Prologue

It was July 31st, 1991. A figure sat on a rooftop, fingering a white envelope. The figure glared at the letter in his hand.

"My Hogwarts letter," the figure muttered as he continued to finger the letter in his hand.

"(What are you going to do about it?)" a silver snake asked as it slithered next to the boy.

"(I don't know)," the figure answered as he stood up," I honestly didn't think that the school owl would be able to find me."

"(You are in England)," the snake pointed out.

"(That's a good point)," the figure replied, stretching his body. He then turned his head to see the rising sun.

"(It would be good to learn magic)," the figure said.

"(But then you will be forced to go back to them)," the snake pointed out. The boy frowned as he thought about this.

"(What do you think I should do?)" the figure asked. The snake slithered up Harry's leg to his shoulder.

"(It is your decision)," the snake answered," (Anywhere you go, I will follow.)"

"(Thanks)," the figure responded as he watched the sunrise.

Flashback

In a mansion, there stood a lonely boy. He glared at a birthday party in front of him. It was his twin brother's birthday. Everyone was celebrating his birthday. Unknown to the boy, tears streamed down his face as he watched his father, mother, brother, and sister once again forget about him.

"Master," the boy heard a voice say behind him," You're crying again." The boy looked surprised before wiping off the tears.

"Thanks," the boy replied, turning around to see a house elf.

"Of course, Master," the house elf responded. The boy walked away from the scene.

"Today's the day," the boy stated. The house elf looked at the boy in surprise.

"Are you sure, Master?" the house elf asked. The boy nodded his head.

"For years, they have neglected me," the boy replied as he walked up a flight of stairs with the house elf following him. The boy then slammed open a door before entering.

"If they don't want me," the boy stated," Then, I will leave."

"But Master," the house elf responded," How will you survive?" The boy turned his head, smirking.

"I have your book, don't I," the boy replied, showing off a worn-out book.

"But that can't be enough, Master," the house elf pointed out," A book can only teach you so much." The boy shrugged as he walked over to his closet.

"I managed to master my wandless magic and apparation," the boy responded as he pulled out a black hoodie. He slipped it on before turning to the house elf. He noticed the tears, falling down the elf's face.

"Don't cry, Tinky," the boy smiled as he walked over to the house elf.

"B-B-B-But Master," the house elf cried as she wiped her face.

"This is goodbye," the boy stated," Tell the others my thanks." The house elf nodded her head.

"TINKY," the two of them heard someone shout. The boy looked at the house elf.

"Do your duty," the boy said. The house elf nodded her head.

"Good luck, Master," the house elf stated before disappearing. The boy then frowned. He looked around at the room before leaving and coming the door behind him. He made his way downstairs and looked at the birthday once more. He saw the happy faces on everyone's faces. He clenched his fists in anger before turning away. He then walked out of the front door. He walked to the front yard before turning his head around to the mansion.

"This is goodbye," the boy muttered before disappearing from the front yard.

Flashback End

"So it's been two years since that day," the figure muttered.

"(Have you made your decision?)" the snake asked.

"(Yeah)," the figure answered as he walked over to the edge of the building. Looking at the envelope in his hand, the figure stood silent.

"(I wonder if they miss me)," the figure muttered.

"(If they did, it would be too late)," the snake replied.

"(True)," the figure agreed as he let go of the envelope.

"(So it's been six months since I hatched you from that egg, Tom)," the figure stated, turning around.

"(Yes)," the snake known as Tom replied. The two then disappeared. The letter slowly fell to the ground. In golden ink, three words could be seen written on it:
