Don't Own Potter or Gargoyles they belong to JKR and Disney

Gargoyles: Harry becomes ward of Xanatos the clan is Scottish so when HP and Alexander need to go to magic school they go with them to protect them. Lily could have been the product of another of Oberon's wife's relationships she has a number of physical similarities to Fox that would make both Alexander and Harry ¼ Faye would explain why he survived You-Know-Who.


Xanatos looked down at the boy before him hardly believing what he was being told by the King and Queen of the faye. "What makes you think that we can deal with the training of another of your grandchildren?" He questioned Oberon in annoyance.

"Because he is the child of your wife's half sister." The faye told the man arrogantly. "Surely family means something to you?" The tall figure questioned him. "Besides if you do not take the child in then I may have to reconsider my choice in allowing Alexander being brought up here instead of Avalon."

Xanatos scowled at Oberon deciding now was not the time to remind the faye king how he had managed to hold the stuck up lord off. He didn't mention that he had since then upgraded the security systems since then. He was also upset because he really didn't like to be forced into doing something yet Oberon was doing just that. "Fine we'll take the kid. I presume that Puck will be training him in his abilities as well?"

"Of course what do you take me for?"

"An overbearing, manipulative, controlling, grandfather that's used to getting his own way no matter what." Xanatos bluntly responded to the king.

"Among other things." Oberon said with annoyance at the young human that liked to delude himself into thinking that they were equal.


"You are not thinking of letting the boys go alone are you?" Goliath questioned the millionaire. "They should be sent with clan protection."

"I am well aware of how to take care of the boys Goliath." Xanatos snapped at the giant figure. "However, this mystical training is an entirely different style that which Owen is teaching them, it could have its uses. Besides there is a man there by the name of Albus Dumbledore who has already gone through the trouble of setting the stage for us. It would simply be rude not to at least see just what it is that he has planned before we decide whether or not we want to play his game. Besides you know me, I've always been a sucker when it came to the chance to cross mental blades with masters and this man is truly a master he has nearly an entire civilization bowing down to nearly his most basic desires. The chance to cross blades with such a master is one that I can hardly wait on."

Goliath sighed as he listened to the dark haired man. Xanatos had changed much from the monster that he once was but there were parts of him that were still untamable. The man's need for challenges to fight just happened to be one of those tendencies that he still had. "Be wary Xanatos for magic users, the usual rules rarely work. Trickery is their way my friend and they have made it their life blood."

"Don't worry so much Goliath if I can manage to deal with Oberon then I think I can deal with a bunch of wand wavers that are trying to show off." Xanatos assured the Gargoyle.

"Fine," Goliath growled, "as their guardian you have the right to do this. However, as the protector of the castle and the family I insist that they have some gargoyle protection with them when they go."

"I wouldn't have it any other way Goliath. How will you choose who goes and stays though? Your place is here in New York, not England or wherever this school is."

"I have studied the way your own security units protect in other cities and countries." The Gargoyle admitted to the human. "I believe that the best way would be to have a rotation of guards for every of these semesters that they are there. It will allow for those in need of leadership experience to gain while also protecting the family."

"And where will you get the gargoyles to protect them?"

"You forget Xanatos, that our clan is the largest and that we have many allies. Perhaps the Samurai Gargoyles would like to trade out some time, and there are those on Avalon that I believe that I can convince particularly if it is for the protection of the boys."

"Yes, Oberon is a bit obsessive when it comes to their protection." The billionaire agreed with his companion.

"Exactly, and the chance to have a new castle in which we could protect would be something that we could all appreciate."

"Good, I think you, Hudson, Bronx, and Angela to join us when we meet the wizards about their school." Xanatos said.

"Why them?"

Fox laughed at this. "Because of all of you. you're the meanest looking and Angela has her mother's red eyes which are a lot scarier than your own white and yellow, Hudson has that scar and sword of his and Bronx makes the meanest looking attack dog ever."

Goliath nodded in understanding. "I see, then you do not wish for us to remain hidden from them then?"

Xanatos let out a loud laugh at this. "No offense Goliath, but none of you can actually hide very well for the long term."

"In this we can agree." The Gargoyle nodded. "However we are still good enough to have remained hidden from the world even with you trying to let the world find us."

"Touché, Goliath that is true." The man said with a grin. "It's a good thing that your team made a lot of friends early on."

"Very well, perhaps I shall try and convince Stone Cold and his mate to rejoin us here so that the others can help the boys as well."

"Sounds like a plan, and while you're talking to the various Gargoyles and their clans I'll contact McDuff and Arthur and see if I can't get them to tell me anything about wizards that they know."

"Yes that is good, you might also plan for them to begin training the boys in medieval combat this summer instead of next. If they are going into a world like I believe then they shall need all of the help that they can get." Fox told her husband.

"A very good point my dear, I'll have Owen add it into their schedule they need to be prepared for anything that they come against."


