It's been an age but here is the next chapter. I'll be updating mroe often now as I have more time to do so. Please read and review thanks,Hermione xxx
Dumbledore opened his eyes blinking as the bright lights of the court were shined on his face directly. He never did anything without planning for the worst and this was the worst. He'd be telling them a truth he'd implanted into his brain however it wasn't entirely faultless as they could merely ask him if what he was saying was actually truthful and find out he was again lying that way. There was only so much outsmarting one man could do and his time was running out fast. He could see so many people he wished to still manipulate however he might still be able to sway them as he knew they wouldn't want their light leader in jail. He could play the sweet old man card and sway them all. He'd watched over most of their children over the years and their children had all turned out fine. He did have that in his favour.
However given how incompetent the ministry could be they may not even figure out who he truly was. He saw that Madame Bones had been asked to question him by the minister himself and gulped thickly. Her questioning could be very difficult and he'd need to be very careful indeed. She approached him explaining to everyone present what was going on.
Welcome everyone to today's Wizengamot meeting. We're here to question this man here whom you can all see has impersonated a dead individual a serious crime in our world. For those of you who don't know of very few there is this man is currently impersonating the late James Harold Potter father of Hannah Marie Potter and husband to the late Lillian Celia Potter nee Evans. We are to find out why he's been doing something so sinister among other things.
Sir, can you please tell us who you are?
I can indeed tell you that you're an idiot and that I am most certainly not James Potter but I sure had fun assuming his identity and doing things which he'd never do but only because he was a coward.
What is your name?
My name is Oscar P Smith.
Are you telling me the truth about your name?
No of course I'm not. Yeah like that would be my real name.
Well then please enlighten us as to your real name.
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore. Yes it is I the amazing man before you all.
Are you being serious right now?
Deadly my dear.
Right ok. Please Auror Shacklebolt call off the search for Albus Dumbledore as we have him here in custody. Please Albus can you tell us all why in the name of day you broke the law you yourself wrote about impersonating the dead and it being against the law?
Well I needed to become someone different for reasons of my own and James seemed the right person to use. I mean I could have used Lily but I've never changed into a woman although I'd say it could be fun. I mean I could have a lot of fun with myself sexually if I did but then again that would be boring for someone like me.
Ok why did you need to become someone different?
To teach that bitch Hannah Potter a lesson and that you don't disobey your master no matter what. I am the older and wiser man and that therefore makes me her master in a way. Either way it makes sense to me it doesn't have to make sense to you. She had a life she was never supposed to have and it's my responsibility to make that right. Obviously as an adult I can't force her to live with her family in the muggle world but technically she should have grown up with them away from the fame which has clearly gone to her head. Her father was an asshole who treated Severus Snape like crap all throughout his school years and as a consequence of his quite frankly shit behaviour she has to marry Snape by way of an apology.
What the hell? Did you never think of the fact that neither she or Severus Snape may have wanted this? Our Aurors had to come and save him from a wedding ceremony you were trying to force him into. It was very clear he wanted nothing to do with it which he told us many times. Why did you have Draco Malfoy there who is now an adult himself of course?
He was there because I told him to be there and he knew better then to defy or try to defy me. As for Severus he's an idiot. He deserved compensation for James' unconscionable behaviour; he was just too damn stubborn to accept the type of compensation I had prepared for him. He should have been thanking his lucky stars I was forcing her to marry him and he could get a cheap and easy wife. While we're on the subject of wives she needs to divorce those silly Weasley twins and whoever else she's married to as she'll be marrying Severus, Draco and or whoever I fucking choose for her. No more of this her getting to have choices of her own thing. She was supposed to die at Voldemort's hand but he couldn't even do that properly the idiot. He just had to get himself blown up or whatever the hell happened to him. As she didn't die things were never going to go to plan but they were supposed to go the way I myself planned and that didn't happen now either did it? I mean seriously how can one bitch fail so much? What the hell was with the Weasley choice anyway I mean one would think you'd want luxury instead of poor lifestyled people. It's fucking ridiculous and beyond me if you ask me.
