Chapter One:
I don't own Harry Potter or Vampire Diaries. Although like many others I wish I did. Lol
Summary: Pandora (Female Harry Potter) has won the war but the price was to high she has lost all her friends, and family. She can't stand to be in the wizarding world any more to much pain and loss. Deciding to travel the world one she runs into Klaus on one of her stops. They are different sides to the same coin. He's dark, she's light. This will be around the time before Haley slept which means they won't be sleeping together.

Pandora walked across the bridge overlooking Hogwarts. She had just vanquished the Dark Lord Voldemort for the second and last time, and for the first time she felt free. Free of the expectations, free of the whispers and stares, and free of the titles, Freak, Liar, Girl-Who-Lived, The Chosen One. She looked to the school she had once called home. The beautiful castle once filled with light and laughter of children now blood-stained ruins where many warriors died. She no longer felt peace like she once did. When peace used to be after class and pleased with the knowledge that there was no homework it was now when the fact that no one close to you had died that day and that you could rest easy one more night. Many of her friends and family had died in the war. She sat down on a piece of rubble of what she thought was a column from the entrance hall and sighed. A few minutes later as she was thinking of her old life she broke down crying for all of those she lost to the war. Her mother, father, Sirius, Hermione, Ron, Fred, George, Colin, and so, so many more.
Pandora couldn't believe how innocent she had been in the war. She had like her friends truly believed that they would all make it out of the war without losing anyone. They had been so young, so innocent, so naive not truly understanding that in war you can lose people who you love and care for. Pandora couldn't help but wonder if this is how her parents, Remus, and Sirius felt after losing some of their closest friends and family.
During the war Pandora had faced some of the world's worst evils. Children being tortured daily until they are begging for death just to take the pain away, mothers and fathers having to watch their children beg for them to save them but unable to do anything other then hope and pray that if their is some higher being out their to make their children stop suffering, unborn babies being ripped out of their mother's stomachs both left to die, people being tortured with the brazen bull, and so, so much more. A few months into the war she had realized how fucked up humans can be. Pandora had changed from the naive little girl into a war hardened woman over the last three years. Slowly her thoughts turned away from the torture to the magical world. She hadn't thought about after the war how many witches and wizards would be left after both sides good and bad ruthlessly killed the other. It would take many years for the magical world to return to normal. Many years for magic to stabilize. Many years until those left from the war to heal, if they could at all. A whole generation of magicals almost wiped out. If only they had listened to her warning all those years ago then maybe things would have played out differently, less slaughter, less torture, less destruction. But there's no point thinking about what if's.
After sitting there for what seemed to be hours getting her emotions under control, Pandora stood up looking at Hogwarts for the final time before appariting to Diagon Alley. As Pandora was walking up to Gringotts Wizarding Bank she was thinking of what she wanted to do now that the war was over. She knew that she no longer wanted to stay in the world she had once loved so much. She knew that if she tried that she would be haunted by the memories of her lost loved ones. She would also never heal thus she had to get away from the wizarding world.
When Pandora walked into the bank many goblins stared at her. Knowing that she had to talk to someone regarding the damage she and her friends caused and about her vaults, she went up to the nearest teller and in a quiet but steady voice as to not gather the attention of the other magicals around her she said, "I wish to speak with the account manager of the Potter and Black estates please." The teller looked down at her and said, "Identification please." She handed her hand to him palm up so that her blood could be used as identification. The goblin took her hand and sliced her palm with a knife without saying a word. Pandora winced as the knife sliced her hand open and healed it with her wand. The teller then motioned to another goblin. "Lady Potter-Black wishes to speak with her account manager," said the teller to the other goblin. The other goblin said, "Please follow me Lady Potter-Black." Pandora followed without saying a word. He led her through the side door down a long corridor. After a few minutes of walking they turned to a large set of double doors. Pausing the goblin knocked on the door waiting until they heard "Enter." The goblin opened the door and allowed Pandora to enter before turning around and leaving, shutting the door behind him. Pandora who had never spoken with her account manager looked around the large room with awe (as there were many weapons and other magical objects) before going to the chair that was in front of the desk.
"Lady Potter-Black, I have been waiting almost a year for you to come to claim your vaults. My name is Groton and I am the current account manager of the Potter and Black estates. Please have a seat as we have much to discuss in this meeting," Groton said motioning to the chair opposite of him.
"Thank you, and please call me Pandora," Pandora responded finally sitting down.
"Very well Lady... I mean Pandora let us begin. First there is the matter of your inheritance which I am assuming you came to claim today," Groton said as he handed her a very think folder.
"You would be correct in your assumption." She said taking the folder.
"Very well. As you can see in that folder is a lot contracts and other various documents. The first section is all paperwork that you need to sign with a blood quill unfortunately. You may take up to a year to go through it all. Then the next few sections involve the estates monetary values, properties, income, etc. Then the last section involves information about families allied to the Potter family and Black family." The next few hours included learning all about what was in this folder.
"Now onto the next problem, we must speak about payment for the damage done to the bank after you and your comrades removed the horcrux of Tom Marvolo Riddle also known as Lord Voldemort from the vault of Bellatrix Lestrange. As the Lestrange family is now extinct the vault will be turned over to you as you are the only person related to her that is not in jail or similar arrangements."
"I will pay all that is due to repair the damages caused by me and my past comrades out of the main Potter vault," Pandora answered in response to Groton. After that was settled she had the goblins make her muggle identification and book a flight from Britain to Germany. Pandora, Ron, and Hermione had planned on traveling there after the war was over and she decided to honor her friends memories by going there herself.
