Dahlia POV

        I awoke the next day and got dressed in a random black dress and made my way down to the dining room. Luna had already been sitting there in a deep green dress, very similar to Gaea's and had made a braid around her head while the rest fell down in waves. "Morning sister," she spoke, between her bites of fruit. "Morning sister", I responded and started to eat my own breakfast. We heard tapping from the kitchen so we both got up and Luna let the owl when while I stared in amazement at the kitchen. An elf had appeared in the kitchen, "Hi Mistress Dahlia and Mistress Luna, I is Cannibal, I is the chef, was there a problem with you're meal?" 

        I kneeled down, "Hi Cannibal, would you mind, I don't want to offend you, if I could make food in the kitchen, I do like to cook but I don't want to take that from you," I spoke softly. He beamed, "Yes miss, Cannibal doesn't mind".

        "Great, how about every other day, I make supper and if I need assistance, you will be the first I call," he nodded frantically, ears flapping in the process before disappearing. I looked back at Luna who held up what the owl had. "I guess we have places to go now," she concluded.

Time Skip

        We made it into Diagon Alley to see a lot of people doing their last minute shopping. I grabbed Luna's hand so we didn't get separated and made our way to Gringotts. We tilted our heads forward as a silent sign of respect to the guards which even now they still didn't get by the looks on their faces. "Hello, my sister and I have an appointment with King Ragnok about our vaults and to do inheritance tests," I greeted in a polite tone. Again, the goblin seemed surprised by our respect, "Name?" he asked.

         "Dahlia and Luna Peverell," his responding look of wide eyes a jaw almost dropping along with nearby goblins who we saw had also had the OMG look. "Oh yes, I'm sorry Mistresses, I will let him know," the teller said quietly that only Luna and I, along with the other goblins could hear. He soon came back out to direct us to the office, "May your gold over flow," the poor goblin was to shocked to respond. We greeted the King who held out two pieces of parchment, "Let's start with inheritance tests," he began and we pricked our fingers. Mine read:

        Satisfied after looking at all my vaults and the results of my test, I took my ladyship rings. The Peverell Ring had a black band with and an emerald to match my eyes with the Hallows engraved in the stone. The Ravenclaw Ring had a silver band with a sapphire jewel. I put them on my right hand signifying I'm the head of the house. Luna and I had learned that to signify that you are the Head of the house you have to wear the ring on your right hand and if you are the secondary head or a heir, the ring is worn on the left. So eventually the Lady Black ring will be worn on my left hand instead of the right. We then took a look at Luna's results. Hers said:

        Luna took her Hufflepuff ring that was a black ring with a gold stone. And the Ravenclaw Heir ring (we had a plan about the heir rings) which had a skinnier silver band with small blue gems embedded in it. 

        We left Gringotts, almost running into a family, realizing it's the Black's. "Oh, our apologies, we didn't see you," I quickly said while checking on Luna who crashed behind me. "That's alright, it was just an accident, may I ask who you two are, you don't seem familiar," Lord Black asked. "I am Lady Dahlia Peverell-Ravenclaw of the Most Ancient and Most Noble Houses of Peverell and Ravenclaw," I introduced. There eyes widened when I finished and I noticed the boy with them who looked an awful lot like Sirius staring at me as if I was angel while while his sister was trying to hide her smirk at his face, "And I'm Lady Luna Peverell-Hufflepuff of the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Hufflepuff and Secondary Heir Apparent for the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Peverell", Luna introduced.

        "Peverell? They haven't been around in a while and I mean no offense Lady Hufflepuff but you don't look like a Peverell, and how are you both Ladies at such a young age?" Lady Black practically rambled off her questions.

        "I take no offense, I was actually blood adopted into the family but retained most of my normal features. There are more Peverells, they are descendants that do not carry the name, we are the last two. We had been homeschooled and  started at the same time even though we would have been in different years. Unfortunately, our parents past away from dragon pox so we will be starting Hogwarts this year," Luna explained.

        "Oh, I'm sorry for your loss. Do you need help around?" Lady Black asked.

        "Oh, no thank you, we already had most of our supplies at home but thank you for the offer," I replied. We then parted ways as I gave a small smile to a still staring Orion who blushed and turned around to meet his sister's now showing smirk, giving her a glare.

        We returned home to find Thanatos and Gaea waiting in the back. We all sat on the benches watching the herd of thestrals. We came to give you your familiars. The only odd thing about yours is that all Peverells are able to have there animagus as a seperate being too." Thanatos explained. "Your lines will all be able to change into the same animal such as the Blacks will all have the same kind of animal and so will the Malfoys. Luna," Gaea paused and pulled out a phoenix, "Oh Merlin, she's gorgeous," Luna gasped. Thanatos turned to me, "Now, the Blacks have the most diverse and I know you were talking about how there are different types of Grims," I nodded, "So to fit your inheritance you have a Grim known as the Skriker. This dog wanders in the woods warning travelers with her shriek like a banshee of an oncoming death," Out of the shadows came a large female dog with short hair and big ears, she had standout green eyes like me.  The dieties soon left and we finished getting ready to start Hogwarts tomorrow.

(A/N: If you're confused about the creature inheritances I'm trying to have the creatures be opposites in some way. Like Dahlia and Luna are Mistresses of Death and Life. A banshee gives a warning while a siren lures you in. A fae can heal you but a succubus will weaken you. If there was confusion I hope that cleared that up.)
