CHAPTER FOUR
Groaning silently to himself Harry slowly pulled himself out of the water before transformed back into his now completely drained and aching human body. Unfortunately even with all the exercise and preparation he had done he hadn't been able to get to America before the exhaustion hit him' though on the upside he had been able to make it pretty far from Azkaban.
In fact, since he had first jumped in the ocean at Azkaban, Harry had been swimming none stop for almost four hours and after getting lost twice had made it to the coast of Iceland; which despite the name, from what Harry could see, was very green. But all of this constant swimming, with no breaks what so ever, had left Harry completely and utterly exhausted; which left Harry where he was now.
Slowly Harry pulled himself up from the collapse position he had taken when he reverted back to his human form. Before using the little magic, that he could without passing out, and dried himself off trying to make himself look at least a little more presentable. So that he would stand out as much as he already did. That done Harry walked forward dragging his feet in pure fatigue as he did so; he was looking for a place he could recuperate at.
After stumbling around for a bit Harry was fortunate enough to find an abandon broken down cabin before he ran into anyone. Because honestly in the state he was in, even after trying to make himself more presentable, Harry was sure they would run away scream at the sight of him; which was something Harry really didn't need at the moment.
So after thanking Merlin for his luck, or at least the stroke of luck he was having at the moment, Harry dragged his aching, now throbbing, body inside. Once he was inside Harry immediately began to check around to see if anyone was there, or if there was anything dangerous in the room he was in. Seeing no one or anything that could Harry him Harry promptly passed out into a deep sleep; on the floor using his tattered cloak as a blanket.
Stretching slightly Harry began to wake up. Once he was fully up Harry looked around the cabin he had crashed in the night before; taking a much closer look then he did the night before. What he saw when he did this caused Harry to be both disgusted and deliriously happy. Disgusted because the house was trashed beyond believe. The floor he had been laying on covered in at least seven inches dust, mold, and slime. Not only that but there was broken down doors, completely shattered windows a sinking in roof and waterlogged walls; all of which were the positives about the house he was in at the moment.
On the other had he was deliriously happy because he was finally free of the hell hole he had been forced into and no matter how bad his surroundings looked it was a million times better than what Azkaban had been like. All because he was finally free.
Finally free, that thought echoed in Harry's head repeatedly and caused him to jump up from the spot he had been laying the ground. This same thought also nearly caused him run to the door of the cabin he was hiding in; in fact he was right at the door way when he stopped.
What caused Harry stop was the fact that he had recalled something very important right before he ran out the door. What he recalled was the fact that he had just been in Azkaban prison. Surly he looked like hell and on top of that he must have people looking for him by now. I mean obviously at least someone from the wizarding world must of figured out he was gone by now; and if they hadn't then Harry honestly didn't know if he should be happy or extremely sad.
Nodding his head to himself at this train of thought, and knowing just where it was going, Harry slowly back up back into the room he was in before and began to look for a mirror. When he found one, a broken and dust covered one, he looked at himself in the mirror taking in his reflection. Something he never could bring himself to do at Azkaban; despite the mirror there and his plans to use said mirror when he first woken in his cell.
Seeing himself in the mirror, after he cleaned it up a bit that is, Harry could barely hold back the sneer of disgust from his as he got a good look at himself. His face was so pale and so unhealthy looking that instead of a normal human like tone to his skin his skin actually looked grey. Taking this in Harry had to force himself to look away from his skin and direct his objections else were before he did something he would regret.
Sadly what he looked at next wasn't much better than his skin. In fact if anything it was worse. What he looked at next was his eyes. Which were completely blood shot and an equally disgusting grey as his skin. Which was something that almost made Harry break down in sobs seeing as he had started to pride himself in having eyes just like his moms. Well no longer. Harry doubted his mom's eyes had ever looked so broken and betrayed as his eyes did at the moment.
Knowing that if he continued to look at his eyes that he wouldn't be able to stop himself from crying Harry removed his eyes from the reflection of his eyes and looked elsewhere; this time at his hair. Hair which Harry could say he has never seen look worse than it did at that moment. Before, it had looked silky and fell to just above his shoulders in a barley controlled mess, looking wind swept; or as some said looking like a natural and very sexy bed head. Now it was no longer like that, not by a long shot, in fact now it fell past his shoulder in a greasy blood matted tangled mess. Grimacing and this and clenching his fingers in a fist so he would not run his finger through the oil mop that now made up his hair Harry continued to study himself in the mirror.
This time taking in the changes that his body had made during his stay at Azkaban prison. Which to him, after he got a good look at his body, was actual one of the worst changes that had happened to him in that hellhole. His body still had muscles because of the work out he had done in his cell but besides those muscles he was nothing but skins stretched tightly over bones. The sight of his body like this caused Harry to shiver slightly because it strongly reminded Harry of the zombies Voldemort had used in the war; before he realized they really weren't worth the magic they cost him.
This time unable to stop the groan of disgust from leaving his mouth Harry called on his magic; desperately hoping that it had time to recover from the drainage it has received earlier. Harry smirked to himself when he realized yes his magic had recover and now it was thrumming with the need to be used; who was he to deny it.
That in mind Harry quickly began to cast a series of wandless spells on himself, the first to clean his body of the mud, grim, blood and salt that was on it.
The second one did the same thing for his hair; which now fell to about mid back in a black silky wave.
The third spell was one to place glammer over his eyes and face. Which made his face appear tan and his eye seem to be brown instead if the sickly pale a gruesome gray they had been before.
The forth to give an illusion that he was completely healthy; with no problems what so ever.
While the fifth was used to fix and clean his clothing; he was now wearing a pair of baggy black jeans and a dark brown shirt.
Then he cast the sixth and final one, which was a strong notice me not spell; just in case. This done Harry straightened up and walked out the door ready to explore the place he had landed in.
Harry, once he got outside the cabin he had been in, immediately began to look around him; searching for anything that could help make his plan go smoother and faster than it already was going. Luck once more seemed to be on his side, perhaps making up for all the bad luck he had recently suffered through, for Harry, after about thirty minutes of searching, found an old hotel that the people around him didn't seem to notice at all. Taking a chance, and going with his gut instinct, Harry began to walk over to the hotel. Hoping he was right in thinking this would be the entrance to this places wizarding world; or at least one of the entrances.
Holding his breath Harry slowly entered the building; praying that the good luck that he had held out. Once he was all the way in the building Harry immediately let go of that breath that he had been holding and opened the eyes he didn't even know he had closed in the first place when he noticed all the other people in the building; all of which looked to be wizards.
Grinning to himself, Harry looked around to see if any one seemed to be in charge. By doing this Harry was able to see that there actually was someone in charge of this place; or at least it looked like someone was in charge of this place. Seeing this Harry walked over to where that person was; taking in all the details about said person as he did so. What he saw was what it looked to be a woman, around forty years old with graying brown hair as well as violet eyes. She was not tall but neither was she short she looked to be around what could be considered average height. Though Harry did notice that the stance and confidence she gave of made her look a lot taller and stronger then she actually was. Seeing this Harry smiled to himself, liking the woman in front of him for some reason, before walking over to her; his stance showing no fear or hesitation as he did so.
