Welcome back, I hope you all had a fun Christmas and new year, I apologise for the lateness of the update I have been busy with three other stories which I have stuck in my very empty head.

But here we are, thankyou again for all those who fav/follow this little story and to those who left reviews.

Well ready away, Nickp41…out

Chapter 27

The meeting and fallout.

What happened between Harry and Draco flew around the school. All the deatheater kids were in groups discussing the fallout of the situation. Draco of course wasn't invited, as once again he was the cause. They all knew that their parents would be angry as they were told to lay low, and keep their ears to the ground, which is something none of them had done.

Harry and his ladies were sat in front of a very angry looking headmaster.

"Harry, I am most upset to hear of your actions today" he said trying to stare the boy down.

Harry frowned.

"If this is the way this conversation is going I think you should call me Lord Hogwarts, because I wouldn't want you to think that I didn't have the power to take the course of action that I did, and maybe more" Harry replied powerfully.

"See Harry, this is why I didn't want you to take up your lordships. With power comes a huge responsibility" the headmaster sighed.

"And yet I am not the one causing the problems. I did warn you earlier that we may have to take action against Malfoy" Harry explained.

"You arrogant shit, just like your father when he was made Lord" Snape spat while balling his fists in anger.

Millicent looked up at the man.

"May I ask why you are here professor? I believed it was a meeting between Harry's family, friends and the headmaster, and you are not either" she said coldly.

"Watch your tongue girl" Snape growled.

Harry stood up.

"You watch yours Professor, and please answer my betrotheds question" he asked with steel in his words.

"I trust Professor Snape, so invited him, also he is head of Mr Malfoy's house" Dumbledore stated firmly, making Snape almost smile.

Harry sat down again with a sad sigh.

"Well I do not trust him, and he can't be head of Draco's house, as he is a lost student bereft of house and now honour" he said and smiled at the teacher.

"I demand you put Draco back in my house" Snape spat.

Daphne now stood up.

"It's only your house for as long as we deem fit, and the way you are talking to Lord Slytherin, you might be removed by the next word from you" she said slowly in an ice-cold tone, she then took her seat and looked back at the headmaster and concluded. "It's time for you to leave Professor Snape, or their will be repercussions".

"You insolent." he spat.

"Severus, go now, before you regret your words" Dumbledore interjected and watched the bat like man storm out. "You shouldn't treat him like that, he's a good man, and was a friend of your mother Harry".

Harry pinched the bridge of his nose.

"He's not a good man, and I doubt he was a friend of my mother, otherwise he would treat me better. If he was then how would I know as she's dead and you kept me locked away from all hers and my father's friends who as I understand would've happily given me a home" Harry retorted, making the headmaster flinch with regret, "but we digress, what was is you wanted to talk to me about headmaster? and please bear in mind that Draco made his own choice when he threatened Millicent and Pansy with rape and murder, so as the muggles say that boat has sailed".

Dumbledore sagged. At that moment he saw Lilly Evans in front of him, and knew that Harry was like her; a will of iron and he won't be budged.

"Ok, I've been looking into Voldemort's horcruxes, and I do believe we are looking for Hufflepuff's cup and the diadem of Ravenclaw" he explained.

"I thought the diadem was lost to time" said Luna.

"Ah Miss Lovegood, I didn't realise you were in Harry's group. Yes, you are right, but I viewed a memory from the grey lady, and she was coerced by Tom Riddle into confiding with him where it was located" he explained.

"From this morning I am consort to House Ravenclaw, so Hermione and I will be like sisters" Luna said brightly drawing chuckles from the girls. "Wouldn't the founder's heirs be linked to such magical items?" Luna asked in a moment of clarity.

Dumbledore smiled, and life seemed to come back to him.

"I believe you maybe right Miss Lovegood, but as they are not yet the Ladies of Hogwarts we shall have to wait for that time" he explained.

Hermione frowned.

"What does that mean headmaster?" she asked.

"You have to have rumpy pumpy with Harry to claim your ladyship's" Luna answered happily watching many a red face appear "you lucky things" she chuckled.

Dumbledore held up his hand.

"Be that as it may, I don't want you to rush into anything" he said calmly.

"Oh, headmaster you silly goose, after yule there won't be single maid in this room" Luna said dreamily.

Harry shook his head, which he always seemed to do after Luna had been talking.

"Anyway, is that all headmaster?" he asked.

"Well the last thing was, Nagini Voldemort's snake, I think she maybe a horcrux too, because it showed way too much intelligence for a snake" Dumbledore explained.

Harry smiled.

