It does what it may

Harry and Hermione jumped off the train onto the platform with more than a few students looking at their choice of clothes oddly. Hermione had a low cut pink top which showed off her six pack revealed by her open robes while Harry's robes were also open but he forewent the shirt completely making all the girls blush at him but shot Hermione jealous looks when they saw they were holding hands.

"Firs' Years o'er here, Firs' Year." Hagrid called out and checked them all before leading them down a slippery slope towards the lake which got infinitely worse when it started raining heavily making everyone except Hagrid, Hermione and Harry who just grinned and bared it.

They each got into a boat with a blond girl and a redheaded girl sharing a boat with them who were complaining about the rain as with Harry and Hermione were just leaning back in the boat looking to the clouds and smiling as the rain hit their bodies.

They ducked under the curtain of ivy with some boy not ducking fast enough and was thrown into the lake when he got caught in it. Harry pulled the boy out of the water muttering something about back in his day making everyone laugh before the half-giant knocked on the door three times.

"Are these the first years Hagrid?" McGonagall asked her eyes sweeping over them all making them very nervous and the man nodded. "Follow me please."

Harry ignored the witch's speech about what Hogwarts would be to them and rather tried to keep his tails away from the others who got over his shirtlessness and were trying to pet them. Harry got fed up after five minutes of it after McGonagall left so he started snapping his tails at offending hands like a whip making everyone jump back.

"If you will follow me now." Minerva said through the now open doorway and everyone filed out sure to now avoid Harry's tails.

Everyone but Harry and Hermione gazed in awe around the hall and they both ignored the hat's song in favor of having a mental conversation but the last few lines gob smacked them.

"The founders saw the divide

So a thousand years ago they prophesized

A fifth house shall rise for the Pure One

Walks among us to unite the families

And bring peace as Royalty such."

The hall was deathly silent staring at the wall behind the Head Table as the four current houses banners appeared but there was a space behind Dumbledore's chair where a pure white and silver banner appeared without a house animal.

"Souran, if you please." The hat said making Harry go into a coughing fit and look incredulously at the hat as if it was completely bonkers. "Each house requires a House Animal and Hogwarts has chosen you."

Harry looked around for anyone to move but sighed when nobody did. Walking forwards everyone turned to stare at him before he jumped into the air turning into his True Animagus Form shocking every person that was looking.

Flying forwards Harry flapped his wings before hovering just in front of the new banner before touching it gently with his beak while letting out a thrill. The banner rippled slightly before gaining a picture of him in flight in the centre making him thrill happily.

Flying back Harry turned to normal as he landed back in his place behind Hermione and the whole hall fell out of their stupor.

"I suppose I'm already sorted aren't I?" Harry asked the hat who nodded it's 'head' at him. "Smaller than the other houses?"

The hat nodded again and Harry raised his wand making a table furnished with silver and white table tops and platters with forks, knifes and goblets as well. The table was big enough to sit forty students and in the process he gob smacked the entire hall yet again.

The sorting went smoothly for the rest with Harry getting twenty seven students in his House which included Hermione and the two from the boat.

"Now, welcome back to old students and welcome to new faces and our new House which we will discuss after the feast." Dumbledore said happily to them all as he stood but was very curious and intrigued inside that Harry had formed a new house and Hogwarts approved of it. "But for now tuck in."

Everyone dived into the food and Harry had begun with having everyone in his house introduce themselves to each other much to the joy of everyone. Sirius and Dumbledore smiled at Harry doing this for his house which would actually make them a lot more of a family than the other houses.

"Now that we have all been fed and watered it is time for announcements." Dumbledore said standing up as all the food disappeared. "Mr Filch has asked me to remind you that magic is not allowed in the corridors and that the list of banned items is viewable in his office, the Forbidden Forest is Forbidden to all students and the Third Floor corridor on the right side is forbidden to everyone."

"Prefects please take the first years to their Common rooms and can the new House please remain behind." He said and the hall was a flurry of activity while Harry and Hermione comfortably talked at their seats.

"Now Mr Potter." Dumbledore began as he and the rest of the teachers walked towards him sitting at the table with James and Lily looking very alarmed.

"Please professor, I haven't been a Potter since my fifth birthday." Harry said cutting the man off politely. "You can call me Harry as my friends do, Lord Aleksander or Mr Aleksander."

"Of course Harry, since you are well the House we would like to know who you wish to take classes with, the name of the house and who your head of House will be." Dumbledore said and Harry nodded thinking of the second two while he told the others to decide who they would take classes with.

"Well my full Animagus name is Aleksander Souran so the House will be Souran and I would like Professor Sinistra to be our Head of House." Harry said and everyone looked at the astronomy teacher who nodded in acceptance. "How about half of us go with the Gryffindors and the other half with Ravenclaw's?"

