Chapter Thirty-Five
ARTHUR'S POV
I wake to a tapping on the window. I go over to the window and take the letter from the owl. I notice the Gringotts seal right away. I look towards the bed and see that Molly isn't there. I open the envelope and read the note from Griphook..
I smile and send a patronus to my five oldest sons. I tell them to gather anything they want to keep and to meet me at the twins' shop in ten minutes. I get dressed. I quickly pack anything I want to take with me and shrink it before putting it in my pocket. I go downstairs and see Molly is cooking breakfast.
Ron and Ginny come down. We all sit down at the table and start eating. "I have to go into work this morning, Molly. It seems someone thought it would be okay to make a muggle chainsaw move by itself and to go after people. I swear these spells against muggles just keep getting more dangerous with every day that goes by."
Molly smiles and says, "Okay, dear. Please be careful though."
I nod and finish breakfast. I apparate to the twins' shop and see the boys there. "Griphook has sent us a portkey that will take us to Harry. Everyone grab on."
We all grab onto the portkey, and I say, "Sanctuary."
HARRY'S POV
I go to Viktor's room and knock. The door is opened, and I see the whole Krum family inside. I smile and say, "I will be taking you down to the dining room, so you don't get lost."
Viktor smiles and says, "Thanks, Harry."
Everyone follows me to the dining room. I pause outside the doors. "Vik, your mate will be here. Try not to scare him."
I open the door, and we all go in. I notice the second that Viktor sees Blaise. He stops as soon as Blaise looks up into his eyes. I clear my throat and brake Viktor out of his trance. We all sit down, and the house elves bring in the food.
We start to eat. I say, "The Weasleys except Molly, Ron and Ginny will probably be here today. I also feel like the Delacours will come today as well. Also, I will be meeting with the leaders of the Batling Coven, the Howell pack and the elf community tomorrow."
I look at Hermione. "Herm, would you mind making copies of everything for the leaders? I would need three copies of everything."
Hermione says, "You know I wouldn't mind."
I smile at her and look at my mate. "Fenrir, I would like for you to be at the meeting."
Fenrir smiles at me and nods. After breakfast, I make my way towards my study. I am half-way there when I feel the wards alert me to someone arriving. I go to the receiving room. I find the Delacour family and the Weasleys waiting for me.
I say, "Fleur, it is so good to see you again. I'm happy your family decided to come."
Fleur smiles and says, "I was so happy when your letter came, Harry."
I smile and nod. I turn to the Weasleys. "Arthur, I'm happy you decided to come."
Arthur smiles and says, "Once I read what they had done to my sons and myself I couldn't stay."
I nod and look at Bill. "Bill, this is your mate Fleur Delacour."
The two look at each other and smile. "I had rooms prepared for all of you. I will discuss any changes I'm making in the wizarding world at lunch and dinner. In the mean time, I have to get ready for a meeting I will be having tomorrow. You may explore the castle and the grounds around it. Mipsy!"
A house elf appears. "You called, Master Harry."
I sigh. I don't know how many times I've told the elves to call me Harry. "Please show the Weasleys and Delacours to their rooms."
Mipsy nods, and I walk to my study. Ten minutes later, Hermione walks in. "Harry, have you thought about what laws you want to change first?"
"Yes. I want to change the creature laws first. Also I want to bring back our holidays. Halloween needs to be known as Samhain again. Yule is Christmastime. We also need to bring back Imbolic, Ostara, Beltane, Litha, Lammas and the Feast of Mabon."
Hermione smiles and nods. "Have you thought of any creature laws you want to get rid of or push through?"
I nod. "I've looked over the laws we have so far in the wizarding world for magical creatures. They are too restrictive. I've decided I want to get rid of all the creature laws so far and start from scratch. It's one of the reasons I wanted to meet the leaders of magical creatures before the headmaster/headmistresses. I would like to start integrating magical creatures into school. I only have one law so far for magical creatures."
I pul out the parchment and hand it to Hermione. She reads over it and smiles at me. "This is good, Harry."
"Thanks, Herm. Do you think everyone else would be okay with it?"
Hermione nods and says, "I don't see why they wouldn't be. Most of us are magical creatures or the mates to magical creatures."
"I also want to start referring to them as magical races instead of magical creatures."
The door opens, and Fenrir walks in. "It's time for lunch, guys. You can finish discussing everything afterwards."
Hermione and I follow Fenrir to the dining room.
Chapter Thirty-Six
HARRY'S POV
During lunch I talk to everyone about the rules we want to put in place at school so magical creatures can attend. "I would like for us to figure out some rules for the magical creatures, so they can attend schools. I want you to think really hard and give me some ideas. If you have to, write them down and give me the paper when you are done. I need to have at least an example of the rules before my meeting tomorrow with the leaders."
Everyone nods and finishes their meals. Hermione follows me to my study. I sit on my seat and look at her. "Mione, do you really think I can do this?"
She smiles at me. "I know you can. Just remember, you are not doing this alone. We are all here to help you."
I nod and smile. "Thanks."
I suddenly think of something. "Hey. Do you think Dumbledore was paying other people to watch me?"
She frowns. "It's possible. We will have to come up with a way to test it."
I sigh. "There is so much work to do. Dumbledore has really messed up the education of Hogwarts, and he has basically brainwashed all of Britain to believe that all magical creatures are dark."
"We will fix this, Harry."
"I know. It just feels like so much to do."
