Chapter 2 Inside Gringotts
Disclaimer: All Canon Characters are not mine. They are the property of JK Rowling. If something looks familiar it's not mine. It's someone else's. This is my first story so... You can criticize me. I know that I am not a very good writer, but I wanted to give it a shot because I read so much that I just had to do this.
Summary: Harry takes a good look at his life and realizes that he is being used and manipulated so he takes control with the help of some friends be they goblin Slytherin or Ravenclaw vampire or werewolf harry plans to unite everyone under a fair new government.
OK first I would like to say that this story is basically a mix between all the stories on my favorite list wish is a lot I have read many story's about after OOTP and my favorite are the ones were harry trains over the summer and goes back to Hogwarts with an attitude and with a bang takes over Hogwarts right under Dumbledores nose. So this story will basically follow that plot line with a different twist. Also this a rewrite of the original I changed something dramatically not that it will effect the overall story but it does change it. I hope that it will be better than what it was before
Chapter 2 Inside Gringotts
Harry woke up well rested and exited for the day to come. Today was the day that he was breaking free and going to live his life.
"Dobby Winky I need you two to just wait here for now. Today I will call you later Today ok"
"Yes Harry Potter Sir"
As soon as Harry took a shower and ate breakfast that Winky brought him from Hogwarts, it was time to go hid in Vernon's Car. The night before Dobby made a trip to Gringotts with Harry's key to exchange 1000 galleons to Muggle Money Pounds. It evened out in to 5000 pounds. Harry pocketed 2000 for the day in a muggle wallet he found in the room. That should be enough for what I have planed for my disguise and cabs. Harry made his way to the Downstairs bathroom undetected under his invisibility Clock
"Dobby" Harry Whispered
"Yes Harry Potter Sir"
"Can you tell me who is outside?"
"Yes Harry Sir. The People outside are Tonks and Shacklebolt"
"Thanks Dobby"
"You welcome Harry Sir"
Harry put back on the invisibility cloke and looked in to the Kitchen. The Dursleys were still eating breakfast. Vernon was almost done Must Hurry thought Harry he opened the garage door and went inside. Vernon's car was nothing special just a 3 year Audi. The backseat was spacious. Harry didn't have to wait long just about 10 minutes until Vernon came muttering in to the car about being late again to work because his good for nothing nephew didn't cook breakfast.
The ride to work was uneventful mostly sitting in traffic for about a half hour. The parking lot of Grunning Drilling was pretty spacious. There was a gas station within walking distance. Harry went there first to find out how he could call a cab.
When Harry entered he looked around there was a man behind the counter. He had a round face and choppy hair to about his ears.
"Excuse me sir is there any way I could use your phone"
"There's a pay phone in the back kid knock yourself out"
"Thank you sir" at the back Harry found the yellow pages and called the cab agency. They told him it would be about 20 minutes before the cab would be there. As Harry waited for the cab he searched the gas station and bought a coke and some chips. Once the cab came Harry asked to be driven to the nearest mall.
Harry knew that the two things that made him stand out the most were his hair and his scar, so Harry set out to change his hair and hide his scar. First Harry got a change of clothes to appear more like a normal teenager, and not some homeless kid in baggy cloths. He found some black jeans and a dark forest green shirt with a silver dragon on the back. Next Harry went to find a hairdresser. His hair had grown out over the year to about his shoulders. He liked it that it was longer more manageable. At the hair dresser he asked to get his hair died a light brown with sandy blonde highlights and if the could cut it to cover his scar. Walking through the mall Harry found a Sunglasses Hut and bought some cheep blue contacts and a pair of nice designer sunglasses to cover his eyes. He was all set to go to Diagon alley and Gringotts to meet Neville.
He decided to chance it and take the Knight bus putting his disguise to its first test. He climbed on to the bus and saw Stan Stunspike.
"Hey lad do I know you?"
"Not that I know of. This is my first time on the Knight bus. Name's Even Jamison. I'm muggle born" Harry
"Well Even where to?"
"The Leaky Cauldron"
"Leaky Cauldron, Take it away Erne" and the bus just took off.
Harry exited the Leaky Cauldron and went in to Diagon Alley. It was bursting with customers everyone was happily buying what he or she want. Voldemort hadn't made his presence known In Diagon alley yet. Though people knew now that he wasn't some lying attention seeking freak people didn't understand that they were in danger. Voldemort was bidding his time for he does hit Diagon alley it would burn.
Harry entered Gringotts and went to the nearest goblin and handed him his heir pendent.
''Right this way sir"
Harry followed the goblin through a maze of offices and finally ending at a door with the Black family crest engraved on the door in platinum. A black grim with deep purple gems under the Orion constellation. Above the crest was a engraving stating Silverwing: Black Family Account Manager.
