Familiars!

Harry glances at his three eleven year old son's standing in the foyer of their house making sure that each of them has what they need before they leave. Tom smirks at his Daddy's actions wishing that they could see the lighter side of him more often, but he gets that their Daddy has a lot to deal with and does his best. Harry takes each of their small hands in his own and then apparates them to the place he went to with Hagrid when he first found out about magic........

DIAGON ALLEY!

Tom glances around noting down everything that he is seeing for the first time, while Damon's eyes search for a book shop so that he can get his hands on the new book he has wanted for ages, on the other hand Basilius is keeping an eye on everyone not liking being so out in the open when he knows that some might want to harm them.

Harry smiles at his son's actions wishing that he was able to let their sires see them like this. It is blessing that Harry believes that they are watching them from above, but it is also a curse because he wants them by his side. Not just looking over him and their children.

"Come on my little ones." Harry commands them wanting to get his business with Gringotts over with so that he can spoil his sons for a while.

Basilius takes his Daddy's hand in his own not wanting to get lost, but also needing to be close to the one he trust when around so many people. Tom smiles at his youngest triplets actions and follows closely beside them with Damon right beside him. Damon curiously watches scanning the area wondering where they are going to now.

Harry enters Gringotts with his three wide eyed children who have never been in the Gringotts bank before. He has taken them into magical alley's all over the world, but he never let them deal with money when they were that young. Harry glances around the room smirking slightly when all the other witches and wizards mouths drop open at the sight of their runaway hero.

Draco comes out of his account holders office to notice the chaos of wild chatter with his twins holding each of his hands. Alexio holding his right hand and Alejandro holding his left hand. His eyes finally land on the one and only .........

Harry Potter.....

His old schoolyard nemesis.

Basilius quickly snuggles in closer to Harry's side not liking that all eyes are on them. Judging them when they don't know anything about what they have been through. Especially when it comes to Harry and how much he struggles each and every day to carry on.

Tom and Damon glance at their youngest triplet understanding his method of thinking straight away. They eye each other for a moment before glaring at the people around them hoping that they get the silent message to leave them the hell alone.

Some of them shiver from the sheer hate and power coming from two of the three young boys at present and go back to whatever they were doing before Harry walked in with his children. Harry lets out a sigh of relief and then turns to his three sons and smiles at them so that Tom and Damon know that they did the right thing. Although, both of them will probably get an ear full about how to act infront of others when they get home.

Draco on the other hand is making his way over to the small family not paying any attention to the warning signs that are telling him to leave them alone. He wants to see what has become of his old nemesis and how on earth he has three child and who with. It doesn't make sense to the Malfoy Lord as to why the Harry Potter who wanted nothing to do with the wizarding world is back.

Harry feels Draco's eyes on him and he can tell that is someone that he doesn't want to see. He turns around to see the one and only Draco Fucking Malfoy standing infront of him. The last person he will ever want to see and the one he is.

It's not like Harry hates Draco. It's just that it hurts so much to see a nearly carbon copy of Lucius Malfoy infront of him. Even though Tom, Damon and Basilius look a bit like Lucius and have some of the same mannerisms they aren't so detailed or obvious as they are in his sons.

"If it isn't the one and only boy-who-ran-away-after-winning-the-war." Draco snides bringing everyone eyes back on them.

Each wizard and witch wants to know what Harry's going to do and if he will answer any question about why he disappeared the way he did. On the other hand the goblin's just want this to end so that they can get back to works. As much as the goblin's can stand Harry they want to be able to keep on schedule.

"Don't do this Draco. It's not worth it anymore." Harry tells him looking at the children with them.

Draco glowers at Harry not getting why he is being a bigger man know when he used to play with him in the past. But, he can't understand the loss in the other's eyes. It spikes his curiosity up a notch to the need to know more about what happened to Potter during the time that he was away.

"Why are you back then?" Draco asks with wary eyes.

"I am the new DADA Professor and I never left the wizarding world just Hogwarts." Harry explains to Draco confusing him even more, since he believes that Harry loved the place more than anything else.

"Daddy?" Basilius does the big puppy dog eyes at Harry with his arms raised in the air.

Harry smiles at his youngest and smallest son. He picks him up and Basilius wraps his legs around Harry's waist, while Tom and Damon stand close to each side of Harry protecting him and their adorable little triplet.

"Well well Potter, who is the whore you got pregnant?" Draco chimes out a smirk on his face as he holds his hands over his children's ears so they don't hear him.

