harry looked around the dingy room, blacks home was depressing shrunken heads of dead elves musty smells, dust, ew.

the women in the portrait looked like she we debating whether to throw him out of the house, that was until she saw the lord ship ring on his finger.

"oh my lord, welcome to my humble home"

harry inclined his head respectfully to the portrait.

"my lazy disgracefully son has the let place deteriorate, this was once a grand property"

she was clearly boasting but harry decided he liked the women if only for not liking sirius.

"it is a shame my lady it would have been a sight to behold more's the pity"

the crazy woman preened.

"the little muggle lover doesn't have access to most of the property, say if i help you will you as they say scratch my back?"

harry felt his eyes slightly narrow but upon seeing the sly look on her face he smirked.

"do tell what are you planning?"

he cast a silencing charm to keep any ears droppers away.

"simple, i let you into the rest of the house with the valuables and you take them, then using the knowledge found there rest everything from the blood traitor, better a Malfoy who shares my blood then that muggle loving disappointment!"

she was spitting by the end of it, harry was glad that it stayed in the portrait.

is was however a interesting proposition, if he took all of the blacks things and money he could use them for the war effort and not exhaust his own funds, harry wasn't into the idea of having nothing after all of his hard work, not counting property of Corse.

"you good lady have a deal"

he knew that she was mistaking him for a black by Malfoy, he was in fact a Black via potter, his great grandmother to be exact, not that he would tell her, he was already surprised that she could tell that he had black blood in him, this painting might have a type of blood magic woven into it, a disturbing thought given blood magic had some seriously bad uses and even the 'good' spells can lead to bad things, not always but you always would have to gamble and decide if it was worth it.

with a grin she pushed  a gem through the rim of the painting the what looked like onyx landed with a muted thud, he picked up the round cut brilliant black diamond, this was a super rare item.

"diamond?"

he muttered.

"yes, at first glance of an untrained eye it looks like onyx but this is no cheap gem, this is the most expensive diamond ever created, so much so that we kept its shavings from when it was cut"

harry nodded looking up.

"so how may this help me lady?"

the mad glint was in her eye as she spoke, she was starting to deteriorate back into madness.

"you draw blood with it and you will enter the time room, there you will find the family secrets take it with you"

harry blanched, the stone would have his DNA meaning it could be used to track him if anyone knew, he would have to keep this a secret he then forced the point into his thumb and winced as it punctured, no blood welled but he did see red flecks in the gem for a moment then the wound was closed and the world started to turn grey and slow, suddenly he was standing in a monochromatic world,  he walked around and saw the order in the kitchen, all frozen he walked up to his ex family, they looked happy enough it seems Godrick wasn't been outright neglected once harry had shot through harry tied his ex brothers shoes together kicked James in the privates and put some cinnamon in lily's mouth, then harry went back to looking, what for he didnt know, he stepped out to the library floor and paused, the door was just as greyed out as everything else, no it was the door floating in the middle of the hallway, the time room harry supposed.

taking a steadying breath he opened the door.

what he found was huge, harry surmised this was the rest of the house, it was grand a luxurious there was paintings vases who knows how many rooms,

harry puzzled at what to do, where was the treasure he was supposed to take.

he stood there long enough to attract the attention of the only awake painting in the room, a clever looking man who's eyes took in everything about the young man.

"not often this painting gets a visit, not since Walburga passed"

harry paused and approached the portrait thoughtfully.

"a pleasure headmaster Phineas Nigellus Black"

Phineas stopped and took a closer look at harry.

"ah i see harry, the king rebelling against Dumbledore's rule, i remember you now, i enjoyed the part where you berated the man for calling you my boy, i thought he would suck on a lemon when he called you king harry"

he paused back to seriousness.

"however i am surprised that Walburga let you in, she dislikes any none pureblood....i see you didnt mention that to her, she must have seen your lordship ring and assumed, that husband of yours sneaks in and talks to me when the headmaster is busy, one of the few children i can stomach"

harry didnt know that about his husband and it must have showed because the man gave a small chuckle.

"he is a Slytherin what did you expect, he is family in Slytherin, i begrudgingly make time for that"

"i see, yes she gave me the diamond and told me something about taking the valuables?"

the man snorted.

