Eventually the days passed quickly and soon everyone was ready to get back to school. They heard from Sirius and Amelia that everyone was looking for Harry. Then the fact that Albus tried to attack Sirius in the Minister's office and when it came down keeping him in jail it seemed that he had to many people's ears and was able to leave jail and go back to the school. Even if the trail is only 10 days away thats plenty of time.

Harry and the crew actually just porkeyed to Hogsmeade ahead of the train. The parents also were there since they all wanted to spend the last day they could with their kids before the school year started again. When everyone landed at the portkey area. An alarm went off since not a government portkey. Which Amelia just silenced with a wave of her wand. Everyone was just finishing saying goodbye when the first carriages showed up. Harry looked at the carriages and soon walked over to the one in front. Some of the parents hitched their breaths as they saw him petting the Thestrals that pulled it. The rest of the friends were confused as to what was going on. Sirius was the one who spoke in a hushed tone hoping Harry did not hear."I can't believe I forgot he would see these creatures. To you kids what pulls the carriages is Thestrals. They are considered omens of death to most wizards in Britain. Since they look like semi-skeletal horse with dragon wings. They are carnivores as well so maybe that's why they have the death omen put to their names. Which for the most part is a sad thing, they are very loyal to those that gain their trust. The only way you can see them is if you witness a death. They are also very skittish and might attack if to many people get close to them."

The girls now were looking at Harry with a bit of concern. He witnessed two deaths in a matter of seconds. The first was his own mother who died to protect him. While the second one was the one who killed her and then tried to kill him right after. The girls wanted to rush to him but a skittish monster that is invisible to most people. Harry turned to everyone and the look in his eyes told them all what they hoped had not happened. He heard what Sirius had said. Before anyone could say anything to him they heard Hagrid's loud booming voice."Who are you? What are you doing here your not a student here?" When Harry turned to the man and he saw the glowing eye of Harry. Hagrid instantly knew who he was talking to those eyes are unforgettable since they were the death spell in colour. The style of his clothes was confusing him as if Harry was being dark or something. He saw the vambraces and figured the worst happened.

Harry simply got in the carriage and shut the door. Hagrid was confused as to why he acted like he did. He looked to the others and everyone shook their heads. The girls soon came up to the carriage, Daphne opened the door and was shocked. Harry expanded it and made it seem like the living room in the castle the one where they spent the break. There was even a fireplace to keep the carriage warm. Harry looked at the door and saw the two guys near the parents."Well are you going to join us in here. There is room and it beats waiting in the cold for the train." It seemed that was all the two needed and sure enough they were in the carriage enjoying the heat. The parents stared wide eyed as they saw what he did. They never thought of that when going to school. They suffered a lot of cold days in those carriages. Especially since they normally barely kept out the cold.

Sirius leaned his head in and asked Harry."So I am curious if there is any room for us before we leave and get out of the snow. Can you do that as a favour to us parents." Harry smirked before telling him like a goblin."Well yes you can, but there is always a price for a favour such as this." Now Sirius frowned but nodded his head. Harry motioned to everyone in the carriage and simple put it out there."You will train them in the ways of Animagus. When they discover their forms through the normal means. You will register them all with the IWC not with the council. Since that is not a private list and anyone can look at it. Do you understand me, Sirius Black?" Sirius was now really conflicted especially with all the parents only feet behind him. He could feel the glares at his head or the anger from a certain head of the DMLE. Some were for even thinking of the idea of doing it. The other was cause he better do it since the wind was picking up and it was getting colder. So he better agree or be very sore. Either way he is most likely in for a bunch of pain. He sighed before giving a slight nod. He then helped some of the single women in then got in himself while the husbands did their job.

Amelia was the last one helped into the carriage and she instantly smacked Sirius on the back of the head before starting to yell at him."What do you mean you will help them? You are not a Animagus either so how can you help them? Who do you think you are?"

Sirius knew he had to give it up and soon transformed right were he was. Soon a big black dog with red eyes and some black smoke from the mouth was standing there. The parents would of panicked if they would of seen the grimm before his transformation. Amelia was shocked but was turning red with anger. It seemed her anger was about to rage before Harry's calm voice broke the silence and even calmed her."Amelia don't my father, him and Peter were once unregistered. They all achieved the transformation in their 4th year. They did this all for one reason and only one reason. Their friend Remus Lupin, who is a werewolf since he was 4 I believe if I remember correctly. Also I believe Sirius is also registered with the IWC since leaving the school." This shocked them all since they all knew the man growing up and shook themselves as to how they didn't notice he was one or how they all disappeared for the three days.

