Chapter 14
A few days after arriving at Zibini Mansion the group of adults were amazed with how much their children had changed. Mrs. And Mr. Greengrass had arrived the day after the children and were very shocked when they saw their daughter laughing with her friends. Now though it was time for Diagon Alley to get their dress robs. Everybody was gathered in front of the fireplace. Finally everybody disappeared through the fire arriving strait in the Leaky Cauldron.
"Alright Children groups of three." Mrs. Zabini said.
"We have to go to Gringotts so we will be group." Hermione said, indicating Ron and Rowena.
"We just need dress robs." Daphne said motioning to Draco and Blaise.
"Alright then hurry along you lot." Mrs. Greengrass said smiling and in no time the two groups of three were gone.
Arriving at Gringotts they were welcomed by goblins and lead to Gemnuck. Once in his office they all sat down and smiled.
"It's a pleasure to see you again Gemnuck." Rowena said brightly causing the Goblin to smile.
"It is a pleasure to see you as well Rowena." he said shaking her hand. "Now onto Business my name is Gemnuck and I am Head of Gringotts."
"Pleasure to meet you sir, my name is Hermione Granger by adoption and Selenity Roselyn at birth." Hermione said softly.
"Very nice to meet you my names Ronald Weasley." Ron said, smiling.
"Nice to meet you both." He said pulling a crystal basin out with a dagger. "If you both wouldn't mind doing a small test it will answer many of our questions." the Goblin said.
"Of course not sir." Hermione said brightly.
"All you have to do is cut your finger and let seven drops of blood fall into the basin." He said handing the dagger to her.
Hermione took it into her slime hand and smiled as she felt it's cool diamon handle against her soft skin. Gently she cut her figner and let seven drops of her blood fall into the bowl. The blood though seemed to be mush darker then it was supposed to be.
The Goblin dragged a finger through the blood and then over a piece of thick parchment. He said a few words in another language and then words started to appear.
Hermione Jane Granger by adoption
Selenity Roselyn by birth
Daughter of Olivia Roselyn and Tomas O'Bryan by birth
Daughter of Cristopher Granger and Jane Granger nee O'Neil
Godparents, Alexandra O'Bryan and Crystopher Storm

Next was Ron.
Ronald Bilius Weasley
Son of Arthur Alexander Weasley and Molly Samantha Weasley nee Prewett
Godparents, Gideon Prewett and Muriel Prewett

"Well now that confirms many things such as your titles as Guardians." Gemnuck said brightly. "Now let us see if their are vaults assigned to you."
Getting to his feet he made his way to a bookshelf were he took a book and returned. He then placed it onto the table and gave them a quill.
"This is a Blood Quill all you have to do is sigh your names into the book. It will sting a bit because it uses the users blood but it will have it's purpose." Gemnuck explained.
Ron was the first to go. After sighing his name the goblin turned the book around to face him and nodded to himself.
"You are quite lucky Mr. Weasley your godfather Gideon Prewett left you his vault. Also their is another vault left to you by a very old member of your family. One Damien Weasley who seemed to be a seer. He gave you his own vaults." the Goblin said softly.
Then in a swift movement he placed his hand over the basin and whispered a few words. Then handed a three keys to Ron who accepted them gratefully.
"Thank you." Ron said.
"They is not much money in those vaults it seems though that most of the contents are magical objects and such." Gemnuck informed him.
Next was Hermione who scribed her name down, her birth name and then the goblin turned the book back to him and hummed.
"Very nice Miss Roselyn." he said making Hermione blush. "You have a few vaults the trust vault from your birth parents being one of them. They wrote us a letter saying that it was yours." He said. "Then you have a few other vaults that were given to you by other members of the Roselyn family, your grandmother for starters. Although there is mostly objects in that vault." Gemnuck said making Hermion gap.
Doing as he did the last time Gemnuck made a set of keys and handed them to Hermione who accepted them.
"Now I have the honour of handing these to you both." Gemnuck said, taking two keys from his desk and sliding them over to both Ron and Hermione.
Gently they took them and looked them over. They were different then the other keys, made of white crystal and yellow gold. The top of the key had their symbols on them, a hourglass and a fairy.
"This are the keys to your Guardian vaults." Gemnuck took them. "You can't lose them because they can never be a second one made until the next guardian is found." He told them.
"Thank you." they said.
"Now onto other busyness Rowena, we did a full check of all your vaults and found nothing missing. Everything is doing very well." He said.
"Thank you Gemnuck." she said brightly.
"I suppose you three must get to a vault for some money I shall call a Goblin to bring you down their." Gemnuck told them then summoned a goblin.
Leaving the office the group were brought to their Guardian vaults. First was Hermione's that had the fairy painted onto the door. Gently she placed the key into the keyhole and watched as the door opened. Walking in she was amazed by the sight. Their were all kinds of things in the room from gowns and jewellery to books and money. Going around they room Hermione found a gown that would fit her perfectly for this ball. Gently she gathered it and placed it into a bag with some accessories that she thought would go very well with it. She then gathered some money then she left the vault. All she would need would be a pair of shoes.
The next vault was Ron's with the Hourglass panted onto it. Gently placing the key into the Keyhole he watched as the door unlocked and then walked in. The place was a little darker then Hermione's probably because of what Guardian he was. Still he contained just like Hermione, clothes, books, money and everything else. Swiftly he started to look around and with a start found a set of dress robs that would be brilliant for the winter party. Taking it with some dragon hid boots he found in his size, with some money, he then left the vault.
