The first warlock was born. Never in history there is a warlock in the world. Standing in spotlight, watch how this warlock lives his life. Never expect his life is dull.

I think I see the very grave mistake.

I lose my mc on the flow, his character is all over the place. 

The story is now only revolving around the plot not on the character. 


I already have a revised version 2 but I want to read it first atleast 25 chapters. Sorry Guys.

Flourish and Blotts (a few weeks ago, just after Harry's raid)

 "Mr Blott all items have been accounted for, we're not sure what whoever broke in was looking for but nothing seems to be missing" one of the men that stormed in after the door opened reported. Mr Blott remained silent as he watched his men examine the room, "did you at least manage to find a trace of whoever broke in? If they managed to make it this far, it means they at least knew the defences here".

 "Sir while we don't know who broke in, we managed to collect a trace of their magical signature. We'll share it with all our contacts around the country, with that we can use it to detect them should they ever walk into any magical place", with a huff Mr Blott turned around as he reached the door he looked over his shoulder to his men "I want whoever it is that thinks they can mess with me to wish they were dead, is that understood!"

 With a nod from the men a few proceeded to step out, a few others in charge gave out orders to reinstall and upgrade the defence and wards. 

Bones Manor 

 Madam Bones was a rather strict woman, as Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement she had to be. There were not a lot of females that worked in the ministry let alone the rare few that managed to make it up the hierarchy into a position of power.

 The First Wizarding War took a heavy toll on her family: her father and mother were killed by Lord Voldemort; Amelia's brother Edgar, a member of the Order of the Phoenix, his wife, and their children were murdered by Death Eaters. She had at least one surviving sibling, however, as she and Edgar shared a niece, Susan, who was born to another brother.

 When she heard that Sirius Black a known member of her brother's little vigilante group betrayed the Potters, she was astonished. However, due to her position in the ministry at that time she wasn't able to gain admission to witness the trial of Black, and by the time she was in power the verdict had already been passed and the whereabouts of Harry Potter was only known to the Chief Warlock. 

 Imagine her surprise as she got home one day to receive a letter from Gringotts concerning the guardianship of Harry Potter, the more she read the more astonishing she was. She knew something was wrong as Albus Dumbledore continuously reassured members of the Wizengamot and general he was happy and well looked after. Being called to Gringotts to have a meeting with the spirited away Potter Heir didn't sound like everything was alright.

 Agreeing to the meeting in 2 weeks time she was tempted to storm to Hogwarts and strangle Albus asking what the hell was going on, but she was suspicious of the little note that said all this should be conducted in discretion, at least until the guardianship was sorted. 

Abbott Manor 

 Dogma Abbott head of the Abbott family sat behind his desk as he observed the letter laid before him, shifting his attention to the fire as it slowly crackled he continued to contemplate on his next action. "Dear I think we should go to this meeting, if not for anything at least to hear what they have to say" Sarah Abbott wife of Dogma said as she couldn't help but worry, being the wife of a Pureblood and Lord of a house despite being a muggleborn, she picked up her fair share of knowledge when dealing with politics.

 Dogmas focus shifted to his wife thinking about her words, "there is more to this than I'd like, and I have a feeling we wouldn't like what we will discover if we went. The name Harry Potter currently holds a lot of weight in our world both domestic and internationally, for something like this…", he couldn't help but muse on the political impact this would have, especially to his family. 

 "Still we should go, we aren't agreeing to anything yet, according to this another House is going to be there. At least with this we would know what's happening and be able to prepare for anything that may come of it", with a sigh Dogma sat in silence for a good 10 minute. "Very well we will attend this meeting, just be prepared for anything that may happen".

Potter Manor (2 days after the raid and a day after the houses received the letters from Gringotts)

 Harry was currently relaxing as he'd spent the previous day creating the mech frames, it was extremely tiring and even though he could use the energy in the atmosphere to reduce the burden, with the size of his core which is reaching the same capacity as a freshly graduated Hogwarts student he was still drained. 

 As he had a comic in his hands courtesy of the house elves a regal looking owl landed on the armrest of the couch opposite him. Looking at the envelope he performs a series of detection spells making sure there's nothing untoward on the letter, the owl looked disgruntled at this but Harry simply rolled his eyes, looking at the content of the letter he nodded. Writing his reply thanking AM Griphook, he had the owl return and sat back down to continue his book.

