Hadrian's Pov-Next Day

"Young Master, it's time for you and your guest to wake up." I heard Sebastian call with clear amusement in his voice. I heard groaning from around me as everyone woke up, I yawned and sat only to be handed a cup of tea along with everyone else as they sat up "Now, just what are you four planning?"

"_Planning? What makes you think that we are planning anything?"

"Besides the fact you were all asleep in the same bed, clearly stating that you had woken up after you went to sleep Young Master."

"That doesn't mean anything, Draco had a nightmare and wanted to come to me, and met the twins along the way." I drank some of my tea

"Really? And just what was this nightmare about young Draco?" Sebastian asked, making Draco duck his head

"Something my mother did to me...I don't want to talk about it, father doesn't know about it and he doesn't need to know." Draco replied in a scared tone, making the three of us in the bed look at him in surprise

"You three look surprised, you didn't ask him about his nightmare?" Sebastian asked

"It was none of our business-"

"~He was scared and wanted comfort-"

"From our little brother-"

"_Who are we to deny that?"

"Young Master, your response?" I shrugged

"I was half asleep, he was scared, I didn't see a reason to ask about his nightmare, besides who am I to pry into his past life?" I took another drink as Sebastian seemed to take the response and move on to another topic

"You four should hurry up with your drinks, you need to get ready for breakfast, I need to go fetch something I will be right back." He then left the room and we all turned to look at Draco

"You actually had a nightmare?"

"It would have been a lot worse if the twins hadn't have woken me, anyway I need to go get dressed." Draco said as he finished his tea, along with the twins

"_US too see ya little brother." I nodded to them as they left and finished my own tea, before setting my cup on the trolley will the other three, before heading into the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth, before heading back into my room, just as Sebastian came back in carrying a letter

"You had to fetch a letter?"

"It's from Ciel, I thought you might like to read it while I dress you." I sighed and took the offered letter as I sat on my bed.

Dear Hadrian,

First off I hope everything has been sorted out with Sebastian, and I apologise if I had anything to do with him being off that day. Second I want to thank you for the amazing chess set which hope you will come and enjoy a game with me and some point, thirdly I was asked by your father to come and keep you company today, along with the twins and your god brother, I was just wondering if you knew why he asked? Is there anything I should know about? Is anything wrong? I will be arriving during breakfast, your father already knows of this, I'm not sure if he has told anyone else, but now I have told you, I will be seeing you soon.

Ciel

"Hmm."

"Something wrong Young Master?" Sebastian asked as he handed me another cup of tea as he had finished getting me dressed

"Ciel is coming today."

"Oh, did he say why?"

"Father asked him to, to keep me, the twins and Draco company today, I think he might be worried."

"Ciel? Worried? What possible reason could there be for him to be worried?"

"Father didn't tell him any reason for him to be coming today, he'll be arriving during breakfast this morning...do you know of a reason why my father would ask that he come today?"

"Why would I know more than you would my Lord?"

"Because you're older than me, making you more reliable than me."

"But any information I have, you would know."

"And how would I know?"

"I can't lie to you Master, but I can with hold information, not that I would, you can order me to tell you everything I know." I smirked "But that was exactly what you wanted me to tell you wasn't it?"

"I have no idea what you are talking about." I drained the rest of my tea "I believe it is time to head to breakfast."

"Of course Young Master." I handed my cup to Sebastian and stood up "I trust you can make your own way there."

"Of course, you're not coming along this morning?"

"I will be along later in to the meal, I have to clean up the trolley and then meet our breakfast guest and bring him to the dining hall when he arrives." I nodded and left the room, I walked down to the dining hall, meeting the twins and Draco along the way, though Draco was with his father and Severus

"You don't need to do any potions work today Hadrian." Severus said just before we entered the dining hall

"Why not?"

"You need a break after doing all your first year work yesterday I don't want you to stress yourself out, so no potions today."

"Alright." We all entered the dining hall and took our seats

"No Sebastian this morning Hadrian?" Father asked

"He's cleaning up the trolley from this morning and waiting for our breakfast guest."

"What breakfast guest?" Lucius asked

"I invited Ciel to come spend the day with the children, while we're out today." Father answered

"Where are you going?" Draco asked

"We have some business at the Ministry today, that we need to take care of." Remus answered with a soft smile

"Nothing to worry about." Sirius continued with a smile, I glanced at Draco and gave him a look, he rolled his eyes in response, making me chuckle

"Something funny Hadrian?" Dad asked, I shook my head as food appeared on the table

"Nothing in particular."

