Umbridge Visits Durmstrang

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter.

-OOOOO-

Rita Sat on the floor looking astonished.

"You have no business using your Animagus to spy on people!" said Viktor.

"A reporter does what she has to do to get her story," said Rita.

"I will make you a one-way Portkey to the offices of the Daily Prophet," said Viktor. "You will use it to go home and you will not come back. If you do come back I will have you arrested and sent to the Nurremgard Prison."

Viktor picked up a ruler and made it into a Portkey. Rita vanished in a blue glow. That would hopefully end her meddling.

-OOOOO-

A few days later during a nice spring afternoon Harry was teaching Defense Spells out by the Durmstrang Quidditch Pitch. He had successfully taught the Patronus Charm to some advanced students who were having difficulty with it. Harry was reminiscing the Days when he had taught that Charm to Dumbledore's Army. Just as he was getting it going Umbridge had broken up the session and Dumbledore had to flee. He wondered how well his friends would do if they ever needed the Patronus Charm at Hogwarts. He feared that day would come. Ginny, Luna and Ron and many of the others had performed the Charm in practice. Could they do it to handle a Dementor?

"What's the matter?" asked Hilda.

"I was thinking about my friends back at Hogwarts," said Harry. "They were mastering the Patronus Charm when Professor Umbridge broke up our session. I don't know if they have practiced at all on their own. I don't know where they can practice."

"Perhaps Hagrid could go a ways into the dark forest with them and they could practice there," said Hilda.

"How did you know about the Dark Forest?" asked Harry.

"This," said Hilda pulling out a copy of Hogwarts a History. "I've also talked with our two Ravenclaw refugees and Joseph Diggory."

-OOOOO-

This afternoon was about to become very memorable. There was a blue glow and Umbridge appeared and immediately threw a clipboard away. She walked up to Harry.

"Potter end this nonsense and come back with me now or your friends will suffer consequences!" threatened Umbridge.

Harry immediately Stupified her. His classmates got Viktor Krum. Viktor immediately called for the Bulgarian Aurors. As Umbridge revived she was handcuffed and arrested. The group went to Viktor Krum's office.

"You have come to Bulgaria on and illegal Portkey!" said the Auror. "You have threatened Harry Potter who is here under asylum. Is there anything else Potter?"

"Yes," said Harry. "She has threatened my friends will suffer consequences. That obscure bracelet she is wearing is used to control Dementors. I think she intends to put them in Azkaban until I return and accept her punishment which will likely be having my soul sucked by a Dementor. You should remove that bracelet and if you decide to let her go the bracelet stays here. We need to contact Minister Fudge. She was not supposed to even send an Owl her much less come on a Portkey."

"Miss Umbridge," said the Auror, "we have very strict regulations about Portkeys. Very few can authorize the creation of a Portkey."

"Excuse me," said Harry, "but she dropped a clipboard right after she materialized. I do believe it is the Portkey set to go back to Hogwarts when picked up. We need to levitate it somewhere where it will not cause trouble."

Three boys were sent out to levitate the clipboard to Viktor's office. Just as they got to it a second year wizard picked it up and vanished in blue light. They ran back to Viktor to tell him a student was missing and probably at Hogwarts.

-OOOOO-

The Durmstrang wizard found himself in a strange office with pink walls and plates with cats that moved on them. He realized he had foolishly grabbed a Portkey. The voices outside were speaking English, British English. He knew about Hogwarts and the situation there. He did not want to be at the mercy of Delores Umbridge. He drew his wand. There door opened and some British wizards in Hogwarts robes entered lead by a blond wizard with a drawl. All of them had silver badges with an "I" on them.

"What are you doing in the High inquisitor's Office?" demanded the blond wizard.

"I am not from here. Someone appeared on the grounds of my school and dropped this clipboard. When I picked it up I found myself here. I am not trying to cause trouble at Hogwarts. I did not even want to come here."

"Where are you from?" asked the blond wizard."

"Durmstrang and I just want to go back." said the young Bulgarian.

"The High Inquisitor will decide that when she comes back! Take him to the Dungeons until then," said the blond wizard.

"Stupify! Stupify! Stupify!" chanted the Bulgarian.

Draco Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle lay on the floor Stupified.

"One of the rest of you take me to whoever is in charge here." said the Bulgarian.

Two of them took the Bulgarian to Professor McGonagall.

He told Professor McGonagall his story.

"You must go back but I imagine you are hungry. Send Weasley and Granger here. Then you can go your way." said the Professor.

The Squad people found Ron and Hermione and sent them to Professor McGonagall's office.

"This wizard is from Durmstrang. Take him to the Great Hall and get him what he wants while I work out getting him home," said Professor McGonagall.

Ron and Hermione took the Bulgarian to the Gyiffindor Table. They traded stories as they ate.

The young wizard soon found he was a celebrity. People wanted to know about Harry and Durmstrang.

The young wizard got a few mouthfuls of food in.

Professor McGonagall came to the Gryffindor Table.

"You are going back on a Muggle airplane. You will be taken to Heathrow in the morning and put on a plane. Bulgarian Aurors will take you the rest of the way. For tonight you'll be in Gryffindor Tower. We'll put you in Harry's bed. I would have Portkeyed you back but the Portkey laws in your country are very strict. Enjoy your stay."

Then Professor McGonagall stepped up to the high table podium.

"I have and announcement. Professor Umbridge has been detained at Durmstrang. I am assuming control of the school until she comes back."

"I hope they throw her is Nurremgard!" yelled a Slytherin wizard.

The other students cheered.

