Chapter 2- Surprises

A million thoughts were swirling round Harry's head as he slowly walked to the Great Hall hand in hand with Ginny. His thoughts were focusing on what to do next? I completed my destiny, what do I do now. Ginny looked at Harry concerned, he hadn't spoken much and she wanted to know what had happened last year whilst they were on the run but then if he told her about the run, Ginny knew that Harry would want to know about her year and it wasn't the best.

"Ginny, Ginny, earth to Ginny" Ginny head Harry say she turned her head and look at him. "Ginny, are you ok?"

"What? oh yeah, I'm fine… just thinking." Ginny said quietly

"What are you thinking about?" Harry asked concerned

"Thinking about… last year… yesterday… Remus… Tonks … Colin… Sirius… your parents… Fred… everyone."

"Oh, right…um…" Harry said awkwardly.

"Hey…Harry would you mind …er… tellingmeaboutlastyear?"

"Say the last bit slower please Gin"

"Would you mind telling me about last year?"

"Ok, yeah, sure."

Both resumed their thinking, they were at the back of the Great Hall by the big doors, when Harry stopped and whispered to Ginny "You're the last thing, I thought of when I was in the Forbidden Forest facing Voldemort, I love you more than words can say."

Ginny was looking at Harry staring into his bright emerald eyes, when he finished she didn't hesitate, she just jumped into his arms and kissed him, right there, right then without even realising that they were in the Great Hall with the about 1,000 people watching them. They didn't realise until people started cheering and wolf-whistling and then they heard the click of the camera's that's when they separated and went to sit down with the Weasleys'.

"That was quite a show you put on there, wasn't it?" Someone commented, Harry and Ginny looked at George who shook his head a pointed to… Percy.

A surprised Harry and Ginny sat down and started helping themselves to food, Harry who hadn't eaten a proper meal in days, piled food on his plate so high it would rival Ron. The Weasley family looked solemn and depressed. Mrs Weasley still had tear tracks down her face, when suddenly someone started laughing quite loudly as well. Everyone turned their heads to see where it was coming from and they were most surprised when they saw that the noise was coming from George- who they had expected to be moping about and ignoring everyone.

"George, why are you laughing?" Hermione asked him gently.

"Because it's funny!"

"What's funny mate?" Ron asked.

"Well I'm thinking of what is going to happen when you see the joke me and Fred will play."

"Georgie, honey, Fr…Fr…" Mrs Weasley took a deep breath "He's gone honey."

"Yes, I know that mum, but you didn't think that Fred would leave this life without playing a joke know did you."

"Oh of course not, he wouldn't do that"

After Harry finished his breakfast, he stood up and addressed the people in the Great Hall. He projected his voice using the sonorous charm

"First off, I want to thank you all, every single one of you, even those who can't be here. You all helped me out there and I am so grateful, without you, I wouldn't have been able to succeed so I am not the hero, you are the hero thank you. Second off could I please speak to Kinsley Shacklebolt, Professors McGonagall, Filtwick, Slughorn, Sprout, Madam Pomfrey, Hagrid, Mr and Mrs Weasley, Bill and Fleur Weasley, Charlie Weasley, Percy Weasley, George Weasley, Ron Weasley, Ginny Weasley, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, Andromeda Tonks in the Headmasters office in 1 hour please? Right now could I speak to Mr Lucius Malfoy, Mrs Narcissa Malfoy and Mr Draco Malfoy?"

"Mr Potter, the Malfoy's are down in the dungeons in transfigured prison cells. Is it urgent to speak to them?"

"Yes, it is urgent."

"May I ask why?"

"Mrs Malfoy, Professor, saved my life when I went to Voldemort- I will explain later but now please will someone show me where in the dungeons they are seeing as I have never been to that part of the castle."

"Of course. Mr Filch. Please take Mr Harry Potter down to the holding cells in the dungeon to speak to the Malfoy's."

"Thank you Professor, I will see you later in the Headmasters office at 11 o'clock exactly."

Harry muttered the counter charm Quietus and followed Mr Filch out of the Great Hall thinking about what he was going to say to the Malfoy's.

