Chapter 17- Black exonerated, Fudge dismissed, Ron expelled?

Draco read the Daily Prophet, Harry eating breakfast at his side a few days after Harry had been injured and Blaisé's prophecy.

Wizengamot releases Sirius Black by Rita Skeeter

Sirius Black, the man who seemingly did the impossible and escaped Azkaban was released by the Wizengamot. His sentence was overturned at the insistence of Madam Bones, Head of Magical Law enforcement and the holder of the seat belonging to the house of Bones when new evidence came forward. Apparently, Peter Pettigrew who Black was accused of killing, faked his own death and went into hiding. Pettigrew's public accusation was proven false and the man pled guilty to many charges. Black is said to be recovering from his years in Azkaban and is looking forward to trying to go back to work as an Auror. He has already acknowledged Mistress Andromeda Black-Tonks as the head of his house. No mention of whether his status as the godfather of the Boy Who Lived will be returned to him now that he is free.

According to a source in the Wizengamot, Minister for Magic Cornelius Fudge did not want to allow the case against Black to be reopened. The holder of the Prewitt seat stood up and gave a vote of no confidence in Fudge which was echoed through the chamber. Fudge was dismissed by majority vote and Madam Amelia Bones, holder of the Bones seat and Head of Magical Law Enforcement was immediately voted in. Lucius Malfoy is said to have been the one to recommend her.

Madam Bones' first duty as Minister was to promote Senior Auror Kingsley Shaklebolt to Head of Magical Law Enforcement. Now, perhaps with Minister for Magic Amelia Bones, things left undone by Fudge or muddled by his gross incompetence will be rectified.

Draco glared, "Of course Sirius won't be getting Harry."

Harry read the article, "Oh…I don't want to live with him. He's scary and he's mean to Papa Sev. Your Aunt Annie didn't seem to like him either."

"I don't think anyone likes him, guilty of not."

A small owl arrived with a note and a larger one with a parcel.

Harry stared at it, his poor nimbus had come in a similar long box, "Draco…it's a broom. I know it is." he had the team's Nimbus 2001, he didn't need a new broom.

Draco opened the package and glared at it, it was a a Firebolt. A Premier racing broom, the Irish National Quidditch team apparently had outdated their entire team with them, Both the primary and reserve teams had them.

Harry opened the letter and dropped it. It was from Sirius Black,

Harry

I'm sorry, I couldn't come see you when you were hurt. I saw Remus take care of you and I knew you were safe. I knew your broom was destroyed so I thought I could give you a replacement. The little owl, I brought him for your friend Ron. I thought I could replace his pet rat, since it is my fault he doesn't have it anymore. Owl me if you need anything. I am currently staying at Grimmauld because it is the only place Andromeda is letting me have for now.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Sirius

PS. Now that I'm free I hope we can have a relationship. Your parents wanted me to take care of you if anything happened to them.

Draco read it and glared at it. 'Is the stupid mutt in contact with Dumbledore? You aren't friends with that Weasley."

Harry nodded, "I don't want the little owl, but I don't want to talk to him."

Draco sighed, "I know adder. We should just get it over with."

They walked over to the Gryffindor Table, "Apparently, Black was released. He felt bad about you losing your rat so he sent you a replacement animal. This tiny owl." Draco muttered.

Ron glared, "Don't need charity."

"It's not charity." Draco said between clenched teeth, "It's a replacement. We didn't want to give it you but it's supposed to be yours." he set the owl in front of Ron, "DO what you like with it." He and Harry left the disagreeable boy behind.

Harry to the Firebolt, pulling away from Draco and heading for Oliver, he held out the parcel. "I don't need this. I think it would be better if you had. You're trying to get signed by a Professional Team. It's only fair that you have the best broom so you stick out. Consider it an early Christmas Present."

Oliver stared at Harry, "You can't be serious, this is the fastest broomstick in the world. Professionals are all nuts for it." the Firebolt was made of ash wood treated with a diamond hard polish, with a tail of birch twigs. It was capable of going from naught to one hundred and fifty miles per hour in ten seconds. The Firebolt also boasted an unbreakable breaking charm, superb balance and precision, and hovers at reasonable mounting height when let go.

Draco was surprised, that Harry was giving it away so soon. He understood that Harry didn't seem to want a present from Black.

Oliver hugged the tiny boy gently, "I don't know why you don't want it but thank you."

Harry blushed, "I don't like the giver. I don't trust him much. I'd rather not have anything from him. If Draco, Remus or papa had given it to me I would have kept it."

Percy whistled, "That is an expensive gift to give away Harry." he may not fly but he'd heard Fred and George lamenting that they'd nearly kill for one when they were released though he knew they were happy to use the team's Nimbus 2001s. He wanted Oliver to get signed by Puddlemere United because that was what his boyfriend wanted. He wanted to be supportive.

The twins whistled, "Wow Ollie. Harry must really like you."

Draco stiffened.

Ron snorted, "That's how Potter wins his friends. He buys them expensive gifts. He bought the watches Fred and George where. What did he buy you Percy? Did he asked his papa to make you head boy? Or did he get you a job washing Lord Malfoy's feet?"

Percy pinched his nose between his thumb and forefinger, "Ron, please be quiet."

"Touched a nerve did I?"

