Revenge

The war had taken a toll on Hogwarts is all he could think, in a distant memory he remembers the magnificent castle hosting young children full of hope, young witches and wizards running around the halls knowing full well that they were safe inside walls made of layers upon layers of ancient magic.

In a distant memory he remembers ruins, nothing but bricks scattered on top of a hill, the moon light revealing the red soil that hadn’t yet lost its color, he remembers Hogwarts crying in melancholy upon the fates of her children. 

He remembers explosions, the sky full of smoke, a barren land, a dried lake, thousands of dead creatures and James and Teddy and so many kids. He remembers James and Death.

“So schon”

Harry snapped out of gaze and looked to his, so many children, such untrained magic, such untainted minds. 

Harry could guess what these children were thinking, “I wonder how the sorting works”, “I hope I get sorted into - house” “What if I really do need to fight a troll?” so on and so forth, such mundane worries, such cute children.

“It really is beautiful,” Harry said, leaning towards Angel.

“I wonder if I really would have to sacrifice my blood to gain entry.” 

Okay maybe not too innocent, but then again, every child is different.

“I am pretty sure you don’t have to do that.” Harry said patting Angel on the back, she looked like she didn’t completely trust his words but he felt her muscles relaxing under his touch.

“The sky’s pretty today, you can see the stars so clearly from here.”

Harry looked up and she was right, there were no clouds in the sky and every constellation could be seen clearly.

 Harry’s eyes took notice of Orion, the hunter that thought that the entire world should bow to his power, he was left as a mere image, immortalized by a suitor. He was pointing Towards Sirius, the brightest star in the chart, as if declaring that he was going to take that light for himself.

But that was never going to happen because Sirius stood alone, he had enough light to rival the entire constellation.

“Harrison, we have to get off.” before he knew angel was dragging him through the hall, familiar hallways, stairs made of gold, pillars that support the magical world.

He felt the magic sing to him, welcoming him home, such strong magic, so real, so lively, as if the founders have made this building by squeezing every bit of their soul.

“Also, if you haven’t noticed, little Harry is following us.” 

“Little who?”

“Little Harry, honestly, and you were saying I’m out of it.”

Harry gave her an apologetic smile and looked behind her, sure enough there was a young Harry Potter following him, upon being discovered he flinched and lowered his head as if guilty.

“How cute~” Angel crooned.

“What is it Heir Potter?” Other Harry looked a bit hurt and lowered his head even further, Harry felt like he had just bullied a little kid, a very cute and obedient little kid at that.

“I- I wanted to talk to you…” he said while fiddling with his fingers.

“I see, what is it?”

He looked even more miserable than before and Harry had no idea what he did, Angel just clicked her tongue and pushed Harry out of the way.

“What is it, little cutie? Did you want to be friends with us?” 

Other Harry slowly turned red as a cherry tomato but nodded slowly, “Good, good! You can call me adorable or Angel, whatever you prefer, this here is Harrison, you can just call him Harrison, Harry would be confusing.”

Other Harry nodded and they had to quicken their pace to reach the rest of the group, it seems like the deputy Headmaster had not yet begun speaking, good.

“Welcome to Hogwarts children” He said, “I am Professor Armando Dippet, I will be your defense professor this year.” 

“Now remember, once you step through this door you will be sorted into a house most suited for you. While you stay here your house will be like your family and your teachers like your parents. You are expected to try your best to achieve your goals and come to your teachers whenever you encounter something you can’t handle. Are we clear?” 

Harry nodded reflexively, everyone followed Dipped inside the Great hall and all the kids around Harry let out gasps of admiration, Harry turned his head to see Angel who looked impressed and Other Harry who was practically star struck. His parental instincts were probably kicking in since he found them so cute, like little chicks.

Harry repressed the urge to pinch their cheeks and instead focused on absorbing the magic in his surroundings, even if the hall was filled to the brim with kids, Harry didn’t feel nauseous at all. Hogwarts was probably soothing everyone’s magic, there was a reason why accidental magic almost never happened while on the campus grounds.

“Malfoy Septimus” was what made Harry flinch.

Blonde hair, overly priced robes, clearly a drama queen. He is definitely a Malfoy.

Septimus Malfoy walked to the podium and for a moment Harry felt like their eyes met, and he was right since Malfoy senior pro max gazed at him from top to bottom, and then gave him a wink.

Yes, a wink.

Wink 

DRACO BLOODY COCK SUCKING MALFOY’S BLOODY GREAT GRANDFATHER JUST BLOODY WINKED AT HIM!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

“Slytherin!” The hall erupted into applause and Bloody Malfoy senior pro max walked to the Slytherin table but not before giving Harry a final smirk.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

What is up with this Rapunzel looking 11 years old?!?!!?!?!!?!?!?!? Why is he eye flirting with me??!?!!?!?!?!?!?

“You okay?” Angel nudged him and Harry gave a smile

“Yeah, I just witnessed a rather disturbing scene…” Harry let out a broken chuckle and Angel was just looking confused.

