Saved By An Act Of Betrayal By Keeperoliver Chapter 13

Disclaimer: It's amazing how one person can set to work over 9,000,000 imaginations, but I guess if any one could, it would be J.K. Rowling.

When Harry finally got his mother, father and godfather revived, he told them all about Dobby. Lily was crying so bad, that James had to sit her on his lap to control her. Harry then asked if they wanted to hear Dobby's side of the story. They all said yes, even Sirius.

So Harry looked to Dobby and had him take over.

"Before I start, I want you to know, that what I said before, I mean it, I really do love this family. If you don't mind, I would like to start where I first heard of Harry. I was a house-elf for the Malfoy Family, and was privy to some very nasty conversations. On this one occasion my master was talking to Master Nott about how a baby had defeated their master. This after he had slain both his father and mother. Master Malfoy was beside himself in anger. He could not believe that he had been a follower of a creature that would allow himself to die at the hands of a meer infant. It

was an insult that would destroy all he had planned for. It now became necessary for him to spend an inordinant amount of galleons to keep himself out of jail. And then he had to spend more to put himself back into a position of authority, all because of this infant. Harry Potter."

"It was many years before I heard my master mention Harry's name again. He had learned that the ministry was closing in on known supporters of Voldemort, and searching their house for objects that reeked of dark magic. Master had hundreds of such objects hidden throughout the mansion, and had to be rid of them in short order. He had taken the majority of his objects to Knockturn alley. Borgin and Burkes was the main place he took them, but they could only purchase so many, without throwing suspicion on themselves while going broke, buying all the items master had brought to them. It was one day when he came holding a diary that he could not get rid of, that he thought of a plan. He knew what the diary was, because the lord had told him to guard it with his life, as it was very important to him. Master thought since the dark lord was gone, the diary was no longer of any use to him, so he would dump on an unsuspecting student and be rid of it for ever, plus if the fool student decided to use the foul diary, it would possess the fool, and reopen the Chamber of Secrets and unleashing what ever creature it held, destroying all the Half-bloods and mudbloods. I could not let the person that stopped the harming of many elves by destroying the Dark Lord. He was the savior of the future of the house-elves. I would not let him die, even if I had to hurt him severly."

"Harry turned out to be the most persistant human I ever met. No matter how I tried to get him to forget Hogwarts, he continued on, finally defeating the creature, and the spirit residing in the book.

Not only did he do this, he also managed to free me from my master. From there, I promised to myself, that I would do anything in my power to aid him in anyway I could."

Before Dobby could continue, George came up to Ginny, and told her that Fred was released from St. Mungo's, and was on his way to Hogwarts. Harry looked at Ginny and asked her why Fred was in St. Mungo's. She told him for Fred losing his left hand during the final battle, and how George had put it in his pocket with a preserving spell on it, in case they were able to reattach it. They were about to learn if it was successful.

There was a large crowd of students and adults surrounding the stair case that led to the headmistresses office, when the statue of the gargoyle moved and Fred walked out. From where they were sitting, they could not see Fred's left arm, but from the reaction of the people, it did not sound good. They kept hearing things like sorry, or it could have been worse. Fred stopped by his mother and father, and gave them a hug and his mother a kiss, and said he was going to find George. He continued to walk to the end of the tables where Harry and his family sat. George was also standing there with them. George looked at the empty sleeve of Freds robes. There was a tear in his eye, when he went over to hug Fred. Fred put his arms around George and patted him on the back, with both hands. George did not notice this, and continued to tell Fred, that they would find some way to correct this. George heard snickering going on around him, and asked what was so funny? Was this the first handicapped person they ever saw. Fred was standing to the right of George, and put his left hand on his shoulder and said come on. George was still oblivious to what Fred was doing. Finally Fred just broke down laughing, and the whole hall joined him. George turned to Fred and asked what was he laughing at. Fred used his left hand and flicked him in nose. George picked him up, threw him over his shoulder and put him down in a large bowl of pudding. Luna looked up and yelled at George, "I was going to eat that." Fred got up. and walked over to her, turned around and presented his posterior to her, and said enjoy. She returned, "No thanks, I prefer mine in a bowl, not a la mode." the hall was in stitches for about 5 minutes.

