Hermione's thoughts
Chapter Four
"Up! Get up! Now!" she screeched banging on the door "UP!" she banged on the door again and Harry heard her walking towards the kitchen and then the sound of the frying pan being put on the cooker. He rolled over and thought about what had just happened. He heard a small voice that sound a lot like Nixie.
'Harry? 'you awake?'
'Yeah Nix what the hell happened and why can I remember everything that's happened from twenty plus years ago?'
'Because I wanted you to remember it all, change it, Sirius is meant to be alive, people who have died shouldn't have Harry- Dumbledore- well there is no help there I cant trust that man- you were nothing but a weapon- hence why he died harry, you can save loads of people'
'You think?'
'Your Harry bloody Potter, you can do anything.'
'Yeah but-'
No buts Harry you have a choice re-live it and you'll end up back where we started you being used and marrying someone who you don't love.'
Harry thought of Hermione who he now couldn't live without- he loved her
my point exactly Nixie said you and Hermione have access to each others thoughts, except when one of you is sleeping – practice occlumancy Harry you'll need it. And Harry be careful, if one dies or gets injured then so does the other. So try and not get beaten up
'Hey its not my fault- Dudley'
'Harry I was joking look i have to go, if you have anything wait to get alone mainly in Hogwarts old classrooms or the room of requirements- I'm banned from all muggle houses and wish for me.'
what why?
Bye harry Harry felt Nixie leave his head 5 seconds later Petunia was at the cupboard door
"Are you up yet?" she demanded
"Nearly." Harry replied not used to the squeaky throat he gulped going to have to get used to this voice Harry thought to himself. He couldn't hear Hermione so he assumed she was asleep still.
"Well get a move on, I want you to look after the bacon. And don't you dare let it burn, I want everything perfect for Duddy's birthday."
Harry groaned as he remembered what happened in the previous timeline.
"What did you say?" his aunt snapped through the door.
"Nothing, nothing..." he trailed off Harry huffed before he slowly made his way out of bed and started looking for socks. He found one under his bed and after pulling the same spider as last time off one of them, and put them on.
When he was dressed he went down the over cleaned hall into the kitchen. The table was almost hidden beneath all of Dudley's birthday presents. It looked like nothing had changed in this timeline, as Dudley has gotten the same stuff as in the previous one.
Uncle Vernon entered the kitchen as Harry was turning the bacon.
"Comb your hair." he barked at him; Harry sighed Nothing changed there he thought to himself for a second time that day.
Harry was frying Eggs by the time Dudley arrived in the kitchen with his mother. Harry put the plates of bacon and eggs on the table, which was even more difficult as there wasn't much room.
Dudley was counting his presents. "Thirty- six" he said looking at his parents, "that's two less than last year"
"Darling, you having counted Auntie Margie's present, see it's here under this big one from mummy and daddy"
"All right then, thirty-seven then" Dudley said his face getting redder and redder. Harry saw this coming and thanked the lucky stars he was able to; wolfed his bacon down as fast as possible.
Petunia obviously scented danger too, because she said quickly "and we'll buy you to new presents while were out today. Hows that pop-kin? Two more presents. Is that all right?"
Spoilt pig-headed baffoon Harry snorted in his breakfast at Nixies remark. The Dursleys looked at harry with a quizzical look and Harry coughed.
"Sorry" he said.
"So I'll have-" Dudley said trying to count.
"Thirty- nine sweetums" said Petunia.
"Oh," Dudley said grinning and reaching for his first gift "All right then."
Vernon grinned "Little tyke wants his money's worth, just like his father, atta boy Dudley" he ruffled Dudley's hair
At that moment the telephone rang and Harry quickly silenced it with a wand-less charm, Vernon and Petunia looked at Harry before looking at each other "Well need a new phone while were out Pet." Vernon said smiling grimly.
Petunia nodded.
Harry got up and cleaned away the plates.
"I best get to Mrs. Figg then." Harry said after washing up and wiping his hands on a tea towel.
Vernon nodded and never said a word as he walked out the kitchen and headed towards and out the front door.
Harry went to the park near Magnolia Crescent, and baked in the sun shine laying on the freshly cut grass and relaxing before he got up and realised a plan. Swearing at the idea before running back to Privet drive, huffing and puffing he arrived at the door, walking in he saw the Dudley's in the living room preparing to leave
"BOY!" Vernon screeched Harry lifted his arms up from his side where a stitch was begin to form, to show he wasn't armed.