"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS HE THINKING, WANTING TO SPEAK TO DEATH EATERS ESPECIALLY MALFOY, I CAN'T BELIEVE HIM. HE HAS GOT NERVE. HARRY POTTER WANTS TO SPEAK TO DEATH EATERS WHAT IS HE GOING TO SAY TO THAT SCUM, I HATE HARRY POTTER SO FUCKING MUCH. FIRST OF THE BLOODY GIT KISSES MY SISTER IN FRONT OF ME AND THEN AGAIN IN FRONT OF THE ENTIRE GREAT HALL, NEXT HE DOESN'T EVEN APOLOGISE OR LOOK EMBARRASED FOR IT, NOT EVEN A WORD OF THANKS FOR WHAT WE SACRIFICED SO HE COULD LIVE. NOW HE HAS GONE TO TALK TO BLODDY MOTHER-FUCKING DEATH EATERS. I. CANT. BELIEVE. THAT. GIT. HE HAS CROSSED THE LINE."

"RONALD WEASLEY, SIT YOUR SORRY ARSE ON THAT SEAT AND LISTEN TO ME. NOW. YES FRED HAS DIED AND WE LOST HIM. YES I KNOW THAT AND I AM UPSET TO…

"YOU DON'T LOOK THAT UPSET YOUR SNOGGING YOU NEW BOYFRIEND. You little slut." Ron interrupted and even though he muttered the last bit. Ginny still heard him.

"RONALD BILLIUS WEASLEY. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAD THE NERVE TO SAY THAT. I LOVE HARRY AND HE LOVES ME. HARRY IS A NOBLE PRAT AND WE ALL KNOW THAT DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH HE HAS LOST. YES WE LOST FRED BUT HARRY LOST HIS MOTHER, FATHER, GRANDPARENTS, CEDRIC, SIRIUS, DUMBLEDORE, REMUS, TONKS, AND FRED AS WELL. HE HAD NOW SIBLINGS AND EVEN IF HE DID OR IF HE WAS ABOUT TO HE LOST THEM TOO. COULD YOU LIVE WITHOUT YOUR FAMILY, COULD YOU LIVE IF MUM, DAD, BILL, CHARLIE, PERCY, GEORGE, ME AND EVEN AUNT MURIEL DIED. COULD YOU LIVE IF EVERYONE WHO EVER LOVED YOU LOST THEIR LIFE TO SOME PYSCOPATH POWER PRAT AND HIS EVIL LITTLE MINIONS. YOU SAW VOLDEMORT, RON, YOU KNOW HOW EVIL HE IS. IMAGINE HAVING THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD ON SHOULDERS, TRYING TO PROTECT THE WORLD FROM THIS PYSCOPATH PROWER PRAT AND HIS MINIONS KNOWING THAT HE IS TRYING THE KILL YOU. IMAGINE HOW THAT MUST FEEL KNOWING THAT SOMEDAY YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE THE ONE WHO DEFEATS HIM. IMAGINE THAT FROM BEFORE YOU WERE BORN, HAVING BLOODY FUCKING VOLDMORT TRYING TO KILL YOU. TRY LIVING AS HARRY FOR ONE DAY, JUST ONE DAY AND YOU WILL SEE HOW HARD IT REALLY IS. AND AS FOR CALLING ME A SLUT, RON I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT I NEVER DATED ANYONE LAST YEAR AND I WOULDN'T, I COULDN'T, BOYS WOULD ASK ME OUT, I SAID NO. DO YOU KNOW WHY? NO YOU DON'T. I WAS TOO BUSY THINKING OF MY EX-BOYFRIEND WHO WAS OUT ON A DEATH HUNT WITH MY BEST FRIEND AND BROTHER. I WAS TO FOCUSED ON WANTING TO KNOW WHETHER MY BEST FRIEND, MY BROTHER AND THE LOVE OF MY LIFE WERE OK OR ALIVE. YOU WERE LIVING LIKE THAT AS WELL WEREN'T YOU? WORRIED ABOUT MUM, DAD, GEORGE, BILL, CHARLIE, FRED, ME, you don't have to worry anymore Harry took that worry away. Now how do you feel?"

Ron had shrank back into his seat as soon as Ginny started her second wave of anger now her felt really bad about what he had said about Harry because what Ginny had said was true and he knew better than to try and live for just a day as Harry James Potter.