"Oh, don't worry about that, she's dead" he said to the amazed looking headmaster.

"Whattt, how?" he said frowning, "how do you know, Severus would've known if that had happened" Albus said.

"Let's say someone I know killed the snake while escaping, and maybe Snape is not being totally forthcoming with all of the information" Harry suggested.

"I don't believe it. Harry, who told you the snake is dead? I must know" Albus demanded.

Harry stood up with all his ladies.

"You have your secrets Sir, allow me mine. Good evening headmaster" he said and the group filed out of the office and headed back to the fort.

Harry was sat up in the lounge alone writing a letter to Gringotts, instructing them to recall all Black debt form the boy's families. He knew that this would cause trouble, but he had to protect his family. Then he wrote a letter to Narcissa to ask how things were going and if they needed any help. Harry called for Dobby to hand deliver the letters, then he slowly headed upstairs and pushed the bedroom door open into total darkness.

"You took your time Potter" came Daphne's voice through the darkness.

He smiled to himself.

"Sorry Greengrass, house business" he explained with a chuckle.

His bedside lamp flickered and his bed was illuminated to show the relaxed form of Daphne wearing a knee length emerald green silk nighty, and like Millicent's it showed a bit of cleavage through a lace top.

Harry drew in his breath as he took in the sight.

"you look stunning Daphne".

She raised an eyebrow.

"You seem surprised" she hissed in an amused tone.

"Not surprised Daphne, just happy to be with you, now and forever" he said walking closer until she raised her wand at him.

"Smooth Potter. Now strip for Mistress Slytherin" she ordered with a glint in her eye.

He laughed.

"I hope you don't want me to dance as I do it Daphne".

She barked a laugh out.

"Oh god no, I remember the yule ball! Until you have lessons I never want to see you dance. Now strip for your Mistress" she laughed sending a stinging hex at him making him jump.

She watched him slowly disrobe with well-hidden excitement. He was suddenly standing there in just his boxers, his well-defined body had drawn many a witches eyes during the match day prank, which did remind her about having to discipline the brown bitch. She then noticed how the front of his boxers had impressively tented, 'ah so he likes Mistress Daphne' she thought.

"Stop" she ordered and wondered how far he could be teased. "on your knees"

She was amused when he kneeled and she slipped on a pair of heels that she had hidden to bring out depending on how well this went. She strode over to him and slid her wand across his neck. "So, Harry, or should I call you slave? Hmmmmm, no Harry will do…...for now" she said coldly, grabbed his hair and pulled his head back. "So, Milly told me something interesting today during class, do you know what she said?".

Harry winced.

"No Daphne, I don't" he said straining.

"Oh, Daphne now is it?" she sneered poking her wand at his throat.

"No Mistress Slytherin" he said softly.

She patted his cheek and headed back to the bed without releasing Harry's hair.

"She said parseltongue, and that's it and then her eyes glazed over again" she said and released him before laying back onto the bed kicking her heels off. "Now stand up and let me see all of you".

Harry stood up and dropped shorts maintaining eye contact with Daphne until she flicked her eyes southwards, blushed and bit her bottom lip. She beckoned him to her and he climbed onto the bed where they started to kiss and touch, and like the night before parselmagic got an airing and the silencing charms broke once again, not by a accident but by the force of magic caused by the couple who were in love.

Gringotts

Director Ragnok was smirking, it isn't unheard of for them to do this, but it has never been seen till today. To his left was a letter from Lord Black, and in front of him sat four very angry looking wizards. The goblin grabbed some paperwork and started to shuffle them which seemed to annoy them even more, so with another smirk he did it again,

"Why are we here Ragnok?" spat Malfoy, who along with Lords Nott, Crabbe and Goyle had been summoned to the bank.

"And a good morning to you too Lord Malfoy" the Goblin said with his normal sneer. "I have a letter here detailing some actions by your heirs towards either Lord Black, or his betrothed".

Nott sneered.

"Lord Black? You mean that half-blood Potter" he growled.

Ragnok looked coldly upon the Lord.

"Be careful Lord Nott, the Lord Potter is a friend and ally of the goblin nation" he said and saw the uppity Lord pale slightly. "So, as I said actions taken by your heirs have deeply upset Lord Black, like ermm heir Malfoy who threatened rape and murder upon the young lord and all his family by you and the dark Lord" he announced, and Malfoy paled even more than Nott.

"Lords Crabbe and Goyle your heirs have continually bullied and threatened the young Lord and his ladies, but have also helped attack the Lord Black, which brings us to heir Nott he also joined in with the attack against the Lord Black, but he agreed with the threats given by the Malfoy heir" Ragnok said coldly.

