Chapter 5: The Weasley's trials
The day after the two killings of the parents, two owls flew in breakfast about it to Harry's followers, one to both girls. They both said they had to attend the trial and they said that Hermione could bring an adult to the trial. Harry insisted on going as in the eyes of the wizarding world he was considered an adult. Dumbledore agreed and Harry, Hermione went to Potter Manor first before the trial where they met up with Lily and Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy was there.
'Hello Potter,' Lucius said
'Hello Malfoy' Harry said
'Me and my wife here are ready to take your mark', Lucius said
'I am glad you are at last ready', Harry said
'And we are glad that you will accept us', Lucius said
'Give me your arm you two' Harry demanded
Harry put his mark which replace the dark mark on Lucius' arm and a new mark just formed on Narcissa
'How is my son Harry?' Narcissa enquired
'He is very good and good dueller' Harry replied 'Also very smart, health wise he is good as well'
'That's very good Harry' Narcissa said
After this they all got up and left to go to the ministry of magic, Hermione was there because she had to be, Harry and Lucius both were on the wizengamot and took their seats and Lily and Narcissa sat together for public image. Harry quickly spotted the Weasley family many of were crying. However, he spotted a young girl curiously staring at him. Harry was planning to approach her at the end of the trial. But his thoughts were cut into when the trial started, Percy and Ron was put on trial together as the close proximity of the two murders made the ministry think it was planned. So the trial started Dumbledore started the proceeding explaining the proceedings they then called up Penelope, who brilliantly manipulated the wizengamot, which Harry couldn't help but smile about then came Hermione who did the same, then finally Harry got called up,
'Hello fellow Wizengamot members' Harry said, continuing with 'As you can see by these twos own confession', which they earlier had, 'these two are guilty, as such they both deserve life in Azkaban, on top of this I would like to be made Hermione's guardian as thanks to Ron Weasley she no longer has parents,' the Wizagamot took a moment to consider this and then were allowed to vote. Dumbledore asked who was in favour of both of Harry Potter's requests and he won on a majority and so that was the punishment they received, and Harry was now Hermione guardian. After this Harry went up to the Weasley
'Hope you don't blame me for your sons going to Azkaban,' Harry said
'Of course, not dear,' Molly Weasley replied
'Thank you, Molly,' Harry replied
With that the two adult Weasleys left and then a young girl Weasley came up to Harry
'Hello, Harry I am Ginny Weasley,' Ginny said
'Hello Ginny, sorry about your brothers,' Harry responded
'Well they were prats, but I never expected that from them' Ginny replied
'Nor did I, Ginny,' Harry said
'Well as I said I am sorry that they did that I hope your friend is okay,' Ginny said
'She isn't right now but she will get over it soon, I hope. What house do you want to be in next year?' Harry enquired
'I want to be in your house what is it?' Ginny asked
'Slytherin,' Harry responded
'Then I want to be in that house,'
'Well that is the best house,' Harry said
'That is why I want to be in it,' Ginny blushed
'Okay then I will see you there' Harry said before going off to re-join his group. As they got back to Potter Manor, Harry said 'Well that went very well, two blood traitors behind bars and we got revenge on the filthy muggles,' Harry said smiling
'I know' Lily said 'Let's celebrate' with that she called the Potter house elf to cook food for the five of them, which the elf did.
The group had a meal before Harry and Hermione went back to Hogwarts, there Harry told Penelope to meet him in the room of requirement, once she got there Harry congratulated her on her performance ss well as he asked her for a duel, which was close but Harry won. Harry was impressed with Penelope and complemented her magical ability. After he filled her in with some of his plans which she advised him on. He also asked her to do a few things with her prefect privileges. After this Harry went off for the night.
The next morning, Harry got a few laughs from the daily prophet headlines 'two Weasley imprisoned for murders,' 'Weasleys, light or dark?' the one which got Harry really interested was 'Arthur Weasley demoted over his sons murders,' this got Harry wondering if he could get Ginny earlier and get her to bend to him earlier, he decided there was no harm in trying to do so he went to Potter Manor before using the floo powder there to go to the burrow.
Harry was disgusted at the poverty in the borrow, he thought that it would be easy to get Ginny for a certain price.
'Hello Harry,' Molly said
'Hello, Ms Weasley, is you husband home?'
'Yes, he is, Arthur,' she yelled up
'Why, if it is not Harry Potter,' Arthur said when he saw who it was
'Can we sit down I would like to talk to you about something,' Harry asked them both
'They both agreed and soon the parents called down their daughter, Ginny, who Molly Weasley told her 'Due to your brothers' actions your father has got a demotion and this means this family is struggling harder than ever, so Harry has agreed to take you as a servant around his manor for 100 gallons a month,' Ginny was close to crying she couldn't believe that her parents would do this but knew it was pointless arguing and so just went with it. Harry got the floo back to his manor.
When Harry and Ginny got there, they were joined by Lily, Harry and Lily both then brought out there wands and both said 'Crucio' aiming it at Ginny, Ginny instantly fell over in pain
'What d..i...d I ...do?'
'Do you promise to be loyal to Harry?' Lily asked
'Why is that important?' Ginny asked
'Crucio, answer the question,' Lily said in response
'Yes,' Ginny responded
The crucio curses was lifted and Lily commanded Ginny 'Give Harry your arm,' Ginny followed this at once and Harry quickly put the mark on her arm.
'You are now my servant, do you understand?' Harry asked
'Yes, my lord, I am happy to be in your group' Ginny responded
'Now go with Lily to keep my manor in order,' Harry said, and with that Harry went back to Hogwarts Happy with gaining another follower.
