**As always I do not own stargate nor do I own Harry Potter. I am merely playing in their sandboxes. I do not have a beta reader currently.**
In the atrium of the Ministry at the floo terminal he reappeard. Joining the queue Harry was waiting in line to make an inquiry regarding Madam Bones when he heard a sickly sweet voice "Potter what are you doing here?" sneered Doloris Umbridge as she waddled towards him.
"Not that it is any of your business but I am here on private business. So why don't you do swallow a fly or something." replied Harry sarcastically.
"How dare you, I am the Senior Undersecretery to the Minister of Magic." she screeched.
"And I am the Lord Potter-Black remember who you are speaking to." Harry replied as if was talking to a small child.
Just as Doloris was about to come back Amelia Bones who has been heading towards her office caught sight of Harry and Doloris "Harry." she called out.
Turning he faced Amelia and said "Madam Bones the very person. Do you have some time there are somethings that I need to speak to you about..." he glanced at Umbridge and said "privately."
"Certainly come to my office won't you." she said with a smirk as she led Harry away from a sputtering toad.
"Moving through the building until the came to the DMLE and Amelia's office she said "So what can I do for you?"
"Actually there is something I can do for you." he replied with a small smirk and she raised an eyebrow in response.
"Yes I understand that there is a vote of no confidence this afternoon with Fudge and I wanted to let you know that I will support you becoming Minister." replied Harry.
"What makes you think I want to be Minister." she replied dryly.
"Well I wasn't sure if you would be going for the position but seeing as you know my plans I was hoping that you would. At least until we leave for home. I need an in with the ICW to get everyone on board with our plans and soon." replied Harry.
Sighing in resignation she said "OK I will do it."
"Good now the second thing was as you know we have Voldemort in stasis in Avalon. We have determined that we he is killed all of his death eaters will drop as well." said Harry as he held up his hand and continued "They all willingly took the dark mark with allows him to access his magical core. So..." said Harry.
"So when he goes so do they because they willingly allowed him access to their magical cores. They'll either die or be squibs." she said as she said down heavily.
"There is no way. Not that I want to save them but there may be some outcry from the public." she inquired.
"No I spoke with one of our doctors before coming here even with all our advanced technology there is nothing we could do as it would be done in a matter of seconds. Short of beaming everyone to stasis pods and trying to stop the breaches from Avalon there is nothing we could do. Even then we would still loose them as they basically sold their souls to him." replied Harry.
"OK, well let's leave that for now. The Wizengamot is due to convene in thirty minutes.
"Not a problem. Let me just change and we shall be off." replied Harry as he waved his hand over himself changing from his casual robes to something more formal befitting the style of the Wizengamot.
Moving through the building they made their way into the Wizengamot chambers. Seeing Fudge whispering to Umbridge Harry had to smirk. As he stayed chatting to Amelia and Augusta he could also see Scrimgeour making the rounds trying to drum up support.
After a few minutes the doors closed and the Lady Marchbanks took the stand and said "We are here today to discuss the future of our country and to have a vote of no confidence in the current Minister of Magic." she said as she cast a stern gaze around the room.
"But first is there any new business?" she inquired.
Harry new that this was it and stood saying "I do have new business my Lady."
Eyeing him with a small smile she said "What is your new business Mr. Potter?"
"I am here today to claim my seats within this august body." replied Harry.
"Ahem, claim your seats Mr Potter you are too young to claim any seat within this body." said Umbridge in her sickly sweet voice.
"I beg to differ Madam Umbridge. I have been declared a legal adult three times in magic over the last two years." replied Harry with a sneer.
"I doubt that Mr..." she replied.
"Madam Umbridge it is not the place of a secretery to question proceedings within these chambers." snapped Griselda.
Purpling in rage she was about to reply when Griselda continued on saying "Another outburst and you will be removed from these proceedings.
"Mr Potter if you please." she indicated. As Harry moved down to the floor of the Wizengamot.
"I Hadrain James Potter, Lord of the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Potter, Lord of the Most Ancient and Most Revered House of Gryffindor. Lord of the Most Ancient and Most Revered House of Gryffindor. Lord of the Most Ancient House and Revered House of Ravenclaw.
Lord of the Most Ancient House of Peverell. Lord of the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Black and finally Lord of the Most Ancient and Revered House of Slytherin through the right of conquest to hereby claim my seats within the Wizengamot. So I speak so mote it be.
