Summary: Post-DH A/U, non-canon, possible OOC and many other things I shall come up with later. After the final battle, the surviving Death Eaters were rounded up for sentencing if they had not already gone into hiding. With Azkaban calling and the public cries for harsh sentences nothing could prepare the most notorious pure-blooded family for what will happen next.

AN: Okay so I came up with this idea some time ago and recently decided to go ahead and write it. After I found out the Malfoys did not receive prison time for defecting at the last second along with Narcissa's lie to The Dark Lord, I thought that this would be a different (and humorous) form of retribution. Also I will need a Beta for this story since it's been awhile since I've written fanfic and this is my first HP fic.

Chapter 1

After many months of rebuilding and determining the whereabouts of the remaining Death Eaters, many of the Dark Lord's followers were finally brought to justice. Most were promptly sentenced to life in Azkaban or The Kiss for their crimes committed during the War and the final battle. But for the Malfoy family, certain conflicts arose when the time came to decide their fate. Some members of the Wizengamot argued that since the entire family defected from the Death Eaters towards the end of the war, along with Narcissa lying about Harry Potter's death, it was warranted that they should be granted leniency in sentencing. But for others, primarily those who had personally lost loved ones in battle for the side of the Light, they were just as guilty as the ones who killed.

After months of deliberation and testimonies, the Wizengamot had finally reached a decision.

VERDICT FOR MALFOY FAMILY DECIDED

After many months of arguments, testimonies and deliberation the sentencing for the controversial Malfoy family has been handed down. Chief Warlock John Upchurch announced the Wizengamot's decision in a press conference today.

"After careful consideration, the court has taken in all of the facts regarding the family's actions during and after the war. Based on the evidence and testimonials we have reviewed it is the decision of the Wizengamot to banish Lucius, Narcissa, and Draco Malfoy from Wizarding Britain for no less than three years ,effective immediately. The court has decided that in regard to the family's well-known contempt for Muggle-Born wizards and witches, along with Muggles that they shall serve their sentence abroad in the Muggle United States under the careful watch of the British Wizarding Embassy. During this time the family will be stripped of their wands and be required to live like Muggles. If they reveal their true idenites to anyone during this time with special consideration to Muggles, the entire family will be immediately sent to Azkaban for life."

Two weeks later the once prominent and regal pure-blood clan were escorted from Malfoy Manor and brought to the Ministry Headquarters where they were to travel by Floo to the Embassy to recive further directions. Meanwhile, the big question on everyone's mind was, "What will happen next?"

AN: Okay so this story's starting out slow but I need to set the background information first. I chose the U.S. because I know very little about Britain and wanted to change the setting of the Muggle world for a change. R&R soon (no flames, this is my first HP story and there will be better chapters along the way!) I should have the next chapter up in the next week or so.
