The next morning, after an early-breakfast, Filia Ul Copt, Dragon-Priestess and a powerful witch in her own right, lead five witchlings into Hogwarts' nurse' office - infirmery.
"Nurse Pomferey! Nurse Sa-nape!" Filia called out in something between a trill and the shout of a drill-saergeant. "We need to talk! I have witchlings, here, in need of examination!"
Two nurses ran into the front office at Filia's call!
"'Examination', did you say, Ms. Ul Copt?" Poppie asked. "What did they get into?"
"More like something got into THEM!" Filia snappped out, looking sharply at the five young witches.
Saeko just smiled knowingly at her daughter.
"What HAPPENED to them?" Poppie asked Filia.
"Nothing that they could perform on their own!" Filia snapped out. "Xellos is bringing co-conspirators in! Hai!"
Amelia Katherina Seraphim looked pleadingly at her mother:
"I.. do not know.. who.. is..?"
Saeko kissed and caressed her daughter, holding her protectively.
"I have called-in Severu, he will know what to do!" The junior-nurse smiled. "That is why I called him in!" Saeko then giggled and yipped happily:
"Well, hihi, that, and he IS your father! Yip yip!"
Poppie than looked hard at her assistant:
"How OLD are you, again, Puppy?"
"Old enough to be Obaasan, hai!" Saeko playfully stuck her tongue out at Poppie.
"Probably going through a second-childhood, now?" Poppie smirked at Saeko.
"'Second Childhood'?" Severus Snape chuckled as he walked into the room, followed by a goblin. "When has anyone associated with Hogwarts' ever left their firsts?"
"I REFUSE to answer that, Professor Snape, on the grounds that I might incriminate myself!" Poppie grinned - and, then, blew a raspberry at Saeko.
"Will taste raspberry, later, Pomaferi-Sensei!" Saeko announced with an impish grin. "Daughter comes first demo!"
Snape looked at a wide-eyed Usagi:
"You DO remember, Tsukino-Sama, how I said my daughter takes after my wife?"
Usagi just nodded, slowly, still wide-eyed, at Severus Snape.
"Alright, My Saeko-chan?" Severus interrogated his wife. "You said our daughter had some questions concerning our grandchild she carries?"
Mizuno-Snape Saeko grew quickly quiet and serious. "Hai. Afraid tousan may be Dumbadoro Albatross? Started out child of Uwada Ryu! Afraid child may not be Ryu-kun's, anymore?"
"Why I came as soon as you called for me, My Saeko!" Severus growled. "And, why a Gringott's goblin is with me to speak to Amelia. I would not put it past that old bastard to put his spirit into our grandchild, and do irrepairable-harm to our daughter! May Dumbledore be condemned to the deepest pit that awaits him! However, I have more-pressing concerns than condemning an ancient-incubus! Our daughter needs reassurence!"
Saying this, Severus formed a healing circle around Amelia Katherina Seraphim, carefully stripped her, and applied a potion all over her body, scalp to toes. Severus, Saeko, Usagi, and the rest of Ami Kat's "family" in the Nurse' Office waited as the potion worked its wonder.
"Well?" Severus sighed with relief, "It is just as Ryu-kun affirmed, his son is HIS, and whole!"
"As I tried to assure My Ami that he would be!" Ryu replied as he stepped into the infirmery. "Ami is still shaken, however!"
Uwada Ryo sat down and cradled a naked Amelia Katherina Seraphim Snape-Mizuno in his arms."There, there, my blue angel! You will be alright! Family will be whole. Hai."
"Ancient incubus would shake anyone!" Saeko snapped out.
"And, has!" Severus growled. "Xellos found you, Uwada-kun?"
"Mizuko-Sama found me, hai!" Ryu spoke, "Was coming to Doctor's Office when we met! With other fathers-to-be."
Uwada Ryu gazed into Ami's eyes to reassure her. "My parents are at Malfoy Manor, hai! Wish to know when would be best time to meet your parents?"
And Ami Kat cried into Ryu's chest, relieving the tension that had built up inside of her since her death at the magicks of Albus Dumbledore.
