Chapter Seven: The Trial
After the meeting, Molly called the teens down for dinner. After dinner Sirius decided to talk to Harry to Molly's displeasure about the basics of what the Order does. When Sirius started to talk about the weapon Molly chase the teens off to bed fuming. Since Harry really knew everything it did not bother him or Ginny. Ron was a bit more reluctant though.
Over the next few days Harry and Ginny were getting it a routine. In the morning Harry and Ginny did there exercises and to Ron's displeasure Ginny got him and Hermione to join them. After the morning exercise session Harry and Ginny helped clean up the house and when no was looking Ginny would pull out her wand that again had the anti detection ring on it and cast a few spell to move thing along faster. After lunch Molly gave them the rest of the day off to do as they pleased. Harry and Ginny work on there plan for the up coming trial and then worked on the ability to see magic. Then they spent the rest of the time with Ron and Hermione or with Sirius.
Two weeks later it was the day of the trial. Mrs. Weasley had picked out a dress for Ginny and ironed Harry's dress clouting. The two thought they were ready for the trial. A few days ago Harry had Dobby return the book back to Malfoy's. Harry and Ginny were going with Arthur to work via the underground. Harry and Ginny took a shower together then got dressed for the day, after breakfast the soul mates and Arthur headed out side to the Ministry.
Half hour later the three were riding the phone both elevator down, then Arthur took Harry and Ginny threw security. The guard named Eric took Harry and Ginny's wand. Arthur then took the two to his office where Arthur meet up with his coworker who told him the hearing was moved to court room ten and started at eight a clock.
The three quickly rush to court room ten a few minutes latter Harry and Ginny walked in the court room. A cold voice told them they were late and to take a seat. Harry and Ginny sat down in the chair that had the chains covering it. Fudge then started the court protocols for the record. Then Dumbledore walked it and told the court he was a witness. Then fudge started to question Harry about all the magic he had done outside of school and the Patronus that he and Ginny cast. Madame Bones asked about the Patronus the court was shock when they heard Harry describe how it destroyed two Dementor's.
Then Dumbledore called for Mrs. Figg who testified about what happen and answered Madame Bones's questions. When Fudge start to denied that there were Dementor's Harry stood and spoke "If it may please the court I like to speak" Dumbledore tried to get Harry to sit down Harry moved out of his reach. Madame Bone's said "Very well Mr. Potter you may speak." Harry said "I can tell you the reason we are all here today and I have a way to prove it. Minister Fudge is hacked off at me because despite his best effectors to hide the fact that Lord Voldermort is indeed back in power. --"
Fudge said "Mr. Potter you are out of line. I am-" Harry interrupted "Under the act 1716 of Wizengamot charter the accused has a right to make any statement he wish with out interruption. Now where was I, oh yes Minister Fudge knows that with Lord Voldermort back it was matter time before he kicked out office. Minster Fudge has been looking for a way to discredit me, my sole mate and Headmaster Dumbledore. Which of course your Under Secretary Umbridge knows, she comes up with a plan to get rid of me for good." Umbridge spoke "Lies all lies boy stop telling lies." Madame Bones said "The accused as right to speak please stay quit."
Harry went on "She ordered two Dementor's to be sent after me in Little Whinging but the plan failed and me and my soul bonded were able to destroy the Dementor's. But Minister Fudge found out about my underage magic and used this to his advantage. He hoped to kick me out of the wizarding world for good. Soon Dumbledore would loss his political power at Hogwarts. In the Ministers mind his job would be safe then. Now you are all probably wandering how I going to prove this, simple this court allows different types of rituals to used as evidences. I call for Merlin's judge against Minster Fudge and Under Sectary Umbridge."
There was a loud gasp in court room most knew what Merlin Judgment was, it was unheard of anyone willing to call upon it. Even Professor Dumbledore was stunned. Fudge stood up and said "I will not allow this, Auror's arrest Mr. Potter." Madame Bones stood up and said "Auror's stand down Merlin Judgment has been called for. Minister Fudge you have no choice but proceed with the ritual." Fudge look green and Umbridge look like she was deer caught in a head light.
