Chapter 11
Minerva's Fury
A loud slap could be heard in the Headmaster's office as Minerva vented her fury on Albus -too-many-bloody-names- Dumbledore "Albus, how could you!?" She paced in her fury as Severus looked on with Flitwick and smirked "I never knew why Hermione and Hadrian withdrew? I bloody well know now. You took him from his real parents after they had given birth to him, three days old! And then you gave him to Lily and James preying on their gullible natures!"
Albus sunk into his comfy seat seemingly trying to disappear as he tried to speak and make excuses.
"I wanted to help James and Lily, you knew of their fertility problems, it was for the greater good!" Albus tried to say that with a straight face but Minerva got that tic in her eye that meant she was going to hit him again. He winced, fully prepared to be thoroughly scolded by an extremely angry deputy headmistress
"You took advantage of all of us, Dumbledore, you told us that Hadrian was a twin to the baby that had died in Lily's womb, for all that is sacred, why?" Severus asked barely holding onto his temper
"I wanted a boy that fit the prophecy" Dumbledore mumbled. Severus lost his temper thoroughly and threw himself at the headmaster, determined to punch the old buzzing interfering manipulative git. "You killed my Lily-flower!" Dumbledore started to chuckle and then he laughed loudly as he brandished his wand before shouting "Obliviate!" he missed Severus as the Potion's master ducked, and Minerva shouted "Expelliarmus!" and the elder wand landed in her hand. Albus sneered at her as Severus wept. Filius Flitwick helped Severus to his feet as he kept his beady goblin's eye on his 'former' employer.
"Ha, I made sure that Tom Riddle got the prophecy! I was also there that night. I made sure no one could escape that night. Not Tom, or James or Lily. I made sure with a rune. Scratched into the foundation stone. The boy who lived, hahaha, all that rot. I knew that I had to make you believe that little freak was James and Lily's son. Did you really think I would welcome a tribrid, a creature into Hogwarts without 'it' fitting my agenda, my plans for a better world!" Albus raged as he found himself cornered by all of the angry professors. "Hadrian, maybe a creature blooded boy, but he is brave, he is more than you will ever be, because he comes from a royal bloodline, I knew Klaus in 1927 when he came to Britain, he sent his sired children here, and changed their names to Michaels. Klaus for all his bad deeds changed. For the better. You think that your 'greater good' is all that matters. So I have a back-up plan. Dobby!" The little elf appeared "What can Dobby do for Headmistress Kitty-cat?" Albus sneered and then moved towards her but Flitwick yelled out "Protego Maxima!" A bubble shield formed in front of Minerva.
"This person in front of us, lied about Harry Potter and took him from his real parents in America. He is a murderer of countless Wizards and witches all in the name of 'the greater good' Defend your friend Harry!"
Dobby's eye twitched and he held out his hand "I bind this evil wizard to his office" A white ball of light formed in his small hand and Dumbledore felt the Hogwarts Lady of Magic cut him off from the wards surrounding the castle.
He bellowed "You cannot stop me, you fools!"
"Oh, were you expecting Fawkes to come to your rescue. He is bound to the school as a protector of the children, he is no longer your slave!" Minerva shouted back. Dumbledore slumped to the floor. "By the way, I quit" Severus slammed his resignation letter on the table, he turned and left "So do I, as of now, you owe me four weeks wages, Albus, but I will make a claim against the Dumbledore vaults in Gringotts. G400 was it, see to it, immediately!" Flitwick walked out of the former headmaster's office and Severus held the door open.
"You are no longer the headmaster of this school, I respected and admired you once, I even thought myself in love with you until you put a young babe in the care of those child abusers. Thankfully, Petunia did the right thing and gave him back to his real family, the fat lump who was not his real uncle is now in prison and Hadrian Gilbert Mikaelson Salvatore is in the loving hands of his real mother and father."
"I'll get him again" Dumbledore chuckled madly "I'll make him into the perfect….!"
