Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore headmaster of Hogwarts was sitting in headmaster's office was thinking about the situation about the orphan boy Harry Potter. He can let the boy be ignorant of all the things about his mother and father and magical world and introduce it on his eleventh birthday like every muggleborn. Yes, this would have been an excellent solution if he was a normal orphaned boy of a magical family, but with his status as a celebrity and heir to an older magical family, it would not be an ideal solution. He made up his mind he can't let this happen, what he knows about the Petunia and Veron they will hate the boy because of magic. With determination, he called his familiar phoenix Fawkes and flashed away.

Albus Dumbledore appeared in Upper Swell near the small house of his old friend Alfred Anderson muggleborn who served as a healer for 40 years in St Mungos. He was an excellent healer. He needs his help for a particular boy and confidentiality. Knocking on the door of his old friend patiently was waiting for someone to open the door. When the door opened he was glad to see his old friend and student to answer the door.

"It's great to see you after so many years, Albus," said Alfred.

"Certainly last time was when your son played last time match for quidditch match you were attending it," replied Albus warmly.

"Yes, it was. Come in. You might have something important to explain as you came in the early hours of the morning," said Alfred.

"Yes, actually I need your help with a certain patient. I would have taken Poppy's help but I need certain secrecy and also someone who could explain to muggles," said Dumbledore.

"Just give me a minute I can put something normal for muggles, you can transfigure your robes as well " replied Alfred. With that, he made his way to the bedroom to change.

While Alfred was changing Dumbledore was contemplating how to handle things with Dursley family. While he was in his thoughts Alfred came back.

"Dumbledore you should change your attire if you are dealing with muggles," he said to Dumbledore. Nodding his head, he transfigured his robes somewhat similar to Alfred.

Dumbledore asked him to side apparition with him. Both of them appeared in the bushes near the Privet Drive where no one can see them. Making their way to No4 Dumbledore informed Alfred that they were going to visit Harry Potter and his aunt's family. Alfred nodded and knew why the secrecy was needed and why he was asked to come.

Dumbledore knocked on the door of No.4. He knew this would be a very lengthy and difficult discussion with Dursleys. The door was opened by distracted Mrs. Dursley. She was surprised to see the Dumbledore at her door. She knew Dumbledore from Lily and to her embarrassment she has sent letters to him to allow her to attend the Hogwarts. She connected all the dots and why her nephew was on her doorstep in the morning.

"What you need Dumbledore are you here for taking Lily's son away. You know that we don't want to deal with your lots," said Petunia.

"I can explain all the circumstance regarding little Harry and the demise of his mother and your sister. If you please let us in, we don't want your neighbors to hear what I am going to say do we?" said Dumbledore with a grandfatherly smile.

Petunia grudgingly escorted them to the sitting area. She has another task to calm down Vernon seeing the wizards in their house.

"Vernon the headmaster is here to explain about Lily's death and her son's appearance our doorstep," said Petunia.

Vernon's face colour was changing from pale to red and red to purple comically.

"Let's just meet the whoever it is and get rid of the freak away," said Vernon. Petunia winced at the word freak. She may not have been close to Lily as she was before Lily went to Hogwarts but her son was the only family left besides her own family. Besides her nephew was only fifteen months old. Somehow she felt little attachment to her nephew. Vernon went to sitting as a demon-possessed him. Entering the sitting Vernon started shouting with his finger pointing towards the two men in the sitting.

"Listen to me freaks I don't want anything with you and your world. You can take that other freak also. We don't want anything abnormal in our house. You will take him and let us leave our lives," said Vernon a louder voice and moving closer and closer to old Dumbledore and pointing his finger at near his face.

Dumbledore was relieved that he was right to come here to take a check on Harry and his living condition. He knew Harry would not be loved in Dursley's house, but he was expecting them to have the livable and safer condition. Judging by the angry looks he was receiving from he was sure Harry's childhood would not be happy and similar to another boy. Taking a deep breath he said to Vernon.