 At that moment Lady Matilda walked in to the room, noticing the letter from Gringotts she walked up to him "may I?" Gesturing to the letter Harry nodded still focused on his comic, Matilda read the letter then turned to Harry "I'll come with you to this meeting, maybe a second opinion may help in choosing your guardian. I don't see why I can't be your guardian though", Harry's reply was simple and straight to the point "unfortunately you're technically not alive, no one knows who you are, and a lot of people might react in ways we don't know if a random witch claims guardianship of their 'Boy-Who-Lived'". 

 With a huff Lady Matilda replied "it's not as if they can do anything to us" gaining a nod in reply "while that may be so, I'd rather not have to deal with any other wizard and besides, whoever becomes my 'guardian' will basically be a shield against the rest of the wizards". At that they relaxed into a comfortable silence.

A random soul following a fatal accident awakens in the fictional world of Harry Potter, with no recollection of his identity or familiar faces, how will he overcome the trials and tribulations he is to face while wearing the body of a recently deceased Harry Potter.

'Stand by. Don't do anything stupid….yet.'

"So Tony, where is Scott and Vision" Suddenly asked Wanda as she was sitting with Hill, while Tony was spacing out.

Tony didn't answer and just continued to stare into nothingness when Maria sighed and said

"They are on the run. They both escaped….Scott by turning into an ant and Vision..Well he can pass through walls so it's understandable that he escaped."

Wanda looked down and nodded as she stole a glance at Tony, who visibly flinched at Maria's answer.

Hill then started to fill Wanda in about the things that went down when she was in Raft prison. About how Fury's car exploded and how Tony brought a full stop to an Arms dealer and all his associates in a mere two days and became the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. 
Wanda was extremely impressed by Tony and started to see him in a completely different light.

"Maria, You go and get yourself familiar with the Chitauri weapons, you also need to oversee their trainings with the weapon. I will contact you later about Fury." Said Tony as the jet landed in the S.H.I.E.L.D facility.
Looking at that Tony needed to take Wanda somewhere, she got off the jet while Wanda started thinking about what was on Tony's mind.

As Maria got off the jet, It immediately lifted up and then flew with extreme speed towards the Stark Tower.
The jet safely landed on the tower and Tony started to walk without saying anything. Wanda quickly got off too and started to follow behind him. They went through a hallway and then went inside a lab. Wanda was looking all around the lab as it was her first time when she arrived in Tony's lab.
As she was looking around, She noticed a yellow glow coming from the end of the lab. She looked towards Tony in a questioning gaze but Tony just kept staring at the glow which gave Wanda a feeling that Tony wanted to show this to her.

She slowly started walking towards the glow and when she reached there, She saw a Man's body on a surgical table while a yellow light was coming from the top of the table.

Suddenly her mind was in a turmoil again and her powers started to go out of control when a sweet sensation went through her wrist and calmed her mind by making her brain release dopamine. She also felt Tony wrap his arms around her which made her stiff.

"Calm down Wanda. This is quite important"

Wanda stayed like that for a few seconds before calming her emotions and asking 

"Tony? Who is he? And why is my magic reacting to him?"

Tony didn't release Wanda from his arms and after much deliberation, he started explaining

"His real name is 'Max Eisenhardt'...Alias 'Magneto'. A world famous Mutant Terrorist. He has blood of not thousands, not a hundred thousands, not a million but several million people on his hands. Many years ago, he met a woman who was considered as a myth by many and a goddess by the rest. They fell in love soon after their meeting and she became pregnant with his child. Around the time of her pregnancy, she came to know about his evil nature and ran to her father who was even more of a myth. 
At the time she was giving birth, it was found that she had twins. A girl and a boy. 
But their happiness was short lived when suddenly some people who called themselves 'High Evolutionary' came and stole her kids. She, along with her father fought and retrieved the kids."

Wanda was holding herself back from breaking down while listening to Tony and he tightened his arms around her to support her.

"What happened to them? What was their name?....Tony? Tell me" Said Wanda while Choking on her own tears.

"I don't know the name of the woman's father but some evidence showed that he was regarded as a Scarlet Warlock. The woman was named as Natalya Maximoff but was known as Scarlet Witch. I don't know what happened to them, just this that her kids were given to her sister who was then killed in a bomb blast and the 'High Evolutionaries' finally found the kids so they could use them for their cause….

Wanda, You didn't got your abilities from the mind stone like you believe. Your powers are divine...A gift of your bloodline...the proof of you being the new Scarlet Witch."

Tony's words completely broke her down and as her powers were starting to go on a rampage again, the bracelet in her hand sent some waves in her head which made her sleep.

