Saturday, November 1st, 1986 – the Ministry of Magic – Courtroom Ten
Many of the Blacks were glaring hatefully at Pettigrew.
"So, are you telling us Crouch that you put my cousin in jail without a trial but offered one to my crazy sister?". Sirius expected Andromeda to say this, but Narcissa?
"Cissy? I never expected you to defend me. Am I sure I am not dreaming?"
"Don't be ridiculous Sirius. Despite our differences, we are still cousins and family. I knew you run away because of Aunt Walburga."
"But you never bothered giving me a trial."
"I owled your grandfather after you were arrested."
"So did I," said Andromeda.
"And it seems Crouch tricked me with a well-convincing fake confession transcript," said Arcturus Black.
With Peter Pettigrew present, and with him not being an Occlumens, it was easy to just make him confess to his crimes under Veritaserum, and clear Sirius Black of all charges.
"Sirius Black was arrested on November 1st, 1981. We are November 1st, 1986. This trial should have happened exactly five years ago," said an angry Amelia Bones, eying Cruch. Then the DMLE Head apologized to Sirius and announced she's going to sue Bartemius Crouch Sr. for denying Sirius Black a trial five years ago. Sirius Black was released from the chackles and was greeted by his relatives, despite his sneers at them.
"Sirius, there are stuff we must discuss," said Arcturus Black.
"What is it Grandfather?"
"Would you mind coming with me to my house?"
"No."
"Narcissa, Andromeda, I also need to both to come."
"Certainly," they both side.

"So, Grandfather. What do you want to discuss?"
"I want you to become the Heir again."
"Absolutely not. I want nothing to do with this family of blood supremacists. I only care about Andy."
"I changed my views."
"What? Are you serious?"
"No, you are."
"How comes?"
"Regulus opened my eyes."
"Reg?" asked Sirius, Andromeda, and Narcissa, stunned.
"Yes. His mother and her brother forced him to be a Death Eater, but after he joined them, he saw the Dark Lord for what he truly was. He started doing his own research and learn that everything he was taught was a lie." Narcissa was listening attentively to her cousin's grandfather. Could it be? Could Regulus and his grandfather have actually discovered everything they were taught was a lie."
"Purebloods are superior? Ha! No one hates a pureblood more than another pureblood. Try gathering all the pureblood families without Ministry supervision and I can guarantee you that two dozen Killing Curses will get fired, some coming from the Light Side. And I can also bet that some people will fire a Killing Curse at Andromeda Tonks just because she's Bellatrix Lestrange's sister," said Lord Black. Andromeda was glad to see her sister nod at what their granduncle was saying then shivered when she heard some people wanted to murder her just because of who her older sister is. Narcissa tried to give her a reassuring look.
"Then I accept the offer."
"That's good," said Arcturus Black.
"But I have my conditions?"
"What are they?"
"Restoring Andy to the family."
"I undid all the disownments."
"And what about our family motto?"
"It refers to magic, not blood. The meaning was changed in 1623."
"What?" exclaimed a shocked Narcissa. "Are you telling me everything I was taught was a lie?"
"It seems so."
Narcissa didn't know what to think. It was too much to take.