"LANGUAGE RONALD, GINEVRA. I WISH TO SPEAK TO YOU LATER RONALD ABOUT YOUR ACTIONS TOWARDS YOUR SUPPOSED BEST FRIEND."

Meanwhile, Harry was in the dungeons with the Malfoy's. The Malfoy's weren't allowed their wands so Harry was safe.

"Mrs Malfoy…"

"Please call me, Narcissa Black, I am no longer a Malfoy as of last Christmas - I divorced Lucius when he started to try and make me a sex weapon and he abused me."

"Ms Black, I would like to thank you for saving my life out there when Voldemort had cast the Avada Kedavra at me the first time. Through saving my life you have saved the life of millions. I will try to get you removed from this holding cell."

"Thank you Mr Potter, how can you be so nice to those who do not deserve it?" Ms Black said.

"That is ok Ms Black, call me Harry. I can be nice to those who do not deserve because I believe that no one is born evil. We all have good and bad in us and it is the part we act on which makes us who we really are. Ms Black, that is what I was once told by a smart Black."

"Well if I can call you Harry, you can call me Narcissa or Aunt Cissy as I should have been. You are right Sirius was quite smart but he even when he didn't act it he still had a way with words."

"Narcissa, may I ask why you would have been my Aunt Cissy?

"I had three siblings Bellatrix, Andromeda as you know. Anyway my grandfather Pollux Black had three siblings Cassiopeia, Marius and Dorea. Now Dorea married a man called Charlus… Charlus Potter he had a son James Potter and a daughter Violetta who married… Sirius… she loved him and she was shortly murdered after he was placed in Azkaban. So yeah I am your aunt… I was also very good friends with your mother, secretly of course only because if the Dark Lord found out that I was best friends with a muggle-born witch I would have been killed and I had a duty as a mother to look after my son. I wanted so much to find you and look after you as my own as a Godmother and Aunt it was my duty- but I knew you would be safer if I let you go to the Dursleys, Harry I know they were horrid to you- every now and then I would pop in and see you- trust me if I had taken you in and looked after you we both would have been dead a long time ago."

"Thank you very much… Aunt Cissy. As you were good friends with my parents would you care to tell me about them …sometime maybe? Hopefully I can keep you out of Azkaban."

"Harry… my dear… I have your parents will… your mother gave them to me to look after, I was supposed to take them to the Wizengamot and present the information that would free my cousin but I couldn't… that was when Lucius started to treat me as a sex weapon and when he started his abuse. I would have taken it to the Wizengamot and freed Sirius but I was trapped I couldn't do anything to help and I had to watch as Lucius warped my son… my son into being a death eater and the way he spoke about you, Harry, Lily and James. I couldn't get out to help as much as I wanted to and then when Lucius told me he was going to the Department of Mysteries to get Harry's prophecy to give to V…Vol…Voldemort, when he came back, he had my dreadful sister with him, Bellatrix, and she had the same smug smile that she had after she tortured Frank and Alice Longbottom, I knew something had happened. Then she started singing, it was a frightful sound, I killed Sirius Black I then had two options to be a Death Eater's wife and commit crimes or divorce Lucius and become a Black at that point I was too weak to leave Lucius side and it was where I heard all about my Godson and Nephew- both you. When I divorce Lucius at Christmas I knew I was crossing rough ground but I wanted to help you- no one suspected me- I stayed within Voldemort's inner circle and apparated into Malfoy manor when I heard you were caught by snatchers. I sent Dobby to help you, and I wouldn't leave Hermione on her own with Bellatrix- I disillusioned myself, stood and watched- when I thought Bellatrix was about to do harm- real harm- to Hermione I called Dobby. That was the last I saw of you until the forest and when you were there, I knew you weren't dead because I would feel it so I volunteered myself to see if you were actually alive and ask you where Draco was then I lied to Voldemort to protect you. You see Harry James Potter, my nephew and godson, I love you."

"I love you too Aunt Cissy, thank you for all you have done. He leant over and gave her a hug "Now Mr Lucius Malfoy, I have nothing to say to you except this, why did you abuse sexually abuse your wife, why did you do Voldemort's biding all these years and what made you want to kill?."

"I have nothing to say to you, filthy mudblood loving half blood."