Dumbledore said no more as Dobby blasted the madman into the balcony wall. "I suggest you get the auror's, Headmistress Kitty-cat, Nasty Bumblebee is bound to escape if he's not restrained in magic suppressing handcuffs."
"I concur with you Dobby. Can you pop over to the ministry of magic and ask Amelia Bones, Head Auror of DMLE and two others. Not Tonks and not Alastor Moody, please?"
"What should Dobby be telling Amelia Bones?"
"Only that Dumbledore has cracked up in his mind and that he tried to curse his staff members."
Hadrian's POV
Hadrian and Hermione walked back to the mansion with Damon, Marcel and Rebekah, they had picked up some leftover paella, met up with Elena, Hadrian's mother, and made their way back to the french quarter mansion. Hadrian saw Mcgonagall and cried out "Aunt Minnie, Dobby, what are you doing here?" Mcgonagall turned and Dobby threw himself at Hadrian as Minerva got down on her knees with tears in her eyes. "Master Hadrian, Dobby brought Headmistress Kitty-Kat here to ask for forgiveness. She slapped the Nasty Buzzing Bee Headmaster and Dobby bound him to the Headmaster's office."
"You honestly had no idea that Dumbledore put my mother in a magical coma and that my dad decided to dry himself out and wait for her to wake up. Bonnie Bennett St John, has done more for me than the whole wizarding world! She woke my mother up with a simple unlinking spell. All you had to do was stop seeing me as the boy who lived"
Minerva sobbed "You have every right to be furious with me Hadrian Salvatore, I was so loyal until that murderer told me everything. I had no clue who you truly were, and that the prophecy was an utter load of hogwash"
"Yes, we know, Lily Potter's child died in her womb and my son was picked as the ultimate pawn to replace her dead son. Dumbledore did his worst then set the Potters up to die then he cut that disgusting rune into our son's forehead. Inviting the dark lord's Horcrux to lodge itself in the scar. Little did he know that our boy could heal himself and being quarter of a Warlock, he expels the soul piece himself. All you had to frigging well do was dig into Dumb-ass-dore's story and you would have seen the truth!" Elena's eyes flashed gold and the veins under her eyes pulsed black under her skin.
"Mom, stop please, Aunt Minnie looks like she's about to implode"
"Elena…. babe?" Damon said quietly "Maybe, Minerva is really just naive, and she's obviously sorry for her previous lack of action."
"Maybe, but while I work through my issues, you…..will keep your distance from me, and mine"
"Mum, please stop embarrassing me" Hadrian cringed as he blushed. "I would like to catch up with Aunt Minnie and find out how she and Dobby caught out the manipulative old bast…" Damon's hand suddenly covered his son's mouth and Hadrian continued mumbling "Don't you dare swear in front of the ladies!" He pointedly looked at Hermione who blushed.
Elena looked at Damon then at their son then Minerva who looked more than a little embarrassed. "Oh….to hell with it" She turned to Minerva "I'm Hadrian's mother, sorry about earlier, my emotions get away from me sometimes. I've spent quite a while in therapy to deal with my issues."
"I know that you don't know me well. But I tried to look out for Hadrian whilst he was at Hogwarts. I didn't do a good enough job of it, but I am no longer blind to my own faults"
Hadrian laid his hand on Minerva's hand as Dobby let himself be put on his little feet. "It's okay, Aunt Minnie, I forgive you, Klaus told me that you sent my school file to him, keeping him informed as to what I needed" Klaus suddenly opened the mansion's door
"Minerva!" Klaus looked shocked then he winked "Hello, love, you don't look a day over eighty, you know" he kissed her on the cheek.
Hadrian gagged and Klaus glared at his grandson. "Kidding, jeez!" he huffed.
"Do you fancy a chat in the lounge my dear?"
"A shot of your best scotch, if you have it, Niklaus?"
Klaus grinned as he held out his arm for Minerva to take "Oh, it's my pleasure, Minnie"
Elena and Damon shrugged their shoulders as the rest of the bemused crowd followed them in.