"Mr. Dursley I know you don't want to deal with our kind but I if you could be kind enough to just explain to me something that is very important for well being of your family. "

Hearing this Vernon again swelled with anger but knew with these freaks he needs to be careful without giving any idea that he was scared of these freaks.

"Are you threatening me? Coming in house rule-abiding citizens, making threats to my family and dumping freaks on my house, " shouted angry Vernon clenching his fist as if he was going to punch someone.

"No Mr. Dursley. There are things that I need to explain the circumstance that leads to the death of your sisters-in-law and husband. If you could please just let me explain it to Mrs. Dursley it would be a great deal of time," said with a calm

and soothing voice.

"I will take Harry to another family of our kind, who will accept him with open arms, but it will make your family a great target because of some circumstances in our World."

Dumbledore was 110 years old has learned the way a human thinks. If you put enough conviction in lie eventually people believe it. The wizarding world knew Lily Potter was muggleborn but they did not know anything about her family.

"What are you talking about we don't want anything with your freakiness" yelled Vernon. Petunia entered the sitting room as soon as her husband started yelling. Petunia knew Vernon has temper issue and had eavesdropped on the what Headmaster said to Vernon. She knew from Lily there was someone who had a similar view like "Ku Klux Klan" in the United States difference was just that he was after those who did not have the magical parentage and would consider them as animals. She needs to make sure his family is protected. She put her hand on the shoulder on the Vernon's and look to Dumbeldore and said "Vernon, can we just listen to him and if after that we can do whatever you think it is right. "

Vernon was not an unreasonable man but he wants to live a normal life with no freaks around his or his family's life. He had learnt from his experience sometimes Petunia has some kind of sixth sense and had saved him loss when he wanted to purchase some shares which were doing good but crashed after two months. A similar incident happened with and his deal, which could have made his company lose a great deal of money and him his job. Sometimes he thought Petunia may be also freak and was lying to him, but she had never been in contact with her sister or any other freaks. So trusting his wife's sixth sense he nodded his head and looking at the barmy old fool and said "You got half an hour, explain it. We are hard-working people. I have to go to the office in one and a half hours. We can't just make food appear by doing hocus focus like you do by we need money for that."

Smilingly Dumbledore made a gesture and ask if they can sit. Grudgingly Vernon nodded and they sat on the couch and chairs. Dumbledore started explaining about the Voldemort's war other thing and Alfred put his bits or two with the muggle reference so that Vernon can understand it. After Dumbledore's explanation was over and hearing some titbits of information he had from Petunia of the wizarding world.

"So what we will just move to Australia or the United States and you can keep the freak with some of your kind," said Vernon with glee in the eyes and smirk on his face.

Dumbledore had to deal with the fools like Vernon on a daily basis. But he knew how to handle them. With another sigh, he replied, "Yes you can, but they're way to track by magic and if you are in other countries I won't be able to help you."

As soon as those words left from Dumbledore's lips, Vernon face colour again started to change. Dumbledore new he had Vernon where he wanted some half-truths are always good if that can make Harry have some resemblance to a family and would we be protected from other threats. He knew there are ways through blood you can trace someone. As they are used by goblins and also in the family trees of Older magical family. But this knowledge was known to a few wizards. He knew four wizards who can do that including himself in wizarding Britain.

Arcturus Black, Abraxas Malfoy and Voldemort. Out of those four Voldemort and Abraxas are dead or not able to perform magic and Arcturus would not even glance towards any muggle-borns let alone muggles. But Vernon was not aware of this and he was not going to tell him that. He knew Vernon was a person who was greedy and with the right amount of money he could make him agree with his terms.

" , I can put protection around your house with the blood of Harry and Petunia. In order to work for them you Harry needs to consider this house as his home and if he can feel some love or if some attachment to this house the protection will be better. I know raising Harry will be a financial burden to you I will make arrangements of Harry's upbringing," addressed to Vernon with a smile on his face.

Dumbledore knew Vernon will not use this money for Harry.

