The letter that changed everything

When Harry came back to Hogwarts, he hid under his invisibility cloak and waited in front the great hall till he spied his own messy hair amongst the students leaving for their first class after lunch. Harry cautiously made his way through the crowed until be stand right next to Fred.
“Hey Fred, it´s me, meet me in the bathroom of moaning Myrtle so you can get out of here.”
Fred nodded and with Ron and Hermione following went to meet Harry. When he walked in Harry warded the door and threw up a silencing charm before pulling of his cloak and looking at his friends.
“So, Harry are you going to tell me why it was so important, that I needed to leave George alone at the shop and come here to play you?”
Harry looked at Ron who shook his head slightly indicating that it wasn´t the right time.
“Sorry Fred, I can´t just yet, but thank you so much for helping me out today. I plan to look for my own place while I am at Christmas vacation. I hope you and George come visit me. At that time, I will be able to tell you everything.”
“Alright Harry I guess that´s acceptable but I´m holding you to it. Now can I have the cloak I really need to be going. “
Harry handed it to him, and he slipped out of the door. As soon as they were alone Ron and Hermione started to bombard him with questions. Harry chuckled at them.
“Now is not the time we will talk after dinner.” They looked disappointed so Harry added quickly:
I promise you guys, but we really need to go class is starting in five minutes.”
Sighing they gave up and made their way to Herbology.

When they got up after dinner, they made their way to the entrance but before they reached the door a harsh voice called out their names.
“Potter! Granger! Weasley!” they turned around and looked up in the angry face of their DADA professor. Ron and Hermione both paled a little but Harry wasn´t worried.
“Follow me” at that they watched Snape spin around and stalking out of the hall. They looked at each other before starting to follow him down to the dungeons.
Snape led them into his office and threw another door that none of them ever noticed before. Harry could see the tension building in his best friend´s shoulders. Ron distrusted the man greatly since the first day of School in first year. Harry was just starting to wonder where Snape was taking them when they came to a stop outside of another door. He turned around and glared at them.
“If I hear you mention this to anyone you will spend the rest at your time here in School in detention, understood?” Harry, Ron and Hermione nodded. Snape opened the door and made his way into the room?
“Where are we professor?” Hermione asked.
“You currently find yourself in my private quarters. I want to talk to the three of you. Please take a seat”. To say they were shocked was an understatement. Harry looked around. Snape´s quarters looked nothing like he would have imagined. Every piece of furniture was in a worm honey shade. Although the walls were made of stone it wasn´t dark down here. The couch and the armchairs by the fire were crème coloured but the pillows laying on them were a light pastel green and blue. Harry thought it was all very tasteful and being here did not´ feel odd at all. He felt wonderfully comfortable.
“Potter, are you listening?” Harry flinched.
“Sorry professor, could you please repeat what you were saying?” Snape rolled his eyes at him.
“I was asking you how you are coping with everything you learned today. It is a lot to take in.”
“I think it´s going to be fine. Like you said it´s just a lot and I think I´m going to need time to get used to all of this.”
“Harry, what are you talking about and why are you talking to him?” Ron asked. He looked at Harry as though he had lost his mind.
“Because I trust him Ron, I know this sounds crazy given our history, but I do. Listen…” and Harry went on telling his friends about the conversation Snape overheard his first night back and the one they had in Snape´s office. When he came to the point that Snape accompanied him to Gringotts Hermione looked at Snape deep in thought. She always knew that Snape was watching out for Harry. It wasn´t always obvious but she too knew that he could be trusted. When she raised her voice to speak it came out only as a little more than a whisper.
“Thank you, professor for going with him. I was so worried that something would happen to him. If I would have known you were with him I wouldn´t have been so scared. Thanks for looking after him.”
Snape looked at her incredulously, was she mocking him? No! He could see it in her eyes. She was indeed thankful.
“It wasn´t a noble thing Miss Granger. When something happens to Potter, I am screwed. I am a selfish man and did what was in MY best interest. As loathe at I am to admit it, he is the one who must end this war.”
Snape looked at Harry and saw his jaw getting tense a bit.
“Harry when are you going to tell us what happened today?” Ron asked getting impatient. But Harry just starred at his friends deep in thought again. `Why is this bothering you? You idiot you know Snape doesn´t care for you so why are you hurt by something you already know?´
“HARRY!!” Hermione shouted tearing him away from his thoughts.
