Not happy with this but needs to be done

At the end of all this I just realized, I just screwed dobby. He never got free and Potter is down one more protector. Shit I just keep screwing him over with more time I spend here. Hmm maybe I should just have an elf pop food over to his house every day. But nothing special, just a box of PowerBars and a liter of water. Might help him put on some weight also. I will just need to make sure he doesn't know who it's from or anything like that. So I will make sure it's delivered at night when he's asleep so he finds it on his desk in the morning.

After I thought that I let Maggie know I need a house elf to do that for me. I also asked her if she can put aside every one of the puffs things in a tunnel so I can give them back. I asked if she could get a list of the names and addresses of everyone also it would be great. That just means I am going to have to spend the morning writing letters to everyone and asking if they can meet me in a week so I can return their stuff. I also made sure the people who wanted to work for me where there also. I guess I should go to the alley to hire some owls to send these. I am not buying more just for this nonsense and it would take the 2 I have access to, a long time to get more than 70 letters out. I will leave my PO Box address on it so if the muggle borns can't get back to me they can mail a reply through the post. I think I might buy a cell phone next year and 1 for all my employees so I can get ahold of them. That or find out how to make those damned mirrors.

Well it's been 4 days since I got home and I got some sad news. I have to hire more people, specifically multiple accountants to hide the money and lawyers to get permits and what not. And I'm going to have to tell my guys they are going to need to make less because of this, but to make up for it I will add some houses all over the world when I get the money that can be company vacation homes. They can even suggest where. All this came from a muggle born named Joe who has a lawyer as a mom. I will have to see if she's a squib so she can take an oath. After that show her some exercises that will give her a bigger core hopefully once she does take the oath.

Because of this I have called in everyone and let them know the issues I'm having. After explaining to them everything about the realities of life I forgot about, I got them down to 12% profit cut on a house. This half's there pay but they aren't to mad because they still get a lot of money and their schooling is paid off to the goblins. I did not think they would work this fast and well or I think I would have started at this lower pay from the beginning. I was expecting maybe a house a month or two but they just went at it. I then told them about my vacation house idea and I put up a white board in the kitchen that had places where they would want it and how many people would want to stay there. This would at least let me buy where they liked and not what I thought. At the end of it I had an invite to meet Joe's mom to see if she's a squib right after.

When meeting Joe's mom I turned on my sight and saw she was a squib because she did have a very minor core. I asked her if she would be willing to take the oath and with Joe's prompting she did. She was very surprised when she glowed and I told her that she was a squib but I would come back with some wands so she could try them out to get a feel for her magic and start to do training exercises. I let her know she didn't need to but if she wanted to she could eventually become a witch. I let her in on what I have been doing and she told me that if I continued this way, MI5 will be looking in on me. So I asked her what I had to do and there were lots of things that needed to be done along with magic that had to be added to the fence. Along with a delay on how long I had to own the house before selling it so it would look like normal construction happened.

A few things that she suggested where:

-light notice-me-not and illusions in place to show a steady stream of workers arriving/leaving from the job

-fake construction sounds throughout the day

-materials being delivered, demolition material being carted away

-going to need to forge a ton of documents to look more like a typical house flipping business

-might want to start my own real estate firm to do the sales.

-get some out of luck squibs or people who have shit jobs to go to school so they can eventually do the accounting and sales jobs

-search high and low for some squib or magicals that are accountants fast to make plausible books for the companies.

After this I am so happy I am renting a room at the same hotel as before for meeting all the puffs. It's going to be a Saturday at noon so everyone can make it. At the meeting I am going to have to ask everyone what their parents and siblings do.

As Saturday rolled around, the paper in the morning listed Ginny as being sent to min security on the island (no dementors) for 12 weeks. She will be able to go back to school but she will be on probation. The only thing I can think of is they wanted a scape goat because nothing was mentioned about the snake. Furthermore it's being said that the Acromantula extermination will be starting today to get rid of the things. It is speculated to take all summer because all eggs and young need to be found and every 6 months after that the forest will need to be rechecked. Hagrid is being blamed for the Acromantula and is going to go to prison for a year for unleashing that pest. Another thing the paper stated is that Lucius Malfoy will become the new headmaster till a new one can be found. He states that it would take too much time if he was there permanently. That was all the interesting things the paper said today. I still can't believe there tossing Ginny under the bus like that.

