Here's the first chapter and I hope you like it. I decided to write a story where Harry is loved by the Dursleys. Please read and review love Angel x
Petunia sat on the couch crying clutching the box to her chest. It was huddled this way that Vernon found her. "It is done Vernon they have died and I am sure Harry will be left with us here. These stones light up to show who is alive and dead and it shows that he is alive. Do you remember what Lily asked me to do when she gave me this box?" she asked Vernon still crying. He too was shedding a few tears. "I do indeed and I promise you my sweet flower that once it is done and he is here with us we will do all she has asked of us!" he said rubbing soothing circles on her back.
Flashback:
"James please sit down a moment we need to talk!" said Lily smiling at him. "Yes my Lily flower what is it?" he asked her when she looked somber. "I have placed a magical tracking and summoning in Peters arm. I want him to be able to be summoned here should we come under attack by any one. I didn't tell him I did it as I didn't want to scare him away from being our secret keeper. I trust Peter with my life I just want to be extra sure. Please give me a magical vow you won't tell Peter or anyone what I've done and this does include Sirius and Remus as well!" she said seriously.
It was then that James looked at his wife in a new light. He could completely see why she had done it even if he seriously didn't agree with it. "I James Charlus Potter do hereby swear on my magic and life that I will tell no one of the tracking and summoning devices on Peter so mote it be!" he said as he glowed golden to show it had taken affect. "Now James stay here with Harry and stay safe I must go out now for a few hours but I will be back. I need to make amends with Petunia if it's the last thing I do!" she said as he agreed to let her go but come back in exactly five hours time as being out of the house any longer was a serious issue.
She aparated whilst disillusioned to number 4 Privet Drive holding the box and checking that no one was looking made herself visible once again. She rang the doorbell which Petunia answered with a slight sneer. Lily burst into floods of tears and threw herself at Petunia who looked shocked the core. "Tuney I am so very sorry for everything. I love you with all my heart and I don't care that you hate me I've always looked up to you. Please I need to speak to you about my son Harry" she said as she came into the living room where Vernon was holding Dudley. A look from Petunia silenced any protest he may have made.
"Lily my dear sister I love you too. I always have although I've resented you for being different and special unlike me! Mum and dad always reminded me that although they loved me I'd never be as special as you before they passed" she said as Vernon nodded as if to agree with all she was saying. "In our world Tuney there is an evil wizard the most evil of them all called Lord Voldermort or as he is known in normal terms Tom Marvolo Riddle. He has heard a prophecy or basically a prediction about his future death and believes it pertains to us and our son. We have had no choice but to go into hiding in a safe magically protected house. However I fear he may still find and kill us should someone betray our location to him. I need you to promise me that should he ever succeed in killing James and I but Harry should survive that you will love him as your own son" she said as Petunia now cried with her.
"I love you Lily and I don't want you to go! Oh Vernon! Of course we will do all in our care to mind and love your son as though he were our own Dudders. What do you need us to do in the instance that this should happen?" she asked shakily tears spilling from her eyes.
"This box has three magical life gem stones on it which currently glow red. When the colour goes from any one of these stones it means one of us has died. The smallest stone represents Harry. Should it remain alight and ours go out you will know that he will be alive and as predicted he will be delivered to you by Albus Dumbledore I am guessing. Albus Dumbledore means well in all he does and says however sometimes does things he genuinely believes are for the greater good which do more harm then good. In this box you will find a blue coloured sack which has four potion vials inside it. Two of these are green and two are clear. You will find inside a timer which will time for a minute and a half. You are to feed Dudley and Harry the green potion and set the timer. After the timer has ended to show you that the time is up waste no time in pouring the clear vial into each of their mouths. It will and I repeat will save their lives. You must be prepared as after they drink the green potion things will get very scary but they need to get extremely scary in order to get better in the long run for everyone." Here she paused to see that Petunia had understood everything and once she made Petunia swear to do as she had asked she moved on.
"Next you will see a black pouch in here. This pouch has been magically designed to remain the same size while holding everything of importance no matter what size it is. In here you will find a library of books of which Harry is to have and read. This includes journals of both myself and James. There will be diaries from school explaining all about school and how it was for us. In these journals he will find out how to do spells and things and how everything at school works. In this sack also we will contain a lot of money which only he can access but use for everyone he chooses to. It will be magical money from the Potter family vault which can be used by anyone Harry decides to buy things such as clothes, toys, broomsticks for when he's older and books and so on for school. At eleven years old he'll get a letter like me and will have to get potions ingredients, a wand, some robes, a pet and a trunk and so on like I did in my youth. Inside the black pouch there will be a silver bowl which is shiny and this is called a pensive. This item allows him to view memories of us which are inside the red case which comes out with the pensive. Each memory is numbered and dated. Each memory is a white fluid which must be poured into the bowl and then looked at by placing ones head into the bowl. You will then go into the memory you are viewing so you can experience it in surround sound and 3D. Harry cannot use a wand outside of school as this will have the magical trace on it and so should he use this in front of you he will be caught for breaking the law. However he can use wandless magic unaffected from a young age and we advise you to read up on what it is and teach him to the best of your ability how to use it" she paused here again.
