I don't own KHR, HP, anything from Marvel, Sherlock, or Ranma 1/2!
Quick Note: I really am getting tired of the Team chapters, but we're almost done, I think this is the last "Team" chapter! Yay!
Guest: While Dumbledore didn't exactly create Voldemort, he did have a hand in his creation, and it doesn't help that he was friends with Grindelwald. While the PR would be a slight nightmare, it's all hearsay and there's no evidence to back it up. Public opinion might be swayed, but it's not enough to take him down.
Shinigami: Blaise will start to remember, slowly, as things return to him. However, he may be a bit different once he realizes what's happened/happening. It is a possibility that Lockhart got Harry, but with as much as Hermione and Ron were around him, I am unsure at this time.
Gathering the Team: Part 9
The arrival of Draco, Sirius, Ukyo, Squalo, Chrome, the Greengrass', and the two Zabini's at the Hibari was almost spot on, except that they were coming, while Harry, Molly, Cologne, Mousse, Shamal, Lussuria, Akane, Andromeda, Healer Tyler, and Mukuro were heading out. Mukuro and Chrome quickly passed the other information to catch each other up.
"Mukuro, are you all right?" Harry asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, Harry. Chrome and I just swapped stories, mentally. It's a twin thing we can do," Mukuro calmed his newest little cousin.
"So, why does Draco look like he wants to come with us?" Harry frowned worriedly.
"Apparently, he got in the middle of a fight with some Death Eaters, over the Greengrass Family. He will be fine. Chrome is watching out for him and will make sure that Ranma has a chat with him," Mukuro smiled at the younger boy. "I'm more worried about that Blaise fellow..."
"What about Blaise?" Harry stuck to the Mist user like glue, and Akane stayed behind both of them.
"He didn't just have Dumbledore modify his memories and they aren't coming back as quickly as some of yours did, because there were different people at different times. Tell me, what do you know of Gilderoy Lockhart?" Mukuro frowned curiously.
"He was our teacher for Defense Against the Dark Arts. Not much of one, mind you, as he was found out to be a fraud. He'd basically run around different countries steal the stories of people who'd done amazing things, and then he'd memory charm them and claim them as his own. Of course, he tried the same thing with Ron and me when we went down to the Chamber of Secrets in the Myrtle's Bathroom," Harry shrugged. "Not too much to tell, except that he was full of himself, grabbed Ron's wand, which was broken, and then memory charmed himself on accident."
"And what did Dumbledore do about the fact that this was found out to be true?" Akane asked curiously as she added to the conversation.
"Nothing. Just gave the end of the year speech, like usual," Harry shrugged.
"Harry, that's not normal. Any teacher that is found of falsifying documents like that can end up in major trouble. It sounds like Dumbledore didn't tell his superiors... Wait, doesn't your school have a Board?" Akane asked curiously.
"Board? You'd have to ask Hermione. They don't talk about anything like that when I'm around, but... I do recall Draco's dad saying something about being on the Board of Governors, and asking Dumbledore to step down, last year," Harry frowned as he felt like he really had to scrape up that memory.
"We'll double check with Draco and Hermione when we return," Mukuro told Akane and Harry.
"No need," Andromeda stated calmly. "Lucius is one of the sitting members of the Board of Governors at Hogwarts. There are others, like Augusta Longbottom, Gareth Tiddle, Charity McNair, and Avery Nott."
"Three of which were suspected Death Eaters," Molly grit her teeth in anger.
"Actually, there were four," Andromeda stated calmly. "Malfoy, McNair, Nott, and Tiddle. It was later found that McNair didn't know her brother was a Death Eater."
"How long does it take to get to St. Mungos?" Mousse asked curiously.
It was Healer Tyler who spoke up, "You're lucky I just finished giving instructions to Nana after getting a download on Sherlock's Mind Palace."
"Actually, we should be there in a few steps, thanks to Healer Tyler," Mukuro smirked. "She was able to give me a destination, so we've been Mist-traveling for our entire conversation.
"We're here," Healer Tyler stated coolly. "Now, which ward do you need to get into?"
"Janus Thackery," Harry handed the Healer the note he'd gotten from Neville.
"I see. That won't be easy," Healer Tyler sighed.
"Sweetie, some of us are assassins and hitmen, we'll be fine," Lussuria reassured the Healer.
"Fine. I want Molly, Andromeda, Shamal, Sorella, Harry, and Akane with me. Mousse, Cologne, and Mukuro, create a distraction and get Mousse's eyes fixed. If they can't, I'll take a look when we return to the Hibari," Healer Tyler felt better now that she was sort-of in charge.
"Still's an awful lot of people. I'll hide everyone in your group, except Harry and you from the other visitors and staff," Mukuro stated, knowing he'd get no argument.
