AN:

Hi Guys, It has been a long time since I last updated this story and I was reading over it and decided to rewrite it since I wrote this story years ago. I hope you enjoy the changes that I made. Any suggestion you might have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all my readers for reading.

Disclaimer: Characters and setting all come from the harry potter books and as such I do not own them. The plot however is all mine.

CONTAINS SLASH DONT READ IF YOU DONT LIKE

"Harry" Somebody yelled from downstairs. "Get down here we're leaving in 10 minutes you need to eat." Today they were going to get their school stuff. It was early in the holidays so hopefully Diagon alley would be quieter then when they usually went. He rolled out of bed and went over to his trunk to get some clothes to change into before heading into the bathroom to freshen up. Harry trudged down the stairs and into the kitchen. When he reached the kitchen Ron and Hermione where already eating. They both looked up at him when he entered.

"Harry, are you okay? You look really tired." Hermione asked, she was starting to get worried about him. It was obvious that he hadn't been sleeping well lately.

"I'm fine I just had another nightmare. It was really strange. I can't remember anything about it, only little things. Like there was a strange white glow then I was spinning. Kind of like a port key but it hurt. It hurt so much. There was a woman speaking as well but I can't remember what she was saying." He replied softly, Hermione had been his friend since first year when the troll got into the school. She had changed so much since then. Back in first year her hair was big and bushy and she was the biggest nerd. She was completely against breaking the rules and was such a know-it-all. Now after five years she had cut her hair and now wore it straight and usually in a sleek ponytail. She was still a know-it-all but doesn't mind breaking the rules now if it was for a good reason. She had big brown eyes and could throw an awesome punch.

His other best mate was Ron. Ron was a tall lanky red head from a huge family. Ron had six older brothers and a younger sister. Being the youngest son of such a large family was always hard on him. Ron hadn't changed much since they met in first year. He was still naïve and only saw the world in black and white. Over the years Harry had started to look past Dumbledore's words and see the world in shades of grey. He and Ron had started to drift apart and Harry didn't know how to fix it or if he even wanted to.

"It was weird. Kind of like a prophecy. The voice sounded exactly like Trelawney's when she made that prophecy in my 3rd year. Low and husky I guess you could say. The only thing I clearly remember is 'son of time born again.' I don't know what it means, but I don't like it." Harry continued

The kitchen was silent as they all thought about it. After a couple of minutes silence Mione said "We should go, I have some books that I want to buy."

Harry nodded and they got up and walked into the living room to use the fire. When they walked into the room Mrs. Weasley spoke up, "Harry dear, you go first."

He nodded and took a handful of floo powder, threw it in then stepped into the fire. "Daigonn alley." He must have said the name wrong because when he fell out of the floo he wasn't at the leaky cauldron, but was instead in Borgin and Burkes. Last time he had been in here was in 2nd year because of the same mistake with the floo. Last time he had been scared by the appearance of the shop and couldn't wait to get out of it, this time however he could see the beauty in the shop and decided to stay and check out the shop. He had almost gone around the whole store when He came across the most beautiful set of jewelry he had ever seen.

There was an amulet attached to a leather band that went around your neck. The amulet was of a gold snake that was woven around a staff. The snake had emerald eyes and the staff had a diamond at the top. The rings both had a plain gold band. The first ring was embedded with a mix of diamond and emerald stones and had a Latin inscription on the underside of the band which said 'filius de tempus prognatus iterum'. The other was a lordship ring. The emblem on the lordship ring was 2 snakes wrapped around a staff with wands behind them. One of the snakes had emerald and the other had diamond eyes. Finally there was a protection bracelet. It was a plain band made of leather that once put on can't be taken off by anyone but the person who put it on. It had runes written around it and had a snake with a ruby in the center.

"Wow" He whispered softly.

"Indeed it is but it is extremely expensive and is a bit temperamental." Harry looked up startled to see the shop keeper standing behind him.

"Temperamental?" He asked.

"Oh yes. It won't let anyone touch it. Last time someone tried they got burnt pretty badly. Would you like to try it?" Harry looked back at the jewelry and something about it called to him.

"Can I? Why do you think it won't let other people touch it?"

"It is waiting for its true owner. It's descendent." Harry raised his eyebrow at the shop keep and asked incredulously,

"Really, and you want me to try it?"

Harry was unsure but when the shop keeper nodded he looked back at the ring and slowly reached his hand forward and touched the lordship ring. It didn't do anything so he slowly slid it onto his finger. It resized its self to fit perfectly on his ring finger. There was a green and silver misty glow surrounding him for a moment before it slowly was drawn back into the ring.

"This ring was last claimed by Salazar Slytherin you know. Some people think it might have even come from the time of Merlin himself." He explained

"What was that? I've never seen something like that happen before." He asked. He was slightly freaked out.

"Of course not young man that is what happens when a lordship ring accepts its owner. Only those who have a lordship ring have seen that happen before. The colors that the ring creates around its owner represents the house colors. That is why you glowed Green and Silver because they are the Slytherin house colors."

"Wow, so because the ring accepted me I'm now the lord of the house?" He was very confused, he hadn't really looked into wizarding history or customs before and hadn't heard about anything like this in muggle customs.

"That is exactly what it means young man. You are the descendent of a very powerful family young man. We must go to Gringotts immediately. They will be able to explain all the Slytherin house traditions to you. Oh and you can take those. They do belong to you after all." He explained further.