Harry glares at his old school yard rival wishing that he could rub the truth in his pathetic face. But, he knows that he can't because of the damn old man and what he will do to his sons if he ever finds out who their sires are. Draco shivers at the look on Harry's face as he has never seen his old enemy so pissed and utterly dark.

"Their sires passed away. Not that it any of your business Malfoy." Harry whispers barely loud enough for the other man to hear.

Draco eyes Harry with his mouth wide open. He really is curious now who on earth these sires are. He has no clue that they are closer to home than he will probably like.

"Sorry, I didn't know." Draco apologise to all four of them not liking the looks his old enemy's triplets are sending him.

"No one does. Come along Tom, Damon and Basilius." Harry tells his children and Draco can hardly believe that Harry has named one of his children after the Dark Lord by using the muggle name he hated more than anything else.

Draco ushers his twins out of Gringotts hardly believing what has just happened. He wishes that he could be friends with the other, but he knows he blew that during school. He can only hope that they can be civil with each other if both their children are going to be at the same school.

Harry approaches the desk where Griphook is working. The goblin look up from his work and smile darkly at the other infront of him since he knows more about the past between Harry and his husbands than most wizards and witches do.

"It has been to long Griphook." Harry greets the goblin with a similar, while his triplets stare at the small creature in wonder.

Griphook grins at his old friends childrens wonder and remembers the first time Harry meet him. He was the same age his children back then and so naive. But, he is no longer that naive young boy and Griphook can tell now that Harry Potter is back the wizarding world is going to wish they left him the hell alone in the muggle world.

"It has indeed Harry. What can I do for you?" Griphook asks Harry and the triplets glance to their Dad wondering what on earth they are hear for.

"Just need to get out some money today. I will come back another time to sort everything else out which I didn't have time to all those years ago." Harry explains to his old goblin friend before smiling down at his young triplets.

Griphooks smiles fondly at the family, but he knows just how much the young man infront of him has suffered. The loss of his husband's destroyed something inside of him, but he can see just how much their children help fill that hole in his heart.

Harry leaves the bank with an extendable bag full to the brim with wizarding world money and his sons holding onto his robes making sure that they don't get lost. The triplets glance at the bag with wonder shining in their eyes. Harry smiles remembering their reactions to the ride to his vaults.

"Come on you three, lets get the shopping done and then get home." Harry tells them and the three look at him in confusion, since they thought that they were only coming to gringotts today.

"Daddy, why don't others know about Papa and Dada?" Basilius asks innocently as he feel asleep when Harry told them about their sires.

Harry smiles sadly at his sons when one looks at him with hopeful eyes and the other two with sad puppy eyes. Basilius drops the subject the moment sees the longing and sadness in his Daddy's and older brothers eyes. Harry hugs the three of them close to him not wanting to let them go.

"Let's get this over with quickly." Harry tells them and his three sons nod in agreement.

The shopping is down right boring and annoying. Ten minutes into it Harry knew that his triplets were not going to enjoy it and had to promise to take them to get familiars as soon as they were done getting their school supplies. He is thankful that they agreed to it.

"Daddy can we get our familiars now?" Tom asks with a small smile playing innocent.

Harry smiles at his son knowing that his sons have him wrapped around their little fingers, but he doesn't care one bit. He will spoil them rotten like any parent should do with their children. He does it more because of the fact that they don't have their sires to spoil them as most other children do.

"Okay lets go get your familiars and then head home for hot chocolate." Harry tells them knowing that he doesn't need to ask them since their favourite drink is hot chocolate.

"Yay!" The three of them shout at the same time earning them a disapproving scowl from madam mankin.

Harry bows his head apologetically before leaving madam mankins with his children holding onto his robes still. Basilius smiles innocently at his two older brother and they do the same to him. Harry knows that they are looking forward to this and can only pray that they will not cause too much mayhem in the shop.

Harry pulls his sons closer to him the moment they enter kocktrum alley, since the place has gotten more dangerous since the dark lords fall. Harry smiles sadly at the sex shop remembering something from the past he wishes he hadn't. It's not the shops fault, but he misses them so much and nothing can fully heal the holes in his heart that were left when his husbands were killed.... not even his beloved triplets.

"Dad are we going?" Damon asks dragging Harry out of his memory like he planned as he saw his Dad's masks start to crack.

"Yes sorry my beloveds. I just needed a moment." Harry tells his children and they smile at him eyes showing a slight sadness for what their Dad is suffering through.

Tom, Damon and Basilius rush into the magical pet shop before their Daddy wanting to get their familiars as soon as possible. Harry walks into the shop behind them chuckling to himself at his son's actions. He loves how much they are like him sometimes.

