A/N: Yes my grammar is awful and I'm not gonna get much better at the moment. But if someone wants to beta this let me know. Yes this has been inspired but another story as I said in the summary. But I found more of the mentioned story on another site. But still hope you enjoy :) Disclaimer: All rights to respectful owners.

Harry loved his brother but other than looking similar the boys where nothing a like. Harry was very studious and focused. Where his brother Liam was a Qudditch obsessed practical joker. But never the less the boys loved each other and cared for one another no matter the differences. Harry brother was special tho he survived Voldemort killing curse. His brother revived a lighting scar because of this from tho now assumed vanquished Dark Lord. Harry had his mothers green eyes and father's black hair but Harry put a great deal into taming it with Sleek Easyies and hair gel. Where his brother was a miniature version of his father other than the scar. After a great deal of asking Harry had convinced his mother to fix his eye sight with a potion she developed. Combine it with her charms mastery as well as her potions mastery. Liam opted to keep his glasses however.

When the boys turned eight Harry had never stopped bugging his mum tell she finally relented into tutor Harry and Liam in magic. However Liam could not grasp much of it unlike Harry. Liam got repeatedly frustrated how his potions where never as good as Harry's or how he never could understand the theory as well as Harry. There was one thigh Liam was good at tho and that was flying. but when ever Liam went flying Harry was always in the manor library. Harry weren't ever big headed or over confident he just loved studying not to beat anyone or be the best for the drill or learning it self. Secretly he hoped to be a Ravenclaw and be with like minded people who l over learning. He never mentioned thie to his parents or god parents. Really how could be when they where all Gryffindors and one was the head of Gryffindor house. The head!

It was however a subdued Harry who woke up on September the first 1992 being awoken by his elf. As his brother had to get disguised for going to the Hogwarts Express and it was only fair if Liam had to be up so early so did Harry. Harry didn't mind but he would have rather slept but he decided to read a book. Pulling a book out his trunk at random he began to read and practice the wand movements for the Alohamora charm. But the time did events come for breakfast and eventually heading to the school train.

Harry and Liam got a compartment together and hopped back onto the perform today goodbye to their parents tell Christmas. It when the train had pulled out the station Liam friend Ron appeared. He didn't really notice Harry but greated Liam happily. Ron never really got over the ten back to back demolishings Harry gave the red headed boy at chess.

Harry did not really care and just kept his head buried in his book.

"I swear the brother of yours swear he'll be a Ravenclaw." Weasley said in a loud whisper.

"Now Ron there nothing wrong with being brainy. Also

it means Harry can help us with our homework with that big brain of his. Right Harry?" Liam asked and the read head looked excited .

"Maybe depends really." Harry said casually.

"What's that's supposed to mean your supposed to help your brother he's a hero!"

" Your point is? " Harry questioned.

"Your brother is a hero." Ron said taking like Harry was very dumb. Harry had enough quickly drawing his wand and making the red haired boy vowed Harry made his trunk feather light and left the compartment taking his trunk with him. Making sure he remembered his book as well.

Harry banged along the carriages surprisingly he found and empty enough compartment that just had a man in a purple turban. Harry knocked and entered.

"A-h y-y-oung m-a-an h-ow c-an I help you?"

"May I sit here sir my brother's friend is being a pain and if rather sit and read somewhere peaceful."

The professor nodded. "I'm p-professor Q-Quiral." Harry did not fail to notice the man's stutter seemed to be vanishing but made no comment.

"Harry Potter sir."

The Professor eyes widened at the mention of his name but he did not. " P-Potter if you well feel the need to talk to someone or somewhere quiet to read my office is open to you. I can understand how difficult it would be to have a famous brother and the bother I would bring you. But please keep that to your self your future head of house would prefer you come to them and just tell you to buck up. "

"Thank you sir I will be sure to remember that. Sir if I may ask what do you teach? "

"Defence against the Dark Arts. "

Harry's eyes widened in excitment. "Sir I been reading well ahead and I'm into some fourthy year material ideas wondering if there a possibility of private classes? "

The Professor smiled at him. "All tho they are not normally given to someone so young let alone a tall at Hogwarts." Harry's heart jumped a little. " let's test what you know on the way to Hogwarts then if you prove to me after a month of classes you are worthy I will. "

"Really sir! " Harry said excitedly.

The Professor nodded and smilled kindly at the boy. "But please Harry this must remain a mater that you tell no-one of if it goes ahead. The Headmaster would not like it if I'm teaching a first year subjects deemed to advanced."

" Of course sir. " Harry said not wanting to lose this opportunity for knowledge.

"Right then let's begin testing your knowledge. " The Professor said.

