Harry woke up the next day, feeling very well rested. Looking over at the wall, Harry smiled at the portraits of his parents. "Morning Mum. Morning Dad. And morning Hedwig." Said Harry. "Good morning my baby, I still can't believe you have grown so much. It seems like only yesterday that I could pick you up and hold you." Said the portrait of Lily Potter-Evans.
"Yes Son,you have sprouted a great deal from a small baby to a child of almost twelve." Said James Potter. He peered over his glasses. "Harry, you said yesterday that you won a bet with the headmistress here?" "Yes dad, I did. Today, Damian, Bianca and I are going to Maimi Magiacal Mall. Why do you ask?" James Potter looked straight at his son, and Harry also saw that Lily looked at him.
"Harry, when you are at the Magical Mall, I order you to go the the Gringotts branch there and ask for a full account review of the last twenty years of ANY and all vaults." Said James Potter "Why?" Asked Harry, he had hoped he could do some window shopping and maybe eating some icecream. Now he was orderedd by his parents paintings to go to the bank. "Harry, as much as we trust you, we don't trust Dumbledore. He placed out paintings inside one of his secret vaults at his office at Hogwarts. He even placed our frames under a stasis charm for Merlins sake" Said Lily
"More than that. Dumbledore has got seven years of time to rob the Potter vaults empty. Even I know not the absolute maximum of the Potter vaults, but I do know that they are massive." Said James, looking at Harry.
"Very well, dad." Harry said. I'll go looking at the vaults."
"I knew he was smart. He's got that from me" Said James, as Lily entered his portriat. "NO, he's got that from me" Said Lily. "He has my eyes, and you know what they say. The eyes are the window to the soul." Harry left to dress in his bathroom, while his parents were fighting who had passed their brains to Harry. Since Harry had gotten his parents back, Harry had spent a lot more time in his room to know his parents. The feeling that he was wanted, the feeling that he was loved, it never happened when he was at the Dursley's. And although Pacific and it's staff had welcomed him with open arms, Harry still felt like he should have his parents here.
As Harry left the bathroom, fully dresses his parents waved him over.
"Harry, can you call Sirius for me? I'd love to talk to him." Said James as he and Lily held each other. "Sirius?" Asked Harry. "Who is Sirius?"
"Who's Sirius?" repeated James with shock on his face. "You know. Sirius Black, your godfather?" Seeing Harry looking at him with a blank face, james did something very strange. He fainted.
"Huh, didn't know we could faint as a portrait" Said Lily, as she looked from James back to Harry.
"Harry dear, you need to listen carefully. Sirius Black is your godfather. When he took the oath to be your godfather, he swore on his magic and life that he would protect you if James and myself were unable to do so."
"Well I don't know this Sirius character. I can ask Headmistress Summers if she knows him." Said Harry and as he looked at the bottom of the frame, James came back. "Who is this Headmistress Summers, Harry?" Asked James after became awake again and sat on the chair in the portrait next to Lily. Before Harry could answer this question, the door was opened from the outside, and Headmistress Summers entered.
"Harry, I know that you have many more questions to ask, but we really must move." Said Alexandra, before she waved her wand at the two paintings of Lily and James and Harry watched with awe, as the paintings were shrinking. "Mister Potter, please place your parents in your robes and let's get going. Your friends are waiting at the entrance."
Harry soon was with his friends, Bianca and Damian in the Magical Mall of Miami. Alexandra had managed to get two extra teachers for the trio of kids. Professors Martina Estill and Lizzie Primrose, from Charms and Herbology respectively had jumped at the chanse to go with the children.
So Harry, who explained to the headmistress what he was told to do by his parents left for Gingotts, while Bianca and Damian dragged the teachers to the magical game store. In it, Damian soon was lost between the displayed radio than could pick up both muggle and magical radio signals, and the newest board game. Here you had to build your own city, while managing your income.
Bianca had dragged her professor to the new muggle enchanted stuff. Bianca looked between a pen, that could write in hundred colours, and a very early laptop.
"So Mister Potter, you want to know more about your account?"Asked the goblin. Harry nodded firmly to the goblin. It was both a sign of respect to the Goblin clans and a sign that Harry was a human who viewed himself at equal standing with the Goblins.
"Yes. I want to know if there is a will in the vaults, a full inventory and I want to know what has happened in the last twenty years with my accounts" Said Harry. He looked directly at the Goblin's eyes. The goblin nodded and started to call out in a strange language, something what seemed orders to another goblin who bowed and moved away.
