Chapter 7
Harry sighed and tucked his jacket a little bit closer as he and Remus stood out the front of what looked like an abandoned department store. Remus walked up to the dummy and stated his business; he waved Harry to the window and walked through with the teen.
"Good evening, we are here to see Mr. Draco Malfoy." Remus asked the receptionist.
"Come back during visiting hours." She responded.
"We have special permission from the Minister of Magic. I am Remus Lupin and this is Harry Potter." Remus introduced, knowing that, that would get the woman's attention.
And it did, the woman's head flew up and looked straight at Remus and then at Harry, her eyes going to the fading scar and hurriedly buzzed them through and called for the doctor.
Harry walked through a head of Remus, letting out a sigh, knowing that it was his status once again that had gotten him through where others, beside those of the Ministry, would not have been able to get in.
"Bloody prat better appreciate this." Harry grumbled as they were stopped by what seemed to be Draco's doctor.
"Mr. Potter, Mr. Lupin." The doctor greeted, pumping the hand of each man enthusiastically.
'Some ones had too much coffee.' Harry thought grumpily.
"If we could please head to Mr. Malfoy's room. Harry has to get back for school." Remus explained.
The doctor nodded, "Of course, I am Dr. Flowne. Please follow me."
Dr. Flowne led the pair down the hall and into the lift up to the forth floor for Spell Damage and explained to Remus and Harry what exactly had happened with Draco, what they were doing to cure the teen and what curative potions that he still had to take for the next year due to the unstableness of his emotions.
As they got to the door, Harry grasped the elbow of the doctor; "I would like to talk with Draco alone a moment please?" He asked.
Dr. Flowne nodded with a slight frown on his face, "Of course Mr. Potter."
"I'll leave you to the hard stuff Remmy." Harry said to his guardian with a smile and disappeared into Draco's room and lent against the door and let out a sigh as he looked around the room.
The room was the same old white with very little flare to it, there were only a few flowers giving any semblance of colour to the room. Nothing about the room screamed Draco or a Malfoy. Harry headed over to the bed where Draco was laying, facing the wall.
"No more tests, please." A soft voice whispered.
"I'm not qualified for doing tests." Harry responded and lightening quick, Draco was facing him and his body was pushed back to the rail opposite Harry as though to get away from the teen.
"What are you doing here?" Draco asked, his voice still soft.
Harry shrugged, "The Ministry have asked me to take you in and teach you the good things about the light side and Muggles." He explained, "Or you could just stay locked up in here until they decide otherwise."
"And what would I have to say to get out of here?" Draco asked.
"You wouldn't have to say anything Malfoy, it is I that am to judge as to whether or not what I have been told about you is true or if you're just faking it all." Harry responded as he walked over to the lone chair in the room and dragged it over to the bed and took a seat, "You should know that I will be in charge of your vaults and properties should I decide to take you in. But what I want to know is where are your parents in all of this?"
Draco looked down at the white blanked, his fingers picking at a loose thread, "I don't know. I haven't seen them since their trials." He explained.
"Do you know where they would be?" Harry asked.
"At Malfoy manor I would hazard a guess." Draco's face turned red with anger, "WHERE ARE THEY? WHY AREN'T THEY HERE WITH ME?" He raged and threw the jug and goblet at the wall in frustration.
Harry sighed and ran a hand through his hair, letting the other teen go, "All right. I'm going to go and talk with them and then I'll be back all right."
"I don't want to stay here please." Draco whimpered.
"I'll be back soon." Harry sighed and left the room and a wailing Draco behind, begging the teen to come back.
Harry closed the door and lent against the wall next to it and let out a sigh and looked up when he felt a hand settle on his head.
"You alright Cub?" Remus questioned.
"Yeah Moony. I'm okay." Harry responded, "But we need to go to Malfoy manor. I want to know why Mr. And Mrs. Malfoy aren't here for their son and why I'm getting control of their estates." He explained.
Remus nodded, "All right cub, let's head to Gringotts. They can give us all of the information that you need to find out where they are since you have been given control of their estates."
