Harry woke up the next morning feeling refreshed for the first time in he wasn't sure how long. He couldn't believe how good he felt. He quickly got out of bed and went through his morning ritual before he headed downstairs. "Mipsy."
Mipsy popped in and looked up at Harry. "What can I help you with, Master Harry?"
Harry smiled slightly. "Can you show me the way to the family dining room so that I can eat some breakfast? While I eat I would like to talk to you."
Mipsy bobbed her head. "This way, Master Harry. I wasn't sure what you would like for breakfast so we fixed a little of everything for you to choose from. You are too thin, Master Harry, so we need to put some weight on you."
Harry blushed but sighed in resignation. He knew how hard it could be to change a House Elf's mind after they have made it up. He followed Mipsy through the house and to the family dining room. He couldn't help but smile at how nice it looked. He sat down in a chair just as food appeared on the table in front of him. His eyes widened at everything that on the table. There was bacon, sausage, biscuits, rolls, french toast, eggs, toast, different kinds of fruit, and several different kinds of juice. He shook his head in amazement and looked at Mipsy with a smile. "Why don't you have a seat so that we can talk, Mipsy?"
Mipsy's eyes widened. "Master Harry, is just like Mistress Lily used to be. Mipsy shall sit if you are sure that you want her too."
Harry nodded as he started putting a little of everything on a plate after he poured himself a glass of pumpkin juice. "I am sure, Mipsy. Now tell me is there anything that you house elves need? I am sorry that I wasn't around before now but I didn't know about this house or any other properties that I own. I will be sending word to my Godfather and having him come here so that he will be safe until I can get his name cleared. I would like several other bedrooms set up in case I invite some people over so that they have a place to sleep. I just found out that I and three others will be doing things in order to better the Wizarding world and restoring Hogwarts to it's former glory. Besides that I want to train as much as I can because I have a feeling sooner rather than later I will be facing the one who killed my parents and I want to be prepared. Is there a room set up for me to train in and just out of curiosity is there a potions lab in this Manor?"
Mipsy bobbed her head up and down enthusiastically. "There is a room for you to be able to train in, Master Harry. There is also a home gym in the Manor. There is two potions labs as well as a couple of gardens and a greenhouse out back that have potions ingredients growing in them. The House Elf that tends to the gardens and greenhouse is Remmy. Is there anything else you would like to know, Master Harry?"
Harry chewed the food in his mouth as he nodded. "How many elves do I have in this house? Are you all comfortable wherever you sleep or would you like new sleeping quarters?"
"We are happy where we are at, Master Harry. There are a total of elevn house elves for this Manor. There are two in the kitchen, one that does the gardening, three that clean the upstairs, one that does the laundry, and three that clean the downstairs. Plus there is me and I am the Head Elf for the Manor." Mipsy replied.
Harry smiled. "Alright I think that is it for now. I will be heading to Gringotts here soon so when I get back I would like a tour of the Manor so that I don't get lost. Also like I said earlier I would like some of the other bedrooms readied in case some other people come back with me."
Mipsy got off her chair. "Alright, Master Harry, I shall see to it. Mipsy will see you later."
Harry couldn't help but chuckle after Mipsy popped away. He knew that she would take care of everything that he had requested. He wandlessly checked the time and saw that it was ten minutes til ten. After he took one last drink of his pumpkin juice he stood up and thought about how he was going to get to Gringotts that morning. As he was thinking about his options Fawkes flashed in and he couldn't help but smile. Without a word he grabbed onto Fawkes tail and seconds later he was inside Gringotts. "Thank you, Fawkes." After Fawkes flashed away he walked to where he saw Silverblade standing. "Good morning, Master Goblin Silverblade, may your enemies never know what hit them."
Silverblade grinned. "May your vaults overflow with gold, young Lord Potter. I will take you back to Director Ragnok's office where he and the others are already gathered. It seems that the other three and their guardians were all in a hurry to be here and find out what is going on. They got here about three minutes ago."
Harry nodded. "I would have been here sooner but I actually slept in for once and then I had to eat breakfast. Thank you for meeting me personally, Silverblade."
Silverblade nodded and led the way back to Ragnok's office. "It was no problem, Harry. Did everything go alright at Potter Manor?"
Harry smiled slightly. "It went very well. My head house elf Mipsy is getting some rooms for other people in case they decide to come and stay with me. I haven't take a tour of the Manor yet but I plan on getting one when I get back. I went straight to bed last night when I got to Potter Manor." He nodded in respect at Ragnok when he entered his office and then nodded at the others in the office. "Good morning, everyone."
