“I’m speaking”
Pairing: Yaoi M/M, Harem – top Harry x bottom de-aged Severus / Tom / Lucius
Last Time:
No one saw a shadow behind the chair move …
XXXXXXXXXX
Draco yawned cutely as his mother shook him awake “5 more minutes Mama” he mumbled sleepily.
“you sure my little dragon? By then all those pancakes will get cold” Narcissa said sadly and had to surpass a giggle as her son immediately woke. Pancakes always did the trick.
Draco bounced happily as his mother helped dress him and eagerly ran out into the hall where he saw his father and a strange young man go into a room “mama who’s with Daddy?” the curious six year old asked.
Narcissi smiled “his name is Tom and he and your Daddy are visiting their soulmate”
The little blonde’s eyes widened “can I meet Daddy’s soulmate?”
“of course, but it will have to wait until later” Narcissa said she followed her son making sure to hold his hand as they slowly went down the stairs.
The little blonde grinned as he saw Peter and ran over to hug him “Uncle Peter!”
Peter recoiled with a look of mock fear “ah! A dragon attack! I know just what to do!” he scooped the little blonde into his arms and proceeded to tickle the ‘dragon’ into submission … or into a giggling fit as he case may be. Narcissa laughed as her son wriggled in her lover’s grasp. Finally Peter stopped the tickling and set Draco in the chair next to him “now what would you like to eat Draco?”
“pancakes!” Draco smiled, but as his Uncle Peter piled some pancakes on his plates he noticed some other foods he hasn’t seen before “what’s that?” he asked when his mother sat next to Peter.
“that is French toast … your house elves have gone muggle Lucius!” Peter called as he saw his Lucius come down the stairs with Tom and snickered at the look that crossed his friend’s face.
Even though he and Tom went to give Harry breakfast neither of them actually stopped to see the food that was prepared. They just took some pancakes and scrambled eggs, which were simple and light for a tummy that was used to being starved, and left without looking at the rest of the food. Lucius finally glanced at the feast properly and was surprised to see some old recipes he hasn’t had since he was a kid mixed in with some muggle dishes. His father used to have the house elves make special biscuits that were heavenly with jam and butter, but his mother banned them and all the sweet things she hated after his father died. Now a plate of those biscuits were sitting on the table …
“apparently the elves are trying some old recipes too so I’ll ignore the muggle food. They probably did that for Harry” Lucius said as he happily grabbed some biscuits for himself and spread some butter on them.
Tom shrugged and put a couple pieces of French toast on his plate “muggles can be cruel, but they can make some good food. Besides it’s best not to waste food”
Draco swallowed his mouthful of his syrup covered pancake and sipped his milk before looking across the table at his father “is Harry your soulmate Daddy? Why can’t I meet him?” he asked with a pout.
“yes Harry is my intended Draco as in Harry Potter” the adults and teen all chuckled as Draco’s eyes widened in awe. All children knew about Harry Potter. Draco wasn’t obsessed like other kids, but it was still a shock “Harry is also Tom’s and your Uncle Severus’s intended too, but …” Lucius sighed “Harry wasn’t hidden away safely like so many people thought … he was being held prisoner by some very mean people. They were very cruel to him and he needs some time to recover”
Being the kind child he was Draco looked worried “they … they hurt him … Can I help Harry?”
Narcissa smiled at her son “Harry needs some things of his own so why don’t you come shopping with me?”
“Ok Mama!” Draco said happily and continued eating not realizing that Peter placed a spell on him so the adults could discuss a serious matter.
Lucius sighed “the Aurors will bring everything back before lunch. I think you should extend your shopping trip” Narcissa nodded, neither of them wanted Draco to go through the Aurors’ bumbling again.
“the others in the cellar should be warned too and I’ll stay with Harry, but what were you saying about the locket?” Tom asked Peter.
Peter swallowed his food before answering “the locket wasn’t there. I found the bowl and it had the potion in it, but when I poured the coconut oil in to counteract it there was nothing there. What happened when the Dark Pain in the Ass put the horcrux there?”
“Voldemort killed a muggle, put the piece of soul in the locket, borrowed a house elf- …” Tom paused in his trip through the memories of a mad man and winced as he realized something “he asked Regulus Black if he could use Kreacher … Narcissa is Kreacher still alive?”
