This the first post in our Halloween 2022 count down. Hope you enjoy it!

*Just some editing*

July

A cool July night hungover number four Privet drive, a small light shined in the corner room of the smallest bedroom. Bent over a book Harry looked over the pages reading each word that were on the page. It was history this time, history of magical Europe, he found the book in the shop in the discarded book bin and finally was able to read it. Hermione and Ron both argued with him every time he tried to read anything other than the course work. Turning to the next page Harry paused, Royal family of Britain was the title, underneath were photos of the family. Looking at them Harry couldn't help but feel a familiarity to them. He continued through the sections of the book saying how Britain has seemed to forget all about the crown. Throughout that night Harry followed their path and history till the Royals were gone leaving a forgotten throne and kingdom.

When morning came the next day Harry quickly went about his chores wanting to continue his research. There was something so familiar with everything yet nothing made sense. By midday Harry finally got time in his room as his relatives left for the rest of the day and week. He would have the house to himself. Sitting at his desk he opened a large book called Oldest Family's, another book he found in the book bin. In the last section of the book was about the Potter Family, it seemed around the time of the Royals disappearance under very strange circumstances a half century later Harry's great-grandfather first appeared in Great Britain.

If he could find something about his family the longing would lessen, for Harry always wanted a family. Having that small connection to his family long dead was a blessing to Harry. Taking out his quill he decided only one person who potentially has answers would be Sirius and so he sent Hedwig off that afternoon hoping to get some questions answered.

Harry was reading over the section again, with this publication being written outside of Britain it opened Harry's eyes. Someone did this. Someone purposely wanted to degrade magic in Britain and Europe. There was so much knowledge out there and Europe is still in their world. He then heard Hedwig's call Harry went over to the open window taking the parchment from her as she went off to catch dinner Harry went over to his bed disappointment sprang through him.

..I wouldn't worry about that boring old stuff... came Sirius' response ..I would focus more on your summer studies... Dumbledore says it's not safe to be sending letters when you get here. Sighing Harry set the letter down, getting ready for bed and turning off his light for the night.

July and August

A week has officially gone by to Harry's utter dismay, he sat on the old swings in the park down the street. It was an odd day off for him as the Dursley's just came back with the clouds overcast. He couldn't wait till he left for Grimauld place. He suddenly froze up as ice chills went through his body filling his arms with goosebumps. They were here. Why would they leave Azkaban?

Harry stood up looking around for any sign of Dementors flying around. Spotting movement Harry bolted towards the bridge. The water froze quickly Harry ducked under the bridge spotting Dudley who was taunting him for running, Dudley then slipped on now frozen ice knocking him out cold. Harry turned around quickly, his wand pointing towards the two Dementors. Expecto Patronum he shouted, sending them out of the bridge. He turned back to Dudley, healing his head and took him back to Privet Drive. Vernon would be very angry with him.

And Harry was right, Vernon was livid. Once they got to the house Dudley started to wake, Petunia squealed in shock and worry over Dudley. Then a little after that two Owls showed up one saying he was expelled from Hogwarts and the second one was that they have recanted it pending a trial.

So now Harry doesn't get to go out of his room except when Vernon unlocks the door. Harry sat looking out the small window he had ten days till the trial and he hadn't heard anything on how or when he would be picked up.

Deciding to actually get somewhere Harry sent a letter to Gringotts seeking advice. When Harry got a response back just two hours later he was shocked.

Heir Potter, We at Gringotts have been trying to reach you since your eleventh birthday. If agreeable and able come to the branch tomorrow. We will see that your questions are answered as well as our business finished... Harry, seeing this quickly agreed finally someone will answer his questions.

With the meeting set Harry started to pack his stuff, there was no way he was coming back. It was at this time when Harry was bringing his trunk down did the Dursleys shouted out they were leaving. Harry sighed as he found his way to London.

Quickly Harry decided to make a small sandwich before heading out to call the The knight Bus. Pulling out he was about to call for it when a pop was heard, looking around Harry spotted Mr. Weasley and Ron coming up to his house.

"Oh Harry you're all packed, it seems we got here in enough time."

Harry narrowed his eyes at them, "in time for what?"

"Dumbledore sent us before you left for Gringotts. It's not safe Harry for you to be out."

"Ya mate, Voldemort is out there. You can come with us to headquarters. Hermione and I have been waiting for you."

Before Harry could argue anymore about his appointment Mr. Weasley grabbed his trunk and both Ron and Harry's arm and apparated out. When they arrived at Grimauld place Ron took Harry to the room they will share apparently having no choice in the matter. Once alone he sent a letter to Gringotts saying he was stopped from coming and would find another way.

Harry then took to wondering the place. Hiding in a corner he notices everyone walking by a set of stairs. Getting the chance Harry walked up to them, finding the family wing of the house. An unused two floors wing that only Harry seems to see. A smile spread to his face, he knew exactly where he would be.

August

A couple days later Dumbledore came, leaving Harry furious. He goes saying Harry should stay at Grimauld place, and talks to Harry and says he should focus on school and family. At the end Dumbledore then took Hedwig with him and Harry was pissed.

