What he didn't know was the commotion caused by his claiming the Peverell Lordship before James Potter could or the fact that between James and Lily's spending most of the Potter fortune was gone. They were having to be careful with money as their income was coming from their jobs at Hogwarts. Harry also didn't know that his so called parents were looking for him. After a conversation with Oliveander who had asked them in passing about whether they wanted him to make a staff for Harry since his magic was too powerful and not compatible with his wands.

James Potter's eyes bugged out and said "What?"

Oliveander smiled and said "Was that not why you brought young Harry so early to be tested for wand? I I suppose I just assumed that was why as most parents wait till the children are eleven but I didn't ask nor did I mention that a staff was an option he was just too young for it then but he is almost eleven now and a staff takes months to make. If he is going to go to Hogwarts with a foci it will need to be made as soon as possible. Bring him to the shop and I will find out what I need for his staff."

James Potter felt his world tip with Oliveander's words. What had he done? His son was not a squib, would he ever forgive him. He had to go and get him from the muggles as soon as possible.

The sight of the neighbourhood with the cookie cutter houses brought to mind the way he left his son standing there alone after dragging him there without even telling him what was happening. He felt sick, as he also recalled casting the crutio curse on him the beatings that left scars, the neglect never celebrating his birthday or allowing him to do go out and make friends or even play. He realised he knew nothing about the son he disowned.

The door he had just knocked on was answered by a blonde tall skinny woman with a long neck that reminded him of a giraffe. He knew this was his wife's sister he had only met her once when he accompanied Lily to her wedding and between him and Sirius they ruined the day for her in revenge for her making Lily cry. He pushed those thoughts to the back of his mind and said "Hello Petunia, I am here to pick up Harry you do not have to look after him any more."

Petunia sneered at him and said "What are you talking about? There is no-one here by the name of Harry."

James sneered right back and said "Don't lie to me Petunia I left him here with you after Lily spoke to you about leaving him here."

Some comprehension shone in Petunia's eyes as she remembered speaking to her sister about bringing one of her brats to live with her because he did not have magic. She had agreed and had been planning to make the brat's life miserable but he never showed up.

She moved aside and said "You are welcome to come in and check because he is not here he never came in the first place. There is only me my husband and my son in this house."

James walked in and cast a searching spell and came up with nothing. A few more spells and he apparated out headed back home. He was going to need his wife's help as well as to reinstate Harry as part of the family but he needed to find him first.

It was strange for Harry living in a house again. He was used to his trunk tree house in the woods but now he had bought a six bedroomed manor country house and had the goblins place extensive wards to make it unplottable. He added on his own wards to make sure that he was the only one who could get in or out of the place. Goblins were trustworthy to a point especially where money was concerned. It would only take giving the goblin enough gold to convince one to betray his trust and find a loophole in their contract to manipulate it and allow someone entry into his home.

He acquired several house elves to keep up the place and managed to invest in a few companies to make sure he money coming in as well. Harry sat at his kitchen table one morning for breakfast when he opened his morning paper and there the blazing headlines read "MISSING POTTER TWIN, HADRIAN POTTER"

He dropped the paper on the table in shock as he knew that his ex-parents most likely knew about the fact that he had magic. Well he was not going to make it easy for them. He wanted nothing to do with them after what they did to him. He gingerly picked up the paper and read what they had to say about his disappearance. They claimed that he was unhappy in the magical world and they could not quite figure out why and when it got worse when he was eight they decided to try having him live in the muggle world. He seemed much happier there and they decided to let him stay there until he started school. But when they went to check on him the day before he was gone.

Harry gagged when they claimed to love him and just wanted him home where he was safe with them. He knew for a fact that tey knew he had magic when one of them was asked 'was he unhappy because he was a squib?' and James answered 'No my son is not a squib. When he was younger we thought he was because he had such control of his magic he never had accidental magic like other children, it is an easy mistake to make however Oliveander assured us that he does have magic.'

Putting the paper down Harry sighed and said to himself "figures that old goat ratted me out. Why couldn't he leave well enough alone?"

A musical sounding laugh startled him and made him jump. He looked around for the source and saw someone who looked like a teenager long black hair past his shoulders with white tips that seemed to glow at the ends. He was wearing blue denim jeans and a blood red shirt. The boy was easily the most beautiful person Harry had ever seen. Warily he asked "Who are you and how did you get in?"

The boy smiled and said "Hi Hadrian, I'm Harry, I am I suppose your guardian angel. I have been watching over you for a couple of years now. Lets just say it was me that got you out of that poisoners environment you were in and prevented you from being sent into another one even worse than the first."

Hadrian just stared at Harry in disbelief and Harry continued to speak "Didn't you ever think it was weired how you began to understand things no-one your age should be able to ar how you found what you needed for hen you left so easily, or how you managed to find your tree and the wards you cast for the first time jus t worked?"

