Chapter 18

It was a few hours later. The ministry of magic officials and the entire wizengamot were starting to arrive via floo. Neville Luna and George couldn't help but cringe as the former head of Hogwarts and all around masochistic bitch that was Dolres Jane Umbridge walked in. Neville went over to George

"How is she still on the wizengamot?" he asked disgusted

"Remember how the greatest defence to doing Voldy's work was to claim you were under the imperious? Well if you have enough power and pull over ministry officials scum bags like her manage to have that defence accepted" George said

Neville couldn't believe that even with the downfall of Voldemort the ministry was still housed corrupted officials. That would be something he would pitch to Harry and Hermione to change

45 Minutes later the ceremony was ready to begin. Kingsley Shacklebolt stood at the front to begin the proceedings.

"On this day the 26th December 2010 we appoint the champions of light as the new King and Queen of magic. Here on this day a centuries old prophecy is to be fulfilled. Here on this day. We see a new age of glory begin"

At that moment the doors to the hall swung open and Harry and Hermione walked in together hand in hand wearing the royal robes. They headed towards the two thrones which were placed at the end of the room. Harry held the fused elder and phoenix wand whilst Hermione in her other hand held the staff that was given to her through birth right. They stepped up onto the platform and each in front of a respective throne. Kingsley began to speak again

"As Minister for Magic I must asked if there is anyone in this room who is opposed and wishes to challenge the coronation of one Harry James Potter and one Hermione Jean Granger nee Potter"

Harry and Hermione looked at each other and smiled. They were interrupted however by a distinguished attention seeking cough. Both Harry and Hermione's hand where there scars from 5th year lingered twinge at the sight of Dolres Umbridge

"I wish to oppose this coronation on the grounds that Miss Granger is a muggle born and hence forth cannot be allowed to ascend to such a new title" She said stepping out of the seated crown. Harry wanted to tear her throat out but Hermione beat him to a response

"For your information you are only partially correct Dolres. Yes you are correct that I am a muggle born witch however Gringotts bank have carried out extensive heritage test on me and it has been proven and shown that I am the direct descendant to Merlin. As further proof of this I carry the staff of Merlin. Awarded to me through a birth right. You have no power or authority to suggest otherwise" She said. Everyone in the room was smiling but Dolres was spitting nails.

"But you are not pureblood!" She yelled venomously

"Umbridge you will find that I am not a pureblood either are you suggesting that you wish to oppose my ascendance also? Before you answer you should note that I am the direct descendant to King Arthur of the house of Pendragon"

Umbridge was left in shock they had her beat there was no way she could oppose their authority. But even so they were not pureblood it was not acceptable! Feeling like she was doing only what was right for the world she moved closer towards them

"You know I really hate children" She said before pulling her wand and pointing it at the two of them. She sc reamed "CRUCIO!"

Luna didn't think before she jumped in front of Harry and Hermione and took the curse in the chest she fell to the ground writhing in agony. Neville was furious. Before Harry could even raise his wand. Neville wordlessly summoned Umbridge wand into his hand lifting the curse from Luna. Hermione was knelt next to her friend

"George quickly help her!" She yelled. George leapt into action activating the healing wards that he had set up. Neville lifted her into his arms and moved her to where George directed. Harry had secured Umbridge and was holding off to see if Luna was going to be ok

Hermione ran back over to Harry

"She's going to be find the spell didn't do any extensive damage and the wards are repairing any damage that had been done" Hermione said hugging Harry who breathed a sigh of relief. His attention turned to the bound witch

"You have committed an act of treason against me and my wife. By using one of the unforgivable curses against us we have the authority to throw you through the veil of death" Harry spat at her. One glance at Hermione though and he knew that he couldn't do that.

"Luckily for you Umbridge I do not share that passion for justice through the means of death, so instead I hereby strip you of all your ranks that you hold in the ministry and I also sentence you to have your magic stripped from you forcing you live your life as a squib. You will be forced to live as the thing you despise the most" Harry sanctioned. Kingsley ordered her to be taken away and regained order in the hall once again

"Now that the disruption has passed and no one wishes to oppose this ascendance I do hereby proclaim that these two are now and shall be forever known as the king and queen all magic. Rejoice!"

Harry and Hermione sat on the thrones as the hall erupted in cheers. Every person in that room knew that they were going to led the magical world into a new age of prosperity and happiness and now that the last threat had been taken care of all that was left was to fix the broken community. First things first though. Harry and Hermione went back to where Luna was in the healing wards. She was awake and responding well

"Luna why did you do that?" Hermione asked

"You and Harry were my first friends and I promised I would always be there to look out for you so this is just me fulfilling that promise" Luna said smiling

The ward deactivated meaning that Luna was fully recovered. Harry and Hermione embraced her in a bone crushing hug

"Thank you Luna, you truly are a great friend and an even greater person" Harry said smiling at her. After they let go Luna walked over to Neville and embraced him with hugs and kisses

"Never ever scare me like that again Luna I thought history was going to repeat itself" Neville said tears in his eyes

"Don't worry Neville I'm absolutely fine and I'm never going to leave you" She smiled at him

The coronation was finished and after some catching up with Hagrid and making sure everyone was ok and home safely Harry and Hermione went up to bed.

"So that went well" Harry said as he and Hermione both started to laugh
