Alright so new chapter also I'm not going to focus to much on Harry's childhood because honestly it was a pretty normal one with a couple big events but nothing to dedicate multiple chapters solely to it so they'll probably just be year one filler. ON WITH THE STORY
Chapter 6
So as Harry and Alice were about to head out to the Slytherin Common rooms they realized one very important thing,
"How are any of us supposed to go and do this?" Alice asked as they realized that they had no idea where to go.
"Well you see each founder had a set of doorways here that allow for instant access to most places in the school. If say you needed to head to the first floor you just choose a door with the intent of going to the first floor and you will walk out through a random doorway there. It also works for coming back to the common room but only for the house and anybody that has the express permission of house members to enter the room."
The sorting hat explained from it's new perch above the fireplace. As all the children looked on in awe and even Persephone was a little shocked at this. Harry once he got over his shock said,
"Well alright then Might as well go and deal with this now but also hey Seph can I talk to you for a second?"
"Sure no problem let's go talk over there, now whatcha need?" She said as she and Harry walked off to a quiet side of the room.
"Ok so when your friend gave us the transformations and gave us the ability to talk to animals is it possible to share that with the rest of the house so we can have secret conversations?"
"I don't see why not but with the bond you should all be able to use it anyways because it is a mental thing, as for the transformations well that'll have to come later and maybe a minor version because he isn't in this universe right now after his last fight it locked him into a random universe and the residual energy won't let him out without any backlash."
"Oh ok I just wanted to see and besides I should probably try and get to know them better anyways first I was just wondering for the future. Well we should probably let them know about the animal speak first."
"Right let's go! Also Harry, make sure to start some shit" She finished with a grin on her face which was soon mirrored by the younger boy as they made their way back to the conversing preteens. Harry then spoke up,
"Alright everyone before I leave I think our mental bond allowed us to share an ability Neville, Persephone, Susan and I all have which is to talk to any existing animal or animal based creature!"
Blaise than spoke up asking,
"Does this mean we can also talk to creatures like mermaids or dragons?"
"I think so we haven't tried but because they have a relation to animals we should be able to communicate with them to an extent." Harry answered while wondering if they could.
Sofia than spoke up mentioning the uses in this kind of ability. Alice than got up and said,
"Ok I believe Harry and I have taken enough time so we'll make our way to the Slytherin common rooms and introduce ourselves and our new roles. Enjoy your own introductions!" She said as she dragged Harry over to a door but before they could leave the hat yelled out,
"Also along with intent to enter the common rooms the door will send an alarm to all students in the house to meet in the common room and will only unlock once they have all assembled." Harry then nodded and had the door send the notice but as it was sending the notice he asked,
"Why would it only unlock after?"
"Presentation"
"Ah" they answered as if that explained everything and with that Harry and Alice took their first steps into their new lives as Hogwarts students and ambassadors.

As they opened the door they saw a long hallway that at the end had a emerald glow most likely signifying where the Slytherin Common rooms were. Alice then spoke up,
"So when were you going to tell me that you're actually Harry potter mister Hadrian Crafter? Also Crafter, not much of a difference in name now is it?" She asked with a look of hurt in her eyes while Harry knew that he would have some serious explaining to do.
FLASHBACK
Back when Harry was 5 he wanted to go to the park near Potter manor so he ran to the living area where his parents most likely were to ask. As he approached the area he saw Persephone who looks like a teen right now walking out of the kitchen with a cake in her hands and said,
"Hey Seph! I'm going to ask Mum and Dad if I can go to the park and play want to come with?" He said with a smile at seeing his perceived older sister. Upon seeing Harry she broke out into a grin at the idea of getting out of the house for a day.
"Sure no problem, who knows maybe we'll find you a little girlfriend to play with!" She said while Harry just grimaced in disgust much to her amusement still having the child like ideas of the opposite gender. Shaking his head to get the Icky thoughts out he just said.
"Awesome! I'll go tell them right now I'll meet you at the door!" He said as Persephone walked off to go and get changed out of her Pajamas while Harry continued to go search for his parents and when he got to the living area he saw his parents sitting with his grandparents who smiled upon seeing Harry run in.
"Ah hello there dear what's the rush for?" His grandmother said while his parents looked up at hearing that and his dad asked,
"Now that looks like a young man on a mission mum , so Harry what do you need huh son?"
"I was wondering if me and Seph could go to the park and play!" he asked while his grandfather corrected him saying Seph and I not me and Seph. As Harry was getting a minor impromptu grammar lesson his parents were having a silent conversation before eventually decided that as long as Persephone was with him he would be safe. His mom then spoke up saying,
"Ok dear you can go as long as you stay where Persephone can see you and as long as you don't tell anyone you're nickname and only call yourself Hadrian Understand?" harry quickly nodded that he did and ran off to meet with Persephone and head to the Park.
"You did good dear, we can't keep him hidden forever and besides we already have our alias don't we Rose? Heh Crafter hiding in plain sight with no one the wiser." Dorea said while her husband smiles and agrees. James and Lily could only look forward towards the future while going back to their business conversation and trying not to worry about Harry and make it bigger than expected.
Ok so I decided with everything going on there's no excuse for me not to finish these chapters. Now Harry's family won't be a big part of the story until later on and I hope you all stay safe with everything going on and I look forward to your reviews, let me know what you think of the new format!