"SILENCE!" called Professor McGonagall. "Finish your meal. You need your strength. Draco Malfoy, please see me in my office right after the meal."

-OOOOO-

After supper, Draco went to professor McGonagall's office.

"Sit down, Draco. Professor Umbridge has been arrested in Bulgaria. She will probably be back but while she is away I am suspending all Inquisitorial Squad activity. Remove your prefect badge and your Inquisitorial Squad badge and give them to me." said Professor McGonagall.

She collected the badges and put them into and envelope and labeled it "Draco Malfoy".

"Go to Professor Snape and have him come to me now. You are dismissed Mr. Malfoy."

Draco Malfoy went down and angrily told Professor Snape about his badges and that Professor McGonagall wanted to see him.

A little later Professor Snape came to Professor McGonagall's office and a furious Lucius Malfoy was with him.

"Lucius you will wait in the hall until I talk to Professor Snape," said Professor McGonagall with a stern look.

"Severus I am suspending the Inquisitorial Squad. They are to come to my office and hand in their badges tonight. Until and if professor Umbridge comes back there will be no Inquisitorial Squad activity. Who is confined in the dungeons?"

"No one," said Severus.

"Go and send Lucius in!" ordered Professor McGonagall. "I'll talk to him next."

Lucius stepped in.

"Lay your snake cane on my desk. I know it has a wand inside. I don't want to be on the receiving end of a magical accident." said Professor McGonagall, pulling the cane toward herself.

"First the Bulgarian humiliates my son. Then after he is sorted out it the hospital wing you humiliate him. I am protesting to Cornelius," said Lucius.

"That Umbridge woman is crazy!" said Professor McGonagall. "She is going to get your son sent to Azkaban. I don't think that is what you want. I was opposed to making you son a prefect because he is a bully. He is mean and prejudiced. Umbridge is making him into a candidate for Azkaban."

"She went to Durmstrang on an illegal Portkey to attempt to force Potter to come back. She has been arrested there and I hope they send her to Nurremgard and put her in a cell right next to Gellert Grindelwald where she belongs! Pick up your cane and get out."

Lucius left and the inquisitorial Squad filed in an gave up their badges. Pansy Parkinson was also relieved of her prefect badge.

A tired looking Cornelius Fudge walked into professor McGonagall's office.

"Why are you defying my undersecretary?" asked Fudge.

"Your undersecretary is under arrest in Bulgaria," said Professor McGonagall. "She traveled over there with an illegal Portkey, dropped it on the ground and tried to threaten Potter into coming back. Potter stunned her and the Bulgarian Aurors have her under arrest. "

Fudge left without comment.

-OOOOO-

Umbridge was taken to a Bulgarian Ministry holding cell. The Aurors were not sure what to do with her. She was booked for traveling on an illegal Portkey and attempted kidnapping.

The next day the Bulgarian Wizengamot arraigned Umbridge.

She was fasted to a defendant's chair with magical chains.

The Bulgarian Mister of magic called the meeting to order.

"Inquiry into alleged offences by Delores James Umbridge now a resident of the Hogwarts Castle in Scotland, Great Britain," said the Minister in English.

"The accused is charged with the use of an illegal Portkey and of attempted kidnapping. Miss Umbridge are you aware of the Portkey laws in this country?" asked the Minister.

"I made the Portkey under my authority as Undersecretary to Cornelius Fudge Minister of Magic," said Umbridge.

"A Portkey has to be legal where it is made and where it is going. You did not break British law to make it but you did break Bulgarian law."

"Even worse you have threatened to cause harm to Harry Potter's friends. Can you deny this?"

"Naughty children must be punished!" said Umbridge. "That is all I have to say."

"Will Harry Potter come forward please?" said the Minister.

Harry testified of Umbridges treatment of the himself and the Hogwarts students and of her threats if he did not go back with her.

"Umbridge do you have anything else to say?" asked the Minister.

"No," said Umbridge.

"You are fined one thousand British galleons for the illegal Portkey. You are fined ten thousand British galleons for attempting to abduct Mr. Potter. Both fines must be paid before you go back to Great Britain. After the fines are paid you'll be put on Muggle transportation to Edinburgh, Scotland and you can make your way back to Hogwarts from there. Your Dementor Control Bracelet will stay here."

"I've got a school to run." protested Umbridge.

"Then I'd suggest you contact the Gringotts Goblins and get your fine money." sent here said the Minister.

Umbridge was allowed to contact Gringotts and arrange for her fine money to be sent to Bulgaria and was returned to Bulgarian Ministry holding.

Abused Underage Wizard Documents were prepared for all of Dumbledore's Army.
-OOOOO-

Meanwhile Professor McGonagall took over Hogwarts. With his popularity waning and having no one else to appoints Fudge decided to let Professor McGonagall run Hogwarts until Umbridge came back.

He had demanded that Bulgaria return her but to no avail.

The goblins took Umbridge's fine money from her vault and put it on wizarding shipping for Bulgaria. It was about half the contents of her vault.

After about a week the money arrived and Umbridge was put on a Muggle Plane for Edinburgh. She walked to a secluded place and Apparated back to Hogwarts.

She pieced the Inquisitorial Squad back together and restored Draco and Pansy's prefects status.

She never had control of Hogwarts like she'd had. Yaxley had been taken away by Fudge and Dawlish though he sided with the Ministry was very weak without Yaxley.

Angry students ganged up on Dawlish and took out their anger. He fled. Kingsley Shacklebolt was sent to replace him but he did little. The students did not go after him.

Umbridge demanded four Aurors sympathetic to Fudge.