"Thank-you" Harry said as the shopkeeper went out back to get the closed sign. They walked in silence up the alley and straight into Gringotts. The goblins ignored us on the way to the back counter of the bank.

"What can I do for you?" The goblin asked looking at the shop keeper.

"Griphook, The ring has been claimed." He shop keeper explained to the goblin

"Oh my, quickly follow me. Magnod will be pleased" The goblin led us down a narrow corridor. We walked for about 5 minutes before we reached a small room. Griphook knocked on the door three times before yelling inside,

"Magnod he is here. The ring was claimed." An old sounding gravelly voice called back,

"Send him in." Griphook opened the door and bowed to Magnod before signaling for us to enter. Once we were inside he shut the door.

"Your highness, I'm sorry for the inconvenience but I need you to sign a few documents and then I need a vial of blood to finalize emancipation rules and get you your vault keys."

"Your highness?" Harry asked.

"This is the king's ring. Only true royalty can wear it. There have been stories about this ring for many centuries. Stories about you."

"Oh, um, sure" he signed the forms and handed them back.

"How do I get the blood Magnod? I haven't done this before."

"Of course your highness, I'm sorry. I will do it for you"

"Thank-you Magnod." Magnod got a vial out of his desk and put it under my arm. He said something I didn't understand and the vial started to fill up. "That's awesome." he inclined his head slightly before turning and walking over to a work bench on the other side of the room. He picked up a strange cabinet and walked back to us.

"What does that do?" Harry asked.

"When I place a drop of you blood in this section it will analyze it and tell me what you will inherit. It will also create lordship rings and they will end up in here." I nodded to tell him to put the blood in it. The cabinet glowed white for a second before there was the sound of rings being dropped. When it was quiet again Magnod opened the lid and pulled out the rings. Inside there was 7 rings.

"Each of these rings is for a different family. You have the Potter, Parker, Aven, Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw Rings."

"How is it possible to have so many? And why do I have the Slytherin one? What about tom."

"Tom Riddle is a descendant of the main tree of Slytherin however his family is descended from Salazar's second son and so with you being from his first son you are eligible for the ring while he is not."

"Really, does he know that?" Harry asked. He couldn't believe he was related to tom riddle.

"He is aware that he isn't the lord however he has access to the main vault as you do since no one was aware of who the lord was. Once the Slytherin ring has accepted you as lord you can change the vault to only accept you."

"Nah that's ok I don't want to take away his heritage. It's the only link he has to his family. "Magnod nodded his head and walked over to a filing cabinet and got out some forms

"Last thing you need to do is sign this and you will be seen as an adult in both the wizarding and muggle worlds." Harry took the quill and signed his name. A flash of light went off and then the forms disappeared.

"I have put a charm on the rings so it will look like you are only wearing one but it will change when you say the name. It will make it easier to keep all the rings with you and safe" he took the rings from Magnod and slipped them on. There was a rush of energy throughout Harry's body and the room glowed brightly for a moment before fading.

"That was you magic reacting to the rings it has accepted them. Is there anything else you needed or would you like me to take you back?"

"Can I please go to my vault to get some money I need to buy my school stuff today? There are a few things I need to get, I can't believe I haven't heard of some of these things before. I definitely have some reading to do." He told Magnod

"I'll take you myself. If you would like I can create a list of books that would be helpful to you in the future." He offered.

"Thank-you Magnod. That would be great" he had always thought that goblins were mean, greedy creatures but maybe he was wrong about that.

"Now, before we leave I would like to offer you a few things. This is a money bag that is connected to your vault. It can be tied to your magic as a security measure so that no one can steal your money. All you have to do is stick your hand in the top and think about the amount of money you need. The money will then be taken from your account." Harry nodded

"That would be great." He accepted the Bag the Magnod passed him and felt a small tug on his magic." Harry looked up at Magnod and smiled.

"Now the last thing I need you to do is give me a list of people you would like to be allowed to access your vaults, I know in the past you have allowed Dumbledore and the Weasley's to access your trust fund and we can leave that as it is or you can allow them access into all of you vaults if you would like." Harry looked up shocked.

"What do you mean they have access to my vaults? I never agreed to that" He asked incredulously.

"Dumbledore brought in a signed letter from you when you were ten allowing them access to everything. We wouldn't have accepted it if it wasn't for the fact that it was signed with blood." Magnod explained.

"I was in the muggle world when I was ten. I didn't even meet the Weasley's till I turned 11. How much have they taken?" Harry asked. He couldn't believe they had been stealing money from him since before they had even met. Why would they do that to him?

"They have been taking 25000 galleons out each year since they gained access and the younger children Ron and Ginny have been taking out 100 gallons a year each. Professor Dumbledore has been taking out between 50000 and 100000 gallons a year."

"I would like to close all my vaults, only I can have access until further notice and any changes must go through me in person."

"Yes sir, right away. Would you like to have us get all the money back?" He asked. Harry spent a moment thinking about it before shaking his head.

"It's alright they can keep what they took. If anyone tries to get more money out of my vaults please don't tell them that I know about, just tell them that my vaults have been closed to anyone but me."

Magnod nodded.

"Thank you for all your help Magnod, you have given me much to think about. I will be in contact later one. Please send me a list of those books as well as a list of all my assets." At his nod Harry stood up and left the room making his way back to the entrance of the bank. He had a lot to do.
