“I’m speaking”
Pairing: Yaoi M/M, Harem – top Harry x bottom de-aged Severus / Tom / Lucius
Last Time:
The step stool started to shake and warp as its shadow went wild …
XXXXXXXXXX
“shit … what is this thing?” Peter muttered as the stool crackled and warped into a new shape. At first the shadow seemed to act separately, but as the stool changed the shadow calmed down and there in front of then was a little black fox.
Tom eyed the creature carefully as it looked at Harry sadly “it’s a nature sprite … Harry do you know this creature?”
“it looks like Vesta, but Dudley got mad when she growled at him and Uncle Vernon … ran her over with the lawnmower and locked me up in the cupboard” Harry said sadly.
Severus sneered at that bit of knowledge “really? … Tom what in Merlin’s name is a nature sprite?”
The dark eyes of the teenage soul narrowed suspiciously “we’ll discuss why you’re lacking what was basic knowledge when I was in school later. As for sprites, they’re shape shifters that are considered guardians of magic in a way. When they shift their magic warps their shadows making the shadow look and act like a different entity for a few seconds. Some even have strong abilities in casting illusions. The number of sprites were once used to see how healthy an areas’ magic was. Those were once used to find the best place for rituals to be preformed, but I’ve never seen one outside of a forest before … I wonder …” Tom looked at the fox and then at Harry “ask it to change shape”
Harry tilted his in confusion and looked at the fox “turn into a cup” the fox yipped happily and warped into a clear glass cup.
Barty scooped up the cup, but when he was looking at it the cup shattered. Some of the glass cut his hand, but the next second the glass and cuts were gone and the fox was sitting on the ground with a playful glint in it’s eyes “wow … it felt so real” he said as he tried to examine his hand for the cut that was there just seconds ago.
“it is … Harry I think this is Vesta. Your Uncle may have hurt her, but she didn’t let that stop her. I believe she chose you. She’s your familiar” Tom said more than a little relieved that it wasn’t a creature or person who would hurt Harry. As everyone lowered their wands they wondered why they felt like they were missing some information and Tom sighed “I think Dumbledore didn’t just remove the books on horcruxes, but what could he possibly gain from taking such vital information?”
Narcissa smiled as the fox jumped up onto Harry, who was still in Tom’s arms, and cuddled with the boy “we’ll figure things out after we … get your final piece. Besides, I’m sure Harry and Draco are getting hungry-”
“THAT’S IT!” Peter yelped suddenly scaring Harry badly if the whimper and shaking was any indication. The deadly glares from Severus, Lucius and Tom forced the spy to clap his hands over his own mouth “sorry Harry … I remembered what vault 687 was … it’s one of the Potter vaults specifically Harry’s trust. I mentioned it when you guys were setting things up for Draco in order to start divorce preparations”
“but that means Dumbledore is taking money from Harry’s vault. That’s why I asked. I over heard him asking to withdraw money from that vault in Gringotts” Narcissa explained.
“is that so?” Lucius said in a dangerously calm tone as he glared at Peter almost wishing the spy was wrong.
“y-yeah” Peter chuckled nervously as he felt a deadly aura pouring off Harry’s intendeds. It was understandable though since anyone would be furious if they discovered someone as stealing from their soulmate, but he really hoped they didn’t take it out on the messenger.
“I’m sure Dobby started dinner so lets go” Narcissa said cheerfully and looked at Harry with a soft smile “my son, Draco, and I got you lots of things including clothes so you don’t need to worry about not having things of your own” she said. The amazed look on Harry’s face made their hearts clench … the young boy didn’t expect to have anything of his own … that will change soon if they have anything to say about.
Everyone headed down to dinner except for Lucius. Peter was dragged away in order to help redo all the wards in the house so little Harry can’t get into those places again. A child should not be cooking full course meals alone especially when they can’t see over the counter without a step stool.
“hey Sevvy, what’s a lawnmower?” Bellatrix asked once Harry was taken out of hearing range.
