Chapter 5
The ministry of magic was a buzz as word of Harry Potter Calling a Conference ran around the building. Aeneas sat next to Severus Snape and Avallach who both sat next to him waiting in the main room where reporters were flashing cameras as he was talking to Snape.
"So what potions shall we begin first master?"
Severus smirked at the boy who didn't care that everyone just heard him address him as Master.
"I was thinking maybe we would start with simple healing potions and then move on to harder potions that the medic witch will need for the coming school year."
Aeneas sat wearing black robes just like Snape's with no design on them and no symbols. He wore black skinny jeans and a button up black shirt. His black hair was tied back by two tiny braids that came behind his head that showed the strikes of red, blue, green and white in his hair nicely. With his arms crossed he sat with his leg cross over and looked almost like Snape was sitting.
Avallach looked over at his grandson and smirked.
"I see you are once again obvious to those around you listening to your conversation."
Aeneas smirked at him.
"Ah but grandfather, you raised me to not care what others said about me, we all have free will and its what we choose to do with that will that defines who we are as a person."
The reporters continued to write down what was being said between Aeneas Avallach and Professor Snape till the minister arrived.
"ALL RISE FOR THE MINESTER OF MAGIC!"
Everyone stood up except for Aeneas and Avallach. Everyone looked at them when Aeneas smirked.
"We are governed by Avalon law not your magic laws. Therefore we choose not to stand."
The minister looked at Avallach and Aeneas and smiled politely at the reporters.
"It is true those who live by Avalon law are not subjected to our laws."
Aeneas waited as the minister told of his brave parent's dying against he-who-must-not-be-named. Also known as Lord Voldemort and that he had been raised by Merlin on Avalon and was returning to the magical world to learn of his parents, and the magic they were taught seeing as by Merlin's law which he was subjected to follow, must attend a magical school come the age of 11 years since birth.
Turning to Aeneas he held out his hand.
"May I introduce to you all, Harry Potter!"
Aeneas stood up and walked to the mike.
"First I would like to make a note for everyone who reads this report in the papers or is watching as I speak. Harry Potter died 11 years ago. He died the night his parents gave their lives for him to insure he did not parish that night Lord Voldemort attacked on October 31st, 1980. My name is and has been for my entire life Aeneas Fáelán. By Right of Avalon, and thanks to my Master Merlin himself who taught me the magic I have within me, I have two names; Harry Potter when I need to be and Aeneas for everything else. I will only answer to Harry Potter when I am signing Federal Documents unless there is a way to have my name changed minister?"
Fudge stood up and smiled.
"Of course there is, we will take care of it the moment we have completed here."
Aeneas smirked.
"I also would like to announce I have been chosen to as Potion Master Severus Snape's Apprentice my first year of Hogwarts."
Severus smirked as everyone gasped and began to franticly write down what they just heard.
Avallach laughed and Aeneas turned to him.
"What's so funny grandfather?"
"Only that Merlin is not here to see their faces. It is very unheard of a first year being taken as an apprentice."
Severus smirked himself.
"Yes it is, but not everyone was trained by Merlin the great themselves or lived on Avalon now did they?"
When the conference was over Aeneas followed the minister into his office where he signed the name change documents, the apprentice documents and a document that gave him all the Potter files, wills and anything else that the ministry had collected the night they died.
Seveurs stood waiting at the elevator to the Muggle world while Aeneas said goodbye to his grandfather.
"I shall come visit you for Christmas I promise."
Avallach smiled and hugged him close.
"Don't let them control you. And try and control your anger that is your one weakness. And don't forget to train yourself in the morning."
"I will."
"Blessed be."
"Blessed be."
With a wave of his hand Avallach opened a portal to Avalon and was gone.
Turning to Snape Aeneas smirked.
"Ready sir."
"Good lets go you're to meet the Weasley's at Gringott's Wizarding Bank."
And they climbed into elevator when they got up to the Muggle world they waited for a car that arrived and took them to Diagon Ally. There Aeneas walked inside and everyone fell silent.
"By The Gods it's Harry Potter."
Harry sighed board when Severus placed a hand on his shoulder. "You are wrong Harry Potter died 11 years ago, this is Aeneas Fáelán now and please reframe from calling him his old name."
Everyone nodded and shook his hand and thanked him for taking out Voldemort, although no one would say his name because of fear.
That's when he met Professor Quirlle. He refused to shake his hand and when Aeneas looked into his eyes he knew right then and there Voldemort had returned, and was living off of Quirlle's life source.
'Master, professor Quirlle is being drained of his life force.'
'And how would you know this Aeneas?'
'Merlin taught me to see when a life force is being drained and by what or in this case who.'
'Who is draining him?'
'Lord Voldemort.'
Severus almost tripped when he looked at Aeneas in the face.
'Aeneas that is no joking matter, and besides he died that night your mother died.'
'No, it stripped him of his body, he's using an item called a Horcrux, he uses it to stay alive, he latterly split his soul more than once to in all purposes he is immortal. If you remove his turban I can vouch with my magic you will find another body there.'
'I will keep an eye out on him this year and if it is true then we will take action.'
'Yes, sir.'
Severus then stopped and tapped a sequence on the brick wall before them and smirked at Aeneas he it opened to reveal Diagon ally full of witches and wizards and children all buying supplies for school, work, and anything else they may need.
"Welcome Aeneas, to Diagon ally."
