Pairing: Yaoi M/M, Harem – top Harry x bottoms Draco / Tom (TMR) / Cedric
Last Time:
‘perhaps a ride on my back will clear your mind little hatchling’ Gloria offered, soon after Brian and Harry were riding on the back of the large intimidating crocodile upstream and enjoying the very different environment Australia has compared to the UK …
XXXXXXXXXX
“which clothes do you want?” Brian asked the little boy gently. After the child shyly pointed to the clothes he wanted the headmaster dressed his son in the clothes, which were blue overalls, a red t-shirt and little red tennis shoes “now there’s nothing to be afraid of … we’re just going for an hour or so depending on how long the tests take”
Green eyes looked up at him pleadingly without glasses to obscure them “can I take Mickey with me?”
Brian smiled and nodded “of course you can, but there’s still time. We don’t have to be at Gringotts until after lunch so there’s no rush”
“ok … can we … can we play animals until then?” the boy asked shyly.
“of course” Brian pulled out the chest of figurines all of which came to life and began moving near the boy or to each other “now what is .. this one?” Brian asked and pointed to the figure of a unicorn.
“unicorn” the little boy’s eyes glittered happily as they continued the game for a few hours. After learning several new animals they heard the floo from the living room flare to life.
“it’s alright, it’s only Aster” Brian said as he felt the little boy jump in fear at the sudden noise “lets go say hi” the headmaster smiled as his son eagerly put his figures away and grabbed Mickey. It was one meal away before he and his son go to get the adoption potion.
Aster came into the kitchen with a big smile and saw Harry with Mickey in Brian’s arms “not much longer now. Are you excited Harry?”
The shy child cuddled into Mickey as he nodded “yes, but I’m not Harry now” he said softly.
The white haired healer beamed as Harry was set down so Brian could cook “really? What name did you pick sweetheart?”
“Julian River White” the green eyes glittered with happiness and for the first time looked Aster in the eyes before quickly hiding his face shyly. Brian smiled at his son’s actions. Little by little Julian was coming out of his shell.
“awww it’s perfect Julian. How did you pick your middle name?” Aster asked as she took a seat at the table near Julian, but not too close since the little boy still seemed shy around her.
“Gloria helped me decide” Julian answered softly.
“you saw Gloria …” Aster said more to Brian who set out some of his mini homemade pizzas. She liked Gloria, but the crocodile isn’t someone you have meet without advanced warning even for full grown adults who claim to be tough.
Brian chuckled, but there was a subtle hint of fear in his tone as the eyes of the over protective healer looked at him “Julian got along really well with Gloria” the headmaster set a couple pizzas on Julian’s plate “eat what you can- oh! How about you take this first along with your medicines”
The little boy pouted as he was handed a potion. It was the nice potion that made him calm down, but it still tasted bad. Despite the taste Julian drank each one and happily ate the little pizzas as Mickey sat on the seat next to him with a wagging tail. After the three had a nice lunch they got ready to go.
“all set Julian- whoops! One sec!” Brian exclaimed in amusement as he got a napkin and wiped away a smudge of sauce from the boy’s cheek “ok, now we’re ready” he said he scooped Julian and Mickey up into his arms. As Brian followed Aster to the living room where the fireplace was Julian made the tiniest sound of worry “it’s ok Julian. Floo travel just looks scary. Close your eyes and you’ll understand” Brian smiled as his son buried his face into his chest without any hesitation. The headmaster and the healer stood in the fireplace. Aster grabbed some floo powder since Brian’s arms were full with Julian …
A moment after he heard Aster say ‘UK Gringotts’ Julian felt a sudden rush of warmth, but then nothing except the sounds of a very different place. Feeling brave … or the effects of the calming potion … Julian peeked out and gasped in awe at the building they were in. It was amazing! The creatures running around or working at the counters were the goblins his Daddy mentioned and weren’t as scary as he expected.
One goblin walked over to them “Brian White for the adoption potion and exams, correct?”
“yes and this is my son who goes by Julian now and my friend Aster” Brian introduced as they followed the goblin to a beautiful private room with a set of plush blue chairs around a pedestal and a coffee table.
“I am Ironclaw. I will be acting as a witness so once the potion master, Severus Snape, the goblin Griphook who handled your case thus far and the head of our bank, Ragnuk, all arrive we can start. Refreshments or snacks?” the goblin offered as some drinks and little cakes and cookies appeared on the table. Brian chuckled as Julian shyly took a cookie and said thank you …
A little while later Ragnuk arrived. All that was left was the potion master …
XXXXXXXXXX
Severus inspected the vial of purple liquid and nodded in approval. With the potion placed into a brown potions bag he was ready to leave. With one quick floo he was in Gringotts …
“perfect timing as always Severus” said Griphook as he came over to the tall potion master.
