The next morning, Harry woke up to find both he and his wife were naked, in bed together with his penis, though semi soft, still inside of his wife. Remembering the night before, Harry smiled and slowly tried to get out from underneath his wife.
"Don't even think about moving Harry. You are hereby taking the day off, go back to bed." Ginny ordered, never once moving from her comfortable position.
Knowing he was beaten, Harry closed his eyes, concentrated on his connection to his wife, and fell back to sleep thinking about his beautiful wife and him someone where they could run around naked for hours on end.
_________________________________________________________________________________
It was late afternoon when Harry awoke again, this time it was to the sensation of someone giving him one of the best blowjobs he had ever received. Opening his eyes, he saw his wife's wet pussy in his face. Smirking slightly, Harry pushed his tongue straight up into it, making Ginny gasp, which in turn caused Harry to stiffen even more in her mouth.
Ginny, who really wanted to taste Harry's cum, continued to work her mouth up and down Harry's shaft making Harry moan into her pussy, making her even wetter. After five minutes of work, Harry bucked his hips and came into Ginny's eager mouth. Ginny herself came seconds later, collapsing onto Harry.
With a tired smile, Harry closed his eyes, wrapped his arms around Ginny's legs and went back to sleep with Ginny lying on top of him, eye level with he worn out cock.
_________________________________________________________________________________
The next time Harry awoke, he found that he was alone in bed. After getting up and seeing the sun slowly rising over the horizon, assumed he had spent an entire day in bed. Harry made his way to the en suite bathroom where he took a very hot shower and prepared himself for the day. Seeing Ginny's used bra and knickers, Harry assumed that his wife left him to sleep in and start her day.
After dressing in casual open front robes with a pair of jeans, t-shirt, and his dragonhide boots, Harry made his downstairs to the office where Ginny was working. Unlike many of the other homes that they owned, Griffin's Den had one large office for both the Lord and Lady of the house to use. Though there was a smaller office attached to this office to serve as a location for any sort of private meeting that might come up.
Ginny was sitting at her desk talking to someone in one of the smaller communication devices that Nicholas and Perenelle had already built with the goblins before their deaths. "…Mum I don't care what Hestia wants, Harry needs his rest. He has been using his time dilation spells, astral projection abilities, and a goblin time turner to get everything he has been working on finished. It won't kill anyone to not talk to Harry for a couple of days."
"I know dear…but there is a lot going on. Harry needs to be around for all the reports that are piling up and I know that Ron wanted few minutes for his time—"
"Molly. Are you at Phoenix Nest right now?" Harry asked, interrupting his mother-in-law.
"Harry! No. I am at the Burrow right now? Why is everything alright? I can floo right over to you right now. I knew Ginny should have paid more attention when—"
"Damnit Molly will you please be quiet for a minute?" Harry demanded, visibly upset now. He didn't lose his cool with Molly very often, but when he did, it was major. "Ginny is taking good care of me. I finished a rather large project last night which took a lot out of me. I am resting, under the direct care and threats of my wife, and will be ready to deal with everything in a couple of days.
"Now, I need you to go to the Nest, and inform Hestia directly that I want a full meeting of the order and the DA for Tuesday evening at eight o'clock. I also want Mackrack, Griphook, Minster Bones, and Captain Jennings there as well. Also, please inform Hestia to call a meeting of the Executive Committee for Tuesday morning. I want Captain Jennings and the others there as well.
"Now, I am going to go. Ginny wants me to eat breakfast then we are going to head to the chalet and relax. I love you mum." Harry quickly closed the communication channel and turned to his wife.
"That was great Harry. But why do want to meet with everyone on Tuesday?"
"It is time to end this war Ginny. I want to do it sooner rather than later. Listen, there is a lot of things I need to do before than, can you help?"
Ginny smacked her husband upside the head before speaking, "Of course you fool. I am by your side, now thru the end of time."
