The Joker Rising

Unexpected turn of events

Nothing happened for a very long time. Two parents who thought they lost their son in a fire without ever meeting him was now standing before them.  

James looked at his son, where his eyes were the green of fresh dew glinting in the sunlight off a leaf of green emerald. Not like Lily's no but the killing curse green.  His lips were red and thin and his nose slender and rounded. A prominent jaw curved gracefully around and the strength of his neck showed in the twining cords of muscle that shaped his entire body; strong arms, bold thighs and calves, a firm chest and abdomen. He could tell women swooned at the sight of him no matter and one word passed from his lips the girls would all fall head over heals for him. 

He looked terrifying at the same time, he was able to command the presence of everyone with such ease, the power he had. There was so much of it it was almost tangible just looking at him. James looked over the boy as a whole he knew full heartily who it was, it was almost like a carbon copy of himself but younger and so much more dangerous than he ever was or ever will be. 

It was Hadrian. Jame's son. The one that grew up with no love. The one they lost. The one they have wronged. The one they forgot. The son they thought to be dead. 

Yet here he was standing there, he knew who his parents were. They never looked for him never came back for him all those years of torment they never came. He recognized that he didn't know the full story but there was still the anger he couldn't hide. In his eyes showed that he didn't know his parents like a child should. 

When he lost his father he almost went to find them but ended not. Was he scared? or just not interested? Hadrian didn't know. What he knew was that he was dangerous and he would never admit it, that is what scared him. They didn't know what he went through how could they help him when he desperately needed it. 

Then there was that night his father died they came for him. For Hadrian. Why? What did his father want to tell him that night? They wanted him for some reason. Heir they called it. But all it did was confuse him more so he settled with the two ones who still cared. Marcus and Rosa.

Hadrian stared at his parents everyone else stared at him and Marcus. They didn't recognize him but they could tell they were brothers and friends. He watched Hadrian like a big brother ready to stop him or anything from hurting him. 

"Hadrian?" Lily said again she couldn't believe it.  He looked at her with no love or compassion; which would be reasonable.

After a while he finally answered "I know who you two are including you" he pointed to his twin "I have known since my father told me which was the day he he died." Silence and hurt filled the room. 

"How did you survive? The fire?" Dumbledore asked

"I set it. It was may first kill well it was the Father but still same day." He answered with no guilt what so ever.  Every one shuddered at his tone it truly was nerve wrecking. 

"There had to have been 50 inoce-"

"They weren't" Hadrian stated making the room colder with his magic. "I was five it was accidental magic at least the fire bit." 

They all could tell it wasn't up for debate with how cold the room  got.  It was now Michael's turn to ask a question.

"Who are you?" he arrogantly asked, recognizing how Hadrian looked much like their father. 

Hadrian didn't seamed faced at all knowing his own twin didn't know he existed. The eyes in the room fell to James and Lily who were embarrassed. 

James then awkwardly said "Micheal, this is your brother, Hadrian."

"What?" the Golden trio didn't know what to do but to stare at Hadrian.  

Hadrian rolled his eyes "I am your twin, sadly." Even though they all understood why his response was that way but they still had a mad look mixed with shock.  

"I don-" he tried the say but Marcus stopped him

"I don't think you'd want to do that. It is a hard enough time keeping his emotions on" he warned them "it took me almost a year last time." 

As this time the sound of stones moving and a large Tiger Snake came slithering up to Hadrian who smiled. "I see you found uncles Sal's tunnels?" 

"Yes master the are quit nice and the feast- oh the Potter brat can I have him?"  She asked Hadrian who laughed leaving every one worried and scared.

He shook his head "you just had a feast and your asking for more? unbelievable."   

"I hope your feast was good enough to stop eating my frogs?" Marcus said which got a head nod and a hiss from Rosa. 

Hadrian the laughed again to what she said which made Marcus roll his eyes "The answer is no Rosa, not yet anyways." Everyone unconscionably shuddered with the way it was being said.   

"You're a parseltongue?" James asked a little horror struck.

"Yes Uncle Salazar taught me how to use it right which is healing ingeries more than anything."

"Sorry Salazar? As in Slytherin?"

"Yup, I do have to say they won't like the redecoration of the office especially Uncle Godric."

"He means the paintings they call him heir and they taught him since he was five." Marcus cleared up the confusion. 

"They never seem to answer me when I ask why. Anyways nice to meet you dear brother." Hadrian said in a cold tone with a hint a annoyance. 

"Can we go master I need to clean my scale?"

He laughed at Rosa wining about her scales "Excuse us we need to go before Rosa here throws a fit because of blood in between her scales" at this she hissed and everyone paled a little except Marcus who was trying to hold back a laugh and retorted a insult and the snake hiss with some venom.

The two of them picked up the mask and got to the door Lily stopped them "wait I thought you were dead for the last four years. You can't leave."

"Why yes I can, you left me and my only parent was murdered." They left without another word, the office was left in complete silence thinking on what he said. Which was true but Lily couldn't handle it. He was still her son one that she missed out on his life.

She did what she knew or her feet did anyways, she followed them.