"That can be arranged Mr Aleksander, but now we have a problem." Dumbledore said making everyone look at him with raised eyebrows. "Every house has a Quidditch team but your house only has First Years."

"Sir, maybe we could hold trials for our house after everyone else has and take people from every house." Hermione said making Snape scowl but Minerva smiled at her ingenious idea.

"I will see to it, I had the elves arrange a Common room and dormitories for you during dinner." He replied to them making Snape's scowl further. "The password is Pure One and the entrance is a wall on the Fifth floor with a White Phoenix indention in it."

Sinistra led her new house towards the common room which they all gasped in awe at when entering. The place looked like a scene from Heaven with the white sofa's and seats, white fluffy carpets, silver walls covered with portraits and even the fire was white. The carpets went up the stairs and over the whole dormitory covering every square inch of floor and three first years actually lay down on the fluffy and soft floor making carpet angels.

"Alright, boy's dormitory on the left and girls on the right." Sinistra said and they all went up to their respective dormitories leaving her basking in awe at the room around her.

"WAKE UP!" Hermione yelled into the ear of her brother Harry who slept in his bed or she thought so until he tried to hit her head only to have his hand go through her. "What the?"

"I see you found my illusion Hermione." Harry said walking out of the bathroom after his shower with the same clothes on yesterday with his jeans, shoes and robes being pure white but you could see his bare chest. "You like?"

"Wow." Hermione said as she looked him up and down while rubbing her hands over his shoulders before giving him a kiss on the cheek. "I love."

"Come on, we better go to breakfast and I'm sure your not getting any favors from your scream." He said taking her hand in his while making her clothes go pure white much to her joy.

The two walked down to breakfast slowly with a few of their housemates catching up to them as well as a few from other houses. They made it to the Great Hall but Harry was stopped by a gay looking sheep with platinum blond hair.

"Hello Aleksander, I'm Draco Malfoy one of the better Families in the Wizarding World and I can help you pick better friends than that Mudblood." He said holding his hand out for Harry to shake oblivious to the fact that the temperature had just gone into negative degrees and Harry's hands sparked with small arcs of lightning.

"Sure." Harry said grabbing Malfoy's hand too fast for the boy to protest when he saw the lightning and Malfoy dropped to his knees not able to scream out in pain. "I already know who is better than others and it's obviously you me and my friends need to stay away from, if you ever say that word again in front of me, to one of my friends or if I hear from someone else you said it you may not live to regret it."

Harry sent on more shock over Malfoy's body before letting go of the boy's hand and walking away with his friends like it was a casual everyday occurrence. Everyone got over their shock quickly while nobody helped the boy, not even Snape who had what people might describe as a happy sneer on his face.

The rest of breakfast went without interruption except for Sinistra giving the house their timetables and Harry groaned inwardly seeing as they had their lessons with Gryffindors. "Great, days full of my brother." Harry complained out loud to Hermione who merely giggled through her toast.

"Come on, we don't want to be late for Potions." Hermione said and the other Souran students nodded their heads and followed them out the hall before splitting into two groups and going in two different directions.

Harry's group shivered from the cold of the Dungeons as they stood in a line outside Snape's classroom waiting for the man while the Slytherin's and Gryffindors stood in messy lines insulting or scowling at each other.

Eric, Neville, Malfoy and two other Slytherin's were glaring at Harry but he paid them no attention rather focusing on other things. "Did you see how Snape left the hall last night?" Harry asked Hermione shocking her slightly. "His robes blew behind him but his hair didn't move an inch, do you think it's a spell he uses?"

"Enter." Snape said from his classroom and everyone went in taking seats at the back of the classroom while Hermione and Harry took seats at the front becoming Potions partners and a redheaded boy sat by the table next to them with a sandy haired boy.

"There will be little wand waving in my class so I do not expect you to believe that this is magic, most of you will not care for the soft shimmering of the potion fumes or the slow simmering of the potion." Snape said looking around the class as they pulled out their books and ingredients while being surprised that Harry and Hermione were already fully unpacked with a Master Potions kit and a copy of his book in front of them in addition to the regular school book. "I can teach you to brew Glory, bottle fame and even stopper death unless you are the usual group of dunderheads I am forced to teach."

"Today we will be studying the Wiggenweld Potion so turn to page five of your books." Snape said to them and once Harry and Hermione had turned to the page they put away the ingredients they wouldn't need back into it's case surprising him even more, not that he showed it. "I want each of you to study what ingredients you will need, study them for the next twenty minutes and then I want you to brew it for the last forty minutes of the lesson, failure will result in detention and five house points deducted."

