The Return Of The Marauders Part II: Harry Potter And The Sorceror's Stone
Warnings: From here on and forward, Harry's title for Sirius changes, as he becomes his father, as the years they spent together now change things now. As he and Harry start acting like father and son, as year 5 changes things further as he's now acting like a real father here. To him as he and Harry developed a bond that would take his place with James as the years go by now.
The exchange in this chapter, before book 5 starts is going to be a hint to what's coming in The Order Of The Phoenix. As books 4 and 5 are being altered to everyone in the castle going pro Ministry Anti Dumbledore starting now. As this continues, before they realize that Ron could be a spy, while Hermione is constantly being hexed.
Disclaimers: Harry Potter doesn't belong to me, the story belongs to me, everything else belongs to J.K. Rowling and Warner brothers.
Chapter 29: Preparations And Try And Trusts III
"Ginny, Percy, twins, ladies, Oliver, Neville, Cedric, Lee." I said in response, and they nodded and Minerva chuckled, knowing I was inputting them into the secrecy. "I guess that underlines things you two, until you're clean, you're not to be trusted with this. As it's the bathroom and bedroom exchange and we go to enforced separation and Harry. Danny, is going along with it, but Master of the Manor at age 13, in reverse now." Maggie said and I nodded and Mione paled at that.
"That's it exactly, you know I'm beyond emotionally fragile, but this in truth is going to be, after said exposure of my legs, though I mention dad, you know. You know I'm faking this with Patterson possibly listening from outside the door of the infirmary bathrooms. Or the duo decide to check from the door from our dormitory, till you lay the boom now. You're keeping us apart, and my nod of agreement is in acceptance as you lock the door." I said to her then gently then.
"Why not, Heydon was a spoiled junior master of the manor, till Katie took him down several pegs, but this is in reverse, you're like Robbie, a junior lord with a maturity of a 17 year old." Spreckley said and I nodded. "Yeah preparing to revitalize my family, the betrothed is Ginny, we're acting like what we are, a junior lord and lady of the manor. But I love being the son of a muggleborn, it doesn't bug me, but she's wanting to be pureblood." I said and Laura nodded.
"The she being Hermione, their kids are going to be half bloods later, but your's are 3/4's pure blood here." she said and I nodded to her. "The old fool basically filled her head up with some activist rubbish now, but she's in rehab from his programming. But I reached my limit, always about what they want, never about what I want, till I do this. And now they realize, to get them to listen, I agree with you, this is my boycott, by barricading myself into your domain now here."
"As I bring Ginny in there with me, and then do a pre-emptive and get their parents here, to deliver the real kick in the pants." I said and Laura nodded sternly to the news. "But no to dropping my favorite classes, no to just giving Cho a chance, I'm taken already. No to leaving the castle, I have orders given to me by my father and Maggie's character. And no to not seeing Ginny, I love Ginny, she is my everything, that if the only way to get them to listen now here."
"Is by doing this, then so be it, I'm going to get through to them, and if this is the only way, then I will." I said and she and Peter nodded sternly then. "Talk about a non violent protest to the stubborn so called friends, but you're going to get through to them. And if this is the only way, so be it." Spreckley said and Maggie nodded sternly in agreement. "There's the maturity of a young wizarding lord, non violent protest." Cedric said and I smiled at his approval gently.
"Hey Kingsley, we can use that story to manage year 5." Fred said and he nodded. "Good point, but like she said, there was a time when we'd have believed you, now we have to disagree. But you're making it up, but now we're wiser, so go away and let us live in peace Headmaster. Young man, everyone in my cub's arena had enough of the lies, but we're not listening anymore." he said and they both started shaking, realizing once I called that retraction, they'd never listen.
"You know that one?" I said and she nodded. "I love the muppets, dad keeps me on focused on being muggle than pureblood, but I watch this one all the time. That after I hear that crying wolf scenario one too many times." she said and Sarah, Penny, and the others nodded. "Yeah right, sure!" we all said together and our teachers nodded. "Nice fable in what not to do and sooner or later, they actually do a song and dance over false alarms." Penny said and they nodded gently.
"Before the follow up the next year, Cabin fever?" I said and they started laughing at that. "The ending of the song was hilarious right now, we can do the chorus line in the dorms. But not now, or every pureblood adult is going to die laughing at that." Ricky said to me while leaving his hand on my shoulder and I nodded. "But our way of life, not easy to give up, but wolf, or werewolf, means the same thing, but that's enough over reacting." I said and they all nodded.
"Point taken right now and like we said, you keep this up and when you believe the headmaster, if he says Riddle came back after the tournament, all on Harry's delirious claims. Though Harry told us to erase the memories, none of us are going to listen to you now." Filius said sternly to that and he started shaking. "The Boy Who Cried Werewolf now, you're said boy, young man, you must stop over reacting or we'll never listen to you." Minerva said sternly at that remark.
"And to say this now, all the parents are going to yank their children from this school, once the Ministry prints up the slander here. My retraction, so tread carefully, I can't remember what happened that night, and we added a year here to this. So we're 5th graders to 12th, as Cedric stays for another year, we all get our last year together in the Quidditch teams. Last game of the season, he and I destroy the Slytherin team and we get our real rematch, before he leaves."
