Chapter Six...
Susan's Birthday...
The month of August is the start of a new day for Harry and Susan as they woke up refreshed after yesterdays activities. While Susan walked to the bathroom, Harry walked down the stairs he decided to head down to Diagon Alley with Andromeda. Amelia walked over to Harry and whispered, "getting her present?" Harry nodded to her and went to Andromeda, took her hand to apparate to Diagon Alley.
As they got to The Leakey Cauldron, they were met by Tom the Barman. "Ah, Lady Tonks." said Tom. "How are you today?"
Andromeda smiled and said, "i'm doing good Tom, i'm just taking Harry here to Gringotts."
"Oh rest my soul, it's Harry potter." said Tom, catching the crowds attention.
"I really wish people wouldn't stare at me, it's very uncomfortable." thought Harry.
"Let's just go to Gringotts Bank and take care of business." said Andromeda. "i really wish you would've brought Susan with you."
"Same here, i don't even know the people in the Leakey Cauldron." said Harry.
As they walked through Diagon Alley, the step up to a large white Marble building. Harry looked amazed at the inside that he walked up o the teller's desk, and seen the goblin look at him.
"Ahem, Harry Potter wishes to make a withdrawl." said Andromeda.
"Hmm, and does Mr. Potter have his key?" asked the teller.
"Key?" asked Harry.
"Yes Key, do you have it?" asked the bank manager.
Harry shook his head, as the Potter accountant walked over. "Follow me, please." said Griphook. They followed him into his office and he closed the door. "Welcome back to the Wizarding World Heir Potter."
"Thank you, Griphook." said Harry, "So what's this meeting about?"
"These are what the meeting is about." said Griphook, sliding the document. "This is your inheritance test. and this is your Parents will."
Name: Hadrin James Potter
Father's Name: James Fleamont Potter
Mother's Name: Lily J. Potter (Evans)
Grandfather's name: Fleamont Potter
Grandmother's Name: Euphemia Potter (Fawley)
Godfather's Name: Sirius Orion Black
Godmother's Name: Alice Longbottom (Prewett)
Betrothal Contract with: Susan Amelia Bones
Maternal Aunt: Petunia Dursley (Evans)
"Wow, this is a lot." said Harry.
"yes it is." said Andromeda. "is there anything else?"
"yes, there's a name missing." said Griphook.
"Wait, what do you mean?" asked Andromeda.
Griphook waved his hand under Harry's name as another name appeared. Twin Sister's Name: Emily Jean Potter. Harry read the name to his surprise. Remembering what Remus muttered on his birthday, He looked at Andromeda and back at the name, sat back and said "so it's true."
"Yes, Lord Potter." said Griphook. "your little sister was supposedly killed the night your parents were murdered."
"But you're not certain?" asked Andromeda. "Because there's no death record in the Auror office."
"We believe that she's somewhere in the muggle world." said Griphook.
"hmm, Sounds like We're going to have to find her." said Andromeda.
As though looking at the last will and testament, Andromeda noticed the name of the Secret Keeper. "No, it can't be, it can't be him!"
"Oh, i see what you're reading." said Griphook. "Yes, it turns out that Mr. Pettigrew was the secret keeper for the Fidelious Charm on the cottage in Godrics Hollow."
"But, he'd died!" said Andromeda. "How could he betray the Potters?"
"That we need to solve, perhaps the DMLE could help this issue." said Ragnok.
"I'll report this to Madam Bones." said Andromeda. "Come on Harry, we've got some shopping to do."
Going through shops, Harry found the perfect gift for Susan: a diamond bracelet. He walked up to the register and paid for the bracelet, then Andromeda took him to get a butter beer, then back to the leakey Cauldron. as they got back to Bones manor, Harry stumbled out of the fireplace until he was tackled to the ground by Susan. She pummled him with kisses before helping him up.
"Susan, let him sit down." said Amelia. "Then snog him senseless."
Andromeda laughed at that statement, then cleared her throat. "anyway, this needs your attention, Amelia." handing her the file from Gringotts Bank. Amelia looked through it until she asked the same question that Andromeda asked earlier that day.
"Why would he betray James and Lily if he's dead?"
Andromeda showed her another folder that had a copy of James and Lily's last will and testament. "This is why, but there's no possible way to find him."
"if he was their secret Keeper, then why wasn't he captured?" asked Amelia..
"No telling... But, it seems that he blamed Sirius for the betrayal of James and Lily." said Andromeda.
