A/N: Thank you all for the reviews. I really like them a lot.
Harry Potter is not mine this is a story from a fan.

(BSC 3 C8) C66 Cornelius Fudge against the seven houses.

The eyes from Sirius were a little worried and wild as he looked at Harry and Bella. He didn't exactly know what had happened, but it was one thing that he wanted to know for sure. Internally he was very afraid for the answers that he would receive. It was not every day that you witness three people entering a mindscape where they were tortured beyond imagination. But it also happened right in front of his eyes".

Bellatrix who just like Sirius was looking around with wide eyes, didn't know what to think. The one thing she did know was that the bond between Harry and her little self, was even more than she wanted to know. That little bit of jalousie she had had completely disappeared. She now understood how important her smaller self was to Harry, but even more how important Harry was for her little self and in extension to herself. "W-was that really V-Voldemort that I have hexed in your thoughts" Bellatrix asked after a moment of silent's.

Both Bella and Harry nodded to her while they were both shivering and twisting from the spell that had been placed upon them in the mind of Bella.

"And this is happening ones or twice a month from when you were eight" she asked Bella with a little hesitation.

Bella stood and walked over to herself. While she pulled a chair over for herself and Bellatrix she told her. "Yes, and every time it happens Harry comes into my mind and saves us. He will always be there for you and me whenever we need him. That is one thing I'm sure off" it was now that Bella looked into the eyes of Bellatrix while she lay her head on her shoulder. "I don't know when you will be sent back in time. But the one thing I do know is that you will find the best man all of England has to offer".

Bellatrix hugged her little self a little closer and looked over at Harry who was still twisting in the corner. She could not keep the little smile of her face when she looked at him. While she took a good look at her husband to be, she knew that Bella was right. He would be the greatest wizard the world has ever seen and yet he was modest and normal about it. He had a raw power that was beyond this world but he didn't know how to use it. The only time he did was when he was mad and that was almost never. Most of it was because he was too scared to use that power. As she took a little peek into his mind she saw that it had been his aunt and uncle that had made him so scared of that power. The one thing that pleased her a lot was the fact that she herself had become even stronger, stronger than she herself had been as a child. Most of it was because of the way Harry helped her in everything she did. While she kept her eyes on Harry she had more hope than she ever had. In the memories from Bella, she had seen a lot of things but the moment Harry was with them, she felt that the knew Harry would conquer the dark Lord. Not just yet but someday, someday he would be even greater than the Dark lord had ever been. She had seen fear in the eyes of the dark Lord and that was something none of his death eaters had ever seen before. There was however one thing that she was worried about. During her time at Hogwarts she had found out that she was more into girls than boys and she didn't know if that was still the case. But if that would be the case then the one thing she didn't want was to hurt Harry, but it would be something she would talk about later with Bella when they had a moment alone. Even if it would be on another day.

The time that was left was mostly spend with a lot of talking and planning for what was to come.

Bellatrix especially wanted to know how Harry was preparing himself for when Voldemort did come back. He would be much worse than he was in the mind of Bella. That was also something she made perfectly clear.

At the end of the visit Bellatrix gave Bella access to enter her safe at Gringotts. The gold that was in there was just as much her gold as it was hers. Bellatrix frowned when she told her that in that way and chuckled at the thought that she was giving permission to herself.

Only Sirius became extremely quiet for the last hour, When Harry asked him about it Sirius had only told him that he had a lot to think about.

After the goodbyes and a very intimate kiss between Bellatrix and Harry, they went on their way back to Potter castle.

*#*

Isabella was sitting in a chair in the corner of the sitting room at Potter castle. Every hour that Harry and Bella were away from the castle was an eternity for her and every minute was a torment. Every minute she looked at the clock and hoped that Harry would return at that moment.

"I can see that my son has made a right decision in a surrogate mother" Lily said from out of her little frame that was standing beside Isabella on a side table.