"But they were punished for that attack" blurted out one brain cell Crabbe or Goyle, the goblin struggled to tell the human like boulders apart.

"That was a school punishment, this is a personal punishment" Ragnok sneered and paused to enjoy the anger that radiated off of the humans. "As of last night, Lord Slytherin has thrown heir Malfoy out of his house for constant threats and action unbecoming a member of his noble and ancient house".

Lord Malfoy jumped up.

"That is preposterous, he can't do that, every member of the Malfoy house has been in Slytherin" he shouted and fingered his wand until a guard came out of the wall unseen and pulled a sword making him sit back down.

"Well that is no longer the case, and if I know the young Lord, and I like to think I do, there will never be a Malfoy in the House of Slytherin again" he said to the now furious blonde ponce.

"I shall speak to Snape about this, or Dumbledore" Lucius growled.

The goblin shook his head.

"You can try my Lord, but this is above their pay grade, as the muggles say" and once again he smirked. "But we must get on or our time will once again make fools of us. As instructed by Lord Black all loans will be recalled and all monies and debts will be seized, and according to our files neither family has paid anything to the House of Black since the death of Arcturus Black. Also, the wedding contracts between House Black and House Malfoy and Lestrange have been cancelled the dowries have been reclaimed".

All four wizards stood up trying to draw their wand but were surrounded by a host of now very angry goblins with drawn swords who force the Lords to sit back down.

"Remember my Lords, this was not the young Lord's doing. Your heirs pushed him, and he pushed back, so if you're going to be angry with anyone, you should be with your heirs who have seemed to forget their stations in your world" Ragnok explained to nothing but Stoney silence.

"Well I have here your up to date statements. Lord Crabbe and Goyle as you can see yours is in the red, I shall give you two weeks before we foreclose, good day to you gentlemen" he said kindly and watched the four men stomp out. He wrote Harry a quick note, and then spent the rest of the day laughing himself silly, he really did like Harry Potter.

Back at Hogwarts

Harry was looking tired and Daphne was staring into the ether along with Millicent, who knew exactly what the blonde was feeling and was reminiscing from her time. The rest of the girls were just staring at Harry and mental jockeying for positions in Harry's bed. It was then that Harry noticed the four boys from the Slytherin table, even though one was no longer part of the house, and watched as they were led out by a very angry looking Snape.

"What do you think that is Harry?" asked Pansy, staring at the retreating boys back.

He gave her a smile.

"If I had a guess, I'd say that due to my actions yesterday, their fathers have been stripped of huge amounts of galleons that they owed House Black, oh speaking of which" he said as all heads turned apart from Daphne and Milly to see a Gringotts eagle owl, he emptied the pouch and opened the letter and gave a bark of a laugh. "Well it looks like Crabbe and Goyle will have to dance for food after two weeks, unless they get bailed out, but by the looks of this, it won't be by Nott or Malfoy" he chuckled.

Pansy looked amazed.

"But the Malfoys were always minted?" she said, getting a strange look from other's. "Oh, Luna taught me some new words, ain't that right homey?" she said and gave Luna a high five.

Harry just shook his head and handed the note over to Pansy whose mouth fell open and Harry just nodded back.

"I want you so fucking bad right now" Pansy said out loud and the clapped her hand to her mouth making all the girls giggle.

Hermione and Harry were walking together between classes.

"Can I ask you something Harry?" she said softly.

He linked his arm through hers.

"Of course, you can Mione, shoot".

"Errrrrr what did you do to Milly and Daphne, they are so happy and mellow" she asked coyly.

Harry barked out a laugh.

"You really want to know?" he asked and saw her blush, so he stopped her and whispered in her ear and she blushed ever redder and could feel a tingle down below.

"Oh my"

They continued to walk to their next class.

"Yeah according to them, it's not done in wizarding circles, and then you add a bit of snake talk and it's a winner" he said, as Hermione struggled to walk in a straight line.

At evening dinner Dumbledore walked over to Harry.

"Lord Potter, I have been notified that student Crabbe and Goyle have been removed from school due to financial troubles, would you be willing to let them attend free of charge" he asked kindly.

Harry looked at the four founder's girls who all just shrugged.

"Of course, headmaster, I am not inflexible, but one transgression against anyone in this school and they are gone" Harry answered, and with a nod he headed back to his chair, "I'll give them till yule holiday" he said making the table laugh.

Just then a little screech owl landed in front of him.

