Babies, Goblins and Dumbledore
The rest of the morning was spent making plans and playing with the boys. Sirius had changed into Padfoot, much to both of the children's delight.
"Pafoo, Pafoo," Harry squealed as he used Sirius to stand up, pulling on his fur, and then tried to wrap his tiny arms around Sirius' large canine neck. Giggling all the while, as his face kept falling into the dogs fur. "Ook Dao, Pafoo," Harry exclaimed to the adorable blond boy, who had crawled over and was trying to lift himself, just like Harry, on Sirius' other side.
"Pafoo," Draco yelled and then let go to clap and proceeded to fall on his bottom. Harry dropped to his knees and crawled over to his friend and hugged him tight as Draco let out a choked off noise of pain and sniffled as he tried not to cry in front of his friend. Draco flung his arms around his friend and held on tight, and then giggled as Harry babbled in his ear.
"Pafoo, Dao, Pafoo," Harry said again as he pulled back from Draco and the boys again began to play with the dog. Narcissa couldn't tell who was having more fun, the boys or Sirius, and she knew in that moment he would be a very loving and playful father to Harry.
Dobby popped into the room with clothes for Harry, and said, "Master Harry is to be getting ready now, Mister Sirius must be doing so also. The Goblins are be asking for Sir and Master to be going to meet with them." Dobby said and moved over to Harry and scooped him up. He carried Harry into the bathroom and snapped his fingers, creating a tiny tub inside the big bathtub, filling it with a small amount of water and then bathing his Master, and washing his hair. When Dobby was done, he dried his Master with a soft towel, since he knew it always felt better than using magic to get dry and them dressed him with a click of his fingers.
Babies were always hard to dress if you did it by hand, so Dobby always used magic for that part, and for diaper's, because they just smelled really bad. Dobby giggled to himself at that thought, as he ran a comb through his Master's hair gently, and giggled again when the messy mop would not sit in place. "Master is going to be having a lot of trouble with his hair, Master is," Dobby said to Harry as he continued to float the boy in front of him and brush out his wayward locks. Big green eyes were blinking back at him as the little boy smiled at his elf.
"Dobbsy, Dobbsy," Harry yelled as he clapped his hands, "Habby, lubs hibs Dobbsy," the little boy giggled as he continued to clap. Dobby's eyes filled with tears as he plucked the floating boy out of the air and held him close.
"Yous Dobby wills always be taking cares of yous Master Harry," the elf said smiling happily at his young charge.
"Yay," the little boy said, and giggled some more as he reached up and grabbed hold of the elf's nose, trying to pull it down into his mouth.
"Master Harry must not bes trying to eat Dobby's noses, no he must nots," Dobby said laughing and waggling a finger at his Master. Harry let go of the nose and grabbed hold of the finger, sticking it in his mouth and chomping down. Dobby held back a grimace, as young Harry started to chew but allowed his Master to continue as he walked them into the other room, where the others were waiting.
Sirius laughed as he saw Harry chewing on Dobby's finger while the poor elf was trying not to let it show how much it hurt. Arranging his face into a stern look, Sirius walked over and pulled the poor elf's finger out of Harry's mouth, "Harry you must not chew on Dobby, you will hurt him," Sirius said, and watched as Harry's eyes filled with tears.
Sirius took the boy from Dobby's arms and held him close, running his fingers through Harry's dark locks. "Now none of that, Harry, you just have to be more careful, you don't want to make Dobby cry do you?" Sirius asked.
Harry sniffled and shook his head, "Habby lubs Dobbsy," Harry said, and looked over to give the elf a watery smile.
"Dobby loves his Master Harry, yes hes does," the elf said bobbing his head, his ears flapping with his enthusiasm causing Harry to giggle. "Now Master Harry bes needing his face washed he does, and thens we be having to leaves we do."
Dobby took care of cleaning up Harry's face and then they all went down to the library. "Who will be going to the reading of the Will?" Sirius asked, as he hugged Harry to his chest.
