The Return Of The Marauders Part I: Harry Potter And The Sorceror's Stone
Warnings: From here on and forward, Harry's title for Sirius changes, as he becomes his father, as the years they spent together now change things now. As he and Harry start acting like father and son, as year 5 changes things further as he's now acting like a real father here. To him as he and Harry developed a bond that would take his place with James as the years go by now.
Disclaimers: Harry Potter doesn't belong to me, the story belongs to me, everything else belongs to J.K. Rowling and Warner brothers.
Chapter 25: Preparations And Try And Trusts VIII
"Harry is beyond emotionally fragile right now, but asking for his sister's name, I told him and the pained look of heartbreak in his eyes at the reveal. I felt like someone stabbed me in the heart, before he openly bashed Ronald, saying if Ginny was his sister. He'd be treating her like royalty, and not a pest, before Ted told me he finally broke. We have to get your children out of the castle, tonight, before the little monsters get him expelled." she said and they nodded then.
"Why?" Dan asked and Severus said it firmly. "Rosie at this age now, would like this." he said, passing him his copy of mum's picture and he nodded as he wiped the tears off his face. "In adding Jim's features to her, he was staring mesmerized at the picture, staring at his sister." he said and Dan nodded as he wiped the tears off his face, as he tried to control his voice. "I see why the emotional breakdown finally right now, but this is too much." he said and they nodded.
"Relieved I refused, he wanted the duo off campus, so he could be alone with Severus and Remus, and you, Sirius, he's that emotionally fragile." Minerva said and they nodded. "Lilly, she would look just like Lilly, oh god, yes alright I get right now, young lady, damn it. Just where is your brain exactly?!" Emma said in shocked fury and Dan nodded. "That's it right now, you're in big trouble here, sorry baby, we're handling this right now." he said softly and then said it then.
"And instead of the so called orphan being sent away, it's the ones with a family being sent home, or sent away, Medlock and her concerns over Craven pushing too hard to walk. Before they pulled a jail break after Maggie as her character left along with 2/3's of the staff?" Dan asked sternly and she nodded. "Indeed that's it exactly, that Harry wants to stay indoors, but Sirius is taking him to Headland for Christmas this year, at the beach, but Albus is against it."
"I think the headmaster was hoping for either two things here, 1) he does sneak out and with some boards in the bridge rotted through, he takes a dunk in water cold enough to kill. And he catches an infection keeping him over Christmas break right now, or 2) The twins. Now, point out the map that the Honeydukes cellar passage is open and go through that way. He hears my conversation with Cornelius and Rosemerta, loses all rational thought." she said and he nodded.
"Indeed, that's my direct opinion as well, 3 weeks to a month long in separation will not kill them, but he needs some breathing room to be me, rather then we right now." Severus said sternly and Tom nodded. "She and Ron just get back from their latest trip to the village?" Arthur asked and she nodded. "She and Ronald are in my office." she said and Dan nodded. "Then take me to your office then, Professor." he said and she and Severus nodded as Severus said it then.
In following them as he was the one that called her parents. "Harry has told me directly this on things, Harry has been hearing Lilly every time he gets near those things. But three go's a session while Remus was out of commission, and Severus was training him. This has been draining his reserves severely and enough he needs to rest, but this is something now. Your daughter is refusing to understand, what she is also refusing to understand is his feelings."
"His feelings over Peter, he's emotionally exhausted here, over the warnings on Peter, because every time we had a close call it's always after seeing a wilder version of Padfoot here. She has no regard for his fragile state of health, emotionally, Harry's still very fragile emotionally. As a result after getting the truth, that Peter, to save his own hide, betrayed his parents. He's the reason they are dead, and this in turn took Sirius and Remus away, along with Frank and Alice."
"Harry's collapse just underlined the key fact that of how fragile emotionally he really is right now in truth here, it's not physical, these things drain you emotionally. But the dementors have him hearing the biggest one of all, Lilly's murder, based on what Ben told me, he. The night the broom was destroyed, had a flashback memory to him and Ginny in the chamber. Based on what he, Harry, told me, Percy was ready to owl you." she said and Molly and Dan nodded sternly.
"He's said, again and again, just give me some space, some breathing room, but she won't, to her, she does what she pleases." she said as they arrived at her classroom. "It's that child, Sirius, in truth here is this at the moment here, she's created absolute havoc here. I've tried to control her, she must be sent away, in truth, Mr. and Mrs, Granger, this continues. She'll kill Harry for sure if this continues, he has just gotten over a cold, we been watching for a relapse."
"She has no regard for his fragile state of health, she does what she pleases." she said and Sirius crossed his arms. "Medlock's exact words on Lennox right now, that's how severely my daughter and Ronald affected you emotionally. With you saying you're Harry's adoptive grandmother, paternal side?" Emma asked and she nodded. "Yes, our conversation last night followed the very same conversation, only Harry is a 16 year old trapped in a 13 year old body."
