Chapter Text

Harry felt like the calm before a storm. He had gotten all the Horcruxes but two. The only two left were himself and that damn snake. He hoped this would work. He had figured out that He was staying at Malfoy manor and had to move fast.

He had figured out, with the help of Gringotts, that when Voldemort attacked that faith-full night, a part of Voldy's soul had reached him and was now implanted in the ugly lightning scar on his forehead.

He had a plan figured out. if the plan works great, if not. well, he could always kill him.

he had apparently always been able to not attend this war, but some stupid people had the need to interfere and now he had to fix everything.

it all started with Gringotts,

*flashback*

Harry was lying down on the dirty floor of his room. He had pain all over his body and his vision was groggy. his body was stiff from his recent beating from Vernon because he accidentally burned the sauce for dinner. It wasn't like he could re-do it, but NO he had to get beaten almost to death.

He looked to the clock

Pure pain surged throughout his whole body, but not enough to scream. I'd say that it would only get worse. After the pain was sustained he carefully sat up.

He heard a ticking noise from the window. With great difficulty, he stood up and walked to the window. Outside was an owl with a letter on it.

Harry let it in and saw the familiar great on it. Gringos.

"What would they want..?"

dear Mr. Harry Orion James Potter.

We would like to congratulate you on your creature inheritance. We would like to inform you that you are a very rare speech and we will be asking for your assistance here in the bank for information and details.

We would also like to inform you in pressing matters that unconditional and illegal withdrawals have been taken from your vaults and usage of your properties has been discovered. We hope to inform you of more details in place. Hoppe your gold will overflow and your weapons stay sharp. Griphook, manager of potter vaults and properties.

Ps. This letter is a port key. Just Tell the word "griffin" and you will be teleported to the gates of Gringotts bank. Ask for a Griphook and say it is about you.

After reading it Harry took a bag with clothes he had secretly bought and brought an outfit that he could wear. Before he started to dress in clothes that were better than the rags Dursleys gave him, his injuries made themselves known again.

" OK.first rap them up then Gringotts..."

After Harry was done he took the letter am uttered the word "griffin".

He felt the pull under his navel and everything started spinning.

After landing rather clumsily in an office he looked up to see the face of an irritated goblin.

"Greetings. Mr potter-black I assume?" the goblin, that he assumed was, Griphook greeted,' Black I'm not a black... I'm I?'

"I'm just a potter as far as I know...?"

"That is not what I have in my documents," Griphook gruffly answers.

"Well my godfather is Sirius black but I'm not bloody related to him," he asked him a little more confused now

"Mr. Potter-black, don't you know that after someone becomes the official godparent, and after the child's 5th week, they blood adopts the child. It's more common around purebloods ranks. It's insurance that even if the mainline dies out, the line will be kept. So in other words, as it says here, after 6 weeks off your birth you had 4 godparents while 1 of them was the official one. And that one was lord black," Griphook finished his explanation.

"I understand," Harry said, he understood but was confused. He remembers a talk he had in his third year with Seamus. He had said that his mom's, after not getting pregnant the "normal" way, had gotten a donor and the other mom had blood adopted him after he was born. He had told him that after the blood adoption most of his donor's features dispersed and he looked like both his moms.

(Not Canon but vibe with it)

" If that is out of the way I would like to get to the point of why you're here. As you finally showed up with our letter we will have to discuss all the matters that you missed since you have no legal responsibility for them. Do you understand?" Griphook said.

"Yes. All but one thing. What did you mean by 'finally?' As far as I know this is the first letter I have gotten from Gringotts," Harry answered. He had started to feel more and more confused, but also worried. It was that gut feeling he got when he got bad news. And that didn't sound more positive than negative.

" We have been trying to reach you since your 4th year. All the letters we tried to send you we didn't get a response to or it simply was sent back unopened. Were you not aware that with your participation in the tournament you became legally off age and would be needed to come into the bank to accept your heir rings, And now when you're seventeen, and as there is no potter lord you will be the new Lord Potter if the rings accept you. The headmaster or other authority would be obliged to inform you of this!" In the end, Griphook got a more upset and concerned look in his eyes.

" I wonder. Mr potter-black. As this is more than what we called you in for, I think it would be proper to propose that you do an inheritance test. In it, you will see your blood bonds as a blood-related family, information on your health, and more specifically if you're under any compulsions or potions that are both from your past and in working. Do you consent to this?"

