After the obliteration of Gryffendor, there was an emegency-meeting of the Heads of the House in the Great Hall to deal with the first "refugee-crisis" in Hogwarts since its founding!

And? In the middle of the Meeting sat Tsukino Usagi, Amelia Katherina Seraphim Snape-Mizuno, Filia Ul Copt, and Xellos Mizuko. And, the presiding "Headmistress" of Hogwarts, Minerva McGonigall!

"How are we going to handle this?" Pamona Sprout asked as coffee and chocolates were passed around. "The re-shuffling of students? I mean. Shall we be doing it ourselves? As we handled Umino, Naru, Ryu, and Zelgadis? Or, do we bring the Sorting Hat back into play?"

"I'd rather not, at this time, bring the Hat in." Minerva sighed. "The Hat would make the sorting faster, but? It still has too many ties to Albus, I fear. We will have to see those ties cleansed to even THINK of using it, again!"

"Then," Flitwick asked. "How may we speed up the process of The Sorting? Since there are but the four of us?"

"I hope, Filius," Severus asked, "that was a rhetorical-question? For, we have each TAUGHT these students. Some? Long enough to know how well they would fit into our own Houses - if such a time as this EVER arrived."

"The physicality of Gryffendor is no longer here, true," Minerva spoke, "but? I am here! And? Although I did let my feelings for Albus cloud my judgement, at times?
I have always tried to keep my charges' best-interests in my heart! Whenever any of you need my help? I'll be sharing of it!"

"I am just a student, and, may be speaking out of turn?" Usagi pondered. "but? Other students are fostering Gryffendoros, at this time? May we not ask them their views of their new-roommates? I.. realize.. it has only been a week since Gryffendoro Tower's destruction, but? Other students have taken note of Gryffendoros? Even.. new-semesters?"

"Point well-made, and well-taken, Miss Tsukino!" Pamona smiled. "I know that Hufflepuff has taken a few Gryffendors in. And? I CAN say that - though their main-traits are STILL Gryffendor? Many have supporting-traits that are DEFINITELY Hufflepuff! Delightfully so, in fact. I even dare to say the tansplants are taking-root well!"

"As Ravenclaw is benefitting from our new students!" Filius chuckled. "I cannot but think old Dumbledor tried to keep the best-talent to his own House!"

"The Thief of Talent? The Thief of Fame!" Minerva sighed. "The Thief of Gryffendor."

"Well, Minerva?" Severus said as he and Saeko tried to sooth the witch's wounded soul, "The Thief's days.. are numbered. I am assured of that! The goblins have put a bounty on his skin."

"Oh! That reminds me," McGonigal's eyes popped open, "I may need the help of the Sailorsenshi! It seems like Profesor Dumbledor left some of his devilishness is his office? I'm not quite sure what it is, except that it's his? And? I think it may have been used to keep track of Harry! I don't know how to remove the bleeders, myself!"

As soon as the meeting was adjuorned, Usagi and Amelia Katherina Serephim went through the girls'-dorm of Slytherin.

Soon, the Senshi, plus Naru, Umino, and Hermoine, were heading towards the Slytherin's boy's-dorm.

"Doraco-kun?" Usagi knocked at the door of the dorm-room, "Harry-kun? Do not wish to use you like this, but Mcgoniga has problem left by previous-tenant! thinks it was used to track you, Harry?"

With a curse half of Hogwarts could hear, Harry and Draco raced out of the room!

"Oh," Harry growled, "I'm SURE that bastard left his DAMNED toys running to keep track of me!"

"And, make your life more of a living-hell than it is!" Draco added.

"Sounds like something the Son-of-a-Bitch would love to do." Harry sighed. "Well? Let's shut this shit down."

Soon, the war-party was at the Headmistress' Office.

"I can feel it, Harry!" Hermoine trembled. "Even from here! It's evil. And, it hurts!"

"Don't worry, my little House-Elf." Harry kissed her lips. "It won't hurt for long!"

"Iyaa!" Usagi ordered."Harry James Potter? You are MY responsibility! You go nowhere! Amelia Katherina? Mercury! We need to know what energies we are dealing with, and how best to destroy them! Scan this cursed-mess!"

"Yes, My Mistress!" Mercury saluted, then donned her visor and willed her mini-computer into her hands.