"His year of glory, mine and we tie it up with the quartet leaving as Katie and I rebuild the team in year 6, she's an 10 grader, me 9th." I said and they paled, realizing their parents heard or read the news and they weren't going to let them come back. What with the media and ministry claiming Dumbledore was crazy if Voldemort started in their future year. "Year 5, after he stops him and destroys all the anchors." Percy said and Crouch nodded sternly as they nodded then.
"And again everyone, from the twins class, to current first years, I humbly apologize for calling werewolf, dealing with Junior and Peter left me traumatized and secondly. I got bit by a spider right now, before being exposed to the cruciatus curse, so now I know. So the fight was an hallucination, I'm almost done destroying the anchors, I just have the bloody snake. And then if he returns, if he does, he's finished, as I do it myself, don't worry everyone, my team and I."
"It's just year 3 all over again for us, more work in training, less play now, my auror junior team are the Gryffindor quidditch team. But me to Katie, Alicia to George and Fred to Angel, our last season this next year. So I can't remember what happened, so he's not back, if he never reveals himself, he must not be back, so thank you." I said and the ones believing me all nodded gently, and Dumbledore paled, realizing I was not taking back my retraction if he kept this up now.
"Yeah, you to me, we're the best of friends and brother and sister, my partner in crime, my brother." she said and I looked down and Minerva chuckled as Katie pressed her forehead to mine. "No need to treat me like I'm a 9 year old, big sister maybe, but don't baby me." I said and she smiled. "Can you blame me, after the things you get yourself into, Harry?" she said and the quartet chuckled. "Point taken here." they and Oliver said and our parents started laughing.
"And Mione and Colin are us in the next generation here, he's going to say the same thing, I maybe a year younger, but don't baby me." I said and she chuckled. "Can you blame us, though 11 or 12, we don't see you at your current age, but still 7 years old. As soon we got to leave and we're separated till we come home, back to our partner in crime." she said and I hugged her tightly and her parents smiled at the bond between us, as she was my best friend on the team.
"Issues in being a team Harry's the youngest of us right now, we want our last year together before the twins, Angel and I leave next. And a certain someone ruined the entire year for us, said someone is dangerous and deluded. Claiming the bloody bastard is still alive, Harry's destroyed 6 of those things right now, we're on the home stretch here right now. But the guys, Angel and I have NEWTS, Harry his OWLS, Katie's in her 6th year." Alicia said sadly to this now.
"Yeah now I'm furious, Harry claimed werewolf and threw in a retraction, there is no taking the words back, he's on the home stretch here with those anchors now. To me, with the family thinking like I do, I say Ron needs to free himself from said delusion. Before he gets tarred with the same brush that the headmaster is, so what now, once dad says 'we think'. He's going to freak out after Harry switched schools the year before." Percy said and the quintet nodded then.
"Like I said, traitor is big word coming from you and what do you call you did the year before exactly Ronald, why does everything keep coming back to Dumbledore. Yes I made a mistake in not seeing he been hexed, but I'm willing to live up to my mistakes, Harry now. He claimed werewolf, and printed a retraction, I accept that retraction right now. But you want to follow Dumbledore to the grave fine, I know who to put my faith in, and it's Harry and the ministry."
"But you do this, you're a traitor to us, your entire family now, he's engaged to Ginny, he's perfect for her right now. But first you're ticked off he's not bothering to hang out with you, because he wants to be with her, with the dementors here. Then after his name comes out of that goblet, you claim him a traitor and are estranged for a month. And now, despite knowing the crucio side effects, you believe that tripe." he said and Arthur crossed his arms sternly.
"Harry has destroyed 5 of the 7 anchors, all that's left is the snake, ring and Riddle himself and we're done, this war ends before it begins. But with the headmaster's sanity slippage now, Amelia and Rufus assigned Kingsley Shacklebolt and Dora Tonks to Ministry positions now." he added and Fudge nodded as we ended it. "I know I screwed up here, but I can make amends, so ideas, how do we do years 4 and 5 now?" Percy asked and I smiled as I answered him gently.
"You work for the ministry, as does your father and you both sided with me, as did the twins, Charlie, Bill, Ginny and your mother. You knew I printed up a retraction, and you knew I went by the ministry and took it back. And as I started school at the academy, I was working for you as cadet auror now, the anchors were destroyed, he maybe alive. But all of them are destroyed, I'm waiting till he attempts to break in after hours, to drop the act, and you get your proof."
"They never stopped and you arrest all the ones claiming the imperio." I said and he smiled sternly and the twins, Charlie and Arthur all smiled at my idea. "And we all have one person to blame for that, as we all think like Seamus here right now." Angelina said, crossing her arms and Dumbledore paled, realizing this was why he had ministry interference that year. "Harry and we are back in the dorms, but we're all sharing the same thought, what if we never came back."
"Who do we have to blame for this, Harry is recovering from the torture curses, the Saint Mungo healers erased the trauma from his mind. Just wait for the confrontation in the dorms or worse at dinner that night, with Kingsley taking Umbridge's spot." Katie said and the twins, Angelina and Alicia nodded in agreement. "And we all know Dumbledore wants him back under his control, to him there is no other option, with us now all young cadets here right now again."
