Here is the next chapter. I hope you like it. Please read and review love Hermione xxx
"I will be heading back to the Dursley residence soon however I would like an inheritance test before I go there. Also please tell me how to access my new homes and when they can be warded and put under the fidelious" said Harry smiling as he was deep in thought.
"Well first things first then. Here please use this blood quill to legally sign these documents and once you do that they will disappear to be filed with the right departments. Once they have arrived in those departments the money will be taken from your accounts and the homes will be yours. When that is done the rune above the door will flash red in colour" he said sliding a document and blood quill across the table to Harry so he could sign the purchase agreements for the houses. It was forty one thousand galleons for the muggle home and five hundred thousand galleons for the wizarding home. He was impressed by the amounts and was shocked to hear it didn't even dent his funds in the bank. He signed and as soon as the rune flashed red two boxes appeared there with a watch in one of them and a ring in the other.
"Ok so for the Brixton property you will wear this watch and I will also give you a key in a moment. If you do not feel like using your key you may tap your watch with your finger or wand and say take me home and you will arrive in that house in a moments notice. Now because of the various wards we will put on the house you may use magic in it without it being registered or detected by anyone. This means that when you portkey into the house even if it doesn't take you always to the same part of the home no one outside will notice. The same goes for the ring and the magical property however you will not get a key for that one. We have charmed the ring so it may never be removed by anyone else from your person. The same wards will be on this house as well as the fidelious which will of course be on both homes. The warding and such will be ready in one week and then we will take you through them and you can then move in whenever you wish. I should have said earlier that anything you do in these homes can never be restricted or monitored because you own them and the wards we are placing there will essentially take you off the magical grid. Now is there anything else you want to ask me?" he asked as Harry looked at him thoughtfully for a moment.
"I want the muggle home connected to the floo network and it's password is to be Brixton House. So I should say Brixton House in the floo clearly to get there should the need to do that arise. After I am done here I will visit both homes momentarily at some stage however I would like permission to be able to floo directly into the bank and go to Diagon Alley from here. I only ask as should I do so from The Leaky Cauldron all the time it will raise suspicions where they are neither necessary nor wanted. Essentially too many questions would be asked of me which I'm not prepared to answer! Also please tell me how to get to the Leaky Cauldron from my Brixton home should I want to do so by foot" he said as Griphook smiled at him. He was smart indeed and asking all the right kinds of questions most people didn't think of.
"Yes well given who you are for a fee of twenty five galleons a year you may floo here at any time day or night. We are all about money here hence the fee. I can tell you that from Brixton you should get the muggle Tube to Victoria Station and once you get there leave the station and the Leaky Cauldron is a five minute walk from there. I would advise you to withdraw one hundred thousand galleons and transfer it into pounds and on a cheque so you may use it and open a bank account. It will be five hundred thousand pounds and it means you may have a bank account in the muggle world you can access when you select to live there. I would not advise having Mr Draconis Abraxas Malfoy to visit you in that home as he may not be comfortable in the muggle world. I am just guessing this however he may be fine there we don't know until he tells us. Do you want me to get you a cheque for the amount I mentioned earlier?" he asked as Harry face palmed. Why had he not thought of this himself. It did seem like the most logical thing to do.
"I can't believe I didn't think of this myself however now that you mention it yes please see to it that it is done and I will open a bank account on my way home. I meant to ask this earlier but over everything I forgot. Is there a way to remove the trace on my wand without it being noticed?" he asked as Griphook clicked his fingers a weird looking long box with a needle pointing out of the top of it appearing before them.
"Humour me please and place your wand in this slot here and now prick your finger on the needle. Afterwards I will heal you and then we shall have the results from the test this machine does" he said smiling. Harry did as instructed and pricked his finger feeling sore for a moment until it was healed the box glowed blue and his wand was levitated out of it spinning around rapidly before settling back in the box as a percentage appeared above it which said fifty percent.
"What does the percentage here mean?" asked Harry curiously.
"This Mr Potter means that this wand is only fifty percent compatible with you however as you have it I would hazard a guess that it was the only wand in Ollivander's which did not react badly with you which is probably why he sold it to you. You may find that big spells come easily to you where smaller more normal commonly used spells are very hard for you. What we can do is scan this wand from all angles and have an exact replica made for you which has no trace on it and is made from the materials you select. It will be a custom wand and will cost you two hundred galleons but it truly is worth it. Would you like to do that?" he asked as Harry then smiled brightly.
"You are so right. It took me two weeks to learn the lumos spell where everyone else had learned it in a day. I was so embarrassed as everyone thought I was useless at magic afterwards and were confused by my great display of bigger spells later on when I needed to use them for protection reasons. Please do it now" he said as different cores and woods were selected. He actually chose for himself an ebony wood for the wand and a thestral tail hair soaked in phoenix tears for the core. The wand was completed a died to resemble exactly his old wand which was snapped in half incinerating at once. Harry held his new wand and called out lumos almost being blinded by the light it offered to him. Once the spell had been held for a while it petered out to an acceptable level where it looked normal like everyone else's and not overpowered as it had two minutes ago. No one would be able to tell this wand was not legit even Ollivander because of the goblin methods employed in the crafting of the wand. The cheque was prepared and Harry settled in for his inheritance test. He was presented with a bowl and blade with a quill in the bowl. He was instructed to slice his palm and allow some blood to drip onto the quill inside the bowl. After ten minutes the quill floated out of the bowl and towards a parchment piece on the table where it began writing and eventually came to a stop.
