Thanks to all of you who reivew and help me out with ideas and areas I was struggling with. HPpureblood, Immortal Ice Phoenix and others thank you.

JaylaCaine for awesome beta-ing.

Immortal Ice Phoenix- An internet dessert for you and your idea to have counter charges filed. A variation of it is listed below.

Harry, Luna and Neville sat in silence at the kitchen of Longbottom Manor. Lady Longbottom or Grandmother Augusta as she insisted the children will one day call her had Teddy and Jamie in Neville's old nursery. Teddy who was starting to crawl loved the plush flooring that was easier on his knees that the hardwood floors Harry and Draco had in their home.

Luna was livid. It wasn't often that she showed anger but she couldn't believe Hermione was so selfish. For someone that was so intelligent she acted stupidly. Neville wanted to hex someone or something. Harry was his brother. A threat to Harry was a threat to Neville and Neville didn't take kindly to any kind of threats to his family. At Hogwarts, he never had to prove anything to Harry. It was staunch approval that had Harry earning his loyalty and the relationship that made them brothers. When they had realized that they were brothers under Wizarding Law it was icing on the cake. As godson to Alice Longbottom they would've been raised together had things been different during the war.

"And she threatened you with charges?" Luna asked rhetorically. Harry knew she was just trying to sort out her anger and any friendship Hermione and Luna had been ruined. Harry felt a twinge of guilt. Only a twinge, Hermione had brought this on herself.

"I have some things to take care of; I'll see you both later." And with that Luna left, to where neither Harry nor Neville knew.

Luna was deep in thought as she walked to the Nursery to kiss her god babies. Even in her anger she squealed at that. Before Harry had told her about the mess with Hermione, Neville told Harry the news of their engagement. They were planning a small ceremony for October. So soon, James and Teddy would have cousins to play with, and she couldn't wait to start her family. But for now, she and Neville would lend Harry all the help he could want. Luna knew that if the tables were reversed Harry would do the same.

Luna flooed to the Quibbler office and went to speak with her father. There were a few articles that she wanted to get started on. It was too late to print them for tomorrow's edition but it would be printed the next day. Luna wondered how McGonagall would feel when she started what she hoped would be a series listing the many failures of Hogwarts?

"I thought after the war things would be calmer, but it's one thing after the other." Draco was catching Pansy and Millicent up with the going-ons in his life recently. It was such a convoluted story of neglect, adoption and harassment that neither woman knew what to say.

"Maybe if she was sorted into Hufflepuff, she'd be more loyal." Millicent commented.

"Maybe if she was in Ravenclaw she'd have thought about the consequences of her actions. I don't doubt Potter would carry through on his threat." Pansy added.

"Any Slytherin would've left him alone after he killed the Dark Lord, our self preservation skills run deep." Said Draco.

No one had to note the idiocy of Gryffindors. It went without saying.

"So, you blood adopted two children and we get no invite to a ceremony?" Millicent inquired.

"We haven't had a ceremony yet. It started as a preemptive strike to make sure they couldn't remove Teddy from Harry's custody." Draco defended.

"What we really want to know is what's going on with you and Potter?" Pansy clarified.

"We were co-parents longer than we have been in a relationship. Right now we are seeing where it leads us though we both care about each other." Draco said. To anyone else he might've been snarky, but he knew that if he and Harry continued courting and married his initial response to all his Slytherin compadres would set the tone for how they dealt with Harry. He and Harry had nothing to be ashamed of and he wouldn't let anyone disrespect him.

"As long as I am invited to everything I don't care. Just don't get hurt. I would hate to have to kill the Savior of the Wizarding world. "Millicent said.

Of all the girls in Slytherin, Millicent was Draco's closest friend. She was loyal and sweet and funny and when his father and hers were still disillusion by Voldemort they comforted each other with stories of a world where they didn't have to kill for the sake of killing. Pansy although she knew Draco longer was once jealous of Millicent and had said some nasty things that Pansy thought she was fully forgiven for but Draco knew she wasn't. Therefore some of the juicier things that had happen between Harry and himself he would wait until Millicent and he was alone before he divulged it.