Harry kissed his wife deeply. After breaking the kiss, Harry got a far away look in his eyes, "Gin, can you please invite Albus, Minerva, Ron, Hermione, Moody, Fred, George, Remus, Tonks, Bill, Charlie, Fleur, and Percy here for lunch and a long strategy meeting. Tell them to bring some clothes and plan to make it a weekend visit. Also, inform them that I don't want to be disturbed by anyone else?"
"Sure love. But why not just invite the entire Committee? Wouldn't that be easier?"
"Not this time. This may take a while and to be honest, I don't need everyone in on this yet. Besides Hestia needs to run the Nest, Dad is needed at the Ministry along with you Mum, and I know Kingsley is swamped with work too. No, this can be a smaller group for now."
"Ok my green-eyed monster. Why don't you go and get some breakfast in the kitchen while I make the arrangements. Oh and I know Dobby really wanted to speak to you."
"I'll invite Dobby and Winky over for breakfast and the weekend too." With a kiss to his wife, Harry left the office and headed for the kitchens.
Unlike Hogwarts, the kitchens at Griffin's Den were on the first floor, just off of the main dining room. According to Nicholas and Perenelle, Nicholas and Perenelle Flamel, this was how they now referred to their dead counterparts who created them, moved the kitchen out of the basement because elves should be treated like family, not slaves.
"Dobby, Winky, can you come here please?" Harry called once he sat down at the kitchen table.
There were two quiet pops as Dobby and Winky appeared. Winky looked a little green from the trip while Dobby looked healthy and just a little worried for his mate.
"Winky, are you alright?" Harry asked.
"Winky is little sick from the baby Harry Potter sir. Baby does not like to travel and makes sure Winky knows when Winky does travel." Winky said.
"I'm sorry Winky. If I had known, I would have come home to you. Anyway, Dobby, I was told you wanted to see me."
"Yes Harry Potter sir. Dobby wishes for Harry Potter to order Winky to not work so hard. Winky is trying to be a good elf, but is not following Weasley Mum's and Madam Poppy's orders about resting."
"Winky does not need to rest. Winky is a good elf and is doing her duties. Dobby yous needs to be paying more attention to yous jobs than Winky and Winky's jobs." The elf snapped.
"Ok, that is enough. Winky, from this point until your baby is borne, I order you to work three hours a day, no more than that. I also order that the only work you can do is anything that you can do while sitting at a table or in a comfortable chair, as long as Madam Pomfrey or Mum Weasley say it is ok. You are to use absolutely no chemicals or potions. Also, this weekend, you and Dobby will be staying here as guests of mine. Neither of you are to work, you are to allow the elves here to do all the work. We are having a weekend long strategy meeting and I feel that you both will be of great use in these meetings." Harry ordered.
"Then what will Winky do for work Master Harry Potter sir. There is never any enough work for Winky to do that Winky needs to stay in one place."
Harry had to think about that one. Winky was right, there was little work she could do from a chair unless she… "Winky I have a solution. You will study reading, writing, math, accounting, science, philosophy and any other field that you wish for eight hours a day; as long as you remain in seated.
"Winky, I hereby appoint you secretary to the Potter Family Council of House Elves. You will handle all of the paperwork that deals with the elves of the Azkaban, Black, Flamel, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Potter, Ravenclaw, Slytherin Families and their duties as well as the elves that serve Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic.
"Dobby, I want you to appoint two elves; one for you, and one for Winky, to serve as your assistants. These assistants will handle all of the errands you need ran. Winky, understand this; you are the most powerful female house elf in all of Great Britain. I am giving you this job because I know you can handle it. If you have any issues, speak to Ginny, me, Dobby, or Gabby at Hogwarts ok?
"Yes Master Harry Potter sir. Winky will be a good elf and do as her Master wants." Winky cried.
"Good, now you may start on Monday, this weekend you are to relax and enjoy your time here, except when we are meeting. Dobby, go home and get whatever you both might need for the weekend."
Dobby disappeared right away as Winky thanked Harry again and left the kitchen to go lay down in the room Harry already asked the elves to prepare for his two friends.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Albus and Minerva arrived at the Den a little before lunch time. With it just being the four of them, Dobby and Winky decided to remain in their room and sleep per Poppy's orders; they lunch on the large back patio. They talked about a number of simple things, the weather, Albus and Minerva's new marriage, Albus and Minerva went to Geneva and had one of the members of the ICW perform the ceremony, and other light items. As they were finishing, Harry decided it was time break out their weddings gifts.
