Return Of The Marauders
Disclaimers: Harry Potter doesn't belong to me, the story belongs to me, everything else belongs to J.K. Rowling and Warner brothers
Warnings: For this chapter, Harry unloads everything that he and Neville are feeling as lets Deloris Umbridge and Percy have it finally. This Chapter includes 1/3 of the venting in The Order Of The Phoenix, as well. As the D.A. is born that year and he says his feelings, regarding his bonds to Moody and Remus. As well as being able to come into his own as he tells Minerva and Severus the truth.
In how he feels about them, and before they do a tour of the castle for the Dursleys and the Grangers, as the quartet and Draco get their bonds into place. Before the school term starts as Fudge also fires Umbridge before the events of the first book even begin now, for the quartet and the twins as they start.
Chapter 37: Board Meetings And Preparations II
"They blew up their table this time Professor?" I repeated and she nodded to me. "Yes honey they did, it's the exploding hex Filius was teaching their class. But your peers in the class ahead of you, they put too much power into the exploding hex this time. And it acted like a stick of dynamite and destroyed their side of the table this time."
"Filius told them never to try that, but your peer, the one you and Hermione told off, were the ones that did it." she said and I started laughing and nodded. "God come on guys, you keep that up and you're going to destroy a window next!" Mione said as she and the quartet started laughing and the faculty nodded with a chuckle as she answered her.
"And you thought you had it bad with us to Ginny's age group Profesor, but us four, it's turning into a madhouse around here to the point you need your own future students. In helping you control it before they break anything else after blowing up the door or table. Let alone breaking a window next." Fred said and the faculty nodded in agreement.
"Yes and it doesn't help you guys keep reminding us of your predecessors as Minerva, Filius, Pomona, Hagrid, Poppy and I were around for your parents age group. Say the Marauders when they were your age, Frederick, as such, you don't need to over do it." Madam Hooch said to him and he smiled as he answered her and Minerva smiling.
"Anyone want to chance that happening again right now, like the trio in our case it was pranks, my brother and the duo it was doing the right thing, because it keep up. And we got further problems around here, you already know we, as athletes. We tend to end up in the hospital too much, but so far with the season over, things taking it down a notch."
"But next term don't count on my house staying out of trouble too much if someone insults her and for a second time if the troll is let loose in the castle again." he said and they nodded. "And this time better keep an eye on the trio, and before this results in repeat performance of that." Severus told him and the twins nodded to the orders gently.
"So what other ideas have you got aside from what you suggested so far?" she asked and I explained that. "We got a junior version to class sports they are called Peewee leagues, for different sports. As first years are not allowed till second year to join, why not have a junior version to the school house teams as practice." I said and Madam Hooch nodded.
"We add a second library with a mixture of fantasy, science fiction and mystery novels, to help our youngest get settled in and we start running fieldtrips so they enjoy things. That is the purebloods can enjoy a real muggle experience now finally here. Say going to an amusement park, a field trip to the ministry, Gringotts and so on right now."
"The dueling in D.A. training is great idea, so we add fencing to it, swimming club and few other clubs, chess club was a good idea as we also have that. But a wide selection of clubs and a few other things added to the school one being Phys ed. That's short for physical education and trust me you'll need it with our primary sport being quidditch."
"The youngest cubs, my age group and the girls get started in a normal half and half program, as time goes on. We move up in wizard in education as the muggle subjects get dropped until graduation finally. The twin's to Cedric's year extra subjects get dropped as they still have physical education added to it." I said and the faculty nodded to me then.
"Should we add physical education to the schedule as well?" she asked and I nodded and she wrote up a schedule and turned to Mione and me. "Harry, Hermione, what sports did you have in your world, and I mean ones that don't do a lot of damage?" she asked and I nodded as I wrote down the ones I thought they could use and gave it to her at that.
"Just what do you expect Umbridge could do to us as we lowered the bar in being normal wizards and mixing muggle ways in with our ways. Now that the minister and the wizengamot fired her and destroyed her decree on the wolves?" I asked and Dumbledore answered that firmly as Amelia crossed her arms at the question as he said it to me.
"The death eaters are going to get her in with them, just so they can try to take over the school, but there is a way to prevent that at the moment. You own the castle but you and Minerva can activate the guardians of the castle, that's the stone sculptures. That you saw scattered around the corridors of the school here at the moment, as such now."
