Chapter 6: The Golden Trio

-6:00 AM-

I get up from my bed, dressing up with one of my muggle suits remodelled to look more like something a wizard would wear: a black shirt with a dark red jacket and pants and black shoes. The jacket looks more like a wizard robe from the Hogwarts standar uniform but it is not that long and more comfy. Overall the feeling is that of an elegant yet confident wizard in a tidy and beautiful outfit. 'Lucifer would absolutely love this' i think to myself. I call Dobby and without waking up my parents i apparate to Gringott. (yes it is open even at this hour which baffled me the first time i heard of it)

The inside of the bank is huge exactly like shown in the movies i quickly go to the designated area and find a goblin named Argott ''Hello again mr. Argott this time i got the parchment from my father, we can proceed with the investment we planned last week''

Needless to say, im not an idiot (kinda)... Since i have knowledge of the companies who will make it big why not investing early, i quickly wanted to invest my 6000 galleons in the stock market. Mind you not in stocks, not in collective funds! Each end of the year, infact, if you invest in stocks you get what in economy is called ''dividend'', which is in simpler words a cut of the profit depending how much stocks you own. I wanted to own more stocks possible in a single place instead of dividing them in multiple places and i already had my top 3 ready: apple, microsoft,sony.... I mean kind of clichè but.... who would refuse money just to be original....

Alas my excitement was cut short when i found out that Gringotts doesn't deal with wizards less than 17 years old.... damn fanfics you lied to me!

I found out though that all i needed was a parcment from my father allowing me to use that money for investing, after a whole week of begging him to trust his own son i finally got him to agree and here i am as smug as ever with my accomplishment. I would love to see you trying to convince Lucius to let you use his money..... The guy becomes scary...

''Mr. Raon, it is good to see you again, i was wondering if you would ever come back'' said Argott with is usual teeth-showing business-like horrific smile.

''My if i knew that you didnt want to see me that badly i wouldn't have come here to offer 10% of commission instead of the usual 5% in hopes of establishing a long term relationship with the bank..... but since you are not willing mr. Argott....'' i say with my polite smile faking abit of sadness... I know it may seem alot, but you can count it as an investment, these goblins never lost a was aganist wizards and they hold the majority of the monetary power; having a good reletioship with them will only be beneficial.

I can see his face despairing a little before realizing my plot '' AHAHAHA, what an interesting little wizard, of course Gringott's is always willing to work with bright and generous young minds. You can sign here and here and everything will be processed smoothly'' he says grinning from ear to ear while spawning two parchments i read carefully

''mmh, so the bank will also ask for a closing fee?'' i ask him while skimming through the papers

''yes but you shouldn't have to worry about it, since it is only for those without a Gringott's vault or for those that have had one for less than three year. However since these funds are connected to the Malfoy vault you wont need to pay it'' he says a bit sad he wont get the closing fee

''i see, well then if thats all i will be leaving, thx for your time Mr. Argott''

''it is always a pleasure working with the Malfoy family'' he says not hiding his grin

'cheeky little goblin, it is a pleasure working with the Malfoys but not me particularly? AH when you wil see the result of these investment you will want to fly to China and cough up blood for the embarassment disrespecting me' i think with a frown 'am i getting the young master syndrome?'

-10:00 AM-

We are ready to go to Hogwarts, me and Draco are walking side by side inside Cross station with our parents on the far left and right unimpressed of all the muggles walking so close to them.

We found the wall that connects this station to the Hogwarts Express station and slowly walk through it with absolute confidence. Rule number one of distiguished families;: everything you do must be carried out with extreme confidence and nonchallance, except when someone insults you, your beliefs of your bloodline. You dont understand how many times i had to hear all that bs.....

We slowly walk on the platform when we see the other families, Draco immediately goes to Crabbe and Goyle and tries to impress Alice, that was standing coldly with her parents, with his fake feats he allegedly did this summer. I on the other hand went straight to Theo, Daphne, and Pansy.

At that moment before even being able to say to them i saw Alice cold gaze on me, she was no longer the smug little girl she was before but only one word could completely describe what i was seeing in that moment: beautiful. Without, of course, letting her notice that i thought so i lock her eyes with mine, none of two dared to look away as if doing so would mean losing some kind of war. After some seconds that felt like minutes i relaxed my face and gave her the warmest smile i could muster as if i was seeing someone i was happy to meet again after all that time. She is visibly surprised and loses focus for a bit declaring my undisputed victory. I give her a smirk to seal the deal and ignoring her deathly glare i turn to my friends while thinking 'you are at least 10 years to early to win aganist me in a stare-off'

''hey guys how did you pass your summer? We havent seen each for a long time now" i asked

''better than yours" answers jokingly theo " instead of eating books like a certain bookworm i actually went to the beach to have fun, if you keep it like that you will be sorted in ravenclaw...''

''ahahah well i think that i can fit well in all four houses: hard working anough for hufflepuff, brave enough for griffindor, studious enough for ravenclaw, however slitheryn is the one that hits home the most, after all i think im very good looki- i mean... very ambitious and cunning'' i say giving myself a fake aura of self-importance like those fufufuing ojousamas from animes

they all immediately laugh their ass off before i continue with a smile '' what about you pansy?''