"Ok Mr Potter I will now read you the results. You have inherited from four different families. You have obviously inherited from the Potter line which you knew about anyway so I won't repeat that to you. You have also inherited from the Evans line. You inherited two vaults. One with two million galleons in it and the second vault containing the Evans family grimoire and various items such as jewels, wands, potions and clothing etc." he said pausing to see that Harry had understood all he had said so far. When it was clear that he did understand he then continued on with the reading.
"You inherited from the Black family and pending what happens to Sirius Black you will be the new Lord Black as he has stated you should be the new Lord Black should anything untoward happen to him where he is not eligible to care for you any longer. You have inherited two vaults the first with all the possessions, the magical family grimoire and potions ingredients belonging to that family. In the second vault you have two billion galleons. Their is a third vault containing ten million galleons however this has been left to Draconis Abraxas Malfoy by the late Orion Black and it is stated that it is his money to do with as he pleases. I can only tell you about this as the inheritance test tells me I can" he said as Harry smiled. It was good that Draco was being recognised here.
"Please see to it that he is informed of this change in the status of his wealth. You may tell him I did an inheritance test and we discovered we both had connections to the Black family and that this is his connection. He will be happy to know that I am sure" said Harry as he motioned for Griphook to continue.
"The last family you inherited from was the Peverell line however this line is as old as the hills so they didn't have much money in this bank. The account has ten thousand galleons in it including their family grimoire and all possessions of that family. In the days of the Peverell's people put much more stock in possession then money which is why there is so little money and so many possessions here. Here are the family rings. You will need to place them on one after the other until they amalgamate into one ring. You will then be able to call forth the ring you wish to wear at that point in time. These rings can be invisible if you like. Just tap your wand to your rings and say goodnight to them. It is weird but this has always been the incantation to hide them from magical and all eyes. To make them resurface once more you need to simply tap with your wand on the ring and say the name of that family and it will appear there. Do you need anything else before you leave?" he asked as he then presented Harry with the cheque which was now ready for him.
Harry placed all of the rings on his fingers and said goodnight laughing. This was a very funny incantation indeed and could imagine how ridiculous someone might look at anytime of the day saying goodnight for no apparent reason.
"I need one last thing before I go. I need a disguise which cannot be penetrated by magical eyes or anything which would usually reveal a disguise. He is to have a deeper voice and be two feet taller then I am. His is to have blonde hair and deep brown eyes along with sallow skin. You can name any of the accounts I have after him which will allow him to spend freely without it being questioned" he said cleverly as Griphook smirked. This was indeed cunning.
"It is done as you were describing him to me. His name is Wesley John Evans and you need only say let's go shopping to activate him. Once you say we're done shopping he will go away again. Have a nice night sir and don't remember we will get Albus Dumbledore eventually together you and I!" Griphook said sincerely.
"Thank you Griphook and please take one thousand galleons for your trouble. You have been excellent today and quite frankly you earned it" he smiled leaving with the cheque in tow. He said let's go shopping and changed before exiting into the muggle world. He would do some shopping here as Wesley Evans too. He entered the local Natwest bank branch signing up for an account and using a confundus charm he had the cheque lodged and a debit card in no time no questions asked. He registered it under Harry James Potter but made himself look like Wesley so no questions were asked about that either. He then returned home to Privet Drive and it was now ten pm. after all he'd done that day. Vernon stormed out to him looking so red in the face with rage. It was rather humourous to see.
"WHAT FUCKING TIME DO YOU CALL THIS? GIVE ME BACK MY BLASTED KEY! YOU'RE LUCKY I DON'T KILL YOU!" he snapped as Harry laughed at him chucking the key in his direction.
"Here's what we're going to do Uncle Vernon you are going to shut up lest you want to be cursed so fast your head will spin. It would seem someone lied to the both of us. I only need to be here two weeks of the year and after that I will be gone from this house until the same time next year. You have a choice you can either shut up and put up or if you really don't feel you can contain yourself go on vacation for those two weeks and this way we don't even have to meet at all!" he said seriously. Vernon looked like he was going to explode once more but then stopped thinking for a moment about the situation at hand.
"What do you mean? This Albus Dumbledore freak man thing or whatever told us you had to be here until the last week of every summer. Is this not true?" he asked as Harry once more looked thunderous actually scaring Vernon a bit not that he'd ever be admitting that one though.
"How many more people is this mother fucker going to try and screw over? No it's most certainly not true. Now what choice do you make? Vacation or we ignore each other?" asked Harry seriously.
"This is my home and I will not go on a vacation so you and your freaks can ransack it and steal from it so no way is the vacation happening" he snapped as Harry too snapped.
"Vernon you asshat I don't like any of your things and we freaks as you so nicely put it can't use the things in our world so they would be useless to everyone there. Do you think yourself so important that anyone would actually want your stuff?" he asked as Vernon sneered at him.
"You can't do magic outside school they'll lock you up Petunia told me so, so for now you will do as I tell you or things will get ugly once again!" he snapped as Harry's wand was in his hand faster then he could imagine. He raised it high in the air in a menacing way and when he slashed down he levitated the telephone in the corner on the phone stand. Vernon had thought he'd curse him shocked when he didn't.
"I am still waiting for the summons to jail you asshat. You gave me a vile childhood and it is for this reason that you will be paying me back. Once you're done we will be even for a while at least. He summoned three chairs and all of the Dursley's were placed in them, bound and gaged. Oh this was certainly going to be fun he thought looking in disgust at his relatives as they paled considerably wondering what he might do next.
