[Luna�s mom�s thoughts]

�~Parseltongue~�

As Harry, Luna and Griphook sat in the cart racing deeper and deeper into the depths Harry could not believe how much was happening so fast. Just yesterday, he was single. Now he was Lord Potter Gryffindor Ravenclaw Hufflepuff. Presently, they came to a stop at vault 32.

�Here we are. The Potter Family vault,� said Griphook.

�Uh � I was never given a key,� said Harry.

�Your ring is your key,� replied Griphook. �Simply press into the matching indentation on the door and it will open.�

Harry did so and when the door opened, he couldn�t believe his eyes! The room was filled with chest after chest full of galleons. One entire wall was filled with shelves of books.

�Why would someone put books in their bank vault?� asked Harry.

�Normally only rare, out of print books are kept in a vault,� replied Griphook. �It is usually because they are too valuable to risk theft. So they are left here when not being read.�

Harry and Luna looked through the titles. There were books on transfiguration, defense, charms, astronomy, care of magical creatures, and ancient runes. They both agreed to wait until they had seen what was in the other vaults before taking anything.

It was only a short ride later to vault 4.

�The Gryffindor Family Vault,� announced Griphook.

This vault was easily as big as the great hall at Hogwarts. It had even more gold in it, but also there was a collection of weapons. It seemed that the Lords Gryffindor had been collecting weapons for a thousand years. Each generation would enchant and add a weapon to the collection, which was mostly swords. Some of the more recent entries were interesting. Harry�s grandfather had added a bazooka. His father had added a machine gun and his father had added a gatling gun. There was also a collection of rare books on various subjects.

Vault 3 was the Hufflepuff Family vault. In addition to the massive amount of gold, there where shelves full of jars and rare seeds for magical plants. There was also an equal amount of space devoted to vials of potions of all types, many of which, Harry had never heard of.

Vault 2 was the Ravenclaw Family vault. Like all of the others it had a massive amount of gold. Not surprisingly, there was a huge library in the vault. It had entire sections devoted to charms, occlumency, legilimency, defense, and the dark arts. Each section was bigger than the whole of the Hogwarts library. But the biggest surprise was the weapons, enough to equip an army. Apparently, Rodrick Ravenclaw had been expecting a war in the sixteenth century and had enchanted enough pikes and arquebuses to arm a large force.

Harry and Luna took a book on each subject from the Ravenclaw vault and headed back up to Grindbar�s office to see a final tally of their assets,

�Lord and Lady Potter, please understand that many of the investments that were made by the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff families were in businesses that no longer exist,� said Grindbar. �They merged with other businesses which, in turn, merged with other businesses until the present day, when we rent out the proxies for the interest you own in various things and deposit the rent money in your accounts.

After perusing the papers, Harry asked, �Who is the current holder of my proxies on the Daily Prophet shares?�

�They are currently being rented by Lord Malfoy, Lord Nott and Marvolo Publishing Corp.,� said Grindbar.

�As soon those leases end, I want back voting control of that stock, said Harry. �Also, get back control of all of the Knockturn Alley businesses for me.�

�The leases end on December 31st. I will make certain that no new leases will be issued on those proxies,� said Grindbar.

�I think I�d like to take a look at some of our properties now,� said Harry. �How do I find them?�

�First star to the right and straight on �til morning?� mused Luna.

[Luna behave! You�re not helping.]

�Each of your family rings is a portkey and will take you and anyone you are holding to the properties of that branch of the family,� explained Grindbar. �Simply concentrate on the place you want to go and it will take you there.�

�Thank you for all of your help, Grindbar,� said Harry as he gathered up the papers.

�It was my pleasure, Lord Potter,� replied Grindbar.

�You still need to get your possessions from your Aunt�s house,� observed Luna.

�Right. We�ll Shadow walk there,� said Harry as the two of them stepped into the shadow behind the door and vanished.

Harry had not yet learned to apparate. But Shadow walking was a trick he learned from Slytherin�s library in the Chamber of Secrets where he and his friends had been training for three years. It allowed them to step into any shadow and step out of another one anywhere else.

When they stepped out of a shadow in Harry�s room at 4 Privet Drive, there was a purple haired woman sitting on the bed waiting for them.

�Hello Harry,� said Tonks. �And you must be Looney ��

�Stupefy!� shouted Harry and Luna as they simultaneously sent stunners at Tonks.

Tonks blocked their stunners with a hastily cast shield charm, then turned the tables with a silencio charm cast at Luna.

Luna�s sword appeared in her hand and absorbed the power of Tonks� spell as Luna said: �Friend of yours?�

�I never saw her before in my life!� yelled Harry as he grabbed both his trunk and
Luna and portkeyed to the Potter home in Godric�s Hollow.

When they appeared at the Potter home, it was nothing more than a pile of debris where a house had been. As they walked around the yard in silence, Harry thought: (This is where it all started. All my life I have wondered about the house my parents lived in and now that I find it, it�s a heap of rubble. Wait a minute. What�s that?)

Luna�s thoughts were more like this:

(Ooo, look at the pretty castle!)

{Poor Harry, this must really be painful for him}

(Castle!)

[Luna, will you be quiet! Some of us are trying to maintain a somber expression!]

(What are you going to do about it? Spank me?)

{Wait a minute. There is a castle, there, through the trees!}

(Told ya�)

�Whose castle is that?� ask Luna.

�Let�s find out,� replied Harry as he took Luna by the hand and led her through the trees and towards the castle.

As they approached the fortress, it became obvious to Harry that at one time, the Potter home had been the servants� quarters for the manor. The castle itself appeared to be a medieval keep that had been updated many times over the centuries. The drawbridge was down and there was a wooden wall where the portcullis should be with a set of double doors in the middle of it.

Their knock on the door was answered by a house elf, who peered up at them with large expectant eyes.

�Excuse me, we would like to introduce our selves to the master of the house,� said Harry.

�I believe you have already met him,� said the house elf.

�Who is he?� asked Harry.

�He is you,� replied the house elf. �Please come in master, Lord Gryffindor. Your guest is awaiting you in the drawing room.�

�Guest?� asked Luna. �Oh yes, the previous owner of the castle.�

�You know who the previous owner was?� asked Harry as they were led down a hall filled with magical paintings of priceless art objects.

�Of course, we�re in Gryffindor Castle and we know who was wearing Lord Gryffindor�s ring before you,� replied Luna.

Luna heard the sword say in her head.

�Ah, Harry, please come in. We have much to discuss,� said Dumbledore from his armchair in the drawing room. �And Miss Lovegood, I might have known you were behind this.�
