Hp: The Outcast

The full moon rises in the sky and the creatures of night are coming out of the woods. The Castle that stands on top of the hill overlooking a calm and serene lake and it's creatures. In an office that is lit by candles that are suspended in the air and under the light of those candles is an old man with a long white beard who is scribbling on papers.

He seems quite happy, yet a little concerned about the coming events of the future. An old bird beside him saw his friend and it made a sound which was a mix of a whistle and a coo. It was trying to comfort his old friend.

The old man saw this and he gently roamed his fingers around the bird's head. As he was playing with his bird. A woman entered his office. She had an ostrich green cloak and was wearing a black robe and a big pointy hat. She had a dumbfounded look on her face and in her hand was a parchment and there was a name written on it.

The old man saw her friend in distress or was it something else entirely she showed the parchment to him and as he read the name. He was flabbergasted, he looked at her and she smiled and had tears in her eyes and she said, "He is not a squib."

The old man didn't have words for what he had done, he got up from his throne and he walked to the window and she said, "Albus, he is a wizard. I can't believe it, her son. I can't wait to meet him."

The old man nodded and words came out of his dry mouth and he put on a smile and said, "Yes, Minny. I want to meet the child as well."

Even though the old man put up a happy front his heart was in turmoil. He then turned to her friend and said, "Minny, I need you to remove his last name from the letter."

She looked at him and she was perplexed and she refuted, "Why? He would want to know who he is? It's his right."

He looked at her friend who was enraged and he put on a calm front and said, "Minny, I understand what you are saying, but we need to remember why we put him there in the first place. If he uses it he will be scorned not to mention in great danger from them. I am asking this for his safety. You can tell him yourself once he is ready to know."

She wanted to refuse but she understood why it was necessary and she reluctantly agreed and nodded in agreement but she didn't stay long she left the office in a hurry.

The old man was thinking how his one decision would again influence the wizarding world. Has the darkness already consumed him? Or the light had finally reached him? Granting him asylum. Only time will tell what will become of him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I always believed that life as we know it ends after we die. I don't believe that once we die, we are judged for our deeds by a guy who sits on a golden throne or any of the various ideologies that people had. I don't believe it.

I believe that once we die, that's it. You are dead, all your accomplishments, your dreams are buried with you in the dirt. I believed it with my whole heart but all that changed. When I woke up from my slumber.

I was in a deep sleep and I felt a little cold and I tried to shuffle and turn around to be a little more cosy but as I did so all that happened was that I fell on the ground. I was woken up from my sleep, I unwrapped myself from the coarse and stiff blanket and I rubbed my eyes and I got up and I felt weird.

I looked at my hands and even though the room was not lit the full moon aided my eyes. I saw two small hands like that of a child. As I saw it I was perplexed and out of words. I quickly checked my surroundings and I saw a small room with a bed that was so small that you could fall off if you turned too much.

The walls were dull cream colour with a small closet on one side to the room. I turned my head and I saw that there was a window in the room from which the light was coming from and next to it was a small desk. There was a letter placed on the desk.

I tried walking to the desk but my body moved a little awkwardly. The body was foreign to me. As I picked the letter off the desk, a sudden rush of memories hit my head and I remembered what was happening and who I was.

I an orphan, I had fallen sick yesterday and I had died or rather that the previous owner of this body had died at night. And I had taken his place. I have been sleeping for two days.

The nuns were a little worried but I would pop my eyes open here and there so they thought I was fine and besides as time passed the fever also came down.

I opened the letter and I leaned a little closer to the window to read it easily. I put the letter under the light of the moon and the contents of the letter shocked me to my core.

"To, Mr Jonathan Beeston,

In-room 15 A

Beeston Orphanage, Nottingham shire

Dear Mr Beeston,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Students shall be required to report to the chamber of Reception upon arrival the dates for which shall be duly advised.

We very much look forward to receiving you as part of the new generation of Hogwarts Heritage.

Yours sincerely,

Professor McGonagall.