As the train pulled into Hogsmead station Quiral looked stunned. "I must say Mister Potter in very impressed flawless even. I don't think I need a month to test your ability in class. Let me think on it and I will let you know my decision after our first official class."

" Of course sir and thank you for believing in me. "

"Your quiet welcome Potter and off with you or you'll miss the other first years being taken to the castle." Harry nodded and said goodbye to Proffesor Quiral and hurried off. The first years as it transpired where shown the way to Hogwarts by the grounds proper Hagrid and taken to the impressive looking castle by boat. Harry barley broke up a a fight between his Brother, Weasley and a boy named Draco Malfoy. When they where waiting to be taken to the sorting.

Harry soon found him self in a stool and the aincent hat whispering in his ear. "Hmm interesting very interesting I suspected you to be a Gryffindor like your parents, my my Potter you like to make my job difficult. Hmm Hufflepuff is out your loyal and a hard worker but you strive to be the best. Your very cunning my, my Quiral sure does like does like you and he is a genius. Hmm not Gryffindor your to logical. Potter you could do great at Slytherin or Ravenclaw your in for a tough term regardless with who you are and who your brother is. So what do you want Slytherin or Ravenclaw?"

Harry thought about it and realised he was not one to pay attention to rumours of houses. It was a Slytherin thought of self preservation that made him make his final choice and the hat declared It to the hall. before assuring Harry his secrets won't be told to anyone. Then the hat of course called "Ravenclaw!" Harry made his way over to the table and sat down , having his hand shaken by a lot of people.

His brother's sorting was quicker but it seemed his brother was arguing with the hat. But it did pronounce him a Gryffindor. Harry heard whispers of. "No surprises there after all he vanquished You-Know-Who. " as well as. " I wonder why his brother with us tho. Must not be as brave as his brother. " Liam why did it always dome back to Liam. It never really bothered him before but Harry wanted to be something more than the brother of Liam Potter. Of course he was the one who'd replace his father as head of the Potter family one day that was at least something. "

It was a slightly dejected Harry who headed up to the Ravenclaw common room with the other first years. But at least he was the one who got the riddle right to enter the dooms. Luckily everyone had their own rooms so he'd have one place where he could be in peace. Harry unpacked quickly and was asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. Burns certain professor was nowhere near ready to sleep. As a black shadowy form floated out a trunk.

"My Lord I bring interesting news."

" What is this Quiral? "

"Potters older brother is a Ravenclaw I used light legilmency in the boy and it gave him the offer of that or Slytherin. He picked the house of Ravens in a sense of self preservation."

Voldemort chuckled. "How amusing and what of the boy?"

" the boy is remarkable he's already understanding some of a fourth year level. He struggling but if Hogwarts offered what a certain school offered He would certainly be at a third year level in all his classes. "

Voldemort thought on this. "Teach the boy be a friendly face guide him in the right way."

" My Lord should be pleased I already offered him private classes. "

"Good very good my friend. Now I have a big request of you my friend allow me to share your body with brief spells of control. I promise you my friend do not fail me and it won't kill you when we get the stone and I get my body back." Harry

"Of course my Lord." Without hesitating Voldemort absorbed into the Professor body he screamed out slightly and fell to the floor. But the pain subsided an now the Dark Lord was inside him.

"Now I can observe the boy my self I hope to see the potential you see in him your self."

" Of course Master " is all the man said and prepared for bed.

Harry's fist week at Hogwarts had not been to say very fun. Sure all his teachers liked and thought he was a brilliant student but he could be so much more. When ever he had free time he was in the library studying. He tried to approach a bushy haired Gryffindor girl but she snapped saying she wernt gonna do his home work for him and to leave him alone. He was hoping to make a friend by he didn't need a friend like that.

To say why Harry had hated this week would take hours so he'd summarise it into his letter home. Of how everyone thinks he's help us of his brother and must not even know Liam had private training and Harry just wouldn't be able to keep up. Or how Harry must be jealous of his little brother. Or with constant pestering about his brother. And when people where nice they only wanted him to help them with home work. Honestly how could Ravenclaws be behind on homework in their first week. But at least today he 'd have lessons with Quiral a double period with the Slytherin's.

As Harry expected the class was boring and it confirmed Harry's theory the stutter was an act. But Harry had no clue why. As the class ended and people began leaving Quiral spoke up. "P-potter a w-word." Many of the class snickered thinking Harry was gonna get yelled at. When the last person had left Quiral locked the door with a wave of his wand .

"So our lessons Harry I may call you Harry?"

" yes sir. "

"Thank you now Harry we can start your lessons twice a week. Starting tonight and Saturday night. If that is suitable to you."

" Of course sir what time? "

"Six o clock each night." He said.

"Thank you sir."

