A/N: Hey guys, here is the second chapter of this story and I would like to thank those who have favourite and follow it. Reviews are always welcome but try to make them in a professional manner and not too critical as I'm only fifteen and that this is my first story. I will really appreciate it if you can help me improve by giving me any advice, and I will happily take it to heart. Any way on with the show (or story)! :)
The snake slithered over Dudley and made its way towards Harry. He himself was in the middle of an emotional battle inside his head. He was ecstatic that he just done magic but was worried about the consequences of using it on Dudley. His aunt and uncle will be having seizures when they found out that their sweet Diddykins was hurt by none other than him. He would have to run away the first opportunity he had or risk continuing to live with the Dursley's and hope they will go easy on him.
Who was he kidding, this was the Dursleys he was talking about. Of course, they weren't going to go easy on him, they probably were going to beat him to the inch of his life at the worst or starve him at the best.
Aunt Petunia's scream brought Harry back to earth by the pitched of it, he wouldn't be surprised if there were more broken glass that went flying.
"DUDDIKINS!" His aunt yelled running over to check Dudley with his uncle Vernon in tow.
"BOY WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO OUR DUDLEY!?" uncle Vernon boomed whilst spitting on his nephew. His face was the shade of purple and a vein in his head looked like it was about to burst. Harry thanked the whoever was watching that they were in a public area, otherwise he was certainly going to get the beating of his life. "You wait 'til we got home you FREAK, you're going to wish you were never born!
With that, his uncle turned back towards his son to see if he was okay. The reptile keeper looked like he wondering what happened to the glass and the amount of paper work he had to fill.
"Thank you"
Harry turned around to see the snake right close and personal with him. But Harry wasn't frightened in fact, he felt an odd calm around his body. "Don't mention it um..."
"You may call me Apophis" Apophis said.
"Wait, like the Egyptian god of chaos?"
"A sharp mind! Yes, precisely like the Egyptian god you spoke of. Very good, this will make teaching you easier than I thought."
Harry looked around suddenly remembering that where they were has been gathering a lot of attention due to a fat lump of a kid bleeding to quite severely. Harry wondered how they still haven't spotted the snake next to him.
"You need to hide! They're going to see you and get you back in there as quickly as they can." Harry tried to find a way to hide a six-foot-long snake but found it an almost impossible task as there was nothing to hide it in.
"I have a plan, but I need you to accept it as it will affect you for the rest of your life." Apophis said.
"I accept, I just want to see you safe." Harry said, forgetting about the fact that Apophis said that it will affect him later on.
"Very well." Almost instantaneously, Harry could feel almost the same odd sensation inside him except this time, it was not wild and raging, no, this time it was calming and instead of shooting out, it was more reaching out. It reached out to Apophis slowly but deliberately. Harry could faintly see a distortion in the air between him and the snake and could just make out a faint tit of green.
Suddenly he could feel Apophis, he can actually sense that he was only two years old and that he was still growing in size and power. He could feel Apophis's emotions, especially his confidence like it was a part of his own.
"What did you do?" Harry asked.
"I bonded with you, I became your familiar."
"My familiar?"
"Yes. From now on we will forever be connected by magic and we will be equals. You are now my equal and I am yours. I will now lay down my life for you like I know you will for me. You can sense my emotions and I will be able to sense yours and if ever we are separated, we will be able to find each other."
"I will be honoured to be bonded with you," Harry said sincerely. "But how will this hide you?" still wondering about his plan.
"Like this." Smirked Apophis. In a flash, Apophis suddenly disappeared from in front of him and before Harry could comprehend what happened, he felt an intense heat on his left shoulder. It felt like something was burning onto his skin and he immediately pulled his sleeve back to reveal a tattoo of Apophis on his skin.
"Bloody hell, that hurt!"
'Oh, get over it.' A voice said in his head.
'Apophis?' Harry thought.
'The one and only.'
The paramedics chose that moment to turn up and from then on everything became a blur to Harry for a whole five hours.
A/N: Sorry for another short one but i promise it will get longer. I'm also wondering if you guys want to have Molly, Ronald and Ginny part of Dumbledore's schemes. Anyway tell me your ideas! Until next week then :)
