Peering at the parchment, Kairos began to read the words that formed.
"The potion will reveal potions and the such in order to ensure that you aren't being controlled." informed Slagclaw.

*The above core ranking system is the Lord and Ladies Ranking System. Starting from bottom to up, bottom being those with barely any magical power to those who have the greatest magical core. The average wizard ranges from Dames to Viscountess. However there are those with exceptionally large magical cores. Note that females have a slightly smaller magical core compared to their male counterparts. However, females usually have more finesse in their casting. Note that if you are a male and get a female title, ie Countess, it simply means that you have more magical power than a 'Viscount' but less than a 'Count'.

"They… they fed me potions to keep me pliant and obedient to them?" Kairos voice shook as she said this. Why did they have to do this to her? Tears ran down her cheek as Kairos sobbed silently into her hands. Breathing in deeply, Kairos sought to calm herself.
Looking at Kairos unbalanced state, Slagclaw glanced at the parchment before growling in rage. A horcrux?
"Kairos, what do you know about Horcruxes?"
Kairos looked up before silently shaking her head. What the hell was a Horcrux supposed to be? By now, most of her previous sorrow had turned to rage. Looking towards Slagclaw, Kairos waited for an explanation. Slagclaw cursed before beginning to explain
"A Horcrux is a powerful object in which a Dark wizard or witch has hidden a fragment of his or her soul for the purpose of attaining immortality. Creating one Horcrux gives one the ability to anchor one's own soul to earth if the body is destroyed; the more horcruxes one creates, the closer one is to true immortality. Creating multiple Horcruxes is suggested to be costly to the creator, by both diminishing their humanity and even physically disfiguring them. To split one's soul, one must also commit the most supreme act of evil—murder—and then encase a portion of their fractured soul into a chosen object with the spell. The detached soul fragment will always remain as it was when it was divided."
"Wait, what? Why do I have a horcrux in my scar? Is there any way to remove it?" She didn't want that vile thing in her head any longer.
"Fortunately for you, goblins have a ritual to get rid of that foul thing. But for a price of course." said Slagclaw. Kairos just nodded. She wanted that foul away especially since it seemed to be taking power from her magical core.
"Very well then. Would you also like the blocks on your magic removed?"
"Yes!" exclaimed Kairos passionately.
"Very well. If you would follow me to the Ritual room…" Slagclaw trailed off as he began walking in the direction of the door. Kairos trailed behind him silently.
Soon they arrived at the ritual room.
"First we will conduct the unblocking rituals. I have been told that the pain is excruciating. However you must stay awake in order for the soul purifying ritual to occur next. However, before we start, I must ask you to wait while I call the other goblins."
Kairos nodded and waited patiently. Soon the goblins had gathered. The goblins formed a circle around Kairos who was lying in the middle before beginning to chant.
"Dicitur in vepribus et Magia Dominarum testem iniuriae uni filiorum beatorum . Obsecramus rumpere incantationibus consedit puer. Vepribus et domina, adesto dolori gravida ruptis vinculis posito super caput."
(Translation (latin): We call on the great Lords and Ladies of Magic to witness this injustice to one of your blessed children. We beseech you to break the enchantments set on your child. Great Lords and Ladies, please help your suffering child by breaking the chains set upon her.)
At first Kairos felt a slight tingle-a ticklish sensation. However, as the chant went on, the tingles grew in intensity until it felt like she was being cut open. The once light tingles had turned into an inferno of pain. Screaming, she felt as though she was being placed under the cruciatus curse. No, it was worst. Closing her eyes tightly, she forced herself to remain conscious. However the pain only continued to grow and grow.
After what seemed like eternity, the pain stopped. Sitting up, Kairos smiled weakly at the fact that her natural abilities were no longer being blocked. Taking in deep breaths, Kairos felt as the last of her pain slowly ebbed away.
"Are you ready for the purifying ritual?" asked Slagclaw. Kairos nodded while bracing herself. She was sure that the pain she would this time would be more. Lying back on the ground, Kairos heard the chanting begin anew.