"We all had enough of this, but Dumbledore says this, Dumbledore says that, sorry love, boys, so long as he's headmaster, you're endanger. We don't think it's a good idea for you to be there right now." Arthur said in response. "But mum, dad, we want to stay our team, we want to see Harry!" The twins and the girls shouted together. "Alright, but if there's any trouble, I want you out of there and come home boys, young lady." Arthur and their parents said together at that.
"Yes mum, dad." the quintet said together sighing then and I nodded gently. "Dad please, like the team, I want our last 2 years together, as after it ends, it's just Ginny and Ron. But with Ron being a hotshot, Ginny and I need to be together, the imprint." I said and he nodded gently as dad said it for both of them. "Alright, but like the quintet, any trouble, you're both coming home, it's not safe with him, them, on the edge of desperation." he said and we both nodded.
"Yes dad." We said together and I sighed, before pretending it was a month later. "Guys!" I shouted and they moved to me. "Everything okay, what's wrong?" I asked and they sighed. "Our mums and dads didn't want us coming back this year." Katie said sadly and I nodded. "It's Dumbledore?" I asked and they nodded. "Dumbledore." Fred said and I nodded. "I get it, don't want to let you go yet." I said as the girls all hugged me and I tightened my arms around them.
"Just us now, the guys and Sarah graduated, we're freshmen and juniors in high school and the the bloody buzzard is dead now, we're free." Katie said and I nodded. "Yeah I know, we just got to make it the next two years and the old fool is no more." George said, looking between us and I nodded. "My parents are scared he's going to try and get to you, we're on protection Harry, never leaving you alone with us 17 now." Fred said and I nodded as I said it to him gently then.
"Dad thought the same thing right now, he didn't think it would be smart to return with his sanity close to snapping in his desperation to control me. But all that's left is the snake and the ring and we're done now, but the one in me is gone, I'm free. And of that portion of the prophecy, dad is afraid he's going to try and hex me, to do things his way." I said and they nodded as Dumbledore paled, realizing we all thought this about him, as they exchanged looks.
"Dad thought the same thing right now, he didn't think it would be smart to return with his sanity close to snapping in his desperation to control me. But all that's left is the snake and killing him and we're done, but the one in me is gone, I'm free. And of that portion of the prophecy, dad is afraid he's going to try and hex me, to do things his way." I said and they nodded as Dumbledore paled, realizing we all thought this about him, as they exchanged looks.
"Hey Lee, you better say it for us now, in case Patterson asks right now, Dumbledore nearly wrecked the year for us. Because our parents didn't want us coming back this year, Uncle Pad with them." George said and Lee nodded, knowing this reaction at dinner was asking for a brawl to break out now, as we pretended that. And as Katie and I were reading the newspaper at the table that night, as she and I underlined several things and passed it to the quartet then.
"Remember that exchange, after we saw Barty drinking from his hipflask?" Dean asked and I nodded. "What do you think he's drinking, do you suppose?" George asked and I said it sternly. "It's not pumpkin juice, that's for darn sure, but this is a school, no drinking, so best guess, it's a potion, though what I don't know, probably polyjuice. Professor is that really you or did Barty clone himself?" I asked and he smiled gently. "It's okay son, it's me." he said and I nodded.
"What's the last thing you would tell me, after realizing I saw the bloody dragon, and going about it differently." I said carefully and he smiled. "That you should play to your strengths." he said and I nodded. "Who was it who came to get me, as dad was moving me from Aunt Petunia's to his place?" I asked and he chuckled. "That's me, Remus, Kingsley, Dora, Emmaline and Dedalus." he said and I smiled in relief. "Yeah that's you alright." I said and they smiled.
"Nice thinking son, you never know if I was being impersonated by a death eater, or just a member of the real Order, and go to security questions. And the fact I know the right answer, that tells you I'm the real Alastor Moody." he said smiling and Minerva smiled proudly. "After what happened last year as 1 escaped Death Eater, another on probation, Barty breaks out. And escapes finally after the riot, and then comes his teaching here..." I said and he nodded gently.
"Did the MLE commandeer the school this year, if all of you took the job, Sir?" Fred asked and he nodded. "Yeah extended in the dueling, but it's theory this year in Defense son, you need a break from this in the constant life and death stuff, so year 3 again." he said and we smiled in relief. "Any sightings yet, or with the 12, I supposedly named in them starting up?" I asked and he smiled. "Not a one, they're keeping a low profile for a while." Scrimgeour said and I smiled.
"Da, da, da, da da." I hummed and heard it come from 30 other members of both tables. "Yeah right sure." they all said together speaking the lyrics and I started laughing, as Katie wrapped her arm around my shoulders and Minerva smiled at that. "We're not doing this all night, I know you love that song in the case of false alarms, but how many times can we hear it. Before we all had enough of it in us adult witches and wizards cubs, hmm." Severus said for both of them.
"Can't help it after a summer of scandals here, Professor." Angelina said and he nodded. "I get that, but the youngest muggleborns, we're not scaring out of their wits here now. As they don't understand why there is a case of why that song is even being used here right now. Or why the ministry decided to commandeer the castle this year, so try to keep it dialed you six, okay." he said and the group and I nodded. "Yes Professor." we all said together as we got back to it.
