harry, dumbledore, and McGonagal. arrived at an old looking tavern. "this is diagon alley?" asked harry skeptically. "heavens no." said McGonagal. "this is just the entrance." as the three entered the building, everyone acknowledged them with a nod. many of them doing a double take at harry. "ah, albus my friend." said the bar keep. he was missing some teeth. "what can i get for you today?" albus held up a hand. "nothing this time, tom." said albus. "just taking a new hogwarts student to get his supplies."
tom looked towards harry. "my word." he said. "ive never seen something quite like you before." harry smirked. "i doubt you would. but if it helps, i use to be human." he said. "well, whatever happened to you, i hope it didnt cause too much trouble for you." tom said. "not at all." harry said. "if anything, it made me all the better." tom smiled and gestured to a room to the side. "whenever you come to diagon alley the entrance is right over there. im sure minerva and albus can show you how to get in." harry nodded. thank you, sir." said harry. he may not have been around humans all that often but still knew to be polite."
as the trio came into the room, dumbledore pulled out his wand. "watch carfully, harry." he said, and then tapped three bricks with his wand. the bricks began to move and part away. revealing diagon alley. harry looked up as they began walking through the ally. those buildings didnt look very stable but somehow were just fine. it unerved him slightly.
dumbledore reached into his pocket and pulled out a key. "our first stop is grinkgots the wizarding bank." he said as he handed harry the key. "this key is for the vault your parents left you." harry took the key and a part of his arm opened. he placed the key inside. dumbledore and McGonagal just blinked at him. "if only we could do that." Mcgonagal said while shaking her head.
before they entered the bank, harry stopped to read the sign. nearby two goblin guards that were giving him looks of confusion. "heh." harry chuckled. "havent even met these guys and i already like them." the two goblins gave slightly shocked looks as the three entered the building.
as the three came to a teller, many of the goblins were staring at harry. not seeing something like him before. "what do you want." asked the goblin that they approached. harry gave a respectful bow. feeling that these creatures wouldnt respond well to disrespect. "my name is harry potter. i wish to enter my vault." he said. many goblin's eyes widened at this. "you are harry potter?" asked the goblin. "i am." harry replied. "as you can see im not exactly human anymore." the goblin nodded. "very well. follow me." the goblin got up from his chair and began walking towards a set of golden doors. harry followed him to a strange mine cart like vehicle. luckily he didnt have motion sickness because that thing was fast.
they arrived at a large grey door. "key please." the goblin, griphook harry thought his name was, said. harry handed him the key and he unlocked harry's vault. "holy shit." harry said at the sight of all the gold. "i knew my parents were rich but damn. thats a lot of bloody money."
harry was given a shrinking bag to put some of the money in he took a sufficiant amount for himself and anything he might need. harry then turned to griphook. "thank you for this, griphook." he said and bowed. griphook fumbled the key in his hands at harry's formality. "you alright?" asked harry. "fine." said griphook. "wizards arent normally kind to us. they are quite full of themselves and dont use the proper customs when speaking to us." harry blinked at this. "i'd think that the guys trusting you to keep their gold save wouldnt be such a bunch of assholes." harry said. "right?" said griphook. "if i may, what are the customs for goblins?" asked harry. griphook smiled evily at harry. "id be happy to tell you." he said.
as harry and griphook arrived at the main entrance, harry once again bowed to griphook. "once again, thank you for your help griphook. and may your enemies shit themselves when they hear your name." he said.
several goblins' heads jerked towards him in surprise. one goblin choked on his drink due to the shock. a few looked like they were holding back smiles and laughter. griphook somehow kept his composure. "you are welcome mister potter. and may your foes quiver in fear of your arsenal." harry nodded and left the building. meeting back up with McGonagal and Dumbledore. the goblins just stared in shock at griphook. one goblin approached him. "might i ask what happened for you to gain respect from potter?" he asked. "i did absolutely nothing." said griphook. "he simply asked about our customs and formalities and i told him." griphook then smirked. "i believe we may have a trustworthy ally in the future."
The next stop on harry's list was a book store. he needed the neccesary textbooks and spellbooks. the owner of the shop stared at him for quite a bit. he found all the books he was looking for but stopped as something caught his eye.
"the adventures of harry potter?" he said with a baffled look. "what adventures? ive been living in the wild trying to survive for most of my life! what is this rubbish?" he said grabbing the book. "the closest thing to anything ive done is fight acromantulas. and they didnt even put up much of a fight! this doesnt even look like me." he was gesturing to the guy on the cover. he was just a slightly younger looking james potter. he was tempted to set the book of lies of fire. but chose not to.his next item was robes. did he really have to wear clothes? as he stepped inside the store the woman at the desk gaped at him. she shook it off and spoke. "welcome to madam malcans. i assume youre a first year?" harry nodded. "do you have any pictures of hogwarts first year's robes?" harry asked. she reached into a drawer and pulled out a small photograph. harry looked at it, then shifted into his basic form. he'd learned that this form could mimic clothing. his body took on the appearance of the robes. "well that's certainly conveniant." she said. "how much?" asked harry. "pardon? you didnt buy anything." she said. "technically i did." he replied. while i didnt have any robes made, i based this form off off your designs." madam malkins decided to accept the payment and harry headed to the next store. he didnt noticed a blonde haired boy giving him a look of confusion and slight intrigue.
next were potion supplies. he needed a p pewter cauldron. he walked past a man with greasy hair in all black. the man did a double take and stared in slight monotone confusion. figuring he'd use his abilities to his advantage he swapped to poison mode. this mode gave him more knowledge on chemicals and neccisary potions ingredients. the man approached him from behind. "yes?" asked harry. he'd long since noticed the man. "may i inquire as to what exactly you are?" the greasy man asked rather rudely. "i'd tell you if i actually knew." harry said. "i've been like this since i was a one year old." the man blinked at this.
