Chapter 1: Change of the fate

In the busy street crowded by people, lone boy around age of six could be seen clutching 100 dollar bill. The said boy was a beautiful child with pale skin, striking green eyes and messy dark hair. He wore baggy clothes. His name is Harry potter also known as Freak courtesy to his normal hard working good family.

"I'm free" Said boy whispered with wide smile.

He was quite intelligent compared to other kids around his own age.

He knew his family abandoned him in US while touring from England and this thought scared him and at the same time thrilled him with excitement.

He no longer will be beaten and work like slave to his family ever again.

His life back in home was miserable. He lived in cupboard under the stairs.

From early morning he would work like a slave. His day starts with preparing breakfast for Dursley family then cleaning the house, sometimes working in garden, making dinner, doing laundry till night. Sometimes becoming a punching bag for his cousin Dudley till he is bored and occasional beatings from his aunt Petunia and uncle Vernon.

Harry himself didn't have any friends. A human friend at least. His only friend was a little green garden snake. Sadly he couldn't bring the snake with him.

He met his friend while tending the garden as usual. Right then he understood why his family called him a freak. Otherwise how could normal people can speak with snakes and move things with their mind.

Harry thought 'With this 100 dollars i won't starve for few days, first i have to find a shelter'

Then he started walking to edge of the city vanishing in the midst of the people.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's been 7 days since he was abandoned.

He was starving. At least he ate for 4 days until some older kids beat him and took his money.

He traveled quite far from the city. He was ended up in some kind of cemetery after running from mean local older homeless kids. For some reason those hooligans ceased to chase him after he entered the cemetery. He thought cheekily 'Maybe they are afraid. Cowards'

Just in case he curled up behind the big tombstone and waited to make sure those kids to leave the vicinity. While waiting tired and starved Harry dozed off without realizing.

Then he woke when he felt something was poking his head.

When he opened his eyes he saw a pale little girl around his age in black dress with white collar poking his head with handle of the shovel she was holding and surprised.

When girl saw Harry waking up she said in monotone voice "Oh, How unfortunate, you are alive"

Surprised Harry asked "What do you mean. What are you doing here?"

In return girl asked emotionlessly "What are you doing here?, It is private property" .

"I'm sorry, i didn't know. I'm Harry. What is your name?" Harry asked awkwardly.

The girl just stared at him with piercing black eyes making Harry uncomfortable.

Harry decided to try his luck and asked "Do you have any food i'm starving please."

The girl raised her left eyebrow at "Please" part then turned around then said simply "Follow me"

Harry was happy. At least he was going to have a meal. He stood up and followed the girl.

After walking for around 30 minutes in awkward silence they arrived in front of an eerie mansion.

While walking when Harry saw a Mansion from far he started to regret asking food from the girl. But oddly there was a pulling feeling from the mansion. Even though he was unnerved this pulling feeling was leading him to the mansion strongly.

After arriving in front of the large door the girl grabbed Harry's hand then dragged him into the kitchen.

The interior of the house was in Harry's eyes were ancient and odd like he was in the museum.

When he reached the kitchen dragged by the girl he heard smooth soothing voice.

"Wednesday my darling. Who is your friend"

Harry turned around instantly then saw a beautiful pale woman in long tight black dress with long black hair dark as night.

"I found him in family cemetery" Wednesday answered.

Older woman bent down little facing Harry then asked with silky voice "Hello there darling. What's your name?"

"My name is Harry Potter. Miss?" Harry answered awkwardly

When the older woman heard his name flash of recognition lit in her eyes briefly then smiled sweetly "Nice to meet you Harry. My name is Morticia Addams. I'm Wednesday's mother"

"I'm sorry Mrs. Addams i didn't know it was your family's property" Harry said nervously.

"It is quite alright. What were you doing there?" Morticia asked.

Before Harry could answer he heard hissing voice saying "What a tasty looking meat has come"

Harry unknowingly answered in parseltongue "please don't eat me" then saw who he was talking to.

It was a jet black around 5 meters long big snake.

The snake perked up then hissed "I didn't mean you to scare you, young speaker"

Harry froze. He didn't realize he was talking in snake language until he saw the snake. With horror stricken face he slowly turned to Morticia.

Morticia was quite surprised to see a descendant of Potter line talking in parseltongue.

