Harry Potter and the Baby
Author's Note:
Well, the fifth chapter up. I hope you enjoy it. I think this chapter will be longer than the others will.
I hope you will be happy to review the story when you're done reading.
This chapter will be hard to right to please you.
In this chapter you will learn about Secreto Isla, the Island of Magic. I got the ideas from a much older Author not on FF.net, and his name was Piers Anthony. He wrote the Xanth Series Books. I suggest it to you…
Most hear is similar to either HP or Xanth. I own nothing in this chapter. And truly this time I mean nothing.
Chapter Five
Take Action
Harry and Alex landed, Harry for once on his feet, a little shakily, but Harry straightened. He opened his eyes, and saw no one inside the office. Even Fawkes, the Phoenix, wasn't even there. He looked around, seeing all the old Headmasters and Headmistresses in the paintings snoozing at the moment. Alex giggled at the pictures.
"Okay, I guess that their eating lunch or something. Come on Alex, we're going to the Great Hall." Harry said calmly. They walked down the revolving stairs, now going down, and walked past the returning to its Guard Gargoyle. Harry turned down a corridor and then took a left down another staircase. Then going down a grand staircase, he turned left again, passing the hourglasses that held their House points when school was open.
Pushing open the large doors he walked in. Dumbledore was there, along with the rest of the teachers. They all turned when the doors opened, but dropped their jaws when they saw Harry Potter and a baby?
"MR. POTTER!" Shrieked Professor McGonagall. Professor Trelawney just fainted. Professor Snape grinned evilly, believing this the perfect excuse to Expel Harry. All the other teachers broke out in loud whispering questions to the other teachers. Professor Dumbledore grinned at him.
"Hello Harry. I was wondering when you would show up." Dumbledore exclaimed over the noise of the other teachers. Alex looked around and her eyes landed on Professor Snape.
"Grease-head!" She called out happily, giggling and waving directly at him. Snape's face grew red as Harry's face went pale. The teachers stared a second, trying to figure out what happened. Then the teachers all burst out laughing. Snape stood up.
"POTTER! I will not have that-that snotty-nosed little brat call me names that you have obviously taught her! Get that whining thing some manners!" Snape shouted. Harry glared coldly at the Potions Teacher that everyone was taken aback. Harry's black hair seemed to be being blown around by imaginary wind.
A white glow started to wrap its way around Harry and Alex's body. Snape turned white as a sheet, shocked at the level of power the boy held. Harry was then floating slightly as the glow turned golden. Dumbledore didn't even seem shocked at this little display. The other teachers though either fainted or screamed.
Snape just stared at Harry in fear.
"Apologise to the her! Apologise to the heir exceeding me as the future Queen of Secreto Isla!" Harry shouted. Only though it wasn't the Harry everyone heard. This voice was commanding and powerful. Snape stuttered but didn't apologise. Harry glared more—if it was possible—at the teacher.
"I command you to listen to the next in line King of Secreto Isla and apologise to my chosen heir! Failure to do so shall have your head severed." Harry shouted. Suddenly a sword appeared in his hands. It held rubies the size of eggs or a little larger. Floating down he held up the sword towards Snape's head. Alex giggled, seeming to think this a game. The glow disappeared, but Harry still held the sword. His eyes seemed void of knowledge of what he was doing. Dumbledore now seemed to be worried.
"Severus! Do as he says. He probably will cut off your head and won't even know what he had done till he's out of his trance." Dumbledore said in a low voice. Snape gulped and cleared his throat.
"I-I'm s-s-sorry." Snape stuttered in a cowed voice. Harry's sword flashed as the light bounced off it and Harry put it in a sheath that also appeared. Alex seemed to be happy to stick the sword handle in her mouth and drool on it. Harry then smiled at her. Soon Harry seemed to slightly jump, and a look of confusion flashed on his face.
He looked and saw that he was standing closer to Snape then he would have ever been if he were in a normal state.
"What the Bloody Hell am I doing over here?" Harry shouted out in alarm as he stepped away from the still pale Snape. Dumbledore smiled calmly at Harry as the other teachers broke into whispers again.
"Come on Harry lets get out of here." Dumbledore motioned him out of the Great Hall.

Harry and Alex were showed back up to Dumbledore's office by Dumbledore himself. The other teachers stayed in the Great Hall still talking. Alex looked all around in awe at the moving paintings and the ghosts. Some waved and came over to talk to Harry and tickle the baby. Peeves didn't play any tricks since the Headmaster was there, but he did try to see if Alex would fly or fall.
He got a scare when Harry tried to cut his head off, even if he was sort of a ghost. Harry had returned to normal when Peeves had left. They were at the Gargoyle before long. The Gargoyle didn't need a password since Dumbledore was there. It jumped out of the way and they made their way up to the office.
Opening the door Dumbledore went straight to his desk and sat. Harry followed suit, wondering why Dumbledore wasn't talking to him yet. Dumbledore took in the sight in front of him.
Harry had truly grown since last year. And he seemed to have grown more in the short time who ever had taken over him. He was now 6'7" and seemed to have broadened shoulders, even more after he had been taken over. He looked exactly like James Potter, if he didn't have green eyes and a scar. He then turned his gaze and looked at Alex.
She looked exactly like a baby image of Lily Evans-Potter if he'd ever seen one. Whenever something or someone threatened her Harry seemed to become possessed. He seemed so protective of her, as if she was his child. He had said his chosen heir. Did he want to adopt her?
"Harry. I want to know if you are planning on adopting Alexandria here." Dumbledore said with a smile. Harry jumped.