Later that day he went to the conference room at the hotel, I put up some signs that said Hufflepuff. I didn't care that it said Hufflepuff because to a normal person that would just look like a messed up word. After that was set up I went to the room and started pulling out shoe boxes with people's names on them. They were only enlarged inside just enough to hold what belonged to the person. I was not going to just pass out massive storage trunks to people not in my company. At about 11:50 people with one or 2 parents started trickling in. as they came in I saw most parents where wizards or squibs and I had to assume squibs could breed wizards. Bye 12 we had almost everyone, I guess they will show up later or not at all.

When everyone was seated I let them know that all their stuff was in a shoebox up front with their name on it but I also wanted them here to ask them some questions. They all just looked at me expecting me to go on. I then told them all that I had a business in the muggle world where we used some magic and because of this I need to hire lawyers and accountants to make sure MI5 won't come looking or the revenue service. I then asked if anyone worked in that field and would be willing to work for me or help set it all up.

There was silence until one of the parents raised their hand and I nodded at them.

"So you own your own company."

"Yes several in fact. They were there first for me to keep money in the muggle world."

"Ok… and your 13."

"Yep and I have had them registered for 2 years now."

"Does anyone work for you right now?"

"Yep I have 8 employees who I fund and have paid them enough to pay off their school loan."

"… ok I don't know what else to ask I'm just flabbergasted that a 13 year old is doing this, even though my son has told me you could have already gone to university at the age of 11 if you had not gotten into Hogwarts. "

"Well let's make this simple shall we are there any lawyers here."

Only 1 hand went up

"do you think you can work with my situation and are creative enough not to launder money but more try to hide the fact that we don't use that much materials or manpower that the jobs require because of magic."

"I believe so"

"Excellent if at the end of this can you stick around, that would be great. Now how about anyone in accounting with taking into account of what I just said."

2 parents raised their hands.

"Excellent. Well if you and your kids could stick around, along with the others who talked to me and wanted a job. I would like everyone else to come up and get your things and have a great day."

Soon after the crowd of people came up and thanked me and then got there shoebox and left. On the way out Amelia Bones left me a letter with my name on it. In the end there was 11 people left 3 adults and 8 kids. "Ok just to let you know I am going to have to make you swear a confidentiality oath even your kids if they want to hear this so that I don't have you running around telling everyone. It's very basic and to the point."

I then brought up the oath again on the projector. They all read and re-read it again and finally they all swore the oath. I think the kids where the most surprised that it took. I wasn't, it was being proven to me at least one parent needed to be magical in some way for their muggle born child to have magic. I then told them all about my problems, then solutions offered and the companies I own and they would be a part of. I also told them I would buy them whatever they needed to run this company be it an office all the way to computers. I then told them about what I hoped to accomplish with the company and also the vacation house idea that was thought up. Also the big thing for the squibs is my way of making them into wizards. It might be a long hard process but in the end if they wanted they could become full witches and wizards. These people would not get a cut of the profits but would be paid 20% above what the going rate of their job was paid out as. I also told them I could care less about the hours they did and if they did it from home as long as everything was accomplished. I only wanted to be contacted for final decisions if there are not obvious solutions. I expect people to have brains and use them for the betterment of the company. At the end of every year I will hand out bonuses for how easy my life has been that year, and a % of the profit made. More actually went into the talk because it lasted 4 hours but at the end it's what it boiled down to.

The first thing they wanted was an office space rented out and computers for the 4 of them. When they mentioned that I knew I needed to higher an IT guy also. But at least I can just outsource that for initial set up.

After that they said they needed to know about the houses I have sold, and what they went for and my monthly bank statements. And it just kept going from there. I think they are going to burn through about half my profit for the year. Oh well once they are done with this and have it all set up I am going to sick them on the metals idea. Now that can make us a great profit if they can sort that shit out. But that will probably be done after the New Year so they can concentrate on everything to do with me not going to jail.

After they left and I just sat down to catch my breath, I went over everything and wished this all could have started when I left school not when I am trying to go to school and trying to be as normal as possible. After that contemplation I opened the letter Amelia. In it she said her thanks for all the information and if I needed help to contact her since I was looking out for the wellbeing of her old house and her niece.

After a week had gone by I had rented an office and bought all new computers for them. When they asked around for me about an IT guy to set up everything they found one on short notice. He said it would take a week to get them all up and running with the software the people wanted. So I guess next week is going to be busy for me when they get rolling but I bet it's going to be mostly paperwork. Yeay I can't wait. I told everyone working for me they could go back to school and I would pay for it as long as they agreed to work minimum 3 years after they paid me back, by taking 30% of there pay.

