Chapter 2: Summer's Sirius End
Monday, August 5th, 1991
Bones Manor
Sunday went by without any issues. Harry refused to let anyone fix his glasses so they went to Diagon Alley and got his eyes fixed at the magical optometrist shop. Afterwards Harry saw a street merchant selling flowers and bought Susan a Lily and gave her a kiss. The next morning they got a surprise when the Daily Prophet came that morning.
BOY-WHO-LIVED OFF THE MARKET AT THE AGE OF 11. WHO IS THE GIRL THAT STOLE HIS HEART?
By Rita Skeeter
Harry Potter, The-Boy-Who-Lived, who was voted Most Eligible Bachelor this year for Witch Weekly is no longer eligible. My cameraman, Ricky Rollins, captured this photo of Mr. Potter giving none other than Susan Bones, the niece of Madam Amelia Bones Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, a Lily and kissing her.
Sources say that Mr. Potter and Miss Bones were first seen together in Diagon Alley shortly after Harry's 11th Birthday. How did the two meet and how did she get her claws into our hero so quickly? If not for her aunt I'd be screaming love potion. Perhaps because of who her aunt is she thought she'd get away with it. Maybe someone should make sure Harry Potter is ok and not being controlled by someone who doesn't deserve him.
"That stupid, ignorant, fucking cow! I'm going to shove my wand up her ass and break it off at the handle!" said Susan.
"Susan, language! And haven't I told you, no threatening sodomy." said Amelia.
"Amelia do you have your copy of the statements that Ragnok provided?" asked Harry.
"They're in the office. Why?" asked Amelia.
"Mipsy?" called Harry and she popped in. "Can you please bring me the financial statements for the three houses?" He thanked her when she popped back in with them and started looking for the section he needed.
"Look here, Amelia. Between the three houses I own 25% of The Daily Prophet." said Harry.
"What are you thinking?" asked Amelia.
"I'm thinking we go down there and give Mrs. Skeeter something to think about." said Harry.
Ministry Cells
Sirius was being held in the cells below the Wizengamot courtrooms. There was a guard outside and a guard inside. Nobody was allowed a wand inside other than the guards.
Amelia, Susan and Harry signed in and went through into the main room.
"We're here to see Prisoner Black." said Amelia.
"Cell #3. Remember not to touch the prisoner." said the guard.
When the cell was opened Amelia gasped. Sirius Black was emaciated. It was a miracle the clothes he wore were able to stay on. He was far from the man she used to love. Still loved if she were completely honest with herself.
"Sirius. It's Amelia. I brought Harry here to see you." said Amelia.
Sirius looked up and saw the boy standing behind Amelia. He looked like James, but didn't have glasses and his eyes were like Lily's. He was holding the girls hand. Sirius smiled.
"Well, Harry it looks like you beat me and your dad in getting your girl. Well come sit down. I'm sure if I take a step towards you that Auror will put me down like the dog I am. Right, Amelia?" asked Sirius.
"That's right Sirius." said Amelia.
"Well, Harry. Sit down and tell me about your childhood and I'll tell you all about your mom and dad." said Sirius.
After an hour Amelia, Harry and Susan had to leave. Amelia told the guard to double the amount of food Sirius was getting and to get a Healer down here with some nutrient potions.

Ministry of Magic Courtroom Ten
There was a full turn out at the trial of Sirius Black. Local media and some International publications filled the press seats. Only standing room was left in the visitor's section of the arena sized courtroom and none of the Wizengamot members had opted out of this trial. Dumbledore was in his seat as Chief Warlock.
This was also a regular Wizengamot meeting so before the trial could begin they had to go over some old business and new one of which was recognizing Harry and Susan as Lord and Lady Potter and naming Amelia as Regent for their votes on the Wizengamot.
Dumbledore banged his gavel. "This meeting of the Wizengamot on Monday August 12th of the year 1991 is now in session. Mister Erickson will you please let the court know if there is any old business from the last meeting?"
There was no old business so Dumbledore called for new business and only Amelia raised her hand.
"Madam Bones, you have the floor." said Dumbledore.
"Lords and Ladies of the Wizengamot it is my duty to bring forth Lord Harry James Potter and his wife Lady Susan Amelia Potter. Lord Potter is emancipated and of age certified by both The Ministry of Magic and Gringott's Wizarding Bank. He is taking up the Lordships of Potter, Black and Bones. All claims have been certified…" said Amelia as she was interrupted.
"I object!" said Lucius Malfoy.
"Lord Malfoy, you have the floor. State your objection." said Dumbledore.
