Vernon Dursley was not a happy man he hated the fact that the freak had to live with them at all but now he had found out that the freaks godfather was a murderer well he did not like that at all but he couldn't do anything to the freak that was to risky but he had to do something the question was what. So Vernon had been thinking and now he had a plan he'd been thinking on what to do since he picked the freak up from the station and now it was all arranged it had only taken a week and today was the day they put the plan into action. They had told the freak to be out of the all day as they were having guest and under no circumstances to be home before 7p.m. As soon as Harry was out the door that morning they began packing Vernon had booked a holiday for Petunia, Dudley and himself for the rest of the summer they would not return until the day before Dudley was due back at Smelting s

When Harry returned that evening it was quite clear that nobody was home however that didn't worry Harry it was a regular occurrence they would go out and leave him to look after himself if he was lucky they would have left the back door unlocked so he could at least get in the house if not he'd just have to wait until they returned, most people would have a house key so they could get in at times like these buy not Harry he was to much of a freak to be allowed anything like that. So Harry made his way to the back door hoping that it would be unlocked where he just stopped there just in-front of the back door was his trunk and Hedwigs cage. When he went over to investigate he noticed a note taped to his trunk so he pulled it off and read.

Boy,

We have left on holiday for the rest of the summer by the time we return YOU WILL BE GONE you are no longer welcome in this house. All your things are in your trunk we made sure you have nothing left to return for DO NOT RETURN you are no longer welcome in this house it is no longer your home.

Good Riddance

Vernon Dursley.

Now many would think what was written in the letter would be enough to bring the blood wards surrounding number 4 privet drive crashing down thus bringing a certain Headmaster there to see what the problem was and these people would be right except for one small detail that many had overlooked, Harry Potter had not thought of number 4 privet drive his home for a very long time and even before he stooped thinking of it as his home there was so little love in the house between Harry and his relatives that the wards were so weak when this final break came there was little more than a squeak from the device monitoring them that the Headmaster didn't even notice. So now Harry stood outside the back door shocked and as the note fell from his hands all he could think was 'what the hell am I going to do now?' This was it they had finally kicked him out and he wasn't sure how he felt about that sure he'd always hated living there but where else did he have to go. Lucky for Harry he wasn't the type to panic in any situation he'd been through to much for that so he sat down to think, first he'd need somewhere to sleep well he could go to the leaky cauldron for that after all he'd done it last year, how to get there again that was easy same way as last year call the knight bus but how to do all this without being recognised after all he didn't want the minister of Magic showing up again. First he'd need to cover his scar and then maybe take off his glasses okay he couldn't see well without then but he should be okay just getting on the knight bus and into the leaky cauldron without them. So with a plan in mind he opened his trunk took out his money bag and wand and made his way to the leaky cauldron, when he arrived it was fairly empty so he made his way straight to the bar and booked a room for the night. As he followed Tom to his room he asked for some dinner to be sent up and the same for breakfast the next morning, As he was sat eating his dinner he started to think first about everything that had happened going back over it in his head made him realise a few things first was that Vernon must have been planing this at least from the time he picked Harry up from the station otherwise why would he have locked up all of Harry's things as soon as he came through the door an told him to 'and send that bloody bird off to one of your freak friends or have it locked up with the rest of your freaky things' even with the threat of Sirius hanging over them, this of course lead him to his second realise that it must have been the threat of Sirius that had pushed them over the edge of course that meant they couldn't hurt him but kicking him out yes all they had to say was they kept him until he had somewhere else to go, now he had his godfather he could bugger off and live with him. Third he would have to sort his own life out so he started to think of things he'd need to do well his main priority would be money he knew he had a fair amount but would it be enough to keep him in school and pay for somewhere to live during the summer or would he need to get a job to pay for that well that meant a trip to the bank was the first order of business and everything else would come after that, so with that small plan formed he decided to call it a night ready for a long day tomorrow.

Harry woke early the next morning to a knock on his room door from Tom he was there with Harry's breakfast and a copy of the Daily Prophet which he read through while he was eating his food there was nothing of real interest to Harry until he read the help wanted ads at the bottom corner of the page was a small advert that read.

Wanted, general assistant for summer project

no experience necessary, will train on the

job, perfect for Hogworts student or

recent graduate. Contact John Sharpe

That sounded like something he could do even if he didn't need the money it was always a good idea to keep busy and you never now he might always learn something, so he wrote a quick letter to Mr Sharpe telling him who he was how old he was what work he done before I.e. everything he'd done at his aunt and uncles house and that he was very interested in the job. That done he headed off down the ally to send of the letter and visit the bank, it was still early when he got to the bank so there weren't many customers and he was able to walk straight up to a teller where he asked to see someone about his account. After about 5 minuets another goblin came back with the first and lead Harry to a small office.

"Please have a seat Mr Potter my name Smashjaw how can Gringotts be of services"

" well I'd like to know the state of my accounts as I've recently left home and I need to know if I need to get a job to support myself during the summer"

" very well Mr Potter if you'll just give me a moment to gather your files"

Smashjaw left the office and returned about 10 minuets later with a large stack of files two large boxes and one small one, Smashjaw put the the two large boxes on the floor and the files and small box on his desk then spoke.

" well Mr Potter we have a small bit of business to get through today which seems to have been overlooked on your previous visits, Firstly is your parents wills which are quite simple everything has been left to you to be held in trust here at Gringotts until your 17th birthday with the exception of your trust vault, the contents of these two boxes and the Potter family ring"

He then opens the small box on his desk and hands it to Harry. Harry takes the ring out and places it on his finger the ring gives out a faint blue glow and resizes itself to fit on his finger.

"The ring is charmed so that only you can remove it and to return to Gringotts if stolen, there is also a note that upon receiving the Potter family ring that you be given a full medical with all treatments to be paid for from the Potter family vault to ensure you are in the best of health if you like I can have the healers at Gringotts perform that after this meeting"

"yes please"

"now your accounts first the Potter family vault which contains 1,758,644 galleons, 12 sickles and 3 knuts total it also include various uncatalogued items along with the contents of the vault there is also deeds for 3 pieces of land 2 of which have no property and a third which has been pronounced by the ministry as an area of historical value which means there is very little you can do with it and a selection of shares in various businesses whose profits go straight into the Potter vault, then finally your trust vault which has a total of 4,784 galleons 8 sickles and 7 knuts this account is topped up to 10,000 galleons every year to pay for schooling and other expenses. Your Hogworts school costs are currently 5,000 galleons per year."

" wow so I've got nearly 5,000 galleons to spend before my birthday which is in a month wow"

" yes Mr Potter, now if you would like to follow me I will take you to our medical area so we can perform your medical"

" er before we go is there any way I can pay for things without carrying all my money round with me you know like if I've got a lot to buy I don't want to have my money stolen before I get a chance to buy what I need"

" of course Mr Potter you will want a charmed money bag very easy to use just hold the bag and say the amount you require and it will appear in your money bag they are charmed so that only you can use just add a drop of blood to the inside of the bag and it's ready to use, I will have one sent to you while you are having your medical now if you will follow me"

So Harry followed Smashjaw from his office to the medical area where they met another goblin and witch Smashjaw told that he was here for a full medical and to treat anything that required attention and to do it as fast as possible and to spare no expense. So Harry was lead to a bed and told that everything would be done while he was asleep to make it easier for the healers to work and with that he was given a potion and promptly fell asleep.
