*******************************************************************************Prank War Council**********************************************************************************
After spending most of the afternoon beside Daphne in infirmary, it was 5 in the the evening when Poppy came out of her office cursing and mumbling. Harry caught some words like "greasy git" and other profanities as she got closer to them with tray of potions.
Poppy got close to the bed where her patient was asleep. Putting the tray of potion on the side table she proceeded to do a quick diagnostic charm only to find exhaustion and fatigue otherwise her patient was okay which meant only one thing.
She turned to Harry who she didn't notice before saying "Noble as ever Mr. Potter but with this, you have a responsibility to take care of her as the to be bound by magic is practically being married, so by that logic you are married to Ms. Greengrass or should I say Mrs. Potter?" she said with mirth in her tone.
The statement was enough for him to go red while his girlfriends chuckled at his plight.
They were joined by Poppy chuckled saying "Relax Mr. Potter I was just joking, to be married in eyes of magic is no simple thing even if you were of age it would require a ceremony like any wedding and vows by the parties. Still, you are bound to each other by magic so it safe to say you have a fiancee."
Harry took a sigh of relief as he heard Poppy and watched Fleur smile.
Poppy took the potion vial and said "Now as her 'fiance' (with air quotes) you must see that she takes these potions every night before she goes to bed. These are, Dreamless sleep potion which is to be taken every day with Sleeping draught others only when deemed necessary" with that she conjured a wooden case about a 2 feet long and placed calming draught, Draught of Peace and Invigoration Draught.
Placing the final vial Poppy closed the lid and gave the box to Harry saying "This has a supply for a month if her state is not better by then I think she will need a mind healer but let's hope…." She paused looking at Daphne with a sad expression "….. it does not come to that" with that she left.
Harry shrunk the box and pocketed it, as he did he felt Daphne stir a little and saw as her eyes opened in instant and tears were streaming from her eyes. Her head moved franticly side to side before she spotted him and lunged towards him.
Holding him for life she repeated her fears and nightmares once again just like before. Harry stroked her long Brunette locks and calmed her that she is safe. He gestured for Fleur to pass the potion.
When she was a little calmer Harry broke apart from a sniffing Daphne. He took the potion from Fleur and turned to Daphne saying "Daph, drink this it will chase them so far he won't ever come back."
Daphne looked at him almost ready to cry asking in a cracked voice "y-you ar-are going to leave aren't you? Please don't ….that monster will….. Come for me.. Please stay with me" a sniffling mess of a witch pleaded.
He smiled hiding a pang of sadness that struck his heart and a silent fire of fury that was building in him. He reassured her saying "I won't leave you Daph, it's just something to help you sleep better"
Daphne looking in his eyes asked "Promise?"
He didn't reply he just touched the vial to her lips and she opened her mouth he emptied the vial after that once again lulled her to sleep.
He turned to Tracey saying "I know you are exhausted but I have to ask you one last time to watch over her cause we have some things I have to do but after that, you can rest as well and we are here for you if you need anything"
Fleur smiled adding "Oui, if you need to talk to someone just come to moi, please don't shy from coming to me"
Tracey shook her head saying "Thank you guys and it's not a big deal but just return as soon as you can then cause I am exhausted and can use a bit of rest"
Harry and Fleur smiled nodding and left the infirmary. As they did Harry's face morphed into a fury to kill and most it was directed to one name, Draco Malfoy. The aura around him was of visible and varied color.
Fleur saw in awe, a little arousal, and fear. It was fear of him doing something he would regret later so turned him around and said "Mon Amour, calm down you are scaring me"
He looked at fear in her eyes and an instant, his aura vanished as his look changed to one of that is of guilt. He took her in his embrace saying "I am sorry love…..I am truly sorry…..its just that I can't see her like that and that bastard is escaping without any consequences. I want him to suffer just like she is and the meeting is to discuss how we will destroy him"
Fleur smiled as she liked the warmth of his embrace and said still hugging him "Zen calm down cause anger will not 'elp you in planning. You need to be level 'eaded to plan with ozzer, Oui?"
He smiled saying "Oui"
The couple made their way to the seventh floor to the tapestry of a man trying to teach trolls how to dance. The people who Harry invited were already there in addition to Hannah who was there with Susan but was standing close to Neville while blushing and stealing glances at the resident Gryffindor herbology expert. Harry smiled as they moved towards the couple.