Isabella could do nothing else but laugh a little, even if it was a little sarcastically. She wanted to laugh louder but she was a bundle of nerves so she couldn't. The reason for her nerves was the fact that she knew that Bella and Harry were planning something to do at Azkaban, but she didn't know what. She also knew that Tonks knew about it but that little minx never said a word. So the more she thought about it the crazier her thoughts became. But she wanted to know it, but in the end she was just hoping that they were alright. She was also hoping that Bellatrix wouldn't do anything to her little Bella. However the more time that went by the more her nerves were getting to her.

When there was a sound of someone apparating into the hallway, she immediately ran over there. "How was it with Bellatrix, Harry" She called out before she was in the hallway. To her surprise it wasn't Harry but Neville and his grandmother who were standing in the hallway. As Isabella came to a hold she saw Augusta waiving a letter from the ministry around and her face looked a little pale. "Daphne, Hermione get over here NOW" Isabella screamed.

Augusta nodded and walked into the sitting room.

Isabella looked around the hallway and shook her head. She so wanted Harry to be home. But he wasn't, so she walked after Augusta. Just as she walked into the sitting room she again heard someone apparate into the hallway.

For the second time she rushed into the hallway but again there was no Harry. This time it was Amelia and Susan. Amelia was waiving the same letter around just like Augusta had done a moment ago. However Amelia wasn't pale but seemed very angry.

When there was an apparation sound for the third time Isabella ran into the hallway with her arms wide open and her eyes closed, she hugged the first person she had in her arms.

"I think I like this way of greeting, yes I'm sure that I want more of these hugs" Andromeda said in an amused voice.

Isabella looked up at Andromeda and blushed. "I'm sorry I thought you were Harry or Bella".

Andromeda laughed loudly and lay an arm around her as she guided Isabella back to the sitting room.

When there was a fourth sound from the hallway Isabella did the only thing she could do. She hold on to the arms of her chair and remained where she was. The last thing she wanted to do was jump into the arms of someone ells.

But when she saw Harry peeking around the corner of the doorframe she couldn't contain herself anymore. She rushed at him and hugged the stuffing out of him.

Harry smiled as he felt the hug and the sigh from Isabella told him enough. His new mom had worried about him and it felt extremely good.

With another sigh she let him go and looked at the others. Just as she was about to say something, it was Amelia who started. "I'm very sorry to cut you off Isabella, but you all have to get dressed. The case between you and Cornelius Fudge will start in an hour".

Just as Isabella wanted to open her mouth for a second time there were two owls flying into the sitting room window. "What the hell, am I never allowed to say something".

"MOM" Daphne screamed while Harry and Bella were laughing.

While Isabella looked very embarrass. Harry took the two letters from the owls. "So Fudge isn't waiting at all, the little creep".

"Harry" Minerva scolded him.

"What, he is a creep".

"I know but you have to give a good example for Isabella, She is still learning to behave herself".

Daphne who was laughing now tried to keep Bella on her feet as she was about to tumble over with tears of joy falling from her eyes. Isabella just scowled at Minerva with a little smile of her own.

"Well the hour just became forty-five minutes so I think we have to hurry" Harry said as he looked at the fireplace with a smile that remembered Minerva from a smile James use to wear.

The next thirty minutes were of people running around Potter castle trying to get dressed in the best outfit they could find. Most of them had their own closet full of clothes at Potter castle, because it became some sort of their second, first no just their home.

With only fifteen minutes to go there was another owl that dropped a letter at the feet of Minerva.

As the women looked at the children running around it was Amelia who made the assumption? "Is it just me or were they expecting something like this to happen".

"Well Neville told me that they were preparing themselves for whatever Albus or Cornelius could do. They knew it would be low and very sneaky" Augusta said with a little smile.

"Did they tell you what they were planning" Amelia asked with a raised eyebrow.

"No" Augusta said again with that same little smile. "But you do have a special place in the plans" and Augusta walked away, while Amelia looked accusingly at her back.

