31 July 1991

Hadrian was sleeping peacefully in his room. On his birthday he let himself have a break and sleep for a little late. Slowly the gate to his room opened and someone wearing a black mask came inside. The person was holding a wand in his right hand and a kitchen knife in his left. Slowly he crept up to the bed where Harry was sleeping.

As he removed the blanket, in a split second a red light came his way and he was slammed to the wall and passed out. No sound came before or after the light.

After an hour or so, a certain dog came inside the room and saw the stranger stunned on the floor and the tween sleeping. He started barking loudly and licking his face. As soon as the tween grumbled and opened his eyes, the dog changed into a handsome man with stormy grey eyes.

Sirius - Good morning pup, I would say happy birthday but it seems like you have already got your present. Why would you stun him though? Kinky!!

Harry - shut up siri! Shouldn't you be worried about my age or so

Sirius - well you are a little young but who can blame when you live with a hunk like me. I think I should give you THE TALK

Harry - oh no thankyou very much. I already had that dreadful conversation with Madona, Sharptooth's wife

Sirius - A GOBLIN GAVE YOU THE TALK??? THAT'S HILARIOUS. You can't rob me off the details

Harry - You are definitely not getting anything from me. Anyways the man is really a gift, but not for me

Sirius - well I appreciate you going all the way for me but it's your birthday

Harry - would you get your mind off the gutter padfoot. He's an assassin who thought he could try when I was asleep. I guess I hit him with an overpowered stupefy, shouldn't have woken me up on my birthday

Sirius was gaping like a fish.

Sirius - so you hit him in the chest while you were supposedly asleep and then proceeded to fall asleep again?? How'd you even get your wand so fast?

Harry - it's not my fault, I only allow myself to sleep more than 6 hours on my birthday. And you are forgetting that I can do wandless magic

Sirius - soooo? The question still remains---

Harry was looking at him with a raised eyebrow

Sirius - right!!! You don't need a wand for wandless magic

Harry - finally, I thought I'd be here the whole day

Sirius - shut up you little munchkin

Harry - you realise that I'm 5 foot 10 right?

Sirius -you're still 4 inches shorter than me kid

Harry - (under his breathe) not for long

Their attention shifted to the corner where the stranger was groaning. Suddenly his eyes opened as if he just realised where he was. He came face to face with a fuming adult and a nonchalant child who sitting on his bed and brushing his hair. The adult walked towards him slowly like a predator ready to eat. He started going for his wand when a voice startled him, a voice so cold that shivers ran past his core. When he looked up, it was not the adult who spoke, but it was the child.

Harry - don't even try, if you even lift your finger to harm my godfather, you would be dead before you can blink

He didn't know what made him believe the child, but he stopped his efforts and raised his hands in surrender. The man who was supposedly the godfather of the child he had to kill, raised him by the collar.
