"Are you two ready to start Hogwarts?" Aunt Cissa asked. We are on the platform waiting for the train to arrive, after sending both Hades and Persephone ahead. "Yes mother/aunt Narcissa." Draco and I answered. "You two grew up too quickly. What happened to the last 11 years?" Uncle idiot complained, quietly and without letting his mask slip. "We knew they weren't gonna stay kids forever." Mama told uncle idiot. It's so sad I can't call him that in public.
"Easy for you to say." Uncle Lucius replied, rolling his eyes, "You get to see both of them everyday. You're their teacher and, no doubt about them getting sorted into Slytherin, you'll also be their head of house." "We're not having this discussion again." mama replied, glaring at uncle Lucius.
"Is that Professor Prince?" "Is that his son?" "He doesn't hate children?" "His son is so cute." The whispers started.
"Looks like that's my cue to leave." mama said. "Bye Harrison, see you at sorting." He said. "Bye dad." I replied. He gave me a smile which I returned before walking off to the apparition point.
We waited for the Hogwarts express, before saying our goodbyes one more time, and boarding. Dray and I found an empty compartment. We chatted until the door opened. "Hey tiny snakes." Fred and George greeted us, entering the compartment. This time around they are in Slytherin, and according to Mama, they fit in and are excelling much better than when they were in Gryffindor.
"Hey Greg, Forge. How have you two been?" Dray greeted them. "I hope you two were causing problems for your problem family." I added, putting my head onto Draco's shoulder and looking up at the demon twins as they sat down.
"Well of-""Course we did.""What do take-" "us for,""amateurs?" They replied. "Of course not. Tell us about what you did." I said, smiling widely. I love the stories about what they do to those three.
They told us about all the magnificent pranks they pulled over the summer until the door opened again. "Harry, Draco, Twins, nice to see you." Blaise said as he and Theo entered, closing the door behind them. Theo sat next to me and Blaise sat next to Fred.
Someone opened the door. "Have any of you seen Harry Potter?!" Ronald asked, sounding angry and annoyed. "Why would we know where The-Boy-Who-Lived is?" I asked, sarcastically. He just grumbled, looked at the twins and mumbled something about 'traitor brothers' and 'slimy snakes', before slamming the door shut.
We all laughed,chatted, and caught up. Talking about what we did since we last saw each other. Eventually the trolly lady came and we all bought some candy. I got a bunch of chocolate frogs."EW! I got Dumbledor!" I complained. Everyone laughed at my face.
*Bam* Someone slammed the door open. We looked up, startled to see Granger. "Have any of you seen a fro- oh, it's you two." She said, glaring at Dray and I as all 6 of us glared back at her. "Do muggles not teach their children how to knock?" Dray said. Granger just ignored him.
"Have any of you seen a toad named Trevor? A kid named Neville lost one." She asked, sounding annoyed. "No, go ask the prefects and stop bothering us." Theo said, giving her a deadpanned look."Have any of you seen a toad named Trevor? A kid named Neville lost one." She asked, sounding annoyed. "No, go ask the prefects and stop bothering us." Theo said, giving her a deadpanned look.
She just stared back then her eyes wandered over to Draco and I, more specifically, out interlocked hands. She made a disgusted face. "Why are you two holding hands?!" She exclaimed, sounding disgusted. Can't say I didn't see that coming.
We all glared at her even harsher. Draco decided to let go of my hand in favor of wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me closer. She looked a bit green at that. "They're godbrothers and have known each other forever. If you have a problem with how they show affection, you can shove it!" Blaise told her.
Granger huffed and slammed the door closed.
~"She is a bitch."~ Loki hissed, poking his head out from my sleeve. ~"LOKI! I told you not to come out until we got to the dorm!"~ I hissed back. ~"I'm hungry. I want food. Are there any rats or toads on this train? I smell one and I heard the screechy girl talking about a toad."~ He hissed back. ~"It's too risky to let you out on the train. You can hunt when we get to the dorms as long as you don't eat the familiars of any Slytherins."~ I replied. He made an annoyed hissed then went back into my sleeve.
