Chapter 6
Harry, now clearly awake then groaned. All the events that had happened then came to him before he shot up, looking around the familiar room, with the Goblin, Griphook still seated over his desk with the parchment in hand and a furious gaze looking over at it.
"Um.." Harry then stood up, albeit slowly due to his legs feeling a little jelly. "Griphook?" Harry then sat himself back at the seat he previously vacated. Griphook, now out of whatever trance he was in then turned to the green-eyed teen with that familiar smirk on his face. "Ah, Mr.Potter, feeling alright then?" Harry then nodded, giving the Goblin a appreciative smile before blushing embarrassed that he just fainted Infront of a Goblin. "Yeah-" he then scratched the back of his neck, looking down at the wooden desk. "Sorry about that, I just- I was not expecting that at all. It's just-" He then felt his chest to tighten and his eyes to water.
He took a deep shaky breath..
Closed his eyes, counted one to ten before finally looking up at the Goblin.
"My father- his alive and- and he did not even looked for me, and now that I find out that Snape is my mother- of all people! He hates me! And- God" his voice then started to break but continued nonetheless. "What am I Ganna do Griphook? I'm so confused- I don't know what to believe anymore." The Goblin then just nodded, feeling a little bit awkward with the emotions that has been showed, but feeling sadden for the boy.
"Okay- now Mr.Potter I am aware of this having a huge impact in your life-" Harry then cut off "IT IS!" Harry then blushed at the look the Goblin sent his way. "As I was saying- there might be some other things that has been placed upon you- like potions, glamour, compulsions and the like- for first, you have been lied, second this is some serious issue and can lead that culprit to a lifetime in Azkaban." Harry then nodded.
"Well- I am already aware of that actually." The Goblin then raised a brow at that, urging Harry to continue. "The weasleys- they, I don't know if all of them did it but they put compulsions on me and the Love potion they kept me fed with. Ofcourse I avoided them all, I just- I don't know what to believe anymore..." Harry then shook his head in resignation. " Fear not mister Potter, there is a way in knowing what and when potions and what not are being placed on said person." Harry's head shot up fast, making him a bit still busy, still not over with being fainted. "Really?!" Harry cried out in question. "Yes. It has a similar process with the identification we just did earlier, are you up for it?" Harry then nodded at that. "Yes, do what you must." The Goblin then complied.
The Goblin then handed Harry another similar piece of parchment and the same dagger. "Now, prick your finger, let 7 drops of blood, no more, no less fall into he parchment, it will show something similar to this" he pointed over the parchment with his pointing long finger. "It will contain the potions and spells applied to you, and when it was applied BUT it may be a problem to know whom administered it due to the magical signature of said person fading over time." Harry then nodded at that but felt a little crest fallen at that last bit.
Griphook then passed over the parchment and dagger over to Harry who took it without second thought and did as told. There, in the parchment listed the compulsions placed when he was a tot, a year and half old of the compulsions, mainly the obedience and submissiveness of the person administered. It also said of the supposed to be legal marriage contract keyed to Ginny Weasley at the age where she will be Graduating Hogwarts that was signed but none other than Dumbledore and Molly Weasley. On and on the list when long with what they had done to Harry and the countless times they gave him that love poison, even during the feast at Hogwarts. He noted, he should get Dobby make his food from now on just to be safe.
Harry then sighed, dropping the Parchment but before that, a single word caught Harry's eye (Glamour) it is said that it was placed right after his parents supposed to be passing. Harry then looked up at Griphook questioningly, who in turn just nodded. "Well as it seems Mr.Potter that a Glamour has been placed on you, to make you look more like your father and have your mother- I mean Lily, bless her soul, have her eyes. Sometimes these Glamours tend to fade away, judging by the date being applied, it should wear off at your 18th Birthday unless it is being re-applied." Harry then nodded, listening with rapt attention before considering his options.
"I wish to take off these Glamours But, I wish for it to be reapplied if necessary, I need to keep my image after all, as for the blocks, I wish it removed as well please. Plus I do not want mother be in danger because of it, Merlin knows maybe their memories we're being wiped because of it." Griphook then nodded with he possibility of it. "Very well then, he then summoned another parchment but this time with words, to what seems to be conditions and what not. "Here Mr.Potter, I would like for you to sign so that in under any circumstances people get any ideas, it will prove to be that you are willing to do this without feeling obliged." Harry then nodded Griphook then handed Harry a quill, who Harry took it. "Are there any ink?"
Griphook just smiled, scarily might I add before shaking his head. "No Merlin no Mr.Potter, it is a blood Quill, A blood Quill is tended to be used in this type of contract, business contract and the like. Hence the name blood because the ink will be using your blood for it to work. I hope it isn't any convenience to you?" Harry just shook his head rapidly at that. "No- no, it's fine... I'll sign it." Harry then sighed it, feeling a sting across his hand. There he saw the exact replica of his signature, plastered across his arm, blood forming over it as he dropped the Quill right after.
The Goblin then noticed this and snapped his finger, a bandage then floated over Harry's arm, nudging it to let his hand go, to which Harry complied, the Bandage cloth then wrapped itself around Harry's arm before floating back to the cabinet. "Well that was pleasant." Harry then mumbled, still feeling the sting over his hand. The Goblin then chuckled at that, finding Harry's pain amusing. "Well, it's not all sunshines and rainbows is not now." The Goblin then collected the Contract and the 2 parchment earlier and duplicating the 2 parchment before handing it over to Harry.
"Here, keep the copy of it encase you find yourself in a situation where you'd need to explain yourself but can't. I'll keep the original here Incase you need backup." Harry then took the copied parchment, rolling it up before placing it over his jacket, making sure it's secure, and not like what had happened to his sketchbook. darn it!
The Goblin then rolled the parchment, placing it over one of his drawers before sitting up from his chair. "Now then, if you will just go through that door, you will meet one of my colleagues, Ragnok who will be performing the ritual, and other Goblins for backup, there are cases for the ritual to go wrong but worry not, it was over 50 years ago." Harry then gave the Goblin a half hearted glare who in turn just smirked clearly amused. "If I did, I'm suing you." The Goblin then scoffed. "You'd be dead, you can't sue me." The Goblin then replied with equal sarcasm. Harry then went over to the door, mumbling about 'Stupid Goblin' and 'Stupid know-it all.' before the doors closed.
Griphook just smiled fondly at his friend. 'Stupid foolish boy, you will bring our world to it's former glory one day, and I promise you, I will stand by your side and watch Dumbledore fall, so just you wait Dumbledore. You. Will. Pay.'