With only ten minutes to go they all left by floo and appeared into the atrium of the ministry. From there they only had a couple of minutes left to get to the court room where Albus and Cornelius were preparing themselves for the slaughter they were about to give.

Just before they had left Potter castle Harry had gone into the office of his father because he just couldn't call it his office just yet. What he had done in the office was something he didn't say, but he still had that smile James use to have.

"Harry" Minerva asked. "What are you and your friends planning to do".

Harry didn't say anything but just smiled a little bit bigger.

*#*

Fifteen minutes before Harry and the others were in the court room.

Cornelius was standing behind his little table with a hammer in his hand. As he looked around he could see that everybody he had told in advance had shown up. There were also a lot of empty places and that were usually accompanied by that Potter boy and his family.

Albus was doing the same thing as Cornelius only he had an even bigger smile on his face. He knew for sure that if the friends saw the trouble they were in because of Harry, they would all leave him alone and he could get back into the good graces of Harry himself. Especially when Harry would lose a small lawsuit like this, all this just to get Harry Potter lord off, and become his guardian again.

"I welcome you all to this court for the lawsuit of the ministry vs. Lord Potter and friends" Cornelius started. With an extremely happy feeling in his stomach he gave Albus a look of triumph.

Albus saw it and gave him a little smile of his own. They had done it Harry would be too late for his own appearance and the later he was the better it would be for them. As Albus looked around the room for a second time he gestured Cornelius to carry on.

"Alright I can see that Harry Potter has not grazed us with his presence yet so it is with a sorry heart that I have to say Sorry, sorry but if Harry Potter is not here when I finish then he loses the lawsuit and Albus will become his guardian again" he finished with a smile.

Cornelius wanted to start his plea when Amelia stormed into the courtroom. Cornelius was a little startled but recovered quickly. "Ah I see that they have finally arrived for the verdict".

Amelia didn't say anything and only gave Cornelius a dirty look. Cornelius threw his nose in the air and motion them to take their seats.

Albus also saw how Amelia walked into the court room, but what disturbed him mostly was the way Harry and his friends walked through the door behind her. The confidence they displayed was very unnerving to him. The power and fearlessness they carried was something he didn't wanted to see. He gave a quick look at the chairs that were of house Potter and empty and turned his eyes back to Harry, only to snap his head around again. The chairs that were empty were now filled with goblins. The moment Albus saw them he stood and whispered into the ear of Cornelius, while his finger was pointing to the Goblins.

Cornelius saw them and walked over to the middle of the court room. With a look of revulsion he looked at the Goblins and almost vomited on the spot. With some difficulty he opened his mouth. "I'm very sorry, but I have to request that you Goblins leave those seats and go over to the visitor's section".

Harry immediately got up from his chair and walked over to the minister. As he stood in front of the minister he had to look up because Cornelius was still a little bigger than him. Harry didn't move and just kept looking into his eyes just as Augusta had taught them all. As the minutes crawled along Harry couldn't hold himself any longer and spoke up. "Minister, could you please tell me why you are taking lord Bogrod his wife and children away from my seats?" Harry said while he was trying to keep the anger out of his voice.

Cornelius kept avoiding the eyes of Harry but glanced over at the Goblins. "Harry, Harry, I'm sorry to tell you this but that is no place for Goblins, they all belong in the visitors' section". He immediately looked at all the other Lords in the courtroom and smiled widely.

Here and there, there was a little sniggering from the seats. At one seat there was even some laughter that was louder. When the gaze of Harry found the source he saw that it was Lucius Malfoy who was laughing. Next to him was Narcissa but her forced smile did some wonders to Harry because he knew she didn't meant it. As he gave her a good look he saw that she was healthy again and doing fine. Slowly his gaze went back to the minister.

None of the Goblins stood or even made a gesture to do that, they just remained in there seat's. It was exactly the same thing that Harry was doing. He had stood in front of the minister and kept standing there.