Harry was really scared. Whenever he used his abilities accidentally Dursley would beat him. He walked back slowly while pleading "Please don't hurt me. I won't do freakish stuffs again"

He occasionally could teleport when he really wanted to. Harry was trying hard to teleport away. But it wasn't working

When Morticia heard him, she frowned.

When Harry saw Morticia frowning Harry felt terror. And thought he would beaten by her.

Morticia understood she was scaring him. She kneeled in front of him then caressed his cheek with her palm earning twitch from Harry and thought 'Poor child' then said with calm soothing voice "Why would i hurt you my dear. You have a wonderful gift"

When Morticia touched his cheek he thought he was going to get beaten but surprised how cold it felt at the same time how warm it felt then when he heard her saying "gift" he was really surprised. Then asked "Really? You don't hate me". He couldn't believe she was not angry.

Morticia said to Harry "Of course my dear. It is a really wonderful gift. One day you will become a really powerful wizard"

Shocked Harry whispered "A wizard?"

"Yes. A wizard" Morticia answered.

With a wavering voice Harry asked "I can do those things because i'm a wizard?" Then added feeling more at ease "How do you know i am wizard?"

"Because i'm a witch" Morticia answered.

"Witch?" confused Harry asked

"Male magicals are called Wizard and females are called Witch" Morticia informed him.

"What else can you do?" Morticia asked.

"I can pop to places i have been before. And i can move things with my mind" Harry answered.

"You my dear Harry, you are really talented then" Morticia praised him.

Not used to praise, Harry felt awkward and didn't know what to say.

Then Morticia stood up then clapped her hands twice.

Soon after she clapped her hands tall Frankenstein's monster like man appeared then said with deep loud voice "You called"

"Yes Lurch. Call the family. Today we will feast" Morticia announced with a wide smile.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the dining room 6 people and one odd creature could be seen sitting around large table.

Man in elegant suit, chubby young boy and Morticia, Wednesday, hand called It and Lurch the butler

They were Addams family members and Harry Potter minus Grandmama who was making the meal and the missing uncle that Harry didn't know of yet.

Harry was sitting between Morticia and Wednesday.

While the meal was being prepared they come to know of the situation Harry was in.

Soon after Grandmama announced the meal was ready and started to serve them.

After Grandmama took a seat ready to eat "To our guest Harry Potter" With loud voice, Head of the Addams family Gomez Addams raised the wine glass he was holding.

Every other members minus the kids raised their wine glasses, shouted "To Harry Potter" then emptied their wine.

Harry felt really awkward and fidgeted on his chair.

Then they started to eat their meal.

Harry was quite hesitant whether he should eat or not. The meal was like something came out of horror movie. He hesitantly grabbed the spoon then tasted it. He instantly liked it. Then wolfed it down.

When Granny Frump known as Grandmama who is an small old lady with gray hair saw Harry, she smiled widely showing her rotting teeth exclaimed. "Atta boy! Men should eat like that" earning laughter from the family.

Gomez Addams who was in elegant suit then asked from Harry out of nowhere "Harry would you like to become a member of our family"

Harry started to choke on his food at this sudden question. Then asked with great difficulty while coughing "What?"

"We would like to adopt you Harry." Morticia added.

"Really? You mean it?" Harry asked hopefully. Little bit of hope for humans that was left in him ignited in him. He didn't believe in his own ears. Addams family shown him kindness he never felt in his very short life in such a short time. He felt like he was dreaming.

"Yes. We really would like to have a son like you" Morticia said with a warm smile.

"I would like that" Harry said in quiet voice. Staring at the table. Never wanting to wake up if it was a dream.

Everyone heard him even though Harry's voice was so low. They instantly cheered.

Morticia leaned towards Gomez who was seating beside her. Then said "Mon amour"

"Tish. You spoke french" Gomez said seductively earning a loving gaze from Morticia.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

2 months have passed since that fateful day.

Harry fit in the family like a missing puzzle piece.

He now has a loving family. For others eyes they were freaks. But to Harry they were perfect.

He has everything he ever wanted now.

Loving parents. Cute little brother. Little bit cold but cool elder sister by one year. Interesting stories filled Grandmama. Kind but Giant and scary looking butler. Little friend called Thing. And most importantly the large venomous snake called Mortifer who he met when he just arrived. Harry and Mortifer bounded and Mortifer became Harry's familiar.

Mortifer is a magical snake. Wherever Harry go Mortifer always tagged along. He mostly shrinked down and coiled around Harry's neck.