The one person I had in my information company, I had set him up in the hive in the Dorm house with his own giant tunnel. The reason for this is that I had him going through every school book from the RoR and copying them with the special books. He was then instructed to start to sort them into appropriate section depending on what's in them. Also keeping duplicates together after checking nothings been changed between them. When he is done with the trunk the elves had given him he was given another and the originals where taken back that had been sorted along with the copies. I basically had him sorting all the books and making the copies so if we lost one there would always be a backup. I don't think he's made a dent out of all the books working on it this year, there are just so many books. I know he needs help but I need to find a person who wants to do this kind of job first Hermione and Halley help when they can but it's not like they do it full time.

Finally it was time to talk to Tonks, and find out her decision.

"So Tonks what did you finally end up figuring out?"

"I want to try working for you and as long as the oath is not bad I will say it."

I slide over a piece of paper with the oath written on it. She takes a while to read it over and agrees to take it.

"So you mentioned to me that you didn't want to hurt anyone permanently but at the same time you want to help people."

"Yea I wanted to be a Auror to help stop crimes and stuff like that and also feel the thrill in it."

"Ok well Tonks this is my idea. How would you feel about robbing from the crooks?"

"But what about their wards and everything, I'm sure there houses are nasty places."

"Who said anything about stealing from the magicals? I want you to steal from all the crooks you can in the mundane world so it makes the life they are living harder than having a normal job. I want you to try and make it unprofitable to be a crook. Take all the cash, weapons and drugs, hell even there electronics. In the end I want you to leave them crying about the fact they have nothing and maybe leave a note saying get a real job." The goblin said they could wash any money I bring them and make it legal for a 12% cut but I'm sure it will be more if I start dumping stupid amounts of drug money, probably up to 40%. But that won't matter it's all free money anyways just need to funnel it into a account for S.T.A.R.S.

"But what about the statute of secrecy?"

"What about it? I don't want you walking in and blasting curses and everything. I want you going in when there asleep or not there with disillusionment charms and every other thing you can think of to stop people from seeing you on camera or person. I want them to never no you where there. Hell if you can stun them and cast a temporary muffling spell around them that will fade by the time they should wake or someone opens the door. In the end no one will know what the hell happened other than they were robbed. You can take anything you want and I will wash the cash and everything for you. Hell I know you could do this all yourself but eventually while staying with me we could just keep stealing more and more from these guys making their life hell even the ones farther abroad when others join your group. The reason I think you would stay with me, is because you have a support group if you need help with anything that came along with the research dept. when it gets going. When dealing with all the money and stuff wouldn't it be nice to know your guys aren't going to fuck you just for the money or drugs. Just think you might find some slave rings and be able to save the people there."

"it does sound like a decent idea but what about those nasty guys who never give up or get off all the time because of no proof on the polices end."

"Well as long as you know they are guilty or find truly despicable people you could always cast a hugely overpowered obliviate and that would just nuke the persons personality and they would be a fresh slate. Maybe they would become a good person the second time through. This would make it so instead of hurting them and not making you feel right you're just wiping out the worst part about them. Think of this as a clandestine group of people who are dealing with the trash of society by removing the profit from doing illegal things."

"I know I said the oath so you don't have to worry about me telling anyone or letting them know but I need to think on this."

"No problem Tonks I want you to be comfortable with this. If you can think of another idea to make money that you want to do. Bring it to me and I will see if I can start it up and have you running it."

"Wow thanks mark."

And with that she left, it took her a month to get back to me, but said she would do it. But the thing is she would only do it till more people joined and then she would ask them what they think, and if they wanted to start a protection firm. When she agreed, I made a new tunnel for her in the dorm house just for the stuff stolen from the crooks. I then showed her all the magical strengthening exercises along with giving her glasses that had an enchantment that showed magic. I told her if she ever saw magic anywhere she was stealing from, to just leave and not worry about it unless it's important and to come back and talk to everyone. I had also insisted she take Krav Maga classes for self-defense along with everyone else that worked for me. She would then practice all her spells that she would need to use to sneak around, also to casting silent stunners till I felt she was ready. I even gave her the occlumency books and legilimency so she could grab information from the crooks minds. Even though she didn't do anything but train for the first 10 months I still paid her £30,000 for the year and a place in the Dorm house to stay. I just let her know that I wanted her to take all the time she needed till she thought she was ready before going out. When she did start to go out I had magicaly enlarged her back pack so she could store everything found, and given her a Taser if worse came to it and couldn't cast anything.

