A flash of lightning flashed across the sky as the poor drenched avian made her way to her destination. It had been storming for the past week and the messenger knew what she carried would change everything. Not just the future but also heal the past, a past which should never have happened. As she reached the outskirts of her target home one could see a beautiful white streak descend from the clouds at an incredible speed. The blur began weaving as a light show flashed to life in a multitude of colors around her as if knowing this delivery would spell their doom. Reaching the edge of the property the owl could feel the air thicken then snap as if entering a bubble. Soon she reached her destination and tapped on the window.
A steady tap, tap, tap brought the rooms owner. "Oh Hedwig," the owner sighed as she let the owl in. Hedwig immediately flew over to a perch in the corner and began to preen her feathers. Meanwhile, the girl closed the window and crossed the room. "Anything yet," the girl pleaded to her feathery friend. At that Hedwig lifted her leg to reveal a golden tube delicately tied there.
The girl shriek yelling, "Finally, I hope this is what we have been waiting for. I cannot keep hidden behind these wards forever."Taking the cylinder she turned it over in hands looking it over. Every surface of the container was beautifully decorated in a scene depicting a great battle at the center a man wielding a sword of silver fighting a snake like beast. While beautiful and mysterious this was not her priority right now. Opening the tube she withdrew the parchment and saw it was sealed. This seal showed a rampant griffin with wings spread impaling a snake like creature. "That is interesting," she said aloud. She then broke the seal and unrolled the parchment.
Dear Miss Granger,
I am High Chieftain Bloodbringer of the Gringotts Clan. I have been brought troubling news of your inquires by my team of bankers. Long has the Ancient Clan Gringotts called the Most Ancestral and Ancient House of Potter blood brother. That such an injustice has befallen the House of Potter troubles us most greatly. That you are under assault for discovering such web of false hoods is also troubling. I will speak with you in person and will ensure your safe arrival to our lands.
Before such happens Miss Granger, a great disservice has happened to yourself as well. You are not such first generation as you believe my Lady Granger of the Ancestral and Ancient house of Granger. Long has your family flourished since Atlantis and long has it been void of a magical heir. Be proud my Lady and be prepared. My personal guard shall personally arrive at you home to escort yourself her.
May your enemies blood run cold,
Chieftain Bloodbringer of Clan Gringotts
A loud thud accompanied Hermione fainting.
Meanwhile another flash of lightning accompanied the pop of ten Heavily armored goblins down the road. One warrior step forward and scanned ahead. "Captain the way is clear of mundane, however I smell a group of wizards half down the road," the goblin spoke low.
The Captain smiled a toothy smile, "Let them try, double column forward march," he growled.
Half down the road the wizards in question had turned to one another not sure why goblins approached, let alone armed ones. Being the brave one a lanky red head stepped forward.
"Master Goblins why do you approach this home," said the man.
Holding up his fist the goblins halted, "None of you business human, who are you to know our title."
"I am Bill Weasley, curse breaker at Gringotts Bank, and this house is under protection of Albus Dumbledore and has ordered none to pass."
"Well, well boy if you serve Gringotts then I order you to move aside and let our business be attended to. Else you force my hand."
Bill felt an invisible hand move him off the road. Then looking up he saw in a flash of thunder whom or rather what stood before them. In that flash he saw the seal of Gringotts emblazoned in gold upon one warriors shields. Turning to the other in a panic he spoke, "Guys we need to go those are the directors private guard this is not good for us."
Being a young man and not knowing better Steven Max stood up and declared, "I don't care who these lowly filth are, Professor Dumbledore said let none pass and Ill be damned to let them pass." At that he hurled a bombarda at the Goblin column.
The Captain grinned his toothy smile, "Extreme Prejudice, Bring me Weasley."
