Last Time: The snake said "That's fine young ling. Will you….

"That's fine young ling. Will you…., Will you take care of my son? We are the rarest breed of snakes, the last of great NAGA. Only few of us remain and without bonding to a wizard we slowly loose our magic like me and my mate. Please take care of my son."

Harry replied "I shall take care of your son." Saying so he pointed his wand at his crest and said "I, Harry James Potter, Ruler of Ancients swear on my magic and life that as long as I live no harm shall befall the snake ling being presented to me. So mote it be."

As he completed the oath a binding magical light surrounded him and faded. He then turned to the snake and asked "Where is your son. What is his name?"

The snake spit out a small snake only the size of palm of Harry and said "Here youngling. His is named after our ancestor as ASTIKA. I am Asti and his father is Kaliya." She then turned to her son and said "Son, It is unfortunate that we have to separate this fast. But this Human is not like others and will care for you. He understands our noble tongue. Bond with him and be happy. Remember we always love you." Saying that she took her last breath and her body became stiff. Harry saw to his amazement that it broke into tiny corpuscles and settled on the young snake.

Harry picked up the young snake which bit his finger. Harry felt a sudden rush of memories of pushing through the egg, crawling with two bigger snakes and many more and then he saw humans running and hitting with stones, another larger snake staying back to give him and his mother a chance to escape. He felt sad. The snake too saw Harry's childhood and memories. It said "Master if speaking our tongue is considered evil how will you keep me?"

Harry replied "We will think of something. For now, stay hidden under my sleeves."

Harry went to Potter library and searched for books on Naga's but he didn't find any. So after few hours he had lunch and told everyone that he is going into forest and as soon as he was out of sight he flamed to Flamel's and showed his parents his new familiar. Emma came into her Phoenix form and greeted the young snake. Harry asked his father if they had any books on Naga.

But before Nick could reply Salazar spoke from his portrait "Why don't to go to Slytherin castle. It has all the information required on your new familiar. You can travel there by floo. You need to say "Serpentus snore".

Harry smiled and said "so that's why no one was able to discover it all these years?"

Salazar smiled and said "It's for you, your friends and for your descendants."

Harry felt elated and called Patil's to come to Flamel's residence immediately. After they came and pleasantries were exchanged Harry gave them the news and Padma shrieked. Her fear of snakes made her read on most of snakes and she read a little about NAGA'S. She knew their venom was more toxic than basilisks and they had huge powers. When she told everyone what she knew they decided they need to find out everything soon.

Harry and others quickly departed to Slytherin Castle to find out more.

After few hours of reading Parvati came across the book they wanted. She called everyone and started reading out loud.

"Of Serpents ancient and great NAGA'S are considered the greatest. Their powers so immense, they are considered god of serpents. Human's worshiping NAGA'S is also common in eastern countries. On reaching maturity after few months from their birth Naga's can morph to a size as large as hundred feet. Their powers are considered to be great as they can morph into human form after certain age. They have four eyelids covering their eyes apart from external lid's unlike other serpents. Opening of all the four lids and gazing into targets eye will turn them to ashes' immediately. Three lids open and the gaze can kill and two lids will petrify. If one lid is open the person is stunned and if all the lids are closed they show no effect. Their venom is considered to be most toxic and is known to have no antidote except a combination of itself with tears of Royal Phoenix and freely given blood of Unicorn. However NAGA'S are considered peaceful and only attack if threatened. But unlike other magical beings Naga's loose their power's if not in a clan or if not bonded to a magical wizard or other sentient magical being. NAGA'S presence in vicinity is known immediately as people will feel a pull towards them unless they loose their magic. NAGA'S from birth have power to become one with bonder."

As Parvati finished reading everyone looked towards Harry. Harry smiled and said "Don't worry. I don't wish to keep it a secret and risk being caught. I have an idea."

After that everyone left and Harry went back to Potter Manor.

