Hello everyone! This story is AU and something different from the other stories I have written. I am not sure what relationships there will be in it yet but the main characters are young so there is time for them. I will try to update regulary and I hope you enjoy the story =)

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter it belongs to JK Rowling and whomever she sold any rights to.


Vernon Dursley and his wife Petunia, were in the car with his sister on their way out to a peaceful dinner. Vernon was fuming with the news he was going to tell his sister. He was planning on waiting until they got to the restaurant before he told her but then thought it might be better to tell her now, as he didn't want to lose his appetite over the nasty boy.

"Last night the Petunia's vile sister's son was left on our doorstep" Vernon told Marge.

"What? The drunken good for nothings left their child on your doorstep, did they not have enough money for their drinks?" Marge asked her brother.

"They were killed" Petunia added still not sure what to think of her sister, the freak, dying and her son being left to her. She wondered if he would be a freak as well or if he would turn out normal.

"Get in a car accident because they were too drunk to drive" Marge said laughing at the pathetic people who were related to her sister-in-law.

"Yeah, they had to go get themselves killed and leave their freak of a son to us" Vernon said thinking that, that would be a good excuse as to why they now had another baby in their house.

"Poor, Dudley, having to grow up with that vile child. Vernon you should just dump him somewhere, it's not worth your time or money." Marge said giving Vernon something to think about. Vernon was so deep in thought he didn't even see the stop light go red.

"Vernon, watch out!" Petunia yelled as she saw a bus heading straight for the car. Vernon tried to turn quickly and ended up going sideways down the road before hitting a ditch and flipping the car.

The bus driver managed to stop the bus without any damage to it or the passengers and quickly called emergency services. An ambulance quickly arrived to the scene but none of the passengers on the car were wearing their seatbelt and one woman had flown through the windshield and was laying a few feet away.

One of the police officers was checking the id of the victims of the car accident and saw that there were several pictures of a baby in the man's wallet and a child seat in the back of the car. Having kids of his own, he realized the small boy may very well be with a sitter since there was not a child to be seen at the scene.

The officer called his partner over and they decided it would probably be best to go to 4 Private Drive and see if the baby was indeed with a baby sitter.

The two officers arrived at number 4 Private Drive and knocked on the door. After waiting a few minutes a middle aged woman answered the door.

"May I help you?" The baby sitter asked the officers.

"I am Officer Dylan and this is my partner Max. Do you live here ma'am?" The one officer asked.

"No sir. I am just babysitting, the owners just left for dinner about 45 minutes ago. Is this about the other child who isn't normally here?" The woman asked.

"What do you mean the child that isn't normally here?" the other officer asked rather concerned.

"When I got here tonight the Dursleys asked me if I was alright babysitting another child along with their boy Dudley. They told me that they were left with their nephew yesterday because his parents died and they were the only family the child had left. Peculiar if you ask me though, the child has been sleeping in a basket." the woman told the officers.

Dylan, the officer with the child at home, shook his head sadly, the one young boy lost his parents and now he just lost the only relatives that he had left. "Ma'am I am sorry to tell you that there was a car accident tonight and the Dursleys didn't make it."

"Those poor poor boys" the woman said breaking down into tears.

"Are you related to either of the boys?" Max asked.

"No, sir. I live down the street from them. The town gossips a lot and from what I heard the only relative that the family really has is Mr. Dursley's sister Marge. I believe they were going out to dinner with her tonight."

"She was in the accident as well." Max said to the woman.

"Oh those poor darlings! What will ever happen to them?"

"We will try to track down any family that they might have" Dylan said, hoping that they might be able to find some family and not have to send the two boys to an orphanage.

"May we see the children and get some information?" Max asked the woman.

"That's fine, that's fine. I will show you to the nursery and then call my husband and tell him that I will be later than expected." the woman said walking up to the nursery where she had put both boys in the same crib.

The officers looked around the room as the babysitter headed to the kitchen to call her husband. As Dylan looked over the crib at the two sleeping babies he saw a blonde boy and a dark haired boy. He looked up to see his partner looking at all of the pictures of the blonde haired boy in the room but not a single picture of the dark haired boy. Wondering to himself who this dark haired boy could be he took a closer look before gasping and stumbling back a step.