"He was saying everything through Severus and me, till I said it deliberately after a fight started." She said and I arrived from behind them finally as she unlocked the door. And then the bolting charm on the door and Emma lifted an eyebrow to that. "You locked her in?" Dan said and she nodded. "And took away their wands as well, but I've had to, Mr. Granger, that's how wild and out of control she really is now, in trying to disregard my orders on him right now."
"Despite the fact we told them several times to give him breathing room, after the polyjuice potion, they still refuse to follow orders." she said and he and Arthur and Molly nodded sternly.
"Mum, dad, what are you doing here?" they said together and he crossed his arms. "Severus told us, that despite them telling you to give Harry some breathing room with dementors here. You still won't, you're being brought home a week early, so pack up your things, young man."
"Young lady, your winter break starts a week early right now, so come on." Molly said and they both paled at that. "Do you recall my double's reaction after she saw Craven's legs, there were two methods of better circulation. That device she used and the other was ice and heat therapy, the second was the one we had to use 11 times. And after your dealing with the obstacle course young lady, I knew it?" Minerva asked her and Hermione paled, realizing she, our version then.
Had now turned into said character and saw them, her, as evil now. "Young lady, young man, do you understand the more powerful the spell, the more draining it is. It's one thing training in said spell, as you get stronger in said spell, but another thing altogether. When you have to use that spell in life or death situations, Severus's remark of discipline your mind. He means this is stretching your mental legs by pushing the limit, the problem now he's over worked those legs."
"He is exhausted, mentally and physically right now, while Harry is just as fragile as Craven is right now, emotionally now, his body is spent right now. But were you paying attention to his refusal to leave the castle walls and grounds this past month, since the game. Because he came down with a cold, unlike you, with 3 go's a session, it's draining his reserves, leaving it. The mental door unlocked, he's fragile, emotionally and physically right now, but between you."
"You wretched girl, and the dangers of the temperatures outside right now with us on the borderline of the North Pole, are you two trying to kill him?" she said and they started shaking, realizing, how our head of house saw this. "Do you really think if he had been born with that spine condition and spent 70% of his time in bed right now. That you helping him to walk about, would never result in this." she said, waving her wand and showing said image and they paled.
"Because his emotional state is serious enough already right now." she said as they listened to her double then. "Your pulse is much too quick, and there is a definite sign of fever in your eyes, it's 50 degrees out there right now, that repeatedly doing this. Your body is suffering exhaustion and raised your temperature, John bring that ice." we heard and he quickly said it. "No!" he said quickly and she said it sternly then to him at that response.
"Despite what you and your cousin may think right now, you are still under my care, your father. He trusts me to do what is best for you and that is precisely what I intend to do." she said and she put it on hold. "We just had to do that, he wasn't resisting, but he deliberately said last night, he didn't want to see you last night, but did the team. How much longer can I take the close calls and reckless behavior, before I decided enough was enough."
"But frankly all these fights between you right now, your attitude young lady, you and your meddlesome boyfriend in all truth now here, your wretched duo. I've had enough of this, as between your duo and the dangers of those demons with him on the loose. And heaven knows what's going to happen if you keep sneaking out right now, I won't stand for it. Not anymore, I won't stand for any of it, so come on, get your stuff together, you're going home right now."
"But I'm keeping you three apart for a few weeks, he is a very emotionally fragile little boy, I have worked too hard and too long this year to keep him alive. That to have him killed, and by one very foolish, pigheaded little girl like you, but the troll. If you had gotten out of the bathroom before that troll got in, or the potion." she said and Hermione swallowed hard at the reprimand, now realizing her behavior had our favorite teacher beyond furious at her then.
"We had enough of this, that separation for a month won't kill you, he needs time." she said and threw her hand up. "Ahh no argument you two, as we keep saying, this is not a we situation, it's a me right now, it always was a me right now. But frankly you're stretching my patience too bloody far right now, Harold is not breaking orders, he's at the pool with Ginevra right now. But he, Ginevra and the twins need some space." Severus said and Ron went white at that remark.
"Ron, I blew the whistle on this, telling her, through Harry, about this, I'm ready to contact mum and dad, and this situation with the cat is making things worse. But what is also straining your friendship to breaking is your refusal to consider their feelings. But instead of Harry ratting you out, I do, and no pun intended here, the twins, Ginny and I stay, you go home." Percy said sternly as he walked in with the prefect badge on his shoulder and they both paled at that.
"You little brat." Billy said sternly and he paled further at that remark. "How do we know one of the imperioed orders was not to kill your own sister, she, like Harry. She is protecting herself from you, by staying with the Potter/Black/Tonks clan this Christmas, let alone Easter. But with the fact you got jolted, again." Percy said and they shouted it out together. "Obliviate!" they shouted and their eyes went white as they collapsed into the desk as they looked up shaking.
"Priori incatatum!" they shouted out and they swallowed hard. "Do you know what you been ordered to do where Ginny is concerned?" she asked him and he shook his head. "He ordered you to kill her, her, your own sister, but first belittlement, and now murder." Minerva said and he went white. "Harry decided after you spent all day looking for him now, to have Ginny sleeping in the infirmary with him, to protect her, we knew you been imperioed here, and with it now."
