Chapter 4-Meeting the Parents, sort of
Exiting for the rainbow of colors, Harry and John landed ninja like at the steps of the entrance hall of a large manor, which was decorated with: Animated animal print wallpaper, glowing crystal torch sconces, several wall mounted weapon racks and various dark wood tables, most of with were sporting a fern or large bonsai. As the Potter got to their feet, their trunks had thudded to the ground, causing an awful racket and summoned some investigators.
These investigators were: small creatures with bat like ears and wearing various states of tattered linen, as the creatures looked around, they saw the Potters and one demanded, "Who are you and how did get here?" in a squeaky male voice, though feeling a connection to them that it he could not explain. Hearing the demands, Harry answers, "I am Harry Potter, this is my brother John Potter and we got here via this portkey," as he showed the rustic shaped key and wait happened next was weird.
After hours of conversation later, Harry and John were well and truly tired now, so with a quick direction from the creatures, that introduced themselves as: House Elves, a species of magical butlers who survive by bonding to a wizarding family, they were shown to their rooms and hit the land of nod. Meanwhile in the Ministry of Magic, Amelia Bones was putting the finishing touches on to the evidence, for Sirius Black long awaited trial and checked it over to ensure there were no loop holes, ready for the next meeting of the Wizengamot.
In the castle-school of Hogwarts, the Headmaster was going threw the registrar marking off who was attending and who was not attending, looking for the perfect candidate to befriend the Potter and spy on them for him. As he read the students profile, 1 name stood out from the rest: Ronald Weasley, the 6th child in a family of seven and person after his own heart: greedy, easily prone to jealousy and power hungry, but before you ask, 'How does Dumbledore get that from a profile? Haven't got a clue, but he does so run with it.' Now with his choice made, Dumbledore begins to plan a way of secretly meeting with Ron Weasley.
The next morning, the Potters awake to breakfast in bed, served by the House Elves known as: Pinky and Perky, after they enjoyed their breakfast, the Potters then got ready for their days work at the Hospital, though their shift does not start until the afternoon, this left them time to explore. Roaming around the mansion, the Potters found several interesting rooms like: a Potions Lab, dueling chambers and a library, but what really caught their attention was: a large hall filled with Portraits of people that looked like them, with a red haired woman standing at their sides. Then without warning, the painting close to them spoke up, "Harry?" in a tearfully female voice, that was followed by a male voice asking, "Who are you?" which was directed to John more than Harry.
The Potters turned towards the voice and Harry became emotional as he saw a familiar pair of emerald green eyes looking at them from besides a hazel eyed version of himself and said, "Mum, Dad?" with tears, Harry's question was answered with a nod from his mother, but his father was still being hostel towards John, so Harry explained who he was and the confrontating look on his fathers face turned to awe, as he took in the story and once finished, John was accepted by: James Potter and Lily Potter. After being accepted, Harry and John continued their story and explained how Harry was dumped at the Dursleys, their death and the new strain of the Gamer Virus had swept threw London, all threw out James and Lily listened in awe, though Lily also had a grimace not wanting Harry or John to fight in such conditions, though they weren't the only ones as the others paintings had came alive and heard the story.
By the end of the story, the Potter Boys got around of applause and cheers (cheers mainly from the men), before they got down to talking about random things like: their family's school years, jobs, the war with Voldemort and finally where their grave markers were. Hours of talking went by, before a house elf came and informed the Potters of Lunch being ready, so with that the elf then led the way to the dinner room, where a large spread of food was out and after taking their seats, the boys dug in, while the painted Potter family (who moved to a larger linked picture frame) watched in amusement as the boys politely went to town on their lunch, eating as much as they could handle.
After lunch it was time for their shifts to start, so with a good bye to the family, Harry and John dissolved into particles of data, before the particles reassembled them at the Hospital. As the Potters worked, Amelia had just finished handing out her report on Sirius Black, to the seated members of the Wizengamot court (Bar Dumbledore whose status as Chief wizard means that he has to be remained unaware until the time was right) ready for them to read before the meeting at 10:00 pm that night.