'I really don't like this...this is too bothersome. Once I get the complete control over Mind Stone, I can easily manipulate people. But now...If I were to be hasty and force her into anything, her Chaos Magic of Reality Warping could go out of control which can even fuck me. Shit! This is slowing down my other researches…..*sigh*..let's just...arghh…'

Tony was irritated while Wanda was asleep. He couldn't take any risk with her and although he was extremely patient, he just didn't like the idea of being in a close proximity with a Mentally unstable mutant who could change the reality of entire earth.
Although Tony was doubtful about her having the same powers as her comic counterpart but he didn't wanted to take any risks right now either.

Wanda slept for an hour when suddenly she was woken up by a nightmare. Tony immediately hugged her and started patting her back in order to calm her down, which evidently worked as she calmed down and separated herself from Tony.

"Are you okay?" Asked Tony with worry on his face and caution on his mind

Wanda nodded weakly before saying

"How do you know so much…? Since when have you known all this?....And...Why is he lying in your lab instead of prison?"

Tony looked her in the eye after listening to her question and then said 

"After you revealed to us about your parent's death. I wanted to know more about you so that I can help you better and try to repent for what I did….I researched about you but all the search turned up empty when I tried searching about your foster mother. It was like she popped out of thin air. I tracked her and linked her to the Witches….I found many ancient scriptures about Witches and just two days before the incident at the Airport, I finally confirmed The identity of your parents. 
I am cursed with knowledge, Wanda...I know what I want to know and even know what I try to forget. That guy Magneto might be your biological father but he is just the harvester of innocent lives for the sake of his hollow beliefs. He thinks every normal human should die and only Mutants should exist as they are the new evolution of mankind. He actually tried to kill me too."

Wanda was astonished to know about this. Kill all the humans? Tried to kill Tony too?

Tony started to poison her mind with his persuasive tone..about how Magneto didn't even have the right to exist in the world and when he was sure that she believed him, He hit the Iron while it was hot and gave her the Scriptures and stories about her Mother and the Scarlet family which wasn't that hard to find when he had Jarvis everywhere in the world and Magneto's memories. 
He also gave her the parchment about their family's spells and phrases which she immediately familiarized herself with.

After she had read all that Tony provided her about her family, she was sure about her lineage and extremely grateful towards Tony.

Tony was sitting on a sofa when Wanda exited the library of the Stark Tower and found Tony staring at nothingness with that same guilt, sadness, and loneliness in his eyes that she saw in his eyes many times after the airport incident. She didn't know why but her heart ached when she saw Tony in this condition and she just couldn't help herself from approaching him and hugging him tightly.

Tony was startled for a second before asking

"What happened Wanda? Did anything happen? Don't worry, I'm here, right?"

Tony tried to console her which made her even more worried about him as he was neglecting himself and only caring about her well being.

"Tony...Please share your pain...share it with me or its gonna eat you alive one day."

Tony's hold on Wanda went lose as he heard her words while Wanda's hold tightened. He quickly opened his mouth to say something but couldn't after he heard her next few words.

"And don't try to hide your pain in your sarcasm….It's only gonna become worse the longer you keep it bottled up."

'This plan of Pity and Emotional-Manipulation always works' Thought Tony as a lone tear fell from his left eye and he buried his head in her arms.

A Genius Psychopath from Earth transmigrates into the body of Tony Stark which completely changes the fate of the Multiverse.

=============
The Reason I'm writing this and not continuing my other novels is that I am in hospital and the chapters of those novels are saved up in my desktop at home. Now till I recover in this Hospital, I will write this fiction and maybe more from my mobile.

Gabriel Revaldi is a simple man that tries to have a simple life. Gabriel is currently walking toward his apartment, where he lives. His apartment is located not too far away from the market in his city. Gabriel lived in a city called Jakarta in a country named Indonesia. Gabriel looks at his phone and sees that the time is currently at 6 PM, so he should be able to arrive in his apartment around 6.10 PM.

Gabriel is an orphan as his parents died a few years ago because of a car accident. He is devastated because that accident was not only the accident that took his parents' life away but also his brother and sister. After that accident, Gabriel stayed with his grandparents, who owned a little food stall near the market.

Gabriel lost his parents when he was 15 years old, and currently, he is 22 years old. For those seven years, Gabriel spent his time helping his Grandparents opening the food stall and doing the dishes while his Grandparents did the cooking and serving. When Gabriel finished his study in college, he was forced to move out of his Grandparent house because of the new job he got after he finished his study.