“indeed … I was wondering if I could sit in on the exams this time“ Severus said though he knew it was usually allowed.
Griphook sent Severus a strange look before gesturing for the wizard to follow “I’m glad you want to because we arranged everything for you to be there”
That comment caught Severus completely off guard. Why would his presence be needed there? Sure the potion masters are allowed to sit in, but to have his presence arranged. Did he know the person adopting the child? That would explain why he would be wanted there, but who did he know who is adopting … no one and he knew no children being adopted. So suffice to say he was curious to see what was going on. After what seemed like a very long walk through twisting hallways they stood in front of a door he knew was the exam room …
Once the door opened he instantly took account of Ragnuk and Ironclaw’s expectant glances. The other people he saw was an unfamiliar white haired young woman with violet eyes and an unfamiliar blonde man with blue eyes … oddly he didn’t recognize anyone so why did the goblins look ready for an explosion …
Bark! Severus’s eyes locked on an animated plush wolf in the arms of the small boy curled up in the blonde man’s arms. At first he didn’t see the tiny child, but now that he did he noticed something.
The large goblin nodded “now that Severus Snape is here with the potion we can start” Ragnuk said. The child shyly peeked up at the potion master with the most dazzling green eyes … it was Harry Potter! The scar was gone, but there was no mistaking those eyes. Severus was frozen in place. Why the hell was Harry, Lily’s son, being adopted? Albus said he was being spoiled rotten by loving guardians in an unknown place. This can’t be happening … but then again … the goblins wouldn’t have allowed any trickery in an adoption so what’s going on?
Ironclaw internally sighed in relief as Severus finally sat down “ok Julian, hop up on the pedestal and we’ll start. This won’t hurt at all and if you want you can hold your toy”
Brian carried Julian to the pedestal and set him on since the boy was too small to hop up by himself. Once Brian sat down in the chair closest to the pedestal the runes Julian was sitting on started glowing “it’s ok Julian, the runes are only scanning you. It will be over in a minute. See, Mickey isn’t worried” the headmaster said softly when the boy whimpered fearfully despite the plush wolf cuddling with him.
Severus frowned in concern at the boy’s reaction, which the witch noticed and explained “Julian suffered greatly for bouts of accidental magic because his other guardians hated magic. It took him nearly two weeks two warm up to the animated toys … I’m sorry, my name is Aster and that man is Brian White, Julian’s father” she said quietly so Julian couldn’t hear and smiled at Severus who simply nodded in greeting.
Lily’s child was abused? Severus didn’t show it, but he was horrified and beyond furious at this news. Harry was supposed to be loved not hurt in anyway, but according to the several black trimmed papers that appeared on the coffee table with the results from the pedestal scans the abuse was severe. Page after page of broken bones, sores, gaping wounds, starvation, burns and even more. The list was endless and the boy was barely four years old! Severus barely managed to keep from being sick by the time he finished it. The only comfort he found was that the three red trimmed papers at the bottom of the pile dictating everything post adoption proved that Harry- … no, Julian, was being cared for with love now.
“I see his eyesight was fixed and a large number of scars were removed” Severus said with approval. The goblins noticed that some treatment began just before the adoption, but considering the severe circumstances they decided to fudge a few things and not ask questions. Severus, however, decided to ask why Julian’s bone rebreaking took place in Australia before the guardians signed over custody in a more private setting … and more importantly, he wanted the names of the people who abused Julian.
Aster nodded “yes, our local potion masters took care of everything and even made some nutrient potions to help him regain a healthy weight”
“indeed … however I see there is one issue that should be resolved” Severus said as he spotted something on the red trimmed paper. Brian immediately glanced at him in concern without moving away from the little boy, which was exactly what Severus wanted to see “it seems Mickey is in dire need of some stuffing” the toy barked as if offended and Julian giggled. Brian and Aster laughed at the entry Severus pointed out. It seems Mickey was scanned too …
“one more little test and we’ll be done Julian” Griphook said as he and Ironclaw changed the settings on the sides of the pedestal. The ruins started glowing again, but the one piece of paper that appeared made the goblins growl.
Ragnuk hissed something in goblin speak and Ironclaw zipped out of the room “I’m sorry, but this soul scan, though not truly necessary, can’t be done because someone has sealed off a large chunk of little Julian’s magic meaning the runes can’t see passed the bindings. I told Ironclaw to inform your local Gringotts” he said seriously. The humans looked furious save for Julian who didn’t fully understand what that means “normally I would have this fixed immediately, but despite Julian’s recovery so far he isn’t strong enough for us to remove the bindings”
“so what do you propose?” Brian asked seriously as he picked up his son protectively.
