Harry Potter is owned by JK Rowling I'm just playing in the sandbox and not making any money of this what so ever please review I have the first 30k words written but not edited yet
Before this story starts I'm going to explain the mechanics of my fanfiction world of Harry Potter
How the Wizard Government Operates:
Wizengamot- The government body of the British Wizard World it was started originally by fifty wizard families there are three levels of membership on the Wizengamot noble members, permanent members, and new members
Noble Members- to become a noble member one or multiple members of the family have done three great deeds and you must be permanent members Wizengamot decides with a vote whether your family member or members has done a great deed or not
Permanent Members- Families must be in wizards or witches in Brittan for at least seven generations and already be new members to be eligible to become permanent members their families have three votes each
New Members- Families who have been witches or wizards for at least three generations in Briton and can afford the initial costs of membership they get one and half votes each
Laws- For a law to be passed it must obtain over 50 percent of the votes in the Wizengamot
Currently there are five members of the noble members, sixty three members of the permanent members, and 75 new members
Electing a Minister- Candidates can be any citizen of who's a witch or wizard of great Britain in the first round of voting they determine the three Candidates with the most support the second round they vote to determine who becomes the minister
Ministers Duty's-appoints the department heads of the ministry to be voted upon by the Wizengamot members he has the right to dismiss any of these department heads at any time except for the DMLE and is the head of the military during war time and can be investigated by DMLE at any time
Chief Wizengamot- Person who presides over the Wizengamot proceedings and can only cast a vote if there is a tie
Wizengamot political parties- Light, Dark, and Nuetral
Current Political Situation on Wizengamot- Up until the last war with Voldemort the neutral party often times held crucial swing votes and any law that needed to be passes had to be approved of by then the main political power of the neutral party used to be the Blacks, Malfoys, and the Potters while the latter two families at least in rhetoric were more dark they tended to vote neutral to retain power. During Voldemort's first war the heads of the Malfoys, Blacks, and the Potters were killed which effectively destroyed the hundred year old political alliance the Malfoys took their votes to the dark party along with some of the old Black votes due to them all being dead or in Azkaban while the Potter seat is on hiatus until H. Potter comes of age which has made the Dark Party have the upper hand politically for the last fifteen years if not for Dumbledore's maneuvering the dark party would be completely in power
Dark Magic- is about power being gained for oneself or ones family
Example of Dark Magic: Lets say a family is going to battle they do a ritual to increase their magical strength temporally over a period of time to achieve this one of the weaker family members may have to give up some of their magical strength for that time making them near a squib for the good of the family
Light Magic- is about do as much good as you can while trying to adhere to some sort of moral principal
Example of Light Magic: Let's say there is a plague and the only way to beat it is to have a ritual that may require a sacrifice but because it's for the greater good to stop the plague its deemed acceptable
Example of Magic that can be considered either or- Lily Potter did a ritual that sacrificing herself created a shield that consisted of all her magic formed into a shield that was powerful enough to stop a killing curse it could be considered dark because of the shellfish nature of protecting your own child while it could be considered a greater good sacrifice to stop the greatest wizard that ever lived
Levels of Power for Wizards- 1-3 Squib or near squib; 4-7 Most Wizards; 8-10 Wizards able to become battle or Dread lords or ladies; 11-15 Lord or Lady Level: Voldemort's power 14 Dumbledore's 12
Lords or Lady- Simply having the magic necessary does not make one a Lord or Lady they must meet three requirements one is the necessary magic, a vision of the way forward an example is (My goal is to make all kinds of magic legal so that people can practice any way they like), and thirdly they must have at least seven followers who believe in their vision and our willing to swear loyalty
Battle Lord or Ladies- are chosen by six wizards or witches to always follow into battle; They are usually bonded with a mark and during battle the battle lord can communicate through the bond; However unlike a Lord or Lady Level the Battle Lord or Lady has no control of the members lives, feel their magic, or emotions outside of battle. The mark is used to summon their members to battle
Dread Lord or Ladies- Same as Battle Lord except used for dark families and they are only chosen based on who is the most powerful wizard or witch while the Battle Lord could be chosen by someone with less power but more battle experience