Gabriel only went for five months, but he already missed his Grandparents, he missed his Grandpa cooking and his Grandma special hot chocolate. Thinking about it, Gabriel can't be helped but to drool a little. 

Without even knowing, Gabriel already arrived at his apartment. As he gets inside his room, he then takes off his uniform and changes to his casual clothes and then sits down on the chair near his computer.

As he turns on the computer and goes to his email, Gabriel sees that many spams and some unique emails inside his inbox. As he opens the email, he is surprised as inside the email is a WORM CYOA version 3 revised.

Gabriel knows what CYOA is, and of course, he also knows the Worm CYOA as he is a fan of CYOA fic. He read them on SB and SV, where many authors try their chance to write a Worm CYOA fic. I clicked the link, and it sent me toward something like a browser game. 

"Two beings spiral through the starry void… Yada Yada… The cycle is broken… It will destroy countless earth… Yada Yada… And that is the end… Let see"

Gabriel click the Difficulty button and see there are three options. The first one is God Mode, where he can get 10 points. The second option is Standard mode, where he gets 5 points. The last one is Skitter mode, where he doesn't get any points to spend and need to pick a disadvantage to gain a point.

In God mode, He could pick all the power, including World Breaker power, Greater Power, and Lesser Power. Standard only gives him Greater Power and Lesser Power, while Skitter mode only lets him use the Lesser Power, which sucks.

Without thinking twice, Gabriel picks God Mode and get 10 points for his own choices.

After clicking the next button, he arrives at the power panel, where there are three types of power it provides. He clicks the lesser power and sees the list of the power it gives. The apprentice is the power that Gabriel needs to work to get more powerful. The list of power apprentice has is; Arcane Magic (DnD), Aura (RWBY), Bending (Avatar), Biotic (Mass Effect), Dresden files magic, Divine Magic (DnD), Libriomancy (Libriomancer), Force (Star Wars), Gnosis (Mage: The awakening magic), Ninja Magic (Naruto), Psionics (DnD), Thaumaturgy (Nasu), Wand Magic (Harry Potter), Warlock Magic (DnD), Weaboo Fightan Magic (DnD, Book of Nine Swords).

The apprentice cost him 2 points, and he can spend one point to have the knowledge of the power that he chooses. Gabriel can also pick another power that is provided by spending another one point.

The next power is Twins. With twins, he can choose any parahuman in the worm universe and have the same power. Gabriel can also use one point to do a Jailbreak the power and modify the ability to be more powerful or versatile. Sadly after he Jailbreaks the power, it will not grow any stronger.

The next power is Wildcard, where he gets random power from the power Generator website. As for the potency of the power, he needs to roll a dice of 1d8 and add 2. The number of powers is classified from 1 to 15+. 

Number 1 only has a threat slightly above normal humans.

Number 2 has a threat of an athletic human or at least a well-equipped human. 

Number 3 needs several trained individuals who may be required to deal with the situation. 

Number 4 needs One full squad of trained operatives should be able to deal with this situation. 

Number 5 A typical parahuman or one parahuman assisting a squad of operatives should be able to deal with the power in question. 

Number 6 A typically trained parahuman or one parahuman assisting a squad of operatives should be able to deal with the power in question. 

Number 7, Parahumans should engage in pairs or trios at a minimum, two fully equipped squads should be deployed. 

Number 8, Evacuation of civilians should take priority for all squad members. Engaging should be avoided outside of specific missions and tasks. Parahumans should engage only when supported by their team to ensure a minimum of complications or danger. 

Number 9, Parahumans, and PRT should evacuate where possible, and should only engage when a specific mission and strategy has been outlined. Major countermeasures should take effect. 

Number 10+, In the event of a serious confrontation, additional teams or specific high-rated individuals should be called in to manage the crisis. 

Number 15+, Planet level-threat, and Functional loss of humanity in the host.

While Wildcard can get him some World Breaking power, it stops him from reaching its full potential. For example, if he gains control over Gap, and rolls eight then adds two, he only gets ten as it was the maximum number of the dice while the original power of Gap can be a threat of 15+, a planet level threat.

Gabriel wasn't interested in the lesser power, so he skipped it and clicked the Greater power. In the greater power section, he sees Crossover power where he could pick any power from the published comic book character and gain its powerset. Of course, he only gets the weakened powerset, but it will gradually become more powerful in time, but sadly it will take decades or more to regain the more powerful character. The power that depends on force also can't be used, for example, the Speed force and Power Cosmic.