Severus sighed “it’s a muggle device used to cut grass using very sharp spinning blades … I’ll get you one to show you” the potion master said knowing full well what the sadistic witch wanted to do …
“I’ll use it well. Now lets eat quickly. We head for Albania right after dinner. Any arguments?” Bellatrix grinned evilly just daring poor Barty, Rabastan and Rodolphus to object … said men just cowered and wisely stayed silent.
XXXXXXXXXX
Draco looked up to see his mama and the man named Tom coming down “is everything ok mama?” he asked. He noticed a child and a fox in Tom’s arms and immediately knew it was Harry Potter. It was clear by how skinny and small the boy was that his father wasn’t kidding about Harry being with mean people. The ‘Boy Who Lived’ looked two years younger than Draco and was flinching at any loud sounds.
“yes honey. It seems this fluffy little guest was the culprit” Narcissa said and she pointed at the fox in Harry’s arms as Tom gently set the green eyed boy on the floor and kneeled comfortingly next to him “Draco this is Harry Potter” she smiled at Harry “Harry this is mine and Lucius’s son Draco Malfoy” Narcissa caught the green eyes flicker over to Peter as he and Lucius went towards the kitchen to fix the wards. It was clear that Harry was a very bright boy, but now Harry was calculating the possible drama and how he will get hurt “it’s ok Harry. Peter and I are together now and Lucius is happy about it. You’ll soon find that there are several differences in beliefs between muggle world and here, but we’ll help you sweety. Would you like to eat with us?”
Harry looked up at her with a glimmer of hope “yes please” he said so softly they might’ve missed it if even one person made a single sound.
“yes! You can sit with me” Draco smiled and held out his hand. Harry hesitantly took the hand in his and allowed Draco to drag him to the table. The young green eyed wizard was still small and had to be placed in a chair, but Severus had no problem helping the little boy. Soon everyone was seated at the table and the food appeared out of nowhere slightly startling Harry, but he recovered quickly.
Alecto smiled as the two boys ate even though Harry was eating very slowly “Tom you said nature sprites were common knowledge when you were in school … what else was?” she asked as Vesta turned into a cushion for Harry to sit on. The boy was not just small, but the poor thing was skin and bones, which meant he must‘ve been uncomfortable sitting on the chair. Of course Harry wouldn’t complain about such a little bit of discomfort so they didn’t think about it, but Vesta clearly sensed it …
“I did take a moment to really look at his memories I think a few bits of information were lost” Tom said after swallowing some food “first are the Nature Sprites obviously, but I couldn’t find any information about certain potions. The Age Reversal seems to have disappeared and so has the Male Pregnancy spell”
Severus’s eyes widened in shock just like most of the other occupants of the table “Age Reversal? … Male P-Pregnancy? Such things existed? How could that have been lost?” he asked as a deep part of his started thinking of children for the first time in years. Lucius was also thinking of more kids too. He and Narcissa adore kids, but they couldn’t make more together. It was already tricky with Malfoys and their low sperm count, but it wasn’t fair to Peter who was more than understanding when his soulmate was married off to have some else’s kid. Yes, Draco was worth it, but Narcissa and Peter should be with each other now … maybe Malfoy’s would be more fertile if the men carried the babies. The opportunity was amazing …
Tom smiled softly, which was quite a sight for those who worked with the fearsome and cruel Voldemort “yes and those are such incredible things to have … his mind was unstable. So much so his memories are almost scrambled with insanity, but it was clear enough for me to find that he never cared to correct this missing information. In fact, he like knowing more than other people … there were a few other very important things too. I know all the information on horcruxes was removed while I was still sill in school. If Dumbledore took that chance to remove even more then who knows how much is gone”
“not completely gone. Your friend, Myrtle, has been storing tons of books in the Room of Requirement. I’m sure the Ravenclaw has protected plenty of information. I’ll try a get as much as I can” Severus said before turning to cut some chicken into smaller pieces for Harry who was trying to eat what he could.
“that explains the sudden rush of thefts of textbooks right after her death” Tom deadpanned. Why did he have to have such a crazy friend? Doesn’t matter since she is a great friend.
Bellatrix snickered “I like this Myrtle … anything we should know when confronting him?”