Lord and Lady Bonds- They can be implemented by someone who is not a lord however they must be at least powerful enough to be a Battle or Dread Lord and even someone with a magical strength of ten can only bond three people this way. Where a Lord Level wizard can bond an unlimited number of wizards and witches. The advantages of a Lord or Lady bond are that they can feel the magic and emotion of the bond members at all time and the bond members can feel their lord or lady's magic it also makes the people in the bond more likely to trust and obey their chosen lord or lady the people in the bond tend to be mentally stable at almost all times when their lord commands them to do something they also get a slight boost in magical powers and their lord or lady feels inclined to protect them as well
Family Alliances- Where two families agree to go to battle together, protecting each other's families as their own, and to raise each other's children if they are the last of their line (Tend to be used by light or neutral families)
Family Lordship Bonds- If a family saves another their magic demands payment one of the ways is to create a family alliance another is to become vassals of the family that saved yours or the family could choose to serve that family. For reasons unknown a family can only bond three families this way and as such the family always serves that family unless that family serves another which makes your bond void to that family you are currently serving thereby making you free from your bonds (Tend to be used by Dark or neutral families)
Life Debt- Cannot be incurred among of an immediate family, Family Alliances, Family Lordship Bonds, Battle or Dread Lords, and regular lordship bonds: However to everyone else if applies. Life Debts occur between two individuals when one saves another's life without thought to an award being given and magic demands some sort of payment for the said deed
Sponsorship bond- Before the pureblood supremacists movement was strong it was common for the Permanent Members of the Wizengamot to choose a promising student and teaching them how to start their own house with all the magic that entails and opening doors for promising jobs within the ministry in exchange when they finally do reach new membership within the Wizengamot they agree to vote with the said family for an x amount of years
Now onto the actual story
The Potter Family Alliance
A drink with Hagrid that's all it had taken for a seven year quest to have ended. Remus remembered asking Dumbledore seven years ago on the location of Harry so he could check in on him from time to time. But had been denied no matter how thoroughly he had begged. So like any good marauder after being rejected he had taken matters into his own hands he broke into the ministry's hall of records by casting on confundus charm on the guard unfortunately Lily, Harry, and James document were charmed so that he couldn't retain any of the information after reading it. Not knowing what else to do Remus decided that for now he had to let things be. Than four days ago he received a job from families who were allied with the Potter family they had already exhausted all legal avenues to raise Harry with joint custody along with his aunt so the only thing really left to do was asking him to renew his investigation by interviewing people who were close to Dumbledore for clues. A drinking night with Hagrid and Remus had his answer Number 4 Privet Drive. As Lupin apparted to the street he immediately came to the conclusion that was something definitely unnerving about the place it was all to picture perfect the houses pretty much looked the same and all the neighbors who smiled at you were deeply fake. Taking a deep breath Remus decided upon a course of action the Potter's allies wanted to meet him no matter what and Dumbledore couldn't know otherwise he would undoubtedly stop it. Remus guessed that Harry could only go so far away from the wards without them activating so there best bet was to meet Harry and his Aunt in a local restaurant within the area. This could be arranged tomorrow at the earliest first though he had to see Harry. It was four am so Remus cast a delusionment and a silencing charm. Remus came upon number 4 privet drive casting a silent alohamora on the door and used his werewolf senses to find Harry's room his nose led him to a cupboard under the stairs where his advanced hearing heard shallow breathing and his advanced smell smelt dried blood. Anger and disgust rose through him. They had hurt the last family member then took a deep calming breath and screwing every plan that he just had made he unlocked the door by ripping it open almost tearing down the door in the process. As of the day before a now seven year old Harry Potter was sleeping in appearance he looked like he was five, his breathing was shallow, his black hair scattered around his head, and his baggy clothes had spots of blood on them Remus thought they were more suited to a garbage bin then on a child. Noticing that Harry's green eyes were slowly opening cast a sleepy charm and a couple pain easing charms on the ribs his breathing became easier then sweeping Harry into his arms and swearing a marauders revenge he closed the cupboard door and relocked it. After he exited Privet Drive he checked Harry for a tracking charm and apparted to the Lovegood family.
