Chapter 2

Harry James Potter was sitting once again alone in the library reading about animagis. He was close to finding his form and that was making him happy. He closed his eyes and sighted. Today was July 31 and was his and Michael five years old birthday, but if you asked anyone today was only Michael Potter and no one else's party, well anybody but Sirius.

- Freak, come here right now- Lily's voice flew in the room, Harry closed the book and went to her.
- Yes, mother- the small child answered
-My darling Michael, told me that you have pushed him down the stairs, is that right- Harry looked at his smug brother and knowing that even if he told the true he will be ignored again in favour of his chubby brother.

Lily took his silence for an admittance and started screaming at him and then she called James. When he heard what Michael told Lily he started hitting Harry and finally he locked the already unconscious boy into his very small room and leaving him there.

Hours later Harry regained consciousness and heard a soft knocking on the door before a soft alahamora being said and the boy saw his godfather entering the room and running to him.

- Harry, are you alright?- asked Sirius concerned after seeing the state of his godson
- Mike, lied again to them, Padfoot, and i knew that even if I told the true he won't believe me and they took my silence as admittance and then...- the five year old started to cry
-Shh, everything is going to be ok- sed Sirius and embraced the sobbing boy. Whatever you need i always be with you i promise you that and you will always have my help. here I have a present for you

Sirius took a small velvet box from his pocket and opened it. Inside was a beautiful silver ring with an onyx stone in the jaws of a big looked at Sirius unbelievingly. He knew what that ring was and the significance and he did not know what to say except to hug Padfoot tight. Sirius embraced Harry with a smile before healing him and letting him sleep soundly.

James saw that Sirius was exiting the room of his least favourite son with a smile saw and then he went back down and saw that his once best friend left the house without even saying happy birthday to Michael. He saw his beautiful wife coming closer to him and he kissed her softly on the lips before going to the wards room and changing them to stop Sirius Black entrance from now until forevermore, satisfied with what he did he returned to the party.

Early the next day, he took the whole family to Gringotts for something that he and Lily wanted to do for a long time, but they never knew how to properly proceed until now without reflecting to bad at them. He entered the bank and went to the nearest free goblin.

- I want to see Grimjaw, for a family matter- said James
- Follow me- said the aforementioned goblin and led the family to a spacious office
- Grimjaw, sir, Lily and James Potter are here to see you
- Thank you Griphook- Grimjaw answered and look at the Potters, before motioning to them to sit in the chairs in front of his desk
- Mr and Mrs Potter how can I be of service today?
- We wish to disown our son Harry James Potter and make Michael the sole heir of the Potter fortune.

When the goblin heard that he could not believe his ears, to cast a child away from the family was something that was frown in the goblin society because they were so few of them and so precious. The young green eyed boy looked at the goblin and said in perfect goblin language.

-I have not been a real part of their family since that Halloween night. With a family like theirs who need enemies- when the goblin heard the secret confession of the child his eyes widened

The goblin nodded at the small boy and went to bring the items necessary for the disownment and the naming of a heir ceremony. Shortly after he returned with a small basin with carved runes, a silver knife and a family tree and a blood quill. He put the basin in between the family and gave the silver knife to James. The black headed man took it and cut his palm as well as Harry's palm.

-I, James Charles Potter, from now and forevermore in the eyes of magic disown Harry James Potter from the Potter family. He will no longer have a right to anything from the Potter family as well at the name James Potter. he will be able to keep anything from the Potter family that was given or has chosen him during his time with us. So mote it be- said James and gave the silver knife to Harry

- I, Harry, previously known as Harry James Potter, understand everything that James Charles Potter told me. I understand that I can keep everything that I was given or chosen to me in my time in the house of Mr. Potter and nothing else. In the eyes of magic, so mote it be.

James took Harry's hand into his and the disownment ritual was in his last stage. Harry felt that all the blood that once was James's return to the man holding his arm. Unimaginable pain overtook him and he blacked out.

Grimjaw called a goblin and ordered him to put the small unconscious boy in another room, because he needed to finish with the couple in front of him. Lily felt for the first time a pang of gilt but it was gone as sone it came and she refocused all her attention to Mike and James and the final words and the blood quill signature.

- As just signed Michael is the Potter hair, Harry is disowned from the family in the eyes of magic and nothing can be done to reclaim him as according to the magical contract between you and you disown son- he waited for the confirmation of the parties- anything else?- but there was nothing.

The goblin watched as the now family of three exited the bank and went to the room where the little boy slept and stopped mesmerized at the sight in front of him. On the couch slept a young man that resembled closely the rumoured and mythical high elfs. The green eyes opened and the goblin smiled.