"Mrs. Figg broke her leg. She can't look after me." he said
"Well what do you expect us to do?" Vernon said as harry put his hands down.
"Well how about this, I come to London with you- wait hear me out" Harry said at Vernon's red face "You drop me off in the centre, I wont bother you or even ask anything of you, for the rest of the year, just all I ask is you drop me off, I can make my own way back." He said fingers crossing behind him.
Vernon and Petunia looked at one another before deciding, "Fine, but you make your own way back." he said Harry smiled a little before following the others out to the car, sliding in the back with Dudley, Harry belted up and looked to the window watching the world go by.
They arrived in London 20 minutes later, and Vernon pulled up in the town centre.
"Well boy, Get out!" he said snapped at him, Harry unbuckled and got out in to the sunshine centre, laughing at Harry the Dursley's drove off to the zoo.
'Harry,?' Hermione's voice rang through his head
'Hermione are you okay?'
'Yes, I've just woke up, and felt your glee.'
'Well I am currently in the centre of London, heading to Gringotts.'
'Why? And more importantly how?'
'Dursleys dropped me off in the middle of London, and well that's a surprise.'
'Oh Harry please tell.'
Harry shook his head and closed the connection; he felt Hermione's anger that she sent him. Grinning he headed to the run down old pub.
It stood in the same place as the previous timeline, in between a record shop and a large book shop, muggles of course couldn't see it as they walked past. It was the same run down pub that Harry remembered. Harry walked forward slowly making sure he didn't get caught by any muggles, he entered the old pub and walked quickly to the bar. Hushing a younger looking Tom to the end of the bar he whispered in the left ear.
"Please help me, my guardian's are muggles; I need to get in to Gringotts, could you help me with the wall?" he asked Tom nodded
"Follow me" he whispered back making sure no one followed him, Harry followed him through the back door and stood near the full dustbin. Tom had pulled his wand from a dirty apron and undid the wall.
The wall opened up and Harry stepped forward; and entered the brightly lit Diagon Alley, stepping in to the warm sunlight, Harry grinned more and headed to the bright white large building of Gringotts. He entered the building, and went to a free goblin.
"Excuse me?" he asked the goblin looked up "Do you know where I could get my parents will read from?" he asked.
"Who's asking?" the Goblin asked rudely.
"Harry James Potter" Harry simply replied.
The goblin grinned evilly and told Harry to follow him. The goblin lead Harry to a large cream room, all it held was a desk and few chairs and it also had a large window overlooking Diagon Alley.
"Sit here Mr. Potter" he said "I will fetch Blaine." The small goblin moved back through the door and Harry waited. Harry didn't need to wait long as with in a few seconds the first goblin came in and the second was slightly taller but he face had a lot of scars on.
"Mr. Potter" the first goblin replied "This is Blaine." he said, the first goblin then went back to the counter leaving Harry and Blaine alone.
Harry nodded and smiled, Blaine eyed Harry, and smiled at him.
"Do you mind if we take a blood sample Mr Potter, it is just to prove who you are." he said Harry nodded and held out his hand.
Blaine has cut Harry so fast, Harry didn't even feel a thing, he'd only realised when a large parchment was on the table and was filling it self out.

"WHAT?" Harry screeched he knew the rest but the marriage contract to Ginny.
"Well Lord Potter, your parents will's are on a magical seal, Gringotts will find a way to brake it" Blaine said, "Now as a Lord to 3 houses you are entitled to emancipation" Blaine said
Harry nodded "I would like that, thank you." Blaine nodded and with a wave of two fingers Harry felt lighter. "There is a magical Block on you." Harry was confused at this "But we can find a curse breaker and see what can be done."
