July 31 1996

I sat in my room reading my History of Magic textbook when I heard a tapping on the window. So I looked up and saw a magnificent looking Eagle Owl. I opened the window and the owl flew to my bed and landed. I walked over to it and took the letter attached to its beak. Mr H. Potter 4 Privet Drive Little Whinging, Surrey. I flipped the letter over and saw the Gringotts seal. I opened the letter and inside it read:

Dear Mr. Potter,

Mr. Potter Gringotts is requesting your time at 8AM on July 31 to discuss important matters, it is prudent that you come alone also plan for spending a few nights in Diagon Alley. I hope this letter finds you in the best condition. See you soon

Ragnok

Chief Goblin

Head of the Gringotts Bank

I put the letter down and stood up. It was currently 2AM so I decided to try and get some sleep. I fell into a dreamless sleep for the first time since before the ministry attack. The next morning I awoke to banging on my door I got up and got dressed in my nicest clothes then went downstairs. "Aunt Petunia I need to go into London to take care of some school stuff I will be back in three days." I said to my aunt. She glared at me and said "I am not driving you. You will be back before 10:45PM on Friday or you will be locked out for the evening." I nodded then checked the time 7:40AM.

I leapt toward the door after making sure I had my wand. I had enough money to get my to London via the Knight Bus. I stuck my wand out and the bus appeared. I said "Leaky Cauldron please Stan." Stan smiled and took my eleven sickles and told me to take a seat. Ten minutes later I was standing in front of Gringotts and I went inside.

I went up to a goblin and said "Harry Potter to see Ragnok Chief Goblin." The goblin glared down at me and said "Ragnok will be with you-." Just then "Mr. Potter please come with me. Ragnok is waiting." I looked at the little goblin and bowed then followed the second goblin. I was lead into an ornately decorated room and told to sit down. I sat down and waited for te goblin to come in. After five minutes of waiting Ragnok appeared and said "Mr. Potter thank you for finally coming to a meeting. We have been trying to contact you since you were fourteen."

I said "Mr. Ragnok sir I have only received the one letter from Gringotts. And that letter arrived at 2AM. I am sorry if I have insulted you I didn't do so intentionally." Ragnok said "That is what we feared your mail has been tampered with. We have sent you many letters regarding our need to contact you. Well it matters not at this time you are here now so we can discuss everything. If you will follow me we can go." I stood up and followed the Goblin and we arrived in a room and Ragnok said "Mr. Potter this room is a time delay room for every hour in here is one minute in the real world. So let us begin." We sat at a table and were served tea by another goblin.

Ragnok said "Mr. Potter we have noticed that there are several discrepancies in your account starting just after your parent's death. There have been several withdrawals of varying amounts the first being to Mrs. Petunia Dursley the amount being 1,000,000 galleons. Mrs. Dursley has spent little more then 250,000 galleons. We will recover the rest. The second being to Mrs. Arabella Figg in the amount of 12,000 galleons a year for the last fifteen years totalling in 180,000 galleons as of last week. The third was made to Arthur and Molly Weasley of 50,000 galleons in 1991. Also in 1991 Ronald Weasley was given 12,000 galleons. Fred and Geoorge Weasley were given 12,000 each but it was returned immediately. In July 1992 new payments were given to the Weasleys of the same amount plus 12,000 to Miss. Weasley. Every year since then the payments were made."

I said "Who made these payments? I never approved any payments at all to anyone." Ragnok said "It appears Albus Dumbledore has been making the withdrawals and after you were 11 he had your signature. We will retrieve the money for you Mr. Potter. Also now that you are 16 you are able to take your Lordship of the Potter, Evans and Black Estates. All we need is a few drops of your blood to verify." I said "I am not a Black. Sirius is my Godfather."

Ragnok smiled a sharp toothed smile and said "I see let us read Mr. Blacks will and also your mother and fathers." He snapped his fingers and the documents appeared he said "Lily and James first." He opened the will and began to read it.

"This is the last will and testament of Lily Angela Evans Potter.

I Lily Evans-Potter hereby bequeath the following items to Mr. Remus John Lupin: I leave the little cottage in Ireland that you met your wife. I also leave you partial custody of my angel Harry Potter. I also bequeath you 20,000,000 galleons.

To Miss Hermione Jean Lupin, My darling goddaughter I love you and I wish you well in your entire life. To you I leave 20,000,000 galleons. When you turn sixteen you will become Lady Evans the goblins will contact you on September 19 1995. My dear please keep my Harry safe and be his big sister. I love you.

