Remember when in answering your reviews I said the next chapter could take some time? Well I definetely do since I wrote THAT 10 minutes ago. So yeah fuck sleep I am on a roll and I want to continue writing this story. I am quite proud of myself since I wrote some good stuff already. Enough with the gloating. I wanna say something real important. Some of you will have recognized that I don't particulary like Dumbledore. I don't hate him either but he seems so focused on the final destruction of Voldemort and his Greater Good that he sometimes forgets about the individuals. Now you might see things in this and the following chapters that you would consider to be bashing of his character. Always remember the pov though ;). Enjoy
Chapter 10: 5th May 1988 AD / 37 BBY, Wales
pov: Magnus Revan
Yesterday was a shitshow. It couldn't be called anything else. Not only did their kids experience a trauma, Rose was heavily injured which she would need to recover from before her training could continue. Violet already had her first experience with the darkside and she was just 6, almost 7, still... way too young, way too young. This could be a major problem in the future if she was this vulnerable to the darkside, luckily Harry seemed to have been more in control. Still they had to be very careful here, losing them to the Sith in the future would be a catastrophe with their power. To put a small cherry on top of the whole situation, they learned from the conversation with Remus that Albus Dumbledore had lied to his friends about the Potter childrens' safety. Another thing had come to this attention. Rose's injury was partially his fault. He had been an utter fool. Magnus had completely disregarded Roba when he said that having the children train in their other gifts would help extremely in the future. Well no more. He would send Harry, Rose and Violet together to this Hogwarts school in three years. Albus Dumbledore was there but so were a lot of other adults. But perhaps a protection would be needed, not one of them though no, they would never be accepted there. But what about someone or rather something else, something intimidating, something what they had never seen before? Yes he liked the thought. Haku would likely also enjoy the challenge and the chance to kill some meatbags. And he was sure that at some point the children would be attacked it was only a matter of time. But he also would need to do some things personally. He would find out everything he could about this magical society. But at first how to find it and he knew just the right person for that.

pov: Remus Lupin
To say that Remus had been angry the last couple of days would be an understatement. He was absolutely furious with Albus and he and Moony who had howled for hours in his mind at the percieved betrayal of trust, would need some more time to calm down before he came to Hogwarts for a chat. From the number of letters and patroni it was obvious though that Albus would rather like this to be sooner than later. But this wouldn't be a chat with just him and Albus no he would call for the entire order to be present, every single member. He would expose Albus' bullshit to all of them. He hoped that Albus would find himself forced to abandon his 'I keep everything to myself since I know best' mentality and would include the order more. Remus would wait a few more days.

Lucius Malfoy was currently sitting in his manor. He had just come back from a meeting with that fool of a politician, what was his name again, Cornelius Grudge?... No Cornelius Fudge was his name Lucius was certain. Anyway in less than two years the Wizengamot would frist decide on whether Bagnold would continue leading Magical Britain. This was unlikely, he and his associates had made sure that the economical situation only barely improved after the death of their Lord. When Bagnold would inevitably lose her position the Wizengamot had to choose a new minister. And that was where Fudge came into play. Cornelius was a man who, how could Lucius put it in words, liked money and liked spending a lot of money. Unfortunately the Fudge part of his name implied that he was part of the Fudge family (what a surprise) which had never been very wealthy so Cornelius had to resort to other means besides his position as senior secretary to get to money. And you know what Lucius meant with that. Anyway he had been in a lot of meetings with Cornelius over the last year buttering him where he could so that he would run as a candidate. Naturally when the time came Lucius and associates would ensure that Cornelius would become minister. Cornelius not being very smart would believe he was in Lucius' debt and voila the deatheater remnants had a puppet in the government. His mind strafed to another matter entirely.
Earlier that day he had another lesson on pureblood history with his son Draco who was now eight years old. You would imagine that eight years are too young for someone to be taught politics but this is magical politics we are talking about. If 11 year olds have to fear getting killed in a certain magical school and that by one of their professors then an eight year old can learn politics. There was just one problem. Young Draco wasn't entirely accepting of Lucius' lessons and beginning to nod off when Lucius was telling him of pureblood supremacy. This would have to be corrected but for now he would wait and have patience with his son... he was only eight after all.
Suddenly his elf, Dobby, popped into the room „Someone be wanting to talk with you master" Ugh who could that be this late? „Anyone I know?" „No master" „Send them in" he said annoyed. And in came a short woman with a determined look „Who are you and what are you doing here this late?" he asked her with a scowl. She scowled right back, impressive she had balls.. or was it.. ah nevermind. „I am Alexandra Leszka one of the scouts you hired to find the Potter brats and here to get my reward for finding them." his mind stopped working for a moment. "I told your two little deatheaters that I wanted my money the next day and I have been patient so far but.." she was interrupted by him shouting „You found them? Where are they?". The woman seemed to be confused „What? I thought you had them. I literally showed two of your deatheaters where they were and after doing my job apparated away". He was quickly getting a headache „With me now! I have a pensieve here somewhere..."

It was time. Tomorrow would be the second meeting with Magnus so his chat with the Order would have to be today. He had sent out a patronus to Albus yesterday informing him that he would come to explain himself if the entire order was present. Eventually he got the answer that Albus agreed with his demands but he knew that Albus only did this because he really wanted to know what happened. With that he apparated to Hogwarts
Yeah I got more ideas so the little chat with Albus will have to wait a chapter