"Hello I'm a visitor here and I was wondering if you could tell me how to get to the nearest bank around here; I would be extremely grateful if you would." This was said in the politest tone Harry could muster with a charming smile on his face. Which seemed to work if the amused smile the woman was giving Harry meant anything. A smile that got even bigger as she answered Harry. Her tone showing just how amused, and slightly flattered, she was as she did so
"Why you sure are a little sweet talker aren't you? So your new in town are you, well the entrance to the wizarding world is through the back door; don't worry like any other entrance to the wizarding world it only lets those that have magic to enter through it. Once you get there all you have to do is go straight passed all the stores until you see a large white building, it's the largest one in the alley, and you will find yourself at the wizarding bank. Anyway hope that helps you sweet cheeks." Hearing this Harry nodded his head to the lady before quickly walking to the back door; a light blush staining his cheeks as he did so. He wanted to hurry and get out of there so he wouldn't be pushing his luck; which had been strangely good lately.
Harry once he opened the back door of the hotel, which he did quiet quickly seeing as he was eager to get the thing he needed, he found himself in a town that looked nothing like Diagon Ally. (Fortunately because Harry was sure he wouldn't be able to take a place exactly like the one he had taken his sister to so many times before.) For one it was a lot, a lot smaller, then Diagon ally and for two it looked much more modern compared to the other Ally; hell there were ipods and laptops that ran off magic for sell at store about four feet away from him.
Seeing these electronics Harry would freely admit that they made him incredible curious. But at the same time he knew that he didn't have a lot of time to be curious about them. So, after promising himself that he would find out more about them later, Harry began to look out for the bank the lady said was around here. Only to blush a very telling red when he saw that said bank was directly in front of him. Coughing loudly to get rid himself of some of the embarrassment he was feeling Harry walked towards the bank.
Once he was in the bank Harry quickly noticed, that like the area outside said bank, it was nothing like the bank in England; in fact, the only thing the similar between the banks was that this one was also run by goblins. Besides that though everything was different; take for example the computers that one of goblins was currently working on.
Shaking his head and promising once again to think about the differences later Harry took a deep breath and walked over to one of the goblins at the front desks. As soon as he was at the front desk the goblin looked up and in a neutral tone asked Harry.
"May I help you?" Hearing this Harry had to quickly reminded himself that goblins could care less about what the ministry said or about the fact he was an escaped convict. In fact as long as they got their money they didn't care if you were the bloody dark lord. Knowing this Harry, in a polite but neutral tone, answered the goblin question; repeating the reminder in his head over and over as he did so.
"Yes I would like to take money out of my accounts, and to be able to talk to the manager of said accounts…in private if it is allowed." The goblin hearing this looked up at Harry, a startled look on his face, before he told the slightly nervous boy in front of him.
"First, tell me the name of your account and why you would like to speak to the manager in the first place. But let me warn you, you will only meet the manager if you reasons are good enough. If you reasons aren't good enough you can forget all about meeting the manager. "Hearing this, and realizing that there was no way around it, Harry reluctantly said.
"The name of the account I want to go to is the Potter- Black account and I am Harry James Potter-Black. I would like to talk to you manager about me being unjustly put in Azkaban Prison, without a trail might I add….or any crimes. That and my need to just get away from the whole wizarding world as a whole all together; or at least get away from the wizarding world in England or any of the allies to England's wizarding world." Rising his eyebrow after hearing this, the goblin nodded at Harry before pushing a button on his desk; while doing this the goblin told Harry.
"The manager is straight through those double doors over there; the ones by the silver dragon sculpture. I have alerted him to the fact he will be seeing you soon. So you might want to get there quickly and not leave him waiting long for you." As he said this, the goblin pointed to his left showing Harry exactly where the double doors were.
Seeing this, and knowing that the goblin at the front desk was right about not wanting to leave the manager waiting, Harry walked over to the double doors. Once he was at the double doors Harry very cautiously opened them before walking through said doors. Jumping slightly when the door automatically slammed shut behind him and when the lights flickered on by themselves as he walked passed them.
Harry, despite his earlier scare with the doors and the lights, continued walked down the hall until he reached a large metal door; a door which had the world manger on a golden plate on top of it. Seeing this Harry knocked on the door and waited patiently waited for an answer; which he received when an old but wise and stern sounding voice called out from behind the door.
"Come in." As soon as that was said Harry quickly opened the door and walked in; recalling the warning he had gotten earlier about not keeping the manger waiting. That and Harry was really starting to get the feeling that he needed to get out of the bank as soon as possible.
Harry once he walked into the manager's room immediately noticed the goblin behind the large desk; which was in the center of the room. The goblin was unlike those that were in the front of the bank; in fact it was unlike any other goblin Harry had ever seen. He, because Harry was all but positive that the goblin in front of his was male, was about twice as large as any goblin Harry had ever seen and about three or four times more muscular then them as well; which was saying something as the goblins Harry was used to seeing were already pretty muscular themselves.
Pushing back the small, or not so small, amount of fear he got upon seeing the manager Harry walked up to the desk and politely said.
"Excuse me I would like to talk to you about the Potter-Black account. In England I was told that if I wanted to access it any further then I already had I would have to speak to the manager of the bank. I was told this because I had changed it from being accessed with keys to being accessed with passwords…" The manager looked up with a serious look in his eyes, as Harry trialed off from what he had been saying unsure as to what he should say next, before smirking at Harry and saying in a extremely deep scratchy voice.
"Then tell me Mister Potter-Black what is the supposed Passwords needed to open the Potter-Black account." This was said with a nasty smirk as if just daring Harry to get the passwords wrong. Seeing the smirk Harry couldn't help but swallow deeply before telling the manager; in an as steady tone as he could manage at the moment.
"I have two passwords; or rather I have two sayings for my password. The first is, 'there is no light or dark, no pure good or no pure evil; only a million shades of grey and intent' and the second one is 'One should rather die than be betrayed. There is no deceit in death. It delivers precisely what it has promised. Betrayal, though ... betrayal is the willful slaughter of hope.' "Harry then looked at the manager who simply nodded at Harry; showing Harry without using any words that those were the necessary passwords.
The manager now seeing that the person in front of him was indeed the Potter and Black Lord, or at least someone who had permission from said Lord, handed Harry some papers; before telling Harry.
"When you get back to the main part of the bank give these papers to one of the goblins at the front desk; he'll know what to do with them." Harry nodded his head in thanks when he heard this. Before quickly taking the papers from the goblins hands and leaving; closing the door silently behind him as he did so. Once he was out of the office Harry headed back to the front of the bank to do as the manger had told him to.
After Harry handed the goblin at the front desk, the same one who had directed him to the manager in the first place, the papers and the goblin read them Harry found himself quickly being lead to a cart. A cart which Harry found would be taking him to his main vault.
