Hermione and Tonks where currently in the back of the ministry car that they had been given with Teddy in a carrier in between them with Damon and Harry in the front of the car with Damon driving it, they where currently driving a magically altered red Audi Quattro which Damon had purchased himself, however unlike when Mr Weasley had done it all the modifications to the car where all legal as it didn't fly but it cast a glamour on the car to make it seem like a normal Audi Quattro when in the same sentence it was well known in the ministry that it wasn't. The car could reach a speed of over 300 mph which he wouldn't even think about trying with Teddy in the car because of the fact that Tonks would skin him alive if anything happened to the infant. Also the car was charmed to expand to Damon' will on how many people where getting into the car.

"So those two idiots will be dealt with later," Damon said "when I get back to the ministry building if they aren't in a holding cell I will be killing my Auror force, the fact that I wasn't alerted to more magical people entering the country breaks the chain of command as I am to be told when anyone magical comes into the country even if Dumbledore came here I would know, hell when he did come I knew,"

"When did Dumbledore come?" Tonks asked

"Erm 1993." Damon said after thinking about it for a minute or two "the Hogwarts board removed him because there was a string of attacks at the school and the Australian minister invited him because I was being honoured as the first British wizard to become a head of department whilst working in another, I was a hitwizard and an Auror at the time."

"I am thinking of joining the aurors," Hermione said surprising everyone.

"I thought you wanted to do something about magical creature rights," Harry said trying to hide the surprise from his voice.

"Oh I do Harry," Hermione said truthfully "but what you have to think is that magical Britain is backward and bigoted, I could be dead before the rule changes I want to see happen where as if I was an Auror I would be able to be making an instant difference to the world by taking dangerous wizards off of the streets."

"It is an honourable career," Tonks put in "either of your choices are Hermione but you never know the magical world could change now that Voldemort is gone, all of his little death eaters now no longer have their master to cower behind when they have someone challenge them and plus my aunt Bella is dead as well so that means that the death eaters are more likely to be challenged now."

Hermione seemed to really be thinking about what Tonks had said but also if Hermione was an Auror she thought that would make her be able to be closer to Harry which was what she wanted. 'I guess it will be something I will have to consider again' Hermione thought to herself as she had not really thought of where she fit in, especially in the magical world but in the magical world she hadn't care where she was so long as she was with Harry.

"What about you Harry?" Damon asked "will we have the potential pleasure of you joining the Auror force in a couple of years? Hell I would take you on right now if all of these rumours that had been said about you where right."

"Like what?" Harry asked

"That you killed a basilisk in your second year," Damon said "that you fought off 100 Dementors in your third year, that you fought a nesting mother Hungarian horntail in your fourth year,"

"Yes, Yes and Yes," Harry said with a slight smirk on his face as a look of awe and surprise appeared on Damon's face.

"How would you like to be my second in command?" Damon said and Harry wasn't sure if he was being serious or joking.

"I haven't even finished school yet," Harry said

"You weren't even halfway through school and you had fought basilisks and Dementors," Damon pointed out "breaking up drunken bar fights in Sydney on a weekend should be easy for you there is the occasional theft or murder"

"You are being serious? Harry asked "this isn't a joke or a trick?"

"I don't trick people I respect," Damon said "and I rarely joke in anyway shape or form you can ask Dora I am a very straight shooting individual Harry and there are only two wizards I respect as much as you because of your accomplishments and one witch, sadly both men have passed on to the next great adventure and the witch is currently sitting in the back of this car."

"Tonks," Harry asked pretty much knowing the answer and Damon nodded confirming it.

"This is the house," Damon said stopping the car and then his phone rang "I have to take this, its the office you guys go in I will follow you when I am done,"

Hermione nodded and got out of the car and then took Teddy as Tonks got out.

"Hello?" Damon said into the phone.

"Hey Damon it's Sam." His deputy officer Sam Hunt said "we got your little delivery, sadly the older one tried resisting arrest and I had to hit him and the minister wants you in here as they are shouting for my superior,"

"On my way Sammy," Damon said "for the record why did you hit him?"

"He called you a miscreant that should be arrested on behalf of not knowing your betters," Sam said laughing down the phone.

"And they want me back?" Damon said "do me a favour and call St Bernard' morgue they may have a new patient checking in for a autopsy in about 30 minutes.

Sam laughed and hung up and Damon began driving back

In the house

Hermione knocked on the door and her mother opened the door and was surprised to be pulled into a hug,

"Hermione," her mother said pulling her into a deep hug and her body wracked with sobs "Dan come here it's Hermione.

Then a tall slim man ran from the kitchen and pulled his daughter into a hug all three Granger' where crying now,

"Why do you remember?" Hermione asked "I put a memory charm on you both."

"A man turned up a couple of hours ago," Emma said "tall, he had blonde hair, he called himself Sam something, he was part of the Australian Auror force, he had come looking for us and removed the charm you placed on us and explained the war to us and why you did what you did."

"So are you mad?" Hermione asked hoping that her parents would understand why she had done what she had done.

