This is one of my new stories that I decided to post to see if anyone like it...I know a lot of you like my other stories, Bellatrix's Hidden Daughter and What's Next?, and hope that they will be updated soon but, and I really hate doing this bc I know it sucks when a story you like it put on hold, I won't be updating for a long while...I'm stuck on those stories for now and can't seem to get my imagination up and running, but I'm open to having new ideas thrown at me...Anyway, I don't own anything of Harry Potter, I'm just using it for my own purposes...Hope you enjoy!
Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, received an urgent fire-call the night of October 31, 1981. The current Dark Lord, Lord Voldemort, had just attacked the home of two important Order of the Phoenix members, Lily and James Potter. Immediately aparating over to Godric's Hollow, where the Potters' were hiding, Albus arrived just in time to see the green light of the Killing Curse, Avada Kadavra, light up an upstairs bedroom. Rushing into the house, he found James unconscious against a wall. Quickly heading up the stairs to the bedroom of the Potters' twin children, Albus saw the door blown off the hinges and Lily laying unconscious in front of the crib that held the twins, Harrison James Potter and Natalia Rose Potter.
Looking around the room for the Dark Lord, he saw a pile of black robes with smoke rising from it. Looking back at the crib, he realized one of the twins was the prophesized child, the defeater of the Dark Lord. Walking over to the crib, he picked up each child and examined them, noticing the 'V' shaped cut over Harry's heart and a lightening bolt shaped scar on the side of Natalia's neck. Figuring the most obvious choice was Harry because of the 'V', Albus Dumbledore named Harry Potter the Boy-Who-Lived. Reviving the twins parents, he told them that Harry was the one who defeated Voldemort, also telling them that it would be for the best to send Natalia away, as she would just be jealous of her brother's fame.
James and Lily agreed, writing a quick letter to Lily's sister, Petunia Dursley, explaining what had happened and asking for them to raise Natalia. Later that night, Dumbledore aparated to Surrey, walking up to Number 4 and placing the little girl on the doorstep with the note tucked under her blanket. When he stood up, he noticed another form emerge from the darkness, Minerva McGonnogal. He ignored his Deputy Headmistress as she tried to persuade him to not leave Natalia there. After a few minutes, Minerva stalked away and disaparated. Nodding to himself, Dumbledore walked away and disaparated, never noticing the figure in the shadows watching the scene. The figure walked up the walk of Number 4 and crouched down, picking the toddler up and walking away. Back in the shadows, the figure looked down at the girl and turned her head to the side slightly to look at the scar. Smiling softly down at the sleeping baby, he whispered, "You will be a powerful witch one day, Little One. I don't understand how your family or the headmaster couldn't tell. But no worries, Little One, I will take you somewhere where you'll be loved no matter what."
The figure waved his hand, making a black portal appear out of nowhere. Looking around once again, he turned to the portal and stepped through it with the still sleeping Natalia.
In a castle in Scotland, four people were eating dinner while they waited for their mentor to return. These four people were Godric Gryffindor, a red-haired wizard about 6'3" and muscular build, Helga Hufflepuff, a blonde-haired witch about 5'4" and lithe build, Rowena Ravenclaw, a black-haired witch about 5'6" and muscular but lithe build, and Salazar Slytherin, a black-haired wizard about 6'4" and powerful build, the Founders of Hogwarts. It was summer break for their students, so the only noise in the Great Hall was their quiet talking. They looked up when a black portal formed in front of their table, watching as their mentor stepped through with a small bundle in his arms.
"Merlin, what have you got in your arms?" Salazar asked curiously.
Merlin looked up from the child in his arms to his four apprentices, smiling somewhat sadly. "This here is Natalia Potter, she is from the future that I went to. Her family was attacked by a future Dark Lord, who after stunning her parents tried to kill her and her twin brother. He shot a killing curse at them but it was rebounded and destroyed him. The headmaster from that time thought that her twin, Harry, was the one that defeated Voldemort, the Dark Lord, and said that Natalia should be sent away because she would just be jealous of her brother's fame. Her parents," Merlin practically spat parents out. "Agreed with the headmaster and left her with her mother's sister, who hates anything magic. I saw what would happen if she were to be left there with those muggles, they would have beat her and treated her like a slave. I could not let that happen, especially since she is the one who defeated Voldemort."
All four Founders were disgusted that someone could condemn their child to such a fate. It especially hit Helga and Rowena hard, since they couldn't have children of their own, something they really wished for. Godric spoke up first.
"What will happen to the child? Will she stay here in our time?" he asked his mentor.
"I would like to ask if all four of you could raise her together," Merlin asked softly. "Train and teach her everything you know, and when it's time for her schooling she will be sent back to her time to attend Hogwarts and holidays and such, she would come back here."
The founders looked at each other for a minute before turning back to Merlin. This time, it was Rowena who spoke.
"Merlin, we would love to raise Natalia as our own," she said, smiling at her mentor. Standing, she walked around the table and took the baby from Merlin. "What's her full name?"
"Natalia Rose Potter," Merlin said, watching as the other three founders gathered around Rowena and Natalia. "Start her training as soon as possible, and when she is eight, I will start to train and teach her also."
The Founders watched as Merlin disappeared after he finished talking before turning back to the small bundle in Rowena's arms. Looking around at her friends, Rowena asked, "Who is going to be Nat's parents? How will we raise her?"
"Why don't we all be her parents?" Helga asked, looking up at the others. "She could call Sal and 'Ric father and dad and Ro and I mother and mum."
Nodding, Salazar said, "I like that idea, she can call me dad while she calls 'Ric father."
"And she can call me mother while she calls Helga mum," Rowena said, smiling at her family. Looking back down at Natalia she asked, "Do you think we should all do a Blood Adoption, make her really ours?"
"That sounds like a good idea, it will make her our heirs," Godric said, looking at the others. "It will also make her magical core bigger than an average wizard's, making her even more powerful than she already is."
Nodding, Rowena said, "She will be having accidental magic a lot earlier than most others, I believe at least when she is three it will start."
"Lets do the Blood Adoption tonight, and tomorrow we can at least start teaching her the basics of magic," Helga said, taking Natalia from Rowena when the black-haired witch left the Great Hall to gather the necessary items needed for the Blood Adoption. After everything was set up, Helga gently laid Natalia on a conjured altar. Godric, Rowena, Helga, and Salazar started chanting some bonding spells. When Natalia started glowing red, green, yellow and blue, all four of her future parents took a golden dagger and cut a small incision in their palms. They also made a small cut on Natalia's hand making the baby cry. All this was part of the ritual. Rowena took a few drops of her blood and made them fall on Natalia's cut hand. Godric, Salazar, and Helga did the same then they took Natalia's hand and dropped a few drops of her blood on their own hands. After the blood sharing was done all five of them started glowing with a bright white light. A few seconds later the light disappeared and all they were left with was a small scar on the palm of their hands. The blood adoption was done.
Let me know if you like it or hated it...Personally, I think this could be one of my better stories..
