Chapter Seven: Malfoy Manor then back to Gringotts

After spending a couple hours in the pool, the four teens ate lunch on the back porch before sun tanning for the rest of the time.

"Guys," Violet said getting their attention, "It's time."

It was almost 1 pm in San Francisco making it close to 9 pm in London.

"Get dressed and meet back out front in five," Harry said and the other three nodded.

Like said, the four teens met outside the house to travel back to the United Kingdom.

"So how do we do his?" Hermione asked.

"Let me see," Harry said looking at the page, "We can either go to another one of my properties or go back to where we came in Diagon Alley."

"But how will we get to the manor from there?" Violet asked.

"I would call a house elf but then my father would be informed of our presence," Draco said.

"House elf," Harry whispered to himself, "Would any other house elf be detected in the wards?"

"Not that I know of," Draco said.

"Dobby!" Harry yelled and the little elf appeared with a slight pop.

"Harry Potter Sir, what can Dobby do for you?" Dobby asked.

"Can you get us four in and out of Malfoy manor safely, we need to retrieve Draco's mom," Harry said.

"Missy Cissy?" The little elf asked and Harry nodded, "Wouldn't it be safer if Dobby just popped in himself to get Missy Cissy?"

"No you can't go alone," Draco said, "If my father sees you he'll kill you."

"Oh young Master Draco, Dobby thinks it is so kind of you to worry but I's be fine," Dobby said.

"We need to go with you Dobby no questions," Hermione said, "We can't let you get hurt."

"But what if one of yous gets hurt?" Dobby asked.

"We'll be fine as long as we're together," Draco said, "If needed I could distract my father."

"I'm not leaving you alone with him," Violet said.

"Okay," Harry said gaining their attention, "We should have discussed this earlier because it's five after nine now."

"Oh, we got to go," Draco said as they all held a part of Dobby so they could pop into Malfoy manor.

Two seconds later the fourteens and one house elf were in an empty room of Draco's family home.

"Follow me," Draco said holding his hand out to Violet who took it with a smile.

Draco led them out into the hallway and towards where he knew his mother would be.

"Where is that son of yours Lucius?" They heard a snake like voice that could only belong to one snake like person, hiss, "Any process with him?"

"Shh," Draco hushed them as the two men they were trying to avoid were in the room in front of them; the room they had to get through to get Narcissa Malfoy. The group inched forward to watch the scene unfold.

"Yes My Lord, he is around here somewhere My Lord," Lucius answered with a nervous laugh.

"And what bout that girl he is always hanging around with," Voldemort said.

"Violet McAdams?" Lucius asked with a raise of his blond eyebrow.

"Yes, that's her name, any process with her?" Voldemort asked.

"Not yet My Lord," Lucius said bowing slightly before continuing, "but Draco and the girl grow closer each day, I believe they may have started dating."

"How would he know that?" Violet asked.

Draco hushed her.

"Who's there?" Lucius asked.

"Crap," Draco said to himself before whispering to the others, "Go get my mother."

"I'm not leaving you," Violet said.

"Take her go," Draco said gently pushing Violet to the others.

Dobby popped away taking Harry, Hermione and Violet with him.

"It's just me father," Draco said stepping out of the hallway with his head bowed, "I am sorry to interrupt, I believed your meeting was already over."

"You stupid boy," Lucius hissed stepping towards his son.

"Lucius enough, young Draco step forward," Voldemort said.

Draco shakily stepped forward raising his head slightly to look at the dark lord. He had his hands behind his back and one hand on his wand in case he needed it.

"Are you interested in joining me Draco?" Voldemort asked.

Draco not knowing what to say just gave to self proclaimed lord a small nod.

"That's a good boy, and what about Violet is she pure of blood?" Voldemort asked.

"I'm not sure My Lord, she was born to wizards as she was left outside a shop in Diagon Alley, but pureblood I am not sure," Draco said, "But she does have the power and knowledge of a pureblood My Lord."

Voldemort nodded and said, "Would she join you at my side?"

"She would," Draco said.

"Bring her here tomorrow at this time and you will join my ranks," Voldemort said.

"But My Lord he is only fifteen." Lucius said.

"Quiet!"Voldemort yelled, "I did not ask you to speak, crucio!"

Lucius withered to the ground in pain.

Voldemort turned to Draco, "I will see you and the girl tomorrow; you are dismissed."

Draco nodded as he took short, fast strides towards his mother's personal chambers.

Once he opened the door Draco was ambushed by a very anger Violet.

"What the bloody hell is wrong with you Draco Malfoy!" Violet whispered/yelled slapping Draco over the head before enveloping him in her arms, "Never scare me like that again."

"We have to go," Draco said.

Violet nodded holding on to Draco's right hand with her left hand and his upper right arm with her right hand.

"I already packed some of my stuff," Narcissa said as she picked up a matchbox sized trunk.