"Fine… Ok Mr Malfoy." Harry said with coldly whilst casting a Patronus. "Mr Lucius Malfoy, Aurors Dawlish, Robards and Proudfoot will take you to Azkaban prison. You will wait there until you attend your trial on the 27th May 1998. The charges are as follows several counts of murder, rape, torture, assisting Lord Voldemort in the reopening of the chamber of secrets whilst endangering children's lives, child abuse, abuse, being a known Death Eater with the Dark Mark and casting the Imperius and Cruciatus curse on numerous occasions. Mr Malfoy, you are hereby going to be taken to Azkaban to await your trial on 27th May at precisely 11:00, do wish there to be any attendees and/or witnesses for defence?"

"No, I am innocent, I will fight my own case and as for any attendees I only wish my son and Narcissa to be there they will also be my witnesses for defence."

"Or prosecution" Narcissa muttered under her breath, unheard by Lucius.

"Ok Mr Malfoy, thank you for your input. As this a professional business, Ms Narcissa Black do wish to attend Mr Lucius Malfoy's trial as a witness for defence?"

"I do not wish to attend the trial as a witness for defence but Mr Potter, for prosecution I will be a witness."

"Narcissa as soon as I am out of Azkaban, I will find you, rape you, torture you, kill you and everyone will think of me as the poor upset husband." Lucius said venomously.

"Let's add threatening to rape, kill and torture to the list of charges, Mr Malfoy that alone is 20 years in Azkaban, the way you're going you might just have the Dementors' Kiss."

"Auror Dawlish, here to report to Mr Potter and take Mr Lucius Malfoy to Azkaban, ordered by Minister for Magic Kinsley Shacklebolt and Harry Potter."

"Head Auror Robards, here to report to Mr Potter and take Mr Lucius Malfoy to Azkaban, ordered by Minister for Magic Kinsley Shacklebolt and Harry Potter."

"Auror Proudfoot, here to report to Mr Potter and take Mr Lucius Malfoy to Azkaban, ordered by Minister for Magic Kinsley Shacklebolt and Harry Potter."

"Thank you, Aurors Dawlish, Robards and Proudfoot. Will you wait a moment will I interrogate Mr Draco Malfoy and we can then see if he needs to be taken to Azkaban prison as well. Proudfoot can you please ask Kinsley if I can set Ms Narcissa Black free, I have heard her testimony, used Legilimency and Veritaserum to interrogate and her that backs up her testimony, she is innocent?"

"Of course Mr Potter, I will be just a moment."

"Thank you, Mr Draco Malfoy, please present your left arm and pull your selves up."

Harry watched carefully as Draco stuck out his left arm and slowly pulled his sleeve up there it was on his pale skin. He thought it was enough information to place Draco directly in Azkaban but we must have a trial.

"Mr Draco Malfoy, you have the Dark Mark on your left arm, did you have it placed there voluntarily and consciously?"

"No I was forced to be marked."

"Who forced you?"

"Mr Lucius Malfoy, Mrs Bellatrix Lestrange, Mr Fenrir Greyback and Mr Peter Pettigrew."

"Why did the following force you to Mr Lucius Malfoy, Mrs Bellatrix Lestrange, Mr Fenrir Greyback and Mr Peter Pettigrew?"

"Mr Lucius Malfoy because he wanted to redeem the family name, Mrs Bellatrix Lestrange because she wanted Voldemort to have more supporters, I don't know why Mr Fenrir Greyback wanted me to and Mr Peter Pettigrew because he thought Voldemort would think better of him if her were able to get him more Death Eaters."

"Ok Mr Draco Malfoy, seeing as you didn't take the Dark Mark voluntarily we will still hold a formal trial but Aurors Dawlish and Robards will take you to the Ministry Holding Cells."

"Mr Potter, Minister for Magic Kinsley Shacklebolt said that he will order Ms Narcissa Blacks' immediate release. She will placed under house arrest for 3 months at 12 Grimmauld Place. Ms Narcissa Black will be monitored by members of the Order of the Phoenix for the 3 months we will monitor who enters and exits the house, Floo transport and apparition into the wards. Ms Narcissa Black is allowed a wand, should she leave the house she will be placed in Azkaban prison for 2 months. Mr Potter and Ms Black do you accept these terms?"

