Phineas wandered a few frames until he found Remus in an old classroom with a pacing Sirius

"Seems he's not his annoying self that I knew him from growing up in House Black" said the ex Headmaster

"Sir what do you mean?" asked Remus as he looked at the frame the man was now in it was a blank frame but he dominated it

"I was Head of the Black family all those years ago, my great great grandson here isn't who he was even if he did spend 12 years in Azkaban for nothing, he was framed and that old coot knows it! he never even tried to help him the Lord of the Most Ancient House of Black didn't even get the help from someone he thought as a friend

Thrown into a place he should never been in for Merlin's sake and because of that the House of Black is falling apart at the seams, Kreature who is meant to serve us has let us down since Wulburga who came from a branch line married the main line she thought she had all the damn forsaken power to rule over the main line

She is what ruined the line, my great granddaughter ruined the House of Black and didn't care what she was doing to her own son's and my great grandson he was weak and never helped no wonder his very own son his heir would run away!" ranted Phineas to the werewolf in front of him Sirius hadn't heard a thing for some reason

"I don't understand why haven't you spoken out until now?" asked Remus to the 'man'

"Why should I when no one wanted to listen to be before I know I wasn't the best father/uncle/grandfather and whatnot but I do care for my family and the boy you claim as Harry James Potter is no longer who you think he is, the castle can tell who and what he is...."

"He's my godson!!"

"And again he's snapped out of it again takes a bit the spell on him only last 15 minutes after he's left that blasted office, grandson listen to me for once in your bloody life!"

Sirius looked to where the voice came from and was shocked to see a man that resembled his father but had the sternness of his mother which made him pale

"Sir..."

"Oh shut it Sirius Orion you know who I am I have tried to help you since childhood but you never bloody listened and then you ran away from everything that was being taught to you, your father should of helped but he had no back bone to stand up to your mother, my great grandchildren were bloody well idiots if you ask me" sighed Phineas to them

"Grandfather Phineas?" Sirius looked at his twice over grandfather

"The very same grandson I would make sure that you get cleansed in the very near future and set very thing straight that you didn't do what you were framed to do the Imperio that was placed on you was very strong and it was placed on you at House Black so someone had come and done it call Kreature"

"The blasted thing only ever listened to mother well more Regulus than anything he has never listened to me even when I was a child"

"Call him Sirius Orion Black III!"

Sirius was scared of the portrait only his father ever called his fall name like that and that was after he had misbehaved one to many times

"Kreature..." he waited and the elf appeared

"Nasty Master call Kreature" he looked around and when he saw Phineas he bowed Sirius had never seen the elf behave like this before

"Kreature I want you to check everything in the house 14 years ago someone placed charms and spells on the house to make Sirius obey and I don't think it was Wulburga can you find out who magical signature it belongs to and how old it is Orion died in 1979 and Wulburga 1985 but I don't think she would of"

"Master Phineas Kreature will do" and he disappeared

"How in Merlin did you get him to do that?! I've been trying all my childhood and since last year to have him obey me"

"Kreature is an elf that has belonged to the House of Black since he was born he was back in my grandfather Licorus' line the rest your lovely mother killed off he is all that is left of the Black Family Elves" he sighed

"Kreature is that old?!" said Remus

"Yes he is and he was such a lovely elf when he was young but turned into what you see after many years of serving and then witnessing what Wulburga did to his own family, I had to watch from my own portrait like the rest of us she swore him to serve her and Regulus and not to care about anyone else your father tried to help but he was a lost cause on all of this he never stood up to her I wish now I spoke up when your grandfather Arcturus said about the marriage but I never thought she would be this bad" he sighed

"Father wasn't weak! mother was a bitch simple all she cared about of what House Black stood for and Regulus no one else I had to get away from that"

"I'm glad you did grandson and to another House of Black if you want to know"

"What do you mean James' family weren't a member of the family"

"Did you forget your history lessons on the family? Dorea Black was my granddaughter from my third son Cygnus and Violetta Bulstrode your mother's aunt... she married a Charlus Potter, who had a brother who had. son called Henry, who had a son called Fleamont who had a son called...."

"James!"

"Bingo, Harry is your godson as well as a member of the Black family but his mother is just who he claims to be the castle could feel her she tried to tell her but the damn old coot stopped Her..."

"Who Her?" asked Remus

Phineas laughed as the walls shook slightly, this made the two men jump

"The castle?!" stammered Remus

"Yes she every in tune with the Headmasters and Headmistress' and funny enough creatures and She knew about Lilly Evans or should we say Lixiss Heikrana the missing daughter of Kelvhan and Alyndra Heikrana High Elves of the Healing Court in the Elven Realm her looks may of changed but no one could change her magic

She was always strong if she was classed as a Muggleborn her magic laied in Potions and Charms something that the Elves are famous for I might add her magic sung to the castle and she sung back I just wish we could of spoken"

"So Harry isn't lying then saying who his mother was?" Sirius was shocked he had thought his godson was lying about all of it

"They can't lie or they can they just chose not to lie and the way the boy speaks he is indeed Kelvhan's grandchild but his hair is his father's but the eyes.... the eyes are the famous emerald of the family...." Phineas looked like he was remembering something from long ago

"Sir how do you know of all this?" asked Remus

"I may of been born in 1847 and lived until 1925 only a tender age of 78 mind you but I did learn a thing or two in my day and I met Kelvhan on day when I was but a young adult he had to be about 10 in human years but in Elven years he would of been 1000 they age every 100 years to our 1

He was playing in the Black Manor garden when I came home after work one day and I saw him dance it was amazing it was then he noticed me and looked he started his name before disappearing after that I did my research not much was found but he did visit twice more and gave me some information about them and then he left"

"So Harry was telling the truth? he's an Elf?" said Sirius

"Yes grandson I would like you to go to Gringotts and get cleansed you have spells and potions in you that I want gone no son of the House of Black will have them placed on you" glared Phineas to him

"Yes grandfather" just then Kreature popped back in

"Nasty Master, Crazy Man cast the spell.... Crazy Man is Headmaster!"

"Just as I thought Albus did it" said Phineas

.........
I might of got the family tree wrong on this but after a lot of research it's what I could come up with we know Dorea married Charlus and had a son but nothing more on him and James' parents are Fleamont and Euphemia and hen it gets a little harder from there
