28th July 1991 
Diagon alley
"Hadrian are you bringing that snake along?"
James asked his newfound son.
"Why not? She doesn't bite, she's pretty too."
"Nice to know you think I'm pretty."
"Uma shut it."
Harry replied quickly. Lily looked a little hesitant while Jonas outright stared at the snake.
"Um ok Harry welcome to diagon alley!"
Lily changed the topic, coming out of the alley they apparated into. Harry faked an amazed look, internally rolling his eyes. 
"Mrs potter what's that giant building!"
"It's gringotts it's the wizarding bank. It's run by goblins."
"Goblins?"
"Have you heard of them before brother?"
"Yeah fat long ears short-"
James snickered at Harry's horrible description of them.
"Maybe you should meet them first."
They went inside, Harry faking amazed looks. 
James walked to one of the goblins.
"Potter vault please."
He handed over the key and the group of 4 took the cart down to the vault, Harry keeping a good grip on Uma while yelling the whole way down, not that he was the only one, jonas was shouting , yaying.
"Here you go, take as much as you want! You can take anything that catches your eye."
James handed a sack to Harry and Jonas. Harry could tell there was an extension charm on it, as well as a feather-light charm. 
Harry was mildly surprised at the sheer amount of gold, before facepalming at his brother who was shoving money into his sack. Harry threw a good amount of gold inside, while charming a small bag he hid and dumping as much gold as he could inside.
It's free money after all, might as well take advantage of it.
Harry spotted a black leather book, it seemed to be a diary, and it had the name Tom riddle on it. 
"Huh might as well."
Harry took it, he saw a few more treasures around, such as a dragon scale pendant that increased its wearers magic power, a pheonix feather and for some reason a basilisk fang. He took a book that had the history of the potters before going outside, he kept the bag in his jacket while throwing a few more handfuls of gold in the sack. 
Lily drowned at the meagre amount of money Harry had taken.
"Hadrian you know you can take more. You're not imposing on us, we have more vaults anyway."
Harry smiled and shook his head.
"It's alright mrs potter!"
"God it's so painful having to act like a nice kid. Let me go to Hogwarts faster."
(As I'm a lazy ass)
Lily brought the two boys around, buying everything on the Hogwarts list while James went to get their books. Lily had smacked Jonas upside the head when he attempted to get a diamond cauldron.
"Mom do we have to buy robes? I'm the boy who lived can't I wear whatever I want?"
Harry groaned. Lily and James treated him well, so did Jonas, but this ego of his was really annoying. The worst thing was no one punished him for it.
They entered madam malkins and lily had to bring Jonas for an interview. 
"Hadrian when you're done please wait for us here we'll be back as soon as possible."
"Ok."
"What she means is we'll be back late"
When he was being measured he saw a blonde and a dark skinned boy. 
"What you staring at!"
The blonde boy asked Harry.
"Did you know your hair looks like a helmet?"
Harry replied. The blonde boy looked taken aback while the other boy burst into laughter.
"Pfft dray I told you you do your hair too much even this boy sees it."
The dark skinned boy extended his hand.
"Nice to meet you I'm Blaise zabini and this helmet guy is draco Malfoy."
"Oh you're pure bloods."
"Yeah and you?"
Harry rolled his eyes.
"Don't ask please, I rather not remember that idiot family who decided it was smart to throw their second child to their muggle siblings for extra attention on the twin and fetching him 10 years later."
Both boys looked shocked. Madam malkins nearly dropped her equipment hearing that.
"Hold up a magical family abandoning a kid?!?!"
"The dark ages was better."
The dark ages was when Voldemort ruled, and the birth rate and children actually growing up was few and far between. Thus whenever a child is born they'll be treated like kings, their every whim answered and it was barbaric to even hit a child.
"Well my muggle family were nice to me, and my aunt knew of the wizarding world so she taught me as much as she could."
"Woah woah woah which family is that?"
"The potters."
Draco spluttered, stepping down from the stool.
"Ohhhh the reporters are gonna have a field day."
Harry shushed him.
"Keep it a secret for now? I need it as a secret card so I can knock them down in one blow."
Blaise looked impressed.
"Looks like we have a fellow slytherin here dray."
"Wait a minute is that a starsun snake-"
The two boys stared at the white snake. As it was sunny the snake had camouflaged and they only realised now when the cloud covered the sun.
"Ahhhh isn't that a really rare snake???"
"Oh it randomly appeared in my back yard."
They stared at Harry with incredulous looks.
"I'm not lying."
Harry saw lily and Jonas about to enter the shop and quickly whispered.
"Don't be surprised."
"Huh what-"
"Brother! Don't talk to these slimy snakes!"
Jonas rushed over, pulling Harry away. Uma hissed at him.
"But they're humans not snakes. The only snake here is uma."
Harry replied, putting on his naive innocent face.
Draco and Blaise choked at his fake act, and hid a laugh when they saw that Jonas feel for it.
"Whatever brother let's leave they're bad news."
Jonas pulled him out, Harry giving a little wave while lily payed for the robes.
"Jonas aren't you getting your robes?"
"I refuse to be breathing the same air as those future Slytherins, I'll get them another day."
"How sad, you're looking at one now."
