Scaring the Scary Goblins

"So where are we going to go?" Tyson said looking at the streets and shops not being able to find anything that would sell these wizards and witch stuff. Harry nodded as well, "Don't tell me that it's in some kind of other dimension cause that would be freaky and awesome at the same time."

"Well, sort of and also not." Hagrid nodded and pointed at a shop that Tyson and Harry just noticed. Leaky Cauldron, between a book store and a record store. But it was surprising that just like Tyson and Harry no one seemed not to notice it and were just walking past it as if it wasn't even there.

"This--" Harry pointed at the shop, wondering where this shop come from.

"Magic Harry." Hagrid said walking towards the shop as the twin followed, "More like a spell. It's unnoticeable until pointed."

They entered and Tyson's eyes lit up. Looking at the pub he remembered the days when he would spend time in places like these and the taste of beer ah-- he can't not until he's eighteen. People working inside looked at them and were happy to see Hagrid.

"Hey, Hagrid usual?" Bartender asked almost filling the glass with a bunch of beers and drinks.

Hagrid stopped and looked at the bottles in his hands licking his lips but shook his head, "Can't Tom, not right now! Hogwarts official business!" Hagrid said raising his brows and lips in an arc pointing at the twins who looked at everything closely.

The bartender and everyone looked at them in surprise wondering about their identities. Something suddenly clicked inside the bartender's mind--

"They-- they are-- they can't be! Right?" He said almost stumbling in excitement. Everything went silent enough that one could hear the boys breathing.

When suddenly exploded after Hagrid nodded, "They sure are!"

Everyone greeted them like crazy. It was almost as if they were pop stars without any bodyguards on the street. Harry was overwhelmed by all of this while Tyson surprisingly seemed used to this kind of situation.

They even met a professor of the defence against the dark arts at Hogwarts named Quirrell. For some reason, though Tyson felt like killing the guy right there and then, he knew this kind of feeling, it was almost as if he was talking to his general (two-faced pastard). On the other hand, Harry only felt a headache near his scare when looking at the back of Professor Quirrell's head.

"Let's get going yeh two!" Hagrid said seeing the boys get uncomfortable by all these cheers and greetings.

They went towards the back of the pub into a small courtyard, "Told yeh didn't I that yeh two are famous!"

Tyson smiled feeling strange, "But never told us it would be this much." Harry nodded in agreement still wondering what just happened.

Hagrid on the other hand tapped his umbrella on the brick wall counting the bricks, "Three up... two across..." He said, "alright boys stand back."

After he did that wall started to open as the bricks arranged themselves in an orderly manner creating a gate leading to an alley full of people and stores on both sides.

"Welcome to Diagon Alley," He said leading the boys.

"Hagrid, we have to buy all of this stuff but we don't have any money, do we?" Harry asked the same question Tyson had on his mind a while back.

"Of course, we don't but who said we can't get any?" Hagrid smiled and said, "Well, off to Gringotts!"

"What's Gringotts?" Tyson asked still looking around amazed by all this. No one told him that Merlin from the legends was once part of this world he was going to. He could not even have imagined something like this. He wonders, why these wizards never showed up during the World War. Did no one, not even a single wizard or witch have a family member dying during those times?

"Bank Tyson, a Bank" Hagrid said, "No can think of stealing from it so it's a very safe place after Hogwarts of course."

"Why would no one dare?" Tyson asked feeling challenged, for some reason, maybe because he was a world-class spy. "Do they have an army of wizards or something?"

"Terrible than that," Hagrid said shaking his head, "its vaults are deep down the underground and are protected by the dragons if one can somehow manage to walk out of the vaults (imagination probably) they will have to face thousands if not millions of goblins, Not very friendly I tell yeh."

"Dragons!" Tyson.

"Goblins!" Harry.

"Yeah!" Hagrid

Now, Tyson, had butterflies going wild in his guts for some reason hearing the word dragons.

"Is that--" Harry suddenly said looking at a small man guarding the gates of a huge white building.

"Yes, that's a goblin," Hagrid said.

As they arrived at the gates the little goblin bowed to them but jumped when it saw Tyson looking at him, almost tripping had Tyson not caught him.

"You okay? Mr Goblin?" Tyson said smiling.

The Goblin nodded its head nervously, "Yes, Thank you Sir Lord of the Beasts!" it said, "I shall pay more attention next time."

"Lord of the Beasts? You say?" Tyson looked at him weirdly not only him but Hagrid and Harry too.

Hagrid took the boys to the entrance where they saw a poem written on the gates, "Now that's really inviting me to do the unthinkable-- argh-- why do I feel so challenged by it." Tyson suddenly slapped himself.

"You okay Tyson? Why slap yer..er self?" Hagrid asked.

