Harry woke to someone talking. He sat up rubbing his eyes and smiled. Tom was talking to Severus.
"Ah, I'm sorry did we wake you, honey?" Tom asked caressing Harry's cheek.
"No. " Harry said, "I thought I heard you say Remus was here."
"Unfortunately. " Severus drawled.
"I must see him." Harry declared. "He's mostly the reason I'm alive! He took care of me the best he could! Sirius sometimes did but he favors Jamie and gives into peer pressure way too easily. My parents and Dumbledore said he shouldn't pay attention to me because Jamie needed all of his attention. Please let me see Remus."
"Come, love." Tom held his arm out. Harry fled to his side clinging to him. "Don't forget your new partner."
Severus found him holding Harry's hand as Tom walked with his arm around Harry holding Harry tightly to his side. They had just entered the thrown room.
"Pup." Remus stood there and was now smiling. He was smart enough not to move. "Care to introduce me to your friends?"
"Remus." Harry said, shyly, he blushed, " I'm an Incubus/Squib Tom and Severus are my partners."
"Sirius told me." Remus said, lightly. "I do not care what you are as long as you are safe."
"Okay." Harry said, simply, he looked up at Tom. "I'd like to greet Remus."
Severus let go of Harry's hand and Tom released Harry. Harry walked over and hugged Remus who held him tightly but not tight enough to hurt him then let him go. Harry returned to his partners. Tom's arm was instantly around him and Severus took his hand. They walked to the throne. Severus sat on the steps while Harry sat in Tom's lap he still held Harry's hand. This is what Tom had told him to do.
"What is a were wolf who hates what he is doing here?" Tom asked.
"He came to see me of course." Harry said, "Dumbledore has finally turned everyone against him." He was of course reading Remus' mind. "He's worried about me and he wants to see someone named Fenrir Greybeck."
"That would be me." A man said coming in , he smiled at Remus. "Hello, pup."
"I'm the pup." Harry said, pouting . "Remus always calls me pup."
"You are my pup." Remus chuckled, "Fenrir changed me so I am his pup. "
"I don't think I like how Mr. Fenrir thinks of his pup." Harry frowned. "I also do not like Mr. Fenrir because I've heard dad tell Jamie how you were changed. Mr. Fenrir is like your dad because he changed you, correct? That would make his thoughts towards you very bad indeed."
Remus suddenly growled at Fenrir who smirked seductively at him.
"TOM!"
"Crucio!' Fenrir crashed to the floor screaming. Harry was up and pulling Remus away from the other were wolf.
"A father should not think like that toward his son." Harry huffed. "Come on, Remus, it's time for my lunch and you look like you could use some food yourself. "
"Pup, listen, that's not how were wolves work. " Remus chuckled. "Fenrir is in no way a parental figure of mine. I am a pup because I am younger than him. James had no right to tell Jamie anything. Please have your partner stop..."
"No." Harry said stubbornly pulling on Remus' arm like a little kid who wanted their parents attention. The yelling had stopped . Fenrir was laying on the ground staring at them. "He hurt you! Now come on it's time for lunch! Tom doesn't like when I don't eat he's having Sev make me special Nutrition Potions. I heard him say it. "
Remus sighed he was explaining werewolves to Harry over lunch with a man who was scared of and hated him and the Dark Lord. Harry was asking a question a minute of course that had lead to Remus explaining that Harry had been brought up Muggle because he had no magic.
"Lily raised you as a Muggle?!" Severus growled, he grabbed Harry and hugged him tightly. "You poor thing. You need books! Lots of books! I'm taking you shopping at once!"
"I like books." Harry said, leaning into the touch. "I want to learn about your world."
"Our world." Severus corrected, pulling Harry into his lap and holding, " This is your world as well."
"no it's not." Harry said, in a mournful tone. "I'm a Squib . I have no magic."
"You are a player." Tom cut in he was seething and wanted nothing more than to kill the Potter's. "How does your brother treat you?"
"My brother is unsure about me." Harry said, "He wants to love me but he he's afraid of rebelling against Dumbledore and our parents. "
Tom nodded to himself. He would get rid of the Potter parents and take the boy.
"Which of you is the eldest?"
"Harry is." Remus cut in understanding. "Four minuets . James has tried everything he can to disown him but has no legal standing to do so. I suggest a quick trip to Gringotts. "
"Agreed. " Tom said, "Come , love. We're going on a field trip."
Harry's eyes got huge.
Harry was signing whatever paper Tom told him to sign he'd practiced how to use a quill over the last two months and had mastered it he was working on calligraphy . He signed elegantly where he was told. He didn't understand but was promised that he would later.
Finally, they went out into Diagon Ally Harry was amazed. Tom held him close to him and Severus and Remus flanked them. People would glance at them or stare. The Potters stared as the group stopped at the Ice Cream shop. Harry licked his cone happily.
"HARRY!" Harry turned and Jamie slammed into him sending his ice cream to the ground. "Oh, I'm sorry, I'll buy you another one. "
"Here you go." Tom handed Harry another cone. Harry began licking on it.
