Harry

"I wonder if Dumbles will give Harry is own dorm like he did James when he was of age" Sirius said to Remus.

"There is a point, pup" Remus said "claim your inheritance"

"I thought we did that at Gringotts" Harry said

"For the Potters you did" Sirius said "Hogwarts has to be done inside the building"

"I Harry James Potter claim my inheritance as Lord Gryffindor through blood" Harry said and the castle shook "I Harry James Potter claim my inheritance as Lord Hufflepuff through blood" this caused the castle to shake again.

"Potter stop this now" Snape snarled walking towards Harry but Remus and Sirius intercepted him with stunners.

"I Harry James Potter claim my inheritance as Lord Ravenclaw through blood" Harry continued "and I Harry James Potter claim my inheritance as Lord Slytherin through magic" the castle shook two more times and then the head table was pushed forward and replaced with another table that looked much grander than the teacher's table.

"Your show cub" Sirius said nudging Harry towards the table with Daphne and Blaise following him reassuringly and talking amongst themselves.

"Lord Hogwarts" Amelia said and Harry turned around "for the sake of the fact your guardian removed the death eater who was impersonating an Auror who was the defence against the dark arts teacher it is part of your authority to pick another one"

"Ok I pick Remus Lupin" Harry said

"I am not being taught by him" Ron Weasley roared "he's a fucking werewolf he could eat us"

Harry tried to hold his magic in before he destroyed the redheaded dick Daphne however was not so diplomatic and blasted Ron across the room where he flew against the stone wall with a resounding thud.

"Not all of us are prejudiced Weasley you dick" Daphne said "apart from the death eater professor Lupin was the best DADA teacher we have ever had"

"Why thank you miss Greengrass" Remus said with a warm smile "I appreciate it"

"It is true though professor" Blaise backed up her friend "I learnt more from you about Dementors, boggarts and werewolves to say just three of the things we learnt from you than any other of the three teachers we had"

"The governors will not allow it Harry" Albus said kindly with made Sirius growl "I may be able to find you some suggestions for legal representatives and teachers"

"I am on the governors or have you forgotten that in your old age Albus?" Amelia said causing Harry and Sirius to grin "and I don't think I have a problem with Mr Lupin teaching my niece for what happens to him one day a month, I am sure others such as Marie Greengrass, Augusta Longbottom and Xenophilus Lovegood to name but a few wouldn't either"

"I could help around the time Remus needs time off" Sirius put in "and I am willing to bet that Ryan would take up the position of advisor/bodyguard around school unless you see a reason why one of the most respected aurors on the force can take some time off Amelia?"

"I can't see a problem with that" Amelia said with a grin "after all Cornelius has allowed me complete control over the Auror force on such matters as where they are stationed"

Now Harry, Daphne, Blaise and after much arguing Sirius and Remus where sitting at the new table eating dinner when something struck Harry with him being Lord Hogwarts and not having to live in the Slytherin dormitories did that even make him a member of Slytherin house?

"No lord Hogwarts" a voice said in his head "as you are lord Hogwarts you have your own house in which you can invite your own members to join?"

"Who are you?" Harry asked the voice

"I am Hogwarts" the voice replied "as you are Lord Hogwarts you are able to communicate with me it has been nearly 20 years since I have had someone do so as your father was the last your uncle did not claim the title"

"I have spoken to Hogwarts" Harry said out loud "and I have been informed that I am no longer in Slytherin house but a house of my own in which I can invite my own members"

"So who are you inviting dear Harry?" Blaise muttered causing Harry to grin

"In my house" Harry said "my head of house will be Professors Lupin and Black"

"Ha we have authority" Sirius said standing up

"God help us" Pomona Sprout muttered to Minerva with a grin

"In my house" Harry continued "I accept Daphne Greengrass, Blaise Zabini, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Susan Bones, Hannah Abbott, Tracey Davis, Luna Lovegood, Cho Chang, Roger Davies, Ernie McMillan, and Terry Boot"

No one missed the fact that Harry had taken members from each of the four houses most notably 3 Slytherins, 4 Ravenclaws, 3 Hufflepuffs and two Gryffindors, also Harry had accepted two prefects in Daphne and Hermione and the head boy and girl Cho and Roger into his new house. As each joined the table as it extended Sirius saw the look of anger on the face of Albus Dumbledore increase which caused the grin on Sirius' to do the same causing him to pull out a mirror.

"Padfoot to shadow-wing" he said

Ryan

Ryan had been in the kitchen when the mirror on the wall in the kitchen of Potter manor bleeped.

"Padfoot to shadow-wing" he heard Sirius say

"Shadow-wing hears Padfoot" Ryan replied "what can I do for you Pads?"

"Just thought to let you know that the cub has claimed his Hogwarts inheritance and the old man looks ready to blow"

"I wish I could have seen it Pads" Ryan said with a grin

"Yeah well, I get the feeling you aren't in that big house all alone are you shadow boy?"

"Sarah has been dead over 15 years Pads" Ryan said "I may be thinking about moving on either way it isn't any of your business"

"Anyways we need you to get your dragon-wolf ass over here as fast as you can" Sirius said "you are being called on security by Amelia so get here as soon as you can and for the love of god make sure yours and her underwear aren't around when I come back to the manor" and his face disappeared from the mirror.

"Who was that?" the female voice called out again

"Your cousin Pads" Ryan said "our plan is progressing even faster"

"Good" she said "now all we need is to get me into Hogwarts as well"

"Yeah well I could always sneak you in" Ryan said with a grin

"I meant in an official position of power" she said "not all of us can use the fact we are aurors"

"I should hope not" Ryan said "but playing the part of the concerned family member should do for now" and she grinned manically.