The Potters shift finished at 9:00 pm and was now at home, changing from their work clothes to their formal robes, before having dinner and waiting for the arrival of Amelia to escort them to the court rooms. Amelia appeared in a flash of green fire from the fireplace in the sitting room, greeting her formally the Potters and Amelia then set to work in moving the boys to Ministry.
In the office of the Head of Law Enforcement, 3 people exited gracefully out of the fireplace and when they stood up, it was shown that they were: Harry James Potter, John Charlus Potter and Amelia Susan Bones, and from the Office, Amelia escorted the boys to the courtrooms on the sub-basement floors. In the courtroom, Harry and John were directed to sit in the visitors/witness section, due to being not old enough regardless of their status as emancipated wizards.
10 to 10 at night and the courtroom, began filling up with the many heads of house, while they were filing in they took note of and ignored the presents of: Harry and John. Once the court was all seated, Chief Wizard Dumbledore took his seat and got the shock of his life, not realizing that there were to people in the witness box and then he almost had a heart attack when he saw the emerald greens of one of the 2 boys, signifying that the boys were Harry and John Potter. Dumbledore was thinking of why Harry was here when he was not meant to know of the wizarding world yet, when the Head of Law Enforcement: Madam Amelia Susan Bones stood up and addressed, "Lords and Ladies of the Wizengamot, I have discovered an important piece of injustice yesterday, evidence of this injustice was found in the recently unsealed Last Will and Testament of James and Lily Potter, which as member of law enforcement, I had to investigate," to the crowd, as Dumbledore knowing where this is going: Paled greatly, as he remembers the ashy remains of his seal monitor, but was unnoticed by the others as they try to make sense of what Amelia was saying, when Amelia then forged on stating, "The Will of the Potters, stated that Peter Pettigrew was the secret keeper of the Potters location and he was the one to betray them, not Sirius Black like: Chief Wizard Dumbledore had us believe," while now staring at the ghostly face of Dumbledore, along with the rest of the court (bar a few dark wizards and those who will benefit from Blacks incarceration).
With Dumbledores face a ghost white, Amelia continued on with the her address, showing her memory of her interview with Sirius Black and the memory of that day when Sirius confronted Peter Pettigrew, showing that Pettigrew had been the one to blow up the street and murdered those muggles, before calling out, "Do the Wizengamot find Sirius Orion Black guilty of being a Death Eater?" which was responded with a vote of: No, before Amelia then asked, "Do the Wizengamot find Sirius Orion Black guilty of the murder of Peter Pettigrew?" which was also a no vote and finally she asks, "Do the Wizengamot find Sirius Orion Black guilty of felony murder of: James and Lily Potter?" this time the answer was still no, but their were a few including Dumbledore who voted: Yes (mainly due to his plans for Harry).
With the majority vote of innocence, Dumbledore was force to rule the charge as such and free Sirius Black from his imprisonment, as well as the authorization of: 100,000,000 Galleons to be paid out of his own account as compensation, as the instigator of the injustice. With the injustice rectified, the Wizengamot then welcomed the newly freed Sirius Black back into the court and his family seat, removing the honorary user: Delores Jane Umbridge, who had not gone quietly at all, and threaten to report their injustice to the Minister, but the minister could only attend emergency called meetings, as it could concern the Minister and therefore the threat is mute.
When Sirius was back in his seat, Amelia yet again took a stand, with a now transparent Dumbledore swearing, 'Fucking hell! What is it now?' under his breath, then he cursed again as she spoke, "Lords and Ladies of Wizengamot, due to the rights of emancipation, we are also welcoming back the seat of Lord Potter, which will be a shared responsibility of Lord Harry James Potter and his twin Brother Lord John Charlus Potter," causing those who new Lily to only have one child to snap their heads to where: Harry and John sat, before they moved to the center of the room and swore a magical oath, " We the Lords of Potter, pledge our voice of: Courage, our words of: Power and our belief of: Justice, to honoring the world of: magic and muggle, lead it's people threw any dark times," together, as wind and magic spiraled around the duo, sealing their agreement to their magic.
1 hour later, with the oath made, Harry and John made their way to their seats and allowed the meeting to continue on.