After leading them down to the Alchemy Lab and removing the charms and protections on the door, Harry opened the door to the storeroom which held the staffs.
Albus immediately saw the standard staffs on the far wall and smiled, knowing that Harry had indeed been busy. Harry broke his mentor out of his musings.
"Albus, those aren't your staffs, yours are over here." Albus and Minerva turned and saw the staffs Harry was talking about. There before them were two staffs made out of Yew wood from lightening struck Yew tree. Albus' noted that one of the staffs had a Dark Purple Amethyst encased in a diamond on top while the other had what could only be identified as Cat's Eye also incased in diamond. Smiling at Harry's irony, Albus reached for the Amethyst Staff and laid it down on the work table in front of him.
"I take it I need to merge my wand with it Harry?" Albus asked.
"Yes place it tip up above the handle grip and then place three drops of blood on the wand three drops on staff itself."
Albus did as he was asked and watched as his wand and blood, like Ginny's, was absorbed into the staff. Once completed, the capstone emitted a bright light then faded into a soft pulsating pattern, like Ginny's.
Minerva, who knew all about staffs, because she was a member of the Clan McGonagall, performed the same ritual, and was soon wielding her own staff as well.
After learning the basics of the staff, including the transforming into different lengths, the group headed outside for a mock duel.
The duel lasted five minutes, which was long enough for Albus and Minerva to realize their staffs were very powerful, also that they did not want to be anyone who faced Harry and Ginny if they were even remotely upset. The stunner and bat bogey hex combination from Ginny took Minerva out within seconds while Albus and Harry dueled with everything they had in them. Harry finally slipped a disarming charm thru Albus' defenses which not only knocked the staff away, but also sent Albus flying back thirty feet.
After apologizing to the two professors and healing their injuries, they foursome returned to the manor house to find that everyone else was already there for the weekend.
_________________________________________________________________________________
After getting everyone their staffs and having them test them, the group sat down for dinner and strategy. The last one into the room was Alastor who had just finished a security sweep. Moody was using his staff in cane mode, which Harry made specifically for old Mad-Eye and the elder members like Albus and Minerva, though he didn't tell them yet. Even with Moody's new leg, courtesy of St. Mungo's, he still walked a little slower than everyone else and with a small limp.
"Good idea about the staff laddie. Now no one will know that I have my wand drawn, Constant Vigilance!" Moody muttered.
"You're very welcome. Actually, all of you are welcome. The staffs are why we are all here. I fell that the time to end this war is coming quickly. I want to launch a massive assault on the storehouse in Albania. If what Kreacher said was correct, then we need to destroy the obelisk and then Tom."
"Begging your pardon Harry Potter sir. If Kreacher did comes back from the other side of the veil, then Kreacher be telling truth. It is Elf Magic and love that let Kreacher return to tell us what wes be needing to be doing Harry Potter sir." Dobby stated.
"He's right Harry. I have been doing some research, and I am sure that Kreacher was indeed truthful. Also, according to what we have learned from the book Oliver brought back, I think we know exactly what the obelisk is." Hermione stated. She rose from her chair and activated a digital projector and computer, which were designed to work around magic. However unlike a normal projector, this model projected in three dimensions.
"As we all know, magnetic and magical lay lines criss-cross the earth north to south and east to west. Where these lines intersect are very strong areas of magic. The strongest of these intersections are where Hogwarts Castle stands, Stonehenge, The Great Pyramid in Egypt, The Eternal Flame where American Muggle President John F. Kennedy is buried, the Imperial Palace of the Forbidden City in China, Tenochtitlan-The Lost City of the Aztecs in Central America, the Center of the Amazon Rainforests, the location of the Lost City of Atlantis in the Atlantic, The middle of the Pacific Ocean where it is rumored that Pacifica-The fabled location of sister city of Atlantis-once stood, Uhra- an ancient aboriginal holy site in Australia, Eden-Also known as Mesopotamia in modern darn Southern Iraq, a location above the artic circle called the dead zone-it is a place where no technology can work, and one place in Antarctica just like the dead zone in the artic.