“why yes he is!” Narcissa exclaimed. They finished breakfast first and removed the spell on Draco. Before the elves could appear to take the food left away Bellatrix walked out of the cellars, kissed her nephew and asked for the food to be brought downstairs so they could eat in front of the cells. Draco looked baffled, but everyone else seemed to understand. No one was going to tell the little boy that his aunt wanted to taunt the muggles by eating tasty food in front of them just like they did with Harry. When Draco went with Lucius to get a coat for the unseasonal chilly weather she called for the Black family house elf “Kreacher!”
An old sad grimy elf wearing a pillowcase appeared “Mistress has called Kreacher?”
“yes … Kreacher we need to know something that happened with the Dark Lord. Do you know what happened to the locket he tried to hide in the cave?” Narcissa asked hoping the house elf would answer even if she was technically a Malfoy now and not a Black.
Kreacher cringed and looked heartbroken “the Dark Lord asked Kreacher to drink a nasty potion so he could put the locket there. Kreacher was left for dead, but Master Regulus told Kreacher to return when Kreacher finished his task so Kreacher had to return … Master Regulus asked what happened and told Kreacher to take him to the cave. Master drank the potion” Tom felt a flash of guilt as he realized what happened. It wasn’t his fault, but he couldn’t help but feel bad “Master told Kreacher to take the locket and destroy it, but Kreacher couldn’t”
Narcissa sighed in relief “Kreacher I need you to bring the locket here. We’re going to remove the dark magic” the elf’s eyes lit up for the first time in years before disappearing. The next second Kreacher appeared with the dazzling Slytherin locket in his hand. Tom kneeled in front of the elf and respectfully took the locket. In only a second the soul fragment was absorbed and the locket was returned to Kreacher who started to tear up as he sensed the dark magic was in fact gone.
“you keep that Kreacher. Go back and clean up Grimmauld. It’s time for a few changes over there and you should get a uniform” Narcissa ordered and Kreacher happily disappeared with a pop to complete his new orders knowing he Regulus’s wish was fulfilled.
“oh! I nearly forgot! Peter do you remember what vault number 687 is? I recall it for some reason, but I can’t remember it” Narcissa asked.
“687? … 687? … hmmmm that does seem very familiar … I’ll try to remember” Peter promised as he kissed Narcissa.
Draco came running up to his mother with Lucius not far behind “I’m ready Mama!”
“yes you are! Now we need to get clothes and toys for Harry” Narcissa smiled as her son scurried ahead of her to get to the fireplace first.
“and candy!” Draco chirped.
Lucius smiled “that’s a good idea. Grab a selection for him, would you?”
“ok Daddy!” said the mini blonde waved and took his Mama’s hand before disappearing in a rush of green flames with Narcissa.
Peter frowned and turned to Lucius “when are the Aurors coming?”
“I expect them before lunch, but considering how much trouble they’re in I bet they’ll ne here soon. Dobby! Flippy! Flopsy!” the three house elves appeared in front of Lucius ready to be given an order “before the Aurors get here make sure to clean every trace of Bellatrix and the others. Bellatrix and everyone already there can stay, but I don’t want the cellars found. When they do get here make sure they put everything back where it was and keep them away from Harry”
“yes Master!” the house elves said though Flippy and Flopsy looked at Dobby as if hey wanted to tell him something just before disappearing.
Peter sighed “I’ll stay in the cellars when the Aurors come here … I assume you both will be with Harry right?” he snickered as Lucius and Tom had a slight blush on their cheeks.
A few minutes later the Ministry floo called the Malfoy Manor …
XXXXXXXXXX
Severus internally groaned as a cauldron melted. He hated it when students couldn’t grasp even the most basic concept when brewing potions. It shouldn’t be this bloody difficult to make a wart remover! This time he pushed his irritation to the side and took advantage of the gap of time between classes to look around for the Room of Requirement. To his surprise a set of doors materialized exactly where Tom said it would and all he had to do is think of something he lost. Considering tis place is full of kids losing things it’s a wonder more people don’t know about this.