"Here we are sir" the goblin opened the door and Harry went inside and immediately Hedwig flew strait over to him. He almost forgot about her
"Hey girl how are you. I missed you last night." Hedwig hooted in reply and nipped his fingers. Silverwing greeted him with a toothy smile.
"Good morning Mr. Potter. I'm glad you got here well. Your owl Hedwig has been keeping me company."
"Thank you Silverwing. May your gold always flow."
"Now that you are here Mr. Potter. We should get to business. Would you like to hear the Potter or Black Will first." Silverwing stated calmly.
"The Potter if you will Silverwing, but before we hear it I would like to call in Neville Longbottom he should be with his account manager. We were meant to meet today."
"As you wish Mr. Potter. Bonecracker go retrieve Mr. Longbottom. He should be with his account manager Devilsclaw.
Bonecraker the goblin that brought him here turned and left to go get Neville
"Thank you for your patients Silverwing."
"It's not a problem Mr. Potter. Mr. Longbottom should be here shortly and if I am not mistaken he should be Lord Longbottom now of the Noble and Ancient house of the Longbottom's."
And not 2 minuets after he said that, Neville stepped through the door.
"Harry my God its good to see you. I just got done with all my Inheritance. It's intense. Look at my ring. I am Lord Longbottom now but you may call me Neville."
"It's good to see you to Neville I am glad you're here I needed someone here with me. I am just about to hear my Parents will and Sirius will. Please Silverwing I am ready."
"As you wish Mr. Potter"

Harry took a moment to process the information that he was never to go to the Dursleys. Dumbledore took My childhood away from me the moment he placed me in that shit hole. They never loved me like a family should. They abused me and treated me like a muggle house elf and slave. DUMBLEDORE IS GOING TO PAY! THAT FUCKING BASTARD! Ok I need to calm down if I am ever going to think about how I am going to handle this like an adult.
"O my God I can't believe he would do this. To think that I could have been living with Amelia Bones all this time or Remus or even you Neville we could have been brothers. I will Never and I Mean NEVER forgive that bastard for this. He deliberately disobeyed my parents will"
Neville's eyes went wide as he realized that Harry was right they could have grown up as brothers. This only solidified his decision to stand by Harry in this war. The Longbottom's always stood by the Potter Family in the past and Neville found no reason to stop the alliance. Harry kept on ranting about how Dumbledore had screwed up his life and continued to let out all his anger. Neville understood that this was a huge betrayal for Harry. He needed to vent right now while it was still fresh in his mind, but it was still shocking to hear all the ways he could curse Dumbledore's name. So Neville did the one thing that came to his mind.
Neville went over to Harry and took him in to his arms and gave Harry a hug. "It's ok Harry we will get to the bottom of this and come out on top. I can't believe we could have been brothers. Know this Harry I will never betray you EVER. Do you understand me. You are my best friend Harry. We need to figure out a plan in the next few days and learn to live our lives on our own terms." All the while Neville was hugging Harry. Harry was crying and clinging to Neville.
"You are right Neville. Thanks You are a good friend. I hope this summer we can become brothers. I would be nice. Let's get my inheritance over with."
Silverwing cleared his throat "Excuse me Lord Potter but there are still some formalities we need to go over with the rest of the Potter inheritance."
"That's fine Silverwing I am ready to hear the rest."
"Very well Lord Potter the Potter family vault contains 2,576,912,397 amount of galleons and half that in Jewelry and gems and precious stones. Your mother and fathers vault contains about 10,000,000 galleons. Your trust vault contains about 2,045,765 galleons. The Potter holdings are spread vastly over many companies both in the muggle world and in the magical world. Your most major holdings in the magical world include 50% controlling interest in Quality Quittitch Supplies, 40% controlling interest in Flourish and Blots and about 25% controlling interest in the Daily Prophet. In the muggle world, you actually own a company Grunning Drills and Supply, as well as many other companies.
For the properties the Potter Family owns a number of cottages and manors in various countries. You own a villa in southern France, a Muggle Apartment in the city of London, a cottage in Godrics Hollow and Potter Manor off the coast of Wales.
"That's it for the Potter Family with inheritances the only thing left for us to do is the accepting of the family ring."
He took out a elegant rectangle mahogany box and opened it. Inside was a beautiful ring it was solid gold with a ruby in the center with a lion carved on it in gold.