Cornelius was not aware of what he was doing and waited for the Goblins to leave. They didn't do that so he took the next step. "Aurors, I want you to take those Goblins away. Take them out of the building and sent them away" Cornelius ordered them.

Nobody said anything but looked on as Auror Tonks and Kingsley walked over to the Goblins. Kinsley raised his wand and Amelia shouted. "Take one more step and you two are out of a job".

Cornelius heard Amelia and threw a hostile look at her, "How dare you, I'm the minister of magic and when I give an order I'm not to be contradicted" Fudge snapped.

"I don't think so minister; if I'm not mistaken I think I just saved you from your own stupidity".

"Now listen here".

"Again" Amelia added.

"But".

"Minister, before you say another thing, I don't think that Lord Potter is standing there for nothing" Amelia said with a little predatory smile of her own.

The eyes of Fudge snapped to the eyes of Harry and he took three steps back as he saw them glow.

"Okay, Okay, Harry what is it. What is the big thing you have to add, before we take those filthy Goblins away" he said like Harry was of no importance to him but more of an irritation.

Harry didn't answer and just gestured for Susan to join them at the floor.

Susan nodded, smiled and walked next to Harry and stood in front of Fudge. As she saw the eyes of Harry glow she knew that fudge was shitting himself with fear. So like the good and really helpful person she was, she waited and enjoyed the fear she was seeing in his eyes, just like her aunty Amelia had taught her. After a while she kissed the cheek of Harry and turned back to Fudge. "Minister, as you see, Lord Potter is really trying hard to not lose his coolness".

Everyone of the Family looked at her, but Susan just smiled and shook her head. "No, Minister I hate to tell you this, but as you may remember Lord Bogrod is a friend of the family. So by asking for his removal you not only embarrass Bogrod but also Lord Potter himself".

Minister Fudge was slowly turning red in anger. He started to sniff loudly and was about to reply to Susan when he heard Harry sniff. When he saw that his eyes were glowing even more he held his tongue out of fear.

Susan had a mean feeling of joy from the scared look Fudge gave Harry, so just like her aunt she waited again and enjoyed the moment even more. "Minister, as you may well know. The chairs of a house may be used by all members of that house. Now to spoil your fun, Lord Bogrod is not only a friend but also a member of house Potter. That is why my aunt the head of the D, M, L, E, stopped you. Now, and this is very important, Lord Bogrod is sitting there because Lord Potter ask them to do it".

Minister Fudge wanted to open his mouth again. It was then that he saw the hand from Susan appear in front of his face. He immediately held his mouth but turned even redder than he was before.

"Minister, I wasn't finished. Not only did you embarrass Lord Potter by trying to remove a family member. You also offended him by calling him by his name multiple times today. Most of the people here do know that you do not have the permission to do that. Then again we know that you don't listen that well, but if you want to continue this lawsuit we would like it if you would do it with respect. For the record what you are doing now is not the respectable way". With those last words she turned around and gazed into the eyes of Harry.

Harry leaned forward and kissed her cheek. "You just improvised most of it didn't you little minx" he whispered into her ear.

Susan just gave him a not so innocent smile and walked back to her spot next to her aunt and Minerva. Minerva turned herself to Susan and asked "his coolness".

Susan chuckled. "It is something Muggle, I do not know what it means but it sounded great".

Harry straitened his back, nodded to Fudge and went back to his own place.

Everyone was now looking at fudge. Fudge on the other hand looked at Albus and was begging for help, a lot of help.

Albus nodded and pointed to the chair, as Fudge sat he stood and took the floor. "Honourable members of the Wizengamot, you are all here today for the lawsuit between us and Potter and his friends. We have made this lawsuit because they have brought shame to us in person, but also you as members of the ministry and because of that the ministry as a hole. As you all know this started at the time when I had my lawsuit for the guardian ship of Harry James Potter. It was there that Harry interrupted our esteemed minister together with his friends".