Harry glances around the shop, while still keeping an eye on his overactive children. Damon smiles feeling his Daddy's eyes on him and his brothers. But, he understands that he worries about them, especially as he lost their sires during the war in Britain.

"Daddy!" Basilius shouts from right at the far left hand side ten minutes after they get into the shop.

Harry eyes go straight to his youngest son to see him over at the snake area. He smiles fondly telling Tom and Damon that he is going to see what Basilius has found, then he walks away from them. Tom and Damon shake their heads with small smirks on their lips getting that their Daddy worries about them to much for his own good health.

"What is it Bas?" Harry asks as soon as he gets to his son.

Basilius grins at his Daddy and points out the rainbow coloured baby basilisk. Harry shakes his head with a small yet somehow sad smile on his lips. He knew the day might come when one of his children reminded him of his most dominant husband, but he never expected it to be his baby Basilius.

Thought the naming of his youngest probably should have gave him some warning.

'Who are you?' The rainbow snake asks Harry and Basilius.

Basilius grins at the snake infront of him, but not liking the fact that it is in such a horrible cage. Snakes are meant to be free not locked up. Harry loves how all three of his children have his gift, even though it will make their lives a little bit harder. Especially with how narrow minded some people are.

'I am Basilius, I want to take you as my familiar.' The youngest Potter tells the snake and Harry just stares at his son proudly.

The rainbow basilisk hisses that sound somewhat like a chuckle. She has never been around a speaker before. It is one of the most old and precious gifts from Salazar Slytherin's line. Harry knows that he is distantly related to the founder, but one of his children's sires was more closely related than he.

'Okay young speaker.'

'Do you have a name?' Harry asks her shocking the snake even more.

'Yes it's Sica.' Sica tells them wondering if she will meet anymore speakers.

'Spica, that is my Daddy Harry.' Basilius tells his new snake proudly as he takes her out of her cage and she wraps herself around his arm as she is only a baby.

The owner walks over to them glaring at the fact that someone has dared to remove one of the most dangerous and poisonous snakes from it's cage. He cannot believe what is infront of him though. He has been a big fan of Harry Potter ever since he found about him being a parselmouth.

"Excuse me Mr Potter, but why has the boy taken the most poisonous snake known to man out of it's cage?" The owner asks catching both Harry and his youngest off guard.

Harry has his wand pointed at the man quicker than anyone else in the shop can notice. Basilius tugs on his Daddy's robe to let him know that everything is okay. Harry quickly puts his wand away and apologise to the owner for his rash behaviour.

"Dad me and Tom have found our familiars as well." Damon tells Harry as he walks over with a pure black bird of prey resting on his shoulder.

Harry eyes the bird of prey giving it a silent warning about protecting his son. The bird of prey shrills and Harry smiles liking the bird more than a couple of seconds ago. The owner looks at them in shock and is almost falls over when Tom walks over with a pure white owl on his shoulder.

"He reminds me of Hedwig." Harry lets slip out as he pets the small owl who shrills happy at the attention.

Tom, Damon and Basilius smile glad that their Daddy is happy with their choices in familiars. The owner glances at each boy wondering who was able to get close enough to the boy-who-lived to have such beautiful children with him.

"Have you picked out their names?" Harry asks his two eldest sons forgetting all about the owner standing infront of them with his jaw practically on the floor of his shop.

"Yeah his name is Luxus." Damon tells his Father and Harry knows straight away that it is meant as a tribute to one of his sires.

Harry pulls his son into a one arm hug. Tom and Basilius join in. Others in the shop wonder about why a name like that will get that sort of reaction out of their old saviour.

"Daddy I named my owl Malio." Tom tells Harry and he holds all three of them closer to him.

"Excuse me but I did ask why you have taken the most dangerous snake in this establishment out of it's cage." The owner chimes in ruining the moment between and father and child.

Harry glances at the man wondering why on earth he would ask such a stupid question. Most know that he is a parselmouth so it shouldn't shock them that his sons are as well. It comes from two of their three blood lines after all.

"Because it is now my youngest familiar." Harry tells the man giving him a look that tells the owner that he better not say a word about it.

The owner nods not wanting to anger the wizarding world's saviour over a snake for his son. Tom shakes his head knowing that he must have got that from one of their sires since he doesn't usually act that way. Basilius smiles to himself understanding why his Daddy used that look, while Damon gently strokes Luxus' feathers.

Harry quickly pays for his son's familiars and the equipment and food that they will need before leaving with his son's holding onto his robes so that they don't get lost in such a nasty place.
