Chapter 4

As they set at a table full of children, after being persuaded (Read: blackmailed with the puppy dog eyes'), the Grangers were asking the basic questions. How much is tuition, how current is the curriculum, any clubs, whats the average GPA. To say they were pleased with the clear answers and the fact that the teachers would come by and great them as well as talk with the other children was an understatement. When they were told that the academy provided courses for specific needs and career studies they started to ask more about the teachers certifications.

"All teachers are either a Bachelor or Masters in their field. Some classes have magical teachers that have trained in their fields for at least ten years. We do have a assistant teacher program as well as guest lecturers..."

One of the kids looked up at Emma, "What do you do for a job?"

She smiled back, "My Husband and I are Dentist, we help correct mouth and teeth problems."

"Oh, Like a vet helps with animal problems?" Emma giggled at the little boy with fox ears and a fluffy swaying tail. She nodded.

Harry grinned at them as Heroine tilted her head. "Dad, Mom, Do you want to see if you could do a guest lecture for Dentistry?"

The tour continued and at the end the Grangers were happy to be allowed another week to really decide. All books were supplied and the supplies were standard paper and pens/pencils. The fact that they had met so many magical and mythical creatures was also helping their decision. Just Before they left them met with a woman of very unique appearance. Tall and skeletal thin with ash white skin and deep set black eyes. Her limbs and fingers seemed to be longer than normal and her dark gray robes looked a bit worn and aged.

"Good day to you all."The woman nodded at them with courtesy and respect and then turned on Harry. "As for you young man...where is your..hug for your mother." Her smile seemed to cut the tension and her open arms were soon filled with a grinning boy.

"Dan , Emma, and Hermione, May I introduce you to the Headmistress. Death Perevell."

Scene Break *******************************

6 years ago. Azkaban Prison.

The one man who could have saved Harry Potter from his fate of punishment and death was sitting in a cell waiting for the next time the Dementors came around. He waited and eventually let himself hope they forgot about him. Oddly though he heard the wailing and shrieking of his guards but they never came near his cell. He spent a lot of time in his Animagus form of a Grim (Larger than normal black dog). Today though he saw one slowly approaching. It looked into the cell then tossed a note inside and left to bother his neighbors.

To, Lord Sirius Orion Black (Padfoot)

We wish to inform you that your godson Harry James Potter has passed on a year ago and that his soul is now in the care of the Perevell Family. You are to be left alone by the Dementors as they fear the Perevells more than a patronus. This is not a prank, that you so love to do. Harold Deathson Perevell is now in charge of the Potter accounts and his 'Rightful' guardians have evidence of your innocence. However getting you cleared is not a priority as it was your 'foolish empty headed rash decision making' that lead to your current imprisonment.

This is the deal. You stay in the prison for 1 more year then you will be removed to a different prison. Where you will stay until Harold's 12th birthday. If you agree to this then please add your blood to the note. Gringotts will keep a copy of it in the Black accounts till you are cleared of the charges or you are dead. Then the next Black can see that you actually were not a 'pigheaded overzealous idiot'.

Matriarch of the House of Perevell

PS, Lily supplied those words if they seem very familiar. Perevells are always close to the spirits.

And Prongs says to smack you one after your transfer.

One year later, the ministry noticed the avoidance of the cell holding Sirius. They did receive word from the goblins regarding some information that Black may be innocent and framed but do to Ministerial connections the only thing they can do is to have Black moved to a new prison location.

The Ministry agreed due to the Dementors becoming agitated with Black's presence lately. He was given to a group of men with red skin and spiked black armor.(1) Who quickly portaled away. The smell of sulfur and a massive wave of heat made the Azkaban guards decided to forget about the whole thing.

Scene Break*********************

Also 6 years ago House of Crowley

Lilith and King Crowley watched with hidden amusement at the antic of their youngest daughter. She is currently 'hiding' behind a couch, watching the little boy who was sitting in Death's lap. The boy was talking to two spirits, both were sad and happy to talk with him. Alice watched closely as they acted like a family, but she was sad too when the boy could not hug them.

She never looked at the other boys like this and she was actually older than she appeared. But the biggest detail was that this child was being raised by Death herself. It also bothered her as to why her father was paying attention to this single soul as well. He never did that before.

She watched the boy get sadder every time he wanted to hug the pair. Finally she had enough and walked over to him. He looked at her in confusion till she got closer and opened her arms. He cried as he leaned into her hug and held on tightly as he let his sadness out. Finally he passed out with a small grin on his face.

Death and the Crowleys were surprised by her actions but the pair of ghost were excited to see him smiling at the end. Later that day they resumed the chat and Harry sat beside Alice holding her hand. She was a bit bigger than him so when it came time for him to rest again, she laid on the couch and held him like a teddy bear. The cuteness was not lost an anyone who saw it.

Death had created a new 'body' for Harry and after a year it had finally settled so he could grow like normal. His core was not in a good state due to the fact he had many bindings as well as the horcrux leeching his magic. The fact of how he died also made it difficult. The only solution was to make his whole body a magic core. That had side effects including having to take naps often and a medicine that kept his magic from tearing through his body.

Affliction of Magic. That's what they called it but it was closer to being 'Affliction to Living'. Alice simply worked with him. And when the Potters told harry he was to be come a Perevell he was worried. Alice told him about the history and that he would always be a Potter and a Perevell, but the original Harry Potter did die. And Now this Harry is 'alive'.

A solution to that was to teach Harry to release his magic by willing it to spin around him, carefully. It allowed him to relax a bit and his magic would not try to hurt him as much. After a few near destructive incidents, they moved the activity outside.

After two more years Alice asked he father and Death if she could court Harry. She was her mother's daughter with that statement. Harry was ok with the idea as he liked he a lot and even stood up for her, despite her being a lot stronger than him. Eventually the King decided to really play his hand and proclaimed Harry to be his successor, also due to their laws (i.e. I'm the king and I say so.), Harry and Alice became betrothed and to be married when he turned ten.

Scene break *****************************

Harry's first day at Magic school was fun but different. He was given different focus items to see what worked but he could not see any difference. He was able to easily use any item from wands to staves, to rings or even Grimoirs. His hand and intent magic was very strong and he even had a feel for the spirit magics thanks to his mother, Death.

Alice noticed that his magic would flare up with this intense emotions and his eyes would shift to a purple flame. Death said that he was tapping into the 'soul fires' and his green eyes were the common color for that magic. Harry just thought it was a pain as he had to be calmer than most kids. Alice loved the clam and mature Harry. She did have a few idiots who tried to demand her attention. Harry was very protective and possessive of her.

The last one who tried had to be released from a massive black skeleton hand that was clutching the poor boy. The fact it was a centaur made the grip even more uncomfortable. The boy's sister was not happy with his actions and asked if Harry would not hate the rest of his family. "Why would I hate them? He did it, not you or them." That sparked a new friendship between the three.

Over time Harry made friends and resolved a few clan to clan rivalries. He had a lot of female friends but they all knew and agreed that Alice was his one and only. They still tease and embarrass him when ever possible.

King Crowley was glad he was already proving to be a great choice for the throne. He even asked why the adults never tried to listen to him like the children did to Harry. He was told that Harry's magic made him a much bigger threat when tempers rose. So listening to the boy who could put a crater in a sparring field with just 'letting his magic out' was the best course of action.
