A. N: This is the revised copy of The Will. The first chapter is finished. Still it is not much longer, though the next one should be. Spelling should be fixed for a lot of it. Um, that is all enjoy the story, or actually the first chapter.
The Will
The letters from Dumbledore to the durslys, and the letter to Harry from his father. Also some notes, but not in this chapter.
Harry was stumbling amongst ruins of his house, the house he had lived in when he was 1 years old. Like most wizard houses it was built in the country away from curious muggles. It was also hiding a secret, a secret that Harry will soon find out.
" Harry! Harry! You won't believe what I've found!" Yelled Ron with a look of awe on his face. Harry rushed over to where Ron was standing, but there was nothing there. Nothing worth noticing, there were ruins of his house. A piece of a broomstick, a little brief case, which looked kind of, like a toy. " These are all ruins, what's there to see?" " Look carefully at the brief case Harry, what do you see near the handle?" " It says J.P." "Harry, don't you get it, it's your fathers James Potter's!" Said Ron in a very excited voice. Harry didn't really believe that for he had given up hope on finding anything in these ruins long before he came here.
"Okay, let's open it, mind you muggle's could have been here before." Harry said while opening the briefcase.
As Harry opened the brief case, he suddenly went in to a kind of weird trance.
"James, come and help me put little Harry to bed."
"Just a sec. need to finish something"
"Harry, Harry what are you doing?" Asked Ron, in a rather worried voice. "What? Oh nothing... nothing at all" as Harry said that his mind was suddenly distracted by the contents with in the briefcase, and started reading the first piece of paper he saw. (Scroll actually)
Dear Harry,
If you are reading this piece of paper right now. It must mean that I am dead at least. For this piece of letter is to render it's self-invisible, unless the writer is dead. Is your mom alive? I hope so. For it would be my biggest sin in life, and after. Perhaps you can still remember from when you were a babe... What voldemort said to us? I'll refresh your memory.
"
James, join me, and I won't hurt her. It is you I need, and the boy" I know why he wanted us Harry, but well I wouldn't like to have this letter fall in to the wrong hands. So it is up to you to figure out why. With my clues.P.S. Godrics hollow has been in our family for years. Perhaps that would provide a clue to you.
"What a waste of paper" exclaimed Ron " I could write 5 stories in that empty space" Ron had recently become reporter for the daily prophet, and let's just say the paper they get to write a story in is smaller then the smallest scroll you have ever seen.
Harry was obviously not listening to Ron, since he was once again reading something.
Fear not my brave son, for the answer is not far.
Look for the answer at the crack of dawn,
When the moon was full the day before.
Until the day of myrtle has come, you must wait...
Further more figures out this clue, and it shall help you to find the chamber, the potter's chamber where all is hidden, and all is revealed.
Find the place where pumpkins grow, near the forest where I loved to roam.
Giant spiders in the pumpkin patch feast upon Human flesh, so beware...3 days and 3 nights of food you should take, since 3 days, and 3 nights you shall walk. AT 2,2 you stop, and dig! Think arithmancy
"That was an interesting poem" said Ron smirking a bit. "I wonder what it meant?" " I basically know what it means, except for the 2,2 part. Let's got ask Hermione, I think she'll know. It seemed like it was her favorite subject at Hogwarts."
"Harry, you know he's right." Said Ron clearly pondering something "this is called Godrics hollow"
" Yep, and not many wizarding families live here, because it has been owned by the potters, and the Boons for quite a while, until the death of both family in 1981 the year of Voldemort's down fall, Harry Potter." Said a Harry putting on a business tone. " Hermione told me so" Said Harry again seeing the look on Ron's face.
"Let's go back now, I bet Hermione is waiting for us. It's already 7, and we promised to meet her at 6:30." Said Ron " I don't like her lectures about being on time"
"Okay" said Harry, "but I think I'll take the brief case with me, for better examination. I still haven't read all of the contents yet either" Then with a pop Harry disapparated to the Leaky Caldron, where Hermione was. Ron quickly followed.
A. N:
Okay this is the kind of revised version of it. Plus I finished the chapter 1. I haven't had much time to work on it. The next chapter will be done pretty soon, like a few days or so. I have to study and stuff. Don't have that much time. Besides I some times get writer's block. (Don't you just hate that?) Oh yeah, I know the riddle thing sucks, but I don't write good riddles, or actually can't write good riddles. I won't waste your time with my bluff. Go read some other story now, why don't ya! Come back soon!P. S I have not planned out chapter 2 yet, so give me some time.