"Yes please Blaine." Harry said
"Well what else? Ah yes well as you have accepted your Lordship titles your vaults are now combined to your trust vaults as we have had some one take from this said trust vault only you by blood can access the vaults now everyone else is on a lock down. You have a total of five houses including Godric's Hollow and Hogwarts itself." he said reading off another bit of parchment
Harry nodded "So I am the owner of Hogwarts?" he asked
Blaine nodded "Your the last living descendant of Godric Gryffindor and Helga Hufflepuff, Your Aunt hasn't been able to claim the title of her Ladyship of Ravenclaw because she is of non-magical blood, as you are Lily Evans son and your aunt's nephew it falls to you. Your full title is Harry James Potter of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, Lord Potter of the House of Potter, Lord Peverall of the House of Peverall, Lord Evans of the Magical side of the Evans House, and Lord and Protector of Hogwarts"
"Bloody hell" Harry whispered Blaine nodded
"Would you like to set up an accountant for the assets?" Blaine asked Harry nodded
"Yes I would like Griphook, please" he said Blaine nodded and smiled "I've been told he was a close family friend" Blaine didn't know just how close to him he was.
"Yes that would be sorted,and yes he was,he looked after your great- great- great grandfathers vaults, he was just starting out then, your father's father requested him to, and so did your father, " Blaine made a small note "Now for your rings" he said he got up and disappeared back through the door and reappeared moments later with a large bound wooden box, it was grey and it had a large picture of a dragon with fire burning the sides it looked a 100 plus years old.
"Now Lord Potter place you right hand in the dragons mouth" Blaine said smiling.
Harry nodded and gulped, he did what he was told and on his middle finger he felt the warmth of what felt like breath, on his hand. Once it was cool again Harry removed his hand and on his middle finger was a large ring, with the Potter crest and moto.
"Now just say the house you want showing and it will show." Blaine said Harry nodded and tried it out it showed all four houses Harry settled on the Potter ring and smiled at Blaine.
"I will owl you a letter with any more details that you need to know." Blaine said Harry nodded and pulled his Hogwarts letter out,
"Can I get some money out before we remove the block?" he asked with a smile.
Blaine nodded and indicated to Harry to follow him through a set of large oak doors that magically appeared, they entered a large circler room that had nothing but a large slab of concrete and some oil lamps, Harry followed Blaine to the slab.
"Please strip" Blaine said Harry looked confused before Blaine started explaining again "if your naked then the block can be removed, it helps the curse breaker get to it better" he said harry nodded and stripped off all his clothes, and then he laid on the cold hard slab.
"Bring in the curse breaker" Blaine said
a load banging could be heard, before Harry's eyes were covered, "Sorry Mr potter its for our safety, as well as your own" harry nodded as he ears were covered to, Harry nothing but Hermione's voice in his head.
Harry, what the hell is going on, I can see or hear anything?
Sorry Hermione it is just that there breaking Voldermort's soul.
Do they know its Voldermort's soul?
I don't think so-
Hermione was cut off a searing pain went through Harry, starting at his head, his whole body was on fire, he couldn't hear Hermione screaming his name or even the feel of cool metal as they bound him down to the slab, he felt nothing but pure pain, through his heart and through his body. Hermione was feeling the exact same, lucky she was on her bed at this point, watching TV, but it didn't help her when it came to the pain. Harry grunted and groaned as the pain lessened but it still didn't stop the screaming of Voldermort, as he soul was ripped from Harry's scar. Harry herd Hermione's soft voice before blacking out.
About 20 minutes later, harry woke up to Blaine and a large well built man red haired man.
"Hello Harry?" the man said "I'm bill Weasley" he said holding a large hand out Harry shook it and looked at Blaine a tad worried,
"Not to worry Harry" the goblin said grinning "Mr Weasley has to keep Gringotts secrets, he can divulge any information at all, to anyone including his family and certainly not that pompous fool Dumbledore, its Gringotts code" Bill nodded
"Or I die" he said grinning Harry smiled and his shoulders rested, he noticed that the Goblin's dressed him while he was out.
"okay thanks bill" Harry nodded at him and Bill left the room quietly. "is that everything?" Harry said
"Don't you want to know-" Blaine said, Harry shook his head
"No thanks, I have a inkling on who and what it was" Blaine nodded and Harry got up,
"Okay Mr Potter, lets get you some money out then" Blaine said leaving the room with Harry following
Several moments later Harry painfully stepped out of Gringotts with a bag tied around his neck, this bag was special because all you had to do was to say the amount you wanted and the bag would fill up with the right cash it also did this in the muggle world but Harry had decided to use a card for the muggle world.
