A/N- Same old, Same old. I don't own Harry Potter

Review reply-

Millie072- I know normally Gringotts don't let anyone take the rings outside other than the heir, but I thought they would make a exception with Harry since, Bill is his future Brother in law and a Gringotts employee. And I changed that 'twin' part from the first chapter. Thanks for the review.

Harry looked up from the book he was reading when he heard the door to his compartment open. He saw one of the red heads he saw before standing on the door way.

"Can I sit here? other compartments are all full." Red head said pointing at the seat across from Harry. Harry nodded his head and went back to his book as the other boy sat down after putting his trunk on the rack overhead. He turned towards Harry and started introduce himself.

"So I'm Ron, Ron Weasley"

"I'm Harry" Harry answered after marking the page he was reading and placing the book on the seat next to him. he wanted to get to know his future brother in laws after all.

"So you like reading?"

"A little, not always but I read to understand what I don't understand and to learn about new things"

"Cool, So are you muggle born or..?"

"No But I was muggle raised and I didn't know that I was a wizard until I got my letter. Is that a problem?"

"Oh no, not at all just wanted to know." With that they continued to talk about school, lessons and mostly quidditch. Once Ron figured that Harry didn't know anything about quidditch he started to teach everything about quidditch. After few moments they fell into a comfortable silence and Harry thought about what Charlie said about Ron. He decided that he will continue be friends with Ron since he talked with him nicely even though he didn't know he was Harry Potter. Their silence was only broken by a boy looking for a toad and Harry went to help him find his pet. After finding him, they both went back to Harry's compartment and played what Ron called exploding snap.

After a few hours they changed into their Hogwarts robes and waited until the train arrive at the Hogsmeade station. Exactly at 6 O'clock in the evening they arrived at the Station and were escorted to the boats by Hagrid.

"Hello Harry! Hope yer Enjoyed the train ride"

"Yes Hagrid and Thank you for the owl. Her name is Hedwig." Harry said as he followed Hagrid to the boats. But before Hagrid could reply they arrived at the dock and he went to guide the first year to the boats.

After a boat ride and walk towards the castle they were welcomed by the Deputy headmistress and were ushered in to a chamber to the side of the great hall and were instructed to stay there until they were ready for the new comers. As they waited Harry heard some gasps from behind him he turned around to see ghosts coming towards they talking bout some on called peeves. One of the ghost's saw them and commented about hoping to see them in Hufflepuff and Professor McGonagall came to take them to the great hall.

The Great Hall was a fascinating sight. Thousands of candles were floating in the air and the ceiling looked like the night sky. Harry remembered reading about it in the Hogwarts; A History and heard a girl commenting about it. There was 4 long tables filled with students and the gold plates and goblets were glittering in the candle light. Harry looked at the Head table to see a old man with really long hair and a beard. 'Headmaster' Harry thought as he looked at the man. He had a grandfatherly smile and twinkling eyes, which Harry knew was to manipulate people to his side. He turned to see Professor McGonagall place a battered old hat on the stool in front of the Head table. Suddenly the Hat's seam opened to form a mouth and it started to sing.

"Oh, you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffis are true And unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
if you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means
To achieve their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!"

Everyone burst in to applause at the end of the Song. Professor McGonagall came with a Parchment and started to called out names.

"Abbot, Hannah!"

"HUFFLEPUFF"

"Bones, Susan!"

"HUFFLEPUFF"

"Boot, Terry!"

"RAVENCLAW"

Professor McGonagall continued to call out names and the sorting continued. Harry suddenly had a terrifying thought about not getting sorted and then getting sent back. He thought about what Charlie would say, He would be disappointed in him. He was so absorbed in his thoughts he nearly missed when his name was called.

"Potter, Harry!"

All at once people started to whisper to each other. Harry walked to the front and sat down on the stool. He saw people trying to look at him when the hat was placed upon his head. The hat fell past his eyes and blocked his view on the great hall. He heard a voice talking in his mind.

"hmm, Difficult. Very difficult. Plenty of courage, I see. Not a bad mind either. There's talent, A my goodness, yes - and a nice thirst to prove yourself, now that's interesting... So where shall I put you?"

"Umm isn't it your job to decide? " Harry thought back.

"Oh ho I know I know Slytherin would be great-"

"Please not Slytherin!"

"Not Slytherin?, Slytherin will help you to your greatness, but your have a heart of a lion, loyal, brave and a Lot of love to those who care about. You can do great things, and you WILL do it no matter which house you are, I'm sure about that..."

"So which house am I going to be?" harry asked hesitantly thinking that he won't be sorted.

