Chapter 1
The sun is bright and the sun is hot. Everyone was inside trying to stay out of the heat except one lone young man whom was out weeding his Aunts garden. Harry is sweating and had a bad sunburn on his back.
Harry could believe that he was forced to come back here even after he begged to not be sent back. He was even more furious that Dumbledore wrote to his guardians about Sirius's death. His gaurdians and Dudly were even more worse then before because they no longer had to worry about an escaped mass murderer after them. Vernon was even more mean after Remus and the others threatened them.
For the last couple of days Harry was becoming more and more depressed. Harry was finding it hard to cope. Ron and Hermione hadn't written him since he got to the Dursley's. Dumbledore had stopped his subscription to the Daily Profit, so now he had no way of knowing what was going on in the wizarding world.
Malfoy Manor
Remus is sitting with Severus and Lucius. The three of them had been friends secretly since third year of Hogwarts. Lilly had been friends secretly as well. The three men had begun talking more for the last six years.
Only Lilly and Remus knew that Severus and Lucius were spy's. They spyed for their side which is the third option for the war. They had a lot of people that were on their side. Remus hoped that when he goes to see Harry, he could convince him to fight with them.
Sirius and Remus had been talking for the last year about the possibility of taking Harry to Gringotts and getting an audit of his accounts if anything were to go wrong and either of them died. Sirius and Remus were worried that Dumbledore could do something to either or both of them so that he could get control of Harry more. Sirius even worried that the some or all of the Weasley's could be paid to befriend Harry.
"I want to take Harry to Gringotts. After I can try and convince him to come here." Remus looked at Severus and Lucius. Remus thought that this place might be a good idea to bring him here because no one would think to look for Harry here. This place was good for a vacation from all the trouble as well because Harry could go horse back riding and possibly make friends with Draco. Draco didn't really want to be mean to Harry but because he had to show a fake front he had to.
"That may work. Just hope he's ready to hear what you have to say about Dumbledore, Remus." Lucius lifted his glass of firewisky to his lips. Remus nodded his head. He hoped so as well.
Severus looked at the both of them and nodded his head as well. He had to be mean to Harry because he had to protect him from Dumbledore. He actually would like to get to know Lilly's son better because she was his friend. Even though Severus hated James he never would transfer that hate to an innocent child. Severus though still blamed himself for getting her killed. He wanted so much to change the past, but because he couldn't he mad a vow to himself that he would do anything to protect her child. He would even die to protect him.
Remus looked at the other two and nodded his head as to let them know he was heading out. He got up and adjusted his cloak on his shoulders. Remus then headed out of the Malfoy manor and headed to Harry's relatives.
Upstairs Draco who had listened in on the conversation made his own vow that he would make up for all the mean things to Harry. He hoped that He could start a new friendship with him and maybe help him make new friends in the Slytherin house.
Not to many people know that most if not all Slytherin house didn't really want to be Death Eaters. They just didn't have anyone to majorly look to for help. Yes a lot of them wanted to fight on the third side but what could they do is there parents where Death Eaters. Maybe now though they would have an actual fighting chance.
Little Winging, Surrey.
Harry is finally able to finish his weeding. He was able to sneak into the upstairs bathroom and put cold cloth on his face and neck for a few minutes. He knew he had to hurry because he had to make dinner for the Durley's and guests. He had to start early and then he would be locked into his room for the rest of the night. He even knew that he would get to eat anything that he made because Petunia didn't think he did the weeding fast enough.
Just then, as Harry started down the stairs, there was a knock at the door. Harry rushed down the rest of the stairs and answered the door as Dudley almost got to it. Harry smiled as he opened the door and saw Remus standing there. Harry hugged Remus and was just able not to flinch and make his sunburn know to Remus.
"Remus, What are doing here?" Harry asked even though he was very happy to see him.
"Mom, one of those freaks from the train station is here," Dudley yelled as he scampered as fast as his whale like body would let him. Petunia walked into the white colored hall and saw who was at the door.
"What do you freaks want? Potter is supposed to be starting dinner." Petunia shrieked as she came up behind Harry. Remus bristled with annoyance. He hated the way the muggles treated Harry.
"I am here to take Harry for the rest of the summer," Remus growled. He didn't care what he had to do but he would do anything he could to convince the young man to come.
"WHAT? Your Headmaster said Potter was to stay here this summer!" Petunia knew she would be in deep trouble if Harry didn't stay, but she also didn't like him and didn't want anymore freaks coming around her house.
Harry smiled as he would love to get away from theses people. He was tired of being treated like a house elf and having to do all the chores. Plus he was starting to get a weird feeling of danger everytime Vernon would look at him. He didn't like that feeling at all.