"My son Draco is the next in line for the Black family as upon his death Lord Arcturus Black had no living heir who was not voided by a stay in Azkaban. I demand that Madam Bones provide irreconcilable proof that Lord Potter has taken up the mantle of Lord Black as well." said Lucius.
"Seconded." said a puffed up looking Witch in pink in the row behind Minister Fudge.
"I would think the fact that Lord Potter is wearing the ring that can only be worn by the Head of House Black would be proof enough, but here is a signed statement from Lord Arcturus dated and signed in his own blood a week before his death that Harry James Potter would be the next Head of the Ancient and Noble House of Black." said Amelia.
"With this document and as Madam Bones has stated Lord Potter wearing the ring of the Head of House Black your objection is overruled. You may continue Madam Bones." said Dumbledore.
"Lords and Ladies, as I was saying all claims have been certified as accurate and the Houses of…"
"Hem hem."
"…Potter, Bones and Black have been…"
"Hem hem."
"I apologize, Madam Bones. Do you require a potion for your throat, Madam Umbridge?" said Dumbledore.
"I have a question that I think everyone wants to know the answer to." said Umbridge.
"Your question can wait until after Madam Bones…" started Dumbledore.
"Are we going to sit here while we let this tart potion her way into the wealth of House Potter and Black?" asked Umbridge pointing at Susan.
"Madam Umbridge, you are out of order!" said Dumbledore.
"I'll answer her accusation." said Harry.
"Madam Umbitch, I know the idea of potioning someone for love might be second nature to you, but the next time you want to throw unfounded accusations based on the news of a reporter who only got some of the facts right you'd better check with the records of this ministry first. My emancipation activated a Marriage Contract that was signed between mine and Lady Potter's parents when we were babies so in essence it was actually me who ensnared her into this marriage and not the other way around. Now since Madam Bones keeps getting interrupted I'll finish now. House Potter, Bones and Black have all been combined into House Potter and all votes will be voted by House Potter with Madam Bones as my regent. That is all now may we please get down to the business of Sirius Black's trial? I think he's waited enough." said Harry.
The trial of Sirius Black was easy compared to what they just went through. Amelia provided the will of James and Lily Potter and Harry swore his oath that the will was the official will as provided by Director Ragnok Head of Gringott's Wizarding Bank. Even with not being able to produce Peter Pettigrew at this time Sirius was found innocent of the charges and the Order of Merlin that had been posthumously given to him had been taken away. His death certificate was removed from his records and he was now listed as wanted by the DMLE.
Sirius was allowed to leave with Amelia, Susan and Harry on the condition that he has access to a Healer for the next week to keep up his health both mental and physical. After some congratulations they left the Ministry. Minister Fudge said there would be no press conference so they knew Rita Skeeter would be back at the offices of The Daily Prophet.
The Daily Prophet
Amelia had scheduled an appointment with the editor, Barnabus Cuffe and they were lead into his office by his secretary.
"Ah, Madam Bones, Lord and Lady Potter and… Sirius Black! Erm… How may I help you today?" said Barnabus.
"Mr. Cuffe, We'd like to have a word with Mrs. Skeeter about her recent article about Lord and Lady Potter and we have an offer for her and you." said Amelia.
"Beverly, tell Rita to come to my office immediately." said Barnabus. "Madam Bones I'm sure you're aware that there is nothing that can legally be done about the article about Lord and Lady Potter. The most I can offer is an apology from me and Rita about not referring to you by your titles as we did not know you had come into them or that you and the then Miss Bones were married."
"Barnaby, why am I being interrupted?" asked Rita who then noticed who is in the room. "Madam Bones, nothing in that article was against the law so what are you doing here?"
"Mrs. Skeeter, since you were at Sirius' trial you are aware that I am Lord Potter and my wife is Lady Potter. We have become aware that regardless of how repulsive all of your stories are you do have quite the following and we'd like to make you our official reporter and anything about me and my family will be exclusive to The Daily Prophet." said Harry.
"And what makes you think I'd agree to writing propaganda fluff for you, Lord Potter?" asked Rita.
"Your articles attract the most attention and that is what I need for the future. Someone to give me exposure to the Wizarding world as more than just The-Boy-Who-Lived. I'm not asking you for fluff pieces, I'm asking you for the truth. If it's negative I won't stop you from writing it, but I will ask for a warning so I can defend myself from any fallout should it be really bad." said Harry.
"So the article about the Wizengamot meeting and Sirius' trial where I was going to reference you calling Senior Undersecretary Umbridge, Umbitch is ok?" asked Rita.
"Actually in her case I would prefer it." said Harry.
"Lord Potter, I think this is the start of a beautiful partnership." said Rita.