The goblin looked at Harry with a look that said more than it should have. It had a concern, worry, and even some anger in it. Harry thought about it and came up with the conclusion that it would only be for his benefit.

"Yes. I will do it. Will there be any cost? And if there is something that I don't want in or on me, will you be able to get rid of it?"

"Yes, we have curse breakers, healers, and ritual masters to help our clients. We take this at most important so we look to take the utmost precision for our clients well being" after the goblin spoke Harry decided he would do it.

Harry's pov

After some more explaining of the different rituals and more of the written consent if needed he was ready to take the test.

"Now Mr potter-black you'll need to drop 7 drops of blood on the test to achieve test results."

After Harry cut his non-dominant hand palm and let them drop on the parchment till it had counted to 7 drops. As soon as the last drop reached the paper his wound healed. the goblin took the paper to overlook it, his eyes widened at the content on the paper.

"I think those cleansings are needed more than I thought. Mr potter- black. you need immediate cleansing, to this level of blocks and compulsions it's a wonder you are alive..."

Griphook immediately jumped down from his chair and choed Harry into a big ritual room. Harry was confused with what was going on but he trusted the goblin and did as he was instructed.

Another goblin that introduced herself as scrap-claw instructed that Harry would switch clothes to a white gown and then lay down on a stone altar in the middle of the room.

"Ok little one, you will have to drink two potions, one for sleep and one for pain. Both don't taste too good but you'll need to drink both. you will be asleep till I will give you the cure for the sleeping potion. you'll need to take the pain potion because the blocks, bindings, potions, and compulsions have been part of you for a very long time. we will have to take them all at once and it will hurt, but the positions will reduce the pain, not take it away but it will be less. Do you consent to both these options or do you wish for other alternatives?"

"No. It sounds good. one question though. When I take the sleep potion will I get nightmares?" One of the many reasons why he always had bags under his eyes was nightmares, always there, waiting for him to drift off to attack.

"necessarily not. normally you wouldn't, but if you have a similar heritage to a seer you probably would, but let's not focus on that. and if the information is right you are not a sear." as scrap-claw pushed the first position in his hand. it was some kind of dark-gray ich color and smelled of old socks. Harry downed it and discovered that it also tasted like old socks.

"Now for the sleeping potion, you will have to lay down for this one."

She gives him the last potion and Harry downed it like the others. Before Harry could try to figure out what it tasted like black dots started to show up. Soon everything went black.

When Harry opened his eyes again he was feely drowsy. After a couple of minutes of copulating the events before the blackout or the sleeping potion he pushed himself off the soft surface he was laying down on. He was laying on the couch in the office that he presumed was grip-hook. 

"glad you are awake heir potter-black. now if you are clear enough, we could proceed to discuss the implication of the test" said goblin said from behind the big desk. By the look of it, he had been working with more paperwork and he had more wrinkles on his face than he had before.

"yes, I'm ok now and I would like to see the content of the test before we start to discuss it so I don't miss anything that I way have any questions on," he surprised himself with his conclusion. He had only thought of the necessary before, but now he wanted to know more about the details and side branches of the test.

"very well. here" with the confirmation from the wizard grip-hook retched for the test and gave it to Harry

~¤~

All colour left Hadrian's face. he knew his injuries were bad but never had he realised that it was this bad. Also, the betrayal he felt toward dumbles, Hermonie and Mrs Wasley. He taught that defiantly had a family, a mother and two sisters. 'who else couldn't he trust? were Ronald still his friend? did he know what the others did? what will happen to him now? '

" heir Potter-Black. With your birthday coming up in two weeks, you will have to face the responsibility of your titles as lord over multiple houses and will also take your seats in the government. Like this you will need someone to teach you and as you have an emergency contact that is a lord he could give you the needed information. I shouldn't say it but from a personal and professional view, lord Lestrange is one of the most powerful lords. Even after the dark lords dark days and as his right hand, he still was independent and wasn't even charged as many other known lords that were by the dark lord's side. I would recommend that you would make contact with him instead of lord Slytherin for your better. with the contract being done before, and it being Dorea Potter nee black doing it, I most defiantly think that most cons lay in your house" grip hook had taken a liking to the young wizard that had such a tuff life. Goblin's heald certain respect or disrespect towards wizards' for their ignorance but this wizard had to go through most of life's hardships just at the beginning of his days. he deserved a lot and grip hooks respect was one off them. now he would make everything in his power that Hadrian would get the best advice and that he would be able to get his revenge. "also your creature will be fully developed by then too, as we wrote it is a particularly rare creature. only a few families have it and most of those families live in japan. you will develop ears and tails. how many tails I can't stay, it's based on the power level of the wizard, the more tails, the more power the kitsune has. you can command the trait away but it will be part of your natural form, so I someone put a blocking glamour spell on you, they will show."