James then asked where they were going to stay for the night, because it had been a long day. Harry looked up at the Professor's table to find Professor McMonagall. She was sitting in the Headmistress chair, so walked up to her and asked about sleeping arrangements. She looked at the crowd of people in the hall, and said there wasn't enough room in the castle for all these people. Molly, who had heard this said, "Harry dear, there is more than enough room at the Burrow for you."

"Mrs. Weasley, do you have enough room for ten of us plus your family?"

"I thought it was just you, your family, and Hermione?"

"That's what I am talking about, Mrs. Weasley. There's mom, dad, Sirius, Remus, Tonks Teddy, Dobby, Luna, Hermione and I."

"Oh dear I am sorry."

"It's alright Mrs Weasley. It's going to be hard for everybody to get used to."

Harry then called for Kreacher.

"Yous called Master Harry sir, for Kreacher. Hows may I help you, sir?'

"Kreacher, what shape is Black Manor in?"

"Harry Potter Sir, Kreacher has kept the house clean sir, for your return."

"Thank you, Kreacher, you're a life saver."

"Mrs. Weasley, I am sure there is enough room at Grimmauld Place, if you wish to stay with us tonight?"

"Thank you, but no Harry, I believe I just want to go home with my family, and rest for the evening."

"Is it alright if Ginny stays the night with us, as we have an appointment with Ragnok tomorrow, and I believe he wants us all there?"

"That's fine Harry, just let me say goodby, before I leave."

Well the Weasleys were saying their goodbyes Harry asked Minerva if they could use the flew to go home, and she said it was quite alright.

They finally made it to Sirius' home and sat around and talked for awhile, and Dobby got to finish his story, before they all went to bed. Harry, Ron and Dobby stayed in their old room, Ginny, Hermione, and Luna stayed in their old room, and Sirius found rooms for everyone else.

James ans Lily talked for awhile, before Lily pushed up against James looking at him with her emerald eyes, kissing him at first gently, and then getting more passionate, until finally it was

demanding. James didn't need many hints to know what was on Lily's mind, and he was only too happy to fulfill her wishes, and for the next 90 minutes that's what he did. And when he finally completed his mission, there was a glow around them that lit up the room, they were just not noticing it at the moment.

In Harry, Ron and Dobby's room, Harry and Dobby sat up in their bed suddenly. "Dobby, did you feel that too?"

"Ya Harry, what the heck was it. It felt like, I don't know. everything was right in the world."

"I know Dobby, it sort felt like that to me too, only more than that. It felt like there was new life to the world, or a new life in the world, if that makes any sense."

In Ginny and Hermione's room, Both Ginny and Hermione sat up and stared at each other."Hermione, did you feel that too?"

"Yes Ginny, I did, and it was the most wonderful feeling in the world. What did you feel?"

"Same thing I think, sort of like none of what took place a week ago never happened."

Luna then sat up, looked at Ginny and Hermione, smiled really bright and said," Isn't it wonderfful. Lily and James are going to have a baby."

'WHAT!"

"Oh yes, quite, a girl I imagine, with Lily's hair and James' eyes. I'm so excited for them."

"Luna what are you on about, they can't be having a baby, they just back from the dead."

"What better way to celebrate coming back from the dead then by giving life."

"Hermione, what do you think?"

"If you felt the same thing I did, then,I agree with Luna, The Potter family is going to grow in the next nine months."

"You know, if it's true, we may be the only ones to know it for about three months."

"Wicked, do you know how much fun we could have with that?"

"Yes I do, and I intend to enjoy every minute of it."

"Well we better get some sleep, as I think tomorrow may be a long day also.
Goodnight, Ginny, goodnight Luna." They all said their goodnights, and were soon asleep.

Tha next morning everyone was up by seven, showered, and headed down for breakfast.

Kreacher was making breakfast when Sirius walked in, Kreacher saw him and growled, "Master

Sirius, I sees you is back."

"Goodmorning to you too Kreacher, I see you are still your same charming self."