He greeted the group "Hey Guys"
The group replied in chorus "Hey Harry!"
Twins who were impatient as ever were about to start their rant when he cut them to the chase saying "I know you all are thinking what is the reason for this meeting. I will answer that but first I would like all of you to wait for me to call at the end of the corridor, okay?"
The group as a whole gave a curious look but accepted without question. He turned to Fleur and Susan asking "want to see something cool?"
They grinned saying in sync "Always"
With a smirk, Harry walked up to an empty wall and paced in front of it three times back and forth. Fleur and Susan looked at their boyfriend/ fiancee with a questioning look only to gasp as they saw a huge door appear out of nowhere in the wall that was all but empty before.
He watched their expressions and smiled to see the desired effect. He took his place between them asking "Cool isn't it?"
Fleur turned to him smiling "Oui but something tells moi it is not all you wanted to show me is it?"
Susan snorted saying "when it's with Harry it's never just one thing"
Harry smiled saying "You would have made a great Ravenclaw and no there is much more which I will show you, Susan, and…." He paused and took a breath said "…..Daphne when she is all well. But for now, let's call them shall we"
With that, he walked down the corridor and brought his friends back with him. All of them entered the room which was mostly a huge empty room only with a wooden table like the ones in the grand hall but it was smaller with 11 chairs with 5 on either side and one at the head of the table. Harry took a head chair while Fleur took one on his left and Susan took one on another side.
Hannah took a seat beside Susan and on her right were Neville, Fred, George, and Angelina, while Hermione sat beside Fleur, and on her left were Katie and Alicia.
Once everyone was seated Harry started "Guys what we are here for is a question in all of your minds, right?" Receiving nods from the group he continued "The reason for this meeting is the utter and absolute destruction of Draco Malfoy. Or more particularly his reputation"
Fred asked "Harrikins we know he-
-is a git but to destroy him, But" George
"Isn't that-
-going a little overboard?"
The group nodded in agreement. He looked grim saying "You have no idea who he is and I don't blame you. I used to think of him as the most unsuitable person for his house but I was very wrong and I have realized it 2 days ago. You know in the past I could have avoided him but no more" as he ended his magic started to flare up but receded as both Fleur and Susan put one hand on his thighs.
But everyone felt the tension in the room that was brought by his statement which was only intensified by the pure magic coming off him. Silence reigned in the room until Angelina broke it asking "So what is it? What did he do to earn your wrath?" everyone nodded to her question.
Harry calmed down and said "Two days ago, he ordered 7 seniors of house Slytherin who were of his vassal houses to rape Daphne Greengrass and Tracy Davis. I was just in time. Tracy is okay but Daphne is broken and fears that bastards will come after her again. Seeing it was not safe for them to be in their house I got them resorted, Daphne is in our house while Tracy is in Ravenclaw."
For a few minutes, the silence fell on the room once again as everyone took their time to let it sink in.
Hannah finally broke the silence asking with a determined look on her "what do you want us to do Harry?" her one reflected his fury to flay Draco alive. Her sentiment was shared by the whole group.
Harry saw it and could only smirk before turning serious saying "He takes pride in being a scion of Pureblood family, that pride is our target. That is what we will destroy" he turned to twins saying "Fred & George we are going to prank him in public in the great hall but never leave a mark, it's going to be a hell of a chance for both of you to test your product for your Joke shop in return I will invest in it"
Twins eyes widened as they were about to speak Harry cut them off "I know about your plans in the future cause your youngest brother can't keep a secret to save his life" both of the Twins Grinned and nodded.
Harry turned to Katie saying "Katie you are the queen of gossip and rumors in the school so go wild with it make it so that pounce can't turn his head without hearing a new one also it would have a better effect if you work with twins on this and time rumors with pranks" Katie smiled nodding. She loved her gossip it was second nature to her
Harry turned to Angelina and Alicia saying " Both of you have a somewhat same influence in the school as him but what I want you to use it for is to tell every girl in the school to stay away from him or at least in our house" turning to Hannah he said "you will do the same with Susan in the Hufflepuff and Tracey will do the same in Ravenclaw, in simple fact outcast him. Give him what deserves, I ask you this as I know all of you feel the same as me and girls even more. So please do it so that he gets what he deserves"
Alicia smiled at this saying "We will Harry cause he has done this once and you or anyone won't be there to save girls. They need to be alert when around them. So you can count on us make his life hell"
All the upper years Gryffindor nodded. Harry smiled saying "Thank you guys, now I would not mind I need to discuss some things with Neville, Hermione, Hannah, and Susan in private so….." He trailed off and with a nod Twins stood up saying
"…..well Harrikins thanks…"
"…..a ton for our new test subject….."