Next is exalted, Exalted will make him… well exalted above all others, but sadly this power is the same as Crossover, where he needs to wait more than a decade to be an all-powerful being.

Next is Gamer, Gamer power as well... The power that makes his life into a game where he can level up and do some sh*t that game character can do inside the game.

Next is Mad Talent, where he will gain a power that makes him so talented that reality says nope. If he wants to be a thief, then this power will give him the talent to steal even a moon from the sky.

Next is servant, where he can get a powerset and memory of a servant from nasuverse, but sadly if he wants Gilgamesh and Karna Gabriel need to pay extra because of their bullsh*t powerset.

The last is Power of Word, where he can use any word as a weapon; for example, he can use FUS RO DAH like in the Skyrim. 

All Greater power cost him 4 points while Gilgamesh and Karna will cost him another 2 points if he decided to choose them.

Now into the most fun Power, the World Breaking Power. The World Breaking Power has nine powers that he can choose. The first power is Alexandria, the power that makes him Superman on steroids. Not only does this power make him invulnerable to any damage. It also makes him the smartest person on earth.

The next power is Legend, which makes him the Lord of Laser. With this power, he can fire a laser toward his enemy. He is also able to choose the property and effect as much as he wants. He can fire a laser that has the property of poison but has an effect of freezing at the same time.

The next power is Eidolon. Eidolon will make him the most versatile parahuman ever on the earth. This power will let him create another power and use 5 of them at the same time. This power is also continuously active and helps the user for everyday life. For example, if he is lost on the road, Eidolon will give him the power that makes him a living Google Map. If there is an ambush attack? Don't worry. This power will make him immune to any damage for a short amount of time. Sadly this power can't make a permanent power, so every power that Eidolon creates for him will not stay permanently.

The next power is the Emperor of Man. It will give him the power of the Emperor from the 40k Universe. It will provide him with the ability of the most potent physic in the entire Universe.

The next power is Kaleidoscope. Kaleidoscope will give him the ability to master the power of Multiverse. With this, he will have infinite mana, and he can gain his counterpart's power to make it himself. Lastly, this power gives him the ability to travel to the other world.

Next, power is the Inspired Inventor. It will give him the ability to make more power to create technology. Inspired Inventor gives him five charges, and for every charge, he able to develop a specialty that has a threat 3-5. However, the power can't be used in the same specialty at the same time. So he can't stack the same specialty after he gets it. He needs to wait for at least a day before he can stack the specialty. Stacking the specialty will make the threat level increase one level per stack. The total charges also didn't stack, so he needed to use all of the charges before it reset the next day.

The next power is Psychokinetic. This power will give him the ability to control energy. With this power, he can destroy a city without much difficulty and leave it uninhabitable for centuries.

The next power is the most broken power he ever witnessed. The following power is Power Manipulation, which gives him the ability to create another power. However, it also has the same limitation as to the Inspired Inventor. So he can't stack the same power at the same time, and the Charges can't be stacked, so he always has five charges and can't have more.

The last power is Shaper. Shaper gives him the ability to master biology and life in all its form and function. Shaper gives him complete control and manipulation of organic material within a massive area and also senses and understands every detail of it to the atomic level.

While he wanted to choose the Power Manipulation, but he also didn't want to make this character too overpowering on the first day. Hmmm, what should he choose?

A man was filling a CYOA that ROB sends to his email.


Now he is in the other universe and tries to have a simple life and finish the task that ROB gives him.

Try to survive for ten years.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I post this in Royalroadl as well

In a quiet little corner of Massachusetts - about a 50 miles outside of Boston - in a secluded part of the forest and mountains, camouflaged by the foliage and the snow, stood a hidden cottage.

From the outside, it looked like a simple log cabin, the kind Abraham Lincoln would live in if he had enough time to spruce it up.

On the inside, it was a well-fortified, bigger-on-the-inside-then-outside, three story house with all the necessities, including heating and electricity. It had three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a grand kitchen, a living room with a working fireplace, a dining room, and a whole floor dedicated as a library/study/workspace/torture room.

The great benefit of magic - reality is your bitch.

It was Crowley's secret home away from Hell, hidden from all demons, creatures, and angels with all the sigils and wards inscribed into its walls and its foundation. The only way to find it is to be invited or be told about it and given a key.

There was currently an Archangel enjoying a cup of hot chocolate while watching softcore porn on a laptop in front of the fireplace wearing a fluffy sweater.