"Hey Professor, how about Home Alone 3, so triple the movies, two at Christmas, and the third after the second semester starts?" I asked and they nodded. "Agreed, we can do that this year, but there's a few dozen movies on Christmas, and you're old enough. Now for that Chevy Chase one." Minerva said and we nodded. "Donald's triplets, getting stuck in Christmas Ground-hog's day?" Katie said and I started laughing. "Yeah they'll enjoy that." I said smiling at that gently.
Watching us, I saw the entire majority watching him with a wary look as he moved to us then uneasily, as I looked up from what I was reading and he saw the head line. 'Dumbledore: Master of divide and conquer' as he said it shaking then. "Hey guys, have a good summer." Patterson said and Lee sighed as Katie gripped my wrist and I relaxed, waiting for the fight to start. "Alright, better then the team anyway." he said and I slammed my fork on the table then.
"Tell them guys, Ginny is 14, she and I barely lost our year together because of this, I'm still recovering, I can't remember what happened that night. But knowing Cedric is still alive, but this is too much, I nearly lost my chance to see you guys." I said, putting my fork down and they both nodded sternly, as they tried to control their anger. "My mum didn't want us, Ron and Ginny to come back this year!" Fred said sternly and he swallowed hard at remark, shaking.
"It's the same for me, me mum didn't want me coming back this year right now. Seamus said slamming the paper down on the table and turning around on the bench then as the 6 of us followed suit at that, and Pomona and Minerva crossed their arms waiting for it then. "Why not?" Patterson said shaking and George crossed his arms. "Let me see now, because of Dumbledore, but the Daily Prophet and the Quibbler have said alot of bad things about Dumbledore."
"But nothing, but praise for Harry at the time, he saved Cedric, he killed the bloody tosser, killed the basilisk, and destroyed 6 horcruxes. After waking up from being in a medically induced coma right now, he, based on the report, printed a retraction. And took back said claim now, he's destroyed several more of what holds the dark lord to life. But in the eyes of my parents, until his anchors are destroyed, it's not safe to come back here, to them, he's going on conspiracy."
"Conspiracy and sedition, we all know why the headmaster is obsessed with Harry, it's because he thinks Harry is the one that can stop him. But Harry already destroyed 5/7's of the items that can keep him alive, if he is back right now, to them. He's dangerous, as dangerous as Riddle was right now, but Harry has been destroying those items left and right. So no, not back, he's never come into the open yet, so the Headmaster is delusional here, but you were quick here."
"To believe Harry was the heir of Slytherin, followed by his putting his name in the goblet right now, and he gets bit by the blasted spider. Gets hit by the crucio twice right now, and is nearly murdered himself after seeing Peter Pettigrew almost kill Cedric. But Harry claimed werewolf, and they let it go, but the Daily Prophet've said a lot of bad things about Dumbledore. Being a dangerous attention seeker and an ego maniac now." George said sternly to him then at that.
"And your parents believe them?!" Patterson shouted in shock and the trio nodded. "Well no one saw what happened the night I was barely killed by him, the healers at Mungo's. They blocked the trauma from Harry's head to give him time right now here, can't remember now." Cedric said and he started shaking in fury at that. "Then I guess you can just read the stupid paper like your idiot parents, it'll tell you everything you need to know." he snarled at that remark angrily.
"Don't you dare insult our parents, Patterson!" Fred snapped in fury and he growled at that. "I'll have a go at anyone that calls the headmaster a liar!" he snarled at him in response. "Both of you shut up, before you get us all detention on the first night back, shut up, alright. Just knock it off, calm down both of you!" I shouted and the ministry nodded as Kingsley swung his hand to Minerva and she nodded. "Thank you Harry, we can handle this." she said to me and I nodded.
"And to repeat that, I see a punch get thrown, you're ending up in detention and 50 points lost on the first night back, so think twice students. And then think again right now, starting now is a ministry approved form, call it as you see it. But the headmaster is under investigation, Harry, auror group meeting tonight, baby!" Dora shouted and the 20% all paled at that. "Got it Sis, Kingsley, I can meet up with you after dinner is over." I told him and he nodded gently to me.
"Hey cousin!" Draco said smiling and she smiled at us then. "Just graduated from the academy, Dora?" I asked and she nodded. "I'm assistant Professor to Kingsley, Harry." she said and I smiled in delight at that news then. "Alright so big sister here, big brother still in Romania till the wedding and then comes home in the case of Bill and Fleur at the moment." Fred said smiling in relief and we smiled in delight as my age group exchanged smiles of delighted happiness then.
"Wait what?" Dennis asked and we nodded. "The Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs are the best of friends Dennis, so if not one of the 8th years from when Harry and his class started. Then we got the other now, and she's Charlie's best friend, when they were going here. But her parents are close friends of the Potters and Weasleys." George said and he nodded. "Okay thanks for telling me." he said and Colin, Ginny and Luna smiled. "Hey sis." they said together at that.
"Hey girls, baby." she said smiling and our heads of houses chuckled, knowing we all adored her then. "Favorite big sister, but no longer need a baby sitter, with us 14 to 17 now and Percy and the trio just left now, so just us, But do I need to ask what class you're teaching this year guys, if you're commandeering the castle, in the MLE?" I asked and she shook her head. "Only one vacancy, kiddo." Cunningham said and we all nodded. "Defense." I said and they both nodded.