"Now in order to get these things out he had to tap on the sack with his finger and say clearly give me the and then the item he wants. Alternatively he can use the summoning charm of accio and then whatever the item is afterwards. Now in the third sack which is red in colour you will find a summoning stone with my magical signature on it. You are to use this to summon him to you by pressing this button here and keep here Mr Peter Brian Pettigrew. The stone will ensure he can't leave and don't be surprised id he turns into a rat as the stone will keep him rooted to the spot as the Aurors come for him. While he is here you are to make him drink this clear substance here. As he will be frozen he'll have no choice but to tell everyone the truth about what he has done. This bottle will destroy itself two minutes after use so you cannot be caught. I trust Peter but not as much as anyone else and should we die he will be responsible for it and I want justice. You are to activate it which will alert the Aurors or magical police that he is here and they will come and take him away. I have encoded in this summoning stone a memory which they are to view. It will explain that he was our secret keeper and that should this be used it will mean he is a death eater and betrayed us to Tom Riddle. I will be using a magical vow to prove that this memory is indeed genuine."
She was looking at Vernon and Petunia who were looking at her with tears in their eyes as they understood all they had to do in the future. Petunia saw the utter love Lily had for her in her heart after all this time and she was only sorry she had been so petty years ago. You only to get to live once and she had wasted all this time she could have had with her sister. She would regret it for the rest of her life however at least now they had made amends and peace and so on. Vernon too was happy to see the sisters reunite as he knew how secretly depressed Petunia had always been without her sister in her life.
"Next I need you to do the hardest thing I have ever asked of anyone. I need you to please both sign this contract which from now on makes you Harry's legal guardian in the muggle or as you call it normal world and the magical world. When people in the muggle or non magical world sign off letters to say their children can go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry they are allowing it's principal Albus Dumbledore to have full magical guardianship of their children. This means he can make decisions of every kind in their place for their children. Dumbledore is a good friend to me however I will not allow him to control Harry in this way. I am concerned he will start to say something about the greater good as he usually does and harm Harry unintentionally. He may do nothing but this is just in case. Before Harry leaves for school give him the red potion in the final golden coloured sack here. There are two of these. One for him and one for Dudley. This means that should anyone try to poison our son or indeed block his core or natural talents they will be unsuccessful in doing so. Having said that the persons magic will always tell them they have been successful at cutting of his natural talents and core when it has indeed not. This also includes protection from a loyalty charm and a legillimens charm which enables someone to read your mind and evade your thoughts whether you want them to or not. Please yourself and Vernon are to now drink these optimum health potions of phoenix tears as it will cure any ailment you have making you extremely healthy for all of your lives. And after that drink the red potion each so you too may not be harmed."
Petunia looked at Vernon and they both drank the sweet tasting clear liquid in a few gulps. They glowed white for a moment before Vernon jumped. "Wow I feel so healthy it's unbelievable. My old college back injury is all gone. Now let's drink this red one as I want to be as safe as I can! Thank you so much Lily. I know we've not seen eye to eye because of your daft husband but I thank you so much for caring enough about us to protect us from all harm" he said thankfully downing the red potion with Petunia. It tasted awful and made them both extremely queasy for a moment before it settled down.
"You will feel a slight vibration coming from the direction of a person should they try to harm you in any way. They will not know that you are aware of what they have planned to do. Petunia please hand this wand to Dudley. I just want to see something. Don't worry he can't harm anyone with it!" she instructed as petunia gave it to him. He grabbed it in his meaty little fist giggling slightly and began to wave it about some gold and red sparks flying from it's end.
"What does this mean?" asked Petunia taking it back off him and handing it back to Lily. "This means he will be just like Harry and will get a letter at age eleven like Harry. Now it's against the law in our world for anyone to talk about or tell anyone who isn't in their immediate family or someone in the muggle world about magic existing. Having said that you will find a rune which is a pattern which dissolves into the skin in the same bag as the red potion which you are to give the children when they are two years old. It will sink into their arm and automatically prevent them from telling anyone they are not supposed to about it. Now be aware I have not told James I have done any of this as he will not fully support me and frankly the welfare of my son matters more to me then the hurt feelings of a few of his friends. In the bottom of the box you will find our wills. One has been placed in the bank however the original is here so should anyone try to seal it off they will not be able to. It will appear that they have sealed it off but really they haven't. Now I must go as I have been gone long enough. Take good care of my son and remember I'll love you always both of you!" she said hugging and kissing them both before going into their kitchen and leaving for home immediately.
