Chapter 2: Family Reunion?

Harry didn't know how long he had been out, hopefully not too long, as the last thing he remembered was sitting in his seat looking over his family tree, and he was now laying on the floor with Sirius hovering over him with a look of worry on his face.

"Harry? Harry, look at me," Sirius asked, gently gaining the attention.

He didn't want Harry to get scared and go into shock.

Although he probably would have got more of a reaction than he was getting right now, because Harry was paying very little attention to him right now.

He had a family, a family that was still out there in the world that were wondering whatever happened to the little baby that he was at the time, where he was, what condition he was in, was he being looked after, would they ever be able to find him?

With those thoughts in his head, his body shot up as fast as it could go, just barely missing a head on collision with Sirius.

"Whoa, slow down kid. You just fainted, you don't want to push your limits do you?" Sirius told the teen. He ended up having to help Harry back to his seat as the teen was proving to be uncooperative, almost to the point that Sirius was tempted to knock him out again just so he would stop struggling against him.

"Why? Why? Why did this happen? How did it happen?" Harry questioned, but to no one in particular.

He was in too much of a dazed state to fully comprehend what was happening and what was going to happen.

"Why this happened my lord," Stoneblade began, making the two humans jump a little, being so caught up in their talk that they completely forgot about the goblin being in the room.

"Is something that we are unable to tell you about. How it happened, however, we may be able to determine," he explained.

"How?" Harry asked.

He didn't want to sound desperate at the moment, but after everything that he had been told since entering this office and the fact that his entire life was practically a lie, he could probably be excused for his actions considering the situation.

"Well Lord Potter, from what we have been to gather with the research we have conducted, you were kidnapped from your family home shortly after you were born and then left on the doorstep of Potter Manor not too long after your original disappearance. We have some suspicion on who the kidnapper is, but we will need time to confirm the identity before we can take further action," Stoneblade explained.

"Is there anything that could be done quickly?" Harry begged.

He had realised that he probably sounded just a little bit pathetic, maybe a smidgen bit childish but who could blame him.

Stoneblade knew for a fact that they were limited on what they could in a small amount of time, in fact there was next to nothing that could be accomplished within the next few hours.

"I am afraid there is very little we can do at the moment my lord, not until we cam gather more information with our investigations. Until then, it shall remain a waiting game."

It was plain to see the disappointment that Harry was feeling at that point in time, and could anyone blame him? Years of believing that he was the last of his family, forced to live with people who thought him as a stain upon their perfect lives, then being dragged into a world were he was there saviour one minute and then a complete lunatic that should be locked up the next minute.

All the young man had ever wanted was to be accepted by people, both friends and family, for who he is and not someone that was to bare the burden of the world on his shoulders.

Truth be told, some people were born with a royal flush and would sore to the top of society.

Harry, quite rightly, thought that he had been dealt a bunch of junk and was heading up shits creek without a paddle.

"Well, thank you anyway. Can't expect miracles can I?" He asked in what was meant to be a comical tone, but failing all the same.

"Do not worry my lord, Gringotts shall be doing what we can to complete all investigations as quickly as possible. Until such a time comes, I can offer a small piece of comfort for the time being," Stoneblade offered the distraught teen.

Although Sirius had remained quiet for a while now, his attention was now firmly upon the goblin, as was Harry's.

"What is it that you could offer?" He asked on Harry's behalf.

It was the first time that Sirius could ever say that he saw a Goblin smile gently at a human customer in their bank.

"What I can offer my lord, is the use of my office for when your family arrives to meet you. I sent a quick memo out whilst you were unconscious, and I expect them to arrive before the bank closes for the day," Stoneblade explained.

It was a very good idea that Harry was sitting down at the time.

He might have have ended up on the floor again

Royal Palace, Khemet, Royal court meeting room

"Are you sure that the information is correct Mahad?"

The royal palace of Khemet was quite rightly considered a work of art, originally built over 5,000 years ago during the times of the old pharaohs, it had been maintained throughout the centuries by the greatest of stone masons and sorcerers to keep its natural beauty.

It was now the home of Pharaoh Atemu Sennen, the oldest son of the former pharaoh Aknamkanon.

Atemu was currently in a meeting with his royal court and discussing a situation that was beginning to become a concern for the pharaoh.

Mahad, the man that Atemu had addressed and the chief of palace security, had been given to him by one of his men posted by the borders of Egypt.

"I am afraid so my Pharaoh. This group of wizards has been seen coming and going for over 1 moon cycle, and they have been very consistent with the appearances and what my men believe to be attempting to gather information," Mahad explained from the seat his was in at the table.

At the head of the table, sitting in a golden, ornate throne like chair, was Atemu.

To his immediate right was his uncle and chief spy master, priest Aknadin. The keeper of the Millenium Eye.

On Aknadin's right was Mahad, the keeper of the Millenium Ring.

To the right of Mahad was Priest Karim, head of the Palace finances and trading with foreign countries. He was the keeper of the Millenium Scales.

At the top of the table and to the immediate left of Atemu was his cousin and High priest to the royal court, Priest Seth. He was the keeper of The Millenium Rod.

To the left of Seth was the only woman of the royal court, Priestess Isis, the chief Royal physician and Royal Seer. She was the keeper of the Millenium Neckless.

And finally, the last member of the royal court, sitting to the left of Isis was Priest Shada, the official record keeper and law giver of the Royal court. He was the keeper of the Millenium key.

Atemu was becoming concerned about these foreign wizards. The report he was reading from one of the soldiers Mahad had posted at the country borders, and what he had seen and heard thus from from the wizards, English wizards he noticed.

