A/N: I am unrepentant...well maybe feeling a little bit guilty. So I've had this sitting around for about a year and finally decided to post it. I'll most likely be updating this and my other HP fanfic in tandem with each other until I get inspiration for my other fics. If I stop...blame college.

Disclaimer: I've already typed one of these up today but...it never seems to be enough. I don't own Harry Potter. Every time I type that it hurts my soul.

Chapter 1: Something Wicked This Way Comes?

In Gringotts:

Aeronwen Potter was NOT a happy person right now. Nope she was furious. At who you may ask?

Dumbledore, Mrs. Weasley, Ronald, The Minister, -if you can call him that Aeronwen preferred deranged old man, though that was also an apt description for Dumbledore as well- and quite a few of the Order of the Flaming Chicken's members -sorry Fawkes!

And WHY was she angry at them?

Simple.

They. Had. Lied. To. Her. About. EVERYTHING!

Though in Fudge's case he just kept sending his cronies after her. But still.

How exactly did she find this out you may ask?

Simple again.

The Goblins. Yep. She had made it a point after third year to investigate as much as she could into her Dogfather's arrest and -not- trial.

Aeronwen snorted. Trial? More like a straight one way trip from the street they found him right to Azkaban. She had been working with the Goblins to make sure nothing else was wrong with her families accounts.

And that's where she started hitting the ceiling. Turns out the Dursley's -Read Vernon apparently Petunia and Dudley had no clue about it- were being paid to mistreat her. Her parent's Will -which was sealed by Dumbledore...she would deal with him later...- was never carried out. There was nothing the Ministry could do if it was stated in an Ancient and Noble Houses last known heir's Will that they wanted their child somewhere.

Where was she supposed to go instead of her mother's sister and her deranged husband?

Remus Freakin Lupin was supposed to be her guardian and magical guardian as well if Sirius was unable. Remus would have received money to care for her as well as himself as James and Lily had actually made him his own vault that was to be given to him in the event something happened to them, or they gave it to him themselves.

Aeronwen had the feeling that he would have fainted if he found out how much was currently in there, but she had given him the keys and told him not to ask any questions. But she gave him a copy of her parents will instead. Even then he had fainted. When he woke up he was in full 'protective wolf mode' and started growling and ranting about crazy old goats...she had a feeling that the growls were wolf swears.

Once she told Petunia and Dudley -after 5th year of course, thank goodness Sirius didn't die in the DoM- about Vernon getting paid to abuse her, they hit the roof as well. Turns out Vernon had been threatening them to treat her that way -as Veritaserum had proved- and they had apologized profusely. Dudley had begun training her in a little hand to hand to defend herself, after he and his mum had moved out of Number 4.

Aeronwen couldn't help but smile when she thought of the relationship she now had with her Aunt and Cousin. But it turned to a frown again when she remembered what else the Goblins had dug up.

Molly and Ronald Weasley -much to the shock of the rest of their family she was relieved to note- were being paid by the Headmaster -out of her family vault no less!- to befriend, and in Ron's case eventually try to marry her...which she couldn't help but shudder at. The Twins were furious, Charlie and Bill were currently not speaking to their youngest brother and their mother, Arthur was filing for divorce, but Ginny was one of the worst. She had hexed her mother and brother so badly -and with her anger her bat-bogey was more powerful than normal- that they had to be taken to St. Mungo's. However, the plus side is that Molly and Ronald were unaware that she knew the reason behind the family's sudden reason to turn on the two.

Arthur and the rest of the family had apologized for Molly and Ronald. Then proceeded to tell her she was still apart of the family no matter what. The Twins had pulled her aside and told her that no matter what they were on her side. They confessed the real reason they left school. They had found out about Dumbledore's plans for her. Which they then proceeded to tell her in detail. They told her that she had believed in them when hardly anyone else did, and they would be forever grateful for that.

Aeronwen had hugged them and told them that they had always been like brothers to her -after getting to know Bill and Charlie more, the same could be said about them now- and that she was happy to help them in any way possible. She even gave them a spelled copy of her dad's pranking journal -a Marauders journal- and told them to have fun with it and to keep her updated.

Bill had helped her learn Goblin customs and courtesies so she could improve her relations with her friends at Gringotts.

Which only made the Goblins give her the title of 'Goblin Friend' with more enthusiasm.

Charlie had taught her more about Dragons and she had learned her Parseltongue extended to Dragons as well. Which made the older Weasley brother ecstatic and invite her to visit him in Romania when she had the chance so she could try it out.

Ginny and her were already like sisters and had ganged up and told Hermione everything.

The Lioness was LIVID...to say the least. She shuddered again. Hermione was really scary when she was angry. So now Hermione was in on the plot to bring down everyone who had hurt her friend and sister.

But back to the matter at hand. She looked at the Goblin sitting across from her and grinned at him. "Thank you Griphook. I really can't thank you enough for the help you and your brethren have given me over the past 3 years."

