I dont own Harry Potter or The Ring or any characters mentioned...

Dumbledore chuckled to himself as he sat on his throne like chair, perched like a vulture. The truth was, Dumbledore was a reprehensible person, as were the beasts that he kept on a short leash, the vicious Weasley family. Dumbledore had plans for their daughter Ginny Weasley to marry Harry Potter so he could keep an eye on the lad, and steal some of his vast wealth. Dumbledore mused to himself that he would likely have to give Harry a love potion because Ginny was far from beautiful, although it was unlikely to be a long marriage, due to Mr. Potter likely falling to Tom. The bottom line was after Harry fell to Voldemort, the Weasley's would inherit the Potter fortune and share it with Dumbledore whom would put it to good use, mainly to line his own pockets, under the guise of trying to stop Voldemort. Dumbledore lit a cigar and downed a two liter of soda before giggling at his plan. Dumbledore planned on allowing Tom a few years to grow his legend when he returned and after he disposed of Potter, then he would swoop in and dispatch his former student, making his legend insurmountable, after all, he would at that point have taken out Grindelwald and Voldemort.

Just then, Dumbledore's fireplace lit up, it was Molly and Arthur with young Ginerva on a child leash.

"Hello Albus, I've talked it over with the family and we are all on board, Ginny will make a fine Lady Potter. We are ready to sign the betrothal contract and are ready for our first payment!" Arthur said smoothly with all the jubilation of a proud papa.Dumbledore grinned as he knew Arthur and Molly were both weak willed when it came to gold, Albus Dumbledore believed power was the prize and he had it, as he was in charge of 39 seats on the Wizangamot that belonged to the Potter family, which gave him and the light a super majority. If he ever lost those seats the Wizangamot would still lean light but would likely reject his more extreme proposals such as siezing 3 quarters of every purebloods (except the Weasleys) Gringotts vault and redistributing the wealth to the muggleborns after Albus got his cut.

Dumbledore chuckled as he handed the family a large sack of gold that he had secured just that morning.

Meanwhile in Surrey:

Harry Potter never wished he had a friend more than at this very moment. Mr. Potter was currently on the roof of the school after he had escaped his cousin Dudley and his band of foolish followers. Harry saw Piers and some of the other skinny bullies climbing the back latter to the roof with pocket knives in their hands, and decided the best course of action was to jump in the nearby dumpster that was out of reach of Dudley, whom was already suffering the meat sweats watching Harry as he braced himself for the fall in the waste. Luckily for Harry, it never came.Harry screamed as he was thrust into what he could only describe as freezing water, he couldn't tell it was pitch black. He felt around and deducted he was in a very cramped space.Harry suddenly became very still when he realized he was not alone. He became freightned when someone spoke to him, a little girl to be exact, but the voice was coming from his own head. "Who are you" she asked. Harry suddenly felt compelled to answer. "I'm Harry" he answered out loud not knowing if she could also hear his thoughts."I'm Samara" the girl answered in his head. Harry was struggling not knowing where he was and why he was there and who was here with him. She seemed to understand and spoke out loud for the first time. "We are in the bottom of a well" she said in an emotionless voice. "Why" Harry asked shocked. "I can show you" she said simply. Suddenly a hand grabbed Harry's arm. A minute later Harry understood the events that caused his wellmate to be there. Harry was flabbergasted, he knew his own family treated him horribly, but what Samara had been through took the cake. Harry tried to show her his own life, so he reached out and grabbed her own arm and brought his memories to the forefront. He knew it was a success as he felt the sympathy of Samara, and they spent the better part of four hours talking of their lives and found themselves to be kindered spirits. Both loners, with a sense of rage at the outside world for ingnoring their cries for help, broken hearts that society forgot. With a sense of resolve he vowed they would both get out and live their lives free of the adults that had come to make their lives so difficult. Suddenly, Harry felt the feeling of transportation again and found himself once again in a new place. The place that he now found himself in looked like a castle of some kind. To Harry's great relief he was not alone, he recognized Samara from the vision he had, slowly getting up, no doubt confused but pleased about suddenly leaving the well."Master Harry, you're back!" said a small squeaky voice as a creature of some kind appeared. Seeing Harry's confused expression, the elf explained itself. "I am Treeflex, the head elf of Potter castle" it said proudly. Harry promptly fainted. Samara smiled, relieved to have a friend, one whom like her had powers, and could understand she was not a freak. Freak, the word that she had heard her daddy call her grated her nerves like nothing she could ever imagine, now it was more intense, as she remembered the memories her Harry had shown her.

Meanwhile in Surrey.Vernon Dursley downed a third brandy as he celebrated the disappearance of the brat. Suddenly Vernon felt a cold presence and saw a young girl sitting on his brand new leather couch with her hair completely covering her face. "Who the blazes are you and what are you doing in my damn house" Vernon roared to the unflinching girl. "You hurt my Harry" she said simply as she pushed back her hair, Vernon did not have time to scream before he hit the floor. Petunia Dursley had just picked up a new video game console for Dudley, to celebrate the brat's dissappearence. She had left Vernon and Dudley at home for some bonding time, and so she could pull off the surprise. When she walked in she found the living room devoid of any life. "I'm home where are my two handsome men"? Petunia saw Dudley huddled in a corner whimpering before she turned around and let out a final scream.

3 months later: Dumbledore was deeply disturbed when Harry never accepted his Hogwarts letter. and even sent Hagrid to Privet Drive to checknin on the young Potter. What Hagrid reported to him shocked him to the core. It appeared, Harry had dissappear without a trace months ago. But that was not even the strange part, it appered Vernon, Petunia, and even Miss Figg had perished under unusual circumstances with Dudley being placed in a mental institution after having lost his mind, after some investigation, Dumbledore was able to deduce Harry was behind a fidlius curse. This struck fear in Dumbledore, not for the lads safety, but the fact that somebody else could be influencing him and his vast fortune.Dumbledore would finally get his confirmation from Harry who would start as a fifth year. So caught in his schemes to make sure Harry could be salvaged, that Dumbledore paid no mind and did not connect the fact that another student would also be starting their Hogwarts career in their fifth year, one Samara Morgan.