Xenophiliusphilius Lovegood and his daughter Luna were up early watching the sunset and the warkspots that came with it. There peace was disrupted when Remus apparted in with a sleeping Harry Potter. Xenophilius turned around quickly took one look at Harry and said,
"Please take Harry to the guest bedroom Remus Luna gather your mom's medical supply. I'll make some floo-calls judging from his appearance your holding Harry and the alliances members will definitely need to know and Lady Greengrass is the best healer I know of."
Luna and Lupin dispersed on their assigned tasks and Xenophilius felt a sadness overtake him. For three hundred years the Lovegood and the Potters had been allies ever since Jacklyn Potter had come to their aid when Dark Lady Patricia had come to the Emerald Forest which their family magic made them a patriarch of to capture the black tailed pixies and destroying the forest. Ever since then they had a family alliance with the Potter family which included taking in their kin if none of the Potter family was of age or alive. They would also come to each other's aide if called upon. He knew that the other three family's that were allied to the Potter family the Greengrass, Moons, and Longbottoms had similar arrangements. In hindsight it seemed they should have taken the direct route instead of the legal one hopefully Harry wouldn't take it out on their families by annulling their alliances. For the next hour Xenophilius fire called the various families starting with the Greengrass family due to the medical nature of Harry's problems. Needless to say everyone was extremely angry at Dumbledore and agreed to all meet in three days after Harry had a little time to adjust to everything to see if Harry would accept the agreement they had come up with for Harry's living arrangement before and during Hogwarts.
Harry awoke the next morning on a very comfortable bed in a spacious room with a medium sized window letting in the sun. Standing on the foot of the bed with lively grey eyes, wavy blond hair, and a disarming smile was Luna Lovegood,
Hesitantly Harry asked, "Is this heaven?"
Tilting her head Luna replied, "No my mummy's in heaven but I'm pretty sure it's a nicer place than you were before."
Then going to Harry's bedside she picked up a wet rag and put it down upon his forehead and Harry flinched back instinctively. Looking down at Harry Luna gave him a half hug,
"I'll never hurt you Harry my name's Luna by the way you seem to be feeling better and the warkspots are leaving your head."
"Nothing hurting at the moment how do you know my name and I'm not quite sure what a warkspot is."
Smiling dreamily Luna replied, "There fluffy creatures that float high above the trees and effect the brain making you frightened and scared. They are also rather beautiful."
Not knowing quite what to say but wanting to be polite, "I'm rather glad they're going away then."
Suddenly Xenophilius walked in, "Ah young Harry I'm sure you have a lot of questions about how you ended up here but first you're at my house and after breakfast Remus and I will answer any questions you have."
Hearing this Harry got up, "I can make breakfast," Luna in a forceful but gentle manner pushed him back into bed, "Daddy will take of breakfast I'm going to look you over once more to make sure your all better."
Harry was confused by the entire situation he was pretty sure Aunt Peatunia would have a fit with strange these people seemed to be however to Harry this place was already way better than the Dursleys ever were and he didn't want to go back so he decided it was best not to argue, "Your passable Harry and after breakfast maybe we can play together and go on an adventure with Lucy my she's a wolf that adopted me after we healed her injuries she likes to play with me."
Harry couldn't keep himself from smiling at the thought of playing with someone which was something he was never allowed to do and swung himself out of bed, "I'd like that Luna."
Harry followed her downstairs though Luna skipped down the stairs while Harry went at a brisk walk instead.
