Chapter 2:
Hello again everyone and welcome back to a new chapter, so before we get into it I would like to thank everyone who has liked and followed this story but I have to ask, why what makes ya'll like this thing that I think could use serious work. Why do ya'll like this not that I'm complaining just curious, anyway this chapter will have a bit of a focus on the living world for the most part so don't expect to see the main cast all that much, on with the chapter.
Even as the summer sun shined in through the window of the headmasters office with the bright youthfulness that it always seemed to infuse the world with whenever it came all was not well with Albus. Albus was tired, over the century he has been alive this moment would go down as one he would always regret doing, after leaving Harry on the Dursley's doorstep only to have Abrigal Figg tell him she witnessed the muggle auroras leaving. With Vernon in hand cuffs and arguing with them Petunia being taken as well and Dudley being led away by someone from what she called child protection services all because the body of one Harry Potter had been found loaded into the boot of the Dursley's car.
Once the news had reached Albus he realized how much he had failed, he had never truly felt his age until n this moment when he realized he had to tell the entire wizarding world that their savior had died at the hands of his muggle relatives.
But first he had to tell the man who was closes to his mother before he broke the news to anyone else, so it was with a heavy heart that he had called Severus to his office and told him what had happened and what they had found out since he had been told.
"They are saying his uncle had puched him so hard that when his head hit the counter it broke the skull and damaged the brain he died almost instantly they say but that he might have been saved if they had brought him to a hospital sooner. Something about resuscitation or something like that, they also found that he was forced to live in a cupboard under the stairs and was forced to cook and clean for them while being starved and insulted if not beaten for anything perceived as weird or `freakish` by their own words."
Severus just stared blankly ahead as if he had lost the will to live, as if he was nothing but a shell left behind after it had been drained of everything, and there in the corner of his eyes was a lone tear of a broken man.
Albus sighed and got up and left the room to let the boy grieve for that which he lost the only thing he had left of his sister the girl he loved above all others and the one he lost gone from all but his memory. Albus almost wish they hadn't been told this had happened but that would be even worse in so many ways, and so for what seem to be the hundredth time that day he wished it had been him to pay the price.
He had lost much and now he lost someone who was denied basic human rights and love of not just that but his parents and their love, once again Albus felt that others were paying for his mistakes all because he wanted to give everyone a second chance.
It was at this exact moment as Albus strode down the halls of Hogwarts that Snape was having his own revelations, as he sat there wondering why he had even been denied a chance that he came to a thought from his days as a death eater. He gains some light in his eyes as he starts to realize that the boy may yet have a chance to live once again if he can pull this off and that he may be able to right all the wrongs he had made with Lily.
With renewed purpose Snape stood from his chair and began to briskly walk to his quarters in the dungeons to begin with his new project to save Lily's son from deaths grip, soon enough he is in his personal potion room and begins to move all the furniture along the walls. He leaves a large open area in the middle of the floor and then heads to his room to grab the book he had managed to keep out of Voldermorts hands through the war. It was a book that belonged to Morgana that allowed her to not only summon demons but to summon the dead as well so that she could torment the soldiers she had to face.
But today Snape was going to us it to give a soul another chance at a life that they were denied, as he began to read through the book he didn't take notice of a shadow that belonged to nothing sneaking away from the room.
Unbeknownst to Snape he was being watched by the spirit of the very women that he loved because she wanted to see what he would do now that he had lost everything, she was astonished at what he was going to do but concerned.
After all since that damn piece of Voldermorts soul was stuck in Harry he got sent to hell and because he went there he more than likely didn't look human, which may lead to some problems so she would see what she could do for her own child once they had been summoned form hell.
Even if she couldn't be with her child she still could watch over him but thanks to Severus she may be able to help her child once he resurrects him since he will still have death energy which should allow her to give him any advantage she could.
As this was going on Albus had finally returned to his office to find Snape gone, he thought that he may have left to grieve in his potion room and so let him be.
He sat watching Fawks for a few minutes just trying to figure out how to break the news when suddenly he goes ridged and a bright green light hits Fawks before he can do anything, from a nearby shadowy corner a man steps out.
He looks similar to Albus but younger and wearing thinner robes, as Albus tries to struggle under the body bind curse he has placed on him the man walks closer and begins to talk.
"Greetings Albus it's a pleasure to meet you my name is Gread Oland and I am here to take your spot and live a life of luxury and power so thanks for making today so perfect with this whole boy-who-lived being dead thing it helps so much. After all when the news gets out no one will really be paying attention enough to notice the changes I make while I take everything over and make them turn me into their god."