"I died.." Aim sobbed. "Our.. son died."
"Because the Dumbledore could not have his way with you, Commander!" The goblin said. "You mauled him! As did your pup!"
"My pup?" Ami looked at her lap and belly. "OUR pup? Zoisite?"
"Yes." The goblin chuckled. "Pup his developed a - taste - for incubus! The Dumbledore TRIED to make the boy his own! The pup showed his PREFERENCE for a sire! Very wise spirit! A spirit that was reborn when you were, as young Uwada's pup!"
"Hai." Amelia Katherina Seraphim caressed her belly. "Very wise, indeed! Very strong dano."
"And, now!" Poppie commanded. "Who claims to be the father of Hagrid Naru's daughter?"
"Hai!" Gurio Unimo stepped into the office. "That would be me! Watashi-wa Gurio Umino! How is Naru? How is daughter?" Umino first kissed Naru's lips and forehead, then kissed her belly and lap.
"I am well, Umino-kun!" Naru wrapped her arms around the young man.
"Beryle-chan is well dano?" Umino asked his Naru.
"Hai!" Naru grinned. "Settled down as she heard her otousan in the room! Hai."
"Before I entered office, demo?" Umino smirked.
"Wanted to shield Snape-Mizuno, tariyaki white-bearded goat dano!" Naru lowered her voice to a whisper.
The father- and mother-to-be then snickered.
"Kind women?" Chiba Mamoru asked the nurses. "How is Tsukino Usagi? How is daughter-to-be dano?"
"Step this way to learn, firsthand, Chiba-Sama!" Saeko bowed and smiled. "What is news from family Tsukino?"
"They are well, Sensei!" Mamoru answered with a chuckle. "Kenji-tousan ano Ikuko-kaasan, I think, wished to kill Aino-tousan ano Aino-kaasan? Prince Shingo was, somehow, able to calm parents down? Hai. Said it was up to Usagi, as Princess, to pass judgement on baka! Thinks his aneue made correct-decision in not remanding Obaasan's decision."
Mamoru gently scooped a naked Usagi in his arms:
"How is my future-wife?" Mamoru kissed Usagi's eye-lids and lips. "And, my future-daughter?" Mamoru than kissed Usagi's belly and lap.
"Chiba Usagi-joji had settled down!" Tsukino Usagi sighed contentedly, then leaned on Mamoru's should to see the other expected-mothers. "Once she realized ALL her itoko were safe!"
As if on cue, Xellos's voice sang out in the hall:
"Still one father-to-be left outside office! Present yourself and make yourself useful, Potter-knave!"
"Yes, sir! Great-grandpa Xellos!" Harry saluted the Mizuko crisply.
"Oh! Lord-Harry's already made himself useful!" Hermoine and Luna sang out in a perfect-harmony.
"They're both house-elves, now!" Harry "groused" under a smile.
"Harold James Potter!" Poppie stared from Harry to Hermoine and Luna and back to Harry. "HOW did THIS happen?!"
Xellos wore his knowing-smirk, with his eyes closed. Filia, Usagi, Harry, and Saeko were wearing that same mask:
"You are head-nurse, Pomferi-Sama, and failed to pass reproductive-biology?"
"No! No? I mean.. I know HOW it happened, Master Xellos! I just don't know - how - it happened?" Poppie looked pleadingly at Saeko. "How.. did it happen? I.. didn't think.. Ms. Granger was like this?"
"I did not know Hermi-Chan was like this?" Makoto said as she strode into the Nurse' Office. "I did not know Harry-kun was like this!"
"Well? My Mistress?" Hermoine started. "It.. started innocently enough? Luna-itoko and I were.. talking..?"
"Among other things?" Harry smirked.
And, Hermione turned as pink as a radish and shily smiled. She then breathed in and continued to explain as her blush reluctantly disappeared:
"And.. Lord-Harry came back from hunting for any surprises left by Dumbledore, and he looked as though he needed a good messauge? And? I asked Luna-ikoto if she could help?"
"And, Ms. Luna helped?" Makoto asked, arms across her breasts.