"I do."

"I do."

"Therefore on the 6th of May Ms Black will be taken to 12 Grimmauld Place by Mr Kinsley Shacklebolt and Mr Harry Potter. Ms Black may be released. Mr Potter we will take Mr Lucius Malfoy and Mr Draco Malfoy to their holding cells. Is that satisfactory, sir?"

"That is fine, thank you Aurors Proudfoot, Robards and Dawlish. Ms Black will you follow me?"

"Of course, Mr Potter."

"Aunt Cissy, I wish for you to come up to the Headmasters office with me now, where I will be explaining what I have been doing over the past year."

"Of course, my boy."

Harry and Narcissa walked from the dungeons all the way to the Headmasters office, talking about the simplest of things, just getting to know each other better. Harry said the password to the gargoyle "Victory." They climbed the stairs Harry opened the door and walked in, Narcissa followed. As Harry anticipated gasps of shock and protests filled the rooms as soon as they saw her face.

"SILENCE" Harry shouted. He waited until they calmed down and then started to talk "I have invited Ms Narcissa Black because I wish for her to know what we were doing last year. Now before you all protest I think you deserve a reason why. Narcissa Black has been tortured and sexually abused by Lucius Malfoy over the past years, she has never been a death eater, and she never committed any crimes. I have been speaking to her I heard her testimony, used Legilimency and Veritaserum to determine if what she said was true and it was. Also she is my only family member left; Aunt Cissy is in fact my aunt, godmother and my late mothers' best friend. Therefore I wish for her to know. Does anyone disagree, if you do please leave?" No one moved so Harry continued. "I will show you what happened last year using a Pensive with a projection charm so you can all see, I will not keep you here until next year, I have shrunk it down so only the important parts of what happened are involved and we will start from the beginning when Tom first learnt about Horcrux… " That is as far as Harry got because Professor Slughorn interrupted.

"Harry, my boy, I wish for that not to be seen I think it is highly unnecessary to see."

"Professor Slughorn, it is necessary for that to be seen, I can assure you that no one will judge you. As I was saying we will start from when Tom learnt about the Horcruxes and finish when the last one was destroyed. I have attained memories from Ron and Hermione as well. Please sit back, relax and watch."

They stayed for the next two hours watching everything the three had been through, they watched Harry's memories of his parents' death and his time at Hogwarts right the way through until the last battle. At the end of it, Molly, Andromeda, Narcissa, Ginny and Fleur were in tears. Narcissa got up from her seat and ran over to Harry and trapped him in a bone crashing hug. Even though she was still crying she managed to choke out "Harry, my son, I am so proud of you everything you have been through. I am sorry I was not able to help." Harry was whispering comforting words into his Aunts' ear and hugging her back. Ginny could see how happy Harry was that he had someone who loved and cared for him. She caught his eye and smiled, he smiled right back at her. When Narcissa released Harry, Ginny ran over and kissed him on the lips for several moments ignoring the protests from her brothers, she then gripped tightly to his hand and let Narcissa fuss over. Molly looked disappointed that some other women was getting to mother the boy she wanted to be her son but she was pleased that Harry was getting mothered by someone who was not overly shared and by the person who should have bought him up after Lily died.

Professor McGonagall cleared her throat and said "Well, Harry, I am proud of you and was really torn up when Voldemort said you were dead. Well done! But as you have missed a year of schooling I think you should come back next year for one more year to do your NEWTS or you can try and get a job without NEWTS, I'm sure Potter and Weasley you will be able to get a job as Aurors with the experience you have but it might be wise to try and get your NEWTS. Hermione I am already counting on my Head Girl coming back but if you don't want to that is fine."

"Oh no, Professor I am coming back, definitely I don't not want to get a job. Thank you Professor so much. Ron, Harry we are coming back to Hogwarts" She turned around and saw their sceptical faces and her face fell. "We are, aren't we?"

"Um…Well…I'm not sure… Mione… I mean I might come back and all but I'm not sure if I could face it knowing that this was where pretty much everyone died."

"Yeah me too… Mione… don't think I could be in the place where F…Fr…he died everyday but then I can't leave you… Oh I don't know. I will think about it and see."