"Well, let's get cracking!" Cologne dragged Mukuro and Mousse away to a different part of the hospital.
"Everyone ready?" Healer Tyler asked.
"Let's get going already!" Molly hissed in annoyance, but that was all they needed before they were off towards the Janus Thackery Ward.
Meanwhile, in Nana's mind with Luna and a surprised Sherlock, they had made quite a bit of progress! Where before there had only been a stained glass window, now there was a hotel that was built like a fortress. Sherlock didn't know where Nana had gotten the idea for this hotel, as it had quite a few surprises, but she kept telling him that it wasn't finished, just yet.
Back in St. Mungos, it didn't take them too long to reach the Janus Thackery Ward, but once they made it in, Healer Tyler immediately stunned the helper that was working on the Longbottoms, "Shit! Shit! Shit! Sorry Harry, but that witch was close to killing them. That's a potion and you see that pink color? It's got hemlock in it. A bit deluded, but still... Hemlock!"
That was all it took for Andromeda to make a decision, "Then we are taking them with us. If this hospital isn't safe for them, I say we remove them from it."
"We can't just remove them! What if someone sees-" Molly began to argue.
"LADIES! ENOUGH!" Healer Tyler yelled angrily, "We're taking them with us, after Lussuria and Shamal take a look at them. In the mean time, why don't we three interrogate this witch?"
Both witch's agreed to that and together they dragged the witch with the hemlock away to be interrogated, most likely in a broom closet.
"Shamal, is there anything we can do to help?" Akane asked hopefully.
"Make sure no one comes in the door and sees what we're doing," Shamal nodded to her. "Harry, I need you to be our distraction if someone does come."
"On it, Shamal," Harry stood at the door, glancing at Lussuria and Shamal to see what they were doing to Alice and Frank Longbottom.
It hadn't been even a few minutes later when Healer Tyler returned, fuming, along with a grouchy Andromeda, and a furious Molly, "Death Eater supporter. Distant cousin to the Lestrange Family."
"We're not completely sure, sweetie, but we believe that we have a seventy-five percent chance of reviving the Longbottoms, if we can get them out of here," Lussuria informed Healer Tyler.
"Wonderful. That's better than what they had before. As much as I don't condone taking things or people from hospitals, in this case, we're going to make an exception," Healer Tyler replied stubbornly. "Harry you'll need to send a note to Neville about where his parents have been taken. We're taking them to the Hibari."
"Think we could make it just the address and tell him to only come with him and his gran? We don't need to have them bring Algie, do we?" Harry winced hopefully.
"No, we do not. Longbottom Manor wasn't where Frank and Alice were attacked. If they had been, Longbottom Manor would have been destroyed. They were at their townhouse. Not as many wards," Andromeda sighed. "I tried to talk them into staying with Augusta, but neither of them wanted to have to deal with Algie."
"So, how are we getting them out of here? Carrying them would be almost ridiculous," Akane stated.
"That's why we have three witches," Mukuro came into the room. "Relax, Mousse's eyes have been fixed. They are waiting out in the hall. Molly and Andromeda are going to levitate the Longbottoms and then we'll be back at the Hibari in no time."
"Mukuro, don't jinks us," Akane grumbled, just as someone tried to open the Janus Thackery Ward door. Luckily, Akane was able to hold it shut, "Guys, do something fast!"
Healer Tyler was the one who quickly put the witch who'd tried to kill the Longbottom's into Alice's old bed. She pushed Frank's bed up against the door. Mukuro got the gist of the idea and hid them all in his Mist.
It didn't take long, but the person on the other side of the door noticed that there was a patient out of bed, and not visible in the room, "Sound the alarm! A patient is walking around from the Thackery Ward!"
Healer Tyler looked to Mukuro with a smirk, "Nice job, kid. Your illusions are top notch."
"Why thank you, Healer, you are too kind," Mukuro bowed with a grin on his face. "Shall we take our leave, ladies, gentlemen, Harry?"
"Let's go," Lussuria nodded and soon they had easily escaped St. Mungos with their precious cargo and were back at the Hibari.
"I can't believe that went that easily," Andromeda paled as she gently floated Alice onto a large King sized bed, Molly put Frank next to her in said bed.
"You're telling me, but can you believe that we made it here and back to Mungos in such a short time? I don't believe that the Knightbus is that quick," Molly commented.
"We'll have to wait for Nana to wake back up to tell us more, I doubt that these friends and family of hers will be as forthcoming with her out," Andromeda sighed softly.
"It is best to wait for Mama, so please, be patient," Mukuro smirked as both ladies jumped at the sound of his voice. He was a sneaky Mist, after all. Even if they didn't know what a Mist was, yet.
