14 a not so endearing reunion

The following week past as the three before. The next day, Dudley had his birthday and was again take to the Zoo. Since I hadn't go with them, the whole incident with the boa hadn't happened, it's wasn't like I need some plotline to let me know that I was a Parslemouth. While they were happily touring the Zoo, I had deconstructed all the gifts wrap, plastic, and cardboard left behind the aftermatch of Dudders party. Who knows when one needs cardboard and wrap? I also have deconstructed paper, with the large land of the forbidden forest, there bound to be fallen branch that I can transform into papers.

Why I need paper? Simple, I intend to raid the Hogwarts library. I know that the book would be protected by anti-copying spell but who says that I need direct magic to copy books? There where cardboard enters in line to create the cover, along with few pigments and I will rapidly have a worthy library on my own. The problem, I don't actually have the place to stock everything. That why I had started to go through runes and arithmancy books. I need to start to learn the creation of runic schemes and enchant my newly created trunk.

I also intend to update my pouch with an expanded trunk. I want to see if I can use a multiple compartment one and gain more that one storing space. With my study of those two news subjects, the week past rapidly, so much that I was completely caught off guard of who, on a Tuesday morning, rings the doorbell.

"Boy..."

"I know I'm on it, uncle Vernon." Only to be answered by a grunt as the man's resume is news reading when I leave a teacup on his side in passing. Taking off to the door I completely froze when I see who was behind it.

"Hello, you must be Harry, right? I came to speak to the Dursley's" Said her cheerfully, but I still caught the slight frown that vanishes as fast as it came.

"Boy, who it is?" The bellowing of the whale starts kicking my brain.

"Someone wanting something with you Uncle Vernon." Say I, making her enter without a word and leading her to the living room while I start to retreat to my cupboard, not wanting to have anything to do with their speech. Unfortunately, the bitch wouldn't leave me to slip away.

"I think it's better if you stay harry." Kindly say her while Petunia came in the room, only to freeze at the voice and the face she hadn't see and hear the last decade.

"What are you doing here, you and your kins have sworn to not take a step in this house again!" Vehenemantly hiss Petunia.

"It good to see you to sister, but you know that they were a chance that I would come." Respond a patronizing Lily while taking out a letter from a pouch on her other hand.

Seeing the letter a feeling of dread course through the two elder Dursley back.

"You say that he wouldn't go their, that he was a squid!"

"Squib, and how much accidental magic does he had those last ten years?"

'So those bastards were monitoring me, and she knows that I was magically active.'

-Seem that you where right buddy, they want to control you and don't care about you, not a single

one of them.-

'It doesn't matter, I only need to encounter the boy, if he is controlled I will spare him if not, this will be the last of the Potter generation.'

While the shouting match continued between the two sisters, Harry looks at his Uncle that was becoming redder and redder by the minute. Going to the kitchen to retrieve something, Harry reappears near him.

"Uncle."

Hearing the boy he turn his head, seeing the little bottle he had in hand. nodding he takes it and drops three drops in the new cup of tea that Harry serves him alongside a plate of biscuits. The bottle was the doctor's prescription for Vernon's new heartache. In the last month, his pressure had shot to a new high under the stress of the new harry. When the two of them turn their head to the new silent scene, the see the two women looking at them. While Lily looks smug, Petunia was biting her lower lip before talking.

"You will go with her, she will bring you to buy your furniture for the new year."

"Why should I need news furniture? I still have someplace in my books, I m sure they can still last for a month or two." Say harry faking a clueless face.

"You... You will not go to St Brutus, other arrangement had been made."

"Ho, okay."

Hearing his lack of curiosity lily was throw out balance, remembering how she reacted when she was his age, hearing that she was a witch and will go to a special school.

"Aren't you curious about your new school?" ask her puzzled.

"Why, it just a school like the other, right?"

When she hears she understand, turning again to her sister, she sees her cringle a little, confirming her doubt, before facing him again.

"It's not a normal school Harry, Hogwarts is a school for the gifted, where each witch and wizard learn magic." Said hear with an expecting smile, only for her to froze when he responded.

Deadpan Harry looks at her.

"Magic isn't real lady, Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia say so."

"You... You say nothing to him?!" She starts before making volt-face and screams a Petunia.

"What did you expect, you told us in your letter that he would have magic but not enough to attend that school of freak! Of course, we didn't say anything!" Snap Petunia at her.

"You are a wizard, Harry, like your parents are, and like them, you will go to Hogwarts."

"Are? Aren't my parents dead?"

Once again Lily was caught off guard when she hears her son.

'How can't he didn't even know about us? Or was he don't consider him of the same family, but that would mean that he had regained his memories... No that not right, he wouldn't have lived here with muggle if that was the case..." While she was trying to understand the confusing situation, the last blow was delivered shortly.

"Excuse me lady, but who are you?"

Then everything came to place, the boy doesn't know she the woman that gives him birth, and that spell that the headmaster has cast have successfully bound the Dursley's, making them unable to tell him who was his parent and that they were still alive in the magic world. If that were the case, everything will be simpler. Without knowledge of her and her husband, the case would be but a formality.

"Me? I'm a Hogwarts professor in charge of muggle-born, to introduce them to the magical world!"

-Something isn't right.-

'I know, let see what see do before acting but something tells me that the Potter account will be soon lighter of quite a few Galleon.'

-Amen, brother, amen.-

After all of this, she finally passes him his letter, letting open it.

"We will go now, it shouldn't take much time and I have another duty today." Say her, pushing him slightly toward the door, not caring for his appearance.

'Duty?'

-How much on the little shit birthday party?-

'What were the 31 already?!'

-... It only now that you realize? On no only the 30.-

'Sorry, I was absorbed with more important business.'

-Yes, the runes, but also remember that today the last day here, In a few hours we would be able to sink the goblins on their ass to recover what they own you, ditch those bastards and finally get rid of that leach once for all.-

'Hum, I was also thinking of a little sphere in level 9 of the ministry of magic.'

-The prophecy? What of it?-

'I don't think it good to let it there, I came to change my name, I don't know if I would still be able to take it after, better to it now that I still can. If it concerns me or if it actually exists, who knows what is different that I know.'

Without a single clue of what he was thinking, Lily Potter take the young boy in the backyard before clutching her hand on his shoulder an apparate directly in the apparition point of Diagon Alley without warrning.
