Ch. 41
Chuya Chang
Dolores was marching back to the castle to confront the one wizard she despised with a passion. The evil toad of a woman had been dragged by the angry centaurs as punishment for insulting them into provocation. Once the toad reached her office door in her classroom, she peaked in and spotted a familiar asian woman sitting on a chair in front of her desk.
"Chuya?! Wh-What a s-s-surp-p-prise!" Dolores exclaimed, trying to conceal her collywobbles with little success.
"Beat it, you filthy toad!" Chuya growled once she turned her attention to the undersecretary. "How in the hell do you explain leaving the students here all defenceless, other than your shit-whole of a group of select suck-up students in Slytherin?"
"That's classified!" snapped Dolores.
"Bullshit!" Chuya retorted. "You even threatened my daughter to quit associating with Harry or you'd fire me. Harry was looking out for his fellow students and teaching them proper defensive magic. You and the other corrupt ministry officials tried to sweep all that under the bloody rug and slander poor Harry."
"If the brat would've quit lying…" Umbridge tried speaking.
Chuya quickly got up and angrily smacked the toad across the face. Then she grabbed her by the ear and began dragging the toad behind her. Chuya began leading Umbridge through a conjured door behind the toad's desk. The door led to a spiral staircase that seemed to go on forever, since Chuya wouldn't tell the toad how far down they were going. Dolores seethed in pain every time Chuya tugged on her ear, especially if she tried slowing down. After ten to fifteen minutes of climbing down the stairs, the two ministry women reached another door, with Chuya hastily opening it and briskly entering while still dragging the evil toad behind her. Dolores looked around and saw Harry and Cho keeping watch over Draco, Lucius, Severus, Cornelius, and Albus (all of whom were tied up in magic suppression rope). As soon as Umbridge was tied up in magic suppression rope, Chuya began pacing back and forth in front of the adults in an angry manner with her hands behind her back.
"Wh-What're we all here…?" Albus tried asking the angry Chang matriarch, his collywobbles highly noticeable.
"SILENCE, YOU OLE COOT!" Chuya thundered at Dumbledore.
The terrified adults and one teen before Chuya all cowered in amplified fear. With the rope tied around them, there was no way to escape (especially with Harry and Cho keeping an annoyingly close watch). Cho saw her mother pacing back and forth again before stopping in front of Dumbledore (who began sweating profusely).
"Since you were the first to speak out of turn, Albus, you've earned the honour of being the first to get your bloody arse ripped by me!" Chuya growled before proceeding to holler in his face. "HOW CAN YOU BE HAPPY WITH HARRY BEING TREATED LIKE UTTER SHIT, YOU MANIPULATIVE OLE COOT? HARRY TOLD MY DAUGHTER EVERYTHING SINGLE THING ABOUT HOW TERRIBLE HIS LIFE HAS BEEN, AND SHE PASSED THAT INFORMATION TO ME! ONE OF THE HOUSE ELVES HELPED OUT AND FOUND IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE ON PARCHMENT ABOUT YOU HAVING BEEN GIVING LOYALTY POTIONS TO MINERVA AND POPPY TO IGNORE HARRY AND OBEY YOUR NOT-SO-WISE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE LONGEST TIME. THEY EVEN HAD TO GO TO ST. MUNGO'S TO GET THOSE POTIONS FLUSHED OUT OF THEIR SYSTEM!"
"Now, now, Chuya, let's not get over…!" Albus replied, trying to 'reason' with Chuya when she held the documents up in his face.
"Keep your foolish policies to yourself!" Chuya growled. Then she turned her attention to Lucius to rant to him, "You are just despicable for raising your son to be a bully, and you use threatening means of persuasion to get those stupid laws passed and signed into law. You also spoil your son with gifts and sweets for being a bully, especially towards Harry and those he is friends with. You even tried to kill Harry in a fit of rage just because he tricked you into freeing your former house elf, but you don't deserve having any house elves anyway because you treat them like shit."
"Your son even tried attacking Harry with a cheap shot days before the Beauxbatons and Durmstrang people arrived for the Triwizard Tournament." Cho informed Lucius in an angry voice. Then she turned her rage towards Draco to rip him a new one, "You are such a despicable and bigoted person. Harry even told me how you offered him a friendship and that your prejudiced attitude and bullying nature was the reason he turned it down. Instead of being a better person, you decided to try getting a rise out of Harry at every opportunity. You also tend to get away with everything, especially with your stupid 'wait till my father hears about this' defence. That makes you an utter coward, since you never want to take responsibility for your actions."
