Chapter 1
"Harry Potter."
Harry is feeling everyone's eyes on him and finally snaps. He is feeling anger burning within himself. That's it, I'm done playing nice.
"I, Harry Charlus Potter, do swear on my body, magic and soul that I did not enter my name in this cursed Tournament, I never asked anyone willingly or unwillingly to enter my name by proxy. As I lay my oath to Lady Magic, so mote it be!"
The oath settles and gasps are heard throughout the Great Hall. The previously named Champions came out of the antechamber and are witnessing Harry's oath.
"Furthermore, I have to say a few things. Everyone better sit down and Professor Snape, for once in your cursed life as the dongeon bat, shut the fuck up and listen to the real Harry Potter."
Harry walks and sees Dumbledore's reaction. "Same message to you, Headmaster."
He reaches the Goblet of Fire and links himself to Hogwarts. "As my rights by blood and magic, I so declare to be the Lord and Head of the Most Honorable Houses and Utmost Noble of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. Lady Magic, please judge my vow!"
A blinding flash of magic erupts around Harry and he drops his glamour. Once everyone can see again, they all gape at the young man standing where Harry was a minute ago.
"As my rights by birth and magic, I, Lord Harry Charlus Potter Hogwarts hereby seals this Great Hall until the truth about my life is known! Lady Hogwarts, please link the ceiling of the Great Hall to my mind!"
Dumbledore knows that all his manipulations are going to be exposed. Severus blanches slightly at the memories everyone is about to see. The rest of the staff, foreign Headmaster/Headmistress and Minitry officials are curious.
Harry starts showing everyone THAT night and they all watch James Potter fighting a crazy Voldemort then Lily Potter beg for her son's life.
Harry swipes the lone tear that fell from his eyes and turn his anger towards the Headmaster.
Next, they all watch the Headmaster and the Deputy Headmistress leave a one year old on the doorstep of his relatives.
Everyone turn their attention to Dumbledore, the famed Leader of the Light with shock and unrestrained anger.
They all watch the next ten years of abuse at his relatives' hands and more than a few throw up their dinner. Amelia Bones, head of the DMLE, is seething at the clear criminal offenses they are watching. No one can believe that their Savior used to live in a Cupboard under the Stairs.
They witness Harry's first year and hear his thoughts about dumbing himself. And how much the staff must be stupid to think he didn't realize what they were doing.
They are shocked to see Voldemort and are more shocked when they see Harry keeping the Sorcerer Stone. They see him sending a letter to the Flamels, including the Sorcerer's Stone.
They witness his summer and everything that happened in his second year. The blatant disgusting behavior of the student body and staff, most of them feel shame at their behavior.
More than one gasp and shriek when they see that Voldemort is nothing more than a halfblood.
Most looses control over the emotions when they see the gigantic basilisk.
An untrained twelve years old fighting a thousand year basilisk. They all stop breathing when they see Fawkes drop the Sorting Hat and minutes later, to see Gryffindor's sword.
He then starts fighting the basilisk and they all forget to breathe when they see that the basilisk stabbed his arm with one of its fangs. Him stabbing the diary and they all finally breathe when they see him move again. They are all in awe that the phoenix healed him willingly.
They watch the uncaring behavior of the staff following Harry's near death experience and wonder what Harry did with the sword.
Memories quickly shows the blowing of Marge Dursley and the reason behind it. Most of the student body cheer when they see her flying away and he even let himself chuckle at their reaction.
He shows them his experiences with the Dementors and his training to cast the Patronus charm.
The end of the year event shocked everyone, as they watched Pettigrew (the dead Hero?) confess that he was the Secret Keeper and that he willingly told Voldemort where the Potter were hiding.
Angry mutters are heard in the Great Hall and they are shocked to their cores when they watch Harry and Hermione go back in time to save Sirius and Buckbeak.
Every single person is openly gaping when they watch Harry successfully cast the Patronus charm against hundreds of Dementors.