As days passed Astika grew as close as Emma to Harry. He fed him in his room and took care. Astika promised not to harm anyone unless his life was threatened. Days passed and Harry was noticing the change in Lilly's behavior and laughed internally. If Dumbledore is thinking he will fall for it then he dint know who the bigger fool was?

After few days Harry was sitting in his room reading a book on soul magic disguised as 'simple hexes and uses'. Lilly Potter came into his room and said "Harry, come down. We need to discuss something. Dumbledore will be here in few minutes. Harry nodded and said "I will be down in a minute"

As Harry went down he saw that Longbottom's and Sirius Black were present too. He understood it was about disowning him and smirked internally. As Harry sat down six owls flew down and dropped the letters. Two were for Harry and remaining were for others. Harry saw one had school crest on it. He knew it was their results. The second one was from Professor McGonagall. Harry didn't know why McGonagall has written to him but thought he better read it alone and skipped it into his pocket. As he was about to open his results he herd everyone gasp and Rose shouting "NO. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE."

Harry opened the result and found that he has scored perfect marks in every subject. Then he opened the rank list and understood the reason for their gasps and Rose's outburst. It said

1st – Harry Potter*

Padma Patil*

Parvati Patil*

Praveen Patil*

2nd – Susan Bones

3rd – Draco Malfoy

Harry saw that the chosen ones were standing after their study group and they were complaining that they have copied. Harry laughed at their idiocy and said in a sweet voice filled with venom and as cold as ice "Oh, all the training did no good did it?"

James Potter was about to scold him but stopped and sat down. Everyone was lost in their own thoughts.

Glory Longbottom:

Glory remembered how her life has been since she could remember. She was dotted over and got what ever she wanted. Her brother and her friends loved her. She never picked on that brat but gave others ideas and watched the fun. Oh how she loved to see him punished. She loved to see Uncle James beat him. She still remembered their second birthday. She saw that squib come through fire and pulled her uncles sleeve.

"What happened dear?" James asked in a sweet voice.

"Uncle isn't that squib not to come home till all the guests left? He will ruin our name." She said in a complaining voice.

The effect was immediate. James pulled him away and bet him and locked him in the room. She pushed her brother and friends to pick on him at every opportunity. Oh, she just suggested. The rest just followed. But he stopped reacting and crying. He stopped complaining to aunt Lilly. Even when he complained they rarely got scolding. She grew restless as he grew strong. So she did the only thing she could think of. She pushed him of the stairs. She thought his neck would break and die. But that brat some how managed to land on his hands and got them injured. No one cared though. She didn't know how they got fixed by next day. She thought aunt Lilly must have done that.

Then after they turned four they went to Hogwarts to train. They left that squib and she was very happy. Dumbledore and other teachers were teaching them but it was mostly Dumbledore and their parents. They said they were going strong. Every year they would go back and she and her friends would pick on him.

When he didn't react to their teasing she proposed that they show what they could do with their magic. It didn't work and she got scared that she lost her magic. But then it worked and he got heck of a hex. Their parents came but a cooked up story got them out of trouble. Then she didn't know who did it but the birthday cake blasted.

That year Dumbledore told it was wrong to pick on those weaker than us. So they decided they would taunt him but won't curse him that badly. Then there was that blasted Dueling circuit and that son of a bitch Alex Rawthorn. She thought she would beat him to pulp but then she didn't even have time to react when he started attacking. She felt so much pain that she wanted to pass out badly and thought Rose and Dan will avenge her. After a week when she woke up and learnt what happened to her friends and Uncle James she was scared.

If a boy of her age could do this then what about Voldemort? Her hairs got stiff in fear until grandpa Albus told her that that competition was rigged and next year he will make sure they enter as a team to win. Though she doubted if it was rigged she felt there was no way she and her friends could be defeated. It took nearly three months for them to be back on feet and couldn't even celebrate their birthday.

Then next year they participated as a team and she got beaten by that Janis. Huh, that was painful but then they were banned. She was happy at least that she won't be embarrassed any further.

