"The trial of Sirius Black is now in session."
Hadrian and Anna sat among the crowd. Sirius had already been cleared of all charges, having had a private trial the day before. They had changed it when Anna brought it up, it would have been better to have the private without Dumbledore and a public where the man was more then likely to find out about.
"Give him the Veritaserum." Kingsley stepped up and gave him the serum.
"State your name and date of birth." Kingsley spoke loud enough for everyone to hear.
"Sirius Orion Black, November 3rd 1959."
Kingsley nodded to Amelia Bones and Minister Fudge. Before either of them could speak, Dumbledore bursted in.
"You're late Professor Dumbledore."
"I must have gotten the times wrong, please forgive me."
Hadrian held Anna closer to him as he lightly glared at Dumbledore. He wouldn't let that man get anywhere close to her.
"Is that his big brother?"
"Yes Lily flower, never go somewhere alone with him. Always make sure one of your pets is with you at all times." He felt her nod. "I will probably have to hand you to Lady Malfoy if he decides to stop this trial, meaning I will have to use my Lord status." He felt her nod again.
"Sit down Professor Dumbledor, we are in the middle of a trial."
Dumbledor looked at the potioned Sirius Black. "I don't see why we need a trial for a murderer."
"Now listen here-" Before Cornilius could continue ranting to Albus, Hadrian stood up, which caught everyone's attention, especially since him merely standing up quieted Fudge.
"Albus to many fucking middle names Dumbledore. You will sit down and listen to the trial like everyone else." He wasn't going towards Fudge or Albus. He was going towards Lady Malfoy, Lily in his arms. "Excuse me Lady Malfoy. Would you mind watching my Lily Flower while I deal with this?"
"Of course Lord Evans." She smiled as she took Anna out of his arms.
"You have my gratitude as always Madam."
"Oh none of that." She motioned him on to the front.
He nodded and moved down to the front. "You are not special Dumbledore, not within these walls and during this trial."
"I'll have you know I am-"
Hadrian waved him off. "Chief Warlock, Headmaster at Hogwarts, defeater of the dark lord Grindrelwald. Anything else I'm missing?"
"The one training the savior."
Hadrian made a disgusted face. "Ah yes, your pig for slaughter. No one is dumb Dumbledore. You believe he shall not be named is back."
"He is!"
"Says who?"
"Harry Potter."
"You act like that name means anything to me. No, you're trying to make everyone take the word of a truamatized boy who saw someone murder his own best friend. Don't think no one noticed you whisking the boy off as he was trying to mourn."
"Now listen here you-"
"I think not. Sit down Dumbledore." Hadrian held his head up, not afraid of this man and it was clear.
"Sit down Albus." Dumbledore hid his scowl but listened to the minister.
"I'm sorry Minister."
"None of that my boy, back to your baby sister."
Hadrian smiled his charming smile and went off to Anna, picking her up out of Narcissa's arms. "You did so good big brother!"
He chuckles. "Thank you my Lily Flower."
He went back to his seat, holding Anna close and watching the trial. He started playing with her hair to slightly calm himself down.
"Now, Sirius Black. Did you betray the Potter's on that horible Hallows Evening?"
"No." Gasps were heard in the crowd.
"Were you the secret keeper?"
"No." More gasps.
"Then who was the secret keeper?"
"Peter Pettigrew, I had requested him because I thought they would have been more protected."
"Did you go after him and kill those twelve muggles?"
"No, he cut off his own finger and exploded that street himself."
Amelia nodded to Kingsley. "The antidote."
Kingley nodded and gave it to him. Sirius's eyes gained their color again.
"I hereby state that Sirius is not guilty and all his charges are to be dropped." Amelia stood as she spoke. "He is to go and see a Mind Healer myself and Minister Fudge see fit for him to see. He is to see this mind healer before he is to properly claim his Lordship and be his Godson's caregiver."
"This trial is now over!" Cornelius hit the hammer down.
Even though he knew that he was innocent, having it stated in front of so many people, made Hadrian sag in relief. He was so glad to have his GodFather free of his binds. Free of the shadow and darkness that had lingered over him while he was on the run.
"Are you okay Hadie?" Anna looked up at him. He nodded down at her.
"Yeah, relieved to have him free now." He smiled gently. "Now, how do you feel about finally meeting him?"
Anna nodded excitedly. "I really want to meet uncle Sirius!"
Hadrian let out a pure laugh as he stood. "Then let's go meet uncle Sirius."
He could feel Dumbledore's cold glare at him. He ignored the man. He wasn't his puppet anymore. He was his own person, and he was going to have his happy ending.
"Lord Evans!" Hadrian stopped and turned to who had called for him.
"Lady Malfoy." That got him a light smack to the back of the head.
"What have I told you young man?"
"To call you Aunt Cissa."
She nodded. "Now, come on, I want to see my cousin."
"Yes Ma'am." He lightly glared at Draco who was laughing at his misfortune. "Shut it."
"No, I don't think I will." He chuckled some more, which got him a little playful shove.
"Boys."
"Yes Ma'am!" They quickly followed after Narcissa.
They walked into a back room that only the trusted could enter. Which was the ones that knew who Hadrian was and what his plan was. So it was Draco, Narcissa, The Minister, Remus, Sirius, Kingsley, and Amelia.
"I would say that trial could have gone worse." was the first thing Hadrian said when he entered the room.
"You definitely took jabs at Albus." Fudge chuckled lightly.
"The old coot deserved it."
"That he did."
"Harry?" Hadrian smiled at his Godfather. "Thank you Pup, I can't thank you enough."
"I honestly thought you were going to complain over the fact that I look so different again."
"That was going to be my next statement. But you look like your grandfather, well, you have his hair."
Hadrian tilted his head. "Grandpa Fleamont?"
"No, your mother's father."
"Grandpa William?"
Sirius nodded. "It was such a shock to me because I expected more of James."
"Mom did come from a long line of Squibs…"
"So it does make a little sense why you would look like someone that was on your mother's side a little bit. Though, I have no idea who's eyes you got."
"That would be his Great Grandmother's, Dorea Black." Narcissa piped up.
"Really?" Sirius looked at his cousin a little confused.
She nodded. "Yeah, she had a mixture of blue and grey eyes."
Sirius hummed. "Good to know. So he has the facial structure of his mother, the body type of his father, the hair of his Grandfather, and the eyes of his great Grandmother. Hadrian, how the hell did you pull that off."
"Magic."
"We all should have known that was going to be his answer."
Anna giggled from his arms. "I think big brother looks very handsome."
"He is. He'll get all the ladies." Sirius grinned.
"To gay for that." Hadrian blankly stared at him.
"I know a lot of guys that are going to complain that you got hotter." Draco huffed.
"Oh really? You Slytherins complaining that you don't have the used to be cute Potter in your house?" Hadrian grinned at him.
"Oh I could tell you stories." He rolled his eyes.
"Do tell." Hadrian leaned against him.
"Later."
"Fair fair." He chuckled lightly. "Now, Lily Flower has been wanting to meet the twins, so I'm gonna go find them."
"Use a condom."
"Sirius!"
"What?"
"He's going with Anna. If he was going alone, you'd say that.""Oh right."
"Have fun you two, but not too much fun."
"Thanks uncle Moony!" Hadrian smiled at him and left the room.
"He's grown up."
"That he has Padfoot, that he has."