After harry was in the cart he found a bag being shoved in to his hands and after a couple of question Harry found out that the bag he had been given given had a bottomless charm on it. Realizing he would be needed it Harry held on to the bag tightly. As he did this Harry watched as the goblin, who had given had given him the bag in the first place, enter the cart with him. As soon as the goblin was completely seated in the cart said goblin quickly set off making the cart move at a very fast, almost blurring, pace; as they headed toward the main Potter-Black vault.
It wasn't even five minutes after entering the cart that Harry found himself looking up at his main vault's massive onyx doors; which had numerous runes inscribed in it. Seeing all of those runes Harry couldn't help but remember when he had first joined the Potter family with the Black family vaults together.
FLASHBACK
Harry was currently sitting in his small room at the Dudley's residence; a place he would never really call a home. At the moment he was staring out the window of his small room being bored out of his mind. As if so happens Harry's so called family had gone out for lunch that day, after his oh so loving uncle threaten him with a beating if he even left his room of course, and they had left him in there with absolutely nothing to do; but think of the things he would do different if given half a chance.
Sighing and shaking his head to clear it from such thoughts Harry continued to look out the window. Only to blink in shock and disbelieve when he saw a group of owls flying towards his window; after all he had been told by the headmaster that no one was going to contact him this summer. Seeing this Harry quickly opened up his window to let said owls in; feeling immense grateful that someone cared enough about him to go against Dumbldore's orders as he did so.
As soon as his window was open four owls came flying into his room; one of which was Harry notice immediately was his owl Hedwig. The other three owls though Harry had no idea whose they were, where they had even came from or why they had come there in the first place. But seeing that all of them had letters attached to their legs Harry started untying them; starting with the letter on Hedwig's leg.
Once Harry had all the letters untied and all the other owls had left Harry started opening the letters he had received. Beginning with the one he had gotten from Hedwig. Which turns out was from Luna, who Harry had become good friend with when she helped him; when he was in a bit of a tight spot with both Ron and Hermione. Smiling slightly at the memory of what had happened Harry began to read the letter in his hand.
Hello Harry
How are you this fine morning? Are the Fuzzlepuffles still bothering you; like they were at the end of the year? I seriously hope not as I have found that they can be dreadfully mean at times. Anyway Daddy and I are having lots of fun this summer. We are currently searching for all those interesting creatures I told you about; the ones you seemed so interested in. I hope we can find some soon; it would make daddy really happy if we did.
Oh and Harry the Snoozers have told me that you will be getting some very bad news really soon; please try not to take it too hard as not everyone is like they are and some of truly care deeply for you. I am one of them. So Harry, try to think of all the others that care for you and like I wrote just a little earlier don't take it too hard. Because if you do those Fluzzepuffles I warned you about will surly come back in swarms and that a real bad thing. Ok Harry.
Your loving sister in all but blood
Luna Lovegood.
Harry after finished reading this he couldn't help but shake his head and wonder about his sister. At times it really seemed like she could see into the future; even though she assured him that she was no seer. Though at the same time Harry could honestly say, that he wouldn't have her any other way; that she wouldn't be the wonderful Luna he knew and loved if she was any other way.
As he thought this Harry placed down Luna's letter down and picked up the one beside it; it was his Hogwarts letter and it had his Owl results in it. Which he had taken at the Ministry a year earlier than most and had also taken a couple of extra classes he hadn't been in as well. Much to Hermione displease, (As well as Dumbldore's but Harry doesn't know that yet.) seeing as she had found out too late to do the same as well. Eager to see what his grades where Harry quickly tore open the letter.

Congratulations you have earned 35 owls and have scored the highest in Defense against the Dark Arts in over fifty years; which has earned you an extra owl. Please enjoy the remainder of you summer.
Harry after seeing the results couldn't stop himself doing a small jig of happiness and be immensely grateful that he had decided to take those extra classes because they had really brought his owls up. Once Harry stopped to his happy jig, one that got really happy when he decided to picture the look on Hermione's face when she say the results, Harry picking up the next letter in his pile of letters; only to frown in confusion when he saw it was a letter from Gringott's Bank. Wondering why they were writing him now of all times Harry slowly opened the letter and read it.
Mr. Harry James Potter.
We have been trying to get into contact with you for the last couple of years, but something or someone has been blocking you from getting our letters. But we have made sure this letter would reach you so that we can go over some very important detail concerning your account with us.
We also understand that you may not have a way of getting to our banks so with in this letter we have attached a portkey. One that will activate when the password is spoken. The Password to activate the portkey is 'Money talks'
We hope to see you soon
Gringott's bank.
Eyes wide in both surprise and rage, the earlier joy over his owl results long gone, Harry quickly reread the letter in his hand. Hoping that for some reason he had read it wrong and what he thought had happened really hadn't happed; sadly Harry found out that he had read it right the first time. Meaning that someone was keeping both his mail and most likely other important information from him.
When Harry realized this he had nearly activate the portkey on the spot. So that he could find out what had been kept from him. In fact at that moment it was only the reminder of the last letter sitting on his bed stopped him from doing so.
Looking at the letter, and seeing the familiar cursive writing on the envelope, Harry got a sinking feeling in his gut that he knew exactly what the letter was about. Groaning slightly and with great reluctance Harry reached down for the last letter on his bed before slowly began to open it. It was Dumbldore letter and Harry wasn't eager in the least bit to see what he had written.
Harry, my boy
(Reading this Harry's lip curled into a silent snarl, he wasn't his boy; never would be.)
I am just writing you to remind you that no matter what you do you cannot, simply cannot, leave your aunt's house this summer. The death eaters have been more active now than they ever have been in the last couple of years. I am completely positive that you don't want another unfortunate death to occur because of recklessness.
So again for your safety, and the safety of those around you, please stay within the protections that the blood wards around your aunt's house provides for you and don't go rushing off. Or answer any strange mail that you may receive. Though you shouldn't be receiving any mail because I order no one to write to you but just in case do not open any mail that you may receive. We can open them together at a later time; after I check to make sure that there are no curses on them of course. Now I know this might anger you a bit Harry but please remember that this is for your own safety; as well as the safety of millions of other that will be at risk if anything should happen to you my boy.
See you at Hogwarts
Headmaster Dumbldore.
Harry after reading Dumbldore's letter was left trembling with an untold amount of pure fury. The letter in his hand was now balled up in a white knuckled grip. Seeing this Harry threw said against the nearby wall; all the while wishing desperately that he could burn it to ashes with his glare. As soon as he did this Harry grabbing the Gringott's letter off of his bed, and before he could even attempt to second guess himself, growled out in a determined loud clear tone.
"Money talks!" Harry as soon as he said this felt a quick, strong if slightly painful tug on his gut before he felt himself being pulled off to somewhere as the portkey took effect. He then before he could even react, let along get used to the tugging feeling at his gut, felt himself falling to the ground as the portkey came to a stop.
Groaning slightly from the fall, and the landing that said fall had caused, Harry pulled himself up from the ground before starting to look around; He was in Gringott's. Seeing this Harry walked over to the front desk and told the Goblin there.
