Mina was making final preparations to return to Japan with Harry. She mentally reviewed her plans, which involved buying things for the new room for Harry in her apartment, which she had managed, with the help of her parents, who were happy do something for their new grandson, whom they hoped to meet in person at last.

Harry was sleeping peacefully at that time, in one of the rooms of the apartment that she had rented during their stay in London. It would be the next day, when they would travel back.

"At last!" Mina said, stretching her muscles. "Already finished organizing everything! We leave early tomorrow, Artemis" Mina told Artemis.

"You're all set now? Your passport and Harry?" Asked Artemis, ensuring that Mina would not forget anything.

"Yep, just need to notify the pilot of the plane of the departure time," said Mina, because thanks to Azusa, the production house of Mina, had given her a private jet, so she could travel back with Harry smoothly. She looked at her child and smiled lovingly as she knelt down and kissed his cheek. "Tomorrow, we're going to your new home, baby..." She whispered in his ear.

She turned to leave Harry's room, quietly closing the door behind her, smiling lovingly at the sleeping child before the door closed. She let out a happy sigh...then heard a knock on the door.

"Huh? Who could thatt be?" Mina said as she left the room, making sure that Harry would not wake.

"You expected visitors, Mina?" asked Artemis.

"No, I never asked anyone to come over, nor did I expect company." She replied.

"Hmm...Well, best see who it is, then."

Mina went to see who it was, and when she opened the door, she was surprised to see the strangest people she had ever seen.

The first was an old man with long white hair and beard, in an old suit of dark green color.

The second person was a woman of strict appearance and a dress that had been fashionable in Victorian times.

And the last... person...?... was what looked like a dwarf with sharp and unfriendly features.

Indeed it was a strange group.

"Yes?" asked Mina with caution

The old man smiled sadly and cleared his throat. "So you're the saviour of Harry Potter..." He said softly.

"You know Harry?" asked Mina, between intrigued and cautiously.

"We actually met his parents," replied the woman, "we are teachers of their old school. Would you allow us to enter? We would like to talk to you about some things related to little Harry."

Mina was surprised to meet people who knew Harry's parents, and thinking she could maybe find answers, let them pass.

"Okay, come in please." She said, leading them to the living room of the apartment. "And who are you?" asked Mina.

"I am Albus Dumbledore." Dumbledore replied. His eyes glistened. "And it is with great sorrow that I must inform you that it was my mistake to put Harry with the Dursleys..."

'It was his fault!' Mina was furious, and was about to do something drastic, when she saw Artemis behind them, shaking his head, reminding her that she needed answers and apparently these people would give her those.

Mina sighed, regaining her calm, and asked them "And after you made such a decision, do you know what these MONSTERS did to my poor child?"

This time the woman spoke, "My name is Minerva McGonagall. And now we know," she said, glaring at Dumbledore. "But on how things happened, it was due to special circumstances related to the death of Harry's parents and the legacy of Harry" McGonagall said.

"First, let me ask you a question Miss Aino. Do you believe in magic?" Dumbledore asked.

Mina blinked and tilted her head. "Oh! Well...Yes, I do believe in magic. ...But...Why do you ask?"

"It has everything to do with the topic, for little Harry is a wizard." said McGonagall. She continued. "Harry is part of a community of people who we are able to use magic, which, for obvious reasons, is hidden from Muggles, so they do not try abusing our abilities. "

"What's a muggle? And who would try to abuse you? I imagine that you are also wizards" said Mina, surprised.

"You're right, Miss Aino, and a Muggle is a normal person who does not have own magic, and upon abuse, if they knew of our existence, would try to use us to solve all their problems with magic." replied Dumbledore.

"But...We could exchange our access to technology for your magic..." Mina replied. "Wouldn't our worlds benefit from one another?"

Smiling sadly (and rejoicing that apparently Harry was with a good person) McGonagall replied, "If only there were more people like you, Miss Aino, but unfortunately, people fear what they do not know or understand, just remember those witch hunts in the past. "

"Oh .." Mina nodded. She asked something that was bothering her regarding what they said. "OK, and what happened to Harry's parents, how did they die?"

The goblin cleared his throat. "That is quite a tale...Greetings, my dear. My name is Griphook. Allow me to explain the story of young Harry, and how he attained his scar..."

And so...

Mina was horrified about what happened to poor Harry. At least Harry's parents loved him and sacrificed themselves for him, but there was something Mina wanted to know.

"But why did that monster attack? What did he have against them? Against Harry?" Asked Mina.

Dumbledore sighed. He had thought to secrecy about the prophecy and his suspected reasons regarding Voldemort and his Horcruxes, but he was reminded about the mistakes he had made before, what happened to Ariana, what poor Harry suffered because of him; and decided to tell the truth to Mina (and McGonagall, who would know at the time), for the sake of Harry.

