Harry's POV

"Freak where is breakfast!" The High Pitch voice on my Aunt Petunia cut into my sleep, awakening me from my nightmares.

I tried to open the cupboard door to find it locked. Loud high pitch screaming sounded from my cousin, clearly just noticing there was no food on the table.

" It's okay my boy we will go you for even better food, it IS your birthday after all" My uncles voice boomed.

I heard footsteps walking towards my cupboard door.

"You, boy, will be staying in there until we leave for the zoo!" Uncle Vernon said anger-ly.  

An hour later 

I heard the front door open and my relatives come in talking loudly. One of them, Petunia, came over to his 'room' and opened the door shoving a list of chores in his face.

He took a quick look at it and started to completes the tasks on the list. Starting with the kitchen.

After half an hour of work the kitchen looked spotless. Dudley came crashing down the stairs all 'dressed up', according to Petunia, To me it looked like someone had stuffed an overfed pig into a suit, and that's exactly what it was.

"Make sure everything on that list is done by the time we get back, Freak" Vernon stated, his purple face trying to look fierce.

"Yes sir" I said, Something flashed behind his eyes as he heard my soft voice an saw the innocent mask on my face. Anyone who Saw me with his mask up or heard my voice would have thought I was an innocent little bird singing my beautiful song, why should my relatives be any different.

In reality I am cold-hearted and extremely powerful, always planning on ways to kill my relatives. All hidden under my innocent mask.

I watched them leave to pick up Dudley s friend for going to the Zoo.

I walked out to the back yard to start on the garden. Once I reach it though I see Most of the flowers have dried up. 'Fuck! That's what I forgot to do yesterday!' My brain was buzzing, I knew that this would result in a beating, but I don't know how I can fix them. I use a small bit of magic to water them and try to make them healthy again but it doesn't work. I pick one and lay it in my palm, The dull yellow flower just sat there. I stare at it I watch it turn from its dull color to black slowly fading through like an illness, like my touch made the flower turn to a shadow. 

I was startled out of my thoughts my a loud hissing sound behind me.

"Get away! You are too close to my nesst! I will bite and you will never ssee the ssun again!"  

Spinning around I saw A long black Snake staring at my head raised poised to strike.

"Wait! I'm so sorry, I had no idea you were there. You were so quite."  I hissed back. Wait...hissed? It Adorned a surprised look As I spoke.

"You're a speaker?"  The snake hissed slithering closer and into the light. Its scales shined a blue-y green color making it look even more beautiful.

"I guess..." I said still in disbelief at the snakes beauty "I'm Harry Potter, Whats your name? Your beautiful by the way."

"The Potters had another son? I thought the Boy-Who-Lived was an only child. My name is Umbra it means shadow. And thank you."

We talked for so long and I lost track of time until I heard the front door open and I realized I had barely finished anything. Dread ran through my body as I heard the front door slam and foot steps pounding through the house. The Back door opened and Umbra Fled to the bushes.

"Boy! Did you finish anything on the list!" I flinched at my uncle yelled at me.

"N-no sir..." I stuttered placing by mask back on.

He growled at grabbed my hair and started dragging my inside, But instead of throwing my back into the cupboard under the stairs he dragged my to the bathroom and tossed me on the floor. He started taking of his belt. (ABUSE IS STARTING HERE SKIP TO THE NEXT CHAPTER IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO READ) He walked over to me and ripped of my baggy shirt, his belt held tightly in hand. For the first time in forever I felt truly scared as he raised the belt above his head. Then in a split second It was brought down on him the belt buckle ripping my flesh. 

"Count every time You get hit!!" Vernon growled Bringing It down on me again.

 "One!" I cried. Again. "Two!" Again. "Three!" I got to about fifty before passing out from the pain and blood loss.

I don't know how much later I woke up but When I did I was Chained up suspended slightly off the ground In the dark. I tried to struggle but the movement made the pain in my back a thousand times worse Making my scream.

"About time you woke up" The voice of his uncle made Harry s blood freeze. " I found a few more things to help you learn you lesson" 

Suddenly I felt cold and sharp metal cut into my stomach then my arms hot blood making small splashing sounds at it hit the floor , I cried you for help. A large hand covered my mouth silencing my screams.

"shut up boy!" I felt the knife go deeper into my flesh

I let out one last scream before my brain became fuzzy and I passed out, the last thing I saw being my Uncles face.