“impressive” the potion master breathed when he opened the doors and saw the endless towers of crap that students have lost over time. With the door shut behind him he started looking for the diadem. Right when he was going to try summoning it he spotted it sparkling on a stack of textbooks. How it got up there he didn’t know, but he carefully levitated it down. He was about to leave, but once he turned around he froze as he saw someone …
It was Moaning Myrtle just floating there watching him carefully. When she looked at the diadem in his hands Severus opened his mouth to say something, However, she cut him off by placing a ghostly finger to her lips telling him to be silent. Myrtle floated up the tallest tower of junk and came back down with a book, which she gave to the potion master. She pointed to herself and then the title of the book, which was ‘Curse Collection’ and then she pointed to her ears and mouth.
Severus scowled as he understood the message. She was cursed so that someone can hear what she says and maybe what people say to her as well. He set the diadem down and consulted the other books. One by one he found the words to point to and give her a message …
‘old’ … ‘friend’ … ‘is’ … ‘returning’ … ‘to’ … ‘whole’
Myrtle grinned and pointed out some words of her own …
‘swat’ … ‘him’ … ‘for’ … ‘me’
The potion master smirked and nodded. Myrtle floated away with a smirk and Severus shrank the book and Diadem so he could take them with him without anyone knowing. All he had to do is get through one more class, finish the potions for Harry and then he can go. Though he did wonder how Myrtle found him when she did …
XXXXXXXXXX
Harry woke up again at the sound of a door opening and saw blurs that sounded like Lucius, Severus and Tom. Out of habit he immediately thought about getting out of the bed and wait to be given orders, but then he decided to take a chance. He wanted to know if he’d really be allowed to stay in the bed or if he’d be punished … so he stayed on the bed …
“late, after what they did they have the nerve to be late and then they break a vase the second they come through the door. These idiots can’t do anything right” Lucius growled, but softened his tone when he saw Harry watching them. The boy’s body was tense like he was going to run at any moment. It hasn’t quite sunk in to the poor child that he was safe yet … it hurt a little that his mate to be was scared “hello Harry, you’ve been asleep for a while. I was going to wake you for lunch, but you were so tired I thought I’d let you sleep. Are you hungry? It’s nearly dinner, but you can snack on something if you want?”
For a second Harry panicked … not because he didn’t eat a meal, but because he didn’t make a meal. Though he noticed no one was mad. No, instead they asked if he was hungry. This truly was a different place. Harry was starting to understand, but he still shook his head even though he must’ve been hungry. It was the only answer he could think of …
“it will have to wait until after I give Harry some potions, but you shouldn’t feel afraid to say if you’re hungry” Severus said gently as he sat on the bed next to the small 6 year old and removed some potions. They knew he was hungry, but Harry may not know how to communicate it “now I have a nutrient potion like before and a potion for your eyesight, ok?” the little boy nodded with interest in his eyes.
Severus felt a little smug at the fact that he could do this for Harry and that he peeked the boy’s interest in potions. Maybe they could brew together in the future … the idea felt oddly romantic to Severus, but he focused on getting Harry better. It will be a while before they could take romance to the forefront of their relationship. For now he gave Harry the potions he made and again Harry drank them without any fuss. There was a small gasp of surprise as the green eyes began seeing in sharp clear details never seen before. A small ‘thank you’ was heard and Severus smiled at the timid boy.
Tom smiled as the boy looked nervous again “I know coming here is a big change Harry, but we’ll help you in any way”
A spark of jealousy hit Lucius and Severus as Harry looked up at Tom without any fear or submissive behavior. Tom had the benefit of meeting Harry in the form of a harmless book, which made it easier for Harry to relax around Tom. They both hoped Harry would feel as safe around them. Though as the young wizard leaned into the hug the potion master gave him they were hopeful that Harry would warm up to them soon.
“what are those fools doing down there?” Lucius muttered as crash was heard from downstairs “I’m glad Narcissa extended her shopping trip with Draco. I don’t want Draco going through this chaos again”
“indeed … speaking of chaos …” Severus pulled the diadem out of his robes and gave it to Tom. It did occur to Severus that this could wait until they weren’t around Harry, but he didn’t feel that there was a good reason to hide this from Harry. Considering a horcrux was already removed from his head the young boy had a right to see and be told, especially when Tom confronts Voldemort “your next soul fragment” Harry watched as Tom swallowed the glowing orb that flew out of the crown. It was exactly like what happened when the orb was taken out of his scar “Myrtle also sent a message”
A dark brow raised as the supposedly 15 year old student took the book. When Tom saw the title he chuckled bitterly “she’s cursed …”
Harry saw the sad look that crossed Tom’s face and immediately wanted to make him feel better. The child unknowingly released his magic and wrapped it around the occupants in the room making them relax “is Myrtle a friend?”