"Max, I think you ought to come here" Dylan said in shock as Max walked over to the crib and saw the two boys and was shocked as well once he took a close look at the little dark haired boy.

"Holy Merlin, that's Harry Potter!" Max exclaimed in a high whisper.

"I think we should inform Ted of this right away, especially after what happened to the Longbottoms this afternoon" Dylan said thinking sadly of two of his Auror comrades that had been tortured earlier in the day.

"I will give Ted a call and tell him to get down here now, you talk to the babysitter" Max said as he pulled out his cell phone. As Max stepped out in the hallway to call their supervisor, who was their chief at the muggle police station the two Auroras were working undercover at. The two were assigned under Ted because Ted was a muggle-born, and he had sufficient knowledge of both worlds, and many of his muggle relatives worked in the police department.

While Max was on the phone with Ted, Dylan went down stairs to talk to the babysitter and see if they could find something that would help to locate a relative for the boys, and figure out how Harry ended up with the Dursely's as the Potter boy has been searched for high and low since the news yesterday that the boy's parents had been killed and his godfather was still out on the loose and all of the families besides Sirius Black that the Potter will listed as suitable homes for Harry had turned up empty of the child.

The Aurors had turned up lost when it concerned the boy and they had even gone to Dumbledore who told them that the boy was safe with his relatives. Dumbledore had been questioned for several hours but nothing was ever found. Things turned even crazier with the search when they found the Longbottom's had been attacked because everyone knew that was one of the places that Harry should have been.

"Hello Tonks residence, how may I help you?" came the innocent voice of a young child.

"May I please speak to Ted please?" Max asked the young girl who knew to be Ted's daughter Nymphadora.

"Hello this is Ted" a new voice said into the phone.

"Hi Ted, its Max, sorry to be calling so late but it is important. There was a muggle accident we were called out to, the three muggles died and when we went in to find some identification we saw the man Vernon Dursley had a picture of a young boy in his wallet so we went to the house to see if the child was left with a sitter. Well this is when things got weird." Max said finally pausing to breathe.

"Weird how?" Ted asked rather curious why Max called.

"When we got to the house the sitter, a Dorthy McGrill, asked if we were there because of the child that was not normally there. Apparently a young child, the nephew of the Dursley's was left was here after the boy's parents died. Dylan and I went to see the two boys, and the one boy was the one in the pictures in the man's wallet and the other was none other than Harry Potter!"

"Harry Potter? Are you sure Max?" Ted asked worried and excited that they may have finally found the boy.

"Course I am boss, I have seen him enough times over at both your house, the Longbottom's and the Potter's houses." Max replied thinking of all the times he has spent with the boy's parents and the rest of his friends, many who have passed away in the past week or were being searched as a mass murder.

"What is the address? I will be right over." Ted said already starting to put his shoes on while Max filled him in of where he was and what they have found out so far. "See if you can find anything about why he might be there while I head over."

Max walked over to what he assumed would be the master bedroom to have a look around before Ted got to the home. As Max was wandering around and trying to see if there was anything that would indicate why young Harry was at the house he saw a piece of parchment poking out from what looked like a jewelry box. Max pulled the note out and opened it up. As Max read the letter he became livid and started storming down the stairs to find Dylan and wait for Ted.

Just as Max got to the stop of the stairs he heard Ted and Dylan talking downstairs. Max hurried down the stairs and showed Ted the letter who also became angry when he read it. "Why the bloody hell would Dumbledore do this, Lily said under no circumstances was Harry to go to Petunia!"

"What are we going to do now boss?" Dylan asked after reading the letter.

"Well Harry was supposed to go first to the Longbottom's but with what happened to poor Frank and Alice that is out of the question, that bloody bastard Sirius was supposed to be next to get him and there is no way that murdering Death Eater is getting Harry! According to the Potter's will, Andy and I are next in line I believe." Ted said thinking about young Harry and hoping that he was okay.