"Ummm…Excuse me, I was sent a letter this morning telling me that there something's about my vault that the bank would like to talk to me about." As Harry said this he handed the letter he had received earlier to the goblin at the front desk. The goblin after reading the letter turned towards Harry before gesturing to a solid golden door off to the side while saying.
"Sir, please go through that door there. It is the manger's room and he would like to talk to you about certain things dealing with your accounts." Harry after hearing this nodded his head in thanks to the goblin before quickly heading towards the door he had been gestured to.
Once Harry reached the door he slowly bean to reach over and grasp the door knob so that he could open it. Only for the door to open by itself, before Harry could do anything to open it. As the door did this a deep rough voice call out to him from within the room behind said door.
"Come in Mister Potter." This caused Harry to jump slightly in fear. Not liking this reaction Harry gathered up his courage and began to walk through the door; determined not to show any of the fear he had been feeling earlier.
As soon as Harry went through the open door in front of him, he immediately noticed that there was a group of goblins sitting at a large wooden desk with stacks of papers in front of them. Wondering what it was about and just why he was there now of all times Harry nervously said.
"Umm Excuse me but I was told to come back here to discuss something about my account…I got a letter about earlier as well." Harry after saying this was given a quick, short, nod and gestured to take a seat. Once Harry had taken his seat, what seemed to be the head goblin of the group began to speak; in the same voice that had commanded him to enter earlier.
"Mister Potter like the letter said we have been trying to contact you for some time concerning your accounts. It has come to our attention that some, if not most, of the withdraws that have been made from your accounts have been done so without any of your knowledge; let alone consent. It has also been made known to us that both your parent's will and Sirius Black's will have been ignored. It is fortunate we were able to get a hold of you now. For if we hadn't gotten in contact with you at the time we did then your fortune and everything else you would gain from the wills all would have been forfeited; to your magical guardian of all things." Harry after hearing all of this was trembling with suppressed rage and his magic was literally pouring off of him because of this rage. But it was in shockingly calm, though extremely bone chilling tone, that he asked his next questions in.
"Do you have both of their wills? If so I would like to see them, please. Also could you tell me just who has been in my account without my permission and please tell me just who is my magical guardian…I already got a feeling I know just who it is but I want to make sure none the less?" The goblins slightly frightened at the young man in front of them (which should really say something about how scary Harry was being at the moment seeing as Goblins don't scare easily.) quickly began to answer his questions.
"We have both their wills right here with us, we had a feeling that you would like to see them. They are yours to do whatever you want with them; so whenever you want to see them you can. As for who has been in your vaults…well we have keep a list of everyone who had entered your vaults since your parents death, and we have also put what they have taken out on the list as well; we do this for all of our customers just in case something like what appears to of happened you happens to them. As for whom your magical guardian is, which I should tell you that you should already know Albus Dumbldore; Headmaster to your school." This last bit seemed to be the last straw in the very thin string holding Harry's temper back. Because the very moment after he heard Dumbldore's name Harry's temper exploded and so did many of the things nearby him. It was after seeing this things explode that caused Harry to freeze. He knew he had to stop and had to stop soon. So with that in mind Harry pulled back his magic and pushed down his temper; for the time being. Before turning back to the goblins, who had quickly fixed everything his magic had broken, and in a slightly panting voice asked them; his tone almost sounding like a hiss as he did so.
"May I see both of the wills, as well as the list of those have been in my accounts… please?" The goblins seeing that Harry was trying to calm himself down, and that he had pulled all him magic back in this attempt, decided to give him what he asked for immediately, no questions asked; least they set him off again. Once Harry had all three scrolls in his hands, two wills and the list of withdrawals from his accounts, Harry slowly began to open them; starting with the one that belonged to his parents.

We also give you the cottage in America that you seemed to adore so much. Along with that we also want you to have a small portion of our Magical animal farm in England. But if you are responsible for our death you traitor, you get nothing except for the promise that we will be waiting for you when you miserable life ends and we can assure you that it will not be a pleasant visit. Also know the longer you keep us waiting the long we have to think of you punishment; just think on that.

List of Guardian for our son Harry James Potter
Sirius Black
Remus Lupin
Alice Longbottom
Amelia Bones
Augusta Longbottom
Molly Weasley
Albus Dumbldore
Under no circumstances, no circumstances what so ever, is Harry to go to Lily's sister, Petunia. Because of her and her new husbands hatred of anything not normal; including magic. If Harry would be sent to live there, there is little doubt in our minds that he would be abused by them. So he is to never even meet them and their stubborn pig head ways.
P.S If we are dead before we can update this will then it is because of our secret keeper Peter; whom we changed from Sirius at the last minute.
Witness of will:
Albus Dumbldore
Molly Weasley
Harry after reading this had to sit down and breathe deeply through his nose. So that he wouldn't lose his temper once again, and start blowing up things; as well as screaming at the top of his lungs about the injustice of it all.
As he did this Harry noticed that even after ten minutes of steady breathing his hands were still shaking slightly in rage as he picked up the next scroll; containing Sirius's will. Knowing that it probably wasn't the smarted thing to do but wanting to know what the hell was going on all the same Harry began reading the new will in his hand. Hoping that he would be able to keep the little control he had left over his temper as he did so.
The will of Sirius M Black
Being sound of mind and body, shut it Moony, I leave the following to:
To Remus J Lupin- Moony My pack mate, my friend, and my brother in all but blood. Seeing as I am dead and I hope I went out in a flaming glory. I leave you 6,000 galleons, the HQ of the burning birds; do me a favor and burn it to the ground portraits and all. The house in France you used to love visiting so much when we were in school and all of the books in the Black library; which you have to share with Harry hope you don't mind that.
Fred and George Weasley - My fellow pranksters and joy bringers. I leave you 2000 gallons I want you to use it to keep people laughing and the pranks flowing. Do me a favor and get Harry to help you so that he can finally understand the joys of pranking. This is my last wish as Padfoot aka Hogwarts finest sex god.
Molly and Arthur Weasley - I think it's a bit odd how you act around Harry and how things just seemed to have happen around you like they did. But at the same time Harry seems to trust you and seems to think of you as family as well. So I will give you the benefit of doubt and leave you 4000 galloens; use it well and help your family with it.
Ronald Weasley - I think you have some major jealousy problems and need some serious anger management; which you should do immediately. But Harry seems to think of you as a friend, a best friend even, so I will leave you 1000 galloens and a bit of advice that I think you desperately need. My advice is this. I'm sure Harry would give up all the money he has, all the fame he has, to have his parents back for even just for one minute. So you should be grateful your family is all alive and can be with you when you need them their; unlike so many other children out there.
Hermione Ganger- I don't know you as well as I do some of the other but I know you enough that I know that you put way too much faith in authorities or adult figures; and like books way too much. I think you need to take your head out of your books for once and face reality before it comes up and bits you. But Harry doesn't seem to think so and like Ron conceders you a good friend. So I want you to have 1000 Galleons and like Ronald a bit advice as well. Not everything an adult says is correct and not all that you read in books is true remember it is the victors that write the history and they don't always write the truth. They write it as they want it to sound; with themselves on the side of the right.