"He thought he had a reason, Miss Aino" Dumbledore said, surprising Mina and McGonagall, as Griphook was silent, and proceeded to explain the prophecy and how that tied the fate of Harry and Voldemort.

"And for having survived Voldemort and defeated him apparently, Harry is famous in our world, and is known as" The Boy Who Lived "," said Dumbledore, "and for that reason, to protect him, was that I decided to leave him with his relatives. That, in the end, was a terrible mistake." He said.

"Of course it was a mistake! I warned you and you would not listen Albus!" Said McGonagall angrily. Mina concluded that it was she who had left the spectacular bruise on the side of Dumbledore's face.

Dumbledore sighed and nodded. "I know, Minerva...I know...You keep bringing it up..."

"And I was right, and you know it!" Said McGonagall, still upset. "At least Harry no longer has to worry about Voldemort..." Mina hoped McGonagall was right. Her poor son had suffered enough.

"On that, I fear that little Harry still be in danger, because Voldemort is not dead yet," said Dumbledore visibly tired.

"What?, How is it possible!?" McGonagall and Mina said at the same time while Griphook only raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"I think its because .." and Dumbledore told them about his suspicion of the Horcruxes, and that Harry was possibly one too.

Mina was absolutely horrified and trembling. How was it possible that in addition to suffering at the hands of these monsters, Harry had THAT within him?

"And there is nothing you can do to get that out of Harry? Something you can do with your magic?" Asked Mina,To which, for the second time, Griphook intervened.

"Well, the goblins may have a way..." Dumbledore snapped his head over to the goblin.

"Why were we not informed of this before?" He asked calmly.

"Because you never asked," Griphook replied calmly and continued. "Miss, I work in the Magic Bank Gringotts, and we goblins often have found valuables items converted into these monstrosities, and given that, destroying the objects is not an option, because it would mean a loss for us." Mina sighed with relief, "We have ways to transfer the piece of the soul to a worthless object to destroy it, but the problem with young Harry, is that the method has never been tested in a living being "Griphook said.

"But could you still try?" Mina asked.

"It could be possible if we had help from someone with spiritual powers, such as the legendary Mikos that exist in your country," said Griphook

And then Mina spoke excitedly, as she already knew who to ask for help ,"It's perfect !, I know a Miko and she can help us!" Mina said relieved that was a way to release Harry of that thing inside him.

"Wonderful." Griphook said. "Harry will be free of his horcrux once and for all."

"But what would be the cost of your help?" asked Mina, deducing that the aid would not be free. " Do you accept muggle money, if that's the word?" Mina, who thought she would spare no expense to help her son, said.

"As a matter of fact, Miss Aino, that's part of the reason why the good Griphook accompanied us, because Harry's parents, despite appearances, left him an inheritance and a fund for studies to cover expenses in Hogwarts, and Griphook is responsible for the account of young Harry, "Dumbledore said.

"Ok" Mina said, nodding, "...Wait, what is Hogwarts?" Mina asked curiously.

"It's the school that we hope Harry will be going to to learn how to use his magic." Dumbledore looked at Mina hopefully.

"The School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Hogwarts, is where we are part of the staff, and is where the children of England will receive their magical education, as in the case of Harry, since his birth was in England, he already he has a place in the school, "said McGonagall and proceeded to explain to Mina the curriculum of the school.

Artemis, meanwhile, was mentally going over everything they had learned at that meeting, planning to talk about it with the others upon their return to Japan.

"Then Miss Aino, you will allow Harry to attend Hogwarts?" asked Dumbledore.

Mina looked down. "Hmm...I don't know...Making the trip to England every year when I have tours to be on would be a lot of trouble..."

"Please Miss Aino, let Harry attend. While placing Harry with his uncle and aunt was a mistake, for which I will always regret, I would like to at least be able to give Harry the magical education he deserves, to honor his parents." Dumbledore said, trying to convince her. "Plus, while you, if I remember correctly, will be busy on tour, Harry could be studying, learning from his legacy. And for transportation, if you are busy, we have ways of travel that would allow you to come to see Harry off when he goes to Hogwarts, and return to Japan the same day."

Mina sighed. "All right...But if he comes back to me with any complaints, any at all, he won't be going back. Do I make myself clear?"

"Of course, and thank you Miss Aino, we promise that Harry will be in good hands." said McGonagall. "And I will personally make sure nobody bothers your child during his stay." She said with a look which made Dumbledore feel bad for Severus, knowing that if the potions master tried something, he would end up bewitched by Minerva, so he decided to talk to Severus later, for his own good.