"How do you know her—never mind. I won't ask. Err… yeah. Do you think I could?" Harry asked in shock and wonder. Dumbledore smiled down at them, the sparkle in his eyes more pronounced than ever.
Harry hugged Alex to him. Dumbledore cleared his throat.
"Now, I am about to tell you something that has been kept hidden from you for years. No one in the Wizarding World, except for a few chosen people, knew about what I'm going to tell you. Now, don't interrupt me." Dumbledore said. Harry nodded in agreement and waited. Alex decided to get down and play with stuff in the office.
"Centuries ago on an island called Secreto Isla the ancestors of the House Founders lived in four separate kingdoms on one huge island. Gryffindor had the most land and was the King of the island. Slytherin was the Knight that owned the second biggest parts of the land then on each side, the damsels Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff owned equal shares of land. They lived in peace, not fighting. Gryffindor, as King, made powerful protections around the island.
"Every person there had a magical talent, and if they didn't they were allowed to stay in Secreto Isla but were more than likely shunned. The talents were different for everyone. There were all kind of Magical Creatures there that were unknown in the other world. Soon the Knight, the King, and the damsels had children. The children were sent to the other world because a really powerful Centaur had seen in the stars that the children would do many great things.
"The children were sent to families separately and not explained about their real birthplaces. Though that one Centaur came with the children, he never saw them again, though heard of their successes. He spread word to other Centaur groups of Secreto Isla and that one person was to know after one thousand years. It was I who was to learn of the Island and to bring the heirs to their Kingdoms. I was to find the Heirs and bring them to their rightful home when they came of age.
"The Heirs were to take up where their ancestors failed. When the children and the Centaur left, evil swept over Secreto Isla. It was an Evil Wizard. The King had the other three Kingdoms gather together and fight. Many died, including Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw.
"Slytherin and Gryffindor were, in the last battle, the only ones left along with the Evil Wizard. They fought side-by-side. Finally there were losing though. They did one last spell that would kill the Evil Wizard, but at a catch. They would be killed along with the Evil Wizard.
"They did the spell to save their Island. It worked and then the people there had no Kings. They kept it that way but they slowly went into disarray. People feared that another Evil Wizard might appear so they had the Centaur's, who were wiser, teach them so they could learn magic. In this world, Centaur's are against using magic.
"You are either do magic or you are magic. Centaur's truly do do magic here, even if you don't want to agree that they do. In Secreto Isla, the Centaur's might not do magic unless they are teaching or want to. If they don't need it, they don't bother with it. This is really unknown.
"From what I have gathered from my spies in Voldemort's circle, Voldemort is trying to find Secreto Isla. But the Centaur's and I are the only one's who know the precise place where the Island is. You Harry are the Gryffindor Heir, and if you adopt Alexandria the Wizard way, she will become your blood and a chosen surrogate mother's blood. Though you can wait till you meet and marry that woman. She will be the next in line Heir for the throne when you step down.
"I know the other Heirs. The Ravenclaw Heir is Hermione Granger. The Slytherin Heir is Voldemort, BUT he is only a half heir. There is a branch in the Slytherin family tree that became the Riddles and the Malfoy's. Yes, Mr. Draco Malfoy is an Heir.
"And the Hufflepuff Heir is Miss Virginia Weasley. Her brother is to come too, but as she is the Seventh Child, she is the right Heir of Hufflepuff. Ron, though I don't think anyone will believe me, is truly a Seer. And he should be a powerful one at that. His powers will show more and more if he is taken the Secreto Island.
"In October on the Death Day of your parents you are to leave with me. You all will be brought to Secreto Isla as you all are of age to do so. You shall reclaim your birthrights. That sword you hold Harry is the sword of Godric Gryffindor as you recall. It is yours by right.
"The sword of Slytherin Draco will have. The Book of Knowledge will be Hermione's. The Crossbow of Straight is Ginny's. Ron shall have the Bowl of Dreams, which holds all the Premonitions he will have. He can watch them over and over easily.
"It will also guide him to become a better Seer. They already know this, though not the fact that Draco is coming. That is all I can tell you." Dumbledore then also told of what happened with Snape and Peeves and how he seemed possessed every time. Harry seemed to think this funny though.
Dumbledore then had Harry go to the Gryffindor Common Room. Harry started up and looked around.
"Alex? Alex where are you?" Harry said, panic starting to bubble inside him. Dumbledore had a look of concern on his face. They looked at the door. It was slightly ajar. Harry jumped down the stairs, landing at the bottom with a thump. Balancing again Harry ran out of the corridor and made his way down another corridor. Calling out her name and not getting any response Harry stopped a ghost. It was the Grey Lady. She looked mournfully at him.
"Miss Grey Lady! Have you seen a baby in here?" Harry asked in a near hysteria voice.
"No-o-o-o-o…" the Grey Lady said in a sort of calming voice.
"If you could would you please spread word that a baby by the name of Alexandria is missing in the castle. And if they would help find her?" Harry asked pleadingly. The Grey Lady nodded and flew off. Harry threw a "Thank you" at her retreating floating figure. Racing around the castle he met up with a few other ghosts and some teachers and asked the same thing.
He then went into the third corridor just in time to hear a giggle and a door close. Harry room from door to door till he was at the door that had been forbidden in First Year. He opened it and saw Alex just about to jump down the trap door. He raced up and grabbed her before she fell, but her weight pulled him head first down the trap door. He was falling backwards now, but head first.
He held Alex to his body to brace her from the fall. Then with a sickly crack Harry landed, quickly going unconscious . . .