"I don't care, He's coming with me." Remus stared into Petunia's face. "Harry get your stuff. I'll shrink it for you and don't forget to tell Hedwig to come find us later." Harry nodded his head and ran up the stairs. He had to be careful though so Remus would find out about his back being sunburn until later.
Harry came down a few minutes later. He had Hedwigs empty cage and was dragging his trunk. Remus brought out his wand and shrank Harry's trunk and cage and then put it in his pocket.
"Come Harry we should be going," Remus gestured for him to fallow. They left Petunia scowling with anger at the door as they walked towards an abandoned ally. Remus put his hand around Harry's shoulder, not noticing him flinch, and apperated them to another empty ally across from the leaky cauldron. Remus then picked a rock and transfigured it into a black baseball hat. He then placed the hat on Harry's head.
"It's to make sure no one notices your hair. Also here," Remus removed a key from his pocket "I lifted this off Molly with out her knowing," Harry noticed that the key was his key that Molly hadn't yet returned to him.
"Why are going to Gringotts Remus?" Harry asked as the two of them started to cross the street to enter the Leaky Cauldron.
"Sirius asked that, if anything were to happen to either him or I, we would make sure to take you to Gringotts and ask for a statement of all your vaults." Remus stopped and looked into Harry eyes. He quickly though stepped back when he noticed the anger in Harry face.
"Dumbledore only told me of one vault. What do you mean when you said vaults." Harry hoped that it was just nothing, but he was getting a weird feeling that something funny was going on.
"Harry, The Potters are very old. There are lots more then one vault. There's even a vault for all the unused furniture that non of your family uses." Remus was startled because he knew that there were more then three vaults. Not only had he been told of the vaults that were named in the Potter will because of James. He had in fact seen at least two of them. Now he knew his and Sirius's gut feelings were validated, he knew that they had to act face.
Remus led Harry through the Leaky Cauldron, through the brick arch and into Gringotts. Both of them walked up to one of the goblin tellers and waited to be noticed. Remus during Harry's third year told him that it was polite to do this if you ever come to the bank and need to talk to a goblin.
Harry made sure that he had his key ready. Remus smiled as he knew that just maybe everything would work out, and they wouldn't have to worry about to much that day. He wanted to get back to the Malfoy's fast because he didn't know how long it would take for Dumbledore to know that Harry wasn't at the Dursley's anymore.
"How can I help you?" The Goblin leaned his face closer to the two men in front of him. It didn't take much for the Goblin to know who was in front of him because of a charm that would tell each teller about who was really in front of them do to the charm reading the magical signatures.
"We would like to see both the back manager and the manager in charge of the Potter accounts," Remus stated in a clear and polite manner. The goblin looked him in the eye and nodded his head.
"Griphook will take you immediately," The Goblin (Shanktooth) stated as he signaled the other said goblin over. In Gobeldygook Shanktooth told Griphook to escort Remus and Harry to Ragnocks office. A few minutes later Griphook opened the door as they arrived into the head managers office.
An aging Goblin sat behind a desk, wearing a very sharp grey suit. Another goblin, wearing a grew suit as well, stood to Ragnocks left. Harry took his hat off as he and Remus sat down in front of the desk.
"How may we help you?" The scratchy voice of Ragnock asked as he stared at the two humans in front of his desk.
"We would like a full audit of Harry Potter's vaults?" Remus asked as he noticed the Potter's manager frown. Remus wondered and worried what that was all about.
"Mr. Potters magical Guardian has stated he is to have only access to his school vault until his eighteenth birthday," KrispKeep stated as he looked at Harry.
"WHAT. James wrote in his will that Harry was to be told of his vaults as of his eleventh birthday. James told me himself." Remus was furious. What the hell was Dumbledore doing.
"What Will. I wasn't told about this," Harry had a shocked and angry look on his face. He was lied to. How dare Dumbledore do this to him.
"James and Lilly stated that the Will was to be read to Harry when he turned eleven. Your telling us that you followed Dumbledore's wished instead of the Potter's?" Remus couldn't believe that they would go against a parents Will.
"KrispKeep. Bring me the Will." Ragnock hoped that this was just a miss understanding. He hated Dumbldore but this was going to far. KrispKeep nervously searched through his papers.
"I was given a note from Dumbledore that I was told was written by Mr. James Potter," KrispKeep said as he handed the Will and the note stating that Dumbledore was to have full control over all the Potter Vaults. Ragnock scanned the note and found it to be a forgery. He then called a couple of his guards into the room.
"Take this piece of trash to the holding cell and hold him there until this investigation is concluded," Ragnock stated as he pointed to KrispKeep. The guards took a shouting gobling with them. Ragnock then went back to reading the Will that the Potters had written.
