CHAPTER 4:- THE VAULT

Harry looked down at the three envelopes and stared at the writing the

Third, one looked like it was from Dumbledore, but the other two he

Did not recognise the writing.

Harry decided to open the first one that he did not recognise, it said to

Harry James potter only to be given in the event of our death on his

17th birthday.

Harry swallowed hard and opened it and read aloud so Hermione could hear him

Dear Harry

First, let us say that we love you and we always have but if you are

Reading this then we have died and most likely the bastard tom riddle

Has killed us and somehow we made sure that you survived! Now Harry that

You have reached your seventeenth birthday your inheritance is given to

You we leave you godrics hollow which is our beloved home and where you

Were born of course, also we leave you the potter fortune of at the time

Of our writing this letter is worth around 2.5 billion galleons so now

It must be a hell of a lot minus what has been paid to the staff and stuff.

You may be wondering how and why you have so much money, well it is really

A long story, but this is the quick version your probably aware by now

That you have abilities that are uncommon and are very powerful this is

Because you are the air of my forefather GODERIC GRIFFINDOR and on your

Mother lily's side Merlin. These two bloodlines are why you have

Firstly so much money but secondly so much power, Harry you are what is

Know as a grand mage there have only ever been three in the history of

Our world two are you great forefathers previously mentioned and the

Third was Salazar slytherin these powers come with great responsibility

So use them wisely son we love you always

James & Lilly (Mum dad) xxxx

Harry looked up and across to Hermione who looked shocked but also

Happy, he asked her why she was smiling, oh it's because I know why 'you

Know who' could not kill you now as a baby!

Why asked Harry? Well began Hermione it's because of your being a grand

Mage they are protected by elemental magic much stronger and older than

Anything voldermort can do Hermione said in almost a whisper.

She looked at the blank expression on his face and said I will explain

It later to you when we get to black manor; Harry just nodded at this

And opened up the other one

He did not recognise whom this one was from but it had a stamp on the back

That said ollivander wands! Harry looked at it and wounded what this

Letter was all about; Harry read the letter once again like before to

Hermione

Dear lord black

I have waited over a thousand years to be able to tell you the following

Information I was a great friend of the wizard Merlin who had though the

Use of prophecy learned that you would be born and that you would be a

Grand mage; However there are none alive who could train you so Merlin and a certain

Nicolas flammel created the philosophers stone and used it to make the

Elixir of life.

I was given the task of waiting for you and when you were ready to train

You, unfortunately the stone was destroyed four and a half years ago by

Albus Dumbledore and Nicolas flammel to stop lord voldermort from using

It to regain his power.

As a result I have used a very ancient bit of magic and transferred the

Knowledge to a witch that I believe you know, although she was not keen

At first, I convinced her it was for the best.

Her name is nymphadora tonks and she is a relative of yours know I am

Led to believe, from a letter I had from albus Dumbledore yesterday,

Anyway she will be training you as I have very little time left.

I do hope that the time ahead is not spent dwelling too far in the past!

Good luck lord black

Mr Ollivander

Harry thought it was amazing that Mr Ollivander had firstly known Merlin

And secondly he had waited over 1,000 years to just train me; to only

Have the opportunity taken from him because of me and voldermort craving

The stone for his own gain.

Hermione looked at Harry and said Harry this is a lot to take in do you

Want to leave and come back tomorrow? Harry didn't know what to do, he

Wanted to go and see the new manor he now owned but he also knew that he

Had too open the other letter.

Harry sighed and gave Hermione's hand a squeeze, she smiled and Harry

Opened the last and final letter it was his Hogwarts letter.

It read as follows

Dear Mr Potter

School normally starts September the first but this year I have changed the rules a little.

I will explain, as you know normally The head boy and girl is only chosen from the seventh year students but

I have decided that this and next year if you are willing to accept it the position of head boy is yours, along with this position of trust, Comes the benefits of your own common room and bedroom along with the Head girl whom I have already informed and she has accepted, and if I am not mistaken she is probably some where near you right as you areReading this. as it is your fellow Gryffindor miss Hermione granger.

yours sincerley

Albus Dumbledor

order of merlin first class ect...

Congratulations Harry (Harry looked at Hermione who had a grin on her

Face as big as if she had stuck a banana in her mouth sideways) Harry

Put down the letter for a moment and hugged Hermione and asked her why

She did not tell him earlier.

Well Hermione replied I was going to congratulate you when you burst

Into my lap from the fire this afternoon but I have been pulled this way

And that I don't know which way is up but you will accept it wont you Harry?

Harry replied of course I will Hermione I cant believe it I am head boy

And your head girl we definitely need to tell Ron about us now said

Harry, He went back to the letter and continued reading it P.s :- as a

Result of you and miss granger being head girl and boy I think it wise
