"Wait here I will be back soon. If someone comes don't tell them I was here." She nodded and with that he apparated away. Harry found himself in Diagon alley. Not wanting to attract attention to himself he put the hood of the cloak on and headed into the bank. He spotted a goblin and headed to him. "I need to speak to Griphook." He said. The goblin looked up and recognition settled on his face. "I will fetch him." With that Harry headed to the carts that transport you to and from the vaults. After waiting a moment Harry saw Griphook heading his way. "Ah Harry." He said bowing slightly. Harry returned the bow and indicated the cart. They got on the cart and started for the vault. "What can I do for you Harry?" Griphook asked. "I am looking for a bracelet, ring or amulet to use for something." "Okay." Finally arriving at the vault Griphook unlocked the door and Harry went straight in to the back where he saw a casket containing the items in question.

Harry opened the casket and was again amazed at the amount of jewellery it contained. Harry started going through them one by one. They all had some note attached indicating some or other feature of the item. It took Harry about an hour to choose an item. No note. That is strange.

The amulet had a diamond in the middle with different gems surrounding it. The chain was made from different types of metals. They must have been magically connected as there was no join marks. Harry felt the weight if the item and realised that it wasn't weighing anything. I will have to ask Merlin about this. Harry said to himself.

They left the vault and once outside Harry bade Griphook good by and apparated out of the bank to the trunk.

Griphook stood there mouth hanging open. "Impossible." Well if there is one that I don't mind that can do that it is him. He smiled and headed for his office.

"Merlin!" Harry called as he appeared in the trunk "Yes Harry." Merlin answered rounding the corner. "What can you tell me about this amulet?" Harry asked handing the amulet to him. Merlin took the amulet and recognition became evident on his face.

He stared at the amulet and weighed it in his hand. He stroked each gem and metal inlay separately.

Then he began. "Amulet of the Sorceress, which is the only name it has ever had. It basically amplifies a lot of things like you senses and mostly mental abilities. It even adds stamina. Unfortunately it will only inhibit you."

He said and then looked at Harry and he recognised something else. "It is not for you. Ah I see. You love her don't you? Yes you do. You have not told her yet. Well you see if you give her this she will know it. That is the curse of the gift. Everybody in the wizarding world knows this amulet as there is a legend attached to it." "Explains why there was no note." Merlin frowned and continued. "It is a most wondrous gift and you must own it to give it away. And then you can only give it if you really love the person." Merlin was smiling or rather beaming. "And now Medusa will be my slave for a day for loosing the bet." This time Harry frowned. "You should get ready and when Medusa comes tell her as well we will be moving away from this house upon my return. So basically you are telling me that I will only be able to give it to her if I truly love her." Harry continued changing the subject back." "Yes and she must love you with all her heart to be able to accept it. Oh yeah if she puts it on it will disappear. It is still there just inside her. Anyway what is the story of moving." "I will tell you when Medusa is back as well" Harry said waving the question away.

He apparated to Ginny and found her asleep on her bed. He sat next to her and started stroking her hair. He lost time of how long he was doing that before getting up and finishing the charms on the door as well as her bed and the drapes. When he finished he saw she was watching him.

"Hey sleepy head you slept well?" She nodded and patted the bed next to her. He lay down next to her. "There is something I want to tell you." She said looking into his eyes. Brown and green started melting together until it was impossible to see the original colours. Harry put his hand out and hooked some stray hair behind her ear he started withdrawing his had but she gripped it and held to her face. He caressed her cheek and smiled at her removing the amulet with the other hand.

"I found something that I really want you to have. Originally I wanted to make it a Portkey but is too beautiful to serve only that purpose." He showed her the amulet and she gasped "That is the amulet of the Sorceress." She said awestruck.

"So I've been told and I want you to have it." She just sat there knowing the legend and some of the implications but none of the other properties of the amulet. "Harry, are you sure you want to give it to me? I mean." Harry nodded and kissed her. He did not know how, what or why but he did. Where he got the courage or if something told him to just do that he did. It did not last long but that did not make it short.

He withdrew from her and said. "Does that answer you question?" She nodded and smiled. Harry sat behind her and placed the amulet around her neck. He watched the amulet as there was no clasp on it. He put the ends together and they connected. With that the amulet disappeared. Harry then sank to the ground to be on his knees in front of her. Taking both her hands in his he said. "Ever since your first year you became more than the sister of a friend, you became a friend. Then you became more by being at my side last year. I started feeling responsible towards you. Seeing you unhappy made me unhappy. I started loving you. I always did love you but now I am in love as well. Will you please be my girlfriend Ginny Weasley?"

"Yes Harry Potter I will be honoured to be you girlfriend and she leaned forward to kiss him again. This time they made it last.

The book read:

Although Mages and sorceresses are only myth today it is said that the last wizard that was powerful enough to be classified according to legend was Merlin. It is said that the amulet if the sorceress was made before the mysterious disappearance of the mages. A mage forged it after finding what he considered a soul mate which was unheard of for this generation. Although there is not much known of the origin of the amulet even less is known of the properties of the amulet. First of all the amulet can only be given to someone by the owner who must be the owner Amulet of the Mage as well. There is nothing known of this amulet except that it is supposed to be a spiritual thing but this writer had no luck in finding anything of this amulet. Not even a picture. Second he must be wholeheartedly in love with the one to receive the amulet. He must hold a secret from the person to receive the gift. Both must have seen what no one else has seen as well as shared this experience. Both must be from strong blood lines. Only a female can wear the amulet. If any of these questions answers in the negative then the amulet will not accept the recipient. If the amulet rejects someone it will always be visible. If the amulet accepts the bearer it will only appear by its own will – if it has a will. The amulet can only be removed in death and then only the bearer of the amulet of the mage can do so.

Some of the known properties of the amulet are that it increases stamina and boosts mental capabilities. The amulet gives some form of protection against the elements whether it is lightning, fire, cold, wind and even lesser magic's. The bearer will find herself with a knack for learning new things and will be surprised by her discoveries especially since she will retain this knowledge. The worst thing that can happen to a new bearer is to already have a thirst for knowledge. As you can see there is not much known of the amulet. If you are the lucky bearer of this priceless and selfless gift then please record you findings and send it to the writer. The amulet has been lost for millennia. The last known bearer disappeared after bearing a son who was a squib in a prestigious family.

The remarkable thing about this amulet is that everyone in the wizarding world knows of it but at the time I am writing this there are no one that can tell me anything about it except they saw a photo of it.

After reading the passage Ginny sat shocked holding her breast. In all the other books she could find in the house some mentioned the amulet in name and that the amulet is a lost legend.

How can I accept this. although Ginny knew and understood her feelings for Harry she also knew that he did not know of the amulet or what it represented. What if he would rather give it to someone else if he knew the properties. Well according to the book it would only accept me if he really wanted me to have it. I will tell him in anyway.

With her resolve set Ginny headed for the next book that she never knew was at home. What she did not know was that it has just begun.