"When did-" "You get-""a snake?" The demons asked. "When we went shopping for supplies." I answered. "What did he want?" Dray asked. "He's hungry. I forgot his treats in my trunk so I told him he can hunt once we get to the dorm." I answered. "What's his name?" "What's his species?" The twins asked, intrigued. "His name's Loki and is a black mamba and a green fire snake hybrid." I answered, looking at my sleeve where Loki is curled around my arm.
"Green fire? As in magical fire?" Theo asked. "Yes. Do you know what it is? I haven't found much information on it." I replied. "Green fire is pure magic that can only be cast by those with very dark and magical cores. Even having a familiar that can produce green fire is a sign of a very strong and dark witch or wizard." He explained.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at where Loki is.
When we got off the train we said buy to the demons before going to where Hagrid was calling all us first years to. We found Goyle and Crabbe and waited for boarding to start. "Six to a boat! Six to a boat!" He called All 6 of us, climbed into the boat and settled in before Hagrid pushed us off.
"Are you guys ready?" Crabbe asked. "Of course. We all have already learned most stuff taught in first year." Draco said, again holding my waist. He does that a lot and I like it. I don't know why but I feel like I should remember why.
"Did anyone notice Weasley and the mudblood from earlier looking around for someone?" Theo asked. "Weasley said he was looking for Potter, she probably heard the tales of the great boy-who-lived who defeated You-know-who and was looking for him as well." I answered. Blaise scoffed, "That's pathetic." He said.
We all relaxed until we arrived at Hogwarts after watching and laughing at the few students who fell in and had to be saved by the giant squid. I may or may not have sent a spell at Ronald to cause him to fall in once or five times.
We all got out and gathered in front of the school. "My brothers told me we have to fight a troll." Weasley said. The six of us exchanged looks. How big of an idiot is he. I turned around and was face to face with him. He was talking to Granger, of course they will be friends, they got married last time.
"If you truly believe that you're a bigger idiot than I thought. No slightly competent adult would let children within sight of a troll, let alone fight one. Trolls' thick skin makes them basically immune to spells. I suggest you start studying before you get either yourself or someone else hurt." I said, doing my best to keep a tone that made me sound like I was being thoughtful and just trying to help.
He looked at me pissed. "Are you implying I'm dumb?!" he yelled, face turning red. "Trolls' skin is basic knowledge among pure blood families, it's something you should know." I replied, smiling.
He started yelling but didn't get a few words out before he was interrupted. "MR. WEASLEY! DO NOT TALK TO OTHER STUDENTS LIKE THAT!" Nana Miney yelled as she came out. Weasley looked offended. "THAT SLIMY SNAKE SAID I WAS DUMB!" He yelled, pointing at me. "Is that true Harrison?" she asked. Weasley and a few other students looked shocked she called me by my first name instead of my last.
I looked up at her innocently. "I just told him that we aren't fighting trolls and he should do research on them so he knows what to do if he does encounter one. I was only looking out for his safety." I answered. "That is very kind of you. 10 points to your house and 10 points from your house, Mr. Weasley." Nana Miney said.
"THAT'S A LIE YOU FILTHY SLIMY SNAKE, DEATH EATER SPAWN!" He insulted me. "That's 20 more points from your house, Mr. Weasley. You not only insulted a fellow student based on an assumed house but also just accused one of your professors of being a death eater. Be quiet before you lose more points before the year even starts!" She lectured him, causing him to shut up and go purple in anger.
"Now that that's over. Welcome first year student to Hogwarts, the safest school in the magical world. Here you will be sorted into one of four houses, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Your house will be your family during your time here. All houses have produced great wizards and witches. Follow me to your sorting." She said.
She led us to the great hall and up to the front of the room. She went up, grabbed a scroll and an old hat, the sorting hat. "Now, when I call your name you will come up, I will place the sorting hat on your head, and you will be sorted." She said.
"Abbott, Hannah"
HUFFLEPUFF
"Bones, Susan"
HUFFLEPUFF
"Boot, Terry"
RAVENCLAW
"Brocklehurst, Mandy"
RAVENCLAW
We watched as everyone got sorted. Cabbe, Goyle, Draco, and Theo got sorted into Slytherin, after Pansy was sorted I was called.
"Prince, Harrison."
all non first years minus most Slytherins made shocked noises. I gracefully walked up to the stool. All the professors minus Quirrel, who looked shocked, and Dumb-as-a-door were smiling at me, some more obvious than others. Mama had a proud look on his face which some older students pointed out.