Hagrid and McGonagall looked around the room full of adults that said they were Harry's guardians. There was Mr. Xanatos a man dressed in a business suit with long dark hair and an athletic build with eyes that shone with a deadly intelligence. On one side was a man with white hair and beard dressed in dark clothes and a trench coat. The man simply answered to the name McDuff. Off to the other side was a man with brown hair and a trench coat that looked much like the Pendragon statues that were around Hogwarts. He had called himself Arthur of all things. Off to the side was a dark skinned woman in jeans and a red jacket that held herself in a self assured manner that let people know not to mess with her. The woman merely introduced herself as a Detective and close family friend that already knew about magic. "Now then, why are you so interested in my nephew coming to your school?" Xanatos questioned the pair.

"Your nephew?" McGonagall questioned while raising a stern eyebrow at the man that reminded her of a dark haired version of Lucious Malfoy. "I happen to know that you are not related to the Potters despite some of your physical similarities, and Lily only had one sister which is not her." The witch said nodding to the detective.

"Actually, Lily was only the half sister of Petunia." A new voice said as a new figure stepped into the light. McGonagall was speechless and Hagrid let out a gasp and took a hesitant step back as they looked at the figure. It was as if an older version of Lily Evans Potter had just stepped forth. The only thing that they could see that was truly different was the blue tattoo that covered one of the woman's eyes. The eyes were more different though than just the strange mark. Where Lily had gentle and kind eyes this woman had hard and deadly eyes.

While the two were looking the redhead over a new figure stepped inside from the a secret passage. "Tell me witch, what are the protections on your Castle Hogwarts that the boys should leave the safety of Castle Wyvern?" Goliath demanded of the pair.

"A gargoyle!" The witch exclaimed, drawing her wand and pointing it at the creature whom merely growled at her as she held the weapon on her. "You allow dark creatures like this in your home?" The witch asked of the muggles.

"Goliath is many things, but dark is not one of them." Xanatos returned coldly feeling insulted for his friend. "And how can you call a protector evil? According to the stories all magic users are evil as well does that mean we should aim weapons at you as well?" The man mocked the witch as she aimed her wand at a person that was worth fifty others morally at the very least.

"Peace Xanatos," Goliath told the man, "we gain nothing from losing our tempers here this night." The gargoyle snorted at the witch who hesitantly lowered her wand. "The only way that Harry and Alexander are going to your school is if they have Gargoyle protection. Tell this to your headmaster."

"You can't be serious?" The witch asked in disbelief on the demands that they were making upon them.

"He is," Xanatos returned, "I take the security of my family very serious. Don't think I would hesitate to have them taught elsewhere."

"I demand to see Harry to ensure he is safe before I carry any of your messages like a common post owl." McGonagall told the man.

"Very well that can be arranged." Xanatos agreed. "Hudson, Angela, please escort our guests to the gym. I believe that the boys are training Martial Arts with Own down there."

"Aye, that I can do Xanatos." Hudson said as he stomped forward. The two magical world people started as they saw yet more gargoyles enter the room.


Xanatos frowned as he listened to the various reports that the boys were giving them. The entire culture sounded as if it was on the verge of Civil War and was currently going through its own version of the Cold War right now with the way people's opinions were being manipulated. "Alright I don't like this very much so I'm sending you back with steel clan armor if anything happens I want you to both be able to protect yourselves."

"But father, electronics don't work in Hogwarts, the armor can't do anything." Alexander reminded the man.

Xanatos smiled at this smugly with a cocky gleam in his eyes that those who knew the man knew was him revelling in having found a way around the rules once again. "That's where your wrong, son, it just has to be suitably shielded. Lexington and I have come up with a type of iron protection for the armor that allows for the equipment to pass through heavy magic environments without any problems. It will still have to be serviced away from the school, but with the iron it will allow you to operate with only a potential 5 percent loss of power. This gives you plenty of ability. The designs will have iron over the entire body a thin layer of reinforced steel beneath that and then iron wiring coverings. Arthur has also insisted that we add medieval weapons to some of the arsenal besides just lasers."

"Sweet." The boys said as they looked at the armor designs that the man was explaining to them.

"I'm glad you like it I also want you boys to start making contacts in this wizarding world as well. From what I know Hagrid is an excellent source of information at the castle, get on his good side. I also want you to find some good researchers into magic as well in case your Grand Father ever gets it into his head to attack us again I want us to be ready to deal with anything and everything. Who knows you might also find some sort of market that we can exploit as well."

"And what about this Snape person?" Harry asked his uncle. "The man has been targeting me for anything and everything that goes wrong around the castle. Do you want us to do anything about him or wait?"

"Yes, I know about the difficulties he's been giving you. Owen has kept me informed of this. I have lawyers in both the magical and regular world preparing to deal with him. Just last the rest of the school year and then we'll take the guy down a few pegs. He can either deal with us or go to court. Personally I hope that he wants to deal having a Potions Master like that under thumb could prove useful. Besides from what I know of him he is more likely to make a deal than to try and fight us over anything."

