Good Dumbeldore vs Evil Dumbeldore ch. 4
I OWN AND REGRET NOTHING!
...
The Sisterhood of Apollo was surprised to find their sister Trelawney returned to them so suddenly...Although greatly healed, she was still in a bad state...it would take years for her to recover...but it seemed that she'd been freed from all the bindings and curses that kept her subservient and impossible for even THEM to rescue.
This baffled them. As the only way for this to happen so clean, quick and non-lethal is if the person who put them on her willingly took them off and restored her to full health.
But that made no sense! Dumbeldore was the ultimate wolf in shepherds clothing! Not only had he kidnapped their sister and abused her gift for evil. But he'd also destroyed whatever influence and credibility both the sisterhood and the fine art of divination ever had!
No, none of this made any sense...and finding that note marked by Dumbeldore that both apologized and suggested they read the next international edition of the Daily prophet for a better explanation...only served to confuse them more...
...
Dumbeldore sighed as he put the time-turner back in his cloak. Well, I've done all that I could reasonably do in this one night...now it's time to go back to Hogwarts and let the pieces fall where they may... Thought a melancholy Dumbeldore.
He stepped out of the Malfoy house where he'd just killed Malfoy Sr. Dumbeldore knew he should be thrilled that all Deatheaters and their sympathizers were now dead and penniless- with the exception of some of the wives who had children...them he just stripped of their magic and fertility...which as far as they were concerned...was worse then death- but Dumbeldore couldn't shake the guilt of where the power that allowed him to do this had come from...
It took him awhile; but he now knew the horrible truth of how his magic, vitality, strength and intellect was far greater then it should be...
Wulfric had enacted multiple dark rituals to enhance himself! It was...
"Fear not children...You've nothing to fear...this is all for the greater good..." Said Wulfric reassuringly as he lead the now reassured children to the sacrificial alter...
it was...
"I'm sorry it had to come to this, but please understand. Your death is for the greater good." Said Wulfric as he convinced the young widow to give her life to give him power...
Their were no words for how horrible it all was!
Dumbeldore tried to shake his head of these horrid memories...he didn't like it, but he was pragmatic enough to take advantage of it to at least clean up SOME of the mess this world had become...
...
Hermione was depressed. The great hall had filled up with students to begin the first day at Hogwarts. She should be happy..but how could she be? Harry was till in the hospital wing recovering from the dementor attack on the train...Malfoy was being a bigger Pratt then usual...and Ron...Ron was stuffing his face like a pig and already demanding she do his homework for him.
Hermione just shook her head in disgust at this. Why do I find him attractive again? The thought surprised her...but as if by magic, she forgot it in an instant.
BOOM!
The great hall doors burst open and Dumbeldore came marching in, everyone immediately turned to him surprised.
McGonagall walked up to him quickly. "Albus, are you alright? None of us could find you-
REVERSE OBLIVIATE!
Shouted Dumbeldore as he cast a spell on all the teachers- minus Snape -he then quickly casts a few spells to soothe the trauma they would now have from the floodgate of returned, horrible memories that Wulfric had wiped from them. All without breaking his stride.
Snape gaped in disbelief as all the other teachers broke down in tears, he whirls to the still coming Albus.
"Albus! Have you lost your mind!? Why would- Those were the last words he would utter, as Albus had just reduced him to ash.
Albus knew he should feel bad about killing an analogue of the man who'd become like a son to him back home...but no. He'd seen too many memories of all the horrible things he'd happily done under Wulfric's orders.
This monster that wore the face of one of his loved one's...meant nothing to him.
Needless to say, the students had begun to scream and panic. Dumbeldore quickly sealed all the doors and waited for the students to calm down.
Once they did, he cast a spell on himself to amplify his voice: "I apologize for all this...for everything. An explanation for my actions will be forthcoming in the Daily prophet- Which should be arriving early...now."
Sure enough, a swarm of owls came in and dropped a paper on every student, who immediately began to read them.
Dumbeldore sighed as he sat back...and watched as the world was turned upside down for many...
...…...
TO BE CONTINUED?
AN: I know it says "in-progress" but really I just don't like boxing myself into a corner. For now this is more of a one-shot that I might continue one day...but probably won't.
But, hey. Feel free to use whatever elements you want from this, if you want! Or maybe give me ideas?
Love me, flame me, review me