"Yes, Mistress Kino!" Luna answered dutifully. "This one helped!"
"Things just got.. out of hand?" Hermione said petulently. "Hermi is sorry, Mistress. Will.. take her punishment."
"Sounding too much like Gallilean-sisters when they get caught!" Makoto giggled. "And, Miss Luna has been around Rei and Minako too long!" Makoto than laughed! "Punishment up to Potta-kun! Hai."
"'Rei and Minako'?" Pomfrey asked. "Shouldn't that be 'Minako and Rei'? I mean.. Isn't Ms. Aino a succubus?"
"Kino-chan is correct, Pomferi-Sensei!" Ami Kat giggled into Ryo's chest, "Even though Aino is succubus? It is 'Rei and Minako'! Rei is instigator!"
"Hai!" Usagi nodded in agreement. "It's 'Rei and Minako'!"
"Pardon.. us.. Nurse Pomfrey," Cedric Diggory stepped into the Nurse' Office, Padme and Pavarti giggling and kissing and tonguing into his ears. "If Your Lady isn't very busy, this morning? We.. ah.. need to see about.. the Patil Sisters'.. conditions?"
"MASTER Diggory?!" Poppie gaped.
"Not yet, Madame Pomfrey?" Cedric smiled impishly. "Getting there, however? Need.. some advice.. from Usagi-hime about that?"
The Patils giggled some more as they draped themselves, clothed in their pajamas, all over Cedric.
"Anyway? Nurse Pomfrey? Nurse Snape?" Cedric almost begged. "We need a couple of - Pregnancy Tests - to.. verify.. some suspicions?" Cedric asked.
"Pray enter the Interrogation Room, Lord Cedric!" Harry smiled, bowing and gesturing for Cedric and the Patils to enter.
"Will see if my Severus can make any more tests, Master Diggory?" Saeko giggled and swayed in the direction of the Dungeouns.
"Severus is a LUCKY Mutt! And? I think my assistant-nurse rather likes the idea of being a grandmum!" Pomfrey clucked, as she went to get a few potions to relax some tensions.
"Oh! Amelia-kaasan?" Padme spoke to Ami, "Pavarti and I recieved mind-calls from our mother this morning! She felt a - strangeness - in my sister and me, and said she had contacted Cedric's parants and our father! She said they would like to meet you at a place of your choosing, to discuss what will happen, next."
Ami breathed out slowly, and hummed. "I am glad they wish to speak to me, even if it will be to call for my execution! I'd rather know parents who care for their children's welfare than to meet any more Ainos! I hope they won't mind meeting at the Malfoys'?"
"After what Dumbledor the Black tried to do with Cedric and me, Mistress?" Pavarti spoke, "Both the Patils and Diggorys would prefer to meet in Hell rather than at Hogwarts! Malfoy Manor shall be a pleasant stop!"
After classes, Usagi and her VERY-extended-family made it to Malfoy Manor. After exiting Harry's and Hermione's "mouse-hole" and reverting to their normal-sizes, Amelia Katherina Saraphim bowed to Usagi:
"Arigatounissai.. for.. joining us, my Mistress! You need not have come demo! I started this! Would do so, again! Hai! Wish to be.. like you! You took me.. under your wing, many times. More times than you had to. Arigatou!"
"Amelia Katherina Seraphim? Ami?" Usagi smiled and hugged the Senshi of Knowledge and of Ice, "You are sister, and you are friend! You have been my friend, and will be my friend. Always! As is your family! ALL of them!." The odangoed blonde giggled. "I feel I am largely to blame for this dano! How could I NOT be by your side?"
She then looked to Rei and Minako.
"Or, yours?" Usagi then playfully blew a raspberry to the two Senshi!
"I wonder where we are all to meet?" Usagi wondered.
"In the courtyard, Your Highness!" Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy smiled and bowed to Usagi. "Your parents and brother are awaiting you!"
"Tousan and kaasan are waiting for me? Shin-otouto is waiting for me?" Usagi started to giggle. "Am I in trouble?"