"We'll keep track of everything he says and does." The boy's promised the man.

"That's my boys." The man said proudly to the pair.


Harry and Alexander rolled their eyes as they listened to the adults talk about what had happened. The snake had been impressive but had been no match against the Steel Claw iron version with a complete sonar and radar sensor package that they had. Combined with the Xanatos weapons package which included everything from lasers to daggers the snake had easy enough to beat. True they had needed to use a magic sword in the end but it hadn't been nearly the problem that they thought that was that big of a deal. It wasn't like they had been in any real danger anyways they hadn't even had to use any of their faye magic against it.

The two boys had a whispered conversation before they looked at the adults. "So what's the going price for giant snakes that kills you with a look and some of the most potent venom around?" Harry questioned them.

"Yeah, as the people that dealt with it we should be the ones that get the majority of any profits that come from it." Alexander pointed out to the adults.

"You do have a point, however I do believe that Hogwarts has a greater claim then you do though." The Headmaster told them. "The board will most likely point out that as a creature belonging to a founder that the school has a greater claim."

"Not really sir," Alexander told the man, "as a class 8 magical creature the killer is allowed the majority of the profit from the kills. A land owner can only receive a portion of the money if they act as a guide. Then there is the fact that the Hogwarts Charter says that anyone that has to come and deal with a magical creature is allowed all compensation for their duty."

"And since it was Hermione who was the one who managed to find its original trail she would receive part of the tracking reward." Harry pointed out to the wizard who listened in shock. "As the owners of the land you would be able to receive any scraps that we left or didn't feel the need for."

"Surely this must be some sort of mistake, or perhaps you would be willing to discuss a cheap sale price." Dumbledore said hopefully.

"Well, what are you offering headmaster? A return of all tuition money? Perhaps certain private training in less studied areas of magic? We are paying for the extra food for the gargoyles despite the fact that they're cutting back on the need for you to need teachers and prefects to patrol the halls at night. So as a matter of fact you're not exactly well known for appropriate business relationship."

Dumbledore looked uncomfortable at this as he realized that the family really had been most accommodating. Xanatos and Fox laughed as they listened to the boys begin to deal with the headmaster. While the headmaster was a great political man it was obvious he was not as talented in using those same methods in business.


Harry blushed as he looked at his uncle wondering how he was going to convince the man of what he was asking." Um Uncle?"

"Yeah Harry?"

"You remember Hermione right?"

"The magical genius that's your age right?" Xanatos questioned.

"Right, well since she seems to be with us on most of our adventures I was wondering."

"If you could convince me to make her some Steel Clan armor as well?" The man finished for him in amusement as he pressed a button and a set of armor rose from the ground. This armor rather than being based on Goliath was based on Angela giving room for the chest.

"You already built her some?" Harry asked in surprised while his cousin was snickering behind him.

"Yes, I figured it was only a short amount of time before you realized that she needed some form of protection. Particularly after the whole giant snake incident from earlier." Xanatos said. "I also have her parent's permission for her to use it as well. They've wanted her to have more protection since they learned of all of the attacks that the three of you have been going through. The fact that she has been a great resource and help on your adventures means that she's more than worth the investment of the armor as she'll be able to work better with you. She'll be over next week for the final fitting and then you boys can begin training her in the proper use of the armor. Consider it as protecting a future investment."

"Yes sir," the boys said with relieved grins that their friend would now be protected from some of the more basic dangers that their adventures brought along.


Harry Alexander and the Gargoyles grinned as they looked at the Quidditch pitch. This was the first time that there were enough of them to have their own game. With three teens in their Steel Clan armor and enough Gargoyles they now had enough people here to play their own night game. "Alright everyone, take your positions it's time to see just what's so special about this game." Brooklyn told everyone as they tossed the various balls into the air before they all jumped off of the high rings to begin their game. On the ground various other people were gathered around to watch the game between the gargoyles and humans. The various teams watched in disbelief at the swooping maneuvers that the two non human teams were making as they performed tricks that some of the most talented broom flyers were only just able to manage. People cheered as they watched Broadway wave a beaters bat. Brooklyn was possibly the best chaser that any of them had ever seen. Lexington performed as one of the best seekers they had ever seen only a professional had ever been seen to pull as tight of tricks.

Albus frowned as he watched this display of power and friendship that the group had. This was not the life he had planned for the boy. He was supposed to be entrenched in the wizarding world yet the more he watched the boy the less sure he became of him. He performed ancient ritual magic's that even he and Voldemort combined would have trouble doing with a wave of his hand or a thought, he had these protectors that guarded against everything, then there was the muggle equipment that he was always using. How was he supposed to herd the boy into the right direction if he wouldn't listen to him? He had to figure a way to get the point of his importance to the world across to Harry. Perhaps there was a way that he could have the wizarding world show Harry that he was better off in this world than whatever world he was currently playing in. The sooner the boy broke his ties the better off that everyone would be.
