“Close enough to the truth,” said Harry. “But when you’re talking the wizard world the scale will never go close to anything Muggle tyrants could pull off. convey God for small favors. Dumbledore had the right idea though. While he was getting perfect marks in all of his classes while he was achieving prefect status and getting the professors to go all over him. Riddle was doing some dark stuff behind the scenes. Fashioning himself a small legion of other dark wizards. Learning about his past and about his connection to both the Muggle and Wizarding world. Gave himself a new label: Lord Voldemort.”
“Dumbledore in the meanwhile founded a group called the Order of the Phoenix to contend with Voldemort and his Death Eaters. My parents were in the first version of that group along with the others in that photograph.” At this he tapped on the picture causing James and Sirius to jump back in surprise. “So was Susan’s uncle. Neville’s parents. Hagrid. Molly’s brothers… when you get right down to it you two will learn over time that everyone seems to be related to everyone else in one way or another in the magic world. There aren’t a lot of us to go around so we end up with one hell of a family tree even before adding in all of the Muggle-borns wizards and half-blood marriages.”
“In a way yeah,” said Harry recalling dipping his head into the Pensieve all of those years ago. “Anyway. Severus begged both Voldemort and Dumbledore to protect Lily and despite his beat wishes myself and my father. Dumbledore did what he could. He hid my parents using the same spell that I have around this house the Fidelius Charm. They made Sirius my godfather the Secret Keeper. But Sirius had his doubts. He realized that anyone who knew anything about Dad would experience that he was candidate number one with Lupin as number two. So he talked Dad into giving the duty to Peter Pettigrew one of the other members of the Order. That one right there.” He again tapped his finger on the picture and Peter flinched at the contact.
“It’s going to sound strange no matter how I describe it,” Harry tried to explain. “Hell. Dumbledore told it to me for years but I still can’t really put it into words the how the what anything desire that. All that I can say is that my Mum died to protect me. Because she did that. I was… given protection. A spell that probably doesn’t have a name. ‘Love’ is too vague of a term but that’s what Dumbledore called it. My Mum loved me she gave me her love to protect me and it was the one thing that Voldemort feared that he had never had.”
“So you all know the next ten years,” he continued wishing to leave it at that. They knew as well as he did the type of treatment that he had received at their hands. Why remind them of it why tell Susan about it when the worst of the lot was now out of their lives and they were doing their best to reconcile? “Of my life at least. In the meantime after my parents were killed. Sirius was falsely accused of a mass murder that was committed by Peter and was shipped to Azkaban the wizard prison. Frank and Alice Longbottom. Neville’s parents were tortured into insanity by some Death Eaters who didn’t know that they were beaten. And I lived with you three and Voldemort disappeared from the map.
“…But in the ten years after he had been defeated,” Harry continued. “the remains of Voldemort were trying to find a way to come back to full power. He was doing what he could. Drinking unicorn blood mostly which gives a person immortality but not really. But he found another way when he ran into our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in Albania. Voldemort possessed him and learned about an item called the Philosopher’s Stone which could be used to make an elixir for true immortality. He learned that Dumbledore had it and that it was being hidden at Hogwarts.
“He was a decent sort,” said Harry. “A little short-tempered sometimes. Twelve years in Azkaban will do that to anyone. Plus after he escaped he spent a lot of measure here where he grew up. And he hated his family and his family hated him so he hated this place. He was the only Black to never get into Slytherin and they thought of it as a kind of betrayal. So he was never really the happy-go-lucky type around me that I guess he was growing up. But still. I loved him. He’s probably the closest I’ll ever get to having my Dad back in my life.”
“No he’s not,” said Harry. “At the end of our fourth year. Voldemort came approve to full power. There was a contest held at our school that year called the Tri-Wizard Tournament. Our educate along with two others joined together for the year and one student from each school competed in three different events in order to win the Tri-Wizard Championship. Fleur Weasley then Fleur Delacour was one. Viktor Krum the one you two met at the reception the foreign bloke talking to Gwenog and Charlie was another. Cedric Diggory a Hogwarts student from Susan’s house was a third. And I was the fourth.”
“That’s why the called him Mad-Eye,” said Harry. “Anyway this Death Eater rigged the tournament to get me into it with the ultimate goal of getting me to Voldemort. So there were four Champions from the three schools. In the end. Cedric and I won it at the same time and were both teleported to Peter and Voldemort. Peter killed Cedric and then used my daub the bones of Tom Riddle. Sr. and his own hand in a ceremony to bring Voldemort back to his old self. More than his old self since the protections that my Mum gave me didn’t work after that point. At least not the same way as it had before.”
Well another good story weaving from you.. But I think you have forgotten this tiny bit of info from HBP. (I think,) Merope is not a squib but a becharm.. "I think you are forgetting," said Dumbledore. "that Merope was a witch. I do not believe that her magical powers appeared to their best advantage when she was being terrorized by her father. Once Marvolo and Morfin were safely in Azkaban once she was alone and free for the first time in her life then. I am sure she was able to give full rein to her abilities and to plot her escape from the desperate life she had led for eighteen years."(page 213. Chapter 10. HBP US Edition)