"Detention. With Hagrid. Cleaning up after the Thestrals. For a week. You really need to learn to respect authority." choosing the detention Remus had threatened Ron with at the Welcome Banquet. He was about on his last nerve with his younger brother.

Ron sneered, "Turning your back on your family and associating with pure-blood supremacists and letting brainless Quidditch players use your body for their own pleasure. Some authority you are."

Fred snapped, "He's the Head Boy, he deserves respect."

"Did you suck cock to become Prefect too? Did you bully the original Gryffindor Prefect until he quit?"

Fred glared, "I did nothing of the sort. I would never cheat on my lover. It would destroy us both. I never asked to be prefect. I didn't want it but I accepted it. I've tried to be a decent one. I only was given it because Georgie and I have the highest marks in our year." in Fred's opinion, George deserved it more.

"You cheated."

Percy crossed his arms, "Impossible. They actually study and they've been applying themselves instead of goofing off all the time. They still have their pranks but they've started getting less detentions. I've never accused them of being stupid just lazy, that was before Harry came. They started applying themselves more, how could they not with their friends Hermione, Draco, Blaise and Harry had better marks?"

"Disturbing Breakfast against Ronald?"

Ron glowered at his head of house, "Family business."

"Really?" Remus raised an eyebrow, "If that was true then it wouldn't be loud enough for the all of the heads and the Headmistress to hear."

Draco was suspicious that Remus was exaggerating.

Blaise grumbled from the Slytherin table on the opposite side of the Great Hall, "We can hear him from here."

Trust the veela and werewolf's superior senses to hear rather unfortunate things.

"Really Ronald, you should take a page from your brothers book. Your marks are no where near as high."

Ron glared, "I'm not going to turn into a wizard who sucks cock to get ahead. Nor do I cheat or bully people into stepping down as Perfect."

"Actually, the previous Fifith Year Gryffindor prefect resigned because their father was transferred to America and they were changing schools. Brandon Micheals is now attending the Salem Witch Institute. The arrangements weren't finalized until after the beginning of the year. They should have made Fred a prefect in the beginning, he had the highest marks the last two years."

"But before their third year they were merely skating by," Percy interrupted him, "they are more responsible now. I am proud of them." Percy said with a smile, he's always suspected they were more lazy then unintelligent.

"Whatever."

Remus sighed, "Really, I am surprised Molly would let you behave like this. She was a Prefect, year ahead of me. I was sure they would make her Head Girl."

"Seriously, Stop acting like you care."

"Your actions are currently embarrassing your House."

"My House?" Ron sneered, "Gryffindor had never been my house."

"Because you weren't willing to make friends." Percy said quietly as Oliver squeezed his hand.

"I tried, but some person that thought they were too good for me." Ron glared, "I don't need pity or charity." he threw the tiny owl.

Hermione's eyes went wide, "Oh no." she moved to catch the poor thing, "How could you? It's a poor innocent creature. You're a monster."

"You are nothing but stuck up Mud-blood bitch." Ron yelled as he leapt at Hermione.

Percy looked on in horror, "Ron! Stop!"

Draco, Fred, George and even Harry stepped in front of Hermione within a heartbeat.

Blaise moved so fast across the Great Hall that no one but Remus saw him move.

Fred and George growled as one, "How dare you! She's a girl."

"She did nothing wrong." Draco hissed.

Gryffindor was in outrage.

Oliver reached up and grabbed Ron by the scruff of the neck, pulling him back from his wild punches at the wall of bent wizards who were defending their friend.

Remus cast incarcerous, ropes binding Ron's limbs, "that's enough. I'm calling your mother.

Ginny Weasley who spent most of the time in the shadows of their house started to sob.

Hermione smiled, trying to comfort the small red-headed girl and handing her the tiny owl, "Hush. It will be okay."

Severus had made his way to Remus' side when he saw Ron leap as if to hit Hermione and Harry, his son did a brave thing jumping in to protect her without thinking. It wasn't the first time, Harry had gone to save her from a troll too.

Harry glared, his body tense, angry, "You shouldn't try to hurt someone weaker then you. No hurting girls." he was gripping his wand tightly.

Draco let Remus and Severus guide the trussed up boy towards McGonagall as he turned Harry, "You were very brave."

Harry was still shaking with anger, "He's a big boy, he was going to hurt Hermione. He's not a nice person. I hope he gets punished. I can't believe he called her such a horrible thing."

Percy was shaking as he stood, "I…have to owl mum. I can't believe he did this. Mum will be so angry."

Fred and George were identical in their tone and mannerisms, "He made his choice. It's not your fault. We don't blame you. Even with Fred as a prefect and you as Head Boy it was impossible to make Ron behave."

Neville, one of the boys that Ron bullied sagged with relief, "I hope he doesn't come back to the dorm."

Seamus nodded, "He won't leave the younger boys alone. He seems to delight in making them cry."

Colin Creevey piped up from his side, "He couldn't make me cry."

Oliver followed Percy out, offering his silent moral support.

XoooooX

Severus strode into his rooms with Remus, "He can't hurt you anymore. We recommended expulsion to the School Governors. I don't see Lucius denying it, we sent interviews with various students who had been bullied by him.

Harry nodded, "He isn't a nice. I wouldn't have refused his friendship is he was nice and hadn't insulted Draco."

Draco smiled, "You are a very good person Adder."

Harry blushed, "I try."