"Only the Artic Dead Zone and Antarctic Dead Zones, and the lost cities of Pacifica and Atlantis are on perfect opposite sides of the globe from each other. These four locations are also perfectly equal distant from each other. The other locations I mentioned are spread sporadically through out the world, but there is a large number of them in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
"I do believe that is because most of the rest of the world has not been as thoroughly searched by witches and wizards as Asia, Europe, Northern Africa and the Middle East have been.
"There strongest of points that we know about are Stonehenge, Hogwarts Castle, The Great Pyramid, and the Forbidden City. However, there are other sites, though less powerful, that has never been found. According to the book from the storehouse, Grindelwald built his storehouse on one of these lesser known intersection points.
"Grindelwald had devised a way to construct what he called a monolith…" Hermione tapped her wand on the projector, showing a drawing of Grindelwald's original design. "…According to his notes, he was thought it should be possible to use the monolith to convert the neutral power of the lay lines into a type of dark magic that would feed and recharge him.
"However he never completed his work. Tom Riddle, who first stumbled upon the storehouse, found this notebook and added more of his research to it. It looked like he spent time in Egypt and used what he learned to complete Grindelwald's monolith, thou it now took the shape of an obelisk."
"I know what you're talking about Hermione." The high priests erected a number of them to help harness their power to help build the pyramids and summon different magical beasts and animals to help protect the tombs of their kings and pharaohs. The problem is that all of the ones that still exist today were producing positive magic, or light magic if will; Because magic is neutral, it is the intent of the caster that turns it's user light or dark." Bill piped up.
"Yes, that is correct Bill, Grindelwald and Voldemort both had some understanding of this concept, but they both believed that 'Dark Magic' was stronger because dark emotions are easier to produce and thus making 'Dark Magic' better. According to the book, Voldemort had to portkey back and forth to his obelisk weekly to recharge his power. I think that is why he wanted Hogwarts so badly. Except for Stonehenge, Hogwarts is the strongest intersection point in Great Britain and the world.
"Voldemort wants Britain first because of the power that lies here!"
The room was silent as everyone processed what Hermione had said. Finally Harry spoke up, "Ok Hermione, how do we destroy this monolith or obelisk thing?"
"I don't know."
"What about a large explosion."
"I doubt it Harry. Even with the most destructive spells we know, we are literally battling with the magic of the earth itself." Albus said, with Remus agreeing.
"Who said anything about a magical explosion?" Harry said smirking.
Once again the room was quiet. Harry took this as his cue to continue. "What if we lay the most destructive explosives known to muggle kind next to and around the obelisk? Do you think it could work?"
"Harry, I think all we need to do is separate it the obelisk from its base. From what I can tell, the obelisk is an energy sink that constantly converts magic and discharges it. If we can separate it from whatever is holding it to the earth, then the obelisk will quickly run out of power and then it will be just a normal stone of whatever it is made out of."
"Harry what kind of explosives do the muggles have?" Minerva asked.
"Well the most destructive would be a thermonuclear bomb; like what the Americans used to end the Muggle side of World War II except today's versions are many times more powerful. However, getting a nuke might be hard so I would suggest a manufactured explosive called C-4. Thirty or Forty pounds of C-4 will create the same destructive force as a small nuclear bomb, but without the radioactive fallout."
"Sounds like it would be a suicide mission Potter."
"No Moody, we can remote detonate the bomb, which ever we use, from a safe distance. The problem is how we are going to get into the area to set the charges."
The group spent the remainder of the weekend flushing out the plan that would hopefully end the war. After the strategy was flushed out, those who needed to know what was going on were contacted and informed of the strategy. Many suggested additional steps, but no one opposed the strategy or the plan.
