Disclamer: HP not mine!
Teddy: the war memorial
It had been a year since the battle of Hogwarts, and a memorial was being held there. The ceremony began with a speech form the minister, he talked about what an important day it was and how the ministry had managed to rebuild itself and of their achievements over the last year and of the work they plan to do with muggle-born and other things planed for the year. As he explained the finer points of the work they were doing Ginny looked around the audience, she was sitting next to Harry, who was comforting and massaging little one year old Teddy, next to him sat Hermione, listening to every word Kingsley said, next to her were Ron, Neville and Luna.
Behind us sat Andromera, it seams as if she's holding back tears, she's looking at her grandson and Harry but you can tell that's she is still listening to the speech. Next to her are my parents, they look board but are listening at least. Percy and his girlfriend are sitting next to them. At the other side of the aisle to my left sat Minerva McGonagall and the heads of house all listening attentively. Behind them were Bill and Fleur, and some ministry officials all looking really bored. Then as it seamed you just couldn't handle the speech any longer he finished, called Harry up by some crazy title and sat down.
Harry took a moment to respond almost everyone was looking at him but it wasn't until Hermione said "He meant you, Harry" that he turned form Teddy and looked at the platform were the minister had spoken. He then slowly lifted Teddy cradled him a bit and turned to give him to his grandmother, I was never sure if it was planed or if Harry was simply lost in thought and didn't realize everyone was gawking at him. Then, he walked onto the platform and began to speak.
"This date will be remembered throughout history for those who fought for better world, let us have a minute of silence for all those who can't join us tonight. " After the time was up he continued "Let us remember those who are no longer with us, so they shall not truly die. We must let them rejoice this day with and through us, the day when Voldemort was finally defeated. The blood prejudice lingers with some and now we must continue the work of the fallen so that the next generation can live in a better world"- and as if it were his cue Teddy began crying, Harry stopped talking and looked at Andromera.
She shook her head twice, meaning that the moon hadn't risen yet but she couldn't calm him down. He nodded at her. Then looked at Hermione and me, he motioned for one of us to take the baby to him. Hermione said softly "you're his girlfriend". So much to my distaste I turned around in my seat and took the crying baby up to Harry. All eyes followed me as I walked up to the platform; Harry took the little boy and rocked him slowly till he quieted down. He then began the same massage pattern as before. As soon as Teddy was settled he began speaking again. " They should live in a world with out fear or hatred were they can be children and grow in peace." with that he finished and sat down all the while massaging Teddy with a small smile on his face.
After Harry sat down candles were lit all around the stage and McGonagall stood to speak she said "Thank you Harry, Hogwarts takes on that mission to teach its students the importance of tolerance and understanding." She nodded at Harry and continued. "Now everyone please be welcomed into the castle for an early diner and some music, let us enjoy our evening together" with a flick of her wand a path to the castle was illuminated. She turned away and started walking toward the castle.
Harry gave a sleepy Teddy to Andromera and speeded up to walk by her side talking quickly. Behind them Kingsley and the rest of the attendants started walking toward the castle. Ginny walked with Hermione, Ron and Neville. Luna was lost in the crowed as were the rest of the Weasley's each walking in pairs toward the castle. Andromera was walking in the thickest bit of the crowed separated form the rest of her group when it happened.
As all the attendants of the days ceremony walked up to the castle the moon rose it was hard to notice at first, but soon all could see the full moon shining in the sky. Though none missed the cry of pain and despair that came just as the moon past the horizon. There were screams and panic rose in the path to the castle. Most came from the centre of the largest crowd, and subsequently there was a loud crack followed by another. The last one came form the headmistress and all went silent she the addressed them all. "The situation is now under control, if you would continue calmly into the great hall dinner is served." That seamed to calm many people down but the members of DA and the Order were soon gathered around the headmistress for information.
A/N: There is a second part to this, but should I continue the story?