Amelia wanted to stand when she heard the disrespect and the singling out of Harry for the second time. But it was the hand of Daphne that held her in her place. A little dazed Amelia looked over at Daphne, she narrowed her eyes silently saying You better have a good reason or I will put you over my knee little girl.

Daphne just smiled and shook her head as she pointed to Albus Dumbledork.

Albus who had been oblivious to the small bickering between Amelia and Daphne went on. "During that lawsuit, Harry deliberately and without any concern for the status of our minister, sabotage the lawsuit so the minister looked very bad. Now if Harry would have only brought shame to the minister we could have let it all go by with a warning. However in his meddling he also pulled three noble and ancient houses down with him. Now by doing that he may unintentionally brought shame to those houses, this happens naturally because of his youthful age"

It was at those words that Augusta stood from the spot of house Longbottom where she lighted up her wand to ask for attention.

Next to her sat Isabella who immediately stood when she saw Augusta stand up.

Albus, who saw Augusta stand up, turned his head around, he tried to ignore her because he knew that he would lose it all if he would let her talk. It was only too bad for him that as he turned his head he saw Andromeda and Bogrod stand up on the other side. It was not long after that, That Lord Davis also stood followed by Lord Patil. It was now that Albus could not longer ignore Augusta and with raised shoulders he turned back to Augusta and gave her the floor.

"Albus Dumbledore" she said with a lot of hatred in her voice.

Albus didn't wait for her to finish and almost screamed when he interrupted her. "I'm the supreme Mugwump of international Confederation of wizards and the chief warlock of this body, Because of that I am entitled to be address that way".

Augusta just looked at him and sniffed loudly in disgust. "Everybody here knows that Harry Potter is Lord Potter. Now Lord Potter is also Lord Gryffindor that means he is above you at Hogwarts. Now if that was all it would be okay, But he is also Lord Peverell, the original founder of this esteemed body, your superior and yet you don't seem to show him that respect by simply calling him Lord Potter".

Albus turned red from anger and she could see the steam coming out of his ears, But Augusta was too much of a lady to chuckle out loud, she would save that for later that night. "Now before you interrupt me again, what I was about to say was, that my house can make its own decisions. We don't need the chief warlock to point them out. So Albus if it is the wrong thing to do than it is our own mistake and we do not need your opinion. The last thing is the shame to our houses. If we have shame then it's not because of Lord Potter but because of you" And Augusta sat down followed by the others that had stood with her.

Isabella smiled at Harry; she had done what they had discussed. If Augusta stood they would follow and they did.

Albus looked at the paper that was lying in front of him. As he looked around himself he had hoped none of them would object but of course Augusta would. His comment about the other houses was an attempt to bring doubt in their minds. But it had to be Augusta who saw right through him. "Honourable members of the Wizengamot, I want to ask you all to think back at that day" Albus had just went on like nothing had happened. "I mean the day of the lawsuit. On that day LORD Potter had deliberately interrupted that process by calling out the minister and with that bringing shame to us all. So I want you to think about that day and vote in our favour. Kids cannot win a lawsuit in this body".

At the end of his plea Albus looked over at Cornelius Fudge and asked him if he wanted to say something, but the way he shook his head, it was clear to Albus that the minister had no confidence at all. After that he asked if there was anyone ells who wanted to say something but there wasn't, so he had to give the floor to Amelia.

Amelia stood and walked to the middle of the floor. "Thank you Chief Warlock" Amelia said it but it took a really big effort to keep the sarcasm out of her voice. "Ladies and Gentlemen of the Wizengamot, I welcome you all". Amelia stopped and gave a dirty look at Albus as she took a drink of water. "We have all heard the nice lecture Albus and the minister gave us. But I'm here to tell you the real truth behind the lawsuit. As you know I represent the seven houses that were appealed by the minister and Albus Dumbledore. Now there is a very clear difference between the first four houses and the other three houses. The first four houses are.

