This is the next chapter. Please read and review, love Moon x
Ripclaw tapped the rune to shut off James pensive and went to the corner to retrieve Lily's one. He put that one on the table and when Harry told him he was ready he pressed play.
I'm assuming this thing is on. Anyway I Lily Marie Angela Potter nee Evans do hereby write this my last will and testament. I am of sound mind and do this of my own free will. The harsh realities of war mean that someone as young as me has no choice but to have a will at this age. I shouldn't have to do that but we have no choice. If I have died it is the fault of our true secret keeper Peter Pettigrew. I did not agree to have him as a secret keeper but couldn't convince James to choose otherwise so I relented. I want it known now that any man who is an illegal animagus of a rat is one I cannot trust and neither should you. I hereby order that my will be read out to the head of the DMLE and Minister when they are in the same room as a lawyer. I do not trust them to not try and ignore it. At least with a lawyer there they will have to do the right thing legally. Now on to other matters:
To Alice Morgan Longbottom I leave vault thirty five. May it serve you well dear friend. I love you. Thank you for always being there for me when Harry was first born as that was rough and James didn't always understand. To be honest he's not always the most understanding of men and while it's very irritating he is lovely in other ways so I must just deal with it. You have supported my gifts and have not run from me as most others have. I always scared Professor Loveday for obvious reasons. I think I intimidated her so much it made her quit her job. Make of that what you will.
To Neville Frances Longbottom I love you so very much. I am so proud to be your godmother and love you as though you were my own son. When your mother Alice asked me to be your sworn godmother it was a no brainer. It was an easy choice for me to make. I look over you and see this beautiful yet confident toddler who knows what he wants. You are so loved my darling. I leave to you vault seventeen into which I have placed money and momentos which should be of assistance to you a lot as you grow up. Included in there is a diary with moving pictures which details your first year of life with me and your parents. Do everything you do for yourself authentically and not for anyone else. Never put the key to your happiness into the pocket of someone else.
To Severus Tobias Snape I want you to learn to get over yourself and be a better man. I forgive you for calling me a mudblood but you need to get better and do better. Congratulations on your new teaching position and being the youngest potions master in a century. I am very proud of you for that. Please learn kindness and compassion for me. Teach your classes fairly and continue to make me proud. James may say he hates you but you need to see that not everyone is James and not everyone hates you. Please do not condemn my Harry to a life of hell because James hated you. Harry is not his father and you need to see that. I leave to Severus my personal potions notes and ask that he study them thoroughly and see if he finds anything in there he thinks he could improve upon.
To Horace Vincent Slughorn my favourite teacher I leave you some notes explaining how I made Frances. As you know my favourite subjects are charms and potions and being a member of your Slug club was an honour sir. You need to learn to forgive yourself and let go. I know you're retiring and all I can say is I'm very sad that Harry will not get to experience the wonder of your classroom. You are the best potions teacher I've ever met and I've actually met a few which I never thought would happen to me but it did. I leave to you my special slug club potions journal including the potions I invented. Please check to see if I patented them and if I did not get around to doing so please do it for me. I wish to be recognised for my talents after all we all know that Severus is not the only good potioneer out there. I leave to Horace Slughorn my wonderful mentor a voucher to be used in Twilfitt and Tattings to get himself some better looking robes. He does deserve it after all. Thank you so much sir.
To Filius Flint Flitwick I leave my collection of charms books and a book containing charms I created which I task him with patenting for me. I trust you to enjoy practicing them yourself before you patent them of course. You will be rather amazed as when someone such as myself has the world's best charms master like you amazing things can happen. Thank you so very much sir for always encouraging me to do my very best. I am so sorry about James. I always tried to get him to do better and not prank so much but he would not see reason. As he cannot stop me now I leave you my copy of the marauders map and instructions on how to work it. James was so stupid that he didn't realise it could be copied. I love that man so much but sometimes he can be a right fool. You should know I was successful and have registered my form with the ministry. You are right it was a leopard. I was very proud of myself because I really did look gorgeous. I really wish I could have used my charms mastery because I know I would have made a good teacher. Maybe Harry might like one in his future who knows.
