Dursley Dealings

With nothing better to do, Harry and group trained in their spare time, and managed to fit in some relaxation time when they could. Luna and Susan had begun to plan Harry and Hannah's baby's shower.

"Knowing the number of people that will be coming, we better hold it in the Room of Requirement" Susan said.

"Who is on the list?" Luna asked, looking up from wrapping a small stuffed teddy bear.

"Lets me just say that there's loads" Susan replied. She was about to say more when Harry and Hannah walked into the sitting room. They had been to see Madame Pomfrey for a check-up, and also because Harry wanted some pictures to show Tonks next time they met. Susan quickly hid the lists she had been working on.

"How is the little one?" asked Neville. He was writing a letter to his parents but put it aside as Harry passed him one of the pictures.

"Pomfrey says he's alright" Hannah said. She sat down gently as by now she had just over a month to go before she was due, and the cravings had hit Hannah with a force that had to be reckoned with.

"Have you thought of a name yet?" asked Luna.

"We've come up with a few names" Harry said, then began to list them. "Jean-Luc, Benjamin, Daniel, Rupert, Sirius and James" and Harry went a little quiet on the last two names.

"You're going to use all of them?" asked Susan.

"No stupid" Hannah said, and threw a cushion at her friend. "We're going to pick a name when he's born" and then Hannah resumed eating the large bag of snacks that seemed to follow her round the castle. Actually it did after Harry had charmed the bag to do so.

"Any idea on the date?" Susan said, returning fire as she asked.

"Not really, some time in the summer she thinks" Hannah replied, then yawned as she stood up and stretched. "I'm going to have a nap. Don't wake me unless Voldemort is here and wanting to see my baby's pictures" and Hannah trudged up the stairs slamming the door to the dorm as she did so.

"Are you ready?" asked Harry, and the other three nodded keenly. "I told McGonagall what I'm doing and that you're with me" he went on as he picked up his wand from the coffee table. After putting the sword in its scabbard and attaching it to his belt, he put his wand in to the holster that Tonks had given him and the others after they had rescued Luna's dad. He seemed to be doing fine, though had had a setback when he thought an Apple Pie was actually an attempt to kill him.

"You certain we can apparate into their front room?" Luna asked.

"Very certain" Harry replied, as they snuck quietly out of the tower, and made their way to the grounds.

"Wotcha" Tonks said, as she and two Aurors waited for them. Harry handed over one of the headsets for them to listen into the upcoming confrontation, in order that Tonks and the Aurors knew when to make their appearance.

"Remember to pop in when you hear the key word" Harry said, as a trio of cracks could be heard from behind the Ministry officials. Harry peered round the side of them to see who it was. "Ah, Griphook. I'm glad you could make it before we left" and Griphook shook Harry's hand.

"After what you have done for us this is the least we can do" Griphook said, taking one of the offered headsets.

"And one, two three" Harry said, and they party left for Number 4, Privet Drive. As soon as they could, Tonks, the Aurors and the Goblins hid in the nearby bushes, while Harry, Susan, Luna and Neville completed the short hop into the front room. It caused the occupants to scream in shock, but Harry kept totally calm even with Vernon coming towards him with a look that could melt steel.

"Freak!" he thundered. "Get out of my house!" he added.

"Actually I have a message for you" Harry said, as his robes shifted to show the sword and his wand. Petunia and Dudley whimpered and hid behind the sofa with the TV blearing out loud. It was stopped by Neville blowing it up making all three muggles jump.

"I DON'T HAVE TO TALK TO YOU, YOU ARE A FREAK!" Vernon said, and actually raised a fist to him as if to hit Harry and the others.

"And you" Harry said, and he was really enjoying this next bit, "Are under arrest" and Vernon went super hot red and drew his fist back.

"I'll do it" Susan said.

"Thanks" Harry said, as he was being slowly strangled by his uncle. Luna and Neville tried to use magic, but the blood wards worked against them so they resorted to trying to prise his hands off Harry's neck.

"Babylon" Susan said into the mic on the headphone, "Repeat: Babylon" and Tonks popped into the living room.

"I suggest you unhand him" she said icily, turning her hair a vivid red. The Aurors followed the Minister seconds later. Petunia and Dudley tried to make their escape but got stopped by Vellouette and Rowling, both Aurors wearing full armour.

"That" Griphook said as he came in, "Is an excellent suggestion. It is one I suggest that you follow. I would personally let you go to prison, but my guards have other ideas I fear" he added and clicked his fingers and two Goblins in full armour came in. Each wore goblin armour, swords, a small shield, a knife, another sword and each held a long pike with a mean looking spike on the top. The effect was intimidating to all three Dursley's.

"As my Harry says, you are all under arrest" Tonks said.

"On what charges?" spluttered Vernon. His mind was racing with thoughts of what his work colleagues might say if they found out he had been arrested, or if convicted his pension might be lost. Vellouette and Rowling brought Petunia and Dudley to stand next to Vernon at wand point, and then took up position at the kitchen door and the lounge doors.

"Vernon Dursley, Petunia Dursley and Dudley Dursley, you are under arrest on the following charges: Child Neglect, Child Abuse, Theft, Fraud, Aiding and Abetting a criminal, and the most serious of all charges" Tonks said. The young woman was barely containing the fury that was building inside her.

"And what is that?" asked Petunia.

"You harmed Harry Potter" Griphook finished for Tonks.

"Teaching that…….. that freak a lesson in obeying his betters is an offence?" shrilled Petunia. Tonks took some parchment out of her pocket, and signed her name at the bottom of it.

"It just became one" she smiled sweetly and calmly as anybody. "Now for the number of prisoners we have to have some more Aurors – two to a prisoner, but theres none available" Tonks said. She made a great show of patting her robes and pulled out four silver badges. Tonks looked at the teens, "Care to join?" she asked holding them out.

"Yes please" they said simultaneously, and after pinning their badges onto their robes they took the Dursley's away to Azkaban. Using their connections, Tonks had acquired the use of a muggle police van, and the neighbours watched as the strangely dressed people put them into the van, then drive away in the van and two police cars. The neighbours assumed the reason for the strangely dressed people was down to some Anti-Terror squad, why else would you have such odd looking weapons?