"You're in just as much trouble, Severus!" Chuya growled at the greasy-haired potions teacher (who turned pale due to his frightened state having intensified). "You always ignore Draco and his pals being bullies while unjustly punishing Harry and his friends, which makes you guilty of oppression. From what I've found out, you tend to treat Harry like an exact clone of his father instead of looking past that and trying to get to know the real Harry. To make matters worse for him, you even had the nerve to mind rape him instead of proper Occlumency lessons."
"What kind of minister do you call yourself, Fudge?" Harry asked Cornelius, his voice dripping with as much contempt as possible. "You have no qualms in slandering me in the Daily Prophet, and yet I care about our world. That was why I kept trying to inform you all about Voldemort's return, so we could all be prepared to fight him and the death eaters. But no, you dismissed that as foolish nonsense and passed me off as a total nut."
"You also treated Harry so terribly it's not even close to funny, you toad!" Chuya snapped at Dolores. "You leave the students here in the castle as defenceless as possible with textbooks instead of properly learning the defensive spells to the point of leaving Harry to properly teach defensive magic, you made him use a blood quill to unjustly write sentences, you banned him from quidditch for life when you're not the head of the Department of Magical Games and Sports, you illegally interrogated my daughter with Veritaserum, and you even had the bloody gall to attempt the Cruciatus Curse on Harry just to pry information out of him. Now it's time for you all to reap what you've sown."
All of the adults and the one teen who were tied up felt their limbs trembling with intense fear. Harry and Cho began smirking when they faced Draco, while Chuya faced Lucius with a smirk on her face. Chuya waved her wand at what appeared to be a wall, but Lucius realized it was a door that had a camouflage spell on it. Then all of the waiting house elves (who were being led by Dobby) ran into the room and began pouncing on the Malfoy patriarch to beat him up relentlessly until he was out-cold, then they started dragging him away to parts unknown. Dobby stayed behind to give Draco long overdue spankings, much to the Malfoy scion's horror and embarrassment. Harry and Cho cast some advanced restraining charms to make sure Draco couldn't escape his predicament.
"Now it's your turn, toad!" Chuya informed Dolores, with a smirk on her face.
Harry and Cho widened their eyes in amazement to see her mother going mama-eagle on Dolores. Chuya didn't just smack, but she even scratched Umbridge across the face. Cornelius felt his insides doing flip-flops in fright to see Chuya unrelentingly attack his undersecretary. Some of the house elves returned to drag Dolores (whose face was now scratched up to where she was horribly disfigured and bleeding) away. Then Harry conjured up some galleons while Cho and her mother cast enlarging charms on the counterfeit money, then the three started casting some charms to make the galleons sprout arms, legs and a face (which had glares aimed at the terrified minister). The huge, humanoid galleons began piling themselves on Cornelius to the point where they crushed him. The minister quickly died from crush injuries, with some other house elves quickly returning to drag Cornelius' corpse away. Once Draco was dragged away, Harry, Cho and Chuya turned their glare on Albus to let him know that he was next.
"And I believe you know these red-haired idiots, Albus!" Chuya sneered at the headmaster.
At those words, Dobby, Winky and several more house elves brought out Molly and Ginny Weasley, and Hermione Granger (all of whom were also tied up in magic suppression rope). Albus began moving his eyes to Harry, Cho and Chuya, and then to the Weasley females repeatedly in confusion.
"As it turned out, headmaster," Harry told Dumbledore, his voice dripping with contempt. "These three here were helping you out in your bloody plans for the Greater Good. Shortly before my third year began, I heard Mrs. Weasley telling a story about how she brewed up a love potion and spiked Mr. Weasley's drinks back in their Hogwarts days, to Hermione and Ginny. The three females were rather giggly over that story, making it rather disturbing for me."
"Now, now, Harry dear," Molly tried convincing Harry. "We just wanted…"
"SILENCE, YOU FILTHY HAG!" Chuya thundered at Molly.
"I saw these spilling out of your school bag, Granger!" Cho snapped at the bushy-haired girl.
Hermione gasped in horror when she saw several vials of love potions in Cho's hands. There were also several vials of a gold-coloured potion, with Chuya explaining to Harry (who had a confused look on his face) that it was called Felix Felicis, also known as liquid luck. Then Harry pulled out some kind of top-secret document that was rolled up.
"This fell out of your school bag last week, Ginevra," Harry revealed to the now-frightened Weasley girl. "I wonder what it's all about, but maybe Mrs. Chang here can read it."
With a mischievous grin on his face, Harry handed the rolled-up parchment to Cho's mother. Cho backed away once she saw her mother unrolling the supposed document, since it also began angering the Chang matriarch. The more she looked over the parchment, the angrier Chuya got and she turned her rage towards Ginny.