"Only the people that are in the Will may go, that would be you Sirius, Remus Lupin, and Severus Snape, Harry" Lucius said as he read the names on the parchment and then swallowed hard as he read the last, "and Albus Dumbledore."
Severus shuffled his feet nervously as he heard Albus' name read out. He and Lily had many conversations about the old fool, once he had come back in time. Subtle hints about Dumbledore's strange behaviour, the way he looked at people as expendable. Also the way he seemed to make you feel like you needed to give towards the cause, "funding a war is not easy," he would say with that damn twinkle in his eye.
Lucius was watching Severus closely, "what did you do?" he scowled, praying to God the man didn't make any unnecessary changes to the future that would see his son and Harry dead.
"Nothing, just a few hints here and there, I was very subtle. I am Slytherin after all," Severus snapped back. "I had to make sure the old goat did not get an opening in their will. It was never read the first time around, after all."
"Lily wasn't stupid," Sirius said, "she never really trusted Dumbledore, she said he was too interested in the wrong things. She could never abide how he would just sit back and barely punish us when we did some really horrible things. We thought she was crazy, and we were just glad we could get away with so much, we never gave it much thought."
"Yes, well, now you know better," Severus sneered.
"Severus," Lucius spoke his voice soothing, "the past is the past, and besides, you have not told Sirius all the things you did for revenge, yet." Lucius chuckled as Severus' mouth twitched up at the sides.
"Indeed," he replied, he would have fun with those, as time went on. What they were doing in the past was important, more important that anything else, but Severus still decided that he could change a bit of his own destiny along the way. As long as it was subtle and didn't catch anyone's attention, and he avoided that dreaded Dark Mark.
Sirius was spluttering in the background as he listened to the two men, he was dying to know what Severus had done to change things. Then a thought came to Sirius, "Hey wasn't there a nickname we used to call you? Sniv..." Sirius yelped, his hands going to his ass as he tried in vain to pull his pants out of the crack. How the hell had he gotten a wedgie and what was he about to say. The thought slipped from his mind and as he lost the trail of the thought he was able to pull his pants out of his butt.
He looked suspiciously at Severus and Lucius who were outright laughing, and then to Narcissa who had her hand over her mouth as her shoulder shook with her own mirth. "What the heck was that?" Sirius asked.
"That," Severus sneered, "was just one of my many, many plots of revenge for the Marauders despicable behaviour towards me, in the past." That caused Narcissa to actually laugh out loud.
"Oh Severus, that is just perfect," she giggled, and when Sirius gave her a disapproving look she just glared right back and said, "you deserved it, cousin."
"How can I deserve something I have no memory of?" he asked, baffled and rather annoyed at the whole thing. The others just laughed at his expression.
The clock struck one, and Dobby popped in with Harry, while Severus and Sirius got up and ready to go. Severus put his hands in his robes and pulled out two bottles of potions, and handed one to Sirius, "drink this," he commanded, "it will protect you from being Obliviated," he said to Sirius' expression.
"No need to be drinking nasty potions, Sirs, Dobby is being able to protect yous from any and all wizarding magic, as long as it to protect his Master Harry Potter, Sirs," the elf said, again his ears flapped as he nodded his head, causing Harry to giggle, and grab for them.
"Elf's can do that?" Sirius asked.
"Of course, Sirs, elf's is being able to do what ever it takes to be protecting their Masters, Sirs," Dobby said.
"Well that will come in handy, considering I had to make this potion to stop the headmaster from trying to wipe my memory a few times," Severus said, sounding somewhat relieved.
"Dobby can be keeping Sirs safe from the Dumbleydores, no needs to worries, Sirs, Dobby can be protecting you from two of the threes of the, unforgivable's he can bes," Dobby scrunched up his face, deep in thought and then muttered to himself, "Dobby is not sures why he cans be doing this, as other elf's can'ts be doing so, maybe it is because they don'ts be having the wonderful, powerfuls, Harry Potter as theirs Master."
