Ch 5 Malfoy Manor
Harry looked up as Severus and Dumbledore walked into the ward.
"Good evening Harry. I hope you are feeling better?" Dumbledore asked the child sitting at the foot of the bed while Severus took the chair beside the bed. Harry looked at Dumbledore.
"I'm fine. Who awr you?" the child asked. The headmaster chuckled.
"I am the headmaster here at Hogwarts." Dumbledore answered.
"ohhhh! Cud you do magic too?" the child asked excitedly.
"Of course! Do you want to see some?" the old man asked taking out his wand as the child nodded eagerly. Dumbledore grabbed a pillow from behind the boy who sat on his knees eagerly. He transfigured the pillow into a small madly barking puppy. Harry squealed with the glee of a happy child. He climbed off the bed taking the dog with him. He ran around the room chasing the puppy and vice versa. The two men just watched with smiles on their faces. Suddenly the dog turned into a hundred butterflies that rose to the ceiling before disappearing.
"Come sit down Harry we have to talk about some things." Dumbledore said beckoning the boy back over. He complied and climbed back on the bed. He noticed Severus then.
"I no you! You taked me back to my uncos" Harry said remembering Severus who smiled slightly and inclined his head a bit.
"yes Harry this is Severus. Now we have to talk about where you are going to live. Now your uncle and aunt did very bad things in the way they took care of you. We went to rescue you when your uncle made you sick" Dumbledore said trying to talk to the boy in the simplest of words. "do you remember that?"
"Yes unco said he has a tweat for me an he gived me a sippy cup like duddy has. He tells me to dwinks it all down. I didn't wants to becuz it didn't tasted good. Den unco hit me when he takes me up da staiws I falls down dem and unco makes me dwink the sippy cup and I did and den my tummy was hurting" Harry said tears coming to his eyes at the memory.
"Its okay Harry we saved you. You will be safe here. Now do you want to stay here?" Dumbledore asked. Harry nodded vigorously. "Excellent! It just so happens that Severus here has tons of toys in his room just for you. You will be staying there with him. He brought you some toys so you don't get bored while you stay here." Dumbledore said. He got up then and went to seek out Madame Pomfrey. Harry just looked at Severus his face curious.
"Well Harry it just so happens that you can do magic like me and the headmaster too" Severus said reaching into his pocket and removing a toy wand. The boys eyes were wide. Severus handed over the wand and Harry took it cautiously.
"How could I make it wok?" Harry asked holding the small wand as if it was the most frailest of gold.
"Just give it a small wave" Severus said leaning forward. Harry did. He waved it gently and sparks flew out of the end. The boy was jumping up in down in excitement and Severus watched him a small smile on his face. Suddenly instead of the sparks butterflies came out of the end. Severus was a little surprised. The toy salesman said only sparks would leave the ends. Severus shrugged it off as Harry began to jump up and down trying to catch the elusive butterflies.
"Harry this weekend I want to take you to meet a good friend of mine. He has a son that is your age." Severus said. The butterflies disappeared as Harry sat down looking a little disappointed.
"What's wrong?" Severus asked the child putting his hand near him on the bed.
"Kids don wike me. Day aways hit me. All of duddy's fwends aways hitted me and pinched me wit all der mites. I twied to tell anty but she aways makes me do a chore if I companed." Harry said sadly.
"Harry in this world it will be different. Your family didn't appreciate you much because you are different. But here in this world everyone is like you. This boy that you will meet he can do magic to. He will be nice I promise. And if he isn't tell me. I won't make you do chores but perhaps we will make him do a chore." Severus smiled a little and Harry brightened. "Here a brought you a few other things as well. This is a magic coloring book. When you finish coloring the pictures they will start to move. And this teddy bear will come to life all you have to do is name him." Severus said handing the child the items.
"Name him?" Harry asked taking the bear. "I wanta name him Teddy!" Harry said. And before his widened eyes the soft bear came to life.
"You're my new best friend" it said and hugged Harry who squealed and hugged it back tightly.
The next week passed quickly. Harry was released three days after it was agreed he would live there with Severus. The Day before the planned trip to see Lucius they went into Hogsmeade to by Harry robes. It was agreed and remembered that Harry's new last name was Snape just like his 'unco sevis' and they had altered his appearance slightly. His once bright green eyes werepitch black like Severus' they also changed the shape on his nose a little so he resembled the formidable potions master. Harry was enjoying his new home. He had the most fun with Dumbledore who showed him the most amazing things and feed him the sweetest sweets. He loved to fly though. He seemed a natural to Severus who gave him his toy broom. The young boy would zoom around the castle like a bandit. Most of the time he had Peeves chasing after him. The poltergeist had taken a fond liking to the boy and spent most of his time teaching the boy ways of mischief.
On Saturday morning Severus woke up to a small someone bouncing up and down on his bed. He opened one eye to look playfully at the small boy he was now calling nephew.
"Get up unco sevis!" he shouted jumping up and down. Severus groaned loudly and pulled the covers over his head. "Hey you gots to get up. I wan go see da mawfoys now!" the boy said trying to pull the blankets back. Severus grabbed the boy and pulled him under the covers.
"How about we go back to sleep?" Severus said holding onto the squirming boy.
"NO! NO! you has to gets up" Harry shouted and he pulled Severus' hair.
"Hey that is not very nice!" He said letting the boy go with a scowl on his face.
"Sowee" he said looking down.
"Its alright. Come on lets get dressed" he said he took Harry into the bathroom and stuck him in the bath. As the young boy splashed in the tub Severus got ready. He picked out a small robe for Harry to wear. It was dark green with small silver dragons decorating it. The boy was quite excited to wear them, because the dragons would really move blasting out yellow orange fire.
When they were ready they departed to Hogsmeade where Severus disapparated them both to Malfoy Manner. Harry looked nervous as they walked up the path of the giant manor house.
"Don't be nervous Harry they will like you. You will have a new playmate by the end of the day." Severus said releasing Harry's hand for a second he rang the door bell and it was opened a second later by a house elf.
"Good Evening sir. Master Malfoy is waiting for you in the sitting room sir" the elf said leading them into the house. They entered the drawing room Harry hiding slightly behind Severus' knees.
"Severus!"
