgana who were growling at them.
"Let her go", Kingsley says
"Not yet. I think I like this position. Now tell me who you are looking for", Nicodemus says
"Let me go and we will tell you", Tonks says
"Not so fast. I know they will fire spells if I let you go. Your my insurance at the moment my dear Nymphadora", Nicodemus says smirking
"Don't call me Nymphadora!" Tonks growls her hair turning red
"Whatever you say Nymphadora", Nicodemus says amused
"How do you know my name anyway?" Tonks asks
"That is my Business. Now your in my territory. So what do you want?" Nicodemus asks
"We are here to talk to you Harry Potter", Moody says
Nicodemus's familiars growl at the name and Nicodemus growls.
"Never. Never call me that name. It is not me. If you want this to continue to be civil you will call me Nicodemus. Leader of the Street Rats. Otherwise we will have a problem", Nicodemus growls
"It is your name", Kingsley says
"I disowned that name 8 years ago. You can check with Gringotts. Harry Potter is Dead", Nicodemus replies, "So what does the 'Great' old Manipulator Albus 'Goat' Dumbledore send his sheep to me for?"
"Watch your tongue boy", Moody growls
"Not going to happen. Hurry up I don't have all day", Nicodemus replies
"Albus wants to talk to you. We are to take you back to headquarters", Kingsley says
"Not going to happen. I won't be going anywhere with you. I have my own responsibilities to see too", Nicodemus replies
"You don't have a choice lad", Moody growls
"Really? Your in no position to make demands", Nicodemus says casually
"How is that?" Moody growl raising his wand
Suddenly they hear a click of a gun and a woman appears out of the shadows a gun levelled at Moody's head. Kingsley also had a gun and wand at his head.
Moody, Kingsley and Tonks realised their mistake too late. Of course Harry wouldn't be alone. They had heard reports of him running with a crowd called the Street Rats. A group of 4 girls and 6 boys.
All reports say they were dangerous but only broke minor laws that they knew off. Other crimes they couldn't pin on them.
"Don't even think about cursing my brother. Or you will find out first hand what guns can do", the girl with brown hair and blue, silver and gold streaks in it says
"Speak now or we leave", one of the boys says
"Albus needs your help Har...", Kingsley starts but is cut off by growling and a shot fired near his head
He looks wide eyed at Harry who now had a smoking gun pointed at him and a knife still on Tonks's throat.
"Say that name again. And next time I won't miss", Nicodemus growls
"Fine. Are you going to come peacefully?" Moody asks
"Tell the old goat to send an owl with a message. Because I and my friends don't take kindly to being threatened", Nicodemus says
"We don't take orders from you Boy", Moody growls
"You do if you want a hope of help", Nicodemus replies smirking
"Would an owl reach you?" Tonks asks
"Yes. But be warned if any traps, portkeys, curses, spells or potions are on the letter you will not get help in anyway. So use this chance wisely. Don't do anything stupid", Nicodemus warns
"Is that understood?" one of the boys asks
"It is understood", Kingsley says gravely
"Good. Now we will leave. But if you attempt to stop or hurt us we will not give you aid. You only get one warning", Nicodemus warns
"Is that clear?" a girl asks
"Crystal", Tonks says
"You all better be worth it", Moody growls
They smirk at their ignorance.
"Why don't you ask Madam Bones otherwise known as Lady Black, if we are worth it?" Nicodemus asks smirking
They look shocked at his words.
"After all Madam Bones is your Boss isn't she Auror Shacklebolt, Auror Tonks?" a boy asks smirking
"How did you...?" Tonks asks
"We have our sources", a girl says
"Does she know your other activities?" Nicodemus asks smirking at their expression
He saw their expression thanks to his Daemon Stellamaria. He knew all his siblings were smirking too.
"What do you mean?" Kingsley asks
"Does Madam Bones know you take other orders other then hers?" One girl asks
"That doesn't matter...", Moody starts
"I am sure she would think it matters", Nicodemus states smirking
"Enough! Let us leave these sheep here brother we have places to be", the main girl says
"Quite right sister. Do give Dumbledore our warnings won't you?" Nicodemus says letting Tonks go and backing away
"Shadow travel in 3", Athena thinks to everyone
"Wait we ha...", Tonks starts
They are all shocked by the group disappearing into the shadows just as quickly and as suddenly as they had come.
"That went well", Tonks says brightly
"Bloody useless it was", Moody grumbles
Moody had to admit whoever trained those kids did it well. They hadn't even seen Potter till he had knife to Tonks throat. Then those other kids suddenly appearing and holding Muggle Weapons! Weapons on them was quite a feet. Especially the Potter kid shooting at him and missing. Moody wasn't fooled Potter had missed on purpose. The skill he had shown proved he missed on purpose.
But those kids he recognised some. He was sure the three missing Weasley's were there. Along with the Longbottom kid and the Malfoy kid but he didn't recognised the others.
They were going to have to report this whole incident to Albus. And warn him he was trending on egg shells when it came to Harry.
If Albus wasn't careful he would lose the only hope of winning this war...
Nicodemus chuckles as they appear at Emrys Keep. Where they have been going back too now that Voldemort was back. It was the safest place for all of them too be. What with him being Voldemort's number one target. Not to mention his siblings were on that hit list too after their last duel with Snake-Face. Honesty Voldemort gave snakes a bad name.
Nicodemus loved snakes they were some of his favourite animals besides Shadow Animals. But then again he had 37 familiars in 31 different species.
"That was fun", Ares says smirking flopping onto the couch
"I love it when we mess with the Order", Hades says smirking
"Did you see their faces when Nicodemus shot near their heads?" Hestia asks laughing
They all laugh at that. They loved it when people underestimated them. It always made them all laugh after they had proven idiots wrong.
"You alright Nicodemus?" Athena asks her brother
"I am fine Athena", Nicodemus replies smiling at her
"What do you think will happen now?" Propheta asks
"Dumbledore will send us an owl", Nicodemus replies
"Probably with a portkey attached to take whoever touches it directly to them", Forest says wisely
"That would be just like the old goat. He won't take Moody's advice", Hermes says
"That is just a given. But they do desperately need us", Artemis reveals
"What have you seen?" Nicodemus asks his adopted sister
"That it will be a hard road ahead. But we will still have to continue our quest to destroy the Horcrux's", Artemis replies
"Did you see where some of the others are?" Apollo asks
"Not yet. But my gift is unpredictable as you all know", Artemis replies dreamily
"We know Sis. But it is very useful", Athena replies smiling at one of her best friends
"I wonder how the Order is reacting to our threat now?" Hestia asks amused
"I don't know. But it is probably chaos", Nicodemus replies smirking knowing the order is probably in chaos now
"I would have wanted front seats to see how they reacted", Ares adds smirking
"I think we all would off", Hades says also smirking
"Agreed", everyone says laughing
They knew no mattered what happens they would always be family…