"Back to these charges, they would have to go to the Wizenagamot. Why doesn't Harry take over his seats? He'd have two at the least, the Malfoy one, the Parkinson would vote in your favor if Pansy explained to her family what's going on. Father would surely cast for you when I speak to him. And that's five votes already."Millicent stated.

"I've never heard him speak of his seats, I wonder if he even knows about them. While he knows more of the Wizarding World now more of the old ways are unknown to him. I'll ask him when he gets home. And that's not counting the three seats the Longbottoms hold. As the last of two lines, Lady Longbottom inherited two seats that will pass to Neville Longbottom. Harry is their family."said Draco.

"Then have her explain how to claim his seats on the board of Governors. He has more political power than he realizes." Pansy said.

Narcissa was walking towards Madame Malkins when she heard yelling behind her. Knowing that anyone with a social decorum wouldn't be yelling to gain her attention she refused to turn around. She was about to enter the shop when she felt a hand on her shoulder forcibly turn her around. With an indignant huff that was very un-Malfoy, Narcissa looked up at the person who held her and was surprised to see Molly Weasley looking furiously at her with her wand drawn.

"You, you did this. Harry would've never turned his back on us." Molly yelled. It hadn't missed her attention that Draco was at the engagement party and there had been whispers about Draco and Harry living together.

"Why are you touching me?" Narcissa asked with disdain.

"So, you don't deny it? You turned Harry dark. It's your fault and that bastard son of yours!" Molly was livid and no one knew what was going on but they all knew Lady Malfoy had to have done something to incite the ire of the otherwise peaceful Molly.

"Let everyone know how you turn him against his intended wife. How you convinced him to steal my grandchild. He won't even allow me to see him. He claimed my children took advantage of him now my youngest are facing Azkaban, my older children won't speak to me. You've ruined my family and you used Harry to do it. What do you want? His money? To break his heart and laugh while he hurts? You disgusting excuses for wizards don't deserve to live." Molly said.

"Why don't you tell the World how your daughter lied and that's why she's facing Azkaban? That Harry is gay and never wanted her. That you aren't fit to be around children and that's why Harry refused to have you around his children. Tell the Wizarding world how you the Molly Weasley they adore scorned the savior of the Wizarding world when he didn't want your crazy daughter. And let's not forget Molly Prewett, us purebloods have a long memory, do you forget the things you did that I'm sure your husband doesn't know about. Old loves that you claim you had no interest in, and children that you claim you never had. That right, you took those potions didn't you? And you said it was an accident! You knew the child wasn't your husband and so you killed it!"

Molly was frightened that news about her that she had tried so hard to keep secure was getting out and slapped Narcissa across her face. Narcissa slapped her back and would've continued if she didn't see the crowd advance on her. She knew she was outnumbered and only hoped she got out alive.

Narcissa could take any insult about herself but her son wasn't there to defend himself and the supposed defender of the light was basically ambushing her. Narcissa drew her wand and was ready to strike when she was stupefied from behind. Molly took no time in throwing curses at the disabled woman. Some of the crowd started to join in feeling as if this would be the only time they would get to attack a Malfoy. No one care what spells or hexes they threw at her, the intent was obvious; maim or kill.

Madame Malkin came bursting through the doors with some Aurors with her. She had heard the commotion and upon seeing a derange Molly Weasley and a crowd she had to fire call the Aurors. Unfortunately, old prejudices die hard and some where more slow than necessary in getting to her shoppe. When she threatened them with Harry Potter however, they made haste.

When the Aurors arrived on the scene it was to see a Molly Weasley about to send a Fiendfrye curse that would've surely killed Narcissa. In trying to unarm Molly, the head Auror on the scene misfired and Molly collapsed hitting her head on the pavement.