"Same place?" Harry asked pulling out the parchment with his properties, everyone nodded before he said, "Hold on."

With a tug they all arrived back on Prescott Street in San Francisco, California. It was now close to 2:30 pm their time.

"Welcome to my home," Harry said, "There are three rooms upstairs plus an attic and a basement you can chose which one you'd like to make your room, but there isn't any furniture in them so we'd have to go shopping. Since it is my house it is all on me."

'I'm staying with you right?' Hermione thought a little worried.

"Of course, Love, you are my wife so you aren't sleeping anywhere else except by my side,' Harry thought kissing her temple.

Violet looked back at the couple, since they were just standing there and the others have started to head inside. Draco stopped to see what his girlfriend was looking at.

"I wonder if they can talk to each other telepathically like we can," Violet said to Draco who just shrugged.

"You can talk to each other telepathically?" Hermione asked over hearing Violet.

"Yeah, so?" Draco asked.

"We can only do that because we are soul bound," Hermione said.

"Soul bound?" Narcissa asked, "You think they are too."

"They'd have to be if they can talk telepathically," Harry said.

"Would you three like to clue us in?" Draco asked wondering what was going on.

"Let's do this inside," Narcissa said ushering the teens inside the house.

Once they were all seated in the living room; Hermione and Violet on their perspective partner's laps.

"How long have you two been able to do that?" Harry asked.

"Ever since we first kissed, why?" Violet asked.

"Your soul bonded," Narcissa said.

"Okay you've said that... many times but what does that mean," Draco said.

"We're married," Violet said with her eyes wide, "A soul bond is a rare bond between two magical. Binding their powers, emotions, and physical feelings together to make us stronger; they are so rare the pair is married in the eyes of magic."

"Correct," Narcissa said, "You could also gain a range of abilities along with it."

"When did you two kiss?" Harry asked out of the blue.

"What?" Violet asked.

"About 10:30 yesterday morning, why?" Draco answered.

'We need to tell them,' Harry thought.

'Agreed,' Hermione thought.

"We have something we need to say," Hermione said.

"As of yesterday at 10:34 am, Hermione and I are reliving now," Harry said, "We don't know how but the powers that be has sent us back to change the past, well now present, and save all the innocent lives that didn't need to be lost."

"I'm so confused," Violet said leaning back into Draco, "You are saying I am married to Draco and you two are time travellers... you are insane."

"Well time travellers have their past selves in the timeline with them, and well we are our past selves," Hermione said.

"If you don't believe us then we should go to Gringotts, they'll tell you, plus I need to get some money out and converted for the furniture," Harry said.

"Fine, but you can get a debit or a credit card like thing from Gringotts that works in both muggle and magical stores," Violet said.

"Are we going to Diagon Alley?" Hermione asked.

"Yeah, Director Ragnok will want to talk to you," Harry said.

"You've talked to Director Ragnok?" Narcissa asked surprised, "He never gets involved with Wizard issues."

"Well he sure like us," Harry said, "He wants us to go straight to him if we need to talk to a goblin."

"Dobby, can you take us there?" Hermione asked.

"Yes Missy Mione," Dobby said as everyone placed a finger on the little elf and he took them to Diagon alley, once there Dobby popped away.

The five magical headed straight for the goblin-run bank, once inside they went to the goblin teller at the end of the building.

"Hello Griphook," Harry greeted.

"Ah, Lo—Harry, nice to see you; what can I do for you today?" Griphook asked.

"If possible we'd like to talk to the director, we would have owled but we didn't want the chance of them being intercepted," Harry explained.

"I see," Griphook said walking around his table, "Right this way."

Griphook led the group to Ragnok's office.

"It is quit late don't you think Harry," Ragnok said, "I was just about to head home."

"I'm sorry Director Ragnok," Harry said with a bow, "My Friends Violet McAdams and Draco Malfoy are soul bound but do not believe me when I say so."

"Ah, another soul bound couple, how rare of a thing it is, and to have another set born in the same year as another, even more rare," Ragnok said.

"Sorry for interrupting Director, but I am a year younger than everyone else," Violet said.

"Well if I am correct about your parentage as I believe I am, than you have been lied to more than you may have thought," Ragnok said.

"My parentage, what about my parents?" Violet asked.

"Why don't you five sit down and I'll get started," Ragnok said and with a snap of his long goblin fingers five arm chairs appeared and the witches/wizards sat down before Ragnok continued, "I'd like to do a parentage test on you, with you permission of course."

Violet nodded.

With another snap of his fingers a silver bowl appeared with a purple liquid in it and a goblin made knife beside it.

"Place a drop of blood into the bowl," Ragnok instructed.

Violet picked up the knife and put a small cut on the tip of hr right pointer finger; she gently squeezed the cut over the bowl until two drops of blood landed in the purple liquid turning it red. A little puff of grey smoke appeared over the bowl leaving a small slip of parchment floating down into Violets hands.

