Potter Manor

March 24th 1984

Ever since the disappearance of Voldemort. The wizarding world was in a cheerful mood, literally! The wizards are particularly buzzing with happiness. Jacob was also known as the boy who lived, he was so damn popular in the wizarding world! Stories were written on what happened, the daily prophet was sent and a lot of other things.

The Potters were all soaking the fame and became arrogant and prideful. They were like the second Malfoy family. In public, the Potters were smiling and charming. BAH, only a blind person sees them that way. If you listen closely to how James and Lily talk, you could already tell they're bragging. They were preening peacocks I tell you!

But what the public didn't know, was that the Potters has another child. The brother of the boy-who-lived, Harry James Potter.

Harry was a quiet person, intelligent for his age too. He has dark midnight hair and emerald green eyes, pale smooth skin and skinny. He was always staying at the manor when the Potters go to public or meetings.

That's why nobody knows him.

Harry would be in the library reading about wizards and muggles, he would learn about etiquette and languages. He even realized he has an eidetic memory. Sometimes he would be in his room, meditating or doing wandless magic. He also has a unique magic that makes the shadow move and helps him, he could even travel through shadows. He likes his privacy of practicing and learning but...

Why do his parents not love him?

As smart as he is, Harry is still is a child, his emotions get a hold of him from times to times, making him question the reason why James and Lily don't love him.

He tried so HARD to appease them. He tried so hard to make them notice him. He tried so hard, to make them proud of him. But they JUST WON'T NOTICE!

Harry would try to make something with his wandless magic, but they ended up praising Jacob for 'his' work. Harry would do accidental magic, and they would think that Jacob did it.

They didn't even remember it was also his birthday! Unbelievable!

They even punished him for doing something he shouldn't do. Like, saying lies about Jacob, hurting Jacob, being jealous about Jacob.

"Daddy, it was me who made it float!"

"Don't lie, Harry!"

He would get hit at the head.

"Mom, Jacob hit me!"

"Don't say any nonsense about your brother!"

He would get a slap on the cheeks.

"Dad it wasn't me-"

"DON'T HURT YOUR BROTHER YOU LITTLE WORTHLESS RUNT"

He would get hit by dad's belt at random places, head, back, legs and hands.

They didn't bat an eye when Jacob bullies him, taunts him, punches him, pinches and kicks him. He would get insulted by Jacob and his best mate Ron.

"Squib!"

"You're worthless!"

"Freak!"

"Mom and dad don't love you because they don't care about you!"

It hurts so so much! Harry just doesn't know why they're so... like this about him. Don't they care? Don't they love me too? In times like these, he learned how to control his emotions. But he still felt sad and hateful.

But the shadows comforts him. When Harry gets sad or wanting to cry, he would go into the darkest corner of the room and let the shadows comfort him. The shadows would always be there for him. After he was punished or neglected, the shadows would always be there for him. That's why he likes dark places, it's the place where he felt comfortable with.

The Shadow is my only friend. Best friend.

Outside of the Potter Manor

A tall five year old girl was standing at the window, watching as the Potters dote on Jacob, the brat-who-lived, while Harry was at the side watching. A look of wanting appearing on his face while he held a book about potions.

This girl has long black hair, blood red eyes, and pale skin. She has an aristocratic face while her face shows no emotions, but she felt sorry for Harry and angry at the Potters.

She was wearing a white shirt, black jeans and a trench coat with a Hood. She wore dragon hide boots and black gloves. This is Olivander Nightling.

Now let me give you a history of her family. The Nightlings are the most ancient and noble house in the wizarding world, they're really rich and a powerful family. They are heard to be dangerous and leaning mostly dark but grey nonetheless.

The Nightlings are the definition of purebloods. Charismatic, sly, cunning and ambitious, the perfect Slytherins. They're higher than the Blacks and Potters, really important and when you provoke them, your life career is over in an instant. They're also taught to be sadistic and emotionless, quick-witted and smart.

Now that's done! Let's continue. Olivander has been ordered to watch Harry Potter by her father after she was old enough and mature, so she did. And what she saw disgusted her, making her hate the Potter and wanting to take Harry away from them. She was also interested in how Harry was able to control the shadows.

Olivander was watching Harry stand up and go outside with his book in hand. She quickly hide behind the bushes, she watches Harry opened the door and stepped out. Then, she saw what looks like Harry crying.

"Why, why won't they love me?" Harry cried. James and Lily didn't even notice him go outside. They constantly paid no attention to me.

All of a sudden, Harry heard the bushes rattle. His head snapped up and saw a tall girl that looks about 6 or 5 staring at him. She looked so... pretty. Her face shows worries and her red eyes were glowing.

"Hey... um... are you alright?" she asked while taking a step toward. Harry took a step back, "N-no... yes... I-I don't know... who are you?" He asked.

She glanced around and looks back at him, "I'm Olivander Enziah Nightling." she bowed gracefully.

Harry's eyes widen, 'Nightling?! No way!'. "Y-You're a Nightling?" he gaped. 'Nightlings are considered the most influential family in the whole British wizarding world!' he thought, Olivander just chuckled at his reaction. "Yes, I am a Nightling," she said while smiling a bit, she doesn't know why, but she felt protective of Harry. She even let herself smile, not the sadistic way, but a genuine way. She then saw the look on his face, "If you're wondering what I am doing here, then I'll answer you. Only if you stop gaping like a fish." she teased. Harry quickly shuts his mouth while blushing a bit, 'Cute' she thought.

"That's better. Now, I'm here because my father ordered me to watch you. Said you were special and needed to be watched, since I'm mature enough to go outside alone, he chose me. So there ya go." she casually said while conjuring a black mixed green flower, she gives the flower to Harry while smiling. "You now have me as a watcher. You can come to me every day since I'm doing my duty of well... watching you." she pats his head. Harry was in awe, he couldn't believe he was getting watched by a Nightling. Harry smiles widely, making him look cuter.

But then he frowns, "What if James and Lily see you." he asked worriedly. Olivander huffs, "They won't, I'll put on a strong notice-me-not spell when I'm alone. Plus, maybe I can glamour myself into you and act like you. I haven't tested my acting yet." she grins maniacally. Harry shudders at that grin. "Actually..." Olivander looks at Harry, "Can you tell me how you control the shadows?" she asked.

Harry tilts his head, "What do you mean?" he doesn't know what she meant. Harry wasn't controlling the shadows, they just came to his need whenever he's sad or crying or angry. Just like reading his mind, she says "Well, the shadows came to your need right? Are you controlling it or does it felt... living with you? Does it come randomly like a living thing?". Harry hums, "I don't know, it just feels natural. The shadows always response when I'm sad or crying...".

Olivander was confused but then shrug it off. "Tempus." she murmured, it was already 7:27 pm. She needed to go home. She turns to Harry, "I need to go, father wants me to go back home early if I was able to do his order. I can ask him if I can stay longer 'kay?". Harry nods sadly but smiled, "See ya Olivander!" she nods and pats his head. She then turns around and uses her favorite transportation, she smokes away. Harry was once again, awed at her. Then he smiled widely, "I have a new friend!".

He didn't see two certain red-haired Weasleys watching him at the window with grins.
