Chapter 2 - Signs

Nearly four years went on...

The switching of personalities was always noted by Petunia and Vernon . The boy who's crying suddenly stopping crying , the calm composed face of a experienced man on the face of a baby , the boy who was sleeping waking up suddenly and doing excercise and so on...

It became more known with the incident that happened yesterday -

Dudley was playing with his friends Aaron and Peter . Harry was playing with his toy in the lawn. Due to something a fight broke between Dudley and his friends. Dudley was hit by Aaron and he fell down. As Peter was going to punch Dudley, a fist met his face and he was thrown to the side as if a vehicle hit him, before Aaron could recover of the shock a fist met his stomach and he was on his knees crying. Dudley looked at his saviour with a joyous face "Joe" he muttered.

Harry or 'Joe' lent a hand to Dudley and pulled him up. " Never hurt my cousin" Harry said to the 2 children who were wiggling due to pain. Harry looked at Dudley with a calm face ,"let's warm up cousin, you fell in a single punch" and he jogged. Dudley quietly followed him.

The incident created trouble for the Dursley household. The parents of the children complained about it to Vernon and Petunia. Even though the mistake was in their children's part , the injuries both boys incurred on their face and stomach were so much that they had to see a doctor. But what was most interesting was that Harry rejected hitting them , but there were witnesses seeing Harry hit the boys.. The parents accused Harry to be lying till Dudley came into his rescue and told it was Joe who rescued him not the meek useless Harry. The incident soon ended with Harry apologizing even though he did nothing wrong .

That night Vernon summoned the entire family in the dining hall and questioned the boys . He accused Harry as a liar and scolded him for forcing Dudley to tell lie. Dudley came into his rescue and repeated what he had told earlier, that it was Joe who rescued him. Vernon then sent off Harry and had a conversation along with the family.

Harry went on to his room under the stairs and sat in the bed , opposite the mirror . Then like a flutter his eye colour changed in the mirror from and it changed to red irises. "I'm in trouble because of Dudley. I didn't do anything but got all of their scolding, I had to apologise for something that I didn't do. And that bully Dudley sees me like a pest" . The reflection had no change in emotion as Harry went on with complaints and suddenly the eye colour changed to green as the door knob was tilted.

"We are going somewhere tomorrow. Sleep early." Vernons voice echoed through the room and ended when the door shut.

Next day

The Dursleys along with Harry started an early morning trip which ended in front of a house that a board at its entrance. It was ' Dr.Isaac MD/DO'. As Harry looked at the board his eyes flickered red. As they went inside they were welcomed by a Middle age man. He looked at the family and invited them inside a room with a writing desk and 2 chairs in the middle facing each other. Vernon asked Petunia and Dudley to sit outside and went inside the room with Harry and soon came outside.

As the family entered I noticed the look on the face of the young boy with black hair and green eyes. It was a fearful look as if he was scared of something.

Soon the above said boy came in with his uncle inside the room. The tall stout man had called me yesterday and told me of the recent happenings and some doubts of his on from the last 3 years and the tragedy of boys parents. He believed the boy was troubled and I asked him to bring the boy here. The man called Vernon left , leaving the boy and me alone.

"Hello there young man, how are you? " in the hope of starting a long conversation I began my part. The boy stumbled and and said "H...he... hello"

.He still had the fearful look in his eyes. "What should I call you , Harry or Joe?" As if magic the eye flickered to red. "Tsk.Tsk.Tsk..A 5 year old boy taken to a psychiatrist . How much has the society fallen.. well you may call me Joe , Joe Blake". It was a surprise for me , even though I have seen many patient's, this is a first. The meek scared boy turning into a adult in matter of seconds. Eyes changing colour like magic .

" Why did that fat oaf bring me year. Just a single loose tounge from the dog created all this. Seems like he needs to be educated on how to behave" . I had no words to utter after hearing what the boy said. Just what is this child saying. His eyes flickered to green and rest of the conversation was just casual and I got nothing out from him.

Soon I sent the boy out and had conversation with the adults. "The boy is in a bit of trouble ", I told them. They nodded as I continued "This seems to be a rare case of D.I.D or Dissosiative Identity Disorder. The boy doesn't seem to understand what's going on and only has a blackout at some moments and when he wakes up he always gets praised for something he never did." The faces of the couple changed as if seeing a ghost. "Then the one who always helped us and played with Dudley was the other personality and not Harry!" Petunia muttered with a shocking face. " Can this be cured?" asked Vernon. " A personality is created within a person when he goes through extreme emotions. For this new personality, the only way they can come in is when the same emotion comes in again. So only thing you need to make sure is that , the boy doesn't go through the same set of emotions continuously or the other one will come out again"

Neither the docter not the couple new what Harry had was not DID but it was another soul getting inside his body .

<3rd pov , last night>

Soon after Vernon went outside Harry's room , Harry got out looked at Dudley . As Dudley saw the red eyes , he understood the meaning and went inside the room and closed the door .

"I'm sorry cousin. It fell out of my mouth when my parents claimed this good for nothing saved me ". "It's ok, what happened has already happened. If your parents ask you if I ever come out again , you must say that you never saw me after the fight with Aaron and Peter" Harry said. " What.Are you leavi g cousin. Please I won't have a slip of toungue again." Dudley begged him." It's not that Dudley, if what I'm believing is correct, then we might visit a psychiatrist tomorrow. So I won't come out frequently to avoid suspecions. I also want to make this idiot do proper excercises to make the body fit. And scare him a bit that if he slips something tomorrow it will be hell for him the rest of the life"

From then on Joe Blake only came out when Harry slept did some work outs and did scheming with Dudley . Both of them befreinded the kids whose brothers were gang members and got to know them and their professions. Joe often used violence as a means to an end on others and Harry could only watch it helplessly from the inside.

The first 2 chapters are just a simple indroduction to Joe Blake and his charector. Soon Harry Potter will meet Hagrid and it everything before would be the same as in the books as Joe only comes after everyone sleeps. Only difference will be Joe will be quite healthy and had already unlocked his magic.

some of his doings are listed below as creating scenes to show them is time consuming and unnecessary.

He could control animals and made them fight each other and could speak to snakes and fed them with birds he controlled. He had a army of snakes around the House and used them to steal money from nearby houses. He always moved as if he had huge plans . One day he controlled a man into robbing a bank(it will be written in the next chapter and it will also end the time skip.