What did Draco Malfoy do to you to deserve this kind of treatment? I mean he did nothing wrong. Please explain yourself where he's concerned.
Well he was rich and just the type of man I wanted for Hannah. I wanted her to have someone whose actually rich and see what it feels like to never have to struggle for anything like she would with those bunch of imbeciles she likes to call husbands. Yes she has her own money but it would never be enough I mean I don't get it. There is nothing wrong with Draco and he's fine because I say he is. My word is gold after all. No one would ever think to question the leader of the light who defeated Grindlewald Albus Dumbledore. I am the best and so of course people should take my word at what it is. No one has ever seriously questioned me outside of school and gotten away with it. I don't mind my staff doing it in school but when it's done outside of school in deference to my wishes I get mad and bloody rightfully so. He should have been happy to have a cheap and easy wife I mean less effort for him of course the stupid bastard couldn't see it the way I wanted him to could he?
What were you hoping to achieve by impersonating James Potter around Hannah Potter today at The Leaky Cauldron?
Well isn't it obvious I wanted to torment her and teach her a lesson for walking out on the wedding I planned for her. No one gets to make a fool of me and get away with it. It didn't go as planned however as she freaked. That bitch is fucking unhinged and should be locked away and as far away from civilization as you can get. Maybe locked away with Draconis and Severus. I didn't think of that which I should have. Well then again there's always another time. Oh don't worry I have no intention of actually harming anyone here I mean none of you did anything wrong so there's no need to do anything to any of you. Besides which it's wasted energy I could use making sure that Severus is where he's meant to be and so on. He doesn't get to have an opinion when I'm helping him out for free. I need to feel like he's satisfied but because I'm helping him do what he doesn't seem to be able to do himself he's become highly embarrassed and ungrateful. He couldn't get himself a woman so I did it for him and he's mortified hence his freaking out and episodes. It's quite frankly ridiculous. You'd swear he was a fucking child the way he's behaving.
Ok, now please explain why you used an unforgivable the Crucio curse on Hannah Marie Potter in The Leaky Cauldron in front of people? Didn't you know you'd be seen by everyone?
Yes I knew it but I didn't care to be honest. Hurting her seemed like the only thing that would make her toe the damn line I set up for her. She won't be so eager to refuse to do my bidding the next time. See I can be just as sadistic as Voldermort when I want to be but I'm not nearly as unhinged or evil. I only do bad to those who have wronged me and not everyone else like he does. Hurting everyone is pointless. Like why hurt everyone when you only need to actually hurt the one whose done something wrong or in this case disobeyed her superior. That's where Tom always failed. Using the Crucio came to me honestly out of nowhere. I've only ever used it a handful of times and all I could think about was hurting her like her father had hurt Severus and so on.
I'll never understand why you do the things you do but then again maybe no one can. Can you please tell everyone why you forced Delores Jane Umbridge to marry you? Word has reached us that you did.
Oh not this bullshit again. On my life and soul I didn't force her to marry me. Someone fed me a potion of some kind to which my office portraits can attest and for reasons unknown to either of us we ended up married with her pregnant. Could I divorce her I would do so in a heartbeat. I don't love her now nor am I capable of loving her. I could try with all my heart but it would always be a half arsed effort. I mean have you seen the troll? And I'm not gorgeous myself. I am better than her though that I can at least say whilst knowing it to be true. Don't bother judging me because I know you all think she looks like a troll too. You can't hide. None of you can. If you're going to judge me do so but don't judge for this as that truly is unreasonable. I'm a good man whose just had a hard life with no one ever listening to him and I honestly grew sick of it. Why should one woman and indeed a man in the case of Severus get to dictate their own lives when I can give them paradise in seconds? That's not one bit logical.
Members of the Wizengamot we've heard his testimony and now we will take an hour's lunch break before we decide what to do with him. I ask you all to think clearly about all he has confessed to. Wizengamot dismissed.
