Harry or Hadrian as he now thought of himself since that is his REAL name had left Gringotts' the Wizarding Bank with two trunks and a list of shops to look at. One of the trunks that were shrunk down in his pocket was a special trunk made by a Potter ancestor who at the time was an Unspeakable. Horatio Potter liked to experiment and come up with new and interesting things.
The trunk in Hadrian's pocket was one of Horatio's better inventions. It had one compartment and looked very plain almost like a standard Hogwarts first year trunk but what made the trunk really special was that it was connected to Room of Requirement in Hogwarts. Anything the Room of Requirement can do the trunk could do too but instead of walking in front of it three times while thinking of what you needed you had to have Potter blood to even open it or to get into trunk. Once inside the trunk, which at first is a plain stone room, you had to say 'Courage Conquers' in the speech that all great cats use. Only Potters had a talent for beast-speech. So it stands to reason only a Potter could use the trunk.
Another amazing fact about the trunk was that it could slow time down while inside it. For every day outside a month would go by in the trunk, for every month a year would by. Hadrian was in love with this feature because now he could everything he needed to know within the three months they had vacation. Which meant three years of non-stop learning, by the time he was through he may just be able to stand on equal footing with Voldemort and Dumbledore both or at least be able to hold his own plus he had the Yule holidays as well.
The second trunk Hadrian had was a four compartment trunk that he was going to use to replace his old standard one. This trunk was a work of art. It was a red mahogany and on the top part it had a lion with a dark mane sleeping under a beautifully carved tree and on the sides of the trunk you could see running gazelles. On the front there were for golden keyholes that opened up the different compartments. The first compartment was a wardrobe that would hold all of his clothes. The second compartment held nothing but one book. This book was connected to the entire Potter library, the one in the vault and all the ones on his various properties. The book was a fantastic find and Hadrian was looking forward to studying it.
The third compartment was to hold his regular stuff like school books, broom, his invisibility cloak, his photo album and his map. The fourth compartment was connected to his family vault actually. It would definitely help out when he needed to talk to his ancestors whose portraits were very helpful. He really didn't need any other compartments because The RoM trunk would have everything he would need.
Hadrian pulled out his list and looked at the first shop listed.
Twilfitt and Tatting's
Wizarding Wear for Lords and Ladies since 1652
Diagon Ally
Hadrian sighed at the thought of getting new clothes but he did need them so he slowly made his way towards the shop.
He opened up the door and stepped in expecting the inside to look something like Madam Malkin's but he was surprised to find it looking something like a small circular ballroom with curtained off doorways all around the room.
Hadrian walked towards the middle of the room not seeing any person or any clothes for that matter. He was beginning to think he walked into the wrong shop when a small elderly gent, only about an inch or so above Hadrian's own height of 5"4, appeared right beside him.
"May I help you young Master Potter or should I say Lord Potter?" The small old man said with a slight smirk on his wrinkled face.
"How did you know my name?" Hadrian asked curiously
"I have served the Potter's before Lord Potter, the hair I'm afraid gives you away every time." He said smiling gently
"Ah… well please call me Hadrian. I'm not use to being called Lord Potter, Mister…?" questioned Hadrian
"Mister Twilfitt if you will. Now I can see you need a whole new wardrobe looking at those disgusting rags your wearing." He said looking disgusted at the distasteful clothes adorning Hadrian's small body, "Now we here at Twilfitt and Tatting's work differently than Madam Malkin's. This first curtained door here when you first walk in," He said as he walked Hadrian to the small room behind the curtain, "Is where all customers start."
Harry looked around the small room that appeared to be a small library of some sort. "What is it?"
"This is the design room young man. You can either design your own apparel or choose designs that are already made. Now I will give an hour and I will be back to see what you have. Do have fun Mister Potter." He left with a wave towards the shelved books.
Hadrian looked lost as to what to do. He did not expect to have to design his own clothes nor did he expect to be left alone while doing so. He gave one long suffering sigh before pulling out books randomly and flipping through them.
An hour later and he was done. He had two new designs and an old design he had found that he like very much. The first design was something he had created by putting pieces together from different eras. It had a Victorian flavor to it mixed with modern muggle. The design consisted of a high collared button up with a fitted button up vest that Hadrian had drawn many different buttons for, lion heads, leaves, grim dog heads, viper snakes and small little owls that would be used for each new vest. Then he had drawn tight fitted straight leg pants that could be shoved into the boots that Hadrian had imagined would go with his new look. Finally to finish off the new design he had an open robe that went down to mid –calf and was high collard to match his button up.
The second design had a more Arthurian feel to it in that the design basically consisted of a form fitting tunic over loose fitting pants that could be worn with slippers. He also had sleeveless robes again coming down to mid-calf. All in all casual wear that was very comfortable.
The last design was already made and looked like something out of a Lord of the Rings novel. He world only need one set maybe two as the design was too fancy but he never knew if would need more dress robes so it would nicely round off his wizards wear before went to the muggle world for more clothes.
He had just finish putting back the books when Mister Twilfitt was back and looking at his designs.
