Claimed

Chapter 30

The Aye's Have It


Every single one of the Wizengamot members raised their hands, and shouted 'Aye' loudly. Their plum robes looked rather disgusting, and made them look comical - why they hadn't changed them in all the years of working no one knew. They lowered their arms, and watched Dumbledore look around the room despairingly. It seemed he was finally loosing his cool, as a small growl left his "The Aye's have it," said Minister Bones.

Severus handed over the bottle, as much as he liked to imagine it as poison it wasn't. No all that would do was force Dumbledore to reveal all the poisonous things he had done. He just wanted to see how they reacted to the fact he lied, that he hadn't defeated Voldemort. He didn't want to listen to him naming every single one of his victims. The poor people had been thought enough, without their names being mentioned.

It was a good thing this was a closed meeting, no member of the public or paper was allowed in. Closed court.

"Who are you?" asked Bones once the Veritaserum was administered, which was easy as Dumbledore was bound to the chair in which he sat.

"Albus Dumbledore,"

"Are you guilty of the crimes you have been arrested for?"

"Yes,"

And the questioned continued each person he had harmed, being named, each crime he had committed explored at length. Even if it turned their stomach they had to learn absolutely everything they could. The amount of people he had hurt left them all aghast. Harry had not been mentioned, because he hadn't been a student when it happened, and he also hadn't been at Hogwarts, and the wording of it had been wrong. She had asked who he had hurt at Hogwarts, which meant there could be more people. He had hurt around thirty students a year, since he became a teacher, not as Headmaster. They had been right; Tom Riddle had been abused by Dumbledore. Each crime Voldemort was accused off (murdering families) it had been Dumbledore. For one reason or another, that they remembered, or he suspected they did, they were killed along with their families.

"Who killed Voldemort?" asked Minister Bones.

"Harry Potter,"

"No!" cried a few various voices looking stunned, their eyes wide. Now the full ramifications of their actions crashing down upon them.

"I think we've heard enough," said Minister Bones. Truthfully she just wanted to go home, be sick, have a bath and sleep for a year.

There was Auror's that they hadn't been able to find, that had been in Dumbledore's pocket. The others had all been found. Shacklebolt, Amvery, Podmore and Dawlish were seemingly gone. They also couldn't find Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley, it was rather daunting. The fact they were Order members, led her to believe Dumbledore was hiding them. He said he wasn't under Veritaserum though, so that blew that belief straight out of the window.

"Me too," murmured Harry quietly, he just wanted to go back to the Castle, of course only Severus had heard what Harry said.

"Let's just go then," said Severus, he wasn't going to force Harry to stay if he didn't want to. Maybe Harry just wanted to get on with his life, that bringing Dumbledore down was enough.

Unfortunately someone recognized him.

"Harry Potter!" she shouted, rushing forward apologizing and sobbing that she knew 'all along' that he had defeated Voldemort.

"Back off, before I blast you through this wall," sneered Severus viciously.

"Did you just threaten me?" gaped the woman looking very angry.

"I'll do more than threaten," said Severus showing his teeth.

Slinking back she said "I knew you defeated Voldemort…I just knew it, please forgive me for not speaking up."

"In your dreams, I'm not here to forgive you…I was here to make sure Dumbledore went down." said Harry glaring at everyone, as one they flinched from his green eyed glare. Madam Bones just stared at the floor, feeling rather awkward. She had felt sorry for him, but had indeed stood by and done nothing. Despite having a niece the same age, and indeed not expecting her to defeat Voldemort.

"I'm not going to be your scapegoat anymore, I'm though pleasing others." said Harry a sneer curling his lips.


"Are they here?" asked Severus.

"Yes, Dungeon two like you requested," stated Derek.

"Excellent, now I just need to wait on…" he didn't get a chance to finish.

"Trey told me to give you these," said Derek handing over the box. "That he would be back tomorrow to help."

"Brilliant," said Severus nodding his head.

"Are you going to tell me what you're planning?" asked Harry curiously.

"Trey came from a family line that … lets just say were into all kinds of things. He found these," said Severus opening the box. "It will bind their magic, and stop them hurting others; in fact they won't be able to think about it without it hurting…sort of like an electric current flowing through them. Once Trey is done, they won't be able to leave the Castle or wherever I assign them."

Harry blinked in shock "You want to keep them here?"

"If you prefer I'll ask Trey to take them to Alaska his vacation home?" suggested Severus.

"I'm not sure which one I like best," laughed Harry bitterly.

"Do not worry, you will never have to see them…Dizzy will be in charge of them…and she will know exactly what they've done and why they are here," replied Severus evilly, he knew how much his house elves loved Harry.

Harry just nodded that sounded good to him.


"Who the hell are you?" snarled Ron, he had no magic his wand had been removed and he had been dumped in here.

"I think you know you have been spying around my Castle for the past few months." sneered Severus smirking wryly. "Would you like to help Harry?" he asked as his mate came out of the shadows.

"Of course," said Harry, grabbing three of the magical binding pieces.

He used a spell that would leave Hermione feeling weak, but awake and aware of what he was doing to her. He wanted her to be awake and aware of her fate. She would rue the day she had decided to mess with him. He placed the choker around the neck and the bracelet around her wrists. He was surprised to see them blend in, as if they had never been there.

"They come back on command, if you have the appropriate spell," said Severus as if he could read what was on Harry's mind.

"Ah," said Harry, removing the spell he had used on Hermione and stepped away.

"What the hell did you do to me?" she shrieked backing away, trying to find the invisible restraints.

"Bound your magic," said Harry.

Hermione glared at him, raising her hands as though she wanted to strangle him. Only to find herself writhing in pain, rolling back and forth across the dungeons'. Harry watched the whole thing a curious look on his face. Ron did the smart thing and just stayed quiet, crawling over to Hermione to try and 'comfort her'.

"I hope you enjoy your new accommodation," said Severus "For as long as you live, for your actions against my mate…its will be all you know."

Together he and Harry left before they could reply. He didn't want to run the risk of them saying something to Harry that made him sad. He just wanted to enjoy this night with him, their revenge was practically complete.


ALBUS DUMBLEDORE SENTENCED TO DEMENTOR'S KISS

"The newspaper really has improved hasn't it?" smirked Harry wryly, it had been a week since his trial. It had taken them a week of long time consideration to come up with what they wanted.

"They weren't going to be able to do anything but," said Severus quietly.

"Yeah, now excuse me, we have someone to torment," grinned Fred, yes he knew about Ron. The thing was the twins hadn't been as close to their family as everyone seemed to think. They had always been dismissed, brushed aside, or yelled at really. It was no wonder the twins weren't as close as they seemed to the family. They were tormenting Ron something awful, making extra big messes for him to clean up. They approved wholeheartedly with the treatment he was getting dished out.

Hermione was pretty much the same, but she was cleaning up the library, so close to book yet unable to read them. She was probably the one suffering the most out of that deal, Hermione had never changed she still loved learning above all else. Now she had a pair of basic jogging trousers, and a top. Ron wore the same, and they slept in it as well, if they got to sleep at all that was.

"Where's Tonks?" asked Harry.

"Visiting Remus," said Luna.

Severus nodded "She hasn't left his side, if I didn't know any better I'd say they had something going on before…he was sent to Azkaban."

"I wouldn't know, they didn't talk to me much," sighed Harry.

"That is of no consequence now Harry, you have me." said Severus soothingly.

Harry just smiled, it was true, he did have Severus nothing could take him away.

The world was safe and Harry was happy - suddenly he didn't care about his past - just his future and for once it wasn't full of darkness.
