Ch. 94

Euphemia Potter

Dolores Umbridge was one, scared woman because she had been arrested moments earlier and was now in an interrogation room in the Ministry of Magic secured to a chair while waiting for Amelia Bones and several aurors to arrive and question them. Others who were in the room secured to chairs included Albus Dumbledore, Severus Snape, Minerva McGonagall, Cornelius Fudge, and the male Malfoys Draco and Lucius. Dolores had been dragged away by the angry centaurs for half an hour before being dropped in the middle of the forbidden forest two days ago. Instead of acknowledging that her insults angered the centaurs into retaliation, the evil toad in pink cardigan just blamed it on her least favourite person, Harry Potter. Several minutes later, Amelia and a couple aurors arrived. They were followed by none other than Harry Potter and walking in beside him was a woman with gray hair in an elegant bun and sugar-gray eyes hidden behind a pair of light-gray thin-frame rectangular glasses entered the room to glare at the three adults secured to chairs. Dumbledore and Snape widened their eyes in fright to discover that the angry woman who followed Harry was his paternal grandmother, Euphemia. Snape had seen her on some occasions, but he couldn't say anything since he was one of the seven citizens to be on the receiving end of her anger.

"Euphemia!" Albus greeted her in his usual grandfatherly voice. "It's a pleasure to see you again."

"I can't say the same about you, Albus!" growled Euphemia. "What made you think it was alright for you to blackmail Hagrid into helping you kidnap my grandson and placing him with the Dursleys of all people? You know bloody well that Lily and James wanted Harry to stay as far away from those wretched people as possible."

"It was necessary, Euphemia," Albus tried defending his actions. "Harry was safer there than anywhere else. It needed to be done for the Greater Good."

"Excuses! Excuses! The Gringotts goblins even informed me that you've self-appointed yourself as Harry's magical guardian so you could been embezzle money from the Potter family vault and paying the Dursleys to 'take care of Harry,' but they spent all of that money on themselves and left Harry out of that." Euphemia sneered at the soon-to-be former headmaster. Then she turned her attention to Professor McGonagall to read her the riot act, "Minerva, I expected better of you, but you decided to take Albus' word for it that Harry was alright and cared for. I wouldn't be surprised that you and Albus were even obliviating Poppy's memory of finding evidence of abusive treatment on Harry because of the ole coot going with his 'Albus knows best' attitude, but that cost alot of good people their lives while allowing evil to lurk around with the whole second chances and pacifism policies. In other words Minerva, you allowed Albus to override your better judgment and even allowed Harry to suffer from cruel and unjust treatment over the years, especially from Severus, while also dismissing Harry's suspicions of something terrible happening and whenever those moments happened, you never gave my grandson a heartfelt apology and you never found a way to make it up to him. You really proved yourself to be Albus' lapcat, Minerva."

"Let's not be irrational, Euphemia!" Albus replied in a nervous voice.

"Just proves how much of a hypocrite you really are, Albus! I even have an inkling that you lied to Harry about me and Fleamont having died just so you can groom him into being a martyr by sacrificing himself for your Greater Good malarkey. You've meddled with his life for the last time, Albus." Euphemia snapped. Then she turned her attention to Snape to give him an earful, "And you had a hand in the deaths of my son and daughter-in-law by telling your master and Albus about that prophecy! If you kept your mouth shut, they'd still be alive. But no, you begged your master to spare Lily and not care about the fates of my son and grandson. Lily would've been furious with you if she ever found out about you treating her son like a clone of James."

"I've got some news for you two, Misters Mouthoff!" Harry started informing the male Malfoys, making them widen their eyes in shock. "My godfather left me his inheritance and family seats in the Wizengamot. That means you won't be getting that since I've reclaimed the seats, and Narcissa will be disowned from the Black family permanently and I'll be reinstating Tonks' mother Andromeda since she had been disowned for marrying a muggle-born out of pure and genuine love. No amount of money will convince me to reinstate Narcissa and have you two get some of that money. Your days of reigning over our citizens with threats and bribes are over."

"I will be suing you two for slandering my grandson throughout the whole year!" Euphemia told Fudge and Umbridge. Then she turned her full attention to Umbridge inform her, "I'm going to make sure that your crimes against my grandson will be revealed, same with illegally using Veritaserum, stealing family heirlooms, conspiracy to pass illegal laws, sending dementors over to my grandson to set him up for expulsion from Hogwarts,"

As soon as Euphemia nodded her head at Amelia and the aurors to signal that she and Harry were finished, Harry's wrongdoers were taken into ministry holding cells to await trial and an eventual hearing to determine their punishments. Then Harry and his paternal grandmother returned to the lobby of the Ministry to floo home to Potter Manor. It was time for Harry to get caught up on his missed moments of bonding with his paternal grandparents. One month later, Harry's wrongdoers were being escorted to the Gringotts prison mines to pay off the debt they owed the Potter family, where they were to remain for ten years before spending another fifty years in Azkaban as another punishment for their crimes. Now that he could be with his grandparents without worry, Harry was free from the clutches of his wrongdoers. Luck was on his side for once.

The End!

Author's note: I'd like to give a shoutout to 'Ryo-chan wolfgirl' for suggesting that James' mother make an appearance to rip Dumbledore, McGonagall, Fudge, Umbridge, Snape, and the male Malfoys a new one for the way they treated Harry.

Also a shoutout to 'magitech' for suggesting that Draco and Lucius be referred to as Misters Mouthoff.