A loud wail started from the nursery upstairs and Dorothy headed upstairs quickly with Ted following, while Max and Dylan made the appropriate calls to both the Muggle and Magical authorities.

By the time Dorothy and Ted reached the room both boys were crying. When they got to the crib Harry and Dudley both looked at the adults still crying.

"Un Te, Un Te" Harry started calling reaching towards Ted.

"Shhh its okay Harry, Uncle Ted is here, I've got you" Ted said picking up the dark haired boy and Dorothy moved to pick up the blonde boy before looking at Ted.

"Sir, how do you know this boy?" Dorothy wondered rather confused. The Dursley's had not even told her the dark haired boy's name, just that the boy was their nephew.

"His parents were close family friends, however, we were not sure what happened to young Harry here after the tragedy of his parents." Ted said hugging Harry closely and soothing the young boy. Dorothy was about to say something else when Dylan walked in with Madame Bones and another woman that Ted knew to be from child services.

"Hello, I am Lindsey Larn from child services, are you the boy's sitter?" Lindsey said already knowing Ted and being introduced to Amelia Bones downstairs.

"Yes I am Dorothy McGrill." Dorothy answered still holding onto Dudley.

"How about we move this conversation to the living room and we can discuss what will be happening to these boys." Lindsey said in a business like voice.

As the group settled downstairs in the living room, Lindsey started right in to businesses, "I was wondering if anyone has information on the dark haired child. There is only one child registered to live in this house."

"The dark haired boy is Harry Potter, his parents were killed last night and Petunia Dursley is his maternal aunt, however there is an investigation going on as to why he is currently here because his parents will lists several homes is supposed to go to and this was not one of them" Amelia answered tensely.

"I see, well I have been unable to find any other relations for the Dursley boy since his only living aunt was also killed in the accident with the Vernon and Petunia Dursley. The boy will be sent to an orphanage tomorrow and we can put both boys in a foster home tonight until arrangements can be made in the morning." Lindsey said making notes into her notebook.

"That won't be necessary for young Harry, Ted and his wife are the next people in the Potter's will to be his guardians so I don't see why it would be a problem for him to take young Harry home tonight. The boy has been through a lot already." Amelia said in a no nonsense voice.

"Paperwork has to be filled out for Ted and his wife to have custody of Harry and we can't go against procedure so the boy will go to a foster home for the night" Lindsey said back glaring at Amelia.

"Actually I have the paperwork right here declaring Ted and Andromeda Tonks as Harry's official guardian as of three pm earlier this afternoon. While an investigation has been going on about Harry's whereabouts, the officials thought it would be best to have a guardian to make the decisions for the boy." Amelia said handing over the paperwork to Lindsey showing that Harry's guardianship was already signed over so she relented and said Ted could take young Harry home.

"Since Dudley is Harry's cousin, it would allow you to foster him for the night as Harry's guardian and we can make arrangements for the boy tomorrow." Lindsey told Ted.

"I can do that" Ted said thinking he might have to talk to his wife about adopting Dudley in the morning so the young cousin's wouldn't have to be separated. The group talked a little longer and then Dorothy and Lindsey both left, leaving Ted to talk to Amelia about the letter that was left from Dumbledore.

"Blood wards! We would have never found Harry if Petunia had not died. It would not be a bad idea to adopt Dudley and tie the wards for Harry to him, and then even Dumbledore would not be able to find Harry and he can have a normal childhood" Amelia said giving Ted even more to think about, but the Potter's had told him and his wife about the prophesy so he knew Harry would never have a normal childhood but it would prevent people like Dumbledore to interfere with the boy.

"That is a good idea Amelia, I will have to talk to Andy and Nymphadora about it first though." Ted answered back.

"I can help push the paper work through faster with the muggles if you would like. Go home and talk this over with your family and I will take over the rest of the investigation here. Call me or owl me in the morning" Amelia said smiling warmly at her friend.

"Alright" Ted said before starting a fire in the Dursley's fireplace and flooing home with the two children in his arms.