This also shocked them into silence and acceptance of the deal. They knew having the animal forms was smart. Since most times people forget to look for them or if they are flying animals they can just fly away as well. The group stayed silent for another hour or so before they heard Hagrid knock on the door. Sirius returned to normal and opened the door. Hagrid looked inside then told them all while shocked at the state of the carriage."Hey folks just letting you know, the train is about ten minutes out. I recommend you change into your school clothes. Also the parents should leave before the train comes. Wait a second who did this it's amazing. I figure Professor Mcgonagall would have a hard time doing this. I will bring this up and expect a lot of points from it. Maybe it can be done to them all and make it better for the students."

The students looked to Harry who just shrugged since he really only did this to for fun. He wasn't really one to worry about points. Hell he focused on his studies and protecting everyone he can, well anyone who needs it. Even if the student is a 7th year Harry would protect them without a second thought. This caused him to be sought after from almost every girl. Harry knew though who mattered to him and stayed with them. He has developed some tender friendships of course not nearly like the ones he has with the people in the carriage of course. The parents and kids all said goodbye and soon the parents left. Sirius handed him a mirror and told him to say his name in it and he will be able to talk to him. Since this had a partner and Sirius always kept it on his person. The kids soon were separated by partitions one for everyone. Which were black so no one could spy on the others. Although no one would since it be trouble and painful. Even if some of the girls hoped Harry would still look.

Everyone seemed to change for the most part except for Harry. It seemed that he was being a bit rebellious. All he did was throw on the outer robe, which was supposed to cover arms and legs and match the under robes. Every time they see him in that it brings them to blushing deep future thoughts. Harry looked out the window and watched as the train made its way closer to the station. He frowned as he thought of the professors that were watching him. The meddler and DADA professor disturbed him and knew he had to deal with that. He was shocked when a acoustic guitar was put in his hands. He was shocked that his was hidden in a pocket but noticed something though. It was not his but one that was well good enough to play on. Harry sighed before tuning the instrument which didn't take long. He looked at everyone, they all looked excited and he knew there was no way to get out of it. He slowly started to play a song he had once heard on the radio.

Nothing Else Matters
By Metallica

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words, I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close, no matter how far
It couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

I never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words, I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know, yeah, yeah

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No, nothing else matters

Harry looked at everyone as he finished the song. Like his other ones he played it pushed his girlfriends to the limit. He put the guitar down and hugged Vanessa and Thellith who where sitting beside him. It seemed the girls were taking turns being beside him. Harry also noticed the students outside were looking at the carriage with shock and awe. He was now realizing that it happened once again as if he was cursed with that. He looked to Tracey who for some reason had her wand out. He knew instantly who did and just nodded to her. He wasn't worried anymore, it seemed people were still shocked by his talent and sure enough it made it entertaining since the magical world never really had much for music. Besides the Weird Sisters there was not much for music that the magical world listen to.

Since most students were now in the carriages after his performance the carriages headed to the castle. Harry was curious as to how it would turn out for the rest of the year. Harry knew they did not have to wear the robes all the time which was a good thing. He knew it was only for major feasts and classes. They could be wearing anything underneath the outrobes and be fine for the classes. So that is all Harry did was thrown the black robe on. After the ten minute ride to the school everyone left and Harry canceled the charms on the carriage. Harry lagged behind because he had said goodbye to the Thestrals that pulled the carriage. He gave them some pats and nuzzled the darker creatures. The way he smiled it seemed they like it to his friends.

Harry looked to his friends and smiled again and caught up to them with ease. They noticed it seemed as if he floated as he walked like his feet never touched the ground. They all soon walked into the castle and headed to the Grand Hall. It was close to supper which was perfect since it was just before noon when they left the Potter Castle. They were not the first ones in since there was quite a few people who stayed over the holidays. Which surprised them it seemed near 40 percent of the school did. This puzzled Harry as to the reason why. Vanessa answered his hidden question."Most of the students that stayed here are actually are orphans from the last war. Or were abandoned by their parents due to being magical. So they don't like to go back to the orphanages where they live."