Griphook opened a drawer from his desk and pulled out seven small boxes. "this is your heir rigs for now. after your sixteenth birthday, you will have to come back to claim the ord rings. you will put on one by one, if the ring accepts you, you will be the official heir of that house and no one outside the family will be able to question it. for your information, if they do it's a sign of big disrespect if they question your blood. Only if they pronouncedly tells it's by curiosity it's a logical question."

One by one Hadrian put on the rings. all having their crest and family motto carved in it. when he was done he had a lingering feeling of being complete. the magic that had ruched thru him with every ring blended with his own and it was almost as it made its little sign and feeling content.

"apart from that, Mr Dumbledore, miss Ginevra Weasley Mrs Weasley and Miss Granger have taken large amounts of profit and money from your accounts. if your want the bank could take it all back, with interest. all you would have t do is say it and pay a small charge. I will personally see to it"

Hadrian was trying to melt all the information he had gotten.

"I think I want to take you on that advice and suggestions. But please don't punish the whole family, if it's like the papers say, it was only the females of the Weasley family that has done the wrongdoings. could you send a notice to Mr Weasley off the information that his wife and daughter have inflicted on me and make it clear that if he sides with her, he will also have to compensate? also is there any way to contact lord Lestrange and get a copy of the contract he made with my grandmother?" 

"we can contact lord Lestrange from here at the bank and I can get those papers in one-half hour. would you like to call on the lord before or after reading the contract?"

"yeas place."

"alright. I have some papers that need looking over regarding your seats and lord duties, also on some laws that were both rejected and accepted in your absents. I will soon be back"

"yes thank you." with that Griphook gave the papers and left the room. Hadrian got to reading and was horrified at what his implied proxy had done in his names. there were so many restrictions on creatures that it was like they had no rights. also all the "dark" and eve grey spells had been forbidden with punishment on Azkaban level. manny of them was even not for hurting or anything evil, just rituals for traditions and manny other helping spells that can be used for good. bu all of them were restricted because they were considered dark. HOW COULD A SPELL THAT HELPED YU CONNECT WITH YOUR ANCESTORS MAGIC BE BAD!? and also he had gotten papers that were connected to his Hogwarts lordships, and the list of cancelled classes was disturbingly long. manny he realized would hade help muggle-borns or even half-bloods that wasn't raised as purebloods, manny like etiquette, potion guides, extra studies groups or extra classes for different classes, dark arts, Legilimency and Occlumens, politics, wizard traditions and rituals and even, some more muggle looking, classes like art, music, language and even math. 

---------------------------break---------------------------------------

 after a little bit, more than one half hour Griphook came into the room to a wizard with a look of horrified with a blend of disgust on his face.

"Mr Griphook, this is a very disturbing long list of cancelled classes that would even help everyone, not just muggle-borns but purebloods as well. what was the timeline of the removal of all these classes? it cant be under one headmaster? right!?" Hadrian's stomach dropped at the look in the goblins face, ' was all these perfectly functional off not necessary, helping and educating classes dropped by one wizard's school reign?!'

"sadly Heir potter-black, the majority of those classes if not all was dropped during dumbledore's headmaster time. but for your information, off when you become lord of no one but two houses in Hogwarts you have a higher position than the headmaster and he would be required to go to you for approval, but you will have majority control over the schools business.. one off those being required classes and appropriate staff for those" Griphook answered, "if you would like to look into it I would suggest talking to the Goblin that is responsible for the Hogwarts and its houses business. For now, you could take a look at the contract that lade potter nee black made for future heirs" with that he gave the documents that he had over to Hadrian to look over.

most of the things written were to the benefiting to the black heir. but at some point, it had to be something benefitting o the Lestrange. and that was a betrothal between a Black and one off the Lestrange and for the couple to bring forth an heir for the Lestrange hose. by the extra notes that Griphook provided it stood that a betrothal and a marriage were already installed but no heir. 