As he spoke the magic of the Wizengamot examined and approved his claim. People where gob-smacked at the house he had claimed. They all knew what it meant when the Wizengamot approved his claims and many hushed whispered broke out in the room.
Fudge knew that his time as Minister was over as there was no way Potter would support him. Umbridge looked like she would have tadpoles.
Just as people where about to interject Griselda said "Your claims have been acknowledged you may take your seats among your peers."
Harry could see the mixture of looks he was receiving they where a mixture of curiosity and anger. As Harry took his seat he was thinking about the events that led to this point.
Harry was snapped from his musings when he heard Augusta Longbottom who was wearing her aged glamour saying "I put forward a motion for a vote of no confidence in Cornelius Fudge."
Harry replied "Seconded."
It was Lucius Malfoy who objected but was quickly shouted down.
The results where quick and decisive in a vote of no confidence for Cornelius Fudge. The vote went one hundred and seventeen to thirty three. Soon after Cornelius was ousted as Minister. Umbridge looked like she would burst a blood vessel.
"We now begin the process of electing a new Minister of Magic." said Madam Marchbanks.
Standing and waiting to be acknowledged Harry waited. Once he was acknowledged he began "We are entering a dark period in our lives and as soon I can think of only one person who I would want to lead us through these times. This person who regarded as being incorruptible and steadfast in their loyalty to not only truth and justice but to the British magical community. That person is Amelia Bones. I want to propose that she is the best person to lead and as such I nominate her for position of Minister of Magic."
There was some quite murmuring but no one spoke out against the nomination. It was Augusta who replied "Seconded."
Looking around the room the Lady Marchbanks said "Are there any other nominations?"
It was here that Elphias Dodge spoke up saying "I would like to nominate Albus Dumbledore."
"Here, here. I would like to second the nomination." replied the purple haired witch Brunhilde Stokke.
"Are there anymore nominations?" asked the Lady Marchbanks. Seeing none she continued on saying "We shall now take a vote."
It was twenty minutes later when Amelia Bones was sworn in as the Minister of Magic.
Her first order of business was "Aurors arrest Dolores Umbridge." she said with an almost feral relish.
"What, how dare you I am..." sputtered Umbridge in outrage just as she was cut of by Bones.
"You are fired from the Ministry of Magic. Not only that but you are under arrest for the use of an illegal blood quill on the students of Hogwarts and other crimes that have to be specified."
Still sputtering in outrage she tried and failed to get her wand from her holster as she was hit with three stunners and collapsed.
It was a hectic and busy three hours later when Amelia finally had time to talk to Harry again.
"So what's the plan? I assume you have one." she said dryly.
"I do but I wanted to make sure that you where on board first. After all when Voldemort has been finished off so to speak all of his death eaters will go with him." replied Harry.
Sighing she replied "It would have been nice to be able to try them for their crimes but this is just as good if not better. We can tell the truth about the dark marks as slave brands and it will show people that these people where not innocent imperious victims as they claimed."
"Good thinking, I shall make arrangements and I shall contact you. I was wondering if you could arrange for me to speak to the ICW?" said Harry.
"That should not be a problem. May I ask why though?" inquired Amelia.
"When we leave I plan on removing every trace of the magical world from the planet. That includes all witches and wizards. I will give them the choice of coming with us." replied Harry.
"Interesting, while I don't don't doubt that a lot of people will want to come with you. There are some who won't want to go to the stars." she replied.
"I know that, it's why I want to give them options." Harry said with a smirk
"Oh and what would those options be..." replied Amelia as she cleaned her monocle before putting it back in place over her right eye.
Smirking Harry told Amelia the options that he was going to give the global wizarding world.
Upon hearing the options her monocle fell from it's place and only for the charm upon it, it would have hit her desk and rolled off onto the floor.
"That's ambitious Harry." said Amelia. Once again adjusting her monocle.
"I know but what else can I do?" replied Harry.
"OK well leave it with me and I shall make arrangements. It won't be immediate but I should thin we shall have the meeting set up in the next month." said Amelia.
"Thank you. Well I had better return to Avalon and deal with Riddle. I shall be in touch as soon as it is done and thank you for everything." said Harry as he stood. "Do you mind if I transport from here?"
"No not at all." replied Amelia.
Nodding Harry disappeared in a flash of white light.
Reappearing in command he made his way to his office. Tapping his comm badge he said "Sirius, Remus come in please."