Harry and Hermione immediately went to work on their potion and Snape was about to chastise them before he saw them move in synchronized and practice ease. He gave Longbottom and Eric a detention when they tried the same thing.

"How come they can skip learning the recipe?" Eric protested standing up in his seat.

"Five points from Gryffindor for back talking to a teacher, they unlike you and Longbottom have clearly practice this potion many times and have been taught by a very excellent potions master prior to them coming here." Snape said shutting the boy up who grudgingly went back to reading his book.

By the end of the lesson Gryffindor had lost twenty points, Slytherin got ten, Souran got thirty for their excellent brewing and got an additional twenty when Harry and Hermione had made enough potion, which was perfect and better due to certain substitute ingredients, for the assignment, to keep five large vials each and donate ten vials to the Hospital Wing and Professor Snape's personal potions cupboard.

"Sir, isn't it true that you can add a Bezoar to the Wiggenweld potion thereby increasing it's healing capabilities by two hundred percent and achieving the perfect antidote to any and all poisons including Basilisk Venom?" Harry asked just as the bell went.

"Yes it can Mr Aleksander, take another twenty points to Souran for ingenuity and going the extra mile." Snape said and the class filed out with the Souran house being first out and quickly on it's way to Magical Meditation which was taught by Lily Potter.

The class entered the classroom to find the floor littered with different colored mats which had a ball of swirling mist on a small pedestal and a lit candle in front of it. Harry and Hermione stood on mats closest to the middle of the circular formation they were all in without their shoes on.

They discarded their robes revealing their clothes from yesterday albeit pure white, the two began warm up exercises on the mats and soon all the Ravenclaw's and almost all the Gryffindors copying them and this was the scene that welcomed Lily Potter when she walked out of her office. All the boys were shirtless with only half having something nice to show while the rest were decent and the girls now had low cut tops revealing their stomachs.

"Well done, five points to each Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Souran student for going the extra mile. This is what I want each and every one of you to do when you come into my class whether or no I am here." She told them all putting the books she was holding on her desk after Eric and Neville grudgingly joined in near the middle ring of the circle. "Now, Magical Meditation is a precise and delicate art of merging oneself with your magical core to make it grow and make your spells stronger."

"It is highly recommended that when attempting to merge with your core you do it in a place with lots of natural magic or you risk of only half merging with your core which can cause severe damage." Lily explained as everyone sat cross legged on their mats looking at her as she stood in the centre of them all. "I want each of you to focus on the flame of the candle and feel for your magic inside of you, once you feel something fill your body turn your focus to the ball and the faster it swirls the bigger your core and the bright the color the more powerful you are."

"Professor." Harry said sticking his hand up while everyone else began the exercise. "My core was blocked completely on that night and the blocks loosened but I don't know what will happen when I merge, I think I may release magical pulses or something similar."

"Alright Harry, this is what I'll do." She said summoning seven black crystals from her drawer in her desk. "These crystals act a siphons which will absorb any magic radiating off of you unless it is too small to hurt anyone or if it actually can heal or help them."

Harry nodded before she put the crystals in a circle around him and Harry began meditating immediately feeling himself fill with power making everything around him feel alive. He stared into the mist of ball which was swirling faster than a twister and it began glowing bright white blinding him so much so he closed his eyes but the light shined through all his eyelids.

Harry felt something slip away inside of him before breaking into lots of pieces. Harry's body shook slightly as his magical core pushed magic into every small piece of him and Harry tried to keep it contained while he was merging with his core but under his steel hold a few wisps slipped past.

Lily saw the crystals turn white as they absorbed the magic leaking from him and turned green when his magic stopped leaking. She felt raw power radiating from him instead and checked on the other letting them merge with their cores for another twenty minutes.

"Alright, everyone please slowly stand up and follow the warm down stretches Mr Aleksander will do." She said and everyone did what she said and slowly stretched their stiff muscles with some soft groans. "Ten points to each house, now it's time for your next lesson so off you go."

Everyone walked out the class the boys putting on their shirts and put on their robes. Lily looked after Harry as he was the last one out and she noticed he didn't have a shirt on underneath but looked at her desk confused when she felt something land on her hand.

Dear Lily

I know that you sent me to them so I could have a normal childhood and I appreciate it, you just sent me to the wrong people.

You son,

Harry James Aleksander

PS: Teach Eric some manners or I will punch him every time he insults me or my friends.

Lily smiled at the note before hugging it to her heart with happy tears running down her face.

"G- g- g- good afternoon s-s students, today we w- will be learning th- th- the Lumos charm which i- I'm sure will be an ill- illuminating experience." Quirrell stuttered as the class gathered around him as he stood next to a crawl space in the wall. "Beyond th- this wall is the L- Lumos Spell b- b- book, Mr A- Aleksander, would y- you care to fetch it for us? There a- are challenges wh- wh- which you m- m- must overcome."

