Chapter 13: Time to Kill!

Thursday, Dec. 6

There were forty aurors stationed around the ministry the morning of the scheduled Honour Duels. Minister Bagnold wasn't going to have any trouble spilling over outside that would put her ministry in a bad light. Chief Warlock Albus Dumbledore had arrived early in hopes of talking both sides out of this fight, using his tired old lines of violence never solves anything, everyone deserves a second chance, or why can't we all just get along. Of course, none of it had an ice cube's chance in hell of stopping what was going to happen in a short while.

All the deatheaters arrived together around half eleven and were boasting of what they were going to do, how they were going to do it and the fun they will have with all the Peverell, Potter and Black fortune's the innuendo of what fun they would have with the family members went unsaid but threatened. The families of the eleven were escorted into the viewing chambers after being checked for wands. All got deathly quiet as Lord and Lady Black, Andromeda and Ted Tonks which drew stares were seated. Then Lord and Lady Potter, and Lily Potter with Remus Lupin but not James were seated beside them on the same row. Lord Mulciber looks up and yells, what neither of you want to be down here when we slaughter your so-called champion? He may get one or two of us but we will eventually kill him and then you! It was at this point that Lord Peverell made his appearance. Harry was dressed in his black Dragonhide armor, his thick leather duster with Caladbolg disillusioned on his back.

Harry starts to speak but it seemed time stopped when he heard a sweet voice that he hadn't heard in over a week. In front of him stands Lora and she says "Harry today starts the fight to return that which was lost, right what was wrong and kill those that need killing!" Harry smiles and asks" Lora you sure have been quiet lately", and she says, "well I have a lot of things to do and you seemed to be about your business. Now send these assholes to hell where they should have already been. I will be talking to you soon, remember do not hold back, do not show mercy, do want needs doing, good luck Harry, but luck has no part here!"

Lord Nott snarls at Harry and says "Lord Peverell, your about to be the shortest named Lord in history, I'm gonna enjoy dolling my wife and mistress up with your gold!" No one saw the look of disgust on his wife's face in the viewing area! Chief Warlock Dumbledore interrupts and says "quiet, there is no need for vulgarity in front of those present to see this barbaric fight. While I can't stop it, I will at least have decorum here. Aurors step in between the parties until it is time!" It was now that another person arrived on Lord Peverells end of the pit and laughs at Lord Nott, everyone recognizes it is Sirius Black! Sirius asks out loud" did he get his sire's name for Nott being up to the task, Nott being stiff enough under pressure or just Nott good enough period? Inquiring minds want to know!" Lord Nott screams "after they get thru with Peverell he would be next", not knowing this was the exact comment Dorea had expected and she had advised Sirius to strike with the all-in challenge while they were angry. Sirius looks at those on the opposite end of the pit and says "we have the pit scheduled for all day, why don't we make this quick and easy! Why don't all ten of you LORD's step in the pit at the same time since it will magically expand to give everyone room and let's say Lord Peverell, myself and one more if we can round one up will fight all of you at once? Of course, if ten PureBloods are afraid of a Half-Blood, a Blood-Traitor and a walkon we could go one on one till Lord Peverell has slaughtered each of you! This was more than Evan Rosier could stand and he yelled try to find one more fool to get in here with you and we will kill all three of you, but we are eleven not ten! It was at that time that James Potter stepped out from under his invisibility cloak and smiled at them with a feral smile of a Lion that has just caught the gazelle! I will be glad to help kill the men that tried to kill my parents and my aunt and Uncle!

Lord Peverell then speaks, I know there are ten Lord's in the pit but there is also one witch. I prefer not to kill females so I offer her this one chance to walk out and hope her brother wins because after I kill him, I will deal with her as the Lord of her House! Alecto Carrow screams at Harry and says I will be in the pit with my brother and my friends, we will destroy you, and then the Black and Potter families! This ends today, we should have killed you earlier! Harry then says to James and Sirius be prepared for them to jump the count, shield only, let your magic flow out of you and accept it's gifts. I will do the rest, do not move forward after the casting has started! Minister Bagnold puts her wand to her throat and casts a sonorus charm so all could hear her, the duel will start in five minutes, at straight up noon, Head of the DMLE Barty Crouch, Sr will give the signal to begin, this is the last opportunity for anyone who wishes to leave to do so. She waits two minutes and says bring up the shields, which the aurors do and combatants prepare to fight! Lord Peverell doesn't slip his wand into his right hand, instead he reaches across his left shoulder and draws the largest sword any of those present had ever seen a man wield! The DeathEaters start to laugh and start yelling you will never get close enough to use that cumbersome thing! Where did you learn magic, in the backwoods chopping firewood? At thirty seconds before noon Crouch started counting down and he got to 15, 14, 13..10, Harry started chanting and Imihaku Mana Pono(this is an old Maori spell, that strips the magic from those it is cast on, once cast it doesn't stop until all magic is from the victim and transferred permanently to the caster),over and over while James and Sirius whispered the Protego maximus superior and brought up their shield, just as Harry expected the Deatheaters jumped the count at 2 seconds and started firing are sorts of curses from unforgivables which are allowed in a duel to the death, to bone breakers, bone crushers, organ liquifiers, to blood boilers and blood thickeners. Nothing got threw the shields and Lord Peverell kept chanting, the deatheaters had started to notice that their spells were getting weaker and weaker. Many knew their own strength and knew that something wasn't right, they weren't near their core limit yet but some wasn't right. Lily Potter was biting her knuckles as she watched the deatheater spells being stopped by the shield in front of her husband, his best friend and the strange yet familiar man called Lord Peverell! It was then that some of the members of the audience could see that the many were not wearing down the few, in fact they weren't even making them cast spells yet that they could see! It was then the first to fall to his knees was Igor Scabior, then Thorfinn Rowle followed by Alecto Carrow who had lasted longer than two of the Lords! In short order the rest went to their knees, Lord's Crabbe, Goyle, Mulciber, Nott, Amycus Carrow, Rosier and lastly Lords Rookwood and Dolohov! They were on their knees without a spell hitting any of them. The spectator gallery and the Table where the Chief Warlock sat with Minister Bagnold and DMLE head Barty Crouch were stunned. The wives of some of these Lords were watching quietly in hopes that their husbands would be ended today, while a few were scared for what was to come!