Albus Dumbledore - I think you are too used to playing chess and getting things the way that you want to. Because to me it now seems like you are now playing with people's lives as if they themselves were chess pieces. But for the old man I used to know and used to respect I leave you 4000 galleons and the hope that you go back to the way you had been before all of this shit happened. Please, do this before you do something you might not get the chance to regret; by that I mean you play with the life of someone and that someone strikes back hard.
Harry Potter- My sweet godson and the boy who was like my own son to me. I'm sorry that I didn't get to spend much time with you; hardly any time in fact. But I do love you like a son and I have since you were first brought home by Lily and James. Because of that I have decided to name you my heir and leave you everything else; including what the rest of my kin A.K.A the Malfoy's and a certain bitch will go unnamed will get. Anyway cub, please take care of Moony; and the same goes for you Moony take care of our cub.
Oh and to put a stop to Dumbles little plan, and trust me Harry he has a whole list of plans concerning you, I have gotten you Harry James Potter now Black emancipated.
Signing off Padfoot, god's gift to man and woman.
Smirking at the emancipated part and laughing at the last part, because it sounded so much like something Sirius would of said, Harry placed down the will; tears he didn't shed for his parents will flowing down his face.
Though through the tears Harry couldn't help but want know what Sirius and his parents meant by what they had said to Dumbldore in their wills. Sure he didn't trust the man completely, nor did he trust his friends totally. But he didn't think they would actually do anything purposely to hurt him like Sirius had been hinting at.
The thought of them not hurting him and that maybe Sirius was wrong about them immediately changed as Harry began to read the last scroll. It showed Harry that Dumbldore had been taking money and books from his vaults since Harry was one; and it only got worse as he began taking more and more of those things as Harry got older.
It also showed that the Weasley 's, the people he had once happily called family, had been taken money from him as well…well at least Ron, Ginny and Molly had been. Not only that but it showed that the girl he had thought of as a best friend, as a sister, Hermione Ganger, had been taking both books and money from him along with some of his family heirlooms; and all of them had been doing so for years. Growling in pure unadulterated rage Harry crumbled up the scroll in his hand. Before throwing it down not wanting to read it any longer; not wanting to know just how badly he had been played a fool.
Harry fought desperately to control his temper and finally when he was sure he wasn't going to explode he turned to the goblins and said to them in the calmest tone he could muster at the moment; which while calm had the undercurrent of a raging storm brewing.(like the calm before a storm.)
"Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have an idea how I want to deal with this; if you'd let me. I know the keys to my account can easily be stole or copied by those around me, seeing as I go to that school and have no idea as to who to trust there…at least not anymore. I also know that the same can easily be said about any copy of any new key you make me for my accounts. So if you don't mind I would like to combine everything I own into one vault under a different name and have it keep safe with two passwords, well two sayings really, instead of the usual keys." The goblins hearing Harry's idea blinked and then smirked; liking Harry's idea. In fact it didn't even take the goblins a minute to respond to Harry request.
"Just tell us the sayings you want as your passwords and we will do the rest Lord Potter. Oh and also what name you want all of it under." Hearing the Lord part from the goblin Harry blinked before shaking his head and telling the goblin.
" I want the first one to be, 'there is no light or dark, no pure good or pure evil; only a million shades of grey and intent' and the second is 'One should rather die than be betrayed. There is no deceit in death. It delivers precisely what it has promised. Betrayal, though ... betrayal is the willful slaughter of hope.' those are the passwords I would like. Also I know they are expecting this but I can't…no will not throw away my family's names so I want this vault to be the Potter-Black vault." This earned Harry a nod from the goblins before they told him.
"Then that is what we shall use."
END FLASH BACK
Harry when he thought of this could stop himself from thinking about what happened a little more than a week after that had happened; even though tears were slowly falling from his eyes as he remembered just what had happened.
FLASHBACK
Harry had been explore Diagon Ally on his own for a little more than a week now, and he had found many fascinating shops that he didn't know about before; shops that he was now frequently visiting. In fact since he had found out about the will and the stuff being stolen from him he had been doing everything in his power to do everything Dumbldore, Ron and Hermione hadn't wanted him to do. By doing this Harry could honestly say that he was really enjoying himself and had never had as much fun in his life as he was at the moment. Because for the first time, in the longest time, Harry felt truly free and he wasn't going to let anyone take that from him; ever again.
As he thought this Harry didn't notice a certain someone snuck up behind him. That is he didn't notice until a pair of slim pale hand covered his eyes and a soft almost breathless voice whispered in his ear.
"Guess who Brother Darling." Harry hearing this and recognizing the voice instantly lost all the tension his body had adopted when his eyes where covered, as he quickly spun around, a large smile on his face as he happily exclaimed.
"Luna!" Before bringing said girl into a large bear hug. He then lightly pulled her into a nearby restaurant; which served her favorite food. Harry did this so that they would be able to talk without being stared at or risk having their conversation eavesdropped on by any reporters; who were still trying to put both Luna and him in a bad light. Seeing this Luna turned to Harry and with a small smile on her lips told him.
"Harry did you know that the Hiffpuffakins are attracted to those who sit inside and have no fun, Hiffpuffakins are really bad to have around. The only way to get rid of them is to go outside and have as much fun as you can for as long as you can." Harry hearing this burst out laughing getting what Luna was getting at without her actually having to say it. Luna seeing this pulled her Harry out the restaurant and started pulling him to the nearest shop; his laughter echoing behind her as she did so.
Another week went by like this, with Luan leading Harry all over the place. Slowly making Harry get over the betrayal that his so called best friend, Ron and Hermione, had put him through. During this time Luna and Harry had become even closer than they already were and it was because of this closeness that Harry was currently leading Luna to the Wizarding bank.
"Come on Luna." Harry called out as he pulled her into the bank, that is until Luna pulled against him and firmly told Harry.
"I'm no taking another step forward until you tell me why you are pulling me here in the first place." Harry hearing this blushed deeply before nervously turning to Luna and in a near whisper told her.
"Well I was thinking that since you think of me as a brother and I really think of you as a sister we could you know make it… well true and blood adopt each other as siblings. That is if you want to." Luna, after Harry said this, went teary eye before jumping on Harry screaming.
"Yes! Yes, I want to be your sister! Yes, I want to call you family! Yes, I want it to be official! Yes, Yes, Yes, I want to do the blood ritual! Thank you! Thank you!" While she was saying this Luna was dragging a now very amused, but extremely happy, Harry towards the front desk. Where an equally amused goblin watched the two.
When the two got to the desk Harry turned to the still amused goblin and in a slightly embarrassed tone asked said goblin.
"Excuse me, but do mind if me and Luna here rent one of you ritual rooms? One of the blood ritual ones? We need it for about one hour, maybe three hours at most." As Harry said this Luna grabbed his arm and nodded her head enthusiastically; which caused the goblin even more amusement as he told them.