Harry said in commanding voice "I Harry James Potter the last heir to Potter line and head of family and willing to risk my Magic to prove that Minister Fudge and Under Sectary Umbridge have wrong me, my soul mate and person I consider a Grandfather Albus Dumbledore for greed and power or plan mischievousness and if I and wrong about what I know to be true I should forfeit my magic to those I wrongly accused. I so mote it be and so help me Merlin."
A golden light appeared around Harry and Ginny the courtroom could feel the wave of power and love coming off Harry and Ginny. The golden light connected with Fudge and Umbridge and a golden ball of light formed between Harry and Fudge. Then the light turn it image of the Minister's office then Fudges voice could be heard "I swear that I will use the full power of the Ministry to destroy Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter who tried to destroy my administration."
The Image change to a dark Island then inside an office the wardens office. Two Dementor's glided in. Umbridge spoke "Go to Number Four Privet Drive Little Whinging and give Mr. Potter a little kiss I do not want him causing a more problems for the Ministry." The Images change back to Minister office. Percy came running in the office he said "Minister, Potter has done magic. Auror are being sent as you ordered in chase of this situation to destroy Potter wand. Fudge grinned and said "Good very good now if I could have Potter thrown Azkaban with his wife this would be perfect. That what I am going to do at Potter's hearing, yes my plan may yet work."
The images fated way and then the golden glow started to pull a red glow out of Fudge and a yellow glow out of Umbridge. The red and yellow glow left Fudge and Umbridge and entered Harry and Ginny. A few seconds latter the golden glow that surrounded Harry and Ginny intensified and then disappeared. The four fell to the ground someone asked what happen.
Professor Dumbledore said "It seem the Minister and the Under Sectary were found guilty, there body now has to adjust to the fact there magic was ripped out of them and given to Mr. and Mrs. Potter. Because Mr. and Mrs. Potter are soul mates there magic is based off of loved the power they absorbed is being purified so it will be compatible with there magic that is so based off of love where as The Minister and Miss Umbridge magic been tatted by there hatred."
A few minutes latter the four got off the ground Harry and Ginny sat down in the chained chair while Umbridge took out here wand and yelled "Curcio" but noting happened. She keep trying to cast spells but nothing happened she was nothing more then a Muggle no magic was left in her. Auror's dragged her out of the court room. Fudge look like he was going to sick he knew that he too was nothing more then a Muggle now.
Madame Bones spoke "Under the law if a person calls upon Merlin Judge against the current Minister and is proven right then that person may choice a person too complete the rest of that Ministry term so Mr. Potter what say you?" The court room was shocked at this. At this moment this fifteen year old had the power to make someone of his choice the Minister of Magic. Harry stood up and said "Madame Bones I like to ask you a few question do you swear on you magic to answer honestly or not at all."
Madame Bones looked Harry over for minute then said "Yes Mr. Potter I do" Harry nodded then asked "Are you willing to do what is takes to fight Lord Voldermort. Whether being recruiting more Auror's or making the Werewolf law fair or what ever it takes to fight this war and win and are you willing to lock up people you know to be innocent to make your self look better?"
Madame Bones said "Mr. Potter yes I would do what ever was needed to fight this upcoming war seek advice from other and make informed decision. If there are laws that are causing our magical breather to seek out You Know Who for help then I will do what ever is takes to make the laws right. And I have always tried to be totally fair as a Judge I would never condemn an innocent person for any reason. Is there anything else Mr. Potter"
Harry said "Yes would you take the position as Minister of Magic?" Bones said "Yes Mr. Potter I will." Harry smiled and said "I have one more request if it's not out of line please tell me if it is. I think Mr. Weasley who has work at the Ministry of Magic for most of his life and has fought for what he thought was right, such as the Muggle protection act and many other things. He should be given a office with a window in it. I think he dissevers it."
Everyone in the room start to laugh. Dumbledore was clearly laughing he almost chocked on a lemon drop. Minister Bones said "I will see what I can do. After the hearing I like to speak to you and your wife no I guess your soul boned and Headmaster Dumbledore. Now Mr. Potter Mrs. Potter you are cleared of all charges and the court gives it apologies to both of you. Court is dismissed."
Professor Dumbledore stood up and said "Well Harry that was interesting I was hoping to get you off but instead you over throw the Minister. But I must say what you did was very risky not only could you have lost your magic but also your soul mate magic you two are linked. But the past is the past we have future look forwarded to, a much bright one at that. You chose well Mr. Potter very well. Now let see now which office to go to I guess it would be the Minister office. Come on you two let she what the Minister wants.
