Chapter 4

Sasha sighed as she thought about her upcoming year. She needed to defeat Voldemort, but how? She didn't think she could duel him. Especially after watching the duel between Voldemort and Dumbledore back in the department of mysteries. That was just intense. She would need to be extremely powerful. She would need to be able to cast non verbal spells, be able to do the unforgivables and learn occlumency.

"Urghhhhh!" she groaned.

"You ok?" Draco asked from the other couch.

"Yeah fine... Just stuff on my mind."

"Ok... But can I just say... I think you need sleep... You look like shit." he smirked.

"Sod off ferret!" Draco gave Sasha a puzzled look. Sasha inwardly cursed but she kept her smirk in place. Sasha didn't know about the ferret incident.

"Ferret?"

"Yes... Ronald Weasley has been telling me some VERY interesting stories. Quidditch, fights and... Ferrets." she said with a straight face but then burst into laughter. "Hahahaha... D..did you really... Hahaa get turned into a- a- a- FERRET! And then the Professor put you down Crabbe's trousers! Hahahaha Draco!" she said between fits of laughter. Draco glared at her. "Ok... I'm sorry Draco... I just couldn't help!" she walked over and peck him on the cheek and then up to her room. She sighed. 'Wow that was a close one. BUT I JUST KISSED MALFOY ON THE CHEEK!' Sasha groaned. 'He is going to slaughter me when he finds out I'm actually Harry Potter!' Sasha walked over to her bed and collapsed on it falling asleep instantly.

A book... A thick book. Vault 009. Containing the unimaginable... Powers. Magic. Wealth. The room was vague but a voice whispered in his head. The master of the Esmeralda Almas. Green gems scattered the room.

Suddenly it changed

Harry was say in a dark room petting something scaly, he looked down and saw Nagini. "Pettigrew!"

"Y...yes my lord?" the plump man stuttered with watery eyes.

"Have you found Ragnok yet?" he asked silkily.

"Yes my lord."

"Bring him in then!" he snapped. Why did he have such an incompetent fool as followers. Harry wanted nothing more than to do the world a favor and to 'Avada Kedavra' him but no. Wormtail was one hundred percent loyal. He could never free a servant as such. A few moments later Wormtail walked back in with a Goblin.

"Let me go this instant! I will not take this!" the old Goblin snapped.

"Ragnok... I assumed you have heard of the master of the emerald souls?" the goblins eyes widened.

"No such thing exists!" he spat.

"You are lying. Crucio!" Harry yelled out and smirked as he watched the goblin writhe in pain on the floor. "Where is it Ragnok? You are one of the oldest THINGS that would know where the book is kept. You should know!"

"I have never heard of it!" he snapped. "I am not lying. I do not know if it exists or if it does, I do not know of its current whereabouts!" Harry felt his anger rise.

"CRUCIO!" he screamed.

"AHHHHHHHHH!"

"SASHA! Open the door! Are you ok?" Sasha groaned as Draco ran in. She was panting hard.

"What happened?" he gasped at her pale face.

"Just a bad dream... I'll be fine... Sorry..." she muttered and fell asleep.

"Oh Sasha." he sighed and began to stroke her hair.

XxxX

Sasha groaned as she woke up. She felt a firm body next to her. She began to panic. She snapped up causing her head to collide with another.

"Fuck!" groaned Draco.

"Oh Draco! Sorry! What are you doing here?" she asked rubbing her own forehead.

"I must have fallen asleep after you woke up from the dream." he said.

"Oh sorry about that as well, I usually put up silencing spells but I forgot." Draco raised an eyebrow at her.

"Usually? So you have these dreams a lot?"

"Look I don't want to talk about it, let's just get ready for breakfast." He frowned stubbornly but nodded a moment later.

XxxX

"Hey Sasha." said Hermione as she took a seat opposite her in the library.

"Hi Hermione." Sasha looked nervous.

"Are you ok?"

"Err Hermione... Can you keep what I'm about to say quiet?" Hermione smiled.

"Yes, of course Sasha, you can talk to me about anything." Sasha nodded.

"Well um do you know anything about the master of Esmeralda Almas?" Hermione gasped her eyes twinkling in delight.

"Wow yes I've heard of it alright. Well Esmeralda Almas means Emerald Souls in Galician. The phrase 'Master of Emerald Souls' means the master of the powerful souls. The jem Emerald in a small area called Galicia... Which is in Spain, is considered powerful. Now this doesn't mean that the real master is an actual master of souls - You see Ines de Castro and Xesús Ferro Ruibal were one of the first few magical people ever. They created the book of Esmeralda Almas. There is only one true master of the book and it had a master the day it was created. If someone got their hands on the book they would have the ultimate wealth, ultimate power and ultimate magic. They would basically become unbeatable."

