Disclaimer: Obviously the things you recognize are not mine or I would be rich! Well the only thing that is mine is a few select characters and mannerisms as well as the plot to the story.

A small boy with untidy black hair and a strained expression on his face lay on the ground in the middle of a small valley. It looked as if he were sleeping but if you looked closer you could tell he was awaking. Eyes fluttered open revealing piercing emeralds staring confusedly ahead taking in his surroundings.
Harry Potter could say he didn't know where he was and how he ended up there but that was the least of his worries. He looked down and noticed he seemed closer to the ground then he was supposed to be. He went to grab his wand out of his now baggy slacks but as he felt for it…nothing was there.
It did not really matter if he had his wand or not but now it felt as if part of himself was missing. He shook his head to rid of his thoughts and with a small wave of his hand a mirror was conjured.
He looked at himself and took all his self control to not curse worse then the devil. He did not see the man that he was before he fell asleep but a version of himself at age eleven. The only thing that was different that he could tell was all the malnutrition the Dursley's had subjected him too could not be seen.
He grimaced at his height and low muscle content as he took off his clothes to shrink them. He put on his newly shrunk clothes as he looked around for any sign of where he was. Up on a large hill he could make out a rather large castle shaped thing.
"I guess I should start walking up there and find out where the hell I am," he muttered to himself as he started his trek up the hill. He thought all about what sort of spell could have changed him into a younger and dare he say it uglier version of himself. "Could have been a joke," he muttered as he got to the top and got his first look at the large castle.
In reality it was not a castle but a large mansion made out of white stones. It was smaller then Hogwarts but still quite large and had a quidditch pitch confirming that it was a wizarding household. But that was not the thing that made him almost faint…a large P with a Gryffin and Phoenix emblem sat on the metal gates…the Potter crest.
Harry always knew he had an ancestral home and he had planned on moving in after the war but he never knew the location. He had to admit it was quite beautiful and majestic looking. He magically unlocked the gates with the Potter code…"I am a Potter till death and on," He walked in the gates and down the long path way leading up to two large glass doors. He looked for a doorbell but as he went to ring it, the door opened to reveal a small child. It was a small girl, no older then three with medium length red hair and small oval shaped hazel eyes. He was surprised when she squealed and jumped up in his arms.
"Harry's home, Harry's home!" she exclaimed as she got off him and disappeared. He thought back trying to place if he had ever met the small energetic girl and came up with nothing. He mused out of his thoughts when a tall man with untidy black hair and hazel eyes that were bespectacled came into view with a large smile on his handsome face. Harry just stood there thinking and looked at this strange man and reveling at how much he looked like his father.
"Son there you are! I would advise you to go and hide your mother is furious at you for leaving last night," laughed the man as he clapped Harry on the shoulder. Harry kept staring at the man with a confused look before his face contorting into a murderous gaze.
"Fred and George I don't know how you got her but this time you went to far!" he screamed at nobody as he waved his arms around for effect. The man stood looking curiously around obviously looking for who Harry was talking too.
"Are you ok Harry? Who is Fred and George?" asked the man curiously as looked back to his son.
"Who are you?" growled Harry furiously as he turned his piercing gaze back to the man.
"Your father are you sure your ok?" asked the man worriedly as he went to playfully check Harry's forehead. He stopped at the murderous glare that was sent his way.
"I meant your name?" asked Harry as he tried to keep his emotions in check.
"James Potter," said James slowly as if he were talking to a three year old. Harry's glare intensified at the answer but before he could retort a furious red headed woman came into view by the door.
"Harry James Potter! I don't know who you think you are mister but I want to know where you were all night and I want to know now!" the woman yelled as she tapped her foot impatiently. Harry did not answer right away but looked around the mansion curiously. There were pictures hung on the wall but what struck him was a large painted picture of him with the red headed woman and the man with a young boy that looked seven, the small girl who had answered the door and a small toddler. He turned back to the red headed woman with a glazed look.
"You don't even want to know because I don't even know," Harry muttered at he fell to the ground in a dead faint.