"Okay. I feel bad leaving Malfoy like that, crying out for me and his parents but I need to find out where they are and why they aren't here for their son." Harry responded.
Emmett looked around the largely furnished room that belonged to him and Rosalie, though most of the things that were in the room belonged to Rose and she was out at that moment with Alice getting another new wardrobe.
"Is everything alright Emmett?" Jasper questioned his brother as he stopped at the doorway, "Your emotions are all over the place today."
"Yeah, I'm alright." He responded.
"How about we go hunting then? Get your mind off of whatever it is that you are agonising over."
Emmett jumped off of his bed, "Sounds good to me. How about we get Eddie in on it too, make a guys day of it."
"I'm there." Edward said appearing in the doorway.
Emmett smiled brightly at the pair and the three headed out of the house and into the forest.
Bella Swan looked blandly out of the window of her room, completely bored out of her mind stuck in the plain and boring town of Forks. She should have kept her mouth shut when she told her mum that she would stay with her father while she and Phil travelled around.
Now she was stuck here in Forks, Washington.
The sound of an old engine pulling into the drive shook Bella out of her moping and had her heading to the stairs to look out the window that was near the landing to see an old red truck parked in the driveway with her father and two others standing next to it.
"Hey Bella. What do you think?" Charlie asked his daughter as he patted the tray of the truck.
"For me?"
"Thought you could use something to get around town in. Instead of being seen transported around by your dad in his squad car." Charlie explained to her.
Bella smiled brightly at her father, the first smile she had given since arriving, "It's great thanks dad."
"You remember Billy Black right?" Charlie asked Bella patting Billy on the shoulder.
"Yeah of course, how have you been?" Bella asked the man.
"Better now that you're here. Charlie hasn't shut up about it since you told him you were coming." Billy explained with a smile.
"Keep exaggerating and I'll roll you down a hill." Charlie responded.
"Right after I ram you in the ankles." Billy joked back and started to roll after the other man.
Jacob shyly approached Bella, "I'm Jacob. We made mud pies together when we were little."
Bella nodded jerkily, "Yeah I remember." She gave him a small smile and looked over at their dads, "Are they always like this?" She asked.
"It's getting worse with old age." Jacob chuckled and opened up the truck for Bella, "Come on I'll give you a crash course with the car." He said and ran around to the other side and jumped in.
"Okay, so you've got to double pump the clutch when you shift but otherwise you'll be fine." He said and handed her the keys.
"Maybe I can give you a ride to school." Bella offered.
"I got to school on the Reservation." Jacob said apologetically.
"Oh." Bella sighed, "Would have been nice to know at least one person there." She said and started the car and let the beast idle.
Remus stumbled slightly as they arrived on Azkaban Island. The apparition reminding him that Harry was a quite powerful wizard to apparate on to a place warded against it. Remus barely had time to pull himself together before Harry was heading into the prison.
"Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy, are they here?" Harry demanded the guard.
"Ah, yes. Yes sir they are." The flustered Guard said.
"I want to see them now."
"I'm sorry sir but I cannot allow that." The guard said.
"You will take me to them now or I will force myself in there." Harry told him, "And I don't think that you would want me to do that."
"You cannot cast magic here sir."
"I just apparated on to this damn island I think that I can do magic here as well." Harry growled at him.
"It is not benefiting you to lie sir."
Harry raised a brow, "You don't know who I am do you?" He questioned, pleasantly surprised at someone knowing who he was, the guard shook his head, "I am Harry Potter and I seems that nothing is impossible for me."
The guard paled slightly and became a jabbering mess and hurried quickly and opened the door that opened through to the cells and led Harry and Remus down the halls to where Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy were being kept.
"Can you tell me why Mr. And Mrs. Malfoy are here?" Harry asked.
"It was by order of the Minister. He escorted them here personally with a contingent of Auror's." The guard explained.
"The Malfoy's were proven innocent and it is against the law to imprison an innocent." Harry growled as they came to a stop at a pair of cells.
"I'm sorry sir. I did not know that, I just did as the Minister bid."