"Who do you recommend does the changes and gives a real report about changes to Hogwarts?" he asked and I smiled. "The Quibbler, the Daily Prophet is nothing but lies, hold on, Toppy, get Rita Skeeter and get her over here now." I said and he nodded as he left. "What's wrong Harry?" Minerva asked and I explained that to her gently at that.
"She's the fourth unregistered Professor, the remark of being bugged comes into it, she's a beetle." I told her and they nodded in disgust. "In that the book verse, our original lives she was making up lies about us, the last one started this. Between us and the ministry until it kills Sirius and nearly me with him as Tom tried to possess my body that night."
"And you told me the reason you lessened contact with me Headmaster, is to prevent that from happening at all." I said and she nodded slowly. "Despite the fact she keeps coming to you for interviews, our death eater Slytherins. They know what she is and are giving her stories to discredit us as the two sources of good in our world, is that it Harry."
"So no one believes us until someone on our side is killed and, if Peter never got caught, they, the death eaters, lead you into a trap amd someone in the order is killed. When Sirius is your last remaining family as your godfather?" Dumbledore asked sternly and I nodded and they gave a stern nod to me as Toppy arrived then with a woman.
"Not just us, but Mione and Hagrid, us members that love him, we saw passed his size, his family background, so what if he was half giant, there is nothing wrong with him. Madam Maxime is also half giant, and she's just like him, they're not dangerous. Mione and me, and let me make this clear, you hag." I said, looking at Rita and she swallowed.
"Hold it son, let me." Dan said with a stern tone. "Who are you?" she asked and he crossed his arms. "Daniel Granger, I am a dental hygienist, a healer for teeth, but their relationship, the man that you made claims about is 14, she's turning 11. He's too bloody old for her and I prefer my baby girl with someone her own age now, as for Harry."
"This was us, when Severus and I were their age of going on 11 to 15 years old." he said and slammed a picture on the table as I saw my mother between him and Severus. And with a smile on her face, "In many ways, she reminds me of my best friend, female friend and practically my sister, Lilly Potter." he said and she paled as I said and drove it home.
"Mione is my best friend, my adoptive sister, my twin, our parents grew up together." I said and she paled and as Severus stood up then. "Your lies get her targeted, do you honestly expect to get away with that, there is no romantic relationship between them. He's betrothed to Ginevra Weasley?!" he growled in a furious tone and she swallowed.
"You and she...?" Rita asked and he nodded. "I am her best friend and James named me his legal guardian as his adoptive father. Things prior to this were already a staged set in ridicule, I am a reformed dark arts user working undercover. But I am a member of the Order Of The Phoenix now, you are doing our side." he said and she paled at that news.
"Alright young lady did you expect us to never find you're an unregistered animagus, a beetle no less?" Minerva asked and she paled at the question. "How did you...?" she started to ask and Severus hold up the book on the tournament then. "These books go up to when we lose a student and he is left traumatized by the act Skeeter, as such."
"We're giving you a chance, either you work for us in getting out the truth, or you're going to jail, for never registering yourself at the animagus department." he said sternly and she swallowed hard and nodded in resignation. "Harry, you're my star student, I am teaching you occlumency starting next term." he added and I nodded to him then gently.
"Will that stop the pains in my scar when he's in range?" I asked and he nodded. "Yes those pains are his trying to break into you head to spy on us. But you lock the door on our end he can't use you to get, what is in his eyes, the weapon to defeat you. You and the headmaster now, us, but show everything in your head to him, your mind."
"Your bonds with us, being with your trio, your bonds with the Marauders, me and Dan, a very deep bond with Vernon and Perunia and that can shove him out of your head. But remember, evil comes amongst to not only test the strength and will of you. As the victim, but to test the strength and will of the rest of us." he said and I nodded to him.
Pulling me into a hug I buried my head into his shoulder, before he looked into me eyes then gently. "We never gave other a chance in that timeline, you are my son, I turned on them to protect you and your parents. These next six years, I am doing everything it takes to protect you from now on." he said and I nodded as she looked between us then.
"Harry, as in Harry Potter?!" Rita repeated and I nodded. "Before you put in the report of my returning home to our world, today no less, I am making it highly clear. I will not do interviews with your paper, ever, that situation in the future now, that book. That brings you into it and into the castle is focused on the school term after, you want truths."
