Disclaimer:� I don�t own, nor
will I ever.

Sorry for this taking a bit of time to release.� I�ve been rather busy as of late. �This is the last chapter in his first year and
I�m not sure where I�m going to go with it next.

Chapter 8

�� No
one was pleased to be sitting before the courts, especially the vampires.� Their attorney had assured them they had a
rock solid case.� Having performed blood
rituals to make Harry their child had sealed the deal totally.� All of their paperwork was in order but the
fact that they were vampires didn�t go in their favor.� Dumbledore had told the ministry that their
home was not acceptable, that Harry was in danger, which couldn�t be further
from the truth.

�� Doriel Janos Lior and Alexander Constantin
Lior, both vampires.� What kind of
home could they possibly give to an eleven year old boy?� A ministry
representative was speaking; Harry was seated between Doriel and Alexander, the
boy having refused to be separated from them no matter how hard they tried to
get him away from them.� He continued his
speech, throwing Doriel and Alexander into the worst light he could.

�� When
he was finished their attorney got to his feet.�
His soft blue eyes looked out over those who would stand in judgment,
�Ladies and gentleman, we are here today because of one man believing that
these two people are not fit to raise a child.�
What is does not seem to be grasped is the fact that they have raised
him, he has been in their custody since he was a mere babe.� He turned his eyes
on Dumbledore, �That man would like you to believe that Doriel has failed as a
parent.� He looked at Harry, �Tell me, does this boy look like he�s been neglected?�
He motioned towards him, �There is no standing for these proceedings, all of
the paperwork is in order, Harry James Potter is Aurel
Stefan Lior.� When Harry was called to the stand he was nervous, the speeches
from both groups had been long and had given him time to think about his
situation.� If anything went wrong he could
find himself stuck with muggles who he was sure didn�t like him.� Their attorney approached him, smiling,
�Aurel, how are you?�

�� Harry
smiled slightly, �I�m just fine sir, thank you for asking.� Although I would rather be
home right now.�

�� Yes,
I�m sure you would.� He paused, �How do you like living with Doriel and
Alexander?�

�� I�m
very happy there.� It�s hope.� My father takes very good care of me.�

�� Your
father, you mean Doriel?�

�� He
nodded, �Yes, he�s my father.�

�� Thank
you Aurel.� He paused, �One more thing.�
Do you want to leave them?�

�� He
scowled, shaking his head, �No, I don�t.�

�� He
was approached by the other man, �Living with vampires has had no affect on you
whatsoever?� He questioned, his voice wasn�t as kind as his father�s attorney�s
was.

�� I�m
sure it has had an affect on me sir.� I
was raised to be courteous and polite.�

�� Have
you seen anyone die before?� Be tortured
by the vampires you have been staying with?�

�� Harry�s
scowl deepened, �They have never done any such thing!� He shouted, the room
filling with raw magic at his anger, �They have never harmed me, never laid a
hand on me, nor have they ever harmed anyone who didn�t mean them or me harm in
my presence!� The representative was about to speak again when he was
interrupted, �I will not sit here and listen to you bad mouth the people who
have taken care of me for my entire life!�

�� I
apologize if it seems that way Mr. Potter but we are only trying to get to the
root of the problem.� It was never
intended for you to be raised by Mr. Lior; he removed you from your relatives�
home��

�� Relatives
who don�t really care what happens to me nor do they
truly want me.� I could tell that much
from when I met them at the station.� He
did what was best for me.�

�� And
turning you into a vampire is best for you?�

�� Harry
narrowed his eyes, �I�m not one right now and even if I become one it will be
my choice.� He paused, looking over at Dumbledore before looking back, �I want
to stay with Doriel.� I�m happy, well
taken care of, and I have a good life.� With that said he got to his feet and
moved over to sit between Doriel and Alexander.

�� The
hearing continued on, Doriel and Alexander gave their statements, Dumbledore
gave one as well.� The decision was
passed down; Harry was to stay with Doriel and Alexander.� It was apparent to all involved that he was
safe and happy.� Although he had gotten
what he wanted he was sure that it wasn�t going to be the last time that
Dumbledore was going to try and keep him away from Doriel.

�� Harry
relaxed in his room, stretched out over his bed as night fell.� Avor was curled up
beside him, sleeping contentedly in a little ball of fluff.� He had gotten some of his summer homework
done and was taking a break.� Still
grounded for putting himself in danger he had used his time to get some reading
done.� The sound of tapping at his window
made him scowl.� It was a little chilly
tonight so he had closed it.� With a sigh
he got to his feet and undid the latch, letting in a tawny owl.

�� I�m
sorry I don�t have anything to give you.� He said, taking the letter, �Thank
you.�

�� The
owl gave a soft hoot in reply before flying off leaving Harry to close the
window and see who had sent him a letter.�
He opened it and began to read.

�� Harry,

I wanted to thank you again for
saving my life.� I know that your friends
don�t like muggleborns but I don�t know exactly how
you feel.� I heard about the hearing and
I�m glad that they ruled in your favor.�
Take care of yourself and I�ll see you this year.

�� Hermione

�� He
blinked at the letter.� It had been short
and to the point but he found himself not sure of how to feel about the
witch.� He hadn�t been raised to discount
the abilities of muggleborns but he had been taught
that only those who had proven themselves were worthy of a second glance.� Hermione had proven herself to be intelligent
and Harry knew he�d have to keep an eye on her before Dumbledore sunk his hooks
in.� Although her seeming relationship
with Weasley gave him pause.� He would
most assuredly have to take a closer look.