"That's alright. I will get this fixed quick smart. So if you could please open both cells we will be out of your hair and in tangling the Ministers." Harry said with a smile.
"Of course sir." The guard said and aligned his wand with where the key hole would be on both cells and the doors swang open.
"I'll check on Narcissa cub. You see to Lucius." Remus said and entered Narcissa's cell to check on the woman.
Harry took a deep breath and entered Lucius' cell and saw that the man was a dirty shell of his former self, Harry sighed and shook the man's shoulder, shaking him out of whatever thoughts he had immersed himself in. "Come on Malfoy. It's time to go." He said.
Dull sliver blue eyes looked over at Harry, brightening slightly, "Mr. Potter."
"Yeah it's me. Now come on, Remus and I are here to get you and your wife out of here." Harry explained.
"I doubt that the Minister was pleased with that." Lucius responded and he stood the best he could on his own, Harry walked over to the man and threw and arm around his shoulder and headed out of the cell to see Remus carrying Narcissa bridal style.
"The Minister doesn't know that we are here getting you out." Harry responded, "You shouldn't even be in here in the first place since you were deemed innocent."
"What?" Lucius growled, "What do you mean we were deemed innocent?" He questioned.
"I gave testimony for you, Draco and your wife. The Wizengamot declared you innocent of all crimes." Harry explained.
"The Minister told us that we were found guilty of all charges and sentenced to life in Azkaban. He even had our wands snapped." Lucius explained.
"Right. Well once I get you to Saint Mungo's to see Draco I will take care of things with the Minister."
"Why is Draco in Saint Mungo's?"
"He has been declared mentally unfit and the Minister has asked me to look after Draco and given me control over your vaults and holdings." Harry explained as they climbed into the boats. Harry didn't have the energy to apparate them all back to London.
Emmett let out a hearty, and very human burp as he wiped his mouth with the ever present handkerchief left in his pocket for such occasions. He strolled casually over to where Edward and Jasper were standing, having just finished their meal.
"That was great." Emmett sighed and threw an arm around each of his brothers, "We haven't done anything like that in a while just being us guys."
Jasper chuckled at the content and happy feelings he was getting from his bigger brother, "I'm glad that we've made you feel better Emmett. Now do you want to talk about what it is running through your head?"
Emmett let out a sigh, "I don't know what it is. I can't even make sense of it."
"Neither can I." Edward spoke up, not being able to get a read on his brother for a few days now.
"I guess it has something to do with me and Rosie. Everything feels different now." Emmett said.
"What do you mean?"
"Our room for one thing, it's all Rosie, there is nothing of me in it really. Just my clothes and a few bear sculptures and that's only on one dressing table and in one closet. Rose has four closets and the rest of the room for all of her knickknacks." He explained, "Last night's sex was just boring, kinda like a chore." He groaned and glared at his brothers, "Don't let Rosie know I said that."
"Your secret's safe with us." Jasper responded.
"What else?" Edward asked.
Emmett ran a hand through his short cropped hair, "Harry." He groaned, "It's something to do with Harry I just know it and it's throwing me for a loop."
"Wow." Jasper and Edward breathed.
"Yeah, wow."
Harry waited outside of Draco's room while his parents visited with him and talked with him. Remus had headed down to get them all something to eat since it had been a while for him and Remus and who knows how long for the senior Malfoy's.
Harry looked up when Dr. Flowne came to a stop next to him, "How are Mr. And Mrs. Malfoy?" He asked.
"Apart from being a little malnourished they will be fine. Nothing some chocolate, food and sleep in a decent bed can't cure." Dr. Flowne explained.
"We'll be taking Draco tonight as well as Mr. And Mrs. Malfoy." Harry informed him.
"Of course I will get their discharge papers drawn up and you can head off within the hour." Dr. Flowne explained and went to do as he said.
"MR. POTTER." Came what sounded like a controlled strangled yell.
Harry turned to the sound and saw the Minister and a team of Auror's coming toward him, "Yes Minister?" He asked coolly.
