Hiya! Okay so this is the end of this story but there will be a sequel to the Privet Drive Saga though it won't be necessary for you to have read the Privet Drives first though it will probably help.

So the new story will be up in July and Harry will be age as that was the winning age of the vote which is 15. Thanks to those who voted and I will try to incorporat some of the review ideas in the new story.

Now there is another vote active for who finds Harry and this will close on the 3rd of July.

Thank you to everyone who reviewed this story and to everyone who placed this story on alerts. It was wonderful to know that the story was appreciated and enjoyed.

Okay so here is the conclusion to Privet Drive Wizards Downfall:

By Summer's end the general public were beginning to forget about the little boy of Privet Drive but the secret populace of Britain would never forget, the consequences and affects of the loss of their Saviour would be felt for years to come. They greatly affect the pupils who would have been his classmates at Hogwarts in 1991.

But for now through the use of extensive favours, bribery and many other scrupulous doings Albus Dumbledore was once more preparing for the new wave of pupils to walk the halls of his school and for the return of the older students, under the watchful and distrustful eye of his Deputy Head Minerva McGonnagal. Though still in his position the damage of his failure and oversights concerning young Harry would always be remembered and forever remain a thorn in his side having lost his place on the Wizengamot and being unable to have any influential say in the politics and laws of the realm for at least 20 years, thanks to that blasted Malfoy whelp.

Not that he would let that bother him anymore, the task now was to regain the trust of the Wizarding World, regain his power and influence so that when Voldemort returned he could make sure things went smoothly and that they were prepared to fight him, without their "Saviour" of course with Harry gone it meant the Longbottom boy must be the one the prophecy spoke of. Though his gran would not let him anywhere near the boy after the whole Daily Prophet slandering him and his short-comings over Harry Potter's death, no matter he would just have to be prepared for when the boy came to school as he had intended to be with Harry. He would gage his magic then and see about training him.

For now he had a staff meeting to conduct and needed to get them back on his side and convince them he had no clue about what was happening which in truth he didn't afterall he only told them to be strict and not let him know about magic until his letter came how they got beat him to death out of that he would never fathom.

As for Poppy Pomfrey she was still a medi-witch at Hogwarts after much persuasion by the Medical Board that she still deserved her licence and was one of the better medi-witched around. They had struck a compromise in that she would take a re-training course in telling signs of an abused child and in muggle illnesses as well as have an apprentice medi-witch or wizard for the coming year to aide her. After going through all the files and the children she had found several concerns and had the Department of Child Welfare look into them all. She was also intending to conduct exams of all students once they returned and implementing a First Year Medical Exam in which from this yeah onwards all first years would receive a mandatory medical exam during the first week of school in particular the Muggleborns and Half-bloods as children being so rare in the Magical World that is was extremely unlikely that any would be abused by their parents. Even so every child would be checked.

The rest of the Hogwarts Staff were of very mixed emotions concerning the Headmaster but all were distrustful of the man and watchful and intended to keep an eye on him. As well as the peculiar relationship forming between the Gryffindor and Slytherin Heads of House. Neither were acting as themselves which was not unusual as they both felt the events and lost the most trust in the Headmaster, even so that should not result in Severus Snape washing his hair and laughing and Minerva McGonagall going to his study to have tea, should it?

The rest of the Wizarding World was as usual flocking the words of the Daily Prophet in these matters save for a few who belonged to either Voldemorts circle of Dumbledore's Order who were firmly backing their respective leaders in this tragedy. With the free Deatheaters celebrating the demise of the brat-who-killed-their-leader and Dumbledore's disgraces being made public. Whilst most of the old Order members mourning the loss of their Saviour and being dubious over Dumbledore's involvement with the omission of one red-headed family who firmly supported and believed in Dumbledore though privately their eldest son had his doubts and plans to leave Britain after he graduated.

Whilst away in a hidden manor in Wales, Lucius Malfoy was drinking wine in the company of Remus Lupin who over the past month had become a very close companion and welcomed guest. Both were celebrating the latest developments in their plans to being Dumbledore's glory and power down as well as that ego of his. This plan involved the freeing of one Sirius Black from prison or at the very least giving him the trial he deserved and should have received back in 1981 had Dumbledore and Fudge not decided to just throw him to the Dementors. Hopefully the man was innocent as Lucius knew he was no deatheater and well he also desired for Remus to have one of his old friends back and Black wasn't that bad once you got over his impulsiveness and childishness. Not to mention he wasn't that bad looking and once had all the girls in Hogwarts lusting after him, a fair few of the boys too.

Though for some reason his chest tightened at the thought of Remus being one of those boys. For some reason he was growing rather possessive over the werewolf, more so after he got rid of the dreadfully shabby wardrobe and seen to it that he had three hot decent meals a day and bathed regularly, for his had a lithe toned body and sinfully soft hair with a smile that could light up even the darkest of corners. He would admit it, he was rather smitten with the werewolf and desired to make him his yet there was one problem to that plan which was ironically: Remus Lupin. A man who despite his hardships in life and lack of money was full of integrity and morals and would never take charity (he'd learnt the hard way when he took the man to buy him a new wardrobe) but also would never sleep with a married man even if he knew that the marriage was nothing but a piece of paper and that the other partner was having affairs and trysts. Even if he knew that the marriage only existed because it was an arranged one and common amongst the old fanatical purebloods to keep the blood as such.

No matter it was still early days in their friendship if this feeling continued to grow and he could ascertain that Remus felt the same way which he strongly suspected he did if the slight tinge to his cheeks when they were in contact these days was anything to go by, then he could easily see about divorcing Narcissa which he could easily do as he had proof of her infidelity already. Before he did anything he needed to see how Remus acted around Draco for the boy desperately needed a mother figure in his life, try as he might he just could not be there for him as much as he needed to be with work and his little side projects with Remus. Plus the thought of placing Remus as the wife certainly appealed to him, along with the little known fact that that Remus was a submissive werewolf and would be able to conceive a child naturally. Though male pregnancies were rare and difficult and very dangerous to the wizards' health, with a werewolf pregnancy there would be none of that, nor would the werewolf gene be passed on unless they chose to turn the child themselves at the age of five.

Many things had changed in their world, though perhaps not enough, the wheels had begun turning and laws were changing.

As always please let me know your thoughts on this.