Griphook grinned back. Showing as much teeth as Aeronwen was. "It was our pleasure Lady Potter-Gryffindor-Slytherin-Black. To be quite honest we have been trying to find a way to stop the old goat from meddling where he shouldn't but," he shrugged "there is little the Goblin Nation could do against him with the titles he holds in the Wizarding World." He grinned again showing even more teeth. "For now anyway." He straightened in his seat. "Now that you have your Head of House rings, we can discuss you freeing the Malfoy's from the threat of the Dark Lord. As well as trying to lift that insanity curse off of the man."

That was another thing. Draco had found her one day at the end of 5th year and explained everything to her. Apparently the Dark Lord had a moment of clarity, and had told Draco's father a few things. In the beginning Draco was only mean to her -in actuality he had only mainly targeted Ron now that she thought about it- because if he befriended her and the Dark Lord rose again, she would be in danger. His father had given him the task of keeping an eye on the young heiress, and so far he had been successful. Lord Malfoy had actually purposefully put the diary in Ginny's cauldron so that it could be destroyed...he just didn't expect her to write in it.

That was the other... thing. Apparently Tom did create Horcruxes, however only one was real. When he was younger he knew that he needed a way to guarantee that he could survive if Dumbledore came after him. Only one of the seven was real. The Slytherin Locket was the only real Horcrux and she currently wore it around her neck to protect it.

"I've gotten in contact with Draco who has passed a message on to his father. They are both going to come in to the bank on Saturday claiming to be withdrawing money for Yule presents. I've left a protection ring with the second Black Heir ring that Draco will be taking into his possession. The ring will negate the Dark Mark for the Malfoy family. A second ring will be given to Tom to help drain the magic keeping him insane." she glanced at the clock on the wall. "Unfortunately, I have to get back to my Godfather. Thank you again for your help Griphook. May your gold ever flow and your enemies fall before you." she said bowing and after he bowed back she stepped out of the room.

Only to run into another Man.

Aeronwen:

"I'm sorry Sir. I didn't see you." seeing that both of us had been knocked over, I was about to get up when I saw a gloved hand in front of my face. Looking up at the person I had run into, I will admit that I couldn't help but stare.

He had almost feathered hair which was blonde. He had one light blue and one dark blue eye. I had a feeling that I had seen him somewhere before but I shook it off and took the outstretched hand and he pulled me up.

He seemed to also be studying me and smiled a little. "It's no problem, I wasn't paying much attention either. I think it only fair I introduce myself. Jareth Bonatyne. I'm afraid I've never seen you before."

I was honestly glad that someone hadn't heard of me or seen a picture of me. "Aeronwen Potter-Gryffindor-Slytherin-Black. Please just call me Kia. I feel like I'm in trouble if someone calls me by my full name." I said shaking his hand. "It's nice to meet you. I wish it had been under better circumstances though." I chuckled and he joined in.

"As I've said it really is no problem." He seemed to ponder for a moment. "Ah so you are the one all the British Wizards and Witches are talking about then?" he must have seen me go to protest because he smiled and waved it off. "I don't pay attention to gossip. I prefer to get my information from the source. I don't like the Prophet enough to read it either. You don't have to worry about that."

I found myself letting out a relieved sigh and managed to gave him a smile. "Sorry. I'm just used to people knowing who I am and making assumptions based on what they have heard or read. You have no idea how nice it is to meet someone who doesn't listen to what the Prophet has been spouting about me." I thought for a moment. "Which reminds me. I need to talk to Ragnok and Griphook about suing Skeeter for slander." I said mostly to myself.

Jareth:

To say I was shocked would be an understatement. So this is the "savior" of the wizarding world? I mentally shook my head. These fools were putting too much pressure on one girl, no I corrected myself, young woman.

I made a mental note to ask Ragnok about the young woman standing before me. Shaking my head, I turned my attention back to the woman in front of me. "I'd have to agree with you on that. Ms. Skeeter has overstepped her bounds on several occasions, I'm sorry to say most have indeed been about you." I smiled and placed a hand on the young Lady's shoulder. "If you ever need any help with her, be sure to let me know. I have some contacts with barrister's that may benefit you." 'Plus that woman has been a thorn in my side for many a year. Before Kia became her target she was attempting to slander my name as well.' I mentally added with a shark like mental smirk. 'Too bad all her efforts on bringing me down were futile.' I sincerely hoped that this young woman would be able to thwart Skeeter as well as I had now she had the power to do so.

Speaking of power. I could see her magical energy swirling around her. It was a wild type of magic that I hadn't seen in a while, and in this quantity? Never not even in the old fey of the Underground. I began to wonder...

The young Witch smiled at me, and I couldn't help but feel that she hadn't had much reason in her life to smile. "Thank you, I would appreciate it." she glanced over my shoulder at the wall clock and her eyes widened. "I'm so sorry but I have to go." she halted for a moment. "It really was nice meeting you Jareth." she turned and started towards the main entrance of the Bank. "And thanks again!" she called over her shoulder still smiling.

I myself couldn't help the smile that appeared on my face at the young woman's parting words. Perhaps I should keep an eye on this Witch. She could prove to be interesting and worth the risk of exposing who I truly am. If only to help her better prepare for her future.

I sighed. I could feel the call of the impending wish begin, and now I would have to deal with some irritating child again. I groaned as I heard a child say the sentence I was beginning to become irritated with.