Harry shifted nervously and flinched as his back came into contact with the back of the chair. Remus this time did notice Harry flinch but decided to keep quite until he could get them back to Malfoy manor.
"I have a letter that Mr. Potter here needs to read and then I will read the will out loud because you too Mr. Lupin are included in the Will." Ragnock handed a letter, that looked to have been opened all ready, to Harry. Harry looked at the note and went pale and gasped.
"Harry;
My sweet little one. I'm so sorry if you are reading this note because that would mean your father and I are dead. I hope to god that you never have to read this but if you are then I hope that Remus and Sirius are there with you because this would be a great big shock. If we are dead that means that one person had betrayed us. That person was our secret keeper Peter Pettigrew.
When I found out that I was pregnant Professor Dumbledore came to me and Alice Longbottom and the rest of the order of the pheonex and told us of a prophecy that was just made. The prophecy stated that a child born as the seventh month dies would be the one who would defeat the Dark Lord Voldemort. I was so worried about it because I had a feeling that it might be you.
Not to many people knew that James, Remus, Sirius and I didn't trust the Headmaster. Even Peter didn't know. When you were born Sirius, James and I were shocked. You weren't a boy like you were supposed to be. You were born a girl. We had to hide the fact and put a glamor on you. Sirius even added his blood to you so that you would also be his heir. We then obliviated Sirius of the secret of you being a girl. The glamor will fade
on your sixteenth birthday. I especially didn't want Dumbledore to know because we knew that he could try something like either marry you off to an ally of his or even force you to marry him just so that he could get control over the entire estate of the Potters. Your father and I left a diary with all the information that you will ever need inside the Potter main vault that only your blood will open.
I love you baby with all my heart.
Love
Lilly Marie Potter.
P:S Your actual name is Alexiona Saphira Tatiana Potter."
Harry couldn't believe this. He was a girl. He handed the letter to a worried Remus and put his hands on his face and started to cry. He couldn't believe that this was kept from him his entire life. How was he going to be able to live as a girl.
Remus read the letter and gasped then quickly looked over at Harry.
"This does not change how I feel about you. Those that love and care about you will still love and care about you." Remus pulled Harry's hands away from his face. He then smiled at Harry. Harry nodded his head. He would completely break down later when he was alone. Remus then nodded to Ragnock to let him know that they were ready to hear the rest of the Will. Ragnock was impressed that Harry was able to handle this so well. No many people would still be as together at the moment like this young one in front of him.
"I will read off the Will and then tell you what has been happening that shouldn't have been." Ragnock then started the reading of the Will that should have been carried out a long time ago.
"This is the last Will and Testament of Lord James Corinthius Alexander Potter and Lady Lillian Marie Potter nee Evens.
This war has taken it's tole on a lot of family's creature and human for many years now, We hope by the time that this Will is read, the war may finally be at an end. If not then may all those that have lived be able to fight for those that they love and care for… Lilly Potter.
To Remus John Lupin: Dear Remy whom is and always will be a brother and a maurader. We hope that one day there will come a day when all the magic world can except you for whom you are and be able to look past that which only inflicts you once a month. If not it would be there loss. To you whom is a valued and true friend we leave the Seaside Cottage near Huntington cross and 10, 000 galleons plus a stipend that will pay for the Wolfsbane each month.
To Sirius Orion Black: You whom have been a brother and another maurader. We leave you as Harry's gaurdien and in the knowledge that although you are a member of one dark family your also a member of loving light family. We leave you 10, 000 galleons and the hope that you won't corrupt Harry to much. ( Harry and Remus laughed a little with tears in there eyes as they heard this.)
To Alice and Frank Longbottom: Hope never falters when you have love on your side. We leave 10, 000 galleons and the hope that both Harry and Neville may grow up the closest of friends.
To Harry: Our only child and the light of our lives. We leave you with all the love in our hearts. We also leave you with everything that is and was our family's. Also we hope that one day you will have everything that your hearts desire.
To Severus Tiberious Snape: I James Potter leave my heart felt apology that I bullied and harassed you in and out of Hogwarts. I see now that I was wrong. I James and Lilly Potter leave 10, 000 galleons and a heartfelt wish for all the wonderful things for you.
We, James and Lilly Potter state the names of the people that we would like Harry to go to if anything were to happen to us.
Sirius Orion Black (Godfather)
Alice Longbottom (Godmother)
Remus Lupin (Stated in the law that a Werewolf can be a guardian if stated in a Will)
Amelia Bones
Minerva McGonegall
Severus Snape(Yes I James agree. He would make a good guardian.)
