In a swirl of colors Nova arrived in the past and seconds later a klaxon alarm sounded through the chamber, the doors were thrown open and an army of goblins appeared with their swords pointed at her. The Director emerged from behind them shouting
"Witch don't move, throw your wand down and state how you arrived in the Ritual Chamber!"
Nova slowly dropped her wand and kicked it closer to the Director then she put her hands palm forward in front of herself.
"I mean no harm Director if you would allow it I have a letter to give to you which will explain how and why I'm here, In fact the letter is on this bracelet which is goblin made and was a gift from Master Griphook."
The Director seemed shocked as Griphook wasn't even a Master of a vault yet and wouldn't be for a couple of years unless he was requested by a Vault Holder. He motioned one of the guards forward
"Bladechain remove the bracelet and check her claims."
"Yes Sir!"
Bladechain slowly made his way to Nova and gently removed the bracelet, on his way back towards his boss he looked over the bracelet and saw that her claims were correct.
"Director she is right, the bracelet and its charms are indeed goblin made and are steeped in goblin magic!" he said slightly shocked
Director Bluefire was extremely confused as he didn't remember allowing a bracelet to be given to a human, never mind a witch!
"State your name witch and tell me what those charms hold!"
"My name was Nova Jade Potter now Nova Jade Baudelaire. The 4 trunks hold my family fortune, every book I could get my hands on, heirlooms and clothes for school and general day by day but the scroll holds my old and new I.D which was made for me by goblins of Gringotts and also includes the letters I mentioned addressed to you and the Headmaster of Hogwarts to inform you both that I am from the future, the year 1999 to be exact and that I am not an enemy of the noble race of Goblins!" Nova declared in a strong even voice keeping her eyes towards the floor to show her submission.
The Director unshrunk the scroll charm, when it was back to its original size he noticed that it was a scroll shaped box. He opened it to see that she was correct so he grabbed the file that was labelled I.D to see her name was Nova Jade Potter born July 1980 to Lily Rose Potter nee Evans died October 1981 and James Charles Potter October died 1981,Now going by Nova Jade Baudelaire born to Evelyn Baudelaire nee Heart and Gabriel Baudelaire. He then picked up the letter with his name squiggled across it in his own handwriting and when he opened it, he found that it was addressed to himself from his future self explaining how the war that was just starting was ended in 1981 and then restarted in 1995. How Nova was the answer in finishing it all before it truly began, also that she was a True Friend of the Goblin Nation and there at the bottom was his personal stamp as Director engraved in wax so he knew the letter wasn't a magic trick.
"Stand down Guards this witch is a true friend of our race, her name is Lady Nova Baudelaire and she is from the future. Lady Baudelaire please follow me so we can discuss what you may need from Gringotts."
The dozen guards parted from the front of the doors to let their Director and guest through, each whispering about how it was amazing that someone had done the impossible and managed to get through all their wards and even travel through time. Director Bluefire led Nova to his office which was deep down in the caves and was crafted as beautiful as the chamber room but has dark brown wooden shelves dotted around the room full of every book a banker would need, cherry wood desk was placed in the middle of the room facing towards the double doors they had just entered through. Bluefire took his seat behind the desk and waved to Nova to take the seat placed before the desk.
"So the letter said you were the Lady of the Ancient and Noble Houses of Potter and Black and that you've brought all the money, jewellery and heirlooms back with you to be placed into a high security vault under your new name plus you want us to contact Dumbledore so the news of a time traveller won't become public is that correct?"
"Yes please Master Bluefire also can you create a credit card that connects to my vault so that I can use it in the Muggle and Wizarding world?" She asked as she passed him the gold and green trunks.
"Of course Lady Baudelaire, Clipknife could you please ask Griphook to come here and get a credit card made for Lady Baudelaire an Also contact Albus Dumbledore to come as soon as possible!" Bluefire asked over a nifty speaking device that was on his desk.
A "Yes Sir" was returned gently in the room
"As we wait for that to be sorted would you like some refreshments, maybe a biscuit?"
"No thank you Master Bluefire but I would like to ask before I forget could you possibly help me acquire a house somewhere near Hogsmeade or maybe even Godrics Hollow, if that isn't possible could you point me in the direction I need to go to buy one?"
