"Ok so let me see if I have this right, you just changed your last name but didn't hide anything else about your identity and have been friends with me for years and still didn't say anything to me? Right." Alice said nodding to herself before punching Harry in the gut bringing him to his knees as they stood in the Hallway outside of the Slytherin Common room. Gasping Harry just looked at her and said, "Ok I deserved that but hey you know now right? But ok here on out no more secrets!"

"Good now this conversation isn't over but it looks like everybody gathered in the Common room so let's do this." Alice said seeing the door glow green signifying that it was time to head in. As they walked in the door brought them into the center of the common room leaving a clear view of all the students.

"What's going on here!? How did you get here?!" A 7th year yelled out towards the two first years. Who were slowly processing that we are two first years that a talking hat is telling to talk to and represent a house on their own.

'I bet that Seph is just laughing at me right now' Harry thought while knowing deep down that this is something that she definitely had a hand in. 'Well time to be a celebrity' and with that thought he stepped up towards the center and instantly all eyes were drawn to 'The Boy Who Lived' and wanted to see what he had to say.

"Alright as I'm sure you know Alice and I were sorted into house Hogwarts, meaning we have mostly equal traits of all 4 houses. Now the reason why we are here is because we represent the Slytherin side of House Hogwarts. We wanted to introduce ourselves to you all before the year started off."

One 1st or 2nd year student who knows decided they were going to mouth off and yelled out. "What makes you so special, nothing makes you better than us!" Harry, Alice and a good majority looked at the kid like an idiot before a 7th year spoke up,

"You do realize he is the ONLY person to survive the killing curse so there's that." And then due to a certain partially positive influence in his life Harry chimed in, "On the other hand did they make a new house for you?"

At that last statement, the student stepped down with a shrug saying fair point. Alice then took that as her cue to take point in the discussion, "So that's all we wanted to do and now to be formal about this, I am Alice Nicols and I am a Slytherin representative of house Hogwarts." Harry also stepped up and said, "I am Harry Potter and am also a Slytherin representative of house Hogwarts."

The same 7th year girl that defended them earlier spoke up, "Well with that I am Penelope Padgett the 7th year Prefect and as you represent Slytherin house, feel free to come to me with any problems since from what I know you're house is only full of 1st years so good luck with that." She finished with a smile deciding to treat them and anybody in their house like she would any of her houses students.

Penelope then looked around to the others in her house, "The way I see it the new house is apart of all the houses and we should treat them that way. They have no allegiances to one house but at the same time this could improve our standing and image to all the other houses if we show that we are willing to help our fellow student different houses or not." After saying that short speech she could see that her housemates were seriously considering the idea.

It was easier for the younger years to think about because they weren't as exposed as the older years but even the older years were considering it. One of her housemates stood up and said, "I agree if we can avoid any more conflict with the other houses all this will do is improve our standing later especially outside of Hogwarts so I think we should, starting with these two and eventually the rest of their house." He finished pointing towards the two first years standing off to the side while they discussed.

After a few more minutes of discussing the house finally decided, "Well it looks like we all agree, Alice and Harry we agree to help support you and soon the rest of your house, hopefully this is going to show some progress into the rest of the school seeing our house in a different light eventually."

At that last statement Alice got a wide smile on her face that was seemingly shining in the room, the entire house including Harry all winced with someone screaming, "It's too bright, MY EYES!" and she kept on smiling, "That's great! I hope to work together with all of you through these years!" and after that they got to know a few of their partial housemates before getting ready to head back to the Hogwarts house area, "Well it was great to get to know all of you! But we should probably be getting back because by now the others should be done doing their things with what houses they represent." Harry spoke as Penelope got up and said, "I'll walk you back so you don't get in trouble ok?"

Alice then took that as her cue, "No worries we can just leave from here" She said pointing to a random closet door and walking up to it and opening it revealing a hallway much to the shock of the rest of the house. Penelope looked at the kids and asked in shock,

"What?! How does that even work?" Harry and Alice looked at her as they walked backwards into the hallway and said the one word that would be a trigger for staff and students alike, "Magic!" They said with shit eating grins on their faces. Penelope just gave a fond smile before saying, "Of course, heh"

As Alice and Harry walked into the hallway the house didn't notice Harry look at Draco and give him a wink with a small yet sly smile while a Black Haired Brown eyed girl did happen to notice it and her eyebrows crinkled as she looked between the two wondering what that was all about.

As the door closed behind the two Draco, who may have had an impassive face on the outside but on the inside he thought to himself, 'So this is what they were talking about, heheh Slytherin's indeed, I'm so glad that I came to Hogwarts when I did!'

Meanwhile In the Headmasters office

Albus Dumbledore was confused. Now while that was not an uncommon thing amongst most people this confusion was drawn from two things, which were The new House Hogwarts and the intrusion of Persephone Potter.