"No. You're not in trouble, young Usagi!" Narcissa Malfoy laughed. "The Tsukinos have just been talking with the Patils and the Diggorys."
"The Patils.. and..." Severus slowly began.
"The.. Diggorys." Saeko breathed out.
"Am.. I.. in trouble?" Ami Kat meeped.
"I.. don't think so?" Lucius chuckled.
"But?" Narcissa purred. "I.. think they want Dumbledor. Dead?"
"Sounds like Dummadoro Albu-San is becoming popular fellow!" Rei grinned.
"Hai!" Minako chirped. "Number One on Hit-Parade!"
"Everyone is seated on the back lawn!" Bellatrix hummed and stroked her chin. "The Diggorys and Patils wish to talk with Amelia Katherina Seraphim, alone or with her parents, And Xenophilius and the Grangers wish to talk with Harry!"
"I wish to talk to Harry." Usagi and Makoto said as one. "About being a father. Hai."
"Splendid!" Rodolpho giggled. "That is just what Xenophilius and the Grangers wish to talk to young Harry about!"
With a bit of trepidation, Usagi lead her small - but growing - extended-family into the back yard of Malfoy Manor. There, she saw three rather large blankets set out on the lawn, with parties on the blankets involved in animated, and jovial, discussions.
"Good sign, I think!" Usagi mused, as she saw the Snapes to the blanket of the Diggorys and Patils, and ushered Harry, Hermione, and Luna to the blanket of the Grangers and Xenophilius Lovegood!
Seeing the Tsukinos' and Hagrids' blanket in the center of the train, Usagi smiled, knowing that she was within easy hailing-distance if, per chance, someone needed her help!
"So! Shin-itouto!" Usagi asked her brother. "How go.. things.. with Outersenshi?"
"Things go good!" Shingo smiled. "Things are peaceful, hai. No problems with DMLE, iyaa!"
"Good to know, hai!" Usagi nodded sharply. "Not what I asked demo! How are OUTERSENSHI?!"
"No problem with DMLE!" Shingo grinned much like Xellos.
"Ah!" Usagi caught on. Usagi chuckled at the thought of Hotaru-chan siccing her itouto on Haruka and Michiru! "Uranus ano Neptune learn quickly! Doko Outersenshi?"
"With Hotaru-chan, Aneue!" Tsukino Shingo motioned to the edge of the property. "Keeping watch!"
"On look-out for..?" Usagi asked her immediate-family.
"Supporters of aged-incubus!" Tsukino Kenji and Tsukino Ikuko answered.
"'Aged'?" Naru giggled. "Not aged-enough! Still too gamey!"
"Naru-itouto?" Usagi smiled and winked. "Been around Okamii too long!"
"Unimo-koibito says same thing!" Naru grinned.
"Umino-kun been around kyonshi too long!" Usagi giggled.
Just then, a motion caught Tsukino Ikuko's eye:
"Usagi? Musume? Hime? I think Ami-chan is needing your help with something?"
Usagi slowly got up and walked over to the Snapes, and to Uwada Ryu and his parents:
"Nani-yo?" Usagi slowly knelt and sat, cross-legged. "What is wrong, My Amelia?"
"The.. Patils and the Diggorys.. wish to talk.. about.. what happened?" Amelia Katherina said a bit uncertainly. "All of it? From.. the beginning?"
"Kuso!" Usagi hissed as her face grew dark. "Dumbadoro-hiisama still tries to haunt My Amelia!"
"We agree with you, Tsukino-Hime!" Mr. Patil spoke. "Dumbledor IS a Bastard! But? When did you realize this, Your Highness?"
Usagi looked hard at the Patils, then blinked: "When, exactly, did school learn of link between me and Moon? NEVERMINND! Remember how gossipy Hogwart's is! Answer to your question? Diggory's question, dano? Realized hiisama-baka late last Semester, hai! After baka-seaence! Wondered why I was not able to look after my guys like I should have? Then? Clues to 'why?' started flying like arrows after this Semester started! Particularly, when Potter-kun come to me, asking for protection. Start to really learn of scheme-of-Dumbedoro! Try to gather power to himself!"
