OK I know many of you may want to kill me right now (or maybe not), but since the last updates I made I had some major problems that didn't allow me to do anything at all.
Then the summer came and any chance of writhing anything went down the drain.
But enough about my life on with the story

(In the previous chapter)
"…Sure Lord Blackdragon" said the goblin before leaving.
'Good I now have a fortune, and my family is now among the ranks of the pureblood giving me a place into the wizenmagot ,now all I have to do is get a place to live and then… find Lily'
(New chapter)
We find Thorn in Gringots talking to his new account manager Silvertooth about his new vault.
"So, please tell me Mr. BlackDragon why did you fight against the Slytherin vault to gain access to it? You should have gained access just by speaking a few words in Parseltongue."
"That would be true Mr. Silvertooth, however I wasn't really fighting the vault for access."
"You weren't?" asked the surprised goblin.
"No. If I wanted to enter I could have done like you said and say a few words in Parseltongue. That way I could use the vault but it would never accept me so I entered a fight of wills to make it accept me."
"A fight of wills? And what do you mean it wouldn't accept you?" asked Silvertooth now even more interested since any new information about the magic guarding vaults was worth a lot.
"Yes. While by just speaking Parseltongue I could enter for the vault to accept me I had to pass a ...test. In this case was proving who had the more will to do what it wanted and if they the magical capacity to poll it off. In my case I wanted to enter and the vault wanted to keep me out. And when I say it wouldn't accept me I mean it wouldn't give me anything more than just gold"
"But still magic was felt all over the caves and the dragons were acting very strangely during the fight."
"…The only way for us to communicate was by using magic, usually an heir uses a ring to prove that he belongs in the family, unfortunately I don't have a ring so I had to use magic. "
"You see this? This staff was made with what was left of a Dragon that I defeated at the age of 14. When I reached my magical maturity I gained power from the dragon and this staff witch I have a connection to. "
"Because of this I think I gained a … connection with the dragon race. So when I was having the "test" there was a time when I was almost giving up, to the dragons it felt what they thought was one hatchlings losing a fight so they roared to give encouragement to their kin."
So when I heard their roars a part of me, probably the part of my magic that represents the "dragon" part, gained more will to fight and win, which happened. "
"That …explains a lot" said Silvertooth who was trying to digest all that he had learned."Just one more thing, what is that dragon now in your vaults doors? We the goblins have never seen anyone like that, and we deal a lot with dragons that guard our caves. And when don't even see how that could be a real dragon because he lacks eyes."
"…Many families use animals as their symbols because they feel that animal represents what their families stand for the best. For my family symbol I choose the image of a mythical dragon that I heard of while in the muggle world, he was Bahamuth King of the Dragon race I thought he would make a fine symbol. Now is there any place you could point me where I could get a house please?"
"Gringots has many connections with many house sellers you just have to give me your preferences and we will bring you all the houses with those specifications in a few minutes."
"I wish for my house to be 2 stories high, be a little out of a big city and please make sure that it isn't on a neighborhood where every house is exactly the same."
Seeing the questioning gaze of the goblin Thorn decided to explain a bit more.
"I lived in one neighborhood like that in my child hood and I thought it was horrible."
"Very well would you like anything while we wait?"
"No thank you."
(30 minutes later)
Thorn had in front of him various pictures and descriptions of houses for sale.
"This one seems to be the best." Said Thorn giving Silvertooth the papers of his choice.
"Very well here is the key of the house and you will be pleased to know that it is already furnished. You can leave immediately for the house if you so wish."
"Already? Dam talk about fast service."
"Gringots tries to offer the best service possible so that our clients always come back for more. Will that be all Mr. Blackdragon?"
"Yes thank you for your time Mr. Silvertooth until next time" said Thorn rising from his chair and starting to leave the room.
"The pleasure was all mine ."
(Cherry Street in front of nº 7)
'So this is my house? Looks pretty nice.'
The house was 2 stories high white, it had a nice garden in the front and a small backyard.
It had a hall with stairs for the second floor, a living room and a kitchen.
On the second floor there were 3 bedrooms, and a bathroom.
The house was in a friendly looking neighborhood with many people walking around it just enjoying the weather.