"MISTRESS!" Mercury screamed. "Tsumanis of dark-magic are starting to arc toward the south-south-east! Spill-over is threatening Hogwarts!"

"South-east, My Ami-chan?" Usagi asked. "Where is target? How do we destroy waves?"

"Waves are aimed at Sussex, My Owner!" Amelia Katherina Seraphim noted.

"Sussex?!" Harry screamed. "DAMNIT! That Bastard's still poisoning my FAMILY!"

Hermoine held onto Harry tightly, trying to reassure her prince that everything would be alright.

"Do not worry about your family, Harry!" Lucius Malfoy exclaimed. "No Death-Eater has EVER let a Friend suffer! We shall get you to the Dursleys in time! Meanwhile.."

"Meanwhile.." Usagi called out the Senshi, "Minako! Makoto! Rei! Amelia Katherina! Electricute and burn Dummadoro's toys! PURIFY Office!"

"Aino Minako-imouto!" Ami barked out. "Machines are to LEFT of doorway!"

"Hai, Usagi-hime! Arigatou, Ami-aneue!" Sailorvenus, Sailorjupiter, and Sailormars rushed into the Headmistress' Office:

"Venus.. Meteor.. SHOWER!"

Venus literally punched holes into any defences in Dumbledor's control-mechanisms.

"Jupiter.. Sparkling.. Wide.. PRESSURE!"

Mystic lightning fried said control-mechanisms.

"Mars.. Burning.. MANDALA!"

Rings of Mystic fire purified the entire office.

And Venus, Jupiter, and Mars escaped through the billows of smoke!

Amelia Katherina Seraphim then iced-over the melting-monstrosity:

"Mercury.. Shine.. Aqua.. RHAPSODY!"

The sudden ice-storm froze and shattered Dumbledor's mechanisms, leaving tiny-pieces behind for easy-cleanup.

"Now that Dumbledor's hellish-orchestra no longer sings," Narcissa Malfoy chuckled, "We can get you to your kin, Lord Potter! If you wish to go to them?"

"You can bet I do, Lady Malfoy!" Harry responded! "I need to know they're alright, at least! No matter how they feel about me. Care to join us, My Lady, Hermoine?"

"I shall always be at your side, my Lord Harry!" Herrmoine smiled and hugged Harry, tightly.

"We will come along, Potter Harry-Sama!" Usagi said. "You are still my responsibilty! And, Hermi-chan is Makoto's! We will all come!"

"You are not leavng here without Severu and me, hai!" Minuzo-Snape Saeko announced defiantly. "Wherever our daughter goes, we go!"

Soon, a sizeable-party stood at a door on Privet Drive in Sussex! And, Harry knocked on that door:

"Aunt Petunia?" Harry called out. "Uncle Vernon? Dudley? Is anybody alright in there?"

"Aunt Petunia?!' Harry almost yelled, hammering at the door. "Uncle Vernon?! Dudley?! Are you in there? And you alive?!"

"We're here! We're here!" Petunia Dursley's voice came through the door, then she opened it. "What's with asking if we're..? Oh, my God.. HARRY!" Mrs. Dursley hugged her nephew. "We were so worried something happened to...!" Then she saw the party behind Harry. "Robes and wands? Friends of Albus'? Vernon! We may have trouble."

Vernon Dursley then appeared at the door:

"Harry? Are you alright, boy?" Vernon asked. "What have these witches done? You lot get back! And where's your leader, Dumbledor?!"

"Uncle Vernon? Aunt Petunia? These good people helped save my life, I believe!" Harry said, then he almost whispered, "They, definitely, helped save my sanity."

"Harry! What's wrong with you, man?" Dudley Dudley reached for his cousin. "You look a bit rocky!" He then caught sight of Hermoine Granger. "Hold on! Who are you? You look like I should know you? Yes. You're that girl from that odd public-house? The 'Leaky Cauldron' it's called? Yes, I've seen you! 'Granger'? Where's your git boyfriend? That what's-his-name? 'Ronald.. Weasley'? I think?"

"Dursley?" Hermoine growled, rising on the balls of her feet. "If you EVER mention that contemptable BRAT's name is association with mine, again? I shall CUT your heart out and feed it to the pigs!"

"So, the git finally got to you?" Dudley smiled. "Harry wrote me, once, and said he thought you were the smartest girl in that school of witches! So? Where is the git?"