"We.. wondered.. who the incubus was who raped our daughter! And, how and why." Mrs. Patil swore. "When we heard it was Dumbledor, neither one of us wanted to beleive it.. at first! But? the more we DID think about it, the more sense it made! And? The easier to figure out 'how' it happened! Damn that incubus! He had his own private hunting-preserve!"
"Predators are like that!" Usagi's eyes grew dark. "Shield true-selves from victim's protectors! Gryffendor-Tower helped mask Predator from EVERYONE!"
"Well? Not anymore!" Amelia Katherina Sersphim smiled darkly. "Tower is down, dark-magics of it are gone! Tower MAY be rebuilt? Not with help of Dummadoro demo. Has date with stew-pot!"
"Thought, since Goblins do not eat Succubi," Usagi wondered out loud, "would not eat Incubus?"
"Make exception for Dumbedoro-Thief!" Amelia Katerina Saraphim nodded solemnly. "Aged-bogard DESERVES goblin-fate of thieves!"
"Well? Our children are safe," Mr. Diggory smiled and said, "thanks to you, Ms. Snape! But? We ARE wondering how it all happened?"
"Goblin-tachi say it is because I did not die!" Amelia Katherina explained. "That Tomoe Hotaru-chan was able to bring me back through magic of friendship! Hai."
Usagi took hold of Amelia Katherina's hand and squeezed it gently, and Ami Kat softly blushed and smiled in response.
"Anyway!" Ami continued, "When Cedri-kun ano Parvati-chan came back, spirits found out their bodies were still too weak to accept them! So? Sensing that I - somehow - survived the same attack, their spirits came into me for shelter! So, in a way, did Padme's. Once their bodies were able to house their spirits, again, they still saw me as sarrogate-mother! And, I .. guess? While in my protection.. they.. bound? to each other? As man, and wife - and wife?" Ami Kat then Kowtowed to the Diggorys and Patils:
"Gomennissai.. If that.. bothers you?"
"It does not bother us, Miss Snape!" Mrs. Diggory and Mrs. Patil smiled and bowed in respect to Amelia Katherina Seraphim. "We just wished to know the how and the why of it. Just, please - from two mothers to another - watch over them? They are still our children, but? They are, also, your children, now?"
Amelia Katherina Seraphim Snape-Mizuno blushed and smiled at her new responsibility. "I will, my ladies!"
"Ara.. Usagi-Hime!" Naru knealt and kowtowed to Usagi. "Gomennissai! I forgot to give you these trinkets to give to Diggory-Sama! Kaasan was able to finish collars for Diggory-Sama and Petils! Hai! Lapis and amber! Kaasan thought lapis ano amber were best stones to use!"
"Hai!" Usagi's face lit up. "Beautiful!" She then passed the thin, elegant collars to Ami Kat. "Cedric and Parvati and Padme are yours to guide, My Amelia! Teach them well!"
"Hai, my Mistress!" Ami bowed and kissed Usagi's wrists as she accepted the collars. "As you command."
And, Cedric and the Patils dutifully bowed their heads.
"Diggory Cedric-San? Patil Parvati? Patil Pedme?" Ami's birdcall-voice sang out with authority as she carefully clasped a collar around each neck. "In accepting these collars, you not only bind yourselves to each other? But, also? To me!"
"Yes, my Goddess!" Cedric, Parvati, and Padme smiled and spoke in unison.
"Very regal!" Mrs. Diggory smiled at Ami and Usagi.
"Truly a transfer-of-power!" Mrs. Patil Smiled and nodded.
As Usagi was about to join her parents, again, Makoto came over to the Snapes and, bowing, asked for she and Ami to join her:
"Lovegood Xeno-Sama ano Grangers wish to talk to Harry, Potters wish to talk to Harry, Harry wishes to speak to you! Think having Ami-chan come with us may help calm you!"
Usagi looked at the third blanket:
"Minako-chan ano Hino-tachi are there?"
"Hai!" Makoto giggled. "To.. talk.. to Luna-chan?"
"We..", Usagi breathed in a thought, "will come! Let me reassure parents ano Shin I will be back! You have spoken to Hermi-chan?"
