I do not own Harry Potter, or Twilight!

Warning: I think I just broke cannon. Oops?

Chapter 8

"Axegrinder? This is Dahlia Potter. Implement Plan C." Dahlia said through her communication mirror. She had called Kreacher earlier, and asked for a few items that would (hopefully) not be missed. Her nifty comm mirror was one of them.

"Ah. We became aware of your 'death' the moment it happened. Your Life Crystal in the archives went dark at approximately 5:50pm. Your Crystal turned red immediately after. Red is for Vampire. If you had lost your magic, you would have been locked out of the Potter Vault, and it would go dormant for 100 years before being absorbed. That would not have happened if you have a Will which disburses the full Assets of your family. As you were previously told, you were automatically disqualified by the Black Family Magic's to be the Head, due to your non-human status. Your Will, however, will be followed. I will send out notices for the Will readings after our discussion. Is there anything else?" Axegrinder asked.

"Yes. I need seven amulets, please. Also, I need access to Blood Lust Potion, and a list of Potions made for vampire use. I will need new paperwork. Birth Certificate, NHS card, school records, medical records, Driver's License, Passport, the muggle works'. Take the fees from the 'vampire fund' I set aside." Dahlia said. "Oh! I need a dual citizenship with the U.S., and the notice for MACUSA immigration." She added, brow crinkled in thought.

"Of course, Miss Potter. What name would you like them in?" The Goblin asked.

"The same name the Potter Will holds." She said, decisively.

"Very Well. Please send your House Elf for the Amulets. I can set you up with the official Gringotts Potion Master. You order through the bank, and it is all anonymous. It costs more, but well, you really have no other choice with your fame. I will send seven Blood Lust potions with your amulets. The paperwork will be ready on the day of the Will reading. I will give it to you at that time." Axegrinder said, while scribbling notes on parchment.

"Thank you for your help, Axegrinder." Dahlia said. "May your gold ever flow." She finished.

"May your gold ever flow, Miss Potter." He said, closing the connection.

Dahlia sat back, thinking about what she was about to do. She was about to cause some great people, a lot of pain. Those Will notices may be the first notification of her 'death'. Either way, she would be hurting them by pretending to be dead. She planned on having Andromeda pulled aside at the Will reading, and requesting that she take a Vow, before having her told of her survival as a vampire.

She was considering doing the same for Luna and Neville. Her only hesitation was about whether it was safe to have so many people in the know.

She had to go to Gringotts, to have her memory of her attack extracted, she remembered. She would do that after getting the Blood Lust potion, she decided. She called for Kreacher, and asked him to pick up the items from the bank. Less than three minutes later, she had seven amulets, and seven bottles of potions.

Edward and his whole family, minus Dahlia, were outside wrestling. They had not heard her conversation, due to the built-in silencing charms on the mirror. As soon as she got off it, however, Edward heard her thinking about gifts she had for them.

Dahlia came outside, and watched them wrestling and rough-housing. She smiled sadly at the picture they made. She had always wanted a family like theirs. Edward and Jasper became aware of her sad feelings and thoughts, and turned towards her. The distraction cost Edward, as he went flying into a nearby boulder. He made an enormous racket as he collided with the stone, and his arm cracked.

Quicker than you could blink, Dahlia was there. She examined his arm quickly, holding it tightly. The scent, and feeling of her so close to him, was making him aroused, causing Jasper to look at him askance.

"Oh! You poor thing. Are you alright?" She asked, as the wrestling came to an end.

"Um. I'm ok. Thanks." Edward said awkwardly, pulling his arm back.

"Hey, sweetheart. Did you finish your call to the bank?" Carlisle said, coming up and putting his arm around her shoulders.

"Yes, and I come bearing gifts!" She said, trying to keep her mind blank with Occlumency.

They trooped into the living room, and sat on the sofas. The Cullens could all see seven bottles with a rusty-colored liquid inside, and a small box on the coffee table.

"Ok! I know you said you knew about the Magical World, but had never entered it, right?" She asked, getting nods all around. "Well. There have been many advances for vampires through Gringotts Bank. It is run by Goblins, so the people who work for them usually aren't prejudiced about Creatures. They have been working to improve the lives of all creatures. I bought two of their greatest inventions for all of us." Dahlia said, excited.

"Thank you, my dear." Carlisle said, giving her a quick kiss.

Dahlia beamed at him, then finished what she was saying. "These potions are called The Blood Lust Potion." She said.

Jasper and Alice both perked up at that.

"Taken monthly, they control blood lust. The only thing you have to worry about is Singers. All other blood does not bother you. You will feel a burning in the throat when you need to feed. It is slightly expensive, and must be taken monthly, but it is supposed to be worth it." Dahlia said, picking up a bottle of the potion. "It will, no doubt, taste like dirty socks. Most potions do. I think the affect might be worth it, though." She said, then popped off the top of the potion, then chugged it down. She grimaced at the taste, but felt an immediate difference in how she felt. "Definitely dirty socks, but it has helped immensely." She said.

Jasper was amazed. If this worked, it would change everything for him. He was afraid it was too good to be true. Alice grabbed two off the table, and handed him one. "Oh My God! This is amazing! Thank you!" She said, and drank her potion down.

As everyone else thanked Dahlia and took it, Jasper was just staring at his bottle. The thought that this might work was making him feel such a swirl of emotions. The family's amazement was also washing over him. At Alice's urging, he finally drank the potion. The results were instant, and striking.

Jasper felt the tension in his body release for what felt like the first time. He straightened up in his seat, and the pained look on his face smoothed out. He couldn't believe how much better he felt, overall. "Thank you. So much." Jasper said, smiling genuinely for what felt like the first time in a long time.

Dahlia smiled warmly at him. "You are welcome, Jasper." She said, then picked up the box. "This box contains an amulet for each of us." She said, pulling out a gold chain with a ruby-like stone dangling from it. "This allows you to go out in the sun without becoming a disco ball-" She started, causing Emmett to boom out a laugh. "They will also cause you to appear to have aged." She continued, causing them all to gasp.

Carlisle took one from the box, studying it closely. "What do you mean, Doll?" He asked, with cautious excitement.

"Every amulet is charmed to age you one year for every 365 days it senses have passed. They have to be charged yearly with magic, which they do at Gringotts 'for a fee'. They don't actually age you, just give you the appearance of age. They are charmed to be unable to be removed, except by the wearer. They last for 90 years, before they have to be replaced. If you age partway, then want to 'reset' it, that can also be done at Gringotts. They are wickedly expensive, but worth it if you want to stay in one place long enough to make a true home." Dahlia said.

Rosalie knew if she could, she would be crying. She hated moving around all the time. She loathed going through High School year after year. These were life changing gifts for her family. Overcome, she jumped up and hugged Dahlia.

"These are the best gifts we have ever gotten! Thank you so much for including us in your world." She said, with her face buried in Dahlia's neck.

"You are my family, now. I could do no less." Dahlia said, hugging the usually bitchy woman tightly.

"My love, you are the best thing that has ever happened to this family. Thank you." Carlisle said.

The other's couldn't help but agree. This was life changing.

Unbeknownst to them, this was also life changing for a girl that was currently unknown to them. Her name?

Bella Swan.