'Well now that I know my house I better go buy some clothes my dementor cloths are nice and all but it's troublesome to try to stop its leaching effects all the time'
Just as Thorn turns to leave someone hits him and he falls to the floor.
'Dam if I can be surprised by an innocent how on earth am I going to kill the DE?'
"Oh my god I'm so sorry I wasn't looking were I was going and so I hit you…"said the girl
"Please stop it was an honest mistake, beside I wasn't hurt so no problem."Finally Thorn looked up and saw something that he had only seen in pictures.
'Lily'
"I am so sorry for bumping in you but I wasn't looking were I was going."
Shaking himself out of his stupor Thorn rushes to answer.
"As I said there isn't a problem."
"I'm glad. By the way I'm Lily Evans" said Lily.
She had red hair, green eyes the same color as Thorns, she was wearing a green top and blue shorts.
"The name is Thorn Blackdragon".
"Blackdragon? That's a strange name."
Chuckling a bit Thorn answered" I guess it is a bit strange".
"Um hum. Say are you new here? It's just that I never saw you here before"
"Yes I'm new. I just moved actually. Hey I was going to go buy now some new clothes would you mind telling me where I can buy some?"
"Help you shopping? Sure I was just looking for something to do so might as well make a new friend."
"Thanks."
(Some hours later in front of Thorns house)
They had several hours later they had bought a whole new wardrobe for Thorn since the only thing he had was the cloths he was wearing.
Shopping has been a bit boring for Thorn but he didn't mind since he got to know Lily.
Lily. He just couldn't call her, even if mentally mom. Maybe it was because she was practically the same age, or maybe it was because he never had met her in his life, but the point was he just couldn't call her mom.
And as he spent the day with her, that idea just got stronger until now that he thought of her as a friend.
"Thanks for your help Lily, I really appreciated it."
"It's alright Thorn I had lots of fun and even made a new friend, that's if you'll be my friend. I only have friends in a privet school I go and none of them lives close to me so it gets lonely in the summer."
"Of course Lily, but you'll have to show me the interesting places."
"Alright!!" said Lily jumping of joy while Thorn just looked and laughed.
"Hey Thorn do you want to go to a nightclub tonight?" asked Lily after calming down a bit.
"Sure I don't have anything to do so I'm free."
"Great I'll come to get you at 11. Bye"
"Good bye "said Thorn before heading home to go guard his cloths.
(11 pm in front of Thorns house)
Thorn was waiting for Lily to arrive when he saw her coming from right and went to great her.
"Hi Lily."
"Hi Thorn. Just a question before we go, are you going Goth?" said Lily looking at Thorn in some of his new cloths. He had a black shirt, black trousers and black shoes.
"Goth!? Just because I like black doesn't mean I'm Goth"
"Calm down I was just kidding. Well lest go I know an awesome nightclub some streets from here".
(Nightclub "Red Night")
Lily had taken Thorn to club were they had to wait a bit at the entrance, but then were allowed in.
The club had a square dance floor, some chairs in an upper level with a bar just besides them.
The club was packing with people, dancing at the sound of the music that was chosen by the DJ of the club, while many lights flashed around.
As Thorn saw many of the people dancing in the floor he remembered something.
"Lily" screamed Thorn over the sound of the music. "I forgot to tell you I don't know how to dance".
"Don't worry" yelled Lily just as loud." Ill teach you.
For the next couple of hours Thorn and Lily dance, since proved to be an excellent learner and having great reflexes toke very little time to learn how to dance.
They were both having lots of fun when suddenly Thorn gut feeling and warning bells started going off.
'Uh oh something's coming and it ain't pretty', He thought, the appearance of many magical signals all over the block and the explosions that were heard outside of the club moments after that proved him right, 'Dam I hate being right, maybe I should really go to that divination business after all this dark lord stuff'
As the people rushed for the exit Thorn grabbed his staff turned wand in case it was necessary. Lily of course noticed this and couldn't stop herself from saying:
"You're a wizard???"
Thorn just turned to her and said.
"Yea." He said like it was perfectly normal to have magical powers.
Lily was a bit surprised by his truthful answer and would have stood there looking at him for a while if she didn't suddenly heard screams of fear outside and some that could easily be recognizable as the Avada Kedavra.
Also grabbing her wand Lily followed Thorn outside.
What they saw was the street full of DE attacking the people.