"My my, Harrison Riddle-Prince, You've sat here before. Sent back in time I see. Very cunning, extremely smart, you've already tricked almost every first year that you're kind. You are a perfect mix of both your fathers. I think-"
SLYTHERIN
The Slytherin table exploded into cheers, most of the students who know I'm the dark lord's son jumped up from their seats. Mama smiled at me and also clapped louder than he did for other students. I made my way to the Slytherin table and sat next to Draco. I saw about half the students looking at either me or mama in shock, or disbelief.
"How long do you think it's gonna take for a seventh year to talk to you about being the son of the 'dungeon bat'?" Draco teased. "Tomorrow." I answered, smiling.
We watched everyone else finish getting sorted, finishing with Blaise getting sorted to Slytherin and Weasley joining Gryffindor. "Welcome all new students and all past students. I welcome all of you to a new year of Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I am headmaster Dumbledor-" I zoned out as he started introducing the staff.
"-Before the feast begins I must inform all of you, the third floor corridors and the forbidden forest are forbidden and should not be entered under any circumstances unless you want a painful death." He said. I rolled my eyes and blocked out everything else he said.
The food appeared in front of us. Unlike the Gryffindor food which was more sugary and greasy, this food is healthier.
"Did you guys see their faces when they heard Harrison's last name?" Blaise asked, smiling as he got food. "Yeah, don't know why, I have snuck into the school to interrupt his classes. I used to do it at least 3 times a year." I said. "I remember the first time you did that. Mom carried you in from the floo. You were sobbing and calling out for uncle Sev. What did happen that day?" Dray asked.
"I don't wanna talk about it." I quickly replied. "Oh, now you have to tell." Theo said, putting his book down. I glared at him. all 5 of them were looking at me, waiting.
"Fine." I relented. "It was the first Friday of the first week of Hogwarts after I moved in. I was really upset and missed dad, so I followed after him."
Flashback: After Harrison Followed Severus through the floo
The floo fire stopped and I hid under one of the tables. I saw his feet stop for a few seconds before leaving the room. I got out from under the table and ran behind his table. I found an empty cupboard right behind his chair. I crawled inside and closed the door, doing my best to hold in my laughter.
I stayed there for a while and eventually heard a lot of people enter. I planned to wait for the class to end so I could surprise him.
I listened to the class. This stuff is pretty basic. It's probably either a first or second year class. "Professor, how do I know when the potion is good to take off the fire?" Someone asked.
I giggled at that then stopped. Uh oh. The classroom went silent. "Uh professor, what was that?" someone asked.
There was silence for a few seconds. I heard footsteps come closer. I heard mama start opening cupboards, I held my breath, hoping he wouldn't find me, then he opened the cupboard I was hiding in.
We looked at each other for a few seconds before I smiled nervously and he sighed. "Hi Harrison." He said. "Hi dad." I replied. "DAD?!" The students yelled.
Mama stood up and I crawled out, standing up next to him. "AAAWWWWWWWW." all the female students awed in unison. Students, take your cauldrons off your fire, extinguish the flames, and write a 3 page essay about fire safety for different potions, due next class. Class dismissed, Weasley, go get Professor McGonagall." He instructed.
The students quickly did as they were told. Some making comments about mama having a kid, some mumbling about a random kid showing up, and some commenting on how cute I am. The cute comments coming mostly from the female Gryffindor students.
He crouched down to my eye level. "Harrison, did you follow me to my work?" He asked. I nodded, looking down and folded my hands. He sighed, picked me up, sat in his chair and sat me on his lap.
"Why baby? I thought we both understood you can't be anywhere near the headmaster?" He asked, rubbing my back and pushing my hair out of my face. "I know mama. But I don't like you leaving. I love Aunt Cissa, Uncle Idiot, and Dray, but I love you more." I pouted, feeling tears start to fall down my cheeks.
"I know, baby. I just got you back, but I want to keep you safe. I'll be home for the weekend after work." He replied, Pulling me closer to his chest, cuddling, and rocking me.
A few minutes later an older lady ran into the room. "Severus, what happened?" She asked, not yet noticing me. He sighed. "My son followed me through my floo this morning. I don't know what to do." He admitted.
