War of the Worlds

by simpson925

Once the final wizarding war ended, the magic races rose up in rebellion and went to war with the world. No more will they suffer oppression at the hands of the wizards. With the wizards vastly outnumbered, can Filius Flitwick, a half-breed, create peace through negotiations with both sides? Or are they doomed to be enslaved like the creatures before them once were?

War of the Worlds

It had been two years since the end of the war in which Harry Potter killed Lord Voldemort. Britain had crumbled, completely unable to function as a country independently anymore, and so Magical France and Magical Ireland tried to help them back on their feet. Unfortunately for Britain and subsequently the world, magical creatures had been denied rights for such a long time, both in Britain and abroad. Since the downfall of Voldemort, people started to treat the 'creatures' even worse. This is what caused the International Conference of Magical Races to meet for the first time in hundreds of years in Britain, they all agreed on one thing. The world would pay for what they had done to them.

This council consisted of Dementors, Goblins, Elves (Both High and House), Merfolk, Dwarves, Vampires, Werewolves, Fairy's, Brownies and Dryads. These were just a selection of the races present. They all decided to go to war with the world. And so, we come to present day, with war decimating Europe, the Americas struggling to cope, Asia plagued with rebellion, Africa dying of a disease. Everyone saw this as the day wizards died.

In comes Filius Flitwick, the hero of our story, a retired teacher from Hogwarts and more importantly a Half-Breed. He is half goblin, half wizard. He has been elected by the International Confederation of Wizards (ICW) to represent all of the wizard kind in Negotiations. He chose Buckingham Palace as a neutral ground for them to negotiate at, the Queen was in full agreement.

In this room sat Filius at the head of the table, with representatives of heads of state on one side, and representatives of heads of races on the other.

"Now everyone, we are here to discuss a way to end this war" announced Filius as he opened the discussions

"I speak for all the magical races, when I say, we want them to feel and be subjected to as much pain as we went through over these past thousands of years, we will take no more than full servitude of the wizards," said a Fairy is known as Queen Grey

"We will not make ourselves a servant to anyone, we are the superior race, you will end this madness or we will reign fire and fury upon you!" announced President Trump (A/N: Before you say it, I know, I just wanted this here)

"You each want strong things, we need to now come to a middle ground to have peace. What I'm hearing from both sides is a need for equality. The races don't want to be subpar to wizards and wizards don't want to be subpar to anyone else, am I correct" said Filius

"I will take the silence to mean that I am correct, in that case, we need to create the first step to peace by creating equality in each countries government. Each race should have access to basic services like education, healthcare, and representation. Therefore, schools and hospitals should open there doors to all races while governing bodies will immediately repeal discriminatory laws, and governing bodies will have equal amounts of people on them from all races, in proportion to their population size, as 20% of the population in Britain are wizards, 20% of the Wizengamot should be wizards, so on and so forth. Could this be something you will all agree to?" Asked Filius

"We can agree," said Queen Grey

"But what about our rights, what if wizards are forced out because everyone else gangs up on us?" Asked Minister for Magic Amelia Bones

"Under these peace negotiations, if the other races were to break the treaty, they would forfeit all rights they have received from these negotiations. It is under everyone's best interests to keep the treaty from falling apart." Replied Filius

And so, it came to be on this day forth, that the Treaty of Equality was signed, the magical world was changed as we know it as magical races were suddenly allowed access to things they had been denied for years by the oppressive wizards. It would take a long time to get some stability in the world, but they could at least claim to have started gaining peace once more

Part of this peace, a new international body was created to promote peace among all magical races, and thus a new competition was devised. It was a yearly cup, whichever race's champion won the cup for that year, would take the seat at President of the body for the next year and promote peace. It was known as the War & Peace cup.

Each of the magical races had selected amazing champions to represent them in this first ever tournament, hoping to be the president of the new body and to help the rights of their peoples.

The way the tournament would work is in three stages, an athletic potion, an academic portion and finally a debate. There were around 300 magic races competing, 100 would be knocked out from the first round, 100 from the second round and they would all go head to head one by one, in live broadcast debates, voted on for by the audience, as to who they would knock out each round. They would be sectioned into groups first before going against others. Similar to how the world cup works.

The first portion of the tournament was today, also known as the Athletic portion. This portion would be a triathlon. The first 200 races over the line at the end would go through to the next round.

Overseeing all of this was the current President of International Magical Cooperation; Filius Flitwick

"On my wand blast, magic races, on your marks, get set, GO!" He said as he blasted his wand three times, watching as each of the races set off to achieve glory for the people. He secretly hoped that whoever won this year, would not be a wizard, but as long as they won it fairly, he did not mind.
