Family and Mates?
Harry Potter, The-Boy-Who-Lived, the boy who killed Voldomort and saved the Wizarding world, was sat pretending to eat breakfast with his so called 'friends'
After the war was over, Harry had been killed and turned into a vampire, with the ability to read minds, and communicate with other people's minds. But he kept it well hidden under a glamour charm. There were only two people who knew about him, and they were Fred and George, who had found him in the middle of his transformation. They knew what he was from the start and accepted him with open arms.
Fred and George had obviously survived the war, but so did Ginny, Hermione, Ron, Dumbledore, the rest of the Weasley`s, Remus, Sirius and the Malfoy`s.
Towards the end of the war the Malfoy`s had come to Harry and asked for his help, along with Professor Snape, much to the Professor`s dislike, and they had become quite loyal to Harry after the war.
Remus and Sirius had moved to America before the war had started with Teddy Remus`s son, to stay safe after Tonks, Teddy`s mother had been killed. Everyone had mourned at the loss.
Harry`s Pov
I was sat in the Great hall for 'breakfast', next to Ginny who was clinging to me and talking about something uninteresting, when the mail started to arrive
"Harry, aren`t you going to eat?" Ginny asked
"Already have." I held out my arm as Hedwig flew towards me. She landed on my arm and I removed the letters, and stroked her breast feathers before feeding her a piece of bacon, and received a 'Thank you' from her mind as she hopped up onto my shoulder
"Who`s your mail from Harry?" Ginny asked while trying to look over my shoulder at them
"Mind your own business Ginny." I then stood up and left the Great hall
"What`s wrong with him?" Ron asked, I shook my head and looked at my letters, one was from Gringotts and the other was from Sirius. I sighed and connected my mind with Draco`s
{Drake, where is your Godfather?}
A few minutes later Draco came rushing out of the Great hall, and rounded on me
"What the hell was that?!" I mentally cursed
"Sorry, I`ll explain later, can you please tell me where Professor Snape is?" he sighed
"Fine, but I better get a full explanation." I nodded
"You will, Potter honour."
"Sev, is in his office, this way." He started walking down the corridor towards the dungeons, I quickly followed him, until he stopped outside the potions classroom and turned to me
"Be nice." I nodded and he entered the room and I followed, closing the door behind me
"I presume Gringotts has contacted you?" Snape asked and I nodded before handing the letter over to him, without him touching my skin. He then opened the letter and read it, as Draco and I sat down at a desk
"Do I get an explanation now?" Draco asked, I sighed
"Can I read this first? It`s from Sirius." He huffed and nodded, I smiled slightly and opened the letter
Pup,
I`m sorry it has taken so long for us to contact you, but we have only just gotten settled in, but anyway congratulations on the defeat of You-Know-Who, I`m sure everyone is proud of you and everyone is happy.
Mooney and I miss you Pup, we hope you`ll come visit us soon, Teddy wants to see you then most. How is everyone by the way? Are they well? Are the twins doing alright in their business? I hope everyone is doing okay, I hope you are well too.
Come visit us soon, we hope to hear from you soon
Padfoot.
"Are you going to visit them?" Draco asked from over my shoulder
"Draco!" I jumped from my seat and moved across the room
"Something wrong Potter?" Snape asked
"I`m...I`m not very well."
"That`s rubbish and you know it Potter, you owe me and explanation as to why you were in my head, while you were outside the Great hall, and you promised me a full explanation." Draco explained, and they both stood up and walked towards me
"Please don`t-" Snape grabbed my hand and quickly dropped it
"Merlin Potter, your skin is ice cold." I whimpered unconsciously and tried to move away from them, only to be stopped by Draco
"You`re wearing a glamour charm aren`t you?" Draco asked, I whimpered again and Snape sighed
"Let it down Potter." I shook my head at Snape`s request
"You`re not leaving until you do." Snape stated. I sighed and dropped the charm, letting them see my vampire features
"You`re a vampire." Draco stated and I nodded, without looking at either of them
"How?" Snape asked
"After the war, a vampire attacked me and turned me."
"You`ve been hiding it that long?" I nodded
"Yeah, the twins found me in the middle of my transformation, and took me back to their flat, I stayed with them for a couple of months, before coming back to school with the, cover of recovering fully to Dumbledore."
"What do you feed off, cause I can`t imagine the twins letting you feed off them." Snape said
"Oh hell no! Never, when I first figured out what I was I ran to the forbidden forest, and fed on the first animal I found, I didn`t kill it, it let me take the blood willingly, I could never harm a human."
"What animal was it?" Draco asked
"Hippogriff, I spoke to it after giving it respect."
"You spoke to it?" Snape asked
"Yeah, I can read minds, and I spoke to him about being a new born and he let me take the blood, I don`t kill the animal, especially in the forbidden forest, and I will never touch a Stag or a Doe." Snape sighed
"I see your reason."
"Who else knows of you being a vampire?" Draco asked
"You`re a vampire?!" we all turned to face the doorway to see, Ron, Hermione and Ginny, stood there. Snape waved his hand and the classroom door slammed shut behind them
((Harry, through the door next to the black board is my office, there is another way out through there, take the letter from my desk and go to Gringotts, Draco and I will meet you there with Lucius, now go!))
(You don`t need to yell)
I ran from the room at top speed, grabbing the letter and leaving through Snape`s office. And ran from the school grounds, all the way to Diagon Alley.
-Time Skip-
By the time I had arrived at Gringotts, I had placed my glamour back up, and was stood waiting outside Gringotts. When I was suddenly ambushed by Rita Skeeter
"Mr. Potter, Mr. Potter how do you feel now that the war is over?!" Rita yelled, I cringed at the loudness of her voice and took a step backwards into somebody, who grabbed my arm and moved me to stand behind them. I looked up and saw the back of Mr. Malfoy
"Mr. Potter has nothing to say to you." Mr. Malfoy said, before turning to me and pushing me inside Gringotts.
"Thank you for that Mr. Malfoy." I tried to lock out the thoughts of other people in the building
"It was not a problem, now would you like to tell me why you were stood outside by yourself?"
"I was waiting for Professor Snape, Draco and you." He nodded and lent down to whisper into my ear
"Now would you like to tell me why, your skin is ice cold?" I whimpered and moved backwards only to knock into someone. I looked to see Snape and Draco
"Father, what were you asking him?" Draco asked as I hid behind Snape
"I just saved Harry from Skeeter and her interview, and I was just asking why his skin is ice cold, since it was safer to ask in her than out there." Mr. Malfoy replied
"Harry, go find Griphook, and we`ll be there in a few minutes." Snape said, I nodded and walked off, only to walk into Griphook, nearly knocking him over
"Griphook, I`m so sorry."
"It`s no problem Mr. Potter, would you like to follow me?" Griphook asked
