Chapter 12: Austin & Adrian/Neville Longbottom.

What people didn't know is that Neville could've been in Harry's place. What Harry knew was just that. Again, he's thankful it was him and not Neville. Or he wouldn't have met Bill.
How could he gave known?! You ask. Think about it. His master travels the multiverse. He must've been to a dimension of a similar world and told Harry. Not all, but a bit.

"Longbottom!" Harry hissed.
The boy awoke from his slumber to meet a dangerous looking young boy and his equally dangerous looking sidekick, servant?
"It's Neville!" Neville whisper-screamed.
"Well, Neville. Wake the fuck up."
"Language. Fine, I'm awake. Where are we going? Don't tell me it's St. Mungo's." Neville groaned.
"Alright. I won't." Harry opened a portal. Austin bridal-style carried Neville though the portal.

Once they were in, Harry inhaled deeply. "It's such a peaceful night. Let's walk." Harry's eyes seemed to sparkle in the moonlight.
Neville, still in his night robes, bounded into the night with the suave looking duo.
"Austin. Tell me your life story." Harry commanded.

"As you wish, I am a pureblooded wizard, of the Ravenclaw house. Same as my brother. Our childhood wasn't really interesting, until Voldemort's forces came along. It's all too blurry to tell, but my brother nudged me in my back. 'Take the damned offer!' He hissed. Not like I had a choice."

"I said yes, but my brother refused. He wasn't killed, a mystery that still baffles me today he was tortured into insanity. Around the same time this couple named Frank and Alice...Longbottom..." Austin turned towards Neville, the child kept his gaze low. "...were being tortured by Bellatrix Lestrange."

"When Voldemort fell Lucius Malfoy escaped. My brother and I weren't so lucky."
Harry smiled jovially, "well, not to worry. He won't be a problem long."

Neville didn't remember when they got to St. Mungo's, or when he walked into his parent's room and sat across his sleeping mother.
"Is your brother okay?" Neville never took his gaze away, but still asked the man.
"Harry's taking to him. Weird kid." Austin snickered. "Made me his new slave, and he's strong as hell."
"Yeah." Neville droned.
"You okay?"
"Somewhat."
"You sure?" Austin nudged the child.

Neville kept his eyes on his mother sleeping. After a few long minutes of silence Austin made to stand.

"I'm going to bloody kill her."
Austin paused. "Huh?" He turned towards the boy to see his eyes practically vibrating in anger.
"Even if it means making drastic decisions. How did you become his slave again?"

Hello~! It's been a while hasn't it? I almost broke my leg by tripping down some stairs...concrete stairs. I'm surprised I'm still alive. This chapter ended in three cliff hangers.

Why did Neville ask Austin how he became Harry's new slave?!

What did insane Adrian say to Harry?!

And why did Austin not go into the room with Harry?!

All this and more will be answered. Next chapter.
