Some people like to get up and exercise first thing in the morning. In fact, some are so dedicated to fitness that they wake before dawn, roll out of bed at six to work out for a couple of hours before breakfast.
Valeria called those people amateurs. She got up at 4 a.m., had a quick snack, and dressed up in her breastplate and the skin-hugging sports shorts that replaced her thong, although they barely covered her huge buttocks. She got out of their room, jumped from an open window, and landed beside the lake, beginning her morning workout.
Stretches, push-ups, laps around the Quidditch pitch, swimming in the lake, lifting tree trunks - everything was included. An hour later, the others joined her to join in her training.
Then at 06:00 they went to ambush Quirrell, whom they knew had Voldemort possessing his body.
They arrived in front of the D.a.d.a office and went to hide. Soon Quirrell got out from his office and they jumped on him and tackled him against the wall before Val placed Vishnu's orb against his neck. A dark shape entered screaming inside the orb.
Val then released Quirrell, who leaned against the wall, sighing in relief.
"Are you alright there, Professor?" June asked, as she placed her healing hand on his head.
" Yes, thank you so much for freeing me. He would torture me until I obeyed him. " Quirrell thanked them
"Voldemort won't hurt you or anyone else ever again," Sierra reassured him.
Just then, a hooded figure appeared in the room and gazed at the orb.
" Finally, you are mine, Tom Riddle. Thank you, amazons of the multiverse. " It said
" You're welcome, Death. " Arcee responded
" With this, I will find the other parts of him. " Death explained
It nodded at them before taking the orb and disappearing.
"A good deed done. Now, let's go; breakfast should be ready soon." Sierra said
( great hall )
The five entered the great hall and went at the staff table to eat. On their way, June stopped to whisper in Dumbledore's ear. " Voldemort has been found. The gods banished him from the mortal world. "
An expression of relief came upon Dumbledore's face, as June joined her daughter to have breakfast.
The great hall began to fill with students who sat on their respective tables. The heads of houses walked to them to distribute their schedules. When breakfast was over, The Amazons except June, walked to the entrance.
" Gryffindor First years, follow me. " Miko asked them
" Ravenclaws, with me. " Arcee said
" Hufflepuffs, follow me. " Sierra said
" Slytherins, you're with me. " Val finished
The students followed them towards their classes.
( with Valeria)
As she expected, one of the students was complaining, and as she predicted, it was none other than Draco Malfoy.
" Really this school is dragging itself down. You see those whores they hired ? My father will have a stroke when he hears about this. " He whispered to Crabbe and Goyle.
Dennis Malfoy! Could you repeat what you were mumbling? I'm sure your other classmates and I would love to hear it. Val sternly said, making him yelp in fright.
" Hum, well, I..." He mumbled
" I said, repeat what you are mumbling. " She repeated, glaring at him, making him look like he was pissing himself
" I said, the school was dragging itself down, that you were whores, and my father would hear about this and have a stroke. " He said in a little voice.
" There, that wasn't so hard. And I suggest you be careful of whom you are insulting, David. That will be 20 points from Slytherin and twenty push-ups for you. " Valeria said as they reached the greenhouses
" Push-up ? " Parkinson asked
Valeria demonstrated, even doing it with one hand.
Now, it's your turn, Diego. She said as she got up.
Malfoy did as he was told, but fell on the floor every time, even after numerous attempts.
" Pathetic. Get up, you still have classes. " She ordered him
" My father will hear about this. " Malfoy complained
" Go on, Damian. Go crying to your death eater father. Let's see if he is willing to face me. " Val responded
"Mrs. Darby, is everything all right?" Professor Sprout, who had just arrived, asked.
"We're fine, Professor," Val responded. "Just a little discipline going on."
The slytherins entered the greenhouses and Val decided to train in the corridor while waiting for them.
( with Sierra )
Sierra led the Hufflepuffs toward their Transfiguration class, and no incidents occurred. They asked her some questions that she happily answered.
( with Miko )
Miko led her group of first-year students to their Charms class. Hermione Granger was excited and asked her questions about Miko's "magic" and classes. As the other students grew increasingly annoyed with her, Miko decided to help her and Harry.
When they reached the classroom, she asked the two of them to come closer to her.
" What is happening, mrs Nakadai ? " Hermione asked
Miko just placed her hand on their foreheads and...
"Oh my God, you're burning! You have a fever." She gasped in fake shock, confusing the two students.
She then turned toward Professor Flitwick.
Professor, Mrs. Granger, and Mrs. Potter are sick; they have a fever. I'll bring them to the hospital wing. Miko stated.
" But we are not sick. " Harry said
"That's what they all say before it gets worse. So you're going to follow me to the Hospital Wing?" she said, putting her foot down.