Severus and Lucius shared a look, both saying without words, that they would have to figure out what was happening with Dobby.
Severus, Sirius, Dobby and Harry, stepped through the Floo, and thanks to the Minister and the head Goblin, they were able to Floo directly into the meeting room at the bank. This was unheard of for Goblins to allow such things, so they were all wondering again why this was happening. They were greeted by Ragnok, the Head Goblin.
"This way, please take a seat," Ragnok said, "we are just waiting for Albus Dumbledore," he sneered the name, "to appear. When he gets here, I will need a small amount of blood from young Mr Potter, to verify who his is, the Will, will only open with blood."
"Dobby will be getting that for the Goblin, Dobby will not allow anyone to hurt his Master, no he won't." The Goblin seemed to smile at this, though it looked rather scary, Sirius thought.
At that moment there was a knock on the door and another Goblin, lead in Albus Dumbledore. "Thank you Griphook, that will be all," Ragnok said. Griphook bowed and then left the room without a word.
Dumbledore seemed to take in his surroundings, and then his eyes settled on Harry, and an almost greedy look came over his face, before he quickly smothered it. That look was not lost on the other occupants of the room.
"Please be seated," Ragnok said, as privacy wards went up and around the walls of the small office. "We are all here to witness the reading of the Potter Will, Dobby if you please." Dobby stood and took Harry from Sirius' arms, he walked over to the desk, where Ragnok held out the thick parchment with the Potter seal. Dobby waved his hand over little Harry's finger and a small drop of blood hit the seal. The light was so bright as the blood vanished into the seal and with a snap the seal broke and the light ceased.
Dumbledore was a bit annoyed at the stupid elf, if they had done it the wizard way, he was sure he could have stolen a bit of the boy's blood. He was being stopped at every turn, trying to get a hold of the damn child, and he was getting more and more aggravated as time went on. He was also annoyed that he had not been able to stop the Will from being read, at least he still had the keys to the vaults.
Ragnok cleared his throat and started to read, "I, James Potter, do hereby declare this to be my true last Will and Testament..." Sirius' mind started to drift as the Goblin read through all the preliminary, and totally boring stuff, that certified that both Lily and James were in their right mind and this is what they wanted. His thoughts were running through the memories of his godson again, and all he was made to suffer, and he felt himself starting to growl.
Severus elbowed the damn mutt, harder than was necessary to get his attention just as Ragnok got to the important stuff, "all monetary, properties and holdings are to go to our son Harry James Potter, to be put in trust until he comes of age. Vault 689 is to be used to pay for all of Harry's needs, up to and including his daily upkeep and schooling at the school of his and his godfather, Sirius Blacks choice. Harry Potter is to be put in the care of his Godfather, Sirius Orion Black, without interference or disruption. Let it be know for all, that Sirius Orion Black, was NOT the secret keeper for our family. It was Peter Pettigrew, who is a rat Animagus. Let it be known that Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore was told of this change, and if he has done nothing to clear Sirius Orion Black, he be from this day forward, forever known as enemy to the Potter line."
Gasps were heard from all in the room as Ragnok, stopped and looked up at his audience, "Mister Dumbledore, as enemy to the Potter line you are hereby removed from this reading, and are to have no contact with Harry James Potter. It is stated that when it comes time for Harry James Potter to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, you will have no contact with the child and all dealings with him, will be made through Professor Filius Flitwick, so states, Lily Evans Potter. If you go against any of these rulings you will be removed as Headmaster and sentenced to two years in Azkaban. That is all." With that he clicked his fingers and Griphook entered the room, "please escort Mister Dumbledore from the bank."
As Dumbledore was lead out of the room, Sirius turned to Severus and whispered, "did you have anything to do with that?" Severus just inclined his head slightly and sighed in relief that Lily had actually listened to his recommendation.