She looked shocked. "You have a son? Since when?" She asked, finally noticing me. Mama looked at me for a few seconds. "I'm gonna tell you this because I trust you, Minerva. My son, Harrison, was one of the kids of dark wizards who was taken and presumed dead. Over the summer he found his way to Gringotts and after an inheritance test, it was revealed he was my son and was given to muggles who abused him since he started doing accidental magic. I don't know who took him. I want people to think I didn't know about him and his mother is dead while I have a husband who was put into a coma from an attack in the war after our son was taken. No one but the Malfoy's know about my husband. He was a death eater so it needs to stay like that." explained.
She looked at mama in even more shock, and Charlie looked at us with worry. "Oh my. You've been suffering all this time and this poor dear was harmed." She said, concern and horror written all over her face. She ran over and kneeled in front of me.
"You poor poor sweet little thing." She said, I looked at her. "What is your name, little one?" She asked. I looked up at mama who nodded. I looked back at her. "Harrison Prince." I answered. "Hi Harrison, my name is Minerva McGonagall. I am one of your dad's coworkers." She replied. "You said he followed you through your floo. I'm guessing he missed you." She asked mama.
"Yes. Neither of us like being away from each other, it's especially hard on him, but I can't bring him to work, especially with how dangerous many potions are. He's also getting pureblood lessons with Draco from Narcissa. Do you have any suggestions to help him?" Mama asked. "You might want to try binding some of your magic to a stuffed animal. You can spell it to wrap around him when is having bad separation anxiety. You can also get a pair of lockets with a picture of both of you in it plus a charm to connect you two so you can feel each other's magic when you miss each other." She suggested.
"How does that sound, Harrison? Would those sound good?" mama asked me. I smiled and jumped a bit. "What about Mr. Snake?" I asked, excitedly. He laughed softly at that. "Of course." He replied.
"He is adorable. You two really love each other, don't you?" She asked. Mama nodded.
The floo started up. "I'm guessing that's Lucius. Say, you mind holding Harrison and hiding out of view of the floo for a minute?" He asked, smirking. She nodded and took me.
We watched as mama answered the floo. "SEV, WE CAN'T FIND HARRISON! WE LOOKED ALL OVER BOT MANORS 5 TIMES BUT CAN'T FIND HER!" Lucius yelled. "Lucius. Are you telling me it took you an HOUR to notice my son wasn't in either of our homes?!" Mama exclaimed. "Yes." Uncle Lucius answered meekly.
"You are so lucky nothing happened to him. Minerva, please show Lucius how irresponsible he is." He said. She walked into the view of the floo, causing uncle idiot to look relieved then go white.
"Hi uncle idiot. I followed mama. You're in trouble." I said, smiling.
He looked terrified then his shoulders slumped. "I'll send Narcissa to get him." He said before the floo went out.
"He hasn't changed a day, has he?" She asked. "No." Mama answered. He took me back into his arms. "Now, you have to say bye to Minerva." He said.
"Can she visit?" I asked. "If your dad, or as you said mama, allows it, sure, and you can call me Nana Miney." Nana Miney said. "Of course she can." Mama said. "Bye nana Miney." I said.
Back to present
"And after Aunt Cissa came I sobbed that I wasn't able to hang out with dad and Nana Miney." I finished explaining. "I honestly didn't expect that." Goyle said. "Yeah yeah, whatever. Now she and basically every member of staff knows me and adores me." I said, smiling sweetly.
"What are you all talking about?" Mama asked, from behind me.
"They just asked about the first time I followed you and snuck into Hogwarts." I answered. Mama sighed and shook his head.
I'm tired had a fun day at construction camp so skip to dorm room
"Looks like we share a room Dray." I said, smiling. I looked to see Dray smiling very widely. 2 per dorm, this is perfect. "I think this year will be fun and relaxing." Dray replied.
We both went in. our beds were on opposite sides of the room. It basically looks like a combination of both our rooms at home. We both chose our bed and unpacked.
~"Can I go hunt now?"~ Loki hissed. I nodded, he hissed happily and quickly slithered off.
We got ready for bed, said good night to each other and went to bed, and closed our curtains.
I put Mr. Snake and my dad's diary next to me, feeling their magic surround me, soothing me and luring me to sleep.