"Once you take this you will be known as Lord Potter and everyone must call you Lord Potter unless you give them permission not to. This ring will also tell the world that you are an adult and therefore must treat you as such. The underage magic rule will not apply to you anymore. You will be free do magic to your hearts content. The ring will also strip any tracking charms on you and any Potter Magical blocks and now to the ceremony." Silverwing held out the ring. "Do you Harry James Potter take the family ring to be known for ever more as Lord Potter"?
Harry got that this was an impromptu formal thing so he said the only thing that came to mind "I DO"
Silverwing slid the ring on to Harry's right middle finger and the ring disappeared. Harry could feel the Old magic of the Potters unlocking with in him. Harry felt new strength well within him and he felt lighter than air, and could feel the air move around him.
"Congratulations Lord Potter. You now have complete control over all the Potter Family Assets. The Potter family ring will appear not appear to anyone unless you show them. This quality is old magic and helps to protect the head of a family. As you are now head you can change anything you would like"
"Please Silverwing call me Harry I feel like we are going to have lots of fun this summer. "
Silverwing looked flabbergasted "No one has ever let a goblin use his or her first name. It truly is an honor Harry but because of the formality of this. I must call you by your title Lord Potter. It's just not polite to do otherwise."
"I understand call me what you are most comfortable with."
"Thank you Lord Potter we are done with the Potter Inheritance would you like to hear the Will of Sirius Black."
Harry took a deep breath and replied with a strained voice "Yes Silverwing please let me hear it"
"As you wish Lord Potter"
Black Will
I, Sirius Orion Black, being of sound mind and body do swear that this is my last will and testament dated this day August 25 1980. I name Harry James Potter my sole heir and beneficiary by right of blood and magic through the Rite of Adoptio performed with permission of James Potter and Lily Evans Potter on August 1, 1980.
I hereby give and bequeath all of my worldly goods and possessions, including any rights, titles, property or hereditary positions, claimed or unclaimed, at the time of my death to my son Harry James Potter-Black.
So Mote it Be
Signed Sirius Orion Black

Once Harry heard that Sirius adopted him he broke down crying. "Why didn't he ever tell me he adopted me? This means he was my father as well as James Potter."
"I believe he didn't tell you because he was afraid of what Dumbledore would do to him and you. He came here a couple times after his escape. He told me that if you didn't know about the adoption at the time of his death, to tell you that he loved you with all his heart and that he wished more than anything that he could have claimed you as his son for all the world to see." Silverwing explained
"Thank you Silverwing, but right know I would like to heat about the Black Family inheritance."
"The Black family vault is worth 19,978,659,837. Sirius trust vault has about 47,947,351 gallons. Every person in the black family gets a trust vault of 50,000,000. Sirius hasn't used most of it. Narcissa Black Malfoy has used about half of hers. Once the person dies their money is put back in to the family money. Only the head of the family Lord Black can access the family money. If you take the Black Family ring your cumulative wealth will be over 25 Billion Galleons. You would be the wealthiest person in this bank. Would you like to take the Black family ring like you did with the Potter ring? It would make you Lord Potter Black from now on. This will allow you access to all the family wealth and also unlock all dormant Black family magic that you haven't been able to access yet"
"Yes Silverwing I would like to take my both of my fathers' name."
Just like the Potter ring Silverwing brought out a box but this one was made out of obsidian. The Black family ring was a Platinum band with a black diamond in the center with the constellation Orion in the center. Engraved on the inside of the ring is the phrase in Latin May the House of Black Always be Free.
"OK Lord Potter this will go the same way the Potter ring went but you might feel pain by the enchantments your mother put on you when you were adopted. They will all be broken and you will receive all your black traits and magic."
"I understand Silverwing. I accept the title of Lord Potter-Black" and Harry put the ring on his right middle finger and the ring merged in to the Potter family ring. Immediately he fell to the floor in pain. His died hair immediately turned a pitch black not so unlike it was before but deeper, his face changed to look more like Sirius. He wasn't just a carbon copy of James anymore. His eyes were the most startling of the immediate changes. They changed to a metallic silver green. No longer were his eyes the killing curse green that they are known for. His height changed to just about six feet tall, not the little boy anymore. Harry didn't look like himself anymore but if you looked closely you could tell it was still Harry. Harry could feel the Black Family magic being unlocked. He instintcly knew that he could morph his body in to what ever he wanted, but he kept himself the same . Harry could feel the shadows move around him. not sure what that meant he didn't think much of it.
"Wow! Harry. Look at you. You look so different. In a good way of course." Neville exclaimed. He had kept quiet throughout the whole thing because he wanted to give Harry his space. Harry invited him to be hearing with him because he trusted him. Neville wanted to respect that trust by just being there to support.