The three walked up stairs and to the elevator. Harry could tell the Ministry was in an uproar letter going all over the place. Dumbledore said "You can tell everyone here at one time was a Hogwarts student. Because would happen in the court was a secret privet business so naturally ever one know exactly what happened in there today." Harry could not help it he laughed he remember Dumbledore saying something like that before in his first year.
A few minutes later the three were waiting out side the Minister office. Ten minutes later Minister Bones said "Come in you three." Minister Bones opened the door for the three and they took a seat in front of the desk. Minister Bones sat behind the desk. Bones said "Well Mr. Potter you have serenely increased my work load a bit. Now let see Headmaster your position as Chief Warlock is yours again it should never have been taken away in the first place. I hope later we can talk about the future of our world but now I have a bit of a staff problem that I have to take care of. But first Mr. Potter, Mrs. Potter you and your brother Ron and the Muggle born Granger are target of You Know Who there for, so things like what happen today don't happen again I writing you four a licenses to practice while term is out. Oh an her are your wands"
Harry and Ginny took back there wands Minister Bones took out a peace of parchment wrote the waver place the Minister seal and the made copy's of it and handed one to Dumbledore and the other to Harry. Minister Bones said "I have these filed. Headmaster if you like I could use your help in getting the Ministry back on track." Dumbledore said "very well but first I going to send these two back home. I sure they what to tell Mr. Weasley and Ms. Granger about today's events." Professor Dumbledore made a Portkey and handed it to Harry and Ginny. The soul mates touched it and a few second later Harry and Ginny were back in the kitchen at Grimmauld Place.
Once Ron saw Harry and Ginny he asked "did you two get off?" Harry and Ginny smile and said "Oh yes we did, we most defiantly got off." Ron said "Oh yes I knew you would you always get away with thing like this." Harry and Ginny told everybody in kitchen what happen at there trial. Mrs. Weasley cooked lunch and everyone eat. Mrs. Weasley gave the teens the rest of day off. Ginny took Harry by the hand led him to there room and Ron and Hermione followed.
Around dinner time a stunned Arthur Weasley appeared in the kitchen. Mrs. Weasley asked "Are you ok Arthur dear, noting bad happen today?" Mr. Weasley said "No nothing bad, Harry here said to the new Minister that I should be given a office with a window in it, boy did I get a office with a window in it." Molly said "Well that great I know how stuffy your office is and the view of the outside world will make thing more comfortable for you." Arthur said "You don't understand the Minister made the Deputy Minister of Magic."
The room went quit and then Fred and George said "That great dad you are now in a better position then even the Malfoy's. Man Harry is given a full trial and when it over he got old Fudge the boot and got our dad promoted. Fudge must be very unhappy. What you did Harry is worthy of use maybe even the Marauder's." Sirius spoke and said "Yes I would have say the Marauder's would have been most impressed and quit proud. You and Gin have done some great work indeed."
Mr. Weasley said "Harry what you did today was very risky indeed. If you were wrong not only would you have lost your Magic but Ginny too would of lost her magic. You two are soul bonded there is nothing I know that is more special then that. I am glad my daughter was able to find you Harry. But please be more careful. The things you do effect not only you but also Ginny."
Professor Dumbledore spoke "Arthur is right Harry what you do does effect others around you. So do be careful about the choice you make. But I what I said earlier was not totally true you see if your wrong, both of your magic would have been pulled out and given to Fudge and Umbridge. But the magic would have killed the both and returned back to you two." Harry asked "Why would it have killed them it makes no sense."
Dumbledore answered "The bond you two have the bond you have is based off of true love. Your bond shares and controllers your magic. You see when you cast a spell when you have strong felling weather it be anger, hatred, love or anything else your spell become stronger more powerful. The most powerful emotion is love and by your magic being governed by your bond your magic is change into something much more powerful. That type of magic would destroy Fudge and Umbridge who have greed and lust for power and hate for those who stand in the of there power. The magic would consume them and destroy them just as your joint Patronus destroyed the two Dementor's. Now after dinner I wish to speak to you and Ginny alone."
