Harry Potter: Son of Hades

Chapter 10

Next Day

At 10 in the morning all of us are waiting in the living room, where the fireplace is, for the Notts, clearly not knowing when they will arrive, I had only told Theo to come today and not when.

A few minutes later the fireplace flares up and Theo appears in the room followed by a man in his late forties, maybe, with a similar appearance to Theo, except for his eyes, instead of the clear blue eyes of Theo, his father had brown eyes.

???: Lucius, Narcisa. My son told me that there was something that you wanted to tell me.

Lucius: Yes, it's true, Elliot, we wanted to tell you something about the Dark Lord.

At this, I see Theo tensing up and looking at me, so I smile reassuringly at him, and Theo relaxes.

Elliot: What do you want to talk about, and do you think it's safe to say this in front of the children?

Narcisa: It is okay, they already know.

She says referring to me and Draco.

I see Mr. Nott nod and wait for Mr. Malfoy or Narcisa to speak.

Lucius: You see Elliot, yesterday I found out something truly horrifying about the Dark Lord.

Elliot: What about?

Lucius: He made Horrocruxes, not only one, but six!

At this, Mr. Nott and Theo look truly horrified, it seems that Theo already know about Horrocruxes.

Theo looks at me for confirmation, I suppose that to know if this is what I was talking about, so I nod at him.

Elliot: Is this true?

Narcisa: Yes, my godson here was one of them, but someone took it out of him and destroyed.

She says pointing at me and then Mr. Nott's gaze falls on me.

Elliot: And who is this?

Lucius: Before we tell you we must know if you are going to continue to work for the Dark Lord or not?

Elliot: Of course, I am not. Any sane Lord of a Noble House will leave the Dark Lord's side once they know about the Horrocruxes. What are you going to do?

Lucius: I will work as a spy for Amelia Bones. If you want too, I am going to see her this afternoon.

Elliot: I think I will do it too.

After Mr. Nott says this, Theo looks at me with a grateful look in his eyes.

Elliot: Now, who is he?

Hadrian: I am Hadrian Potter-Evans, heir of the Potter and Black Houses, pleasure to meet you, Lord Nott.

At this, Mr. Nott looked taken aback, maybe for the same reason as most of the people to which I said my name.

Elliot: So, you are Potter, you look very different as the rumors.

Theo: Father, that's because Potter has never met Dumbledore.

Elliot: You already knew about this Theodore?

Theo: Yes, I met him yesterday and he told me that.

Mr. Nott turns to me with an indecipherable expression.

Elliot: So, he has never met you and he has been lying about your appearance? The only thing that seems remotely close is your green eyes, except that you have a silver circle in them. You do not even have the scar that Dumbledore claims to make you the chosen one.

Hadrian: Yes, he also lies about my name. For some reason he tells everybody that my name is Harry James Potter but is Hadrian Potter-Evans. Also, I did have the scar, but after I got the Horrocrux in me removed the scar disappeared too.
