Chapter 4: The Last Will and Testament of the Potter Family.
Disclaimer: I own nothing except the OC's.
"Ow!" Harry yelped, removing his finger from the box. There was quite a cut down the middle of his finger.
However, within a few seconds the cut was healed, and the box opened.
"Good, you're not an imposter. I wasn't too worried, mind you, but it crossed my mind." Ragnok told Harry cheerfully.
Harry nodded, relief washing through his body. The box accepted him, he was definitely Harry Potter, and he was definitely about to hear what should have happened to him.
"Now let's see what should have been," Ragnok said, "Let the reading of the Potter will begin."
I James Charlus Potter of sound mind and body, declare this my last will and testament.
I Lily Emmeline Potter nee Evans of sound mind and body, declare this my last will and Testament.
To Albus Dumbledore, we leave nothing but a letter. A letter of proof that he is not our son's guardian.
To Remus J. Lupin, we leave 250,000 galleons, and our island in the Atlantic. That should help your "furry problem".
To Sirius Black, we leave 500,000 galleons, and vouch that all crimes done leading to our death were not your fault.
To Pettigrew, we leave the knowledge that you're a rat animagus to the Prophet. If they do not print it, Gringots will refuse to give the workers their money, until it is printed.
And lastly, to our son Harry James Potter, we leave you all of our love and possessions. Should you be hearing this, then something has gone wrong with the carrying out of our will. If that is so, then the paintings in our vault that will be made after we're done writing this. Dumbledore will have NO access to this vault, or any of our vaults. We also leave you something else.
We leave letters of love and support to our son, Harry James Potter. May they guide you in times of need.
If our paintings are destroyed, and there is proof that Dumbledore has done it, his vaults are to be seized immediately, and a full audit shall take place of all vaults. In fact, all vaults owned by the Potter family shall undergo an immediate full audit.
Here is the list of potential guardians:
Amelia Bones
Sirius Black
Minerva McGonagall
Remus J. Lupin
Apollo Greengrass
Under NO circumstances whatsoever, is Harry James Potter to go within 25 miles of the Dursely's.
We leave that if our choices of guardians are deliberately ignored, Harry James Potter is to be emancipated on his 11thbirthday. He is also to do the inheritance test; we have a feeling something will pop up.
Signed,
Lord Potter
and
Lady Potter

"So, where do we go from here?" Harry asked slowly. He himself was astonished at what was revealed in the will.
"We carry out the will, as it should have been when they died." Ragnok growled out.
"Let's not forget about the emancipation process. Also, I believe a trip to the Potter vaults is in order." Barchoke reminded roughly, anger flowing through his veins as the disregard of the Will of Gringots was revealed.
"Indeed," Ragnok growled out, "how are you managing Mr. Potter?"
"I'm…" Harry trailed off. He was speechless, his parents will was completely ignored, and might have been just disregarded.
"Take your time, Barchoke and I will be back soon enough," Ragnok said gently, "Barchoke, go down to the mines for the Emancipation Crystal, I will go to the Potter vault."
Barchoke nodded, and with a wave to Harry, they left the room.
"Completely ignored, utterly disregarded, I will-"
"You'll do nothing James, sit down. Now," the Warrior commanded.
"I'm not a soilder you can command!" James growled.
"No, you're not. That's why I'm not the leader. You're the leader for your level head remember?" the Warrior reminded James.
James scowled, "Fine, I won't do anything. How is A doing with this?"
"He's in his area, just writing down and scratching out hundreds of theories. What else would you expect?"
"Nothing less, I suppose," James mused.
"Our time of hiding is coming close to ending. Are you prepared to lead us? Are you prepared to deal with the decisions you may be forced to make?"
"Wrath," James said, turning and looking Wrath in the eyes, "hard times will come, and I will make the right call. No matter the type of decision, I will do what's best for Harry. Remember that."
Wrath nodded, satisfied with the answer.
"Call a meeting. It's time that I act like a leader, will you have my back?" James ordered.
"Back to back? Always, my brother." Wrath answered, clasping arms with James.
AN: I apologize for the wait. My laptop broke, and Finals are tomorrow and Thursday, I've been a bit busy. Reviews help, and are welcome. I have flame repellant on though, so no flames.