“yes … a very dear friend” Tom hummed at the pleasant feeling of Harry’s magic holding him. It was clear to them that Harry would be very powerful when he grows up.
The door opened revealing Dobby who was twitching violently in irritation “those fools have finally left the manor Master Malfoy” the elf noticed Harry looking at him curiously and smiled.
Lucius felt a little disappointed as the magic of his soulmate retreated back suddenly “yes, thank you Dobby. I’ll come and look at the damage. We’ll charge them for it” he looked at Harry who was still holding the potion master “we’ll be right back so if you feel up to it you can eat dinner with us. I would like you to meet my son Draco. He’s the same age as you so I think you will both get along” he said as he kissed the top of the boy’s head and left to see what happened. Severus and Tom reluctantly left as well to discuss something with that woman named Bellatrix …
Harry looked around the room again feeling grateful to have his new vision. As he drank in every detail and committed it to memory he noticed a shadow move from behind the chair. He got off the bed and peered behind the chair where he found … only the step stool … nothing else that would make a shadow move. It didn’t seem very weird compared to the first good look he had of the house elf he had a moment ago so he shrugged it off. This world was strange to him and he knew very little about it, but he wanted to learn so he grabbed his step stool and went to the library …
XXXXXXXXXX
Severus glance at Tom as Lucius muttered curses about idiot Aurors “how do you think Myrtle knew to be there? It’s like she was guarding your horcrux” he said and raised an eyebrow as he saw the house elves talking to each other. Whatever it was about it definitely made Dobby irritated.
“Myrtle has always been very clever. I bet she, being a ghost, could sense something happened with my soul after her death. She knew me better than anyone, which means she knew where to look. If she was bound to the castle then she did what she could to guard the piece of my soul that was still there … I’m not sure how she knew you were there, but I learned to never underestimate her” Tom said fondly, but then winced as Severus smacked him lightly on the back of the head “hey!”
“Myrtle told me to” Severus smirked as Tom huffed “we’re done with the horcruxes” he said seriously as Peter, Bellatrix and the other Death Eaters came out of the cellar.
“excellent!” Bellatrix grinned evilly as she flicked some blood off her cheek “one more piece to grab. Barty, Rodolphus, Rebastan! We’re going Voldie hunting!” she yelled making the Carrow twins smirk as the three men groaned.
“be careful hunting around Albania. You’re all escaped convicts after all” Lucius muttered as Narcissa and a happy Draco flooed back home.
Dobby popped over to Lucius grabbing everyone’s attention “Master Malfoy, Dobby was just informed that no elf made breakfast today and the wards weren’t tripped”
“what do you mean-” Lucius trailed off and covered his face with his palm “Dobby … it was Harry … I might’ve forgotten to fix my wards” he said as a blush crept onto his cheeks ignoring the snickers from everyone.
Flippy squeaked “Flippy just saw the little Master going to the library. He knows his way around quite well, but Flippy doesn’t know where he got the stool he has”
“step stool?” Peter blinked and they exchanged glances before the entire group of Death Eaters raced to the library. Narcissi gave Draco to the three elves and joined the others. There was no such thing in this home or most magical places except for places like St. Mungos in case healers want to conserve their magic or help people who strained their magic coils. A home with house elves didn’t need step stools so what was Harry using?
Tom got into the library and spotted Harry first so he scooped the boy off he stool he was standing on “tell me Harry, where did you get that stool?” he asked as he stepped back and let the group of wizards and witches surround the stool, which sounded absolutely ridiculous …
“it appeared in the middle of the kitchen, I’m sorry” Harry apologized quickly thinking he was in trouble.
Bellatrix smirked as she pointed her wand at the stool “you aren’t the one in trouble here Harry. This thing is the one that needs to explain itself” Harry looked confused, but then Rowle cast a mild stinging hex at the stool …
The step stool started to shake and warp as its shadow went wild …