"Alright everyone settle down now, attention!" Severus shouted out and we all went to attention at that. "Welcome everyone to another year at Hogwarts, we have two new members of our teaching staff this year, and a change in the third. Until Professor Hagrid returns, with year 3 of Care of Magical Creatures, Professor Grubbyplank had graciously accepted to return this year. For Defense Against the Dark Arts, I'm pleased to introduce Auror Kingsley Shacklebolt."
"And his partner who will be this years's Defense Against The Dark Arts." Dumbledore said and I smiled as I answered that. "Are you sure he's the real one this time, or she is, after employing Junior, but 1) because Quirrell carried his soul. 2) Lockhart was a charlatan, and 3) is we had animagus/death eater in the dorms for 7 years….?" I called out and he paled. "Yeah I agree with him, why does it always take him being the one to crack each scenario, but 4 years of this."
"Harry had to have had enough sooner or later, and we get the sooner, after it turns out, Junior confunded the goblet last year!" Seamus shouted and the pro ministry members nodded in agreement to that. "Nice catch boys, and point made, but we had a death eater and an ex double agent in this school. A hidden one and our auror professor was kidnapped, and replaced right now." Remus said with a bemused smile and Kingsley decided to get up on that remark.
"Evening everyone, as you knew me for several years as past security, this year, I'm acting a defense professor. Although each headmaster has brought something new to this historic school progress for the sake of progress must be discouraged. Let us preserve what must be preserved, perfect what can be perfected, and prune practices that ought to be prohibited. Starting tonight, all students that wish for added training after Lockhart messed up the dueling club for you now."
"We can teach you more defensive spells, but it's more theory, less practical in class later this year, because we have reason to believe, the headmaster is preparing a coup. And using you to do so, so class is more theory on training, dueling class is practical." he said and I nodded. "Wicked, we can learn more with our headmaster here this way." Fred said and I nodded. "What use is that, if we're attacked, it won't be risk-free." Patterson said to that news and we sighed.
"At least it's not me saying this, but I can't remember, and frankly why worry, so long as he knows I'm destroying those things, he's not coming out into the open. And the Death Eaters are all keeping a very low profile, though they're all having a field day. With his reputation being dragged through the mud right now." I said and everyone on both sides of us all nodded. "I get that son, but no need to get snarky, little mate." Kingsley said gently and I grinned at the title.
"Translation, in American english, little buddy." I said and they chuckled at that remark. "Issues in being our headmaster, our boss gets severely overly protective with us now." Fred said and I nodded. "What you expect right now, last year was crazy enough already here, with you creating the armaments for said so called war right now with your joke shop. But you gained enough you can do this without the NEWTS, and be self employed next." I said and the twins nodded gently.
"Dad wouldn't mind I'm funding you, he, Sirius and Remus, Padfoot, Mooney and Prongs, so you're an extension to PMP." I said and he smiled as he patted my shoulder. "But like you said why worry right now, he's never come out into the open, so why worry." he said and Kingsley nodded in agreement. "No magic in class, risk free injuries." he said and he said it again. "What use is that, if we're going to be attacked, won't be risk free." he said and I shook my head then.
"Here we go again, oh, Professor, Professor Snape." Alicia said and they exchanged looks. "Here it comes…." Severus said sternly, knowing there was about to be a shouting match breaking out then from this. And I nodded as Poppy passed me a potion to take the edge off of said headache and with it further blacking out the firefight then. "Despite destroying several, he's still trying to break down my mental door, though I got it locked and bolted." I said and Severus nodded then.
"Headache son?" he asked and I nodded. "Well that's a painkiller mixed with the memory modifier, I created it for you after the close call last semester." he told me and I nodded. "So basically keeping that door locked indefinitely, we're not feeding any wolves here. Though we fed Mooney already right now and by wolves, I mean feeding the wrong side of this situation. Feeding the fear till it starts something, but try to throw me to the werewolves and I call wolf."
"Which is the same in my world as screaming fire in a crowded building and causing a panic, but freedom of speech will not save you from doing that and starting a panic. Just continuing with this argument is feeding the paranoia of if he's back or not till someone. In truth, suffers a breakdown here, but schizo effective, bordering on paranoid schizophrenia here. That the headmaster's feeding it till he's snapped, Uncle Severus!" I said and he nodded at the news.
"Is that what happens in mental health, the more someone encourages this, the more he's never going to recover, till they hurt themselves or someone else?" Seamus asked and I nodded to him. "Yeah it is, this is why we try to tone it down, you know I'm still recovering, I can't remember, but I still have flashbacks, P.T.S.D., at my age, that's a dangerous thing. The adults all know this and are trying to tone it down." I said and he nodded as Katie rubbed my back.
"Good point, the more you talk about this, the more it's feeding the demons of fear and terror now: Mars, Phobos, Deimos: War, fear and terror. Dementors, they feed on our biggest fears as do boggarts, but why are you feeding the wolf right now. Trying to make it so we change policy after your beloved headmaster employed a death eater last year. One masquerading as our head professor of the academy, we promise, we're not tolerating that right now, my star pupil now."