"You been compulsed again, to argue with him constantly, but nothing you say, or rather the headmaster does, through you, is changing anything." Minerva said and Ron paled, realizing his own wanting to hang onto his friendship with me was the catalyst. And so much, he was trying to keep Ginny away from me, to keep her from stealing me, his best friend. "One option here dad, one option, send Ginny to live with Harry, lock up the fireplaces, no wands, no escape."
"Harry is with Ginny, Ron is on his own, starting now." Percy said and Arthur nodded sternly to him. "Good idea, they're being denied compulsion potions latching onto their catalyst, for Ronald, it's his not wanting things to change, Harry belongs to Ginny. Not friendship, but love, but if this is whatever the muggles call this, it's dangerous enough. That he could kill his own sister, to prevent change." he said and Ron backed into the desk as the implication in fear then.
"Indeed, your father takes Ronald's wand with him to work, I'll stop buying floo powder, and lock and bolt the broom shed shut, so no escape." she said sternly and Ron paled further, realizing their parents were going to any way possible to keep them separated from me and Ginny. While Ginny was living with me over the summer now as Hermione started shaking. Now realizing her callous, insensitive attitude was the reason we been at odds all semester then as Dan said it.
"Do you realize how dangerous you are right now with this train of thought, young man, to quote it now, it's if I can't have him, then no one can. Where I come from that's called crazy jealousy, what it means here, it's you're so jealous of the way Ginny is with Harry. He tells her things, he can't you, and you're so blinded by jealousy, you could cross the line. And you do, this means a one way ticket to Saint Mungos or Azkaban." Dan said slowly and he went white.
"Do you know what his sister would look like if she was still alive?" Severus asked and they shook their heads shaking and he put mum's picture on the table. And they went white as a sheet. "Harry openly criticized you young man, saying if Ginny was his sister, he'd be treating her like royalty, rather then a pest, but like the talking cat says. Take good care of the girls, you'll never know how precious to you they are, till you lose them." he said sternly to him then.
And he swallowed hard, now realizing he insulted my sister, while insulting his then. "You insulted his entire family by saying that about our sister, Ronald!" Percy said sternly and he started shaking in fear then, now realizing his desire to not want things to change. Was his not seeing the bigger picture in emotions to others now, he hurt me too much and she also paled. Realizing it finally that I wanted separation from them as their parents watched them sternly.
"Ron do not say it, things changed, they can not change back, so long as you continue being around the headmaster, you're dangerous, to yourselves and to us. And most of all to Harry and Ginny, so you're going home a week early and she stays, as do the twins and me. A referendum was issued, to get some peace and quiet, but you guys are being sent home a week early." Percy said and Ron went white, and Minerva nodded sternly as he said it quickly to his parents.
"Wait, why just me, and not all of us!" Ron said in shock and he crossed his arms, as Billy, Rick and Jake stood next to him along with Cedric and Penny, Sarah and Rachel. "Excuse me young man, but Ginny is spending Christmas with me, Harry, Draco, his mother and the Tonks's. So she stays with us, you go home early, and I'm not saying where we're going here. With you listening to the headmaster, because you're going to try and show up yourselves now here."
"While the trio decided to want to spend a week with Harry and Ginny, before school lets out for break right now." he said and Molly nodded sternly as she looked at him. "They're not the ones that insulted his sister and family, that cruelly, or callously, you insulted his mother. And his sister by that cold blooded remark." Minerva said and he broke out in a sweat at that remark. Finally realizing in my eyes, as soon as he said that, that he wasn't my friend, not anymore.
"Harry said by this decision, having Ginny live with him, wanting to be seen as me, then we, that you're estranged starting now." she said and he felt his heart shatter at that remark. "He…, he chose Ginny over me, because of what I said about her?" he asked feeling his heart break then. "Her and Rosie." Percy said sternly and he looked down. "You did this to yourself, not Dumbledore, you, young man, Harry changed, grew up and fell in love now, do you get that."
"Never wanted things to change, maybe now you'll know how this feels, because if you were dating Rosie now, if he said that, to you she's not that important, he's your best friend. But Ginny's just your sister, is that it, young man, if things could go back to the way. Said they used to be, then it would be best for everyone?" Arthur said sternly with a warning tone and he paled, now realizing his parents were disgusted with his train of thought then as she also paled then.
"You know what we call that in the muggle world?" Billy asked and they shook their heads. "We call it bros over hoes, meaning adoptive brothers over the sister, or in this case, the woman you love." Billy said and he swallowed hard. "You just want to keep this as brothers, to keep from losing Harry, but you had already, he belongs to Ginny, they're engaged. She's never been just 'your sister' more like you been 'her brother' for a long time." Sarah said and he swallowed hard.
"He doesn't need you right now, not with him this emotionally fragile right now, the news spread through the dorms like a wild fire, after Fred and I described, in detail. Why you're both in such hot water right now, but Rosie, his sister, would be the girls and Colin's age. That to him, he wouldn't be an only child, and you openly bashing Ginny like this right now. That you're insulting Rosie with her, that's why he actually slammed you with that line!" he said and they both paled.
