I own nothing. This is more of a filler chapter.
Not much happened in the coming weeks. The group continued to collect information, resources, allies, and make plans as the others they recruited brought them information from the meetings of both sides. Every week they held a meeting with all of the recruits, usually on Tuesday night. It was one such Tuesday night that the group sat around the small table they'd conjured up after the meeting had finished.
"So, if you can breathe underwater... how long can you stay under before passing out? Does it have a time limit in general or is it like growing gills?" Fred asked innocently.
"The journal described it as a never ending possibility. The only reason I would ever need to surface is for food, but no I don't grow gills." Hermione answered, these questions were common from the twins. They seemed to be the most curious of the group and the others fed off of the answers the twins received.
"But wouldn't that mess with your human body? I mean certain things could happen if you were submerged longer than a few hours." George wondered aloud.
"People don't give you two enough credit, you're smarter than everyone advertises." Trystan stated.
"Why thank you kind sir!" the twins chorused in an over dramatic imitation of house elves. Everyone rolled their eyes at their antics.
"So, how's the planning going?" Bill asked "I mean we know the plan you have so far but it's not complete and I get the feeling it's getting harder on you two."
"It is, in a way, harder. We need to find a way to submit the evidence against Dumbledore, but we have no way to do that after we're all ousted because nobody will listen to us." Corbin admitted
"What if one of us slipped it onto the bottom of the pile of cases up for trial? You know, for after the death eater trials. We could put them there just before the final battle?" Tonks asked
"That could work...unless there are no trials." Corbin agreed hesitantly.
"But what if they toss all pending cases due to the ministry being invaded by death eaters at the moment?" Severus pointed out.
"What if we submitted it while under polyjuice potion as an Auror?" Fred asked
"You are all over thinking this. As you said, this is supposed to be anonymous, so make it a mail room clerk, no need to get an Auror's hair." Luna stated
"That's close to what I was thinking, but what if we submitted it as a piece of mail instead? Just send it all there with an owl. However, we would need to make sure they open it..." Hermione pondered.
"We could spell it so the name is blocked out and you can't see the name until everyone has voted against or for the charges suggested. Then after the proclamation of an unbreakable sentence it will reveal the perpetrator and they will have no choice but to lock him up. Hermione's right, they won't open it if Dumbledore's name is listed anywhere on it." Severus said
"Plus, Dumbledore would be one of the one's voting so they will not be able to hear about how unfair things are from him." Kingsley stated
"It would fit right in. The minister, who we've confirmed as a neutral party, has proposed plans to omit names during the trial voting so there is no prejudice, only fair sentencing." Moody admitted.
"Again, that's if there are trials." Severus muttered
"So we have the plan for Dumbles?" Charlie asked, to which he received hesitant nods all around.
"Now we just need to know where the final battle is to finalize the plan for Voldy and make the evidence folder." Antonin stated.
"I need to get going." Tonks stated "I have a hot date to get ready for, see you guys next Tuesday or whenever I have information!" She called as she ran from the room. Severus began smirking as he looked at Remus.
"So Remus is a hot date now? That's news, and here we thought she would never own up to actually being with him." Rabastan joked, Remus blushed but got up.
"I have to go as well. As she pointed out we have a date to make."
"Don't you mean a date to make it to?" Fred asked
"Sure." He replied, Severus rolled his eyes and Hermione was smiling. The elementals all had interesting looks on their faces and when Remus was gone the others asked them about it.
"Oh you know... nothing really is going on." Severus said
"Yeah, Tonks is only pregnant." Luna said
"That and they're getting married in about an hour." Hermione finished
"WHAT?!" The group exploded. There were many other things passed around as everyone opened up the mental chatting channels and began asking the duo about everything and why they hadn't told them. All they said in reply was thanks a lot to the five founders of their little group of friends.
Everyone was happy while they anticipated the final battle. Nobody knew when it was going to happen or how it would end, who would survive or who would die in the fight. They barley even knew what they were going to do, but they had each other at the moment and that was all that mattered at the moment.