It was decided that Harry would acquire enough C-4 and materials from the muggles to level the entire mountain as well as the possibility of a thermonuclear device. Bill, Fleur, and the best curse and ward breakers Gringotts had would first open a large enough hole to let a small strike force in to plant the bombs,
The strike team would include Harry, Ginny, Hermione, Ron, Remus, Dora, Griphook, and Dobby-who would no matter what, fight along side Harry. Their mission was to infiltrate the storehouse and plant the C-4 charges. Once done, they would rendezvous with rest of the army and lead the attack.
Once the strike team was thru the wards, Bill and Fleur's team would give them four hours before they would start on actively trying to collapse the wards so that the main part of the Magical Army could enter and engage the enemy. In the absence of Harry and Ginny, the army would be led by Albus and Minerva. It would encompass the entire membership of Order of the Phoenix, most of the British, French, Australian, and Canadian Aurors, as many Regiments of Goblins as Mackrack could send without leaving key installations unguarded, and a full compliment of magical animals including dragons, acromantulas, centaurs, griffins, and hippogriffs under the direct control of Hagrid and Charlie. Charlie himself would lead the Dragon Riders on the back of Norberta, Hagrid's Hungarian Horntail, which incidentally was the same one that Harry had to deal with in the TriWizard Tournament.
Fred, George, Lee Jordan, and Moody would be in charge of the arterial bombardment of the enemy troops. Moody would also have the ability to call in an attack from Her Majesty's Royal Air Force.
The RAF would also be responsible for execution of Armageddon if so ordered. Armageddon was the codename for the operation that Harry, the Muggle Prime Minister, and the Queen designed and deemed as the final solution if the forces of light were to fall. It would only be activated if the Queen, the Prime Minister, the Minister of Magic, and Moody agreed. This final solution would also erect a set of blood wards five kilometers in diameter and 2 kilometers high at the top of the dome. The purpose of these wards was to trap the fallout of the nuclear blast within the wards. Though everyone within the wards would die from the fallout, the rest of the world would escape be safe.
Because of the shear scope of the final battle, it would impossible to defend every location in England plus have enough people to fight in the battle; so it was decided that the forces of light would consolidate their forces as much as possible and pool their collective resources.
Harry would place all of the properties he had control over in permanent stasis and lockdown except for Phoenix Nest, the Ministry of Magic, Griffin's Den, and twenty five percent of the Hogwarts House Elves. Potter Manor, Hogwarts, the Chalet in Switzerland, every single property he owned would be inaccessible. In a lockdown situation like this, nothing-not the ghosts or even the remaining House Elves would be awake. The entire location would be in a state deep sleep and stasis.
In case the worse happened, the primary fallback location for survivors would be Griffin's Den. If the den fell, then the survivors would fall back to Phoenix Nest. If the Nest fell, the survivors would fall back to the Ministry of Magic. The last person to evacuate each location would set the timers to the explosives that will utterly destroy that specific location, making sure there was nothing for the enemy to use.
If for any reason the Ministry of Magic fell, the emergency fallback location would be Gringotts Bank in Diagon Alley. Like with Griffin's Den and Phoenix Nest, if the Ministry of Magic fell, the last person to evacuate would initiate the self destruct sequence. Not only would C-4 charges go off obliterating the building, but the blast would also shatter containers holding toxic acid that would quickly eat anything it came in contact with-stone, parchment, human skin, everything.
No matter what happened, no one would be able to access Hogwarts Castle or the grounds. No matter what happened, Voldemort could not gain access to Hogwarts. Period. The house elves that would not be staying in Hogwarts would be sent to Griffin's Den along with an elite group of D.A. members to train as field medics. Thanks to the time dilation spell set to it's maximum upper limit, in three days of outside time, the elves and the D.A. Elite six months will have passed, giving them the best training possible. They would responsible for assessing the wounded and sending them back after treating whatever injuries they could. The D.A. Elite would be led by Neville and Luna.