"No we aren't mad," Emma said "war can make people do things for the people they love so that they can protect them and wanting to do something for someone can have you do things you wouldn't normally do like a boy for instance Hermione Jean." Hermione blushed at this as she didn't expect her crush on Harry to be found out by anyone let alone her mother.

"Come in," Dan Granger said moving out of the way for Tonks and Harry to step in.

"I think you should introduce us to your friends Hermione." Emma Granger said

"This is Tonks and her son Teddy." Hermione said "and this is my best friend in the whole world Harry Potter,"

"So this is the boy that you send us away for?" Dan asked and Harry looked down he didn't want to cause problems between Hermione and her parents and she had hidden them for their own protection and had nothing to do with Harry but he knew better than to argue with him.

"Yes sir," Harry said

"I hope you realise how much of a loyal friend my daughter is Harry," Dan Granger said "before she met you I thought the only thing she would protect as much as she has you would be one of the books that my mother left her when she passed." Hermione blushed again as her parents embarrassed her, why did her father have to bring up that she didn't have many friends before Hogwarts? She didn't understand why he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

"Oh I do sir," Harry said truthfully "I feel the same way about her, I would protect her with my life,"

"I am glad to hear that Harry," Dan Granger said "I approve."

"Of what daddy?" Hermione asked

"Of your engagement to Harry," Dan Granger said confused "that is why you are here isn't it? To ask our permission?"

Harry did the only thing that seemed reasonable to his brain at the time he passed out because the saviour of the magical world didn't faint, with Hermione right behind him.

Damon

Damon entered the Auror offices to see Sam sitting waiting for him with the minister of magic and sometime muggle actor Simon Baker.

"Hey Si," Damon said shaking his boss' extended hand "sorry I was taking Harry and Hermione to the Granger' the motorway was murder sir,"

"It is quite alright Damon," Simon said "it gave us more time to hold those two in a cell to let the panic build in them."

"I knew that there was reason I liked you Si," Damon said "you would have been a Slytherin if you were in Hogwarts, that is sneaky,"

"I didn't think that it was a bad thing?" Simon said with a grin "no politician is squeaky clean."

"Right so what can we nail these guys with?" Damon asked

"Over here?" Simon said "attacking a foreign guest, using an unforgiveable and inciting racial hatred, the British want the younger one themselves though in accordance of something to do with love potions."

"Ok," Damon said "can I go and scare them and see if I can get a confession?"

"That is why you are the best in the job Damon." Simon said "the wand has to stay out here though," Damon smirked and handed his wand over to his boss and entered the room.

"You do know he can do wandless magic right sir?" Sam asked his boss,

"I have his wand," Simon said with a grin "therefore no wand signature, I have worked with Damon for 6 years whilst he has been cutting corners and beating the crap out of the worst scum in Australia who do you think has had his back in that time?"

Damon went in the room and slammed the door alerting both Weasley' to his presence.

"How did you get in here?" Percy said "this is a ministry building."

"Yeah this is an Australian ministry holding cell," Damon said "oh I forgot you don't know who I am head Auror and hitwizard Damon John Beck nice to meet you."

Percy then knew that they were screwed as they were on the other side of the world to the one person he feared more than anyone in the world, his mother but Damon seemed like Molly Weasley wouldn't scare him at all. Ron on the other hand wasn't nearly as intelligent as his former head boy of a brother.

"Let us out then," Ron said snapping his fingers at Damon.

"Why would I do that?" Damon asked mentally suppressing the urge to snap the hand off and shove down Weasley' throat,

"Well I am a war hero," Ron said "I demand respect,"

"How many did you kill Weasley?" Damon said "you were a scared child who hid behind his mother' skirt the whole fight, as far as I knew you were at home with spattergroit."

Then Ron did the stupidest thing imaginable and he leant across the table and slapped the Auror across the face expecting Damon to be hurt.

"Sam," Damon said knocking on the door "get the older Weasley out of here and tell Si call 000"

"Yes boss," Sam said leading Percy out and closing the door and then Damon put the chair underneath the door handle jamming it making sure no one could get in or out.

"Showtime," Damon said and Ron gulped.

Damon picked Ron up by the scruff of his robes and threw him onto the interview steel table causing Ron to grunt in pain and Damon began punching Ron in the face quickly breaking his nose and continued to rain down blows to Ron' face breaking his cheekbones and both jaws.

Then the chair was banished from the door and Simon walked back into the room.

"You done Ace?" he asked

"Nearly," Damon said pulling Ron to his feet and handing him to Simon "hold him a sec,"

Damon took a run up to deliver an earth shattering punt to Ron' balls which Simon stepped away from and closed his eyes and turned away as he saw the run up.

"Done now?" Simon asked and Damon grinned and left the room.

"Jesus," Simon said looking down on the beaten Weasley "not bad for a convict colony hey Weasley?"

A/N: Let me know if you think you know where the car is from on TV and hopefully that is something you have been waitng for apart from Ron fans of course
