Recap: Harry disappeared only to be grabbed and swung around by an ecstatic High Elf who went by the name Kali.
Chapter 19
After Kali put him down and rushed from the room. Harry was greeted by LeCanins whose face told a grim story. He motioned for Harry to follow him. The two went to a side hall where LeCanins started to talk.
"I know where the Auror's were and why they weren't at the battle." Harry stayed quiet. "You're not surprised, I see. According to several of the shadow elves you have spying on the Ministry. It seems that Minister Percival Weasley ordered all Auror's out of the alley, and back to where the new Ministry is. Harry you need to send word to Major Zero. They plan on marching in more than a thousand Red Coats, into the alley. Not only that he has ordered all muggle-born to be rounded up and tried for stealing magic. Not to mention you are a number one target, and are planning on throwing you into Azkaban. Yes they have retaken Azkaban and plan on filing it. Harry if he does do this you realize what is going to happen."
"Anarchy." Harry replied.
"Even the combined Might of the British and American muggle armies couldn't help. What do we do?" LeCanins asked.
"For now nothing we don't even know where the new Ministry is." Harry replied. "But Zero will be notified. And for what Weaselbe is doing is only chance to get all the muggle-born is in there own home, or have them report to an area where they'll be ambushed. But we take Azkaban and use it for our own."
"Are you insane?"
"Would I know if I was?"
"So we just march up to Azkaban and tell them we want it." LeCanins stated.
"Pretty much." Harry noticed LeCanins look. "Look according to the Navy Seals three hundred U.S. Marines are preparing to portkey into Hogsmead Village. If I ask nicely I'm sure I could get more to guard the prison after it's taken."
"You are insane. No wait I know you are. But then again so am I. Were leaders and as such need to be a little touched in the head." LeCanins said.
"That explains Dumbledore now don't it." Harry stated. "Okay I'll go to Zero in the morning and explain the situation to him funny as it may seem this is a good chance to show the old Ministry that were more than meets the eye. But for now see to you're dead." LeCanins nodded and left Harry there in the hallway. Slowly he made his way his room. He pasted Liu and Kali's room and could hear the two talk. It was happy and full of life. He had to smile for his friends happiness. As he approached his room, he could hear a faint conversation.
"All I'm saying Tonks is I want to do this."
"Think about this Hermione were not married yet and you want to give him a child. Yes we gave him our hearts to him then our bodies. My question is why?"
"What happened? I know life is short but when that blade entered my side all I could think about was Harry and the children I could have given him." Harry peered into the room. Hermione was still laying in bed and Tonks was sitting by her side. "I thought I was dead. And all I could think about was how I failed Harry."
"If you really want to do this Hermione I'm not going to stop you but think on it at least. Liu is with a child and is out of the fight for now. She is not going to be back for at least a year or more. Do you want to do that to Harry, be left behind have him worry about you, or you worrying about him as the fight to rages on?" Tonks replied. "I to want to give him children also but not for a while." By now Hermione was in tears. Tonks rapped the young woman into an embrace. Harry walked away from the room. He was walking for an hour when he noticed that both Ted and Dan were keeping up with him.
"What to talk about it?" Ted asked.
"Yeah Harry it looks like you need someone to talk to." Dan replied.
"I don't know where to begin." Harry replied. The two older men just watched the young man in front of them. It was five minutes later when Harry started to talk again. "I heard the last half of a conversation between Tonks and Hermione. Both of you know that Hermione was injured today."
"Yeah I know." Dan replied stiffly.
"Well Hermione wants to fill my deepest desire." Harry said.
"Which would be?" Ted asked.
"A family to call my own." Harry replied.
"But you're not even married. But that isn't what you're worried about is it." Harry could only nod. "Listen Harry Emma and I were twenty when Hermione was born, and not married. We made one mistake in our lives but it was a happy one. Her parents disowned her and Hermione, but my father welcomed us with open arms. So don't worry about what Emma and I will say." Dan said.
"It's not that." Harry said.
"I get it. Because of how you were raised you're afraid your going to be just like your uncle, scared that you will treat your children like dirt, and you won't." Harry stared at Ted. "Just because your worrying about it."
"It's not only that. But I want to be at least married to both of them before considering children." Harry said.
"Then marry both before the end of August." Dan said. "Just think of those promise rings as engagement rings." Harry nodded and looked up to the room where Tonks and Hermione were.
"Just ask them, and I'm sure you'll be in for a surprise." Ted said. The two men watched Harry walk away without a word to the two. They looked at each other and smiled.
"Well Ted welcome to the family."
"You too Dan." They walked off to find their significant other.
Harry ran strait to his room and paused outside the room. Gathering his courage he entered the room. Hermione was in bed asleep as he thought she would be. But he could hear the shower running. Smiling to himself, he walked over to the door. Knocking on the door and entered. Tonks was standing under the spraying water. Harry just stared at the scene in front of him. She looked over at Harry and smiled.
"Care to join me Harry?" She asked.
"If it were any other day, I would." He replied.
"Why not?" She pouted.