"…we will make sure he is…."
"….not dead by the end of the year…."
"…. Or at least we can try," Fred said and with a smile took their leaving with Angelina, Alicia, and Katie, closing the door behind them.
As they did Harry sat back down only to see awed faces of his friends, betrothed, and his girlfriend.
He asked "What?"
Susan smiled saying "You took the charge of the meeting and laid out the whole plan without hesitation or reluctance, it was like you were in a trance or something" she leaned to his ears and whispered "also it was so arousing" she kissed him on the cheek.
He turned bright red for a second but shook it saying "Well it's just when I first saw him in the first year he was just a nosy brat but now he is a threat to everyone I care for and that I will not take lightly"
At this Hannah gaped before asking "Harry you don't mean…."
Before he could answer Susan cut in and said "Yes, I will explain you later"
Harry smiled at the redhead as she was quickly making him fall for her as he did for Fleur and Amelia. It was made much harder than she was giving him a hard time not to stare at her bosom. He shook his head and regained his composure as he turned only to see Fleur give him a knowing smile.
Harry turned his attention to Hermione saying " 'Mione you and I are going to do two things, First we will help Daphne recover. Second, we are going to find a spell or something which can ensure that Draco can't look at her ever again in his life and for that, we are going to have plenty of time in the library hell I am even asking Sirius and others if there is anything like that. And if there is not then we are going to make one, cause I promised Daphne and I intend to keep it" when he was finished the bushy-haired witch had a sparkle in her eyes as she nodded furiously
Neville sighed at this and said "Mate you have just made a deal with the devil good luck and goodbye until I see you again that is if you escape the books you will be buried under" at this everyone laughed except for Hermione who huffed playfully.
Harry wiped the water off the corner of his eyes saying "Yeah mate I will now you lot go to Dinner, me Fleur and Susan are going back to the infirmary, we will spend a night there" with that all of them left the room and split as the Harry, Fleur, and Susan stopped at infirmary while Hermione, Hannah, and Neville headed down to the Great hall
In the infirmary, they reached Daphne's bed and saw that she was sleeping peacefully and Tracy too was sleeping in bed Beside her. Sighing in relief three of them sat there until it was curfew time. So as they were leaving Harry made a mental note to come early in the morning.
As he was walking out of the infirmary he spotted the single person he didn't want to, Draco Malfoy. The dread settled in his stomach as he stood at the entrance of the Infirmary his magic flaring going wild the castle thrummed as the response.
Fleur and Susan saw him too but their focus was to prevent a bloodbath. They each took Harry's hand and as they started to drag him back into the infirmary.
Malfoy Heir who was looking at all this smirked from across the Hall before he turned to walk back to Slytherin's common room.
Back Inside Infirmary after 10 minutes, Harry sat beside Daphne saying "She is not safe until she is well enough to defend herself. Both of you can go I will just stay here with her, I have my cloak I will make it back to the dorm and back early morning. Both of you go but stay alert I know it's curfew but just be careful"
"We will Harry don't worry" Susan reassured him before kissing and hugging him.
Fleur nodded saying "Oui we will and you get some rest too, don't stay up all night" stroking his hair before kissing and hugging him.
He smiled at her saying "I will"
As soon as they were out of his sight he drew Marauder's Map. He opened it observing Susan making her way to the Hufflepuff common room and Fleur was back in the Beauxbatons carriage.
He took a breath of relief that they were safe. He looked at sleeping face Daphne he remembered the smirk on the face of Draco and how much he wanted to wipe that off his face. But he knew doing anything to him will only be seen as him attacking him without provocation.
So he was not going to target him physically but pranks were his weapon and Twins were the best Generals he could imagine. Before it was a schoolyard rivalry now it was a WAR.
