THE BOY WITH TOO MANY NAMES

In a small cottage on the outskirts of a little village near the coast of Scotland, a little child with black hair was playing outside when he stumbled upon a little book, the cover was silver and there was nothing on the cover. Curious, he opened the book and read from the first page:
-Voldemort Demise Potion-
Crossed out, and beneath that,
-Cauldron Children-
Severus Samuel Snape
James Nathaniel
Potter
Albus Percival
Wulfric Brian Dumbledore
Remus Jack Lupin
Sirius Orion Black
The flowing script seemed oddly familiar, so the boy read on.
June 6, 1982
James Potter, my arch-rival and new collage, the new defense professor, came to me today with a very strange idea. He suggested that we could perhaps brew a potion to rid ourselves of Tom Riddle, the one who dubs himself Voldemort. I spoke to the headmaster, and he set me about sending letters to two of the best brewers in all the world, save myself, him and, though I am reluctant to admit it, James.
June 9, 1982
Both brewers accepted today, they will be coming to Hogwarts in a few days time to begin experiment on if this is even possible to accomplish.
June 10, 1982
So here we are the five best potion brewers in the entire world. Me, Severus Samuel Snape, James Nathaniel Potter, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Remus Jack Lupin and Sirius Orion Black. We held a lengthy conference and have each been given a list of ingredients to find, as they must be found fresh, or they will loose potency.
Five pieces of paper feel out.

June30, 1982
Took a long time to collect ingredients, but we are finished. We have decided to try a potion Kyhebeer Myfeber and Kelcutn as the basic ingredients. Here we go.
June31, 1982
Today we added six dashes of Natricol.
There were several more pages like this, which the boy skipped.
July23, 1982
Today we will add the final two ingredients, Phoenix feather and a vial of Death's Ale. Lupin and Black have put in the two ingredients. The potion is bubbles a bright green col-
Here the trail of ink ended abruptly, and the page was splashed with liquid.
July 24, 1982
We were all nearly killed with the force that issued with the addition of the Ale. We awoke to a pleasant surprise; we had created a real, living child. He resembles us all, the iris of his eyes are Amber and blue, like Remus and Albus. He has James' Black hair, but it has Sirius' tendency to stay manageable. His skin is tanned like Sirius, but he has my hands and build. The curious thing about him is the two snow white wings on his back.
We have decided to keep him and raise him together. His name, after a long, heated discussion in which yelling took place, is Harry James Severus Albus Sirius Remus Potter-Snape-Dumbledore-Black-Lupin. The order of the last names is like this, the potion was James' idea, so he comes first, the other four are in order of skill, me the most skilled, Lupin the least.
July 25, 1982
We have decided to attempt to re-brew the potion to make sure that Harry is not just a coincidence.
August 24, 1982
We created a new baby, a girl this time, Aiadeen, who died just after birth. After examining the remaining liquid, I came to the conclusion that we used to small of a Phoenix Feather, or too much Death's Ale. We will not attempt to brew it again, on account of school starting soon.
June 4, 1983
Harry is at Lily's, a friend of James' because we are redoing the wards today.
June 4, 1983
We received news of an attack on Lily's house. She was killed, but Harry is still alive, and underneath the rubble of the house we found Tom Riddle's body. Albus took the wand and hid it, with "the weapons of the founders, Severus, it is well hidden." In his words. But I trust him, so I will not worry.
June 1, 1985
We are brewing the potion again.
June 25, 1985
We succeeded in our potion, and now have two more boys, only these too have blue wings. Their names are Clint Mathias Potter-Snape-Dumbledore-Black-Lupin and Slade Lucus Potter-Snape-Dumbledore-Black-Lupin.
Footsteps were heard from inside, and the boy quickly shoved the paper back into the book and closed it, tucking his white wings around his back.