Harry wanted to get Hedwig first, and so he set off for Eyelops Owl Emporium to fetch her. Once he had her he brought the necessary books and a few extra ones just to be safe, he also brought potions items like a cauldron, scales and knives and a student starter pick (it was said the student starter kick for Slytherin was a lot more advance than the rest of the others so Harry brought this one) he also brought a several compartment trunk complete with library, defence room and a small bedroom. He went to Madam Malkin's for all occasions and brought Hogwarts basics, a extra winter clock, a couple of sets of self adjusting dress robes, new shoes and trainers, some everyday wear robes, summer cloaks. All he needed now was a wand, and he knew just the place.
Mr Ollivander had nothing on Professor Twining, Harry found him while in London with Ginny the day of the signing. So Harry set of for Muggle London, the shop itself was bright and bold with blues and green paint everywhere. Most Muggles tutted as they walked passed but very few actually stopped. Harry walked boldly through the door and straight to the from counter.
"Professor?" he asked and from a beaded 'staff only' room stepped out a fat balding man, who had bright blue eyes and had laugh lines across his forehead
"Yes?" he said politely
"Harry James Potter" Harry said holding out his left arm, Knowing this was a secret within the magical community, the professor gasps
"Young Harry," he said stepping forwards shaking his hand "I haven't seen you since you were a small child, what the devil happened to you?" he asked
"Voldermort" was all Harry said the professor nodded
"Come through the back Harry, and we will hook you up." Harry followed the professor through the beads and stepped in a whole new place, books and large objects filled the walls, all that stood was a small table with three boxes on and two chairs, the professor pointed to one directing Harry to sit down. All of Harry's shopping was flying towards another small table where it settled in a neat pile. Harry grinned and took the seat.
"Now all you need to do is place your right hand in each box and pull what ever floats in your hand out of the box, this one," he said pointing to a smaller than the rest box. "Is the wood box, this one," he said pointing to the slightly larger box. "Is the object so like dragon heart string for example," he said "and this one," pointing to the third largest box "Is the size." Harry nodded and with the word he placed his hand in the smaller box and as soon as he did he felt the same warmth breath as he did in Gringotts. Harry pulled out a large bit of "Willow." said the professor, with the oak in hand he placed it in the second box and pulled out "Holly and unicorn hair," Harry nodded and placed all three objects in the third and final box where he kept his hand and he felt a slightly warmer feel than before and it was several moments before Harry pulled out a 10 and half inch wand which had a green dragon jewel on the end of his wand, the dragon came alive when Harry waved the wand around and wrapped itself around Harry's right arm, the wand itself felt more powerful than any other he has ever held.
"Now than Mr Potter that will be 1,100 gallons." The Professor said.
"but?" Harry ask willing to pay more, as the wand was custom and the jewel was worth nearly six hundred gallons as it was also a second core that he could use to store magic in that only he could detect.
"Now I know I am overly expensive, not knowing that Harry knew the cost of the jewel and materials, but you are Harry Potter, child to a good friend of mine, and I will throw in a protector arm holster for 5 hundred" Harry nodded and spent 2,000 gallons in the shop on the wand, protector holster, protective night stand box, cleaning kits, and a book on do it yourself spells and locks. Harry's parcels followed him to the front where Harry placed them all in his trunk, which he then placed a feather light charm and then shrunk his trunk with the use of a rune so it would not be found by the under-age-magic department, he then placed the trunk in his over size jeans pockets and left for muggle London, after going to a cash point to take some muggle money out of his Gringotts account, he stopped by a jewellers to fetch Hermiones Birthday present and then he left Muggle London in a taxi to Magnolia Crescent, Harry then thanked and paid the taxi driver before walking the few hundred yards to Privet Drive, when he got there Aunt Petunia told him to make a cheese sandwich and to go back to his small cupboard.
When Vernon came home at 9 o'clock after a few drinks in the local, he came to Harry and asked him to move to Dudley's Second room. Harry thought that his Hogwarts letter must have come early and did not want Harry to know as he would then ask questions. It was past two o clock in the morning when Dudley finished his tantrum, this was only caused by Vernon who clipped Dudley around the ear and sent him to bed.
After spending several hours talking to Hermione, Harry settled down and drifted of to a peaceful sleep for the first time in over a year.
Somewhere in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, two first year folders and a large book changed, it was nothing big, just the names had changed, but no-one spotted this as the headmaster had just left the office.
Somewhere in the depths of the Ministry of Magic the same thing happened two names changed, but yet again no-one noticed and the person who worked there had left the room just minutes beforehand...