Most of the summer was horrible there was so much paperwork and I had to help out the accountants and the lawyers. Thank god the girls where with me learning everything and giving suggestions. In the end we would have to buy some materials to show that we were actually using something to fix the houses and not just using cash to pay for everything, and then using that as a way to launder money. Each house cost me from £10,000 - £25,000 in fake material witch ate a 10% of possible profits then add in the mortgage because I needed it to take a reasonable time to fix the place. That material was just saved and I would try and off load it in another country the mortgage I just had to eat the cost of. All in all it was annoying and complicated. The good thing is that by the end of the year it would look like my people where construction workers that worked for me and through their labor we fixed the houses using the materials we bought. God I never thought it would take so much work and then add in the legal fees and sight permits. Luckily a couple of the people came up with a way to spoof the noise and people appearing to work. Ended up being a noise maker charm with specific noise and a mild confoundus charm that made people think people were going in and out when the noise charm was activated. The charm would only go on Monday through Friday from 9am to 3pm to not piss off the neighbors. The only good thing well a bit strange but good was now instead of good morning hugs from Hermione I got good morning cheek kisses. She then proceeded to give me more cheek kisses all day. When Halley saw this she also started to do it and gave me morning kisses. I think they are trying to soften me up for more later, and have grown tired of me not doing anything to them.

One day I tried calling out "I need to see a house elf named dobby" nothing happened. I tried again and said "I need to speak to the house elf named dobby who is in service to the Malfoys." And again nothing happened. Well that sucks I guess the elf has had to have met you, or been near you for him to hear you calling. I'm sure this is because if you just started saying random names elves would show up and that would not make sense. Well I guess I will have to get harry to call him and let him know how to free and elf but to have him not leave. If we can have him go back and act like he is still owned by them he can steal everything from them including their vault key and clear it all out. But I guess I will take care of that later.

I have looked in on islands briefly trying to find something I like and I found one, Mago island is just north of Fiji and its 22 sq. Km that would hold everything I could ever want there. Also the closest volcano is Taveuni volcano and that's a 70km away. If I remember right Mel Gibson paid 15million for it in 2005 so I have a bit of time to get the money. The company was Tokyu Corporation so I wonder if I somehow got an interview with the board if I could straight out pay them with gold, silver or Platinum. I don't know the legalities of that but I'm sure between the lawyers I get and they get it should work out some way. So I think I should attack this when I graduate in 2000, in 5th year and before then have people talk to them and see if we can make a deal. So much to do now that I actually own a company before I graduate I have only night time with the girls as our alone and fun times just to relax. This is not how I pictured my second childhood.

Finally I used some of my cash to buy a vacation house in Spain. I didn't pay that much for it because I also gave the seller a few bars of gold that made up the rest, and then some so I don't have to waste a lot of my liquid legit cash. This house was under me paid from a bank in Switzerland, I found had no issue of taking my gold it's just that if I wanted to use it for a company it was a bit dicey because then I would need to show where it came from. The bank there didn't care and just liked the fact that I was depositing straight gold into their bank there by making there worth more in the international market because they had hard bullion. I think this also had to do with the reason I am under 18. I think with all the gawking, that they just said fuck it and made it work when you deposit 2.8 million in gold. Fuck the world is messed up, but one way or another they took it and gave me back a bank book. I will keep the vacation homes out of umbrella and just under me then Fidelius it. With how they have treated me they even said if I need to deposit more then I should come back any time. I guess pure gold is easy for them to hide or take advantage of then cash with serial numbers on them. Also helps its going into a private account of a minor so the laws are different for me since I don't live there either. So now I plan to go there once a month and keep depositing more while I can. At least if I get screwed over some way it's not all bad because it's just dirt that I converted to granite then to gold using the stone. Hopefully with this money I can buy machines to tell me what it's made out of or give me a starting point. I have had my library guy put aside anything to do with alchemy for me.

We have yet to hear any information about the school or the spiders. But since we have not gotten any letter telling us school is not continuing I assume everything is on track. I don't see the spiders being an issue because I am sure someone high up is using this as a great way to get the silk and baby spiders to farm them. The snake on the other hand I am sure is still down there, and I am not going down there till its dead or I have a way to do it remotely. I will have to see if there are such things as golems and if there are then look for remote controlled golems. Guess that's more stuff for Tom in the library to look for, I need to find more people to do it. God so much to do, and not enough time. I really want Harry to break into the ministry again because if they do I am so following and raiding the shit out of it and its time turners. The death eaters must have used their pull to get rid of everyone for the night. If they are going to leave the ministry open for a looting who am I to refuse but that is so far away if that timeline still stays. I think this year is not going to be like I expect it. Yeay for me throwing stones in a glass house and expecting everything not to get wrecked.