"He's been traumatized by Junior and Pettigrew nearly killing Cedric in front of him, I'm not going to allow you to make his recovery worse, now this conversation is over. In the eyes of Madam Pomphrey and the healers at Saint Mungos, it's stop talking about it. As he's wracked up mentally and emotionally right now, he'll get over this if we give him time now. But they and Professor McGonagall think treating this like a regular non trouble year now in truth now."
"Like year 3 after Pettigrew escaped, and being normal: training, quidditch and the like, and keep things as calm and quiet as possible, until he is ready to come to terms with it." Kingsley said sternly to that and Patterson paled at that remark, realizing they'd rather keep my mind and on being a normal year, as though nothing changed with the quartet leaving later. "I take it, this enforces my mental door and keeps fusing the bolt shut?" I said and Severus nodded to me.
"At least no one gave him the bloody key yet, he's acting like Englund's character on the movie right now, out of desperation." Fred said and Remus and Severus nodded. "We're not leaving the food hatch open here Fred, but this is not that movie and frankly keep it clean. Before we get in trouble for crossing base two, keep it clean, we're in school." Angelina said to that. "Guys we really need to get into this now, we got cubs 11 years old listening!" George said sternly to that.
And I covered my eyes. "Just who started this conversation exactly?" I said bemused and Katie nodded as everyone surrounding us were shaking in laughter at that. "I'm not entirely sure, but with borderline 5th graders at the table, it's keep the conversation clean before we all get it. And for the vulgarity for this conversation, your and Ginny's classes are the youngest of us. In who started school, before Nigel and Dennis started school here." Alicia said and I nodded gently.
As Seamus smacked him in the head. "Little pitchers here, can it already, but this is neither the time nor place for this." I said and Tonks nodded as she was shaking in laughter at that. "Indeed this is neither the time nor place for that conversation, so subject change please." Poppy said and I lowered my head as everyone was shaking in laughter at that response. "Cub got caught, me quiet." I said in response then and Minerva nodded with a chuckle as Severus said it for her.
"Alright young man, pull yourself together, I know that's embarrassing, but you're 15, we can go into that later, but again, with cubs younger then your girlfriend and her counterparts here. The subject is closed, now boys, young lady, we can do R rated movies another time. But this is neither the time nor place for that conversation, and straight talk only, children." he said bemused and we all nodded as Katie was shaking in laughter at that as they exchanged looks.
"Alright kids, that's enough of that already." Addams said as Severus finished that with a bemused smile, as we tried to pull ourselves together. "He started it" "Didn't" "Did' "Didn't" "Didn't" "Did" Fred said and then looked down and Seamus started laughing at that as we heard an explosion and Norris jumped off the floor and then curled her tail around her paws. "Meow mew." she said in response bemused and we nodded as we all tried to keep from laughing.
"I did and Sorry girl." Seamus said and she gave a bemused meow as I started laughing. "I think that means, 'Alright who of you kittens did that after the last few times. You destroyed big bird, or just red chicken with spice all over it?'." Katie said laughing at that. "Didn't we already talk about this, control your emotions or you're going to destroy something. Who of you did that exactly boys, as we know you're both irritated?" Remus said and Seamus hold his hand up then.
"Sorry girl." I said and she meowed at me. "Mew mew meow." she said to me in response and I nodded as she jumped on the bench. "I think that means 'it's fine kitten, but again, I don't care who started that argument over who started that conversation. I'm ending it, now that's enough of that already kittens, all of you settle down right now. But I hear that again, you're in color kennel every night till white rain comes down.'." Cunningham said and we started laughing then.
"Agreed, I don't care who started it, I'm ending it, now that's enough of that already cubs, settle down here." Minerva said and we all started laughing. "Boys, Miss Johnson, was that really necessary here, we can talk more on mental door enhancements. At a later time, now let's get on with this now, shall we!" Severus said and we nodded as the girls and Cedric and I lowered our heads as we were all shaking in laughter and Kingsley nodded with a bemused smile then.
"Now that's more like it, keep the conversation light at the moment, but again all of you take a break, but whoever starts another and then I get smacked you're getting it cubs. Relax kids alright and you, young man, that's enough of this already right now. We're not scaring our youngest cubs out of their wits on their first night here. So just keep it up and it's the cage for you." Remus said and he paled. "Liar liar, pants on fire!" Ernie shouted and we started laughing.
"Tension relief anyone, before this starts something right now!" Seamus called out and everyone started laughing. "Yes young man, we get the point, but that's enough of the pranks, practical jokes and jokes period, settle down please." he said and we nodded and Kingsley nodded gently, as I saw a look of love in his eyes towards me then. "Debate and argument with the faculty over his being back and Cedric in 3, 2, 1….., now." Remus said then, counting down at that remark.
As I said it. "Professor, it's like every time we do practical this always leads me into a life or death situation, after the amount of practical, in my world. And in the physical education class, there was a period of class work right now, so this year. I think we should be studying up on what these curses do to your body, and take a year off practical in the 5th to 7th years. This way we got more time to study, it's Our OWL and NEWT years for us." I said, holding my hand up.
"That's a worthwhile opinion, and I agree with you, in the class is theoretical, but the dueling club is practical. Just be on guard, he may not be back, but we're still hunting down Wormtail right now, after Junior got the kiss." he said and I nodded gently. "Good point and that's why we should, but I should tell you and Rufus, Amelia, that after I cost Malfoy his elf. He nearly used the avada on me and Dobby blasted him across the hall." I said and they and Remus nodded.