" is here more Blacks part from me? why aren't they before to the lordship, or why isn't it an heir if they already are married?" Hadrian was worried that if there was not a complete contract he would be responsible for either producing an heir to marry off to the family as an arrange marriage or fulfilling that part himself.

"well, you have three relatives that are close enough for being called blacks. andromeda tonks nee black, Narcissa Malfoy nee black and of course Bellatrix Lestrange nee black. as you heard Bellatrix is the one that was supposed to fill the contract of the blacks side, but it's yet to bring an heir to the house. as it looks now it probably won't be any, but as you have a creature with mates you don't have to worry too much. after all eldest families wizards respect the mate bonds, it is more of the newer families or muggle-borns that takes it as being forced to another. in your case, if not one of your mates is from the Lestrange family, one of your offspring or one that is close to the bloodline could take on that responsibility. a few would be Draco Malfoy, as his mother is a black but also Nymphadora tonks, even if her mother was disowned Nymfodora still has the black blood and wasn't taken away from the family tree. but their offspring would have access to the name for their legal name will never be of their mothers, so they are the only options, if not you and your children"

Hadrian thought about it. He didn't want to put this contract on anyone else.

"ok. I would like to contact lord Lestrange to both talks about the contract and if he could be my magical guardian for those weeks that remain before my 16th birthday. I could always learn from a lord instead of a book. in my opinion, that is more favourable" Hadrian decided. He needed more information on the other family and if by coincidence one of the Lestrange's was his soulmate it would be a bonus.

Griphoock noded and made a call on an old days phone on the desk,' how did the phone work? It's an old phone so it may work for it's not based on wireless internet and data? how were goblins more progressive than a wizard in using more off muggle technique when all wizards said about them was how barbaric they were, not that the history in Hogwarts helped with only highlighting the goblin wars instead of wizarding history. that way will be one of his changes in Hogwarts teaching system. switching the boring ghost professor that only talked of one thing, to a new professor with great knowledge, also maybe get more professors for the different classes. right now for example professor, McGonagall has three important positions, she would probably be less stressed and be more focused if she only had two or most preferably one. same with the other head of houses. I would be even more preferably if any heir would be available but you could only hope' hardens was deep in his thoughts, so he didn't notice that Griphook talked to someone on the phone in gobledock, he also didn't notice when another goblin came into the room informing off lord Lestrange arrival.

"heir Potter-Black!" that brought him out of his head. as he looked up from the papers and from his thoughts he saw a man in front of him. he was tall and had long black hair with grey streaks in it, he wore proper expensive robes hand as they called it, a 'perfect pureblood mask' on his face. He looked down on Hadrian from his standing position.

"This is lord Corvus Lestrange, my lord this is heir Potter-black. he called you here regarding the contract that you hand his grandmother Dorea Potter nee black made for the safety for both houses heirs", Griphook looked at both wizards. both looking each other up and down, seemingly looking for either weaknesses or other important information that could lay on the surface.

"lord Lestrange, it's a pleasure to meet you. as Mr Griphook stated I would like to discuss the contract as I'm both heir and seak a more compatible guardian for the weeks that remains for me to be a legal lord and be responsible for my houses. my full name is Hadrian Orion James Potter-black." Hadrian didn't get a propper to educate teaching, but from all the purebloods students in Hogwarts, he had learned to introduce himself as one.

Lord, Lestrange looked surprised at him, but soon got his mask on again.

"The pleasure is all mine heir potter-black. I was surprised that there were any black heirs left after Mr black was put in Azkaban and lost his right to it and as it was looking would produce any heirs. tell me, how is your blood so close to it that you can claim the lordships before heir Malfoy? I say this not as an insult but as both an insurance that the contract as you say will be field properly and by more personal curiosity." the older man responded.

"well as my godfather, as you said, he was Black and without an heir, he was the one-off my good parents that blood-adopted me. ad as both my grandmother was a Black and I was adopted it allowed the heir and lordship go to me rather than the Malfoy heir or mss tonks, whose blood is still in the family tree" with the explanation Hadrian showed Lestrange his black heir ring.

 the lord seemed pleased with the evidence and explanation. "let's get down to business then, shall we?"