"Yes High Chancellor." replied Sirius and Remus.
"Can you meet me in section 5 in 30 minutes." replied Harry.
"Of course." they replied and the line went dead.
Moving to his office Harry logged in to the system and seen the reports away his approval. The most pressing seemed to be the ones from the trekkies. With a small chuckle to himself Harry closed the computer terminal and then headed out to section 5.
Ten minutes later Harry entered section 5 and seen Remus, Sirius and Tonks. "Good afternoon everyone." he said.
"Good afternoon High Chancellor." said Remus.
Tonks and Sirius nodded in greeting when Sirius said "So why are we here?"
Taking a deep breath Harry said "It's time to end the war before it really begins. Voldemort has to be killed. I have spoken to Amelia Bones the new Minister of Magic I might add and she agrees."
"OK well how do you want to do this?" inquired Remus.
"We shall just beam his constructed body and Nagini into the cities pattern buffers and then delete his information." replied a solemn Harry.
"Are you OK with this?" asked Sirius.
"I'm OK it's just it's a little surreal for this to be all over so soon. Not that I am complaining but it's a little hard to reconcile everything at the moment." said Harry.
"If you can't do this Harry we can do it for you." said Remus.
Shaking his head Harry said "No I want this done. I'm not going to shy away at the the last moment."
"OK well let's do this then." replied Sirius as he input the commands into the console next to him.
Before Harry could finish Voldemort off the door opened and in walked The Tonks, The Lovegood's , The Grangers and the Longbottom's.
Looking confused Harry said "Why are you all here?"
"Harry, we promised you that no matter what we would stand beside you." replied Neville.
"We love you Harry and we will always be here you don't have to do this alone." said Hermione.
"The nargles will disappear for the most part once he is gone." replied Luna.
Nodding with tears in his eyes Harry replied "Thanks guys and everyone I sincerely mean that."
Moving to the console Harry finished off the commands that had been input by Sirius and in a flash of light Voldemort and Nagini where gone and with another command the message appeared on screen indicating pattern erased. "It's done. For my parents, for Regulus and for everyone who lost their lives to that mad man" he whispered.
Walking up to Harry Hermione took his hand and said "You did the right thing. We are finally free of that mad man. We can live rebuild our race and move forward." with a kiss on his cheek she said come let's go have a drink and relax.
Looking up from the console Sirius said "You go ahead I'll inform Amelia and then I shall follow you."
"What about Dumbledore?" said Luna as she took in Dumbledore as he was asleep in the stasis booth.
"I'll deal with that you go and have a drink and I will follow along in a few minutes." replied Sirius.
"Alright let's go." said Remus as he took Tonks by the hand and everyone left the room.
"Sirius Black to Amelia Bones." said Sirius as he activated the comm unit.
"Go ahead Sirius." replied Amelia.
"It's done Voldemort is gone and this time he will not be back." said Sirius seriously.
Letting out a breath she didn't know she was holding she replied "Thank you for telling me. How is Harry?"
"He is OK we are all here with him so you know yourself. Taking a life even if it should be done, it's still hard." he said.
"OK well if you need anything let me know. I'll contact the Daily Prophet and make the announcement in the morning addition." she said.
"Not a problem Amelia and congratulations on your victory." replied Sirius.
"Thank you." said Amelia.
"OK well I had better go I'll talk to you soon." replied Sirius and with that he closed the comm line.
Turning to Dumbledore he said "You are an evil bastard you know that. We looked up to you and this is how we are repaid. Well no more. What I do now I do for all of us."
Inputting some commands there was a flash of white light and on screen in front of Sirius it showed up "Pattern erased." Sirius said to himself "Now we are free and my god-son will not fall to your machinations."
Turning Sirius called out "Avalon deactivate this lab."
"Order confirmed" replied Avalon and as Sirius went through the door the lights to the lab turned of signalling the end of the horrific part of a lot of peoples lives.
The next day the people of the magical world awoke to the news headlines "Voldemort is dead!"
"Voldemort is dead and this time he won't be back."
In a stunning turn of events it has been announced that Voldemort who real name was Tom Riddle has been killed. Despite the sketchy details at present we received this confirmation that Voldemort is dead. Also we have received confirmation that all of his death eaters died with him as well. Apparently when they became his servants they took the dark mark which allowed him access to their magical cores. The result was that when he was killed Voldemort's followers died suffering a major core breach to which there is not treatment.