Hadrian whispered "It was you?"

Smiling Harry said "Yes and no." I gave you the knowledge and the power needed for you to be able to do it."

Hadrian asked "Why?"

No longer smiling Harry said "Hadrian, you have a destiny placed on your shoulders by fate. Despite the power you were granted by the powers that be to complete your destiny it was never going to happen. The anger against your family and what they did to you and what they were going to do to you would fester until even a soul as light as yours darkened and you become the very thing that feeds the nightmares of every person on the planet."

Hadrian's eyes widened at that. Before he left the Potters he was beginning to have fantasies about doing to them what they did to him. He knew it would not have taken much more for him to completely lose himself with the thoughts revenge. Even now he felt the anger swelling up inside him when he remembered what they did to him.

Without waiting for Hadrian to say anything Harry continued "The reason I am here is to tell you that if you do not want to be forced to go to Hogwarts then you have to apply to Beaubatons academy for school. You will find it easier to go there instead of Hogwarts and you will be able to write your OWLS and NEWTS if you go there. Right now Dumbledore has been contacted by James Potter and he is writing a law that will force your hand emancipated or not you are still an eleven year old child. They will make it so that your emancipation is overruled and forced back to Potter manor and if they find out about your lordship James will make sure that you turn over everything to the Potter estate to revive it from where it has fallen."

Hadrian had a look of horror and sadness on his face when he said "Does he ate me that much that he would do that to me after everything else?"

Harry smiled a sad smile and said "I don't think he particularly hates you Hadrian I think he looks down on squibs so much he does not view them as human. To him it was normal, I'm saying it was right but to him the things he did to you were as normal as killing a chicken to make a Sunday roast."

The glare from Hadrian had Harry backtrack a little as he said "Okay bad analogy but I couldn't think of any other way of explaining it to you."

Hadrian sighed and sat back down. "Okay so Beaubatons it is."

Harry sat next to him and said "I have a couple of people who agreed to pose as your parents. You can't go as yourself you will be found and dragged back to England faster than you can say quidditch. "

Hadrian narrowed his eyes and said "and who pray tell are these people who have agreed to pose as my parents?"

Harry coughed and said "Well technically they don't know yet I was going to bring you to them or bring them here and see if you guys would agree."

Hadrian was not impressed "What are you, making it up as go?"

Harry shrugged and said "Yeah kinda, it's not easy making plans when you don't know what is going to happen. At least now we can make plans together. Besides I think you and the people I have in mind will be good for each other, so what do you say about having a Norse god and a genius billionaire for parents?"

Hadrian was speechless, was this guy for real?

Tony was entering his room from the en suite shower where Loki was still lying in bed fast asleep when a flash of fire appeared in front of him. When it cleared He saw Harry and a kid standing beside him looking a little bewilded and clinging stiffly on Harry's arm. Loki had woken up by then and was very happy to see Harry. He got out of bed and hugged Harry before saying "I was beginning to think you would not come back, its been six months."

Harry looked a little shocked and said "It looks like I overshot the date by a few months. I never did quite get used to using time travel I don't usually need to use it."

This brought Tony into the conversation "Time travel?"

With a smile Harry replied "Yes I have actually been away for about two years watching over this little one." Harry's hand pulled Hadrian forward a little bit. before he continued "That is also the reason I brought him here. He needs guardians, he's been through a lot and at the moment risks being returned to those who hurt him."

Harry also introduced Tony and Loki to Harry then took Hadrian to the living room and set him up with some games before returning to talk to Loki and Tony. He told them about Hadrian's home life and how his parents sent him away after abusing him because they thought he had no magic. Loki had scoffed at that and said "No magic? Are they stupid? The kid is a powerhouse and his magic has not even matured yet."

Harry nodded and said "I know that is why I thought of you guys to raise him away from his parents if you are willing to that is. I know I am asking a lot but he is safest with you. I have thought this through if you agree I will give you an adoption potion so that your rights to him cannot be contested. If you choose to stay here in this world that is fine you probably won't need the potion but if you choose to go to Hadrian's home world the potion will be needed and Tony will need magic which I can give him to help protect Harry."

Both Tony and Loki were shocked. Their previous conversation the night before had been about finding somewhere safe to settle down. Tony would not have to worry about SHIELD's betrayal trying to take his inventions when he refused to work with them. They had already destroyed JARVIS and his suits when they couldn't find him the suits would not work no matter what they did, they were attuned to Tony and only Tony. Loki was hiding from his so called family knowing that they would drag him back to Asgard against his will. He had no intention of allowing them to punish him because of some imagined slight. He was done being their scapegoat for everything that went wrong. He was ready for a new beginning as well.

Harry could tell what their decision was long before they said anything and he smiled knowing that little Harry would e in good hands.
