Chapter 3
Waking up slowly, thinking over my escape from Privet Drive. I was wondering when the owl would arrive with Sirius's, Will. Sitting up slowly, as to not aggravate my sore body. The last bit of sleep fell away, leaving me deep in my thoughts. Anticipating that one of my properties, would be safe. Well at least safe enough, for the rest of summer. Reaching for the phone, laying on my bedside table. Putting a call into the front desk. I asked, for breakfast to be sent to my room. Slowly, making my way to the bathroom. After completing my morning duties, I scowled at my reflection. My mind tumbles with thoughts, of what brought me to this point in my life. Dumbledore, with his half truths is the reason I lost the last of my family. He does not realize, I see his manipulation. He's wrong to underestamate me in such a way. I see it all, very clearly. How he gives me, a little kindness at school. Then sends me back to Privet Drive. My scowl turns into a smirk. He believes, I will do everything he says. Believes, I will do it without question. He's wrong! I can't wait to see his face, when he finds out.
Turning from the mirror, making my way to the other room. I was startled out of my thoughts, by the sound of my door closing. "Oh good, my food is here." Sitting down, I tuck into my breakfast. Hearing a tapping sound, I look over at the window. A large barn owl is waiting for me, to let it in. Getting up I open the window. It swoops in, landing on the back of the chair.
"What do you have for me? Something good I hope." Taking the letter from his leg, I see the Gringots official seal. Giving the owl a piece of bacon from my plate, it took off out the window.
With shaking hands I broke the seal.
Mr. Potter
Enclosed is Mr. Sirius Black''s and Mr. James Potter''s Will''s and keys, to all properties in your name.
Gringots Estates Manger
Gathering all my Gryffindor courage to me I open the scrolls.
Rising from the bed, I look to see what Potter is up to. He was just sitting at the table eating his breakfast, I watched him get up and go to the window for an owl. 'I wonder what post he could have gotten.' Watching I notice his face paled, and his hands were shaking. I watched him feed the owl, and then he opened the scroll he received. Muttering to myself, I began to wonder why, he looks so shaken.
Will of Sirius Black
I leave all moneys and properties except:
47,478.00 pounds and one property, to Mr. Harry James Potter.
The property of 12 Grimauld and 47,478.00 pounds is left to Mr. Remus Lupin.
I bequeath the other two properties and remaining money to Harry James Potter, they being
(1) Black Mansion, in London
(2) Black Estate, hidden area (unknown)
(3) Money, 300,000.00 ponds
Personnel message:
Dear Harry,
If you have received this, then I am gone. But not from your heart. Please do not cry for me. With all you have been through, and what you now know of our little world. I hope you know that not everything is as it seams. I was forbidden under a wizard's oath to not tell you about your powers. But in death I am now free to tell you what I know. You have more power, then Dumbledore or Voldemort combined. All you need is proper training. Dumbledore did not want you to know, incase it went to your head! He even went so far as to put a block on your power. I do not know how to remove it, the only thing I do know is that the spell is a dark one. You will need to get either Dumbledore or someone with dark arts knowledge to have it removed.
I love you and will keep watch over you, you are never alone. Do not cry, and keep me in your thoughts.
Your ever loving prankster and Godfather forever,
Sirius. (Padfoot)
"No!" 'Even more secrets, oh Sirius, I will not cry. I will always keep you in my thoughts.' "You have told me more than anyone. Does Dumbledore know that this was in your will?" "I hope not!" Pacing back and forth in my room agitated, wondering what I am supposed to do about this. Dumbledore really knows how to mess with peoples lives, his manipulations have gone to far this time. I will show him what is what!
"What has Mr. Potter in such an uproar?" He is pacing back and forth the room liked a caged tiger. I can feel the power even in my room. What could have been in that scroll to cause him this much aggravation? The power is almost enough to make fall to my knees. I now know why my master wants him gone. If I could train him, the world would be mine.
Sitting down I open the next scroll, my fathers will.
Will of James Potter
I leave all moneys and properties to Harry James Potter. This includes:
(1) Potter Estates, London
(2) Potter Mansion, London
(3) Gothic Hollow
(4) Potter Cottage, Chicago
(5) Potter House, New York
(6) Potter Villa, Italy
(7) Home Ground, (Unknown)
Money, 1,783,245.00 pounds

Dear Harry
I love you, and hope you are fully grown when you read this will. You are loved and missed. Please keep, your mother and I in your heart. Let us live on in your mind. Now Harry, there is something special about the males in our family. They can bare children if in a male/male relationship. So know no matter what, the line can be carried on..
Please remember
I love you and so does your mother. Live well Harry, we will see you in the after life.
Your loving father,
James ( Prongs)
Dad, what are you saying? I can have my own family, too love and bring it to this world. Man, thank God! I thought the Potter line would end with me. But than again who would want a freak? A man that can carry children. I knew I could never be normal. Laying down on the bed, I let my thoughts drift to the life I dream of having someday.
Mr. Potter, I think I will have to see just what those scrolls have to say for myself. The way you're acting, I would say it is bad news. We will see. The next time you fall asleep or leave, I will find out what your hiding.
