This story will vary more so then Part 1 did from Sorcerer's stone. I had some comments that they were too similiar- was still wary of how much to drift from the canon then.

Chapter 5- The Houses of Black and Malfoy united?

Nymphadora Tonks had informed the barrister, grabbed a protesting member of the Family services sent them both on their way to St. Mungos before running to Madam Malkin's. Telling them they were being requested by her mother had sent them rather quickly, a pureblood Head of House had a lot of power- even one had barely had the headship more then a few weeks. As an auror so did she but Mother was in her element these days. She ran inside, "I need trousers for the Weasley twins and shirts. Oh and a outfit for Miss Granger as well. You may charge it to the Black main vault at Gringotts."

"Nympadora Tonks? How nice to see you again. Oh dear…the Weasley twins? And Miss Granger? Let me see. Viola…look up their measurements for me please. Now let me see what I have. What are you looking for." the proprietress twittered.

"Simple. Inexpensive. Merely to replace ruined clothing." Tonks chewed her cheek, vaguely remembering Bill and Charlie from her years at Hogwarts. She didn't think that they would have taken kindly to hand outs…anything too expensive might seem that way.

"Very well. This blue will look wonderful and this green shirt too. Grey cotton trousers. Will look nice with their red hair and blue eyes. As for Miss Granger…a nice yellow skirt and perhaps a white blouse with lace."

"She is wearing pants Madam Malkin."

"Then I shall throw in under things for no extra charge."

"Madam…the measurements…" the assistant had returned

"No doubt they've grown but better then nothing? Most of my clothing is designed for older persons and resized. Minus uniforms and such…" glancing at the slips of parchment Madam Malkin adjusted the garments with a few charms before packing them, "That will be all…"

"Yes. Thanks." Tonks weaved her way to St. Mungos and back to where her mother had arranged a private room for Harry Potter, her mother's traitor of a cousin's godfather.

Andromeda was out in the hall with Lucius Malfoy, the barrister Antony Montague and minister woman from Family Services.

"Auror Tonks…"

Tonks nodded, "I picked up clothes for the children, mother."

Andromeda nodded, "Thank you. Give them to Cissy. She can see to the children. Poor thing…seeing his friend like this…it upset my dear nephew."

"Mistress Black…what is you intend to do." the lady from the ministry interrupted her.

Andromeda's eyes flashed, "I want Harry removed from those terrible Muggles' custody. I want them charged with child abuse and neglect. I want them ruined. He was my traitorous cousin's godson and as the current Head of the House of Black that should make Harry my ward. I will go before the Wizengamot if I have to. I dare anyone to tell me that poor boy deserves to go back to that hell."

"Mistress Black…he was put there by Headmaster Dumbledore." the woman from the ministry tried to protest.

"I don't care if he was placed there by Merlin or Salazar Slytherin! I want that boy if he wakes to know he is never going back to those horrible Muggles. If you don't have the gumption to do the right thing then bring me someone higher."

"Didn't you marry a Muggle-born Mistress Black…" the barrister tried not to sneer.

"Yes, but my Ted is the gentlest man. He is a Mind Healer. I think he could help Harry with his recovery."

Lucius nodded, "Mistress Black, if the Potter boy is put into your custody I suggest you have the goblins do a though inventory of his inheritance so that you know what he should be inheriting from the Potters. I believe the Potter seat will fall to you as a second vote in the Wizengamot."

Andromeda glared at him, "Thank you Lord Malfoy. I do appreciate your support for having me named as Head of my own House but I'll thank you to let me run things my way. I'll do it with minor threats of publicity and less bribes. No one wants this case to be brought to the attention of the Wizarding World."

"I do. How could anyone send a helpless child to be treated like that." Lucius sneered.

"Knowing you Lord Malfoy, you'd get Skeeter to write it. I don't need her or your fake sympathies." Andromeda snapped at him.

Narcissa exited with the twins and Hermione, "I'm taking these poor children home Lucius. They need to be bathed and fed."

Andromeda blinked, "You're allowing Bloodtraitors and a Muggle-born into the Manor…"

Lucius shrugged, "They're Draco's friends, they've been there before. Trust me. The last thing I want to do in my life is deny my son. It would be a very dangerous thing to do."

"Ha. Spoiling him no doubt." Andromeda huffed at him.

"Spoiling Draco? Pah!" came a both welcome and unwelcome voice.

"Severus Snape." Andromeda spat.

"A joy to see you too Andromeda. Trust me…that boy doesn't care about much these days then the Potter boy. He grew up at Hogwarts, Draco saw what no one else saw. Draco saw the truth and it woke him up. The boy who was sorted into our House was not the same boy I'd tutored for years. He doesn't care about new toys or what gifts we'll give him. Draco cares about protecting those he cares about. He sees into a person's heart and knows what they need. Pardon me while I check on my godson and his friend."

Lucius muttered, "More worried about Harry…"

Severus stiffened and glared at his old friend, "I'll thank you to keep such thoughts to yourself, Lucius."