"Because I heard your conversation with Hermione earlier." Harry said. Tonks reached down and turned off the water. "So I have a question for you and Hermione. I'll wait outside for you."
Tonks watched him leave the room and close the door. Fear marred her face as she looked at the closed door. Slowly she dressed, with a slight hesitation she opened the door. Hermione was awake and speaking with Harry. She could tell that the two were in deep conversation.
"One moment Hermione." Harry said when he noticed Tonks. "I have a question for the two of you and I need an honest answer." Breathing deeply he looked at the two. "I know of your plan's Hermione and I do want a family."
"Harry?" Tonks asked.
"I love both of you with my heart it may have taken awhile to admit it, but I do." Harry leaned on the wall looking out the window. "But your offers scare me. Wednesday night I was frightened that I going to do something to drive both of you away. Now you Hermione have offered something I have always wanted. A family to call my own. But with Voldemort on the loose I'm scared, and it's not only Voldemort. It's me. I'm afraid that I will become just like Vernon." The two just watched him.
"Harry, your not going to become just like Vernon. Your heart guides you way too much and it's a good thing." Tonks said. "But some of your fears will ease with time. I know I want more just like last night if possible."
"My question for you two is if I were to propose to you this evening."
"Is how soon we want the wedding?" Hermione interrupted. He nodded. "Soon as possible."
"How about before the month is over?" Tonks offered, Hermione nodded.
"Well I don't have your rings. It might be nice to have. Oh hell." He said, and he slid to both his knees. "This may seem fast on my part but I don't care. I love both of you and wouldn't know what I would do if I lost just one of you. So will you both honor my wishes and become my brides?" He was tackled by two flying witches. The way he landed was painful and was cramping his lower legs, as both were shouting yes. Dan walked away from the room and smiled at the other three. Who let out the breath they were holding.
"Well the Potter and Black lines will continue. It's just a matter of when." Andromeda stated.
As Harry was proposing to his loves. A two-man team was crawling up on Malfoy Manor. From what was said at debriefing is that the house was warded six ways from Sunday. There were detection charms and several attacking charms that activated when unwanted persons entered the property. The team set up in a tree line on the south side of the building that over looked study and the entrance to the manor. The Seal brought up his M40 rifle. Looking through the scope he could see movement in the windows but nothing in the yard.
"Third floor. Second window. Right to left." His spotter said.
"Check."
"Range two hundred and forty-three meters. Winds one mile north to south." With several adjustments the shooter was ready. "Command this is Fiend one. Requesting permission to fire. Roger that." The spotter said after a few seconds. "Green light. Take the shot." The sniper eased his finger from the waiting position to the trigger. With slow breaths he calmed himself and looked down the scope. He could see the targets back. From the mirror that hanged over the mantle he could see it was the target. With the slightest pressure the rifle recoiled. The spotter watched as the round left a hole in the window and impacted into the target's head.
"Targets down." With a nod both men vanished from the area. They never heard Narcissa scream of pain. She heard the report and the sudden thump. When she entered, the room blood was pooling around Lucius favorite chair. When she walked to the chair, she could see her Husband lying in his own blood. Eyes still open seeing nothing. Draco ran into the room and skidded to a stop. He stared in shock as his father a man he admired and loathed lied dead. The fire roared to life as a frightened Pansy entered the room. She slid on some blood and into Draco's arms. She started to sob. Both of the Malfoys' got her to calm her down. That's when they learned that her father was killed by an unknown assailant. She remembered hearing a loud pop and glass breaking and watched her fathers head snap back and he just fell, and didn't rise. Both realized that this must be the work of those damnable muggles who are running a muck in Diagon Alley. After what happened today, she was sure of it. Most of the inner circle wasn't allowed to participate, fearing capture, but the French, Bulgarian's and German Death Eaters were expendable. She looked at Draco who nodded and asked the house elves to lock down the house. An hour later near a small village. Twenty soldiers were rushing up the lawn to a safe house that house ten to twelve Death Eaters at one time. Taking no chances, the lead runner fired a grenade from the launcher under neath his weapon. The door exploded inwards and killed one who was leaving. Two paused long enough to throw grenades into the house through the window and opened door. When the team entered the building, they found five dead and one wounded. Who was picked up and lead out of the building. Sweeping clear the building, finding nothing, the group set fire to the building. The team left quickly when the sounds of sirens could be heard approaching them. When the authorities arrived, they found one of the dead Death Eaters on the lawn and the building completely in flames. That was at one location. The next location was far worse the team lost a man while the team at target three sealed the building and set ablaze. They watched as the vampires on the inside pounded on the windows trying to escape the raging fire. The Marines who were watching on the outside just stood there watching the vampires fight amongst themselves. Soon the roof collapsed and all sounds from the building ceased. The one named Ghosted nodded and walked away
"Well boys that's done. How about around on me at the pub and forget this night." The leader stated. A slight cheer went up from both the Royal and U.S. Marines. Who left with the portkey that was provided. When they landed and were debriefed they went to the Leaky Cauldron to get take the Sergeant up on his offer.
