Chapter 1 – The Walking Dead?
It was a regular day for both the Dixon brothers, who were both hunting a deer. They watched the animal from afar, the younger – Daryl – was aiming his crossbow getting ready to fire the arrow straight into the animal's eye, a quick and painless kill.
He was just about to fire when a black spot raced in, clutching the soon-to- be-dead-deer tightly in its teeth promptly killing the animal. Both Dixons sighed in annoyance before they turned around, heading back the way they came not realising the wolf that had just came in was the younger teen they had saved a while ago.
"Are you just going to leave it here?" The elder – Merle – jumped and turned around to see a beautiful male with long raven hair and torn clothes. The boy – Harry as they would later learn – sighed at the look of shock on Merle's face and shrugged his shoulders, "I thought we were already through with the whole shocked, 'Are you a werewolf' thing?"
Daryl at the teen in front of him for a little bit, sure there were some slight changes but it was still the same kid they had saved more than a year ago. He walked up to the kid that was standing in front of him and held out his hand, "Daryl Dixon, this is my brother Merle Dixon."
The teen took the hand shaking it, "Harry, I don't really use my last name but if you really want it I can tell you. Anyway, are you guys going to leave the animal here or are you going to take it with you?"
"You don't want it?" Merle asked, coming out of his stupor and shaking the young man's hand before staring at the dead animal that was still close by.
"I've had my fill today, I caught your scent earlier and decided to see what you were up to." Harry said while shaking his head at the elder Dixon's question.
Both brothers nodded as they moved to pick up the deer, they started heading back to their home once they had gotten the animal situated on Merle's shoulder. Merle walked in front, leading the way to the house they lived, Daryl stood at the back watching the animagus for several minutes before following his brother into the woods.
"Aren't you coming?" Daryl looked up, surprised when he heard Merle ask the same question he wanted to ask the teen, said boy's face mirrored Daryl's as he stared at the elder Dixon before nodding his head and following both brothers back to their home.
The walk was mostly silent, you could only hear the footsteps of both he brothers and the occasional sound of Harry sniffing at the air, smelling for any other animal that could be used for food. Merle wondered why the teen walked so quietly, it was as if the raven had been in a war, it was that or the other reason Merle could think of, which was Harry being good at hide and seek.
Passing by a flower bush made Harry bend down and inspect it, he stared at it for a while, mumbling what the Dixons thought was profanities but was really the medical properties of the plant in front of him.
"…Feverfew." He finished off, he pulled off the woven bracelet that was attached to his hand and pressed it into the bush. Both Daryl stared at him confused while his brother stared at Harry as if he should be in a mental hospital, that is until the bush disappeared making the brown woven bracelet gain some interesting designs that were the same shade as the leaves on the plant.
"What was that plant?" Daryl asked as soon as they started walking again, Harry glanced at him he then stared straight ahead as he answered the elder male.
"Feverfew, it helps with migraines…" The teens mind was supplying every other thing that the plant could do, both in medicine and out however the raven didn't think the strapping young man near him would be interested in it like Harry was.
Daryl only hummed in response, the walk suddenly became silent again, leaving all the men to their own thoughts.
The small group arrived the small rundown house that was known as the Dixon home, the raven teen inspected it when they arrived, there was a small smile on his face. The only house he had really been in was Ron's and the Dursley's, two houses which were completely different. This house though, to Harry, was a place that seem to fit exactly in the middle.
The outside walls of the house held animal skin, no doubt from hunting, it also held different heads of animals caught. From what the young man could see, the inside was hardly any different, a small smile slipped on his face as he thought how the Dursley's would reacted to this house, it obviously wouldn't suit their normal tastes.
When Harry thought about it though, he as a wolf would love to live in a place with his kills displayed for all that came over, in other words his wolf self could just be redirecting his thoughts and making it seem like the perfect home. The raven sighed, his human self still thought the home was very… Well, it was very homely.
The 16 (A/N: Harry was 14 turning 15 when he first met the Dixons, it has been a year later) year old snarled when thought back to Ron and his home, how could someone be so jealous and devise a plan like that? Two years ago before Harry had left for America he had found out that Ron, Ginny and Hermione had been stealing from him. When he went back to the bank to find out what was going on, the goblins told him a bunch of bullshit his supposed friends did, they told him about the blocks on his magic and who else had stolen from his accounts.
He got those blocks off, for some reason he felt so much lighter as if he could fly around without a broom stick. He found out that he had an ancient type of magic that allowed him to talk to animals hence why he could talk to snakes.
When his anger finally dimmed again, Harry had asked the goblins if they could get all his money back plus interest and to not let any of the people that had accessed it be able to again.
"Harry?" A hand suddenly appeared in front of his face, the hand went up and down obviously trying to wake the younger man out of whatever stupor he put himself in. The raven blinked and shook his head, smiling at Daryl, who happened to be the one in front of him.
"Yeah?" He asked, still smiling. He wasn't in the Wizarding world anymore, he didn't need to think about those people that betrayed him, he was here and he was never happier.
"Do you want to come inside? I know it's not grea-" Harry cut the older man off before he got to finish his sentence.
"Are you kidding? It's bloody brilliant!"
The brunette stared at the raven with a dumb look on his face before he started chuckling, being confused Harry questioned him, "What?"
"Your accent, it's pretty cool." Harry blushed but smiled at the hunter.
"Don't you mean it's bloody brilliant?!" Merle exclaimed from inside the house, the two men outside as well as the one inside started laugh. Daryl and Harry, while laughing, walked into the house.
A few hours later, the group was sitting on the green broken couches eating deer, vegetables and mushrooms all were supplied by Harry, who was currently smiling at the brothers antics.
He was about to take another bite of his food before he caught a peculiar scent, it smelled rotten and it reeked of death. Harry knew that whatever it was, it wasn't game. He rushed out to the front porch and stared off into the distance, watching, waiting for something to change in the area surrounding them.
In the corner of his eye he noticed a bush rustling, he turned his to watch that plant, what came out several seconds shocked Harry right down to his magical core. The limping figure was an ugly sick green colour, it's eyes were popped out of its head and just barely hanging from fleshy strings.
From the looks of it the being used to be a females, '24-29 years old' Harry's mind supplied as his eyes continued to examine the woman. Her arms had noticeable bite marks that went all the way down to the bone, her hair was oily and seemed as a lot of it had been pulled out forcibly.
His inner wolf howled at him, warning him of the dangers that this being seemed to present fort to him, his mind trailed to any and all information on one particular subject, 'epidemics'.
Harry also thought back to any zombie movie he had watched, it would seem this walker acted as most did on the TV, it was attracted to sound and smell. 'If that's the case, then it can only be killed with its brains…'
Wandlessly and wordlessly, Harry sent an AK at the limping figure. The green light went through its head, leaving nothing but the dead figure lying on the ground, this time the female was actually dead.
"What was that?" Harry jumped as he turned around to see both the brothers behind him, they both stood tensely, frowns evident on their faces.
"That, my friends was the walking dead." Harry supplied before rushing around the place, gathering things one would need for survival. The brothers looked at each other both shocked then they too rushed around their home picking non-perishable food, weapons, jackets and what was left over from their medical supplies.
Just as they threw everything into Daryl's truck the lights in the house flickered off, leaving the home dark and eerily quiet as the three men drove off, towards a place where they would meet new members and be one of a group.