Chaos started to reign and people started screaming in the alleyway yelling they were under attack. The Aurors had to stupefy those that attempted to run away. Madame Malkin was trying to heal Narcissa from the most serious of the hexes. Fortunately no cut was too deep to have scarred or anything life threatening.

When Madam Malkin was about to heal the last of the major injury she heard a sudden stand still in the noise. Draco and Harry had somehow heard about what was going on and was standing in the center of the alleyway vibrating with anger.

Draco was about to curse someone, anyone when Harry whispered to him to go check on his mother. Draco felt torn but he knew if the situation was reversed he would've been his mother's first priority. He had barely convinced his father not to come because he knew Lucius would've killed first and asked questions later and that wouldn't help him in his quest to stay out of Azkaban.

Harry was the picture of leadership when he commanded a young man near him to tell him what he knew. He had only known that Narcissa had been attacked but he saw Molly there and believed she was attacked too. Until, he heard from the boy that Molly Weasley was the one that started it all. Harry asked no questions before he stormed over to the now regaining consciousness Molly Weasley. Harry was about to strike her when an Auror held on to his hand.

"Lad, I know you're upset but think about this carefully. Any case you have will be tainted once you hit her. We'll arrest her and those involve and get the story. Let the courts handle it." Harry recognized the voice as on the older Aurors, Brian Periwinkle. They had conversed a few times and he had always struck Harry as fair. Harry was about to walk away when Draco called for his attention, Narcissa was up and able to walk on her own. Draco was desperate to get her to the private healers they employed.

Narcissa had also told Draco that Molly Weasley was the main culprit. Draco didn't have the control that Harry had and he rushed upon Molly and struck her across the face. After hearing the bits and pieces of what Molly had done the Aurors turned a blind eye.

Lucius was talking to at least three lawyers when Draco and Harry bought Narcissa home to Malfoy Manor. Each one was trying to outdo the other in ways they would make whoever did it pay. When Lucius saw Narcissa he was out of his seat before he knew what was going on.

They embraced quickly and remembering they had an audience walked out to be secluded.

"Molly Weasley was the perpetrator. She is currently being held at the Auror cell. I want to make sure she never sees sunlight again. There is no way she will get away with this. What you can't do legally, I will find other ways of getting done" Draco said.

"As my children's grandmother, she is under my protection. Any threat to her is a threat to me. I want this handled." Harry said chillingly. "Let's go home to our children, Draco."

The men and women in the room stared as The Harry Potter commanded them to legally garner the woman who he once looked at as a mother.

"Madame Bones, witnesses say Draco Malfoy struck Molly Weasley while she was regaining consciousness. Surely that's reason enough to start a petition" McGonagall pleaded.

"He struck her after she injured his mother and almost incited a rioting crowd to kill her. He was well within his rights. That he didn't kill her is a surprise to me and all the aurors that were there. They barely contained Harry" Bones countered.

"So, you agree that his temper was so out of control that aurors had to control him. That he was on a scene of something and he didn't know what happened but he reacted. That's not what the children needs."

"He asked a witness!" Bones said tirelessly.

"James biological grandmother almost killed Draco's mother don't you think he'll want revenge? And what better way than a unprotected child!" McGonagall pleaded.

Madame Bones was reluctant to act but she had heard too many cases of concerned citizens trying to protect children and law enforcement failure to act leading to the death or injury of the child. And there was some reason to what McGonagall said, within his right Draco had struck Molly but James could be in danger if he decides to seek vengeance through him. Hermione who was playing the role of concern friend started to repeat what she had originally told Minerva. Surely, if one of Harry's best friend was concern they was some merit to the argument.

"If the children are removed from his care on my command, where would they go?"

"With me of course," Hermione interrupted. "My past is stellar and I'm sure you could make certain concessions if I stay here under Minerva's watch.

"We'll see what we can do." Madam Bones said upon her exit.

After filing the paperwork to have the children removed from Harry's care Madame Bones was informed she had a visitor. She was surprised to see Xenophilious Lovegood. He held in his hands the articles that Luna had sent to the printing press and he wanted to know what he should do with the content within.