"Ha ha Fear not Little Lord Gryffindor-Slytherin. I will sort you to..

"GRYFFINDOR"

Harry took off the hat and went to sit at the Gryffindor table where all the students of Gryffindor was cheering loudly. After the sorting Headmaster stood and said some gibberish words and the plates in front of him filled with food he quickly scooped some food and started to eat, listening as other Gryffindors around him talked.

"So You are Harry Potter?" Ron, who was siting in front of him asked with his mouth full of food. Harry nodded calmly at the question and continued to eat his filling in a much slower pace than Ron.

"Why didn't you tell me before? at the Train?"

"I didn't see a reason to tell you that I'm Harry Potter. If I did you would be asking me questions which I will be uncomfortable to answer. And as I said I grew up with muggles so I don't really know about magical world." Harry could tell that Ron was angry. But before Ron could reply Dumbledore stood to give the welcome speech. Harry listened to the speech and mentally noted to not to go near 3rd floor. After that all the students started to follow the prefects to their respective house common rooms. All Gryffindor first years followed Percy to their common room. Percy said the password and the painting opened to the common room which was giving off a warm,cozy and a homely feeling. Percy directed the students to the dorms and Harry followed rest of the boys to their dorm. After entering he saw all of their trunks was placed near a bed, Harry went up to his trunk and opened it to find his Pajamas and went for a shower. After the showering he went to sit on the bed and took out the journal Charlie gave. He turned it to the first page and started to write.

Char? You there?

Harry waited for few minutes and the massage disappeared.

Hey Harry How is your first day?

It was fun Char. I met your brother Ron and we talked and he taught me about quidditch and how to play exploding snap. Oh and I'm a GRYFFINDOR

Congrats champ, I'm Happy that you made friends with my brother but you don't have to be his friend just because he is my brother. okay?

Okay So how was your day Oh mighty Dragon Handler?

Well,My Raven, I would say that this Mighty Dragon Handler had a great day with his Dragons. And His day was made better since his Raven wrote to him.

Ah this raven is Happy his Dragon Handler had a good day and is now preening under his Dragon Handler's comment.

Haha Now Raven you need to go to sleep. You will have a long day tomorrow.

Okay Charlie bye. stay safe. Good night

Bye, I will Good night

Harry closed the journal and went under the blankets and fell asleep almost immediately.

Charlie was having a great day after arriving back at the dragon reserve. he checked on Harry a multiple time using the link, and found that he was oozing with joy. His friends at the reserve knew about Harry. After all he was visibly vibrating when he saw Harry's Snowy own came with a letter during summer. His boss was so close to sending him to the Scotland reserve then and there.

It was half past ten when he saw the journal glowing. He quickly grabbed it and read the massage and replied. he was greatly amused by Harry's Mighty Dragon Handler comment. After saying good night he also went to bed looking forward to next day.

Next few days Harry did his best to ignore the whispering and staring. He was getting annoyed with all of that. He talked with Charlie and that was the only thing that was keeping him from exploding on everyone. He manage befriend Nevill Longbottom, the boy he helped to find his toad. Charlie was happy that he made friend other than Ron, and he was even more happy knowing Nevill helped him with his nightmares since Charlie was not with him, as Nevill always helped Harry with his nightmares, Harry helped Nevill with his nervousness. After all the times Harry talked with Charlie, his confidence level had sky rocketed. So he thought it was good to do the same for Nevill. They could be seen together all the time and Ron also managed to befriend Harry and Nevill and was with them all the time.

Sometimes Ron got jealous of Harry, but after the first few times he watched Harry's reaction to all the attention and understood that Harry didn't enjoy all the fame. Ron knew what his mother and Headmaster was planning for Harry, he wasn't sure whether to help them or take Harry's side and help him. But his decision was made for him after few days. It all started on the free period they had. They were walking towards the court yard and Malfoy came towards them and started to throw his usual insults. Harry calmly listened to Malfoy's insults towards him.

"And you have to no class hanging out with Weasleys." That was the limit to Harry's Patience. He can listen to all the insults to him but, one word against Weasleys he won't hesitate to defend them. Not only because his soulmate is a Weasley, but one of his best friends is also a Weasley.

"Shut up Malfoy. Weasleys are 1000 times better than you will ever be."

"Come on everyone knows that Malfoys are better tan anyone."

"Well I'm not everyone, so NO I don't know that. But personally I think you are even beneath than squibs or muggle-borns. No wait, you are no better than a Muggle."

"How DARE you Insult Malfoys? Comparing us to filthy muggles? Wait till my father hear about this."