It has been rumoured that Harry Potter is the one who killed him but as yet we have not received any confirmation on this. Whatever or whoever the reason was we at the Daily Prophet are eternally grateful and on behalf of everyone in the magical community we say thank you. As we know more information we shall keep you updated.
(For information on Tom Riddle turn to page 3.)
(For for information on the dark mark turn to page 4.)
Around the magical community the reactions where varied. In Hogwarts the reactions of the staff was shock and elation. Severus Snape was dead but no one cared especially after reading about the dark mark.
In Wiltshire Draco Malfoy didn't know what to do. If what he was reading was true his father was dead and his mother was annulled her marriage to him.
In Ottery St. Catchpole Molly Weasley was reading the paper in shock. If it was to believed Voldemort was dead and gone and it was Harry Potter who had done it. She needed to talk to Albus and fast.
Around magical Britain everyone realized they where free from the threat of Voldemort and his death eaters the celebrations started in earnest.
In Avalon there where celebrations as well but there was something a little more personal happening for Harry.
They where out on the balcony all of the people that mattered and had come to matter to Harry where there. He looked around and found the laughing face of Hermione as she was in conversation with Neville and Alora.
He swallowed a deep breath and walked over to them a joined them in conversation. After a few minutes he said "Hermione can I have a word?"
"Sure Harry." she replied as she said to Neville and Alora "Excuse us won't you?"
"Not a problem." said Neville.
Walking over to a more secluded area of the balcony they stopped and after a minute of silence she inquired "What is it Harry."
Swallowing Harry rushed out in a most bashful tone "Iwouldliketoaskyoutobemygirlfriend."
Hermione froze as she tried to work out what exactly Harry had rushed out blinking in dawning comprehension she smiled and said "Yes Harry, I will be your girlfriend so long as you will be my boyfriend." she teased.
Smiling Harry scooped Hermione up in a breath taking kiss. When they parted there was a rousing cheer of applause from everyone gathered.
"We knew you could do it Harry." smiled Dan.
"There was never any..." said Emma as she seemed to loose all colour in her face her eyes rolled up into the back of her head and she passed out.
"Mom!" shouted Hermione.
Dan who was standing beside Emma as she passed out caught her and swept her up bridal style and rushed out of the room with her. Heading to medical he could hear everyone starting to follow.
Harry turned and said "Please stay and enjoy yourselves, we shall take care of this." and he rushed to follow
In medical Emma was laid down on a bed and Dan went to work with shaky hands.
Andromeda who had been finishing up some reports in her office came out and took in the scene and said "Dan step away, I 'll take care of Emma."
Dan's head snapped around and he was about to make a retort when he realised that he may have the knowledge to help but being so close to the situation he couldn't make proper informed decisions "Help her please." he said.
Stepping up Andromeda went to work on Emma "I won't let anything happen to her I promise." she said.
It was a nail biting 10 minutes later when Andromeda came out of the medical bay. "She's fine her electrolytes are off and she has some exhaustion but she should be fine now that I know what is wrong."
"What is wrong with my wife?" said an almost desperate Dan.
Hermione, Harry, Sirius and Remus where there offering their support.
Andromeda replied with a small smile saying "She has a condition that will be gone in about 8 months."
Alarmed to the point of panic Dan said "What is wrong with her that is taking 8 months to treat."
Harry had a frown on his face that quickly changed to dawning comprehension.
"Congratulations, your going to be a father Emma is pregnant." said Andromeda with a smile.
At hearing this Dan went weak at the knees "Pre..pregnant?"
"Yes she is 7 weeks along...with twins." replied Andromeda.
"Twins?" he whispered.
"Yes twins boys to be exact. The reason you wife passed out was due to the added strain on her body." replied a smiling Andromeda.
Dan seemed to go into shock and Hermione spoke up "She's going to be OK isn't she?"
"Yes she and the babies will be fine. Now that we are aware of it she just has to increase her caloric intake and she should be fine." replied Andromeda.
"Should be?" inquired Harry.
"No pregnancy is without risk especially when carrying multiple babies but with the advanced medical technologies available to us here in Avalon that should not be a problem." replied Andromeda.
Dan seemed to be stuck on a loop and kept repeating "Twins." over and over again.
Hermione went and knelt beside her father. "Daddy are you OK?"
"What huh...em yeh I mean I guess we knew something like this could happen after we where healed but not now not so soon..." replied a stunned Dan.