The head goblin sneered “the results of this test change nothing. Your Gringotts in Australia can handle the binding removal once Julian is healthy enough and they can try the soul scan again. For now we can finish the adoption process”
Griphook laid out a parchment “full name?” he asked the little boy who didn’t seem scared of him even though the runes scared him.
“Julian River White” the little boy said shyly.
Brian smiled at his son before looking at the goblins “will his name change his inheritance from his parents?”
“no, all vaults for the Potter family are locked by blood. You won’t be able to open them even though you’re his father except for the two vaults that are meant for his care, but he will always have them even without Potter in his name. He could call himself Nuggets King of the Hippogriffs, but it won’t change his blood. Of course he won’t get full access until he is of age. Now who is to be his new godmother and godfather?” Griphook asked.
“Aster is to be his godmother” the healer’s eyes widened in happiness at the surprise and she tearfully signed the spot for the godmother and provided a drop of blood. Brian then thought a moment about who Julian’s godfather should be. He knew many people who could be trusted with the boy’s care should something happen, but there was something about Severus Snape that made him wonder. Brian was always one to trust his instincts and he felt that the potion master would ferociously protect Julian no matter what “and his godfather is, if he has no problem with it, Severus Snape”
Severus was startled by that decision. Yes, he knew Julian’s mother and was her friend, but he had only just met the man. Despite the oddness with this situation he wasn’t going to give up a chance to be a part of Julian’s life so he took the offered quill and signed as instructed along with a drop of blood.
“very good, now you can give Julian the potion and we will share this information with your Gringotts. Everything belonging to Julian, which has not been touched, will be transferred accordingly. May your gold ever grow” Griphook said before leaving the room.
As Severus opened the potions case to get the potion Ragnuk commented “even though you aren’t an employ you do offer your services to us. If any of our other branches need your services you are allowed to leave even internationally. Just thought you should know. May your gold ever grow” he said before leaving as well.
The potion master snorted in amusement. The goblins thought of everything. He shook his head and handed Brian the vial “one drop of your blood needs to be added and then Julian can drink it” he explained secretly hoping those green eyes don’t change.
Brian did as told. With a prick of a finger a small red drop of blood fell into the potion and it was handed to the little boy. Julian smiled eagerly as his tiny hands took the vial carefully. After taking a deep breath to prepare for the nasty taste he drank every drop. For a second nothing obvious happened, but then Julian’s messy hair unraveled into soft waves and slowly turned the same blonde as Brian’s hair except with subtle red streaks. It seemed the major Potter trait was removed, but those eyes remained the same pretty green color. Severus was pleased to say the least.
“thank … you” Julian said to Severus through a little yawn.
“you’re welcome Julian” Severus said as the child fell fast asleep in his father’s arms “that potion would take a lot out of anyone. He will be asleep for a few hours as his body adjusts” he said as he followed Aster and Brian out of the room and down the halls. The plush toy fell silent so as not to disturb the little boy.
Aster smiled “we should let him sleep then. Thank you Brian, it’s an honor to be his godmother”
“I could think of no one better … just don’t tell the twins I said that” Brian said jokingly. Aster chuckled as she stepped into and flooed back to her own home “if you want to talk you can floo with me. Call me Brian. May I call you Severus?”
“yes and I will take you up on that offer” Severus said sternly. He needed to know exactly what was going on so he stepped into the floo with Brian and Julian. When the classic flames died down he saw that his was in the living room of a tree house like building in the middle of a forest. Brian went to put Julian to bed as Severus sat at the dining room table in the kitchen section. When Brian returned he finally asked the question he wanted answered “what happened to Julian?”
Brian chuckled humorlessly as he heated some water for some tea “that’s a long story and may involve some minor illegal activities like smuggling. Would you like a cup of tea?” Severus nodded and Brian set out two cups of tea before starting his explanation “I have very good instincts. I was labeled a semi-seer as a child because I always had a good feeling about situations and people’s character. After becoming the headmaster of Legerdemain Academy of Sorcery here in Australia I started traveling over the vacation times. This year I decided to try the UK, which sucked, no offense” Severus shrugged it off, he didn’t care “with magical Britain leaving much to be desired I went into muggle world … that’s when I felt a strand of magic from someone who was dying”
“dying?” Severus gasped, his usually calm mask shattered. Did the child he vowed to protect really come so close to death when he was brewing a potion or drinking a shot of whiskey? Guilt hit the potion master like a lightening bolt …
“yes … Julian very nearly died. When I found the source of the magic I witnessed his muggle guardian kicking the young boy across the room … I stepped in right then and got Julian to Aster immediately … he would not have lived passed that night if I wasn’t there” Brian said before sipping his tea.
The potion master said nothing for a while and just contemplated how incredibly lucky it was that Julian was still in this world “who was his guardian?”