“yes, his is already able to possess people. I have no memories after his attack on Harry, but be careful for I wouldn’t be surprised if that power is stronger as a disembodied ghost. Look for snakes. At some point he considered using a snake as a horcrux in the future so he’ll probably try testing that by possessing snakes … Merlin knows why he’d make so many horcruxes? The temptation must truly be strong” Tom mused.
Barty frowned “that’s interesting. If making one horcrux makes you want more then how many does Dumbledore have? How do we know where it ends?”
“I don’t know for sure, but I have a theory that might help us find out. Each horcrux I absorbed has a certain amount of … the only way to describe it is dead magic. We can use that principle to measure how many horcruxes were made … if we can figure out how to get close enough to measure the amount coming off his soul” Tom said a he thought about how to complete that task.
Yaxley glanced at the two boys. Draco wasn’t really paying too close attention to what they were saying and was talking to Harry thanks to the privacy charm Narcissa cast on them, but he wanted to make sure before he brought up a morbid topic “we also need to consider how the horcruxes were made. Bells said it involved killing so who did he kill? Where did he hide them? We actually know less about his past than yours”
“what Voldemort claimed was just the insanity talking. My mother was from the Gaunt family. She fell for a muggle and used love potions to get him. when she became pregnant with me she stopped the potions thinking he’ll stay, but he left and she died giving birth to me so I was raised in a muggle orphanage. That’s my life, does it change anything?” he asked unconcerned about his past. To his surprise though everyone seemed to have a shine of loyalty Voldemort never got to see “but you’re right. We know very little and what we do know could be fake”
Peter snapped his fingers as a thought came to mind “I know a few people who can dig something up and we have Gellert Grindelwald too. The two did fight in a brutal battle. The imprisoned Dark Lord could know something”
“it always did seem odd that that man was left alive, but Dumbledore tried so hard to kill you” Severus pondered out loud “we should consider the squib’s monthly reports. If we don’t give Dumbledore something he’ll know Harry’s gone and I don’t want that man hunting Harry”
The Carrow twins smirked “leave that to us. With the right know how it can be very hard to tell how’s actually writing to you” they both said in perfect sync. Tom smirked as he recalled the twins undercover skills from Voldemort’s memories. There’s a reason the madman didn’t just dispose of them like so many other followers.
“good … anything else regarding Dumbledore should wait until after I had a chat with my idiotic counterpart” Tom said getting nods of agreement in return.
Bellatrix grinned evilly and grabbed Roldolphus and Rabastan’s collars to drag them away “then we’ll be off! Move it Barty!” Barty whimpered and left the table after the crazy witch.
The sound of the floo taking the four magical beings to the closest floo in Albania was heard and the kids were allowed to hear the rest of the conversation. After dinner Severus left several potions for Harry that Lucius will give him at every meal from now on to help Harry recover and promised to be back with a scar removal salve. Harry was happy to hear that and shyly thanked Severus before the potion master flooed back to Hogwarts just in time to say he missed dinner there because of a potion that needed brewing. As Peter went to continue examining to portkey from Ms. Figg, Draco gently took Harry’s hand and followed his mother and father up to Harry’s room …
“we got you lots of fun things and clothes” Draco said not aware that his parents were looking at him proudly for being patient with Harry “what do you think?” he asked softly as they opened the door to Harry’s room.
Harry gasped as he saw a bunch of fun looking toys right off the bat, but the charmed toys were frozen until Harry was eased into the magical world. Draco went over to open the closet showing the hanging clothes that looked like they would actually fit him. He was still wearing the hand me down pajamas from Draco that Lucius gave him though those do fit better than Dudley’s clothes did “you’re letting me have all this?” Harry asked quietly.
“yes, it’s all yours Harry and since this is your room we’ll have to decorate it at some point so can decide what you want” Lucius smiled as Harry looked so happy that he was tearing up a little, but at the same time the older wizard’s heart clenched. This child should never had been denied so much.