The Leaky Cauldron
After working out the details with Rita and Barnabus, the expanded family went to The Leaky Cauldron for lunch.
"So, Harry, I wasn't all myself when you came to see me on Monday so can you please tell me why you ended up getting emancipated on your 11th birthday?" asked Sirius.
"I was taken by Hagrid to get my school supplies and when we stopped at Gringott's Hagrid had my key and that among other things sent up some red flags so I was taken before Ragnok. He informed me of the contract between my parents and the Dursley's and how they were paid to take care of me. The Dursley's broke that contract by spending the money that was for me on themselves and their son Dudley and by abusing me physically, verbally and mentally." said Harry.
"And this emancipation is what caused you to be married so early to this beautiful little lady?" asked Sirius.
"Yes, but we would've most likely been married before the age of 17 because of the soul bond." said Harry.
"I remember that day." said Sirius.
"How, you were still in Azkaban when we bonded at The Leaky Cauldron?" asked Harry.
"It was the most amazing thing. Harry was in the playpen playing with his toys when Edgar and Cassandra came to see James and Lily. They placed Susan in with Harry and he stopped playing with his toys and was staring at Susan like she was the most amazing thing in the world. Now granted I might've been assigning that description on how I look at a woman when I first meet her, but this is how I remember it. I don't remember who made the first move but there was a loud laugh and the two of them were holding hands and a golden dome erupted from where their hands met. Everyone tried to get through the dome and get to you and Susan, but nobody could. After an hour the dome disappeared and at that moment Susan grabbed for Harry and gave him a very slobbery open mouthed kiss. Again that could've just been my perception of it, but there was a bright golden flash when that happened. What was funny was when it was time to go. Cassandra picked up Susan and headed for the door and Susan disappeared out of her arms and right next to Harry. She tried again and Susan disappeared once again. They had to wait for the two of you to tire out and fall asleep before they were finally able to take you home." said Sirius.
"So that explains why they signed the marriage contract." said Harry.
"It also possibly explains why the bond is completed." said Amelia.
"The bond is completed? But that would mean…" started Sirius.
"Don't go there Sirius. Susan and Harry haven't gone that far." said Amelia.
"The way you said that implies that they've gone somewhere. What have the two of you done? Ow! Amy don't do that!" yelped Sirius.
Harry and Susan didn't see him rubbing his crotch where she had kicked him, but they looked at each other and mouthed "Amy".
"That's what you get you dirty old dog." said Amelia.
"If Harry and Susan haven't had sex then how do you mean that the bond is complete?" asked Sirius.
"The bond requires an intimate act to complete it. From what you said in your story they completed the bond when they were babies." said Amelia.
"Auntie, you can't be saying that when I kissed Harry as a baby that that was considered intimate." said Susan.
"The two of you were 6 months old, but from the moment you touched you were each other's world and as innocent as you were then and to us adults we would say that you wouldn't have known what you were doing, but the magic of the bond says different. In the most basic sense you wanted your soul mate right then and there and you got him. I know you know that intimacy can be in just a touch or a kiss. It doesn't have to be sex. I think the bond in its purest sense is pure love and it proved that in having a complete bond with two babies who couldn't possibly complete the bond in the way that we think it has to be. I also think that is why the two of you were able to survive being apart during your childhoods before the bond reactivated at your touch in The Leaky Cauldron." said Amelia.
"Then why do we still need to touch now?" asked Harry.
"This is only a guess, but I think because you have been in a sense bonded this whole time the bond thinks you are ready." said Amelia.
"Well I need to get my wand and do some shopping so if we're going to get to Bones Manor at a decent time we'll have to finish this conversation and others at another time." said Sirius
Bones Manor
After Harry and Susan headed to bed Amelia got a bottle of Firewhiskey and sat down on the couch. Sirius joined her.
"How have you been, Amy?" asked Sirius
"Don't call me Amy and don't think that Harry and Susan didn't catch on to you saying it earlier." said Amelia.
"Come on, Amelia. Did you miss me at all?" asked Sirius.
"Of course I missed you" How could you ask that? You were my partner! In the Auror Corps and in my bed, and because you didn't come to me I had to believe that you had betrayed your best friends and that secretly you were working for Voldemort!" yelled Amelia
"Amelia…" started Sirius
"No! You shut your muzzle till I'm done! Now I find out that instead of betraying your friends and me you chose to go after and kill the man who really did betray them! I remember Pettigrew he was the worst Wizard there was, but you want to know something? He was still a Wizard! He could've killed you and you don't even care what that would've done to me. You didn't think about anything, but yourself you selfish, stupid mutt!" yelled Amelia.