'How is it that Persephone Potter Slipped my Knowledge, and why does she seem so familiar with young Harry when I am sure that he never left the Dursleys. Then again it is possible she had help but from who and what have they told the boy…" As he was thinking about it he looked up at the headmasters before finally laying eyes on Phineas Blacks empty frame. "The Blacks!" He exclaimed to himself after remembering the problems the Blacks and elder Potter caused for him after Voldemort's defeat.

Flashback 3 days after Voldemort's defeat

It was 3 days after the defeat of the dark lord Voldemort and the Wizengamot was in full session trying former members of his army. Barty Crouch the yelled over the court, "Next we call up Bellatrix Lestrange to the stand." As the entire Wizengamot got silent hearing the name of Voldemort's supposed second in command. As Bellatrix walked up to the stage gracefully with a straight face Barty then started the normal speech he gave before each other member of Voldemort's army, "Bellatrix Lestrange you are called her to the stand due to the crime of serving he who shall not be named and the murders of Muggle and Wizard alike. How do you plead?" He asked with a malicious look in his eyes knowing how she was going to plead. But then Bellatrix's next move shook the wizarding world,

"I plead not guilty!" She spoke proudly and unflinchingly staring into Crouch's eyes. "NOT GUILTY!? HOW DARE YOU LIE TO THE COURT LIKE THIS!?" Crouch yelled out looking at her in pure rage. Seeing that made her smirk "Now Barty I would have thought my killing Rodolphus and Barty crouch Junior who mind you, you should be thanking me for, as I did take care of your stain on your own family name before turning myself in peacefully would have been enough to give claim to my statement."

Barty's face got purple in color as his rage built up before he seemingly composed himself and smirked again before saying, "Well you may have avoided a few more crimes on your sentence, there is still nothing to prove that you are being honest in this statement."

At that moment someone stood up before saying, "Well it's a good thing she has us in her corner now isn't dear boy?" As the members looked up at the man Crouch's eyes widened before speaking over the whispers, "Lord Potter do you mean to say that you are the proof of her claim?!"

Charlus Potter simply looked at Crouch and Smiled before raising his wand up to the air causing a few aurors to grip their wands tightly before releasing their grips after he said, "I Charlus Potter Swear on my life and Magic that Bellatrix Lestrange nee Bella Black did not work for Voldemort during any point in this war." He then cast a quick lumos showing he still had his magic and was still alive obviously proving his oath as true. The court was wide eyed as the wording of that oath meant that if at any point in time she did work for Voldemort whether or not he knew about it he would have died as soon as he made the oath.

The fact alone that he was alive after making the oath proved that her claim of innocence was true. "Well that may be she still committed inexcusable crimes Lord Potter and as such…" Crouch didn't even have a chance to finish before another man stood up and made a bold claim,

"Yet she never actually committed a crime and if you use the so called dark mark as proof, well I'm sure you know us Blacks have plenty of ancient family magic that could easily duplicate of the effects of the mark that dark wizard puts on his sheep" That statement didn't shake up the court so much as the man who spoke it as well as the last one.

Arcturus Black stood tall as he gave his support to a member of his house, well the court did not know she was still a black but they thought she was a Lestrange and that was where the game came into play.

"What are you saying?! Do you believe that we can be played as fools?! You Blacks have always played as a legal family while we all know the truth, you're as dark as your name implies!" Crouch screamed out getting at wits end with these interruptions into what he perceives as rightful justice. Just then two magical pressures filled the room silencing any who tried to speak up in approval or reproach of Crouch's words. While at the same time a third tried to alleviate the combined pressure to not much luck.

One felt like the stare of a raven where it judged their very souls itself. While the other felt like a dragon that was ready to burn the very world under it's righteous flames. The third couldn't be told right away as it was not directed at anybody but for the members who had a keen sense of magic they would attribute it towards a spider steadily spinning a web to catch as many into it's trap as humanly possible.

"Now Barty, if I heard correctly you were trying to accuse my dear friend and his niece of being dark, if I were you I would stand down and take back that claim before I am forced to take action and defend his honor as he would for me, so says the oaths we swore to each other in the days of Grindelwald's rise to power. Also Albus, do keep your pressure down after all you wouldn't want anybody to catch on to anything now would you?"

Charlus Potter looked down to a younger looking Albus Dumbledore who had widened eyes at being singled out by the Potter head.

"Now Charlus-"

"That is Lord potter to you Albus, we are not and will not be on friendly terms as you have wrongfully taken my grandson and refuse to disclose his location to his rightful head and caretaker so unless you want my ire directed to you at this moment we will continue with the trial."

As the Wizengamot stood in shock at this short yet astonishing interaction they brought their focus onto the current situation. Crouch just coughed and shook off his nerves before continuing,

"Well given that we must still administer veritaserum to prove validity to the claims made today by the accused. Aurors administer the serum."

As the aurors walked up to Bellatrix nervously due to her reputation she willingly tossed her head back so they could administer the serum. After her face blanked showing the signs that she had the serum in her system Crouch began the interrogation.