"Thanks Neville"
" Well I know for me it was emotional. I also got my family ring today. I understand." And he really did his parents may not be dead like Harry's were but they might as well have been. He understood what it was like growing up without parents. He understands what it feels like to lose someone close to you that you can never get back.
"Thanks Nev it means a lot that you're here. Silverwing I would like to know all the black family properties so I can find out where I will stay and where is safest."
"As you wish Sir the Black family has a Manor in southern Greece, a villa Tuscany, a mansion New Zealand, another villa in the British Virgin Islands as well as the French Virgin Islands, and a Manor in both Hogsmead and London.
There is one other that I hesitate to tell you. There is one other place that you can hide where no one will know where you are save me. I hesitate to tell you because this is a property that the Black family has all but forgot. Before I tell you anything about it I have one thing to ask you. How do you feel about the magical creatures of the world including goblins, werewolves, vampires, centaurs, merpeople and Veela?"
Harry thought for a moment "Well, I Don't care if your pureblood or not my mother was muggleborn and she was a very powerful witch I was told. Let's see one of my father's best friends was a werewolf so I do believe that they are very mistreated and would love to help them move up in society. Umm Goblins I respect because they put up with so much crap from us humans and are treated with very little respect. I would like to change that. You guys manage our money, and you are very intelligent beings and I would love to learn about your magic's and the art of sword making. I have never met a vampire but I would like to meet some and establish connections and decide for myself if they are dark or not. Centaur's I believe have much to offer the world they read the stars and are very good at archery and I would love to learn their customs and traditions. I have a friend who is a Veela from the Triwizard Tournament her name is Fleur Delacour and I saved her sister Gabrielle so I believe they are good people. So to tell you they truth I would love to learn about all the magical creatures of the world and help them in any way I can."
"Well then I have a place you can hide it is Black Castle on Orion Island. No Black has lived on the island in over 700 years. I am the only creature that knows the location because only the Black family account manager is able to know its location. I have been the secret keeper of the island as long as I have been the Black Family account manager. Just as the manager before me and the manager before that. When Lord Alexander Orion Black died with out naming the next secret keeper, Orion Island fell to the goblins. I am only telling you this because I understand that you need a secret place to be safe from Voldemort. This is the safest place that I can think of. Orion Island is huge, massive and exquisite. The whole island is under the Fedillus Charm. It can be your home to. I will take you there myself if you want to. Come back to me after you are done shopping. Yes don't sound so shocked I know that that's what you are going to do. There is much about the Black Family that has been lost over the years. All of the Black family secrets are past down by account manager. That is how I know so much. When I take you to Orion Island I will explain the Black Secrets to you. But I will tell you one thing all Blacks are Metamorphmagus to some extent some more than others but it is a Black Family trait that you should have now that you have unlocked your Black magic. If you want I can make you a list of the best places to go shopping in Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley and you can pick it up went you come back up from your vaults. "
"Thank you Silverwing I believe this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship, as much as I would like to learn more about my history. I do have some business to attend to today. I would also like you to thank you for telling me about Black Castle. I can't wait to see it. We will probably come back in 2 days for you to take us there. Neville did your grandmother tell you when you had to be back home."
"No she told me that if I was going to stay with you to send an owl to let her know that I was. I would like to stay with you if you don't mind."
"O not at all I would love for you to stay with me. I was actually planning on it. I need my brother to ground me and to keep me steady. Be there for me when I need them. Also it would be very lonely to do this by myself. One thing I want to do if can is make a fake Will for Sirius to leave some money to certain people that I know that Sirius would have wanted to be better off than they are now, and I have another idea but I need to do some research on it first"
"Certainly we can arrange that."
"That's fine thanks. Well lets not waste anymore time. I really want to see my family vaults."
"About that Harry I have already made arrangements so you only have to go to the Black vault. All the galleons from all your vaults have been transferred to the Black vault and there are doors leading to each vault from the black vault. It will make more since, once you get down there. Though we could not find Sirius money, he hid it somehow in the vault because it still shows that the money is still in the vault. It is just not on the ground surrounding everything. He most likely did that when he ran away from home so his parents could not take his money back. Any way just incase you find it, you will get a big surprise"
"Silverwing is there a way that my House elves can use the money from my vault."
"Yes Harry just call them and I will set it up for you"
"Dobby Winky can you come hear for a second"
"Harry Potter Sir has called Dobby. What can I do for the great Harry Potter Sir? Harry Potter Sir you look different. Why do you look different sir"?
"Hi Dobby how are you." I will explain why I look different later. Now I need you and Winky's help."
"OOOO Harry Potter Sir needs Dobby Help what can Dobby do."
"Calm down right now I need to set an account up for you. So you will be able to buy stuff for me"
"Silverwing how do I do this."