"Enough! He killed James and Lily! He as good as pointed the wand at them himself! What would you have done? Come on! You've got all the answers, Amy! What…" started Sirius
At that point Sirius broke down and curled up into Amelia's chest and cried. He cried like he'd never been allowed to in Azkaban. After several minutes he looked up at Amelia.
"I loved you, Amy, but James was my brother and Lily became my adopted sister. I had to go after Peter and as mad as you are now if I hadn't I wouldn't have been the man you loved. I know it's been ten years and I have some things to work through, with their deaths and my stay in Azkaban, but also with Harry. The thought of you and him kept me going in Azkaban and I finally get out and find that he doesn't need me. Eleven years old and already Lord Potter and married. I know I have no right to ask you this after what I put you through, but can I please stay here to spend time with Harry. He might not need me, but I owe it to him to be there for whatever he needs." said Sirius
Amelia got up and brought Sirius up with her and pulled him into a deep, needful kiss.
"Harry does need you, but he's not the only one who needs you." said Amelia.

Bones Manor
While Amelia and Sirius were downstairs talking, Harry and Susan were having some make out time. The last few days their choice of sleeping attire had changed to Harry in his boxers and Susan in her bra and panties. Susan knew Harry was trying to be good and his hands never moved past where she allowed them, but she wanted more tonight.
"Harry, take it off." said Susan.
"What?" asked Harry.
"Take my bra off." said Susan.
Harry got the bra unhooked and swallowed hard at seeing Susan's breasts for the first time.
"Touch me, Harry." said Susan.
Harry circled his finger around her nipple causing Susan to moan and she captured his lips and started kissing him deeply as he massaged and played with her nipples and breasts. Susan was feeling so good and she really wanted to go further, but knew that they should stop so she had Harry lay on his back and she laid half on him with her breasts up against him.
Thursday, August 8th, 1991
Harry and Susan were sleeping soundly when suddenly the door to their room burst open and a giant black dog, jumped up into the bed with them. The both were awake instantly and jumped out of the bed.
"What the hell!?" they both yelled.
"How did a dog get in here?" asked Harry.
"I don't know. Mipsy!" said Susan.
"Yes, Miss Susan. What can Mipsy be doing?" she asked.
"Can you please get this mutt out of here and ask Auntie if there is something wrong with the wards?" asked Susan.
"Miss Susan's aunt was the one who sent the mutt to get the two of you for breakfast." said Mipsy.
Harry leaned forward and got closer to the dog.
"Sirius?" asked Harry and in answer was licked in the face before the dog transformed back into Sirius who started laughing.
"I don't have a top on!" yelled Susan grabbing a shirt out of the dresser.
"I'm sorry, Susan. Does Amelia know that's how the two of you sleep?" asked Sirius.
"No. Are you going to tell her?" asked Harry looking down.
"No, pup. I won't tell her, but we need to have a talk later." said Sirius.
"Amelia already gave us the talk." said Susan.
"I mean just a talk with Harry. It's a guy kind of talk." said Sirius. "Amelia and I need to talk to you two before we head into the Ministry."
"Why are you going with her?" asked Harry.
"I'm filling out the paperwork to get my job back as an Auror. I'll be back in an hour and I'll start work Monday. Well get ready and we'll see you downstairs." said Sirius.
After Sirius left Harry went over to Susan.
"We need to come up with some way to get him back. I don't like that he saw you without your bra." said Harry.
"How? We don't know any spells or anything." said Susan.
"We have our school books. Let's start studying them and maybe we'll come up with something." said Harry.
Susan nodded and they got dressed to go downstairs. When they got down to breakfast and Amelia and Sirius were kissing.
"Auntie?" asked Susan.
"Uhm, well Susan, Harry. Sirius and I wanted to tell you that we've decided to start our relationship up again." said Amelia.
"We were partners before during the war and fell in love, but you know with Azkaban and all…" said Sirius.
"Does he make you happy?" asked Susan.
"Yes. There are some things that need to be worked through because of his stay in Azkaban, but we know this is what we want." said Amelia.
"Ok. Just as long as he's good to you, Auntie." said Susan.
"What are you two going to do today?" asked Amelia.
"We're going to start studying our school books. We wanted to get a head start on some of the theory and see if we can cast some of the spells." said Harry.
"Ok well be careful. If you have any trouble I'll help when I get back." said Sirius.
"Thank you, Sirius." said Harry and Susan.
After Amelia and Sirius flooed to the Ministry, Harry and Susan got their books and started studying in the sitting room. They decided to read the theory chapter on the Transfiguration, Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts books. Harry was getting annoyed.