"Mind sharing?"

"Nope." I then began to fill my plate along with everyone else, then there was silence with everyone eating, until the door opened we all turned to look to see Sebastian enter with Ciel. Sebastian took his place behind my chair as father stood up to greet Ciel

"Ah, Ciel, so glad you could come." Father said, I snickered at the look on Ciel's face

"I don't know why you asked me to come during breakfast, I don't eat."

"Yes well, the rest of us have to leave now, that is why I asked you to come now." I looked around the table I saw all the adult plates were empty of food, I frowned when everyone stood up, but quickly made my face straight when Father turned to look at me.

"Sebastian and Ciel are in charge, you four are to behave got that?" We all nodded and they then all left and Ciel came and sat down next to me, there was a few minutes of silence in with the four of us finished eating before Sebastian spoke up

"They are gone now, you can ask your questions Ciel." Sebastian said making me look at Ciel in question

"What is going on? I know you already know, spill it."

"Severus is on trial today."

"I knew you four knew something when you all were asleep in the same bed last night." Sebastian commented

"And? We had every right to know, Severus is family, family stick together, no matter what."

"_That's right." The twins called

"What were we going to be told if Severus got locked up?"

"I don't-"

"_Lie! We know you know we saw you!" Sebastian raised an eyebrow at them and I turned to glare at him

"You can't lie to me remember, you said that yourself."

"He has a point Sebastian, you could never lie to me either, I wouldn't let you." Ciel commented from his seat

"Very well, they were going to tell you that he had gone on a long trip and you wouldn't see him for a while."

"The punishment for being a death eater is Azkaban for life!" Draco yelled "Did they really expect us to believe that? If it weren't for the twins we would never had known."

"And just how did the twins find out?" Ciel asked

"_That's our secret, what else do you think we do all day?"

"Pranks normally, with Sirius involved sometimes Remus."

"_Nope."

"What do you plan on doing Young Master?" Sebastian asked

"We're going to the Ministry , Severus isn't being locked away, not my family, not again." Sebastian sighed

"Very well."

"Let's get going." Ciel smirked, we all stood up and left the dining hall, our cloaks were in the entry way along with Sebastian's coat, we each put them on and Ciel held out a locket I raised an eyebrow "Your father knew you'd figure it our eventually, or that you would order Sebastian to tell you so he gave me this, to take us to the court room." We each took a hold of the chain and Ciel said the password to activate it, I felt a tug on my navel as we were sucked into a tube and spat out again, the twins and Ciel manage to land on their feet, Draco and I not so lucky, the twins caught Draco whereas Sebastian caught me. Ciel stuck the chain into his pocket and we took seats at the back of the court room, but father had already spotted us, he just smile fondly and shook his head.

The trial was long and Severus was question several time but never given veritaserum, Dumbledore was the one questioning him, I kept frowning at the questions. Finally it came to the end of the trial but before the Wizengamot could give a response the minister asked if anyone in the crowd had anything to say or asked, and was asked to raise their hand. I stuck my hand up

"You at the back why don't you come down and ask?" the minister asked

"Be careful Young Master." Sebastian whispered, I nodded and walked down to the front, not missing the gasps of my name

"What is it you want to ask Young Hadrian?" the minister asked, I smiled at him

"I want to know, why Dumbledore isn't being questioned at well, he is the one accusing my Godfather after all, but after the first war he defended my Godfather, why the change of heart now?"

"That is a good question Hadrian." The minister responded

"His name is-"

"Before you even start on that Headmaster I have a birth certificate to prove my name is Hadrian from Gringotts, and Goblins never lie, and neither do their documents."

"He is right Albus, but his question brings up some of my own questions, but to start with why did you defend Mr Snape after the first war?"

"I truly believe he was on the light side, but I found out he was not." Dumbledore responded

"After breaking into my home, trying to take me away from my family, and not to mention starting a fight in the middle of our dining hall, which you lost and got yourself and your followers taken away, is that really what the 'Light' side has come to? Kidnapping a 12 year old boy for you to control?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about my boy."

"Don't call me that, I have no relation to you at all, and I know everything Dumbledore, I know you placed my with the Dursley's, and abusive family that I have no relation to what so ever, you planned the incident in my first year at Hogwarts and the second incident, that I almost died in, you wouldn't send the students home after you found out there was a basilisk in the school and when I was down there, you sent the sorting hat with your phoenix to help me, you're lucky I was able to pull the sword of Gryffindor from the hat otherwise I would have been killed, just like Ginny Weasley was, you let a first year die in Hogwarts, she was only 11, and then you had their family blame me."