''oh i went with my parents to visit the wizarding community in France, they are all very open and nice we visited alot of places, next time we go i would like to take evryone here as well'' she says a bit blushing '' i found a very good restaurant we need to try'' she concludes in a low voice still blushing

'is this still the girl from canon? the one who liked to be an ass and was for a while Draco's fiancee? Well doesn't matter, maybe my influence played a part, after all we all have been exchanging letter between each other for a long time; in any case one trouble less' i think

I answer in extreme nonchalance '' sweet Pansy, sound like a plan to me'' to which both me, theo and Daphne nod making her smile a little in relief ''and you Daph anything fun?''

''Well.... not really.. as you guysknow my sister Astoria.... she has been showing signs of being infected by the curse of our ancestors.... so we didnt do much'' she says with a bit of sadness in her eyes

i try to say something but Theo is quicker '' it is ok Daph we will make sure to bring you somewhere fun next year'' then pansy doubles down a bit flustered '' we will find a way to cure her, our promise still stands you can count on us!'' hook line and sinker now it is me that speaks '' yup, they are right, after all we are friends''

i can see her show a rare smile and says '' thank you guys, you are the best!''

theo scoffs a bit at that and says '' wasn't that like... obvious?'' making us all laugh merrily even though i feel like im missing something important.... i feel like someone has been ignored by me and threatens to take my life... meh.... i just might need some sleep

We are moving to our compartment while i say to everyone '' you guys, go on without me i will be back in a bit there is something i need to do''

''sure man, laters'' says theo

'i will change you guys... i will let you see the lies our families have been trying to brainwash us with... you are all such good people, it would really be a waste to lose yall over nosense' i think while spotting the compartment Harry and Ron are in i dont go in immediately but i wit close by till the trio meets, i need to try and not change their meeting.... this world is not the same i know, the world wont necessary bend events to follow the guideline....

This is also the reason why i haven't been trying to make and sell objects or knowledge, if i start selling powerfull tools or new magical theories it is very well possible that those same things will be used to strenghten the Uglymort side, making my future work esponentially more difficult... Thing aren't as easy as novels make us believe..... i sigh

Finally i snap back from my toughts as i see a cute ball of hair and energy running towards the said compartment probably asking for a frog and sure enough:

''Have you guys seen a toad around?'' says Hermione to the two startled kids

''Did someone lose a frog?'' i intervene much to the surprise of everyone but mostly Harry that screams

''Raon! I missed you how have you been'' he jumps down from his seat and hugs me, while with right eye i can see Ronald recognise me and heavely frown at the scene

''Hey Harry how have you been! But before that did you need help miss...'' i say while slightly tilting my head as to invite her into telling her name

''Hermione, Hermione Granger'' she says with her usual arrogance, i know however that her arrogance only comes off because she doesnt really know hoe to interact with people; she is bright, too brigh for her peers but she thinks that by showing her knowledge people would value her and would line up to be her friends.... she will slowly realize that she can't always act like she has a stick in her ass because very few people like self important nobodies especially if they are muggleborn, she will also realize that by showing her knowledge she will only make people jealous killing off any possibility of making friends.... ''indeed a guy called Neville has lost his frog and im trying to help him, did you see one? she continues

''is Neville the guy running over here? I havent seen the frog but i can help...'' i wait for neville to come here and when he is finally in range for conversation i say ''he neville i heard you lost your frog if you tell me her name i can help you'' i say with a reassuring smile

he widens his eyes in surprise ''re-really? you will?'' he asks hopefully ''his name is T-trevor''

I take out my wand and chant '' Accio Trevor''

after a while of silence we can hear a quiet whistle and a frog lands safely in my palm to the amazement of everyone present

''here Neville, and try not to lose it again be extra careful about windows'' i say with my now official smile-tm

''WOW thanks a lot, you are a good wizard'' says a half-dazed Neville, while erecting a monument in my honour in his head, making me chuckle a bit ' kids getting over excited after a simple magic'

''That is a spell we learn later in the fourth year, how did you do it'' asks a now impressed Hermione in a commanding tone

''WOW'' exclaims Harry in surprise while Ron obviously had to ruin the moment

''What are you trying to pull Malfoy, since when did your family open a charity'' he asks while looking at me in disgust as if looking at a roach

before i could say anything Harry surprised even me ''Raon is a good person! He helped me alot in Diagon Alley, he is nothing like his family, he explained it to me already, Ron you shouldn't junge people by their surname'' im so proud of you harry , they grow up so fast... i think in my mind while i cry of joy exaggeratedly in my mind

''im sorry i helped a future classmate Ronald, next time i will leave it to you and your spells that dont work'' i say while looking at his cup reminding harry and hermione of his failed attempt at casting a spell earlier making them chuckle a bit

Ron glares daggers at me but cant retort so he can only shut up at the situation.

''why dont you sit down with us, you too Hermione, i would like to know more about the spell you used Raon'' says Harry

hermione smelling knowledge like a truffle dog promptly answers '' sure! im also curious!''

''What about you Neville?'' i ask

In a quivering voice he answers ''i-i already have a spot, but th-thanks for asking'' before sprinting off with trevor at the speed of light

Time passes as a grumpy but curious Ron watches us while we talk about magic and stuff, Harry tries to talk to him and tries to include him in the convo from time to time showing what a great person he is. I let Hermione use reparo on Harry's glasses smiling while i see her proud smile enjoying her moment of glory; i give her a compliment making her unexpectedly blush a little trying to regain her composure... In the end i earned a glare from her for whatever reason, making me laugh seriously for a long time since every time i laugh she would glare even more not realizing she didn't look scary at all but just extremely cute.

After a while i excuse my self saying that i will need to change robes and talk to my friends that are probably missing me right now.

After a while the train stops and we finally arrive at Hogwarts....
