Lavender and Susan arrived at Gringotts at 12 noon on the dot. Their purpose there was to withdraw money from their respective accounts.

"Greetings. I am Ripsail,Bones vault manager. This is Duganthe,who does the same for the Brown vaults. Follow us"

The two girls followed the goblins down a flight of surprisingly wide stairs,past other,unlit vaults. Presently they came to a cart,the controls of which Duganthe manned. He steered the cart to the base of a great vault.

"This is the Bones vault"

Susan looked at the vault. It contained many thousands of packed Galleons,and also.....

"What is a sword doing in my family's vault?"

"It is the Sword of Hufflepuff. Helga Hufflepuff herself put Bripwn runes of protection on the sword. It has Crucio and Avada Kedavra 'faces' and a crossguard with embosséd Palatinate flowers. You obviously won't need it. Your noble ancestor Sylvanus Bones placed it in the vault in 1878."

They moved on to the Brown vaults. There weren't any surprises in there. Afterwards,they withdrew their money and apparated to Hogsmeade.
