The Years Before

Disclaimer : This is a AU. It is also a crossover between Harry Potter and Demon Diary. And also a little quick story from the back of Demon Diary ( the first book ). If you actually read this, you would know that only the plot is mine. If I make any original characters, I will put up a notice before the chapter officially starts. This is not a Marry Bloody Sue. The story is about Harry. If you do not like it, deal with it by not reading! ( I like to rant. ) Also, Harry is 5. Chibi Harry!


Prelude

Ancient Legend holds... That whoever posses the Crystal Heart... Posses happiness itself. But true happiness, comes with a price of someone else always wanting it. A race of beings made by the God Rased. They were born like us, human and alive.

But as they grew and learned of the ones they loved, their heart crystallizes. And in a offer of their gratitude, they take out their hearts and give it to the person they love.

The giving of their hearts is a test. A test of loyalty, and love. If the other truly loves you, they will put the heart back in and give you life. If they are undeserving, they will take it, and waste away with their loved one gone.

It was never thought of a curse by those who wanted it. But by those who carried it. They never knew that they possessed a Crystal Heart, and after they already pulled it out, it is too late. For most of them, at least.

And thus, the story goes.


A black cat walked down the street. The street had houses on either side, each the same as the ones before. The sign above the street had the words ' Privet Drive.'

Each house had a perfectly green and cut lawn. In each driveway was a car that was washed and clean all the time. In front of every fount window on every signal house is a garden.

If the cat had a human face, it would have a twitching eyebrow. The cat itself was rather odd. Being that it had two silver haired lines on it's back. And on the back of it's left ear was a golden crescent moon. The cat walked by the first house of Privet Drive stiffly, like it was walking to a war mission.

It walked up to Number 4, Privet Drive and sat down by the steps. Out of the way so it wouldn't get stepped on, just in case someone ran out. The door opened and a overly fat man and something that looked like his son walked out of the door.

The man had graying hair and was beefy, and had no neck. Nope, none at all.

The boy looked a lot like the man. He had a large pink face, not much neck, small watery blue eyes and thick blonde hair that lay smoothly on his thick, fat head. Like a pig in a wig. The man and boy were dressed nicely in new clothes. They got in the car, the boy carrying a school back. Even though the boy was fat, he looked to be in preschool.

They drove off and the cat waited. The cat's eyes were a dark violet, they looked smarter then they should. Like they held a forbidden knowledge.

After a while the door opened and another boy stepped out. And he looked nothing like the people that came out before. The boy was small and skinny. He had baggy blue jeans and old shoes that were worn and colorless. He wore a red shirt that hung to his knees and sleeves that almost reached his wrist, that were supposed to be short sleeved. He had no coat like the other two. He had messy black hair that was getting a little long and bangs that covered his face. His eyes, though. They were large and almost glowing emerald green color.

The boy closed the door softly behind him, he held a small bag in his smaller hands. The cat came up to his legs and rubbed against his legs to get his attention.

The boy jumped and looked down. When he saw the cat he sighed and said " sorry mister Kitty, I don't have any food for you." The boy started to walk down the street. The cat followed him.

After a block the boy turned to the cat again and said " I am sorry mister kitty, but I don't have anything to give you." The boy sighed and sat down on a bench of the bus stop.

The cat jumped up next to him and the boy scratched the cat's ears. The boy sighed and said " and you're such a nice cat too, too bad I can't keep you."

The cat watched the boy with its violet gaze and the boy said " since I have yet to introduce myself, I am Harry, Harry Raenef Potter." Something flashed inside the cat's eyes but disappeared back to indifference.

" And I am Eclipse. Reincarnate." The cat said. Harry fell off the bench.