His meeting with Fudge earns the Minister a look full of promises from the head of the DMLE. They watch Harry exploring the Castle when he falls on the Room of Requirement.
"Greetings, Heir Potter. It has been quite some time we have been waiting for you to come here."
Harry looks around him and wonders if he finally succeeded in being crazy. That earns him chuckles and laughter from everyone.
"Since I'm not crazy, unfortunately some will say, I know that someone talked. For the few etiquette rules I know, one must introduce himself first."
He hears four chuckles and walks towards the noise. "Protego!"
"Good mind you have, lad. Never come unprotected. My name is Godric Gryffindor, your Ancestor." He chuckles at Harry's face. "One of your Ancestors."
"Don't listen to him, my dear. My name is Helga Hufflepuff and to cut the chase short, you are our Heir. All four of us."
Harry thinks that he reached what a few wished for him, insanity. And he promptly passes out.
Every eye turns towards him and he grins madly. "It isn't over. My emotions were in overload, my brain couldn't process what I didn't understand. As I didn't grow up in our world, I didn't know that I was Heir Potter to begin with. Someone certainly lacked honesty and time in their previous duties." The filthy angry glare he send Dumbledore is seen by everyone and more than a few imitates him.
The ceiling shows what Harry is seeing and they are shocked to see his attention on four portraits.
"Fine, I'm still alive. That doesn't mean that what you say is true."
The answer came from an unexpected source. "My little snakelet, it is clesr to us you have been abused. I also feel something is either blocking or magic or feeding from it."
Harry's face earns him chuckles from.the four Founders. And from the Great Hall. Except a few.
"Okay, fine. I have been abused, repeatedly. Lack of food, care, family and the Headmaster is having unhealthy interest in me." He takes a deep breathe to calm down. "Okay, like I always do, I need to plan. Its easy for one to dumb himself and let everyone think he's a dunderhead. Like the current Potion Master likes to tell everyone. I will be completely honest with you about my current knowledge level."
He conjures a sofa, a table, charms them to be unbreakable and sits down. "In brutal honesty, the staff and students know that I'm a student between Acceptable and Exceed Expectations. Truthfully, I have reached the beginning of sixth year in Transfiguration, Charms, Defense against the Dark Arts, Potions (even if the Potion Master seems to enjoy loathing my existence in any living planes that we exist in), Herbology, Astronomy, Arithmancy and Ancient Runes (I didn't even take them as to not alert the creepy Headmaster of my knowledge). I also finished the fifth year cursus in Magical Care, and a few more subjects not taught at Hogwarts, including Physical Activities, Flying, Healing and Languages (be it Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and Russian. I'm still learning Bulgarian and the Goblin Language.)"
The four Founders are gaping at gim before Rowena Ravenclaw grins at him. "I see my mind in you, little Raven. And I can see that your mind being protected yet I am able to see you practicing at night. Since your despicable relatives forced you to not sleep a lot, you spend most of your time studying in the library. Ah, it reminds me of the old days where I was building the Hogwarts library."
Harry smiles at the kind comment and nods once. "I won't tell anyone about this room or about you four until I know whom I can trust."
"Perfect thinking lad. Contingency planning is needed in life. You are to meet with the Goblin King and shoe him our conversation. The Goblins will help you, expecially in the matter of dark magic in your scar."
Harry loses his grip on his magic and it quickly starts being agitated around him. He closes his eyes wills his magic to fight whatever is in his scar.
All four Founders are watching in amazement and are shocked when they see a wraith screaming in agony, escaping his scar.
"I do not who or what you are but you will not exist anymore. I don't care about anything other than ending you. For too long I fought you and with my magic combined with my mother's sacrifice, I ask any entity or Divinity to come and judge you. Please hear my call for this monstrosity is to be judged!"
Dumbledore blanches and is feeling Minerva's attention on him. "You told me that night that scars come in handy. YOU KNEW ABOUT THAT AND DIDN'T DO ANYTHING?"
Harry chuckles at his previous head of House's screaming and return his attention to the memories.
