A/N:

I started the rewriting of this story, now that I finished finals and have slept for the last 14 hours. I hope to spend the majority of the day working on my passion writing.

Chapter One

The young man sat on the cot in the dingy room. The entrance to the room was a door made of medal bars. The single window in the room had bars of metal on it also. The bars were there since the room was created some hundreds of years before, they had spells on them to keep them from rusting or being broken. This young man was Harry Potter and he was in his cell in Azkaban, Wizarding Prison of the British Isle. Harry was only 15 years old when he was sent here.

Harry was thrown into prison without a trial for the murder of the Dursleys'. They were found murdered with poison that had been placed in their food, not long after Harry had returned to their home for the summer break from his school. Although he was innocent, this could never be prooven due to the fact that he was not given the chance with a trial. Nor was he given a chance to seek legal representation.

Harry's meeting with the Wizengamot made him aware that Ron, Hermione, Molly, Arthur, McGonagall, Dumbledore, Trelawney, and Draco Malfoy believed that he was going evil and that they believed he had killed his relatives. They were called on to tell the Wizengamot what they thought and they made it clear they thought Harry was guilty. Severus, Hagrid, Fred, George, Tonks, Moody, and Remus believed he was innocent were not called upon by the Wizengamot because of this. Bill and Charlie were out of the country and did not know Harry that well so they were not called upon by the Wizengamot for a statement. The Wizengamot saw fit to send Harry to Azkaban without a true trial. They deemed him guilty and sentenced him to three life times in Azkaban.

Harry was thrown into Azkaban after his wand was taken and snapped in half. The pieces were burned before him, before he was put in his cell. Harry was put in his cell and was guarded by Aurors, seeing as how the Dementors were no longer guarding Azkaban, due to being in the service of Lord Voldemort.

Not long after the trial an article was printed in the Quibbler.

The-Boy-Who-Killed

is now

The-Boy-Who-Was-Robbed

It has come to this reporter's attention that the-boy-who-killed is now the-boy-who-was-robbed. Gringott's goblins have given me a statement on the side that has the withdrawals for the school vault of one Harry James Potter. This statement of withdrawals says that the 10 million galleons it contained was split evenly between the following people:

Ronald Weasley, Hermione Jane Bilius Granger, Molly Prewett Weasley, Arthur Weasley, Minerva McGonagall, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Sybill Trelawney, Draco Malfoy, Dolores Jane Umbridge, and Cornelius Oswald Fudge.

They were able to get into the school vault because those are the only vaults that the Ministry is allowed control over, by the goblins. The goblins do not allow the Ministry to seize any other type of vault to ensure that the built of a family estate does not fall into the wrong hands.

While the Ministry can not gain access to a vault of a family line that disappears, any private citizen can see the goblins about attempting to gain entrance to other family vaults. Most citizens chose to not take their chances as it is implied that the vaults have their own security systems that were set up by the families in ancient times.

Back to Mr. Potter. Who is currently sitting in a cell at the prison of Azkaban while those who put him there without a trial are enjoying his money and are trying to gain access to more of his money. We here at the Quibbler have had to ask our selves: Do we think Mr. Harry Potter is innocent?

We have taken an office survey to find out the answer. Our results came back that 100 of the Quibbler employees find Harry Potter not guilty of the murders he was wrongfully condemned for. We have found ourselves wondering who is guilty. So we have sent 5 reporters onto the story. The first one to find the killer of Vernon, Petunia, and Dudley Dursley will be receiving a healthy bonus.

Harry was sent a copy of the issue of the Quibbler by none other than Luna Lovegood. She included a short missive with the document.

Harry,

Don't think you killed those muggles. Here is an article I dropped a few hints for my father to write. He wrote it and it goes out this morning. Neville and his gran believe you are innocent too. Although Neville's gran has told us that she would not have sent you to Azkaban even if you did kill them, they deserved if from what she has heard. Hope you are doing alright, other than being locked up. I know that their aren't any Dementors around you, if there were we would have busted you out your first night. Hope we can get you out soon.

Sincerely Luna Lovegood

Harry was glad to know the Neville and Luna were on his side. He read the article and was pleased that there were people who still believed in him. He was disappointed that no one had sprung him out of prison though.

Just as he was thinking this he received another owl, one from a regal looking owl.

Dear Mr. Harry James Potter,

It has come to our attention that you are eligible to claim your family vaults. Due to the oddness of your circumstances this letter is a portkey that will make you arrive at Gringott's in Diagon Alley in the tellers back area. If you say "Gringott's" it will activate and bring you here. I suggest that you gather anything you do not want to leave behind.

Sincerely,

Rohnkok

Gringott's President

Harry looked at the letter in disbelief. The goblins were coming to his rescue? What madness was this? Ohh, well, don't bite the hand that saves you, Harry thought. "Gringott's," he said as he clutched the letter tightly, he felt a pulling sensation just behind his navel. With that the cell that had held Harry Potter for the last 8 months was empty once again.
