The Grass is Greener
Daniel Greengrass Had always remained neutral, it had kept his family out of the last war. He was also a Slytherin and a business man, the Head of an Ancient and Noble House. They had for thousands of years Sat on the ruling consuls, with Kings and queens. His Ancestors sat at the round table with Aurthur. Ruled in a Camelot, That grew into what was now Great Brittan. Yes there had been dark times come and go, as all histories had. He now had two daughters Daphene, was going to be exceedingly beautiful, even at five years old she a presence. Her blond hair was like silk, her face perfect, carried herself like a queen. Astoria was going to be pretty still in diapers her personality just really beginning to show.
Because of his girls, He could not allow darkness to return. He would try to call together the old council. He would be neutral no more.
Remus Lupin Was now holder of the Potter proxies. Sirius told him it would seem to much of a conflict if he held them. James would be Happy with the most recent turn of events. Now being aligned the Black, Potter, and Longbottoms Held forty seven percent of the votes on the Wizengomot, Not a majority but close. They could block most offensive legislation. All they needed to completely control the court and ruling counsel was eight votes.
At Potter manor, Training day for the kids was on.
Sirius had them learning fun jinxes today the were working on the jelly legs jinx. It was a very low powered jinx, That didn't take a lot to learn. It helped mostly with there aim at moving targets. The kids magical cores were not developed enough for long term training so once a week for an hour was great. Harry loved it. His spells were very strong for a five tear old, He was actually showing spell strength of a forth year at Hogwarts. Sirius Decided to test his emeries level, The test had long fallen out of favor, Causing to much competition for high scores. Though everyone knew your core is your core.
He took Harry to the dueling room and set up the emeries shield. Then told harry just point the wand at the shield And say Potem. A bright light shot from the wand Harry was holding, hit the shield, with a resounding bang. Sirius couldn't believe his eyes, The score read 1125 Mage. He thought some thing was wrong with the shield so he tried himself. His spell hit the shield, the score read 825 wizard. Sirius couldn't believe his eyes the score was correct. They would need to increase Harry's training. If he didn't control that much power he could hurt himself or some one else. Sirius decided to have a bit of fun.
"Harry, do you have a really Happy memory?" Harry scrunched up his little face and his glasses rose into his forehead.
"Sure Sirius, Why?" Sirius asked "Can you think real hard on that memory?" Harry laughed. "Sure Sirius I do all the time!" Sirius joined the laughter.
"Now move your wand like this." Sirius instructed. Once he had the wand movement down. "Now we say Expecto Patronum!" It took awhile but harry got the pronunciation correct. "Now put it all together"
Harry moved his wand and Shouted "EXPECTO PATRONUM!" A golden stag shot out of his wand and pranced around the room. Sirius passed out!
