Chapter One: Discovery's
Harry shuffled into the bank clutching a parchment in his hand. This was it the moment he would discover the truth. He couldn't believe this was true, but if it was…
Than that would mean Dumbledore has been lying to him. Keeping his head down he got into the line at Gringotts. Harry opened the piece of paper once more reading over the results. That his magic core was blocked, by Dumbledore.
Finally arriving at the teller he said, "I heard that I can get a test that would show if blocks have been placed is this true?"
The goblin nodded, "Yes for a price."
"Can I do that than?"
"Hand over your key and well complete the transaction." The Goblin stated looking bored as it held out a gnarled hand. Harry handed over the key.
"Follow me." The goblin said changing his sign to closed and walking off. Harry followed after the creature as it walked down many twists and turns before stopping in a large room with many different things in it.
The goblin sat there looking through many different Papers. Eventually he looked over the papers, "You haven't done your C.O.A.R tests?"
"C.O.A.R?" Harry repeated.
"Yes you should have received notification of them when your first came into the bank."
Harry shook his head, "No I never heard of it."
"This is a bit of a problem, First we will have to do your Coming Of the Ages Rituals."
"What is that?"
"The C.O.A.R ritual happen at Age 11 Age 13 age 15 and age 17 each age holds a bit different ritual since you have yet to do the first two we shall do those then once you are of fifteen years come and do the third ritual"
"The first test is a simple Line and Ability test." The goblin stated pulling out a parchment and a wicked looking dagger. "Prick each of your fingers. Hold your hand straight up until the blood has trailed down your finger then place your hand on the parchment."
With a wince he cut each of his fingers ignoring the physical pain, and shoving the memories of that night out of his mind as he felt the blood trail down. A few seconds later it was time for him to put his hand on the parchment. Doing so he watched as the parchment started glowing strange runes and symbols appearing lifting off the paper and then going back down. The paper rolled up and a seal appeared on it.
"Go ahead and read it." The goblin gestured to the parchment. Harry grabbed it and opened the parchment.

"I can't believe it's true… Dumbledore truly has blocked my core."
The goblin frowned, "This isn't your magic core these are just your bloodline abilities. Before we move on any questions?"
"Yes how do I have the Grindelwald bloodline?"
"I don't know."
"What is the dimension Jumper ability?"
"It is a very rare bloodline trait that last popped up in Grindelwald. It allows you to jump between dimensions and gain new parents and abilities. It was said that Merlin and Morgana Le Fay had the ability to dimension jump."
"Weird."
"Very is that all?" The goblin asked.
"No, I thought my mom was muggleborn if she was than how can she have a bloodline ability?"
"She must have been born with a new ability or gifted one from magic."
"Alright thats all I think."
"Good than let us address the issue of your core. You said that you had suspicions there were blocks placed on it?"
Harry nodded.
"How did you come across this information?"
"Well after the end of the tournament I wanted some time alone and I found a book in the library, The Inner Workings of Magic, and it had the spell in it. The response was that I had a block on my core placed by Albus Dumbledore."
The goblin gave a nod, "Here place a drop of blood on this paper and then push your magic into it."
Doing as the goblin instructed he placed a drop of blood and watched as the paper light up and writing appeared before it stopped glowing.

"I see, before we can continue with you C.O.A.R we will need to remove the blocks. I can guarantee you that this will be painful. Follow me." The goblin got up and walked through the door and went across the hall.
"That's convenient."
"It is how Gringotts is designed." The goblin replied. "Lay down inside the ritual circle."
Harry layed down inside of the runic circle where many strange symbols were on the ground. The goblin started speaking in its native tongue.
Pain filled him starting as a slow burn on the outside and slowly crawling inwards leaving nothing untouched as it burned hotter and hotter before it centered itself next to his heart. In a sudden moment the heat turned ice cold and exploded outwards.
Power flowed through his veins like never before. "Come we will now do C.O.A.R Thirteen." The goblin spoke as it walked out of the room. Harry got up and stumbled a moment before going across the hall to the original room.
"C.O.A.R Thirteen is easier though riskier, at age thirteen you are supposed to get your heir rings" Harry nodded and Ripfang left, half an hour later he returned carrying a stack of boxes.
"These are the lines that you can be heir too. To begin you will place the ring on your finger if it accepts you as heir than it will allow you a bit of access to the house magic, if the ring doesn't accept you as heir to the house than you will experience a brief moment of pain. The first ring is the Grindelwald heir ring which goes on your left hand middle finger."
A brief tingle of warm magic and no pain and the ring accepted him next he was directed to place the gryffindor on his index finger then Black on his Ring Slytherin on his pinky then it was his right hand which was middle finger Potter index Ravenclaw followed by Gnaut on his ring finger and finally Evans on his pinky.
"To hide the rings like most do unless they need them just wish for them to hide." Harry nodded and the rings disappeared from sight, "Now you are caught up with the C.O.A.R tests. Make sure to come after your fifteenth birthday."