Lady Greengrass, heirs, of the ancient and Noble house of Greengrass.
Lady Bones, heirs,of the ancient and noble house Bones.
Lady McGonagall, ofthe ancient and noble house McGonagall.
Lord Longbottom. of the ancient and noble house Longbottom.

The other three houses are.
Lord Potter of the ancient and noble house Potter,
Lord Gryffindor of the ancient and noble house Gryffindor,
Lord Peverell of the ancient and noble house Peverell".

Every member of the Wizengamot knew all of the houses that were involved. But by naming them all Amelia knew that she would get even more of an impact then by naming just one. It was the silents after this that told Amelia she had done the right thing. "Now because it could take a very long time I will keep my plea to only two houses. The first house will be house Greengrass and that house will also represent house Longbottom, house McGonagall and house Bones. The second house will be House Potter and that house will also represent house Gryffindor and house Peverell".

Amelia took another moment to take a drink and said. "Now I do this to save you the time. But if you all want, I could go over all the houses". As she said the words she could hear the sputter coming from almost everywhere. There was one person who started to chuckle softly. As Amelia looked up she saw Augusta holding her hand in front of her mouth as she looked around.

Almost all of the members were shaking their head no, they were all afraid that they would be there for more than an hour and just the idea to sit through the case of seven separate houses.

Just before Amelia went on she gave Albus and Cornelius a pointed look and smiled as she saw them squirm under her gaze. "This brings me to the one thing all the houses have in common and the thing why we are here today, when I was promoted to the guardianship of Hermione Granger and Harry Potter. I knew that on that day Harry Potter had become Lord Potter".

It was now that Cornelius stood and interrupted Amelia, "I'm Sorry miss Bones but you are clearly disrespecting Lord Potter".

Amelia just looked at Fudge and shook her head. Of all the time he didn't remember Harry was Lord Potter he remembers it now. "It would have been nice if you would have remembered that at the start of this Lawsuit you" and on that point she held her tong.

"Now where was I before I was rudely interrupted", and she gave another dirty look at fudge. "O yes, it was on that day that I knew that Lady McGonagall was his grandmother. This also made the point that Lord Potter didn't need a guardian in the magical world. Now on that day it was also documented in the archives of the ministry, all thanks to our friends the Goblins". With a slow but very obvious nod of thanks she nodded to Bogrod who nodded back.

"This brought us to the lawsuit of the guardianship of Harry Potter. Now that it was publicly known that Harry Potter was Lord Potter, The ministry had the obligation to inform Lord Potter about the lawsuit, something they obviously neglected. Now because the lawsuit was about Lord Potter himself he had the right to interrupt that case, something he did". Again Amelia gave a pointed look at Cornelius. "Now if the minister had done his homework and had followed the laws, he would have known that Harry Potter had become Lord Potter, but he didn't. Now the laws of the Wizengamot tells us that when a Lord enters the floor. They are entitle to say there peace. Now if the minister had waited or had asked if Lord Potter was finished than none of this would have been needed. Because of this the question for his removal was granted".

There was a lot of murmuring between the members of the Wizengamot, but that was the one thing Amelia wanted. The more discussion there was the more they were listening to the things she was saying. She gave herself a little smile. "Now the best part is that according to the rules of the Wizengamot, Minister Fudge could have been removed after the first warning. Now because Lord Potter and his friends are good and honest Lords and Lady's they gave the minister three warnings. So the humiliation if he suffered that at all, it was of his own doing because of his own ignorance".

Cornelius Fudge was slowly disappearing into his chair. With every word and statement Amelia made, he saw his one chance to win this case go further up in smoke.

Albus was listening and looking at Amelia as if he was really paying attention. But the only thing he wanted to do was to strangle Amelia on the spot. He had to win this lawsuit so he wouldn't have to deal with the other one. But the more Amelia spoke the more he saw that, that was not happening. And that case was already a lost cause.