"But don't worry your name won't be forgotten and I'm not going to destroy our ways just enhance them a little more so I hope you've made peace with your life good by Albus Avada Kedavra!"
Harry had been at the hotel for a week and could already tell that Alastor was having the time of his afterlife messing with Vaggie and angering Husker constantly with his jokes and constant poking of their buttons.
"Come now my dear you should really turn that frown upside down, after all what would the customers think if they see a staff member frowning constantly."
Case in point Alastor could be found right now messing with Vaggie either forcing her to smile or going to do something to her to make her smile.
"ALASTOR!"
Correction did something, Harry sighed and moved towards the room where they had been talking, once he entered he immediately saw the problem, Alastor had turned Vaggie's head upside down so now her frown looked like a smile while she chased Alastor with her spear. Meanwhile Alastor appeared unfazed by the threat r the girl chasing him simply keeping his smile up all the while and enjoying the show, but Harry decided to intervene and stop Alastor's little game before anything extreme happens.
"Alastor could you please fix her we don't need her to be more wound up than normal, Vaggie please stop chasing him all that's going to do is encourage him and exhaust or hurt you." Alastor seems to pout before righting Vaggie's head while she stops chasing him then stalks off while muttering under her breath in a language Harry didn't know.
"Did you have to ruin my fun like that kiddo, I was going to change her back after she tired herself out a little it was all in good fun I mean did you see her smile?"
Harry sighs at Alastor's antics and simply walks out of the room and towards the kitchen were he plans to cook some beef stew with Charlie for tonights dinner before he and she spend an hour just singing and playing.
As he was thinking this something begins to sneak up from behind him and before he can react harry is tackled to the ground, quickly turning to see what had tackled him Harry finds Angel sitting on top of him with three arms around him and one running through his hair.
'Sigh' "Angel why did you tackle hug me?"
Angel hummed for a moment before addressing the young gorgons question.
"Well you're the only person in this place besides Charlie who likes me and you are able to keep your other half from hurting me from wanting to cuddle something so I chose to enjoy it the most I can and since you somehow escaped me last night and made me sleep alone you owe me."
Harry huffed at the answer while also feeling nice from the fluffiness of Angel before using his shadow powers to escape his prison and appear in the kitchen surprising Charlie.
"Oh… Harry what have we talked about teleporting around the hotel you nearly gave me a heart attack."
"Sorry Charlie but I had to escape Angel he sneak attacked me so I had to use it to get away from him you aren't mad at me are you?"
Charlie smiled and then hugged Harry. "No I could never be mad at you, and you were right to use your powers at that moment because knowing Angel he might have done something inappropriate."
Harry chuckled at that not believing angel would do such a thing to him before he broke the hug and they began to work on the stew, Charlie began to chop up the ingredients while harry took care of the broth.
As they did this Alastor was having a conversation with Angel.
"Listen you floozy I do not want that child catching anything from you so don't touch him you hear me or I will do something unpleasant that not even your degenerate mind could think up a kink got it."
"No that kid is to adorable, those antlers make him seem vulnerable, those eyes could make even an old crone have a filthy dream, and his scale are exquisite so I will not stop cuddling him simply because your just an over protective daddy wannabe."
Alastor suddenly reached forward and wraps his hand round Angel's throat and squeezes.
"Listen you pathetic love parasite if I find that he has contracted something because of you this will seem like the most pleasant dream you ever had do you understand me?"
Angel just nods his head before Alastor lets him go and he sinks to the floor like he has no bones in his legs anymore, Vaggie stood outside the door and just couldn't believe what she heard.
She was happy to see Angel taken down a peg but the way Alastor acted made her feel her worries are justified and even though she hates the idea if it came down to it she would use Harry against Alastor to stop him.
"Dinners ready everyone so come and get it, also Alastor stop being mean to Angel when he's done nothing wrong it's just a hug nothing more so apologize and come set the table."
Alastor walks out the room looks at Vaggie and winks before continuing while humming a tune, with that single tact Vaggie worries even more and wonders if they will survive having that man here even with Harry.
I hope you all enjoyed and hope that it wasn't too confusing, so here it is the chapter where we see a glimpse of those that haven't yet been introduced and I'm sure any of you are wondering what's going to happen with Snape who was that man that killed Dumbledore and what's going on with Lily. You're just going to have to wait for the next chapters for those answers, so until then thanks for reading this and I hope to see you all in the next chapter bye bye.