Harry stopped Sirius from going on,"Sirius, you have to forget your old feelings about Kreacher,

He is not the same elf as when you left. He helped Ron, Hermione and I so much, we can't thank him enough, and we have become very close, haven't we Kreacher?"

"Yes Master Harry. we has, and Is just wants to say, Is is happys to serve you, sir."

"Thank you Kreacher."

"This is going to be hard getting used to. Kreacher, I am sorry for the way I treated you in the past, and hope you can forgive me."

"Is will try, Master Sirius sir, Is will try."

Then James, Lily, Hermione, Ginny, Luna and Dobby walked in.

Kreacher saw Dobby and started cying, ran over to Dobby and bending over started touching his forehead to Dobby's feet. "I cants believe yous has come. Wes had waited so longs for you to come save us, and now yous is here. Kreacher is so happy." And for the first time that Sirius could remember, he saw Kreacher dancing through the kitchen.

Dobby looked at everyone in the room and asked, "What was that all about?"

"I don't know, but maybe you should tell him who you are?"

Kreacher put all the food on the table, all the time humming to himself. Harry asked him to join them at the table and eat. The tears in Kreacher's eyes were building up for a flood. He had been asked to sit at the table and eat with the family. He reached out and took one piece of bacon, one egg, and one piece of toast. Harry asked if that was all he wanted, and Kreacher said yes.

Dobby then asked Kreacher if he knew who he was, and Kreacher said yes. This threw Dobby for a minute and asked if he was sure. Again Kreacher said yes. Finally Dobby said, "Kreacher, Who am I?"

"Yous is our king"

"What! What do you mean I am your king, Kreacher I'm Dobby, ex house-elf. Remember?"

"Oh no sire yous is King Eldonrod, King of all elves."

"Kreacher, that was just a myth, a fairy tale told to our young to keep their spirits up, and to give them hope, a false hope at that."

"No it is true and yous is the proof."

"How can you say that Kreacher, that story has been told for generations."

"Ifs Kreacher cans prove this tos yous will yous believe me then?"

"How can you prove this?

"Altus, please come here."

There was a slight noise, then standing before Kreacher was an elf that looked older than Kreacher. "Whats can I dos for Kreacher?"

"Altus, do yous believes in the tale of Eldonrod, or do yous thinks it a fairy tale?"

"Of course it is trues, what else have we elves gots to believes in if it wasn't."

"Then would yous please looks at this young one and tells me whos he is?"

Altus turned and faced Dobby. As soon as he saw him, he dropped to his knees and bowed down to him. "It is true Kreacher, yous has found him, yous has found King Eldonrod, we is saved."

Harry stepped forward and asked. "Altus, can you come with us to Gringotts, this is all very confusing, and I believe that Ragnok may be able to help straighten this out?"

"Altus woulds be honored to comes with King Eldonrod, would Kreacher also be able to come, to bear witness tos this event?"

"That will be fine."

Ron asked Harry if he should go home due to the amount of people that were now going?

Harry said, "If you want to Ron, but I would like it if you came with us, as family support for Ginny,

in case it is necessary."

Ron said ok, and they all flewed to Gringotts.

The first goblin the group saw was Griphook.

Harry walked over to him and gave him a hug. "Griphook, my friend, it's good to see you."

"It is good to see you too Harry Potter, and Miss Granger and Mr. Weasley. Please come this way,

Director Ragnok is waiting for you in his office."

Griphook led them too Ragnok's office and knocked on his door. When they heard enter, Griphook opened the door to let them in, but asked Harry to stay back for a minute. As the others entered the office. Griphook looked at Harry and said, "Harry, I want to thank you for all that you have done for the Goblin nation, and for me. You gave us our pride back and our association with the wizarding world. I don't know if you know it or not, but your minister has put the goblins back in charge of Azkaban Prison."

"No, I didn't know about that, but I have been out of touch with everything going on the last three days, but I am happy to hear that."

"Thank you again my friend." They shook hands and Harry went into the room.

"Ah Harry it is good to see that you are doing better. Please sit down, so that we can get this started."