" Please, do so mrs Nakadai. " Flitwick answered
"Thank you, Professor," Miko said, taking the two children's hands. "Hold on tight." Then she used her electro-teleportation power.
"I have seen this twice and yet, I still cannot believe it." Flitwick stated.
( Hospital wing)
June was talking with mrs Pomfrey about their careers.
" I am impressed, nurse Darby. To have managed to earn your license while raising your baby girl alone is worthy of respect. " Poppy stated
" Thank you, mrs Pomfrey. And I am curious that there is no other healer here. " June responded
" The board of governors will never allow it, under excuses of lack of budget. " Poppy explained
" Right ! I'd say it's because Malfoy will do anything to satisfy his petty grudge against Headmaster Dumbledore. " June responded
Just then, Miko arrived with Harry and Hermione, holding tight on her. When they saw they arrived, they also saw they were holding each other's hand and quickly let go, blushing.
" Yo mrs D. I bring young patients to you. " Miko said
"But we're not sick," Hermione protested.
"I know, it was just an excuse to bring you here," Miko said, winking.
"Why?" the two asked.
"Harry, because there are some things you need to know. And Hermione, because we don't want you to isolate yourself." Miko explained.
"Thank you, Miko," June said. "I'll take it from here."
" Okay, I'll help Arcee watch 'Greasy hairs'. " Miko responded, before electro-portating.
June then created comfortable chairs with her forcefields and the four of them sat, with the reincarnation of Horus creating another forcefield around her and Harry.
"Harry, what you are about to hear will be difficult but necessary. If you don't feel you are ready for this, we can postpone it for another day. Do you still wish to continue?" she gently asked.
Harry hesitated, but since the hat had sorted him into Gryffindor, he decided to be brave.
" Yes, please mrs Darby. " Harry answered
June sighed and began " Have you been told what happened to your parents ? "
" Hagrid told me what happened on Halloween. " Harry answered
He did not know the whole context; Voldemort had targeted Harry because of a prophecy made before he was born. The prophecy was about a child who would vanquish Voldemort. That child would be born in the end of July, from parents who had defied Voldemort three times, and he would possess a power Voldemort did not know.
Unfortunately, a follower of Voldemort overheard the first part of the prophecy and told him, which prompted Voldemort to act. " June explained
" Who told him ? " Harry asked, shocked
" It was Snape. " June answered
To Harry, it was too much. He began to cry, and June immediately hugged him, allowing him to sob on her shoulder. The nurse rubbed his back.
"Let it out, Harry," whispered June in his ear.
Harry cried for several minutes before he calmed down.
Are you feeling better now?" June asked, and Harry nodded. "If you ever need a shoulder to cry on, come find me, my daughter, or any of her friends."
Harry quietly nodded and June kissed his forehead and handed him a little cake.
Why did Professor Snape do this? Harry asked.
Your father and he were enemies at Hogwarts, always attacking each other and bullying other students. But James, after being called out by your mother, grew up and took on more maturity. While Snape didn't change and joined Voldemort. He also had a crush on your mother in an obsessive way and begged Voldemort to spare her and only her. June explained, 'You must promise me you will never be alone in the same room as him.'
" Okay, I promise mrs Darby. " Harry answered
June smiled and cut off her forcefield.
" Is everything alright, Nurse Darby ? " Poppy asked
" Yes, Harry is a brave boy. Hermione, it's your turn now. " June answered
Hermione then sat in Harry's place and June turned on her forcefield.
"Hermione, I am sure that you are eager to prove yourself and I'm glad for you, but you are going about it the wrong way. It is good to be smart, but nobody likes it when you show it off." June began to say
"I just wanted to help them," Hermione said.
" If you want to help people, ask them if they want to be helped. Otherwise, you'll alienate everyone around you." June explained
" Do you really think so, mrs Darby ? " Hermione asked
" I have seen it before; I knew a girl in high school who was like you. She was really smart, but she unintentionally drove everyone away from her because of it. The few who weren't just used her to have their homework done for them. She was so desperate to be accepted that she was ruining her own health to please them. I had to go behind her back and tell her parents and the teachers about what was happening. She was then homeschooled, and those who used her were expelled. But she had to follow a therapy to move on." June responded
Hermione gasped in shock, and then began to reflect on her behavior.
"And I want you to know two more things, Hermione," June said. "Books aren't always true and some adults can't be trusted at all."
Hermione nodded, looking ashamed.
"It's just like my old school all over again," she lamented.
" You have now a better chance, Hermione. Works well but don't let this be your sole hobby. You can learn how to have fun with Friends." June encouraged her before adding in a teasing tone " You can start with Harry, I noticed you two were rather close. "
Hermione blushed, but didn't deny it. June then cut off her force field before joining Poppy and Harry.
