Epilogue
As Harry Potter stood overlooking Hogwarts Valley, he thought about the last ten years.
In the ten years since the fall of Lord Voldemort, the Magical World of Great Britain had changed dramatically. This year marked the 10th Anniversary of the Fall of Voldemort and the beginning of what many people called 'The Second Renaissance.'
It began with a number of Royal Decrees that revoked many of the archaic laws regarding muggleborns, werewolves, vampires, goblins, and other half breeds. After the initial shock wore off, people began to see the benefits that came from these laws being rescinded.
Besides a huge uptake in the amount of births, the country was now leading the way in many fields of magic including potions, charms, transfiguration, alchemy, wand and staff making, magical transportation and magical technology. However they biggest change was the long standing peace between all different magical races.
In the field of potions and alchemy, huge advances were being made in the treatment and cure for a number of diseases both muggle and magical based. Some of these diseases cured things like Dragon Pox, Cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and organ failure and replacement including treatments for spinal cord injuries. Even in the Magical World spinal cord injuries were non-repairable until now.
In Charms and Transfiguration, new spells and concepts were coming out almost daily. Many of these were forgotten spells, but most were new spells.
The floo network had been redesigned and now transported people in a non-spinning manner, causing the amount of splinching cases due to apparition to drop to almost nothing. Broom development also advanced by leaps and bounds. The newest broom on the market, the Firebolt XLR II was the fastest broom in existence. With a top speed of 450 kilometers an hour, the rider had to wear a specially designed uniform in order to survive. With advanced braking, turning, and safety charms, it was also the safest broom in the world.
In regards to humanitarian issues, Great Britain had not only caught up with the rest of the world, they had surpassed them in many ways. Werewolves were treated as normal people and were even holding positions within the Ministry of Magic in many departments including the Auror Corps. On those days when their fury little troubles demanded their attention, they either spent the time in their own private secure rooms or at Black Castle which had been converted for use by the werewolves.
Vampires too were treated better and not like rabid animals. Because of their condition, they often took the night shift at jobs including once again the Auror Corps where many of them were decorated for going above and beyond the call of duty.
As for Hogwarts, Hogwarts herself currently had no full time werewolves or vampires on staff, though many were brought in as guest lecturers for different classes. Besides the obvious fields of History of Magic and Defense Against the Dark Arts, members of both groups were often asked to come and speak in Potions, Care of Magical Creatures, and some of the newer classes like Ritual Magic, Animagi Training, and Physical Education.
Overall it was a great time to be in Great Britain, especially if you were a war hero from the Second War with Lord Voldemort.
Luna and Neville Longbottom were very happy together and teaching. Neville taught Herbology at Hogwarts while Luna worked at Hogsmeade Primary School teaching writing and reading to the 5, 6, and 7 year olds. They both lived in the castle and had two children, Steven Francis who was 8 and Anastasia Marie who was 5.
Frank and Alice Longbottom resided in Longbottom Manor and continued to work as Aurors and also instructors at the Auror Training Academy.
Unfortunately the Longbottoms and Lovegoods experienced tragedy shortly after Steven Francis was born; Augusta Longbottom was killed while dining with Xenophilius Lovegood one afternoon in Diagon Alley. A rogue Dark Arts Supporter blew up the restaurant they were dining in. They had the distinction of being the last people killed in the Second War.
The Dark Arts Supporter was killed when Neville Longbottom found him lurking around the outer wards of Hogwarts. It was the first and only time Neville used the Killing Curse. Neville spent several months afterwards in a deep depression; it was only Luna and their son that finally brought him around.
Bill and Fleur Weasley remained devoted to each other, their family, and to Gringotts. Bill had been promoted and was now Senior Vice President in charge of all Curse and Ward Masters and Breakers. He was the first human to ever hold this position or any position so far up in the hierarchy of Gringotts. Fleur became head of the Department of Governmental Relations. Her department not only dealt with the Ministry of Magic for Great Britain, but all of the Ministries of the world, the ICW, as well a number of Muggle Governments. They had three children: Victoria who was 9, Louis who was 7, and Minerva Pomona was two. Shortly after the war they built their dream home only a few miles a way from the Burrow.
George and Angelina Weasley married four days after the Queen's Address to the Wizengamot in a private ceremony along with Fred and Alicia Weasley. The wedding was conducted by Albus Dumbledore with their families with them. Angelina and Alicia went on to play quidditch for the Holyhead Harpies for four seasons before they both became pregnant at the same time.