Harry appeared in the old Ministry building and walked up to the room where he was told he could find Major Zero. He could hear voices coming from behind the door. The Marines who were posted outside the door saluted Harry and motioned him in. There was a man he never meet yelling at Zero who was taking it with a forced smile.
"There my men Major and I'm in charge of them." He screamed out.
"You left to go to the rear when the ministry was taken and left a good man in charge. It's a wonder the men trust you." Ghost said.
"You will speak to me when I address you and it will be with respect." Came the reply.
"Captain, when you left. Your men were placed under my command and as such I listened to both Lieutenants. Chambers was a good man and his loss is felt by everyone here. I don't give a damn if you think your getting command. I'm the higher-ranking officer, was." When Zero noticed Harry. "Colonel." He said addressing Harry. "As I was saying both countries have agreed that I'm in charge while Colonel Potter here does lighting raids on the terrorist and his forces, and if these documents from the second target prove true then we have a problem."
"Oh and what is that?" The captain replied sarcastically.
"Is that France and several countries have been compromised by the Death Eaters. If this holds true then it's just became very global." Everyone but the captain was shocked.
"Right."
"Now if you don't mind the Colonel and I have to have a chat." Zero said, Ghost recognized the dismissal and left the room. The captain left after glaring at both Zero and Harry. Zero cast several charms on the room.
"Six high priority targets were eliminated. While three safe houses were taken. Lucius Malfoy, A Mr. Parkson, and four French targets, who happen to be on British soil. The first target happened to be outside London and the local authorities were involved after the building was set ablaze, we did get a prisoner out of that one. According to the Times, it was a drug deal gone bad. The other two were out in the country side. The second target had four prisoners who are resting comfortably in the Medical wing in the building, in which these documents were found and that building set on fire. The third no shots were fired instead. The building was sealed and also set on fire but with vampires inside it. The Marines watched it to make sure nothing left. That's all." Zero said, after awhile, Harry just nodded his head. "So what can, I do for you this day sir."
"I need you to file these papers and let them be lost in the system until the thirty first of August." Harry said.
"Sir."
"I getting Married Zero and I need these papers filed and then lost only to turn up on the thirty first." Harry replied, Zero just nodded, and took the papers. "Well that's all Major I'll see you September the first." When Harry left Zero, his aid rushed into the room with the Daily Prophet. Zero looked at it and his face went white.
Muggles kill Pure-Bloods.
In a day time raid the forces of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named attacked Diagon Alley. The forces that were stationed there attacked the group before the death eaters could do anything. In the resulting fight ninety of the Death Eaters and killed twenty civilians. Wounding more than forty more. Acting Minister Weasley had this to say. 'The actions of the Muggles in the Alley have prompted my to bring forth a registry for all muggle-born and half-bloods. If you don't register then you will not be able to attend Hogwarts. Those who do register will only be allowed to take certain classes. If you want someone to blame then blame the Muggles in the alley and Harry Potter who started this mess in the fist place. With his pity me attitude, and having to be in the spotlight. We are still seeking to arrest Potter for his atrocious crime on the Pure-Blood earlier this month. We don't care if he is protected by an army they will not stop us from getting Potter and putting him in his place. I can assure you he will be placed in Azkaban until this war is over. Yes we have retaken Azkaban and have place a heavy guard and new wards around the prison. Good-day.' If what the Acting Minister has said then Mr. Potter has turned on us and will need to be arrested. As for the Muggles in the Alley they will feel the weight of the Red Coats an elite division of the Auror's and Hit-wizards. Who will take and hold the alley. In which the ministry will deal with the Death Eaters the way it should be with trials. Citizens are encouraged to stay out of the alley for the next two days.
Zero was interpreted by automatic gun fire then nothing. He looked up to his aid and at Ghost who just entered the room.
"We were attacked again. No dead, six injured. Every one of the attacking force is dead. They portkeyed right into the Atrium and right into the M249 Squad Automatic Rifles the Yanks setup before yesterday's action. We're searching the bodies for Intel, and we're going to send a message to the old Minister and his ways." Ghost said.
"Six wounded?" Zero asked he knew where the weapons were placed and knew that the six couldn't have been injured from that.
"Fell down the stairs. Shell casings I've already ordered the weapon remove too at least afoot down the rail." Ghost replied.
"This message I want it to say. Be creative Ghost. I don't care." Zero said, Ghost nodded his head and left. Percy was waiting for his force the only attacking force he had to return. As the minutes ticked away a slight pop sounded and he was startled to see his force decimated. Pined neatly to the shirt of one was a white letter. Slowly he opened the letter there was a flash followed by a bang. When the smoke cleared he was covered head to toe in coal dust. His hair was blown back. He looked at Kingsley and said. "Boom." Then passed out.
A/N: OKAY I'LL BE HONEST WITH YOU THIS ISN'T MY BEST WORK IN MY MIND AND MIGHT REWRITE IT. THAT'S IF THERE ARE A LOT OF NEGATIVE REVIEWS. SO BE OPENLY HONEST ON THIS ONE LOVE IT HATE IT TELL ME. PLEASE!!
