DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN THE WIZARDING WORLD AND ITS CHARACTERS, THAT RIGHT GOES TO J.K. ROWLING!
Enjoy!
When Harry woke up it was to the blinding lights of what seemed to be the Hospital Wing at Hogwarts. But after remembering what had happened and taking a better look at his surroundings, apparently he didn't need his glasses anymore, he supposed that he was still inside of Gringotts and most likely in their hospital. He finally noticed that Silvertooth was standing near his bed and looking at him in awed surprise.
"What?" he snapped, the look reminding him to much one his fans would give him.
The Goblin chuckled. "Don't worry, young wizard, I'm just surprised by the amount of power and force of will you have. A normal wizard wouldn't be awake even seven hours after such a ritual, especially with the amount of bindings on you, and you are here, having a decent conversation with me not even five hours later. You are truly powerful." smirked Silvertooth, "Or have been subjected to lots of pain during long periods of time in your young life." he added, his eyes darkening.
Harry grimaced. "Both, I suppose, since that was worse than anything I ever felt."
"I'm still amazed at how long you withheld your screams or managed to stay conscious." commented Bloodclaw, opening the curtains around his bed and thus permitting him to see his best friend in a bed next to him. Bill and Charlie were standing next to her, talking in quiet voices.
"Charlie?" called Harry, confused by his presence in the Bank.
"Harry! You're already awake?!" cried Bill, he and his brother coming over while the Goblins left to give them some privacy.
"Yes, yes, I know, I'm amazing, now, why the hell is Charlie here?" inquired the green eyed wizard.
"I see that without the bounds on your personality you didn't keep your modesty." The wizard in question sniggered. "And I am here because the Gringotts asked me to come and check on their dragons and when someone told me you were here I couldn't not come and visit you." His face then took on a murderous expression. "I still can't believe they did that! You're like a brother to most of us and Hermione is such a kind and smart person!"
At the last part Harry waggled his eyebrows suggestively, causing the dragon-handler to blush slightly.
"And you've also become more perceptive." laughed Bill. "He's been pinning after her since fourth year, you know, but with everything going on, the rumours of you two dating then her dating Ronald, he almost gave up hope."
Harry was surprised. He hadn't noticed, but then, with everything, he was surprised he noticed anything at all. He grinned "Well, now that all those obstacles are out of the way, I give you my permission to court her!" He narrowed his eyes. "But beware, if you dare hurt my little big sister, getting burned by dragon fire will seem like nothing to what I will do to you."
Charlie shuddered. "Thank you. And I won't hurt her, I like her to much, and even if I can't find love with her I'll still like to be her friend. ...You know, you are really scary when you do that because your eyes start to glow and your Magic seems to swirl around you."
Harry sat back with a satisfied smile. "Good."
Just then a Goblin Healer arrived.
"Out! All of you! My patients need to rest! Go! Shoo!" she snapped.
And with that, despite their protests, Bill and Charlie were shucked out of the Hospital with a promise to come back as soon as possible.
Since Harry did indeed feel tired, he quickly ate the meal the Healer served him and, after drinking a Dreamless Sleep Potion, lay back down and promptly fell asleep.

The next time he woke was to the voices of Hermione and Charlie animatedly discussing if it was possible that some extinct breeds of dragons could still exist somewhere inaccessible for humans and if some breeds could be recreated by the magical crossing of some existing breeds. All that while Bill was snickering at how vehement they both defended their point of view and how impressed both seemed by the knowledge the other had.
"But what if they were located in a sort of protective bubble that creates a place with all they need inside of it! It could be located in a place that humans don't go, like on the top of one of the highest mountains or under the sea!" cried Charlie, trying to get his point across.
"You- Argh! I never said that it wasn't possible that there exist such a bubble! All I said was that it was impossible that it was anywhere above the earth! it would need to be deep under the ground so that the pressure of the earth around it can keep the bubble from deforming or exploding under the pressure of the magic trying to be free! Before making theories you need to research everything! You dunderhead!" exclaimed Hermione.
"You sound like Snape!" commented Harry with a smirk, which turned into giggles at Hermione's fake horrified look, making Bill and Charlie laugh too.
"Your finally awake!" mock gasped Hermione.
"I was also awake several hours ago!" pouted Harry. "Anyway, how are you feeling 'Mione?"
"Fine but hungry, you?" responded the young witch.
"Me too. Well, let us ask for something to eat, then!"
After having eaten and surviving the medical scan performed by the Goblin Healer, called Sharptongue, they finally returned to Silvertooth's office.
They quickly made an inventory of the properties they possessed and it was soon decided that they would go to Light Tower, a Peverell property that was located on a cliff, was very isolated, had very strong wards and had supposedly everything they would need for an isolation for as long as needed without driving them mad. Besides that there wasn't much information so they would need to visit in person to be sure, but for now, it was decided.
†††††
After thanking the Goblins, the trio left the bank, Bill staying behind since he still had work to do and would need to go home to his wife, Fleur, instead of coming with them to Light Tower, anyway.
They quickly went to a Portkey space and activated the one they were given by the Bank, reappearing in front of a rock with inscriptions on it that was positioned a few hundred feet away from the edge of the cliff.

A bit shorter than the previous chapters but I didn't want to cut it of right behind the description of the Light Tower and if I didn't it would have been overly long and thus made you wait longer. Sorry.
Hope you liked it anyway! Vote&Review please!
