Please Enjoy!
Harry ran through the trees with his eyes closes as he listened to the silent snow fall. The soft flutters fell into his hair that whipped behind him. His tongue darted out to catch a few flakes before he soft suddenly as he listened closer to the right. With lifted brows in wonder, Harry slowly made his way towards the odd sounds.
He was caught unguarded when something crashed into his side and bite him hard. A deep burning sensation had him cursing as he threw the something off of him. When he opened his eyes to stare at the thing that had bite him, he snarled. With his lips twisted in a nasty snarl, Harry launched himself at the newborn. He broke its neck before ripping it's head off. He through the head over his shoulder before he started to rip at the other limbs. Once each limb was off, Harry looked at the pile and lit a match. He throw it over his shoulder as he walked away. The smell of burning flesh made him smile cruelly.
Walking with his hands in his pockets, Harry didn't recognized the newborn that had launched itself towards his body. With an another burning sensation, Harry felt the ground leave him. He had been flown into the stray of battle. He landed harshly into someone else who had been about to beheaded.
With both snarling as they stood, green looked into surprised topaz. Before either could ask the other any questions, they were attacked. With quick movements and years of fighting, the two demolished the newborns that came in contact with them. When the last newborn was burning into ashes, Harry looked over to the vampire that he had crashed into and snarled.
"Whitlock!" Harry hissed out as he stride up to the vegan vampire. Burying his hands into the vampire's shirt, Harry pulled the other closer to his face. "Whitlock." Harry snapped as he tried to gain his emotions back before the empathy vampire could feel them.
"Harry." Jasper whispered as he tried to look anywhere except for the vampire before him. Their eyes locked and before either could understand anything, a smack sounded in the thin air. Every head snapped towards them. A redden handprint was forming on the vegan's face.
"Do you know what I've been through since you've been gone!" Harry asked, yelled out as he rounded another punch to the vegan's chest. Each punch less powerful from the last one. Harry's eyes teared up, but the tears wouldn't fall. He felt Jasper round his arms around him. The hug was light.
"Do you?" Harry asked softly as he felt the fight leave him. Jasper only held him without speaking, knowing that Harry would explain. Harry let his arms drop to his side and take a step away from the vegan vampire. The clear green eyes stared into the golden topaz, they soften.
"Vald found his maker." Harry explained as he turned to look away from Jasper. Jasper looked confused for a moment before the wording jumped out to him. Jasper dropped his gaze to the ground as he felt the sadness match what Harry was feeling.
"I'm sorry." Jasper whispered as he felt his family start to surround them. He looked up to stare at them before he was once again looking into large, jewel colored eyes that fitted the child.
"I know." Harry stated before he looked at the family before he was dropping his gaze to Jasper once again. "I'll take my leave." Harry said softly before he bowed like his mother once taught him long ago. Jasper followed with one of his own bows before he watched the young looking vampire take off. He turned to face his family. He has some explaining to do.

Months Later- Italy
Harry kept his gaze to the stone ground as he slowly walked around the new area. His gaze lifted to stare up into the clear, silvery moon that hung midway in the sky. The stars twinkled, showing off their brightness. Harry smiled as he thought how Vald was one of those stars now before his smile dropped once again.
Harry stopped when he felt a pair of eyes watching him from above. The sudden need to look behind him was so strong that with out a thought, Harry was already turning to face the watcher. He found no one watching, but the eyes never left his body.
He felt disgusted under the gaze. He felt like the gazer was undressing him with their eyes. He growled low as he slipped into the shadows. He threw himself into the shadows with his illusion dropping so that he could hide better. He heard the footsteps before he saw the person stopping in front of him. The redden orbs that peered into the shadows held his own jewel colored orbs.
He felt his breath catch itself in his throat as he looked the watcher over. Long raven locks fell over shoulders smoothly, that reminded him of his old professor when he was alive. Pale, olive skin stood with a brightness that only the moon's rays could give it. A long black cloak covered those large, broad like shoulders while a red scarf wrapped around his neck and was tucked inside the cloak.
Harry waited for the stranger to leave, but as seconds were passing he noticed how the stranger haven't looked away from him. Harry slowly and softly moved towards a different corner to only freeze as those eyes followed his movement.
"How?" Harry whispered softly.
"Easy." The stranger answered before Harry. Harry's eyes widen as he took a step closer to the stranger. He raised a brow as he pulled his guard up. Vald had once told him that the Volturi roam these areas and that he had to be careful. They would kill him before he could stop them, due to being a child. Harry didn't understand. Why would they want to kill a child? Yes, he was prone to have tantrums but he wasn't destructive in anyway.
"How come you can follow my movements?" Harry asked as he stood with his face hidden in the shadows, but his small body could been seen in the moonlight. The stranger looked down at him without answering. "Are you going to answer or stare at me?"
"Your scent is different. It is appealing." The taller vampire stated as he lifted his gaze to stare into those strange colored eyes as the younger vampire applied his illusion upon his own body.
"Appealing?" Harry asked himself as he tried to walk pass the stranger. He didn't get one step before he was pinned to the wall and stared down at. Harry growled at the threat the other was proposing.
"Where do you think you are going?"
"I don't have to answer to you." Harry growled out as he snapped at the stranger's hand that was gripping him. The stranger only held tighter and grew closer to Harry's face. Harry hissed and snarled as he tried to struggle out of the grip. It wasn't working.
"Aro." The stranger stated which froze the younger vampire in his movements.
"What?" Harry asked.
"My name and now yours." Aro stated as he let his grip loosen as Harry blinked. Harry was taken back. What the hell was going on? Harry thought as he spoke: "Harry."
"Will you like to come live with me?"
"Why?"
"I could use your gift." Aro answered simply. Harry snarled as he slipped from the large body before turning on his heels to look at Aro one last time and with a smirk, he bowed.
"Only if you can catch me yourself, Aro." Harry stated before he disappeared into the night. Aro chuckled as he tilted his head to the side.
"Interesting. Truly are, young Harry." Aro mumbled as he started to walk. The scent of the boy upon his mind as he tracked down the smaller vampire.