Harry nodded, "...Do my parents have wills? And if so where can I go to see them?"
The goblin gave a shark like grin, "I thought you would never ask, Follow me Heir Grindelwald Gryffindor Black Slytherin Potter Ravenclaw Gnaut Evans"
Harry blinked, "That's a long title anyway to shorten it down?"
The gobin nodded, "Yes Heir Grindelwald. You might want to find a tutor on pureblood customs. Give me some time to get the wills. I think you might find it in your best interest to get yourself an untraceable wand, there is a good shop in Knockturn alley. I should be done by the time you get one. I will have a goblin come find you when I am done."
Harry nodded and exited out of the bank. Deciding that it would be best to follow the goblins advice he cautiously looked around and seeing no one that recognized him he entered the dark looking alley. Walking along it he tried to keep his head down while looking for the wand shop.
Finally he found the place and entered. "Well look what we have here? Are you lost little boy-who-lived?" A voice smooth called out. Harry looked up to see a man with long black hair and heavily tanned skin who had orange eyes that looked like they were going to gobble him up. He looked like he had just won a prize.
"If this is the wand shop then no." Harry replied with a gulp edging away.
The man seemed to glide over the floor as he circled him, "You have no reason to fear me little heir. You are here for an untraceable wand than… very well. Follow me." The Wand Maker said drifting off to the back of the store.
"I only do custom wands, cut your wand hand index finger thand do a circle and cut it however feels right to you while saying 'invenio silvam inveneris core' Do you understand?"
Harry nodded and took the knife and cut his right index finger. He drew the circle in the air which glowed with white light and then he cut the circle with an x while saying the spell. The symbol glowed brightly changing between multiple colors before stopping on a red color and multiple lines shot out of it.
The wand maker grabbed the items the light surrounded. "Your new wand will be a mixture of heatherwood and dementor bone with a core of Phoenix tears. This wand symbolizes healing from within, immortality and rebirth, death, and rites of passage. It is time for the crafting process. Follow." The wand maker explained before walking away.
Harry followed the man into a room that was rather blank though it had a pedestal in the center of it. "Place your hands on the pedestal and channel a steady stream of magic into it." the wand maker commanded as he placed the dementor bone and heather wood into the basin and started grinding them with a spell.
Harry channeled his magic into the basin as the wand maker commanded and watched as after a few minutes the powder started floating and circling around lazily the wand maker grabbed the vial of phoenix tears and dripped it down three drops that floated in the air in a horizontal line in the middle of the circle.
The drops elongated into a thin line and the purplish grey powder started to surround the drops twisting and shaping and solidifying into a wand, "Fourteen inches Solid. This wand should be quite good at both offensive and defensive magics. Here is your wand and a holster."
"Thanks." he said as he grabbed the two items and attached them to his forearm.
"I'm just doing my job little Grindelwald."
Harry paused, "Why did you call me that?" he asked focusing on the wand maker. The man gave a fanged grinned, "The answers you seek lie in the final words of your mom. The wand is free, and you will understand why soon enough."
With that the man disappeared from sight. Harry exited out frowning what was with this whole Grindelwald business what did he have to do with the dark lord that was in prison?
"Potter?!" A familiar voice said in shock. Harry looked up to see Malfoy the younger standing in front of him.
"Malfoy." He responded aware that he had been recognized an alley reputed as dark.
"I didn't expect to see the golden boy in a place like this" Malfoy sneered.
Harry shrugged not feeling like responding.
Malfoy eyed him, "What are you doing here?" He demanded.
"Shopping." Harry replied.
More people were starting to gather around whispering to each other. Malfoy glared at them. "Go away! Back off with you!" He said waving a hand with a ring visible on the middle finger.
Most of the crowd dispersed but a couple of them stayed, one a man in fancy robes sneered, "You have no influence over me little Malfoy." the man said in a german accent. "If I want to ask why the boy-who-lived is here than I will."
Once again the wand maker appeared, "I think that it is in your best interest if you leave the little ones alone." the wand maker stated.
"Oh and why should I Hohlwelle?"
"Because I'm telling you to." The wand maker said a wand appearing in his hands.
"You must know the old days are over, I don't have to listen to you anymore." The german man stated before he started speaking in german.
Malfoy was watching, "Do you know what their talking about Potter?"
Harry shook his head, "No I was kinda hoping you did."
"I got nothing I'm fluent in french and english not german." Malfoy replied.
A goblin came up to him and after eyeing everyone simply stated, "Gringotts is ready." Harry nodded and followed after the goblin.
"Potter don't think I'm not going to question you further." Malfoy stated before Harry got out of earshot.
After being led back into the building he was brought to the room from earlier where the same goblin was sitting. "We have the wills of James Potter and Lily Potter nee Evans."
Harry nodded. "I'm ready to see them now."
