"He's one of them, Petunia," the man said. "He'd be better off in an orphanage or maybe we could send him to the freak show."
The young woman frowned at that and headed to see what was going on. Petunia saw her and picked the basket up and shoved the basket into blonde woman's surprised hands.
Tossing a piece of paper into the woman's face, the man said, "Tell the head freak, we won't have any of this nonsense. If you want him raised, do it yourself or sell him to the circus."
The couple went into their house and slammed the door. The young blonde saw that she was now holding a baby. She picked up the piece of paper and quickly read it.
Addressing herself, as well as the baby, she whispered, "So that's what is going on. Those two must have thought I'm a wizard. They couldn't be more wrong if they tried. Now, I have to deal with Harry Potter's future."
The young woman's mind snapped back to the present as she approached her temporary home in England. It was a Victorian mansion with surrounding grounds. She entered her house and set the baby's basket down on a table in the foyer and grabbed a chair to sit down on.
Brushing a strand of hair away from the lightning scar, the woman muttered, "I can do many things that humans can not, but the one thing I can't do is have a child by normal means. My battle is over, Harry. But, I can see that yours is about to begin. I guess I should adopt you. Maybe I can get him to act as a godfather.
The woman chuckled at the thought. "Him? A godfather?" Maybe."
The woman reached up and touched the blue heart on her choker. She then dropped her fingers to her armband and touched the blue heart there.
"I was going to seal my memories away, so I could live as a human," the woman said to Harry. "But I think that in raising you, I should keep my memories intact."
The woman picked up the basket and headed for the bedrooms that were located on the second floor. The woman smiled down at Harry.
"Being a mother is one skill I can't yell 'Honey Flash' and acquire. The lovely warrior Cutey Honey is retired. Let's see how well I can do as a mother. I hope I'm up to this."
Honey Kisrigi used her ACU to form a crib for Harry. Putting the baby in the crib, Honey started making calls to a lot of her government friends. Due to her contacts, she was able to bypass a lot of the bureaucracy that involved child adoption.
Hanging up thephone, Honey smiled. "Well Harry, you'll still keep the last name of Potter. But, I'm now your adoptive mother. I might not be a wizard, but I think I can keep you protected."
A frown crossed her face. "I hope I can. I guess I should minimize the use of my powers. No more shapechanging and very little use of pulling things out of the air."