Everyone outside of the pit thought that the fight was over but the Lord Peverell drops the silencer spells and speaks loudly, this is a duel to the death, get off your knees and fight like the so called superior beings you consider yourselves! Either get up and fight or I will kill you where you stand, there will be as much mercy here today as you have shown the muggle born you have murdered, the mercy you have shown those women and children of PureBloods whom you consider blood traitors, or the mercy you would have shown Lord's and Lady's Potter and Black! Lord Peverell then casts his first spell as he rips off the left sleeves of each of their robes to show the mark of the Dark Lord! As the audience gasps and the head table sucks their breath, Harry starts walking towards Lord Nott who hasn't moved since he went to his knees, Harry puts Caladbolg back in his shoulder sheath and says to the crowd these men do not warrant the sullying of my blade with their coward's blood! Harry binds Nott with ropes and lifts him off his feet, he whispers in his ear, this is for trying to kill my family, this is for killing my wife, none of you will walk away from here today and I will end your lines! Harry reaches to his hip with his right hand and pulls a goblin made knife similar to a Kabar and rams it under Notts chin and thru his brain! Harry drops the former Lord Nott to the ground and starts toward Lord Carrow, Sirius and James yell at him that they are beaten, but Harry tells them to stay put, in here there is no mercy, there is no sympathy only death and those who can dispense it. These men and one woman made their choice and today they pay for their choice not only with their lives but with their families, vaults, and properties! Harry reaches Amycus Carrow and he whispers to him this is for the first years you tortured in the future as Harry slits his throat and drops him on the spot! The viewing chamber is getting loud with the screams of family members and with the wretching of the people throwing up everywhere. Lord Peverell never hesitates as he slits the throat of every one of the deatheaters(telling each why they are being slaughtered), until there is no one left but Antonin Dolohov and Harry! Harry steps up to where Dolohov is on his knees and grabs him by his robes and drags him to his feet, he whispers to Dolohov and says your death won't be as fast nor as painless, today I repay you for what you would have done 25 years into the

future to my Hermione, from where I came from! Dolohov tries to yell but Harry has silenced him and Harry throws him back five feet and conjures his flame-whip. Dolohov tries to catch his balance but Harry wraps the whip around Dolohov's right arm and slices it off cauterizing the wound as he does so! Harry then does the same to the left arm, then he hits Dolohov with the flaming whip repeatedly across his back and sides until finally Harry whips it around Dolohov's neck and removes his head! It is over, all eleven of the deatheaters are dead, ten head of houses dead, ten seats on the wizengamot vacant in a matter of minutes.

Harry turns and calls for James and Sirius to come beside him, then he looks at the officials table and says loudly, I administered the justice that you should have, I have avenged many innocents who never would have died if you had done your job, today, this moment by Right of Conquest, and by right of our Ancient Laws and Magic, I claim lordship of House Knott, of Houses Mulciber, Carrow, Dolohov, Scabior, Rookwood, Rowle, Goyle, Crabbe, and Rosier! All of a sudden, a loud thrum was heard and Lord Peverell was glowing as Magic judged him and his claim of Lordships, then on each of his fingers the Lords Ring of each house appeared on his hands! As Harry drops his hands to his side and he hugs both James and Sirius, thank you for having my back Sirius just snorts and says yea you really needed us! I just can't wrap my head around killing men and women who are beaten, and Harry says what would they have done to your aunt and Uncle, to Lord and Lady Potter, this war will have no place for mercy, either you give no quarter or you stay behind the wards at Black Manor or Potter Castle. I don't expect any quarter and I sure as hell won't be giving any, I will kill every deatheater and Voldemort supporter I can! Harry didn't realize it at the time but the shield and silencing charms had come down and everyone in the chamber heard every word he had said! DMLE Head crouch yelled for the aurors to arrest Lord Peverell for murder since he killed them after he had disarmed them. Lord Black stands and speaks Director Crouch you have no authority in this matter, this was a duel to the death and the deceased had every opportunity to kill my nephews, all three of them, the crowd started murmuring all three? Lord Peverell gave them a fair fight, he fought under the rules of the duel and our own laws, he will not be punished for winning and besides I think you, the Minister and the Chief Warlock better look to your own lives as now Lord Peverell has 13 votes at his disposal in the Wizengamot, his own 3 plus the ten he just got through the new Lordships! Minister Bagnold about choked as she told Crouch to be quiet and that no one would be arrested as no laws were broken and surely, they could all work together to make the wizarding world a better place, strangely Albus Dumbledore was quiet! Lord Peverell then says as he starts to walk out of the pitch, I will aid those who fight tyranny, I will aid the innocents who can't fight for themselves, but I will utterly destroy those who harm innocents and those who willingly stand by and let those things happen! Regardless of who it is and what title they carry as he looked directly at the Chief Warlock, he left the pit and headed towards his family!

A/N: Anyone who didn't get the fact that Harry let the world know he can do wandless magic at an extreme level, are now aware! This Harry will be brutal, he will also kind to those who deserve it.I don't own Harry Potter or any part of the series, it belongs to JK Rowling. In this chapter Lord Peverell will explain a little to his "family", and start to deal with some of the Lordships he has taken.