"Harry you just set up an account like you said and then you just state who has access and then only they will be able to use the money out of that account."
"Ok then I want to set up an account of one billion galleons for only my house elves and me to have access to. Will that do?"
"Yes sir it will only take a moment. Then I will get Griphook to escort you boys to your vaults. You are going together right."
"Yes Silverwing and thank you" Harry said. They waited about 5 minutes for Silverwing to be done. Then he took out a key.
"Both you and your house elves need to only put one drop of blood on this key and I will be able to give you bank drafts so your elves can use the money in the vault" both Harry Dobby and Winky proceeded to do just that and then Silverwing gave Bank drafts to both House elves who by now were weeping.
"Dobby Winky this is money I want you to use to fix up Black Castle and the surrounding grounds. Silverwing would it be possible for you to show them Orion Island and Black Castle when we are done here today so they can get started right away"?
"Yes Harry I will do that right after we are done"
"Also Dobby Winky if you think you need help, find some more trustworthy house elves and take them to me tonight I will call you and if you have more bring them to meet me ok."
"Yes Harry Potter Sir I do that."
"Ok the first things I need you to buy 5 storage trunks as big as they come and with as many compartments as they have Make sure they have something that can store a great many books, jewelry, weapons, and gold as well as just stuff. Do that right away before I go down to my vault. Thanks Dobby"
"Yes Harry Potter Sir I do That Right Away SIR"
"Winky I want you to come with me to my vault but first while we are waiting for Dobby to come back I was wondering Silverwing is there a way I can make purchases with out carrying large amounts of money?"
"Yes Harry it's called a money pouch. You state the amount you want and the amount will appear I the pouch. It is only tied to you so only you can use it. It is quite safe. We also have what you call a credit card for the Muggle world. These devises are costly but you can well afford them. You just need a symbol for your credit card."
"That's exactly what I was looking for. I will take it all and, I would like the constellation Orion on the credit card please and how much is this going to be."
"Let's see usually the money pouch is 300 galleons with a monthly stipend of 30 gallons a month, and the credit card is 100 gallons with a stipend of about 20 gallons a month. So all together not much for you."
"I will take them both. How long for them to be working"
"Not long at all. Let's see I need your blood again. Just place a drop on each item and that ties them to you so no one else can you it. Lord Longbottom would you like to do the same thing I can call you account manager."
"Yes Silverwing that would be great"
As Harry was giving his blood Silverwing was calling Devilsclaw so that Neville could get his money pouch and Credit card.
"Hey Neville what are you going to chose as your picture on your credit card." Harry asked as Devilsclaw came in to the room.
"Not sure yet probably a lion. Devilsclaw, do you know why you are here?
"Yes Lord Longbottom. You wish to have a money pouch and a muggle credit card I can do that for you right now"
"Thank you Devilsclaw." Neville said as he started to do the same thing Harry did drop some blood on each one to tie it to him and his vault
"I am done Lord Longbottom"
"You may go" and Devilsclaw left.
Just as Harry finished Dobby popped back in to the office with his purchases.
"Here Harry Potter Sir you's trunks like you's asked"
Harry took the trunks and examined them. They were shrunk so Harry enlarged one. Opening it he saw that it had seven compartments the first one was for small stuff. When opened popped up to be like drawers to hold jewelry and precious Gems. The second compartment was a lot like the first but the drawers were a lot larger and made for animals or plant seeds. They were out of time drawers. If something were to put in there an egg the egg wouldn't hatch until taken out, great for transporting animals. The third compartment was for storing swards and knives and armor. The fourth compartment was made to store books. It had a ladder down to the room that could store up to 5,000 books. The other three compartments were just rooms 30 feet by 50 feet, and 20 feet deep just to hold what ever.
These are perfect thanks "Dobby you did well. Neville here take one. You might want something from your vault and now you can take it with you."
"Wow thanks Harry. This is nice"
"Ok boys its time to go to your vaults. Griphook please take them to their vaults."
"Yes sir"
Dobby and Winky stayed behind because Silverwing was going to take them to Orion Island.
They decided to go to Neville's vault first and then the Black Vault because they knew that they were going to spend the most time in the Black Vault. The ride to the Longbottom vault was long. They pasted a dragon and finally they came to it vault number 178. The Longbottom Vault.
"Lord Longbottom, you have to give a drop of blood to the bowl over there and state your full name to access your family vault."