A thick white mist appear in the chamber and a voice echoes deeply. "Harry Charlus Potter, we have been watching your life. You are free from the so called dark lord Voldemort but beware of the so called Leader of the Light. We have watched over you, protected you as much without tampering with the Aether. You are what very few are able to achieve yet you did it at thirteen years old. Listen to your Ancestors and follow their lead, young Heir. Your parents are proud of you."
The mist thickens more and encompasses the dark wraith strongly. "Tom Marvolo Riddle, also known as Voldemort, you are to come with us and be judged. You desecrated what makes wizards and witches sacred, in the hope of escaping death. But no more."
Harry is able to breathe a moment later and takes a deep breathe. "I thank all the Divinities and Lady Magic for their help. I will continue to make you proud, no matter who stands in my way."
He turns his eyes to his Ancestors and Salazar starts chuckling. "That was a first, Harry. We have been honored to witness a contact between the Divinities and our Heir. Now, you need to return to the Castle, as people might starts looking for you."
"Harry, please take the chest next to the door. It contains our portraits and when you do what you are planning to do, take them out."
"Of course, Lady Hufflepuff. I wonder how everyone will react when they hear that I'm not interested in women. I already have more than a few groupies running to get between my legs, which is totally disturbing. As I'm thirteen. Anyway, I'm leaving now. I can't wait for this summer!"
He grins widely and receives four grins and nods. He shrinks the trunk and waves goodbye at his Ancestors."
He stops the memories and takes out the trunk from his pocket and enlarges it. Which earns him gasps from everyone in the Great Hall. He lazily waves his wand and send Rowena's and Salazar's portraits to the left wall while Godric's and Helga's portraits to the right wall.
"As Lord Hogwarts, I fully empower the portraits and their locations. So mote it be!"
The four portraits activate and they look around. "Tri-Wizard Tournament and it seems that the old goat was able to enter me in another year of danger. Not that he knows what I will say next."
Salazar and Godric grins, Rowena chuckles while Helga smirks evilly. "Show them, our Heir."
"Of course, Aunt Helga." He clears his throat and locks his eyes on an unhealthy white Headmaster.
"As Lord Hogwarts, I order the Goblet of Fire to show us who entered my name in this cursed Tournament! So mote it be."
The Goblet of Fire starts to show imagery and shows Professor Moody entering his name in the Goblet. "Lady Hogwarts, please stun Professor Moody."
When he hears a loud thud, he waves his wand to conjure chains with runes glowing on them to tie him up and drop any kind of enchantements or potions.
He quickly sees Moody transforms in a known death eater. "Crouch Junior?" He quickly stuns Crouch Senior and levitates him next to his son.
"Lady Bones, I'm sorry to give you even more work than expected. More will come soon."
He turns his attention to the Headmaster and glares at him. "I fully repudiate you for four reasons: your thievery of over one million galleons from the Potter vaults. The second reason is due to the fact of you not taking out the dark magic in my scar. The third is for endangering all the student body with your games to test me. And the fourth because of your soul bonded mate."
Dumbledore quickly stands and throws curses at Harry. "As Lord Hogwarts, no one shall endanger the students and any guests. Since you do not have their interests at heart, I fuly strip you of your station of Headmaster, holder of the wards. Your soul bonded, Grindelwald, was visited by the ICW hit-wizards earlier in the summer. And they are not happy with you."
Harry quickly summons the Elder wand from Dumbledore and raises it toward the ceiling. "As Lord Hogwarts, I cannot be in a Hogwarts House, enter any competition, sleep in the Houses dormitories or get involve with any International Tournaments. To that effect, I, Lord Harry Charlus Potter Hogwarts, publicly announce of my non-participation in the Tri-Wizard Tournament and fully support the three current champions. So mote it be!"
He wordlessly throws a Patronus and a dragon erupts from the Elder wand, shocking everyone.
"I will show you my summer in the next few days. I have taken more than enough time from everyone, as it is almost ten in the evening."
