"Go do some yardwork and fix our garden, you freakish little boy!" Mrs. Dursley yelled at her miserable and tired nephew. Without any words a small, underfed boy went to the yard and began pulling weeds. As he was nearing the bushes he spotted a beautiful black and blue snake that began hissing at him. Right before he was about to scream, he heard a voice.

"Ooh what iss thisss, a tassty little snack that will lasst me for a while." "I must be hearing things. I guess today is the day where all my suffering will end" Harry muttered as he started silently crying.

"What iss thiss? A sspeaker? Greetings speaker, I will not eat you, tell me what are you doing here, with these filthy non magicals." The reply from the snake surprised Harry as he opened his eyes wide. "How are you talking to me, and what is a speaker and a magical?"

"Oh I sssee, you are young and naive, you alsso don't know much. Alright let me explain this to you, young sspeaker. I am a young magical serpent named Sambah, you and I are speaking in the serpent tongue called Parseltongue. What iss your name young speaker?" "My name is Harry, and explain me what?"

"Alright young sspeaker, I sense those filth coming. Thisss iss what I need you to do. Pick me up and run away to the nearby park while we sspeak." Harry did what he was told to do. He didn't want his new and only friend to be known by someone like Aunt Petunia.

"Set me down now. The magical world is controlled by Wizards. You, young speaker are a wizard. Right now you are apart of 'Muggle Britain' and to me it looks like you wish to abandon this wretched place?" "Yes I would like that, my aunt and uncle are terrible people and they barely feed me, they make me do a lot of work and hit me when I do something wrong."

As Harry started crying Sambah could only think about this speaker and decided that he wanted to bond with Harry.

"Alright sspeaker, I will help you, in order to do that we must be bonded and I must become your familiar. To do this hold me and say 'Let this snake and I become bonded. Let this bond affect us and let it grow." Harry did as he was told, and spoke what he needed to speak. As he finished, there was a flash of light, and Harry could feel a close tie to Sambah, and felt his magic grow. Sambah meanwhile felt a restraint on his tongue be lifted, and noticed his length and skin grow. 'Hm, this boy is going to be quite powerful if I grew this much already.' Thought Sambah.

"Okay Master, it worked, now let us go back to your home and they will no longer harm you, since I, your familiar, will protect you with my life." Sambah wrapped around Harry's stomache while Harry went home, and ran straight into his 'room'.

The next couple of hours was filled with Sambah explaining to Harry about magic and the wizarding world aswell as devising a plan to enter the wizarding world. Diagon Alley, more specifically.

One week later.

"Good job master, you have learned the tongue of the Goblin. Now we can execute our plan and take you to Diagon Alley." "Yay, I get to get out of here! I am surprised that you know the goblin tongue Sambah." "Ah yes, master I learned of it when I was a youngling, I am surprised that you picked it up very quick."

With that, Harry started making his way to his uncle. "Uncle, I have found out a way to get rid of me, all you need to do is drive me to this address." Mr. Dursley was about to pass a retort when he thought, 'Wait, get rid of him forever? Hmm, that sounds worth it.' "Fine. Pack up whatever you need, we are leaving in two hours. However you may never come back." "Sounds good, Uncle."
