Here's the first chapter of my new story which is an idea which popped into my head earlier on. I have no idea as of yet where the story will go but I hope you enjoy it so far. Please read it and review as well, love Hermione xxx
"Vernon you know as well as I that Harry is a wizard like his parents were and has started to use accidental magic already. I know from what Dumbledore has told us spells have been used on the area so unfortunately he may never leave us. He told us we can get more money from Harry's account at this Gringotts bank whenever we want to. Also I know from Lily that because of the trace which their government puts on them he'll never be able to use a wand at home until he's seventeen. I don't want him in my house however I realise he doesn't actually need to be. Dumbledore said he couldn't leave this area and with what I've got planned he won't ever leave the area!" said Petunia with an evil grin on her face. Harry listened from inside his cupboard under the stairs in awe. He knew that stealing was wrong and it sounded as though they were going to steal from him.
"Petunia please tell me what you were thinking?" asked Vernon equally as evilly. "Well Vernon it would require a one time large spend of money which we could get back at another time. We would need to buy a mobile home for one thousand pounds to put in the garden and then pay a visit to the cash and carry to stock up on things like tinned goods, tea and wash products for Harry so we'd never have to even see him again. It would be perfect. He'd leave us alone and we could pretend he's not there at all!" she answered.
"That would be perfect. I'd say two thousand Six hundred pounds for the whole thing and them we can live a normal life and he can keep all of his freakish things out there with him away from us. Anyway Dumbledore can get us more of his money from the bank so essentially he'll be paying for it all himself and hey we can take a nice holiday with the money we get from him. It will be a win/win situation for us all. It means we can be the normal family we've always wanted to be and forget he exists until September. Anyway as it's a boarding school he'll not be here most of the time anyway. Let's go to sleep now and our work will begin in the morning. By tomorrow night it'll all be sorted out I promise pumpkin now let's go!" he said as they left going upstairs. Harry thought about how to stop them stealing his money as he didn't want them to and suddenly he was no longer in the cupboard under the stairs but in the foyer of the bank. A goblin came over to the young boy angry. "What is the meaning of you popping in here at the hour?" he snapped making Harry jump.
"Please sir don't hurt me. My name is Harry James Potter and I wanted to come here to protect my money as my aunt and uncle said they were going to try stealing it from me. I didn't even know I had a bank account and I don't even know how I got here as I just wished to protect my money and suddenly I was here. They said earlier that someone called Dumbledore could get them more of my money if they asked him for it. I don't know who that is but I do know that stealing is wrong. Oh god I'll be beaten so bad if they find out I'm gone without their permission. I heard them say I was wizard but that they wouldn't tell me until I was old enough to understand. They also said I can't use my wand in their home until I'm seventeen so they can do what they want to me!" said Harry crying and shocking the goblin to the core.
"Come with me. I do not wish to harm you but you have much to learn. Now I need you to write your name on this bit of paper here. This is a blood quill and will take out some of your blood as you write. This will tell us who you are!" he instructed as Harry did as asked crying as the quill seared his skin. His arm was heeled then with a wave of the goblins hand. "You are indeed who you say you are. Please wait here as we need to have you medically checked out. It's standard procedure. Please stand still as I need to look in your head at your memories to see what you have been through before!" he said calling a healer and doing just that growling angrily.
"No child should have to go through what you have but we can sort out some protection for you in a moment. Now here is Healer Graham and she will read your health and you may be given potions to help heal your body!" he said as she appeared there. "Ok Harry I will wave my wand over your body to analyise your health condition. Don't worry it won't hurt you just tell me what's wrong with you!" she said doing just that. She frowned deeply.
"Ok Bogrod. He has various charms on him keeping his core at fifty percent and not to mention the horcrux he has in his scar. I'd suggest we remove the horcrux first as my scan told me we have one here that is connected to it so both will be destroyed when we destroy this one. He'll need to be in the chamber for a year however he doesn't have a year based on his memory. Harry we are going to use a special magical room to train you for a year. Outside the room in the real world only Six hours will have passed. You will be back at home at six in the morning and your relatives will never know you have gone. Come with me as we need to heal you and this first part will really hurt you but it needs to really hurt in order for you to get better!" she said as he agreed following the kind lady. He was only eight years old. He could be in the chamber for a year but would only grow height wise and not in age at all.
For once it seemed things were working out. A goblin was sent to the premises of number four privet Drive and using goblin magic ensured that everyone inside stayed asleep until nine am. He then left after scanning the premises for spells and enchantments on everything. He returned as Harry was being strapped via his legs and arms to a table. He was shocked as something cold was rubbed on his forehead and his scar was cut open. He didn't initially feel anything. He screamed his head off as a green substance was dropped into his scar with a medical dropper. He felt as though he was dying as a black substance fought its way out of his head. Just as it seemed he was going to die a white or clear coloured substance was dropped into his head using another medical dropper and he immediately felt better. He was told to sit still as the clear substance was poured all over his body. He felt his bones breaking one by one and then healing accurately. He had since grown two inches in height so now instead of looking as though he was four years old he looked like he was six. He still didn't look right for his age however his year in the time chamber would naturally correct that enabling him to grow normally from then on.
