Dumbledore POV

My plan has changed ever so slightly due to the fact that he was taken away from his relatives. He is still being raised by muggles so I should have no problem wining over his trust and gaining control over him through the world of magic. Also my compulsions should still be in place.

I walk over to the book of students so that I can write his letter personally. I make sure to call him Harry Potter instead of his gross new muggle name and send it of by owl.

Time skip to when he gets the letter back

I am going through the paperwork on my desk when the owl I sent to Harry comes back with a letter in hand. I happily open it ready to see the acceptance to my control. I start to read the letter.

Dear Dumbledore,
I have received your letter. I will not be attending Hogwarts as I have no reason to. I have passed all of my newts so schooling is no longer needed. Also please if you must send me another letter refer to me as my proper name.
-Harlow James Potter Stewart

I crumble it up I fury after reading it. How can this have happened? Where did he get his magical knowledge? How did he reject me with the compulsions? I grumble angrily as I start to think of ways to get him back.

Harlow POV

After I sent off the letter I pack up the rest of my stuff before meeting my dad outside so we can head to catch the plane.

We rush to the airport to catch a plane to my homeland. As we settle into our seats I close my eyes and try not to think of my past in Britain.

Time skip

When we land my family rushes off to get our bags so we can set up fast and go out for my birthday stuff.

After we set up all of the tents we head to a pub to get our fish and chips. It was nice to have this food again. Fish and chips were about the only thing I missed about here. A comfort food from my home land. We talk while eating about our show plans for the next night.

After we finish eating we go for a walk as the sun sets. We walk into an ice cream parlor as it is a hot summer night before heading out and returning to the circus.

When we arrive at the circus all is silent until we get to the main tent. When we get in there the lights turn on and Everyone yells surprise.

They through a surprise birthday party for me. We eat cake and open presents. I got some new clothes, books and a new snake. The snake was an albino reticulated python. I introduce myself and ask their name. He said that his name is Henry. After we finish the party we all head off to bed. I introduce Henry to the others and then snuggle into my blanket and drift off to sleep.

When I wake up there is another owl with a letter. This letter was from gringots to the wizarding bank specifically the British branch.

I open it to see that they are reporting someone stealing from my accounts so I quickly get dressed and head out for breakfast. After breakfast I tell my dad that I am heading out and grab all of my snakes because they don't like being left alone. I follow Yumi's directions into digon ally.

I look up at the elegant marble building before entering. I greet the goblin in fluent goobledegoop before asking to be lead to my account manager.

After being lead to his office we talk about accounts and I take a blood test to see what accounts I have access to. The results of the blood test surprised me.