"and you believe that?" asked the man. "considering after my transformation i had far more cognitive brain functions, yes" harry said. "being greeted by your parents dead bodies after becoming so self aware isnt exactly the best experience." the man's eyes widened a bit. "and where did you go from there?" asked the man. his tone was more curious then rude now. "just wherever. couldnt exactly show myself to humans. they'd freak out. for ten years of my life i survived until albus dumbledoor found me in the dark forest. now im here and aparently some kind of celebrity. some idiot wrote some book on me. most of the stuff in the damn thing is lies. i say mkst because the only thing relatively close is me fighting acromantulas.
the man seemed rather intrigued by his story. the begining sounded very familier. "and your name would be?" he asked. "sorry. forgot to introduce myself." harry said. "my name is harry potter." harry thought he saw a hint of disgust in the mans eyes for a brief moment. "let me guess. you and my father didnt get along all that well?" harry asked. "
the man raised an eyebrow. harry turned to him fully. "you looked pretty pissed for a second after i said my last name. considering ive never met you before and you look to be around my father's age if he were still alive, im guessing he wasnt the most tolerable." the man scoffed. "james potter was a bit more then that." the man sneered. "well then if it makes you feel sy better you dont have to address me as mister potter like everyone else. my mother's maiden name was evens so feel free to call me mister evans or just harry. either one works for me." harry left the store and the man with a sorrowful look on his face. it seems that the man knew his parents. and by the way he reacted to his mother's name. they might have been friends.the next stop was an animal companion. this might take a while considering he'd hunted animals for a a while and most could tell he was a predator at this point.
he walked into the store. like he expected, many of the animals noticed his presence but didnt freak out. most just gave him warry glances. he began searching for spacific animals. reptiles. mainly snakes or lizards. amphibians like toads and frogs didnt like him much and birds he felt were a no go since he hunted them a lot. he finally found what he was looking for. two cages. one with a monitor lizard and one with a python. he shifted to dragon mode to make the two reptiles more comfortable with his presence. naturally this got a few people's attention.
"hello." said harry. both the lizard and snake perked up at hearing his voice. "a speaker?" said the snake. "indeed." said the lizard. "we have not met many that speak dragon." harry raised a preverbial eyebrow. "dragon?" he asked. "speakers are those who speak the language of reptiles. a language created by the dragons." said the lizard. "sounds to me like im just speaking english." harry said. "it's supposed to." said the snake. "to non-speakers, it sounds like snake noises." harry looked over at the other people in the store. they were all staring at him in either fear or confusion. "oi! dont you know its rude to listen in on someone's conversation?!" harry said. several people turned and went about their own buisness. a few kept staring. harry shook his head and went back to his conversation.
"i am here looking for an animal companion for hogwarts. would either of you like to join me?" the snake and lizard looked at eachother for a moment. "both if possible." said the snake. "we've been here for quite a long time and no one exactly wants a snake ever since that dark wizard voliwhatsit showed up." harry got a bewildered look on his face. "was he that bad?" asked harry. "he started a war over blood purity and kill some kids parents. said kid disappeared shortly after." the lizard said. "so this voldi guy is the bastard that murdered my parents in front of me." said harry with a murderous scowl. "wait your that kid?" said the snake. "now you have to take us with you. we want just as much revenge on that guy for giving us a bad rep. all just because he was in slytherin house." said the lizard. "i mean, yeah the house is for the cunning and ambitious, but now everyone says its where all evil wizards go. seriously, one bloody human from there goes bad and everyone in slytherin is bad now? im sure there were bad wizards in the other houses too."
the snake and lizard were ranting now. harry could honestly sympathise with them. "alright ill take both of you." he said causimg the two to stop. "three of us." said the lizard as a figure started flying towards harry. "wha-" harry was cut off as a pair of taloned feet landed on his head. he reached up an allowed the animal to step onto his arm. revealing a small white scaled dragon. a comotion could be heard as someone approached harry. "how'd you get out here?" the man said to the dragon. "sorry sir, we've been keeping her in the back since she snaps at any customer she sees." the snake scoffed. "she's every right to be mad. this is no place for a dragon." he said. "hes right. why do you even have a dragon here?" asked harry. "we recieved her egg alongside a bunch of owl eggs. she acts fine around the other employees and animals but hates any other human that comes in here... aside from you that is... what are you anyway?" the man said. "no idea." said harry. "how much for all three?" harry asked.
harry left the store with a snake on his head, an lizard on his back, and a dragon perched on one of his back cannons. all of which were white. the perfect contrast to his dark colors in his base mode. dumbledore and McGonagal were shocked at the three animals with him. especially the white dragon. they didnt say anything though. they honestly shouldve expected something like this with harry's strange abilities. the three animals were named reshiram, rayquaza, and eternatus. he didnt know why bit those names felt right. (in order: the dragon is reshiram, the snake is rayquaza, and the lizard is eternatus) he would find later that his three companions weren't regular animals and like him. they were equally special.
so in case anyone is wondering. headwig is all three of the animals which is why they're all white. and as for why he named them after three legendary dragon pokemon? youll see