"Last seen having sex with his git-sister!" Hermoine growled, "on top of the Gryffendor breakfast-table!"

"Incest?" Petunia gasped. "Do witches and wizards go for that?"

"No, Petunia," Severus said, "most of us - even the darkest - do not indulge in such practices! Those that do? Are either shunned - or, killed."

"Severus?!" Petunia turned to the hawknose. "What are you doing here? Where have you been?"

"Teaching Potions at Hogwarts, Petunia!" Severus smiled. "Along with spying on Dumbledor! And, protecting Harry! Oh! By the way, Petunia! This is my wife, Saeko, and daughter, Amelia! Or? 'Ami', as she is called in Japan!"

Petunia looked at the three of them - father, mother, and daughter - and smiled. "Lily would approve, I think?"

"Indeed I would, Pet!" Lily smiled as she and James stepped from the protecive cluster of Death-Eaters. "Severus has always been my best friend! And? I've always wished him nothing but happiness!"

"Lil?" Petunia whispered in shock. "Lily Rose? Is.. is it really you? Oh, my God, I thought you'd died! That's what Dumbledor said! 'Killed by a Dark-Wizard'?"

"No, Pet!" Lily smiled, and hugged and kissed her sister. "Dumbledor didn't kill me or James! Although, he would have loved to! And? Sorry for making-believe that we were dead, but..?"

"But? If we hadn't played dead, Dumbledor would have finished what he'd started!" James Potter finished his wife's thought. "He needed a life to sustain his! He's wanted Thomas Riddle, Jr., Lord Valdemorte? But? He also wanted ours!"

"Thought something was off about that Git!" Vernon spat out.

"Hold any talking!" Amelia Katherina Seraphim barked out. "We have a spy listening-in!" So saying, Amelia struck her pose:

"MERCURY.. STAR.. POWER! MAKE-UP!"

And, in a shimmering display, Amelia Katherina Seraphim Snape-Mizuno, aka "Mizuno Ami", became Sailormercury!

Then, Mercury aimed her arms and pitched:

"MERCURY.. SHIBON.. SPRAY!"

A female was then heard shivering in the suddenly thicking fog bank!

"Arabella Figg?" Amelia Katherina Seraphim intoned as she walked gracefully into the chilly pea-soup. "My father has warned me of you! As spy on payroll for Albus Dumbledor? I arrest you on charges of conspiracy against Magical-Britian and complicity in assaults on Harry James Potter and Hermoine Granger! You can come with me to face Harry's new-Protector ano Hermi-chan's Protector? Or, freeze to death in fog! The choice is yours!"

"Harry's new-protector?" Vernon asked.

"Princess-Royal of Lunarian Kingdom, and Silver-Millenium!" Amelia Katherina smiled and bowed in introduction. "My Owner dano! Tsukino Usagi-hime!"

And? Vernon Dudley laughed a hearty laugh! He had heard about these "Sailorsenshi" from Japan, before, but? He hadn't heard enough!

"A bit of a long story, Vernon-Haku!" Usagi bowed. "As with the rest of these tales? Best told where we have privacy to talk?"

"If Lucius and Narcissa will allow?" Lily spoke up, "May I suggest the Malfoy-Estates in Wiltshire?"

"That sounds like a grand idea!", Petunia said, "but? What do we do about our spy?"

"Come along, Figgi-Sama!" Saeko cuffed and prodded Arabella along. "And, thank your god that witnesses are here to see what musume does! Sailorsenshi have grown fond of Harry-itouto ano Hermoina-imouto! Musume cannot lie about what happens to you, with witnesses! Not that she would, anyway!"

And, Severus Snape chuckled. His wife was entirely-correct on this subject!

A bit later, a large-party, both magical and muggle, were settling in Malfoy-Manor, and listening to the latest of the shenanigans to have befallen Hogwarts.

"If you can capture that old bastard, Dumbledor?" Vernon asked rather gruffly. "What can you do to about that conniving idiot?"

"Oh? Some way can be found to end his miserable existance!" Valdemorte growled.

"No need to worry about blood-worm, hai!" Lina Inverse levitated a globe of dark-energy between her palms. "Dummadoro is still running, for now! Without Elder Wand demo!"

The Death-Eaters and their guests gathered to see the spinning-orb.

