Arriving in Diagon Alley the family like group walk into the main street. Severus turns to his son. "Harry, we need to visit Gringotts to get your money out of your school account that James and Lilly left you."

Putting on his aristocratic mask, "yes, Father. I am aware."

The leader of the group turns to Severus and asks "don't you need to restock you storages? And do you have the money to do that now?"

"Yes to both questions, Tom."

"Good then I will take Harry and you can go and get your thing you need from the apothecary."

"If you are sure, Tom."

"Positive." Severus nod in response and Harry has trouble keeping the smile off his face. 'This is going to be really cool. I can spend more time with Tom. I don't know why but i believe we will be great together, in a partnerships and maybe…'

Tom stears harry down the crowded streets to the only wizarding bank in the England. Walking in Harry takes notice to the ominous sign he had seen thousands of time but still brings a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach. "Lord Voldemort," said a goblin. "What can I do for you this fine day?"

"We need to gain access to the Potter school fund vault."

"Yes. Of course, Lord Voldemort. Come with me." They leave for the car to take the vault and about thirty minutes later the return to the buzzling street.

"Can we get my uniform, then wand, then books and other equipment, then a pet?" Harry looks up into the older man's eyes.

Smiling down at him, Tom replies, "sounds like a plan to me."

Walking into Madame Malkin's and older lady walks up to them. "Hello dears, here for Hogwarts?" She looks at Harry first then moves her gaze up. "T-tom? It's been a long time."

"Yes, Harry is here for Hogwarts. And yes I know it's been a long time, Madam. How have you been?"

"Good, Tom. How about yourself? Oh, and Harry stand up on the stand and stand straight." Harry gets up on the stand.

"I'm doing wonderful. Harry, stand up straight" Harry rolls his eyes but does what he's told Madam Malkin takes Harry's measurements, magically put the robes together, and puts them on and starts to have hem them.

"So, what happened to you? You disappeared years ago, no one has heard a word."

"I've been in... in hiding. You know that the Dark Lord came out soon after I went into hiding. I did that because he was trying to recruit me. I believe the dark has been repressed a long time, but I want light and dark to live in harmony. Also, I want complete separation from muggles. It's hard to do that though with muggle-borns but they shouldn't be hated. Do you have any ideas?"

"I don't know, Tom. You know why I think they're muggle-borns? I think that are muggle-borns have a squibs somewhere in their ancestry. And since we don't know when magic will show back up in the families they are to be believed as coming from muggles. All we can do stop sending them away we could take them away from their family and they show magic and put them with magical family going to build obliviate their parents yes, and replace the memories.

"Yes, that's what I thought. But, they have to be young." Tom enters into a deep thought after a little while he hears something from far away.

" Done."

" Done already?"

"Yes that'll be 20 galleons."

"Here you go. Thank you for your time."

"My pleasure. It's been good seeing you I hope to see you both soon."

" You will, it was good seeing you too." they leave. Walking down a very crowded Street, Tom takes Harry down an alleyway. "Here take these." Tom pulls out a couple of vials. "This one undoes the tracker." he hands him the vial with a blue liquid in it, "this one will allow us to speak without anyone knowing," and hands him the other viral of a clear liquid. "This one will help keep people out of your mind. Now, before you say you can do all occlumency, I already know. But, this is a backup if your defense fail." He held out the vial for him to take. "And the last one is to protect you from unknowingly ingesting potion that are used for compulsion and any offensive spells / compulsion hexes," he hands him the vial of a pink liquid and reaches in his pocket and pulled out a locket. "Where are this at all times it will help with defending against outside forces. also, it's a 14 straight to me. When you're in danger open it and it will activate by your blood and these words ' send me home' but it has to be in parseltongue. Do you understand, Harry." Harry takes the locket and hugs a man."

In a barely audible whisper, "thank you. And yes, I understand." After a few moments are longer relishing in men's sent he looks up on the big innocent eyes and asks, " why are you doing? Helping me?"

Tom kneels down and says, "because, Harry I care about you. I'm pretty sure that I love you and have since you were a baby." Tom pauses choosing his words carefully, "I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe and I would have if you had chosen the light over the dark. But all you need to know for now is that I saw you that night and I couldn't kill you Harry. I couldn't tell you for a reason because you are too young but maybe in a couple years I'll tell you." Tom pulls Harry into a hug he whispered into his ear " trust me, Harry. I won't let anything happen to you."

" I know, Tom and I already do trust you."

"Thank you. Now let's go to flourish and blotts."

"Okay, Tom." They stay like that for a few more minutes and Harry's the one to break the hug, the warm comforting. "We got to go. We still have a lot of shopping to do." Harry turns to leave with return to Ed background to look at it, "oh, and Tom… I forgive you."

Tom turns Harry completely background and pulls him into another hug, "thank you, Harry. I never expected you to forgive me." Tom let's go of Harry and says, " let's go; you do have a lot of shopping to do."

They enter into the street and walk to the next store. They go in and get what they need and leave. They head off to Ollivander's to get Harry's wand. Upon entering the store they make an old looking man. The man had white, wild hair no longer then below his ears. His face had this look about it that gave Harry the impression that this man was mad. It was almost like he had become disheveled somehow. Tom walked over and shakes the man's hand. "Mr. Ollivander, long time."

"Ahh, yes. It has been a long time right. I'm doing? Yew and Phoenix weather 13 and a 1/2 inches if I recall."

"Yes, sir; very good sir. Served me well."

" I see Mr. Prince here is ready to buy his first wand."

"Yes, he is"

"Okay, let start," Ollivander states excitedly. "Which is your wand hand?"

"My right, sir"

"Ahh. Yes of course," leaves and returns with a couple of boxes. "Willow and dragon heartstring. Give it a flick." Harry does and blows up a flowering plant. "No, no. Try unicorn hair and maple," and he shoves the wand into Harry's hand. He repeats the motion and a lamp combusts and he quickly puts down the wand. this process last for all most and hour, until Ollivander gets an idea. "Wonder... now... maybe... yes! An usual combination. Holly and Phoenix feather, nice and supple." Harry takes a wand and flicks it. A shower of sparks fly into the room. "Yes very curious, curious indeed."

" What, what is so curious?"

"Because, Harry I remember every wand I sold. It so happens that the Phoenix that gave me yours give another. What is so curious is that the one that is destined for you has a brother and that wand has killed your family."

"Mother. That killed my mother. James Potter never my father."

"Right, sorry. Your mother and James. Back to what I was saying; you're wand and Tom's wand are brothers."