Harry tilts his head to each Founder and they shale their heads.
"You inherited the dramatic side of Salazar and Godric. But you did good, Harry."
"Thanks Aunt Rowena. I will be activating your portraits throughout the Castle. Then, I will go study as I did every night."
He turns his attention to the head table and smiles kindly at them. Most of them. "Professors, I will request to meeting you tomorrow morning, six in the morning if possible."
Professor McGonagall receives a nod from every Hogwarts Professor and gives him a kind smile. "Of course Lord Hogwarts. It does seem that something is missing though."
Harry's smirk shocks Professor Snape, as it seems to be the same he always show to everyone. "I always found you more than you let everyone realize, Professor. Indeed, after studying for the first couple of weeks of the summer, I took my OWLs and received the results. I haven't opened it, I thought I will let you the honor of opening it."
Every single person in the Hall gapes at him and watches intently the envelope being levitated to a stunned Transfiguration Professor. She opens it and reads it a few times before expressing it loudly.
"Dear Mr. Potter,
You have achieved new records of OWLs, particularly in Charms, Defense against the Dark Arts, Languages and Potions. As you have been examined at the ICW level, the results have been sent to them and you should expect correspondence with them.

A heavy silence falls in the Great Hall when everyone hears his grades.
"Thank you Professor, I will be awake around five in the morning, if you want to talk. I need to do a few things, I will bid everyone goodnight."
He bows respectfully and leaves the Great Hall when they hear him swearing. "For everything that is fucking sacred!"
He reenters the Great Hall and shrinks the trunk before safely storing it in his pocket. "To the Goblet of Fire, I thank you for your honored presence at Hogwarts."
The Goblet emits lots of fire before a voice fills the Great Hall. "Honored Lord Hogwarts, we are the honored ones. May the Divinities protect you and yours."
"And you too, honored ones. You will always be welcomed in the sacred Halls. Contact Lady Hogwarts and I shall aid you."
The Goblet emits fire for a few seconds before shutting off. He then smirks and leave the Great Hall.
After a minute of silence, Professor McGonagall stands up. "Tonight has been a heavy ordeal. Please head to your common rooms. Your presence to the morning breakfast is required. Eight thirty sharp. Not a second later. Good-night."
She turns her attention to the Minister and Lady Bones. "Please take these two criminals out of this Castle. Like everyone, I know you have questions to Lord Potter. Please come to the breakfast tomorrow. Hogwarts alerted me that I am now the Headmistress and Lord Potter sent me a message for the both of you to be present tomorrow."
"Please tell him that Sirius Black will have a trial as soon as we can. I will bring a few trusted aurors with ne tomorrow, as I feel that surprises are barely uncovered. Please keep an eye on Dumbledore, not that he's in any shape or form to do anything."
They both give Professor McGonagall a smile, nod and leave with the stunned criminals.
Seeing the Great Hall empty of students, she turns her attention to Dumbledore. "You are the reason the lad had to grow faster than anyone else. If what I fear is to come out tomorrow, he will call for your head and your beard! I told you they were the worse kinds of muggles but no! The great Dumbledore doesn't make mistakes. You think of yourself as the next Merlin yet your morals are the same as Tom Riddle. You disgust me!"
She looks at the Professors around her. "Tomorrow morning, there will be a meeting with Lord Hogwarts. Six in the morning. Based on what we hard tonight, I have high hopes that he will do what we all asked for years. Let us head to sleep or for most of us, to the firewishkey. "
They all chuckle, nod and leave the Great Hall.
He enters the Slytherin common room and hisses at a specific portrait.《Good evening, Ancestor of mine. You are back in your common room, Lord Slytherin.》
《Thank you, my Heir. Wish me luck in dealing with those brainwashed morons.》
Harry laughs and taps the portrait twice before leave the Slytherin common room. He walks for a few minutes before entering the Hufflepuff common room.
He taps his wand in a specific pattern and Helga's portrait appear in front of him. "Well done, Harry. You showed them all. Take good care of yourself and sleep more than a couple of hours a night."