Crowley did not know about this – the porn, not the Archangel.

So him teleporting in while the angel was enjoying the movie while his hands were warmed by the mug caught the demon off guard.

The angel quickly closing the laptop and burning himself with the spilled chocolate – that was just plain funny.

Harry quickly looked back and forth between the two, trying to judge the situation. "Crowley, is he a demon too?"

The Archangel responded in kind, "Crowley, why is there a child with you?"

Crowley could only rub the bridge of his nose in frustration. "I planned to introduce you two later but I guess now is better than ever. Harry, this is Gabriel, the Archangel. Gabriel, this is Harry, a boy I am taking in."

"I am in hiding Crowley – don't say my name so casually. Also, what do you mean "taking in'?"

Crowley annoyingly shook his head, "Clean up first. I need you to examine and heal the boy before we tell him everything. Meet you in the study."

"So, these are books." Harry was currently sitting on the couch without his shirt being examined by what he was told was an angel.

Gabriel could only be described as attractive. He had the sort of body that was an odd amalgamation of features that seemed to just work somehow. With a little effort, Gabriel could pass for a dashing privateer in a pirate costume or as a socialite in the right suit. Honestly, he could fit whatever role was needed in the right clothes – probably helped in his capacity as a Trickster.

All three of them were currently on the top floor of the house. It was a beautiful study: walls full and bulging with books and texts. One corner had a fireplace dedicated for reading, another corner ha a desk and an up-to-date computer system for work, and the last corner was for torture.

If Harry was more aware of the world, he would have questioned why one pair of handcuffs was pink and fluffy.

The less said about that corner, the better.

Gabriel was on his knees, eyes closed, arm over the center of Harry's chest, concentrating. Crowley stood behind him, leaning on the fireplace that extended from the first floor into the third-floor study. "What, you never saw one? You knew about demons."

Harry – still straight-faced despite everything that happened in the last few hours – calmly replied, "I heard about them from television sermons that Dursley's sometimes clicked through. Dudley was lazy, and his parents didn't read anything but the morning paper, so there was no need for them. Also, I never went to school so no, I have never seen a book."

Crowley only whistled in surprise, "Means you're illiterate as well. We will have to correct that afterward."

Gabriel just grumbled out of the corner of his mouth, "Could both of you be quiet? This is much harder than it looks."

Harry only looked back at the man in front of him, "So how exactly did an angel become friends with a demon?"

Gabriel – with his eyes still closed – chuckled, "First, please be careful with that information. I am currently in hiding as a 'Trickster'. Secondly, we ran into each other by accident in the early 18th century when Crowley was still a mere run-of-the-mill crossroads demon. I accidentally happened to kill an asshole in a befitting fashion right as his contract was ending. When Crowley's hellhounds came to get him, I was already in the middle of screwing with the poor sod. So long story short, he let me kill him, he collected the soul, we got to talking, yadda, yadda, yadda, we've been friends ever since."

Harry looked unemotionally at the angel, "You are leaving out a significant chunk of the story… Crowley tried to drag you to Hell for a promotion, didn't he?"

Gabriel took his hand off, opened his eyes, and looked back at Crowley, "What is he, psychic?"

Crowley shrugged, "Don't know, you tell me. He claims he has telekinesis and his adoptive family called him a freak."

Gabriel, stupefied, just said, "Oh."

One word responses at their best.

Crowley got the conversation back on track, "So what's the final diagnosis, doctor?"

Gabriel stood up, sighing in frustration."I did the best I could, but the injuries are simply too old. Internally, I fixed him up all neat and tidy. A constant diet of foods rich in essential vitamins and nutrients should take care of the malnutrition in a few weeks. Work and light exercise will fix up the weakness and fatigue he has as well distribute the new mass he will get. His skin is a different story – the scars and burns have to stay, and the emotional damage is done. I should warn you, x-rays will still show all your old injuries but healed up. Make sure you don't end up in a hospital, or there will be questions how you functioning at all."

Harry just nodded – no words were necessary.

Crowley nodded in kind. "Now we have three things to take care of."

Gabriel got confused at this, "Three? I thought it was just the one."

Crowley started to count off his fingers, "First, we figure out what he is; it's not vanilla flavored mortal, I can tell you that much. Secondly, we remove the curse on him; that thing is the reason he had a crappy,.." Crowley looked at Harry to confirm.

"I'll have my 7th birthday on July 31st."

"Right…crappy seven years. Third, you make him literate – that one should be easy enough for you."

