It didn't take long for Malfoy and Harry to find the other children (Harry used that term loosely while regarding himself), though since the party had just started, not everyone was there, at least according to Malfoy.

Malfoy walked in front of Harry and introduced him to others, "My fellow heirs and heiresses, this is Harry Potter, the oldest heir of Fleamont and Euphemia Potter."

A couple of children broke out into whispers, Fleamont and Euphemia Potter were famous for their contribution against Grindelwald, after all.

Malfoy clapped his hands politely and brought the attention back to him. Malfoy then smiled and looked at Harry, he said, "Let me introduce you to others."

Malfoy pointed at a boy that was James' age but sat very properly. This boy had shoulder-length blonde hair and blue eyes. Malfoy told Harry, "This is Benjamin Stebbins."

Stebbins, Harry recognised that that man was a Death Eater, nodded and smiled politely. He said, "Nice to meet you, Potter."

Harry nodded and then Lucius pointed to another boy, this one was Harry's age. The boy had platinum blonde hair, almost white, which was messy and had a charming smile on his face. He had dark brown eyes as well. Lucius introduced him, "This is David Yaxley" and continued with a small smirk, "Be careful with sweets around him, he has a sweet tooth larger than this mansion."

David grinned and said, "What can I say, Malfoy? I like sweets."

Harry's eyes narrowed momentarily, he had never heard of a David Yaxley, maybe he had died before Harry's birth the first time around. Harry nodded in greeting to David, who nodded back amicably.

Lucius moved over to a girl this time, she was really short and had long blonde hair that was styled fashionably. She wore round glasses that covered her pretty blue eyes. Lucius said, "This is Pandora Trelawney."

The name sounded familiar to Harry but he guessed that he must have heard of her from his Divination Professor at some point. Harry waved his hand at her and she gave a joyful wave back.

Lucius then moved over to a boy that looked too young to be away from his parents. He had short straw-coloured hair that was set nicely and adorable brown eyes that looked at him in curiosity. Malfoy smiled at the young kid and whispered into Harry's ear, "Seems too young to be here, doesn't he? He's only three. His name is Barty Crouch Junior, son of the esteemed Bartemius Crouch, who, if I am correct, is your mother's cousin."

Harry looked at Lucius and muttered to him, "I didn't know that the kid's mother would be willing to let him be, I thought she was the good parent."

Lucius said to him, "She is in St. Mungo's, her health has always been fluctuating and therefore, she doesn't really notice how neglectful your mother's cousin is with his own son."

Harry closed his eyes and opened them again. He let out a sigh and told Lucius, "At least he didn't let the kid roam around on his own."

Lucius rolled his eyes and asked Harry, "Would that really make it better?"

Without hearing Harry's answer, Lucius continued on to two boys that looked the same in every way, except one had grey eyes and the other had blue eyes. Malfoy introduced them, "Potter, meet the hosts of this gala, Sirius Black and his younger brother, Regulus."

Harry muttered to Lucius, "I am pretty sure they are too young to be the hosts."

Lucius tried saying something to him in response to that but Harry didn't hear him as he was too busy looking at Sirius Black. The boy didn't even look like the man Harry knew but that was obvious.

Malfoy's voice finally reached his ear, "Anyway, Potter, this is Narcissa Black", the blonde boy was pointing at a young girl, slightly older than Harry, with blonde hair and blue eyes, she looked like an angel's dream with her cute smile as well. Lucius continued, "Andromeda Black" while pointing towards a girl that was almost Malfoy's age, with long mousy brown hair and warm brown eyes. She reminded Harry of Nymphadora Tonks from his first life and he knew why, she had been the Auror's mother.

Lucius finished the introduction, "and finally, the eldest of the Black children, Bellatrix Black" and pointed towards a girl slightly older than Lucius, who, honestly, didn't look like her sisters at all but more like her cousins, Sirius and Regulus. She had wavy black hair, mischievous blue eyes and an aura of 'Don't Mess with Me'.

Harry bowed his head in respect to the Black Children. Sirius and Regulus waved at him amicably and then returned to their chatting, Narcissa and Andromeda gave him a smile as a form of greeting and then went back to their chatting and finally, Bellatrix, well, she came over to Lucius and Harry.

Bellatrix said to Harry, "Listen, Potter, I want you to call me Bella, none of this 'Miss Black' or 'Bellatrix' crap, alright?"

Harry nodded quickly, he really didn't want to be in her presence more than he had to.

Bellatrix, Bella, turned to Malfoy and said something to him. Lucius answered back something and Bella laughed at him. She then turned to Harry and said with a polite smile, "Listen, Potter, if you need anything, you can come to me or Lucius here. While you are here, you are our responsibility, like every kid here. Understood?"

Harry nodded without hearing anything, he would do anything if he can limit his time with Bellatrix.

Bella gave him a polite smile and left with Malfoy. As Harry saw their receding backs, a voice to his left asked him, "So what's going on, Potter?"

It was David Yaxley.

AN: Alright, folks, I have decided on a schedule to make myself write more often and not delay any chapter. I will try to post a chapter between the 1st and 15th of each month, otherwise I will post two chapters instead of one.

In other news, I wish to thank HoneyBear84 and fthamyres for your reviews.
