'Thoughts'
[Kitten speech]
Fay Davet
Lucas and his mother walked into Harry's bedroom only to smile at the sight of the before them. Harry was once again curled up like a cat in the middle of his bed. His pillow was under him and the blankets were snuggled around him. Fay summoned a camera and took a picture. Lucas shook his head at his mother's antics.
He walked up to Harry and shook his shoulder gently. Harry looked at Lucas sleepily.
"It's time to get up Harry." He said to the neko.
"M'kay." Harry said and then proceeded to stretch out across his bed in a cat-like manner, much to Lucas and Fay's amusement.
"Harry this is my mother, Fay Davet." Harry looked at the women.
"Nice to meet you, ma'am." He said politely.
"Oh what a sweet one." Fay said. "Sweetheart you may call me Fay."
"Okay."
They went to the dining room to see that Severus had again beat them to the table. When they were all seated, lunch had appeared. Severus served Harry first and then himself. He would give Lucas and Fay a list of foods for Harry to eat later.
"Thank you, Severus." He said.
Severus smiled. "You are welcome, Harry."
They all smiled when Harry started to eat the fish that Severus put on his plate. Harry was in heaven when he tasted the fish. It was delicious.
When they finished they went into Severus' study to talk about what they were going to do with Harry. Severus sat behind his desk, Lucas and Fay sat on the chairs in front of the desks, and Harry sat in Fay's lap. She rubbed his head and was rewarded with Harry purring.
"Harry, since you are my son's mate it isn't wise for you to live together." Fay said.
"Why?" Harry asked.
"You need a parental figure right now and my son can't fill that role since he is your mate." She explained.
"Oh, but if I don't live with him will I be able to see him?" He asked, worried.
"Yes Harry. I will visit you, but we want to figure out where you will live." He said.
"I wish I could take you with me, but in a week I return to Egypt for my job." Fay said as she cuddles the young neko.
"Severus can't take you since he has to return to school in two months." Lucas said.
Severus was silent this whole time and was thinking over solutions. As he listened to his best friend and his mother talk to Harry he had gotten an idea.
"Fay, how often do you get called out on a job?" Severus asked.
"Once in a while, why?" She looked at him in confusion.
"I can take care of him for the next two months. I can assume that your job will be over by the time I go back to teaching. You would take over then. When you do have to go out on a job you could take him with you and have one of your house elves take care of him until you come home for the day." Severus explained. "The house elf will only watch him when you are at your job. You would still be able to take care of him."
"Oh, so a house elf would be my babysitter while Fay is at work." Harry stated.
"Yes." He said.
"You're a genius, Severus." Lucas said.
"What do you think, Harry?" Severus asked.
"Okay." Harry said, but he frowned.
"What is the matter, Harry?" He asked.
"Will I be able to see you after I start living with Fay?" Harry asked as he stared at Severus.
"I will visit you during summer break and I will visit during the school year when I am able to." Severus said with a small smile.
"Yay!" Harry exclaimed.
"Tomorrow, we should go to Gringotts." Fay told them. "I want to know how this young child became a neko and I want to make sure that nobody has stolen from him." The two adults nodded and Harry had stopped focusing on the conversation since Fay had resumed petting him.
After that Harry went to his room with Fay to play and Severus went to his lab. Lucas went into the library to find more books about mates and nekos. Fay had decided to use a spell that would show if Harry and her son were mates or not, although she had little doubt that they were mates. She had observed the way they interacted with each other.
"Harry sweetheart, can you sit on the bed for a minute?" She looked at him.
"Okay." He said.
"I am going to cast a spell to confirm that you are mates." She saw the confused look on Harry's face. "Before I go back to Egypt, I am going to go to France and register you and my son as mates. This spell will give the French ministry of magic proof that you too are mates."
Harry smiled and nodded when she had finished explaining. She casted the spell coniugem ostende, or reveal mate. He glowed white for a second before a parchment with a name popped into view, in between them both. Fay grabbed the parchment and smiled when she saw the name. She turned the parchment over to Harry so that he could see the name. Harry smiled when he saw that the name was Lucas Davet.
Fay put the parchment into her endless pouch and started to play with Harry. They continued to play until dinner. They all ate in silence and Lucas put Harry to bed.
The next day, Harry was awakened by Fay. She helped him get dressed, then they both went to the dining room for breakfast. After breakfast, they glamoured Harry's appearance and flooed to the Leaky Cauldron. They walked into Gringotts and since there weren't any wizards or witches around they removed the glamour.
Severus walked up to a goblin at the counter. The goblin sneered down at the wizard.
"May I help you, Lord Prince?" He asked.
"Yes, I have with me young mister Potter. I would like you to check his vaults to see if anything is stolen and I want to have mister Potter's family tree checked." Severus said in a voice that rang with authority.
"Of course, Follow me." The goblin left the counter and led the group to his office. They sat in the chairs offered except for Harry who again sat on Fay's lap.
"I will have the Potter accountant check and if Mr. Potter has indeed been stolen from we will get it back immediately. Those who have stolen will be charged with thievery and punished." He told them.
"Thank you." Harry said, causing the goblin to stare at him.
"I can see why you would want the Potter family checked." The goblin brought out a basin and filled it with a potion. "Mr. Potter, please add a few drops of blood." He handed Fay a dagger.
Harry flinched away from the dagger in fright. Fay took his hand gently and made a small cut on Harry's pointer finger. Harry whimpered at the pain it caused him and his eyes teared up. He put his finger over the basin and let the blood drop in there a few times before Lucas took his finger and healed it. He picked Harry up and placed him on his lap. The neko cuddled into his chest, but didn't cry.
After a few minutes, the potion began to bubble and smoke rised from it. The goblin carefully placed a piece of parchment into the basin. The potion bubbled more before it disappeared and all that was left in the basin was the parchment. The goblin took it out and looked it over, before he handed it to Severus.
The name of a person who had dominant creature blood in them showed up in different colors. Nekos showed up in a light blue. On the parchment the name that showed up blue was Harry's great grandmother, Alexandria Potter. Severus gave the parchment to Harry and pointed to Alexandria.
The Potter accountant entered the office. He spoke to the other goblin in their native tongue. When he was done, he turned towards the group.
"I am the Potter accountant, Gobblenock. I am sorry to say that the vaults belonging to Mr. Potter have indeed been stolen from. It seems that Dumbledore has acquired keys to several vaults and has been taking money from them. He has also taken heirlooms from the vaults as well. I can tell you this though, I haven't been near those vaults since Lord and Lady Potter went into hiding with their son." He told them.
"If you didn't show him the vaults, who did?" Fay asked.
"I have no idea. I have already started the process of getting everything that was stolen back. Gabblehook and I will be looking for the goblin responsible and have them punished immediately." The goblin assured them.
"Thank you." Harry said from where he was cuddled into Lucas' chest.
The goblins nodded and the group took their leave. Before they left Gringotts they reapplied the glamour on Harry.
