Defence against the Dark Arts was exactly like Ciel had predicted, Lupin called him Harry Potter with no idea how upset that made the young Phantomhive. Draco noticed how upset Ciel was but he, too, had to pretend he was his old self so he grabbed Ciel's robe arm and sneered.

"Oi Potter, rumour has it that  we're studying dementors this year. Don't pass out when they attack you with their claws." He faked a laugh and Ciel flinched. 

"Piss off Malfoy, everyone knows you're just a sad lonely asshole under all those riches." This time it was Draco's turn to flinch and Ciel gave him an apologetic smile which could be mistook for a smirk then he whispered, "Punch me." Draco's eyes widened.

"No. My Lord I may be pretending to bully you but i wouldn't go that far, you're my friend." Draco whispered back. Ciel rolled his eyes and glared at him. 

"You're such a coward Trancy." Ciel growled and then he felt his head jolt to the side, Draco had indeed punched him and the whole class gasped in shock. "Good punch Malfoy, although it didn't hurt." Ciel chuckled darkly, looking at the back of the class where he saw Sebastian in his raven form and a spider dangling from the dragon skeleton above him, who he knew was Claude Faustus the demon that saved his life. 

"Shut up, Potter." Draco hissed as he turned to watch Professor Lupin start the class.

After the two hour introduction of Defence, it was the free hour third years had. Draco walked out of the castle, Claude right behind him and Ciel following a minute after him to not cause suspicion among students. Sebastian held Ciel's hand as they walked away from the castle and down the secret passage of the Whomping Willow. Draco and Ciel emerged from the tunnel first, followed by their butlers. 

"Harry? Mr Malfoy? What are you doing here?" Came a voice from the shadows, Ciel casted the light charm and that revealed the voice was Remus Lupin. "You're not supposed to be this close to this shack." 

Ciel chuckled darkly and shook his head, "Then why are you here Uncle Moony? Surely you recall Harry Potter is just a name that is rumoured to belong to me." Remus looked at Ciel confused.

"But surely, Harry Potter is your true name?" Remus stuttered with a confused tone and Ciel shook his head. 

"I am Ciel Hadrian Phantomhive, son of James Charles Phantomhive. I am your godson and Earl of Phantomhive." Remus's eyes widened at the name, this boy was the new Earl of Phantomhive? "Sebastian, remove the memory blocks from Remus." Sebastian bowed and put a hand over Remus's face, his contract cymbal glowing from his masters order.

Five minutes passed and Remus opened his eyes, the pain of memories being forced back into his brain finally leaving him. He looked at Ciel then held out his arms, "come here, cub." He said softly and Ciel ran into his arms hugging him tightly. His family was complete now, everyone he had lost was now back in his arms.

"Uncle Moony, it's been so long since I've seen you." Ciel whispered and Remus nodded sadly. Sebastian watched the scene unfold as his lover was happy. 

"Master, can we talk outside for a moment?" Sebastian spoke up and Ciel nodded, leaving the shack and into the cold England morning.

"What is it Sebastian?" Ciel asked, his voice shaky as his mind jumped to conclusions. 

"You have all your family back, you have your title as Earl Phantomhive and you have made alliances with young Draconis Trancy. Why don't you drop this silly act of revenge and live happily?" Sebastian asked, his eyes turning to his demon eyes. Ciel turned away to think.

"That does sound nice.." Ciel mumbled and Sebastian smirked, his demon form showing as he reached to take his young masters soul, not knowing why his demon self was making him do so.

"But," Ciel added, turning back to look at Sebastian, "I didn't crawl back from Hell just to be happy. I will have my revenge and then after that I will make a new contract with you, a contract that will make you stay by my side until death." Ciel glared at Sebastian, kind of heartbroken Sebastian was trying to steal his soul. 

"Yes my Lord, forgive me I don't know what came over me." Sebastian apologized and Ciel scowled at him.

"Leave me alone. Do anything you want just leave me alone!!" Ciel yelled his order at Sebastian before putting his hands to his mouth as he watched Sebastian bow and leave him on his own in the cold. "No, Sebastian I-" Ciel shook his head and walked inside, wanting some time away from the demon that just tried to eat his soul.

"Ciel? What happened? Where's Sebastian?" Draco asked, a worried tone in his voice as he looked at his friend. Ciel shook his head, lifted the floorboard that hid the secret passage and jumped down, leaving the shack and heading back to Hogwarts. 

When he got out of the secret passage underneath the Whomping Willow, he was met with the friendly hand of Dumbledore. Ciel hesitated before taking the hand, magic flowing through him and making him weaker and lose his sight. He felt glasses being pushed onto his nose and he looked up at Dumbledore. 

"Let's get you some hot tea, Harry Potter." Dumbledore said calmly, wrapping an arm around the young boy and guided him back up to the castle. Harry nodded and followed Dumbledore, admiring him. Now he was the one with memory blocks, forgetting his friendship with Draco, forgetting his family was alive, forgetting Sebastian Michaelis. 

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore." Harry replied, as he walked through the doors of Hogwarts only to be met with two massive hugs: Ron and Hermione.

"Harry! Oh thank goodness where have you been?! We haven't seen you since first year! You-Know-Who took you!" Hermione cried into Harry's shoulder and Harry hugged her close and rubbed her back.

"Well I'm safe now so let's just forget shall we?" They nodded and walked up to the headmasters office.

When Harry walked inside the room, he looked over at a mirror and gasped at how he looked. Jet black hair, emerald green eyes and a frail body. What spooked Harry was that he could've sworn he had one purple eye. The contract had been destroyed, Dumbledore had succeeded.