"Who do you think you are taking the Malfoy's out of Azkaban?" Scrimgeour snarled at the teen.
"Who do YOU think you are putting people declared innocent into Azkaban?" Harry countered calmly.
Scrimgeour spluttered, "You have no right questioning me boy. I am the Minister of Magic."
"And I am Harry Potter." Harry responded, "Who do you think the masses will back?"
Scrimgeour turned a very unattractive shade of red as the Auror's chuckled quietly behind him.
"Now I will be taking the whole of the Malfoy family home with me. Their accounts have already been handed over to me with the permission of Lord Malfoy with the Goblins signing off on it so there is nothing you can do about it now." Harry explained to him as Dr. Flowne and Remus arrived.
"The release forms Mr. Potter." Dr. Flowne said handing over the papers to the teen for him to sign, quickly signing it Harry turned to Remus and told him to head in and that he would be in there in a minute.
"If you have no other business Minister I need to get Draco ready for transport." He said, "Good bye." And with that Harry entered the room closing the door firmly behind him.
Ron grumbled as he levitated the chest of draws into the spare room and let it drop haphazardly, not caring about how if fell, and moved onto making up the bed. 'I can't believe that Harry is going to let Malfoy live with us.' He thought angrily.
"Are you nearly done Ron?" Hermione asked as she walked into the room, "Oh Ron." She sighed as she looked around the room.
"Yeah I'm done 'Mione." Ron responded tucking his wand back into the holster on his wrist.
"Just because you don't like him Ronald doesn't mean that you should half heartedly set up Draco's room." Hermione scolded him.
"Whatever." Ron grumbled and headed out of the room and headed for the kitchen.
Hermione let out a sigh and got started on straightening everything out and changing the colour scheme that Ron had left the room in. Bright orange wasn't anyone's colours. With a few swishes of her wand, the draws and desk were straightened as were the bed sheets and the colour of the walls changed to a moss green with grey carpet and bed coverings. Satisfied with it all she headed out of the room to check on how Teddy was doing.
Teddy was sleeping peacefully, a wolf plush under his arm and a thumb tucked in his mouth. 'Mione pulled the blanket up over the tot and turned on the baby monitor and headed down stairs to see what she could do to calm down her angry boyfriend.
"Look, Ron. I know that you don't like Malfoy, and neither do I, but we should give him a chance just like Harry is going to be doing." Hermione spoke up when she entered the kitchen.
"Don't like isn't strong enough 'Mione." Ron responded, "I hate him and nothing is going to change that."
Hermione sighed and sat down next to Ron and took his hand in hers, "I know that Ron. But think of it this way, he may not be here for very long at all. 6 months at the most and then we'll be rid of him." She explained.
"Yeah okay. As long as he doesn't say shit to me I won't even go near him and I won't have to hurt him." Ron said getting up and headed to the fridge to pull out something to eat.
Harry let out a groan as they touch down out the front of their house in Forks by Portkey. Never would he like Portkey's and his stomach and magic agreed with him as it lashed out to stabilise him.
"Thank you for housing us Mr. Potter until we find something." Narcissa thanked the teen.
"Ah, don't worry about it Mrs. Malfoy. It's the least I can do since the Ministry decided to lock you up after everything." Harry responded waving it off, "And please call me Harry."
"Only if you will do us the same curtsey and call us Lucius and Narcissa." Lucius responded.
"Of course Lucius. Now please come inside and we can get Draco up to his room and settled and then head out and get something to eat." Harry said and herded them toward the house.
"You show them around the house Cub and I'll head on down to Port Angeles for some Chinese." Remus said with a smile.
"Maybe you should take Ron and explain everything to him first and let him get it all out before we sit down for dinner." Harry said and ducked inside and herded the Malfoy's quickly up the stairs before Ron could see the three of them and Remus headed into the kitchen for Ron and to send Hermione upstairs to Harry.
"How did it go Remus?" 'Mione asked upon seeing the werewolf.
"Everything went well Hermione." Remus smiled and turned to Ron, "Come on Ron, we're going to Port Angeles for some Chinese while Hermione is going to help Harry with Draco." He said and ushered the teen out.