"I've been so worried about you. " Jamie said, "Are you okay?"
"Tom and Sev and Remus are taking care of me." Harry replied, "Sev promised me books! He said I can have all the books I want!"
"That's great." Jamie smiled, ignoring that his best friends Ron and Hermione were pulling on his arm trying to get him to leave with them. He jerked away from them. "I know how much you love to read. You've grown..."
"Nutrition Potion. " Harry said, "One with every meal. "
"I'm really glad." Jamie sighed in relief. "Hey did you grow your hair out? You can't tell we're twins anymore."
"You could always tell us apart by our eyes." Harry said, licking his treat. "I have mom's eyes and you have dads eyes. "
"Well, yeah,..." Jamie shrugged, "Anyhow, I like your hair maybe I'll grow mine out."
"You'll do no such thing!" James Potter cried loudly. "Jamie, come we must get your school supplies!"
"Come with us, Harry." Jamie said, brightly , "Do you have an owl so we can write?"
"No." Harry replied. He was wiping his hands on a napkin he then threw away. His treat was done. "I can't go with you any way. I see a quest I must do."
"Quest?" Hermione Granger asked. "What's that about?"
"Oh, Harry, these are my friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Hermione, Ron, this is my older twin brother Harry Potter. "
"Why doesn't he come to school?" Hermione asked.
"I'm a Squib." Harry said, "I became a player not long ago ."
"What ARE you talking about?" Hermione demanded.
"You don't know everything about Squibs, Hermione." Jamie said, with a laugh. "In the magic world some Squibs develop into players...how do I put this in Muggle terms."
"Am I correct in my assumption that you are a Muggleborn, Miss. Granger?"
"Yes."
"Then I am like a hero on an RPG on one of your computer games." Harry then cocked his head to the side. "Though maybe not so much a hero. Squibs like me develop skills and powers akin to a gamer but it's all based on the class we get. Classes are most times derived from a parents lineage. My class came from my father's creature inheritance."
"Oh, what are you then?" Hermione asked.
"I'm an Incubus class. " Harry said, shrugging, he blushed a bit as she went crimson. Jamie was gaping a bit. "Contrary to popular belief Incubi don't actually rely on sex to live. They rely on sexual energy . I feed through kissing nothing more. " he rolled his eyes. "The point is you understand what I am now?"
"Yes, of course I do." Hermione nodded, tucking her bushy brown hair behind her ear and clearing her throat. "I love playing strategy RPG's."
"I have never actually played one so I'm rather in the dark about how I am to handle this." Harry spoke to her as he leaned against Tom who wrapped his arms around his waist. " I live with mostly Pure-Bloods and Half-Bloods who were raised in the wizard world or come from a time where computers were just in their infancy ."
"Oh, I see you are at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to your powers aren't you?" Hermione frowned.
"I am yes." Harry replied. "It is rather annoying."
"I would imagine so. " Hermione said, frowning. "Do you have access to a computer? That was a stupid question of course you don't you most likely live in a highly magical area that would make it impossible to operate muggle electronics in the area."
"Correct."
"That does seem rather distressing ." Hermione frowned, "Not being able to access one's power to the fullest would drive me mad."
"The prey tell why do you go to Hogwarts?" Harry asked, "From what I have learned when Dumbledore took over as Headmaster he switched the curriculum to Neutral and Light magic only. He also dropped more than half of the classes that the school used to have. Hogwarts used to teach Dark, Neutral , Light and General magics the four ruling magics from what I've been told over the last two months, it is taught at every magic school outside of Britain why not here? Also other magical schools outside of Britain start schooling at age 5. You are indeed having your potential limited. At this rate you will never access your true power. " He saw he was making Hermione and Jamie both think hard. "Well, it was nice meeting you, Miss. Granger." he grabbed her hand and bowed over it kissing the back of her hand. He then pressed back into Tom letting go of her. "Bye , Jamie, I'm sure your owl will be allowed through the wards as long as he doesn't have any charms on him that would redirect the mail or any Tracking Charms."
With that he lead his group away . Tom had taught him all that. Tom had taught him what he told Hermione and he believed every word of it.
"She is interested. " Harry told Tom. " She wants to hear more of what we have to say and she's interested in my power. " He looked up at the men beaming. "Jamie knows the truth! He wants to be with us! He wants to be around me and love me as brothers because he never got the chance. He knows the path he is being lead down is wrong. He wants out and he wants free."
Harry had had an idea later that night before bed he wanted a fire place in his room and a bed like a nest of blankets and pillows on the floor in front of it. He'd read it in a book and liked the idea. They'd given him just that and made it as soft as a cloud for him. He loved it and he unlocked Mood Settings sure he had gotten the idea out of a romance novel he'd somehow gotten his hands on, he wasn't sure where the book had come from, but he hadn't been thinking of sex when he'd asked for his new sleeping arrangements. He'd been rather embarrassed. He guessed it would be great when he was actually ready to have sex.