"Of course, one of our current vault holders is selling his cottage in Godrics Hollow and has asked us to sort out the details needed to sell. It's a simple 3 Bedroom Thatched Cottage with an upstairs and basement, It has a family bathroom and the main bedroom has an ensuite, a kitchen which is full of the newest appliances and breakfast bar. A dining room, study, library and living room, a herb and vegetable garden all ready to grow and even a small Koi pond. He is selling it for 170,000 gallons"
It seemed like Bluefire had read it from a script yet there was no paper in front of him. Just as he finished explaining it Griphook knocked and walked in holding the newly made card.
"Here is the credit card you ordered Director!" spoke a very young Griphook as he bowed and placed the card onto the desk.
"Thank you Griphook. Griphook this is our newest customer Lady Nova Baudelaire, Lady Nova this is the Goblin you want in charge of your account?"
Poor Griphook seemed shocked at being asked by someone who he had never met!
"Good evening Griphook, yes he is the goblin I would like as my account manager please Griphook!"
"Alright then, all we need to do now is to deposit your gallons and jewellery, connect the card up have you sign these documents that state that you wish for Griphook to be in charge of your account and then you are sorted Lady Nova!" exclaimed Bluefire "Unless you wish to buy the house I mentioned in Godrics Hollow?"
Nova signed the documents as Bluefire, with a wave of his hand, sent the trunks where they needed to go. A piece of parchment appeared stating how much and what was in her new vault, the number of her vault and also her vault key appeared next to it.
"Now everything has been deposited here is your key and.." he clicked his fingers and a deed to the house appeared "here is the deed, all you need to do is sign with this blood quil and the deed will be transferred to your name and the money moved from your account!" he said passing over her credit card and key to Nova
She put both the key and card in one of her pockets in her shorts and grabbed the blood quil and signed her name on the deed. With a deep breath in she was now a house owner and by the address written on the deed, she was living down the road to Potters Cottage which she knew the Potter family and their tag along Sirius lived.
"Hopefully I could meet my granddad & nana this time around" she thought as she passed the signed deed back to Bluefire
"Now all that's left is for Lord Dumbledore to arrive and explain everything and get you enrolled into Hogwarts as a transfer student from home schooling"!
Clipknifes voice bounced around the rooms "Director Bluefire Lord Albus Dumbledore has arrived shall I send him straight in?"
"Ah we seem to be having a stroke of luck Lady Nova!" pressing his nifty speaker Bluefire replied "Please do Clipknife"
Not a minute later there was a knock before Albus Dumbledore appeared before them in his creative robes bowing gently to Bluefire
"Good Evening Director to what do I owe the pleasure?" Dumbledore asked as he made his way towards the only seat available next to Nova "Oh excuse my manners I didn't realise I was interrupting a meeting" he said upon seeing Nova sitting in the other seat.
"It is because of this young lady I have asked you to be here Lord Dumbledore and I'm sure when you hear her story you won't be worrying about manners!"
"Oh really then it must be quite a story please do tell me my dear!" he asked whilst picking up a cup of tea that had appeared on the desk
"As you wish Headmaster, you see my name is Lady Nova Jade Potter-Black and I was born …" Nova then went on to explain everything from that Halloween night to how she ended up in the past in June 1977, all the while Dumbledore just sat there drinking tea and every now and then sucking on a lemon drop from a secret pocket in his cloak with a calm expression, yet there was an increasing twinkle in his eyes.
"So.." he spoke when Nova was finished "I guess you would like to change the outcome of the war and save all who were lost if so how you plan to do so?"
"Well I now know how far Voldemort went to be immortal, he has created 6 hocruxes. 2 he gave to two of his most zealous death eaters, one is here in the Lestrange vault and the other is in Malfoy Manor. Another 1 is in the Room of Requirement, 1 is in the cave north of his first home the orphanage, another is in the groundskeepers hut at Riddle Manor and the last I his snake Nagini. He will accidently create a seventh on Halloween 1981 when he successfully kills me parents and tries to kill me. He tried to kill me apart of his soul panicked and latched itself to the only living thing around which was me. Hopefully that won't happen as he will be killed way before my parents get married, one way or the other!"