To Mrs Jane Karly Lupin I love you and I leave you 20,000,000 galleons please survive the war and take care of Mya and Harry. I love you.

To Sirius Orion Black you SOB I love you and as much of an ass you were in school you really stepped up as a godfather to Harry and for that you will always be my brother. To you I leave custody of Harry and hope that you finally find a girl and settle down and have a kid. Harry needs a little brother or sister to take care of. You are Harry's family now. You, Remus, Hermione and Jane I sincerely hope you all survive the war.

To Severus Tobias Snape you were my best friend we may have had our ups and downs but in the end we were best friends you will always have my love. I love you as my big brother. You protected me from the people who wanted to hurt me. I am sorry that you had to hide so much as a spy. I really hope you are free by now. To you I leave 50,000,000 galleons. Take care of Harry. Love him do not let him die.

My darling Harry James Evans-Potter,

I love you more than anything I would give my life for you and I hope that if I die it is to defend you my darling. To you I leave everything else the entire Evans fortune. You are Lord Evans-Potter and Hermione will be Lady Evans-Lupin. She is a terrific girl I hope she is like a sister to you. I love you son and please don't give Siri and Remy too much trouble growing up.

HARRY JAMES EVANS-POTTER IS UNDER NO UNCERTAIN TERMS TO GO TO HIS AUNT PETUNIA'S.

To Petunia I leave 1 knut you wretched cow. You and Vernon are horrible people.

Lily Evans-Potter."

I knew I had tears in my eyes as I listened to Ragnok. He said "Mrs. Evans Potter left you a total of 345,890,999 galleons, 17,132,547 sickles and 23,789 knuts. Also you have received the Evans Manor in the countryside, there is a flat above the store in Diagon Alley. The store Zonkos Joke Shoppe at 68 Diagon Alley. The shop closed many years ago but I know of a couple of boys who are looking to buy the store. Fred and George Weasley. They are looking to purchase 68 Diagon Alley to make it their new joke shop. You also have Zonkos Joke Shoppe in Hogsmeade along with a cottage down the road. 111 Hogsmeade Lane.

I said "If you can get Fred and George in today I would like to speak with them about a few things. Also can you draw up the paperwork for the store and the flat?" Ragnok motioned toward another goblin I recognized as Griphook the very first goblin I had ever met. I said "Hello Griphook How are you?" Griphook said "You recognized me Lord Evans-Potter. Most if not all wizards can not tell us apart." I smiled and said "You were the first non-wizard magical being I ever met. I will always recognize you." Griphook smiled and nodded then talked to Ragnok in a low voice that I couldn't hear.

A few moments later Ragnok nodded and dismissed Griphook then said "Alright on to the next will. James will be next. I nodded and he began to read.

"This is the last will and testament of James Marcus Potter.

I hereby bequeath the following items:

To Sirius Orion Black:

You are my brother my best friend and for that I hope you will raise my son Harry as your own. I leave you my son Harry James Evans Potter. I need someone to teach him all our pranks. I also leave you Potter Cottage as it was the first place you truly felt you had a home. I love you Padfoot.

To Remus John Lupin, Hermione Jean Lupin and Jane Karly Lupin:

Remus you are my brother my best friend. I know we had issues as we grew up. One of those being that you kept the fact of your furry little problem a secret because you thought I would not like you as a werewolf. My darling Moony I never would have turned on you. You were there for me when I really needed a brother. To you I leave my son Harry, my brother Sirius and I also make you an honorary Potter. You also receive 20,000,000 galleons to be paid in knuts. Also let someone take you shopping or clothes and no grey.

You will always have my love. I love you Moony.

To Hermione Jean:

You my darling goddaughter and the most beautiful little girl I have ever met. I love you and hope you have a wonderful life. When you turn 16 you will not only become Lady Evans-Lupin but you will also inherit the title of Princess Potter. I will not make you Lady potter as Harry may marry someday. You will inherit 50,000,000 galleons at this time as well.

To Jane Karly:

You my dear sister receive 15,000,000 galleons. Go take a vacation.