“What? What´s wrong?” he asked confused.
“You know it´s annoying trying to have a conversation with someone who doesn´t listen to a word you say” she said pouting.
“Sorry, I´m sorry I´m listening.” He looked at her expectantly.
“Potter I think your friend´s are the ones who want to listen to you.”
“I don´t even know where to start.” He said sighing. It was just so much.
“Maybe it would be easier looking at your memories in a pensive?” Harry thought about that.
“I think that is a great Idea. At least that way I don´t have to try to explain.” He smiled a small smile.
Snape stood up heading into the room next door only to come back a few seconds later carrying his pensive to his kitchen desk. Ron and Hermione stood and went over there.
“Are you coming?” Ron asked.
“Do I have to?” he asked back.
“Yes, Potter these are your memoires. We will not look at them with you not present” Snape snarled.
Harry shook his head but stood and took his place next to Snape. Harry took his wand and extracted his thoughts from his mind letting them drop in the pensive and stepping aside.
“Go on then you two, you go first” he said looking at his best friends. Hermione bend over and fell right into it, the others followed shortly after.
He watched himself enter the bank and being led to the private room by Aros. As they listened to the two wills and the talk after, Harry who had to heard all of it already that day settled to watch Snape from the pensive instead. Studying his body language and every little change on his face as the conversation went on. He didn´t notice that Snape was watching him just as intensely. Harry was torn from his thoughts when the goblin in front of him stood up and together they started their journey to Harry´s vault. Ron, Hermione, Harry and Snape following them.
Flashback:
They followed Aros to the cards that would bring them down to the vaults.
“Which vault do you want to see first?” the small creature asked.
“I don´t know the one with the rear books and family heirlooms I think” he answered. He really didn´t care too much about the books and heirlooms. He only cared for the letter from his parents that was mentioned in the will.
They sat down in the cart and Harry took hold on the site of it knowing how rough the drive could be. The cart was small, and his leg was pressed against Snape´s. Harry sucked his breath in his leg tingled slightly at the touch. He avoided his eyes and the cart started moving taking up speed and flying down the rails. Harry was glad when they came to a stop. He had a little flush on his cheeks and hurried to get out without touching his professor. On the way down they were pressed against each other in every time the card changed direction. He handed Aros the key and the goblin opened the vault. Harry walked in and looked around. The vault was small and had not many things in it. He looked around in search for the letter. It wasn´t too hard to find as there was a table in the middle of the room. On it lay a letter and four keys. He looked over to Snape who came to read the letter as well.
To our beloved son Harry,
If you read this letter know that we are so sorry we are no longer with you and that we love you so much and miss you terribly. This letter holds sensitive information so only share the content when you are absolutely sure you can trust the person you are sharing it with. We were actively in the war, (well your father was as I was pregnant with you my sweet boy) when Dumbledore told us about a prophesy spoken in his presence, although it could have been speaking of a few different people, he was convinced that it would be us Voldemort would be coming after. We went into hiding immediately to protect you but there was something, that was just not sitting right with us. We thought that it wasn´t THAT likely since Lilly was muggleborn and we all know what Voldemort thinks of muggleborns. But Albus was pushing hard for us to go into hiding so we gave in. In retrospect that we did go into hiding is probably why Voldemort is now looking for us. We can´t shake the feeling that was Albus intention.
One day we were home, and Lilly cut herself whilst cooking when I had the silly thought that it would be amusing to take an inheritance test. I thought it interesting to see how far back I could track Lilly´s muggle family. So, I got out a parchment spoke the spell and Lilly let 3 drops of her blood fall on it. When her family tree appeared, we were more than confused. There on the paper was not Lilly´s name but the name Emma Allegra Williams. We never heard of that name and you can imagine how shocked we were. We thought it must be a mistake, but It was her blood we used so it could not be wrong. We studied the family tree and were surprised to find that Lilly (Emma decided she wanted to keep the name Lilly for more than one reason) was related to Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin. We were baffled as there is only one wizard alive that could claim to be related to two founders. In case of Ravenclaw everybody thought there would never again be an heir as all her family was dead. We all know that Dumbledore is related to Gryffindor but is not his direct heir. The same is true about Tom Riddle. He is related to Slytherin but is not from Salazar Slytherin´s direct bloodline. Both are the offspring from Godric´s and Salazar´s siblings so that was HUGE. We just couldn´t believe it.