This caused a sting to his heart and knew instantly, he had to do something for these students. Maybe a true place where any magical students can go anytime and feel safe. The potter castle here in Britain had 50 rooms so there was that. Plus he could get extensions put on and make the area safe for any kids. If that did not work he could buy land and set it up there and make it safe, even more safe than Hogwarts should've been. He had a mirror conversation to have later. It seemed that there was something the dogfather had to do soon.

He looked around and noticed the headmaster still had some bandages on his head chest and neck. He was curious as to why it was taking so long to heal. He noticed the man was glaring right at him. As if he was blaming him for his problems. Harry of course kept his word to Dante and kept the hammer on his hip. This of course gained some looks from people. Some of the professors looked ready to say something. Yet the look of Harry caused them all to not say anything. It was either the braces the glowing slitted eye or maybe his size. Or maybe it was a mix of all three if not all three.

That was till Harry sat down and put his elbows up and the vambraces were seen with some red wraps seen near the bottom of them, an new addition to the new look. Which actually Hermione told him to do for some reason. Some people were confused by this but it seemed madam Pomfrey was worried about the boy. She started to rise and go and inspect the boy. But Albus kept her at the table with a quick command. He had whispered it to her and she frowned but nodded. She looked back to Harry who did a very subtle wink to the healer. She seemed to relaxing at seeing the wink. Albus though didn't see it and was worried his weapon was now a cripple. Sure magic gloves might help but the person uses so much magic to make it work like normal it was hard to do anything else. He looked to the Longbottom boy and he sighed he was disappointed at how the boy turned out. He knew he had only one option, it had to be Harry. It was always going to be Harry Potter.

A few students seeing Harry could not believe it was him. Really the only thing that gave it away was the fact of who was hanging around him. Especially since he looked like a full grown wizard. Or the glowing green eye that reminded them of a snake. Everyone did notice the change of shape but shrugged it off. He did have a snake familiar so getting some traits was well documented from old stories. The vambraces shocked everyone and the hair style. It was so odd and different some sneered at it while some thought it was cool and suited him. Some of the older had the same thoughts as the school healer. Ron saw him and sneered till Harry looked him dead in the eye, it seemed like the slitted pupil shrunk and grew big again. The green glow was unnerving and made him shiver from too long eye contact eventually turning away. Not knowing that the sight will plague him for the rest of his life.

Harry was pissed as he locked eyes with the ginger boy. He was suppose to be in jail till the trail and yet here he was at the school. He glared at the boy till the ginger looked away which had a shiver to it. He smirked and waited for the rest of the school to come in. It seemed everyone had to stop and stare for a couple seconds. He shrugged since he knew he would get this reaction. He just focused on his friends and others in the immediate area. The team soon joined them and the team expressed concerns about him and the vambraces which all he just told them they won't have to worry he even has a better broom than the Nimbus. This shocked them and asked if he had gotten the Firebolt that was not suppose to come out for 2 years. Everyone heard about it but haven't seen one. Since the company was being very quiet about it so far.

Everyone was simply confused and told his team they will find out at practice when it restarts. Roger Davies still asked the question."Harry not to be rude, but how will you play with those? Aren't they really to cover some type of injury?" Harry's eye sparked and he turned Daphne."Can you help me. They need to see this?" She seems to understand and smirked small enough to be unseen. She grabs both gauntlets and pulls them off. Everyone gasped as his arms seemed to end in stumps. Harry looked at them and explained."This is what happens when you get ambushed by a very angry mother Nundu and her brand new baby. A group of friends I made helped me recover, unfortunately by then my hands were too far gone to be saved. They made these and when connected to my arms they connect to my magic and work well. The vambraces also allow me to use a wand and my staff. They actually require no magic to use or bend the fingers." Everyone was shocked that Harry ran into a Nundu and then someone was able to help him by replacing his hands.

The entire school seemed to settle down and wanted to listen to what happened. There was nothing that could describe what they heard. The respect for Harry was spreading more though the school. He decided to come back where he might struggle or be bullied for it. Harry could see where the school thoughts were going. By this time the girls put it back on. He whispered to himself 'Ferrum Venti' he then slashed the table with the vambraces. To the schools shock and awe, the table was now slashed and had 5 deep cuts right through the table. After a second of the table standing it soon fell. Which thankfully no food was on the table yet, so there was nothing to fall to the ground. Everyone backed away from the table in shock. No one realized he used the magic to do the damage. Harry sighed and brought out dreadnought, he pointed and the table soon repaired to where it looked normal. Some of the teachers and students just shook their heads, they all forgot who they were curious about, if anything Harry wasn't an normal 11 year old first year.