"Please take a seat, it may take a while." Said the goblin as he pointed at a bench. Dispite the hardness of the bench, the seating was quite soft. "They must have placed a cushioning charm on this bench" Said Harry as he and Alexandra sat down.
"Yes, they must have." Said Alexandra. She watched as Harry removed both portraits form his robes pocket, and started to talk softly to his parents. "Mum, Dad. I'd like to introduce Headmistress Summers from Pacific Academy" Harry said, as he turned the portraits slightly.
"Professor. Than you for allowing Harry a stay at your school. We know that we wanted to sent Harry to Pacific, after your first visit, but it seems that the headmaster of Hogwarts got other plans." Said Lily, as James nodded with his wife.
"Mr. and Mrs. Potter. You should be proud of your son. He is one of our best students, and a real gentlemen when it comes to our female students. He even helped Evelyn, when her baby had to be changed."
"Yeah, and I'll never do that again. Who knew that little babies could stink so much?" Said Harry, as he remembered the smell from little Fabian. Fabian might have been cute to hang around with, when he needed to be cleaned, Fabian was a nightmare.
"Now don't say that Harry" said his mother, who pointed her finger at him. "I can remember very well, that you were an absolute angel when you were a baby. And you had the softest baby bottoms."
Harry looked at his mother with whide eyes, while Alexandra tried to surpress a laugh. "Thanks mum, now I know I'm scarred for the rest fo my life" Said Harry as he placed his head on his hands.
"Mister Potter?" A voice asked. Harry looked up from his hands and saw a very well dressed goblin standing there. "If you will follow me please?"
Harry was furious. If he was a fire elemental, he would have burned down the entire goblin bank in the Magical Mall. He was not angry at the goblins, for they had protected his multi million fortune from Dumbledore. No, he was pisses that while his finance were well protected, Harry had learned that the Goblins knew what went on at Privit Drive, and did not a thing. They only cared if he died, what meant that his life was only as much worth as the Galleons in his accounts.
Luckily, Harry had a lot of money, and only after a hard negotiation, where Harry threatened to remove his gold from the goblins to the faries in Australia, did they actually became quite friendly.
Harry was also angry that Dumbledore had removed more than fife hundred thousand Galleons from his trust accound. Although the Goblins assured Harry that that amount was barely a percent of Harry's total worth, Harry still wanted to get it back.
"Harry, you need to calm down" said Alexandra, as she sat down at the school's recreation room. Harry was not listening, as he created more and more gusts of wind. In his hands Harry had placed his parents will. Dumbledore had been a witness to the creation of the will, and he ignored everything that was written on the parchment. One thing that wound Harry more up than any other thing, was the fact that the Dursley's were named in the will as 'unfit to properly care for Harry James Potter, and were forbidden to even make contact.
Dumbledore himself was also mentioned to 'stay away from Harry's life, and the life of his true Guardian', who was Sirius Black.
There was a whole list of Guardian's for Harry, if James and Lily would die before him.
Minerva McGonagall, Theodore Tonks, Amelia Bones, Remus Lupin and a dozen others.
"Harry" Harry shock from the forcefull ness of his name, as Alexandra had shouted it. "I know you are angry, but you must keep control of your emotions. If you loose one more gust of wind, no matter the size, I'll place you under house camp detention"
Harry paled. 'House camp detention' was a form of punishment for students who stayed at Pacific. The detention ranged from cleaning the unicorn stables, to cleaning the owl tower. "Yes ma'am." Said Harry softly, his anger forgotten and the gusts of wind gone.
"Wow, Lily. She did what would take Remus hours, and she did it in a few seconds" Said James, as he sat with Lily in his portrait. "You would to, if she treatened you with House Camp detentions" Snapped Harry back at his father. His control failed for a second and that was all that was need to create a small gust of wind. "Harry." Said Alexandra, as she pointed at the gust of wind that vanished. Harry paled, and looked at his headmistress. "You are grounded for a whole month, and you'll help with the cleaning of stable five" Said Alexandra, in her 'I am the boss and you'll do what you're told' voice.
"Yes Ma'am" Said Harry softly.
"How bad can it be?" Asked James, as Harry left the room. Alexandra turned to James and Lily.
"Bad enough that it will never happen again" She said and left the room. Leaving behind a speechless James and Lily Potter.
