The trio was in agreement about the plan they had worked on most of last night. The Potter Foundation was going to be a children's charity that focused on the protection of magical children including squibs, muggleborns and even cursed children like werewolves. The idea being that no magically born child should ever suffer for not meeting the expectations of perfection that were so prominent in the wizarding world.

Lily and James had always talked about having brood that rivaled the Weasley clan so a children's charity seemed fitting. The expansion of the idea came with their own experiences. Sonny was quite shocked when Sirius informed her that there was not a department that handled abuse claims and such. Children were the greatest resource to any culture especially a culture that had been ravaged by war to know that the government had no protection in place for these kids hurt Sonny on an almost psychic level.

Sirius had volunteered to donate one of the many Black properties to be used as an orphanage/school for the children. Sonny was going to be the face of the organization as she had an existing relationship with the press and Remus was going to handle the finances as he had become so well respected among the goblin it would make things run much smoother.

They set out to get to work on making the Potter Foundation a reality. They were heading into Gringotts when a dreaded red envelope, a howler, arrived. Her father in a voice as cold as ice demanded that she and Remus come to his office immediately.

They left the bank red faced and embarrassed. He had never even sent a howler when she was in school and she had pulled some stunts during her school years worthy of a telling off from both parents.

She had a good head of steam going when they arrived at her father's office but before she could go off on him he started right in. "Sit down and listen to me you foolish little girl," he ordered as he paced with bits of parchment in his hands. She froze at those words and Remus had to pull her into a seated position fearing the normally composed man's wrath.

It was only when they were seated that they realized Sirius was there as well and seemed to be suffering from the same shock as Sonny.

"This morning I get a letter from my nephew asking me about the properties along the coast. At first I thought maybe he was looking for a place but you just bought that lovely house and then I thought maybe he was trying to recoup money lost during the war. Thinking that I would be acting as his advisor just like I did with my brother I flooed to see what the problem was. He then tells me it is too much to explain and that he needed to find a sitter and he would be over in a few minutes. He left Harry with the aunts and came over here. He just finished telling me your plan and for once it was you who was acting without thinking he was just caught up in the madness," Phineas said while glaring holes into his daughter.

"Father, please be reasonable. Think of all the good we could do and the lives we could save," she implored.

"No you need to be reasonable. The amount of attention you will not only receive from this but the attention it will require how do you think you will be able to keep Harry a secret if you are raising a dozen other children," he said watching as she processed what he told her.

As she realized the truth of his words his anger slipped away and so did her rage. "How could I be so stupid? We, no, I could have put Harry in such danger," Sonny lamented as her anger turned inward.

Both Sirius and Remus attempted to comfort her but she refused it. Sonny never expected perfection from others but she demanded it of herself. It was Phineas who finally broke her self-deprecating rant by taking her face in his hands.

"You act so grown up sometimes I forget how young you really are. At twenty-two, the three of you have been through so much but your still only twenty-two you want to save the world. You have all these grand plans but you need to think smaller. Something more manageable," he told her, "Think it through I will always help you."

Silence fell over the group each lost in thought. Sonny was frighten by her own ambition. How the little idea of a scholarship became this huge thing and she knew that it was her that kept expanding the reaches of the project. She vowed to herself then and there to never let her ambitions put her family in danger. Family was everything at least to some people.

Sirius began to think of different ways to pare down the plan and the various contacts he would need to get ahold of.

"We should go back to the original idea a simple scholarship fund. We can use it as way to check up on the children like Lily and make sure they aren't being treated poorly because of their magic as well as keep an eye on Dumbledore," Sirius said.

Sonny turned to him with her eyes wide and said, "What about the kids like you and Remus? Muggleborns have a bit of protection in the muggle world but there is nothing to protect magical children in magical households."

Remus let out a long suffering sigh as the two bickered back and forth before he spoke, "Sonny, you are the Potter regent. Sirius, you are a former auror and Lord Black and we are sitting in a law office."

"The Potter Foundation becomes the Potter Children's Protection Act," Sonny said smiling, "And you Remus Lupin are a genius."

Phineas sat down with them and together they began to formulate what would become the PCPA. Sonny's knowledge of the muggle system help provide the basis for the department the bill would form. Sirius and Phineas added their legal knowledge while Remus worked out the logicists behind where the children would go if they were abandoned or removed from their parents' custody. Sonny would propose the bill during the next Wizengamot meeting in a month.

There was only one problem her idea would need three nominations before it would be reviewed and put to a vote. Sirius and Melanie were good for one vote each but she was aware that Augusta was of the mind that you didn't interfere with other people's children her fight with Nora at Harry's party proved that. She certainly couldn't count on Dumbledore, if this law passed it would mean Ministry interference at Hogwarts which the old wizard, while he denied it, ruled like his own little fiefdom.

They racked their brains for an ally when Remus and Sonny said at the exact same moment, "Amelia Bones."

Sirius tilted his head to the side confused and looking remarkably like his canine self silently asking for their reasoning.

Before Sonny could explain Remus answered, "She took in her niece Susan after her brother and the rest of the family were slaughtered in a raid. She is also an auror. Aurors will have to work with the new department if one of the new rising stars of the DMLE is willing to back it we may get taken more seriously."

With that thought explained the group broke up as Sonny went home to Harry and to craft the perfect letter to Amelia Bones. Sirius left to work on a list of members who would support the bill and the others stayed behind to work on the actual document.

AN: I rewrote this chapter like five times. Let me know if it is good because I cant tell anymore.