When she arrived she found James there cooing over Harry and had been happier then ever that she had secured their sons futures above all else. They fell asleep peacefully that night.
End flashback.
True as Lily had said Albus Dumbledore left Harry Potter on the doorstep of Number four Privet Drive smirking. His plans were all coming to fruition. They would abuse Harry for sure and he would then come in at age eleven and save Harry from this abuse. He would be his malleable weapon thanking him for freeing him from his prison for a while before he was prepared for his eventual death. Dumbledore would see to it that the young boy died when the time was right in order to destroy Voldermort once and for all. He would gain credit for ridding the world of another dark lord. Should Harry survive he'd have to kill him saying he was going dark and he had no choice. He'd be everyone's hero again. They found Harry on the doorstep and brought him inside to their home. They gave him a nice warm bottle snuggled him by the fire and finally put him to bed in his new crib. They both grabbed the stone pressing the button where Peter was summoned to in the form of a rat in which he turned into a human once more and stayed like that. He was fed the clear liquid which he automatically swallowed once his nose and mouth had been covered. The bottle destroyed itself and the Aurors arrived ten minutes later.
"Who are you ma'am and what's going on here?" said the lead Auror in charge. "Good morning. My name is Mrs Petunia Dursley and sister of Lily Marie Potter nee Evans. She asked me to press this button should this jewel show her to be dead to us. She explained it would go dark if they had died. She said by pressing this stone it would capture their secret keeper Mr Peter Brian Pettigrew. I don't know what this means but she said that if he turned up here it would mean he betrayed them to Voldermort or Tom Marvolo Riddle whoever that is. So here he is!" she said seriously. "Well thank you ma'am. You're sister was the smartest witch of her age and you Mr Pettigrew are supposed to be dead after Sirius Orion Black killed you. Did you reveal the Potters whereabouts to the dark lord?"
"I did and I loved it. I had no choice of course but anything to do my part!"
"Was Sirius Orion Black the secret keeper to the Potters?"
"He was initially but as a prank to you all we changed it to me a few weeks ago. It really fooled you all!" he said laughing evilly and disgusting everyone present.
"Did you frame Sirius Orion Black for killing you and those muggles?"
"I did indeed. He's a disgrace to his family name. I mean he's not even dark. I cut off my own toe and changed into my rat animagus and blew up the street killing all those muggles. I believed that some well earned time in Azkaban would make Sirius as dark as his mother wants him to be. He's not even a true black the scum bag!" he shouted shocking them all.
"Mr Peter Brian Pettigrew you are coming to me to the Ministry and we will have Mr Sirius Orion Black released at once. Minister Bagnold will be interested to hear all you have to say!" he said as he told the Dursley's he'd be back to let them know how things went before informing them they'd done the right thing.
They settled into their breakfast while the Aurors took Peter away barging into the Ministers office where she heard everything straight from Peter Pettigrew's mouth. Barty Crouch Senior was arrested and sent through the veil himself along with his son for trying to have Sirius Orion Black put in jail anyway despite serious evidence he was innocent. Sirius was released and told where Harry was and that under strict instructions from the late Mrs Potter he was safest there. He was told he could visit there once a week using a portkey which would be undetectable by anyone. He agreed and Remus Lupin was called in. They both witnessed Peter having his soul sucked out by a group of dementors before his carcass was thrown through the veil. Remus was shocked but agreed it was best he was dead after what he'd tried to do to everyone including Sirius.
The Aurors returned later on that day. "Ma'am we have just come to inform you that Peter Brian Pettigrew was killed for his crimes this morning. Justice has been done. Now we need to just look at the document which Lily left you stating that you were to be Harry Potter here's guardian as we have a copy of it on file in our archives and I want to check it's validity!" he said as she took out the document showing it to him. "Yes this all seems to be in order. This young boy here killed the dark lord and saved our nation so he is a hero in our world. God bless his soul!" he said kissing Harry's cheek and leaving tears of joy streaming down his face.
As time wore on both boys learned to play together sharing all their toys and a lovely bedroom. Soon they were both two years old and Petunia and Vernon closed the curtains getting out the four potions. They fed both boys the two potions at the same time and turned over the timer while unstopping the other clear vials. Petunia let out a shriek as both boys died clearly before her. As the timer ended she stuffed the clear vials in both boys mouths and watched in shock as a black substance seeped from Harry's scar screaming and making Harry cry really hardly as he and Dudley both came back to life. The black substance screamed and wailed as it eventually formed a bubble shape outside the scar contained in a clear bubble before exploding and dying out. When they looked at Harry once again he had no scar and was now smiling happily at them all as was Dudley who had since calmed down. Next came the runes to prevent them telling anyone about their world which worked a treat. It would be a fun time they would have with both boys that's one sure thing. Thank you lily for saving my son! I will look after your son as my own I love you! She vowed in her head and heart as she looked to the sky in silence.