"Let's talk about your meeting tomorrow with the leaders of the Vampire Coven, the Werewolf Pack and the Elf Community. I have a packet of everything you want to change for each of the leaders to read. The only thing I don't have is the rules they would need to follow or the laws you want to establish."
I nod. "I should be able to get that done by tonight. That way you can add them to the packet."
Hermione nods and leaves. I start to work on the rules that the magical creatures will have to follow in school. I have two rules written down when there is a knock on my study door. "Come in."
Fenrir walks in and hands me a piece of parchment. "This is all the rules we can come up with so far."
"Thanks."
He leaves, and I add the other rules to my list. When I can't think of any more rules, I look at my list.
Rules for Magical Creatures Attending Hogwarts:
All werewolves will take the Wolfsbane potion on the full moon nights.
All werewolves will be somewhere safe on the nights of the full moons.
No werewolf will purposely bite someone.
No vampire will take blood from a student/teacher (unless in emergencies where it is needed *only teachers*).
Blood will be provided for all vampires and any other creatures who require it.
Leprechauns will not bring alcohol to school.
No fighting between races.
No picking on someone for their race or house.
Humanoid dragons will not fly in hallways. (No other dragons are allowed at school unless they are familiars.)
Goblins will not use their weapons on people. (Unless in a suitable class.)
Any creature that finds their mate or mates must tell an adult immediately.
I nod in acknowledgement of having accomplished something already. I then start to work on the laws I want to pass.
Laws for Magical Creatures:
All magical creatures will be referred to as magical races.
All magical races will receive an education.
All magical races are allowed jobs.
All magical races are allowed to marry/mate and have children.
No one is allowed on a magical races territory without permission.
No magical race is considered Dark.
I look over my list and nod. "Mipsy!"
Mipsy appears. "You called, Master Harry?"
I hand her the two parchments. "Please take these to Hermione. She will know what to do with them."
Mipsy nods and disappears.
Chapter Thirty-Seven
HARRY'S POV
After Mipsy left, I started to think about what all I needed to do. I still needed to find teachers for the new classes plus teachers to help the existing teachers teach their classes. After a while, there is a knock on my study door. I say, "Come in."
The door opens and Hermione walks in. "Harry, I've made three copies of evertything for the leaders. Did you also need me to make copies for the Headmasters/Headmistresses of the schools?"
I nod. "Yeah. I have to meet with them the day after tomorrow. I wanted to meet the leaders first. Can you make three more copies for the meeting with the leaders? I did some research. Did you know that Hogwarts is the only magical school that doesn't accept other magical races?"
Hermione thought for a moment. "If that's the case then I can't blame the other magical races for never coming here. Magical Britain is so prejudice against anyone that isn't a witch/wizard."
I nod in agreement. "I just hope I don't mess up at the meeting with the leaders. If we could get the actual creatures themselves to teach the classes about them, we won't have people getting wrong information."
Hermione nods. We continue to talk about the classes that I want to add and how to get other teachers. Hermione suggested that I write to Nicholas Flamel and his wife about the Alcemy positions. We started to get hungry, so we headed down to dinner. Fenrir asks, "Are you ready for tomorrow, Harry?"
I nod and sit down. "I would like Hermione and Fenrir to go with me tomorrow. Lucius has already agreed to go."
Hermione smiles at me and nods. "Of course I'll go with you, Harry. I told you that I would stand by you in everything you do."
Fenrir comes up behind me and hugs me. "Of course I'll go with you. You are my mate."
THE NEXT DAY
We arrive at The Leaky Cauldron thirty minutes before the meeting time. I have Hermione go up to Tom to ask for a meeting room and some refreshments. Hermione comes back with a room key and says, "Tom said to go to the meeting room and that he will bring the refrshments when they were ready."
I nod, and we all go to the meeting room. Once we reahc the room, we all go in and sit down. As we wait, my nerves begin to get the best of me. I start to fidget and keep going over the material I want to show the leaders. I even brought a copy of my inheritance test.
There was a knock on the door, and Hermione got up to answer it. It was Tom with the refreshments. After he left, I sigh in relief. "I'm so worried, Herms. What if they don't believe me? What if they don't like the changes?"
Hermione smiled reassuringly at me and takes my hands into hers. "Don't worry, Harry. If they weren't interested in the changes you want to make, they wouldn't have agreed to meet you."
I nod and bite my lip. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I look at Fenrir pleadingly, and he nods. He walks over to the door and opens it. There is three people standing there. Fenrir asks, "Can I help you?"
The only woman of the group says, "We were told to meet Harry Potter here."
Fenrir beckons them in, and I stand to greet them. "Hello, I'm Lord Harry Potter-Pervell-Gryffindor-Slytherin-Ravenclaw-Hufflepuff-Le Fay-Emyr. You may call me Harry."
One man had black robes on. His hair was a light brown, and he had chocolate brown eyes. He was slighty pale, and he stood at about 5'10". "Hello, Harry. I am Vincent Batling of the Batling Vampire Coven."
The other man had green robes on. His hair was a sandy blonde, and he had hazel eyes. He was very muscular and stood at 6'2". "I am Bardou Howell of the Howell Pack."
The woman had maroon robes on. She had silver hair and had light blue eyes. She stood at 5'6" and looked very elegant. "I'm Rania Lyre of the Lyre Elf Community."
I nod and smile. "Let me introduce you to my companions. The man who opened the door is Fenrir Grayback, and he is my mate. The woman is Hermione Granger, and she is my oldest friend. The blonde is Lucius Malfoy, and he is helping me to accomplish my dreams. Hermione and him are mates as well. Please have a seat."
We all sit down.