Neville looked around and right next to the door was a small bowl. Neville pricked his finger and stated "Lord Neville Frank Longbottom of the most Noble and Ancient house of Longbottom"
The door opened and a gush of wind came out of the vault. Looking in to the vault he saw that it was huge nearly 200 meters deep and 100 meters wide. In the back the vault was filled to the ceiling with galleons. To the left there was jewelry, gems and precious stones displayed like in a shop, and an armory all the Swords and knives and armor along with all his ancestors' wands. To the right there was a wall filled with books and old trunks. There was also a door that had. Out of time animals and plants.
"Hey Neville I was just wondering how wealthy are you. This looks impressive. "
"About 1.5 billion, almost the same as the Potter Family, but your right this does look impressive. Let's look around. It looks like I am going to using that trunk you just gave me sooner than I thought."
"That's why I bought them to take stuff out of my vault."
"That's brilliant"
The first stop they went to was the jewelry, gems and precious stones. There was so many and they were all labeled with what type metal and what charms they had on them, if any at all. From gold to silver to platinum. Neville opened his trunk and took several pieces of jewelry. A couple beautiful necklaces one Gold with a Griffin Pendent its charms were anti stuns and protected from some minor poisons. Very useful. One was a silver chain that if a werewolf were near your neck it would shoot liquid silver down there throat The last necklaces was bronze and an anti vampire necklace, if a vampire came near your neck to bite once they went to bite it would electrocute there fangs. He took many rings one that was gold with a single ruby in the center. It had charms on it to protect against many jinks and curses. He also took a couple bracelets and a couple drawers full of gems and precious stones. Then he saw the wands and remembered.
"I almost forgot Harry I need a new wand mine broke at the Department of Mysteries"
"You should check and see if any of those feel good to you just in case. It's always good to have a couple backup wands."
"That's true"
So Neville tried all the wands only two felt good enough for him. His great Aunt Nelly and his Great Great Grandfather Eugene. Nelly's wand was rose wood with a Dragon heartstring. Eugene's wand was cherry with a unicorn tail hair. They worked pretty well for him and he was able to do just about any thing with them with out much trouble.
The next stop was the weapons. Neville took four swards two were practice swards that came as a pair. These swords are identical in nature except for the jewels. The blades of the swords were a musty brown like a dull copper. The hilt a forest green styled to look as if vines were devouring the blade. Their grip common welsh green dragon hide. Neville also took three daggers and six throwing knives, one dagger to practice with, and the other two for self-protection. Two throwing knives for practice and four for hidden on the body.
Next Neville and Harry went to look at all the books that were in his vault. There were well over five hundred most were on rare plants and how to care for them. There was no way they could get all the books in to his trunk without some help.
"Dobby can you come here?"
"Harry Potter call Dobby what can I do for you?"
"Dobby, were you at the Castle?"
"Yes Harry Potter Sir. Black Castle is huge we need help there be lots of I go look for help"
"That's fine Dobby but I was wondering if you could stay here for a little while with me and help me with my vault after we are done here in Neville's vault, and can you help us get all these books in to Neville's trunk here."
"Yes Harry Potter Sir I do that right away." With the help of Dobby, in less than ten minutes all the books were stored in the trunk. They knew they were going to buy new ones but at least they had all the books to study now.
"Thanks Dobby I will call you when I need you again"
The next stop was all the old trunks. Looking at the most recent names on the trunks Neville say that his parents' old trunks from school were here. They immediately put them in the fifth compartment to look at later. Neville also saw that there were many trunks that looked like they held secret items and he put those in the fifth compartment.
The Last stop was the Out of Time room. They walked in and there were various animals and plant seeds out of time or suspended in time. Harry looked around there were a couple mandrakes, some Devil's Snare, about one hundred pounds of Gillyweed, a Mimbulus mimbletoniaa very rare plant, a couple Screechsnape seeds, Venomous Tentacula, and a small baby sized Whomping Willow. There were many others but these were the main ones that Neville put in to his trunk. He also took a couple animals, a Mooncalf for its dung, a baby bloodhound and a baby Crup. Neville especially liked the baby Crup. He wanted to make it his familiar. Finally they were done in the Longbottom Vault, and Neville filled the last compartment with galleons about two million "for pocket change" he said and shrunk his storage trunk and they left the vault.
Time for the Black Vault.
The ride to the Black Vault was much longer than the one to the Longbottom Vault. They kept going deeper and deeper in to the Ground. They flew past several Dragons. When they finally stopped it was at Vault number 7. There were two Dragons guarding the entrance on both sides. They looked very fierce.
"Lord Potter-Black like Lord Longbottom had to do, you also have to give blood and state your full name and the door will open."