"this place has all the valuables, books gems artifacts animals potion ingredients so on, the trick is you need to take the whole space, you need to pack everything into the diamond like you would a magical trunk then attach the place to a physical location the basement of a home, or just place it on the floor the magic will make it appear under your house, until you do much research you cannot hide it like was done here, until then it will be physically somewhere once you place it, then when you rifle through the area somewhere in here is a document that will help you take the black lordship"

harry sighed.

"thats the part i dont get you cant take someone's lordship once they have it"

the older man looked at the roof as if asking for patience.

"that is correct however Sirius was disowned at sixteen, and he isnt the only male descendent meaning he is falsely using the lordship and money because none of the males knew to take it, im guessing Narcissa didnt know that it was a false claim or she would have her son down to the ministry and bank immediately"

harry was floored, the man was disowned, what a secret, but how could he get it past the ministry.....Dumbledore of Corse the man was keeping peoples attention away, he didnt want to loose the money and support of the blacks, who owned a rather large seat in the Wizengamot, between the blacks and the potters the headmaster was able to push his agenda's and get many rules passed even with the Malfoy maneuvering against him.

with a long suffering sigh harry hoped that he wouldnt bother the man too much with this next part.

"so....how do i store it in the ring?"

surprisingly the rather grumpy man didnt snap he didnt look happy but he didnt start calling him an idiot, maybe it was because he was a black by decent or maybe it was because of Draco, maybe even it was because he wasn't too annoying harry wouldn't know but the man was being unusually patent.

"that gem there, yes pretty sparkly that is the key, stick the pointy end in the door outside and it will go into the gem, when you want to get it out agin prick your finger and imagine where you want the door dosnt have to be upright, now when you want to get into the room it will recognize you if you put some blood on the damn thing"

by the end of the speech he was getting irate, clearly the small patience was over.

"thank you sir"

he grunted and harry fled wouldn't do to piss off the man, especially if he wanted more answers later on.

it was a simple matter to put away the space, once the door disappeared he was suddenly in real time again, he made for the entrance hoping no one would notice, he heard james cringing and lilly coughing, he waited a seccond more and wasnt disappointed, there was a wha?- oof as Godrick fell on his face, harry walked in to witness the aftermath.

everyone was so distracted they didnt see the teen sit down next to his godfather, he would feel bad for godrick if he wasnt such a dick, he wondered what it would be like to have a twin like fred and gorge, never mind best not to think about it, he probably wouldnt be the harry he was, the devil you know and all of that.

after they finally got ahold of them selves harry snorted.

"oh do show some control some of us have important things to do not play around in official meetings"

Severus snorted.

"i agree harry, potter can you keep your"

the man sneered.

"family under control"

james growled.

"some one did that on purpose!"

severus snorted again.

"the strongest wizard in the world is here and didnt see anything and you think someone did this to you, please keep your attention seeking to your own time"

the look harry got was clearly a praise which he took happily.

before a fight could break out Dumbledore spoke up.

"now now we have pressing issues to discuss"

harry noted that the old man didnt say anything to discourage the most powerful wizard comment.

"now i have received reports that Voldemort has gone quiet, locked in his office plotting, i dont like what this implies he is planning something big and we need to be alert, there could be a big attack any day, that is all today thank you for taking the time to come here"

harry met Fawkes at the door.

"hey boy could you drop me by  the school after i aperate somewhere?"

the bird trilled happily.

stepping outside the anti aperation wards harry went to his own house, he put fawkes on a pirch and ran to his celler, deep inside in a easy to miss corner behind a wine barrel he placed the door and smeared his blood onto it, after that he was up and away with fawkes to hogwarts.

"i just need to visit draco then could you drop me back?"

the phenox didnt seem to have a problem jumping around, he almost looked to be having fun, harry really hoped the man wasnt keeping the bird in his office all day every day.

draco was surprised when harry appeard in his room.

"harry what the fuck?!"

harry grinned like an idiot and strolled over.

"i have something for you to look after for me dont take it around anyone sided with voldi"

the blond rolled his eyes but nodded.

"this is a special key to a door now in the wine cellar, you need to prick your finger when in there and put your blood on the door so it will let you in even without the gem, keep it safe my love"

he stroked the blonds cheek looking into his eyes, they brushed lips but harry didnt have time for anything else.

"i must go i am trusting you with a fortune, also if you could look for a document that could help me take the black lordship  apparently Sirius was disowned"

the blond gaped at him in a toootaly Malfoy fashion with another kiss harry was out of the school and into his cot, it seems things may get a move on and harry needed to be free of this obligation, which means ending the war himself.
