A.N I don't own Harry Potter
A.N2 Nero Flint was Tiberius Flint's father making him the grandfather to the late Cassandra/Lily Potter. Nero had been minister of magic. He made many enemies as a gray wizard for wanting to keep children out of the death eater ranks and order of the phoenix ranks. It ended with him passing away while in office in 1973.
Electa and Professor Sprout followed Sara to the fourth year girls room. Hermione saw Potter wearing the Slytherin uniform. "What is going on?"
"I have been resorted. I need to clear out my part of the room."
Hermione, Parvati, and Lavender were speechless because their days of control are over. In the common room, the males were trying to explain to Snape, Black, and Flint why they were plotting to have Sara Potter kicked out of the football club and for her to take a Gryffindor to the Yule Ball instead. She also would be confined to her dorm room when it wasn't time for class or meals.
McLaggen wasn't too bright. "The headmaster and McGonagall said she would turn evil if we didn't control her every move and isolate her. As far as hexing, she owes us an apology…"
The boys were trying to get McLaggen to shut up . . Snape dealt out the punishments. "50 points from Gryffindor each as well as detention for the rest of the year for your bullying. What you're doing could make someone suicidal."
Justinian glared. "If it is not class related, Sara will not be allowed to associate with you. I don't think she will mind given how poorly you have treated her."
Professor Sprout and Electra came down the stairs with Sara. Justinian was eager to get the hell out of Gryffindor tower. Snape, Flitwick, and Sprout would no longer approve of any Gryffindor headboy or head girl for the foreseeable future. The prefects would be stripped of their badges.
Everyone felt better now Sara was away from the lions. Once in the Slytherin dungeon, they all knew. Cassius was waiting for his witch. When he saw her, he breathed a sigh of relief. "The Gryffs didn't try anything?"
"They wanted to but between my aunt, uncle, godfathers, as well as Professors Snape, Sprout, and Flitwick, but they didn't. "
Snape did want a meeting with Sara. "Miss Potter,my office. "
An elf took Sara's trunk and Sara followed. The house rivalry just heated up. Sara followed Snape into his office and closed the door. Sars was one of the few Gryffs who didn't get on his nerves. She was always prepared for class and consistently produced excellent potions.
"You will be taking your medication in my office from now on. There is too much of a chance your former housemates will sabotage them. Now, I know you have a habit of isolating. That is not going to be allowed. The Gryffindors will want retribution. Now, have you solved your egg for the second task?"
"I have, Professor. It will involve me freeing a hostage in the lake. My plan is to perform a summoning circle to keep my time in the water minimal and to remove the hostage."
Snape liked it. She was free to go to the common room. Snape had a meeting with his prefects.
Adrian smirked when he saw Sara. "So are you going to play quidditch now you are free from the lions?"
"Of course not"
The quidditch team looked scandalized. Cassius knew there was more to it. "Sara, are you secretly afraid of heights…"
Before she could say anything to her housemates off, Draco answered for her. "She is. Sara turned whiter than the ghosts. Come on, we all know flying is your worst class."
"You are a pratt. It's not that I'm afraid. It's me just getting dizzy on anything high."
While Sara was getting teased by her housemates, the prefects were getting briefed.
"...This does not get out of Slytherin. Sara Potter was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in September. She is in remission."
Miles was confused. "Professor, how did this not become public gossip?"
"The Blacks and Lupin have ensured nothing got out. Potter has been mum about the ordeal."
Victoria Parkinson, seventh year prefect had a question. "Professor, is it safe for Potter to still be in the football club?"
Severus understood why she asked. "For right now, yes, Potter will remain in the football club."
Marcus went to see his parents after the board of governors meeting. "Please tell me Sara isn't stuck in Gryffindor?"
"Good news, your aunt will be the first and last Flint to be in Gryffindor. The Hat wanted Sara in Slytherin even as a first year. Merlin, the Gryffs are truly disturbing creatures. While your mother and Professor Sprout went with Sara to her dorm room so she could clear it out, some of the boys were plotting to have Sara thrown out of the football club. She would have been forced to take one of them as her date to the Yule Ball. Sara would have been confined to her room outside of meals and class."
Marcus' jaw dropped. "Why?"
"It was under Dumbledore's orders. He's paranoid about Sara turning dark. The mask has come off the morally superior Gryffindors. Snape deducted over five hundred points from Gryffindor."
Electra nodded in agreement. "Dumbledore's and McGonagall's tenure is numbered. When the Wizagnmont is back in session, your father, Lord Black, and uncle Richand will put the house of Potter under official protection."
Justinian smirked. "The Flint, Selwyn, and Black houses will be declaring formal blood feuds against Dumbledore, McGonagall, and Pettigrew."
Marcus definitely agreed. Pettigrew is the reason why his aunt and uncle are dead. The magical block on the Flint family tapestry is gone. He saw Cassandra Flint, James Potter and his cousin Sara Potter finally appear.
In Dumbledore's office, he was facing Lord Wood. He was the one who kidnapped Cassandra Flint. "Yes Albus, I have been cleared of changes. The entire family knows it was me. I would do it again if I had the opportunity."
"Why?"
"Nero Flint should have let children join the Order of the Phoenix. The best way to cause him pain was to hurt his son and his granddaughter. It was a joy knowing that Nero and Tiberius left this world without knowing what happened to Cassandra."
Augustine Wood left the school and Albus knew he was screwed come the next Wizagnmont session.