"Harry's bowl was in the center of the door. He cut his hand and bled in to the bowl stating his full name Lord Harry James Potter-Black of the Noble and Ancient house of Potter and of the Noble and Ancient House of Black"
The door slid open and Harry looked inside it was Massive Clearly the size of the Great Hall at Hogwarts. Like in the Longbottom Vault the back half of the vault was filled to the ceiling with galleons. On the left side was a door leading to the Potter Vault. Along the wall were drawers and drawers of jewelry, gems, precious metals and stones and diamonds. Farther down is where the old family wands are as well as the armory with all types of swards knives and daggers. On the right side of the wall was all the books about 2 thousand ranging from the darkest of dark arts to the lightest of the light, all ancient and rare books. There were also all the old trunks. There was a door to Sirius personal Vault was as well as a door with Out of Time Ancient and Rare Animals and Plants over the door. Harry was most exited to go in there but he waited.
First Harry went in to the Potter Vault on the left side. As he entered the Potter Vault, it looked extremely similar to the Black Vault but it was Potter. On the left side along the wall were drawers of gems and precious metals and stones and diamonds. Farther down is where the old family wands were, as well as the armory with all types of swards knives and daggers. Just like the Black vault, on the right were thousands of books all the Potter books were here, nearly 5 thousand in all. On that same wall were stacks of old trunks and a door that read Out of Time Animals.
First Harry went to the jewelry, jewels, diamonds and precious metals and stones.
"Dobby can you come here for a second"
Dobby popped in and said "Dobby here what can I do for the Great and Powerful Harry Potter Sir"
"Well Dobby I need you to fill the fourth compartment of this trunk with all the books over there if they don't fit put them in the fifth compartment. But first I need you to fill the first compartment with a wide variety of the diamonds and gems and precious metals and stones. If you run out of room use the fifth compartment compartment. Then wait for me please"
"Yes Harry Potter Sir I do that right now"
With that done with Harry went to pick out some Jewelry. There was so many and they were all labeled with what type metal and what charms they had on them, if any at all. He opened the first compartment of his second trunk. The first one Dobby was using. He picked out five necklaces ten rings and ten bracelets. One necklace was gold with a ruby pendent. They all have protective charms on them to protect the wearer from harmful potions and hexes and jinxes. One ring was platinum with a ruby diamond in the center. The bracelets he got to give to his most trusted friends at school.
His next stop was picking out a couple wands that worked well for him. He had lots of success. Most of them worked perfectly fine but there were two that worked almost like his own wand, his Great Great Grandfather James's wand elm and griffin hair, and his Great Great Uncle Art's wand maple with a single phoenix feather. (Not Fawkes)
After that he went to the weapons. Harry took three swords and four daggers and six throwing knives. One sword was a practice sword, but of the other two one was the Potter family sword and one that Harry thought would be cool. The Potter sword has a blade with a red hue to it, with a Lion engraved on it. Its hilt bears a single red diamond on both sides. The cool sword reminded him of himself. It has a bright yellow blade. Its grip is of a black metal with a pattern made of lightning bolts engraved on it. The hilt bears a single alexandrite on both sides of the sword.
The daggers, two were practice blades while the other two could be used as fighting knives. The blades were identical a golden copper with a ruby shine to it. The hilt is bronze with a handle of simple fireball dragon leather wrapped with a lion embroidered in bronze. With the throwing knives, two were for practice and the other four came in two pairs, gold and ruby. Once thrown and damage inflicted they return to your hand after two minutes.
Dobby was still packing all the books in to the first trunk. So Harry went to the Old Trunk section. While looking through it he found something interesting. It was a special trunk. On the top was written The Marauders Trunk. Harry tried opening it but it wouldn't budge. It's probably password protected. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good" and the trunk opened. Inside were all their notes on the Marauders Map and their exploits in the Forbidden Forest and pranks it was the Jackpot. Harry placed it in his Fifth compartment. Looking around more he found his fathers old trunk as well as his mother's trunk. He placed those trunks with the Marauder Trunk in his fifth compartment.
Next was the out of time room. This is what Harry was the most exited about after seeing what was in Neville's out of time room; Harry couldn't wait to see what was in his. He went inside and looked around. They were all very young animals Harry took a couple for the Island to roam free two of every animal a male and a female some Aethonon's, Griffin's, Hippogiffs, two pair of Kneazle kittens, Threstles and Unicorns, and Fire Horses and the extinct snidest. Harry took ten eggs and two adult snidgets. He really wanted them on his island there was also one Phoenix egg really rare. Harry took that as well. They didn't all fit in the second compartment some had to go in the Sixth and others even in the seventh compartment. Harry shrunk the second trunk again and put it back in to his bag He came out of the room to see if Dobby was done with the books
"Dobby you done with the books and jewels for the Potter Vault"
"Yes Harry Potter Sir I is just done"
"Good do you mind doing the Black Books and jewels just like you did the Potter get a verity of diamonds? I particularly like the Black Diamonds." Harry said as he gave the third storage trunk to Dobby after Dobby gave Harry the first trunk that he just finished filling with gems jewels and books the fourth and last one for him to fill.