"Susan all these books say the same thing. It's like the wand movement and the incantation make no difference. The D.A.D.A. and Transfiguration books add a power component to it, but otherwise it's just pointing your wand, focusing on what you want the result to be and having the belief that what you want to happen will happen." said Harry.
"Ok, let's test this I'm going to levitate the coffee table using the incantation and the correct wand movement and you try it without any of that and we'll see what happens." said Susan.
Harry and Susan got up and went to the other side of the table.
"Wingardium, Leviosa." said Susan and the table raised up just like the book said it would.
Susan placed the coffee table back down and Harry pointed his wand at it while focusing on what he wanted to happen and it raised just the same as it did with Susan.
"See." said Harry.
"Then I wonder why the book even goes into the movements and the incantations?" asked Susan.
"I guess we'll have to ask one of the Professors when we get to Hogwarts." said Harry. "The book also says that you can't levitate more than one item unless they're stacked on top of each other, but if you go by what the theory says that's wrong. Let's try to see if we can get everything going around the room."
Harry and Susan both concentrated on what they wanted to happen and everything in the sitting room raised up into the air. They started making the items spin around the room and having air battles between the couch and coffee table. Sirius flooed into this and didn't know what to make of it before…
"Sirius, look out!" yelled Harry before the coffee table made contact with Sirius' head knocking him out.
Harry and Susan got everything back in place then went and checked on him.
"Do you think this makes us even from this morning, Susan?" asked Harry.
"Not even, but it's a start and I have an idea for a surprise for Auntie." said Susan.
Amelia had a long day at work and all she wanted to do was have dinner and lock herself in the room with Sirius and relax. She came through the floo and saw that there'd be no relaxing.
Sirius was suspended in the air wearing nothing but a diaper and holding a golden bow with an arrow.
"How did they do this?" asked Amelia as she got him down.
"I don't know. I was kind of knocked out when they did it." said Sirius.
Amelia got Sirius down and went and found Harry and Susan to get an explanation. They explained what happened and that Sirius getting knocked out was an accident, but that the rest was payback for Sirius jumping up on them and waking them up as the dog. They weren't about to tell her how they were dressed when it happened though. Amelia told them that from now on they could use her training room to practice so that nothing gets too damaged.
Friday, August 9th, 1991
The next morning Harry and Susan woke up and after their morning routines, headed into the dining room for Breakfast. Everyone said their good mornings and Harry and Susan sat down in their chairs. Boom! There was a cloud of smoke after the loud noise and when the cloud of smoke dissipated there was nothing wrong with them.
"I feel sorry for the Marauder's if this is the best you could do." said Harry.
They all started eating their breakfast and Sirius told them that since he didn't have to start till Monday they were going to talk about what happened yesterday.
"Well I've got to head to work. Oh and Dumbledore sent word that we'll meet with him tomorrow." said Amelia. "You three kids have a good day."
Harry and Susan went to get up, but couldn't no matter how hard they tried. Sirius was laughing hard on his way to the sitting room along with Amelia.
"I'm sorry, but the two of you shouldn't have started this with him." said Amelia.
"Sirius! How long will this last?" they both yelled.
Sirius came back in after kissing Amelia goodbye.
"It'll last until our talk is over. Now how long have you been sleeping in bed the way I found you the other day?" asked Sirius.
"That was the first night." said Harry.
"Who's idea was it?" asked Sirius.
"It was mine." said Susan blushing.
"Susan I need a few minutes with Harry so you can get up for a little bit. If you don't come back on your own in ten minutes you won't like how you end up back down here." said Sirius.
Susan got up and went into the sitting room.
"Now, Harry, I know that you have this bond and are married, and I would be the last person to tell you to not do what you are doing, but do you want to do what you and Susan have done so far?" asked Sirius.
"I do, Sirius. I want to do more and I know Susan wants to as well, but I'm afraid to do something that'll make her upset." said Harry.
"Why do you want to do more? Don't you think you're going too fast. I mean you're eleven." said Sirius.
"It feels good, Sirius, more than that it feels right. Every part of my being tells me that Sirius." said Harry.
Sirius decided then that he and Amelia needed to go and talk to Croaker again. This was different than any bond he'd ever heard of.
"Well just be careful, pup. And as far as making Susan upset it's just as possible to make her upset by not going for it. Be confident and if she doesn't like what you do she'll tell you." said Sirius.
At that moment Susan came back in and sat down.
"Well I'm going to go take a look at this television contraption and see what the big deal is about Star Wars." said Sirius.