Ragnok nodded at Harry. "Good morning, Harry. Harry I would like to introduce you to Luna Lovegood who is Rowena Ravenclaw's heir, Susan Bones who is Godric Gryffindor's heir, and finally Daphne Greengrass who is Helga Hufflepuff's heir. With them our their parents and/or guardians. Xeno Lovegood is Luna's father. Amelia Bones is Susan's aunt and also the head of the DMLE. Daniel and Miranda Greengrass who are Daphne's parents. Everyone this is young Lord Harry James Potter the head of house to the Potter, Black, Le Fey, Emry, Slytherin, Pendragon, Matheson, and Davidson families."
At that everyone's eyes opened wide but it was Amelia Bones who said "Are you telling us, Ragnok, that Harry Potter is actually the one who runs our world? We have been looking for the Emry, Le Fey and Pendragon heir for forever and have never found him or her! He has the right to veto any law on the books and he has the right to come up with new laws! Not to mention he is the Potter, Black, and Slytherin heir along with two lesser houses. Dear Merlin, he could change our world!"
Ragnok nodded and smiled showing his teeth. "Oh I know that he can, Amelia. However that is not why I have summoned you all here. I have summoned you all because of something else but something which will be just as startling. Long before Salazar Slytherin left Hogwarts Rowena Ravenclaw had a vision about a dark prophecy which told her that they would be needed in the future to help restore the greatness to Hogwarts and to reunite the four houses during a chaotic time. The four founders worked together to come up with a spell that would allow their spirits to come to their heirs and bind to them in order to help and guide them to do what needed to be done. Susan, Daphne, Luna, and Harry are the heirs and I know that Salazar has already been visiting Harry but if I were to take a guess I would say that Godric, Rowena, and Helga have also been visiting their heirs to get them started in training in what they need to know. When Harry showed up here we had found some disturbing information out."
Ameila frowned at that but before she could say anything Daniel Greengrass demanded "What kind of disturbing information, Ragnok?"
Ragnok shot a look at Harry and after getting a nod from him he looked back at the adults in his office. "Albus Dumbledore sealed the Potter's wills illegally. He did this because if he wouldn't have then things would have come to light that he didn't want to. Dumbledore sent Harry to the one place that both wills stipulated he was not to go because of the people's hate for anything not normal. He also set up a stipend to be given to Harry's guardians which they did not spend one sickle on him. Harry was emancipated yesterday as his right by the laws that state when the last member of a family can become head of that family when they reach thirteen years old. Young Harry didn't even know of his inheritance or his heritage until I told him last night. With Harry's permission I have set about reclaiming the funds that the Dursley's have gotten over the years as well as writing up a letter informing them that they owe back rent for the last thirteen years. Since Harry also owns Grunning Drills we are auditing it since Vernon Dursley works there and if anything is found like we think there will be Dursley will be fired and brought up on charges. It also came to light last night that Sirius Black was not the Potter's Secret Keeper and that one Peter Pettigrew was which Dumbledore knew since he witnessed both wills."
Amelia swore. "I will need a copy of those wills, Ragnok. I will make sure that Sirius Black is cleared of all charges. Although in hall honesty, Lord Potter-Black-Le Fey-Emry-Pendragon-Slytherin, you could make a statement and declare that he is clear of all charges and there isn't a thing that Dumbledore or anyone else could do since you are who you are. The Ministry of Magic has always known that one day the Le Fey, Emry, and Pendragon heir would be among us and that he or she would be the one running things either from behind the scenes or doing it in public."
Harry groaned and shook his head. "I hate attention, Madam Bones. I get so much of it with being the Boy-Who-Lived that it drives me crazy because I don't want it. Nobody can understand that I don't like being famous. I don't like the attention I get but yet nobody does anything to make sure that I can live in peace in this world. Nobody sees me for me except maybe Hermione Granger. Even though Ronald Weasley is one of my best friends I do know that at first he saw me for the Boy-Who-Lived instead of just Harry and that he sometimes does. I get that I am everyone's icon but that doesn't mean that I have to like it. And now there is no way I am going to be able to be just Harry! By the way does someone here want to tell me what in the hell the Ministry was thinking when they decided that it would be a great idea to start Tri-Wizard Tournament up again and that it should be held at Hogwarts this year? I learned of this last night in my chat with Salazar while I slept. Seeming as there are now four heirs to Hogwarts and we all go to the school we will be making sure that the tournament is completely safe. I don't care what anyone says there will be precautions taken and I want Auror's on hand through the whole damn thing! I already know what the tasks are and while we may not be able to change them we will make sure that whoever ends up in the tournament is kept safe. I will not and I'm pretty sure the other three will not stand by and let someone needlessly die just so that others can have some damn entertainment!"