"What is the meaning of giving Harry drinks laced with Amortentia, Miss Weasley?" Chuya growled.
"He's my hero!" Ginny squealed like a spoiled brat.
"That's never a reason to give Harry Amortentia!" Chuya snapped. "You would've gotten a puppet if you were successful."
"My sweet Ginny would never plan something as…!" Molly growled at the Chang matriarch.
"I THOUGHT I SAID SILENCE, YOU FILTHY HAG!" Chuya thundered at the cowering Weasley matriarch. "YOUR DAUGHTER IS ACTING LIKE A SPOILED BRAT AND YOU KNOW IT. YOU AND ALBUS HERE HAVE BEEN PLANNING ON CONTROLLING HARRY'S LIFE AND USING HIM LIKE A BLOODY PUPPET. THE PARCHMENT EVEN REVEALED THAT YOU KNEW ABOUT HARRY LIVING WITH HIS MUGGLE RELATIVES AND THAT YOU MAKE HIM LIVE THERE IN SPITE OF THEIR ABUSIVE TREATMENT, JUST SO HE'D SEE YOU ALL AS HIS RESCUERS. THAT IS UTTERLY INEXCUSABLE AND YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED."
"That's right!" a magnified voice blurted out.
Albus, Molly, Hermione and Ginny widened their eyes in horror to see Amelia Bones and the aurors having just arrived. As Harry, Cho and Chuya handed the evidence to the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, the aurors whipped their wands out and pointed them at the two corrupt adults and two corrupt teens. Albus and Molly were the first to be placed in magic suppression handcuffs while Hermione and Ginny tried to escape, only to be knocked down with tripping spells.
"NO!" Ginny screamed, as the aurors tried putting her hands behind her back to arrest her. The Weasley girl tried kicking out and struggling to free herself.
"Alright, Miss Weasley," snapped Amelia. "Now you're also charged with resisting arrest, and you'll also have assault and battery on an auror added to your charges. You don't have to say anything, as it may harm your defence in court. Anything you choose to say can be given in evidence. Now you'd better settle down before you make this worse."
"LET ME GO! LET ME GO! HARRY NEEDS ME!" Ginny squealed, refusing to settle down.
It took several aurors to hold Ginny down in order to place her in the magic suppression handcuffs. Even though they managed it, Ginny continued to try freeing herself and was stunned with a tazing spell. Once Ginny was led out to be taken into ministry custody, the other aurors started arresting Hermione.
"Get your hands off of me! I mean it, get away!" Hermione growled in anger, throwing out several punches.
Several stunning spells were fired at Hermione, knocking her out and allowing the aurors to place the bushy-haired girl in magic suppression handcuffs. Then she regained consciousness and was read her rights, as well as being told that resisting arrest and assault and battery on an auror would be added to her record. Hermione glared at Harry, Cho and Chuya as she was led out to be taken into ministry custody. Then Chuya gave Harry and Cho a hug.
"I'm sorry I didn't realize what Dolores was doing, Harry!" Chuya apologized to Harry in a sincere voice. "She was keeping her real plans hidden and made it look like she would follow proper protocol, but now I realized she was lying."
"I accept your apology, ma'am." assured Harry.
"Please call me Chuya, Harry," Chuya instructed in a soft voice. "No need for formalities."
"What will we do now, mum?" Cho asked her mother.
"Maybe we can go out into muggle London," Chuya suggested. "Maybe have pizza or something, and perhaps go to a movie theater afterwards as a celebration."
Harry and Cho nodded their heads in approval, then Chuya instructed her daughter and Harry to follow her to the outside of the wards surrounding Hogwarts. Once there, Harry and Cho each grabbed Chuya by an arm before apparating away. Now that everyone responsible for making Harry's life miserable was dealt with for good, peace at Hogwarts and the wizarding world was finally restored. Now that Harry had a real mother figure and a girl who truly cared for him, he could finally get the life he desired and rightfully deserved. Things were beginning to look up.
The End
Author's note 1: I'd like to give a shoutout to the user 'Charry forever' for suggesting that Cho's mother go mama-eagle on the wrongdoers controlling Harry. While I had Molly, Hermione and Ginny helping Dumbledore and gave Cho's mother her name, the main idea goes to Charry forever.
I'm also going to leave the fates of Lucius, Draco, Dolores, and Cornelius' corpse up to you.
Author's note 2: Another one-shot completed. Which girl should Harry be paired with in the next one-shot? Please let me know in a review or a PM. Happy reading!