"What is your name?"

"I am known as Bellatrix Lestrange but my true name is Bella Black of house Black."

That statement brought murmurs to the court yet crouch was not deterred as he had a chance to put her too death and would not lose it.

"Explain that for the court."

"Bellatrix was the name put onto my marriage contract with Rodolphus yet the fool did not realize it was a fake name as my cousin Sirius would always call me Bellatrix as a nickname to keep the trend of names based off of constellations and as such most thought that to be my name and did not know different, in doing the contract like this it allowed me to leave and betray him with no consequence."

"How did you betray him?"

"I killed both him and Barty Crouch junior when we were at Longbottom manor, as they are friends of mine and knew what I was doing I could not condone them attacking my friends and turned on them while catching them by surprise and taking them out without any issues."

"Who did you work for?"

Now this question was what the entire court was waiting for as even while Barty's eye twitched at the mention of his son.

"I worked for the Potter-Black alliance as a spy that climbed through the ranks of the dark wizard."

That really shocked the court and led to Crouch's next questions.

"What did you do as their spy and why do both you and Lord Black address the dark lord as a dark wizard?"

"We address him as a dark wizard as he was a lord of nothing and even attempted to murder my lords other grandson and my fellow spy Regulus therefore cementing him as our enemy. As for what we did we gave information to Lords Potter and Black about safehouse locations and raids that occurred allowing us to preemptively strike and eliminate prominent members of his army."

After a few more questions it was eventually declared that she was still guilty of being in service before Arcturus spoke up again

"If Albus can have his pet spy there is nothing to stop us from having our own after all this was war and what we did prevented more death and destruction against innocent people." As he finished Andrew Greengrass spoke up,

"I Agree with Lords Potter and Black and declare Bella Black innocent while on the record Bellatrix Lestrange may be pronounced guilty"

He finished that statement with a smirk as he looked at his two friends giving them a nod. Gritting his teeth Crouch recalled his previous statement before declaring her innocent. After that the rest of the court proceeded smoothly with Crouch storming out of the room at the end of it all.

Meanwhile Lords Potter, Black, and Greengrass all gathered together as they caught up and enjoyed each others company,

"Honestly Andrew you need to come over soon so we can properly reconnect now that all this nonsense is over."

"Truly I would be glad to visit soon feel free to floo call me at any point in time to set a date."

As Arcturus and Andrew talked Charlus noticed another man walking towards the group causing him to tense up, the other two noticed and as such stopped their conversation before Andrew decided to leave while Arcturus stepped next to Charlus to show support for the oncoming and unwelcome conversation.

"Ah Arcturus and Charlus a pleasure to see you two, after all I meant to talk to both of you about what was discovered during this session." He exclaimed with a jovial smile that didn't reach his eyes as he stood Infront of the two. As the two decided to just walk off towards the last few feet of the floo stations they didn't leave before Arcturus said some final words,

"We have nothing to say to you besides this, continue to cross us and we will stand against you continuously."

After that Lord Black stepped into the floo before leaving with a nod to his friend ignoring Albus's existence while as Charlus took the final steps into the floo Albus heard his voice next to his ear clear as day,

"As Lord Potter and Lord Peverell by proxy I revoke all ownerships of the Hallows and reclaim my Families property"

At that final statement Albus felt his magical power drastically drop and his connection to the elder wand forcibly tear from him. He went to speak up but as he charged the floo a magical force flew out pushing him back and when he looked up Charlus was gone and his wand faded from the spot he held it inside his sleeve.

Present day Albus Dumbledore's office

As Albus clenched his fist at the memory he felt a dark satisfaction and knowing he never revealed the Location of Harry to either of them and gave him a slight way to pay back the troubles they caused him when he had to retrieve a new wand.

'I wonder what young Ms. Potter knows about all this and what she has to do with house Hogwarts, well no matter I will just have them take classes with the Gryffindor's and encourage the partnership between Mr. Weasly and Young Harry so that way we have a hand in his future and eventually when Charlus passes his fortune, after all the Peverell Tomes and the Hallows return to myself will prove useful for the future.'

As he finished that thought he looked out the window staring down at Hogwarts not knowing he had another set of eyes on him. The eyes of the very girl that was the start of this plague of thoughts he had.

'Heh this old man doesn't even know what he's messing with. After all since Flamel and I agreed on giving him a fake stone there is no reason to involve us much at the moment ruining at least one of his plans.'

Persephone thought this to herself from her spot lounging invisibly on his chair before fading from existence into her new house thinking about how much fun she's about to have watching what she set up go into play.

Alright I'm done with this chapter, so I'll be blunt…with what I have planned first and third year won't be long arcs making a couple chapters or so. It's nothing against the years but I just have no way to tie them in besides using year 1 as a way to introduce Harry's past and some character relationships while year 3 is undecided. I do have big plans for this story and have definitely put thought into where this is going so please bear with me. Thanks R and R and be safe!