"Read the books, they are focused on the next four years during my return to our world and the fact I am busy acting what I am, a junior order member. And part of the junior auror academy before things start now, but take a note." I said sternly and she nodded as she pulled out a fast moving quill and we shook our heads at that as Mione said it.
"No quick quotes, use a real quill." she said sternly and Rita sighed and pulled a regular quill out. "Barty, you want to say it or should I at the moment, as the Aurors and the misuse of magics act are both held accountable for this choice that left him in Surrey?" Amelia asked and he nodded. "I'll do it Amelia." he said and she nodded as he stood up.
"Toppy get a camera crew in here as well." Fudge told him and he nodded and brought back several photographers as I said it to them and Dumbledore. "We go live in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..., now, go ahead Sir." I told them and they nodded. "What is this about exactly and what is happening here at Hogwarts?" Rita asked and he said it then firmly.
"For years our world catered to only being wizards, but now finally our ways have been called into question. Seen as medieval and the dark ages in the eyes of Muggleborns, the borns of the years ahead of future students when next year's class arrive. Have seen a very unfair truth brought to life finally and that has done a dis-service to the Potters."
"Our lost family and what it has done to everyone closest to them, including hiding a shocking truth. After returning home to our world finally, James and Lilly Potter, their son, Harry, has released a truth we never expected in why the nicknames of James gang. The names have come forward finally now, the lost member of their gang now finally."
"Peter Pettigrew was alive all this time, as his nickname of Wormtail, as we all know there is only one animal that has a tail that looks like worm. And further discovery now has revealed a truth that Peter never wanted us as the Ministry of Magic to find out. The truth has been in reverse all this time, Sirius Black is innocent." he said and that started it.
"How so exactly?" she asked and he explained as Hagrid grabbed Peter and shoved him forward at that question. "Everyone I present to you, the infamously dead Peter Thomas Pettigrew, alive and well, discovering a truth in the muggle world. We had a muggle Author seeing everything in our lives and writing it down, turning into a book now."
"Those books are focused on our young Savior himself and his return to our world, each chapter in the storyline was given a name. Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew and Remus Lupin come into the storyline in chapter Three of the storyline. The title of that Story is The Prisoner of Azkaban now and with that the truth was always in reverse now."
"Saying Sirius broke out of jail, in Azbakan, we now know why he did that, it was so he could arrest Peter Pettigrew as he exposed the truth. To us, Harry, his friends, the headmaster Albus Dumbledore and finally, his only close friend, and surrogate brother. Remus John Lupin, who, like Sirius, was a friend of the Evans/Potter family now."
"Learning that truth, Harry has delayed the real threat to our world from returning, until Chapter four in which we have organized a long awaited tradition. And between us and the governments of France and Bulgaria, I am pleased to announce that in 3.5 years. That tradition will once again start as the Tri-wizard tournament activates in year four."
"These books have told us the future preparing us for our once so called dead threat to return from the dead. Harry Potter and his trio, by unveiling Peter to us in the ministry, has delayed that threat for four years now from coming back a second time. Also involved in that now as he and his surrogate sister Hermione Jean Granger."
"They have called to the attention of the school board of governors there has to be a few changes in the school curriculum. We accepted those changes and in doing so, having revolutionized the teaching educations at Hogwarts school. As the future first years of Hogwarts school, they have called into question the increaslingly falling standards.
"When here at Hogwarts and the muggleborns or in our young Savior's case, have decided to offer their own opinions now." He said as I stepped forward as Mione, Ron, Neville and Draco came forward with me and we waved and they took our picture as the new quintet then as Dumbledore took charge as he said for them and the wizengamot.
"Our young savior, Harold James Potter, Harry to us who knew him in his life, who has just returned to our world. Has returned home and has joined with the other wizarding families, who are also starting school in September and he and his friends, the future. Learning that the muggle world has the books focused on our world, his life story."
"When in our world, his friends and new gang, the Bronze quartet, are now the junior version to his father's gang: The Marauders. Learning a truth that has revealed now, that our belief system has left him trapped in the muggle world without a family. Harry's first act was to expose to us as your government, and me as your headmaster for years."
"Now that we had an innocent man in prison, the group, the next two classes coming in that will, if the books that are being put into the curriculum are correct. Are the junior version to the society that fought our biggest opponent yet now. The man who could never defeat me at the time as we all know him by his alias, but his true name now."