"Come on let's get you up and go see Mom." said Hermione as she stood taking his hand.
Allowing himself to be led into the room he and Hermione took up a silent vigil waiting for Emma to wake up.
"Well what do you know twins." said a smirking Sirius.
"Come on let's give them some privacy." said Harry as he turned and led them back to the party. Thinking about it, it was unexpected but not unwelcome especially now as they where finally free of the mad men who has nearly destroyed them all.
When Emma woke and everything was explained she burst into tears they would finally have another baby well babies in their little family. When it was announced that she was carrying twins everyone was ecstatic and a lot of the women seemed to go into mothering mode. This had all of the men very confused until Tonks explained that "You have to remember that until we came to Avalon most of the older women thought they would never get to have any more babies and now here we are with two more on the way for Dan and Emma it's a surprise to them but they have gone into nesting mode."
"To be honest I has seen my Mom giving my Dad some speculative looks of late so it wouldn't surprise me if I get a little brother or sister soon either." replied a snickering Tonks.
Holding his hands up in surrender Sirius replied "Really too much information but I get the point."
"How is everything going on your end Remus." inquired Tonks.
"All the wolves have been brought in and treated and are starting to settle into life here in Avalon. I will be starting to coordinate the vault moves soon but I want to speak to Harry about that first. I have an idea about it but need to check with Harry first." he replied.
"Cool well lets go find him I think he is in ops going over reports." replied Tonks.
"I have to ask when did it become ops and not command?" inquired Sirius.
"That would be down to Alex and the trekkies..." here she snickered "I swear everything is becoming so sci-fi it's funny."
Laughing both Sirius and Remus followed Tonks to ops.
It wasn't after that they entered ops and seeing the hustle and bustle of activity only made them feel accomplished.
One the lower floor the Astria Porta was active and admitting more Furlings. Griphook was there to greet them and he nodded when he noticed Tonks, Sirius and Remus.
Moving along the route to Harry's office they would see he was busy immersed in a pile of data pads.
"Hey Harry how are you?" inquired Sirius.
Looking up Harry smiled and said "I'm good thanks just finishing up here. How are you all?"
"Good thanks." said Tonks as she claimed one of the seats in front of his desk.
"I wanted to ask about the vault transfers I was thinking about rather than transferring everything from the vaults here to the city we just beam Gringott's to one of the biodomes." replied Remus.
Harry thought about it and said "That's an excellent idea Remus...Perhaps we can do it with all of the buildings in the magical world. It would certainly make things easier if we did it that way. I have had scans of the planet done and we are looking at a population of 100 million people that is way more than we can handle living in the city. If we expanded on your idea we can house everyone temporarily and when we return home we can have everything ready in no time at all."
"That's what I was thinking also." nodded Remus.
"OK well seeing as how you have brought the solution to me you can look after everything for us." replied Harry with a smirk.
"Sirius do you have anything for me?" replied Harry.
"I do, it appears that Dumbledore tried to created a horcrux within Fawkes but as he is a phoenix a being of light there is no way it would take. Luna and Xenophillius have removed the bindings placed upon him and it triggered a burning day. He is resting and growing. Hedwig is with him helping him heal." said Sirius.
"That bastard...I'm glad he is dead." replied Tonks.
"I couldn't agree with you more. I have been in contact with Amelia about Molly Ginny and Ron. They have been arrested on charges of theft, collusion and attempted line theft. We won't be hearing from them again." said Harry seriously.
"How is Arthur taking all of this?" inquired a solemn Sirius.
"As well as can be expected. It turns out that the reason she favored Ron and Ginny was they where the children of Pettigrew not Arthur apparently. The have been disowned and Molly has been disavowed as a Weasley." smirked Harry.
"OK so what is left to do?" inquired Remus.
"Well I want to speak to the Hogwarts staff and the ICW. The after that I don't expect to have anything to do with the magical world until we leave. Merlin knows I have enough to do without that on top of everything." replied Harry.
Nodding on agreement Sirius replied "We I have recruits for the Avalon Aurors that have to be trained up."
"OK I will leave that in your hands Sirius. I want to have a full council meeting tomorrow morning. Can you let the others know." said Harry.
"Not a problem." said Remus as he stood to leave with the others following suit.
Thinking about how everything was coming together he had a thought and nearly cursed himself for forgetting about them. He quickly made plans to have everything in place and then turned his attention back to what he was doing