It was decided that Griffin's Den would serve as the M.A.S.H. unit run by Poppy Pomfrey and her brother Peter, who worked at St. Mungo's. St. Mungo's itself would serve as the main care facility for those who could be transported back home. The D.A. would be at St. Mungo's serving as messengers, runners, helpers, and the last line defense inside the hospital. The other important job for the D.A. would be to keep an accurate record of who was admitted and who died. They needed to record what was wrong with them when they were brought in, who treated them, what treatment was used, what potions and spells were used to heal or try to heal the patient, and where they were within the hospital. They would also be responsible for the evacuation of St. Mungo's if needed.
After a rather loud and heated argument, Neville and Luna were given command of the D.A. Elite while Colin Creevey was given command of the D.A. at St. Mungo's. Colin, whose mum was an emergency responder in their hometown, was already teaching the D.A. both muggle and magical CPR, first-aid and basic hang signals and terminology. Never in Harry's life had Harry been glad that Neville and Luna had accepted Frank and Alice's advice regarding the training and meetings of the D.A.
In the unlikely event that St. Mungo's fell, the D.A. would begin to portkey everyone to St. Peter's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries in America. This was why the medical records were so important. If the worse happened, the healers and mediwitches and wizards would need to know as much information about their new patients as possible. To help with the security of the fall back positions and St. Mungo's; all Gringotts Banks Worldwide would remain open in a very limited capacity until the battle begun. Once the battle began, the banks would enter their version of lockdown and deploy as many fighters and support staff as they could to the battle and to protect the Ministry, St. Mungo's and Griffin's Den.
Starting three days before the battle, all activities not directly related to banking or preparations for the battle would cease until the battle was over. This included non-important mining, curse-breaking, exploration, investigations, and the guarding of Azkaban Prison. All prisoners currently in Azkaban would be portkeyed directly to three of the largest, deepest, and most secure vaults at Gringotts London. Azkaban's automated defense systems and wards would be activated, leaving Azkaban to fend for itself. Like other locations, Azkaban was wired with enough explosives to turn it into gravel if needed.
The goblins, and Harry, wanted to build a prison and if they took out some dumb Death Eaters looking to free their comrades…well so much the better.
All businesses that tied directly to both the muggle and wizard world-wide economy would remain open but with limited staff. The staff would mainly be older employees and squibs, people who could do more for the war effort by keeping the economy running. All able warriors and other individuals with needed skills would be sent to the main staging area to be sorted into different groups for the battle.
All Ministry personnel who were not able or willing to fit would be sent home when the battle began. Diagon Alley would be closed down and protected by goblin patrols and the extending of the wards protecting Gringotts. Those who remained at the Ministry would be confined to the war room next door to the Minister's office. The Department of Mysteries would be wired with additional charges to guarantee everything within would be destroyed. With the additional charges and promise that the Unspeakables who would guard the department planned to use Fiendfyre and other curses to obliterate everything down there, the strategy team at Griffin's Den could not help but be relieved that nothing of the Department of Mysteries would remain if the worse were to happen. It was a well known secret that there were things there that no human should ever even think about, let alone use.
The Royal Family, at Harry and Captain Jennings strong suggestion, would move from Buckingham Palace to the Royal Estate of Balmoral located high in the Grampian Mountains of Scotland. It was a very remote and very securable location. The original wards, which are still in place, included a self replenishing ward, and blood wards tied to the Royal Bloodline, were created by using Ancient Druidic Spells; probably by Merlin himself since it was known that he used Druidic to tie the wards around Hogwarts together. Since then, whenever the RMG upgraded any wards at Buckingham Palace, the wards at all of the Royal Residences were upgraded as well. Besides these facts, Balmoral was also close to the training camps for the Royal Magical Guard and so had the best chance of being defended.
To top off the security measures, if the wards of the Royal Estate were breeched, personal portkeys-which were to worn by the entire royal family-would automatically activate, transporting whoever wore them to the Office of the Secretary of Magic of United States of America.
After spending all night Friday and most of the day Saturday working on and flushing out the plan for the last battle and all the contingencies, the assembled group decided to spend Sunday sequestered in their suites at Griffin's Den with their spouses or by themselves. The only thing they had not decided on was when the attack was going to take place. The group agreed that would be decided by Harry and no one else. He would reveal his decision at the order meeting Tuesday night.