Finding out that only he can enter the family wing, not even Sirius could. And the library of course. Since this finds Harry was glass your Creature answers to him only. Harry then had the house elf collect all black items and put in the attic. With the safe place Harry then studies the laws and makes a plan for his trial.

The trial, 12th of August, Mr. Weasley takes him there. After being hurried along Harry stands up for himself, listing the laws the government neglected and degrees that were pushed to the side. By the power of the leaders Harry is emancipated and was with his cousin as well it was in defense. He gets off scotch free and then sues the minister for slander in the press with Potter and Black that hold majority shares with paper. As he was leaving Harry on a slight glance noticed an empty seat with a crown as well.

The next day after the trial Harry gets his Hogwarts letter. Surprisingly Harry gets named Prefect and Captain. While he from his letter says that Parvati Patil is the other Prefect for his year.

Ron and Hermione were floored as they were promised the spots. With them nagging and complaining Harry gets very annoyed with friends and seeks shelter in the library. Where not even Sirius can get in being disowned by his own parents, the owners of the Grimaud Place.

Time to buy supplies came quickly. Harry was approached by Mrs. Weasley who says she's going to use his trust vault and buy Harry's things. He gets mad and asks how she got his key. Her answer was from Dumbledore. Harry is shocked he tells her no and demands for the key back back. Reluctantly she returns it to harry. That night Harry then writes a letter sending Pig to Gringotts. He stated that he can't go to Diagon Alley and that he will keep them updated.

Harry then decided to go Hogwarts without his stuff making the others at Headquarters freak out. But he instead orders his stuff for the year.

September

September 1st had arrived, Harry all packed and ready, shrinks his trunk and goes to Kings crossing running late due to the Weasley's. Hermione griped about Harry not having supplies under the impression he has no school supplies. Ron was complaining about how he changed his schedule to and tested into runes and arithmancy and creatures leaving Ron alone in his class.

October

September went by and Quidditch trails came and went. Harry had practices and got a few players including Ron on the team. They had a month to prepare for as November is the first game. Harry and many other students in the time had decided that Umbridge is a horrible teacher. And wasn't even going to teach them anything. Speaking up Harry learned was horrible as Harry got a few detentions and they were an absolute bore.

With his homework and free time Harry continued with his studies of family lines As well as conversing with Gringotts through letters. Anyone who caught Harry always stopped him and kept him busy by adding more stress to his workload. The list came to be training, quidditch, School, prefect. But the kicker of it all is that he does it all well and enjoys it even with little sleep.

What little sleep he got was dreams, short flashes of a crown and a throne calling. Writing everything down he then added it to his research and got the goblins to help when he could despite his friends still trying to stop him.

November

The Quidditch match Gryffindor versus Slytherin had finally come, it was a close tie but Harry got the snitch in the end.

There wasn't much other than the game that happened. However, Umbridge's reign picks up with decrease after decrease and Dumbledore doing nothing to stop her. Harry continues to study family lines, and the crown in secret. Though one day Hermione approaches Harry about a defense group, Harry originally declines. He is done getting in trouble with umbrage. When she wouldn't stop he showed Hermione his hand. Scared but it was an illusion that Harry put on to make her stop pestering. He does eventually cave and have a study group as he called it as it was for education only.

December

He got a vision of Voldemort from Voldemort at the Ministry of Magic. Harry in a split decision decides to leave to see what he wants.

While leaving his friends talk about not going and that it's not safe. Harry turned to them saying Either with me or against. He leaves them hand heads taking a thestral and breaks into the ministry, late at night. Feeling a pull he suddenly got a feeling, he will find the truth tonight.

While following the pull of something Harry runs into Death Eaters. Shocked, the leader tried to talk but Harry, from all the stories, bolts sending spells behind them to stop them from following.

Seeing how he finally lost them he continued to follow the pull trying to end that longing he has from the dream. Suddenly he stops at a door. It was the courtroom where his trial was held. He opened the doors going into the room. The pulling ceased but the longing wasn't. It was the crown.

Walking up to it he was a landing or two away from it when the door opened again the Order was there with his friends. But they weren't alone. The Death Eaters were also there, not coming after him. They were blocking them from him. It was a bizarre sight.

Not seeing them coming for him Harry stepped up to the front of the throne taking the crown into his hands. Ignoring the shouting he put it on in his head. Which resulted in a burst of energy, a shock wave through the room and the whole of Europe. Flashes of memories filled Harry and everyone's head. The longing finally ended, Harry found what was lost; magic was claimed.

Everything was backwards confused, Voldemort lost his snakelike appearance. Tom Riddle was assigned his parents' protectors and one of Harry's godfathers. His family was the royals and he was the heir. Everything fit in place, the lies Dumbledore put out, the lies the ministry told. The history books disappearing. A ghost teaching history. Someone didn't want the Royals to return.

Those some ones found themselves on a trip to Azkaban.

January

It was a new year with new changes. The wizarding world was set free with the truth, it was right again. I am glad to say with the help from Tom I set set everything back to what it was and adding new placements. The advisors were given titles back. New jobs were created. New protections was in place now. I am King from a long line of kings before me. I am at peace now knowing and shearing the truth of my family. It was a fast change with more to come. Yes I would say the world is on the right path once again growing and thriving. Signed King Harrison James Potter II