"They're not the ones trying to interfere in Harry's relationship with your sister, Harry said it directly here though he and Percy contacted us and reported you to us. Before this results in the situation with replacing the broom, for a stronger one now, Harry just did it for you. And now you're the ones in the hotseat here now." Dan said sternly and they both paled at that. "Young lady can't you control the cat here, and what about you, locking up the bloody rat right now."
"Want to tell me here in why you're trying to drag your sister back with you, or is this once again, only about your feelings and to hades with their's?" Dan said sternly and they started shaking, realizing I wanted to be seen as me, and be with my girlfriend. "Turns out the cat was trying to force him into locking up good Scabbers, before he accidentally gets the wrong one." I told him and the Grangers nodded and Hermione swallowed hard as they both paled at that.
"Nice timing though Uncle Dan, Arthur, dad, but ever since the term started, he and Hermione have been trying to interfere. And in our relationship, despite that being illegal, Ginny's my betrothed, but she's been trying to hound me on my classes. Shove me at Cho, though she's dating Cedric, and they're trying to get me out of the castle." I said sternly and he nodded. "But no matter what it is, always no, right?" Arthur asked and I nodded as I stepped forward then.
"Yeah always no, no to me giving Cho a chance, when she's dating Cedric anyway, no to dropping my favorite classes. I love taking Arithmancy, I'm also taking extended advanced dueling training, as an auror prodigy right now and Ancient Runes. I can handle the work load, my grades nos top everything dad and mum have now, and no to not seeing Ginny. I love Ginny, she is my everything, keeping me feeling normal, no to leaving the castle, I have orders here."
"Those orders are stay in the castle, I stay in the castle, cub auror, as such right now, dad gave me orders, as did the quartet all aurors at my department, and I'm a cadet." I said and Sirius smiled then. "Nice wording son, as a cadet you have orders by your superiors, me being one of them, they say stay on campus, you stay on campus. But if this was a further attempt to revoke your status, nice try, not falling for it now." Arthur said gently in approval and Sirius nodded.
"Hey pup, you doing okay son?" he asked and I nodded. "Yeah, welcome home dad, I missed you, I'm glad you're home." I said and he gave me a hug then I tightened my arms around him. "Sirius what's your position if you were muggle then magical, in nobility?" Dan asked and he explained that gently. "Jim, Amos and I are all earls, the next rank up is grand duke, that's Bill's position, he reports directly to the minister." he said and Dan nodded in shock to the news then.
"Jesus, alright so Harry is Master of the manor when you're not here, he just decided to use his position to actually get some separation from our kids here?!" Emma said in shock and he nodded. "It's also why we have house elves as servants, because we're nobility, in magical form, Harry's friends in nobility are all young wizard lords and ladies. The 8 in truth, the girls, Draco, Cedric and Neville." he said gently and she and Dan nodded sternly and the duo both paled.
"Then it's no wonder, if your mother was still alive, she's lady Potter." Dan said and I nodded to him. "Exactly Uncle Dan, only they never looked up positions so though we brought this world to borderline 21st century, we're still exercising King Edwards time. The School itself is the size of the Craven Manor, Grandma is head of our side of the school. Uncle Sev, his, Professors Flitwick and Sprout their's, if that manor was a school and with that in mind right now, you two, guys."
"You ever check your symbol, as a pisces?" I asked and he paled at that remark. "The darkside traits to your sign now, but 1) They tend to be sensitive and moody. 2) They overthink, 3) they suffer from low self-esteem. 4) They are indecisive. 5) They have an escapist tendency. 6) They avoid taking responsibility. 7) They are lazy, 8) They tend to be weak-willed now. And 9) they are very manipulative." I said and he paled at that, realizing he never read astrology signs then.
"The Virgo, but 1) Fussy: Virgo is a person who often gets lost in details. It's very hard to please a Virgo. They're focused on doing things in the finest way, including every single detail. This is one of the bad traits of a Virgo. 2) Worrying: Worrying comes on the way of Virgo because they are very scared thinking about their future, Virgo is known for overthinking, be it about anything even their future. This makes Virgo worry and ponder about the future very much now here."
"So 3: Critical) They are known as expertise in criticizing. Virgos love passing comments on someone's work. They will hardly like someone's work if they are in a team and is ready to criticize other's work. And it is known as one of Virgo's bad traits. 4) Meticulous: It may be difficult to work with a Virgo because they will ask you to rub your skin to an extreme level just to make the work as the finest one, leaving even a single detail out makes a Virgo annoyed."
"And this trait of their's makes everyone around them annoyed, because not every situation can be handled in this way. They are very demanding in nature. 5) Suppress their emotions: Just to be the perfectionist and handle things being rational they suppress their feelings. And this is one of the worst traits of a Virgo because they suffer inside just to show the world. They are logical in nature." I said, naming each one off and with every word, she went more pale, at her traits.
"So 6) Pessimistic: They tend to analyze things in every way and very quickly, they will see the negative aspects first than the positive. Before doing anything, and is considered to be one of the bad traits of a Virgo. 7) Doubtful: They will not believe you unless they see it from their own eyes, they are very skeptical. About everything, be it human or any kind of task, they will look in every aspect of it and then move ahead, that this makes other people feel awkward now."
