Snape glanced at Potter and said "those questions, why did you ask me all of them?"

"I want you to do something first. Cast Legilimens on me."

He knew he looked surprised, the lessons weren't doing a thing. He cast Legilimens and was met with a stone wall. He tried it again and met with a stone wall "how?" The boy usually left in pain from the lessons.

"I have always been able to let you see what you wanted to see. I couldn't let dear old Dumbles know I knew the truth. That I have known the truth since about Yule of my first year, the troll, actually was what gave me the idea to search for the truth. Granger and Weasley really have no shields and I saw part of the truth with them and it went from there."

"I believe you are going to have to start at the beginning." Snape informed him. He was still trying to recover from the fact that Potter kept him out. Only the Dark Lord and Dumbledore had that ability.

He saw Potter pull something out of his pockets, it looked like a trunk. Potter placed it on the floor. He unshrunk it, opened it with a parseltongue password. He wondered briefly why the snake language sounded so erotic on Potter versus the Dark Lord. He watched Potter search for something. He got handed a bunch of parchment with the Gringotts seal on them, a few journals of some type and parchment that looked like it was from the Ministry. "I always carry it with me, I don't trust Ron not to say something to Dumbles." Potter paused, "start the Gringotts stuff first. It will answer those questions I asked you." Potter told him, returning to the book.

The first parchment was about over six feet in length and gave a full history of Potter's medical condition which was making him sick as he read it. The boy was abused almost as soon as he was placed with his muggle relatives. He noticed the damage to the nerves and tendons in his arms, no wonder the boy couldn't brew. "Why didn't you get it fixed?"

"How? The goblins couldn't do it without consent. Guess who has to give it?" Potter informed him. "That is from my first year, I haven't been back to their healers since, so just add the last few years on there as I am sure you noticed the missing Basilisk venom and Phoenix tears from the list."

"You killed a Basilisk?" Snape asked surprised.

"Guess the old goat didn't let that out. Yep, second year, saved Ginny Weasley (he noticed Potter spat that name out) from it, down in the Chamber of Secrets." He paused "feel bad about killing it too."

"Those rumors were true?" He was shocked.

"Yes, the thing is still down there, been waiting to harvest it and sell the parts but don't want Dumbles to get any ideas on taking that money."

"Taking money?" He asked, confused.

"Read my account statements." Potter told him.

He began to go through all the statements and noticed a number of withdrawals and transfers to Dumbledore, Molly, Ron and Ginny Weasley and Hermione Granger. "This is illegal, you can get all the money back."

"I can't until I am out of that school. How do you think he would take it if suddenly all the money was returned to me. He would ask what happened." Potter told him. "Besides I have been working with my account manager, I have several vaults that he doesn't know about and I have been building the gold in them and slowly transferring money out of the ones he does know about. He can't steal what he doesn't know about. Of course, the goblins are always willing to work with you for a price."

Snape was getting surprised "why can't they heal you for a price?" He was wondering what Potter would say.

"Madam Pomfrey would notice something was different and would tell Dumbledore, it wouldn't take him long to figure that I was healed by someone else. Who else can do healing? He would find out in less than a day." Potter informed him. He had to agree, Potter had thought it through and he had done that in his first year. "Madam Pomfrey has been stopped from helping me numerous times. He wanted me in that condition."
