Harry, Y/n, and Hagrid continue walking down Diagon Alley. Harry: "But, Hagrid, how am I to pay for all this? I haven't any money." Hagrid: "Well, there's your money, Harry. [he points to a tall, white, marble building, Gringotts Bank] Gringotts, the Wizard Bank. T'aint no place safer, 'cept perhaps Hogwarts." Inside the bank, they walk down the shiny aisle, passing tiny creatures working at their desks. Y/n walks up holding her key. Y/n: "Hi. I'm Y/n Maximoff, and I would like to make a withdrawal. Here's my key." Harry: "Uh, Hagrid, what exactly are these things?" Hagrid: "They're goblins, Harry. Clever as they come goblins, but not the most friendly of beasts. Best stick close to me. [Harry sticks to him. Hagrid clears his throat as they approach a counter with a goblin, wearing spectacles and a waistcoat, in it.] Mr. Harry Potter wishes to make a withdrawal, as well." The goblin looks up. Goblin: "And does Mr. Harry Potter have his key?" Hagrid: "Oh. Wait a minute. Got it here somewhere. Hah. There's the little devil. [Whispers] Oh, and there's something else as well. [Takes out a letter wrapped in a string.] Professor Dumbledore gave me this. [Hagrid hands the Goblin the letter.] It's about you-know-what in vault you-know-which." Goblin: "Very well." Later, they race down the depth caverns in a cartlike structure. The cart stops, and a goblin called Griphook, clambers out. Griphook: "Vault 616." Y/n hands him a lamp and her key. Griphook unlocks the vault which was almost filled to the brim with coins. Y/n: "Woah! I never knew they made so much." Y/n walks into her vault. Y/n: "Sorry Harry but this isn't your vault, it's mine." Y/n fills three bags, one with galleons, one with knuts, and one with sickles. Y/n: "That should be enough to get all my teachers and Harry gifts." They continue on the cart. Griphook: "Vault 687. Lamp, please. [Hagrid hands him the lamp and he walks to the vault] Key please." Hagrid hands him the key and Griphook unlocks the vault. The room is filled nearly top to bottom with coins. Harry is amazed. Hagrid: "Didn't think your mum and dad would leave you with nothing now, did ya?" Harry: "Why do we have different vaults?" Y/n: "Uhhh. Well, maybe mom and dad wanted us to have different vaults so that we both can support our own families?" They continue on through the cavern. Griphook: "Vault 713." Harry: "What's in there, Hagrid?" Hagrid: "Can't tell you, Harry. It's Hogwart's business. Very secret." Griphook: "Stand back." He slides his finger down the door. The vault opens to reveal a small white stone package. Hagrid enters the vault and scoops it up. The eerie light it was shining with disappears. Hagrid: "Best not mention this to anyone, Harry." Harry nods in agreement. Y/n: "I'll take it to my grave. 

~Ollivanders~

Outside back in Diagon Alley, Harry and Hagrid are walking through the street. Harry and Y/n have bought most of their equipment and are reading Harry's list. Harry: "I still need...a wand." Hagrid: "A wand? Well, you'll want Ollivanders. [he points to the store] No place better. Run along there, but wait. I just got one more thing I got to do. Won't be long." Harry goes into the store, quietly. He looks around. There are shelves of wands in boxes, but no people. Harry: [Softly] "Hello? Hello?" Then, a nose came from the back, and a man appears on a ladder and looks at Harry. The man is Ollivander and he smiles. Ollivander: "I wondered when I'd be seeing you, Mr. Potter. It seems only yesterday that your mother and father were in here buying their first wands. [Picks a wand] Ah. Here we are." Harry holds it but does nothing. Ollivander: "Well, give it a wave." Harry is hesitant, but waves. This causes most of the boxes to come flying out and crashing down. Harry jumps and hurriedly puts the wand back on the counter.  Ollivander: "Apparently not." He gets another wand from a box. Ollivander: "Perhaps this." Harry waves at a vase, which shatters, startling Harry. Ollivander: "No, no, definitely not! No matter..." Y/n: "You woke up and choose violence." Ollivander gets a wand from a box, but stops and becomes thoughtful. Ollivander: "I wonder." Ollivander hands the wand to Harry. No sooner after he touched it, Harry suddenly glows under it, blowing his hair up and several of the paperwork in the background. Ollivander looked a bit surprised and deep in thought. Ollivander: "Curious, very curious." Harry: "Sorry, but what's curious?" Ollivander is examining the wand he gave to Harry. Ollivander: "I remember every wand I've ever sold, Mr. Potter. It just so happens that the phoenix, whose tail feather resides in your wand gave one other feather, just one. It is curious that you should be destined for this wand when its brother gave you that scar." He points to the lightning bolt scar on Harry's forehead. Harry: "And...who owned that wand?" Ollivander: "Oh, we do not speak his name. The wand chooses the wizard, Mr. Potter. It's not always clear why, but I think it is clear that we can expect great things from you. After all, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named did great things...terrible, yes, but great." He hands Harry back his wand. Olivander: "Y/n Potter. How about-" Y/n: "Maybe a Manticore core."

~Time skip 5 wands later~

Y/n: "Oops?" Olivander: "Maybe this one." Y/n waves the wand and a calm aura around them. Olivander: "Interesting."

Y/n's Wand:

Y/n and Harry then hear a knock on the window. Hagrid: "Harry! Y/n! Harry! Happy birthday!" Hagrid has a snowy owl in a cage, which hoots, her name is Hedwig. In the other cage is a great-horned owl. Harry: [amazed] "Wow." Later back in the Leaky Cauldron, Hagrid, Y/n, and Harry are at a long table, eating soup. Everything is too quiet, Hagrid soon notices this. Hagrid: "You all right, Harry? You seem very quiet." Harry: "He killed my parents, didn't he? The one who gave me this. You know, Hagrid, I know you do." Hagrid: [sighs and pushes his bowl away] "First, and understand this, Harry, 'cause it's very important. Not all wizards are good. Some of them go bad. A few years ago, there was one wizard who went as bad as you can go. And his name was V-...his name was V-..." Harry: "Maybe if you wrote it down?" Hagrid: "No, I can't spell it. All right. [quietly] Voldemort." Harry: "Voldemort?" Hagrid: "Shh!!" Harry looks around to see if anyone has heard it. Hagrid: "It was dark times, Harry, dark times."

~Flashback~

On the night at Godric's Hollow, consisting of a cloaked man; walking towards a house, and breaking in with his wand, and proceeding to terrorize. Hagrid narrates: "Voldemort started to gather some followers, brought 'em over to the dark side. Anyone that stood up to him ended up dead. Your parents fought against him, but nobody lived once he decided to kill 'em." Harry's mother, Lily, screams in pain as she is killed by Voldemort's wand. Green flashes are seen from the windows outside the house. Y/n's eyes turn sapphire as she tries to blast Voldemort back but the energy blast was too weak. Then, Voldemort points his wand at an infant Harry Potter's head. Hagrid: "Nobody...not one. 'Cept you two."

~Present~

Harry: "Us? Voldemort tried to kill...us?" Hagrid: "Yes. That ain't no ordinary cut on your forehead, Harry. A mark like that only comes from being touched by a curse...and an evil curse at that." Harry: "What happened to...to You-Know-Who?" Hagrid: "Well, some say he died. Codswallop in my opinion. Nope, I reckon he's out there, still, too tired to carry on. But one thing's absolutely certain. Something about you stumped him that night. That's why you're famous. That's why everybody knows your name. You're the boy who lived." Y/n: "Only makes sense, if he's dead why would people call him you-know-who."