To Severus Tobias Snape:

I leave you 20,000,000 galleons for being a great uncle to Harry. Also don't let him get away with anything at Hogwarts as I know you will be the Potion's professor one day. I James Marcus Potter hereby apologize to you for all of the things I did to you in school. I know you will have to be tough on Harry so that your position as a spy is not compromised but as of age sixteen he is to know the truth. I also ask that if at sixteen Harry needs a place to stay you allow him to stay with you. Knowing Dumbledore and his meddling he will put Harry with the Dursleys but as soon as he takes his Lordship he will be able to live with a wizard. Please show him the uncle Sevy we all saw when he was a baby.

To Harry James Evans-Potter:

To you I leave everything else. I love you son. You are the light at the end of my tunnel. I hope that if you are reading this then I died to save you and your mother. I hope you have a good life if I am not there to raise you. You are a direct descendant to Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin. You are the heir to Hogwarts. DO NOT TELL ANYONE EXCEPT: Remus, Siri, Sev, Hermione and Jane. You are also a direct descendant to Merlin through your mother. You are a terrific human. I know Severus is probably treating you like an ass and I hope you can forgive him. I was a horrideous human to him and I didn't deserve his friendship but he gave it to me. Please as soon as you turn 16 go to Severus he will be expecting you. 787 Spinners End. I love you son and I will always watch over you.

James Marcus Potter."

Ragnok handed me two rings he said "These are the Potter and Evans Lordship rings. When we take the drops of blood to prove you are Harry James Evans-Potter you will put them on and then you will have access to the familial vaults. There are seven direct Potter vaults and 14 other vaults through the other families. Also you will need to decide what to do about Hogwarts because now that you have acknowledged that you are the true heir Hogwarts know and will only respond to you or someone you personally appoint."

I nodded then said "Lets get to the last will please. Then we can discuss the other things." Ragnok nodded and pulled out the document and began to read:

The last will and testament of Sirius Orion Black-Potter

I Sirius Orion Black-Potter hereby leave the following items to the following people:

To Bellatrix Lestrange I disown you from the Black Family also I dissolve your marriage. I leave you one knut.

To Narcissa Malfoy I hereby dissolve your marriage to Lucius Malfoy I am making you and Draco Black's now. Be free my darling Cissy. I leave you and Draco 1,000,000 galleons each to start your new life.

To R.J. Lupin

MOONY! I'm soo sorry I died. I love you more then anything. Please watch over our cub. I leave you 300,000,000 galleons and Black Manor in Wales. I will watch over you always my love. By the way I will wait for you with Lily, Jane and James. Live life and be happy. I love you and know that Jane will never be hurt that you noved on. FIND MIONE YOUR DAUGHTER NEEDS YOU. I think its Hermione Granger.

To Hermione Granger I leave you 250,000,000 galleons thank you for being Harry's friend. I love you as if you were my own little princess. I also leave you the cottage in Hogsmeade. I also make Lady Black as I hope you will one day make the Black name not so dark.

To Fred and George Weasley I leave you with 20,000,000 galleons to be paid in knuts. You two are the second generation of the Marauders you earned my respect the moment I met you. Also I hope that you sneak into Hogwarts regularly to prank people.

Now to my Godson Harry James I leave you with everything else. Also Harry as you know Moony and I were an item be good to him. We both love you very much and you are our cub. Wolves are very protective of the cubs. You will need to ask the goblins for help Harry then go to the fairies and the house elves and elves they can teach you their magic. Also train to become an animagus it will prove to help you. You will need to have your magic in bound and also train long and hard. It is up to you and Hermione to win the war. Stop holding back I know you are just as good as Miss. Granger if not better. You are now Lord H.J. Evans-Potter-Black those names alone will open doors for you. (I think Hermione has a crush on you by the way.) I love you cub be safe have a happy life.

Sirius Orion SOB Black-Potter.

I took the Lordship rings after confirming that I was Harry James Potter I put them on and they melded together to make a single ring however I could take off one at a time. I smiled knowing that Hermione may have a crush on me.

I said "Goblin Master will you be willing to teach me your magics?" Ragnok said "I would love to but first we have to fix your magic. You have your powers bound a lot of it is bound but yet you are still powerful. We will start tomorrow right now you may go to lunch as I will need time to set up the room for your magics to be unbound. See you in two hours Lord Evans-Potter-Black. Also Fred and George will be meeting you and Fortuna's Diner for lunch to discuss the property." I smiled and stood up then bowed low and said "Thank you for your time Goblin Leader. I will return to your audience in two hours." I then left and visited my trust vault I grabbed enough money for lunch then went to Fortuna's Diner.