" Your welcome Harry now go get your lunch. " The man unlocked the door and Harry hurried off.

"So my Lord what do you think? " Quiral said after a few minutes.

"Oh the boy has great potential. He will make a valuable death eater someday. Maybe even a inner circle candidate. He may not see it now but there greatness in I'm and he won't be to weak to seek it. you'll make sure of that or suffer my displeasure."

" Yes my Lord of course. " The man said respectfully.

Months had gone by since that first week in September and Christmas was coming. A lot had happened in this time. Harry and Liam had grown very far apart and Harry had still not made a friend. He guessed he could consider Quiral a friend and he was a teacher and it went the same.

His Brother had somehow got on the Qudditch team. He and Weasley somehow thought a troll he was really growing to hate Weasely. He had become friends with the bushy haired girl. Who's name was Hermione Granger. She was a pain to say the least. All his teacher still liked him but they still wouldn't give him extra lessons. Saying he was to young and what not. Shape however did say maybe next year when he's a second year. Shape liked Harry but he seemed to hate Liam.

Harry finally had enough. Tears pouring from his eyes he ran to Quiral's office.

"Harry we dont have a lesson today." There lessons had increased in the amount where the more improvement Harry showed. But then he caught sight of Harry's face. Then he quickly ushered Harry's into his office.

He gestured for Harry to sit down. When they had say and poured tea he asked Harry a question.

"Harry what ever hapend?" He asked concerned.

"I was in History of Magic listening. Well and people kept bugging me about helping them with homework due next period and when I refused they where snarky at me again. As well as saying it's no wonder I have no friends. Then I heard my whole year group in my house discussing me and saying similar things. As well as how I'm just a jealous boy who's brother hates him. Just because Liam knew I'd tell at him for the drill incident. That why he was reluctant to come. I just finally had enough and it all became to much I can put of there before they saw me and had no idea where to go. Flitwick is okay but he's like the other professor unwilling to do anything. The only reason I didn't curse the lot of them was I did not want other teachers to know about the lessons and make them stop. I hate it here at Hogwarts my parents and god parents told me amazing stories of the fun they had here but I just hate it! "

"Well Harry thank you for not cursing students. But Harry the solution is simple you leave Hogwarts."

"What sir what good would that do running away!"

"You wouldn't be running you would be studying at a much better school for you and your talents a school where you can advance to up years for individual classes. It's a school for students with true potential just like you."

" What School is this sir? "

"Durmstrang."

Harry gasped. " But sir is that not a school of dark magic? "

"Harry remember what I told you. Magic is magic and there nothing else. If you want greatness this would be best for you. Harry you just need to be strong enough and brave to make the decision. I'm sure we could compose a letter together." He then slipped a paper to Harry after digging around in a filing cabinet.

Harry looked at it. It was something comparing the pros and cons of Dermstrang. "Why do you have this sir?" Harry questioned.

" Lets say I seen you develop and knew you'd need somewhere more suited to you. I'd hate to lose my greatest student but it be for the best for you. I'm sure we could keep this quiet tell you at least get a response from them. I have your transcript here I was able to assess it when Flitwick was down in the village. "

"It seems like your trying to get rid of me sir." Harry joked.

" Yes Harry I am but not for dislike for you. But your to good for Hogwarts Harry. You will soon get board and even more frustrated here. Dermstrang Will allow you to become great. I could see you easily getting into third year classes for everything. "

"Sir?"

" Yes Harry? "

"Can we compose that letter now?"

" Of course Harry. "

The wrote and wrote for a while and we wrote quiet a lot tell they had a very professional looking letter commposed.

Dear Highmaster Karkaroff

My name is Harry James Potter heir to the house Potter. Iv been studying at Hogwarts this last term but have found my hand highly disappointed by it. I was told great stories of this school but they are highly inaccurate. I am very far ahead of my year mates years ahead even. Not to sound arrogant sir.

But I have heard great stories of your school. As well as the superiority of Dermstrang Institute to Hogwarts. to be honest I agree with that statement. With the way students can advance faster, as well as the way to not mollcodle your students. I also approve of your views of the Dark Arts of how magic is just magic. Of how it's all about intent. I'd be fully comitted to my studies and excel beyond my current ability.

I have inclosed my academic transcript with this letter. My academic reference Professor Quiral will also be contacting you as well. I p?ease request you direct all your questions about me to him. I'd much rather Hogwarts not know of my intentions tell I'm gone. That is if you accept me to your fine institution.

Thank you for taking your time to even read my letter.

- Harry James Potter

Quiral then charmed it to German.

"There that should give you another point in your favour. Now as students are always required to speak German I shall be teaching you german. With the language spell and potion.

" Thank you sire. " Harry said.