"And because of their skeptical behavior. 8) Stubborn: They are headstrong and won't listen to you unless they get their work at an outstanding level. They are very stubborn when it comes to perfectionism. 9) Confused: When things don't work the way they want, they tend to be confused and they confused others too. Their want for perfectionism even makes them confused and it becomes hard for them to make a correct decision, because they look for approval."
" While 10) Judgemental: They want to do everything perfectly, wanting everything perfect makes them judgemental in nature. They will judge every single thing that the people around them are doing. Making it one of Virgo's bad traits. This is you in your entirety Mione, but mix those traits with being a highly powerful witch, this could lead to your self destruction." Sarah said and she swallowed. "While for my sign, I'm a Leo now." I said and named off mine then.
"But 1) Possessive: Leos are known to be prone to jealousy and possessiveness, 2) Egoistic: A Leo's pride is something that is better left unchallenged, which explains. In why Severus got so irritated with me at times, 4) Impatient, a Lion wants it and he wants it now. 5) Self-centred: Never expect that a Leo would put you before themselves, 6) Dominant behavior. I finally reached that after the headmaster destroyed my life for a prophecy." I said and they paled then.
"While 7) Opinionated: One of Leo's biggest negative personality traits is that they are extremely opinionated. 8) Attention-seeking: Leo's are also known for wanting all eyes on them. 9) Naïve: Because Leos have a big heart. And are always open to helping others, they are frequently disappointed, 10) Arrogant, my pride in doing things my way can get dangerous. While 11) Stubborn, I'm very stubborn here, the point is, we all have sides to our horoscopes."
"Some are good, others bad, but how do we expect to work together to over come these traits, if you, we, never think about the bad sides of these traits?" I asked and they both looked down, realizing I had changed and become the wisest of the 3 of us now. "But now those traits are combined with compulsion charms now, and with that in mind. If this keeps up, the ending results are going to be this is going to get us killed, so with that in mind, Ronald, Hermione."
"But do you think focusing all your time on the greater good has anything to do with being a man, or woman, we're 13, we're teenagers. The adults say, again and again, to leave it to the adults, when the adults, our side look at us, what do they see. Do they see warriors, or do they see a group of 12 to 17 year olds, to them, the word gives it away, baby, my baby. No matter how big we get, to them, still baby." I said and our parents nodded in agreement to that then.
"We already gave the adults enough to weaken him, we just start the salvage, but the war is over before it even begins." I said, moving my foot and looked down and saw the cat sitting there. "Meow." she said and I nodded. "Yeah love you too girl, kitten misses baby sister kitten, wants baby kitten back, at least then, not an only kitten. Kitten is emotionally fragile, with bad Scabbers on the run." I said and she mewed and rubbed her head against my leg comfortingly.
"But I think it's best we cool things down, time for separation, we may find our way in this world someday later, but for right now, Ronald, I need to go my own way." I said and he went white, realizing I wanted to be free to be seen as me, rather then we. "What are you saying?" Emma said then and Hermione felt her heart fall, now realizing if this kept up, I was severing all ties with them. "To be myself, I need to be seen alone, I stand alone." I said in answer to that then.
"Once chosen as a champion, you stand alone, but I was already standing alone, before I met either of you, because of that scar. I already got my strategy plotted out for the championships, during the tournament, I know what to do, but like the games. I need to focus, but how can I, if you're constantly arguing with me about everything?" I asked, as she felt her heart break, now realizing Dumbledore was the catalyst for this, as Ron looked down in pain at this remark then.
As I arrived in my gym clothes then for winter then, my hair slightly damp from said swim at the pool then with a towel wrapped about my shoulders then. And as I leaned against Percy's shoulder with my arms crossed, before the twins, Ginny, the girls and Oliver also appeared. And all of them were dressed and looking the same way, with being dressed in sweats now. And carrying towels around their necks, from being at the pool then as Ginny dried her hair off.
As Molly saw my messy hair all nice and combed back away from my forehead and Sarah, the trio and Ginny smiled. "You know I normally never see your spikey hair all combed back, gods you look adorable." Molly said and I smiled gently at that. "Thank you, well I recently started with the look, since Ginny and I got together, if I was said character, this was after said bath. In this case, it was said dunk in the pool, but nothing happened." I said and she nodded gently.
"With the water that warm and you supervised here, yes I get the point, but we're not leaving you cubs alone for long here, so don't try it, but wait till you guys get out of college. And get your own place, with my grand babies the newest Potters of the next generation." Molly said smiling in amusement, knowing immediately in what I meant and Sirius hid a chuckle. "Alright young man, keep it clean here." he said and I nodded as Ginny leaned against me smiling then.
As Fred positioned himself behind me to catch me in case my legs chose now to give out then as Ginny gripped my upper arm gently at that. "I'm okay, just bedrest this weekend, as I give my muscles the real break they need, it's okay my love." I said and she nodded as she left her head against my shoulder and the duo started shaking. "With the horcrux gone there is no reason for said suicide mission, we found them all, all that is left is the snake and Gaunt's ring now."
