A/N: Reviews
Meechypoo- I'm glad that you love the story so much that you were debating on giving my 15 different reviews for an early release. Unfortunately this will not be a Snarry. They may become friends but nothing closer than that.

Delia- There is a reason behind Harry apologizing before Snape can even say a word. He apologizes to basically make Snape feel like shit. As for the whole Albus situation...it will be reveal itself in time.

Rachel- Glad you like it (:

Bird-Harry does reveal why he is interested in both subjects a little later, you will also see Snape's reaction later too.

Kat & Cullengal- Glad to see repeat reviewers. That must mean I am doing something right.

As always to my wonderful reviewers, I enjoy answering questions and any other comments that you may have.
ON WITH THE STORY!
As the next two weeks passed, Healer Cole announced that the operation was a success. Harry was slowly getting the mobility back in his lower half. Harry was still stuck in the hospital wing when no one was with him. They were worried about him falling and injuring himself even more. He was going mad at this point, he wanted to walk around the grounds, visit Hagrid, do something other than just sit here and count the tiles, of which there were 456 and there were over 60 cracks along them. He knew that if he didn't get out of the infirmary soon he would start naming them all.
Over the next week Harry was getting used to his exercises and was now able to walk down the stairs to join everyone in the Great Hall for meals. He never traveled far from the castle, just out to the courtyard enough to enjoy the sunshine. On the days that he was able to go outside, he would lay in the sun for a few hours then make his way back to the hall for dinner only to be half carried back up to the infirmary by Remus. He smiled as he laid in his bed looking at the remainder of his watch, "Just 10 minutes until your birthday Harry." He sat up and looked out the window behind his bed, enjoying the view of the grounds under the half moon. He sat watching the trees sway in the breeze enjoying the night.
He laid his head on his knees as his watch beeped the midnight hour. He took a deep breath 'Happy birthday" He sighed and made his way to lay back down on his bed when his back erupted in what felt like fire burning through his flesh. He cried out as his legs and arms felt like they were broken by his uncle again. He curled in on himself as his body reshaped itself. Madame Pomfrey had come running out of her office to see what was happening and saw Harry writhing in pain. She was unsure of what to do. He had just turned 17 and was sure that this was just the manifestation that it chose for him. She hurried to her office and flooed Albus and Remus to hurry to the infirmary and that Harry was going through his inheritance.
When Remus made it to the infirmary Harry was curled in a ball next to his bed, whimpering in pain. Remus gently picked up Harry and noticed that he was a lot taller than he used to be. Harry before was maybe 5'7" and now he was pushing six foot. As Remus tucked him into the bed he began to wonder what could have caused Harry to have a growth spurt like he did during his inheritance. The man was worried for his pup. He grabbed the chair that sat close by, pulling it over to right next to the bed and grabbed Harry's hand to reassure not only himself but the young man in the bed that there was someone there for him.
Dumbledore made his way into the infirmary several minutes later stopping at the foot of Harry' bed. He looked over the young man and his breath caught in his throat, Harry had changed dramatically, "Remus, how is he?"
Remus never took his eyes from Harry and sighed, "I don't know. He was in a lot of pain and now he seems to have calmed a bit. I don't remember James's inheritance or even Lily's for that matter causing this much pain. Normally it only happens if you have creature blood, but James didn't and Lily was muggleborn."
Dumbledore nodded as he ran a hand through his beard in thought, "The Potters do have creature blood but it hasn't manifested since the school was created." He held up a hand, "I will explain everything when Harry wakes, not before. It is a long history and I don't want to repeat it more than once." He looked over at Harry again, "When morning comes I will leave and go to get Harry some different clothes. Nothing he has will fit him now. Don't worry they will be simple and not as extravagant as my own wardrobe." He smiled at Remus and started walking out the door muttering to himself, "I fear the youth of today will never understand the fashion sense of wizards as it once was." He continued muttering under his breath all the way back to his office.
As morning came Remus was lightly dozing in the chair still holding onto Harry's hand. Madame Pomfrey made her way down the ward and stopped to check on Harry. She ran several diagnostic scans over him and was surprised to see that his spinal cord was healed far better than it had in the past couple weeks. She was happy that with his inheritance his body was healed far better than she could have hoped. It seems that with the massive influx of his magic, the healing that was going to take several months to almost a year was jumped up to the point where he was just a few months away from a full recovery. She left the bed to go and let the others know of his recovery, he would still have to take it slowly instead of racing around trying to save the world or fighting dragons.
His eyes blinked open as he looked over at Remus asleep in the chair, "Remmy." He gently squeezed the werewolf's hand trying to wake him without frightening him.
Remus started as he looked over at Harry, "Hey pup." He sat up straight, rubbing his eyes, "How are you?"
Harry shrugged as he rolled over onto his side facing Remus, "Like I've been run over by a heard of thestrals, and I could really use the loo."
Chuckling Remus stood, "Well come on and stand up, I'll help you over to the loo if you need it."
Harry nodded, used to being careful with his movements so as not to jar his back. He stood and looked over at Remus, who he was now eye to eye with him, with an expression of shock and curiosity across his face, "What...What happened?"
Remus took a deep breath, "You went through your inheritance or majority when you turned seventeen. I would say that it is more of an inheritance, because you have creature blood in your family. Some changes have occurred physically, I am not sure what has changed to your magic levels."
Harry nodded slightly and made his way to the bathroom. He quickly took care of his business and turned to the sink to wash his hands. He looked up in the mirror and gasped, "What the?" He turned his face too look at his reflection. His hair that was black with liberal silver streaks throughout and stopped between his shoulder blades. His ears were slightly longer and pointed, sticking out from behind his hair, "Great now I look like a freak too." He pulled off his shirt and looked at his chest staring at the scars that had become part of his everyday life. The word that his uncle so lovingly carved into his chest was still there albeit less defined against his slightly tanned skin. He slipped his shirt back on after staring at the body that would never be free of his family's attempts to remove the magic from his body. His eyes caught his own in the mirror and startled himself. He was able to see without his own glasses, his eyes were still the same deep green they always were, but now there were amber flakes in the iris's now. He took a deep breath,

