PROLOGUE
If one had to describe the Dursleys' eldest son Harry with just one word, it would be without any doubt: "normal". If one was given the opportunity to say more, one would also add: usual; regular and common to the mix. It wasn't an insult nor a praise; it was just a fact of life. For anyone who has ever come in to contact with him, Harry Dursley was the archetype of a simple high school boy. He was the last person someone would expect to be involved in anything out of the ordinary or strange.
At the age of 17, Harry Dursley was a senior at a local public high school while his cousin Dudley attended a private one just a few blocks down.
Appearance-wise, everything about Harry was "normal". He was of average height, with messy black hair, and a pair of admittedly enchanting green eyes. His wardrobe of choice consisted of hoodies, jeans and his favorite pair of sneakers. He loved chocolate, hated broccoli and babysat for pocket money. At school, he wasn't the most popular guy around, nor was he a total nobody. He had some friends, even some enemies and spent his free time hanging out with his two best mates, Jake Tennant and Samantha Corrinford.
Harry was an ok student; he did average in class, participated in organized sports when he was forced to, and loved to procrastinate. His aunt and uncle didn't abuse him nor did they spoil him. He got his fair share of chores to do along with his cousin Dudley and had a fairly decent sized room to sleep in. Nothing about him ever stood out; he was just another forgettable face in the crowd.
And Harry was very content with that. Sure it can get boring sometimes, but he liked the idea of safety and predictability that came with his life. He had a decent future in front of him and if he doesn't do anything stupid to mess it up, he will graduate with his class, then go off to university. He will probably end up with a degree in something like business and will work for his uncle's company after he's done. It may not be his lifelong dream to work for Grunnings, but it would be a regular source of income and will give him the resources necessary to start his own family.
He sometimes wondered how he ended up with best mates who were so vocally against his life philosophy.
Samantha Corriford was the epitome of a high school queen. She was the captain of the cheerleading squad, secretary of the student council and participated in so many afterschool activities that her social calendar was almost always full during the school year. Between classes and her extracurricular, Sam had little few time to do anything else. Strangely enough, with what little free time she has, instead of spending time with her fellow cheerleaders and giggle over cute boys, she spent it with Harry and Jake.
Jake, on the other hand, was the exact opposite of Samantha. He was the youngest of a family of four and was the only one who didn't get a scholarship to some fancy boarding school in Scotland. Jake had been resentful for most of first grade, spending the majority of his time frowning and making a nuisance of himself, but Harry had managed to tame him somewhat by being the first person to try to be his friend. And since then, they were best mates in all the sense of the word.
But what really differentiated Harry from the two of his friends was that they went out of the way to escape normality. Being called normal for Sam was the biggest insult anyone could throw at her. And Jake was a rebel that had a thing against conformity. They wanted to stand out but Harry didn't. It wasn't in his nature; he just wanted to be Harry.
Anyway, the point was, Harry Dursley was normal; so normal that people tends to forget his name even after he had told them multiple times; he was so normal that teachers tends to forget his face if he doesn't speak up from time to time; he was so normal that no one, not even him, would ever picture himself as the hero in any kind of story.
But what Harry didn't know was that Fate has reserved him an extraordinary destiny just for him; a destiny involving magic and fantasy and all those things one only read in books. How could he know when he had always believed his parents had perished in a car accident when he was a few days old? How could he know that even at that moment, there was a society of magic wielder desperately searching for him, believing he would be the one to end the Dark Lord that had been terrorizing their world for the past decade?
Harry Dursley was normal...
...until he suddenly wasn't anymore.
He blamed Tony Stark.