"These are some mighty fine designs young one and you even chose a Black Design how nice." He commented
"huh?" Hadrian said eloquently
"The last design was designed by Regulus Black. He told me it was based off an old muggle book." He answered still staring at Hadrian's designs
"Well enough of that. Come along. The door next to this is our next stop. You must pick your fabric of course." He said pulling Hadrian to the next room
Upon entering Hadrian saw rolls upon rolls of different fabric lined up nicely by the walls. 'Oh man I'm going to be here forever' he let out a dejected sigh and pulled himself together. He needed to get this done so he could visit other stores before he had to go home.
He spent another thirty minutes along with old man Twilfitt picking out fabrics for his designs. It was exhausting digging through the piles looking for fabric that didn't itch or was comfortable enough and then to find that same fabric in the colors he wanted. When all was said and done he had enough dragon hide, acromantula silk, magical cotton from the Cotton Rabbit plant and Kyuubi fur to make at least make five outfits in his first design that Twilfitt was now calling Hades Finery and enough to make seven sets of his second design called Casually Elegant with enough left over for three brand new dress robes in the Black Design. All in all Hadrian was happy.
In the third room all Hadrian had to do was get measured and check off on the enchantments and charms he wanted placed on his new clothes. He got the standard Anti-tear, Anti-stain, Temperature charms and charms that would allow them to grow with him. Twilfitt also talked him into getting the runic service that would protect him and his clothes from fire spells and tracking charms.
He had left Twilfitt's after paying out five hundred and sixty gallons. His clothes would be sent to his house later that night. Hadrian pulled out his list and saw that just down from Twilfitt's was a Leather shop for all occasions. He went in and immediately drooled at the boots on display. After looking around he found six pairs of knee high boots in black with different designs. Some buckled, others tied and some zipped but he liked all of them and they were black so he knew they would match everything he had order from Twilfitt's and Tattings. He also manage to get a new should bag that had an expansion charm and feather light charms place on it.
His next stop was in Backend Ally. He had never been and knew this would be his last stop for the day. It was getting late and he needed to get home soon. He headed for the store WarHammer had written down.
Odds and Ends of BackEnd
Backend Ally since 902 A.M. (After Merlin)
The store was Odd to say the least. It was shaped like a pumpkin and had windows that were triangle shaped. If you looked at it as a whole you will see that it was a giant Jack-o-Lantern. Hadrian walked in a little bemused but curious enough. The store literally sold everything you could think of from books to pets and even plants. You could see glass figurines lining the shelves to his right and swords and other weapons on his left. Hadrian really didn't know where to look first so he headed to the weapon section like all boys would. There were enchanted daggers, bows that never ran out of arrows, swords that talked and flirted with you, which Hadrian found morbid, and finally he saw something that called to him. It was a Bo staff made out of ebony wood. It had all kinds of features. If you channeled magic into one rune it would turn into a glaive and if you press the very middle it would break apart leaving two small staffs and then there was the last feature that simply called to Hadrian. The Bo staff could literally turn into a glider if you pressed the right runic sequence. It was amazing and Hadrian instinctively knew that this weapon was for him.
He was just about to go and pay when something grabbed his leg. He looked down and damn if he didn't see a Miniature Bonsai that had the sentient being of a Whomping willow. The little tree was wrapped around his leg 'Humping Him!' like some kind of dog.
"Hey…Hey! Get off!" Hadrian said as he shook his leg trying to dislodge it. The little thing was creeping him out.
"Don't mind the little rascal that's just his way of greeting customers." An amused voiced said from behind Hadrian.
"Well get him off!" Hadrian snapped he was becoming extremely flustered by the still humping tree. Something in his tone must have alerted the tree because instead of humping him still it began to cry. Honest to god cry.
"Awww you hurt his feelings. He was just being friendly." The man said
'A little too friendly if you ask me' Hadrian thought as he bent down to try and get the tree to stop crying. "Hey don't cry, I'm sorry. My name is Hadrian pleased to meet you." Hadrian had no idea why he was talking to a tree but it seemed the right thing to do. 'I can't believe me and Neville were just talking about this and now I found one. I didn't even know they exist!' Hadrian contemplated.
The little perverted tree stopped it's crying and meeped at him. The tree meeped again and then hugged him tightly with its little branches. Hadrian wasn't sure what to do so he hugged the little thing back. It was kind of cute.
Hadrian stood up and walked over to the man and said, "I would like this Bo staff please."
"Ah yes, I've had that for many years. It has indestructible runes etched into it along with fire proof and weight runes. The weight runes will make the staff heavier or lighter depending on what you need at the time. Will this be all." He asked
"Yes please." He said as felt something pulling on his pant leg. He looked down and saw it was the tree with his branches held out like a child asking to be picked up. He couldn't resist it was so cute with it's pinkish red leaves and mahogany trunk. He picked him and turned to the man and asked, "Is the tree for sale?"
"Hmm…" the man stared at Hadrian with an accessing stare studying him before slowly nodding his head, "I suppose if it's you then yea he is for sale."
"Alright how much for the both of them?"
"A thousand gallons for the staff and twenty for the tree as you were his choice." The man said mysteriously
Hadrian paid the man and was on his way out when the man said, "Do come again young Potter. There is more in this store that will interest you, I'm sure." He said as headed for a back home.
'Hmm…how weird' Hadrian thought as he felt a shiver go down his back.
"Well little one" he said as he looked down at the tree, "You need a name but I can't think of one right now. Maybe I will think of one later but for now it's time to deal with the Dursley's" Hair said with a devious smirk 'oh this was going to fun'