Bloody hell."
He left the bathroom and turned to look at Remus, "What the hell am I? I'm not even human now. Harry bloody Potter does it again and changes species and is now something to be stared at by the wizarding world. Another reason for the papers to have a go at me." He sighed and made his way over to the bed with ease, "The only good thing about this is how my back is healed." He sat down on the bed and put his head in his hands, "God Remus, I can't even have normal life can I?"
Remus took a deep breath and knelt in front of Harry, "Pup, I have no idea what you are now, only Albus can tell us." He took Harry's hand in his, "As for normal, I think it is overrated. No one ever really wants to be normal. It's what people who are different from the average want. I wanted to be normal until Sirius made me see that I was trying to be something I already was. Even though I have lycanthropy, I am my own version of normal. At least that is what Sirius said." He chuckled and looked into Harry's eyes, "Everyone has their own normalcy, but it is up to us to decide what it is and how we feel about it. If normal for you is wanting to be a potions master and get your mastery in transfiguration, then that is your normal. Your appearance has nothing to do with it. Sure there are changes that you have to face with the way you look, but you will always have to deal with that."
Harry nodded and gave Remus a bone crushing hug, "Thanks Remmy."
Remus smiled and stood as Harry let him go, "Now just because you know what you want to do and advance your schooling in certain areas, I still think that until we get rid of Voldemort that you should focus on defense as well." He held a hand up, effectively stopping any of Harry's protests, "I know you dislike the subject, but it also comes easy to you and it will be necessary for you to build on the knowledge that you already have. I will speak to Albus about allowing you to take your NEWTs early and having independent study in the three subjects. I am sure that Severus, Minerva, and I will be willing to help you with those. We could have the tests administered before the end of summer holidays and swear the proctors to silence so no one will know that you have passed your NEWTs."
Harry nodded and laid back on the bed, his brain working fast over the idea that if he could ever pass all his NEWTs, he would be that much closer to getting his mastery and even closer to ridding the world of Tom Riddle once and for all. He looked over at Remus, "I'm going to take a nap then we will go and talk to Dumbledore."
Remus nodded and took out a book as he sat back down in what he had been calling his chair.
Harry woke several hours later with a stretch, and blinking his eyes open. He saw that not only was Remus sitting there but Dumbledore, Snape, and McGonagall were all standing off to the side talking amongst themselves. Harry sat up an arched an eyebrow at Remus as if to say, 'What are they going on about?'
Remus chuckled and looked over at the others, "They are trying to figure out what to do about you wanting to take your NEWTs early. They think that it is a bad idea that you would bring Voldemort here faster than you are ready to face him."
Harry sighed and looked back at the three that were arguing before shaking his head and sliding out of the bed. He grabbed one of the robes that was draped over the chair and slipped it on, without looking over at the others he motioned for Remus to follow him as he made his way out of the infirmary. He had made it halfway across the hall before the once quite argument became loud yelling and sneers between the three of them. Harry covered his ears wincing as he left the room, "They were loud before and now they are causing a ruckus." They walked for a short while until they were at the astronomy tower.
Remus conjured a pair of comfortable chairs and took a seat in one of them, "Come on Harry have a seat and we will watch the sun set, maybe I can convince you to tell me why you are interested in potions and transfiguration."