Weasley Wizarding Wheezes continued to grow and now had location in Diagon Alley, Hogsmeade, Salem Massachusetts, San Antonio Texas, Johannesburg South Africa, Paris France, Rio De Janeiro Brazil, Berlin Germany, Cairo Egypt, Beijing China, Sydney Australia, and Tokyo Japan. Fred and George moved the Corporate Headquarters of WWW Inc. right next to Phoenix Nest shortly after Harry bought up the entire block and gave them the two buildings next door. Both buildings contained offices, research and development space, and production areas for WWW.
George and Angelina lived on the 4th floor of one building with their 4 children: the twins Alexander and Douglass who were 5, Diane who was 3, and Marcus who was 16 months old.
Fred and Alicia lived in the next building on the 4th floor as well with their 4 children. Like George and Angelina, their oldest were twins Fabian and Gideon who were 5 and a second set of twins Monica and Patricia who were 2.
Percy Weasley eventually settled down and married his longtime girlfriend Penelope Clearwater six years after the final battle. It finally took a Potter/Weasley Clan Huddle to get Percy to pull his head out of his ass. Once Percy realized what he was doing, he became the perfect the husband and an even better Department Head. As the Head of the Department of Magical Transportation, Percy was guaranteed to be home every night. His wife Penny taught reading and history at the London Magical Primary School. They lived in a small flat in London and were expecting their first child.
Molly and Arthur Weasley continued to live at Burrow and watched as their family continued to grow. Arthur continued to serve as the Vice Minister of Magic and spent many hours with the Muggle Prime Minister. Molly became the High Headmistress for the Magical Primary Schools of Great Britain. She oversaw all six schools and spent a considerable amount of time at Hogwarts.
Charlie Weasley finally married and settled down with a woman he met at the Dragon Camp. Charlie was now the Head of the Sanctuary. Him and Anne, his wife, lived in Romania with their two children Chad who was 5 and Laura who was 3.
Remus and Dora Lupin continued to be love with each other and had three children: Teddy was 9, Elizabeth was 6, and Alexis was 3. Dora had been promoted to Lead Auror and did teaching at the Auror Academy. Remus worked full time at Hogwarts as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher and did assignments for the Order of the Phoenix.
Hermione and Ron Weasley also taught at Hogwarts. Hermione taught Transfiguration for 5th years and below while Ron taught Charms 5th year and below. During the year they lived in their suite in the castle along with their children: Arthur was 8, Daniel was 6, Rose was 4, Katherine was 2, and Anthony was 4 months old. While they were not at the castle they resided at their home, Little Manor.
Albus and Minerva Dumbledore continued to work and teach at Hogwarts. Thanks to Harry's orders, Minerva only taught 6th and 7th Year Transfiguration, Animagi Transformation, Special Projects, and remained both the Deputy Headmistress and Head of Gryffindor House.
Albus continued on as Headmaster and taught classes on Magical Law and Magical Theory. These classes were 6th and 7th Year classes which left plenty of time for his Headmaster duties and also to serve as a substitute on occasion. With Harry and Ginny removing the Board of Governors and handling their duties, Albus did have much more free time.
Albus also continued to serve as Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot but was beginning to groom Percy Weasley to replace him while he was grooming Frank Longbottom to replace him as the Supreme Mugwump of the ICW.
Harry and Ginny Potter continued to be very busy. Harry still served as the Lord Protector and the Lord of Hogwarts. As the Lord and Lady of Hogwarts, Harry and Ginny removed the Board of Governors and handled all of their tasks, which were really simple. Harry also continued to oversee the Wizengamot and the Ministry as the Lord Protector.
Ginny played Quidditch with her sister-in-laws for two years before retiring due to being pregnant with her and Harry's first children James Sirius and Lily Susan, who were now 7 years old; Albus Brian followed two years later then Wolfgang Harold three years later and their last child Joshua Tobias 2 years after that. After Ginny's retirement, she came to Hogwarts and took over for the retiring Madam Hooch as the flying instructor and Quidditch Referee.
The Order of the Phoenix continued to pursue Dark Witches and Wizards all around the globe and bring them to justice. So far they had captured and help prosecute over two hundred dark witches and wizards, making them one of best law enforcement companies in the world, whether Muggle or Magical.
"Yes, it has been a lot of fun, and a lot of work." Harry mumbled to himself as he drank his tea. He did not hear Albus join him on the balcony.
"Thinking Harry?" The old Wizard asked.
"Yes. Just about they last ten years and how far we have come."
"Well, none of it would happened if I had not been taught a very important lesson in y office all those years ago."
"What lesson was that Albus?"
Albus chuckled. "Never…and do I mean Never, piss off a Potter."
Harry and Albus laughed knowing that it was true.