" Alright. Now, kids, you should head out for your next class. I'll send a word to professor Flitwick. " June said
At this moment, the doors were thrown open and Arcee and Miko entered, the ex-Cybertronian using her eight arms to carry three students who were covered in boils and one who had troubles breathing, while Miko was dragging Severus Snape by his leg. The man looked like he had been used as a punching bag.
June didn't waste time and used her healing aura on the students.
"Arcee, Miko, what happened?" she demanded.
Arcee began to tell her what happened
( earlier, dungeons )
The Ravenclaw students had entered the classroom, and Snape ordered them to sit down as Miko arrived.
" Hey Cee. Has the walking disaster arrived yet ? " Miko asked
He's there, and he's not in a good mood. Fifteen points have already been deducted for "disrupting the class."
"You'd better invoke Jumper," Miko suggested. "I'll go inside in energy mode."
Jumper got out of his tatoo form as Miko entered the classroom in energy mode.
"You have ninety minutes to prepare the shrinking solution," Snape ordered them.
Miko watched as, unlike every other chemistry teacher she had known, he did not explain about the potion, the procedure or the safety precautions. The students opened their books.
"Professor, this potion is not mentioned in the textbook."
Snape went towards his desk and glared at him.
" What more can I expect from a bunch of idiots like you lot are. I can expect this from the spawns of mud, but are you telling me Boots, that you never learnt it at your home. I expected that your swine mother has not taught you anything. It is surprising that your father has been able to get anything into that brain of yours". He growled at him, before waving at the board, making instructions appeared
Miko was becoming very angry at him and the other students, terrified, rushed to the cupboard to pick the ingredients but in the panic, some took too much or too little. The result was one of the cauldrons exploding.
Snape shouted at all of them, ordering them to take the injured to the hospital wing and for others to leave. However, most of the students were injured, and Snape had left the class without helping to sort out their injuries.
Arcee was ready for him and Jumper pounced on Snape, sending him to the ground and roaring in his face. Arcee snarled before pummeling him.
Meanwhile, Miko used her wind powers to make students levitate out of the classroom.
" Let's take them to the hospital wing. " Miko suggested
( present Time )
Poppy and June were furious and went towards Snape. June slapped him and restrained him on a bed with rope-shaped forcefields
" I'm sending a notice to professors McGonagall, Flitwick and Headmaster Dumbledore. " Poppy stated before sending a patronus.
After minutes, Flitwick, McGonagall and Dumbledore arrived.
Now that you are all here," Poppy stated before turning back towards Snape. "What in the bloody hell were you thinking? You could have killed them all, you should feel lucky it wasn't fatal."
"If they weren't such dunderheads or had paid the slightest attention to the procedure, it wouldn't have happened." Snape said.
" It is a THIRD YEAR POTION, you bastard! They are first years who didn't know half the ingredients. How could you expect them to brew a third year potion? " Poppy responded
"I was able to brew it in my first year. If they had any slight interest in learning potions, they would know the ingredients at least. Don't blame me for their incompetence."
Arcee, however, had enough. She punched him in the face, lifted him by the neck with her bare hands, and slammed him against the wall.
"You monster!" shouted Professor McGonagall. "We know Horace Slughorn had to stop you from your experiments, and we know how many times you went into the hospital wing. Don't forget we were your teachers and we know what you are - a bitter Death Eater, who ran away when your master was losing."
Snape turned his head and saw Harry and Hermione. His hatred for them grew even deeper.
Potter! You had to ask them to attack me! You're just like your father, a little good-for-nothing bastard! He cruelly spat before pointing his wand at Harry, who placed himself in front of Hermione.
Before Snape could even speak, his wand was ripped from his grasp and landed in Dumbledore's hand.
The Amazons and the professor knew that, despite his flaws, Albus Dumbledore was the most powerful wizard of his time and the only one Voldemort truly feared. And they finally understood why.
The wise and grandfatherly Headmaster had vanished. In his place now stood an old warrior who had seen many battles; his eyes were focused, cold, and wrath radiated from him. "I am curious," said Dumbledore, still speaking in a calm voice. "Severus, after cursing Harry and Mr. Granger, what were you planning to do next?"
The headmaster then lowered his wand and simply stared at the former Death Eater. Snape was pale with terror, as he now realized that he could no longer count on Dumbledore's protection.
"I truly believed you could become a better man, but by closing my eyes on your nature, I only made it worse. You have abused my lenience for the last time, Severus. I will not only expel you from this school and hand you over to the DMLE, but I will also make sure that you will never again be able to obtain a potion-brewing job in Britain. No, I will ensure that you will never again be able to find paid work in any country that is within my influence, and you will be surprised by how far that extends."
He then waved his wand toward Snape and muttered a strange incantation.
"It's the magical equivalent of a restraining order; it will warn me if you get within 100 meters of Harry after your sentence." Albus explained. " If you do not respect it, you will face Filius in a duel. "
The little professor had glowered at Snape for the entire duration of the confrontation, restraining himself from destroying him.