Then they started Hogwarts officially and that brat joined them again. Not only that he out did all of them and even got medals. If it wasn't for Dumbledore they would have lost the house cup. And now the results….NO. She will show him what she is. This year won't be fun for him like last one.

Little did Glory know that her friends were having same thoughts in their minds. But something else was running in minds of adults in the room.

Lilly Potter:

As Lilly thought back all the years she felt a pang of guilt come over her. She knew she loved her eldest son, may be a little less than her younger children but she loved him none the less. But over the years she left him for his own. Ignored him. Even punished him for no visible reason. It all started when they were told he was a squib. When they were told he couldn't perform magic. She remembered the conversation she had with Dumbledore after a few weeks of giving birth to her children.

"Ah what brings you here Lilly?" Dumbledore asked with a smile.

"Albus, you know that Harry is Heir to Potter family right?" She asked pleadingly.

"Yes, but it will need to be passed to Dan when time comes. There is nothing we can do about it."

"Cant we transfer a little amount of magic from Dan to him. You said Dan is very powerful. Then may be he wont be a squib." She asked pleading to make him say yes.

"NO. That can't be done Lilly. I am absolutely sure the four children are chosen ones. It will only cause problems when Voldemort returns. Forget it Lilly. Love your younger children. Forget about Harry."

She didn't know what came over her but she nodded. Then on the night of their first birthday she was telling how happy she was for her kids and saw shadow a shadow. She knew it was Harry as only he was able to properly walk and quickly changed by saying how angry she was with Dumbledore. For some reason she didn't want Harry to hate her. She explained later to James who just smiled at the brightest witch of their age.

Then there was the incident with the cookies. She was watching him reach the cookies and was about to help him but then Rose came and dropped the Jar. She went in immediately and asked Rose what happened and listened to her cooked up story. She could see disbelieving looks on Harry's face but asked Rose how she reached the jar. When she replied "Magic" she couldn't say that her daughter was lying. As much as she wanted to scold her for lying she couldn't scold her and make her loose self confidence and loose her trust. So she smiled at her and sent her away and sent Harry to his room a little sternly as he was about to protest.

Then she saw James dragging him to his room on their second birthday and went next day to his room to find him crumpled on ground and beaten. She brought herself a few tears lest he should notice. She knew it was James but asked Harry to find out if he complained. When he didn't she felt relaxed as the kid wont tell about abuse to any one. She treated his wounds which were visible to public and left and sent food with house elf as she was busy with her children.

Yes she no longer cared for him. Then she started teaching the kids basic muggle subjects and Harry surpassed her babies. She couldn't allow it. So she was talking to James about keeping him away when the kid again entered and she saw him from the corner of the eye. She quickly started complaining and as James understood what was happening he dropped the topic. Then she waited for few days and told the kid he couldn't study with her babies. When the kid told her he won't perform up to his potential she was angered beyond belief. How can he, a squib be better than her kids? She lashed him and sent him away to his room and ordered the house elves to starve him. Then they left him and went to Hogwarts and she was more than happy. They saw him for a few days once a year and it was ok with her.

Then her kids used magic on him and she was delighted but concealed it behind mask of horror and sadness. She picked up the disgusting boy and put him to bed. She didn't even check on him. Years rolled and then there was that blasted tournament and her kids got injured by that stupid son of a whore Alexander Rawthorn.

She asked him to find out why he hurt them so bad because she feared he might know about the injustice they did to their eldest son and was some hand of justice. She knew what she was doing was wrong but it was required. The children must be united and for that if they needed to pick on some one she was ready to sacrifice her eldest son who was a squib or she believed him to be.

She asked, in fact shouted at Dumbledore when her children were so hurt. The old man said it was required and will make them stronger. He said that the kids were vulnerable alone and they need to be trained.

Then he pushed them as a team next year and even then they lost to the same kid and his team. If her children wouldn't have been banned she would have not allowed them to compete again till they were older. Of course this didn't stop her from lashing Dumbledore.