“and we can be friends if you want” Draco offered hopefully. Green eyes almost looked overwhelmed, but Harry nodded tentatively anyway. Slowly but surely the young child was gently coaxed out of his shell over the next few days. There was a little tension when Harry was introduced to the talking paintings, but Harry was already used to a certain magic book so he recovered quickly … there was only one moment where Harry had a panic attack because of a bout of accidental magic
The accidental magic was brought on when Draco tried to show Harry a magical game called Exploding Snap and ended up scaring Harry. All the magic released made all the furniture float. Narcissa, who was reading as she watched the kids with Tom, was stunned to find the couch she was on was floating several feet in the air. Peter, who was studying the portkey, was amazed to find the chair and table he was working at floating. Lucius, who was in his office, was stunned when his heavy desk went up into the air. Everyone found it hilarious … after they calmed down Harry that is. The poor boy seemed to think he was in trouble …
“oh Harry it’s ok” Tom said soothingly as he held a shaking Harry close. Vesta yipped and hopped onto Tom’s shoulder to try and cheer Harry up.
“am I going to be sent away Tom or will Lucius want me to pay like the ministry?” the little boy mumbled into Tom’s shirt.
Lucus came into the room just in time to hear that and immediately felt guilty “I wouldn’t do that Harry. I sued the ministry because they mucked up a lot of things from my mother’s painting to breaking several other things. They’re full grown witches and wizards and should be able to handle themselves with much more grace, but they didn’t. if they used their heads more I wouldn’t be so hostile towards them. You’re a child who’s growing into his magic. You should never be afraid or ashamed when you have a bout of accidental magic. It’s completely normal and has happened to all of us” he said calmly and was glad to see Harry calm down and smile.
Peter sat on the floating table and used the chair as an ore to row the floating table into the living room where everyone was “I don’t know about you guys, but my accidents were never this …”
“majestic” Severus supplied after flooing into the stunning scene and overhearing Peter’s statement.
“exactly! I always blew something up … oh and I discovered that Dumbledore made this illegal portkey and the coordinates of where it lands. I’ll plot it on a map and see where it would go” Peter pulled an excited Draco onto the table and started rowing away much to Narcissa’s amusement.
“that’s good, we can investigate it later” Tom said as he gently rubbed circles on Harry’s back.
Severus ducked a floating ottoman “has there been any word from Bellatrix?” he asked as he set a bottomless bag filled with Myrtle’s stolen books down on a floating side table to go check on Harry who looked so much healthier already. According to Tom the nature sprite, Vesta, is helping Harry heal faster now that Harry is eating … she may have been the only reason Harry didn’t die before they got to him.
“no, but considering who they’re looking for it shouldn’t be expected to be easy … Lucius we should make a floating room. This is so relaxing!” Narcissa exclaimed as the couch she was on floated passed a floating bookshelf from the library and swapped out the book she was reading for another one.
Eventually the accidental faded away and the house elves put everything back where it originated. Despite the major rearrangement not one thing was broken …
XXXXXXXXXX
Barty was getting bored trudging through the forest and started narrating the groups movements “day 7 of the Dark Lord search is coming to an end and the heros still have not found the elusive- ow!” he yelped as Bellatrix swatted him on the back of the head.
“be quiet or I- …” Bellatrix froze as she spotted a big snake slither confidently towards them. The snake had a familiar power about it and she knew they found what they were after. The others seemed to feel it too for they became tense “my lord! Thank Merlin we found you-” the snake rose higher and hissed dangerously “we do apologize for coming so late my lord. We were trapped in Azkaban for years before we could escape. The Malfoys are waiting at their manor for your safe return”
The snake nodded in satisfaction and slithered onto Bellatrix’s shoulders missing the flicker of disgust in her eyes. She loved snakes, but not when they’re possessed by a Dark Lord. Rodolphus released his Patronus without the evil snake seeing and the silver monkey raced away to warn everyone to be ready. They all knew they couldn’t apparate because the Ministry might find them so the long trek back to the only floo nearby was started. By nightfall they were in the Malfoy Manor and everyone, minus two kids who were asleep in their beds, was present. Including someone Voldemort did not expect …
‘how did you get free from your book?! Go back before you risk my immortality’ Voldemort ordered in parseltongue from his temporary snake body.
Tom smirked at the pathetic creature before him ‘oh no, I believe it’s time for a new arrangement’