"Sure thing Mister Potter and this one will be free of charge. For the mistakes the bank has made with you accounts earlier. If you still want to use the ritual room, please head to the left then go down three doors before turning right and going four doors down and turn right once more. When you do this you will see a big red door at the end of the hall; that is your ritual room." Hearing this Luna let out a happy squeal before continuing to pull Harry by his arm; this time heading towards where the ritual room was.
Once they got to the large red door, which seemed to be made of rubies, leading into the ritual room Harry opened it cautiously. Before bowing towards Luna while holding the door open for her; acting like she was the queen while he was a simple peasant. Making her laugh as she entered the room, with Harry following quickly behind her; an equal large smile on his face as he did so.
As soon as both of them were in the room the ruby red door slammed shut behind them. Seeing this, as well as hearing this, the two decided to look around the room; so that they could prepare for the ritual they were going to do.
What they saw was a large room done primarily in silver with a large drain in the middle of the slightly sloped room. (Which while Harry understood still crept him out quite a bit.) On the silver walls of the room were numerous multi colored runes. Which were there for both the protection of the people in the room, and the room itself.
Hanging on the wall were also many silver and black onyx bowls, with similar made ritual blades laying right besides them; all of which were clean and shining with deadly intent. It was at seeing these blades did Luna tense up, but quickly calmed when Harry placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. Harry feeling Luna loosen up from her tense stated whispered to her.
"Luna, don't worry about any of the knives. We only need one of the smaller ones and we will only use it to just nick out hands; that all Luna." At hearing Harry say this Luna calmed down completely and went to grab one of the silver bowls; leaving Harry to get one of the smaller, if not the smallest, knifes.
Once they had both of these Luna and Harry went into the center of the room; where they both started the ritual. Both of them began to chant in tune with the other, while cutting the others hand; making sure to so it in the very center of each other's palm.
"We call on the magic within our blood and ask that bind us, that it ties our blood to each other. That the magic within the blood make us sibling to each other. Take the magic we give to you and bind us as family forever more; to never let it be undone! We call on the magic within our blood and ask that bind us, that it ties our blood to each other. That the magic within the blood make us sibling to each other. Take the magic we give to you and bind us as family forever more; to never let it be undone! We call on the magic within our blood and ask that bind us, that it ties our blood to each other. That the magic within the blood make us sibling to each other. Take the magic we give to you and bind us as family forever more; to never let it be undone! So we wish so shall it be! As we ask it so must it be! Now and forever more so mote it be!" As the two chanted this they both brought their hands together and began to channel their magic as their blood mixed with each other's blood.
Once the chanting ended a dark red almost black glow circled their hands cause said hand to be pressed together even tighter than they were before; in an almost bone breaking force. Then the magic of the ritual caused both Luna's and Harry's magic to basting outwards; nearly blowing the two holding hands clearly off their feet. Groaning the two got up from their bent position and continued to watch the magic around them as it wrapped its way around them in a breathtaking show of colors before disappearing all together.
Seeing the magic was now gone both Luna and Harry slowly let go of the others hand and sighed in relive when there was no back lash; that meant they had done the ritual right and now they were actually siblings in blood. Realizing this, the two started laughing and hugging each other; happy to, for once, have someone they could happily call family. (Luna's father not include because Luna does love her father and happily calls him family.)
Once they both had calmed down a bit, and no longer felt like dance around and screaming at the top of their lungs because of the joy they felt, both of the started to clean up the ritual room they were in. wanting to get out of the ritual room as fast as they could so they could see if the ritual changed anything about them or in them.
It took them only about ten minutes to get everything back to the way it was before they did the ritual and the moment they were done they both rushed towards the ritual door; holding each other's hands as they left the room.
The two then made their way back toward the front desk to tell the goblin at said desk that they were done so that they could leave. However before they could do this, or to be more precise as they turned to leave, the Goblin at the desk spoke up.
"Excuse me, but I have to ask would you like to do a magical test so you can see if the ritual you did changed your magic in anyway; we offer this test after all rituals and it only cost ten Gallons each." This caused Harry, and with him Luna as well, to pause in thought before he turned back to the goblin a look of consideration on his face.
"Yes I think me and Luna would like to do that test. I mean I haven't done it before so I don't have anything to compare it to but none the less knowing what gifts I, no, we have would be very helpful in in long run. But before we do this test please tell me how does it work?" As he said this Harry squeezed Luna's hand trying to hide the excitement he was feeling at the moment. An excitement that doubled and was echoed by Luna when he heard just what the test did.
"Well, the test requires some of whoever is doing the test blood on our specially made and potion soaked parchment. Once the correct amount of blood hits this parchment it will start to list the titles and abilities of whoever the blood was; along with a summary of just what the ability the user has does. Unfortunately the blood has to be fresh from the source so the person taking the test has to be here." Hearing this and hearing that someone else couldn't do his test, which was a major plus to him, Harry decided to do the test and hoped that his sister would take it along with him; something he really didn't have to do because Luna looked as excited as he did about the test. Seeing this Harry gave a big smile hand twenty of his Gallons before telling the goblin.
"That sounds brilliant. Both Luna and me will so be taking that test!" This got a nod from the goblin as he brought out two pearl white arm length pieces of Parchment and two pure silver needles. Which he then placed in front of both Luna and Harry.
"Okay you two need to use the needle and use it to draw some of your blood. Then you need to let that blood drop on the parchment; three blood drops no more. After the blood hits the paper wait five to ten minutes and then the information you want should appear." Eyes bright Harry picked up both of the needles and, after handing one of them to Luna, did as the goblin said. After doing this Harry looked over to Luna, and upon seeing her doing the same thing, leaned back against the desk waiting for the ten minute period to be up.
Harry wasn't sure exactly how much time had passed as he waited for the parchment to be complete but he did know that he was up and looking at the paper the second the Goblin said it was done; with Luna right there beside him. He decided to start with his and then read Luna's; while Luna started with her and the read his. That in mind Harry began to read his parchment being extremely stunned at what he read as he did so.

Lord of the house of Black
Lord of the house of Gryffindor
Heir to the house of Ravenclaw
Second Heir to the house of Lovegood
Abilities
Mage sight- Which is the ability to see past glamours, invisibility spells, notice-me-not spells and various warding spells. It also gives one the ability to see the power levels of both objects and people; in the form of the auras around a person, place, or thing. This ability needs to be activated in a low magical area when fist used or the user will go blind. It also needs to be controlled quickly or it can permanently burn out the eyes of the user. Because of this, this ability is rarely activated. Because many people belief that the risk of this ability far out weight the positives of this ability.
Magical animagus potential- Which means that the user has the ability to transform in to a magical creature instead of a mundane creature. This ability is much riskier than a normal animagus form because of the fact that the user of this ability is at a much high risk of losing themself to their animagaus instincts then a normal animagus would be
Elemental Magic- which is the ability to manipulate fire earth water and wind. Though one can only master two elements at most and have only minor control, very minor control over the others. It should also be noted that while not impossible it is incredible difficult to master two opposing elements. It is suggest to attempt to master two elements that work well together like water and earth or wind and fire. Instead of element that naturally fight against each other.
