Author's note: This is the chapter where you find out what happened and if Pansy was really the one responsible. Thanks to all reviewers for their feedback it's much appreciated. I think this chapter is bad tell me what you think.
Harry went back to his office and informed his boss, O'reilly about the developments in the case. From what it looked like Gadanski was there guy, he had the resources and motive to have Blaise Zabani and Seamus Finnigan killed. Still Harry yet did not have all the pieces together, he was heavily relying on Goyle's testimony which if Gadanski hired a good lawyer could be shred to pieces, physical evidence was also a problem with only Blaise Zabani's wand tying the two murders together. Other things didn't add up also, such as why Seamus Finnigan. Sure Blaise Zabani he was a coconspirator with Pansy but why kill Seamus. Maybe to frame Pansy for the murder after all both were associated with her and whoever killed Seamus must have been shagging him since he was found dead naked. Some of this didn't make sense and Harry was going to get to the bottom of it. He plugged in his conceeled microphone and had two civilian police cars there incase Gadanski tried to flee or do something even more stupid. That's when his partner Neville came to the scene. Harry had informed Neville about his suspicions. Neville agreed Gadanski had just become there number one suspect.
Harry with Neville made his way to the intercom.
Bzzz
'Yes, the Gadanski residence how may I help you' said the butler in a posh accent.
'Were here to talk to Mark Gadanski' Said Harry.
'Sorry, but Mr Gadanski is sleeping right now, If you want I can take a message' The butler replied
'Were the police' Neville said
There was a silence on the other side, when the butler replied 'I'll wake him up detective…'
'Potter and Longbottom.' Harry said
The butler was gone for about 5 minutes before another buzzer rang and the door to the estate was opened, Harry and Neville walked toward the front door. Harry was perhaps 5 feet away from the door when it opened revealing Mark Gadanski in a rich red robe.
'You must be Harry Potter I recognize the scar' Mark said pointing to Harry's temple 'Ginny has told me so much about you, come in'
'I'm sorry to wake you up at such an hour, but it's important' Harry said with a un-genuine sincerity in his voice.
Mark however did not notice but warmly replied 'Don't worry Mr Potter, a friend of Ginny's is a friend of mine, so what brings you over'
'Well Mr Gadanski, as you might of heard Blaise Zabani was murdered a few days ago' Said Neville watching for Gadanski's reaction.
'Yes unfortunate incident isn't it, he was a friend of mine' Replied Mark.
'Well we have reason to believe that Blaise Zabani's murder maybe linked to Seamus Finnigans murder' said Harry seriously.
'How odd' Said Mark intrigued.
'Yes, and we have testimonial evidence that links you to the murders' Neville continued.
'That's proposterous' Mark said genuinely offended.
'Well a lady by the name of Miss Parkinson, claims you and Zabani were not friends due to bad business dealings, infact she claims he almost took your company from you' Harry said.
'A lady? Miss Parkinson is a total bitch, but yes he did try and take my company, but he didn't succeed and I've had dealings with his family for years, so yes I was upset but not enough to kill him' Mark said angrily. Harry began to see that first impressions weren't accurate in this case as Mark became extremely arrogant and annoying. What Ginny saw in him puzzled Harry.
'What about Parkinson, what are your feelings towards her' Neville asked.
'I hate that bitch, she almost cost me all I worked for, if I was going to kill anyone it'd be her.' Mark replied.
'Maybe even frame her?' Harry questioned, Neville gave him a look.
'You think I killed Zabani and Finnigan Potter just to fram her' Mark said
'Possibly' Harry said emotionlessly as if it was a completely logical conclusion.
'Your insane… I' Mark began as he was interrupted by Ginny Weasly. Wrapped up in a robe and standing at the bottom of the stair case.
'You killed Seamus' Ginny began 'you killed him you bastard'
That's when Ginny took out her wand. She cast a spell and a beam of purple light went towards her husband. Neville shoved Mark aside and the spell got Marks arm severing it.
Harry ran towards Ginny and disarmed her. Mark due to the shock of having his armed severed went into a comma and all that could be heard were police storming the house, the sound of the ambulance and the baby crying in the nursery.
It had been hours, since the arrest of attempted murderer Ginny Weasley. Marks condition had stabilized and he was in hospital, still unconscious. Ginny was now in interrogation room 2 being interrogated by Harry.
'Interview commencing 4:53 am' Said Harry.
'Miss Gadanski why did you try and Kill your husband?' Harry asked formally, the feeling he once held for the girl had obviously fade.
'He killed Seamus' Ginny replied.
'That's not 100 certain, we were there to interview your husband when while he was in mid-sentence you fired a charm at him which lead to him loosing an arm' Neville said.
'I loved Seamus we were having an affair and Mark found out, he was so mad , I thought we got over it but Mark obviously didn't… so he killed him' Ginny said beginning to cry.
'Stop the tape' Harry said.
'What are you doing' Neville asked shocked.
'That's what you ment isn't it Ginny, when we were having dinner'
'Yes, Harry love really doesn't run smooth' Ginny whispered.
There was a silence, before O'reilly burst through the door. Potter you have a visitor.
Harry excited the interrogation room into a hallway, there stood Pansy.
'O'reilly told me about Gadanski' Pansy said emotionlessly.
'Yes'
'The crazy redhead' Pansy said .
'What??' Harry asked tired form the long night.
'Remember how I said that a psycho redhead was dating Seamus before me' Pansy said
'Yeah' Harry replied 'but what does that have to do with Ginny?'
'Well it's probably her, isn't it? Think about it she's a redhead and dated Seamus'
'So there are a lot of redheads' Harry began.
'Yeah but how many have dated Seamus and have a husband involved in his murder'
'What are you trying to say?' Harry said angrily.
'Well she was dating Seamus, she loved him, he dumped her for me so she tried getting her revenge. So knowing about Blaise and my plot against her husband she went about to kill Seamus and frame me for the murder. So she went to Blaise after our dinner, he wouldn't of seen her coming and she killed him and took his wand. She turned up to Seamus's door for one last fling, that's when she killed him with a hundred crucios. That in itself suggests there was a whole pile of rage in her. She then left, I obviously becoming the prime suspect. After I got cleared she needed another plan, so she decided to frame her abusive husband. She used her home phone number to call Goyle and threw a horse head into his house. Goyle because he was stupid never questioned it. Goyle failed and she obviously was watching us, so she had to get rid of Goyle and make it look like Gadanski killed him. So she stabbed him on the street. She went home thinking Goyle had died and couldn't give evidence; of course Goyle didn't die, but claimed a female stabbed him. So you turn up to Gadanski's and when he was about to clear his name Ginny Weasley tried to shut him up. True, she would be committing murder, but she could have easily got a psychologist to say she was being abused for so long by her husband she just snapped.' Pansy said.
Harry just stared at her.
'I know you like solving puzzles Harry, but I couldn't resist' Pansy said smiling, as she turned around and began walking to the exit.
'By the way you can receive all the credit, I wont tell a soul' she then winked and left.
The end.
Author conclusion: Well I hoped you like the story. I kind of got bored after a while. But hopefully I explained the ending well enough. Please give reviews, I know this isn't the best conclusion or chapter but I took some time doing it. As you can tell Pansy became a protagonist instead of an antagonist a little twist. Thanks to everyone for reading my story.