Then, Flitwick bound Snape in ropes and went away with him to his office.
" Only a fool would want to be your enemy, Headmaster. " Arcee commented
Alas, Mrs. Pax, some people are just that arrogant," said McGonagall.
Meanwhile, Hermione hugged Harry, who, at first, didn't know how to react before turning toward June and Miko.
Sorry, Harry, you're on your own for this one. June teased him.
" You're doing great, Harry. " Miko added
Harry then hesitantly put his arms around Hermione, and felt better for it.
Mr. Potter, Mrs. Granger, I have no doubt that you provide each other with great comfort, but please follow me; we have a Transfiguration class coming up shortly.
The two children blushed and stopped hugging, but still held their hands as they followed McGonagall.
" Aren't they cute together ? " Miko asked
" Yes, they are. " Arcee agreed
"Professor, I told Harry about the prophecy, Snape's role in it and his father's past. He had the right to know." June explained
"You did well, mrs Darby. I will, for now, assume the role of Potions teacher until we have another. " Albus said
" We should probably do something about the stone. " Arcee pointed out
" Please do so. Now that Tom is defeated, it has no more reason to stay here. " Albus agreed
( evening, Great hall )
During lunch, Snape's sacking was announced, and almost every student cheered, except for Malfoy and his two trolls.
Everyone was calmly eating when suddenly the doors flew open, and Fred and George Weasley zoomed in on their brooms. They then tossed a bunch of fireworks into the air.
Soon it was chaos as the fireworks began exploding, causing the students to take cover. The staff then rushed in to try to stop everything. Sierra blew a frost breath, freezing all the fireworks, which fell harmlessly to the ground.
Miko and June then flew into the air, caught Fred and Georges by their collars, and brought them back down to the ground, where the other Amazons were waiting.
"What on earth were you thinking?! Lighting fireworks indoors?! Do you have any idea how this could have hurt everyone?!" Val scolded them.
" It was just to celebrate the old bat's departure. " Fred said
" Don't you like fireworks ? " Georges added
" If you wanted to use them, you should have used them outside ! Even I wouldn't do something like this, and that's saying something coming from me. " Miko responded
" It's the last straw. You are expelled. " Arcee stated, shocking the two
"Wait, what?!" the two exclaimed.
"We talked to the staff about you and they told us of your previous infractions: the numerous times you almost went into the forest, the toilets you exploded, the asthmatic girl you covered with sneezing powder, and the young man who missed an important exam because you latched his bedclothes with itching powder, causing him to wake up with a full-body rash." June scolded them
" Now, your wands. " Sierra said, opening her hand
The twins then handed her their wands, which she froze before letting them fall to the ground, where they shattered.
"I'll bring them home and I'll tell their parents what they did," Albus stated, making the twins gulp.
( Gryffindor tower )
After this event, Val and Sierra, aided by McGonagall, organized a house meeting.
" Before you all go to bed, we will inspect your wands then your pets. " Val stated
The students did as they were told and nothing out of the ordinary happened until they went to Ron.
" Mr Weasley, this wand is not in a good shape, we can even see the unicorn hair getting out. " Sierra commented
" It is very old, it belonged to my brother, Charlie. " Ron explained
Then you cannot reach your full potential, for each wand must be compatible with its owner. McGonagall replied.
" Well, we never have much money. " Ron said, blushing in embarrassement.
" Your parents should have explained your financial situation to Ollivander, I'm sure he would have understood. " Val gently said
Then Neville Longbottom shyly stepped up and presented his wand. Professor McGonagall noted that this wand was also very old.
" Whose wand is this, Mr. Longbottom? " she asked.
" My... my father's. " Neville muttered
" And why are you using it ? " Sierra asked
"My grandmother wants me to," Neville explained.
" I will write to Augusta. It is high time that she see you for yourself rather than someone to transform into her son. Because of her, you would have been crippled in your magical education." Minerva stated
Then the pets were brought in: Hedwig, Hermes, Trevor, and Scabbers.
" Mr Weasley, rats are not on the list of pets that are allowed in Hogwarts. " Val stated
" Scabbers has been in my family for twelve years. " Ron said
" Twelve years ? That's a little too old for a rat. " Sierra noted
Minerva examined Scabbers more closely and noticed a strange, familiar air about it. She then drew her wand and cast a Revelio spell on it. What she found shocked her.
"It's an Animagus form!" she exclaimed.
She then shot a spell at Scabbers, which transformed him into his true form.
"Peter Pettigrew!" the shocked Minerva exclaimed.
Val then punched him, causing him to lose consciousness.
"Call the DMLE. There's been a miscarriage of justice that needs to be corrected." Sierra said
Next Time : The amazons Wave of change reach even the ministry, with Snape and Sirius's trial
