For the second time that day Harry was watching the countryside rushing by, but this time it was from the air and the journey was much louder, they were in a helicopter, the helicopter that Charteris hired was as small and private as possible, as Charteris was trying to avoid attracting the press attention as much as possible, personally Harry thought it would have been saver if he had driven in his car towards Scotland but he guess Charteris refusing immediately had something to do with security and protocol. Harry had sent his driver away and told him to tell Sirius that he will call him and explain everything once he met with the royal family.

the muggle-born driver nervously accepted Harry's order and drove as fast as he could back to London, Harry had convinced Sirius to install electricity and internet on Grimmauld place, Harry also convinced Sirius to allow the house to be seen by people, if they were going to be living among the aristocrat then their house should be accessible by muggles, of course, they divided the house in two-part one for the muggles for when Harry and Sirius have parties and the other for wizards, Harry also bought a very luxurious mansion in Wiltshire and Cambridge, seeing harry buying properties Sirius decided to invest in his own and decided to build a grandiose manor in Wilshire, Harry rolled his eyes at godfather habit of imitating him, his godfather ould be soo immature sometimes.

there were only four seats in the helicopter, Charteris keep taking glances at Harry whenever he thought Harry wasn't looking, Harry inwardly snorted at the man's not so subtle attempt at speaking at him, the man despite all his protocols was so obvious, I guess even he couldn't help it being curious about the new crown prince.

Harry could not believe that in a matter of minutes he acquires a new family worse the leaders and founders of an empire, even though he was not showing it deep down Harry was panicking, in a few hours, he will be meeting with the Queen of his country who also happened to be his new grandmother and his father who also happened to be a prince, a crown prince to the British crown.

Harry was broken out of his wild thought by Charteris;

''Your Highness we are arriving at Balmoral, over a few minutes you will be meeting the queen, there are certain protocols that you need to follow'' Charteris said with a serious look on his face, the man started to spew out rules after rules which frankly without knowing was making Harry more nervous than what he already was, Harry tune Charteris out, and proceed to watch in awe the nathering Balmoral castle, a castle that's been part of the British family properties for centuries, without knowing it Harry blurted out;

''I bet there are ghost in that place''

Charteris let out a laugh something that he hadn't done in front of the royal family members in ages;

with an amused look on his face he replied;

''There are indeed ghost stories about balmoral, some staff members have sworn to have experienced them but I haven't '' Charteris lied.

even he who's been working for the royal family for almost 20 years has experienced some haunting at Balmoral castle.

''We are beginning to descent in a minute sir'' Charteris added trying to change the subject.

the helicopter began to descend after a few minutes soon they were the touching ground, Harry closes his eyes and took a long breath in an attempt to calm his nerves who for some reason now shot to the roof.

''your highness, this way please'' Charteris said, extending his arm towards the back of the door, Harry got out of the Helicopter, once his yes lay on Balmoral he could now understand why this place is loved by the Royal family, the sense of calm and peace the place was emitting was incredible, and then he felt them, wards! Balmoral had wards placed on it and very strong wards!

the wards immediately latched onto Harry's magic, Harry gasps, he knew what the wards were inspecting him, judging him, see if he was worthy of being allowed in, the wards were testing him to see if he had evil intentions!

these were very ancient and unique wards, and the only ones who were known for warding places with wards like these were the Potters, indeed Harry did excessive research on the potters family, and what he encountered baffled him, to think one of the most prestigious and famous families like the Potters known for their warding ended up taking a mediocre job as Aurors, someone must have influenced the Potters to abandon such a noble profession, Harry was 100 % sure that it was Dumbledore, but Harry put that thought on the back burner, now he had ancient wards to convince that he was not evil.

meanwhile, Charteris turned and to look at Harry with concerned eyes, a bodyguard motion to him towards Harry, so he of crouse turned around to see what the bodyguards were on about, then he saw it, the crown prince had stopped following him, and was standing with his eyes closed, the nerves were probably getting to his highness Charteris thought, little did he knew that Harry was trying to convince very powerful ancient wards that he was not evil!

Harry concentrates his magic and allows the wards to judge him, and soon enough the wards retreated, Harry let out a sigh of relief, he almost ends up being torched by ancient powerful wards!

Harry took a deep breathe and continue to follow Charteris, who took a small back door, he came in a small porch, but Harry didn't pay attention not what was around him, his mind now focused on the encounter of his family members, his nerves where now in overdrive, Harry understood why they came in via the back door, it was probably to avoid the media that was camped out, outside the gate.

they finally entered a sitting room, everything looks ordinary except some dew expensive ornaments here and there, what attracted Harry was the portraits of the family members hanging all over the place, a particular picture caught his eyes, it was a baby picture, his baby picture.

it was true he was British royalty!

Charteris noticed Harry looking at the picture piped up;

''that was taken a day after you were born your highness'' the man finished saying then he added;

''the queen and her party have been informed of your arrival they are being driven back as we speak''

''okay thank you, Charteris'' Harry said while he sat down on one of the tartan chairs, he was nervously looking around when he was interrupted by a male voice who made Harry froze up.

''good god! it's really you!'' called a voice from the door, Harry turned to look at the person who called out and his eyes when wide;

''standing in from of him was none other than his father prince Charles of wales.

Harry nervously stood up to greet the man only to be pulled into a hug, Harry stiffen, he wasn't used to people hugging, the man seems to notice Harry stiffen but choose not to comment on it after looked to be a minute prince Charles let Harry go;

''I can't believe you're finally here! when they said that they found you I couldn't believe it'' Harry was about to reply when his words were cut fo by both Prince Harry and William coming in running.

''Daddy, daddy! is he our oldest brother?'' little Harry asks, his mischievous eyes reminded him soo much of the Weasley twins.

''yes, Harry did is your brother Hadrian, Hadrian may I introduce you to your brother Harry and William'' prince Charles said smiling, he was happy his eldest son was back home with them.

Harry smiled down at his brothers;

'' hello it'' nice to meet you!'' then he proceeded to hug both Harry and William.

this was the seen the queen encountered when she entered the sitting room, she silently walked in together with Prince Philip, who was looking eagerly at Harry and his brother, Harry let go of his brothers only to confront by the queen, Harry's almost gone nervousness came back 10 times, but he still composes himself, giving a small bow he said;

''Hello your higness''

again he was surprised by his grandmother who pulled him into a hug and as before he tensed up but he awkwardly return her hug, while the queen narrowed her eyes, a dangerous glint got into her eyes, someone had mistreated her grandson! someone had hurt her Hadrian! whoever they are they better hide! the queen inwardly snarled.

somewhere in surrey, a cold sweat ran through petunia's spine, somehow she knew that she and her husband were fucked.
