'Thoughts'
[Kitten speech]
Soon the courtroom was filled once more. Dumbledore fought again when he was given the potion. Soon Amelia was standing in front of him.
"What happened to Harry Potter?" She asked.
"His uncle killed him."
"How do you know?"
"Arabella contacted me and told me she hadn't seen him in a couple days. I went to check on them. That's when I found out."
"Did she outright tell you?"
"No. She tried to lie to me."
"How did you find out?"
"I read her mind."
"What did you do to her and her family?"
"I killed them."
"We found scans you did on Potter as a baby. When did that occur?" She asked.
"The night I placed him with the Dursleys. After Hagrid and Minerva left."
"Why?"
"I knew that Voldemort had made horcruxes. I believed that he accidentally made one after he attacked the Potters. He did. Harry Potter was a horcrux." That made most of the courtroom gasp.
"What did you plan for Harry Potter?"
"I was going to use him to defeat Voldemort, kill him if he didn't die from his fight with the dark lord, and take credit for the defeat. I will become more famous and powerful."
"Did you plan to use another boy after Potter died?"
"Yes."
"Who?"
"Neville Longbottom."
"You attacked Neville's parents. Correct?"
"Correct."
"You cursed them into insanity, correct?"
"Correct."
"Why didn't you kill them?"
"Augusta Longbottom came back and I was forced to leave before she saw me."
"Why did you attack them?"
"They had discovered I was stealing from muggleborns."
"How did they discover that?"
"They overheard me at the bank."
"Why were you stealing from muggleborns?"
"I learned that muggleborns have squibs in their lines. I wanted their money and heirlooms."
"How did you get their vaults?"
"I find the ones that come from families that were believed to be extinct. I get them to sign those vaults over to me and then I go to the bank. I request a meeting with Goldblade. I use the imperius curse on him and get him to empty their vaults and then I remove the memory."
"So you tortured the Longbottoms and planned to kill them to keep them quiet?"
"Yes."
"Do you have a horcrux?" She asked.
"Yes." That made many gasp.
"When did you make it?"
"The day after I became headmaster. I killed a squib to do it."
"Where is it?"
"My house."
"What is it?"
"A phoenix figurine."
"Who did you expect to use the horcrux and bring you back?" She asked with a smirk.
"My daughter." Again people gasped out in shock.
"Who is her other parent?"
"Gellert."
"Was she born before or after you imprisoned him?"
"After. He tried to hide her from me but he failed."
"You took her away?"
"Of course."
"You raised her?"
"I did. She was raised to be my loyal minion."
"Where is she?"
"My home."
"Fawkes isn't willingly bound to you, is he?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"I'm not certain. He's been bound to the headmasters of Hogwarts since Godric Gryffindor. I believe that it's due to me killing my sister or imprisoning Gellert and using him as my own personal sex slave."
"How did you bond him with you?"
"Custodia animam meam." (Soul Imprisonment)
"He is bound to you by his soul?" Even she didn't know that.
"Yes."
"Where did you get that spell?"
"From 'Ancient Binding Spells.'"
"Is there a reversal spell?"
"Dimisit meam."
"Good." Amelia breathed out a sigh of relief.
"Why did you allow Remus Lupin to go to Hogwarts when you knew there were schools out there for magical creatures?"
"I needed werewolves on my side. Voldemort had their favor. I needed them on my side."
"Did you manipulate Mr Lupin?" She asked.
"Yes."
"How?"
"I made him afraid of himself. I needed him to be weak and pathetic so that he would look at me like a god and be loyal to me."
"Mr Black played a deadly prank on Mr Snape. How did you learn of it?"
"I was taking a walk around the grounds when it happened. I saw it."
"Did you punish Mr Black or his friends?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"I wanted them to continue to bully Snape. That boy was dark and I knew that if pushed he would join Voldemort and I hoped he would die. My great great grandmother was a Prince. When he died the money would be mine. Plus it would make the boys grateful to me."
"No further question."
"Alright." The pale minister said. "We shall give the wizengamot a minute to deliberate."
"Okay." Dumbledore was given the potion while a ward went up.
A few people left. The aurors went to his house and grabbed the horcrux. Another grabbed the phoenix and reversed the bond. They then freed Fawkes. The horcrux was taken to the unspeakables and was destroyed. The ward soon went down. The wizengamot made their decision.