Daphne Greengrass' eyes widened in shock. "Are they out of their bloody damn minds? Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows that someone will try to enter Potter into the tournament? He hasn't been safe at Hogwarts in the last three years as it is!"
At that Amelia stiffened. "What are you talking about, Miss Greengrass?"
Daphne shot Harry an apologetic look which he waved off as she said "The first year the Headmaster had something in the school and warned us that the third floor corridor was off limits unless we wanted to die a painful death. Later on that year we not only had a Mountain Troll in the school which Potter faced and came out on top but at the end of the school year he ended up facing Quirrel who apparently was possessed and he could have died! Second year we had a basilisk loose and he was the one who killed it but he was bitten. Then last year we had the Dementors and they seemed to go after him constantly. This year apparently we are holding the Tri-Wizard tournament so I don't doubt that he will be in danger once again! What do Lovegood, Bones, and I need to do, Director Ragnok, in order to claim our rights as the other three founders heirs? There is no way in hell that we are going to stand by and watch as Potter gets signaled out once again. It is high time that someone stands beside him that he knows will support his choices."
Ragnok smiled a shark tooth smile. "I am glad that you asked, Miss Greengrass. You three will need to take the inheritance test and then become emancipated yourselves. Your guardians and/or parents can still have say in what you do but the only way you will be able to make sure that nobody can contest the fact that together you four own Hogwarts you will need to be seen legally as adults in the Wizarding world and the only way for that to happen is to become emancipated. Then the four of you together can finally make the much needed changes to Hogwarts that are needed. You will be able to add classes, have classes that you don't think need to be at Hogwarts closed, change the way classes are done. You have final say of everything including hiring and firing Professors or Headmasters. Nobody will be able to tell you what you can and can't do while at Hogwarts as long as it comes to the things you want to change or add to at Hogwarts. Not only do you four own Hogwarts but you also own Hogsmeade."
Harry's eyes widened but then they narrowed. "Is it possible for me to change my classes then? Who would I have to talk to about that? I want to drop Divination and take up Arithmancy and Ancient Runes. I really am tired of Trelawney predicting my death every class. And please everyone call me Harry. I think that if we are all going to be working together then we should all be on first name basis."
At that Amelia's eyes narrowed even as she nodded. "You would need to send word to your Head of House and let her know that you want to change electives but then again you may not have to since you are one of the heirs and own ¼th of Hogwarts. You will also have to take a test to see if you could go into the fourth year class or if you would need to be in the third year class for those two classes."
Harry couldn't help but smile sheepishly. "I could probably pass my OWLs and NEWTs in those two subjects as well as several others already. Salazar has been teaching me everything and anything in my sleep as well as dueling, hand to hand, parsalmagic, warding, curse breaking, and some other things. He has also given me a list of classes that use to be taught but are no longer taught at Hogwarts. He is very passionate about making sure that Hogwarts is restored to her former glory and then some."
Luna who had been silent up til then nodded and dreamily said "Rowena has been doing the same things but she has also been helping me hone my seer abilities. She wants to make sure that I am able to help Harry succeed where others have failed. She wants not only Hogwarts restored but she wants the Wizarding world restored as well. She wants to make sure that the four houses come back together like they once were so that we can defeat the darkness coming once and for all."
Susan nodded. "Godric has been teaching me pretty much the same things plus a lot of extra including the animagus transformation into more than one animal. He thinks that we will all need it this coming year. He said that we would be stronger together than we would be apart."
Daphne smirked. "Helga has said the same thing about all of us being stronger together than we are apart. She has been teaching me everything plus Healing because she said I would need it this coming school year. I think that we need to do the emancipation in order to make sure that nobody can take from us what is ours. If we are going to get our fellow classmates out of this coming school year alive then we need to do everything in our power to do so."
Amelia sighed and exchanged looks with Daniel, Xeno, and Miranda before she said "We will let you all become emancipated under the understanding that you talk to us about what you are planning. You four may be politically and magically strong but you are still young. It won't hurt to have an adults view on things. Besides we may be able to come up with something that you four could forget."
Harry, Susan, Daphne, and Luna exchanged longs looks and then all nodded at once in agreement to Amelia's words. They all four knew that what she said was the truth. Besides they figured that it wouldn't hurt to have some people help them so that they weren't alone in what was to come.