Gabriel exasperated, "Indeed it should, it's an easy memory dump. Let's leave it for last. But what's this curse you keep talking about? Kids seems clean to me."

Crowley was the one confused now, "What are you, bloody daft? It's right there in the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead."

Gabriel squinted at the thing, leaning so close that it made Harry a bit uncomfortable. "Look, Crowley, I am in a way higher weight class than you, and I do not see anything."

"You didn't see the house. You didn't see where they kept him." Crowley was getting furious at this. The dark magic was clear as day, so the like of Gabriel…

The likes of angels…

Gabriel hands were up in surrender, "Look, it's not that I don't believe you, but…"

"No, no, it's not me, it's you," Crowley started to face in front of the fireplace. "The dark magic that made the curse can only be sensed by practitioners of dark magic. You may have done some dirty crap angel, but your choices and you are still inherently light. Me, I am a demon, through and through – that mark is like a freaking lighthouse to me."

Gabriel turned back to the boy and took two fingers to his forehead. A shock went through both of them instantly, causing both to fall back from each other.

"WOAH NELLY! Crowley, you bloodhound! You nabbed yourself a freaking wizard!"

"A wizard?" said Harry and Crowley at the same time.

"Don't you mean warlock?"

'No, Crowley, if I meant warlock, I would have said it. No, you found an honest to God wizard! Just think it, you are a wizard, Harry!"

Crowley just looked at the angel skeptically, "Whats's the big floppy difference? The letter 'z'?"

Gabriel just stood up and started doing a jig, "No, there is a fine line of distinction. Witches and warlocks can be broken down into three classes. The are the 'Borrowers' who make deals with demonic forces. There are the 'Naturals' who are born with it. Then there are the 'Students' who learn it through practice and training."

Crowley just chuckled, "So… Mama Crowley was a 'Natural' then?"

"Yep." Gabriel started to take a notepad from the desk to start drawing a Venn Diagram. "Now, people use spells and rituals on and off to take care of problems – like Hunters do – are none of the above since 'Students' take months or years of repeated magical exposure to become what they are. Although, a Hunter could become a 'Student' if they had the time or proclivity…"

Harry started to put back his shirt as he talked to Gabriel, "So…what are wizards?"

Gabriel got excited and pointed to his sketch, "Wizards are right here in the center of the three! They are born as 'Naturals,' they practice through life as 'Students,' and they 'Borrow' energy from the very air, earth and space around them. As a side benefit, their souls are uber-charge and fortified. If human souls are car brands from Acura to Volvo, then wizard souls are the freaking Transformers."

Harry raised his hand, "I don't get the reference."

Gabriel just put his hands on the boy's shoulders, "Harry, after we are finished here, we have a lot of catching up to do to make up for your childhood."

Crowley was just getting more and more flustered, "How have I never heard of them?"

Gabriel continued, "It's mainly because you were born too late. They used to be more common with early civilizations but their numbers started to diminish at a steady pace, either due to fear, accidents, war and the like. At some point in the 16th century, they went into some deep hiding. And when I say deep, I mean 'beyond the veil' deep. They spend years preparing and with the spells they weaved – just trust me on this, even angels can't find them. It's like they literally bent spaces in the world and made pockets for themselves. Oh, some still live in the human world, and some are even born out of ordinary humans due to recessive magic genes from some ancestor – better odds for the newborn if its on both sides of the family. But mostly, they stay hidden in their little magic land."

Crowley started to think about the situation that presented itself in front of him. "Well, this makes things easy then. With his latent abilities, we can carry out the Essentia Commutationem Ritual without any problems."

Gabriel stopped mid-jig at that. "You can't be serious. That ritual is used to transfer power between individuals. It was used to drain the life force of prisoners during wars to fuel spells."

Crowley engaged the poor angel in a magical debate at this point. He got the pad out of Gabriel's hand and began doodling, "Not if it's modified. Think about it, the matrix of the ritual circle would already break down the boy's natural defenses, allowing us access to his being. With that opened, you can hop in and remove the curse."

Gabriel just looked at the pad, "You keep saying 'we.' Why is there a 'we'?"

Harry was watching, cross-legged on the couch, head going back and forth between the two as they were talking out the finer points of this ritual. All that he was missing was popcorn – unfortunately, you can't miss what you never had.

Crowley just shrugged, "Look, the kid needs someone to take care of him, why not us?"

Gabriel just looked at the demon mortified. "Why not? Because an angel and a demon taking care of a kid is like the pilot of a bad sitcom!"