"Thank you for the warning, we will send that intel straight to Barty and Amelia, after dinner is over, now to get back to this. It's this year we are doing theoretical in understanding the damage these dark art spells do to you. I'm going to keep the lesson plan that Remus did in year 3, but any who buy into that load of lies. Said are being under strict observation, you been exposed to his ways so long, you're a danger to yourselves." he said and Patterson went white.
"Students, they will raise their hands when they speak in my class, though this is not the class room, same difference right now. It is the view of the Ministry, that a theoretical knowledge
will be sufficient, to get you through your examinations. Which, after all, is what school is all about." he said and I nodded. "Yeah I agree with that, I'm keeping my head down, I need a year off, before he tries to raid the ministry." I said to the team and they nodded gently to me then.
"We don't blame you for that after the level of rubbish you had to go through since you were still a cub, with you growing your mane in now, baby brother." Angelina said and Minerva nodded in stern agreement. "You listening to this, Professor?" she asked and Minerva, Severus and Remus all nodded to us and we nodded to that remark. "And how's theory supposed to prepare us for what's out there?" Patterson said to Kingsley and I knew where this was headed right now.
"There is nothing out there, son, who do you imagine wants to attack children like yourself?" he asked and I nodded. "With his knowing I'm destroying them left and right, he's keeping a low profile and told the Death Eaters to do so as well. But frankly I can't remember the fight, after nearly being killed by Junior and Cedric nearly shot down by Peter." I told everyone their and Katie's age and class, let alone Seamus and a few of mine and they all nodded to me gently.
"Like we said, we don't blame you for that, but we're keeping our heads down this year, and being normal, pretend it's a normal year. Just without the life and death catches you go through, like we did year 3, and till he tries to do said raid at the ministry." George said, gripping my arm and Minerva nodded in agreement and I nodded and we ended it at that as it got worse. " Oh, I don't know. Maybe Lord Voldemort." Patterson said then, realizing none of us were budging now.
As Seamus shook his head then as he gripped my arm and I nodded gently as we heard annoyed whispers from every section of the hall. "Does screaming fire in a crowded building mean anything to you, Patterson, Harry already explained this. Freedom of speech is not going to save whoever it is for screaming wolf, or fire, in a crowded building and causing a panic. To quote Kermit right now right now, after said false alarm after Auror Black checked the dorms."
"And after Harry had a walking nightmare the night, he got in by a mouse trap. Listen I'm sorry Mr. Patterson, you have cried wolf one too many times. You have betrayed our trust, we simply can not believe you, but you're constantly crying wolf till nobody takes you seriously here. The wiseacre duo were trying this on the show, till Austin and Jason said it now in truth. You simply must stop over reacting, if something bad were to happen, no one would listen to you now."
"And Harry already printed up a retraction, so false alarm, now stop with trying to start a fight." Claire Rivers said, turning around. "You a muggle born Claire, if you dragged up the show?" I asked and she nodded. "Yeah I am Harry, I understand perfectly, but the book and fable gave a good example of what not to do, if he's this cold blooded and mean. Still in recovery, we in the dorm understand, best not make waves, with you entering stage two at the moment here."
"But easy, don't rise baby, don't rise." she said and I nodded as Katie wrapped her arm around my back gently. "Indeed, you're traumatized enough already, we don't need him making it worse right now, but the fact he's ignoring this, you're going off denial right to anger. He sounds like Anderson after 2 weeks in bed, trying to convince him it was never him. But first seeing Sheldon murdered and then he sees his best friend die due to his injuries right now, but this in truth."
"Is too much right now, so subject change please." Poppy said sternly and Dora took charge at that remark. "Yes and Harry, don't rise to that, now, let me make this quite plain, you have been told... that a certain dark wizard is at large once again. Have you seen him, have you, aside from the riot at the cup, seen any indication they were starting up again?" Dora asked for him gently and we shook our heads, as I hid a smile, knowing they were using my retraction for this.
"Well then if you haven't seen him how do you know he's back, he was gone, before you all were old enough to remember how dangerous it was back then. While your big sisters and brothers, me being one of said age group, remember the way our parents lived in fear." she asked, injecting a soothing tone into her voice and we all settled as Alicia leaned against me. "No evidence, no attacks, so no not back, it's a lie." she said and I knew that calmed things down.
"You know that Harry left evidence for us, after I went looking for him, after he never came back and we find him at the hospital in London, the blood status report came back. And as it's the blood of one Tom Riddle, and the body was torn to shreds, like the ferals ripped him apart. So have there been any sightings of him, are the Death Eaters amassing their army?" he asked and everyone nodded in acceptance. "No sign, no proof so no, it's a lie." she said and he said it.
"It's not a lie, Potter saw him, he fought him!" Patterson snapped, as I lowered my head and shook it, trying to make the potion take hold faster. 'Easy baby, we know, we know, trying to fight the recall, don't fight it, just let it take hold, Shh, it's okay baby.' I saw Minerva thinking, knowing she wanted to comfort me then. "Detention, Mr. Patterson." Dora said sternly to him and knowing they were trying to head off a panic attack and flashback, I heard the fight start.