"And we're done, 'but after that, things change back right, we can go back to being a trio again, no Ginny right, please say no, no Ginny', that what you're going to ask." I said and they paled. "Well the answer is no, so long as you listen to him, you're dangerous, to me, to yourselves and to everyone else. How do we know one of the compulsions wasn't to kill Ginny, when even that won't negate my position as head of my family?" I asked and he went white at that remark.
"Repeat, so long as you're always following him, compulsed or not, you're dangerous, I severed all contact with you, but only the oldest of the family. Only they can negate connections between a marriage, and between Ancient and Noble houses. Bill is the oldest of you, he said yes, so nothing changes." I said and he started shaking in pain. "But don't start crying, you did this to yourself, but you're just a 10 year old throwing a temper tantrum." I said and he flinched then.
"You think I would never make this choice after you insulted my sister, through Ginny!" I asked and they went white. "Well no I would, you just put yourself in that hole so deeply there is no way out except for a rope or ladder, until you decide, me or him, we're through!" I snapped and they put their hands over their hearts, as I knew that destroyed them. "And maybe now you'll know how this feels, you have everything I want, grow up!" I snarled and he swallowed hard.
Now realizing I was protecting Ginny from them at that remark in shock and fear, as I wrapped my arm around Ginny and she snuggled into my chest and he started shaking. "Yeah that's right, you cold blooded git, this is not some crush, it's love, she is my wife. I will not have you bad mouthing my wife, simply because you want things to change back." I said, saying the words and he swallowed hard, seeing a side of me they normally never saw as I went further.
"But, in truth here right now, is being in love, that I decided my family came first over reckless adventures, I already destroyed 5 of those things, you there or no. So why, why should I continue with the reckless behavior, I'm the Scion of the Ancient and Noble house. Of Potter, Ginny is my betrothed, we're engaged, my parents want me to carry on my family. And I will, the new Potters of new direction, she's my wife." I said and he went as pale as a ghost then.
"But she's not 'just' your sister, more like you're 'her' brother, but again when you fall in love and meet your in-law family, your priorities change. We brought this world to the 21st century, but as wizards we mate for life, nothing's going to change back, she's my betrothed. Now get used to it now, because that mission has now been negated in year 6." I said and they paled then. "Yes indeed, and we never been happier you chose this." Molly said and I nodded to her.
"I love your daughter she is everything to me, but 'his' desperation is getting dangerous, but what if one of said compulsions was to kill her, his own sister?" I asked and she nodded sternly then. "And that's why she's coming to live with us every summer and Easter break, so long as these two are around the headmaster. Right now, then they're dangerous, to themselves, you and everyone else." Sirius said and Ron went white at that, realizing it finally I had it with him.
"Heat therapy worked, I take it baby?" Emma asked and I nodded. "Yeah the pool was like a hot tub, one the size of an olympic sized swimming pool, my muscles are loosening. But not there yet, the team, Ginny and Percy are not leaving my side whatsoever. Severus was right though in truth, I need a break, but that cold could have been a lot worse right now. But they're, or the headmaster, has been arguing about everything through them." I said and they all nodded then.
"I did warn you Ron, sooner or later, I get sick of you treating me like rubbish, things change they can not change back, my cloak's carrying the Potter family emblem. I am the betrothed of the new House of Potter, get used to it." Ginny said sternly and he started shaking. "And maybe now we can get a week of peace and quiet without all the belligerent behavior now. And it's because everyone, from the youngest, to their class, to the 12, to our classes now in truth."
"We're all getting sick and tired of all the fighting you two, until we all say, through Harry, that enough is enough, if we have to get you guys out of the dormitory. Just so we can get a month worth of peace and quiet well then so be it." Angelina said sternly to this. "But I wish he would talk to me, I wish he wouldn't, maybe I should talk to him, maybe I shouldn't talk to him. But come on enough already here, if you're just trying to further torture us, we say you leave."
"Now, as we had all we can take of the fighting right now!" George said sternly and Ron swallowed hard at that, shaking. "You ever consider the 6 of us, Percy, Sarah, Jack, Rachel, Bill and Darrel decided to end this ourselves, and say to her through Harry right now. What is going on in the dormitory, before the cat kills Scabbers junior, or Uncle Pad gives him that broom. Or, to be perfectly honest, get our parents to interfere, before you destroy your trio right now?"
"But we all had enough already you guys, enough, this is ending right now, before the championships, we need to focus, Ron. Really we need to focus, we haven't won, since Charlie left, next year the 20 of us are switching schools. But this is next to last for Oliver, we want our last year with him as our captain!" Katie said and Oliver said it with a stern tone then. "But he can't focus if you're both bugging the hades out of him, so enough!" he said with a growl then.
"Are you trying to insure the books come to pass, because we all think this, we're not listening to the headmaster, not anymore, the old tosser is still trying anything he can. To control Harry, this year is the beginning of the end for him, the tournament starts the end of his planning. So stop it, we're never listening to him again, we're not staying on campus this Christmas. We're going home, end of story, first you, then the twins and me." Percy said and she nodded sternly.