"It can be done. Besides, I want to take him in – you're just going to be the nanny."

Gabriel sighed in dearest. "Fine, but that still doesn't answer what you need the ritual for."

"Well, to make him a demon, of course. When you cleanse him, Harry and I will exchange essences to make us father and son – in spirit, of course. Although, blood will be transferred…"

Gabriel quickly checked the diagram they made so far, "That won't work. He may be a wizard, but you are still a demon, a powerful one at that…"

Crowley looked at the angel, "Are you coming on to me?"

"No jokes Crowley. He would be giving you more than you to him – the ratio doesn't work out."

Crowley took back the pad and started adding something new to the diagram, "That's where you come in. You are already going to be involved, so as long as your essence is in the mix, you would just act as an external power source."

Gabriel just kept hitting his head – gently – in annoyance against his knuckles, "Yeah, an Archangel sized one. The kid won't be able to handle it – it would be like using a dam to fill a swimming pool."

"Not if you allow your energy to fortify him."

Gabriel paused, "Wait, So…I'll be strengthening the host while you give him the filling? That…could work…"

At this point Gabriel was pacing across the room while Crowley just tapped his foot – Harry was just mesmerized by this all.

Gabriel looked back and pointed at Crowley, "You realize he will be something entirely new right?"

"Why? There have been Cambion and Nephilim in history before."

"No. This will be much worse. This would be the equivalent of both of them having a kid."

Crowley slowly put down the pad, "Which I assume never happened before."

Gabriel just kept putting his hands through his hair as of weighting some unknown options, "The closest equivalent imagined was by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon in a comic, which had a quasi demon-angel hybrid named Genesis – which is what this kid would be if he ever loses his humanity." (1)

Crowley just looked at the kid on the couch who was focusing on the demon, "So, to be clear Gabriel… In literal terms, he would be ½ human, ¼ angel, and ¼ demon. Metaphysically, he would be human in soul, angel in vessel, and demon in spirit."

The library got quiet, the crackling of fire being the only sound heard.

Gabriel quickly put his hands in front of his eyes, twisting and waving them back and forth.

"What are you doing?"

"Making sure I am not stoned. I haven't had a conversation this trippy since I accidentally ended up in Woodstock."

Crowley looked at the angel bug-eyed, "Wait, is that why that event got so crazy?"

Gabriel sheepishly tried to look anywhere but Crowley, "I…may have accelerated the process. If I don't focus, my grace 'bleeds' through. It's kind of why I have so little power in my Trickster persona - well, compared to my Archangel persona. Even as a Trickster, I got more juice than you."

"Only situationally. The magic of the crossroad contracts outclasses your reality bending any day."

"That's because you use the human soul to do so."

Harry finally interrupted, "So when are we doing the ritual?"

The demon and angel looked back at the kid on the couch. Gabriel slowly asked, "You do realize that if this ritual works, you won't be human anymore."

"Based on your conversation, it makes it seem that I was never human." Harry may have been illiterate, but he wasn't stupid – he had to be smart to survive as long as he did with the Dursley's.

Crowley decided to sit down next to the boy on the couch – the most father thing he has done in a long time. "Look, Harry – you were always human, just with magical gifts. If this ritual works, you will become part demon with a few angel blessings on the side. You would sacrifice almost everything that it would mean to be human."

Harry said just thirteen words. "What makes you think I would miss what I never did or had?"

No one talked – for what seemed like forever.

Note to self: make sure the Dursley's get Alastair as their torturer for all eternity. Crowley though to himself.

Gabriel, without the joy and bravado he has shown earlier, was first to speak, "I'll start getting the circles ready."

Crowley nodded. "Harry, if you want anything, go get something from the fridge in the kitchen. Gabriel, I have to go get the tools and supplies. Ready in an hour?"

"Make it two – drawing a modified Triquetra will take some time."

"Really, were going Celtic on this?"

Gabriel corrected, "Technically, Druid – they best understood the flow of energies, so their designs are best for this."

Crowley nodded, "Alright team, you have your assignments – Break!"

Gabriel went to the torture corner, Crowley disappeared, and Harry was just confused – although his face didn't show it.

Harry was in the kitchen since he hasn't eaten all night.

He decided to leave the mad-scientist angel alone.

He decided to try cake for the first time in his life.

It was a Chocolate Fudge Devil's Food Cake.

It was delicious.

He tried the Angel Food Cake next.

He decided it needed more chocolate.