Harry was mediating silently in his room using method Morticia taught him, preparing for what is coming.

The Addams family decided to blood adopt Harry into their family. Now it was time for the ritual Harry was eagerly waiting.

Harry wanted to go through the ritual as soon as possible but sadly Grandmama needed time for preparation.

"Harry dear, Come here. It is time" Morticia called Harry.

Harry's eyes snapped open. He stood up then started to walk to the direction with a wide grin where his new mother's voice came.

He was ecstatic. Now he was going to become a real member of the Addams family

When Harry arrived where his mother called, all of the Addams family members were waiting open field behind the mansion, all wearing dark robes and stood circling dark substance filled large bath.

Mortifer silently slithered off from Harry.

Without a word, with a made up mind Harry took of his clothes then went inside into the large bath leaving only his head visible.

As soon as Harry entered the bath Grandmama started to speak in unknown language and circled the bath still chanting.

Everything was going smoothly. But suddenly Harry's lightning shaped scar that was on his forehead split open and black substance started oozing.

Harry screamed in agony.

"Mama! What's going on" Morticia asked from Granny frump worriedly.

"Don't worry everything is under control. That parasite soul won't last long. Stop distracting me" Granny Frump said confidently then resumed the chants.

After few minutes of struggle, The parasite soul burst out of Harry's scar with ear deafening screech and disintegrated to the sky leaving unconscious Harry.

When the parasite soul left Granny Frump started to shout with great vigor "Rise Hadrian Addams, Rise" Followed by all other Addams family member shouting "Rise Hadrian Addams, Rise"

Slowly Harry's body started to float out of bath and slowly descended outside of the bath.

Without losing time Lurch wrapped his body with towel never seen speed he ever shown and place him on the stone bed that was near.

"Mama, Why is Hadrian not waking up. He should be awake" Morticia asked.

"What's going on Grandmama." Wednesday asked worry evident in her voice even though her voice was monotone.

"Hush dear. Nothing is wrong. Ritual was successful. He will wake up tomorrow. That soul was stronger than we thought. He is just exhausted. We just need to wait" Granny Frump said reassuringly.

Mortifer slithered through Addams family then climbed up to the stone bed and rested on Harry guarding him.

Seeing this young Pugsley said adorably "I will stay here too until he wakes up"

"Let's stay here for tonight till he wakes up then" Gomez said with smile patting Pugsley's head. Then Addams family stayed through the night circling Harry who is now called Hadrian Addams the new middle child of the Addams.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After month since Harry disappeared madam Arabella Figg the squib informed Dumbledore that Harry was missing.

She took this long to inform was because it was normal for Harry to been seen outside tending the garden once in a month

Dumbledore immediately visited Dursleys to find out what happened to Harry Potter. Then with help of legitimacy he found out they abandoned him in US.

Before he left Dursleys he said with grave tone "Without Harry here fueling the wards you can consider yourselves as dead." then he stormed of leaving ashen faced Dursleys.

Only thing keeping his mind at peace was Harry's name on the enrollment artifact was still there.

Dumbledore couldn't let Harry die before he fulfilled his role in the prophecy.

Unlike for Addams In Scotland stern looking witch was panicking. She was deputy headmistress of Hogwarts Professor Minerva McGonagall.

She was regretting leaving Harry at doorstep of Dursleys. Only thing she could do was checking everyday whether Harry's name was on the enrollment list.

One day as usually when she was checking the name Harry's name vanished for few seconds then in place of his name new name Hadrian Potter-Addams materialized.

"Addams" Her voice shook. She couldn't believe The Darkest family there was in history of magic got their hand on poor Harry.

Professor Minerva McGonagall immediately grabbed the artifact then dashed to the Headmaster's office while shouting hysterically "Albus, Albus...."

When Professor Minerva McGonagall reached the Headmaster's office Dumbledore asked "What happened Minerva. Why are you shouting."

"Albus it's Harry" Minerva said between her heavy breathings.

"Did Harry's name vanish" Dumbledore asked gravely.

"No. It is worse. Addams family has him" Minerva said hurriedly then showed his name.

"Hadrian Potter-Addams" Dumbledore read out loud then his face sunk.

What do you think?

I'm having a little trouble. Should Harry go to Hogwarts when he reach 11 or should i use Goblet of fire when he is around 14. What do you think is the best?