Sirius started to walk out, but Susan stopped him.
"What would've happened if I didn't come back in ten minutes?" she asked.
"Nothing, but I wanted to make you think something would and when you came back I just reapplied the spell. See you at lunch." said Sirius as he left the room laughing.
After lunch Harry and Susan finally got to go upstairs for their showers and to get dressed in regular clothes. They then disappeared into the training room for some more studying.
Later that night the four of them all went upstairs to go to bed. Amelia and Sirius told Harry and Susan goodnight and headed to their bedroom.
"You know, Sirius, I'm surprised they didn't do anything to get you back." said Amelia.
Sirius kissed Amelia and said, "Maybe they just realized they can't hang with me." He shut the bedroom door and there was a loud bang and Sirius was no longer by the door. He was now naked and stuck to the wall opposite the bed.
Amelia knew that there was going to be nothing she could do and that they would just have to let the prank wear off so she got into her nightgown and got into bed. She told Sirius goodnight and just before she fell asleep she thought, 'Why do they keep vanishing his clothes?'

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
The four of them flooed to The Three Broomsticks and walked up the path to Hogwarts. Hagrid let them in the gate and they headed to Dumbledore's office.
"Ah, Sirius, it's good to see you in the castle again. On your way out later you should stop by and see Professor McGonagall and see if you can give her anymore grey hairs." said Dumbledore.
"We were responsible for several of them." said Sirius.
"How are things going with the newlyweds?" asked Dumbledore.
"Fine, sir." said Harry.
"Harry is great, Headmaster." said Susan.
"Well, Amelia, you requested this meeting. What can an old Headmaster do for you?" asked Dumbledore.
"There's been a development that's more than just Harry and Susan being in a marriage contract. They have a soul bond. Right now they have to sleep in the same bed for 8 hours and then they can make it through the day without constant physical contact. I know Hogwarts has quarters for married couples. Is that an option?" asked Amelia.
"Yes, but the married quarters are separated from the rest of the students for obvious reasons and can only be accessed by the couples in question. If Harry and Susan are going to want to spend time with their friends then we'll have to think of something else. May I have a week to think about it and I'll send you an Owl with the answer?" asked Dumbledore.
"That works. Thank you, Professor Dumbledore." said Amelia.
The Ministry of Magic
After leaving Hogwarts they went to the Ministry of Magic and down to the Department of Mysteries to see Croaker.
"Well, Amelia, if the kids weren't here I'd think you came for a threesome." said Croaker.
"Not this time, Croaker. We have some concerns about the bond." said Amelia.
"What kind of concerns?" asked Croaker.
"Go ahead and show him." said Amelia.
Harry and Susan made everything in the room levitate like what happened in the sitting room.
"Amazing. Can you do anything else?" asked Croaker.
"We can do every spell that's taught in first and second year without practicing, incantations or wand movements. We haven't tried yet, but I think we would be able to do the same with any of the advanced spells as well. It seems that whether I or Susan read the book we both have the knowledge." said Harry.
"Also we've done several of the spells without a wand." said Susan.
"And what about the bond itself, are you still able to make it through the day without constant contact?" asked Croaker.
"Yes, but we still like to hold hands most of the time and we haven't been separated since that first night." said Harry.
"I apologize for the question, but what about intimate activities?" asked Croaker.
"We've been making out a lot and I…" Susan looked at Amelia. "I let Harry touch my breasts while we make out and I sleep in bed in just my panties with him in his boxers." said Susan.
Amelia looked like she wanted to say something, but Sirius put his hand on her shoulder so she held it in.
"Does it feel like the bond is making you do these things or want to do these things?" asked Croaker.
"No, but it feels right. It doesn't feel like we're doing anything bad or wrong." said Susan and Harry nodded his agreement with what she said.
"I don't know all the answers, but I can if you allow it scan your cores and I'll have something I can tell you by the end of next week." said Croaker.
"Thank you, Croaker. We'll talk more on Monday." said Amelia.
Bones Manor
As soon as they flooed into the sitting room Amelia pointed at Harry and Susan.
"Couch, now!" yelled Amelia.
"Amy." said Sirius.
"Don't Amy me, Sirius. You knew and don't even try and tell me you didn't. You knew what they were doing and you didn't tell me. Susan didn't tell me. That's what I want to know, Susan. Why didn't you tell me how far this has gotten?" asked Amelia.
"We didn't want you to be mad that we were doing these things. If you had known would you have tried to stop us?" asked Susan.
Amelia thought for a second that she absolutely would've tried to stop them, but at the same time knew that if she did they'd want to do those things even more. What hurt the most was that Susan felt like she couldn't come to her about this.