"Yeah Malfoy run to your father." With that Harry turned and walked back to the castle Nevill and Ron trailing behind him. And at that moment Ron made up his mind to be with Harry no matter what his mother said, he choose to be loyal to Harry.

Nevill also become loyal to Harry after their quidditch lesson, when Harry caught him before he fell to the ground. And Harry was scared to death thinking that he will be expelled for what he did. He felt worry coming from Charlie through the link. But after he was made the seeker of the the Gryffindor quidditch team he sent the memory to Charlie and got a warm feeling that he identified as Pride. And he was more than happy that Charlie was proud of him. But that didn't stop Charlie from scolding him that night through the two way journal for putting himself in danger. Even though he felt bad for making Charlie worry about him, he felt happy when Charlie scold him. Because that means Charlie cared about him, that he was worried enough to scold him. He fell asleep that day happy knowing Charlie cared for him.

Charlie was siting with his friends when he felt a Panic that was not his own wash over him. He got worried and went to his mindscape to check on Harry, once he got there he felt that Harry was afraid of something. And he got even more worried about what was going on. Suddenly Harry's emotions changed to relief and then Happiness. Just as Charlie was about to send confusion he received a memory from Harry. He watched as Harry get on his broom and felt his heart jump to his throat when Harry flew towards the falling boy in a dangerous speed. He watched as Harry caught the falling boy and landing with him. He continued to watch as Harry was escorted by Professor Mcgonagall and made him the Gryffindor seeker. He felt his worry getting replaced by pride and sent it through their link to Harry and Received Happiness from Harry.

That night he took the two way journal and started to write to Harry.

Harry! Are you there?

Hey Charlie

Goodness Harry Are you okay?

I'm okay Charlie, Don't worry. Nothing happened to me

I was So scared Harry watching you fly like that. It was impressive for a first time and I'm proud of you, But please Don't do Something like that again okay?

I won't Charlie, Sorry if I worried you.

You did worried me but I accept your apology, I was just worried that something would happen to you. What would have Happened if you fell off the broom? I don't know what I would do if that happened. I'm supposed to keep you safe. so Please be safe yeah?

Sorry Char I will be safe and won't do anything like that again.

Good. Now you must be tired go to sleep, we will talk again tomorrow.

Okay Char, Good night, Sweet Dreams

You too My Raven.

Albus Dumbledore always prided himself for being 10 steps ahead of anyone else. He planned to kill Grindelwald and after that he was made a hero. But with time people started forget him, He took Tom Riddle and made him Voldemort. When he heard that Prophecy about a child who can get rid of the Dark Lord, he sent the potters to hiding and made sure that the rat was to be the secret keeper. It was easy, few simple compulsion charms here and there, all went according to the plan. He wanted Voldemort to kill the brat. Because there can only be one person to defeat the Dark Lord and that must be him. All was well until that night. Potters were killed but somehow the child remained alive and destroyed the Dark Lord. He knew that the Dark lord was really gone for good, but he made sure to tell everyone that the dark lord would come back with time. So for the last 10 years he made plans for when Harry Potter join the Magical world. He made sure that the brat was abused so he can go and 'save' him from them. He sent Hagrid to help Harry knowing that the big oaf will be singing praises about him. He was looking forward to September 1st.

When September first arrived he was thrilled because he knew that his weapon will be coming to Hogwarts. So when he saw Harry Potter siting on the stool he barely concealed his excitement when he got sorted to Gryffindor. But over the next few days, he found himself disappointed. Harry was not what he expected, he was confident and not the meek shy boy he was hoping. He even helped with the Longbottom boy too. His plans was crumpling down right in front of him. He tried to use compulsion charms to make the boy curious about the 3rd floor, but they are not working on the boy. He tried get in to boys mind, but he seem to have occlumency shields around his mind. And that also set his plans back. Because now he had no way to know what the brat was thinking and to make it look like his scar is hurting, and that means he's not going to be curious about Quirinus Quirrell. he had planed make the imperious on Quirrell and do some transfiguration on the back of his head to make a Voldemort. But now all his plans are wasted. Well he will not give up, he will see about a way to kill the boy.

Severus Snape was not in a good mood. He had just heard Headmaster talking to himself about ways to kill the Potter boy. But he was not going to let that happen. he may not like potter's father but he still loved Lily like a sister. Old coot thinks that He loves Lily in a romantic way, but too bad he's too blinded from his damned twinkle. He made a promise to Lily that he will protect his son. He knew that the Dark Lord is totally gone from this world the minute the Dark Mark disappeared completely without a trace. Severus walked through the dungeons to his quarters quickly. He had plans to make, and a Boy to save.
