Everyone looked at the scene in shock. This weird looking, shirtless, masked man was claiming Lily Potter to be his mother, who he believed to be dead? The other newcomers looked in shock for another reason. Krieg never talked about his past. Ever. Yet here he was, looking at this red haired woman, and while speaking in a very normal if angry voice, claiming that the woman in front of him is his deceased mother.

But Dumbledore looked in shock because he had no idea what to think. Seven years ago, he received an alert that Harry Potter had disappeared from Privet Drive. Though it was very unfortunate that the Potters were there when he received the alert, he was happy that the boy was dead and gone. It left him free to focus on Rose. But when he went to confirm the death of Harry, the Dursleys could not provide the location of his body.

Then it REALLY hit him: they never had a body. The Dursleys either assumed he was dead or simply lied. He had to do damage control, and fast! So he spoke up with "Harry? My boy, is it really you?"

The man looked back towards Dumbledore. "My name is Krieg, and if you call me your boy again, then I'll pull your lungs out through your chest." With that the man turned back to stare at Lily.

Lily decided to speak up. "My name is Lily Potter nee Evans. I once had two children, but one of them died at the hands of my horrid cousin Petunia. Please let me prove to you that I am your mother."

Krieg continues to look at her and soon says "I never take off my mask. Not even for sleep or to shower. What color is my eye under my eyepatch?"

"Green. A green just like mine."

A long silence follows as Krieg's exposed brown eye seems to gaze into her soul. At the end of the silence, Krieg walks up slowly to embrace his mother. He gives her a gentle hug, one that she returns with equal softness. "Hi mom." he says.

Another silence followed until Salvador decided to speak up. "Uh, I'm gonna need some help understanding what's going on here."

Dumbledore decides to seize the opportunity and says "We can discuss this in the meeting room. Although I will have to ask that the rest of you wait out here until we are done."

Krieg isn't having that though. "They come with me."

"I'm so sorry, but they cannot-"

Krieg interrupts glaring down at Dumbledore "They come. With me."

Dumbledore decides to not push such a strong man's buttons and motions for the group to enter the meeting room.


They all enter to find three other people within. A stunningly beautiful young woman, a bulky young man who looked like he was allergic to smiling, and an average looking teenager. The three looked at the Vault Hunters along with Tiny Tina, Lily Potter the muggle studies teacher, and Albus Dumbledore the most powerful wizard in modern history.

The explanation of the current situation came from Dumbledore. "The Goblet of Fire provided a fourth name of Harry Potter. Then these people were sent flying out of the fire of the Goblet. Though I think we would all like to know where you all come from."

Krieg then proceeded to explain to all of those assembled in the room about Pandora, the Vaults, and Vault Hunters. "We come from a planet called Pandora. I'll just be blunt: it's a hellhole. There are no laws, violent fauna, and three people dying is considered a good day. We happen to be Vault Hunters. Basically, a Vault is usually a place that contains a monster, almost always capable of causing mass destruction. But Vaults can also contain massive amounts of valuable resources, mainly Eridium. Vault Hunters seek out Vaults to claim the riches inside. I'm Krieg, and that's Axton, Maya, Salvador, Zero, Gaige, and Tiny Tina. All of us, excluding Tina, are very capable Vault Hunters."

The bulky young man scoffs. "Another planet? You expect us to believe that?"

Gaige just steps forward and summons Deathtrap in front of the young man. "Yeah, actually. We kinda do." Then Deathtrap disappears.

The magicals in the room look at the Vault Hunters in shock. This girl not only possessed a metal arm, but she also used it to casually summon a monster made of metal!

Dumbledore gets out of his shock first and introduces the three as Viktor Krum, Fleur Delacour, and Cedric Diggory. Cedric then asks "So one of you is Harry Potter? Who?"

Krieg steps forward.

"Oh please. You believe to be the lost Potter child?" Fleur asks.

"I'm Krieg the Psycho. I don't get that title by caring about whether or not you believe me. I got that title from being a raving madman who hurts people for attempting to so much as touch his sandwich."

Fleur then decided to back away.

But Krieg wasn't done. "And if you ever try to play on my emotions again, I'll… I'll… I'LL SLICE OPEN YOUR EYELIDS SO YOU CAN WATCH THE END, HAHAHAHAHA!!!"

The magicals found themselves in shock once more at this likely psychotic declaration. They watched in morbid curiosity as Krieg then rolled his neck and was suddenly calm and relaxed again.