"Dicitur in vepribus et Magia Dominarum auxilium purgare corpore beatorum infantium. Auferte malum anima refugit in medio eius in Inanis . Custodi animam meam et de tenebris et illi ab se firmum robur validum. Obsecramus vepribus et dominarum auxilium gravida ."
(Translation (latin): We call on the great Lords and Ladies of Magic to help cleanse the body of one of your blessed children. Banish the evil soul taking refuge inside her into the Void. Protect her from the dark soul and give her the strength and resolve to keep herself strong. We beseech you great Lords and Ladies to help your child.)
This time, when the goblins chanted there was no pain. Instead, she felt a soothing feeling on her scar. Opening her eyes, Kairos noticed a soft golden mist slowly appearing around her and seeping into a her skin. As the mist entered her, Kairos felt a sense of complete and utter calm. The chanting of the goblins blending into the background. It was only her and the magic. Just then, the mist stopped entering her. Rather, a tainted black mist seemed to be coming out. Soon the flow of mist leaving her body stopped. Kairos couldn't help but feel a sense of longing for the magic to come back and surround her. Sighing wistfully, Kairos shakily stood up.
Then walking towards Slagclaw, she left the room with him.
"Lady Potter. We are sorry to say that the ritual has changed the colour of your eyes."
"What?" Slagclaw passed Kairos a small pocket mirror. Glancing into the mirror, Kairos was shocked to see that her eyes had turned gold in colour-the same shade of the magic earlier. But how-no, why? Kairos couldn't help but mourn the loss of her emerald coloured eyes. It made her feel rather… disconnected from her mother. But on the bright side… At least no one would know that she was Hebe Potter from her eyes… right? Sighing, Kairos decided to push her concerns to the back of her mind first.
"Is it possible for you to refer to me in a different name when writing any official documents to me?"
"It is possible but due to the inconvenience, you would have to pay a small fee of 12 galleons."
"Can you do that then. Ummm… Refer to me as Kairos Lercos then."
"Noted. Anything else Lady Potter?"
"Ah! Can I explore my Vaults?"
"You may. A word of advice, from all of your vaults, only vault 13, 38, 2, 44 and 8 don't hold money. Rather, they hold items. Now, I will call for Griphook to take you to your Vaults."
Once this was said, Slagclaw left. Within moments, Griphook arrived.
"Which vault would you like to visit?"
"Vault… 2 first. I think I'll work my way to the top."
Griphook just nodded before telling her to get into the cart. Once she was in, the cart went off at great speeds. When they reached Vault 2, Kairos climbed out of the cart and stood in front of a golden door. There was no key hole or door knob in sight. Raising an eyebrow, Kairos turned to Griphook. Griphook simply rolled his eyes before telling her to place her palm against the 'door'. As soon as she touched it, the door melted away, revealing a room filled with frozen statues that looked extremely life-like. Eyes seemed to stare at her as she ventured around the room. Stroking a beautiful statue of a cat, Kairos was shocked to feel fur under her fingers.
Stumbling backwards, Kairos fell onto the ground shocked beyond comprehension.
"W...what?"
That was when the statue started to move. Kairos could only stare, mouth agape in fear. What was happening?
Child do not be alarmed. I am Caligine, a winged panther. I was Rivincita Calypso Peverell's Familiar. She was the first Peverell. Generations of Peverell's have arrived at this vault to receive their familiar. I have guarded this vault for century after century protecting this vault. You are the last Peverell and I am honored to serve you.
"What do you mean? What familiar? I don't understand?" Kairos' magic reacted, her voice rising higher and higher. Around her, the shadows grew darker while illusions appeared around her.
Just then she heard a song. It reminded her of Fawkes' phoenix song. It managed to soothe her troubled mind, thus causing her magic to recede back into her body. She was so tired. Slumping down, she stared blankly into the air.
It's okay child. You are alright now. Just rest, I will stand guard over you. Tomorrow you will find your Familiar. But for now, nobody will hurt you under my watch.
Caligine curled around Helene protectively. Slowly, Kairos closed her eyes. Within minutes she fell asleep.
And... cut! Next chapter is done. Thanks for the reviews everybody. Anyway, please continue to review and favourite this story.
