Ministry Wizengamot morning session 10 am.
"But Minister the war was so hard on everyone. Our numbers are seriously depleted what are we supposed to do? If this continues there won't be a wizarding world left!" shouted Cattermole in rage and fright. The Wizengamot was up in arms at his outburst with everyone shouting in rage at the serious implications of his previous statement.
Kingsley sighed and raised his hands to silence everyone present. "If this situation is going to be rectified we're going to have to hear some home truths now and then we'll discuss my decision. The hard cold truth is that without half bloods and muggle born students relating to purebloods this world is as good as over. If purebloods refuse to marry and or consider dating either of these factions they will have only themselves to blame for the destruction of our world as it will be all there own fault that the wizarding world is extinct. Therefore I have created a marriage law whereby pureblood people from age seventeen to forty must marry someone of the choice of the sorting hat in Hogwarts or of the choice of the marriage sorting hat here in the ministry. I don't want to hear any complaints about it as there is no other way the situation can be logically rectified and magic backs me up here people. Those involved in this law will be expected to marry six months from finding out about their spouses and must have one child in a four year period. To ease people into their marriages the Ministry will be paying for them and using specific magic will ensure that no children are born to people still in school."
People in the Wizengamot were either crying or silently stunned. When a show of hands reluctantly agreed to pass the law he left to floo over to the school. Unfortunately with the condition the wizarding populace was in now there was simply no time to wait as people and those in their eighth year congregated in the great hall waiting for a shock announcement. No one knew what it was about but they were shocked by the Ministers appearance. What was he doing there.
"SILENCE! Now everyone Minister Shacklebolt has a shock announcement to make but it is one that will and I repeat will save the Wizarding world from extinction. Please welcome the Minister for Magic!"
"Thank you Minerva now please get the stool and the sorting hat and see me back here when you have retrieved the items. I am placing everyone here under a silencing charm as it is imperative that everyone listens to what I have to say without interfering until I'm done as you will not understand until I'm done. The Wizarding world is in a mess and if things with pureblood supremacy continue we'll be extinct in the next fifty or so years. It will be entirely the fault of the purebloods here should that happen however we at the ministry will not allow them to fail us like this. Pureblood people are expected to get over themselves and their old outdated views immediately or they can face the veil in the Ministry if they are not willing to do so pending on what I say next. We have designed a marriage law where those between the ages of seventeen and forty will be married to anyone of any blood type. The ministry will be paying for all weddings and a child is expected in a period of four years. Magic will ensure that no one will be pregnant while at school as it's unfair. We will not be choosing the marriage matches but the sorting hat will. Now let's begin and people must note that everyone must be married after six months."
He released the silencing spell to here shock and shouting from all directions. One by one each girl was called up to sit on the hat. "Daphne Greengrass!" was called up and the hat declared that she was to marry Harry Potter. Tracey Davis was told she'd be marrying Neville Longbottom to his surprise and Luna Lovegood was promised to Ronald Weasley. Ginerva Weasley was dead nervous as she approached the seat and hat. It took a while before she was picked for Blaise Zabini. Hermione was the last of the girls in her year to be brought up and the hat was placed on her head.
What the hell have we here? Oh no this is not right at all! This shouldn't even be here! I mean honestly!