Tyson calmed his raging heart, "No, it's nothing. let's go inside."

"Wow," Harry awed.

"I know right." Tyson said looking at the grand view inside, "Better than many human houses I'd say."

There were hundreds of these goblins working and many gates and chambers.

"Are they usually this hardworking?" Tyson said.

"Yeah," Hagrid nodded, "Like I said yeh'd be mad ter try and rob it."

Same as before as soon as Tyson entered every goblin stopped and looked at him trembling (second coming of Professor Quirrell).

"We greet the Lord of the Beasts!" They said in unison.

"This--" Hagrid looked at them then at Tyson and then them again, "What's happening Tyson?"

"I don't know!" Tyson too wondered as they walked towards a certain goblin who did not stop and greet Tyson.

"It's really a wonder to see the Lord of the Beasts is a Potter as well." It said, "Guess miracles really do happen sometimes."

He stood up, "You have my greetings Lord of the Beasts." then looked at Harry, "This might be him, Potter who lived. Greetings!"

"Morning," Hagrid said putting his arm on the table crumbling some papers as the Goblin looked at him but did not say anything, "We, here for money from Mr Potters' safe."

"You do have the keys right?"

"Yeah here!" Hagrid started emptying his dimensional pockets, taking out all sorts of things and throwing them here and there, the goblin looked at him again as if trying to say something but did not, "Here!"

He took out a golden key, a little one and a letter--

"Hey, Mr goblin why do you call me, Lord of the Beasts?" Tyson suddenly asked the goblin leading them to their vaults underground. Tyson also saw a dragon and was really fascinated as his blood boiled.

"Because you are, Sir!" Goblin said, "You might have noticed it but every beast respects you even the dragons, phoenixes and unicorns not to mention the plants and earth."

Hagrid started to wonder what kind of being Tyson was. Harry told him how every animal that saw Tyson would bow and kiss (lick) him before going away.

"So--"

"Can't say much Sir, secret! And you can call me Griphook." Goblin said stopping the cart near a vault. "Give me the lamp please" he then touched the vault, "Key please!"

Griphook opened the vault from which come green smoke and soon boys saw mounds of gold, silver and bronze coins.

"All yours." Hagrid smiled at the boys looking at the money in amazement, "Gold ones are called Galleons equals seventeen silver Sickles and twenty-nine bronze Knuts to one Sickle."

"Alright, now to the vault number seven hundred and thirteen, Hogwarts," Hagrid said, "This time a bit slower please."

They soon arrived at vault number seven hundred and thirteen when Tyson suddenly felt a huge amount of rage.

"This what's inside? It feels very, I don't know I just don't like it." Tyson muttered as Griphook looked at him nodding for some reason.

"Sir, you better not look at the thing inside less you destroy our Gringotts."

Hagrid was amazed hearing a goblin say that someone could destroy the Gringotts and looked at Tyson (this should be mentioned to Dumbledore) he thought.

"Brother look that dragon is really bowing to you!" Harry pointed at the dragon who stood there seemingly waiting for Tyson.

"It seems that Sir is not aware of his lineage." Griphook said, "You need to awaken."

"What are you even talking about? What Lord of Beats, what awakening?" Tyson snapped annoyed by all these mysterious events.

Hagrid and Harry too were curious but Griphook said, "It's a secret sir." Hagrid and Harry had to hold Tyson from kicking the Goblin off the cart.

After coming out of Gringotts Hagrid left the boys at a shop selling robs and went off to the Leaky Cauldrons to get a drink.

"Hello?" A blond boy said to Harry and Tyson trying the robs, "Hogwarts?"

"No," Tyson said.

"Yes," Harry said.

"This--" Boy was startled by their answer.

"Sorry for that." Harry apologised, "Brother is angry right now."

The boy nodded realising. He looked around and wrinkled his face "did your parents not come?"

Harry looked sad (not much), "They are dead."

"Oh! sorry I didn't know" The boy said, "by the way, I am Draco Malfoy, you?"

"Good name." Tyson suddenly said, "I like it."

"Thanks!"

Tyson raised his brows and said, "Say that to your parents. Tyson, my name by the way and he's harry."

Realising that it was getting awkward the more they talked everyone kept quiet. Soon Hagrid arrived at the door waving at the boys. Draco also looked at him and was surprised.

"Isn't he that guard of something at Hogwarts? Why's he here!" he said.

"To pick us up of course." Tyson said, "Wanna come along?"

"No, I am with my parents." Draco pointed at the couple selecting the robs.

"Good for you. See you at Hogwarts then."

Tyson paid for the robs and left with Hagrid waiting for them.

"Weird!" Draco said looking at the vanishing Tyson.

Didn't know what to do witht the ending. It was getting really boring as I wrote so I did that. Anyway, I hope you enjoy.