Albus was sitting at the table with a deep frown etched on his face. He saw the damage from the Nundu and was confused of the material the vambraces were made of. He hadn't seen it and his alchemist mind was coming out. He wanted to study it but there was no way he could. Harry has stopped him at every turn to where he was now playing catch up to an 11 year old. This is not what he wanted, he did smile at when Harry slashed the table expecting some damage to the vambraces. In which he could find and study, yet he was shocked to the core. He watched as the vambraces went through the table as if the table was made of butter or as if Harry struck air even. Then Harry had the balls to repair the table like nothing with a simple point of his staff. The amount of spell power and magic needed to everything at once. The transfiguration skills needed is beyond a first year. He growled and glared at the boy who he hated with a passion. He did not notice that most of the staff was now glaring at the man. It seemed they all heard him and did not approve, they were after all in Harry's corner after Minerva talked to them all.

Everyone seemed to figure the excitement was over. Most of the Slytherin house hold did not notice that Thellith was there and that Theodore was missing or the fact they were one and the same person. Harry did send a letter to Snape in a warning about that so he could make her transitions simple and without fanfare. She is still nervous about everything since it be different if it got out. Sure the protections help, or the fact if the vampires find out she gets hurt they will destroy who ever did so. Vampires don't like people hurting anyone with their protection. With the Dracul protection on her she was now royalty to them. Plus she is dating the head of the family. When Harry sent a message to the closest coven, they agreed to protect her even in Hogwarts. He was confused till he noticed bats following them from a distance. He was worried about them attacking students. Yet there hasn't been an attack recorded in over 300 years in western Europe. He figured that they had either blood bags or blood replenishment potions.

Albus was figuring what to do when Minerva whispered to him." Will you quiet glaring and start supper we have hungry students and staff. Plus there is nothing you can do so do your job Albus." Albus shook his head and stood up. Everyone instantly settled down as he started to speak." Welcome back to Hogwarts students. There is no new announcements at this time so I think we should just dig in and enjoy the food." He waved his hands and sure enough the food appeared. The students soon were stacking the food on their plates. The conversations of the students were going on and so was the food eating. Harry glanced to the head table and noticed Pomfrey and Flitwick were talking and seemingly looking at him. He frowned but shrugged he would let them in on the plans. Plus he had to talk to flitwick about his new broom. Considering it is a broom not released or might be super fair.

Soon everyone was done for super and soon everyone was about to leave. The group got up and was about to leave that was till Madam Pomfrey came over and almost grabbed Harry. If Daphne did not step in the way. Harry could feel it and turned to her. He raised an eyebrow at the presence of the healer. She sighed before explaining why she was there."Me and Flitwick thought it would be good to check the injuries and make sure the infection or anything else was truly taken care of." Harry stopped her and asked her. "May you, Flitwick and I talk about this in the hospital wing. This is of course is a private matter and since he is head of my house he should know this as well."

Everyone wanted to with him but knew that these situations were only for them. It was patient and healer private privileges. So everyone agreed to meet tomorrow in the courtyard or in the ravenclaw common room to those who can be there. Harry and two staff members soon where heading to the hospital room. The two staff members didn't notice that a meddler was trying to follow them. That was till a certain poltergeist came around. Peeves managed to grab his robes and sink them into the stone. This caused the man to fall flat on his face and lose control of his notice-me-not-charm. After cutting his robe clear of the stone he looked up and saw they just shut the door. He went to the door and tried to open it and was launched back from the ward on the door. Albus got mad and waved his wand and soon tried again and was blasted back once again. He growled and left the hall, all the while trying to hit Peeves with curses and hexes. While Peeves was floating around them and throwing things back at him.

Harry, Professor Flitwick and Poppy Pomfrey where now in the hospital ward alone. The three of them soon went to a bed. She pointed at it to Harry and he complied. Before she could get to the rant of the one she had planned Harry raised his hand to stop her. He soon was explaining the braces."Now before madam Pomfrey tries to take her strip of my skin. I have to confess something. There is nothing wrong with me these were gifts, from Kogan, King of the Dwarves of america. I recently returned the Arkenstone to them. In which he promised to aid me in the war that is coming. He also did what the goblins did. I am now also a brother to him as well. So the story told earlier was just to throw Dumbledore a false lead and to make him panic."