Nova took a breath before continuing
"I will be documenting everything that I know about Tom Riddle which can be useful in stopping him, I one naively thought he could be saved and have spent many nights trying to find the reason he turned to torture and death when his basic thoughts and plans for the Wizarding world were in fact very justified, for example we have lost most of our wiccan inheritance. Samhain has turned into Halloween ere spooky decorations and candy, we have forgotten to pay tribute to our ancestors and thank Lady Magic, Yule has become Christmas. We have done this so muggleborns feel more at ease and whilst I was thankful for the semblance of normal in a world of such difference, I was also disappointed that witchcraft and wizardry has lost its essence basically. Also the time of transaction for muggleborns is severely lacking which is causing those who have grown up a magical household to be slowed down and cause those who didn't know trying to catch up to just the basics. The worst part is the magical world doesn't even have a department dedicated to muggleborns and their development which leaves over half of them facing abuse because people without magic don't understand what is happening to their children which in most cases leaves the children open to mental and even physical abuse. Toms' idea of taking them from their homes at birth is very drastic it is worth considering which I mean the Ministry of Magic could send witch and wizards out to those homes when the child's first bout of accidental magic occurs to inform the parents and give them options of placing the child in a magical family of have a social worker visit once a fortnight to help them understand and care for the child. They could even open up a magical primary school so they can speak to other children who also have magic and feel like such a freak and learn alongside the purebloods so that Hogwarts doesn't have to start at the very very basic, offer a lot more courses and minimise the rift between the houses. It also shows the purebloods that muggleborns aren't trying to change the magical world and hopefully sort out the inbreeding which helps the chances of increasing the children born in pureblood homes. It's been proven that the only reason for negativity towards muggleborns is the change in traditions and the fact that most of them don't learn the importance of magic staying hidden. If we bring them in sooner they are less likely to go back to the muggle world which decreases the chances of us being discovered. We could even find a section of England or build an island to create a magical community were we can all live, shop work and learn together. All this means we have a chance to increase the departments in the MoM and help increase the income to the magical world due to having more applicants. If we have muggles teaching the children more things about the muggle world i.e History of muggles, transportation, the day to day appliances we have a better chance of blending in if we ever venture into the muggle world which again decreases our chances of being discovered and it also helps the parents of muggleborns feel included inn their children's lives!" She felt so much better getting her thoughts out to people who would actually listen and might even see her point yet won't stick her in prison for being an extremist.
"Wow Nova you have really thought about it haven't you!" breathed Dumbledore seemingly shocked at the depth of her plans and thoughts towards finishing the war and saving Britons Magical community
"Indeed I have Albus. If we do everything I have said and more the chances of having another Dark Lord are slim. Many children of abuse will always go one of two ways. They will become just like their abusers or even more evil and will think it is justified because that is the only way they have ever known or go the complete opposite way and vow to be nothing like their abusers and in essence be as good as they can be. Tom and I basically had to same childhood, beaten and abused for something out of our control. Labelled a freak anf feeling unloved, unwanted, afraid but we went the opposite way. We dealt with our abuse differently. Tom learned how to be just as evil as those who tormented him so they wouldn't harm him anymore and this gave him a semblance of control and freedom so it became his whole world and along the way he lost his chance to be loved, to know what true friendship and family were. I don't think he knew what that was and being sorted into Slytherin which was full of purebloods who valued power over seemingly meaningless friendship and support, who only wanted connections and gain more money and fame certainly crumbled any chances he had to become someone else."
Sighing softly she continued
"I on the other hand had a memory of a lady saying I love you and Daddy Loves you, even her voice humming me to sleep to help me keep the belief in the good of the world. I knew one day I would be free of the Dursleys and that I wasn't a freak, that I was loved so I knew when I was could, would become that lady and hum that song to a child of my own and I would find someone to love me. I had something to hold on and then I had Hogwarts which proved to me I wasn't a freak, then Hermione and Ron became my support, my solace, the voices of reason in my crazy world. They kept telling me over and over that one day I will have my family and my peace to be whoever I wanted to be and a grandfather who became my crying shoulder even a godfather who broke out of prison to make sure I was save and offer me a home. Just that offer of a different life helped me and kept my faith that It would all be over. Even now, when I have lost them all you Albus have given me another chance. That shows me how loved and worthy I am and so help me merlin not another child will go through everything Tom and I have if I have something to say about it !