"Those are..?" Pettigrew asked, using his nose to confirm any suspicions.

"All that remains of Elder-Wand, hai!" Lina grinned. "Jigsaw-pieces, now! Magic of Ruby Eye Shabranigdu is too dark and powerful for even whole Elder-Wand to absorb, much less broken-pieces! Old Ruby-Eye is now having a light-snack!"

"So? Tsukino-Hime?" James Potter asked. "What happened, exactly, to the Weasleys? Our son mentioned that they were caught in an incestuous-relationship?"

"Ronal-baka ano Gin-baka got caught in Love-Potion no Prewitt-baka! Hai." Usagi answered crisply. "Double-dosage! Consequences were interesting! Not pretty, but interesting! They think they were rabbits!"

"A 'Prewitt-special'?" Bellatrix chuckled dangerously. "Who was it first sent to?"

"Harry and Hermoine!" Draco answered his aunt.

"Hmm..", Narcissa chuckled. "And, why, pray tell us, was a double-dose required?"

"Because Hermoine and I Nullificareed the first attempts to add love-potions to our goblets the morning prior, Lady Narcissa!" Harry grinned.

"And, then, drank to Ron and Ginny's health and sanity!" Hermoine giggled.

"My, oh my!" Lord Valdemorte grinned and clapped. "You two should have been Slytherin, from the very first day!"

"So? What happened to the double-dose?" Peter asked. "Even if you had Nullificareed the effects? Some of it would have stayed in your goblets!"

"They were in Poppy's and my care, for a couple of hours afterwards!" Saeko explained. "For shock, demo! Musume switched potions to other goblets!"

And, the Death-Eaters laughed uproariously! "And Slytherin strikes, again!"

"I am sure that put Judge Longbottom on the warpath!" Bellatrix smiled, dangerously.

"And, Money-hungry Mollie is on the train to Abkazan Prison, hopefully?" Narcissa raised her goblet.

"I have few doubts of both, my ladies!" Hermoine bowed and grinned. "Judge Agatha has a very-low opinion of mind-control! I have even heard she frowns upon the DMLE's over-dependence upon veritaserum?"

"That's the truth, if I've ever heard it!" Severus grinned, dangerously. "The only reason Dame Longbottom allows me to brew Veritas is that I am very careful with my ingredients and VERY scrupulous with my administering of the brew!"

"By the way! Harry?" Dudley asked his cousin, "Why is Miss Hermoine barefoot and acting like your friend, Dobbey?"

"You've noticed that, too, Dudley?" Harry smiled. "My Hermoine's transforming herself into a house-elf!"

"'Transforming'?" Hermoine pouted playfully. "Why, Harry James Potter? I'm already THERE!"

Hermoine then ended her "tirade" by giving Harry the biggest wet-kiss he had been given, to date!

"Hmm. Harmoine Jean Granger?" Harry smiled. "When this is all over? You're coming home with me!"

"Yes! My Prince!" The young women said, wrapping her arms, and then her legs, tightly aound Harry.

"I always thought there'd be a lady for you, somewhere, Harry!" Dudley said with a grin. "I'd love to know how this started?"

"Ask Kino-Sama!" Harry said.

"Ask my Mistress, hai." Hermoine purred, then proceded to lick and kiss his ear.

"Hold it!" Dudley said. "'Mistress'? What's this? Are you in the middle of a couple of lesbians, Harry? Damn!""

"'This'", Usagi giggled, "Started with Karate-practice! Hai! hihihi!"

"'Karate-practice'?" Dudley asked.

"Hai." Makoto answered. "Long-story, shortened? Hopefully? Weasel Ginny-baka got into fight with Ami-chan, and Hermi-chan sided with Weasel, as friend! I got mad and went outside to practice karate, so not to practice on Weasel! Then, later, Hermi-chan watched me practice. Asked why I practiced, then asked about Usagi-chan! Explained how Usa-chan and Senshi are like sisters and always have been. Somehow? We got to be friends. VERY good friends. Hai."

"Girlfriends." Harry grinned.