To Amelia Eva Bones I know you will miss me a lot but please be sure it will be the same it will be the same for me. You know of my issues for lack of a better phrase so I will tell you to take care of Harry whenever you see him. I know all about what is going on and if you search for records I assure you that you will find none. Think now of the colleague you think would lie to you the least and look into what they are doing. You will find it enlightening I am sure. Make sure you can get to Hogwarts in any way you can and bring a specialist with you to check out the DADA classroom for curses. Anyone who tries to stop you only wants to injure the students and is very dangerous and to be ignored. I leave to Amelia Bones my special jewellery may she wear it and remember me always.
To Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore you will fail and that is all I really need to say to you. You can't live your life always doing one thing and saying another. Life does not work like that and the more you do this the less people believe in you or care about what you are saying. Peter Pettigrew is our true secret keeper even if we tell you it's Sirius. Please insure that he is kissed by the dementors for betraying us. Your love of always using stunning charms makes everyone good die. You need to see this because if you refuse to do so the light side will dwindle and die. There are many spells which are not stunners or dark which when used in a constructive or inventive manner can stop bad people in their tracks. Sometimes the spell you think of the least can be the most effective. It is possible to stop the dark people without needing to use dark spells. I looked up to you but after you essentially left Fabian and Gideon to die you have totally lost my respect. If you don't stop pilling too much work on Minerva she too will die. Lessen her workload so she can be a good head of house. I leave to Albus Dumbledore one kilogram container of sherbet lemon sweets which are his favourite.
To Sirius Orion Black please do me a favour and apologise to Severus Snape. It will set a good example for Harry and this is most important to me which it should be for you as well. You should want to teach Harry how to be a good person and do the right thing. You should show him how to be the better person. Severus has his own problems and trust me when I tell you he doesn't need any more of them. As far as he is concerned it can't get much worse. He made his bed and he will lie in it. I would hope that he can learn to forgive James and not hate Harry because of it but I'm not sure he can. I hope he is successful at it though. Please marry that girl we all know you love and give Harry his best life until he becomes Lord Potter at age eleven. He will need your guidance most at this time. Also Harry may not like women and may prefer men but whatever he is into is fine with me and should be fine with you as well. I will not presume to speak for James but I warn anyone whatever he chooses and whatever their blood type is leave him alone. He can be with whoever he chooses and no one is entitled to try and tell him otherwise. I leave to Sirius Black vault fifty five to use as he sees fit.
To Minerva Marie McGonagall think before you act. Albus Dumbledore is not always right and I must be blunt with you because you are a fool and often get whatever it is wrong because you will not see what is right in front of your eyes. You are an awful head of house and Albus should know better than to always give you far too much to do. Stop remaining ignorant please. I hope you learn to make better choices. Do not make Harry's life difficult if he is not a Gryffindor. I will not presume to speak for James as that would be rude but I personally don't care what house Harry is in and I think you should know this. I leave to Minerva McGonagall my transfigurations notes.
Harry James Potter my darling boy always know I love you so very much. As I have done for Neville you too will find a diary with moving pictures containing our first year with you. Do whatever you do that makes you eternally happy and that will be fine with me. Become Lord Potter and marry whomever you like but please make sure they are marrying you for the right reasons. I leave all of my Evans vaults of which there are many to Harry James Potter. I leave everything else pertaining to the Potter line to him as well. In the Evans vault I have prepared a surprise for you and although it may make no sense to you now it might make sense in the future. I have always believed everything happens for a reason even if I don't know what that reason is. Something told me to leave the surprise in that vault for you so it is what I've done. Professor Loveday taught Divination in school. I just felt you should know that. I'll never stop loving you my darling boy. My heart is so very full right now. Love Mum X
As it finished Harry sobbed. He missed his parents so much and thankfully they'd thought to leave him something to remember them by. It was wonderful. What a morning.