"Good idea, Percy, send her to stay with the Black/Tonks's, beginning now for their courting, she's his fiancé, she should spend time with him and Sirius. They and the Tonks's are the extended, but no to Harry staying here every Christmas and Easter holidays. No to the entire summer at the Dursleys, no to Poppy always being the one to treat him. No, no, no, no, that no matter what he says, it's no." Arthur said sternly and Percy nodded gently as Ron went pale.
"But to repeat Harry, you want to be a lone lion and lioness in our dorm in our family pride with the rest of our pride switching schools. Harry's our brother-in-law, whether you like it or not, he's dating Ginny, that if I have to end this myself, with the twins with me. And we will, but that's enough of this already, we're anti Dumbledore now, this interference. It's illegal, that's enough of this already, don't make me do this, if I have to suspend you I will, leave them be."
"I mean it you two, leave them be, before I tell the Professor to have you home schooled for 2 months next year." Percy said sternly to them. "That goes for us too Ron, Mione, enough is enough, Harry is family, he's our brother-in-law he's Ginny's boyfriend and future husband. As for those classes who are you kidding exactly, and what about his emotional state. This is Lennox, Craven and Mrs. Medlock all over again, till our own head of house has to take charge."
"Harry's wracked up enough, knowing the truth, this is not a we, but a me, enough!" Fred said in finality at this situation. "I think that makes the point you two, to get away from you, to be his own person, a referendum was issued on prevention over cure. Before you destroy your friendship completely right now in truth, but this attitude of your's. You expect me not to place you on restriction as your brothers don't mind him dating your sister, to me and your father."
"We want this." Molly said to him sternly. "Uh huh, yes alright Ginny, you, the twins and Percy can stay here, Ronald get your stuff together, you're coming home right now." Arthur said sternly and he swallowed hard. "Minerva, you best hang onto her wand and his with her, because there is no leaving the house to get back up here." Dan said and she nodded. "See you next semester, guys." I said firmly then and they sighed as we ended it at that remark then.
"Does that make the point, now that we had to do this twice, they're scared out of their minds, after the damn collapse off the broom." I said and they swallowed hard. "I mean it, I mean every word, so long as you listen to him, imperiused or not, we're through, I stand alone." I said and she swallowed hard at that remark. "This is my sister, take it in, Ron." I snarled, slamming mom's 10 year old picture on the table and he swallowed hard at the remark then shaking then.
"You insulted my family, you git, my mother, my sister, you insult their memories by talking about Ginny like that, but names, Petunia, Lilly, Rose, or Rosie. My father decided to keep the flower manner names ongoing, so, Rosie, my Rosie, my sister. If I was Charlie's age, it's you take your hands off my sister, or now you have no choice, you hag. Now you have to take me instead, she drives me nuts, but I love her anyway." I said sternly and he swallowed hard then.
"But it's never been, she's 'just your sister', more like you been 'her brother' all this time, but don't embarrass yourself here, because after you stabbed me in the back. For the damn tournament, there is no way in heck I will ever forgive you for this. She is my wife now, while Rosie is my sister and dating Colin, if she was still alive, but you are such a jealous git. I had all I can take from you now, but if Rosie was alive, she's a princess." I said and he swallowed hard.
Ron looked up at her and then back to Molly, who was looking at him with barely contained anger. "Well Ronald, I'm waiting!" she said warning and Ron paled at his mothers glare, he swallowed visibly. "I mean, look, Harry is my best mate and Ginny was just my sister, see." he said and I crossed my arms. "She's been more than 'Just your Sister' for a long time, in fact it's been more 'Your her brother' than the other way round." I said sternly to him at that remark.
Ron flinched at Harry's words and glare. "If things could have gone back the way they were, it would have been better, for everyone." he said and that did it, as Ginny stood at her chair and leaned over the table toward Ron. "That sounds familiar, to paraphrase 'I took the initiative, I did what had to be done'." Patrick said sternly and he went pale then. "What had to be done, hmm, for whom exactly?" I added and he went white, now realizing I sounded like Patrick now then.
"Better, better for whom exactly, I was happy till you pulled this stunt, now that Dumbledore can't distract me, he's dead, the quintet don't mind, nor do your parents. You do this, because I grew up, I fall in love and the person I had with is your sister, you want me. Now, to die of loneliness, never having found love, just to make me an easier target here. For the old buzzard, so he can sacrifice me at the right moment?" I asked and the quintet flinched, knowing it then.
That-that was a low blow. "Ow, yeah if we all did this, we destroyed her emotionally, but no, we're fine with you dating and marrying Ginny, she's our dear, dear Ginny." Fred said and Charlie, Billy and Percy nodded. "Guys you don't mind, we're betrothed, before I give her the engagement ring, after the headmaster does Gaunt's ring?" I asked and they smiled. "Not at all Harry, welcome to the family, my brother." George said for all of them and Molly smiled in relief.