The next day we went to Gringotts to let the Goblins do the test again. When it was confirmed that Lilly was indeed Emma Allegra Williams, she could claim the Vaults that now legally belonged to her. The Goblin´s were shocked. You see Emma was supposed to be dead. When she was little her family was attacked and everyone was killed. Emma´s body too was found along with her parents and grandma. Lilly had no memories of any of it which was weird because the goblin told us she would have been almost 4 by the time of the attack and although it would be normal not to remember everything it was more than unusual to remember nothing at this age. Especially something so traumatic. So, on a wimp we checked if Lilly had any modified memories and well, we found a pretty important one. The Goblin was luckily able to undo the spell and what we found was shocking. It was Albus who killed Emma´s family and abducted her. He brought her into the muggle world and left her in front of an police station. He obliviated her and took ALL her memories away. She couldn´t even remember her own name.
To this day we have no idea why Dumbledore would do something like that. We just couldn´t figure it out. What was his gain in all this? We already were under the fidelius charm and thought about moving so he can´t get to us but after long nights of discussion we decided that we don´t want Albus to get suspicious so we decided to stay put. We want to observe him in hope of finding out more. We don´t want him to know that we know that Emma is Lilly. We don´t even know that he knows. After getting her memories back Lilly told me when she was found in front of the police station, she taken into foster care but soon was adopted by your grandparents. She couldn´t remember ever seeing Dumbledore again till she got to School. He should not know who took her in or how she looks now which will hopefully give us an advantage. It would not sit well with him if we were to cut contact. If he doesn´t know about Lilly, we won´t risk him finding out since that would undoubtedly put us and especially you in more danger.
We hope you never have to read this letter as we pray every day that we will live a long life and see you grow up. We also know that it is possible that might not be the case, so we wrote you this letter. You already know that Lilly is the heir to Ravenclaw and Slytherin, but you must also know that James is the heir to Godric Gryffindor and Helga Hufflepuff which makes you the direct air of the founders of Hogwarts. In other words, Hogwarts belongs to you. From the day you turn 17 it will serve you, but you must claim it. We don´t know how but the Goblins do since they are the ones who build the castle for the founders. They can only reveal it to the heir of the four, so we don´t know.
Harry, don´t trust Dumbledore. He has an agenda we can´t figure out. He is a VERY powerful wizard and is not to be underestimated especially since we don´t know what he is planning. We know that you can trust Remus, Sirius and Peter with your life, but you will figure out for yourself who you can rely on. We also wrote up our will insuring, should something happen to us, that you will be taken good care of.
We love you so much our little miracle. Never forget that. We know you will make us proud.
Yours truly
Mom and Dad
Harry looked up from the letter. His head was spinning, his entire body shook violently, and he started hyperventilating. He dropped the letter on the table and turned around to Snape who´s eyes were wide in astonishment. Harry sat down on the floor and put his head between his knees. He thought he might pass out when he didn´t come down soon. Snape blinked and looked at him.
“Potter?” Harry didn´t answer.
“Potter, calm yourself!” – nothing
“POTTER!!!” Harry flinched at the loud noise but just couldn´t move.
Snape sighed recognizing a panic attack when he sees one and kneeled next to him. He hesitated but then put his arm around his waist and pulled him against his chest remembering that touch always helped him when he panicked. With his other Hand he soothingly rubbed small circles on his back.
“Breathe Potter breathe, it´s okay. Everything will be alright. Just relax…” he calmly said. All the while Aros looked at them. They sat like that for a few minutes but slowly Harry started to calm, and his breathing started to slow. He still trembled but was able to get back to his feet. Ashamed, he looked down and mumbled an apology. Snape who was up again too just looked at him. Harry took the keys from the table and walked toward the door. He just wanted to get out. He desperately needed time to think and come to term with what he just learned. Snape followed him and after telling the goblin he would come back another day to look at the rest of the vaults stormed out of the bank.
End of flashback
The four stepped out of the pensive. Both of Harry´s friends looked at him incredulously. They just stood there trying to comprehend what they had learned. Harry was starting to get nervous at the deafening silence when Hermione sighed and shook her head in disbelieve.
“Wow…” was all she could manage to say.
“I need something to eat” Ron exclaimed. Harry and Hermione looked at each other and broke out in laughter.