"Where is it?"

"No one knows... The thing is... It is hidden somewhere where it only allows you to get access to it if you have the blood that belongs to the real owner. Though, once it has been opened, if treated carelessly, anyone can get their hands on it."

"Wow... Ok but how do you know so much?" Sasha gasped.

"I chose it to research on it in history of magic last year!" she smiled. "Anyway... Why did you want to know?" She had to warn the order. They needed to know that Voldemort was searching for it.

"I dunno… I heard- I heard some Slytherin's mentioning it earlier ago... They were talking about Voldemort..." Hermione gasped.

"Oh no!" she exclaimed. "I have to go!" she said and ran off. Sasha sighed in relief. There was no way she could claim he had a dream about Voldemort looking for the Esmeralda Almas, but if he 'heard' Slytherins talking about it, then that was a different way to warn the order.

XxxX

'Vault 009? What did that mean? It was at Gringotts for sure but was that where the book was?' Sasha hit her head on the wall.

"Ouch that sounds painful." Said a voice. Sasha snapped her head around and saw Blaise leaning against the wall.

"Oh hey Blaise." he smiled and took a seat next to Sasha. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her onto his lap. "Blaise!" she yelled in utter humiliation. "Y... You know!" she whispered reminding him that she was Harry.

"I just can't help myself, you are one delicious girl!" he smirked kissing her full on the lips sloppily.

"Get a room!" jeered a voice. They looked up to see Draco stood there. Sasha felt compelled to get off Blaise's lap so she did.

"Err... That was just all Blaise messing around..." she said standing in front of the blond.

"Ok?" he asked with a look that said 'why are you telling me this?' Sasha blushed bright red and walked off.

XxxX

"I expect a three foot essay on the properties of lofwood by next week. Leave. Miss Portte please stay behind for a moment." Sasha cringed but walked over to her professor anyway.

"Yes sir?"

"Hmm there is something about you Portte. I really don't know what- I was hoping the you will tell me where exactly are you from?"

"Durmstrang sir!"

"You don't have an accent."

"I lived here... In York when my care home applied for me to go there..."

"Hmm..." Snape stared at her and Sasha instantly looked away knowing he was trying to use legilmency against her. "Just leave!" he snapped. "I will figure it out... All these lies after lies..." he smirked. Sasha quickly left feeling worse than ever. She wasn't going to last a year. Not even half! Maybe just a month or so. One person already knew and another one was about to find out and it was only the third day of school.

XxxX

The next six weeks flew by and it was now mid October. Sasha was leaning against Draco both trying to come up for with the Halloween Party ideas.

"Hey Sash?"

"Yeah Dray?"

"Have you ever err... Have you ever loved someone?" he asked hesitantly.

"No... I don't think so. Have you?" Draco didn't answer. "You have haven't you? Who was it?"

"It's no one... Forget it."

"So you still love the person now? Who is it?"

"I... I can't be with her she's gone." he said his voice breaking slightly.

"Draco come here." he whispered and took him into her arms. He silently cried on her shoulder.

"I was sure she was gone at first but then I thought I found her... But I don't want to talk about her because I've accepted she's gone." he sobbed quietly. Sasha felt awful. She was actually going to be murdered when she reveals herself as Harry Potter. Sasha let the confused boy cry until he was done. "Sorry." he muttered.

"It's fine Draco..."

"How come you didn't ask who it is? Not that I'm complaining..."

"Well I don't want to push at you. I know you were very vague for a reason and maybe someday... You could tell me about her." Draco smiled. "Hey... Dray I need to go talk to the headmaster about something... I'll see you later."

She ran up to Dumbledore's gargoyle. 'Urghh the password!' Sasha sighed but was stunned when the Gargoyle began twisting revealing the stone steps. She climbed up them and knocked on the wooden door.

"Come in." Sasha walked in and smiled when she saw Dumbledore sat at his desk. "Hello Miss Portte. What do I owe this pleasure?"

"Err hi sir... I need to go to Gringotts." She fidgeted.

"Why is that?" he asked curiously.

"For erm- some money."

"I can withdraw the amount you want from Hogwarts. You just..."

"No it's family business!" she said quickly.

"Miss Portte." he warned.

"Look I can't tell you but it's definitely for a good cause." she pleaded.

"Ok I trust you." he beamed.

"Wha..." she asked clearly confused.

"That gargoyle only lets people in like that who are completely loyal to me." he smiled.

"Oh thank you sir! When can I go?"

"As it is a weekend you have my permission to go however Professor Snape must accompany you." he said. Sasha inwardly groaned.