"Hai. Girlfriends." Makoto admitted. "After that? Hermi told us that Harry was needing protection! Dummerdoro-baka no longer protected Harry! Iyaa. Hermoine always worry about Harry-kun! Always! So? Hermoine told Harry to talk to Usagi-Hime. GOOD THING to do! Usagi adopted Harry. WE adopted Harry! Then? Ami-chan sent to Gringott's bank by Usagi on mission! Needed to understand Goblin language to translate old documents! Ami can translate, but? Needed help to make translation run faster! Hermi-chan knows Goblin! So? Went to bank with Ami!"

"And my cousin got worried?" Dudley guessed.

"Sick with worry! Hai!" Makoto nodded. "When Hermi-chan get back to Gryffendoro? Have her look after Harry-kun! Another good thing! Hermoine becomes Harry's nurse! Nurse look after patient? Patient look out for nurse! Find out Hermoine in love with Harry-kun? Harry in love with Hermoine-chan? Prince and House-Elf? Perfect Match! Build family."

"Well, Miss Granger?" Dudley took Hermoine's hands. "Welcome to the family! Take good care of my cousin?"

"I shall.. good Lord Dudley!" Hermoine courtseyed and smiled.

"Master Malfoy? Madame Malfoy?" Harry asked, "Pray my pardon if this is an intrusion, but, may my aunt, uncle, and cousin stay here for a few days? At most? Until the Dumbledor is dealt with?"

"It is THE LEAST we can do, Lord Potter!" Lucius Malfoy smiled, a friendly smile. "It is the LEAST the Families of Malfoy and Black can do! After all? The Potters ARE cousins! And? James and Lily have already been recuperating, here! And? The Grangers, your future-in-laws, have found a welcome-place, here!"

"Thank you, Lord Malfoy!" Harry bowed. "And? Thank you, Lord Riddle of Valdemorte, for putting-up with Hermoine and I!"

"Young Potter?" Tom smiled. "You and Hermoine have not been a burden, as your parents have not been a burden! No. We were all just 'useful'-pawns of ALBUS Dumbledor!"

"Well?" Lina Inverse smirked. "Time has come for Dummadoro to pay for privelege of using pawns!"

A couple of hours, later, everybody that started off at Hogwarts that day was back inside Hogwarts, and checking-up on what had happened while they were gone.

"Has white-barded old goat tried to reclaim Hogwarts, yet?" Usagi asked Professor Flitwick.

"Oh, he's tried, within the past hour!" The half-goblin chuckled. "He didn't get very far, however. Yes. He tried to hide his presence. Tried."

"Hai!" Usagi giggled. "Was told he did not have Elder Wand. His own wand could not hide him? Good to know! Makoto-chan? We need to make sure Harry-kun aand Hermi-chan have safe place to room in Slytherin! Hai."

Meanwhile, in the Nurse' Office, Poppy Pomfrey was asking for help:

"Saeko! Thank the gods you're finally back! I need help with the Patils! Padma brought Parvati into the Medi-wing! The poor girl was wretching a black bile when her sister brought her in here, and she's continued to wretch! What's worse? Her wretching has started Padma to wretch! Thankfully? Not that swelly black stuff! It's just awful, it is!"

"Parvati.. Gryffendoro?" Saeko pondered, then looked deeply into the former-Gryffendor. "Not as good as I should be at reading auras! Still see more than traces of Dummadoro! Kuso! Sending for Severu! Trelawney, dano! She may be quack? Good at reading auras demo!"

Saeko then sat and held each sister's hand, allowing herself to become a conduit between the two troubled-souls, before the teachers got there:

"Hold on, a little longer, Parvati? Hold on, Padma?" Saeko whispered. "Help will come! Hold on."

"Saeko-koi!" Severus rushed into the Wing! "What wrong? I grabbed the vials needed for deep-trauma! Who is it?"

"Parvati Patil-chan, my Severu!" Saeko answered her husband. "She was attacked, first! By who? I think I know! Aura feels familiar. Pomferi says Padma started going into shock after bringing her sister from Ravenclaw!"

"It's Dumbledor, damn him!" Twelawney swore. "His aura's all over the poor girl!"

"I can sense it, too, Sybil!" Severus grew considerably darker. "He's infected her soul! The Bastard's raped her! Quite a few times, for the taint to seep in so deep."

"I.. tried ..warn her. Stay away.. from Dumbledor!" Padma whispered. "Damn him! Damn his 'chivalry'. Nobody hurts my sister! Come.. back to me.. Parvati.. please?"