"Quiet all right. Once your accepted to Dermstrang I'm sure your parents will be easily enough to convince. Now here drink this it's the language potion and then I'll combine it with the language potion and you will be fluent in an hour or a week maximum. "

It did not even surprise Harry now that he had the potion. Harry quickly downed the strawberry tasting potion.

It turned out Harry was on the quick learn side of things. Asking as someone was speaking it to him and he was reading it.

It was late when Harry left the office Harry ate with the Professor in his office. But when Harry was far off and the door locked Quiral spoke.

"Well my Lord what do you think?"

"Very well done my friend. With him going to Dermstrang it will drive a wedge between him and his family. They won't like it but they won't stop him. Potter will make a fine inner circle member some day." ?

"You think he will get in and join you some day?"

" Yes and yes. Now be silent I need rest. "

"Yes my Lord."

It was the last day of term and Harry came to visit Quiral before he left.

"Well Harry this looks like goodbye for now. I heard personally from the Highmaster and I looks like you'll be getting in. But keep quiet for now. Oh and keep an eye out for a present from me for Christmas for your eyes only. " Harry nodded at this.

"Thank you sir and be sure to look out for mine." He did not have one for Quira not expecting anything but he would

"You did not need to Harry."

"I know sir. " Harry smirked.

"Well Harry this won't be goodbye but see you soon. " He held out his hand and Harry shook it.

"Yes sir see you soon." Harry then turned from the office and left.

When in a compartment alone he did have one last look at the castle wondering if he's ever see it again.

He arrived at Kings Cross and hurried off the train. He found his mother and waited around with her for his brother to arrive. He did not speak much of Hogwarts just shrugging.

He ignored his Brother and his friends and eventually left with his mother and brother. In his room Harry was startled by the tapping at his window. A massive snow owl hopped in and allowed Harry to take the letter. Harry opened the letter.

Dear Mister Potter

We are pleased to inform you that we have accepted you into Dermstrang Institute. Please reply to this letter by the 22nd of December and arrive at your Ministry for testing on the 27th of December then you will be able to use the included Portkey which will activate on the 28th of December at 10am your local time.

Please find inclosed a equipment and book list.

We look forward welcome you to our school.

- Igor Karkaroff

Harry beamed and wrote a polite acceptance letter. Then sent it off with the delivering owl. His Parents would have no choice but to agree when they heard that Harry had already accepted his place.

He went down stairs and found his parents alone in the drawing room.

"Harry Its awfully late you should be in bed." Lilly said kindly.

"Mum, Dad iv got something to show you and before you argue I already said yes and you won't change my mind. "

"Harry you have not signed a Marriage contract have you!" Lilly exclaimed. Harry shook his head.

"No not that." He placed the letter with them.

His Parents faces paled. "Harry why did you do this!" Lily exclaimed.

he explained the whole story and with the looks of shocks and horror on his parents faces they truly did not want to believe Harry story, but they knew Harry never lies.

"Fine." James said.

"James you can't be seriously hurt! " Lily exclaimed.

"Lilly it's to late one Harry took the place. Secondly the teachers have to make unbreakable oaths to not harm students seriously or order other students to. But Harry you need to know German. "

" I have learnt it Dad. " Harry said.

"Oh well that's good. I will take you to your tests. But I'm get the mirror from Sirius and if your ever in trouble you will contact me straight away. Also I'm be sending Albus to have a brief chat with your new Highmaster. " this all sounded like it won't open for discussion.

"Yes dad." Harry said.

" Now don't tell Liam tell after Christmas. " James said and Harry nodded.

After Christmas Liam did not take the news well and was refuring to talk to Harry. Weasley was determined that Harry was destined to become a Dark Wizard.

Harry got into fourth year charms, potions, transfiguration, herbologey, history of magic and third year dark arts and first year spell creation as he's never studied it before. That was one of the presents he's been sent by Quiral. The other was a book that should help him in Dark Arts class. He did not use everything he knew in that test with his dad watching. He did not want his dad getting suspicious. He kn

ew that's when it started getting more dark. even tho he lied to his parents successfully. No need to have them worry them worry over nothing.

So came the day of Harry's departure. Harry in his sweltering furs. His Parents hugging him as well as Lily kissing him goodbye. When Harry was standing upright with his trunk and portkey letter.

Liam yelled at him "I don't get why you have to go, I hate you you!" Liam bellowed.

Before Harry could respond the familiar hook behind the naval sensation ocured and Harry was spining. It was not like normal tho he was s

spring in a blue vortex. Tell he landed in a snowy and cold port village. With thump stumbling slightly. He strightened up and was greeted by a man with yellowing teeth. Harry then realised this man was his Highmaster.