The first Hufflepuffs start entering the common room and freeze when they see him.
"Of course Aunt Helga. I will try and I will always listen to you when it comes to revenge." He winks at her and head out from a hidden exit.
He walks to the Ravenclaw common room and finds it full. "Don't let me bother you, I'm just doing what they ordered me to."
He gives them a big smile and reaches the side library of the common room. He tapes his wand in an desorganized pattern and a portrait appear in front of him, smiling.
"Truly my Heir, you are Harry. You found the pattern within seconds. Well done."
"Thank you Aunt Rowena. I'm going to leave you to your Ravens but before" He turns his attention to the whole Ravenclaw House. "If I hear anyone bullying Luna Lovegood, I will destroy this tower. As of this second, she is under the protection of the Utmost Ancient and Utmost Noble House of Potter. Beware of the consequences of your actions, as I will not be lenient to a whole House bullying one of their own. Remember my warning."
He waves his wand and numerous things fly back to him. He activates charms to stop anyone who might steal it, conjures a trunk and stock them in it.
He walks to Luna and she jumps in his arms, crying. "Don't worry little one, you are not alone."
He waves his wand and the Potter crest appear on her left arm. "Aunt Rowena, I think your House needs a dressing down. Have fun with them."
He lifts Luna's head and gives her a big smile. "You are the little sister I should have had, Luna. If anyone - and I mean anyone - do anything, I will come with the whole might of the House of Potter against them. There is a protected chamber in the chamber, it's yours. Hogwarts' magic itself will protect you."
"Thank you, thank you very much!"
He tries to calm her down while glaring at everyone, his magic slightly glowing around him. He calms her down and she happily enters her chamber. With one last nod at his Aunt, he leaves that common room to a Founder screaming at them.
He walks to the Gryffindor common room and opens the portrait. Silence falls when everyone see him. He waves his wand on the wall next to the fireplace and a giant portrait of Godric appear in front of everyone.
"Godric, welcome back. Remember what we discussed?"
"Indeed Harry and I see it. Good luck and if you need anything, you know what to do."
Harry snorts and nods at his Ancestor. "Sadly, I'm no longer a Gryffindor as I'm publicly known as Lord Hogwarts. That being said, if anyone needs help, I will always be there for everyone. Since I know that you have questions, please let us sit."
He easily and silently conjures numerous couches and sofas. "Who wants to start?"
Ron clears his throat. "Why didn't you tell us anything?"
"I didn't know if I could trust anyone as the main person I trusted betrayed me and my House. Repeatedly."
A seventh year nods at Harry. "It does make sense and the help goes both ways, Lord Hogwarts."
Harry shakes his head and his hands. "No, big fat no. I'm still Harry for everyone. I was somehow forced to take my Lordships, as it breaks the cycle of danger is was forced in. and the same to you, George."
Said George smiles and nods in thanks.
Harry looks at Hermione and is saddened by the clear jealousy written on her face. "I expected as such. I knew that your reaction will be that you won't tolerate anyone being labelled smarter than you. I hope you will calm down and think but I won't get my hopes up."
He clears his throat and is overcomed by joy when most of the House turns to glare at his ex-best friend. "Don't let her or anyone make you think that we aren't proud of you, Harry. You went through hell with those ...muggles you call relatives and yet, here you are with us."
"Thank you very much, Mandy. You don't know how much I'm happy to hear that." He clears his throat and look at then. "I uncovered a blatant case of intense bullying in Ravenclaw House. The third year is now under the protection of House Potter. I hope that no one from this House will bully her."
After getting affirmations that they will stomp down on bullying, Harry bids them goodnight and leaves the common room. He heads to a portrait on the third floor and taps on the portrait seven time in a specific pattern.
The Castle starts shaking slightly and stops right away. He opens the portrait and enters in the Founders' tower.
"Home away from home. It feels good. I need to sleep. I'm going to wake up and train as usual." And before he knows it, he's in a deep sleep.