Sea Magic – Which is the magic's of the sea. Anyone with this ability will be able to call sea storms or calm the sea at their will. This is a gift that is actually impossible to master because the sea itself is impossible to master. Most, if not all the people who have this gift, have died by the seas hand in the end when they push their powers to far. Remember one cannot control the sea only simply request what you want and hope that the sea for fills that request.
Parseltongue- Which is the ability to speak to and understand snakes and all serpent like creatures. Though this ability does have limits; especially when considering the intelligence of the serpent or snake being spoken to. Lately because of the recent dark lords we have had this ability is considered to be a dark gift and is considered the mark of a dark wizard or witch. It is not.
Parselmagic- is the ability to you parseltounge to use magic. The ability is helpful because only another parseltounge can remove the spell cast.
Healing -which is, as the name suggests it is, the ability to heal others with the user's inner energy or magic. The stronger the compassion and magical strength a user of this ability has the stronger the ability. Also unlike healing spells the healing ability only needs intent and to have the energy of the user directed at the injury they want healed.
Empathy- which is the ability to feel and in extreme cases manipulate other's feelings; though if the mind is not shielded the person with this ability can find themselves controlled by another's emotions instead of the other way around.
Minor beast-speak- Which is the ability to speak to different animals. The more connection one has with a certain animal the better he or she will be able to speak to and understand them.
wand-less magic potential- which is the ability to use magic without the uses of a wand or any other type of focus.
Silent magic potential- the ability to use magic without any words.
Eyes still wide and jaw slowly but surely making it way to the floor Harry absent mindedly handed the parchment to Luna and took the one she was handing him. As he read it Harry felt his jaw finally hit the ground.

Lady of the house of Ravenclaw
First heir to the Lovegood house
Heir to the house of Potter
Heir to the house of Black

Clairvoyance- which is the ability to gain information about an object person, location or physical event through means of an extra sense; often sight or touch.
Telekinesis – Which is a magical ability that enables the user to move objects with their mind. Such as something as easy as toothpick to something as heavy and complex as a bus. Some of the more powerful Telekinesis users can form shields of psychic energy to protect themselves and others.
Pschometry- Which is the ability to see the past history of an object while touching it. This ability is often considered a curse and unwanted by those that have it seeing as it cannot be turned off and the ability activates on everything its user touches; including humans
Parseltongue- Which is the ability to speak to and understand snakes and all serpent like creatures. Though this ability does have limits; especially when considering the intelligence of the serpent or snake being spoken to. Lately because of the recent dark lords we have had this ability is considered to be a dark gift and is considered the mark of a dark wizard or witch. It is not.
Parselmagic- is the ability to you parseltounge to use magic. The ability is helpful because only another parseltounge can remove the spell cast.
Multiple animagus potential- Which means that the user has the ability to transform in to multiple mundane creature instead of a single mundane creature. This ability is much riskier than a normal animagus form because of the fact that the user of this ability is at a much high risk of losing themself to the multiple animagaus instincts they will feel instead of a single normal animagus instincts a normal animaugus would suffer through.
Elemental Magic- which is the ability to manipulate fire earth water and wind. Though one can only master two elements at most and have only minor control, very minor control over the others. It should also be noted that while not impossible it is incredibly difficult to master two opposing elements. It is suggest to attempt to master two elements that work well together like water and earth or wind and fire. Instead of element that naturally fight against each other.
Chlorokinesis- which is the ability to generate manipulate and control plant life. This ability can never fully be controlled because plants have a mind of their own and do not like being controlled. Many a user has found this out when the plants they were attempting to control killed them instead of doing what they wished. If you want to be successful in this gift remember to only suggest not command and always be polite to mother earth; lest you suffer her wrath.
Minor beast-speak- is the ability to speak to different animals. The more connection one has with a certain animal the better he or she will be able to speak to them.
Wand-less magic potential- the ability to magic without the use of a wand or any other type of focus,
Silent magic potential- the ability to use magic without any words.
Harry after reading this felt like he really needed to sit down, a feeling Luna most of been feeling as well because she put a comforting hand on his shoulder and whispered into his ear.
"Well just think of it this way Brother. We can work together to gain control over these gift. Meaning we get to spend even more time together then we were before and no one can say we are wasting time or that we can't do it." Hearing this Harry eyes brightened once more; after all his sister was right about that.
END FLASHBACK
Brushing away the tears this memory had caused him Harry slowly reached up and opened the onyx door guarding his vault (let's say money is magical transported through the banks and his money is in any wizarding bank he visited because of goblin magic.) before stepping through the door.
Once Harry entered the door he was nearly blinded from the shine the piles upon piles of gold were giving off. Blinking to clear his eyes Harry walked towards the large heaps of gold and quickly started place as much as he could in his hands before placing it in the bag he was given. After doing this for nearly ten minutes Harry got up and went over to the other side of his vault; which held materials instead of gold.
As he reached that side of his vault Harry quickly grabbed six pitch black daggers, nine vials of poison, a large blood red sword, a choker with a shrunken trunk attached to it, and then he add charmed bracelet meant to hold shrunken weapons to his pile of objects; all of which Harry had specifically placed in his vault so that he could remove them at a later date.
Once Harry had all of these things he placed the Bracelet on, shrunk the weapons and vials then placed them on the bracelet. Before slipping on the choker around his neck and putting his feather light bag of money on his right side.
Harry seeing he had everything that he wanted at the moment, walked out of his vault and nodded his thanks to goblin waiting for him. Before climbing into the cart the goblin was in ready to leave. Which the goblin seemed to be ready to do as well, if the speed they got back to the top of the bank meant anything.
Harry, as soon as he got back to the top of the bank, once again nodded his head in thanks before quickly heading out of the banks. This time heading towards the shops he knew needed to go to. After all he needed to get some potions to deal with the health problems he knew he had. As well as some books on his Sea Serpent form; seeing Harry was sure he felt a different type of magic while he was in that form. Not to mention he needed to get more books on his magic abilities. Seeing as Luna and him had only really gotten the basics down on only the first couple abilities they had; and that was it.
Soon Harry found himself entering a large potion store, seeing this Harry couldn't help but give a very, very small smile. This smile didn't fade in the slightest as he walked through the shelves picking up the potions he needed as he walked by them; some healing and some he knew he would need if he wanted to escape.
After spending an hour and thirty minutes in the shop Harry had all the potions he needed and some he didn't necessarily need but wanted none the less. All together the potions he had included three strong nutrients potions, two bone strengthener potions, four fattening potions, one very strong potion to help with muscles deterioration he had suffered in Azkaban, three potions to help with his skin tone and skin health all together, six to help with any injuries his magic might of missed, three to help him magic recover from the stain it clearly had to be under, two to help strengthen his mental plan, four to help with his eyes, and finally three to help with his hair and get it back in to a more health shape. Those were the potions he had needed. The potions he had wanted included. Two permanent cosmetic potions, a hair lengthening potion, four different language potions, and four cleansing potions; that would clean Harry thoroughly inside and out. Harry then took all forty-two potions up to the cashier and paid for them; ignoring the curios look the cashier was giving him as he did so.