4 July 1991."

As I read the contents of the letter I was shocked to my core because if this is real then it means that I am in the world of Harry Potter.

The world of magic is real and I am in it. But something else was a little odd. I didn't have a last name on the letter, everyone who gets the letter has a last name. Why is it that I don't?

I put the letter down. I walked to my bed and I sat down on it and took some deep breaths in. It was a lot to take in. Being in a world of magic was exciting but also very dangerous. I had my memories of the movies and the books, so they will come in handy but I do not know if it would be enough.

Even though I knew how I looked, but I still wanted to see for myself. I got off my bed and I bent down, I saw a trunk. I pulled it out and I opened it. In it there were some clothes, a mirror and a small box. I took the small box out and in it was a ring that was made of a black pearl and silver, there were some engravings on it.

I put the ring aside and I took the mirror out and looked into it. I saw a boy who had black hair, clear white skin and emerald eyes with a hint of amber in it. My face had sharp facial features but I had a rather lanky build.

I put the mirror back in the trunk and I walked over to the window. I looked at the ring and it had an engraving of a crow on it. The ring was beautiful, I was pretty sure that it was something important. Maybe an heir ring? If so then it will come in handy. I maybe able to get some funds, even a house maybe?

I heard a rumble come from my stomach. I sighed thinking that I may not be able to get some food right in the middle of the night. I looked out the window and opened the window and took a deep breath and smiled and said to myself "I am going to do what I want."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day came and I was checked upon by the nuns of the orphanage and I was allowed to rest in my room. I was free from chores and I got some good food as well, although it was just some oatmeal and milk, but still it was very substantial. I need to improve my body, the condition I am in is just pathetic.

I was sitting at the desk and I was writing every little detail that I could remember. I knew the story but I was missing some details and there is no saying that it will be the same as books or movies. Some events might not have even happened, who knows this world could be vastly different. But still I wrote everything down that I could remember.

I was sure that just because I existed some events may never even happen. I decided to use my power of knowledge so that I can become the most powerful wizard that anyone has ever seen and I don't just mean in magical prowess, I mean politically as well. I will use any tactic necessary to gain more power. I will stand at the top of this world.

After I had finished with writing the timeline and the events, I rested for the day. Even though I wanted to work on myself I was in no condition to do so I'll have to wait for a few days to start a light exercise routine.

As I was thinking this, someone entered my room and I turned to see who it was and it was a pudgy kid with two other kids behind him. He looked at me and smirked and said, "So you didn't die after all?" The pudgy whale with crooked teeth was Ken, the two behind him were Charles and Adrian. They were also very fugly.

I sighed and turned my face the other way, Ken gritted his teeth and he said, "Oye, don't ignore me."

I didn't listen, he then huffed and his goons grabbed me and pulled me down the bed and they grabbed my arms and he walked to my face and said, "It would be better if you died you waste of space."

I chuckled and he grunted and asked, "What's so funny?!"

I smirked and said, "You talking about being a waste of space, have you looked at yourself? You look like a white ashy baby hippo but that hippo is still cute, you on the other hand… ugh."

Charles and Adrian who were holding me were holding back their laughter and Ken gritted his teeth and was about to punch me.

But I threw him a death glare and said in a cold tone, "Go ahead and do it. But remember this, I will come back to take revenge on you. Whatever you do to me I will return it a hundred fold, so be very careful what you do next."

As I said that, I felt something coming from deep inside of me. It radiated through out the room. The temperature of the room suddenly dropped and they were scared and confused.

Ken looked around the room but he couldn't understand why all of a sudden he was feeling cold. Charles and Adrian, who were holding me, let go of my arms and Ken put his hand down and he put on a weak smirk and said, "I'll let go of you today but…" I glared at him and he stopped and reluctantly said, "Let's... go."

They got out of my room. As I exhaled sharply and relaxed the temperature of the room came back to normal. I clutched my fist and said, "I was able to get out of it today, but I need to be strong. I need power."