Soon after it was Other Harry’s turn to be sorted and he unexpectedly got into Gryffindor, Harry could’ve sworn he would go be sorted into Hufflepuff.

“Aww I thought he would go to Hufflepuff seeing how cute he is” It seems like Angel was thinking the same as him.

Soon it was her turn, “Vogel Angelina '' Harry noticed her scrunching her nose upon hearing the name but she didn’t say anything, As expected she was sorted into slytherin.

Harry turned his head to see other Harry looking very much betrayed as he lowered his head and slowly started filling his mouth with cookies. Boy was he adorable. He made eye contact with Harry and he gave him a reassuring smile, as if resurrected from the dead he started smiling once again.

Harry just wanted to pinch his cheeks.

“Peverell Harrison”

Unlike what Harry thought the Hall didn’t go completely silent, well it’s not like many of them even knew what the Peverell family was, To his credit at least it was a lot quieter than before.

The Hat didn’t really say anything to him, as if possessed it just stayed silent then after exactly 30 seconds had passed. “Slytherin!” 

Harry walked to the Slytherin and sat beside Angel who was busy inhaling jello, orange jello to be exact.

“So Angelina, huh?”

Angel gave him a “are you serious right now” look and inhaled the rest of the jello. 

“People who are close to me don’t call me that.” She gave him a stern look.

"Angel it is then" 

She curled into a smile once again and she pointed towards the Gryffindor table. "Also Little Harry is about to cry." 

Other Harry who had been soothed by Harry before was looking like he was betrayed and left alone in a desert once again.

His eyes that held the question 'why did you leave me?' made Harry feel extremely guilty.

"Aww poor cutie, should we just kidnap him and proclaim him a Slytherin?"

"Not sure if we can do that." Can they?

"Kumpel, there isn't a thing in this world we can't do with the power of friendship."

Fair enough, Harry did defeat the most powerful Dark Lord of a century with the power of love and friendship.

Which sounds so stupid in retrospect.

In the end Harry's rationality suppressed his desire to commit a crime and he convinced Angel not to go through with her stupid idea.

Instead Angel decided that giving other Harry a flying kiss will make him feel better which resulted in other Harry becoming a cherry statue for the rest of the evening.

Harry, who was able to bask in the beautiful magic of Hogwarts while watching a good teen drama, was perfectly fine with this development.

He was also able to ignore Malfoy senior pro Max's attempts at conversing with him. The evening was perfect.

"Oya? Isn't this my cute little junior?" 

Angel was looking at senior MacDonald as if he was a suspicious individual, which he was, while blocking Harry from his view.

"And who might you be?" She asked while slowly backing away along with Harry 

"Loy MacDonald, fifth year Slytherin prefect!" MacDonald said, looking not even a bit offended by her.

"And how am I supposed to trust you on that?" She said, still looking vigilant.

Harry was about to stop her when he noticed how relaxed she was, then he realized this child was messing with MacDonald.

"Well now that I think about it, how DO we know that you are not deceiving us?"

MacDonald looked a bit taken aback as he looked at Harry with a betrayed expression, "That I-"

After that after three minutes of back and forth, another prefect came to dissuade the situation.

"Alright MacDonald!" She said smacking him on the back of his head. "They are obviously messing with you. We are getting late, get going!"

MacDonald who had been toyed with didn't reprimand Harry and Angel at all, he just laughed along with them and then led them to the Dungeons.

All the prefects were already waiting for them in the common room and many of them scolded MacDonald for being late. Harry kind of felt guilty so he took a look at Angel to see if she was willing to apologize. Nope. In fact she was very much enjoying his misery.

The Seventh year Prefect, Black, came forward to speak. "There are three rules you must follow while a part of house Slytherin." He says

"Rule number one, don't miss classes, if you do want to miss classes make sure to at least attend three classes of the particular subject before doing so. And come up with a good excuse as to not lose house points "

"Rule number two, you are supposed to help a fellow housemate in need on the castle ground, no matter what they do. If they commit murder, you help them hide the body. If they commit Arson, you help the flames grow. If they commit assault, you cut their dicks off, or Tits."

"Rule number three, If you do something bad you don't get caught, if you do get caught you either silence the witness. Or you obliviate them. In case you are too cowardly, just run while shouting 'Damn it weasley! I knew it was a bad idea.'"

"Are we clear?"

For a moment everyone stared at Black like he was a Psychopath, which he was, that was until Black cleared his throat when everyone agreed to follow the rules in unison.

Angel became roommates with Nenda Kaushik. While Harry ended up staying with Alexander Avery. Harry could only thank the Goddess of luck that he wasn't forced to room with Malfoy senior pro max for the rest of his time at Hogwarts.

ತit was stuffy in there!ತ

As soon as Harry opened his suitcase to unpack, a certain snake jumped out not caring about his surroundings at all.

"..."

"..."

ತMaster?ತ

ತAvery, I know this looks bad but I can explain this.ತ

"..."

"..."

ತWhatever if you're gonna keep ignoring me, I'll just talk to the bird!ತ

"..."