"Err can it be another Professor instead?" she asked hopefully.

"No, Professor Snape is your head of house so I shall call him." ten minutes later, Sasha and Snape stood in Diagon Alley. Snape was scowling at the raven haired girl. They walked into Gringotts and up to a Goblin that Sasha recognized as Griphook.

"Hello... Can I get into... Vault number..." she looked at Snape who was looking away not paying attention to the girl. "Vault 009?" the Goblin paused and considered Sasha. No one noticed the look of suspicion and surprise cross Snape's face.

"Miss..."

"Portte, Miss. Portte."

"Miss Portte. Are you aware of what is in the vault?"

"Vaguely..." she spoke. "Are you?"

"No but people who have visited this vault... Have died trying to get in, I don't think you will be able to get in."

"I do. I'm confident... This is really important." she said. Snape looked at her.

"You will not be going!"

"I will!"

"You won't. We are going back to school right now young lady!" he snapped grabbing her wrist.

"I'm sorry about this Professor but petrificalas totalus!" she said with her wand out. "Can you look after him. Take me down there." she said boldly. They got into the cart and it took 45 minutes to get to the vault. When Sasha got she vomited into a basket next to the vault. "happen a lot?" she asked warily. The goblin merely nodded. The stepped to the door which had hundreds of iron locks all the way around it. At the middle there was a hand print.

"I must leave now. Good luck, to try and get in, you must cover the front of you hand with blood and press it against the gap. If you survive and you need a cart, push this red button and I will come down." He said and left. Sasha swallowed thickly.

"Finite Incantatum." she whispered and Harry Potter returned. He got out a knife and slit his wrist wincing as the pain began. He then held his cut wrist over his right hand letting the blood drip onto it. A few moments later he put the hand giants the door. Slowly one by one... Lock by lock... The door began to unlock itself. Harry gasped and waited.

He pushed open the door and gasped. "Oh my!" green, no, emerald gems everywhere! The room was large... As big as football pitch. The jewls were endless but on the ground there were heaps and heaps of coins. He looked towards the middle and saw the book. He took a deep breath and took a step I'm. Suddenly a cool wind surrounded him and he felt himself levitate off the ground. There was a green light that flew into him and Harry felt inevitable. He opened the book but was stunned to realize that there were no pages. It was just a box. There was a ring and a note. Harry took the note and read.

Dear heir,

If you found this then I congratulate you... Me and Xesús created this book and vault. You now have the ultimate power and are the Master of the Esmeralda Almas.

Harry muttered the glamor charm and stepped outside of the vault. He pushed the red button and waited ten minutes. Finally, Griphook returned looking shocked.

"You got in." he stated to himself rather than to Sasha.

"Um yes... By the way, if you transfer this vault into my own... Will you know what is in the vault?"

"No. We won't..." he said.

"Ok." Sasha didn't know if she wanted to transfer it to her account or not. She'd rather it was transferred to Harry Potter's vault. She stayed silent during the trip and when the reached the reception she stood. "See you I guess."

"Goodbye miss." she began to walk when she hear her voice.

"I know who you are..." Sasha gave and inaudible gasp and turned abruptly.

"Wh... Wh... What? I'm Sasha..."

"It was more than strange when Ragnok and I found that Harry Potter's vault hadn't sealed itself. Usually when a wizard dies, the vault seals until the will had been confirmed. If there is no will, it will also seal itself. We confirmed Mr. Potter's will but the Vault won't open itself to anyone in the will. Harry Potter is alive and you are him. I have faith in you Mr. Potter. You will defeat You-Know-Who. Oh and I will transfer all contents of vault 009 into Harry Potter's."

"Thank you Griphook." she smiled and walked towards the exit she saw Snape and slowly trotted towards him hoping her punishment wouldn't be too harsh. Snape looked at her with absolute fury in his eyes. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her out. Flooing straight to Dumbledore's office from Tom, the barman's private floo, she tumbled out.

"SASHA!" she heard and a white bundle flew at her pushing her back onto the floor.

"Ow." she groaned. She stood and saw Draco stood there.

"WHERE THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN?!" he yelled furiously. "Do you even know how scared I was?" he said quietly. He gripped her wrist. "Don't you ever do that again. Don't you ever leave me for that long again." he said in a whisper pulling her into a sweet embrace. Sasha felt tears come to her eyes. 'how could she keep this up? What would happen once Voldemort died?' Sasha held back the tears that were threatening to fall.

"I won't ever leave you Draco. I promise." she said feeling the guilt as she said the words. It was then when Sasha realised... She was falling for Draco Malfoy.