When Madame Bones saw what was within and the many crime against the students that had been committed under the current and previous headmasters. One of the perpetrators, Umbridge, was still working here. The implications of what Luna Lovegood was saying was massive and if she could get even a fraction of the student body that was present to back up her story there was going to be a political storm in the Wizarding world.

"I'm not supposed to tell you this, but there has been charges filed against Harry and Draco for child endangerment. I only tell you because they were initiated by the person who is currently going to be fielding these accusations your daughter has made in her article. Since, Harry was a minor; I will file charges pending and investigation. "Madame Bones informed Mr. Lovegood.

"And were your charges also pending investigation? I surely hope your agency wouldn't have done something rash like attempt to remove the children from their care." He said archly.

Madame Bones had the decency to flush because she was planning on doing just that.

"Harry would kill your Aurors and say they attempted to kidnap his children. Proceed carefully. "

Madame Bones was in a quandary. If she failed to file either set of charges she would commit social suicide as well as her niece, Susan, would never forgive her if Harry lost custody of his children because she failed to collect facts objectively. She needed to speak to someone who could give her impartial advice and honestly, unless she kept names out of the scenario, anyone she told was likely to become emotionally involved.

As the Lovegoods, Longbottoms, Malfoys and Potters sat down to dinner everyone was talking about what to expect. Augusta and Lucius as the more politically involved family members were instructing Harry as to steps he had to take by himself and steps they all had to take as a whole. Draco was nervous that his actions earlier might cause the children to fall into the wrong hands and Harry kept trying to reassure him that their children weren't going anywhere. Neville was thinking of ways to kill Hermione without spilling any blood.

Finally Lucius exclaimed surprising them all.

"Lily Evans was a muggleborn. Harry Potter would be classified as a pureblood. As his children, they are purebloods. On both sides, Nymphadora Tonks was a half-blood but with the blood adoption Teddy is pureblood. Even without the adoption but they are the youngest heirs for the Black Family line and as a Ancient and Most Noble House they have certain right. Once their parents are alive, they cannot be given into a care of anyone who isn't from an Ancient and Most Noble House. This helped families in time of war keep track of pureblood children that were orphaned" Lucius told the group.

"Also, Pure Blood Code of Honor dictates that 'If one arms another their family can call for their life or a life debt.' But, you must state it at the beginning of any trials and be prepared if they are also versed in the codes and can wield laws against you." Augusta said.

"We are all forgiving the seats Harry has on the Board of Governors and the Wizenagamot. We need to get his seats handed over to him. "

And as they sat plotting throughout the night Arthur Weasley sat worriedly wondering what his family would be called out with when this was all done. He couldn't believe Molly had attacked another witch, moreover a Pureblood who lived by Pureblood rules. Not only have that, after viewing the pensieve memory of someone who was there and he saw the surprise that came across Molly faced when Narcissa mentioned an old love and possible abortion. Molly never denied it, if anything she seemed upset that her dark past was being aired for all to hear.

It was with a heavy heart that he called a family meeting, possibly the last that Molly would attend as a Weasley.

Hermione felt that things were finally looking up. By morning, she would have the boys that Harry loved more than anything, and anyone who control the boys would control Harry. She would only have to make sure Malfoy came no were near her and Harry and she could convince him the error of his ways. If anything, maybe her parents would welcome her after she showed she could be normal and produce a family.

Harry was first worried that things might run a little differently in the Wizarding World than in the Muggle World and so he had put out some feelers with a team of experts and was glad the information came back positive. Unless they could somehow prove that he was abusing the children, they couldn't be removed from his care. He hoped one of them would go so far as to have something damaging to his reputation because he would sue them so fast they wouldn't know what happened. He was afraid that the Weasley's would've tried to convince Andromeda to fight for custody being a blood relative of Teddy but here he had the documents were she severed her rights to Teddy formally. Harry wished someone would make a wrong move because he was out for the kill and wasn't about to take any prisoners.

This ends the over haul new chapter up soon.