"I don't know, Susan, but I wasn't even given a chance. You're practically my daughter and you didn't come to me." said Amelia and she went upstairs.
Wednesday, August 14th, 1991
Things at the manor were pretty down for the next few days. Sirius tried to lighten things up by doing some more pranks on Harry and Susan and they got him back in kind. There had been some good ones too. Sirius was proud of the two kids that'd be entering Hogwarts in just two weeks as the Marauder's didn't really hit their stride prank wise until around 4th year.
That morning at breakfast when Harry and Susan came down Amelia gave them both a hug.
"I'm sorry for getting upset. I want you to tell me things and not be scared that I'm going to be mad. Susan, promise me that you'll tell me when you decide to consummate the bond. I still say that you should wait at least a few more years and I don't want any details. I just want us to be able to talk about things like before. Ok?" asked Amelia.
"Ok, Auntie." said Susan.
Amelia was just about to floo to work when Croaker's head appeared in the fireplace.
"Croaker, what are you here for?" asked Amelia.
"Bring Harry and Susan here immediately." said Croaker.
Amelia told Sirius to floo Rufus and get time off after they left and join them as soon as he could. They flooed to the Ministry and took the lift to the Department of Mysteries.
"Croaker what's going on?" asked Amelia.
"The scan I took of them Saturday shows that the bond is slowly breaking down. It's not bad yet and they still have time to stabilize it, but there's something that is a lot more dangerous than that right now. Their cores are bridged together and the bond is pulling magic directly from the cores to keep itself from failing. Now their cores are in no danger of running out of magic or anything else like that, in fact the constant use of magic is making their cores bigger, but if they are separated at all it is very possible that the bridge between their cores will break and all that magical energy from the bond and their cores will release and it would kill them and level Hogwarts, the grounds and all of Hogsmeade." said Croaker.
"Are you saying they have to consummate the bond now? They are only 11 and married or not I don't think they are emotionally ready for that." said Amelia.
"Yes it would be ideal sooner rather than later, but right now they don't have to. But realize that this bond wants them to, for lack of a better word, do it and the drive they are having to make out as they call it is going to get stronger." said Croaker.
"I'll live with that and we'll have you do a check every year before they return to Hogwarts." said Amelia.
"That's fine. I'll keep researching for other options." said Croaker.
Sirius came running up as they were exiting the department.
"What'd I miss?" asked Sirius.
Sunday, August 18th, 1991
Sunday, August 18th, 1991 was the day that ended the prank war. It was a pretty boring day. Amelia had sent Dumbledore a message with the updated information that Harry and Susan would need to be in the same house and he sent back a message that if they were sorted into separate houses that one of them could still be transferred. It wasn't widely known that it was possible, but it had been done before. He also said that with them in the same house they would be able to use one of the Head Boy or Girl apartments in order to have their sleeping arrangement kept.
That night after dinner Harry and Susan were about to head down for some training when Amelia stopped them.
"Harry, Susan, do you mind if I use the training room with you this evening I need to practice for my annual reevaluation to keep being able to do field work and not just be relegated to my office?" asked Amelia.
They both said they didn't mind and actually looked forward to seeing some more of the advanced spells that the Auror's used. The two of them followed Amelia to go downstairs, but as soon as she touched the second step the stairs turned into a slide and Amelia slid down to the room and was levitated and turned back into the wall and her clothes vanished. Sirius walked up to Harry and Susan and told them that he didn't think they'd want to go down there for a while.
"This was meant for us?" asked Harry still not knowing what the end result was.
Sirius nodded.
"Why didn't you warn Auntie, especially when you saw she was going to go down first?" said Susan.
"First rule of the Marauder's. The prank must go on." said Sirius.
"The three of you had better get down here now!" yelled Amelia.
"Prepare yourselves, kids." said Sirius.
The three of them headed down the stairs, which had returned to normal. As soon as they got to the bottom Harry turned his head.
"No, Harry, look! Because even though you and Susan aren't the ones who did this you are just as much to blame! And you, Sirius! You were going to have the children down here stuck to a wall completely naked? Stop grinning, Sirius!" yelled Amelia.
"I'm sorry, Amy, but you're naked." said Sirius.
"Don't Amy me right now, Sirius!" said Amelia as she raised her wand and Sirius wondered how she got it before it disappeared to one of the shelves with her clothes.
Amelia pointed the wand at Sirius.
"How long?" asked Amelia.
"Four hours." said Sirius.
"Well for four hours you are my new practice dummy, Sirius and for all three of you this war ends now. Do I make myself clear?" asked Amelia.
