I'm very sorry I do not know what happened but I'm working on it. come back in two hours than it will be fixed for sure. Again sorry.
Harry nodded his little head as he looked at Andrea. Silvia had stood and went to the side of Minerva and Harry as she placed another chair beside them. She slowly took his little hands in hers as she gazed into his little eyes. Harry was looking away but she just kept looking at him. "Harry, You do know that Andrea has to go away sometimes".
Harry wanted to pull his little hand away as he gazed over at Andrea. "Mummy don't go. Geen Ight Ummy on't go".
Before Silvia could do something Andrea was at his side and took little Harry into her arms. "Mum what happened, what did you say to him".
A/N Thank you all for the reviews it is always nice to get them, all of them. Harry Potter is not mine, this is a story from a fan. Like always chapters take a little longer to show up because Bellatrix's second chance comes firs. Still, I will not give up on this story.
C60 The first talk
Andrea held little Harry to her chest as she gazed up at her mother. "I'm sorry honey but I had to tell him you would have to leave sometimes. He has to understand that you could be away from him for an hour or so".
"Mummy on't go Mummy On't Go" Harry mumbled as he held Andrea closer around the neck.
Andrea just held him closer as her eyes were glued to her mother and her aunt. Silvia had a worried look as she asked them to come along. She brought them both to a side room that was almost empty and sat them on a couple of chairs Minerva had conjured. If she had her way she would take Harry to talk alone with him but for now this would be her best option. "Harry what do you see when Mummy goes away".
Harry sniffled a little as he gazed up at Silvia, he shook his little head and changed into his shadow form. Minerva saw it and changed into her feline form. She then jumped next to him on the lap of Andrea as she rubbed her head against his. Slowly she jumped from her lap and pulled Harry on to hers. She could see Andrea crying and had to do something. Slowly she started to sing her iris song in her Scottish way. O Danny boy started and little harry started to purr. After ten minutes he changed back and Minerva asked Silvia to say it again while she kept on humming the song.
"Mummy went away and left me. Then Flumfail came and told Daddy to go away and he wanted to stay with me. He told Daddy Mummy had an accident. Daddy was about to run out when Mummy came back. Flumfail ran and Mummy took me to bed then a lot of noise and Geen Ight Ummy on't go".
Silvia gave a deep sigh. She knew that she would have to work hard to get Harry back to being a complete boy again. She would never be able to get him all the way but that was something she knew from the moment she saw him. This, however, had been an eye-opener, one she didn't want to see at all. The moment his Mum got murdered all went literally to hell. That was the last time he was truly loved. For the next couple of years, it would all be misery. Now after all those years Her daughter Andrea came by and she showed him love again. The fear he had was one of abandonment and talking would not help him. That was a thing of trust and only time could heal it. For all the other problems there was a simple solution, talk and show him the other way. Well, the solution was simple but again that would take time and she wasn't talking about days or weeks. No, it would take months and years.
Andrea asked. "Mum, what do you think".
"Everything can be fixed with time. This, however, will take a little longer. For now, you have to be with him all the time. If you leave him you have to tell him. And I'm not saying you have to leave" and she saw the eyes of Harry go wide. "No, the thing you have to do is tell him on the minute. So if you have to step out you tell him where you go and how long you are going. Only if you can't take him with you. If you can you take him with you. Now, and I hate to say this we have to teach him how you can be safe on your own. Start with five minutes at a time".
It was at that moment Andromeda came walking in. "I know how we can find this Inky".
Harry looked up at her and smiled a little. "Inky okay, I feel Inky here" and he pointed his little finger at his heart.
Andromeda smiled back and called for Dobby. Dobby popped next to her and just looked up. "Dobby do you feel Inky".
Dobby frowned a little and closed his tennis ball eyes. "Dobby can feel Winky but He can't feel where she is. Some ward is keeping Dobby away from Winky".
None have seen the others walking into the room. But it was Amelia who spoke up. "Winky is the house-elf of Bartimius".
Andromeda frowned a little, "If that is so, then we could have a bigger problem. For him taking A house-elf that doesn't belong to him, now that is a very big crime. Not only did he go against the law but he did it together with Lucius. He was the head of the DMLE".
Amelia turned to Andromeda. "I know it is bad but I can't go to him arresting him on that charge. He was the highest Auror at that time. He and Madeye took down a lot of Death Eaters and all the people know it. They still praise him for it".
"No, you can't just walk in there and arrest him. You can, however, go over there and have a talk with him. Take a couple of Aurors with you and just see what happens. Maybe there is a very good explanation for it".