He was fed a disgusting tasting potion to correct any spells on him which shouldn't have been there removing them all. He felt wonderful and more alive then he'd ever done despite his sudden blindness. "Excuse me, I know you said it was meant to make me better but now I'm blind!" he said nervously.
"Remove your glasses Harry and you'll find you can now see without them!" she said smiling as he did so gasping. "I have viewed your memories and it is obvious we need to protect you but in order to do that we'll need to break the law. We need to now give you this potion which will prevent Dumbledore from using any spells on you he shouldn't. No one will be able to apply the trace on you again but we will make them think it is still on you magically. This way you can do magic at home untraced and never get caught for doing it. Now we will need to use a complex spell to make our wand maker in the alley believe he's already sold you your wand when the time comes. We'll be custom making you a wand that has no trace on it. Now while in the chamber you'll be taught various safety precautions for potion making as well as memorizing an entire set of books we give you and retaining the information. Also we'll be making you an animagus which means you can change into an animal and change back effortlessly. However we will magically place your name on the list from when you were a baby making it look as though your parents registered you then. No matter what anyone else tries to do they will never be able to erase this from their system. Let's go into this room to Sara who will make your new wand for you!" she said happily.
They went into the room where Sara was with three boxes on a table. He sat into a seat which rose up level to the table. "Hello Harry I'm Sara and I'll be giving you your untraceable wand. I've viewed your memories as you need protection so you will be given it in many forms. Now here we have three boxes in front of you. Please pull out the wood type you like from this box. It should call out to you" she said.
He did as asked and found that an ebony wood called out to him along with an elm wood. "Ok we'll combine these. Next place your hand into this box and pull out the core or cores which best suit you!" she further instructed. He did as asked pulling out unicorn hair and dragon heartstring.
"Right these will be the core of your wand and what makes it unique to you. Lastly place your hand into this box and pull out a gem of your choice. This will be placed on your wand however only you will see it. The gem will give your magical core a boost when it feels you most need it. It will refill itself immediately afterwards!" she said as he pulled out a sapphire stone. She placed all three together and shortly after wards he had his new wand. As his core had been permanently unblocked he cast a lumos as instructed and held it until it was bright enough for him to be able to see ok. He called it off then seeing as his core was now stabalised.
"Now Harry in our world we have people or elves which we call house elves. It is there job to to serve us getting us anything we may need from the shops, giving us meals, packing up things for us and changing the appearance of things for us and most anything else we should want them to. They can for safety reasons appear invisible if we need them to witness something but not be seen doing so. They get paid by connecting to our magic so they can become a family member. Please bring me the house elf merchant and tell him to bring one of his elves with him!" she said as the said man brought in a frightened looking elf. "This here is Dobby. Lucius Malfoy reserved him to buy him tomorrow however judging by the way he smacked it with his cane when he thought I was not looking I have decided young Harry here can have him instead. I have a very old and mean house elf who would be better suited to the likes of them. Here you go Dobby your new family!" he said happily as Dobby squealed in excitement.
Harry bent down and hugged the shocked elf. "Hello Mr Dobby it's wonderful to have a family member again. Can I please ask you why you wear this rag?" he said as Dobby cried. "Such kindness has never been shown to the likes of me before Mr Potter. I am so happy I will be working for your family now. I wear this as a sign of my servitude to your family sir!" he said while bowing lowly.
"Please if you don't mind is there a spell I can use to make Mr Dobby's robe clean and stay clean. If I am to have a house elf I'd rather he doesn't look so bad. I am sorry Mr Dobby but you don't look good enough yet and I want to have the best house elf in the world and looking like that you will never be the best!" he said enthusiastically as Dobby cried once again. "Please Mr Potter sir call me Dobby and yes you may perform the spell if you wish!" he said as Harry hugged him again.
"Everyone needs hugs to make themselves feel good. Please call me Harry and when outside this bank or the house you may call me sir as people might not like you calling me Harry outside. Please Sara perform the charm as I don't know it!" she did so Dobby's rob becoming cream and staying cream no matter what should happen to him. "Dobby I will be in training for a year to learn all about our world so I will have no need of your services for the next Six hours. I will call you when I need you. My aunt and uncle will be getting me a new home in the garden which I will need you to clean and take care of if you don't mind. I however don't want them to know you are doing this for me. I will be having the best of everything in this house but I don't want my relatives to know that so to them it must look whatever way it does when they give it to me. I'll see you soon please look after yourself!" he said hugging Dobby once more who swore to do all he could to protect Harry.
