We interrupt this broadcast to bring you this bulletin...
Small note that chapter four and this chapter were edited because of my blonde-ness.
We now re turn you to your story.
Chapter Five
Dear Mr. Harry James Potter,
I was in formed by the goblins of Gringott's that you now have full control over my family vaults. I was wondering if you would be willing to have a meeting with me so that we may have a talk.
Sincerely,
Lucius Malfoy
Dear Harry,
It has come to my attention that you have some how taken over my vault, or so the the goblins of Gringott's have informed me. I demand that you hand my vault back over to me. I also demand that you return to Hogwarts or the Burrow, it is not safe for you to be out on your own.
Sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore
"Klisp," Harry called.
"Yes master," the elf said after she had appeared.
"Is everyone up yet?"
"No, sir, everyone is still asleep."
"Can you have breakfast ready in about thirty minutes?"
"Yes, master."
"Good wake everyone up and let them know that I want them present at breakfast, serve it it the dining room off of the kitchen. Let the children that are in the nursery sleep til later. I will let you have who ever is in charge of the nursery deem when they should be ready to get up."
"Yes, master," Klisp said before disappearing.
Harry got up and got dressed and contimplated the two letters he had received already. He knew it was only a matter of time before everyone got their owls in to him. And glory would be his when he had the meetings with them. Harry headed down to breakfast with the two letters in hand.
"My Lord, can you please tell me what you plan for all of us to do," Narcissa asked.
"Well technically it is Your Highness or Majesty, but among family it is only Harry. When we are among others then we must maintain formalities. Now as to what you are going to be doing. I am going to hire a tutor for Isabella and the other children that are of age to start their learning. As for everyone else, well what would you like to do?"
"Well Harry, I think that a shopping trip is in order, that is if we are to be considered a part of the royal family," Narcissa said.
"I believe that Narcissa is correct. That is to say if you plan on taking over the wizarding world we must all look the part," said Athena.
"I hate to bust your bubbles, but Harry is not yet able to go out in public. He is after all considered an Azkaban escapee," Bellatrix said being the voice of reason.
"Yes, however, we can have someone come and take you measurements in the privacy of your home," said Narcissa.
"How about the privacy of Gringott's? I have business there this morning."
"That can be arranged too. Are we going to be authorized to make purchases or not," Narcissa said.
"Of course, have whoever is going to take my measurements bring the bill so that I can get the goblins to pay them from one of my vaults," Harry said with a sigh.
"Klisp," Harry said after he had finished eating his breakfast.
"Yes Master," said the house elf, once she had appeared.
"Do we have any Floo Powder?"
"Yes Master, it is put up," Klisp replied to the question.
"Well it is going to be needed today. Everyone is going to go out and get a new wardrobe."
"Yes, Master."
"Okay I am going to be leaving now, if anyone needs anything they will call for you. Goodbye Klisp, everyone," Harry said as he grasped the port key. "Gringott's." Harry disappeared.
"Harry your here. I have some things to go over with you," said Griphook as soon as Harry had appeared.
"What all did we need to discuss, Griphook?"
"Cornelius Fudge, Remus Lupin, Arthur Weasley, and Troy Umbridge are requesting an audience with you," said Griphook.
"Be honest, who is demanding," Harry asked with a malicious grin.
"Fudge," said the goblin.
"Suprising, I would have thought, but it makes no matter," Harry muttered. "Ok first thing is first, all those who were brought to the family yesterday are going shopping today. They will be bringing someone by to take my measurements and get the bill paid," Harry told Griphook.
"That can be taken care of easily."
"Second, I will see Remus Lupin now if he is here," said Harry.
"He is, I will send him in right away," said Griphook. Griphook left to get Remus.
Harry took a few minutes to survey the goblins, who were watching his accounts, as they worked. He watched them and to an untrained eye what they were doing could be compared with the muggle saying "running around like a chicken with it's head cut off", but Harry knew they were very organized in what they were doing.
Griphook came back followed by Remus Lupin dressed in shabby robes, as always. Harry, Remus, and Griphook all took a seat at the table that had been used by all the goblins the day before.
"Remus Lupin you requested an audience with me," Harry said sounding far too official.
"Yes, I was told that in order to get the stipend that the Ministry allows me from my family vaults I have to speak with you. I was told that it would ultimately be your decision," Remus said.
"The Ministry has laws that does not allow a werewolf to claim their rightful inheiritance," said Griphook.
"Very well. Griphook, make all items in the Lupin vaults, be it money or other objects, available to Mr. Remus Lupin. He will not have a limit on how many galleons he is allowed to take out of the vault, nor will there be any other restrictions placed upon him," said Harry.
"Very well it shall be done," said Griphook, who moved to talk to another goblin.
"How did you get out of Azkaban Harry," Remus asked him quietly.
"The goblins of Gringott's. They also helped me with many other things. The first thing that I want you to do after you get out of this meeting is to go and get money and a deed for one of the properties your family ownes. The next thing you are to do is to go shopping and get a brand new wardrobe. The third is to make sure that you comission someone to make you your potion for the next year. The fourth is to go home and get some rest, if the housing you choose is dirty send an owl to Griphook and he will make sure it gets to me. I will make sure that I have some house elves come and clean up. I would ask you to come to the castle but it is maddness there and currently all the women and children are out in Diagon Alley on a shopping spree."
"You have changed cub," Remus said as he got Harry in a hug.
"I grew up. Tell the others that believed in me that if they want to get in contact with me then they should come to Gringott's and ask to see Griphook," Harry told the wolf.
"I will and we need to have a longer visit as soon as you have gotten things straightened out," Remus told the young wizard who stood before him.
"That can be done, now I think you should begin you mission for today," Harry said as he hugged Remus goodbye.
"Griphook can a message be sent to Albus Dumbledore and Lucius Malfoy that I will see them later today?"
"Yes, I will have those sent off directly. Have you decided who you would like to see next?"
"Troy Umbridge, I think."
"I will bring him in," Griphook said and left to get him.
A/N:
A bit of a cliff there, but my main purpose was that I felt the chapter was going on for far too long. I want to take this time to explain a few things.
#1
Some of the Vaults that Harry took over, i.e. Bones and Greyback he was able to take over b/c their was no standing Head of House. In my story the Bones are all women, there are no men or boy Bones, at the moment. Greyback (I think that is the name) the Head of House would be a werewolf, which the Ministry does not allow in my story. Hence the reason that Remus is no able to have control over his vaults.
#2
Did anyone notice that there is a little history on the Lord of Azkaban?
It is a few chapters back. I was thinking about making that a part of Harry's never ceasing responsibilities. I can still write it in but I actually wanted the opinion of my readers on this.
#3
Which brings up the third point...
How do y'all think this story in going, to me is seems a bit mellow. Like there could be more drama... Don't know maybe I am just used to alot of drama going on around me...
#4
I really did wonder how I was going to handle some of the confrontations that Harry has with various people, and at the moment they are rather mello...
The reason is that the place and what is going on at the time dictates how those around him will respond to him... How would you treat someone who holds your purse strings?
How would you treat the Head of your House?
My point exactly... I rest my case your honor.
Read and Review so I can know you opinions...