" one," Amelia asked.
"Then you have the Aurors there to protect you".

It was at the end of the second day at the ministry that Albus walked back into his Hogwarts office. He was followed by Croaker and Augusta. Amelia could not be there because she had something else to do. She could not say what but Croaker had given her a good look. He knew that something was up but not just what. He also knew that he could trust her so he just let her go, but he still asked Madeye to go with her, just in case.
His thoughts were interrupted by Augusta. "I would have never guessed that there were so many like-minded with the same ideas of the Dark Lord Than I have seen today".
Flashback.
It was thirty minutes after eight when Croaker walked into the Witenagemot chamber. He gazed around and saw halve of the people there who had been there the day before. He also saw some of the Wives taking the place of their late husbands. One of them was Narcissa. That little smile she had told him that something had gone right he didn't know what but he was eager to find out.
As he looked at the face of Albus he could still see that he was a little stuck in his own way. He was trying to leave it behind but he had a long way to go of his own. So Croaker was glad that he would step down as chief Warlock when they got the last piece of Voldemort. After it, he would stay on as headmaster. Internally Croaker was glad about it. He could not point a good replacement right now, sure there was Minerva she could do it. His feelings, however, told him she would be important in the life of Harry. What or why he didn't know but again he was eager to find out.
He looked down to the floor and saw one of his unspeakable's walk in with the first ministry worker. Those were named by the Death Eaters that had been thrown through the veil the day before.
The three of them gave a deep sigh and knew that they would be in for another long day. One after the other was brought in and taken away again. Most of them went back to their spots because they were agreeing with the thoughts of the dark side. Yet agreeing with it was not enough to convict them. Most of them were doing just that. They were agreeing but not participating in that way. The once that were, were trialed and sent to Azkaban. Twenty went in for five or more years. Seven were placed in Azkaban for life. Two of them were thrown through the veil that same day. At the end of the day, they found the three of them sitting in the office of the headmaster of Hogwarts who was also Chief Warlock for the time he had left in the post.
End Flashback.
Croaker looked up at Augusta. "I can't say I liked it but I was afraid of it. It has only been the last two or three weeks that people started to see another side of the sickle. The moment the Potters were killed and Frank and Alice were put into St. Sorry Augusta but it all went down after that night. It was not long after it that Minister Bagnold stepped down and Minister Fudge took her place. He gave all the Death Eaters a second chance because he believed their lies about being put under the imperious curse. Lucius and the other Death Eaters took over and we stepped aside and let it all happen, while we were looking on. Dark times were over and we all went with it while Lucius and the Death Eaters placed their foot between the door. It was subtle at first but slowly we all started to go with it and the Dark side took over, brainwashing a lot of people as they went on year after year. We didn't do anything about it and were only patching things up left and right. This, however, all stopped the moment Little Harry gave us all the Death Eaters with one innocent little question".
They all gave a little laugh while Albus looked down sadly. He knew that little Harry had done something they all should have done a long time ago. Albus gave another deep sigh "I know this is a little late but I do blame myself for all of it".
Augusta saw the hurt in the eyes of Albus. It was at that time that she clearly saw that Albus hadn't done it deliberately. He knew he had done wrong but his intentions had been right. "Albus, It is not over, you can do it right this time around. I understand that you will drop your post as the Chief".
Albus nodded "Yes, but not only as the chief. My membership on the ICW will also come to an end. I will stay on until this is all over and we find a new Chief and Member. but after that, I will only be the headmaster of Hogwarts and help if or where I'm needed".
Croaker looked on and hat to jump in. "Say Albus if you had your pick who would be the next chief".
Albus smiled and looked over at Augusta. "You, Augusta would do the best job. As for the new member of the ICW, I'm still thinking of it. Now I do think I will have Minerva as my second hand at Hogwarts and I also think I will give her some extra tasks".
"Augusta smiled. "I don't think she will go for it. She has pointed out an idea and she is will to go all the way with it. Now I do know she will stay at Hogwarts but she will have other tasks to do".
"Really what" Albus had to ask. He, however, didn't get and Answer because the floo erupted in green flames as Amelia stepped out of it.
"So here you all are, I hate to inform you all but get home now because we will have another big day ahead of us tomorrow. I just arrested Bartimius SR and JR".
This was it again for this time? Bellatrix will come first but I will see you all soon. I do not know when but like I said when I started this chapter. I will not drop the story there is still a lot to come.
Gr Winmau.