Harry was escorted into the chamber with Sara who was to be his teacher while he was in there. Inside this room there was various sections. One section had a bed, another section had a living and kitchen space, another section had a classroom combined with a potions station. The last section contained a battle section and an outdoor area. He entered and was fed a dreamless sleep potion and put to sleep along with Sara who took one and went to sleep herself. They woke up the next day Harry feeling more fresh then he ever had. He went to the stove and started to make breakfast when Sara shouted at him to stop. "What did I do wrong? Do you not like bacon and eggs?" he said nervously.
"Harry how long have you cooked for your relatives?" she asked in response to his question. "I have cooked for them since I was three years old on a chair in the kitchen. My aunt Petunia would place the cooker on for me and then I would make them all their breakfast, lunch or dinner. If I was extra good I even got some for myself although usually I didn't because uncle Vernon and cousin Dudley would eat seconds so all the food was gone. I usually got a thick slice of bread and a hunk of cheese with a glass of milk three times a day!" he said honestly shocking her.
"Harry no children should ever make the dinner as this is what we have house elves for. Dobby will do all of that for you in future. Your relatives didn't feed you properly either so Dobby will do that from now on ok? You'll never be hungry. You didn't know any better but from now on my house elf Tuney will do all the cooking and cleaning ok? She would be very upset if you tried to do it for her. It is her job and not yours. From now on every morning you will wake up and come here for breakfast which she will serve you!" she said hugging Harry who then cried.
"No one has ever hugged me before. I know everyone feels better when they are hugged but thank you for hugging me as it has made me very happy!" he said as she then cried. "I promise to always hug you here Harry!" she said as Tuney came out looking angry. "Master Harry Potter is not allowed to make breakfast or anything again. This is Tuneys job!" she scolded putting out the breakfast he'd made in a huff. "I am sorry Tuney I did not know this and you can make everything from now on ok?" he asked to which she responded that it was ok.
As they ate and finished he went over to the classroom where he was taught all about charms, warding and the safety of potions. Throughout his time there he learned all about transfiguring and flying. He learned all about dueling with a wand and indeed with a sword from Master Sharpclaw who was the most famous trainer. He'd had many injuries but each one was immediately cured and it was through these that he learned everything about safety. Now he no longer got hurt and defeated everyone he battled against. He was taught Legillimens and Occlumency which took longer then most of them had thought it would. Lastly he learned his animagus. He was a teal and purple coloured phoenix. It was eight o' clock in the morning when he emerged. He was given a brand new key for his vaults, his Potter family ring and a magical wallet that would give either him or Dobby money whenever they needed it. A block which had been placed on his mail had been unblocked and all of his mail was transferred to a vault in the bank where it was scanned for dark items which were then destroyed. The mail was then stored until Harry could read it. He had decided to have Dobby bring him twenty or so letters a day to read and respond to until they were all gone.
While in the room he'd been told why he was so famous and what had happened to his parents. He returned to his cupboard under the stairs feeling fully refreshed. At nine o clock Vernon woke up cursing that he was going to be late for work but decided to take a sick day to sort out Harry's accommodation. He went to the dealership and paid for the most basic mobile home they had. They most basic one they had did have two bedrooms but he didn't care less as long Harry was no longer in his house or life. He'd paid two hundred extra pounds to have it delivered and placed in the back of his garden which the company did. He then visited the cash and carry picking up a container which had twenty boxes of tea and jars of coffee in it. He got another container which contained twenty packets of washing up liquid, sponges, clothes, bleach and self cleaning products such as shower gel and shampoo. He got some biscuits to go with the tea laughing evilly as it had been Harry's money which paid for everything and so he had spent absolutely nothing on any of it. Harry was told to get out and take what little possessions he had with him out to the new home he'd be living in. He was told to never bother them for nothing ever again.
He pretended to look sad and went into the home. After making sure that everyone was gone. He asked Dobby to make sure that for this family his new home always looked they way they had left it for him and then added that for Dumbledore it should also look this way should he come snooping. Dobby did so and performed spells making them never want to go near the place ever again but made it undetectable so that if Dumbledore or someone else should come snooping they'd never know why the family didn't want anything to do with the home. He got brand new couches all over the interior in purple and teal to represent his animagus. He put in a brand new Diagon Alley bought kitchen and dining room set. The two bedrooms he painted teal in colour and he had a sapphire blue magically extended bathroom which would always have hot water for him but not take from their bills. In it he had a huge bath which could easily fit two people and a shower that was a two person one. All of this was done very carefully in two hours.
His magically extended fridge was filled to the brim with food by Dobby who made an amazing evening meal for them both. Harry had insisted that while living on his own Dobby eat with him at every meal. While at night Dobby was to sleep in the smaller spare bedroom which made the elf very happy indeed. He was very excited. This change in his life was to be a great one.