"So according to you, Cedric Diggory dropped dead of his own accord?" he snapped and Cedric grabbed my shoulder at that. "Bro, Harry, Harry, Harry don't, you're still in stage two, don't rise, don't rise." he said quickly, pressing his forehead to mine then and I closed my eyes to control my shaking, at the memory trying to return. "Shh, Shh, Shh, it's okay, it's okay, I'm right here, I'm here Harry, I'm right here, Shh." he said softly and I nodded as he hugged me tightly then.
And I buried my head into his shoulder and he rocked me then, feeling his hand run through my hair, I relaxed and they sighed in relief as he looked at Minerva and she nodded. "That's his best friend, borderline older brother that he barely killed Patterson, he doesn't need that memory. And secondly right now, did the book not make a point, do not mention it, he's wracked up enough, mentally and emotionally, the healers said he'd get over it, if we gave him time."
"So shut up, just shut up!" Lee snarled in anger and Severus crossed his arms sternly. "Young man, you are walking on thin ice, from the healers at the hospital, to Madam Pomphrey. To me, we all said this, never say anything that happened at the graveyard, he's still wracked up. And from the tournament and the fight with the death eaters, mentally and emotionally. The doctors and Poppy said he would get over this if we gave him time." he said slowly and I relaxed then.
And the quartet sighed in relief then. "That wasn't me you bonehead, I'm standing right here, they killed my clone!" Cedric shouted to him, to get him to shut up then. "Cedric Diggory's near death was a tragic accident, based on irresponsible behavior and not checking the wards. And around the goblet more closely." She said sternly and he shouted at her. "It was murder. Voldemort nearly killed him, you must know that!" he snapped, desperately trying to save it.
Him, his grouping and Dumbledore, and knowing none of us were budging to follow along at that remark. "That's enough, enough, young man calm down, or you're being arrested for starting a riot." she said sternly and he looked between us, and we looked at him expressionless. "See me later, Mr. Patterson: My office." Kingsley said sternly and we ended it at that remark. "Well based on that reaction, it's he's too far gone into Albus's control." Amos said and I nodded gently.
"You know I been listening to you far too much when I decide not to back up whoever's claim on what happened that night. You erased it from my mind to give me a chance to heal now, but decided with the headmaster steadily descending into madness now. I was better off staying in your school as everyone who sided with the headmaster now. Are seen as dangerous liars and wanting attention now, my retraction saved my reputation." I said and he and Amelia nodded.
"Nice wording, the ministry, the Daily Prophet, is saying alot of bad things about the headmaster, but nothing. But praise, in your case, because you took a retraction and became the junior inquisitor for us." Amelia said and I nodded gently at that. "Yeah I just woke up completely to his manipulations, he's a napoleonic power monger. Hades bent on destroying our way of life to suit his own needs, I'm at the core of all his schemes." I said and the MLE nodded.
"Yes I call that he's dangerous now, because you're refusing to listen to him and worship at his alter right now." Amos said, crossing his arms sternly and Dumbledore paled at that. "While Hermione is thinking now that you're better then she is at spells and potions. And since you cut contact and are hanging around with my daughter, Luna and Neville right now. Your skills tripled in skill, you're as good as she is, as you're turning evil?!" Arthur said sternly and I nodded then.
"Oh dad, this means with my staying for another year, said change of plans is now void, so the guys and I are going home this coming Christmas break. So whoever stays here in truth, has babysitting duty for the ones staying, but looks like. In truth, that the dorms are now deserted this Christmas, while Harry, he has a family now to go to. While that mirror is put in place, and that never happens twice, but his coming back by the stone." Charlie said and he nodded then.
"Who do think you're fooling?" Katie said and they all said it together. "Yeah right, sure!" they all called out and Dumbledore swallowed hard. "Yeah, I guess the sky had fallen." Alicia called out and Rob finished it. "And we heard it all before, you pulled the wool right over our eyes, too many times with all your lies." he said sternly and Addams completed it. "So who do you think you're fooling." he said and we said it together. "Yeah right, sure." we said and he paled further.
"There was a time when we believed you, now we have to disagree, you're making it up, but now we're smarter. So go away now and let us live in peace, so who do you're thinking fooling, yeah right, sure." Katie said and I said it. "The point is Patterson, until he reveals himself or they do in full regalia nothing's happened, so false alarm, so who do you think you're fooling." I said and every muggleborn said it together. "Yeah right, sure." they all said at once at that remark.
"Alright that's enough on that song, but to get…., not saying it right now." Amelia said and Sirius smiled and my class started laughing at the cut off right now. "And like I said that joke got old by the time we were Billy's age right now, but that's enough of that already." Cunningham said gently. "You get the point, the more you listen to him, and refuse to accept my relationship with Ginny, the more we treat you as a terrorist." I said and they both paled at that remark then
"Yeah but muggleborns, that could be said for this now, so with that, with the corrupt attitudes of the anti muggle activists, we're not going to take it anymore!" I shouted and every muggleborn, young and old, smiled. "We're not to take it, no, we not going to take it, we're not going to take this anymore!" they shouted together and Dumbledore went white. "The Twisted Sister, nice choice in a sit in, till our demands our met." Whoopi said sternly and he swallowed.