"Thank you guys, thank you so much for understanding, you are my favorite big brothers." Ginny said smiling in gratitude and the quintet nodded as they hugged her. "Love you too baby, for right now, stage 1, before year 3 and you reach stage two the next 4 years." Percy said and Molly nodded in agreement to his opinion. "Agreed, as of right now and year 1 for you love, stage 1, then Harry's 3rd year to sophomore year, stage 2." Arthur said in agreement gently.
"But again, are you just trying to make it easier for the old buzzard to control me, till he sacrifices me at the right moment?" I asked sternly and he swallowed hard. "No, no that's what I meant, I want us to stay a trio!" Ron said shaking at that. "We're not those kids anymore, we're 12 to 18, in these bodies, I grew up, found love and went on now. And to become everything my double's epithet was now here in truth, title of the Hero With No Fear now."
"But better for everyone, huh, better for who, what had to be done, hmm, for whom, why would a man with a long glorious career. Turn on everything he fought for, the second a friend falls in love?" I asked and he paled. "What? Better for who? Certainly not me and Harry either!" Ginny said as she thrust her hand forward "See this Ron! Know what it is? Can your feeble little pea-sized brain comprehend what I'm wearing?" she snarled at him as I'd given her the ring earlier.
As Ron's eyes fastened on the ring gracing Ginny's hand, his eyes widening in shock. "Your en-engaged," he sputtered in shock then. "But, but…" he said shaking in fear, realizing nothing was changing back. "Yes Ron, we're engaged. Get it through your thick skull Harry and I are going to be together no matter what you want." she said as she shook her head and got a exasperated look on her face as I hugged her as she said it sternly to this as she looked at him angrily then.
"Look Ron, I'm not really that mad at you for your treatment of me, I kind of wrote you off because of the way you treated me after my first year. You tried your damnedest to keep me away from you, Harry and Hermione. It hurt at first but I grew to see it for what it was, you were jealous that they could like me too. You hated the fact that Harry paid any attention to me and tried to keep us apart. Guess what, it didn't work." she said sternly to him at that remark.
And Ron got indignant, "You don't know what you're talking about," he said savagely, before I looked at him in hate and Ron looked at me, before seeing the anger in my eyes and said it with a bit of a wild look in his eyes. "Harry, Harry, please mate, you know I only wanted what I thought was the best for everyone, didn't you. I mean come on, we're best mates and all, let bygones be bygones, I mean you've got to forgive me, don't you?" he said, shaking at that.
Hearing that, I lost my temper "You arrogant buzzard, you think that just because we were best mates once that I can just forgive you for hurting Ginny. And betraying me like it was nothing, are you mad, because I won't by doing this, you ripped out the connection. You insult my family, you called me a cheater, you, instead of sticking up for me during the club. Immediately go along with it, and it takes nearly being killed to prove it?" I said and he swallowed hard at that.
"To repeat, if she was alive, I'd treat her like royalty, rather then a pest, grow up." I said and he started shaking even more then, now realizing I was furious at them. "You are such an idiotic git, grow up, nothing's going to change back, we went in a new direction, get used to it now. But I stand alone as a triwizard champion, repeat, I stand alone, but I'm an auror prodigy. As such, this is my job, I'm going in to arrest Junior, I don't want eternal glory, it's Cedric's turn now."
"So grow up, your desire to be the best of your brothers now in truth here, said is nothing next to my desires to have my family back!" I snapped and he swallowed. "If I have to get space, by actually having you removed a week earlier, then so be it, I had it with this. But that year is not about you, it was never about you, it's about me, my family, my emotional state. In the adults eyes, I will not disobey their orders, they say stay, I stay!" I said in finality and he swallowed.
"All 1st and 2nd years want to hang out that weekend, with us on downtime, with a back to back trip to Hogsmead that weekend, if these two cross the line that night." I asked and they nodded, smiling in delight. "Pool version of Volleyball, big brother!" I heard one of the second years call out and they chuckled as Fred ruffled the back of said student's head and I smiled. "Yeah just imagine 'head's up' 'whoa', splash, 'alright wise guy, watch where you're aiming here with it.'."
"That ball cub, come on!" Katie said, as Cunningham started laughing at that. "We end up that pool as a result of your messing around, whoever did it, is getting it on full blast cubs. So take it down a notch, alright." Ted said with an amused smile. "As for this, so long as you never recover from that addiction, to being around the headmaster, his spells, you're dangerous. To me, to yourselves and most of all, to the pro ministry side of the order." I said and they both paled.
"But you're my enemy, so long as you listen to the old buzzard, get that or do I have to draw picture?" I said and she went white, me or Dumbledore was my ultimatum. "Nice comparison baby, that's a good way to put it right now, if we have to keep you separated. To prevent them from killing you, because you're running on fumes and we will right now." Cunningham said and Minerva nodded sternly and Hermione swallowed hard at that news as Percy crossed his arms.
"But no more, I'm the scion of the Ancient and Noble house of Potter, I'm being like every other wizarding lord in the grouping, I have a life, I have family. What the headmaster wanted is no more, I have no reason to sacrifice myself, once I get the one in me. Out of me, but Ginny, she is not much younger then we are: 1 year, 15 months, that's the correct age. Now, to be falling in love with the next age group down, where I come from." I said and he swallowed hard at that.