"Hai!" Makoto snapped a salute to Usagi. "We talked, Your Highness!"
Soon, after apologizing to her family for the delay - and being reassured her family understood the delay - Usagi, shadowed by Amelia Katherina Saraphim, bowed respectfully to the Grangers and to Xenophilius Lovegood. Then, she turned to Harry:
"So? You know what you helped bring about?" She looked sternly at Harry.
"I do, my Liege!" The young man responded.
"You DO know that you helped bring, at least, two children into this world?" Usagi asked Harry.
"Yes, Madame Tsukino!" Harry affirmed.
"Then, you know you have, at least, four spirits to guide, not just your own?" Usagi asked Harry, staring deeply into his eyes.
"I do!" Harry stood up straight and answered Usagi.
Usagi smiled, reading Harry and knowing to he had given the truest answers he could. "You will treat Lovegood Luna-chan exactly as you treat Granger Hermi-chan?"
"Yes, my Goddess!" Harry then turned to smile warmly at his future-wives. "I will! I promise!"
And, Amelia Katherina Saraphim Snape-Mizuno and Kino Makoto smiled and nodded at Usagi, having seen - once again - the Queen she would one day be.
And, Amelia Katherina Saraphim Shape-Mizuno watched her Owner with puppy-dog eyes and slightly-wobbling legs!
Usagi, then, nodded to Harry, who freely answered his parents questions, the Grangers' questions, and Xenophilius' questions. Xeno's questions to Harry were interspersed with questions to Minako and Rei, and questions to and from Rei's father and grandfather, and from Kumada Yuuichirou! The whole scene - thanks to Xenophilius - seemed rather animated!
After the interrogations were over, Usagi bowed and returned to her family. And, after a report to the Tsukinos about the parts of the conversations that they could not hear, all three blankets came together to enjoy each other's company!
"Ha! Ha ha!" Xenophilius roared with laughter. "Yes yes yes! Part of me EXPECTED this might happen!"
"You did, Mr. Lovegood?" Harry asked his future father-in-law as Luna and Hermoine draped themselves over their future-husband. "Might we know the wherefor and the why of it?"
"Yes, Xeno? Whyso?" Lily Potter asked, suddenly interested in what old Xenophilius had to say.
"Are you sure, my Lily?" James Potter whispered to his wife with a knowing smile. "Are you sure you wish to know the tale?"
"Yes, I do, James." Lily smiled as she accepted a kiss from her husband. "I want to know as much about my future-daughters-in-law as possible."
And, from a nearby-blanket, Petunia Dursley tried to stifle a giggle.
"And, WHAT is that about, dear sister?" Lily turned around and asked Petunia.
"You'll find out, Lil," Petunia smiled into her cup of tea, "soon enough."
"I hope mum just survives the news." A smirking Harry whispered low.
"I expected this," Xenophilius answered, "because my wife admitted to me that she had a crush on a school-friend of hers, before we married! A Miss .. Lily Evans!"
"What? But.. but..?" Lily sputttered. "How? I mean.. I mean.. we weren't even in the same house!?"
"My wife always said she thought you were the smartest and the PRETTIEST witchling in Hogwarts!"
"But..? But..?" Lily continued to sputter and stall. "I.. never knew.. I never saw it. Why didn't I see it?"
"You didn't see it?" Petunia burst into a giggle-fit. "Lily Rose EVANS?! How could you NOT have seen it?! All those times she came over with Sev? And the way she looked at you? God's truth.. the way she looked at you? Reminds me of how Ms. Snape looks to Ms. Tsukino, it does!"
"Cassie.. looked at me.. thought of me.. like..?" Lily mumbled, as Amelia Katherina Saraphim Snape-Mizuno scampered to Usagi and tried to hide her sudden blush!
"Yes, she did!" Xeno sighed and smiled. "And? It doesn't surprise me you never knew, Lily Rose! All Cassiopeia wanted was for you to be happy! That was all that ever mattered to her! She took the news of your murder hard! And? She, for one? Never took Dumbledor's reports of how you were killed to heart. 'Too easy to be believed', she'd say. Anyway? When she saw how you were, with Severus, she decided to stay in the shadows. Quite like the feirie. Even when you parted with Severus, and found James! Or? Did James find you? Either way, he's lucky! Lucky to have found you!"