Once Harry had the potions all specially wrapped and stored away, as well as paid for, Harry continued to walk down the alley looking for a Book store. One that might have something on magical serpents; as well as some books on magical traveling spots and abilities.
Harry had been walking and searching for nearly an hour when to his happiness he finally found a large book store; which looked like it might have the books he was looking for and then some. Sighing in relive Harry walked into the book store and started looking around for the books he wanted.
Harry as he was browsing through the books found a couple of books, that he wasn't really looking for, that caught his interest so he picked up. They were: Magical languages and how to learn them, Old ritual the ministry wishes we had forgotten, So then you want to disappear, a book on magical disguises and releasing you full potential. After finding these books Harry then started to find the books he had came in the book store for in the first place. They were: The World and All it Magical Wonders., Places to go when you want to get out, Powers and what to expect of them, Elements are they among us? Are you one of them?, Snakes, their gifts and powers., Magical Animals of the Sea, Potions of the world, and The Sea and it Power. Harry once he had all of these books and had paid for them, not to mention had them all shrunken and made feather light, he headed out of the store. Before going back toward the hotel (the one that had led to the magical word and was the exit for it as well.) ready to leave.
But before he could do this Harry found himself clutching his heard in agony as a loud mental cry for help continuously echoed around in it. Hearing this, and wondering what could be crying out in such anguish, Harry quickly turned around to see where it was coming from. By doing this Harry found himself right in front of a magical pet shop.
Groaning at this Harry walked into the pet shop, knowing that because of the mental cry he received he had to check it out what was going on or it would bug him until he did so. That in mind Harry began walking around the pet shop looking in all the cages trying to find out just where the mental cry came from in the first place. That is when Harry found just what had been doing the mental crying. When he did he had to pause and had to take deep breaths to keep himself calm or at least to keep himself from causing a scene.
There sitting in a small dirty cramped cage was a starved, dirty, but strangely beautiful black bird with blood red highlights throughout its wings. Growling in anger at the depressed look in the caged animals eyes Harry marched up to the front desk and slammed his hand on the front desk; catching the lady behind it attention and hissed out in a deadly tone that left the woman sickly pale. (Hey I said he tried to calm down and not make a scene I never said he succeed now did I.)
"Tell me why the hell you have such a lovely creature bond up and treated the way you do! And I swear to Merlin if I don't like the answer you will know it!" The woman hearing this and seeing the deadly gleam in Harry's eyes stuttered out her answer; knowing without a doubt just what animal the enraged man in front of her was talking about.
"T-t-that bird i-is a sh-sh-shadow phoenix an-and it it is like th-that be-because shadow p- phoenixes are d-d-dark cre-creatures…" Here Harry cut her off before she could say anything else and all but snarled out.
"Take the bird out! I don't care if it is some bloody dark creature! I take it off you damn hand if it's that much of a hassle for you! No one, NO ONE you hear me, deserves to be locked up like you have him!" The woman hearing this quickly nodded her head and all but jumped out of her sear to do as Harry said. Once she had done this and had the dark Phoenix out of the cage the woman stood in front of Harry, still pale faced with fear, and handed Harry the bird before. She then, in a faint and clearly terrified tone, told him.
"Here take the bird just please just get out and don't hurt me." Harry hearing this sneered at the woman before going to the counter and dumping nearly two hundred Galleons on it. (He wasn't Voldemort he wouldn't take advantage of someone's terror…at least not that much.) He then went around the store and grabbed the things he thought the bird would need including; a large stand for the bird, which he promptly shrunk, a huge amount of food, a book on how to care for it, and several different healing potions before heading out the door; leaving the woman gapping unattractively at the large pile of money on her desk.
Harry as he walked out of the hotel and rubbed his face wearily. While doing so Harry couldn't help but wondered to himself why he had bought the bird in the first place. He knew that he would have trouble dealing with an injured bird while on the run; so then why had he bought it?
Shaking his head to rid himself of such thoughts Harry keep on walking making many twist and turns until he found himself back at the abandon, nearly destroyed, cabin he had first started from. Sighing Harry walked over to a broken down desk that was lying in the cabin and quickly started to place down his things. Starting with the bird's things, then going to the potions and finally the books; leaving the money on him just in case.
Once Harry had everything set down he went to the potions he knew both he and the shadow phoenix would need. Than in mind Harry transformed a nearby rock in to a small bowl for the bird and poured one of his healing potion in to it; while he grabbed himself a much needed nutrients potion. As he was doing this Harry was speaking to the phoenix in a soft, extremely gentle, tone.
"You know I can't keep calling you bird, so how about I name you." Hear Harry paused and when he received a nod from the phoenix he continued. " Hmmm how about the name shadow…No ok how about the name Kaden…not that either then…Oh I got it how about Chasseur, from what an old friend told me it means fighter in French, and I think that from what you have shown you are one hell of a fighter." This name got a positive nod cause Harry to stop thinking names for his new friend and place the healing potion in front of it; while he drank his own.
Once both Chasseur and Harry had finished drink and using all of the healing potions that they could at the moment they both settled down for a rest as the potions started to take effect. While they were resting Harry pulled out a book to read; the one called Snakes, Their Gifts and Powers. And began to read it aloud about Sea serpents softly to himself.
"Sea serpents are one of the deadliest creature in existents because of the fact that they are the water form of Dragon, as well as one of the most deadliest snakes in the world, ranking up with a basilisk; largely because of it venom. This deadly serpent is known as the fast creature in water and is in the top percentage when it comes to moving on land. Though it should be known this creature rarely attack unless provoked or angered. But when it is provoked it will not ever stop attack unless the person or thing that provoked it is dead or it, itself is dead. The Sea Serpent is known most for it powers and defenses." Here Harry paused and took a deep breath before continuing on to the next paragraph. Which is mainly what he wanted to know; seeing as he already knew what he had read so far.
"The Sea serpents like dragons have highly spell resident hides. The Sea Serpent also has other defense but these are because of its powers. Powers which include partial control over the sea or large bodies of water. They are also able to go invisible or camouflaged so well that it cannot be seen; which one it is had not been made known to us yet. This Creature also has the ability to use wild magic to an extent and has a deadly acid like venom; which is said to be strong enough to go through even diamonds. All and all this is a creature that shouldn't be messed with which is why the Ministry has labeled this creature an either run on site or kill if possible; though trying to kill this magnificent creature is considered a suicide mission if done alone and not suggested to try. ." Harry after reading this couldn't keep the almost smug smile off his lips; at least in his Sea Serpent form people would think twice about attacking him especially considering how big it was.
That thought in mind Harry drifted off in to the first peaceful sleep he had, had in more than a year; a snoozing Chasseur resting beside him as he did so.