"So he's staying then?" Ron sneered.
Remus sighed, "Yes Ron he is and he is a very messed up young man." He explained as they entered the car.
Hermione walked out of the kitchen and headed up stairs to where Draco's room had been made up and was shocked to see that Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy were also present, "What's going on Harry?" She questioned.
"Scrimgeour had Lucius and Narcissa holed up in Azkaban." Harry told her, "I have said that they can stay here for a while until they find somewhere nearby to move into."
Hermione gasped, "They were in Azkaban?" She asked aghast, "But what about your testimony?"
"It seems that as soon as I was out of the country Scrimgeour had them arrested, their wands snapped and thrown in Azkaban." He explained.
Hermione was stumped, she couldn't even begin to guess what the Minister was thinking when he went against the Wizengamot and threw the Malfoy's in jail, "So that's why Remus took Ron. To explain to him that Mr. And Mrs. Malfoy are here."
Harry chuckled, "Got it in one 'Mione." He responded.
"How is Draco?" She asked coming over to the bed.
"He is really messed up Hermione and thought that his parents had abandoned him, not knowing where they were." Harry explained.
Hermione sighed, "I'll see what I can do about Ron."
Harry hugged Hermione, "Thanks 'Mione." He said giving her a peck on the cheek.
"Right then, Mr. Malfoy, Mrs. Malfoy, would you like to stay in here with Draco or would you like to have another room set up for your stay?" Hermione asked.
"If you have the room we wouldn't mind having our own." Narcissa responded, "Only if it isn't too much trouble."
Hermione waved her off, "It's not too much trouble at all, the room connecting to this one is free and you will be free to check on Draco as you please." She said and headed into the connecting room and started to transfigure a bed and some draws.
"We'll go out tomorrow and get you some clothes and extra towels." Harry explained, "For now would you like a shower?" He asked.
"That would be quite welcome." Lucius responded.
"Okay, I don't know what we're going to do about clothes but I think I can transfigure something to last the night for you." Harry said as he went out to the linen closet and grabbed a couple of towels and face washers and brought them back into Draco's room, "Here you go." He said as he went into the bathroom and put them on the closed toilet and re-entered the room, "Right then, I'll just go and look for something to transfigure and you can go on in." Harry said and headed for his room to look for something to transfigure.
Ron sat, fuming, in the front seat of the car while Remus headed into make an order and wait for it to be cooked and then heating charms would be applied to keep it warm on the trip home.
Ron ran a hand through his shoulder length hair in frustration, he had to reign his temper in while the Malfoy's were staying at the house, especially toward the younger Malfoy according to Remus.
"How are we feeling now Ron?" Remus questioned then teen, having left him for long enough to think about everything.
"I'm still pissed Remus, but if they keep their words to themselves then so will I. But if they start it Remus then I will dish it out." Ron responded.
"That's fair enough Ron and warnings and rules have been set for the Malfoy's as well as some for you, Hermione and Harry to follow as well." Remus explained.
"Yeah, alright Remus." Ron sighed.
"Hey Mr. Lupin." A voice called from behind him, Remus turned to the voice and saw Jacob with his father, Billy.
"Hello Jacob, Billy."
"What are you doing here?" Jacob questioned and got a hit from his father at the stupidity of the questioned.
Remus chuckled, "Just getting dinner for the family." He responded, "This is my other son, Ron. Ron this is Billy Black and his son Jacob. They are from the Quillet tribe that lives down at the La Push reservation." Remus introduced.
Ron lent out the window and gave the pair a wave, "Hullo." He said with a small wave and disappeared just as quickly back into the car.
Remus sighed, "Don't mind him. We have some guests that Ron has never gotten along with." He explained.
"That's alright. We understand." Billy responded waving it off.
"Lupin." Was heard through the door of the Chinese restaurant.
"Please excuse me, seems that dinner is ready." Remus said and shook Billy's hand and headed into the restaurant for their order.
"See you around Mr. Lupin." Jacob called behind the man and he and his father headed off again down the street.
