Epilogue 1:
Harry, Bill, and Sean became known as the Heroes of Hogwarts, and their great victory became a national holiday in the wizarding world. For Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, and the other students at Hogwarts, the next year truly was a great one. Without the looming threat of Lord Voldemort, they were free to enjoy their youth and concentrate on their studies and enjoying their childhoods. There seemed to be no end to the promised festivities, and the students enjoyed numerous fireworks displays, great feasts, and dances.
Harry was once again captain of the Quidditch team and incorporated elements of the training Sean had put him through into training the team. Needless to say, all the members of the team, Ron Weasley-keeper, Sheila Davids (a fourth year who was Katie Bell's replacement), Demelza Robbins, and Ginny Wesley-chasers, and Jimmy Peakes, and Richard Coote-beaters, were in excellent physical condition, and were strong in body and mind. At the end of the season, the Gryffindor Quidditch team of that year was regarded as the greatest in the history of the school.
Harry and Hermione went to all of the dances and other events together and were always the focus, the hero of Hogwarts and his ladylove. Ron and Harry remained best friends, but Harry was a lot more focused on his studies and ended up helping Ron with a lot of his classes--Harry even helped Hermione on a few occasions. They all graduated with exceptional marks and went on to successful professions.
Ron became a professional Quidditch keeper and even played for the England World Cup team. He and Demelza Robins married soon after Ron became a professional keeper and had a very happy life together with six children.
Hermione and Harry continued seeing each other after graduation, after a few months, they were married and moved into 12 Grimmauld Place for a while before moving to Godric's Hallow to help bring new life into the town, which began to prosper after the boy who vanquished Voldemort moved in.
Harry became an Auror, eventually becoming head of the Auror's Office, and Hermione became a great healer. About a year after they were married, Harry and Hermione had their first child, a baby boy that they named James Sean Potter. They would later welcome a girl, Lily, two more boys, Sirius, and Albus, and lastly another daughter, Judith, into the family.
Fleur had a healthy baby boy about nine months after Sean went back to the monastery. She and Bill named him Sean William Weasley and named Sean Alexander O'Sullivan the child's godfather. Bill decided to resign his post at Gringott's and take up Auror training. He graduated in the same class as Harry Potter and the two of them were partners until Bill's retirement and Harry's promotion to head of the office, Bill's experience as a Curse-Breaker made him ideal for the post.
Minister Moody enjoyed a very informative and eye-opening tour of the Order of St. George monastery in Ireland. He and the Priest became very good friends, consulting often through their special mirrors, and the alliance between the Wizard world and the Order of St. George was never again dissolved.
The alliance became a great one, with the Order of St. George training Aurors and Obliviators in combat and arming them with swords and other weapons, and the Ministry of Magic providing the Order of St. George with such magical tools as invisibility cloaks, floo powder, and other magical tools that one didn't have to be a wizard to use. Aurors and Obliviators would often work together with Knights, utilizing the Aurors ability to apparate, and the Knights skills in combat and tracking.
Shortly after the Great Battle at Hogwarts, as it would come to be known, Lupin and Tonks were married in a solemn ceremony at the same place where James and Lily Potter had been married several years ago. Tonks took good care of Lupin and the two of them enjoyed a long and happy life together, with three daughters…none of whom were werewolves.
Kingsley Shacklebolt also made history by being the first Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in a long time to return for a second year. He came back again, and again, and again, in all he taught for thirty years before retiring.
Sean returned to Mullingar to pay respect to his parents and go through the house where Raiganzi had first crossed his path. The pain of the memories being too much, Sean moved to Blackrock, Ireland to take Harry's advice and become a boxer.
He fell under the tutelage of a great trainer named Sal Bagstram, an infamous trainer known for scaring off fighters with his brutal training methods. Sean submitted himself completely to the training, some of which involved Sal putting him on a high protein diet, having him lift lots of big weights, and pounding his stomach with a sledgehammer while he did sit-ups.
Sean put on thirty pounds of muscle to make it into the heavyweight division and was chosen to represent the Republic of Ireland at the Summer Olympics. As Harry had predicted, Sean was unstoppable. In every single bout, he landed an unprecedented 100 percent of his punches and won by knockout. He was subjected to eighteen different drug tests by the IOC because they could not believe that a fighter as young as he was, and an amateur nonetheless, could be as strong or as effective as he was.
Sean won the Gold Medal, and was the subject of one of the most memorable photos in sports history when he took off his headgear and walked around the ring after the Gold Medal bout waving the Irish flag, and later when he sang along to the Irish National Anthem in the native Irish language. Sean became a national hero to his country and was very much honored there.
After the Olympics, he turned pro and was known as Sean "the Slaughter Man" O'Sullivan. He furthered his appeal to the people of Ireland by training in a black Under Armour sleeveless tee with the words "Celtic Warrior" on the front and "Erin go Braugh" on the back, and fighting in trunks with the pattern of the Irish flag and the word "Laoch" (Irish Gaelic for "warrior") across the waistband.
Spectators at his fights, going back to the Olympics, would chant "Laoch" as he fought. He eventually became the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world and retired undefeated after a record setting fifty fights, with thirty title defenses and all his wins by technical knock out or knock out.
Between fights during his career, he would go back to the monastery and train Knights and new recruits. He also introduced new elements of training into the Order such as weight lifting and jumping rope. He started preparing for retirement by having a cottage built about thirty miles away from the monastery in the Cliffs of Moher. The cottage was ready by the time he had retired and he lived there for the rest of his life, training Knights and new recruits for the Order that he so loved.
Ginny was made seeker and appointed captain for the Gryffindor Quidditch team after Harry graduated. She did very well in her schooling and thought of becoming a healer like her friend Hermione. She wore Sean's crucifix around her neck for the rest of the time she was at school and after, always dreaming of the day when we would come to claim it and, she hoped, her. Bill kept her posted on Sean's boxing career, sending her Muggle newspaper clippings and magazine articles, and when he sent her a poster that had been made of Sean standing shirtless in a meat locker with his newly buffed and chiseled physique, his Order of St. George brand visible, his arms at his sides, and with a meat hook in each of his hands, Sean quickly became a pinup in all the girls dorms at Hogwarts.
After her graduation, Ginny decided to work for a while until she thought of what exactly she wanted to do for a career. She eventually got a job at Gringott's; with Bill's recommendation she was a shoe in, and spent the next several months attending weddings for her brothers and friends from Hogwarts (including being maid of honor for Harry and Hermione's). Then, three days before the first Christmas after she graduated from Hogwarts, something happened that would change her life forever.
