Rebuild.
The Second Blood War was over and the British Wizarding World was in tatters, Hogwarts lay in ruin, Diagon Alley was almost completley empty and many other wizarding areas of Britain was on verge of collapse. The Light side had won, but at what cost? There was practically nothing left for them to live in. So Harry Potter saviour of the Wizarding World, Ginny Weasley, Hermione Granger, Luna Lovegood and Draco Malfoy were grouped together to rebuild the Wooden Bridge at the rear of Hogwarts.
Draco had lost his pureblood supremacy belief round about the time Hermione and Harry had escaped Malfoy Manor, seeing Hermione's bravery when face to face with his lunatic aunt Bellatrix had made him realise that Mudbloods were not quite as low class as he believed. After Harry had saved him from the Room Of Requirement he had fought on the light side and defended Hogwarts almost to the point of death. Now he had publicly apologised to Hermione and Harry in full view of the Great Hall and the repairers of Hogwarts. It had also been helped by his fondness for a certain Irish Gryffindor
However conversation between the Five was still somewhat stilted and disjointed, that is until Luna frustrated with trying to rebuild the walkway snapped.
"God damn it! I am so sick of trying to do this! We might as well give up and rebuild the entire Magical World from scratch!" She fumed. Ginny and Harry were speechless, however Hermione and Draco began to wonder at the last statement. About ten minutes after Luna had had her outburst Draco commented on it.
"That is actually not a bad idea, care to expand on it Luna?" Hermione then added her ten Knuts
"Luna thats a brilliant idea, we could modernise the Wizarding world and make it fair and equal for all blood statuses if not all sentient beings! We could make Britain a beacon for all of the Magical World!" Hermione's face was alight with enthusiasm and hope, Harry was delighted to see such the expression again, he hadnt seen it since Nagini had got Ron who had died defending Hermione.
"Sorry to break it to you all, but if you do then I won't be joining you. I want to be a teacher here at Hogwarts, this place is my home and has been since I was eleven. I can't leave it now." Harry mentioned with a sad but happy smile.
"Harry Potter 'The Boy Who Lived' a simple school teacher! that would be a sight to behold indeed. No offense of course, but can you imagine the Wizarding World's reaction? It would be priceless" Draco exclaimed a look of humour on his face. "I for one would like to see the Traditions and Holidays of the Magical World kept safe and not trampled out in the name of progress."
"Mr Malfoy! What on earth are you yelling about?" Minerva Mcgonagall had arrived at the bridge intending to tell the five that lunch was being served.
"Oh Profesor, I'm sorry I didn't see you there. We were just discussing something, I do apoligise." Draco mutttered with a blush gracing his face.
"At any rate Mr Malfoy dinner is served, so will the five of you please accompany me to the great hall and continue your discussion there?" The five got up and followed McGonagall to the Great Hall and disccused the idea over dinner. they vowed that the next day they would begin Operation Rebuild and make the British Magical World the best on the Globe.
Author's Note: This is an idea that has been running around in my head for a while, I actually like the idea that after the war, Harry and Co make the world better for everyone not just muggleborns or else what was the point in fighting? Anyway so I know whether or not to continue on this random train of thought, please review and tell me what you think, what I need to improve on and what you would like to happen.
Diolch yn fawr iawn.