"Sorry. I have a case of Pandoran Psychosis and Dissociative Identity Disorder." He said in explanation.

Lily looked at the Pandorans. "You all seem rather unsurprised."

"He always talks like that. Krieg's dominant side is the crazy one. If anything, we're surprised that he was able to stay sane for as long as he has." Maya explained.

"Actually, me and the other guy made a sort of agreement. Both of us realize that we should talk more here, so as long as we're here, I'll handle the talking, while he handles the fighting. Though when we get back home, it'll be back to business as usual." Krieg explained.

Dumbledore needed time to think on this. "Well, this has been a long night, perhaps we should pick this up again in the morning. Mrs. Potter will show you to the guest quarters so that you may rest. Though I would like to speak to you all tomorrow morning so that I may address the students at breakfast."

Krieg decided to make something clear to Dumbledore though. "Just make sure to tell them everything and to not bother us unless necessary. We don't hurt kids, but we might attack on reflex."

"Very well then, Mrs. Potter, will you please escort our guests?"

"Of course. Please follow me."

And so they did. As the Pandorans walked towards their quarters, they began to notice the paintings moving, absolutely confirming that they were now in a world of magic.

Lily wanted to talk to her son. "Har- Krieg, I-I just want you to know that we thought you died when our house was attacked. Please I swear, we had no idea where you went, or why. I'm so sorry."

"I know. And I forgive you."

Lily couldn't believe it. "You-you do?"

"Yes, and if you really want to make it up to me, let me get to know you, Dad, and Rose."

Lily suddenly realized that they made it to the guest rooms. She then gave Krieg a basic map of Hogwarts. "A woman named Minerva McGonagall will be here in the morning to bring you to the great hall."

"Thanks." Krieg said.

With that, the Pandorans entered through the door and Lily left for her own quarters to floo call James.


Inside the room, Krieg looked at the rest of his friends and said "So I guess you all probably have some questions."

Axton was the first to reply. "Uh, yeah dude! Seriously, you can do magic?!"

"Yeah. I mean, how else could I breathe fireballs that track people? Or make people explode in fire, shock, acid, slag, or regular explosions?"

They all thought about that and figured he had a point. But Tina was next. "Krieg, how do you do magic?"

"Apparently, I pull magical energy from a magical core. Like a battery."

"Like a siren?" Maya asks.

"Yes and no. I do pull energy from my core to make things happen, but it can be a wide range of things."

Gaige decides to ask the big question. "So you could do magic all this time and you either hid it or didn't use it?"

"Magic has brought me nothing but trouble when I was a kid."

Zero asks "What kind of trouble?"

Krieg just falls silent for a few moments before saying "Look, it's late and we have a lot of things to do tomorrow. Let's try to get some sleep." And with that, Krieg found a bed and laid down on it, not looking at anyone.

"Yeah… let's get some rest." Axton declared with everyone following Krieg's lead.


The next morning, everyone woke up to a knock at the door. Gaige went to get the door while everyone else got out of bed. She opened the door asking "Yeah?" with the Greed in hand, being held almost lazily.

"Hello, I am Professor Minerva McGonagall. I was sent to retrieve you for breakfast." the newcomer said.

"Cool." was Gaige's reply.

But from behind her, Tina nearly shouted "Ah! The witch has arrived! Quick, produce magic! Please!"

McGonagall looked stern as ever, and yet somehow, quite amused. She proceeded to pull out her wand and conjured a small rabbit on the floor behind Tina.

Tina gasped loudly and declared "Can we keep her?!"

The professor stated "Actually, the bunny will disappear within a few hours."

"Actually, I think Tina was asking if we could keep you." It seemed that Krieg was awake.

"Yes! Please, I'll make sure that she's fed and watered!" Tina said, confirming Krieg's guess.

"We're getting distracted. Let's get some breakfast." Maya stated.

With that, the Pandorans followed Professor McGonagall to the Great Hall in silence.


When they arrived, everyone turned to look at the group. The group walked up to the center of the room, where Lily, a man, and a teenage girl were waiting. The man had very messy black hair, brown eyes, and round glasses. The girl had red hair just like Lily and brown eyes like the man, who was likely her father.

Krieg walked up to them and looked at them, and proceeded to embrace the man in a hug saying "Hi dad." Krieg then let go and hugged the girl saying "Hi Rose."

At that moment, a family finally felt complete.