"Lady Cass.. Cassi.. Cassiopeia.. wanted.. me?" Lily sniffed.
'I still do.. my Lily...' a phantom voice and hum tickled Lily's ear. 'I'm glad you are alive.. hated that that dark-idiot, Dumbledor, almost killed you! Or? Had you killed. I thanked the Lord of Valdemorte for sparing you and James! I DO hope that my little Luna makes a - proper wife - for Harry and Hermoine?'
And Lily gasped as she felt a ghostly tongue tickle the rim and inside of her ear! Then, the redhead heard a ghostly giggle, which tickled her even more!
"That girl was crazy!" Lily giggled. "IS crazy!"
And Xeno, James, Severus, and Saeko smiled in memory and nodded. So did Narcissa, Bellatrix, and Andromeda!
After that, the rest of the afternoon was spent dancing and singing, often to the American music of Amelia Katherina Saraphim's music-player (a muggle-device that, surprisingly, the Deatheaters enjoyed listening to). Some Deatheaters, Tom Riddle, in particular, with an old Spanish guitar, played along with the music. Soon - many would say "too soon" - the picnic and danceing gave way to the rising of the moon, and a need to get back to Hogwarts. Then? A goblin appeared with "Mad-Eye" Moody:
"We are to speak to the Commander of the Goblin-armies, Amelia Katherina Seraphim Snape-Mizuno, Princess-Royal of the Murcurians, and Her Liege, The Princess-Royal Tsukino Usagi of the Lunari!"
"I am Snape-Mizuno, Princess-Royal of the Murcurians!" Ami said as she took Usagi's hand,"And this is Usagi-Royal of the Lunari! What do the Goblins of Brittania and the DMLE of Brittania wish the inform us of?"
Venus, Mars, and Jupiter trembled slightly as they listened intently to the bluenette, taken aback by the change in Ami's demeanor! They searched their memories for the last time they had heard even Sailormercury speak with such self-assurence!
"The Aurors and Barristers and Majisters of the DMLE of Britian are finished with their investigation of The Thief, Dumbledor! And? They have - decided - to place him in the custody of the Goblin-Nation! And? We Goblins have it on good-authority that said Thief has been found and bound for trial. The Thief shall suffer the justice of the Goblin-Nations."
"And, how, may we inquire," Usagi asked in regal-tone and bedecked in the finery of a previous-life, "would the elf-kin handle The Thief's case?"
"The Thief will by brought into the King' Court on the next full moon, chaarged, and searched by elder-Goblin magicks, your Highness! If found guilty? The Thief will be taken quickly to the stew-pot! However? Since your Highness was made part of The Thief's plan? His Majesty will amend our customs to the ensitivies of the Lunari-House."
"Thank you, Guardian!" Usagi bowed. "Your King is most-gracious! I do have.. one concern! Since many tribes have been harmed by The Thief, many deserve to bear witness to his passing! May I suggest.. a larger-arena the the King's Court at Gringott's? The Great Hall of Hogwarts? Per chance?"
"A wise choice, your Highness!" The Goblin grinned, sending a chin up and down the spines of most who saw him. "And, what of the time-of-the-trial?"
Usagi stared at the moon rising above the Salisbury Plain, and grinned as manacingly as the goblin:
"The next full-moon is in three days, O Goblin! I see no problem with holding the trial, then! The pot shall even be seasoned, properly! Add one Black Perseus and one Fudgie Cornelius for flavor! Hai."
"Yes." The goblin chuckled. "Will also leave enough for Werewolves and Vampyri! Thank you, your Highness!"
The goblin bowed, and Rei, Makoto, and Minako shivered!
"Our Liege is crazy!" Rei gasped.
"As a fox!" Amelia Katherina Seraphim giggled lightly. "I do hope Dummadoro-baka has - enjoyed - his life?"