"Be sure that the money is properly spent on Harry alone. I will visit monthly here to give money. You will be watched continuously for protection and you so you can't harm Harry in any way possible," said Dumbledore by taking his wand out. This was not the way generally Dumbledore handles things but he was hell-bent to make Harry raise properly.

"If you agree on terms I can come to give you £300 for the month and an extra £400 so you can buy other essentials for Harry. Harry's medical treatment or vaccines will not be of your concern so his education up to his eleventh birthday. My companion here is a good Doctor for us freaks in your words, "Dumbledore ended his sentence with jab at Vernon which was not unnoticed by other occupants.

"Fine with me but he will be punished as we normal people do when a child does not listen or does not behave. " Vernon said with more confidence.

"You will be his guardian. You are allowed do that but if I find anything as physical or mental abuse. You will be deal with proper authority, " replied Dumbledore.

Alfred was shocked with the way Dumbledore was behaving. It was altogether a different personality. He came two too conclusions first he deeply cares for the boy or someone was using pretending to be Dumbledore. Later was just a jest.

"If all things are settled, I want to check Harry's health with help of my friend Alfred here," Dumbledore said with a commanding tone.

Vernon was going to rebut the old fool but was interrupted by his wife.

"Harry is in the bedroom upstairs. He is sleeping now in his basket along with the Dudley my son," said Petunia with hope to ease out the tension. She knew the money which Dumbeldore offering was more than needed to raise Harry until he reaches age four and Petunia knew Vernon has caught on that.

"If you could let us there we can check Harry," requested Dumbledore.

Nodding her head Petunia lead the two men to the bedroom of her son.

The bedroom was nothing out of ordinary. Two boys were sleeping in there respective place. Harry in his basket and his cousin who had blond hair which resembles someone Dumbledore knew from the past. As they went near Harry, Alfred took the lead and went ahead and started scanning the fifteen-month baby. He went to scan and check the magical core of the baby but suddenly other boy started crying.

Petunia was just behind the doctor who was checking her nephew. Hearing her son's crying she went past the man her elbow strongly brushed against the man's hand holding the stick and changed the direction from her nephew to her son. She did not notice it and went to pick up her son.

Alfred knew his intended spell for Harry has been cast upon his cousin and was expecting nothing but result shocked him the child was magical. To be sure he cast the same spell on boy and the result was positive. This did not get noticed by Dumbledore smiling and the twinkle in his eyes asked Alfred

"Is it what I am thinking Alfred."

Alfred turned towards Dumbledore and said, "I am positive about it but just let me check if it is correct."

Hearing the conversation of two wizards Petunia was confused and was trying to stop the crying Dudley.

Seeing the confused state of , Alfred moved towards the blond boy and asked her "Mrs. Dursley can I ran come scans on your son. I am not going to harm your son, I just want to be sure before reaching any conclusion."

Petunia was scared she had no idea what was going on why did these men want to check her son. She was confused. She was just going to refuse it when Vernon interrupted her and who has just come running in the bedroom after hearing Dudley's crying. "Petunia let him check Dudley," said Vernon with a scarred face. Petunia looked at Vernon's face and she can see that Vernon was sacred. Vernon's face was of someone who knew he was going to face grave news, not of someone who was scared like he was Dumbledore was explaining about dangers they can face in near future.

After receiving permission Alfred started casting standard spells which are generally cast upon magical infants. After a few minutes of his diagnosis was over he turned towards Dumbledore and just looked into his eyes as if asking permission after he received a nod from Headmaster.

He said to Dursley's "Mr and Mrs Dursley your son is a Wizard."

Author's Note: Dumbledore is consider one of the smartest wizard in the wizarding world . So he definitely has knowledge about currency. Not in the sense of conversion rate but at least its name.

If you think he is not like that of canon than go read he JKR Harry potter. I will portray him as I like.

Cut me slack regarding the allowance offered I am 21 and have no idea about raising child and not from UK .

Need Beta for the story.
