As Harry walked to Gringotts with Astoria and Daphne his mind was still occupied with the note oh well Dudley had left. Astoria and her sister tried to keep Harry calm, but his magic was starting to swirl rubbish around them. It was a feat most adults could not accomplish, and it made Severus, Tom and the other adults following look at him in a mixture of fear and amazement. As the entourage approached the bank the goblin guards stood at attention knowing that the young wizard in front of them had immense power.

Upon entering the bank, a teller leads the group to the Potter account managers office. Account manager Bonehowl stood and bowed to Harry and his entourage before excusing the young goblin teller. The adults including Madam Bones who had decided to see Bonehowl regarding a letter she had received. "Madam Bones before you ask about my latest correspondence let me inform Lord Potter and his party of the latest developments." Bonehowl took a breath even for being three centuries old he still hated giving bad news. "Lord Potter upon our meeting this summer I looked into the old Potter family contracts I even went as far back as the early fifth century and I found an activated marriage contract to house cnámha." Bonehowl finished Myra who translated old books for extra money immediately gasped and looked at Amelia. Harry missed her reaction as he mental conferred with the girls on if this would put a burden on their relationship.

Finally, Myra couldn't hold it in any longer "whom of the House Bones is it Harry has to marry and by when? And I know that the contract must be unbreakable otherwise you wouldn't bring it up Honorable Bonehowl." She blurted out her question to which Bonehowl could only nod.

Bonehowl decided to explain the terms of the contract first "The terms of the contract are that the Lord of House Potter must marry the first unmarried Lady of house Bones. However, since Madam Bones married into the Bones clan and is only acting head of house until her niece turns seventeen. The contract was writing as a way to form peace between the two houses. The marriage is to be within a year of the contract becoming active as far as children the contract states within seven months of the marriage. Now keep in mind when this contract was writing arranged marriages were normal and the only reason it activated is due to Harry being announced as Lords Ravenclaw and Potter." Bonehowl finished with a sympathetic look to the young Lord.

Daphne asked, "Professor Riddle is possible for you and Professor Snape to get her classes adjusted with ours and move her to our apartment?" The Professors and Amelia conferred in a corner of the room before agreeing that Daphne's idea was a sound one and that Susan would be able to change houses. Harry asked Bonehowl to reveal his heritage test to all present which the account manager agreed.

"Lord Potters heritage goes all the way back to King Arthur who was Merlin's distant cousin he is actually Merlin's great times three thousand grandson," Bonehowl said which caused all the adults to stare with their jaws open wide in amazement.

"Well, that answers how come he is so powerful magically being a descendant of Ravenclaw, Slytherin, and Merlin," Severus said with a grinned to his adopted nephew. Harry looked at Severus and smiled before hugging him. Severus looked at his nephew and knew the question Harry desperately wanted the answer to, so he asked "Bonehowl what about the Evans line?"

Bonehowl looked through his files and looked at the young boy in front of him. "Please let me consult with a fellow account manager I will be back shortly." He said as he left through a door hidden in the wall. The adults in the room were in shock of Harry's ancestry before they could say anything Bonehowl returned with someone Professor Riddle recognized all too well the Account manager for his family the Slytherin account manager. Bonehowl cleared his throat which to the witches and wizards present sounded like nails on a chalk broad. "this is the account manager for the Slytherin family I conferred with him as to the Evans line he informed me that the Evans line dates back further than the Riddle line. The Evans line comes from the Squibb son of Salazar Slytherin so by all technical rights Mr. Potter is to be the head of Slytherin when he turns Seventeen." Bonehowl finished saying Professor Riddle nodded understanding that until Harry was Seventeen, he was the temporary head of the Slytherin family.

"Harry until you are seventeen, I will teach you how to run our family dealings and consult you on wise choices and carry out duties as you see fit. As of now, I am recognized as your ambassador." Tom said to Harry kneeling before him as he spoke. The adults in the room were in shock as the realized Tom and gave the young lord a wandless magical vow.

Bonehowl looked at Tom and Harry and knew that like everyone in the room he would die to protect Harry if it came to pass something, he hoped wouldn't happen for a long time to come. "I believe that concludes our business today. As everyone left Gringotts their mind weighed heavy with the revelations presented at the meeting. Daphne and Astoria wondered how Susan Bones would feel about the marriage contract.

Not long after his meeting with the assassin Percy Weasley went back to his dorm feeling as though he had accomplished something that many wizards his age would not try even though he knew his families allegiance to Harry had changed, however, Percy felt it was his duty to uphold his beliefs that his mother Molly Weasley had instilled upon him. Little did he know is little twin brothers Fred and George were aware of his plot to help the assassin. So they sought out their head of house Alice Longbottom. They explained to Professor Longbottom and informed her of their brother's nefarious plot.

As Harry and his entourage arrived back at Hogwarts they came in through the head Mistresses personal floo network connection. At once Severus and Tom got to work with the help of Madam Bones to find her niece Susan they found her just where Madam's Bones thought they would find her at Black Lake with many other first years Hufflepuff including her friend Justin Finch-Fletchley. Upon seeing her aunt Susan ran to her gave her big hug not caring how made her look in front of her classmates she immediately asked, "Auntie what are you doing here? Is everything okay?"

Madam Bones took a deep breath and prepared to give her niece what she felt was the worst news you can give an eleven-year-old girl. "Susie we need to talk in private." Was all that Amelia would say. Susan followed her aunt knowing if she wanted to speak in private it was important. As soon as they were in private Susan began her line of questioning begins to her aunt but Amelia cut her off "Susie do you remember that marriage contract I spoke to you about that our ancestors wrote that we both assumed was just a legend. I'm sorry to say but it is real and has been activated before I say who the contract is to I need your solemn vow that you will allow lash out against the boy." She said before letting Susan continue her niece nodded. "The boy is none other than Lord Ravenclaw-Slytherin-Potter" Amelia said as she watched her young niece breath a sigh of relief but also a look of worry be for she could ask why the look of worry Susan started explaining that she was worried she could not compete with Daphne and Astoria for Harry's attention. Amelia let out a light chuckle thinking to herself about when she was her nieces age before saying "It might surprise you to know it was Daphne's idea to have join their house and stay with them in their apartment between Daph and Stori as they like to be called poor Harry did not stand a chance. I do believe you will find that the girls will make time for you and Harry." Susan looked gobsmacked at hear it was Daphne and Astoria who took her in with open arms before giving their husband a chance to object.

Susan took a moment to collect her thoughts "I will do it on the condition that I don't have to give up the friends I have made already." She said with a tone of authority which her aunt knew meant she was not taking no for an answer.

Madam Bones smiled before nodding her understanding what that statement meant "I believe you will find they will be more than happy to make friends with the friends you made. " she said before leading her niece to Professors Riddle and Snape who stood a respectable distance away.

Tom looked at Severus "I do believe that we can expect great things from these four. I have never met a more tanleted group besides you James and Lily" he said with a smile as the ladies walked up. "Miss Bones as your Aunt has told you we are switching you to Slytherin house and that this request comes from my Lords wife Mrs. Daphne Potter-Ravenclaw and was agreed upon by Mrs. Astoria Potter before my poor great nephew had a chance to speak. And the fact he is Lord Slytherin is not public knowledge yet so please use discretion with that information. If you all will please follow me to Headmistress McGonagalls office." He finished as he lead the trio to the gargoyle guarding the office.