"Ladies and Gentlemen of the Wizengamot, The final reason why I took the two houses as a example and this is also why I think that this Lawsuit is personal and not because of humiliation. Now if we lose this Lawsuit House Greengrass has to pay a thousand Galleons. Reasonable you would say" and Amelia saw Lucius nodding while Narcissa was giving him a dirty look.

"Lord Potter and his houses on the other hand have to pay a hundred thousand galleons per house. So this Lawsuit is basically an assault on house Potter. What the young Lords and Lady's did was completely in their rights. Now just because the Chief Warlock Albus Dumbledore and our esteemed minister Cornelius Fudge were hurt in their pride. House Potter has to pay. So I ask you say your verdict but do it with a good conscience".

Cornelius fudge was looking at the exit and especially at the fastest way he could get there. Albus was sitting in front of him and was only looking at his shoes.

"This concludes my case, as for the punishment for wrongly accusing seven ancient and noble houses we expect an apology in the daily Prophet of tomorrow. With those words Amelia walked back to her place next to Daphne and sat down. She had been surprised that there hadn't been a single moment that one of those pureblood bigots interrupted her. But on the other hand she had the law on her side and especially the law that saved those bigots. It had been there own law that she had used against them.

Albus rose from his seat and took the spot in the middle of the room. As he turned around he came face to face with Harry who stood beside him. "Harry we could drop the lawsuit we are having now and also the one that is coming".

"What" Harry asked in disbelieve. "Just like that and just do as if nothing has happened".

"Yes exactly, just like that and we could go back to the way it was".

"You know Albus".

"Chief Warlock".

"Yes Albus, I would like that".

"Good, I will tell them, Lords and Ladies".

"Wait a moment Albus". Albus turned around and looked with anger at Harry.

"Like I said I would like that Albus. But Amelia had done such a good job and was hoping for a win. And if I'm really honest I would like to see the minister eat his words. So No".

"But Harry be reasonable".

"Sure Albus, one day I will, now do what you have to do and call them to a vote".

"I will Harry but you don't have to stand here".

"NO Albus, Augusta told me that you would try and slip in a last comment, it's something you have done before. So I stay here to see that you keep everything as it should be".

Albus gave an angry look at Augusta who just smiled back at him. He had done exactly as she had predicted and he know it.

"Ladies and Gentlemen of the Wizengamot, I hereby ask for a little brake so you can all go to the adjoining room so you can all debate on the verdict".

The moment Albus had said what the chief Warlock had to say. It was Augusta who again stood for attention. This time Albus didn't want to make the same mistake as he did earlier so he gave her the floor. "I don't think we have to debate on the verdict just let it come to a vote" Augusta said.

"What is she doing Amelia" Daphne asked.

Amelia looked up and had a little smile. "Augusta is not doing anything; she is just taking advantage of the family. Look Harry asked Bogrod and his family to sit in the seats of the family. By doing this he made sure we almost have half of the votes. Now the only thing we need is nine people to vote in our favour. So the Patils the Davis and two more families have to vote for us and we are clear. It will also tell us who we have on our side, or who is scared of us and the power we now have. Just like now" Amelia pointed at the wands that were all raised up with a green light, they were declared innocent.

"We won".

"Yes Daphne we won".

To the amazement of Albus and Fudge, almost all the members stood and declared them innocent. Fudge could not believe it half of the people were there to help him, he had personally asked and paid them to vote in his favour. Umbridge and Lucius were still sitting down and that was the only plus he could see.

For the friends it didn't matter. They had won and were walking out of the courtroom celebrating and hugging each other, leaving a confused Warlock and Minister behind.

Just outside of the courtroom they bumped into Lucius Malfoy, who had a look in his eyes like he was undressing Daphne.

A/N: This was it again for this week, see you all in two weeks.