Then there were letters and that squib son of hers was selected to go to Hogwarts. She put up a sad facade but was more than happy that her children will have more magic and will grow stronger. When that brat willingly agreed to give his magic she was more than delighted. He was useful for something after all. Then there were his deduction skills. She was appalled but thought they can force him to teach their kids those. Where he learnt them from was beyond her. She searched every section in potter manor and Black manor but got nothing. So now she started her little act to get on his good side to back stab him when he least expected. But she was angry that he did better than everyone and even got medal for services. It must belong to her children. But no, at least they won the house cup. Thanks to Dumbledore. Little did she know that is soon bound to change.

The remaining adults were having similar thoughts but none were thinking what they did in case of elder son of Potter's was wrong. Little did they know they made a monster with a master mind who was seeking revenge and was waiting for most opportunistic moment to strike like a Cobra waiting to inject its fangs at least suspecting time.

Harry Potter:

As Harry went through his life he felt disgust and hatred at Potter's. He thought Lilly really loved him. But once he mastered legilemency he saw her memories and that night he shifted to Flamel's manor and found solace in comforting hands of his mother, Perene. He saw how she acted and knew why she was considered the smartest witch. If he had doubts previously he had none now. Only if she was a better occlumens Harry would have suspected a compulsion charm by Dumbledore on her. But now he knew. Though initially it pained him he came to terms with it.

Now he had no regrets on what he did and what he was about to do. Through the years he improved, became the most powerful wizard. Even Dumbledore can't hold him for more than few minutes. He could crush the old fool. And he would do it. And he would make everyone watch. Then at the brink of his defeat he would reveal all about his achievements to world and turn him to his cause. He would change the wizarding world. He would re distribute power among people. No more aristocracy.

And he worked hard for it. He designed what people knew as magic vision, wizard version of television. He started his own channels with the amount he acquired through previous investments and selling his product of magical visions also now known as M.V. His channels took news directly to viewers and also telecasted duel's happening throughout the world. He also made sure to got rights to telecast muggle channels and now his wealth was so huge that he could buy one-tenth of muggle Brittan. He also started hotels and Pubs and casinos in various parts of world under name of Rawthorn. They were maintained by elves and goblins and were finalized by Nick. When he set foot on Hogwarts the first thing he took notice was discrimination. He saw how Argus Flitch, a squib was treated and befriended him. He told him how he was mistreated from childhood and Flitch felt bad for the kid. Soon they became good friends and he didn't give up the friendship even when other kids and his siblings taunted him about befriending a squib. He has created his allies and spies. His followers and his intelligence helped him along with his power and events. Now they were about to tell him they will disown him and take him back under adoption once disowning magic settles. He had a proposition which he knew Dumbledore can never reject. He smiled to himself. The results were as expected. Game starts now Dumbledore. Game starts now.

Albus Dumbledore:

Albus Dumb-old-dork was pacing in his office. The results were what he expected. He knew the elder potter would do this. But now he was regretting what he did all those years ago. He should have looked more closely at the elder potter kid. But no harm is done. He has made sure that Gryffindor won the house cup and got away with the favoritism. No one can challenge Headmaster once points or punishments are issued or so he thought. So he didnt mind to look at what his deputy and the charms professor were doing behind his back. In a year his magic would be transferred and then he would compel the kid to share his knowledge before the kid died. Ha no one, no one can outsmart him. He was DUMBLEDORE the GREAT, BEACON OF LIGHT.

He came out of his musings and flooed to Potter manor.

The roaring of flames brought everyone out from their musings. Dumbledore strode to the living room and greeted everyone. He turned to Harry and said "Harry, my boy, how you have been. I hope results have arrived. Congratulations on making first place. Now we have a important matter to discuss. Harry you know …."

Harry looked coldly at the old man in front of him and not listening to his rambling said "They want to disown me."

Everyone looked shocked and James said "We will take you back once disownment magic settles."

Harry replied "Be that as it may the disownment won't be properly complete without my proper consent and I have a condition."

Dumbledore looked perplexed and said "what is it Harry?"

"I would need you to swear on your magic that …."
