Harriet Potter was done with the Wizarding World. They had taken a girl who discovered she had magic, praised her, and then destroyed her. Now, she needed to leave and put this life behind her.
After checking in with the Goblins, who were eager to help her leave the country after witnessing what the Wizarding World had done to a hero who saved them, they knew she needed to live a happy life. Griphook informed her about the Potter properties and how to access money without returning to England. All Harri needed to do was choose a place. She found a town on the list she had never heard of and doubted anyone else knew. Perfect.
With the help of the Goblins and Kreacher, the Black family house-elf, she packed up all the books and everything she needed into a bottomless bag she would carry on the plane. She planned to fly to Virginia Airport and drive to Mystic Falls from there.
Flying on a plane was a new experience for Harri. The Dursleys never took her anywhere and preferred to leave her behind. That was fine for Harri, as when they were away, she had time to heal from their punishments and insults. Being on a plane was pretty cool for Harri, and in business class, she was able to enjoy the experience. Though nothing beats flying on her broom, which she packed into her bag.
Staring mindlessly out the window, Harri thought of recent events. She had overheard both Hermione and the Weasley family mainly the Molly, Ronald and surprisingly Hermione Granger talking about waiting for her to die so they could get the money. She told Fred and George, and they were furious at the family for doing that. Knowing she had some people who loved her for who she was, not what she represented, she told the good Weasleys that she would be in touch via owls and wouldn't have the Floo Network open unless for an emergency. They understood her decisions.
After the war, the Minister wanted her locked away, fearing she might become the next Dark Lord or, in this case, a Dark Lady. They were mindless fools who just sat behind desks, mocked her, and told everyone they were scared. For this very reason, Harri decided to run far away and never return. Those who supported her would be there to help her if she ever needed it. So here she was, leaving on a plane to an unknown life.