"Everyone, is Tom Marvolo Riddle, Harry and I decided to reveal this truth to you now, but Tom Marvolo Riddle was the past, present and future of who must not be named. Let me show you." he said and wrote out his real name and swung his wand and the letters reorganized themselves into a sentence and the sextet nodded in shocked disbelief.
"You mean to tell me our entire country is to scared to say a bloody anagram?!" Rita said in shock and I nodded to her. "There are only three halfbloods in existence that go by a pseudonym, him, me and then the one between us. 'He' is 66, Hagrid is 63, the Halfblood before me is part of my parent's class who goes by the name of the Halfblood Prince."
"Now with those words the story of the three brothers comes into it, but of the deathly Hallows two are in the hands of the order and the last is Tom's maternal family. All will be revealed as the years go by, but before you start school everyone. We as your peers of your class are changing a few things for us entering school now finally here everyone."
"The rules are exact, first years can not make the house teams, so we decided to create a junior school league, if you wish to continue and want to play professionally. There is going to be a sign up sheet for Quidditch trials on your arrival here now. All muggleborns, we decide to add a few things from our world to the wizard including P.E., fencing."
"Field trips and a couple dozen other things from our world added to this, so both the board, the school and the ministry can bridge the gap. I, as your peer in class, if you need to talk to me I am open to more suggestions, but starting today now. Our class has decided to create a class council now, from all four house now everyone."
"I am the Gryffindor rep with Hermione Granger, Draco Malfoy will be Slytherin rep with Daphne Greengrass, Susan Bones with Ernie Macmillian, and Terry Boot with Padma Patil. The day school starts we are calling a class meeting to organize our class activities, before our schedule activates." I said and Dumbledore took it from there gently at that.
"Also starting next term we are adding a few members of the reactivated Order to the school to control things as the years go by. There will be a few changes to the staff when you arrive as well, but the core of the faculty and added staff will be here. Effective immediately, all wolves who harbored a grudge again Deloris Jane Umbridge now."
"Need not worry now, her law of restriction on you has been withdrawn and rescinded, starting August, the Wolfsbane potion will be on the market so you. All of you, aside from Death eater association will be able to go on it and get yourselves a job now. Starting next school year, there are to be three changes in faculty in the primary subjects."
"Care of Magical Creatures will be taught by Professor Grubbyplank, History Of Magic will be taken on by Remus John Lupin and as we all know. Defense Against The Dark Arts is jinxed, so our new Professor in that class is Quirines Quirrell. I am also ending the contract of Argus Filch and his replacement is called Arabella Figg, a contact in Surrey."
"Of mine, who is a neighbor of Harry Potter and his maternal family, all muggleborns or halfbloods with Muggleborn or muggle parents. I am making this mandatory, as is the faculty and school staff, you are required to read the Harry Potter books. Before the school term starts, so you have the truth, before the trouble starts during term."
"I know I failed a couple of you over the years and I am fixing those mistakes starting now, as such now everyone, my students. The order and the ministry have combined together to protect our world now in Wizarding Britain. My resident right hand man in school, Severus Snape had spent 18 months trying to protect Harry and his family."
"Until Peter Pettigrew sold them out to Tom Marvolo Riddle, AKA Lord Voldemort." he said and Rita nodded in shock to the news. "So Sirius Black went after him instead of the other way around?!" she said trying to control her voice and he nodded. "Yes and the Marauders created an interesting way to find a animagus in the castle now finally."
"And created a map that never lies, telling us as the school faculty, and staff, and the ministry themselves our escaped criminals are masquarading as animals. Or polyjuicing themselves to be the double of someone in the school we trust. As such, boys I request that you make two more copies of that map and give it to us in year three and four."
"So we can find our spy and before they attack someone, in case our spy here escapes and comes after Harry now. So we're tightening security starting next term and everyone I am making this highly clear, in my students and you as their parents. There is the possibility that Tom is still out there somewhere right now looking for a way to return."
"We got a way to set the trap, but what we need is future recruitment in the order, by setting a trap, now you know my involvement with the alchemist Nicholas Flamel. What is created by him is under high level security at Gringotts and with it. We are setting a trap, both at Gringotts and here at the school that we of every grouping there is now."
"We request permission to set a trap for him, as the auror department, the ministry and school board to protect the children, will you join us in protecting your children. Through out the school year, both next year and year two?!" he asked injecting a firm tone as his eyes showed with a gleam of power I've seen only once in his eyes in my years here.
