„I will unshrank them later, we have to go now! Take my hand, please" So she magic beamed us into an alley. I became sick. „What was that?" „That was apparation, a form of transportation." „Oh, I hope I can avoid that in the future!" McGonagall looked at me. „You will get used to it. Come along." We got to a pub or something. „Where are we." „Thats London. We are going to Diagon alley, the magical shopping district. We have an appointment with Gringotts, the bank, to verify your claim." „What claim?" „You will see in Gringotts. You're family will also be there. There is a will of your mother to consider and then we will decide were you will be placed and who you're guardians will be." „Wait!" I stopped „you said, I can decide where I will live. What the fuck do you mean with a will of my mother. Aunt Cassie did not tell me anything about something like that. Why should there be a will of my mother and why does this so called family was not there before like when Cassie died?" „Please reconsider your language. Whoever your guardian will be. They will not like how you talk, when everything is like I think. There was not a Volant since Alya Volant and she married. So there are many options who you're parents could be." „You must be wrong. My mothers name was Héloise Volant." She looked at me over her glasses „All will be explained, when we are at Gringotts, now hurry. We have an appointment at eleven. It is 10.50." We got to a little room with a wall. She tapped some bricks at the wall and this wall opened! We entered a large, amazing alley. I must be dreaming, that can't be happening. I had to hurry. McGonagall was walking really fast and I did not want to get lost. We were going to a big building in the center of the alley. „Gringotts is the safest bank in all of Europe, be warned, no one could be that stupid to rob this bank." McGonagall told me and I read the warning myself. We entered Gringotts. „What are they?" I asked „Goblins and please be on your best behavior. There is a history and you do not want to offend a Goblin!" „When I am not on my best behavior?" I laughed. She looked at me sternly and got to some goblin. „Good Greeting. May your gold overflow and your enemies get under the earth. We have an appointment to verify a heritage claim!" She said. What a strange greeting. „Good day, Lady McGonagall. May your wealth increase and your enemies tremble with fear. Thats the girl?" He looked at me. „Stumblework will bring you to the heritage office." Some goblin, stumblework came along. We followed him to a room. „I need a drop of blood please." „Uh, What?!" „It is just a drop of blood on this paper. It will show your ancestors." „What? How can this work. I know who my mother is. Héloise Volant. I do not know who my father is. So how would you know?" „Just drop a little blood on the Pergament and you will see." I looked at her, maybe she is mad, but she looked at me expectantly. So I.. I just did it. And I looked at this paper and there were lines growing with names what?. „What?" I asked out loud. McGonagall smiled and said. „Yes, this is your family."