Next was Rowena. When they arrived at the vault they say that the butterfly was painted onto it yet the wings were wrapped around the body like a cocoon. Gently Rowena placed the key into the keyhole and then turned it. With a gasp the butterflies wings spread out and the door opened. Walking in Rowena was amazed by the sight. The place was dark like a cave but small little lights floated around. Gently she gathered on in her hand and started to walk around. Like Hermione and Ron's vault the place was filled with clothes, books, jewellery and money but hers also had weapons, and other things like Potion supplies. Going to the clothes section she looked through it and finally found a gown that would fit the Winter dance perfectly. She also found a pair of shoes to go with it and they fit. Slowly she went to the jewellery section and looked around. After gathering a few pieces and some money she left her vault.
Leaving Gringotts they went to find Hermione some shoes then went to Ollivanders. Once inside though a box flew their way only to stop and hover in front of Ron.
"Oh my, Oh my, I do apologies sometimes the wand just loves it's owner." Said Ollivander but once he saw them he brightened even more. "Ah so you have brought the third owner of the crystal wand." He said smiling.
"Yes, as Hermione already has hers Ron is the only one with out." Rowena said brightly.
"Well why don't you have a look my boy." the man said making Ron gulp.
Gently he took the box and opened it inside was a beautiful ruby wand with a gold ring around were the handle would be.
"Ah the Ruby wand, wing of a black angel with tears of a unicorn. Perfect combination." The Wand making said.
Waiving it around softly he gasped as he felt the power surround him and making him float of the ground slightly. When he finally got back down to the ground he smiled brightly.
"Sir if you wouldn't mind my original wand wasn't really my own." Ron said.
"Oh yes come, come we shall deal with that." Ollivander said.
Ron went forward and soon was trying wands finally he found his wand, it was Holly wood with tears of a unicorn and feather of a blood griffin.
After paying for the wand they left the shop and started to look around. They ended up going into the book store and got a few books then started to look for Christmas gifts. After that they met up with the adults of the group and waited for Draco, Blaise and Daphne. Once they arrived they left through the fire place and returned to Zabini mansion. Going to their rooms they each tried their outfits on to find that they fit perfectly. Then they hid them and gathered in the siting room were Blaise, Daphne and Draco were.
Hours latter the adults walked into the room and froze at what they saw. Draco was sound asleep on the sofa with Hermione curled to his side. Ron was also asleep but on the rug with Daphne almost on him and Blaise was asleep on the chair with Rowena siting on his lap head lining against his chest while Blaise had his arms around her waist, sound asleep. It was the perfect sight and they took a picture grinning. After that they each gathered a child and brought them to their room.
As Mrs. Zabini placed Rowena into her bed she smiled softly. This little girl was far more different then any Potter she ever met. Not at all like her father had been during his school days, she was more like her mother.
Gently she tucked her in and kissed her forehead softly before leaving the room.
...
Rowena looked around and smiled to herself. She was in her world. Turning around she gasped as she saw four people this time, none being her parents. They were all older then her parents but she recognized them immediate as her parent's parents, meaning they were her grandparents. It was obvious that Potter men loved red heads because her grandmother had red hair combined with beautiful honey coloured eyes. Beside her was her grandfather who had messy black hair and blue eyes. Then on her mothers side was her grandmother with beautiful dark brown hair and soft green eyes while her grandfather had short dark red hair and emerald green eyes.
"Hello their dear." Her paternal grandmother said. "Do you know where we are?" she asked.
"Yes I do, this is the my world, the world of Souls. I as the Guardian of Souls am responsible for it." She said.
"You are a Guardian?" Her paternal grandfather asked shocked.
"Yes." She said simply.
"My apologies but we do not understand this." Her mothers mother said.
"It is alright Mrs. Evens after all you and your husband our muggles while Mr. And Mrs. Potter are magical like myself." She said.
"Are the both of you Lily Evens parents?" Mrs. Potter asked.
"Why yes you must be James Potter's parents." Mr. Evens said brightly.
"Yes we are but what I do not understand is why we were brought here." Mr. Potter said.
"I can explain, I suppose this world decided that it wanted me to meet you." Rowena said softly. "Let me introduce myself, my name is Rowena, Rowena Potter I am the daughter of James Potter, your son and Lily Potter nee Evens your daughter." She said with a curtsy.
"Lily married!" Shouted Mrs. Evens shocked.
"Yes I take it that the four of you were not alive when they did so." she said sadly.
"No we weren't." Mr. Evens said.
Thinking about it Rowena smiled and closed her eyes suddenly two moans were herd and she looked to see her parents on the ground. Giggling slightly she helped them up and instantly was put into a iron tight huge. A collection of gasp made them loose their grasp and turn around. Still they froze when they saw the four others in the room.
"Mom, dad, your parents." she said simply.
"Mom, dad?" Lily whispered shocked.
"Lily?" The Evens whispered together.
"Dad, mom?" James whispered fear in his eyes.
"James!" Shouted Mrs. Potter while Mr. Potter just smiled at his son with pride in his eyes.
Suddenly the group hugged and Rowena stepped back so that they could talk together. Gently she walked over to the fireplace and looked into it until she felt a hand on her shoulder. Turning around she found her father's father standing behind her.
"So child you're my granddaughter." he said looking her over. "Well my names Harold Potter it's a pleasure to meet you."He said brightly.
"Rowena Potter nice to meet you to sir." She said.
"Now none of that call me Grandpa now tell me what house are you in?" he asked making her laugh nervously.
"I'm a Slytherin sir." She said making him blink.
"I don't think that's ever happened with a Potter but all's well. How is the House of Snakes?" he asked.
"Well considering I do not stay in its common room it's not bad. I was originally meant for the fifth house but it was sealed so we couldn't go. Best place was Slytherin." She said.
"Really now you just taught me something." He said laughing softly. "I never knew there was a fifth house at Hogwarts." he said making her grin.