"It's all fucking go for this kid I tell you" Harry said dryly.

He opened the letter.

My Lord Black

Harry could you please come to Grimmauld Place as soon as possible, things are not working out as I had hoped, Bella is having trouble adjusting.

I understand you are a busy man, and I know you are out with Nymphadora tomorrow night, ripping it up as she put it, though I do not understand what she means.

Oh and she has deemed fit to tell me you rock in the sack, maybe you can explain what she is talking about, I truly don't understand a word that girl says.

Hope to see you soon

Narcissa Black xx

After reading that Harry didn't know whether to laugh or cry and handed the letter to Daphne waking her from her reverie. She also seemed to be torn.

"Thursday after class would be good to go and see them, errr I don't understand the next bit, but I have to agree with the last" she said blushing.

Harry smiled at her and mouthed to her. 'Thank you, Mistress,' and winked at her, then he saw the ice queen persona drop and she gave him a 'you will pay for that Potter' and a curt nod, while he gulped.

"Daphne, Daddy is going to send me that riding crop you wanted" said Luna happily.

Harry saw the Slytherin's eyes flash.

"I didn't know you rode horses Daphne" he said quietly.

She just gave him a cold look.

"I don't".

"Well I wouldn't use it on a hippogriff Daphne, but it should be here tomorrow" the Ravenclaw said in her sing song voice.

"Thank you Luna, I may need it" the ice queen said, making the other's look from her to Harry.

Harry scrabbled in his bag and then wrote a letter and sent it back to Narcissa, and when he'd finished he looked at Daphne sharing a whispered conversation with Tracey who had hunger in her eyes, and as Daphne locked eyes with Harry she gave a predatory smirk, and a shiver shot down his spine as he realised that last night wasn't going to be the only night like that. He saw her purse her lips and blow him a kiss, his libido sabotaged him once again.

Once again Harry found himself walking by himself. 'I should really stop doing this" he thought with a chuckle, and popped into the kitchens to see Dobby and Winky, and chatted with them about the future. Winky was being very excited about looking after babies one day and after that he was looking forward to a quiet night in the fort, a nice meal and early to bed, alone.

He must be the only boy in the wizarding world who has to negotiate an early night alone. He knew most of the girls would obey the law of Hermione, the only wild cards were Tracey and Luna he chuckled at the pair. He was walking down towards the grounds for a walk around the lake before heading in for dinner, when he heard a voice come from behind him.

"Knut for your thoughts Harry".

Harry turned around and saw Lavender Brown leaning against the wall.

"Oh, hey Lavender, you ok?" he asked.

"I am now green eyes. Want some company?" she asked with a predatory grin on her face.

He ran his fingers through his hair.

"Errrrr better not Lav, just wanted a quiet walk around the lake before dinner, but thank you" he said with a slight bow and started to walk away until he heard the click click of her heels and felt her looping her arm with his.

"Oh come now Harry, no need to be scared of little old me" she giggled and pulled him through the door and out into the grounds, "so when do I get to see the inside of your little fort Harry?" she asked while fluttering her eyelashes.

Harry tried not to look at her, because her top was way too revealing. He thought one good cough and those puppies would be free.

"Sorry Lav, it's not a tourist attraction, it's my home" he said.

She cuddled next to him even more.

"Now now Harry, I saw all your ladies in the dining hall, we could pop in there for a quick tour, and no one would be any the wiser" she purred.

He shook his head.

"Can't do it Lav, it's not just my home, and my girlfriends wouldn't like it" he said sternly.

She gave a giggle.

"Surely you have room for little old me, I'll be good for you. I'm not as stuffy as all those pure blooded girls, we can have some real fun" she said in a sultry tone.

"Now listen, don't talk about them that way, I won't have it" Harry growled.

She held up her hand up.

"Sorry, sorry I was just teasing you Harry, it's just nice to get some alone time with you finally" she said softly.

"My life is a busy one Lav, and to be honest we had the past six years to get to know each other, and we haven't, and now I'm a very taken man" he said and started to head back to the school .

"Never mind Harry, I've always like a challenge" she said and then spent the rest of the journey silent until they were back in the entrance hall. "I'll see you soon...Harry Potter" and gently kissed him on the cheek before wandering into the dining hall.

Harry just shook his head and disappeared into the tunnel, unknown to him eyes were everywhere, and Lavender knew it to, and it didn't take long for the news to spread and be warped around the school 'HARRY POTTER WAS SEEN KISSING LAVENDER BROWN'.

Well their we go for another fornight, I hope you enjoyed it. Stay safe and see you in two weeks.
