Prologue
2nd November 1981. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry: Headmasters Office
"Dumbledore you cannot be serious!" screamed the young woman.
"Lady Diana I am quite serious, Harry will stay with his aunt and uncle until Voldemort is truly defeated."
"Why?"
"Because the protection Lily put on him will only work as long as he is with someone of her blood."
"I'm of her blood!"
"I know Bella, but Remus's condition would make it dangerous for you to have him with them."
"Look, Dumbledore. Gryffindor's well protected. I'll raise Harry with my Katie. It will do them both good."
"Well protected as it is Romula it is not protected enough."
"Then I will look after her, Blaise and I are the heirs of Ravenclaw and our house is well protected,"
"I still don't see why I can't look after my own grandson."
"Listen, if any of you even think about trying to take Harry out of Petunia's clutches I will have you sent to Azkaban."
"Listen to me Dumbledore! We will leave but if Harry has been hurt either physically or emotionally you will wish you had never been born! One week before Harry's sixteenth birthday we will take him away and he will never return to their home."
"All right, make sure to inform your relatives of this development. Good day, Duke Duchess, Lady Diana, Lady Tatiana, Lady Zabini, Lady Lupin, Mrs. Bell.
