Dad and aunt Sev spoke to Sirius and Remus about what occurred the day Dumbledore invaded our home, killed mother and kidnapped myself. The two dark wizards promptly deciding to change their side in the war secretly and to act as spies like Severus.
"The biggest problem to us being spies is the children, they will need to learn occlumency if we don't want Dumbledore ousting us in minuets." Sirius said worriedly.
"Worry not new friend we still have a few years to train them before they must appear in public." Dad placated.
"What about Harry? Sorry Alexius? Dumbledore will know the truth the moment he sees him."
"I'll apply a glamour on him, everyone will be none the wiser." Dad decided.
"Then the plan will still fall through! Dumbledore checks on Harry frequently!" Remus said in distress.
"No he doesn't." I spoke up, everyone turned to me with confused expressions.
"He never came to check on me after I went to the Dursleys. If we live in the muggle world, I doubt he will go out of his way to see me, or the twins." Everyone looked contemplative.
"I have a manor in France we can claim to live in. It's under fidelius and the headmaster doesn't know where it is." Sirius claimed.
"How are you going to stop him from poking his crooked nose into the location?" Aunt Sev said.
"I'll claim a relative of mine is the secret keeper so I can't convey the location." Everyone nodded their heads at the declaration.

Looking up I noticed the twins were sneaking up behind Aunt Sev, Draco saw, but decided not to warn his carrier when seeing the plain as day amusement on my face. Not a moment later Aunt Sev had a packet of grey glitter emptied into his head. The twins to my endless amusement managed to do this without alerting aunt Sev or the other adults.

With the adults conversation over we headed to Gringotts, it didn't take long for the dour faced professor to notice Tom's amused expression, although the rest of us managed to keep a straight face. Aunt Sev covered his glittery hair with his hood muttering about 'accidental' potion accidents with the devil twins nearby. My body was still weak from the glamour being forcefully removed so dad was carrying me piggy back style. This time I looked at the construct called Gringotts more closely and noticed the poem engraved on the door.

Enter, stranger, but take heed
Of what awaits the sin of greed
For those who take, but do not earn
Must pay most dearly in their turn

'Ah... Indeed that was a most unpleasant punishment, the burn took several weeks to heal!'

So if you seek beneath our floors
A treasure that was never yours

'It may not have been mine, but it wasn't really Bellatrix's either!'

Thief, you have been warned, beware
Of finding more than treasure there.

'There was only treasure there, it just multiplied, unless they're talking about the dragon? Poor thing.'

I was snapped out of my train of thought as we entered the building. Our group attracted many gazes, but all of which were ignored by the adults, Draco and myself, the twins however looked mighty spooked and uneasy.
'Hehe, they'll get used to it in a few years.' I though vindictively, 'It's not proper or pranksters to have stage fright.'

We finally finished at Gringotts and returned to the riddle manor, I was led to my bedroom which was furnished for someone my age as my father continuously updated the furniture when ever Draco needed more. Finally in the presence of a mirror I observed it to see what my inheritance gave me, considering that I never did find out in the future (past?).

My hair had grown to mid thigh in curly rings reminiscent of Sirius's with Blood red eyes. My facial structure had rearranged to the point I was almost unrecognisable, my nose was smaller and not as long, my lips were fuller and darker in shade. My eyelashes where thicker and darker making it appear as if I was wear mascara. My skin was softer and smoother with a paler tone which contrasted greatly with my lips, eyes and hair. My height remained the same, though it should have rose due to me being malnourished, so Harry Potter is taller than Alexius Riddle.