All three of them gave their agreement and Amelia told Harry and Susan to find something to do for the rest of the night.

Bones Manor
So far nothing very interesting happened in the last few days. Harry and Susan had done all the studying they could. Amelia had them add potions to the mix, but because of Harry's past with cooking he picked it up really quick and was able to show Susan some shortcuts that actually made the potion better than what the book said. They were starting to get bored with the studying now and so more often than not they would end up making out in the training room more than training. Amelia threatened to seal the room when she was gone, but they said they'd find other places.
Harry and Susan had also started getting other movies and watching whenever they could. They had started watching Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, but part way through started kissing and were really going at it when Amelia flooed in from the Ministry with Sirius following right behind her. Susan's shirt was up and she had her hand rubbing him on his crotch while he sucked and kissed her neck and rubbed her breast.
"Susan, put your shirt down!" yelled Amelia. She took a couple breaths. "This is the last time I'm going to say it. Keep these activities in your room. Now Harry, I have news about the Dursley's."
"What about them?" asked Harry.
"They get home from vacation on Monday and we are coordinating with Surrey Police to arrest them and try them for child abuse and theft." said Amelia.
"Will they go to prison?" asked Harry.
"They will, but your cousin will go to Juvenile Detention for a year and then to your Aunt Marge." said Amelia.
"She's not my Aunt." said Harry.
Harry got up and started to go upstairs and Susan followed.
"Give him a bit, Amy then we'll go up and make sure he's ok." said Sirius.
Harry and Susan went up to their room and Harry laid on his stomach looking into nothing. Susan rubbed his back and told him that it was ok and that he was loved here and that he'd never have to deal with anything like that again.
"Nothing is ever going to make the past right, Susan." said Harry.
"No, but you can take your past and use it to make the future better." said Susan.
"That's what I want to do. Being an Auror like Sirius or Amelia is great, but they help the problems of the world after they happen. I want to make it to where the problems don't happen at all. It'll take time, and I have no idea how we'll do it, but it will happen. Will you help me?" asked Harry.
"Of course, Harry." said Susan.
What they didn't know was that Sirius and Amelia were outside the door and heard everything he said and they answered, "Of course, Harry."
Monday, August 26th, 1991
Amelia along with a small team of Auror's and Police were waiting for the Dursley's to arrive. They got news that they had departed the airport awhile ago and should be arriving shortly. They could've picked them up at the airport, but Harry had mentioned how much the Dursley's were "respected" in the neighborhood and Amelia thought it would be better for them to be arrested where everyone could see.
As soon as the car pulled into the driveway they were surrounded. Vernon got out of the car, but told Petunia and Dudley to stay inside.
"What is the meaning of this!? You are trespassing on private property!" yelled Vernon.
"Actually it is you who are trespassing, Mr. Dursley. A, Gringott's Financial Group, has repossessed the house due to a breach of contract between you, your wife and the late James and Lily Potter. I am also here to inform you that you are under arrest for the abuse of your nephew, Harry James Potter. Please turn around and put your hands behind your back." said the officer.
Vernon turned around and put his hands behind his back, but as soon as the officer was close enough he elbowed him in the face and started to run. He was hit by two stun guns before they brought him down and threw him in the back of the wagon.
The officer that Vernon hit went over to the passenger side door and told Petunia what was going on and handcuffed her.
"What will happen to my Dudley?" asked Petunia.
"He'll be transported to a juvenile detention facility on a list of charges we've accumulated during our investigation. He'll serve a year and then he'll be released into the custody of your husband's sister Marge." said the officer.
As the police began to leave the neighbors of Little Whinging hoped that this was the last time they'd ever see the Dursley's.
Saturday, August 31st, 1991
On the night of their last day before going to Hogwarts, Sirius and Amelia sat Harry and Susan down for a surprise.
"Harry, you know that you control the fortunes of the Potter, Black and Bones families, but Amelia and I have our own funds that were provided before the change in ownership to you. Amelia and I took that money and opened a new account under yours and Susan's names and the Goblins helped us create the James and Lily Potter Foundation. For the time being the foundation has no set mission, but it's there for whatever you choose to do to help those who are in need and to make the changes you want for a better Wizarding world. And we both want you to know that anything you need all you have to do is ask." said Sirius.
Harry with tears streaming down his face hugged Sirius and Amelia and thanked them.
Harry and Susan went to their bedroom for one last night. Harry was remembering everything that has happened over the last month and couldn't even imagine going back to what his life had been. He turned and looked at Susan and said,
"It's been a great month, Susan Potter. I love you."
"I love you too, Harry Potter." said Susan.