"You should have been faster-Drat."

"Severus saved me down in that chamber after I killed the basilisk, if he hadn't have come I would have been dead."

"Why are you here standing up for him? He's nothing but a death eater so is Lucius."

"Severus and Lucius are family, family stick together, no matter what... plus death eaters no longer exist, have you checked his arm?" I turned to look at the table were father, Severus and Lucius were sat. Severus rolled up his sleeve to reveal clear pale skin, there was no mark. Lucius did the same thing, there was no mark "not to mention this trial isn't even about Lucius, and it shouldn't be about Severus either, there is no dark side, there is no death eaters, there is just you who thinks that there is, the minister already knows that Voldomort no longer exists, so why is this trial happening? There is no evidence against Severus anymore, you can't hold death eater over his head because he isn't one, and none of you can send him away because I won't let you, I have a bigger case for you anyway."

"Oh yes? And what is that?" Dumbledore demanded

"Albus, don't speak to him like that, I no longer see you as the same man you once were, Hadrian what is it you want to tell us?" the minister asked

"I have proof that, Albus Dumbledore murdered Lily Evans, kidnapped James Potter and tried to murder me."

"What proof?!" Dumbledore yelled

"My memories, I remember that night, very well."

"Are you willing to share your memories?" I nodded

"I will as well, I was there that night as you already know minister." Father commented as he stood up and came to stand next to me after the minister nodded, a pensive was brought out and our memories were put in starting with me and the memory appeared above the minister for everyone to see

-Memory- 3rd person-(Daddy-Tom+ papa-James)

-James Potter, just finished getting one year old Hadrian ready for bed and was carrying him up the stairs to his room, when he arrive he placed Hadrian in the cot on his back and gave him his favourite stuffed wolf and his blanket that he slept with

"Daddy will be home soon, and hopefully you'll already be asleep, you've had a long day today, you've been out with uncle Lucy and uncle Sev with Draco, they took you to the park, uncle Moony and uncle Padfoot took you to Diagon Alley and got you another stuffed animal and then papa took you back into Diagon Alley for dinner and ice cream." James explained in a soft voice to a tired baby boy

"Papa." Hadrian replied sleepily, rubbing his eyes with the hand that wasn't cuddling the wolf, making James smile

"I'll stay right here until you fall asleep." Then there was an explosion, that made James stand up and pull out his wand to protect Hadrian, just as Albus Dumbledore walked through the door to the nursery followed by Lily Evans "What are you two doing here?" James practically hissed

"Papa?" Hadrian called out, knowing that Hadrian was stood up against the side of the cot James put his free hand behind him for Hadrian to hold, which he took immediately

"Why we're here for you and little Harry." Dumbledore responded

"His name is Hadrian Dumbledore, and what do you mean both of us?" James asked

"Well, you two are Tom's whole world, so it is natural that we take you both to win this war." Dumbledore responded

"What war? There is no war, it's just you and your deluded mind, not to mention you've tripped the wards, Tom will be back at any moment."

"But he won't be here for long, Stupefy." The spell sent from Dumbledore's wand his James in his chest, making him drop to the floor, letting go of Hadrian's hand making him cry out

"Papa! Papa! Papa!"

"Oh be quite you little brat." Lily Spat at Hadrian as she walked over and picked him up from his crib, with Dumbledore stood behind her

"Papa! Papa!"

"James?! James where are you?!" Tom called from downstairs, Hadrian recognising his voice started to cry out again

"Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!" seconds later Tom was in the doorway of the nursery, he spotted James on the floor, still feeling his magic, knew he was alive, before focusing on Lily who was holding Hadrian at arm's length with a face full of disgust "Daddy! Daddy!" Hadrian called out, struggling in Lily's hold trying to get to Tom

"Hello Tom." Dumbledore greeted

"Give me back my son." Tom demanded

"Don't you mean my son?" Lily asked

"No, my son."

"Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!" Hadrian cried again, Lily Gave him a look of disgust and all but dropped him on the floor, allowing Hadrian to crawl over to Tom, to picked him up when he reached him "Daddy." Hadrian said in a content tone

"I'm here now everything's going to be okay." Tom responded as Hadrian snuggled into his shoulder

"Daddy, Papa."

"I know son."

"You stupid Bitch, why did you do that?!" Dumbledore yelled making Hadrian whimper and Tom to tighten his hold on his baby boy.

