Chapter 2: Headstrong

"Headstrong to take you on, headstrong to take on anyone"

– Trapt - Headstrong

Knock knock. The noise on the door rapped away until Vernon answered it. "Hello, how may I help you?" There standing in front of Vernon in the middle of the day was a woman who was about 5 foot 7 and wearing a suit, pencil skirt and all. She had green eyes and black hair and was holding a leather black brief case.

"I am here for Mr. Potter. I understand he graduated yesterday correct?" She said melodically.

"Um, yes what do you want with my nephew?" Vernon asked slightly nervous.

"I am here about a business proposition Mr. Dursley. Now can you please inform him that I a Miss Darcy is here to see him from Wolfram and Hart."

Harry came out of the shadows with a smile on his face, "I hoped you'd say that,"

"Ah, hello Mr. Potter, I will be your personal secretary once you sign these papers" She said motioning to her brief case, "They are only a few procedural papers, and then the job is yours."

Vernon had an odd look in his eyes, "Job?"

"Yes uncle, I've been hired as the head of a department at the Wolfram and Hart Law Firm and will be moving to London." Harry said with a grin on his face yet his voice was so calm and informative.

"So, Boss where would you like to sign these paper?"

"The living room table should due," Harry replied.

5 Hours Later

"Now with that paper work out of the way, the question becomes do you want to live in a flat, a mansion, a house, or something else?"

"A house will do Miss Darcy."

"Call me Sarah, boss."

"Alright, Sarah a 2 story house near the law firm would be lovely." Harry informed her.

"Since you are a little too young for driving we will provide you with a limo for transportation to and from work." Sarah said smiling.

"Thank you Sarah"

"Wait a minute, Harry is this really going to be worth it?" Vernon frantically asked.

"Uncle, I am getting paid $2 million a month or 1,203,568 pounds a year plus a house and a limo. Yes I am sure. Now if you two will excuse me I need to pack up." Harry said matter-of-factly.

"Actually boss, the Head of the Firm has asked that I take you shopping for new things. Everything from furniture to clothing. You can forget your old things and allow the Firm to take care of you." Sarah told him.

Harry nodded, "Alright, let's go then."

"You may want to say good bye now, after the shopping trip we are getting on a private jet to Wolfram and Hart, meanwhile company workers will purchase and furnish your house. When we arrive I shall take you straight home."

"Alright then shopping it is, good bye Uncle. See you around." Harry said and walked out of #4 Privit Drive, hoping to never return again.

Harry's shopping trip started with picking wall paper. He ended up choosing mostly white, black, and red citing them as his favorite colors. He also bought black furniture for just about everything. The tailor was next and Sarah told him she had a special place they were going to go for his clothing.

"Here we will get you both mystical and normal dress clothes. You will be representing us in the magical and human portions of the world therefore you must be able to fit in either way." Sarah informed him.

Harry was magically measured and then let loose upon the store to pick out outfits. He ended up getting 24 total. He bought 10 human suits that ranged from grey to navy and black. He also ended up getting some pin striped ones. His favorite suit was pure black with a burgundy under coat. Then he also had bought 10 wizard robes. They were each different colors for different events but every color was a dark one: Dark green, dark red, dark blue, black, and grey. Sarah recommended Harry get four extra robes. One was dark green with silver under coat and silver buttons. One was burgundy with a golden undercoat and golden buttons. One navy and bronze and the last one was black with yellow accents. Harry had no idea why she would suggest such robes but bought them anyways.

"For some extra cash I can charm these suits to grow with you and also provide a bit of protection," The lady working at the store said.

"Alright, then please do so." Harry said.

Sarah then handed over a credit card to the lady who swiped it and said, "Pleasure doing business which such an illustrious office as Wolfram and Hart."

"The pleasure is all ours madam," Sarah said and then together her and Harry walked out.

The jet was the next stop and then home sweet home.

"You ready to take on Wolfram and Hart boss?" Sarah asked trying to make conversation on the ride.

"Of course, it'll be a piece of cake," Harry said confidently.

"Well, it may be harder than you think. There are some things we didn't mention." Sarah said trying to look semi-ashamed but failing miserably.

"Like what?"

"Most people consider us an 'evil' law firm." Sarah whispered pretending it was a secret and letting out a small giggle.

"And you didn't tell me this why?" Harry yelled.

"Because at the time you would have likely turned down the offer. So I was instructed to get the papers signed and then tell you. " She said cheerfully, "The partners wouldn't have it any other way."

"So what makes you evil?"

"Well some of our clients do things like eat babies, and ritual human sacrifices, but they would do that with or without our firm."

"So basically your clients are evil not the firm itself." Harry asked intrigued.

"Oh don't get me wrong we kill employees, we kill other people, we have even helped stage the apocalypse a time or two. But most of the time we are fine…not good but still okay… except for the killing employees deal, that's a daily basis kind of thing."

"So I could die" Harry demanded fear growing in his young eyes.

"Surprisingly no, the partners want you alive so that wasn't part of your contract. In fact we wrote in there that you get to keep your soul and life no matter what. I on the other hand could even die and I'd still be working for them."

"Okay then… and what exactly do you guys want me to do for you?"

"Well for the first year we just mainly want you studying laws: laws of physics, society, magic, demons. Basically we want you to know everything you can. You will get to know the laws more extensively then anyone. Granted for the basic laws of society we were just going to implant that in your head. However, the laws of magic demonic and otherwise we want you to study yourself. Your department will not be created until after you go to school but until then we will pay you to learn." She said smiling.

"Alright, so I'll be sitting in a Library all day?"

"No, an office. You only need one book after all."

"Now boss I think the plane is landing. Time to take you home and you start working first thing tomorrow. Well actually you are getting your implant tomorrow but same thing."

"Alright, I'm ready to take it on." Harry flashed her a smile as the plane went down and landed on Wolfram and Hart. They exited the plane and headed off to Harry's new home.