Susan sat down with Harry trying to find something. "Harry, what took you so long?" she asked.
"you're not going to find it." thought Harry.
"How did- Nevermind." said Susan.
"Trade secret, besides your birthday is tomorrow, love." said Harry.
"What about tonight?" thought Susan. "i can snog you senseless."
Harry thought about it, until they went out onto the pitch and flew around a bit. Susan looked at him and traced her fingers down his back as they kissed. "Mmm, Harry, you're an amazing kisser." said Susan as she slid her hand into his pants. he stopped her and led her into a disclosed area, and gave her a chain.
"Harry, what's this?" she asked, taking the chain from him to take a closer look to see the initials S.B. on the charm. She looked up at him and kissed him.
"I don't know why you keep putting your hand into my jeans." thought Harry.
"It's the desire in our aura's." thought Susan. as they got back onto their brooms and flew back to the manor from the pitch.
Remembering the words Sexual Desire in the notes from his mother. when they got into the house it was dark, so he led Susan through the foyer and walked through the manor only to find a cake with candles sitting on the table along with Hedwig holding a Letter in her beak.
Susan opened the letter to read it.

find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.
Term begins on September 1st. We await your owl by no later than August 5th.
Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall,
Deputy Headmistress.
Susan was fixing to ask Harry something until the floo system opened to reveal Minerva McGonagall coming through. Amelia lifted her wand at her as the Deputy Headmistress walked into the kitchen. "Minerva, if that's you then you know the answer to this question."
"Ask away Amelia." said Minerva.
"Who is the name of your Godson?" asked Amelia.
"James Potter is my Godson." said Minerva. causing Amelia to lower her wand. she turned to Susan. " Lady Bones, Happy Birthday, Now Allow me to introduce myself. I am Professor McGonagall, Congratulations for getting into Hogwarts... Now we-" Amelia cleared her throat, getting her attention. "Do we need to discuss something?"
"Yes Minerva, we do need to discuss something." said Amelia pointing to the joined hands of Harry and Susan.
Noticing the glow in between them, minerva gasped. "Oh dear! now i know." she said sitting down. "Looks like this is Albus's fault for sending him to those awful Muggles."
"We'll get to him in a moment. Now, Start talking." said Amelia. "I want to know why Dumbledore sent Heir Potter to Petunia, when he wasn't supposed to go to unless it was a last resort."
Minerva got into the conversation about the night James and Lily were killed up to hours later when Sirius showed up to the cottage. Amelia looked at her and gave her a stern look, took out the Inheritance test that showed Harry's entire family. Minerva looked at her. "What does this have to do with James and Lily?" she asked.
"Look under Heir Potter's name, Minerva." said Andromeda, waving her wand on the document.
"Emily Jean Potter?" asked Minerva. "But- But there's no,"
"Now, Where's the girl?" said Amelia, glaring at her with a smirk.
"Wait a moment..." said Minerva, as she handed Amelia a rolled up piece of parchment. "Here's the list of students that are coming to Hogwarts."
Amelia looked at the names on the piece of Parchment, and seen names of first years.
Hannah Abbott
Susan Bones
Justin Finch-Fletchley
Pansy Parkinson
Daphne Greengrass
Tracey Davis
Hermione Granger
Harry potter
Millicent Bullstrode
Draco Malfoy
Vincent Crabbe
Gregory Goyle
Ronald Weasley
Seeing that there's no Emily Potter on the list, had her confused. "um Minerva, there seems to be a name missing." said Amelia.
"A name missing?" asked Minerva. "i don't know what you mean."
"That's not what Ragnok told me this morning." said Andromeda.
"Except that's the mystery," said Amelia. "We've got no death record of an Emily Jean Potter on file at the DMLE."
"That's impossible!" Shouted Minerva.
"It is possible." said Amelia, before she turned to Harry and Susan, "Harry, can you do me a favor and take Susan somewhere private?"
"Of course." said Harry. "come on Susie, let's go lay down and snog."
"Now that they're gone upstairs, Tell me what Albus knows." said Amelia. "and what's this about Sirius Black being thrown into Azkaban Prison without a trial?"
Minerva started talking about the night she and Albus dropped Harry off at the Dursley's where she had seen the scar and her not knowing that Lily and James were dead, the best part that she told that caught Amelia's attention was the shocking lightning that she had received from Harry.
"Wait, Harry's aura had shocked you?" asked Amelia. "So it started early."
"Damn, looks like it'll be marriage quarters when they get older." said Minerva.
"Of course." said Amelia.