"As you know, it now senseless to talk about the wills of James and Lily Potter and Sirius Black, and I am pleased to have to say that. Now, since that Altus is here, I assume you know about Dobby, or should I say King Eldonrod. I could not say anything earlier, because you had to be accepted by the house-elves, before I could make any proclamations. Since they have accepted you as their king, I need one more person here to make it official." As he finished this, a knock on the door drew their attention. When opened, in walked Minister Shacklebolt.

Kingsley wrapped his arms around Lily and gave her a hug she would never forget, and then he did the same to James and Sirius.

"Director Ragnok, I came as soon as I was notified of your request."

"Thank you Minister."

"Now that you are here, I can make this proclamation, so that the Ministry of Magic can take note and move accordingly. It is with great honor that I proclaim that Dobby Woodelf Potter to be here by Proclaimed as Eldonrod, King of all elfs, and to honor all claims that go with it. Do you Dobby accept this title, and all the responsibilities that come with it?"

"I, Dobby Woodelf Potter, now Eldonrod, do accept this title and all the responsibilities that go with it, so mote it be."

"Dobby their must be a crowning ceremony conducted to make this official, and it must be done within thirty days from today. If you wish we can make all the arrangements and notifications for the event. And one more thing which you may not want to hear, there must be a queen when you are crowned."

"Then I decline this title, as there is no way I will be forced to marry an elf I don't know, and don't really care to know. I have met my mate, and will not give her up for this. I am sorry, but that is the way it has to be."

"Dobby, no one said it had to be an elf, it can be anyone you choose."

"Luna love, I know that we have only known each other for a short time, and will understand completely, if you say no, but will you marry me?"

The whole room was full of tears, and watched as Luna, who was crying herself, stood there and looked at Dobby. "Dobby, as much as I love you, are you sure that you want me to be your queen? Kreacher, Altus, how do you feel about this, would you be able to be subject to a witch as your queen?"

"If the King is happys, then we is happys, and will honors yous as ours queen."

"Luna my love, I would have eventually asked you to marry me, because the first time I saw you, I knew we were meant to be. Please do me the honor of being my wife."

That was all it took for Luna, she launched herself at Dobby, started kissing him soundly, pulled back and said for everyone to hear, "Yes my sweet Dobby I will marry you."

Harry grabbed both Luna and Dobby in a hug, and danced them around the floor. The rest showed them how happy they were, and everything started to settle down.

Then Ragnok caught there attention again, and said to Harry, "Now we should talk about the estates of the four founders, that are now entitled to you. When the sword, and the cup answered to your call, it was accepting you as the rightful heir to all four names. Now the Potter name is one of the oldest names to the wizarding world. It goes back, three hundred generations, and with it the title of lord. James, you chose not to use the title for personal reasons. That was your choice and you should you chose to claim it now, it can be done, if not, then the title will go to Harry.

But I must let you know, that even with James taking the title of lord, you would still have the title of lord, twice over, which is not permitted in the Wizengamot. You would have to use a proxy with full entitlements for this proxy to work. In a sense, this proxy would be taking the title of which ever lord you choose not to take. However the true title would still belong to you. The proxy could only use it within the Wizengamot. Do you understand what I am saying?"

"Now, before you make a decision, you must chose wisely, as this person will be representing you as your proxy, but if he should be found failing his duties, or is corrupt, then not only will he be found guilty, but so will you. Please think this over and let me know what your decision next week some time. Now for your estates. there four vaults and two properties, The Lions Den and Emerald Manor. The location for these are locked in the vault, other than that, no one knows where they are. As for the holdings in your vaults, Gryffindor has 750,000,000 galleons in it, and interest is 1,000,000 galleons a day, Slytherin has 1,000,000,000 galleons, and draws 2,000,000 a day, Ravenclaw has 150,000,000 galleons and draws 350,000 a day, Hufflepuff has 30,000,000 galleons, and draws 75,000 a day. Totaled, it amounts to almost 2,000,000,000 galleons. Making you the richest wizard in the world."

"UHHHHHH, geez, is all this true?"

"Yes it is Harry."

MEDIC WE HAVE ONE DOWN, BUT NO NEED TO FEAR, THE NURSES SEEM TO BE PERFORMING MOUTH TO MOUTH. HEY WHAT'S WITH THE TOUNGE.