Under no circumstances is Harry to be anywhere Petunia and her family."
Harry smiled but also was angry. The Headmaster completely disregarded the Will.
"Has the Headmaster seen this at all," Harry asked as he pointed at the Will. He hoped not because then that would mean that Dumbledore had lied and committed a crime.
"He has witnessed this will and it states here that he did read the letter," Ragnock said as he looked at an angry werewolf.
"Your telling me he knows that I am actually a girl and that my parents stated all that," Harry shouted as he cried a little. It felt like his whole world was coming crashing down around him.
Just then Remus decided to make a quick floo call. He turned and asked Ragnock and was given permission to floo call Severus at Malfoy manor. He knew that anymore surprises and Harry migh just loose it.
Remus rushed forward and floo called to the manor praying that he would catch Severus.
Malfoy manor.
"Do you think that Remus will be able to convince Harry to come here Severus?" Lucius asked after Remus left to get Harry.
"I hope so. I know that Remus truly care for Harry." Severus got up and walked to the bar near the large open fireplace. He knew that he was going to need another drink. He had a weird feeling that something was going to happen. He hoped that everything would go all right for his friend.
"Dad. Is Harry really going to come." Draco walked into the study. He knew that his dad had known that he was just at the top of the stairs listening in on the conversation.
"I hope so Draco," Lucius stated as he watched his son sit down across from him.
"He might just need time to get used to all this as well, so don't pressure him Draco," Severus said as looked down at his godson.
As they were discussing a few other things the fire slashed and Remus's head popped into view.
"Severus, I need you to come to Gringotts. Bring a couple of calming potions. It's worse then we thought. Remus was really worried. Severus and Lucius both jumped up.
"We'll be there immediately," Lucius stated as Severus went and got some emergency potions he kept at the manor. Remus nodded his head and ended the call. Severus and Lucius then rushed over via the floo straight into Gringotts.
At Gringotts.
Lucius and Severus flooed straight into the private floo network that was there for the purblood family's. They right away spotted Remus. He ushered them into the room where Harry was hyper ventilating and was having wind wrapping around him. Severus rushed forward and pushed a calming drought down his throat.
After a few minutes Harry started calming down, until he noticed Snape and Malfoy standing near him.
"Now Harry wait. I will explain everything. Lets just get everything sorted and then I will take you somewhere and explain." Remus sent a pleading look to him. Harry decided to trust Remus. Harry's parents even stated that they trusted Snape.
Lucius and Severus sat down beside Remus and let Ragnock continue. Ragnock hadn't even had a problem because he knew Harry had a right to be upset. Ragnock then started reading the list of people other than Harry that had been into the Potter vaults.
ALBUS DUMBLEDORE November 1st 1981 to present: 125,000,000
CORNELIUS FUDGE January 1st 1982 to present: 500,000,000

Harry was heart broken. How could they do this. He couldn't believe this. What next? Voldemort's grandfather. Harry thought with a shudder.
"Harry I would recommend talking to Madame Bones. She is Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement." Remus knew that Dumbledore could weasel his way out but the others shouldn't be able to. Harry decided to go with what Remus suggested.
Ragnock handed all the papers over to Remus because he knew the mad would be able to help Harry. Remus looked at the papers and noticed that Dumbledore had also taken jewelery and other artifacts from the Potter Vaults.
After a few minutes Lucius, Severus and Remus decided to take Harry to Malfoy Manor. Harry was close to passing out. He couldn't take much more. As they were leaving Ragnock's office, they noticed some order member's around. Remus made sure to shield Harry from view so he wouldn't be noticed. All four of them got to the floo and flooed to Malfoy Manor.
As soon as they got there Harry gave up trying to stay conscious and passed out. Lucky for Harry that Remus was able to catch him. Remus then carried Harry up to a room that Lucius had made for him. When Harry was laid down Remus decided to take Harry's shirt off. As soon as Remus took Harry's shirt off he gasped. Harry had what looked like a bad blistering sun burn from front to back. He also had cuts and bruise's along his arms and back.
Severus pushed Remus gently to the side and went to work healing Harry. He made sure to slip a dreamless sleep potion down his throat as well. After they were done Severus transfigured Harry's clothes into pajamas. Remus tucked Harry in and all three adults left so he could sleep. Remus then quickly gave them the gist of what happened and they all agreed to sleep on it for the night. They knew that the next few days would be very tuff and busy on Harry and they wanted to make sure that they were there for him.
On his way to bed Lucius also remembered to let Draco know that Harry was there and that he needed to be left alone for a while. Draco agreed and said that he would wait until Lucius gave the ok to go see Harry.