"Then within six years, Harry will receive a letter, to tell him of his admission to Hogwarts, along with a list of what he will need." Dumbledore said, "If you like, any of us could accompany them, to advise, to buy what Harry needs."to which Mina nodded.

"Okay...But I'm gonna be there too." She said. "I wanna know what my baby's getting into."

"We wouldn't want it any other way, Miss Aino." Dumbledore said, relieved. "And thanks again for saving Harry. Professor McGonagall and I will go, as Griphook tells you about the inheritance of Harry."

"Thanks for letting us talk to you, Miss Aino." said McGonagall, showing a brief moment of shyness, which was clearly rare, Mina thought, seeing the surprised Dumbledore. "And by chance, do you have a picture of Harry with you?",.

"Sure, McGonagal sensei," Mina smiled and pulled out her cell (to the surprise of the wizards), and showed McGonagall a picture of her hugging Harry, while he was smiling happily,

McGonagall teared up. "You're taking such wonderful care of Mr. Potter...Thank you...From the bottom of my heart." McGonagall wiped the tears. "And something you will hear a lot is that he looks like his father and has his mother's eyes," which surprised Mina, happy to learn something about the parents of her son.

"Thank you Miss Aino, for making him happy. I hope you can forgive this old man, who committed the error." Dumbledore said as he also saw the photo.

Mina nodded and then McGonagall and Dumbledore left, leaving her and Artemis in the company of Griphook.

"OK, so what is there to know about Harry's inheritance?" Mina asked.

"Miss Aino, or should I say Princess Venus?" Griphook said, surprising Mina and Artemis.

"H-Huh..." Mina said softly. "Wh-What are you talking about...? I'm not-"

"I know who you are, my dear." Griphook replied.

"How did you know?" Asked Mina, almost fainting, as it was extremely rare that someone would discover her identity as Sailor Venus, and Venus reincarnated princess.

"Because my race, my dear, have skills that wizards do not. Very old skills, at that, from my ancestors dating from about the war between the Moon and Earth, ask your advisor feline, he can confirm." Griphook said, surprising Artemis.

"I suppose the jig is up, Mina..." Artemis said calmly.

"Oh. Do not worry, I do not want to cause any problems, because for me, it was also a surprise to see that the person in charge of caring for Harry Potter, was nothing less than a princess from extinct Silver Millennium." Griphook said, much to the relief of Mina and Artemis. "And we will help the princesses and Prince Endymion should they come to require it."

"Thank you, honorable Goldsmith" said Artemis. Minna nodded.

"But what about the Harry's heritage? What is there to know? Is there a problem?"

"Nothing to worry about, just that we thought appropriate that you were aware, if you needed help in expenditures to raise the young Mr Potter, but apparently that is not the case," and so Griphook explained to Mina and Artemis the inheritance of Harry, as well as how money in the wizarding world was handled, and the exchange rate between the magical world and the normal world.

"Thank you, Mr Griphook," Mina said. "So how we can contact you when we need your help to eliminate that thing inside Harry?"

Griphook raised a hand under his chin thoughtfully, then snapped his fingers. "I have an idea...Perhaps I could take aside some of my money, and purchase an owl for you two."

"An Owl?" Asked Mina.

"Yes, Miss Aino, that's the way in which wizards communicate. When you are ready, send us a message and we will have everything ready; the owl will deliver them tomorrow," said Griphook.

"Thank you," replied Mina gratefully.

"You are most welcome. Be sure to take good care of Mr. Potter." Griphook replied calmly.

"Of course," Mina said, smiling, "He is now my son after all." Griphook nodded and disappeared.

"We knew little Harry was special, but we really did not have much idea. At least I know why Harry healed so quickly." Artemis said, as he walked back to Mina after Griphook left.

"Yeah...A wizard...Who would have thought..." Mina replied. "Well, if there's one thing we can say for sure, it's that he's definitely safe from any of that Voldemort guy's followers. We've taken on cosmic threats, a few magical men can't be that hard, right?"

"Maybe, but we'd better be careful, because you heard what happened to his parents.' said Artemis. Mina nodded,"Well you have the support and help of all your friends to care for him..."

Mina went into Harry's room to check on her sleeping child. She smiled lovingly at the snoozing little child. "My little boy..." said Mina upon entering the room, approaching his bed and stroking his hair while Harry slept. "You have suffered so much... But not anymore, because I'm here to make sure you're happy." She leaned down to kiss him on the forehead, right on the scar.

Mina leaned her head on the bed, still watching Harry rest quietly. "In fact, mommy's going to be very busy these days, but it's worth it to see you happy." thought Mina, falling asleep next to her son. Artemis smiled at the sight as he stepped in. He hopped into the bed and curled on top of Harry.