The two adults were shocked by the story and Madam Pomfrey was confused about this so called future war. Flitwick waved it off and she nodded. She still turned to Harry and asked him."Harry now that you told us the truth. I would still like to check you over. Since I am guessing you were in America and they have some different sicknesses there I suggest you stay for a while and get your potions for them." Harry almost smiled and told her."I am the Last of the Dracul line. Which is where the vampires come from. I get all the benefits of the Vampires without the need to drink blood. So I am immune to ny sickness a wizard or non-magical can get. Also thanks to that I might outlive the next ten generations. of witches. I guess Flitwick hasn't told you yet. I am not just Harry James Potter. I am officially Harry James Potter-Gryffindor-Hufflepuff-Ravenclaw-Slytherin-Le-Fey-Perverell-Dracul-Pendragon and Evans also the presumptive heir to the Black family. Especially since Sirius Black is unable to have kids and named me his heir. I am so the adoptive son to Morgana Le-fey. So no bowing or anything please your my healer and my elder."

Madam Pomfrey was almost in shock from what she just heard. All she could do was look at the 11 year old and gap like a fish out of water. Flitwick came over and shook her gently. Which shook her from the state of shock she was in. She looked closely at him and noticed the eye that was visible. The eyes that dragged anyone who looked into them. She noticed the slitted pupil and had to ask him."Um, Harry did you know that your eye's if they were red they would be exactly like Who-should-not-be-named?" Harry shrugged and said nothing. He did though take off the vambraces and showed the now unglamored hands. The wrappings were noticeable all the way up and they noticed it was red like the cloak and his headband. He flexed every finger and then unwrapped the wraps. Sure enough his hands were perfectly fine under them.

Promfrey sighed and still scanned him and noticed he was more healthy than anyone she has ever seen. She soon just shrugged it off it figuring that it was due to his blood lines. Considering all his bloodlines were actually extinct. Yet they now were all tied into one person. One who she noticed was being watched by Albus like a hawk watches a mouse. She was never a fan of the man but he was paying her more than St. Mungo's would. She has always wanted to teach a few other people to be healers. There was a few perspectives here in the school. She had her eyes on Vanessa Prince and Nymphadora Tonks, even if she was only a third year. She knew talent when she saw it, considering she comes every now and then to ask for some spells for healing minor stuff. She will have to approach them, yet for some reason she felt like she should as him."Harry what do you think if I offered Vanessa Prince and Tonks a position as apprentices to learn to be healers? I've noticed they both have the mind set for it. Also this is not just because they are close to you. I have been keeping an eye on both since the first time they came in here for some reason."

Harry looked the at the healer he raised a eyebrow at the thought she took. He saw the major benefits of it since they will be around later and he could see them anytime. Which since being in a relationship with them and Vanessa leaving might cause some issues. Now with this idea it might not happen at all. Which to be honest is the best any of them could hope for. He nodded his approval and so did Flitwick even if he was not asked. Harry added a new idea as well."Maybe I should come down here on weekends and teach you some the famous and mythical healing spells of Helga Hufflepuff? I only ask you only teach any who apprentices under you no one else not any at St. Mungo's." Both adults there were shocked he knew the spells or was willing to teach some family magic. Since most pureblood families kept it private for a reason, then again Harry wasn't a normal she could do was nod and gave a quick oath to only teach it her apprentices and no one else. Harry nodded and stood up and told them both." I know there is much to discuss and we can later, but I think it should be time for me to head to bed. Since there is school in the morning even if I'm done all theory and practical of the school I still have to attend. Plus im only 11, I need sleep and to be ready for tomorrow. Plus we can leave as well the meddler is gone from the door and is in his office from what I can feel." This again made them shake their heads it seems Harry sensing magic is beyond normal. Flitwick also now was going over his mind on what to do to make him less bored in class. But that may have to wait until a different day to figure out. For now it was time to head to his chambers and rest up for the school year. As Flitwick fell asleep he had one thought."These next few years will be interesting but also hell for headaches. Why did I get involved in this? Oh well to late, there is nothing I can do but enjoy the ride." After those thoughts the hlf goblin professor fell asleep.