"Alright sir." Harry said walking forward and he crawled on his stomach through the hole and ended up in a hallway lit by only torches.

Harry slowly walked forwards his wand in hand as he looked around and jumped slightly at the sound of laughter to his left as he entered a wide open space. Spinning around he was met by the image of two imps about to throw booger balls at him but were stopped when he used Flipendo on them.

Harry looked around and saw two cages which he banished the two imps into while making the lids fall down and a spinning Hogwarts shield appear floating in front of his face.

"Th- that Mr A- Aleksander is a ch- ch- challenge shield, if you collect all t- ten you will recive fu- fu- fu- full marks." Quirrell's voice sounded all around Harry who grabbed the shield and put it in his pocket.

Harry continued on his way cutting down a few banners, collecting more shields, fighting more imps and specters after he collected the book. Harry made it out and had to dive through the crawl space to escape from a Fire Crab which had apparently taken a liking to burning him.

"I hate Fire Crabs." Harry said breathing heavily as he stood up and clutched the book tightly to his chest.

"W- well done Mr Aleksander, t- t- twenty points to S- S- S- Souran and take the h- h- highest mark, a d- d- d- distinction." Quirrell said taking the book from Harry who cleaned the soot off his robes. "Now, i- I want you all t- to learn the Lu- Lu- Lumos charm and practice i- it before the next le- lesson, you can come a- and ask for t- t- the book anytime."

The class began learning the charm with a few asking Harry to show it to them and he helped a few who he saw was struggling.

"Hey Harry." Eric said carefully as he walked up to his brother without Neville while Harry and Hermione were walking towards the Dungeons. "I wanted to say I'm very sorry about what happened on the train, I was angry with our parents that they sent you away and when I heard you were coming to Hogwarts I just wanted to find you."

"I'm really sorry I called you that Hermione, I just wanted to see my brother again so badly I went overboard." He said apologizing further but the two waved it off.

"It's alright Eric, our parents thought they were doing what was best for the both of us but I'm here now." Harry said and the two briefly embraced. "We'll see you later, we're going to have lunch with Snape and have a discussion about potions, he wants to know what ingredients can be substituted with other ones."

Eric grimaced at the thought of spending lunch with Snape and they went their separate ways.

"Ah Mr Aleksander, Miss Granger." Snape said as he opened the door after the two had knocked. "Come in, I hope you don't mind but I invited another student who showed prowess such as you."

"Hi I'm Ronald Weasley." The redheaded boy they saw earlier that day said holding his hand out to shake as he sat at a table where there were sandwiches and four goblets full of juice.

"Harry Aleksander and this is my sister Hermione Granger." Harry said as they both shook the boys hand before sitting at the table in their own seats.

They immediately launched into a complicated and complex as well as very lengthy discussion about potions, ingredients properties and Harry along with Hermione made an idea of how to create more Bezoars.

"Many Wizards have tried to recreate the reaction a stone has with the acids of a goat's stomach Aleksander." Snape said drinking wide from his goblet. "None have been successful."

"But sir, they try to recreate the acids but what if instead of recreating the acids we take it from goats as a type of harvesting." Hermione said making Snape's choke on his wine while Ron and the professor looked wide eyed at her. "We could store the acids in large cauldrons and drop hundreds of stone in them but a metal net is at the bottom so we can pulled the Bezoars up without draining the acids."

"That is… brilliant Miss Granger." Snape said gob smacked while Ron was still stuck in his stupor.

"We can start a business actually, with all the potions variations we know we could sell them to the public and mostly the Auror's." Harry said a second before the bell rang signaling for the three students to go to their next class, Transfiguration.

"Sorry we're late Professor." Harry said as he, Ron and Hermione ran into the class out of breath, well Ron was out of breath and the class looked at them like they were mental for talking to a cat sitting on the desk. "We were with Professor Snape talking about ingredient substitution and were got caught up."

The cat nodded to them and they took a whole table to themselves at the front before the class was treated to the cat jumping off the desk and turning into Professor McGonagall.

"Transfiguration is a very difficult and precise branch of magic and I will not tolerate the slightest bit of foolhardy behavior." She said sternly and launched into a half hour long lecture on the different branches of the subject and the trio in front took rapid and very detailed notes.

She had them turn a matchstick into a needle but had Ron, Hermione and Harry turning the needle into a katana like the ones Harry and Hermione had which slightly miffed the teacher. The three easily turned their respective needles into Katana's, though the blade was dulled like McGonagall instructed them and they each got fifty points each for their respective houses as the lesson finished.