“technically the family of three muggles who ‘took care of’ Julian weren’t the only ones to involved. In fact, a wizard was paying them and a squib to make Julian ‘humble’ through verbal and physical abuse” the normally calm blue eyes of the headmaster turned cold and harsh as he looked at Severus Snape “what is your connection with Julian’s aunt, Petunia Dursley, and Albus Dumbledore?”
XXXXXXXXXX
Albus smiled as he saw Severus Snape enter his office at Hogwarts “Severus my boy where have you been? I have been trying to track you down all day”
If Dumbledore could read Severus’s thoughts he would be ducking for cover and fleeing for his life. Furious didn’t even begin to describe how Severus felt right now. Brian told him everything. How Petunia, the one person Harry Potter should never have been allowed near, somehow got custody of him. How the Dursleys were being paid to hurt him and were ordered to by Dumbledore. How some squib was being paid to watch Harry and keep him in the dark about magic. Yes, he knew it all and Brian even let the potion master use Legilimens to see inside the Australian headmaster’s mind so he knew it was true.
On that point, Dumbledore never let Severus see into his mind or even a memory in a pensieve so that already made Brian far more trustworthy …
The thought of slashing the old wizard’s throat open with the sharp letter opener on the desk was very tempting, but the potion master refrained. Brian and Severus had a long talk and both were in agreement. No one must know about Harry being adopted and becoming Julian. The little boy was in no condition to put up with anything the UK or Dumbledore will do and Julian shouldn’t have to. It wasn’t anybody’s business. Severus agreed to make sure Ms. Figg and the Dursleys keep up as usual so no one knows a thing. When the time comes for people to be waiting to see Harry Potter at Hogwarts Julian River White will be revealed. Even now no one can do anything, but by then Julian will be old enough to understand and healthy enough to put up with the inevitable tantrum … not that Severus or Brian will allow anyone to try anything …
Also once everything comes out Severus will deal with Figg and the Dursleys in a way befitting a former Death Eater. He won’t get caught though, he will be there to see Julian grow up …
“sorry Albus. I was brewing and then I was needed at Gringotts to assist with an adoption. I didn’t get your owl until a moment ago. What do you need?” Severus asked getting the feeling the old wizard was mad that he wasn’t at his beck and call.
“very well” Albus said with a twinkle in his eyes though the potion master knew he didn’t care “Harry’s guardian informed me that there was a little incident with his accidental magic and they need some memory wiping potions and loyalty potions”
A dark brow raised “loyalty too?”
“yes, it seems Harry is quite the spoiled prankster like his father and we need to keep some of the muggles near him in line if we want to protect him” Albus said putting a little more emphasis on the word ‘protection’ so Severus would feel obligated to help Lily’s son.
Severus scowled “the brat is becoming his father. I look forward to seeing him in detention one day” Dumbledore chuckled as Severus turned to leave “I will get that started, good day Albus”
Once he exited his floo at home Severus did decide to brew, but it wasn’t what Albus wanted. He was going to first experiment with some things to invent a painful potion just for the people he will get rid of in a few years. As he watched the potion bubble he felt grateful again for Brian’s intervention. There was no doubt in his mind that the loyalty potions wasn’t for muggles … he would bet his potions lab that, if Harry was still alive a the time, Albus wanted it for Harry.
Little did the old fool know Harry Potter didn’t exist anymore …
XXXXXXXXXX
Mickey bolted upright in the middle of the night. The plush wolf was designed by the Fairy Dust Toy Company, the very same company that makes friendly snakes for the Parseltongue speaking kids, and like all their plush toys Mickey is charmed to alert the child’s parent if there is a problem.
Every other night Mickey would trot over to get Brian because Julian was having a bad dream, but this was different. Julian was rubbing his eyes in pain. The wolf bounded into the room across the hall and nuzzled Brian awake. Sensing something truly urgent Brian instantly bolted out of the bed and went to his son’s side.
“Julian tell me what’s wrong” Brian urged the small child in the bed.
Julian sniffled as he rubbed his eyes “my eyes hurt Daddy”
“don’t rub them, that might make it worse … let me see” Brian said softly, but sternly. Julian lowered his tiny hands and slowly opened his eyes. Brian was shocked to see his son recoil in fear “Julian it’s alright. It’s only me … tell me what you see so I can help”
Calming down a little Julian looked at his Daddy “there are swirls of different blues all around you and flickers of red. I see white fuzz around Mickey and I’m glowing too! Daddy what’s wrong?”
Brian smiled and kissed Julian’s forehead “nothing is wrong. You just gained a rare trait from my family” he said calmly. It just figures the child that has a major trust issue with magic suddenly gains the ability to see auras …