"He was irritating me, I didn't want to hold the brat of the Dark Lord."

"Avada Kedavra." Dumbledore yelled aiming his wand at Lily, Tom covered Hadrian's eyes so he wouldn't see, at the spell hit her centre chest and she dropped to the ground, Tom then set Hadrian down next to James and pulled out his wand "You're too slow Tom, Avada Kedavra." Dumbledore said but this time had his wand pointed at Hadrian

"No!" Unable to stop the spell he watched as the spell bounced off a shield and went straight for him, his body destroyed

"Daddy! Papa Daddy gone! Papa Daddy gone!" Hadrian yelled while pushing James's body as if he was trying to shake him awake

"Your Papa isn't waking up brat, and you won't see him again." Dumbledore said as he came to pick Hadrian up, but Hadrian screamed and clung to James's clothes as he was grabbed around the waist and forcefully removed from James before being carried from the house "Now time to make you forget, Obliviate." The spell hit Hadrian making him fall asleep, when he woke up he was at the Dursley's with a scar on his forehead. -end memory-

Hadrian's Pov-(Tom will be dad from now on and James will be Papa)

By the end of the memory I had tears rolling down my face.

"That's everything I remember, I had the charms removed from myself, letting me remember everything." The minster nodded at me seeming like he was too shocked for words, Dumbledore was being restrained and dad had a hand on my shoulder. Dad put his memories into the pensive and they were the same as mine, apart from he didn't have the part I was taken away.

"James could hear every word that was said as well, I don't think it necessary to put my son through that again." Dad said

"Of course not, all charges against Severus Snape are dropped, with the Ministry's apologises and 100 galleons compensation." The minister said banging his gavel before turning to Dumbledore "Albus Dumbledore, I hereby charge you with murder of Lily Evans, and the kidnapping of Hadrian Riddle and James Potter, you are to be stripped of your titles and your place as Headmaster will be taken over by your deputy and since Minerva McGonagall was stripped of her place as punishment that falls to Severus Snape, until a replacement can be found and if Severus want to back down the replacement can take up the post."

"But the school needs a potions Master, the children need a potions teacher."

"I'm sure Severus is quite capable of running a school and teaching Potions as well, you will be placed in a holding cell until further punishment can be decided court is adjourned." Everyone began to file out of the room, but Papa came rushing over to dad and I, pulling me into a tight hug

"My little boy." James said as he tightened his hold as I wrapped my arms around him

"Papa, Papa I'm so sorry about everything."

"You don't have to be sorry about anything, it was my fault I should have been able to see past the contract, and see that my little boy is grown up enough to make choices on his own, choices to save his life, choices so I would see him again." I felt another set of arms encircle us, I looked up to see dad smiling down at me, before he kissed my forehead

"My family is all back together, that is all that matters now." Dad said before he gave us both a final squeeze before pulling away from them only to be hugged by the twins, making Dad and Papa join in again "My whole family." Dad said making the twins look up at him, only for them to be kissed on the forehead by both Dad and Papa, making them smile before they both kissed me on the forehead at the same time before we all pulled away only for me to get hit over the back of the head by Severus

"Ouch, what was that for?"

"For coming here, for ordering Sebastian to tell you, and for getting involved with something that wasn't your business." Severus responded

"One, I didn't order Sebastian, the twins told me and Draco, two Ciel brought us after dad gave him a Portkey-"

"You what?" Severus demanded

"Do you really think the kids would have believe that something wasn't wrong Severus? Or the idea to tell them you'd gone on a trip? How long would have that lasted before they got suspicious? And I knew the twins had found some secret tunnels in the house, what else do you think they do all day? So they need a way to get here when they did figure it out." Dad answered

"And three, you're family, family stick together no matter what, I wasn't going to let you get locked away because of Dumbledore, when he had done worst that you."

"Great thinking on that by the way." Lucius commented

"Don't encourage him Lucy."

"Don't fight against him Sev."

"And don't argue with each other, can we not celebrate the fact Dumbledore is out of our lives and the fact you are not in Azkaban and the Headmaster or Hogwarts?"

"Wait you already knew about this? I only told Sebastian last night when he came to drop your work off, which by the way is far better than last time and brilliant work on the extra essay as well, so how did you find out so soon?"

"I told you uncle Sev, the twins told me." Sev groaned

"There's a hidden room in my office and the twins found it." That made everyone around us laugh or chuckle

"_Mischief Managed."
