A day in the life of a muggle
By Maddy
CHAPTER 15
She got into the grate and left. When she got out of the fire place she found the minister of magic pointing his wand at Sirius heart.
Harry was staring at them with a stunned expression on his face, where Dumbledore was she didn't know. Doing the only thing she could she yelled "Expelliarmus!"
Fudge turned in shock and stared at her. "Who are you?" he asked eyes flashing.
"Eleanor Evans. You can't kill him."
"He killed the Potter's."
"You forgot about the muggles." Murmured Eleanor then thinking on her feet said. 2You can't harm my client."
"Client?" asked Fudge, while Sirius was asking the same with his eyes while Harry mouthed it.
"Yes client. He is innocent until proven guilty and as I remember he had no trial you just locked him up, so you need to give him a trial and give me time to cllect some evidence which shouldn't take to long."
"I refuse!"
"Tough luck, he's having a trial whether you like it or not!"
"I'm not letting some little girl push me around."
"Watch the little or I'll sue for heightist comments. Girl? Sexist as well? I don't think the ministry would be happy about that especially over the fact that half of the wizarding population is female. You'll be out of your position before I can say ' I'm minister of magic'"
"That's blackmail. It's illegal."
"So is putting someone in prison with out a trial. Didn't the fact that he could have been set up mean anything to you? Or can't your brain handle it?"
Just then Dumbledore came in smiling though it immediately faded when he saw Fudge. "Cornelius." He said in a strangeled tone. "What are yopu doing here?"
"He's come here to give Sirius a trial."
"I did no such thing."
"Yes you did, or do you want me to write to the daily prophet?"
"That's black mail!"
"No his name is just Black not black mail."
"You know full well and good what I mean!"
"And you know what I mean, so I think we agree. Professor Dumbledore could you alert the ministry?"
"Of course I will Miss Evans."
"Hold on… you can't do that… Preposterous. What so you mean but Professor Dumbledore? Why didn't you call him Albus? How old are you?"
"Thirteen and proud of it!"
"You can't do this you're just a mere pupil."
"Oi!" exclaimed Harry. "Don't insult my cousin!"
"Your cousin? You don't have any magical cousins."
"On the contrary I am Harry's third cousin so as far as we're concerned we're related, now if you don't mind I need to gather my evidence and witnesses." Harry can you stay here with Sirius you can catch up. Just give me a sec."
Eleanor walked over to Sirius. "Don't tell him yet. I have a plan!"
Eleanor rushed around the school and finally got to the Gryffindor tower, quickly said the password and walked in. People looked up at her and quickly asked. "Who are you?"
"A Barrister for a trial that's taking place in a while."
"Why are you wearing Pyjama's?"
"I was woken up early and I didn't get time to change and now if you'll be ever so polite can you please tell me where I can find Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley."
"What do you want with them?"
"Classified now could someone get them?"
Some one left and came back down five minutes later with them both. As soon as Hermione saw her she ran up to her and started a lecture. "Eleanor Evans I can't believe you left without telling me I was-"
"Hermione, you need to go to a trial, it's the trial of Snuffles."
"Really? How the hell did you get caught up in that?"
"It's really long, but involves me blackmailing fudge but before the trial can you please give me some robes to wear I didn't get any time to change."
Hermione quickly grabbed her and hauled her up the stairs while Ron stared.
***
"You are under arrest for trying to black mail the ministry of magic!" shaouted someone while two guards grabbed Eleanor's arms.
"Excuse me?" she asked "I thought it was the minister of magic now get of me before I'm forced to take action."
"As if you could do anything to me." The man sneered
Eleanor quickly got one of her arms free punched one in the face, causing him to get a nose bleed and lipped the other one over her shoulder. "My Bite is a lot worse then my bark."
The few people that were standing around her in the dungeon stared at her. "Well who's stupid enough to try and arrest the martial arts champion of the south east that's just plain stupid."
"I think they should be taken up to the infirmary." Said Dumbledore holding back a smile.
"We should sue!" shouted one of the men.
"As if they'd believe that a little red head could beat two full grown men who are also wizards, I don't think so."
"God I hate little mudbloods."
"What do you all have with the word little?" Eleanor exclaimed. "Your all against different types of blood, you're all heightists (in case you haven't guessed I'm below the average height and I will tell ppl off for calling me small, midget etc.) and you're all against people that aren't totally human. You're as bad as muggles who aren't all stupid either. Muggles are racist-"
"We get the picture." Said someone she didn't recognise.
"And your minister of magic is a misogynist."
"Is he now?"
"Yes he is."
The woman smiled. " Well I guess we should start the trial. Now where is the barrister for Sirius Black?"
"You're talking to her." Answered Eleanor
The judge stared at her shrugged and stood behind a bench. Eleanor went through Harry, Ron, Hermione, Remus, Severus and Dumbledore all of which had the same story.
The Judge sighed. "unfortunately even with all of this evidence we still can't free Sirius we don't have any evidence that Sirius was the secret keeper only his word which isn't enough."
Harry stared wide-eyed. "It's a good job that I have one last witness then isn't it?"
"You didn't stay anything about them."
"I was hoping not to use them. I would like to call James Potter to the stand."
The crowd looked at her in amazement and as if she were mad even Dumbledore stared. Eleanor calmly put her hand in her pocket and took out James who looked very peeved off. She pointed her want at him and took the spell off.
"Howdy." Smiled James
"IMPOSTER!" declared Fudge glaring at James.
"Not so." Answered James. "I am James Orion Potter."
"We can't believe this."
"You can take a paternity test on James and Harry to prove that it is James. He is not under the Polyjuice potion and there is no other way to change into someone else. You can stare at him and not feed him for 24 hours and he will still be James."
"I believe you." Declared Harry standing up from the crowd.
"Harry?" asked James quickly running up to Harry. Harry let go. "Eleanor wouldn't lie to you."
"How do you know this?"
"I have a good judge of character. Plus my Cousin wouldn't lye."
"I prove Sirius Black not guilty." Announce the Judge blinking tears away.
Ahh… how sweet. Thank you to the one review I got for the last chapter I'm glad you all cared so much. So this chapter is dedicated to drum roll please…
Indigo Ziona
Only the next chapter and an epilogue so I'm asking you now in a review please write any questions you have about Eleanor and I mean *any*. From what is he Favourite football team to the food she hates most. It might not make any sense to you and you may feel stupid but please answer in a review I would really aprieciate it.