"Only you can read it," Ragnok said simply, "You may keep the information to yourself or tell your bond mate and friends. Mr. Malfoy will not know what the parchment reads until you tell him yourself as it has something similar to the wizard's Fidelius Charm."

"I was born September 1st 1981 at 12:01 am," Violet said in shock, "I should have been in the same year as you since I would have been 11 before getting on the train."

"Who could have done this?" Draco asked angrily.

"Dumbledore," Harry said, "He must have done something."

"That is a likely possibility Harry, I wish to start a goblin law investigation on him," Ragnok said, "It'll stay quiet until we have enough evidence to arrest the old wizard; what do you say?"

"Yes," Hermione said, "I have another question, has anything else other than money gone missing from any of Harry's vaults?"

"With the short time we had last time we didn't have a chance to fully go over your vaults but yes, other than the money Dumbledore has taken almost one billion galleons worth of family heirlooms from the vaults," Ragnok said looking through a folder that was on his desk, "I have been personally looking through your files since the last time you were here and I have found a few very interesting things to share with you, but since it is getting late here is the list of things," Ragnok handed Hermione a thick looking scroll, "As for Draco Malfoy and his new wife we should make another appointment to go through Violet's parentage and what being soul bound entails for you too."

"Director Ragnok before we leave is it possible for us to get a couple of those muggle-like debit cards so we don't have to contently run down to the vaults?" Harry asked.

"Sure," Ragnok said rummaging through one of his desk drawers and he pulled out a stack of plastic cards, "How many would you like and which vaults would you like them linked to?"

"I'd like one each for Hermione and I with Potter vaults, and one for Violet, Draco, and Narcissa with the Black vault," Harry said.

"You don't have to do that Harry," Narcissa said.

"You need money Narcissa, beside you're a Black, it's technically your money too," Harry said, "Oh, that reminds me, is there any way to void Narcissa's marriage to Lucius Malfoy?"

"Since you are her head of house and the marriage was one of a contract you can void the contract and take back the dowry," Ragnok said, "All you have to do is proclaim, 'I, Harry James Potter-Black, proclaim the marriage contract between one Narcissa Malfoy nee Black and one Lucius Malfoy to be null and void; so mot it be.' and that it all."

Harry nodded before repeating what Ragnok told him to say with wand in hand Harry took a deep breath before saying, "I, Harry James Potter-Black, proclaim the marriage contract between one Narcissa Malfoy nee Black and one Lucius Malfoy to be null and void; so mot it be."

"Narcissa Malfoy is no longer, Narcissa Black returns!" Ragnok said happily before he got back down to business, "Do you need any more of these cards?"

"Not at the moment no," Hermione said.

"We are going to need more later for our muggleborn support program which we still have to come back in to get started," Harry said.

"We'll tell you later," Hermione said noticing their friends' faces.

"Director Ragnok, back to what you said about Dumbledore stealing things from my vault is it possible to slowly take them back so he doesn't notice them disappearing?" Harry asked, "I don't want him to know how much we know at the moment."

"That is smart Harry, use your knowledge as power," Ragnok said, "And yes we can slowly recall the heirlooms back into their proper vaults; but what about the money?"

"I say we should wait a little bit longer on that, until we at least establish who we can trust and all," Hermione said, "Is it possible for us to take a copy of the files home with us to look over?"

"Of course," Ragnok said and with a snap of his fingers a miniature stack of folders appeared in front of her, "Just tap them with your wand to make them return to proper size and once more to shrink again."

"Thank you Director, it is getting late we should get going," Harry said.

"Of course, I'll be in touch with all of you for future meetings we have already discussed and more if more information comes up," Ragnok said bidding the group farewell.

Harry pulled out the parchment of his house listing and the five of them returned to 1329 Prescott Street.

That night Draco and Violet were alone in the living room, everyone else went to bed about an hour ago.

"Violet," Draco said scooting towards his wife on the couch, "You haven't said a word to me since earlier... What's wrong?"

"When were you going to tell me?" Violet asked not looking at the blond beside her.

"What do you mean?" Draco asked.

"About Voldemort," Violet said turning to Draco, "When were you going to tell me about joining Voldemort?"

"I wasn't, I thought ... I don't know what I thought," Draco said, "But I'd never make you join him."

'But I am going to, to keep you safe,' Draco though accidentally.

"Draco Malfoy you are not!" Violet whisper/yelled trying not to wake anyone.

"Violet, they know who you are, they will come after you," Draco said, "If I don't go they will come to kill you and my mother."

"You are not going alone," Violet said, "If you are going so am I."

"Violet..."

"What time do we have to be there?" Violet asked sternly.

"9 tomorrow night," Draco said with his head down.

Violet enveloped him in a hug, and said, "I love you," into his ear.

The next day at 8:45 pm, Violet and Draco Malfoy were gone not to be seen again until September 1st aboard the Hogwarts Express.
