Chapter 9
Yuskue stepped outside of the house, the look on Phoenix's face, honest to god, scared him. He shivered, didn't want to be on the receiving end of THAT face.
"I pity the poor souls that get in his way." Yuskue muttered.
"Why, hello young man." An old grandfatherly voice said. "By any chance is young Harry inside?" Yuskue looked at the area the voice came from. An old man with the longest beard he has ever seen was standing there.
"Who is this Harry?" He asked slowly backing away when he noticed a mad twinkle in his eye.
"Oh, now don't give me that my boy. You've been living with him for, oh around 9 years? Very ingenious, might I add, that you had him behind wards the first 3 years about 7 hours a day." Yuskue was sue the old man was mad now, I mean look at him. He HAS to be insane.
"Listen up old man, the one whom I am living with is my adopted brother, who's name is PHOENIX!"
"Well, my boy. That is where you are wrong. He was, and still is Harry Potter." Yuskue distinctly remembered how he had told them what his old name was, and the old, crazy, out-of-his-mind, off-his-rocker, insane old man said, "EXACTLY, my boy. Your brother needs to attend my school, he needs to learn to control his abilities." Yuskue looked at the old man suspiciously.
"What do you mean abilities?"
"Very simple, my boy. Your brother has magic."
"Nope."
"What was that, young man? Why would you say that?"
"It's not my decision for my little brother to go. He has to want to go himself."
"Well then let's ask him!"
"Ask me what?" The voice of phoenix came from behind Yuskue. Yuskue thanked his lucky stars that Phoenix could disguise his demonic traits.
"Well my boy, how would you like to attend my school for magic?" Phoenix thought for a moment. He shrugged.
"Sure why not?"
The old man's face lit up in glee.
"Well let's get started!" The school year starts in a month. We need to catch you up! You've missed 3 years!"
"Phoenix glared at him.
"We COULD put me with the freshmen. Or I could have dual enrollment." The old man looked thoughtful.
"That's a wonderful idea, my boy!" Phoenix smiled, this was turning out exactly as he had planned. The old man was thinking something similar. Not that anyone else knew.
Finally, he's going to Hogwarts.