The last time there had been English wizards in Egypt was in 1979, a group of English pureblooded had come to seek information about the Millenium items, and then attempting to purchase said items.

His father, who was Pharaoh at the time, was not impressed when the wizards, when granted permission to a meeting in the palace, wanted to buy the Millenium Puzzle from his farther for quite a large amount of gold and would not leave until they struck a deal.

After several hours of negotiating on their part, and numerous refusals from his farther, ended when the wizards were furious at Aknamkanon and had attempted to attack and steal the Puzzle with deadly force.

Needless to say that they were quickly subdued, given trial and executed for the attempted assassination of a member of the Royal family.

This time they were back, and once again trying to gather information. It was more than likely that they would be attempting to have a meeting soon with him just like their predecessors did with his farther.

"We will need to prepare for any potential encounters. I will not risk a repeat of 1979," Atemu commanded.

He was greeted with mummers of agreements from the council, Aknadin was the loudest of the group as he remembered what happened at that faithful meeting and would be making sure that there would be No Chance of a repeat.

"Do not worry my Pharaoh, I already have my little birds out and listening to everything there is to know about this group. With the assistance from Mahad and his soldiers, they will most certainly not even make it past the first task or the Duat should they attempt anything," Aknadin informed his king.

Atemu nodded in agreement with the measures that his uncle was taking. Being the last official parental figure that he had left, it was very refreshing to have a man of such experience there for him to fall back on for advice when he needed it.

"Isis, is there anything you have been able to see regarding these wizards?" Atemu asked the woman.

Said Priestess had already closed her eyes, her hands now caressing the Millenium Neckless as she was breathing very deeply. Shada, who was right next to Isis, already had a quill out with some papyrus to write down anything that Isis was Seeing.

Her eyes snapped open and were now glowing in pure magic, a sign of a true vision.

"The gods have spoken, the deities are in agreement. Within 12 cycles of the moon, a war shall erupt unless action is taken. Warriors of the snake behind the skulls shall bring forth nothing but destruction. The Snake shall seek to destroy the child of the sky, he operates within the domain of the moon. While the sheep with scatter among the lands, the child of the sky shall face his divine trial of the gods. Should he fail, the world shall be destroyed, if he prevails, the lands Shall once again prosper as the lands of The Old Kings."

With the last word spoken, Isis was released form her trance and was now sucking in the air that she needed after being one with her inner self for such a period of time.

Seth was by her side making sure that she wouldn't collapse on her self. Atemu was almost out of his seat in concern over the woman. Aknadin, Mahad, Karim and Shada Were all looking on in concern at the woman.

All Egyptians knew that being connected to your magical core as well as your inner self was not something to be taken lightly. While the magical core of a person was powerful in itself if you truly connected to it, if you joined your core to your inner self at the same time, the power was something that only the most highly trained of people would be able to control.

It had happened several times through Egyptian history, the last one to almost lose control was a young peasant girl whose inner self was that of a very powerful dragon. It was thanks to the care and support of Seth that the young woman did not die and was now living at the palace with Seth, both of them perusing a romantic relationship with each other.

"Are you well enough to continue here today Isis?" Atemu asked her as She Was now back to breathing normally, giving a small nod of thanks to Seth for his support.

"I am well my Pharaoh, the gods have blessed my magic today. I shall be fine to carry on today," she replied.

All the court were preparing to continue the meeting when a servant quickly entered the room, carrying in their hand a rolled up parchment with them.

"Begging your pardon my Pharaoh, but an urgent message was delivered by falcon and requires your immediate attention," the servant explained with a bow to their monarch.

"Thank you for your quick work in bringing this message. Do you know where the message hails from?" Atemu questioned as he took the parchment.

"The falcon was one that would be used by the magical bank of the United Kingdom my Pharaoh."

Atemu gave a nod and silently dismissed the servant as he opened the parchment and taking note of who it was from.

Axe Lord Ragnarok of Gringotts, Ruler of the Goblin nation and chief executive officer of the bank.

Greetings Pharaoh,

May Ra have blessed you with eternal bravery and valour in your dealings.

Distressing news has reached Gringotts today with the Results of a blood test performed on one of our customers.

Senior Manager Stoneblade, manager to the vaults and dealings of the Potter family of the bank, and one of the most prestigious clients of the bank, sent a very urgent missive today concerning the results of a blood test performed on the last remaining member of the Potter family, Harry Potter.

It Was through the Results of this blood test that revealed that the young Potter heir was blood adopted into the family, and was of a great, and most shocking discovery, that the blood test identified Mr Potter heir as Amun Ra Sennen I, the second born child of Pharaoh Aknamkanon and younger brother to your highness, missing for 14 years.

We are greatly disturbed to the circumstances of how the second in line to the throne of Egypt ended up here within out jurisdiction, however a full investigation is currently being carried out on everything that Gringotts can acquire to find the person responsible.

His highness Amun Ra is currently still in meeting with Senior Manager Stoneblade, and will be continuing to do so for the rest of the sunlight hours.

Gringotts graciously offers your highness the facilities to meet with the prince within the building of Gringotts.

Fare well to you my Pharaoh and may the gods bestow upon you much riches and great success in your ventures,

Axe Lord Ragnarok II, Ruler of the Goblin Nation

Much emotion went across the face of Atemu as he read the message from Gringotts, however as he continued to read, his eyes continued to grow wider and wider until the could go no further.

The royal court was beginning to worry what was causing such distress to their king.

But with what happened next, neither the court nor Atemu could truly know at the time, Atemu emulated his brother with exactly the same actions he took within the bank.

He too, much like Amun Ra, blacked out and fainted.