Done with the Potter Vault Harry walked back in to the Black Vault
The Black family jewelry was extensive. They had very little gold mostly silver, platinum and obsidian. Harry took a couple of each type one silver necklace, and two platinum. One of the platinum necklaces was just a plain chain inlaid with black diamonds. Harry thought it would look good on him. The protective charms were more intense then any other piece of jewelry. It can protect against almost any charm jinx, hex, poison, or mind-altering potion except the unforgivables. It was perfect. Also there was a ring that made anything on you unable to be summoned. The band was obsidian with small emeralds inlaid around it.
Trying out the Black Family wands, not a lot of them worked for Harry only a handful. Two worked better than the others one almost perfect. Harry's Great Great Grandfather Sirius's wand worked pretty well for him oak and Thestral heartstring. The most surprising wand that worked perfectly for him almost the same as his holly wand if not better was his Great Great Uncle Arcturus's wand Ash with a Basilisk scale.
At the Armory Harry opened his trunk to the third compartment. He took three swords; one training the Black Family sword and one that he thought was cool. The Black family sword is a blade of black obsidian, which is made to look like the knight sky. Its grip is wrapped with purple leather with the Orion constellation dyed into it in silver. The hilt bears a single Black Diamond on both sides. The other sword has a blade with a purple hue to it, with a pattern that changes constellations' depending on what is in the sky engraved on the blade. The hilt is arc-shaped and its pommel bears a single onyx.
Harry took five daggers one a practice dagger. Two were the Twin Black Family daggers. The blade's platinum with a black diamond finish, with the handle Arcomantula silk. The other Two were different enough. One a pure silver blade with a Night cloud dragon hide handle. The leather of a Night cloud Dragon is a dark grey. The hilt of the dagger is silver with white diamonds in the center on both sides. The other dagger is made of ironwood with a Peruvian Vipertooth hide handle. The leather is the color of a very dark forest green.
Harry took eight throwing knives and twenty throwing stars. The throwing knives were pretty simple, two silver, two obsidian, and two aluminum. The throwing stars were pretty simple and strait forward as well, six silver and twelve aluminum stars.
Walking over to the right side of the vault Harry decided to skip the trunks and go strait to Sirius personal vault. He opened the door and there were only three items in their a letter from Sirius, his school trunk, and his adult trunk. Harry immediately put the trunks in the fifth compartment of his trunk. He would read Sirius letter when he was ready.
"Harry Potter Sir Dobby done with Black family"
"Whoa there Dobby" Harry exclaimed "I almost forgot you were here thanks so much for your help with this. You can go back to looking for other house elves and cleaning Black Castle."
"You's Welcome Harry Potter Sir"
The last room Harry went in is the Out of time room. It was separated in to three groups. Serpents, Plants, mixed and others.
Harry went to the Serpents first. He knew that he was going to get the most of these because he can speak to them. That would go a long way to making sure that they are on his side. Harry got two basilisk eggs, ten ashwinder eggs, about fourteen boomslang's, two occamy eggs, and two runespores.
There were many plants but Harry only took a few plants that looked promising for on the island. There was about two hundred pounds of gillyweed. Harry took half of the seeds. gillyweed to grow on the island, and two seeds of a whomping willow as well as a baby whomping willow.
The mixed breeds that Harry took were some of the Black family creations one that really interested Harry were the mix between a moke and a basilisk. The result would be a basilisk that can be really small or really big at a moments notice. The other mixed animals that Harry took were two baby black unicorns, a breed between a thestral and a unicorn.
The Other animals that Harry took were a couple of grims, three hellhounds, ten mokes, 5 nifflers, about a dozens murtlaps, four kneazles and a two crups.
All the small animals and eggs fit in the third compartment while all the big animals went in the sixth compartment of his nifty trunk.
"Wow that took longer than I thought it would. Hey Neville I am done you can wake up now."
Neville has long since fallen asleep on one of the couches in the center of the vault. As he heard Harry call him he quickly woke up and went to join his friend. As they rode the car back up to the surface. Neville talked to Harry
"Did you find lots of good items?"
"Yes I have almost four full trunks."
"Wow that is a lot of stuff. What do you want to do now? The stores are about to close soon"
"Let's take the rest of the day off and stay at a nice hotel in muggle London. We can deal with Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley tomorrow."
"Sounds good to me"
Before they left though Silverwing gave each a list of the best places to go in both Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley
